Developers want date for extra stamp duty to end
Related topics
Developers want more exemptions and an end date to the additional stamp duty introduced by the government two months ago as a weapon against property speculation.
'We understand the introduction of extraordinary measures in usual times. But when the situation gets back to normal, the special stamp duty should be scrapped, and therefore we suggest putting a sunset clause in the bill,' Louis Loong, secretary general of the Real Estate Developers Association (Reda), said yesterday as legislators met interested parties about the new levy.
'For example, it should become ineffective after 12 months, or the Legislative Council should review such a policy after a period of time - this is very important,' Loong said.
In November, the government announced an additional stamp duty of between 5 per cent and 15 per cent on residential apartments resold within two years in a bid to curb speculation.
Loong said the policy hurt unintended targets, including some homeowners who needed to resell their flats because of economic difficulties.
The government should exempt these people from the additional levy, he said.
The Hong Kong Institute of Real Estate Administrators joined the criticism at the bills committee meeting. It suggested scrapping the stamp duty in two years.
But Deputy Secretary for Transport and Housing Annette Lee Lai-yee said it was impractical to add a sunset clause because the government could not forecast when the market situation would change, but could make adjustments when needed. She said too many exemptions and an appeal system would limit the effectiveness of the measure.
Separately, Reda ruled that the row involving William Kwok Tsz-wai, director of Cheung Kong (Holdings), who allegedly made misleading remarks about the new stamp duty, arose from differing interpretations by developers and the government of the definition of a preliminary sale and a purchase agreement.
The association said it was unable to resolve the issue and had reported this to the government.
The investigation came after Kwok posted comments on his blog in November urging buyers to be quick to speculate in apartments of the company's Tai Wai project, which he said were not affected by the new levy that was going into effect the next day.
However, the Transport and Housing Bureau said imposition of the extra duty would depend on when a formal sales and purchase agreement was signed and stamped. It then asked Reda to look into the issue.

Juliette man defends home from invasion - Local & State - Macon
Juliette man defends home from invasion
By Ashley Tusan Joyner - firstname.lastname@example.com Buzz up!
JULIETTE Marvin Bowdoin was sitting at his desk when the cat bandit kicked in his kitchen door Tuesday night, he said.
It was shortly after 9 p.m.
The 67-year-old Juliette grocer said he and his wife arrived at their residence on Juliette Road just in time to watch the last 30 minutes of American Idol. It had been a late closing at the familys general merchandise store, Bowdoins Grocery.
The husband and wife finished the TV show. Then he left her in the den, walked down the hall to his office and started to sort through the days business receipts.
She hadnt made supper but she stayed in that room for some reason, Bowdoin said Wednesday from his popular Juliette store, known for fishing tackle and tender cuts of beef.
When I sat down, I heard that door crash open for some reason and I knew someone was in the house.
Bowdoin said within seconds the intruder had gone from the kitchen to the dining room and nearly to the foyer with a shotgun in hand.
Thats where Bowdoin stopped the bandit firing two shots from his .22 Magnum revolver.
I tried to do my best to protect my family, he said.
This weapon was in my pocket. I tote a weapon every day of my life. Its never away from me at any point. Its some mean folks out there.
The invader, not injured, fell to the floor before standing up and running back into the kitchen and out of the home. Bowdoin didnt chase the person or keep firing.
Dressed head to toe in dark clothing, Bowdoin said he couldnt tell a thing about the persons appearance. They exchanged no words.
Im guessing it was a he, and he was short, Bowdoin said.
The neighborhood grocer said had he used one of his three other firearms, he might have made a more precise shot.
Im just glad me and my wife are alive, he said.
Bowdoins wife, Linda, stayed in the den during the incident.
She was still sitting there after. She knew someone was in the house. It frightened her so badly, he said.
Monroe County sheriffs deputies continue to investigate the home invasion.
Investigators searched the area with the help of Georgia Department of Corrections K-9 units and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
I spent my time out there this morning looking for cigarette butts and other small pieces of evidence, said Monroe sheriffs Sgt. Brad Christensen, a crime scene investigator, on Wednesday.
He said there was no evidence that the intruder discharged the shotgun.
Authorities are encouraging people in the area to lock their doors and secure their vehicles as they stay alert and look for suspicious activity.
The neighborhood is in southern Monroe County near Ga. 87, about 10 miles from Bibb County and 11 miles from Forsyth.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Monroe County Sheriffs Office at (478) 994-5267.

I'm new to this forum, and have a Mossberg 12 ga 500 pump. I've added a Blackhawk specops stock and a sling thus far. I want to add either a red dot scope or a laser sight so that my wife will be able to hit something should something happen. What do you think would be the best option? I'd like to keep the cost around $100.
You aren't going to get much either way for that price.
"I'm set up to play a game right now. However, I doubt most people would want to get into a gun fight with me."
Rob Leatham
Mike is right, you could MAYBE get a cheap laser for that price, but that's about it. I'd save up more and get quality.
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable- JFK
If you're talking long distance, a red dot is the way to go. If you're talking up close, low light conditions, that's where a laser shines, no pun intended. You're not going to get much for $100.
Kill two birds with one stone by adding a light AND a laser with a Streamlight TLR-2. Not going to fit into your $100, though.
Welcome to the forum or your first post whichever it may be.
Guys are pretty much right thus far. $100 won't go far. Spec ops stock and sling? For the wife and HD.......why? You could have saved that money for the light/laser combo and some reduced recoil buckshot from TDSUS.
IMO.........Red Dot sights require bringing to shoulder and sighting. HD shotgun should be able to be deployed from the hip or several positions other than from the shoulder. Mainly from covering a doorway in a safe room, or the hallway or possibly the front door. A bright light is key. If it's a focused beam light and at night.....you won't need a laser or a red dot IMO. In broad daylight you shouldn't need much more than ammo and a forward stance. Forget the red dot, forget the sling, and put the wood stock back on it. Train your lady well for the home scenario...the way you would train yourself. Better investment of your time and like I say...money for reduced recoil loads. Teach her not to put the shotgun to shoulder if her back is to the wall, and especially get that tac light where she won't be taking a shot at you if you come home after midnight! You can sell the sling and stock on EBay and get something more useful. Thinking about your wife, I say cool down on the tactical stuff and you'll both be looking down the same barrel. It is possible that you can overdue things to the point it becomes detrimental to the total home security plan. Personally, I think you're on the wrong path right now. Home defense plans with two in the house means teamwork. Many times we do what's right for the rest of the team other than telling the rest of the team what they have to deal with or giving them tools they are unfamiliar with and asking them to be adept with them. Thinking for ourselves is rather easy. Thinking of the team involves more strategy and weighing the strengths and weaknesses of all team members. The basics couldn't be easier....it's just difficult for us to understand at times especially when we place ourselves before the team. I wish you and yours the best.
Had a lower-priced red dot sight, once. It wouldn't hold zero effectively. Ditto on the suggestions to hold out for the highest quality you can support for your application and budget. If you do go the low-price route, I'd recommend trying out a couple of them prior to purchase, if you can find someone with that model or if the shop/range has one with that sight.
Good luck.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
Primary Arms you can get a red dot for under a hundred and it will hold up just fine. I have one on my AR that has been perfect now for close to a year and my buddy has 2, one his Springfield M1A SOCOM in 308 and the other on a 12ga Remington 1100 tactical. His are holding up just fine.
Current collection: Too many according to the wife...
I don't see why you would need either one on this gun. Unless you wanted to shoot targets at a distance. I would simply make sure she practices with the gun.
Pain is the best teacher,but nobody wants to go to his class.
When the past smothers the present, there is only desperation. When the future absorbs the present, life stands still. In either case a decision must be made because you only live now and you are only what you are now.

Low Turnout and Few Challenges in NJ Primary Vote
This election cycle, all of New Jersey's 80 Assembly and 40 Senate seats are at stake. And though the primary election that decides who gets to run for these seats is Tuesday, just 15 percent of the races are contested.
Policy analyst Ingrid Reed, recently retired from the Eagleton Institute, says despite the importance of the election, turnout is expected to be low because there are no statewide races on the ballot.
"If people win a primary race in New Jersey," Reed says, "they probably won't have trouble getting elected to the Assembly or the Senate because most of our districts are really not competitive in the general election."
Reed says a handful of veteran incumbents are facing spirited primary challenges, including long time Union County Democratic State Senator Ray Lesniak and Morris County State senator Tony Bucco.
Reed says Lesniak's Democratic intra-party fued is the most interesting because across the country, the Republican Party and its Tea Party faction that have captured media attention.
"This is unusual because Lesniak's well-organized opponents are saying he's not Democratic enough," says Reed.
As Star Ledger columnist Bob Braun laid out Sunday, "Democrats for Change" are really fuming over Lesniak's embrace of vouchers to subsidize kids from under-achieving public school districts to attend standout private schools.
With the support of NJEA, the state's teacher unions, the faction is running Jerome Dunn, an assistant school superitendent from Elizabeth. It was the core of this same insurgent Democratic faction that in 2009 actually broke with state Democrats crossing over to endorse Christie for Governor.
Tuesday's primary marks the first time voters will be selecting candidates based on the new state district map that tries to incorporate the trends picked up by the 2010 Census. The Census documented a substantial increase in the Hispanic population and a shift of the state's population concentration from north to the south.
Still, the new map and district boundaries left most incumbents feeling pretty invincible. Of the 40 senate incumbents, 36 are running for re-election and only five of those facing a primary challenge.
In the Assembly, 64 out of 80 incumbents are running for reelection, although they'll have to introduce themselves to thousands of new voters who were added into the district.
New Jersey does not have an open primary.
"You can declare for a party when you show up at the polls" if you have not voted in a primary before says Reed. "But if you voted in the Republican or Democratic primary in the past and have not changed your registration, you can only vote for someone in the party where you voted before."

It was my first time going to the spot, but we knew each other well through our friend the VX1000. The rail lives in the middle of Beverly Hills, just down the road from Eddie Murphy's police station in Beverly Hills Cop. It felt like we would get kicked out immediately because there are plenty of expensive houses that look out onto the rail and it was really quiet in the neighborhood. It's pretty amazing that someone had the courage to cut the knobs off and I'd like to say thank you to whoever that person is. The building in the background plays recordings of predatory birds from Costa Rica when movement sensors are triggered by crows. It's cheaper, more effective and not as unsightly as putting spikes on every window ledge and wall. It's an avian audio skate stopper. Anyway, in this frame, Paul is listening to recordings of bald eagles attacking prey, so now you know what he really bumps in his iPod. Paul switch back noseblunt slid the rail in the most rude-boy fashion possible, and Heath Brinkley chose the VX1000 with a Century fisheye to film it with. You can check out the footage of this trick and another six minutes and ten seconds of carnage in Paul's video part Paul Rodriguez, Me, Myself and I under Plan B Skateboards on iTunes.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Sept. 16, 2014) — Dane Stangler, Kauffman Foundation vice president of Research & Policy, discusses four persistent myths about entrepreneurship in the latest installment of the Kauffman Sketchbook video series released today by the Kauffman Foundation.
"There are several areas in which I think our research and the research of those we fund has been making headway in, if not disproving, at least pushing back against conventional wisdom or what turn out to be myths," Stangler says in the three-minute animated video.
"Myth-busting Entrepreneurship," notes four commonly held beliefs and attempts to set the record straight.
Stangler concludes by acknowledging the importance of harvesting more research to uncover myths and propose constructive alternatives.
About the Kauffman Sketchbook Video Series
Since the Kauffman Sketchbook series launched in September 2011, the videos featuring the insights of influential thought leaders in the areas of education and entrepreneurship have drawn more than 343,800 viewers to YouTube and kauffman.org. The Sketchbooks, which won a top award from the Greater Kansas City Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America, have been widely shared on a variety of websites, blogs and social media outlets, as well as at numerous events and conferences.

Trying to find our where the location of the motor mounts are on my ford e150 ecnolive van
Is there any diagram for the transmission i know that probably sounds weird but i want to know what it suppose to look like after i take the pan off!!! Any help or advise would be much appreciated!
will the coil work and be running bad at high speeds
I just bought this van and it ran fine for a Very short time. Now it keeps jerking jumping like it is missing spark or wants to stall, but it never stalls Ferels like I am going down a bumpy road in a way. It is very annoying and I am worried it will just get worse. Any easy fixes or is this something major? My engine light pops on and off, but never stays on for more than a minute or so. Also my airbag light flashes on and off. To top it off, the factory installed alarm will go off by itself with no "outside" help.
my van runs great in cool weather but sputters and boggs , runs very slow in hot weather,but when the nite temp cools we can bring it home . can't seem to fix the problem .we have changed the fuel filter and a sensor i'm not sure which one
how can I fix this
my ford van when driving down the road at high way speed,it will jerk in and out like its cutting out,it doesnt do it steady just every few minutes it will act up,then go back to running perfect,and when idling you can feel it kinda cutting out,feels like it quits getting gas for a second,or aint getting enough. fuel pump is working fine you can hear it.when you turn ignition on or if you crawl underneath. could it be fuel filter partially plugged,just bought van few days ago,runs and shifts great except for this issue,motor is the 5.8 thanks
after setting over night, or30 minutes
I recently bought a 1992 Ford E-150 Conversion van. I replaced the serpentine belt and the air pump and gave it a tune-up. The van was overheating so I also replaced the thermostat, hoses, and radiator. Right after replacing the radiator, the temperature gauge on the instrument panel stopped working. I can't tell if the van is running hot and I am not sure why it stopped working? Can anyone help with my next move?
i have replaced the engine with a 302 out of a Lincoln that's all I know about the car it came out of. Swapped all stuff from engine to the other. NOW,@#$%^&^&$. when it warms up, and when you come to a stop or it is idling (after being warm) it changes from a regular idle to a rough running all most wants to die (but does not) shakes, needles on the dashboard wig out, If I step on the gas and rev it a little it quits for a while, but dose it again a few minute Later and on and on. Also, when driving it has a little trouble shifting from 2nd to drive. @$%#%^$%^%&, I HAVE REPLACED:
Spark plugs
Spark plug wires
Airs throttle control motor???
Timing chain
Cleaned the injectors
New map sensor
O2 sensor
Smoke test for vacuum for leaks (one found) fixed, no change.
Spayed carb cleaner all over to see if I could find any other leaks, (none found)
I Did the do it your self-test with a 4" wire to get the on board computer to kick out the problem codes by counting the number of blinks from the check engine light, i got a 114, 116 told me nothing!
Full tank of high octane gas just for kicks nothing.
The Ford dealership in my home town said they didn't have the diagnostics computer/equipment to go far/deep enough into the engine to diagnose the problem, and referred me to another bigger ford store.
They also, forgot to put the EGR line back on, causing the check engine light to come on freak me out. They said wasn't anything they did, and sent me down the road.
5**** F-I-V-E**** mechanics have looked at this van. Yet the dam van is still STILLLLL! not running right!!!! I do not know what to do. Similar problem have been discuss on line and in forums but no one will say what they did to fix the problem. It's just the problem, or they want money for an answer that may or may not work, $48 flippen dollars for a maybe is too much after all I have spent. Though I'm still ahead $150, for the van $350, for engine and about, and $600ish for the list above. Though I'm coming to my limit. Has anyone experience this problem or silemer problem, what about the on board computer, should I replace It I can get an aftermarket for about $200. Where do I go from here? Thank you for reading.

Two worlds collide in new Carhart novel
By Ed Stoddard
DALLAS (Reuters Life!) - Writer Thad Carhart found the real-life story of Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau so riveting and improbable that he wrote a novel about it.
"Across the Endless River," is set in the vastly different worlds Charbonneau inhabited -- the rough and ready U.S. frontier of the early 19th century and an aristocratic Europe recovering from Napoleon's wars.
Charbonneau was born in 1805 on the famous "Lewis and Clarke expedition" of the American west. His native American mother, Sacagawea, and his French Canadian father were translators on the expedition.
His mother carried him on her back across America with the explorers. He grew up with one foot in the "white man's" world in St. Louis and the other with the native tribes.
As a young man he met a German aristocrat and enthusiast of natural history who asked Charbonneau to accompany him to Europe to help him sort out his collection of wild animal specimens and native artifacts.
Little is known about Charbonneau's five years in Europe -- a gap in the historical record that provided Carhart with an opportunity to fashion this fictional account. He imagines how Europe would have looked through the eyes of a young man from the American wilderness.
Carhart, a dual citizen of Ireland and the United States, lives in Paris and is the also author of "The Piano Shop on the Left Bank." He spoke to Reuters about his new book.
Q: This novel is based on real historical characters. Would you describe it as a work of "faction"? Continued...

The Financial Services Authority's side-step comes with markets in freefall. The FTSE 100 index has plunged nearly 20% to 4275 in the past two months.
Last October, with the index at around 5200, FSA managing director John Tiner told a Treasury Select Committee a fall in the FTSE 100 below 4,500 points would raise concerns of 'systemic risk'. In other words, the number of split cap failures could be enough to bring the whole sector crashing down like a house of cards.
Facing the same Treasury committee on Thursday, Tiner said there were no longer any 'systemic' dangers.
He later told This is Money that this time he meant a risk of bringing the whole UK financial system to its knees rather than the split cap sector.
'I was asked in October where the systemic risk would be for the sector and I said it was 4,500,' he said. 'Having now analysed the splits in more depth we believe the risk level is lower than that.'
He declined to put an exact figure on the danger level despite months of investigation into the sector.
Split caps are investment companies that offer different types of shares and zeros, which are meant to offer lower returns in exchange for added security. Investment houses attracted around 60,000 investors to zeros, with many buying into these 'safe' investments to pay for school fees or retirement.
Now, thanks to the way these split caps were invested, as many as 20 are on the verge of collapse, threatening the loss of all investors' money.
In an effort to push returns higher managers borrowed heavily. It worked with a rising market, but the 40% plunge in the Footsie in the past two years also amplified losses. To add to the misery, risks were increased by managers investing in other split cap shares, which again magnified losses. The FSA is investigating whether a 'magic circle' of managers colluded to buy each other's shares.
Aberdeen Asset Management, one of the biggest zero providers, was also hauled in front of the Treasury committee. It said the failure of the sector was a result of the falling stock market. Committee member James Plaskitt MP said any such claim from the industry was 'patently untrue'. Click here for more.
Daniel Godfrey, chairman of the Association of Investment Trust Companies, admitted that between 10 and 20 split caps out of 136 will pay back nothing to investors.
A handful of split caps are in the throes of persuading banks not to call in debts. Around £4bn is owed: £2bn to Royal Bank of Scotland and HBOS alone. Britannic Global Income and Media and Income this week joined the growing list of trusts to begin negotiations.
And BC Income & Growth has just announced it is to be liquidated and broken up. Most of its £26m assets will be gobbled up by £24m it owes to RBS. Banks take priority over investors.
The FSA has previously criticised the marketing of zeros, with one investment house saying they had 'more safety features than a Volvo' and another claiming they came to the fore in a falling or flat stock market.
Other big providers of zeros include BFS, Exeter and Friends, Ivory & Sime.

Most people like a good cup of tea, or maybe a strong mug of coffee to keep there brain alive for a few hours more, just to get them through the day.
Well, I'm one of those people who like both tea and coffee and, even if I do say so myself, I can make a good cup of tea that not only refreshes but tastes nice as well.
One thing that is needed to make a cup of hot tea, or coffee, is a good kettle so that you can have that refreshing brew more or less on tap, so to speak.
Sadly though my love of tea, and coffee, has led to me having gone through more kettles than I care to imagine, seeming to break them by just staring at them the wrong way... and the same goes for toasters too, but don't get me started on that as we'd be here all day.
Anyway, quickly back to kettles. As I said, I have had the pleasure, or misfortune, to have had to buy a lot of kettle during my tea loving life. Some of them being cheap and cheerful whilst others have cost almost as much as a share in the Nescafe company itself.
One kettle that I used for a while, I can't remember how long but if I recall correctly it was a good 14 months, which for me is not too bad at all. But once it started to fail it failed fast. Anyway, the kettle that I am talking about, and is now sadly in the great big small kitchen appliance heaven in the sky, is form a very well known company called Kenwood, with this kettle itself being called the Kenwood SJM100, (which is not to be confused with others of similar numbers for the name).
Firstly, for those that have a fashionable kitchen and want to know if it will fit into your professionally designed kitchen, let me tell you what it looks like...
It's a standard looking kettle with a metal body that stands tall at about 160mm high, and having a diameter of about 220mm, although the spout does stick out a further 20mm.
The entire kettle weighs in at a good solid 1.25kg, when it is empty of course, so it's not too heavy to pick up yet it's not too light to blow over in the wind.
The metal finish itself has a dull effect look to it, with a black handle and a black bottom which then sits on a black base.
As any other kettle this one has the lid on the top being held in place by a hinge system which bounces up on the flick, or more the press of a button, which is on the top of the handle.
The handle itself is a good size, catering for the larger hands out there. Next to the handle, slightly to the left as you stare admiringly at the handle, there is a lovely clear plastic water level guide which has cup levels etched up the side, giving a rough indication as to how much water you've actually put into the kettle itself.
Underneath the handle there is the all important 'trigger' switch, or more the on switch, which is a good size piece of solid plastic that slides up and down with ease, and glows a lovely blue colour when it is switched on.
As for the inside. The drum, or kettle, or container, or what ever you want to call it, this can hold 1.6 litres of water and has a neat looking water filter covering the area where the water will come out through the nicely shaped spout. The spout itself is designed to pour the right amount of water out at one time as long as you don't tilt the kettle too far forwards. Sending hot steaming water all over the place, which can be dangerous without a doubt.
The kettle sits on a round base, which allows the unit to spin around a full 360° so there's no danger of catching wires and possibly tipping the kettle over. Then, to aid in hiding the cable away, shortening it so that it's just long enough to go from the plug socket to the base, there are three lovely 'arms' on the underside of the base so that the cable can be wound around them in order to keep it neat and tidy, whilst only having the right amount out.
And that's the kettle and what it looks like. There are other versions but this is the SJM100.
Are there any special features..?
Well, it's a kettle so you'd don't really expect that many special features, but it does have a couple.
It offers an Eco feature, which means that it can boil a single cup of water for a single brew, although many kettle I have used offers this facility as the element on the bottom are all concealed, as is this one, so that the smallest amount of water will be heated evenly.
To stop any chance of boiling nothing but air, in case you forget to put water into the kettle, there is a boil dry safety feature which automatically switches the kettle off when the water drops below a certain level.
It has rapid boil action, although I have seen quicker. But then again, I have seen slower too.
The filter is easily removes, pulling it out of the top, and is simply washed under a running tap.
What about filling it up..?
You can either pour water into the kettle via the spout as it is wide enough to accommodate your average tap, plus, doing it this way the filter can help filter any 'stuff' from the water and stop in going into the kettle, hence the name 'filter'.
I actually prefer to pop the lid open and fill the kettle that way as it's a lot quicker and save splashing water all over the place. The way I see it is that the filter will work when I'm pouring the water out once it has boiled.
My opinion...
Kettles. Kettles. Kettles. And toasters, mixers, in fact most small kitchen items that I tend to use quite often, just don't seem to like me. I don't know why. Maybe it's the fact that I over work them? Or maybe I've got an electro field surrounding me that makes all small electrical devices break down as soon as the warranty has run out.
And this kettle was no exceptions. I think it lasted a few weeks longer than the warranty, which is not too bad in my kitchen.
But whilst it did work it actually did work quite well. Nice and fast without taking up that much room on the worktops. And as the kettle could spin happily on the base it could be picked up from any direction.
It stood tall and, with it's lovely dull metal finish, it didn't look out of place at all in my kitchen against the black tiles and slightly lighter black, speckled with white bits in it worktops.
The on/off switch is nicely placed at the bottom and is smooth to flick down with my thumb, making clicking it on a breeze.
The handle is a great size and, even though it is hollow, it feels solid in the grip so I don't have the sudden scare that it's going to fall apart and drop boiling water all over the dog, again... (only kidding, honest, it was the wife not the dog, so that's alright then??).
The rapid boil is not too bad, in fact, call me Mr Sad-man, (I've been called much worse, usually by my boss), but I did a timing test. A kettle full of cold water from the tap took just over two minutes to boil and switch off,
Times did vary slightly as for some reason the automatic switch off took different times as the water began to boil, at one point it took that long to switch off that I thought the kettle full of water was going to evaporate
The filter is simple to take out, as long as you remember to let the water cool before touching anything at all as you will scold yourself, and believe me, it hurts a wee bit.
But once the filter is pulled out I run it under a tap, maybe a bit of a brush over with a soft brush, or even a lime scale remover treatment, although that is not something I do on a regular basis as I find that the taste of the water is a little 'dodgy' for while. Then I simply slide the filter back into place using the notches as a guide so that it fits in correctly and helps cut the kettle off when it boils.
And speaking of 'dodgy' tastes. As with all new kettles this one did have the usual 'tinny' taste for a few boils, which I almost got used to. But that taste did subside over time, which was nice.
What more can I say about what is really a kettle?
Not a lot really, apart from the fact that it does exactly what it is designed to do, boil water so you can have a brew.
So what about the price then..?
This kettle is quite pricey, for a kettle that is, as it sells for nearly £40.00, which is double what I like to pay these days as me and kettles just never get on.
Would I recommend this kettle then?
If it is on sale for about £25.00 then go for it, you won't be too disappointed as it should last a while, possibly longer than it lasted me anyway. Sadly if it is priced higher than that then I'd say look elsewhere as you may find a better kettle.
So, if you want a nice cup of tea or coffee, firstly, don't go to Mc Donalds as theirs taste like dirty dishwater that a rat has bathed in with his friends on a Friday night out in Soho. Instead, make you own using this kettle to quickly boil the water that you need.
Simples... (makes a sound like a meerkat.... Or is that copyright yet?)

I purchased this kettle during the Christmas Sales, as I had a 3 litre kettle which although extremely hard to find, it was noisy and slow to boil.
What attracted me most to this kettle, was in the shop at the time, there was a metalic colour of a light copper shade, with a tinge of cream.
The sales lady had recommended this kettle to me, when I asked her for a quiet kettle.I must admit that this was completely untrue and the kettle is very loud-something which I strongly advise you take into consideration before purchasing.
It has 3 kW which tells you how fast the kettle boils.3kW is excellent for boiling a 1.6/7 litre kettle, and it is the fastest kettle to boil that I have ever had.
It has a large handle which allows free movement and a large spout, which allows easy pouring.
The pointer to turn on the kettle, flicks with ease and lights up a bright blue, which compliments the colour, and changes it from a classic style and gives it a sophisticated modern twist.
The lid is attatched to the side of the kettle so to open the kettle (In order to fill with water) you gentle press down a black button!I really love this quirke, as you don't have to pull off a lid and have your face steamed!!
Ontop of the kettle, ther is a circular black spot, which does not heat, and allows you to push down the lid, without burning your finger, which is an added safety feature that is much appreciated.This definetley saved my fingers many a time I can assure you!

Are Inter teetering on the brink of downfall?
"Where would we be without Strama," Inter fans chorused in praise of coach Andrea Stramaccioni as they put an end to Juventus' 49-game unbeaten streak, in Turin no less. Fast forward little over three months later, and such songs of praise might just have taken on a perverse turn, as Inter slumped to their seventh defeat in Serie A on Sunday.
The 3-1 humbling at the hands of bottom-placed Siena dampened renewed optimism following yet another intriguing transfer market. Inter offloaded forgotten misfit Philippe Coutinho, and immediately reinvested funds in Dinamo Zagreb's Mateo Kovacic, another promiscuously talented teen sensation. Meanwhile, Ezequiel Schelotto and Zdravko Kuzmanovic arrived in shrewd transfer deals that ensure a sense of longevity lingers around this increasingly youthful outfit.
Nevertheless, that re-injection of hunger and conviction the management at Appiano Gentile were so fervently seeking from their newest acquisitions deserted them at the weekend, and despite promising debuts, one feels the club will have to do more than merely turn to their new signings in a bid to introduce greater impetus, on the way to securing Champions League qualification come season's end.
Indeed, it would matter little that Inter procured such promising additions, should they continue being undone by their underlying deficits day in and day out. In how long Stramaccioni takes to acquaint himself once more with the same degree of improvisation and resourcefulness that led to himself being compared to Jose Mourinho earlier this campaign lies the key to defining his fortunes in the Nerazzurri dugout. That the 37-year-old has not yet already recognised the fundamental pitfalls in the way his side line up on the pitch despite witnessing multiple slip-ups suggests a glaring lack of clairvoyance in forging a balance between his men's technical capabilities, and his team's tactical needs.
Esteban Cambiasso might remain one of Inter's outstanding arrivals during Massimo Moratti's reign at the Milan giants, but while his performances have consistently identified him as the cornerstone of the Inter engine room, the Argentine's admirable utility should not extend to that of a playmaker role, for which he remains principally unsuited for.
Similarly, praise Fredy Guarin's lauded contributions in his coach's interpretation of the trequartista position as you will, but that alone cannot disguise that he is a fundamentally flawed player to all intents and purposes, with attacking foray after foray breaking down at his feet as the result of an ill-advised shot or dribble.
It's still unclear whether Kovacic could proffer an immediate answer to the lack of graft plaguing his new team at the centre of play. Precocious yet inexperienced and untested at the very top, weighty expectations threaten to undermine the 18-year-old's explosive potential. Identified as one for the future, the decision to thrust him in at the deep end by burdening him with undue responsibility bears caution, and yet it appears increasingly unlikely that such trivialities will be actively considered in the desperate times that surround the club.
As players and coaching staff alike bite the bullet, how much more forgiveness can a beleaguered Stramaccioni bestow on stoppers Andrea Ranocchia and Cristian Chivu when things come to a crunch, the way they continue to provide unworthy support for Juan Jesus at the back? For every goal the revelatory Rodrigo Palacio nestles into the back of the net at the other end, the cumbersome pair conspire to doom their team-mate's mighty efforts by producing laughable attempts at defending bordering on the amateurish. Should a summer clear-out grow to fruition – and that too is looking ever more likely – it would be come as no surprise that the inept duo lead the exodus out of San Siro.
Just as they ought to be breaking towards the upper echelons of Serie A, they flatter to deceive and falter instead. Still, the quality of the players themselves cannot be the sole cause of the awful form displayed lately, when indeed there remain other quality options that reside within. Despite an imperfect state of affairs, sufficient depth exists within to gift the man in charge viable, quality alternatives – options that might prove invaluable to overturning the challenge at hand. With several tweaks and more careful management of her assets, the club could yet bear resemblance to the machine that swept all before her in late October of the previous year.
The secrets to unlocking eventual success certainly lies within the team's abilities, but the squad must first pull out all the stops if it is to succeed in taking its feet off the brakes, as the crucial part of the season beckons. Time and patience might be necessary if the exuberant spring in this Inter batch is to explode into bristling, world-class potential, but immediate results are discarded at one's own peril, especially considering Moratti's associated lack of tolerance for failure.
With a squad now outfitted to adapt to two or three different formations, Inter now retain a decently capable team the likes of Gian Piero Gasperini and Rafael Benitez would have killed for to turn it all around. Of the coaches which have succeeded Mourinho, Stramaccioni indeed remains the most lavishly equipped and supported by the hierarchies that be. Failure to seize the opportunities falling into his lap with both hands would be viewed as a severe blot to the young Italian's copybook. The next few months of spring now threaten to make-or-break the career of one of Serie A's most prominent budding tacticians.

The waiters, servers, and all staff in the Pinnacle Grill are very polished and attentive. They do it right, every moment of your dinner is an excellent experience and believe me it was. If you have the chance I would check out the Pinnacle Grill, if you have the budget it is worth it !!
Marc the Bartender at Lido Pool Bar was truly professional and great person.
My observations about the Noordam: The crew on the Noordam was highly trained, and they are continually are having Safety Drills when docked.
Cleanliness, and Health & Safety is Priority One they are unbelievable. I can not express how attentive they are and how quickly they attempt to assist you.
I am a good tipper,they are very nice polite about Tipping there is a Standard Tipping fee that each person pays over the course of the cruise, I was sure to add to that because of the totally amazing service.
We rented local Taxi's and did our own tours, Dubrovnik: first time there shocked how beautiful it is, Corfu: was there twice 35 years ago Pelekas Beach wonderful even after 35 years, gorgeous, Katakolon: wonderful, Santorini: Amazing the highlight of the trip the reason we booked this cruise, Kusadasi (Ephesus): Take a ship tour, the Turks are very aggressive leaves women and shoppers uncomfortable, beautiful place, need to tune it down: Athens: been there 3 times wonderful but the first place in Greece the economy is showing Graffiti every where except Tourist Areas; I loved Athens, but the economy and it is hurting and the graffiti need a clean up,
Messina: All excellent.
The Captain I believe is Dutch, the crew is very professional, although I did not meet the Captain, although invited twice. Wanted a quiet relaxing holiday, hot sunshine, tan and enjoy all the sites. The staff is great, never had any issues, little water leak in room, taken care of without incident, the Noordam of Holland America was recommended by AMEX, and was and is a great ship with a great crew I wouldn't hesitate to vacation again with the MS Noordam Word of Mouth.

grand am
have a 98 grand am . wont start the injectors arent working . starter wore out changed that now it wont start not getting fuel threw the injectors fuel pump is working fuses seem good .any ideas would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Check Your Fuel Pressure.should Be About 55 Psi. Won't Start With Less.
if FP is fine then make sure security system isnt preventing start
its a common problme on these years of the achievas and grand amssss
i own one and it was same issue
i snipped the small yellow wire coming from the pass key thingy on the lock cylinder in the column
easy to do, just remove column cover real quick and snip the yellow wire, of the three small wires coming out of the cylinder pass lock thingy
then it will always start and the security light will be lit up all the time but oh well.... put black tape over it
common issue with these cars and others too all through the 90s years
seen it a thousand times....
we spent 400 bucks trying to have the ICM rebuilt which is where the security controller is located in these cars and all to no avail, security system still malfunctioned and prevented starts,
cutting the wire works well, been great for over a year now,
if fuel pressure is good and are injecting fuel(clicking sounds if you listen to them with a stick on your ear on them)and if spark is good then its not the security system.
try cam sensor then
thats next most common failure on these if no start or run
fuel pump is number one
does it run for a few seconds when key is put in run position?
for sure?
if so then id vote for ignition or security issue
if it has remote start system then check wiring and connections
also fuses check them all regardless of what else you try.,
ECM one may be burnt
dumber things happen.....
does the CEL light come on with key in run position but engine not running?
if not then thats not good....
check fuses and wiring and fuseable links

Miguel de Armas and Friends, with Claudia Salguero, Sylvio Módolo, and Juan-Luis Vasquez
The Ironstone Grill, The Marshes Golf Club
Friday, November 18, 2016 – 7:30 p.m.
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
Two well-known local Latin jazz musicians – pianist Miguel de Armas and vocalist Claudia Salguero – performed together for the first time Friday, to an enthusiastic crowd.
In two one-hour sets, they played songs from Brazil, Mexico, and Cuba – and some of their favourite American jazz standards as well. Together with Sylvio Módolo on bass and Juan-Luis Vasquez on percussion, they created a warm, lively vibe which kept almost the entire audience intent and smiling – and singing and clapping along at times as well.
De Armas plays many clubs around Ottawa, as well as concerts here and in other cities with his Latin Jazz Quartet. Since January, he has hosted a regular Friday night series at the The Marshes in Kanata, inviting different Ottawa musicians to perform with him – a wide cross-section of some of the best-known names in Ottawa jazz scene.
Salguero, on the other hand, is best known for the large-scale, sold-out shows she's mounted annually at the National Arts Centre, which feature her singing boleros and other Latin American love songs, backed by a band of local Latin musicians in arrangements created by Módolo.
Friday's show opened with the Antonio Carlos Jobim classic, "The Waters of March", and moved smoothly through a series of songs in Spanish and English, mostly romantic ballads. But there were upbeat numbers, too: "Autumn Leaves" turned into an extended jam, with Salguero's voice swaying over the tight rhythms from piano, bass, and congas, while "Rayito de Luna" was a bright, sunny cha-cha-cha.

Dutch jazz vocalist Ineke Vandoorn and guitarist Marc van Vugt have developed many ties to Canadians in the last 25 years – starting with composer Kenny Wheeler and more recently with guitarist Michael Occhipinti. The duo is touring across Canada this month, including an Ottawa gig on Friday at the Mercury Lounge.
They'll perform their own thoughtful and multi-layered original music – playing with different rhythm sections in each city – and also promote a book Vandoorn has written on the art of jazz singing from a very practical perspective.
Their first experiences of Canada were when they studied at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in 1991 and 1993 – "really a very important thing for us", Vandoorn said. At Banff, they met renowned Canadian trumpeter and composer Kenny Wheeler, "and played his music and we started to be friends".
"It was an honour to work with him. He loved Marc's music and his contributions were spot on. He was a very shy, but also witty man and we laughed a lot."
Then when they were about to make their first CD, "we asked Kenny if he was interested in being our featured guest at the CD – and he wanted to do that, so that's how we got to know him better. So we played with him several times in the Netherlands."
"We always kept in contact and Marc and Kenny discussed sometimes each others compositions and arrangements. Very special. He was also very generous and when he had heard us play he called us afterwards to tell us how much he loved it."
In Banff, Vandoorn also met vocalist Norma Winstone, and "we became friends. At some point I was invited at a festival to do a special project, and I decided to invite her for a vocal duet. We did it twice at different festivals."
In 2012, Vandoorn and van Vugt released a single, "Holysloot", an intimate jazz song inspired by a Dutch lowlands winter scene. She agreed it was influenced by Wheeler and Winstone. "The way Kenny is composing and the way that he is treating harmonies I think that is something that both Marc and I like a lot. And I'm sure a fan of Norma's singing. And yes, you could hear that there."
The duo has toured Canada five times, playing festivals including the Ottawa Jazz Festival in 1998. This will be their first time playing Canadian clubs, however, Vandoorn said. They've spent the last week in southern Ontario, teaching students at masterclasses and clinics (including with Christine Duncan's Element Choir) and playing concerts – and have been very happy with the response.
"I must say that all the Canadian audiences are very receptive for our music. First of all, I think that jazz is quite important in Canada. The people are much more used to listening to jazz, I would say, than maybe in the Netherlands. So we have really nice audiences, very committed. And they really love our music so so far it has been great."

Amy Brandon CD Release of Scavenger, with Roddy Ellias
Metro Music, Ottawa
Saturday, November 12, 2016 – 4 p.m.
Guitarist Amy Brandon released her debut CD, Scavenger, in an hour-long afternoon concert in Ottawa Saturday. The CD mixes jazz, classical, and new music, and features her playing solo and in duos, with guitarists Roddy Ellias and Mike Rud and vocalist Laura Swankey – but also with herself.
Many of the pieces on Scavenger are electro-acoustic, with Brandon playing guitar along with recordings of herself which she had substantially altered with effects. As she explained to the audience at the show, in electro-acoustic music the musician can either manipulate sound live (live-processed) or play against previously-recorded and processed music (fixed media).
She picked fixed media, and for four of the pieces she performed at the show, played sound files on her laptop along with her acoustic guitar. Her warm and resonant guitar-work contrasted with the recorded soundscapes, which were much more varied and unexpected. Sometimes they were dissonant and abrasive and metallic, other times attenuated and whispering and reminding one of birds calling or winds rushing.
The result was immersive and multi-layered, pulsating and almost hypnotic in places. Consistently you could hear how Brandon was responding in the moment to the soundscapes. Throughout the pieces, he audience was still and intent, listening carefully and applauding warmly.
Safe Low Limit
Le Petit Chicago
All Jazz Mondays in November, 2016
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
Safe Low Limit opened its November residency at Le Petit Chicago Monday night – with music extending far into the bass clef.
Trombone: Steve Berndt. Cello: Ken Kanwisher. Tuba: Keith Walton. Drums: Michel Delage. Your standard jazz quartet instrumentation it wasn't.
It was the very first show for the group as a quartet. Kanwisher first started working on these arrangements for a previous group, Berndt said – and then he and Berndt started playing together last spring. They debuted some of this music as a duo at the 24-hour Jazz Ramble in June, and then decided to expand to a quartet.
"Keith Walton saw us and thought it was a cool idea so we decided to ask him if he'd like to join in. That's when we made the decision to go all bass clef instruments, [to] ask Michel Delage if he'd like to get involved and not have a piano or guitar.
They picked the name "Safe Low Limit" because it is "an arranging term that describes a formula that identifies the low point at which harmony ceases to be clear based on the fundamental of a given series of notes played at the same time. It seemed to be the right name for this band!"

Tribute to Cole Porter with Michel Delage, Allison Au, Todd Pentney, and Alex Bilodeau
Options Jazz Lounge, Brookstreet Hotel
Saturday, October 29, 2016 – 8 p.m.
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
Songwriter Cole Porter famously said (quoting one of his teachers) that "Words and music must be so inseparably wedded to each other that they are like one." And yet jazz instrumentalists ranging from Miles Davis to Artie Shaw to Max Roach have had hits with Cole Porter's tunes because, even without Porter's witty lyrics, the melodies are memorable and full of joie de vivre.
Michel Delage's quartet showed off that joy and fun in a dynamic second night of a two-night stand at Brookstreet's Options Jazz Lounge this weekend. Delage on drums and Alex Bilodeau on double bass teamed up with two Torontonians – Juno-winning composer Allison Au on alto sax and her frequent collaborator, Todd Pentney, on piano – to celebrate Porter's music as part of Delage's monthly series of jazz tributes.
Over three sets, they performed songs written between 1929 and 1954, almost all for Broadway shows. The first two sets were fast-paced, including well-known pieces like "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To" and "Get Out of Town", while the third slowed down to concentrate on ballads like "Easy to Love".
There's a lot to explore in a Cole Porter song. Porter was a notable innovator in song form: for example, the alternating major and minor key changes in "What Is This Thing Called Love?", or the 108-measure length of "Begin the Beguine". Au, in particular, used the songs as a jumping-off point for exploration, while staying true to their melodies and themes. In "I Concentrate on You", she created tender, warm, extended lines of melody, while "Just One of Those Things" was taken at a break-neck pace with circling riffs.

Toronto jazz vocalist Maureen Kennedy is always learning new songs and expanding her repertoire of jazz standards.
"I have a passion for learning tunes. A real passion for it, and it's kind of nerdy."
This summer, for example, she learned six new tunes just for one show. She'll be singing all six in Ottawa this Saturday at her quartet show at GigSpace, performing with saxophonist Rob Frayne, pianist Jeff Johnston, and bassist Alec Walkington.
Some she learns from sheet music, and some from listening to recordings of other singers, particularly from the classic vocal jazz era of the 1950s. But, after many years in the business, she's gone well beyond Ella Fitzgerald, Carmen McRae, or Sarah Vaughan to "obscure singers that people don't know that well", such as Irene Kral or Jeri Southern.
"There was such a wealth of singers back in the 50s when singing standards was the popular music of the day. There were a lot of good singers that never became as famous … Teddi King was a really great singer. June Christy. Chris Connor. Singers that people aren't as familiar with. There are just a lot of great singers, and I've checked out a lot of their recordings and just picked up tunes from them."
By day, Kennedy is a Media Librarian and visual researcher for the CBC in Toronto – where she has been able to access CBC's extensive sheet music collection. "In the days when we did a lot of music on television and radio, the Music Library would just order all this sheet music, and it's such a great collection!"

Jane Bunnett is still amazed at the success of her all-woman Afro-Cuban jazz group, Maqueque.
"Three years ago, this project was a leap of faith. I didn't know if this idea would have any legs. But I thought, 'Let's try it! Let's try to put something together for a recording, all females, and just see what happens.' "
Since then, Maqueque – the Canadian jazz saxophonist/flutist plus five young women musicians from Cuba – has toured all over Canada and the U.S. and as far away as Australia. They played before thousands at the Chicago Jazz Festival last fall, with an almost-unprecedented encore demanded by the crowd. In May, they received at standing ovation at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, and then recorded a "Tiny Desk Concert" in the offices of National Public Radio – which has so far garnered almost 29,000 views. And they won a Juno Award for their first album.
The group has just released its second album, Oddara, and will bring it to Ottawa on Wednesday, October 19, for a concert at the Shenkman Arts Centre in Orleans. Besides Bunnett, Maqueque includes Yissy Garcia on drums, Dánae Olano on piano, Magdelys Savigne on batá drums and congas, Elizabeth Rodriguez on violin and vocals, and Celia Jiménez on bass.
Bunnett's heart was in the project, both musically and as an organizer, but she recognized the risks.

The Ken Harper Trio with Artie Roth and Bob Brough
Concerts by the Canal
Southminster United Church
Saturday, October 15, 2016 – 7 p.m.
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
This fall, Southminster United Church in Ottawa South began offering Saturday evening concerts, in addition to its popular Wednesday noon concerts. The third show in this new series – and the first jazz concert – featured the long-time trio of Ottawa drummer Ken Harper with two Toronto musicians, Artie Roth on double bass and Bob Brough on tenor sax.
With busy schedules and a 450 km distance to travel, this trio doesn't get together to perform as often as they'd like – Harper estimates only about four times a year – but you could hear an easy connection and a like-minded approach in their music.
Harper and Roth met in 1988, when they both started studying music at York University, and later teamed up with veteran saxophonist Brough for this trio. Over the past two years, they've played several Ottawa-area locations: clubs, a house concert, and GigSpace, but this was their biggest Ottawa venue yet.
Other than an announcement mic that wasn't always turned on or used properly, the concert was all-acoustic, with a beautiful, rounded sound. The musicians made a point of playing to the space, using its resonance, and playing softly enough that their instruments could be heard overlaying and complementing each other. Harper's cymbal sounds were crisp and ringing; Roth's bass was clear and full; Brough's tenor lines were rich and commanding.

Samuel Blaser and Gerry Hemingway
IMOO (Improvising Musicians of Ottawa-Outaouais) #147
House of Common, Ottawa
Monday, October 10, 2016 – 8 p.m.
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
Trombonist Samuel Blaser and drummer Gerry Hemingway opened their Canadian tour on Monday with a bravura performance in Ottawa, a concentrated display of deep communication and innovation.
Thanking the audience for coming out on the Thanksgiving holiday, Hemingway noted that, "At least we know you're not hungry. Now we'll feed the other part of your souls."
And feed them they did, with music which explored the full ranges of their instruments, and moved from the tiniest threads of sound to all-out thunderous fanfares – to the intent interest and appreciation of their listeners.
Blaser (from Switzerland and now living in Berlin) and Hemingway (from the U.S. and now living in Switzerland) are more usually found on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, but are touring across Canada this week. Most of their shows on the tour are with Blaser's quartet, which also includes Russ Lossing on piano, and Masa Kamaguchi on bass. Montreal and Ottawa were the exceptions, where the two were scheduled to perform as a duo as part of local improvised music series.
Blaser and Hemingway are no less formidable as a duo. They're both well-known as free improvisers (Hemingway has been playing creative music for four decades), and have performed together in several of Blaser's groups.

Sienna Dahlen and François Jalbert
Court, mais jazz
La Nouvelle Scène
Saturday, October 8, 2016 – 7:30 p.m.
View photos by Brett Delmage of this performance
Sienna Dahlen's music floats comfortably in the intersection of jazz, singer-songwriter, chanson, art song, and cabaret. Her delivery and musicianship clearly show her jazz roots, but her songs are more confessional and intimate – and less swinging – than straight jazz.
She's just released a new CD, Ice Age Paradise, a highly personal collection of songs chronicling a difficult time in her life. It was recorded with a nine-person ensemble including horns and strings, and, at shows this fall in Toronto and Montreal, she's presenting the music with the full ensemble.
But for Ottawa, she performed a stripped-down version: just her on vocals and keyboards, and François Jalbert on guitar. Even with simpler arrangements, the songs still ended up sounding rich and expressive, with Dahlen's strong and multi-octave voice well supported and underlined by Jalbert's inventive guitar lines.
Although the material was personal, the presentation was very Canadian: Dahlen switched effortlessly and frequently between English and French, within songs and during her introductions. This was partly because of the location: La Nouvelle Scène is Ottawa's francophone theatre space. But there was a easy naturalness to the interchange; it felt like simply another mode of expression rather than a political point – not surprising for a vocalist who divides her time between Montreal and Toronto.
Only two of the songs were from the new album. Three were from Dahlen's previous album, Verglas, and she also included a song by the late Montreal singer Lhasa de Sela.

Five years later, fans still remember Thursday jazz nights at Café Paradiso – and are paying to hear that music again this weekend.
Three jazz listeners are sponsoring a concert on Saturday at GigSpace, where guitarist Tim Bedner and vocalist/pianist/flute player Elise Letourneau will recreate the music they used to play at that former Ottawa jazz venue.
"We were totally taken aback that someone missed what we were doing on Thursday nights," Bedner said. "That was good for the heart and soul - that there were folks out there who would miss what we would do, with piano, guitar, voice, and flute. Also the repertoire that we had – favourites for folks that would come out."
Café Paradiso closed in mid-2012, after a 14-year run, and more than 10 years as a major downtown jazz venue. It was a high-end restaurant which showcased jazz musicians visiting from Toronto, Montreal, and New York City (including Christine Jensen, Kirk MacDonald, David Braid, Sheila Jordan, and Dave Liebman), as well as well-known Ottawa jazz musicians such as Roddy Ellias, John Geggie, Mark Ferguson, and Diane White.
And every week for 4½ years, Bedner and Letourneau would play jazz standards, tunes by guitarist Pat Metheny, music by the Beatles and by Paul Simon, and choice Latin bossa novas.
"That is what every musician dreams of, getting something like that on a weekly, steady basis, because you show up every week trying to do better than you did the week before, adding new repertoire, tweaking songs out," Bedner said. "Trying to come up with different things each time we play it, or go deeper in the tune, it's valuable! Having that: it's definitely like going back to school again."
"I've been very, very lucky that I've been able to continue playing weekly at other venues since Café Paradiso. Again it's just getting that connection to music using the creative process of, 'OK here I am again, playing this tune, maybe a little bit differently, hopefully still as musical as I can be.' "
"I respond well to deadlines, and having a reason to learn a tune or two or three every week was really valuable – having that Thursday night target," Letourneau said. "It was really good for repertoire building. I thought I had a pretty good repertoire before, but just having that reason to keep adding to it, and having a place to try it out and gauge – 'OK, people seem to enjoy that, or people were kind of indifferent.' Sometimes they were indifferent, sometimes they were just focused on their meals."

The Baxter County Sheriff's Office arrested twelve (12) persons this past weekend for alcohol-related offenses after deputies responded to a disturbance call and found a party with underage persons consuming alcohol.
On Sunday, November 28th at approximately 1:32 in the morning, Deputy Charles Bost responded to a disturbance call at an address on Deer Park Loop, which is South of Mountain Home. Deputy Bost and Deputy Tracy Munson observed about ten vehicles parked in the yard and street in front of the house and saw several people going into the house. The deputies approached the residence and observed several persons who they believed to be minors to be consuming or in the presence of a large quantity of alcoholic beverages. The investigation found that several persons were in fact minors and had in fact consumed some of the alcohol that was present, and that the alcohol had been furnished by three adults who were present. A total of fifteen (15) persons were transported to the Baxter County Detention Center. At the conclusion of the investigation, charges were filed as follows:
Richard Huffins, 23 years old of rural Mountain Home; and Alan Dover, 21 years old of rural Mountain Home; and Kaila Sandoval, 21 years old of Mountain Home,
were each charged with Knowingly Furnishing Alcohol to Minors – a Misdemeanor offense. Each will appear in Baxter County District Court on December 16th.
Chelsea Knight, 20 years old of Mountain Home; and Sabier Miller, 20 years old of rural Mountain Home; and Jaimee Branscum, 19 years old of Pineville; and Santana Belt, 18 years old of Clarkridge; and Jordan Wolf, 20 years old of Mountain Home; and Alex Brandt, 20 years old of Mountain Home; and Saxton Hatman, 19 years old of Jacksonville; and Mason Conner, 19 years old of Mountain Home,
were each charged with Minor in Possession of Alcohol – a Misdemeanor offense. Each will appear in Baxter County District Court on December 16th.
In addition, a seventeen (17) year old female was taken into custody on a charge of Minor in Possession of Alcohol and turned over to Baxter County Juvenile Services.
Two other minors had not been consuming alcohol and were released without charges.
