Last weekend, I made cupcakes. I didn't make cupcakes because I wanted cupcakes, though – I made cupcakes because I've been craving really good frosting. And as tempting as it was to just make a batch of frosting and eat it with a spoon, I decided I should at least pretend to have some level of decorum.
So, the cupcakes. I used the first likely-looking vanilla cupcake recipe from Food Network, which turned out to be Magnolia's Vanilla Cupcakes. They were perfectly good cupcakes. Nothing to write home about, but a nice, basic, vanilla cupcake.
While they were cooling, I started on the frosting. I've been looking for a not-terribly-sweet cooked buttercream, so when I saw this one on Baking Bites, I had to try it. It wasn't that hard, really – beat the eggs, and then "cook" them with a simple syrup to stabilize the frosting. Once all the simple syrup was in, it looked really good and stable – then I started added an entire pound of very soft butter.
I'll admit, it started looking scary a few times. It was hard to find the patience to not add more butter until the previous pat was entirely integrated, and a couple time it looked like it was going to break. After all the butter was in, I watched it nervously for a few minutes, then turned my back for just one minute to finish loading the dishwasher.
And when I looked back, it was perfect
It was light and fluffy, flecked with vanilla bean bits, and amazingly rich. It was just sweet enough to be "frosting", but not that awful cloying sweetness of grocery-store-bakery frosting. It was exactly the frosting I'd been fantasizing about.
So I put it on the cupcakes. All the cool kids these days seem to be piping frosting on top of the cupcakes instead of frosting them with a knife, so I did the same thing:
The only problem was it made 36 cupcakes, and there was no way we could eat them fast enough, so the exposed tops got stale very quickly. Next time, I'll spread a thin coat of frosting to just cover and protect the top of the cupcake, then pipe the rest.
Now, if you'll excuse me, there's a little bit of frosting left in a bowl in the fridge, and I have a spoon…

US singer and dancer Liza Minnelli wasn't as thrilled by Oscars host Ellen DeGeneres' drag joke as the comedienne thought she was.
DeGeneres' "Well done, sir" gag at Sunday's awards ceremony has became one of the Academy Awards' top talking points.
DeGeneres insisted after the awards that she hadn't upset her friend.
"She's a totally cool lady. I went up to her later and she was funny and fine, but I think people thought I was offending her in some way," DeGeneres said on Monday.
However, Minnelli admits she can understand why some people thought she was upset.
Speaking to TMZ.com on Monday night Minnelli said, "I think she thought it would be funny but she never stopped after she said it and said, 'My friend, Liza Minnelli,' so I think it went a little stray on her.
"I don't think she meant any harm at all and she's a wonderful lady."
Minnelli, who was once married to Australian entertainer Peter Allen, attended to the Academy Awards to honour her late mum's role in The Wizard of Oz, which is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.

Minnelli may also have felt a little wounded about missing out on one of the biggest photo opportunities this year when she was muscled out of DeGeneres' Oscars selfie by the hulking Channing Tatum.
The picture featured Hollywood's elite, who shared 10 Oscars and gross takings of $13.70 billion between them.
It generated so much interest online that it crashed Twitter with more than 3 million retweets and 1.75 million favourites.

Welcome to Pino's
Pino's café offer good quality food at reasonable prices with a standard of service second to none. Ranging from cooked breakfast, lunches, snacks and freshly cooked fish and chips. Eat in or take away.
They offer wine, Italian lagers and ice-cream and are one of the few outlets in the valley to serve Mokarabia Italian coffee.
All of this can be enjoyed in a warm clean and modern environment, with a friendly atmosphere. Pay them a visit and see for yourselves, you won't be disappointed.
A Family Business
"Pinos Café" is located in Mountain Ash and is run by Andrew and Marina Carpanini, the third generation of Carpaninis to serve the people of the Cynon Valley since 1926. It all began when Andrew's grandfather, Andrea Carpanini, came over from Bardi in Italy like many other Italians, and in 1926 opened the "Corner Café" in Glancynon Terrace, Abercynon.
Later in 1946, his two sons, Pino (Giuseppe) and Maurice (Maurizio) joined the business and in 1954 a second shop was opened in Mountain Ash, run by the eldest son Pino who later went on to marry Maria and have two sons. They continued to run the café as a family business until the untimely death of Pino some years ago.

Heyyyyyyyy wooooorrrrrlllllddddd!!!
Now, when I say I love LA, it´s for a different reason. I love LA because we were able to get a big win in LA and stop our four-game losing streak. We just needed a win of any kind to get some good vibes going again and feel good about ourselves.
We were facing the Clippers at Staples Center and I love playing there!!! We came and jumped on those guys by 26 points in the first quarter. We struggled a little bit after that in the second and third quarters, but we never let the lead slip below seven points.
Every team in the NBA is going to make a run, and they made theirs, but we withstood it and fired back some blows of our own. I was proud of how we hung tough and stayed positive when we could have folded. After it was over, it was good to see all of our guys smiling again. We had a lot of fun in the locker room like we had just won a playoff game.
As the captain of this team, I´ve been looking for ways to get our team out of this little slump. We had a meeting the other night after the Portland lost, but I´ve found that it´s better to do less talking and lead with actions in times like these. I actually talked to a really good player on another team who I consider a mentor and he gave me that advice.
It´s a long season and people sometimes get too much into what they should say to fire up the team. We´re going to have months where we don´t play well. So there´s no need with everybody yelling and going back and forth. We just have to play. The more you talk about what you have to do, the more frustration just builds up. Instead of just talking about it, we just have to do it.
We got our win against the Clippers and now we´ve just got to play and not show frustration. We´re going to have bad games, but I´m not sure people understand that going 82-0 in a season is not that easy to do.
You are going to have losing streaks and winnings streaks and that´s just a part of playing in the NBA. From my standpoint, it´s just about playing basketball and letting things happen. I know this month hasn´t been the best month of our season so far, but it´s only been two months. Things happen, but we just have to weather the storm, get out of the month with a pretty good record. January is going to be a great month for us.
I got a lot of questions after the game about Blake Griffin and what advice I´d give to him. We were both No. 1 picks in the draft – me back in 2004 and him two years ago. I think he´s got a great game and the Clippers are going to be a really good team in a few years when he really gets things down. Plus, he brings a lot of excitement to the fans at the Staples Center.
I´d just tell Blake to have confidence in what he does and don´t listen to anybody criticizing his game. I like that his coach has a lot of confidence in his game and puts the ball in his hands and lets him play. He´s going to make the Clippers a force in LA real soon.
Well, one more game in Denver on Wednesday and then we´re finally back home. It seems like we´ve been on the road for a month!!! We want to finish out this trip on a strong note with another big W.
Ya´ll be good and I´ll see everybody back in Orlando on Wednesday!!! Yuuuuuuaaaaahhhhh

Dad Writes To Advice Column For Permission To Date His Daughter's Friend
Amy Dickinson is the advice column for the Chatham, Ontario, paper Chatham Daily News. The other day she received the following letter from a "divorced dad"
I've been divorced for four years. My daughter chose to stay with me. Her friends and her school were here; she is also closer to me than her mother. She is 18 now and away at college.
She has had a close friend for three years. This friend attends college here in town. Her friend and I enjoy each other's company. The girl just turned 18 too. My daughter suggested that I ask her friend out and said that her friend would say yes.
I said, "You're my daughter, and she's your friend. Wouldn't that be weird for you?" My daughter laughed and said that she can handle it. She is mature for her age.
I'm 44 years old. I like the girl, and I certainly find her attractive. Is she off-limits? — Divorced Dad
So what advice did Amy give?
Well first, here's mine. Hi Divorced Dad. The answer is NO. No, no, no. You should not date your daughter's friend, you unfettered narcissist. That's really great that you like "the girl" but you know what's not in any way appropriate or considerate? Dating an 18-year-old girl that your daughter is friends with. Of course, Amy said it in a nicer way, something to the effect of, "She is off-limits. Now that your daughter is in college, you and she should develop separate orbits where you can each grow and change and have differentiated private lives."
Or, in other words, you shouldn't date your daughter's friend just because your daughter says it's okay. What does your daughter know? She's a teenager! A kid! Teenagers shouldn't get to call the shots or decide what's ethically or morally correct. They're stupid, because they're young. It sounds like this dude and his daughter have not established proper boundaries at all. Also, I really do think this is one of those "if you have to ask" kind of things. If you have to ask if your daughter's 18-year-old friend is off-limits, well then, the answer is pretty obvious. Or, as Amy put it, "The extreme age difference isn't necessarily morally wrong — it's just terminally dumb."
What do you think? [Chatham Daily News]

With the addition of a batch of cardinals from a wider variety of regions, the top leadership of Catholicism has greater ethnic and geographical diversity than ever before. It's commonly assumed that this is the prelude to more authentic global participation in church policy and that the new batch will bring the concerns of the grass roots more directly to the seat of power. Pope Francis is believed to want this to happen.
It may turn out that way but history shows that it often doesn't work that way. New cardinals from remote and usually underrepresented areas of the church have routinely arrived in Rome as harbingers of reform and soon revealed themselves as stalwart upholders of traditionalism. Occasionally they have come from poor backgrounds, but their training and orientation toward the hierarchy has long put them out of touch with the immediate crises of poverty and spiritual pain. Like the relatively few American executives who place the needs and injustices of their humble beginnings behind them as they climb the ladder in self congratulations, many bishops "graduate" from where they started to join the church elite.
A rough analogy exists at the United Nations. In theory it's a forum for the "world" but that world, despite its grand technicolor and cultural buffet, largely omits the voice of the world's neediest and non-conformist. The range of subject that come before the General Assembly reflect more those of the established echelons of their societies, the sectors they have themselves come from, than the cries of the neglected. Another example of the disconnect is the campaign for college "diversity" especially among elite institutions which have pitiful little of it. The studies show some apparent progress but that the modest increase in black, brown, Asian and Middle Eastern come mostly from the privileged classes. That class identity has molded similar ways of acting and thinking: no substantial diversity there.
The period following the Second Vatican Council provides a sterling case of how diversity doesn't mean a plurality of voices in the church. Under Paul VI, there was fanfare over the "internationalization" of the curia, with non-European and non-white prelates taking over key Vatican offices. Soon most of them had become known as "more Roman than Roman," much as the immigrant can overly identify with his or her new host country's outlook. Whoever aspires to purple and red hats usually takes on the culture of the hierarchy where perspectives are, to say the least, narrow.
After Vatican II, there were cardinals who were bold and outspoken for justice inside and outside the church. Cardinals Arns and Lorsheider from South America, for example, sympathized with liberation theology and seemed to grasp the cause of the oppressed classes. But John Paul II and Cardinal Josef Ratzinger as his trusty enforcer went to war against liberation theology and its advocates so that regional initiative fell into retreat. Breaking through the Roman mind set is a formidable task and if Pope Francis is serious about doing so he's in for a hard struggle. The new cardinals may provide him the energy and conviction of the under classes that will allow him to rearrange bricks in that fortress but it is far from clear that the latest recruits to the college of cardinals will keep whatever commitments they may have made to the church's "outsiders" once they enter the heart of the ruling class.
The reason most of us remember "Mr. Smith" is that when he went to Washington he didn't become Washington like the others. He was tested and held fast, unlike the current crop in Congress which gashed the food stamp allocation, showing in one way how out of touch with everything they are. If the pope keeps his class sensibilities and has managed to recruit like minded allies, bravo.

A Reminder
A Reminder
I have had depression for a long time but wasn't diagnosed till a couple years ago. My tattoo came from the idea of TWLOHA [To Write Love On Her Arms] and it's in white ink to look like a scar to remind myself not to cut anymore.

Falling Before You Fly
Falling Before You Fly
I got this tattoo to remind myself not to give up no matter what. It's a quote I really like and it says: "Sometimes you've got to fall before you fly." I also have a semicolon tattooed on my wrist. I don't know if you're familiar with the Semicolon Project but the semicolon is a way of saying: "Your story isn't over yet." That is symbolic for people that struggle with depression, self-harm, and suicide. Please look it up if you're not familiar with it. :)

Never Stop Trying
Never Stop Trying
This is something of a personal mantra. It keeps me from falling into apathy and helps me to remember that even when it seems like there is no escape, you should never stop trying.

Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness
Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness
The grey ribbon symbolizes borderline personality disorder awareness. I was diagnosed with this condition months ago. The condition is a gift in that we are hypersensitive to the positive emotions of love; in a way that only borderliners can truly understand, the feeling is incredibly intense and comforting. Conversely, heartbreak and the associated negative emotions are, to a similar degree of intensity, debilitating and last for quite some time (the curse).
— Landon
Keep Trying
Keep Trying
Joshua 1:9: "Be strong and courageous, do not fear for the Lord your God goes with you." I am a "trier." I am someone who is relentless enough to continue when I realize I will be the last one. Unwilling to let my depression prompt me to quit by taking my own life, I knew what that looked like because both my parents ended their lives by suicide. I wanted to be strong and courageous; I wanted to be brave. I do fear and feel weak...but I keep trying.
— Patricia
We All Deserve Love
We All Deserve Love
For my entire adult life I have been living with mental illness. At age 20 I was diagnosed with histrionic personality disorder, and with that diagnosis came shame and embarrassment.
Now in my mid-30s I have learned to quell the stigma that is associated with mental illness. I have learned to control and manage my personality disorder, but every day is a battle to accept and love myself.
My tattoo is the word "love" shaped as a heart to remind myself that I am not my disorder, and I deserve to be loved by myself and by others.
— Amy
Love Your Life
Love Your Life
"Live the life you love. Love the life you live."
I believe it speaks for itself. Having bipolar disorder keeps me on edge almost all the time and I frequently forget to love my life instead of hate my disorder.
— Brenda
Embracing to Overcome
Embracing to Overcome
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2006. I got the tattoo in 2013 after I finally accepted it rather than just treating it (there is a difference). Rather than dwelling on and whining about the "unfairness" of having the disease, I decided to embrace it with this "warning label at the base of my skull."

Beauty Behind the Pain
Beauty Behind the Pain
These are my favorite lyrics, from "Not Dark Yet" by Bob Dylan. I wear this tattoo with pride. Behind all the pain inside me, there is beauty too.

Remember the Stars
Remember the Stars
This quote is from the To Write Love On Her Arms blog post. Living with depression has been very tough, but this quote has kept me going ever since I first read it. When I feel like life gets too hard, I just look at my tattoo and it reminds me that there is hope that one day this will get better. It reminds me that I have people that love me. This tattoo helps me make it through every day, and out of all the tattoos I have, this is the one I cherish the most.

Taking It One Day at a Time
Taking It One Day at a Time
Music notes of my inspirational song, and the "one day at a time" slogan, which is how I live my life.

It's All in Your Perspective
It's All in Your Perspective
After I went through a severe depressive episode, was hospitalized, and ultimately diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder, I decided I wanted a tattoo to help remind me that perspective can make a huge difference in how I react to things. The bipolar emoticon can be viewed as a happy face or a sad face just by looking at it differently — just as in real life.
— Brian Aden
Stay Anchored
Stay Anchored
During a low point in a long depressive cycle (I'm bipolar), I self-harmed so badly I required stitches. I desperately needed to cover the scar. It took me awhile to think of something that would not only cover the scar but serve as a reminder to not go that far again, no matter how low my illness takes me. I chose an old school style anchor to remind me to "stay anchored." Many times a day I'm challenged. Glancing at my tattoo reminds me how far I've come.

An Anniversary
An Anniversary
The top one I got to mark my two-year anniversary of not cutting. I chose this because of the To Write Love On Her Arms movement. The bottom one I got in one of the darkest times. I felt like my heart was so dark no one could ever love me, and it's crying blood. It's a reminder of how far I've come.
Back on Track
Back on Track
The reason I got two pandas is because they are one of my favorite animals. If you look closely enough, one panda is happy and the other is sad. I am bipolar, so the happy panda represents manic episodes and the sad panda is representing depressive episodes. The reason why I have a green ribbon in between them is because the green is representative of Mental Health Awareness Week, which is May 11 to May 17 each year.
At first I found it really difficult to come to terms with being diagnosed with bipolar (I was only 16 at the time) and it impacted significantly on my life. At the time I was doing my A-Level exams and I couldn't focus on revision or lessons, so I failed the exams. Now, at the age of 18, I have come to terms with my diagnosis and my life is getting back on track. I am proud to be bipolar and this tattoo represents that.
— Jemma
Stay Strong
Stay Strong
I started suffering with depression at a really young age (around 11 years old) but I managed to hide it until it finally got so bad, I had to go to the doctors. Within weeks off seeing the doctor, I saw a therapist and was diagnosed with severe depression and put on antidepressants. At 15 years old, I didn't want to take the medication, due to wanting to feel like "a normal teenager." Eventually though, I ended up taking them as prescribed. All throughout my recovery from my depressive episode, my family and my therapist were all telling me to "stay strong." When I relapsed at the age of 17, I tried to commit suicide. I forgot what I had been taught — that I can get through anything, as long as I stay strong. I had those words tattooed on my wrist so whenever I was going through something bad, I could just look down at my wrist and remember to stay strong.
— Jemma
It Comes Down to Hormones
It Comes Down to Hormones
My third depression tattoo is my most geeky tattoo. It is my serotonin and dopamine molecular tattoo that is located on my right wrist. The serotonin and dopamine hormones are the hormones that are responsible for regulating how happy you feel. I have always been interested in science at school and especially in biology, so I thought why not get a tattoo that not only shows my enthusiasm in science, but that also makes me remember that whenever I am feeling down, eventually my brain will release these hormones and I will feel happy again.
— Jemma
Kill Hannah Encourages Life
Kill Hannah Encourages Life
In 2011, the band Kill Hannah held a charity tattoo drive to benefit the organization To Write Love on Her Arms. I went through a very dark, completely numb period where close friends worried I'd literally die from my broken heart. Music (specifically, the bands Kill Hannah and Jack's Mannequin/Something Corporate) was my salvation.
I proudly wrote LOVE on my arm to show others that they don't have to face anything alone. There is always someone to help, to care, to talk to, even if it is a stranger. You just need the courage to ask.

Spreading the Love and Awareness
Spreading the Love and Awareness
I decided to get this tattoo on my wrist after I first heard about "free love day" in April 2011. That's when I learned of the group To Write Love on Her Arms, a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide.
TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and invest in treatment and recovery. I decided to get the tattoo in a place visible to all, so that someone might ask me: "Hey, what does that mean?" and I might spread awareness.
— Ashley
You're Beautiful, Worthy, and Loved
You're Beautiful, Worthy, and Loved
The basic story behind my tattoo is "to write love on her arms." It's my inspiration to keep from cutting every time I look down at my wrist. I got it after a breakup as a reminder that I am loved no matter what, and I don't need anyone else to affirm that I'm beautiful and worthy. All I need is me. I am worth loving regardless of anything.
— Chanel
Inspiration from the Ancients
Inspiration from the Ancients
This is my "Depression Tattoo." It is a dream catcher to protect me from hurting myself and others. It has a wolf in the middle of it to represent the "Two Wolves" Native American tale, and the three different colored beads represent the birth stones of three people in my life who helped me when I was going through my worst depression. I got the tattoo to help me on bad days and to look at it as a reminder of strength, love, freedom, determination, and resilience.
— Mariah
New Life, New Opportunities
New Life, New Opportunities
I am bipolar axis 2. I have been hospitalized several times. After my second stay in the hospital with a new game plan of ECT, I had my mom drive me to get this tattoo. I have since changed my life completely and have had opportunities I never thought I would. This picture was taken last summer in IBIZA. It reminds me to fight for life.
Life Is Worth Fighting For
Life Is Worth Fighting For
Emilie Autumn writes songs that I can relate to and pushes me to fight hard to live for myself. A couple years ago, I got the chance to meet her. I told her of my struggles and she told me that she had similar experiences. She autographed my arm that is covered in scars and made me promise to never hurt myself again. I haven't self-injured since. I am constantly reminded by the tattoo that life is worth fighting for.
— Tina
Ethereal Protection
Ethereal Protection
God was the inspiration behind this tattoo. It reminds me that He is always there with me in everything I do and everything I go through, protecting me and the people I care about through my mania and depression phases.
— Tyler
You're in Control
You're in Control
I got this tattoo a little over two years ago. I've been diagnosed bipolar type 1. My tattoo stands for being depressed and manic. I got it as a symbol that I am in control of my illness, and am not afraid to show people that it makes me who I am today. It's a great conversation starter and has helped me begin to educate the ones around me about bipolar.
— Korrie
Man's Best Friend
Man's Best Friend
I have PTSD, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder. I had a wonderful, black, fat, happy, service animal named Eddie for 11 years. He was part Border Collie and part Labrador Retriever.
Together, we created a new life for me, after my old, "normal" life was over. He took me to the grocery store and we rode horseback. With him, I could leave the house and participate in life again. We even educated the public about PSDs (psychiatric service dogs). When he was passing, I promised him we would never be apart again, and got a tattoo of his paw print. He is always with me now...so I am not afraid anywhere I go.
— Alise
This is on my left foot. I got it during my senior year of college during my first — and so far only — unmedicated depression. I got this because I needed a physical reminder of strength and that I need to give myself and those around me grace for the day.
I chose a butterfly because I feel much like when a caterpillar is going into a cocoon and feels as though it is dying. This symbolized my depression and that if I could hold out and get through it, I could become something beautiful on the other side.
— Rhiannon
Everlasting Hope
Everlasting Hope
As I struggled through urges of self-harm and suicide and felt utterly hopeless, I knew I needed something to remind me that there was hope even when I couldn't see it or feel it.
This tattoo is a constant reminder of the sometimes seemingly-impossible-to-grasp hope. I look at my wrist and know I have to keep fighting because there will be better times, even if they don't always last.

Stanislas Wawrinka has never prised a set from Rafael Nadal, but learnt things in their last meeting that he plans to put to use by playing with aggression and risk in Sunday's final.
The last of Wawrinka's 12 losses to Nadal came in London last year, in a round-robin match at the season-ending championship where the Swiss player pushed Nadal to two tiebreaks.
Wawrinka won three more points than Nadal in that match - wasting five of his seven chances to break serve - and on Saturday said he did not feel daunted by what he had failed to do in the past.
The world No. 8 had a similarly poor record against Novak Djokovic before beating the defending champion in five sets in their quarter-final.
"The record is not what I'm looking (at). That's what it is against Rafa," said Wawrinka, after a practice session late on Saturday morning.
"I'm playing my best tennis here. Physically I'm ready. I had two days off, so that's perfect for me. Going to try everything.
"I know Rafa (for a) long time and I know how he's playing. I think he's playing for sure some of his best tennis. "Especially when you have to play night session here it's a little bit slower, he can really play his game and try to play aggressive.
"I (have played him) so many times, lost so many times, but going to try again.
"I know what I have to do: I know that I have to play aggressive, serve really well and (try) to always push him. "We'll see how I can do that tomorrow night."
Wawrinka won 51 matches in 2013 to move from No. 17 to inside the top 10 for the first time in his 12-year career, after starting work with coach Magnus Norman in April.
The 28-year-old said that under Norman's influence he had become a more confident player who walked onto the court feeling like he could "beat almost anyone, even in the big stage" at a grand slam.
"For sure it's about confidence, especially with my game that I'm playing quite fast from the baseline, trying to always be aggressive," he said.
"So I take a lot of risks sometimes, so it's important to be really fresh and relaxed in my head."
He spent his day off on Friday training and having a massage before spending some of his afternoon at the James Bond exhibition at Melbourne Museum and watching Roger Federer get beaten by Nadal. That result will make Wawrinka Switzerland's highest ranked player, ending his close friend's near 15-year hold.
"I watch the match yesterday night, and today I had one hour of practice. So nothing special, you know. Just trying to be ready for tomorrow," said Wawrinka, who appreciated the extra rest.
"You know, one more day off was great for me, especially after two really tough match against Novak and Tomas (Berdych). So I think was great for my body.
"I had a chance during the tournament to have one walkover and I had three days off and was not a problem. I think in grand slams it's important whenever you can to try to recover and to be fit and ready.
"But tomorrow it's going to be I'm going to keep my routine: try to come early to practice, take time to have dinner here, then listen with some music, being alone a little bit like I had before the semi-final.

Just FYI...
I just did this install last night with the same exact clip you are using in your ECU box and I have the same issues... and my Angel Eyes are LED lights... so I dont even have the ballasts....
I'm starting to think that those crimp connectors are crap... I had to use them on the Angel Eyes connections too because there are no ballasts and they are a direct connection... I think I'm going to pull everything apart tonight and solder the connections with the angel eyes and use some type of different clip for the trigger wire...
Let me know if this ends up being your problem!

I thought our season went alright, Dickerson said. We definitely had some let downs but we also did some really great things like beat our rival Don Bosco which we haven't done in eight years; I thought I had a very good season doing everything I could to help my team win.
The 6-foot-4, 240-pound defensive end recorded 56 tackles and six sacks for Bergen Catholic High School en route to being considered the seventh best player at his position and earning numerous offers.
Stanford, Rutgers, South Carolina, Connecticut and Tennessee have requested Dickerson's services, to name a few, and Ohio State and Michigan have offered the highly touted player as a tight end. Offers from Alabama and Michigan State could be on the way as well.
I was flattered by all the programs that have expressed interest in me because it is truly an honor, Dickerson said. All of them are great schools and programs so for them to be interested in me is very flattering.
Two other schools that have made offers to Dickerson may present a stronger emotional pull due to family connections. His brother Cameron Dickerson plays at Northwestern and the four star prospect admitted that playing with his older brother again would be great. The other school with family ties to Dickerson sits in College Park.
Both of my parents went [to Maryland] and they always talk about how much fun they had there and how it is an amazing place, Dickerson said. So [considering] what I hear from them it seems like a great place with great academics.
Dickerson said that the Terps are recruiting him hard and that his relationship with their staff is good, largely through talks with Assistant Coach Keith Dudzinski. Dickerson acknowledged that he is impressed with Maryland's uniforms and academics, but those aren't the only things that caught his attention.
I think [leaving the ACC] was a great move by Maryland because the Big Ten is an amazing conference and they are going to play some great teams, Dickerson said. So I think it was a very good idea of them to move to the Big Ten.
Dickerson's plan is to begin taking official visits in the spring and summer, and while he said that distance won't be a factor in his college choice, he did describe what he will be looking for as he weighs his options.
A program that isn't afraid to play anyone and most importantly a place where I can get a great education, Dickerson said.
Though Dickerson said that he is nowhere close to a decision, he expects to make his choice in the fall. He did, however, express a special interest in the Terrapins.
I am very interested in Maryland as [I] am all the other schools that have offered me, Dickerson said. Probably a little more in Maryland though because both of my parents went there, so I am definitely looking into it.
For now, Dickerson said that he is going to continue working on all aspects of his game as he prepares for his senior year. His speed off the ball and ability to play both sides will likely mean more offers down the road, and it will take a substantial recruiting effort to land him.

Flutist Carol Wincenc to Celebrate 25th Anniversary at The Juilliard School, 9/30
Carol Wincenc, the Grammy-nominated artist who is one of the most acclaimed and respected flutists performing today, marks her 25th anniversary as a member of the faculty of The Juilliard School in the 2013-14 season. She is celebrating the milestone with a concert at Juilliard that represents her most cherished facets of artistic life: new music, with the world premiere of a work written for her, and the U.S. and New York premieres of works by Alfred Schnittke and Hans Werner Henze; collaboration with her esteemed colleagues, with every work on the program requiring at least two guest artists; and, of course, teaching some of the best young flutists in the world who pass through Juilliard, with seven of her Juilliard students joining her on the program.
Carol Wincenc's 25th Anniversary Recital at The Juilliard School, taking place on Monday, September 30, 2013, at 8:00 PM at the Peter Jay Sharp Theater, features Debussy's Sonata for flute, viola, and harp, L. 137; the world premiere of Yuko Uebayashi's Misericordia for flute and string quartet, a work written for Wincenc; the U.S. premiere of Schnittke's Moz-Art à la Mozart for eight flutes and harp; the New York premiere of Henze's I Sentimenti di Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach for solo flute, solo harp, double string quartet, and bass; and an arrangement by Daniel Paget: One Hundred Roses: Seven Neapolitan Serenades and Dances for flute, strings, mandolin, guitar, and percussion.
Joining Carol Wincenc for the program are her two friends and fellow members of their trio Les Amies, harpist Nancy Allen and violist Cynthia Phelps; the Escher String Quartet (Adam Barnett-Hart and Aaron Boyd, violins; Pierre Lapointe, viola; and Dane Johansen, cello); the Attacca Quartet (Amy Schroeder and Keiko Tokunaga, violins; Luke Fleming, viola; and Andrew Yee, cello); bassist Jonathan Borden; mandolin player Ken Hamao; guitarist Colin Davin; percussionists Charles Rosmarin and Michael Truesdell; and seven of her Juilliard flute students: Jake Chabot, Rosie Gallagher, Daniel James, Nicholas Johnson, Stephanie Kwak, Andreas Lamo, and Jiweon Ryu.
Tickets to the concert are free, and are available at the Janet and Leonard Kramer Box Office at Juilliard. The event is part of Juilliard's Daniel Saidenberg Faculty Recital Series.
In the 2009-2010 season, Carol Wincenc commissioned and performed six works in celebration of her "Ruby Anniversary" celebration of 40 years on the concert stage. Three recent and upcoming recordings feature three of those works. American Flute Quintets (2012, Bridge Records), with musicians of the Green Mountain Chamber Music Festival, features Joan Tower's Rising; on an upcoming all-Jake Heggie disc, here/after (release in October on PentaTone Classics; click here for CD trailers), Carol performs in three works: Soliloquy for flute and piano;Friendly Persuasions for flute, clarinet, cello, piano, and tenor; and another of the "Ruby" commissions, Fury of Lightfor flute and piano; and the debut recording of Carol's trio Les Amies with harpist Nancy Allen and violist Cynthia Phelps (release later this season by GRP Records), will include, in addition to works by Debussy and Ravel, a performance of another "Ruby" commission: Andrea Clearfield's ...and low to the lake falls home..., a piece that is dedicated to Carol's parents, Joseph and Margaret Wincenc.
In addition, Carol's performance of Henryk Gorecki's Concerto-Cantata, the world and U.S. premieres of which she played, is featured in a 2012 Naxos recording, and her performance of Su Lian Tan's Autumn Lute-Song is featured on a disc of the composer's works released earlier this year on the Arsis label.
In April 2012, Carol performed the world premiere of a work written for her, Concerto for Flute and Orchestra by the acclaimed young composer Geoffrey Gordon, with the Buffalo Philharmonic conducted by Christoph Mathias Mueller. In May 2014, Carol will be honored with a National Society of Arts & Letters Gold Medal for Lifetime Achievement in Music. She was honored with the National Flute Association's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011.
Carol Wincenc is one of the most respected and acclaimed flutists performing today. She appears with orchestras worldwide and has premiered works written for her by numerous prominent composers.
Ms. Wincenc's musicianship is matched by a deep commitment to expanding the flute repertoire. For her "Ruby Anniversary," a celebration of her 40th year on the concert stage that she presented in the 2009-10 season, she performed six world premieres; new works written for her by composers Jonathan Berger, Shih-Hui Chen, Andrea Clearfield, Jake Heggie, Thea Musgrave, and Joan Tower. Three of the works - Joan Tower's Rising, Andrea Clearfield's ...and low to the lake falls home..., and Jake Heggie's Fury of Light, have been recorded by Wincenc since their premieres.
Carol Wincenc has performed the world premieres of flute concertos written for her by Pulitzer-Prize winner Christopher Rouse and Geoffrey Gordon. Ms. Wincenc also gave the world premiere of Henryk Gorecki's Concerto Cantata at Amsterdam's Concertgebouw and the U.S. premiere with the Chicago Symphony, a work she has also recorded. She is in demand for her interpretation Lukas Foss's Renaissance Concerto for Flute and Orchestra-a work written for her, and has premiered concerti by Peter Schickele, Joan Tower, Paul Schoenfield and Tobias Picker, who composed The Rain In the Trees, a double concerto for her and soprano Barbara Hendricks inspired by the rainforest poems of W.S. Merwin. In a Naumburg Foundation Valentine's Day recital in New York's Merkin Concert Hall in 1998, she premiered ten short "valentines" written for her by Gorecki, Sierra, and Michael Torke, among others.

The last original member of The Platters, who continued to perform as long as his health permitted, died in Boston after a period of declining health.
Herb Reed, the founder and last surviving member of 1950s doo-wop group The Platters, passed away on Monday, June 4 in Boston after a period of declining health. According to his manager Fred Balboni, the 83-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Famer had lung disease.
For Reed who lost his parents when he was barely a teen, it was a long journey to success. "I was poor, and I'm not ashamed to share those stories now, particularly with young people," he once said. "I was so hungry I couldn't think. I would skip school because I was so hungry."
He lived in Kansas City until the age of 15 before moving to Los Angeles and worked at a car wash. "Those days were learning days before the recordings," he recalled. "I learned how nice people could be and learned responsibility. I learned that it is better to be honest than dishonest."
He made new friends and tried his hands at music with three other men, Joe Jefferson, Cornell Gunther and Alex Hodge. He named their group The Platters, inspired by disc jockeys who called records "platters." They started out their career on the streets and sang popular songs.
They finally signed a recording contract with Mercury Records in 1955, and started accumulating hit singles. Throughout their career, they scored at least four No. 1 singles; 1955's "The Great Pretender", 1956's "My Prayer", 1958's "Twilight Time" and 1958's "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes".
Though other original members left the group over the years, Reed continued to manage, perform and tour as the Platters or Herb Reed and The Platters. In the meantime, there were many "copy cat" groups that used the original group name but included no original members.
After a long and arduous legal battle, Reed finally regained rights to the name of the group in 2011. "You know a lot of people tell me to just hang it up, but I just cannot do that. It's not right to have someone steal your name," he said. "We were cheated back then, but that's how things were done then. It's doubly wrong to face it again today. It's theft, and I have to fight so that no other artist faces this."

|Cuthman of Steyning
Feast day: February 8
He was born around 681 possibly in Devon or Cornwall, or more probably in Chidham near Bosham, about 25 miles from Steyning. His life was one of simple filial piety and charity...
According to legend, he was a shepherd who had to care for his paralysed mother after his father's death. Due to their poverty, he built a one-wheeled cart or wheelbarrow (with a rope from the handles over his shoulders taking part of the weight) in which he moved her around with him.
They set out east from his home and, when the rope broke, he made a new one, deciding that if the rope broke again he would take it as a sign from God to stop at that place and build a church. The rope broke at the place now called Steyning. After building a hut to accommodate his mother and himself, he began work on the church (St Andrew's, Steyning). As the church was nearing completion and St Cuthman was having difficulty with a roof-beam, a stranger showed him how to fix it. When Cuthman asked his name, he replied: "I am he in whose name you are building this church." This church was certainly in existence by 857, for we know that King Ethelwulf was buried there in that year.
Here he
died and was buried. King Edward the Confessor handed over responsibility for
the Steyning church to the monks of Fécamp in

Regional Reviews: Connecticut & the Berkshires
Regional Reviews by Fred Sokol
Autumn Sonata
Charlotte was a touring classical pianist who, years ago, was at extreme odds with Eva, inward and repressed. The other daughter, Helena (Merritt Janson), suffered from a debilitating illness from her childhood and the condition accelerates as Helena grows older. Lena, as she is called, makes indecipherable sounds. Charlotte, after a seven year absence, returns to visit and stay, perhaps, at the home of Eva and Eva's older husband, Viktor (Olek Krupa), a pastor in a Norway church.
Charlotte is a gifted pianist and Eva, too, plays. At one point, Eva presents a Chopin prelude. Her mother's reaction is: "I was moved." Then, "I like you." The comments are devastating. Candy Buckley's portrayal of the icy, haughty, distant Charlotte is precise. Rebecca Henderson's Eva, hurt so deeply as girl, eventually stands up to her mother. None of this is pretty.
A piano is situated downstage and another toward the rear. Somehow, Helena (out of character and in the role of musician) is able to play, quite beautifully, the less visible piano. Paul Brantley performs on the cello with great dexterity. Neither of the other actresses is a pianist and it is unclear whether they are really playing during the performance.
Robert Woodruff directs the presentation with definitive choices. Each actor individually wears a microphone. The amplification, at first, is an annoyance. Yet, as the 100-minute performance (without intermission) evolves, the amplified sound helps envelop theatergoers. So, too, does Woodruff's decision to utilize many projections of the actors' faces. These appear on shades or a scrim just behind the first performance area. Again, this imaginative technique is simultaneously irritating and effective. Woodruff also employs live and pre-recorded video.
The bond and understanding between the sisters is, at once, saddening and stunning. Only Eva understands Lena. At times, actress Merritt Janson can do little more than smack her head violently upon the headrest of her chair. When she utters something, her sister understands. For example, Lena makes a noise. Eva says to Charlotte, "She wants you to take her head in your hands and look at her." It is a breathtaking and difficult moment, one of many in Autumn Sonata. Late, just before the play's epilogue, Buckley screams with a primal ferocity which is frightful.
Bergman's film version of Autumn Sonata appeared in 1978. That movie, impetus for the play, must have been dark. The resultant Yale Rep piece, however depressing, does not numb and deaden. Instead, the passion serves to compel attention.
The cast for the play is to be complimented for finding these demanding characters and staying with them throughout. I would never sit through Autumn Sonata a second time and elect to be trapped by its disturbing misery. To feel such lack of ease and discomfort is painful. As dramatic theater, however, the production totally engages.
Autumn Sonata continues at Yale Repertory Theatre in New Haven through May 7th. For ticket information, call (203) 432-1234 or visit yalerep.org.

The foothill Indians were not a particularly intelligent lot.
And behind her, like a foothill in the shadow of a mountain, was Laban.
My cattle are so pore I'll have to winter 'em on foothill winter feed.
The lower third of the mountains, that is, the foothill section, is only tree-dotted.
There is no sleugh hay in the foothill country; the hay is cut on the uplands, a short, fine grass of great nutritive value.
It was not many days after my arrival in the foothill country that I began to hear of Gwen.
The porch outlook commanded a view of the foothill canyon, and of a limited area of the bowl-shaped upper valley.
Neither had he an interest in the foothill country to the west.
Common in the brush land of both valley and foothill, being found in the canyons also.
"Flo, after a while persuade Carley to ride with you to the top of this first foothill," said Glenn.

West Point Grad Gets Drafted to Football Field
Soon to be West Point graduate Caleb Campbell (#13) will start his active duty as a member of the Detroit Lions professional football team. If he hadn't been drafted, he would be headed to Iraq or Kuwait as a platoon leader in charge of 32 soldiers.
Campbell's first dream was to serve his country, as he turned down offers to play football at other colleges as a high school senior. He didn't have hopes of going pro, as when he began his career at West Point the military had not yet implemented its "alternative service option," which allows graduates to play professional sports.
The Army hopes that Campbell will be a successful high profile recruiting tool. During the off season, he will work in a Detroit Army recruiting office.
Critics of the policy feel it betrays the American people who expect West Point men and women to serve as military leaders in exchange for their education, not play professional sports. In addition, it may undermine camaraderie among West Point alumni and the armed forces in general. Even Campbell admitted that his classmates didn't understand his decision at first.
Do you think Campbell can serve his country just as well on the gridiron or is he backing out on his commitment? Will a NFL player help the Army successfully recruit more Americans to serve in the military or is a better West Point football team all the Army has in mind with the "alternative service option"?

[video] Soundgarden first gig with new drummer
Soundgarden kicked off their string of South American dates on Thursday in Peru, and that marked their first show with fill-in drummer Matt Chamberlain.
Last fall, Soundgarden revealed that their standard drummer Matt Cameron would be unable to join them on the road this year due to his obligations with Pearl Jam. The band posted this to their site, "We'd like to officially welcome Matt Chamberlain who will be playing drums with us in South America, and for the summer," posted the group. "Can't wait to see you all soon!"
Chamberlain is well known as a session drummer, having appeared on over 200 records, including projects by Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen and David Bowie

Higher Education in Slovenia: Analysis of Demand
The topic of this monograph are socio-economic factors of absolute demand for higher education. Using regression analysis, different social and economic factors of the increasing rate and of the decreasing base of demand on the aggregate level are determined. Using probit analysis, additional factors of the rate of demand on the individual level, such as informatisation and education level of a household are determined. Demand factors are interrelated and in some cases they have a different impact on the base and different impact on the rate of demand. The increase of the rate of demand until a certain value is correlated with the increase of the absolute demand, however further increase of the rate of demand from that value on is correlated with the decrease of absolute demand which is already the case in Slovenia and which will continue to be also in the future.

Today we celebrate the 44th annual Earth Day. Founded in 1970, Earth Day was created to raise awareness of environmental concerns such as pollution and waste. Earth Day proved to be a success, with a number of important pieces of environmental legislation passed during the 1970s. Earth Day celebrations have grown over the years, and it is now celebrated across the globe. Check out the infographic below for more Earth Day facts and how you can contribute to a clean environment.

Every April for the past 10 years, we have celebrated National Financial Literacy Month – and for good reason. A person's financial literacy level can always be improved. In a study conducted by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, participants were asked five questions about personal finance, and 61% of them couldn't answer more than three questions correctly.
As the financial landscape changes, it is becoming increasingly important for individuals to know how to plan and manage their finances. More companies are moving away from pension plans and toward retirement plans that require employee participation, like 401(k) plans, leaving it up to the employees to determine how much to put into retirement. Additionally, college tuition is steadily increasing, making it even more important for families to save.
Add to that the constantly changing markets and interest rates – and the myriad options for credit cards, bank accounts, mortgages, IRAs, and investment options –and it might start to seem overwhelming.
But the more you know about financial matters, the easier it becomes to navigate through your options, and the better you are able to plan. A 2011 TIAA-CREF study also shows that higher financial literacy leads to higher pension contributions and higher household wealth.
Don't be embarrassed if your financial literacy isn't stellar. According to the 2013 Consumer Financial Literacy Survey, 41% of U.S. adults give themselves a grade of C, D or F on their knowledge of personal finance. That leaves plenty of room for improvement.
Start by getting to know your finances. Be aware of your household income and your household debt including credit card debt, mortgage, auto loans, student loans, etc. Once you know your finances, you can make yourself a budget. This will serve as the blueprint for your everyday finances to help get them on track.
That's the easy part. Once you have the basics in place, you'll want to arm yourself with the knowledge to make the best financial decisions moving forward. Some things you'll want to learn about are:
Many banks have programs in place to help their customers increase their financial literacy. Some offer seminars, literature in their branch lobbies and/or consumer education modules on their websites, including glossaries of banking terms. In addition, many banks offer online tools for financial planning, like budgeting tools or tools to help diminish debt. Banks may also offer financial education programs for kids and teenagers. Check with your bank to see what resources they can offer you.
There's no better time to start, so take advantage of Financial Literacy Month to get a jump-start on increasing your financial knowledge.

Establishing a healthy credit history is a responsible action of mature adult and very important to ensure a financially bright future. With the escalating costs of goods and services, it is critical you work towards this goal. In a previous blog, I wrote about five actions that help your credit score, but what about behaviors that hurt your credit score? Ask yourself if any of the following five situations pertain to you.
This may sound like a no brainer, but missing a credit card payment could be detrimental to both your current and future credit. Missing just one payment can make your credit score drop. If you make a habit of missing payments because you don't see an immediate effect, think again. While you're feeling comfortable, your credit score is plummeting, making it more challenging for you to obtain credit in the future. To add salt to the wound, delaying or missing payments will typically result in a late payment penalty, making it more challenging for you to obtain credit in the future.
You have paid off your credit card; congratulations! Some people who are tired of debt immediately choose to close a credit card they have just paid off. You might want to think twice before you close out those old accounts as about 30% of your credit score is based on the amount of debt you have charged. The lower the amount of credit card debt you carry, the better it is for your credit rating due to your "credit utilization rate." By closing old credit card accounts, you could throw off your credit utilization rate and unintentionally lower your credit score.
I know it can be tempting to say yes to the smiling sales associate at your favorite retail store who offers you a 15% discount for opening a credit card, but just say no. Retail credit cards carry much higher interest rates than national brand cards, and applying for that new credit card triggers a hard inquiry on your credit report. Each inquiry of credit may cause a "ding" on your credit score. These inquiries add up fast, and may have a detrimental impact on your credit score.
If you open too many new accounts in a short period of time, you may be risking your credit score. Each time your credit is "run" by a creditor to determine your eligibility, your credit score takes a hit. Hard inquiries, as mentioned above, can deduct about 5 points from your score. A familiar example of this happening is someone who purchases a house and opens multiple credit cards at the same time to buy furnishings and other items for their new home. Restrain yourself and buy a little at a time.
When shopping for a large loan, like a home mortgage, it is important to shop around for a low interest rate. In fact, interest rates can change daily, and could be much lower a month from your first credit inquiry. However, shopping too long for a loan could actually hurt your credit score. Although mortgages and auto loan inquiries will appear on your credit report, they will only count once as long as they are done within a short period of time, typically within 45 days. So, when you make the decision to shop, make sure you're ready.

Chilean Money
The Local Currency
The following are the Coins and Notes / Bills in Chile:
Chilean Coins: $1 - $5 - $10 - $50 - $100 - $500
Chilean Notes / Bills: $1,000 - $2,000 - $5,000 - $10,000 - $20,000 - ($500*)
* There is a very rare $500 note floating around which is still legal tender but you will almost always see the coin version. If you find one, keep it as a souvenir.
In local Chilean slang (especially with the young people), the $100 peso coin is called 'una gamba' and $1000 is called 'una luca'. You can use multiples of Luca e.g. $8000 = 8 luca(s) The final 's' is not often pronounced. When you have one million pesos, it is usually called 'un palo' or 'un guatón'.
By the way, in the regions (outside of Santiago) don't pay the bus drivers with anything less than a $10 coin as they will often throw them out the window while looking at you in disgust. Also, don't pay the bus driver with anything larger than a $2000 note unless you are paying for more than a couple of people. There is now a special prepaid card for buses called the BIP card which is used in the local buses in Santiago.
The $1 and $5 peso coins are quite worthless in Chile. The only use they have is to fill up a jar or a bottle for decoration.
Changing Money in Chile
You will have no problem changing US dollars into Chilean Pesos here in Chile. (Currently the exchange rate in Chile is US$1 = CH$614 - 24 Abril 2015)
You will probably get a better deal changing US dollars here in Chile instead of finding a place that actually has Chilean pesos in the States or other countries. Bring most of your money in Traveler's checks for safety as they can be replaced in no time if they 'disappear'. Also bring some US bills (in fairly good condition) just in case.
Cash does get a better exchange rate than traveler's checks but shop around. Most Money Exchange Houses (known in Chile as 'Casa de Cambios') are found together in the same area. In Santiago there are many Casa de Cambios side by side on Agustinas (street) between Bandera and Ahumada. The exchange rates are not so good in the Shopping malls but they are handy on the weekend in an emergency. We have found that the AFEX branches have been the most reliable Money Exchange Offices in our experience.
NEVER change money on the street. Most of these so called Street Exchangers WILL rip you off either by a rigged calculator, giving you false notes, just running off with the money or will have a friend that will 'relieve' you off your cash once you go around the corner. You will see some signs on Agustinas in a variety of languages saying pretty much the same thing.
There are some Touristy places that will accept US dollars though the exchange rate is never good and try not to change money at the airport except in an emergency since it's at a really bad exchange rate.
There are many ATM money machines throughout Chile and most of them can be used to take out money from back home but please verify with your bank first.
Credit Cards
Most major credit cards are excepted in Chile. No more worrying about falsified signatures, As of 14th July 2009 a system came into place regarding the use of credit cards in Chile. Now, if you want to buy something with a credit card you must have a 4-digit secret code called a PinPass. The reason for this change is to help prevent credit card fraud which is good both for the card holder and businesses.... in theory! Some international credit cards will still need a signature instead.
Make sure the credit card never leaves your sight. There have been many reports of Credit cards being cloned, especially at restaurants. Digital chips are about to be included in local credit cards to stop this problem.
Giving Tips
For more information about giving tips in Restaurants, Supermarkets, to taxi drivers, to tour guides and more, visit our Tipping in Chile post.
Buying things in Chile
For my personal experience about buying things in Chile, visit my article about Buying things in Chile.
Chilean Tax
The local tax in Chile is called I.V.A (Impuesto al Valor Agregado - Value Added Tax). The I.V.A tax rose to 19% in October 2003. The prices that appear in the stores almost always have the tax included.
U.F. (Unidad de Fomento)
Sometimes you will see prices in newspapers or on billboards selling houses and apartments in U.F. (Unidad de Fomento). This is a unit of money used mainly in business and formal financial transactions that involve large sums and was created at a time when inflation was high. It is frequently used with rental contracts and buying and selling homes or businesses. The rate of the UF varies daily according to the monthly inflation rate and the exact figure can be found in the newspapers. There are no physical coins or notes. It is only a value.
You can find today's U.F. value on the Central Bank's website Chilean U.F. Value
(1 U.F. = $24,730.10 as at 25th August 2015).

Years ago, when I got into show business, the singer Lou Rawls told me: "Each time you walk out of the house, you're on stage." I've taken care of my appearance ever since.
My face usually looks pretty good. It's smooth and pimple-free because I scrub it with a loofah every day, but in a year or two I'm thinking of getting a Lifestyle Lift. They lift your chin, your eyes, and it takes only an hour. You look normal, but 20 years younger. I think surgery is fine – just find a good doctor. Don't get messed up by going to the cheapest one.
I put on just enough make-up to look normal. Cosmetics companies have finally woken up to the fact that black women use cosmetics, too, though I still find it difficult to find my exact colour. Every black woman is not black – they might be caramel, chocolate. MAC has a good match for me. I use a tiny bit of black pencil above and below the eyes – it brings them out – brown on my brows, mascara, a little colour on my cheeks and lips, then I'm good to go.
When I'm getting dressed, I don't look in the mirror until I'm done. I'm my own worst critic. I carry a little stretch instrument with me that I use to exercise my arms each morning. I keep doing it until I can't stand it any more – usually about 10 minutes. I'd like to change my midriff – have more of an hourglass figure – and my arms. Then I'd look like Michelle Obama. She has the greatest arms I've ever seen.

Hi Monique - It looks like congratulations are in order for your new little one!! How is traveling with little ones?
Thanks! Its fun. Andy (my 6 yr old son) absolutely loves going on the airplane and going back and forth between Connecticut and Florida. When we drive, we always have to stop at South of the Border for him. We've got a list going of all the places we want to go and he recently asked if we could go to Africa to see the lions. He's pretty easy going when it comes to traveling. I'm hoping Adriya (my 2 week old daughter) will be as easy as he is. So far, she's really quiet and laid back.

...uh, the link I provided. But then, LP seems to struggle (mechanically) with frequencies over 10 kHz (other link).
If anyone here thinks I'm wrong, prove it. I provided links - now it's your turn...
Edits: 04/17/17Follow Ups:
I provided you with a link to a you tube video showing the FR from a crappy turntable well above 20kHz (all the way out to 60kHz). Just imagine how much better a hi-end turntable and cartridge would be.
Did you view it?
We can go back and forth on this but you need to do some studying and try to understand the issues at hand.
You clearly have very little knowledge.
Have Fun and Enjoy the Music
"Still Working the Problem"
I'd prefer a study or an expert's opinion.
If you tube is the best you can do, then *you* have very little knowledge.
First of all, I am an expert.
To find out what the FR of a LP is one needs to measure it.
That is what the guy in the you tube video is doing.
What part of the video did you not understand?
Have Fun and Enjoy the Music
"Still Working the Problem"
I respect you knowledge, I just thought a hard-paper would be better than you tube.
However, it's too confusing for the limits of LP. Search on chat rooms and you'll get all different answers -15, 18, 20 even 40 kHz. Then, is this musical content ? noise ? harmonics ? Can the stylus actually read signals that far up (without side effects) ?
The record-pressing site I linked was very clear: cut off at 16 kHz. Did you read this ?
The main concern here is overall sound quality: speed accuracy (belt LP gets an "F' here), inner-groove pressure -leading to distortion of our music, etc.
Edits: 04/18/17 04/18/17
Let's examine what you find in the link posted here.
" The high frequency response of vinyl depends on the cartridge. CD4 records contained frequencies up to 50 kHz, while some high-end turntable cartridges have frequency responses of 120 kHz while having flat frequency response over the audible band (e.g. 20 Hz to 15 kHz +/-0.3 dB).[5] In addition, frequencies of up to 122 kHz have been experimentally cut on LP records."
"Mechanically then, LPs cannot record much beyond 10 kHz without using a smaller-than-standard stylus. In fact the cutoff of frequencies recorded today is around 24 kHz ."
Note the qualification with this one. This refers to using a conical, not a multi-radial or Shibata stylus designed for higher frequency response.
There's no sense in trying to debate a 'right fighter'. They'll dig themselves into a deeper and deeper hole in their futile attempts to prove themselves 'right'. Arguing with them is a fools errand. All it accomplishes is to provide them another platform for their madness. Put this guy on 'ignore' and you'll starve his never ending appetite for inane blather.
IOW - quit feeding the troll :-)
Have Fun and Enjoy the Music
"Still Working the Problem"
If you prefer an expert opinion Ijust gave you one in another response. But speaking of expert opinions can you cite one actual cutting engineer who agrees with your assertions on the high frequency response of vinyl?
The (linked) vinyl-pressing website is one, Roger Sander's white paper is another. I trust Sanders because he's an industry veteran.
The limit is dependent on many factors -it could be 15 to 25 kHz. The point is after 16 kHz, it's all noise and distortion. Let the mass-market listen to these -we're audiophiles, I thought.
Even though you're trying (hard) to prove I'm wrong, this is a minor issue. It's the sound quality of LP that matters. And it's doing TERRIBLE if we look at what classical labels use to record *and* what reviewers use for playback.
Edits: 04/18/17
Roger Sander's white paper is another...
You mean like his *interconnect test* ? :)
What actual real world records did he actually engineer? Kevin Gray, the mastering engineer I cited has a resume that is second to none. Did you read what he said about vinyl's frequency response?
