Pat Paterson
No. 36 in a series of 50 from Player's Navy Cut Cigarettes
Pat Paterson was born in Scotland on April 7th, 1911, and made her first stage appearance during her Christmas holidays in a pantomime. This was at ten years of age; when she was fifteen she ran away to London, arriving with £5, and plenty of optimism. After securing a role in a touring company, she appeared in Andre Charlot's cabaret shows, and later won fame as one of 'The Two Pairs' who became popular on the wireless. She had appeared in more than a dozen British films when Hollywood took her, and she made a great hit in her first American film, Bottoms Up. She has also appeared in Call It Luck.

If Congress cannot reach a compromise to extend the Bush tax rate cuts and a political standoff results in taxes going up for everyone on Jan. 1, the already anemic economic recovery will be in grave jeopardy. The earlier this issue is resolved, the sooner taxpayers can know their expected 2011 tax bill and adjust their spending accordingly.
Recognizing this, both the Republican and Democratic parties agree on extending tax cuts for those making less than $250,000. The contention concerns those making incomes above that cutoff. In their effort to get the extension for high-income earners, Republicans seem willing to hold up the extension for all.
The argument
The objection against extending tax cuts for the "rich" is that they have a smaller "economic multiplier effect," that is, they save much more of each after-tax dollar than those in lower income brackets. Consequently, each dollar of their tax cut results in less job creation and economic stimulation. Moreover, a portion of their savings goes to investments out of the country. Consequently, extending the tax cut for this group is regarded as too much deficit reduction foregone for too small a boost to recovery.
We cannot afford a prolonged debate. Despite postelection rhetoric to the contrary, a solution on extending the Bush tax cuts for everyone is possible without either side losing face and with the added benefit of being able to fund much-needed infrastructure repairs. Recessions are a good time to repair infrastructure since this activity creates jobs in the short run and provides long-lived capital to support rapid growth when recovery comes.
Our proposal: A win-win solution
Extend the Bush tax cuts for all income levels, but treat the tax cut extension for incomes above $250,000 in a special two-part way.
First, tax earned incomes above $250,000 at 2001 rates.
Then, in exchange for these higher tax payments, give those "rich" taxpayers government bonds maturing no less than five years from their tax payment date. The par value of bonds received would equal the dollar value of the extra taxes paid, and the coupon would reflect current market rates.
Second, use the cash generated by the extra tax payments to create a National Recovery and Reconstruction Fund earmarked to improve our crumbling infrastructure.
Those making less than $250,000 per year win because they continue to be taxed at the lower Bush rates. High income earners, the so-called "rich," are indeed singled out for special treatment, but they are winners as well. They will realize their tax cut when they redeem or sell their "National Recovery Bonds," and during the interim, their money is earning interest.
The nation wins by putting these "forced savings" dollars to work creating jobs and improving the physical infrastructure of the country. The economic multiplier effect of this investment will help accelerate our economic recovery and, through modernization and repair of national infrastructure assets, support economic growth when the recovery comes.
The cost
Much has been made of the "cost" of extending the tax cuts for all taxpayers. The Pew Economic Policy Group estimates that lost government tax revenues would amount to more than $3 trillion in the next 10 years. However, this calculation is a "static scoring" model that simply multiplies taxpayer income by the proposed change in tax rates. It does not consider the cost to the economy resulting from resources that remain idle and skills that erode through disuse.
We are in the midst of a steep recession, and the goal is to return to full employment. Failure to extend these tax cuts will harm the economy for an unknown period into the future. Through the use of National Recovery Bonds, the economy gets a large stimulus with little or no additional cost since the borrowed money will be used to create productive assets of lasting value, which will enable the recovery, when it finally arrives, to be more robust.

The TN3-19.12 antibody reacts with rat and mouse tumor-necrosis factor (TNF) proteins (also known as TNF-α) . Moreover, the TN3-19.12 antibody is reported to crossreact with rabbit TNF, but it does not crossreact with mouse lymphotoxin-α (LT-α, also known as TNF-β) nor with human TNF. The immunogen used to generate the TN3-19.12 hybridoma was E. coli-expressed, purified recombinant mouse TNF protein. This monoclonal antibody has been reported to neutralize the bioactivities of mouse, rat and rabbit TNF. This antibody is routinely tested by ELISA. Other applications were tested during antibody development only or reported in the literature.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 3/11/2013 (1384 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The inquest unravelling how Brian Sinclair died after waiting 34 hours at the HSC emergency ward in 2008 has adjourned until January, but the testimony to date has revealed some telling truths. Common threads among the recollections of the two days he spent quietly dying amid nurses, security guards and others in line for care point to classic signs of a massive medical error in the making.
First, nurses and security guards questioned at the inquest made undeserved assumptions about why Mr. Sinclair, who died for want of a change of his urinary catheter, sat almost in the same place over two days. Staff testified they thought the legless, aboriginal man in a wheelchair was silently sitting in front of the TV because he needed to sober up, sleep it off or just wanted shelter, noting homeless people often came in for those reasons. But Mr. Sinclair was not homeless, and there's no evidence he was drunk.
Also, nurses and security guards dismissed repeated pleadings they attend him from people also waiting for care. Finally, a woman demanded attention for the man who was already dead.
Medical errors usually result from not one, but a cascade of critical mistakes. The inquest is showing what widespread assumptions and the dismissal of warnings can do. All of Manitoba's hospitals should be heeding these early lessons to stress the need for vigilance and a higher duty of care in the ER and all wards.

DAVIS, District Judge.
Before the Court are Smith's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment Under 35 U.S.C. § 287(a) Due to Halliburton's Failure to Mark (Docket No. 121), Halliburton's Motion to Dismiss as Moot Smith's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment Under 35 U.S.C. § 287(a) Due to Halliburton's Failure to Mark (Docket No. 152), and Halliburton's Motion for Leave to File Delayed Response to Smith's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment Under 35 U.S.C. § 287(a) Due to Halliburton's Failure to Mark (Docket No. 154). Having considered the parties submissions and the underlying procedural history, the Court
This action involves Smith's alleged infringement of Halliburton's patents concerning drill bits and methods of designing drill bits used in down-hole oil and gas drilling operations. Specifically, Halliburton has sued Smith for making drill bits that allegedly infringe Patents 6,213,225 (the "'225 Patent"), 6,095,262 (the "'262
Smith alleges that Halliburton did not mark patented products with the appropriate patent numbers. It is undisputed that the '225 Patent, issued on August 1, 2000, is the earliest-issued of the patents in dispute. It is also undisputed that Halliburton made, sold, and offered for sale its patented drill bits between the August 1, 2000 issuance and this action's filing on September 6, 2002. According to Smith, Halliburton marked neither the '225 nor '262 Patent numbers on its products until "some time after July 26, 2002," and did not mark the '577 Patent number until after suit was filed.
Smith moved for summary judgment alleging that Halliburton' failure to mark precludes recovery of damages under 35 U.S.C. § 287. Under the marking statute, 35 U.S.C. § 287(a), to recover damages for infringement, a patentee must adequately mark patented products with the patent number or give the alleged infringer notice of patent protection. Smith argues that Halliburton's failure to mark patented drill bits violates the Marking statute and precludes recovery of any damages that may be incurred under the '262 and '225 Patents before July 26, 2002 and under the '577 Patent before September 6, 2002.
Halliburton responds by arguing that damages should begin to accrue on all patents at issue on August 1, 2002. With regard to the '262 and '225 Patents, Halliburton alternatively argues that the Marking statute includes no "shipping" requirement or that Halliburton marked and shipped its drill bits prior to August 1, 2002. With regard to the '577 Patent, Halliburton argues that the Marking statute does not apply because Halliburton has asserted only the '577 Patent's method claims. Thus, Halliburton contends that damages under the '577 Patent should begin to accrue on its issuance date, July 2, 2002. However, "in an effort to simplify the damage calculations [Halliburton] has
Before the Court can address the substantive marking issue, the Court must first consider this issue's unusual procedural posture. The certificate of service indicates that Smith served its motion for partial summary judgment on March 25, 2004 by Federal Express overnight delivery. Thus, pursuant to Local Rule CV-7, Halliburton's response was due April 9, 2004. L.R. CV-7 ("a party opposing a motion has 15 days from the date the motion was served in which to serve and file a response and any supporting documents"); see also Prince v. Poulos, 876 F.2d 30, 32 n. 1 (5th Cir.1989) ("Since Federal Express is not a public authority, they are not a form of `mail' and need not be utilized under Rule 25(a)."). However, due to attempts between the parties to resolve the marking issue without the Court's intervention, Halliburton failed to file a timely response. Negotiations having apparently failed, on April 19, Smith addressed a letter to the Court requesting the Court to grant Smith's motion to dismiss as unopposed.
The Court is inclined to grant Halliburton's motion to file a late response. Although Halliburton's response was 11 days late in this case, the Court will accept it for two reasons. First, the Court finds that an 11 day delay will not prejudice Smith in this circumstance. Second, the Court generally encourages litigants to resolve issues without judicial intervention and would not punish Halliburton in this instance for making good faith attempts to resolve the marking issue.
However, the Court denies Halliburton's motion to dismiss Smith's motion. First, the Court notes that Halliburton's response and motion to dismiss are identical and thus duplicative. Second, in this instance, the Court would rather accept a late response than rule on the possible implications of allowing parties to disguise late-filed responses as motions to dismiss other motions. Because the Court appreciates parties' attempts to resolve certain issues without judicial intervention, the Court chooses to consider Halliburton's motion to dismiss as a good faith filing based on a stipulation to limit damages rather than a procedural end-run around this Court's deadlines. The Court denies Halliburton's Motion to Dismiss as Moot Smith's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment Under 35 U.S.C. § 287(a) Due to Halliburton's Failure to Mark (Docket No. 152) as duplicative of Halliburton's response to Smith's motion, but will consider the arguments and stipulations as incorporated into Halliburton's response.
Smith's motion for summary judgment raises two separate issues for the Court to resolve. First, in regard to the '262 and '225 Patents, the parties agree that Halliburton began marking its products in
The Marking Statute
Patentees must comply with the Marking statute in order to recover damages for infringement. The statute provides in relevant part:
35 U.S.C. § 287(a). Generally, under the marking statute, a party "is entitled to damages from the time when it either began marking its products in compliance with section 287(a) or when it actually notified [the infringer] of its infringement, whichever is earlier." American Medical Systems, Inc. v. Medical Engineering Corp., 6 F.3d 1523, 1537 (Fed.Cir.1993). "In determining whether the patentee marked its products sufficiently to comply with the constructive notice requirement, the focus is not on what the infringer actually knew, but on whether the patentee's actions were sufficient, in the circumstances, to provide notice in rem." Nike, Inc. v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 138 F.3d 1437, 1446 (Fed.Cir.1998).
The patentee bears the burden of proving compliance by a preponderance of the evidence. Nike, Inc. v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 138 F.3d 1437, 1446 (Fed.Cir.1998). Compliance with the marking statute is a question of fact. Gart v. Logitech, Inc., 254 F.3d 1334, 1339 (Fed.Cir.2001) cert. denied, 534 U.S. 1114, 122 S.Ct. 921, 151 L.Ed.2d 886 (2002). Consequently, the marking issue "is properly decided upon summary judgment when no reasonable jury could find that the patentee either has or has not provided actual notice to the particular defendants by informing them of his patent and their infringement of it." Id. Summary judgment shall be rendered when the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Fed.R. Civ.P. 56(c); Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323-25, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed.2d 265 (1986); Ragas v. Tennessee Gas Pipeline Co., 136 F.3d 455, 458 (5th Cir.1998). In determining whether a genuine issue for trial exists, the court views all inferences drawn from the factual record in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248, 106 S.Ct. 2505, 91 L.Ed.2d 202 (1986); Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio, 475 U.S. 574, 587, 106 S.Ct. 1348, 89 L.Ed.2d 538 (1986).
The '262 and '225 Patents
Where a patentee has distributed unmarked products, damages do not begin
Id. at 1538. The Court finds that American Medical Systems applies here because the summary judgment evidence indicates that Halliburton initially shipped unmarked products and subsequently began marking and shipping marked products.
The Court finds that Halliburton has raised a genuine issue of material fact as to when it began shipping marked products. Halliburton does not dispute that it failed to mark its products with the '262 and '225 patent numbers until July 26, 2002. Halliburton's Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 152), p. 2.
Halliburton's Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 152), Exhibit A. The Court declines to accept Smith's argument that Halliburton's affidavit testimony suggests only when the bits were marked and gives no indication as to when marked bits were shipped. In this summary judgment context, the Court draws all inferences in favor of the non-movant
The Court also finds that Halliburton has raised a genuine issue of material fact as to when it stopped shipping unmarked
The '577 Patent
Smith also argues that Halliburton cannot recover damages prior to this suit's filing date because Smith failed to mark the '577 Patent number on its products. Although the '577 Patent contains both method and apparatus claims, Halliburton only asserts method claims in this action. However, Halliburton never refutes Smith's assertion that Halliburton made and sold products protected under the '577 Patent. Instead, Halliburton asserts, without citation, that "when the patent discloses method and apparatus claims, if only method claims are asserted in the lawsuit and only method claims are found to be infringed, then the marking limitation does not apply." Halliburton's Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 152), p. 4.
Where a patent contains both method and apparatus claims, and there is a tangible item by which notice of the asserted method can be given, the patentee must mark the tangible item to comply with the Marking statute, 35 U.S.C. § 287. American Medical Systems, Inc. v. Medical Engineering Corp., 6 F.3d 1523, 1538-39 (Fed.Cir.1993); Honeywell International Inc. v. Hamilton Sundstrand Corp., 2001 WL 66345, *4 (D.Del.2001); Mosel Vitelic Corp. v. Micron Technology, Inc., 2000 WL 1728351 (D.Del.2000) (holding that "the only time that the notice provisions of the federal statute do not come into play is when the patent is directed to only a method or process"). The Federal Circuit set forth this principle in American Medical Systems by declaring:
6 F.3d at 1538-39.
In the present case, there is no evidence that Halliburton marked products covered by the '577 before it filed suit. As noted above, Halliburton does not deny that it produced and sold tangible items covered by the '577 Patent. Also, the summary judgment evidence does not indicate when Halliburton begin marking products with the '577 Patent number. Unlike the '262 and '225 Patents, Halliburton provided no summary judgment evidence indicating when, if ever, it began to mark products with the '577 Patent number. Moreover, a deposition attached to Smith's motion indicates that the '577 Patent was not marked along with the '262 and '225 Patents in late July 2002. Under American Medical Systems Halliburton should have marked its products with the '557 Patent number because Halliburton distributed tangible items created by the '557 methods and by which Halliburton could have given notice
In sum, the Court finds that Halliburton has presented sufficient summary judgment evidence to overcome Smith's motion regarding the '262 and '225 Patents but has presented no evidence to overcome the motion regarding the '577 Patent. Although the Court has found sufficient summary judgment evidence to raise a fact issue that Halliburton began shipping products marked with the '225 and '262 patent numbers in late July, the evidence does not suggest a firm date. Thus, to simplify evidentiary presentation and damages calculations, the Court accepts Halliburton's stipulation that damages on the ' 225 and '262 Patents begin accruing on August 1, 2002. However, the Court does so without prejudice to Smith to present evidence at trial that Halliburton did not ship marked products until a later date. Additionally, the Court holds that damages on the '577 Patent began accruing when suit was filed on September 6, 2002.

Heaven's Basement, 'Filthy Empire' – Album Stream
Remember this name now. Heaven's Basement could be one of 2013's breakout bands and they're ready to share their debut album, 'Filthy Empire.' The U.K. rockers are currently offering a stream of the disc coinciding with today's (Feb. 5) release.
The John Feldmann-produced effort is an upbeat rocker, featuring the new single 'Fire, Fire.' A video for the track can be seen here. Other standout cuts include 'Welcome Home,' 'Nothing Left to Lose' and 'Lights Out in London.'
Singer Aaron Buchanan says of the effort, "We want to bring back that element of danger. We don't want to be a safe band." The group has already started making inroads in the U.K., and are ready to bust open the doors in the States.
The group has already confirmed an appearance at the Rock on the Range festival in Columbus May 17-19 and will also perform at the Download Festival in their native U.K. in June.

text: Politics 8 October 2009 Enough to make true Geordies cry Sign up for our weekly email * I have made a bid for Newcastle United. Can't reveal how much, as my backers like total secrecy, but we are thrilled about the latest nonsense with Keegan, having to pay him £2m (in fact, with all the nonsenses these past few years). Having tossers in charge has played into our hands - so has getting demoted. Everyone thinks the club is shite, and nothing can save it. Hee hee. What a bargain we is going to get. I honestly can't think of a better club to buy in the whole of the UK. Notts County? Yeh, I was offered that. I could see the advantages for throwing money around, but come on, you're having a laugh. Portsmouth? No chance. How would you ever get your money back - or have any fun? Liverpool? They are on the blower all the time, but like Man United, the people selling are no mugs. It would be safer to buy the Crown jewels from Del Boy. Leeds United? Ken Bates is a pushover, all bluster and splutter. Unknown to him, I have most of the shares already through my company Hunter Holdings, based in Jersey, controlled by HD Int of Geneva, which is part of Shagg Investments of Bequia in the West Indies. Our registered office is a hut on Lower Bay. I go there every two years, if I can find the key, and have a sail in my little dinghy, Hot Shagg. The Leeds investment is a sleeper. Ditto with Arsenal. Just acquired another 100 shares at £8,500 each, but will wait till the Krankies or the Dabitoffs take over, then they'll have to offer me double. But Newcastle, that will be a 100 per cent takeover. I feel sentimental about them from my Durham days, and I've got money to spend, not leaving it to my kids. What a club, what history, what players they've had - Hughie Gee, Wor Jackie, Gazza, Waddler, Wanka, Fatty Arbuckle (note to subs, please check spellings). And what pots they have won - four top titles, six FA Cups. Back in the Dark Ages, but shows it can be done. It's the capital of the Geordie nation, focus of all local pride and culture, unlike any other provincial capital in Europe. The nearest counterpart is Barça, but there are two big competing clubs in Barcelona. Newcastle has only one. Not just an opportunity. A monopoly. Keep your feet still, Geordie hinnie, away the lads, two more pints of Newcastle Brown, canny lad, the Blaydon Races, Northern Rock . . . These emotive points of reference bring tears to the eyes of true Geordies - hold on, perhaps delete Northern Rock. Focus on the cash flowing in from those 52,000 idiots, I mean loyal fans. Tell them any old cobblers, unveil a new messiah every season, probably even at half-time or throw-ins, and they'll stampede to buy the season tickets, the shirts, the pies. OK, I will tell you the offer - £50m, a snip. My partners have money, loads of it, but naturally we are borrowing. Our security is the club, which we haven't got, but will use it to guarantee our loan (so if it all goes pear-shaped, we lose nothing, the debts all belong to the club, boom boom). No one will trace the true owners, apart from, perhaps, the sod who nicked the key to my Bequia beach hut. You think I'm kidding? Let me point out one thing. When it is announced that Newcastle have "new owners", how will you or anyone else know that I am NOT behind the deal?

Before the doors opened and the guest of honour arrived, one curling fan at the Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings was already painting the town burgundy.
Decked out in a burgundy wig and dyed beard, Hans Madsen of Yorkton, Sask. said he was saluting Ron Burgundy, the oafish newscaster played by comedic actor Will Ferrell in the movie Anchorman. Ferrell is calling an end in character at this afternoon's opening draw.
Madsen said his kids told him who Ron Burgundy is.
"I don't own a TV — my kids said 'you gotta see this guy'." The fun-loving fan who follows women's curling events all over the world has 28 wigs he wears to the events and today chose burgundy.
The opening ceremonies began at 11 a.m.

Island Legend: Legend of the Seas Cruise Review by travelgma
Overall Member Rating
Island Legend
Destination: Southern Caribbean
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
over the two hours that we waited we were constantly reminded to wash our hands under water as long as it takes to sing happy birthday. For the first day or two crew would serve at the Windjammer, no self -serve.
Crew were constantly washing doors, rails, etc. I think by the third day it was back to normal.
Overall, I thought that the Legend was a beautiful ship with wonderful big windows to give you incredible sea views in dining room and entire centrum area.
This is a much smaller ship than the new ones so does not have as many different areas. We booked this cruise for the itinerary, which included Granada, Aruba and Bonaire. These were More islands that we had not seen yet.
The entertainment on this ship was excellent except for a group that played in the centrum. I did not think the one particular singer was very good or wasn't fond of comedian on last night. Arial performance was breathtaking. The first performance was cancelled because of rough seas and gale winds.
The production shows are very good and they gave a Christmas show on the last sea day at 4:30.
Food , as always, is subjective. We both felt that the dining room food was better on the Legend than on the Independence last year same time. Had an excellent waiter on MTD who knew our name. Windjammer was excellent and much variety up until the last couple of days when it seemed like it was the same as day before. We never had trouble finding a table and servers would help you find one if asked. Service here was excellent. Dirty plates were gone as soon as you finished.
Loved the solarium and Park Café. Service here was hit and miss. Once, my order was taken and completely forgotten and no apology when reminded. Another time the server didn't know how to heat the item I had chosen and I had to take it back (Still Cold) But overall this was one of my favorite places.
Our cabin was one of the new balconies on deck 6 . Everything was new and modern and designed very well, but this is the smallest balcony cabin that we have ever had. Only room for 1 chair and very small desk area. Modern sink and faucet but my husband had a hard time using it(not good for larger hands)
There was also engine noise and a squeaky sliding door during very windy conditions. We were on port side about 4 cabins from rear of ship. It was good location to view most ports.
Did not like the casino. It seemed small and crowded even when no one was there. Slots seemed tight.
Loved the Crown Lounge. Even tho small now it was elegant with gorgeous views.
We really enjoyed the Library,Cafe/Latitudes on the 6th floor. This was a good vantage point also to watch the arial performances and the centrum in general. I agree with another poster that there should be more chairs here. I found the server at the café latitudes to be unfriendly and not helpful(disappointing) but you could get complimentary sweet rolls and cookies here.
Overall this was a great cruise and I loved the Legend Less

Yes I said it, and no I'm serious. Only exception is when the Pacers play Shaq, I would be in favor of starting Pollard.
The question of Foster vs Croshere comes down to this. Foster plays equally well whether he starts or comes off the bench. Croshere plays a lot better as a starter. That is a flaw in Croshere's game and perhaps he should not be rewarded for it, but I think the team would be better with Croshere starting. Not because the team is really better with Cro in there, but because Cro will fall back almost out of the rotation if he doesn't start, and there are times we need Croshere's offense at the power forward position.
As far as who finishes, it depends on the matchups and depends on the score in the last 5 minutes. If the Pacers are behind by more than 5 points, and the matchups are not terrible, then I would be in favor of Croshere finishing, if Pacers trail by less than 5 or lead then Foster should finish
Of course this end of game scenerio does not take into account the very end when the other team is fouling, in that case Cro should finish, but teams generally don't start fouling until the last 40 seconds.
Croshere it is up to you to keep up your excellent play.
I think the more difficult question is whose minutes get cut when Foster does come back. Certainly Cro's will be cut even if he starts, but that is only about 10-15 minutes and we know Jeff will play more than that.
The additional 10-15 minutes that Jeff will take away from someone other than Croshere has to either come from Harrison or Granger (or I suppose it could come from Fred as Ron could play more backup shooting guard, but I think this is highly unlikely knowing Carlisle) Whose minutes should be cut, DG and DH or maybe both. I suppose J.O could play a few less minutes but that is not likely.

Pryor Creek, more commonly known as Pryor, is a city in and county seat of Mayes County, Oklahoma, United States.[1] The population was 8,659 at the 2000 census, compared to 9,539 in the 2010 census.
Originally named Coo-Y-Yah, Cherokee for Huckleberry, it was renamed Pryor Creek in 1887,, the name of the local railroad station (named for the creek). Due to confusion in distinguishing handwritten mailing addresses to Pryor Creek and Pond Creek, the U.S. Postal Service name for the city was shortened to Pryor, though the official name of the city remains Pryor Creek.

We all want to eat well and use nutrition to support our health. I believe that the practice of good nutrition can address many health challenges we are faced with. There are many approaches to nutrition: Atkins, vegetarianism, macrobiotics, raw foods, Weston Price, the list goes on. It can be come very confusing to determine which are accurate and the best choice for you. The following guideline is based on my study of nutrition as well as the observation I have made of my patients. By observing my patients I get to see first hand how all the above mentioned approaches to nutrition pan out. I have used the word good several times now in this dialogue. Good and the concept of quality are what I want to talk about. In evaluating all the approaches to nutrition, be it vegetarianism or Atkins I can find both positive and negatives things about these individual approaches. After 17 years of practice I have come to the conclusion that the quality of food has more of an impact than what philosophy or approach one adopts. The concept of quality and good need to be defined. In my mind quality and good are equally important. In my exploration of nutritional fads and philosophy I read very little about the quality of our foods. While I have opinions regarding many nutritional approaches and their inherent weakness and strengths, the quality of the foods my patients consume is of greater concern to me. I would first like to address the notion of good nutrition.
Good Nutrition
Good nutrition is nutrition that supports life. It also means that it prevents disease while promoting health and well being. Common sense tells me that we are provided with all the food to support our bodies right here on our beautiful planet Earth. It makes since to me to consume the foods that are naturally provided for us. A well rounded diet will provide plenty of protein to maintain healthy tissues and immune function. It also will have an a high abundance of fresh vegetables and fruit. Fresh means as close to the vine as possible. High abundance equates to 5-10 servings per day. A serving equals a half cup. Plenty of uncontaminated water is essential for good nutrition. Filtering provides water free of chlorine, pesticides and heavy metal contamination. A rich source of good essential fatty acids from meats, fish, poultry, nuts, eggs, olive oil, flaxseeds and avocadoes, real butter and raw milk are necessary also. ( see hand-out on cholesterol and fat). Enough calories from whole foods to prevent weight loss, but not so much to create weight gain, is also necessary. Grains in the original form are healthy to eat. Brown rice, barley, millet, oats, or quinoa consumed as whole grain (not refined or overly milled such as white flour and pasta ) are healthy in limited quantities. Eat whole foods that you can recognize and identify not something found in a box, can or at a fast food stand with ingredients that you can not even pronounce. Be wary of synthetic or man made sweetners. If you are eating primarily protein, fresh vegetables, fruit, and a few grains there is no room for potato chips, cookies, cakes, candy bars, or other junk food. Please see handout Good Diet for more extensive information.
There is a wealth of information on the risk of cancer and exposure to pesticides and herbicides. For example atrazine, an herbicide, is commonly sprayed on corn. It is also used on many road sides to kill weeds. Atrazine can mimic estrogen in the body and consequently has been associated with breast cancer. Organic foods have 60% more antioxidant properties than vegetables and fruits raised with pesticides and herbicides. We are exposed to many cancer causing environmental pollutants that can be countered by antioxidants. It makes sense to consume foods with the highest quantity of antioxidants in the first place. The quality of meat, poultry, and fish should also be considered. Many toxins are concentrated in the fats of exposed animals. Anyone not eating organic grain fed animals is going to accumulate these toxins in their bodies. The toxins can be pesticides, herbicides, antibiotics, and heavy metals. How a animal is raised impacts the consumer a great deal. The healthier is animal is the more resistant to infection they will be. The mass production of milk, beef and chickens naturally lends itself to diseased animals requiring the constant use of antibiotics. These antibiotics are passed on to you directly from the animal. This does not even take into consideration the inhumanity of our current farming methods. Cows are left in six by two feet stalls for their entire lives. Chickens are packed six to a cage their entire lives. These animals are often fed inferior feed contaminated with fecal and or cancer ridden remains. Farm raised fish are given antibiotics, and red dye. The antibiotics are necessary due to confined quarters and the dye must be added as the fish do not have access to the shrimp that naturally turns their tissues pink. Consuming a sick animal in an effort to create health in your body does not make sense. Many people will tell me that organic foods cost more. Yes, they do and this is because of demand and the labor it takes to produce high quality food. I have yet to meet a person that I do not believe deserves the highest quality food available. The cost of any illness can be very expensive too. Chemotherapy can be around $2000.00 for one month of therapy.
Grains are a large part of the American diet. Unfortunately grains are consumed in essentially a dead state that can not be utilized . Obviously this does not support good quality nutrition. When wheat is milled to make white flour all the important B vitamins and fiber are removed . White flour acts like glue like in the colon ,increasing constipation and general irritation, and leading to such disease as colitis, Crohns, and possibly colon cancer. These dead foods have to be preserved with things like BHT to extend the shelf life and hide the rancid flavor. Many crackers and cereals are so processed that they can not sustain life if feed to laboratory animals. Yet we freely think these are healthy foods to give to our children. Grains require careful preparation because they contain substances that can interfere with absorption of minerals such as calcium, zinc, cooper and magnesium. Phytic acid is a natural substance found in the bran part of the grain. It is an organic acid which binds phosphorus. Other parts of the grain contain enzyme inhibitors. This ensures that seeds and grains propagate at the right time. If they sprouted early they would die. To remove the phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors, simple soaking, sprouting or using a fermentation process on grain will makes the breads, cereals and crackers we all love a nutritional food. Traditional sour dough breads are an example of this. The cook book
Nourishing Traditions has many good recipes and simple techniques on how to accomplish making grains more nutritious.
How To Eat Well In A Modern Society:
Ok, now that I have your attention (and hopefully motivation )to eat good quality food here are some suggestions on how to accomplish this.
The first thing I hear when talking with patients about improving their diet is I do not have the time to eat well. I say you do not have the time not to eat nourishing foods! What can be more important than having good health? Developing and creating a life style that supports the enjoyment of gathering good quality food is the only solution I have. If you find your self coming up with what feels like rational thoughts as to why you can not eat good quality foods then you are really just finding excuses.
I suggest you consider what your intentions are for changing your diet. Understanding your intentions can reinforce your desire to make changes. Next exploring what your beliefs are that can prevent or create your success. For example, if my intention is to learn to cook whole foods from scratch but I believe I will be too tired then I most likely will be too tired and not ever find the time. If my intention is to enjoying cooking nutritious foods from scratch to support my health and I believe I can create time, I will create the time.
There is absolutely no reason not to eat good quality food. If you do not like to garden or live somewhere with out garden space visit your local farmers market. Research and seek out local farmers who sell to their local community. Join a food buying club such as Azure. Food buying clubs allow you to buy in bulk for cheaper prices while by passing the middle supermarket mark up of food. I cook several meals on the week end so my family can warm up food during the week. That way the excuse of being tired is not used. Make a commitment to eat as much from scratch and home cooked as possible.
All in all the quality of foods are so important to create health. The avoidance of additives and contaminates found in the standard foods available is a huge step toward health. I encourage you to learn more by reading the books I have listed as references. In addition realize that your are creating a whole new way of eating. Changes will come slowly but successfully. Approach your new way of eating with a sense of curiosity and fun.
Steps To Eating Good Quality Food:
- Write down your intentions for changing your diet
- Write down your beliefs regarding what would prevent your success
- Seek out local sources of meat, chicken, lamb, rabbit, eggs
- Take cooking classes that support traditional cooking methods
- Cook ahead to prevent burnout
- Join a food buying club so you can purchase organic high quality foods cheaper
- Raise a garden
- Visit the local farmers market
- Know the source of your foods
- Use a water filter
Quality Of Foods:
The concept of food quality is complex. What determines the quality is dependant upon multiple factors. Everything from where the food was produced to how it was produced and what happens to the food after it is raised or grown must be considered. All of these factors impact the vitality and quality of the food. You may be asking why where the food is produced makes a difference. If you look at the quality of food produced on a large scale or mass production compared to a small scale production you will quickly see the difference. Many public health decisions are made based on the need to protect us when large for profit companies put profit in front of quality of product. Large scale meat producing companies fed cows chicken excrement versus fresh green grass a cow would naturally eat, this leads to out breaks of deadly e-coli infections. The mandatory pasteurization of milk to kill bacteria, destroys all the natural enzymes of milk, which leads to milk intolerance and diseases such as Ulcerative Colitis. The homogenization of milk used to keep cream uniformly mixed in the milk, increases an enzyme called xanthine oxidase. Xantine oxidase is associated with atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. Foods that are highly processed loose the natural vitamin and mineral content and need to be fortified. Fortified means an attempt to put back in what mother nature already provided us in the right proportions and mixture. Synthetic vitamins do not contain enzymes and cofactors which are important for absorption of nutrients , and to achieve optimal health.
Many vegetable oils are hydrogenated to extend the shelf life of the oil. The process of hydrogenation changes the structure of the oil so that it stays solid at room temperature. Unfortunately hydrogenated oils are very difficult to digest. They are associated with an elevation of cholesterol. The rancidity of hydrogenated oils can not be detected. Rancid oils cause oxidation in the blood vessels. Oxidation leads to atherosclerosis and elevated cholesterol. Countries such as Sweden will not import products that contain hydrogenated oils in them because of the high association to cardiovascular disease and cancer. Butter, an unchanged fat is a healthy food and should always be chosen over margarine which contains hydrogenated oil.
I encourage buying the majority of your foods close to home. This accomplishes two things. One you support your local farmer. Two, you are purchasing foods that have been recently sent to the market, which insures higher vitamin and mineral content. The difference between a tomatoes that is grown in the garden and what you can buy in the modern super market is shocking. One tastes sweet and succulent the other literally tastes like cardboard.
Another important factor in the quality of foods is additives. Additives can be anything from sugar, dyes, preservatives, synthetic vitamins, to flavorings. Everyone knows the danger of sugar such as increase risk of diabetes, and obesity. Aspartame is a synthetic sweetener that is highly associated with headaches and seizures. Dyes and food coloring are associated with allergic reactions and hyperactivity in children. MSG is a flavor enhancer causes headaches, and in some people seizures. Nitrosamine is a preservative used in cured meats that causes stomach cancer. Cane sugar is heavily sprayed with atrazine a pesticide known to cause cancer. Even common table salt can be a problem. Common table salt is bleached, sugar and anti caking chemicals are added. This is just a few of the additives used in mass production of foods. You can begin to see why I suggest choosing foods in their original whole unadulterated forms. Eating fresh foods deletes the need for preservatives, dyes and synthetic chemicals.
Steps To Eating Good Quality Food:
- Use a water filter to obtain pure water
- Eat simply
- Take time each week to prepare and gather your food
- Consider canning, freezing, drying, cold storage, fermenting some of your food
- Read labels and select foods with out preservatives, dyes, synthetic chemicals or unknown additives
- Make a commitment to acknowledge that your health is of paramount importance
- Enjoy the process. Do not make food preparation a chore.

This recipe is inspired by the Cuban sandwich. The sweetness of the onions blend well with the spicy mayonnaise. Of course, pork can make one juicy burger!
These burgers have classic Italian American flavors and were inspired by my Italian grandmother. As is typical in Italian cooking, the recipe and techniques are simple.
A recent trip to Spain inspired me to create this burger.
On tasting my first Cuban Sandwich on a trip to Miami, it was love at first bite. My goal was to recreate the flavors and textures in a burger, and I think this recipe is a success.
Since my wife is from Cuba she has introduced me to many of the Cuban flavors. My ultimate favorite Cuban meal is roast pork that has been marinated in Cuban mojito.
As a young girl, my mom and I spent hours together cooking and creating in the kitchen. One of our favorite things to make were traditional Monte Cristo sandwiches.
My family loves sausage & peppers. I decided to twist it a bit for a change and serve it burger style. It was a hit so I decided to enter it.
This Mexican insprired burger uses ground pork & chorizo sausage which gives it a kick, then dusted in a mole powder and grilled.
This is an innovative brunch burger which takes you back to the pubs and restaurants of London.
People tend to think Texas is all about beef, but we have equal love of pork—especially sausage and bacon.
This burger I created captures really authentic flavors of Mexico (and not simply "Tex-Mex†flavors that we in America sometimes think of as authentically Mexican).
I wanted to create a burger that uses the best ingredients from the whole Iberian peninsula, which includes both Spain and Portugal.
I was fortunate to spend several months in Germany and enjoyed many of the foods and flavors I've incorporated into this recipe.
We came home one day from a family outing to discover that our cat had accidentally opened our upright freezer while we were gone (to this day we do not know how she did it).
This burger is a collection of three of my favorite ingredients- sweet potatoes, chiles, and jicama.
This is a pork burger flavored with achiote paste and other Yucatan spices topped with Asadero cheese and bacon served on a bun loaded with Avocado Sour Cream.

Wailoa presents photography by Ambrose
Wailoa Art and Cultural Center presents "Sidewalk Series," an exhibition of photography by Liz Ambrose, through Jan. 24, with an opening reception slated from 5 to 7 p.m. today.
Ambrose established her roots in Hilo in 1986, after living abroad much of her life. She graduated from the University of Hawaii at Hilo with a fine arts degree and is currently pursuing her interest in photography.
"Searching for a new direction for my life, I spent a lot of time walking and looking down at the sidewalks and streets of Hilo. I found beauty in ordinary things that you see every day without really looking at them. Ninety-nine percent of these images were taken in the small downtown area of Hilo," Ambrose said.
Wailoa Art and Cultural Center is a division of State Parks, Department of Land and Natural Resources. It is free and open to the public from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and noon to 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. For more information, call 933-0416 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

TALLAHASSEE — Northern Hillsborough and Pasco voters will have two choices for state senator on the November ballot: the winner of the Republican primary or a blank line for a write-in candidate's name.
It's the same case in a Miami Senate district and in 10 House races across Florida. In both Senate races, only about two-fifths of all eligible voters will choose the person to represent the entire district in the Legislature.
"This is yet another rule that protects politicians from the people," said Sen. Dave Aronberg, D-Greenacres, a staunch critic of the so-called write-in loophole. "It's like an East German election. You've got one name and then you've got a line."
Florida's Constitution says that if all the candidates for an office are in the same party and face no opposition in the general election, then all registered voters will be allowed to vote in the primary. After that was adopted in 1998, both political parties found an easy way around it: recruiting write-in candidates to run as general election opponents.
The state Division of Elections issued an opinion in 2000 saying the opposition doesn't have to be "viable or have a realistic chance of success." And in 2007, a judge in Lake County upheld the law.
Ron Meyer, a Tallahassee attorney who argued the Lake County case, said write-ins were "never on the radar" of the committee that proposed the change: "It was very clear that they didn't intend 'opposition' to be solely a write-in candidate."
Besides the Hillsborough Senate race that pits Rep. Kevin Ambler against Hillsborough County Commissioner Jim Norman, there are 10 House seats with similar closed primaries.
In one, Rep. Darryl Rouson, D-St. Petersburg, is running for re-election in a district that stretches from south St. Petersburg to Sarasota. His Democratic primary against April Sheffield would have been open to all voters — except for the entry of a Sarasota write-in candidate named Joseph Graser.
Graser, 32, works at a Sarasota Winn-Dixie and collects Social Security payments. He also holds the distinction of being the very last candidate to qualify for the ballot, slipping in seconds before the noon deadline on June 18.
"I wasn't afraid of an open primary," said Rouson, who supports Charlie Crist's campaign for U.S. Senate and endorsed Jeb Bush for re-election bid in 2002. "I believe that I might have done stronger had Republicans been allowed to vote in my race."
Aronberg, who is now a candidate for attorney general, has pushed legislation for years that he says would fix the loophole in most cases. It would require write-ins to run in the primary that matches their voter registration. Most write-in candidates are members of the same party as the major-party candidates who are already in the race.
Incoming Senate President Mike Haridopolos was ambivalent about the practice as a campaign strategy.
"There's a lot of smoke there, but I'm not sure there's much fire," said the Merritt Island Republican. "If the other party refuses to put up a candidate, that's their choice."
The write-ins this year are quite the cast of characters.
Derek Crabb is a 30-year-old Odessa resident who works at a Petco store in Carrollwood for $29,500 a year. He also works the night shift at a Target for $2,400 more, campaign records show.
Reached at work recently, Crabb spoke hurriedly.
When asked why he is running, he said, "I don't think I want to comment on that." Pressed for an answer, he said, "Without disclosing too much, I want my voice to be heard." Pressed further, he added, "I'm trying to lay low right now."
A second write-in candidate in the race, 20-year-old Kimberly Renspie, attends Catawba College in Salisbury, N.C., and elections records show she is a resident adviser and an admissions counselor. According to her Facebook profile, she graduates in 2012.
Renspie did not return phone messages seeking comment.
Ambler, a Tampa Republican seeking to replace term-limited Sen. Victor Crist, said he is wary of Crabb and Renspie, and suggested they might have been put up by his rival, Norman.
"My first thought was, my opponent might want a closed primary, so maybe he recruited this person," Ambler said in a previous interview about the ballot. He could not be reached for this report.
Norman called the accusation "laughable" and noted that Ambler encouraged a Florida State student to run against him as a write-in candidate in 2008. That move allowed the otherwise-unopposed Ambler to keep raising and spending money for his campaign.
"I'm running a hard, fast, tough race," Norman said. "I've never known these people. I don't know anything about them."

" Genre: Hard Rock & Metal - Heavy Metal / Artist: Iron Maiden / CD / Audio CD released 2010-08-16 at EMI Records "
* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
The Final Frontier is Iron Maiden's 15th studio offering and twists through a maelstrom of classic Maiden power and prog rock.
This is encapsulated in the opening track, where we meander through a four-minute proggy intro before being hit round the head with a classic slice of rock with all the hallmarks of Maiden. We have Bruce Dickinson's endearingly earnest-yet-silly lyrics about being lost in space, some good guitar breaks and the unmistakable air-raid siren vocals and triple guitar sound that define Iron Maiden.
This continues into the second track 'El Dorado'. It was here I realised Bruce's range isn't quite what it once was, which made me feel sad, but in his defence he is getting on a bit. It's still a solid song though.
The tracks afterwards snake through various genres, touching on prog, folk and even the Nordic/Celtic metal sound, travelling through brooding 'Mother of Mercy' and ballad 'Coming Home' to reach the next rock cornerstone of 'The Alchemist'.
I noticed that this was an occurring theme throughout the album, Maiden seemed to be trying out new directions whilst at the same time reassuring their fans that they aren't going to 'pull a Metallica' and go completely pants-on-head crazy by writing familiar and comfortable tracks like 'The Alchemist'. Speaking as someone who's been a fan of the band for seventeen years I enjoyed all of it.
The last four tracks on the album veer in a more proggy direction, but have been constructed around linchpin Maiden-esque riffs (especially 'The Talisman') which, again, add a comforting familiarity to the surrounding weirdness.
Some of the tracks do go on a bit, and the album itself is 76 minutes, but that's the only real criticism I have.
Their fans now span three-generations and there is enough mix of tried-and-tested Iron Maiden riffage and new stuff to keep the dinosaurs, the middle ones and the nippers happy.
4 years after the pretty controversial A Matter of Life and Death, Iron Maiden come back with this album. It's important to stress that after their reunion with Bruce Dickinson the band has been opting for a stylistic shift that tends to deliver longer compositions that lean towards and epic prog kind of metal. This, as any other change in rock and roll, has been received with some sort of diffidence.
The Final Frontier honestly seems to continue on their new path with what we could define as the "new-millennium" trademark sound for Iron Maiden. The new album presents a less "dark" sound and has Bruce Dikinson talk with drums in the background before the first real track begins. I can't help but notice this songs that happens to be the title track of the album is more a rock n roll song than anything else, but it's pretty good after all. Conversely El Dorado (that was chosen as the first single...) is a bit of a let down with low energy levels and a chorus absolutely unworthy of this historical band, not to mention that -maybe- 7 minutes are far too many... To be really honest most of the choruses on The Final Frontier are a bit too obvious and only the magical vocals of Dickinson are able to give substance to mediocre tunes like Coming Home and Mother of Mercy. A good song that stands out in the album is The Alchemist where the "Maidens" deliver a fast paced song, the way they did in the past: pure classic metal with style.
The rest of the album tends to continue in the progressive vein I discussed above and honestly Starblind or Talisman didn't convince me. Unfortunately as the rest of the album. And I don't even dare think how these far too long and monotonous songs will sound like during their live shows...
A Continuing Mission...
You can rely on Iron Maiden. You know that you are going to get exactly what you expect, and it is akin to putting on a pair of comfortable slippers when you play one of their latest offerings... alright they might deviate from the norm on occasion, but on the whole they give you exactly what it says on the tin.
Their fifteen album to date, weighing in at just over 76 mutes in total is no different. I will say right from the outset that this is no classic album, not one to look back on as one would look back on the previous greats, such as Number of the Beast, but that is not to say it is not a good album, because it is, very much so, a good album.
Most of you will know who Iron Maiden are, and most of you will have a love or hate feeling towards them, the rest of you will probably not care a lot. But to re-cap and to report: Iron Maiden were formed in 1975 by bassist Steve Harris and have been through one or two changes since then, but have rested over the last decade or so as a sextet of:
Bruce Dickinson - vocals
Dave Murray - lead & rhythm guitars
Adrian Smith - lead & rhythm guitars
Janick Gers - lead & rhythm guitars
Steve Harris - bass & keyboards
Nicko McBrain - drums & percussion
Iron Maiden are a heavy metal band, in fact they are probably the best know Heavy Metal band in the world. But they broke the mould which their style of Metal: they opted out of the rock and roll style of metal of that ilk, and decided on a more workman like Metal, with sophisticated guitar riffs, both loud and gentle, and interesting lyrics which were inspired by films and books, such as Frank Herbert's Dune.
To seek out new songs...
So, then, let us have a look at The Final Frontier...
We being with "Satellite 15... The Final Frontier" ((Smith, Harris) 8:41). The second half of this song was released as a single and it was the first song I heard from the album. It kicked ass so much that I was in instant and eager anticipation for the album. I have discussed how Iron Maiden rarely stray from the norm, but the start of "Satellite 15... The Final Frontier" does somewhat. It is an amalgam of drums, swirling guitar and anguished vocals. A drum beat that picks pace and works into a crescendo before the second part of the song kicks in. A great guitar riff, time to get out the air guitar folks...
"El Dorado" ((Smith, Harris, Dickinson) 6:48) carries on in a similar vein. A wonderful bass line, building up well. There is a lot of energy in this song and it pounds along nicely. It is an instantly likeable song.
"Mother of Mercy" ((Smith, Harris) 5:20) starts well with interchanging riffs, both soft and hard, but I cannot get into the chorus of this song, just sounds like Bruce is going through the motions. Not a favourite of mine, but musically it is well put together.
"Coming Home" ((Smith, Harris, Dickinson) 5:52) is the second song I heard on this album before it was released. It was a song I instantly loved. Taken from Bruce's experiences as a fully qualified air pilot, it is full of passion, albeit in a slow, but metal, tempo:
'To Albion's land...
Coming home when I see the
Runway lights.
In the misty dawn of night
Is fading fast...
Coming home far away
As the vapour trails alight
Where I've been tonight
You know I will not say...'
"The Alchemist" ((Gers, Harris, Dickinson) 4:29) is a rocking little number. A straight forward song, akin to an earlier style of Maiden music. A toe-tapper.
It took a while but I grew to love "Isle of Avalon" ((Smith, Harris) 9:06). A quietly, searching riff with Spanish overtones slowly builds up into a train-like musical journey, then the passion erupts and off the rails we go. There is great passion here, within both vocal and guitar. It is a grower and well worth the wait. The nearest we can get to classic!
"Starblind" ((Smith, Harris, Dickinson) 7:48) is a good number, a mixture of emotions and music style. It has a gently opening that explodes into life with a chunky guitar riff. It does not really seem to go anywhere, but it is a worthy addition to the album nonetheless.
"The Talisman" ((Gers, Harris) 9:03) begins with a quiet guitar and vocal, you can almost picture Gers (I am guessing it is him) and Bruce sat by a campfire on an darkening evening here. There is too much lyric here though, as is the case with another of Harris's lyrics on this album. In come the loud guitars and off we go. Not a bad song, another grower.
'Four ships are lost in the
Stormy conditions...
The spirits of the sunken crews
Their phantoms follow us...'
"The Man Who Would Be King" ((Murray, Harris) 8:28) is the penultimate song on this album. Remember what I said about too much lyric before? Well this is a fine example of that. What Harris says in about four words can be said in two and it makes this song a little bit clumsy as Bruce tries to get through it. So, bad words, but that is not to say it is a bad song... it is very good. A quiet opening that builds up and we are treated to an amalgam of differing riffs in an ever changing song.
"When the Wild Wind Blows" ((Harris) 10:59) ends the album nicely with an assortment of music style. Somewhat depressing lyrics to begin with and you are thinking, liven up guys! But the music makes up for it. A great song to finish up with.
Where no man has gone before...
A few other bits: The album was produced by Kevin Shirley and co-produced by Harris. The artwork it, as always, incredible. The cover illustration and the inlay sketches were by Melvin Grant, and depicts the band's mascot Eddie - this time on the cover he appears to be an alien-Eddie hybrid about to feast on a few long dead astronauts.
Overall, The Final Frontier is a fine example of six musicians still at their peak of musicianship. They show the world that they still have what it takes, even though their albums are few and far between nowadays. It also shows that they are obviously still loving it all. Long may they carry on, and here's to the next one... whenever that will be...

A national policeman was injured when a protestor smashed a bottle on his head last night in Pamplona, after the funeral of the 61 year old baker, Ángel Berrueta, who was shot by an off-duty policeman last Saturday, following an argument caused by the baker´s refusal to display a black bow of mourning for the victims of the terrorist bomb attacks on three local train stations in Madrid last Thursday, in his shop window. The officer´s injuries are not reported to be too serious, but he did need one or two stitches.
Four protestors were arrested in the La Asunción parish in the San Juan district of Pamplona, two of whom had travelled from Vizcaya to attend the funeral. It appears that a small group of troublemakers wearing ski masks were responsible for the violence, and for setting light to several rubbish bins. Around 1,200 mourners attended the funeral, although the family had wanted it to be a small, private occasion.

Sound — 7
The sound that lends this guitar is for the Hard Rock and Metal mostly. I also clear the way playing a lot of metal, especially Metallica songs. It has very good bass and clean. The guitar also serves other genres, but it lends more to rock. The severe neck pickup is very good and clean also very rich. In the bridge position has a good sound for solos. I have a SoundBarrier amp and DigiTech RP255 pedal and I can play songs from Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Papa Roach, Rev Theory, among others. It's a guitar that lends itself well to this type of sound.
Overall Impression — 8
As I said above, this is a guitar that lends itself to the Hard Rock and Metal. Generally I spend playing much this kind of music, of course still playing ballads, but with this guitar I apply alone. With this guitar took a year, but I've realized it's not the best for me, since I've come a long way, in these 3 years I've been playing. I would like to have bought another type of guitar, as a LTD as they lend themselves more to the kind of music I want. What I like about this guitar is its color, black is a color night, you notice a few details in the painting that make you look that has stars on it. To others of having placed some vinyl Style Ltd ESP Iron Cross but Silverfish, to combine with the body and other vinyl Shark teeth to the mast. I chose this guitar to be learning to play other types of music that caught my attention.
Reliability & Durability — 7
Do not recommend to play live, of course if you have so many problems with it, I've played with it live and have never been disappointed, sure better have a backup. But as it is a guitar to start learning. I recommend not to play live. The hardware will not last long, minimum will last you a year and a half, then you will have to begin to change it. The pills are the change for a Seymour Duncan Distortion and Jazz 2. Sure gives much better sound and makes up low-end midrange. A guitar haci not going to last long, I to mine the care much and would not get to sell.
Action, Fit & Finish — 7
The guitar was made in China, everyone knows that something beyond made in China, does not come out very good. But my guitar is out a bit good. The first time I had had nothing but a single problem, I had a little problem much fumbling. I took her to a Luthier and I fix it. Guitar course always takes a few arrangements. The bridge is well done, almost no guitar out of tune, no problems with pegs. Sure I have made many arrangements to mine, I change the plugs because one of them had damaged me, I change the nut and place a bone, you get off the frets and change the look, you place a few Vinyls. Among everything else the only problem that has me most is the fret. I guess to make a good arrangement would end the problems.
Features — 6
My guitar was made in 2011, was made in China, of course like all GIO. The frets are medium sized, the wood of the frets are Rosewood. It's a solid body guitar. The body is basswood, the finish comes in two colors, black night, and red. The body is a Super Strat style, comes with a semi-floating bridge. The pickups are passive brings, are a normal humbucker, comes with controls for volume, tone and pickup selector.

New Bemidji State women's golf coach seeks improvement
First-year head coach Mark Bagaason is looking for improvement for the Bemidji State women's golf team in the 2012 spring season.
Since there are no seniors on the team, Bagaason will look toward his two juniors to guide the team this year.
Junior Kathryn Stoffels says the transition for the incoming players should not be a difficult one. "There isn't too much of a transition between the high school and college game," Stoffels said.
Two of the four freshman were not a part of the 2011 fall team at BSU.
"We're adding two golfers in spring season," Bagaason said. "Paige Tompkins, of the basketball team got third in the state of North Dakota as a senior last year. Hopefully she will add some things to our team.
The Beavers also added Laura Langer from Centennial High School in Circle Pines, Minn.
Although there is plenty of young talent, Bagaason knows the upperclassman will need to lead the team.
"I think Kathryn Stoffels has really stepped up," Bagaason said. "She's been our No. 1 golfer for the most part during the fall season."
"Rachel Wold has probably been our most consistent golfer," Bagaason said. "She hasn't had any bad days, she has just been really consistent for us."
Bemidji State will begin its spring season at the Wayne State Invitational this weekend in Wayne, Neb.
"I just hope we can some lower scores, as well as move up in the standings in the NSIC," Stoffels said.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Case Conclusion Date: 11.10.2008
Practice Area: Mergers and acquisitions
Outcome: Closed the sale in 40 days (not 6 months).
Description: My client (the buyer) found a dental practice for sale. I negotiated and drafted a very favorable contract for my client, but prior to signing the contract, one of the two sellers died. While finalizing the contract, the buyer's financing had been approved, due diligence was completed, and the new lease had been finalized. Had the deceased seller completed proper estate planning, the sale could have closed immediately on his widow's signature. Unfortunately, no corporation or trust existed to allow this result, nor was there a will. Ordinarily, it would take many months to go through a intestate estate probate and complete the sale. I came up with a creative solution to give the seller's widow authority to sign the sale contract without going through probate. I did this with a specialized (and relatively unknown) post-death estate planning document that gave the widow full legal ownership of the deceased seller's share of the dental practice only 40 days after his death, without probate. My technique permitted the sale to close only 40 days after death, rather than an estimated 6 months after death.

Adapting to change key for Bulls in yet another playoff run
Posted August 26, 2014
Durham, N.C. — The Durham Bulls, already minor league's most identifiable team, are also the most dominant. With Monday night's 4-2 win over Gwinnett, the Bulls clinched the International League's South Division for the seventh time in eight seasons and the 12 time in the last 17.
"This is not easy. We have kind of made it look easy, but it's not easy to put all these different groups of guys together every year and get them to play together for all these months," said Bulls general manager Mike Birling Tuesday while joining Mark Thomas and Mike Maniscalco on 620 the Buzz.
While building a dynasty at the professional level is largely attached to financial means, in the minors teams are at the mercy of their parent organization's development strategy and overall health during the season. Those factors make the Bulls' run even more remarkable.
In 2014, the Bulls have already used 44 different players. Over the past eight seasons that have seen the Bulls win seven division titles, two International League titles and one Triple-A championship, a total of 247 different players have put on a Bulls uniform. That amounts to nearly 31 new faces a year.
"Every team is so different and you have different guys," Birling said. "Even though we have done this a lot as the Durham Bulls, you still have some new players that when you talk to them after, they have never won a championship. That's the best part -- it's special for them."
One key new face to the team this season is veteran Wilson Betemit. He may have turned down an offer to swing in the home run derby at DBAP this year, but that shouldn't be misconstrued as apathy.
"With a guy like Wilson, they feel they still have what it takes to play at the Big League level, and they take some of the younger guys under their wing all season long," Birling said. "Once you win, you can tell how much they still love the game. He was one of the first guys in the locker room smiling with the team."
Each of the last seven titles have come under the watch of Charlie Montoyo, who earlier this season became the franchise's all-time winningest manager, passing Bill Evers' mark of 613 wins on July 21. Evers is responsible for guiding the team to five titles in six years from 1998 to 2003.
Montoyo has been with the Rays organization since 1998, working his way up to Triple-A having studied Evers' managing style.
"It never gets old. The run that we have had has really been amazing," Birling said. "It's a true testament to the players over the years and Bill Evers and Charlie Montoyo."
Another factor that minor league clubs have to deal with – especially in the playoffs -- is the expanded rosters of Major League clubs in September. Montoyo himself was a September call-up during his four-game cup-of-coffee with the Expos in 1993. Birling said that with all the injuries to the Tampa Bay Rays this season, however, the big club has already seen most of the young talent and isn't likely to over-pick from Durham.
"Now, with the team that we have, I think they are going to want these guys to continue to pitch and get at bats and call them up after the playoffs," he said. "I think there will be a couple of moves but I think for the most part this team will be intact."
The Bulls, having already clinched the South Division, now have their sights set on a second consecutive International League championship. The last team to do that was the Columbus Clippers in 2010-11. Durham last went back-to-back as IL champs in 2002-03.
"You see these guys, and people don't understand the grind they have to go through," Birling said. "They start in the middle of February and they have like one day off a month from the middle of February. Hopefully we can put it together over the next couple weeks and go back-to-back."
