Keep track of your travels in one easy to use software program
Do you write a travel diary or journal of your trip? Do you take photos of your trip to share with family and friends? Do you write down all your fuel consumption and daily mileage details? Do you keep a record of all the great campsites you have found.
Here is the new "Nomads Notes". A unique way to record all these aspects of your trip, and more, in one easy place. As you record your trip details you can easily retrieve information on how many miles or kilometres you have travelled so far.
Whenever I have travelled in the past I have always liked to keep a diary of my trip. I used to use a word processing program for this. I also recorded all the campsites we have found, the details of where they are, how much, and the facilities at each location. With Nomads Notes I can now do it all in the one application.
- Trip Diary - Records each trip separately. A trip can be from a one night quick trip away to a lifetime on the road
- Daily Journal - Record your daily events and thoughts. It even includes a spell checker with 4 different English language dictionaries - US, UK, Australian and Canadian
- Photo Album - Photos can be arranged in separate albums for all parts of the trip. Each photo can have a separate title and description. Photo album has search capabilities by date or location
- Expenses – Record all your trip expenses divided into categories of your choosing eg food, house etc
"Let me start to congratulate you with the software …Great product ….. Love the idea. Great for storing info, photos, and trip fuel expenses"
Eric, Queensland, Australia
- Campsite Journal - Records all aspects of your campsites including, location, type of camp, cost, features, pet details and GPS points
- Fuel Consumption - Records all aspects of fuel purchases and show graphical reports of average cost per vehicle, total cost per vehicle, average volume by purchase or vehicle, and total volume per vehicle. All charts shown in metric and/or imperial
- Contacts - Records all aspects of contact details for the people you meet. No longer having to remember what their email address, phone number or website address is, you have it all recorded. And was the daughter's name Jessica or Janine - you have all the details
It does all. I was doing using 4 different programs when travelling
Denis, Texas, USA
- Vehicle details and maintenance records - Can record details of multiple vehicles, for example your motorhome or RV, as well as your towed vehicle or motorbike. Keep a record of Insurance policy details and oil types and capacity for gearbox and engines for when you need to do repairs on the road. Keep a record of vehicle maintenance including parts and labout and also insurance policy details and oil types and capacity for gearbox and engines for when you need to do servicing on the road
- TV and Radio Stations - Keep a record of TV and Radio stations you find along the way so you can easily find them next time

For the past three weeks I have been excavating unit 20 at the James Holliday House in Annapolis. We had been digging through a large layer of rubble and what seemed like construction debris that may have been discarded during the construction of the addition to the Holliday house in 1950. Our unit seemed to become increasingly smaller as we uncovered large rocks extending from the walls and two utility pipes. One pipe running from East to West, likely a sewer pipe, and another running North to South, which is possibly a gas pipe. Regardless of the obstacles we've continued excavating with the goal of reaching sterile soil before our last day in Annapolis, Friday the 17th.
On Thursday, the 16th, about 2.5 feet into the unit we discovered several large stones with shell tempered mortar. They were located in the North-West corner of the unit and created a backwards "L" shape, which suggests that they may be the remnants of a foundation. Inside this feature was a small round level of black soil, and another level of reddish sandy soil. Within these levels we found some fragments of ceramics, including pearlware. This dates the feature to the early 19th century. The large size of the stones suggests a substantial structure. There is no record of a building being there, although during the early 19th century it was uncommon for outbuildings of any kind to be indicated on property records. It is possible that this structure was demolished in order to create space for the addition in the 1950's. It is difficult to determine whether or not these stones were in fact used as a foundation, though if they were then this discovery could help to reconstruct a more accurate depiction of the property of the Holliday family during the 19th century.

The World Cyber International Games (WCIG) is an international e-sports event (or 'Cyber Games Festival') operated by Korean company World Cyber Games Inc. and backed by Samsung Electronics and, since 2006, Microsoft Corporation. I used online Audible.com coupon and knew as much as possible about it. The official motto of this organization is 'Beyond the Game', which is also the title of a documentary focusing on a legendary WCG and WCIG rivalry. The World Cyber Games were set up in 2000 with the first festival being held in 2001. The festival is influenced by the Olympic Games with a players village for competitors and since 2004 a different host city every year. This is really an overwhelming sense of challenge, competing, and personal achievements notwithstanding the fact that modern World`s top-gamers commenced their unconfident steps in gaming as little kids on their 'modest' personal computers.
Nowadays, computer in addition to video games outstrip almost every other sort of toy truck located at toy retailers. With the help of computer one can find everything online Kohls promo code any time. A lot of infants use computer games and/or video games so that modern parental communities are really concerned of their kids' benefits. Since depriving from the games is not the best solution many World`s leading companies took responsibility for educational computer games. Today all types of games – educational and entertaining – are rooted deeply in our society as an inevitable event we face. Their goals are real and clear.

U.S. Icons Now Made of Chinese Steel
Imports Surge While U.S. Mills Idle; Lacking Bridge Expertise at Home
The Verrazano-Narrows Bridge was a feat of American engineering when it was built across New York's harbor in the 1960s. Now, it's being repaired with steel made in China.
Chinese steel imports have surged so far this year, even as U.S. producers are awash with excess domestic capacity. Chinese steel was also recently used in the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge.

Where would Italian cuisine be without America? Strange as it might sound, imagine how astonishingly different Italian food would be without tomatoes to make delicious, rich sauces, or corn for creamy polenta. Think of the gastronomic delights we would miss! Take zucchini, a type of squash. They've become so intertwined with Italian cooking and culture that Americans even call them by their Italian name, although they originated on this side of the globe. In fact, just like tomatoes and corn, squash of all shapes and sizes were a tasty gift from the New World. Part of the large Cucurbitaceae plant family –– which includes everything from pumpkins and winter squash to zucchini, melons, and cucumbers –– squash are said to have originated in the South American Andes and were grown in several parts of the American continent well before Columbus arrived.
So it's no surprise that in the US the fall season is associated with pumpkins and winter squash. Most of us have a rather superficial acquaintance with them, however, often limited to the ubiquitous Jack-o-Lantern, a few pretty ornamental varieties, lots of pumpkin pie, and the occasional acorn squash soup. But try walking through a farmers market these days, and you'll see an astounding assortment of squash of all colors and forms, from traditional orange pumpkins to smaller delicata and butternut squash to big hubbards. And they're all so full of flavor and incredibly versatile! What other food can be mashed to make soups and delicate purées, stuffed into tantalizing ravioli, used in flavorful risotti and mouth-watering sweets, and hallowed to look like a scary skull lit from within by a candle?
Although called "winter" squash, they really start appearing in late summer and keep growing through December –– some kinds grow even further into the winter. Unlike summer squash such as zucchini or yellow squash, which are harvested and eaten in the immature stages when the rind is still soft, winter squash are harvested when fully mature and the rind is hard.
If you're a squash newcomer whose experience is confined to ultra-sweet pumpkin pie covered with generous amounts of whipped cream, start with a butternut or delicate squash and you won't be disappointed. Butternut squash are light beige with a peanut-like shape, and they taste somewhat like sweet potatoes. Delicata squash are smaller and narrower, their rind is usually yellow with a few green streaks and their flavor is, well, delicate.
Other culinary favorites include acorn squash, a rather large, round squash of a dark green hue with some lighter orange spots, that makes a hearty soup; hubbard, a large, bumpy and thick-skinned squash with a fairly sweet flavor; kabocha, a drier, flakier type with a round shape and a flattened top, green in color with occasional white stripes; and spaghetti squash, which has nothing to do with the pasta, but is called that because its flesh is stringy and turns into strands that resemble spaghetti when cooked. (You can even substitute it for spaghetti in many dishes!)
No matter what type of squash you pick, go beyond the pumpkin pie and experiment with baking, braising, pureeing, and even sautéing –– you'll open a wonderful new window of culinary delights.
Tips and Hints
Picking the best squash
Picking winter squash is somewhat similar to picking melons. It's more difficult than choosing other varieties of vegetables or fruit because physical damage may be less evident on the outside. As a general rule, the skin should be fairly hard and dull without soft areas or cracks, and the heavier the squash the tastier and more moist it will be.
Storing squash
Squash don't have to be refrigerated unless cut. Store them in a dry place at room temperature and they should last for several weeks. If you do cut them, make sure to wrap them in plastic or foil and store them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Cooking squash
Winter squash, like their summer counterparts, can be eaten raw. In fact, the term "squash" derives from the Narragansett Indian word "askootasquash," which means something like "food eaten raw." The sweet, satisfying flavor and the soft, luscious texture we've learned to associate with squash, however, comes from cooking it, whether we bake it, steam, it or sauté it. You don't need to peel squash before cooking it, as the skin will usually soften with intense heat and come off more easily.
To bake all types of squash, cut them in half lengthwise, scoop the seeds out and place them on a baking pan with the open side facing down. Don't forget to season them with any seasoning you wish, from a little olive oil with salt and pepper, to a sweeter butter, brown sugar and cinnamon combination. Place them in the oven at 400 degrees and let cook for 40 to 90 minutes, depending on size and texture. You really want your squash to caramelize to eliminate excess moisture and release its natural sugars. Once out of the oven, scoop out the pulp and use it to make soups, purées, sauces, pie fillings and other wonderful preparations. Just pick a good recipe!
The procedure for steaming squash is similar to baking it, but requires the addition of about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the baking pan. Steaming will not allow for the same degree of caramelization that baking produces, but is often required for a subtler flavor.
There's no reason why winter squash can't be treated like summer varieties: peel (optionally), cut into small pieces and sauté in a hot skillet with a little oil or butter. Heat your favorite type of cooking fat in a skillet, add the cut up squash and cook over a medium-high flame until the flesh is tender and the skin (if left on) has softened. Season with salt and pepper and your sautéed squash is ready to be served as a side dish or a garnish on soups. Squash can also be pan-fried. Peel it and cut it into thin slices or strips. Heat some good cooking oil, enough to come about one inch up the side of the pan. Toss in the slices and cook for a few minutes, until slightly crispy. These will make an unusual and tasty garnish.
-by Laura Giannatempo
Note: Save the Seeds!
The seeds of winter squash are delicious when toasted. Rinse them well and pat dry. Toss them lightly in oil and a little salt, spread them on a sheet pan, and bake at 250 degrees for about 1 hour. If you'd like to brown the seeds slightly, turn on the broiler for the last 4-5 minutes of baking. Let cool and store in a sealable bag or jar with a lid. Not only do they taste great, they're nutritious and good for you!

The CPPA said its accreditation would meet the public's need for predictable and measurable pharmacy-based patient care services, noting that voluntary accreditation programs recognize pharmacy practices committed to quality, patient safety and improved care. Specialty pharmacy is focused on treatments for such difficult-to-treat, chronic conditions as cancers, autoimmune disorders, genetic diseases and chronic viral infections.
According to IMS Health, estimated costs for specialty drugs will be more than $260 billion by the end of this year, and according to a recent report by the Drug Channels Institute, eight of the top 10 best-selling drugs, by revenue, will be specialty drugs by 2016, with specialty accounting for 31% of pharmacy industry revenues in the United States.
U.S. to command more than 90% of opioid-induced constipation market by 2017
LONDON — The global market for drugs to treat constipation resulting from use of opioid painkillers will increase more than tenfold by 2017, according to new research.
The research report, by London-based GlobalData, found that the opioid-induced constipation market would grow from 2012's $144.42 million to $1.98 billion by 2017. The market, according to the group, remains "untapped," with only two drugs approved for OIC in the European Union and United States. The growth comes from the upcoming introduction of several new drugs, including AstraZeneca's naloxegol, Cubist's bevenopran and Salix's Relistor (methylnatrexone).
"OIC remains a hugely untapped market with little competition among players in the pharmaceutical arena, especially as the first pharmacological treatment only became licensed in 2008," GlobalData analyst Claire Gibson said.
Most of the sales have come from the European Union, which contributed about $75.4 million in 2012, of which $41.5 million came from Germany. But by 2017, the United States will command more than 90% of the market, with sales of $1.79 billion.
FDA's Janet Woodcock not to retire
SILVER SPRING, Md. – One of the Food and Drug Administration's top regulators is not retiring, contrary to rumors reported in news media Thursday.
In a memo sent out to staff, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research director Janet Woodcock wrote that she would not retire, but was becoming "more deeply involved" in such activities as proposed reorganizations of the Office of Pharmaceutical Quality and the Office of Generic Drugs.
"The inaccuracy of the media has unnecessarily raised concerns among Center staff, and even among my own family," Woodcock wrote. "My daughter emailed me this morning to ask if I'm retiring! I continue to be fully committed to the important work CDER does and to its staff who work so diligently to protect the health of the American public."
Woodcock was responding to a story run by Reuters early Thursday morning that reported that Woodcock, 65, who has worked at the FDA for 20 years, would be retiring in "at least a year" and that the drug industry was "already bracing for her departure."

Tornado Kills Iowa Teen At Boy Scout Camp
A central Iowa teenager was among those killed by a tornado that struck a Boy Scout camp Wednesday night.
Aaron Eilerts, 14, of Eagle Grove, in Wright County is described as a special young man who created his own program to help people who were sick or injured.
Four Boy Scouts were killed and 48 people hurt at the wilderness camp when a tornado touched down Wednesday night.
The other three teens killed are: Josh Fennen, 13, from Omaha; Sam Thomsen, 13, from Omaha; Ben Petrzilka, 14, from Omaha.
"Aaron was a wonderful kid," Robert Blue Middle School Principal Dawn Sievertsen.
Aaron was an eight-grader and well known around the community for his charity efforts.
"Fantastic -- (I can't) even begin to describe Aaron," Sievertsen said. "He was a great servant to the community. He was nominated for a state character award. He started a public service program called Pillow Cases for Patients. He made colorful warm pillowcases and sent them to area hospitals."
Fourteen people were still in the hospital on Thursday morning.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families," Iowa Gov. Chet Culver said Thursday. "We are saddened by this tragedy -- this loss of life."
There were 94 registered Boy Scout campers at an elite leadership training camp for a week, along with 25 adult and junior counselors, seeking shelter in two one-room cabins when the storm hit, according to Lloyd Roitstein with the Boy Scouts of America.
"Today is a tragic day for scouting," Roitstein said on Thursday morning.
Roitstein said some scouts were out hiking Wednesday afternoon, but had weather radios and a response plan in case severe weather struck. Roitstein said the boys had already sought shelter in the camp's two main structures when the tornado touched down.
"Scouts practice being prepared every day. They had weather radios and talked about storms and discussed where to go," Roitstein said.
Roitstein described the camp as a wilderness experience and a rustic environment. He said no basements exist on the campgrounds and the two buildings where the scouts sought shelter are not built to stand up to the wind.
Roitstein said the campers had discussed emergency procedures on Tuesday and practiced first-aid techniques.
Many of the 13- to 17-year-old campers immediately started applying those rescue skills after the storm hit. A group of three boys broke into a storage shed, took an ATV and a chain saw, and headed to the area of the camp hardest-hit to start freeing trapped campers and administering first aid, Roitstein said.
A group of boys also went straight to ranger Nathan Dean's home on the campgrounds to rescue his family from the remains of their home, which was demolished in the storm. Dean lives at the property full time as a caretaker. Roitstein said Dean's wife was hospitalized for her injuries.
A.J. Loson, one of the scouts on the staff at the camp, said that he took shelter in the administrative building of the camp and after the tornado passed, he went to the Ranger's house on the property. The house had collapsed, and Loson said he heard a child crying and people calling for help from the rubble.
"We found out where their voices were coming from," Loson said. "It seemed like there was an entire house just piled on top of them. We just pulled off everything we can. There was a chair, a couch, we got some cinder blocks, two-by-fours, doors and all sorts of things until we finally found where they were closer together."
More than 100 volunteers from the community also went to the camp to help.
In all, 42 people were taken to hospitals for their injuries.
A 15-year-old said he was in a building when it collapsed on him. He is hospitalized with a possible broken rib.
A boy released from the Blair hospital said he was sitting down to watch a movie when the storm hit. He was inside a building, and when he went toward the door, it blew open and knocked him to the ground.
Rescuers had to cut through downed trees and find a way through the storm debris to get to the injured people. Department of Transportation crews went to the area with chain saws to help clear a path for rescuers.
Mercy Medical Center, in Sioux City, said two patients arrived by helicopter at 8:13 p.m. Wednesday. A third patient went to Mercy by ambulance and later, a fourth patient arrived by helicopter. A spokesman for the hospital said the victims are all juveniles and all have serious injuries. By midnight, all four had been listed in stable condition.
A camp official said most of the injured had head injuries.
Omaha's Creighton University Medical Center said it got four patients with spine and pelvic injuries. Micheal Abell, 15, was in good condition. Mason Flora, 15, and Kevin Hannah, 13, are in stable condition.
Blair's hospital also treated four camp injury victims.
Bob Sellers, with Alegent Health of Misouri Valley, said the hospital had 11 patients. Three of them were sent to Omaha. Sellers said the 11 had been treated and released with minor injuries. He said he expected about 40 more people to be delivered to the hospital with minor injuries.
Mondamin, Iowa, officials said 27 patients are staying at the high school there. Those patients are going to be transported to a hospital in the area.
Onawa's hospital got more than a dozen campers.
Council Bluffs authorities said two ambulances were sent to transport some of the patients.
Gayle Jessen said her son was slightly injured. He heard the siren and ran to his designated area. Jessen said her son reached her by cell phone about 20 minutes after the tornado hit, and reported that he and the three others from his Fremont-based troop were OK.
Jessen said that her son heard another Scout getting agitated about the storm as it hit, so her son covered that Scout with his own body, protecting him. Jessen's son was slightly injured.
Iowa Gov. Chet Culver said it was a "very horrific" scene.
"The park is considered a total loss. It's completely destroyed," said Monona County Sheriff Jeffrey Pratt.
"All of the buildings are gone; most of the tents are gone; most of the trees are destroyed," Lloyd Roitstein, president of the Boy Scouts of Mid-America Council, told CNN. "You've got 1,800 acres of property that are destroyed right now."
"Based on what we were seeing on radar, it looked like it could have been a very powerful tornado," said Daniel Nietfeld with the National Weather Service.
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff called Culver to express his condolences on behalf of the Bush administration.
The tornado was part of a line of severe thunderstorms and heavy rain that swept across western Iowa Wednesday night.
American Red Cross surgical and mental health workers from Omaha and Sioux City were at the camp providing aid. The Salvation Army said it was sending counselors and workers to aid rescuers.

How do you make that important first contact?
When you request assistance from an influential individual, the absolute best approach is personal contact. That is, have someone who actually knows the local notable or celebrity state your library's case and advocacy message and ask for their help as a visible library advocate. Ideally, the contact should come from someone on your Local Notables Committee if you have populated that committee with well-connected people. If no one knows the person first-hand, find someone who knows someone who does. Remember that networking always helps!
If you can't make a personal contact, you have to resort to other methods. Because you're an information professional, you know that there are many ways to locate contact information for well-known individuals. Your library may own the current edition of The Celebrity Black Book (Mega Niche Media, LLC). In the case of many celebrities, information is available on his or her official web page. It may also appear on the celebrity's Facebook page and perhaps on Twitter. For authors, contact the appropriate publicist or agent. In the case of a local television or radio personality, search the station's website for contact information. For sports personalities, go to team websites. For musicians, search for their booking agent.
Don't forget Speakers Bureaus. Some are commercial businesses that charge fees, but some are free. Check your local phone directory to see if any are listed. Go online and search for "speakers bureaus" and follow those keywords with a subject, for example "speakers bureaus authors" or "speakers bureaus athletes."
Follow the instructions for contacting the people you are trying to reach. Be persistent! Be prepared to make not just one contact, but follow-up ones as well.
How far in advance should you make contact? The longer the lead time you can give a local notable or celebrity, the better the chance that he or she will be able to work your library's advocacy initiative into an always- busy schedule. Remember than many well-known people are booked out a year or more in advance.
9. Obtain quotes, photos, video messages & develop letters of agreement, photo releases, public service announcements

Street lights are one of the many ubiquitous features of the roadway landscape in this country that get taken for granted by motorists of all stripes, including truckers.
Yet the boring, little-thought-about street light serves a very important role in transportation, as many truckers hauling freight in the middle of the night can attest.
For how much more difficult would a trucker's job be if there wasn't enough light at night for loading and unloading, for navigating tight city streets for make oh-dark-thirty deliveries to grocery stores, or to provide a farther view down the long stretches of asphalt ahead at 1 a.m.?
But remember, too, those wonderful street lamps require electricity to function – electricity that gets generated by power plants that are increasingly being bound ever more tightly by ever more stringent regulations.
Thus electrical capacity is slowly diminishing, which could lead to a rise in prices – and thus leaving municipalities and other government entities to figure out a way to keep the lights on without breaking the bank.
Interestingly, lighting technology long used on commercial trucks is now stepping into the street light situation and may – and I stress "may" here – provide a "have your cake and eat it too" solution.
Light-emitting diodes (LED) are commonly used in truck and trailer lights of all shapes and sizes, but according to a survey of 100 cities and municipalities across the U.S. that have implemented some form of LED streetlight initiatives, they can save on average nearly 60% in combined energy and maintenance costs.
Put another way, LED lighting generally consumes just 1% of the electricity used by current street light technology – typically fired by mercury- or sodium-vapor bulbs – with each LED light unit lasting about 100 times or more longer than regular lights.
That could generate some big savings for municipalities and other entities charged with providing nighttime illumination of roadways.
The study – dubbed United States Smart Infrastructure: LED and Smart Street Lighting and authored by Washington, DC-based research firm Northeast Group – noted that law enforcement officials in particular offered praise for LED street lights for improving visibility and public safety.
The firm added that success of LED street light projects is also helping to set the stage for more advanced "smart" street lighting systems, which could reduce energy consumption by a further 20% to 30%.
By "smart," the firm references the LED streetlight's ability to turn on and off nearly instantly as well as its "dimming" capability – something traditional street lights can't do. This enables cities to install "smart" features to streetlights, which further reduce energy consumption through dimming, improve billing, and enable remote monitoring features, Northeast said in its report.
Thus, cities that already installed communications networks for related "smart grid" infrastructure can take advantage of those LED capabilities and lower streetlight operating costs even further.
Of course, it should be stressed that LED street lights are nowhere near attaining "slam dunk" status – not by a long shot. That's in part because their initial cost is much, much higher, averaging between $250 and $500 per LED unit compared with $125 to $300 for "traditional" street light bulbs.
Northeast Group also discovered via its survey that 45% of respondents had funded their LED streetlight projects almost entirely with monies from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) – the infamous "stimulus bill" passed during the early days of Obama's first term.
A further 36% relied on ARRA funding or other grants for at least a portion of their financing, Northeast discerned, leading it to conclude that as stimulus funding recedes, financing for future LED streetlight projects is going to be more difficult to secure – despite the success of early projects. Indeed, LED penetration of the street light market remains below 1% of the overall streetlight population in the U.S., the firm found.
However, Northeast figures that as the price of LED streetlights continues to steadily fall, it should reach parity with "legacy" street light technology within a few years – meaning that the payback period for switching to LEDs should become far more favorable and thus be within the reaches of budget-constrained cities and municipalities, the firm said.
In the end, if truckers get good light to work by, produced at a far cheaper cost to the cities and towns that provide it, everyone comes out a winner. At least, that's the hope where streetlights are concerned.

Doubleheader: Blind Boys Of Alabama and John Popper and the Duskray Troubadours
Hear a concert live Fridays at 12noon ET from WXPN NPR Music
Made possible by XPN Members, and and Comcast.
From World Cafe Live at the Queen in Wilmington, Delaware
Blind Boys of Alabama and The Duskray Troubadours
Listen to the Concert Live on the Radio and Online at Listen Live.
The six-time, Grammy-Award-winning gospel group, Blind Boys of Alabama, was first formed at Alabama's Talladega Insitute for the Blind in 1939. It was here that the original five memebers came together under the name "The Happyland," which was later changed to its current name in 1948. In their incredible 70-year career, the group has released over 60 albums, several awards and in 2007 were inducted into the gospel Music Hall of Fame. Maintaining their staple four-part harmonies, they have experimented with various styles within the gospel tradition. Their blend of traditional and contemporary gospel soul and R&B once confined them to smaller gospel venues, but after collaborating with artists such as Mavis Staples, Tom Petty, Prince, Peter Gabriel and Taj Mahal, the group has become a global sensation.
The Blind Boys' 2008 release, "Down In New Orleans" (2008), revealed a never-ending love for infusing new styles into their music. Recorded for the first time in New Orleans, they infused elements of dixieland jazz, soul and funk into their style, which is already a fusion of traditional American music through time. Their latest release, "Take the High Road", is a continuation of this expansion into other genres. This time, the Blind Boys are exploring the connection between traditional country and gospel. This 13-track collection has an all-star guest list including Vince Gill, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams Jr, Lee Ann Womack, and The Oak Ridge Boys. The album material is a moving mix of old and new, but all with the soulful feel that the Blind Boys infuse into their work.
Join us at World Cafe Live at the Queen in Wilmington, Delaware on THURSDAY, MAY 19, 12noon, for a celebration of country and gospel with The Blind Boys of Alabama, fresh off their latest release.

Recent Release: Take the High Road
Release Date: May 3, 2011
Label: Saguaro Road Records
Origin: Alabama
John Popper is probably best known for his role as a frontman of Blues Traveler, the rock outfit full of harmonic jams straight from Popper's vituosity. He's also got some serious guitar skills and vocals, which he's been honing since the 1980s. Though he first wanted to be a comedian, the young high school age Popper found that the harmonica was his thing and formed several garage bands before Blues Traveler evolved. The band, holding blues-rock, psychedelic rock, folk rock, soul, and Southern rock influences, broke into mainstream in the '90s, winning an Grammy and breaking chart records.
Popper began his solo career while in Blues Traveler, and his latest eponymous release, John Popper and the Duskray Troubadours features 12 original tracks. It's described by Popper himself as 'liberating, scrappy, roots-rock alter ego of Blues Traveler', and he's pretty much got it down. This album contains hardy, heartland rock as well as fresh, adult-alternative tracks; all in all, it makes for nostalgic yet exploratory listening. And as always, Popper's incredible harmonic moves are in no short supply. All six of the artists that make up John Popper and the Duskray Troubadours are 'rock solid', and their live performances are energizing.
Don't miss out on John Popper and the Duskray Troubadours on THURSDAY, MAY 19, as they headline along with the Blind Boys of Alabama at another Free at Noon concert. They're here to "channel the loose, limit-less spirit of simpler days" on stage, and it's not a performance to be missed - the 2011 WXPN Non-COMMvention at World Cafe Live at the Queen in Wilmington, Delaware.

BUFFALO NEWS: Kenmore Celebrates The Dog Days Of Summer
Sid Cranston of Wilson and his 2-year-old mixed breed, Benson, won the owner look-alike contest for their matching grey beards.
Becket Panfil, 13, of Angola and his Yorkiepoo, Horton, won best trick when the dog rolled to his side and played dead.
And Christine Feliciano of Buffalo took home the best costume award for dressing up her beagle, Lola, in a pink dress and baby's hat.
But if there was a throne for a top dog Sunday at Dog Days of Kenmore 2013, it surely would have belonged to Phoenix, the Jack Russell terrier puppy who narrowly survived being doused in lighter fluid and set on fire in October. Two Buffalo residents were convicted in that attack.
Cheers and applause from a cluster of about 100 people heralded Phoenix's arrival in Mang Park as he proceeded to hold court at the tent for the Kenmore Village Improvement Society, which organized the afternoon event.
"He is doing wonderful," said Judi Bunge, Phoenix's new owner and the Buffalo Small Animal Hospital veterinary technician who provided his primary care. "As you can see he has some scars and those will remain but his leg is totally functional. He is a happy, young, playful puppy."
In between posing for photos and nuzzling small children, Phoenix's regalness was on full display as he romped under sunny skies around the park's perimeter, leading a parade of Irish setters, border collies, greyhounds and countless other breeds.
Bluegrass band Creek Bend changed the lyrics to marching tune "McNamara's Band" to fit the occasion: "Oh, me name is Little Phoenix, I'm the leader of the band."
"It still amazes me," Bunge said of Phoenix's celebrity status. "I can't believe the following that he has and how emotional people get when they meet him."
Animal rights advocates have seized upon Phoenix's popularity to push for their agenda. Phoenix and Bunge were in Albany recently for Animal Advocacy Day.
State Sen. Mark J. Grisanti updated the crowd of dog-lovers Sunday about bills he supports that address animal cruelty. One such bill – a strengthening of "Buster's Law" that he co-sponsored and passed the Senate last week – would create a registry of convicted animal abusers and require them to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
"It is incumbent upon owners and pet stores to check that particular registry – it's very easy to do – because those individuals are not supposed to be owning dogs unless they're cleared off the registry first," said Grisanti, who was a judge at Sunday's contests and brought his own dogs – a white bichon named Fredo and black schipperke named Kody, both wearing Hawaiian shirts.
Another bill that has passed the Assembly and Senate would allow local governments to enact their own laws and ordinances to regulate the "puppy mill" industry. Right now, Grisanti said, federal and state laws don't provide adequate oversight leading to deplorable conditions at these commercial facilities. Local governments and non-profits are left to foot the bill of caring for animals after raids, he said.
"We're confident – hopeful – that the governor's going to sign it," Grisanti said.
And a third would mandate training for animal control officers.
"It'll help them to be better equipped to handle situations not only to protect themselves but protect the animal from having undue harm done to them," said Grisanti, who pointed to a 2009 case of a Lackawanna animal control officer who shot to death a mother cat and two of her kittens and was cleared of criminal charges.
The Kenmore Village Improvement Society holds the event not only to offer dogs a chance to socialize but also to spotlight adoption groups that work to find good homes for pets, said the organization's president, Melissa Foster, who estimated turnout Sunday at around 5,000.
"That's the whole reason that we do this," said Foster, whose civic group presented donations to five of the agencies on hand Sunday. "We really value dogs as being a wonderful part of our families."
As for Phoenix, who turns 1 at the end of June, his social calendar continues to fill up. Those who missed him Sunday will have another chance to meet him July 13 at the "Bark-B-Que" fundraiser for the City of Buffalo Animal Shelter.
"I hope he can return the favor to the public as they did to him," Bunge said. "Because he has a great fan following."

Buckethead Diagnosed With Potentially Fatal Heart Condition
Masked guitarist Buckethead has been generally shrouded in mystery throughout his prolific career but on a recent podcast, the virtuoso revealed that he is suffering from a potentially fatal heart condition that could take his life at any moment.
Buckethead, real name Brian Carroll, told the host of Coming Alive podcast that he has been diagnosed with a condition where his heart beats out of sync and that he was on the verge of having a stroke due to the arrhythmia.
"Well really recently, I have a heart problem where my heart beats out of rhythm. It's been doing it for a long time, but recently it just really kicked up and became really intense. I really didn't know what was going on, I just tried to deal with it, and let it do what it did, and eventually it would stop, but it got really intense so I went to the doctor and they said, 'You're on the verge of having a stroke.' I'm like, 'Wow.' Because I felt so good prior to having it, I was doing pretty well and everything.
"They suggested I had a thing called an ablation, they go in and freeze your heart. It's supposed to do something with the nerves, because they said my heart was fine, but it could be a genetic thing, they didn't really know. I had that procedure, and it didn't really stop it, and I'm still dealing with it. I take medication, which is tough, because I never took anything my whole life, although if I eat food or drink something that's probably worse anyway (laughs). So it's been really difficult, because it's scary because it comes on. Even walking across a room is difficult, luckily the medication I'm thankful for, because it's kept it from going berserk, but it's pretty intense.
"It seems like now I'm letting this thing sort of exist now in me, I can't really escape it. I'm always aware of the intensity of my heartbeat, it's just not something that I'd ever experienced, so it definitely kind of scares me. But I also see that it is also doing a lot of good, because I need to do all of the things I want to do.
"I just feel an urgency now."
Buckethead has released over 300 albums throughout his career and shows no sign of stopping. Even after his procedure, he still recorded a song with a friend.
"I mean the day after I had that procedure, I recorded a record with my friend. I just lied in bed and recorded it, because I felt like, I'm here still.
"I could be gone tomorrow, anybody could be gone, but that's a heavy experience. I want to play right now, and I want to play that experience."
Wishing the best for Buckethead. You can listen to the full podcast below:

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 6, 2012 (CRWENewswire) -- Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:ARNA) today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Arena Pharmaceuticals GmbH, has entered into a marketing and supply agreement with Ildong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., for BELVIQ® (lorcaserin HCl). Under the agreement, Arena granted Ildong exclusive rights to market and distribute BELVIQ (pronounced "BEL-VEEK") in South Korea for weight loss or weight management in obese and overweight patients, subject to regulatory approval of BELVIQ by the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA).
"We are continuing to execute on our vision to broaden the availability of BELVIQ for patients and physicians by establishing collaborations that support the drug's development, approval and commercialization in additional territories worldwide," said Jack Lief, Arena's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to work with Ildong, a leading Korean pharmaceutical company, to bring this novel weight-loss drug to patients who can benefit from treatment."
Arena will receive from Ildong an upfront payment of $5 million, and an additional $3 million upon the approval of BELVIQ by the KFDA. Ildong is responsible for the development, regulatory approval and, ultimately, marketing and distribution of BELVIQ in South Korea, including related costs and expenses. Arena will manufacture BELVIQ at its facility in Switzerland, and sell BELVIQ to Ildong for a purchase price starting at 35% of Ildong's annual net sales. The purchase price will increase on a tiered basis up to 45% on the portion of annual net sales exceeding $15 million.
"It is a great pleasure to establish this collaboration with Arena for BELVIQ, a new molecular entity that is the product of their research and development expertise," said Jung-chi Lee, Ildong's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We have high expectations that BELVIQ will become a key treatment option for patients in Korea and help address the unmet medical need for obesity drugs."

Stolen credit card used 101 times in less than a month
December 19. 2012 1:45PM
NASHUA - Police say a Hudson woman stole the credit card of someone she knows and used it 101 times in less than a month.
There was no word from Nashua police on how much the charges totaled, but Samantha St. Onge, 27, of 102B Pelham Road, Hudson, was charged with fraudulent use of a credit card, a class B felony.
St. Onge was arrested Tuesday afternoon by members of the Nashua Police Department's Uniform Field Operation Bureau. The charge stems from an August report filed by a woman known by St. Onge who said the card was used without her permission.
A class B felony is punishable by up to seven years imprisonment, exclusive of fines. St. Onge was released from the Nashua Police Department on personal recognizance bail pending her arraignment Jan. 18 in 9th Circuit Court, Nashua District Division.

Pre-Professional Programs
Webster University offers a number of pre-professional programs within the undergraduate colleges and schools.
Some of these special study options are dual degree programs offered in cooperation with specific professional schools; others are broad preparatory programs enabling students to pursue graduate study in institutions of their choice.
Students interested in pre-professional programs should consult with an academic advisor in the Academic Advising Center.
Pre-Professional programs offered
Pre-Dentistry, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Veterinary
Webster University provides a variety of programs and courses designed to meet the needs of the pre-dental, pre-medical, and pre-veterinary student. Most dental and medical schools accept a BA or BS in any field of study but require specific courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics.
Webster University offers a dual degree program in engineering with Washington University. This program leads to a BA or BS in one of Webster's departments and a BS in engineering from Washington University. Students have the opportunity to combine a high-quality professional engineering education with a strong background in the humanities, mathematics, and the natural and social sciences. The professional degrees offered in each area are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. (ABET).
Admission Requirements
Candidates for the dual degree program must be degree-seeking students at Webster University. They must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.25 or above, both overall and in science and mathematics courses; complete all courses described as "Continuance Requirements" prior to entering Washington University; and be recommended by the academic dean.
Continuance Requirements: Washington University Program
To complete the BS degree in engineering and applied science within a two-year period, students must have completed the following courses while at Webster University:

The study of law continues to be an objective of many undergraduate students. Generally speaking, law schools look for broadly educated individuals who can think, speak, and write with precision and clarity. Webster encourages pre-law students to choose a major based on their own interests and abilities.
Then, in consultation with an academic advisor, pre-law students will design a course of study that reflects the recommendations for pre-legal education developed by the Association of American Law Schools. The association's policy statement recommends an undergraduate education that emphasizes:
- Verbal skills: comprehension, writing, and speaking;critical understanding of human institutions and values with which the law deals.
- Creative power in thinking.
Pre-Occupational Therapy
Webster University offers a cooperative 3-2 program with the Washington University
School of Medicine in Occupational Therapy (OT). This dual degree program enables
students to complete a Biology (BA), Biological Sciences (BS), or a Psychology (BA)
from Webster University and a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) from
Washington University within a five-year period.
To take advantage of this cooperative 3-2 program, students need to:
- Complete three years (98 credit hours) at Webster University and two years at Washington University.
- Complete the Webster University general education program and the requirements for their undergraduate major at Webster (Biology BA, Biology BS, or Psychology BA).

RENO, Nev. (AP) — Federal safety regulators will meet in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 11 to determine the probable cause of an Amtrak crash that killed a semi-truck driver and five passengers on a train he slammed into in Nevada last year.
The National Transportation Safety Board announced the new date Thursday after canceling a meeting that had been scheduled for earlier this week due to Hurricane Sandy.
The double-trailer truck skidded the length of a football field before crashing into the westbound train about 70 miles east of Reno in June 2011.
The NTSB said in preliminary findings in September that video and audio from the lead locomotive show the crossing gates were down and the train horn and crossing bell were activated properly. Lawsuits against Amtrak claim otherwise.

Why Are The People In Colorado So Skinny?
Or, I guess what I really mean is, how are they not as cripplingly obese as the rest of us? What are they doing right? Oh, and this is my question because I can't begin to understand why we've universally gained weight in a 10 year period. Chipotle? Yeah, probably that.
So, here are some theories I have about people in Colorado:
