Camera falls from edge of space
PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. (CNN) - Back in June, a CNN team working with visiting international journalists tried an experiment to get video from the edge of space using a small camera, a smartphone and a weather balloon.
It took six months, but they finally got their video back with amazing results!
The launch went off without any problems. The balloon and its payload zipped up 65,000 feet to the stratosphere and took some incredible images of Earth.
But on the way back down, it seems the camera and its parachute hit some high-altitude winds and the assembly broke apart.
A GPS tracker was used to recover the balloon, but the camera and phone were long gone.
Or so it seemed.
A Georgia resident found the phone in his backyard last month. With winter setting in, the camera was spotted in a tree that had finally shed all its leaves.
The camera still works, and the video found inside shows the entire trip, ending with a gentle landing in the tree.

SFO is conveniently located 12 miles south of San Francisco. BART, or the Bay Area Rapid Transit, links San Francisco International Airport with The City (as San Francisco is commonly known among locals). The airport is conveniently located to businesses in the north and residential and business communities to the south. Some of the leading biotech and Silicon Valley companies are within minutes of the airport.

Staff is very friendly - Very Satisfied Food was OK but not really good - typical Holiday Inn Express Food. Lock on Gym didn't work well. This is a HOTELS.COM note.....need to list the 9.95 a day parking fee. That was irritating.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
ERY NICE AND CLEAN HOTELGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Never again!"
Scratchy sheets and lumpy pillows- no way near the typical Holiday Inn Express standards!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"convenient to airport"
Excellent service with friendly employees. We enjoyed the breakfast. Did not enjoy paying almost ten bucks a night for parking!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Awesome Stay"
Needed to stay at a hotel close to SFO. Got more than I bargained for. Front desk employee was superb at getting us checked in quickly and getting us directions to a nearby restaurant to eat prime rib. Room was very nice, clean and the bed was soft. Excellent room and excellent stay. Highly recommend! Definitely will stay again if in the SFO area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pro and Con"
Pros: 1. Front Desk are very helpful and friendly. 2. Rooms are fairly large in SF. 3. complementary breakfast Cons: 1. Wifi signal is weak in the rooms. 2. The room are clean; however, one of the sheets was not.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Reasonable choice"
Stayed for three nights as part of a family vacation. Property is in decent condition. Lobby and food service area very neat and well maintained. Breakfast was pretty normal continental fare. Room was OK but a little tired. Beds were reasonably comfortable but getting worn. Would stay again, but might like at other choices. Everything in the area is […] pretty pricey though.

Worst breakfast in all of my stays. Have 32 stays. Great lady trying to do a good job, No meat, no knives, eggs cold, not good overall. Best Western in Mt. Shasta was WODERFUL!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Holiday Inn Express, SFO Airport"
Stay was very comfortable. Check in and check out was easy. Room service excellent. Located conviniently between SFO downtown and south. Excellent breakfast service. Wifi connectivity in the room and internet available in the lobby. Sufficient parking space. Bad thing if you stay beyond a certain number of days, parking should be free.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great last night stay before morning flight"
Every staff member we encountered was very helpful and courteous. The hotel was very clean and well-maintained--including the rest rooms off the lobby and the breakfast area. The breakfast offered more choices than the typical continental fare. Overall, very positive and comfortable way to end our vacation before flying home the next morning.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel close to SFO"
My family stayed here for six nights and found it to be pleasant and comfortable. They do charge $10 a night for parking. Free hot breakfast is provided. There is a whirlpool and a small fitness room. The hotel is convenient to the airport, Costco (and its gas station), and Route 101. Just a short drive into San Francisco. I would stay here again.Genuine Expedia guest review
Excellent Hotel, room and service.....Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very convenient to the airport! Friendly staff."
Met our needs but is difficult to rate coming off of Napa which was over the top experience with tons of extras. Overall this was a good experience and met our needs for having to be near the airport to get out early. Breakfast was ok but not like the rest of San Francisco. Could beef this up a bit.Genuine Expedia guest review
Traveling with 2 grown sons, we specifically searched for and reserved a room with 2 qn beds and sofabed. Hotels.com res confirmation lists 2 queen beds, AND under "Room Details" lists sofa bed. However, upon check-in we were informed that none of their 2-queen-bed rooms have sofa beds. And no rollaway bed due to fire code. Not sure whether problem […] is Hotels.com or Holiday Inn Express, but please get your details straight! Two grown sons sharing a bed is not good. The next day was miserable because they hadn't slept and were GRUMPS. Also, room smelled bad - a mix of mildew and I'm not sure what else. It stunk! We've stayed at other Holiday Inn Express hotels and they have been great. But this one is not good. There are lots of hotels near SFO - choose a different one.

"Holiday inn!"
Great location. Quiet. Very clean, actually smelled of soap everywhere we went! Bed was comfortable and the room was very spacious. Liked the fact you could close the room off from the main "living" area. Staff was accommodating and friendly. 5 stars.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"stranded overnight"
It was a quick visit and served as a decent hotel for one night . The staff was friendly and the room was cleanGenuine Hotels.com guest review
This hotel is very easy to get to the airport from and rental car returns. The staff was friendly & helpful. Better get to breakfast early because everything is closed down and locked up by 9:30 on the dot.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I would definitely stay here again. Good breakfast. Hotel staff was courteous and helpful.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Birthday Getaway"
Overall, this birthday get away was great. However, I was not completely happy about the parking charge. My daughter came to stay overnight and I did advise the staff that a parking certificate was needed for one day- Saturday . When I checked out Tuesday morning, I was asked for that certification which I did not have because I was not told that it […] needed to be returned at the end of the reservation and was charged for the entire period. Your front desk staff did not tell me to return the partking certificate upon checking out. Also, I was located on the fourth floor, where is seemed to have families in the rooms, which were very noisy. The Housekeeping Staff was very accommodating and the daily breakfast was very good.

"Good for airport hotel"
It looks like the hotel was just recently renovated. Seems clean enough, however, hot tub was not hot - warm bath water at best. Decent enough for airport hotel. The shuttle was easy - ran a few minutes late to pick us up, but other than that worked out just fine. Breakfast wasn't open as early as we needed to leave, so that was a disappointment.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel"
We had a nice stay at a nice hotel. The only thing that was lacking was the wifi signal - it was practically useless. Other than that, I would recommend this hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"on baby watch"
enjoyed my stay,next visit I would like to have a view instead of a brick wall in the back of the hotel! 3-4 floor if possible. the view was not pleasing to the eyes! also the midnight desk person was very snippy with guest...that I did't like.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good place for airport access"
We used this hotel for access to an early morning flight. The airport shuttle leaves every 30 minutes, starting at 4:30 AM. Short trip to airport. Clean, comfortable room. In an industrial area, no food choices nearby. I wouldn't recommend it for a longer stay, but it suited our needs.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to SFO airport and a short drive to the city"
We chose this hotel mainly on the price and condition of the hotel. Lodging in San Francisco is very expensive and we were going to have a car anyway, so it made sense to save over $150 a night to stay a few minutes outside of the city. Clean hotel, breakfast was fine and vert average at best. Front desk was very friendly. Be careful when you are checking […] out though. We were at the check out desk and the lady told us that housekeeping reported our room being smoked in; nobody in my family smokes. My dad had to walk upstairs with her and let her inspect the room so we weren't charged a $300 cleaning fee. Be very careful of them trying to charge you on fees. Other than this mishap things we good. Bed and pillows were average, nothing special. Bathing condiments were average as well. It was nice however to have a refrigerator and microwave in the room. Overall good hotel that is very average. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to airport"
We stayed at this hotel the night before and the night after our trip, and we'll stay there again. The room was lovely, the bed was VERY comfortable, breakfast hit the spot, and the shuttle to the airport was timely. Loved it!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Holiday inn express"
I thought price of this hotel was very expensive relative to the quality of this hotel. The staff was friendly and polite but the room was awful. It had also not been cleaned property before my arrival as there was trash in the waste baskets and hair in the bathroom. I would never stay here again and for this price I wold stay in a nice hotel downtown […] and pay for a taxi to airport. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel with decent standards"
The staff was extremely helpful about helping us get our hotel since we needed to change hotels last minute from an awful one. They even held all of our bags for us while we waited for the check in time so we could go explore without carrying everything. The room was clean, well maintained, with plenty of space. The parking was a little bad if you came […] back late, but I found that to be the case in the whole city of San Francisco so not a huge deal. The neighborhood is the airport area, so the location isn't the most convenient unless you're going to the airport, and then it's extremely convenient, but there was a mall not even 10 minutes up the road with places to eat, and the staff was super helpful in helping us find places and recommending locations for us to go to. Overall a great experience, and thank you for rescuing our vacation from the hotel we were at before. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
the hotel makes me feel so bad at all. And I never go to the hotel again.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Just Okay"
Only complaint was the slow internet speed and that the television would randomly stop working and shut off about every 30 minutes. Also, the airport shuttle bus driver was very rude when I did not tip him. Tried to explain that I do not travel with any cash and he laughed at me and said I should learn to carry some for situations like this. Made me […] uncomfortable but by that time I was already at the airport =) Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

I was in town for a 1 week seminar at the airpoprt. Shuttle service to/from SFO was on time, everytime. Free wireless internet. Coffee was always there, Real Breakfast, Staff was courteous. +++Cookies in the afternoon! What a pleasant suprise.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good Value and close to airport"
Comfortable beds, great breakfast, clean, neat and well managed. Best value that we could find so close to the Airport in SF.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"no hot water"
We stayed in this hotel during our visit to SFO. before i book this room, i browse the amneties and pick this one since it has Jaccuzzi (hot tub). however after we go there, we realize that Jaccuzzi is not working and also hot water is not coming in hotel. It seems they have problems in all of the rooms and i do saw couple of guests compalining to front […] desk about hot water. In winter, we did bath with cold water instead of hot water in this hotel. Also, morning breakfast they will take away everything by 10AM without any mercy. somehow i am not satisifed and i wount recommend this hotel to anyone. Thanks.

Great hotel and is 1.5 miles from the rental car area of the airport. Room items: bed, desk, bathroom, etc are great!! Breakfast selection pretty good also. Only negative vending machine selection poor. Great place to stay and for sure coming back soonGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel w/a few exceptions"
The hotel in general and room were very nice. The bed was comfy and they had a good daily breakfast. But.... the Wi-Fi was very disappointing. It was not available most of the time related to excessive use. Never able to get on in the afternoon or early evening. They need to upgrade. Also, be aware there is a $8.95 a day. This is not indicated in the […] description and I was under the impression it was free because they make a statement that "extended" (for airport) parking had a surcharge.

"Not worth the money"
Terrible location, had no hot water, could here the neighbors. Front desk wasn't very helpful with directions or accommodations. Wouldn't recomend this to anyone.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Lacked Full Disclosure"
I was surprised the Hotel.com listing did not disclose the additional parking charge.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"free wi-fi is worthless"
wi-fi not accessible in room, only works in common areas; surcharge for parking at this out-of-way location isn't reasonable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Perfect for Flyers"
If you want to be near the airport, this is perfect - less than 5 minutes to rental car return and the team to the terminals. Hotel also offers a free shuttle service that runs at all times. Not close to anything else, so don't stay here if you're touring the Bay Area.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Be warned.................."
Having to pay for parking was a surprise.............. Making the booking through Expedia means that Priority club membership is NOT counted (despite the fact that the rate received was the SAME as if we had just walked in).Genuine Expedia guest review
Super hotel in good location. Free breakfast, wifi. One minor nit: they charge $9/night for parking.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Cold shower"
My only complaint was that the shower water was cold. The water in the sink was nice and warm, but unfortunately not the shower.Genuine Expedia guest review
Great location, next to McDonalds. Easy access to Freeway! Very close to Costco(with a gas station!) Good size room (2queen beds). Hot breakfast every morning.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel in good central location"
We stayed at this hotel last week for 2 nights whilst visiting Carmel for my husbands birthday. The room was great, clean and very comfortable, we had our 09 year old daughter with us and she was very comfortable in the roll away bed they put up for us in the lounge area. Good pool and hot tub and sauna and free wine beer and snacks each evening in […] the hotel lobby - great ! Good breakfast each morning and never had a problem getting a table on both days we were there - would deff stay at this hotel again without hesitation. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Comfy room, beware on the shuttle, no wifi"
I chose this hotel since it was close to the airport, had good comments on the airport shuttle, as well as free in-room wifi. Wifi didn't work at all, and when I asked about it, the front desk person said - 'sorry, maybe there's a dead spot'. Well, then - don't advertise free wifi then! We were getting an early flight, so my plan was to check-in, return […] my car, then get the shuttle back to the hotel. I asked the front desk person a lot of questions about the shuttle, to the point where she was getting impatient - but never did she mention that there are 2 Holiday Inn Express hotels near the airport and not to get on the shuttle that says 'Holiday Inn Express'!!!! Yes, after waiting 20 min at the airport, we got on that shuttle and were taken to the other Holiday Inn Express, 5 miles away. By now it's very late and my choice was to go back to the airport (after many more hotel stops), and wait for the 'right' shuttle, which by now I had no idea what that was. So - after a $20 cab fare, we finally got back to the hotel and a very unapologetic clerk who somehow thought I should know NOT to get on a shuttle that has Holiday Inn Express on it. Between that and the WIFI, I am totally unimpressed and will be writing a letter specifically mentioning this clerk. Breakfast looked ok, not bad for free. Shuttle was right on time in the morning (note - it's WHITE and does not say Holiday Inn Express on it. The other Holiday Inn Express Shuttle is black) Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"False Advertising"
The internet advertised that a bar and restaurant was on site. Not true. Smart remark to the alternative. Bus transport to airport not reliable and staff made no alternative plans. (like taxi's) Bus was over 30 minutes late with 12 people waiting. Manager shrugged his shoulders. No, I want be recommending this hotel or any other Holiday Inn Express […] .

"Great hotel for early flights at SFO"
Great access to San Francisco Airport (SFO)! Very clean!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent Breakfast."
Very convenient to SFO. I'm big on the continental breakfast when traveling because I can eat a good breakfast and otherwise snack the rest of the day. Breakfast buffet was superb. (I'm not sure if the cinamon buns are a staple of this chain, or this hotel, but they ranked up there with Cin-a-bon). Clerk was super friendly and helpful. Not overly crowded, […] clean, nice hotel.

Flavored and cheap, little cigars are attracting younger smokers
- Article by: SABRINA TAVERNISE
- New York Times
- August 17, 2013 - 7:23 PM
BALTIMORE – At Everest Greenish Grocery, a brightly lit store on a faded corner of this city, nothing is more popular than a chocolate-flavored little cigar. They are displayed just above the Hershey bars along with their colorful cigarillo cousins — white grape, strawberry, pineapple and Da Bomb Blueberry. And they were completely sold out by 9 one recent evening, snapped up by young people dropping by for a snack or stopping in during a night of bar hopping.
"Sorry, no more chocolate," night clerk Qudrad Bari apologetically told a young woman holding a fruit drink.
An end-run around the law
In 2009, Congress passed a landmark law intended to eliminate an important gateway to smoking for young people by banning virtually all the flavors in cigarettes that advocates said tempted them. It was predicted that the change would lead to deep reductions in youth smoking. But the law was silent on flavors in cigars and other tobacco products, instead giving the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) broad discretion in regulating them.
Four years later, the agency has yet to assert that authority. And a rainbow of inexpensive, flavored cigars and cigarillos line the shelves of convenience stores and gas stations, often right next to the candy. FDA officials say they intend to regulate cigars and other tobacco products, but they do not say how or when. Smoking opponents contend that the agency's delay is threatening recent progress in reducing smoking among young people.
Cigarette sales are down by a third over the past decade, according to federal data, but FDA critics say the gains are being offset by the rise of such less-expensive alternatives as cigars, whose sales have doubled over the same period and whose flavored varieties are smoked overwhelmingly by young people.
"The 20th century was the cigarette century, and we worked very hard to address that," said Gregory N. Connolly, the director of the Center for Global Tobacco Control at the Harvard School of Public Health. "Now the 21st century is about multiple tobacco products. They're cheap. They're flavored. And some of them you can use anywhere."
The FDA is now wrestling with how to exercise its authority over an array of other tobacco products. "The giant has finally awoken and hopefully will do its job," said Ron Bernstein, the chief executive of Liggett Vector Brands, a cigarette producer that is worried about unfair competition from cigar makers and others.
Mitchell Zeller, a public interest lawyer who became the director of the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products this spring, acknowledged that the emergence of new tobacco products meant a new look was needed.
"What we've seen in the past 10 years is this remarkable transformation of the marketplace," Zeller said. "There are products being sold today — unregulated products — that literally did not exist 10 years ago."
But new rules have to be grounded in scientific evidence, he said, and written to withstand legal challenges. The tobacco industry won a recent court fight against graphic images on cigarette labels.
As for the criticism that the agency has been slow to act, Zeller said, "Message received."
But the FDA's careful approach exasperates smoking opponents.
Sales jump 40 percent
"We shouldn't need 40 years of study to figure out that chocolate- and grape-flavored cigars are being smoked by young people," said Matthew L. Myers, the president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. Traditional handmade cigars were seen as a luxury for older men, but much of the recent growth has been in products sold in convenience stores to low-income customers. Flavored cigars now represent more than half of all convenience store and gas station cigar sales, up nearly 40 percent since 2008, according to Nielsen market data analyzed by Cristine Delnevo, a tobacco researcher at Rutgers University.
Cigar producers say they are bracing for FDA action. But they question a flavor ban, pointing out that the FDA has yet to prohibit the most common flavor, menthol, in cigarettes and that chewing tobacco still comes in flavors.

Detroit motor show 2008 - Saab 9-4X BioPower concept
14 January 2008
More Information
Designed, the company says, to appeal to a more youthful buyer, the four-seater will go on sale in Europe this year as part of Saab's push to have a model in every market segment.
'The 4x4 segment has trebled in size in the past seven years, but until now we have not been able to offer a Saab alternative,' said Jan Ake Jonsson, managing director of Saab. 'That will now change – and the same will apply to other growing segments where we see potential.'
The 9-4X comes with the promise of respectable off-road ability, thanks to Saab's XWD four-wheel drive system.
Engines are expected to include a 300bhp 2.8-litre V6 petrol and 250bhp 2.9-litre V6 diesel, as well as turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol and 1.9-litre diesel units from GM's range.
The BioPower concept on display in Detroit is powered by a 300bhp 2.0-litre turbocharged engine that runs on E85 bio-ethanol.
It is expected to go into production by 2010, although innovations such as a ski storage area may not make the production model.

Really, Magic, where are you coming from?
What makes you think Al Jazeera is about Islam?
How do you know you're going to be outraged by something you haven't seen?
What does any of that have to do with "attacking" the US president?
Why not have a look?

Four years ago, Nichols' vision for the tallest structure in Oklahoma was unveiled. From atop Devon Tower this holiday season, diners and celebrants will take in the topography. On New Year's Eve, Larry Nichols will take in retirement. He will remain as executive board chairman. If his past is a guide, the strata of lines in his resume will continue to accrete.
We certainly hope so.

I am on federal pretrial on house arrest for the last 6 months, im just waiting to be sentenced, i don't know how long sentencing usually takes, but i was wondering if my 6 months of house arrest will count as time served? And also this is my first offense on drug case so hopefully they would be leniant with me, i hope....
Surprisingly, house arrest does not count as time served. I have personally always disagreed with this, but my personal opinion is not the law. That being said, sometimes the government will take the home confinement into account for the sentence that they request. You almost certainly have an attorney on this case, that's who you should be talking to about this
Discuss this with your attorney., who probably said NO. There is no confidentiality online. Volunteering to answer this question does not create an attorney-client relationship. The accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The likelihood of a positive outcome- exoneration or a mitigated sentence- is increased with the help of an experienced criminal litigator. Seek out an experienced criminal litigator for a free consultation.

Spurs, Heat defined by stability at the top
Spurs, Heat defined by stability at the top
SAN ANTONIO — Front offices across the NBA seem to be panicking a bit these days. Job security has long been an oxymoron for coaches in this league, but even by that what-have-you-done-for-me-lately standard, this offseason has been a particularly volatile one.
Twelve coaches have been fired since the season ended, including the coach of the year and five others who led teams to the playoffs.

Thinking about death isn't maudlin – it's a fact of life
I have known people in the throes of serious illness acknowledge that although they are sad to have to leave the party, their worry is not so much for themselves as for the rest, for the friends and family who will circle their absence long after their departure.
I came across something the other day that really resonated with me. I was reading about the death of the author Iain Banks, who, when diagnosed with terminal cancer, asked his partner to do him the honour of becoming his widow. There was a quotation from the writer Christopher Hitchens, also recently deceased, who said:' "I am not battling cancer, cancer is battling me." It reminded me that not everyone wants to be a warrior.
Since my father's leave-taking, in that hospital, there have been other deaths and illnesses,other dedicated, overworked, unassailably generous nurses and carers, other lost eyes in shrunken faces and to me his was a lucky, privileged parting.
Anyway, despite my maudlin reverie (actually I don't believe thinking about death is maudlin; it's like thinking about food or sex or politics or art – it is life), I met an invigorating, hearty companion on the day ward who helped kill the long hours between admission and procedure.
She had faced a life-threatening illness years ago and survived. With great gusto, charm, energy and good humour she was living out the adage "treat each day as if it is your last". She was fully embracing her life. Wife, mother, worker, grandmother, travel lover, a woman not averse to the odd glass of wine and even an occasional fag, she exuded warmth and vivacity.
I hope she's well; I didn't see her at the end of our day. I was last on the surgeon's list, and still floating through a Rohypnol haze when the day ward emptied.
It was good to leave the warm ward, leave the dry ghosts, to walk outside on that summer evening in the last of the corn-coloured sun, grateful that the shot across the bow sank with barely a ripple.

Archive for the Category »Songs from Movies «
Earlier this year I mentioned that I play the saxophone in a community band and had a great time at our spring concert playing the tune "But Not for Me," which was composed by George Gershwin. Yesterday during our fall concert, we played two more pieces by Gershwin so I thought why not do what I did then and discover what, if any ties they had to classic movies.
I hope you won't mind though if I share a little story with you first. As I was getting ready for the concert, I was feeling way more nervous than usual (I could barely eat my lunch!) and was not feeling at all confident in my playing abilities.
But a funny thing happened as soon as we walked onto the stage, sat down, and started playing our first piece. All my nervousness seemed to vanish in an instant, and I realized that I love to perform on stage in front of an audience!
Now that might not sound like a big deal, especially to those of you who have any kind of stage experience, but as a once extremely shy introvert who has struggled my whole life with social awkwardness, unhealthy perfectionism, and a fear of doing pretty much anything in front of large groups, I never would have expected to find myself in that situation, especially since I don't exactly possess a ton of musical talent. I'm not quite sure why I never felt that way at previous concerts, but it was quite an exhilarating revelation and now I can't wait for our next one!
As for the two Gershwin pieces we played, the first was actually a medley of the songs "Someone to Watch Over Me" and "Bidin' My Time" and the other one was "Strike Up the Band." They weren't quite as fun to play as "But Not for Me" but it is always satisfying to play tunes that I am familiar with, so I really enjoyed performing them.
"Someone to Watch Over Me" was originally composed for the 1926 musical Oh Kay! and was introduced by English actress and singer Gertrude Lawrence. Lawrence, who was at one time close friends with English playwright Noel Coward, was known mostly for her career on stage in London and New York.
The song has been recorded by quite a few artists over the years including Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James, Rosemary Clooney, Barbra Streisand, and my personal favorite, Frank Sinatra. Sinatra also sings the song in the movie Young at Heart (1954), which co-stars another one of my favorite singers Doris Day.
"Bidin' My Time" was featured in the 1943 version of Girl Crazy starring Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, the same movie that "But Not for Me" appeared in. I guess our director really likes music from that movie.
I love the scene in which Judy Garland sings the song with a quartet of singing, dancing cowboys. If you happen to check it out, which you can (and should!) here on YouTube, make sure to stick around till the end for a fun appearance in the number by Mickey Rooney.
The song was also recorded as a single by Teddi King, Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole and opera singer Willard White among others. My favorite version is Sarah Vaughan's with her rich vocals bringing something extra special to the song.
As for the song "Strike Up the Band," I was expecting to find out that it appeared in the 1940 movie of the same name, which like Girl Crazy starred Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney. But I discovered instead that it was written for a 1927 Broadway musical and other than the title had no relation to the film.
Do you have a favorite version of any of these great George Gershwin standards? Have you ever performed them on stage? If so, I'd love to hear your story!
What do old movies and classical music have in common? I'm sure there are many possible answers to that, but for me it's that I once thought they were both boring and something I would never enjoy. I have only myself to blame for the way I felt about old movies, but with classical music? I sort of blame McDonald's for that one!
Okay, so I'm only half joking about that but if you remember this popular McDonald's commercial from 1986 it might help to understand why (although after reading the comments on YouTube, I think I may be the only one who didn't like it!) Continue reading »
While listening to a movie related podcast the other day, I heard the popular tune "Hooray for Hollywood" and I have not been able to get it out of my head since! I didn't know much about the song, but because I was pretty sure it held a significant place in the history of Hollywood, I felt like I should know more about it. I've heard the melody many times but realized that I didn't even know any of the lyrics to the song other than the words of the title, so I thought I'd do a little research on its history.
The song "Hooray for Hollywood" was composed in the late 1930′s by Richard Whiting, who is also known for the standards "Ain't We Got Fun" and "On the Good Ship Lollipop," the latter made famous by Shirley Temple in the movie Bright Eyes (1934). It was first featured in the movie Hollywood Hotel (1937) starring Dick Powell, Rosemary & Lola Lane, and Ted Healy. It was sung by Johnnie Davis and Frances Langford, who were accompanied by Benny Goodman and his orchestra. Continue reading »
Yesterday I stumbled upon one of those "This Day in History" sites, and it caught my eye that it was the 57th anniversary of the day the song "Rock Around the Clock" was recorded by Bill Haley and the Comets. Normally an odd numbered anniversary of something isn't going to be of much significance to me, but it stood out to me for several reasons. The first reason is that I absolutely love early rock and roll from the 1950′s. Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, Little Richard, Buddy Holly, and of course Bill Haley and the Comets are just a few of the names in a long list of artists that I enjoy listening to.
The song also makes me think of the tv show Happy Days, which was one of my favorites growing up. Bill Haley recorded a new version of the song in 1973, and it was used as the show's theme song for the first two seasons, until just like Richie and Joanie's brother Chuck, it disappeared from the show.

As a resident of the state of Wisconsin as well a huge football fan, I've certainly been no stranger to the world of union disputes lately. With the labor unrest in Madison and the battle between NFL players and owners both dominating the news, it was quite timely but totally coincidental that I decided to watch a movie whose plot basically revolves around a union dispute.
However, there was just a *slight* difference in the amount of money being fought over in the movie. By slight I mean billions of dollars (in the NFL) vs. 7 ½ cents an hour. Sounds a bit ridiculous I know, but the movie I'm referring to is a musical comedy from 1957 called The Pajama Game, which centers around a union in a pajama factory fighting for a 7 ½ cent raise. With $1/hr. being the minimum wage in 1957, 7 ½ cents probably did seem like a lot back then, but it's funny how insignificant it seems now compared to the amounts currently being contested.

SAN ANTONIO -- Much too little. Much too late.
LeBron James squeezed most of his scoring into a 90-second stretch of the third quarter, which basically sums up one of the worst offensive nights the Miami Heat have endured in the "Big Three" era of the last three years.
They shot 41 percent. Two starters didn't score a single point. James slogged his way through a putrid first half for the second straight game. All that, and so much more, added up to a 113-77 loss to the San Antonio Spurs in Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night.
San Antonio now leads the series 2-1, with Game 4 on the Spurs' home floor coming on Thursday.
The defending champions need to win three of the next four games to extend their reign, and anything close to another offensive showing like what they turned in on Tuesday night will surely not be enough for the Heat to complete that quest. Dwyane Wade led the Heat with 16 points, Mike Miller -- who simply does not miss 3-pointers in the NBA Finals -- made all five of his shots, all from long range, for 15 points.
James added 15, but did it on 7 for 21 shooting, and the league's four-time MVP missed 10 of 11 shots in one stretch.
He was 1 for 2 in the first quarter. The next 22 minutes were forgettable for James, who only got a layup to go down during that stretch. Everything else just clanked off the rim or got blocked.
Of his 10 misses in that stretch, nine were on jump shots. The last time he had four points or less in consecutive first halves was December 2003 -- his second full month in the league.
And by the time he got rolling, the game was essentially over.
James made a 3-pointer with 1:36 left in the third, cutting the San Antonio lead to 75-57. Another jumper from the left elbow followed 34 seconds later, then an 8-footer, then a layup off a turnover. All of a sudden, the Heat were within 13.
Fools gold, it turned out.

BROOKSVILLE, Fla. - A Brooksville man is counting his blessing after a local business stepped in to help save his childhood home from a rather large problem.
"My sister and I were praying for a miracle and the Lord sent us L.R.E," said Richard Gray.
The miracle came in the form of a bulldozer and about a dozen workers outside his childhood home.
Richard Gray's mom, Lily, worked hard to provide her family with a home. But, when Tropical Storm Debby hit in June the pink house on Broad Street was not spared.
"Just driving by here, you knew something was not right," said Frank Vitale with L.R.E. Ground Construction.
After the flood, three very large sink holes caught the attention of L.R.E. Ground Services, a nearby foundation repair company.
"These are things we don't even think twice about. We want to be able to help if we can," said Vitale.
Richard said L.R.E contacted him immediately asking how they could help with his mom's house, but he turned to FEMA first for aid. When those funds ran out recently, he called L.R.E. asking for advice. He got much more than that.
"I can not believe somebody would go out of their way just to help somebody," said Gray.
At no charge, the company went to work filling the sink holes with a special form of grout.
"These are just temporary. These are so he can start to begin to get back to some normalcy here," said Vitale.
While the sinkholes are nearly filled, a hole remains in Richard's heart. His mom died a month after Debby cleared and was never able to come back to her home.
"Of course it is not going to bring my mother back, but we feel it would be something she would want us to do," said Gray.
L.R.E. plans to plant a new Oak tree in honor of Richard's mom and re-sod the land at no charge.
"They are a new family. There is not enough words to express gratitude for L.R.E," said Gray.

Cuomo Fights the UnionsGently « Back to Story
Showing 6 Comment(s) Subscribe by RSS V4vendetta14 June 16, 2011 at 10:52 PM Robert Pagen, I assume you live in the city, because your tax dollars wouldn't go to the FD otherwise. NYFD are the only ones being paid for the job. If you don't live in the city, then you have volunteer firefighters in your town, village, fire or water district. The NYC firefighters are some of the best trained in the world...(I'm not one of them, but i know their training now consists of 26 weeks of what we would consider hardcore training). And they need it, because they see fires literally every day. I can't speak to their faked injuries, and you likely cannot either. But they do a man's job and certainly go where few men have the balls to go. Whatever small percentage of tax dollars go to them, you got your money's worth. V4vendetta14 June 16, 2011 at 10:35 PM Pension spiking is extremely prevalent in the Nassau/Suffolk County Police where their pension pay is base on that last year's earnings. Officers collude to give any retiring police officer all the available overtime hours they can take, knowing that they will have the same treatment when they retire. There needs to be a law passed because this seems to be a RICO issue... which the cops know well... What is more corrupt than organized crime? Organized labor. Marilyn Rick June 13, 2011 at 3:15 PM Cuomo is such a fraud--just like his father. The most important pension reform Gov. Cuomo could make is to make contract negotiations between municipalities, school districts, counties and the unions open to the public. It is a "rigged" process. There is no one at the bargaining table who actually represents the "tax payer". All of the negotiating (or more likely non-negotiating) is done in private. The deal is reached and then a vote is taken. The specifics aren't found out until the deal is sealed. You'll just have to wait till the bill is passed to find out all the wonderful things that are in it... just as the Affordable Care Act was passed by Congress without much discussion or debate so is the process of Union Negotiations. Governor Cuomo's Tax Cap legislation is a sham as well. With a supermajority vote of the municipal legislatures, the 2% can be ignored. The devil is in the details. Unfortunately, the details are never discussed until the ink on the document is already dry. B. Samuel Davis June 13, 2011 at 12:12 PM What do the public unions in New York and elsewhere do? Since the unions are allowed to make political donations - all of the money ultimately from taxpayers, they give it all to one party - the Democrats. The Democrats, in turn, give the unions all or most of what they want. And round and round it goes - more donations, more wages and benefits, then again until the situation hits crisis stage, at which point you get band aid solutions like what Cuomo is doing. But the long term solution is bleak - sooner or later New York is going to look like one great big Detroit, which is a perfect example of the end result of Democrat party rule. It is a system that is corrupt to the core - and it corrupts both the workers and the party that benefits from the system. In the meantime, since the money collected in taxes goes almost entirely to government workers the state can barely do what it is supposed to do, build and maintain highways, police and protect the public from fires etc. Forget about doing great things - the people are already squeezed to death, and with the unions clamoring for more there is barely enough money to get by. And what does New York get for all of this money? Does it have the best schools, the best highways etc.? No, what it and states like it have is a poorly run school system, bad roads, and overtaxed and overburdened private sector that can't wait to leave. The only thing that prevents the state from losing population is a steady stream of immigrants, mostly from the third world, who are a net drain. But the people that leave mostly vote other than Democrat, and the immigrants that come in mostly vote Democrat, so the Democrats could care less if people and businesses leave, even as the schools fail, and government services get more and more expensive. The media of course, couldn't care less either since it is unable to critique anything the Democrat Party does - this despite decades of Democrat failure in, among other places, the inner cities. In short, the manner in which the public unions operate - using taxpayer subsidized political donations to garner wages and benefits, is the very definition of corruption. It is a hopeless situation - hopeless, and nothing about it is going to change. Better to leave, since there are places where public unions do not rule - yet. Robert Pagen June 13, 2011 at 3:24 AM Raising the retirement age will not address the most egregious problem in the New York Retirement system, which is the systemic widespread abuse of the disability system, particularly by police and firefighters. Everywhere you find publicly subsidized workers who took early retirement on dubious disabilities. |

WebmasterWorld is really more of a place to discuss business rather than to conduct business, so we'd prefer to give you pointers as to how to find the information you're looking for rather than try to rattle off lists of services.
Have you really looked at the suggestions I offered? Major news outlets aren't offering scores? The league itself isn't offering scores on their site? How about the teams themselves? Are they showing a real-time feed on their sites? If so, where are they getting it?

Annie Haslam
Annie Haslam
Best known for her long tenure as the vocalist for prog-rockers Renaissance, Annie Haslam was the product of a musical family -- her father was an amateur singer and comedian, and her brother Michael was a mid-60s rock'n'roller whose career was managed by Brian Epstein. Still, her earliest interest was fashion design; only while at university did Haslam begin singing, encouraged by friends after spontaneously performing a rendition of the Mary Hopkin hit "Those Were the Days" at a local pub. She soon began studying under opera singer Sybil Knight, and in late 1970 answered an advertisement in Melody Maker to become Renaissance's new vocalist. Haslam's crystalline, five-octave soprano remained the group's focal point throughout the remainder of their career; while still fronting the band she made her solo debut in 1977 with the Roy Wood-produced Annie in Wonderland, followed in 1985 by Still Life. Haslam's third solo effort, a self-titled album from 1989, was the first issued in the wake of Renaissance's dissolution as well as her last release for Epic; in its wake she relocated to the U.S., where in 1993 she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her struggles became the inspiration behind 1994's Blessing in Disguise; Live Under Brazilian Skies followed five years later and Dawn of Ananda was issued in mid-2000. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
