The contractor hired by the Town of Cedaredge for mold abatement and remediation in town hall will also be examining the building for the presence of asbestos.
If asbestos is found and can be isolated in place, out of the breathable air space in the building, its presence likely will not be a serious or expensive matter to deal with, explained trustee Ray Hanson.

Fundraise for UUSC through Special Events
In addition to the traditional ways of giving to UUSC, people are often interested in organizing special events to support UUSC. For those interested in creative ways to raise awareness and funds for UUSC's work advancing human rights, below are some of the most frequently asked questions about these projects. If you have a question that is not included here or an idea to share, please e-mail email@example.com, and we will be happy to speak with you.
Frequently asked questions
If you have more questions, UUSC's Volunteer Services staff can assist you. E-mail firstname.lastname@example.com or call 617-301-4366.
I want to organize an event to raise funds for UUSC. Is there someone I can speak with about this project?
Yes! We are grateful to the many supporters who want to go above and beyond in their support and facilitate others' giving to UUSC. We can send you publications, answer questions about our programs, and provide general advice. Contact us to discuss your ideas.
I want to raise money for UUSC by participating in an athletic event. Can you help me with this?
Some volunteers challenge themselves athletically while fundraising for human rights by representing UUSC when running races, climbing mountains, and biking across states! If you would like to raise money for UUSC by having people sponsor your athletic endeavors, let us know so that we can provide information, support, and publicize your efforts to our members.
Can I run the Boston Marathon in support of UUSC?
In 2011, three runners ran the Boston Marathon for UUSC and two more ran in 2012! While we're not sure if this will happen each year, we encourage you to contact us to find out whether we will have marathon numbers. We do not currently work with marathons in cities other than Boston, but this may change in the future.
How do I designate UUSC as the recipient of funds I raise through Church World Service's CROP Walk?
Many UUSC supporters participate in the CROP Walk and choose to designate funds to UUSC through this event. On your donation envelopes from Church World Service, there is a column to list an organization to which you'd like to designate the funds donated. Simply request that your CROP Walk sponsors select UUSC in that column, and Church World Service will send a portion of the funds you raised directly to UUSC. Unfortunately, Church World Service does not provide us with a list of donors, so we can't thank each one personally — so you may wish to thank your sponsors directly for their contributions to UUSC.
How much of the funds designated through the CROP Walk does UUSC receive?
When you designate UUSC as the recipient of funds, we receive 65 percent of the total raised. An additional 25 percent goes to local organizations designated by local walk organizers, and 10 percent goes to Church World Service for their administrative expenses.
I want to raise money for UUSC in celebration of my birthday. Can you help me organize an event or raise funds?
UUSC supporters sometimes ask their friends and family to give to UUSC in lieu of or in addition to other gifts. We can suggest online tools and in-person strategies to meet your goal. Contact us at email@example.com to get started!
I'm a student who would like to raise funds for UUSC — will you work with me on this?
UUSC's current five-year strategic plan includes a focus on working with youth and young adults on social-justice issues. We welcome young people who are interested in helping us advance human rights! We can provide you with information to help you organize an event in your school, church, or community. You might also use social networking to raise awareness and ask for donations. Just send us an e-mail to get started!
I'd like to plan an event to increase UUSC membership in my congregation. How do I get started?
We provide a number of resources on UUSC membership that can help you organize a membership campaign. You might choose to write letters asking for new members and membership renewal, or simply run a membership table during your coffee hour. We are here to help you meet your goals and work toward congregational awards. E-mail email@example.com for help setting goals and organizing a campaign.

Karen Delany is a redhead with the stunning looks of a model. She is also a clever woman, but deciding to let her loan shark boyfriend Samir invest her $300,000 life savings was a grave error of judgement. When Karen ends the relationship he refuses to give the money back too much loss of face and her lawyer finds he has to drop her case if he still wants to be able to walk.
Lying in bed with her new partner Lou Starr, another rich but repulsive little man, she happens across an opportunity to get even. Wannabe burglars, Bobby and Lloyd, get more than they bargained for when they disturb them. A deal is struck and unbeknown to Lou, the duo agree to help Karen get her money back and make a tidy profit in the process. If only Lloyd hadnt taken Lous designer ring he might have been able to stay out of trouble.

"He didn't care who he killed or how many he killed, because he wanted to kill all of them," Pearson said Wednesday.
The hearing is a legal formality to establish the prosecution's case. Defense attorneys rarely mount a full-blown case during such hearings, preferring to save their witnesses for the trial. Defense attorney Tamara Brady offered a limited, but notable, preview when she questioned an ATF agent who had listed Holmes' extensive online purchases.
Brady asked whether any Colorado law prevented "a severely mentally ill person" from buying the ammunition, body armor and handcuffs that Holmes purchased online. The answer: No.
Holmes had seen a psychiatrist at the University of Colorado, Denver. There was no testimony about his year at the school during the hearing. He left the neuroscience graduate program after failing a key exam.
If Holmes is found sane, goes to trial and is convicted, his attorneys can try to stave off a possible death penalty by arguing he is mentally ill. Prosecutors have yet to say whether they will seek the death penalty. They will have 90 days from Holmes' arraignment to hold Holmes for trial to decide.
If Holmes is found not guilty by reason of insanity, he would likely be sent to the state mental hospital, not prison. Such a defendant is deemed not guilty because he didn't know right from wrong and is therefore "absolved" of the crime, said former Jefferson County District Attorney Scott Storey. His case would be reviewed every six months until he's deemed sane and released.
Last year, Bruco Strong Eagle Eastwood was acquitted by reason of insanity of attempted first-degree murder in the wounding of two eighth-graders outside a school not far from Columbine High School. Eastwood is spending time in a mental hospital.

"Pathos y Lagrimas" is a newer number that's set to appear on Mood Rings' forthcoming LP, VPI Harmony, due out via Mexican Summer in 2013. The video was recorded with Converse in a dilapidated building at Rockaway Beach near Queens when the group was in New York for CMJ earlier this month. This is also the first time the group has shown off its latest addition to the lineup, Seth Bolton of Living Rooms playing synth.
The song arrives as something of a transitional piece for Mood Rings, as singer/guitarist Will Fussell explains: "I found my self thinking more about the future rather than the past. However, still holding onto the frame of older sources, we began writing songs with the idea of unity. Not only with the inspiration of time, but with the idio-centric mediums of today's artists and musicians along with the tonal qualities that inherently adapt to those settings. Basically our idea is to form a combination of these settings into one plane, almost like a bridge from one medium to the next. Hoping to let ourselves, along with everyone else, realize that its okay to link the electronic sounds of the future with the analog tones of the past. But it wasn't just putting down a guitar and picking up a synthesizer and saying, 'We're going to play electronic music now.' It has more to do with the arrangements and the over all sound of the song. What it exalts and what it denies."

CLARKSBURG -- The town is seeking assistance from an accounting firm's report in addressing its record-keeping issues.
"Hopefully with the information that we have now, we can move forward and get things squared away," Town Administrator Tom Webb said Monday.
The town saw issues during the last budget cycle, when the Finance Committee found numerous errors in the town's accounts.
The town also had its annual town meeting delayed several weeks while the state Department of Revenue (DOR) certified the town's free cash.
The town had contracted the accounting firm Scanlon & Associates of South Deerfield to conduct agreed upon procedures for fiscal year 2012 and to recommend policies the town can put in place.
Thomas Scanlon and Jeffrey Gendron of Scanlon & Associates presented the findings to the full Board of Selectmen and Finance Committee at a meeting Thursday, Webb said.
"There weren't many surprises," he said. "We knew that we had some things that we had to have squared away."
A draft document presented to officials Thursday states that representatives could not find that the treasurer maintained a proper cashbook for fiscal year 2012. In addition, the town's receipts weren't reconciled between Treasurer/Collector Melissa McGovern's cash book and accountant Christa Marsh's general ledger.
The report states that this situation "significantly increases the risk that misstatement due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected, prohibits the safeguarding of assets and does not provide for accurate and timely financial reporting."
The town had previously reported a variance of $39,233 between the town accountant's general ledger and treasurer records. The results of the procedures resulted in a larger variance of $53,522, because the year-end cutoff procedures were not performed by the town.
The firm recommended that the treasurer's cash and investments to the accountant's ledger be reconciled on a monthly basis.
In addition, the firm recommends that the treasurer maintain a proper cashbook with dates and amounts of all receipts, deposits and warrants.
To prevent further errors, Webb said both the treasurer/collector and accountant will receive further training in the accounting software, SoftRight.
Remote training in the software has always been available through the package the town purchased, Webb said, but the town will be having on-site training for both employees in the near future.
Residents previously appropriated $1,400 for additional training at June's annual town meeting.
"We're setting it up right now," he said. "We're looking tentatively to the 16th or 17th for the on-site training."

London Lesbian and Gay Switchboard |
Calm words |
Volunteering FAQWhere is LLGS based? Do you have to be lesbian, gay, bisexual or trans to volunteer? What do you look for in a volunteer? Volunteers with daytime, late evening and weekend availability are particularly sought after, as these periods can be difficult to cover. Volunteers must also be able to offer a commitment to taking calls on a regular basis. The initial training programme is conducted over 4 consecutive Saturdays or 8 weeknights (usually Wednesdays), and all volunteers must be available to complete this before being allowed to answer the phones. What's your typical volunteer like? Applications are welcome from all members of the LGBT community, particularly those from groups generally less well-represented. What happens next? If you aren't successful you can reapply, and any previous applications won't affect future ones, but we do ask that you wait 6 months before re-applying. If you are successful and are also accepted at interview, you will be invited to participate in the training course. What does the training consist of? After passing the CAT assessment, you will be able to start working on shifts with your personal trainer, with whom you will do 12 hours on the phones. You will then do another 21 hours with other ratified volunteers before being able to take calls completely on your own. On completion of your formal training, you will have a training review to consolidate your learning. More informal sessions are sometimes organised on a variety of topics for all volunteers, and refresher training takes place once every two years. How are shifts organised? What commitment is expected of me? I'm unwaged/need to pay for childcare; is it possible to be reimbursed for expenses? All unwaged volunteers, those with a disability and those incurring childcare costs can claim back their expenses, such as travel costs, and are actively encouraged to do so. I used to be a volunteer for London Lesbian & Gay Switchboard; do I need to re-train? What other facilities are there for volunteers? Can I do other work for LLGS as well as answering the phones? I don't think I can commit to volunteering right now; how else can I support LLGS? Who do I contact if I have any more questions? |

Alistair Overeem vs. Junior Dos Santos: Who Would Win This Epic Slugfest?
When you put two amazing strikers like Junior dos Santos and Alistair Overeem together, you should expect nothing less than fireworks. I believe that this would be an explosive, fast-paced war, that would have fans on the edges of their seats.
Junior dos Santos is the best boxer in the division, whilst Overeem is about as good as it gets as a striker in MMA; he recently won the K-1 Grand Prix, defeating some of the best kickboxers in the world.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Junior dos Santos vs Alistair Overeem...
Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images
Both guys have destructive, knockout power. I think that Junior dos Santos is the best boxer in the heavyweight division, only taken the distance by the always-game Roy Nelson.
In my opinion, Alistair Overeem is the more diverse striker of the two; when I think of Alistair Overeem, I think of his devastating knees. A great example of the Dutchman's knees is his knockout of Kazuyuki Fujita, where his opponent fell into a mini-coma.
Winning the K-1 Grand Prix is a great achievement for any kickboxer, let alone an MMA fighter.
Kneed I say more?
Advantage: Overeem
Ground Game
We haven't seen much of Junior dos Santos' ground game in the UFC. He earned a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, so you could make the argument that he has a solid ground game.
However, people said Shane Carwin had great cardio before his fight with Brock Lesnar, although it turned out that this wasn't the case.
While Alistair Overeem is a very accomplished striker, it is worth noting that most of his MMA victories have come by way of submission. It is also worth mentioning that Alistair has a great guillotine choke—look no further than his first fight with Vitor Belfort and his fight with James Thompson for some cracking guillotines.
Advantage: Overeem
Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images
I don't think that Overeem is particularly slow, but Junior dos Santos is so friggin' fast.
In my opinion, Junior dos Santos is the fastest heavyweight in MMA history. If you want a good example of his speed, just watch any one of his fights in the UFC...the reason he knocks guys out is because they're hit with punches that they don't see coming.
Advantage: dos Santos
Although dos Santos has great KO power, Overeem has the greater physical strength.
Alistair Overeem is a colossus of a man, and if you want to see him use his strength and power to really manhandle someone, then watch his fight against Brett Rogers. Brett Rogers is a massive man who fights at 265 lbs, and Overeem completely had his way with, tossing him to the canvas and stopping him with punches.
Advantage: Overeem
In my opinion, Junior dos Santos has faced better opponents than Alistair Overeem as a heavyweight, and has stayed undefeated in the UFC.
Furthermore, though it was his only loss since he moved up to the heavyweight division permanently, Overeem was knocked out by Sergei Kharitonov. He did display a good chin against Tyrone Spong in their K-1 fight, although due to his apparently suspect chin, I'll go with dos Santos here.
Advantage: dos Santos
This fight is so even, it's very hard to make a prediction on who would win.
I think if the fight did happen, Overeem would try to use his legs to kick and take away the movement of Junior dos Santos. However, dos Santos comes from a great camp in Black House, and I think he will be well prepared for the kicks.
I see dos Santos weathering an early storm from Alistair Overeem, and coming back to seal the victory with a late stoppage, folding Overeem with a barrage of quick, powerful punches.
Prediction: Junior dos Santos via third-round TKO

Doctors criticise sunbed ban wait
Doctors' leaders have accused a council of putting profit before public safety by delaying a decision about banning sunbeds from leisure centres.The British Medical Association (BMA) in Wales said the Vale of Glamorgan council was "dragging its feet... in the pursuit of profit". In May, a council committee recommended the local authority removed the five sunbeds it has at four leisure centres. The council said it would make a decision next month. The BMA has also called on Wrexham and Flin.... read more

Dictionary Chooses American Word Of 2012
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. It's a big year for the little word gif. The Oxford Dictionary has chosen it as the word of 2012. Short for graphic interface format, which are looping Internet animations, gif began as a noun in the 80s but caught on as a verb. For example, I giffed. That is made my own looping animations of the president's speech. Runners up include nomophobia - fear of being without your mobile phone. And YOLO - you only live once. It's MORNING EDITION.

South Essex Homes launches new interactive game to tackle anti social behaviour
Published by Hannah Wooderson for 24dash.com in Housing
South Essex Homes launches new interactive game to tackle anti social behaviour
South Essex Homes, the Arms Length Management Organisation for Southend Borough Council, are pleased to unveil a new interactive game which tackles the issues of anti social behaviour (ASB).
The game targeted at 10-18 year olds, tackles the negative effects anti social behaviour can have on the surrounding community and has been developed in partnership with local school children.
This year alone South Essex Homes have received 493 reports of anti social behaviour, which can have a major impact on both the community and individuals lives. There are also costs associated to ASB and this preventative measure highlights the negative effects that all forms of ASB inflict on their community and the people within it.
The launch of the new game, which was held at Southend College, included a speech from the Chair of the Board of South Essex Homes, Phil Lyons and then there was the opportunity for people to try out the game themselves and speak to the young people involved.
Sarah Lander, Service Improvement Manager said: "This new game will enable South Essex Homes to not only potentially reduce anti social behaviour in the town but is also a great way for young people to learn about anti social behaviour in an interactive and imaginative way
Rather than trying to teach young people the "dos" and "don'ts" about anti social behaviour the idea of the game is to let young people make their own choices about how to behave. In turn this will reinforce positive behaviour.
The interactive game, the first of its kind, uses a real environment to teach and embrace young people to get them thinking about the community in which they live in."
The object of the game is to walk freely around "your town" encountering on the way many varied anti social behaviours including bullying, graffiti and knife crimes. If you react responsibly you gain credits on your "morale-meter" and as this rises you can buy fantasy buildings to create your own personalised version of Southend.
The game, 12 months in the making, has been developed in
partnership with local design consultants, Fury and Shoebury High
School with the main aim of promoting pride and ownership resulting
in less anti social behaviour and associated costs.

If you enjoyed this Clover: A Curious Tale review, you're encouraged to discuss it with the author and with other members of the site's community. If you don't already have an HonestGamers account, you can sign up for one right here. Thank you for reading!
Man, this really does sound depressing. I think you did a good job portraying that, though the obligatory paragraph describing the puzzles and things kind of took me out of the somber mood the rest of the review had lulled me into. But I don't blame you for that; it's important to know what we're dealing with here, and if you hadn't mentioned it, I probably would've been wondering about it. (Though I will admit that the some of the graphic adventure aspects were well implied throughout earlier parts of the review, but even so, I still think what you did was good and necessary.) Other notes: The Dizzy thing totally confused me because I have no idea what that is or who you were talking about that wrote it. (Though, it's entirely possible that it's just not something I'm remembering, especially if it's a children's book like it souonds like it is.) I'll have to check out that youtube link later; that kind of connection really does sound interesting though. |
I think that the Braid line sounds better like this: "Clover, then, is what Braid might have been had its budget been scaled right back." |
How can you not know what the Dizzy series is? I wash my hands of you! Thanks for catching all 101 typos. I purposfully put them there to see if you were paying attention. I also agree with janus. That line has also been cut. |
Codemasters didn't have a license to publish its early games here in North America, so they weren't widely available. That's why I missed out on the early Micro Machines games, for example. I believe two or three Dizzy titles were released here in unlicensed form, though. And anyway, that was a long time ago. Forgive WQ, for she was probably 2 or 3 at the time. ;-) |
Hell, I was probably 2 or 3 at the time and "I" know what Dizzy is! Though I have Yahtzee to thank for enlightening me, mostly. |
Yeah, forgive me for not having a memory that doesn't extend to my infancy. lol I guess I'll have to do the research now though, so thanks. >_> ....and this from the man who never ever drank hot chocolate... EDIT: I read the first paragraph on the series off of Wikipedia. I've never played that series before, which, if what Jason says about it being primarily European is true, then it's not surprising. Instead, the games I played when I was little were Putt-Putt and Spy Fox. Have you heard of those? I bet you haven't. So there! =P |
"were; there's a grammar rule behind that that I don't feel like explaining. >_>" Lazy-bones! Subjunctive, basically. Hypothetical situations take "were", for no reason whatsoever. |
This is a nice review--I mean, it discusses some dark stuff, but I'm not depressed--I like the references to Dizzy, etc, too. So I'm glad I clicked on the "looking for a good read" bit. I'm too cheap/lazy to buy new games but I can sit back nicely and imagine... Wolfqueen, I played not only Spy Fox and Putt-Putt but also Freddie Fish and Pajama Sam. Those were some good games. Cheap, too. |
I also played Spyfox and Freddie Fish, with my nephew. Andrew: what's your excuse? =D |
They were on clearance at Toys R Us, I think. And I was feeling guilty downloading so many emulated games for free, I felt I should pay for a game once in a while. |

By GARY LYCAN / FOR THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
It was a big week in Southern California radio. First, the news that KFI/640 AM's Bill Handel and John & Ken are broadcasting their shows live from Orange on Tuesday (Dec. 8). Next, the historic news that classic hits KRTH/101.1 FM for the first time ever was No. 1 overall in the Arbitron ratings. Third, John Batchelor, ex-KFI, has replaced Curtis Sliwa on KABC/790 AM.
First, the O.C. news: KFI, FOX 11 and the Salvation Army have joined to collect non-perishable food and money. Handel, John & Ken will be at the Ayres Inn, 3737 W. Chapman, Orange on Tuesday to do their live shows and encourage donations – the location is across the street from the UCI Medical Center.
"All donations go to feed the hungry here in Southern California and every penny goes directly to help," said KFI program Director Robin Bertolucci..
Here's the schedule for Orange: Handel, 6-9 a.m.; Steve Gregory, 10:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m.; John and Ken, 2-7 p.m.; Eric Leonard, 4-6 p.m.; Terri-Rae Elmer, 7-8 p.m.; the KFI news team, 7-10 p.m.
KFI personalities Wayne Resnick, Tim Conway, Jr., Chris Little, and Bryan Suits will appear Tuesday at The Americana at Brand, 889 Americana Way, Glendale. Handel will do both events, doing his afternoon show from Glendale.
I will be at the Orange location Tuesday, it should be a fun time and for a good cause. For more donation details, go to kfiam640.com/pages/Radiothon09.html.
For the first time in the station's history, classic hits K-Earth 101 is No. 1 in the overall Arbitron PPM November ratings released Dec. 2. It scored high in average quarter hour listening, cume (different listeners), and TSL (time spent listening). Overall, its 4.9 share squeaked by and displaced No. 2 Top 40 KIIS/102.7 FM.
Credit goes to program director Jhani Kaye, who joined KRTH Jan. 3, 2006, after a successful run at KOST/103.5 FM. He e-mailed, "To have taken two stations to No. 1 twice in my career is an achievement I'm most proud of. We have the best talent, the best production, the best engineering, and the best support staff in Los Angeles
"It is a real honor to work with so many professionals ... and to have the support of market manager Ed Krampf and president of CBS Radio Dan Mason, makes it all the better. No one could be more proud of a staff than we are here at K-Earth 101!"
Pat Duffy, who ran K-Earth from 1991 to 2004 when he moved over to KNX and KFWB, confirmed this was a first for K-Earth. He e-mailed, "K-Earth was never the No. 1 in overall share. We were always around No. 3 (among) persons 12-plus.
"We came close when we gave away $1,000 an hour for almost a quarter in 1992. We were No. 1 in revenue many times and were No. 1 in (persons) 25-54 for most of the '90s. That was always our goal as it was the money demo and we had little chance against the teen and 18-34 stations since most of our listeners were 30+." Duffy now works with Hitviews, a company creating videos on the Internet and incorporating advertisers into the content of the video.
The November monthly numbers are significant for K-Earth because they span all age groups. It was also No. 1 in 12+, 18+, Men 18+, 35+, and 35-64. It was No. 2 with Women 18+ and No. 4 with Persons 25-54. Individually, Gary Bryan (mornings), Jim Carson (middays) and Shotgun Tom Kelly (PM drive) all achieved #1 or #2 rankings.
Kaye, who also voice tracks a KRTH midnight-5 a.m. show, has all the right skill sets in abundance. He knows how to nurture talent, create high-energy yet family-friendly programming flow, and play an expanded list of what he calls "the soundtrack of Southern California" to keep listeners coming back for more.
Evenings, Christian Kelley does Requests & Dedications. Weekends, it is Charlie Tuna and music built around themes ranging from One-Hit Wonders to the Beach Boys. KRTH's HD2 channel features Kelley with commercial-free hits from the '50s and '60s and Humble Harve with "HD Diner" nightly 8 p.m.-midnight. My favorite way to jumpstart my day – Bryan's Flying Fickle Finger of Fate segment on the morning show.
KRTH personalities Tuna, Bryan and Sylvia Aimerito will be at a "People & Pets Stuff A Truck Food Drive" starting at 9 a.m. Saturday at Smart & Final, 11221 W. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles – Pico at the 405 Freeway in West L.A.

The Science of Being A Good Person
Keepin' Time
Published: Thursday, November 3, 2011
Updated: Friday, November 4, 2011 00:11
[Our apologies for the dark footage. iPods don't take that great of video]
I get to do a lot of really cool stuff with this job. Under the guise of some kind of "professional" music journalist, I get free CD's in the mail every week and I get to talk to some of my favorite musicians on the phone or otherwise. You wouldn't believe whose numbers I have in my phone. It's a trip. I am forever grateful to my school and to my coworkers here at the Clock for trusting that I have some idea of what I am doing and giving me the elbow room to get it done. Most people, including people in popular bands, are good people. Of course, a lot of publicists and managers won't give the time of day to a small New Hampshire school that really doesn't fall anywhere near any of their target touring markets or even contain a record store, but you have to work with what you've got. There are a lot of cool people (like Natalie at Equal Vision Records and Liz at Earsplit Press – THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH) that will return all of your emails and hook you up with what you need to get the job done with a smile on their face. On the artists' end, for the most part, they are ready and willing to answer questions about their music and are usually pretty pleasant as long as the spotlight is kept on them.
That being said, I have thoroughly enjoyed almost every interview I've done in my college career, but few more than my conversation with indie rap superstar Astronautalis last week. Members of the Clock staff flew down to Orlando for a media conference with hundreds of other colleges last week, and Astronautlalis happened to be playing at a club just a bus ride from our hotel. Veronica and I had already planned on attending, but a couple nights before the show we had one or two adult beverages and decided to email Astronautalis' manager and see if we could get a face to face conversation. Surprisingly, we were quickly emailed back and told that while he had already had some press lined up for that day, he hated to turn down an interview and gave us a 5:30 time slot.
We waited in the rain outside the venue, and I paced back and forth nervously, trying to remember my questions. Astronautalis (he goes by Andy in person) came outside personally to fetch us and took us in the back door of the venue, up the stairs to the lounge.
If you know anything about Andy Bothwell, you know he is an intense and passionate performer with an unbelievable stage presence, which is eclipsed only by his ridiculous vocabulary and an ability to transition from singing to rapping that is completely unparalleled in the hip-hop world. This guy has been all over, opening for Tegan & Sara and P.O.S., among others. He counts the cast of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia as friends and if you look closely, you can see the rapper's posters in Charlie's bedroom on the show. He also has just about the most intense eyes I have ever seen on a human being. I mean, piercing, icy blue. Needless to say, I was intimidated.
But once we got to talking, I felt more at ease than I had in any other interview. Bothwell is humble and engaging, quick with an easygoing laugh and devoid of ego. He was honestly one of the easiest, most stress-free interviews I have ever had the pleasure of doing, and I did it hungover in a stuffy Orlando back lounge surrounded by a crew of managers and members of his band I had never met. Then he played a set that had me literally on the verge of tears for how amazing he was live. I had a lump in my throat. No joke. Veronica and I risked missing our bus back to the hotel (Which would have resulted in a $50 cab ride) to catch the encore. He was that good.
At some point in the interview, Andy told Veronica and I something along the lines of "If you're a good person, people will pay you money for what you do." While I have met plenty of good dudes in bands that went nowhere, Andy's formula seems to work in reference to himself. Astronautalis' flawless new album This Is Our Science, is garnering critical praise the world over, and for good reason. There are beat-centric bangers, there are ballads, and there are brainy tongue twisters of hip-hop mastery of epic proportions. You should buy it. Really, you should go to a store or log onto iTunes and pay valid American currency for this record. It's absolutely incredible, and I don't think I know anyone who wouldn't love it. Furthermore, if and when you purchase This Is Our Science, you can take comfort in knowing that you are supporting not only an amazingly talented artist, but also a terrific example of a human being. Check out my interview with Andy at www.theclockonline.com, and email me at firstname.lastname@example.com for a list of my favorite Astronautalis songs.

Sullivan's School Recognizes Earth Day
By Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Byron C. Linder Posted: April 18, 2012
YOKOSUKA, Japan – Students at Commander Fleet Activities Yokosuka's (CFAY) The Sullivan's elementary school learned about the importance of recycling during an Earth Day presentation, April 17.

To prepare the students for this year's Earth Day, representatives from CFAY's Qualified Recycling Program (QRP) gave a presentation to educate students about recycling. Earth Day is an internationally recognized day of observance, aimed at educating people about the earth and conservation, and inspiring initiative to begin new conservation and recycling projects. "The greatest benefit of these presentations is creating awareness," said Roy Ito, recycling branch head for CFAY QRP. "Before we came here, most of these kids didn't know there was a recycling program," he said. Ito visited five of the school's 4th grade classes educating them about the impact that recycling has on the world. "It is a lot easier to teach children than adults, who are more set in their ways," Ito said. "Hopefully the kids will take home what they learned and teach their parents something." Earth Day is a day intended to promote awareness of environmental issues, including recycling and conservation. "It is great we could have someone come to teach the students about recycling, when Earth Day is just around the corner," said Sabrina Bishop, a teacher at The Sullivan's elementary school. "We also have a field trip to the recycling center planned, so the kids can see how everything they learned is put to use." The first Earth Day was organized on April 22, 1970, by Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson after witnessing the devastation of a 1969 oil spill. In 1990, Earth Day became an internationally recognized event, and is now observed in nearly 200 countries.

I have been watching on Facebook and Twitter as everyone I know says that they have all of their shopping done and are ready for Christmas. Well, leave it to me to be the procrastinator! Not only do I still have gifts to buy, but I also still need to decide on what to give as neighbor gifts this year! And since I love food, and most of my neighbors know this, the gifts have to be foodie related! So, I decided that I'd share some ideas with you of things that I've come across. Click through on the titles of the gifts to see posts from other bloggers who have made these!
Root Beer Reindeer: My sister had a family party (on her husband's side) last weekend, and I went to help her set up. She had these adorable Root Beer Reindeer for the drinks, and I immediately thought they would make a great neighbor gift!
Snow Cones: What a cute idea! Especially here in Utah, when we (usually) have lots of snow, why not use that snow and turn it into snow cones?
Homemade Pancake Mix Jars: I love that the pancake mix in these jars is homemade. I would be thrilled to receive something so cute as one of these jars!!
Truffle Hot Chocolate Balls: I was in love when I first saw these. You make these chocolate balls that turn into luxurious and delicious hot chocolate. Seriously delicious! And I saw another blogger do these, but put the truffle on a spoon – a perfect way to give a gift!
Chex Mix: (pictured above) Make your favorite Chex mix and attach a tag that says "Remember, Santa "Chex" his list twice! Happy Holidays!" Since I love Chex mix in any form, this one is on of my favorites!!
What are you giving for neighbor gifts this year?
2 Responses to "celebrate: holiday gift ideas"
what amazing ideas! Thanks for sharing!
We had a neighbor bring a roll of wrapping paper with a note that said that they hoped we got "Wrapped" up in the holiday spirit. I love that idea. How easy and useful!

I'm usually underwhelmed in emergency situations. I can generally always survey my surroundings and can clearly think about the next best course of action. My friend Danielle always said that I'm like that character Robin in "Boys on the Side" where she calms everyone down and tries to resolve the fighting between Holly and her drug-dealer boyfriend.
I've encountered people that yell and scream. Faint. Overreact about everything. {Most of them are know as "family"}. I've always found this behavior pretty silly.
But, I've finally met my match. I finally found myself in a situation where not a single thought came to my head, and all I could think of was throwing up. I was no help to anyone.
It's a sick child in the middle of the night who can't breathe.
- Who's shaking uncontrollably.
- Who's body is racking with deep, harsh coughs.
- Who's barely able to squeeze enough air through her throat to beg me to take her to a doctor.
For what felt like an eternity, all I could do was look at her. Panicking. Waiting for my brain to kick in.
Then the wave of nausea. All I wanted to do was throw up. So, I sat down. I stopped breathing. Thought I was going to faint.
All sounds fell away except the EEEEEEE AAAAAA EEEEEE AAAAAA.
What happened next is beyond my comprehension. I felt moved by something other than my brain. I found myself digging through the back of the closet for the old nebulizer we hadn't touched in over a year…I walked straight into the kitchen and dug behind the Swiffers and dog treats and found the small brown paper bag of albuterol we got last year for her brother in case he needed it. Somehow, luckily, it didn't expire until August.
I walked right over to a drawer in the kitchen and dug through the K Cups and pulled out the mouth piece for the nebulizer.
I put this whole contraption together, plug it in, and get her breathing it in. Cover her with blankets because it's now 12:30 a.m. and feels freezing cold.
I give her ibuprophen. Another round of the albuterol.
I sit down and cuddle with her.
And that is the first time I started consciously thinking again. Started thinking about next steps. Urgent care was closed. Should we go to ER? Which would you regret more, 5 hours in the ER at the risk of them doing nothing more, or her struggling to breathe the rest of the night? Or worse? Easy choice. Now, which ER? The regular hospital, or the children's hospital?
In the end, everything turned out fine. She has croup, had an asthmatic response and has been diagnosed with a "reactive airway".
As is usual for a kid, she is perfectly fine now and is not even acting tired. And, as is usual for me, it has dramatically changed my life.
I'm comforted by the fact that something took care of us when I couldn't. Not sure if it was Mother's instinct, the Universe, her Guardian Angel, MY Guardian Angel…or something else I haven't quite conceptualized yet. All I know is that it wasn't me.
I also know that I will not test my luck with it though. I'm going to put all emergency first aid kits, the nebulizer and it's pieces and parts, etc. organized, labeled and communicated to everyone in the house in case I'm not home or I go mute again.
Luck favors the prepared, right?

Todd Robinson Withdraws Candidacy for Atlanta Council District 2
- 2-26-2013
Todd Robinson, who had announced his candidacy to challenge incumbent Councilman Kwanza Hall (District 2), in the 2013 Municipal Elections, has withdrawn his candidacy, Atlanta Progressive News has learned.
"After further consideration and discussions with my family, I have come to the realization that the timing of my effort is not quite right. I will continue to serve my community in many other ways and will re-evaluate public service at a later date," he said in an email to APN. He has also been sending emails to supporters, once of which was also forwarded to APN by a reader.

We haven't really talked about this yet, but he fouls a lot. Also, I think he may lead the league in unsuccessful block attempts per minute. Not a minus, though.
Pierce played his second straight game off the bench with a protective glove after returning early from a broken hand injury. Like Tuesday, he wasn't spectacular, but he also didn't look out of place. Got a nice look for three in transition and made a few vintage moves to the basket, pirouetting around defenders and finding slivers of space.
Solid, but he doesn't look fully healthy.
Hard to really measure his impact, though the way he reacted on the bench to Andray Blatche's superfire in the third quarter was good enough for me.
Like a mute skunk, he quietly stunk.
You could argue that he gets an A+ for playing his second straight game like Healthy Deron Williams™, for an excellent two-way game where he pushed the pace against the league's premier point guard, for hitting his three-pointers and playing system defense, and for controlling the game in the way that he knows and few other players can only dream of.
But really, Deron Williams gets an A+ for these two plays and you damn well know it as well as I do.
Please stay healthy.
Great game from Iso and Sniper Joe alike; got loose off flare screens and in the corners on more than one occasion and even played some decent possessions out of the post. Carried the team offensively for much of the game.
Left the game in the third quarter with an ankle injury, a potentially crushing blow. Didn't have a field day against DeAndre Jordan, but was effective in his minutes.
ANDRAY BLATCHE WENT FULL BLATCHE. In the third quarter, with Brook Lopez out of the game following a scary injury, Blatche surpassed his season averages in the first half, and putting on his best show in the fourth quarter, hitting ridiculous midrange jumpers, setting up Mason Plumlee for an easy dunk. He played so well that the got a chance to live out what I can only assume was his childhood dream: the crowd roared for a Blatche clearout to close the third quarter. He got the ball at the top of the key, dribbled in place for a few seconds, and clanked a 28-foot three-pointer.
Like I said: Blatche went full Blatche. No other way to say it.
The Nets are a completely different team now that Deron Williams is back and Paul Pierce has shifted to a sixth-man role. The team is unselfish on offense and lockdown on defense, scoring 81 points through three quarters while holding the Clippers to just 33.3% shooting from the field.
While Williams and Pierce have been impressive, integral parts to the recent Nets success, point-forward Andray Blatche has been in a world of his own! Blatche went unconscious in the third quarter, hitting one crafty shot after another, none sweeter then a rainbow jumper over DeAndre Jordan.
The Barclays Center erupted as Blatche played point guard to close out the third quarter. A standing ovation was all too appropriate for the 9-year veteran and his explosive play as of late. As for the play? He clanked the three. But the way he carried the third quarter, who cares?
Brooklyn Nets center Brook Lopez suffered a sprained right ankle in the third quarter Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers and would not return to the game, the team announced.
Lopez sprained the ankle crumpling to the ground after a double-team in the post. He left the game immediately afterwards, staying on the bench and even returning briefly before heading to the locker room. It is Lopez's third ankle injury this season and the second to his left ankle; Lopez sprained the left ankle against the Phoenix Suns on November 15th and missed eight games with the injury.
It's a sickening blow to the team: just as Deron Williams returns to form, Lopez goes down with yet another ankle injury. There is no word yet on whether or not the Nets will play him tomorrow against the Detroit Pistons, but they usually do not play injured players on the second half of back-to-backs.
Deron Williams is putting on a show in Brooklyn!
After teasing us with a nasty crossover on Chris Paul and nailing a three-pointer, D-Will showed us the real stuff just moments later. Williams went vintage and crossed up CP3 yet again, hitting the beautiful floater to end the second quarter.
The killer crossover is back. Deron Williams took us back to his Utah Jazz days, crossing over Chris Paul, turning Paul around as he drained the triple. Its good to see Williams's ankles are holding up and he's still able to show us that he's got it.
After sitting out nine straight games, Deron Williams has come back on fire. Williams played an excellent game in Tuesday's victory over Boston, scoring a season-high 25 points. Having Williams back and healthy has completely changed the team's dynamic; they are active on defense and potent on offense. And after struggling in the beginning of tonight's game, Deron had taken over and looks as good as ever.
The frustration's mounting for Brooklyn Nets forward Andrei Kirilenko, who now says he'll need at least ten more days before he returns to the court -- if that.
"I'm definitely getting better every day. From this point, it's very tough to give a timetable. Probably ten days," Kirilenko told The Brooklyn Game before Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Starting Lineup: Deron Williams, Alan Anderson, Joe Johnson, Kevin Garnett, Brook Lopez.
Injury report: Andrei Kirilenko (back) and Jason Terry (knee) will both sit. Paul Pierce will come off the bench for the second straight game.
When & Where: 8 P.M. EST, Barclays Center, Brooklyn
Watch: T.N.T.
Listen: CBS WFAN 660 AM, 101.9 FM
Riding their first winning streak of the year (technically!), the Brooklyn Nets take on the Los Angeles Clippers. Of course, this game's storyline lies in Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce finally playing against their former coach, Doc Rivers, as well as Deron Williams facing off against Chris Paul. The Nets played the Clippers on November 16th and ultimately lost 110-103 without Garnett, Pierce, Williams or Lopez available.
Tonight, they're all healthy (or healthy-ish) and will look to avenge their loss from earlier this season. Here are the three biggest questions going into tonight's tilt against the Clippers:
1. How badly will Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan abuse the Nets in the post?
Via Frank Isola of the New York Daily News:
Knicks, Nets & Warriors all interested in Toronto point guard Kyle Lowry.
— Frank Isola (@FisolaNYDN) December 12, 2013
Lowry, a quick point guard, has an expiring contract worth $6.2 million. He's been more closely connected with the Knicks than anyone else, and the Nets don't really have much to offer to the Raptors. Toronto and Brooklyn both have full rosters, meaning the Nets and Raptors have to give up an equal amount of players (or waive players) to make any trade work.
The Nets could offer some combination of Mirza Teletovic, Reggie Evans, and their minimum-salary players for Lowry, or go big and take back additional salary in a trade that sends Paul Pierce or Kevin Garnett away. (Not happening) I don't see an enticing package for a team loosely looking to move a solid point guard.
Plus, as Howard Beck of Turner Sports/Bleacher Report says:
Re Kyle Lowry: I'm told Raptors are shopping him everywhere, but NY is "most promising destination" at this point. TOR wants a 1st-rd pick.
— Howard Beck (@HowardBeck) December 12, 2013
If the Raptors want a first-round pick, the Nets don't have much to offer. The next pick the Nets can trade via CBA rules is in 2020, and I'd be shocked if the Nets moved a pick seven years in the future for an expiring contract in 2013. More likely, the Nets have been placed in the discussion to drive up the asking price for other teams.
But we'll keep an eye on it.
