I borrowed this from the enormously clever Dr. BG at The Animal Pharm Blog.
How to Give Yourself Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: 101
–lack of sunlight/vitamin D/indoor habitation
–mental stress
–more mental stress
–sleep deprivation… (excessive mochas/lattes at Berkeley cafes)
–excessive 'social' calendar
–inherent family history of autoimmune disorders (who doesn't??)
–wheat, wheat, and more wheat ingestion ('comfort foods' craved in times of high cortisol/stress, right? how did I know the carbs were killing me?)
–lack of nutritious food containing EPA DHA, vitamin A, sat fats, minerals, iodine, etc
–lack of play, exercise, movement (or ?overtraining perhaps for Oprah's case)
–weight gain — which begins an endless self-perpetuating vicous cycle of all the above (Is it stressful to balloon out for no apparent reason? YES)
If you haven't done so already, take a look at Animal Pharm you will get a real kick out of Dr. BG's quick-witted take on things.
We are systematically looking for low thyroid (hypothyroidism) in everyone and findings oodles of it, far more than I ever expected.
Much of the low thyroid phenomena is due to active or previous Hashimoto's thyroiditis, the inflammatory process that exerts destructive effects on the delicate thyroid gland. It is presently unclear how much is due to iodine deficiency in this area, though iodine supplementation by itself (i.e., without thyroid hormone replacement) has not been yielding improved thyroid measures.
I find this bothersome: Is low thyroid function the consequence of direct thyroid toxins (flame retardants like polybrominated diphenyl ethers, pesticide residues in vegetables and fruits, bisphenol A from polycarbonate plastics) or indirect toxins such as wheat via an autoimmune process (similar to that seen in celiac disease)?
I don't know, but we've got to deal with the thyroid-destructive aftermath: Look for thyroid dysfunction, even in those without symptoms, and correct it. This has become a basic tenet of the Track Your Plaque approach for intensive reduction of coronary risk.

Nick Saban on multi-year scholarships three weeks ago: "No problem."
•Football Schedule•Basketball Schedule•Forum•About•ContactNick Saban on multi-year scholarships three weeks ago: "No problem."
"I think it's humorous that the academic institution can give an academic scholarship and take it away when a student doesn't perform at a certain GPA-level, but it's absolutely the worst thing you can do as a coach."
-Derek Dooley
I have a tendency to agree with this.
@OHIOKLAHOMA, I can see where you are coming from on this, however, I just think athletically you never really know how the transition will be from the high school ranks to the college ranks. So if you are betting on a kids raw talent in athletics and he doesn't perform and you yank his scholarship, I have a hard time comparing that to a kids academics. Academics I just feel you have more control over it, you don't get injured, or put your body through the rigors of practice etc...should he really be punished if he's hurt and that effects his speed and his ability to compete in the long run?...this is all IMO of course.
while i agree with you both. There are some changes to the academic side of things. in HS homework is weighted pretty heavy towards your grade in classes, where as college it may only be 1 midterm and 1 final that determine your grade. you dont have parents around making sure you're doing your work. a lot of kids will have tempation around them they arnt used to having.
Academic scholarships require certain GPA to maintain the scholarship. Athletic scholarships require certain GPA to maintain the scholarship. See Duron Carter. This isn't the NFL. The school isn't going to continue to pay a scholarship for a kid who flunks out. What the multi-year scholly does is make coaches recruit more carefully and it keeps them from cutting players to make room for others who might be more talented.

Awesome photos, cool shots of the bison too!
Heeeeyy, Boo Boo...
Trip Start
May 07, 2011
Trip End
May 30, 2011
Where I stayed
Hampton Inn
What I did
Dinner at Yellowstone Inn (Old Faithful)
Yogi Berra
The big sky was littered with clouds as we crossed over the state line into Montana. The sun still managed to sneak through several areas to spotlight random mountains in the distance. We were on our way to visit the Custer Battlefield Monument.
After crossing the Little Big Horn River, we made our way past the empty guard gate and went into the visitor center to present our park passes. I love the passes. It feels like we're getting in for free, something that the excites the cheapskate in me.
We watched a short movie about the battle and then toured the national cemetery and the markers where the bodies of the soldiers ( including Custer) were found. "There we were against the Indians... two vs. a thousand....toughest two Indians I've ever seen" Bob Hope gets the credit for the line but I stole it for the moment.
We left the battlefield and headed to one of our ultimate destinations, Yellowstone National Park. About five miles shy of Yellowstone we had a slight traffic delay due to a bison (or buffalo, depending on your preference) that was walking in our lane on the highway. We passed within about 10 feet of him. This was a prelude of things to come. Photographs of several bison encounters are included.
Yellowstone is HUGE. Old Faithful is located 52 miles from the north entrance to the park. We rode the distance through the park, much of it with snow banks piled four to six feet high on either side of the road. Had dinner waiting for the next eruption but then managed to miss it as the waiter was slow bringing us the bill. I wanted to go back in and take back his tip. Photos of the near miss are included.
Total Miles: 3067
Don't feel too sorry for Wayne not getting to see Old Faithful in all it's glory. He somehow managed to get us seated in the dining room of the Old Faithful Inn which is a reservation only restaurant. Two parties were turned away while I was looking over the menu posted at the entrance. The prime rib buffet was the best meal of the trip. Missing the first thirty seconds of the geyser was not that much of a hardship.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
I recieved this remote for Christmas and was very happy at first glance as I have several remotes for my home theatre. The set-up takes a little time but this isn't a con as I expected it would. The major problem is that Logitech markets this device as user friendly for anyone who comes across it (friends, parents, babysitters, etc.). The simple fact is that it is in no way user friendly. Anyone who wants to watch TV or a movie, or listen to music needs a tutorial on the device. Even after detailed explanation, new users get quickly frustrated.

1. Give me some of that ubiquitous hatred, he calls through cupped hands as I stumble into the merge line. There's no point of reference in the gutter, in the flophouse, in that fucking bar. We all start at zero. Blanks marching in the night—
2. Not marching, but crawling—crawling—no, rolling to and fro in the same ditch, browned by the mud and the piss and necrotic bloodlines that stretch or crawl or roll centuries back.
3. Airports reinvent fatigue. The hard, slogging routine of return. The anticipation/draining passion before exit. The space of airports is cavernous, oppressively open—we are the game and this is the hunting ground. I have my ticket. I have my bags. I'm leaving point A or arriving at point B. My guts bubble. I should've brought some goddamn antacid.
4. If my life were a film, no one would watch it voluntarily: a series of disappointments, much-to much reflection, the still image of that anxious Devil Daddy Death waiting for me at the end of it all, Pepto-Bismol and a shot of whiskey in hand.
5. 33,000ft above ground: the plane begins its descent. It's a small plane, barely visible on the horizon. I lean back in my seat, feel a rising or falling—a sense of rising or falling—lunging at the periphery of my consciousness.
6. The unconscious takes hold: a John Gacy lookalike in the seat beside me sucking severed fingers. He says the plane won't crash. It'll just drift forever. Now that's hell, my friend, he says, picking his teeth with human tendon. You emerge from the nightmare. Diverge into third-person.
7. Gargling saltwater, he looks in the mirror and promises himself Never again, never again am I drinking that shit. He lights a cigarette and exits the bathroom. The clerk, looking at the package of salt, asks Are you planning to pay for that?
8. There's something to be said for airport fiction. Something to be said for the microscopic Oscar nominees chirping away on our laps. Something to be said for this suspended horseshit tedium, carrying me from the crawl. Drifting. Braindead. Celestial…
9. …maybe comical or tragic or tragicomic. You don't give a fuck. The clerk, Pam or Christie, hands you your airport sealed Playboy and returns the change and you say I don't give a fuck. You're not sure what that means but it sounds promising. You have a new mantra. You board the next plane, the five words playing in a mental loop.
10. You decide to start filling in the gaps. You don't need the skeleton. You don't need the blueprint. You dictated the introduction. The end will find itself. Meanwhile, somewhere else, somebody is dying of a disease you can't name or coughing pink foam while staring wide-eyed at the screwdriver protruding from his/her chest. You can't take hold of the form. The narrative takes you wherever the fuck it wants to go…
11. So you board the plane and find your seat. The plane ascends. You open your laptop and switch into first person. I usually watch porn on planes. Low quality digital images fleshing out my fantasy, gaps in the pixels. This distracts me from the thought of imminent death by plane crash. I watch porn and tell myself the pilots aren't suicidal and want to survive the flight as much as I do. I don't want to die. I want to live, but I don't know how.

2012-04-27 12:53:00
Moscow, April 27, Interfax - Russian human rights ombudsman Vladimir Lukin believes that lawyer Dagir Khasavov calling for the creation of sharia courts in Russia should be prosecuted.
Khasavov said in a recent interview with Ren-TV that Russia's Muslims do not wish to go to secular courts and therefore should use sharia courts, adding that bloodshed will happen otherwise.
"This statement gave me hard feelings. I would like to remind to everyone who lives in our country that Russia has a Constitution and laws that citizens are to observe. Decisions on punishment can only be made by courts and they cannot be ignored," Lukin said.
"No doubt, this statement should be followed by prosecution. This statement is provocation and blackmailing, deliberate or not, but the state should react very toughly to this," Lukin said.

The race was much better organized than last year. The race started on time and the distance issue from last year was fixed. The weather was hot (60 at the start and mid 70's at the finish) and there was a strong tail wind, but there were plenty of add stations. Also the course looses 150+ ft of elevation with only a minor climb. The spectators are sparse but encouraging. Also the run along the river is nice.
It's been a little over a week since finishing the 2011 version of this race. Despite having a bummer of a race personally I really like this course and would recommend the race to anyone looking for a nice pretty flat course. I also have to say the RD's did a great job with picking host hotels. The hotel provided a shuttle to the race transportation in the morning starting bright and early at 5:30 and they were at the finish line to help bring us back...even though it was less than 1/2 a mile a way to walk, it felt like a God send to take that shuttle. The aid stations were well stocked and had great helpful volunteers, I especially liked the Hawaiian themed station that was around mile 22-23. It was a good distraction at that time. My only suggestion for future aid stations is to have water and Heed on the same sides or front-back of stations through each station so you could go right to the one you wanted. There aren't a lot of spectators along the course but the ones that were there were very supportive. Personally I'm more concerned about the scenery along the way and that was beautiful along the river. The finishers medals are very cool but the shirts aren't the greatest. Apparently their supplier thinks everyone has very short arms. The volunteers were apologetic about this. The expo was actually bigger than I expected for a race this size but the venue was crowded and it was a little confusing on where to find actual check in, not many signs to lead you up to 2nd floor where it was located, but volunteers again were very helpful. Overall I would definitely do this race again.
I ran the first two Windemere Marathons, and yes, each had their share of issues, all detailed here (except the woman who said the course was 2.5 miles short; uh... no... it was .8 miles short). Anyway, I've run over 30 marathons and live in Spokane, so I reached out and joined the board. I can say that the issues have been heard loud and clear. This is a low-key, fun marathon with an AWESOME medal and shirt. Flat and fast... give it a chance. You won't regret it.
Overall, this was a terrific event. The only problems were that they: 1) failed to properly calculate the finish line (that's right - THE FINISH LINE!); and 2) failed to calculate our time when a train crossed the marathon path forcing runners to stop for several minutes. Regarding the finish line: no one mentioned anything about it being "off" until AFTER we crossed the finish line. So, when we passed under the finish banner, we were told by the race organizer to turn around and keep running (back another 2.5 miles). If you've run one, you know how disappointing and frustrating it is not to be finished when you race to get to the FINISH LINE. What made this HUGE MISTAKE so much worse was that instead of telling us to do 1.25 miles and turn around so we could finish with the banner, the medals and the crowd down the finish chute, they sent us out 2.5 miles to some guy standing near a tree with a clipboard. We didn't even know if this guy was related to the race or not, but it appeared other runners were talking to him. He took our bib numbers and then said, "You're done." After this, we had to walk back to the official "finish" to get the medals and water and food. REALLY?? Problem 2: the train. So, it really did cut right through the course. And, we had to stop. I was on one side of the train and my husband on another. Ugh. I didn't even mind the train, truth told. But, please remember to calculate our time accordingly. Having said that, I recommend this marathon. I enjoyed it very much overall. If they can figure out how to measure 26.2 miles, wow - good times. Great shirts.
I've run 12 marathons prior to this race. The water, HEED and gel stops were well placed and stocked, even for middle- and late-pack racers. I cannot give enough credit to the volunteers and organizers for the support on the course. As with all races that I've run, the race had great and not-so-great moments. There are MANY beautiful parts of the course. There were a couple of turns that could have been better marked, but overall, the course was great. The flaw: the course was short. There's been much bashing of the course. As a casual runner, this was not a problem for me. The organizers have gone to great lengths to appeal to Boston for the BQ runners with success. Not all organizers would do this. Kudos to the organizers for the effort. If running again in WA, I'll be back to this race. Maybe next time, the weather will not be so "nice."
As already detailed, major problems included: 1. Late start 2. All mile markers were wrong and the finish was short of 26.2 (quite a sin, especially for those who didn't have GPS) 3. A train crossed course about 3:20 after start. I was first to get to the train and waited for about 5 minutes as more and more people piled up. They did have someone there writing down the numbers of those delayed, but I don't know how they will differentiate the varying times each runner was delayed for. As of 10 days post-race, the promised time adjustments have not been posted, so I still don't know my time. 4. Sunny and relentlessly hot, with very little shade On the plus side: 1. Few runners, so no crowding on the course 2. Sufficient, well-manned water stations; HEED was a tasty electrolyte drink 3. Pretty scenery for much of race 4. Flat course Overall, I'd say that the organizers fail Marathon 101 for having a course of the wrong length, and I would be cautious about committing your training to this race.
Here we go. My first marathon. Mostly flat. Rolling hills. Aid stations every 2 miles or so, many offering gel. The course is fine. Organization: Lacking. Late start. Screw up on mileage. A few spots to get lost if your not careful. Finish line isn't the finish line? Oh yeah, I have to sign up for another marathon to actually run 26.2. Tough way to train.
Some of the highlights of this NOT marathon were: 1- 25.4 miles of paved trails ran by the Spokane River; views were just beautiful and I could actually look up and enjoy without worrying about tripping like most trail runs. 2- Aid stations were just about right, not considering the sport drink, HEED, which doesn't do much for me. 3- The entire race felt downhill, other than a few small uphills. 4- Post-race food was great: chicken kabobs - as much as you can eat. There were of course a few hiccups as far as race organization. 1- Race started 12 minutes late trying to line up with the half marathon, which had nothing to do with marathon they started at half point, They could have easily started this race at 6:00 a.m. instead of 7:00, since we had bright light by 5:00 a.m.; this would have prevented people from being out there in heat! 3- Of course, last but most important: The race was cut short by .8 miles by the biker who was supposed to lead the elites! I realized this as soon as I saw mile marker 3 in less than 20 minutes! They had a biker at mile 25 telling people that if they want a Boston qualifier time, they need to turn around at the finish and run another .8 mile to the Red Lion Hotel for the 26.2 distance. Of course, I did, but more than 300 people didn't! This kind of puzzled me; why would you attempt to run a marathon and stop one mile before the finish? This was my 176th marathon and the only one where the finish line wasn't at the finish! I finished in just under 4 hours, BQed and placed first in my age group.
If I run a race that is advertised as a marathon, I expect to run a measured distance. After the lead cyclist took everybody the wrong way early on there was a half-hearted attempt to let some runners make up the distance at the end. I was asked if I wanted to run a Boston qualifier. I didn't, but I did want to know where I needed to turn around so that I could run the full marathon distance rather than having to stand at the finish line for nearly 3 minutes asking the question. I traveled from the UK for this race. I wish I hadn't.
Pros: nice goody bag; plenty of water stations and gel; friendly and helpful spectators and volunteers. Cons: The course was too short. Yes, the measured course was a certified course, but that was not the course that was run. Due to some confusion right after the start, the runners took a wrong turn and ended up cutting the course short. The times listed on MarathonGuide.com are for the short course. The option was given to run longer to make up the distance, but that route was very poorly marked. Also, many runners finished and didn't know they needed to turn around until after they'd crossed the finish line, or why they needed to go back. Also, there is a train crossing near the end of the race, and runners have been stopped by it each year.

Top ten hidden beauty spots in Ireland - SEE PHOTOS
Some of beautiful spots around Ireland off the tourist trail
SEE PHOTOS - Ireland's hidden gems
Read more: Solis Lough Eske Castle, Donegal - why cant all hotels be like this?
We all know the Ireland of Saints and Scholars, Book of Kells, Guinness Storehouse and Dublin Castle, not to mention the Ring of Kerry and Cliffs of Moher. But what about a trip to the hidden Ireland, where few tourists go?
Here are the top ten hidden beauty spots that will make your vacation there very special.
1. Cooley Mountains, in County Louth. Towering over the border areas, the Cooley peninsula has been cut off because of The Troubles as a tourism spot. Which has meant that it is incredibly unspoilt, with beautiful views North and South over Carlingford Lough from its peaks. The grandeur and beauty of Kerry without any of the high prices or tourist traps is how our guide described it. Just take your car and drive north to Dundalk and head for the Cooley peninsula.
2. South Armagh. Once known as Bandit Country during The Troubles, it too, like Cooley suffered greatly because of those bad times. It has stunning vistas, beautiful mountain ranges and a wonderful Irish music tradition. Tommy Makem of the famous Makem and Clancy Brothers hails from here and his legacy and that of the South Armagh musical tradition can be found in the pubs. Nearby Slieve Gullion national park is one of the great nature parks of Ireland, North or South.
3. Bettystown/Laytown. Just twenty five miles North of Dublin in County Meath are Bettystown and Laytown, two beautiful little villages with wonderful beaches and a huge expanse of Irish Sea. Many Dubliners take their vacations there but overseas tourists are rare. There is a championship golf course and inexpensive lodgings and restaurants.
4. Ring Gaeltacht. You may be familiar with Dingle, Gweedore and Connemara Gaeltachts or Irish speaking locations, but Ring just six miles from Dungarvan in Waterford is the smallest gaeltacht in Ireland and a beautiful and remote spot. Here you can hear the language of your ancestors, visit the little town and surrounding villages and step back in time.
5. Slieve Bloom Mountains Laois. One of the great natural assets of County Laois in the Irish midlands is the Slieve Bloom Mountains, which also touch surrounding counties such as Offaly.
They are without a doubt one of Ireland's hidden gems and under rated beauty spots.
The best entry point is via Portarlington. The magnificent Slieve Bloom Way boasts an almost unlimited amount of different activities including walking, cycling, auto touring, heritage tours, equestrian trails and Irish music and dancing festivals.
6. Cavan lakes. They say there are 365 lakes in County Cavan, one for each day of the year. Just drive to the county about sixty miles Northwest from Dublin and you will find them in abundance. Glorious angling, unspoilt vistas and well away from the tourist traps, the Cavan lakes are an undiscovered wonder.

I have the C5505 running at 65.536 MHz, with DSP-BIOS (22.214.171.124), which by default uses general purpose timer 0 and generates a clock tick every 1 millisecond.
Can GP timer 1 be used as well?
If I want to generate an interrupt, how do I do this if general purpose timer 0 is being used by DSP-BIOS?
I need to generate an interrupt every 8.33 msec. With gp timer 1, it looks like I can do that if I set the prescale to 5 and timer period of 109225. However, I am unsure of how to set up the interrupt, because it looks like it is also shared with the timer 0 Bios interrupt. Do I create a new interrupt service routine that distinguishes between a BIOS interrupt and the timer 1 interrupt?
Todd Anderson
Just spotted a flaw in my logic - the PSCDIV does not allow for divide by 5, it works in powers of 2 from divide-by-2 to divide-by-8192...
Todd Anderson,
Have you seen the BIOS PRD module? PRD is for "periodic" and will let you create a function that runs periodically. You can configure how often you want it to run (period) as well as which function to run.
You can create a new PRD from within the BIOS config file (*.tcf). Just right click on "PRD - Periodic Function Manager" and then select "insert new PRD". Then, you can configure the PRD instances' properites:
Thanks for your input!
Yes, I am aware of the PRD module, but to get the granularity needed to go 8.33 msec between periods would mean that the "usual" tick of 1 msec would suffer. I actually found another way of doing the precedure, so I do not need the timer. However, the question remains - if using a general purpose timer for the DSP-BIOS timer tick, are other GP timers available? OR is it assume that everything will be done under the Bios umbrella?
If I choose to use one of the other GP timers, how do I handle interrupts?
Did you enable the GP timer interrupt?
If so, then you should be able to map that interrupt to a HWI in BIOS. You would configure the HWI whose number matches the GP timer interrupt to run the function (ISR) you define.
Also, I not sure if you've already seen this but it came up in a Google search: http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spru595c/spru595c.pdf
Thanks Steve.
However, I see some problems yet. In the DSP-BIOS GUI, I have a choice of 3 timers to use. If I pick one for DSP-BIOS (say Timer 0), BIOS creates the necessary interrupt service routine to use when servicing "timer ticks." It then looks like I have the choice to use the other 2 timers, if necessary.
If I use Timer 1, AND I also need to have associated interrupts, then I need to be able to create an interrupt service routine that will distinguish between Timer0 interrupts and Timer1 interrupts, because of the "timer interrupt aggregation." In that interrupt service routine, I would need to "Branch" to the Timer0 interrupt service routine if it was a Timer0-associated interrupt or "Branch" to the Timer1 interrupt service routine for the Timer1-associated interrupt.
Why is it necessary to use a general purpose timer if I can use PRDs inside of DSP-BIOS? Usually, BIOS events are clocked at a rate of around 1 msec timer ticks, and the PRDs can be set up for larger timings, around increments of milliseconds. There are times that a specific rate is needed - like 8.33 msec - to create a timer tick that would get to that would probably complicate larger timings, create more code, and add additional overhead in terms of interrupt timings.
All of this assumes that I can use Timer1 when Timer0 is being used for DSP-BIOS. The question I still need answered:
If Timer0 is being used by DSP-BIOS, do I have access to Timer1 and Timer2?
Hi Todd,
I found the following in the BIOS API guide for C5000, I think this may be what you need.
This property lets you specify the function that should run for Timer 0 - 2, as well as the argument to that function and is specific to your h/w (5505).
(Note: looking at this, I think the value for "Tconf Name: INPUTCLK" may be incorrect and is a bug in the document. Based on the description, I think what's shown in the Example part is what you need [bios.CLK.TIMER0FUNC]...)
Timer 0-2 Function. Specifies the function to be executed when thecorresponding timer interrupt occurs. ('C5505 only.)Tconf Name: INPUTCLK Type: NumericExample: bios.CLK.TIMER0FUNC =prog.extern("timer0Fxn");❏ Timer 0-2 Argument. Specifies the argument to be passed to thetimer function when the corresponding timer interrupt occurs.('C5505 only.)Tconf Name: INPUTCLK Type: NumericExample: bios.CLK.TIMER0ARG = 0
Thanks for you past answer. I noticed that the DSP/BIOS 5.42.00.07 inserts a call to _CLK_dispatch into HWI_4.
Because it is grayed out, I cannot set up a different routine that would distinguish between the 3 interrupt sources. So, it looks like I cannot use timer interrupts for timer1 or timer2 if I am using timer0 as a BIOS timer tick.
I managed to get it working. I can now run timer0 as the DSP/BIOS timer and also set up timer1 to give independent interrupts. I turns out that the key was setting up the pointer to the timer1_isr routine in the CLK - clock manager. With timer0 set up for the BIOS, I was able to point at timer1 tab and set up the pointer to the isr.
I was then able to set up the GPT functions to get timer1 going - one of the keys is to make sure that the timer1_isr function has two instructions:
CSL_SYSCTRL_REGS->TIAFR = 0x02; // Clear Timer Interrupt Aggregation Flag Register (TIAFR)
So far, so good. No defined need for the general purpose timers (1 & 2) yet, but there may be an independent time-out that will become necessary.

School of Language, with Riddle of Steel and OK Jones

The Record Bar
Review by JASON HARPER

Bird Illustration by JOHN JAMES AUDUBON
For the lead singer and guitarist in a challenging, sonically adventurous post-hardcore rock band, it must be more than deflating to be in the bathroom of a bar after playing a set and have a broseph in a crew cut tell you your band reminds him of Incubus. But for Riddle of Steel frontman Andrew Elstner, this is an opportunity to exhibit grace and class and extend welcome to a new (if not cultured) fan. "Oh, OK, yeah, thanks. I'll take that, as long as you dig it," Elstner said, simultaneously considering the source (i.e., fratboy) accepting his comment as a compliment, AND also making sure the guy wasn't making fun of him. Turned out, the fratteur loved Incubus and meant the remark kindly.
(By the way, it must also really SUCK when you go to start a MySpace account using your band name only to find that some random person somewhere has already registered the name. Imagine Riddle of Steel's chagrin when they attempted to reserve www.myspace.com/riddleofsteel only to find that "DMDemise" had already claimed it:
All beeswax aside, it was a boutique of chops last night at the Record Bar as Riddle of Chops played between OK Chops and School of Chops, the last of which I'd been excited about seeing since discovering Field (of Chops) Music over a year ago.
Fronted by David Brewis, who plays in Field Music with his brother Paul Brewis and keyboardist Andrew Moore, School is rounded out by two guys with huge reputations in Midwestern music circles: Doug McCombs of Tortoise on bass and drummer Ryan Rapsys of Euphone and Heroic Doses.
I was rooting around for Spoon videos to post with our preview of the band online (found a rad Paul Simon cover), and I found these beguiling videos of a Japanese robot dancing to a couple of recent Spoon hits. The robot is called Keepon, and it consists of two conjoined yellow spheres, with perky, rudimentary eyes and a black-button nose on the upper sphere. (I don't know why, but it reminds me of Baron Silas Greenback's pet caterpillar Nero from DangerMouse.
I'm not usually the type to give two farts about some Japanese toy, but this little critter is compelling -- hell, it dances better than every single white person in midtown. And then I think, how it is it even possible to communicate "dancing" with a squiggly little ball-like creature, much less higher emotions like "curiosity" and "look at me I'm cute and quirky"? That question's for the behaviorists, I suppose. I do know the music helps, because Spoon, of course, gots the groove.
Here it is, dancing to "I Turn My Camera On"

When I was in high school, video cameras were still large, heavy and required Dad's permission to borrow.
But since digital video cameras became affordable and cuter than shit, every bored, suburban teenager seems to have one. And while there are undoubtedly thousands of budding Kubricks out there making mind-blowing films, there are also thousands of kids filming each other's minds being blown.
So while experimenting with drugs, as bored, suburban teenagers are wont to do, they can film each other tweaking out. Later, when they upload it all onto YouTube, they end up outing
themselves on the 'net, thereby educating us old folks about what the kids are up to these days.Interestingly, the most creative ways of getting high aren't even illegal in most states. There's a plant called Salvia divinorum that looks like mint, but has no distinct smell. When smoked, it produces a brief-but-intense high that includes hysterical laughing and inexplicable hallucinating. Sound fun?
I thought so too, until I saw this guy.
He is SO grounded.
Salvia was deemed a Schedule 1 hallucinogen in Missouri in 2005. It's still legal in Kansas, but just today, Senate Bill 481 passed the Kansas House and is on its way to becoming law.
"Robotripping" is the other not-at-all-new, legal substance that you and the hot girl from Econ are guzzling by the bottleful on YouTube. I remember kids talking about the 'Tussin back in high school, but it never seemed that appealing to me. Maybe this next video, posted by someone from Lawrence, is why.
Some people might find these videos immensely entertaining, but these kids' moms probably don't. Just a tip, kiddos: After you're done rewinding and watching and laughing at your friends drooling and rolling around on the floor, press ERASE.

If I were a more scientifically-minded person, I would have conducted an experiment last night at the Mission Bowl. During the 10 p.m. to midnight Rock 'n' Bowl session, I would have written down the name and title of each music video playing as I tossed the ball down the lane and then made a note of my score for that frame. Would modern butt rock inspire more strikes than emo rock? Probably, the results would have been a wash. As it was, butt rock ruled the night, anyway, and all those pitchers of Bud Light surely had the most effect on whatever my final score was.
But the Wednesday night Rock 'n' Bowl is a great concept: two hours of unlimited bowling for $8, plus cheap food and beer, and music videos on a big screen. Granted, one of the videos was for "Paralyzer," Finger Eleven's lame song about meeting a girl at a club. But considering the only other place I see videos these days is online, I swallowed my elitism for the night.

The Jackpot Saloon
Better than: Slim Goodbody's upcoming appearance at the Folly Theater
By RICHARD GINTOWT
Great drummers have a way of making ok bands into great bands. Aloha has two of them, but the veteran indie band's music has always been more about sublime post-rock melodies than showy sticksmanship.
The quartet has played in Lawrence a ton of times since its inception in 1997, sharing tours with self-reliant acts like Ted Leo, Q and Not U and Cex (the latter of which included drummer Cale Parks). They're distinguished by their liberal use of mallet instruments such as vibraphone and marimba as well as their top-shelf musicianship. It's heady stuff with righteous intentions -- a post-modern fusion of Steve Reich and the Zombies.

The Beaumont Club
By JOHN KREICBERGS
Maybe it was the casual, small-bar rockiness of evening's opening act, the Panderers. Or maybe it was the soothing aroma of nag champa drifting from the stage area. Whatever it was, the atmosphere at the Beaumont for Mike Doughty's Kansas City stop on his Golden Delicious tour was about as relaxed as it could be without handing out Xanax at the door.

Nobody puts baby in a corner: Johnson County District Attorney Phill Kline doesn't give a shit what those abortion-lovin' fat cats on the Johnson County Board of Commissioners think. The rebel with one cause is no showing a meeting today after the Commission demanded he defend his hiring of a special prosecutor to investigate
criminal charges against former Kansas Attorney General Paul Morrison, who had an affair blah, blah, blah courthouse blah, blah blow job, blah, blah resignation. In a three-page suck-my-balls-I'm-not-coming letter to the commissioners, Kline wrote: "My appearance will simply provide more media coverage of an investigation that should be allowed to proceed without the influence of politics." You know, Kline's right. Why should Kline, an elected … err, appointed official, have to explain the way he's spending taxpayer money? Why should Kline have to explain why he hired Tim Keck to be an impartial investigator even though Keck just left a job in the DA's office, which Kline hired him for? Why should Kline have to explain why he hired a man who donated to his failed re-election campaign for AG? Against Morrison? Yeah, suck it, baby killer lovers.Flying high again: Missouri Governor Matt Blunt apparently didn't fly on state-owned airplanes during his first three years in office. Now that he's a lame duck, Baby Blunt is hopping flights on taxpayers' dime. It's also being reported that Baby Blunt is once again peeing while standing up, something he hasn't done since cutting health care for poor people three years ago.
Only a month? I was disappointed when I read the truth about the western Kansas woman who had reportedly sat on her boyfriend's toilet for two years. Turns out 35-year-old Pam Babcock only sat on the toilet for a month but hung out for two years in the bathroom. A month? That's it? This is like finding out Barry Bonds used steroids to hit all of
those homeruns. Or that pro wrestling is fake. Or that there were two Ultimate Warriors. Nothing is real anymore. My faith is shaken.A strawberry shortcake for the prosecutor? The feds accuse former Cherokee County Attorney Michael Goodrich of taking money and receiving "unspecified favors" from the owner of Sensations Gentlemen's Club in
Galena, Kansas. I love the phrase "unspecified favors." I have no idea what the unspecified favors were, but the phrase is so much dirtier than saying blowjobs, hand jobs or a strawberry shortcake. At least, in my imagination.Dude, we're totally going to Blonde this weekend: Dude, I totally know this guy who makes fake IDs. He's cool. Trust me, he's a wizard. He also makes light sabers in his free time. He's got this secret Web site. Here's how to contact him.
Larry Moore up, hoes down: KMBC anchor Larry Moore knows how to sprinkle manure. I live downtown, and the closest grass is where people let their dogs crap outside my building, which actually might make for a good garden. In the spirit of Phill Kline, I don't care what those fat cats in Quality Hill say. I'm going to plant a garden using Larry's timeless tips for growing tomato plants, circa 1985.
To the Chris Packham fan club: After spreading goodwill as American a-hole Justin Kendall overseas, Chris Packham will return to Daily Briefs on Monday. Come back soon, Chris!

R.E.M.'s Jackknife Lee-produced fourteenth studio album, Accelerate, lives up to its speedy title. It's loud, quick and dirty, spinning by so fast that it takes multiple listens to absorb. It's full of buzzing guitars and stream-of-conscious discontent, along with an abundance of Mike Mills' choir-boy harmonies and sinewy bass. And naturally, it hints at the Athens, Georgia, band's past – fuzzy riffs à la 1994's Monster (the title track); the dirty distortion and droning yowls of 1988's Green ("Mr. Richards"); orchestrated elegance circa 1992's Automatic for the People ("Houston"); and the slick political earnestness of 1987's Document ("Until the Day is Done").

"Heaven's Loss" Christmas Cards
Looking for a great Christmas card to send that points back to Christ? We've got it! The first Christmas was a blessing and a time to rejoice for mankind. The Savior was born! However, in Heaven a different story was unfolding. The first Christmas represents a loss for Heaven as one of the Godhead came to earth. Heaven's Loss dramatically depicts that while mankind was celebrating the birth of a King, the angels were weeping for they knew what man did not. They knew Jesus was not born for Christmas — He was born for Easter. This dramatic Christmas card,** created exclusively for Family Talk in collaboration with Ron DiCianni and Tapestry Productions, highlights the beauty of Ron's original masterpiece while the inside verse — "May the message of Jesus Christ, Savior of the World, resonate in your hearts this season and all year long. Merry Christmas" — reminds all on your list what the real meaning of Christmas is. Plus, your donation will help further both ministries in proclaiming . . . Jesus Christ is Lord!

It was back in 1981 when the modern right-wing assault on the role of government in our society began. Then, newly elected President Ronald Reagan said this during his inaugural speech:
"In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem."
The attack continued through the Clinton years with a congressionally inspired government shutdown.

ADDISON COUNTY — Although the high school sports playoff season is in full swing, only one postseason game was scheduled before the Wednesday morning deadline for this edition of the Independent: The Mount Abraham boys' soccer team, the top seed in Division II, hosted No. 16 Bellows Falls on Tuesday afternoon — see story on Page 1B.
VERGENNES — Vergennes Union High School officials confirmed this week that the VUHS board next Monday will almost certainly call for a Dec. 3 vote on a bond proposal that would fund fixes for problems in the school's auditorium, kitchen and cafeteria.
VUHS board and building committee member Kurt Haigis and Addison Northwest Supervisory Union business manager Kathy Cannon said the board is leaning toward warning a bond "in the ballpark" of $2.2 million.
VERGENNES — A hundred minutes of high school boys' soccer ended up in a 1-1 tie on Saturday between host Vergennes and Middlebury as the regular season ended.
The 4-8-2 Commodores unofficially have earned Division II's No. 10 seed, which the Vermont Principals Association was set to confirm early on Monday.
BRISTOL — The Mount Abraham/Vergennes cooperative football team nailed down the No. 4 seed in Division III on Saturday with a 42-0 win over visiting Poultney.
The 6-2 Eagles will host 5-2 Otter Valley this coming Saturday at 1 p.m. in a quarterfinal matchup, with the winner almost certain to travel to meet undefeated defending champion Woodstock the following weekend.
FERRISBURGH — Ferrisburgh Central School officials in the months to come will consider whether to invest in a new boiler that would burn either wood chips or pellets and could save the school money in its heating bills.
According to an Oct. 8 presentation at an FCS board meeting by a Renewable Energy Resources company representative, a wood chip boiler could pay for itself in as few as four years and a wood pellet unit in as few as nine years, depending upon among other things the price of fuel oil.
VERGENNES — The proposed Vergennes toddler playground has a few hurdles to clear before it can be built near the city pool this spring. The project depends on whether the city receives a $25,000 state grant, aldermen heard at their Oct. 8 meeting.
Alderman and city recreation committee head Joe Klopfenstein and City Manager Mel Hawley updated the council on the proposed toddler park at that meeting.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury Union High School field hockey team took a 4-0 loss to visiting South Burlington on Tuesday on what was the Tigers' Senior Day.
BRANDON — The Otter Valley Union High School field hockey team carried an edge in play for most of the Otters' Monday home game vs. Mount Anthony, but fell behind, 1-0, with 6:21 to play.
But the Otters, and senior forward Brittany Bushey, had the answer.
Bushey converted a feed from sophomore middie Maia Edmunds to tie the game a minute after an Amber Morse breakaway put MAU on top.
SOUTH DUXBURY — Cross-country runners from Mount Abraham and Vergennes union high schools participated in Saturday's eight-team Harwood Invitational Meet, and four Eagles posted top-20 results.
On the boys' side, Eagles Chris Carter and Connor Norland were 12th and 20th, respectively, as the Eagles were fifth out of eight scoring teams.
On the girls' side, Genevieve Chiola and Delaynah Leavitt finished 16th and 19th, respectively, as the Eagles took fifth out of six scoring teams.

A line of players waiting to get paid with William "Capo" Capella (Galloway, NJ) at the front holding an 83 green card.
Capo was still recovering from his pocket Kings losing to a QJ flush. Flop gave opponent a gutterball and the flush draw and perhaps he thought two over cards.
Capo bet his remaining 120,000 on the flop, got called, and lost.
"I live ten minutes away. I'm trying to go full time and was hoping to take this down" said Capella who will take home $359 for his 82nd finish.

Hallandale Beach, FL (Sports Network) - Breeders' Cup Classic winner Fort Larned never got the chance to race in Saturday's $300,000 Gulfstream Park Handicap when he lost his rider at the start. The one-mile race was going to be the 5-year-old's season debut.
Sent off as the 4-5 favorite versus five rivals, Fort Larned stumbled at the break and unseated jockey Brian Hernandez Jr. Taking the lead was Fort Loudon with 9-5 second pick Discreet Dancer on the outside.
As the field went up the backstretch, Fort Larned surged past the field notably absent a jockey. Sitting on the actual lead was Fort Loudon who was being pressed by Discreet Dancer and Swagger Jack.
"The second jump out of the gate, he stumbled badly and fell on his face. I don't know what else to say," said Hernandez, who was uninjured. "It's really weird because he warmed up better today than he did before the Classic. He was really on his toes. He did everything right until that moment."
Coming off the final turn, Discreet Dancer and jockey Javier Castellano took the lead leaving the field in their wake. Discreet Dancer drove through the stretch and registered a 5 1/4-length win over Swagger Jack.
Fort Loudon, the 9-2 third choice, was third followed by Gourmet Dinner and Decaf Again.
The time for the mile was 1:35.17 on a fast track.
Trained by Todd Pletcher, Discreet Dancer notched his second straight win and fourth in five career starts. The victory was worth $180,000 to bring the 4- year-old's earnings to $313,150.
Owned by E. Paul Robsham Stables, the chestnut colt was third in last year's Fountain of Youth Stakes at Gulfstream, but was sidelined until winning an optional claiming race last month.
"We were pleased with his first race back. We thought it was a good performance and we thought he'd move forward for this race. Obviously, we benefited from the bad luck for the Breeders' Cup Classic winner, but we're happy to win and we felt he was going to give us a good effort today," said Pletcher from Tampa Bay Downs, where he saddled undefeated Verrazano for a victory in the Tampa Bay Derby.
Discreet Dancer paid $5.80, $4.00 and $4.40. Swagger Jack returned $4.80 and $5.80, and Fort Loudon paid $5.60 to show.
