The New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum
Wooden masks, portraits and the occasional human skull mark the collections of this small museum near the French Quarter
- By Abigail Tucker
- Smithsonian magazine, June 2011, Subscribe
Jerry Gandolfo didn't flinch when a busload of eighth-grade girls began shrieking at the front desk. The owner of the New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum simply assumed that John T. Martin, who calls himself a voodoo priest, was wearing his albino python around his neck as he took tickets. A few screams were par for the course.
Deeper in the museum it was uncomfortably warm, because the priest has a habit of turning down the air conditioning to accommodate his coldblooded companion. Not that Gandolfo minded: snakes are considered sacred voodoo spirits and this particular one, named Jolie Vert ( "Pretty Green," although it is pale yellow), also furnishes the little bags of snake scales that sell for $1 in the gift shop, alongside dried chicken feet and blank-faced dolls made of Spanish moss.
A former insurance company manager, Gandolfo, 58, is a caretaker, not voodoo witch doctor—in fact, he's a practicing Catholic. Yet his weary eyes brighten when he talks about the history behind his small museum, a dim enclave in the French Quarter half a block off Bourbon Street that holds a musty jumble of wooden masks, portraits of famous priestesses, or "voodoo queens," and here and there a human skull. Labels are few and far between, but the objects all relate to the centuries-old religion, which revolves around asking spirits and the dead to intercede in everyday affairs. "I try to explain and preserve the legacy of voodoo," Gandolfo says.
Gandolfo comes from an old Creole family: his grandparents spoke French, lived near the French Quarter and rarely ventured beyond Canal Street into the "American" part of New Orleans. Gandolfo grew up fully aware that some people swept red brick dust across their doorsteps each morning to ward off hexes and that love potions were still sold in local drugstores. True, his own family's lore touched on the shadowy religion: his French ancestors, the story went, were living in Saint-Domingue (now Haiti) when slave revolts convulsed their sugar plantation around 1791. To save Gandolfo's kinfolk, a loyal slave hid them in barrels and smuggled them to New Orleans. The slave, it turned out, was a voodoo queen.
But it wasn't until Gandolfo reached adulthood that he learned that countless Creole families told versions of the same story. Still, he says, "I don't think I even knew how to spell voodoo."
That changed in 1972, when Gandolfo's older brother Charles, an artist and hairdresser, wanted a more stable career. "So I said, 'How about a voodoo museum?'" Gandolfo recalls. Charles—soon to be known as "Voodoo Charlie"—set about gathering a hodgepodge of artifacts of varying authenticity: horse jaw rattles, strings of garlic, statues of the Virgin Mary, yards of Mardi Gras beads, alligator heads, a clay "govi" jar for storing souls, and the wooden kneeling board allegedly used by the greatest voodoo queen of all: New Orleans' own Marie Laveau.
Charlie presided over the museum in a straw hat and an alligator tooth necklace, carrying a staff carved as a snake. "At one point he made it known that he needed skulls, so people sold him skulls, no questions asked," Gandolfo says. "Officially, they came from a medical school."
Charlie busied himself with recreating raucous voodoo ceremonies on St. John's Eve (June 23) and Halloween night, and sometimes, at private weddings, which typically were held inside the building and outside, in nearby Congo Square, and often involved snake dances and traditional, spirit-summoning drumming. Charlie "was responsible for the renaissance of voodoo in this city," Gandolfo says. "He revitalized it from something you read in history books and brought it back to life again." Meanwhile, Charlie's more introverted brother researched the history of the religion, which spread from West Africa by means of slave ships. Eventually, Gandolfo learned how to spell voodoo—vudu, vodoun, vodou, vaudoux. It's unclear how many New Orleanians practice voodoo today, but Gandolfo believes as much as 2 or 3 percent of the population, with the highest concentrations in the historically Creole Seventh Ward. The religion remains vibrant in Haiti.

Well, this article is as highly colored as the museum, but I feel there could have been more of a look at how Voodoo persists in spite of such lingering misconceptions. Voodoo is very much a living religion in New Orleans and the surrounding area, and the religious elements of the faith - ancestor reverence and the worship of gods brought overseas by slaves and kept alive in memory and worship in spite of every attempt to sever ties to the African past - are far more enduring and true to the heritage of Voodoo than "voodoo dolls", love spells, zombies or other such Hollywood fare.

The forthcoming Big 10 Title match-up between Ohio State and Michigan State should have all fans of college football salivating.
This is a game where the theory of immovable object meeting irresistible force will be tested. Ohio are an offensive power like no other at the moment. They average 48.2 points per game in 2013, making them the third-ranked team in the USA. That scoring rate is complemented by the formidable yardage that they rack up too. They have rushed for more yards, and have a higher rushing average, than any other team in the competition.

We spoke to Michael Spath from TheWolverine.com to get the inside scoop on Ohio State's yearly battle with Michigan, which takes place at noon on Saturday.
Ohio State Football have averaged forty-nine points per game, and 531 yds. of total offense. Urban Meyer seems to have given the Buckeyes a new lease of life, with regards to their offensive fortitude. What can Michigan do to counteract this?

It will be an exciting match this weekend as the Ohio State Buckeyes face the Indiana Hoosiers team. The match will begin at 3:30 PM Eastern Time in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio State's head football coach Urban Meyer claimed the Buckeyes have practiced hard for the match as Ohio State prepares to host the Indiana team. The Buckeyes are on a roll with their record breaking winning streak while the Hoosiers want a win to recover from their match with the Badgers.

The long-standing rivalry between the Ohio State Football team and the Illinois Fighting Illini football team is going to see action again this coming weekend, November 16, Saturday. The game will be held in Memorial Stadium and thousands of football fans are expected to root for their teams as the programs head in different directions. Even if the Illinois Fighting Illini have fallen off the wagon quite a bit, it is still one to watch to get your Buckeye fix for another week.

Ohio State has had a rough few years when it comes to baseball. The team is now in its longest absence from championship contention, and a tough schedule has placed the team further back in the pack than it has been in years past. Understanding 2014 means understanding what went wrong in 2013.

On Saturday, the Purdue Boilermakers are going to have their work cut out, when they play host to Ohio State football. This season, the Boilermakers have a 1/6 record, and they are at the foot of the Big Ten. For scoring offense, the team has a 122 ranking nationwide, averaging only 13.1 points per match. They allow 34.4 points per match too, which gives them a nationwide ranking of 106 in this regard. Throughout the season, the Boilermakers have had a high turnover of quarterbacks. Last weekend, they put Etling under center versus the Spartans, but the freshman failed to shine against MSU, achieving just 14-25 for a pick and 160 yards.

Ohio State v. Penn State is always a game worth watching. This year's game means more than most, and may set the tone for the remainder of the season for both teams. Ohio State is favored, but Penn State is looking for an upset.

If the Iowa Hawkeyes want to prevail on the road this Saturday, they better bring their "A" game against the Ohio State Buckeyes. Ranked 4th overall in the NCAA, the Bucks have won 11 of the last 12 meetings against Iowa. Fully energized after a bye week, The Bucks will host Iowa at for their 92nd homecoming game at Ohio Stadium. Ohio has won 73% of their homecoming games, and if that isn't intimidating enough, the Bucks are in the midst of an 18 game winning streak, the longer than any other team in college ball this year.

The Ohio State Buckeyes vs. the Northwestern University Wildcats game is getting a lot of hype, and not for the usual reasons. While the game is certainly a clash of the titans, it's also one that sees the Buckeyes come in with both the momentum and what may well be the better team and the better coaching staff. At the same time, though, there are talks of an upset - not enough to really change the numbers, but enough talk to make the game itself more interesting. The game might not end up being a nail-biter, but it has the potential to be one for the ages.

Following a 76 point win over Florida A&M, the Ohio State football program must turn its attention to conference rival Wisconsin. The Badgers open Ohio State's 2013 conference schedule. While Urban Meyer has made it clear that his team will be prepared for the task, the Wisconsin Badgers pose a serious threat to the Buckeye's season hopes.
As anyone might have predicted, the Ohio State Buckeyes dismantled the outmatched Florida A&M University Rattlers 76-0. Backup QB Kenny Guiton set a new school record with 6 touchdown passes. This is especially impressive when you consider the fact that Guiton didn't even play most of the second half. It only took the Buckeyes 4 plays to score 3 touchdowns. Guiton threw 4 touchdowns in the first quarter alone and it was obvious that No. 4 Ohio State was far too much for FAMU.
When Ohio State football travels to California on Saturday, there are some concerns for the nationally ranked Buckeyes. Their quarterback Braxton Miller is day to day after suffering a knee injury last week against San Diego State. Miller sprained his left MCL on the first Ohio State offensive possession of the game and could not return. Luckily, backup QB Kenny Guiton proved he could lead the Buckeyes in Miller's absence. If Miller is able and can play at his usual level, there is no doubt he will have the chance. He is considered among the Heisman favorites this year, and given his work ethic, it will surprise many if he doesn't play.

The San Diego State Aztecs will travel to Ohio on Saturday September 7th to play our Buckeyes with a 3:30pm kickoff. Of course, they'll be facing the a tough opponent,the Ohio State Buckeyes, to say the least. SDSU is getting plenty of publicity for facing such a highly ranked foe, but the school is coming off a big loss to Eastern Illinois, which should make fans of the Aztecs nervous.
Ohio state buckeyes will open the 2013 Season at home this Saturday in Columbus. They will play against the Buffalo Bulls for the first time ever. The Ohio State Football team will begin the season with an advantage of having won 12 games in the previous season. This is the longest ever winning streak and the Bulls have a big task to handle. Last season was disappointing to the Bulls where they went 4 - 8. However, they managed to win three of their last four games last year.

Hey guys im trying to decide between the two for my first (and maybe only) ph cycle. I have narrowed it down between the two and i was hoping for some opinions on the two. my diet and training are in check. Not looking for anyone to lay out a cycle for me as i have done alot of research and asked alot of questions already, just opinions on effectiveness considering everything including cost. I am cutting/recomping.
the epi 1 test i would get 8 weeks and i think i would stagger it into 6 weeks, arom-x, erase, daa for pct with a serm on hand at a cost of $140 for the epi 1 and the arom x.
cut andro i would get two kits, run for 8 weeks with the form xt, errase, daa, and same serm on hand at a cost of about 250$ for the kit with form xt.
any opinions on the 2 would be greatly appreciated as the cost difference is significant.
also would run a liver support, thinking ai cycle support. thanks

Nelson Mandela started his final journey today as his body was taken from his home in a coffin draped in the South African flag he loved so ardently as it was announced his funeral will be on Sunday, December 15.
Before then, from December 11 to 13, the anti-apartheid hero's body will lie in state in a glass-topped coffin at the Union Buildings in Pretoria, where he was inaugurated as president on May 10, 1994.
It will mark three of the ten days officially assigned as a mourning period for 'Madiba' or 'Tata' as he was devotedly called, ahead of what is expected to be the one of the biggest funerals in history.
Mourners gathered to dance and sing songs of freedom outside his home as the world celebrates the life of the adored statesman who brought peace and equality to his country and died last night aged 95.
He passed away at home in Johannesburg at 8.50pm yesterday and his body was moved to a military hospital in Pretoria this morning, where he is under armed guard.
Imprisoned for 27 years before becoming South Africa's first black president, his courage in the face of persecution made him the most potent symbol of the struggle against apartheid, and an inspiration to millions in his country and billions beyond.
South African president Jacob Zuma announced this afternoon Nelson Mandela's state funeral will be held in Quino, the village where he grew up, and is likely to be attended by world leaders including David Cameron and Barack Obama.
We will miss you Madiba...the man who was ready to die for the freedom of the world!

Volker Schlaandorff, born in Germany in the fateful year 1939, has explored his country's dark history in such films as "The Tin Drum," "The Ogre" and "The Legend of Rita."
Now he returns to the Nazi era in the intense "The Ninth Day," a film mature enough to view the Shoah from a different perspective and to confront the viewer with complex questions of morality, religion and character.
Based broadly on the wartime diary of a Luxembourg priest, the Rev. Jean Bernard, the films opens in a wintry Dachau, where three special barracks have been set aside for clergymen. The vast majority of the occupants are Catholic, but there also are some Protestant and Greek Orthodox ministers who have refused to toe the Nazi line.

Tracking the new Egyptian President on Al Jazeera, the BBC and the Guardian
Today the Egyptian election commission announced Mohammed Morsi as the President of Egypt. Signalnoi.se was tracking the story across Al Jazeera English, the BBC and the Guardian websites and how it spread through Twitter and Facebook. I thought I'd share some of the charts that you'd see in the Signalnoi.se dashboard :
It is not unexpected that Al Jazeera English would see a tremendous gain with this story, especially as it was the de facto news source for the world over the 18 days of the Egyptian revolution leading to the ousting of former President Hosni Mubarak (disclosure : I was the Head of Online at Al Jazeera English until recently). Al Jazeera saw growth on Facebook, where their story was shared, liked and commented on over 11k times as of the writing of this post.
While the Al Jazeera English post dominated both the BBC and the Guardian on Facebook, the BBC did better than Al Jazeera English on Twitter - it had over 450 more tweets than the Al Jazeera English story. What is also interesting about the BBC story is that the number of likes and comments on Facebook track each other. Like for like, they're getting the most discussion across the three news outlets.
Speaking of data and the elections, one of the most fascinating posts I read this evening was by Zeynep Tufekci titled the "Muslim Brotherhood Teaches a Lesson in Elections in the Age of Twitter and Google Spreadsheets". She looks at how the Muslim Brotherhood used Twitter to constantly report data coming out of polling stations across Egypt and tabulated all the data in a Google doc in order to bring transparency to the process and thus limiting the ability of anyone to unfairly influence the outcome of the elections.

DeGioia lauds DREAM Act on local radio station
Posted by: Chris Heller in News, Vox Populi, tags: DREAM Act, John DeGioia, Richard Durbin, WAMUEarlier this month, University President John DeGioia appeared on WAMU to support the passage of the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act.
"[The act] literally has been a dream since first introduced almost a decade ago. Before this session of Congress ends, basic fairness says it is time for this dream to become reality," he said on the NPR-affiliated radio station.
Last Wednesday, the DREAM Act was approved by the House of Representatives. If passed by the Senate, the DREAM Act, which is sponsored by Senator Richard Durbin (SFS '66, LAW '69) will create a path to legal residency for those who came to the United States as undocumented immigrants under the age of 16. To earn residency, DeGioia added, these immigrants must meet "specific, high standards of excellence," such as earning a high school diploma and attending college or entering the military.
"At Georgetown, students who meet the DREAM Act criteria are campus leaders and role models for their generation," he said. "They are pursuing challenging majors, are actively engaged in campus organization, and regularly participate in community service."
Last April, DeGioia wrote a letter [PDF] to congressional alumni to voice his support for the DREAM Act. According to the letter, he took a "particular interest" in the legislation after learning about Juan Gomez (MSB '11), a student whose fight for residency was featured in the Washington Post Magazine in February 2009.

Grace Is Resistible...Until It's Not
Learn your doctrine from texts. It stands up better that way, and feeds the soul. For example, learn irresistible grace from texts. In this way you will see it does not mean grace cannot be resisted; it means that when God chooses he can and will overcome that resistance.
In Isaiah 57:17-19, for instance. God chastises his rebellious people by striking them and hiding his face: "Because of the iniquity of his unjust gain I was angry, I struck him; I hid my face and was angry" (v. 17).
But they did not respond with repentance. Rather, they kept backsliding. They resisted: "But he went on backsliding in the way of his own heart" (v. 17). So grace can be resisted. In fact, Stephen said…

We can try and find happiness on the outside, we can buy nice things, we can surround ourselves with wonderful people. We can work out every day to get the best body and spend fortunes on lotions and potions to make us look pretty.
None of this matters if our thoughts on the inside are critical. If we don't like who we are. A thousand people can tell us we're beautiful and brilliant and for a while it feels good but it's like putting a plaster over a shark bite. Eventually our own thoughts will creep in and undo it all.
We're born needing love and kindness, if an infant isn't shown any it won't develop, it will grow up mentally damaged. We're also not born thinking negative things, our concept of self is developed over time and consists a lot of what we're told by other people.
So here we are all grown up yet we still carry round both our insecure child and our critical parent. Chances are your inner voice is critical, harsh, always giving yourself a hard time. You know what else you have inside you though? A nurturing side. The side of you that speaks kindly to friends, your children or family when they need you.
You have the ability to use that kindness on yourself. To speak kind words when you look in the mirror. To give yourself credit for the things you are doing good.
Think about when you are learning something new and you're getting stuck. Which would be more helpful, someone coming over and yelling at you, telling you you're useless, pointing out everything you are doing wrong? Or someone coming over and speaking kindly to you, pointing out what you're doing right already and how you can build on that. When spoken to in that way, we thrive, we want to improve because we know we can, we step forward with confidence and a big smile on our faces, knowing if we fall we can just get back up again.
Kindness is the way to happiness. As adults we have choices that we didn't have as a kid, we can choose to have Ice-cream for breakfast, choose to stay up as late as we want, choose to pop to the shops in our jammas (to buy more Ice-cream). We can also choose what we think, imagine that! Our thoughts are in our control, when we look in the mirror it is our choice to speak words of kindness to ourselves or give ourselves a hard time. Our choice.
Yet it can feel weird to say nice things to ourselves, another voice pops in going "That's a load of rubbish you're worthless" "Stop being so conceited" This is because we've programmed our brains to think the negative automatically. We might not have been bought up to praise ourselves, to love ourselves.
Today though, TODAY, you can undo that. You can rewire your brain, you can choose to be kind yourself. Those negative critical thoughts are still gonna creep back in, and your first reaction might be to get cross with yourself, frustrated that it's not working. Well all that does is put you back in a negative cycle again.
It's gonna take baby steps, learning to love yourself, learning to be kind to yourself. Start off small, find a teeny thing to love when you look in the mirror. Praise yourself for the smallest thing when you go to bed at night. Like everything in life, thoughts grow when we feed them. So the more you look at the positive, the more you focus on the good about yourself, the more this will grow.
Be your own kind friend, your own patient teacher, your own nurturing parent. Inner kindness is the key to happiness and it really is in your control.

The Girl Is in Trouble
A man named August (Colombus Short) finds his life in danger after discovering evidence of murder during a one night stand, and realizing that the victim is a notorious drug dealer and brother to one of the city's biggest drug enforcers. Lured into the bedroom by the gorgeous Signe, August is terrified when he picks up her phone and stumbles across footage of dealer Jesus Guzman being brutally murdered. To make matters worse, the killer is none other than the son of an influential New York investment banker. Just then, Jesus' brother Angel shows up. He's looking for his brother, and he'll kill anyone who gets in his way, or tries prevent him from uncovering the truth. Now convinced that Signe has set him up, August must decide quickly whether the truth is more valuable than getting out of this mess alive. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Season 5 finds medical misanthrope Greg House more irascible than ever. As the season opens, House's best (well, only) friend James Wilson returns to Princeton-Plainsboro after three months of grief leave following his fiancée Amber's death, only to announce he's leaving. The reason, Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) claims initially, is that everything reminds him of Amber. But that's not good enough for House (Hugh Laurie), who neglects his duties to get to the bottom of it. After enduring some of House's trademark harassment, Wilson confesses Amber isn't the reason he's leaving -- House is. Their "bromance" isn't dead though, especially after a wild road trip the two take to the funeral of House's father. Meanwhile, love blossoms among the staff, with relationships developing between Cameron and Chase (Jennifer Morrison, Jesse Spencer), Thirteen and Foreman (Olivia Wilde, Omar Epps), and possibly even House and new adoptive mom Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein), who share a few tender moments between bickering sessions. The season takes a darker turn toward its conclusion, as the good doctors face an inexplicable tragedy that deeply affects them all, but House in particular, who also turns to stronger medication to control his pain. ~ Dianne Zoccola, Rovi

During his fourth season, the dyspeptic medical detective (Hugh Laurie) is consumed by his search for a new team of associates to replace Foreman and Cameron (Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison), who quit on him, and Chase (Jesse Spencer), whom he fired. The winnowing process begins with an unmanageable 40 applicants, so House gives them numbers and behaves like Simon Cowell, MD: firing people arbitrarily (by where they are sitting, at one point) and ordering others to wash his car. Eventually, he narrows the field to Jeffrey Cole (Edi Gathegi), Amber Volakis (Anne Dudek), Chris Taub (Peter Jacobson), Lawrence Kutner (Kal Penn) and "Thirteen" (Olivia Wilde). He also hires a CIA doctor (Michael Michele) who doesn't want the job---only to fire her when she reconsiders. House dismisses Cole and Volakis (also known as "cutthroat bitch") as well, but she doesn't go away. Instead, she starts a relationship with Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard). Meanwhile, House's sexually tense love-hate relationship with Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) intensifies, and Foreman, Cameron and Chase all return to Princeton/Plainsboro, although only Foreman returns to House's team. And through it all, House continues to perform his unique brand of medicine. In one episode, he diagnoses a psychiatrist (Mira Sorvino) who is stranded in an Antarctic research station via Webcam. And in another he kidnaps an unbelieving soap star (Jason Lewis) after noticing disturbing symptoms while watching him on television. ~ Paul Droesch, Rovi

Although he has recovered from the gunshot wound administered by the husband of a former patient at the end of House's second season, Season Three finds the unabashedly misanthropic Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) still suffering from a plethora of emotional wounds, wracked with self-doubt about his efficiency as a nephrologist specializing in unusual medical cases, and asking himself if he should actually start treating (and regarding) his patients as human beings. This self-reflection doesn't last long, and soon House is his old obnoxious self, the holy terror of Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital. Nor does he let up on the overuse of prescription drugs like Vicodin and Ketamine to ease the agony of his leg pain (an experimental treatment to alleviate the pain this season only makes matters worse). In fact, one of the year's most omnipresent--and ominous--storylines involves a detective named Michael Tritter (David Morse), who enters the clinic as a patient and ends up as Inspector Javert to House's Jean Valjean, dogging the doctor's trail and persecuting his colleagues in hopes of ultimately throwing House in the slammer for drug abuse and falsifying perscriptions. In other major Season Three developments, a romance blossoms between House's longtime associates Dr. Robert Chase (Jesse Spencer) and Dr. Allison Cameron (Jennifer Morrison). And after a medical misjudgment which totally shatters his self-confidence, Princeton-Plainsboro's ace neurologist Eric Foreman (Omar Epps) abruptly resigns. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Season Two of House begins as the gloriously obnoxious and abrasive Dr. Gregory House, head nephrologist at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, stubbornly (and somewhat perversely) trying to save the life of a seriously ill death-row inmate over the objections of his colleagues. Perhaps House is being more contrary than usual because he doesn't like being forced to work in close quarters with his ex-girlfriend Stacy (Sela Ward). Elsewhere, House's colleague Dr. Allison Cameron (Jennifer Morrison) is herself faced with a life-or-death crisis when evidence indicates that she is HIV-positive; House's superior-in-name-only Dr. Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) clashes with him over the treatment of a man who suffered an injury while working on Cuddy's roof; neurologist Eric Foreman (Omar Epps) briefly becomes House's boss, with both men pushing the envelope to see which one will go ballistic first; and after separating from his wife, oncologist James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) moves in with House--who despite his anger over having to share his space with anyone is reluctant to let Wilson leave because the guy is such a great cook! And in the two-part episode "Euphoria", House races against time to determine the malady that is causing a wounded policeman to literally laugh himself to death--things getting uncomfortably personal when Foreman begins showing the same symptions! The second ends when House is shot and wounded by the husband of a former patient--and those fans aware of the series' many references to Sherlock Holmes will get a kick out of the name of the assailant. Among the honors bestowed upon House during its second season on the air was the prestigious Peabody Award for "Best of Electronic Media." ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The misanthropic title character of the Fox hospital series House growls, grunts, glowers, winces and limps his way through a variety of curious and bizarre medical cases during the series' first season on the air. For starters, Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) must determine if a schoolteacher is suffering from a fatal tumor that is somehow causing her to speak fluent gibberish. Other patients suffer from hallucinations, the consequences of rough sex, and a apparent case of stigmata. Through it all, House maintains his nasty, abrasive façade, breaking as many rules as humanly possible to get the right results and save the lives of his charges--even those who flat-out don't want to be saved. Among the season's high points is a wager made by Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital's dean Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) that House can keep away from his precious Vicodin for a week, which results in unexpected side effects that may adversely affect House's patient. Then there's the story arc involving billionaire Edward Vogler (Chi McBride), who wants to purchase Princeton-Plainsboro and fire House as an economy measure--and, failing that, force the reluctant House to dismiss at least one member of his loyal medical team. Finally, House endures a visit from his ex-girlfriend Stacy Warner (Sela Ward), whose husband may be dying and whose lingering presence will vex our "hero" throughout most of the next season. House closed out its successful first season by garnering an Emmy award for series writer-producer David Shore, honoring his teleplay for the episode "Three Stories". ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

In this comedy from director Boaz Yakin (Remember the Titans), Brittany Murphy stars as Molly Gunn, the daughter of a dead rock star, who lives off her inheritance and has never worked a day in her life. When her father's estate is swindled away from her, Molly suddenly finds her life of luxury and excess pulled out from under her. Begrudgingly, she decides that she has to get a job and is hired as a nanny for Ray Schliene (Dakota Fanning), the daughter of record executive Roma Schliene (Heather Locklear). At first Molly can't shake her spoiled-brat personality, but eventually she and Ray discover that they have a lot in common and a strong bond is formed. Jesse Spencer plays Molly's boyfriend, and Donald Faison, who previously worked with Murphy in Clueless, plays another record executive who offers Molly a place to live until she gets on her feet. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

One of the most popular adventure stories of all time gets an exciting new screen adaptation in this made-for-TV movie, based on Johann David Wyss' The Swiss Family Robinson. When Mr. and Mrs. Robinson (Liam Cunningham and Brana Bajic) decide to leave their home in Switzerland and start a new life in the United States, they know they and their children will be setting out on the adventure of a lifetime. However, when their ship sinks in a violent storm at sea, the Robinsons are faced with challenges they never expected; they make their way to a small island and must learn how to survive with only their wits to guide them. In time, the Robinson family manages to not merely survive, but thrive in their new home. When a band of ruthless pirates lands on the island, they have to defend their home and themselves while pondering if this could be their last opportunity to return to civilization. Stranded also stars Jesse Spencer, Bonnie Wright, Emma Pierson, Charlie Lucas, Andrew Lee Potts, and Neil Newbon as the Robinson children. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Filmed in London and Wales, this two-part adaptation of the oft-dramatized R.D. Blackmore novel Lorna Doone was praised for its realism, though one or two nitpickers pointed out that the costumes were not all "in period" for 17th century Scotland. This time around, Amelia Warner starred as the titular Lorna, whose romance with young John Ridd (Richard Coyle) was imperiled by the bloody, long-standing feud between the Doones and the Ridds. The show was stolen by Martin Clunes in the flashy role of the redoubtable Jeremy Stickles. Lorna Doone aired over BBC1 on December 24 and 26, 2000. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The next release from the Stones Archive is about to be released. https://twitter.com/#!/RollingStones/status/157219243480457216 Clearmountain mixed.
Does Clearmountain still dump that ****** '80s echo all over the drums? That's the main reason I dumped the Springsteen live box set. Made sense on the '84 stadium stuff but the '78 club material? No.
That was mixed in 1986. I thought the stuff he did with the 'official' Brussels release an the Some Girls DVD was good. Not the best ever, but nothing about it bothered me or sounded unnatural, either.
Hopefully it will be something a little more obscure rather than a remix of a common bootleg. Not that I mind, but I'm sure there's great shows no one's ever heard outside of audience recordings. I really hope this series goes on and becomes a Dick's Picks type thing. I'd love to hear some 60's stuff and some of the full 1995 'Stripped' shows, for starters.
I`m with you.I would prefer a cd over a download.As for my favorite period of Stones music,it`s the Brian Jones years.
download at 6 bucks? I am in download at 10+ bucks? I will be picky Curious to see what they will release....I am hoping for the full show from Leeds...
I wish that they would start making FLAC files available here in the States. I've been holding off on Brussels thus far with the hopes that this might change, though I'm beginning to lose hope. If they're not going to do a physical release, at least use the best quality audio file.
I believe that it will be officially available in FLAC in the US, in time, once the exclusivity with google music is ended.
I don't get this type of thinking? We get a live show in good quality and when I'm playing it, I can't tell if it's a CD or a download. Well it's 2012 and it seems a direction with artist that is becoming more popular.
Yeah, I'd always prefer a physical release myself, but if this is the only way it's available, I won't turn my nose up at it. Maybe online distribution is just the most cost effective way to make all of these live performances available. I think that some of the traditionalists are being needlessly stubborn here.
Geez, are we going to have have 20 more pages of "download only" vs "physical media" again like last time?
I'm waiting for FLAC, also. I wonder how long the exclusivity contract with Google will last. No matter. I have plenty of other stuff to listen to in the meantime. And, no, I'm not going to buy the MP3 now and the FLAC later. The MP3 may only be 5 bucks, but it's 5 bucks I can spend somewhere else.
Has everyone received the email about "Rolling Stones skis" yet? I think I'll stick with the music, thanks...
I too would rather have the Physical release ...... Flac i misght bite , but i'm just not buying mp3's .
Like some others I'm interested in a vinyl or CD release only. Another Blu-ray early concert release would be good.
I know...yawn. How about the fact the Stones are finally opening the vaults? I wouldn't mind the 71 Leeds show, the unofficial disc is pretty good, but the sound could be cleaned up.
They announced that they are releasing another Bob Clearmountain-mixed live "bootleg" set from the vaults soon, but they didn't say what show it was they were releasing.

Did you know household fires cause almost 4,000 deaths and 25,000 injuries each year? According to the National Fire Protection Association, home fires are the biggest disaster threat to families in this country, above floods and hurricanes. Many residential fire-related deaths remain preventable, so in honor ofNational Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 6 -12, the Georgia Emergency Management Agency is encouraging residents to take simple steps to lessen the risk of fire.
GEMA offers these tips from itsReady Georgia campaign:
- Install smoke alarms. Properly working smoke alarms decrease your chances of dying in a fire by half.
- Place smoke alarms on every level of your residence. Place them outside bedrooms on the ceiling or high on the wall (4 to 12 inches from ceiling), at the top of open stairways, or at the bottom of enclosed stairs and near (but not in) the kitchen.
- Test and clean smoke alarms once a month and replace batteries at least once a year when you change your clocks back to Standard Time each fall. Replace smoke alarms once every 10 years.
Make a Plan
- Review escape routes with your family. Practice escaping from each room.
- Make sure windows are not nailed or painted shut. Make sure security gratings on windows have a fire safety opening feature so they can be easily opened from the inside.
- Consider escape ladders if your residence has more than one level, and ensure that burglar bars and other antitheft mechanisms that block outside window entry are easily opened from the inside.
- Teach family members to stay low to the floor when escaping from a fire.
Stay Informed
- To escape a fire, you should check closed doors for heat before you open them.
- If you are escaping through a closed door, use the back of your hand to feel the top of the door, the doorknob, and the crack between the door and door frame before you open it.
- Never use the palm of your hand or fingers to test for heat - burning those areas could impair your ability to escape a fire (i.e., ladders and crawling).
- Hot Door. Do not open. Escape through a window. If you cannot escape, hang a white or light-colored sheet outside the window, alerting fire fighters to your presence.
- Cool Door. Open slowly and ensure fire and/or smoke is not blocking your escape route. If your escape route is blocked, shut the door immediately and use an alternate escape route, such as a window. If clear, leave immediately through the door and close it behind you. Be prepared to crawl. Smoke and heat rise. The air is clearer and cooler near the floor.
If you are a victim of a fire, make sure you follow these guidelines to minimize injury and damage:
- If you are with burn victims, or are a burn victim yourself, call 9-1-1; cool and cover burns to reduce chance of further injury or infection.
- If you detect heat or smoke when entering a damaged building, evacuate immediately.
- If you have a safe or strong box, do not try to open it. It can hold intense heat for several hours. If the door is opened before the box has cooled, the contents could burst into flames.
- If you must leave your home because a building inspector says the building is unsafe, ask someone you trust to watch the property during your absence.

Solution Provider Unveils Eight Must-Haves When Implementing Disaster Recovery as a Service
NEW YORK, Oct. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's online, always-on economy, if a company's IT systems are down, the enterprise is offline – but its competitors aren't. Logicalis US, an international IT solutions and managed services provider (www.us.logicalis.com), stresses the importance of a solid disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity (BC) plan, and has created an informative – and easy to read – white paper to help businesses sort through the maze of DR/BC options.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130828/MM71035LOGO-a )
(Download "Advanced Technologies Make Thinking about Disaster Recovery a Lot Less Scary: Why You Should Reevaluate Your DR Strategy Today" here: http://www.ict-log.us/pdPGR.)
"As we're fond of saying at Logicalis, hope is not a strategy," says David Kinlaw, Practice Manager, Protection Services, for Logicalis US. "Too many IT pros go home every night hoping that their organization won't experience a disaster that will leave them scrambling to get their IT systems back online in a hurry. The fact is, disaster recovery and business continuity solutions require both a strategy and a financial commitment because not thinking about a disaster won't stop it from happening. Today, with the myriad of technological solutions available, there is a combination of virtualization, replication, co-location, data-center-as-a-service, DRaaS, or cloud-to-cloud technologies that will suit nearly every enterprise organization, making a data protection strategy not only prudent, but a no brainer. It's no longer a question of whether or not to implement a DR solution, but what form that solution should take."
Tape backup has traditionally been a solid option for disaster recovery – in fact, according to analyst reports, approximately 75 percent of the world's data is still protected by copying it to magnetic tape and shipping it off to some secure offsite location for storage. But in terms of the time and effort it takes to retrieve data – the recovery point objective (RPO) – and reunite it with the systems that are required to do anything with it – the recovery time objective (RTO), tape may be cost effective, but it may not be the most efficient option available. By the time data is restored from tapes, that data may be hours, days or weeks old, something that is acceptable in some business scenarios, but a death sentence in others.
When continuous uptime is the most critical decision-making factor, the cloud provides a variety of DR options, ranging from do-it-yourself DR in the cloud to DR-as-a-Service and cloud-to-cloud DR options, each requiring numerous decision points all based on the business' specific RPO/RTO needs. No matter which cloud option a business considers, there are a host of critical "must-haves" that no DRaaS solution should be without.

Oh my gosh, I just can't believe that it's December already, or that the last time I posted was in August – at the beginning of this semester! How is that even possible??
Well, anyways… hello again! I do hope you all are doing quite well. I've been… well I've been up and down. It seems my life is full of lots of these moments.
It's amazing to me how much has occurred in the last few months… I started this semester with an overwhelming workload, and unfortunately I didn't see the signs until it was too late that I had bitten off far more than I could chew. Which led to my having to withdraw from my chem class. Note to self: the next time you get a hair-brained idea to take a college chem class to fulfill both your physical science and lab requirements, don't. College chem is not the same as high school chem, and even if you liked it in high school it doesn't mean you'll enjoy it in college!

As instrumental groups gain steam in the metal world, Boston-based 5ive (also known as 5ive's Continuum Research Project) are definitely not among the leaders of the pack in terms of popularity. However, they do add something interesting to the mix. Their brand of atmospheric rock/metal fits in with acts like Pelican and Explosions in the Sky, but I hesitate to use the term post-metal, as I got a severe lashing last time I did so, and said lashers may have had a point about the strangeness of the term. As such, I must say that atmospheric instrumental band 5ive is on the verge of joining the atmospheric metal in-crowd with their newest release. Almost.
The nature of 5ive and third full-length album Hesperus, is more than a little polarizing. Some will say it's simply mesmerizing while some will say it's a snooze-fest. The difference, friends, is an attention span. Lacking an attention span (as many metal fans do) is nothing to be ashamed of. All it means is that 5ive might not be for you. That said, Hesperus has some surprisingly catchy segments that, for this reviewer at least, almost make the album worth a purchase. Unfortunately for the duo of guitarist (that includes bass) Ben Carr and drummer Charlie Harrold, they seem to have been unable to come up with enough catchy segments to elevate the album to the level of their contemporaries.
Despite offering a seemingly low seven songs, Hesperus clocks in at a healthy 45 minutes, which would feel about right, save for the album's Achilles' heel: its repetitiveness. "Gulls" begins the album with spacy, cold feedback and discordant guitar that buzzes with only a fraction of the distortion yet to come. Military-like drums come out of nowhere along with a rumbling, heavily distorted guitar that occasionally flits in higher, melodious tones. The remainder of the song alternates these elements in a somewhat cyclical, but interesting listen. The low-end guitars rumble like a gentle earthquake, while the drums propel the song forward with gusto. Second track "Big Sea" is perhaps the most rocking tune here. Complex and innovative drumming along with a constant stream of distortion-laden grooves vacillate with echoey, spacy melodic interludes, making this an undeniably groovy listen. "Kettle Cove" is short, but perhaps the most energetic track on the album. It makes enviable use of a wah pedal amid more frantic picking, creating a rollicking start/stop tempo. The "chorus" includes more spacy high notes that are bent to the border between funky and metal. Sadly, the track is a mere three minutes. The remainder of the album drifts into drony repetitiveness, with "News I" acting as the apex of mediocrity on the album.
This album could have been much more had 5ive expanded on the intermittently inventive songwriting. I do appreciate this increasingly popular genre of instrumental atmospheric metal, but it's as if the band gave up halfway through each song with the thought that doubling up on the cool passages they did write could carry them through the remainder of the album. Hesperus is okay, with several moments of clarity that would rope in many listeners, but the sheer repetitiveness of it all will likely turn most off to this release.

Recording Internet audio streams
FM no longer has the biggest selection of radio stations. Instead, you need an Internet connection. But how can you save a copy of your favorite web broadcast?
The Internet has given birth to a new generation of "radio hams" who employ webcasting or streaming to deliver programming to Internet listeners using a variety of protocols. The innumerable radio stations at Shoutcast.com use the MP3 format for webcasting, whereas traditional radio stations tend to use the RTSP or PNM protocol, as spoken by RealPlayer, or the MMS protocol, as spoken by MPlayer. Unfortunately, recording the data from an incoming audio stream involves some extra work. Stream Me Up! Radio stations that use the MP3 format are the easiest to record. Streamripper [1] supports recording of MP3 streams, such as those found at Shoutcast.com or Icecast.org. The Streamtuner [2] GUI supports simultaneous recording and playing and gives users some convenient management features (Figure 1). Both programs can typically be installed using the package management tools provided by the major distributions. Fedora users may need to install the xmms-mp3 package [3]. Note that both Fedora Core 3 and Suse 9.3 no longer have the MP3 codec on board by default.
