The Beau Brummels
Share This
While they only had two big hits,
the Beau Brummels
were one of the most important and underrated American groups of the 1960s. They were the first U.S. unit of any sort to successfully respond to the British Invasion. They were arguably the first folk-rock group, even predating
the Byrds
, and also anticipated some key elements of the San Francisco psychedelic sound with their soaring harmonies and exuberant melodies. Before they finally reached the end of the string, they were also among the first bands to record country-rock in the late '60s.
The key axis of the band was formed by guitarist/songwriter
Ron Elliott
, who penned most of the Brummels' moody and melodious material, and singer
Sal Valentino
, owner of one of the finest voices in mid-'60s rock. Spotted by local DJ
Tom Donahue
in a club in San Mateo (just south of San Francisco), the group was signed to Donahue's small San Francisco-based label, Autumn Records, in 1964. With
Sly Stewart
(later Sly Stone) in the producer's chair, they made the Top 20 right off the bat with "Laugh, Laugh." The melancholy, minor-key original sounded so much like the British bands inundating the airwaves that many listeners initially mistook the Brummels for an English act. The follow-up single, "Just a Little," was another excellent, melancholy number that became their biggest hit, making the Top Ten.
The Beau Brummels
made a couple of fine albums in 1965, dominated by strong original material and featuring the band's ringing guitars and multi-part, mournful harmonies. The best of their early work is nearly as fine as
the Byrds
' first recordings, yet the band was losing ground commercially, partially because Autumn, being such a small label, lacked promotional muscle. "You Tell Me Why" was their only other Top 40 hit, though "Sad Little Girl" and
the Byrds
knock-off "Don't Talk to Strangers" were excellent singles. The band also shuffled personnel a few times, and
Ron Elliott
was unable to stay on the road because of diabetes. Autumn was sold in 1966 to Warners, who made the lunkheaded move of forcing the band to record an entire album of Top 40 covers -- ignoring the fact that original material was one of the Brummels' primary fortes.
Regrouping as a trio, the group recorded a critically acclaimed, more experimental album in 1967,
. Their last Warners LP,
Bradley's Barn
, found the group branching into country-rock, a year or so before it became trendy.
The Beau Brummels
did re-form for an unimpressive reunion album in 1975, and although
Ron Elliott
Sal Valentino
continued to make music and work on various low-profile projects of their own, they've never made records on par with the Brummels' vintage work.

News: Glen Burnie, Md., Marine reaffirms oath in Afghanistan
Story by Cpl. Paul Peterson
CAMP DWYER, Afghanistan - It's been nearly three weeks of intense, round-the-clock construction efforts for the Marines here.
Buffeted by regular sand storms and intense heat, a platoon of engineers with Engineer Company, Combat Logistics Regiment 2, Regional Command (Southwest), reassembled after a twelve-hour shift to acknowledge the commitment of one of their own.
First Lt. Ryan McGrail, a Glen Burnie, Md., native and platoon commander with the company, stood before his sand-covered Marines and once more recited his oath of office during his promotion ceremony Aug. 13.
McGrail attended Officer Candidate School, and he accepted his commission as a Marine Corps officer on Aug. 13, 2011. His military schools include Sapper Leaders Course and the Basic School for officers.
He recently deployed with CLR-2 in July to support combat logistics operations in Helmand province, Afghanistan.

by Robert Cormier
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This opens up an interesting world of thought. First I was sad that there are people like Lori who only want someone to love them and will do just about anything to have that affection. Also crazy that there are people like Eric that have no empathy or feelings - a true sociopath is how I see him. And then there is the irony of how justice worked on him. Very strange book, but still intriguing.
Disturbing. Tenderness is the story of two emotionally stilted young adults: Lori, a fifteen-year-old runaway with an unhealthy fixation with finding what she calls "tenderness" and Eric, an eighteen-year-old who has just been released from a "facility" he was in for three years for murdering his mother and stepfather. Lori, whose body matured far faster than her emotions, has left home temporarily because her mother's most recent live-in boyfriend has gotten a little too close for comfort. Not Lori's comfort--she doesn't really mind, as she finds his touch "tender", but she is worried that it will upset her mother if she finds out. She leaves home to find her current obsession, Throb, a music idol who will be playing a concert in a nearby town. When a surprise kiss from Throb turns out to be a disappointment, she finds a new object to fixate on: recently released Eric, who just so happens to be staying at his aunt's house in the same town. Lori recognizes Eric as a boy who had been nice to her once three years earlier, and decides she must see him again.
From Eric's point of view, we find that the murders he was convicted for were neither his first nor his most meaningful victims. Eric is a serial killer, having started with small animals and graduating rather soon to human victims. He found "tenderness" with three girls before moving on to his mother and her husband. Even while still in the "facility" he begins to fixate on a girl he sees there, who he calls "the senorita". He plans to meet with her once he is released, and she indicates that she is more than willing to meet with him too.
Eric and Lori's paths soon intersect, and readers view their disturbing relationship through both participants' eyes. Lori admits her obsession, slowly comes to realize what Eric really is, and soon tells him that she loves him and would never betray him to anyone. Eric, for his part, does appear to feel something for Lori, though it is not at all a healthy, real concern for her as a person for in his mind he never refers to her as anything but "the girl". They spend time together, and readers are kept in constant suspense about what Eric will do next--just how safe can Lori possibly be with him? The ending is surprising, and leaves one contemplating the nature of true justice.
I don't know what it is about Robert Cormier, but I keep picking up his books even though I don't like his writing style. They're just growing on me. This one has a little too much cliche going on (the runaway who stalks the serial killer--maybe not a big cliche but it's not a surprise at all) and the ending, which is pretty much like all his other books with its messages of Life Isn't Fair and Cormier's Protagonists Never Win.
Not a bad read, a bit of creepy but not a whole lot, in part because there's not much mystery here: we know who these characters are and what their stories are, unlike I Am the Cheese.
Tenderness by Robert Cormier describes Lori and Eric who are both in search of their definition of the word. This thriller first introduces Lorelei "Lori" as a misunderstood 15 year old looking for emotional and sexual attention but in tender way. Frustrated with her mothers' alcoholic ways and latest relationship Lori runs away from her broken home and ends up in the back of a van driven by Eric Poole. This was the second time their paths have crossed. Eric was recently released after being was convicted of killing both his mother and stepfather as a juvenile. He finds tenderness in seducing and murdering young girls although those murders were never proven. Lori is naive and obsessed with Eric willing to do anything for his tender love in return. By the end of the novel her mission is accomplished but their emotionally journey comes to a surprising end. Young readers will be drawn to the suspense-creating tension that rises to a peak of excitement. Irony a theme in the book could lead to discussion of what was expected to happen but didn't. The narrative is told from the point of view of three different people which may confuse teens trying to follow along. Grade 9 and up.
As he has done so well in his other books, Cormier creates a complex protagonist who, because of Cormier's exemplary writing, you extraordinarily actually hope for for split seconds at a time, despite him being a murderer of innocent young girls. And even though you know that these characters are too sad and too broken to have happy endings, and even though one of them seems to be truly truly evil (though Cormier manages to create shades of gray even with this) you can't help but hope that somehow everything will turn out okay in the end anyway. The ending of this book was particularly powerful, and the foreshadowing was really well done.

Well I have a friend who is 1/2 white and 1/2 black and her DH is brown hair blue eyes and full white and their daughter has dirty blonde very curly hair, brown eyes, and light skin && she is adorable. I have another friend who is Blonde hair blue eyes full white and her BD is 1/2 black 1/2 white and their baby girl has wavy brown hair, blue eyes and very light skin, very cute lil girl also! Its really hard to know because you never know what genes the baby will pull from.

You are my sunshine
That sounds just like my DH and I. He is 1/2 black & white, I am white with blue eyes. :) You can see some pictures of our kids in my album. My middle child has very very light skin, and mostly straight hair with some waviness. The other two are darker (just look like really tan white people lol) and have curly hair. All of them have brown eyes, but my middle child's eyes are much lighter brown, more like a bronze color. THey are all super adorable though. :)

I have 2 cousins who are 3/4 white and 1/4 black and they are tan with medium brown hair and brown and hazel eyes. People would assume they are italian if anything. I think the children usualy look closer to white but sometimes they have a tan or brown eyes and curly hair but Ive definetly seen some kids come out blond with blue eyes and all...
this is Thandie Newton's daughter... the little blonde child..she is 1/4 black
and halle berry daughter who is also 1/4 black
It's a gamble. Somehow, both of my children look very similar although they have different fathers. I am 1/2 white and 1/2 black and the fathers of my children are white with dark hair and blue eyes. Both kids have brown eyes, brown hair and very fair skin. They do look more like me than anything, so I guess I just have strong genes.

Just posted this pic in another thread but my daughter is 1/4 black, 1/4 Spanish, 1/4 German, 1/4 Czech/Slovak...so essentially 1/4 Black.
She actually looks like me from the nose down, but has her dad's eyes and color, so people think she looks like him and I get called the nanny often :( She has the thinnest, slowest growing hair I've ever seen for a mixed kid!! It's curly/kinky in the back but just curly/wavy in the front. Her eyes are so interesting, they are what I would call grey, and change from bluish to green to gold depending on the lighting.
Here are her genes :)

I'm white. I have wavy and thick blonde hair and green eyes.
My husband is 1/2 black, 1/2 white. He is medium/dark skinned and has brown eyes and thick kinky black/brown hair. Our daughter has platinum blonde curly hair and blue eyes and is fair skinned but can tan pretty easily. You just never know. I was thinking we'd have a brunette, brown eyed child but we didn't! Could go either way just like any child. I kinda don't think I produce anything but blonde kids. My blonde gene is just a badass takin' names....but then again, she got a recessive blonde gene from my husband as well. Both of our mothers are blonde and blue eyed.
Our daughter Helena. She will be two in April.

10 Celebrities Who Take Their Young Kids to Restaurants (Photos)TheMommyologist
I think it's safe to say that most people don't want their lifestyles to change too much after having kids, although the shift is pretty much inevitable. I remember my husband and I saying that we were still going to travel the world, go on adventures, and eat at fancy restaurants weekly right before our son was born. After he arrived, of course, we realized that going out to eat meant going to "kid-friendly" places, and taking trips meant driving around for an hour or two in the hopes that our son would fall asleep!
Now that our son is five-years old, I'm proud to say that we can take him pretty much anywhere with us, and he is always on his best behavior. I would never bring him to a nice restaurant if I thought he could not behave accordingly. When he was an infant, however, I wouldn't have dared to bring him to an "adult" restaurant. I was too concerned that my baby would start to cry and ruin the night for other diners who were trying to enjoy their evening.
Celebrity parents, on the other hand, don't seem to be slowed down one bit by their kids. They are often seen traveling with very young children, and taking them out to eat at restaurants on a regular basis.
Just this week, Pink and Carey Hart brought their newborn daughter, Willow, to dinner at Madeo, which is definitely not a shabby place for a meal. I'm guessing that little Willow was asleep the entire time. I can't imagine that the other patrons of Madeo would appreciate trying to enjoy their meal with a screaming baby around.
What are your thoughts on the subject? Is taking young kids to nice restaurants appropriate or not?

Nice quiet park right on a lake. Over 50 sites but never saw more than 10 campsites occupied. The park just joined the KOA network and is currently converting to KOA. Formerly called Watersedge RV. Very friendly people. Has three pull throughs and there was always at least one available. Park has full hookups, 30 and 50 amps as well as a couple tent sites, boat, kayak rental, laundry and sleeper cabins. Watch out for moose. It is very, very common to see moose crossing the road right near the park every morning and evening. - globemaster

Because of the last posting on this site we chose to come here. We are very happy we did. Large sites, good big rig access, washing the coach and toad is okay, satellite friendly, good water and power. A true northwoods experience. The lake is very pretty and does not reflect its name - Mud Lake. General store in the area is well stocked as is the local farmer's stand. This is a great place to spend a few days or weeks. For families it seems fine with swimming in the lake being a favorite. We hope to return soon. - grids

Car accidents increase in rural Loomis
By: Joyia Emard, Loomis News Editor
Two injured in latest crash
Rural Loomis has seen an increase in traffic accidents recently said Nico Bonfilio, California Highway Patrol officer. Two accidents last week bring the count to four since May 14. The latest was a two-car accident on Auburn Folsom Road on Thursday, June 7, that sent two people to the hospital, Bonfilio said. The accident occurred at 4:40 p.m., on Auburn Folsom Road, at Miners Drive. Both injured drivers, who were the sole occupants in each vehicle, were transported to Sutter Roseville Medical Center complaining of pain. Bonfilio said Joyce Compton, 73, of Roseville, was driving a 2009 Subaru Forester northbound on Auburn Folsom Road and turned left into oncoming traffic and was struck by a 17-year-old girl from Roseville heading southbound. The girl was driving a 2007 Honda Accord. Bonfilio said both vehicles sustained major damage. The accident backed up traffic in both directions on Auburn Folsom Road. Another solo car accident occurred a day earlier at 6:05 p.m., June 6, on Horseshoe Bar Road, west of Val Verde Road. Bonfilio said a Mercedes Benz was traveling westbound when the driver left the road and hit a speed limit sign, causing major front-end damage to the vehicle. Bonfilio said Steven Schneider, 43, the driver, suffered superficial injuries and was booked into Placer County Jail on suspicion of driving under the influence. The accident occurred at a sharp curve on Horseshoe Bar Road in front of Tom and DiDi Zaverl?s home, which has been the site of numerous accidents over the years. ?We?re just really relieved there were no injuries to any other parties,? Bonfilio said. The other two accidents in May include a solo car rollover on Horseshoe Bar Road on May 14, near Leak Lane, that sent one passenger to the hospital. A pedestrian running on the shoulder narrowly avoided being hit when the driver lost control. The other accident was a rollover on Auburn Folsom Road near King Road that sent two people to the hospital. That accident was caused by a driver attempting to make a u-turn and pulling out in front of another vehicle.

First Id refer yiu to this article review by Daniel Mounsey: www.cloudynights.com/documents/planetaryeyepieces.pdf
My short advice: go with some televue plossls, regarded by many t o be the best planetary oculars on the market. For some eyepieces with a custom bent Siebert optics is well regarded. Dont be afraid to add a televue barlow. Mine are essentially invisible additives in terms of detrimental effects or artifacts.
I cannot encourage you enough to read Mounseys article.

For my 5" f/12 EQ refractor, 6 or 10mm ZOA II or 8 or 11mm TV Ploessl.
8" f/6 Dob, usually not EQ, 7mm Pentax XW
12.5" f/5, 10mm XW
Posted 16 March 2013 - 07:28 PM
I have a set of Baader Hyperions and the 13mm works well, but the TV plossels give better images. The Hyperions are good, but not as good. The Hyperion 21mm does not barlow as well as the ES and has a more difficult eye placement when barlowed. I recently looked thru a variant of the Thomas Back planetary 58 degree eyepeces. These are good designs and come close to the TV plossels. I would love to try a Pentax or Vixen LVW in the 10-14mm length, but I have not had the chance.

I'm looking at purchasing a high power EP for a CGEM 925 HD. Do you have any favorites you would recommend?
Jupiter will just sort of "float" there, somewhere in between you and the eyepiece. You will not believe your eyes!

BRANDON - When I first reviewed this eyepiece I was hard on it because I was hoping to get a bit more warmth out of the image for Jupiter. What I'm about to share with you may sound surprising but this occured at Charlton Flats where we conduct planetary observations. My friend Jorge and I were observing Saturn with his 8" TMB and his then new Badder binoviewer. We tested various eyepieces that night. The 12.5mm UO's, 15mm Parks Gold Series, 16mm Nagler T5's and a set of 16mm Brandons. To my amazement and Jorge's, we were actually shocked to see that the Nagler T5 16's clearly beat out both the UO and Parks GS. We could easily see less light scatter in the 16mm T5 Nagler's, then when we popped in the Brandons it was all over. The image was completely etched in tack sharp contrast and clearly out performed these other sets of eyepieces. Like I said before, I was hard on the Brandon's, but they are highly regarded eyepieces. Pons loaned me two complete sets in brass for testing. Images are completely white and neutral and are probably the finest eyepieces for solar wedges. If you've never seen sun spots in a solar wedge, trust me, you don't know what you're missing. Glass and mylar filters are not even close in comparison to a solar white light wedge! The Brandons are highly recommended and are stunning on the Moon.
Posted 16 March 2013 - 08:30 PM
XO 5.1. That puts an f/10 scope at about 0.5mm exit pupil, the highest I usually go for planet observation. IMO, the XO's are the best eyepieces for viewing planets, unless maybe you want to pay two or three times higher for a ZAO.
CGEM 925 HD = 92.5" FL = 2349.5mm FL
That would give him 460x....far too much power.
@ F/10, you have many choices over eyepieces needed correction wise for a fast scope, but I would still get a higher quality eyepiece for planets.

For planets, I use a binoviwer. That made more difference to me than any eyepeice choice ever has.
Because the C14 is such a big aperture, I often cannot exploit the highest powers the scope can use (you may not be able to either), but what I tend to use the most are 17mm Hyperions, 15mm Vixen NPL Plossls, and when seeing permits (rare) 13mm Hyperions. I would say the 15mm NPLs get the most use though, but only because that is about as high as I can usually go due to seeing (about 266x).
But the binoveiewers easily make more difference to me than the differece between this or that eyepeice did.
Hard to go wrong with Televue Plossls, but at the same time, you can find similarly well performing Plossls for less money.
I had the Televue 15mm and the Vixen NPLs seem to offer the same performance. In side by side comparison, there was no detail in Jupiter that I could see in the Televue that could not be seen in the Vixen NPL.
But if you want to planetary view, before you spend a lot of money on eyepeices, consider buying an inexpensive pair of binoviewers and some inexpensive 12mm Plossls and give that a try. (Don't forget that your telescope will give more magnification with a binoviewer than it will without).

Ships Passenger Lists to New Netherland, New York 1624 to 1664
Ships Passenger Lists to New Netherland - What Exists?Thanks goes to Howard Swain for many of the details below
All "passenger lists" for travel from The Netherlands to New Netherland 1654-1664 came from information on the debit side of the West India Company Account Book. They show who owed money when they arrived. This account book is found in New Netherland Colonial Mss, vol. 14, Book KK. The lists of Passengers to New Netherland in the Year Book of the Holland Society of New Netherland 1902:1-37 were taken from this Account Book FN 1, 2
Typical fare was 36 florins; half that for young children; and nothing for nursing infants. FN 1
These accounts were made from the records of the West India Company, by order of the English rulers after the confiscation of the Company's property in New Netherland, and as assets of or debts due the Company, and to be collected by the English. The list seems to stop with the Eendracht which arrived on 19 July 1664. The English took over in Sept 1664 so that may have been the last passenger ship to arrive before that date.

Yesterday I finished putting in the time to get Rank 1 of the "Furs and Scales" Study... I was thinking as a Skinner I would be able to upgrade older ranked furs and scales into the newer rank ones. However, I found I had no new recipes! I went to the Skinning trainer, and even the Novice Crafting trainer... no new skills.
Is the "Furs and Scales" Study currently broken? If so, when will it be fixed?
If not, what am I doing wrong?

i have this as well..and did in beta. it still didnt offer any new/additional recipes. my only thoughts are it needs to be rank3 or rank5 and then we may see the recipes coming up. while i was talking to evalynn ingame, i remembered that there was no way to work t6 furs/scales, so this could be needed at rank5 to have a way to work those resources. im sure even now we have 250 skinners and they probably dont see a way to work the 250 only skinning creatures. so was just me thinking outloud of a way to get that recipe,by this study.

The exciting music at this year's Bellevue Community College Jazz Band Festival made it obvious, yet again, that the Northwest is a breeding ground for top jazz talent, with the emphasis decidedly on "young."
Inclement weather, a flu bug and a Seattle band director's "tough love" made the competition at this year's Bellevue Community College Jazz Band Festival a bit unusual.
But the exciting music at BCC's Carlson Theatre made it obvious, yet again, that the Northwest is a breeding ground for top jazz talent, with the emphasis decidedly on "young."
Seattle's Eckstein Middle School, directed by Moc Escobedo, took the top prize in its category, with Eckstein's 14-year-old eighth-grade trombonist Bonnie Henwood really sparking the day.
Henwood's solo on Duke Ellington's beautiful "Blue Cellophane," was amazing — flowing, creative, warm, articulate — and, above all, natural. How do these kids get so good so fast?
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Reed brother led detectives to bodies believed to be Arlington couple
- Your vote counts so little in Tuesday's primary election, John Oliver joked about it on 'Last Week Tonight'
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
Most Read Stories
"I grew up listening to jazz," said Henwood, who studies with the excellent Seattle trombonist Jeff Jay and won a soloist award Thursday (see list of winners on page C8). "I really like Steve Turre a lot." Turre is one of the finest trombonists in jazz.
Jazz runs in Henwood's family. She has two older siblings who played at Roosevelt High School, one of whom is now at the University of Washington.
The middle-school runners up were Timbercrest Junior High (Woodinville) whose Gibraltar-solid drummer, Billy Cassidy, was a delight; and Kellogg Junior High (Shoreline) whose diminutive baritone saxophonist, Grace Oh, got a huge, gutsy sound out of that gigantic instrument.
But with all due respect, Eckstein's win was a bit of a shoo-in, because the school's perennial archrival, Seattle's Washington Middle School, for the first time did not compete.
"Let's just say they're in boot camp," explained Washington director Robert Knatt, who also said he will not bring the band to the Lionel Hampton International Jazz Festival competition, in Idaho, later this month. "You don't do something because somebody before you did those things. You have to earn the right."
By contrast, a new group from Oregon — Banks Junior High's first jazz band ever — fielded a talented, 13-year-old alto saxophonist, Josh Lenz, who said, thanks to his dad's record collection, he'd been listening to Miles Davis and Duke Ellington since he was 4 years old.
That kind of continuity — from parent to child, master to apprentice, sibling to sibling — is what jazz is all about.
So it was a matter of some curiosity whether kids who sparkled a couple of years ago from Langley Middle School, on Whidbey Island, were still carrying the torch at South Whidbey High School.
Unfortunately, a rampant flu bug kept them home.
"I wish you could have heard them," lamented director Chris Harshman, who said most of the former Langley kids have, indeed, stuck with the music. "They're killin'."
Langley continues to produce good players, including vibraphonist Amy Anand, who won a soloist award, and drummer Darby Hayes, whose energy and time were excellent.
Another band laid low this year was Spokane's Mead, thanks to closures of Snoqualmie Pass.
The BCC festival expanded from two days to three this year, so Friday was vocal jazz day, with the winner being Longview's Mark Morris High School.
As always, Saturday's high-school band competition drew a packed house and hot debates about rivals Garfield and Roosevelt. The judges went for Roosevelt, whose Basie-like, in-the-pocket tempo on "Who Can I Turn To?" was perfectly controlled, as were Roosevelt's blend, dynamics and soloists on pretty much everything else. Garfield and Shorewood, from Shoreline, were the runners-up.
However, Garfield's usual bristling, punchy energy was balanced by great precision and dynamics, and the band's Zubin Hensler played a stunning fluegelhorn solo on Billy Strayhorn's "Daydream."
One student who sounded great as a middle schooler two years ago continued to shine: Roosevelt's trumpeter Corey Dansereau played a sweet 'n' sour hat-mute solo on Duke Ellington's "Blue Serge."
The Ellington connection has particular significance. Garfield, Roosevelt and Shorewood — among other local schools — have all submitted their tapes to the Essentially Ellington competition, in New York; the finalists are announced in about a month.
The Bellevue Festival is also a good clue as to who might win at Hampton. Only the judges can decide, but if Garfield won that round it would not be a shock.
And speaking of judges, one at BCC was international trumpet star Cuong Vu (see story on this page) a graduate of Bellevue High School now teaching at the University of the Washington.
The continuity and family spirit of Northwest jazz is clearly going to continue for some time to come.

Mail Tools for a Hostile Planet
Don't look now, but your mailbox is full of junk, and a snooper is live on a distant server, reading your opinions of your boss. Remember when email used to be easy? To restore some sanity to your correspondence, you'll need the right tools.
In the few short years since email spilled beyond the hacker culture, it has become nearly impossible to imagine life without it. The halls of academia, business, and government all operate on email. And the supreme simplicity of sending an email message has led to a proliferation of mail. Thirty years ago, you might have gotten five typewritten memos per day; today you could be getting 50 in email – that's 250 in a working week – and this is only the messages from people you know. If you add all the spam that is addressed to you from spam dens hidden everywhere on the Earth, you'll see why many email users are desperately wondering how such a promising technology could lead to such tedium. The biggest questions questions facing today's email user are: • How do you filter out the email you don't want? • How do you organize the mail you do want? • How do you secure your email messages? These questions form the backdrop for this month's Email cover story. We'll provide you with detailed, practical information on managing your mail. You'll learn how to create a spam-free and secure email environment in Linux without spending a lot of money on software.

This Rotten Week: Predicting Getaway, Closed Circuit And One Direction Reviews
By Doug Norrie 2013-08-25 04:55:00 comments
Closed Circuit
I wonder how this films production team reacted to the news over the last few months. The major themes of this movie are a high profile/ mysterious terrorist bombing and the idea of government spying on all of our comings and goings. So theyre putting together this movie and within a few months of this spring and summer we have the Boston Marathon bombing and Edward Snowden leaking the NSAs eavesdropping tendencies when Im calling my bros to discuss fantasy baseball trades. (Get out of my business government!) But in all seriousness, these kind of parallels (even if horrible and reprehensible) can make movies like this relevant in the face of inevitable mediocrity.
But short of the coincidental connections to a couple of high profile events, is there anything to get excited about in this movie? Government agency/ espionage/ thriller flicks are a dime a dozen and far too often rely on tired tropes like Big Brother getting up in our lives (even if it is true!) or choreographed twists and turns (the good guys really the bad guy!) causing the flick to fall flat. I can see that happening with this film. Its not that it looks bad, it just looks ordinary.
Director John Crowleys previous film work (Boy A-88%, Intermission-73%) has been well received, and hes a noted stage director. That being said, Im having trouble giving his latest a score in line with the rest of his resume. Judging by the late summer release date and retread themes I see this coming in around the middle.

A-Z Health Topics

Your body needs iodine, a mineral, to work properly. The thyroid gland, for example, uses iodine to make the thyroid hormone thyroxin. Most iodine is in the form of iodide. These terms are often used interchangeably.
Iodide helps to:
- Regulate metabolic rate
- Regulate growth and development
- Promotes bone and protein synthesis
Recommended Intake
|Age group
Recommended Dietary Allowance [RDA] or Adaquate Intake
Upper Limits [UL]
|0-6 months
|Not determinable
|7-12 months
|Not determinable
|1-3 years
|4-8 years
|9-13 years
|14-18 years
|19 years and older
|Pregnancy (18 or younger)
|Pregnancy (19-50 years)
|Lactation (18 or younger)
|Lactation (19-50 years)
Too Little Iodide
Iodine deficiency can cause a range of problems, including mental retardation, hypothyroidism, goiter , and other growth and developmental problems. Thyroid enlargement (goiter) is one of the early signs of iodine deficiency. Not getting enough iodine is especially harmful for the developing brain, such as during pregnancy and in infants. This is why the American Thyroid Association recommends that pregnant and breastfeeding women take a daily prenatal supplement that contains iodine.
Goiter is not as common as it once was in the US because of iodized salt however, iodide deficiency is a major public health issue in many regions around the world.
If eaten in large quantities, some foods, like raw turnips and rutabagas, have chemicals that can cause goiters and inhibit thyroid gland functions. These chemicals, called goitrogens, are destroyed when the foods are cooked, so problems are uncommon.
Too Much Iodide
The thyroid can also become enlarged if you have too much iodide in your diet, though this is rare in the US. This toxic goiter is caused by elevated concentrations of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). This is often seen in people who eat a lot of seaweed, which can add a significant amount of iodide to the diet. Iodide levels up to 1 milligram (more than six times the RDA) appear to be safe.
Health Implications
When the thyroid gland releases fewer hormones than the body needs, the result is hypothyroidism . Some of the symptoms include:
- Fatigue
- Coarse, brittle hair; hair loss
- Facial puffiness
- Dry skin
- Swollen hands or feet
- Cold intolerance
- Weight gain
- Achy feeling all over
- Depression and irritability
- Menstrual abnormalities or infertility
When more hormones are released than necessary, the result is hyperthyroidism . Some symptoms include:
- Heat intolerance
- Tremors
- Enlarged thyroid gland (goiter)
- Heart palpitations
- Increased sweating
- Nervousness, irritability
- Redness, swelling, and protrusion of the eyes
- Shortness of breath
- Increased number of bowel movements
- Irregular or no menstrual period
A low iodide intake can especially impact children, causing a condition called cretinism . If not treated, the condition can lead to intellectual disability and abnormal growth. Iodine supplements can help reverse some of the affects. People who have a low iodide intake may be at risk of getting thyroid cancer , although it is not known exactly what causes the disease.
Major Food Sources
Iodide is found naturally in food grown in or near coastal seas. Seafood is naturally high in iodide, as are plants grown near the sea. Molasses and iodized salt are also good sources. Most people get plenty of iodide from the iodized salt in their diets, since only ½ teaspoon of iodized salt provides enough iodide to reach an adult's RDA for the day. The sea salt found in health food stores is generally not a good source because iodide is lost during processing.
|Serving Size
Iodide content
|Table salt, iodized
|1 gram
|Cod, cooked
|3 ounces
|Potato, cooked, peeled
|1 medium
|Lima beans, cooked
|½ cup
|1 medium
Tips for Increasing Your Iodide Intake
In general, there is little need to increase your iodide intake. Most people in the US get plenty from their diets, much of this coming from iodized salt. But if you use sea salt (or another type of salt) that does not have iodide, you can get the mineral from seafood or other sources. This is also true if you are on a low-sodium diet. Talk to your doctor if you are concerned about how much iodide you are getting.

Kaitlyn writes: "Hey there! Prom season is slowly approaching and I need some help with shoes! I wear a size 10-11 and am 5'10''. My date is already shorter than me so heels are far out of the question for his (and my feet's) sake. I'm looking for a strappy sandal that is silver and if it's sparkly, you'd be my hero! I'm looking to spend around $50 dollars. Thank you so much for your help!!"
Hi Kaitlyn! Found of You here! I absolutely had to take on your request because I was in your exact same position about ten years ago for my prom. I am 5'10", wear a size 11 shoe, and my super cute date was about the same height. My dress was robin's egg blue with silver beading, so I wanted shoes just like you describe: absolutely flat, strappy, and silver. I ended up with nothing after months of searching and finally settled for some white satin dyeables, which I tried to have dyed silver, and they ended up sort of a dishwater purple-y color. I cried great big tears! Luckily, I have a magical Mommy. She somehow managed to find flat silver strappy shoes the day of my prom. The straps were made of scratchy, sparkly elastic that cut into the tops of my feet, but I was so happy. Anyway, back then, there wasn't internet shopping. Now there is, and you can order one of the selections below! Good luck, and please let us know how your shoe search turns out!
1 - Forever 21 Gladiator Sandals ($18)
2 - Touch Ups Ashley Flats ($41, on sale)

My lovely son is named Aidan, my parents didn't really like his name but oh well.They said his name was to "out there", like the rest of his siblings.I wonder if my parents even think before they say stuff about out there names.I mean my name is Salem, my sister's names are Luna,Ranelle and Mykelti, and my brother's are named Monroe,Sawyer,Jetsen and Bronx.All of my siblings names were unusual when we were born and still are.We all love our names,and we loved when our parents got strange looks from people about them.I think Aidan is a beautiful name for any child.

Benaroya Companies says it plans to appeal a decision by the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board to declare the now boarded-up Ballard...
Benaroya Companies says it plans to appeal a decision by the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board to declare the now boarded-up Ballard Denny's a landmark.
The board's decision Wednesday to designate the 1964 structure a landmark against the advice of its own staff surprised Benaroya Companies, which bought the one-acre parcel in 2006 for $12.5 million and planned to sell it to a condominium developer.
The landmark designation also drew spirited public response. On The Seattle Times' Web site Thursday, most readers posting comments were incredulous, saying the structure did not merit landmark status. A few praised the board, saying the building represented Ballard before condos took it over.
Opened as Manning's Cafeteria in 1964 and converted to a Denny's in 1983, the building at the corner of Northwest Market Street and 15th Avenue Northwest is recognized for its distinct upswept roofline.

But city staff members say the deteriorating structure lacks many of the original materials and finishes that defined its architectural character, a style that includes some features of what's known as Googie architecture.
Supporters of preserving the building said restoration was possible.
"Despite years of poor maintenance and bad alterations [such as the dropped ceiling], this building was and remains a solid piece of original, creative architecture," wrote architect Alan Hess, a critic for the San Jose Mercury News and author of a book on Googie-style buildings. "The essential architectural characteristics of this Mannings remain, and can be restored."
At Wednesday's hearing, some board members also remarked about ways to return the building to its original style.
In January, members of the 11-member board which includes architects, historians, a structural engineer and a real-estate manager — overwhelmingly supported the nomination of the building for landmark status, the first step in a long process of preserving old buildings.
But board staffers and Benaroya's attorney warned the board before Wednesday's designation vote that, under the city's preservation law, the board's decision must be based on the current physical appearance of the building — not on the possibility of restoration. "By voting to designate it, the board is allowing it to stay in its current condition," Louie Richmond, a spokesman for Benaroya Companies, said Thursday. "It can't be about emotion and about sentimentality. It has to be about the law. If you don't like the way the laws are drawn up, you need to change the laws."
Under the city's rules, once the board designates a landmark, the staff negotiates a "controls and incentives agreement" with the owner that stipulates what features must be preserved and whether the city can grant waivers to zoning or building codes to encourage preservation.
If the owner declines to participate, the staff submits an agreement for approval to the board, and the board files this agreement with the city hearing examiner.
According to city code, the hearing examiner cannot impose the agreement on the property owner if the effect would be "to prevent the owner from realizing a reasonable return" on the property.
John McCullough, the attorney representing Benaroya Companies, said it would not be difficult to show a hearing examiner that banning demolition would mean a financial loss for the owners.
Though preservationists and some community residents are celebrating Wednesday's decision, it's still possible Benaroya could prevail on appeal.
In the mid-1970s, as developers were demolishing several area historic theaters, the city proposed landmark status for the Music Hall at Seventh Avenue and Olive. The owners, the Clise family, fought the proposal, but the theater was declared a landmark in 1977, according to Historylink.org.
The family appealed to a hearing examiner and won.
The family's plans to redevelop the property prompted a successful effort to redesignate the Music Hall a landmark. Again the family appealed and won, with a hearing examiner saying landmark status should not preclude a property owner's right to make a profit. The theater was demolished in 1991.

Along with Ed O.G. & Da Bulldogs, both Ray Benzino and Guru's Gang Starr Foundation were true pioneers in Boston Hip Hop. Although the two never released music together, Benzino recently spoke to HipHopDX about the impact of Guru's (né Keith Elam) April death, and his legacy. "[Guru] is definitely one of the greatest to ever do it out of Boston. I've known Keith for a long time [along with] his family. It hit hard, because [of] his accomplishments, and what he's done in Hip Hop since day one. Him and [DJ] Premier changed the game when [Gang Starr] came out, as far as how their music [sounded]. It was the first time I can remember, that New York wholeheartedly accepted a Boston emcee. At that time, New York was on top as far as [lyrical content]." After acknowledging Guru's pioneer role for Beantown, Benzino added, "I think Keith epitomizes the words 'rapper' and 'emcee.' I think it's a major loss. But that's what great about music: music means that his legacy, his words will always live on."
Continuing, Ray particularly acknowledged Guru's role in bridging the gap between two genres. "I don't know about the last moments of his life, as far as [Guru's business and musical partner] Solar. I never met him or whatever, so I really can't pass judgement. But what I do know is that from day one, [Guru] has been instrumental as far as merging Jazz [and Hip Hop]. When Keith grabbed onto it and started doing those Jazzmatazz albums, it really kind of opened up new doors and new light, for artists as well as fans. I just think that he's one of the greatest to ever do it; he might be one of the most underrated. I just believe that his legacy will live on."
In the last year, video has surfaced online, featuring a curious interview with Benzino, conducted by none other than New Orleans emcee sensation Jay Electronica. Ray revealed that the footage is from his 2004 Arch Nemesis DVD, released in conjunction with the album of the same name. "I had met Jay Electronica when we [were still running] The Source. Dave [Mays] had introduced me to him. At that time, when were doing the whole Eminem [exposé], [Jay Electronica] was kind of agreeing with a lot of my views." Four years prior to his true burst onto the national Hip Hop scene, Benzino recalled being intrigued by Jay's qualities. "I was kind of blown away by his character. He was very smart, very disciplined and at that time, if I could compare him to anybody, it might be a Nas."
Benzino acknowledged that while the DVD was released in October of 2004, it did not reach the masses, due to the then-issues at hand. "We made the DVD. The DVD kind of got lost in the matrix, I guess. Nobody really [saw] it. It's only until now, where Jay Electronica is blowin', that people are lookin' at it [with interest]. I'm sure some people that still have that bad taste in their mouth about 'Zino, I think it might even change [their perceptions of me], considering that he really is a major voice on the underground circuit in blog sites and [online Hip Hop magazines]. I know it's kind of surprising to see these guys who have been kind of goin' against what I've been sayin' to see one of their own agree with me, but that's just life."
Six years later, Ray applauds the man who went from interviewer to an emcee/producer running in the same circles as Nas, Diddy and Reflection Eternal. "Big up to Jay Electronica. I haven't spoken to him [since those days]. I would hope that he would reach out, or that we could sit down again, but it was a great interview that we did," Ray said. He spoke to the merits of fans looking at the film for more than just seeing Jay however. "We touched on everything, from The Source magazine, to Eminem situation, to Paul Pierce, to the situation with the Ruff Ryders, and we basically talked about my whole career from Boston to up to 2003." To Ray, Arch Nemesis is essential to understanding an ofted muted viewpoint. "It's just history. It's my [Vh1] Behind The Music kind of thing, where I get to tell my side of the story."

The Missouri Tigers football program takes its name from a citizen brigade formed during the Civil War to protect the citizens of Columbia, Missouri Tigers from roving bands of plunderers. Missouri football takes this legacy seriously. One of only 39 teams in all college football to win more than 500 games, winning 12 conference championships, fielding 23 All-Americans and 11 members of the College Football Hall of Fame, the Tigers are one of most storied, yet underestimated, football programs in the country. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Missouri Tigers football tickets.
Missouri proved that they are an SEC West power last season, winning their 2nd straight division title. The Tigers come into 2015 with expectations of a 3rd straight division crown. Missouri will rely heavily on junior Maty Mauk who is now one of the most experiences quarterbacks in the SEC. Mauk will be surrounded by a senior cast, including running back Russell Hansbrough who could be the best back in the SEC West. The biggest question mark for the 2015 Missouri Tigers will be on the defensive line. Missouri has benefited from outstanding defensive line play over the last two seasons, but will have to rely on multiple underclassman in 2015. If they can fill in the holes, Missouri should be in the hunt for yet another SEC West title. Top games on the 2015 Missouri Tigers schedule are at home against South Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee.
Check out our Missouri Tigers Season Preview History page for previews of previous Tigers seasons.
The Missouri Tigers play their home games at Faurot Field, also known as Memorial Stadium or the Zou in Columbia, Missouri. The stadium can hold more than 70,000 spectators. Its most well recognized feature is the white "M" made of stones behind the endzones. Visiting schools have traditionally tried to change the letter to an "N" for Nebraska or a "K" for Kansas. A Mizzou Tigers home game this season will be an unforgettable experience. The Missouri Tigers home bench is on the Faurot Field sideline with sections AA-TT. Faurot Field parking information is covered in our Tigers event guide.
Kansas Jayhawks
The rivalry game between the Jayhawks and Tigers is known as the Border War, and thus it's played in Kansas City, which is carved in half at the Kansas and Missouri state line. Both of these schools and their fans can't stand losing against the other, and for a while they won't have the opportunity as Mizzou bolted for the SEC.
After 15 years in the Big 12 the Tigers made the move to the powerhouse SEC in 2012 and are already making noise. With close to 30-bowl game appearances and 15 conference titles the Missouri Tigers certainly have the pedigree to compete in the SEC. Ticketcity offers tickets to all college football bowl games and the SEC Championship Game.
Children under two years of age are allowed in the stadium without a ticket, but must sit on the lap of their parent during the game.
Gates open 1.5 hours prior to kickoff.
Most of the best places to eat are north of campus, including Shotgun Pete's BBQ. No trip to Columbia is complete without a bite at Shakespeare's Pizza.

It was designed to be the ideal trip for the love of the plane.
A round-trip itinerary from Seattle to Manila. Price was dirt cheap. The itinerary afforded not only the opportunity to gain a significant amount of Premier Qualifying Miles (PQMs) to retain Star Alliance elite status, but also to test out new aviation boundaries and come home replete with tales to share with friends, family and fanbases alike.
I am one of those crazy types: I like doing things for the story. I covet the opportunity to fly on insanely random, weird and novel routes, all the time. This trip could not have combined more chances to do that all in one place.
Therefore, I recruited one of my best friends, and fellow aviation fanatics, anetter username Chicawgo, to come along with me. As many of you know, he and I both live and reside in Chicago, IL.
The tickets were booked in early July for an itinerary departing on October 25, 2012. The outbound journey from Seattle to Manila would be flown on All Nippon Airways (ANA) via Tokyo Narita. Although expedia was displaying a 777-300 as the equipment type from Seattle to Tokyo, we knew that ANA was planning on going live with the 787-800 Dreamliner that very month. High risk, high reward.

Out of Patience
by Brian Meehl
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book, in a lot of ways, reminded me of the book "Holes". A small town by the name of Patience has a curse hanging over it. However, I think I liked this book more because of how humorous it was. If you think the book is quirky head over to the authors website for more quirky info.
Jake Waters lives in the town of Patience, Kansas. The place was settled by his great, great, great, great-grandfather. Once upon a time the town was properous until the founder married and his wife insisted they have an indoor bathroom like they had in London. To please her he put one in. The town preacher claimed it was the devils work and a gateway to Satan himself. This is where the trouble begins. When the town finds out they are going to be robbed they put all of their treasures in a trunk and have Mr. Water's bury it because they consider him the most honest person in town. He makes a map of its location. When the thieves come to town the blabber mouthed preacher sends them to Mr. Water's house. He is severely beaten for not giving up the information. The problem is he can no longer remember where the map is or the treasure. They tar and feather the preacher and as they run him out of town he curses the town and claims the town will die and it will fall on the heads of Mr. Water's ancestors. Fast forward to present day. Jake is a decendant of the founder. His father is a plumber and is trying to open The American Toilet Museum. It isn't bad enough that their town is made fun of because of the fertilizer plant. His stepmother blows out of town because Jakes father has purchased another item for his museum. It is the infamous Plunger of Destiny. This is the first plunger ever made and the one that created the curse. Jake never believed in the curse before, but now he isn't so sure.
I won't say anymore about the story. It has several twists and turns that made it a great read. I believe the cover alone will cause several of my reluctan readers to pick it up. After all if you saw the face of a kid on a book cover and above his head were gold framed pictures of an old outhouse, a plunger adn an old fashioned toilet wouldn't that entice you? It did me.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0385732996, Hardcover)Some folks have skeletons in their closets. The Waters have toilets. Jake's mortified by his dad's dream to open the American Toilet Museum. Toilets have caused enough turmoil in Patience, Kansas. Patience has been cursed for 129 years, since Jeremiah Waters installed the first flush toilet. The Dolphin Deluge Wash-Down Water Closet caused a stink, and since then Patience has been drying up like a cow pie in August. Jake wants out of Patience, especially when his dad gets a relic for his museum, triggering the curse's last promise: "The day the Plunger of Destiny returns to Patience, the final destruction begins!" Can Jake save Patience by discovering what happened when Jeremiah last sat on the Dolphin Deluge Wash-Down Water Closet?

Go for it, Seb!
