Jacksonville Daily Journal, June 21, 1906
Are Rounding Out Honorable Careers and Long, Useful Lives.
In the south part of Morgan county the name of Rimbey is one which is universally respected for it is borne by men who are good citizens and fill their places well in the community. Two patriarchs bear the name most honorably and are regarded by all who known them with respect for their gray hairs are indeed crowns of honor and glory and before many years the men who bear them will be walking the streets of New Jerusalem. For many years the writer has known them and having a little spare time in Murrayville recently he called on them and had a pleasant visit while he asked them the history of their lives. True, it reads somewhat like the annals of a quiet neighborhood, but they and thousands like them are the pillars and foundation of our government and the ones on whom the nation may rely under all circumstances no matter how trying. The first one called on was
Uncle Jacob
and he was found in his pleasant home busily engaged at some light duties, for he is a man who can't bear to be idle unless he is sick. In answer to numerous questions of the visitor the old gentleman gave substantially the following facts:
He was born in Maryland Sept. 15, 1825 so that he is now in the ranks of the octogenarians or men who have passed the 80th milestone in the journey of life. His early home was in a quiet village about forty miles from Baltimore where his father lived and carried on a small farm. The country all around there was historic and he was well informed regarding the great men of an early day. His grandmother was 99 years old when she died and his mother was past 80, and the former was among the early settlers of that part of the country. She was well acquainted with the widow Curtis who afterward became Mrs. Martha Washington and knew many of the heroes of the revolution who won fame immortal in the trying times of the country's history. Mr. Rimbey's father's name was Uriah, which is a family cognomen and valued by all the descendants. The family consisted of the parents and children Jacob, Uriah, Henry, Mary and Nancy, now Mrs. Rousey of Ft. Scott., Kans. When he was 8 years old his father moved to Montgomery county, Ohio, where they lived a while near Dayton, but getting tired of the Buckeye state he thought he would try the Hoosiers, so he took his family to a farm near Peru, on the Wabash river, but they didn't like it at all and staid but a few months when they went back to Ohio, but about that time glowing accounts of the western prairies came floating over the land and Mr. Rimbey heard them and decided to try his fortune in the Sucker state, and accordingly packed his belongings and started. Of the journey many recollections remain. The swollen streams, the muddy roads, the interminable swamps, the scanty settlements, the great forests, the wild animals, and a thousand other things were encountered enough to unnerve any but the sturdy pioneers of that day. All were surmounted and the family arrived in due time and were guided by Providence and their fellow men to "Greasy Prairie" near Zion church, about five miles southeast of Murrayville, where they arrived 67 years ago and in which vicinity the brothers have since lived until they gave up active farm life and removed to the town which is now honored by their presence.
The story of the early days is like that often heard and yet it never gros old. A log house sheltered them and the huge fire place afforded the only means for cooking and heating and in one day they used enough wood to run a Tod stove a week or two with more comfort. The upper story was called the loft and was reached by means of a ladder, and when there were children to be put to bed up there, as was the case sometimes when there was company, the parents went up first and the little ones were handed up afterward. Corn pone was the chief article of diet and it sometimes took long journeys to mill to get it ground and then a turn had to be waited for weary hours. Hominy was made too, with good corn hulled by lye and made on appetizing change. The cooking outfit consisted of the tea kettle, dinner pot, dutch oven, a skillet or two and possibly a second kettle, and with these primitive utensils a meal fit for the kings of those periods was prepared and it sometimes even happened that good old housewives who had so long cooked before a fireplace that it seemed second nature, were averse to the use of the wonderful "step stove" which was such an innovation and wonder. Company was always welcome and in a genuine manner, for hospitality in those times meant something real and tangible. The door was hung on wooden hinges and fastened with a wooden latch, which was raised by a string put through a gimlet home and hanging on the outside. When the string was pulled in or when the door was tied on the outside with any kind of a string or other fastening it was legally locked and the person who broke it open was a regular burglar and housebreaker and subject to the penalties of the law. When a family retired the string was pulled in and that was also a legal lock and if the man of the house was expecting company later on he would go to bed as usual, generally about dark, and leave the string hanging out so that the guest or guests could open the door without getting any one up. From that custom came the old time invitation, "If ever you come my way be sure you understand the latch string is always out."
And that homely style conveyed more genuine hospitality than is to be found in many an engraved and perfumed note. The house raising was a time of gathering and merry making always. The logs were hauled up to the proper place and many hands secured to help with the work and slowly the structure assumed shape and when done it was primitive, but in those plain tenements far more genuine happiness reigned than is to be found in many a Fifth avenue mansion.
It was to such a dwelling as this that Uriah Rimbey brought his family in 1839 and began the work of rearing them for lives of usefulness and good. There he taught them the sturdy lessons of integrity which have since been their guiding star and there they learned the habits of thrift and industry which have stood them so well ever since. Schools were few and poor and the most that could be learned was during a short time in the winter or fall months, for during the rest of the time it was not possible to pay a teacher and the services of the children were needed on the farm. The spelling school, the husking bee and a few other means of enjoyment were all they had to vary the monotony of the time, though sturdy good cheer prevailed and that was a great deal. The singing master was a character in those times and he was much in demand in many communities and the singing school was often a means for courting and more than one match has been made in that manner. The boys were trained to do all kinds of work and the girls had no easy time, but health was generally good and hardships were endured because better things were not known. There was lots of wide game to be had, deer, prairie chickens, wild turkeys, quail and squirrels were plentiful and helped out the family supplies not a little.
Sept. 15, 1848, Jacob Rimbey married Nancy Jane Bradley, and since that time the lives of the two have flowed peacefully together and they have worked for each other's interests always. Cares have been many and certainly no taint of race suicide can be found in the family of that couple, for they were the parents of fifteen children and they were careful to rear them well and provide properly for their welfare: The names of these children were: Mary Elizabeth-Grossman (deceased); George Wallace; Robert D. (the well known gentlemanly dairyman); Jacob F. (deceased); William Frank, of Hutchinson, Kan.; John Wesley, Canada; Benjamin Thomas, Canada; Harriet E. Rannells, of Murrayville; James Uriah, of Canada; Samuel N., of Canada; Rebecca Anna Blakeman; Laurenna J. Marshall, Canada; Bartholomew (deceased); Seth W., Murrayville; Albert (deceased).
There are also 48 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren in the family, so that the name of Rimbey is not likely soon to be wiped out.
Mr. Rimbey and his wife are faithful members of the Methodist Church and have done their best to rear their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord and they have well succeeded. He cultivated the farm until advancing years warned him that he must give up, so some fifteen years ago he moved to Murrayville, where he and his good wife are spending their last days in peace and quiet surrounded by loved ones ready to look after their wants. Their son, Albert Watson, is a member of the household and daughters and neighbors are always ready to lend a helping hand if wanted. Mr. Rimbey is somewhat deaf, but aside from that he holds his own wonderfully well and bids fair to live many years yet. His wife is quite strong for one of her years and gets around the house as nimbly asa many a lady far younger. She yet dislikes the idea of a hired girl, for it would be hard to find one who would suit her, as she is somewhat particular in her housekeeping and the faultless condition of the home, inside and out, shows what a housekeeper she is.
Mr. Rimbey delights to talk of the past and many times lives over the days long gone by. He was well acquainted with General Hardin and heard that gentleman make a speech in raising volunteers for the Mexican war and he had little trouble with his burning words to secure the men he wanted and had it not been for his reckless bravery he might have lived to return home. George Rearick, the father of the first girl baby born in Jacksonville, was another well known to him. He knew Colonel Dunlap when a young man and the veteran hotel keeper, Major Simms, was also one of his friends. The immortal Lincoln he heard many a time in political speeches while the elder Governor Yates, Gov. Joseph Duncan, Judge Thomas and others were familiar persons. His father's home was headquarters for the preachers of the early days, and many times they had the honor of entertaining Peter Cartwright, Peter Akers, Dr. Trotter and other soldiers of the cross. Murray McConnel was a character he never forgets and many more of the attorneys of the primitive times were his friends.
The reporter next sought the home of
Uncle Uriah
better known in the town as "Uncle Rike" and found him at work near by. He is much spryer than his older brother though he is no youngster by any means. He was born Nov. 22, 1829, and what has been said of the family will apply to him as well as to his brother. He was married to Thankful Grossman May 6, 1849, for they believed in early marriages in those days. His wife was born in Connecticut Feb. 17, 1826. With other children she helped pay for a bell for the church in her native town by raising onions. She worked as a cigar maker for a while before moving to the west and knew the hardships of the early days.
It was common for the women to walk to church barefooted and when within a short distance of the meeting house stop in some bushes and put on their shoes, and after services repair to the same spot and remove them.
Uriah learned the trade of a brick layer and plasterer and worked hard, often handling the trowel after dark when helpers would hold a tallow dip or some sort of light for his use. He knew what toil was and no set hours bounded his day's work. He saved then and is now enjoying the fruits of his labors. He shows what a man can do who is careful and saving and at the same time temperate and industrious. His father sold deerskins to get money to buy the first sugar bowl the family had while a tea urn brought by the mother from Connecticut is a valued heirloom, as it is more than a century old. His children are: Mary Spencer, of Murrayville; John V., of Ft. Scott., Kans.; Martha Million, of Murrayville; Wallace, of California; Beecher, of Murrayville; George, of Colorado Springs, Colo.; Charles, of Murrayville; Emma, of Murrayville
. Some years ago he retired from active work and now he and his wife are blessed in their old age with the devoted and tender care of their dutiful daughter Emma, who will receive the reward promised those who honor their parents. A granddaughter, Clara, also makes her home with them.
They have 32 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren and it is rather their boast that while Jacob beats them in children they are ahead in the other direction, especially great grandchildren.
It is truly a pleasure to meet such persons as these for they carry us back to the days when life was far more genuine than it is now and when sturdy honesty and purity were at the greatest premium. May they yet live many years is the desire of their numerous friends including the Journal.

As a politician in Canada, Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff has said that he was on the sidelines of the Iraq war, but new information reveals he was on the front lines of pre-invasion planning when he worked in the U.S.
Ignatieff — long known to be a supporter of the decision to invade — was part of an academic advisory team that helped U.S. state department and American military officials conduct strategy sessions.
The academic-turned-politician was singled out in a Pentagon briefing the day before the invasion started.
One of the top officials in Air Command cited Ignatieff's work in helping the military ready comprehensive plans to mitigate collateral damage while preparing for the invasion.
"I personally have been working with The Carr Center for Human Rights," said U.S. Col. Gary Crowder on March 19, 2003. "Michael Ignatieff and Sarah Sewell (another Carr Center employee) and their program are a wonderful program."
Crowder told reporters that he was working with Ignatieff on how to best conduct the war while minimizing civilian deaths.
"They bring non-governmental organizations, military officers, policy makers (and) media into a forum in which we can discuss these issues and better understand exactly each of our requirements," Crowder said.
"If we're required to conduct military operations, we would desire to conduct those while minimizing collateral damage and unintended damage."
While leading the Carr Center, Ignatieff sponsored workshops with high-level U.S. military leaders prior to the invasion of the Iraq.
Ignatieff was one of the leading liberal voices supporting the war and his workshops and writings helped former U.S. President George Bush's administration push the message that the war was necessary.
Tensions heated up in September 2002 when U.S. President George W. Bush told world leaders at a UN General Assembly session to confront the "grave and gathering danger" of Iraq — or stand by while the U.S. acted.
United Nations weapons inspectors returned to Iraq the following month backed by a resolution that threatened serious consequences if Iraq was found to have been hiding weapons of mass destruction.
In March 2003, chief weapons inspector Hans Blix reported that Iraq was offering better co-operation, but insisted that inspectors needed more time to do their job.
On March 17, Bush gave dictator Saddam Hussein 48 hours to leave Iraq or face war.
Three days later, the U.S. launched an invasion which toppled Hussein's government, sparking years of violence in the bloodied country. No weapons of mass destruction were ever found.
Hussein was captured hiding in a hole in the town of Adwar, near Tikrit, in December 2003 and later executed for crimes against humanity.
In his own interviews, Ignatieff has said supporters of the war — like himself — hadn't thought everything through despite having seen plenty of details on the plan for the invasion and during the post-invasion.
"First of all, there was some real failures in post-invasion planning," Ignatieff told PBS interviewer Charlie Rose in September 2003.
"I saw matrices, you know, checklists compiled by, you know, the department of the army and army planners. They had some of the stuff that you'd want on a good post-invasion checklist, but what I think happened on that side was the military victory occurred so quickly that the post-invasion followup just didn't get generated fast enough."
Ignatieff distanced himself from the Iraq war and the Bush administration after he returned to Canada and was appointed deputy leader of the Liberal Party.
"I've learned that acquiring good judgment in politics starts with knowing when to admit your mistakes," Ignatieff wrote in the New York Times Magazine in August 2007.
"The unfolding catastrophe in Iraq has condemned the political judgment of a president. But it has also condemned the judgment of many others, myself included, who as commentators, supported the invasion. Many of us believed, as an Iraqi exile friend told me the night the war started, that it was the only chance the members of his generation would have to live in freedom in their own country," Ignatieff wrote.
The Iraq war was denounced by opponents of the Bush administration around the world for its failure to obtain the approval of the UN.
Ignatieff has said that if he forms a Liberal government, Canadian troops would never be used outside of Canada's borders without the approval of the UN.

The number of people speaking a language other than English has nearly tripled over the past three decades
I wonder what the ratio is in California. But it's bad enough nationwide. Interestingly this looks at 5 and up because that is where the birth rate boom is.
Census bureau data released yesterday shows that the number of people speaking a language other than English has nearly tripled over the past three decades, out pacing the population growth.
While Spanish remains the most widely spoken language after English, other languages, particularly those from South Asia and Africa, have also soared in use, the U.S. Census Bureau said in a report.
One in five people aged 5 or older spoke a language other than English at home in 2011, compared to 1980 where the number was 1 in 11, an increase of 23 million. The bureau calculates that over three decades there was a 158% rise, while there was only a 38% increase in overall US population.
Among those who speak a language other than English at home, two-thirds speak Spanish. About 37.6 million people in the United States spoke Spanish at home in 2011, up from about 11 million in 1980, the Census report found.
Press 1 for Spanish. Press 2 for English. Press 3 for Tagalog. Press 4 for Chinese. Press 5 to end this call.

Superpatriotism by Michael Parenti (San Francisco: City Lights Books, 2004, 160 paages)
to imagine the brainstorming session it took to satisfy the acronym,
USA PATRIOT Act. The solution: Uniting and Strengt-
hening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept
and Obstruct Terrorism Act, is not only cumbersome, it assigns
the patriotism label to those who support the squashing
of civil rights. The subliminal influence of this paradox manifests
itself in that vociferous breed of human often heard suggesting
that critics of U.S. policies should either pipe down or leave the
Parenti identifies this phenomenon as the readiness to follow
national leaders unquestioningly in their dealings with other countries,
especially in confrontations involving military force. He
calls this trend superpatriotism.
(the book) is, at essence, a how-to-manual. It seems that
the America our super- patriots claim to love is neither a geographical
or demographic totality, nor a cultural heritage as such, nor really
a land of such unlimited freedom and economic opportunity and prosperity,
Parenti writes. The superpatriots America is a simplified
ideological abstraction, an emotive symbol represented by other
abstract symbols like the flag. It is the object of a faithlike
devotion, unencumbered by honest history.
stated that way, it appears astonishingly transparent. But place
it within the context of a white supremacist capitalist patriarchy
like the USA and things get a bit more complicated. Parenti has
spent his life trying to de-complicate such matters and this book
is a crowning achievement in demystification.
the superpatriot, he explains, those who do not share
in this uncritical Americanism ought to go live in some other country.
Weve all faced that one: Dont you love your country?
If you hate America so much, why live here? Love
it or leave it. My country: right or wrong. As
President George H.W. Bush once intoned, I will never apologize
for the United States of America. I dont care what the facts
breaks down the reasoning behind such dogma and in the
process dismantles the facile arguments and declarations of those
who have hijacked the concept of patriotism. With a familiar blend
of outrage and humor, Parenti provides the insights and the facts
one needs when responding to emotional rebuttals like those above
and those being bandied about more than ever since 9/11. He offers
precisely the kind of information that could prevent a debate from
turning into a personal quarrel…especially, as Parenti explains,
when the protestors are made the issue instead of the policies
they are protesting.
the most seasoned dissident can wilt under the pressure of being
labeled anti-American. Even a critic armed with facts
and figures may be drawn into a battle of personalities that distracts
from the issues that spawned it. Parenti counters: We critics
of U.S. policy are not directing our protests against that entity
known as America but against particular U.S. leaders who, we feel,
do not represent the interests of the American people or any other
people, but who advance the goals of a privileged coterie.
says Parenti, we should show gratitude for our freedom to
dissent by refraining from dissenting; and if we speak freely and
critically we are proving ourselves ungrateful and therefore unworthy
of the right to speak.
seems, he concludes, we abuse our rights
by simply using them.
chapters that address topics like religion, sports, the military,
and the omnipresent Were number one mentality,
Superpatriotism is clearly the product of many years of dealing
with all angles of U.S. societyand the influences that have
corrupted it to the point where our level of patriotism is judged
by our level of obedience.
the test of patriotism comes only by reflexively falling into lockstep
behind the leader whenever the flag is waved, Parenti declares,
then what we have is a formula for dictatorship, not demo-
our upside-down world of ever-evolving word definitions, Michael
Parentis Superpatriotism points us in the direction
of truth, justice, and a far more equitable American Way.

Urinary Disorders
Pain in my penis after 2nd ejaculation
I`m a 22 year old guy. After I ejaculate, I get a really bad pain in my penis ONLY if I get another erection anywhere from like 10 minutes to 7 hours after ejaculation. This is NOT the pain in the head that is relieved by urinating. This is pain in the shaft and head, really bad pain that is hard to describe. It`s almost like it is being squeezed or like it just got punched 100 times really hard. No, I dont have rough sex or go crazy masturbating.
I`m just wondering if anyone has experienced this. This occurs only after 2nd or 3rd ejaculation, and if I avoid masturbating or sex on a daily basis, this will not be as painful as before. Pain comes after ejaculation and most of the time after 2nd ejaculation. I have to note, then only I feel pain in erection. I`m a virgin so there should be no STD. Should I worry about this? Please help me. Is this pain because I masturbate too much?

The Bayern Munich legend believes the Borussia Dortmund pairing are a force to be reckoned after watching them tear Ajax apart in the Champions League
Despite Borussia Dortmund's relatively slow start to the season domestically, the youngsters have come to the fore in recent weeks as Jurgen Klopp's side have blossomed in the Champions League, something that has not gone unnoticed by the Germany legend.
"At Barcelona Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Xavi are building a triangle," he told Bild.
"But as a classic duo there is nobody better than the prolific Reus and Gotze. How they split Ajax in the Champions League impressed me. I hope they do not succeed in Munich."
Beckenbauer was also quick to warn that regardless of Bayern's advantage in the table, Dortmund have a stronger squad than ever before and tipped a close encounter at the Allianz Arena.
"We are well advised not to boast of our superiority in the table. I think Dortmund are even better than last season. I think a draw is likely and Bayern could live with that result better than Dortmund."

My wife and I recently spent five days in the Bay Area. Here are some highlights:
• Dim sum at Yank Sing (Rincon) has become our "goto" place after we touch down at SFO and BART to our hotel. Our m.o.: We walk there and de-compress after the flight over soup dumplings and so much more. Comfortable shoes.
• Drinks at the bar at Bix.
• Porchetta at Roli Roti (Saturday morning at the Ferry Plaza).
• Lunch at M.Y. China. I expected good soup dumplings, killer noodles, etc. I was pleasantly surprised with the house cocktails. This is a new place (opening week when we were there for lunch) but I predict good things. I had a chance to chat with both the owner and the manager. The place is in good hands. Prices are large as are the portions. Bring a friend and share, all will be good.
• Pasta at Barbacco. It's always good to sit at the counter and nibble on the chicken liver bruschetta, the maccheroni chitarra with the pork ragu and the killer orecchiette with broccoli rabe and fennel sausage. Service is pleasant, wine selection is good. The temptation is to order way too much food.
• The lobby bar at the Mandarin Oriental. It's where you go Friday night after you put your name on the waiting list for Barbacco because you forgot to make reservations. A calm oasis before heading back to Barbacco.
• RN 74. We were walking to our Sunday sports bar when I saw this place on Mission. It looked interesting from the outside . We popped over late Sunday night with no reservation and enjoyed good food, good wine, excellent service. I wasn't aware of the Michael Mina connection at the time. Rather, it just seemed like a place we would enjoy and it paid off. I discovered the train motif and all was bliss. I asked the wine guy to operate the vintage railroad arrival/departure "clicker." Very cool. Go for the escargot, Spanish-style octopus, nettle risotto, wines, etc. but stay for the interior design. This was found gold.
• The bar at the Ferry Plaza Wine Merchants, at off hours, is one of the most pleasant seats in town. Source your own food, or not. Source your own wine, or not. Good people/good music.
• Brunch at Epic Roast House can be pretty good. A bottle of bubbly, half a dozen properly shucked oysters, dungeness crab eggs benedict, roast beef hash, oh my. It's a well-dressed crowd on Sunday. I like that.

Hello Fred…. Still enjoying Langalist Plus…..
Have been searching each issue for a reliable routine to "Repair" IE6….IE6 SP-1.
Have tried everything out there…and have not found anything that works. Under Win XP Pro, IE6 does not show up in the Add/Remove Programs display…..and by George no other place (that I can find)…..
Don't know if this would be a "biggie" for your readers…but for this ole' boy from Mississippi, it would be a godsend….cause I have clients that regularly need some remedy, rather than doing the full Montie repair.
Thanks for your time…and keep up the good work.. Windy Wes McIngvale

Community Board Pulls QueensWay Funding Priority, Community Workshops Coming Up
Queens Courier reports that Community Board Nine removed the QueensWay — a proposal to convert the former Rockaway Beach LIRR line into a public greenway — from its capital budget. The project already received $467,000 from Governor Andrew Cuomo and $600,000 from private donations to conduct a feasibility study. As a CB9 member told Queens Courier, "If the feasibility of a project can't be figured out when it already has nearly a half million dollars to figure it out, then there's a problem." As of yet, CB9 hasn't replaced the QueensWay with any other item on its budget priorities.
While we're talking about the QueensWay, a series of community workshops regarding the greenway proposal are coming up. Tonight, a meeting is taking place in Forest Hills — details here. Tomorrow, another workshop will happen in Ozone Park — details on that one here. Both meetings will be an opportunity for community members, business owners and interested individuals to share input and ideas on the design and programming of the QueensWay. If you can't make it to one of these events, there will be more opportunities for discussion in January and February.

Myths of Global WarmingCommentary by H. Sterling Burnett
July 23, 1997
The Clinton administration has decided to commit the United States to finalizing a treaty in December 1997 that would impose internationally enforceable limits on the production of greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2). That decision was based on the belief that global warming is significant, that humans are its primary cause and that only immediate government action can avert disaster. Before embarking on a course of action that would do little environmental good and great economic harm, the public and Congress should examine the myths that are driving ongoing treaty negotiations.
One myth is that the earth is indisputably warming. While ground-level temperature measurements suggest the earth has warmed between 0.3 and 0.6 degrees Celsius since 1850, global satellite data, the most reliable of climate measurements, show no evidence of warming during the past 18 years. Even if the earth's temperature has increased slightly, the increase is well within the natural range of known temperature variation over the last 15,000 years. Indeed, the earth experienced greater warming between the 10th and 15th centuries - a time when vineyards thrived in England and Vikings colonized Greenland and built settlements in Canada.
A second myth is that scientists agree that humans are causing global climate change. The scientific experts most directly concerned with climate conditions reject the theory by a wide margin. For instance, a Gallup poll found that only 17 percent of the members of the Meteorological Society and the American Geophysical Society think that the warming of the 20th century has been a result of greenhouse gas emissions - principally CO2 from burning fossil fuels. Only 13 percent of the scientists responding to a survey conducted by the environmental organization Greenpeace believe catastrophic climate change will result from continuing current patterns of energy use. In addition, more than 100 noted scientists, including the former president of the National Academy of Sciences, signed a letter declaring that costly actions to reduce greenhouse gases are not justified by the best available evidence.
While atmospheric carbon dioxide has increased by 28 percent over the past 150 years, human-generated carbon dioxide could have played only a small part in any warming, since most of the warming occurred prior to 1940 - before most human-caused carbon dioxide emissions.
The third myth is that the consequences of near-term inaction could be catastrophic and, thus, immediate government action is warranted. A 1995 analysis by climatologists T.M.L. Wigley, R. Richels and J.A. Edmonds concluded that the world's governments can wait up to 25 years to take action with no appreciable negative effect on the environment. They found that governments can cut emissions now to approximately 9 billion tons per year or wait until 2020 and cut emissions by 12 billion tons per year. Delaying action until 2020 would yield only an insignificant temperature rise of 0.2 degrees Celsius by 2100.
In short, the government has time to gather more data, and industry has time to devise new ways of lessening greenhouse gas emissions.
The fourth myth driving current treaty negotiations is that anticipated global warming will cause all manner of environmental disasters including, higher ocean levels and increased hurricane activity. Reputable scientists, including those working on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reject this myth.
Sea levels are rising around the globe, though not uniformly. In fact, sea levels have risen more than 300 feet over the last 18,000 years - far predating any possible human impact. Rising sea levels are natural in between ice ages. Contrary to the predictions of global warming theorists, the current rate of increase is slower than the average rate over the 18,000-year period.
Periodic media reports link human-caused climate changes to more frequent tropical cyclones or more intense hurricanes. But recent data show no increase in the number or severity of tropical storms. Since the 1940s the National Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory has documented a decrease in both the intensity and number of hurricanes. From 1991 through 1995, relatively few hurricanes occurred, and even the unusually intense 1995 hurricane season did not reverse the downward trend. In addition, the 1996 IPCC report on climate change found a worldwide significant increase in tropical storms unlikely. Most scientists agree that any regional changes in hurricane activity will continue to occur against a backdrop of large yearly natural variations.
As scientists expose the myths concerning global warming, the fears of an apocalypse should subside. So rather than legislating in haste and ignorance and repenting at leisure, our government should maintain rational policies, based on science and adaptable to future discoveries.

The ranks of the unemployed rose faster in the Tampa Bay region over the past year than in almost any other large metro area in the country, according to government data released Wednesday.
Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that among large metro areas, Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater ranked third nationally for growth in its unemployment rate. It swelled from 3.7 percent in February 2007 to 4.8 percent in February 2008.
That's still behind the national rate of 5.2, but higher than Florida's 4.5 percent rate in February.
The area's 1.1 percentage point increase put it behind only Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., and Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev.
The rise, driven by declines in construction and the housing market, is just another sign of an economic downturn that may get worse before it gets better, said Chris Cate of Florida's Agency for Workforce Innovation.
"It's not surprising that metro areas here as well as in California and Nevada are seeing large increases in unemployment, because each of those areas has seen great declines in the housing market," Cate said.
If there's a silver lining, it's in the diversity of the area's employers, said Ed Peachey, executive director for WorkNet Pinellas, which handles employment services in the county.
He pointed to financial services, manufacturing, health care, retail and hospitality.
"I think the fact that we have a strong base in all those areas will help us recover more quickly," Peachey said.
Plus, he pointed out, he wouldn't really call a 4.8 percent unemployment rate "high."
"Our unemployment rate was very, very low, so there was a lot of room to grow," he said.

Coastals youth sports program gets third year funding
Coastals Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation (HPER) was recognized by the National Youth Sports Corporation as having a high quality program that has impacted many at-risk children in the area. The federal grant was written by Gib Darden, associate professor and chair of the department and NYSP project administrator; funding is from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
The NYSP provides children from low-income families with academic preparation and instruction designed to improve their physical activity and health habits. In addition, the five-week summer program also acquaints participants with career and educational opportunities within a university setting. The program emphasizes the development of self-responsibility, character and leadership skills through participation in sports and physical activity.
The program has partnered with Horry County schools to determine high-need students in areas throughout the county. The program has gained in enrollment since its inception in 2003, with more than 230 children participating in the 2004 program and with an instructional/counseling staff including Coastal students, student-athletes and faculty, as well as personnel from Horry County Schools. The 2004 program successfully engaged the local community, which contributed more than $120,000 in donated goods or in-kind contributions, such as medical exams, meals and special events and speakers.
This program has been recognized as one of high quality by the National Youth Sports Corporation, said Darden. It continues to grow steadily, both in numbers of participants and within the community. It is an excellent opportunity for community partners to come together to provide something special for our economically at-risk youth.
For more information about the program, contact Gib Darden at 349-2944 or Cari Rowe at 349-4126.

Is there an easy way to make newsbin unrar to a specific folder based on expressions.
For Example;
if file name contains ".s0" then unrar to a folder TV
if file name contains "1080P" and doesn't contain ".s0" unrar to a folder called 1080
It appears one way I may be able to is by setting all my downloads to unrar to one folder and have scripts enabled with a script that then moves the files to the assorted drives / folders that I want things placed into.
Unfortunately I know nothing about writing a script for newsbin.
I do have some very old school 'basic' programming recollections and a good understanding of logic statements, but no clue as to putting them in a script file (text file what extension?)

Excellence in Research
Each year, the University at Albany honors special members of its community with Excellence Awards denoting exceptional contributions to the life of the campus. Four faculty members received this tribute in 2005 for Excellence in Research.
Max Lifchitz, Music
Professor Max Lifchitz of the Department of Music has a long record of distinguished achievement as a composer, pianist, and conductor of international repute. His work has consistently helped to foster cultural connections, especially between the American hemispheres. As a performer, he has demonstrated a career-long commitment to contemporary concert music of the Americas. In yearly concerts and recordings of works by living composers, he presents to the public an admirable portrait of musical diversity. He was born in Mexico, and trained at Juilliard and Harvard.
Lifchitz's primary production vehicle is North/South Consonance, the New York City-based contemporary music group he founded and has directed for 25 years. The North/South reference highlights the shared cultural roots of North and South American concert music, and celebrates the differences among nations embodied in the artistic expression of their citizens. His stewardship of the creative estate of the Mexican master Carlos Chávez, for which he has produced a performing edition of Chávez's opera "The Visitor," is further testament to Lifchitz's commitment to the tradition to which North/ South is heir.
Lifchitz is a "fearless and principled musical dynamo" who has been reviewed for more than 30 years by the likes of Gramophone, American Record Guide, and The New York Times.

I took off work last Monday to change my name at the Social Security Office and the DMV and all I can say is…what the heck did I agree to? In NYC, not sure about other states, to change your SS#, you can either mail your original SS card, your original marriage license, the change form, and any other original paperwork you need, or else you come in and do it. For me, mailing all that important info was just not an option, so I opted to go in. All I can say ladies, is just be prepared to wait and do your homework..find out if your local office actually does the new cards or not (the one by me apparently does not and I had to go elsewhere), and make sure you have all your paperwork or else they are not going to help you. Same goes for the DMV….check the website and make sure you have everything because you wait a LOOOOOOONG time, and getting turned away is the WORST.
For my forms, I actually used the MissNowMrs program and was really glad at how easy it was. I was happy to have all the forms in one place…I can only hope with the next version they'll be able to figure out a way to have the program wait in line for me.

Kennedy Paces Waves to 90-41 Win over CSLA
Daphanie Kennedy had 22 points and seven steals to lead the Pepperdine women's basketball team to a 90-41 exhibition win over Cal State L.A. on Sunday afternoon.
MALIBU, Calif. Â Daphanie Kennedy had 22 points and seven steals to lead the Pepperdine women's basketball team to a 90-41 exhibition win over Division II opponent Cal State L.A. on Sunday afternoon at Firestone Fieldhouse.
The Waves shot 46.9% for the game and limited the Golden Eagles to 31.9% shooting. The Waves collected 24 steals, finished with a 44-33 rebounding edge, and outscored Cal State L.A. 50-14 in the second half.
"We had a much better effort today," Pepperdine Coach Julie Rousseau said. "Daphanie gave us a lift and played the way she's capable of playing. She was the catalyst in the second half."
Kennedy (
"I felt really good today," Kennedy said. "I thought we played great in the second half and we had more pep in our step. We're coming together as a team in our play. We know who we are, where we are now, and where we need to go."
Miranda Ayim (
"I was pleased with out effort but there's still a lot to clean up before the first conference game on Friday," Rousseau said. "The difference between today and Wednesday was the effort"
Up next, the Waves open the regular season at home when they face Cal State Northridge on Friday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m.

Roar played like cowards: Postecoglou
Brisbane Roar coach Ange Postecoglou has accused his side of playing like cowards, labelling their lucky 3-3 draw with Perth Glory on Wednesday night as their worst A-League performance of the past 18 months.
In a refreshingly honest and brutal assessment rarely seen nowadays in professional sport, Postecoglou said his team didn't deserve to sit in second spot on the table following their selfish and lacklustre display against the Glory.
An out-of-sorts Roar were 2-0 down after just 26 minutes, but shot out to a 3-2 lead by the 69th minute courtesy of a brace from Mitch Nichols and Erik Paartalu's bouncing header.
Glory, who were the dominant team throughout the match, rescued a share of the spoils through Mile Sterjovski's 80th-minute penalty, and almost won it at the death through Travis Dodd's header.
Postecoglou was left fuming both during and after the match, declaring the Roar lacked the courage and intent needed to back up on their championship success of last season.
"It's unacceptable," a downcast Postecoglou said.
"I didn't see it coming and I didn't think we had it in us to be honest.
"Sure we can lose a game of football, but lose it our way. Play it on our terms.
"The human qualities of competitive sport were missing - the desperation, the desire to win, a bit of bravery, a bit of courage.
"Courage comes in many forms. In our game, in the way we play, courage means wanting the ball in tricky situations and we were extremely cowardly today in the way we approached the game.
"It's the most disappointing (performance) I think for 18 months to be honest. We haven't played that way for a very long time.
"We failed on every sort of measure we have as a football club."
Postecoglou, who just six weeks ago experienced the high of guiding his team to a record-breaking 36th unbeaten game on the trot, was at a loss to explain the dramatic loss of form since then.
The Roar suffered defeats in their next five games, with last week's 3-1 triumph over Melbourne Victory proving to be a false dawn.
"It's a funny league the A-league. We're sitting in second spot but it just doesn't feel right to me playing like that," said Postecoglou, who is still missing the likes of star playmaker Thomas Broich and Henrique.
"I'd rather finish seventh and understand we're developing a certain style of game than sit where we are.
"I wasn't happy, because I don't want the players to get away with that. I don't want myself to get away with it.
"I don't want to say 'oh yeah we got a point away from home, we're sitting in second spot, things are travelling well' when I know deep inside I can't live with that sort of performance from our football club."
The Roar take on a rejuvenated Adelaide United at Hindmarsh Stadium on Saturday, before returning home for a clash with Sydney FC next week.

Los Angeles, July 2 (IANS) Amanda Bynes' friends are concerned about her and they believe that the actress is following in the footsteps of singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse who died after drinking too much alcohol.
Femalefirst.co.uk reports that publicist Jonathan Jaxson, one of the few friends Amanda keeps in touch with, said the actress is taking the steps of Winehouse, who died in 2011 at the age of 27.
"She's been promising several individuals to record and appear at places, but just can't keep her commitments for whatever reason. She would rather be alone than have friends with her in person. Amanda is not a Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears, she is taking the steps of both of those combined with Amy Winehouse mixed in. Sadly, it could turn tragic unless she gets well!," MailOnline quoted Jaxson as saying.
Jaxson also revealed Bynes' only companion is a new puppy and said she has completely cut her family out of her life.
He said: "She still doesn't surround herself around anyone on a daily basis and is a lonely blue jay. It's really sad. At least she has a dog now to keep her company, that she loves and treats like a newborn baby."
"She's definitely not OK. Still more erratic as ever and between the drugs and what ever mental things she maybe is going through, she's only getting worse. From what I know, she's not on medication or even seen a doctor.
"Her family have attempted to intervene but, last time they did, she fled to Buffalo. Every time they reach out she just gets angrier and angrier. She has alienated everyone. She needs help, but refuses. Amanda is intelligent and knows half of the time what she is doing and why," added Jaxson.

Clinique Almost Lipstick
There's really nothing almost about this product. It was definitely one of the best new products to hit beauty counters last month and its origins are deeply rooted in cosmetic history. The Almost Lipstick craze started in 1989 with the cult-classic Black Honey (two words that will get any beauty junkie visibly excited). Fast forward to the 90′s and the slick stick might as well have had its own place of worship. Now, the line has expanded with 7 new pout-perfect colors. Somewhere in between a gloss and a lipstick, the ultra-sheer lightweight formulas are like a soft peck to the lips. Shades range from natural nudes to wearable violets, pinks and red. New additions to the line include Shy Honey ( light pink), Tender Honey (neutral), Spicy Honey (red), Luscious Honey (magenta), Chic Honey (deep plum), Lovely Honey (barely there pink) and Flirty Honey (pink). So, go ahead and wear red. Or pink. It's almost easy.

This Monday (September 19) at 4:00 p.m. EST, the WJRR-FM radio station in Orlando, Florida will host a live video chat with Matt Heafy, Corey Beaulieu and Nick Augusto of Florida metallers TRIVIUM. The live video chat will be hosted by Pat Lynch and broadcast live at WJRR.com. The guys will also perform their new single "Built to Fall".
TRIVIUM last week filmed a video for "Built To Fall". The track comes off the band's latest album, "In Waves", which sold 22,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 13 on The Billboard 200 chart the highest U.S. chart entry of the band's career. The group's previous CD, "Shogun", opened with just under 24,000 units back in October 2008 to debut at No. 23. The effort followed up "The Crusade", which registered a first-week tally of 31,000 copies in October 2006 to enter the chart at No. 25.

PHOENIX — Civil rights advocates vowed Saturday to challenge Arizona's tough new law targeting illegal immigration, saying it will lead to racial profiling of Hispanics despite the governor's assurance abuses won't be tolerated.
Republican Gov. Jan Brewer on Friday signed into law a bill that supporters said would take handcuffs off police in dealing with illegal immigration in Arizona, the nation's busiest gateway for human and drug smuggling from Mexico and home to an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants.
The law requires police to question people about their immigration status — including asking for identification — if they suspect someone is in the country illegally. It has sparked fears among legal immigrants and U.S. citizens that they'll be harassed by police just because they look Hispanic.
Opponents of the law lingered at the state Capitol on Saturday, and others gathered in Tucson.
The American Immigration Lawyers Association announced it would move its September conference from Scottsdale, Ariz., to another state.
The Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund said it plans a legal challenge to the law, which it said "launches Arizona into a spiral of pervasive fear, community distrust, increased crime and costly litigation."
William Sanchez, president of the National Coalition of Latino Clergy and Christian Leaders Legal Defense Fund, said his group is preparing a federal lawsuit against Arizona to stop the law from being applied.

Hi everybody, Five years ago, i sent a patch for postgresql turkish locale patch, but nobody has taken it into consideration. Now, the source tree is totally different and pg team says they 'partially' fixed turkish locale problem. But it is still non-functional. I don't understand this, because the solution is very simple (at least, it WAS simple for version 6.5... I don't know if the source of the problem is the same now). The source o the problem is : In turkish alphabet, the lowercase of I is ı, not i. And, postgresql parser uses a locale-dependent version of lowercase function. When it encounters an INSERT, it converts it to ınsert, instead of insert... And it gives an error. The solution is very simple : Don't use a locale-dependent lowercase function in the keyword parsing process. Postgres team! Please, in the next minor release, fix this problem. Here, in Turkey, we want to use Postgres, but your attitude discourages us. If there is any subject that I may help, don't hesitate to write me... But anyway please answer me. Regards Ismail Kizir

Claudio Ranieri says Riyad Mahrez risks ending up on the bench if he decides to leave Leicester for Arsenal this summer.
Reports in France claimed the Algeria winger had agreed to leave the Foxes and join the Gunners ahead of the new season, but such rumours appear to be premature.
Leicester and England forward Jamie Vardy turned down the chance to join Arsenal in June, deciding to sign a new four-year deal at the King Power Stadium instead, and Ranieri is urging Mahrez to do the same.
Mahrez scored a stunning goal in Leicester's 1-1 International Champions Cup draw with Celtic at Celtic Park on Saturday evening, and Ranieri wants him to follow Vardy's lead by staying at the club as he plots their title defence.
"Did you see how Riyad is happy? He played so well, worked so hard for the team, he scored a goal and he stays with us," Ranieri said. "It is very important [to keep him] he is one of our stars.
"Other teams maybe have more stars and maybe he doesn't play at the same level, because maybe is on the bench so it is much better he stays with me."
When asked if he was confident Mahrez would stay at Leicester, Ranieri told Sky Sports: "I am always confident. Of course, we know that there are other teams that want to win the Premier League, we our just to defend."

Every time I go somewhere and I see a child--a boy or a girl--something in me wants to reach out to them. I remember being in Vacation Bible School with my childhood best friend and singing the song, "We are the world, we are the children, we are the ones to make a brighter day so let's start livin. There's a choice we're makin, we're savin our own lives. It's true we make a brighter day when we believe."
I will always remember singing with the other kids at the Methodist church where we had gathered. I knew at that moment that my parents were right--kids DO make a difference. We mattered in that moment and we always would. So what did my future hold for me? Well, I became a writer. I grew up to help others. Yet it started because of the compassion and nurture I received from my mom and dad and teachers growing up.
I worry about the future of America--of our economy and our health care. I worry when I see a little baby or a child whether we will be able to hand them an America that sees beyond bipartisanship and anger and hate to the heart of the children in our midst. They are counting on us. The economic debt we are handing them is unthinkable to me. With all the changes in healthcare and the pain of the fighting in elections and campaigns over it I worry whether kids will be able to rise above. I care about my own future in America and I care about my own life and if I had children I would care about them as well.
Children are indeed the future of the world. They are worth investing in with education, health care, shelter, and nurture. They are worth pouring love and attention on. They are the seeds and we must water the seeds to help them grow. A lot of families are choosing to adopt children especially from Haiti and other countries. This is a great way to pour love on a child and to nurture the faith and minds and hearts of special kids. Also children with disabilities matter and it's also important to get kids out of abusive situations and to help them get out of and escape poverty. My church, Topeka Bible Church, does a lot to help the families of Hi-Crest. That neighborhood needs a lot of care and a lot of people are trying to help. Barry Feaker is doing tons to help out in so many ways.
We can all make a difference when it comes to reestablishing the America we used to know. The America when we had a surplus. The America that perhaps was kinder. In many ways we have come a long way. There is less racism in some ways and less sexism and mentalism. There is more understanding of the need to treat women with equality and respect. There is more understanding about brain disorders and more understanding that diseases like schizophrenia are biological, medical conditions that can be treated. Autism is another disorder that is more understood and childhood autism is treated better now more than ever before.
Children also have a faith. They need to be told that God loves them, cares about them, and wants to see them grow into beautiful adults. When we see fighting and abuse, we must conquer it with love and care and compassion. The people who take care of kids, who provide nurture, compassion and education, the people who give love to kids are those who make a huge difference in Topeka. These are the teachers, the moms and dads, the pastors, the youth group leaders, the Girl Scout leaders--all who make a difference in a child's life are those who care. Let's make a way for the future of the children. Let's do it through education funding, through adoption, through alleviating childhood poverty and obesity and let's do it now.

Christian Rajcic ended his high school golf career by finishing 26th at the Southern California Regional Tournament.
Rajcic shot a 74. 72 and was the cutoff mark for the state tournament for individuals not on a qualifying team.
Rajcic was named first team All CIF by the Brietbard Foundation and was first team All Palomar League. He had the lowest average score in Palomar League play, averaging an under par 35.4. He finished league play five strokes under par.
In April he was honored as the Hall of Champions Athlete of the month — the only golfer so honored this year. He was the Ramona High School Most Valuable Player for the golf team. Ben Anderson-Parks earned the Most Improved Player award.
Rajcic is undecided about college. He has been recruited by University of La Verne, University of California San Diego, University of San Diego, and San Diego State University. He is leaning toward the University of La Verne.

Governor McDonnell calls on leaders to focus on school safety
A task force appointed by Governor Bob McDonnell{ }has unveiled its own recommendations for school safety in Virginia.{ }
The governor called on leaders in education, politics and law enforcment to focus on school safety, including Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman. The final report is due out in June, but the early ideas are already taking root.
Not far from Loudoun Valley High School in Purcellville, the question of school safety isn't really a question at all.
"Anyone that doesn't think it's important, there's got to be something wrong with them."
Monday at Loudoun Valley, the sheriff's office held a drill dealing with the possibility of an active shooter.
As state and national groups look at ways to prevent school shootings, a school safety task force created in the wake of Newtown has made recommendations, like requiring lock-down drills and training for school resource officers.
"I think getting out in front of the issues is always the key," says Sheriff Mike Chapman.
Chapman is on the task force, helping law enforcement deal with threats stemming from mental illness.
"So they're in a position where they understand them better, they can help de-escalate situations better. Just an overall understanding of how everything works," he says.
The NRA unveiled its "School Shield" initiative Tuesday, a report recommending safety measures, most notably having a trained, armed officer in every school in America. It's an idea sure to continue generating debate.
While the NRA's proposals would impact guns in schools, Hutchinson says the group's report would not focus on the proposed gun laws currently being debated in Congress.

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the response rate, in terms of WHO objectives and clinical benefit, in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic or biliary adenocarcinoma treated with gemcitabine, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil. II. Determine the tolerance of this regimen in this patient population. III. Determine the survival without disease progression in patients treated with this regimen. IV. Determine the overall survival in patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours followed by fluorouracil IV over 24 hours on day 1 followed by gemcitabine IV over 80-150 minutes on day 2. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for a minimum of 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving complete response may continue chemotherapy for up to 1 year. Patients with locally advanced disease after 3 months of chemotherapy may receive concurrent radiotherapy with chemotherapy for 5 weeks, or may undergo surgical resection.

The Acoustical Standard (with follow-up) Letters
More of a frontal assault?
Editor: Mr. Atkinson's rebuff of Mr. Holt's argument ("As We See It," November and October '88, respectively) seemed more a frontal assault than a well-reasoned reply. But for whatever reason, the reply misses the point. Taken by itself, Mr. Atkinson's position is simple enough, and undoubtedly quite correct. People, singly as consumers and hobbyists, or collectively sitting on a "relatively formal listening" jury, can and will make value judgments about the quality and likeability of the reproduced sound they hear. I've done that every time I've purchased a new component. I assume everyone else has, too.
But the position of a reviewer is distinctly different from my own as consumer and hobbyist. The reviewer must provide his reader with an intelligibly stated standard by which he, the reviewer, will judge all components coming before him. Your magazine rejects number crunching as the objective standard. In its place, Mr. Holt suggests that the standard is unamplified acoustic music in its performance venue. Though not without some faults which Mr. Atkinson highlights, it is a standard with which I can live. Certainly it is far superior to a "standard" based solely on each reviewer's unique visceral response.
Even if the purely visceral reviewer is able to recreate his evaluation two months later and still arrive at the same conclusion (which is by no means a necessity), his reasons and results are useless to me, the reader. Whether his listening material is "totally artificial" rock or a solo violin, I shall be no better informed. In the end, all that reviewer can tell me is that he liked or disliked what he heard: that the sound of the electric guitar seemed to come from a proper position on the stage, that the effect was quite dramatic as the sound was made to cascade across the listening stage at some propitious musical moment, that the component under consideration reproduced these engineered effects well, or better than the Brand X component he reviewed or listened to the month before. At best, all I, the reader, can do with such a review is to reconstruct the reviewer's test and see if I agree. Unfortunately, I haven't the time, the facilities, or availability of components to do that. While I will surely listen to components I might buy, I use reviews to help narrow the field.
Mr. Holt, on the other hand, offers me observations about reproduced sound which can fit a reference I already have. He may tell me that the music is recessed, as if I were in Row R instead of Row D; that the timbre of the cellos is true, but that the sound of massed strings is a bit more brittle than what one would hear in live performance. I may not agree with his conclusions once I hear the component under consideration (any more than I might agree with the visceral reviewer). But—and it's a big "but"—over a short time I can learn what the more objective reviewer considers the standard, and thereafter more fairly judge his reviews and the components he considers. I may learn that what JGH says sound like real violas to me sound a bit flat, or that what JA (if I may make so bold) says sound like real violins to me sound a bit bright. But with that information I can evaluate their reviews and thereby more fairly judge the components they critique.
The main point of Mr. Holt's October article was that manufacturers have forsaken the standard of live music as the goal to be achieved by sound reproduction. I agree, the new sound of components and source material is too glitzy, too bright, too piercing to be pleasant.
Mr. Atkinson counters by asserting that recordings themselves are an art form, and perhaps he is right (though the quality of that art form may not be all he asserts it to be). Yet reference to a new art form creates more problems than it solves.
Consider the position of a reviewer of modern design art (which others may call graphic or commercial art). Modern design art has only itself as a reference. Each piece must stand or fall exclusively on how it makes the viewer feel. All a reviewer of any such piece can tell his audience is how the work affected him and why he believes he was thus affected. Even if he compares the subject work to another painting previously reviewed and seen by the reader, that reader is no better informed. Every work stands alone, every work is its own standard. Even if the reviewer and I agree that of all the myriad possibilities we only like modern design paintings which fall within the boundaries of possibilities A-G, I still can judge nothing by his review. He may think it fits within A-G and I may not. There is no outside standard by which to measure. So, as a reader looking for guidance, should I travel to a faraway city to see painting X or hear component Y, I am still left adrift.
There is a wonderful record of modern music by Kreiger (CRI SD 483) featuring electrically produced sounds miraculously propelled around the room. I have listened to this record on many systems and enjoyed it on each. But which system brings out the sound closest to the composer's intent, I have no way of knowing. There is a wonderful record by Arturo Delmoni called Songs My Mother Taught Me (Northstar DS0004), featuring a violin and piano. The latter is a record by which I can fairly judge a system or component because I know what it's supposed to sound like—and for me, sounding like live is what it's all about.
I intend no disrespect when I suggest that Mr. Atkinson abandon Magical Ring as a test record and use only records with a verifiable source sound. Even if no source material or reproduction equipment can ever fully realize the original, and even if the hall acoustics are as unknown as the brand of fiddle, at least I have a reference, one which has stood the test of time and is likely to survive into the future. For himself, I'm sure Mr. Atkinson will never buy a component or system which makes Magical Ring sound bad. But that, of course, is a decision he makes as hobbyist and consumer, not as a reviewer.

Lucky Draw Giveaways Include Lady Gaga Tickets, Trip To Los Angeles
This week, Hong Kong retailer Lane Crawford rolls out its second partnership with American Apparel, a special pop-up space selling a range of best-selling basics, at the sprawling "lab concept" space in Admiralty's Queensway Plaza.
Having opened in stages, Lane Crawford's massive 64,000 square meter lab concept space, located across the sky bridge from Pacific Place, currently hosts a shoe and accessories section, "Shoespace" and "Faces," a large cosmetics section. Fashion-wise, at the moment lab concept stocks several of Lane Crawford's favorite designers and brands, including Theysken's Theory, Alexander Wang, Phillip Lim, Scotch & Soda, Rag & Bone and Opening Ceremony.
As Hong Kong Hustle recently wrote of lab concept, the labyrinthine complex of pop-up shops is essentially "a curated shopping experience, bringing young, non-traditional labels that are having an impact on contemporary fashion, all under one roof."
For its new partnership with American Apparel, in addition to the lab concept pop-up section — which includes some items for sale in special vending machines — Lane Crawford has invited several Hong Kong models, bloggers and DJs to model their favorite American Apparel products in a re-creation of the original "Seen on Blogs" project.
In addition, lab concept and American Apparel are hosting a lucky draw from the date of the store opening, April 18, through May 2, for customers who purchase a t-shirt or more. Winners will receive a range of prizes, with new items added daily, including a trip to the American Apparel factory in Los Angeles, gift cards, a new iPad, and tickets to Lady Gaga's upcoming concert in Hong Kong.
American Apparel has been busy in Hong Kong as of late. In addition to the lab concept pop-up and giveaway, the American retailer is hard at work preparing the debut of its official Hong Kong online store.

The Lab Partners' Live Hip-Hop Experiment
The group was born of impromptu jam sessions between the two musicians, with James laying down drums and Birchbauer playing guitar, bass and other instruments over them at his studio. When the pair saw potential in these sessions, they began recording them in the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music.
"I'd been there a couple of times, but I'd never been through the whole place," James explains. "It's just room after room of drum kits and keyboards and orchestral instruments like marimbas and tympanis. I was like, 'Dude, we could record with all of this.' So we'd get together once a week at the Conservatory and just record everything we possibly could. Then we'd go back to Brandon's studio, chop up those sessions and build drum loops out of them."
Once Birchbauer built the foundation of the songs, James recorded vocals over them. In the spirit of The Lab Partners' jam sessions, these vocal sessions were also unscripted.
"We go through each beat, one by one, live with headphones on, and just improvise and freestyle," James says. "We'd just improvise and freestyle over them, not just rapping, but conveying whatever mood and idea the music suggested to us, laying down whatever feeling the music gave us. We'd get together once a week to record more of these first impressions, then build on them from the week before. We were knocking out 10 to 15 songs a week. I've never been so productive in my life."
From a bank of more than 100 song sketches, they singled out about 30 for completion. The 16 tracks that make up their self-titled debut album touch on the traditional, head-nodding hip-hop the Rusty Ps are known for, but the vibe is far looser and spacier. James sings nearly as much as he raps, and many songs ride a dub-reggae groove, with prominent melodica, xylophones and muted trumpet taking the lead for long stretches.
For The Lab Partners' CD release show Saturday, the duo has been rehearsing a performance that's more Andrew Bird than Run-DMC, reconstructing their beats with an arsenal of instruments and gear instead of a pair of turntables.
"I have a couple loop pedals, so I can play the bass part, loop it, then draw a guitar, drop down the guitar part and loop it and build up the beat on the fly," Birchbauer says. "Adam is pretty much a freestyle kind of MC, so we can just kind of vibe off of each other."
James will be singing and playing drums, though not, he stresses, at the same time.
"I wish I was Phil Collins, but I'm not," he says with a laugh. "My drum abilities really aren't up to par with my rapping yet, so I'll probably start working two or three different microphones, one straight and one on a loop pedal and probably another on an effects box. Then once I'm done with my lyrical portions, I'll go back to the kit. It's exciting, but I'm a little nervous because there's so much room for error."
The Lab Partners' CD release party is Saturday, Dec. 19, at Mad Planet, with supporting sets from Rusty Ps, Pezzettino, Chalice in the Palace and DJ Madhatter. The $10 cover includes a copy of The Lab Partners CD.
