Clint Dempsey talk; because we love Clint Dempsey talk
Apr 8, 2012, 10:09 AM EDT
If there were any lingering doubts that well-heeled pursuers will wave stacks of cash at Fulham for American striker Clint Dempsey during the summer transfer period, Saturday's latest display surely put them to rest.
Two more goals against Bolton (in Saturday's 3-0 win) gives Dempsey 21 for the year, as he keeps ticking off the the accomplishments:
- Saturday's pair gives Dempsey 15 in Premiership play this year, a new club record. His total betters Louis Saha's 13, set eight years ago at Craven Cottage.
- He has 12 goals for Fulham since New Year's. Plus, Dempsey threw in a game-winner in the U.S. national team's 1-0 February win over Italy.
- A week ago, Dempsey's 13th strike in English Premier League action broke his own record for EPL goals by an American, 12, set in the 2010-11 campaign.
Dempsey has 16 months left on his Fulham contract. So this summer is the time for the little club in West London to capitalize. Who will come calling?
It may not be Manchester United or Chelsea, although the biggest of the Premiership biggies cannot be ruled out.
Dempsey could end up traveling East, into the continent. Would a German club, for instance, a near-the-top side such as Schalke 04, see Dempsey as a way to make hay in next year's Champions League?
Dempsey might not see much point in a joining a club in the "good but not great" universe, a side like Stuttgart or Bayer Leverkusen. They might get into Europa League play next year, but Dempsey's checked the box on that one.
Back in England, clubs like Liverpool and Newcastle fall in the same category. Playing in Champions League seems to be Dempsey's primary motivation for wanting to graduate out of Craven Cottage, a place dear to the man's heart, but one he has outgrown.
What says "outgrown," by the way, like setting records around the ground?
Dempsey's goals, the breakdown:
League matches: 15 goals, 33 appearances
UEFA: 3 goals, 7 appearances
FA Cup: 3 goals, 2 appearances
Total: 21 goals, 42 appearances

Just a place to pile and share stuff.
Lotsa art, lotsa feminist stuff.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I just threw out 4 large shopping bags worth of old stuff from school that I definitely won't ever need again since I'll be going to University in about 2 weeks.
And it felt SUPER liberating to finally get rid of all those bad memories and junk that accumulated over 6 years from my last school. It also feels good to know that I never, ever have to go back to that. - YAY!
You know what the most beautiful thing about me getting a shiny new PC is?
….as long as I manage to assemble the damn thing without it exploding in my face right afterwards. Or three weeks later…. 'SPLOOOOOOSIONS!
it's ridiculous how goddamn excited I am for Dragon Age: Inquisition and my qunari mage babe. Like really damn ridiculous.
My Least Favorite Trope (and this post will include spoilers for The Lego Movie, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Matrix, Western Civilization, and—cod help me—Bulletproof Monk*.) is the thing where there's an awesome, smart, wonderful, powerful female character who by all rights ought to be the Chosen One and the hero of the movie, who is tasked with taking care of some generally ineffectual male character who is, for reasons of wish fulfillment, actually the person the film focuses on. She mentors him, she teaches him, and she inevitably becomes his girlfriend… and he gets the job she wanted: he gets to be the Chosen One even though she's obviously far more qualified. And all he has to do to get it and deserve it is Man Up and Take Responsibility.
And that's it. Every god-damned time. The mere fact of naming the films above and naming the trope gives away the entire plot and character arc of every single movie.
Elizabeth Bear - My Least Favorite Trope (via feministquotes)

North Carolina will be without Reggie Bullock against UNLV due to concussion
Dec 29, 2012, 12:36 PM EDT
North Carolina junior Reggie Bullock will miss Saturday's game against UNLV after suffering a mild concussion during practice Thursday evening, the school announced via Twitter.
Bullock, a 6-7 native of North Carolina, is averaging 13.1 points and 5.7 rebounds per game, both good for second on the team.
Against the length and athleticism of UNLV, Bullock could have been an asset. He was a lone bright spot in North Carolina's upset loss to a struggling Texas team earlier this month when he scored 18 points. As a strong perimeter defender, UNLV will have the advantage in Bullock's absence.
Katin Reinhardt and Bryce Dejean-Jones could get more touches on the perimeter with Bullock out of the lineup, but Anthony Bennett and Khem Birch will still be the focus on the interior for the Rebels.
Without Bullock in the lineup, the Tar Heels will also need to fill in offensively, which means more from P.J. Hairston, Leslie McDonald, and Dexter Strickland.

No Indian GP return in 2015 as Baku street race set to happen 6 March, 2014 View of Baku's iconic Flame Towers India's return to Formula One will have to wait until at least 2016, by which time a new race in Azerbaijan could also be on the calendar, commercial supremo Bernie Ecclestone said on Wednesday. Speaking to Reuters, the 83-year-old Briton dampened Indian hopes of the Buddh International Circuit near New Delhi hosting a race again next year after being dropped from the 2014 championship. 'At the moment, India won't be on for next year for sure,' said Ecclestone. 'Probably 2016… they're gradually getting over all the bureaucracy with the tax position inside the country and the...

So I went on an adventure today to Beacon Hill, which of course meant one thing: CHARLES SUMNER.
Ladies and gentleman, I give you the house he spent most of his life in. Oh yes.
Season 3 didn't go so well, Sam. Just saying.
The past month has been bleh, but hopefully I'll be drawing more quality comics like this one in the near future.
It's too early but I laughed louder than I should have

This post is so important to me.
DeLong (representing Hawaii) received by Emperor on 8/14/1871 (6/28/Meiji 4). Confirmed (via megcubed) that Charley Longfellow was present. At the end of the entry for that day is the following:
"That day the Resident Minister (DeLong) and the 4 men who accompanied him were to have been received at the Enryōkan with food and (alcoholic) drink, but as it was the middle of summer, this was postponed."
Meiji Tennōki (Record of Emperor Meiji) Volume 2, p. 486
I can hear Charley already. "AND I GOT DRESSED UP FOR NOTHING, YOU GUYS."
I was legally an adult… I could have been off on my own… doing adult things… and I was reblogging those creepy meme faces and using "le" before everything.
I hate the person I used to be. The only perk is that I didn't figure out tags until later, so hopefully my shame is hidden forevermore…

Daring Do blinked slowly against the blood dripping into her eyes. Her gaze fell on the massive figure standing before her. He stood tall, protecting her from those that would try to kill her. She watched his army of jungle cats leap out to his side. She shivered in pain but slowly relaxed as his tail wound around her, the hand securing against her side.
Her wounds started to seep into shades of grey, her consciousness starting to slip away. She smiled tiredly as her tired pink eyes slowly slid closed. She was not sure she had or ever would feel safer than she did now.
"Guess all that flirting paid off, eh, Ahui?"
"Only I will be the one to crush you, my little Daring."

As the Alpine Dragon Queen, I make my subjects out of the lost and forgotten... Please save the unborn by clicking upon the shells and give them the love they need.
I got bored last night so I decided go get some adoptables! Cod! I haven't used these things since Gaia online! *dies* So, help them out if you can.
Yo, what up my pals! ^^ I finally decided to change this stupid thing! O_O! Big shocker, huh!?
Ok, so a little about myself.
I am purely a Classic Spyro lover. I played the first Legend of Spyro game on DS and hated it, sorry but I did. And Skylanders, I've looked up so much stuff on it that I just dislike it more and more!
Here is what I count as Classic Spyro:
Spyro the Dragon,
Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage,
Spyro: Year of the Dragon,
Spyro: Season of Ice,
Spyro: Season of Flame,
Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs,
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (even if it was a terrible game!),
Spyro: A Hero's Tail,
Spyro: Shadow Legacy.
Spyro: Orange.
I have a deep love for cheesy 90's cartoons, even if they're REALLY horrible!
EDIT: April 2013.
I'm dating an actual human!
I have three fictional children, Rav, Jamie and Zath. Their father is Raziel from Soul Reaver.
Uhhhh..... Let's see..... oh yeah! For Spyro, I only approve of a relationship with Elora. I hate Ember's fangirl guts! Though I do like her with Bandit from Shadow Legacy.....
Random facts!
* I collect Piggy banks! I have 19 different ones so far!
* I'm not attracted to guys remotely near my age but instead have more interest in guys in their 30's and 40's.... o~o'
My favorite Psalm.
1 Praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD from the heavens;
praise him in the heights above.
2 Praise him, all his angels;
praise him, all his heavenly hosts.
3 Praise him, sun and moon;
praise him, all you shining stars.
4 Praise him, you highest heavens
and you waters above the skies.
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for at his command they were created,
6 and he established them for ever and ever—
he issued a decree that will never pass away.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
stormy winds that do his bidding,
9 you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars,
10 wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,
11 kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,
12 young men and women,
old men and children.
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for his name alone is exalted;
his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
14 And he has raised up for his people a horn,[b]
the praise of all his faithful servants,
of Israel, the people close to his heart.
Praise the LORD.

Tom Clancy's HAWX 2 and ... it's kinda good! It's a pretty basic shmup with an 8-bit theme, though it's a bit more forgiving than most traditional games in the genre. (Your plane can actually take more than one hit before going down.)
Everything else is pretty much what you'd expect: a rad soundtrack; several weapon types; and an endless supply of enemies to blast into oblivion. Don't believe us? Hit up the link and check it out.

Throughout Cajun and zydeco music history there are gigantic events shaping the genres. Then, there are small things going unnoticed and often forgotten. Like the theory that if a butterfly flaps its wings in Africa a hurricane will strike the Eastern seaboard, these events ripple over time until they create pivotal impacts on local music — be it a man's controlling wife, a British folk-rock song, the lack of a shoulder on Highway 90 or the simple act of standing, these events left a lasting legacy on South Louisiana music.
The Delta has Good Dirt
If the land along the Mississippi River didn't have rich soil, Cajun music might sound very different.
After Le Grand Dérangement, Acadians ping-ponged about the globe. However, Cajun culture only came into being in Louisiana. And not just Louisiana but southwest Louisiana. Only here existed the circumstances that galvanized the Acadian-to-Cajun transition.
In waves, they made it to Louisiana, a Spanish colony at the time. The second wave came in 1766 and settled along the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge — an area dubbed the Acadian Coast. To lure them into settling here, the Acadians received long strips of land with a narrow frontage on a river or bayou.
But the successes of the Spanish-guaranteed generous land offerings could not last. Creoles — at the time a label for anyone, white or black, born in the colony — demanded this alluvial soil belong to planter class farmers.
In an overlooked second migration, Acadians were pushed out or purchased away by more affluent Creoles. Some assimilated into Creole culture, a step up in class, but the bulk ventured west.
Had they stayed on the Acadian Coast, Cajun music and culture would not be the same, if anything at all. Ryan Brasseaux, author of books on Cajun music and dean of Yale's Davenport College, notes that Acadians modeled their lifestyle after those already in the area. For example, to emulate the higher class Creoles they purchased slaves.
"The move westward is pivotal in the sense that Acadian refugees encountered new terrain and ethnic groups which ultimately factored into what we know today as Cajun," says Brasseaux.
Those who did stay on the river are different musically. A prime example is Vin Bruce. Though a French singer, Bruce's music is distinctly not Cajun.
"Their music is remarkably different, less historically influenced by the accordion, more string oriented, more country sounding," says Barry Ancelet, author and UL Lafayette folklorist.
The First to Stand
The modern accordion player's name comes before the ampersand in bands like the Mamou Playboys and French Rockin' Boogie. They solo on the accordion, often showboating to the crowd. Yet traditionally, accordionists sat. One performer deciding to stand altered the music forever.
Though the first to stand outright is lost to time, it is well accepted Austin Pitre was the first to play sans shoulder strap, providing more mobility. It may not seem like much, but the difference between a seated and a standing accordionist is vast. Speaking in generalizations, a seated accordionist plays traditional Cajun music so people can dance. A standing accordion player entertains a crowd, with dancing perhaps secondary.
"I sit … because I'm anti-showman," says Marc Savoy, accordion builder, player and owner of Eunice's Savoy Music Center. "I don't believe in showmanship. You might apply showmanship to commercial music, but I don't think folk music is the place to commercialize it. People do and that's perfectly alright. No music police is going to go arrest them."

It was a perfectly timed development. Around the time standing accordionists took favor, so did television. A standing accordion player is more camera ready than a seated one. No doubt this helped drive the music when it had an opportunity to flourish. Savoy recalls Aldus Roger, playing on TV, as the first player he saw stand. In his opinion this did wonders for the music's acceptance.
"Before that, it was too segregated in small places, it was too isolated," says Savoy. "It didn't really take off like it did until Roger got on television and presented it to the masses. That legitimized it for so many people — the fact that they saw it on television, 'It's ok to be Cajun, because look, it's on television.'"
A Kingly Idea
One accordion player changed music by standing up, another by drawing in the dirt.
The same rings true in zydeco music with the frottoir as with the standing accordion player. Though few washboard — or frottoir — players lead bands, they are often the most energetic presence on the stage.
Washboards have deep roots — or vines. West African music, according to Kingdom of Zydeco by Michael Tisserand, employed notched gourds. Tisserand notes zydeco performers used actual washboards, others took drip trays out of early refrigerators. Clifton Chenier, while driving refinery trucks and pumping gas in Port Arthur, Texas, set the instrument in steel in 1946. Meeting with Willie Landry, a welder for the Texaco Refinery, Chenier drew a rough model of what he wanted for his brother. There in the dirt, Chenier scratched out the first frottoir. No longer bound by a chain around the neck — instead snuggly clutching the shoulders — the frottoir Landry forged changed the visual aspect of Louisiana music.
Tisserand, heralding the frottoir-born showman, described Iron Jaw of Rockin' Dopsie's band picking up chairs with his teeth while performing.
"It also gives an almost moth-to-the-flame attraction on stage," says Sean Ardoin of Double Clutchin' and Zydekool fame. "People are just drawn to it, making it almost as important in visually identifying zydeco as the accordion."
Ardoin acknowledges its material presents a better sound: "A handheld household washboard usually gives a dead and muffled sound, I believe, because of the wood frame it sits in … [The frottoir] gives a bright and super loud sound that cuts through our amplified music to give us that icing on the rhythmic cake."
|Amédé Ardoin
Amédé Ardoin Dies Too Soon
In the 1920s and '30s, Amédé Ardoin was the zipper of Cajun and Creole music. While he was performing, the two genres — though distinct — came together in a groove that shared his repertoire and style. After his death, they wandered apart, further and further as the two went along. Ardoin's influence on both genres is so formidable that he appears on both Cajun and zydeco compilations and is sometimes incorrectly listed as a Cajun. Breaking Jim Crow era barriers, he routinely played with Cajun musicians.
Not only did his life greatly influence Cajun and zydeco music, so did his death. The details surrounding Ardoin's death are the stuff of legend in every sense of the word. Accounts differ. It's almost too much to believe. Some versions only agree that he is dead.
The popular legend is angry white men captured Ardoin after a performance because he accepted the handkerchief of a white woman to wipe his brow. Torturing him, they capped off the punishment by running him over with either a wagon or a Model T or A Ford. The assailants dumped Ardoin's body in a ditch, one of his nephews telling Tisserand it is now the location of a John Deere shop near Eunice. Some accounts recall his throat was specifically run over. Different versions put it a decade apart. Another version claims he was poisoned by a jealous musician. Or he may have contracted a degenerative disease. Whichever incident is accurate caused his death shortly — or years — after. Modern research suggests he expired in the Central Louisiana State Hospital in Pineville and is buried in an unmarked grave.
Most fans understand the influence Ardoin had, but it is rivaled by the influence he didn't have — the genre's formative years were robbed by his death.
"His playing is the template we all use in one way or another," says Sean Ardoin, the grandson of Bois Sec Ardoin, Amédé's cousin. With Ardoin gone too soon, these templates were limited. Having him around for longer would have meant a bigger repertoire from which to pull. Instead, Cajun and Creole music forged separate paths.
There is another theory about Ardoin's death: dying so young created his legacy, thereby cementing his repertoire into the hymnal of South Louisiana music.
"I imagine Amédé's career following the same trajectory as, say, Mississippi John Hurt. I imagine that he would have faded into obscurity as musical tastes changed," says Brasseaux. He compares his death to Robert Johnson and Jimi Hendrix but speculates Ardoin would have made a comeback during the 1960s' folk revival.
Still, Sean Ardoin is satisfied with what his kin left behind.
"When you're building a skyscraper, you have to go as far down as you wanna go up, right? Well, the foundation he laid allows us to keep rising, and I don't believe we've approached the height limit that his depth has set."
Woodrow Wilson's War on Germans
Jazz, zydeco and Cajun music are the premier sounds of Louisiana. There is no arguing it. However, would they be as loud with an oom-pah oom-pah beat drowning them out? At one point, French was not the prevailing non-American culture in our state. German was. It took government propaganda to silence the polka party.
According to Ellen C. Merrill's Germans of Louisiana, Germans formed the largest foreign-language speaking group in Louisiana, bigger than all others combined. Her book notes 20 percent of Louisiana's 1870 population was German-speaking. In the late 1900s, Louisiana published more than 50 German periodicals and had 250 German-American societies. Though not all would stay, a third of a million Germans passed through New Orleans in the 1800s. Research by UL folklorist Carl Brasseaux puts 53,000 Germans entering through New Orleans in 1853 alone.
Once a strong contributor to Louisiana culture, Germans introduced accordions and sausage and were likely first to privately brew beer — their traditions began to fade around the turn of the 20th century. During World War I, President Woodrow Wilson accelerated the demise by creating the Committee on Public Information, which targeted foreign languages in America.
The Miller Center at the University of Virginia lists the repercussions across the country: burning German books, banning Bach and Beethoven, renaming sauerkraut liberty cabbage, lynching people with German names. In 1918, Louisiana passed Act 114, criminalizing all expressions of German culture. Speaking, teaching and printing the language, flying German flags, selling German-made products all became illegal, punishable by fines and a maximum of 60 years in prison.
Some Germans took shelter in French culture. The German-Acadian Coast Historical and Genealogical Society notes 85 percent of Louisiana residents spoke French by the early 1900s, even if they had a German surname. Those surnames were also changing: Troxler became Trosclair, Schexnayder was accepted into French culture. Allemand, now considered Cajun, is French for German.
Did the German disappearance give headroom to Cajuns, perhaps opening up a cultural vacuum?
"I would speculate that French culture in Louisiana overtook all other ethnic influences," says Merrill. "Part of this was no doubt snobbery, or, at least anti-Hun feelings."
With one less cultural competitor, French became a heavyweight in Louisiana. That oom-pah oom-pah sound faded out and was replaced with a fiddle.
|Iry Lejeune
Highway 90 is widened
In 1948, riding on a current stirred by songs like Harry Choates' "Jole Blon," string music flooded the dancehalls and airwaves of South Louisiana. Then, with one song, Iry Lejeune threw a life preserver to the accordion. After his "Love Bridge Waltz," the fiddle fell out of Cajun music favor and the accordion crested. According to an article penned for Britain's Old Time Music by Mike Leadbitter, the song broke a 10-year dry spell for accordion music on South Louisiana jukeboxes.
A gifted singer and a master of the accordion, and able to craft deeply personal songs, Lejeune had it all and potential for even more.
Then, he had a flat tire in the wrong place.
Lejeune developed a crying singing voice, both melodic and pleasant yet shrill enough to cut through the clangor of a noisy dancehall, an asset before amplification. Plus, his band could play complicated songs. In 2010, Lejeune was named to the National Recording Registry, the institute noting "LeJeune is regarded as one of the best Cajun accordionists and singers of all time."
In roughly a decade, he conquered Cajun music. Though some of his recordings were versions of older songs, according to Ancelet's article "Cajun Music," his renditions are the standards that Cajun bands play, Ancelet stating they are " ...performed by every Cajun band in South Louisiana and southeastern Texas." Lejeune gave Cajuns returning from World War II what they wanted to hear: their music — accordion-driven Cajun music.
His legacy was cut short on the side of Highway 90, outside of Eunice, on Oct. 8, 1955. Lejeune and fiddler J.B. Fuselier were headed home when they stopped to change a tire just after midnight. Unfortunately, widening the highway for extra lanes meant the pair had no shoulder on which to pull the car. As they worked in the dark, a driver going an estimated 90 miles an hour struck both men.
Fuselier survived, but Lejeune's stellar career and life were over just three weeks before his 27th birthday.
|Aldus Roger
Cajun music lost an incredible talent. The Newport Folk Festival and the Cajun Renaissance lie ahead. He could not be there to be a star. Peers riding on his resurrection of accordion music — such as Lawrence Walker, Aldus Roger and Nathan Abshire — would soon overshadow Lejeune even though they could not outdraw or outsell him in his time.
"I believe he would have adapted to the changing musical winds like others did," says Ron Yule, author of Iry Lejeune: Wailin' the Blues Cajun Style. "I think Iry's impact was enhanced by his early death, but his unique accordion style and bluesy earthy voice as presented in his recordings would have continued to be recognized. This great talent would have lived on, and he would have impacted other musicians just as it continues to do today."
Texas Becomes 'Texas'
In South Louisiana music, there are plenty of songs about losing women to Texas men. Seventy-eight years ago, Texas gave back in a big way.
In 1936, Texas celebrated its centennial by becoming … Texas. Celebrating their birthday, Texans threw parties across the state, capped off by a $25 million celebration from June to November in Dallas.
It was more than just a birthday party. It changed the way people regarded the Lone Star State. To distance itself from its Old South past — slaveholding and agrarian — it crafted a new identity: 10 gallon hats, cowboys, oil, six-shooters. Sarah Gertrude Knott's National Folk Festival (held June 14-21 at the Dallas exposition) served a key role, Ryan Brasseaux notes in his book Cajun Breakdown: The Emergence of an American-Made Music. By showcasing the folk cultures of the United States, Texas repainted its image as an inclusive, folksy state. Doing so launched Cajun music — appearing dressed down in bare feet and dressed up in wooden shoes, silk milkmaid outfits, with a 12- year-old as Evangeline — into the folk music universe.
Though the festival touted the 36-member delegation from across multiple parishes (including Lawrence Walker) as representing a culture unchanged in many years, it was far from authentic. However, this event put Cajun music on the folk festival and national stage for the first time. The two troupes (one a six-member band, the other 19 Evangeline-themed dancers) played a rotation of performances, some broadcast on the radio. Brasseaux explains this seed grew into bigger events and the inclusion of South Louisiana music in future festivals.
"People began to think about placing Cajun music on the folk festival stage," says Brasseaux. "[Knott] placed Cajun music squarely within the folk idiom." Knott returned to present the first folk festival in French Louisiana, at the Acadian Bicentennial Celebration of 1955, an event Brasseaux names a precursor to the Festivals Acadiens.
|Dewey and Rodney Balfa
Wallace LaFleur Gets Married
Had Wallace Lefleur been a single man, the Cajun Renaissance might not have happened. Festivals Acadiens, the Louisiana Digital Folklore Archive, a renewed sense of pride in the Cajun identity, all saved by a controlling wife.
In 1964, a band representing Cajun music traveled to the Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island. Lefleur was scheduled to be among the torchbearers bringing Cajun music to a crowd of 17,000 folk music fans. It was not a great time for Cajuns: There was a sense of shame associated with the culture and even local media dogged their venture. The Opelousas Daily World ran an editorial equating Cajun music to crickets chirping under a house. Fearing the worst for the trip, Burton Grindstaff opined, "I wish there were some way to keep Cajuns as sweet and jolly as they are, while keeping their music as remote as possible."
At the last minute, Lafleur dropped out of the trip. Savoy recalls Lafleur's wife as either sickly or controlling, if not both. She nixed his plans, and the band scrambled to replace him. Luckily, Dewey Balfa — fiddler for the Balfa Bothers — filled his spot. It was not only fortunate for them but for Cajuns as a whole.
The crowd's glowing reception — a standing ovation from the throngs there to see Bob Dylan and Joan Baez — reinforced his sense of pride in his culture and sparked a desire to bring the same to locals and the world. Balfa, later a National Endowment for the Arts' fellowship winner, did just that. His ingenuity helped launch the Cajun Renaissance and taught locals to treasure their culture. Because of his experience at Newport, he campaigned for Cajun music and culture anywhere that would give him a stage. His efforts helped start Festivals Acadiens and the Archive. All of it spurred by Wallace Lefleur's sickly, controlling wife.
"Cajun music and Cajun heritage was more or less wanting to be swept under the rug and when I seen all these people [in Newport] so moved with what we were doing, I said, 'Hey this can't be this bad. Something has to be done,'" said Balfa in a 1981 interview with Texas journalist Tim Knight. "I had to do something and the good Lord just blessed me. … I'm just proud. I'm not proud to say that my culture, my music, is better than anybody else. Then yet, it's my own. It's mine. Whatever you have is the best."
Boutté Enlists
On April 3, 1923 violence erupted in Mamou as Willie Guillory roamed the streets randomly opening fire. The next morning deputies battled Guillory at his house, ending his life. Brasseaux details the events leading up to the shooting in Cajun Breakdown. Months earlier, a stray bullet from a dancehall fight killed Guillory's teenage son. It was not uncommon: Violence — fueled by alcohol, competing suitors and rival communities — was so prevalent at dances that there was a joke that if you didn't have a weapon when you came through the door, one was issued to you.
In other words, Cajun and zydeco music flourished and survived in places that were not family friendly. This was not just physically dangerous: How could the music live if young people could not be exposed to it? The violence tapered off through the decades, but Louisiana music still needed a place to meet the next generation. Age-restricted bars would not do.
It gained one when Kerry Boutté visited the beer gardens in Frankfurt, Germany, while enlisted in the Army in the late 1960s. The Cajun from Arnaudville witnessed German culture, food and music being passed down generation to generation. Boutté decided that he would bring home this marriage of food and music.
Years passed before Boutté could open Mulate's in Breaux Bridge in 1980. The first day, he had three workers and two customers. A few months later, he booked his first musical performance. In a former pool hall and crab house with about 30 seats, Zachary Richard and Pat Breaux played dual accordions while backed by Sonny Landreth and She lton Sonnier. No one showed.
Mulate's take would improve: During the next 30-plus years it would help launch and foster careers of many Cajun musicians, including Michael Doucet, and provide a safe haven to bridge the gap between the music's generations.
Boutté's decision to piggyback Cajun music unto Cajun food came during a time of interest in Louisiana's cuisine and culture. Cajun was en vogue: Popeyes hit 500 restaurants; New Yorkers lined up for four blocks to eat at Paul Prudhomme's pop-up restaurant that the city battled to shut down in the Gumbo War; Ron Guidry threw heat from the Yankee mound, after being rescued by Cajun superhero Crawfish-Man.
Today, Mulate's is almost lost in a sea of Cajun restaurants. Even the original Breaux Bridge location closed and reopened under another name. The impact of Boutté's bookings is seen every night a restaurant presents live local music as it was the first Cajun restaurant to do so.
Though the '80s weren't the best time for the purity of Louisiana music and culture –— think The Big Easy, Justin Wilson, "My Toot Toot" — it was a shot in the arm that held the accordion. Bringing the kids to a safe place to see the music ensured local music would live to see the next generation.
As Doucet puts it: "Mulate's was ground zero."
"Cajun Woman"
Growing up, when Michael Doucet heard about the English it was far from positive. One English man, or a "Cajun Woman," changed that and the musical signature of Doucet, fiddler for BeauSoleil.
In the late 1960s, Doucet picked up Fairport Convention's Unhalfbricking at Leisure Landings, a downtown record store. On it he heard "Cajun Woman," penned by the band's guitarist Richard Thompson. In what he calls an a-ha moment, Doucet was struck by the use of Cajun.
"[It] stopped me in my tracks right then and there …" says Doucet. "This music I loved was then so misunderstood and devalued by the majority of people not only in Louisiana but in the U.S. [It] was put down and lost with the demise of unrecorded singers/carriers of our tradition. [It] was finally acknowledged as having worth, not monetary but international intrinsic wealth and, at long last, viable recognition."
Doucet would collaborate with Thompson before forming BeauSoleil, easily the most famous band in Cajun music. The first Cajun band to win a Grammy, BeauSoleil features the most unique sound in Cajun music: rooted but expansive; traditional but experimental.
Before hearing "Cajun Woman," Doucet sought purity in Cajun music, thinking outside influences distorted traditions. With Thompson's influence, he struck the imprint for BeauSoleil's sound.
"I loved the idea of folk-rock roots; the paradigm of going into one's own culture, discovering the gems [both songs and composers], and giving them a fresh approach and arrangement that both paid homage to the past yet made them more contemporary," says Doucet, noting the song gave him an inherent stamp of approval to develop Cajun music in a new way. "This approach really appealed to me and helped me look at the music and our culture in a whole new way. Basically, I found a way to pump new life into our culture's songs."
SEP 29 Here's another national media story on Edwin W. Edwards, this one from National Public Radio - despite the fact that, he says, "people who listen to public radio don't vote for candidates like me." His story, with the young lovely wife, new baby, political backstory and criminal history, seems to be irresistible to the media, especially after they've met him and experienced the full force of the Edwards charm.
SEP 29 Here's more speculation on what's next in the Bruce Greenstein situation from the fourth estate. James Gill calls it "the Greenstein problem." What's the problem? If Greenstein lied about the process of awarding a huge contract to his former employer during an investigation, as is alleged in his indictiment, what's the truth? And who else was involved?
SEP 29 To be fair, this story was posted on Business Insider before Sunday's game (and the wailing and gnashing of teeth that followed it). It's about a study that looked at the communities in which NFL teams are based, and what kind of support those teams have there. No team has stronger community support than the Saints, the study found. (But again, that was before Sunday.)
SEP 29 Bobby Jindal is stumping in Iowa, hoping to bring up his dismal poll numbers, but apparently to know him is not to love him. This post on Bloomberg reports that Ted Cruz kicked his rear in terms of "captivating" the crowd. However, the post tells us, both men have poll numbers in the basement in Iowa, trailing behind MIke Huckabee, Paul Ryan, Rand Paul and Marco Rubio.
SEP 29 Here's a post on Slate magazine about the exams that victims of sexual assualt undergo at the hospital. These exams, which are conducted no only to gather evidence but also to determine what type of injuries the victim sustained, can cost thousands of dollars - and are supposed to be free to the victim under the federal Violence Against Women Act. But Louisiana, apparently not satisfied with the existing level of violence against its women, has been adding insult to injury by allowing hospitals to charge for the exams, the post reports.
SEP 29 Jim Brown blogs about privilege this week, as it applies in the case of football players and judges accused of domestic abuse. The focus mostly has been on football players lately, but judges, including federal judges, also have been accused, he writes.
SEP 29 Blogger Dayne Sherman guest posts on Louisiana Voice here with a horror story about his family's experience with the state employee health care plan. He's been shocked by recent changes, which he attributes to the privatization of the plan by Bobby Jindal. He had to "fight tooth and nail" just to get a routine medication approved for his son, he writes.
SEP 29 Blogger Manny Schewitz posts this entry in his continuing look at conservative memes on the interwebs. These items, which you sometimes see on your cranky Aunt Mabel's Facebook feed, are often unbelievable (with good reason) and, it turns out, completely inaccurate. Manny has some fun with some of the dumber ones, filling in the facts as well as his own opinions.
SEP 29 Jeremy Alford gives us a preview of some of the higher-profile races coming up in the state Legislature over the next year or so. As often happens, politicians are shifting around, playing musical chairs as some move into different offices and others move in to take their place.
SEP 26 Here's a little something blogger Lamar White Jr. posted Thursday. It's a side-by-side of a recent image of Bobby Jindal and the portrait of him that hangs in the Capitol Building. As Lamar says, a picture is worth a thousand words.
SEP 26 The most recent attack ad running in the Senate race features Congressman Bill Cassidy wearing a dark suit and a creepy smile while he accuses Mary Landrieu of kicking veterans and helping illegal immigrants. Politifact, the Pulitzer-winning fact-checking site operated by the Tampa Bay Times, examined Cassidy's claims and called them "ridiculous," giving the ad the (not) coveted "Pants on Fire" label.
SEP 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about three of the state's enforcement agencies: State Police, alcohol control and the fire marshal. He's got some horror stories about each, which he says demonstrate the "swaggering attitude of smugness" of these agencies.

amazing how this story is meant to show a positive in US Economic News.....But Obama actually owns the five worst economic years in the history of the US as it relates to Job Growth and GDP! If we keep this up we soon will parallel the Soviet Union!

States like Utah and Texas that have a conservative government, have done well despite Obama. Things will probably get worse and worse for the country as a whole; having a few spots of refuge is our only hope.

Ya well you won't give Obama any credit of course but you sure didn't mind blaming him before.

Wales plummet in latest IRB rankings

Despite Wales finishing fourth in the World Cup they are ranked eighth by the IRB © Getty Images
Wales have slid to eighth in the IRB World Rankings after their bronze final loss to Australia on Friday.
World champions New Zealand remain on top of the IRB World Rankings after beating France 8-7 in the World Cup final on Sunday, although their cushion at the top has been reduced slightly. The All Blacks have occupied top spot for the last 23 months and for nearly 80% of the time since the rankings were introduced in October 2003, but would have surrendered that position to France had they suffered more RWC heartbreak against Les Bleus.
France's third, and by far the closest, defeat in a World Cup final means they remain third in the rankings behind bronze medal winners Australia and just over three tenths above South Africa, a nation they climbed above last week to break the southern hemisphere dominance of the top three.
Australia's 21-18 victory over Wales in the bronze final on Friday improved their rating by nearly a point and as a result has reduced their deficit to New Zealand to 4.01 points. The defeat was costly for Wales as the points exchange meant they dropped below Ireland and Argentina to eighth.
However, it wasn't only the final two matches of Rugby World Cup 2011 which had an impact on the latest IRB World Rankings with three European Nations Cup matches resulting in three climbs, the biggest by Israel who jump six places to 61st after beating Austria 28-26.
