By DAVID ESPO and STEVE PEOPLES The Associated Press
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — An aggressive President Obama accused challenger Mitt Romney of peddling a "sketchy deal" to fix the U.S. economy and playing politics with the deadly terrorist attack in Libya during a Tuesday night debate crackling with energy and emotion just three weeks before the election.

Romney pushed back hard, saying the middle class "has been crushed over the last four years" under Obama's leadership and that 23 million Americans are still struggling to find work. He contended the death of the U.S. ambassador to Libya was part of an unraveling of the administration's foreign policy.
The president was feistier from the outset than he had been in their initial encounter two weeks ago, when he turned in a listless performance that sent shudders through his supporters and helped fuel a rise by Romney in opinion polls nationally and in some battleground states.
When Romney said Tuesday night that he had a five-point plan to create 12 million jobs, Obama said, "Gov. Romney says he's got a five-point plan. Gov. Romney doesn't have a five-point plan. He has a one-point plan. And that plan is to make sure that folks at the top play by a different set of rules."
Obama and Romney disagreed, forcefully and repeatedly -- about taxes, the bailout of the auto industry, measures to reduce the deficit, energy, pay equity for women and health care, as well as foreign policy across 90 minutes of a town-hall style debate.
Immigration prompted yet another clash, with Romney saying Obama had failed to pursue the comprehensive legislation he promised at the dawn of his administration, and the president saying Republican obstinacy made a deal impossible.
Romney gave as good as he got.
"You'll get your chance in a moment. I'm still speaking," the former Massachusetts governor said at one point while Obama was mid-sentence, drawing a gasp from the audience. He said the president's policies had failed to jump-start the economy and had cramped energy production.
The open-stage format left the two men free to stroll freely across a red-carpeted stage, and they did. Their clashes crackled with energy and tension, and the crowd watched raptly as the two sparred while struggling to appear calm and affable before a national television audience.
While most of the debate was focused on policy differences, there was one more-personal moment, when Obama said Romney had investments in China.
"Mr. President, have you looked at your pension?" Romney interrupted.
"You know, I don't look at my pension. It's not as big as yours," Obama shot back to his wealthier rival.
Obama noted Romney's business background to rebut his opponent's plans to fix the economy and prevent federal deficits from climbing ever higher.
"Now, Gov. Romney was a very successful investor. If somebody came to you, governor, with a plan that said, here, I want to spend $7 or $8 trillion, and then we're going to pay for it, but we can't tell you until maybe after the election how we're going to do it, you wouldn't take such a sketchy deal and neither should you, the American people, because the math doesn't add up."
Countered Romney, a few minutes later, "It does add up."
Under the format agreed to in advance, members of an audience of 82 uncommitted voters posed questions to the president and his challenger.
Nearly all of them concerned domestic policy until one raised the subject of the recent death of the U.S. ambassador to Libya in a terrorist attack at an American post in Benghazi. Romney said it took Obama a long time to admit the episode had been a terrorist attack, but Obama said he had said so the day after in an appearance in the Rose Garden outside the White House.

Honda has given Fireblade fans a reason to smile. With its classy Öhlins suspension, Brembo monobloc brakes, blueprinted engine and drop-dead gorgeous HRC paintjob, the SP is the most desirable Blade in its 21-year history.

This is a bike for two types of people: the well-healed Ducati collector, or a race team owner who will strip it down and compete in Superstock 1000 championships. Acceleration is slightly more urgent out of the corners, but essentially the Panigale R feels and handles the same as the base model, S or Tricolore. It is, of course, a ...

Atlanta >Food & Dining > Azio Downtown
229 Peachtree Street, N.E., Atlanta, GA | Directions 3030333.760442 -84.387567
Monday to Thursday 11:30 - 4:00 / 4:00 - close Friday 11:30 - 4:00 / 4:00 - close Saturday 5:00 - close Sunday 5:00 - close
Neighborhoods: Northeast, Northeast, Downtown
Disappointing in so many ways – I have been going to Azio's for years- every time I come to Atlanta, so probably 10 times. Have always loved the food and ambience, although I don't much like their current decorated style. Menu rather limited, food that we ordered good to very good.
Recently, I showed up with an online Restaurant $25 certificate, redeemable with a $50 purchase, not including liquor. Our tab was over $100. Gave my certificate to the server with the check and the manager declined it. He said he "called three times for authorization". Both of us thought he was lying.
Reported incident to the online Restaurant company and they immediately emailed to me that it should have been honored and issued me a credit to apply towards another restaurant. They also informed me that Azio's had not called them to be removed from their list and that the manager should have honored it.
I have recommended Azio's to dozens of people over the years. I would think that the management would be bending over backwards to keep their patrons happy. I now realize why, on a Thursday night with a convention in town, there were lots of empty tables.
Love Azio!! – If you work downtown, Azio is a great spot for lunch - yummy pastas and salads, and a cool atmosphere. I probably eat here once a week.
Highly recommend Azio if you work downtown, or are staying downtown for a convention!

I have been working at TheLadders.com
Pros – Great benefits--stocked, free kitchen, "unlimited" vacation, 401k matching.
The company regularly celebrates its achievements with paid parties and entertainment.
Work with really smart, talented software engineers. TheLadders "only hires A+ candidates."
Software engineers have the ability to work collaboratively with product to suggest new ideas for features. You're more than a code monkey, and your opinions really matter and are taken seriously.
Regular meetings with your manager to discuss concerns, goals, and achievements.
There are lots of safety nets for quality. Code reviews, functional tests, and unit tests are all mandatory.
Adoption of agile software development methodology really shines.
Cons – Some teams get more "fun" work to do than others, although teams do shuffle occasionally.
There seems to be a bit of a high turnover rate, but everyone that leaves does so for excellent opportunities elsewhere and not usually because they're unhappy at TheLadders.
Advice to Senior Management – The management team is doing a great job. Mark's enthusiasm and passion has a ripple effect that is palpable throughout the organization.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Cardinals struggling to get the ball to Larry Fitzgerald
After all, Fitzgerald did catch three balls for 31 yards on Arizona's 15-play, 91-yard scoring drive on their first possession.
Unfortunately for Fitz, and for Fantasy Football owners everywhere, the numbers on the stat sheet wouldn't change for the remainder of the game. Three catches, 31 yards. In the Cardinals' last two games, Fitzgerald has just four catches for 42 yards, and the six-time Pro Bowler has just one 100-yard game this season.
Fitzgerald's diminished production isn't from a lack of trying to get him the ball. Sunday, Cardinals quarterback Ryan Lindley targeted Fitzgerald 12 times -- but simply missed him on a number of occasions.
"Two of those interceptions would've been big plays to Larry had we gone about it correctly, and that seems to be what's happening," Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt said Monday. "We missed those two times and we missed him on a couple of other things. But we're going to continue to work to get opportunities to Larry."
Fitzgerald is tied for sixth in the NFL with 113 targets through 11 games. But his 55 catches rank tied for 15th in the league, so something is wrong.
"It's hard because you don't know how much goes into trying to work to get these situations," Whisenhunt said. "And when we do get them and they come up and you have it there, and we don't execute on it...you're frustrated you didn't get it done."
And sometimes the effort to get the ball to No. 11 is derailed even before a throw occurs.
"On one sack, we had Larry running wide open down the field and we made a mistake in the line and Ryan had to slide to his left and actually ended up taking a sack on first and ten," Whisenhunt explained. "You look at that play and it's something you work to set up and Larry's behind everybody and that's where Ryan's going to go with it, but we have a breakdown.
"That's been happening too much to us."
The play Whisenhunt was referring to was a first and ten at the Cardinals' 25-yard line following Greg Zeuerlein's missed 35-yard field goal. Fitzgerald lined up to the left against Janoris Jenkins, and beat him cleanly off the line. The Rams brought a delayed blitz with eight defenders rushing the quarterback against eight Cardinal blockers, including tight ends Jeff King and Rob Housler and running back Beanie Wells. But King got beat on the right of the formation by Rocky McIntosh, who sacked Lindley for a one-yard loss.
The Cardinals would punt two plays later.
Despite the struggles in the passing game, Whisenhunt applauded Fitzgerald for remaining positive.
"Larry's been great, he works hard every day, he wants to be successful and it hurts him when he's not," he said. "We're all frustrated, but it hasn't affected Larry from the standpoint of how he's dealt with his teammates and how he works in practice."

Warburton targets a festive five for Bees to thank fans for support
1:00pm Friday 20th December 2013 in Brentford By Stuart Amos
Brentford boss Mark Warburton thanked Bees fans for the reception they gave him on Saturday and is out to repay their support with a very happy Christmas.
The 51-year-old had Jonathan Douglas' injury-time header to thank for a 1-0 win over Oldham Athletic in his first game since his appointment as Uwe Rosler's permanent successor.
The Bees, who replaced assistant manager Alan Kernaghan with ex-Sheffield United boss David Weir on Monday, bounced back from a disappointing FA Cup exit at Carlisle United last week to cement third place in the League One table ahead of the busy festive schedule.
Warburton was delighted to see his side extend their nine-match unbeaten league run in the wake of Rosler's exit, and the former sporting director is after more over the closing weeks of 2013.
"My big fear was this run of form. It ended with defeat in the cup at Carlisle. Now we're on a new run and have started off well," he said.
Getting away: Kadeem Harris in action for the Bees against Oldham
"Our target is the five games over the festive period. We're now clear in third and all we can do is go about our business.
"The fans were tremendous. That was new to me, walking out in front of them.
"I can't thank them enough for the welcome and you will have seen my cheeks flushing.
"I just hope we can deliver the attacking, creative football they want to see."
Brentford travel to Preston North End this weekend knowing defender Tony Craig played a large part in the team's swift return to winning form.
"Tony is an experienced professional, who has played a number of games at Championship level, and is a great talker in the dressing room," added Warburton.
"If every pro was like Tony we'd have no problems in the game. He is an outstanding professional."
Thank you: Mark Warburton was grateful to the support of the Brentford faithful

San Francisco Restaurant Reviews
You can find just about any food in San Francisco, a place where trends are set and culinary diversity rules. Since the 1849 gold rush flooded the city with foreign flavors, residents' appetites for exotic eats haven't diminished by even one bite.
Today San Francisco remains a vital culinary crossroads, with nearly every ethnic cuisine represented, from Afghan to Vietnamese. You don't just go out for Chinese here: regional offerings range from the classic Cantonese to the obscure Hakka cuisine of southern China. And although locals have long headed to the Mission District for Latin food, Chinatown for Asian food, and North Beach for Italian food, they also know that every part of the city offers dining experiences. One of the biggest trends to hit San Francisco is pizza—from obsessive pizzaiolos making authentic Neapolitan pies in imported Italian ovens, to chefs doing their own California spin—you'll be able to find quality pizzas in practically every neighborhood. And with the recent explosion of food trucks, renegade street-food stands, and pop-up restaurants, the local dining scene has become even more varied, creative, and exciting.
Diners also have grown increasingly serious about what they're sipping. In response, restaurateurs are offering more sophisticated wine lists, emphasizing new vintners, lesser-known varietals, and emerging wine-making regions, in addition to more environmental choices like biodynamic and organic wines. And cocktail lovers have been treated to an explosion of innovative drinks that are keeping the city's much-admired bartenders busy pouring, stirring, and shaking from one end of town to the other. Last but not least, beer is also gaining a foothold around the city, from new brewpubs brewing their own beer, to quality beers showing up on beverage lists.

Our goal is to help all our athletes find their finish line.
We have a FB page and Twitter account where we talk about workouts of the day and ways to stay motivated and strong, we blog about our athletes and tell our event stories on our Spartan TV channel and Radio show.
What are we looking for? Brands that share in the passion, performance, competitive spirit, and the forever living in the moment attitude that Spartans have! Our athletes are defining our emerging sport of obstacle racing and we want strong sponsors to be a part of that evolution.
We would like to hear from YOU, the Spartan Army, as to who you might know, who youmight be able to suggest, and who you would like to see Spartan Race build a continuing and forging relationship with going forward.

A warm accepting lead is the best way to introduce a new brand to our amazing platform of Spartan Race.
What's in in it for you? If the sponsorship becomes executed, you and a Guest will receive a Free Season Pass for the 2012 upcoming Spartan Race Season! Not too shabby…

France may not have fared very well in the recent Winter Olympics, but it grabbed the gold in Europe in the race for hotel RevPAR (revenue per available room) in 2001.
According to the results of a survey released earlier this week by Paris-based MKG Consulting, France registered a RevPAR increase of 1.6 percent, while the figure for Europe overall dropped by 2.9 percent over the previous year's numbers. Great Britain's figures dropped significantly (minus 6.5 percent) over the previous year, due largely, says MKG, to a down stock market, the foot-and-mouth disease crisis, and the fact that it felt the impact of the September 11 terrorist attacks more than any other European country.
The survey results showed that southern Europe did generally in maintaining RevPAR, while the Benelux countries and Germany, which was more affected by the slump in the American economy that France, Italy or Spain were, suffered drops of as much as 5 percent. Still, MKG sees a silver lining, stating that much of the RevPAR problem was due not only to the events of September and flat economies, but to the fact that there was a significant addition to supply in many European countries. This fact, says MKG, bodes well for the European hotel industry as global political and economic factors continue to show improvement.
MKG surveyed 3,700 corporately operated hotels in Europe on a month-to-month basis in compiling data for the report. The hotels represented nearly 400,000 guest rooms.

Gareth Bale scored a second-half hat-trick as Tottenham piled the misery on Aston Villa with a 4-0 thumping at Villa Park.
Predict the result and win big with Soccer6
Paul Lambert's side went into the match on the back of their humiliating 8-0 defeat at Chelsea on Sunday and showed no sign of improvement in the first half, despite going in goalless at the break.
Bale looked hungry for goals and forced two fine saves out of Brad Guzan with long-range efforts, while Jermain Defoe was also denied by the American goalkeeper from a one-on-one opportunity.
Villa looked like a changed team as they resurfaced for the second half but Christian Benteke wasted two opportunities by straying offside.
Defoe showed a more clinical touch in front of goal before the hour mark as he latched on to Kyle Naughton's through ball and poked a shot through Guzan's legs to score his 10th goal of the campaign.
The goal opened the floodgates and a series of mistakes from the Villa back-line allowed Bale through on goal, and he showed good composure to round the keeper and score his first of the game.
The Welsh winger doubled his tally on 73 minutes with a low drive into the bottom corner and, with Spurs cruising, he wrapped up his first ever Premier League hat-trick on 84 minutes with a powerful finish.
Spurs have now won five out of their last seven Premier League games and have kept clean sheets in their last three, a run which has seen them rise back into the Champions League places.
It is a different story for Villa however. They now have the worst goal difference in the top flight and sit just three points above the relegation zone, making Wigan's trip to Villa Park on Saturday all the more important.

Imperiled Species Team
"This is a momentous day," said Dr. Elsa Haubold,
leader of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's
(FWC) imperiled species listing team, as she began her presentation
at the meeting on Wednesday.
Chairman Rodney Barreto praised the collaborative
teamwork, and said Sam Hamilton, former director of the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service, who died in February 2010, would be very
pleased on this passage of the new rules.
"Sam Hamilton left us too soon, but he would be
proud today," Barreto said. "I want it to go on record that this
rule will forever be known as the Sam Hamilton Listed Species
After Haubold's presentation, the Commission
approved new rules for managing threatened species, which begins a
new era for conserving fish and wildlife in Florida. The rules
describe a system whose goals are to conserve threatened species
and to ensure no fish or wildlife goes extinct in Florida because
of human action or inaction.
"I've been here since the last go-round with our
listing process," said Commissioner Kathy Barco. "And believe me,
if you'd told me we could get to this point after it being so
contentious three years ago, I never would have believed you. I am
very happy today."
David Hankla, field supervisor of the USFWS's North
Florida field office, spoke before the final, unanimous vote was
taken. He told Commissioners he wanted to recognize the outstanding
partnerships between the federal government and the state to create
rules that could become a "national standard."
"Let there be no doubt as to the FWC's intent,"
said Commissioner Brian Yablonski. "These rules are here to protect
and conserve species, period. Now the time has come to put all the
hard work to the test."
The FWC began the revision because of confusion and
controversy over how imperiled species were listed and what they
were called. After more than two and a half years of meetings with
the public and stakeholders, Florida now has a system that will
focus attention on what is needed to conserve threatened and
endangered species, rather than on what the species are called.
The new system not only comprises a list that
designates Florida's threatened species, but it provides a holistic
management system that also includes conservation actions and
goals, the public, research, policy, incentives and rules,
enforcement and other components necessary to conserve Florida's
Under the new system, all state-listed species will
be in a single listing category called "threatened." Federally
listed species will be listed as Florida federally designated
endangered and threatened species. This fall, FWC biologists,
partnering with independent biologists, will conduct scientific
reviews of all species currently on Florida's threatened and
species of special concern lists. Some of these species have never
received reviews. Based on the biological review groups' findings,
staff will make recommendations to the Commission about whether
species should be listed as state threatened in the future.
The next step, beginning in spring 2011, will
involve a public process to create management plans that contain
strategies to ensure the status of threatened species in Florida
improves. Plans also will be created for species being removed from
the list to identify actions needed to prevent declines in the
species and the need to relist. Throughout the management plan
process, the FWC will incorporate public input about needs and
concerns related to the proposed species' management.
"This has been a rewarding challenge," Haubold
said. "We've set a firm foundation and met the objectives the
Commission gave us. Now the real work begins."

I bought it for my daughter for Christmas. I ordered it on December 14th and it was delivered the 18th. I was worried I wouldn't receive it on time, but much to my surprise it made it. It was really soft and in great condition. It got even softer after I washed the set before its first use!
This is a very nice set and the price is great. I love the colors and the feel of the comforter and sheets. I purchased this for my 3 year old who loves flowers and Butterflies. She loves her new set. I would recommend this set. Cant beat the qaulity especially for the price. I love Overstock.
Granddaughter loves comforter. Good quality. I would recommend this to anyone. Also delivered on time.
I am very pleased with the product. I received it in perfect condition. The delivery was super fast. I bought a Sweet Butterfly Bed in a Bag with Sheet Set. Everything was in the bag, not a piece was missing. The colors are just amazing! I would buy again at overstock.com anytime. Thank you!
The comforter is actually quite comfortable however the sheets and pillowcases are paper thin. The pillows will not even stay inside the pillowcases because they are so thin. The items are true to color and for the price they are ok for the time being.
Item was purchased for twin beds for our twin granddaughters when they come to visit. They are fascinated by butterflies. They absolutely loved their new butterfly bedroom at New Grandma's house. Hopefully, they will not lose their interest in butterflies anytime soon.
I bought this set for my little granddaughter to use on weekends, and she loves it. It seems durable enough to hold up under a child's use, and it makes such a bright statement in her corner of the room.
Our little granddaughter loves her new bed with her pretty sheet set on it. Thank you so much for making this possible with your good prices. Thank you again.
Just received this for my daughter's room. Went to wash it before first use and there are needle holes running up the length of one side. I highly recommend not purchasing this product. You'll get what you pay for!
Its a very cute comforter, it wasn't my 1st choice but it is very bright and colorful for a young girls room

Gina DePalma, award-winning pastry chef at Mario Batali's Babbo Ristorante and Enoteca in New York City, is inspired by her Italian background to create deserts such as Ricotta Pound Cake and Honey and Pine Nut Tarts. She has written cookbooks, was named Outstanding Pastry Chef by the James Beard Foundation in 2009, and was named 2008's Best Pastry Chef by Bon Appetit Magazine. However, while DePalma was busy making her name for herself in the culinary world, she developed stage-4 ovarian cancer. This is when she combined her Italian American heritage with her can-do cowgirl attitude and founded the Cowgirl Cure Foundation for ovarian cancer awareness. You may wonder where cowgirl comes from, but DePalma's best friend gave her a cowgirl inscribed ring as a reminder to fight.
After three years, multiple surgeries, and one recurrence DePalma was recently declared cancer free, but she still fights for others affected by the disease. Her goal is wider attention and increased funding for research toward a reliable screening test and cure for ovarian cancer. DePalma draws strength from her inner cowgirl and her Italian American Heritage, not only in her fight against ovarian cancer, but to succeed as a pastry chef. To read more about DePalma and her story check out the fall issue of NIAF's magazine, Ambassador by visiting niaf.org.

Chris Rodgers hadn't heard a crowd cheering him while he wore basketball shoes in a long time, but it happened Monday in Fort Worth, Texas.
The 6-foot-7 Rodgers, who grew up in high-crime East St. Louis, Ill., before attending Creighton University on a basketball scholarship, stepped down as president of the National Association of Counties.
As a parting gift, the association — representing the 3,069 counties across America — presented him with a pair of Nike size-13 LeBron James basketball shoes.
Wearing a business suit, Rodgers smiled and donned the neon-orange shoes onstage at the national conference — a playful end to a serious year leading the organization.
Wish I had been there.
Chris arrived at Creighton in the late 1980s, five years after the departure of a player whose academic story haunted the university for years: Kevin Ross.
Ross gained national attention when he sued Creighton for educational malpractice, saying he could barely read after nearly four years at CU.
The university, which had accepted him as a comparatively low-achieving "special permission" student, admitted no liability, said it had repeatedly tried to help him and settled the suit in 1992 for $30,000.
Rodgers, now an elected Douglas County Board member, recalls his mother asking about the Ross situation when Creighton was recruiting him. Chris worked hard on academics and wanted assurances from Creighton.
"I said, 'Promise me I won't be back home after flunking out of college my freshman year,' " he said by phone Monday as the conference wrapped up.
Despite having grown up in a tough area, Chris Rodgers has made the most of education — he has two master's degrees — and circumstance.
"Like I told everybody here," he said, "the bottom line is that I've had opportunity. I owe a lot to my family, the County Board for their support, the people of my district and Creighton. Without opportunity, I wouldn't be here."
This spring, Chris and I served as co-chairmen, along with KETV general manager Ariel Roblin, of a banquet celebrating 75 years of the Omaha Star, which bills itself as "Nebraska's only black-owned newspaper."
I asked him then about his year leading the National Association of Counties — and joshed him about where he was in the line of succession to the U.S. presidency. Oops! The president of the counties association isn't in the Constitution.
Having seen him since he arrived at Creighton a quarter-�century ago, it's been fun watching him as he has developed a public persona, not in athletics but in public service.
At 44, with his most productive years ahead, he's making a mark.
I've wondered how he got to this point, especially after growing up in difficult East St. Louis.
"I didn't know it was the brokest city in America until I got away from it," Chris said. "Until I went home from college the first year, I thought it was a normal lifestyle. We didn't have all that much, but I grew up in a two-parent home and they kept me pretty level-headed."
His father, James, worked in a bottling plant and then in construction. His mother, Maggie, who died in 2008, was the administrative aide to the director of a local college campus.
"My mother told me I'd better never come home from school without a book," he said.
"One day in junior high I did, and she made me walk back to school to get one. I had to knock on the door to get someone to let me in."
After playing on a state championship high school team, he was lured to Creighton by then-coach Tony Barone, who called Chris unselfish. He started nine games as a freshman, but injuries and surgery hampered his college career.
Ah, but there was that night at Cleveland State. Rodgers came off the bench as a senior and scored a career-high 20 points, making eight of nine shots from the floor.
"I was totally in the zone," he recalled. "It was like playing in the backyard again."
He played on two conference championship teams and graduated in 1992 with a journalism degree.
|OWH Columnists
|Columnists Michael Kelly, Erin Grace and Matthew Hansen write about people, places and events around Omaha. Read more of their work here.
In 1994, working on Sen. Bob Kerrey's re-election campaign, he met Sharlon Baldwin, a graduate of Howard University in Washington, D.C. They married in 2001 and have two sons: Ellis, 8, and Evan, who turns 4 this week.
Chris served as an assistant to Omaha Mayor Mike Fahey and as an elected board member of Metropolitan Community College before he was elected to the Douglas County Board in 2004. He became active in the counties association in 2005 and rose to president last year.
Rodgers took a special interest in cybersecurity and in a program he called Smart Justice. In Douglas County, his priorities have included public health, corrections and juvenile justice.
At the Fort Worth Convention Center, he presided from Friday through Monday at a conference attended by more than 2,400 county officials. It's a diverse group, from urban to suburban to agricultural.
His full-time job is back at his alma mater as Creighton's director of community and government relations. He and his family attend Salem Baptist Church, and he appreciates the Jesuit emphasis at CU on social justice.
A Democrat, Rodgers said that when the time is right, he probably will run for another political office.
"My desire in being an elected official," he said, "is that I've always wanted a seat at the table. I've got something to offer, and I think I've moderated and grown politically more mature."
A year as head of a national association of local government officials, he said, is nothing he ever planned.
"Opportunity came, and everything fell into place."

Bass Guitar, Bassoon, Clarinet, Guitar, Saxophone
Hi my names Joel, I have been playing musical instruments since I was in the 6th grade. I'm coming up on my 11th year of playing. I started off with Clarinet, and I'm now in the Metal scene going around and gigging with some of the most talented musicians in the scene. I've played multiple festivals and hundreds of shows, but don't let my enthusiasm for guitar discourage you from taking lessons with me for other instruments! I'm classically trained in over 10 different instruments; Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Bassoon, Tenor Sax, Upright Bass, Electric Bass, Jazz Bass, Acoustic Guitar, Classical Guitar, and of course Electric Guitar; And any and all variations of those instruments; For example All types of Clarinets and all types of saxophones.
My education in music started in 6th grade on clarinet. When I got to high school I started taking a bunch of music classes. I was taking Marching band/concert band, Jazz band, and Orchestra all throughout my high school years, where our school was a consistent top competitor and finalist throughout the state of California.
*** Lesson Details ***
I have a very old school approach to teaching music. I believe that any student can become a master in their instrument of choice as long as they take the time to master the Basics. I'm a very laid back teacher, and I'm very easy to approach and talk to. I try to build my lessons around your personal likes/dislikes. I take the time to learn material for each individual student, that way students get a feeling of importance, and don't end up feeling like they are just taking text book lessons from an impersonal teacher.
*** Specialties ***
I play everything from Classical piano/guitar, to jazz bass, to Djent Death metal. I literally play everything, and i love all types of music. I do how ever specialize in rock and roll, punk, and metal.
Bass Guitar, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Piano, Upright Bass
I'm surrounded by music and musicians everyday! I spend most of my hours recording musicians in my studio, but get the most benefit out of teaching students there. I Give my students the opportunity to not only learn to master their instrument, but also the chance to learn how to be a studio musician. Students of mine have the opportunity to record any of their lessons (that we hold in my studio) as i feel most students never get the opportunity to hear themselves play. I graduated from Ball State University under the instruction of Hans Sturm, former President of the International Society of Bassists.
*** Lesson Details ***
I feel that all good playing comes from the basics. Without a strong foundation there isn't anyway to build upward. Emphasizing the fundamentals, I feel, allows for faster progress and an easier understanding of the instrument. For those already versed in the fundamentals I tend to focus more on music theory and improvisation or song writing.
In our lessons we can cover many styles: Classical, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Metal, Folk, Country, Jam. etc.
In my lessons I can any of the following cover:
Hand Technique
Bow Technique
Music Theory: Sight Reading, Reading Music, Song Writing, and Form Analysis
Bass Lines
Slap Technique
Finger Technique
Solo Works
Orchestral Works
Piano Basics
Microphone placement
Studio Etiquette
Recording Techniques
MIxing and Mastering
*** Studio Equipment ***
I have all the necessary equipment (microphones, preamps, etc.) to record my students at my studio location and my home location. I record with Pro Tools 8.
I have and can teach the following software:
Pro Tool 8
Logic 8
*** Travel Equipment ***
I have all the necessary equipments except a piano, If the student is interested in piano lesson, they must own, or be willing to rent a 88 note keyboard.
*** Specialties ***
Classical, Jazz, Rock, Funk, Latin, Metal.
Bass Guitar, Classical Guitar, Flamenco Guitar, Guitar, Mandolin, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Singing, Songwriting
I attended the Berklee School of Music in Boston, and I have a BA in Music. I am a working pro musician, regularly playing all different kinds of gigs with different bands, as well as solo, and regular gigs on TV. I have taught music lessons, and guitar in particular, for 17 years. I play all styles, but my favorites are Rock, R&B, Country, Rockabilly, and Blues (I also enjoy playing jazz, classical, and other styles as well). My main instruments are guitar (electric and acoustic) and voice, but I play keyboards, bass, mandolin, and drums also.
*** Lesson Details ***
I focus on a comprehensive approach, incorporating each student's natural abilities as well as musical interests - whether you want to learn how to play your favorite songs, learn all the skills to play with a band, or study music theory and advanced songwriting techniques, I can teach you! From playing as a hobby or to entertain friends and family to advanced college-level topics, we can cover whatever your specific goals are. Also, with student interest, I like to focus on music theory, and a deeper understanding of how songs/music work - in other words, rather than just teaching a student a song and being done with it, I like to focus on how and why the music works as it does, to enable students to put their own spin/style on it, play it in different keys, etc. I teach all skill levels, from brand-new beginners to advanced players.
Several of many possible topics of study include:
• Lead and rhythm styles and techniques -- both are essential to learn!
• How to play solos and how to improvise
• Styles and techniques of your favorite musicians/songwriters
• Playing by ear and how to learn songs just by listening to them
• Playing to accompany yourself or someone else singing
• Developing parts and techniques to play with other musicians
• Songwriting, and how to create riffs, hooks, and chord progressions
• Reading chord charts
• Music reading -- Optional, not at all essential to playing music, but a good skill to have
My teaching style is friendly and good-natured, I believe in positive encouragement and feedback, and don't believe in "guilt-tripping" or any other negativity toward students - playing music should be fun! I also love when students ask questions - I operate under the old saying that "there are no stupid questions!"
*** Studio Equipment ***
Amplifier, music stand, computer with internet connection (for playback of songs from the internet or CDs)
*** Travel Equipment ***
I provide blank manuscript/chord chart/tab paper. I expect the student to provide their own instrument (along with any related things such as amplifiers, guitar picks, strings, etc.) and to provide study books that we agree upon (if necessary). I am able to supply books if the student reimburses me at the time they receive them.
*** Specialties ***
I tailor my teaching style to each student's aptitudes and interests. All music students learn differently, and it's my challenge as a music teacher to figure out what works best for each individual student to inspire them and to keep them excited and motivated about learning an instrument.
Bass Guitar, Classical Guitar, Guitar, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Singing, Songwriting, Ukulele
Music and teaching are my two life passions. I have been teaching music for over 10 years and playing for over 15. I was born and raised in Southern California and attended Newport Harbor High School. Upon graduating, I attended Berklee College of Music in Boston where I studied Guitar and Music Business.
After graduating from Berklee, I received my Early Childhood Teacher Certification and worked as both a preschool and toddler teacher in addition to teaching music lessons. I am experienced with all age levels from the youngest children to the oldest adults. I make learning music a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone!
*** Lesson Details ***
The ultimate goal of our lessons together is to accomplish YOUR goals. There is a reason why you are drawn to music. Maybe it's songwriting. Maybe you want to become the best guitar player in the world. Maybe you want your child to learn a skill they'll have the rest of their life. Whatever it may be, we'll work together to accomplish it...and have a lot of fun along the way!
Because every student is different, there is no one set way to teach a lesson. Each lesson will be geared specifically toward you.
