Building Use & Video Conferencing
1. The library is open to all Williston or St. George based non-profit organizations for group meetings, free of charge, on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to the following conditions:
a. A library use form shall be filled out and filed with the Library Director no later than 24 hours prior to the meeting time. On this form, the organization and a named Williston resident shall assume all liability for any damages which may occur.
b. If the event may reasonably be expected to attract more than 25 people, the library may request proof of liability insurance no later than 24 hours prior to the meeting time, and the organization sponsoring the event may be asked to provide a private security officer for the event at the discretion of the Board.
c. No admission shall be charged. All advertising or publicity for the meeting shall include the statement set forth in item 3 below.
d. Facilities must be cleaned up and left in the same condition they were in before use. If applicable, the doors shall be locked, the lights turned out and the key returned promptly.
e. With permission, groups using the library may serve refreshments, but no alcoholic beverages may be consumed on library property.
f. There will be no smoking in the library at any time.
2. No organizations that are not Williston or St. George based organizations may use the library for group meetings. A "Williston-based organization" is defined as any organization in which at least 25% of its members, before the library use form was filed, were Williston residents.
3. The fact that an organization is granted permission to meet in the Dorothy Alling Memorial Library in no way constitutes endorsement by the library or the Town of Williston of the policies or beliefs of that organization.
4. DAML staff will assist videoconference users with technical support and supporting audiovisual equipment during regular library hours. Staff will advise users of the most suitable way in which to carry their videoconference and may serve as technical liaison with videoconference distributors to assure compatibility with videoconference equipment. The videoconferencing is internet based. If browser plugin software is required which is different from the ones already installed on the DAML laptop, it must be approved and can only be installed by DAML staff at least one week in advance. Users may use their own computer if they already have videoconferencing accounts (e.g. Google Hangout, Skype).
5. Videoconferencing users must agree that DAML shall not be liable for failure to perform any of its duties under the teleconferencing agreement for reasons beyond its control, including but not limited to: (a) inability to acquire or transmit, and/or record network signals and (b) any shortage, unavailability or disruption in electrical, telephone, or other utility service. Users must agree to hold DAML and its staff harmless from liability for any claim by any third party ensuing out of the performance by users or DAML of the terms of videoconference agreements. Claims covered by the aforementioned indemnification shall include, but not be limited to, claims by third parties of defamation or of violations of property rights, copyrights, or rights of privacy arising out of publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, performance, uses or disposition of the taped program co-produced by the parties under the agreement.
6. These policies may be waived at the discretion of the Library Board.

Children and Childcare ServicesCopyright: RWTH Aachen
For children and youths, Aachen has a lot to offer - the city has been awarded with the "family-friendly local authority" certificate. Apart from childcare programs in daycare centers, playschools and schools, Aachen offers child-friendly residential areas, a large number of playgrounds, football grounds, and sports facilties.
In Germany, the right kind of childcare for your children will depend on their ages, the times they need supervision, the scope of supervision they need, your home address and your budget. In order to support parents at the University, RWTH has established the Family Services Center, whose staff will be happy to organize a consultation session to devise a suitable program for your children and to answer any questions you may have. The Center provides various childcare opportunities for members of the University. The "Time to Play" brochure (in English) offers comprehensive information on the topic of childcare opportunities for RWTH staff. It is available for download on the Childcare web page.
Children under 3 years
In Germany, children under three do not have the legal right to public childcare places, and childcare institutions have difficulties to meet the high demand for care of children of this age. However, there is a wide range of public and private options open to parents with infants and toddlers. The Family Services Center has its own groups in municipal daycare centers - here, qualifed childminders supervise children under three years in small groups.
Children 3 to 6 years
In Germany, children have a legal right to a kindergarten place from the age of three until they start school at the age of six. many kindergartens are suitable for children who need all-day care, but such a all-day place cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, parents are advised to get information on daycare opportunities close to their home. The Family Services Center will be glad to assist you.
Further information by the City of Aachen: Daycare Centers/Kindertagesstätten (de)
Children over 6 years
After they begin attending school at the age of six, children may have the opportunity to take advantage of the afternoon childcare facilities provided by their school and attend a so-called "all-day school". Advice is provided by the Family Services Center.

This station is an oasis of sanity in a suicidal world.
So many people refuse to let the reality of climate change seep into their comfortable thoughts. But sealing their minds against reality will not keep it at bay. Changes are coming, and the more we close our minds and eyes the more serious it will be. We and our children and grandchildren are the hostages to the foolishness of our generation.

Game 28: Cleveland at Toronto pregame
Glancing at the American League's offensive charts, it's not hard to find the Blue Jays — they're right there near the top in most team categories. There is one area where Toronto is lacking, though. No big surprise: Jays rank 12th in the league in stolen bases.
Through 27 games, the Birds nabbed 12 bags and were only caught once. A great success rate, but not a whole heckuva lot of tries. Only Oakland and Kansas City — with 11 each — had fewer in the league. Toronto's leader? Vernon Wells with three.
So what gives?
"I might have to ask you how many they stole this time last year," said Jays manager Cito Gaston, when asked about the low robbery rate. "I think you better check that one. They might not have that many last year — I don't know."
Actually, turns out that the Go Go Jays had 22 (10 CS) through 27 games last season under former manager John Gibbons. Alex Rios, who ended with 32 swipes in '08, led the way with six and was followed by Marco Scutaro (three), John McDonald (two), Aaron Hill (two), Joe Inglett (two), David Eckstein (two), Gregg Zaun (two!), Scott Rolen (one), Buck Coats (remember him? one) and Wells (one).
One Jays scribe asked if the low stolen bases total so far this season could be a result of the strong offense. Why take risks when the group is hitting so well and producing so many runs?
"It's not about that. It's about opportunities and chances that you take," Gaston replied. "Sometimes, we run according to who's on that mound — how fast they're unloading. You see us try to steal third sometimes, because some guys get where they get a little lackadaisical paying attention to guys on second."
Despite the early numbers, Gaston said he is definitely a fan of stealing bases,
"Absolutely," he said. "The running game creates a lot of trouble for people. If you can run, you can cause a lot of problems. Instead of hitting doubles, you can run into a double or run into a triple. If you have speed, it's great."
UPDATES: LHP Ricky Romero (strained right oblique) postponed his schedule bullpen session until Tuesday. The change came because Romero has been pushed back to pitch one day after RHP Casey Janssen (right shoulder). Janssen's next start for Class A Dunedin is slated for Wednesday and Romero's first rehab start for Dunedin will be Thursday. … RHP Jesse Litsch (right elbow tightness) is on a tad slower schedule than Romero/Janssen, who could be back after two-three more Minors starts, but is only about a week behind, according to GM J.P. Ricciardi. Litsch is on a throwing program in Florida, but there is no target date for his first rehab start yet. … LHP B.J. Ryan (left trapezius tightness) threw in the bullpen on Monday and will head to Florida to begin a rehab stint with Class A Dunedin on Wednesday. There is no timetable for Ryan's return, but the plan is for him to progress up the Minor League system. … RHP Shaun Marcum (Tommy John on right elbow at end of last season) has been throwing in bullpen sessions and Ricciardi said the pitcher "might" be able to begin pitching in Minor League games some time in June. He is WAY ahead of schedule. … RHP Dustin McGowan (right shoulder) is currently playing catch, but it's still unlikely he is back this season.
GOING TO CALI: I will not be covering Tuesday's game, missing out on the big league debut for Jays lefty Brett Cecil. I'll be traveling to the West Coast for Toronto's two-game set with the Angels. So the blog will be dormant until Wednesday. I won't be making the trek to Oakland. Instead, will be spending a couple extra days in Anaheim to visit some family.

In the last 3-4 days, we've had 3 pitchers pitch no-hitters into the 6th or 7th innings.
First was David Purcey on his first start in AAA who went into the 6th without giving up a hit. (although 5 walks still leaves a lot to be desired). It will be interesting to see how Purcey does in his next couple of starts.
Then two yesterday with Brian Tallet here and Marc Rzepczynski in New Hampshire both going into the 6th inning.
If it's a disease, I hope Cecil caught it and does the same today. lol
Well, I guess it's not contagious GS. Unfortunately I was at work so I couldn't watch today's game but what a line by Cecil. This team has me believing that the playoffs are a possibility and to think we still have the returns of Janssen, Romero, Litsch and possibly Marcum to look forward to.
Of all the young pitchers I've had the pleasure to watch debut over the years, Brett Cecil impressed me the most with his start today.
Others have had more velocity, better change ups, better sliders, but Cecil at a tender age of 22 is a better pitcher than any of the others I've seen.
Why-well he changes speeds on almost every pitch he has. I watched him throw 4 sinkers to a batter and each one was at a different speed from 90 to 78 mph. Cecil did that with sinkers, sliders and change ups. He even varies speed on his fastball from 86 to 92-these are huge differences for a hitter.
Front of the rotation type stuff. Cecil is going to be something special, the Jays are right to limit his innings this year, stretching him our slowly.
He reminds me a lot of Jimmy Key-another crafty lefty, but I think Cecil's going to be better, if he stays healthy. Of course, one start does not make a career, but if he pitches like he did today each time out, it will be a good one.
Congratulations to Scott Richmond for winning the Gillette AL Rookie of the month award. Also congratulations to Ricky Romero for finishing 3rd.
It is with mixed emotions that I make this post. Sadness because last night our poster Garryguy (Mr. Garry Brigham) passed away in his sleep at the very young age of 64. I for one will miss his friendship and comments here and I'm sure others will as well.
Some could question Garry's comments, since we all have highly opinionated thoughts on our Jays, but no one could ever question Garry's love for the Jays and the game itself.
The other emotion is gladness, since Garry passed peacefully and I'm sure is sitting in the dugout each time the Jays play from here on in.
If you wish to express your condolences to the family go to this url, obituaries and click on Garry Brigham.
Check Out Fabio Castro
This kid is starting to convince me he?s the real deal. He went 7 innings last night in his 2nd start in Vegas, gave up 2 hits, 2 walks, struck out 3 and gave up no runs. This was his 6th start of the season between AA and AAA and 4 of these starts have been shutouts.
This year in 6 starts over 34 innings he?s given up a total of 5 runs, walked 8, struck out 32 and has an opposing batter BA of a minuscule .185.
Looks to me that we have an embarrassment of high quality left hand pitching prospects with Cecil, Purcey, Romero and Mills . Nice problem to have.
By the way, there's more prospects en route as well. New Hampshire, our AA affiliate is leading the Eastern league with a team era of 2.92.
That is sad news about Garryguy. His contributions to this blog will be missed.
Thank you for letting us know about Garry , he will certainly be missed
It's nice to see Cito starting to get recognition as this article in SI points out, with Cito being ranked number 6 in "Best Managers."
6. Cito Gaston, Blue Jays: It's really a shame the 65-year-old Gaston was out of the game for a ridiculous 11 years. It could have been because Gaston doesn't exactly light a room up with his personality, though closet racism on the part of some can't be ruled out as a cause. Whatever the reason, it was baseball's loss. It seems the Jays always play best when he's their manager.

Abstract A continuing challenge in hydraulic fracturing of tight gas formations is associated with remediation of formation damage caused by fluid invasion into the porous media. Numerous studies documenting the use of complex nanofluids and surfactants to remediate formation damage have been reported. Recent publications have demonstrated that complex nanofluid additives resulted in lower pressures to displace injected frac fluids over conventional surfactants, and led to greater enhancement of gas and water production. These findings were also confirmed by several recent statistical analyses that took into consideration differences in the properties of treated wells. Many field case studies and supplementary laboratory data have illustrated benefits of complex nanofluid treatment over conventional surfactants. While these publications describe the successes of complex nanofluid treatment, the influence that the formulation composition has on its performance has not been fully investigated. In the present study, we prepared complex nanofluids with different chemical compositions and examined their performance in fluid recovery tests using columns packed with sand, ceramic proppant, and shale, as well as their ability to enhance permeability of sandstone cores to gas. We have established that performance of complex nanofluids in these applications was dependent on the amount of microemulsifed solvent in the original formulations and that optimal performance across all applications was achieved with a complex nanofluid formulation with a near-balanced composition.

Press Speculates Batman Shooter Must Have Played Video Games; They're Right: He Loved Guitar Hero
from the unless-you-want-to-blame-guitar-hero-i-guess deptI'm going to assume that most of us are by now aware of the tragedy that occurred late last week, when an Aurora, Colorado theatre showing the new Batman movie was allegedly shot up by a James Holmes for whatever reasons people like him have for this kind of depravity. I'll refrain from discussing any details about the shooting, since that's not really apropros for Techdirt. However, I did notice something that seemed worth pointing out.
First, Reason has been keeping a running list of all the things politicians and media pundits are blaming for the shooting (hat-tip to E. Zachary Knight for the link). For those of you keeping score at home, based on the aggregate blame-machine that that article has counted up, the shooting can so far be blamed on: The Tea Party, a lack of Christianity throughout the country, bullying, Star Trek (not kidding), or Occupy Wall Street. And, of course, video games.
The organization responsible for the salvo against gaming is CNN, via Pat Brown, who stated his stance simply:
"Teenage psychopaths get inspired by [video games] and want to make it real"Interestingly, I was somewhat heartened (as much as one can be in a situation like this) that I had not seen such a rush to judgment against violent video games in this case, particularly considering that this whole tragedy occurred mere miles from Columbine, where violent video games were skewered over a decade ago. But maybe there is a good reason we aren't seeing violent games being blamed in this case: because suspect James Holmes apparently didn't play them. He is apparently known for playing video games, but not of the violent variety (via TMZ):
"one of James Holmes' classmates at the University of California at Riverside played Guitar Hero with the shooter all the time, and "for hours."The point that needs to be made is that we're likely not going to understand what motivated James Holmes to do what he did for a long time, if at all, and the rush for media members and political forces to judge a tragic situation through their own biased viewpoints rather than to simply wait for the facts to bear themselves out is dangerous.
The male student is telling friends he is "shocked," never having had a clue that Holmes had a propensity for violence. It's an interesting side note, because people with violent tendencies often act them out in various ways, and video games are definitely an outlet."

Sen. Rand Paul cut a six-figure check to the U.S. Treasury on Wednesday in an effort to do his part to put a tiny chip in the federal debt.
The Kentucky Republican returned $600,000 in funds he saved from his Senate office budget in the last year, the Louisville Courier-Journal reported.
"It's the only budget I control," Paul said at a news conference in Louisville. "It's not enough, but it's a start."
The $600,000 — about 17 per cent of his 3.5 million office budget — is on top of another $500,000 Paul returned to the Treasury last year, according to CNN. Paul said the total unspent money he's returned to the federal government amounts to $1.1 million.
"We watch every purchase," Paul said. "We watch what computers we buy, what paper we buy, the ink cartridges. We treat the money like it's our money, or your money, and we look at every expenditure."
The senator, a Tea Party favourite, noted, "We are frugal from top to bottom."

God Is Love
31243, Hymns, God Is Love, no. 87
1. Earth, with her ten thousand flow'rs,
Air, with all its beams and show'rs,
Heaven's infinite expanse,
Sea's resplendent countenance—
All around and all above
Bear this record: God is love.
2. Sounds among the vales and hills,
In the woods and by the rills,
Of the breeze and of the bird,
By the gentle murmur stirred—
Sacred songs, beneath, above,
Have one chorus: God is love.
3. All the hopes that sweetly start
From the fountain of the heart,
All the bliss that ever comes
To our earthly human homes,
All the voices from above
Sweetly whisper: God is love.

I like this site, but it seems that the old site SSG, was more active with more articles and content.... Or, is it just me??
I like this site, but it seems that the old site SSG, was more active with more articles and content.... Or, is it just me??
I don't know if you were aware of this, but there are two sections to this site. Sirius Buzz and Satellite Standard. Up in the header there is an investment tab and a news tab. The investment tab contains most of what you would traditionally find on SSG. The news tab is more mainstream content.
You can access each section simply by clicking on the appropriate tab, OR, you can use differing web addresses to land on a particular tab.
If you want to land on the general news - www.siriusbuzz.com
If you want to land on the investment section - www.satellitestandard.com
Some articles appear in BOTH sections, while other do not. We encourage you to browse through the site, and value your comments.
As for my writing - I have been quite busy of late, but make efforts to keep pace with what is happening. Most of my content can be found in the investment tab.

I think our posts have cooled off a bit over the last week BUT if you look back a couple of weeks ago we were posting 5 or so times per day. Maybe its just me but I think there has been a calm in the storm.
Also...don't forget a lot of the stock reports and commentary are being posted in the forums now
Charles LaRocca
SiriusBuzz Founder
Thanks for the reply, I guess it did just cool off a bit..... I just can't get enough info on Satellite radio and the merger. I do read your site everyday.
BTW I did NOT notice the investors tab either, duh.
Keep up your great coverage,
Jim ...(Mrwirez)
Thanks for the input, and I hope that having two tabs based on news type is something you find beneficial.
Also, as my partner mentioned, keep an eye on the forums. Some items such as analyst reports are often posted in the forums.
We are trying to build a very user friendly site that gives readers the ability to get the news they want, as well as discuss satellite radio.
Your suggestions are appreciated.

- The Organized Family Historian by Ann Carter Fleming. I have written several articles based off of this book in the past. As far as I'm concerned, it's a must have in any serious genealogy library. This book will help you find a way to organize and preserve all your family history, from heirlooms, photos, documents to your family tree.
- The Unpuzzling Your Past WORKBOOK by Emily Ann Croom. I believe she also has a book that goes with this that will teach you even more, but I don't have it as I already have so many other books. But the work sheets in this book will help you get organized in your paperwork, do your research in an orderly fashion and organize you family history.
- Becoming an Accredited Genealogist by Karren Clifford, AG. Though I have chosen to work toward my Certified Genealogist, CG, I found this book exceptionally helpful early on in my learning to do genealogy research and do it correctly, as well as writing reports correctly.
- Evidence! Citation & Analysis for the Family Historian by Emily Shown Mills. Even if you do not pursue genealogy on a professional level, it is still imperative that you understand the importance of sourcing your information. Just because someone states an event as fact, does not make it fact, unless it is backed up by sources and documentation. This book will teach you how to source different documents types as well as how to analysis them.
- Red Book by Alice Eichholz, PhD. Another must have. This book will help you as you move from one state to the next or from one county to the next, or as boundaries changed that effect your research.
My interest in genealogy started when I was a child. My dad's mom use to tell me that the family history book had been burned in a fire, but she knew we were related to Daniel Boone. I never forgot that, nor have I ever found the connection haha. Along with doing genealogy I spend a lot of my time doing photo restorations, namely for victims of Sandy through Care for Sandy, and also of family photos that I add to the books I write on our family history.

Recommended Reading
With the launch of "Who do you think you are?" on NBC, I have seen a lot more activity in genealogy. I have gotten more requests for "HELP" and "What do you suggest?" So I thought I'd post some suggestions I have for helpful reading material if you are just beginning your search, or began a while back and are feeling overwhelmed with too much information.

A federal judge has ruled against the organizer of a naked bike ride scheduled for next week, according to the voiceofsandiego.org.
Judge Larry Burns said that freedom of speech couldn't be used as a rationale to put the San Diego's anti-nudity law on hold.
The judge said the city has "a substantial interest and right to regulate public nudity," according to Gina Coburn, a spokeswoman for the City Attorney's Office.
Bicyclists filed a lawsuit, hoping to overturn San Diego's anti-nudity ordinance in time for San Diego's World Naked Bike Ride.
According to an article posted by the voiceofsandiego.org, 20-year-old Sarah Bush has been helping to organize the bike ride, which may take place on June 12. Though a city ordinance prohibits public nudity, Bush and her attorney intend to file a request for an injunction to allow the nude bike ride to take place, the online news site reported.
The World Naked Bike Ride is a protest event slated for more than 25 cities worldwide that is meant to call attention to oil dependence.
With slogans like "As Bare As You Dare" and "More A@# Less Gas," the events goals, according to its fliers and publications, are to promote car-free lifestyles and encourage people to love their bodies.
The event, which is scheduled to begin Saturday, June 12, at 5 p.m. at Evolution Fast Food on Fifth Avenue, has 70 confirmed guests on Facebook. In the event description on the social-media site, organizers said nudity is not required to participate in the event.
"Wear as little as you can while still feeling comfortable about it," the description instructs riders.
The city's nudity laws prohibit the exposure of female breasts "at or below the areola," genitalia and the natal cleft (butt crack). People who violate those laws can face a $500 fine, six months in jail, or both, on misdemeanor charges.
"The city's position is that the law will be enforced," Gina Coburn, a spokeswoman for the City Attorney's Office, told the voiceofsandiego.org by e-mail. "The law does not prohibit bike riding. It does prohibit public nudity."
A police official said that officers will on Fifth Avenue on June 12 to monitor the situation.

Fergus Henderson's Custard Tart
With a wobbly center comprised of little more than egg yolks and cream, this sweet custard tart from Nose to Tail is rich and simple, dusted with nutmeg and speckled with vanilla bean.
Excerpted from Nose to Tail by Fergus Henderson (Ecco). Copyright © 2013. Photographs by Jason Lowe.
- Yield:serves 10 to 12
- Active time: 30 minutes
- Total time:several hours, including baking and cooling
- 1/2 quantity of Treacle Tart pastry (ingredients follow)
- 10 egg yolks
- 1 vanilla pod
- 3 cups double cream
- 1 cup caster sugar
- 1 nutmeg
- Treacle Tart Pastry
- 11 ounces unsalted butter
- 1 cup 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 1 large egg
- 5 large egg yolks
- Scant 1/4 cup strong white flour
First make the pastry. Cream the butter and sugar together until white and fluffy. Lightly beat together the egg and egg yolks, then add them to the mixture a little at a time in order to prevent curdling. Sift in the flour and mix until just incorporated. The pastry will be very soft, so wrap it in plastic wrap and leave it in the fridge overnight. Separate into halves before wrapping, as this recipe only requires a half quantity of pastry.
Take the pastry out of the fridge and let it soften at room temperature for about 1-2 hours. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured work surface about 1 inch thick and use to line a 12-inch loose-bottomed tart tin. Chill for 1-2 hours. Cover the pastry case with plastic wrap, fill with baking beans and lightly fold the cling film over the top of the beans. Bake in an oven preheated to 375F until the pastry is golden brown around the edges. Remove the plastic wrap and beans and return the pastry case to the oven until golden brown. Lightly beat one of the egg yolks. As soon as the pastry case comes out of the oven, brush all over the inside with the beaten egg to seal any little holes.
For the filling, slit the vanilla pod lengthways and scrape out the seeds. Put the seeds and pod in a saucepan with the double cream and bring slowly to the boil to infuse the cream with the vanilla. In a large bowl, mix the 9 remaining egg yolks and the sugar together just for a minute with a whisk. Then pour the boiling cream onto the mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling. Pass through a fine sieve. If there is lots of froth on top, just spoon it off and discard. Pour the custard mix into the baked pastry case, then grate some nutmeg on top (do not use ready-ground nutmeg). Place carefully in the oven without spilling any of the filling down the sides of the pastry case; if you do, you will end up with soggy pastry, which is a no-no for custard tart. Bake at 250F for about 1 hour, until there is only a small wobble in the center of the tart. Take out of the oven and place on a cooling rack.
Serve warm or cold and, when in season, with some fresh raspberries.

Slovakia in the Whirl of Globalization
In the institutional frame of international relations fundamental changes are caused by globalization, where transnational corporations have an important and decisive point. States open their economies, liberate the international trade and capital market in order to spread their international economics relations. At the moment the Slovak economy is to a great extend depended on transnational corporations, so it is a part of globalization processes and is facing the necessity to be prepared for it. An arm in arm globalization is accompanied by regionalization. From this point of view has Slovakia notable disparity and restraints that will have to be solved.

Dir/scr: Renaud Gauthier. Canada. 2013. 80mins
This coming together of 1970s disco and horror is an enjoyable oddball genre blending, fun while it lasts but ultimately too niche to make much of an impact, unless with horror fans. The film, which had its world premiere at Montreal's Fantasia Film Festival, is likely to feature on home entertainment as well as proving a popular late night programming slot at other genre festivals.
The pleasure of Discopath – a great title in itself – is more in the style and recreation (both in terms of sound and vision) of the late 1970s then it is in the knowingly over-the-top giallo-style splatter effects.
When Duane Lewis (Jeremie Earp-Lavergne), a shy and sexually inexperienced New Yorker, finds his homicidal tendencies triggered by the throbbing of disco out on the dance-floor at the Seventh Heaven club, he kills a young woman who had shown an interest in him. He decides to head to the more peaceful climes of Montreal where he takes on a new identity, works as a janitor at an all-girls school and wears protective hearing to try and block out the provocative music.
When two students strip down to their underwear to practice their kissing a dose of music drives him to distraction and soon he is killing them with shards of broken records and heading off on a rage that sees him kidnap one of their teachers. With cops hot on his tail – led by stoical NY detective Jack Stephens (Ivan Freud) – it is only a matter of time before he gets his comeuppance, handily at a funeral…where he happens to be dressed as a nun.
The pleasure of Discopath – a great title in itself – is more in the style and recreation (both in terms of sound and vision) of the late 1970s then it is in the knowingly over-the-top giallo-style splatter effects. Highpoints are John Londono's impressive cinematography and Bruce Cameron's moody and throbbing score, often used for pastiche as much as full-blooded horror.

Iceberg cowboys
Every year enormous glacial shards drift past Newfoundland's coastline. That is the time when Captain Ed Kean and his crew go hunting for the precious ice using lassos and guns.
Icebergs have to be navigated around: All mariners, whether they sail the Atlantic, the Pacific or around Cape Horn know this golden nautical rule. Icebergs are a lethal threat. They can slice open steel ship's hulls. They capsize and fragment. When thousands of tons of ice crash into the water, they pull down every ship in close proximity. Icebergs are unpredictable.
However, they are Captain Kean's passion. Ed Kean is a 59-year-old Newfoundlander, a giant with broad shoulders and a big belly. And he is not one for circumnavigating icebergs. Rather, he and his crew hunt them with lassos, nets and guns. Every year in the springtime, when the island off Canada's east coast is still under a thick blanket of snow, icebergs start drifting right past Kean's front door, close to St John's, the island's capital. That is when Kean knows he will have to be on his way soon.
The icebergs break off from the glaciers in Greenland, like the Petermann Glacier, which measures more than one thousand square kilometers. Their journey through "Iceberg Alley" takes several months. By the time the white giants appear off the coast of Newfoundland, they have traveled hundreds of kilometers in the currents of the Northern Atlantic. These glacial formations do not just look fascinating – sometimes they are flat like mesas, at other times wildly jagged – but are also exceedingly valuable. There is hardly any water on earth that is as pure as that of icebergs. It has never trickled through sand or layers of soil and has never been in contact with fertilizer. The glacier it originates from is made up of the unpolluted precipitation that fell in the Artic Circle thousands of years ago and froze. This is why glacier water is a commodity that can be monetized – if you catch it quickly enough. After their trip through "Iceberg Alley," it is normally the end of the road for the glacial fragments: they melt in the sun of the short Canadian summer and disappear into the ocean forever.
When there are waves, icebergs are as dangerous as dynamite. But don't they look stunning?
That is why Ed Kean has to be quick. This year, he wants to supply 1.2 million liters of the precious raw material to the Canadian Iceberg Vodka Corporation and make C$500,000 (roughly 345,000 euros). The drinks manufacturer's business idea is simple: making vodka, rum and gin using water from one of the purest sources on the planet. The distillery, which is headquartered in Toronto and was founded in 1995, today has overall sales of several million dollars. The success of the company, which runs a bottling plant in St. John's, the capital of the province, could not have come at a better time for the islanders. Most of the approximately 500,000 inhabitants used to make a living from fishing, either directly or indirectly, but some 20 years ago sales of cod nose-dived. The fish stocks in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Newfoundland were almost depleted, in addition to which the competition from China pushed prices down. Ed Kean, whose family had been in the fishing trade for five generations, was also affected. So why not exploit the iceberg water that drifts along the coastline. In the beginning he worked with blue plastic barrels, which only held a few thousand liters. But then demand skyrocketed due to the quality of the vodka. The captain invested in bigger barrels. To this day, Kean is the distillery's exclusive supplier. He uses a hydraulic excavator and water tanks to harvest from the iceberg. According to him, however, after paying out for the crew, diesel and repairs, he does not make a large profit. Nevertheless, it seems to be lucrative enough for him to set sail again every year.
Maybe he is in it for the thrill. One day in August the captain spots a gleaming white iceberg on the horizon and rounds up his crew. Phil Kennedy, 52, is responsible for filling the water tanks. Dennis Greening, 39, is the mechanic. John Hoddinott, 42, pilots the dinghy, which will be used to catch the iceberg. They are all Newfoundlanders and all men who have "tried their hand at every job out there," as Hoddinott puts it. They probably made more money working as hunters, fishermen, roofers and on offshore oilrigs, but these jobs are not as adrenalin-fuelled as iceberg hunting.
In their small home port of Port Union, the men clamber aboard an old fishing trawler – the Green Waters. They also start the engines of a barge, with which the water is to be transported later. Then they set sail. They will now be hunting for ice from dawn until dusk each day – weather and ice permitting. The men are often at sea for weeks, sometimes even months. Every now and then, they land in small bays to pick up supplies.
The freight barge is 55 meters long and is tethered to the Green Waters. It contains six tanks, each of which can hold 200,000 liters of water. That's 1.2 million liters in total! If you believe Kean, this only represents one percent of all the icebergs that drift past Newfoundland each year. The captain is wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap. He scans the ocean, one arm on the helm. The trawler steadily advances at a speed of nine knots, gliding past lighthouses and green hills. The cries of seagulls penetrate the hatch leading to the bridge, waves are splashing and the ship's engine chugs along softly.
Seals surface in the water, their skins glistening. They look over inquisitively and disappear again. The curved backs of dolphins and minke whales look like geometric apparitions in the chaos of the waves. All of a sudden, Kean sounds the ship's horn and yells something that must mean "iceberg ahead."
Ice poses a danger for cruisers and oilrigs, but it is also a very profitable business
It looks like a hallucination when one of the giants pushes itself along Newfoundland's panoramic landscape, getting increasingly bigger as it approaches the Green Waters. Kean's eyes have not been deceiving him: Just off the shoreline, a roughly 300-meter long iceberg has run aground and fragmented into numerous pieces: millions of tons of ice, just a few miles ahead. Kean steers the boat closer. Every move is now executed with bated breath. He has to maintain a safe distance because the ship's hull must not be breached. With the aid of a crane, the crew lowers the dinghy into the water. It is a tiny wooden vessel, only three meters long, but boasting a 65 horsepower engine. This is John Hoddinott's big moment. The lanky, wiry pilot of the "speedboat" now has to keep the bow of the barge at a 90-degree angle to the iceberg. It is the only way for Kean to claw away some of the icy spoils from the white giant with the mounted excavator.
The tiny vessel is rocking precariously in front of the wall of ice, which is as tall as a building, and which waves crash into. Spray and jets of water shoot up. Suddenly the gentle maritime wind turns into an icy breeze. In his boat, Hoddinott reaches for the rope, pilots the small vessel around the entire iceberg, and catches it with a lasso that is a kilometer long and as thick as a finger. It is the only way to moor the barge to the frozen giant. That is why Ed Kean and his crew are also called "iceberg cowboys." Kean starts scraping off the frozen commodity from the top of the iceberg with the excavator shovel and throws it on the conveyor belt, which transports it to the water tanks. If the barge is in danger of slipping off, Hoddinott drives up to its bow with the dinghy in order to push it back into position, while maintaining a safe distance from the white colossus, which could tear itself apart at any moment.
The men succeed, the iceberg has been conquered. Now they only have to wait until the ice melts. What a triumph! They have managed to collect almost a whole season's harvest in only three weeks. However, they do not take a breather. Kean's people carry on with their hunt. They are now targeting a smaller specimen. This time they do not want to employ the barge, which is difficult to tether to the narrower icebergs. Instead they will use a gun and hooks. The small iceberg shimmers eerily in the riflescope of Kean's repeating rifle.
It seems surreal, almost innocent, like a white ball that a fluke has pushed into the waters off Newfoundland. But when the waters are less than calm, these icebergs are like "small pieces of dynamite," says Kean. One should not be fooled, he warns. Kean knows that approximately only ten percent of the iceberg are visible above the water line ¬– its proverbial tip. The vast majority of it is underwater – and indeed, when you look more closely, you see its turquoise gleam. It is this part that could easily tear a hole into the side of the ship.
Trinity Bay, Bonavista Bay and Conception Bay are Kean's iceberg hunting grounds. It is a savage and primeval world, but breathtakingly beautiful. There are no beach promenades, no chic restaurants, no marinas. This world belongs to Nature, and to the seafarers. Their wooden houses on the shoreline – painted in hues of green blue and red – look as though they have been casually sprinkled across the landscape. Behind them are dark forests where black bears and moose roam. Like the sea, these too, are hunting grounds.
The iceberg, which is now being targeted by Kean and his crew has a pointed tip. It is 15 meters tall and about ten meters long. A sheet of floating ice permeated by black and sapphire streaks. It is now only 30 meters from the ship. Kean points his gun, closes his left eye and takes aim at the right-hand edge of the iceberg. He adjusts his scope and waits. Then he pulls the trigger, and the shots tear through the silence of the bay. Several white pieces shoot up from the side of the iceberg, but nothing else happens. The mountain of ice has not moved a millimeter. Kean reloads and fires another volley. After three shots the iceberg releases a larger chunk, which thunders into the waters below. With the dinghy, hooks and a trawl net, the men make their way across and bring their loot onboard. This ice will not be supplied to the vodka company, but to smaller customers: to lobster fishermen and corner shops, which utilize the ice to cool their goods and sell it on for use at bars and parties. Kean also has plans for another business as a sideline: bottled water. The first batches have already been produced.
Captain Kean's latest business idea: bottled iceberg water
Having set course for home in Port Union, he is at the helm of the Green Waters. The ocean, which he has been crisscrossing for years, glistens in the evening sun. He looks at the panorama of the dark green hills in front of him: a time to pause, to be calm. Kean's gaze wanders to another iceberg. "They are stunning, aren't they?" he says. Then he falls silent. He knows that at some point, he will have to give up his job and sell the Green Waters. He is now 59 years old and the hunt for icebergs is exhausting, dangerous and time-consuming. But at this point, retirement still seems a very long way off.

Vintage Pilates - a traditional Pilates Studio – works for your advantage … to the core. This valuable gem of a studio, the brainchild of Sandy Shimoda & Karen Frischmann is probably LA's best kept Pilates secret.
"Vintage" in this particular case meaning traditional. Traditional meaning inherited or handed down. So … here you will learn the pure, unpolluted, undiluted exercises as intended and directly handed down by the inventor of Pilates – Joseph Pilates.
Joseph Pilates' genius was discovering that poor alignment and muscle tension are the root cause of many health problems. Joe trained boxers, businesspeople, firemen and opera singers to have better fitness, posture, coordination, freedom of movement and overall wellbeing. At Vintage Pilates, their mission is Joe's mission.
Uber instructor, Jay Grimes studied with Joseph Pilates himself in the mid sixties and continued with his wife Clara until her death. He is the only surviving student of the maestro teaching in Los Angeles … and he can be found as Director of Vintage Pilates.
Karen Frischmann has been teaching Pilates since 1996 and was the founder of the famed West Hollywood studio Absolution.
Sandy Shimoda has taught movement for 30 years, including for such Broadway hits as The Lion King and Miss Saigon, and began teaching Pilates in 2002.
Together they formed Vintage Pilates in November 2010.
Just so you know, this is the place Pilates teachers from all over the world flock to, to perfect their craft.
With Pilates studios' now on virtually every street corner, you might ask "What makes Vintage Pilates so valuable or special?"
Well … first of all, Vintage Pilates is the only place that first generation master teacher Jay Grimes parks his Cadillac (not the car – but a piece of Pilates equipment) and under his eagle eye, he ensures that his teachers teach you Pilates the way it was intended. Most other studios want to modify the genius inventor's method – that's like wanting to modify Shakespeare's writing to modernize it! Ridiculous!
But more impressive than that is the fact that at this little unassuming studio on Sawtelle Boulevard, you will find no fancy shingle, celebrity endorsements, annoying paparazzi or any trendsetters … just followers of the classical Pilates method invented some 80 years ago. Vintage Pilates is where you come to exercise, learn and the focus solely on you and your body. Vintage Pilates does everything to ensure what's best for you and your body. Isn't that why you exercise in the first place?
And most valuable of all is the Vintage philosophy …
Although some clients benefit from ongoing private sessions, Sandy and Karen aim to teach you your regime in 10 -15 sessions. They are not looking to milk you for endless sessions but feel it is vital that you understand what you are doing and make sure you know how to do it right – all by yourself. The ultimate goal is to be ready for the "Real Deal" where students work out independently without a teacher. Vintage Pilates offers private sessions and the "VP Class" to get you ready for the "Real Deal" - modeled after Joe Pilates' original studio in New York where students worked independently, and teachers roamed the floor to assist only when necessary. This gives students the chance to train their bodies through practice and find a natural rhythm and coordination in their workout, at an affordable price.
All the instructors here: Jay, Karen, Sandy, Rudy, Dena, Lucy & Nicole are top notch, first class Pilates experts, … not interested in fads or gimmicks or keeping you hooked on them. They are only interested in your body's best interest – and that is a rare quality in this town …
Don't you think?
Having worked with all of them this is how I would describe them:
Jay Grimes: THE TASKMASTER – Although he doesn't take any new clients, he is in the studio making sure that clients and teachers are up to standard.
Karen Frischmann: MOTHER SUPERIOR - don't be fooled by her gentle nature – 3 reps of doing it right and you'll feel it in the morning!
Sandy Shimoda: THE HEADMISTRESS - is driven to make sure you graduate - she will make sure you learn your routine and will not stand for mediocre form.
Rudy Gizzi: FAIRY GODFATHER - He gently pushes & pulls you in the right direction for your body's highest good.
Dena Drotar: FAIRY GODMOTHER - She will grant your wishes for good health by guiding you into honest hard work.
Lucy Martin: THE MOTIVATOR - Her body is an inspiration and just looking at it should motivate you to want the best for yourself.
Nicole Marcione: THE VALEDICTORIAN – She has studied hard and she knows her stuff. Best not to challenge her lead.
So far, in less than 15 sessions, I can vouch that I not only feel a difference but also am beginning to see a huge difference! My posture and body tone have vastly improved … Not to mention my ass … looks like Vintage Pilates is taking the L out of my flat ass:)
Look out J. Lo!
In closing, if you are interested in learning Pilates why not learn it right?

Salaam and Greetings of Peace:
"Truly, to Allah we belong, and truly to Him we shall return." – Surah Al-Baqarah, Verse 156.
Imam Abu Hamid al-Ghazali woke up early one morning as usual, said his prayers, and then inquired what day it was. His younger brother, Ahmad al-Ghazali, replied,"Monday." At that, the Imam asked him to bring his white shroud, kissed it, stretched himself full length and said, "Lord, I obey willingly." And he breathed his last.
Underneath his head rest they found the following verse; composed by him, probably, during the night.
Say to my friends, when they look upon me dead
Weeping for me and mourning me in sorrow
Do not believe that this corpse you see is myself
In the name of God, I tell you, it is not I,
I am a spirit, and this is naught but flesh
It was my abode and my garment for a time.
I am a treasure, by a talisman kept hid,
Fashioned of dust, which served me as a shrine,
I am a pearl, which has left its shell deserted,
I am a bird, and this body was my cage
Whence I have now flown forth and it is left as a token
Praise to God, who hath now set me free
And prepared for me my place in the highest of the heavens,
Until today I was dead, though alive in your midst.
Now I live in truth, with the grave-clothes discarded.
Today I hold converse with the saints above,
With no veil between, I see God face to face.
I look upon Loh-i-Mahfuz* and therein I read
Whatever was and is and all that is to be.
Let my house fall in ruins, lay my cage in the ground,
Cast away the talisman, it is a token no more
Lay aside my cloak, it was but my outer garment.
Place them all in the grave, let them be forgotten,
I have passed on my way and you are left behind
Your place of abode was no dwelling place for me.
Think not that death is death, nay, it is life,
A life that surpasses all we could dream of here,
While in this world, here we are granted sleep,
Death is but sleep, sleep that shall be prolonged
Be not frightened when death draweth near,
It is but the departure for this blessed home
Think of the mercy and love of your Lord,
Give thanks for His Grace and come without fear.
What I am now, even so shall you be
For I know that you are even as I am
The souls of all men come forth from God
The bodies of all are compounded alike
Good and evil, alike it was ours
I give you now a message of good cheer
May God's peace and joy for evermore be yours.
Ya Haqq!
Note: *Loh-i Mahfuz, or Umm-al Kitab, is the Preserved Tablet, which has inscribed on it the original attributes of each creation, its function and relationship to other creations in the Universe.
– Originally from the Jannah.org website.

Game Warden Field Notes
Nov. 8, 2012
Media Contact: TPWD News, Business Hours, 512-389-8030
Note: This item is more than seven years old. Please take the publication date into consideration for any date references.
The following items are compiled from recent Texas Parks and Wildlife Department law enforcement reports.
- An Oily Situation
A Reeves County game warden received a call from Ward County regarding some illegal hunting taking place near an oil rig. The caller said the three out-of-state hunters were driving the oilfield roads shooting dove from their vehicle. The warden responded to the call that night after the men got off work and saw them cruising the roads, but not shooting. After the vehicle disappeared, the warden waited at the rig to talk to the three men and confirm the hunting story. After some discussion, the three men admitted to shooting dove on the oilfield roads with a pellet gun. The men were charged with hunting without a license and hunting dove by illegal means.
- Learning by Example
While serving an arrest warrant in Lubbock County, two South Plains game wardens heard a distant shotgun blast and decided to investigate. The wardens found a maize field with several guided hunters and a hunting guide, all hunting. When the wardens contacted the group, the guide tried diverting their attention from a large pile of doves and a certain shotgun. After some questioning by the wardens, the guide admitted to having shot more than his daily bag limit of dove with an unplugged shotgun. Citations were issued.
- Covering for a Cousin
A Williamson County game warden was patrolling a new section of a farm-to-market road that dissects several ranches that is not yet open to the public when he spotted a vehicle inside a ranch with a subject standing nearby drinking a beer. The warden watched the individual for about 15 minutes before he heard a gunshot in the distance beyond the truck. When the subject spotted the warden, he immediately got out his phone and appeared to calling someone. The warden started his truck and continued down the road giving the subject the perception that he was leaving. After waiting down the road for a while, the warden returned to the location where the subject was parked and spotted another male with his son near the truck shooting at several doves well after sunset. The warden parked his truck and walked several hundred yards to make contact with the hunters. When he arrived, the hunter with his son was no longer there. The lone hunter was in compliance with state laws and told the warden that the other man was his cousin and was heading back to the house. The man was stalling answering questions about the other hunter as if buying time for his cousin's escape. The warden was able to make it back to his patrol truck, drive to the front of the property, and find the hunter before he got away. As the warden tried to conduct a compliance check on the man, he denied hunting and became verbally aggressive. The warden advised Williamson County of the situation and requested back up. When two deputies arrived, the man became more compliant, admitted to hunting and said he hid his shotgun in his cousin's truck. It was discovered that the man not only shot at a dove after sunset, but he did not have a hunting license, or identification.
- Can I Keep Him?
After receiving a call from the Travis County Sheriff's Office, a game warden responded to a Lakeway residence shortly after midnight where the tenants possessed live white-winged dove in an oversized cage. The birds had been brought to the home three or four months ago as nestlings in order to nourish them for release. When asked why they weren't released, one of the residents said that she had grown attached to them. A citation was issued after the release of the game birds.
- Game Fish Aren't Bait
A Dimmit County game warden was checking some fishermen along a recently flooded river and noticed a man sitting by himself and not wanting to look his way. After the warden contacted the man and checked his fishing license, the warden noticed a bait bucket in the water. The warden asked the man about the kind of bait he was using and he replied, "Some shad that I caught." After an inspection of the bait bucket, the warden found the fisherman in possession of seven undersized crappie and five undersized largemouth bass mixed in with the shad and minnows. All of the undersized game fish were released, and citations issued for possession of undersized game fish.
- Little White Lies
A Tarrant County game warden was checking fishermen on Lake Grapevine when she pulled up to a boat that was drift-fishing for catfish. When she made contact, she noticed some large fish scales next to an open pocket knife. As the men searched for their fishing licenses, the warden noticed a small white bass on the floor of the boat next to one of the men's feet. She asked the men what they were using for bait, and they pointed to a bucket of shad. The warden retrieved the white bass from the floor of the boat, and it was missing one fillet and its tail. The men were asked to reel in their lines, and two of the four lines had been baited with the undersized white bass. The men received an education about the illegality of using game fish for bait, and citations were issued.
- A Shot in the Dark
A McLennan County game warden received a trespass call. While unable to immediately locate the individuals, he decided to wait in the area. After dark, the warden saw a vehicle stop just down the road and noticed a group of people get out with an AR-15 rifle and flashlight. They began to shoot off the road into a nearby creek and field, so the warden approached the group and issued a citation for discharging a firearm from a public road. No evidence of hunting from the road was found. Forty-five minutes later, another truck stopped down the road in the same general area, and a man got out of the truck with an AK-47 and fired numerous rounds into the creek. When the warden made contact with the shooter, he noticed open containers in the vehicle. The subject said he was testing his AK-47 on the turtles in the creek. No turtles were located and citations were issued.

Status hearing in FAMU hazing case postponed
Robert Champion died after hazing in Orlando
ORLANDO, Fla. – Eight defendants who remain charged in the hazing death of a Florida A&M drum major won't tell a judge until later this month whether they will accept plea offers or go to trial.
They were expected to update a judge Friday on the statuses of plea talks with prosecutors. That hearing has been rescheduled for Oct. 25. Judge Marc Lubet said in August that Friday would be a "drop dead date" to accept those deals, some of which include jail time.
Fifteen former band members were charged with manslaughter and hazing in Robert Champion's November 2011 death. Six have accepted plea deals that included community service and probation for what prosecutors said were minor roles. A seventh is awaiting sentencing.
Champion died after he collapsed following a hazing ritual.

Hi Guys!
I know it's been a long time since I've blogged. I feel like people just dont like to read as much anymore these days lol. But for those who are still on the blogging scenes, I want to give yall props!!
And to anyone who still reads and keeps up with my blogs - thank you!!! It's so hard to have the downtime to sit and type out a blogpost.
As many of you know, I've been getting into fitness especially this year where I've been much more consistent than the previous year where I was just trying to get myself wrapped around it. Because it's really a lifestyle change, it was definitely hard to stay consistent but I've realized that since I was so on and off for the year I first started getting into fitness, I realized that I would've made much much more gains and progress.
So by beating up myself for that, I just put myself into focus and tried to stay as consistent as possible. I know it's tough when life gets in the way but fitness is part of life and I can't be making any excuses.
That's my story behind it! So yes, I am disappointed in myself but I can't keep looking back and telling myself I could be much more better and I would've made much more progress.. instead I have to remind myself that baby steps forward are still steps being taken foward and at least I'm still one small step ahead of where I was yesterday. :)
Anyways, for those who don't know, here are some fitness related videos that can help you watch my journey and maybe it can help one or two of you :)
I wouldn't have been able to do any of it without the help of my boyfriend, Hanh! (http://youtube.com/hanhchampion)
