Proposed rule.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to add Slovakia to the list of countries eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States. Reviews by FSIS of Slovakia's laws, regulations, and other written materials show that its meat processing system meets requirements that are equivalent to the relevant provisions of the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) and its implementing regulations.
Under this proposal, meat products processed in certified establishments in Slovakia will be permitted to be exported to the United States if these products are derived from cattle, sheep, swine, and goats slaughtered in federally inspected establishments in the United States, or in certified slaughter establishments in other countries eligible to export meat to the United States. All meat products exported from Slovakia to the United States will be reinspected at the U.S. ports-of-entry by FSIS inspectors as required by law.
Comments must be received on or before October 12, 2001.
Send an original and two copies of comments to:

FSIS is proposing to amend the Federal meat inspection regulations to add Slovakia to the list of countries eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States. In 1972, the country formerly known as Czechoslovakia completed the eligibility process for exportation of meat products to the United States. The country maintained its eligibility until it split into two separate countries, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, on January 1, 1993. The part of the country that became the Czech Republic continued to maintain a meat inspection system under the same laws and regulations that existed when it was part of Czechoslovakia. Since FSIS had previously determined that these laws and regulations were equivalent to the meat inspection standards applied to products produced in the United States, the Agency determined that the newly formed Czech Republic would continue to be eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States. On February 24, 1995, FSIS published a direct final rule to amend section 327 of the meat inspection regulations (9 CFR part 327) to remove "Czechoslovakia" and add the "Czech Republic" to the list of countries eligible to export meat products to the United States (60 FR 10306).
The part of former Czechoslovakia that became Slovakia had never had any certified meat inspection plants, nor had it exported any meat products to the United States. Given this history and the lack of information about the Slovakian meat inspection system, FSIS was not certain that Slovakia's meat inspection system was equivalent to that of the United States. Therefore, FSIS decided to require that Slovakia request and receive approval from FSIS before it could be deemed eligible to have its meat products exported to the United States.
Section 20 of the FMIA (21 U.S.C. 620) prohibits the importation into the United States of carcasses, parts of carcasses, meat, or meat food products of cattle, sheep, swine, goats, horses, mules, or other equines that are capable for use as human food that are adulterated or misbranded. Imported meat products must be in compliance with the Federal meat inspection regulations to ensure that they meet the standards provided in the FMIA. 9 CFR 327.2 establishes the procedures by which foreign countries that want to export meat or meat products to the United States may become eligible to do so.
Section 327.2(a) requires that authorities in a foreign country's meat inspection system certify that (1) the system provides standards equivalent to those of the United States and (2) the legal authority for the system and its implementing regulations are equivalent to those of the United States. Specifically, a country's regulations must impose requirements that are equivalent to those of the United States in the following areas: (1) Ante-mortem and post-mortem inspection; (2) official controls by the national government over plant construction, facilities, and equipment; (3) direct and continuous supervision of slaughter activities, where applicable, and product preparation by official inspection personnel; (4) separation of establishments certified to export from those not certified; (5) maintenance of a single standard of inspection and sanitation throughout certified establishments; and (6) official controls over condemned product.
Section 327.2 also requires that a meat inspection system maintained by a foreign country, with respect to establishments that prepare products in that country for export to the United States, ensure that those establishments and their meat products comply with requirements that are equivalent to the provisions of the FMIA and the meat inspection regulations. Foreign country authorities must be able to ensure that all certifications required under Part 327 of the meat inspection regulations (Imported Products) can be relied upon before approval to export meat products to the United States will be granted by FSIS. Besides relying on its initial determination of a country's eligibility, coupled with ongoing reviews to ensure that products shipped to the United States are safe, wholesome, and properly labeled and packaged, FSIS randomly samples imported meat and meat products for reinspection as they enter the United States.
In addition to meeting the certification requirements, a foreign country's inspection system must be evaluated by FSIS before it will be granted eligibility to export meat products to the United States. This evaluation consists of two processes: a document review and an on-site review. The document review is an evaluation of the laws, regulations, and other written materials used by the country to operate its inspection program. To help the country organize its materials, FSIS gives the country questionnaires that ask for detailed information about the country's inspection practices and procedures in five risk areas. These five risk areas, which are the focus of the evaluation, are sanitation, animal disease, slaughter/processing, residues, and enforcement. FSIS evaluates the information to verify that the critical points in the five risk areas are addressed satisfactorily with respect to standards, activities, resources, and enforcement. If the document review is satisfactory, an on-site review is Start Printed Page 42473scheduled using a multi-disciplinary team to evaluate all aspects of the country's inspection program, including laboratories and individual establishments within the country.
Evaluation of the Slovakian Inspection System
In response to a request from Slovakia for approval to export meat and meat products to the United States, FSIS conducted a review of the Slovakian meat inspection system to determine if it is equivalent to the U.S. meat inspection system. First, FSIS compared Slovakia's meat inspection laws and regulations with U.S. requirements. The study concluded that the requirements contained in Slovakia's meat inspection laws and regulations are equivalent to those mandated by the FMIA and its implementing regulations. FSIS then conducted an on-site review of the Slovakian meat inspection system in operation. The FSIS review team concluded that Slovakia's implementation of meat processing standards and procedures is equivalent to that of the United States, and that Slovakia's official residue control laboratory is fully capable of testing meat products.
If this proposal is adopted by FSIS, meat products exported to the United States from Slovakia will be reinspected at the ports-of-entry for transportation damage, labeling, proper certification, general condition, and accurate count. Other types of inspection will also be conducted, including examining the product for defects and performing laboratory analyses to detect chemical residues in the product or to determine whether the product is microbiologically contaminated.
Products that pass reinspection will be stamped with the official mark of inspection and allowed to enter U.S. commerce. If they do not meet U.S. requirements, they will be stamped "U.S. Refused Entry" and re-exported, destroyed, or converted to animal food.
Accordingly, FSIS is proposing to amend section 327 of the meat inspection regulations to add Slovakia as a country from which meat and meat products may be eligible for export to the United States. As a country eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States, the government of Slovakia will certify to FSIS those establishments that intend to export such products to the United States and that operate according to U.S. requirements. FSIS will verify that establishments certified by the Slovakia government are meeting the U.S. requirements. This verification will be done through on-site reviews of the establishments while they are in operation.
Although a foreign country may be listed as eligible to export meat and meat products, products from that country must also comply with other U.S. requirements, including the restrictions under title 9, part 94 of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service's regulations that relate to the importation of meat and meat products from foreign countries into the United States.
Executive Order 12988
This proposed rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. States and local jurisdictions are preempted by the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) from imposing any marking, labeling, packaging, or ingredient requirements on federally inspected meat or meat products that are in addition to, or different than, those imposed under the FMIA. States and local jurisdictions may, however, exercise concurrent jurisdiction over meat and meat products that are outside official establishments for the purpose of preventing the distribution of meat and meat products that are misbranded or adulterated under the FMIA, or, in the case of imported articles, that are not at such an establishment, after their entry into the United States. This proposed rule is not intended to have retroactive effect. If this proposed rule is adopted, administrative proceedings will not be required before parties may file suit in court challenging this rule. However, the administrative procedures specified in 9 CFR 306.5 must be exhausted prior to any judicial challenge of the application of the provisions of this proposed rule, if the challenge involves any decision of an FSIS employee relating to inspection services provided under the FMIA.
Executive Order 12866 and Regulatory Flexibility Act
This proposed rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12866. It has been determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866 and therefore, has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
Currently, there is only one establishment in Slovakia that has applied for USDA Meat Plant Certification for Export. This establishment would export non-heat treated shelf stable meat products, such as sausages and salami, and non-shelf stable cooked meat products, such as pasteurized hams and specialty cured, cooked, and smoked meat products. U.S. imports from this establishment are expected to total 520 tons per year.
U.S. firms currently export no meat products and only a small amount of poultry products to Slovakia. Table 1 reports U.S. exports of poultry and pork products to Slovakia from 1994 to 2000. Poultry exports were highest in 1994, before declining and eventually falling to zero in 1996. Poultry exports reappeared again in 1998, but again at relatively low levels.
Table 1 also reports U.S. exports of pork products to Slovakia. Between 1994 and 2000, U.S. firms exported pork products to Slovakia only once, in 1994. Since then, the U.S. has not had any exports of meat products to Slovakia.
If this proposal is issued as a final rule, it could begin to reopen trade between the United States and Slovakia. During much of the mid-1990's, many emerging democratic nations faced substantial economic obstacles. Listing Slovakia as a country eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States could begin the process of reacquainting Slovakia with U.S. firms.
Expected benefits from this type of proposed rule would generally accrue to consumers in the form of lower prices. However, the volume of trade stimulated by this proposal is likely to be so small as to have little effect on supply and farm-level prices for livestock. Apart from any change in prices, U.S. consumers may still benefit from an increased choice of meat products in the marketplace.
The costs of this proposed rule will accrue primarily to producers in the form of greater competition from Slovakia. However, as mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the volume of trade stimulated by this rule would be very small and is likely to have little effect on supply and farm-level prices. Nonetheless, it is possible that U.S. firms that produce products that would compete with Slovakian imports could face short-run difficulties. However, in the long run, it is expected that such firms would adjust their product mix in order to compete effectively.Start Printed Page 42474

Effect on Small Entities
The Administrator, FSIS, has made an initial determination that this proposed rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities, as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). This proposed rule would add Slovakia to the list of countries eligible to export meat and meat products to the United States. Currently, only one establishment in Slovakia has applied for USDA Meat Plant Certification for Export. This establishment plans to export approximately 520 tons of non-heat treated shelf stable meat products and non-shelf stable cooked meat products to the United States per year. The volume of trade stimulated by this rule would be very small, and, as previously mentioned, is not likely to have much of an effect on supply and prices. Therefore, this proposed rule is not expected to have a significant impact on small domestic entities that produce these types of products.
Paperwork Requirements
No new paperwork requirements are associated with this proposed rule. A foreign country that wants to export meat products to the United States is required to provide information to FSIS to certify that its inspection system provides standards equivalent to those of the United States and that the legal authority for the system and its implementing regulations are equivalent to those of the United States before it may start exporting such product to the United States. FSIS collects this information one time only. FSIS gave Slovakia questionnaires asking for detailed information about the country's inspection practices and procedures to assist the country in organizing its materials. This information collection was approved under OMB number 0583-0094. This proposed rule contains no other paperwork requirements.
Public Notification and Request for Data
FSIS requests information regarding the impact of this proposed rule on minorities, women, and persons with disabilities, including information on the number of minority-owned meat and poultry establishments, the makeup of establishment workforces, and the communities served by official establishments. Public involvement in all segments of rulemaking and policy development are important. Consequently, in an effort to better ensure that minorities, women, and persons with disabilities are aware of this proposed rule and are informed about the mechanism for providing their comments, FSIS will announce it and provide copies of this Federal Register publication in the FSIS Constituent Update. FSIS provides a weekly FSIS Constituent Update, which is communicated via fax to over 300 organizations and individuals. In addition, the update is available on line through the FSIS web page located at http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?from= leavingFR.html&log= linklog&to= http://www.fsis.usda.gov. The update is used to provide information regarding FSIS policies, procedures, regulations, Federal Register notices, FSIS public meetings, recalls, and any other types of information that could affect or would be of interest to our constituents/stakeholders. The constituent fax list consists of industry, trade, and farm groups, consumer interest groups, allied health professionals, scientific professionals, and other individuals that have requested to be included. Through these various channels, FSIS is able to provide information to a much broader, more diverse audience. For more information and to be added to the constituent fax list, fax your request to the Congressional and Public Affairs Office, at (202) 720-5704.Start List of Subjects

Turnpike Rivalry is Back.
Today, my wish came true.
Just a little good natured ribbing. See you in the post season!
Monday, December 10, 2007
When we were pregnant, I had fears from time to time about how I would feel when Norah was born. I was afraid that I wouldn't be as excited about a new daughter as everyone said I would be. I was afraid that I wouldn't immediately fall in love with her, like everyone said I would. And it makes sense to think that won't happen. Everyone I have ever loved, I had to get to know. I have never loved someone right away without knowing anything about them, so I thought I might need to get to know Norah a bit before I loved her as much as everyone told me I would.
I was wrong. There was no need to worry about anything. I clearly remember the sound of Norah's first breath after the brought her into the world. She was gurgling through some of the amniotic fluid in her lungs and nose, but that sound was pure magic to me. Everything in the operating room stopped, the nurses weren't talking any more, the machines weren't beeping, it was just me, Rach, and a blue sheet with my gurgling baby girl behind it. I looked at Rach, exhausted, and I was so excited I couldn't contain it. They brought her over to me, and even though she looked slimy, bloody and dirty, I loved her. I don't know why. It really is something no one can describe and I'm not going to try. But honestly, I saw her, and my heart caught on fire inside my chest and all I wanted to do was hold her and hug her and tell her I love her.
Fortunately, I have the rest of her life to hold her and hug her and tell her I love her. And that's exactly what I plan on doing. She is beautiful, sweet, and not bloody any more. Anyway, you're all here for pictures, so I'll give you what you've come for.
Here are my favorites so far. The rest you can find on Norah's album on our Flickr account. I'll keep a link on the sidebar for those of you who would like to keep looking up on it.
This was the first time I really got to hold Norah. She was in the blue lights to treat Jaundice for the first two days, and I didn't get to hold her because she could only be out of the lights for feedings. It was kind of stressful, but Jaundice is pretty common and we weren't worried. And I did get to hold her so... it was okay.
And it smelt of snozzberries and rancid potato water.

Last Sonogram
At this second to last doctor's visit, we had our last sonogram. They did the 3D thing again, and I was disappointed with the results, again. Typically they show you results like this when they talk about the 4D sonogram:
We weren't expecting results like that (because I know that's just the 4D sonogram companies trying to get eager parents to push Doctor's offices to offer 4D sonogram imaging), but I was hoping to see results a little better than we got:
Now, I don't know about you, but I kind of think she looks like a dog. In fact, when I saw the 4D image pop up I said "She looks like a bull dog!" And I think I offended the lady running the machine. But honestly, I can't look at this picture and NOT see a dog. I'll trace it out in case you can't see it. Because once you do see it, I don't think you can look at that picture and not see a dog.
Although the 4D thing wasn't really great, they were able to take some measurements. They think that Norah is about 8 pounds 2 ounces, and they think her Femur measured off the charts. (Which is hilarious because we are both so short.) So it looks like Norah got some of her Grandpa in her... hopefully she'll stay shorter than us through elementary school, but we'll see.
All in all, it was fun to know that Norah will be joining us in a few years. But as things stand right now, we're expecting Norah to look a bit like this in a few years:
Oh, and it's now officially OK to wish people a Merry Christmas!

RE: Chris Kinglestein
I would like it if the entire blog was about candy canes and Christmas lights please.
Thank you in advance...
Chris Kringlestein
It's funny Mr. Kringlestein, that you should ask. One, because your name sounds very Jewish, and you want Christmas stuff up. I'll throw in some Channukah for you as well.
But also because it isn't yet Thanksgiving. Every where I look, stores, TV, Malls, everyone has finally completely blown past Thanksgiving and moved on to Christmas. There have been four cities nearby who had lighting ceremonies already. And I am sad. I love Thanksgiving. It has long been one of my favorite holidays, and yet, the holiday is being railroaded by the commercialization of Christmas. Why? Because stores make a heck of a lot more money off of candy canes and stockings than they do off of cranberry sauce and turkey. I'm sad about that. I wish our culture spent more time on Thanksgiving, both the holiday, and the attitude.
I know that this won't change, and I know that this steady pace closer and closer to Halloween will only continue. But I wonder when it will stop. I thought that there would never be a time when Christmas ceremonies took place before Thanksgiving, but I'm clearly wrong. Now, I wonder, will there ever be Christmas ceremonies before Halloween? Is that crazy? Or is that the future?
Saturday, November 17, 2007

Joe Biden has impressed me, here are my thoughts on Biden:
- I don't like his position on refusing to give driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants.
- I like his foreign policy understandings. A lot.
- I like his attention to Pakistan, and his knowledge about what's going on there.
- I like his ability to debate according to the rules, and the fact that he never once fought with the facilitator.
- I don't like the way he skirted around the Health Care Reform questions.
- I LOVED what he had to say about Iraq.
- I like how he portrayed himself tonight over all.

Poem and Laughing Baby
I also found this poem in a journal I wrote. It's no where near as good as the laughing baby, but I liked it, so I'm burying here where it's sure to be upstaged.
The Hymn
In the valley
at the bend of a thin dirty creek
I drove up to a leaning wooden church,
stones popping under under the tires.
The windows were open
the children laying on wooden pews.
Old women in large hats
fanned themselves,
and the old man behind me
shook like the organ music.
The farmer's fingers
thick as toes
gripped the hymnal
like a cold clod of earth.
The man across the sanctuary
sang loudly
while we whispered the hymn.
Outside, through the window,
I saw the mountains
folded on the ground
like laundry.
The clouds made their slow pilgrimage
across the thin blue expanse
all wandering slowly in the same direction.
And as we stood to sing the Gloria Patri
the pews creaked
and behind me, children laughed.
The curtains flapped.
And the organ breathed
an old

Happy Halloween!
Moving on to something overly romanticized:
Halloween. It's time for little kids to put baby powder in their hair and walk around with bed sheets on and ask neighbors for candy. I have always really enjoyed Halloween, and I'm glad to be at a place in my life where I'm thinking about what my little daughter will be doing in a few years. And how much sweet, sweet candy I'll get when that cute little girl goes begging for sweets. Mmmmm....
Things in the Elek
Actually, as I was typing this, Rach touched my arm and said that she thought she felt her first Braxton-Hicks contraction! YAHOO! So, I guess we're officially on the home stretch.... here goes nothing.
Anyway, I just wanted to stop in and send a quick update saying things (other than the pubic pain) are still going pretty well. We look forward to bringing little Norah home, though it's pretty scary to think about becoming a Dad. I think I realized how scared I am when I came home yesterday and Rachel was balling on the couch--snot running down her face and everything. I asked her what was wrong and she cried saying "I'm just watching A Baby Story." I laughed, and sat down with her to watch the last bit of the episode. It's just crazy to watch something like that and realize that I'm going to be in a hospital room just like that in just a few weeks. I can't wait, but man, I'm nervous. Ready or not, though, here goes.

Why Study World Religions
1. Why World Religions? Those who ask the question this way, are merely curious as to why I am interested in World Religions.
2. Why World Religions? Those who ask this question believe that there is a difference between the study of Christian things and the study of Non-Christian things. Devoting oneself to the Non-Christian things robs one of the opportunity to engage in the Christian tasks of Evangelism and Devotion.
3. Why World Religions? People asking the question this are usually trying to caution me against learning about World Religions because they are afraid that Academic exposure to the study of World Religions will degrade my orthodoxy and transform me into a Universalist.
I will address these three very different questions in reverse order.
In response to the Third Question: Firstly, allow me to say that Universalim holds no water. It is not possible for all religions to be correct. If all religions were correct, then it would be true that Jesus was God, and that Jesus did not exist, and that Jesus was a prophet. This is a logical impossibility. It is not even an antinomy, it is the Kantian non-entity. Impossible. Universalim makes no sense whatsoever. To say that everyone eventually meets God even with incorrect beliefs is not Universalism, this is either a lazy form of Buddhism, or a nameless Religion.
Secondly, some Christians fear that the study of other faiths entices Christians to leave the Church. There is merit to this belief, because many Christians who study other faiths end up leaving the Church. However, fault the individual for this, I fault the Church. I have taken part in many Christian worship opportunities that I felt were spiritually bankrupt. In my opinion, someone who has been exposed to authentic Christianity will not leave it for authentic Buddhism, Atheism, Hinduism, etc. However, someone who has been exposed to bankrupt Christianity would justifiably exchange that for another faith.
In response to the Second Question: With all due respect, this is a form of Dualism which Christ did not seem to support. Christ did not seem to find a gap between the sacred and the profane as did we. This is not to say that Christ did not believe in sin, he most certainly did. He most certainly believed in the devil, and in evil. However, Christ seemed to think these things were spiritual in nature, and not physical. Christ did not think that being a fisherman, or a prostitute prohibited one from becoming a true disciple. When describing the
And, (if I am honest about my understanding of Scripture) I want to study the History of World Religions because Christ wants me to study the History of World Religions. Christ is the supreme sovereign over my life, and I believe my passion for World Religions comes from Him. And, I would be doing myself a severe disservice were I to ignore that call.

Tribe Wins! Tribe Wins! Tribe Wins!
Friday, October 05, 2007
Update: Busy Busy
1. GREs
I've studied for the GRE's twice in my life. The first time Heather Battles and I "studied" at Panera Bread every Tuesday. She for the MCAT and me for the GRE. She's an M.D. now, and as of last week, I hadn't taken the GREs yet. So, I had Rachel sign me up, and I took them. I really should have studied more, but I spent most of my study time preparing for the Math section. I figured it would be better for me to relearn the rules for exponents and statistics than to try to memorize every twenty dollar word in the English Language hoping to see fifteen of them on the test. So, after a few days of Math review (and realizing that a Math prep test took me just under 12 hours to complete.) I drove up to Pittsburgh on Thursday and just took the test. I got a 570 on the verbal, and a 600 on the math. I'm not sure if those are good scores or not, but everything I've looked at say they are anywhere from slightly below average, to slightly above average. So that's good. They aren't out of the ball park, but they probably won't make any one think I'm mentally handicapped when I apply.
2. Grad School
I'm applying for Grad Schools right now. I have to speak with some of my old Professors from Malone to get some advice (if you're an old Professor from Malone, and you have advice... ) but right now I'm looking at University of Chicago, Duke, Princeton, and Boston University. My hope is to study the history of World Religions wherever I go. U Chicago has a pretty great reputation, and I hope to study there. But it's ULTRA expensive, and I'll need some serious fellowship opportunities if it's going to work out. We'll see. If you have any other ideas let me know... I'm somewhat afraid that the GRE scores will knock me out of the competition for some of the schools I've listed.
3. Norah and Rachel
We just had our most recent Sonogram today. It's so neat to see her moving around and sucking her thumb in there. We're reading her Peter Pan right now. I bought a beautifully illustrated copy a few years ago, and Rach and I are reading it to Norah when we go to bed. She seems to like it and kicks around a lot while I read.
4. Work
Work is nuts right now. Lots and lots and lots going on. I've had to do some serious dancing around the "regular office politics" lately, and there have been some factors that make work very difficult from time to time. I can't go into specifics, but that's been eating away at my time for sure.
5. New Database
I'm working on a new database to house the information for the Student Conduct process. Our old database was in a program called FileMaker Pro. It wasn't a very good program, and was very difficult to use. Once the program was set up, we couldn't access the data very easily, so we are in the process of switching to Microsoft Access. Because no one in the office (including me) knows how to use Access, I've taken it upon myself to learn the program and set up the database. So I've spent a few nights and days curled up next to the University's thirteen hundred page edition of "How do Use Access" learning how to create a viable database. I think I'm there and when I get the kinks out of how to secure the database on the server, it'll be up and running.
6. Learning to cook indian food
Yum. I love it. But it takes a very, very long time to create curries sometimes. We went to an Indian food class a while back, and I can't wait to get back to the Indian grocery so I can pick up some curry leaves, and "estrogen." (We didn't know what this particular spice was, but Hari kept calling it "Estrogen." Later we learned that he was actually saying that the spice's flavor was "astringent." Seeing as I haven't grown boobs or anything I can only assume that it was "astringent" and not "Estrogen.")
7. Reading all the books you have to read before you can have a baby. Baby Wise... Baby Signs... How to be a Daddy... THE Book for First Time Daddy... The Baby Name Bible... (We're done with that one) The Father's Survival Guide... Jesus and Pacifism... All the books you need to read in order to qualify as a guy who can change a diaper without breaking the kid. I think I have a long way to go, but at least I now know a heck of a lot about breast milk, moisture wicking gel, and how
8. Watching the Browns
Go browns. Seriously... we're looking like a real team. ESPN even said that the game against the Pats would be a good one to watch! Really?! Someone told people to watch Cleveland? Wow.
9. Watching the Indians
BAM! Take that Joe Torre... Kenny Lofton's smiling his rear end off because you wouldn't start him because he's black, and now he knocks you right in the mouth with two hits and four RBIs and ties the record for post season stolen bases all in the same night. Way to go Cleveland... no one should be able to compete with the pay roll of the Greedy Yanks, and yet here you are, showing "The Man" how it feels to get kicked in the shins with steel toed boots... thirteen times. Keep at it boys!
Indians over the Yanks in 4! I said it!
10. Death of Will Ruberg
Will Ruberg passed away last week. He was a great guy, and was dating one of the students that Rachel and I are working closely with. Rachel and I met him on our second New Orleans trip. He came out to help rebuild the city, and we later learned that he lived in the city when he was a kid. At first I was intimidated by him, because he just looked like such a "cool" kid, but later I realized what a fun and energetic guy he really was. I liked him a ton. Needless to say, his death is a serious blow. We're working with Kate (his girlfriend) to try to help her cope... but honestly, how do you possibly "cope" with something like that. I can't imagine being in her shoes... it's just terrible. Please be praying for the Ruberg's and Kate.
I'm finished with this post, and I can't help but think how terrible it is that I don't spend more time talking about him. I'm sorry. This isn't meant to be a memior for Will, just a description of what's going on in my life right now... it seems a very selfish way to talk about him. I'm sorry Will, but I know you wouldn't take any offense.

The Best Medicine.
Then, I woke up and went about my day. All day long I've been sneezing and yadda yadda yadda, but then, in just under three hours, everything changed. I woke up feeling like crap, and spent the morning just wanting to lay in bed. So I pulled out the sleeping bag, and layed down on the couch all morning, and now I feel a hundred times better.
My nose is still clogged, and I can't breathe for crap, and I still have post-nasal drip to make Niagra Falls jealous... but my spirits are high.
That's right... THE BROWNS WON! We racked up a whopping 51 points against the Cincinatti Bengals today and went away with a W. I couldn't be happier right now.
If you want to see the highlight reel... go here.

Overdue: Bryson City and Training
We are knee deep in training right now, so it's been a while since I've been able to post. I find that I'm super busy this first part of the year every year, but it's good to start out on the right foot. I should be working on my bulliten board right now, and I will very soon. So this post will be sort of short.
Anyway, a few weeks ago, Babs, Carrie, Rachel and I went to Bryson City North Carolina. Carrie's Aunt and Uncle have a cabin in the mountains and the four of us went and had the best vacation I've had in years. Here's how it went down:
We met up in Ohio and left our Saturn in a pharmacy parking lot for the week. We thew some of our things into the back of Bab's and Carrie's Element, and Babs started driving. (For those of you who don't know Babs, he has to drive or he'll go nuts.)
About ten hours later, we were there. We got to the cabin at about 2:00 in the morning, and were absoultely shocked at what a nice place it was. I brought along three wrought iron pots for cooking on the fire because I didn't think there would be a "real" kitchen. Well, much to my chagrin, not only was there a kitchen, there was high speed wireless internet. (Which we couldn't get to work all week, fortunately.) I'll just narrate through the pictures.
The place was very, very comfortable, and we really enjoyed just hanging out in the cabin.
Here's a shot of Rachel in the HUGE King Sized bed we slept in. Yes, they even had clean sheets waiting for us...
Here's a shot of the living room and the front door. Our bedroom is on the other side of that stairway.
And here's a shot of the dining area. (The front door is behind me to the right.)
The front porch and an idea of what it looked like to sit on the porch. When you went out there it was basically just a loud, loud locust fight. It was nearly dead quiet in the day, and beautifully loud at night.
Here we are on a hike... this was on the way to a waterfall in a Cherokee reservation nearby. More pictures from that beautiful hike follow below:
Here you can see the tall grass that rose up straight from the creek bed.
The water was cool, and clean, and a mist rose off of the stream as it crawled down the slippery backs of those polished creek stones.
Moss grew all along the creek bed in a cuishoney carpet of emerald fronds and an occasional bright flower.
Here you can see the water looks black because it is so transparent you look right onto the polished stones below.
The creek rushed by so beautifully it took me a long time hike the mile and a half to the waterfall because I kept stopping to take pictures.
Here's a shot of one of those flowers we passed. These were some very strange looking flowers with just two tiny petals sticking out from the stem like fragile purple silk blades.
There were about a dozen of these little streams that bubbled up, to the right and left of the path and spilled into the creek. One of these streams dripped down from under the exposed root structure of an old mossy tree. It looked as if the tree itself was the source of the stream.
Here's another one of the flowers we saw periodically near the stream. There were a handful of these red flowers that looked like a mess of yawning red beaks.
Here you can see the delicate carpet of rich green moss hanging its hair down into the misting mountain stream. It really didn't get any more beautiful than this. I could take this walk again and again. Or rather, just go and sit in that moss watching the water bubble by for a few hours. It was a very beautiful place to me.
Here's a little guy we saw taking his time climbing a tree.
Here's a shot of Carrie walking around by the water. Look at all the lichen and moss growing on the backs of the logs and trees, everything was just! so green.
And here's the waterfalls we came to. They weren't as big as the Mingo Falls that we had just been to, but the walk more than made up for it. Oh, and on the way back, some hiker behind us caught Rachel peeing in the woods. I was lookout, and when I saw him turning the corner I yelled Stop! Get up! Naturally, she thought I was joking, but when she saw him she jumped up and we ran ahead. Fortunately he was about sixty yards away when he came around the corner, but I'm pretty sure he knew what was going on because Rachel didn't have time to put the toilet paper in the bag she brought... That was the highlight of Day 2.
Here's a shot of Mingo Falls. It was much more visited than the other falls, and I hope you can see why. You had to climb up a hundred and fifty-nine steps to get to the falls, but once you got there you were rewarded with a fifty foot long roaring creek skittering down rocks that looked like enormous elephant hides.
Here's a shot with a person in the corner to give you a feel for the height of the falls.
One more shot, I tried to use the Rhotodendron to frame in the waterfalls. I think I liked the effect.
There was a bridge people could stand on to view the falls. Under that bridge was this water logged gnarled log sagging under the weight of the waterfall crashing down. I took quite a few pictures of that log, by the time I was done, it almost had a personality.
This was the end of the falls. It was almost as if this was the spot where Mingo Falls surrendered to the gradual drop of the creek bed. From here on out, the water tripped over a few logs, and fell down a few large rocks, but nothing like the falls in the background.
The next day we went to a place with a different sort of beauty. It was a bit overcast that day, so I didn't get the best pictures, but I wanted to post a few of the pictures we got from the Biltmore Estate in Asheville NC. The mansion was built by George Vanderbilt when he was, guess it... 27 years old. I can't even begin to imagine building something like that at my age. I have trouble buying salmon, how did this guy manage to make the Biltmore Estate at 27? Anyway, it was a beautiful day at the Estate. We loved walking through the mansion and looking at all of the original furniture and decorations. The whole experience is a real historical treasure. If you are ever near the Vanderbilt mansion, you should go. It's worth the hefty ticket price. (Which also lands you a Wine Tasting...)
I liked this picture because it says something to me. Here is just a simple little plant, not even flowered yet, and it is so intricate, and so beautiful. Behind it is the most elegant home I've ever seen in my life, the most beautiful thing I've seen made by human hands, and yet, there is still something in this bare flower bud that triumphs over even that. I don't know, maybe I'm getting too deep, but after the beautiful walk in the woods, I was just struck by how hard we try to make beautiful things, when there are so many of them all around us.
Here's a shot of the front yard. Rumor has it the neighborhood lawnmower kid was loaded.
Here's a shot of the Wine Cellar. You weren't allowed to take pictures inside the house, but no one said I couldn't take any of the Wine Cellar...
Again, the Wine Cellar. You can imagine how beautiful the rest of the home was...
We toured the gardens as well. They were pretty, but again, I couldn't help but think about how that little no-name mountain stream was so much more beautiful than all of this arranged and controlled beauty around me. Still, some of the structures were just breathtaking, and the leaves on some of the plants were literally as big as a person. It was very neat to see.
A flower in the Hot House. I love the texture of the petals, they almost look like they're made of octopus skin.
It's hard to take a picture of these trained fruit trees. They were expertly manicured and trained to stand flat against a wall like someone hiding against a wall in a dark alley... uh... holding fruit.
Here's a shot of the
I have a lot more pictures, but you can check them out on your own at Flickr.
I mentioned the Highlight of Day 2, but not the other highlights so here you go.
Highlight of Day 1: Babs was driving us through down town Bryson City (very quaint mountain town) when he came to some rail road tracks. The lights did not blink, and the arms did not come down, but he saw a train moving very slowly down the tracks toward the car. It was only the engine, there were no other cars on the train, and it was moving very slowly, but Adam stopped like any good driver... just in time for the lights to go off and the arm to come down on the roof of his car. Then he floored it and drove out from under the arm and over to the other side of the tracks. I felt badly for him, and when we saw that there was no damage to the car, I laughed very loudly for a very long time.
Highlight of Day 3: I was making Hot Pepper Sauce by sauteeing some Hot Indian Chile Peppers. As I sauteed the peppers, apparently some hot pepper gas began filling the cabin. Before I knew it, Rachel, Carrie, Babs and I were on the front porch with watery eyes and dry coughs. I went in, threw some vinegar in the pan and it calmed down for a while.
Hightlight of Day 4: We went White Water Rafting class three river. For those of you who have been rafting before, it was a series of ones and twos with a three at the end. That three almost knocked Babs right out of the boat, making for the Highlight of Day 4.
Highlight of Day 5: We drove to Blue Hole in the Ocoee River in Tennessee. It was a place that Babs and I had been to a few years ago. The river is damed up, and they let the dam out once a week making some intense white water. When they bring the dams up again, the water recedes and what was white water a day ago, turns into a beautiful swimming hole with tunnels in the rocks that you can swim through and places for skin diving. While we were there, Carrie found one particular slab of rock that was quite long, and quite slippery. She found that by squatting down on your ankles, you could slide down on your feet for quite a distance before falling into the stream. Naturally we all tried it out for a while, and Carrie's pretty sure it will be an olympic sport soon.
Highlight of Day 6: I don't remember. Maybe it was watching Deliverance. Rachel's new favorite movie. "Where you goin' city boy?!"
Well, I was going to talk about training, but this post has been wayyyyyyy too long as it is. I'll update you on the changes here at WJU next time. (That's my cliff hanger for anyone who actually read all the way throught.)
Till then...

For those of you who might have been familiar with Gruesome, the band are formed of members from current and former members of Exhumed, Possessed and Malevolent Creation. Feeding off the carcass of Death, the band have released their now eponymous Savage Land a homage to the more brutal edge of Death, today the band have announced their brand new album Twisted Prayers and it straight out of the blasphemous, politically charged Spiritual Healing-era Death and I'm loving it!
Set to be released June 1st, Gruesome have well and truly transformed into the conduit of Chuck Schuldiner. Releasing their first single "A Waste of Life" its undeniable just how brilliant this band are at bringing that quintessential nineties Death Metal sound that was immortalised by Death and personally one of my favourite albums, Spiritual Healing.
Announcing the release of the record, the band have unveiled that it was recorded with producer Jarrett Pritchard over at New Constellation Studios, it even sounds exactly as it would have, yet what I am happiest about here is the evolution of Gruesome into something that is slightly more technical rather than remaining in the vein of the classic Brutal Death Metal / Leprosy-era style Death. Not to mention the band have enlisted James Murphy (the man responsible for the original shredding solos on the record to give some guest shred.
I've set my calendar! You can preorder the record right here with a whole host of kick ass vinyl variants because Relapse are awesome.

Thousands of Rounds of Knowledge
"Harvey Dock" Boxing Referee(Profile)
Harvey Dock moves in his natural orbit around the fighters, staring at them, concentrating on seeing what the crowd and judges can't. His actions are smooth, effective, and non-disruptive.
He measures distance like the fighters. Keeping his perimeter when needed or poised to step in front of the left hook of Jerry Odom. Protecting Andrew Hernandez while calling a stoppage by TKO, 13 seconds into the first round, it's over.
"The referee should be in position to manage the actions of the match and have his eyes fixated on the action to make the best decision" said Dock. "Looking away from the action is asking for trouble, which leads to boxers taking matters into their own hands."
Just like a fighter, a referee's style is built on ability, experience, and influence.
Dock was a mentee of Benjy Estevez, a veteran referee of global assignments and world title bouts. Estevez has been the third man in the ring with fighters such as Arturo Gatti, Shane Mosely, Bernard Hopkins, and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Docks style of remaining cool when the action is hot is influenced by Estevez. Their positioning, mechanics, and concentration resemble one another.
This is not a one generation lesson. You can see a more kinetic version of the same mechanics, positioning, and concentration in Larry Hazzard. One of Estevez's many mentors, former referee and current commissioner of the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board.
"In my opinion Dock's among the top five boxing officials all over the globe at this point." said Hazzard.
Dock's professionalism and presence make him the recognizable new school ref bringing the old school ref style to fans of boxing on ESPN, HBO and Showtime.
Hazzard knows what it's like to be Dock. He mentored him during his infant stages as a ref. Hazzard has also been the young referee, bringing the old school discipline to the new school fans.
Before becoming a boxing commissioner twice and advocating and instituting improved fighter safety guidelines. Hazzard was refereeing high profile fights in the eighties during a surge in boxing popularity.
Boxers are not the only ones that train for the ring. Dock and Hazzard take their own physical conditioning seriously.
Mistaking Dock for a fighter would be easy. Training amateur boxers, personal training clients, and running a half marathon in support of cancer make him a young, fit 44. At 6'1, He looks like he could fight instead of ref.
"He's in top condition" said Hazzard. "That's very important."
Hazzard knows the benefits of fitness in the ref world. In 1967, he began a referee career that fans still talk about today. Before that he was a three-time New Jersey Golden Glove Champion in the 1960's. He also won the New Jersey A.A.U. Championship and is a practitioner of Jiu-jitsu.
Dock is also an accomplished amateur boxer. Dock was the New Jersey State Champ and state representative to England on the international team in 1993. The following year he was Region One champ, Golden Gloves Champ, and New Jersey's representative to Denmark on the international team. After dominating his one pro fight against Charles Mack in 1997. Dock analyzed his own boxing future and set aside his gloves.
"After seeing the results of some of the older, tougher, fighters I was friends with going pro, I assessed my own skills and felt as if I had already fought at my highest level." said Dock. "For me transitioning to referee went smoothly. Because, as a fighter, I spent my time diligently and analytically studying boxing live and on TV."
In 2003 he began the process of becoming a recognizable young master of the sweet science of refereeing the sweet science.
"I feel somewhat pleased with his development" Hazzard said, "He has excelled above and beyond many young ref's over the years. He climbed the ladder quickly and that's attributed to the fact that he has remained a student of the game. He was a champion boxer on a national level. All these qualities manifested itself in his work, no compunction what so ever."
Both men are from Newark and Dock said when he was younger the "The city was better then and the kids had a tighter community." He'd like to run a boxing program to Newark because he feels it would bring focus, discipline, and inclusion to the youth.
Hazzard is rebuilding Jersey's fight legacy throughout the state right now and that includes fights at Newark's Prudential center.
It's a good time in boxing for a referee who transcends the mixture of fans.
Boxing's profile is rising higher, fueled by a new Saturday night primetime deal on NBC. Hazzard is the unofficial scorer on this program. This will add to the cable fight programming and reach those without premium cable packages.
Dock just appeared on NBC refereeing the high profile fight between Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson.
"I'll put him on any calendar in the sport of boxing." said Hazzard.
Add in the rising participation of rap moguls and tons of new marketable fighters. Plus the fact that Mayweather and Pacquiao will finally get it on. Poises boxing for tremendous additional success.
In reference to the new fans Dock laughed lightly as he responded "While working the Dusty Harrison vs Tommy Rainone at Madison Square Garden. Which was a fight produced by Jay Z's company Roc Nation. I looked into the crowd between rounds and witnessed a traditional boxing fan. Visibly confused by the new fan sitting directly in front of him who was standing and dancing to the music in between the rounds."
Boxing, Hazzard, and Dock are currently in a transition period at this time.
Dock got hit with a layoff after 14 years at Port Authority. He replaced that with personal training and training boxers. He is refereeing high school basketball. He had begun writing about boxing. Dock also took a ten minute break from this interview to collect a check for property he manages.
Hazzard appointed Dock to conduct the New Jersey Boxing seminar in 2014. This led to executive director of the New York State Athletic Commissioner David Berlin to request Dock to do the same for the New York Boxing seminar.
Hazzard is returning to Commissioner after an eight year hiatus. He remained in the fight game by drafting the Unified Rules of MMA in 2001 and worked on returning state-sanctioned status to the UFC.
Hazzard's back and more relaxed. He acknowledged this new approach is making life easier on himself and those working with him.
Hazzard began his professional refereeing career while also attending the graduate program at Montclair State. In 1980 he received his Master's Degree in Administration and Supervision of Education.
Dock just graduated from Rutgers Newark in 2014 with a degree in Journalism. This was the completion of something he started 20 years ago at Essex County College.
"I wanted the diploma!" said Dock. He used the time at Rutgers to enhance his communication and writing ability for further endeavors in the boxing world.
The depth of Dock's expertise and perspective on fights is available in writing at his web-site ringsideboxingshow.com. The Dock fight breakdown includes commentary about the referee's effect on the bout.
"Dock has the kind of mind that would be good at whatever he chose, he's tactful and thinking, he has the pedigree, mentality, attitude, he could have been anything" said Hazzard.
Dock applied his 20 years of boxing education to his University education. "My analytical mind set mixed with my introversion helps in all aspects of my life" said Dock. "The analysis of what's going on in my world works for me and applies to my boxing and got me to graduate."
"Dock takes criticism well and he respectfully asks questions and never challenges constructive criticism. You can see him think, you can see he make a correction. He's an outstanding student. He's a perfect student." Hazzard said. The added "He's tactful and thoughtful and he has the type of mind that opens an individual to rounds of knowledge."
Each student at Newark Rutgers had their own Dock moment as he would speak in class and the mind would flash back to HBO on Saturday as the two worlds blurred together.
So watch the fighters come and go as Dock and Hazzard remain for decades to come. Bringing rounds of old school knowledge and history to the new school boxing fans.
If you follow championship boxing, then you know championship refereeing and you can bet on Dock.
"He's on his way to being the top official in the world." said, Hazzard.

Daio Paper, a Japanese company best known for its manufacture of various paper products, has been the focus of a two Nikkei Asian Review articles in recent months. Last March, the publication explored Daio's success in China's baby care products market. Daio's premium line of GOO.N disposable diapers has been a major hit, despite prices higher than many other competing import brands.
Chinese parents have been so impressed with the product's quality and innovative features that even prices five times higher than domestic products have not deterred sales. Daio's success with the premium GOO.N line in China has been substantial enough that it helped triple their overall sales of disposable diapers in China for fiscal 2014.
Next, in May the Nikkei Asian Review published a second article concerning Daio's use of earnings from its diaper business to lower debt. Daio hopes to lower its interest-bearing debt by 17 percent through fiscal 2017. The company will continue to cut costs of under-performing product divisions, increase diaper production capacity in China, and pay down debt from diaper profits. Daio's household products unit?responsible for its diaper business?has been a bright spot that has helped the company recover from a 2010 scandal involving its former chairman. The company expects a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.9 by 2017.
Japanese Baby Products Growing Across Asia
Daio is by no means alone as it experiences increased growth and profitability with baby care products in markets across Asia. China's domestic baby products sector continues to suffer the backlash of several highly publicized food scandals, including melamine-tainted baby formula in 2008. Chinese consumers have come to prefer Japanese brand baby products, such as Unicharm's Moony and Mamy Poko diapers and Kao's Merries diaper products. Growth of Japanese diapers and related baby products remains robust in China, with a favorable outlook through 2020.
Meanwhile, other markets including India, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam are providing additional growth and demand for Japanese baby products. The trade journal Nonwovens Industry recently reported that Unicharm has seen nine years of consecutive growth in Indonesia, increasing its local market dominance by 30 percent for the period. Likewise, the company controls 60 percent of Thailand's baby care market, 40 percent in Vietnam, and has seen 100 percent year-on-year growth in India.
Driving Asian Consumer Demand
A combination of factors are driving growth across Asian markets, while Japanese companies are uniquely positioned to offer products that are often better suited to the tastes of Asian consumers. Aside from the tainted product scandals that have damaged China's domestic manufacturers, the most obvious reason for the increasing growth is a rise in the middle class across the region.
China, Indonesia, India, and several other emerging economies are developing a more sophisticated class of consumer who prioritizes quality over price, and looks to foreign brands for innovation and safety.
Similarly, Japanese manufacturers have adapted their products to the notoriously finicky tastes of Japanese consumers, and often prioritize quality above any other aspect. The Nikkei Asian Review notes that market studies show Japanese consumers put a higher importance on gentleness and softness of diapers than either Americans or Europeans do. This preference appears to carry over into other Asian markets, where it is an advantage as Japanese companies compete with behemoths like Kimberly-Clark and Procter & Gamble.
The Role of Nonwoven Materials
Perhaps unexpectedly, another Japanese industrial sector is both enabling and profiting from the preference for Japanese baby care products in Asia. The Japanese nonwoven materials sector has created several key innovations that allow companies like Daio to produce premium diapers. JNC, Mitsui Chemicals, Toray Industries, Nippon Shokubai, Sanyo Chemical, and Sumitomo Seika are some of the notable companies that contribute the material innovation needed by baby care product manufacturers.
The comfort and softness qualities favored by Japanese consumers are made possible by the nonwoven materials that come into contact with a baby's skin. These materials also allow for other qualities including absorbency and permeability that distinguish one diaper brand from another. Japanese nonwoven material companies are a primary supplier of fabric and the other 10 to 15 basic materials used for diaper production globally. Three companies alone?Nippon Shokubai, Sanyo Chemical, and Sumitomo Seika?control over half of the global market for SAP materials that provide the absorbency for diapers.
These companies have continued to develop new techniques that allow for softer fabrics, and have increased their own production capabilities in Japan, China, Thailand, and Indonesia over the last year, to meet increasing consumer demand and expectations.
A Future of Diaper Innovation and Increasing Demand
Unicharm has stated in industry reports that it intends to focus heavily on China and India as it seeks growth over the coming years. The company plans to look at diversified products and retail channels, to delve deeper into those markets. Daio is taking steps to improve the features and qualities of its premium diapers, using lessons it has learned in China to improve its competitiveness in Japan and other markets around Asia.
Overall, Japanese diaper manufacturers are expecting substantial growth in Asian markets other than Japan between now and 2020. Daio is looking to boost premium diaper sales in Asia by up to 40 percent through 2017. Industry analysts predict that the consumer preference for higher quality products will remain strong, with it trumping price as the primary purchasing factor, according to Nonwovens Industry. Both Japanese diaper manufacturers and nonwoven material suppliers seem well positioned to capitalize on these regional growth and consumer preference trends.

Inside Kiss' legendary performance at Salt Lake City 2002
When glam rock trailblazers Kiss played at the Salt Lake City 2002 Olympic Winter Games Closing Ceremony, they delivered arguably one of the most memorable live performances in the history of televised sport. Frontman Gene Simmons remembers it like it was yesterday.
Poised on a small stage that moved across an ice rink as dancers skated around them, all the while dressed in their iconic platform boots and make-up, Kiss played their 1975 single, Rock And Roll All Nite, to a televised audience of billions at the Salt Lake City Closing Ceremony. The exploding fireworks and heavy guitars only added to the anarchic vibe. "This thing was a real heart-stopper," Gene Simmons, bassist, singer and founding member, recalled.
What do you remember of the show?
I remember seeing the champion athletes from different countries, different nationalities, different races and different religions all getting together and not worrying about where somebody was from or what language they spoke. The Greeks started this a long time ago and… what a wonderful idea! The Olympics are one of the bright spots on a very tainted human history. If aliens landed on earth and gave us an overview they would say, 'You guys did a lot of bad stuff, the Inquisition, the Nazis of World War II, all sorts of things. But you did some cool stuff. The Emancipation Proclamation, Magna Carta, the Olympics…
Watch more videos on the Olympic Channel
What other events are like that?
The Eurovision (Song) Contest is a good attempt but it stays in Europe. North America and the rest of the world have no idea what that is. As far as I'm concerned, the more world events there are, the more connected maybe we can all be.
Was it fun to play that show?
It was fabulous and of course it went out live, so we had some restrictions. The camera crews were very specific, 'Stand here, do this. Don't do what you normally do.' We had to stay very close together. It was probably the smallest stage we've ever played on. And right in front of us was ice, ice skaters, and we had to stay on that truck platform and the amplifiers were far off in the stands. I was told that two billion people could watch the Olympics on earth and that's sort of a big deal.
What was the mood like in the stadium?
You can't help but smile. There are people that are holding hands and putting their arms around each other who, if they went back to their countries or borders that separate them, wouldn't necessarily do that. And I'm using kind language. Elsewhere, enemies in the Olympics unite over a bigger idea than borders and separation of people.
Are you a big Olympic Games fan?
I'm a big fan of athletes. You may not necessarily be a golf fan, but when you see somebody like Tiger Woods at the height of his power you can't but be amazed by it. You might not be a boxing fan and you see someone like (Muhammad) Ali or (Mike) Tyson in their prime, you're awed by the athleticism of it. It's always been stars that bring people to something. Golf wouldn't be golf without Tiger Woods. And boxing wouldn't be boxing without Muhammad Ali, or Cassius Clay as he was known then.
Are the Olympics in tune with the ideals at a Kiss show?
Well, it's not a stretch to say the Olympics and Kiss believe in the same philosophies. One is that it's apolitical. What you or I may think of certain political leaders, your own prime minister, President Trump – that's not what it's about. It's a celebration of life. For those few hours with Kiss, our job is to make you forget about the traffic jams, or the fact your girlfriend is screaming at you for something you're completely unaware of. And likewise, the Olympics are not about politics. It's all-inclusive, and for those few hours that you're there it's about the spectacle of both the Olympics and Kiss. Do we ascribe and subscribe to make a complete spectacle out of ourselves? Damn right we do.
Is "Rock And Roll All Nite" the perfect song for an Olympic Games closing ceremony?
For one thing, everybody can sing it because it starts off with 'I'. There are lots of bands that use the word 'we', but there's nothing more powerful in the English language than 'I'. 'I' is the most important word because it's about the power of the individual. You can be black, white, old, young, male, female, whatever, but as soon as you say 'I' it completely defines what is the greatest allegiance you can have.
Does music have that power to bring people together like sport?
Music is more than music. It's the soundtrack to people's lives. When you stand to attention to your country, there's music. There's a theme song for nations. There are songs for the Olympics, songs for funerals, music in church. Life on earth without music would be just horrific.
