December 9, 1997
AS DARKNESS FELL, tensions continued to build between the Delta and Ranger commanders. Over the radio, they argued over where to best position the 99 men now scattered through the narrow streets around pilot Cliff Wolcott's downed Blackhawk.
Capt. Scott Miller, the Delta ground commander, wanted Capt. Mike Steele, the Ranger commander, to take the nearly two dozen men holed up with him and move a block north to where Miller had taken cover with his men. Steele was reluctant.
Lt. Col. Gary Harrell, the mission commander, radioed from his Blackhawk helicopter circling high over the city. He agreed with Miller that everyone should be gathered in one place near the crash site to form more effective crossfire zones and give helicopter gunships a better shot at the Somalian gunmen surrounding them. The Little Birds were making dazzling gun runs, raining brass links from the miniguns on their heads.
I know it's tough, said Harrell, and you're doing the best you can, but try to get everyone at one site and have one guy talking down there if you can.
Steele responded: OK. Hoo-ah.
He told a sergeant, Sean Watson, to get ready to move out. Watson immediately confronted his captain. Many enlisted men would lack the confidence to challenge their commanding officer, especially in battle, but Watson was a highly respected sergeant first class. He spoke bluntly.
``Hey, sir, uh-uh,'' he said. ``No way.''
Watson said he thought the idea was foolhardy. They could expect a hail of bullets and grenades the second they stepped out the door. They had five wounded men, two of whom would have to be carried. The body of Delta Sgt. First Class Earl Fillmore, who had been shot in the head, would also have to be hauled. Four men would have to carry each litter, making convenient cluster targets. Watson pointed out that it would take a lot to overrun their well-defended courtyard.
The Rangers listened nervously. To a man, they sided with Watson. They thought moving only invited more trouble when they had plenty already. Steele took a deep breath and reconsidered.
``I think you're right,'' he told Watson.
Steele conferred briefly with the D-boys in the courtyard, then relayed word to Miller:
Right now we're not going to be able to move, not with all these wounded.
Miller was perturbed. Technically, as he understood it, even though he and Steele were both captains, his D-boys were in charge on the ground. He wanted Steele and his men to move.
Steele did not consider Miller his superior officer. He relayed word to Miller, no, and suggested the question be settled by Col. Harrell. If Harrell said move, they'd move.
Harrell refused to decide the issue. He told both captains:
If you stay separated, I cannot support you as well. You're the guy on the ground, and you have to make the call.
Steele had made his call. He was not going to waste time arguing about it. He ignored Sgt. John Boswell when the Delta soldier offered him his headset and urged him to discuss the matter further with Miller.
Miller then made his own call. He ordered the Delta soldiers pinned down with Steele's men to move up and join him, leaving the Rangers behind. Steele was bitter, but he didn't try to stop them.
He watched as the D-boys lined up in the courtyard, preparing to make their dash out the door. Then the first group of four went charging out into the night. Gunfire exploded the instant they passed through the door. The whole neighborhood erupted. Within seconds, all four D-boys came flying back into the courtyard, tripping over the same metal doorway rim that had tripped up Steele earlier. They wound up in a heap on the ground, their gun barrels clinking together as they untangled.
Steele watched with mild amusement and satisfaction. Nobody was going anywhere.
Inside the stone house adjacent to the crash site, the men blew a hole in one of the walls and began moving the wounded and dead into the adjacent space. Through the new hole a Somalian woman in a flowing orange robe stepped in screaming words the men couldn't understand. When she stepped out, gunfire ripped through windows and openings. Then the woman came back, screamed more, and left. Again came the rain of gunfire.
``If that bitch comes back, I'm going to kill her,'' one of the D-boys grumbled.
She did, and he did.
Sgt. First Class Al Lamb helped moved CWO Donovan ``Bull'' Briley's body into the newly opened space. Briley had died in the crash of Wolcott's helicopter. When Lamb set Briley down, the copilot's head hit the wall with a mushy thud that sickened Lamb. He flattened him out so that when rigor mortis set in the body would not be folded at the waist. Lamb remembered seeing Briley the day before, running, wearing spandex shorts, a powerful man. He thought, Jesus, this is a sad day.
IN A COURTYARD less than 50 yards away, First Lt. Larry Perino, medic Kurt Schmid and others were taking turns sticking their fingers up inside Cpl. Jamie Smith's wound, trying to keep the severed femoral artery pinched shut. Smith had been in awful pain from a gunshot wound to his upper thigh, but a morphine drip had quieted him. He was still conscious, but barely. He looked pale and distant. Schmid kept telling Perino: ``We need help. He's not going to make it.''
Earlier in the evening, a Blackhawk had dropped fresh supplies of fluids and medicine, along with more ammunition. But Smith needed a doctor and a hospital.
Perino radioed down the block to Steele: Hey, Captain, we've got to get Smith out. He's getting worse.
Steele knew this was doubtful, but radioed Harrell and urged him to put a helicopter down in the wide intersection outside his doorway. Harrell was not encouraging. He said the resupply helicopter had been badly shot up and had barely made it out - and it had only hovered, not landed.
Even so, Steele could hear Harrell pleading with his superiors at the Joint Operations Center at the airport base. Harrell stressed that both Smith and Pfc. Carlos Rodriguez, who had been shot in the groin, were in critical condition. He asked about the quick reaction force, which was still being assembled at the base to drive into the city and smash through to the surrounded soldiers.
Harrell was insistent:
If the QRF [quick reaction force] does not get there soon, there will be more KIAs [killed in action] from previously received WIAs [wounded in action].
But to no avail. Rescue convoys had failed. The other helicopter crash site, Mike Durant's Blackhawk, had been overrun. The forces of warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid, fully mobilized, had dug trenches and erected burning barricades on all roads leading to Wolcott's crash site.
Harrell reluctantly delivered the verdict to Steele:
We are going to have to hold on the best we can with those casualties and hope the ground reaction force gets there on time.
Steele sadly passed the word to Perino: It's just too hot.
Perino took the news badly. It was one thing to weigh these matters rationally, but quite another to have a young man's blood splashed all over your hands and arms, to have your fingers up inside his wound, feeling his life ebbing away.
They had pushed as much fluid from the resupply into Smith as they could, but he needed blood.
Perino could tell that even though Smith had become weak and silent, he was still alert enough to be very scared. His father, James Sr., had been a Ranger in Vietnam and had lost a leg in battle. He had tried, before Jamie enlisted, to instill a respectful fear of combat into his son, describing in graphic detail the horrors he had seen in Vietnam.
Jamie had grown up wanting to be nothing but a Ranger. As a boy, he had sometimes worn his father's old Army jacket to school in Long Valley, N.J. His younger brother, Matt, was planning to enlist and enter Ranger school.
Three years earlier, when he was still in basic training, Jamie had written to his father: ``Today while walking back from lunch I saw two Rangers walking through the company area. It's the dream of being one of those guys in faded fatigues and a black beret that keeps me going.''
Now the life was flowing from him. There was nothing more Perino and Schmid could do.
Not long after the refusal of the helicopter, Perino radioed Steele: Don't worry about the Medivac, sir. It's too late.
The news was broadcast over the command net: One of the critical WIAs has just been KIA.

If you've ever been schooled by an Unleash the Hounds Hunter or Mage Freeze deck in Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, you can now relive those "fond" memories thanks to a short "History of the Hearthstone Meta" video recently created by Blizzard.
The video talks about some of the maybe-a-bit-too-powerful decks that dominated the Hearthstone scene, some coming during beta and some after launch, and what kind of steps the team made to counter them. Combine that analysis with the enthusiasm practically oozing out of Senior Game Designer Ben Brode's ears, and it's an entertaining trip down memory lane — or nightmare street, depending on whether you used these decks or had them used against you.
What are your favorite (or least favorite) memories of Hearthstone decks?

How does a child react when interacting with an animal? Smiling, the entire body filled with enthusiasm and exhilaration? Small fingers enjoying and learning from the experience of touching the pet's fur? Watchful eyes fixed on the animal and, you just know it, questions about to start pouring?
Or perhaps a child may close his eyes to feel the pet he is holding, to become one with it... "I am a horse..." "I am a rabbit..." "I am a lion cub on the African plains..." "I am alive!" Children, just like animals, live in the present; where the heart pulsates and the wind is fragrant, if only you pay attention.
When a child meets an animal, there is a much stronger connection that takes place. It goes beyond the sensory or the visual stimulation of touching and observing. For a child, being in the company of an animal is more significant than the educational lesson adults want them to take from it.
A biological connection is already in place when a child and an animal meet. Be it an animal or an insect, just by being different to us, they a child's attention –– in most cases, to stir his or her caring and nurturing instinct. Children have it in their hearts: the empathy, the understanding that what is small needs to be protected, as well as the desire and the need to look after it and nurture it.
As Kahlil Gibran put it, "Your children are not your children; they are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself."
Human's interest in animals is wired into our DNA.
"Biophilia" was defined in 1984 by E.O.Wilson as "the innate tendency [in human beings] to focus on life and lifelike process. To an extent still undervalued in philosophy and religion, our existence depends on this propensity, our spirit is woven from it, hopes rises on its currents". The disposition towards nature and the living is prominent in youngsters. Children flourish when they are outdoors, especially when interacting with living animals.
Children value creatures for what they really are, alive. A kid connects with a ladybird just as well as she bonds with a kitten or a horse. When we take our children to the zoo, the link (unseen, between children and animals) is already in place.
The invisible wire is what keeps our youngster glued to the cage of an elephant, or the aquarium and its penguins. The child has "seen" more than the animal in its natural habitat. He treasures and celebrates having met another living being. And this moment often becomes one of a child's most treasured memories.
What is different from us should and can be treasured, just because it is puzzling and thrilling and, at the same time, stimulating.
Think about how much children enjoy stories about animals. Why is that? Wild animals live in "shelters" that are different from ours, and which they build themselves! Animals find their own, food and it is often strange-looking and so different from ours. Animals can do so many other things we haven't seen any human being doing. Animals choose their own special lives, and we are but blessed to be a part of them –– to observe and enjoy them.
If this is not enough, there is also an added benefit to children's natural bond with living things. Studies show that when a child's innate love and care towards nature is being nurtured and encouraged, it not only fuels the child's inner desire to learn, but in the long run, it develops the child emotionally.
Children who are understood and encouraged to care for animals will grow into thoughtful adults with a higher EQ (Emotional Quotient). An individual with a high EQ will be better able to recognise and express their own emotions, as well as the emotions of those around them. They will be able to easily put them into words and analyse them, then react in consequence –– a vital task in improving our social skills and, by extension, the social welfare of each generation.

Are there a lot of TV presenting jobs avaliable in Auckland?
Asked 29 Jul 2014 by Marianne L
Tagged with Television Presenter
HI Marianna,
Unfortunately there are very few television presenting jobs the country over. There is also a very large number of people interested in being in this industry which makes it even harder to get involved.
Often presenters trying to get into this kind of role will start off as journalists or involved in the media industry in another way, so these could be other avenues for you to explore.
Good luck!

Or at least back from Egypt :)
I made two cards the week before I left, but didn't have time to share them.
I made this first card for the birth of the first baby of one of my ex-colleagues. I made it big, so all of her colleagues could write their messages in there. And since we didn't know the sex of the baby (as usual :)) I made the card multi purpose ;)
The 'baby' letters are stuck on permanantly, the 'girl' and 'boy' options still had the backings of the dimensional adhesive on them, so that the correct 'option' could be stuck on. (by the way, it was a girl :))

Boom, Bust & You
-by Martin Matyas, Education Liaison
On January 20, 2016, I attended a workshop at Mount Royal University (MRU) called "Boom, Bust & You." The purpose of the presentation was to provide job-hunting skills in a soft economy and I picked up a few tidbits I thought I should share with you. Catherine Brownlee, headhunter at Catherine Brownlee Inc., led the workshop. She recommended the following tips for navigating tough economic times:
Carry Lots of Business Cards
Avoid the cheap-looking ones you make yourself at home on the printer and have your cards professionally made. Be sure any card you make indicates your job title and what kind of work you are looking for. And of course, don't use the business card of the company you just left!
Update Your LinkedIn Profile and Résumé
Remember what we learned from the April 2015 STC Alberta presentation on portfolios: formatting conveys your ability to organize and group information into a layout that makes it easy for readers to find what they want. Making your readers feel informed helps them remember you in a positive way.
Build a Circle of Trust
Build a circle of trust around you. If you keep an optimistic attitude, people will be more open to supporting you. Start with those closest to you – your family and friends. Then widen the circle to include professional associates. Part of widening this circle of trust includes handing out those business cards to people working in those areas you yourself want to work in.
Network Within Your Circle of Trust
You should spend around 90% of your time building your network, while using the remaining 10% of your time to respond to job postings.
Arrange for information meetings with the people in your circle. After the meeting, send them a thank you card. Yes, you read that correctly. Send them an old-fashioned, paper thank you card with a handwritten message. Because it's unexpected, the thank you card will be memorable. Fill it in, then drop it off in-person at the reception desk–if you can–where they work. Mailing it is another easy option. Naturally, it will stand out in the mail against the business-sized envelopes and probably make someone's day because you took the time to recognize their efforts. An email is just too easy for the recipient to ignore or forget. You can even find professional-looking blank cards for a great price at the dollar store!
Build Your Employability
Take time to put extra tools in your toolbox of employability. If the oil and gas industry is no longer working for you, programs from MRU's Continuing Education department may be your ticket into something new. University enrolment generally increases during hard economic times as people look to increase their skillset and employability.
After the presentation, we had the opportunity to attend various 20-minute information sessions on certificate programs for several subjects at MRU including technical writing, business analysis, project management, change management, and leadership. Many of these programs can be completed online or in a class. If you choose to take a class, remember it's a golden opportunity to keep building your network.
In the Ross Glen Hall, booths were set up and representatives from various academic disciplines were on hand to answer questions about learning opportunities in languages, leadership and marketing, oil and gas, and a dozen more areas. The biggest question I had was whether I should take credit-free courses or reapply to get into an accredited program.
Credit Free Courses
In speaking to a representative, I learned that Continuing Education courses, also known as credit-free courses, have the advantage that you may have the choice of taking fast-track courses, which are courses with accelerated schedules that let you finish quicker. Many of them are available online.
Credit Courses
Credit courses have the advantage that you receive credit that can be applied towards a degree or another certificate. Before registering, take the time to add up all the costs and evaluate the amount of time it takes to reach an academic goal. If you take this route, you become part of the rich campus life that includes Student Union activities. You also gain access to the gym and pool (at additional cost in your tuition) and to computer labs. Many students take advantage of the numerous scholarships and bursaries offered to full-time student, one being the STC Alberta Scholarship.
It's your choice, so make a few phone calls and even visit the campus in person. I got hooked on technical writing when a friendly professor offered to take me on a tour of MRU's Centre of Communication Studies.

Scripture: For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb--- Psalms 139:13
Devotional: God's word tells us that the work in the womb is His. That work of creating a human life began at the moment of conception. he prophet Jeremiah tells us in Jeremiah 1:4-5:
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: "Before
I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were
born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to
the nations."
Determining when human life begins is and should be above any government leader's pay grade. God has reserved some decisions for Himself. No where in His Holy Word has He delegated that authority to any government or national leader.
"We the People"do not need for our President to answer that difficult question for us, nor do we ourselves need to resolve the difficult question of when life begins, because God has already done that for us. God's word clearly defines the work in the womb His. Abortion disrupts the work of God in the womb.
Prayer: Father, help us today as individuals and as a nation to recognize that human life is your creation. Bring conviction and repentance to the leaders that have allowed this horrible act of abortion to be declared "a woman's right", and a necessary part of women's health care. Bring conviction and repentance to those of us that have remained silent while this holocaust continues in our nation. Give us eyes that see, ears that hear, and courage to speak out against this crime against our most defenseless human beings and against you. May we turn to you for the forgiveness and healing that only you can give. In the name of your precious Son, Jesus, we ask these things, always. Amen.

Andy's 40th Birthday!
Yesterday was my son Andy's 40th birthday. Usually, birthdays and anniversaries come and go, but round numbers seem to present milestones that cause reflection.
This reflection is not about Andy, but about the passage of time for me. It seems that just yesterday I was contemplating my own 40th birthday. I was never that big on birthdays and round number dates passed like any other birthday. However, a few months before my 40th birthday it dawned on me that I was going to be 40… and a sort of "funk" seeped in.
I did a lot of reflection and felt that if I was going to make any changes that would be the time. I had a happy growing family, a successful CPA practice, and was satisfied with my situation. But, if there was something else out there for me, this would have been the time to make a change. Being methodical, I started listing all my alternatives and possibilities, and assessing the happiness and fun potential and the financial opportunities. It was a nine month process that had me deciding that what I was doing was what I wanted to do. I did make some changes in my practice becoming more entrepreneurial and expanding client services and staff training (with the support of Sy and Paul, my two partners), and the firm grew even bigger and more profitable. BTW, I still have those pages.
Now, 31 years later, I am able to look back at a great trip with no regrets. I have had a happy time with a great wife and family, great partners, clients and friends. But, while looking back raises fond memories, it is looking forward that creates the excitement. I am still active in consulting, performing business valuations and financial and succession planning for clients, but at a stage where I can pick and choose the most interesting assignments, and have much time for writing, teaching, mentoring and seeking opportunities to give back. I also have time to "play" with my stamps, become engrossed in my other hobbies and charitable activities. There is a lot more to come for me.
Andy's birthday is also super significant to me because that is the day Ronnie and I became parents. I remember every second of that day. Less than two minutes after he was born I was holding him in my arms, counting his fingers and praying to God that he would be healthy and grow up believing in Him. Andy's life is on track, and so is mine.
Happy Birthday, Andy. God Bless you!

Hi Andy I wish you a very happy birthday and you realized all your dreams.

Please wish Andy a happy birthday from all of the Seewalds. It seems like only yesterday that Andy was playing with our sons. Time passes too quickly, but like you, we are glad to be parents and see our children grow up into adulthood.

It's not uncommon to hear sighs and frustrated comments from individuals eager to lavish in the works and wonders of God. They often complain that living a Godly life is too hard… "I don't think i can do this" they say.
Well, if you were planning to quit and hopping to the nearest bar to knock yourself out with a full bottle of Spyritus Vodka (oh yes, i know some names) please think again. The perceptions you are having about the christian walk are misconstrued.
Being spiritual, just as the word implies, means being more spirit filled. Man is a spirit being: the body is the casing that holds the actual man on earth. When we decide to use our own strength and flesh to be "christian" we deem it impossible or simply too difficult but when we rely on God's strength… now that's a different story.
See, God's strength is made more and more readily available as you and I, as human beings, become more spirit filled. Why? Well, God is a spirit, He would only relate to us in spirit as he prefers that we do same.
Romans 8:4 says for as many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Romans 8:16: the spirit Himself beareth witness with our spirits that we are children of God
Proverbs 20:27: the spirit of man is the candle of the lord searching all the inward parts of the belly
Our inability to cope with the christian walk is because we seek guidance and strength via our physical senses. Unfortunately, there is nowhere in the Bible which claims God guides us through our physical senses. The Bible does not say that the body of man is the candle of the Lord nor does it say the mind of man is… its says:
God will guide, enlighten and strengthen us through our spirits. When this happens, walking faithfully and diligently in Gods word becomes easy. Strengthen your spirit man.

The railroad. Canal towpaths. Lumber yards. Highways running through the mountains and fields. Small towns settled by immigrants. Iron and steel mills.
They are all part of the rich history of Pennsylvania and all part of the HeritagePA areas.
Pennsylvania's Heritage areas are dedicated to preserving the history along with the natural resources and culture of the state, but may also be a little-known resource to many.
The HeritagePA areas are large geographical regions in the state that represent an important industrial era of its history and also encompass important cultural assets and natural and scenic resources so important to that particular area. There are 12 heritage areas in Pennsylvania and members of the HeritagePA Association that operates under the umbrella of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR).
The areas include: Allegheny Ridge Heritage Area; Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor; Endless Mountains Heritage Region; Lackawanna Heritage Valley National and State Heritage Area; Lincoln Highway Heritage Corridor; Lumber Region; National Road Heritage Corridor; Oil Region National Heritage Area; PA Route 6 Heritage Corridor; Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area; Schuylkill River National and State Heritage Area; and Susquehanna Gateway Heritage Area.
Of the 12 areas, five are also designated National Heritage Areas including the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, Rivers of Steel, Schuylkill River, the Oil Region and the Lackawanna area.
History of HeritagePA
The heritage program in Pennsylvania was formed in the late 1980s. The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) Bureau of Recreation and Conservation worked with the National Park Service in three planning projects that were aimed to preserve and interpret industrial areas that had been determined to be nationally significant, according to Allen Sachse, former Executive Director of Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor. Sachse still serves as a part-time advisor to the area.
The original three areas were the Steamtown National Historic Area (later to become Lackawanna Heritage Valley), Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor and Southwestern PA Industrial Heritage Commission. The projects each tied together various partners and community groups to promote and preserve the heritage of the area including 'telling the story' of the heritage for future generations, said Sachse.
"We believed that in order for any resident of Pennsylvania to understand the history of the state, they need to know where we came from – the Heritage areas allow us to preserve that story," he said.
The groups also recognized that the natural resources were important to the heritage as well.
As the projects evolved, the group began to look at models in other states to assist in creating a program for the entire state of Pennsylvania. DCA also sought input from various state agencies and, according to Sachse, a task force worked with community groups to move towards creating heritage projects.
Sachse said a report by the PA Historical and Museum Commission, Made In Pennsylvania, was used as a guide to define the role and relationships of industry, landscape and the people. The project continued to evolve and gained the support of the then governor, the late Bob Casey. In 1989, the Heritage Parks Program came to be. The program is now administered by DCNR.
The program's name was changed to Heritage Areas when people were confused and looking for parks according to one of the "founding fathers" of the program, Alan Chace, coordinator of HeritagePA.
Why HeritagePA?
According to Chace, the program was created to tie together various entities to preserve and promote the resources and landscapes important to the history and industrial growth of our state and nation.
Jane Sheffield, president of the HeritagePA Association and executive director of the Allegheny Ridge Area, said there are five goals of the Heritage Program: to conserve historical and cultural resources; to conserve and enhance natural and recreational opportunities; to develop educational and interpretive resources; to help stimulate heritage tourism and economic development; and to establish partnerships between all resources including community leaders, businesses, non-profits, and government agencies to steward the advancement of the Heritage Areas.
The Heritage areas work with the other entities in each region to preserve and promote their areas to visitors and local community members alike.
"Pennsylvania is so rich in industrial heritage – all of the areas have an identified industry that they have been centered around, but it is also all of the aspects of the area," she said.
One of the key elements of the HeritagePA areas is to identify and help promote these resources for visitors and those who already live in the region.
"We want to add authenticity to visitors' trips. We develop the heritage of the region to give them a great sense of place, but also want them to be able to take advantage of recreational and cultural opportunities," said Sheffield.
What are the heritage areas of HeritagePA?
Lackawanna Heritage Valley National and State Heritage Area was the first, established in 1991. The area encompasses Lackawanna County and portions of Luzerne, Susquehanna and Wayne counties and includes the Steamtown National Historic site. The area focuses on the iron, anthracite coal, transportation and textile manufacturing heritage of the area while also highlighting the diverse ethnic traditions and recreational opportunities in the communities along the Lackawanna River.
Allegheny Ridge Heritage Area was established in 1992 and includes Cambria, Blair, Huntingdon, and Somerset counties. This area promotes and develops the communities along the Pittsburgh-to-Harrisburg Main Line Canal Greenway, a 320-mile long corridor following the historic Pennsylvania Main Line Canal. The Heritage Area's primary focus is on transportation, natural resources and outdoor recreation.
In 1993, Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor was created along the Corridor. The region included Luzerne, Carbon, Lehigh, Northampton and Bucks counties.
National Road Heritage Corridor, which includes Fayette and Washington counties and a portion of Somerset County, was established in 1994. This area promotes the National Road, a National Scenic Byway- All American Road and is one of the nation's oldest byways. The National Road is overlaid in some sections by U.S. Route 40.
The Oil Region National Heritage Area was also created in 1994 and honors the petroleum industry. It emphasizes Venango County and eastern Crawford County's legacy as the 1859 birthplace of the world's petroleum industry.
Lincoln Highway Heritage Corridor promotes the transportation heritage of part of the first transcontinental highway. Located in Adams, Franklin, Fulton, Bedford, Somerset and Westmoreland counties, this area is mostly (but not exclusively) along U.S. Route 30. This area was established in 1995.
Schuylkill River National and State Area, created in 1995, celebrates the American, industrial and environmental revolutions of the Schuylkill River Valley. Portions of Schuylkill, Berks, Chester and Montgomery Counties are represented as well as the City of Philadelphia.
In 1996, the Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area was established and focuses on the industrial heritage of Pittsburgh and southwestern Pennsylvania. The region pays homage to the iron, steel, coal and coke industries that played a major role in the country's heritage, also encompassing the cultural heritage and ethnic traditions of the immigrants who came to the U.S. to work in these industries. The heritage area includes: Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Greene, Washington and Westmoreland counties.
The Endless Mountains Heritage Region was founded in 1998 and highlights the legacy of people living with the land. Bradford, Sullivan, Susquehanna and Wyoming counties are included in the Endless Mountains Region.
The Lumber Heritage Region is quite large with a 15-county region that promotes the history and heritage of the people and their relationship with the forests of rural Pennsylvania. Cameron, Centre, Clearfield, Clinton, Elk, Jefferson, Lycoming, McKean, Potter, Tioga, Forest and Warren are included in this region with portions of Cambria, Clarion and Indiana counties. The Lumber Region was established in 2001.
Susquehanna Gateway Heritage Area was also created in 2001 and commemorates the role of the river in the cultural and natural heritage while also honoring the environmental and recreational assets of the area for visitors and residents alike. This region includes Lancaster and York counties.
The PA Route 6 Heritage Corridor was the most recent HeritagePA region, instituted in 2005. This region includes Crawford, Erie, Warren, McKean, Potter, Tioga, Bradford, Wyoming, Lackawanna, Pike and Wayne counties. The PA Route 6 Heritage Corridor promotes the assets of one of the nation's first transcontinental highways while sustaining and enhancing the small, rural communities linked by the highways. US Route 6 crosses the state of Pennsylvania.
HeritagePA Regions continue to expand and to promote their specific areas and assets. The program has developed into a model for other states while enhancing the state of Pennsylvania for not only visitors, but for those who already call the state "home."

Nightwood has a new book on our shelf from maritime poet Danny Jacobs. Copies of his debut poetry collection, Songs That Remind Us of Factories, arrived last week and are now available for purchase from the Nightwood book page or at Harbour Publishing.
The poems in Songs that Remind Us of Factories explore how we remain connected: to the world outside, to our ideas of home, to each other, and to ourselves. In their searching, these magpie poems strike a balance between wound language and quiet meditation, the arched-brow wisecrack and the emotionally frank gesture. The result is an honest and playful sequence of poems that plumb our myriad reactions when small wildernesses occasionally come inside.
Danny Jacobs grew up in Riverview, NB. His poems have been published in a variety of journals across Canada. After living in a number of cities and towns in the Maritimes, Danny is back in Riverview and works as the librarian in the village of Petitcodiac, NB. Songs That Remind Us of Factories is his first book.

Greg Welter
I've been married to Mary Ann for the last 40 years, so much of what you read in her bio also applies to me (e.g. 13 kids, Peace Corps service in the Yemen Arab Republic, most of our lives spent in Washington, DC) Mary Ann noted that we've been spending a fair amount of time in recent years involved in a cooperatively owned retreat facility (Still Point Mountain Retreat), which she serves part-time as manager, and I help out on maintenance and repairs.
Our interest in Shepherd Village is in participating in sustained, meaningful community. We're glad this will include a group of friends that we have known for the last thirty years and whose children grew up together. We share with them interests in societal issues, in the outdoor environment, and in spiritual enrichment.
I've long worked as an environmental engineer. In my free time, I enjoy reading (particularly in history and science), and spending time outdoors on work and recreation, and making new friends.
Mary Ann Welter
I'm a small-town, rural girl from Western Maryland who, by chance and choice, has spent nearly all my adult life living in Washington, D.C. or a scant block into Maryland. Radically different geography has certainly colored my world view. I'm equally drawn to the beach and the mountains. I've lived in tiny towns, ancient cities, and on a farm. I married Greg in 1973 to (among other things) join him as a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Yemen Arab Republic. I've gone swimming in the Red Sea, rode donkeys as transportation, grown my own food, lived in unusual dwellings, built community in diverse ways, including raising a huge family and laughing a lot (crying some, too). Greg and I have 13 kids through adoption, birth, and fostering, and three little grand boys. I work as a Learning Support Teacher at a Catholic High School in Takoma Park, MD. I don't look to retire anytime soon, though I may find myself tutoring young West Virginians.
My most significant community has been Circle Community Church, a ragtag tribe who met through Sojourners magazine and Community in DC in the late 70's/early 80's, raised our children together in D.C. and Mt. Rainier, Md., and bonded as life-long friends. For more than 20 years, we have been connected to Jefferson County, W. Va. through Rolling Ridge Study Retreat where we found a respite from the city for our young families, ways to nurture and challenge our spirits, and various ways to make the wilderness our home. My current wilderness home is Still Point Mountain Retreat which sits on 35 acres along two borders of Rolling Ridge Foundation's 1400-acre wilderness preserve and acres overlooks the Shenandoah. Our family is a co-owner of Still Point, and I manage its operations, giving me a great excuse to watch the river in all seasons, walk miles of trails, solve problems, and create community with partners and retreat guests.
Now that it's time to think about the next adventure, I'm drawn to doing something different, yet somehow very familiar — living in an unusual dwelling with people I love, laughing, learning, and working together to build a community with and for one another: Shepherd Village!

My baby won't go to sleep in my carrier
Jessaleigh had to wear her purple baby doll carrier because I was wearing Blythe in my purple baby carrier. After she complained about her baby doll (one with eyes that close when you lay it down) not going to sleep she asked me
"why does your baby go to sleep more easily in your carrier"
She cracks me up!
They would have to make a BIG jump
After seeing a new housing construction site a conversation started about "our next house"
Chanler and I were talking about things we wanted for our next house and I said I wanted a house without stairs (meaning one story) Then Jessaleigh pipes up from the back.
"They when they wanted to go up they would have to make a BIG jump."
Love the mental picture of a house that is two stories but has no stairs…

Sprite HO2-WH-M Shower Filter Review
- Removes chlorine and other harmful chemicals
- Promotes skin and hair health
- 3 spray settings
- Filter lasts 25,000 gallons
- Reversible filter cartridge
- Great water pressure
- Shower head can be removed from filter
- Doesn't look that great
- Plastic is prone to cracking
What's Good?
Removes chlorine and other harmful chemicals
The Sprite HO2-WH-M shower head filter does a great job of filtering out most of the chlorine from your water so you can rest easy knowing you're not being exposed to the harmful chemical. In addition, it also filters out hydrogen sulfide, which gives off that rotten egg smell. If you have an older home with outdated plumbing or depending on the area you live, you may have rusty pipes which can cause iron oxide to contaminate your water. Fortunately this filter takes care of that too, as well as any dirt or sediment that may be mixed in.
Promotes skin and hair health
Why is it important to remove the chlorine?
For starters, if you're really itchy after taking a shower it's because the chlorine is being absorbed through your skin. The heat from the water causes your pores to expand and chlorine to seep in, stripping your skin of its natural oils. It can cause your skin to dry out and crack which can lead to winkles and premature aging.
Chlorine affects hair the same way, by stripping it of it's natural oils, drying it out and making it brittle. This results in hair loss, shine and flexibility
The Sprite HO2-WH-M shower head filter eliminates all that stuff so your skin remains radiant and your hair soft and healthy.
3 spray settings
With three spray settings to indulge in there's something for everyone to enjoy. From a full body rainfall spray that envelopes you in a comforting blanket of water, to a powerful massage jet that will take care of any sore muscles after an intense workout or a grueling day at work. There's also a setting in between for when you want the best of both worlds.
Filter lasts 25,000 gallons
A shower filters job is to catch all the nasty stuff that lives in your water. But it can only hold so much, so naturally that filter needs to be replaced every now and then. Fortunately this cartridge is unmatched when it comes to the amount of water it can filter without replacement. It's good for about 25,000 gallons of water which is roughly one year of regular use.
Reversible filter cartridge
The filter cartridge will last about a year before you need to replace it but it is suggested that you flip it after six months to get the most out of it. It's pretty easy to do:
- Unscrew the cartridge housing (see below) from the dome-like piece that attaches to the shower arm.
- Remove the filter (see above) and flip it around.
- Put it back in and screw it back together.
That's all there is to it. You'll be set for another six months.
Shower head can be removed from filter
Lets face it. The Sprite HO2-WH-M shower filter isn't winning any beauty contests. Luckily if you aren't a fan of the look of it, you can just buy the filter and attach your own shower head. You'll enjoy the benefits of a clean and pure water supply while still matching your shower head to your bathroom decor. It's a win-win.
Water pressure unaffected
Even though the water has to go through a rigorous filtering process the pressure is not affected. So if your home has great water pressure you'll experience the same invigorating spray. But if you have low water pressure this shower head filter won't do anything to increase it. In that case you might want to buy just the filter and pair it with a high pressure shower head.
What's not so good?
Doesn't look that great
This shower head filter does exactly what it's supposed to do and that's it. It's a bit big and bulky. It's made of gaudy white plastic. What more can I say? This thing is the ugly duckling of the shower head world.
Plastic is prone to cracking
According to some Amazon.com reviewers, the plastic isn't the best quality and could crack under high pressure. Just keep that in mind.
The Verdict
If the only reason you're getting a shower head filter is to purify your water then the Sprite HO2-WH-M is up to the task. It removes chlorine and other nasty impurities that are all too common in most water sources. It filters 25,000 gallons of water before you need to change the filter – which is about once a year.
If, however, you want something that looks great you're better off looking elsewhere because this shower head filter isn't winning any awards for aesthetics. But it does the job.

The man in the green shirts son came to this Barbershop earlier in the day for a high top fade. The barber in question accidentally pushed his hairline back an inch exposing his forehead. His father was enraged and showed up to the shop to confront the individual who was paid to cut his sons hair. Nobody would confess to which barber was responsible so he just started knocking them out 1 by 1.
A barber (from the Latin barba, "beard") is a person whose occupation is mainly to cut, dress, groom, style and shave men's and boys' hair. A barber's place of work is known as a "barber shop" or a "barber's". Barber shops are also places of social interaction and public discourse. In some instances, barbershops are also public forums. They are the locations of open debates, voicing public concerns, and engaging citizens in discussions about contemporary issues. They were also influential in helping shape male identity. In previous times, barbers (known as barber surgeons) also performed surgery and dentistry. With the development of safety razors and the decreasing prevalence of beards, in English-speaking cultures, most barbers now specialize in cutting men's scalp hair as opposed to facial hair.
In modern times, the term "barber" is used both as a professional title and to refer to hairdressers who specialize in men's hair. Historically, all hairdressers were considered barbers. In the 20th century, the profession of cosmetology branched off from barbering, and today hairdressers may be licensed as either barbers or cosmetologists. Barbers differ with respect to where they work, which services they are licensed to provide, and what name they use to refer to themselves. Part of this terminology difference depends on the regulations in a given location.
Different states in the US vary on their labor and licensing laws. For example, in Maryland, a cosmetologist cannot use a straight razor, strictly reserved for barbers. In contrast, in New Jersey both are regulated by the State Board of Cosmetology and there is no longer a legal difference in barbers and cosmetologists, as they are issued the same license and can practice both the art of straight razor shaving, coloring, other chemical work and haircutting if they choose.
In Australia, the official term for a barber is hairdresser; barber is only a popular title for men's hairdressers, although not as popular now as it was in the middle of the 20th century. Most would work in a hairdressing salon. The barber's trade has a long history: razors have been found among relics of the Bronze Age (around 3500 BC) in Egypt. In ancient Egyptian culture, barbers were highly respected individuals. Priests and men of medicine are the earliest recorded examples of barbers.[1] Men in Ancient Greece would have their beards, hair, and fingernails trimmed and styled by the κουρεύς (cureus), in an agora (market place) which also served as a social gathering for debates and gossip.

Kansas City officials face a pretty big referendum soon, and not about a new airport terminal.
Missouri law requires the city to hold an election on its 1 percent earnings tax by next spring. Voters must approve the tax for another five years or it goes away over a 10-year period.
The tax passed easily in 2011, but city honchos are fidgeting. At Monday's announcement of a new plan for a downtown hotel, several people said they were more focused on the earnings tax renewal in 2016 than any possible vote on a new terminal.
If anyone caught the dissonance of arguing for an earnings tax renewal while discussing massive hotel tax breaks, I didn't hear it.

It's often said projects like the hotel or the new East Side grocery store don't cost taxpayers anything. Construction costs are paid for by capturing the new taxes created by the projects, supporters say, not any existing public revenue. It's a win for everyone.
But the claim always crumbles when it bumps against reality. Here's why.
If your home or business catches fire, the fire department puts it out. That's why you pay taxes, to support a service the community needs.
But let's say the new grocery store catches fire. The fire department still shows up, but the store isn't paying the cost — its taxes have been diverted for construction expenses. Someone else has to pay for the fire department and the new truck it bought to protect the new store.
That someone is you.
Now you know why the earnings tax is so important. Kansas City must raise its funds from residents and workers to pay for essential services that favored businesses don't fully support.
City Hall says the trade-off is worth it. The new hotel will provide thousands of jobs and could bring in visitors who spend cash and leave sales tax dollars behind. The new grocery store means better food and more convenience for an underserved neighborhood. Those are good things.
Yet each of us might make the same argument about a lower earnings tax. Put some extra cash in my pocket and I'll buy a Kansas City lunch more often or find a new sofa. Those activities increase employment and sales tax revenue too.
Handing out tax incentives to grocers and hotel investors isn't necessarily bad. Handing out tax incentives, then claiming regular people don't deserve a similar break, is a tougher political case to make.
You'll hear it from city officials, though, sometime soon.

For the second time, Nicole Eisenman's fountain piece for Skulptur Projekte Münster has been vandalized. The artist and the online magazine Alles Münster are reporting that the piece, Sketch for a Fountain (2017), a plaster and bronze fountain made up of four androgynous figures, was spray-painted with a swastika, a phallus, and other imagery on Friday night. The police are investigating.
On her private Facebook page, Eisenman posted a note discussing the incident in relation to the rise of the AfD—the far-right Alternative for Germany party—ahead of the upcoming German election. Her message, which she has given ARTnews permission to reprint, reads:
"Last night my piece in Skulptur Projekte Münster was spray painted with a swastika and further vandalized, they broke the fountain pumps. This, on the eve of the election in Germany where its predicted that the AfD will enter the German Parliament for the first time… real Nazis in the German Reichstag for the first time since the end of World War Two."
Earlier this summer, in July, Eisenman's work, which is situated on the city's well-trafficked promenade, was damaged after an attack, with the head of one of the figures cut off.
Sarah Douglas and Alex Greenberger contributed reporting.

Their stories were amazing as always; but with the thought of seeing their principal on Halloween night, they came up with absolutely wonderful tales. However, they were also equally involved in designing their illustrations for what he may look like dressed up in his costume.
I made copies of our principals head, glued them onto 3 ft x 4 ft white butcher block paper and allowed the students to design his costume after they had completed their story.
I've included a link to the "Freebie" resource below if you'd like to try this in your classroom.

Here at PRX, we're all about spreading public radio far and wide. Well, we really did it this time.
This release went out this morning:
With 1.5 Million Downloads, Public Radio Feels the Love From iPhone Users
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 8 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Just 17 weeks after launch, the Public Radio Tuner application for the iPhone has been downloaded more than 1.5 million times. Thanks to the iPhone community's enthusiasm, the Tuner cracked the top 10 free music apps soon after launch, and has been the top free app on all of iTunes.
Learn more at http://www.publicradiotuner.org.
The Public Radio Tuner comes from a unique collaboration of major public radio organizations:
- American Public Media (APM)
- National Public Radio (NPR)
- Public Radio Exchange (PRX)
- Public Interactive (PI)
- Public Radio International (PRI)
The project is led by Public Radio Exchange (http://www.prx.org) and supported by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
"The Public Radio Tuner has clearly struck a chord with iPhone users," says PRX Executive Director Jake Shapiro. "The app is expanding the audience for local public radio stations and national programs, and is a great example of a successful collaboration and innovation in public media."
For the Public Radio Tuner project, CPB and the collaborators have brought together the collective talents and resources of the public radio system to reach existing listeners on a state-of-the-art platform while attracting new listeners, too.
Stations across the United States value their presence in the app. "The Public Radio Tuner helps us expand our reach into areas of Georgia that aren't covered by our airwaves. It fits into GPB's overall goal of expanding its reach through new technologies." — Susanna Capelouto, News Director, Georgia Public Broadcasting
The Public Radio Tuner allows anyone with an iPhone or iPod Touch to listen to more than 300 U.S. station streams. It has the features iPhone users expect from any "tuner" application — search, a favorites list, and fast loading times. What sets this Tuner apart is a listening experience custom-made for public radio's high-quality, diverse content. Listeners can hear their stations' broadcasts of their favorite shows, from "This American Life" to "Morning Edition", along with local news and music. With over 800 public and community radio stations in the United States, new streams are added all the time.
Coming up in June 2009: The Public Radio Player, with a program guide, enhanced search, and on-demand content. Additional mobile platforms, such as Google's Android, RIM's BlackBerry, and the Palm Pre, are under consideration.

Homeless man fondled self while watching kids play, deputies say
By Kevin P. Connolly, Staff Writer
August 19, 2014
A homeless man in Osceola County is accused of touching himself while watching children at a Kissimmee apartment-complex playground, deputies said Tuesday. Michael Desselles, 30, was charged with lewd and lascivious behavior and booked into the Osceola County Jail. Deputies went to Victory Village Apartments, 4596 W. Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, just before 8 p.m. Monday. Two mothers said a man was inappropriately touching himself while watching their children play on the playground.

I'm ticked off that the mayor of my town keeps his trashcan next to his mailbox instead of removing it from the curb like the rest of the town's citizens. I'm ticked off that I wasn't in the post office to see that woman with the completely see-through shirt. Who told you those short shorts and short skirts look good on you, ladies? You might want to get a rear-view mirror! I'm ticked off at the woman wearing my red silk jacket and Italian perfume, knowing they came from a lying jerk who stole it. Bad Karma to both of you. I'm ticked off at NBA players and all professional sports players with tattoos.
Years after 9-11, war's kids can't bury parents' loss

August 18, 2014
Before Brandi Anderson begins her senior year at Warner Christian Academy in South Daytona this morning, she'll stuff pencils, paper, and other supplies into a blue and pink-flowered rucksack. Not that her backpack is the only baggage she carries. A soul collects much in 10 years. Ten years of unfulfilled memories. Ten years of not being the adored princess. Ten years of looking up into emptiness and not the face of the man who loved her in a way that no other man ever could.

I'm ticked off at the young people who don't think those of us who worked all our lives and got to the age of retirement after paying into social security all those years don't think we deserve more than a 1.5 percent increase. This is not a so called entitlement situation, this is money we paid into after working all our lives and now a lot of people who don't work think they should be given money because they are entitled. We did raise our children and helped raise our grandchildren and we still help when they need it, so don't say we aren't entitled, we are simply because we earned it!
Ticked off! @ kids, "buddy"
Ticked Off! and Diversions
March 13, 2014
I'm ticked off at waiters and fast-food workers who call me "buddy. " I am a middle-aged professional man. I am not your buddy. I'm ticked off because local law enforcement departments, apparently, do not equip their patrol cars with directional signals, rear view mirrors, or speedometers. I thought police and sheriffs were supposed to obey the same laws that they are authorized to enforce, or is this just their way of showing the public how not to drive? I'm ticked off that I have to be around a person that every sentence starts with "I" and no interpersonal skills, whatsoever, and talks to adults, worse than I would ever talk to a child.
My Word: Let kids be kids, not pitchmen
By George Romer
January 20, 2010
Recently, I have noticed an annoying trend in local advertising. It starts every morning when I turn on my radio on my way to work, and it doesn't stop until I turn off the television every night. This constant nuisance is children. Don't get me wrong. I love children. I have two wonderful kids of my own. Even the neighborhood children make me smile sometimes. But these aren't the children to whom I am referring. I am speaking of the kids who yell at me on my radio and whose obnoxious voices invade my living room as I watch TV, telling me that they want to see me in a Kia or that they offer same-day appliance delivery.
Kids deserve a voice
February 24, 2010
Now, with lawmakers looking for ways to fill a $3 billion budget hole, GAL faces a potential double-digit cut even though the thrifty program serves about 23,000 kids using 14 trained volunteers for every paid staffer. Legislators would be foolish to again gut such a cost-effective and badly needed program. Doing so would rob thousands more disenfranchised kids of an adult voice to speak up for them. Guardians ad Litem are appointed to represent in court endangered children who have been removed from potentially sketchy homes and placed in state care.
Karate teacher fights for kids' futures
By Darryl Owens, Sentinel Columnist
February 23, 2008
Chatter fills the gym as kids in the after-school program at Restore Orlando do homework. A man in white enters. He wields his booming voice like a cop to quiet the roar. "Listen. It's time to be still. It's time to focus." The roar fades like smoke. "Repeat after me. I will . . . " "Honor God," the kids shout. "I will . . . " "Honor my father and mother." "I will . . . " "Be humble. "I will . . . " "Seek knowledge." "I am . . . " "Somebody!" And when they say it, you believe they believe it. The man in white, David Washington, is betting the future that they do. As a New York City cop, he locked up enough minorities to reach an epiphany: "Jail is not the answer," says Washington, 54, of Orlando.
Back-to-school fair helps parents and kids

Kindergartner Isaiah Brazell, 5, sat patiently for a back-to-school haircut Saturday as volunteer barber Cliff Colston wielded his clippers. Nearby, Isaiah's mother, Yolanda Robinson, waited with other parents whose children were getting free haircuts at the annual "School Days Are Here Again" health-and-education fair at Barnett Park Recreation Center in Pine Hills. The fair, organized by Florida Sen. Geraldine Thompson, D-Orlando, and Orange County Commissioner Tiffany Moore Russell, was designed to help parents who don't have an abundance of resources.

Mount Dora firefighters cool off kids during Water Day
August 11, 2014
MOUNT DORA - Kids and water go together like bread and butter, mom and apple pie, baseball and hot dogs. You get the idea. Get out a hose and watch 'em yelp and scamper about. That was the scene, above and below left, on a recent sweltering day at the W.T. Bland Public Library, when firefighters cooled off the young set with a little H2O. It was all part of Water Day. Kids from kindergarten through fifth grade were invited to get a thorough soaking. But there will be no soaking again today at the Tavares Splash Park.

Meyer of Casselberry has other skills that can also elicit smiles, such as her prowess at balloon sculptures, including, above, a "self-portrait" she produced. She and Esposito of Orlando regaled the kids and Marty Scott of the Scott Clown Family discussed her family's experiences traveling with and attending Ringling Clown College.
Ticked off! @ job ads, kids
Ticked Off! and Diversions
November 5, 2013
I'm ticked off that there are so many "job advertisements," yet so few real jobs; even the actual employer web sites are just "stocking" a load of applications. I'm ticked off at commercials. We don't want to buy a car, a mattress or a fence. Get those annoying commercials off TV. We are thinking about Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm ticked off at shorts. When did shorts not become shorts anymore? If I wanted to wear a skirt, I'd go buy a skirt! I'm ticked off at the Orlando theme park that charges extra to celebrate Halloween.
Surgeon 'straightens out' kids with uneven legs, arms
By Marni Jameson, Orlando Sentinel
August 10, 2014
Liliana Perez was a happy, healthy 13-year-old girl with one problem: She needed to get straightened out. Literally. The Kissimmee teen's right leg was one inch longer than her left. One inch may not seem like a lot, but it was enough to give the 5-foot-5 adolescent a lopsided look, an uneven step, and physical and social discomfort. "I couldn't run. I couldn't do anything like that. I felt weird around the other girls," Liliana said. Plus her back hurt. "The only way I could get comfortable was to lie on the floor," she said.
Educational Foundation gives backpacks to 3,000 kids from struggling families

August 8, 2014
TAVARES - Students often retire their tattered backpacks from the year before as classes are about to begin again. Unfortunately, many struggling families don't have the money to spring for new backpacks. That's where the Educational Foundation of Lake County comes in. The foundation held its 20th annual Back to School fairs in Tavares, Leesburg and Clermont this week. More than 3,000 students from low-income families who receive free lunch in grades in K-5 received backpacks and supplies as well as hats and shirts donated by Walt Disney World.

Carey Bell
(November 14, 1936 - May 6, 2007)
His place on the honor roll of Chicago blues harpists long ago assured, Carey Bell truly came into his own in the '90s as a bandleader with terrific discs for Alligator Records and Blind Pig Records. He learned his distinctive harmonica riffs from the Windy City's very best (both Walters -- Little and Big -- as well as Sonny Boy Williamson II), adding his own signature effects for good measure. An otherworldly moan immediately identifies many of his more memorable harp rides. Bell served invaluable early-'70s stints in the bands of Muddy Waters and Willie Dixon, touring extensively and recording with both legends. Alligator Records has been responsible for much of Bell's best recorded work as a leader, beginning with a joint venture with Horton back in 1972. Four cuts by Bell on the first batch of Alligator's Living Chicago Blues anthologies in 1978 preceded his participation in the 1990 harmonica summit meeting Harp Attack!, which brought him into the studio with fellow greats James Cotton, Junior Wells, and Billy Branch. His solo set for Alligator, Deep Down, rates as his finest album. Bell has sired a crew of blues-playing offspring; best-known of the brood is mercurial guitarist Lurrie Bell.
