Thank you again and again for your help. I got into 7 colleges and know my essay made the difference!
I FELT LUCKY my sophomore year at Lexington High School because Frank, a cute boy I'd dated three or four times, invited me to his junior prom. Looking back, all I can picture is a sea of yellow: the ugly lemon-colored chiffon gown my mother insisted I wear, the bouquet of daisies and baby's breath Frank awkwardly handed me, and the carnation I inexpertly pinned to the lapel of his white tuxedo with the pale yellow cummerbund.
That moment on my parents' doorstep, with their camera bulbs flashing, was the beginning of the end. Frank spent most of the night sitting at a table with his friends. Without me. So I plunked myself down with my friends, prom king Jim and prom queen Sally, and spent most of the night stirring my Coke.
No surprise, that was Frank's and my last date, yet as I said, I felt lucky he invited me to his prom, because the next year, when Bob asked Mary and Doug asked Kathy and all the matches were made for my junior prom, I waited for an invitation that never came.
It wasn't that I wasn't pretty, or well-liked, or never dated, and I looked good in all the short skirts and low-hipped jeans styles of the era.
But I am Jewish, and back then that was still considered something freakish. The Christian boys I hung out with, who years later revealed their attraction to me, weren't willing to risk being teased to ask me out. At least that's the excuse I've always clung to.
So on the night of the prom, I joined my friends Marianne and Lisa — one too tall, one too short, and thus uninvited, too — in an evening of make-believe: making believe we didn't care that our friends were dancing to "He's So Fine" while we stuffed chips in our faces.
While our friends danced to "So Happy Together," Marianne, my "tall" friend, and I doubled up to baby-sit, sharing the popcorn, the profits, and our pain. Lisa, my "short" friend, made it to this prom.
Feeling an adolescent-like horror that people were probably watching and snickering, I hushed him. "You're embarrassing me," I said.
"I'm feeling really good that I'm here with you, holding you tight," he responded, ignoring my self-consciousness. He continued to sing, undaunted.
Across the ballroom, my friend Lisa, the "short" one, joyously danced the twist with her best friend who had long moved away. Each came sans husband to party together unencumbered. Noticeably absent was my "tall" friend, Marianne, busy elsewhere with her wonderful husband and four children. She no sooner wanted to attend the reunion than sign up for a time-tunnel trip to the 1970s. Jim and Sally, the former prom king and queen, broke up just after graduating from high school. They no longer speak.
As for me, I married that man who sang to me at my high school reunion that night, because between his shameless choruses, I realized he would love me far longer than one night at a reunion or at a junior or senior prom, and he would stay with me no matter what, whereas my first one bailed at the first sight of stress.
We are raising two daughters, one from his first marriage, another from mine. We raise his Catholic and mine Jewish; somehow, it works. His daughter is just past prom age; mine about to enter the scene. Although kids today attend with a friend, or in a group, not necessarily with a date, prom time still stands as an anguishing measurement of high school success in love. Pity. Truly a pity.

Tesla Model 3: a look at the center screen's user interface
- Jun. 14th 2017 7:57 am PT
The lack of instrument cluster in the Tesla Model 3 might be its most controversial feature. It helped create rumors of a head-up display (HUD) fueled by Elon Musk's comment that the steering controls will feel "like a spaceship".
But one thing that it created for sure is an interesting problem for the user interface of the center screen, which now has to display information generally shown on the instrument cluster.
We started getting a pretty good idea of the UI with the first few pictures of the Model 3 release candidates, but new pictures are furthering our understanding of the feature.
When Musk killed the idea of a HUD in March, he also said that Tesla Model 3's user interface is designed with self-driving in mind.
It made it sound like the UI will be subpar for actual drivers until full self-driving is available, but Musk insisted that drivers "will not care". How?
New renders from Electrek commenter Moin Uddin helps us understand. They recreated the UI using recent rare pictures of a parked Model 3 release candidate without the screen being covered:
A few things to keep in mind here are that the vehicle was clearly in developer mode and therefore, the right side of the screen is not something that end users are likely going to see.
Also, the vehicle was parked when the pictures were taken and therefore, the left side of the screen likely represents the UI when parked. It's likely going to be different when the car is in motion and we see the "navigate" button on that side of the screen, which seems to indicate the map would appear in that section.
Interestingly, we see the top left section where Tesla seems to plan to show the instrument cluster information – like we have seen on the original pre-alpha Model 3 prototype:
Musk confirmed earlier this year that the opacity of the information that will be displayed on this overlayed section of the center screen will change "according to relevance":
On center screen. Also, center screen *will* show speed as an overlay that changes opacity according to relevance.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 29, 2017
Hopefully, it will be customizable and drivers will be able to adjust the UI to the preferences.
As usual, what we see on the release candidates don't always translate to the production version since they are being tested at different stages of readiness. But that's our best look so far and we might have to wait until July for anything better.
Let us know what you think of the Model 3 UI so far in the comment section below.

St. Alban's Abbey, Mainz (Stift St. Alban vor Mainz) originated as a Benedictine abbey, founded in 787 or 796 by Archbishop Richulf (787–813) in honour of Saint Alban of Mainz, located to the south of Mainz on the hill later called the Albansberg. It was turned into a collegiate foundation (Herrenstift) in 1442. The buildings were entirely destroyed in 1552, although the foundation retained a legal existence until its formal dissolution in 1802.

The abbey was initially renowned for its school, "famous for its teaching and its piety" (pietate doctrinaque inclinitum)  and for its beautiful church. The school was the origin of the Carolingian court school. One of its famous teachers was Rabanus Maurus, born c 780 in Mainz. The importance of the place was reflected in the extraordinary size of the hall. The church was inaugurated on 1 December 805 by Richulf and remained the largest church of Mainz until construction of Mainz Cathedral was begun by Willigis.

History

The abbey was founded near the basilica of Saint Alban founded in 413 and developed as part of the Carolingian Renaissance.

The oldest church on the site was erected during the late Roman period and was a building with a single nave, with an area of exactly 50 by 100 Roman feet. In 805 the Carolingian basilica was consecrated, comprising three naves, but possibly originally without the transept and the two apses. At the western end was a hall the same size as the main nave, above which was a chapel of St. Michael. The two western towers, known from later illustrations, were added in the Romanesque period. The Gothic choir,  erected between 1300 and 1500, was extraordinarily large. The floor plan of Schloss Johannisberg, originally  built as a monastery, reflects a similar construction, because St. Alban's was its mother house. The abbey kept the relics of St. Caesarius of Terracina.

Seventh and eighth centuries
The existence of a monastic community here since the seventh century is proved by gravestones. In 794, even before the completion of the buildings, Fastrada, one of the wives of Charlemagne, was buried here. Charlemagne co-financed the construction. Later the Archbishops of Mainz had their last resting-place here, which was previously, until the time of Saint Boniface, at St. Hilarius's.

Archeological excavations during the years 1907 to 1911 indicated that as early as the Roman period and late antiquity a graveyard with a church existed here. It may be assumed that Saint Alban's grave was among the  discoveries. During an earthquake in 858 parts of the church were destroyed.

Fortification

The later Archbishop of Mainz (1328–1336) Baldwin of Luxembourg fortified the abbeys of St. Alban's, St. Jakob's and St. Victor's, which at that period were located outside the town walls.

Destruction
St. Alban's was sacked and burnt down on the evening of 28 August 1552 during the Second Margrave War by Albert Alcibiades, Margrave of Brandenburg-Kulmbach. It was not rebuilt. A chapel was constructed from the ruins of the church , which was in its turn severely damaged in the Thirty Years' War and completely destroyed during the siege of Mainz in 1793. In 1802 St. Alban's Abbey, which until then had retained a nominal existence, was formally dissolved under Napoleon.

Today
130 years after its termination the veneration of Saint Alban was revived by the construction of the new St. Alban's parish church, the first church to be built in the Diocese of Mainz after World War I. Nothing remains of the buildings on the original abbey site in the present Oberstadt of Mainz on the Albansberg, but the modern street Auf dem Albansberg approximately follows the foundations of the church.

The precious sacramentary from the abbey's scriptorium is preserved in the collection of valuables in the Martinus-Bibliothek, also in Mainz.

Burials
Fastrada (d. 794), fourth wife of Charlemagne.
Liutgard of Saxony (died 953), daughter of Emperor Otto I.
Charles of Aquitaine (d. 863), Archbishop of Mainz from 856 to 863.
William, Archbishop of Mainz (d. 968).
Liudolf (d. 957), Duke of Swabia and first son of Otto.

« Interview: Gerald Wilson | Main | Wanna Buy a Record? »
Alex Steinweiss (1917-2011)
For those who grew up in the LP era, the jazz album cover had special meaning. Back when record stores dotted the urban and suburban landscape, you could spend hours flipping through the cardboard squares admiring the cover artwork before flipping them over to read the liner notes. The cover was always the big thrill, the juicer that led to the purchase. One of the earliest pioneers of the art-marketing genre was Alex Steinweiss, who died on July 17 at age 94. I spoke with fabled producer George Avakian and legendary album-cover designer Paul Bacon yesterday about Steinweiss. More with them in a moment. [All album covers by Alex Steinweiss, who is pictured above]
Starting in the late 1930s and early '40s, multiple 78-rpms were slipped into volumes that looked like photo albums and sold as a single package. Originally, the album was a classical concept born out of necessity, since symphonies and operas could not be captured in full on one shellac 78-rpm disc. Before the 33 1/3-rpm LP was introduced by Columbia in 1948, which also was a classical invention, jazz was rarely given the album treatment. The pre-1948 market's consumers simply weren't wealthy enough to afford the cost. But Columbia's marketers eventually decided that jazz was special enough that "the story of jazz" volumes could be marketed to classical consumers.
From 1940 onward, the job of the jazz album was twofold: It had to graphically stimulate curiosity by the consumer. Then it had to cause the consumer to spend more than they had planned when they entered the store. If a cover was successful, consumers felt that what they were about to buy was an exciting find and that the purchase would make them hipper and more knowledgeable than their friends.
Steinweiss understood the delight factor and competitive nature of the jazz consumer early on. Though by today's standards his jazz covers may seem static or stiff, they were a major break in their day from the types of literal art used to sell records. In Steinweiss' hands, an album cover became propaganda, a call to arms that idolized the artist like a folk mural. He understood that jazz had a mystique, an aura that only jazz fans understood, and that to connect with the consumer's heart and wallet, the strings of that mystique had to be plucked just right.
Yesterday, I spoke briefly with George Avakian, 92, who produced his first jazz album for Decca in 1940 and joined Columbia in 1948 as director of the label's new pop LP division (go here to read my interview):
"I arrived at Columbia after Alex did, of course. I worked with him and remember Alex as a cheerful, happy guy—full of jokes and always pleasant to be around. Alex also was a highly innovative person. He was the first art director I ever worked with and still remains the very best.
"The power of Alex's work was in its simplicity. He was very direct. You didn't have to wonder what he was driving at in his covers. His graphics weren't complicated. Many of the covers he did were somewhat abstract, but they got the message across. [Columbia Records President] Ted Wallerstein understood what Alex was doing and encouraged him. Alex was a real pioneer of the album cover concept and what those covers had to do for the artists and the label. Many of his covers were for classical albums, but they always entertained you without compromising the music's elite status."
Graphic designer Paul Bacon, 87, was an album-cover pioneer in the LP age. His covers for Blue Note and Riverside modernized the feel, bringing them in step with the new school of jazz artists emerging in the late 1940s and '50s (go here to read my interview):
"Believe it or not, I never actually met Alex. I know it sounds like all of the album cover designers back then lived in the same apartment but we didn't [laughs]. Alex was one of my graphic heroes and inspirations. I first became aware of him when I was hanging around with my loose gang of jazz fans in Newark, N.J. When we pooled our coins, we could afford those 78-rpm albums that Columbia issued with Steinweiss covers. It was my first contact with superior graphic art.
"When I saw Alex's Louis Armstrong and Earl 'Fatha' Hines album, I wanted to do that, too. His covers weren't reverential, which was a big break from the style popular back then.
"Alex's covers were always terrifically well deisgned. They were organic. He used one image, one device that worked, and he integrated album titles beautifully. Each cover was like a poster. The concepts were well thought out, and they always had a clever gimmick. They appeared as though he had conceived of the device first and them made everything else fit into it.
"From the consumer's perspective, his covers were always very satisfying. You could spot one from 10 feet away. They had this feeling. I don't remember ever finding fault with a Steinweiss cover. What he did always struck me as being right on.
"The other guys designing covers at the time were good and, periodically, better than good. Part of Alex's grace was that his covers didn't say "Louis Armstrong" or Earl 'Fatha' Hines. It was 'Louis and Earl.' The covers accepted that the market was hip and would know who the musicians were. Most jazz fans I knew never called Armstrong 'Satchmo.' He was 'Louis,' and Alex got this.
"Ultimately, a jazz cover had to motivate the person with a wallet to want to hear what was on the inside of the cover. The goal was to say something pictorially about the musician in a way that was highly entertaining to the eye. You had to make a clever connection with the consumer and treat the consumer as a smart insider.
"I've always found that buyers respond to clever and enjoy being amused and in on the secret. With recognition comes gratification. Alex understood all of this. His covers were like a wink."

R.I.P. Mr. Steinweiss --
It's the very first time I bumped into your name. The very first time I see the face behind the art.
I have only one regular "album", meaning three shellacks in a hard cover folder. It's no jazz, it's Rafael Mendez, the great trumpeter from Mexico.
That's how I explain my students why even CD's are called "albums", though they're made of cheap plastic.
An album was something you could someone beat to death with. Try this with a CD ;)
Thanks for your art, thanks for making "real" covers. Or, as Boris Vian would have put it: "Every other album is ugly."
Posted by: Bruno Leicht | July 21, 2011 at 07:39 AM
A really great article, Marc. Album covers were a large part of the selection process back when, when trying to decide what to spend your coupla bucks on when confronted with dozens of desirable items.
Now, when I rarely listen to LPs, they serve another aesthetic purpose by hanging - framed - on my wall. And some of them could stand alone as artworks, which is no surprise considering that pioneers like Mr. Steinwess led to people like Andy Warhol and Reid Miles being cover designers. In fact, there is a high-end series of Japanese CD releases which are promoted as the Reid Miles Collection.
Another great angle on the music scene - thanks.

Good reading!
I have long appreciated the art of the album cover. As a former 78 rpm buyer, I would frequently toss out the worn records and simply keep the album. I have hundreds and I would love to be able to display them. Art like this belongs somewhere where people can see them.
I miss the album cover. :(

Tofino Capital, an early-stage investor in emerging market technology companies invested $150,000 in Lagos-based SeamlessHR, a human resource technology company with a commitment to help African businesses become more productive and successful. SeamlessHR said that the fund will be used to grow the team, double down on expansion into Anglophone Africa and to strengthen marketing efforts.
Seamless HR is committed to innovation and desire to help African enterprises solve the pressing problems associated with human capital development. Its mission is to transform businesses on the continent by using technology to question and understand problems in order to proffer sustainable solutions.
SeamlessHR perceives its recent investor to be a partner, "They have been very useful to us in terms of business growth with direct influence on furthering our efforts to become the biggest HR tech company out of Africa".
Tofino Capital was introduced to SeamlessHR by a startup it invested in. "We find referrals the most effective mechanism," says co-founder Eliott Pence. Tofino invests in Africa's B2B tech companies, proven entrepreneurs with operational backgrounds and businesses with repeatable business models and these startups can be relocated to the Philippines.
Tofino Capital, Washington DC-based firm, was set up in 2018 by Eliot Pence and Aubrey Hruby. It has made two investments in the last eight months, with hopes to back five more businesses before the end of the year. Tofino Capital earlier invested in Nigerian B2B e-procurement company, Gloopro. It focuses on providing operational alpha fund for 1% to 10% stake in the companies and looks to fully partake in growing the businesses after injecting capital.

President Buhari appreciates EU's support to Nigeria
Published by Osahome Olaniyan at May 11, 2021
The European Union (EU) has been of help to Nigeria in diverse ways, including humanitarian and trade relations, President Muhammadu Buhari has said.
The President spoke Tuesday at State House, Abuja, while receiving in a farewell audience, the Ambassador/ Head of the EU Delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS, His Excellency Ketil Karlsen.
He appreciated the fact that the EU remains the largest trading partner with Nigeria, while members of the Union equally remain the largest investors.
President Buhari thanked the outgoing Ambassador for facilitating the visits of French and German leaders during his tour of duty, noting that it was during Prime Minister Angela Merkel's visit that the door to a relationship with Siemens of Germany on power was opened.
Ambassador Karlsen, who spent four years here, said he enjoyed "excellent collaboration" with President Buhari, and with Nigeria, saying the cooperation included trade, military, humanitarian assistance, and many others.

A theme that pops up quite often in the old catalogues is the idea of an object gradually shrinking before vanishing entirely. Perhaps the most popular of these tricks, and one regularly performed today, is the diminishing cards.
In this effect a group of cards is removed from a deck and fanned. The fan of cards then decreases in size incrementally before disappearing.
The set on the left is by Davenports, I'm unsure where the set on the right comes from. In both cases the largest card is the standard poker size, which gives an idea of how small the cards end up. The Davenports set is threaded together, allowing for more natural fanning than the riveted set.
A variation on this theme is the diminishing billiard ball, popular when billiard ball manipulation was common on the stage.
These two sets are likely from Germany. The left set shows the different sizes and the one on the right shows how the balls nest.
Even less popular than billiard ball manipulation today is pocket watch manipulation. Here are two adverts for the diminishing pocket watch.
On the left is the Davenports advert for the effect, the right is a Janos Bartl advert. Bartl manufactured these watches in Hamburg.
This set is beautifully made. There are small brass nubs in the centre of each face to ensure the printed faces aren't rubbed off when the set is opened and closed.
Here's an effect I'm going to shoehorn into this post, it's not strictly a diminishing effect. The trick, know as Multum In Parvo (a great deal in a small space) allows a quantity of milk to increase and then diminish again.
The unusual thing about this example is that, unlike most sets, it is made entirely out of glass. The gimmicks being specially blown for each vessel. I'm not sure who produced it, but the quality is superb. This doesn't have the kicker ending where all glasses are filled from the jug at the end, the milk is simply poured back from the jug into the smaller glass giving the effect of a sudden decrease in milk.
This is by no means a complete list of diminishing tricks, match boxes, coins, cigarettes and many other items have been included in similar effects.
It's always fascinating when you open a magic book and find in it a book plate or signature of a previous owner. Sometimes there's a label or stamp showing which shop sold the book and in this post I'm going to look at some examples of these.
Working roughly chronologically here is an ink stamp from Blands.
This stamp shows Bland's address from approximately 1885.
Hamleys later bought out Bland's but here is a label from one of Hamley's other shops from before the takeover, 229 High Holborn.
In this 1893 edition, the label has been used to cover up the publisher's printed address. This common trick is used to try and ensure the customer returns to the magic shop for more books instead of buying direct from the publisher. The catalogue page has also been pasted in the book and wasn't part of the original binding.
This paper label is later and was found in a copy of Hoffmann's Latest Magic, so it's probably from 1918.
Later again is this purple ink stamp found in Percy Naldrett's 1925 book Volume Six.
Jumping far ahead in the chronology for a moment here's a much later Hamleys sticker. This is from a 1941 copy of Eric C. Lewis' Studies in Mystery. By this time Hamleys was predominantly a toy shop, as it is today.
This label appears to have been pasted on after a circular one had been removed, most likely one of the gold Davenports labels mentioned later.
Returning to the early twentieth century, another big dealer of this period was the department store A. W. Gamage. They often put small paper labels in the inside covers of books. The one below is from a 1904 edition of Hopkins' aptly named Twentieth Century Magic.
In 1905 Will Goldston began managing Gamages' conjuring department. Here's a label from around 1910, during Goldston's time there.
Goldston left Gamages in 1914 to establish his own magic shop. This 1917 edition of Supplementary Magic by Elbiquet contains one of Goldston's paper labels.
Looking at a smaller dealer now here's a stamp from a 1909 edition of Some Modern Conjuring by Donald Holmes.
I'm not familiar with Maddock, mentions of him are scarce. According to Genii's Magicpedia his real name was Jas. W. Bell and Fergus Roy mentions him as a relatively large dealer in The Davenport Story, Vol. 1.
Speaking of the Davenports, their labels crop up very often, particularly their seal-like paper labels. In this example a solid ink stamp has been used alongside the seal to discourage customers from buying direct from Burling Hull.
This seal is perhaps the most common and shows the 15 New Oxford Street address they held between 1915 and 1937 (for a list of Davenports' addresses and when they used them see the FAQ section on the Davenport Collection website).
Here is a clearer view of a similar seal.
There are also at least two gold versions of this seal. This one shows their address from 1938 to 1942.
This label wasn't from a book, but from the inside lid of a Sand and Sugar can.
They also produced a gold label with no address on, instead it simply had Made in England written around the edge.
This label was found pasted in a book from 1945. Often, and understandably, some magicians weren't best pleased with having labels pasted in their new books so it's not uncommon to see evidence of their removal.
Slightly later than the above, Willane's Wizardry was published in 1947. This copy has a label affixed from George McKenzie's Mac's Mysteries.
Many dealers sold second hand books and fixed their labels in many years after the book's publication. As such we can't be sure the labels are as early as the book they are in. Here's one such example form a 1930s book.
The famous escapologist Murray sold magic items and jokes after poor health prevented him from performing.
This list is updated from time to time as I stumble across other labels amongst my books.

is a Japanese manga by Osamu Tezuka that was published as a book in 1951.

Plot
At the mysterious Fossil Island, three visitors have come for a visit.  Newspaper Reporter Rock, Songwriter Kodama, and manga artist Osamu Tezuka.  On the island are many rocks shaped like human people.  When each one of them witness a different rock, each with their own name on them, the three enter into a dream like world. In Rock's dream world, he finds himself partnered with the great detective Sherlock Holmes.  Together, they race against the French master thief Arsene Lupin for a sculpture that has been hidden away. In Osamu Tezuka's dream world, the consumption of ancient foods take him to a world where humans and animals have switched brains.  Now the humans all act like animals, while the animals all act like humans.

For Kodama, she finds herself robbed of her own body by Eros, the God of Love, who is in the form of an old man.  Without her body, her spirit ascends to Heaven and to an amazing adventure. Two more stories follow after these, ending with the introduction of one of Tezuka's stars from his Star System: Pippy.

HOME FIGHTERS BOXING FOR FITNESS & AMATEUR INFO
STEVE'S CORNER BIOS PROFILES PICTURES VIDEOS LINKS EMAIL
STEVEN J. CANTON--Matchmaker, Manager, Trainer, Cutman. Steven J. Canton has been involved in every aspect of boxing for over 63 years. He started boxing in the Police Boy's Club at age 11 in New York City. He concluded his amateur career with a record of 122-3 including Air Force European Championships in 1965 and 1966. As a professional, Canton was 21-0 with 16 knockouts in his on and off career that spanned 21 years.
Steve is an ardent boxing enthusiast, as well as a professional. He has promoted and been a matchmaker of fights all over the world. He has worked as a ring announcer, television commentator, judge, referee, and timekeeper. He co-hosted a popular Las Vegas based boxing radio talk show with James "Smitty" Smith for seven years. He wrote a monthly Florida column for Flash/Update for many years. He has had numerous articles published in The International Boxing Digest, Boxing World, and many major web sites. He is a world-class cutman and trainer and has worked with some of the best fighters, trainers, managers, matchmakers and promoters in the world. He was inducted into the inaugural class of the Florida Boxing Hall of Fame as a Trainer/Manager, on June 27, 2009 and now serves as President.
Canton started the amateur SJC Boxing Club, Inc. in Fort Myers, Florida in 1992 and promoted shows every other month, featuring mostly out of state teams vs. Florida. Most of these shows were televised on local cable tv. During a two-year period of time his gym produced 28 Florida State Gold Medalists, 6 Regional and 1 National Champion.
In addition to working in professional and amateur boxing he has promoted Toughman Contests with Art Dore, and was a boxing consultant for the film "Tough Enough", starring Dennis Quaid. Canton is well respected in the boxing community as a historian, and is a voting member on the committee that elects new inductees for the International Boxing Hall of Fame, in both the modern and old-timer categories. He is also a proud member of the International Boxing Research Organiztion (IBRO), which consists of approximately 150 esteemed boxing historians world-wide. He is frequently called upon for developing fight plans and strategies by prominent fighters, managers and trainers.
Canton promoted the first casino boxing in the State of Florida. He promoted the first broadcast of live boxing on the Internet, which was transmitted throughout the world. It was watched by over 250,000 people in 15 different countries and received writeups in International Boxing Digest, and other publications. He also promoted the first pay-per-view telecast of boxing in the Bahamas.
Canton formed SJC Professional Boxing, Inc. in the spring of 1995 and is currently managing and training several excellent fighters, some of whom will be featured on these web pages.
CHRIS CANTON arrived in Fort Myers in December 2008 and wanted to help the young amateurs get a solid start in boxing by teaching the basic fundamentals. He was instrumental in providing encouragement and guidance to many beginners in achieving their goals, and he adjusted well to properly helping and instructing them. He especially enjoyed watching a beginner come into the gym and develop into a good fighter. Hard work, dedication, and the right attitude are the ingredients he looked for in a new fighter. He realized that if a fighter has those ingredients, plus a real desire to succeed, that all he has to learn is proper technique, and they will become good. His job was to teach that technique. Chris has those same characteristics himself, and was a welcome addition to the SJC Boxing family.
Charlie Pechette--Promoter, was behind the scenes of both the SJC amateur boxing club and SJC Professional Boxing, Inc., since the beginning. He was both an inspirational and monetary supporter. Without Charlie there would have been no SJC Boxing. We thank him wholeheartedly and miss him terribly. Rest in peace my friend.
Bob Alexander--ring announcer-- He may not be "ready to rumble," but Bob Alexander is always ready to ring announce. Bob has been announcing fights in Southwest Florida for many years and he has had the opportunity to introduce some of the biggest names in Boxing. The list includes: Joe Frazier, Michael Spinks, Larry Holmes, Hector Camacho, Pinklon Thomas, and Freddie Pendleton, as well as legends such as Carmen Basilio, Gene Fullmer, and Emanuel Steward, plus many more.
Bob's interest in boxing doesn't end with ring announcing. He has served as a blow-by-blow television announcer, and an assistant boxing coach and cornerman with the Blue Diamond Boxing Academy, in Charlotte County, Florida. He even climbed into the ring to spar with Hector "Macho" Camacho, to raise money for charity. Bob is also an avid boxing tape collector with more than 1500 fights in his collection. Bob served as the Master of Ceremonies during the inagural class of the Florida Boxing Hall of Fame, in 2009, and is a proud inductee himself, of their Class of 2010. He now serves as Vice President.
G. J. "Jerry" Brown used to provide our guest celebrity transportation for all of our boxing shows. He was the co-founder and director of the Brielle Learning and Diagnostic Center, before he retired to Florida from New Jersey. Jerry was an avid fight enthusiast, and enjoyed seeing that everyone was where they were supposed to be--when they were supposed to be there. He was always visible at ringside videotaping all the exciting action.
Jerry Brown died of cancer on November 7, 2000. He is sadly missed by all who knew him. His widow, Dr. Linda Levine-Brown, is still active in education and is an administrator in Lee County, Florida. Please read "The Jerry Brown Tribute." Thank you.

Therapeutic massage is one of the most beneficial therapies available, providing head-to-toe relief from pain, stress, and discomfort associated with pregnancy and breastfeeding. Massage therapy Newcastle offers a non-invasive and drug-free treatment that's appropriate for infants to seniors.
The benefits of massage therapy have been known for more than 5,000 years and it was a favorite of warriors and athletes. It was used to alleviate pain, improve range of movement, and activate the body's inherent ability to heal itself. Therapeutic massage is different from that offered at spas. It's administered by a medical professional that has in-depth knowledge of the body's musculoskeletal and neurological systems.
People are experiencing higher levels of stress than ever before. While most people know that stress is detrimental, they don't understand the way it can affect the body. Stress can result in migraines, digestive problems, poor posture, muscle pain, disruption of the neurological system, and increased risk of injury. Therapeutic massage can lower the levels of the stress hormone cortisol by as much as 50 percent.
Massage therapy Newcastle stimulates the body to release endorphins, the body's natural pain killing hormone. It's effective for any type of injury, neurological conditions such as sciatica, and joint disorders that includes arthritis. It's equally beneficial for scar tissue.
The neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine are released during therapeutic massage, thereby improving and stabilizing mood. Massage therapy Newcastle is beneficial for those with depression, people engaged in smoking cessation and anger management programs, and individuals that suffer with seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
It improving cognitive function, addresses brain conditions such as dementia, and aids those that have experienced a stroke. People that receive therapeutic massage on a regular basis sleep better and experience fewer instances of insomnia.
Therapeutic massage improves circulation, delivering oxygen rich blood throughout the body. It's especially advantageous for those with neurological disorders and chronic conditions that include diabetes that increases the risk of nerve damage.
The body has an amazing capacity to heal itself and fight off disease, viruses and bacteria when the immune system is working properly. Massage therapy Newcastle stimulates the immune system for overall health and well-being at every stage of life.

Today, there are a number of internet service provider. You can select from cable, fiber optics, satellite and broadband. Selecting a kind of internet service provider is an important decision that you need to make. As an internet user you want a reliable internet service provider. It is very frustrating if our internet connection is really slow.
First things first, you should know the types of internet services. There is the cable, DSL, satellite and the fiber optic internet service. All of these internet services offer high speed internet and they ensure that every internet user will always be connected in the internet.
The DSL also known as the digital subscriber line. This kind of internet service is connected to regular phone lines. They offer 100 Mbps and download speed about 25 megabits per second. There are actually two types of DSL and they are the SDSL and ADSL. Both of these types offer fast download and upload spped. The ADSL also known as the Asymmentric digital subscriber line is much cheaper than SDSL. The SDSL also called the Symmetric digital subscriber line are great for VPN users. This is much cheaper than other internet services, but the speed and quality of the internet actually depends on its distance from the central office of the provider.
The cable broadband is usually offered by cable television provider. There lowest is 3 Mbps and there highest is 100 Mbps. The quality and speed of internet that they provide does not depend on the distance of the provider. This is much faster than satellite and DSL.
You will need satellite dishes for this internet service. The internet speed is about 3 to 15 Mbps. This is great for those people that live in rural places. However this kind of connection is more expensive and a bit slower than other internet services.
This is the most latest and fastest kind of internet service. The lines are as thin as human hair. The internet speed of this internet service is 65 up to 300 Mbps. Today, this is the best option, however it is only available in certain areas.
Choose an internet service provider that offer the type of internet service that you want. You need to have a fast and reliable internet connection so you can get the best value of your money. Try to ask your neighbors if they are happy with their internet connection.

Indonesia has a high marine and freshwater biodiversity including freshwater fish biodiversity. One of freshwater fish which is commonly consumed by Indonesian people is dwarf snakehead (Channa gachua Hamilton, 1822). However, research on genetic characterization, especially the composition of mtDNA 16S nucleotide of dwarf snakehead has poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the composition of mtDNA 16S nucleotide of dwarf snakehead as a part of genetic characterization of the fish species taken from Keji River, Magelang, Central Java which has not been previously examined. This study analyzed 16S mt-DNA of two samples of dwarf snakehead from Keji River (KTS-01 and KTS-02). In addition, two sequences of Channa gachua with accession number KU986900, KU238074, and HM117234-HM117238 taken from GenBank were used as a comparison. A method used in this research was a PCR method and primers used in this research were 16Sar and 16Sbr. The results revealed that the average of nucleotide composition T, C, A and G of the fish species was 23.04%, 25.13%, 29.06% and 22.77% respectively whereas the average rate of nucleotide composition A+ T and G+ C was 52.10% and 47.90% respectively. The two dwarf snakehead had similar T and C composition but different in A and G composition. In addition, the G+C content in KTS-01 and KTS-02 had the highest frequency compared to other dwarf snakehead taken from GenBank. From this finding it could be assumed that there is genetic variation between the two dwarf snakehead from Keji River which is important genetic data for breeding program of the fish species in the future.

By HHCU in Blog, Donkey clinics, Inspections, News on May 22, 2012 .
Bobbie went down to Kimberley to have a meeting with the Public Prosecutor to ensure that our court case against the Hackney Stud breeder and his assistant is on track – apparently the PP is knowledgeable and experienced – good news!
She also rechecked the stud, and was happy to report a huge improvement. No horses tied down, clean stables, and some repairs carried out. The pregnant mare in the yard behind the house on the property is looking good, and the whole area has been cleared up. The horses and ponies are – and always have been – in a good condition physically. We are still awaiting the outcome of the inquiry through the Hackney Society, and will continue with our court case for cruelty – no matter how things have improved, there must be an outcome for causing an animal so much pain, fear and distress. We are pleased however that our intervention has improved life for the horses.
We are also continuing to investigate a case of alleged illegal horse slaughter in Kimberley – despite certain people in positions of authority in the area trying to make things difficult for us……. guys, if you are reading this, you are wasting your time – we don't give up!
Solly and Samson are in Lesotho – some good news, some bad news, but I will give a full update when they return in the middle of this week.
Last week Trevor Mosia one of our Inspectors spent 5 days in Smasha Block. In general, things have improved in many ways – the harnessing is much better, albeit repaired with odds and ends of unwanted tack from our supporters, and the donkeys health has improved as a result of our de-worming programme. However, I am still saddened that after three years of working in this community, there are things happening that shouldn't happen…. harness sores… whips (always confiscated by HHCU) and something in the donkeys' demeanour that absolutely breaks me – drooping ears, legs braced to cope with the weight, and a 'dead' eye. Do you know what I mean? It's just a look that tells me that they are suffering, and that they have given up trying to fight it.
On a positive note, I had a meeting with a gentleman who not only loves donkeys, and is a horseman himself, but also works for a large international company that MAY be able to help us with funding for our donkey clinics. We should hear shortly if we are successful – please keep fingers crossed. If we could just make our presence felt there more often, we would make such a difference. Quarterly clinics are the best that we can manage, and it's just not enough. In the meantime, Trevor is trying to arrange an alliance with some young men in Smasha Block who are trying to organise the squatter camp, which has grown in leaps and bounds since we started working there. If we can obtain their co operation, we will be able to organise educational sessions, driver training, cart construction, basic medical aid for the donkeys etc. It will be a good move forward, and that is what we must keep our eye and focus on.
That's all for now – will have lots to tell you about next week! In the meantime, thank you for supporting us, thank you for caring, and thank you for loving our equines!
Breaks my heart to see these horses and donkeys in such an appauling condition, but your wonderful work makes it a little easier knowing that something is being done and very very well I may add. Thanks HHC.
That, s very good going and we know you NEVER GIVE UP HHCU!
Good work HHCU, proud to know you!
Where can we buy donkey harnesses to donate to these people?
Clare, we are in the process of getting quotes, and also weighing up the possibility of making them ourselves – as I write we are getting in quotes for an industrial sewing machine, car seatbelting, which is perfect, and buckles etc. Trevor, one of our inspectors, has qualified as a harnessmaker, so he is able to do the pattern, and teach someone how to do it – just weighing up the costs!
guys, I tried to get hold of you a few weeks ago. I was at suncity, and the spar there is selling very suspect meat. labelled "game", R20 a kg, much darker than cow meat. Maybe go check it out?
Never ever give up-you are angels!

25 Jaw-Dropping Photos from the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series
© Ray Demski / Red Bull Cliff Diving
Cliff diving is the purest extreme sport on earth. Take a high cliff, deep water and courage. What you get is all you need. No additional machinery, no protection whatsoever, just absolute concentration and complete body control. The equipment – a swimsuit – fits into your trouser pocket. The principle is simple; the complication is your own experience. Diving from heights of around 27m, the equivalent of an eightstorey building, has a long tradition but remained largely in the shadows until the start of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series in May 2009, featuring the world's best high divers.
At the moment, the official list of dives includes 149 different ways of combining somersaults and twists. Each diver has to choose his four competition dives from this list – with two required dives and two optional dives. The required dives have a set degree of difficulty (3.6) and must be performed from different take-off positions. The two optional dives must be from different dive groups and must be performed in alternating order for every competition throughout the whole season.
As the qualifiers wrap up for the start of the 2012 season, we look back at 25 jaw-dropping photos from the 2011 season that saw Gary Hunt (GBR) take home the crown for the second year in a row. Best of luck to all of the divers in 2012!

Headache is an extremely common problem that is seen in both children and adults. There are numerous reasons for having a headache. Eyestrain can cause headaches, but this type of headache only occurs after using the eyes for a long period of time. Most of the time, headaches are not due to the eyes. However, a thorough eye exam should be able to determine whether the eyes are contributing to headaches.
