Inflated Numbers: The 400,000 Terrorists
By Ivan Eland – Washington
After having begun a series of investigative stories criticizing the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in May 2008, CNN reporter Drew Griffin reports being placed with more than a million other names on TSA's swollen terrorism watch list. Although TSA insists Griffin's name is not on the list and pooh-poohs any possibility of retaliation for Griffin's negative reporting, the reporter has been hassled by various airlines on 11 flights since May. The airlines insist that Griffin's name is on the list. Congress has asked TSA to look into the tribulations of this prominent passenger.
In a recent op-ed in the Washington Post, probably responding to the controversy over Griffin, Leonard Boyle, the director of the Terrorist Screening Center, defended the watch list, claiming that because terrorists have multiple aliases, the names on the list boiled down to only about 400,000 actual people. If there are 400,000 terrorists lying in wait to attack the United States, we are all in trouble.
But wait a minute. There has been no major terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11—almost seven years ago. Where are all these nefarious evildoers?
Boyle says 95 percent of these people are not American citizens or legal residents and the vast majority aren't even in the United States. He rather sheepishly defends the size of the list by writing, "Its size corresponds to the threat. It's a big world."
That brings up a very important issue. The U.S. government regularly tries to police the world and combat threats to other nations—in the process, usually generating more enemies. Examining the forty-four organizations on the State Department's highly politicized list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO), one finds that only a very few currently focus their efforts on U.S. targets. And the U.S. government has even flirted with one anti-Iranian group, the Mujahedin-e Khalq, which was put on the FTO list long ago.
Similarly, the State Department's list of five state sponsors of terrorism has included Cuba and North Korea—neither of which has actively participated in terrorist attacks in decades. These two countries continued to be on the list for other reasons—namely U.S. government aversion to them. On its website, the State Department even admits that, "The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) was not known to have sponsored any terrorist acts since the bombing of a Korean Airlines flight in 1987." The website also contains an implicit admission that keeping selected countries on the state sponsors list can reap ulterior political benefits for the United States. The website notes that under the umbrella of the Six-Party Talks, the United States intends to remove North Korea from the list as that nation takes actions toward getting rid of its nuclear weapons program. Even the remaining three nations on the list that do sponsor terrorism—Syria, Iran, and Sudan—don't support groups that focus their attacks on the U.S.
Thus, the humongous terrorist watch list for airline travel and the excessively large FTO and state sponsors lists are a few more examples of the United States taking on other nations' security burdens. Trying to be the "big man on (the world) campus," however, comes at a horrendous cost to American freedom at home.
The terrorist watch list is downright unconstitutional. Under the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, no warrants shall be issued unless there is probable cause that a crime has been committed. If the government has such probable cause that a passenger is conspiring to commit a terrorist act on an airplane, it should not hassle that person at the airport when trying to fly or ban him or her from flying; it should arrest them. But of course the government does not have the evidence to do that for the vast majority of the 400,000 people on the watch list.
And it's apparently not easy to get yourself off the list once you are on it. Although Boyle claims that the TSA constantly scrubs the list for possible mistaken identities of people who have frequent "encounters" with the list, even if they don't file a complaint, Griffin uncovered an innocent passenger with a common name—James Robinson—who has complained endlessly and has received no resolution of his case. Senator Edward Kennedy—also with a common name—experienced endless hassles and red tape trying to get his name off the list. If such a well-known figure has such problems, the average misidentified traveler is in big trouble.
And as the economists would say, what about opportunity cost to real security? The U.S. government should spend the time it devotes to scrutinizing 400,000 people on the watch list, and the vast majority of the 44 FTOs and all of the 5 countries who don't sponsor anti-U.S. terrorism, on the again rising principal threat from Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and their tens of hard core al Qaeda followers operating out of Pakistan. The American public would be much safer. As the famous Prussian military ruler Fredrick the Great (and closet economist) said, "To defend everything is to defend nothing." Moreover, under current government policy, we have neither liberty nor security.

I stole it but somebody helped me, in the props department so I feel like that was okay. I stole a piece of Tardis. A proper gallifreyan full on piece under my jumper but it was in conjunction with the props team, they gave me the wink.

Breaking News: Taraba Assembly Speaker resigns
in Cover, Politics
Sylvanus Viashima, Jalingo
The Speaker, Taraba State House of Assembly, Mr Abel Peter Diah, on Sunday evening resigned amidst alleged plots by the state governor, Darius Ishaku to impeach him and other principal officers of the House.
In a phone call on Sunday evening, Diah said that he had decided to "resign as the speaker of the Taraba State House of Assembly for personal reasons."
Diah appreciated the members for giving him the chance to serve them in the capacity and urged to continue to work for the interest of Taraba State rather than personal reasons.
Tension had continued to mount over the weekend with alleged plans by Governor Darius Ishaku to mobilise and impeach the speaker following alleged moves by the House to impeach the governor a few weeks ago.
However, in a statement issued in Jalingo on Saturday morning and signed by Mr Bala Dan Abu, the SSA Media to the governor, Ishaku said that the alleged plot was fake and a ploy by detractors to soil the cordial relationship between the executive and legislative arms of government in the state.
"The social media was on Friday November 29, 2019, inundated with reactions to a certain unsigned fake news story containing essentially rumours of a purported impeachment plot against principal officers of the Taraba State House of Assembly including the Speaker, Abel Peter Diah.
"The article made spurious claims to the effect that Governor Darius Dickson Ishaku was the sponsor of that so-called impeachment plot and that he had committed N200 million public funds to it.
"Nothing can be more untrue. It is yet another wicked and malicious attempt to cause confusion and conflict in the relationship between the executive and legislative arms of government in Taraba State on the one hand and Governor Ishaku and Peter Diah.
"Gov Ishaku will never sponsor and did not sponsor the so-called impeachment move, if indeed there was any such move by the honourable members, let alone fund it with such a staggering amount of money from the public purse.
"The allegations are ridiculous, absolutely false and malicious. It is certainly for these reasons that the author of the article failed to sign it. Governor Ishaku wants the public to ignore this article and the lies contained in it. Governor Ishaku is an apostle of peace and will not do anything that will rock the existing level of trust and understanding between him and members of the state House of Assembly," the statement read.
Investigation by our correspondent revealed that the Speaker had decided to throw in the towel after the camp loyal to the state governor finally got a commanding majority of the members on Sunday evening, preparatory for Monday's impeachment.

The Pickpockets to release new EP
By Max Sullivan, Contributing Writer
The band will makes its debut at 1130 Ft Creative Media Studio.
Hints of a new release by Gretchen and the Pickpockets have surfaced this fall. Lead singer Gretchen Klempa said last month that the group had been writing a few songs a week since it finished up its hectic touring schedule this summer.
But now there's a date. Dec. 20, the Durham-based foursome is heading to 1130Ft Creative Media in Rollinsford, New Hampshire, to record their third release, Klempa said.
The plan is to record four to five songs for an EP, still without a name; and if Klempa has her way, it will be the band's most hands-on experience in the studio so far.
The previous two records, Stop (2013) and Gretchen and the Pickpockets (2014), were mostly mixed by their respective producers. That, Klempa said, will be different this time around.
"This time around, personally, I would be there saying, 'This needs to be there, this needs to change,'" Klempa said. "I want to be there when it's mixed. I don't want to be there listening to a song after it's mixed. I want to be there."
Klempa said she particularly wished she could go back and be more involved in the mixing and mastering of Stop. After its release, Klempa was dissatisfied, and she and Smith realized the band's hands-off approach for her first time in the recording studio was the reason.
"When we recorded it, we liked the songs, and I'm not saying that [Stop producer] Tyler Guise does a bad job," Smith said. "We kind of didn't communicate the vision that we wanted."
That understanding led to a more involved project earlier this year with the band's self-titled LP. Smith and Klempa said they still could have done more personally with the mixing, but they took what they learned from their first recording experience and brought it to the studio to make a more satisfying release.
In particular, a difficult production situation became a moment Smith could be proud of with the track "Down Down Down." At one point in the song, every track cuts out but Klempa's vocals, making that lone track open to a wide spectrum of sonic options. By personally contributing to of the board, Smith said he and the band came up with a nice sound for Klempa's voice that brought out the "sheen."
"When you add a compressor or you take a little bit of the lows and the mids from her voice away and add a little bit of that [brightness]," Smith said, "That is something that we just never did before, and so that's I think as a band we were happy with [Gretchen and the Pickpockets]."
Having had that growth in the studio earlier this year, the band is eager to see what will come from the recording session this winter. Smith said he hopes to do more overdubs, including the use of loop pedals.
"Every time, it gets better," Klempa said. "Every time, it's really different. I think this time will be really different, too."
Part of the future recording plan is to pay a debt—a cover for each Kickstarter donor who gave either $500 or $1000. They've recorded one donor's choice cover – Eli Young Band's "Crazy Girl" – and now they're going to finish three more. Smith admitted that it's taken a while to get the awarded covers finished in a timely fashion, as mixing the LP this year took up a lot of time itself. However, they plan to release songs by Smith and Earth, Wind and Fire.
Smith and Klempa are particularly excited about the Earth, Wind and Fire song. "Shining Star" and "September" are in consideration, but Klempa said it will probably be "Let's Groove Tonight."
"Earth, Wind and Fire, man. That's going to be a jam," Smith said.

Brown, Van Der Wal, Griffiths, and Benischek Sweep the "4th Annual Fall Extravaganza" at the Lee County Speedway
Posted on October 11, 2015 by LCS
Donnellson, IA (Saturday, October 10, 2015) – Saturday night was the second and final night of the "4th Annual Fall Extravaganza" presented by Armstrong Tractors, Budweiser, Donnellson Tire and Service, and Midwest Performance and Power at the Lee County Speedway in Donnellson, IA. After the final checkered flag was waved Kyle Brown (Budweiser Modifieds), Curtis Van Der Wal (Shottenkirk of Ft. Madison SportMods), Dustin Griffiths (Coors Light Hobby Stocks), and Jake Benischek (Armstrong Tractors Sport Compacts) repeated their wins from Friday night, while Cayden Carter topped the Donnellson Tire and Service Stock Car feature.
The first feature to take to the track on the night was the 16 lap Coors Light Hobby Stocks, with Dustin Griffiths and Justin Lichty drawing the front row. Griffiths would take advantage of his front row starting spot to grab the lead on lap 1 over Justin Wacha and Brandon Symmonds. Just after the completion of lap 1 the first of four cautions appeared, as debris down the front stretch slowed the action. On the restart Griffiths jumped back out front, with Symmonds over taking Wacha for second. Debris down the backstretch on lap 5 brought the action to a halt for the second time of the race. Griffiths once again grabbed the lead on the restart, with Wacha and Nick Ulin, who started 7th, both over taking Symmonds for the second and third spots. Cautions on lap 8 and 11, brought the field back to Griffiths' back bumper. But Griffiths grabbed the lead on the final restart and then held off Ulin to pick up his second win of the weekend and another $500 to go with it. Ulin settled for 2nd, Wacha was 3rd, Dale Porter started 9th and finished 4th, with Lichty holding on for a 5th place finish.
Up next was the 20 lap Shottenkirk of Ft. Madison SportMod feature, with Austen Becerra and Erick Knutsen leading the field to the drop of the green flag. But just as the green flag waved the caution light would come on, as debris in turn 1 brought out the yellow. On the restart third place starter Sam Wieben jumped out into the lead on lap 1 over Becerra and Brayton Carter, who started 5th. After lap 1 was scored complete the yellow light would come on, as Matt Richards spun in turn 4 and collected Brandon Dale to bring out the yellow. Wieben moved back out front on the restart, with Carter over taking Becerra for the runner up spot. The third caution of the race appeared on lap 4, when Tony Olson, who started 22nd and had charged up to 7th, got into the guardrail in turn 1 to bring out the yellow. Once again Wieben jumped out front on the restart, with Carter and Curtis Van Der Wal, who started 6th, battling for the runner up spot. One lap later, lap 5, Jake McBirnie, who was running 6th, spun in turn 2 to bring out the caution. On the restart Wieben moved back out front, with Carter and Van Der Wal close behind. Van Der Wal would clear Carter for the runner up spot on lap 7 and then went to work on Wieben for the top spot. Just as Van Der Wal got up beside Wieben for the lead, John Oliver Jr. would spin in turn 4 to slow the action down. Wieben grabbed the lead on the restart, with Van Der Wal trying to get under him. On lap 12 Van Der Wal was able to slip under Wieben coming off turn 2 to grab the top spot away on lap 13. Van Der Wal then started to pull away, when the final caution of the race appeared on lap 17. This time Michael Joe Bliven spun in turn 4 to bring out the yellow. On the restart Van Der Wal moved back out front and then held off Carter to claim his second win of the weekend at the track and another $1,000 to go with it. Carter was 2nd, Wieben was 3rd, Tony Dunker, who started 16th and crossed the line in 4th, was docked 4 spots after the checkers for jumping the final restart, which moved Jim Gillenwater, who started 10th, up to 4th, and Jeremiah Hurst up to complete the top 5.
Jeremy Pundt and Todd Reitzler made up the front row for the 22 lap Donnellson Tire and Service Stock Car feature, with Pundt taking advantage of his front row start to grab the lead on lap 1 over Kirk Kinsley and Reitzler. The action up front was slowed for the first time on lap 2, when a tire was clipped in turn 4 and pushed onto the track to bring out the yellow. On the restart Pundt moved back out front, with Kinsley and Cayden Carter close behind. While Pundt worked the bottom of the track, Carter went to the top of the track to edge Pundt at the line by half a car length on lap 6 to grab the lead. At the same time Mike Hughes, who started 10th, had worked his way up to 3rd. Disaster would strike Pundt on lap 9, as he spun in turn 2 while running 4th. But he would do a 360 and kept going to prevent a caution from coming out. Carter would start to enter lapped traffic by lap 15, which allowed Hughes to close in on his back bumper. Hughes was able to get up beside Carter on lap 19, only to have the final caution appear to slow the battle down. Another tire was clipped and pushed onto the track in turn 4 to bring out the yellow. On the restart Carter moved back out front, with Hughes, David Brandies, who started 6th, and Zach VanderBeek, who started 9th, racing three wide off turn 2 for the runner up spot. Carter held on over the final 3 laps to pick up the win and the $1,000 top prize to go with it. Brandies won the battle for 2nd, Hughes was 3rd, VanderBeek was 4th, with Jeff Mueller coming from 12th to round out the top 5.
Up next was the 15 lap Armstrong Tractors Sport Compact feature, with Jake Benischek and Shaun Slaughter drawing the front row. Just as the green flag was waved the caution light would come on, as Jacob Reiter and Renny McCarty spun in turn 2 to bring out the yellow. On the restart Benischek jumped out front to lead lap 1 over Slaughter and Chuck Fullenkamp. After the completion of lap 1 the red would wave, as Daniel Campbell clipped a tire in turn 4 and rolled to bring out the red. He would climb from the car okay. Benischek moved back out front on the restart, with Slaughter and Fullenkamp close behind. The action up front was slowed for the third time on lap 3, when Adam Gates came to a stop in turn 2 to bring out the caution. Once again Benischek grabbed the lead on the restart, with Slaughter trying to get under him for the lead. But three laps later, lap 6, another red would slow the battle up front. This time Jerrod Nichols got up on his side in turn 4 to bring out the red. On the final restart Benischek moved back out front and then held off Slaughter to pick up his second win of the weekend and another $300 to go with it. Slaughter settled for 2nd, Kimberly Abbott charged from 11th to finish in 3rd, Fullenkamp was 4th, with Luke Benischek coming home in 5th.
The final feature to take to the track was the 25 lap Budweiser Modifieds, with Rich Smith and Matt Werner leading the field to the green flag. Smith would take advantage of his front row starting spot to grab the lead on lap 1 over Kyle Brown, who started 5th, and Werner. The action was slowed for the first time on lap 2, as Kevin Smith spun in turn 3 and collected Jeff Waterman to bring out the yellow. Bad thing for Waterman, who was suppose to start in 3rd, but pulled in on the parade lap and rejoined the back of the field just before the green flag was waved. On the restart Rich Smith moved back out front, with Brown and Andrew Schroeder close behind. While Smith worked the bottom of the track, Brown worked the top of the track to grab the lead away on lap 5. Brown then started to pull away from the battle behind him, even entering lapped traffic by lap 13. But a final caution on lap 15 would bring the field back to his back bumper. This time Mike Joski spun in turn 2 to bring out the yellow. On the restart Brown jumped back out front, with Schroeder working to hold back Bruce Hanford, who started 11th, for the runner up spot. Hanford would slip past Schroeder on lap 17 for the second spot. But didn't have time to chase down Brown for the lead, as he went on to claim his second win on the weekend and another $1,000 to go with it. Hanford settled for 2nd, Tyler Groenendyk started 7th and finished 3rd, Schroeder was 4th, with David Brown charging from 17th to round out the top 5.

("Archie" is also a: user.)
(thing) by alex.tan Fri Apr 07 2000 at 19:14:34
Also the title of ongoing humourous comic book that is readily recognized by a significant percentage of the world's English speaking population.
Involves the stories and fumbles of a bunch of teenagers studying in Riverdale high school. Unsurprisingly, the main character is Archie Andrews. Other main characters include Jughead Jones, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Reggie Mantle and, Cheryl Blossom (since 1994).

Perhaps the most famous recent Archie artist is Dan DeCarlo.
Don't forget classic Archie characters like Moose Mason (the jock), Dilton Doiley (the brain), and Big Ethel.
Occasionally DeCarlo would write really weird stories in which the Archie gang were all superheroes, starring Archie as "Captain Goodheart". These stories were almost universally awful.

Wow all these writeups and not one mention of the actual storyline of the comic books.
The story of Archie is a love triangle between Archie, (the red haired lovable average guy), Veronica, (The dark haired, stuck up, rich girl), and Betty, (the nice blond girl next door type of girl).
Archie dates both of these girls, (usually Veronica), but Betty is the girl who truly loves him. He often inadvertantly hurts Betty, but she never gives up.
Betty and Veronica are best friends but they are also great rivals. Often fighting over Archie, (and sometimes other boys as well), Veronica usually comes out on top because of her willingness to fight dirty.
Archie's best friend is Jughead Jones, (a classic overeater and self confessed woman hater). Jughead's main love in life is food, all kinds of food, (but he is thin as a rail). Jughead often battles self doubt and depression, but Archie can usually cheer him up.
Archie's biggest rival, (and second best friend), is Reggie. Reggie also dates Veronica, (and sometimes Betty). Reggie is in many ways a male version of Veronica, (wealthy, attractive, and willing to fight dirty). Reggie is often quite mean to Jughead and other minor characters, (until he realizes how much he has hurt them).
Dilton Doiley is the super nerd of the bunch, but in true Revenge of the Nerds style he will often end up with very pretty girls, (these girls are usually incidental characters, that are never carry over into other stories).
Several other well known groups of people occupy the same world as the Archie gang. Including Sabrina The Teenage Witch, and the whole Josie and the Pussycats group. Sometimes these groups will encounter each other, (but usually their stories are separate).

Thriller, Crime, Drama
Director: Jonathan Demme Cast: Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Anthony Heald, Ted Levine, Scott Glenn, Kasi Lemmons, Frankie Faison, Brooke Smith, Diane Baker, Maria Skorobogatov, Jeffrie Lane, Stuard Rudin, Lawrence T. Wrentz, Charles Napier, Cynthia Ettinger, Harry Northup
Academy Awards: Best Picture; Best Actor in a Leading Role (Anthony Hopkins); Best Actress in a Leading Role (Jodie Foster); Best Director (Jonathan Demme); Best Adapted Screenplay (Ted Tally)
Also Nominated For: Best Sound; Best Film Editing
I First Saw In: c. 2002
Synopsis: A young F.B.I. cadet must confide in an incarcerated and manipulative killer to receive his help on catching another serial killer who skins his victims.
Did You Know? Anthony Hopkins's performance is one of the shortest to win the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role. He is second only to David Niven in Separate Tables, who beat Hopkins by only one minute.
Quotables: HANNIBAL LECTER: A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti. You fly black to school, now, little Starling. Fly, fly, fly…
The Silence of the Lambs is one of the best movies ever made. Even though they barely have any screen time together, Jodie Foster and Sir Anthony Hopkins have incredible chemistry. But they aren't the only ones who give incredible performances. While he's well-remembered and often-quoted, Ted Levine's performance as Buffalo Bill is often overlooked for how tremendously horrifying it is. Together, the three of them are unrivaled.


By spending and investing locally we protect our local economy.
The Regional District of Mount Waddington was pleased last week to award the contract for management of Seven Mile Landfill to Steelhead Enterprises of Port McNeill.
The tender was particularly noteworthy as the bid process was open to contractors across the province and even to those in Alberta.
It is also worth noting the trucks that haul material to the landfill are also local. In an industry that is becoming ever more consolidated, Fox's Disposal provides a local touch and local faces to garbage collection and, starting next year, curbside recycling on the North Island.
Tying the theme together, the board of directors was updated on the progress of the RD's Project Comeback, which seeks to determine why young people leave the region and what it takes to get them to return to live and work here.
We are often reminded and urged — particularly at this time of year — to shop locally. Spending our dollars with local merchants provides a "multiplier" effect on the local economy and help ensure those merchants remain in business.
But the same holds true for contractors providing a range of services that we may not notice or call upon regularly.
Storefront retailers or service providers, we all have a role in ensuring there is something for those youngsters to come back to.

Q: How to make , , or list display tabular data as a table? First, let me say that I have read other responses on this, and I realize that for tabular data, using tables is the best way to go.  The reason I am needed to use something other than a table is because I am using a jquery plugin (Jquery UI sortable to be exact) that requires certain rows of data to be nested inside of others.  I know of no way to do this with tables, and thus I need to use another element (I am currently using divs).
My data is standard tabular data that is 1 cell per piece of data.
Name  Address
Bob   123 Main    edit_button  drag&drop_button
Joe   123 Fake    edit_button  drag&drop_button
Sue   456 Road    edit_button  drag&drop_button
Ann   123 Street  edit_button  drag&drop_button

In this example, dragging Bob will also drag Joe and Sue, Bob's team, with him.  Ann can only be moved on top of the three or below the three, while Joe and Sue can only switch places with each other.
In html, it appears like this.

Header information

Bob's information

Joe's information

Sue's information

Ann's information

To my knowledge, this nesting cannot be done with tables.
I do not need to use divs, if something else would work better.
My question is basically how would I get this information to show up in a tabular format?
Currently, my best guess is to put each element of data, including the headers, in a div with fixed width (and apply borders as needed for appearance), but this means that the 'table' may not resize to best fit the information given.
Another attempt I have made, which is arguably much messier, is to, in each 'row', have a new table with the same setup, which includes a header that is not displayed.  This gives almost the look I want, but some of the spacing is noticeably off if the names are not the exact length.
P.S.
I hope the actual question is not too specific even though I think my justification for why a table will not work seems a bit too specific.
Edit:
Would there be some way to get the following to work so that a table could still be used?

table header stuff

        <mtne*>

Bob's information

            <mtne>

Joe's information

            </mtne>
            <mtne>

Sue's information

            </mtne>
        </mtne>
        <mtne>

Ann's information

        </mtne>

*mtne = mythical table nesting element.
Edit 2:
Upon further testing, I've found that the css styling to make divs behave like tables has the same issue. where if the rows are not placed next to each other, and some are instead nested, they do not share width data.  Due to time constraints, I'm having to just switch to using divs with preset widths.
To anyone else who may come along, there might be some possibility when using treeTables, but I have not yet tested it out and am needing to move on.

A: You can use CSS and divs to emulate tables, with display:table;, display:table-row;, display:table-cell; etc.

March 20 (Reuters) - Berlin-based digital bank N26 said on Tuesday it raised $160 million in a funding round co-led by China's Tencent Holdings Ltd and Allianz Group's digital investment unit.
This brings the total funds raised by the company to $215 million and represents the largest equity financing round in Germany's fintech sector, N26 said.
The company, which counts Chinese billionaire Li Ka-shing and Silicon Valley investor Peter Thiel among its backers, is competing with traditional branch-based retail banks by offering a suite of mobile banking services that customers can use entirely from their smartphones.
Since its launch in Germany in 2015, the company has expanded rapidly into 17 European countries including Austria, France, Spain and Italy.
N26 will use the funds for its international expansion, particularly into the United States and UK later this year, and to support product development in its existing markets, the company said.


News flash on Dr. Kruse!
We have just this minute received a note from the Captain of the ship explaining the circumstances surrounding the removal of Dr. Kruse from the ship.
According to the Captain, not long before sailing, a Twitter message was posted under the name "Doctor Kruse" that could easily be construed as threatening. This message was brought to the attention of several law enforcement authorities, who then boarded the ship and questioned Dr. Kruse.
I am not privy to the conversation that ensued, but the Captain made the decision to proceed in caution, and had Dr. Kruse removed from the ship.
Subsequently it has been determined that Dr. Kruse was not responsible for the threatening message. The Captain apologized for the problems that ensued both for us and for Dr. Kruse.

Sailing – Great Britain's first competitor in the 37th American Cup – a sport

Directly from the dpa news channel
Cowes / Isle of Wight (dpa) – UK's Ineos team around British Olympic champion Sir Ben Ainsley is the "standard challenge" for the 37th America's Cup.
A few days after completing the 36th edition of the Classic Sailing, British racing team Sir Jim Ratcliffe was the first team to challenge New Zealand to defend the Cup. According to the America's Cup Act of 1857, the British took the lead among the contenders in negotiations with the New Zealanders. About four-time Olympic champion Ainsley, the British want to bring the oldest international sports trophy back to their home country for the first time since the trophy premiere that they lost in 1851.
While the Host District and Host Year remain open for the time being, some requirements have been made public. A stricter nationality rule and one boat rule will be introduced: In the future, each team will only be allowed to build one new boat in the future AC75 class, which premiered at the 36th America's Cup. This would reduce costs and enable multiple countries to participate. For the 36th edition, the teams worked with budgets in excess of 100 million euros.
The new protocol, which sets the key dates for the 37th Copa America, will be published by November 2021. The venue should be decided by September. In order to keep the successful New Zealand sailors in the country, the government surrounding Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced a € 3 million startup aid for their America's Cup-winning team. Behind the British team is Ineos founder Jim Ratcliffe, one of Britain's wealthiest.

Is Tivo worth it anymore?
Over the years, the way many people watch television has changed. A few years back, viewers were always keen on television schedules. Things changed with the introduction of Tivo.
The company that came up with Tivo was among the first to offer digital video recorders. Though other television options have come up, viewers still find Tivo to be worth it. This is because it gives one the chance to record video content in HD quality. Customers also appreciate its user-friendly interface and ability to pause live TV.
Introduction to Tivo
What you should expect from Tivo
The merits and demerits of Tivo
Does Tivo come with monthly fees?
Do I need an internet connection to use Tivo?
This is a digital video recorder that is both a service and a set-top box. The company behind Tivo has been in existence for more than a decade, and it has managed to sell more than a million service subscriptions and DVRs. Most Tivo customers like it since it not only enhances convenience but also puts you in control.
Though the market offers so many television options, Tivo has managed to remain competitive due to its affordable pricing and useful features. The set utilizes an operating system known as Linux, which manages its application and resources. For you to start using the Tivo set, you have to subscribe to the Tivo service.

It allows you to record shows on the hard disk available in the set-top box for later viewing. The hard disk storage is enough for you to store all your favorite shows. Apart from using DVR technology, Tivo keeps on adding more options to its boxes, such as integrating it with most of the major apps. You can, therefore, use Tivo to stream content from popular services such as Netflix.
Tivo gives you the freedom to choose from different set-top boxes. The most popular option is known as Bolt Vox, which comes in two models. These models have varying storage capacities and a number of tuners. For instance, the 3TB Bolt Vox features six tuners. If you choose this option, you can record a maximum of 6 shows simultaneously.
The second Bolt Vox version comes with tuners and allows one to record at least four shows at a go. If you wish to record over the air broadcast, you should consider the Romaio OTA. This is a great option for people who utilize the HD antenna when viewing local channels. The Romaio Ota has storage of 1TB and four tuners. You can also get Tivo service on several televisions in your home. To enjoy this, you should consider the Tivo Mini VOX. You don't have to worry about paying extra costs on top of your monthly plan for this.
One of the reasons why Tivo is considered to be worth it is its versatility. If you enjoy watching live TV, you should consider Tivo, which can easily integrate with a cable subscription. You can even pause live TV when using this service. Tivo can help you record movies and shows when you want to watch them later. It delivers a high level of convenience by allowing you to schedule recordings.
Since Tivo integrates with different streaming apps, it can help you find all your favorite content on Amazon, Hulu, and Netflix. It allows you to stream content on various devices such as an iPad or iPhone. Some users are, however, disappointed with Tivo since it integrates with fewer streaming apps compared to its competitors.
Regardless of the specific Tivo plan you choose, you will enjoy the many features included in this platform. Tivo stands out since it offers speed-watching for slow-moving broadcasts such as movies and sports. Unlike most of its competitors, you can enjoy using Tivo without getting disrupted due to too many commercials. Since Tivo is compatible with 4K setups, using it can help you enjoy an immersive viewing experience.
Tivo comes with a unique search function known as Wishlist, which can scan streaming services and broadcast TV simultaneously. Feel free to enter the name of an actor, title of a show, or a certain genre on the search function and wait for Wishlist to show results. Since Tivo started working with Amazon, so many customers have been benefiting from the service known as Amazon Unbox.
This gives you the chance to rent or buy television programs and films at Amazon.com. You can then download them to your TV set and watch them at any time. If you choose a Tivo set-top box that has network capability, you can manage it remotely. You only need to install certain software that emulates the operating system of Tivo.
Apart from the features, you will also like the excellent user interface of Tivo. You cannot compare the interface of this DVR with VCR. The Tivo set up is also quite straightforward. Once you have set up Tivo, you can easily activate most of the features.
Merits Demerits
It allows users to record videos on the hard disk. Tivo can accumulate user's private information.
You can pause and rewind programs.
Great interface
It is convenient to use
If you no longer want to pay for DVR services that cable companies offer, you should consider Tivo. This is a DVR that can offer similar services at a cheaper cost. Many people still consider Tivo to be worth it since it makes digital video recording quite accessible. It also offers a lot of unique features that are hard to find elsewhere. Tivo has remained a popular option due to its great value.
Yes. Regardless of the precise plan that you choose, you can either subscribe to it annually or monthly. Though Tivo used to offer a lifetime subscription, this option is no longer available.
Yes. The Internet can help you configure and activate the unit. You also need an internet connection to download Tivo's program guide.

Exploring man's ecological, spiritual, and symbolic relationship with nature through meditation and thoughts on water, this volume is a useful tool for religious practitioners of all faiths to understand more deeply the connection between their religious life and the earth. Based on the idea that water is the original, primordial mirror, the examination details how a community's values are now reflected in its water, asking questions such as "What are our polluted rivers and streams saying about us? And does that match what our faith instructs us to be?" With input from many voices and traditions, the collection includes essays and poetry from a wide range of intellectuals and poets, including Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, Thomas Merton, Huston Smith, and Henry David Thoreau, among others.

The £4m complex is part of Bruntwood SciTech's wider Alderley Park scheme
GALLERY | Alderley Park sports centre opens
Bruntwood SciTech's Pozzoni-designed Alderley sports complex is now open to the public.
Construction started in December 2018, with GMI Construction Group as lead contractor. The £4m scheme in Alderley Edge completed in October before opening its doors to the public.
The 21,000 sq ft development consists of a four-court sports hall, fitness suite, group exercise studio along with a dedicated group cycle studio.
Outside, there are three floodlit tennis courts and a 5-a-side, 3G-surfaced football pitch with changing facilities.
The complex is operated by Everybody Sport & Recreation and known as Everybody @ Alderley Park.
Martin Bransby, director at Pozzoni Architecture, said: "We were given a unique, off-piste brief and a stunning site to work with. From the outset, we tried to bring the feeling of being outdoors into our designs for the building.
"We've used traditional and sustainable materials in some innovative ways, to give a fairly simplistic building a dramatic appearance and genuine curb appeal."
Dr Kath Mackay, managing director at Bruntwood SciTech, said: "The new gym and sports centre at Alderley Park mirror the high-tech innovation of its office and laboratory spaces. Alderley Park has long been recognised as a great place to work and these new facilities will support the health and well-being of all those living and working here along with that of the local community.
"Its unique design has been recognised already, with the building winning the Building of the Year category at the recent Specifi Awards."

I am a math tutor at Brookdale Community College. I tutor students in a variety of college math courses, going from basic algebra up to Calculus 3. With a good foundation, any topic is manageable. Homework is key and my students have to complete it before our lesson. The key to succeeding in math is to be extremely organized and have a notebook which contains class notes, homework and extra practice problems. I encourage my students to re-write the class notes after they come home from school. This way the students actually understand what happened. Before any of my lessons I ask the student to send me an outline of the topics they would like to go over and I prepare accordingly. This way my time and their time is used efficiently.

Gene Simmons Puts Las Vegas Home on Sale for $14.9 Million
Stetson Ybarra Photography / Paul Kane, Getty Images
Gene Simmons is selling a stunning Las Vegas home just five months after he bought it, saying his family dislikes the area's intense heat.
"They're not fans of 115-degree weather," the Kiss star told the Wall Street Journal about his decision to sell the glass-dominated six bedroom home.
You can see pictures of the home below. It is currently being offered by the Ivan Sher Group with an asking price of $14.95 million.
Simmons recently sold his family's longtime Beverly Hills home, familiar to fans at the setting of his Family Jewels reality show, for $16 million. He still owns a home in Malibu and another in Whistler, British Columbia.
In March, Simmons told the New York Post that he was leaving Beverly Hills due to "unacceptable" taxes and a constant parade of celebrity-seeking tour buses. "After a certain point, we have had enough of that, even though we appreciate the attention."
Kiss just wrapped up the 2021 North American leg of their farewell End of the Road tour. They will head out to sea on Oct. 29 as hosts of the 10th annual Kiss Kruise, and two months later Kiss launch a 12-date Las Vegas residency at Planet Hollywood's Zappo Theater.
Simmons' bandmate Paul Stanley recently told UCR that Kiss' pandemic-delayed farewell tour, which began in January 2019 and was originally scheduled to conclude in July 2021, will now wrap up sometime in late 2022.
"It seems only natural to be in New York," Stanley says of the band's last show. "That is where the band started, and that was really the background for the band getting together and writing these songs, and played loft parties and played clubs starting with an audience of probably 10 people. It seems we should go full circle."

est le titre générique d'une série de nouvelles japonaise d'heroic fantasy de l'écrivaine japonaise Kaoru Kurimoto. Commencée en 1979, elle se trouve toujours en cours de publication. Initialement prévue pour 100 volumes elle a atteint, en avril 2009, le nombre de 126 ouvrages.

Distinctions
Elle a obtenu le prix Seiun en 2010 (meilleur roman japonais de science-fiction).

Thèmes et aléas de l'écriture
Guin Saga raconte l'histoire d'un mystérieux guerrier à tête de léopard nommé Guin. Amnésique, la quête de sa mémoire et de son passé le mènent sur de multiples continents.

Le dessinateur japonais Yoshitaka Amano en a dessiné de nombreuses couvertures, ainsi que des illustrations.

Kentaro Miura, l'auteur de Berserk considère que Guin Saga constitue une source d'inspiration importante pour son manga.

Le décès de Kaoru Kurimoto en 2009 des suites d'une longue maladie, a sonné une dernière fois dans tous les médias, les louanges d'une auteure ayant réalisé l'exploit de passionner durant 30 ans plusieurs générations de lecteurs autour d'un univers riche et d'une histoire unique encore d'actualité aujourd'hui avec ces nouvelles adaptations plus moderne.

Aperçu du synopsis

L'histoire est centrée autour d'un guerrier mystérieux nommé Guin, un amnésique avec un masque de léopard magiquement apposée sur sa tête. Ne se souvenant de rien sauf de son instinct de combat et du mot Aurra, il est confronté à un monde chargé de danger, d'intrigue et de magie.

Histoire

Guin Saga raconte l'histoire d'un mystérieux guerrier nommé Guin. Amnésique, il se réveille dans la dangereuse forêt de Rood avec un masque à tête de léopard fixé magiquement sur son visage.
Il vient au secours des jumeaux héritiers du royaume de Paroh, Remus et Linda, qui sont pourchassés par l'armée de Gohra qui vient d'envahir leur pays. Malgré la puissance de Guin, ils tombent entre les mains du Comte Vanon, le seigneur qui a ordonné le massacre du royaume de Paroh et de la famille des deux jumeaux. Enfermés dans les geôles de la forteresse de Stafolos, les jumeaux se prendront d'amitié pour une jeune fille Sem, un peuple-singe originaire des landes stériles de Nociphère. Ils feront aussi la rencontre d'Isht Van, dit Le Mercenaire Rouge, ou encore l'Épée magique, un jeune mercenaire sans scrupules mais sympathique à qui un oracle a prédit que son destin serait de diriger un royaume et d'épouser la princesse de lumière, qu'il croit reconnaître en la princesse Linda.

À l'aide de celui-ci, ils s'enfuiront suivant le fleuve Kes séparant Gohra de Nociphère.

Le général Amnélys – une jeune femme de 18 ans aussi belle qu'impitoyable et fille du roi du Palais du Scorpion Doré, qui est la force de décision Mongaul – profite de cette évasion pour envahir Nociphère.

Le petit groupe devra rallier les tribus Sem et un peuple légendaire de géants, les Lagons, pour bouter les envahisseurs et venger le massacre commis par Gohra.

Personnages
 Guin : Combattant exceptionnel à tête de léopard, Guin s'est réveillé à Nocifère, amnésique, avec le mot "Aurra" comme seul souvenir.
Il decouvre en même temps que le lecteur qu'il parle instinctivement la langue des habitants de Nocifère.

 Les jumeaux de Paroh : ils sont blonds et fins. Linda est la prophétesse de Paroh, destinée à assister son frère. Remus deviendra le roi de Paroh, il est en apparence plus sensible et moins courageux que sa sœur.

 Isht Van : Guerrier mysterieux qui accompagne Guin et les jumeaux de Paroh. Il possède une intuition extraordinaire qui l'a sorti de nombreuses situations dangereuses.

Romans
Ils sont partiellement disponibles en France aux éditions Fleuve noir :

Mix together the flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.
Blend together the date molasses, coconut milk, and oil.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet with the apple cider vinegar. Blend quickly just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake tins.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the cupcakes are puffed and dark golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cupcakes to sit for five minutes and then remove them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
These cupcakes are extremely flavorful and need no frosting at all. If you would like to frost them, though, as I did for the workshop, the frosting I used is below.
cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and/or cloves (add to your tastes, starting with 1/4 tsp of your choice or choices.
In a mixer, mix the butter until smooth.
Slowly drizzle in the agave with the mixer on low to blend the agave in with the butter until creamy. Taste to see if you need to add any more agave.
Add the tofu cream cheese and blend well until the frosting is to the desired thickness for easy spreading.
Add the spices to your liking. I use all four for a nice spice frosting.
If the frosting is too thick, you can thin it with milk of your choice. If it is too runny, thicken it with a little powdered sugar, using only 1 tsp at at time.


This page used to host a template letter, written by GH tutors, but has been temporarily unpublished due to University management requests. If you are a GH tutor at the University of Edinburgh, and would like to know how other tutors explain their working conditions to students, please get in touch with the organisers of the UCU PG & PD Network and/or attend their next meeting at 15.00 – 16.00, Wednesday 24 October at the Union Offices.
Edinburgh University Students' Association and the University and College Union Edinburgh (UCUE) branch welcome the University of Edinburgh's decision to not enter the second year of the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF). The Teaching Excellence Framework is a criterion that has been imposed on universities by the UK Government, ostensibly designed to measure teaching quality, but ultimately deepening the commodification of Higher Education.
The Teaching Excellence Framework uses flawed metrics to measure teaching quality – teaching quality should not be measured arbitrarily by student satisfaction. The implications of entering the UK Government's framework for measuring teaching quality may be profound, and will dramatically change the Higher Education sector in the long-run, as the various ways in which students and staff engage in learning and teaching are reduced to measurements that do not capture either students' or staffs' experiences in the classroom.
The Students' Association and UCUE recognise their mutually reinforcing interests, and will continue to work alongside each other in the future. If the University reconsiders engaging with the Teaching Excellence Framework, the Students' Association and UCUE will ensure that appropriate preventative action is taken.

What A Year !
Well, it's been quite a year. This has been just so much fun. Starting with the Soc Hop Reinvented at Knuckleheads on August 31st, 2006 right on through Jam Night with The Silver Tones at Marty's Blues Cafe on September 12, 2007, it has been a time I would have never dreamed possible, though over the last 40 years I have often dreamt of it. Well, it has indeed been a dream come true for me and I have greatly enjoyed my reconnection with all of those who have been involved. I have seen more old friends and made more posts to this blog than I would have imagined likely, and it has indeed been fun, and I hope to continue doing both, though I may not be able to keep up the constant pace of it all. I have recently joined the Kansas City Blues Society and hope to become an active member of this great organization which is nationally recognized for 'keeping the blues alive in KC'. Future posts here, as well as the newsletter that I email out, may include recomendations and reviews of local events other than just The Silver Tones, who will always remain dear to my heart. For a schedule of The Silver Tones play dates you can always check in at http://www.frankplas.com/ . Also, as the last few posts indicate, I have become somewhat of a regular at Marty's Blues Cafe. Marty is a great guy trying to do a great thing, and if you haven't been yet, you ought to go. The food is good and the music is always great. It's a cozy atmosphere and for me, it's close to home, which makes it really convenient. Maybe I'll see you there. The next few posts are going to be a recap of pictures of both the old and the new SOC HOP, and will include some newly found pictures of both places that I came across while sorting through my Dad's stuff. Till then....MW

Silver Toned History
"The Fabulous Silver Tones made history Friday night when they made their first Johnson County club performance in over 44 years.," advised Tom Jambrosic. It was, indeed, a party at Marty's when Lil' Joe Sherrick, Leo Castanza, and Frank Plas took the stage at Marty's Blues Café in Merriam. After a few brief comments by Mr. Marty Cohen, the microphone was turned over to the wonderful Connie Crash, blues DJ at KKFI FM Radio and part-time bar host at Marty's, who introduced The Silver Tones. She made note of the fact that she had just read the KC Star article about The Soc Hop and The Silver Tones, and ask Frank about the KUDL Radio hits, Midnight Thunder and Dimples, both of which we got to hear before the evening was over. I thought the guys sounded great and enjoyed hearing many of my old favorites as well as some new material they just recently worked up. Everyone seemed to be having a great time, and there were few empty seats in the house, though most of those there were the regular Silver Tones fans who usually show up at their events. I am sad to say there are a lot of people who respond to my emails saying they'll be there, but then fail to show up (you know who you are). I guess that's just the way it is and maybe someday the wall flowers will run out of excuses and get out of the house and have a little fun. Anyway, I think it is fun. Actually, for me, it has been a very fun year of remembering all the fun people and times that were, as Rod Clarke called it, 'a special window of time' in our lives. And now we are getting to experience it again - in many ways it is different now - but in many ways - it's still the same. When out on the dance floor, the experience is the same (oh, but for some younger knees and healthier lungs). When watching Joe, or Frank, or the sticks of the drummer, the experience is the same, excepting that now their music brings back memories of the past, when before, those very memories were in the process of being made. To all of those Silver Tones fans who helped to celebrate the first year of The Silver Tones rebirth, thank you so much for joining in the fun. And for those of you who aren't showing up, You Don't Know What You've Been Missing. I hope you will all join in for a fun time on Wednesday evening for Jam Night At Marty's Blues Café hosted by The Fabulous Silver Tones. Music starts at 7:00PM and Marty's Menu starts whenever you get there. Come have dinner and enjoy some tunes. If you sing or play, please join the jam. And remember, the best color in music is the blues.
I had asked Lil Joe Sherrick and others to comment on their experience attending last Friday evenings event: Kansas City's Greatest Reunion Jam, which was held at the H&R Block World Headquarters building in downtown Kansas City. The event, from 6:00 - 10:00 was billed as 'The Classmen and Friends". The promo flier read: "Great Kansas City rock bands from the 60's and 70's will reunite and perform at the H&R Block World Headquarters. The evening will feature our own Drew Dimmel and The Classmen who recorded hit records with Julie and Graduation Goodbye, The Chesmann, the Fabulous Four, and Garry Mac and the Mac Truque. Enjoy great food, drinks, dancing and an evening of great entertainment in this spectacular new downtown venue. Parking is included in your ticket price. $75.00 per person. Proceeds benefit the Parkinson Foundation of the Heartland and the University of Kansas Medical Center's Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorder Center." At the time the Promo was put together The Silver Tones were not listed as attending, but they were there and had a great time. Unfortunately the $75.00 per ticket was a little to steep for me, so I did not attend, however it was a Sold Out affair with a limited audience of between 500 and 700, so I was told. Lil Joe Sherrick emailed me saying, "Last evening was very memorable for all of us {who performed at the KC Reunion Jam}. To start with, we did a sound check in the afternoon, then they had a stretch limo pick up all the musicians and our spouses in groups, and took us over to Park Place Towers where they served us hors d'oeuvres, champagne, wine, or whatever we wanted, then took us back to the pavilion, to our dressing room where we rehearsed and got dressed for the evening. Frank, Steve & I dressed in black pinned-striped suits with black shirts and silver ties (thus The Silver Tones) and went on stage first. I can't remember all the songs, but we did open with John Lee Hooker's sexy Baby Lee, we also did Dimples, (Silver Tones style), then had Ron West & Alan Blascoe join us, performing Fannie Mae and then closed with Stevie Ray Vaughns' Pride & Joy. Next to perform was Ron West's The Chessmen, followed by Mike Myers and The Fab Four, and then Danny Gregory & The Mac Truque. Danny was in top form doing some of his James Brown renditions, then closing the show was Dru & Doug Dimmel with The Classmen. We had a jam at the end doing Sly Stone's Higher. Danny's old bass player, Buddy Haney came in from Oklahoma (he can play 15 different instruments and none of us have seen him in 30 years), along with Bill Organ. Most of the original members from each group were there, and we all had a wonderful time visiting with each other before the show and between sets. Doug & Dru put all this together, and made sure we were all given VIP treatment. They did have a professional camera crew there to video tape the whole event.Wished everyone could have been there. This was a performance I will never forget."
Ron West's take read,
"THE SILVER TONES- THE CHESMANN- MAC TRUQUE- THE CLASSMEN- THE FAB FOUR
THE BANDS ALL SOUNDED GREAT, All in all the whole thing was pretty good.
Not Perfect but what the Hell is perfect. FUN is the # 1 priority . WE HAD FUN-
I think all the bands sounded damned good, so I don't see any losers here. Old farts can still KICK butt."
And finally Bill Lee, president of the Kansas Music Hall Of Fame, wrote, " At last night's Reunion Jam in Kansas City, I had a chance to talk with several of the members of the Mac Truque including Garry Mac. He says they've been playing a lot of private parties and business meetings, but do get a public gig from time to time (usually at Jardine's).
Dani Gregory was in good voice and in a good mood. He seemed to be happy with the crowd. Billy Organ played drums. He was one of the two drummers from the old days, plus he played with Garry and Dani in the Roulettes before the Mac Truque. He was in the Bygones with Garry and Buddy Ross before that. The Bygones is another band that should be in the Hall of Fame.
Pat Pearce is playing keyboards with the Mac Truque these days. He also played with the Classmen last night. I kidded him about having another gig later, and he said he probably would drop by one of the clubs and sit in with another band. Three bands in one night's pretty good for anyone. Pat was a HoF inductee in January with the Blue Riddim Band. He is one busy musician".
Sure Is A Lot Of Musical Talent Right Here In Kansas City.... So Get Out And ENJOY..

A Tribute To My Dad - Mike Weaver
A tribute to my Dad ! I write this on Tuesday, March 27th, 2007 at 9:00 PM. My Dad died today. Just about four hours ago. He had just turned 84 three weeks ago. He fell down on St. Pats Day, 10 days ago and broke his neck. He also had bleeding in the brain. He was in Neuro ICU at KU Med Center. Surgery repaired the broken neck but the bleeding in the brain caused enough damage that he could not live without life support, which was removed yesterday. The immediate family had just completed a meeting with the representative from the Hospice center where Dad was to be moved within the next few hours, and we were actually leaving the hospital when the Hospice Rep caught up with us and told us that Dad had just stopped breathing. She asked if we wanted to come back up to his room to be with him. We immediately did a U-turn and were back in Dad's room in just a minute. He was not breathing and his skin looked pale. I pulled the sheet down a little so I could see his chest and I grabbed hold of his lifeless hand, and remembered his firm handshake. He was not breathing. I saw his chest move and heard a small sigh - and then - nothing..... My brother and his wife stepped up beside me and we just stood there looking - looking for any sign - but ....nothing. Dad was dead. I held his hand. Tears came to my eyes. I felt my face smile and that didn't seem right. But then I realized that I was happy for Dad....he was at peace now....the last ten days had been hell for him. And for the last nine years, since he had his stroke, he had fought the good fight, put on a good front, and always, no matter how gloomy things seemed, he whistled a happy tune and said, "Hey, It's A Beautiful Day - we're all just lucky to still be here." And that is who my father was - always the optimist - never a complainer - and eternally thankful. Dad was one who, no matter how gloomy things appeared on the surface, always saw the beauty of the day and was thankful for it...He took me many places and taught me many things. I shall truly miss him...He was more than my dad - he was my friend....
MIDNIGHT THUNDER By Frank Plas
Click on the picture to enlarge....This should bring back a memory or two.
Frank Plas and The Silver Tones first record, written by Frank and originally called 'Westcoast Walk' first placed on KUDL's chart in position #40 on May 31st, 1960. By July 15th, in just six short weeks, Midnight Thunder moved into position #4. Amazing for four local teenagers - look at the listings and who they were competing against. The Silver Tones beat out 'BeBopALula' by The Everly Brothers, and songs by Duane Eddy, Hank Ballard, Paul Anka, Chubby Checker, The Ventures, and a whole list of other professionals. Quite an accomplisment, I would say.......
PS. You can hear a clip of Midnight Thunder on the Music Page at frankplas.com or you can listen to the whole song by scrolling 3/4 the way thru Dan Martin's website where he has a link to it http://www.martin.mesanetworks.net/banddays.htm This is a great site with lots of info about the old days and it is actually where I first got reconnected to the SOC HOP days after Googling 'The Silver Tones'. The World Wide Web is amazing indeed......
