Top 40 Songs This Week (UK Edition) – 19 June 1983: Songs 10-1
Welcome back to this week's Top 40 Countdown! If you missed the previous songs, you can go ahead and check out songs 40-31, 30-21, and 20-11. This has been an exciting week for '80s music! Today, there may be a few songs we haven't heard much of. However, this list is covered with very familiar songs, and legendary artists. Let's conclude this week's countdown, and check them out!
10. "When We Were Young" by Bucks Fizz
Bucks Fizz was a U.K. pop group that had enormous success in Europe from 1981-84. Although they had no hits in the U.S., they had a string of top 10 hits in the early '80s. This song was their 6th Top 10 hit.
9. "Nobody's Diary" by Yazoo
This song by the synth-pop group, would peak at #3 in the U.K. It did not chart on the Mainstream U.S. chart, but did hit #1 in the U.S. Dance Clubs. I love this band, and Alison Moyet's voice is so mesmerizing for me.
8. "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" by Michael Jackson
This one is a bit familiar to everyone around the world. This was the opening track on Thriller, and the fourth single released. It would peak right here this week at #8 in the U.K., and reach #5 in the U.S.
7. "Waiting for a Train" by Flash and the Pan
I love me some play on words! I had never heard of this group before. This was The Australian group's most successful single, peaking right here this week at #7.
6. "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues" by Elton John
Has anybody seen the Elton John movie, Rocketman? I haven't seen it yet, but I heard it wasn't that great. Anyway, this was one of Elton John's biggest hits of the '80s. It would peak at #5 in the U.K. and #4 in the U.S.
5. "Bad Boys" by Wham!
This was the third single released from Wham!'s debut album, Fantastic. I was not familiar with this song. If I had heard of it when it was first released, I would have made fun of it. I was in the beginning of my rocker phase, and Wham! singing about bad boys would have been funny to me.
4. "Flashdance…..What a Feeling" by Irene Cara
Here's another smash hit that is very familiar tom U.S. audiences. This is pretty much Irene Cara's signature song. This is the theme song for the iconic '80s movie Flashdance.
3. "China Girl" by David Bowie
Here is a smash hit by the late, great David Bowie, from his iconic Let's Dance album. This song was written by Bowie and Iggy Pop in 1977, and actually first appeared on Iggy Pop's debut solo album The Idiot. But, this version was the more successful.
2. "Baby Jane" by Rod Stewart
Here is another music legend. This song was Rod Stewart's final #1 single in the U.K. As the decade went on, Stewart was actually more popular in the U.S. He had a huge amount of success with his Out of Order album in the U.S. This song, from his Body Wishes album, peaked at #14 in the U.S.
1. "Every Breath You Take" by The Police
And we wrap up this week's countdown with what I consider one of the most overrated and overplayed songs of the '80s. There were so many much better songs on their Synchronicity album. However, this is the one that became their signature song. It was a #1 hit in the U.S. for 8 straight weeks, and was #1 here in the U.K. for 4 straight weeks. I may think the song is overrated, but there's no denying its success. And it does give me nostalgia for the '80s. So there's that.
Well, that wraps up this week's countdown. What a great week of music! I hope you enjoyed it. What were some of your favorite songs? The next Top 40 will be back in the U.S. In the meantime, Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars.
80s80s MusicBucks FizzCountdownDavid BowieElton JohnFlash and the PanIrene CaraMichael JacksonRod StewartThe PoliceTop 40Top 40 CountdownWham!Yazoo
Hi Everybody! Welcome back as we continue the countdown! I understand that as we get into the late 80s, we are starting to lose that classic 80s sound. So, this can be depressing for some. But for me, this was a great time. I had just graduated high school. And because I was working a part time job, I was starting to get my own money. So of course I spent a lot of it on music. The late 80s were good to me as I was coming into my own.
Now, let's Return back to the week ending November 5, 1988, and continue the countdown!
30. "Edge of a Broken Heart" by Vixen
Great way to start the countdown today! I loved Vixen from the time they first came out and released this song. I actually had this on a 45. If you like this song, you should check out Vixen's entire self-titled album. Every song is great, and the album would be one of my top "desert island" choices. It should also be noted that Richard Marx was one of the writers of this song.
29. "Don't Worry Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin
I'll be happy when this annoying song is over.
28. "Don't Be Cruel" by Cheap Trick
OK, I'm happy now. This is a pretty cool cover of Elvis' hit. This is a good follow-up to Cheap Trick's comeback #1 smash hit, "The Flame".
27. "The Promise" by When in Rome
This awesome song by the British band When in Rome, reached up to #11. It had a bit of a resurgence in recent years, as it was featured in the cult movie Napoleon Dynamite in 2004.
26. "Walk On Water" by Eddie Money
The hits keep on coming! I guess I was on a 45 kick in 1988, as I also owned this one. This song was written by one-time Sammy Hagar keyboardist Jesse Harms.
25. "Forever Young" by Rod Stewart
This was the second single released from Rod Stewart's awesome Out of Order album. I had lost hope in Stewart staying "forever young" as he was only focusing on big band music in recent years. However, he just released a new pop album, Blood Red Roses on September 28, 2018.
24. "A Word in Spanish" by Elton John
I had totally forgotten about this song. This was the other song released from Elton John's Reg Strikes Back album, after "I Don't Wanna Go On with You Like That". With the exception of a few songs, I still much prefer his 70s music.
23. "Waiting for a Star to Fall" by Boy Meets Girl
This song was inspired for the Girl, Shannon Rubicam, when she saw an actual falling star at one of Whitney Houston's concerts at the Greek Theatre. The folowing is from Wikipedia: "Initially, the duo did not consider recording it, and instead submitted the song to Clive Davis hoping he would decide to use it on Houston's next album. He rejected it, suggesting that it did not suit her. The song was then offered to and recorded by Belinda Carlisle for her 1987 release Heaven on Earth, at the insistence of her label, but Carlisle disliked it and refused to include it on the album."
Well that worked out for Boy Meets Girl, as it became their signature hit.
22. "Giving You the Best That I Got" by Anita Baker
This was Anita Baker's biggest hit on the Hot 100 as it would go on to peak at #3. It also topped the Billboard R&B chart for 2 weeks. It also won Grammys for Best Female R&B Vocal performance and Best R&B Song.
21. "Love Bites" by Def Leppard
This was never one of my favorite Def Leppard songs. However, it was their only #1 hit. I have warmed up to it over the years, and love it now. Part of the reason is the nostalgia factor, and part of it is that it is a great song!
That wraps up today's list of songs. And what a great list it was! What do you think? What were some of your favorites? What were you doing this week in 1988. I'd love to hear from you. In the meantime, please come back tomorrow as we continue the countdown.

10. "Nikita" by Elton John
Ah, the good ole days of the Cold War. Too bad those days are over, right? Right? Well, maybe we'll get a Nikita '18 update version this year.
One cool thing about this song that I didn't know, is that George Michael and Nik Kershaw are on the backing vocals.
9. "Addicted to Love" by Robert Palmer
This is one of the most iconic music videos ever. The five models in the video are Julie Pankhurst (keyboard), Patty Kelly (guitar), Mak Gilchrist (bass guitar), Julia Bolino (guitar), and Kathy Davies (drums). Andy Taylor of Duran Duran (and a bandmate of Palmer's from The Power Station) provides lead guitar.
8. "Let's Go All the Way" by Sly Fox
This very cool song was the only Top 40 hit for Sly Fox, making them a one-hit wonder.
7. "Manic Monday" by The Bangles
This worldwide smash hit was The Bangles' first hit single. It was originally intended for the group Apollonia 6 in 1984. And yes, that means it was written by Prince.
6. "What You Need" by INXS
This was the first Top 10 hit for INXS in the U.S. At the Countdown Music and Video Awards for 1985, in Australia, this won for Best Video.
5. "These Dreams" by Heart
This was the first Heart single on which Nancy Wilson performed lead vocals instead of Ann. It would also be Heart's first number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
4. "Secret Lovers" by Atlantic Starr
This was was Atlantic Starr's true breakthrough hit on the pop charts in both the US and UK.
3. "Kiss" by Prince & The Revolution
I still remember listening to the radio while playing a computer game, when the DJ said that they were going to play the new Prince song, "Kiss", for the first time. It was exciting for me to be able to catch the debut of a song on the radio. I've been a fan of this song ever since.
2. "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A." by John Cougar Mellencamp
This is a fun rocker by Mellencamp, who had quite a good run of hit songs throughout the '80s.
1. "Rock Me Amadeus" by Falco
And we have arrived at the #1 song of the week! Of course, it's a song that will be stuck in your head the rest of the day. While Falco was wildly popular in Germany, his native Austria, and much of Europe, this was his only #1 hit in both the U.S. and U.K. With "Rock Me Amadeus", Falco became the first German-speaking artist to be credited with a number-one single in all mainstream US pop singles charts: the Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100 Singles. Prior to Falco, "99 Luftballons" by Nena got to number one on Cashbox, but peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100.
Well that wraps up this week's countdown. I hope you enjoyed it. What were some of your favorite songs this week? And get your passports ready! The next time, we will go back to the U.K. to do a Top 40 there! Until then, Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars.

Top 40 Songs This Week: August 27, 1983- Songs 40-31
August 28, 2017 Paul Stroessner	2 Comments
Hey Gang! We're back with another Top 40 this week! This time, we go back to a time when MTV was coming into full swing, as cable television was coming into more and more homes. There were some acts that still did not catch on to the music video trend, and others full embraced it, and reaped the rewards. Now, let's Return to August 27, 1983, and begin the countdown!
[If you'd like to see the YouTube video of the song, you can click on the song title. If you'd like to purchase or listen to the song on Amazon, you can click on the album cover]
40. "Saved By Zero" by The Fixx
This song was released just before The Fixx released their signature hit, "One Thing Leads to Another". "Saved By Zero" was used in a 2008 Toyota campaign. OK, I just realized that when those commercials came out, I already had my current Toyota Corolla for 4 years – and I still have it to this day! Sure, you all have touch screens, and cameras in your car now. But, I bet you don't have a cassette tape deck like I do!
39. "You're Driving Me Out Of My Mind" by Little River Band
The Little River Band began changing musical direction here. Meh. It's kind of like how Saturday Night Live has a great run, then goes into a transitional phase, which sucks, before they go on another great run.
"38. Lady Love Me (One More Time)" by George Benson
Oh man! You can't go wrong with the smooth sound of George Benson! This really brings me back to the early 80s. This song is a classic.
37. "King of Pain" by The Police
Another classic! This song from their Synchronicity album, was the final original single released by the band.
36. "All Time High" by Rita Coolidge
This is from MY James Bond movie. Cable TV was new in our house, and we had HBO, where I watched Octopussy several times a week. I'm not sure if this is a good song or not, but I do love it because it brings me back to that time.
35. "Kiss The Bride" by Elton John
This is my favorite Elton John song of the '80s, if not of all time. What a great rocker!
34. "Don't You Get So Mad" by Jeffrey Osborne
I love early '80s R&B! And it doesn't hurt that this song is by Rhode Island's own, Jeffrey Osbourne. He is an awesome guy who does a lot of great charity work. So, he can be forgiven for letting The Bachelor use his signature song, "On the Wings of Love" in 2010.
33. "Never Gonna Let You Go" by Sérgio Mendes (with Joe Pizzulo & Leza Miller)
Classic early '80s ballad that is awesome! I still listen to this.
32. "True" by Spandau Ballet
Classic early '80s ballad that irritates me! I couldn't stand this song when it was first released. I do like it now, as it does make me feel nostalgic about a better time.
31. "Electric Avenue" by Eddy Grant
This is one of those songs that come to mind when you mention '80s music. I loved this when it came out. Then got sick of it, after the constant radio and MTV airplay – even after he released the better "Romancing the Stone" single. But, I like it again now, and limit how many times I listen to it.
That wraps up today's list of songs. What do you think? Do you have any favorites, or any "I forgot about that one!" moments. This is going to be great week, so come back tomorrow to check out the next 10 songs!

Opel Ampera wins the Monte Carlo Rally for electric and alternative propulsion cars
Article by Christian A., on March 29, 2012
The Vauxhall/Opel Ampera is on a winning streak as it got an award at 13th International Monte Carlo Rally for electric and alternative propulsion cars after having been recently given the award for "Car of the Year 2012." There were four Amperas named in this list of top 10 vehicles. The French duo Bernard Darniche and Joseph Lambert were able to beat the whole competitive field.
Last Sunday during the last day of this race, this electric vehicle got to the finish line in the capital of the Côte d'Azur principality. There were about 130 participants from about 30 manufacturers, including seven Amperas and one private Ampera team. The rest of the contenders included a Renault Fluence Z.E., a Tesla Roadster sports car, a Mitsubishi I-MiEV and a Peugeot Ion.
Aside from being the overall winner, the Ampera teams also did well. Coming in at No. 3 are Charlotte Berton and Olivier Sussot. Seventh place went to Jean-Claude Andruet and Patrick Lienne while Hanns Werner Wirth and Daniel Riesen finished 8th.
Vauxhall/Opel's Director E-mobility, Enno Fuchs, said that the fact that the Ampera has triumphed in this versatility contest under difficult conditions demonstrates its excellent balance between durability and fuel efficiency.
He added that this emphasizes its leadership role in the field of alternative propulsion. The rally began in the three towns of Annecy-le-Vieux, Clermont Ferrand and Lugano for 550 kilometres through Digne-les-Bains, the capital of the French district (département) Alpes-de-Haute-Provence to Monaco.
The teams had to drive of 272 kilometres on the second day, making them go past Monaco and the original route of the Monte Carlo Rally through the French Maritime Alps. Regularity tests were conducted on the teams who had to show off their driving skills by pushing their cars to the limit.
Opel's revolutionary Ampera is going to be the first electrically driven, emission-free vehicle in Europe that is suitable for everyday driving. The five-door Ampera's Voltec electric propulsion system provides lively acceleration as well as high levels of refinement. Moreover, it can comfortably seat four passengers. It offers a spacious trunk that can accommodate luggage, and features more than 500 kilometers of extended range.
The Opel Ampera's wheels are driven by electricity at all times and at all speeds. For road trips that cover up to 60 kilometers (MVEG), the car is powered by electricity stored in its 16-kWh lithium-ion battery.
What's more, the Ampera emits absolutely zero carbon dioxide while it is driving on electricity delivered by this cutting-edge battery. And when the battery runs out of energy, the car's gasoline/E85-fueled engine-generator flawlessly provides the electricity that powers the car's electric drive unit while also sustaining the battery's charge. This engine-generator mode extends your car's range to 500 kilometers, until you can charge the battery by plugging the on-board charge system of the car into a household 230-volt outlet.
Furthermore, unlike conventional battery-electric vehicles, the Ampera is without "range anxiety," giving you the peace of mind and the confidence that you won't be stranded wherever you are because of a depleted battery.
GM will manufacture the Ampera's battery pack at the first ever lithium-ion production facility that's operated by a major automotive company in the United States. The T-shaped pack contains more than 200 lithium-ion cells that provide ample power. Its electric drive unit, which is nearly silent, generates 370-Nm instant torque, the equivalent of 150 hp, acceleration of 100 km/h in around 9 seconds, and 161 km/h top speed.
Opel Ampera Wins Monte Carlo Rally
After winning the "Car of the Year 2012" award, the Opel Ampera has now also won the 13. International Monte Carlo Rally for electric cars and alternative propulsion in which it competed for the first time. Four Ampera ranked among the top 10 vehicles. The French duo Bernard Darniche and Joseph Lambert managed to beat the entire competitive field. On Sunday, the final day of the contest, the revolutionary electric vehicle reached the finish line in the capital of the Côte d'Azur principality. Some 130 competitors from about 30 manufacturers took part, among them seven Ampera, including one private Ampera team. The other contenders included a Renault Fluence Z.E., a Tesla Roadster sports car, a Mitsubishi I-MiEV and a Peugeot Ion. Apart from the overall victory, the Ampera teams with Charlotte Berton and Olivier Sussot ranked third, Jean-Claude Andruet and Patrick Lienne came in 7th and Hanns Werner Wirth and Daniel Riesen finished 8th, completing the fantastic result.
"The Ampera's success in this versatility contest under very challenging conditions proves its impressive balance between durability and fuel efficiency. This underscores our leadership role in the field of alternative propulsion," says Opel's Director E-mobility, Enno Fuchs. The "Rallye Monte-Carlo Des Énergies Nouvelles" took place for the 13th time and has established itself as the oldest motorsport event for vehicles with alternative propulsion. The Monte Carlo Automobile Club has organized the competition since 1995.
Endurance test for alternative propulsion
The rally started in the three towns of Annecy-le-Vieux, Clermont Ferrand and Lugano for 550 kilometers via Digne-les-Bains, the capital of the French district (département) Alpes-de-Haute-Provence to Monaco. On the second day, the teams had to complete a distance of 272 kilometers, leading them through Monaco and the original route of the Monte Carlo Rally through the French Maritime Alps. In these two days the teams were subjected to regularity tests and had to prove their driving skills by pushing their vehicles to the limit.
Apart from the regularity tests, the focus lay with fuel consumption. With the help of a ratio derived from vehicle weight, CO2 emissions, the energy density of the fuel and its consumption, the organizers were able to calculate a comparison value and draw up an overall ranking. "The sophisticated technology of the Ampera was always reliable and enabled our tremendous success," says the French rally co-pilot, Joseph Lambert who celebrated the victory with driver Bernhard Darniche. Darniche already won the legendary Monte Carlo Rally in 1979 and has more than 10 times been successful in winning the special stage over the famous Col de Turini.
The Opel Ampera is the first electric vehicle that can go anywhere anytime. A 16 kWh lithium ion battery powers the 111kW/150 hp electric motor. Depending on the style of driving and road conditions, distance of between 40 and 80 kilometers can be covered in the purely battery-operated mode, completely free of emissions. The wheels of the Ampera are always powered electrically. In extended-range mode, which activates whenever the battery has reached its minimum state of charge, the gasoline engine drives a generator that supplies the electric drive unit. The range extender enables an operating radius of 500 kilometers. On the road, the Ampera's electric propulsion system provides instant torque of 370 Nm enabling zero to 100 km/h acceleration in around nine seconds and a top speed of 161 km/h.

Hispanics Should Revere Columbus, Not Revile Him
Christopher Ortega
"I am so for this!" exclaimed a Facebook friend, linking to a headline about the Los Angeles City Council's vote to replace Columbus Day with "Indigenous Peoples' Day." On its face, this may seem like an innocent change. Who would be against celebrating the indigenous peoples of the Americas?
Alas, the movement to strip our first Catholic "Founding Father" of his public honors is anything but innocent. It's imperative that all American Catholics understand this effort to abolish the holiday, and that we continue to celebrate the man himself: Christopher Columbus. Hispanics and others of Native American descent must be especially diligent, as we in particular are being targeted to support the move to replace Columbus Day. After all, it was our indigenous ancestors whom Columbus and his men allegedly pillaged and enslaved. Why should we glory in the oppression of Native Americans by white, Christian conquistadors? I mean, it's 2019!
Now, let's set the record straight.
The first recorded celebration of Columbus's discovery of the New Word was conducted by the Tammany Society of New York on October 12, 1792. One hundred years later, President Benjamin Harrison encouraged Americans to mark Columbus's history-making discovery. By 1934, after tireless lobbying by the Knights of Columbus and Italian civic leader Generoso Pope, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared October 12 a federal holiday: Columbus Day.
Interestingly, the anti-Columbus Day movement started even before it was declared a federal holiday. That movement presented itself in three waves. The first was led by the Ku Klux Klan, who protested against state Columbus Day holidays, disrupted Columbus Day parades, and wrote articles against the "papal fraud," as they called it. The second wave was dominated by far-left historical revisionists beginning in the middle of the 20th century. Self-described anarchist and socialist Howard Zinn wrote about Columbus's enslavement and abuse of the native inhabitants of Hispaniola. (That's a historically dubious claim—one that we'll address in greater detail presently.)
The third and present wave of opposition to Columbus Day is the movement to replace it with Indigenous Peoples' Day. That cause has been taken up with relish by the youngest, trendiest corners of the mainstream media, as epitomized by a 2014 episode of HBO's Last Week Tonight. "How is this still a thing?" asks host John Oliver, before going on to call Columbus a "murderous egomaniac." With the recent barrage of anti-Columbus television shows, books, and articles, it's a wonder the federal holiday hasn't been struck down already.
But Oliver and his ilk are wrong. All Catholics—particularly those with Hispanic and Native American ancestry—should confidently celebrate Columbus Day, for three principal reasons.
Firstly, Columbus was a man of deep faith. Few of his detractors know, for instance, that he was a Third Order Franciscan. As a pious Catholic, he didn't own slaves, assault women, or commit any of the vile crimes attributed to him. On the contrary, Bartolome de las Casas wrote that "his person and venerable mien revealed a person of great state and authority and worthy of all reverence; he was sober and moderate in his food, drink, garments, and shoes… In matters of Christian religion, no doubt he was a Catholic and of great devotion."
There's no denying that the Spanish perpetrated great evils against the indigenous population of the Americas. But this only occurred after Columbus. He himself admonished the Crown to send no Spaniard to the New World "if he is not truly Christian, inasmuch as the planning and execution this undertaking has no other purpose but the increase and glory of the Christian religion." Moreover, he described our native ancestors as "the best people in the world, and especially because I have great hope in Our Lord that Your Highnesses will make them Christians."
Secondly, for Hispanics and Italians—lest we forget, he was born in Genoa—Columbus is a part of our ethnic, cultural, and racial heritage. For the vast majority of Hispanics, ours is a complex identity handed down to us by our indigenous, European, and African forebears. If we erase Columbus and the Spanish from our history, we'll never be able to fully understand and appreciate who we are and where we came from.
We all know the Spanish unwittingly brought new diseases to the Americas, against which the natives had no immunity. Yet how many will recall that they also brought schools and hospitals? Indeed, most of their contributions were decidedly positive: some of the well-known barbarities encountered in pre-Columbian America include infanticide, cannibalism, and human sacrifice. Columbus was the herald of a Christian civilization that sought to end such cruel practices; that civilization is itself integral to our Hispanic heritage.
Thirdly, Columbus brought the Faith to our indigenous ancestors. Had he not attempted his historic venture, it's doubtful that Central and South America would be predominantly Catholic: a seafaring Protestant nation could just as easily have "discovered" the New World and changed the course of history. Instead, it was settled by men whose first objective was to found a seminary for the propagation of the Faith. Consequently, almost 40 percent of the world's Catholic population today is Latin American.
In 1892, Pope Leo XIII promulgated his encyclical Quarto Abeunte Saeculo. In it, he writes:
Columbus is ours; since if a little consideration be given to the particular reason of his design in exploring the mare tenebrosum, and also the manner in which he endeavored to execute the design, it is indubitable that the Catholic faith was the strongest motive for the inception and prosecution of the design; so that for this reason also the whole human race owes not a little to the Church.
In order, therefore, that the commemoration of Columbus may be worthily observed, religion must give her assistance to the secular ceremonies. And as at the time of the first news of the discovery public thanksgiving was offered by the command of the Sovereign Pontiff to Almighty God, so now we have resolved to act in like manner in celebrating the anniversary of this auspicious event.
We decree, therefore, that on October 12, or on the following Sunday, if the Ordinary should prefer it, in all the Cathedral churches and convent chapels throughout Spain, Italy, and the two Americas, after the office of the day there shall be celebrated a Solemn Mass of the Most Holy Trinity.
Pope Leo declares that Columbus noster est—Columbus is ours—because of the intrepid mariner's devotion to the Catholic faith. The Holy Father reminds us that, at the first sight of land, Columbus immediately offered up thanksgiving to God. Leo encourages us to continue offering thanks and praise to God in his example. By honoring Columbus at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, we form a living bond with our first fathers in the New World—one that stretches to the saints of future ages, who will win this, our homeland, for Christ's holy Church.
¡Feliz dia de Colón!

PETE'S CAFE
The bar at 1102 South 4th Street, the corner of South 4th and Chestnut Street, went by a number of names over the years, and was expanded from a bar into a nightclub as time went by. The bar dates back to at least 1887, when John J. Brown was the proprietor. His son, William D. Brown, was Camden's City Clerk in the 1920s and early 1930s.
At the time of America's entry into World War I, Daniel Lamb was the proprietor. The bar was sold in the 1920s to the Corda family. Anibale Corda was listed as the proprietor from 1926 through 1929, when Luigi Corda took over, he operated the bar through 1931. Anibale Corda was still involved in the bar as late as June of 1933. After Prohibition was repealed in 1934 Marsilio Daziani acquired the business, and operated it under the name of Monte Carlo Cafe for a few years, before moving to a building in the next block at 1016 South 4th Street.
By 1937 Luigi Cinaglia, who had been operating the bar at 702 South 2nd Street, known in later years as the Paradise Cafe, had purchased the property, operating the bar and living with his family on the second floor of the building. The Cinaglia's were still living at 702 South 2nd street as late as february 1938. Son Pete Cinaglia later operated the bar as Pete's Cafe. Another son, Anthony Cinaglia, was killed in action while serving with the United States Army during World War II. During the Cinaglia family's tenure as owners of the bar, it became quite well known in Camden for its sandwiches. The Cinaglia family operated the bar through 1964. The Cinaglia family apparantly retained an interest in both locations for a time during the 1930s, however, by 1943 the South 2nd Street bar was under new management.
The bar appears in the 1966 as Joe's Cafe. The ethnic makeup of the neighborhood, which had a strong Italian-American presence prior to the time of the riots of 1967 and 1971, had changed by the 1970s. 1102 South 4th Street was by this time known as Baron's Lounge. At some pint in the late 1970s or 1980s the property next door on 4th Street was acquired, and the two buildings were merged, providing the bar a dance floor on the first floor and and a second floor lounge. A woman named Pauline became the owner during this period. She leased the bar out in the mid-1980s. Operating as the Phase 2 during the 1980s, 1102-1104 South 4th Street became a popular nightspot until a shooting forced the bar to close in the late 1980s. Pauline reopened briefly under her own name, prior to selling the property.
In the early 1990s a new owner, a fellow named Sid, completely remodeled the property, and renamed it the Cotton Club. Despite the protests of most of the neighbors, the bar was allowed to reopen, in part due to apparently undue influence on the part of certain parties within Camden's Regular Democrat Organization. While the Cotton Club operated quite profitably throughout most of the 1990s, it attracted a young and increasingly violent crowd, and after a series of shootings the bar closed after the 2001 murder of Jermaine Glasco.
The Cotton Club has reopened for brief periods occasionally since that time, but for the most part its doors have remained shut.

In the past decades, there has been a sharp increase worldwide in weather-related disasters. Climate change is aggravating the risks communities are exposed to.
Pakistan currently ranks 5th most vulnerable country to climate risk on the Global Climate Risk Index. In 2014-2015, Pakistan faced the second highest death toll and 14th highest economic losses compared with other countries on the index. Climate related risks are affecting communities across Pakistan in different forms like heat waves in Karachi (2016), extreme precipitation (Chitral 2010) Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF). Landslides and avalanches regularly occur in KP and Gilgit-Baltistan while Balochistan and Sindh are exposed to drought and coastal flooding.
There is an urgent need to better manage the rising risk of extreme weather events through better early warning, better disaster relief and risk reduction, climate-smart programs for health & care, water & sanitation and food security.

Roche and ImmunoGen need first-line data.
Roche and ImmunoGen's (Nasdaq: IMGN) T-DM1, now called trastuzumab emtansine, works. Still. Let's hope the Food and Drug Administration accepts the marketing application this time.
Roche applied for an accelerated approval of trastuzumab emtansine back in 2010 using phase 2 data. The accelerated approval program allows drugs to be approved with less data -- phase 2 is usually sufficient -- but is only available for patients who don't have any other options. The FDA decided that the breast cancer patients Roche tested in the phase 2 trial had other options, so the agency refused to even look at the marketing application.
Fast-forward to today. Roche said its phase 3 trial pitting trastuzumab emtansine against a combination of Xeloda, which it sells, and GlaxoSmithKline's (NYSE: GSK) Tykerb passed one of its two clinical endpoints. Breast cancer patients who had already failed Roche's Herceptin and a taxane, such as Bristol-Myers Squibb's (NYSE: BMY) Taxol, Sanofi's (NYSE: SNY) Taxotere, or Celgene's (Nasdaq: CELG) Abraxane, "lived significantly longer without their disease getting worse" -- called "progression-free survival" in scientific terms.
Roche is saving the numbers for a scientific meeting, and it didn't release data on the other endpoint, overall survival, because the data "are not yet mature" -- a polite way of saying enough patients in the trial haven't died yet. But assuming Roche isn't embellishing the data, it seems likely trastuzumab emtansine will be approved after the company applies to regulatory agencies later this year.
ImmunoGen will get a royalty on trastuzumab emtansine once it's on the market because it contributed the emtansine part of the molecule, a toxic payload attached to Roche's Herceptin (trastuzumab).
While this data is important for getting the drug on the market, it'll be data from a trial in first-line breast cancer patients that's most important for capturing most of Herceptin's $5.8 billion market. Roche is running a trial in that population comparing trastuzumab emtansine with or without another drug under FDA review, pertuzumab, to Herceptin plus a taxane.
To justify ImmunoGen's market cap, which is a little larger today after the positive results, the first-line trial needs to work and some of the other products being developed using ImmunoGen's toxic payload technology need to come to fruition as well. Fortunately, today's results should give investors a little more confidence that the technology is working.
ImmunoGen is a pick of the Fool's Rule Breakers newsletter. To see what else the analysts have up their sleeves, check out their new free report: "Discover the Next Rule-Breaking Multibagger."

Who's Afraid of Patent Law?
Do you, like me, grit your teeth and death grip your armrests when you get a patent law question? Well, at our first meeting of the year, on the Patent Life Cycle, Colette Napoli of ThomsonReuters broke down the who, what, when and why of patents in a way that even your kindergartner might understand. She went through the front page of a patent, explaining what each section signifies. We also learned about the differences in patent family coverage between Derwent and INPADOC. Turns out Derwent is much more selective than INPADOC when connecting patents to their family members. Colette also tested us on what could / could not be patented. Turns out my flying squirrel cannot be patented.
Amy Eaton then gave a great presentation about the top five patent-related questions that librarians typically receive. It was nice to be reassured that I am not the only one who thinks researching a company's assigned patents is a real challenge. I think I'm calling Amy the next time I have a patent research question.
Thanks for the excellent teachable moments. Colette did a fine job and Amy provided great real-world reference connections to the data sources. Will Colette's presentation be posted ?
Yes, I too enjoyed the meeting it was a very informative session.

Ocean Liners: Speed and Style

Detail from 'Riveters' by Stanley Spencer from the series Shipbuilding on the Clyde (© Imperial War Museums)
The final room of Ocean Liners: Speed and Style offers a sombre reminder of the perils of sea travel. A piece of carved wooden panel salvaged from the RMS Titanic is displayed bobbing gently on a simulated sheet of water. The ill-fated liner sank on its maiden voyage in April 1912. This chunk of wood from the first-class lounge speaks more eloquently of what was lost that night than photos, passenger lists or James Cameron's titanically boring 1997 movie (also featured in this exhibition).
The latest blockbuster show at the V&A features more than 250 objects – from posters, paintings and wall panels to evening wear and two-piece bathing suits. It delivers all the elegance, extravagance and design flair you'd expect from an era when Britain still ruled the waves and shipbuilding was booming on the Clyde, the Mersey, on Tyneside and at Harland and Wolff in Belfast.
The inclusion of scale models, engines and the painting 'Riveters' – one of the panels from Stanley Spencer's Second World War series Shipbuilding on the Clyde – reflects the achievements of those who actually built these great vessels. You can't get much more heavy-duty industrial than a sepia portrait of Isambard Kingdom Brunel posing in a stovepipe hat in front of the massive launching chains of the Great Eastern in 1857.
Most visitors to Ocean Liners: Speed and Style won't be drawn to the nuts and bolts but to the sheer luxury that seeped into every aspect of the furniture, fashion and interior design. From the late 19th century until the end of the 1960s, well-heeled passengers enjoyed all the trappings of a floating stately home on ships like the Normandie, the Queen Mary, the Olympic and the Lusitania.
Many of the great names in British design are represented in this exhibition, including Eileen Gray and Ernest Race, who both designed chairs suitable for lounging on deck (at sea or at home). There is tableware by Edward Bawden and his colourful mid-century English Pub Mural, which was designed for the SS Oronsay.
William De Morgan's beautiful tulip design on the earthenwire tile panel for P&O's the Sutlej dates from around 1882 and is one of my favourite objects in the exhibition.

But it was Art Deco that really put the wow factor into the golden age of ocean travel, with the French-built SS Normandie exemplifying the virtues of 'speed and style'. One of the most spectacular features of this show is a 5-metre-high lacquered gold-leaf panel, depicting idealised bodies in athletic poses ('Les Sports'). The non-athletic types enjoying the smoking lounge of the Normandie during the 1930s were no doubt left breathless with admiration.
There's always a point in a V&A exhibition where I'm stopped in my tracks by the sheer scale and imagination of what I'm seeing. In 2016 there was an attempt to recreate the sights and sounds of Woodstock at the climax of You Say You Want a Revolution? (Records and Rebels 1966-1970).
This time they've tried to recapture the elegance and hedonism of life on the ocean wave for those with oodles of money and a wardrobe to match. Mannequins lounge around a 30s-style deck pool, while behind a big screen shows a liner gliding by on the cool blue waters. Night-time brings a fashion parade, as guests make their 'grande descente' down the staircase before dinner, showing off the latest evening wear by Lanvin. It's all brought together under a simulated starlit sky.
Also sparkling was Lady Marguerite Allan's stunning Cartier tiara, which was commissioned by her Canadian husband in around 1909. She was travelling on the RMS Lusitania to England with two of her daughters, when the ship was torpedoed by a German U-boat in May 1915. Lady Marguerite and her tiara survived, but her daughters were among the 1,198 passengers who died.
The Titanic and the Lusitania are not the only ill-starred vessels in Ocean Liners: Speed and Style. The magnificent Normandie was only in service for a few years from 1935, before being commandeered for a troop ship in 1942. She caught fire, capsized and was eventually scrapped.
Turbo-electric power and Art Deco style are all very well, but you can't put a price on good timing.
Ocean Liners: Speed and Style continues at the V&A until 17 June 2018

Jan Vertonghen is confident that Tottenham can reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time since 2011 this season.
The 31-year-old Belgium international defender has been preparing for Spurs' last-16 first leg tie against German Bundesliga leaders Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on Wednesday night.
Vertonghen, who is poised to be up against England international midfield starlet Jadon Sancho in the left-back role with Ben Davies and Danny Rose struggling because of respcetive injury problems, felt the north Londoners merited a place in the last-eight 12 months ago.
Spurs beat Dortmund twice in last season's group stage and picked up four points from eventual winners Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Mauricio Pochettino's side recovered from a poor start to this season's Group B campaign as they defeated PSV Eindhoven and Inter Milan before drawing 1-1 against Barcelona at the Camp Nou to secure their place in the knockout stages.
And Vertonghen feels they can take that form into the two-legged tie against Dortmund.
He said: "We can beat anyone.
"We have shown that last year. Over two games we were the better team against Real Madrid who were the eventual winners of the trophy.
Tottenham, who are 9/1 to be the furthest progressing Premier League team this season, are 23/20 to defeat Dortmund in the first leg, while the German outfit are priced at 5/2 and the draw is 13/5.

The dark side of life in America Critical Essay
Updated: Jul 18th, 2018
With the challenges of modern day living, most individuals have to go to all possible lengths to earn a basic living. This is an element that has been well presented in authors Barbara Ehrenreich and Lars Eighner in their essays titled Nickel-and-Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America and On Dumpster Diving respectively.
We will write a custom Essay on The dark side of life in America specifically for you
Ehrenreich assumes the life of a struggling low-wage earner while trying to find out how individuals in such levels cope with life. Eighner on the other hand finds himself in a tight spot after losing his job and has to contend with feeding off other people's rubbish.
His essay is more of a guide on the 'profession' of dumpster diving and he tries to present the lifestyle in positive light. However, the unifying theme for both essays is poverty and the challenges that it brings along. The two authors spend a great deal of time trying to show how average and lowly individuals get by in life with or without a well defined income. This theme is well presented using such literary elements as style of narration and progression.
As far as the progression of the narrative is concerned, both authors begin by providing the readers with an explanation of how they find themselves in their current situation. Eighner dedicates a number of paragraphs explaining that she is a successful writer who however prides in experiencing the challenges that befall her subjects of study from a first-person point of view.
She goes ahead to explain the flow of events between the time she leaves her home and gradually takes the author through her experience as a low-income restaurant waitress upto the time that she throws in the towel and goes back to her old life.
The challenge of finding a decent place to live in at her income as is testament of how average unskilled female Americans have to contend with deplorable working conditions just for basic sustenance. The process of finding a job is equally tasking and it takes the author through disappointment after disappointment (Ehrenreich 174-175).
She answers the numerous call-outs for which she qualifies basing on the fact that she has no previous experience whatsoever and it takes some waiting before she secures one. The job search reveals the rot in the human resource departments of various companies when she learns that most of the job call-outs in newspapers are placed by companies as a way of finding easy replacements for the members of staff who quit or are sacked.
Eighner's story has an equally well laid out narrative structure and he starts by elaborating his fascination with dumpster's leading to a proper transition to the revelation that he went into dumpster diving even before he became homeless.
He then directly jumps into offering tips on how to successfully partake in the activity and he adopts a humorous approach that makes it easy for the reader to go through the journey of dumpster diving in a more relaxed way. The opinion of society as regards to poverty is elaborated when he explains how challenging it was for him to start out in the field occasioned by self-loathing and fear of mockery from friends and relatives.
The mistrust that most people have in regards to decisions made by the poor is manifest by how individuals have second thoughts pertaining to the quality of food items handed to them by the author "From time to time one of my companions, aware of the source of my provisions, will ask, "Do you think these crackers are really safe to eat?" (Eighner 167). It is definitely clear that the same individual would not question the safety of a mould-covered food item were it handed to him/her by a wealthy person.
Both stories provide thematic emphasis by having the narration from a first-person point of view. This works well especially because the two authors personally experienced the events in the narrations and only they are best placed to detail what they were going through at particular instances.
For instance, when Ehrenreich tells of her disappointment at failing to secure a job after numerous attempts, the reader can easily relate with her as she gives her heart-felt opinion using the same words that she would use were she to verbally narrate the story.
The same effect is created by Eighner's assertion that he is "…not here by chance; the Dumpsters in this area are very rich. Students throw out many good things, including food. In particular they tend to throw everything out when they move at the end of a semester, before and after breaks, and around midterm, when many of them despair of college. So I find it advantageous to keep an eye on the academic calendar" (167).
In conclusion, it is worth noting that with the social aspects of urbanization and modernization, more and more individuals are finding it increasingly challenging to secure meaningful employment and most of them have to do with harsh working and living conditions. This has been well presented by two authors who narrate events from different perspectives but still succeed in trying to show the effects of poverty on the social fabric.

Home / Press Releases / U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff to Lead Eight-Day Economic Delegation to India, Arriving August 30th
U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff to Lead Eight-Day Economic Delegation to India, Arriving August 30th
Senator Ossoff: "I am coming to strengthen the friendship between our nations and to meet the next generation of Indian leaders"
WATCH: Senator Ossoff's recent video message to the Indian people celebrating the 75th anniversary of India's Independence
Atlanta, Ga. — Today, United States Senator Jon Ossoff announced that he will lead an eight-day economic delegation to India arriving in Mumbai on August 30th and departing New Delhi on September 6th, 2022.
"I am leading this U.S. delegation to strengthen the friendship between our nations and to meet the next generation of Indian leaders," said Senator Ossoff. "We will also work to represent the Indian American community in Georgia, where the growing Indian diaspora is a thriving and beloved part of our community."
During his visit, Senator Ossoff will work to strengthen economic, scientific, cultural, and security ties between the state of Georgia and India. Georgia is home to over 100,000 Indian Americans.
Since his election, Sen. Ossoff has delivered for communities in every part of Georgia, successfully building bipartisan relationships to achieve results even in a divided Congress and polarized national political environment.
Sen. Ossoff has passed into law targeted investments to upgrade infrastructure, public health, public safety, and education across Georgia — for example, investing in higher education, removing lead pipes from drinking water systems, funding law enforcement and mental health services, helping more students get job training in the cybersecurity field, and supercharging American manufacturing of solar energy technology.
This week, Senator Ossoff sent a message to the Indian people celebrating the 75th anniversary of India's Independence Day where he highlighted the importance of deepening ties between the two countries.
Prior to his election, Senator Ossoff led a team that investigated and exposed corruption, war crimes, and terrorism for international news organizations.

The Nintendo 3DS Toy Box Challenge is the 3DS version of Disney Infinity. While for all practical purposes the Starter Kit looks the same as the console versions, it is not the same game!
The 3DS version of Disney Infinity does not feature Play Sets or a story mode of any kind, and it does not feature the free-for-all style of Toy Box. It does come with an Infinity Base, the same three Figures that come with the console version of the Starter Kit, and a Power Disc. The figures are still brought into the game via the Infinity Base, and additional figures sold separately will work within the game.
In a brief comment on their official Facebook Page, the company described the 3DS game as "a party game where you can level up your Disney Infinity figures". Whether the leveling up affects the figures when they're brought back into the game on consoles remains to be seen.
The game currently has no critic reviews on metacritic but has 4.0 in user reviews. Mike Fahey healined an article "If You Like Disappointment. You'll Love Disney Infinity on 3DS"

Q: IIS7 integrated pipeline mode slower than classic We are running a complex 64-bit ASP.NET 2.0 application on W2008 R2 Standard and stress tests done with VS2008 Team System have indicated that integrated pipeline mode is 30% slower than classic mode.
We have compared the application traces extensively and it appears that integrated mode is uniformly slower than classic. That is, there is no single point that causes delays in integrated mode.
This is quite the opposite to everything Microsoft says about the integrated pipeline, so it might be that there is something quite wrong with the configuration of the integrated mode or the server. But we have not found any settings that would have any effect on this. Some complaints that Sharepoint and reporting services are slower in integrated mode can be found, but our application does not use them so this is quite likely unrelated.
Any ideas what might cause the poor performance or how to debug this issue?

A: I would look at enabling tracing and see where your performance is slower. there is a good article here:
http://www.west-wind.com/weblog/posts/9827.aspx
Hope that helps.

A: Have you looked at thread usage in perfmon?
I have not tested this myself, but I am guessing that Integrated Pipeline will use more ASP.NET worker threads since all requests pass thru the managed handler.
You may find more details here:

Sheffield and Barnsley are in the running for a share of an £840 million Government fund to improve transport links between town and city centres and their suburbs.
Prime Minister Theresa May announced today that £60 million is on offer this year to kick start transport upgrades.
The idea is that better transport links will mean more well-paid jobs and opportunities for local people.
Sheffield and Barnsley councils have been selected to bid for a share of the cash, which will be available to fund the upgrade of public transport links over the next four years.
A grant of £50,000 has been made available to develop bids for the cash.
PM Mrs May said: "Right at the heart of the Northern Powerhouse, Yorkshire's cities are renowned across the country for their industry and innovation.
"And we're continuing to back communities across Yorkshire to maximise their potential for growth, with over £1 billion committed to the Great North Rail project and £106 million spent on improvements to the M1 around Sheffield.

Punch in/out is a recording technique used on early multitrack recordings whereby a portion of the performance was overdubbed onto a previously recorded tape, usually overwriting any sound that had previously been on the track used. The erasing and/or recording heads had to be very carefully aligned and applied to the tape surface with delicate timing and precision to avoid ruining the recording, and the practice was feared by most producers and engineers.
After the advent of 16 and 24 track equipment it was no longer necessary to risk the recording as a whole, as an empty portion of another track could be dedicated to such use. Vocalists in particular would usually record several renditions over separate parallel tracks, with the producers choosing the best bits from the layered vocals to mix together. The term "punching in" remained in use despite this fact.
In modern, Digital Audio Workstation-based recording environments, punching in and out can be done automatically by pre-selecting the in and out points on the timeline of the DAW. When the record button is pressed, the DAW software will play back the previously recorded track outside of these points. As soon as the playhead reaches the in-point, the recording begins and the previously recorded material is muted. At the out-point, recording stops and the software reverts to playback.

Following the signing of the Proclamation, gifts as well as introductions were exchanged between Laguna Beach and St Ives. The Mayor was thrilled that local artist, Glyn Macey, was able to attend to present the gift from St Ives to Laguna Beach – one of his artworks. Token gifts were presented to each of the visitors from California, given by the Mayor and sourced from the Visit St Ives Information Centre.
The relationship with Laguna Beach dates back to 2012 when the Laguna Beach Sister Cities Association approached St Ives to enquire whether we would be interested in forming a link between the two towns. The similarities between the two towns were readily apparent as both are in beautiful coastal locations with strong connections through tourism and art.
The Laguna Beach visitors spent a week in England on a whistle-stop tour which included visits to London, Windsor, Devon and Bath and well as two days in St Ives. During their time in St Ives the group managed to fit in visits to the Tate St Ives, the Barbara Hepworth Museum and the Leach Pottery.
Sunday's ceremony also featured a surprise appearance by The Three Belles who were performing elsewhere in the town that evening. The ceremony was followed by a reception and buffet (with cutting of the cake) which gave plenty of opportunity to mingle and discuss ideas of how the relationship between Laguna Beach and St Ives can be developed further. There was no shortage of ideas as those present at the ceremony had a diverse range of interests including art, music, education, tourism and business and it is hoped that these areas will form the basis of future links between Laguna Beach and St Ives.
