Citizens React to Rejection of Internet Proposal for Rural Areas
A crowd composed mostly of citizens residing in rural areas of Weakley County voiced strong support for approval of a resolution introduced during Thursday night's special called meeting of the Weakley County Commission authorizing West Kentucky and Tennessee Telecommunications Cooperative, Inc. (WK&T) to pursue all state and federal funding sources for the purpose of providing broadband access to the unserved areas outside the city limits of all municipalities located in Weakley County.

WEAKLEY COUNTY (October 14) — In reference to Thursday night's Weakley County Commission meeting, when a resolution authorizing the complete build of a fiber internet infrastructure network throughout the unincorporated areas of Weakley County at a cost of $10.5 million failed approval, those commissioners in favor of the resolution, as well as a large group of supporters in the audience, expressed disappointment over the vote.
Weakley County Mayor Jake Bynum states the three biggest arguments in favor of installing a countywide internet service are: (1) supporting the technological requirements of existing industries; (2) recruiting new industries; and (3) meeting the educational requirements.
Mayor Bynum said, "We know there are countless citizens who not only don't have access to 'quality' internet, they don't have access to it at all, because the service providers are not allowing any more customers to be added to their system."
Among those addressing the commission during the meeting was Renita Cantrell, who lives in Palmersville with her husband, Ted. Mrs. Cantrell stated Ted has major, long-term health issues, and because of the pandemic, he has been unable to go to the doctor as readily as he needs to. Telemedicine has become a huge avenue for people who are unable to travel or go into doctors' offices because of the pandemic. However, Ted can't receive medical help, because he has no internet service and is unable to utilize telemedicine.
A major issue discussed Thursday involves citizens in large areas of northern Weakley County, who lack two methods of communication. They not only have no internet service, they also have no cell phone service.
This situation is complicated by Frontier Communications' announcement they are not going to add new customers to their system, even though there are many potential customers around the county wishing to be hooked up.
Emily Dunn, who operates a small business in downtown Dresden, is moving to Palmersville, and Frontier informed her she not only will not have internet, she won't even have access to a landline for phone service at that location. With no landline phone, cell phone or internet service, she has no way to communicate with anyone, which could prove dangerous in the event of an emergency.
Mayor Bynum said, "What happens if someone breaks into her residence, or her home catches on fire. How is she going to protect her family, if she has no way to communicate with the outside world. That is really concerning."
"We've been contacted by countless citizens all throughout the county for various reasons," Mayor Bynum said. "We have students at the K-12 and collegiate level trying to learn remotely.
"School looks different today than it did 15 years ago," Bynum said. "There is a huge need for online resources. Students need internet at home to continue their educational advancement." He stated local college students have difficulty doing their class work, because they don't have access to the internet.
The need for internet access in the home is underscored by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has necessitated schools to shutdown, and requires students to have access to the internet in order to receive virtual learning at home and do their homework. Currently, approximately 10 percent of the student population of Weakley County is opting for virtual at-home learning, due to health concerns. In the event of another countywide shutdown, many rural students will have to drive into a town to take their classes while parked at a hotspot, such as a library, McDonald's or other sites.
"That's not a good option for our students," Mayor Bynum said.
"We have citizens trying to do business from outside of the municipalities, like J.P. Trucking that can't get Frontier to make a service call to them," Mayor Bynum said. "We have citizens like Kenny Louden, who works at Bethel University and can't work remotely. Lana Coates, whose husband is a day trader who can't make trades from their home, because they have no internet service. Jordan Yealey has contacted us because he has concerns about his children learning remotely. Shelia Bell, a local real estate agent says she has lost multiple deals because people won't buy property without internet access.
"We were contacted by Nichole Davis, who operates a poultry facility. Over the past several years, we've had major investments from the poultry and swine industries. Because of this, we've seen an increase in property values in rural parts of the county because of those operations. Those companies have made investments in our community and are increasing our tax base. Now, we're not willing to make an investment in order for them to actually do that work. That's very frustrating for us, and obviously, for those industries," Mayor Bynum said.
"We're not sure how many businesses chose not to locate here because we didn't have access to broadband. Often times, I've said, it's not what puts you on the list that's important. It's what keeps you off a prospect's list. Many times, we don't know what industries never even looked at us, or all, or the reasons why. But, we do know not having access to broadband is one of those reasons. That is a demand of industry today".
Since certain grant funding is not available for areas that have up to 25 mbps, and local municipalities already have internet service that meets this threshold, they are not eligible for these funds. This means individual cities are responsible for providing high-speed internet service for their citizens, if they choose to do so.
The cities of Dresden and Martin have already installed fiber-internet service through WK&T at their own expense.
Dresden Mayor Jeff Washburn said, "I understand why many on the county commission are concerned about incurring that much debt, considering they have already spent $3 million for a new county garage (at the Weakley County Highway Department), and $1.3 million on courthouse renovations."
"However," he added, "The internet is as important as our interstates. The jobs of tomorrow require internet access today. The lack of broadband hurts our rural communities in economic growth, health care and education. We must close the rural 'digital divide.'"
Although WK&T installed a major internet cable trunk line along Highway 45, the City of Greenfield cannot tap into it to have local high-speed internet service unless it receives a grant.
The City of Gleason has Charter Spectrum and local citizens have the option of paying to have fiber internet installed to local homes and businesses. Gleason City Hall already has high-speed internet installed.
The City of Sharon already has internet service, but not the higher speeds offered by WK&T.
County Commissioner Gary Eddings, who represents District 4 and is a member of the county's fiber research committee, composed of Eddings, Donaldson, Doster, Bell and County Mayor Bynum, said, "I thought it was a good plan, and we had a way to pay for it. I was sad to see so many people vote against it. There were a lot of ill people over how the vote turned out. I hope commissioners reconsider it in the near future when this topic gets bought up again. We're going to continue trying to get fiber throughout the county for everyone."
Mayor Bynum stated he was disappointed with the outcome of the vote, which rejected the resolution.
"I think we're most disappointed for the citizens of Weakley County in the rural areas," the mayor added.

We live in rural Gleason and do not have the option of Charter Spectrum. We tried Hughes Net and it was horrible, even with the high speed. We are raising two of our teenage grandchildren, who desperately need internet for some of their school. We have a teenage granddaughter in rural Martin attending UTM online because that's the only option right now. She spends countless hours at the campus library so she can take her classes and tests using their internet and thank God it's available for her and others in her situation. Weakly county is full of families like ours who desperately need a choice.


Thanks for the update Sigurd!
I think the first chapter was better for me, in my opinion the main issue with this chapter is that you're focusing too much in your OC. The action scene was very detailed and long, which may be good, but I thought that this was other kind of fic.
Er... well I have to expound a bit... ^^;; This will be the only chapter to do that .-. so I might as well elaborate on it a bit more... oh and don't worry... focus will soon shift once again to our beloved pairing because I don't plan on expounding on my OC's any more than this... I might do that somewhere else.
oh wow. nanoha is a princess...probably cursed by alexis...and now the headmaster (YS) is trying to save the rest of the kids....cooliO!!
Maybe you should go check out this summary again?
Although I tweaked some things that summary is still quite accurate and the main villain won't change at all.
This poem has always resonated in my mind ever since I began studying it. They say a man who was disabled wrote this poem and called it "Invictus" which means unconquered in our language. In this poem he says he never fazed even through the darkest of his times, he continued living his life to the fullest… nothing fazed him even though he was physically disabled already.
It's ironic that this was the last thing I studied before I was turned into stone. The darkness that covered me was my own current reality. I slowly lost hope in ever turning back, after all it's most likely that it has been several years since the downfall of the kingdom no one probably knows my true identity now except for one survivor: Captain and head librarian Yuuno Scrya, my last teacher and the one who taught me this poem.
What are you planning to do now? – The question echoed in my mind.
As I flipped through the pages of this diary I began to understand little by little what secrets the house of Alevi and the house of Ventris kept: they both shared the two halves of one sword. One being able to cure all kinds of sicknesses and the other to be able to bring a swift death upon one's enemy, when combined the sword becomes the infamous demon's bane: Fomortiis.
One of the many things I discovered was that both houses were deeply tied to the royal family of the kingdom of guardians, both families' sons and daughters were sent to guard the heirs of the kingdom forming a close confidante and ruler relationship between the royal family and both families.
Out of all the entries that were posted in the diary I find the final entry to pique my interest… it didn't look like it was written by the head of the house. It was written by someone else. The handwriting was completely different from the head of the house at that time and the way this person wrote it was also completely different; in the sense that how a particular scene was different from the way the original author would describe it.
I only write in this diary for one purpose that is to honor my dead opponent's wishes. He wished for me to record how he died.
I am ordered to do a number of things in this city of guardians. I am to acquire the swords both the Alevi and the Ventris family possess, to slay the royal family and both the Alevi and Ventris families as well, and to search for my mistress' objective.
Killing most of the families were easy. However, as I was about to attack the royal family's princess I was stopped by who was seemingly the captain of the royal guard.
"Out of my way." I ordered.
"I don't think so… Er… would ya mind givin' me yer name missy?" He said in a carefree way.
Strange. He seemed not to care whether I was the enemy or not, his manners apparently mattered more to him.
I didn't reply. I knew I was to answer to no one but my mistress. So instead I attacked him and our blades clashed.
"Yer forgetting yer manners Alexis." He said sternly.
I was not to answer to anyone. I was to follow my orders and get this over with.
Steel continued to clash until I finally caught my dagger to his side which was followed by my sword stabbing all the way through his stomach, making him collapse.
"Heh… I guess this means you're better than me Alexis. Could ya do this old timer a favour and write in the family journal, accounting what happened 'ere." He said, staggering in between his breathing.
"I will." I replied flatly.
"Dea bless yer soul… run, princess… r…un…" These were his final words.
I heard clapping from behind me. It was my mistress… I do not know why she is here but I do know that she was here because she was either to do something I could not or retrieve her objective.
"It seems our princess is left… and she possesses some power we don't want hindering us in the future…" She raised her right hand and made a purple ball of energy appear.
Right before my eyes I saw the princess turn to stone little by little.
And this ends the accounting of this incident.
It just stopped there. Someone named 'Alexis' wrote this but she left out a lot of details. I wonder if the princess she was talking about was Nanoha though… I do want to solve this mystery as fast as possible. I was not really going to settle leaving this academy without her. I wanted her to be able to live and breathe again. It was sad to see her in this state.
"What are you reading, Fate?" Came Sigurd's voice from behind.
"Eh… a diary? The one you told me to read?" I replied casually.
Her eyes widened. "What?! I thought that was on the restricted section?" She pondered out loud.
"Going to visit?" She asked.
"Yeah… I need some answers." I replied.
Right… And just like that I made my way to the shed where she was being kept in. I had to know what I needed to do.
'Nanoha?' I called out mentally.
'Yes, Fate?' Came the response from Nanoha.
So Nanoha is much more than we tought, wonder what power she have that needed her to be sealed in stone.
I feel jipped somehow but meh, still not my story. Even so Siggy I hope you continue this and put more effort into your updates, this felt really, really rushed.
ah so short ;P but thanks for some explanation of what's going on. i hope u update soon!

Jazz Sign William Howard
July 17th 2019 at 5:15pm CST by Luke Adams
JULY 17: The signing is now official, according to a release from the team.
JULY 15: French forward William Howard, who was on Utah's roster for Summer League play this month, has reached a verbal agreement to sign with the Jazz, league sources tell Tony Jones of The Athletic (Twitter link).
As Jones details, the deal has not yet been made official because there's a small buyout issue to be sorted out. Howard technically remains under contract with Limoges, but Crawford Palmer – the sports director of the French club – confirmed that all involved parties are looking to free up Howard to join the Jazz. As Emiliano Carchia of Sportando relays, Utah is expected to pay a buyout worth 150K Euros.
Howard, 25, averaged 10.6 PPG, 3.1 RPG, and 2.2 APG in 16 EuroCup contests in 2018/19. Although he was part of Utah's Summer League team, he didn't actually play in any games, having been ruled out of the team's final matchup on Saturday due to right groin soreness.
Still, as Jones details, the Jazz like Howard's shooting ability and wanted to add more depth on the wing.
Details of Howard's new contract with the Jazz aren't yet known.

Donovan to Stay; O-Fours to Head to NBA
By FLATigersFan Apr 5, 2007, 5:45pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Donovan to Stay; O-Fours to Head to NBA
I'm a little late to the party.
Billy Donovan is staying at Florida, leaving Kentucky to search out other options they may have.
"It came down to one thing -- I'm happy," Donovan told ESPN.com. "My family is happy. The job was never offered to me. I did talk to Mitch. I appreciate him never calling me during the NCAA tournament. He handled it first class.
"I never wanted this to be a bidding war with Kentucky and Florida, Donovan said. "You can't buy happiness and the school [Florida] has always taken care of me."
"I told Jeremy [Foley, Florida's athletic director] that we're back to starting over," Donovan said. "We'll have a total new team, and for the staff we're excited about the challenge. We'll have a great opportunity. But there will be a real, real major drop-off."
Big, BIG news and definitely a sigh of relief for myself and the rest of the Gator fanbase, I'm sure. Coach Donovan will continue his legacy in Gainesville as the greatest coach ever to lead the Gators, and we could be seeing more and more success in the coming years.
When Coach Donovan said he was only focusing on the tournament, I believed him. When he said that he hadn't discussed the position with Kentucky, I believed him. I'm not sure why this became such a huge story with the media and with the Kentucky fans. Why must we be so obsessed with "reading between the lines" in these situations?
Anyways, great news for the University of Florida. I couldn't be happier with Coach Donovan's decision and with what the future holds in Gainesville.
The other big news of the day came as the big four -- Big Al, Jo, Taurean and Brewer -- will all be leaving and testing the NBA waters.
Donovan said he returned to the team hotel in the early hours Tuesday after the Gators won their second straight national championship, met with his four heralded juniors and was pretty direct.
"What do you guys think about doing it three times?" he asked.
"All of their shoulders slumped down," Donovan said. "They said, 'We're exhausted.'"
So we're at the end of an era in Gainesville, and I have no qualms with any of their decisions to go to the NBA. The four were like a family, and it's been said several times that they were dedicated to each other enough where if one left, they all would.
It's been a fun ride with this group of guys. No Gator fan will ever forget their contributions to the basketball program and the back-to-back national titles in 2006 and 2007.
But let's not think this is the end of a successful era by any means. Coach Donovan is going to re-tool, with not only current young men, but with incoming recruits that could make an impact in a very short time as well.
The Gators will return key reserve guard Walter Hodge, a rising junior point, as well as freshmen Marreese Speights, Dan Werner, Brandon Powell and Joanthan Mitchell. Speights played key minutes against Ohio State's Greg Oden in the national title game Monday in Atlanta. Werner had earned quality time at various points this season.
The Gators signed four players early, including stud shooting guard Nick Calathes out of Winter Park, Fla. The other three -- small forward Chandler Parsons (same school as Calathes), power forward Alex Tyus (Cincinnati) and shooting guard Adam Allen (Milton, Fla.) will also get a long look and likely will have to play, according to Donovan.
The Gators are also in the mix for two of the top unsigned players in the class of 2007 in forward Patrick Patterson of Huntington, W.Va., and point guard Jai Lucas of Houston, the son of former NBA coach John Lucas.
Ok. Now I can't wait for next season. It's going to be a fun ride.
IT'S GREAT TO BE A FLORIDA GATOR!


The holiday season is all about cosying up under a warm blanket, drinking a cup of hot chocolate and revisiting the most romantic Christmas movies ever. I have handpicked my favourite chick flicks and heartwarming tales for those dark winter nights. Here is a list with the 9 Most Romantic Christmas Movies to Watch This Season. Enjoy!
Written and directed by Nancy Meyers this heartfelt romantic comedy sets you up for the festive season. The Holiday (2006) is about two women from the opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean who swap houses for Christmas time. Amanda (Cameron Diaz) and Iris (Kate Winslet) both going through heartbreak decide to escape their lives at least for the holidays. The American Amanda meets Iris's brother (Jude Law), while the British Iris spends considerable time with film composer Miles (Jack Black), befriends a ninety-year-old screenwriter Arthur (Eli Wallach) and learns all about meet-cutes. The main question is that can a house exchange lead to a change of heart and eventually a change in life too?
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) has all the elements that romantic Christmas movies generally offer but in a twisted, dark and funny way. In this parody of film noir tropes, we follow the intertwined adventures of conman Harry Lockhart (Robert Downey Jr.), his childhood sweetheart Harmony Lane (Michelle Monaghan) and hard-boiled detective Perry van Shrike (Val Kilmer). Lockhart accidentally stumbles into a movie audition and gets the part while on the run from the cops. Landing in Hollywood, he comes across Harmony in a Santa Claus outfit, and they get caught up in a murderous conspiracy. Maybe it's not your average Christmas story, but this tangled tale is full of surprises, dark humour and the indispensable romance that is so much needed at this time of the year.
I'm sure that most people watch Love Actually (2003) at least once a year during the Christmas holidays. I am no exception; I tend to catch a screening when I'm at home at my parent's place and watch it together with my family. Love Actually (2003) follows the lives of eight couples dealing with their various issues just before Christmas in London. The intertwined stories explore the nature of love. All characters are desperately trying to connect on some level. The newly elected British prime minister (Hugh Grant) falls for a junior staffer (Martine McCutcheon), others contemplate cheating or try to get better after a break-up, and even kids find their significant others. Love Actually (2003) makes sure that by the end of each storyline everything turns out to be just fine.
Although The Shop Around the Corner (1940) is mostly known as the inspiration behind Nora Ephron's 1998 film You've Got Mail; the original has many merits too. First of all, it is set in my beloved Budapest. In the second place, it is a classic American romantic comedy directed by Ernst Lubitsch. He was famous for his European sophistication and refined representations of complex emotions (the so-called Lubitsch Touch). Thirdly, it is starring Margaret Sullavan and James Stewart as two employees at a general store who can't stand each other but are secretly falling in love as one another's anonymous pen pal. Have I told you that it is hilarious? Well, I'm telling you now.
Serendipity (2001) has one of the greatest "meet cute" scenarios in film history. During some holiday shopping at a crowded store, Jonathan (John Cusack) and Sara (Kate Beckinsale) reach for the same pair of black cashmere gloves. The situation shows the audience that they are destined for each other. While Jonathan falls in love at first sight, Sara believes in destiny. She suggests putting his name and phone number on a $5 bill and hers on the front endpaper of a book. If each finds their way back to the other, they should be together. Does life work that way or is faith only tricking them? Watch the movie to find out!
In Whit Stillman's indie flick you get a behind-the-scenes look into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite, but not the Gossip Girl way. These upper-class Manhattanites are passing through the gala debutante season when a radical student with a simpler background joins them and stirs their life up. If you are into philosophical ramblings on social mobility, playing bridge and discussing Fourier's socialism, then this ensemble drama is for you. But don't worry, there is a love story embedded in all of this nonsense.
I must admit Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) is my go-to Christmas movie. I love it, know the script by heart and completely identify with Bridge who also happens to be the ultimate chick flick heroine. Where should I start? Maybe with the reindeer jumper, the awkward family gatherings or the constant resolutions. Bridget Jones has medicine for everything, even though it's sometimes just vodka and Chaka Khan. Still, it works. Every single time. Watch it once again! This is what I call a work of art.
The Apartment (1960) doesn't seem like a chick flick, at first sight, but Shirley MacLaine's independent character and unforgettable performance kicks the movie into the big leagues. It is a good old-fashioned romantic comedy directed by Billy Wilder. A struggling insurance clerk Bud Baxter (Jack Lemmon) has discovered a quicker way to climb the corporate ladder. He lends out his apartment to some executives who use the place for extramarital affairs. Meanwhile, Baxter lays eyes on Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine) the smart elevator girl at work. Unfortunately, his boss is also interested in Ms Kubelik. Baxter must decide between the woman he loves and the advancement of his career.
Director Todd Haynes knows a thing or two about how women work. Carol (2015) is a finely crafted story about the unlikely romance of a department store clerk Therese (Rooney Mara) and an elegant older woman Carol (Cate Blanchett) in 1950s New York. Carol is trapped in a loveless marriage and soonly develops an intimate relationship with Therese who is an aspiring photographer. It is a beautiful tale about love, longing and loss along with a woman's quest to live authentically in an era of bigotry. This movie will haunt you in the best possible way. So if you're done with the sugarcoated Christmas romances, this is the way to go.
Here is to my new compilation featuring the 9 Most Romantic Christmas Movies to Watch This Season. I hope you have found your favourites and some new ones to add to your watchlist too. Do you have any romantic Christmas movies to add? What are you planning to watch in the holiday season? As always, I love to hear from you, so please leave me lots of lovely comments below.

I have been able to find out general numbers of bicycles Schwinn made by year. But what I have been unable to find out are numbers made for each model of Schwinn bike by year. Example: How many Hornets were made in 1956? Does anyone know of a resource to answer this question? Thanks.
As you can see by the photos on the listed web page (http://www.rohair.com/tandem.html), I have an old tandem bicycle I'm refinishing, and am hoping you can help me properly identify it.
From other photos I've seen while researching, it looks like a Columbia Twosome from the late 50's or early 60's, however, the serial number (#E508482 located on the left rear dropout) does not appear to match anything the Columbia chart.
I'm not familiar with other tandem manufacturers from this time period, and could really use some direction here.
This bike - when we purchased it from a garage sale - appeared to have all the original components. It is a single speed with a Bendix coaster brake, steel rims, and had two messenger style black seats that did not have any manufacturer label.
Original paint was medium blue, and the previous owner hand-painted over that with PINK! Upon removing the layers of paint I could not find any decals or headbadge that would give any indication as to what style bike this is. Based on Sheldon Brown's info, it is a fillet-brazed bike as gold colored brass is apparent at the joints.
Hope you can give me a good (or exact) idea what bike this is. Thanks for your consideration. Any diection would be very much appreciated!
Brookline, MA, please visit our website.
improved site. Below is the link.
permanant mailing list, please contact me by email.
an old 50's style "pink lady" bike.says pink lady on the chain guard and the headbadge. . says "Behrens" on the seat post tube. the seat cleaned up amazingly, the tires are original and in good condition, they say"Dunlops Extra Prima" and "made in germany" the frame says "made in west germany. west germany isnt even a country anymore.
I'm hoping somebody can give me some help. I'm restoring a Shelby Flying Cloud for my wife. It was in really bad shape so I'm repainting it. The frame is almost ready. I'm wondering, what's the best way to get the hanger cups off? This is the first time I've restored a bike instead of just throwing them together for fun. I want to do it right because the bike is so cool and about 65 years old. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I always just reach through the hole with an old screwdriver or a punch and tap them out from the inside.
I made a tool for doing this.
Quite simply, I took an old length of nylon round stock 2" O.D., cut it off at around 12", chucked it in my lathe, and turned it down to 1.5" O.D. up to about 4" of it's length, and faced the end.
Now, I just apply a little penetrating oil, let it soak in a bit (depending on how crusty the frame is), and stick the tool in throughone bearing cup and using a soft faced dead blow hammer, gently tap the bearing cups out.
Works fairly well without marring or damaging parts.
I've made one for the headset bearing cups as well.

swings and roundabouts
Posted byJohnny Cullen	 April 3, 2010
Hello, you sexy bastards.
I haven't written a blog in a fair while, so I may as well write something while the news is lacking on Easter weekend.
I want to cover a lot of subjects in this post, but my main one has had me thinking since last week: what were the best ten albums of the last decade? I want to list them, but I will point out that up until the last two years of the decade, I was probably very much mainstream: only getting into bigger and newer music, not getting into stuff like Pavement, Imogen Heap and all that until late 2008.
Radiohead – Kid A
I first listened to Kid A back in December 2006 after a release in October 2000, where back then, it was quite received as well as it is now.
Right from the bat, I loved it, and to this day, it s my favourite album ever. Nothing has ever come close.
Favourite tracks: Kid A, The National Anthem, In Limbo
Daft Punk – Discovery
I was into Daft Punk before Discovery with Homework, but only because my brother wouldn't stop playing it every time he got a chance.
With Discovery, I'm quite as glad it wasn't forced upon me, unlike Homework. It really is such a classic album for its genre and for its time.
Favourite tracks: Digital Love, Veridis Quo, Too Long
Radiohead – In Rainbows
Noticeably, Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief before it didn't do the band much success as Kid A did after its release. They were both good, but nothing on the level of The Bends, OK Computer or Kid A.
So imagine our surprise when they announced it would be upon us within ten days of a Dead Air Space post from Jonny going live. And it realy was a fantastic album, although I am not afraid to admit there was one big disappointment in that album, which was Videotape. That was sounding amazing before the release of the album, but it was just okay on the album.
Much better song live in its In Rainbows form, anyways.
Favourite Tracks: Bodysnatchers, Arpeggi, All I Need
Sigur Rós – Agætis Byrjún
Yes, I realize this was released in Iceland in 1999, but it did only reach the UK in 2000, so I'm counting it.
Truth be told, as much as Takk got me into Sigur Rós (as below), it was Agætis Byrjún that has since become my favourite album from them. There really is such fantastic stuff on here, which is why it is my favourite album from them, especially a ten minute epic like Viorar. Listen to that – mouth open. It is beautiful.
If you never gotten it beforehand, best advice would be to wait for the tenth anniversary edition due out in the summer.
Favourite Tracks: Starlafur, ny Batteri, Viorar Vel Til Loftarasa
Sigur Rós – Takk…
Okay, I'll come clean: it was Hóppipólla and them Planet Earth ads that got me into Sigur Rós. That said, I think, as good as it is as a song, Hóppipólla is such overrated bollocks.
There are much better songs on that album then that. There is some fantastic stuff, and I'm really glad I got it. Nothing on AB, though.
Favourite Tracks: Glósóli, Sæglopur, Heysátan
The Killers – Hot Fuss
While there are better albums this decade, obviously, this was the one that really interested in music at the age of 14 when I picked it up a year after it released. When everybody I knew was listening to shit HipHop and dance music, I was listening to this along with Feeder's latest at the time.
I mainly got it for All These Things That I've Done: there was probably no bigger of an influential lyric this decade then "I've Got Soul, But I'm Not a Soldier".
Favourite Tracks: Jenny Was a Friend of Mine, All These Things That I've Done, Midnight Show
Muse – Absolution
Like Sigur Rós, I got into Muse with an album released after their best work had been and gone. But as much as Black Holes was decent (come on, say what you like about it, Cydonia was epic), Absolution was fantastic. And their best to date: BH&R and certainly not The Resistance has touched it thus far.
Favourite Tracks: Apocalypse Please, Time is Running Out, Thoughts of a Dying Atheist
Radiohead – Hail to the Thief
Despite my previous comments on HTTT above, I still rate it very highly personally, even more so than The Bends. Yes, The Bends is awesome, but HTTT has a lot more of stuff that I liked in it more than that.
Especially Where I End and You Begin. And that will never be beaten.
Favourite Tracks: Sail to the Moon, Where I End and You Begin, There, There
Sigur Rós – Hvarf-Heim/Heima
Okay, this maybe cheating just a little bit, considering its mostly unheard of material and newly worked versions of stuff we had heard before, but really, it's the DVD of Heima that really takes it home. If you're a Sigur Rós fan, you need to watch Heima and get Hvarf/Heima together.
Favourite Tracks: Hiljomalind, i Gáer, Samskeyti
Kasabian – self-titled
If Hot Fuss properly got me into music, it was Kasabian that pushed it home. While there is split-opinion over Empire (some like it, some don't), all three of their albums in my opinion have been in the most part consistent. But its the first album that does the trick, just for the first half alone.
Favourite Tracks: Club Foot, LSF, Cutt Off
So that's pretty much it. I did say it would vary on the side of mainstream somewhat, but I have started getting a little varying in my picks
And yes, it is mostly dominated by Sigur Rós, but they've probably had a bigger effect on me in musical terms then even Radiohead. And this is coming from someone who's seen Radiohead, Muse and Kasabian live, but never seen Sigur Rós live (something I will rectify).
Still, that's pretty much the lot.
Kick-Ass is Kick-Ass
I went and saw Kick Ass earlier this week. Expectations were high, but within the first 2 minutes, expectations: out the window. This would have probably been a good movie without her, but let's be honest, and probably everyone who's seen it will agree too: this movie was made by Hit-Girl.
Chloe Moritz's character simply astonished me, not just for the fact she can probably shoot 20 or so gangsters in a tight and crowded corridor in so many various ways, but also mostly because of the character within her character.
Please Jesus, if there ain't going to be a sequel – which, after this, there must be, going by the ending – please have a Hit-Girl spin-off.
Well, that's it. Easter weekend doesn't really excite much, but it should be alright this time: Doctor Whooooooooooooooooooo!
Later, kids.

Home / SIDEMEN / KEYBOARDS / Billy Powell 1/2009
Posted on January 25, 2016 July 14, 2018 by Johan Ramakers — Leave a comment
Billy Powell 1/2009
January 28, 2009 – William Norris "Billy" Powell was born on June 3rd 1952 in Corpus Christi, Texas. Powell grew up in a military family and spent several of his childhood years in Italy, where his father was stationed with the U.S. Navy. After his father died of cancer in 1960, the Powells returned to the United States to settle in Jacksonville, Florida. In elementary school, Powell met Leon Wilkeson, who would become a lifelong friend and the bassist for Lynyrd Skynyrd. Powell took an interest in piano and he began taking piano lessons from a local teacher named Madalyn Brown, who claimed that Billy did not need a teacher as he was a natural and picked things up well on his own.
After a short stint in a Community College where he majored in Music Theory, he found work as a roadie for Lynyrd Skynyrd, who opened at the time for Mountain, and in '72 he became a full band member as keyboardist.
Here is the story: In 1972, Skynyrd played a show at the Bolles School prom. During a break, Powell sat down at a piano and launched into his piano-based version of Free Bird. Ronnie Van Zant, Lynyrd Skynyrd's lead vocalist, astonished at his roadie's hitherto secret ability, said 'You mean to tell me, you've been playing the piano like that and you've been workin' for us for a year….'. Billy replied, "Well, you know, I've been classically trained most of my life.' He was then told Skynyrd were looking for a keyboardist, and was offered that position. Things went from good to great, as life quickly became a dream come true for Powell and his bandmates, as they set about making album rock history.
In 1977, the dream however turned into a nightmare. A plane carrying the band members on a tour crashed into a patch of Mississippi swamp land. It was only three days after the release of the Street Survivors album, that Skynyrd's chartered plane crashed into a forest near McComb, Mississippi. The crash took the lives of singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines, his sister and backing vocalist Cassie Gaines, assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick, and both pilots. The remainder of the band suffered mild to severe injuries. Powell suffered severe facial lacerations, almost completely losing his nose, but was otherwise relatively uninjured. He was the first to be released from the hospital, and the only member able to attend the funerals of his fallen band-mates.
As the band disbanded ( there was no heart left in Lynyrd Skynyrd) after the plane crash and guitarists Collins and Rossington formed the Rossington-Collins Band in the early 1980s and the Lynyrd Skynyrd reunion in 1987, Billy Powell first formed his own band ALIAS in 1979, then joined Rossington-Collins and later the Allen Collins Band, until in 1985 he joined a Christian rock band named Vision, where his keyboard playing was spotlighted in their concerts. During their concerts, Powell spoke about his new-found Christianity; messages that were also delivered via 2 bonus tracks (Leon Wilkeson and Billy Powell) included on the album Mountain in The Sky.
In 1987 he played again on the Lynyrd Skynyrd 1987 tribute tour, when Ronnie Van Zant's youngest brother Johnny took the frontman's position and he remained with the band until his death. In 2007, he played piano on Kid Rock's summer anthem All Summer Long.
He died from a suspected heart attack on January 28, 2009 at the age of 56. Rescue crews found him unconscious with the phone still in his hand, they performed CPR, but Billy was pronounced dead at 1:52 a.m.. He had a history of heart problems, and the day before his death he had missed an appointment with his doctor for a cardiac evaluation.

After wake ups at 7:30 and oatmeal for breakfast, the crew got several hours to work on our oceanography projects. Students were checking hypotheses, measuring trawling liter, counting lures, taking water samples, and collecting algae off of the hull. Microscopes, refractometers, fishing line, and CTDs were scattered all over the deck, and for a while Argo was a fully functioning marine lab. Lunch was grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup, a favorite meal for many of the crew. Around one o'clock, we were told that our stay in Cape Verde would be one day shorter, and that we would be setting off the next morning for the biggest test of our trip; the Atlantic crossing. Everyone grabbed computers, postcards, and all the local currency they had, and we set off in the dinghies for shore. With the afternoon to prepare ourselves for the crossing, many spent the first hour finding internet to send out last minute emails and check Facebook once more. For some aboard, two weeks without Facebook sounds like social suicide. After internet, most of us found our way to the grocery store to spend every last bit off local money on cookies, wafers, cereal, and other snacks to stave off the hunger that hits on the 3-6 am watch. Fortunately, most things in Cape Verde are pretty cheap, so most were able to buy enough to last the 14 days. Dinner was a good tuna-noodle casserole, and was followed by a nighttime MTE class on electronic navigation aids, good stuff to know about before crossing an ocean. After class, many 40/40d their bunks and enjoyed the last night of stable flooring. Everyone is excited for 14 days at sea, and is looking forward to the sighting of St. Lucia, 2100 nautical miles west of us.

Isi Liebler: President Obama and Israel: Looming Confrontations
by Isi Leibler, September 29, 2013
One might have hoped that Obama's calamitous mishandling of recent Middle East crises, climaxing with his disastrous response to the Syrian use of chemical weapons, would have taught him a few lessons on regional politics.
Regrettably, his address to the United Nations General Assembly last week proved otherwise. By reverting to his original Cairo speech - insisting that resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian peace "would have a profound and positive impact on the entire Middle East and North Africa", Obama has caused many Israelis not merely to question his competence but also his real intentions towards Israel.
The notion that the stability of the entire Middle East region hinges on the resolution of the Israeli –Palestinian conflict, is utterly absurd. Our conflict has no bearing on the complex and far more problematic conflicts and pressure points surrounding us: the struggle between Sunnis and Shiites, the resurgence of Al Qaeda, the rise of the Moslem Brotherhood, the persecution and murder of Christians throughout the Moslem world, the threat of a nuclear Iran, the chaos in Libya and Yemen, the upheavals in Egypt, the global Islamic terror attacks extending from New York to Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Mali and most recently Kenya, and above all, the carnage in Syria. To place responsibility for regional stability on Israel in the midst of this chaos is a terrible misreading of reality.
To compound matters, President Obama linked the Iranian nuclear threat and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, treating them with equal importance - a clear signal that the US expects Israel to make major concessions to the Palestinians in return for "undertakings" to prevent the Iranians from obtaining a nuclear bomb.
Prime Minister Netanyahu must have been bitterly disappointed. He has bent over backwards in efforts to please Obama. At Obama's urging he extended a humiliating apology to Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan for the killing of the Turkish terrorists seeking to violently breach Israel's maritime arms blockade against Gaza. Yet, when Erdogan subsequently refused to fulfill his undertakings, Obama failed to even reprimand him.
Netanyahu outraged most Israelis by capitulating to extreme US pressure by releasing Palestinian terrorists, many of whom were mass murderers.
He also encouraged AIPAC to support the President in Congress on the Syrian issue – an act which backfired after Obama equivocated, and then withdrew his request for Congressional support.
Yet Obama disregarded all Netanyahu's efforts and once again left him in the cold. Ignoring the asymmetry of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, he complimented both parties for "having demonstrated a willingness to take significant political risks" – explaining that Israel had released large numbers of hard-core terrorists (an act which no US government would conceivably contemplate) and bracketing this with the reciprocal Palestinian "concession" – to engage in negotiations with the Israelis! Does he really believe that Israel releasing mass murderers and the Palestinians consenting to engage in negotiations amount to equivalent political risks?
When Obama glibly proclaimed that "friends of Israel, including the United States, must recognize that Israel's security as a Jewish and democratic state depends upon the realization of a Palestinian state", he ignored the dangers Israel would face, if as is almost certain, Palestine became a failed rogue state and served as a launching pad for terrorists and states like Iran committed to its destruction. Nor did Obama even mention the visceral hatred and incitement to violence which continues to be promoted at all levels of PA society, making genuine peace inconceivable.
Obama's desperate renewed "appeal" to the Iranians, pleading with them to engage in dialogue and foolishly reiterating that he did not consider regime change as an objective was also profoundly disappointing..
The new Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, in stark contrast to his deranged predecessor, Ahmadinejad, has launched an extraordinary charm offensive. Cynically oozing goodwill, he referred to the employment of nuclear weapons as a crime against humanity and sought to divert attention from the Iranian nuclear threat by demanding that Israel join the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty with other "enlightened" states like Iraq, Syria and Libya. With a forked tongue, he conveyed reassuring messages, encouraging protracted negotiations.
It should be recalled that in 2005, whilst serving as national security adviser and head nuclear negotiator, Rouhani brazenly lied concerning Iran's genuine nuclear intentions. And just prior to departing for New York, he was photographed speaking at a military parade in front of a sign that read "Israel must cease to exist".
Nor despite all his sweet talk, has Rouhani offered a single concession. Clearly, he is eager to talk and negotiate. But unless the Ayatollah decides otherwise, the centrifuges will continue spinning until Iran achieves its nuclear objective.
Yet, sensitive to his master Ayatollah Khomeini or a backlash from his hardline opponents in Iran, Rouhani humiliatingly spurned a pathetic US effort to orchestrate an "impromptu" handshake at the UN, stating that it would be premature. That did not deter Obama from telephoning him as he was about to leave for Iran, congratulating him on his election and praising his "constructive statements" on the nuclear issue.
The US and Europe are desperate for a face-saving situation to avoid confrontation with the Iranians. They ignore the ultimate result of the buildup of underground nuclear facilities and ballistic missiles.
Furthermore, the bitter reality is that after Obama's inept zigzagging in relation to Syria, his threat that the US is "determined to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear bomb" and will if necessary "use all elements of our power, including military force", ring hollow and is unlikely to be taken seriously by the Iranians - or anyone else.
It must be deeply frustrating for Netanyahu to see the rogue state of Iran courted by the US and Europe, whilst Israel, a democracy and genuine ally of the US is treated so shabbily. The chilling parallels with the betrayal of Czechoslovakia and Chamberlain's policies of appeasement and "peace in our time" in the late 1930s will prey on our minds in the months to come.
Netanyahu will seek to pierce through Rouhani's sweet talk at the UN. . He will raise skepticism about Rouhani' tactics and urge the world to prevent the Iranians from emulating the North Koreans, who achieved their nuclear objectives by similar means. He will also demand full transparency and verification, should any agreement be reached with Iran. For these expressions of objective reality and bare security necessities, he will undoubtedly be depicted as a spoiler by naive and euphoric US and global leaders seeking justification for their inaction against Iran.
He will also resist pressures from the Obama administration for additional fundamental unilateral concessions to the Palestinians. But unlike his political opponents on the right accusing him of cowardice, Netanyahu - as all Israeli leaders since the time of Ben Gurion - realizes that Israel is dependent on a superpower and that today the support of the US both politically and militarily is crucial. Netanyahu also recognizes that for all his failings, Obama with the strong encouragement of Congress continues to provide Israel with the military necessities that no other nation could provide.
Israel has a vested interest in a strong America employing its superpower status to maintain global stability. We are not obliged to behave as a vassal state. But we must act prudently. Whilst resisting pressures to concede on matters impacting on our security, we must demonstrate our appreciation of American support and be willing to make concessions on issues which Americans perceive as impacting on their interests.
The next 9 months will be challenging, especially if President Obama retains his fixation that he can resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict by May 2014. There is no basis for any realistic settlement beyond an interim arrangement. Even aside from Hamas and the extraordinary turbulence in the region, it is inconceivable that an agreement could be achieved concerning issues such as the Arab refugee right of return. If Abbas himself was willing to compromise (and he is not), he would be assassinated within a matter of days.
This is a time for our leaders, including President Peres as well as the Likud hawks, to stand united. Repeated statements refuting the positions adopted by the Prime Minister, calling for annexation of territories or opposing a two state solution, undermine our global position. Such behavior enables the Palestinians to distort reality and shift the blame on Israel for the inevitable breakdown which will result from their intransigency and refusal to genuinely coexist with us.
It is unconscionable that even during this turbulent period with the upheavals in Syria and Egypt, the Obama administration blinds itself to the real barriers to peace and exploits the Iranian nuclear threat as a vehicle to pressure Israel to maintain this Alice in Wonderland negotiation charade. By demanding that we make further unilateral territorial concessions in the absence of ironclad security (which is currently impossible) the US is pressuring us to gamble with our lives and future.

The uMfolozi Local Municipality council consists of thirty-five members elected by mixed-member proportional representation. Eighteen councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting in eighteen wards, while the remaining seventeen are chosen from party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received.

The municipality was enlarged at the time of the South African municipal election, 2016 when part of the disbanded Ntambanana Local Municipality was merged into it.

In the election of 3 August 2016 the African National Congress (ANC) won a narrow majority of seventeen seats on the council.

This little book from Joe Hashman is a gem. It's a diary of bits and pieces of gardening information, tips, observations, and recipes week by week during the year. Interestingly Joe Hashman starts his year in February, perhaps because January doesn't really do very much. It's even too cold to weed and tidy and even February he does a lot of "tidying". It's a good book to dip into and wonder if I should be digging the bed yet or what seeds to sow. Not a book to read from start to finish in one go.

A new company faces many challenges of different sorts. Some of them include the communications, the legal documentation and most importantly the designing of the invoices that the company will use for a long time.
These invoices are an important part of the company's transactions and play a vital role as their representative when presented to the client. It does not matter whether the business is about construction, consultancy or even freelancing invoices are an important part. These invoices play a part as bills as well.
We all know what an invoice is and how important it is for an entity. Without the use of invoices, the company cannot get paid by the client. Moreover, these invoices can be used as an evidence document about the services that have been provided by the company and the payment they have got from the client against it.
The best way to keep this process hassle free and efficient is to use a template for a new company invoice. This enables the newly originated company to direct their efforts and time to more important matters.
The templates provide all the necessary details on a piece of paper and all they must do is to modify the theme and add in the logo of the entity to use it in future. The company can customize the format, adjust the rates of taxes on which they are calculated and make other suitable changes according to the terms and conditions.
Templates are usually fully customizable and free to use. Furthermore, it is certain that they are professionally designed under the supervision of professionals and are according to the international or industrial standards.
A template also offers the user to do necessary modifications and is usually simple, leaves blanks to be filled and is ready for invoicing.
This makes a new company invoice template so common and appreciated by all.
A typical new company invoice is made in the same way as other invoices are drafted, it must have the name and logo of the company along with other important details.

Owatonna's Greatest HitsOwatonna's Greatest Hits
Owatonna Goes Toe-to-Toe with Northfield
Todd Walkingstick
Owatonna's boys' soccer club kept it close most of the way against Big Nine leading Northfield Thursday, but lost a 3-0 decision. The Raiders (8-0) have seven shutouts this season and have averaged about eight goals per match. In the girls' game, the Raiders rallied for two goals in the second half for a 3-3 draw.
OHS boys' coach Bob Waypa said, "I thought for most of the game we played really well. We knew going in they were as good as it gets in AA soccer...We knew defensively we had to 'be on,' offensively I thought we would probably get some chances. In the game, defensively, I thought we did a great job."
"That first goal...sometimes players make plays and that's what this kid did. We defended it the right way. He just went up higher, got a head on it." Northfield's Pascal Cogan notched his 13th goal of the season with that opening marker in the 15th minute of the first half.
About 14 minutes into the second half, Grant Roney got a good look and didn't miss, while getting his 13th goal. The Raiders closed the scoring with just under 12 minutes remaining for the 3-0 final. Northfield has four players with double-digit goal totals this season. OHS has 12 total goals for the season. Still, Waypa is hopeful that the Huskies can get another opportunity to play Northfield in the playoffs.
The OHS girls jumped out quickly versus Northfield and led 3-1 at the half. However a long injury delay after a Raider player took a ball to the face and hit her head on the ground inspired her teammates and Northfield rallied back to tie the game at 3-3.
Huskies coach Nate Gendron says overtime is not being played during the regular season this year due to COVID concerns, in order to keep the games as short as possible.
Winona is next up for the Huskies on Tuesday, September 29. The girls play at Paul Giel Field in Winona, which will be their first action on a turf field this season. The match will be heard on air. Which station is yet to be determined, based on the Minnesota Twins' playoff schedule.
The Owatonna boys will host the Winhawks, who returned to sports earlier this week after being sidelined by coronavirus numbers in their county.

News Briefs for March 19, 2015
•Maison Alex Gambal, the small Burgundy négociant, has acquired 19 acres of vineyards in the Côte d'Or for an undisclosed price. The Beaune-based winery, founded by American Alex Gambal, now controls 30 acres of vineyards, which account for 80% of its 6,000-case production. Wine Spectator has the full story.
•Beam Suntory's Hornitos Tequila brand has extended its lineup with the launch of Hornitos Spiced Honey. A blend of natural honey, vanilla and spice flavors and 100% agave Tequila, Hornitos Spiced Honey is currently available in 750-ml. and 1-liter formats, priced at around $19.99 a 750-ml. The 70-proof expression joins Hornitos' existing Plata, Reposado, Añejo, Black Barrel and Lime Shot entries.
•Anheuser-Busch InBev will increase its advertising support behind Michelob Ultra beginning next month while rolling out a new packaging design, AdAge reports. Media spending for the brand will reportedly reach its highest levels in Michelob Ultra's 13-year history. It's part of a push to accelerate growth by positioning Ultra to reach a broader range of consumers. The athletic-themed marketing efforts will feature a more easy-going message and social tone. The brand recently transitioned from Havas' Palm & Havas agency to Interpublic's FCB in Chicago. The new packaging aims for a more sophisticated look. According to Impact Databank, Michelob Ultra grew 7.6% in the U.S. last year to 53.7 million (2.25-gallon) cases.
•Heineken has unveiled a new patented on-premise draught system called BrewLock that includes a recyclable 20-liter PET keg containing a bladder in which the beer resides. In contrast to traditional kegs that rely on a blend of carbon dioxide and nitrogen, BrewLock uses "a small, customized air compressor that exerts pressure in the area between the shell and the bladder, pushing the beer through the draught lines untouched, which guarantees a perfectly carbonated beer every time," Heineken says. The brewer adds that the BrewLock kegs are slightly lighter than traditional steel kegs, are horizontally stackable and have driven trial its brands in test accounts. The system is rolling out to select markets with both Heineken lager and Newcastle Brown Ale available in the format.
•Brown-Forman has named company veteran Marshall Farrer as managing director, global travel retail. Farrer joined Brown-Forman in 1988, and has served in a wide variety of roles, including most recently vice president, global brand director for Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey. Farrer replaces Jim Perry, who will now lead B-F's business across a swath of emerging markets as senior vice president. Perry's territory will now include India, the Middle East, Africa, Central America, South America and the Caribbean. The changes are effective May 1.

PBS Covers Sea Ice Minimum
Very informative interview here with Walt Meier of the National Snow and Ice Data Center.
No false balance in this account. Just a scientist telling us what we, as a species, know about the astonishing pace of change on our home planet.
30 Responses to "PBS Covers Sea Ice Minimum"
Lee Pillow Says:
Could you talk about the Antarctic reports of record ice growth, when you get a chance? I know a low ice year in the north often corresponds to highs in the south, but I don't quite understand how all that works.
I'd like to be prepared for the inevitable denier hordes keying on the report.
In fact, no balance at all:
There's no mention at all of the record high Antarctic sea ice extent.
There's no mention of the big August storm that broke up the Arctic ice.
There's no mention of the fact that the Antarctic is a better climate indicator than the Arctic, because Antarctic sea ice is anchored to a continent, rather than blown around by the vagaries of the wind.
There's no mention of the fact that, as an albedo-based feedback mechanism, Antarctic ice is more important than Arctic ice, because Antarctic ice is at less extreme latitudes.
They are so predictable. I typed all of the above before playing the video. The usual spin was all there, just as I expected.
Plus, after listening to it, there're more:
It includes the lie that the satellite record doesn't start until 1979 (ignoring 4.5 years of data from Nimbus 5).
It even discusses albedo-based feedback (though without using the term), but nevertheless doesn't mention the fact that the as an albedo-based feedback mechanism, Antarctic ice is more important than Arctic ice.
In fact, in the entire 5-3/4 minute segment, it never mentions the Antarctic at all!
In other words, it's typical for Propaganda B.S. TV.
And, as icing on the cake, there's also an annoying delay of the audio, compared to the video.
ahaveland Says:
Look, a sick Squirrel!
Antarctic sea ice is at a record high because it's vacating the continent faster than disenchanted sponsors from a sinking Heartland billboard campaign.
Tamino knocks this meme on the head nicely:

If that's so, then where's all the water going? Sea level is rising no faster now than it was 3/4 century ago, despite the contribution of increased groundwater extraction.
Roger Lambert Says:
Right. Except for all the studies that show that sea level has been rising steadily since 1880 through present day, and that there has been a decided acceleration of sea level rise since 1980. Except for that, you are right.
No, sorry that would be my mistake, As usual, you are wrong.
Where is all that water going, daveburton?
I'm guessing it is going to the same place you think millions of h-bomb heat content increases due to the greenhouse effect go every single day – to Cloud Cuckoo Land?
Roger, sea level has been rising, in most places, but at a glacially slow rate, and many studies confirm that there has been no measurable acceleration of sea level rise in the last 3/4 century.
Here in North Carolina, our best tide gauge is at Wilmington, and over its 76 year history it's measured an average of1.98 mm/year sea level rise, which is a little higher than most places in the world, because the land is sinking slightly (Peltier VM2 0.88 mm/yr, VM3 0.04 mm/yr). But over the past 20 years, sea level at Wilmington hasn't increased at all.
Not all tide gauges are showing deceleration, but the best studies of averaged tide gauge data show a slight decelerating trend in the rate of sea-level rise.
Typo correction:
s/ VM3 / VM4 /
Extent is NOT mass. The Antartic has been losing ice at a dramatic rate, not gaining ice as you want us to believe, daveburton. And the loss of ice mass is accelerating.
If that's so, then where's all the water going, Roger? Sea level is rising no faster now than it was 3/4 century ago, despite the contribution of increased groundwater extraction.
That simple datum should, by itself, be sufficient to alert you to the fact that the alarmists who thought Antarctica was losing ice mass at a dramatic rate were wrong. But now we have confirmation, from the ICEsat data, which shows that the Antarctic ice sheets are gaining mass, not losing it.
Now, that was not only news, it was also a test: when you read that, did you smile, or frown? If you smiled at the good news, then you care more about the good of mankind than about being right, but if you frowned it means your ego is more important to you than the future of the planet and the people who inhabit it.
So which was it?
The Antarctic ice – combined land and sea ice is decreasing by 100 gigatons per year, and the loss is accelerating. You and your sources are full of it, daveburton.
Antarctic sea ice extent is increasing, but this is not mass. More ice is being pushed out to sea because Antarctic land ice (glaciers) are moving more rapidly to the sea. Despite the increased extent of sea ice, the temperature of the sea around the sea ice is rising.
If you wondered (I know you don't, but anyone with any curiosity would) where most of the heat from the greenhouse effect was actually going (that's half a billion atomic bomb's worth of added heat every year), it's going into ocean water, and we are starting to see the effects now in the Antarctic sea – that's why the temperature of the ocean water there is going up.
Roger says, "You and your sources are full of it, daveburton."
"My sources" = NASA, and the ICEsat data. If you'd bothered to click the ICEsat data link that I gave you, you'd have read that ICEsat's measurements indicate that the Antarctic ice sheets are gaining mass, not losing it. This is the opening slide:

Your video of a presentation by a guy who has not published these results in a peer-reviewed paper :
1) never addresses the *net mass* of all the ice in the arctic. He never talks about it!
2) He uses altimetry, which doesn't directly address mass
3 Is contradicted by this published report from a peer-reviewed journal which uses GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) – a gravimetric technique which DOES measure mass…. and which confirms the conclusion that:
a) In Antarctica the mass loss increased from 104 Gt/yr in 2002–2006 to 246 Gt/yr in 2006–2009, i.e., an acceleration of −26 ± 14 Gt/yr2 in 2002–2009.
And here is NASA itself confirming the net ice loss at nearly 200 Gt/yr: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2008-010
And here is Chen using both GRACE and altimetry, showing net ice mass loss in Antarctica: http://www.nature.com/ngeo/journal/v2/n12/full/ngeo694.html
Land ice loss exceeds small gain in sea ice mass – Chen confirms *net* ice loss
And Rignot, et al 2011 also confirms net ice mass loss in Antarctic:
"When we use the extended time period 1992-2009, the significance of the trend improves considerably. The MBM record indicates an acceleration in mass loss of 21.9 ± 1 Gt/yr^2 for Greenland and 14.5 ± 2 Gt/yr^2 for Antarctica… "
Rignot, E., et al. (2011): Acceleration of the contribution of the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets to sea level rise. Geophysical Research Letters, in press, doi:10.1029/2011GL046583.
sorry, first refewrence on GRACE data is:
Velicogna, I. (2009): Increasing rates of ice mass loss from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets revealed by GRACE. Geophysical Research Letters, 36, L19503, doi:10.1029/2009GL040222.
Roger says, "And here is NASA itself confirming the net ice loss at nearly 200 Gt/yr: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2008-010
Roger, that's from 2008. NASA's most recent information, from its best satellite data, which is presented in that new 2012 video, is that Antarctica is gaining ice mass.
Now, it is certainly possible that when we get data from ICEsat-2 in a few years, it might show the opposite. After all, Most Published Research Findings Are False. But, for now, the latest and best data NASA has indicates that Antarctica is gaining ice mass, not losing it.
Hey, that's good news! So why aren't you happy?

Daveburton: "This is the opening slide:
Mass Balance of the Antarctic Ice Sheet 1992-2008 from ERS and ICESAT: Gains exceed losses by Jay Zwally, NASA Goddard, USA"
Which he talks about his paper
Zwally, H. Jay and Mario B. Giovinetto, 2011, "Overview and Assessment of Antarctic Ice-Sheet Mass Balance Estimates: 1992-2009", Surveys in Geophysics, Volume 32, Numbers 4-5, pp 351-376, DOI 10.1007/s10712-011-9123-5. http://icesat4.gsfc.nasa.gov/cryo_data/publications/Zwally-Giovinetto_SurveysInGeophysics_2011-1.pdf
….Our preferred estimate for 1992-2001 is -47 Gt/year for West Antarctica, +16 Gt/year for East Antarctica, and -31 Gt/year overall (+0.1 mm/year SLE), not including part of the Antarctic Peninsula (1.07% of the AIS area).
At the Ice-Sheet Mass Balance and Sea Level (ISMASS) Workshop July 2012
In the clip you posted he is talking about his paper above; error ranges; ice lose; and Ice flows
From Mass Gains of the Antarctic Ice Sheet Exceed Losses http://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20120013495
During 2003 to 2008, the mass gain of the Antarctic ice sheet from snow accumulation exceeded the mass loss from ice discharge by 49 Gt/yr (2.5% of input), as derived from ICESat laser measurements of elevation change. The net gain (86 Gt/yr) over the West Antarctic (WA) and East Antarctic ice sheets (WA and EA) is essentially unchanged from revised results for 1992 to 2001 from ERS radar altimetry. Imbalances in individual drainage systems (DS) are large (-68% to +103% of input), as are temporal changes (-39% to +44%). The recent 90 Gt/yr loss from three DS (Pine Island, Thwaites-Smith, and Marie-Bryd Coast) of WA exceeds the earlier 61 Gt/yr loss, consistent with reports of accelerating ice flow and dynamic thinning. Similarly, the recent 24 Gt/yr loss from three DS in the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) is consistent with glacier accelerations following breakup of the Larsen B and other ice shelves. In contrast, net increases in the five other DS of WA and AP and three of the 16 DS in East Antarctica (EA) exceed the increased losses. Alternate interpretations of the mass changes driven by accumulation variations are given using results from atmospheric-model re-analysis and a parameterization based on 5% change in accumulation per degree of observed surface temperature change. A slow increase in snowfall with climate waRMing, consistent with model predictions, may be offsetting increased dynamic losses.
In short from all the articles about Antarctic ice sheet that I have read is this. The Antarctic(a) is warming and is expecting to warm more. This will cause both increases in both snow fall (ice gain) and Ice melt (loss). The item to watch is the flow speeds rate (rate of change) which is a better indicator of the overall health of Antarctica IMO. I can see it changing back and forth on mass gain and loss. You keep claiming that we are not warming the planet but the sources you claim contradict you. Are you saying Jay is claiming that Antarctica is not warming and is expected to warm?
Your logic is this! It is winter in July in New Zealand and it is winter in January in New York therefore; this disproves summers.

Please don't make up things I've never said and attribute them to me.
Anthropogenic climate change passenger wrote, "Are you saying Jay is claiming that Antarctica is not warming and is expected to warm?"
Of course not. Jay Zwally is a well-known warmist, who once predicted that the Arctic "could be nearly ice-free" by now. (Oops!)
I'm saying that he said what he said, which was on his opening/title slides:
jasonpettitt Says:
"There's no mention at all of the record high Antarctic sea ice extent"
That's because all the Antarctic squirrels in the world won't have any affect on albedo (http://youtu.be/CEAcSIaDQQ0). None at all. Zilch. Nadda. Nothing. It's been winter/night time in Antarctic
A storm! In the Arctic Ocean!! Forsooth!!! Storms happen in the Arctic Ocean. You'd be amazed. If you think weather is throwing one year's results (there was nothing special about 2012) then stick to the trend.
"There's no mention of the fact that the Antarctic is a better climate indicator than the Arctic."
Because the actual proper scientists who livebreathsleep Antarctic say that the Antarctic is a poor indicator of global climate due to a great big hole in the Ozone Layer directly above it – resulting in local conditions quite separate to what is happening globally (http://planetearth.nerc.ac.uk/news/story.aspx?id=612).
"There's no mention of the fact that, as an albedo-based feedback mechanism, Antarctic ice is more important than Arctic ice"
We've done this already. It's winter – there's no sun to albedo.
"It includes the lie that the satellite record doesn't start until 1979"
They're out to get you Dave. 1979 marks the start of the continuous dataset from the passive microwave record. A consistent data set that is useful for year to year climate comparisons.
Don't forget that we can go back much (http://tamino.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/kinnard_2011_sea_ice.jpg?w=500), much (http://bprc.osu.edu/geo/publications/polyak_etal_seaice_QSR_10.pdf) further than 1979.
Again!?! It's winter Dave. Round the clock night time for month after month. Literally no sun and no Albedo effect.
So what are the chances we'll get a daveburton comment saying "sorry guys, I got it all wrong. My bad…"
jasonpettitt wrote, "all the Antarctic squirrels in the world won't have any affect on albedo… None at all. Zilch. Nadda. Nothing. It's been winter/night time in Antarctic"
That's completely wrong, Jason. The equinox was 9/22/2012. In both hemispheres the minimum and maximum sea ice extents are centered on the equinoxes. W/r/t albedo feedback, the minimum and maximum ice extents are equally important.
However, the Antarctic (Southern Ocean) sea ice extents are more important than the Arctic sea ice extents, because sea ice in the Southern Ocean is at less extreme latitudes, so it gets sunlight at less acute angles.
The CHANGE in summer minimum IS defined by (and is an indicator of) changes in the summer melt SEASON when albedo affects the radiation budget. The CHANGE in winter maximum IS NOT.
It's not that hard Dave.
I almost can't be bothered to point out that It hardly matters that, unlike the Arctic Summer Minimum, changes in the winter maximum in the Antarctic are ALSO so tiny and insignificant that they have next to no effect the radiation budget.
What I am arguing is the following:
CHANGES in Antarctic Ice Extent are best explained by examining local conditions. The CHANGES at the Arctic are best explained as a response to Global Warming.
The CHANGE in both Extent and Sea Ice Albedo Forcing at the Antarctic is tiny. At the Arctic it is substantial.
The two poles are, literally and figuratively poles apart. One does not 'balance' the other.
It's a sorry day when any human being lowers themselves so far as to try and publicly argue that all records are quantitatively and qualitatively equivalent because of the appearance of the word 'record'.
For anyone interested, a back of the envelope calculation by Tamino (http://tamino.wordpress.com/2012/10/01/sea-ice-insolation/) shows us that, contrary to Dave Burton's claims…
"the Antarctic (Southern Ocean) sea ice extents are more important than the Arctic sea ice extents, because sea ice in the Southern Ocean is at less extreme latitudes, so it gets sunlight at less acute angles."
…the CHANGE in Sea Ice albedo forcing at the Arctic is about 6 times greater than the change at the Antarctic.
Dave is wrong to tell us that the Antarctic Sea Ice Maximum is comparable to the Arctic minimum – there's very little change in the maximum, no discernible trend and it is only the minimum that reflects (excuse the pun) the all important melt season where sea ice influences the albedo forcing.
Dave is wrong to tell us that Antarctic Ice is more important than Arctic Ice for Albedo. Accounting for latitude and orbital angles the change in Albedo forcing is about six times greater at the Arctic.
He's wrong to tell us that the Antarctic is comparable to the Arctic as an indicator of Global Climate Change – the Antarctic climate is still dominated by unique local factors.
Reference to the Antarctic would have as much place providing balance in the PBS piece as reference to Stoke on Trent.
He's also wrong to tell us that sea level rise isn't accelerating (http://tamino.wordpress.com/2012/09/26/unnatural-hazards/). He's even jumped the gun and got the wrong end of the stick on Antarctic Ice Mass, but that's another story for another day.
neilblanchard Says:
The Antarctic ice is not a "balance" for the Arctic ice — it is 1/4th the scale, and it is a very different situation. There is more precipitation because there is more moisture in the atmosphere.
Listen to this for a more info:
http://onpoint.wbur.org/2012/09/24/a-new-low-for-arctic-ice
Neil, where did you get the idea that the ice around Antarctica is "1/4 the scale" if the Arctic ice?
Actually, average sea ice extent near Antarctica is very similar to the average Northern hemisphere sea ice extent. They both average around 9 million sq-km, over a year. The global summed sea-ice extent averages around 18 million sq-km:
Here's the Southern hemisphere (Southern Ocean / Antarctica):
maximum = ~ 16 million sq-km
Here's the Northern hemisphere (Arctic ocean and surrounding basins):
Plus, as I previously mentioned, from an albedo-based climate feedback perspective, Arctic ice is less important than Antarctic ice, because the average latitude is more extreme for Arctic ice, so it gets less direct sunlight.
Plus, as I previously mentioned, Arctic sea ice is much more susceptible to non-climate-related shift, due to the vagaries of wind and weather. Even a single big storm can have a major effect on Arctic ice, as happened this year:
This year, a powerful cyclone formed off the coast of Alaska and moved on Aug. 5 to the center of the Arctic Ocean, where it churned the weakened ice cover for several days. The storm cut off a large section of sea ice north of the Chukchi Sea and pushed it south to warmer waters that made it melt entirely. It also broke vast extensions of ice into smaller pieces more likely to melt.
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012-seaicemin.html
But Antarctica anchors ice in the Southern Ocean, and no single storm can affect the whole expanse, because there's a continent in the middle. So Southern Ocean (Antarctic) sea ice extent is a better indicator of the effects of climate than is Arctic ice.
climate deniers would like you to believe there have never been any storms or wind in the arctic
before this year.
Climate alarmists would like you to believe:
* that there's 1/4 as much sea ice surrounding Antarctica as there is in the Arctic Ocean, and
* that that latitude of the ice doesn't matter w/r/t albedo feedback, and
* that huge summer cyclones are not unusual at the North Pole
They're in denial. How about you, Peter? Do you believe any of those three silly things?
{voice of Jeff Foxworthy} You might be a denier if…
And like magic, I give you the first of the denier horde….
Sooooo predictable!

Lee, you're drifting from the script. A "hoard" is more than 3%.
Jean Mcmahon Says:
Anyhow I like the use of the term "Air conditioner of the Earth"..It gets the picture across so people can understand more easily what we are loosing
Ian Orchard Says:
I'd check to see whether any ice mass gains in Antarctica aren't the result of snowfall, a rare occurrence on a continent noted for its dryness. The millions of cubic kilometres of ice down there have accumulated veery slowly from ice crystals dropping from the stratosphere, not from rain/snow blowing in from the surrounding oceans.
Note also that the enormous mass of ice gives it far more thermal inertia than the Arctic ocean, so we can expect changes to occur much slower than in the northern hemisphere. The fact that changes are occurring, like accelerating glaciers, ice shelf breakups or snow, suggests a heads-up is overdue. Not a time for going into denial.
jayzwally Says:
Very good commentary by:
about our Antarctic mass balance paper.
Antarctic is losing more mass in the parts (Antarctic Peninsula) and the coast of West Antarctica that are showing the largest climate warming. East Antarctica and other parts are gaining mass and have been for a very long time. Because those parts are very cold all year, and climate warming there is small, no significant ongoing change in mass loss and gain there.
