How Howard Ashman's Battle with AIDS Inspired Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast'
Written by Alexander Kacala on March 1, 2017
This post is also available in: Español ไทย
If you don't know the name Howard Ashman, you already know every lyric he wrote.
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love
Love to explore that shore above?
Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world
His words are some of the most popular song lyrics ever, filling the sweeping scores of The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Little Shop of Horrors and Beauty and the Beast. The latter is about to be imagined as a live-action remake, continuing Ashman's legacy that helped shape one of the most powerful and enduring Disney classics ever.
The original 1991 animated film may have turned out much differently were it not for Ashman's tragic struggle. On the night of the 62nd Academy Awards, he told his collaborator Alan Menken that they needed to talk when they got back to New York City. This is where he opened up that he was HIV positive. He had been diagnosed in 1988, midway through the making of The Little Mermaid.
His diagnosis and ensuing battle with AIDS would help shape his work on Beauty and the Beast:
Attitude explains:
"Disney had been developing Beauty and the Beast for decades. But there was a specific version they were working on developing in the Eighties.
On the heels of The Little Mermaid they showed it to [composer] Alan Menken and Howard Ashman. Ashman had just found out he had AIDS, and it was his idea, not only to make it into a musical but also to make Beast one of the two central characters; until then it had mostly been Belle's story that they had been telling.
And specifically for him it was a metaphor for AIDS. He was cursed and this curse had brought sorrow on all those people who loved him and maybe there was a chance for a miracle and a way for the curse to be lifted. It was a very concrete thing that he was doing."
After the first screening for Beauty and the Beast on March 10, 1991, the animators visited Ashman in the hospital. He weighed 80 pounds, had lost his sight and could barely speak. The animators and producer Don Hahn told him that the film was incredibly well received by the audience.
Four days later on March 14, he died. He was only 40 years old.
Howard Ashman's obituary reads:
Howard Ashman, an Oscar-winning lyricist and a librettist, playwright and director who wrote and staged the Off Broadway hit Little Shop of Horrors, died yesterday at St. Vincent's Hospital. He was 40 years old and lived in Beacon, N.Y.
His companion was William Lauch, an architect.
Ashman's heartbreaking story is one of great lose. Because of this horrible disease, there is so much great work he never got to create. However, his indelible mark on music and film is still felt today by the world. He gave a mermaid her voice, a beast his soul and he gave us stories to never forget.
Not just theirs, but his as well.
'Beauty and the Beast' opens nationwide March 17.

Pride is not a complex or challenging movie. It's not telling a story that is new, or in a new way. But it is so affectionate and thoughtfully detailed—taking care to weave in a surprising number of threads about specific trials faced by the queer community into the movie's central story, that of a real historical moment of solidarity between a London-based group of gays & lesbians and striking Welsh miners in 1984. But it never feels to me like the movie is simply running through a checklist of instances of Thatcher-era homophobia and labor oppression, because while what happens may be quite paint-by-numbers, it is painted with such tender attention. It is a work of love, quite truly: after watching it this time, I learned that the screenplay was written by Stephen Beresford, Andrew Scott's partner of then nine years. I think that's where so much of the film's feeling of warmth comes from—it was made by family, about the family who came before.
In fact, one of my favorite elements of this movie is the way it depicts the brevity of gay generations, how queer folks just a bit older than you can seem like they come from a whole different era. Andrew Scott's character Gethin and his boyfriend Jonathan (a delightful Dominic West), just by dint of being over 25, as Gethin wryly alludes to in an early scene, are very much the group's elders. They would have come of age in the early '70s, during London's glam scene—clear from everything Jonathan ever wears or does—and now quietly, on Gethin's part at least, run a gay bookshop together. And it's so tenderly observed how we see that now in the '80s, those barely ten years younger than them already view them as mildly out-of-touch and embarrassing in that way of parents, but also a source of domestic stability (again like parents), their place serving as a harbor for "orphans from the storm." I love that we get their distinct generational outlook on the current events of the movie—"What ever happened to Gay Lib, Jonathan?"—that sense of a continuous queer history this lends, within a movie that is itself about a very specific period of it.
And, part of what it is that creates the brevity of gay generations, particularly at work in the 1980s, is certainly not ignored. Homophobic politics that kept queer people in danger, unprotected from violent attacks on their property and their bodies, and of course the deathly shadow of AIDS that begins to crawl across the film. Pride, again, approaches these familiar story beats with care and detail, depicting several different ways HIV can impact those who are diagnosed and those who love them. Sure, particularly in instances of illness and injury this movie is a tear-jerker, a heart-string-puller, and honestly what of it? Like we haven't been telling for ages of human history these sorts of predictable, poignant stories of people experiencing both tragedies and triumphs, and ending in hope. They have a value for the heart, and for the community. I was trying to access why I find even the sadness in this movie somehow cozy to experience, and Emily had it: Pride is like a queer folk tale.
It is also one of those movies with the kind of deeply banked cast of talent where Russell Tovey can show up for just one scene. And special shout-out to supporting actor "aerial shots of the Welsh countryside," one of the standouts. But truly, what tips this movie over the top is Andrew Scott. No matter what he's doing he seems to be drawn in ink that's bleeding right through the screen into your heart. Just an indelible performance. The way Gethin's painful personal history in Wales gently plays out consistently reduced us to wails of our own. When he takes that phone call on Christmas from Imelda Staunton? It's just this little moment and I'm like, this is better and more moving than most cinema. If you've seen him as the Priest in Fleabag, you know how impossibly endearing Andrew Scott can be, and he was perfecting that here, with Dominic West in his big scarves and pink pajama pants in tow. Those two are so lovingly married in this, and it's…honestly one of the most comforting things to watch. A queer folk tale. Can we hear it again, in front of the fire?

Another Court Rules Against Large-Scale Livestock Farms
Posted on September 22, 2021 | by ProtectTheHarvest
Originally found on Latest updates.
San Francisco-based court says Idaho pollutant permit lacks sufficient monitoring.
By Protect The Harvest Advisory Committee Member, Gary Baise | Sep 20, 2021
The United States is home to 21,000 large-scale livestock farms, or Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations. According to an appeals court opinion handed down Thursday, Sept. 16, 2021, the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco once again ruled for the environmentalists against these farms.
The case is no. 20-71554 and was brought by Food and Water Watch against EPA. (No agriculture group was involved!!!!) The opinion has to do with a general NPDES permit granted by EPA to Idaho. Reuters, in its story about the victory for the environmentalists, succinctly stated the issue: Idaho's "…National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (NPDES) lacks sufficient safeguards to ensure that pollutants from CAFOs, typically manure from the thousands of animals raised in the facilities or litter, would not end up in nearby waterways."
The opinion was written by Judge William Fletcher. Two other Court of Appeals judges joined him. Judge Fletcher is a Bill Clinton appointee. Judge Fletcher has no agricultural background and in 2020, according to some reports, he was concerned that the U.S. Forest Service was cutting trees for monetary gain. He has ruled that Arizona's policy of not counting ballots filed in the wrong precinct is unconstitutional.

Red Sea Ethiopian Restaurant - San Diego Dining Dish!
It's been quite some time, years, in fact, since I've had a good Ethiopian meal. I ate plenty of Ethiopian when I lived in the Baltimore/DC area, but have only had it a few times in San Diego. The last time I had it was at the now-defunct Bayu in Hillcrest.
The décor is very simple, but the pride in the Ethiopian culture is evident with wall hangings depicting the flag, tourist attractions, cities, and past leaders.
After sitting down and scanning the menus, we ordered the beef tibs, which is strips of top sirloin marinated then stir-fried with onion and spices. Kik Alicha, yellow stewed split peas, was ordered as an additional side dish for a very small cost. Ethiopian cuisine has a very large selection of tasty vegetarian options, so this is a great place to take vegetarian friends.
Everything was served on a giant injera (Ethiopian sour dough bread) pancake, with additional injera on the side.
The food was amazing! Everything was so flavorful, and because we used the bread as utensils, extremely filling. We ate almost everything, but were full to bursting after all of that.
After dinner, we ordered the Ethiopian coffee ceremony (my husband's primary reason for choosing Ethiopian food for the evening!). The coffee ceremony is usually for 4 people, but the price is so reasonable ($10), that we decided to get it anyway. The beans are roasted in a pan and brought to the table, then taken into the back, ground, and placed into a clay pot. A filter (traditionally of horsehair, but plastic for California) is placed into the bottom, then boiling water is poured over it.
Served with frankincense for atmosphere, the coffee was a beautiful amber-colored liquid, and although quite strong, was very good.
Before we even left, my husband started planning what we would order next time. And the prices are so reasonable, next time will not be too far off!

Forth to Farne Walk close to completion
Funding from an East Lothian wind farm has enabled the community of Cranshaws to fulfil their dream of enhancing the environmental diversity of the area and providing a new local amenity for locals and visitors.
Residents of the Village wanted to create a community walk and, after securing backing from local landowners, needed to raise almost £40,000 to create the route.
Fortunately, that money was quickly provided by the Lammermuir Community Fund, which annually receives £50,000 from Community Windpower's Aikengall Community Wind Farms.
Months of clearing work, planting new trees and installing fencing followed, with the Cranshaws Community Walk recently opened for use.
Dave Lochhead, one of originators of the walk alongside Neil Anderson, said: "We're delighted to now have this fantastic amenity in Cranshaws and can't thank everyone involved enough for making this dream become a reality.
"This includes my fellow volunteers, Neil and Sheila Pattullo, local landowners, members of Lammermuir Community Fund and owners of Aikengall Community Wind Farm, Community Windpower.
"It really has been a team effort and something Cranshaws and the wider community can be rightly proud of.
"We want Cranshaws Community Walk to be something people from far and wide can come along to and enjoy, taking in the various landscapes and experience an area that has been created with the environment and wildlife habitats in mind.
"While the walk is now open, this is merely the first phase. We want local folk and visitors to take a stroll, give feedback for the completion of this stage and provide ideas for further development.
"Already suggestions for a fairy house trail and a maze to encourage children to enjoy this outdoor experience have been put forward."
The circular walk is approximately 4km in length, taking about 1.5 hours to complete and includes picnic sites and viewpoints.
"One of these is a community orchard, named after local landowner Professor Penny, which contains a variety of young fruit trees," added Dave.
"The walk itself follows the course of the Whiteadder river. Car parks are provided at the junction of the Harehead Road and at the foot of 'Post Brae'; both are starting points for the walk.
"After navigating alongside the river, Cranshaws Community Walk meanders through woodland and steers walkers across open countryside, providing many opportunities to enjoy the biodiversity of the area.
"We hope the next phase of the walk will include enabling wheelchair access along a beautiful riverside path leading to the community orchard and a picnic site by the river.
"Also, a series of wildlife interpretation boards are planned to encourage a wider range of visitors to enjoy the area."
It is hoped the walk will act as a place for people to exercise and enjoy during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
Diane Wood, community benefits director at Community Windpower, which operates the Aikengall Community Wind Farms in East Lothian, said: "The community walk in Cranshaws is a fantastic environment for people to explore and be at one with nature.
"It provides the area with a richly biodiverse amenity, which we hope will be used by many people in the future.
"We're really pleased to see how the community benefit fund from the Aikengall Community Wind Farms have been used by Lammermuir Community Fund, and I hope to be able to enjoy the walk in the near future."

Top 10 Siblings in Animated Movies
by Kelly Conley
in Disney, DreamWorks, Illumination Entertainment, Opinions, Pixar, Studio Ghibli, Uncategorized
Ah, siblings. Love them or hate them, siblings make life interesting, especially in animated movies. Siblings play such a important role in movies that I have compiled a short list of the top 10 sibling pairs or groups in animated films. Sorry, but I won't be including siblings from TV shows; that would make this list way too long.
Note: This list contains spoilers!
#10 – The Darling Siblings (Peter Pan)
Wendy, John, and Michael Darling have been flying into viewers' hearts since 1953. They are extremely close, bonding over their shared interest of Peter Pan and looking out for each other during their crazy adventures in Neverland. Wendy clearly acts as the leader by caring for her brothers, telling them stories, and acting like an excellent role model (standing up to Captain Hook takes some guts). These siblings make us wish they never had to grow up.
#9 – Ben and Saoirse (Song of the Sea)
At the start of this Oscar-nominated movie, Ben and Saoirse are not the closest of siblings. Ben, in fact, acts like a domineering, bullying older sibling to his quiet, sweet little sister, Saoirse, who repeatedly tries to befriend him. Ben's mean attitude stems from a tragic event on the night Saoirse was born. Over the course of the film, Ben learns to better love and appreciate his sister which brings them closer together by the end.
#8 – Violet, Dash, and Jack Jack Parr (The Incredibles)
Violet and Dash embody the typical sibling relationship—fighting and teasing each other on a daily basis. Their shenanigans are only amplified with their superpowers. Though they may fight every day, you can be sure they will do anything to protect each other whenever danger or villains come around. Baby Jack Jack is mostly absent from the film, but Violet and Dash clearly care for him, and he gets to shine when he takes on the nefarious Syndrome.
#7 – Jack Frost and Pippa (Rise of the Guardians)
Jack Frost doesn't get much screen time with his little sister Pippa (I had to check IMD for clarification of her name). Despite the limited interaction, we can clearly see that Jack is very close to Pippa, even sacrificing his life to save her. This act of selflessness is made more heartwarming and heart-wrenching when Jack unlocks his memories from his mortal life, inspiring him to fully embrace his destiny as a Guardian. While Pippa isn't frequently seen in the movie, she plays a pivotal role in Jack Frost's personal journey.
"BRAVE" (L-R) MERIDA amongst the triplets: HARRIS, HUBERT and HAMISH; KING FERGUS and QUEEN ELINOR. ©2011 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.
#6 – Merida and the Triplets (Brave)
Merida may love riding though the glen, firing arrows into the sunset, but she also adores her little brothers. The triplets—Hubert, Harris, and Hamish—are a trio of mischief and fun. They'll do anything for a plate of delicious pastries, and they'll gladly help their older sister when she's in trouble but at a price, of course. When their mom is in danger, Merida can count on her brothers to aid her whether it be stealing a key or leading the clans on a wild goose chase around the castle.
#5 – Jiro and Kayo (The Wind Rises)
Jiro and his little sister Kayo don't have a lot of screen time together, but their relationship is obviously a close one. Kayo may come across a little bossy and impatient towards her older brother, but she clearly loves him. Jiro, too, is a wonderful older brother; he supports Kayo's desire to become a doctor, even promising to talk to their dad about allowing her to pursue college when she grows older.
#4 – Ruffnut and Tuffnut (How to Train Your Dragon)
Ruffnut and Tuffnut are inseparable, and they constantly bicker and fight like no other siblings in animation. They may be secondary characters to Hiccup and Astrid, but their shenanigans provide great comic relief in the films. It's also great to see the two work out a partnership that allows them to simultaneously argue with one another and fly a dragon without killing themselves in the process.
#3 – Hiro and Tadashi (Big Hero 6)
This sibling duo is truly heartwarming. When Tadashi isn't rescuing his little brother Hiro from trouble, he's either pushing Hiro to be a better person or working on project that will benefit society. Hiro clearly adores his big brother and looks up to him as a role model, so it's all the more heartbreaking when Tadashi dies, leaving a grieving Hiro behind. However, Tadashi is not completely gone as his legacy lives on in the inflatable robot Baymax who seeks to help and protect others.
#2 – Margo, Edith, and Agnes (Despicable Me)
These three girls stole viewers' hearts in 2010 when they served as a lovable foil to the super-villain Gru. As orphaned sisters, they stick together through thick and thin and protect each other from any danger. They may have different personalities and interests, but their unique characters only bring them closer together. Scheming Gru is definitely no match to their spunky and sassy attitudes.
#1 – Anna and Elsa (Frozen)
Alright; you probably saw this one coming, but Anna and Elsa are undoubtedly the most famous sibling pair in animation right now. Both sisters embody sibling love for each other. Elsa locked herself away in hopes of protecting Anna from further harm while Anna constantly sought to draw her sister out of her bedroom. Anna's love is later exemplified when she protects Elsa at the cost of her own life. Both girls show their love in different ways which has positive and negative consequences in the film. In the end, however, both learn the power and value of love.

Def Leppard postpones remainder of tour due to unspecified illness
Def Leppard's Phil Collen
Huckabee performs 'Pour Some Sugar on Me' with the guitarist
The British rock band Def Leppard is postponing the remainder of its winter tour due to an unspecified illness.
A statement on the group's website said all concerts starting Tuesday through Feb. 17 will be rescheduled. That includes shows scheduled in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and Brooklyn, New York.
A publicist for the band did not respond to a message seeking details.
The band previously postponed shows in January in Greensboro, North Carolina, and Orlando, Florida, after singer Joe Elliott lost his voice.
Def Leppard, known for such songs as "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and "Photograph," released its latest self-titled album last year and debuted its new music video for "Dangerous" through the video game "Guitar Hero Live."

Eminem during The Detroit Hip Hop Summit at Cobo Arena in Detroit, Michigan, United States.
Who could have guessed that Slim Shady would be the go to person for when you are trying to lose weight?
But according to Spotify, Eminem's "Till I Collapse" is the top global streamed song of all time for the third year in a row. Spotify released details of which songs are making it to the top of the lists of the 43.5 million workout-themed playlists that feature on the site.
Although Eminem's 2002 hit song is the most streamed workout song of all time on Spotify, it only comes in third place for 2018, beaten by Drake's "God's Plan". However, "Till I Collapse" is still the go-to song for the male species as well as those generally aged 13-34, while women apparently prefer sweating to Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars' "Uptown Funk".
Women are actually the main creators of Spotify workout playlists, while the Nordic countries of Finland and Sweden are the most featured, respectively occupying the first and second spots of the most active countries.
If you are frustrated that the youth has forgotten the knockout workout song "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor, fear not because the 35-54 year old crowd is keeping the spirit of Rocky alive and kicking. But to make things interesting and maybe even a little weird, those who have reached retirement age are apparently inspired by Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass".
But, it doesn't really matter what people are choosing to work-out to in the end, as long as they are making a concerted effort to get physical and work out to get the bodies of their dreams.
So if you are looking to get moving this year, here are the top streamed songs on Spotify to help inspire you.
It would seem that hip hop is the most inspiring genre when working out. Both Eminem and Kanye West occupy the top four spots of the most streamed work out songs on Spotify.

Ovo je članak o Amfiktionu, mitološkoj osobi. Za Amfiktioniju, drevnu grčku vjersku organizaciju, vidi Amfiktionska liga.

Amfiktion (grč. ̓Αμφικτυών) je u grčkoj mitologiji sin Deukaliona i Pire, iako neke tradicije tvrde da je autohton (rođen iz Zemlje). Amfiktion je bio kralj Termopila te oženio kći kralja Kranaja od Atene. Tada je svrgnuo Kranaja te se proglasio kraljem Atene. Vladao je Atenom deset godina i osnovao Amfiktionsku ligu, koja se u sastajala u Termopilu. Amfiktioona je svrgnuo Erihtonije Atenski, još jedan autohtoni kralj Atene.

Q: How do you know it's almost spring in Massachusetts? A: There's a lot of sunlight on the latest six inches of snow, and it's heavy and wet instead of light and fluffy.
Lisa's parents came up this weekend for the flower show, and got to enjoy another heavy snowfall while they were here. But the snow stopped overnight, and when I took the dogs outside this morning, it looked like the whole street had burst into bloom with a profusion of white flowers. Comparing the trees behind the house this morning to the same trees this fall, I'm not sure I don't prefer the winter version; after all, I won't have to rake those snowy "leaves," even if getting the snow off the driveway strains a few muscles.

Cross the Bridge - June 17, 2012
<< Cross the Bridge Daily Evotionals with David McGee
The Great Symphony - Sunday, June 17th 2012
Ezra 3:1
"And when the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered together as one man to Jerusalem."
The Bible says that one can put a thousand to flight and that two can put 10,000 to flight. In the book of Acts, the Church was united to the point that they were sharing everything they had with each other. Jesus, Himself, likewise prays for our unity.
John 17:21, "that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me."NKJV
When the Church walks in unity, it's like a fine symphony playing for the world to hear. But, imagine if each person in that symphony was not united. What if the percussionists walked over to the flutists and said, "You really need to beat on that thing to get a good tone out of it". Then the flutists walked over to the violinists and said, "You need to blow on it gently to get a good tone." The violinists then walked over to the trombonists and said, "You really need to use the bow to get a good tone out of that instrument." I just described to you part of what is wrong with the Christian body. Each and every one of us is designed to do something a little bit different than the other, and when we walk in unity, it is incredible. Today, look for ways to play your part while encouraging other believers to do theirs. Together, we will fill the world with God's beautiful song.
Life Lesson: There is incredible power in unity, while division drains power.
Thank You for the Church. I pray that You would unite us together so that we will be better used to reach the world with Your Gospel. Teach us to play our parts well while celebrating and encouraging the parts of others. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Living to tell what He died to say,
Pastor David McGee

There's no discrimination when it comes down to the reasons for tinnitus as it happens to the young, the old and the between. Tinnitus or ringing in ears is fortunately an illness that will not harm long-term health and will not threaten a long cheerful life-span. Symptoms are simple to identify, as it's explained as a loud ringing sound in the ear canal and can't be heard by anybody else but the person who has the tinnitus. Infrequently the ringing sound gets sufficiently bad that it wakes tinnitus sufferers up in the middle of the night, that's why there's a need to find the bestringing in ears treatment.
The inner ear and outer ear as well as the front and back ear canals can all be influenced by tinnitus. To get shot of the illness it's not necessarily a simple task. In truth many individuals who finish up afflicted by tinnitus do so noiselessly because they have not found a cure that would help them. There is not a particular age that comes with the illness and in almost all of the cases younger folks find tinnitus to be just as large a difficulty as the older population does.
A giant reason for tinnitus essentially appear to be due to head and ear wounds of nearly any kind, serious or not. Vitamin E appears to play a large role in effecting how folks handle the tinnitus condition as patients achieve relief by either augmenting or decreasing their intake, dependent on who they are. For reasons that are not yet understood, vitamin E has a tendency to lend a hand in the strain and noises brought forth by a condition like tinnitus. Since tinnitus isn't considered as life-endangering or significant, uncovering a cure isn't at the very top of the list for most medicare executives.
Due to this, the majority finish up learning how to live with tinnitus rather than fixing the difficulty so as to get some relief. It's assumed that junking night noises like TVs can help lose the tricky tinnitus symptoms, but day symptoms appear to be the worst.Because there are so very many different aspects to tinnitus, treating the symptoms with constant ringing in ears treatment and learning to get rid of some of the agony needs to be done on a case by case basis. In the final analysis it's a great idea to see a doctor about any aspects and worries that linger after learning more about tinnitus.

One of a series of articles about musicians and groups and some of the perhaps lesser-known songwriters and players behind some of rock's classic artists and songs. So far: Bob Seger, Long John Baldry, Tony Joe White, Harry Nilsson, Glen Campbell, Paul Revere & The Raiders, Johnny Rivers, The Rascals, Rick Nelson, Del Shannon, Badfinger, Bob Marley, etc.
Jeff Lynne was the brains behind Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) and their many hits in the 70's & 80's. But he is also one of rock's most respected producers, having produced albums for the ex-Beatles, Tom Petty, Traveling Wilburys, Roy Orbison, Dave Edmunds, Brian Wilson, Randy Newman, etc.
Lynn was originally from Birmingham, England. He was in an early band, Idle Race, which put out two albums in '69. But in 1970, he joined The Move, led by Roy Wood. The Move were well respected and popular in England and known for their theatrical performances, but were not known very much in America at the time. They recorded 4 British albums: The Move, Shazam, Looking On and Message from The Country and several great singles, "I Can Hear The Grass Grow", "Flowers in The Rain", "Brontosaurus", "California Man" and "Do Ya", from 1966-'72.
Then Roy Wood and, now Jeff Lynn who joined The Move in 1970, had this idea to combine rock and classical, which led to ELO. Wood left around that time to form his own band, Wizard, which had some success in England. But Lynne carried on with the original drummer, Bev Bevan, from The Move, and added Richard Tandy on synthesizer and others on string instruments. Lynne, Beatles-influenced, said he hoped to create the kind of sound used in John Lennon's, "I Am the Walrus".
ELO's first album, contained their first hybrid classical-rock hit, "Roll Over Beethoven", in 1972. They were to go on to have many successful: On the Third Day ('73), Eldorado ('74), Face The Music ('75), New World Record ('76), double Lp Out of The Blue ('77), Discovery ('79) and several more into the 80's. And off these albums they would have several, especially in America, massively popular hits, "Evil Woman", "Livin' Thing", "Strange Magic", "Telephone Line", "Mr. Blue Sky", "Hold on Tight", "Don't Bring Me Down", and many more.
But in the mid-1980's, Jeff Lynne (who wrote the songs and was basically ELO), disbanded them to concentrate on his other love, producing. In 1987, he produced and co-wrote songs for George Harrison's, Cloud 9, and co-wrote his "This is Love". Then as part of the supergroup, Traveling Wilburys (Harrison, Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Lynne), he co-produced with Harrison their two classic albums. This led to Lynne producing Orbison's Mystery Girl in '88 and co-producing Tom Petty's next two albums, Full Moon Fever and co-writing hits, "I Won't Back Down", "Free Fallin'", and Into The Great Wide Open ("Learning to Fly") in 1989 and '91. He also produced songs for Brian Wilson, Duane Eddy and Randy Newman., and a posthumous album for Del Shannon, Rock On.
Lynne put out his first solo album, Armchair Theatre, with the single, "Every Little Thing", in 2001, including George Harrison and old ELO bandmate, Richard Tandy. But it was when he was chosen to produce two left-over John Lennon songs, "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love", with the remaining Beatles for their Anthologies in '95 and '96, that he finally got to work with all his long-time heroes, The Beatles. He then produced one of Paul McCartney's best recent albums, Flaming Pie, in '97.
In 2001, Lynne put out one more ELO album, Zoom, with guests George Harrison, Ringo and Richard Tandy. And he produced George Harrisons excellent last album, Brainwashed, before Harrison died in November, 2001 and produced the live tribute CD, Concert for George, in 2003. He produced an album, Analogue Man, for Joe Walsh in 2012 and Lynne released his second solo album, Long Wave, in 2013. He also provided a song for the Hollywood film, American Hustle.
For the 50th anniversary of The Beatles coming to America Grammy Tribute, in Feb, 2014, Lynne performed "Something" and "Hey Bulldog". It's also been announced that he is producing Bryan Adams new CD.
Lynne re-visited his hometown, Birmingham, England and received an award in September-not bad for a Birmingham lad, who realized his dream of combining rock and classical and getting to work with some of rock's biggest artists. Jeff Lynne also has the distinction of being one of the few producers to work with The Beatles, besides their long-time producer, George Martin, and legendary producer, Phil Spector, and to become one of their close friends.
I was fortunate to see Jeff Lynne and ELO three times: The first for their 1st album with "Roll Over Beethoven" in 1972. At that concert they did a version of the original Move rocker," Do Ya", originally written for The Move. I remember they also did a great cover of The Beatles,"Daytripper" too.
I next saw them in '80 in Montreal at the Man & His World, former Expo '67 site for their album, Eldorado. It was a beautiful summer night, and the first time I saw lasers used in a concert.
And again at the Montreal Forum in '77 for their double album, Out Of The Blue, with their 'Flying Saucer' stage. ELO always had a very theatrical part to their live shows. They were always one of my favorite bands, besides The Beatles.

I 'm still amazed myself, how new generations are still affected by them, all these years later, a half-century later now since their North American Invasion. I was at a family get-together, recently, and a grand- nephew of mine came up to me to introduce his high school girlfriend to me. Evidently he had told her that I knew some things about The Beatles. She was all ga-ga (and not for Lady Ga-Ga evidently), but for The Beatles. So I told her a couple of my own Beatles' experiences and gave her a copy of my book, "It's A Long Way Home" (& How Beatles' Music Saved My Life). I noticed that she was like those young awe-struck first Beatles' fans or like we were when we first saw them on the Ed Sullivan show. She could relate just as much to them, even all these decades later. Somehow their songs were able to still capture all those moments in time and the emotions. And it wasn't just the Babyboomers, like me who had grown up with them, but for new generations to come too, it seemed. The girl insisted on giving me a hug after, and I knew some things would always feel the same.

"AL & THE G-MEN" ———BIO.
Al "Sticks" Chrisman has been kickin' around music for a while, having run a vinyl store, promoting musicians, organizing concerts, Beatles Conventions, etc. He also specializes in the jungle rhythms of the lost Amazonian tribe, the Gutu.

And together, they formed "Al & THE G-MEN" to combine and explore their unique tastes. Thus far, they have written and recorded independently over 50 songs including their CD of original songs to accompany Al's 2013 book, "It's A Long Way Home", about his involvement in the Ottawa, Canada music scene the past several years.

The truth may be hard to swallow. But it's important to find.
It's never been easier to find out if a politician is telling a lie. And it's never been harder to get the truth out. Thankfully, there are fact-checking sites to help you out.
Fact-checking is particularly challenging in the current era of "fake news," "alternative facts," and gaslighting coming from the White House of all places. Fake Twitter accounts spread lies that fool journalists. Conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones and Russia's state-funded propaganda mill RT compete with established media outlets like the New York Times and BBC. Meanwhile, accusations of liberal or conservative bias mar the reputations of virtually any source of information you encounter online, from WikiLeaks to the Wall Street Journal.
The election of President Donald Trump did not usher America into a "factless" or "post-truth" reality. A fact is still a fact in 2017. It's just gotten more difficult to discern who's telling the truth and what sources you can consider reputable.
That's why fact-checking sites are more important than ever.
Political fact-checkers investigate submitted claims from politicians and other sources of authority for accuracy and then write stories about their findings.
The "big three" non-partisan political fact-checkers—Politifact, Factcheck.org, and the Washington Post's Fact Checker—came of age in the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections. They all worked overtime for the 2016 election, and the volume of their work has only increased since the Trump's inauguration.
Alexio Mantzarlis, who leads the Internet Fact-Checking Network at Poynter, predicted that 2017 would see a huge boom in fact-checking around the world. "Trump's particular relationship with evidence and Facebook's decision to allow third-party fact-checkers influence over News Feed will likely make it easier to make the case for continued operations to editors and funders," wrote Mantzarliz in a blog post.
If you're looking to verify the veracity of a claim, there are basic steps you can take.
For those looking to go one step further, here's an overview of the major political fact-checking websites.
Politifact is a project of the Tampa Bay Times. It won a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of the 2008 election, during which it examined 750 claims.
Politifact fact-checks claims by politicians at the federal, state, and local level, as well as political parties, PACs, and advocacy groups. Politifact rates the accuracy of these claims on its Truth-O-Meter, which goes from "True," "Mostly True," "Half True," "False," and "Pants on Fire." There are separate verticals of Politifact for global news and select states.
In 2015, we recognized that Trump had an unusually large number of false claims and that in some instances he would double down on his false claims and insist they were true—even when us and others have proven him wrong. As a result, we named him the 'King of the Whoppers.' It was the first time we have ever done it, and we hope the last.
The Post's Fact Checker blog is run by journalist Glenn Kessler. The site assesses claims made by politicians or political advocacy groups and gives out Pinochios based on its level of accuracy.
According to Kessler, one of the most widely read Fact Checker columns was a debunking of the Sean Hannity-backed claim that Trump lent his private plane to transport 200 Gulf War Marines back home.
A separate vertical of FactCheck.org, FlackCheck.org focuses on false claims in campaign ads and other advertising. The site debunks scientific and health claims.
OpenSecrets, also known as the Center for Responsive Politics, tracks money in U.S. politics and its effect on elections and public policy. It allows you to easily track campaign spending and contributions without laboring through the Federal Election Commission's website. OpenSecrets also tracks the money that the private sector, industry groups, unions, and other lobbyists spend to lobby Congress.
The Sunlight Foundation is a nonprofit that lead the way for public accountability data journalism. Its Hall of Justice offers state-by-state data sets on criminal justice.
Snopes.com is the go-to destination for debunking strange internet rumors. California couple Barbara and David Mikkelson founded the site in 1995 to uncover urban legends, rumors, and other questionable bits of folklore that had begun cropping up in chain emails and message boards.
Snopes has spent a large chunk of its time shedding light on Election 2016 rumors that originated from memes and fake news stories. A recent Snopes.com fact check revealed that a meme stating that all living ex-presidents are against Trump is not entirely true (though reports have emerged that George H.W. Bush will be voting for Clinton). Snopes.com also laid to rest a rumor that Clinton sent a body double in her place to a 9/11 memorial service, which reached momentum after #HillarysBodyDouble began to trend on Twitter.
Note: Partisan fact-checkers are those with a purported liberal or conservative bent.
A pro-Hillary Clinton SuperPAC that fact-checks claims made against Clinton by Trump and other politicians, Correct the Record also runs Trump Lies and the Benghazi Research Center.
NewsBusters is a website that devotes itself to "combating liberal media bias." NewsBusters was launched by the Media Research Center in 2005, the same group behind CNSNews.com. It has been criticized by Media Matters and others for its questionable fact-checking techniques.
