Hep' Me – The Senator Jones Story
http://www.ponderosastomp.com/blog/2010/05/hep-me-the-senator-jones-story/
Since the late 1950s to the dawn of the new millennium, there have been well over 200 different independent labels operating in and around New Orleans — perhaps the most of any American city outside of Nashville and New York. In the early days the record business appealed to individuals of various backgrounds who shared an entrepreneurial streak. For an investment of just a few hundred dollars, you could record and press several hundred singles. With a little luck — and maybe a $20 bill or a fifth of whiskey given to the right jock or jukebox operator — you could recoup your investment or, better yet, score a bona-fide hit record. With the abundance of R&B talent in New Orleans, it would happen with mind-boggling frequency.
As one old-school label owner and producer pointed out, "If you threw 10 (singles) out there and one stuck, it would pay for the other nine, and you still made money. That's how the business worked." With that kind of playing field, the independent record business obviously attracted many interesting and fascinating characters — and none more so than Senator Jones.
Between the late 1960s and early 1980s, Jones recorded an enormous amount of local R&B talent and headed up several labels under the "Erica Productions," umbrella, a business he ran out of a small, cluttered office in the Masonic building on St. Bernard Avenue. Johnny Adams, Charles Brimmer, Barbara George, Chris Kenner, Tommy Ridgley, Walter Washington and James Rivers were among the numerous New Orleans artists to record for "the Senator." A street-smart hustler who knew the independent record business backwards and forwards, Jones discovered several artists, but perhaps more importantly, he also extended the careers of many veteran R&B performers.
Senator Nolan Jones was born on Nov. 9, 1934, in Jackson, Miss., and his family moved to New Orleans in 1951. Fond of the bright lights, Senator worked as a laborer but was drafted into the Army two years later. Eventually stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia, Jones sang with a vocal group called the Desperados, whose ranks included Oscar Toney Jr. and Jo Jo White. The Desperados occasionally opened shows for the Five Royals as well as Hank Ballard and the Midnighters at nearby clubs.
Jones was discharged in 1957 and returned to New Orleans, where he began sitting in at local clubs like the Dew Drop and Club Tijuana. Hooking up with Al Johnson, Jones helped write "You Done Me Wrong," which Johnson recorded in 1958 for Ron Records. In the early 1960s, Jones began hanging out at Joe Assunto's One Stop Record Shop on South Rampart Street along with the likes of Earl King, Johnny Adams, King Floyd, and Professor Longhair. Assunto was an important player in the local record business, as he was a retailer, a wholesaler, and a record-label owner. Befriending One Stop clerk Beryl "Whurley Burley" Eugene, Jones convinced Eugene that he might well profit from his connections with Assunto if he started his own record label. In 1963, the Whurley Burley label debuted with Jones' truely dreadful "Call the Sheriff"/ "Let Yourself Go."
Senator Jones – Call the Sheriff
The following year Jones cut "Sugar Dee" for Assunto's Watch label and, later, "Einie, Meenie,Minee, Mo" for the International City label, which was owned by a local disc jockey, Bob Robbins. The latter single actually made some noise, and Jones got booked for some local sock hops. International City did another session on Jones that produced "Mini Skirt Dance," which was leased to Bell. However, after four tries, Jones realized he wasn't going to make it as a recording artist.
However, bitten by the record bug, he decided to start working on the other side of the studio board. "I could see that local artists weren't getting as recorded as much as they should," Jones said in 1985. "I saw New Orleans acts steal the shows from national acts with hit records. That's when I started thinking about producing."
In 1968, Jones founded his first label, Black Patch, named for the patch he wore for several years after losing his left eye in an accident, and recorded "The President of Soul," guitarist and singer Rockie Charles from New Orleans' West Bank. When Charles' "Mr. Rickashay" failed to sell, he folded Black Patch and formed a new label, Shagg.
Rockie Charles – The President of Soul
"I recorded 'Kid Stuff,' by the Barons," recalled Jones. "I put that record out on Shagg 711. Shagg was a nickname a lot of artists gave me. 'Kid Stuff' did pretty well. Cosimo Matassa leased it to Dover (distributors) during the session. He paid me $800, which paid off (arranger) Wardell Quezergue and the musicians."
Needing some startup capital to get off the ground, Jones got financing from club and motel owner Ferdinand Prout as well as two All South Records salesmen, Elmo Sonnier and Whitney Picou. The second Shagg single was by Guitar Raya cousin of Earl King, who had earlier recorded for Hot Line. Now highly collectable, the coupling of the intense "You Gonna Wreck My Life" and "I'm Never Gonna Break His Rules" was one of the best blues records to come out of New Orleans in the 1960s.
After just two releases on Shagg, Jones decided to fold it and form several other labels, including Superdome, Erica, Jenmark, JB's, and Hep' Me. "As I got more and more artists, I didn't want to go to the radio stations with seven records on the same label," said Jones. "I knew the deejays would say, 'I can't play all these records; they're all on the same label.' So I started new labels and switched colors on the labels to make them look different."
Eventually, most of Jones releases would come out on Hep' Me, a label that got its name in a curious fashion in the late 1960s. "When John McKeithen (from north Louisiana) was running for governor, he would get on TV and say, 'Won't you please hep me.' Well, it got him elected. I figured if it was good enough for him, it was good enough for me too."
In 1973, local keyboardist, Ray J. (Raymond Jones) had the first release on Hep' Me with a cover of Dr. John's "Right Place Wrong Time," which sold well around New Orleans. Ray J., who doubled as a prep school music teacher, also began arranging sessions for Jones. One of his first sessions produced the 1974 Carnival hit "Second Line Pt. 1 & 2″ by Stop Inc., which appeared on JB's.
"That group was led by two brothers from Baton Rouge, Clyde and Brian Tolivar," said Jones, "Bill Sinigal had recorded the original for White Cliffs, but the master was lost and they couldn't press any more records. It was still a popular Carnival song even though nobody could buy it. Alvin Thomas plays tenor sax on my record because no one in the group could get that second-line sound."
That same year Jones also had a best-seller with Eddie Lang's topical "Food Stamp Blues," which was released on Superdome. A veteran blues guitarist from the north shore, Lang had earlier recorded for RPM and Ron. "Food Stamp Blues" eventually was leased by Jewel Records and became a modest Southern hit.
Jones' next taste of success was with deep-soul legend Charles Brimmer of New Orleans, whose smoldering "Afflicted" topped the local charts. The following year Jones produced Brimmer's biggest hit, "The New God Bless Our Love." Al Green had first recorded "God Bless Our Love," but it was available only on an LP. Despite the pleas of jukebox operators and distributors, Green's label, Hi, refused to issue the song on a single, hoping to extend the sales of the album. Jones was shrewd enough to realize there was a demand for a single of "God Bless Our Love" even it wasn't by Al Green. Jones asked Brimmer to cover the song, and 48 hours after delivering dubs of "The New God Bless Our Love" to radio stations, Jones' distributor, All South Records, had orders for 10,000 singles. Jones didn't have enough money to press that many singles, so he leased "The New God Bless Our Love" to the Chelsea label in Los Angeles. Chelsea wound up selling 60,000 singles as well as 10,000 copies of a subsequent Charles Brimmer album produced by Jones.
Charles Brimmer – Afflicted
With his labels getting a tenuous foothold in the New Orleans R&B marketplace, Jones struck a deal with Marshall Sehorn. In return for access to the Sea-Saint recording studio owned by Sehorn and Allen Toussaint, Jones turned over a percentage of his profits to Sehorn and gave him the rights to license his material.
Jones lost his best-selling artist in 1976 when he and Brimmer had a falling out and the singer moved to Los Angeles. However, the following year Brimmer's place would be taken by "The Tan Canary" of New Orleans, vocalist Johnny Adams. Adams hadn't recorded since 1975, when his longtime label, SSS of Nashville, went out of business. Adams hoped to get signed by a major or a national independent label, but after two non-promoted singles on Atlantic, he had no other offers. Jones had been after Adams to do some recording for him for some time, but as anyone who knew Adams knows, Johnny was never in a hurry to do anything. Finally, when gigs started to dry up, Adams realized he needed a new record on the jukeboxes to attract work. That's when Adams and Jones came to an agreement.
"Johnny was by far the greatest singer I ever heard," said Jones. "The first time I booked the studio, he didn't show up, which made me mad as hell (not a pleasant sight). I didn't think he'd show up the second time, so when he did, we just pulled songs out of the air. That's how the first single, "Stand By Me," and the "Stand By Me" album came about. Marshall made a deal with Chelsea to release them."
While the "Stand By Me" album (which might have sported the most uninspiring cover of the decade) and his early JB's singles were reworkings of soul classics, Adams' later work with Jones was far more imaginative. Jones scored his first hit with Adams with an interpretation of Conway Twitty's "After All the Good Is Gone." Originally released on Hep' Me in 1978, the single was a strong regional mover and caught the attention of Ariola. Ariola leased the single, coaxing it into the charts, and contracted Adams to do an album with Jones. The resulting LP, "After All the Good Is Gone," is arguably the best one that Adams ever recorded.
Johnny Adams -After all the Good Is Gone
Adams continued to record great singles for Jones that sold well around New Orleans, including the telling country lament "Hell Yes I Cheated," "Spanish Harlem," "Please Come Home For Christmas," "I Live My Whole Life At Night" and "Love Me Now." The latter song was leased to PAID Records and briefly charted. By the early 1980s, Jones had begun issuing 12-inch albums. While he had the market covered in regards to singles, his album releases were mostly woeful. Canned graphics, blurry photographs, distain for dictionaries and proofreaders (Johnny Adams was referred to as "the tan canery" on the back cover of his initial Hep' Me LP) and extremely short playing time were common on Jones' LPs.
Another consistent artist for Jones was Baton Rouge's Bobby Powell, who joined Hep' Me in 1978. Powell had a national hit with "C.C. Rider" in 1965 on the Baton Rouge label Whit after Jewel leased it. Powell recorded soul, blues, and gospel for Jones.
"Bobby was a sweet artist," said Jones. "He can deliver anything you ask him to. He does blues, but he also leads a choir at his church. We had a number of good records. I'm speaking of "Sweet Sixteen," "The Glory of Love," and "I'm a Fool For You."
Jones also recorded several New Orleans R&B veterans, including Chuck Carbo, Tommy Ridgley, Barbara George, Chris Kenner, and James Rivers. He also gave up-and-comers like the Las Vegas Connection, Walter Washington and Clem Easterling a chance to record.
However, by 1985, many of the local stations Jones depended on for airplay were in the hands of out-of-state owners and corporations that devised their own national playlists. This meant that the chance to get a local single played on the radio in New Orleans were slim to none. When airplay dried up, it became impossible to sell his releases to record stores and distributors. Once that happened, Jones could no longer afford to record and manufacture records.
"The stations in New Orleans forgot about us small record companies," fumed Jones. "It got impossible to make a profit from a local record."
After Adams left to record for Rounder, Jones more or less threw in the towel and began managing a small motel on the West Bank. By 1990, he had moved back to Mississippi, where he divided his time raising goats, producing the occasional record (often on himself) and working as a disc jockey on a small AM station under the guise of "Mr. Bo Bo." He briefly partnered with Ace/Avanti Records owner Johnny Vincent, but there wasn't a room in Mississippi big enough to hold both their egos and they eventually split. Jones also did some talent scouting and occasional record promotion, most notably for Malaco. His best find might have been discovering "The Love Doctor" and steering him to Mardi Gras Records, and he also released an early CD by Sir Charles Jones on the Hep' Me label.
An era in the independent R&B record business ended when Senator Jones died in his sleep on Nov. 5, 2008, at his home in Bolton, Miss.

Mr. Gardener and the Big Conference
JGS '20
Mr. Gardener walked right into the gray conference room. He stepped up to the podium, cleared his throat, tapped the microphone, and pied the face of an 8-year-old girl in the front row. Having successfully pied the girl in the face, Mr. Gardener walked back to the podium where he found the 2 pies underneath and sprinted to pie the girl again.
"Welcome to the Circus Clown Technical Demonstration Conference," said Mr. Gardener into his hands free microphone. "What I just did is a called a Triple Pie Bozo Slap, and I'll demonstrate it again on the next person who speaks."
"But sir," said an 80-year-old man in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank next to the crying 8 year-old-girl. "I think you are in the wrong room."
Mr. Gardener picked up his briefcase and calmly walked up to the man. He crouched down to the elderly man's height and opened the briefcase, demonstrating the 3 pies inside. Mr. Gardener quickly dumped the pies onto the floor and closed the now empty briefcase on the man's head.
"Clowns, clowns, clowns. Rule number one: Never do what you tell the audience you are going to do. What I just did is called is called an East Coast Briefcase Punch, and this time I'll actually demonstrate it on the next person who speaks."
"But we are not clowns," said Brendan, a 9-year-old boy in the second row.
Mr. Gardener launched the briefcase at Brendan's face.
"Once again, the East Coast Briefcase Punch."
"Sir!" said a teacher named Ms. Commons from the back of the room. "We are not circus clowns! You are in the wrong room!"
Mr. Gardener climbed over the crowd with his fire extinguisher, got to the back of the room, and emptied the whole can on Ms. Commons, acting as if it was so powerful as to knock him onto the ground for comedic effect.
"The '67 Shimmy."
"None of us are clowns," said Hank, a 90-year old man in the front, as quiet as a whisper.
"You mean to tell me," said Mr. Gardener, looking out upon the room full of elderly men and elementary school aged children, "that you are not formally trained circus clowns?"
Ms. Commons wiped fire extinguisher residue off of her mouth. "We are a 2nd grade class on a field trip to visit veterans. The people in this room are 2nd graders and veterans. This is the Cleveland Veterans Center."
Mr. Gardener packed up his briefcase, headed towards the door, and turned around, exclaiming, "I'm afraid I'm in the wrong Veterans Center, everybody."

Jordaan plays down World Cup strike fears
Posted byadmin July 9, 2009
Danny Jordaan, the chief executive of the 2010 World Cup organizing committee in South Africa, said in a statement on Wednesday that construction remains on schedule for the tournament despite large-scale strikes delaying building work at stadium sites.
About 70,000 workers have downed tools in a pay dispute after negotiations broke down earlier this week, with less than 12 months to go before the finals kick-off. The workers are reportedly seeking a 13 percent pay rise on their $300 average monthly wage, and there are growing worries that a prolonged strike could jeopardize key projects such as the centerpiece 94,000-seater Soccer City stadium in Johannesburg. Arenas in Cape Town and Durban are also facing a race against time to be finished by the deadline of December set by FIFA, world football's governing body, but Jordaan sought to ease concerns. "The construction workers have been the lifeblood of the 2010 FIFA World Cup project. Their hard work has ensured that we are on track to meet our deadlines and that our stadiums will be among the best in the world next year," Jordaan said in a press statement.

"It has always been the position of the organizing committee that we respect the right of construction workers on the stadiums to strike if they feel they have legitimate grievances. "This is a right enshrined in our country's constitution. We believe that the strike will be resolved as soon as possible and remain confident that the stadiums will be completed on time." Six entirely new stadiums are being built for the World Cup, while four are being modernized, along with a host of other infrastructure projects including a high-speed rail link, to help cope with the influx of nearly half a million football fans to South Africa next June. The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), which represents many of the construction workers who have stopped work, were in confident mood after an attempt by employers to ban the action was rejected by judges. Bhekani Ngcobo, the NUM's negotiator, said in a media release: "This strike action is going to continue until an offer that is required comes, even if that comes in 2011, which means we will have the longest strike in history that may qualify to be included in the Guinness Book of Records. "If they do not offer us 13 percent, we may demand 15 percent next week and 20 percent the following week. So, this matter is urgent," added Ngcobo. Despite the scale of the strikes, Danny Jordaan, the chief executive of the 2010 World Cup organizing committee in South Africa, remained confident all construction for the event remained on schedule. South Africa is the first African country to be awarded the World Cup finals and the main concerns have centered around crime and security as well as the readiness of the stadiums. But a successful hosting of the Confederations Cup last month, won by Brazil, helped silence critics and local organizers have remained steadfast in their belief that they will stage a successful World Cup.

Kasper Schmeichel shows his fondness for Falkirk as Denmark boss offers Christian Eriksen update
News of Falkirk's defeat at home to Queen's Park on Saturday might have cause despair among the Bairns faithful, but it also generated some disappointment in the Leicester City dressing-room.
By Alan Pattullo
1st Sep 2021, 4:55am
Kasper Schmeichel has revealed he still looks out for the results of the team he spent a short spell on loan at 14 years ago.
Now in the third tier, Falkirk were then a top-flight side under the charge of John Hughes. Schmeichel yesterday explained the debt of gratitude he owes the currently out of work former Hibs manager, who took a chance on signing him on loan from Manchester City. Schmeichel made his debut in a 1-0 win over Dunfermline in January 2007 and made 17 appearances in total for the Bairns before returning to his parent club.
He agreed to two further loan spells at Coventry City and Charlton before cutting ties with City and relaunching his career at Notts County. He has since won the Premier League title and FA Cup with Leicester City and has made 71 appearances to date for Denmark.
Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, in action for Falkirk against Hearts in 2007.
His latest cap will arrive in tonight's World Cup qualifier against Scotland, which prompted the 34-year-old to reminisce about his time at the Falkirk stadium under the man known as "Yogi". Schmeichel clearly still has a lot of affection for both Hughes and the club.
"Playing in Scotland was a massive part of my development," he said. "At that age to have a manager in John Hughes who trusted me to come and play in the Scottish Premier League for a side that wanted to play football, and the way the club was run, it was perfect for me at the time.
"I enjoyed my time up there," he added. "I met some amazing people who I am still in contact with. I am just very, very grateful that the club and the manager in particular took me under his wing and looked after me really well, the coaching staff, goalkeeper coach, everyone, they had a great part in my career.
"I still always look for Falkirk's results as with most of the clubs I played for. And I only look back with fond memories."
Schmeichel will not let any sentiment get in the way of the target of a victory in tonight's Group D clash.
"Nothing is a given in these types of games and Scotland have been in a good period these last few years," he said. "We know it will be a difficult game, as has been mentioned before. It is an opponent that doesn't suffer the type of beatings we would like to give them.
"They are always tight games and they have great quality all over the pitch. They have players at some big clubs and like I say, we are wary – but our focus is mainly on us. We are confident but we are full of respect."
Danish manager Kasper Hjulmand, meanwhile, has provided an update on the Christian Eriksen situation. The Denmark playmaker suffered a cardiac arrest in his side's opening Euro 2020 game in June and has been undergoing tests.
"We are in close contact with Christian," he said. "In the circumstances he is OK. Everything that comes out about him, it is Christian's words, it is Christian's pace.
"We follow him but we are close to Christian, the players are close to him. I am in contact with Christian. Everything that there is to say will come from Christian."

Blaha says there's limited evidence that vape juice flavors themselves are dangerous to individual users. But there are unknowns — research suggests that flavors, when combined with other vape juice ingredients and heated, can create new compounds that may be harmful.
In response to the investigation, Rhode Island banned the sale of flavored e-cigarettes in September of 2019. The prohibition is still in effect today. Advocates for the state's ban consistently claimed e-cigarette flavors were the main reason young people started vaping and posed a severe health risk to youth.

TRENTON, N.J. -- The sale of flavored vaping products is banned in New Jersey under legislation Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy signed Tuesday. Murphy signed the measure that moved to his desk amid a nationwide scare last year over mysterious illnesses linked to vaping.
Massachusetts is the only other state with a statewide ban on flavors, according to the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, though eight states have enacted emergency regulations to halt the sale of flavored vaping products.
Many New Jersey businesses have shut their doors due to the inability to sell flavored e-liquid. While there was initially a total vape ban in the state, the newer laws allow shipping to the customer. The items must be signed for, and must be Tobacco flavor only.
New York has been the most extreme when it comes to vaping practices, and their new law is no exception. All flavored E-liquids are currently banned in New Jersey. Only sales of Tobacco flavored liquids is allowed. Currently, it IS legal to ship products there.

EU and Britain agree to draft on post-Brexit ties
Fri, Nov 23, 2018 - 5:50 AM
THE European Union (EU) and Britain on Thursday agreed to a draft declaration laying out plans for "ambitious, broad, deep and flexible" relations after Brexit, setting the stage for the divorce to be finalised at a weekend summit.
EU Council president Donald Tusk said that the 26-page declaration, outlining how Britain will work with the bloc on trade, security, the environment and other issues, had been agreed "in principle" and would now be sent to the remaining 27 member states for approval.
The pound leapt by about one per cent against the US dollar and also firmed against the euro on news of the declaration, struck after through-the-night talks between British and EU negotiators.
Britain's embattled Prime Minister Theresa May hopes the declaration will convince sceptical lawmakers to approve her vision for the UK's departure from the bloc.

She was due to make a statement to Parliament later in the day.
"This is the right deal for the UK," she said after updating her Cabinet on the text. "The British people want this to be settled. They want a good deal that sets us on course for a brighter future. That deal is within our grasp and I am determined to deliver it."
A special summit of all 28 EU leaders to sign the final Brexit deal is planned for Sunday, with Mrs May set to travel to Brussels the night before to finalise preparations.
First, the texts must be cleared by a meeting of top EU diplomats - the summit's so-called "sherpas" - on Friday.
According to the political declaration, future ties will be wide-ranging, covering economic cooperation, law enforcement and criminal justice, foreign policy, security and defence.
In an update of the withdrawal agreement, both sides have agreed that the post-Brexit transition period may be extended from its current end date of Dec 31, 2020 "for up to one or two years".
The transition period is designed to allow governments and businesses to adjust to a new relationship after more than four decades of close ties.
Crucially, both sides note their "determination to replace the backstop solution on Northern Ireland by a subsequent agreement".
But the declaration does not deal with the vexed issues of fishing and Gibraltar, the British territory that sits on an outcrop of southern Spain. AFP

Listen: Nathan & Jessie - "You're the Star"
April 19, 2019 by Joshua Pickard in Track Spotlight
Southern California duo Nathan & Jessie possess a distinct worldview – one heavily influenced by their wide-ranging travels and the idea that music doesn't have to follow prescribed guidelines or adhere to certain rhythmic specificities for its emotional weight to knock the breath from your lungs. Singing fluently in 3 languages, they create and wield a mesmerizing blend of gypsy folk, jazz and blues aesthetics, opting to explore and adapt a multitude of musical influences in their search for earnest connections and experiences with their audiences.
From dive bars in California to rowdy stages in New Orleans and subways in New York City (and other places all over the globe), they've developed a sound which is built from a compendium of inspirations and is conversant and always welcoming. They released their debut record, "That'll Never Be Me," in 2018 and are currently gearing up for their new album, "You're the Star," which is set to come out May 17. Mostly constructed from late night sessions while on tour, it became a way for them to comfort each other while dealing with long drives and tired bodies.
On the title track from their forthcoming record, Nathan & Jessie wander through a distinctly Parisian environment, an openhearted space filled with blissful accordion, clean guitar rhythms and gorgeous harmonies which sashay through a loping percussive shuffle. Intimate and drawn from deep within their collective affections, the song is a warm and inviting balance of honest sentiment and emotional resonance. It feels like it was pulled from a dream, and not just any dream – the kind of dream where you're not sure if you're still asleep or awake but which feels completely real in that moment.

Q: How to 'jump' to a method in Java without linking back to where it was called from? I call a method from my main class, and when a particular condition is met, I have that method call itself with updated parameters. When I have the method call itself, I don't need it to come back to where it was called from. In other words, there's no need to have a "stack" of method calls - each method call can take the place of the previous method's call on the stack.
To make my point clearer, when using MIPS assembly language, we use jump (j) and jump-and-link (jal). I want my method call to be like a jump and not worry about coming back to its caller. I figure this might save some time/improve performance.
This is the relevant section of my code:
if (temp.contains(names[index]))
{
    System.out.println(names[index]);
    if (index < 13)
    {
        index++;
    }
    parse(i, bigLine, index);
}

This conditional block is in my parse method and I am calling parse from itself but I don't want it to come back to the caller. Would really appreciate any ideas on how to do this.

A: That's called tail recursion optimization, and no, Java doesn't support it. Other JVM languages (such as Scala) do, but in plain Java, if you need this optimization, you need to  do it by hand, by using iteration instead of recursion. In your case, it would look something like:
while (index < 13 && temp.contains(names[index])) {
    System.out.println(names[index]);
    i++;
}

A: As was already told, this isn't possible in Java. You don't have a goto, so your only possibility is to do method calls and that's where the stack comes into play.
But don't worry, you're also completely wrong in your "I figure this might improve performance" guess. In Java, we do optimization the correct way: analyze the performance, identify the bottlenecks and remove or bypass those bottlenecks. That way you don't have to "figure" anything, you'll have cold hard facts to show you what you need to do.
I recommend that if you intend to keep on working with Java, you don't try to project other programming languages onto it. This is especially the case with assembly language, although you might like to work with the bytecode itself, if you're looking to go that low level.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) - The new GOP tax reform bill could deal another blow to cash-strapped Puerto Rico as it recovers from the devastating impact of Hurricane Maria.
Pharmaceutical businesses operating in Puerto Rico employed about 90,000 workers on the island before the storm hit. Experts say those firms will have to pay this tax if they have licenses or patents based in Puerto Rico. Microsoft also has a sizable operation on the island, but the company declined to say if any patents are held by their subsidiary in Puerto Rico.

Twelve Caesars: Images of Power from the Ancient World to the Modern
byMary Beard
Twelve Caesars: Images of Power from the Ancient World to the Modern quantity
From the bestselling author of SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome, the fascinating story of how images of Roman autocrats have influenced art, culture, and the representation of power for more than 2,000 years
What does the face of power look like? Who gets commemorated in art and why? And how do we react to statues of politicians we deplore? In this book–against a background of today's "sculpture wars"–Mary Beard tells the story of how for more than two millennia portraits of the rich, powerful, and famous in the western world have been shaped by the image of Roman emperors, especially the "Twelve Caesars," from the ruthless Julius Caesar to the fly-torturing Domitian. Twelve Caesars asks why these murderous autocrats have loomed so large in art from antiquity and the Renaissance to today, when hapless leaders are still caricatured as Neros fiddling while Rome burns.
Beginning with the importance of imperial portraits in Roman politics, this richly illustrated book offers a tour through 2,000 years of art and cultural history, presenting a fresh look at works by artists from Memling and Mantegna to the nineteenth-century American sculptor Edmonia Lewis, as well as by generations of weavers, cabinetmakers, silversmiths, printers, and ceramicists. Rather than a story of a simple repetition of stable, blandly conservative images of imperial men and women, Twelve Caesars is an unexpected tale of changing identities, clueless or deliberate misidentifications, fakes, and often ambivalent representations of authority.
From Beard's reconstruction of Titian's extraordinary lost Room of the Emperors to her reinterpretation of Henry VIII's famous Caesarian tapestries, Twelve Caesars includes fascinating detective work and offers a gripping story of some of the most challenging and disturbing portraits of power ever created.
Published in association with the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC
We talk about Beard's book, out later this year, on images of the Roman emperors from the ancient world to now. It will have that distinctive focus of hers: not just who the emperors were and what they did, but how we think about them. In her work, the consumption of classical culture is as revealing as the culture itself.–-Josh Spero, Financial Times

Account Number & Sort Code — An Awful Warning
Tags: account number, BBC, cheque details, Getty Images, HSBC, Jeremy Clarkson, sort code
Paying by bank transfer is much easier than paying by cheque, which is why so many companies now include their bank details — account number and sort code — on their invoices.
That's reasonable when the recipient is a private individual or another company. It's not so good when they are published on the fifth biggest website in the country.
To illustrate an article "Bank cheques to be cleared within a day" on their website last Wednesday the BBC used a photograph of a handwritten HSBC cheque, clearly showing a company's account number and sort code details.
The trouble was they were ours — fotoLibra.com's.
This was a cheque we'd paid to one of our contributors in 2012, and to add aggravation to outrage she photographed it and uploaded it to Getty Images, who then sold it to the BBC, complete with our clearly visible bank details.
A photograph of a fotoLibra contributor's cheque, sold to the BBC by Getty. We have blurred out our bank sort code and account number
James Cliffe, HSBC's Head of Business Banking, is no call centre drudge and he took the issue sufficiently seriously to call me direct. HSBC had seen the article shortly after it appeared and immediately called the BBC to complain. The photograph was replaced within the hour.
The replacement photograph
An account number and sort code is all an unscrupulous individual needs to set up a standing order or direct debit, as Jeremy Clarkson found to his cost when he published his bank details in the belief they only worked one way. He found he was suddenly paying out a £500 direct debit to the charity Diabetes UK.
Clarkson revealed his account numbers after rubbishing the furore over the theft of 25 million people's personal details. He wanted to prove the story was a fuss about nothing. "The bank cannot find out who did this because of the Data Protection Act and they cannot stop it from happening again," sighed Clarkson. "I was wrong and I have been punished for my mistake."
We hold the BBC and Getty Images equally responsible. We expect they know (Getty, that is) they've done wrong because there's no trace of that image on their website today.
We still don't know what damage we may suffer.
But if HSBC's big guns are concerned, then we are concerned.

As a yearly habit, I and my friends go somewhere in the Philippines during the summer months. Last 2014 we marked Coron, Palawan and I still can't forget my wonderful experiences on the island. This time we planned to hit El Nido and Puerto Princesa, Palawan.
It all started with a spotted promo airfare bound for Puerto Princesa. Without hesitation, we booked the flight. We scheduled our trip on off-peak season dates around early June so that the place will be less crowded. It was a 1-week trip on a budget (10K PHP).
The first day of our trip was all about getting to El Nido from Cebu.
With a heart full of excitement and anticipation, we boarded on our scheduled flight. We arrived at Puerto Princesa airport around 2:40 PM with a gloomy weather greeting us. With no time to waste, we then hurried on the streets and looked for a van or bus to take us to El Nido. We took a van since it was the first option to meet us right outside the airport.
A land trip from Puerto Princesa to El Nido usually takes around 5-6 hours depending on your speed. Buses usually have more stop-overs but cost less than vans. Secure cash before heading to El Nido. ATM machines and banks are rare to find in El Nido.
It was raining hard while we were on the road to El Nido, thus slowing our pace which eventually took us more than 6 hours to get to El Nido. Luckily we did a short snack break in one of the stop-overs.
Arrived late and exhausted, we headed straight to our contact inn (Northern Hope). The inn just looks like a private house with several spare rooms for guests. Right after we settled our things, we then looked for a place to have dinner. There are lots of restaurants near the beach area with wide variety of dishes. Traveling on a budget forced us to settle for a place that offers budget-friendly meals.
There are plenty of shops offering tour packages. Usually, there are 5 different packages. Each package covers at least 5-6 attraction spots with lunch meals for around 1.5K php per person. Tour rates will really eat the most portion of your money. Luckily, the caretaker of the inn offered us a better deal. Since the peak season has started to fade, she arranged us a special tour that would cover all the best attractions of the 5 packages for just 3.5K PHP per person. We just shortened our staying time on each attraction. The whole tour was divided into 2 days.
Day 2: The Start of Fun!
The start of the tour!
The motor boat then picked us from the inn by 9 AM. Due to excitement, I forgot to bring my earplugs. Regardless, we pushed through with the tour. For those who don't know, I got my left eardrum perforated from a sport.
El Nido is blessed with multiple enchanting islands.
Matinloc Island – Here you can dive into the deep waters and see colorful corals.
We enjoyed so much that, without noticing, we returned to the main island with trails of sun kisses on our skin. The sunset view by the beach is stunning and inspiring while the sound of the waves gave me the feeling of serenity.
Day 3: The Fun Never Stops!
Start the second day of the tour!
As for the last day of our El Nido stay, we planned to climb the famous Taraw Peak. As the locals say, climbing Taraw Peak is challenging due to its steepness and piercingly rocky trail; that climbing when the trail is wet is not advised. Though the climb may be difficult, a reward of great view awaits at the peak especially during sunrise.
Alas! It rained the night before, so we were not able to climb. Nevertheless, we continued with the other destinations. To save money, we checked out from the inn, and just brought with us our things and made a deal with the van driver to directly bring us to Puerto Princesa right after we hit the day's last destination.
While heading to the city, we have no idea where to stay for the night. We need a nice and clean place with a budget friendly rate. The driver was kind enough to assist us and suggested some place where we can stay. He brought us to different inns and hotels that fit our need. After the tiring hunt for a place to stay, we finally agreed and settled in a cheap hotel, House of Big Brother. Though the rate didn't quite fit within our budget, we are already eager to see clean beds and nice showers so we took it. The place was quite clean and modern and just a walk away from the City Hall.
We strolled around the city after we had our shower. We were looking for a place to eat and luckily we found a famous fast food shop and had our dinner there. Upon going back to the hotel, we decided to maximize our time by looking for another inn which will fit with our budget. Luckily we saw this inn, Princess Armicha Pension House, offering a good rate and just a walk away from the inn we are staying. We then made an arrangement with the receptionist and decided to stay there for the rest of our days in Puerto Princesa.
Follow through our next day adventure.


Please add a "CALLOUT" that has a place for text on one side and a single line projecting out of it to the right/left/up/down (almost like an ice-pick). This would be useful for spreadsheet captures where you need to highlight the fact that something is missing, and where you can position the line in between the rows (etc.) where it should be found. Right now I have to use callout arrows with text. But they are a little cumbersome to get exactly in the right place and make it clear what you mean to say.
Yes. But if you have to change the size of the arrow base every time then it's just as cumbersome as using the arrow.
True. You got my vote. I've often wondered whether there's a case for a different border type too. Something like this? What do you think?

"Recently, we had an event that needed 15 sports jerseys, and four photographs framed in a matter of three days on the week of Thanksgiving. John from Framed in Time not only got us all of our items in time for the event,but they looked absolutely amazing! You can tell each piece was well thought out with the best attention to detail I've ever seen. For example, we had a golf scorecard that was a part of our auction that needed framing and John took the time to frame it with turf to give the piecean extra edge and incredible detail. Even with a seemingly impossible task given to them, Framed in Time gave us an overwhelmingly positive experience with extraordinary results".
We recently framed 25 oil portraits of past presidents from Boston College. Framed in Time was carefully selected to handle this very important project, which featured oil paintings up to 150 years old. Special attention was given to all aspects of framing, storing and delivering these portraits over a nine month period. These pictures show the history, perseverance, people and stories of this great institution. They are installed in Gasson Hall.

Ryan Giggs will face retrial for coercive control charges and for 'headbutting' girlfriend Kate Greville
48-year-old former Wales manager Ryan Giggs will go on trial next year for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend.
Asides being accused of controlling and having a coercive behaviour towards his ex Kate Greville, 36, he is also accused of assaulting Ms Greville's younger sister Emma on the same night he reportedly assaulted Ms Greville in November 2020. The alleged assaults took place at the couple's home in Worsley, Greater Manchester.
This is coming after jurors at Manchester Crown Court were unable to reach a verdict after a four-week trial which finished last month.
At a mention hearing this morning, which Giggs did not attend but was represented by a barrister, the CPS confirmed it wanted a retrial.
Prosecutor Peter Wright QC said:
"The matter was listed for the Crown to indicate whether they sought a retrial in respect of Mr Giggs.
"We do seek a retrial in respect of Mr Giggs. The matter has been considered at a senior level within the CPS and also the willingness of the complainant to give evidence again, although that is not determinative of the matter, has also been canvassed and there is no indication to the contrary as far as that's concerned."
The Manchester United legend has denied all charges and will next appear in court on July 31 for the trial.
Giggs won 64 caps for Wales and had a lengthy playing career with Manchester United, winning 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League trophies, four FA Cups and three League Cups.
He is also a co-owner of League Two side Salford City.

The quality of programs varies depending on how much you are willing to spend on them. There are plenty of free programs available from the internet. Although basic in presentation, these do enough to give an idea of what a garden will look like. As you go up in monetary cost, the programs quality and options increase. Some of the most advanced programs will even be able to calculate the cost of your gardening ideas.


He raised up for them David as king, to whom also He gave testimony and said, "I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will."
There can be no greater testimony given than this: A man or woman after God's own heart. David was Israel's greatest king, a young shepherd who through obedience and a repentant heart rose to such prominence. I do not believe that God has stopped looking for such to give this testimony. God is not looking for perfection in man; He has already found that in His son. He is looking for a people who, like David, are willing to humble themselves and serve. God is looking for those who unashamedly worship Him, as David worshipped Him. He is looking for someone who is quick to confess his or her sin and turn from that sin, as David turned from his. He is not necessarily looking for a new king or great warrior. He is looking for an obedient shepherd who is willing to submit to authority and face life's giants. God is looking for a man after His own heart.

About Casey
Why Casey
Hear It From Casey
CASEY'S BELIEFS & PLATFORM
Small Government
market based economics
Casey knows what has made the US the greatest country in the world is that our nation was founded on the fundamental principle that government will get out of the way and let the People determine their destiny. Without a bloated government bureaucracy standing in the way, our country progressed economically and as a populace at unprecedented rates, leading the world in technology, innovation, and economic growth. In recent years, the liberal agenda has been afforded the opportunity to take root in our nation, and the growth of federal government is ballooning, causing us to fall behind and lose our position as the global leader. On top of that, the size of the tax burden on the people is growing right along with the size of government, chipping away at our bottom line and our ability to provide for our families. Casey wants to decrease the size of our government, lower our tax needs, and get our government's unsustainable spending back under control.
Taking care of our country starts with us taking care of ourselves. Casey believes it is not the government's role to ensure we are happy by providing for our every need (at tax payer expense, of course), but rather, it is the government's role to ensure we have the right to pursue happiness for ourselves. With that right comes the obligation to be responsible for our own destiny.
Government has no business in business. The market, not paper-pushing bureaucrats, should decide the supply/demand needs, price of goods and services, and the acceptable quality of those goods and services. People have been voting with their dollars for centuries. When government gets in the way, and does not let the market decide for itself, economic growth is lost, innovation is stifled, the quality of goods and services suffer, and the markets become stagnant. Government interference serves to disincentivize the American entrepreneurial spirit. Ever since the infamous Wheat Case under Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration, the federal government has used the Commerce Clause as an excuse to get its claws into our markets. Congress must cut those claws back, and Casey knows how to do it
Casey's staunchly Republican dad taught Casey at an early age that being a republican isn't easy. It's more difficult than the liberal theories of government because it creates more individual obligation. Casey believes that if you're going to advocate for lower taxes, smaller government, fewer tax-payer funded programs, then you have an obligation to serve your community to fill the voids that Liberals want to fill with tax dollars and inefficient, low quality government service. As part of those beliefs, Casey has a long history of serving his community, including being on the team that led the nation in fundraising for March of Dimes for childhood disease research, volunteering for Meals on Wheels, hurricane disaster relief, and for the past six years, Casey has been a Big Brother in the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program. Casey was also a part of the founding team of North Texas Honor Flight, taking World War II veterans to Washington, D.C. in order for them to see their memorial and visit current service men and women at Walter Reed Military Hospital. Community service is part of what defines Casey and has always been a significant part of his life, and is a responsibility he takes seriously as a Republican.
the 2nd amendment
Casey knows it's no coincidence that the founding fathers placed the "right of the people to keep and bear Arms," near the very top of our Bill of Rights. He also knows how plainly the Constitution puts it when it goes on to say this right "shall not be infringed." This is one of our fundamental, essential rights, and Casey will always fight to ensure this right is protected. Growing up in a family that loved hunting and the outdoors, and as someone who has had his license to carry for almost 20 years, Casey knows the importance this right plays in our society. Most importantly, Casey knows this right is essential to our democracy. The right of the people to bear arms allows for the people to guard themselves against tyranny. Casey will always fight to ensure this essential right "shall not be infringed" on his watch.
At the age of 13, Casey started his first job, cutting grass after school for his older brother's successful landscaping business. Since that day, Casey has never stopped working. In high school, Casey completed training and obtained his certification as an emergency medical technician. He used these credentials to work on the front lines of healthcare in one of the busiest emergency departments in North Texas. Even while obtaining his degree from Texas A&M, Casey continued to work weekends in the emergency department. During law school, while most students were not working so they could focus solely on school, Casey was caring for young patients in the emergency department of St. Louis Children's Hospital. He continued working as an EMT until after passing the Texas Bar Exam and being hired as an attorney with his current firm. As a young lawyer, Casey's work ethic was immediately recognized and he built the reputation of "no one will out-work Casey Campbell." In line with this belief, part of Casey's work ethic includes a longstanding commitment to physical and mental health through a regimented exercise program. His own commitment to this healthy lifestyle and his background of performing even under the most intense situations, ensures he has the energy, drive, and fortitude to get the job done, and get it done right.
Our federal governmental bodies have progressively become more and more dismissive of our founding principle of separation of powers. From presidents legislating through executive orders, Congress taking on the role of enforcing laws (what should be a limited function of the executive branch), and our judicial activist writing new laws from the bench, our government has slowly dismantled our system of separation of powers and checks and balances. This has allowed government to expand to a suffocating degree, and has robbed state and local governments of their authority. Casey wants to reign in our power hungry federal branches and knows how to do it through proper policy development. We the people don't need to be nationally regulated; it is our expanding federal government who needs more regulation. When he gets to Washington, returning our system back to its limitations is among his top priorities.

At first I thought this Internet dating thing might be fun. After all, I'm 47, there are no single folks in my church and my employer has a no-dating rule. Where else would I meet people? But it has turned out to be pretty awful.
In one week on Match.com I met two convicted felons -- one who just got out of prison -- two serious substance abusers, and a lot of guys who feel the yardstick of success is measured in motorcycles.
I thought the thing to do was to let my Internet dating subscription expire, to let it die a natural death before I met one more "non-smoker" who hasn't "quite kicked the habit yet."
Then I saw the Match.com debit on my bank draft. What was this? It wasn't even authorized.
It turns out once they have your bank information, the good folks at Match.com thoughtfully re-enroll you every year without your permission unless you head them off and send a notice of resignation. Resignation? How about a white flag? Someone let me off of this thing!

Princess Elizabeth Asquith Bibesco
Elizabeth, Princess Bibesco née Elizabeth Asquith (26 February 1897 - 7 April 1945) was an English writer, active between 1921 and 1940
"I have made a great discovery. What I love belongs to me. Not the chairs and tables in my house, but the masterpieces of the world. It is only a question of loving them enough."
© Quotes.net


Deja vu? I know, I know, if you have been following my bird series then you know I already did a goldfinch. In fact, I can save you on more dialogue by referring you to POST #88 – AMERICAN GOLDFINCH to learn my thoughts and ideas on goldfinches.
So why did I do another you ask?
Didn't really seem to fit in. There is nothing wrong with it, I just felt like the bird wasn't as much of a highlight as I would have liked and since I have 273 days left of my CREATIVITY CHALLENGE. Why not do it again if I so chose to?
Yeah, that's why, plain and simple. I wanted to.
Now are there any opinions from the nut gallery as to which one they like better?
I'm all alone here, so since I'm at it, I will ask for a little feedback on the crayon with watercolor technique. How does it come off? Polished or too cartoon-like?
I'll tell you why I've been using this medium for the past 8 some-odd days. It is really teaching me discipline and simplicity. In order to use the thick crayons, I really have to bring my drawing down to as few lines as possible. Streamlining you'd might say. When you force yourself to streamline you become very deliberate which I think shows a little more confidence in your work. I think as I heavily consider each line, the images are getting stronger and stronger. I'm figuring out which lines to create in crayon and which to just leave to the paint. I will move on to something else for a while I'm sure, but I will take the precision with me.
BTW. During this bird series I changed a few of my materials. The thick rectangle Stockmar crayons were too cumbersome when trying to create in small sizes.
So I went to my trusted source: SOUTH COUNTY ART SUPPLY and asked Andrea Peitsch, the owner, what I could do about it. She found me The Faber-Castell 24 count Beeswax crayons. They are a high quality crayon, they come in stick form, are smooth and the color selection is terrific. Thank you South County Art Supply!!!
Also as a recommendation from Andrea, I converted from Windsor-Newton watercolors to M. Graham watercolors. The prices are a little lower and the quantities are larger. So far, I am really happy with their product. There were a few pigments I couldn't find, so I will stick to Windsor Newton for those, but for the amount of paint I am going through these days, it suits me fine to find a high quality watercolor in larger quantities.
I'm so glad to have them in town!
I think your new Goldfinch takes centre stage a little more as the main focus and so maybe why that's why you might feel this one fits in with your Bird group you have painted so far Mary .
You got it. I'm going to redo the robin too!
