Gerald Joseph "Gerry" Mulligan (April 6, 1927 - January 20, 1996) was an American jazz saxophonist, clarinetist, composer and arranger. Though Mulligan is primarily known as one of the leading baritone saxophonists in jazz history - playing the instrument with a light and airy tone in the era of cool jazz - he was also a notable arranger, working with Claude Thornhill, Miles Davis, Stan Kenton, and others. Mulligan's pianoless quartet of the early 1950s with trumpeter Chet Baker is still regarded as one of the more important cool jazz groups. Mulligan was also a skilled pianist and played several other reed instruments. Mulligan reportedly had a relationship with actress Judy Holliday until she died in 1965, and with actress Sandy Dennis from 1965 until they broke up in 1976.
Gerry Mulligan was born in Queens Village, Queens, New York, the son of George and Louise Mulligan. His father was a Wilmington, Delaware native of Irish descent; his mother a Philadelphia native of half Irish and half German descent. Gerry was the last of four sons: George, Phil, Don and Gerry.
George Mulligan's career as an engineer necessitated frequent moves through numerous cities. When Gerry was less than a year old, the family moved to Marion, Ohio, where his father accepted a job with the Marion Power Shovel Company.
With the demands of a large home and four young boys to raise, Mulligan's mother hired an African-American nanny named Lily Rose, who became especially fond of the youngest Mulligan. As he became older, Mulligan began spending time at Rose's house and was especially amused by Rose's player piano, which Mulligan later recalled as having rolls by numerous players, including Fats Waller. Black musicians sometimes came through town, and because many motels wouldn't take them, they often had to stay at homes within the black community. The young Mulligan occasionally met such musicians staying at Rose's home.
The family's moves continued with stops in southern New Jersey (where Mulligan lived with his maternal grandmother), Chicago, Illinois, and Kalamazoo, Michigan, where Mulligan lived for three years and attended Catholic school. When the school moved into a new building and established music courses, Mulligan decided to play clarinet in the school's nascent orchestra. Mulligan made an attempt at arranging with the Richard Rodgers song "Lover", but the arrangement was seized prior to its first reading by an overzealous nun who was taken aback by the title on the arrangement.
When Gerry Mulligan was 14, his family moved to Detroit and then to Reading, Pennsylvania. While in Reading, Mulligan began studying clarinet with dance-band musician Sammy Correnti, who also encouraged Mulligan's interest in arranging. Mulligan also began playing saxophone professionally in dance bands in Philadelphia, an hour and a half or so away. Mulligan also studied the blues with Corey Lynn Carter at this point.
The Mulligan family next moved to Philadelphia, where Gerry attended the West Philadelphia Catholic High School for Boys and organized a school big band, for which he also wrote arrangements. When Mulligan was sixteen, he approached Johnny Warrington at local radio station WCAU about writing arrangements for the station's house band. Warrington was impressed and began buying Mulligan's arrangements.
Mulligan dropped out of high school during his senior year to pursue work with a touring band. He contacted bandleader Tommy Tucker when Tucker was visiting Philadelphia's Earle Theatre. While Tucker did not need an additional reedman, he was looking for an arranger and Mulligan was hired at $100 a week to do two or three arrangements a week (including all copying). At the conclusion of Mulligan's three-month contract, Tucker told Mulligan that he should move on to another band that was a little less "tame". Mulligan went back to Philadelphia and began writing for Elliot Lawrence, a pianist and composer who had taken over for Warrington as the band leader at WCAU.
Mulligan moved to New York City in January 1946 and joined the arranging staff on Gene Krupa's bop-tinged band. Notable arrangements of Mulligan's work with Krupa include "Birdhouse", "Disc Jockey Jump" and an arrangement of "How High the Moon" that quoted Charlie Parker's "Ornithology" as a countermelody.
Mulligan next began arranging for the Claude Thornhill Orchestra, occasionally sitting in as a member of the reed section. Thornhill's arranging staff included Gil Evans, whom Mulligan had met while working with the Krupa band. Mulligan eventually began living with Evans, at the time that Evans' apartment on West 55th Street became a regular hangout for a number of jazz musicians working on creating a new jazz idiom.
In September 1948, Miles Davis formed a nine-piece band that featured arrangements by Mulligan, Evans and John Lewis. The band initially consisted of Davis on trumpet, Mulligan on baritone saxophone, trombonist Mike Zwerin, alto saxophonist Lee Konitz, Junior Collins on French horn, tubist Bill Barber, pianist John Lewis, bassist Al McKibbon and drummer Max Roach.
The band only played a handful of live performances (a two week engagement at the Royal Roost jazz club and two nights at the Clique Club). However, over the next couple of years, Davis reformed the nonet on three occasions to record twelve pieces for release as singles. These were eventually compiled on a Capitol Records album, titled Birth of the Cool. Mulligan wrote and arranged three of the tunes recorded ("Rocker," "Venus de Milo," and "Jeru," the latter named after himself), and arranged a further three ("Deception," "Godchild," and "Darn That Dream").
He was also (with Davis, Konitz and Barber) one of only four musicians who played on all the recordings. Despite the chilly reception by audiences of 1949, the Davis nonet has been judged by history as one of the most influential groups in jazz history, creating a sound that, despite its East Coast origins, became known as West Coast Jazz.
During his period of occasional work with the Davis nonet between 1949 and 1951, Mulligan also regularly performed with and arranged for trombonist Kai Winding. Mulligan's composition "Elevation" and his arrangement of "Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea" were recorded by Mulligan's old boss, Elliott Lawrence. This brought Mulligan additional recognition. Mulligan also arranged for and recorded with bands led by Georgie Auld and Chubby Jackson.
In September, 1951, Mulligan recorded the first album under his own name, Mulligan Plays Mulligan. By this point, he had mastered a melodic and linear playing style, inspired by Lester Young, that he would retain for the rest of his career.
In the spring of 1952, Mulligan became more desperate for remunerative employment and headed west to Los Angeles with his girlfriend, pianist Gail Madden. Through an acquaintance with arranger Bob Graettinger, Mulligan started writing arrangements for Stan Kenton's Orchestra. While most of Mulligan's work for Kenton were pedestrian arrangements that Kenton needed to fill out money-making dance performances, Mulligan was able to throw in some more substantial original works along the way. His compositions "Walking Shoes" and "Young Blood" stand out as embodiments of the contrapuntal style that became Mulligan's signature. His sound or tone (timbre) was likened to a tweed cloth.
While arranging for Kenton, Mulligan began performing on off-nights at The Haig, a small jazz club on Wilshire Boulevard at Kenmore Street. During the Monday night jam sessions, a young trumpeter named Chet Baker began sitting in with Mulligan. Mulligan and Baker began recording together, although they were unsatisfied with the results. Around that time, vibraphonist Red Norvo's trio began headlining at The Haig, thus leaving no need to keep the grand piano that had been brought in for Erroll Garner's stay at the club.
Faced with a dilemma of what to do for a rhythm section, Mulligan decided to build on earlier experiments and perform as a pianoless quartet with Baker on trumpet, Bob Whitlock on bass and Chico Hamilton on drums (later Mulligan himself would occasionally double on piano). Baker's melodic style fit well with Mulligan's, leading them to create improvised contrapuntal textures free from the rigid confines of a piano-enforced chordal structure. While novel at the time in sound and style, this ethos of contrapuntal group improvisation hearkened back to the formative days of jazz. Despite their very different backgrounds, Mulligan a classically-trained New Yorker and Baker from Oklahoma and a much more instinctive player, they had an almost psychic rapport and Mulligan later remarked that, "I had never experienced anything like that before and not really since." Their dates at the Haig became sell-outs and the recordings they made in the fall of 1952 became major sellers that led to significant acclaim for Mulligan and Baker.
This fortuitous collaboration came to an abrupt end with Mulligan's arrest on narcotics charges in mid-1953 that led to six months at Sheriff's Honor Farm. Both Mulligan and Baker had, like their peers, become heroin addicts. However, while Mulligan was in prison, Baker transformed his lyrical trumpet style, gentle tenor voice and matinee-idol looks into independent stardom. Thus when upon his release Mulligan attempted to rehire Baker, the trumpeter declined the offer for financial reasons. They did briefly reunite at the 1955 Newport Jazz Festival and would occasionally get together for performances and recordings up through a 1974 performance at Carnegie Hall. But in later years their relationship became strained as Mulligan, with considerable effort, would manage to kick his habit, while Baker's addiction would bedevil him professionally and personally almost constantly until his death in 1988.
Mulligan continued the quartet format with valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer replacing Baker, although Mulligan and Brookmeyer both occasionally played piano. This quartet structure remained the core of Mulligan's groups throughout the rest of the 1950s with sporadic personnel changes and expansions of the group with trumpeters Jon Eardley and Art Farmer, saxophonists Zoot Sims, Al Cohn and Lee Konitz, and vocalist Annie Ross. In 1957, Mulligan and his wife, Arlyne Brown Mulligan (daughter of composer Lew Brown), had a son, Reed Brown Mulligan.
Mulligan also studied Piano with Suezenne Fordham, who was a member of the inner circle of Jazz players in NY. She was sought out by jazz musicians of the era to coach them to improve their piano technique. She and Mulligan also had a personal relationship from 1966 through 1972.
Mulligan also performed as a soloist or sideman (often in festival settings) with a veritable Who's Who of late 50s jazz artists: Paul Desmond, Duke Ellington, Ben Webster, Johnny Hodges, Jimmy Witherspoon, André Previn, Billie Holiday, Marian McPartland, Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Stan Getz, Thelonious Monk, Fletcher Henderson, Manny Albam, Quincy Jones, Kai Winding, Miles Davis, and Dave Brubeck. Mulligan appears in Art Kane's celebrated A Great Day in Harlem portrait of 57 major jazz musicians taken in August 1958.
Mulligan formed his first "Concert Jazz Band" in the Spring of 1960. Partly an attempt to revisit the ornate arrangements of big band music in a smaller setting, the band varied in size and personnel, with the core group being six brass, five reeds (including Mulligan) and a pianoless two-piece rhythm section. The membership included (at various times, among others): trumpeters Conte Candoli, Nick Travis, Clark Terry, Don Ferrara, Al Derisi, Thad Jones and Doc Severinsen, saxophonists Zoot Sims Jim Reider, Gene Allen, Bobby Donovan, Phil Woods and Gene Quill, trombonists Willie Dennis, Alan Raph and Bob Brookmeyer, drummers Mel Lewis and Gus Johnson, and bassists Buddy Clark and Bill Crow. The band also recorded an album of songs sung by Gerry's close friend Judy Holliday in 1961. The band toured and recorded extensively through the end of 1964, ultimately producing five albums for Verve records.
Mulligan resumed work with small groups in 1962 and appeared with other groups sporadically (notably in festival situations). Mulligan would continue to work intermittently in small group settings until the end of his life, although performing dates started to become more infrequent during the mid '60s. After Dave Brubeck's quartet broke up in 1967, Mulligan began appearing regularly with Brubeck as the "Gerry Mulligan / Dave Brubeck Quartet" through 1973. Thereafter, Mulligan and Brubeck would work together sporadically until the final year of Mulligan's life.
In 1971, Mulligan created his most significant work for big band in over a decade for the album The Age of Steam. At various times in the 70's he performed with Charles Mingus. The Concert Jazz Band was "reformed" in 1978 and toured at various times through the '80s.
Mulligan, like many jazz musicians of his era, occasionally recorded with strings. Notable dates include 1957 recordings with Vinnie Burke's String Jazz Quartet, a 1959 orchestra album with André Previn and a 1965 album of the Gerry Mulligan Quintet and Strings. In 1974, Mulligan collaborated with famed Argentine musician Ástor Piazzolla. While in Milan for the recording sessions, Mulligan met his future wife, Countess Franca Rota Borghini Baldovinetti, a freelance photojournalist and reporter. In 1975, Mulligan recorded a string album with Italian composer Enrico Intra.
Mulligan's more serious work with orchestra began in May 1970 with a performance of Dave Brubeck's oratorio, The Light in the Wilderness with Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony.
In the 1970s and 1980s, Mulligan worked to build and promote a repertoire of baritone saxophone music for orchestra. In 1973, Mulligan commissioned composer Frank Proto to write a Saxophone Concerto that was premiered with the Cincinnati Symphony. In 1977, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation commissioned Harry Freedman to write the saxophone concerto Celebration which was performed by Mulligan with the CBC Symphony. In 1982, Zubin Mehta invited Mulligan to play soprano saxophone in a New York Philharmonic performance of Ravel's Bolero.
In 1984, Mulligan commissioned Harry Freedman to write The Sax Chronicles which was an arrangement of some of Mulligan's melodies in pastiche styles. In April of that year, Mulligan was a soloist with the New American Orchestra in Los Angeles for the premier of Patrick Williams' Spring Wings.
In June 1984, Mulligan completed and performed his first orchestral commission, Entente for Baritone Saxophone and Orchestra, with the Filarmonia Venetia. In October, Mulligan performed Entente and The Sax Chronicles with the London Symphony Orchestra.
In 1987, Mulligan adapted K-4 Pacific (from his 1971 Age of Steam big band recording) for quartet with orchestra and performed it beside Entente with the Israel Philharmonic in Tel Aviv with Zubin Mehta conducting. Mulligan's orchestral appearances at the time also included the Houston Symphony, Stockholm Philharmonic and New York Philharmonic.
1988 saw the premier of Mulligan's Octet for Sea Cliff a chamber work commissioned by the Sea Cliff Chamber Players. In 1991 the Concordia Orchestra premiered Momo's Clock, a work for orchestra (without saxophone solo) that was inspired by a book by German author Michael Ende.
Throughout Mulligan's orchestral work and until the end of his life, Mulligan maintained an active career performing and recording jazz - usually with a quartet that included a piano.
In June 1988, Mulligan was invited to be the first-ever Composer-in-Residence at the Glasgow International Jazz Festival and was commissioned to write a work, which he entitled The Flying Scotsman. In 1991, Mulligan contacted Miles Davis about revisiting the music from the germane 1949 Birth of the Cool album. Davis had recently performed some of his Gil Evans collaborations with Quincy Jones at the Montreux Jazz Festival and was enthusiastic. However, Davis died from a stroke in September and Mulligan continued the recording project and tour with Wallace Roney and Art Farmer subbing for Davis. Re-Birth of the Cool (released in 1992) featured the charts from Birth of the Cool, and a new nonet which included Lewis and Barber from the original Davis band. Mulligan appeared at the Brecon Jazz Festival 1991. Mulligan's final recording was a quartet album (with guests), Dragonfly, recorded in the Summer of 1995 and released on the Telarc label. Mulligan gave his final performance on the 13th Annual Floating Jazz Festival, SS Norway, Caribbean Cruise, November 9, 1995.
Mulligan died in Darien, Connecticut on January 20, 1996 at the age of 68 following complications from knee surgery. His widow Franca -- to whom he had been married since 1976 -- said he had also been suffering from liver cancer. Upon Mulligan's death, his library and numerous personal effects (including a gold-plated Conn baritone saxophone) were given to the Library of Congress. 'The Gerry Mulligan Collection' is open to registered public researchers in the library's Performing Arts Research Center. The library placed Mulligan's saxophone on permanent exhibit in early 2009.
Mulligan's first film appearance was probably with Gene Krupa's orchestra playing alto saxophone in the 1946 RKO short film Follow That Music. Mulligan had small roles in the films I Want to Live! (1958 - as a jazz combo member), The Rat Race (1960 - in which he appears as a tenor saxophonist instead of playing his usual baritone sax), The Subterraneans (1960) and Bells Are Ringing (1960). Mulligan also performed numerous times on television in a variety of settings during his career.
As a film composer, Mulligan wrote music for A Thousand Clowns (1965 - title theme) the film version of the Broadway comedy Luv (1967), the French films La Menace (1977) and Les Petites galères (1977 - with Ástor Piazzolla) and I'm Not Rappaport (1996 - title theme).
In 1974 Mulligan collaborated on a musical version of Anita Loos' play Happy Birthday. Although the creative team had great hopes for the work, it never made it past a workshop production at the University of Alabama. In 1978, Mulligan wrote incidental music for Dale Wasserman's Broadway play Play with Fire.
In 1995 the Hal Leonard Corporation released the video tape The Gerry Mulligan Workshop - A Master Class on Jazz and Its Legendary Players.

Q: wxFormBuilder and frame subclasses I have been trying to work with wxFrameBuilder to create subclasses of frames so I can call a subclass that inherits a lot of the main frame but overwrites part of the frame by replacing a panel.

TypeError: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'id'
This is a simplified recreated error.
Can anyone help?

A: MainMenu.__init__ is defined like this:
def __init__( self, parent ):

But you are calling it like this:
MainMenu.__init__ ( self, parent, id = wx.ID_ANY, title = wx.EmptyString,
                    pos = wx.DefaultPosition, size = wx.Size( 500,300 ),
                    style = wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE|wx.TAB_TRAVERSAL )

See the problem?

Employers in Ontario should require employees to sign an employment contract before starting work.
Employment standards laws in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia prescribe minimum overtime pay, minimum statutory holiday pay, minimum vacation pay and minimum wage.
This case demonstrates that employers need to know that if they hire their independent contractors into a genuine "employee" position, that time they spent as an independent contractor may be calculated in establishing their right to severance.
In Canada, a requirement to conduct a workplace investigation is triggered in case of harassment, sexual harassment or violence. What then is required of such a workplace investigation? In short, a "reasonable" investigation is required.
A non-competition clause (or non-compete clause) is a passage in an employment contract which purports to prohibit employees from working for another employer or starting their own business which competes with their employer during and after employment.
Is drinking at work just cause for termination?
Just cause is the death penalty in employment law. Accordingly, in case of drinking at work, just cause can only be justified where the drinking at work causes grave concern.

James E. Long, Jr. died on December 2, 2008 at age 60 in Gerber, California.
Jim was born in Oakland, California and graduated from Pacific High School in San Leandro, California in 1966. He served in the Air Force for 6 1/2 years. During his tour of duty, he was stationed in Alaska and at March AFB in Southern California. Following his military career, Jim embarked on a new career as a Maintenance Splicer with Pacific Bell; he retired in 1996. It was during his career with Pacific Bell that he met the love of his life, Jean Bradley and her daughter Cristina.
Jim loved gardening and dreamt of moving to the country and becoming a farmer. He realized that dream when he and Jeannie moved to Gerber to live on an 18 acre spread where he raised cattle, chickens, owned horses and a donkey. Jim attended Shasta College and in 2004 became a Certified Master Gardener.
Jim held a variety of positions after his retirement; most recently he worked for Northstar posting electronic records on a CAD system.
Jim loved people, he was a friend to many, and never met a stranger. He will be sorely missed.
Jim is survived by his Fiancé, Jean Bradley and daughter Cristina of Norco, California, his father, James Long, Sr. of Gerber, sisters Joyce Sharpe (Pat) of Brentwood, California, Janice Long of Gerber, Jill Maughan (Phil) of San Lorenzo, California, in addition to three nieces: Amie Roberts (Chris), Rhonda Whent (Dan), Wendy Sharpe, and four grand-nieces: Sophia, Sabreena and Calista Roberts, and Hannah Whent. In addition, Jim leaves behind many friends who loved him and will miss him. He was preceded in death by his mother Alberta and his son James.
A Memorial Service in remembrance of Jim will be held on Saturday, December 13, at 1 p.m. at El Camino United Methodist Church, 8345 Hwy 99W, Gerber, California. Luncheon to follow at church.
Jody and I just read the article about Jimmy's death. We both were so shocked to read this. Jody was Jimmy's friend and I remember Jimmy in school as a gentle, nice guy; and I will remember him that way.
We're sending our condolences to his sister Joyce.
I had dinner with Jimmy a few months back in Sacramento. I had been trying to find Jimmy for years and I found him doing the reunion stuff. We started email for a few years and finally we got together, shortly before his death. We laughed, remember old times and talked about all that happened in 40 years since we had seen each other.

Here is timely information on a possible False Flag Event (FFE) at Downtown Los Angeles, CA. The Abel Danger Crime Scene Investigation Team will go live at 12 noontime PDT today 11/14/13 on LiveStream with news and analysis.
Everyone is invited to listen in and lean more.
Agent Chips,
….Over the weekend, SWAT teams were conducting drills in downtown Los Angeles unlike any completed in the past. The Citi Bank building that is currently occupied by Freddie Mac just recently dropped all insurance policies except for the policy portion which contains special conditions, coverages related to terrorism, which is all risk of direct physical damage. The certificate holder for this policy is located at 444 South Flower Street, Los Angeles, California 90015, under Hines Vaf, a private insurance company which offers Loss Adjusters, Allstate Claims Adjuster, Integrated Insurance Services, Property Insurance Adjuster and General Auto Insurance. Similar to the destruction of the twin towers, changes were made to their insurance policies prior to the so called terrorist acts on nine eleven…

Potential False Flag———————————-Anonymous Shocking Current Events
Greetings citizens of the world, we are Anonymous. We have received intel related to the possible destruction of one of downtown Los Angeles's towers, being set up as a false flag event on Friday, November fifteenth two thousand and thirteen. Over the weekend, SWAT teams were conducting drills in downtown Los Angeles unlike any completed in the past. The Citi Bank building that is currently occupied by Freddie Mac just recently dropped all insurance policies except for the policy portion which contains special conditions, coverages related to terrorism, which is all risk of direct physical damage. The certificate holder for this policy is located at 444 South Flower Street, Los Angeles, California 90015, under Hines Vaf, a private insurance company which offers Loss Adjusters, Allstate Claims Adjuster, Integrated Insurance Services, Property Insurance Adjuster and General Auto Insurance. Similar to the destruction of the twin towers, changes were made to their insurance policies prior to the so called terrorist acts on nine eleven. Although we are not one hundred percent sure of these horrific activities being planned to transpire within the next few days, we did not want to take a chance and risk losing anymore innocent lives and have a repeat of nine eleven in New York. The buildings in question are the Citi bank building which is located adjacent to the US bank building on the corner of South Flower and West Fifth street. It is believed to be the target for a false flag event set for this Friday. We ask American citizens who work in this area of Los Angeles California to take extra precautions. It is advisable given the severity of this information, if you are employed and are working, or conducting personal matters in either the Citi bank or the US bank towers of los Angeles, that you stay away from these two structures on that day. This is a warning, and again, as a precautionary measure we alert you of this possible false flag event being set up in the city of Los Angeles. To the share holders of these policies, you have been warned. We do not forgive, we do not forget. Expect to be held accountable for your actions if you follow through with your sinister agenda. We will not tolerate your wicked greed in pursuit of more wealth and restructure. We are Anonymous. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.

My new friend Jeff Polachek of JeffPolachek.com shared his informative website with me earlier today. I am intrigued by the lead story on Jeff's site; Mind Control Victims Testify at Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues March 1, 2011. The comments delivered to the panel are remarkable to say the least. I am amazed at the testimony of fist hand personal experience with claims of biological discomfort and disturbance of their persons. I would be interested to know how you feel about US Government sponsored non-consensual targeted Biological disturbance operations against US Citizens.

U S Marine Alleges Crimes Worthy of Impeachment Against Barry Soetoro aka President Barak Obama

This is a very powerful document! If these assertions are true, what does this say about the current US President, Barak Obama? Is this the kind of human being you want leading your country? It will be interesting to see how these articles will be addressed? I get that US Marine, Field McConnell and his friends are serious about the responsibility of personal actions taken by President OBama/Barry Soetoro. The question remains… is this President looking out for the best interest of the people of the United States of America?
ARTICLES of Impeachment – U S Marine Alleges Crimes Worthy of Impeachment Against Barry Soetoro '79

I, U. S. Marine Field McConnell, 0116513, Punahou 1967 and United States Naval Academy, 1971, in order to free myself and my fellow citizens from governmental tyranny, do herewith submit these Articles of Impeachment to Congress for the removal of President Barack H. Obama, aka, Barry Soetoro Punahou '79, from office for his attack on liberty and commission of egregious acts of despotism that constitute high crimes and misdemeanors. On July 4, 1776, the founders of our nation declared their independence from governmental tyranny and reaffirmed their faith in independence with the ratification of the Bill of Rights in 1791. Asserting their right to break free from the tyranny of a nation that denied them the civil liberties that are our birthright, the founders declared: "When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." – Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776.
THE IMPEACHMENT POWER
Article II, Section IV of the United States Constitution provides: "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."
THE ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT In his conduct of the office of President of the United States, Barack H. Obama, aka Barry Soetoro Punahou '79, personally and through his subordinates and agents, in violation or disregard of the constitutional rights of citizens and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has prevented, obstructed, and impeded the administration of justice, in that:
He has covered up, delayed, impeded and obstructed the investigation of the Benghazi Battle.
Specific conduct includes: (1) failing to adequately secure the US Consulate and the CIA annex in Benghazi; (2) failing to send a response team to rescue embattled US citizens in Benghazi; (3) lying to the American people about why the US Consulate and the CIA annex were attacked in Benghazi; and (3) hiding from the media and congressional investigators the Central Intelligence Agency personnel and other wounded US citizens who were on the ground in Benghazi by scattering them throughout the United States, forcing them to adopt new identities and subjecting them to monthly polygraph tests.
Benghazi Battle elements that are under investigation:
On September 11, 2012, the anniversary of the September 11, 2001, the US Consulate and the CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya was targeted in a premeditated, preplanned attack launched without warning by Islamist militants. Footage of the attack broadcast in real time showed armed men attacking the consulate with rocket-propelled grenades, hand grenades, assault rifles, 14.5 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, truck mounted artillery, diesel canisters, and mortars. It was not an act of savage mob violence, nor a spontaneous protest in response to an anti-Islamic video on YouTube. In that attack, four American citizens were killed: US Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens; Information Officer Sean Smith; and two embassy security personnel, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, both former Navy SEALs. Ambassador Stevens is the first U.S. ambassador killed in an attack since Adolph Dubs was killed in 1979.
He has disclosed secret grand jury material by exposing the existence of a sealed indictment of one of the Benghazi attackers in violation of Rule 6(e) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure that clearly states: "… no person may disclose the indictment's existence except as necessary to issue or execute a warrant or summons.''
He has authorized and permitted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, a division of the Justice Department, to conduct Operation Fast and Furious with money laundered through HSBC and the United States Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture Fund, wherein guns were sold to Mexican drug trafficking organizations that were used to kill innocent Mexican civilians and wherein two rifles sold to a smuggler in January 2010, ended up at the scene of the murder (wrongful death) of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry in December 2010. He has rewarded Fast and Furious and other corrupt operatives with a share of the $1.9 billion paid by HSBC into the Asset Forfeiture Fund; in the custody of Kristine Marcy and Eric Holder since 1984.
He has authorized and permitted confidential income tax returns information from the Internal Revenue Service to be provided to unauthorized individuals, organizations and agencies.
He has caused investigations and audits to be initiated or conducted by the Internal Revenue Service in a discriminatory manner, including harassment and intimidation of conservative, evangelical and Tea Party groups applying for non-profit status between 2010 and 2012.
Elements of this illegal conduct include the facts that: (1) the head of the Internal Revenue Service tax-exempt organization division, Lois Lerner, admitted during a telephonic press event that illegal targeting occurred, then invoked her Fifth Amendment right and refused to answer questions before Congress about the targeting out of fear of self-incrimination; (2) two other career Internal Revenue Service employees stated that they acted at the behest of superiors in Washington — Carter Hull, a retired Internal Revenue Service Attorney and Elizabeth Hofacre, an employee of the Cincinnati IRS office which oversaw tax-exempt applications; and (3) Carter Hull stated that he was directed to forward the targeted applications to, among others, one of only two political appointees in the Internal Revenue Service Chief Counsel William Wilkins.
He has (1) authorized and permitted the National Security Agency to conduct or continue electronic surveillance of over 300 million average Americans; (2) given access to National Security Agency surveillance data to other intelligence units within the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Secret Service, the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security in violation of the law; and (3) conducted the surveillance of average Americans unconstrained by Congress, the United Supreme Court or the US Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court which has, to this date, functioned as a rubber stamp, having approved every request made of it in 2012 and rejecting only two of the 8,591 requests submitted between 2008 and 2012.
He has authorized and permitted the Department of Justice to wiretap and secretly obtain two months of telephone and e-mail records of Fox News Reporter James Rosen and over one hundred Associated Press journalists.
He has thwarted Congress by (1) failing to enforce all or parts of laws duly enacted by Congress, including the Defense of Marriage Act, the No Child Left Behind Act, and the Affordable Care Act; and (2) after Congress refused to pass his Dream Act, unilaterally issuing an executive order directing immigration officers to no longer deport an entire class of illegal immigrants who came here as children, regardless of individual circumstances, and to give them work-authorization permits.
He has violated the Constitution when, on January 4, 2012, (1) he bypassed the U. S. Senate to appoint three members of the National Labor Relations Board, actions that were ruled unconstitutional by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit which affirmed previous decisions by the Court of Appeal for the D.C. Circuit and the Third Circuit; and (2) he bypassed the U. S. Senate to appoint Richard Cordray to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
He has intimidated whistleblowers and brought twice as many prosecutions against whistleblowers as all prior presidents combined. Egregiously, while refusing to prosecute anyone for actual torture, he prosecuted former Central Intelligence Agency employee John Kiriakou for disclosing the torture program.
When Civil Case 1:08-1600 (RMC) was tried in United States District Court, District of Columbia, he cooperated with Kristine Marcy in pressuring Judge Rosemary M. Collyer into dismissing the Civil Case as it led directly to the exposure of the 9/11 attack as a False Flag to condition the American people to authorize endless war against non-existent enemies. In the dismissed case were the six illegation modifications to glass cockpit FMS/FMGC airliners that have been illegally operating in United States flagged Part 121 airliner as has previously been acknowledged by Boeing Aircraft Company Legal Counsel Douglas Bain. Wherefore Barack H. Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office. The Articles of Impeachment have been sent to President Barry Soetoro, Punahou '79, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Boehner, House Minority Leader Pelosi and the full Judiciary Committee of the US House of Representatives for action.

I have heard Abeldanger.net described as a Cloud Centric Group of Investigators looking at both major and current events and the motivations behind these events, ie 9/11. US Marine Fighter Pilot Field McConnell and his partner Cambridge University Mechanical Engineer David Hawkins are producing volumes of background information on Organized Criminal Activities. I understand that Field and David and the AbelDanger Team invite everyone to discover together with them, some of the root causes creating events we all experience via the Main Stream Media (MSM) on their regular LiveStream broadcasts.
I have personally been studying for over 20 years now if there is a Grand Conspiracy using planet Earth and all her inhabitants as resources, kinda like running our planet like a business. Could a Cabal of Illuminated Ones or as some claim Satanic Ritual Abusers believe they have a Divine Right to "control" the planet by any means necessary? and for who? I can say that the assertions and hypothesis developed and shared on AbelDanger.net and Field McConnell's Presidential website has opened my mind to many, many possibilities I never imagined.
You can expect to see many articles of AbelDanger.net posted on this blog moving forward. I am interested in your feedback as a human being on this planet, I invite you to comment on all post on this blog. I am creating this blog as a way to generate communication between people. I could have never imagined how deep the rabbit hole really is…

Historic Atlanta
Atlanta began as the terminal point of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, a project authorized by the State of Georgia in 1836. Originally known as Terminus, and later Marthasville, by the Civil War Atlanta was a bustling city. Crippled by the burning of the city during the war, Atlanta rebounded during the last part of the century. Today it is home to more than 4 million people and is considered the entertainment and cultural center of the South, attracting more than 17 million travelers each year. This latest National Register of Historic Places travel itinerary highlights 70 historic places that tell the story of this capital city--from its picturesque homes to its reaching skyscrapers--tales of former slaves, educators, authors, and millionaires who have shaped the development of Atlanta over the past two centuries.
Union General William T. Sherman's occupation of Atlanta during the Civil War left much of the city in ruin, and antebellum era buildings such as the Tullie Smith House are today a rarity. Yet Atlantans rebuilt quickly as the city became the junction of three of the region's most important railroad lines, and the location for the Georgia State Capitol in 1868. The end of the 19th century brought great industrial development, with factories such as E. Van Winkle's Gin and Machine Works, lining the railroad corridors radiating from downtown. By the turn of the century, skyscrapers such as the English-American Building were dotting the city's skyline, and the dense redevelopment of downtown Atlanta had pushed residents to the edges of the city. Numerous suburban developments emerged such as West End, Inman Park, Druid Hills and Ansley Park. African Americans were establishing their own neighborhoods of Washington Park and Sweet Auburn, and institutions such as Atlanta University. Atlanta became the birthplace of the Coca-Cola empire--home to the company's founder, Asa Candler, who erected the Candler Building as a monument to himself, and the location of the early Dixie Coca-Cola Bottling Company Plant. Popular authors Margaret Mitchell (Gone With the Wind) and Joel Chandler Harris (Uncle Remus Tales) called Atlanta home, as well as major leaders in the black community such as Alonzo Herndon, a former slave who founded the Atlanta Life Insurance Company, and Civil Rights movement leader, Martin Luther King, Jr.

Statue, Buffalo, Giant Shoe

A giant concrete Native American in Elk Grove
Giant Native American
Steele Realty is located in Elk Grove and has been in operation since 1988. Since at least 2003, Ray Steele, also known as Mr. Buffalo, has been collecting large statues, as well as old farming machinery and other roadside attractions. The two most notable pieces are a giant buffalo and a giant Native American. Both are made out of concrete, a lot of concrete, and although the two appear to have been created by Ken Fox, the same Ken Fox who sculpted the Auburn Statues, they are actually not. It was brought to our attention by his son, Jeremy, that they were actually created by Bruce Carty, who had Fox as a teacher. You can find his signature at the base of both sculptures!
The Native American is extremely tall, just like several of the Auburn Statues, and is taller than the nearby building. For some reason, the buffalo additionally has a time capsule in its rear end.
A Giant Buffalo
The grounds also has all sorts of farm machinery scattered around. And there's also a giant shoe with a roof on top of it. It sits on four wheels, and advertises "We Have a Home for Everyone". There also use to be a large statue of a miner and a giant bust of Abraham Lincoln, but those have been gone for a few years now.

My father Bruce Carty sculpted the Indian, Buffalo, Miner and Abraham Lincoln bust. You can find his artist signature at the base of both the Buffalo and Indian that are still there. Fox was my dads teacher a long long time ago. My dad has sculpted many statues for school mascots around the country.

Newstalk retains Premier League season rights
Published: August 9, 2019 - 11:37 am
Newstalk is continuing to provide coverage of Premier League games for the next few years.
This follows the renewal of the Premier League's deal with Newstalk for another three seasons from 2019 to 2022, meaning every Sunday two games will be broadcast in full by the Off the Ball team of sports broadcasters from the Communicorp station.
The assembled talents of Kevin Kilbane, Brian Kerr, Gary Breen and the usual cast of OTB pundits alongside commentators Nathan Murphy, Stephen Doyle, Dave McIntyre will bring all the action every Sunday on the Off the Ball show on Newstalk hosted by Joe Molloy.
Speaking on behalf of the Premier League, Paul Molnar, Director of Broadcasting, said: "We are pleased to renew our longstanding partnership with Newstalk for another three years. We know Premier League fans in Ireland are some of the most passionate in the world, so I'm delighted they will once again be able to listen to all of the action on Sundays via Newstalk's first-class coverage.
"After one of the most exciting title races we've seen, there has never been a better time to follow the Premier League and Newstalk's superb line-up of commentators and pundits means those fans will feel every kick. We look forward to seeing what unpredictable drama the next three years brings."
Ger Gilroy, Off The Ball MD, said: "We love the Premier League in Ireland, and we're thrilled to be renewing this deal for another three years. We've had a brilliant partnership with the Premier League for more than a decade and a half now, and over that time the quality of players and games has just got better and better with each passing season.
"Being live in the ground, bringing people the sounds of the games that they think about all week, to bring our listeners the thoughts of the biggest names in world football and to be a part of how people live their football every week is a thrill for our team of pundits, commentators and hosts. Bring it on!"

Before deciding on hip resurfacing, your physician may try several non-surgical, conservative measures to relieve the pain and inflammation in your hip.
Arthritis pain is primarily caused by inflammation in the hip joint. Reducing the inflammation of the tissue in the hip can provide temporary relief from pain and may delay surgery.
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) may be prescribed to decrease the inflammation associated with arthritis. A new classification of NSAIDs, called Cox-2 inhibitors, are often very effective in decreasing pain.
There exist a number of non-surgical alternatives to total hip replacement surgery. Such measures as lifestyle modification, exercise and physical therapy, and medication should be implemented before deciding on surgery. If all of these measures have been exhausted and your orthopedist recommends surgical intervention, BIRMINGHAM HIP Resurfacing can be very successful in decreasing pain and greatly improving function.

Antonio González González (Realejo Alto, Illes Canàries, Espanya, 1917 - 11 d'octubre de 2002) fou un bioquímic espanyol, acadèmic de la Reial Acadèmia de Ciències Exactes, Físiques i Naturals. Els seus estudis, versats en investigacions sobre la determinació estructural i sintètica de productes naturals han estat, han estat publicats en més de 700 articles en diverses revistes científiques nord-americanes, angleses i alemanyes.

Nascut el 1917 a la població del Realejo Alto de l'illa de Tenerife, a les illes Canàries, va estudiar Química a la Universitat de La Laguna, obtenint el 1946 la càtedra de química i bioquímica d'aquesta universitat.

El 1947 inicià els seus estudis sobre productes naturals bioactius obtinguts durant els primers anys de la flora canària, ampliant els seus estudis florístics sobre les plantes tropicals amb més alta bioactivitat. El 1949 fou nomenat director de la secció de Química orgànica creada pel Consell Superior d'Investigacions Científiques (CSIC) a la Universitat de la Laguna, treballant posteriorment amb el futur premi Nobel de Química Alexander Todd a la Universitat de Cambridge.

El 1963 fundà, juntament amb el cabildo insular, l′Instituto de Investigaciones Químicas, actualment denominat Instituto Universitario de Bio-orgánica "Antonio González". Nomenat rector de la Universitat de La Laguna aquell mateix any, ocupà aquest càrrec fins al 1968. Després de les eleccions generals espanyoles de 1977 fou nomenat senador per designació reial, formant part de l'Agrupación Independiente i secretari primer de la comissió d'agricultura i pesca del Senat d'Espanya.

Della Soul: LA Eco Fashion in Ghana
By Chere Di Boscio
What happens when LA cool meets Ghanan tradition? The answer is Della, a Los Angeles-based fashion line that is changing the way people shop. Woman-owned and run, the company works directly with a community in West Africa, providing jobs, education and skills training to its employees.
The brand was founded by iced tea addict and maker of a mean cookie, Los Angeles native Tina Tangalakis. After having studied costume design at the California Institute of the Arts, she later went on to work as a wardrobe stylist for film and TV before deciding to volunteer abroad in Ghana. It was a trip that would change her life.
Whilst in Africa, she completely fell in love with the warmth and friendliness of the people, as well as their bright, traditional textiles. She was a bit shocked by the levels of poverty she saw, however, and decided the best way to help do something about it wasn't through charity, but action.
Then she got a brainstorm: Tina teamed up with a local entrepreneur to launch Della, a socially responsible fashion line that provides jobs, education and skills training to women and men of Hohoe. The main idea was to build a foundation for a better life through providing long-term, well paid jobs, as well as education and skills training within the community of Hohoe.
But getting the company set up and training the employees was only half the challenge–what types of designs would the company produce? How could traditional Ghanaian textiles look modern to the Western eye?
"My main influences are classic, vintage style. My love for design began when I fell in love with fashion history and how social trends reflect in how people dress," Tina says. "Today I seek to bridge modern design with classic style, while bringing traditional Ghanaian textiles into the mix."
Tina decided to translate Ghanaian style into the colours used in Della; the bolder prints are used for accents like handbags and shoes. In fact, the brand recently paired up with skater shoe brand Vans to apply a bit of Ghana to casual footwear. They've also created a capsule collection for Urban Outfitters.
The Ghanaian staff receive more than a job creating these collections; they also benefit from weekly literacy classes, money management courses (something we could use here at Eluxe!), child care, health care provision, and there's even a volleyball league for employees.
Seems Della is focused not only on introducing African style to America, but to making their workers feel as happy as their brightly coloured prints look.

An iron gate with the infamous slogan "Arbeit macht frei" ("Work will set you free") stolen from the former Nazi concentration camp Dachau in Germany two years ago has been found in Norway, police said Friday.
The gate was recovered outside Bergen in southwestern Norway this week following an anonymous tip-off, Bergen police spokeswoman Margrethe Myrmehl Gudbrandsen told AFP.
"It was found in the open air," she said. "You can tell that it's been outside but it's in good condition."
Bergen police released several photos of the black gate, one of which showed it leaning against a low wall on a bed of autumnal leaves.
In a statement, it added that the gate would be returned to the German authorities "as soon as possible".
There was no mention of any arrests made in connection with the theft.
Police in the southern German state of Bavaria, where Dachau is located, confirmed the gate had been found.
"From the picture transmitted, police believe it is highly likely that this is the iron gate that was stolen from Dachau," it said in a statement.
The theft of the 100-kilogramme (220-pound) gate was reported on November 2, 2014, sparking an uproar, with Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel calling the crime "appalling".
The gate was taken on a Saturday night, between the rounds of security guards watching the site which has no video surveillance system.
Police at the time said they were investigating whether neo-Nazis had committed the crime, and even offered a 10,000-euro ($11,000) reward for tips that could solve the case.
Cultural authorities in Bavaria welcomed the recovery of the gate.
"It is a relief to me that this original evidence of the Nazis' cynicism and contempt for humans has been rediscovered," Karl Freller, head of the Bavarian Memorial Foundation, said in a statement.
Gabriele Hammermann, director of the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site, said the gate, "a highly symbolic relic of the concentration camp", would once again go on display after the authorities had finished their investigations.
"Of course it will be presented to the public again following restoration," she said in the same statement, adding however that it had yet to be decided "whether that will be in its original place or as part of a permanent exhibition".


Nearly 80 Kmart and Sears stores will shut down this summer.
Hoffman Estates, Ill.—Sears Holdings Corp. has announced that 68 Kmart and 10 Sears stores across the U.S. will close in late July, with a few exceptions scheduled to end activity in mid-September. This resolution came after an evaluation of each commercial unit's performance and the timing of lease expirations.
"The decision to close stores is a difficult but necessary step as we take aggressive actions to strengthen our company, fund our transformation and restore Sears Holdings to profitability", said Edward Lampert, Chairman & CEO of Sears Holdings, in a prepared statement.
The Illinois-based company hopes to gain consistent financial resources from the liquidation of the stores' inventory and the sublease or sale of available commercial spaces. Sears Holdings has already obtained a $1.2 billion loan to be invested in the modernization process of their retail assets, just another step in reaching their goal for this year: making profit. "Through our continued investments in Integrated Retail, our stores are a critical component of our strategy as we provide our members with industry-leading innovations such as Meet with an Expert, In-Vehicle Pickup and Return and Exchange in Five", Lampert said.
The targeted stores will start their liquidation sales on April 29th, and onMay 12th respectively. Associates affected by these measures will receive compensations and will have the opportunity to apply for open positions at other Kmart or Sears stores in their area which will remain open. Customers can use the store locator function on the company's websites to find the location of their nearest Kmart and Sears stores.
Sears Holding Corp. is an integrated retailer which operates through its subsidiaries, including Sears and Kmart Corp., and is also home to shopping platform Shop Your Way.


Todays words of wisdom at the last day of August. It kind of feels strange to think that it's September tomorrow and autumn is coming… Where did this year go?
Sometimes it can be difficult to see how things can improve from the day before. Sometimes it seems it's going into the opposite direction.
With to familymembers dying in less than six month it has been a bit to chew on. One of them presented the light in my life, and the other one the darkness… So when light and darkness disapear – what stays behind?
Fortuantely I'm blessed with people in my life that make each day worth to get up and go out for. They have been my anchor that kept me from drifting of to much.
And then there has been this great viryayoga gang bringing normality, hugs, support and loveshowers along with them. Now as we have finished our education just yesterday and everyone is walking in his own direction will still have to wait and see how much we manage to meet again. But all the moments and words we shared will stay with us forever, and I'm so happy I had all this in my life.
Wish you all a happy day!
I'm counting down the days to and past the exam… Really are very stressed out – and guess what yoga doesn't help either!
Well… Friday at this time the worst is over – worst = filming of teaching….
Have fun everyone! Make your day count!

Three Olympians Join The ElliptiGO Project
Olympians Magdalena Lewy Boulet, Michael Gostigian and Jorge Torres join The ElliptiGO Project. The group now has ten elite members focused on making runners faster through innovation
Erika Nelson
San Diego, CA (April 19, 2012) – The ElliptiGO Project, a group of elite runners focused on using innovative training tools and techniques to improve performance, today announced that 2008 Olympic marathoner Magdalena Lewy Boulet, three-time Olympian Michael Gostigian, and 2008 Olympic 10,000-meter runner Jorge Torres have become members of the Project. Boulet, Gostigian, and Torres join an already impressive group of runners that includes 15-time All-American and two-time US National Champion Lauren Fleshman, US National Champion Julie Culley, Badwater Ultramarathon Winner Dean Karnazes, 50K US Record Holder Josh Cox, Olympic Trials Qualifier Craig Leon, USATF Runner of the Year for Men 55-59 Brian Pilcher, and three-time World Masters Mountain Running Champion Simon Gutierrez.All ten of these athletes are incorporating the ElliptiGO and other innovative techniques and tools into their training in order to get faster and achieve their goals.
For marathoner Boulet, cross-training on the ElliptiGO fit in perfectly with her training philosophy. "I follow the philosophy my coach Jack Daniels instilled in me over the past ten years of our coaching relationship," she remarked. "Our goal is to create the least possible stress on my body that produces the maximum physiological benefits, and the ElliptiGO provides an efficient and effective means to do just that. I'm excited to be a part of this rapidly growing team where we can learn from each other's experiences and develop the best training techniques for innovative tools like the ElliptiGO."
To join the Project, athletes are required to have an inspiring running-related goal that they want to accomplish in the next two years and want to authentically integrate new training tools and techniques in order to help them achieve their goal.In addition, athletes must be willing to share their training and results with other members of the team. Each athlete will use tools like the ElliptiGO in a slightly different way, so a major benefit to the team members is being able to communicate with each other and learn new ways to incorporate these devices into their own workout regimens.
Some of the Project athletes, like Torres, initially discovered the ElliptiGO when they were injured and used it during their rehabilitation. "As an athlete, it's tough on you both mentally and physically when you're not able to train at the level you want to," stated Torres. "The ElliptiGO gave me a way to train hard while injured, plus it was a really fun way to work out. I was able to use the ElliptiGO throughout my injury to keep up my aerobic endurance and give me the high-intensity, running-like workouts I was used to – just without the painful impact of running. Now that I'm healthy, I still use it to take the load off my joints while building endurance and cardio fitness."
Rounding out this trio of new members is three-time Olympian Michael Gostigian, who brings a lifetime of competitive experience with him to the Project. After competing for the United States in the 1988, 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games in the Modern Pentathlon, Gostigian retired from competition.Last year, at the age of 48, Gostigian decided to attempt to qualify for the 2012 Olympic Games. "It's a lofty goal, for sure, but if you train smart and treat your body well, you can perform at the highest level for a lot longer than we used to think possible," stated Gostigian. "The ElliptiGO is one of the tools I use to keep myself in shape and help me compete against much younger athletes. I think you will see more and more athletes of all ages start to incorporate this new device as they see the results we are able to achieve."
As a member of the Project, these athletes will have access to the expertise of Integration Advisor Bob Augello. Augello has been working with endurance athletes at all levels for more than 20 years with a particular emphasis on using innovation to improve performance.His role is to advise Project members on how they can best use all the different tools and techniques identified by the Project.
"As I see it, injuries are the single greatest enemy one faces when striving to obtain optimal performance capability, whether during a season or over the course of an entire career," remarked Augello. "I see integration of the ElliptiGO into training as a means of evading that enemy. It's the closest thing available to running – it generates a heart rate within 5 beats of what it would be if you were running – but it's non-impact."
The Project is currently recruiting elite runners with ambitious goals who are interested in exploring innovative new ways of getting faster and staying healthy.For more information about The ElliptiGO Project, visit the website at www.theelliptigoproject.com.

What does it mean to love the world? Do you love the world?
This is an important question, as the consequences are rather serious.
Or are you His friend?
So what is love? Is love a feeling?
How did He love His disciples?
The answer to this question settles the matter of whether you are a friend or an enemy of God. Do you want to know?
The Greek word translated love in the verses above means the direction of the will towards whomever or whatever one finds his joy in,3 which is inescapably revealed in how one spends his time, money, and energy.
The gospels show us exactly how Yahshua spent His time and energy. He did not take one thought for Himself. His attention was always on His disciples. He was always serving them, teaching them, encouraging them, and correcting them. It was His full-time occupation. And then He died for them.
How can anyone not worry about where his food and clothing will come from? Only if his brothers and sisters are taking care of his needs. In the true Body of Messiah all are continually serving one another according to each one's particular grace and gifting,9 doing the works prepared for them to walk in.10 That is how each one practically obeys the command to "seek first His kingdom and His righteousness," with the result that each one has everything he needs.11 Someone has the grace and gifting to take care of the clothing needs for the community, while someone else makes sure there is healthy food on the table, while others work to provide an income, to maintain their dwellings, to teach the children, to shepherd the flock, etc. Every member of the Body labors on behalf of all, and none need be anxious for their own life.
So who are His enemies? They are those who claim to be His friends, but do not obey His commandments.15 They claim to love Him, and even to love one another, but the lion's share of their time and energy is consumed in making a comfortable life for themselves in this world.
Remember, what the Bible calls "love" is not a feeling. It is the direction of your will towards the object of your love. Your love is measured by what captures your attention, by what you take delight in, and by where you spend your time, money, and energy. That is the fact of the matter, regardless of how you feel.
Whom or what do you love? What is the direction of your will?
What is the world? What are the things of the world?
The result is the common life described in Acts 2 and 4 (quoted previously), the community of those who were redeemed from their lonely, futile existence in the world, and given the full-time occupation of loving one another just as He loved them. In place of whatever they left behind they would receive a hundredfold new brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers, children, houses and farms -- along with persecution from those who love this world and hate the true message of the gospel and the abundant life it produces.
What is the direction of your will? What consumes your time and energy? Is it love for the world and the things of the world? Or is it love for the people and the things of God?
How can you love your brothers just as Yahshua loved His disciples, laying down your life for them, if you only see them once or twice a week? Living your independent life insulates you from actually seeing your brother in need (materially or otherwise) so that you can comfortably withhold your life and livelihood from him and spend it on yourself. But the true gospel produces a life of true community in which it is possible to obey the commandments, the foremost of which is to love one another -- to lay down your life for your brothers each and every day. It takes a community.
So have you arrived at a conclusion? Are you a friend or an enemy of God? Are you with Him or against Him, gathering or scattering?27 What is the direction of your will?
We would like you to gather with us in one of the places where He has caused His name to dwell, where brothers are living together in unity. Perhaps you didn't even know there was such a place. All our communities worldwide are listed here. You are always welcome!
21. Even the Master Himself had to make this choice to risk offending His earthly mother in order to do the will of His heavenly Father (Mark 3:21,31-35).

Whiplash or Whiplash associated disorder in its medical terminology describes a range of symptoms brought on by a flexion-extension injury to the cervical spine commonly due to a road traffic accident.
The Québec Task Force (QTF) has divided whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) into five grades.
WAD Grade 1: neck complaints of pain, stiffness or tenderness only but no physical signs are noted by the examining physician.
WAD Grade 2: neck complaints and the examining physician finds decreased range of motion and point tenderness in the neck.
WAD Grade 3: neck complaints plus neurological signs such as decreased deep tendon reflexes, weakness and sensory deficits.
WAD Grade 4: neck complaints and fracture or dislocation, or injury to the spinal cord.
Symptoms reported by sufferers include: pain and aching to the neck and back, referred pain to the shoulders, sensory disturbance (such as pins and needles) to the arms & legs and headaches. Symptoms can appear directly after the injury, but often are not felt until days afterwards.
For the vast majority of patients the symptoms are mild and resolve with simple therapies. A minority will have severe and disabling symptoms.
Whiplash associated disorders grade 1–3 should receive physical therapies such as manipulation, mobilisations and range of motion exercises.
Over the counter pain medication and anti-inflammatory drugs may also be prescribed in the case of WAD 2 and WAD 3, but their use should be limited to a maximum of 3 weeks.
A cervical collar should not be used for longer than 72 hours as it may lead to prolonged inactivity.
Return to normal activities of daily living should be encouraged as soon as possible to maximize and expediate full recovery.
Injection therapies targeting the facet joints in the neck have been shown to be useful in cases resistant to the medication and physical therapies. Patients who respond favourably to two sets of diagnostic medial branch blocks to the cervical facet should gain long term benefit with a Radiofrequency Denervation procedure.

The super powers were not prepared to go beyond a general declaration at the Security Council that in the event of any non-nuclear signatory being subjected to nuclear threat or attack, the other nuclear weapon powers would consult one another of ways of going to its aid and preventing an attack. 2.
The attitude adopted by big powers obviously required of us to maintain a very friendly stance with members of the Security Council which could not be always possible in view of our disputes with some of our neighbouring countries. India felt that the signing of the NPT would imply that it should shape its foreign and domestic policies to the liking of big powers. It could result in loss of freedom of action and a partial surrender of our sovereignty. We insisted that if the guarantees were to be meaningful, they should be obligatory and automatic. The machinery could be generated which could be a watchdog on violation of the NPT. 3. One of our major objections to the NPT has been the constant additions to their nuclear stockpiles by the super powers.
The late Mr. V. C. Trivedi, our representative at Geneva, summed up the super powers' attitude best when he commented, " Their attitude is like that of Mughal Nawabs who boozed a lot themselves, but asked their subjects not to drink as it was not good for health.
" How could a super power ask us not to produce nuclear weapons when they themselves possess large stockpiles of the same? India insists that the NPT to be meaningful should be both vertical and horizontal. The nuclear states must give a credible guarantee that they will reduce their stockpile drastically if they are to have any moral right to ask us to sign the NPT. The treaty should have led to meaningful level of general disarmament.
The INF Treaty signed in November 1987 covers only 4 per cent of the total nuclear arsenal, the balance can still kill the entire world population many times over. Both the USA and Russia have diluted the strength of this argument by signing a series of agreements to cut the nuclear stockpile. The START II has already reduced their stockpile of nuclear weapons (missiles etc.) from about 8000 each to 3000 each. START III is likely to be signed in near future and it will tackle the problem of the ABMs, tactical and strategic weapons that each country can possess (USA and Russia). 4.
A new factor that has been added is the threatened foray into the nuclear field by our neighbour Pakistan. In 1993, the US President refused to give a clean chit to Pakistan on its nuclear ambition and correspondingly drastically curtailed the quantum of US aid. The chairman of the Pak Nuclear Board announced in January 1991 that the pursuit of nuclear goal was a political expediency. It is now well known that Pakistan possesses about ten to fifteen nuclear bombs, and our response has to be adjusted accordingly. The defence strategists in both countries even maintain that the possession of nuclear weapons by India and Pakistan could be conducive to peace in the region. Both India and Pakistan have a common destiny. Their squandering of precious resources so much needed for alleviation of poverty programmes makes no sense. The Iraqi intransigence and the dismantling of its nuclear sites by the in Israel in 1981 should be a warning to the rest of the world that the super powers are not going to put up with the third world nuclear programmes.
Pax Americana is not going to let regional spheres of influence sprout. One can argue that the Kargil conflict was contained and not allowed to result in a conflagration; because both India and Pakistan possessed nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons in Pakistan can be grabbed by the militants President Musharraf was the best guarantee that this does not happen. In early 2008, in the aftermath of the assassination of the PPP leader Benazir Bhutto, the situation in Pakistan is highly dangerous. This in the interests of rest of the world that Army continues to call the shots in Pakistan; alternative would be total anarchy and mayhem.
India has most to feet from the present uncertain situation in Pakistan, as the Jehadis would have no compunction to turn their ire against us. Unrest in Kashmir can increase and intensity of terrorist attacks heightened.
