May 27, 1989 Oakland Coliseum Stadium, Oakland, CA: John Fogerty with Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir (Centerfield)
Time, as Steve Miller has observed, keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future. As we slip forward, we inevitably see things differently. Nonetheless, on occasion it is a healthy exercise to recall events as they appeared at the time, in contrast to how they seem now. The Grateful Dead headlined a Benefit Concert at the Oakland Coliseum Stadium on May 27, 1989. There were many fascinating aspects to this booking, but in retrospect the most fascinating was that former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty was second on the bill, and it was known before the show that Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir would be part of his backing group.
Creedence had been hugely, titanically popular, but Fogerty had been in a bitter dispute with his record company since the mid-70s, and as a result had refused to play any of his great Creedence songs in concert. By 1989, however, although Fogerty's ire towards Fantasy Records had not subsided, for various reasons he had come to terms with his old songs, so it was widely known that not only would Garcia and Weir be backing Fogerty, but that they would be playing Creedence classics as well. Everything pointed towards an event of historic proportions.
I went to the show, as did about 40,000 of my closest friends. The weather was great, the crowd was nice, the vibe was relaxed, the show ran smoothly and everyone went bonkers for John Fogerty. And yet, and yet, somehow, for Deadheads like me and others, the glow wore off quickly. It was historic to see Fogerty, and unique to see Garcia and Weir play with him, but somehow it seemed like just another rock show. I love Creedence songs, but they are basic, and Garcia and Weir's talents were not particularly needed. Somehow, my memory of that show faded into a lost opportunity, of Garcia playing with a legendary opening act and just comping away.
Yet Deadheads tend to celebrate recordings from "This Day In History," and when May 27 came around, there were some casual reminiscences about the event which caused me to re-think it. It also turned out there is accessible YouTube video of the entire Fogerty set. Seeing the video reminded me of the show, and caused me to think about it the way I thought about it at the time. So watch the video, if you haven't already, and we can think about how the show seemed so bright and exciting at the time, and in many ways genuinely was--regardless of how I feel about it today.
In Concert Against AIDS, Oakland Coliseum Stadium, Oakland, CA, May 27, 1989
Grateful Dead/Special Appearance by John Fogerty/Tracy Chapman/Los Lobos/Joe Satriani/Tower Of Power
It seems shocking today that a Benefit concert for a terrible disease would be seen as a progressive political act, but such was the Reagan 80s. At least in San Francisco, efforts to prevent AIDS and provide care for those suffering from it had finally expanded beyond the gay community into the general culture. Nonetheless it was still significant when major rock bands headlined a large benefit concert in the Bay Area's biggest venue. Concern for AIDS had finally reached parity with Amnesty International and the Rain Forest, which was a welcome thing. The Coliseum benefit was the largest of several events around the Bay Area, all organized by Bill Graham Presents, and meant to raise awareness as well as money.
Originally the Oakland show was supposed to have joint headliners, with both the Grateful Dead and Huey Lewis and The News. A few weeks before the show, however, Huey Lewis had to drop out of the show. Rather sheepishly, his management publicly conceded that the stadium show was cutting into ticket sales for Lewis around Northern California, and they couldn't afford to work for what was effectively nothing. Lewis and The News were popular, and had had a number of big AM hits, but their last album (1988's Small World) had only reached #11, whereas the previous two (1983's Fore and 1986's Sports) had both reached #1. The News had played around the Bay Area a lot, and while they put on a good show, their fans apparently weren't going to see them an infinite number of times.
The Dead, of course, had no such concerns. At a press conference, Jerry Garcia graciously said that Huey had to listen to his management, it was part of the business. Yet the Dead had just played two shows at Stanford's Frost Amphitheatre (May 6-7) and had booked three nights at Shoreline (June 18, 19 and 21)--on weeknights no less--and still packed them all. We take this for granted now, but in the Bay Area it was a public reminder of both how huge the Grateful Dead were and how committed their fan base was. Huey Lewis And The News were the biggest act in the Bay Area at the time with respect to record sales, and yet the Dead outdrew them by several multiples. The Dead were no longer an aging hippie band who hadn't broken up--they were the biggest draw in town.
I no longer recall the exact sequence of booking, but I think John Fogerty replaced Huey Lewis on the bill. It wasn't entirely necessary, as the Dead sold so many tickets. Still, it was in Bill Graham's interest to make the concert a special event, and Fogerty's presence certainly met that criteria. Fogerty had a unique status in the Bay Area at the time, and everyone was reminded of that when word was unofficially "leaked", I believe through Joel Selvin's Chronicle column, that not only would Garcia and Weir back Fogerty, but that Fogerty would be playing old Creedence songs.
Creedence Clearwater Revival had originally formed in El Cerrito High School in 1959 as The Blue Velvets. The band was a quartet, featuring John Fogerty on lead guitar, his older brother Tom on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, and childhood friends Stu Cook on bass and Doug Clifford on drums. The group soldiered on throughout the 60s, under various names (like The Golliwogs), releasing a few singles and playing numerous shows around Northern California. All four of the band members had various obligations to the military, so although the band always played, they could not participate full time in the San Francisco rock explosion of the mid-60s.
By 1968, however, with John Fogerty's service in the US Army Reserve coming to an end, the band could be all-in. The Golliwogs changed their name to the hipper sounding Creedence Clearwater Revival, and took a Monday night residency at a local rock dive called DenoCarlo's, at 750 Vallejo Street, later better known as the Keystone Korner. Soon the experienced band was playing much bigger shows around town. Their long-time label, Fantasy Records, despite mostly being a jazz label, figured they had something and recorded and released Creedence's first album quickly, releasing it in July 1968. The album got good local FM airplay, and the single "Suzie Q" reached #11.
In January 1969, Creedence Clearwater released the album Bayou Country. When John Fogerty was finally released from US Army Reserve duty, he wrote the song "Proud Mary" to celebrate. That song, along with "Born On The Bayou," began a long run of hits for Creedence. The band was hugely popular on both AM and FM radio, a rarity at the time, they were popular with hippies and servicemen, and the band's Southern flavor--they were all from a tiny town near Berkeley, nothing Southern about El Cerrito--broadened their appeal way beyond the usual bunch of hippies.
Bayou Country reached #7 on the album charts, and until Creedence broke up in 1972, they had 4 more top 10 albums and 10 singles in the top 10 as well. For all the famous bands that came out of the Bay Area in the 60s, Creedence outsold them all, both at the time and later. Yet the band's breakup in 1972 was very bitter, and made more so by lawsuits between John Fogerty and Fantasy Records. Fogerty was primed to have a great post-Creedence career, but his anger over how he felt Fantasy had taken his money caused him to lay very low. Ultimately, Fogerty forewent his Creedence royalties so that he could sign with Warner Brothers, and he had some good hits with them, like 1985's "Centerfield."
When Fogerty finally started touring to support his albums, around 1986, he absolutely refused to play any of his Creedence material, since he didn't want any money to go to Fantasy. At the same time, Fantasy was not interested in promoting Creedence, either, so by mid-80s standards, Creedence Clearwater Revival was somewhat forgotten relative to other classic rock bands. However, when Fogerty played a Vietnam Veteran's Benefit in Landover, MD on July 4, 1987, he apparently had a change of heart and his band played 8 Creedence classics, to the enthusiastic reception of the audience. So while seeing Fogerty perform Creedence songs was rare, it was not entirely unprecedented. It is also possible that some legal matters had been resolved with Fantasy, so Fogerty was freer to do what he wanted, but in any case it made the show far more intriguing.
The weather for the Day On The Green concert was perfect. Bill Graham, apparently, had an exclusive arrangement with some greater power, so that it never, ever rained when he was having a major outdoor show, and his deal remained in place for the May '89 AIDS Benefit. Another oddity about the AIDS Benefit was that there were no less than five opening acts for the Grateful Dead, which I think was some kind of record for a Bay Area Grateful Dead show. Although I don't precisely recall, I have good reason to think that we were intentionally late, and only arrived in time to see John Fogerty and the Dead. By 1989, I no longer had any desire to spend 12 hours in the sun, just to wipe myself out for what I wanted to see at the very end.
I don't believe the show was sold out, although I no longer can remember for certain. By 1989, the Dead were huger than ever, thanks to "Touch Of Grey", and I think the Coliseum show was an opportunity for a lot of people who had always wanted to see the Dead but hadn't been been able to get tickets. Frost and Shoreline shows sold out pretty rapidly, so regular rock fans who wanted to see the Dead were out of luck. Thus the crowd was very Dead-positive, with plenty of Deadheads, but far less like the insular club of Deadhead veterans that were characteristic of Bay Area shows at the time.
Johh Fogerty hit the stage in the late afternoon, last up before the Grateful Dead. His band, previously announced, was
John Fogerty-lead guitar, vocals
Jerry Garcia-guitar
Bob Weir-guitar
Randy Jackson-bass
Steve Jordan-drums
Jackson and Jordan were well-known and well regarded as session players. Randy Jackson was a working member of Santana's band at the time, among many other gigs. Today, of course, Jackson is best known as a judge for the TV show American Idol, but that was far in his future. Jordan had played the Bay Area recently, on the 1988 tour with Keith Richards, whose album he had co-produced. Fogerty played 11 songs in about 45 minutes.
Born On The Bayou
Rock And Roll Girl
Fortunate Son
encores with Clarence Clemons-tenor saxophone
Suzie Q
We had pretty good seats, but by definition of having seats, we were pretty far back--behind first base, as I recall. However, there was a big video screen, so we could see what was happening onstage. I was seeing a lot of rock bands at the time, and I was pretty excited about seeing Fogerty. A lot of bands were doing what amounted to "Legacy" tours, like Pink Floyd and The Who, and I had mixed feelings about them. I had seen Fogerty a few years earlier, next door at the Coliseum Arena, and while he did a good show, the absence of all his great hits left a shadow over the concert.
Unlike some middle-aged rock acts, Fogerty looked healthy and sounded great, probably a function of Fogerty having mostly spent most of the previous 15 years at home with his family instead of grinding it out on the road like The Dead. Nonetheless, it was strange for me in many ways, as it must have been for many fans that were present: here was John Fogerty, a huge rock star, playing a relatively historic show, and here we were obsessing over what his backup guitarist was doing.
Garcia And The Fogertys
Most serious Deadheads knew that Garcia had played with Tom Fogerty, John's brother. Tom had left Creedence in 1970 over various issues, reducing the band to a trio. Merl Saunders had been on Fantasy Records since the mid-60s, and he had known the Fogerty brothers long before they were famous. Since Merl and Jerry regularly hung out at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, at 10th and Parker, the so-called "House That Creedence Built," it was hardly a surprise when Merl had invited his old friend Tom to play guitar alongside of Jerry in 1971. Tom Fogerty had played quite a few shows with Garcia and Saunders, up through late '72, and played on various studio projects with Merl and Jerry as well.
However, by 1971, relations were strained between John Fogerty and Fantasy Records, so it is very unlikely that John Fogerty ever hung out at 10th and Parker. While I assume that John Fogerty and Jerry Garcia had met backstage at some rock festival or something, the Dead and Creedence had hardly ever played shows together. Off the top of my head, I can only think of one indoor show together, a multi-act People's Park Benefit at Winterland on May 28, 1969. In that respect, it was if Garcia and John Fogerty had gone to high school together. They had many shared experiences and mutual friends and nemeses, no doubt, and had--in effect--passed each other in the halls many times, yet hardly knew each other.
Did Garcia Rehearse With John Fogerty?
The question I would most like to have answered about this show is "who rehearsed?" From watching the video, it is clear that John Fogerty had run through the songs with Randy Jackson and Steve Jordan. Now, Creedence songs are delightfully basic, as well as famous worldwide, so pros like Jackson and Jordan hardly needed many takes. On every song, however, Jackson and Jordan both provide a funky bottom and plenty of accent. They knew the tunes, and they knew how to make them swing, so I think they had worked on them with Fogerty.
Jerry Garcia, however, was notorious for never wanting to rehearse. Weir is far less notorious for avoiding rehearsals, though it is also known that he is famously not on time, so it may amount to something similar. Since John Fogerty wasn't particularly close to any members of the Dead, it's clear that Bill Graham was the one who got Garcia and Weir to accompany Fogerty, and in so doing make it "an event," in classic Graham style. Could Graham have persuaded Garcia to rehearse? The alternative is strange, namely playing a show in front of 40,000 people with at least two band members completely flying blind.
Here's what I think, although I am anxious to hear if anyone knows different. Fogerty knows his songs are simple, and assumes that everyone knows them. I think Fogerty had a rehearsal with Jackson and Jordan on a prior day. On the day of the show, I think Garcia and Weir had a dressing room run-through with Fogerty and the rhythm section, agreeing on the tempos and the intros. Sandy Rothman has described how the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band did not really practice songs, they just agreed on an intro and tempo and sang a chorus together. Granted, Rothman, Garcia and David Nelson had played all those songs before, but it was usually twenty years earlier. Still, one chorus run through was sufficient. So I think Fogerty talked Garcia and Weir through the planned songs, but they had never really played together until they got on stage.
Jerry Garcia-Electric Guitar and Backing Vocal
Garcia's appearance with John Fogerty has seemingly receded in importance over the years. Fogerty has been a relatively regular performer, touring with Bruce Springsteen for example, so his mere performance of old Creedence songs is no longer a big deal, just another classic rock guy. Creedence songs have a nice groove, but they aren't jamming platforms, so of course Garcia just plunks away through the entire show, and nothing about his playing at the Coliseum is really memorable.
However, watching the video again, after all these years, caused me to think about the show in a different light. On one hand, Jerry Garcia's health in 1989 was as good as it had been in at least a decade, nor it would ever be that good again. Yet the stunning success of "Touch Of Grey," gratifying as it must have been, insured that the bubble of Garcia's life meant that he was more insulated than ever. Garcia wasn't just a legend to Deadheads, he was in the pantheon now, the biggest rock star in the Bay Area, in a beautiful cage with no escape.
When Fogerty kicks off the familiar, booming riff of "Born On The Bayou," Garcia is tucked back on stage left, next to Steve Jordan's drums. Randy Jackson is on the other side of Jordan, and Weir is right next to Jackson. Although Garcia plays a very simple figure behind Fogerty for "Bayou," his eyes are on Jordan, and Jerry has a big, happy grin on his face. I'm not imagining this--Garcia has a big grin on his face throughout the entire set, and he mugs happily with Jordan as the drummer plays fills and accents through the set. Weir seems to be having the same kind of fun with Randy Jackson over on stage right. Fogerty is the star, front and center, but the band is getting their own groove on behind him.
The Fogerty set isn't a big deal to Deadheads, but it's hard to get around the fact that Garcia is having a great time. Whether Fogerty was "bigger" than Garcia is beside the point. Fogerty is a genuine star, with genuine hits, so he is the center of attention while he is on stage. For any singer less important than Fogerty--as in, just about all of them--Garcia could not hang back, but he can do so here. For 45 minutes, it's like Garcia is at the Keystone Berkeley or something, hanging out with his peers, playing the guitar parts that are dictated by the music, simple though they may be.
When they get to the third song, the unforgettable "Down On The Corner," Jerry is practically jumping up and down. In a small but fascinating moment, he steps up to the mic to sing the backing vocals. Now granted, the whole English speaking world knows that it goes "Down on the corner/Out in the street/Willie and The Poor Boys are playing/Bring a nickel, tap your feet," but Jerry actually steps up to sing. Over the years, I've seen and heard Garcia make lots of guest appearances with various artists. Yet how often did he sing the chorus of other people's hit songs?
After "Down On The Corner," Fogerty introduces the band, and Garcia's back is turned when it is his turn, as he's tuning up. Fogerty says "wake him up!' and Garcia turns around. "On guitar, Jerry Garcia!" Garcia grins and goes back to tuning, and Fogerty says "Genius at work." This is just musicians goofing around, albeit goofing around on stage in front of 40,000 people, but Garcia gets to be just another dude on stage, perhaps for one of the last times. A few months later (August 2, 1989), he would share the stage with Carlos Santana and Ruben Blades but that was for a TV special where he was a featured guest. At the Oakland Coliseum, he's just a hired gun playing a bunch of top 40 songs.
The event is clearly a big deal for Fogerty, as well. He puts on an A's cap, and says what an honor it is to play in his hometown in center field, and then, of course, plays "Centerfield," but Jerry seems to enjoy that too. Garcia joins Weir for the backing vocals for "Proud Mary" and "Midnight Special." Most interestingly, on "Bad Moon Rising," Weir sings the backing vocal, but Garcia does not step up to his mic. Nonetheless, he can be clearly seen mouthing the familiar lyrics, along with every other person in the Oakland Coliseum.
Clarence Clemons joins in for the encore. Bruce Springsteen was the biggest act in the country at the time, and having his chief henchman on stage made the set even more of an event. As a Grateful Dead footnote, I believe this was Clarence's first stage appearance with Garcia [update: my belief was incorrect. Clarence had played with the Grateful Dead on Dec 31 '88, and may have already played with the Garcia Band as well, back in March]. Clarence's second appearance with Garcia would come about 90 minutes later, when he joined the Grateful Dead for much of their first and second set at the Coliseum. Clemons would go on to play a number of shows with the Jerry Garcia Band, but on this May afternoon it was the first most public onstage intersection of Bruce's world with Jerry's.
The Dead played their headline sets later that day, and went on to even greater success. John Fogerty came to grips with his past, and generally speaking Creedence songs played some part in his future shows. Fogerty and the Dead only crossed paths one other time, however, once again and far more tragically engineered by Bill Graham. At the memorial concert in Golden Gate Park for Graham's death, on November 3, 1991, the Dead played the final set. Graham's deal with higher powers was good one last time, and despite being November, the weather was great. John Fogerty joined in for four songs, obviously with no rehearsal, but with plenty of confidence that it would work. The music was nice, but I don't think Jerry was grinning ear to ear this time.
As Deadheads, we always wanted certain things from Jerry. When Garcia didn't give us what we want, we grumbled, and thanks to the magic of tape and digital recording, we can collectively complain about it for decades. Good times! But we have to keep in mind that what we wanted wasn't always what Jerry wanted. For a Memorial Day Saturday, Garcia wanted to be in a band, playing songs the way they were written, singing his parts when they came around, grooving with the drummer and letting the front man do the heavy lifting. Did it ever come around again that Jerry got to play simple, popular songs with a front man with enough gravitational pull so that it wasn't All About Jerry? In that sense, Garcia's role as John Fogerty's backing musician is a last look backwards for Garcia, a time when he could just be in the band, if only for 45 minutes.

Global Tech Roundup: You Can Now Watch Some Netflix Content Without Paying
Hi Guys! It's the end of another busy week. Many interesting things happened across the tech space during the week. From stories of acquisitions to the launch of new products, fundraising and expansions.
Here is a quick roundup of some of the major stories around the globe you might have missed during the week.
Elon's new Neuralink device
Elon Musk's neuroscience startup, Neuralink has unveiled a new simplified design for an implant that will allow people to control a machine with thoughts (brain-to-machine interfaces).
The Neuralink device was simplified from the wearable bean-shaped device that would sit behind the ear to the size of a large coin that will be implanted in the skull.
The coin-sized chip measures at 23 millimetres by 8 millimetres, and has 1024 electrode "threads" attached to it that are implanted into the brain.
Musk unveiled the device alongside the robot that will perform the task of inserting it and a live demo of several pigs that have the device installed.
According to Musk, the in-brain device could enable humans with neurological conditions to control technology such as phones or computers with their thoughts. He also claims that with time the device will be able to solve neurological disorders from memory, hearing loss and blindness to paralysis, depression and brain damage.
India bans more Chinese apps
The Indian government is continuing its purge of Chinese apps. The purge began back in June when the government had initially banned 59 Chinese apps including TikTok.
According to the country's communications ministry, the ban is a targeted move to ensure safety, security, and sovereignty of Indian cyberspace.
PUBG is the most popular app that was banned with more than 40 million monthly active users.
The banned apps include search engine Baidu, business collaboration suite, WeChat Work, cloud storage service, Tencent Weiyun, and the game Rise of Kingdoms.
Netflix makes some movies free for Non-subscribers
Netflix has made some of its best-known Originals free for everyone. As a trial phase, the company has already been making select titles free in certain markets but today, it expanded that test across the globe.
Netflix content, like award-winning "Stranger Things," "Bird Box," "When They See Us" "Murder Mystery," "Elite," "The Two Popes," "Our Planet" and "Grace and Frankie" are now available and free to non-subscribers. However, in the case of series, only the first episodes can be accessed for free.
To watch these movies you do not need to create an account. It is accessible through web browsers and mobile browser for Android users but it is not available for iOS users.
TikTok sale placed on hold over algorithm questions
The hotly contested sale of TikTok to an American company is reportedly on hold as interested parties try to figure out if the app's secret algorithm will be included in the deal.
The sale was initially expected to be acquired as soon as this week but the Chinese government, angered by the sale efforts, has created a red tape that has significantly muddied the waters.
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce last week added 23 items to a list of technologies that require Beijing's approval before they can be exported. The list reportedly includes artificial intelligence technology that plays a key role in serving users personalized videos on their TikTok feeds.
Without the algorithm, acquiring TikTok would be like buying "a fancy car with a cheap engine," a source familiar with the negotiations told the Wall Street Journal.
As the September deadline for the sale of TikTok approaches, the question of whether the algorithm will be part of the deal or whether any US company will be willing to buy TikTok without it will be answered.
Jeff Bezos ex-wife is now world's richest woman
MacKenzie Scott, a novelist and philanthropist who recently divorced Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, is now the wealthiest woman in the world, with a net worth of over $66 billion.
Her wealth rose after the pandemic-fueled tech stock surge since the beginning of the year.
As part of her divorce, Scott got a 4% stake of Jeff's Amazon. Its share price has risen from nearly $2,000 to $3,500 since January.
On the billionaire list, Tesla CEO Elon Musk similarly overtook Facebook CEO and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to become the third-richest man in the world with a net worth of $115 billion.

The Women's List
With an introduction written and read by Toni Morrison, "American Masters: The Women's List" is an engaging, beautifully shot oral history of 50 years of women's equality, told through 15 candid tableaus by the women who lived them. These women are feminism's starting lineup and its pinch hitters; those who became household names and those who quietly blazed a trail.
Produced as part of PBS' "American Masters" series, " The Women's List" joins prior "List" documentaries shot by filmmaker and photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, whose style — more cinematic portraiture than documentary — lends a conversational, intimate tone to themes that may otherwise feel abstract. Amanda Duberman, The Huffington Post.
If there were a way to take a film and bottle it so it could be sipped quietly in moments of frustration, fatigue, failure or fear for a little dose of courage, calmness or confidence, I would want the elixir to be The Women's List, which premieres on Friday, Sept. 25 on PBS' American Masters. Carla Baranauckas, Women's Voives for Change.
Subjects include: Madeleine Albright, Gloria Allred, Laurie Anderson, Sara Blakeley, Margaret Cho, Edie Falco, Elizabeth Holmes, Betsey Johnson, Alicia Keys, Aimee Mullins, Nancy Pelosi, Rosie Perez, Shonda Rhimes, Wendy Williams and Nia Wordlaw.

Subject to making final investment decisions EDF have been given the go ahead by the European Union to commence building the new Hinkley Point C nuclear power station in Somerset.
The construction of Europe's largest infrastructure project has been estimated to cost £24.5 billion and will create 25,000 jobs. It is expected that 900 permanent jobs will be required for the running of the power station, once built.
The impact on the local economy will be massive and on-going. Benefits will accrue to the construction industry, transport companies, the housing market and down the supply chain to retail businesses, B&Bs and pubs and restaurants.
With a long history of supporting the scaffolding industry, together with catering and retail outlets, locally based Armada Asset Finance is already planning for the impact that will occur in demand for additional support.
Armada was the first asset lender to show the scaffolding industry the benefits of financing tubes and fittings rather than, as previously, using rental contracts with suppliers.
Since the 2007 financial crisis the demand for funding scaffolding has steadily increased, partly because of Armada's understanding of the industry and partly because of the speed of decision making. Armada is now perceived to be the UK's foremost lender to this sector of the construction industry.
After the dramatic and prolonged flooding in the Bridgwater area of Somerset last winter, this boost to the economy of the area will be a significant encouragement.
Yesterday was another of these mornings when you wake up to clear blue skies and shirtsleeve weather. Making the most of this glorious autumn we jumped in the car and drove up the A303 to Stourhead, the National Trust property just inside the Wiltshire border, close to Mere.
Strolling around the lakes with the stunning colours of the season is a balm to anyone's spirit. The setting for the Temple of Apollo, the Pantheon and the Grotto is breath taking at this time of year.
Uplifted and relaxed we headed west for thirty minutes, stopping in the ancient market town of Sherborne. Whether your interest is shopping or history there is so much to like in this jewel of Dorset. Georgian architecture is part of Sherborne's appeal, as is the castle, built by Sir Walter Raleigh or the Benedictine Abbey in the centre of town.
I digress, our table at The Green restaurant at the top of Cheap Street was waiting for us. Many times we have eaten at The Green and always been delighted but yesterday was special. We both started with the trio of Lyme Bay crab and truffle tuille followed by chargrilled scallops and a side order of marjoram chips. To finish, it was a no brainer, ginger sticky toffee pudding and espresso. Believe me, Sasha Matkevich's chips are every bit as good as Tom Kerridge's triple cooked chips – and we've enjoyed both.
The food and service were superb and deserving of a Michelin star. They should have been included in last week's 2015 Guide. Come on Michelin, there are too many inconsistencies in your star awards.
With full tummies and a smile on our faces we left The Green and crossed the road and entered the tardis, otherwise known as The Toy Box – room after room of every delight for first borns to fifteens. This is the best toy shop west of Regent Street. On the way back to the car we looked like Julia Roberts from Pretty Woman.
If you can make it, get yourself to Sherborne next Monday, 13th October when they celebrate Pack Monday Fair. The centre of town is given over to street traders, both local and from France, Germany and beyond.
From time to time we come across a person or situation that stops us in our tracks, makes us think and puts our daily trivia into perspective.
Major Steve McCulley is a lesson for us all. After seventeen years in the Royal Marines Steve's luck ran out. In 2011 he was serving in Afghanistan when he was blown up three times, incurring multiple life-threatening injuries.
Following a period of rehabilitation at Headley Court, Steve decided to get on with life and follow his passion for cycling. With the support of Help for Heroes he established a company to manufacture bespoke carbon bikes, tailored to fit the individual's specifications and requirements.
Over a period of forty years Armada has lost count of the number of people who have asked us to assist them in setting up a new venture and move their lives forward.
Not for our people to sit around bemoaning their lot. Daily, people are taking their courage and determination and hard work and following their dream.
Steve McCulley is an inspiration to all of us who are thinking about our futures.

France: Investigations open into disappearance of Senegalese student
An investigation is underway in France following the disappearance of a Senegalese student. Diary Sow, attends a prestigious Parisian school and was reported missing on January 4. Her disturbing disappearance is raising concern in Senegal and France, according to sources.
The 20-year old did not show up at the start of the Christmas holidays at the Louis-Le-Grand high school. Diary Sow is known as "the best student in Senegal". Her disappearance was reported by the Senegal consul on January 7.
Thierno Laye Fall is president of the Federation of Senegalese Students and Trainees of France. He says ''we have to do what is necessary to find her.''
"We're counting on the French and Senegalese authorities, too, because today it must be everyone's fight. Just because of her young age and her brilliance, she is a young woman who can serve not only in Senegal but also in the whole world, so we have to think about it and do what is necessary to find her", Fall said.
The young woman's godfather, who is former Minister of Education and currently in charge of Hydraulics in Senegal, Serigne Mbaye Thiam tweeted on Sunday: ''Thank you for your mobilization for #DiarySow and let's keep hope."
The #findDiarySow has been created on social media to spread the word about her disappearance. The young woman authored a novel: "the face of an angel'' (L'Harmattan) in 2020.

The UK-based Nexus Network aims to foster debate, research and collaborations across the areas of food, energy, water and the environment between academic researchers, and decision-makers in government, business and civil society.
Its inaugural annual conference in November 2014 explored "What works at the nexus? New connections in food, energy, water and environment" with 16 panel speakers.
In a panel session entitled 'The global politics of the nexus?' Nicholas Hildyard of The Corner House highlighted connections in the nexus of food, energy, water and environment that were missing in this conference. Imagining the responses of those actually affected by these connections, he drew attention to insecurities created by dominant concepts of food, energy and water security, and how people's responses are increasingly categorised as security threats.
Risk sharing in a context of unequal power relations is a weird concept given that neoliberal policies have stripped away collective forms of risk management and dumped risks on poorer people. Risk as a commodity is now the largest traded commodity in the world. Speculation in risk markets – derivative markets – has led to price increases, denying people access to food, much as finance and other mechanisms deny them access to food, water and environment.
Other connections missing from the conference were privatisation; public-private partnerships; inequality; infrastructure as asset class and income stream; capital and its current crisis of accumulation; class and labour.
In sum, relationships of power need to be addressed if one is to address issues of food, water, energy and environment. The nexus that needs challenging is that of power, accumulation, extraction and conflict with the commons – the commons understood as the collective right of all to survival.

Abstractions for a Summer Day – Rob Calvert
September 6, 2011 by Pat Rogers Artist Profiles, HAMPTONS
The sum of summer can be found by noticing moments and adding days until they equal an entire season. Rob Calvert decided capture these moments and combine them with memories from the past to make abstract art.
The result is the solo exhibition, "Summer's Time" on view at Canio's Books in Sag Harbor.
July 28 by Rob Calvert
Each piece in the show beckons the viewer to come closer and take a look. The art is nuanced with consciously-made brushstrokes and marks to capture the essence of light, mood and quality of specific days in the summer.
"In summer, I believe the movements of atmosphere and temperature are more apparent and dramatic than at other times, and thus our emotions and memories are correspondingly more pronounced," Calvert said.
August 15 by Rob Calvert
Nearly all of the art was made within the last eight months. There are paintings, solar plate etchings and artworks that combine both. Where painting and etching meet, a melding is created by carving space from the painting so the etching can occupy the same plane. In doing so, harmony and cooperation is fostered instead of one artwork obscuring the other, Calvert said.
"It's a subtle difference but an important one," he said.
Employing different scales in the composition and framing enhances the viewer's experience of place, feelings and reflection, Calvert said. "The participant is both grounded and adrift. Only then am I on the right track," he writes in his artist statement.
13.00 July 20 by Rob Calvert
Besides the visual difference, titles help distinguish between paintings and artworks with a painting and etching or etchings. Titles for paintings list a specific day. Titles for artworks with paintings and etchings begin with the time, digitally expressed, before the month and day.
The additional information is a nod to scientific cataloging and to the glut of information available with a few keystrokes or virtual page searches.
"The particular format and title may suggest material subject to analysis or measurement, as if data were to be extracted, as if it were information," Calvert said. "It may suggest this material is free of ambiguity or not requiring interpretation and thus meeting the needs of our data-driven world."
22.00 September 22 By Rob Calvert
Ultimately, it may be emotion and memory that trumps the specificity implied in the works.
Those searching for multiple meanings will not be disappointed: some dates have historical significance as a way to combine our collective past with the present and enhance the conceptual layers in the work. Events include the start of the Spanish Civil War (July 17, 1936) and D-Day (June 6, 1944).
"Summer's Time" is Calvert's first solo show in the area. A residence of Sag Harbor, Calvert gave up practicing architecture in 2004 to devote his attention full time to art. The switch has allowed creativity to roam and made possible the launch of his life's work, Calvert said. He had been making art since the early 1980's before making the leap.
"The head space to be in for art is not something you turn off and on," Calvert said. "The two worlds have different value equations that once adopted, fundamentally alter the way one looks at the world and sees with the heart."
Having practiced architecture for 25 years brings advantages to artmaking by incorporating architecture's differing point of view and purpose. He posed the following to illustrate:
"Architecture expresses what it's like to exist, and to be human, by enabling the asking of the question: What does it mean to dwell?"
Art begs the question: "What does it mean to be fully alive by having engaged the heart and the head in a more meaningful way and through the sharing of that experience with others?"
Rob Calvert amid "Summer's Time" at Canio's Books
BASIC FACTS: "Summer's Time: A solo show by Rob Calvert" remains on view through Sept. 7, 2011 at Canio's Books, 290 Main Street, Sag Harbor. www.caniosbooks.com
Rob Calvert has exhibited in Virgina, North Carolina, Washington, DC and New York. Locally, his art has been shown at Guild Hall in East Hampton and the Crazy Monkey Gallery in Amagansett. His work was included the annual Springs Invitational in 2011 and 2009 at Ashawagh Hall.

Q: How to setup a Raspberry Pi to receive webhooks I am currently working on a little project that will have my raspberry pi light up a unicornhat whenever a new order is created on Shopify. I have never worked with webhooks nor web servers, much less Flask or Zappa before, and I was curious as to how I would set this up without exposing the pi to the open internet on my home network.
I had read that this would be simple to do using Amazon's Lambda in conjunction with Flask and something called Zappa, however I am rather lost. This is what I have so far:
from time import sleep
from flask import Flask, request
import unicornhat as unicorn
import light.py

app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/', methods = ['POST'])

def index():
    data = request.get_json()
    if data['orders/create'] == null:
        light.light() //lights uHat on new order creation
    return "Success"

Any pointers would be much appreciated, I've been banging my head over this for several weeks (in my spare time) and my inexperience in webdev shows. I'm not even sure if I read Shopify's API information correctly for it to even be listening for the correct webhook.
Thanks again!

A: Shopify has a Python module, shopifyapi that allows you to register your webhook.
import shopify

shop_url = "https://%s:%s@%s.myshopify.com/admin" % (API_KEY, PASSWORD, SHOP_NAME)
shopify.ShopifyResource.set_site(shop_url)
shopify.Session.setup(api_key=API_KEY, secret=SHARED_SECRET)

new_webhook = shopify.Webhook()
new_webhook.address = 'http://your.pi.address'
new_webhook.topic = 'orders/create'
new_webhook.save()

Once that's done any orders created will call the webhook to send order data to your pi's address.
For additional events you can use as a trigger see the API docs.
Your Flask app could accept posts like this:
from flask import Flask, request
import light

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/', methods = ['POST'])
def index():
    data = request.json  # optional
    light.blink()
    return "Success"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

For what you're trying to accomplish you don't need to do anything with the order data,
but it might be nice to inspect and/or log.

Der Athletic Club, im deutschsprachigen Raum bekannt als Athletic Bilbao, ist ein Fußballverein aus dem Baskenland in Spanien, der in der Primera División spielt.

Seit der Ligagründung der Primera División 1928 ist der Verein ununterbrochen erstklassig und gewann die Meisterschaft achtmal. In der "ewigen Tabelle" liegt Athletic auf dem vierten Platz und ist neben Real Madrid und dem FC Barcelona die einzige Mannschaft, die nie absteigen musste. Der spanische Pokal (Copa del Rey) wurde 24-mal gewonnen; erst 2009 wurde diese Bestmarke vom FC Barcelona übertroffen.

Der Beiname der Spieler in Spanien "Los Leones" (die Löwen) leitet sich vom Namenspatron des Stadions "San Mamés", dem Heiligen Mamas, ab. Mamas war ein Christ, den die Römer den Löwen zum Fraß vorgeworfen hatten. Die Löwen fraßen Mamas jedoch nicht und ließen ihn unversehrt, weshalb er später heiliggesprochen wurde. Das San Mamés wurde neben einer Kirche erbaut und wird darum auch die "Kathedrale des Fußballs" genannt.

Athletic Bilbao steht für die Politik, nur Spieler einzusetzen, die entweder in den baskischen Provinzen Bizkaia, Gipuzkoa, Álava und Navarra (alle Spanien), Labourd, Soule und Nieder-Navarra (alle Frankreich) geboren wurden oder in der Jugend eines Fußballklubs aus diesen Provinzen ausgebildet wurden. Daher konzentriert man sich auch eher auf die eigene Jugend anstelle von externen Transfers, sodass sich die erste Mannschaft traditionell zum größten Teil aus Spielern der hauseigenen Akademie Lezama zusammenstellt. Bilbaos Spieler legen eine große Loyalität zu dem Verein an den Tag und verbringen teilweise ihre gesamte Karriere im rot-weißen Trikot (Rojiblancos).

Geschichte

Gründung
Der Fußball wurde in Bilbao von zwei verschiedenen Gruppen junger Spieler eingeführt, die beide Verbindungen zum "Mutterland des Fußballs" (England) hatten: britische Stahl- und Werftarbeiter und baskische Studenten, die von britischen Schulen zurückkehrten.

Im späten 19. Jahrhundert war Bilbao eine der wichtigsten Hafenstädte Spaniens und mit seinen Minen und Werften eine der bedeutendsten Industrieregionen des Landes. Die Stadt war ein Motor der spanischen Wirtschaft und zog deshalb eine Vielzahl von ausländischen Arbeitskräften an. Darunter waren viele Minenarbeiter aus dem Nordosten Englands sowie Werftarbeiter aus Sunderland, Southampton und Portsmouth. Diese britischen Arbeiter brachten den Fußball mit und gründeten in den frühen 1890er Jahren den Bilbao Football Club. Währenddessen gingen baskische Studenten den umgekehrten Weg, gingen nach Großbritannien, um dort Universitäten zu besuchen. Hier kamen sie mit dem Fußball in Berührung, den sie nach ihrer Rückkehr importierten. 1898 gründeten Studenten des Gymnasiums Zamacois den Athletic Club, in Anlehnung an die englische Schreibweise.

1902 schickten beide Vereine eine gemeinsame Mannschaft (genannt Vizcaya) ins Rennen um die erstmals ausgetragene Copa del Rey. Sie kehrten mit der Trophäe zurück, nachdem der FC Barcelona im Finale besiegt worden war. Deshalb entschloss man sich 1903, beide Vereine zum Athletic Club zu vereinigen.

Das Datum der Vereinsgründung ist Teil reger Diskussionen unter den Fußball-Historikern. Der Verein gibt 1898 als Gründungsjahr an, während Andere 1901 oder 1903 als Jahr der Vereinsgründung bezeichnen.

Erfolgreiche Jahre (1903 bis 1941)

1903 gewann der neu gegründete Athletic Club wiederum die Copa del Rey und wurde auch im folgenden Jahr zum Sieger erklärt, nachdem der Gegner Club Español de Madrid nicht angetreten war. Nach einem weiteren Sieg 1911 gewann Bilbao zwischen 1914 und 1916 den Pokal dreimal in Folge. Star dieses Teams war der legendäre Stürmer Pichichi, der am 21. August 1913 das erste Tor überhaupt im San Mamés schoss und im Finale der Copa del Rey von 1915 einen Hattrick folgen ließ. Heute erhält der beste Torjäger der spanischen Liga die Trophäe, die nach Pichichi (Pichichi-Trophäe) benannt ist. 1912 wurde dann die Regel ins Leben gerufen, wonach nur Basken für die Mannschaft spielen dürfen.

Als 1928 die Primera División ins Leben gerufen wurde, nahmen neben Athletic mit Real Sociedad, Real Unión Irún und Arenas Club de Getxo drei weitere baskische Mannschaften daran teil. Als 1930 Deportivo Alavés folgte, waren fünf von zehn Klubs der Liga aus dem Baskenland. 1929 übernahm der Engländer Fred Pentland zum zweitenmal das Traineramt bei Bilbao (erstmals 1921 bis 1927) und revolutionierte die Mannschaft, indem er ihr das Kurzpassspiel beibrachte. Er führte die Mannschaft zu zwei Double-Siegen 1930 und 1931 sowie vier Siegen in der Copa del Rey zwischen 1930 und 1933. In dieser Zeit wurde dem FC Barcelona beim 12:1 dessen höchste Niederlage aller Zeiten zugefügt. Nach zwei weiteren Meistertiteln 1934 und 1936 hatte Bilbao in den ersten acht Jahren der Liga viermal den ersten Platz belegt.

Atlético Bilbao (1941 bis 1974)

Nach einem Erlass des spanischen Diktators Franco musste der Verein 1941 seinen Namen in Atlético Bilbao ändern, da ausländische Bezeichnungen in der Liga verboten waren. Im gleichen Jahr debütierte mit Zarra der beste Torjäger der Vereinsgeschichte. In dreizehn Jahren schoss er 333 Pflichtspieltore. Ein weiterer großer Spieler dieser Ära war José Luis Panizo. 1943 gewann die Mannschaft nochmals ein Double, 1944 und 1945 jeweils den Pokal (inzwischen Copa del Generalisimo).

In den Fünfzigern konnte der Verein mit der legendären Angriffsreihe um Zarra, José Luis Panizo, Rafael Iriondo, Venancio Pérez García und Agustín Gaínza aufwarten. Nachdem mit Ferdinand Daučík einer der besten Trainer des Landes Athletic übernommen hatte, ließen weitere Titel nicht lange auf sich warten: Double 1956, Pokal 1955 und 1958.

In den 1960er und 1970er Jahren dominierten Madrid und Barcelona Spaniens Fußball, während Bilbao sich meist im Mittelfeld der Tabelle wiederfand. Nur die Copa del Generalisimo konnte 1969 und 1973 noch zweimal errungen werden.

Rückkehr zu Athletic Bilbao und Politisierung
Im Dezember 1976 traf Bilbao auf den Lokalrivalen Real Sociedad aus San Sebastián. Vor Anpfiff nahmen Bilbaos Torwart-Legende José Ángel Iribar und Sociedads Kapitän Ignacio Kortabarria die Ikurriña (Flagge des Baskenlandes) und steckten sie feierlich in den Anstoßpunkt. Das war die erste öffentliche Zurschaustellung der 40 Jahre lang verbotenen Flagge nach dem Tod Francos.

Einen weiteren Meilenstein der Vereinsgeschichte bildete die Teilnahme am Finale des UEFA-Pokals im Jahr 1977. Auf dem Weg dorthin hatte die Mannschaft mit dem FC Barcelona und dem AC Mailand zwei europäische Spitzenvereine ausgeschaltet. Allerdings verlor man das Finale schließlich nach 2:2-Endstand nach Hin- und Rückspiel aufgrund der Auswärtstorregel gegen Juventus Turin.

Die Ära Clemente
1981 wurde Javier Clemente neuer Cheftrainer, der um die Veteranen Dani und Andoni Goikoetxea junge Spieler wie Santiago Urquiaga, Miguel De Andres, Ismael Urtubi, Estanislao Argote und Andoni Zubizarreta einbaute. Dies war eine hervorragende Mischung, denn endlich konnte man Bilbao wieder zu den Spitzenmannschaften zählen. 1983 wurde die Mannschaft Meister, 1984 folgte sogar das Double. Clemente ließ sehr defensiv spielen, wofür er heftig kritisiert wurde, was jedoch effektiv war. Außerdem waren die Basken für ihr aggressives und hartes Spiel bekannt, was vor allem durch den Verteidiger Goikoetxea personifiziert wurde. Nach Clementes Abschied verließen auch viele Topspieler den Verein; daraufhin konnte kein weiterer bedeutender Titel mehr gewonnen werden, obwohl bekannte und erfolgreiche Trainer in Bilbao arbeiteten, u. a. José Ángel Iribar, Howard Kendall, Jupp Heynckes oder Javier Irureta.

Die Ära Fernández
Vergeblich versuchte der Verein an die Erfolge der frühen Achtziger anzuknüpfen, was erst annähernd wieder unter Luis Fernández gelang. Er führte die Mannschaft 1998 zur Vizemeisterschaft und somit erstmals in die Champions League. Fernández profitierte von einer gelockerten Personalpolitik, die es ihm erlaubte, Spieler zu verpflichten, die in Jugendmannschaften auf baskischem Territorium ausgebildet wurden (Patxi Ferreira, Biurrun). Erstmals wurde mit Bixente Lizarazu ein Baske aus dem französischen Teil der Region eingesetzt. Wie immer lieferte auch die Jugendabteilung mit Julen Guerrero einen hervorragenden Einzelspieler.

Jüngste Entwicklungen

Danach wurde es allmählich ruhiger um den Verein aus dem Baskenland, der wieder im Mittelfeld der Liga verschwand. Vor der Saison 2005/06 musste Athletic den Verlust der beiden Leistungsträger Asier del Horno und Santiago Ezquerro hinnehmen, die zum FC Chelsea bzw. dem FC Barcelona wechselten. Athletic konnte sich erst am 37. Spieltag vor dem Abstieg retten. Vor der Saison 2006/07 beendete Urgestein Julen Guerrero seine aktive Karriere und wechselte in den Trainerstab.

Da Coach Javier Clemente mit den eingekauften Spielern nicht einverstanden war, trennte man sich und stellte Félix Sarriugarte als Nachfolger ein, der jedoch nach der halben Saison durch José Manuel Esnal (Mané) ersetzt wurde, da er nicht die notwendigen Ergebnisse erzielen konnte. Der Verein sicherte schließlich erst am letzten Spieltag mit einem 2:0-Heimsieg gegen UD Levante den Klassenerhalt. Die Rückkehr von Verteidiger Asier del Horno vor der Saison 2007/08 auf Leihbasis vom FC Valencia brachte nicht den gewünschten Erfolg, sodass die Kaufoption nicht genutzt wurde. Trotzdem wurde diese Saison letztlich erfolgreicher als die vorhergehende, die Qualifikation für den UI-Cup wurde erst am letzten Spieltag verpasst. Mit dieser Saison begann der endgültige Durchbruch des schon lange als großes Sturmtalent gehandelten Fernando Llorente, der es schließlich auf elf Saisontore brachte und zur Schlüsselfigur in Athletics Offensivspiel wurde. Im Herbst 2008 wurde er, ebenso wie Abwehrspieler Andoni Iraola, erstmals für die spanische Fußballnationalmannschaft nominiert. Am Ende der Spielzeit 2008/09 stand das Erreichen des Endspiels in der Copa del Rey, das man gegen den FC Barcelona, zuvor Meister und Champions League-Sieger geworden, verlor. Dadurch qualifizierte sich die Mannschaft für die Teilnahme an der Qualifikation zur neugegründeten UEFA Europa League, in der man sich nach Spielen gegen Tromsø IL qualifizierte. In einer Gruppe mit FK Austria Wien, Werder Bremen – im Vorjahr UEFA-Pokal-Finalist – und Nacional Funchal belegte man den zweiten Platz hinter Werder und schied im Sechzehntelfinale gegen den RSC Anderlecht aus.

Am 25. Juni 2010 wurde mit dem Bau des San Mamés Barria-Stadions begonnen, das seit der Fertigstellung 2013 53.332 Zuschauern Platz bietet. Am 9. Mai 2012 standen die Basken erstmals seit 1977 wieder in einem Europapokal-Endspiel. In den Runden zuvor hatte man sich gegen FC Red Bull Salzburg, Paris Saint-Germain und Metalist Charkiw (alle Gruppenphase) und Lokomotive Moskau (Sechzehntelfinale) sowie namhafte Gegner wie Manchester United (Achtelfinale), FC Schalke 04 (Viertelfinale) und Sporting Lissabon (Halbfinale) durchgesetzt. Im Hinspiel gegen Schalke 04 wandelte man einen zwischenzeitlichen 1:2-Rückstand innerhalb der letzten zwanzig Minuten in ein 4:2. Die Mannschaft musste sich im Finale der UEFA Europa League unter ihrem argentinischen Trainer Marcelo Bielsa dem Ligarivalen Atlético Madrid mit 0:3 geschlagen geben.

Im August 2014 qualifizierten sich die Basken erstmals seit 1998 wieder für die Gruppenphase der UEFA Champions League; gegen den SSC Neapel setzte man sich in den Play-offs durch.

Ähnlich umstritten wie das genaue Datum der Vereinsgründung ist die Herkunft der Vereinsfarben. Die ersten Trikots waren blau-weiß, änderten sich jedoch 1910 in rot-weiße Längsstreifen. Für diesen Wechsel werden drei unterschiedliche Theorien angeführt:
 Der AFC Sunderland und der FC Southampton spielten in identischen Trikots und wurden von den englischen Fußballern in Bilbao einfach kopiert.
 Athletic schickte ein Mitglied nach Großbritannien, um blau-weiße Trikots zu kaufen. Dieser konnte jedoch keine auftreiben und kehrte deshalb mit rot-weiß gestreiften aus Southampton zurück.
 Die wahrscheinlichste Theorie besagt, dass rot-weiße Trikots genommen wurden, da diese sehr billig aus Matratzenüberzügen hergestellt werden konnten.

Athletic war eine der letzten Mannschaften im europäischen Vereinsfußball, die ohne Sponsor auf dem Trikot spielten. Erst 2004/05 kamen in der Copa del Rey und im UEFA-Pokal Trikots mit grünem Euskadi-Aufdruck zum Einsatz. Sponsor war die baskische Regionalregierung (Rot, Weiß und Grün sind die Nationalfarben).

Im Jahr 2008 kehrte die Vereinsführung endgültig von dieser Politik ab, und Petronor (Tochterunternehmen des Ölkonzerns Repsol) zahlt über zwei Millionen Euro Sponsorengeld per annum.

Wissenswertes
Iker Muniain ist durch seinen Treffer zum 2:0 am 5. August 2009 im Europa-League-Qualifikationsspiel gegen BSC Young Boys mit 16 Jahren und 229 Tagen jüngster Torschütze seit 94 Jahren von Athletic Bilbao. Weiterhin die Nummer Eins in dieser Hinsicht ist Txomin Acedo, dessen Rekorde vielerorts in Vergessenheit geraten sind und dem dies bei seinem Debüt für den Athletic Club mit nur 16 Jahren und 134 Tagen gelang.

Researchers from the Ohio State University Medical Center say that a new experimental device that delivers a strong electrical current creating an intense magnetic field for about one millisecond against the patients head, could be an effective treatment for migraines. The device appears to be effective in eliminating nausea and vomiting when administered during the onset of the migraine.
According to a study published in the today's online edition of the British Journal of Sports Medicine, drinking cherry juice may help prevent the pain in the repair of muscle caused by weight lifting.
Amazing breakthrough in stem cell research may lead to a treatment for paralysis. This is extremely hopeful news for those suffering from spinal cord injuries. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have injected neurons near the spinal cords of rats that had been paralyzed by a virus, and found that the rats were able to "partially" move their legs.
The procedure is not as simple as just injecting stem cells into a paralyzed rat. The stem cells would just wonder aimlessly thought the body without the right mixture of growth factors and other chemicals (pharmacologic agents). This recipe of ingredients will entice the stem cells to form the appropriate connections.
Do you or someone you know suffer from chronic headaches or Migraines? Usually these people have seen a variety of different doctors, with little if any relief. Their symptoms are being treated, but the cause of the problem still persists. Ever thought about seeing your dentist for a migraine?
Researchers have evaluated several studies and have concluded that some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may pose a risk of cardiovascular events similar to Cox-2 Inhibitors like Vioxx. The study, published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), combined all the available randomized data from 138 trials for form a conclusion. This meta-analysis included 140,000 patients.
Researchers say that a combination of antiviral drug medications will reduce nerve pain following a shingles infection. The study, led by Dianna Quan, MD and her colleagues at the University of Colorado and Health Sciences Center, Denver, administered the antiviral therapy to 15 patients (12 men and three women).
There appears to be more bad news for Merck & Co. after a Canadian Medical Association Journal said the drug may raise the risk of heart attack for patients who took Vioxx for less than 2 weeks. Investigative journalist Evelyn Pringle reports that the study published online this month, found that more than 25% of 239 patients who had heart attacks did so in less than 13 days of being on the drug.
This is more promising than previous research, according to the University of Rochester researchers in New York. Rats that received the cell transplants also walked normally after two weeks.
The team, led by surgery Professor M Soledad Cepeda of Javeriana University School of Medicine in Bogota in Colombia, reviewed the results of 14 studies in which 489 surgery patients listened to pre-recorded music. The post-operative patients rated their pain intensity.
A recent report presented at the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeon's annual meeting in Chicago by Steven M. Kurtz who is with a Philadelphia-based engineering and scientific consulting firm said that there is a dramatic increase in the demand for artificial joints for a number of reasons.
Multiple research studies are coming to the same conclusion that excess body fat causes an inflammation response in their body that can be deadly.
A recent report in the International Journal of Obesity by researchers from the University of Warwick Medical School found that the biggest health risk to overweight and obese people is the killer inflammation response created from the excess body fat.
The Mayo Clinic completed a study recently that found that people with Rheumatoid arthritis do not have an increased risk of hearing loss compared to the general population. This contrasts previous research that found a link between rheumatoid arthritis and hearing problems. This research report will be presented today at the American Auditory Society annual meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona.
UCLA researchers have found that both body weight-supported treadmill training was just as effective as traditional rehabilitation for restoring movement in patients that are partially paralyzed. The study also found that high numbers from both treatment groups achieved functional walking speeds within six months.
The researchers expected the body weight-supported treadmill treatment to be superior. But the study author, Dr. Bruce H. Dobkin, said "we found no significant difference" in the treatments. Dr. Dobkin is professor of neurology and medical director of the Neurologic Rehabilitation and Research Program at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA.
Researchers from the Harvard Medical School found out why special forms of gold, platinum and other types of medicinal metals help treat autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. They found that these metal help to strip away bacteria and virus particles from a key immune system protein. The findings are reported in the February 27th issue of Nature Chemical Biology.
New research has found a possible cause for Crohn's Disease which may lead to a treatment. The researchers found that when patients with Crohn's were injected with harmless bacteria, their body showed a reduced blood flow. Normally blood flow would increase in response to the bacteria.
A health Journalist and author recently announced that there are no safe over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers. Virtually every home medicine cabinet in America has a bottle of pain-relieving pills that can cause serious problems, even when properly used. Millions of Americans live with chronic pain and rely upon over-the-counter pain relievers to alleviate discomfort mostly caused by joint, nerve or headache pain.
A randomized controlled trial first published on the online in the British Medical Journal, found that Acupressure of the thumbs and fingertips seemed to be more beneficial at reducing lower back pain compared to physical therapy.
Acupressure is a technique that many chiropractors use along with acupuncture. Acupressure is applying pressure to certain parts of the body; in this case it was the fingertips and thumbs used for pain reduction in the lower back. Acupuncture is similar except needles are used to stimulate the nervous system. In this study the researchers focused on Acupressure compared to physical therapy.
A study published in the February 2006 issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism found that rats treated with muscle-derived stem cells helped to repair torn cartilage.

Rainbow Trout are the best known trout in the world. Their fighting quality as a sports fish made them a favorite for most Fly Fisherman around the World. The Rainbow Trout originated in Western America. In about 1885 they were stocked all over the world in suitable cold water habitats.
The coloration of the Rainbow varies according to the size of the body of water they live in. Small stream Rainbow are the most colorful. Because of camouflage adaptability of the fish they often have parr marks to blend in with the environment, They often have the parr marks up to 17" and they have the bright colorful rainbow stripes. In some areas like the Deschutes they are called Redsides and have a very red side especially on the male at spawning time. The high altitude lakes have Golden trout, with their very distinctive golden hue on the side. In Alaska they have the Leopard Trout with its very unusual interlocking spotting pattern.
All of these factors contribute to the variations of the Rainbow trout, and make it a challenge for carving and painting.

Q: Spivak's 'Calculus', 5-21(b): Is there an easier/shorter way? Some personal background: I'll be going into my second year as a maths undergraduate in September of this year, and I'm currently working my way through Spivak's Calculus. While $\epsilon$-$\delta$ arguments have been introduced in the course, certainly nothing like this question has been thrown at me yet, but I enjoy the challenge. In the Supplement, Spivak merely says the result is obvious, and gives no working; while it is intuitive, I wouldn't say this answer occurred to me immediately.
The problem is as follows:
Prove that if $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}|f(x)|=\infty$ and $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}g(x)$ does not exist, then $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}f(x)g(x)$ also does not exist.
Prior to this, in Problem 21-5(a), it is proved that the same result holds if instead we assume $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}f(x)$ exists and is nonzero, but I don't think this result is immediately relevant.
Please note that 'the limit exists' is taken to mean that function tends to some finite limit.
My answer is as follows:
Suppose $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}|f(x)|=\infty$ and $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}f(x)g(x)=l$, for some $l\in\mathbb{R}$. Let $\epsilon>0$.
By hypotheses, we can find $\delta_{1},\delta_{2}>0$ such that $|f(x)|>(\epsilon + |l|)/\epsilon$ whenever $0<|x|<\delta_{1}$, and $|f(x)g(x)-l|<\epsilon$ whenever $0<|x|<\delta_{2}$. Note that $(\epsilon + |l|)/\epsilon\geq1>0$.
By the Triangle Inequality, we have $|f(x)g(x)| \leq |f(x)g(x)-l|+|l|$ always, so that $|f(x)g(x)|-|l| \leq |f(x)g(x)-l|$ always.
Also, when $0<|x|<\delta_{1}$, we have $|g(x)|(\epsilon+|l|)/\epsilon < |f(x)g(x)|$.
Hence, if we take $\delta = \mathrm{min}\{\delta_{1},\delta_{2}\}$, then:
\begin{eqnarray*}
0 < |x| < \delta & \Rightarrow & |f(x)g(x)-l| < \epsilon \\
& \Rightarrow & |f(x)g(x)| - |l| < \epsilon \\
& \Rightarrow & |f(x)g(x)| < \epsilon + |l| \\
& \Rightarrow & |g(x)|\cdot\frac{\epsilon+|l|}{\epsilon} < \epsilon + |l| \\
& \Rightarrow & |g(x)| < \epsilon.
\end{eqnarray*}
Hence, $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}g(x)=0$.
Thus, if $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}|f(x)|=\infty$, then $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}g(x)=0$ if $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}f(x)g(x)$ exists. Therefore, if $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}g(x)$ does not exist, then $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}f(x)g(x)$ also does not exist, provided $\lim_{x\rightarrow0}|f(x)|=\infty$.
My questions to you: is there any shorter way of proving this, given the tools available (knowledge of definitions and inequalities, mostly)? More importantly, is my solution correct? Any feedback at all would be appreciated.

A: Yes:
$$
g(x) = \frac{f(x)g(x)}{f(x)}.
$$
The denominator tends to infinity,${}^1$ and if the numerator tends to a limit, then...
${}^1$Take absolute values if you really want to be precise.

A: I'm going to claim the result is false, since the author is allowing $\infty$ as a limit in the statement of the problem. A countexample is
$$f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2}, x\ne 0, g(x) = 1, x > 0, g(x) = 2, x< 0.$$
Then $\lim_{x\to 0} f(x) = \infty,\lim_{x\to 0} g(x)$ doesn't exist, but $\lim_{x\to 0} f(x)g(x) = \infty.$
