Steel Panther: Still Rockin' in Sequins & Spandex
By Mocha Charlie on October 28, 2015@254mochacharlie
Steel Panther at Showbox SoDo (Photo: Mocha Charlie)
Steel Panther once again drew crowds of fans, who took the opportunity to pull out their '80's attire and head on down to Showbox SoDo for an evening last week. The band members are still not shy about gracing the stage in tight spandex, sequin scarves, big hair, and belting out racy lyrics set to '80s glam metal tones. And fans love it! With hands of horns held high, fans sang and whipped their hair throughout the set.
Steel Panther's music style has been described as raw power, instilled with what the '80's generation referred to as "classic heavy metal." They continue to make fun of themselves and that generation, the one to which they are using as their muse, by singing parody-type lyrics that blend nicely with that music style. Fans dig it. They come dressed up, and ready to party.
As for the band, they poke fun of each other, and those in the crowd, but it's all in good fun. For this "The Well Hung Over Tour," they've invited Skelator to open the show. Lead singer, Jason Conde-Houston, wields a gigantic sword on stage, and at times whips his immense mane around so much that from certain vantage points looks as if his head is completely shrouded and even looks as if it's engulfed his leather jacket. Their music style is similar to Panther, poking fun at popular iconic elements from the '80s as well as singing about what may be more traditional themes from that genre such as death, blood, and metal.
The Steel Panther guys have busted out some brand new spandex for the occasion. You'll still see bassist, Lexxi Foxx stop mid song to gather his wits and apply multiple layers of hairspray and lip gloss at the vanity mirror side stage. You'll still see guitarist Satchel rockin his guitar riffs while keeping his wig in place perfectly, bound by one of his many headbands. And, although he's hidden behind the kit, amid stage fog and dimmed lights, drummer Stix Zadinia will be keeping the beat throughout the evening. As for lead singer Michael Starr, he'll be shaking his . . . sequined scarves around while interacting with the rest of the guys on stage, and those super-fans that grip onto the barricade in the front of the crowd.
If you think that '80's music is going the way of the dinosaur, the fact that the band have tour stops already booked through next summer may be an indication that at least for Steel Panther, they're not moving into extinction any time soon.

Book Excerpt Details Ugly Split Between OZZY And SHARON OSBOURNE
According to The Pulse Of Radio, an excerpt from Sharon Osbourne's new memoir that was published by U.K. tabloid The Sun over the weekend reveals just how ugly it got between her and Ozzy earlier this year when Sharon found out that her husband of 30 years had relapsed into drug and alcohol abuse.
Sharon writes that she found out about the BLACK SABBATH singer's drug abuse on their 30th wedding anniversary when she saw texts on Ozzy's phone asking people to supply him with drugs and and saying, "Don't tell the old girl." Sharon confronted Ozzy and he promised to go to rehab, but ended up fleeing to the U.K. instead.
Sharon retaliated by selling off all of Ozzy's prized cars, recalling. "There was no way I was going to risk him getting in one of them while he was drunk and hurting someone . . . Ozzy says now that it proved to be the most expensive drink he's ever had."
When the couple reunited in Los Angeles a few weeks later, Ozzy was so "cocky and arrogant" that Sharon says she "snapped," demanding a divorce and asking for 100,000 British pounds — around $162,000 — a month in spousal support.
Sharon writes that when Ozzy replied, "Over my dead body," she threw a cup of coffee at his head, adding, "Then I grabbed him and pulled at his precious hair with one hand, while trying to yank off his jewelry with the other. He went for me, trying to grab me in a headlock."
Ozzy told The Pulse Of Radio a while back that despite critics always saying that Sharon controlled his career and life, the truth was in fact the opposite: "My wife does not get involved with telling me about working. I tried retirement, it sucked. If I don't want to do anything, my wife can't make me do anything I don't want to do."
The estranged couple met up again in May after Ozzy had finally gone to rehab and was sober for two months. Sharon writes, "It seemed like forever since I'd looked into my husband's eyes, but now I was looking into sober eyes. The man I loved was present. I could tell he was relieved to be sitting next to me. I put my hand on his, took him in my arms and we cried."
The couple moved back in together in June.
Sharon's book, called "Unbreakable", is due out this month.
BLACK SABBATH wrapped up a North American tour last month in support of its reunion album, "13", and will tour the U.K. in December.

Q: Tessellation and Geometry shader with GL_TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY_EXT I have a little program that render terrain from some SRTM data.
i'm playing a bit with glsl new featutes.
I've successfully create a vs, tcs, tes, gs and fs where gs was only a pass through shader with:
#version 430
layout(triangles_adjacency) in;
layout(triangle_strip, max_vertices = 3) out;

void main(void) {
    for (int i = 0; i < gl_in.length(); ++i) {
        gl_Position = gl_in[i].gl_Position;
        EmitVertex();
    }
    EndPrimitive();
}

Now, in tcs and tes i add more triangles and i need to compute new normals, so i think i have to compute then in gs with triangles_adjacency option, so i can access to six vertices of 4 triangles.
But when i change the code so:
#version 430
layout(triangles_adjacency) in;
layout(triangle_strip, max_vertices = 3) out;

void main(void) {

    gl_Position = gl_in[0].gl_Position;
    EmitVertex();

    gl_Position = gl_in[2].gl_Position;
    EmitVertex();

    gl_Position = gl_in[4].gl_Position;
    EmitVertex();

    EndPrimitive();

}

nothing is draw. I know, if i have tessellation active i have to use GL_PATCHES in draw arrays (and i made in this way) but i cant understand what can i do in order to see work this gs.
However my goal is to compute new normals after tessellation; can anyone eventually help me where compute them?

SPARC Europe is leading and collaborating with an international coalition in an effort to halt the adoption of harmful provisions found in the current draft of the Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market, and certain amendments, which could threaten Open Access and Open Science.
On behalf of the coalition, we have been investing great efforts to raise awareness, among MEPs, advisers and other influencers, of the importance of safeguarding seamless access to Open Access publications; urging for the removal of proposals in the draft copyright reform that would restrict access to research and place administrative and legal burdens on institutional repositories. We have also requested improvements on proposals related to text and data mining, copyright in an education setting, and preservation and access to works for non-commercial endeavors — speaking through an open letter, in-person meetings, and briefs and flyers distributed widely to essential influencers at the European Parliament.
For an update on where things currently stand with the draft, see our issues briefs and position papers below.
A collection of resources — position papers, briefs and infographics — have been produced since our release of the original Open Letter. These provide more detail on potential negative impacts of the proposed copyright reform legislation, if not revised.
Add your name to the open letter, and share it with your networks and other organisations. Your name and the title of your affiliated organisation will be added to the letter, both on this page, and on the live Google document version. (We will continue to update the Letter through 1st October.) An updated version of the letter, including newly-added signatures, will again be delivered to the Legal Affairs Committee in October.
Reach out to members of the Legal Affairs Committee via Twitter to share your concerns and the open letter. You can find their Twitter handles on their profile pages.
If you are a library consortium, funder or research association, we also urge you to share the Open Letter with your Ministers of Education, Research and/or Science; and tell them of your opposition to this proposed reform.
We represent a large group of European academic, library, education, research and digital rights communities and we are writing to express our alarm at the draft Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market, and in particular at the potential impact of Articles 11 and 13. We are concerned that these provisions will create burdensome and harmful restrictions on access to scientific research and data, as well as on the fundamental rights of freedom of information, directly contradicting the EU's own ambitions in the field of Open Access and Open Science.
We therefore urge the Legal Affairs Committee to remove Articles 11 and 13 from the draft Directive. Furthermore, the Committee should ensure that Articles 3 to 9 support new forms of research and education and not work against them.
A U-turn on Open Science?
1. We believe that increased digital access, data analytics and open information flows will increase innovation in Europe. The European Commission's Horizon 2020 programme similarly supports open access to scientific publications and research data as essential drivers of EU global competitiveness. The EU has set an example internationally with its extensive policy work, for example by including Open Access in one of its six European Research Area (ERA) priorities. Moreover, in 2016 at the Competitiveness Council, all of Europe's ministers of science, innovation, trade and industry committed to Open Access to scientific publications as the default option for publicly funded research results by 2020. Open Science is increasingly accepted by governments and industry as a means not only to accelerate innovation, but also to ensure faster access to information for citizens.
2. However, several proposed elements of Articles 11 and 13 will prevent the EU from realizing the significant potential of Open Access and Open Science to promote scientific discovery and progress, and may thereby reduce the impact of European research worldwide.
3. Article 11 already poses a significant threat to an informed and literate society. Links to news and the use of titles, headlines and fragments of information could now become subject to licensing. Terms could make the last two decades of news less accessible to researchers and the public, leading to a distortion of the public's knowledge and memory of past events. Art. 11 would furthermore place EU law in contravention with the Berne Convention, whose Art. 2(8) excludes news of the day and 'mere items of press information' and 'press summaries' from protection.
4. The extension of this controversial proposal to academic publications, as proposed by the ITRE Committee, significantly worsens an already bad situation. It would provide academic publishers additional legal tools to restrict access, going against the increasingly widely accepted practice of sharing research. This will limit the sharing of open access publications and data which currently are freely available for use and reuse in further scientific advances. If the proposed ancillary right is extended to academic publications, researchers, students and other users of scientific and scholarly journal articles could be forced to ask permission or pay fees to the publisher for including short quotations from a research paper in other scientific publications. This will seriously hamper the spread of knowledge. The proposed ancillary right further conflicts with the Berne Convention's Article 10(1), which provides a mandatory exception for quotation, as well as posing risks to freedom of speech.
5. Prior experiments with the press publishers' right have also failed from an economic standpoint. No impact assessment has been carried out, no evidence produced, and no consultation conducted around the ramifications of extending Art. 11 to academic publishers.
6. In addition, academic publishers usually acquire rights to the works they publish when signing contracts with their authors. Publishers already have all the rights they need, thus ancillary rights don't make sense.
7. The provisions of Article 13 threaten the accessibility of scientific articles, publications and research data made available through over 1250 repositories managed by European non-profit institutions and academic communities. These repositories, which are essential for Open Access and Science in Europe, are likely to face significant additional operational costs associated with implementing new filtering technology and the legal costs of managing the risks of intermediary liability. The additional administrative burdens of policing this content would add to these costs. Such repositories, run on a not-for-profit basis, are not equipped to take on such responsibilities, and may face closure. This would be a significant blow, creating new risks for implementing funder, research council and other EU Open Access policies.
8. Regarding Article 3, we welcome amendments that expand the exception for text and data mining (TDM) to allow anyone, including SMEs and society in general, to mine works to which they have legal access, regardless of the purpose. Furthermore, Article 3 should direct Member States to set up a secure facility to ensure accessibility and verifiability of research made possible through TDM. Under no circumstances should data structured for mining purposes be deleted – this is fundamentally contrary to good scientific practice. Finally, the exception should be protected from being overridden by contract terms, and technological measures should be prohibited that interfere with the exercise of the exception. Both protections are essential for the exception to function.
9. Regarding Article 4, we believe that a robust exception to copyright for education should support broad access to and fair reuse of copyrighted content of all types in a variety of education settings, locally and across borders. The scope of the exception should cover digital and non digital uses, including 'scientific research' purposes, alongside educational ones, and prevent rightholders from overriding the exception through contractual provisions or technological protection measures. Finally, the exception should not depend on compulsory remuneration.
10. We also urge MEPs to take full account of the views of library and cultural heritage institutions regarding Articles 5-9 of the draft Directive, which aim at ensuring maximising the effective preservation of, and access to works for public interest, non-commercial purposes.
We therefore urge the Legal Affairs Committee to remove Articles 11 and 13 from the draft Directive. Furthermore, we ask for the improvement of Articles 3-9 in line with the suggestions put forward by library, educational, research and cultural heritage organisations throughout the parliamentary process to provide better support for teaching, learning, and new forms of research.
The signatories support a balanced copyright law that promotes open access to research articles, publications and data, thereby continuing to contribute to further strengthening Europe's research outreach and innovative capacity for the benefit of Europe's research industry, including SMEs and society.

The Inventor's Gin Co.
Ardrossan, North Ayrshire, Scotland
Situated near the Ayrshire coast, The Inventor's Gin Co. is a husband and wife team drawing their inspiration from the nearby land and sea, fused with Scotland's rich history of world changing inventions and discoveries.
Co-founder Steven has held a lifelong fascination with shiny brass things, swooping copper pipework and the thundering great machinery which powered the world into the industrial revolution. Making gin was a natural progression to roll all these elements into one crazy whirlwind adventure. Being a bit of a shed inventor, Steven designed and built the first still almost entirely from scrap parts. The first still is named Ivy after Steven's Grandmother and the newer larger still is called Harold after his Grandfather, both of whom were enormous influences in his life.
Inventor's Gin No.1
The traditional gin botanicals are blended and slowly infused in a single shot 'bathtub' process, before distillation in a copper pot still. The gin is distilled in small batches, with each batch having slightly different characteristics. To celebrate these subtleties, the couple number each bottle with no blending of batches. Inspired by Scottish contributions to the Industrial Revolution, the first signature Inventor's Gin is a traditional juniper-led gin. Nettle and heather root the spirit to the landscape, while the locally smoked pink pepper and red chillies stoke the fires of your soul.
Key Botanical(s): Juniper, Pink Pepper, Red Chillies
Goes great with: Sliced strawberry, tonic and ice.
Location: The Inventors Gin Co. Distillery, North Ayrshire, Scotland

"You know, I've never been on the scroll before." Patrick replied as he sat at the foot of the bed watching the FOX News channel Kate insisted they keep watching. He came to the conclusion that Kate was scared to see if the other news stations were reporting the nuptials - which they both knew they were, but as they say 'ignorance is bliss.'
"That's nice Patrick." Kate replied with a sigh as she looked around the room for the phone that should have been on the nightstand. Apparently the thralls of passion decided that it was necessary for the phone to be underneath the bed, she shook her head in disbelief as she pulled the phone onto her lap by the cord. She sighed once more as she cradled the phone between her cheek and shoulder.
"Who are you calling? Where are you going?" Patrick suddenly took interest as he watched Kate get dressed, "Hey, hey! Those are mine!"
She blatantly ignored him as she pulled up his boxer briefs rolling them a few times before shifting the phone from ear to ear.
"Hi, yes. Oh, I'm great. How are you?" Kate replied sweetly completely masking her foul mood. "Well I just needed to know what room Gwendolyn Merlon was in please."
"That's my shirt!" Patrick interrupted again as Kate picked the shirt off the floor, buttoning it up as she waited patiently for the information she requested from the front desk.
"Yes I know she's with a private party, I'm in that party as well." She smiled as she replied still wanting to sound as sweet as possible.
"I'm not free balling in those jeans Kate." Patrick interjected again ignoring the fact that he was being ignored as he picked up his undershirt. He pulled the correct appendages through all the proper holes all the while not loosening his grip on the sheet around his waist.
"I'm in room 1666." Kate finally let herself sigh, "Yes, Kate Stumph." She held her breath as the hotel employee went on, "Thank you so much, no really, that's so sweet of you to send your congratulations. Thank you, Thank you." Kate finally just took the phone away from her ear when the receptionist didn't stop. She turned her attention to Patrick when he began tugging on her choice of pants.
"Nooooo, I have no pants - I'm not wearing that dress again." She whispered while covering the phone's mouthpiece with her hand.
"It was that dress that got us into this, just wear the dress. You can even keep the shirt - keep it I don't care." He whined while pulling at his underwear. Kate stuck out her lip and pleaded with her eyes. Patrick groaned in response, damn that puppy dog face to hell - oh how he hated it.
"Can I please just have the room number now, please?" Kate responded into the phone when she heard that the receptionist had finally stopped talking. "Thank you so much." She gushed before hanging up the phone.
"You know everyone is going to be in here soon and if your not here they are going to flip a shit." Patrick replied while hesitantly zipping up his jeans, sighing in relief when he didn't catch himself in the fly.
"They are coming over here specifically to flip a shit, and it will be flipped regardless if I'm here or not." Kate let out a breath the she didn't know she had been holding; "I just can't be in here right now with them . . . with you." She replied before walking out the door.
Kate let herself in as quietly as possible as to not disturb the phone conversation her stylist was having. She smiled slightly trying to prevent herself from laughing at the giddy tone in Gwen's voice.
"No, it's great, great, super great." Gwen put a hand over her eyes in disbelief as she held the phone to her ear, "I can't wait, yeah I'll talk to you later. By-Bye . . . bye." She hung up the phone quickly and held it over her lips in obvious excitement.
"Someone's got a boyfriend." Kate teased while rummaging through the open bag of Cheetos.
Gwen let out an excited squeal as she jumped up in the air, "He called, I can't believe he called. I'm not going to lie I didn't think he would considering that he's a big talented . . . hot drummer man - I can't believe he called, and we have plans - he called and made plans. We have PLANS!" She shrieked.
"Oooh," Kate nodded her head in understanding, "Bob."
"Bob!" Gwen agreed enthusiastically.
"Bob." Kate repeated with her mouth full.
"Bob." Gwen sighed, "Bob Bryar."
"So, Bob?"
"Shut up you." Gwen replied while chucking a shoe in Kate's direction, "And uh excuse me. Married!"
"Bob Bryar called you and made /plans/." Kate responded while shoving a few Cheetos in her mouth.
"I know." The stylist cooed before forcefully pointing a stiletto in the singers direction, "Don't change the subject. Kate, married?" She questioned while tying her dark hair up in an elastic.
"And and, that was totally all me cause I was the one that was like 'Oh look it's Bob Bryar - Gwen, Bob, Bob, Gwen.' Yeah all me." Kate pointed to herself trying her best to change the subject as she ignored the question.
Gwen opened her mouth to say something but the ringing of the hotel phone cut her off. She picked up the phone but quickly pulled it away from her ear as the person on the other end started yelling.
"Tell them I'm on my way." Kate sighed before hopping off the table she was sitting on. She knew that if she didn't return they would just find her and she didn't want that kind of drama to kill her friend's emotional high.
Pete's voice could be heard from down the hall - so much for being subtle.
"We sent you to watch her and you end up married to her!" He screamed at Patrick who was at an obvious lack for words.
"I, uhm," Patrick stammered as he glanced from Pete to Bob and then to Delilah's manager Frank, "I'm sorry." He apologized because it was the only thing he could think of to say.
"You're sorry? You're fucking sorry?" Pete scoffed, "Well I'm fucking sorry that I left my sister, MY BABY SISTER, in your care!" He continued to yell though Patrick was only a few feet away.
"Look Patrick," Bob interjected while placing a comforting hand on Patrick's shoulder, "We can get this annulled, erased and there is no harm done ok? In a few weeks no one will even be talking about this anymore."
Frank started laughing which elicited glares from Pete and Bob, and a confused glance from Patrick.
"I'm sorry but one, this is never going to 'blow over' and secondly," He started laughing slightly again, "you cannot file for an annulment."
"Why not? He can do whatever the fuck he wants." Bob spat forcefully at the other manager.
"This is nothing but good press for you, if he files before she does this could be devastating to her career." Frank stated nonchalantly.
"This isn't about her career and frankly you don't have a say in what they do or do not decide, so shut up! It's his option and his choice." Bob raised his voice.
"I don't want to do anything that's going to give her negative press Bob." Patrick whispered to his manager but was waved off.
"I can't believe you married my sister, my baby sister - and you didn't even ask my dad, or me!" Pete shoved Patrick slightly.
"News flash, your sister isn't a baby she's 27 and it's not like I exactly planned this Pete so get off my fucking back!" Patrick pushed back slightly to get Pete off of him.
"A fucking nobody isn't going to annul their marriage to Kate Wentz." Frank warned Bob who huffed in response.
"Jesus, will you all just stop!?" Kate yelled from the doorway, "He's not a nobody Frank." She ran her hands through her hair frustrated, "and I'm not 10 years old Pete, stop treating me like a child."
It seemed as if everyone collectively took a big breath to try and calm down.
"Kate what the fuck is wrong with you? Do you realize that you didn't sign a damn pre-nup?" Apparently Frank's big breath did nothing to calm him down as he grabbed Kate's arm forcefully.
"Look at me," Kate started while ripping her arm out of her managers grip, "Do I look worried that he's going to take me for all I'm worth? Yeah, not so much." She rolled her eyes.
"They are both wealthy Frank, money isn't an issue." Bob replied while pulling at the skullcap he was wearing.
"Yeah that's what they all say." Frank scoffed while crossing his arms over his chest.
"Frank, can I talk to you outside for a second." Bob sighed defeated, there was no way that they were going to get anywhere inside this room. Frank nodded in agreement as he followed the other manager out of the hotel suite, Pete not wanting to be left behind also went into the hall.
Patrick sighed as he handed his phone to Kate, she looked at him confused.
"Uhm, thanks?" She questioned while she fiddled with the device in her hand.
"Call your lawyers so they can start whatever paperwork it is to get this annulled." He replied hesitantly.
"You can just go ahead Patrick, it doesn't matter that much anymore anyways." She forced a smile and handed him back his phone, "I mean what's the worst they're going to say? What, they're going to compare me to Britney Spears - well they're already doing that. They always do a shitty job of hurting my feelings anyway."
"That won't be necessary." Bob interrupted as all three men walked back into the room.
Pete took Kate's hands in his. "Sister, you know I love you and only want what's best -"
"Pete you're scaring me."
"Just remember I would never suggest you to do this unless I thought it was the best possibly option." Kate's face fell. "You need to stay married to Patrick for at least six months." Pete rushed out.
"What?" Kate and Patrick both spat severely confused.
"Patrick I know how much you dislike the spotlight but we figured this was they best way to avoid it, in all reality. If you guys got an annulment you would always be that guy - this way you guys mind your business and then six months later you divorce or whatever claiming that you 'fell out of love' but are still good friends blah blah blah - good press for everyone." Bob finished explaining and looked hopeful at the couple.
"Katie Baby," Frank started but was cut off by a groan from Kate, "Ok, I'm sorry, Kate, plain Kate, you know that you America's Love Child - America doesn't want a child who has quickie Vegas weddings for their own personal amusement. You can kiss your image goodbye, and without your good image you and your band are shit."
"You are really bad at analogies." Kate replied slightly disturbed at her manager's 'words of wisdom.'
"Ok, wait." Patrick held up his hand signaling everyone to stop, "What exactly does this mean?"
"Our favorite couple acts married to the press. You guys will walk hand in hand, have annoying gooey lunches and dinners in plain view of paparazzi, tell the press how in love you are, go to each others shows if need be - and you know, move in together, and stuff." Pete retorted quickly as if to take attention away from what exactly he just proposed.
"Oh is that all?" Kate questioned sarcastically.
"Look we're sorry but don't blame us. We're just giving you the best solution to the mess you two made. It can't be that hard, people do this shit all the time." Bob replied with a shrug.
No one knew exactly what they were getting into, nothing is ever as it seems in theory and this could very well blow up in their faces, but one thing was for sure; that day, in a crowded Vegas suite, Katrick was born.

San Marcos school board: Juan Miguel Arredondo, Mayra Mejia ahead in races
Julie Chang
Juan Miguel Arredondo, an incumbent, and Mayra Mejia, student publications coordinator at Texas State University, are leading in their respective races for the San Marcos school board.
Arrendondo, 29, has served on on the board for five years. He had 60% of the votes against James Bryant Jr., who previously served on the school board, in the district 1 race, as of 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Mejia, 32, had 60% of the votes against Nicholas Costilla, a legal assistant for the Hays County district attorney's office, in the district 3 race.
Arredondo said he would build a strong budget even under the uncertainty of school funding. He said he would work toward reopening schools safely in the midst of the pandemic and ensure the district remains focused in closing the achievement gap for all students.
Mejia said she would ensure all students have equal access to quality education, and increase parent involvement and awareness of mental health and wellness services to teachers, staff, and students. She promised transparency during the pandemic.
Bryant said the district's fund balance should not be "robbed" for non-critical expenditures and that staff at all times should be provided with personal protective equipment.
Costilla said he would request school district updates regarding student achievement and school operations stemming from pandemic issues. He would ensure students, teachers and staff have the necessary tools regarding health, safety, education, training and any and all school-related items.

Competing in soccer teaches you more than the rules of play; it provides you with tools that translate into other aspects of your life. Soccer requires quick thinking, fast action and the ability to work as part of a team, and these skills can help you stay focused and productive in your personal and professional life.
In soccer, you win and lose as a team; no one person carries the team by himself, although one person might score the winning goal or miss a critical shot that leads to a loss. In life, you become part of many teams, from family units to groups of co-workers. These people rely on you, and you on them, to meet certain goals, such as financial savings or finishing a project on time. These relationships require collaboration, just like you work with your soccer teammates by passing the ball or blocking an opponent so he can't steal the ball from a teammate. Soccer helps you understand that win or lose, you do it as a team -- you don't get to take all the credit when a group project surpasses expectations, nor do you take all the blame if the project fails. This requires building other skills such as strong communication, so your teammates -- or co-workers -- know what you're doing and what's expected of them.
Taking risks, such as shooting for the goal from midfield, can lead to failure, but it also can end in an amazing victory. This is true in life as well. Learning to take risks means you open the door to new ideas and interesting ventures, even though they might fail. Taking risks that don't work out -- on the field and off -- helps you learn to handle mistakes, learning from them and making changes to improve future decisions instead of wallowing in despair when things don't work out they way you want. This also means learning to deal with other people's mistakes, whether that person is a referee who makes an incorrect call or a family member who uses poor judgment in a financial investment.
Even the best soccer teams lose occasionally, which is an important lesson to apply to your life. You might have the best game you've ever played, but the team still loses. This helps you survive job interviews that end up with you getting the dreaded "thank you but no thank you" letter, or being passed over for promotion. A loss in soccer can energize the team, making you and your teammates call for extra practices to work on skills that need improvement such as dribbling, passing or scoring. The same is true in life -- use the loss to help you refocus your energies on how to win that promotion next time, for example.
Soccer helps you build other valuable skills as well. It teaches you the importance of attitude, and how a good attitude can invigorate others as well as yourself. It lets you see you can always be better -- practice is key, and the more you practice, study or work on a project, the better you, or it, can be. Soccer teaches you dignity when you win and after a loss, which helps you live and work with others as social and work roles continually change.

Hello, Wigwam wins major award
Just before Christmas, 2016, L. John Lawrence received notice that his novel Hello, Wigwam won the Military Writers gold seal award, one of the highest awards given to books about military life. The announcement he received is copied below:
Your book, Hello, Wigwam, received a GOLD Medal in the 2016 Military Writers Society of America awards young adult category. I am attaching the review to this email. Please use it any way you like. You will receive the medal and 100 stickers from Dwight Zimmerman sometime in the new year. Your award will be announced in a general email blast to the organization membership, in the Winter 2017 MWSA Dispatches magazine, on the MWSA website, and in a national media release. There will be no Awards Ceremony for 2016 winners.
As you know, 2016 was a transition year. The MWSA Awards Committee (Betsy Beard (Chair), Sandra Linhart, Carolyn Schriber(Author of the Year 2015), Bob Doerr (Author of the year 2013 and Vice President of MWSA), and I) revamped the entire program. The already stringent requirements were toughened further. Three judges read every book submitted and scored them based on content, visual, style, and technical criteria. The three scores were then averaged. To receive a medal, a book had to reflect MWSA's exacting technical standards as well has a high total score. If there was disagreement, the three judges met to discuss the books in detail. Books are judged to a standard, not competitively against each other. If you get the score, you get the medal. While this process took longer, we feel that it was worth the time to ensure that only the very best books submitted were recognized.
Best wishes for the holiday season and congratulations on your personal and professional achievement
 with this work
Joyce Faulkner and Betsy Beard, MWSA Awards Directors

Two reviews follow, neither from Amazon:
Literary Classics is pleased to announce that the book, Hello, Wigwam by L. John Lawrence, has been selected to receive the Literary Classics Seal of Approval.
L. John Lawrence exhibits a true gift of the pen in his depiction of a young man who is swept into a world of blood and battle which is not without its ironically funny moments. This riveting story is superbly written, displaying poignant moments interspersed with a healthy dose of satire. Hello, Wigwam is recommended for a mature young adult audience and has earned the Literary Classics Seal of Approval.
Five-Star Review By Sandy Appleyard for "Readers' Favorite"
Hello, Wigwam by L. John Lawrence is a wonderfully told story. The author describes, via a combination of anecdotes, quotes, and edge-of-your-seat life-like accounts, what the boy sees, feels and learns. The reader gets the sense that the young man is wholesome, likeable, and will always try to do the right thing.
Hello, Wigwam is an entertaining read and is recommended to those looking for an interesting, educational, humorous, and thought-provoking novel about a young boy who becomes a man.
