What is the situation for recordings of classical pieces from the repertoire when it comes to sync? The music is out of copyright but the score is probably not, Is this something to worry about? I’m thinking here of classical guitar music. I have an album of pieces but worry about submitting them.
My suspicion is that technically the publisher of the score has some rights, but that where there are multiple publishers these are unmanageable and are usually ignored. Is that it?
Thanks.November 4, 2016 at 9:13 am #26164Michael NickolasParticipant
I think what you are saying is that you’ve recorded compositions that are in the public domain, but used copyrighted sheet music as your source when making the recording?
I can’t help, but that is an interesting question! I would wonder if it makes a difference if the published sheet music (score) is simply a reprint of the original, or if the publisher has added to it and copyrighted it as an arrangement. Or maybe it is a reprint of the original but the publisher has included it in a copyrighted collection? Very interesting….November 4, 2016 at 9:46 am #26166
That’s it, yes. In theory an arrangement or even an edition is copyrighted, but I don’t imagine this can be respected in these circumstances. On my guitar forum this issue is taken seriously but I’ve not seen it discussed in relation to music libraries.November 4, 2016 at 9:50 am #26167AlanParticipant
I’ve done a few PD guitar and piano things and I’m not too concerned about it. If you are recording a Sor study for instance, check the arrangement you are recording against the same study from other sources. If all the notes and rhythms are the same, who is to say what sheet music (if any) you played it from.
I’m no expert on copyright, but I have always presumed that copyright on printed versions of unaltered PD classical works is limited to the actual sheet music, not the underlying composition.
If you want to play it safe then only submit PD music that is already available in one or more reputable libraries.
Side note: Crucial insists the composers must have died prior to 1917 on PD tracks.November 4, 2016 at 9:57 am #26168Michael NickolasParticipant
Maybe Crucial doing that has something to do with the fact that a US expired copyright doesn’t mean the composition is not under copyright in another country. Maybe having died prior to 1917 somehow clears it across the globe…November 4, 2016 at 10:33 am #26170
Alan – Thanks. Yes, that’s about what I thought, and Michael’s point would explain Crucial’s system.
Not that many people care. I’ve just heard an entire Scriabin album posted by someone who had nothing to do with it.

Bohemian Rhapsody – why Prague and Pilsen are perfect for a winter vacation
Departing from Prague Airport, I open my in-flight magazine to read a five-page article on the famous Christmas markets in the Czech Republic.
“No self-respecting Czech town would miss the opportunity to visit one,” it says, and it has apparently been since medieval times.
The pages of my magazine are illuminated with a dazzling array of images showing scenes from across the country, one of which depicts Prague’s Old Town Square lit up in a warm, warm glow, crowds of people flocking to jostling between the stalls under an imposing Christmas tree.
This magazine was printed in October of this year. The scene I live in December is very different.
On November 25, the Czech Republic announced a series of measures to stem the spread of the Omicron variant of Covid-19. In addition to ordering the closure of all bars and restaurants at 10 p.m., the Czechs have done the unthinkable by ordering the closure of their Christmas markets.
For a place like Prague, which thrives on tourism and nightlife, these regulations have changed the very fabric of the city. The wooden stalls of the so-called Christmas market are still dotted around the Old Town Square, but tourists now walk aimlessly past them.
The rest of the city is also muted. My room at the Hotel Occidental overlooks Wenceslas Square – usually a hub of activity, it seems rather numb now. The famous Duplex nightclub in this square has a sign above its door indicating: “CLUB STAY OPEN EVERY DAY”, then the opening hours: 7 pm-10pm. Imagine going out to party for just three hours …
Fortunately, there is still plenty to do in the capital of the Czech Republic during the day. My personal highlight is Pragl, where classically trained glassblower Dave Yule teaches me how to make my own glassware.
Glassmaking was very important in Bohemia, the old name of the Czech Republic, and in a typical Czech style the workshop is complemented by a few glasses of local beer. (Workshops start from 600 CZK / £ 20; pragl glass.)
Speaking of beer, my next stop is a town that every discerning drinker will have heard of. About an hour and a half away by car, Pilsen (Plzen) is nestled in the heart of West Bohemia. Known the world over for its pilsner lager, this market town surrounds the Pilsner Urquell brewery, founded in 1842.
It’s a brewery like no other, and with 80-minute tours starting at just 250CZK (£ 8.30), a visit is an absolute must. Visitors are immersed in the incredible and unique history of the pilsner, with the tour ending in the caves deep in town, where I can taste the creamy beer myself.
It is served with a deliberately large head to reduce the amount of CO2 that makes it into beer. The Czechs call this effect “mliko”, which means milky.
Indeed, if Pilsen is pretty on one level, it is in the 13 kilometers of underground caves that we discover the true heart and soul of this city. For 150CZK (£ 5), visitors can don a helmet and go below the surface to enjoy the historic Pilsen underground tour.
Starting from under the Senk Na Parkanu pub – which serves a delicious variety of traditional Czech food (main course from CZK 195 / £ 6.50) – the tour winds through several floors of labyrinthine corridors under the streets.
Originally built as cellars to store and move beer kegs, these hallways have since been cleaned, repaved, and turned into a living museum. Be warned – this experience is not for the claustrophobic, especially when the ceilings start to get very, very low.
Back on the surface, I discover that Pilsen, like Prague, has been hit hard by the new Covid regulations. With the disappearance of the Christmas markets, the town square is much less busy than I expected. Dagmar, who works at one of the few stalls that are allowed to remain open, tells me that she worries for the good of her business. The loss of attendance due to the closure cost her a lot of money, she explains.
Still, there is a lot to do outside of the market. I am fortunate to visit during the Jewish Festival of Lights, which is celebrated at the Old Synagogue with a dazzling technicolor projection. The neo-Romanesque building is tucked away on an unsuspecting side street and recently received a full restoration. Religious worship is something the Covid has failed to interrupt.
On the subject of religious buildings, my next stop is to visit Saint-Barthélemy Cathedral. This beautiful Gothic church dominates Pilsen’s main square, which, despite the closure of the Christmas market, still manages to remain vibrant and bustling.
Entrance is free and I urge any visitor to make at least one quick visit to see the incredible vaulted ceilings, decorated with stunning paintings by Karl Jobst, painted in 1883.
Then, for 60 CZK / £ 2, visitors can also climb the roughly 300 steps to the top of the 103-meter-high tower, from where they can get incredible views of the city.
As the evening approaches, I lament the fact that Pilsen is nowhere near as vibrant as it could have been – yet I can’t help but think that this beautiful city will recover very healthily from the pandemic. . With so much beauty and intrigue to discover, it’s no wonder this city was European Capital of Culture in 2015.
There is just enough time on my trip to experience something quite new. Pilsen is a rapidly growing city, and in the emerging Pilsen 8 district we find Purkmistr, a restaurant and hotel with a very unique health club offering.
After tasting some of the delicious Czech beers they offer, I am driven to their beer spa, where I take a rejuvenating bath in the amber nectar (from CZK 900 / £ 30). As I lie down, drinking the hot beer, I begin to fully appreciate the importance of this drink in the history of the Czech Republic and how Purkmistr is able to honor the city’s most renowned product. with creativity.
It’s an appalling shame that this new variant must have struck so close to Christmas, but the Czechs aren’t the only ones to be shaken by its effects.
My advice would be to put Prague and Pilsen on your to-do list now. As the journey begins to pick up its pace, you won’t find a place on earth more thrilled to express itself through food, beer, history and everything in between.

Munich / Berlin (Reuters) – The German economy has started surprisingly well into spring thanks to the weak euro.
The mood in the boardrooms of companies brightened unexpectedly significantly in April and is now as good as for almost a year no more. The barometer of business confidence rose from 107.9 to 108.6 points, such as the Munich-based Ifo institute said on Friday its 7000 survey of managers. Economists had expected only 108.4 meters.
“The German economy continues its recovery,” said Ifo President Hans-Werner Sinn. The CEOs rated their business situation is not as good as since June 2014. The outlook for the next six months, they estimated, however, a little worse than before.
The mood brightened in the construction industry and in wholesale as well as in industry. “The euro’s weakness is like the sluggish development in several regions of the world,” said Ifo expert Klaus Rabe well overlooking large emerging economies such as China, Russia and Brazil, where it no longer runs smoothly. The depreciation of the euro, which has lost over a fifth of its value against the dollar within a year, German products overseas are attractively priced. This boosts sales. At the same time competing products – from the USA – expensive in the domestic market.
at retail and service providers, the business climate clouded, however, put a. “Consumption, housing, investment, exports – none of which grows in the sky,” said KfW’s chief economist Joerg Zeuner. Nevertheless, that Europe’s largest economy properly grow this year. “Our real economy benefits from the weak euro, low interest rates and favorable commodity prices.”
Leading research institutes and the federal government had their forecasts for growth in gross domestic product this year, last raised – around two percent. However, both the production company and factory orders failed last weaker than expected.

I lost my girl today after twelve years. Exactly twelve years ago TO THE DAY I picked up a plump, fuzzy little yellow lab from the breeder. I picked her from a litter of at least 10 puppies and couldn't wait to bring her home. I named her Ida Mae and I lost her today.
My heart is simply aching right now. I can't eat, I can't sleep. Part of me feels like if I just sit and write for a bit, perhaps I might feel more than numbness and disbelief. Please feel free to stop reading now. I understand and won't think less of you. If you knew Ida Mae though, I just need to celebrate her and work through this in a story. Feel free to listen.
The thing about losing Ida today is that I didn't just lose my dog. She has been my confidant for the past twelve years. I've called her my "first born" on more than one occasion. Ida was with me for some of the hardest times of my life and most certainly for some the best times. She was a driving buddy, a snuggle machine, an alarm clock, an exercise companion, a ring bearer in our wedding and a watch dog enamored with our children. She accepted every role we asked of her and she did so with such dedication and voracious love.
We had a good last day with Ida yesterday here on the farm. She showed no signs of preparing to leave us. She swam in the pond, she barked at the kids in her self imposed role as lifeguard, she ate her treat before bed and she was given her daily dose of affection and attention. It was a good day.
Today I watched my amazing husband dig her grave after our little family said goodbye to her at the vet. Ida had acute onset pneumonia that she may or may not have recovered from. I couldn't live with the idea of her hurting and treatment wasn't promising. Listening to her labored breathing this morning told me that the day had arrived to make one of life's most difficult choices. I held her when she went and I told how much I loved her. For those of you who know me, I would have given that dog a kidney if she needed it. My love for her is fierce.
Ida rests next to the pond here on our farm. She has a front porch view of her favorite swimming hole where she can keep one eye on the kids she protected so tenderly. There are many memories of her in that pond and I couldn't imagine a better place to sit and "be" with her.
Cheers to my sweet girl for all the truly wonderful memories I hold tight. I am proud to say that not a single day went by without telling her I loved her and I know she will always be with me. Rest in peace Ida Mae. I love you to the moon and back.

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker will meet President Donald Trump in Washington next week to explore the possibility of starting negotiations on reducing car tariffs for several key trade partners, according to two people with knowledge of the plans.
Juncker will likely signal the EU's willingness to consider a so-called plurilateral sectoral deal to reduce car tariffs between the two sides as well as other major car-exporting countries, said one of the officials, who asked not to be identified because preparations for the meeting are ongoing. Such a deal, which would have the potential to upend the auto industry, would take time to complete and officials said they aren't optimistic Trump would accept it.
The EU is seeking to head off a US probe into whether imports of cars and car parts damage national security, which could culminate in a Trump proposal to impose a 20 per cent tariff on autos. Washington has already hit the EU with duties on its steel and aluminium exports using the same national-security justification. Juncker is seeking to tamp down the brewing conflict a month after the 28-nation bloc imposed levies on €2.8 billion of American imports due to the metal tariffs.
"President Juncker and President Trump will focus on improving trans-Atlantic trade and forging a stronger economic partnership," the European Commission said in a statement on Tuesday announcing the July 25 meeting. The stand-off over car duties has rattled auto makers, with the Stoxx 600 Automobiles & Parts Index down about 9 per cent this year.
The EU will use Juncker's meeting to work out how to proceed, with member states divided, according to the other official. Germany, which shipped 640,000 cars to the US last year, is eager to negotiate a solution with Trump while French officials consider the new auto tariffs a foregone conclusion.
While some EU member states, including France, resist such a sweeping global deal on cars, there's no other legally possible concession the bloc can offer to appease Trump, according to one of the officials. Even as Juncker won't have a mandate to make a binding offer to Trump, he will float this option as this is the solution that the EU's executive arm considers to be realistic, the official said.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in a July 5 speech that the EU could reduce car tariffs as part of a broad free-trade agreement, which would have to include about 90 per cent of commerce between the two regions. Alternately, the EU and US could lower duties, which would be offered to all other WTO partners, she said.
Juncker's visit comes after Trump singled out the bloc as a "foe" of the US, in comments highlighting the increasing strain in trans-Atlantic ties. Since Trump's election, the pillars of the West have parted ways in many key areas of policy, including the Paris agreement on climate change, the Iran nuclear accord, and the Middle East peace process.
Even as the EU's executive arm has angered Washington by imposing levies on iconic American brands such as Harley Davidson and Levi's jeans, its flamboyant head has refrained from personal attacks on the US president, thus keeping channels of communication open. In contrast, EU Council President Donald Tusk, who chairs the meetings of the bloc's leaders, has been among the harshest critics of Trump.
"America and the EU are best friends," Tusk said last week. "Whoever says we are foes is spreading fake news."
The EU isn't allowed under global rules to reduce its 10 per cent tariff on American cars unless it either does so for WTO members as a whole or reaches a bilateral accord with the US that covers "substantially all" two-way trade.
Earlier, when the EU unsuccessfully sought a permanent waiver from Trump's metals tariffs imposed in March, the bloc said it was willing to start negotiations with the US on a relatively narrow trade deal focused on eliminating tariffs on industrial goods including cars. That offer went nowhere, according to European officials.

Revolver interviewed M. Shadows and talked about “Mad Hatter,” what podcasts he listens to, what it was like the first time he saw himself in a video game, the passing of Vinnie Paul, what’s been the hardest part of his vocal recovery, what he’s been listening to, his favorite metal and all-around album of the year so far, which he would chose betweens games or golf if he could only have one for the rest of his life and more.
WHEN DID YOU GUYS ACTUALLY WRITE AND RECORD “MAD HATTER”? WAS IT HARD KEEPING IT A SECRET?
M. SHADOWS We wrote and recorded back in March. It was easy for most band members to keep it a secret. Johnny Christ, however, had a harder time and spilled the beans in his first interview at Rock on the Range.
DO YOU LISTEN TO A LOT OF PODCASTS? WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITES?
I do. My favorite is Waking Up With Sam Harris. I also listen to Joe Rogan and StarTalk.
ONE OF THE REV’S IDOLS AND ONE OF YOUR GUYS’ BIGGEST SUPPORTERS, VINNIE PAUL, DIED RECENTLY. HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT HIS DEATH? DO YOU HAVE A STANDOUT VINNIE PAUL STORY YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE?
We were in France about to play Hellfest and it was a total shock. … My favorite time with him would have to be playing the Revolver Golden Gods. Getting onstage and blasting through “Mouth for War” was surreal.
WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENING TO LATELY?
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE METAL ALBUM OF THE YEAR SO FAR? WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE ALBUM OF THE YEAR SO FAR, OF ANY GENRE?
Prequelle by Ghost for metal, and overall Ye by Kanye West.
IF YOU COULD ONLY GAME OR GOLF FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY?
Golf for sure. Different games come and go and some are better than others, but something about being outside and being physical appeals to the human spirit. Golf is so tough and it takes a lifetime to get anywhere with it. I enjoy the challenge.

Mothers who give birth to large infants at increased risk for breast cancer
Delivering a high-birth-weight infant more than doubles a woman's breast cancer risk, according to research from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. The researchers suggest that having a large infant is associated with a hormonal environment during pregnancy that favors future breast cancer development and progression.
"We also found that women delivering large babies those in the top quintile of this study, which included babies whose weight was 8.25 or more pounds have increased levels of hormones that create a 'pro-carcinogenic environment.' This means that they have high levels of estrogen, low levels of anti-estrogen and the presence of free insulin-like growth factors associated with breast cancer development and progression," said lead author Dr. Radek Bukowski, professor of obstetrics and gynecology in the Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine. "Women can't alter their pregnancy hormones, but can take steps to increase their general protection against breast cancer." Dr. Bukowski notes that breastfeeding, having more than one child, following a healthy diet and exercising have been shown to reduce breast cancer risk.
The study, published in the July 17 issue of PLoS ONE, builds on accumulating evidence that a woman's own birth weight and that of her children are linked to breast cancer. However, this is the first study to explore whether each is an independent risk factor. Dr. Bukowski's team examined two cohorts of women from distinct data sets:
- The Framingham Offspring Birth History Study, which has studied generations of women via medical examinations and laboratory assessments. Dr. Bukowski's team studied 410 women from this study, observed between 1991-2008, and maternal birth weight, infant birth weight and results of later examinations (e.g., breast cancer diagnosis) to determine breast cancer risk. The researchers also looked at data from the study on known breast cancer risk factors, such as age, race/ethnicity, body mass index, diabetes, use of hormone replacement therapy and maternal history of the disease, among others.
- The First and Second Trimester Evaluation of Risk for Aneuploidy (FASTER) trial, which examined pregnancy hormones in nearly 24,000 women at 15 U.S. clinical centers between 1999 and 2003. The study included assessments of the hormones that affect infant birth weight and breast cancer risk estriol (E3), anti-estrogen alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A).
Of the nearly 24,000 pregnancies studied in the FASTER trial, a strong positive relationship was observed between infant birth weight and E3, AFP and PAPP-A concentrations. For women whose infant's birth weight was in the highest quintile, there was a 25 percent increased risk of having a high E3/AFP ratio and PAPP-A concentration.
"Recent animal studies have suggested that breast stem cells, which are involved in the origins of breast cancer, may increase or decrease their number in response to hormone exposures, including ones during pregnancy," added Dr. Bukowski. "They retain a 'memory' of prior hormone exposure, which could explain the increased risk of breast cancer seen following pregnancy, especially in women with a large birth weight infant. The hormones create a long term effect that may lead to breast cancer later."
One limitation of this study is that the associations between large infants' birth weight and breast cancer risk and between infants' birth weight and hormonal environment during pregnancy were tested in different populations of women. Further research is needed to definitively demonstrate that the concentrations of pregnancy hormones mediates the relationship between large infant birth weight and breast cancer.
Subsequent studies will also focus on testing whether having an infant of high birth weight improves prediction of future breast cancer.

With the announcement that Breitbart has officially merged with the Trump campaign, I thought it might be worth revisiting the Groundswell Gang, the group of right-wing operatives who had declared a "30-front war" on the Obama administration, headed up by Justice Clarence Thomas' wife, Ginni.
Where are they now, anyway? I went back to the transcript of the recorded meeting they had in May, 2013 to see where they've gone since they shut down their very public Google group and moved to more private quarters.
For those unfamiliar with the group, read David Corn's excellent article about them here. I wrote more about them here, here and here. You can listen to the recording of their meeting here.
We need a General
After being trounced in 2012 and forming a strategy for Obama's second term, the group was at a loss. They had their soldiers, but no general. In their March 27, 2013 meeting minutes, they memorialized the problem.
"There needs to be a General, a real leader," they decided. "It is the grassroots who will be the ones to make a compelling case for change and new leadership."
They continued, "Immigration may be the issue that puts the grassroots over the edge because the immigration policy is being developed in a very elitist, quiet, secretive manner. The consequences of the immigration policy have huge ramifications."
Where are they now?
The May Groundswell meeting roll-call was a parade of right-wing stars. The vast right-wing conspiracy Hillary Clinton had once encouraged reporters to investigate was present and accounted for.
Here's a list from the transcript:
Catherine Engelbrecht, True the Vote
Ken Blackwell, American Family Association
Gen. Jerry Boykin, Family Research Council
Frank Gaffney, Center for Security Policy
Sebastian Gorka, Breitbart writer and "national security specialist"
John Bolton, Former U.N. ambassador, Bush administration
Dean Clancy, formerly of Freedomworks
Allen West, former Congressman, Fox News commentator, NRA Board member
J. Christian Adams, Attorney, Voting Rights "specialist"
John Fonte, Hudson Institute
Tom Fitton, President of Judicial Watch (The meeting was in their offices)
Anita Moncrief, True the Vote
Sandy Rios, Government Affairs Director, American Family Association
Steve Bannon, Breitbart News, now CEO of Donald Trump's campaign
Myron Ebell, Competitive Enterprise Institute, Director of Center for Energy and the Environment
Michael Flynn - Retired general, now National Security adviser for Trump
Diana Banister - Partner at Shirley & Bannister, a high-powered conservative public relations firm that came to power under Reagan.
Brian Baker - CEO of Ending Spending, a SuperPAC funded by former TDAmeritrade mogul Joe Ricketts.
Those were only the ones present at the meeting. There were many more involved with their 'messaging war,' including staffers from Jeff Sessions' office, and Rep. Bridenstine's office in the House of Representatives.
They've got their leader - Trump
Now they're all in for Trump. John Bolton, Frank Gaffney and Sebastian Gorka are acting as national security surrogates. Stephen Bannon is now Trump's campaign CEO. True the Vote is responsible for the "voters will cheat" theme now coming from Trump. Jeff Sessions is Trump's lead Senate surrogate. Tom Fitton is working overtime trying to flog the damn emails for everything it's worth in order to scrape together something -- anything -- that would smear Hillary Clinton.
Ginni Thomas stays quiet in public over at the Daily Caller, but her interviews are intended to benefit Trump and the far-right nativist hordes who have subsumed the Republican Party
All the players have taken the stage, and they have their leader - Donald Trump. All that's left is for us to bury them in a pile of votes for Hillary Clinton and all the downballot candidates. Crush the bigots under the weight of millions and millions of votes.
It might also be a good time for our media to revisit the decades-old "vast right-wing conspiracy" yet again. Had they chosen to investigate instead of ridicule Hillary Clinton back in the day, Trump might still be conning Trump University students instead of the last pockets of bigots in this country.
In the end, Republicans built this, Republicans own it, and they spent the last 4 years refining their technique. A look at the "Groundswell" tactics proves it.

A rare visit to the Hebron Yeshiva in Jerusalem – one of the most prestigious haredi yeshivas – reveals that the students are not very troubled by the Sword of Damocles hanging over them. They just want to present their stance and wonder how it "will all work out in the end."
'It's certainly possible that the public will want the haredi public to enlist, but we don't think we need to enlist or that we will enlist," says yeshiva student Shmuel Degani.
"We are very appreciative of those who enlist and of what they do, we 'get' them and love them, but we would like them to try and understand that there's a good population here that carries out endless acts of charity, tries to have a positive influence and yet is only ever thought of for one thing – lack of military service.
"This (haredi) public that has Hasdei Naomi (charity for indignant children), Yad Sarah, Hatzolah – consider for a moment whether that kind of public is 'worthy' of the title of parasite or perhaps behind it all there are values and principles."
Another yeshiva student, Yossi Yalon said: "We need to create dialogue. Honestly, we really do appreciate those who give their lives to protect us and our families, but we also do our part, maybe on an even higher level, with true faith that the Torah protects the land (of Israel)."
Meanwhile, it would seem that the yeshiva students' stance on the matter is not going to be accepted, and the public struggle for a general draft continues.
In response, the Eda Haredit, an extremist haredi faction in Jerusalem's Mea Shearim neighborhood, has decided that next week it will hold a "children's protest" against the in-the-works draft bill.
Eda Haredit activists met and decided that 2,000 children would protest in Jerusalem next Monday – all handcuffed to each other as a protest against plans to draft haredim into the military and the national service.
At the same time, haredi officials are also trying to organize a "million man protest," as they call it, where all haredi factions would join together to demonstrate, but as yet the plans have not materialized.

Telluride Mayor Stu Fraser and Michael Martelon, CEO of the Telluride Tourism Board, can’t say for sure. But they know that hosting the finish of the first stage of this summer’s Pro Cycling Challenge will be huge.
“Thousands of visitors,” Fraser says. “As big as Bluegrass. Bigger than Bluegrass.”
But unlike Bluegrass, there is no limit to tickets that can be sold (which is how the town controls the size of the Bluegrass crowd). There are, in fact, no tickets; anyone can come to watch the pro cyclists race down the Hwy. 145 Spur and then through the streets of Telluride to the finish, making the real likely attendance impossible to project.
Not knowing in advance how many thousands will descend on Telluride on Aug. 19-21 is only the first of the challenges facing the local organizing committee, headed by Martelon. Martelon and Fraser and the several dozen other local officials and volunteers on the committee know they will need to provide 630 hotel rooms for racers, race organizers, and media on the two days – an effort being overseen by Frank Ruggeri of Telluride Alpine Lodging. They know they’ll have to control traffic and parking, and will have to provide for media access and security, and will have to attend to countless other technical details. And on top of that there are ancillary events to be planned to keep the crowds entertained before and after the race.
In return, the economic impact, Martelon, Fraser and Ruggeri said in an interview this week, should be immense, particularly considering the global media exposure.
Last year’s first ever Colorado Pro Cycling Challenge was unexpectedly successful in terms of participation by the world’s top bike racers, attendance and media coverage. On the heels of that precedent, organizers anticipate that this year’s event may be even bigger, perhaps the biggest sporting event ever held in Colorado, perhaps America’s Tour de France, or Colorado’s Kentucky Derby, for years and years to come – aspirations expressed in a promotional video.
If that happens, could Telluride be a regular stop?
Very possibly, thanks to favorable altitude and terrain in the surrounding San Juans that ensures superior stages that finish here, and, especially, Martelon suggested, after Telluride demonstrates this year that it can handle the event with aplomb.
While Telluride was selected to host a stage finish, Montrose was awarded the start of the next stage. Under the direction of Jenni Sopsic, executive director of the Montrose Association of Commerce and Tourism, the Montrose local organizing committee is working to create a festival atmosphere surrounding the start of the August 21 stage that will finish in Crested Butte. Since the entire tour won’t be spending a night in Montrose, and given the town’s broad geography, spectators should be able to find great viewing points from which to watch the racers whir past.
For the same reasons, immediate impacts in Montrose aren’t likely to be as profound as in Telluride. But like the Telluride organizers, Sopsic expects great marketing dividends from the international media exposure and increased visitation Montrose will receive by serving as a host city.
In Telluride, Martelon has devised a strategy that is new to Telluride to actually pay the hotels that provide the lodging required for the event by asking the entire lodging community to contribute $15 per night, per room for rooms not associated with the Pro
Cycling room block. It’s anticipated that lodgers will be able to make up the cost with slightly higher rates associated with events of this magnitude. The Town of Telluride is also contributing $37,500, a sum Mountain Village will be asked to match. A similar plan is underway to ask restaurants to contribute to a fund that will be tapped to pay for the food and beverage portion that the committee is obligated to provide to the race – again on the premise that restaurants will see much higher volume compared to a typical Sunday and Monday in late August.
The payback to the community at-large will come not only from the hordes of race organizers, international media and spectators expected to descend on town, generating sales and sales tax dollars, and the vast international exposure, but also from the expectation that at least some visitors attracted by the event will extend their stay beyond the two nights that the race will be here. Indeed, plans are being developed to create events before and after the race to encourage longer stays.
If all goes according to plan, another tangible takeaway will be a new iconic Telluride image: a pro cyclist crossing the finish line under a banner strung across main street in front of the courthouse, Ajax in the background, crowds cheering, his arms raised in exultation as he grabs the yellow jersey at the start of the world’s newest mega sports event.
How better for the USA Pro Cycling Challenge to brand itself or for Telluride to bask in the glow?

Outside (subtitled The Nathan Adler Diaries: A Hyper-cycle) is the nineteenth studio album by English recording artist David Bowie, released on 25 September 1995 by Arista Records. It marked Bowie's reunion with Brian Eno, whom he had worked with among others on his Berlin Trilogy in the 1970s. Outside centres on the characters of a dystopian world on the eve of the 21st century.

David Bowie is the self-titled debut studio album by English musician David Bowie, released on 1 June 1967, on Deram Records. Its style and content bears little overt resemblance to the type of music that he was later known for, such as the folk rock influenced "Space Oddity" or the glam rock of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.
David Bowie is the second studio album by the English musician David Bowie, released under that title by Philips in the UK, and as Man of Words/Man of Music by Mercury in the US, on 14 November 1969. It was reissued in 1972 by RCA Records as Space Oddity (the title of the opening track, which had reached No. 5 in the UK Singles Chart). Space Oddity was the name used for releases of the album in 1984, 1990, and 1999, but it reverted to the original, eponymous title for 2009 and 2015 reissues.

With a boxed cake mix, you can whip up a 2-layered birthday cake in no time. First developed in the 1930s, cake mixes are the fast and easy solution when it's time to make a birthday cake. Combine the cake mix with eggs, oil and water, and you're on your way. Just grease the pans well and allow the cakes to cool completely before you frost them. You can slather the frosting on with a knife or use a piping bag for a more decorative look. Even if you've never made a birthday cake before, you can accomplish this in less than two hours -- including cooling time.
Preheat the oven according to the package directions. A thoroughly heated oven ensures a moist, light cake.
Grease two cake pans with shortening or spray them with a non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle flour in the pans and shake the pans to evenly coat the surfaces.
Combine the cake mix with additional ingredients according to the package directions. Use a glass measuring cup designed for fluids to measure the liquid ingredients. Cake mixes sometimes have a chemical taste caused by artificial flavorings.
Mix the cake mix with a stand or hand mixer for 1 minute on low to combine all the ingredients. Mix an additional minute on medium to ensure a smooth consistency, but don't over-mix.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake pans and bake according to the recipe -- usually 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
Place the pans on a cooling rack for 15 minutes. Then, loosen each cake by going around it with a knife. Invert the pans onto the cooling racks to remove the cakes. Allow the cakes to cool for an hour or two.
Place one cake on a plate or cake stand. Spread frosting on top of the cake. Place the second cake securely on top of the first cake. Spread frosting on top of the second cake and smooth it gently across the top and over the sides until the entire cake is completely frosted. You can use canned frosting, homemade buttercream or a boiled frosting.
Cover the cake with a cake protector or plastic wrap and store it at room temperature for up to two days. If the frosting is soft, chill the cake in the refrigerator before you wrap it to harden the frosting. Wrap and refrigerate cakes that are frosted with perishable ingredients, such as cream cheese or whipping cream.

Roulette Variations Review EntwineTech LIVE Dealer Game
EntwineTech is considered one of the largest LIVE dealer studios in the world with an interesting selection of LIVE dealer games at their disposal. One of the largest products is their range of LIVE Roulette, with a total of four variations for players to choose. Each LIVE dealer roulette variation comes with its unique range of features as well, ensuring players can enjoy a wide array of betting options.
Big Screen Roulette
Big Screen Roulette from EntwineTech is one-of-a-kind with a much bigger display of the table layout and roulette wheel, allowing players to completely immersive themselves in the game as if they were sitting at a land-based casino. The LIVE dealer sits behind the roulette wheel with the betting layout taking up half of the screen size to make betting easy and convenient. Placed above the table is a second window that displays the roulette wheel from above thanks to a second camera that’s been installed to offer a better view of the outcome.
The European Roulette offering from EntwineTech utilises a smaller window to display the LIVE dealer and roulette wheel. The rest of the screen is made up of an animated betting layout below the LIVE stream window, and the betting information and historical stats placed on either side of the LIVE dealer. Also, players can also find a LIVE dealer roadmap on the screen to browse through the selection of games on offer. European Roulette utilises 37 numbers with a single zero and a range of additional side bets. The overall layout is exceptionally appealing with a user-friendly design.
LIVE Asian Roulette is another fantastic offering from EntwineTech that is streamed from their studios in Asia. The game is based on European roulette, using a single zero, with the house edge at 2.70%. The LIVE dealer is placed at the top of the screen in a rather small window where players can only see the dealer and the roulette wheel. The rest of the screen consists of betting information on the left, including minimum bet amount, maximum payout, and your internet connectivity strength. On the right, players will find historical data, allowing them to make an educated prediction on the next number or outcome, and a roadmap that will allow players to view the range of other LIVE dealer games on offer.
3D Roulette from Entwine Tech utilises an animated 3D design to display the betting table. The table layout takes up most of the screen and looks quite realistic with top-notch graphics and animations to show the chips on the table. The LIVE dealer and roulette wheel is placed in the top right-hand corner while betting information and remaining time is located on the left-hand side of the screen. The bigger betting layout is ideal for online players that want to experience a LIVE dealer setting without the LIVE dealer taking up most of the screen. This variation from EntwineTech focuses more on the actual game as opposed to the attractive LIVE dealers that oversee the game.
EntwineTech continues to deliver an excellent collection of LIVE dealer games, regularly expanding to ensure they are rated as one of the best LIVE dealer studios in the world. This is particularly the case with their four variations of LIVE roulette. Each LIVE dealer roulette game is unique in its own way and ensures a wider audience will find what they are looking for when playing games powered by EntwineTech.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) – Face masks are once again required inside all buildings at Great Smoky Mountains National Park with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reporting Tennessee counties within the park are considered high risk for COVID-19.
Visitors to Great Smoky Mountains National Park are required to wear a mask inside all park buildings regardless of vaccination status. Masks are not required outdoors within the park.
Since the National Park Service (NPS) federal mask mandate was rescinded earlier this year, public lands managers were delegated the authority to make operational decisions based on site-level conditions, according to Dana Soehn, management assistant for the National Park Service.
The park is comprised of parts of Blount, Sevier and Cocke counties, all of which are rated at high risk of COVID-19 by the CDC as of Aug. 9. The NPS began using the CDC’s COVID-19 Community Levels metric in late February to allow individual parks to make decisions on masking based on local conditions.
“We have been continually monitoring the CDC’s COVID Data Tracker to ascertain current COVID-19 transmission levels within the six local counties that surround the Park to assess the need for operational changes,” Soehn said. “Per NPS policy and the Smokies Adaptive Operations COVID-19 Plan, masks are required in all federal buildings if one county within the park is in the HIGH transmission level for seven consecutive days.”
The CDC divides every county in the U.S. into three categories of COVID-19 risk: high, medium and low. The two North Carolina counties within the park boundaries, Swain and Haywood, are rated at medium risk as of Aug. 9.
According to Soehn, on Aug. 4, the transmission levels for Blount and Sevier Counties were recorded as HIGH.
Three data sets pertaining to COVID-19 are used by the CDC to determine the levels of community risk: new cases, hospital admissions and percent of beds occupied by COVID-19 patients. If conditions are “low or medium” then mask wearing is not required for staff, visitors, or others regardless of vaccination status.
“We will continue to monitor community transmission levels and if rates fall back to medium or low for Blount and Sevier Counties for seven consecutive days, we will remove the masking requirement,” NPS said in their statement.
The mask requirement within the park was first implemented in January 2021. It was dropped a few months later but returned in August 2021 as cases of the Omicron variant rose.

There are many free citation generators available and you should never have to pay for one. Citation generators normally support only a few citation styles (the most common). You will manually enter your citation information yourself, for each paper and then they convert that information into a citation. These citations do not integrate with your word processor. This means you have to copy each citation over to your bibliography individually, and if you make any changes, you have to go back and update all the citations yourself.
Because citation generators are generated by machines, they can sometimes have errors. They are also not always up-to-date and they can have formatting errors. After you use a citation generator, it is very important that you still double-check the citation and make sure the information is correct.
Citation generators are useful if you just need to make an APA, MLA or other common citation for your bibliography.
BibMe is easy to use and has many styles available. (MLA, APA, Chicago and other styles)
EasyBib is easy to use and has many styles available and is updated frequently. (MLA, APA, Chicago and others)
The image below shows an APA citation generated using BibMe.
Many of the PSU library databases have citation generation tools available when you access the research articles. The image below shows the EBSCOhost "Cite" tool available in the databases we have on that platform. Many other databases have similar tools, although they may be in different locations on the page.
These citation tools will take the information from the research article and will generate a citation in the most common citation formats (MLA, APA, Chicago and others). You can then copy and paste that information into your bibliography, making sure to double-check it for errors.
Microsoft Word has built-in tools to create citations, bibliographies, and manage sources. This tool is built into Microsoft Word, and is an easy way to keep track of your citations and to make sure they are properly formatted. The citations will save with your Word document and they will update if any changes are made.
This tool is useful if you only want to create in-text citations or a bibliography. It does not have all of the added features of Zotero, Mendeley and other citation management software (such as annotations and highlighting). Additionally, you cannot capture citations while you do research. Instead, you manually enter bibliographic information for each citation into Microsoft Word.
Add citations by clicking Manage Sources. Choose the citation style from the most common citation styles (APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.) As you type, you can use the Insert Citation button to insert in-text citations, and you can click the Bibliography button to create a bibliography out of some or all of the citations you entered. When you have finished, make sure that the format of the paper, citations and bibliographies matches your assignment.
The citation tools built into Word 2013 and how they look on a paper are shown in the image below.
Google Docs has a built-in citation tool. When you use Google Docs, go to the Tools tab and then click on Explore. This opens a panel with a search box. It lets you search Google or your Google Drive to find resources to cite. The quote marks button allows you to select a citation style like APA or MLAt. Google will then try to find the article and the correct citation, and lets you plug that information back into your paper, making sure to double-check it for errors.

Friday night, me, my dad and Alex saw the Whalers beat the Brampton Battalion 4-3 in a shootout. Andy Bathgate of the Whalers won the game with a shootout goal. It was great! Andy's grandfather played for the Maple Leafs and Red Wings in the NHL and is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. His name is Andy too. I put Andy's picture up because he won the game. They also announced my name over the loudspeaker because I won the Whalers Kid's Club prize which was a signed photo of Alex Aleardi which was good because Alex is my favorite player.
Today, my team played the Arsenal team who were in first place and undefeated. On the way to the game, I told my dad I was nervous about playing Arsenal because they are so good and my dad said we could win if we played well. Well we won 4-3 in a shootout. I was the fourth shooter from our team in the shootout. My dad says in hockey, the coach sends the best player first, the second best player second, the third best player third, just like that for the shootout so I was the fourth player chosen. I deked the goalie but he did not move so I tried to flip it over his shoulder but it went over the net and I did not score. Then two shooters later, Josh from our team scored to win the game. We were all celebrating on the ice and the last picture is when we jumped on our goalie. I am number 9 with the white helmet.
The first picture is me with my shootout. Some of the pictures are a little blurry because my parents did not plan on taking pictures but when they saw we were playing good and might beat Arsenal, they got a cheap camera and started taking pictures. I think they look ok.
My team, the Novi Wings are 3-3 this year. This is our first year in this higher league but we are getting better and it is fun.

Alabama has improved its existing roads over the past few years, but according to a recent study “Repair Priorities 2014” put out by Smart Growth for America and Taxpayers for Common Sense, the state has a long way to go to bring deteriorating roads into good condition.
“States already have a significant backlog of repair work to do,” the report said. “Thousands of lane miles in poor condition represent billions of dollars of needed repair spending. According to American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, every $1 spent to keep a road in good condition avoids $6-$14 needed later to rebuild the same road once it has deteriorated significantly.”
Alabama spends about $252 million of its $556 million transportation budget yearly on road expansion, representing 45 percent of road work. About $304 million is put into road repairs, which represents 55 percent of the budget.
By comparison, Mississippi spends only 3 percent of its $619 million transportation budget on road repairs, putting $603 million into road expansion.
In 2008, according to the report, 51 percent of the roads in Alabama were listed in good condition. By 2011, the percentage rose to 66 percent.
The report says that states which place more money into expansion are costing taxpayers down the road, as costs rise as road conditions decline and also rise as road networks expand.
“The good news is states can make a significant dent in the current backlog of roads in poor condition simply by reallocating funds within their existing capital budgets,” the report recommends. “Many states will need to reconsider spending on expansion and redirect significant portions of their existing capital budgets toward repair and preservation.”
The report predicts Alabama would have to spend $674 million a year for 20 years to bring all of its roads into good condition.
Collectively, all states would need to spend 45.2 billion a year for 20 years to bring all of the nation's roads into good condition.
