Calgary Beer Core - Past Shows (2016)

Past Events - 2016

It was the year that all our heroes died. Or at least that's how it felt.

2016-12-31 - Calgary Beer Core's New Year's Eve Punk Vs Metal #50

We know how to ring in the new year in style, and this one was no exception. The culmination of the Punk Vs. Metal Season 4 battles, we had From Under The Stone, Pelican Death Squad, Statue Of Demur, ChaosBeing, Lordosis, Heyoka's Mirror, Meggido, and Citizen Rage play amazing sets and we all had just an amazing time. Unfortunately, Our Old Ways were unable to make the show.

Punk Vs Metal is a Beer Core tradition, and this show was no exception. It was fun, we earned some hard-as-fuck hangovers, and the room was full of awesome, smiling faces doing awesome, smiling things.

2016-12-16 - CBCTrain Funk Dance Party

Seriously fun night, man. We made a train track out of red duct tape... We had Freak Motif play killer funk music. We had Pelican Death Squad as honorary DJs for the night, spinning (if you call going to youtube "spinning") great funk tracks... We had the lovely miss Taylor McNallie host the show... We had costumes... We had giveaways... For one brief, shining moment, we were sex hot superstars of funk.

2016-12-09 - CBC Presents Rock For Generations Of Metal

We helped make a baby.

Seriously. This show was a fundraiser for our friends Meesh and Greg, who need to go through IVF to have a baby together, and that's an expensive process. Greg and Meesh approached Big Ugly Jim to put together a fundraiser, and this is what they came up with. Performances by Vile Insignia, Gales Of Avalon, Caveat, Illuminated Minerva, and Hazzerd, plus delicious banana bread and a silent auction. I think there was a silent auction. It has been a while. But all in all, we raised $1,420 towards the goal of making babies appear in Meesh's tummy, and we're all kinds of proud of that.

2016-12-08 - Punk Vs. Metal Season 4 Episode 4

The final preliminary round of the Punk Vs. Metal Season 4 Tournament was a total blast. We saw The Electric Revival (who found out they couldn't play New Year's Eve, but they played a set anyway) take on Heyoka's Mirror (don't let the poster fool you, there's a mirror there), Pelican Death Squad, and Lordosis. All of the bands put on ridiculous killer sets, and we decided that everyone but Electric Revival were going to go on to play New Year's Eve. This was an absolute monster of a show.

2016-12-01 - Punk Vs Metal Season 4 Episode 3

Round 3 of the prelims (yeah, I don't know why I don't have the proper poster) was a complete blast. This time, we had Carpet Bombers, Citizen Rage, Statue Of DemurReckless Heroes, and Killed By The Nine. The winners of this night were Citizen Rage and Statue Of Demur, but the real winners were everyone that watched the show, because it was fucking sick.

2016-11-17 - Calgary Beer Core Proudly Present The Raygun Cowboys

I'm gonna go full dork for a second and tell you that I absolutely fucking love The Raygun Cowboys. The high energy rockabilly blast complete with horn section just makes me so bloody happy every time. And to completement them, we brought out the Tarrantinoesque instrumental surf rock fuckers from The 427s, the dadcore radness of The Foul English, and the inimitable garagey/rockabilly type sounds of KV Raucous. From start to finish, it was an amazingly rad show, and just reminded me again and again why I love this band so much.

Some pictures from when we sponsored Punk Rock Bowling

Meghan Markle made her assistant cry: Report

Meghan Markle’s diva behaviour left her personal assistant in tears, according to a new report in Britain’s The Mirror. A source told the publication that Melissa Toubati, 39, quit after working with Prince Harry’s wife for just six months because of Markle’s attitude.

The Mirror insider said of Toubati, “Her job was highly pressurized and in the end it became too much. She put up with quite a lot. Meghan put a lot of demands on her and it ended up with her in tears.”She is hugely talented and played a pivotal role in the success of the royal wedding. She’ll be missed by everyone in the household.

“Melissa is a total professional and fantastic at her job, but things came to a head and it was easier for them both to go their separate ways,” the source noted. previously reported that Toubati had resigned her position with Markle, now 37 and pregnant, amid rumours about the new royal’s diva ways. In royal biographer Robert Jobson’s book Charles at 70: Thoughts, Hopes and Dreams, he claimed that before the wedding, Prince Harry, 34, raised his voice and yelled, “What Meghan wants, she gets!”

Also, there are allegations that the Queen warned Harry about “difficult” Markle’s attitude after a dispute over what tiara she could wear on her wedding day. Royal correspondent Richard Palmer has written, “It is clear that Meghan is regarded as difficult and demanding by some in the family and on the staff.”

And this weekend news leaked from the Daily Mail sources that Markle had wanted an improvement before she walked down the aisle at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle in her May wedding. The Mail’s sources said Markle allegedly was upset about by the musty odour of the 15th century chapel and “asked for air fresheners to be deployed before her guests arrived.”

Her request was reportedly turned down by royal staffers. Also, Markle and Prince Harry will no longer be living near Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton, causing talk that the move out of Kensington Palace was the former Suits star’s idea.

Now come the details about the reason behind her assistant Toubati’s abrupt exit. She was a skilled professional who had previously worked for X-Factor judges Robbie Williams and Ayda Field.

According to the Mirror, when Toubati resigned as Markle’s personal assistant, a palace source was authorized to praise her and the role she played in organizing Harry’s royal wedding.

But one royal source also told the publication former actress Markle has been judged too harshly as she tries to fit into royal life: “She is simply not afraid to express her opinion. “While many find her a little pushy there are many in the royal household who have quickly taken to her.”

Conservatives deny that the rise of Trump demonstrates their racism, anti-Semitism, and misogyny. “At least half of that stuff is half made-up,” says a (supposed) Trump spokesman.

A Kinder, Gentler White Nationalism

Editor’s Note: this is a satirical article. No actual interview with any Trump advisor took place.

People in the Trump Conservative Coalition do not like the media. They sometimes appear friendly to broadcasters who are complimentary, but those who insist on asking pointed questions are detested bigly.

Which is why it was such a surprise when Fred Gaffanay, a Trump Presidential Transition Team member, offered to sit down and chat with me about what the American people can expect from a Trump presidency.

“Let’s start with something in Trump’s victory speech,” I began. “Trump said that the country is going to be repairing roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, and airports.”

“Yes, Mr. Trump is in favor of a great infrastructure initiative,” Gaffanay said.

“Okay, I have two questions about that,” I said. “First, Obama proposed infrastructure spending and it was rejected by Republicans in congress.”

“Things are different now,” Gaffanay stated.

“Conservative president, conservative congress,” Gaffanay said.

“So conservatives feel that what’s good for America depends on which party proposes something?”

“Oh no,” Gaffanay replied. “The party proposing something makes no difference if the plan will strengthen the United States.”

“But if that’s the case–” I started to say.

“But the way conservatives vote on it will be different.”

“Ah, I see.”

“That’s part of conservative values.”

“Yes, it certainly is,” I agreed. “The other question about Trump’s infrastructure plan is that it is a massive giveaway of tax credits to for-profit firms building for-profit projects and therefore would not provide the type of infrastructure upgrades the country needs.”

“Where did you get that?” he asked.

“From reading the plan.”

“Oh. Well, if you’re going to go down that road…” he said, letting the sentence trail off.

“That’s just the point,” I said, “we soon won’t be able to go down any roads.”

“Well, it’s like Sheryl Crow said, ‘Every Day is a Winding Road,’ right?”

“What does that mean?” I asked.

“Next question,” he said.

“All right, what about the problem of providing healthcare coverage to all citizens? Other advanced nations do this but conservatives in the USA resist it.”

“Oh, we want everyone to have healthcare coverage, but they have to pay for it. There is no free lunch, you know.”

“But some people can’t afford to pay for healthcare coverage and still have money left over for food.”

“Then that problem will take care of itself,” Gaffanay said smugly.

“But the rest of us will have to pay for the medical problems of families as they starve to death,” I pointed out.

“You can donate to those people if you wish,” Gaffanay said.

“That’s missing the point,” I replied.

“Okay, look,” Gaffanay said, “what will happen is that we will be fully engaged in seeing to it that our attention is always focused on the most pressing issues that greatly affect the well-being of the United States of America and not be diverted by topics that are ancillary, superfluous, nonessential, redundant, and unessential.”

“In other words, we’ll all just look the other way.”

“I’m not sure that will work.”

“The success of Conservatism depends on it,” Gaffanay said, “and the American public’s lack of knowledge is not letting us down.”

“You have a point,” I admitted. “Let me ask you about taxes. I pay taxes. My neighbors pay taxes. Everyone I’ve ever met pays taxes. But Trump doesn’t pay taxes. That doesn’t seem fair.”

“Mr. Trump pays all of the taxes he’s required to pay under the law.”

“And now he wants to allow all rich people to pay even less in taxes.”

“Well, they are the job creators and they should be rewarded for that,” Gaffanay said primly.

“Warren Buffett is a job creator and he pays taxes.”

“Mr. Trump will be removing that burden from Mr. Buffett.”

“I guess we’ll see about that,” I said. “What is being done to end all of Trump’s many conflicts of interest?”

“What conflicts of interest?”

“Trump’s financial ties to China, Trump’s support for Vladimir Putin, Trump’s financial involvement with a German bank, Trump’s investments with oil pipeline firms, Trump’s business deals in more than a dozen foreign countries–”

“All of that is simply a media-generated tempest in a teapot dome,” Gaffanay said, getting the analogy wrong. “The best policy procedure for Americans would be to continue on one’s expected course of action with the realization that there are no indicators of actuality to discern.”

“In other words, ‘move along, nothing to see here,’ is that it?”

“I see,” I said. “What can you tell me about the stories regarding Trump’s embrace of the KKK and alt-right hate groups?” I asked.

“That they’re just that — stories. At least half of that stuff is half made-up,” Gaffanay said. “Honestly, Mr. Trump wants to work for all Americans,” Gaffanay added.

“Uh-huh,” I said as eloquently as possible. “Let’s look at some things that are not made-up: Jeff Sessions, Trump’s choice for Attorney General, is a racist, and Steve Bannon, a White House advisor, has ties to Breitbart, a notorious home for blatant misogyny, white supremacy, anti-Semitism, dangerous conspiracy theories…”

“Hold on, hold on — I think you’ll find that the policies backed by Mr. Trump will take into consideration all points of view and that the Trump administration will advocate on behalf of those who are true loyal American citizens,” he said. “The conservative approach encompasses strength as well as compassion,” Gaffanay insisted.

“So you’re saying that conservatives are now offering a kinder, gentler white nationalism,” I suggested.

“Yes, exactly,” Gaffanay replied.

“Thank you for your time,” I said. “I’m sure that Americans will now feel a lot better about what’s going to happen to them over the next four years.”

Summer Is Cherries, Cherries Are Summer

I swear I could eat a bucket of these things everyday. They are my favorite fruit. The taste and tecture and color can't be beaten. I also like how they gently clean out my digestive track.

In the winter I have to get by with cherrie filled snacks like 'Hostess Fruit Pies', cherry 'Life Savers' or even cherry flavored lip gloss. But every summer I am drawn to the roadside sellers like a moth to a flame. You would think that some South American country would find a way to grow and export this food to Canada to make our beloved winter that much better but that is not the case. So enjoy cherry season while it lasts folks.

Fast And Furious Five (2011)

There is nothing I love in the summer more than some dumb action movie that puts logic squarely in the back seat in favor of high octane thrills. There is no way that the escape plan that starts the movie and gives Vin Diesel's character Dom his freedom would have ever worked but it's a convenient way to get over the little problem of his 25 year jail sentence from the last 'Fast and Furious' movie.

Like everything else in this film the story doesn't linger too long on anything that doesn't advance the story and this one is chock full of story. The filmakers know exactly who their characters are and give the audience more that what they are looking for from any ordinary action moive.

This movie assumes that you already know the back story of it's three main characters - Vin Diesel as Dom, Jordana Brewster as his sister Mia and Paul Walker as Mia's boyfriend and the ex-undercover agent who tried to bring down Dom's car stealing ring in the first 'Fast and Furious' movie and was the one responsible for putting Dom in jail in the first place. However his respect for this outlaw and the love he had for the outlaw's sister, makes him chose the life of a fugitive. Check out the trailer from 2001's original.

I also appreciate a movie that doesn't show me the same stunts I have seen a thousand times. There is a hiest of cars that takes place at the beginning of this movie, the likes of which I guarantee you have never seen before. The way Vin Diesel, Jordan Brewster, Paul Walker et al steal those cars off a moving train is both thrilling and original.

Setting the movie in the Rio is also interesting. From the crowded slums to the beautiful beaches the city is another interesting character and one that isn't often the setting for this type of movie.

I am a fan of Vin Diesle when he plays roles like Dom. He is only slightly less bad ass than his other famous character, Riddick, from 'Pitch Black' and 'The Chronicles of Riddick'. He is the 'man with the plan' who is really all about the family he creates with the people he choses to surround himself with.

Another huge surprise was Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) as a hard, take no shit D.E.A Agent who is hot in pursuit of our car stealing trio after three D.E.A agents are killed in the train job. I loved him in this film. It was a huge get to bring in an action star of Johnson's quality in such an important supporting role. He just elevates a whole important sub-plot that I believe would not have resolved itself in such an awesome way with anyone else in the role.

If that wasn't enough of an obstacle to overcome for our 'heroes', there is a Rio crime boss, Reyes, (Joaquim de Almeida playing another version of the same bad guy he has played reliably for the past couple of decades) who is after a computer chip that is in one of the cars that was stolen.

That chip contains information that gives our trio reason to put together a crack team of individuals with the kind of skills necessary to not only bring down Reyes but insure that they will never have to live the fugitive life any longer because stealing this crime boses money would insure it. That's when the movie really got interesting for me.

I enjoyed how even with this large of a cast, we were allowed to get to know a little about everyone gathered for this job. Each is quirky and interesting so that when things go down we actually care about how it all turns out for them There is a nice couple of scenes at the end where we get to see thier immediate futures.

I don't want to spoil it for you but let me say that like everything else in this movie, the hiest plan fit right into the goofy logic of the world this movie creates and it was the last thing I ever expected.

So high marks from me for a viewing experience that was not only exciting but full of cool characters that I would be happy take another ride on the wild side with. I so appreciate a film that didn't fall into the same old predictable trappings of a genre that can often be by it very nature, predictable.

I posted the trailer because that is my habit with my reviews but I encourage you NOT to watch it if you want to fully enjoy this movie. It is a terrible trailer. Watch it until 2:01 because the end contains a major spoiler. Go back after you have watched the film and tell me if you don't agree with me.

Now THIS Is Cool Style

I am not so self-centered as to think that I could ever pull off this look so I won't even try. Top Hat and a cape with a monocle, yes. Superhero chic? Sadly,no.

Freakin' Vampire Squid

OMG these things just pop out of my worst nightmares. And for all of you that are just watching the pretty colors, I gotta tell you, YOU ARE ALREADY DEAD!! That is how they GETCHA!!

And who was the genius who gave this abomination the name 'Vampire Squid'? That name just makes this thing that extra bit more horrific than it needed to be.

The Vampire Squid is almost entirely covered in light-producing organs called photopores. The animal has great control over the organs, capable of producing disorienting flashes of light for fractions of a second to several minutes in duration. The intensity and size of the photophores can also be modulated. Appearing as small white discs, the photophores are larger and more complex at the tips of the arms and at the base of the two fins, but are absent from the underside of the caped arms. Two larger white areas on top of the head were initially believed to also be photophores, but have turned out to be photoreceptors.

Tumblr Joke Of The Day

I must be really tired because this just cracked me up.

Doctor: You had twins, a boy and a girl, and they are both fine. Luckily, your brother named them for you.
Woman: Oh no, not my brother! He's an idiot! What did he name the girl?
Doctor: Denise.
Woman: Well it isn't so bad, and what did he call the boy?
Doctor: Denephew.

So THIS Is The Kind Of Show SYFY Would Rather Make Than 'Stargate Universe'?

I thought I saw this show before when it was called 'Mutant X'. I guess I shouldn't automatically hate something just because SYFY made it but I am done with that channel. What I see in this trailer does nothing to change my mind.

I have no idea if 'Warehouse 13' is coming back or is gone for good and that is the last time that I was entertained by any original programming SYFY produced. Their monster movies were once fun but have since devolved into crap. Once you have mutated all the dangerous animal species you can think of their are few place left to go.

Plus, when you can't put enough effort into something like 'Sharktopus' to even make it watchable, then it's time for me to say my goodbyes.

On last month’s trip to Oahu, the most unexpected shoot of our trip turned out to be the one I’ll never forget. We’d been chatting with Kim Johnson (visionary behind Kokua Hawaii Foundation and wife of platinum-selling singer-songwriter, Jack) about doing a story on how she lives and entertains at their home on the North Shore. It soon became evident that Kim had little interest in being interviewed for a lifestyle piece… but we barely noticed as we were carried along by her wholehearted vision for what became quite a different story idea. Though the concept was a little outside the realm of our typical shoots, our entire team was quickly sold on her vision for the important story that she knew could be brought to life.

Kim and Jack live with their three kids on the North Shore of Oahu, home to (we discovered) some of the world’s best poke bowls, shaved ice, and surf breaks. To say that it’s a “laid-back” place is putting it mildly; no shirt, no shoes in the North Shore is a way of life. And although the family embraces the sun-drenched vibes of island life, they’re also passionate advocates for the causes close to their heart – and don’t hesitate to dive in and become active players in enacting change.

We quickly learned that Kim’s go-with-the-flow attitude belies a warrior spirit that’s a continued force in bringing about environmental change in Hawaii.

The morning after our initial phone call, we found ourselves at a local elementary school, rain jackets pulled over our heads against the drizzle that had rolled in with the fog. With the mountains and ocean as our backdrop, we talked with the kids who excitedly shared which crops they were currently tending as well as a remarkably insightful explanation of photosynthesis, and we all worked to harvest fresh basil for the macadamia nut pesto we’d be making with Kim’s friend, the renowned Honolulu-based chef Ed Kenney, later that day.

We were there to learn about Kokua Hawaii Foundation’s AINA In Schools initiative, a farm-to-school movement founded in 2006 to empower children to grown their own food and reduce waste. As we roamed the garden plots, I chatted with Kim and was moved to learn about the real changes that AINA In Schools was making in thousands of kids lives around the island. I wanted to learn as much as I could and find out how I could enact some of these same positive influences back home, both in my own family and in my kids schools. A few of my biggest takeaways about the initiative, along with some simple ways that anyone can get involved:

Nutrition education empowers students to try new foods and make healthy choices that will last a lifetime.

What you can do: Download and print the Foundation’s Healthy & Waste Free Lunches bookmarks so you always have this handy resource available when you – or your kids’ – lunches are feeling stale. I love their practical ideas for packing lunches that are nutritious and kind to the environment.

Garden-based learning transforms the school gardens (now in 23 schools in Hawaii!) into a learning laboratory where all subjects are explored.

What you can do: Support a garden club, volunteer at a local school garden, or plant a garden at home and harvest your own produce – here’s a great guide to building a raised garden bed.

Healthy food on campus increases local produce in school lunches and snacks to provide healthy choices and support local farms.

What you can do: Make it a weekly goal to shop the farmer’s market or subscribe to a CSA box of local produce. Supporting local farmers is not only an important way to support the environment; the produce you bring home is fresher, healthier, and more flavorful.

To cap off this special day, we took our fresh herbs straight to Ed Kenney’s kitchen at his light-filled casual spot, Kaimuki Superette. He took a break from cooking that day’s offerings (think seared tuna club, and watermelon with chile-lime salt & jalapeño) to show the kids how to whip up a batch of pesto using the basil they’d picked just an hour before.

As we all sat down to savor it tossed with fresh pasta and cherry tomatoes, it was a reminder that food is better is when it’s truly fresh and harvested with love. Chef Kenney’s mantra summed up the day pretty perfectly:

Local first, organic whenever possible, with aloha always.

Garden Fresh Pesto

Serves 4

1 cup fresh basil

3 cloves roasted garlic

1/4 cup macadamia nuts

1/8 cup nutritional yeast or parmesan cheese

1/4 cup olive oil

a pinch of salt and pepper

Put all ingredients above in the blender or food processor and blend.

Add more salt and pepper to taste.

Add on to fresh pasta and garnish with cherry tomatoes.

    Very cool! It’d be amazing to see CS explore the zero waste movement a little more – maybe even a week long experiment trying to be zero waste! 🙂

• Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal

    A large-scale instance [of political smear-tactics], in the 1930’s, was the introduction of the word “isolationism” into our political vocabulary. It was a derogatory term, suggesting something evil, and it had no clear, explicit definition. It was used to convey two meanings: one alleged, the other real — and to damn both.

    The alleged meaning was defined approximately like this: “Isolationism is the attitude of a person who is interested only in his own country and is not concerned with the rest of the world.” The real meaning was: “Patriotism and national self-interest.”

    What, exactly, is “concern with the rest of the world”? Since nobody did or could maintain the position that the state of the world is of no concern to this country, the term “isolationism” was a straw man used to misrepresent the position of those who were concerned with this country’s interests. The concept of patriotism was replaced by the term “isolationism” and vanished from public discussion.

    The number of distinguished patriotic leaders smeared, silenced, and eliminated by that tag would be hard to compute. Then, by a gradual, imperceptible process, the real purpose of the tag took over: the concept of “concern” was switched into “selfless concern.” The ultimate result was a view of foreign policy which is wrecking the United States to this day: the suicidal view that our foreign policy must be guided, not by considerations of national self-interest, but by concern for the interests and welfare of the world, that is, of all countries except our own.

  • The Ayn Rand Letter
    Observe the double-standard switch of the anti-concept of “isolationism.” The same intellectual groups (and even some of the same aging individuals) who coined that anti-concept in World War II — and used it to denounce any patriotic opponent of America’s self-immolation — the same groups who screamed that it was our duty to save the world (when the enemy was Germany or Italy or fascism), are now rabid isolationists who denounce any U.S. concern with countries fighting for freedom, when the enemy is communism and Soviet Russia.

Yesterday we saw the distinct difference between sports and real life. It was a good day for hockey, but it was also an awful one.

Let’s start with the good: The Hockey News picked the Oilers to finish last in the Western Conference.

I’m sure Oiler fans are wondering how this possibly can be good, but stick with me.

It is good because it gives us a topic to debate, and when you consider the bad – Rick Rypien’s passing – this prognostication isn’t that worrisome.

Before you Oiler fans start ripping the Hockey News for being stupid, irrelevent, anti-Edmonton or any other colourful phrase/adjective, keep in the mind that they predicted the Oilers would finish 30th last season. They might not be perfect, but they are far from uninformed or biased.

Most smart Oiler fans have already erased last season from their memory.

You’ve forgotten that the Oilers finished a whopping 35 points out of the playoffs.

You haven’t sat down and realized that they had 18 fewer wins than any playoff team in the western conference.

Hell, they had five fewer wins than the 14th place team in the western conference, but none of that matters now.

Taylor Hall is a year older, five pounds heavier and much stronger. Jordan Eberle, Magnus Paajarvi and Linus Omark will surely improve on their 43, 34 and 27 point campaigns.

Ryan Whitney, Ales Hemsky and Shawn Horcoff will be healthy for the majority of the season.

Devan Dubnyk will emerge as a solid netminder, and a 14-day stint in tent city has given Nikolai Khabibulin a new perspective on life; so he’ll be hungry to prove he is a still a solid NHL goalie.

The additions of Ben Eager, Darcy Hordichuk, Andy Sutton and a more mature Theo Peckham give the Oilers "functional" toughness. and that will surely make them harder to play against.

Tom Gilbert and Ladislav Smid will finally play with some consistency and become bonafide top-four D-men.

Cam Barker will emerge as one of the best UFA signings of the summer. He’ll play with a chip on his shoulder all season, and he’ll show the doubters in Minnesota and Chicago that he was worthy of being a top-five pick.

Sam Gagner will put an end to the hottest debate in the Nation; and emerge as a 65-point player.

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will be the "Jeff Skinner" of the 2011/2012 season. Even though many doubted his ability to play as an 18-year-old NHLer,  he will surprise many and produce 45 points.

And of course having the best combination of hockey hair in the NHL, Ryan Smyth and Ryan Jones, will ensure the Oilers won’t finish 15th in the west, but instead they will compete for a playoff spot.

The Hockey News’ obvious disregard for all of these "facts", will allow you to mock them endlessly come April when the Oil play their first playoff game in six seasons.

What’s good about THN’s prediction is that it gives sports fans something to discuss and debate. It allows you to write, blog, text, tweet and talk about the upcoming season with such passion and certainty that you forget about the real world.

What’s great about prognosticating articles is that none of truly know how the season will unfold.

I think it is highly unlikely the Oilers finish 15th, but I also doubt they will make the playoffs, however, I’ll be anxiously watching and analyzing how the season unfolds.

The bad arrived when we heard that former Vancouver Canuck and current Winnipeg Jet, Rick Rypien, passed away. Rypien was only 27. He spent seven seasons in the Canucks organization, with the past three and a half being in the NHL with the Canucks.

Rypien stood 5’11" and weighed 195 pounds. He was a small compared to the heavyweights that he fought, and often many of us wondered how a guy that small in stature would willingly drop his gloves to fight guys who were much bigger. I found out today that Rypien had been fighting a battle that was much tougher than any on-ice opponent he’d ever faced.

He struggled with mental illness.

What saddens me the most is that some will want to use Rypien’s unfortunate passing as a way to further their own anti-fighting stance. Some will suggest that is was fighting, and the possible injuries he sustained in those fights, that led to his battle with depression.  Many will choose that route because it is much easier to debate the merits of allowing fighting in hockey than to look at the bigger issue in this situation; Depression.

For the past few years it was quietly whispered, but never discussed openly, that Rypien was battling depression. We’d rather discuss the merits of fighting instead of the symptoms and signs of depression, because, frankly, the topic of fighting isn’t as uncomfortable.

It turns out that Rypien had been battling depression well before his NHL career.

Dan Waschuk played with Rypien for three years in Regina. He emailed me an honest insight into what likely started Rypien’s struggles.

"I was fortunate to be a teammate of Ricks for the better part of three years with the Pats. At that time he suffered a horrific personal off-ice tragedy. As 17 and 18 year olds, we never knew how to act or help him through it.  It was sort of just pushed aside and we never spoke of it. Perhaps if we were properly educated on these sorts of issues we could have recognized what was going on, and in some way made a difference. I have only great memories of Ryp and I offer my deepest condolences to his family. He will be greatly missed and perhaps we can all learn from this tragedy."

Many of us, including me when I was in my twenties, think depression is just an excuse for being lazy or unmotivated. "What does he/she have to be depressed about," is a common response. Unless you’ve battled depression it is hard to fully understand or describe how one feels. I’ve seen people very close to me suffer from it, and while I’m much more sensitive and understanding to their plight, at times I just can’t relate to how they are feeling.

I’ve learned that showing empathy rather than trying to understand why they feel the way they do is a much better course of action.

Sports are supposed to be entertainment and an escape from our daily lives. We watch it and dream about what it would feel like to win a championship, score a big goal, cash a fat cheque, but rarely do we focus on the human element of sports. We have enough stress or concern in our own lives, so in many cases we don’t want to think know about the downfalls of our sporting idols.

With Rypien’s sudden passing, I’m left wondering why he and the hockey world felt inclined to keep his battle a secret. Was he worried he’d be ridiculed? Would it taint his image as a rough and rugged hockey player? It might have, but I think he would have received many more emails and letters of support and courage rather than ridicule.

I’m not blaming anyone, because I’m sure it was an extremely difficult situation. I asked because we have recently seen some other athletes go public about their battles with mental illness.

Joey Votto, the 2010 National League MVP, talked candidly about his battle with depression in this 2009 interview with Richard Griffin.

Here are a few snippets of that article.

I was having panic attacks and they were overwhelming me to the point where I needed to go to the hospital on two separate occasions – once in San Diego and once that nobody had been told about. I went to the hospital in Cincinnati when the team was on the road. It was a very, very scary and crazy night where I had to call 911 at three or four in the morning. It was probably the scariest moment I had ever dealt with in my life.

I really hadn’t acknowledged how important it is to express the things I was dealing with," Votto said. "To have someone to talk to is really important. To be able to talk to someone and say this is what’s going on, that’s been the most important part.

In July, Miami Dolphin receiver, Brandon Marshall, talked openly in an excellent piece by Omar Kelly about his Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

"BPD is a mental illness that studies say is more common than schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, but is rarely diagnosed because of misperceptions in the mental health community, and the challenges of providing a proper treatment plan.

The disorder is marked by difficulties with relationships and self-image and controlling moods and emotions."

Sports fans are humans, and even though the comments in blogs don’t always reflect that, the majority of fans are sensitive and caring. Taking fun shots at players, writers and commenters about their production or opinions is one thing, but usually when we read about real-life hardships most comments are positive and supportive.

I understand the urge to want to find a connection between Rypien’s fighting, possible concussions and his depression, but in this case it seems his battle started well before his NHL fighting days.

And if they do study his brain what happens if the results don’t find that connection? Will the same sports writers or bloggers ask more questions? Will they try to uncover more about the struggles of living with depression, or will they turn to another subject that isn’t as uncomfortable?

Sadly, I think we know the answer.

My sincere condolences to the Rypien family. No father or mother should ever have to bury their 27-year-old son.

If people are looking for a cause to support from this case, it shouldn’t be their feelings about fighting; it should be to debunk the stigma attached to mental illness.

  • smiliegirl15

    Unfortunately you can’t force help on people who don’t want to be helped, even if they need it. All you can do is stand by them and be there for them until the time comes when they do ask for help. Hopefully it’s not too late.

  • smiliegirl15

    @smilegirl15 @DSF

    Rypien had a bunch of friends and colleagues who knew there was a problem. He likely had a private psychiatrist or psychologist, given his salary.

    The idea that people need to accept help or get help is an idea that makes all sorts of mainstream sense (by which I mean sense to people who are not mentally ill). It’s the same idea that makes it socially acceptable to look down on addicts and alcoholics on the streets because obviously, if they wanted to change, they would (Don’t take this as a personal attack — I’m not talking about you specifically. Just the general concept).

    I get that it makes sense when you’re talking about choices. People need to want help building that deck. Mental illness is not a choice, and neither is most addiction. It’s not curable. It’s not like Diabetes or allergies which have simple algorithmic fixes and precautions. It is a day-to-day struggle in many and since it can be strongly associated with external stimuli can become an insurmountable challenge in minutes. From what I know on the subject, people don’t *slowly* decide to pull the trigger. It’s an instinct. A quick action.

    Fact is, we don’t know what was going on in his personal life. Things could have been going great until he got a phone call and the world dropped out underneath his feet. All of the help in the world won’t help with that short of him being on suicide watch 24/7. Depression and deliberate rational thought don’t go together very well. Sure, there are help lines and he undoubtedly had people around, but it’s entirely possible and even likely that those options never even occurred to him. This is not him not wanting help or not accepting help. This is his brain chemistry compelling him to do something and him not wanting to or not being able to compensate and overcome that.

    Chris Malarchuk *understood* Rypien’s depression? Give me a break. Nobody understands severe depression (there is a big difference between being sad, having a minor depressive episode and having severe depression) except for those who struggle with it. Everyone’s triggers will be different and will have variable effects. Something that has a strong emotional attachment to drops on the floor and breaks? Can be complete and utter devastation if you’re feeling ok but ambivalence and resignation if you’re in a deep trough. You never really know.

    So when you talk about help, people needing help, people not wanting help, or people not being willing to accept help, you’re treating this as a choice. As though if only they’d gotten (accepted or sought out) more help, all of this would be fixed. Many end up in the hospital without ever realizing that anything was abnormal. Many end up on the street smoking crack without realizing that they’re self-medicating an affliction they don’t know that they have. If, for you, your mental illness can be treated due to a conscious choice, you’re high-functioning and lucky. And still, with a newly perfect life and CBT and talk therapy, a phone call or a bad day can end your life.

    Like I said, it bugs me when people write about depression because it makes it sound like the person is just sad and need to cheer up or be cheered up. That if they only found the resources that they need, everything would be peachy. Undoubtedly sometimes that’s true. But sometimes nothing is enough. And that’s why mental illness is horrifying. Sometimes you can’t avoid triggers and sometimes those triggers hit you hard enough and fast enough that all the support in the world won’t be enough.

In 1901 Ann Coe, 51, her widowed sister Jane Jackson, 43, nephew Walter, 17, and Violet English, visitor, 13, are listed as a household next to George Coe,

George Coe, 75, farmer and market gardener, born Cherryhinton

Jesse, 28, assistant market gardener, born Cherryhinton

Herbert Matthew, 26, assistant market gardener, born Cherryhinton

Much of the land in this area was once the orchards and fields of Lime Tree Farm. For most of 200 years the farm was run by the Coe family. In the 1960s Mrs Elsie Coe ran a grocery shop here while her husband ran a market garden. (CWN) During the Second World War Mrs Coe opened up her shop as a cafe, offering cups of tea to those drivers who arrived at the transport centre opposite. There is a small modern housing development here called Coe Court. On this 1927 map Coe Farm can be seen just to the west of the Cherry Hinton Hall estate.

In 2017 Patricia Harvey, who used to live at 31 Rock Road, recalled the treat of going to Mrs Coe’s shop on a Sunday during the 1940s:

September 6, 2017

I found building-sized murals all over Reykjavik. This one in particular appealed to me:

more Iceland

August 28, 2017

For half my Iceland trip, I rented a car and got out into the country a bit. So the thing about Iceland that becomes pretty clear after just a few hours of driving around:  It’s entirely volcanic.  In fact, and weirdly, the geology of Iceland is a lot like the geology of Hawaii. It’s just that one is tropical and one is sub-arctic, and it’s so cool seeing how those differences in climate play out. Instead of being covered with lush jungle, the lava fields in Iceland are covered in scrubby moss and birch. (Well, the windward side of the Big Island is scrubby new lava fields, much like Iceland.)  But there are still waterfalls everywhere you look, and basalt cliffs falling into the ocean, and entire mountain ranges that could go off at any moment.

It’s very cool.

At one point I said the immortal words, “Hey, I’m not in a hurry, let’s take the back way!”  I probably shouldn’t have done that, but I’m really glad I did.

Coming around a curve, I looked out the window and saw this:

I think I actually said out loud, “Oh my God a shield volcano.”  Like, an actual classic shield volcano just sitting out there. I pulled over to the side of the road to get a picture, I was so excited. I checked later and learned this is Mt Skjaldbreiður, and it produced the lava fields that make up Þingvellir National Park.

Mt. Snaefells, of Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth fame, is also a shield volcano.

mt snaefells

So. Much. Geology, y’all.

sitrep: the return!

August 18, 2017

Turns out last weekend was a pretty good time to be out of the country.

So, I’m back. I spent a day riding an Icelandic horse, I bought a lot of Icelandic yarn, I experienced a Finnish sauna, I ate a bunch of cod in one country and then a bunch of salmon in another, added maybe a dozen birds to my life list including the Atlantic puffin.  I took the fast ferry between Helsinki and Tallinn, Estonia — so that’s three new countries checked off on one trip! I learned what Finland did during World War II, which it turns out is very complicated. I caught up with a lot of friends, went to the Hugo Losers Party at Steam Helsinki, a steampunk bar. And yes, I lost a Hugo, and had a great time.

Modern communication being what it is and wifi being everywhere, I kept up with the news pretty well, though I might have wished to be a little more cut off.  Strange days indeed, so while I’m still plowing through emails and doing laundry and sorting out the gifts I brought back for people and planning an eclipse viewing roadtrip (yes, I’m gonna do it!), I leave you with this:

Ten Ways To Fight Hate, from the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Worldcon Helsinki!

August 9, 2017

Worldcon Helsinki starts today!

Let’s do this thing! Adventure ho!

Mystic Falls

July 3, 2017

Last week, I went straight from Seattle and the Locus Awards Weekend to West Yellowstone and a family vacation visiting Yellowstone National Park.

I love this place. I absolutely love it. For a week I relaxed and tried to soak in as much of the wild energy as I could.

This was one of my favorite spots that we visited:  Mystic Falls, at the end of a lovely mile-long hike.

mystic falls

I’m just going to soak this up a little more before I get back to work and go through all those emails…

back from vacation!

November 30, 2016

Somehow, some way, the green light at the end of Daisy Buchanan’s pier ended up in a dive bar on the island of Roatan, off the coast of Honduras.

And when I say “dive bar,” I mean “a bar where scuba divers hang out after a day of diving.”  That’s what I was doing all last week, and I had a great time!  I wish I had more pictures to show, but when I wasn’t underwater, I was napping in a hammock.  Now that’s a vacation.  I did 17 dives in about 5 days, and saw turtles, lobsters, shrimp, crabs, squid, seahorses, and lots of coral and fish.  And hummingbirds!  So lovely.

And now the holiday rush/madness has begun.  Except that I have to finish copyedits on Bannerless before I can really focus on anything else.  Meanwhile, I’m just going to keep remembering that hammock…

I am home.  Worldcon was successful.  As usual, sold many books, met many people.  I got to go to George R.R. Martin’s famous Hugo Losers Party, which was quite epic.  Game of Thrones themed alcoholic ice cream shots, y’all.

Realized I have spent the last four Tuesdays driving 10+ hours across the Great Plains, back and forth and back and forth.  I’ll not be doing that again for awhile.

This last trip I read The Starry Rift by James Tiptree Jr., and it was delightful, and made a full yard of two-colored lucet cord.

And now, I’m going to need some sleep.

Faircloth v. Faircloth, 020618 NCCA, COA17-332

Docket Nº:COA17-332
Opinion Judge:BRYANT, Judge.
Party Name:KEELIA M. FAIRCLOTH, Plaintiff, v. SANDY W. FAIRCLOTH, Defendant.
Attorney:Law Office of Cathy R. Stroupe, P.A., by Cathy R. Stroupe, for plaintiff-appellant. No brief was filed on behalf of defendant.
Judge Panel:Judges DAVIS and INMAN concur.
Case Date:February 06, 2018
Court:Court of Appeals of North Carolina

No. COA17-332

Court of Appeals of North Carolina

February 6, 2018

          An unpublished opinion of the North Carolina Court of Appeals does not constitute controlling legal authority. Citation is disfavored, but may be permitted in accordance with the provisions of Rule 30(e)(3) of the North Carolina Rules of Appellate Procedure.

          Heard in the Court of Appeals 19 September 2017.

         Appeal by plaintiff from order entered 27 September 2016 by Judge James A. Grogan in Rockingham County No. 12 CVD 1455 District Court.

          Law Office of Cathy R. Stroupe, P.A., by Cathy R. Stroupe, for plaintiff-appellant.

          No brief was filed on behalf of defendant.

          BRYANT, Judge.

         Where the trial court's unchallenged findings of fact support its conclusion of law that there had not been a substantial change in circumstances affecting the welfare of the minor child, we affirm the trial court order denying plaintiff's motion to modify the prior child custody order.

          Plaintiff Keelia M. Faircloth and defendant Sandy W. Faircloth were married on 16 September 2000 and separated on 3 June 2012. Their marriage produced two children, Cara (born September 2001) and Kevin (born June 2006).[1] Both children were born prematurely and exhibited a number of health issues. From their birth until 2010, the children resided in the marital home. From 2010 until the first child custody hearing, the children resided primarily with plaintiff in the residence of plaintiff's mother, which was next door to the marital home. The child custody hearing was held in Rockingham County District Court before the Honorable James A. Grogan. In an order entered 25 August 2014, Judge Grogan awarded defendant primary custody and plaintiff visitation.2

         The issue of custody was again brought before Judge Grogan. In an order entered on 13 April 2016 nunc pro tunc 25 August 2014 (hereinafter the "13 April 2016 order") the court found that both Cara and Kevin had individualized education plans and that plaintiff had obtained training in special education. However, both children were behind in school and both missed more than twenty days of school in the previous school year (some absences due to medical appointments). In 2010, plaintiff and the children moved into the residence of plaintiff's mother, a two bedroom, one bathroom home. One of the bedrooms was not usable due to clutter. Plaintiff and one child slept in the living room: the child slept on the floor, and plaintiff slept in a recliner. The second child slept in a bedroom with her maternal grandmother. The court found that the residence also housed three dogs, one cat, and at least one bird. "There [was] often feces and urine from these animals on the floor of the home. The home [was] full of clutter and poorly kept." Plaintiff collected disability as did her mother.

         As to defendant, the court found that he would help with the care of the children when he was not working. Defendant accepted a new, better job and moved from Rockingham County to Carteret County in August 2010; plaintiff did not relocate with him. Meanwhile, defendant remarried and at the time of the 2016 court hearing, lived with his wife and four-month-old daughter in a three-bedroom home in Beaufort. Defendant's home was clean and well kept, and both Cara and Kevin had their own room. When they stayed with defendant, both children slept by themselves. Defendant also identified schools the children would attend if they were in his custody. Defendant met with some of the minor children's teachers and helped the children with their homework when they visited him. Defendant also gave the children their medication when they were with him. Defendant arranged a pediatrician for the children in Morehead City and had made appointments for the children with the doctor. Defendant has been through the firefighter academy and is a trained paramedic. The court found that when with defendant, the children did not exhibit behavioral issues to the extent they did when with plaintiff.

The Fashion Institute of Technology attempts to remove financial barriers to college entrance by providing loans, limited scholarships, and part-time employment based on available funding for students with financial need. Students who are in a degree program and require financial aid of any kind must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), designating FIT (code 002866) as a college choice. The FAFSA is the core application for all financial aid programs. Apply online at Foreign students are not eligible for financial aid from FIT.

The Fashion Institute of Technology directly administers its institutional grants and scholarships, which are provided by the FIT Foundation. Federal funding administered by the college for graduate students may include Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford loans, Graduate PLUS loans for students, and the Federal Work Study program.

Financial aid is not automatically renewed. Since most financial aid awards are made for an academic year, students must reapply each academic year by submitting the required forms by the dates established and published by the Office of Financial Aid Services. To be eligible as a full-time student, you must take at least 9 credits of courses that are required for your current degree.

The amount of financial aid awarded depends on funds available to FIT as well as the student’s educational budget and anticipated available resources. Priority for institutionally administered funds is given to students enrolled and designated as full-time. Federal funds at FIT are contingent on congressional authorizations and appropriations. Eligibility requirements and funding regulations governing federal and state programs may change from year to year depending on legislative action.

For more information, visit FIT’s website at

Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Recipients

The Higher Education Amendments require that colleges and universities provide federal financial aid to those students who are in good academic standing and making satisfactory progress in a degree program. The U.S. Department of Education requires that students make satisfactory academic progress (i.e., successfully complete at the least 66 percent of attempted courses) and maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.0. The Satisfactory Academic Progress guidelines for financial aid are available through Financial Aid Services ( Students are responsible for reading and adhering to these guidelines.

Students who do not meet the SAP standards will be issued a warning and placed on financial aid probation. Once in this status, if a student again does not meet the SAP standards, then the student’s status will be changed to financial aid termination. Under this status the student must attend at least one semester without the benefit of federal and institutional aid. The student’s academic record will then be reviewed to regain eligibility. If there were extenuating circumstances that led to the termination, s/he may submit an appeal that will be reviewed by the Financial Aid Committee. The student will then be advised, in writing, of the committee’s decision. Should the appeal be approved, the student will regain eligibility for one semester and be placed on financial aid probation. The student will be required to agree to an academic plan as well as complete select financial literacy courses online. Should the appeal be denied, to be reinstated, the student must at their own expense successfully complete enough credits based on their classification as a full-time or part-time student, with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher to bring the quantitative and /or qualitative standards back to satisfactory levels. The student can then petition in writing to the SAP Appeal Committee requesting reinstatement of financial aid eligibility.

Financial Aid Refund Policy

Financial aid recipients who withdraw partially or fully must have their financial aid reviewed. If a student withdraws fully during the first 60 percent of the enrollment period and has any form of federal aid disbursed, the amount of the refund will be based upon a distribution formula as required by federal regulations. The refund distribution, prescribed by law and regulation, is in the following order: Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan, Federal Graduate PLUS Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, other Title IV aid programs, and other federal sources of aid. Additional information on these refunds and repayment policies may be obtained from Financial Aid Services.

Small Success Thursday School's Out!

Small Success Thursday

No more teachers, no more books…well, no more assigned books.

We’re finally done and I’m fairly certain I’m even more happy than my children. The van can take a break, we get to play together, and the need to nag about homework becomes a memory for 8 weeks. (Please don’t ruin my moment of joy by reminding me of summer projects and the math book).

The freedom of knowing the school year had ended, coupled with finishing a Novena to the Holy Spirit, prompted me to volunteer for a major event. Last night, I took on organizing the 90th anniversary of our children’s school. Somehow, having that task to anticipate, felt liberating and energizing.

This has been a great week for our family. Two graduated from their respective schools. Two signed up for driver’s education. I got to spend time with my mom and my five year old son has begun potty training, something he keeps trying and then stopping, but every time he tries again, I feel hopeful, he’ll get it.

Lastly, I have to count some blessings we seem to take for granted, to say “Thank you” for the gift of my husband’s work, which has allowed us for so many years to say “Yes.” to Catholic schools, and made following Catholic teaching a luminous cross of our life.

Man shot and killed after attacking Belgian police officers with machete

This is an archived article and the information in the article may be outdated. Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated.

Police stand as they secure the area around a police building in the southern Belgian city of Charleroi following a machete attack on August 6, 2016. Two policewomen were wounded in Charleroi by a machete-wielding man who shouted "Allahu akbar" (God is the greatest), local police said. The attacker was shot and injured, they said on Twitter. / AFP / BELGA / VIRGINIE LEFOUR / Belgium OUT (Photo credit should read VIRGINIE LEFOUR/AFP/Getty Images)

A machete-wielding man shouting “Allahu Akbar” was shot and killed after wounding two police officers Saturday in the Belgian city of Charleroi, police said via Twitter.

The assault occurred outside a police station in the center of Charleroi, which is about 30 miles south of Brussels.

The armed man penetrated a secure zone and wounded the officers, who suffered deep cuts around their faces, according to Radio Télévision Belge Francophone (RTBF). One officer was transported to a hospital, the other was less seriously wounded.

The attacker was shot by a third officer on the scene and died later at a hospital, according to RTBF.

Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel, on Twitter, said he was closely monitoring the situation: “I condemn strongly the attack in Charleroi. My thoughts are with the victims, their relatives and police officers.”

A security perimeter was set up around boulevard Pierre Mayence.

The Belgian capital has been on high alert after terror attacks killed 31 people in March. Two bombs exploded at the Brussels Airport, and a third went off at a metro station.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the bombings, which also wounded 300 people.
