CBP Reminds Private Boaters Arriving to the U.S. in PA, Southern NJ or Delaware of Federal Reporting Requirements
Reporting into the United States just got easier with ROAM app
PHILADELPHIA – Temperatures are rising with summer quickly approaching and with that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) anticipates rising numbers of private vessels arriving to Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware from Canada, Bermuda and the Caribbean. CBP reminds vessel masters of federal reporting requirements and introduces a new and easier way to report their arrivals.
Federal law (19 CFR 4.2) requires the master or person in charge of a vessel, such as a pleasure boat or yacht, regardless of size or country of registration, to report their U.S. arrival immediately to the nearest CBP facility (see 19 U.S.C. 1433).
"The United States is a welcoming nation, and Customs and Border Protection is the nation's border security agency charged with managing and securing our borders," said Casey Durst, CBP's Director of Field Operations in Baltimore. "CBP's enforcement of pleasure boat reporting regulations balances our interests in welcoming vessels arriving from foreign ports with ensuring the safety and security of our nation, our citizens and our economy."
CBP's Area Port of Philadelphia, to include the Port of Wilmington, Delaware, has posted updated pleasure boat reporting directions on CBP's website.
Pleasure boat operators arriving within the jurisdictions covered by the Area Port of Philadelphia should report their arrival to (215) 596-1975 from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or call 1-800-973-2867 after hours.
Pleasure boat operators arriving within the jurisdictions covered by the Port of Wilmington should report their arrival to (302) 326-0600 ext. 119 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, or call 1-800-973-2867 after hours. This applies to Delaware City Marina, Lewes Public Dock, and Summit North Marina.
A CBP officer will advise where the master and boat's passengers should present themselves for CBP inspection.
Boat operators may also report their arrival in person between 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. at CBP's office located at 8506 Essington Avenue, Building C2, 2nd Floor, Essington, PA 19153.
No other person, baggage or merchandise may be offloaded from the vessel until permitted by a CBP officer. Failure to report international arrivals may result in civil penalties to include a $5,000 penalty for a first violation and $10,000 for each subsequent violation with the conveyance subject to seizure and forfeiture.
"CBP is excited to offer a new and easier option for vessel operators to report their arrivals, and right from their smartphones through CBP's ROAM app," Durst said. "The ROAM app is one way in which CBP is leveraging technology to streamline federal reporting requirements."
CBP launched the Reporting Offsite Arrival – Mobile (ROAM) app, a free app that provides an option for pleasure boaters to satisfy federal reporting requirements by reporting their U.S. entry to CBP on their personal smart device. Download the app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. In certain locations, the CBP ROAM app can also be accessed on tablets at partner locations.
To use the CBP ROAM app, travelers input their biographic, conveyance, and trip details and submit their trip for CBP officer review. The CBP officer may then initiate a video chat to further interview the travelers. Once the CBP officer reviews the trip, travelers will receive a push notification and an email with their admissibility decision and next steps.

For more information on reporting requirements, please visit CBP's Pleasure Boats and Private Flyers reporting webpage.
Almost a million times each day, CBP officers welcome international travelers into the U.S. In screening both foreign visitors and returning U.S. citizens, CBP uses a variety of techniques to intercept narcotics, unreported currency, weapons, prohibited agriculture, and other illicit products, and to assure that global tourism remains safe and strong. For international travel tips, please visit CBP's Travel webpage.
CBP's border security mission is led at ports of entry by CBP officers from the Office of Field Operations, who enforce all applicable U.S. laws, including against illegal immigration, narcotics smuggling and illegal importation, and by CBP agriculture specialists, who protect U.S. agriculture from the introduction of pests or disease from overseas sources.
Please visit CBP Ports of Entry to learn more about how CBP's Office of Field Operations secures our nation's borders.
Learn more about "A Typical Day" for CBP in 2018, or by visiting www.CBP.gov.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between official ports of entry. CBP is charged with securing the borders of the United States while enforcing hundreds of laws and facilitating lawful trade and travel.

Whether in practice or in the game, athletes put their bodies through great stress. Some sports demand more from the body than others. However, every sport has an element of inorganic movement or unnatural motion. For example, in softball, a pitcher winds up and flings her body with an incredible amount of dexterity in order to get the most ideal velocity out of her pitches. This motion, incredibly taxing on the body, can cause serious injury.
One of the most common issues of athletic injuries happens in the feet. If it's a damaging fracture that leaves the athlete sidelined or just a simple turf toe, foot injuries can still be very frustrating and painful. Regardless of the sport, athletes still require use of their feet in some fashion. This is why foot therapy is extremely vital for getting athletes back on the right track to return to the field.
No matter the injury, the best way to speed up the recovery period is to receive physical therapy. Physical therapy has proven to work for millions of people. Professional physical therapists are specifically trained to help people return to proper form from any injury.
During physical therapy, you will go through organized training in order to get back into form. Sometimes training can be quite difficult, especially in the beginning when there is more pain and the foot feels awkward. To alleviate this, you will do basic twisting and stretching exercises in order to get flexibility and foot mobility back up. The therapist will also massage the injured area to activate and relax muscles. Over time you will eventually move up to strengthening exercises, designed specifically so that the injured area is exercised.
Foot therapy for sports is a modern science miracle. Unlike other treatments that may employ the use of fancy chemicals and terminology, physical therapy is an evidence-based practice that offers the same benefits. Due to huge advancements in the knowledge of muscles and joints, doctors can turn catastrophic injuries around so that athletes can return to the game once more.
The Achilles tendon is the strongest tendon in the human body. Its purpose is to connect the lower leg muscles and calf to the heel of the foot. This tendon is responsible for facilitating all types of movement, like walking and running. This tendon provides an enormous amount of mobility for the body. Any injuries inflicted to this tissue should be immediately brought up with a physician to prevent further damage.
The most common injuries that can trouble the Achilles tendon are tendon ruptures and Achilles tendinitis. Achilles tendinitis is the milder of the two injuries. It can be recognized by the following symptoms: inflammation, dull to severe pain, an increased flow of blood to the tendon, thickening of the tendon, and slower movement time. Tendinitis can be treated via several methods and is often diagnosed by an MRI.
An Achilles tendon rupture is trickier to heal, and is by far the most painful injury. It is caused by the tendon ripping or completely snapping. The results are immediate and absolutely devastating, and will render the patient immobile. If a rupture or tear occurs, operative and non-operative methods are available. Once the treatment begins, depending on the severity of the injury, recovery time for these types of issues can take up to a year.
Simple preventative measures can be taken as a means to avoid both injuries. Prior to any movement, taking a few minutes to stretch out the tendon is a great way to stimulate the tissue. Calf raises, squats, leg curls, leg extensions, leg raises, lunges, and leg presses are all suggested ways to help strengthen the lower legs and promote Achilles tendon health.
Many problems arise among athletes and people who overexert themselves while exercising. Problems can also happen among those who do not properly warm up before beginning an activity. Proper, comfortable shoes that fit correctly can also decrease tendon injuries. Some professionals also suggest that when exercising, you should make sure that the floor you are on is cushioned or has a mat. This will relieve pressure on the heels. A healthy diet will also increase tendon health.
It is very important to seek out a podiatrist if you believe you have an injury in the Achilles region. Further damage could result in severe complications that would make being mobile difficult, if not impossible.
Heel spurs are calcium deposits that cause bone protrusions on the heel bone. Heel spurs are usually associated with plantar fasciitis, which occurs when the plantar fasciitis in the foot becomes inflamed. Typically, heel spurs don't cause any symptoms. However, they can produce chronic or intermittent heel pain. Those who have had the condition often describe the irritation as a stabbing pain.
There are risk factors that may make you more likely to develop heel spurs. People who have abnormal walking gaits, run and jog on hard surfaces, are obese, or wear poorly fitting shoes are more likely to develop heel spurs.
Fortunately, there are precautions you can take to avoid developing heel spurs. One of the best ways to do this is by wearing well-fitting shoes with shock-absorbent soles. Another preventative technique is to choose running shoes if you plan on running, and walking shoes if you plan on walking. Shoes are made for different activities and it is important to research a shoe before you purchase a pair.
The pain associated with heel spurs often decreases the more you walk. However, a recurrence of pain after an extended period of rest or walking is likely to occur with this condition. Those with severe heel spur pain may opt to go the surgical route for treatment. However, more than 90% of those with the condition get better without surgical treatment. If you have a heel spur and want to know if surgery is right for you, you should go to your podiatrist and he or she will be able to conduct a pre-surgical test or exam to determine if you are an optimal candidate for surgery.
When it comes to maintaining foot health, wearing properly-fitting shoes is important. While wearing the appropriate pair of shoes may seem like a trivial concern, the reality is that improperly fitted shoes cause an astounding amount of injuries to the feet. The overall structure and the biomechanics of our bodies are directly affected by our posture, gait, and feet. Because of this, pain and discomfort felt throughout the body are often related to a problem in the feet. And, most foot problems usually stem from improper footwear.
Shoes should not be purchased with the expectation that they will easily stretch and contort to the size and shape of your feet. When shopping for footwear, look for shoes that fit correctly and comfortably as soon as you put them on. Do not purchase shoes that are too large or that slip in the heel area when you walk. Do not choose shoes that are loose with the intention of wearing thicker socks to compensate for the space. The widest portion of the shoe, the ball of the foot, must be made sure to fit comfortably in the shoe.
Keeping all of these suggestions in mind may be difficult when shopping and when trying to select from a wide array of different shoes. Nonetheless, your time and money will be wasted if you purchase a pair of shoes that are too uncomfortable for you to actually wear them. After finally selecting and purchasing a pair of shoes, try them on at home. To truly ensure whether or not your shoes fit comfortably with normal activity, walk around on a carpeted surface to determine how they feel on your feet.
The possibility of damaging your feet's 33 joints, 26 bones, and 100+ ligaments is much higher than many people suspect. Finding an appropriate and properly-fitted pair of shoes is perhaps the single most important action you can take to maintain excellent foot health and help prevent injury. The fact that our feet continue to change with age is one that many people often forget. Even if our feet no longer change in size when we mature, our feet will still change in shape.
If you already have pre-existing foot problems, there is a greater possibility that wearing improperly-fitted shoes will worsen those problems. The good news, however, is that appropriate footwear is not difficult to find. While shopping for shoes, remember that improper footwear can detrimentally affect the feet, the entire body and its biomechanical structure as well. The shoes you wear can greatly impact your legs, back, and entire body, as your posture and gait are related to your feet. Finding and selecting the best properly-fitted shoes is necessary in achieving optimal health.
In most cases, foot surgery is often chosen as the last available option for conditions that have otherwise been unsuccessfully treated. Surgery may be necessary for several reasons, including the removal of foot deformities (e.g. bone spurs or bunions), arthritis problems, reconstruction due to injury, and congenital malformations (e.g. club foot or flat feet). Regardless of one's age, foot surgery may be the only successful option for treatment for certain conditions.
The type of surgery one undergoes depends on the type of foot condition the patient has. For the removal of a bunion growth, a bunionectomy is necessary. If the bones in the feet need to be realigned or fused together, a surgical fusion of the foot is needed. For pain or nerve issues, a patient may require surgery in which the tissues surrounding the painful nerve are removed. Initially, less invasive treatments are generally attempted; surgery is often the last measure taken if other treatments are unsuccessful.
While in many cases surgery is often deemed as the final resort, choosing surgery comes with certain benefits. The associated pain experienced in relation to the particular condition is often relieved with surgery, allowing patients to quickly resume daily activities. The greatest benefit, however, is that surgery generally eliminates the problem immediately.
Podiatry history has shown that foot treatments continue to evolve over time. In the field of foot surgery, endoscopic surgery is just one of the many advanced forms of surgery. As technology vastly improves so too will the various techniques in foot surgery, which already require smaller and smaller incisions with the use of better and more efficient tools. Thanks to such innovations, surgery is no longer as invasive as it was in the past, allowing for faster and easier recoveries.

The Wildrose Party in Alberta has nothing on Toronto (in the bigotry department) as long as Rob Ford, aka Mayor Fraud stays in office.
If there were any fiscal conservatives or red Tories who still believed Ford's refusal to participate in Pride events was anything other than a disgusting and arrogant display of bigotry, perhaps this announcement, two months ahead of time, without even checking his schedule, will finally prove it. Pride starts on June 22nd with a flag raising at Toronto City Hall. Somehow I don't think even fat Ford's well-publicized diet will inspire him to take the stairs up one flight in order to participate in that. His family cottage getaway that doesn't start until June 30th will no doubt prevent him. He's scared of gays, you see, and he's happy to send the message to the public that it's okay to disrespect us. He attends other big annual festivals, including the Caribbean festival in August. But when it comes to our 10-day festival, his family trip on the last day of the festival means he can't make any of it. Only idiot homophobes and Ford Nation buy that.
The mayor of Toronto has an obligation to respect and acknowledge all communities in his city and Pride is the LGBT community's biggest annual festival. He is insulting us by snubbing us in 2012, as he did in 2011, as he did prior to becoming mayor when he said AIDS prevention programs deserve zero funding because the only people who get AIDS are gays and drug dealers.
George Smitherman, the man most responsible for Ford's election, I hope you're happy. Ugh.

If you're looking to understand your site's visitors and target market better, it's always a good idea to look at as much data as possible.
Google Analytics provides website owners with the ability to view information about visitor volume, visitor location, e-commerce data, and more.
While you can add Google Analytics to WordPress without a plugin, I don't recommend that you do so. Not only does it require experience with coding, but it also means that your Google Analytics code will be deleted anytime you update or change your theme.
So, let's have a look at the most convenient method of getting everything done.
Here is how to install Google Analytics on WordPress:
- Step 1: Sign up to Google Analytics
- Step 2: Enter the account information
- Step 3: Download and activate the MonsterInsights plugin
- Step 4: Select website category
- Step 5: Connect to MonsterInsights
- Step 6: Select your profile type and proceed
- Step 7: Choose your settings
Step 1: Sign Up to Google Analytics
First, you're gonna need to log in to your Google account or create a new one. You can do this by selecting 'Sign In' on the top right-hand corner of your Google homepage. Once you're prompted to sign in, click on 'Create Account' on the bottom left-hand side of the page.
After you've created your Google account, it's time to create your personal Google Analytics profile. Head to www.analytics.google.com and click 'Sign Up' on the right-hand side of the page.
Step 2: Enter the Account Information
Next, you'll be prompted to enter your desired account information into the fields on the sign-up page.
Here, you'll need to enter some information - account name, website name, and the URL of the website that you want Google Analytics to track.
Once you're done entering this information, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click 'Get Tracking ID.'
You'll also be prompted to approve the 'Terms and Conditions' once you request the tracking ID.
After you accept these conditions, you'll be redirected to a homepage that displays your tracking number.
Step 3: Download and Activate the 'MonsterInsights' Plugin
Now that you have a Google Analytics tracking ID, it's time to head to your WordPress homepage and begin the process of installing the right plugin. Start by scrolling your mouse over the 'Plugins' tab on the main left-hand side dashboard. Once the sub-menu appears, click 'Add New' to redirect yourself to the WordPress plugin database.
In the top right-hand side of the search page, you'll see a search bar that you can use to find plugins in the database. Search for 'MonsterInsights.'
Once 'MonsterInsights' appears below the search bar, click 'Install' to begin the installation process.
After a few seconds, the plugin will finish installing and an 'Activate' button will replace the 'Install' button. Click 'Activate' to complete the plugin's activation.
Disclaimer: If you want to use the MonsterInsights plugin for WordPress, it's essential you choose the plugin displayed in the image below.
A bunch of unrelated plugins will likely appear when you enter your search in the search bar.
Step 4: Select Website Category
After you activate the plugin, the MonsterInsights setup wizard will automatically load.
Unlike most plugins, MonsterInsights automatically prompts you to set up its platform. First, you'll need to select your type of website: business website, publisher (blog), or eCommerce. Click 'Save and Continue' once you make your choice.
Step 5: Connect to MonsterInsights
MonsterInsights will then provide you with a list of the permissions it needs to function as a plugin. Click 'Allow' to proceed.
Next, you'll be prompted to connect MonsterInsights to your website. Click 'Connect MonsterInsights.'
Step 6: Select Your Profile Type and Proceed
Next, select the type of profile type you want from the dropdown menu and click 'Complete Connection.'
Step 7: Choose Your Settings
After this, you'll find yourself at a long list of settings. You can customize these to have your plugin track different types of data. Go through each option individually and determine how you want Google Analytics to function on your page. At the bottom, click 'Save and continue' to proceed.
You'll need to click through two more pages to get to the final component of the sign-up process. These steps are trying to sell upgrades or add-ons that can improve the functionality of your plugin.
If you don't want to upgrade your plugin at the time, skip these steps. On the last page, click 'Finish Setup & Exit Wizard.'
All done!
Additional Steps: Viewing Your Data on Google Analytics
Now that you know how to install Google Analytics on WordPress, it's time to view your data. While you can always use MonsterInsights to access your data for your WordPress site, you're also able to find your information on your Google Analytics account. Let's take a look at how to access your data directly through Google.
Keep in mind, you can access this data regardless of how you've installed Google Analytics on your site.
1. Head to Google Analytics
Start the process by heading to www.analytics.google.com and signing into your Google account. If you're already signed in, you'll automatically enter your profile page.
2. Control Your Data From the Side-Menu
On the left-hand side of your homepage, you'll be able to access a wide variety of different Google Analytics features. You can customize your settings by clicking the 'Customization' button. You can also access reports on a wide range of different topics, including your audience, acquisition, behavior, conversions, and more.
Your homepage also has information about users, bounce rate, and more. Keep in mind, it often takes around 24 hours for data to enter the Google Analytics system. It won't show up immediately.
You can also access information through the MonsterInsights portal on WordPress if you do decide to use my "how to install Google Analytics on WordPress" tutorial.
Installing Google Analytics on WordPress: A Simple Procedure

How Will Balinese Kittens British Columbia Be In The Future | Balinese Kittens British Columbia
Balinese Kittens British Columbia
– Being around since the 1920s, the Balinese wolves are a version of the Siamese species of cat. They are a oriental breed of kitten and have been seen from the Americas. Having been consumed with murderous kind, some of those litters using a more baldness have since evolved to the Balinese breed by means of a set of genetic mutations.
Alive Balinese Kittens British Columbia
The duration of the fur is a fantastic way to tell the difference between a Balinese breed and Siamese one because Balinese cats has longer fur that's in one layer, and not in a double coating like most other cats do. This double layer makes the other cats' coat seem rougher, like a washboard. This long fur doesn't interfere with all the grooming of the cat, fortunately, because it isn't extremely long.
The glowing blue eyes of this purebred version of Balinese felines will make you fall in love at first sight due to their sheer brilliance and beauty. Their ears, tail and feet would normally appear as dark spots in their furry bodies. The Lilac Point Balinese kitty has silver-blue spots just as some other versions of this Balinese will have varying color combinations. Balinese Kittens British Columbia
The Balinese kittens have the enviable reputation of being the very intelligent creatures amongst the variations from the Siamese breed and are usually seen to be hushed. People that are fond of peaceful moments in their homes should seem to adopt this cat breed due to the silent demeanor. Unless something serious is bothering them, they are usually a silent kind of cat. And even should they opt to start their mouths and complete a couple of meows, the sound is much milder than other cat breeds. They may be expected to live anywhere from 18 to 21 years in a human life span. This is very high for cats which, generally speaking, live for an average of ten to twenty decades.

Upcoming Kindergartners, take a virtual tour
Greetings Starfish Families,
Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year and to Supply Elementary, home of the Starfish! I am pleased to continue serving as the principal and to be a part of the Supply family where we strive to educate the hearts and minds of our students through PBIS (Positive Behavior and Support) and excellent instruction by our highly qualified staff in academics as well as the arts. We keep children first in all that we do and we believe that every child can be successful every day. We work as a team with students, parents/guardians, and staff because we understand that no ONE person has all of the answers. We are all family here at Supply and that is evident from the moment you pull into the parking lot. Friendly faces greet every student in the car rider line or bus parking lot to wish them a great day or safe travels home. We have a strong core PTA who have provided supplies and resources to support our teachers and students. We are always looking for parents and community members to be a part of this organization.
Our beliefs and values center around three important principles: relationships, relevance and rigor. We understand the importance of building relationships with our children because we realize that students "don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care." We also realize that students need to practice building relationships with others, so we have a Social Skills program called Sanford Harmony and begin our day with a Morning Meeting in each classroom.
We strive to make the instruction relevant to students by creating lessons that are meaningful and engaging, as well as creating rigorous lessons that require critical thinking and problem solving so that our students are prepared to face the challenges in their future careers. Each classroom is dressed in the very latest technology including a Smartboard, iPads, and Chromebooks just to name a few. We are extremely fortunate in Brunswick County and are pleased to announce that we are 99% 1:1 with devices for students, which means that we have almost one iPad or Chromebook for every single child. Our goal is to prepare our students with a strong academic foundation that will support them throughout their life in school and beyond and our staff is committed to giving the very best instruction to all of our students. I am truly blessed to work with a staff that goes above and beyond to help students be successful.
Come and visit Supply Elementary, where everyone's a "Star"!

How gay is Australia?
2017-05-04T04:44:27Z (GMT) by
How many same sex couples are there in Australia? Recent press reports deriving from a study of Australia's regions indicated that the proportion of such couples to all couples was higher in Melbourne than Sydney and higher in both these cities than in San Francisco. The reverse is actually the case. The reasons for the confusion and the relevance of same-sex couples for regional planning are explored in this article. Copyright.

Organic Island Deodorant, 2.5 oz Probiotic Deodorant Stick, Natural, Aluminum-free, Unscented, Vegan (Single Stick)
1 Stick Deodorant 2.5 ounces of handcrafted probiotic deodorant in a white polypropylene plastic (BPA-free) twist up deodorant container.
Organic Deodorant that Actually Works!
Aluminum-free baking soda and organic corn starch combine to fight odor. Coconut oil and jojoba oil nourish your skin, so you can keep odor away while treating your armpits with care! Island Deodorant® is made from completely natural and organic ingredients, so you can use it as often as needed without worrying about toxins!
Most people only need to use one or two thin swipes for up to 24 hour protection (some of our users report no odor for as long as 48 hours!) so a stick of probiotic deodorant will last most people at least 2-3 months, or longer! If it doesn't work for you, or if you ever experience a reaction to it, just contact me for a refund.
Completely Natural
Ingredients: Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Corn Starch, Baking Soda (naturally aluminum-free), Wild Crafted Candelilla Wax, Organic Jojoba Oil, Shelf Stable Vegan Probiotics.
Amazing deodorant and amazing customer service are my passions!
If you have any questions or concerns or are not satisfied please contact me via Amazon or my website and I will be happy to help you.
Helpful Tips
-The coconut oil has a low melting point, so deodorants will soften in warm temperatures and harden in cooler temperatures, this is normal. If it seems mushy upon application try keeping it somewhere cooler, if it seems sticky upon application hold it against your skin for a few moments to warm it up and consider keeping it somewhere a little warmer.
-If you are switching from conventional antiperspirant, please know that your armpits are likely to detox when you make the switch to natural deodorant. This detox process is different for everyone, but understand that you might experience extreme stinky-ness or staining while you transition to aluminum-free deodorant.

Catenary Issues Update
Catenary Issues Update
By Roger Heid
Some time ago, I published a blog dealing with overhead catenaries. This blog is meant to be a follow up and update to the previous dissertation.
Since then, there were quite a few questions and some confusion regarding overhead catenary issues. One of the main concerns seems to be the question if overhead catenaries can be or should be powered in a digital environment.
It can be done, even though the majority of modelers advise against it. It is said that the connection between the pantograph and the catenary wires is not as reliable as picking up the power from the tracks. This depends on the quality of the catenary material used and on the tightness of the connections at the masts. Of course, it also depends on your craftsmanship.
Some catenaries tend to corrode or they are just too sloppy, in so many words. The configuration of the individual pantographs also comes into play. To make a powered overhead catenary system work reliably can take a lot of patience and some troubleshooting when things go awry. It can be quite tedious, indeed.
During the analog days, it was nice to be able to run two locomotives simultaneously on the same contiguous track. One would be a steamer or a diesel, the other one would be an electric locomotive getting the power from the catenaries. It was necessary to employ a second power transformer. Nowadays, on a digital layout, all this is not needed anymore. The catenary system can be used just for show only, thus making the set-up and the wiring much simpler.
Ernest has written a Blog about 'Electrification and Modeling'. You should refer to this blog. In it he explains the ways the pantographs are used in the real world. There is more to it than what you initially thought or knew about this subject.
Currently, there is a model railroad industry trend whereby the pantographs on an Electric Locomotive are no longer wired to pick up electricity from overhead catenaries. This obviously follows the trend among model railroaders who have either gone digital or started out that way to begin with.
In addition, some of the newer electric locomotives allow you to raise and lower the individual pantographs via digital remote control, thus emulating real world operation. See Ernest's blog.
ESU Models E 94 (left) and BR 151 (right). Both features remote pantograph raising and lowering.
He also explains that under certain conditions both pantographs are lowered on purpose. One situation would be if cars need to be coupled or uncoupled. The shift yard workers take a quick look at the pantographs. If they are down they know it is now safe to go about their business without the danger of being electrocuted.
Under certain other conditions, an electric locomotive may just coast for a stretch with both pantographs in the down position. Now imagine you have your catenaries powered. As soon as both catenaries are lowered you will lose control over the loco as it no longer receives the digital signal. It will just sit there, doing nothing until you manually raise at least one pantograph. This seems to defeat the purpose of the feature, don't you think?
No, you will NOT supply the power to both, the track and the catenary system. Doing so can open a can of worms you would much rather keep closed. You could inadvertently apply double the voltage to the system which is something your decoders will not appreciate, at all, to say the least. Don't try it. Theoretically, it can be done, but the complications do not justify the purpose.
Now that you have read all this you should be able to come to your own conclusions and make your own choice.
Please, do not post questions in the Blog System. Go to the Forum under the 'Technical Corner' topic. Thank you.
Happy Railroading!
One Response to Catenary Issues Update
Right at the present time there are locos with more than one pantograph so that they can operate across different systems and voltages. How do they do this you may ask? They have battery backup to power the operating system and the correct pantograph to match the geographic location (GPS)

Boys track and field athlete of the year: Hobson's mentality soars by leaps and bounds
DeKALB – A younger Jaylen Hobson did not envision the heights, or even the literal lengths, he would achieve as a track and field athlete.
"If you would have told me my freshman or even sophomore year when I was injured that I'd someday place at state for anything, I would have told you that'd not be possible," Hobson said. "But ... I really tapped into my athletic ability and saw what I can really do."
Hobson came home with a sixth-place finish in the long jump this year at the Class 3A state meet at Eastern Illinois University's O'Brien Field in Charleston after a career-best leap of 23 feet, 0.75 inches and ran in both the 4x100-meter and 4x200 relays.

You can never tell a book by its cover. You can't just read the inside cover or the final page to know the real story, and that's also the case when you meet someone and hear their story. Everyone has a story to tell. Some people tell it through the written word, some people say it by word of mouth and some people tell it through film. Stefani Twyford is a memory maker by telling other peoples stories through film. Some of these people are everyday people that want to preserve their memories for the next generations to come, and some are change makers who wish to preserve their accomplishments for the future and not to be forgotten. But, Stefani is more than that, she is a Renaissance woman and, like many women, has lived many different lives, reinvented herself and is fascinating.
Stefani Twyford – Renaissance Woman
Stefani Twyford grew up in California, but wasn't your typical California girl, and didn't have your typical California upbringing. Her parents were bohemian and artistic and open, and they didn't manage her life, in fact, Stefani was independent and invented her life as she went along. In High School, her parents sent her to the National Outdoor Leadership School in Wyoming, where she thrived being in the mountains and realized that is where she wanted to stay. Stefani went on to the University of Wyoming, where she studied social work and psychology.
After spending a few years in Wyoming after graduation, Stefani moved back to Los Angeles and worked for a punk rock fashion designer for a while before moving to San Francisco to get a degree in fashion design. After two years, Stefani's husband was transferred to Alaska, so she packed herself up and moved to the land of light and dark for eight years and had children. While living there, they would spend one week every February in Hawaii, so they could get into the light and out of the dark.
Stefani Twyford's happiest years were the four years after Alaska when she and her husband and kids moved to Scotland. They lived in a small town called Aberdeen, where Stefani took an interest in antiques. She started to learn all she could and became friends with the old men who were antique dealers or furniture refinishers. Stefani built a business where she brokered antiques in Scotland and taught classes and took Americans shopping when they came to visit. She also would have clock parties at her home. The men she was friends with would bring all the clocks they had and would send invitations and sell the clocks. She had these quarterly.
For Stefani, Scotland was an enchanting time and selling antiques was a labor of love. Her goal when they moved to Houston was to be an antique broker or dealer, but it never came to fruition. So, in 1993, after moving back, she spent three days and nights on the Internet, and it blew her mind how much had changed, and she started to learn and teach herself how to design and build websites. The first few she did for free, and before she knew it, she was being asked to design and build websites for money. Stefani had reinvented herself again.
It was about 2000 when Stefani became involved with the group the Webgrrls. This was a group of women web designers and coders, and Stefani co-ran the Houston Chapter. This was when she got out the design side and into the sales side of the business, and DigitalEve was born. DigitalEve was all about networking, teaching and mentoring digital technology for women. While Stefani was running DigitalEve, she became friends with Isabelle MacCrimmon, and they envisioned a way to archive history from cardboard to digital, and that was when Legacy Multimedia came about.
Stefani Twyford – Memory Maker
Stefani was always a memory maker, with all the memories she has made during her Renaissance period, but it when Legacy Multimedia was first launched that she truly became a memory maker. Legacy Multimedia is all about taking personal histories and preserving those memories on film. And, Stefani does it all. She writes, directs, produces and edits and the final product is a high-quality tribute video, family or personal biography, or corporate video presentation. The bottom line for Stefani is always that she always works to make the client feel good and feel appreciated, and it shows in all her work.
In fact, Stefani is so good as a memory maker, she has won several awards, including Videographer Awards, International Special Events Society's Crystal Icon Awards, Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals' MarCom and Hermes Creative Awards. But, the award she is most proud of is the award she won for the documentary she shot about her father that won Best Short Documentary in 2015 at the World Fest International.
I can't imagine doing anything else. This is a very intimate process. I become a part of the family because it is such an intimate experience and I almost grieve when a project ends. It's so important the people aren't forgotten, and their stories don't dry up, and this process substantiates their stories after they are gone."
Stefani Twyford is more than just a memory maker and a renaissance woman, she is remarkable, funny, charming and kind and if you want to preserve your story, we highly suggest you give Legacy Multimedia a call.

So once you have your Animatic the next step is to record your dialogue.
Generally you will always record the characters' dialogue first before starting any character animation. The way people talk and the speed they deliver their words is very closely linked to the emotions contained in them. The last thing you want to do is inhibit your actors by making them stick to timings that don't fit with what they are saying. You will always get better results if you allow them to deliver the lines as they feel best and then animate your characters to those timings. Rather than animate your characters first and then try to sync up the dialogue after. It will give your animation natural timing, pace and structure, which will be much easier to work with.
Even though my Foxes film has very little dialogue in it, I still wanted to get the final voice recording locked down. There are a number of grunts and laughs that need to be well placed and the animation will need to follow these. It's very important to lock your dialogue down before you start animating as any lines that change later on will have to be re-animated.
So with the dialogue in place for timings and the layouts for the backgrounds, it is a matter of going in and starting to animate each shot fully. The 2nd Pass Animatic is all about developing the animation. There will be many iterations of this stage as more and more is added. It's the main part of production and clearly takes the most time. I have been working on this film on and off for the past few months, slowly adding in shot by shot when I've had a break in work.
However, I decided to share this version as it shows almost all of the final character animation in place. The parts still left to do are clearly still visible as storyboard cut outs. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I still need to develop the final backgrounds by adding in more detail. As well as this, I plan to animate a few of the 3D elements such as the dustbin falling over. The final thing will be to 'dress the sets' by adding in extra elements such plants, garden furniture and discarded drinks cans. These will make the environment feel more real and lived in.
Hopefully the next time I post I will have a finished film to show you!

How to Achieve Converged Application & Infrastructure Monitoring – On-Demand Webinar
Troubleshooting slow application problems is one of the toughest challenges that IT organizations face in today's web-based, cloud-driven and dynamic environments. Given the distributed and inter-dependent nature of application frameworks, tracking just the application up/down status and basic CPU and memory utilization metrics is not sufficient anymore. IT administrators need visibility of the real user experience, code-level insights into transaction processing and real-time analysis of the health of the supporting infrastructure.
Historically, IT organizations have been using different tools for monitoring the application and infrastructure tiers. Lack of integration, need for manual analysis, and expert-intensive troubleshooting have been some of the drawbacks of such a multi-tool strategy.
View this On-Demand webinar that discusses how converged application and infrastructure performance monitoring can be achieved to:
- Provide a one-stop solution for unified and integrated performance visibility of the application and infrastructure tiers
- Proactively detect user experience issues before online business is impacted
- Trace business transactions and isolate the exact cause of application slowness
- Get code-level visibility to identify inefficient application code and slow database queries
- Automatically map application dependencies within the infrastructure to pinpoint the root cause of the problem

In addition to funding, these social innovators gain access to resources provided by the Tamer Center, such as connections to pro bono consulting teams, subsidized co-working space, and support from its advisory network.
The newest additions to the Tamer Fund for Social Ventures portfolio are:
- DeansList Software, cofounded by Matthew Robins, BUS'13, and Akshai Patel, BUS'13, which provides schools with the tools needed to track holistic student data — beyond academics — so that teachers can more effectively address the issues affecting student success.
- Trek Medics International, founded by Jason Friesen, MPH'12, which builds emergency medical systems in countries that do not have them — "911 where there is none"
- Kinnos Inc., cofounded by Jason Kang, SEAS'16, Katherine Jin, CC'16, and Kevin Tyan, CC'16, which produces a bleach additive called Highlight that improves visibility, coverage, and end-user compliance of disinfectants to better protect healthcare workers and patients from infectious disease.
Shaiza Rizavi, BUS'96, a member of the Tamer Fund for Social Ventures Investment Board, believes that the Tamer Fund "serves as an important launchpad for young businesses working to take on some of the world's most challenging issues. These entrepreneurs are approaching the world and business with inventive eyes, pushing to create products and services that can change lives for the better."
"It was a much-needed infusion of financial support to help us keep things moving forward, but it also provided validation of our mission and organization," said Jason Friesen, founder of Trek Medics International. "The Tamer Fund has a clear commitment to social ventures from all backgrounds. We are honored that the investment board chose to demonstrate that commitment by supporting us as their first nonprofit grantee. When we received word that we won the Tamer Fund grant, we were absolutely thrilled."
The winning ventures are selected after participating in an application-screening round, a due-diligence process with student teams as part of a Business School course, and a final pitch to the fund's investment board.

A group of British scientists have debunked the myth that young girls are at the peak of her attractiveness. The survey showed that most people consider the most beautiful woman after 30 years.
The survey covers more than two thousand inhabitants of Britain. Among the respondents were men, and women. Most confidently said that a woman is most attractive at age 31. At this age the lady combined the wisdom, skills, beauty, and sexuality. In addition, age after 30 years is the age of self-sufficiency and independence.

Women themselves at this age begin to perceive themselves as what they really are, not trying to change their identity under the influence of the reproaches of others. Confidence is often valued the opposite sex, and adds to the appeal.

Actuarial Matters
Every two years, an actuarial valuation for the Fund is completed by the Consulting Actuary. The valuation provides the present and future liabilities of the Fund and compares that to current and projected Fund assets, respectively. The 2017 valuation revealed a small deficit of 0.05% of pensionable remuneration, well within the corridor of +/-2% of pensionable remuneration recommended by the Fund's actuaries, which indicates that the Fund is very close to actuarial balance and is considered to be well funded.
Valuations are performed using economic assumptions such as inflation and investment return and demographic assumptions for projecting participant growth, mortality, separation, and disability. The regular valuation that was performed as of 31 December 2017 used the following three economic assumptions: (a) an assumed rate of increase in pensionable remuneration of 3.0 per cent per annum; (b) an assumed rate of nominal investment return of 6.0 per cent per annum; and (c) an assumed rate of inflation of 2.5 per cent per annum. It was also assumed that the growth in participant population for each of the next 10 years would be 0.5 percent per annum, with a "zero participant growth assumption", thereafter.

Ahoy Mateys!
This is the Captain speaking to discuss life!
I've mentioned before that I try to give 10% of my net income to charities but haven't delved into the specifics much besides this post.
It is time for another update!
The longest running charity that I give to each month is Plan International USA!
I have been donating $60 per month since July 2012!
Perhaps the funniest story of how I chose a charity to fund, I was actually solicited.
I absolutely LOVE door-to-door sales people/ solicitors.
Girl scouts are of course my favorite, because seriously who can say no to thin mint deliciousness, but I enjoy talking to anyone who has the courage to knock on my door because they usually have interesting stories.
In this instance, I was living on a 3rd floor apartment (no elevator) and had just got home from work when I hear a knock on the door.
An absolutely EXHAUSTED looking girl about my age is at the door and asks if I would be interested in hearing about this organization: Plan International. Obviously, she and her teammate have been up and down the stairs knocking on everyone's door in the complex.
I invite them in, give them water, they gave their whole spiel, and I was hooked.
Plan International is an organization that works world-wide to help communities in need, specifically in developing countries. Their specific targets are the children of these areas, helping them get the education and health care they need and helping them to get out of poverty.
From their website:
Our Vision
Our vision is of a world in which all children realize their full potential in societies that respect people's rights and dignity.
Our Mission
Plan strives to achieve lasting improvements in the quality of life of vulnerable children in developing countries by:
- Enabling children, their families and their communities to meet basic needs and to increase their ability to participate in and benefit from their societies;
- Fostering relationships to increase understanding and unity among peoples of different cultures and countries; and
- Promoting the rights and interests of the world's children.
Child Sponsorship
Plan's work is made possible thanks to nearly 1,100,000 people in 21 donor countries who support us by sponsoring a child as well as through donations from individuals, corporations and foundations, grants, and strategic partnerships with other organizations.
Since 2012, I have been sponsoring a young boy in the Philippians. Through the continuous updates from Plan, I have had the opportunity to write to him and to see him grow through the years.
Each month, my money goes to work in his community making sure there is water to drink, food to eat, shelter for everyone, and so much more.
Since joining, I have seen so much good being done, and I have no desire to stop anytime soon.
If you have been looking for a group to donate to, for any reason. I highly advise Plan International USA and encourage you to check out their website.
Until next time, avast ye scoundrels!

The 2018 4th of July Bike Parade that has made the island famous will be held at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, July 4.
That means be at PJ's Seagrille side parking area (between the Old Theatre Building and Englewood Bank & Trust) by at least 9:50 a.m. to get a primo spot in the procession.
The parade winds through the historical district pretty much in a random fashion, with much hornblowing and general mayhem. Decorations are encouraged, but make sure they are secured tightly so there isn't a lot of litter.
See you then!

Monday Morning Cup of Coffee takes a look at news coming across HousingWire's weekend desk, with more coverage to come on bigger issues.
How the real estate and the housing finance industries are doing seems to be a matter of perspective — as defined by where you're literally standing. Both coasts as well as Texas and many of the Sand States look pretty good right now, while the Midwest and Rust Belt are, to be generous, still hurting.
From the desk of Chris Flanagan at Bank of America/Merrill Lynch, comes this client note that puts a compelling turn on things.
"It is interesting to note that John Williams at the San Francisco Fed seems to want to raise rates sooner rather than later (to get San Francisco real estate under control?) while Charles Evans at Chicago and Narayana Kocherlakota at Minneapolis preach caution, as excess home price growth is not a problem in their backyard, the Midwest," Flanagan writes.
To date, given that there has been no rate hike yet, weakness at the low end seems to be the winner as the driver of monetary policy, he says. Going forward, the onus is on the hawks to prove they can meaningfully hike rates in the face of relative weakness at the low end of the economy.
"We're skeptical. A similar story seems to be playing out in Europe, where weakness in the peripheral economies such as Greece is keeping interest rates in stronger economies such as Germany near record lows," Flanagan says. "Let's call this a theme.
"We remain in the somewhat uncomfortable position of being neutral on securitized products, even after underperformance in the past couple of weeks. On one hand, we are inclined to believe that the Fed will be forced by persistent weakness at the low end of the economy to repeatedly delay hiking," he says, recalling the old joke about one-armed economists. "On the other hand, we hear the rhetoric about tightening; at a minimum, even if the Fed delays, the post-crisis days of the Fed put on risk assets are probably numbered, and the market will trade accordingly. Our neutral positioning is an attempt to balance the two sides. At a minimum, though, near term spread retracement seems likely."
The Urban Institute's Housing Finance Policy Center has just released a new blog, Three GSE risk-sharing innovations that could change housing finance reform.
The blog discusses the success Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have had in sharing risk with private investors: To date, private investors have accepted the bulk of the credit risk on 22% of Freddie's book of business and 13% of Fannie's.
The authors say three innovations are what make the deals successful:
The deals are no longer limited to the least risky mortgages. Mortgages with a loan-to-value ratio of over 80 are now included as well.
Private investors are now willing to share the first-loss risk with the GSEs.
- Private investors are now willing to accept actual, rather than a predetermined, loss.
It's now almost a month since Arizona Realtor Sidney Cranston went missing, and while the search continues and frustrations mount, other real estate agents see the case as a grim reminder of the dangers of being a Realtor, even if they are still holding out hope for Cranston.
There have been a couple of times when Realtor Dawn Brannies felt uneasy meeting a client in the middle of the desert, miles from the nearest neighbor, to show an empty home for sale.
That's why the designated broker at Kingman Premier Properties provides real estate agents with flashlights, Tasers and a smart phone application called "Be Safe" that activates an alarm and alerts the office or police if the agent is placed in a threatening situation.
Some agents have permits to carry firearms.
"Yes, when we are in rural areas with no one around for miles, we feel vulnerable," Brannies said Thursday. "Vacant houses pose a threat as we never know if squatters or transients have broken into the homes."
Brannies was the first to alert the Daily Miner about real estate agent Sidney Cranston, who once worked in her office and has been missing since June 16. He was reportedly going to meet a client regarding the sale of land he owns in Kingman and Golden Valley, but never showed up for the meeting.
It doesn't matter if you're a 6-foot, 250-pound man or a 5-foot, 100-pound woman, real estate agents have to be aware of their surroundings and take precautions, said Lauri Barker, 10-year real estate agent with ReMax Prestige Properties in Kingman.
On Tuesday the House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee will hold a hearing entitled "Fed Oversight: Lack of Transparency and Accountability." Witnesses include Mark Calabria, director of financial regulation studies, Cato Institute; Paul Kupiec, resident scholar, American Enterprise Institute; Alice M. Rivlin, senior fellow, economic studies, Brookings Institution, and John Taylor, professor of economics, Stanford University.
Incidentally, this comes a day before Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen speaks to the House Financial Services Committee on Wednesday, and the Senate Banking Committee on Thursday. It's also the day before the Beige Book is released.
This book is produced roughly two weeks before the monetary policy meetings of the Federal Open Market Committee. On each occasion, a different Fed district bank compiles anecdotal evidence on economic conditions from each of the 12 Federal Reserve districts.
Also on Thursday, we'll get the homebuilder confidence report for July from the National Association of Home Builders. Homebuilder confidence is expected to hold onto its entire 5-point surge in June, holding at 59 for July, analysts forecast. The new home market has been building steam and looks to become a leading sector for the second half of the year.
And finally, on Friday we'll get the Census Bureau's report on housing starts and permits. Starts and permits have been volatile and strong in recent months and are expected to remain so in June, with an expected 8.6% monthly gain in starts to 1.125 million, but a 7.6% decline for permits to 1.178 million.
Premier Bank of Denver, Colorado, closed the week ending July 10. The institution was acquired by United Fidelity Bank, according to the FDIC.

Nearly everybody knows what the prodigal son did (Lk 15:11-32). He brazenly asked his father for his inheritance long before it was due. Then he went a great distance from home in search of "real freedom." In that far-off place he attracted a following of ne'er-do-wells and together they caroused until his resources were spent.
Then came abandonment by his fair-weather "friends," degrading work as a pig-tender, grinding hunger, disillusionment and desperation, and finally his forlorn trek back home — smelly and in rags — to throw himself on his father's mercy.
Here's my question: Is there today a more nuanced and thus better explanation for the self-destructive course the son took?
For example, there is no mother in the story. Might it be that the lad had been deprived of maternal warmth in his developing years that had left him insecure and therefore vulnerable to his own impulsive conduct?
And there was his heartless older brother who objected bitterly to his father's tenderness toward the younger son. Should the prodigal's bad judgment be viewed as less serious because of destructive sibling rivalry that had never been resolved? Maybe this was a factor in his hasty leave-taking!
Then what about the father? Had this father played favorites or otherwise failed his task in raising this younger son — with damaging results?
Should we say, for example, that the son isn't responsible because his father should have put his foot down during the son's early adolescence and notified him sternly that what he needed to do was to develop a good work ethic right there on the farm?
Parental mistakes? If we could blame adolescent rebellion on less-than-perfect parenting, all of our children would be delinquents. That's because all parents make mistakes.
We can do things in our relating to our children, sometimes innocently, that inadvertently make it easier for them to turn to wasteful living. But is that the crucial issue in the prodigal's case? And why did Jesus tell the story the way he did, offering no excuses for this boy's behavior?
Next week, I'll offer an opinion.

Top Ten Male Celebrities Who Have Tried to Hide Going BaldWhether it's the lure of the Hollywood lifestyle, the desire to look young for movie or TV roles, or just the desire to not lose adoring, young fans, many celebrity males have gone to extreme measures to try to hide their baldness.
It can be a combover, a toupee, wig, hair transplant, hair plugs, or any other trick of aesthetic science, men (and women) have gone to some extreme measures to fake their head of hair. Rather than embracing the aging process and wearing a bald head with pride, these guys are trying to hide behind fake locks.
Here is a list of the top ten male celebrities who have gone to some measure of deception when it comes to their head of hair.
The Top Ten
Combover, toupee, dead animal, whatever... Donald Trump seems to be in some sort of denial when it comes to his own appearance. You'd think with all that money he would be able to afford a mirror.
He doesn't look good in general but the ugly Comb over is NOT helping
As if an orange with some fuzzy lint stuck to it rolled into the White House.
That looks like a toupee
From a receding hairline causing a mammoth-sized forehead, Cage has not been able to fool anybody. Nobody knows if it's a weave or hair plugs but he's definitely added some thickness to his follicles. - Finch
He's been balding for 20 years or so but it's still believed he wears a toupe - considering all the photos of him without it.
One of the few men who admits to wearing a toupee and wig, Agassi was wearing wigs back in 1990. - Finch
What 91 year old has THAT much hair? Take that with his odd hairline and what you have a recipe for hair plugs. Sorry Stan, you're no Superman when it comes to your hair.
You is the best man
Don't DISRESPECT THE FATHER OF MARVEL
Going from completely bald back in the 1980s to a thick head of blonde hair now, either he's found the fountain of youth or paid for the appearance thereof. - Finch
Mr. Connery was bald back before he played James Bond but wore a hairpiece for every one of his films in the series. He started balding in his 20s and has been fairly open about it other than when it comes to films. - Finch
Bald or not, he's the HOTTEST JAMES BOND OF ALL TIME.
Many people believe Shatner wore a toupee while filming the original Star Trek series, but he has never admitted to it. It is speculated that he has since had a hair transplant. - Finch
I agree with this 100 percent - AlbinoAlligator
He probably hid it during House, but seeing a documentary of him and his best friend, Stephen Fry, you will notice the baldness at the back of his head! So he is not hiding it, at all!
Ah...who cares if he tries to hide it if he has a voice like that? - Britgirl
Agreed. But the fact remains that he gives himself a little more hair when on set. - Finch
Balding since his days doing British sketch comedy shows, Dr. House has been covering up on camera (but luckily only there) for the last 30 years. - Finch
He has said before he enjoys dyeing his hair, person before me. He's not trying to be anything. He uses vegetable dye for his hair, though he does bleach it. He isn't losing hair, either. In some pictures you can see his hairline and it's very normal.
He dies his hair very often, likely using permanent and layering it with bleach for each new time. He should stop trying to be punk or a Gerard Way knock-off.
Just like the great abigail breslin said, his hair will all fall out.
If he continues dying his hair like THAT he will go bald.
The Contenders
Akshay Kumar Is Best Actor In World. His Best Comic timing & best looking ever. Akshay Kumar is the greatest action megastar. No one can't beat him as a stunt. Akshay Kumar is king of bollyeood, because he is doing well acting in all genre.
The scar on the back of his head is evidence enough that he has had a hair transplant - add that to the balding he showed while on the T.V. show Ellen, and you get a hair coverup. - Finch
Bruce Willis is already bald...
LOL why is Bruce up here?
Brett uses hair extensions. Don't be fooled haha - Sabbath
I can bet on 100 dollars if you pull his hair you'll see it's a wig. I saw a poll and about 85% voted that it was a wig.
Here's what I found another site,
"Speaking of this guy, Michael Angelo Batio, here's an interesting story.
There's a local Chicago musician I know who took a couple lessons from Michael Angelo way back in the day when he lived in the Chicago area. He was telling me this story: the first time he goes to the MAB's place, he rings the doorbell, and a bald, chubby, ugly guy wearing a beater and pajamas answers the door. Jay (the guy) says that he's there for the guitar lesson. The guy who answered the door tells him to wait one second, and he closes the door. Two minutes later, the same guy, wearing a wig and some more glamourous clothing, opens the door. Guess who? "
After all, glam metal artists don't go bald. - zxm
