As a medium, the newspaper has been an object of art since the mid-nineteenth century. Whether as tool for enlightenment or as an instrument of manipulation, artists have drawn on the medium in a number of ways and for several reasons, and to which they ascribe varying degrees of meaning. The exhibition ARTandPRESS. Art. Truth. Reality. presents around 50 artistic approaches, illustrating the network of links between journalism and art, and the ways in which artists draw on media for their creative production.The newspaper is considered the oldest information carrier and continues to be well-established among a broad public. And whereas a surge of radical changes has been brought about in the wake of media technologies, democracy, the modern state and present-day information society would be inconceivable without the newspaper.A brief glance at the art history of the foregoing 200 years shows a close-knit relationship between art and press. Art and the newspaper share common features in their intention to enquire, to clarify and to challenge accepted norms. The claim to illustrate reality as authentically as possible – objectively, subjectively and as pure assertion – is the common endeavor connecting the activity of news production and artistic creativity. The press creates the public, and art needs the public. A dependency accorded the newspaper as a medium within art.
In addition to contemporary exhibits, the show ARTandPRESS. Art. Truth. Reality. also includes an historical overview of the story of the newspaper both in and with art. And yet, not by way of originals, but via iPad – a medium which, already functioning as a digital newspaper, may be described as one of the biggest competitors to the analog press. For its part, in the exhibition the iPad becomes a carrier of art information in both pictorial and interactive forms. The modern medium seeks to make access to the historical works easier for the visitors, and to show the relationship between newspaper and art.The show consequently presents a broad spectrum of mediums: from classical painting and installations, object art and video through to cutting-edge forms of Internet communication. The exhibition ARTandPRESS Art. Truth. Reality. is a project sponsored by the foundation, Stiftung für Kunst und Kultur e.V. Bonn, and was first on show in Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin. Furthermore, at the ZKM | Museum of Contemporary Art a cabinet has also been installed in which one of Hans Richter's works from the ZKM | Karlsruhe collection is presented, in which newspapers were also used as elements of collage.Artists:

text: Saint Michael's Professor's discovery named a top 10 breakthrough for 2011 by Physics World News Home 02.06.12 Physics World announced its top 10 breakthroughs for 2011 on December 16th. Coming in at number 10 is Saint Michael's College Professor John O'Meara, with his colleagues Michele Fumagalli and Xavier Prochaska of the University of California, Santa Cruz, for their discovery of clouds of pristine gas from the very early universe- a triumph of Big Bang cosmology. The team was lauded by Physics World for being "the first to catch sight of clouds of gas that are pure relics of the Big Bang. Unlike other clouds in the distant universe - which appear to contain elements created by stars - these clouds contain just the hydrogen, helium and lithium created by the Big Bang. As well as confirming predictions of the Big Bang theory, the clouds provide a unique insight into the materials from which the first stars and galaxies were born." See the full announcement See the story of O'Meara's discovery - Pristine relics of the Big Bang spotted "We are grateful and delighted to have been named a top10 breakthrough in astrophysics, but there is plenty of work still to be done," Professor O'Meara said. Criteria for selecting the top 10 breakthroughs award The top 10 breakthroughs list has been compiled by the Physics World team, who reviewed over 350 news articles about breakthroughs in the physical sciences published on physicsworld.com in 2011. The criteria for judging included: fundamental importance of research significant advance in knowledge strong connection between theory and experiment general interest to all physicists A story of the astronomical break-through discovery appeared in Science, the premier science journal in the U.S., November 10, 2011. Using the giant 10-meter Keck I telescope in Hawaii, the three astronomers discovered two giant clouds of intergalactic gas whose chemical composition has been unaltered since the dawn of time. The clouds, located over 11 billion light years from Earth, offer direct supporting evidence for the Big Bang model of cosmology. O'Meara explained that in the Big Bang model only the very lightest elements such as Hydrogen and Helium were created during the first few minutes of the history of the universe. As cosmic time progressed over billions of years to the present, gas containing these few elements form stars and galaxies. As part of the life cycle of stars, the remaining elements, such as carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, are produced and recycled into the gas within and outside of galaxies. Until now, astronomers have always detected these heavy element remnants wherever they've looked. Gas with no trace of heavy elements was the break-through discovery. "These clouds are exciting for both what they do and don't have," Saint Michael's Professor O'Meara said. "Specifically, they represent the first detection of pristine gas: gas with no trace whatsoever of heavy element absorption. What the gas does contain, however, is hydrogen and its isotope deuterium in the levels predicted by Big Bang models." Although the discovery is a triumph for the Big Bang cosmology, O'Meara points out that it raises new questions. "A good overall model of cosmology, but plenty of work to do," O'Meara said. "These clouds have been uncontaminated by heavy elements for over two billion years since the Big Bang. This means that our understanding of how galaxies return heavy elements to their environments is incomplete. Although we've provided great evidence that our overall model of cosmology is a good one, we still have plenty of work left to do."

In praise of procrastination
When I sit down at my desk—especially if I'm starting a writing assignment or if the one I'm wrestling with is going poorly—I am consumed (consumed!) by the acute and irrepressible need to get up again. I have to go to the kitchen, as if something new might have found its way into the refrigerator since I last looked 20 minutes before. I must see if the mail has come, or the paper, which I then read. I'll wander into the bathroom, lean against the sink and examine the landscape of my face in the mirror. I look for and attack blemishes, tweeze wayward eyebrow hairs and occasionally give my teeth a good floss. The cruddy buildup at the base of my electric toothbrush (the origin of which I try hard not to think about) invariably needs cleaning. It's also essential that I go to the gym, which is near the fruit seller, which is up the road from the discount nursery. In that same loop are the cardboard-recycling plant, the liquor store and the cheap gas station. If I have enough quarters, I'll vacuum the car, then pay $6 to be transported through the Lammscloth automatic car wash.
I've always assumed that procrastination signals various emotional maladies: an anxious spirit, fear of conflict and failure, a self-sabotaging perfectionism (if you can't do it right, why bother at all?) or the delusional hope against hope that tomorrow will be a better day to start X or launch into Y. While no one who knows me well has ever accused me of being a perfectionist, every other one of these explanations applies to my own escapist proclivities to some degree or another. Worse, when I find myself slacking off, engaged in something like waterproofing all my winter shoes when I really should be writing, I am beset by guilt. What I'm doing is wrong. And not just because I'm wasting time that could be spent on priority project A, but because I believe that good people are defined not only by output but by method. Growing up, the prevailing ethos at home held that the best way to do anything was in a straight line. Thus, my zigzagging feels to me like a moral infraction.
Yet I know I couldn't sustain as many friendships or keep my house in order or my thank-you notes up to date if I didn't do these things when I should be setting up interviews or reading research files. The fact is, goofing off works for me as much, if not more, than it does against me. My procrastination efforts feed my gluttonous appetite for enjoying life, but beyond that, they can also be shockingly productive. I'll do anything to put off writing, and I'll do it well. The piles of Polarfleece hats my sister and I sewed for a winter crafts fair sold out completely. The merits of my dried cherry scones are widely known. I've won first prize for my quilting and an honorable mention in a citywide gardening competition.
Even more valuable, perhaps, is the way procrastinating puts whatever real project is at hand on simmer. When I'm stuck on the first sentence of an article, mindless activities like weeding my flower patch present an opportunity for reflection. It's as if certain thoughts have to find me and, once they do, can latch on only if I've left enough mental space for them. I've sorted out story structures while being lulled by the swish-swish of the car wash. I've solved financial problems on the treadmill. I've figured out how to end arguments with loved ones while waiting in line to pay for produce.
It's true that I'm expending energy on these diversions, but I am also building up steam. I may hide from certain tasks with meticulously maintained pedicures and overpruned crab apple trees, but at some point, I can rewire no more lamps, surf no more websites, eat no more snacks. All that's left, finally, is the urge to write. And once I start, once I've broken through the repellent blankness of the page, I no longer need to get up from my chair at every turn. I still get distracted, but the diversions are fewer and farther between.
Maybe all of my sidestepping is simply the long and snaky path I need to take to arrive at the destination that matters most—creative fulfillment and, of course, the paycheck that puts food on my table. At least that's what I tell myself. After half a life-time of perfecting the dilly and honing the dally, it's clear that, in the words of my favorite philosopher—basketball player Allen Iverson, "it's all good." Or, more accurately, it's all productive. There may be a better way to phrase that thought, but right now I've got to go plant the daylilies.
Be a productive procrastinator
Not all time-wasting activities are created equal. People who occasionally veer off track with inventive, clearly defined diversions before getting to a necessary chore (like working on a crossword for a half hour before writing a speech) may actually be moving closer to their goal, says Rita Emmett, author of The Procrastinator's Handbook (Walker & Company). On the other hand, studies suggest chronic procrastinators are apt to make more errors at work and may experience more anxiety and depression. To see if your dillydallying is fruitful or futile, keep these clues in mind:
You're a healthy dawdler if... you set time-wasting parameters. That means deciding beforehand how long you'll watch Must-See TV (as opposed to vegging out on the sofa for hours on end) and sticking to the limit by setting a timer if you have to. "A 30-minute break, when you plan for it, can leave you feeling more motivated," Emmett says.
You're an unhealthy dawdler if... you save a mammoth project for the absolute last minute. Instead, procrastinate—and accomplish—in stages. If you're hosting a party in three weeks, send a hold-the-date e-mail, then worry about the menu the following week. When that time comes, brainstorm about the food and drink, then make a grocery list. That way you satisfy the need to put off while inching toward your goal.
You're a healthy dawdler if... you diverge creatively. Go ahead—give yourself brownie points for writing a poem about the color purple. "Any activity that gets your mental juices flowing can help you overcome roadblocks," says Emmett. Even better: Engage in a creative pastime that's relevant to the task at hand, such as snapping family photos instead of writing your parents' anniversary toast.
You're an unhealthy dawdler if... you invite distraction. When your e-mail is chiming, your phone is ringing and the radio is blaring, you're setting yourself up for projectus interruptus. Instead, try banishing the background noise. Hit mute, pull plugs—do whatever it takes to foster an environment conducive to producing.

Hall Sensor Theory A Hall sensor is a solid state device that provides an output voltage proportional to magnetic flux density. As implied by its name, this device relies on the Hall effect. The Hall effect is the development of a voltage across a sheet of conductor when current is flowing and the conductor is placed in a magnetic field.
Electrons (the majority carrier most often used in practice) "drift" in the conductor when under the influence of an externally produced electric field. These moving electrons experience a force proportional and perpendicular to the product of their velocity and the magnetic field vector. This force causes the charging of the edges of the conductor, one side positive with respect to the other, resulting in an internally generated transverse electric field which exerts a force on the moving electrons equal and opposite to that caused by the magnetic-field-related Lorentz force. The resultant voltage potential across the width of the conductor is called the Hall voltage and can be measured by attaching two electrical contacts to the sides of the conductor.
As can be seen from the above formula, the Hall voltage varies with the angle of the sensed magnetic field, reaching a maximum when the field is perpendicular to the plane of the Hall sensor. Hall sensors come in axial and transverse configurations.
Using a Hall sensor
A typical Hall effect measurement scheme
Attaching discrete Hall sensors to Lake Shore gaussmeters
Transverse devices are generally thin and rectangular in shape. They are applied successfully in magnetic circuit gaps, surface measurements, and general open field measurements.
Axial sensors are mostly cylindrical in shape. Their applications include ring magnet center bore measurements, solenoids, surface field detection, and general field sensing. See the individual Hall sensor illustrations for physical dimensions.
Active AreaThe Hall sensor assembly contains the sheet of semiconductor material to which the four contacts are made. This entity is normally called a "Hall plate." The Hall plate is, in its simplest form, a rectangular shape of fixed length, width and thickness. Due to the shorting effect of the current supply contacts, most of the sensitivity to magnetic fields is contained in an area approximated by a circle, centered in the Hall plate, whose diameter is equal to the plate width. Thus, when the active area is given, the circle as described above is the common estimation.

Chalet Hotel Edelweiss Reviews
A lovely little hotel with very friendly staff. Situated in Jouvencieux about 1 Km from Sauze about 100 metres above the Jouvencieux lift. Very handy to ski down to in the morning, returning to Sauze in the evening for apres ski, prior to getting the shuttle bus back to Jouvencieux for dinner at the hotel. Food in the hotel is reasonable, and the bar is small and very inviting. If you want to sample Sauze night life, a lift can normally be arranged with Bruno, (The owner) although the walk up to Sauze is not too taxing. Just booked again for the 5th year. Excellent.
Apres Ski: 4/5
Accommodation & Value: 3/5

It's just all that sneaky touching that Jamie was doing at night while he thought I was asleep. I kept hoping it was you, but nope, it was that skinny little bastard.
PS: I have to admit, it was like listening to the women at the water cooler....this thread has to the first one I have read all the way through in a long time. I am anxiously waiting for Master Chef to show up any minute.
He'll be fine.It's not like it was a prototype that IS irreplaceable (sp.).It was an existing mass produced figure with yellow paint, nothing more, nothing less.
Now if we could get Jamie and Brent to stop talking about touching eachother, all would be dandy in here.

Treasuries fell for a second day as a report showed the U.S. unemployment rate unexpectedly declined last month, boosting speculation that stimulus from the Federal Reserve will accelerate the labor recovery and damping refuge demand.
The yield on the 10-year note rose to the highest level in a week as a report showed the U.S. added 114,000 jobs in September, compared with a revised 142,000 gain the previous month. The benchmark security broke a four-day rally yesterday after minutes of the Fed's last meeting showed policy makers saw manageable risks in a third round of U.S. bond buying.
"The reaction is about the unemployment rate declining -- household employment moved up an awful lot, and you had revisions in the prior month's payrolls," Christopher Sullivan, who oversees $2 billion as chief investment officer at United Nations Federal Credit Union in New York. "It's a piece of more optimistic data."
The yield on 10-year notes rose five basis points, or 0.05 percentage point, to 1.73 percent at 9:06 a.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader data, the highest since Sept. 25. The 1.625 percent security due August 2022 slipped 13/32, or $4.06 per $1,000 face amount, to 99 3/32. Thirty-year bond yields rose six basis points to 2.95 percent.
The unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent in September, the lowest since January 2009, as employers took on more part-time workers. The rate, which dropped from 8.1 percent, was forecast to rise to 8.2 percent, according to the median estimate of 88 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. The median estimate for job gains was 115,000, according to another survey.
Lost 'Luster'
"People are looking at the rate more than anything else," said Charles Comiskey, head of Treasury trading in New York at Bank of Nova Scotia, one of the 21 primary dealers that trade with the Fed. "They are saying it's not as bad as they originally thought. It's taken some luster out of the marketplace."
The payrolls data comes a month before the U.S. presidential election. Employment and the economy are central themes in the campaign, with President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney each trying to convince voters they can best energize the expansion and create jobs. The jobless rate has stayed above 8 percent since February 2009.
While reducing borrowing costs, the Fed hasn't made steady progress toward meeting its mandate to achieve full employment.

Hero Tower Defense Thursday: Day 23 - HTD Pre-Alpha v0.004 Release! Fire skills are back and more!
Welcome to Hero Tower Defense Thursday!
What's New:
-Re-added Fire skills
-Added Key Bindings, 0 is your Native Skill, 1 is skill slot 1, and 2 is skill slot 2.
-Added new Native Skill graphics for Fire and Shadow, they are no longer just glows that grow
-Made one hero all Fire, another all Shadow, and the last a mix which randomly picks which NS to use and which other two skills to use as well as which skill slots to put them in between 1 and 2 (so sometimes magical skills like the fireball and shadow bite will be in skill slot 1 for example)
-Added new graphics for Shadow skill icons and effects
-Added a new red whelp that is stronger than the original whelp and will attack you with fireballs unless you get close to them
-Nerfed original orange whelp so that they can't spit fireballs anymore and only melee attack
-Implemented Elemental Countering, currently with only two types of elemental skills this isn't going to be very noticeable but the Fire Native Skill (NS) will erase the Shadow NS because Fire counters Shadow (Currently only NS counter eachother, other skills are left alone for now). However, your heroes are clever (well a little anyway) and won't use their NS on a target that already has another NS on it unless it's the same type, otherwise they'll attack the target using one of their other skills.
Each week I'll list and update the descriptions for the current skills available in the game. That way you guys know what they actually do (eventually there will be in-game descriptions). I'll just provide a brief description for now because the actual damage values and such will be changing a lot as we tweak them. You'll be able to see them in the future though.
Key Terms:
Direct Damage (DD) - Causes full damage instantly
Damage over Time (DoT) - Causes continuous damage over a period of time
Damage after Time (DaT) - Causes damage after a period of time has passed
Here are descriptions for the current skills in the game:
Burn (Native Elemental - Stackable DoT - Fire Burning Man Icon) - Sets your target on fire causing it to take continuous damage. Stacks up to five times. Grants the caster a Fire Charge that increases their Fire Damage. A character can hold up to five charges at a time.
Flame Strike (Tier 1 Physical Elemental - DD - Fiery Sword Icon) - Attacks with your weapon ignited in flames.
Fireball (Tier 1 Magical Elemental - DD - Fireball Icon) - Hurls a fireball at your target
Infliction (Native Elemental - Stackable DoT - Shadow Consuming Man Icon) - Inflicts your target with Shadow decreasing it's Physical and Magical Defense. Stacks up to five times. Grants the caster a Shadow Charge that increases their Shadow damage. A character can hold up to five charges at a time.
Dark Strike (Tier 1 Physical Elemental - DD + DaT - Shadowy Sword Icon) - Attacks with your weapon engulfed in shadow, does additional damage after timer runs out.
Shadow Bite (Tier 1 Magical Elemental - DD + DaT - Shadow Bolt Icon) - Casts a shadowy bolt at your target that fills it with darkness till it explodes, does additional damage after timer runs out.
Currently in the Works:
Revised Human Male
Water/Nature/Light Elemental Skills
Character Customization
Character Skill Selection
Interface Additions
And More!
Kevin currently has a poll going on his blog, KXN @ HTD for determing what order we'll be adding the elemental skills in (Ignore the The Second Element title, he's just extending the time and it won't let him change it). Shadow was winning originally so we did that as the second element already.
On a final note, if you haven't been to Kevin's blog let me provide you with a glimpse of the revised Human Male who will be join the battle soon!

Jaffe: How to Achieve the American Dream
As the nation celebrates its birthday and the people live out a slice of the proverbial American dream — a good life, spent enjoying prosperity with friends and family — it's a good time to see just how and why that vision looks different now than for generations past. Chuck Jaffe joins MoneyBeat.

The Barr Brothers are causing a buzz in the Indie world. Their self-titled debut release is a mostly acoustic journey into the duality of human emotion. They explore the context of our true feelings, and the complex emotions that make us betray them. The Barr brothers are not new on the scene, they are the founding members of The Slip. They have dropped the theatrical nature of their former band for a more stripped down, yet complex sound. The album's ethereal undertone is accentuated by inclusion of the harp played by Sarah Paige.
Though mostly acoustic, there is some gritty Rock & Roll, like the Electric Blues on "Lord I Just Can't Keep From Cryin'". Another interesting track is "Give the Devil Back His Heart", which mixes in Native American influences. However, the song that really stands out, and is one of the best songs I have come across this year is the opener, "Beggar in the Morning". The song is perfectly arranged with poignant lyrics. The song provides a very dark but true picture of how relationships can evolve over time. "Hello I'm a monster too and what poisons me is what poisons you too. Into these animals we grew, but when we were young our eyes were blue". Although they are veteran musicians, their debut as the Barr Brothers is impressive and full of innovation.

Forward Progress: An Opinion is Worth A Thousand Words
Hello to all. It's me TD, and I would just like to take a brief moment to say hello again and welcome to my weekly column: Forward Progress. I will be sharing my thoughts and opinions with all of you, every Thursday, over the course of the roller coaster that is the NFL season. I will never claim to be all-knowing as this is just a place to speak my humble opinions and I hope that you all will correct me when you believe I am wrong and share your opinions on my opinions. Of course, I would like to thank Lone Star Struck for this amazing forum that all of us Cowboys fans should be thankful for. It continues to be an honor to be a part of the great team here at LSS!
It's funny that I mentioned opinions in my small introduction above, because that is exactly one of the things that I want to discuss. With training camp looming like a beacon of light to illuminate the darkness that is the off-season, I am reminded of all things good….and bad about football season. The good, well that's easy, it's optimism, it's excitement, it's the sharing of Sundays with family and friends, and the thrill of victory when our Dallas Cowboys pull it out in the end. The bad, well, it's pretty simple…..the fair weather fans, the unwarranted ripping and criticizing of the players and coaches after a poor performance, and yes, the actual sadness of defeat when the good guys do lose.
There is no other sport as popular as football, at least here in the United States, and with all of that comes the wide range of things that come along with that kind of passion, you just learn to accept it I guess. I try my very hardest to not be a fair weather fan, but I do get really upset when we lose just like everyone else. I will rip someone for poor effort or quitting, but not for making mistakes. I just want to be clear that I am not saying anyone is a better fan than anyone else, because that is usually what people say as a defense if you criticize them for criticizing the Cowboys, if that makes sense.
I am just humbly sitting here in my living room, wondering how long will the honeymoon last, and how long until MySpace and Facebook and the chat rooms are calling for Romo to be cut and Wade to be fired? It's just an amazing dynamic to witness over the course of the season. It's going to be interesting, as the NFL did us no favors, and we will have to be ready to go as a team from the time we break camp, or we could be looking at a tough start to the season and we could see many seats available on the bandwagon, as people jump off as fast as they can. I am confident we will weather the early quarter of the season, and hopefully the worst case scenario will be a 2-2 start. Either way, I will be right here, riding shotgun on the Dallas Cowboys bandwagon. I hope the majority of Cowboys fans will do the same, and not let the small percentage of the negative fans ruin our spirit and/or take away our hope.
Another thing I was thinking about was playmakers. Who in your opinion is the Cowboys top playmaker? The one guy that is going to be there week in and week out, making big time plays when the team needs them the most? A dynamic, dominating player that makes the other teams gameplan around him?
To me, it is simple, there is no other player on our team like that other than DeMarcus Ware. He is a superstar that requires constant double and even triple teams at times to stop him, or should I say try and stop him, as he still led the NFL in sacks last year, and was robbed of the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award by the anti-Cowboys media.
Yes, Romo is the QB and he touches the ball on every snap, and is an incredible playmaker, but let's face it: Tony has to prove some things this year, he has to hold on to the football better, cut down on turnovers, and be consistent over the entire 16 game schedule to take his place among the "elite" quarterbacks. I believe he will do those things, and Felix Jones will get some chatter as a top playmaker with his big play ability and speed, but as of today….RIGHT NOW, DeMarcus is the team's top playmaker.
Taking a quick glance around the NFC East and you see it is not a division filled with big play ability, you have a few speed guys like DeSean Jackson of the Eagles, and Santana Moss of the Redskins seems to always have his best games against the Cowboys, but mostly it is a division built around defense, grinding running games and above average quarterback play. That is why I don't understand why people think that we are going to be so ineffective without "the player who will go unnamed" at the WR position. I have nothing against the guy, but you can win this division without the original 81, and you can also NOT win it with him.
Quick Hits:
- Micheal Vick is reportedly hoping to speak with Commisioner Roger Goodell about a partial re-instatment allowing him to participate in a teams training camp while awaiting a final decision from the league, similar to what Pac Man had last year for the Cowboys. I just can't see an NFL team giving him a shot. I may be completely wrong but I just don't see any team wanting to go through the media scrutiny and the criticism from the public, just to have him in their camp. I Guess we'll see.
- Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams is undergoing training to become a massage therapist, according to the New York Times. Basically more well known for his off-the-field pot smoking antics than his football prowess on the field, Williams is looking towards his post-football career in holistic healing and medicine. He said he plans to play football for two more years and then retire. I was always a huge Ricky fan, and I give him credit for getting his life back in order. I hope he finds happiness in his career choice and stays healthy to finish out his career.
- Former Buffalo Bills quarterback J.P. Losman has signed a one year deal with the upstart UFL's Las Vegas franchise. He becomes the league's marquee player, which is not saying much. The UFL's inaugural season will last six games and end on Thanksgiving weekend. I am predicting that the UFL's second season will be…..never.

Live Long & Prosper: Sci-fi Images in Contemporary Indigenous Art
Opening October 26, 2018
About the Museum
Established in 1959, the New Mexico State University Museum has provided fifty years of service to the university and the community. The Museum assists NMSU in providing quality education, advancing knowledge through research, and celebrating the culture and history of the southwest and the University. The Museum serves the community as a repository and exhibitor of local and regional culture and history.
Through its care and maintenance of donated ethnographic, historic and prehistoric objects it preserves an important part of Southwestern and Border region culture and history. The Museum also encourages student and faculty research on our diverse cultural materials. Additionally, Museum faculty members supervise independent student research projects each semester.
The Museum collections are primarily anthropological (archaeological and ethnographic) with secondary collections in history and the natural sciences. Anthropological collections document the cultural diversity of the border in the Greater Southwest and northern Mexico. The preservation and cataloguing of collections promotes research and access to cultural materials. Exhibits are developed by students and staff as well as brought in from other institutions.
These exhibits focus on the traditions of on-going historic and prehistoric cultures. Past exhibits have explored life in 1930s' New Mexico, Southwestern weavings, prehistoric cultural interactions along the Gila River, the Fremont expedition, and everyday life in a Las Cruces Hispanic household at the turn of the 20th century. The Museum also provides public lectures on a variety of topics. These lectures feature faculty, staff, and visiting experts who present insights on cultural traditions, events, and activities

I was going to do something more elaborate -- then saw this polish in my untried indies stash. It was perfect! F4 Drunken Zombie -- it's from their Halloween collection last year. It's a mix of different sized green, purple and a smattering of black hex glitter along with some small gold glitter in a green undertoned yellow creme base.
I layered it over a bright yellow, Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow, to have a more Mardi Gras yellow effect.
You can see what it looks like in the bottle in the 2nd picture :) It applied well, this is 2 thin coats over the yellow base. Enough glitter where you could do one coat, but I like using thin coats for more control.
F4 Polish can be found on their Facebook here and their Etsy here!
I'm going to eat some sweets in honor of Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday, y'all have an awesome day!

Situating a new live-work-play destination within central Moscow, Russia, Kuntsevo Centre will deliver a modern community gathering destination rooted in art, nature, and urban connectivity. In a district historically preferred by artists and writers, Kuntsevo Centre takes queues from the Russian Avant-garde art movement, incorporating intricate geometries and bold colors to create an iconic building composition inextricably linked to its host-place. Equally important is the project's role for local residents as a key urban connector within the Kuntsevo neighborhood. The project's key planning strategies are based on the relationship of the building to the existing urban patterns found around the site, creating a circulation plan that allows the community to naturally flow through the project.
Within the project, nature serves as the fundamental element to host unique visitor experiences. The notion of nature and the celebration of the four seasons draw visitors into the complex as an extension of the surrounding green spaces and vegetation, resulting in a sense of public pride and ownership in the project. Once inside, the natural flow of the pedestrian streetscapes, plazas, courtyards and the spectacular indoor / outdoor green park terraces will create a sense of discovery and public exploration.
Consisting of over 200,000 sq m of GFA, including 70,000 sq m of spectacular light-filled retail and entertainment spaces, plus three contemporary Class-A office buildings, and two high-rise residential towers with lush rooftop park terraces, the new complex will deliver one of the first truly integrated, innovative mixed-use destinations in Moscow, serving as a catalyst for future sustainable development. Providing a new stage for dynamic public activity and distinct commercial offerings, the pedestrian-orientated centre will establish a vibrant leisure, shopping, business, and residential complex reconnecting the urban fabric of the historic Kuntsevo district, while creating a new landmark and urban living room for the city.

Iqra'a TV
I know many people have different opinions about Iqra'a TV. Some think of it as fitting the general trend in our society of herds' brain washing, and attempting too hard at making Islam hip in most of those stupid kids programs. I think overall its a good channel however. Quite diverse in its presentation of Islam. The reason I'm writing this post is I'm watching Moez Masoud's program now, and I just love this kid.
He's well informed, perfect English (with no accent), excellent Arabic, recites Quran properly. Has an interesting perspective, and really connects. Pretty modern guy talking about traditional stuff. Right now talking about Imam Ghazali's book, alarba3een fee usul aldeen, and fiqh albaten, and quoting Pearl Jam for God's sake. I love this guy.
Here's some random realtime captioning of what he's saying right now:
"You love to the point that you become enslaved to the one you love. yashtagheloon belta3a. The output manifestation of this is obediance. Worship is based on love. When you read suret Taha, wa ma a3jalaka 3an kawmeka ya mousa, ha'aola'a 3ala athary, they're right there, wa 3ajelta elayka rabby letarda
The translation is a big burden. I can't translate to you what Allah is saying
Anyways, wa 3ajelta elayka rabby letarda.. I've rushed to you my lord letarda. how do we see ppl going early to prayer? .. the point is, how do ppl go to prayer on time. Obviously all this worship is based on the heart.. loving God
Ghazali brings out that verse. yo7ebohom wa ye7oboohom. All you who believe, if u turn away from ur religion
I don't believe the people who are non-muslims should be called non-muslims. I don't think they got the Islam message properly. I don't like to call them non-muslims.
Kafar in arabic is cover. Prayer in language is communication. Kafar is covering up something. Covering up truth. To be a Kafer you need to know that Muhammad is Allah's messenger, and then cover that up.
You guys should put the 'fun' back in 'fundamental'"
Great kid.

Next week, Infopeople is sending a few California librarians to a new and unusual library conference. "R-Squared" (Risk x Reward) promises an exciting "mountaintop experience," both in that cheesy life-changing sense and also in a completely literal sense, as we'll be spending a few breathless days in Telluride, Colorado, at close to 10,000 feet. We've received advisory emails about drinking extra water, toning down weekend exercise goals, and coming with open minds. The conference focuses on experiences that will vividly demonstrate how to lead libraries in taking healthy but meaningful risks--risks with rewards that will revitalize libraries, keeping us relevant and even innovative in a changing world.
Although I now live and work at sea-level in Los Angeles, I grew up on Cobb Mountain in Lake County, and just a few summers ago spent 13 weeks in the Sierra, so I'm pretty familiar with mountaintop experiences. I remember the exhilaration, the inspiration--and needing to sleep a lot. Here's hoping for a week of beautiful perspectives on the Rockies and libraries, new dreams and ideas to bring back to California, and a conference schedule with mandatory nap-time built in!

In an old blog post entitled "Verbose GC output. Performance Problem or Always On Monitoring?" we covered how to log verbose:gc output to a single file or series of circular log files. This helps to maintain a history of GC activity which is a good thing for analysing a number of memory and performance related issues.
A number of applications have in-built High Availability features, which usually work by causing the application to be automatically restarted if an outage is detected. This minimizes downtime, but can result in a number of log files from the previous application instance being over-written by the new process.
This can be avoided in the case of the verbose:gc log file, and a number of other log files produced by the IBM Java Runtimes, using a %pid substitution in the file name, eg.
-Xverbosegclog:/logs/vgc.%pid.outwill cause the process id to be included in the file name.

Learning from Blogs
Today I was reading my friend Leland Meitzler's Genealogy Blog. His post "Discover the Van Dusens of New Amsterdam - 1627-2011" has a link to the full article in the New York Times, published on 22 July 2011. The name Van Dusen popped right out and I knew that I would learn from that article since I research the family in New Amsterdam. Thanks, Leland!
Each day I read the short, but informative blog written by Michael John Neill called Genealogy Tip of the Day. On 19 July 2011 he wrote about the terms devise and bequeath. Thanks Michael for informing us that devise refers to real property and bequeath to personal property.
Since grade school days I have been fascinated with the Lost Colony of Roanoke. The history book account sparked an interest in mysteries that need to be solved. My interest was later rekindled when I discovered early ancestors living in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. They weren't members of the Lost Colony, though. Because of my interest in that part and place of history, I frequently read the blog, Lost Colony Research Group. If you enjoy history and genealogy in combination, check out the blog, Jamestown Adventurers. It is a part of Virginia Pioneers.net. You might want to also check out their web page.
Now is the time to celebrate the Civil War. There are many blogs pertaining to the war, research, reenactments and events. I would be hard pressed to figure out my favorite. To find some of those great blogs, check out Best of the Civil War Blogs.
For a "trip" to a foreign country, read a blog. You don't need to pack a suitcase or make travel arrangements! I like the blogs Scotlands Genealogy and Scottish GENES. Linda Elliott writes a great blog about genealogy, English genealogy in particular, at Mad About Genealogy. Family Tree Tours brings us the blog, Heritage Travel. There are photographs, links, videos and many research tips. If you have European ancestry, be sure to click and read.
Some bloggers write to share family experiences, such as can be found at my sister-in-law's blog, Those Old Memories. Others share research travels and experience. One of my favorites is Reflections From the Fence, written by Carol Stevens. Travel with Carol as she and her husband and dogs go searching for adventure and ancestors. Learning skills are shared at Adventures in Genealogy Education written by Angela McGhie.
There is a lot to learn by reading blogs, such as the Library of Congress Blog. Not every post contains information about genealogy, but they are interesting and you will a great deal about the library, history and yes ... genealogy. The Allen County Public Library's blog, The Genealogy Center, brings news about the library, plus research information.
If I didn't mention your blog, it doesn't mean I don't read it and enjoy it. Hey bloggers ... keep up the good work!

NEW HAVEN — John Ben Modi stood solemnly in a neatly pressed gray suit, eyes closed, his right hand raised.
The Hon. Judge John M. Conroy, robed and bespectacled, read from a piece of paper on the podium in front of him.
"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty."
Modi repeated the words.

Does anyone know what is a good stitch to use when binding? I tried the slip, but didn't like the looks.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Does anyone know what is a good stitch to use when binding? I tried the slip, but didn't like the looks.
press the folded edge under first.
stitch as though you were doing applique. teeny tiny stitches, bringing your needle straight up through the layers, catching only two threads of the binding, then needle straight down through the layers.
or stitch in such a way that you catch only the top and the edge of binding that's been folded under. sounds a lot harder than it is. there are a couple of ways to do it, but neither is very easy to describe. experiment with some scraps until you find a method that works for you. it won't take long. just trust yourself and dive in. :P
Since I just spent the weekend putting binding on two quilts, I can tell you what I do.
I make a french binding (long strips folded in half lengthwise and then sew on the top of the quilt.) I fold the folded edge over and slip stitch it, careful that not only does the thread blend with the backing, but that the stitches don't show. I stitch about every 1/8 of an inch, and I make a knot every few inches to help keep it secure.
Hope this helps.
Use a blind stitch, not a slip stitch, to sew the binding to the back. As Patrice said, it's the same stitch used for applique. With thread that matches the binding, pick up just one or two threads of the backing fabric exactly underneath the edge of the binding, then slide your needle into the fold in the binding. Bring the needle back out of the fold about 1/8 inch away from where you entered. Repeat. The closer together you make the stitches, the more durable the binding will be.
I cut my material 2 1/2 wide fold in half and sew on my machine 1/4 from folded side to edge of the quilt and just flip it to the back side and do a tiny stitch like when you applique.
I must be strange cause I really like binding my quilts. Maybe because it means I'm done and ready to go to another project.But I also hand, quilt not machine. Sometimes I have to quit for a few days to give my fingers a rest they get pretty sore. I use a thimble for pushing but you just gotta feel the needle to know it's gone through and ready to go back up.
I watched this today and found it very helpful for finishing the binding with your machine.

1. Install with a VM
You can setup VirtualBox to use a raw hard drive as one of its drives. If you mount that drive and a Windows 8 installation ISO, you will be able to install Windows very quickly. Usually a simple reboot should be enough to be able to use Windows.
2. Simply copy the files of an existing installation. (caveat: Apps no longer worked for me, and it was very slow)
3. If booting does not work, manually set up the boot disk
- Copy bcdboot from x:\windows\system32\bcdboot to your windows drive, e.g. C:.
- Use it to make drive X bootable: C:\bcdboot X:\windows /s b:
Of course the target drive X should be a primary partition formatted with nfts already and the partition should be active.
Have fun!

an interview for Bomb Magazine
If I can return to the misuse of philosophy in fiction — that is, to novelists who engage in overt philosophical posturing — I suppose my disappointment stems from my feeling that great works of art only murmur their knowledge, whereas the worst ones seem to want to parade it. Back in the seventies, Gordon Lish observed of Stanley Crawford that, reading his work, "one senses the pressure of having read all that's to be read without trying to give evidence of erudition." That sense of pressure is what I'm after. That's why Wittgenstein disliked Tolstoy's more didactic works; as he wrote in a letter to Norman Malcolm, "when Tolstoy turns his back to the reader, then he seems to me most impressive. His philosophy is most true when it's latent in the story." Cora Diamond's gloss on that letter stresses the sense in which, for Wittgenstein, philosophy should be "contained in the work, but not by being spoken of, not by being told."
I'd say it's the same with the question of art and knowledge. Take Gerhard Richter's painting, Betty (1988). Or Velasquez's Las Meninas. In each case, the composition is organized in such a way that the perspectival structure forces a deviation of the spectator's attention. That's what a lot of the artworks I work on are doing. That's what, say, Jason Schwartz is doing. Like Richter's Betty, Schwartz's work has its back turned. Like her, his language is looking at something I can't see; it knows something I'll never know. Confronted with this kind of object, the task is no longer to try to uncover art's knowledge, but rather to follow its gaze.

illuminos necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 37 diseños de 15 diseñadores freelance.
Global Dance Iniitiative
I am a 22 year old recent graduate. I used to dance hip hop for a team, when I discovered this idea for a site. I want to spread elite choreography to people that wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity, and will do so via this site. I am very open, honest, and professional when I need to be. That said, I would like to have fun working on this as well, and expect to be in touch with my customer base. I hope to build a fun, respectful, and inspirational community.
12-24 year old males and females who are very outgoing. We want to focus on the betterment of ourselves and the world around us.
I'd like for the font to be very clean. Maybe the font could be like the font in spy movies. Just very clean.
I'd like for the logo to be in either green, black, and white (and any shades in between)
or blue, black, and white (with any shades in between)
Would be on this site template, where "solved" is:
Would also be nice if you could work on the puzzle background and change that to something dance related - it would definitely have to be dark so that our logo could stand out though. Thanks!

Emily Dimov-Gottshall is the imaginative artist behind the
Altoona, Pennsylvania based
EDGE Gallery
How would you describe your work?
I enjoy working in a variety of different art mediums...from acrylic to watercolor, collage to fabric and clay. At times, these over lap each other and other times, I have fun exploring the medium by itself. My work usually involves a bit of magic, some elements found in nature and overall inspired by life.
When I create a new piece using watercolors in the ACEO form, I am limited by the size of the piece (2.5 by 3.5 inches). However, this is what makes the piece exciting for me and I hope for the collector. I try to give each piece some sort of emotional connection...whether it's humor, sorrow or joy. Once I know what I'm trying to convey, I can jot down a sketch or to freehand a piece.
When I work with paper clay, I often freehand my pieces. My sculptures are rarely drawn down...unless to solve some physical challenge of the pieces. My Sammie Crow piece was a challenge as it is top heavy and is supported by wooden legs on a wooden platform. I figured out by adding wire into the wooden legs, I could attach it to the wooden platform and they would balance each other.
I also work with wood carving and for these I do sketch out my ideas. With wood, there is this intense time period where you are investing a lot of your physical energy into giving the wood dimension and form. I compare it to animation in some ways...you don't want your story to be cheap or too simple if your going to be putting so much artistry into your work. So, you do give it a lot of thought and time. And yes, it does make it harder to give your work to the world. You want to keep them all. lol
How long have you been creating Halloween themed art?
I started around 2006 or earlier. I sort of stumbled into it, actually. I really love Tim Burton's Nightmare before Christmas and thought, wow! There is a whole other world of magical realism! I love magical realism.
I also love the Day of the Dead. When I lived in Los Angeles, we were very lucky to have a strong connection to the Day of the Dead. I loved these cultural events as they are unique to what I celebrated in my family but am still very connected to these days. Who hasn't lost a loved one? It's this remembering of those who have left us, I find so poignant in Halloween and Day of the Dead art.
I also like how there is this overall acceptance of Women in Halloween art. For me, I see it as a celebration of Women who were often on the fringe of society and labeled a witch. I tend to see them as some of the first doctors/caretakers and hope I celebrate a little of this in my work. My work is often a gentler view of Halloween. :)
What do you consider your greatest creative challenge?
My greatest challenge is time. I have 3 children and a house full of pets and yes, time is very important. I carve time out by getting up early, limiting TV watching and have found it's getting easier as the children grow. Oddly, the children do help to keep me inspired. I probably wouldn't do as much art if I didn't have them in my life. They keep me balanced and focused.
Creatively, I find it challenging to get fresh ideas. This is why I have piles of books by artists and art I admire. Gustav Klimt, American Abstract Art collection, Beatrix Potter, etc. all of these, help me when I need inspiration. When I feel as though I'm tapped out, I reach for a book and within an hour, I feel as though I can start a new series of painting.
What do you like most about being a member of EHAG?
I enjoy the camaraderie and the support. The group has been great to push you in directions you wouldn't have thought of. I like how they get you excited about doing something new in Halloween art.
What was your favorite childhood costume, and why?
I probably had 2 favorites. Wonder Woman and a Gypsy woman. Wonder Woman was a store bought plastic costume that was totally uncomfortable (imagine Halloween in Southern California...hot!). But I loved the mask and being someone who could save people and was a strong woman. The Gypsy woman was a favorite because my aunt put lipstick on me and my sister and this seemed so wow to me!
Do you have any favorite Halloween Traditions?
Besides trick or treating and watching "Nightmare before Christmas", I love decorating the house up. I usually have the fireplace covered in a little Halloween town theme with lights and all. I enjoy making a little magic happen in the house and outside. Since we are geared towards the little ones, candy is a big part of it all. I'm okay with that. lol
Where do you find your inspiration?
Besides films like Nightmare before Christmas or the books on Klimt, I like Edward Gory's style and Hayao Miyazaki. When I saw Princess Mononoke in 1999 or 2000, I was like what is this incredible world? I was hooked, heart and soul. Then, I saw Spirited Away and Kiki's Delivery service (not in that order) and each time, I'm blown away by the depth and imagination of Miyazaki. I find his work has a way of capturing those details people often rush by and this is what makes his work so strong to me.
What are your artistic plans for the future?
I have been working on a novel...it's illustrated (hence the time factor). I want to make this available on Amazon. My other goals are to send out more to magazines for submissions, get an art agent and keep creating. I would like to see my work in stores some day. :) I guess that's a common goal of artists, but it's worth aiming for.
I was recently accepted into a juried artshow. It is one of my abstract art pieces. This is the 3rd show I've had work accepted through the juried process.
I also have work shown at "Art 4 Gallery", in Hollidaysburg PA. They just opened their own on-line shop! I'm also selling my work at my Etsy shop and plan to keep adding new work there.
This year I will be doing my "Art Yard Sale". I usually talk about it on my art blog for the local newspaper. Basically, I set up some tables in my yard and sell art. :) It's a nice way to met people, share my art and website and hear what people have to say. We are aiming for the first weekend in August. Last year was great as my first time selling and doing my Art Sale. It helps having a very supportive husband/partner who encourages me.
"Open the Vault" - tell us a secret that not many people know about you.
I am inspired by the Muppets and wanted to be a puppeteer. When I had my 7th birthday, my mom took us to see the Muppet Movie. I thought this was the best thing in the world. :) I wanted to make puppets (and have made quite a few) and if I could have connected to people who did this, I would be one right now. I love this art form and will always have a soft/fuzzy spot for puppet artists.
How do you balance your personal/professional life?
Often, I'll have the dining room table covered with paints and art supplies which makes eating dinner a challenge. I also have an art table in the dining room, which sort of helps. lol I have a studio in the basement, and have more tables set up with projects I'm in-progress on.
During the summer it's a little more difficult with the kids being under foot, however, they are used to finding paint brushes in the kitchen sink. Usually, it's not too chaotic...only when I'm planning to bring things to the gallery or having a show.
What shows if any will you be participating in this year/next year?
I will be participating in "Artists in our Midst" at SAMA (Southern Alleghany Art Museum) in September.
I will be having an Art Yard Sale on August 6th.
You can find my work at Art 4 Gallery in Hollidaysburg PA, www.art4gallery.com.
Emily Dimov-Gottshall's work is also available in/at Nutkins-nest (eBay id),

Opinion: China's reduced tariffs will have positive impact for American businesses
EDITOR'S NOTE: Boris Epshteyn formerly served as a Senior Advisor to the Trump Campaign and served in the White House as Special Assistant to The President and Assistant Communications Director for Surrogate Operations.
WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) - We are now seeing concrete, positive results for American businesses and the economy as a result of President Trump's recent trip to Asia and the administration's efforts overall.
As of December 1, the Chinese Ministry of Finance announced a major drop in tariffs. Chinese tariffs on 187 product categories will be drastically reduced - from an average of 17.3% down to an average of 7.7%.
A tariff is a tax that corporations pay to sell their goods in foreign countries.
For example, if an American company sells products in China worth $1000 it used to pay an average of $173 to the Chinese government and will now be paying an average of $77. That's a huge difference.
As a result of reduced tariffs American and multinational companies will take in more of the sales price, pay more in taxes in the U.S., keep more of the profit and therefore can grow and employ more people.
Here's the bottom line, while the media was focused on how President Trump fed fish or shook hands in Asia, the president secured real gains for American businesses in their trade with China. This progress is part of a concerted and ongoing effort by the president to make sure America is not taken advantage of on the international arena.

Gas prices? Pshaw! Who cares? It's Deutschland tuning day today on Jalopnik apparently as G-Power's just revealed the successor to their G-Power M5 Hurricane with the G-Power M6 Hurricane Convertible. While the M5 got the big 730 HP BI-Kompressor, G-Power's used some kind of radical German-Power technique they're calling "softcharging" to provide 635 HP for the drop-top. That's still up from the 507 HP in the "standard" 5.0-liter V10 under the hood of the "base" model M6. Full power details in the press release below the jump, and all this can be yours for a mere 183,000€ ($285,387). Yes, the "base" M6 is included. Well, after the Neiman Marcus M6 sold out in 92 seconds, we guess it makes sense to up the price on an up-charged version — you know, supply and demand.
FAST: G-POWER M6 HURRICANE Convertible with 635hp
One of the world's fastest and most powerful convertibles is made by G-POWER. 635hp and 635 Nm torque; these are the attributes of the latest G-POWER development for the BMW M6.
Being a straight offshoot from the legendary G-POWER M5 HURRICANE BI-Kompressor system with 730hp, the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system EVOI is a less radical alternative to achieve the desired increase in power output for all current V10 engines coming from the M-GmbH.
Thanks to the so called G-POWER "softcharging" technique, featuring a relative boost of 0,4 bar, the additional stress and wear for the engine and drivetrain is kept to a minimum, despite of the impressive increase in power output. Especially the acceleration performance in mid range, a weak point of the fast-revving concept favored by the engineers of the M-GmbH, underlines the dominance of the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system. Equipped with the G-POWER BI-Kompressor EVOI system the BMW M6 is finally capable of that superior performance characteristic most customers would have expected from the beginning.
Acceleration performance benefits from the perfect performance characteristic of the G-POWER equipped V10 engine accordingly. With a sprint time from rest to 100 km/h of 4.6 seconds and to 200 km/h in 11,9 seconds the 2-ton convertible accelerates like a true sports car. The 300-km/h barrier is shattered after 34,5 seconds from standstill. Contrary to the production car the G-POWER M6 HURRICANE convertible is not limited electronically to a top speed of 250 km/h but to 320 km/h. The determining factors therefore are weight, tyres and most important the soft top of the M6 convertible.
The G-POWER M6 HURRICANE convertible is available as a fully converted car starting at 183,000 Euros. Any existing M6 - sedan and wagon - can also be upgraded with the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system EVOI along with numerous items from the extensive G-POWER tuning accessories lineup. For M6 coupé drivers only is the 730 hp version of the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system available as well.
