Primary Election is Tuesday, June 3 – Last Minute Voting Tips [AUDIO]
Primary election day is Tuesday, June 3, and the Missoula County Elections Center is open at the Missoula County Fairgrounds to answer last-minute questions.
Chief Deputy of Elections and Recording for Missoula County, Rebecca Connors said last minute applications can be made at the fairgrounds.
"Those who have not voted absentee yet can come down to the elections center at the fairgrounds and request to receive a ballot before election day," Connors said. "We are encouraging anyone who wants to vote at their polling place to visit the website missoulavotes.com and go to the 'my voter' page where you can view directions to your polling place, and determine if your voter information is correct. We advise everyone to go check that out first before going to their polling place. There is a sample ballot available, as well."
Those who find themselves at the wrong polling place can receive assistance on election day.
"For those who don't find their names on their polling place register, our election judges are trained to put a call in to our office to make sure where the correct polling place is for them," Connors said. "If you're not registered at all, you should come to our elections center at the fairgrounds, where we will be open special hours from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. That way, we can catch any problems with registration before you actually go to the polling place to vote."
For election day itself, Connors has specific information for voters.
"Some identification is required before voting. There are two kinds that will work. One is a photo ID such as a Montana drivers license, or a post-secondary education photo ID. All that the state statute requires is a name and a photo. You could provide a utility bill from your current address, or if all else fails, we have a special form that all of our polling place managers are trained to use. The voter must supply their drivers license number or the last four digits of their social security number. The polling place manager can then call the office and have the information confirmed with the drivers license bureau."
Polling places will be open from 7 a.m. till 8 p.m. on Tuesday, June 3.

Quantum has downsized its enterprise DXi7500 deduplication product to the mid-range DXi6500, and given it Nehalem processing power and solid state storage.
The DXi7500 is a high-end deduplication product offering both in-line deduplication as data lands on the device or post-process deduplication after data has landed. The latter allows a faster transfer of backup data to the device.
The DXi7500 is for 5 to 40+TB of primary storage data whereas the DXi6500 is for 3 to 30TB, there being a fair degree of overlap. We would expect the 7500 product to be given a Nehalem and SSD refresh to widen the performance gap between it and this new box.
There are five pre-configured and user-installable turnkey models of the DXi6500, ranging from the 6510, through the 6520, 6530, and 6540, on to the top-end 6550. All models come with dual quad-core Nehalem processors, with a NAS interface, OST support, replication and 1Gbit/E. The 6510 has two 1gigE ports and 8TB of disk storage. This disk storage is based on 1TB drives with RAID 6 protection and an online spare. The 6520 gives users six 1gigE ports and 8 to 32TB of capacity.
The 6530 has 24 to 56TB of storage and the same number of gigE ports. The 6540 is the same but with two 8Gbit/s Fibre Channel ports for writing backup data direct to tape. The 6550 is the highest-performing product and offers two 1gigE ports and two 10gigE ports alongside the two Fibre Channel ports.
Quantum says the range includes solid state drive (SSD) support. All the five have SSD, in both the System node and in the optional disk arrays. There are four 64GB Intel SSDs in the system node, in a Raid 1 configuration, and two 64GB SSDs, also in a RAID 1 configuration, in each disk array. A Quantum spokesperson said: "The DXi7500 is a VTL-centric Enterprise Array scaling from 11TB to 220TB of usable capacity. All licences, both capacity and functional, are included with the DXi6500, whereas the DXi7500 is licensed separately for Dedupe capacity allowing the customer to use the unit as a native VTL if they wish."
Quantum compares the DXi6500 to industry leader Data Domain's DD660, saying the EMC box tops out at 22TB raw storage, has an equal 2TB/hour data ingest rate, lacks a direct path to tape, and is vastly more expensive with a starting price around $140,000.
The DXi6500 has an MSRP of $64,000. The 6510 and 6520 will be available in November, with the other models coming along in the first quarter of 2010. ®

NIGC to Exhibit at cippe 2018 to Seek Cooperation with Chinese Companies on Natural Gas
Posted by fidest press agency su martedì, 30 gennaio 2018
Beijing. The 18th China International Petroleum & Petrochemical Technology and Equipment Exhibition (cippe 2018) will open on March 27-29, 2018 at New China International Exhibition Centre in Beijing, with an exhibition area reaching 90,000m2 and around 1,800 exhibitors coming from 65 countries and regions, including 46 Fortune Global 500 companies and 18 international delegations. The National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) will seize this opportunity to explore natural gas cooperation opportunities with Chinese enterprises.
Rich in petroleum resources, Iran has the fourth largest petroleum and second largest natural gas reserves. According to BP, Iran boasts around 34 trillion cubic meters of natural gas reserve, ranking the first place in the world. By 2022, Iran plans to increase its gas export to 40 billion cubic meters, excluding liquefied natural gas export.China is the third largest natural gas consumer, only next to US and Russia. However, China has to import 40% of its natural gas due to the insufficient domestic output.
As China has been actively implementing the "coal-to-gas" policy in recent years, the demand for petroleum, natural gas and other clean energy is continuously increasing, which requires international engagement. The "Belt and Road" countries, especially Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, UAE, Qatar and Kuwait, are rich in oil and gas resources and have very promising prospects in their cooperation with China.
cippe 2018 will see 18 international exhibitor delegations coming from USA, Canada, Germany, Russia, Scotland, Britain, France, Italy, Korea, etc. Global giants including Gazprom, NIGC, Caterpillar, NOV, Schlumberger, GE, Honeywell, Rockwell, Cummins, API, 3M, MTU, ARIEL, Atlas and Hempel have confirmed to exhibit.Chinese companies will include CNPC, Sinopec, CNOOC, CSSC, CSIC, CASC, CIMC, Jereh, Kerui, RG Petro-Machinery, Sany Heavy Industry, Jerrywon, Anton Oilfield, Shanghai Shenkai, Tiehu Petromachinery, West Petroleum Equipment, Ganergy Heavy Industry Group, etc.Meanwhile, supporting activities such as cippe 2018 Embassy (Oil & Gas) Promotion Conference, and cippe 2018 Business Matchmaking Meeting will be held to facilitate exhibitors and buyers to reach deals and establish partnerships.cippe 2018 will be a great platform for overseas enterprises to explore Chinese oil market and seek cooperation with global oil heavyweights.

The test is performed by scratching the surface of the tile with different minerals and subjectively assigning a Method of Hardness "MOH's" number to the glaze. The softest mineral used is talc (a #1 rating if no scratch), the hardest is a diamond (a #10 rating if no scratch). Other minerals of varying hardness that provide MOH's values of five or greater are suitable for most residential floor applications while a value of seven or greater is normally recommended for commercial applications.

HAMPTON - If you're expecting a run-of-the-mill beer tour when stopping by the Smuttynose Brewery, you're in for a surprise. The company's new brewery on 105 Towle Farm Rd. in Hampton is the perfect place to shop, tour, eat, and, of course, drink.
Smuttynose scouted several locations before deciding Hampton was the ideal spot back in 2008. Peter Egelston, the company's founder, spent $24 million creating his dream brewery, and as a visitor, you can see why.
If you've visited Smuttynose on Heritage Avenue in Portsmouth, this new location will be a sight for sore eyes. Not only is the building 15,000 square feet bigger (from 25,000 to 40,000 square feet), it's located on one of the oldest farms in the area, which creates a striking backdrop. The 14-acre farm also holds a fruit orchard, complete with cherry, apple, and peach trees, and several colonies of bees.
Avid drinkers of the brewery's most popular beer, the Finestkind IPA, will recognize the vintage Pontiac Chieftain trailer from the label right when you drive in. This was hauled in from Maine and will be converted into a beer garden by 2015. A 9-hole disc golf course will also be added to the grounds in 2015.
That's not all: An 1870's Victorian farmhouse on the property will be converted into a new restaurant, Hayseed, which will open this fall.
Just visiting for the beer? Don't worry, there's plenty for you to do, too.
Smuttynose has created a new automated 4-vessel brew house, and added a slew of state-of-the-art brewing equipment. This has allowed the company to increase capacity from 40,000 barrels a year to 60,000 or 65,000. There is capacity in the new space to double capacity as future growth requires.
With the extra space, Smuttynose has more room to do what they do best: Create unique and flavorful brews. Visitors can try a classic like the Shoal's Pale Ale as well as the brewery's new Bouncy House IPA, which offers big hop flavor without the high alcohol content. Their Vunderbar Pilsner, which was previously part of their "Now and Then" series, will be available full time starting in July. And this is just the beginning; the new space has allowed them to expand distribution to Michigan, Southern California, Puerto Rico, the UK, South Korea, and Germany. The company also has plans to distribute in Texas and Tennessee sometime in the future.
A new packaging system pumps out 250 bottles a minute, and has a brand new labeler. For Smuttynose fans who had come to love the crooked, crinkled labels, those are now a thing of the past. Every bottle will now feature a front and back label, both of which will be placed perfectly by new machine.
Smuttynose, which takes pride in keeping its beer unfiltered, has installed a new centrifuge, which essentially rotates the beer to separate the yeast from the beer. This will result in a cleaner, brighter brew and will eliminate the residue often found in the bottom your six-pack. Beer aficionados will find much more brewing technology to explore when stopping by.
Amazingly enough, all of this has been done with the hopes of obtaining LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) gold certification. The building has been designed with reusable materials, and has been outfitted with a storm water treatment system, LED-lit-on-demand lighting, and much more.
"You get one chance to build a new brewery. You really want to get it right. We're damn proud of it," Smuttynose spokesman JT Thompson said during a recent tour.
"We want people to come here and have a good time," he added.
If you want to stop by the new Smuttynose brewery, tours are available this summer on Monday-Wednesday from noon until 5:30 p.m., on Thursday from 11 a.m. until 5:30 p.m., Friday from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m.

Relying on a foundation of falsehoods
Late last week, Mitt Romney ran into a little trouble on one of his biggest vulnerabilities. Campaigning in Ohio, the Republican said he'd seen a story that Jeep may be moving "all production to China." Romney wasn't telling the truth, as Chrysler itself made clear.
When most candidates get caught telling a falsehood like this, they have decide how best to minimize the damage, possibly with an apology. Romney, however, plays by his own set of rules – he turned the falsehood into a television ad airing in Ohio.
Everything about Romney's ad is deceptive, and he surely knows it. Jonathan Cohn tears the ad to shreds, but I'd just add a few related observations.
Note, for example, the way in which the ad weaves together clear falsehoods and claims that are technically accurate but wildly misleading. Romney has "a plan" to help the auto industry? If he does, he's hiding it well. Romney is supported by the Detroit News? The paper endorsed him, but called Romney's approach to the auto rescue "wrong-headed."
As for China, the ad leaves voters with the impression that Chrysler is moving operations abroad, which is plainly false. The company is going to build Jeeps in China for Chinese consumers, but American jobs are staying in America. Indeed, Chrysler is adding to the domestic workforce so it can – you guessed it – build more Jeeps here in the U.S.
Asked to defend the transparently deceptive ad, the Romney campaign referred Sam Stein to the Bloomberg News article the candidate referenced last week. But as everyone, including Romney and his aides, now knows, that's the right's interpretation of the article is wrong. But therein lies the trick: the Republican campaign just doesn't care.
Even for Mitt Romney, this level of mendacity borders on nauseating.
It's important, on a substantive level, for the public to understand that Romney is trying to mislead them about the underlying policy, but it's also important to appreciate the larger context: Romney simply doesn't respect voters enough to be honest with them. For the Republican candidate, it's an era of post-truth politics, in which he no longer even cares about getting caught lying.
As for why he's so eager to deliberately mislead the public, Obama's successful rescue of the American auto industry is a very difficult issue for Romney to deal with, especially in a state like Ohio that benefited so directly from the president's accomplishment.
Remember, when Obama initially gambled, Romney said we could "kiss the American automotive industry goodbye" if the administration's policy was implemented. At the time, Romney called the White House plan "tragic" and "a very sad circumstance for this country." He wrote an April 2009 piece in which he said Obama's plan "would make GM the living dead."
We now know, of course, that Romney was wrong and Obama was right. When the American auto industry, the backbone of the nation's manufacturing sector, stood at the brink of collapse, it was the president's rescue that worked, which was the opposite of what Romney said would happen.
Unsure how to proceed, Romney has been reduced to a gamble of his own: blatantly lying to voters and hoping to get away with it. In this specific case, it's just sad to see what this candidate is willing to do to advance his ambitions. In general, it reinforces a larger problem – as Rachel noted on "Meet the Press" yesterday, "There's been a truthfulness problem with the Romney campaign that connects even to the very basic issues."

DIYStyle Guest :: Jan Saunders Maresh
When I was asked to write Sewing for Dummies, I was thrilled and…I'll admit it…flattered. As part of the Dummies author group I rub elbows with experts on everything. Computer geeks of the tallest order like Andy Rathbone, Windows for Dummies (15 million books in print), to famous coaches — Notre Dame University's Richard "Digger" Phelps, Basketball for Dummies. But as I revel in that warm momentary glow, reality slaps me in the face as potential readers – sewers with years of experience tell me they are put-off by the title. After all, they don't consider themselves "dummies" and figure that a book like this is for beginners – which it is – and it isn't.
So let me clear this up. The Dummies formula is familiar to readers – a great resource presented with a sense of humor that breaks down a topic into bite-sized pieces. And here's the good news for readers who sew. Whether beginner or experienced – each chapter and each topic within each chapter is written as a standalone. So you don't need to read anything before or after that chapter or topic to understand it.
How do you use this in your everyday sewing projects? As you work through your next project and your next step is to sew a dart, edgestitch that pocket, or insert a zipper, flip to the topic in the book and see how I suggest you do it. My hope is that you'll read my words, hear my voice and find a better, easier way to get the job done. Keep the book next to you as you sew, make notes in the margin – use it to your heart's content. When you do, I hope that you, treasured reader, will understand that "Dummy" is a term of endearment.

Laptop Repair - Should You Use A Service Center?
People entering the field of computer repair need to do quite a bit of research to find all the tools they need to be able to fix the long list of problems that computers and laptops face. When I first started, I used to carry a huge toolkit full of all sorts of devices. The bag itself looked pretty impressive and had almost anything you might ever need. But as time went on, I discovered that 99% of the issues you need to resolve can be taken care of with just a basic set of technical equipment.
If you are going to perform laptop repair as well as desktop services, I recommend carrying a precision screwdriver tool kit. They cost somewhere around $10.00 and they are by far the most useful item I carry. Laptops and Macbooks especially tend to use really small screws to hold components together. Small torx screws are pretty much an entry barrier for new technicians who don't have the experience to know that they even needed a small torx screwdriver.
The second best tool for computer repair is a USB stick. You can store every single program you will ever need to troubleshoot a computer problem on one little stick. I store multiple types of anti-virus programs, anti-malware programs, rkill utilities, Hijackthis installations, popular browser install kits, data back up software, data transfer software and recovery programs. On top of storing your repair software, you can also use the USB key to transfer drivers and other files that you often need to download on-site.
While the USB stick and the precision screwdrivers will get your through 90% of your problems, you will need a very diverse kit for the remaining problems. You'll need to get a CD pouch full of operating system disks and manufacturer recovery disks. Don't forget that you'll need one of each kind for both 32bit and 64 bit operating systems. Then, you'll also need to carry a power supply tester for computer repair. On the laptop repair side, you will need to invest in a voltmeter to troubleshoot inverter problems and dc power jack issues.
Finally, the last additions to your toolkit will be standard technician items. Flashlights, measuring tape, thermal paste, electrical tape, extra screws and more... Most of these tools will rarely be used. But when you need them, you'll really wish you had them. As you get more comfortable doing computer repair, you'll be able to custom tailor your kit to your personal preferences. With enough experience, you might decide to add soldering iron and a heat gun for more advanced board level repairs.
Laptop Repair and Upgrade
The cyber-world is full of threats such as viruses, spyware, Trojans, Worms and etc. These can affect your PC and even steal your personal information. These cyber-threats can cause huge dilemmas to your PC. Always have an anti-virus guard installed. Upgrade the program and schedule regular updates. Your software's database should be updated for a full-protection.
Computer Screen Repair In Maricopa Arizona
In today's highly technological environment, which puts premium on accessibility and portability, the laptop computer is a very handy piece of equipment to have around. In fact, it would be safe to assume that most people in North America own a laptop. There are many reasons why a laptop computer is such a favorite tool among many people. Aside from the flexibility that it affords its users, it also enhances productivity because, should there be a need for it, one can check his or her files and work on them from almost virtually anywhere. In addition, a laptop computer basically enables a person to access the internet from nearly anywhere, which makes the flow of information quite fast and accessible. Due to these obvious benefits that laptop computers offer, it becomes imperative that your laptop is always in top shape. Otherwise, your productivity will be affected. For this reason, it would be to your advantage if you have a plan for laptop repair in the event that your laptop breaks down.
When your laptop computer breaks down, your default reaction most of the time is to go to a service center to have your laptop fixed. While the service center may be the traditional place for laptop repair, it is not always the best place under certain situations. Here are some of the reasons why the service centers are not advisable for laptop repair:
1. The repair of your laptop computer may not be prioritized. This is quite understandable because there are other clients that the service center is also catering to. If their units were brought to the center ahead of your laptop computer, naturally, theirs would have to be serviced first. Turnaround times at large or popular service centers could be anywhere from 1-2 weeks!
2. Service centers also tend to be among the most expensive places to have your computer fixed. With such a large overhead, the popular centers such as the big name computer stores have among the highest service charges for computer repair.
3. Poor quality of service. Due to the number of units that have to undergo laptop repair, the quality of service might be affected. Large centers deal with dozens and dozens of computers every week and can't afford to provide the same service quality as an independent technician.
Despite the above-mentioned disadvantages of using a service center for your laptop repair needs, do not be disheartened. There are other options that are available to you. In fact, if you search on Google, Yahoo, or Bing, you will discover that aside from these large service centers, there are other laptop repair providers that you can hire. Simply browse to the search engine of your choice and type in "laptop repair [your city]." You will see that there are plenty of other alternatives aside from large service centers. It is just a matter of being persistent enough in finding the perfect laptop repair service for you.
So, the next time that there are glitches in your laptop, you do not need to be worried. You can have your laptop fixed within a short period of time at a much lower cost than you would expect to pay at the big named stores.

I'm a newbie to ST, so this may sound like a basic question.
I have tried to look for a solution for this but have not been able to find one. Basically, I have a store and proxy setup to load JSON data. I wanted to see if there was a way to get value for fields that are outside the actual results array. I know we can set some properties like "totalProperty" and "messageProperty" and access these with ResultSet methods like "getTotal()" and "getMessage()". How about custom fields? Anyway to access those?
Below is an example of what I'm talking about. How can I setup my store/proxy/reader setup to be able to retrieve the values for "query_id" and "query_time"? I do not need to store these in a store or anything, I just need to capture these and store them in variables. I can use "totalProperty" and "messageProperty" to get the query_total and query_message.
Please let me know if I can provide any clarifications. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.Code:{ "success": true, "query_id": "ID-1234", "query_time": "19837382849", "query_total": "227", "query_message": "Successfully retrieved", "users": [ { "firstName": "Tommy", "lastName": "Maintz", "age": 24, "eyeColor": "green" }, { "firstName": "Aaron", "lastName": "Conran", "age": 26, "eyeColor": "blue" }, { "firstName": "Jamie", "lastName": "Avins", "age": 37, "eyeColor": "brown" } ] }

I have never heard of these until today. Never seen them advertised or anything. Very odd.
I've never experienced the pleasures of a Shamrock Shake in my entire life.Also, (and I don't know if I've ever mentioned this, but) I haven't eaten a McDonald's "hamburger" since April 2001 at a McDonald's inside a Wal-Mart store in Renton, Washington (final resting place of a certain Mr. Jimi Hendrix--the town, not the McDonald's inside the Wal-Mart). And even that was under duress.Perhaps I should rectify both sometime soon?

The Society of the Four Arts, Palm Beach's 76-year-old cultural institution, will be announcing its much-anticipated 2012-2013 season lineup of concerts, literary events, art exhibits, films and more next week. But in the meantime, Boca Raton asked the Society about its 2013 O'Keeffe Speaker Series, which regularly brings some of the biggest names in politics, art history and entertainment to Palm Beach. This year proved to be no exception.
Here's a preview of the speaker's lineup, more than a week before the official announcement. All lectures will take place at 3 p.m. on Tuesdays at 2 Four Arts Plaza, Palm Beach.
(Note: Four Arts members will be admitted free with their membership cards. Nonmember tickets to a live telecast of the speakers' presentations will go on sale for $15 one hour before the lecture begins. Book signings following the lectures, when applicable, are free and open to the public).
Jan. 8: Michael Beschloss: "America in the 21st Century: The American President and the Next Four Years."
No matter who wins the presidency for the next four years, presidential historian Beschloss will be there to document his tenure and situate it in its proper historic context. Beschloss has written books about Truman, Eisenhower and Lyndon B. Johnson, plus a tome about presidential courage spanning 200 years. His latest book, released this month, is "Jacqueline Kennedy: Historic Conversations on Life with John F. Kennedy."
Jan. 22: George Will: "America in the 21st Century: The Political Argument Today."
The Four Arts' political series continues with one of the luminaries of modern conservatism – or at least pre-Tea Party conservatism. An expert on politics, policy and baseball, Will is a Pulitzer Prize winner and a former editor of The National Review, who was once called "perhaps the most powerful journalist in America." He is the author, most recently, of "One Man's America: The Pleasures and Provocations of Our Singular Nation."
Jan. 29: Stanley Tucci: "An Afternoon With Stanley Tucci"
No specific topic is necessary for this guest, the most recognizable name on the Four Arts' speaker schedule. One of Hollywood's most in-demand character actors, Tucci has acted in more than 60 films in the past 27 years, including titles from John Huston, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Sam Mendes and Peter Jackson. He has also directed renowned independent films, has been nominated for an Oscar, Emmy and Grammy, and is an avid foodie whose "Tucci Cookbook" will be released in October.
Feb. 5: Marlene Strauss: "Andy Warhol: His Life and Art"
Art historian Marlene Strauss will make a rare Palm Beach visit to discuss the life, art and legacy of Andy Warhol, whose death reached a 25-year milestone this year. Strauss has lectured at such cultural institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Smithsonian Institute in Washington and the Art Institute of Chicago, but her speeches are not only for the art-collecting elite; she's known for relating art and artists to everyday life, bringing an infectious enthusiasm to her work.
Feb. 12: Norman Lamont: "The Crisis in the Eurozone: How It Affects America and the World"
It's not often we have a baron in our wings. OK, in Palm Beach it's probably more often than anywhere else, but nonetheless, Baron Lamont of Lerwick is a pretty big deal. A former Conservative MP, Lamont served as the Chancellor of the Exchequer in John Major's government from 1990 to 1993. An astute political mind who has authored three books, Lamont will address the Eurozone crisis and the economic instability overseas, issues that will surely be as pressing in February as they are now.
Feb. 19: Dennis Ross: "Myths, Illusions, and Peace: Finding a New Direction for America in the Middle East"
Speaking of issues that will be as relevant in five months – and five years – as they are now, Dennis Ross has the task of breaking down America's future Mideast policy in just about an hour, a topic that could extend to an entire college course. But if anyone can do so, it's Ross, a diplomat who has worked on Middle East issues for presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, and his vision includes a 12-step plan for Israelis and Palestinians to resume peace negotiations. His five books include the pertinent "Myths, Illusions and Peace."
Feb. 26: Eric Whitacre: "The Virtual Choir"
Composer and conductor Whitacre dreamed of being a rock star before a singing of Mozart's "Requiem" changed his life; he later graduated from Juilliard and has taken the classical music world by storm. A 2012 Grammy winner for his best-selling "Light & Gold," Whitacre has succeeded in democratizing classical music to a larger audience, thanks in part to the "Virtual Choir" project he'll be discussing here – which involves joining together thousands of voices from around the world in an online choir. So far, the project has received more than 3 million hits on the Web.
March 5: Douglas Brinkley: "Cronkite"
"The evening news isn't what is used to be." It's a refrain we've been hearing ad nauseum for years now, particularly since we lost Walter Cronkite in 2009. Historian and college professor Brinkley, a six-time recipient of the New York Times Notable Book of the Year honors, recently published the 832-page "Cronkite," the definitive account of Cronkite's life – and how the newscaster shaped and was shaped by the events around him. Chris Matthews, who knows a thing or two about presidential biographies, called it "majestic."
March 12: Judy Collins: "Sweet Judy Blue Eyes"
Iconic singer-songwriter Collins released her first album, 1961's "A Maid of Constant Sorrow," at age 22, and remains an active musician today, at 73. Along the way, she has built an eclectic repertoire of originals and cover songs, playing the music of everyone from the Beatles to Kurt Weill, and dabbling in folk, show tunes, pop, rock 'n' roll and standards. A Grammy-winning activist who represents for UNICEF and campaigns to abolish landmines, Collins will discuss her 2012 autobiography "Sweet Judy Blue Eyes: A Life in Music."
March 19: Renee Fleming: "An Afternoon with Renee Fleming"
There is apparently nothing Renee Fleming cannot sing. The soprano vocalist's repertoire ranges from Mozart to Arcade Fire to jazz and opera; she is fluent in three languages and has performed operas in six of them. A natural comedian as well as an uncannily talented singer, Fleming has appeared on "Sesame Street" and "A Prairie Home Companion." Her impressive list of albums is as long as a wine list at a gourmet restaurant, and most of them are just as vintage.
March 26: Sally Bedell Smith: "Elizabeth the Queen"
The last of several great historians edifying Four Arts visitors this season, Smith is a distinguished author who delves deeply into the lives of American and British political figures. Her previous subjects have been William S. Paley, the Kennedys, the Clintons and Princess Diana; her latest book is "Elizabeth the Queen: The Life of a Modern Monarch," exploring the public and private lives of Britain's much-scrutinized monarch.

Dane DeHaan is having a great year. After appearing on TV series like In Treatment and True Blood, DeHaan starred this year in Josh Trank's Chronicle, then acted alongside Shia LaBeouf and Tom Hardy in Lawless, and now he's one of the leads in director Derek Cianfrance's much buzzed about new film, The Place Beyond the Pines, which premiered to glowing reviews at this week's Toronto International Film Festival (watch two clips here). In addition, he recently wrapped on director John Krokidas' Kill Your Darlings, where he starred alongside Daniel Radcliffe and Elizabeth Olsen.
Shortly before the premiere of the film at TIFF, I sat down with DeHaan for an extended interview. We talked about the past year, how he prepares for his roles, what it was like to work for Cianfrance and make The Place Beyond the Pines, who he plays in Kill Your Darlings and what its about, and what he might have coming up. Hit the jump to watch.
- DeHaan has been enjoying the great reception for The Place Beyond the Pines.
- 0:40 – DeHaan is also enjoying his big year after Chronicle, Lawless, and now The Place Beyond the Pines.
- 1:20 – He first gets to script he tries to get into the mind of the character. For Place, he actually built the bike that his character rides in the movie.
- 2:40 – Pitches the movie as "having the gritty realism of Blue Valentine but being much more epic in plot." However, he doesn't want to talk about it too much because part of the experience is how it unfolds to a first-time viewer.
- 4:00 – DeHaan has not worked with anyone like Cianfrance before. The script is there so each actor knows what they need to achieve, but they can throw the script away if they think of a better way to reach that end result through improv.
- 5:30 – Cianfrance always shot a lot of takes. They do it once and talk about it. "What feels fake?" But they usually stayed under about 15 takes.
- 6:50 – There is a lot of stuff that they shot that didn't make it in the movie, especially since each scene was shot 15 different ways.
- 8:10 – Says his job is to act, and others' job to edit. He trusts Cianfrance enough to not worry about how his performance will be edited.
- 8:45 – DeHaan talks about Kill Your Darlings, "the story of how Allen Ginsberg became Allen Ginsberg." Daniel Radcliffe plays Ginsberg. DeHaan plays Lucien Carr, who introduced Ginsberg, Burroughs, and Kerouac to each other.
- 10:10 – He is reading a lot of scripts right now. He is looking to challenge himself and identify the people he wants to work with.

Guests at SeaWorld Orlando watched in horror Wednesday as a killer whale fatally attacked a trainer.Dawn Brancheau, 40, was explaining details of a frequently performed show at Shamu Stadium at 2 p.m. when the 12,000-pound male whale named Tilikum pulled her into the tank, where she drowned.About two dozen tourists witnessed the attack from above the tank and from an underwater viewing area, according to the Orlando Sentinel.Witnesses said the whale had grabbed Brancheau by the upper arm or waist. "He was thrashing her around pretty good," Victoria Biniak tells WKMG-TV. "It was violent."
Paramedics were called to the theme park but could not revive the woman, who was pronounced dead at the scene."It is with great sadness that I report one of our most experienced trainers has drowned in an incident with one of our whales," park manager Dan Brown says, according to the WKMG.

- "Do you hear my lady, Ser Dontos? From this day, you shall be my new fool."
- ―King Joffrey Baratheon
A fool or jester is a performer employed to provide entertainment to members of a King or lord's court.
Known fools
- {Dontos Hollard}, known as "Dontos the Red", a knight stripped of his title and forced into the role by King Joffrey Baratheon. Executed by a single crossbow bolt by the order of Lord Petyr Baelish, after aiding in Sansa Stark's escape from King's Landing.
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, there are several fools besides Dontos Hollard:
- Moon Boy, the other resident fool at the Red Keep
- Butterbumps, the obese fool of House Tyrell
- The mad Patchface, a former slave at Volantis, the court fool of Stannis Baratheon, who was purchased and made free by Lord Steffon Baratheon during the time of the Mad King
- Lord Walder Frey employs his own lackwit grandson, Aegon - son of Ser Stevron Frey - who is dubbed "Jinglebell".
Medieval societies were not "politically correct" by modern standards, and frequently forced the mentally and physically handicapped into demeaning positions as court jesters for the petty amusement of the court - often the term "court fool" literally referred to a "fool", i.e. mentally handicapped person. In Westeros and beyond, dwarfs are also often used as court jesters - unlike mentally handicapped fools such as Jinglebell Frey, dwarfs are physically but not mentally handicapped, which means they are often expected to come up with witty jests and japes to entertain the court. This is a demeaning position for the mentally/physically handicapped, but better than simply being left in the woods to die as an infant. Tyrion directly explains to Jon Snow that centuries of dwarfs serving as court fools and jesters have made people used to the idea that dwarfs can say whatever critical japes they want - the result being that Tyrion usually just says whatever witty insults happen to pop into his head, without fearing the repercussions.
Due to their lowly status, however, fools are often ignored by nobles at court, leaving them in the perfect position to overhear secrets. More than a few court fools at King's Landing are on the payroll of Littlefinger or Varys (or both).

My love affair with turquoise renews itself every spring, and I'm always so excited to rediscover it. I have a couple of weddings to go to this spring, and I have no idea what I am, or will be able to wear. So instead of focusing on the clothes, I'm building the outfits around the turquoise tear drop earrings above from Anthropologie. Just as fun!
Also, I wanted to thank everyone for all the well wishes! I feel so lucky to have so many vocal, supportive readers. You guys give me the warm fuzzies!

It's 2011.. like it or not and there is no time for laziness! Whatever you wanted to do in the past but continued to put it off 'til the next day and the next day became next week, then next month.. DO IT NOW!
Stop waiting for a handout. Don't expect people to always be there for you.. sad truth. Anything you want to accomplish will only happen if YOU put in the effort and dedication. Doors may close in your face but it's up to you to make the necessary adjustments and continue to move forward. Don't let rejection keep you from making a change in your life.. keep you from achieving success and satisfaction.
Consistency is the key. Without it, I guarantee you will not make it as far as you really could. Network. Travel. Hang with different crowds. If what you've been doing hasn't worked yet maybe that's a BIG HINT that you should be taking another route.
I challenge you to MAKE A CHANGE. It's 2011 baby!

I don't know about you, but ever since handing in my score sheet on Saturday afternoon after crushing all day at what easily qualifies as the most beautiful and bountiful bouldering crag I have ever visited, I have been obsessively refreshing the Triple Crown Bouldering Series website, eagerly awaiting to see the final competitor listing – and it's finally here: The results from the Triple Crown Bouldering Series competition at Hound Ears are officially posted!
But before I reveal how I placed, let's take a look back at my amazing weekend out at this unbelievable crag:
The adventure began early on Friday morning, as Niko and I left Tallahassee at 6:00 AM on the dot. We wound our way through Georgia and South Carolina before crossing the North Carolina state line early in the afternoon. After a few wrong turns, thanks to my newfangled Apple Maps app, we finally landed at Grandfather Campground.
I was expecting a huge crowd of climbers to be milling around already, but we ended up arriving before registration even began. We set up camp, feasted on delicious Indian food provided free from Triple Crown, and swiftly retreated to our tent to rest up for the big day.
Holy mother of climbers – I have never seen so many folks gathered at a single crag on a single day. Since Hound Ears is only open for public climbing during Triple Crown, the event was sold out. That means a total of 300 climbers were bussed from camp to the peak of the Hound Ears boulder field on Saturday morning. Epic.
Despite having spent the previous evening pouring over our printed guidebooks, Niko and I would have been completely lost without the guidance of an old Tally Rock Gym climber, Ben Wiant, who joined us for the competition with his wife. Along with two other Tally Rock Gym regulars, Monty and Sara, we trekked through the trails towards our first stop of the day: the Air Jesus boulder.
The group warmed up on a row of V0-V2s, and then we dove into a grueling day of crushing. Despite being slightly intimidated by the height of the magnificent Air Jesus boulder, I decided to hop on the V5 version of this classic climb, and sent it within three attempts. I immediately knew it was going to be a great day.
I also quickly realized that it wouldn't be such a great day for photography. When you're scurrying around an enormous crag trying to send 10 problems within less than seven hours, whipping out your camera loses priority, very fast. So excuse my not-so-epic pictures, oops.
Niko jumped on a sweet V9 called Air Satan (Low Start), but kept slipping off a slick foot on the top-out. He coulda, woulda, shoulda sent it, but it was early in the day, and we decided to come back to the climb later (which we never did, naturally).
The second part of the day day my favorite send, Bleed Me Out (V5). I was working another set of V5s called Satan's In The Tires and Body Disposal when one of the Triple Crown judges saw me climbing and insisted that I hop on Bleed Me Out. Frankly, I had already crossed that one off my list of problems I wanted to attempt, purely based on the wretched name.
The route starts on a very solid ledge, with not so great feet. You have to launch out and cross over to a microscopic crimp knob, which you have to match before delicately swinging your feet over and hurdle up to the next tiny crimp. My crux came at the last crimp before the top-out; it was literally invisible from the two non-existent crimps I was already on. I was terrified, but somehow reached up, locked my tiny fingers on the equally tiny hold, and cranked up to the top-out lip. The highlight of my trip was a feeling of absolute elation, which was amplified when I looked down and realized the judge was watching me the whole time. (Thank you wonderful lady for encouraging me to make the send!)
Our next little hike took us to one of the ultimate classics at Hound Ears, a highball V3 called Heretic. I took a little rest while watching the boys crush the huge moves on this towering problem, and cheered Niko on while he sent Unforgiven (V7). Yet again, the Triple Crown judges lent a helpful hand in revealing a hidden crimper that Niko hadn't been using during his first attempts. With this new bit of beta, he was able to quickly make the send. (Thank you Triple Crown for having such fantastic folks running the event!)
The last truly hardcore session was at the Lost and Found boulders, where I sent two V3s while Niko worked on a vicious V9 called The Brady Problem. It wasn't a send for him, but he did get to watch Jimmy Webb nonchalantly stroll up to the boulder, send the problem, and merrily stroll away. Pretty neat.
At this point in the day, we were wrecked from the sharp stone. We retreated to the main area in search of burritos (which we missed out on) and easier climbs to finish the day. After getting whooped by a V2 called Evil Slug, Niko convinced me to hop on a lippy V4 called The Anchor, which I miraculously sent despite an overeager spotter who literally talked me off the wall during my first attempt. I loved his enthusiasm, but couldn't focus on topping out the problem while he was shouting "Come on, come on, get it, get your foot up, crank up, crank over, let's go, do it!" relentlessly in my ear.
After that, I was completely drained. Who knew climbing 10 V3-V5 problems could be so daunting? I ended the day attempting a few V3 and V4 problems, but couldn't even lift myself off the ground – so I settled with my 10th score sheet listing, a V1, appropriately named "Lard Ass." I scored my signatures, surveyed my score sheet, and turned it in to the judges.
At the end of the day, I had no idea how my performance stacked up against the other lady competitors, but I had already won the battle against myself. With two V5s, a V4, and a handful of V3s, I had rocked my strongest day of climbing to date. I pleasantly enjoyed the remainder of the evening sipping beer and tequila/lemonade cocktails, gorging myself on barbeque provided by Triple Crown, and laughing at the wipeouts during the crash pad stacking contest.
When the winners were finally announced, I knew my name wouldn't be in the top 3 for women's intermediate, but my notions of where I might place were instantly crushed when the called out the name of the top climber, Alexa Russell. I had watched her climbing earlier in the day, and she crushed every V5 and V6 she got her hands on (keep in mind, we were competing in the V3-4 category) – and apparently, she's only 13! I didn't stand a chance.
Final verdict? I placed 15th in the Women's Intermediate.
Not too shabby for my first competition.
Overall, I am so satisfied with how the competition turned out. My month of training truly paid off, and I felt incredibly strong throughout the day. The biggest improvement I saw was with top-outs. I have never fearlessly mantled over a flat ledge before, and my confidence was sky-high during Hound Ears. Even on the V2s, I felt like a champion as I rocked my body over the boulders – I only beach whaled twice!
Next time, I'm going to incorporate more endurance training into my pre-competition workouts. Seriously, sending 10 problems (in seven short hours) at your limit is no easy feat folks.

See now they're only shooting a scene here on the New York set of Thanks For Sharing but, like, I totally buy that Gwyneth Paltrow would be into Mark Ruffalo and vice versa. The way she's touching her mouth while they're talking. The way they can't stop smiling. The way she's giving him a nice ass shot, "stretching" mid-conversation...
Works for me. Totally, totally works for me. They actually look really, really cute together.
You don't agree?
You hate her too much to agree?
I get that.
But can you arrive at a point where you might see that these two actors, accomplished ones, when they're faking a relationship, make it more believable than when those useless Kardashian people do it and front like it's for real?

If I left my coat in a taxi that was later impounded because, unknown to me, the driver was transporting heroin in the trunk, would I be left out in the cold?
People who used Megaupload to lawfully store and transfer files are rightfully upset that their stuff is unavailable after last week's raid. Some groups in other countries say they are going to sue the U.S. government. Would a lawsuit like that get anywhere in a U.S. court?
The Fifth Amendment — best known for its privilege against self-incrimination — says that "private property [shall not] be taken for public use, without just compensation". (You can impress your legally-trained friends at parties by confidently and casually referring to the Takings Clause.) Does the Takings Clause give innocent Megaupload users a right to be paid the value of the files they are being deprived of while the feds use the servers on which those files are stored to prove their case against Kim Dotcom and company?
Back in 2008, Ilya Somin and Orin Kerr had a conversation on the Volokh Conspiracy discussing this question of whether the Fifth Amendment protects innocent third parties who lose property in a criminal investigation. If you read that commentary you will see that a case over the Megaupload takedown might be tough for a number of esoteric reasons, not the least of which is Supreme Court precedent.
There are some face-value problems with a case like this as well. Has the government taken the property for a "public use"? One could argue that the reason the servers (including the innocent content) were seized was for the so-called public good of going after piracy. But then the innocent content is not being "used" in connection with the prosecution — it just happens to be there.
I do not pretend to know the answers to this inquiry, and I'm relying on sharper Constitutional minds than mine to leave some good comments. (If you know Ilya Somin or Orin Kerr, send them a link to this post!) All I know is that it does not seem fair that users of the cloud should so easily be deprived in the name of law enforcement.

A DeliciousTurkey Burger Recipe with Apples, Gruyere, and Sage Mayo That Changed My Life
Do you regularly cook foods for people in your family that you yourself don't eat? I do. Turkey burgers.
I just don't get it. Jeff was raised on good old fashioned beef patties. Yet, given the choice today, he invariably chooses turkey over beef. I, in contrast, am a 100% grass-fed beef kind of gal. I prefer beef's tender texture and rich flavor. With the right beef, a burger is delicious even without condiments. (Not that I'm suggesting you do that.)
So when we have burgers, I usually make Jeff a turkey burger and me a hamburger. The last turkey burger I made for him, I topped with sauteed apples, Gruyere cheese, and sage mayo.
After the first bite, he said, "Oh, God, this is good."
I nodded, smiled, and took a big bite out of my hamburger. He took another bite. "Sue, seriously, you've gotta taste this turkey burger. It's awesome."
"But, I don't like turk--"
"Just one bite. Come on."
I took a small bite. It was a revelation! I liked it. I took a larger bite. I loved it! The warm, tart apples, sweet, salty Gruyere, and creamy sage mayo made this turkey burger seem, well, not like a turkey burger. I took a bigger bite.
"Um, how much of my turkey burger are you gonna eat, hon?" Jeff asked me.
I slid the plate with my hamburger towards him, smiled, and took another bite of his turkey burger.
Delicious Turkey Burger with Apples, Gruyere, and Sage Mayo
Makes 2 burgers.
Print recipe only here.
I highly recommend washing down these turkey burgers with a cold, strong beer, such as Guinness or a good Ocktoberfest.
Sage Mayo:
2 tablespoons mayo
2 teaspoons stone ground or spicy mustard
3-4 small sage leaves, minced
10-12 ounces lean ground turkey
a generous amount of salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 small tart apple, thinly sliced, such as Granny Smith or Pink Lady
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces Gruyere cheese, thinly sliced
2 ciabatta rolls, or other rolls of your choice
1. In a small bowl, stir all ingredients for sage mayo; set aside.
2. Place turkey in a bowl. Season with several shakes of salt and black pepper. Mix in Dijon. Form two equal sized burgers. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 2 teaspoons olive oil. Add burgers. Cook 3-4 minutes per side, until browned on the outside and cooked all the way through.
3. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, warm remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil. Add onions. Saute 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add apples. Saute 3-5 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat.
4. Once burgers are almost done, top each with 1 ounce of cheese. To assemble burgers, spread half the sage mayo on the inside of a roll. Place burger on the bottom half of the roll, and top with half the onion-apple mixture. Close the sandwich. Repeat. Serve hot.

In my local markets, I'm seeing 93% fat-free and 99% fat free ground turkey. Would you use the 93%, so there would be a tiny bit of moisture in the turkey meat? That's the one I use for burgers; I use the 99% fat free in soups.

I recently began reading this blog and just wanted to say I made this last night for myself and my extremely picky, never tries new things, boyfriend. And it was a hit! I made the mayo from scratch - super easy and since we don't eat mayo regularly, just enough for the burgers and a bit left over. And the market I get my ciabatta rolls from was closed so instead I used a hearty whole grain english muffin. Easy and quick burger packed with a ton of flavor. Well done!

mmmm this is something i have to try!!
Lovely blog!!

My boyfriend who is so picky, only likes really spicy food and "doesn't like turkey burgers" said this may have been the tastiest thing I've ever made. I was waiting for him to complain about the dinner and he loved it! The rolls we bought were a little too tough, so that seems to be the only pitfall. This will certainly get added to the dinner rotation. Also I use pink lady apples (IMO the best apple ever) and added a bit of extra mustard, sage and a dash of cider vinegar to the mayo, and a little garlic and extra mustard to the turkey since we like our flavors pretty bold. AAAAAA-mazing.

History of the Big Basin Prairie Preserve
Big Basin Prairie Preserve is located in southwest Kansas, west of Ashland in Clark County. Big Basin is a natural, 100 foot deep circular, crater-like depression about a mile in diameter. Big Basin is listed on the National Register of Natural Landmarks.
The Preserve includes Little Basin which surrounds St. Jacob's Well, a natural sinkhole with a permanent, spring-fed pool of water. Big Basin and St. Jacob's Well were prominent landmarks used by Native Americans and early settlers. Archeological studies indicate that St. Jacob's Well has attracted travelers for many centuries, beginning with prehistoric peoples, then Native Americans, followed by non-native peoples and continuing through today. Nearly 300 Northern Cheyenne camped in the area in the fall of 1878 during the Northern Cheyenne Exodus as they traveled from Oklahoma to areas in Nebraska and Montana. The well was also used by drovers moving cattle from Texas to the Kansas railroads in the late 1800s.
Big Basin Prairie Preserve is home to herds of American bison allowed to graze as part of the natural process of maintaining the prairie ecosystem. Vehicles are allowed only on specified minimally-managed trails. Hiking is permitted, but visitors should not approach or harass the bison as they are wild animals and can be unpredictable. It is not possible to outrun a bison.

Local Motors recent brown bag was an inspiration to the spirit of tinkering. We are fortunate to have the best hacker space in Southwest inside Gangplank thanks to the hard work of HeatSync Labs. I think it would only be fitting if we added something for the gear heads as well. I know that HeatSync Labs would love to put some electronics in vehicles and the creatives among Gangplank would love to participate in great new advances in automotive. Many of them already love the such things. Mike Benner, Josh Strebel, Beau Frusetta and Chuck Reynolds are just a few that come to mind.
There happens to be an empty garage attached to the new Gangplank building. It makes me wonder if it's time to consider Gangplank Garage? What are your thoughts?

Spotify, the U.K.-based music-streaming site will eventually launch the service in the U.S., its CEO Daniel Ek said in an interview at D:Dive Into Mobile, but he wouldn't commit to a specific date. That's a step back from a previous promise to launch the service in the U.S. in 2010.
Asked specifically about a prior commitment to launch Spotify in the U.S. before the end of the year, Ek blamed the complexities of working with U.S. recording labels. "It's a business problem and a product problem at the same time."
He said he remains hopeful about launching in the U.S. "We are definitely going to do the U.S., you'll see. I'm here today….I can't commit to a specific date."
Ek said Spotify has about 750,000 customers in Europe who pay an average of 10 euros per month.
Asked if Spotify is raising money in order to perhaps put more on the table in negotiations with music labels, Ek said the company is not raising money right now. "But we won't rule it out."

text: Hey everyone, I've been working on a project with a friend of mine and we're trying to create a program that spits out information based on information about a situation that the user is currently in. We have all these things that have a certain probability to be chosen based on a score that we have created. We're trying to implement a system in which after all the situations are over the user will tell the computer whether or not the information it put out was good or bad. Based on this answer the computer will change the score of the sets of information that it chose so that it knows they worked in that situation. I'm decently new to java and I don't know of any way to permanently change a variable in a system without going in and changing it in the actual code. Does anyone have any tips?
