Tucson, Arizona$100,000
As the designated arts agency for the City of Tucson and Pima County, the Tucson Pima Arts Council (TPAC) enhances local culture through activities such as direct funding, public art projects, community engagement, and technical assistance.
TPAC's Our Town grant will support cultural asset mapping and community engagement for Tucson's Historic Warehouse Arts District. The mapping process will include an inventory of the local creative economy in the Warehouse Arts Triangle and an analysis of the economic, real estate, and social impact of arts and cultural activity in this area. Project partners will collaborate with the community to identify potential neighborhood-centered arts and cultural spaces. All data gathered during the project will be integrated into the PLACE (People, Land, Arts, Culture, and Engagement) Initiative, an element of the Pima Cultural Plan created in 2008 for the region that measures civic impact. The Tucson Warehouse Historic District was listed in 1999 on the National Register of Historic Places and will be the site of a four mile-long modern streetcar line that is to begin construction in late 2011. The district is in the process of becoming an arts and cultural destination for Tucson's 520,000 residents.

text: A Centre for Addiction and Mental Health study for Big Brothers Big Sisters revealed that girls with a Big Sister were four times less likely to bully, fight, lie or express anger than girls without a mentor. Brampton resident Meghan Crook, 22, is not surprised. Nine years ago, when Crook was matched with her Big Sister, Donna Coulson, she was troubled, anorexic and prone to bullying. Coulson's presence in Crook's life transformed the rebellious teenager and nudged her into believing in herself as opposed to relying on others for approval. "I was a bully because I was being bullied," Crook said. "Having a mentor changed me. It made me want to grow up. When you don't have a good self-esteem, things get to you. I didn't know better..." So, when Crook's eating disorder spiraled out of control and she had to be hospitalized, Coulson stood by her. "Donna was the only person who came to visit me at the hospital," said Crook, who recently slipped into the role of a Big Sister herself. "She helped me see who I really was when I couldn't see it myself." The five-year CAMH study, which tracked 1,000 children and teenagers with BBBS agencies across Canada, was funded by a $1.7 million grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. With Big Brothers Big Sisters turning 100 this year, the results of the largest mentoring study ever to be conducted in Canada help validate how mentoring changes the lives of young people, said BBBS officials. Dr. David DeWit, a senior research scientist at the CAMH, and Dr. Ellen Lipman, a psychiatrist and professor at McMaster University, led the study. "We showed that the positive findings held regardless of the children's age, personal history, family circumstances or cultural identity," explained DeWit. "Over time, Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies will be able to counsel mentors on how best to engage with their 'Little' and will make it easier to identify the children most likely to benefit from having a mentor." Other findings of the research include: • boys with a Big Brother are three times less likely than boys without a mentor to suffer peer pressure-related anxiety, such as worrying about what other children think or say about them • mentored boys are two times more likely to believe that school is fun and that doing well academically is important • mentored boys are two times less likely than non-mentored boys to develop negative conducts like bullying, fighting, lying, cheating, losing their temper or expressing anger For more information, visit www.bbbspeel.com.

Insomnia - Lack of sleep can lead to weight gain, diabetes.
Do you sleep well each night. Do you get your 8 hours and awake feeling refreshed...ready to take on the challenges of the day?
If you answered no to these questions then you are far from alone.
- It is estimated that insomnia and poor sleep affect approximatley 1 in 8 of us at any given time.
- We are sleeping on average 20% less than we did 100 years ago.
- 1 in 3 people suffer from some form of insomnia in their lifetime
- There seems to be a strong hereditary link amongst insomnia sufferers
- There is a strong increase in children suffering from insomnia realted issues
What has been found is that poor sleep and sleep deprivation leads to metabolic and endocrine imbalances.
In fact it was found that 4 nights of shortenend interupted sleep gave rise to
- an increase of approximately 25% in insulin ressistance - a significant component in Type 2 Diabetes
- as well as to decreased leptin levels (which influences hunger regulation) to the point where we feel as if we are missing out on 1000 calories less than actually consumed. That is we are left feeling hungry and are liable to overeat by 1000 calories!
Clinical Research
In her study, Van Cauter demonstrated lack of slow-wave or Delta-rhythm sleep affects metabolism and appetite to such an extent that previously healthy 20 year old blood sugar and insulin parameters can reach pre-diabetic levels in as little as 4 nights.
Van Cauter also showed the bodies of sleep deprived study participants produced less of the appetite-suppressing hormone called leptin that tells the body ít is not hungry.
In fact men who were allowed only four hours of sleep per night displayed a dip in leptin that was equivalent to that seen in people underfed by a thousand calories a day for three days.
In other words, the leptin signal was telling the men's bodies that they were short about a thousand calories. That misleading signal could cue the body to slow metabolism, overstimulate appetite, and increase fat deposition, This can lead to overeating and weight gain!
In other words, the leptin signal was telling the men's bodies that they were short about a thousand calories. That misleading signal could cue the body to slow metabolism, overstimulate appetite, and increase fat deposition, This can lead to overeating and weight gain!
What does this mean?
All this reasearch means that mum was quite correct - it is important to get our 8 hours sleep per night. A good nights sleep is vital for good health and in particular for regulating our weight and assisting with our ability to maintian good blood sugar levels.
How can we get a good nights sleep?
One of the first principles of good sleep involves the practice of good sleep hygeine.
Good sleep hygeine involves a group of rules that we should follow to develop good sleep habits.
These includes developing a sleep routine
- going to bed at the same time each night
- have a pre sleep routine that allows your body and mind to slow down as it readies for sleep
- using the bedroom and bed for sleep only (ie no TV in bed)
- avoiding stimulants like coffee, chocolate, heavy exercise for 2 hours prior to sleep
- exercising for 30 minutes each day but not within 4 hours of going to sleep
See below for more information.

All I hear is the soft ticking of a clock, the purr of air flowing into our hospital room and the gentle clicks of my laptop keyboard. Just a few feet away, the two most important women in my life — my wife, Jess, and my new daughter, Aria — are catching some much-deserved sleep.
The two are exhausted — understandably so. It's been a long 24 hours since Jess and I packed up the car, kissed our son, Lyric, good-bye and drove to the hospital to meet our baby girl. I probably should be trying to sleep as well, but just like when Lyric was born 20 months ago, my head is spinning.
If I sat here without thinking too hard, I probably could outpour a disjointed novel from all the images and words bouncing around in my brain. I won't forget the day we found out she was a girl — I felt like doing cartwheels right there in the doctor's office. I won't forget the moment Aria arrived into this world — she was more beautiful than my mind imagined. I won't forget the first time I held her — I kissed her forehead as I took her to meet her mom.
Rain pelts the roof outside our window, and a bone-chilling gray is painted across the sky. Even without looking at the forecast, I know it's bitter out there. Our doctor tells me it's supposed to be the coldest weekend of what some are calling the Great Florida Freeze of 2010.
But on this side of the glass, it is as warm as a summer afternoon on the beach.
On-time arrival
Unlike Lyric, who bounded into the world with a bang — five-and-one-half weeks early and a panicked drive to the hospital at 4 a.m. — Aria arrived exactly on schedule, waiting patiently for our Jan. 8 scheduled C-section.
We arrive at 9:30 a.m. to Bayfront Medical Center with Jess' hospital bag packed, all our forms signed and our son in the capable hands of my generous stepmother and sister, who each spent a week of their vacation to help us.
The nurse ushers us into the prep room. A small TV mounted on the wall is playing a marathon of bad Jean-Claude Van Damme movies as we complete more forms, and Jess endures blood draws and other preliminary tests. The wait for our noon delivery is excruciating. I swear the second hand on the clock is ticking more slowly here.
An anesthesiologist greets us, followed by another nurse and then a tech. Jess drinks something sour. We sign more forms. Jean-Claude slow-mo kicks about a million desperate actors in the face — some more than once. Finally, just after noon, a nurse tells us it's time.
I have a camera in one hand and an audio recorder in the other when they call me into the operating room. The music of Wilco — one of my favorite bands — is playing on the stereo, adding a bit of comfort under all the beeps, vacuums and other unfamiliar sounds.
Our doctors marvel at how well my wife has healed following the last C-section.
"Don't mind us!" they joke from the other side of the curtain.
Then, almost without warning, we see two hands holding our daughter up and over.
Daddy's little girl is here.
I fumble around for my camera and snap frame after frame as the nurse cleans her off. My hand is shaky as I clumsily cut the cord. The nurse hands her to me, and I bring her to Jess. After hefting Lyric around, Aria's 7 pounds seem so light.
So fragile.
What's in a name?
After naming our son Lyric, almost everyone we know had some musical suggestion for our daughter's name. Most went the obvious route — Melody, Harmony or Carol — but just as with Lyric, we had something a little different in mind.
Some early considerations included Story and Echo. But in the end, we went with Aria. In musical terms, an aria is a solo vocal piece with accompaniment. It's a performance in which the singer stands on stage and captivates the audience on her own. It's strong, carries honor.
And who knows? Time will tell whether Aria will desire the spotlight. But she does share her birthday with Elvis Presley …
Budding music career aside, Aria is about as perfect as we could imagine. So far, she's breastfeeding like a pro and loves to cuddle (especially with mom). Every once in a while, she'll open her eyes to catch a peek of the world. We can't tell yet whether she looks more like Jess or me. It doesn't matter — my heart melts with every mumble as she lies swaddled.
One father's feelings
As strange as it sounds, I never imagined myself having a boy until Lyric came. Whenever I thought of being a father, it always was to a little girl. Don't get me wrong: I have plenty of plans for my big boy. But this softie always dreamt of making those memories a father only can have with his daughter: twirling her at her school's father-daughter dance; chasing off her first boyfriend with a shotgun; giving her away at her wedding.
All clichés aside, I realize my primary duty as her father is to teach her what a man is supposed to be. That terrifies me. I'm not sure myself what a man is and certainly not confident that I'm the right teacher. Ultimately, she'll compare any male in her life to me; I hope my example is good enough.
Parents of multiple children always say their love for each isn't more or less — just different. At this point, that's tough for me to understand. My first instinct with Lyric and now Aria is one of protection, and in that regard, my love is exactly the same. I suppose as Aria grows and her personality develops, we'll learn to love her for specific reasons.
But right now, on this day, my love for them is simple, succinct. They're my world. They're the most important accomplishments of my life.
They're my kids.

Researchers and forecasters often study sea surface temperatures for an indication of hurricane potential. Scientists say above normal Atlantic Ocean temperatures is one reason for the "above normal" hurricane forecast. Hurricanes convert heat from the tropical atmosphere and oceans to wind and waves, just as a car engine converts gasoline into motion.

Northanger Abbey
Average rating | ||
Based on 151 Ratings and 151 Reviews |
Book Description
Though Northanger Abbey is one of Jane Austen's earliest novels, it was not published until after her death--well after she'd established her reputation with works such as Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Sense and Sensibility. Of all her novels, this one is the most explicitly literary in that it is primarily concerned with books and with readers. In it, Austen skewers the novelistic excesses of ... More

If you can't change the world, change your world
Small steps out of the norm can make a big difference
Sunday I reached a milestone in life … I turned 30! I am surprised how many people my age, male and female, are having a difficult time turning the big 3-0 when it honestly doesn't bother me. I'm excited to see what the next 30 years have in store for me. It got me thinking whether or not I've had an impact on others in the years I've been given.
Although I like to think I have, it's easy for me to look around and see people who seem to have achieved far more greatness than I can ever hope to achieve. I often assume I have to do something worthy of a Nobel Prize to impact others. The fact is you can make a difference in the lives of others by being good at your job, being a loving parent or being compassionate and caring to those around you.

I woke up at 7am this morning and was at a complete loss as to what to do with the day. So I scrounged around in my cupboard of material and found some left overs from a school production about four years ago. I had made a list of things I want to make before I start work next week and I figured that these would be fairly simple to make without a pattern. I then found my mum's bag of polar fleece and spent a couple of hours working out how I could make these unloved bits of fabric into something wearable.
I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. It is super warm!
Scraps, scraps and more scraps. The inside (the polar fleece) is striped because I had to sew several pieces together to make one big enough for the inside.

Zombie Run is advanced training for the coming Zombie Apocalypse. Participants will use speed, agility, and their intact brains to overcome obstacles and avoid flesh-eating Zombies.
Basic Survival
Before the race, you will be given a flag belt These flags represent your health.
- The zombies want to take your flags and maybe eat your brains.
- If you lose all your health flags, you die. And the zombies win.
What you are up against:
- Throughout the 5K obstacle race, there will be a series of man-made and natural obstacles for you to complete.
- There will be zombies. Their job is to chase you and eat you — but mainly go after your health, in the form of your flag belt. Avoid the zombies to keep your health flags.
- Use speed, strategy and your intact brains to make it to the FINISH LINE "alive" with at least ONE FLAG INTACT and the serum-giving plant.. If you finish with zero health flags, this means the zombies have successfully transformed you into the "undead".
How you will do it:
- There will be a start line, and a finish line, but what happens in between is up to you. There are multiple routes to reach the finish. Choose wisely, or your 5k might turn into a 10k.

Ohio State's band SLAUGHTERED Michigan's band. If this were a football game, it would have been Florida State vs. Savannah State. - SB Nation following OSU vs. UM 2012
I think the real test for the balance in his life will come when Ohio State loses a big game. it wasn't til he lost to Saban in that SEC title game that he really started having the major issues. I know other stuff was there before hand, but to me how he reacts when he has that first set back in a big game will be telling. Of course, maybe he never has that here!
ehh...I don't know, he also said it was a lot to do with micromanaging every aspect of football operations and he didn't really lean on his assistants to get stuff done. Plus the obsession with being perfect which he has said he understands is not possible and is at peace with now.
I really don't think he expected to go undefeated this season at all and would have been at peace with that. In addition to all of that his wife gives a lot of great insight into the last season at Florida that are very telling. For instance she said he would go 24 hours without eating and exercising regularly...all this has changed and was a part of his agreement.
You can see the Shelly Meyer interview on youtube and it's about 27 minutes long. (can't provide link as I'm at work.)

I like Brad Listi. He writes books, runs a online culture magazine, helps to make babies and is now the man behind a cracking new literary podcast.
I have asked him some questions.
SP: So, Brad, tell me about this new podcast of yours?
BL: It's called Other People. It's a twice-weekly, hour-long author interview show, available for free at iTunes or at Stitcher. It's me, talking to another author at length but the difference is that the main focus tends to be the author himself or herself, rather than the books. Which is to say: it's not a lit-crit show. There's not a lot of plot synopsis or quiet, intellectual discussion. It's more unruly than that. It's about the authors as human beings, in all of their messy glory.
SP: You describe the interviews as 'in-depth' and 'inappropriate'. How inappropriate? Do you say 'fuck' and 'shit' alot?
BL: Constantly. As much as possible.
SP: And do you ask questions about their sexual proclivities? Make romantic advances towards them?
BL: (Laughs.) I'm a married man, so I don't make any romantic advances. But I do ask plenty of sex questions for sure, particularly when I have guests like Jillian Lauren and Melissa Febos, both of whom have done sex work in the past and have written brilliant memoirs about the experience. When its germane to the author's life, or if it happens to come up naturally in conversation, I'm happy to go there. Sex is a big part of life. And people like to hear about it.
SP: What splendid authors have been your guests so far?
BL: Oh, man. I've had a ton of really great writers on the show. Jillian and Melissa, to name two. Dennis Cooper was just on. And David Shields, who wrote Reality Hunger; I just talked to him. He's a fascinating guy and a really interesting writer. Darin Strauss was great; he wrote Half a Life, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award here in the States. Jonathan Evison, Megan Boyle, Greg Olear, John Warner, Jessica Any Blau, Adam Levin, Shann Ray, Gina Frangello, Katie Arnoldi, Janet Reitman, Elissa Schappell. So many. The list goes on.
SP: And who do you have lined up?
BL: Well, in the short term I'm going to be talking with folks like Dana Spiotta, Jamal Joseph, Vanessa Veselka, Tayari Jones, Roxane Gay, D.R. Haney, and Alan Heathcock, just to name a few. A lot of good ones coming up.
SP: Dream guest?
BL: Gore Vidal in top form.
SP: Are you prepared to interview British authors?
BL: Hell yes.
SP: And if any publicists representing the superstars of international literature are reading this how would they go about getting their authors on your show?
BL: Just email me: letters [at] otherpeoplepod [dot] com.
SP: Do you remember writing a book called Attention. Deficit. Disorder? If so, please tell us about it.
BL: (Laughs.) I have vague recollections. Attention. Deficit. Disorder. is a novel I wrote in my twenties. It's about a young man coming to grips with the suicide death of an ex-girlfriend. A picaresque. A contemporary coming of age novel set against the backdrop of the information age. And the narrator, I should mention, is of average intelligence. That was important to me, to try and do that. To render him as utterly confused, and searching. Too many young narrators are wise beyond their years.
SP: And how much better is the UK cover than your American one?
BL: Loads better, I must say. The rubber cover in particular, on that limited edition hardback, is the ultimate favorite. A collector's item!
SP: What next, my good man?
BL: Well, I'm working on a new novel, when I can get to it. And I'm extremely busy with a one-year-old daughter. And with running The Nervous Breakdown, my online culture magazine and literary community. And the podcast as well. It's chaos. So hopefully I can keep it all going, while also managing to get some sleep here and there.
SP: Finally, can you recommend my readers a good book?
BL: I can't stop talking about Leaving the Atocha Station , by Ben Lerner. It's a short novel about a drug-addled American Fulbright poet living in Madrid. A superb book. And then another one is Nothing , by Blake Butler, which is about insomnia, among other things. And then there's Not that You Asked , an essay collection by Steve Almond, who is an incredibly funny and perceptive writer who deserves to have a massive readership. Any one of those three, and you're in good shape.
BRAD LISTI is the founder of The Nervous Breakdown, an online culture magazine and literary community that now includes TNB Books, an independent press specializing in literary fiction and nonfiction. He is the author of a novel called Attention. Deficit. Disorder., a Los Angeles Times bestseller, the executive producer of The Nervous Breakdown's podcast series, and the host of Other People with Brad Listi, a twice-weekly podcast featuring in-depth, inappropriate interviews with today's leading authors.

American struggles hurt U.S. Open ratings
- Last Updated: 12:34 PM, August 27, 2010
- Posted: 2:48 AM, August 27, 2010
Deciphering the health of a sport is never simple, but to judge the state of professional tennis in the United States leads to one glaring conclusion: The interest of the American public is directly related to the consistent success of American players.
No shock, really.
When the U.S. Open starts on Monday in Flushing Meadows, all parties involved with hosting the tournament will be rooting for some semblance of American success. That includes ESPN, which will be televising the first two rounds, and CBS, which will carry all the big matches down the stretch.
Count in that list, as well, the USTA. The governing body of the sport in the U.S. which runs the Open, has to look with discontent as Andy Roddick is the only American man seeded in the top 10, at No. 9. Just three other Americans are in the top 20 – John Isner (No. 18), Mardy Fish (19) and Sam Querrey (20).
"We in the tennis business and broadcast business, we'd like to see the Americans do well," said Patrick McEnroe, who used to work for CBS but is now a tennis commentator exclusively for ESPN, entering its second year of Open coverage. "Having your home players do well helps every country and creates an immediate spike in [TV] ratings."
The TV ratings for the U.S. Open are an interesting case, and can be rationalized to support many theories. The fact of the matter is that over the past six years — since Roger Federer's first U.S. Open win in 2004 — the ratings for CBS have dropped.
From 1999-2003, the average of all U.S. Open matches that aired on CBS drew 4,085,750 viewers, according to The Nielsen Company. Of the 10 men to play in those five finals' matches, seven were American (with Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras counting for five of the seven).
In the six years that followed, Federer won five consecutive times and then lost in the final last year to Argentinean Juan Martin del Potro. Only twice were Federer's opponents American — Agassi in 2005 and Roddick in 2006. During that span, the average audience on CBS was down to 2,561,833 viewers.
"I'm sure CBS would like the ratings to pick up," McEnroe said. "To move the needle ratings-wise, you need an American in there on the final weekend."
As the current captain of the U.S. Davis Cup team, McEnroe has a vested interest in the success of U.S. players. He also is working with the USTA in player development so that a rut like one American tennis is in now will not happen again.
But the health of the overall sport and the declining TV numbers are not necessarily linked. McEnroe said that participation in recreational tennis is up in the U.S., and that the U.S. Open is breaking records every year for increased ticket sales and sponsorships.
"The bigger story is how in all sports, everything has basically gone down [in TV ratings] across the board, except the NFL," McEnroe said. "It's the dilution of what's out there. It's actually kind of ironic that the Open, as an event, is prospering on every front."
If the Open is an event that's prospering now, it might have trouble in the near future. Since the modern Open era started in 1968, there never has been more than a five-year period when an American hasn't won.
We already are in the longest men's Open drought in American history (Roddick, in 2003, was the last American man to win the title), and it pains few people more than Patrick McEnroe's brother, four-time Open champion, John.
"Part of the reason I'm starting a tennis academy in New York is to bring a buzz back to our sport," said John, who works for CBS and grew up in Queens with his brother. "I don't want to say our sport needs [a successful American], but I definitely think it would help."
