The charming musical Into the Woods turns its fairy tales inside out
Director Dustin Czarny likes big shows, and he has a habit of exceeding expectations and confounding his detractors. His breakthrough moment came four summers ago with Sherman Edwards' 1776 with Appleseed Productions, where he put two dozen singing men in knee breeches, and went on to collect a passel of People's Choice honors at the Syracuse New Times Syracuse Area Live Theater (SALT) awards.
Buoyed by continuing successes, he started his own outfit, Not Another Theater Company, 18 months ago, doing smaller-scale works as dinner theater items at the Locker Room's Fire and Ice Banquet Hall, 528 Hiawatha Blvd. Taking on a co-producer, Bill Brod, publisher of The New Times and Family Times, Czarny gained the resources for a really big show, eight musicians and 24 speaking and singing parts in Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods. It's playing at--where else?—the New Times Theater at the New York State Fairgrounds.
As the show begins, anyone can see and hear where the extra resources have gone. The set by Navroz Dabu, the hardest-working man in community theater, comes with a tower for Rapunzel, two raked runways, slippery enough for Cinderella's fall, and numerous hidden passages for rapid entrances and exits. The production staff cites more than 40 names, some doubling as cast members, who clearly have been kept busy for the last few weeks. Clothes designed by Deb Ritchey draw on the resources of CNY Costumes. This means the two princes look more like royalty than marching band members. Even the program is classier, with high resolution photos of cast members in character.
It's more than conspicuous consumption.
Contributing to the Little Red Ridinghood sequence is Grandma's vertical bed with a convenient hole cut for the head of the Wolf (Alex Cupelo) to poke through. Later when the Wolf is vanquished, a knife slit to the midsection allows the revived Red (Gina Ferrelli, who alternates with Marissa Pizzutto in some performances) and Granny (Patricia Elise Catchouny) to escape.
At the same time, Czarny has remained loyal to the coterie of techies and performers that have been gathering around him in the past few years. True, there are some new faces, apparently found through auditions, but most of the key players have been with him before, like the Baker and his Wife (Greg J. Hipius and Meghan Pearson), the Narrator (Lanny Freshman, alias Dr. Lanny from Family Times), and the nominal starring role of the Witch (Danan Tsan), who appeared in Czarny's 2009 A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum under the name of Danan Healy. Only for the role of Cinderella did Czarny import SALT winner Carmen Viviano- Crafts, a favorite of the Le Moyne Drama Department, who has previously appeared in another production of Into the Woods.
Czarny explains in a program note why Into the Woods has been important to him, citing a worn out VHS copy of the PBS production he watched with his daughter. We can deduce other motivations. For musical theater mavens, Stephen Sondheim has been the acknowledged master for the last generation. And with that comes the proviso that he does not play well in the provinces, and might indeed be box-office poison in Onondaga County, except for Forum and possibly Sweeney Todd. So quite apart from is own artistic merits, Into the Woods allows a company to aspire and give an audience a good time, too. It's family-friendly Sondheim.
Inspired by Bruno Bettelheim's still-read study of nursery tales, The Uses of Enchantment (1976), Sondheim and his frequent collaborator James Lapine draw elements from four traditional stories, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and Little Red Ridinghood (spelled that way in the original 1987 production), with references to others, like Sleeping Beauty. To this farrago they add the invented story of the childless Baker and his Wife who are hoping to start a family and so interact with characters from the other four. Sondheim and Lapine safely assume we know all the elements of the four traditional narratives, so that we know what a scold Jack's mother (Kathy Eggloff) can be. And as soon as all that is in place, Sondheim and Lapine are free to subvert, reverse or blend without fear of losing us.
To weave the narrative strands together, Sondheim and Lapine introduce a Narrator who tells us that each character, traditional and invented, begins with a wish. Lanny Freshman's crisp diction gives the narrator authority, but the actor's native impishness encourages us to expect irony. By the end of the joyous first act everyone has fulfilled his or her own wish, just as in fairy tales. In the second act, however, the old wishes are succeeded by new ones when the happy endings don't quite work out. Or as a Prince (Alex Cupelo) explains to Cinderella, "I was raised to be charming, not sincere."
The contrasting tones of the first and second acts as well as the nooks and crannies of the multiform, twisting plots mean that Sondheim has astonishingly wide opportunities for musical expression. This includes resplendent emotion, smashing the cliché that Sondheim is only bloodless and clever.
Musically and dramatically, the Witch has the most to do. Her transformation at the end of the first act, from a Halloween cartoon crone to a drop-dead, ice princess Nordic beauty, allows Danan Tsan to dominate any scene she ambles through. Her training at the Eastman School serves her well in the dissonant second-act solo, "Witch's Lament." Later her controlled power leads the ensemble in the affecting finale, "Children Will Listen."
Of the narrative threads the Cinderella story is continually the most arresting, with Carmen Viviano-Crafts' skilled delivery, notably leading "No One is Alone" toward the end of the second act, and her believable sad-sack char-girl. The comedy in this sequence comes from the snarling and hilarious Stepmother (Rebecca Hall) as well as those two cute step-dragons, Florinda (Wendy Viggiano) and Lucinda (Ceara Windhausen).
Unusual in this production, the role of the Baker's Wife becomes an invitation for scene stealing. Meghan Pearson, who also serves as Woods' choreographer, punches her modestly written gag lines to the max. Her two solos, "Maybe They're Magic" in the first act and "Moments in the Woods," in the second, are both show-stoppers. For Pearson, whose handling of the Appleseed Productions show Parade won the SALT award for Best Musical, May 2011 is turning out to be a very good month.
Not that her husband the Baker, played by Greg Hipius, is ever left behind. His earnest and sheepish portrayal of the frequently misused Baker, kind of the Charlie Brown of the show, is central to Czarny's vision of what the show is about. His duet with the disguised narrator, "No More," smoothes the show's tension toward resolution.
The two handsome Princes, Alex Cupelo and Liam Fitzpatrick, delight with the mockromantic duet, "Agony," on why "ever after" does not specify "happily."
Dustin Czarny wanted to show us that he was capable of more. With Into the Woods, he has topped himself again.
This production opens Thursday, May 12, with other weekend performances scheduled for Friday, May 13, Saturday, May 14, and Sunday, May 15. The show continues May 18- 22 and May 26-28. See Times Table for more information.
Once upon a time: Cast members of Into the Woods get into the spirit as Rapunzel, Little Red Ridinghood and other characters.

I spent the last three days shooting in Berlin together with my friend Shak. We hit a lot of interesting – sometimes even eerie – locations and what can I say? It was awesome! Here are a few of the pictures, follow the links to see more: Berlin Neon – on the way home one night, I noticed how the red neon signs contrasted with the deep blue sky. Just a few shots, but I like them.
A neon sign next to the Savignystraße S-Bahn station
Berlin Stasizentrale – this is the headquarters of the former east German secret service that spied on the east German people.
Meeting corner next to the office of the former Stasi chief
Berlin Alexanderplatz – one of the important squares in the former eastern part of Berlin, I've been there for the first time back in 1987 and I love the TV tower.

Berlin Concrete – the Berlin Holocaust Memorial is a rather recent addition to Berlin. Planned by Peter Eisenmann, it features 2711 concrete blocks and I could spend hours exploring what the light does to the shapes and angles.

Generally, female masturbation techniques fall into two types of g-spot and clitoral stimulation as: direct and indirect masturbation.

CSS - changing multiple ID's on hover
Hi all,
n00b alert!
I have this visual representation of a Mac keyboard written in CSS.
Now I'd like to make several keys 'light up' (by changing border color)
when I hover over a line of text with a certain class.
This way I'd like to visualize keyboard shortcuts.
Is this possible with CSS or should I do this in Javascript?
I'm confused. Suggestions welcome,
Overall, My personal opinion is to use JavaScript.Thanks Chris.Let me rephrase, just to be sure.
If I were to give each keyboard key a unique ID, can I change say the backgroundcolor of multiple ID's when I hover over a line of text?
I really don't know the CSS syntax for that.you could do something like#a:hover, #s:hover, #d:hover {background: #252525;}
edit: Actually this would only work if you hovered over the id not when you hover random text outside of the elementThanks Christopher.
So if I understand correctly, if I had a line of text in an unordered list beneath the Mac keyboard (something like 'force empty trash') with a unique ID (li id=forceemptytrash), and that line is hovered over, it's impossible to trigger changes in multiple ID's that are assigned to the keyboard's keys?
Hope I'm making myself clear...Yes it is very possible but what I did above will not work for that. I think for what you're trying to accomplish, javascript would be pretty helpfulChristopher,
Okidoki. I'll look into that - nice challenge!
Cheers.I could be wrong, hopefully someone else can come along for their inputIt should be pretty easy with JavaScript (recommend using jquery) as you have all of the buttons with unique id's. Just create hover functions for the li items that change the css of the buttons.I'm no jquery pro, but here's an example of something that works:

Electric vehicles (EV) now rolling off automakers' production lines are expensive and limited in range, but they mark a technological tipping point. By tapping into the smart grid, EVs promise to free transportation fuel from the physical medium—raising its practical value while simultaneously diminishing its cost.
For decades now, wind turbines have been generating electricity more cheaply than most other (non-hydro) renewable energy technologies. In particular, wind has maintained a comfortable lead over solar energy in the price-per-kWh race. That's destined to change.
During interviews for this month's cover story, "Customer Service: 2020," leaders in the world of back-office information technology (IT) spoke with Fortnightly about customer service and the smart grid. They came from companies as diverse as Oracle and Telus, HP and Convergys, Vertex and SAP. But whatever the company, whatever the discussion, almost every leader came around eventually to focus on a single agent of change—the rise of electric vehicles.
(March 2010) New Day for Prudence: I am sending this letter at the request of Robert Gruber, who is the executive director of the Public Staff-North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC), which is the state agency charged with representing the public in matters before the NCUC. In the article, "New Day for Prudence," the group that filed the quoted testimony is not "the Office of Public Counsel." It consists of a number of non-profits and associations that banded together and called themselves the Public Advocacy Groups for the purpose of intervening before the NCUC. We're also concerned because the article's description of the NCUC's ruling is erroneous.
Opinion polls show that Americans are growing tired of eco-nannyism. This isn't a new trend, but on February 7 it went prime-time, during the biggest TV event of the year: Superbowl XLIV.
Those who don't embrace new technologies will get left behind when the world changes around them. This is true across generations and across industries. At the same time, however, the telecom revolution offers a cautionary lesson about what motivates consumers and how it translates into business opportunities.
At the Power-Gen International trade show in December, Questar Chairman & CEO Keith Rattie delivered a firebrand speech opposing the prospect of CO2 cap-and-trade legislation. To summarize, he said the Waxman-Markey climate bill is an "asinine" piece of legislation—which it is, as anyone who reads it quickly discovers. But more broadly, he said concerns about greenhouse gases (GHG) are based on incomplete science and politically motivated alarmism.
When Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) announced legislation in November 2009 aimed at doubling America's nuclear power capacity within 20 years, he compared the clean-energy challenge to fighting a war. "If we were going to war, we wouldn't mothball our nuclear navy and start subsidizing sailboats," he told attendees at the American Nuclear Society's winter meeting. "If addressing climate change and creating low-cost, reliable energy are national imperatives, we shouldn't stop building nuclear plants and start subsidizing windmills."

South by Southwest (SXSW) is a set of film, interactive, and music festivals and conferences that take place every spring (usually in March) in Austin, Texas, United States. It began in 1987, and has continued to grow in size every year. In 2011, the conference lasted for 10 days, with SXSW Interactive lasting for five, Music for six, and Film running concurrently for nine days.
South by Southwest is run by a company, called SXSW Inc., that plans and executes conferences, trade shows, festivals and other events.[1] In addition to the three main South by Southwest festivals, the company runs two other conferences, both also in Austin: SXSWedu, a conference on educational innovation,[2] and SXSW Eco, an environmental conference, both since 2011.[3]

SXSW Music Festival[edit]
SXSW Music is the largest music festival of its kind in the world, with more than 2,200 "official" performers and bands playing in more than 100 venues.[citation needed] SXSW Music offers artist-provided music and video samples of featured artists at each festival via their official YouTube channel.[4][5]
The music event has grown from 700 registrants in 1987 to nearly 12,000 registrants. SXSW Film and SXSW Interactive events have grown every year, most recently bringing around 15,000 to 20,000 registrants to Austin every March.[6]
SXSW Film Festival[edit]
SXSW Film is a film festival, focusing on new directing talent.[7]
SXSW Interactive Festival[edit]
SXSW Interactive is focused on emerging technology, a focus which has earned the festival a reputation as a breeding ground for new ideas and creative technologies.[8] According to a festival organizer Louis Black, SXSW Interactive "has probably been the biggest of its kind in the world" since 2007.[9]
In July 1986, the organizers of the New York City music festival New Music Seminar contacted Roland Swenson, a staffer at the alternative weekly The Austin Chronicle, about organizing an extension of that festival into Austin. The plans did not materialize, so Swenson decided to instead co-organize a local music festival, with the help of two other people at the Chronicle: editor and co-founder Louis Black, and publisher Nick Barbaro. Louis Meyers, a booking agent and musician, was also brought on board.[10] Black came up with the name, as a play on the name of the Alfred Hitchcock film North by Northwest. The event was first held in March 1987. The organizers considered it a regional event and expected around 150 attendees to show up, but over 700 came, and according to Black "it was national almost immediately."[9]
Meyers left Austin and the festival in the early 1990s, but Black, Barbaro and Swenson remained the festival's key organizers as of 2010.[9]
Singer-songwriter Michelle Shocked was the keynote speaker at the 1992 South by Southwest. She caused controversy by delivering a speech, written by her then-husband Bart Bull, criticizing white musicians for stealing music from African-American artists; and then later during the same conference when she tried to kick the band Two Nice Girls off of a benefit concert, a move that some called anti-gay, due to Two Nice Girls' overtly lesbian image.[11]
In 1993, SXSW moved into the Austin Convention Center, where it is still held.[12]
In 1994, SXSW added a component for film and other media, named the "SXSW Film and Multimedia Conference".[9]
That year, the three brothers of the band Hanson were brought to SXSW by their father in order to perform impromptu auditions for music executives, in the hopes of getting industry attention. Among the people who heard them was A&R executive Christopher Sabec, who became their manager, and would soon afterward get them signed to Mercury Records.[13]
In 1995 the SXSW Film and Multimedia Conference was split into two separate events, "SXSW Film" and "SXSW Multimedia".[9]
Comedian and actor Fred Armisen began his comic career with the short film Fred Armisen's Guide to Music and SXSW, released in 1998, in which he poses as various characters, asking silly questions of musicians and other attendees at that year's SXSW Music Conference.[14][15]
In 1999, SXSW Multimedia was renamed "SXSW Interactive".[9]
Singer-songwriter John Mayer's performance at the 2000 SXSW Music festival led to his signing soon thereafter with Aware Records, his first record label.
A performance by the band The Polyphonic Spree at the 2002 SXSW Music festival helped bring them to national attention before they had signed with a major label.[16]
At the 2002 SXSW Film Festival, the film Manito won the jury award for narrative feature, while the documentary Spellbound won the jury award for documentary feature.
British singer James Blunt was discovered by producer Linda Perry while playing a small show at the 2004 SXSW Music festival, and was signed to Perry's Custard Records soon thereafter,[17] where he would go on to release all three of his subsequent albums.
The 2005 SXSW Film is considered by some to be the origin of the mumblecore film genre. A number of films now classified as mumblecore, including The Puffy Chair and Mutual Appreciation, screened there, and Eric Masunaga, a musician and the sound editor on Mutual Appreciation, is credited with coining the term "mumblecore" at a bar while at the festival.[18]
The film Hooligans won both the Feature Film Jury Award and the Feature Film Audience Award for narrative feature, while The Puffy Chair won the Feature Film Audience Award in the "Emerging Visions" category. The documentary film Cowboy del Amor won the SXSW Competition Award and the Audience Award.
A secret concert at the 2006 SXSW Music by the band The Flaming Lips was called one of the "Top 10 Music-Festival Moments" of all time by Time magazine in 2010.[19]
The 2006 SXSW Interactive featured a keynote panel of Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales and Craigslist founder Craig Newmark.[20]
That year, "Screenburn at SXSW", a component for video games, was added to SXSW Interactive.[9]
The 2007 music festival took place from March 14 to 18, and more than 1,400 acts performed.
Two of the top film premieres that year were Elvis and Anabelle and Skills Like This.
The social media platform Twitter notably gained a good deal of early traction and buzz at the 2007 SXSW Interactive,[21] though it did not launch there, as is sometimes reported.[9]
The 2008 SXSW Interactive got media attention due to a keynote interview of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg by technology journalist Sarah Lacy that was considered by some observers to be a "train wreck" due to an audience perception that Lacy was asking uninteresting questions, as well as mocking or terse answers in response from Zuckerberg.[22]
The 2009 festival was held March 13–22. In 2009, the Interactive section of SXSW in particular drew larger attendance levels. This influx of tech-savvy attendees seriously strained the networks of providers such as AT&T (primarily due to heavy iPhone usage).[23] Also new was the founding of an international organization for those not attending, dubbed NotAtSXSW. Coordinating through Twitter and other online tools, notatsxsw events were held in London, New York, Wisconsin, Portland, Oregon and Miami.[24]
The 2009 SXSW Interactive saw the launch of the Foursquare application, which was called "the breakout mobile app" of the event by the Mashable blog.[25]
The 2009 SXSW Film screened 250 films, including 54 world premieres. The event was notable for having the United States premiere of the film The Hurt Locker, which went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2010.[9] The winners of the feature jury awards were, for documentary feature, 45365, and for narrative feature, Made in China.[26]
The 2010 music festival, which took place March 12–21, was dedicated to Alex Chilton, who died shortly before he was to perform with Big Star.[citation needed] A tribute concert was performed in his honor on March 20, 2010.[27]
At the 2010 festival, nearly 2,000 bands were officially scheduled to perform,[28] and festival reps estimated that over 13,000 industry representatives attended.[29] Though traditionally the Austin Music Awards kick off the festival, that year organizers slated it as the closing act. Local musician Bob Schneider earned 6 awards, including Song of the Year, Singer of the Year, and Band of the Year (with Lonelyland.)[28] The 2010 festival was also notable for appearances by the surviving members of the band Moby Grape.[30]
At the 2010 Film festival, Magnolia Pictures bought the film rights to the science-fiction film Monsters on the night it screened, in what was the first-ever "overnight acquisition" at SXSW. Journalist Meredith Melnick of Time magazine called this purchase a turning point for SXSW, leading to a greater interest among film studio executives in attending the festival in person.[31] That year also saw the premiere of the indie favorite Tiny Furniture, which won the award for Best Narrative Feature.
The 2010 Interactive festival had an estimated 12-13,000 paying attendees, which represented a 40% jump over the previous year.[32] This was the first year in which the interactive festival's attendance surpassed the music festival's.[32] The keynote presentation was an interview of then-Twitter CEO Evan Williams by Umair Haque, an interview that many in the audience found disappointingly superficial.[33] Also during the interactive festival, the first-ever (and so far only) "Hive Awards For the Unsung Heroes of the Internet" were held.
The 2011 SXSW festival ran from March 11 to 20.
The keynote presenter for SXSW Interactive was Seth Priebatsch, founder and CEO of the mobile-gaming platform SCVNGR.[34] The 2011 Interactive festival was by far the largest it had ever been, with an estimated 20,000 attendees.[35]
Also in attendance at SXSW was boxing legend Mike Tyson, promoting his new iPhone game with RockLive at the Screenburn Arcade[36]
At least two films screened at the SXSW Film festival gained distribution deals there: the documentary Undefeated (which went on to win the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature) and the thriller The Divide. As a result, film critic Christopher Kelly wrote that in 2011, SXSW Film went from being "a well-regarded but fundamentally regional event" to having "joined the big leagues of film festivals around the world."[37] That festival was also notable for having the premiere of the film Bridesmaids.[38]
The March 15 screening of the Foo Fighters documentary Back and Forth was followed by a surprise live performance by the band itself, with a setlist that included the entirety of the then-upcoming album Wasting Light.[39]
SXSW 2012 ran from March 9 to 18.
The standout technology of the 2012 SXSW Interactive was generally stated to be "social discovery" mobile apps, which let users locate other nearby users. Social discovery apps that had a presence at SXSW included Highlight, Glancee, Sonar and Kismet.[40][41]
SXSW Film saw the premiere of two major Hollywood films: The Cabin in the Woods[42] and 21 Jump Street.[38] Two films got distribution deals there: Girls Against Boys and The Tall Man.[43] Another film, Gimme the Loot, which won the SXSW Narrative Feature Grand Jury Prize, got a distribution deal a week after the festival.[44]
2012 was also the first year the music portion was expanded to Tuesday. The musical festival included rappers such as Talib Kweli and Lil' Wayne, Trip Lee, KB, Andy Mineo, Lecrae[45] along with surprise appearances by Big Sean and Kanye West. Bruce Springsteen was the keynote speaker opening the music portion of the 2012 festival.[46]
The big-budget films The Incredible Burt Wonderstone and Evil Dead premiered at the 2013 SXSW Film, as did the Snoop Dogg documentary Reincarnated, and Spring Breakers had its U.S. premiere.[47] The film Short Term 12 won the grand jury award for Best Narrative Feature. The films Cheap Thrills and Haunter received distribution deals there,[48] and Drinking Buddies got a distribution deal several days afterwards.[49]
The 2013 SXSW Interactive saw another huge jump in registration, now with 30,621 paying attendees.[50] This was over three times the number that had attended in 2008 (9,000), just five years previously.[51] The keynote talk for the 2013 SXSW Interactive was given by SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.[52] The "Screenburn" and "Arcade" components were renamed to "SXSW Gaming" and "SXSW Gaming Expo", respectively.[53] The Interactive conference was noted for its increased corporate presence, featuring major participation by Samsung, 3M, Target, American Airlines, Adobe Systems and AT&T, among others.[52][54] CNN, CBS and CNET called Grumpy Cat the undisputed "biggest star" of SXSW Interactive over Elon Musk, Al Gore and Neil Gaiman.[55][56][57]
Economic impact[edit]
Collectively, SXSW is the highest revenue-producing event for the Austin economy, with an estimated economic impact of $190.3 million in 2012.[58]
Similar festivals[edit]
The creators of South by Southwest co-created two similar festivals in 1995: North by Northwest (NXNW) in Portland, Oregon, and North by Northeast (NXNE) in Toronto. North by Northwest ended in 2001, and was replaced by MusicfestNW, an event run entirely by NXNW's other founders, the Willamette Week.[59] In 2006, SXSW organizers created West by Southwest (WXSW) in Tucson, Arizona, a music festival which occurs directly before South by Southwest and mostly features bands that are scheduled to play at SXSW.[60]
Other festivals inspired by SXSW include 35 Denton (formerly known as "North by 35" or "NX35" and "35 Conferette") in Denton, Texas, XOXO in Portland, Oregon, South by Due East in Houston, Live at Heart in Örebro, Sweden, The Great Escape Festival in Brighton, Incubate (formerly known as "ZXZW") in Tilburg, The Netherlands, MoSo Conference in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and The Goa Project in India. South by So What?!, a one day music festival, is also named after South by Southwest.

It is said on page 136 of the Beta rules that "Weapon customisations may only be applied to a piece of equipment that is part of the Standard Regimental Kit or a favoured weapon of the soldier's Regiment. Guardsmen never have sufficient exposure or training to safely customise more specialised weapons."
Can Specialist Gear be therefore customised, or not? Can a sergeant customise his Chain Sword, a Ratling his Sniper Rifle, or a Storm Trooper his Hotshot Lasgun?

Rules seem to indicate No. However it doesn't make much sense. In addition, the armourer (trade) skill allows me to build a plasma gun from scratch as long as I have the materials and schematics, so it shouldn't be impossible.
In our group we count that specialist gear as part of standard kit gear, because if you're a weapon specialist and favored regimental basic weapon is a bolter, but you instead of choosing that decides you're supposed to be a flamer… it doesn't make sense that you've been trained enough in that to make the same changes as you would your other weapons, some of which you probably used less than your flamer.
I think that Weapon Customization should be avaiable for all weapons. If you want to risk making your once-in-a-lifetime melta gun that got though a administrative hickup an unreliable piece of junk, go ahead.

3. | Soquid | ||
A phase of of matter that is has solid and liquid properties, hence the word soquid. A soquid could be either semi-frozen/melted matter or matter that is composed of small particles of solid mix with the right amount of liquid. Slushies, smoothies, and ice cream and other things are poor quality soquids and most may not even be soquids. Mercury is a dense liquid with a high viscosity, not a solid.
Soquids melt faster than soft solids that have a similar or lower melting point. Soquids can also hold peaks. Soquid is (sqd). H2O(sqd)=H2O(l)<>H2O(s). Freezing and melting is occuring at the same time. Honey, peanut butter, Wendy's frosty, magma, semi-melted glass (which acts like honey), possibly quicksand. All in the soquid phase.
1. | soquid | ||
A substance that is not a complete solid and not quite a liquid. Popularized by Wendy's to describe the Frosty. The technical term is an amorphous solid Examples of soquids other than a Wendy's Frosty include glue, mercury, and pudding.
2. | Soquid | ||
Soquid is the physical term for a semi-solid. Soquid is a state of matter between a solid and a liquid. While similar to a solid in some respects (it can support its own weight and hold its shape), a soquid also shares some properties of liquids, such as shape conformity to something applying pressure to it, or the ability to flow under pressure. Soquids can also hold peaks. Soquids flow more slowly and are "thicker" than a liquid. Semi-melted Jolly Rancher, Peanut Butter, Slushies, and the Wendy's Frosty are all examples of soquids. Dude: Whoa! Have you heard about that state of matter!
Dude 2:Yeah! The one between a solid and a liquid. Twin Girls: You two sound intellectually sexy! Dude and Dude 2: Want to go grab a soquid? Twin Girls: Mmm. A sexy word for frosty. Sure! |
4. | soquid | ||
(sok-wid)Noun; A newly discovered phase of matter in which the liquid state and solid state of matter is combined only physically possible on Earth. The soquid consists of 50% solid and 5o% liquid. This phenomenon makes it the fifth newly discovered phase and is in order with the rest of the phases as so: gas, liquid, soquid, solid, and plasma.
The soquid was recently discovered in the year 2006 when two young male connoisseur's of Wendy's restaurants when one of them bought a so-called "frozen treat" called the Frosty and questioned its "frozen" properties. Thus the race to find the meaning of such phenomenon was taken to a high school as a project for a science class by these two young males. later, it was discovered that this "frozen treat" could be better with added toppings creating the ultimate frosty and the frozen treat. Wendy's has since then referred to the Frosty as a soquid and eventually took all rights to consider it theirs. See wendy's Anyone can see this phase of matter at any Wendy's restaurant franchises everywhere. No other company has ever imitated this phase for lack of skill or lack of courage to mess with nature in such a supernatural way. Due to the large volume of customers in these restaurants each day could Wendy's be considered a haven to some. See stoners graceland. *... |
5. | Soquid | ||
1. A liquid and a solid in one.
2. Smooshy yet not a liquid 3. Something that does not run (liquidy) The melted glass is not runny. It is a soquid.
6. | Soquid | ||

Patience is overrated. Or more to the point, it's overwaited.
Bad-mouthing patience seems like heresy. Everyone asks how can I be more patient, when will I be more patient, why can't I be more patient? We've seen what impatience can do, and we're impatient to be patient. It's a nice idea, but so far it's gotten me nowhere.
I'm so fed up with myself that I'm not waiting for patience any longer. I'm going to elbow my way to the front of the line.
Maezumi Roshi once said, "If we were truly patient, we would never have any problems." That tells us that all problems are problems of patience. Things aren't the way we want them to be, and we want to change them into something else.
Patience is undisturbed with the way things are.
Impatience is disturbed with the way things are.
I'm disturbed most of the time, and that means I'm angry most of the time.
I'm angry most of the time. I really am. Are you?
And so I thought, "OK, I'm going to give up on this patience thing and let myself be angry. I'm going be undisturbed with myself.
Can you believe I said that? I said ,"let myself be angry." I didn't say, "let myself act angry," although I still do that plenty too. I said "be angry." There's a difference.
When I let myself be angry, I say something like this:
I'm angry.
When I don't let myself be angry, holding out for that halo of patience to arrive, I say something like this:
And then I throw something like this:
coffee cup
salad plate
laundry basket
car keys
wedding ring
the car into reverse and screech out of the driveway
That's a lot of trouble, way more trouble than I want to keep picking up after, and so I've resolved to practice impatience. Radical impatience. I'm going to let myself be angry – that's it, be angry – because the more angry I can admit to being the less angry I'll be. The sooner I'm impatient with patience the sooner I'll be undisturbed with the way I am.
Patience! I'm letting you go.

I keep trying to remember this. One of my favorite things from your book is when you talk about "when you're tired, just be tired" because it gets really ugly and I get really angry and blameful when I'm tired and trying to be everything else Thanks. Again.

very radical.
I want to just allow what is to be what is, in all its imperfection. Anger, sadness, disappointment.
I want to let things slip without beating myself up about it.
Let it go and start from here, because that's always where we are, isn't it?

Husband suggests my exhaustion may arise in part because I practice so much "patience." I think he's on to something. I struggle with the same thing you describe here! Lately I've been working on "using my words" more. Claire has recently begun to announce that she feels sad, or mad. A good example to follow.

Oh my, I too am an angry mother. I am not an angry person, but I am an angry mother. And I look at my child and wonder- why does he lash out like that? Why does he get angry so fast? Well, because he sees me do it. So now I will try to BE angry instead of GET angry, and I too am tired of patience, I am also tired of all the books etc that tell me if I were just more patient, understanding, enlightened, grounded, etc I would be a better mother.

There's a myth that having children teaches you to be patient. But in my experience, having children has instead made me realize more fully just how impatient a person I am!
Thanks for offering another, radical view.

oh i sooooooo relate to this.
after several whining/screaming/demanding outbursts this morning from satch about every breakfast he chose and then didn't eat... i totally lost it when he demanded that i make a fourth course of mac n' cheese. what is it with mac n' cheese? i want to blame my outburst on the lack of sleep, having returned at 3 AM from yet another trip to the ER. (why are doctor's offices closed at five when all the kids get sick at night?) so with my son's screeching exploding my brain into 50 million pieces, i grabbed the box of mac n' cheese, threw it into the cabinet and yelled - go to your room before i completely lose my mind! he ran and the husband promptly dropped our son's prescriptions on the counter and flew out the door. (thanks bud)
is there a Buddhist ceremony for administering medication to a screaming, kicking 4 year old?
some sort of god i can pray to for mercy, lol?
to hell with patience - i'm done with it. can we just send everyone to their rooms and call it a day?
i love you, mae.

If only I could never leave my room! That's why I practice: to expand the walls of my room until it encompasses the whole friggin world.

All I can say is:
I'm angry, too!
There are times I say it.
And there are the times I act it out.
Oh, I'm so tired of acting angry... Reading your post, I imagine myself carving out a big ole space for my anger and letting it be there, and letting it roil around in the big space until it goes slower and slower and slower...
and slower.
Thank you -- I have a bigger heart just now.

What a wonderful concept. I'm always saying patienc is NOT a virtue. I know I have absolute none to speak of, so embrassing impatience is all too easy. (Hugs)Indigo

Being angry is kind of funny ... you know how when you're fighting with your spouse (well, complaining to your spouse about how he never does enough and you never get to do the things you want to do) and he wants you to stop so he says something funny and there's that moment when you pause and you want to still be mad, but you want to laugh, but if you laugh, you lose the battle, no more fight ... I think that is a cool moment, the moment of conscious choice. When it comes down to the choice moment, I'm gonna give up the anger and laugh. I hope.
- May 5, 2009 at 9:12 AM
The more you bottle it in, the more explosive it is when it finally escapes.
ELJ, your child lashes out because he's angry. And that's good. Better that than cramming it down to explode later. I think it's good to let your child see you get angry. Angry is functional and normal.
Karen, thank you! And I love the coffee cup graphic. - May 5, 2009 at 9:15 AM

looked myself in the mirror and declared my inability to practice patience a moment longer.
i'm in dire need of radical change.

I've only recently begun to discover how angry I am. I just wasn't ready to consider it before.
- May 5, 2009 at 10:35 AM
- ZenMom said...
This is just what I needed to read today, too.
I tell my husband that I sometimes think my natural state is impatience - a disconnect between what I *expect* and what *is*.
Sometimes, I'm able to become more consciously aware of that state and that can help to alleviate it.
But sometimes, I just have to accept that this moment - right now - is the moment that I need to be angry or upset or freaked out.
And that's okay too. The moment will pass. But, like you said, accepting it for what it is can help it pass all the faster.
I don't comment much, but I read almost every post here. And I appreciate them all. Thank you. :) - May 5, 2009 at 10:49 AM

Radical impatience, I love it. This is a practice I was born for.

Better behind the wheel with you than in front? Or maybe, no difference.
- May 5, 2009 at 1:59 PM
I love this post and all the great comments. I am angry so much of the time and to hear that others feel that way too is huge. Not to go back to a childhood thing but we were never allowed to express our anger as kids or it was deemed disrespectful. I don't even remember when I understood this because I think the lesson came at a very young age. Now my exhaustion upon exhaustion comes first from losing my patience, getting angry and then all this ridiculous guilt that stems from losing my patience and getting angry. I hate the cycle. Can I just be angry sometimes and let my kids be angry sometimes? I don't know what that looks like? Can you do it without yelling? Whatever I am doing now just completely backfires every time because I work hard to keep it all in and end up exploding in the end. thank you again for this post. kelly

Very interesting post, Karen - thought-provoking. Thanks.

What a relief . . . I have all of this good company in my impatience and my anger.
I've associated impatience as a precursor to anger and anger as something either debilitating because it is bottled up (as required as a child) or destructively explosive (as father behaved.) Trying to find the middle ground has become an essential task of motherhood (and marriage.)My anger and impatience with myself only affected me in the past!
Thank you for striking a new, illuminated path for us! - May 6, 2009 at 4:33 AM

I am an older mom than you and most of your readers. My children are in various stages of leaving home. One graduates from college this weekend. WHere did the time go? When they were little, I played little tricks in my mind to help me keep "life" in perspective. When I tripped over their toys for the umpteenth time, I would stop and envision how empty and grief stricken I would be if they were to be "gone" and their toys sitting properly on the shelf. My almost 16 year old daughter is in that "moody" stage. It's much harder to bite my tongue and let her "attitude" go but I am determined not to take it personally. It is what it is. I really would not give up one moment of any of their childhoods. But I do sit smugly with the knowledge that they will appreciate the depth and challenge of mothering when they too become mothers. I do get the last laugh after-all!

i find myself angry in a type of deep sorrow bordering on complete lack of emotion. the anger so embedded and ancient, so pervasive and undeniably solid that my core is shaken and yet, still.
little explosions happens. i like them. they remind me to breathe the anger in and out. to eat the anger with my breakfast. to sing it. to transform it while embodying it.
this anger propels me at the same time it cements me.
if i look to the trees. those that have deep roots and routes, sacred passageways, i find that i too can tunnel. that i too can create underground change. secretly, with revelry and undeniable revolution.
just like the spring.
we are all emerging. - May 6, 2009 at 11:34 AM

My son does not like mac n cheese (just noting your comment), but I love this post. Lately I've been trying to figure out just how many of my flaws it is okay for the kiddo to see. Sure, he's see my flaws--how well can anyone hide them? But wouldn't it be okay to stop trying to be "perfect" and say, yes, child, this is the mom you have. That's okay.
- May 6, 2009 at 7:10 PM
- Katherine said...
A friend asked me about anger years before I had children. I answered as truthfully as possible that I didn't get angry. Maybe I did back then and just didn't recognize it. But I most certainly do now (with 3 kids) and often simply because I'm not supposed to. In any case, it's heartening to read from another "thrower of things". Thank you!

is this a change in policy? i thought you were for escorting anger out of house a few years ago? no doubt i misunderstood then. great post. my first dokusan ever i had been sitting about 3 months and was asked what difference it made and the answer sprang to my lips that i noticed how many times a day and how intensely i get mad. i used to think i was a slow to get mad person, but it turns out i am a slow to be aware of my own anger.

Chris, I do believe this is the fastest way to throw it out of the house. Two words. A single breath.

impatience and anger are a nasty duo.
i have tried acknowledging it too. i am frustrated, i am angry, i am overwhelmed and more importantly this will pass, this will pass, this is only now it will pass.
but i have discovered a wonderful tool from my daughters. going outside and throwing beanbags as hard as you can. that helps too. - May 11, 2009 at 6:28 PM
- thisnewplace said...
I've had it many times. (and threw a wine glass into the sink once, and pretended in the end I just knocked it into the sink by accident) Whoops! I was so embarrassed. At any rate, to feel it is good, to know what to do with it, is key. I generally feel I am resenting something when I feel angry and pent up like that. And that is the worst, we only hurt ourselves in the end! Bah!!

What do you mean?
I'll be at Birmingham and s there's no computer meaning I won't be able to see my LotD and I want to see my levels as LotD. It's a simple request. How the hell is it complaining?
What you've done is jump to the conclusion that I was complaining again.
It's looks like you're complaining because you made you're writing big and saying that mods are ignoring you're nominations, and just because you nominate a level and nobody replied to it, doesn't mean they didn't read your post, and there's other levels being nominated.
Edit: anyways let's get back on topic
sorry I misunderstood

You misunterstood Stickman.
He means that mods should ignore the nominations made to DD's level because he will be out and won't see his Lotd (if he gets it)

Hi fellow Meetup Members.
I was invited to this from my friend who is the producer of the event.
He gave me a few "bring a guest" tickets, so I thought I would pass them
on to you as my contribution to the group.
Here's the info
Hit me up with any questions.
Hi Tai, I met you in May 2011 at the Ethnographic Research Meetup for LA UPA. I told you about a website redesign project I want to launch but need a developer. You mentioned it was something you could do. I've lost your business card, but if you're still interested please email me at [masked].
Hi Tai!
I hope you remember me. I attended the Mobile Start- Up camp at LMU. I am one of Dr. Hess's students. I am looking to finally start my first company and am looking for a website developer. If you could connect me to somebody that would be great!
