The Proust Questionnaire is a questionnaire about one's personality. Its name and modern popularity as a form of interview is owed to the responses given by the French writer Marcel Proust. At that time, it was popular among English families to answer a list of questions that revealed the tastes and aspirations of the taker.
A similar questionnaire is regularly seen on the back page of Vanity Fair magazine, answered by various celebrities.
This week's Proust Questionnaire profiles Huldah Niles, a substitute violinist in the Opera Orchestra. "Thanks for thinking of including the orchestra in this!" said Huldah. "We may not be on the stage but we provide the lush colors that support the singers and set the moods."
What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery?
I believe the "lowest depth of misery" to be the belief that one is all alone in the world.
What is your idea of earthly happiness?
Complete forgiveness of yourself and others.
Who are your favorite heroes of fiction?
Spongebob Squarepants is my hero. I think he truly understands the beauty of simple joy and happiness.
Vincent Van Gogh is my favorite painter. I recently read an article that suggests he was color blind and that is why his color palette is so unusual. Whatever the case may be, I always want to be a part of the world he depicts.
Your favorite musician?
Erik Satie is my favorite musician. I love how simple and elegant his music is. It was meant to be background music; to simply be a part of the world, not the focus.
The quality you most admire in a man? The quality you most admire in a woman?
I love people that are truly a part of the present moment. They give you their full attention and you can really connect. Sometimes I feel like we are all so weighed down by our past and planning for the future that we forget stay awake to what is going on around us.
What is your motto?
Love is all there is!
Do you have a website, Facebook fan page, or a Twitter for everyone to follow?
How long have you been involved with opera and what drew you to the art form?
This is my 6th season with the Minnesota Opera Orchestra. I've always loved the human voice. I think it's what drew me to the violin as well. I don't have any vocal skills but my violin helps me come close to having that same warmth and emotion. I'm also drawn to the timelessness of opera. These operas have been watched for centuries and there is always truth to be found in them.
Favorite behind-the-scenes memory…
One of our guest conductors had a false front tooth. During a PERFORMANCE said tooth went flying out of his mouth and landed on a violist's foot! The best part of the story is that the violist and the rest of the orchestra never missed a beat while trying to stifle our mirth. You would think the conductor would have been so embarrassed he would have found a solution to his problem but no….the tooth popped out a 2nd time at the very next performance!

Candlelight vigil attendees suggest alternative uses for St. Patrick's
WATERVLIET — St. Patrick's Church in Watervliet meant different things to different people. The feelings and opinions expressed by the crowd of concerned citizens that gathered in front of the Roman Catholic parish building on 19th Street for what was billed a candlelight vigil on Saturday night were mixed to say the least. More a night of caroling by a devoted group that has championed the fight to prevent the brick church, school and parish buildings from being demolished later this week to make way for a Price Chopper supermarket, the most frequently expressed concern seemed to be against the change such a massive project would bring to the neighborhood.
Those present, including Citizens For St. Patrick's members, past parishioners and residents, sang traditional holiday songs as they lit and clutched white votive candles into the night. Misty Lemay of Watervliet came out to join those gathered. "It's been in our community for at least 100 years. It's a shame they chose this building instead of some of the others they could have picked to build a "box chopper" in. I've lived here my whole life and my parents own businesses here." Lemay said she was there to represent people who love beautiful architecture, which, she said, "we don't have much of here in Watervliet."
Citizens For St. Patrick's organizers Christine Bulman and Eileen Anderson, both of Watervliet, have fought the demolition of St. Patrick's from the beginning. When asked what saving the edifice meant to her, Bulman said, "This is the historical centerpiece of our community. It's not only a beautiful façade; it's also our legacy. It is to us not just a preservation issue, but also a community and neighborhood issue. It is our concern that one of the most beautiful buildings not just in Watervliet, but in the Capital District should be destroyed. It's not just a shame but an embarrassment that so many people in this community have allowed this process to get to this point. This has been my parish. I was raised and baptized in this place. It has been my family's parish. At the closing, I was not a congregant, but this place was certainly a part of my heritage. We should not have to be here pleading for its preservation."
Anderson said it means many things to her as well. "My children were all baptized here and it has been my parish for 40 years. We're here tonight to draw attention to the magnificent architecture and the spirit of the place."
When asked about the expense for the Albany Roman Catholic Diocese to maintain such a structure, Anderson said "We're still looking for other avenues to save the building, including financial. It was not properly marketed. It was just done locally. It should have gone out much further. We hoped people would step forward and that there would be an independent assessment apart from the figures given by the Nigro Companies."
Others had visions of a more sustainable, environmentally friendly use for the space. Troy resident Jamey Thompson said, "I grew up in Troy right across the river there and you could see this church forever as I was growing up. It's 14,000 square feet of space. I think it's time for communities to think of more unique ways to utilize pre-existing spaces. Look all over the country at the different ways people have made use of churches, malls and different historical places. Look at the Chelsea Market, in Manhattan. It was an old bakery, and they now have food stands and craft people and a fish market. Why couldn't we do something like that here? Price Chopper or Hannaford could come in and be a part of something new that no one has done before."

Dennis Goodwin always enjoyed seeing the shock on friends' faces when he told them he was born in Cuba—Alabama, that is.
The son of a school teacher and bank cashier, he was the oldest of three red-headed boys. Cuba was the perfect place for adventure, exploring and experiencing life in an old-fashioned way. After high school, Livingston University, a two-year missionary experience in Korea, and Southwestern Seminary, Dennis felt in his love for people the desire to serve God.
Twelve houses and six churches later, we came to live in beautiful Birmingham, along with our three-year-old son. Over the next 15 years, there were financial challenges, occupational changes, and just when life seemed to finally settle down, prostate cancer entered our lives.
Dennis' father and grandfather had died at young ages from heart disease, so we were always guarded about that possibility, never expecting prostate cancer, a silent disease that can attack the body when one is unaware. Dennis was a very young 49, a minister to senior adults at Dawson Memorial Baptist Church with a full life ahead. But as the year 2000 began, he had surgery to remove his prostate We prayed for a cure, but in less than two years, radiation was needed. Again, we hoped the cancer would not return, but over a ten-year span, many other treatments were needed with small time intervals in between of enjoyed good health. Dennis lost his battle with prostate cancer at the age of 59.
I believe the real value of a person's life is seen in how it impacted others. He left me with many valuable life tools. His strong faith became more and more evident in his last years. I noted great courage as he struggled with cancer. He demonstrated love in always seeking the best for others and showed humility in dealing with the reality of his mortality.
For almost five years, he had a decorating business and delighted in helping people take their old things and make them look new by arranging them differently or putting them in a different room in their house. It was never about making money. He loved going into a restaurant and asking the waiter if there was anything heavy on his heart, and he offered to pray for that person right then and there.
I remember him being in great pain after the cancer spread throughout his body. When a young man he was ministering to was put in jail, in spite of the pain, Dennis went to bail him out. When I had my 40th birthday, my loving husband had a dozen roses delivered to me each hour for four hours at my workplace, each delivery with a loving note.
Many times the most valuable lessons are learned through heartache and suffering. Things that come easy are not always what´s best. Throughout his fight with cancer, Dennis continued to trust that God had the master plan. He lived each day as a gift to be treasured. Dennis chose to have a positive outlook on life, focusing on others rather than himself. As friends would visit our home to minister to him, they were uplifted by encouraging words from a dying man.
This year the Tour de Blue bicycle ride will be held in Birmingham on April 28 in Dennis' memory to raise money for prostate cancer testing for men in underprivileged areas of Alabama. Three months before Dennis died, he spoke to a group of men at a Man-to-Man prostate cancer meeting at Urology Centers of Alabama regarding his "Bucket List." Little did we know that his speech would now be accessible via the Internet to encourage others who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer (urologyhealthfoundation.org).
The author of this poem is unknown, but I believe this has an important message for all of us regarding life:
THE MEASURE OF A MAN Anonymous
Not - How did he die?
But - How did he live?
Not - What did he gain? But - What did he give?
These are the things that measure the worth Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
Not - What was his station?
But - Had he a heart?
And - How did he play his God-given part?
Was he ever ready with a word of good cheer?
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
Not - What was his church?
Not - What was his creed?
But - Had he befriended those really in need?
Not - What did the sketch in the newspaper say?
But - How many were sorry when he passed away?

He claimed the title of overall tournament champion at Beaver Creek Golf Club in Zachary during the Arrowhead Junior Gold Tour - Beaver Creek Junior Classic tournament held Feb. 11-12.
Poor weather conditions and high winds made it difficult for the playing field, and low scores were hard to come by.
However, McCulloch managed to post a 76 on the first day of play, followed by another 76 on Sunday to finish overall for the weekend with a 3-shot victory.
McCulloch is a junior at Zachary High School and a member of the ZHS Bronco Golf team.
Good job, Peyton!

Review: 'Lego Batman 2' ~ A Superhero Block Party
My son Beau (aka @Beauology) throw down on all the LEGO XBox games ~ and with my penchant for BATMAN, we couldnt wait this Lego Batman 2 to arrive. Needless to say, it gets are seal of approval - not to mention, it's the first LEGO game to have "real voices with WORDS" in them.
Bonus: We fight over who gets to be Robin and stomp around in the magnetic suit. I personally like the thought behind the HAZMAT suit and all I get to slush around in when I am Robin instead of Batman (understatement). Kudos for the developers for giving Robin a little up on the trick-suits and fun.
We pre-ordered (with a $5 deposit) and reserved our game early at GameStop and we received an exclusive (and super snazzy) Lego Lex Luther Minifigure. Target has something similar going on, just ask.
Here's Brett Molina's aka @bam923 of USA Today take on the game:
'Lego Batman 2' ~ A Superhero Block Party
by Brett Molina, USA TODAY
Since the Justice League stars two superheroes who can speed around the world in seconds, it's surprising to see how long it takes them to come to the aid of players in the action title Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes.
The follow-up to 2008's Lego Batman features all the building blocks of its predecessor and the charm and humor of previous Lego titles. It's too bad players can't enjoy the exploits of The Flash, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and others in a more meaningful way.
Lego Batman 2 is part of studio Traveller's Tales' long line of Lego action titles, covering classics including Star Wars, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter.
The second chapter kicks off with Bruce Wayne and Lex Luthor vying for Gotham City's Man of the Year award. The Joker crashes the festivities, and eventually teams up with Superman's arch nemesis to wreak havoc.
Lego Batman 2 follows the similar path taken by earlier Lego series title, blending combat, tricky navigation across platforms and some light puzzle-solving. Working as the Dynamic Duo, players don different outfits such as Batman's Electricity Suit or Robin's Magnetic Suit to advance through a series of levels. Players can tackle the adventure solo or with a friend offline.
Lego games are also about hidden treasures, so expect to hunt down special gold and red bricks as well as other unlockable items.
The big change in Lego Batman 2 is the open world of Gotham City. Instead of following a guided journey through the game's Story Mode, players are free to explore Gotham, seeking out hidden gems, rescuing citizens and beating down criminals.
There's also a large roster of playable heroes and villains available to use in Free Play mode. Characters include Batman rivals such as Two-Face, Penguin, Clayface, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy and more. There are also allies such as Superman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, The Flash, Martian Manhunter and Hawkman ready to join the fight.
Most interesting is these characters now talk, a first for the Lego franchise. Fortunately, they don't lose the charm and cuteness fans of these games have seen before. Each voice feels like the ideal fit for the character, from the serious tones of Batman to the cackling, crazed Joker.
Initially, the Justice League roster is so much fun to use. The Flash whips around buildings at top speed, while Green Lantern creates items such as giant hands or other tools with his ring. None of this tops flying around Gotham as Superman. Fans of the Superman films might get goosebumps first hearing the classic music of composer John Williams playing as they zip across the city.
While impressive, developers make you jump through several hoops before stepping into their superhero boots. For starters, Free Play mode isn't accessible until players finish the Story. Also, most of the campaign levels feature Batman and Robin, with a sprinkling of Superman in between. It's not until the final two levels before the Justice League joins players in full force.
Once players finally reach Free Play, they'll still need the right amount of Lego bits and gold bricks to unlock all these characters. Even though the Lego Batman 2 story is open, players are better off speeding through the story so they can enjoy the impressive lineup, and use flying characters to quickly explore the city.
Then again, it's not like players do much with them once they are free. Villains can be easily vanquished, leaving heroes to only search for bricks and save citizens. And although flying around the city as Superman or Green Lantern feels wonderful, there's not much else to do in Lego Gotham.
Lego Batman 2 is still a fun, satisfying video game, especially for young kids. It's unfortunate players can't get Batman's allies to join the fun earlier.

Fantastic weekend spent in this apartment corresponding to its description and extremely well located.Sympathetic owners leaving tea and coffee available.
Weekend fantastique passé dans cet appartement correspondant à sa description et extrêmement bien situé. Propriétaires sympathiques laissant du thé et du café à disposition.
We had a great time in this apartment. Fabulous location, it has everything you need. Communication prior to arrival was hard due to the language barrier, and on the day of check out they arrived at 8.30am to start cleaning. But we had a ball.
We found it difficult to communicate as the contact person didn't speak English, other than that everything was perfect.
Just add your question in the comments box below and we'll get back to you very soon.

Levail High School. Until today, this school was nothing special. Its student body was quite varied and there was indiscipline across all levels, but no more than at any other school in a similar neighborhood. As seniors at that school, the time has come for the "Throne Speech", that is, the speech the principal delivers at the beginning of the year. One extravagant promise after another was made to the ~350 seniors that were still left to down from about ~450 when they entered Levail as freshmen.
"Today, I am proud to announce that we will offer a complete refund of all testing fees and application fees to all students who get into a first-tier university among this year's senior class. However, we need a complete listing of all testing fees and application fees to be delivered at my office by May 1st or else you won't get the money that was so promised" Principal Velasquez announced in front of all seniors that attended the school this day. "Thus, the goal is to land as many kids as we can to the best colleges around the world. Some of you might be interested in foreign colleges; if you have any questions pertaining to the eligibility of specific foreign colleges for the purposes of this year's master plan, don't hesitate to contact me by email or to take an appointment at my office."
You are free to play any kind of senior you wish, only you have to pay due respect to the NPCs, which includes the teachers, the college counselors as well as the administrators (vice principals or Principal Velazquez) In addition to your kid, you can also elect to use a parent of your main character as an ancillary character.

Re: Day three
WOW Nick Toon is still on the board? Personally I'd love any of those WR's, Givens is a burner, Criner would be interesting, would be over the moon with Childs.
I think they go WR with their early fourth, and try and get a safety like Markelle Martin with their late fourth.
Can't help but wonder if since they waited this long for a receiver they'll wait till the end of the 4th.

The abandoning of our 5th round pick to move up and get Pierce reminds me a little of the decision we made last year with Jah Reid. I think Reid was a so so pick, but were we in real danger of having someone beat us to him. That was what I'm wondering with Pierce too. Was trading up 7 picks in the 3rd round really worth a 5th rounder to take a player that probably had a high likelihood of being there anyways? Puzzling.

Re: Day three
Ozzie felt so, thats why he made the move. had we only had 1 5th i dont think he does it but with 2 he made the move not wanting to risk losing him. When you have extra picks you can do this even if he "may" be available when we would have picked. Who would have thought upshaw would be there at 29?

Re: Day three
As for day 3
I think our first rd 4 pick is their highest rated WR and our other one is a S or DL.
5th Rd is CB
6th, K, OL
7th, ILB
Re: Day three
Juron Criner, Marvin Jones, Marvin McNutt, Nick Toon, Greg Childs, Chris Givens, Jarius Wright, Joe Adams, Tommy Streeter
Bobby Massie, Nate Potter, Andrew Datko, Brandon Washington, Senio Kelemete, Gino Gradkowski, Phillip Blake, Michael Brewster
James-Michael Johnson, Keenan Robinson, Audie Cole, Tank Carder, Ronnell Lewis, Josh Kaddu, Jonathan Massaquoi, Miles Burris
Brandon Boykin, Alfonzo Dennard, Josh Norman, Markelle Martin, George Iloka, Trenton Robinson, Cliff Harris
Jared Crick, Billy Winn, Cam Johnson, Trevor Guyton
I think there are some guys who can be contributors still hanging out there on the board. This is just a sampling. There is still over half the draft to go, and the Ravens have five picks to parlay into some quality players.
Re: Day three
Ozzie said that they noticed a lot of players they liked were coming off the board, so they felt it was worth it to move up to get Pierce because they are really high on him. I guess that's what happens when you pick towards the end of the round. Better to get five guys you really like than eight guys you are lukewarm about. There are still a lot of quality players out there for the taking.
Re: Day three
In the press conference after the 2nd round Ozzie and DeCosta stated that they were staying true to the board.
I think they'll continue to work it that way.When it comes to quarterbacks, don't pay attention to stats; pay attention to guys who make crucial plays at crucial times. -Gil Brandt

Re: Day three
I know I'm probably alone on this one, but I think we can get away with waiting on wr. I would rather have ronnel Lewis or Jared crick with the first 4th then Markelle Martin. Then top receiver left. I cannot believe how some of this talent has fallen.

Re: Day three
Even though I think Ronnell Lewis is the best player remaining on the board (and would be happy to get him to start the 4th round), I really hope we go with Toon at pick 98. I think he is the most ready to step in and help us right away. The second most ready to step in and help instantly is Marvin McNutt from Iowa in my opinion. Don't think anyone has mentioned him. As much as I like Toon and McNutt, there are still so many intriguing WRs later. Marvin Jones is promising. Greg Childs is really enticing. Nobody mentioned Tommy Streeter either. Streeter is a 6-5 guy who ran a 4.40 Forty. Crazy good athlete. I prefer Givens to Joe Adams among the smaller WRs left. Heck, even if we passed on WR at both #4 picks and our #5 pick, we still might be able to take a chance on Dwight Jones in round six. I've liked Toon from day one, but he's not the only horse in the WR stable.
Most of the names listed above are the ones that have me most excited on the back end of our draft:
Markelle Martin, S- Oklahoma St.
I'd also add George Iloka-S-Boise St. to that list. I think there is a chance Martin is gone by our late 4th round pick, but he surely will be gone by late 5. Iloka wouldn't be an awful pick at late 4 and would be a very nice pick at late 5.
Ben Jones-C-Georgia would be a nice pick at our late 4th pick.
Michael Brewster-C-Ohio St. also might be a possibility in the fifth round.
We might pass on Jones and Brewster if we feel like Gradkowski is our man and feel like we can get him in the 6th.
I know we haven't discussed TE in this draft much, but Ladarius Green from Lousiana-Lafayette is still out there and might be all the way up until our 5th round pick. He's way too lanky for my liking, but ran a 4.53 at 6-foot-6, 237, which is pretty darn good. He might be a nice guy to draft late and bury for a year or two.
Also, at TE, there is DeAngelo Patterson. He won't ever contribute much as a pass catcher, but unlike Pitta and Dickson, he is a very good blocker. I've seen him listed as a 4th-5th rounder. I wouldn't draft him there, but if he was around at the end of round six, I'd be interested.
Re: Day three
Not really. They have 9 picks. 9 aren't going to make it. Plus they have a comp pick in the 5th close to the one they dealt.
They needed a quality RB for many reasons to many to mention. Plus, the Steelers needed one also, and where looking at him apparently. Mendenhall is likely out. I bet the Steelers where going to grab him. Now, with Peirce you have a good RB to split carries and get tough short yardage plays more effectively than Rice. Pierce might be our starter in 2 years, or it might give Rice a reality check and lower his demands. Ravens might have saved millions by making this move over time.
Re: Day three
At 6' 3", 220 lbs and a 4.40 40 yd time, he certainly is enticing. Besides that, the guy runs good routes, attacks the ball and goes to it (as opposed to waiting for it to come to him), has strong hands, and is a solid, aggressive blocker. The only knock is that he was injured, but by the performance at his pro day it seems he's over that. I think he might be the steal of the draft at this stage.

Re: Day three
I love Ronnell Lewis, but is there a place for him?
I like Nick Toon at this point with his abilities and also am intrigued by Bobby Massie.
Bobby Massie anyone?

Re: Day three
I admit I haven't really looked at WR, so I have no formed opinion there/
Like most others on your list though...
I'm not sold on Miles Burris (LB) (smells like Jason Phillips slowness there) I like Braylon Broughton better may go in 7th.
DE Trevor Guyton -Cal, I really like, don't see where we would take him, See a great edge setter in him but don't know the FO board rankings - remembering last year with McPhee out of nowhere to me. I'm sure Jared Crick goes before him as does the other 2 you listed
C Gino may be undrafted, still a bunch of "names" to go before him. Massie I've read is a RT only, where we have depth need LT C/G
I'm listening for
Justin Bethel Presbyterian 6' 200 (4.45 40) FS(CB/SS/KR/ST)
Malik Jackson DE/DT
Ryan Steed, CB, Furman
Possible 7th round flyers/UDFA invites I like

Disgust at poppy sellers abused in street
8:30am Tuesday 15th November 2011 in News By Tanya O'Rourke
The Royal British Legion last night condemned the abuse and assaults suffered by poppy sellers in Bradford this year – the first it has ever recorded.
The incidents included: l A 13-year-old female Army Cadet suffering a young thug spitting in her face; l Two Asian girl cadets getting verbal abuse for selling poppies due to the colour of their skins; l Two other sellers being set upon in the city centre; l A gang threatening other selllers for their collecting tins.
Bradford Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal organiser Barbara Allsopp said she deplored the incidents.
She said: "The cadets are trying to help servicemen and women that have not just served in other conflicts but are serving today, and getting killed and maimed for life – these cadets are collecting for them and I think it is downright disgusting.
"They should hang their heads in shame, it is terrible.
"The cadets have never had this sort of problem before. I feel sorry for them, it's not right."
Superintendent Owen West, of Bradford South Police, warned such behaviour would not be tolerated by his officers. He said: "Those who work to distribute poppies should not expect to be confronted with violence, intimidation or abuse.
"It will not be tolerated in our city and anyone found to have targeted sellers in this way will be robustly dealt with by both the police and the courts."

What do you think?
I personally would always advocate people take what they are prescribed, as you always have the option of discontinuing it later on. It's one thing to stop treatment because of side effects and quite another never to start because some other people had some...!
Personally I found gabapentin (even in fairly large doses - remember that we can't mention specific amounts on the open forum but feel free to PM me if you want to discuss it) to make absolutely no difference to my mental state or weight, with a large decrease in pain. Remember that people are more likely to post negative side effects than positive, and that your doctor wouldn't have prescribed them unless they think they will help you. The followup with the nurse will be to see if you do experience any side effects, so I would take them and see what happens by the time of your followup. Certainly don't be scared off by us lot!

As Jimmy Is
LP (Item 612876) Roker, Late 60s — Condition: New Copy
Jimmy Reed, recorded in Chicago, in a rare indie set that's got some sweet electric touches – and some odd undercurrents as well! The rhythms are right on the money, as are Jimmy's vocals and harmonica – but there's also some pretty cool wah wah effects on the guitar at times – which creates this slightly funky, slightly offbeat feel to the record – a great style that's a little bit more messed-up than usual for this type of album, but in a subtle way too. Titles include the instrumental "Funky Funky Soul", plus "Over The Hump", "Cry Before I Go", "Big Legged Woman", "Crying Blind", and "Hard Walking Hanna (parts 1 & 2)". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Lisa Marie Presley's new album true to her roots
June 22--Lisa Marie Presley admits she was nervous about how some people might receive "Storm and Grace," her Americana-inspired departure from her rebellious rock endeavors.
But she's never felt more "at home" with an album.
"It's a shift in every way," says the 44-year-old only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, who performs at the Roxy Theatre on Tuesday in support of the moody new set, with its rootsy, confessional slant.
"Yes, it requires a lot more legwork and getting out there to back it up, unlike the instant gratification of a more poppy record, but I'm definitely more comfortable in this arena. It's more authentic."
In fact, Rolling Stone hails it as "the album she was born to make -- a raw, powerful country, folk and blues collection that finds her embracing her Southern roots and family name."
Presley, who was on the line midtour from Des Moines, Iowa, says she stumbled on the sound naturally.
On the heels of 2003's "To Whom It May Concern" and 2005's "Now What," which both debuted in the top 10 of Billboard's Top 200 albums chart, Presley retreated to the English countryside with her guitarist husband Michael Lockwood and their twin daughters, now 3, to reconsider her path and recharge.
"You couldn't get any more normal: It's unpretentious and people really care about each other, which is something I never got to witness while I was growing up," says Presley, who was raised in Graceland, Elvis' Memphis estate. "There's just something so 1950s about it to me."
It's there she eased her way back into writing.
"I started off doing what I was normally used to doing, which was getting together with rock songwriters, and the first few songs I wrote were in my normal comfort arena. But as things progressed over eight months and new people came in (the roots sound) really came to fruition on its own," she says. "There was nothing contrived about it.
"Mostly, it was because I stopped trying to overdo everything and over-sing everything and overproduce everything," Presley adds. "It was like, just go with this melody and stop trying to be so complicated and tortured about it. It was a real breakthrough for me."
The album was produced by 12-time Grammy winner T Bone Burnett and released last month to positive reviews.
USA Today calls it Presley's "first genuine musical statement." According to NPR, she's "finally settled into a comfortable groove as an artist."
Presley, who has since relocated to a tiny English village (where the only other celebrity is Jeff Beck) in addition to keeping a home in Los Angeles, says the real payoff has been the response from the audience during the shows.
"To be honest, this record is so much more comfortable for me on so many levels," she says. "It's not a masterpiece but it's the best I've done. I'm really proud of it."

Why Monitor Birds?
1. Your nest observations help us to better understand the impacts of environmental change on bird populations.
Long-term datasets become more valuable each year and are vital to scientists in helping them understand and predict the effects of climate and land-use changes on birds. As these impacts may vary with latitude, weather conditions, and habitat type, it is important to study them at continental or even global scales.
2. Studies of nesting birds can increase our understanding of population ecology, conservation biology, and behavioral ecology.
Most nesting birds can be observed closely without harm to the birds or to the humans watching them. Therefore, it is relatively easy to collect large amounts of data on a wide range of topics such as variation of nesting habits and habitats, egg laying, clutch size, incubation periods, and overall nesting success. To accurately capture the details of bird biology and behavior on a broad scale, the scientific community needs the input of citizen monitors and amateur birders.
3. Because there is often intense competition among nesting birds for a limited number of suitable breeding sites, many species are decreasing in population.
Urbanization, habitat loss, predation, competition with non-native birds, disease, pollution, and a host of other factors all can contribute to reduced reproductive success in birds. Monitoring nests over long periods of time creates baseline data that can be used to help detect changes in the abundance, distribution, and overall productivity of breeding bird populations. The ability to detect changes in reproductive performance is a crucial part of assessing population health and developing conservation guidelines or implementing management activities.
4. The biological effects on bird populations of providing and monitoring nest boxes are not well known.
Hundreds of thousands of nest boxes have been provided to help bird populations, but many are infrequently monitored and data that are collected are not always analyzed. Gathering basic information about nest inhabitants, and then subjecting that information to scientific scrutiny, is the first step toward assessing the effect of nest boxes on the cavity-nesting birds that use them.
5. Nest monitoring increases our appreciation for birds and the natural world.
Regular trips to nests enable people to witness the labors of parent birds, from the start of nest building, up to the time the young reach independence. Witnessing and understanding the nesting cycle can increase appreciation and respect for birds, which can lead to increased protection of birds.

Oh glorious day
I haven't been talking about it because it made me want to puke every time I thought about it. And I couldn't handle any more good wishes. Now I am happy crying and my stomach has untied itself.
OK, going back to bed. It's 7:30 here and I have been up since 6am because I couldn't sleep.
63 comments:
MAN, it's times like now that I HATE the written word. It is so ineffective at expressing the appropriate level of excitement. There just aren't enough exclamation marks in the world to do justice.
I am so very, very happy for you both. I want to cry for you- I know how very much this means to both of you, I know how long A has been working toward this goal, and I know how heartbreaking (no, soul-breaking is more the right word) his past bar results have been. I just- I don't have words for how awesome it is to hear that news from you.
I also know what that means in this shitty economic time to have yet another avenue of employment open (which means that I also know what this means for your ability to pursue treatments). Amazing and wonderful.
WOW. Congrats, A! I know how hard you worked for this, and I couldn't be happier for you! Wooohoooooooo!HOLY SHIT, that's awesome! Finally, A is getting a well-deserved break from the cruel harsh fates.
May this be the wave that signals the turning of the tide, dear Io! I feel some good stuff on the horizon for you two.
How're those kitties of yours?
Oooh, I'm just so thrilled for both of you.

My son has worn these for several years, and just loves them for casual wear around the house. We have only been able to find them here at HS, and so get him a pair every year or two for Christmas. Usually we have to back order them, but that's okay because his birthday is in January, and we give them to him then. This year we got in early. He needs them ASAP - his "old" pair and his "old old" pair both got chewed by their puppy! He likes them for their fit, comfort, and durability. Apparently so does the puppy.I have not tried them because they don't come in size 14. If they did, I'd buy a pair based on my son's enthusiasm for them.

The best slippers you ever owned
By Greek Geek
from Bergen County, NJ
I have been shopping for slippers for a very long time and have not been able to locate comfortable ones. I need a proper arch (not too high, but not flat either) for proper support and none of them compare to these. They are just perfect. The look beautiful too, if you are into the more conservative but modern look. Highly recommended. I bought another pair just in case they don't make them any more.

Hi Dentrk,
Could you provide any logs from your diagnostics? Which diagnostics are you running?
Can you do "clusrun dir" from an elevated cmd window on your headnode?
28 февраля 2012 г. 0:58
It's an old error that is not-so-easy-to-find-reason.
Can you ping your nodes by their FQDN? Try ping nodes by their FQDN from head node and ping headnode by its FQDN from nodes.
28 февраля 2012 г. 13:22
there are no logs form diagnostics because they never start they just say failed to run start time is blank they never run and there is no results in lower panes
28 февраля 2012 г. 13:39
i can ping all nodes from the headnode using fqdn.. the only thing i can think of is there are two network cards in headnode blade and it creates a virtual adapter as well .i have configured the network setting in hpc manager to use each one of them and the result is the same failed to run the tests never start

I had a problem with out cluster using two network interfaces (eth & infiniband) at the same time. Tests are failed and software worked unpredictably. Sadly, i had to disable one of the interfaces and all errors passed away.
Maybe you can try to disable on of the interfaces?
So, when you installed your cluster, which topology did you choose?
1 марта 2012 г. 21:23
i have disble all adapter except one and tests still fail with same error i will try to remove the 2008 hpc pack and reinstall it to see it changes the result
i choose topology 5 all nodes directly connected to enterprise netowrk ( or all nodes connected to the network each server/blade only has one active netowrk card at present
thanks for help

Poor Design from incase
After searching for the Nike+ armband in stores and having no luck, I turned to the Apple Store. I found this armband and research ed it online, mostly to find negative reviews. I decided to give it a go anyways and spend the $39 for this armband. Let me say, I am glad Apple has a 2 week product return policy because this armband is going right back to the store.
After only 2, short, 5k runs with this armband, the plastic on the front is cracking, and even though I do not have huge biceps this armband makes it feel like I'm getting my blood pressure taken. The "cord management" system is the biggest crock I've ever seen, and as 1 reviewer said on here previously, it won't be long before that cheap piece falls off. Try accessing the volume buttons on this baby, again virtually impossible and certainly not as easy as it should be for almost $40. …- Written by Sean B from SAINT CLAIR TOWNSHIP

Poor design
Designed by idiots, The band around the arm does not stretch, therefore when you bend your arm (In the human body this causes the biceps to flex.. Duh!) The band then becomes too tight inhibiting blood flow. The natural reaction to this is to adjust the band with the arm bent... fine until you straighten your arms down by your side again.... then the band slides down and off your arm... unbelievable.
It is a really ridiculous design, if the shop was not so far away I would return the product stating the UK sale of goods act which requires products be fit for purpose...This item is not! …- Written by John H from Cheltenham

Bought it based on the cord holder, which turns out to just be a piece of velcro attached to the side, a loose piece at that.

Best Answer
It is, up to a point. But it won't fit big biceps, I think. I have larger biceps and, while it still fits, I can tell that should my arms get a lot bigger it won't fit eventually. The strap isn't elastic, so it's also rather uncomfortable since it doesn't stretch as your muscle flexes. …
