EALC 415 Modern Japanese Literature in Translation: Love, Gender and Sexuality in Modern Japan
This course will focus on the themes of love, gender and sexuality in modern Japanese literature and popular culture. It will also explore the relationship between these themes and general concepts of "culture" and "history." Is love a universal, immutable humanemotion or is it one that varies with cultural tradition and according to historical period? What were Edo-period (1600-1868) conceptions of gender and sexuality? How were Western conceptions of love, gender and sexuality translated into Japanese? How did theJapanese reconfigure their traditional conceptions as the nation was transformed by modernization during the late 19th and early 20th centuries? The course offers students both a survey of major literary works from the modern period and a theoreticalintroduction to the field of cultural studies. Students wishing to obtain graduate credit for this course should register for 4 units.

ELDER MUSIC: Summertime
This Sunday Elder Music column was launched in December of 2008. By May of the following year, one commenter, Peter Tibbles, had added so much knowledge and value to my poor attempts at musical presentations that I asked him to take over the column. He's been here each week ever since delighting us with his astonishing grasp of just about everything musical, his humor and sense of fun. You can read Peter's bio here and find links to all his columns here.
It's time for another variation on a single song and the one today is Summertime. This was from the opera "Porgy and Bess" by George Gershwin. The lyrics weren't by his brother Ira, who wrote them for most of George's songs, but by DuBois Heyward upon whose novel, Porgy, the opera is based.
The song pretty soon became a standard and entered the lexicon of popular and jazz singers. We'll have some of them today as well as a couple of interesting instrumental versions.Also one or two that I hope will surprise you.
According to Wikipedia, it's the most covered song in history and there are more than 25,000 recorded versions out there. Not all of those will be present today.
We might as well start with the best, BILLIE HOLIDAY.
It sounds as if Billie was born to sing this song. Of course, she sounded as if she was born to sing anything she tackled. Hers was the first version to make the charts, back in 1936. She has Count Basie and his band backing her on this one.
It was a tossup between LOU RAWLS and Johnny Hartman for this spot. Lou called heads.
Lou started out as a gospel singer and while still a boy he sang with Sam Cooke, who wasn't much older than Lou, in a gospel group. He also met and sang with Curtis Mayfield around the same time.
Over the years Lou has sung gospel, soul and R&B music but he was always essentially a jazz singer as is amply demonstrated on his version of Summertime.
BILL EVANS was one of the best jazz pianists. This assessment of his abilities was shared by Miles Davis who requested that he join (or rejoin, really) him to record the "Kind of Blue" album.
Bill was classically trained; he started lessons on the piano when he was only six. He was also proficient on the flute and violin.
He rebelled against the restrictions of classical music – he wasn't allowed to improvise so he switched to jazz in his early teenage years and started playing professionally before he was 20. Unfortunately, he had a long-time problem with drugs and he died at age 51.
To give us a rock & roll perspective on the song here's Janis Joplin in front of BIG BROTHER AND THE HOLDING COMPANY.
This was a regular inclusion in their live sets and appeared on their most famous album "Cheap Thrills". Instead of that one here's the song from a live album of theirs "Live at The Carousel Ballroom," recorded in 1968.
The two versions are quite similar and this one gives a flavor of their live performance.
♫ Big Brother and the Holding Company - Summertime
SAM COOKE could make any song sound perfect, or nearly so in this case.
However, he really didn't need that chorus behind him, adding nothing at all to the song. I guess they did that sort of thing back then. Fortunately, they aren't too intrusive.Sam's version sounds to me like a soul song interpreted as a country tune.
LAMBERT, HENDRICKS AND ROSS have the shortest version of the song and maybe the most interesting.
As was often the case when LH&R interpreted a song, they took it and ran with it taking it to places no one had gone before. That certainly happened this time.
LH&R's career wasn't very long, only about five years. Annie Ross first left the group and not too long afterwards, Dave Lambert was killed in a car accident. Jon Hendricks and Annie Ross are still with us as of this writing and occasionally perform together.
♫ Lambert, Hendricks and Ross - Summertime
The version that reached the highest spot on the charts is by BILLY STEWART.
This one always brings a smile to my face as it's so outrageous, although following that one by LH&R it may not seem so.
Billy won a local (Washington D.C.) talent contest with his version of our song. He had honed his singing in his mother's gospel group, The Stewart Gospel Singers. Bo Diddley heard him and hired Billy to play piano in his group. He eventually got Billy a recording contract and Summertime was one of his first releases.
MILES DAVIS recorded an entire album of "Porgy and Bess" music.
I used him on a previous column dedicated to "Porgy and Bess" where, fortunately, I featured It Ain't Necessarily So from Miles so I won't be doubling up. This is his version of Summertime.
There have been several different versions of THE DRIFTERS. The two most notable ones were fronted by Clyde McPhatter and Ben E. King.
I listened closely to this version and I'm pretty sure it was neither of those singing lead. The CD is no help at all and nor is Dr. Google. Besides the "official" Drifters, there were others who used the name and as far as I can tell this is one of those.
I think it's a group purporting to be The Drifters and is fronted by Matthew Child. Whoever he is, he's a pretty fine singer.
I thought I was familiar with RICKY NELSON's music but this surprised me. It shouldn't have as it's on one of my CDs, so there you go.
It was the done thing back when Ricky was first recording that singers should become "all round entertainers" after a year or two in the rock & roll sun. Some resisted this pressure but others, like Ricky, recorded standards along with their usual songs.
Here is Ricky being an all round entertainer (sort of – this isn't quite as all round as some other songs).
Just missing the cut are versions by Johnny Hartman, Judy Garland, Kenny Burrell, Paul Robeson, Stan Getz, Peggy Lee and also a few other lesser known performers.

I have tried for years to find a copy of the movie "Porgy and Bess" starring Sidney Poitier, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dorothy Dandridge, etal. Any idea where I can find one?
I have heard a rumor that Mr. Poitier bought the rights to the movie and will not release it because it is "demeaning to blacks." Any truth to that, do you think? I love the music and would love to see the movie again.
Class of 65:
According to Wikipedia, it was removed by the Gershwin estate:
Such fun! I always enjoy your music posts, Peter. Thank you.
Glad you didn't leave out the ultimate version of Summertime, Tibs - has to be Billy Stewart's!!
I guess the better music survives the test of time when musicians of several generations like it well enough to give their interpretations -- or their record label told them to add it because it would be marketable -- as musicians have often complained was done back in the day.
Probably the musicians, musical arrangement versions we enjoy the most are those that come from each of our respective generations with lap-overs to some older and newer musicians. That said, as much as I revere Billie Holiday as a jazz force and enjoy a few of her tunes, I think other jazz vocalists (some who even defer to Holiday) deliver a much richer interpretation of this song -- but that's just my personal bias. Ella F.'s various interpretations cannot be surpassed.
I enjoy the instrumental selections of Bill Evans and Miles Davis you have here.
I appreciate much music from Lambert, Hendricks and Ross, particularly their influence on other groups, but their version of Summertime is not what I would consider one of their better arrangements. I always regretted their career as a group was so short.

Prima delle Prime
Le nozze di Figaro
"A. Toscanini" boxes foyer
"Prima delle Prime" is La Scala's cycle of public talks. Offered as a means of introducing and preparing audiences for playbill performances, talks are held several days before the first performance of ballets or operas in the Arturo Toscanini foyer, and feature discussions with field experts about the works in question, providing a great opportunity to find out more about lesser-known works and examine the most famous in greater detail.
The "Prima delle Prime" cycle is organised and made possible by the Amici della Scala ("Friends of La Scala"), a not-for-profit association that supports La Scala's fringe activities.
Under the banner of the "Prima delle Prime" series, the La Scala Ballet also organises conferences, with video screenings, to introduce the season's ballets. These talks are also held in the Arturo Toscanini foyer, with the same start time and the same conditions of entry.
No tickets are required to access the Arturo Toscanini foyer: members of the audience are simply requested to present themselves at the theatre's main entrance in good time. For health and safety reasons, numbers are limited to 150 attendees and entry is regulated by ushers.
On this occasion, Giorgio Pestelli will speak on Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro, to be performed at La Scala from 23 March, with the aid of live piano excerpts. His talk is titled: "Una poetica macchina musicale".

Reviewer is A current student here.

Categories Comments What to do for fun
Other students tell me that there are fun things to do on campus and in the surrounding area, but I have rarely participated. I live some distance away, commute for classes, and spend any extra on-campus time hanging out in the lounge or library.
Food and Dining
I ususally bring my own lunch to school and heat it up in the microwave, because I live off-campus, so there is no need for me to pay cafeteria prices. On the few occasions when I have eaten cafeteria food, it has been pretty good, especially this year.
Dorm Life
I commute, so I do not know what the dorm life is like.
Academic Rigor
I came to Davis already knowing a lot about the Bible and ministry, but I found that they still had a great deal to teach me. I have learned and grown so much in the time I have been here, and I am so much more ready to take on the tasks that God gives me!
Tips for prospective students
Don't be afraid to speak up in class, as long as it is on topic. The professors actually like it, even if you disagree with them. Just make sure you are respectful of their position as teachers, and their (and other students') beliefs and opinions.
In three sentences
Davis College is a small school with a friendly atmosphere. The focus is on pursuing God in academics and everything else. My favorite thing about this school is the way the faculty really take the time to show us that they care about us personally and academically.

RALEIGH - United States Attorney Frank D. Whitney announced that JERRY GASKILL, 63, of Cedar Island, N.C., former Director of the North Carolina Department of Transportation's Ferry Division, was convicted today by a jury in United States District Court, in Raleigh, North Carolina with making a material false statement to a federal agency and aiding and abetting the same, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1001 and 2.
Evidence presented at trial showed that GASKILL submitted and caused to be submitted false statements to the United States Army Corps of Engineers in connection with an investigation of "prop washing," that is, an unauthorized dredging by the use of the propellers of NC DOT vessels in navigable waters near Corolla, North Carolina. On June 25, 2004, after the commencement of state and federal regulatory investigations, GASKILL signed and submitted a written false statement claiming that the creation of the channel was unintentional. The false statement obstructed the agency's effort to determine the violator so that remediation efforts could begin at the site.
The unauthorized prop washing created a 730-foot long by 30-foot wide by 5-foot deep channel which resulted in the destruction of an essential fish habitat that supports commercially important fish and wildlife species found in the area.
GASKILL could receive a maximum sentence of 5 years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, and 3 years of supervised release. A sentencing date has not been set.
United States Attorney Frank D. Whitney stated that "there must be strict adherence to the environmental regulations protecting the natural resources in the Eastern District of North Carolina. This case reflects our office's on-going commitment to pursuing those persons and entities who willfully disregard those regulations or otherwise interfere with a regulatory investigation."
"The jury found that the defendant misled authorities regarding the illegal dredging of a 'nationally important' marine and wildlife habitat," said Fred Burnside, Special Agent in Charge of EPA's Criminal Investigation Division - Atlanta Area Office. He further stated "this conviction sends the clear message that no violator – public or private is above the law."
Investigation of the case was conducted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation, and the United States Coast Guard Investigative Service with the assistance of the United States Army Corps of Engineers - Wilmington District. Assistant United States Attorneys Banumathi Rangarajan and Thomas B. Murphy prosecuted the case for the United States.
News releases are available on the U. S. Attorney's web page at www.usdoj.gov/usao/nce within 48 hours of release.

Thread: Can anyone help? child behaviour
January 9th, 2005 #1
Can anyone help? child behaviour
Hi all ,
Don't know if anyone can help me with this but i'll give it a shot
A friend of mine is doing a psychology paper on child behaviour, specifically on the subject of a crying baby when its asleep. I've allready googled a bit on the subject but didn't come up with any specific info. ( i'll keep trying tho' )
Dr. Benjamin Spock, a well known pediatrician, reffers to the problem as follows :
( in a nutshell ) : If you let a baby cry and not give in to his request of attention , eventually he will stop crying . In the beginning it may take a while but eventually the baby will stop crying and fall asleep ultimately ending in a baby that doesn't cry anymore during the night because he notices that crying doesn't resolve anything. ( pfff, pardon me my bad english but i can't really explain it in other ways than this )
Now the question is : Can this approach have bad side effects specifically : concerning the emotional independence of the baby, child or adult in a further life?
So i need info regarding the question. I know its a long shot but.....
If anyone can help me out here a bit that would be much appreciated
Thanx ,

I saw a TV program once, "Super Nanny" I think, and the Nanny said that it was best to let the baby cry until it got bored and fell asleep. But only under certain circumstances:
Apparently, you can tell if the baby is crying for attention by the tone of its cry. If it is in distress, the tone is different. The nanny said that you shouldn't yield to its cries for attention.
I don't personally think this would have any serious effects on the child's emotional development, but hey, I'm no expert.

well we had this exact same problem about 2 months ago, my nephew just started sleeping by himself (8 moths old) and he did not want to sleep by himself. the problem was that my sister was catering to his very whim, and so he was triand to think that the more (and loder) that you cried youd eventually get your way. so we suggested that you let the baby cry for 20 min, and by that time the baby had stoped crying, sometimes befor the 20 min were up.and it eventually got it through its mind that crying is not the way to get what you want and eventually gave up. but if you can stand this for about a week then you will have it easier in the long run

I like Eskimo's approach to it. You give them a time in which they have to stop crying. Anything beyond is possibly a warning sign.
I've actually heard that parents that give into a crying baby immediately are actually spoiling the baby; if baby wants ANYthing a squeal will get immediate satisfaction from the parents. Talk about the tail wagging the dog!
January 12th, 2005 #5
we chose the "let em cry" thing when it became difficult to rock the baby to sleep (a task which i did enjoy). it helps to mark the time when you put them down so you can know how long they have been crying. what seems like forever might only have been 3 mins. if he doesn't stop crying after about 15mins we usually check on him. sometimes he just wasn't ready to go to bed, or maybe something interupted his routine like being put to bed somewhere new, maybe he pooped right after you laid him down, could be lots of reasons. after a few weeks he got the hang of the new bedtime routine. soon it got to the point where he usually doesn't cry at all and if he does it's only a minute or so. i don't see anything tramatic about this. in my opinion it's more damaging to the parents who cater to their children's every cry. those kids get insecure, they have to be rescued from EVERYTHING. we do always sneek in and check on him after we are pretty sure he is asleep.

I'm a new dad with a 1 month old, and my wife and I have done a TON of research on development, nutrition, etc. We've read the books "What to expect when you're expecting" and "What to expect the first year," talked to the OB/GYN as well as our pediatrician, my wife's sister (who's a pediatrician herself) and visited tons of websites about babies. Everyone says different things, from "It's good to let babies cry to clear the lungs of mucus from when they were in the womb," to "it's impossible to spoil a baby within the first year." My sister-in-law didn't put her first child in her own room until about 6 months old. Their second child went into her own room at about 6 weeks. I think you should learn to recognize your child's different cries and base your decision to either leave them to cry or to comfort them based on the sound. If your baby is in pain, it's cruel to let them wail for 20 minutes and suffer. They may remember it later in life and never move out of the house!!

It depends on the kid and the parents. My wife and I follow the Dr. Sears method, which is attachment parenting. Basically do your best to not let them cry. A lot of people roll their eyes at us, but now our almost eight month old never cries. We constantly get compliments about our happy baby where ever we go. We can easily eat at restaurants, she just smiles at us and plays (folowed by other patrons saying "oh what a happy baby, she's so well behaved, etc.").
My kid is amazingly secure, and we never let her cry it out. In fact she's afraid of very little, bedtime, falling over, loud noises, even crowds. She's amazingly happy. To be honest our friends with the 'cry it out' babies still have crying babies, and they usually scare easily and reach for mommy.
Not to mention a baby that feels secure learns more. Already my daughter is saying words associated to things (although she needs to work on her c's, our cat is a "tat" ). Not to mention rolling across the house, begining to crawl and great eye hand coordination. She's not even 8 months yet.
Even Dr. Richard Ferber disagrees with the 'cry it out' method, and he came up with it. Unfortunately he doesn't own the rights to his books, so they still use his name, even though he doesn't believe it.
You have to have a kid to actually judge what's best for them. Most all doctors, child psychologist, midwives, etc. believe that you can't spoil infants. In the end, you have to decide what's best for your child and you. All I know is we have a child that seems to learn quicker than most and is incredibly happy.
In the end every kid is different, but I know what works for us. It's harder work and that's why most people don't do it, but already it's paying off.

I'll have to read up on "attachment parenting". Dougbot, can you recommend any books?
Regarding Dr. Spock, that guy is a fuck. When I was a child, my stepfather beat me with his leather belt because that's what Dr. Spock recommending in his books. Then, many years later he recanted that and now recommends against that. I was mouthy when I was growing up, but no kid deserves getting slapped across the back of their thighs with a leather strap. He finally stopped when I laughed in his face but, man, did it hurt! If I EVER see that guy in public, I'm gonna confront him and see how he likes my belt. BASTARD!

Absolutely. Again, it's just what we use, and might not be for everybody. Here's Dr. Sears main site: http://www.askdrsears.com/ . You can find all of Sears' books on it. Here's his basic seven tools: http://www.askdrsears.com/html/10/t130300.asp
There's more out there, I'll ask my wife later today some of the other docter names who support this.
Just remember all kids are different (as I'm sure you know), so all parenting styles will be different. This one just works for us.

I went on record with my stance on the Brandon Spikes Eye Gouging controversy earlier this week. My point is, that in any given football game there are countless instances of excess violence and subsequent repurcussion. These often do not play out in front of the crowd, they happen away from the play or at the bottom of the pile.
Here is a little quid pro quo. Illegal hit away from the play against Son of God Tebow. I want Tebow to father my children in my stead, and I'm not even that pissed abou this. Florida and Georgia REALLY hate each other, and this stuff happens. Even the Georgia RB who was the victim of attempted gouging said that he didn't think Spikes should be suspended. Now lets all put on some pants on go on with our lives.
Emergency Speakerboxx(x) update: Brandon Spikes will be suspended for the entire next game, not the first half. TYSOTB editorial staff is appropriately indignant. And no, Kornheiser, Spikes was not "trying to remove his eyeballs from their sockets." Check out the men's department man.
Speakerboxx(x) update correction: Only two thirds of the editorial staff is appropriately indignant.

I don't hang out in bars very often and would much rather go see a movie anyway. Which isn't to say that I don't enjoy bars; I just don't go out much. In my spare time, I'm usually up for just about anything. I love to play poker, travel, watch movies, ride roller coasters, play board games, play air hockey.... I once ran a marathon just to se if I could. I enjoy listening to classic rock, 80's and 90's rock, and just about anything that catches my ear. I also enjoy hiking and exploring the outdoors, and would like to have more time for activities like camping (love the Redwood Forest). I would love to meet someone who will challenge me to be the best person I can be and at the same time appreciate who I am (and vice versa). I'd like someone who enjoys outdoor activities such as running, swimming, hiking, bike riding, mountain climbing, etc. as well as watching movies. I'm a huge fan of movies and usually end up watching a fair amount of them in the theater. I would also like to explore the area some more and check out all the quirky bars and restaurants that surround us, and for that I would really like to have a partner in crime. Long term, I am looking for someone who can help me with my quest to take over the world. I love to go out an have fun and I like to try new things. I am always busy with work ( I am a Navy officer) but I do have some free time and would love someone to go out with, to talk to, to chill with. I still like the idea of going on wild adventures, But I don't want to do them by myself anymore. I hope to find someone who likes zombie movies and random adventures to help me try to take over the world. If she happens to be smart, funny and beautiful as well, that's even better. If you've read this far, go ahead and send me a message or wink or something. I'd love to meet you!

When I have some time to spare, I really enjoy watching a good movie, taking a long bike ride, playing poker or taking a road trip somewhere.
Aside from some books on poker, I haven't had the chance to sit down and read a good book in a while. A few that I read a while ago and really enjoyed were The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and The Art of War.

Feds accused Dr. Farid Fata of fraud, prolonging chemo for cancer patients
ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. - Dr. Farid Fata's website for his Michigan Hematology Oncology practice promises the "Best Cancer Care – Anywhere." But, U. S. Attorney Barbara McQuade says otherwise.
Federal agents arrested the 48-year-old doctor at his Rochester Hills practice. McQuade says he's charged with healthcare fraud for his role in a scheme to submit false claims to Medicare for treatments that were medically unnecessary. McQuade says the fraud scheme involves $35 million.
Federal officials are alleging an even worse crime than cheating Medicare -- in their criminal complaint against Fata, FBI agents say "Dr. Fata directed the administration of unnecessary chemotherapy to patients in remission."
The feds say he also deliberately misdiagnosed patients "as having cancer to justify unnecessary cancer treatment," WXYZ reported.
Federal agents say Fata directed the "administration of chemotherapy to end-of-life patients who [would] not benefit from the treatment," and deliberately misdiagnosed "patients without cancer to justify expensive testing."
Federal agents say Dr. Fata owns and operates Michigan Hematology Oncology Centers (MHO) which has offices in Clarkston, Bloomfield Hills, Lapeer, Sterling Heights, and Oak Park.
Federal agents also searched Fata's house as well as Fata's other offices in Clarkston and Bloomfield Hills.
The FBI also took evidence from Fata's United Diagnostics, which is just down the street from his Rochester Hills oncology office.
The FBI took boxes into the Rochester Hills location to start executing their search warrant. Agents were likely looking for patient records and other evidence. We also saw federal agents remove about 100 boxes of evidence at the end of the day.
Patients who have questions concerning their medical records and/or information regarding this investigation and prosecution can call the United States Attorney's Office Information Line at 888-702-0553.
"I think it's terrible if he's giving them therapy and they didn't have cancer," said 85 year old Pat Winowiski. She's fighting cancer in her lungs and liver and she's shocked her doctor was arrested Tuesday.
"It's very upsetting because I really liked him," said Winowiski.
"I trusted him," said patient Terri Mitchell
After more than 7 years of treatment with Dr. Fata, Mitchell says she's starting to doubt her diagnosis.
"I can't understand – I've talked to many people and they've said I don't understand why you're still on Retuximab for the last 7 years – cause he told me at the beginning it would be a year of treatment and 2 years of maintenance," said Mitchell.
It's clear from court records that current and former employees have turned into informants – concerned about what was happening to patients. One described working for Fata as "living with this hell."
But nothing the feds can say will convince Sally Kelley that the doctor she calls "gentle and loving" could have harmed anyone.
"I don't believe a word of it, I have total faith," said Kelley.
Dr. Fata faced a federal magistrate Tuesday afternoon. Assistant U. S. Attorneys assigned to the case argued Fata is a flight risk because he has access to about $14 million in liquid assets and a home in Lebanon. The magistrate is temporarily detaining Fata until another hearing can be held on Thursday. He faces up to 20 years behind bars if he's convicted.
Fata's wife is the CFO of his company, and the couple has three young children.

The Orioles have passed the halfway point in spring training and there is plenty that we still don't know about them, but you have to like what has happened at the Ed Smith Stadium facility so far.
Almost nothing.
The first four weeks have been surprisingly uneventful. There have been no major injuries and no big off-the-field problems, unless you count the fact that shortstop J.J. Hardy actually lost a game of ping pong the other day. The tone has been upbeat throughout, except the part where all the players in the Orioles clubhouse keep talking about the unfinished business to need to attend to in 2013. Nothing wrong with that.

By the casual runner's standards, the low 70 degree temperatures at Shelly Ellig Field Wednesday would have been a bit much.
But just before 4:30 p.m., the Valley City High School boys and girls track and field teams went out in full force.
On the turf in the football field's sidelines, the distance runners finished another run and took a quick breather, watching the sprinters do quick laps around the track. Off in the distance, the field athletes are taking turns throwing.
It's a far cry from last March when the team was stuck inside, running the halls of the school and lifting weights as the city lay under a blanket of snow.
The athletes themselves, they're okay with it.
"Last year I think we ran inside until April," said senior Joey Halgrimson. "We had to cancel our first couple of outdoor meets because we still had snow, and of course over here (near Ellig Field) we had water coming over the dykes, so we couldn't do much outside. It's been great."
It's been so nice, in fact, that coach Trevor Bakalar said many of the team's indoor meets, which are scheduled until the outdoor season starts April 3, could potentially be moved outdoors and give athletes a few more chances to qualify for state.
The season continues Monday at the Thundering Herd Classic at North Dakota State University's Bison Sports Arena in Fargo.
Last year the teams qualified seven athletes for state. Mary Faure was the only one who graduated, leaving plenty of senior experience, including Molly Willson, Jenna Jacob and Allyson Suhr for the girls, along with Halgrimson and Paul Viland for the boys. All five were among the state qualifiers last year.
Bakalar expects performances similar to last year.
"We lost some good kids, but we've also got a big group of juniors that really filled out our rosters and they moved up to seniors this year," Bakalar said.
On the girls side, Jacob and Willson look to be the top sprinters for the team. Both qualified for state in the 100 meter dash last year and were members of the 400 and 800 relay teams with Mary Faure and Mariah Olstad.
He also expects to see success from 8th grader Brienne Roehrich, who had two top-12 finishes at the team's season opening meet last weekend in Moorhead, Minn.
Suhr will lead her team in distance and qualfied for state in the 800 last year. Bakalar said her main focus this year is the mile, though Suhr also hopes the team can do well in the 3,200 relay, which narrowly missed state qualifying last year.
In the field, senior Jenna Coghlan returns after qualifying for state last year, and the team had early success this season from shot putter Tonya Van Dyke.
Halgrimson looks to be one of the top state contenders for the boys, having qualified last year in the discus. Halgrimson is one of the top sprinters and could qualify in both track and field. He'll potentially be joined by a pair of fellow seniors, distance runner Nick Lee and Viland, a pole vaulter. Bakalar said thrower Adam Lang could also be a contender for a state spot.
Bakalar said the goal this year is for the athletes to set as many personal bests as possible.
"That's the big push this year is for them to show improvement personally and that's going to help the team," he said.

DURHAM, N.H. – Four players scored in double figures for the University of New Hampshire Wildcats en route to a 73-65 victory over the University of Baltimore County Retrievers, Sunday afternoon at Lundholm Gymnasium.
Candace Williams (Norfolk, Mass.) earned America East Player of the Game honors as she led the Wildcats with 19 points, 11 rebounds and a career-high four assists, registering her eighth double-double of the season and her second against the Retrievers this year. She also tallied one block and one steal, while going 8-for-12 from the charity stripe.
|ABIGAIL LaROSA
Abigail LaRosa (Hampton, N.H.) notched the first career double-double of her young career as she scored 17 points, pulled in 10 rebounds and tallied three assists. Amy Simpson (Waterford, Conn.) scored 11 points in the contest, all of which came in the second half. She also collected four rebounds, three assists and one steal. Lauren Wells (West Chester, Pa.) came up one point shy of her career high as she registered 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting, including 2-of-3 from beyond the arc. She also tallied two assists and two steals.
After trading baskets with UMBC for much of the first half the Wildcats put together an impressive 15-0 run to close out the opening stanza with the score 32-17. Williams sparked the run for the 'Cats as she broke a 17-17 tie with a 3-pointer from the left wing at 4:35.
On the ensuing possession LaRosa drilled a jumper to push the Wildcat lead to five with the score 22-17, just moments after ripping down the defensive rebound on the other end.
Moments later Williams pulled in an offensive rebound off a Chrissy Hall (Northbridge, Mass.) miss and put the ball in to give New Hampshire the 24-17 advantage at 2:28. From there the Wildcats were off and running as they would score eight points in the final two minutes of play to give UNH the 15 point lead heading into the second half. Jill McDonald (Middlebury, Vt.) and Wells provided the offensive spark during stretch as they each scored four points apiece.
New Hampshire picked up right where they left off in the first half during the final frame as went on an 11-7 run to start the stanza. Capped off with a LaRosa layup at 16:36, the Wildcats were able to assemble their largest lead of the afternoon as they held the 43-24 advantage.
The Wildcats would hold the comfortable advantage for the much of the half, until the Retrievers threatened the game with just under a minute to go as Carlee Cassidy drilled a 3-pointer from the right wing to cut the UMBC deficit down to four points with the score 68-64.
New Hampshire answered the call as LaRosa pulled in a rebound off a missed free-throw by Cassidy to passed the ball up court to an open and undefended Wells who layed the ball in with just 21 ticks left on the clock to make it 71-65, securing the win for the Wildcats.
Rachel Fowler (Glassboro, N.J) had a productive night for the Wildcats as she ripped down 11 rebounds and scored five points. Hall provided some spark off the bench as she scored five points and pulled in five rebounds, while also registering a career-high four steals.
Carlee Cassidy led the Retrievers with a game-high 24 points, scoring 21 of them in the second half of play on her way to being named America East Player of Game. She also registered four assists and three steals.
Katie Brooks and Michelle Kurowski also registered in double figures for UMBC as they tallied 12 and 11 points, respectively. Kurowski also pulled in four boards and tallied three steals for the visitors. Erin Brown also chipped in, coming up just short of a double-double as she scored nine points and tallied seven rebounds.
The Wildcats return to action Thursday, Feb. 12 when they travel to Maine to take on the rival Black Bears at 7 p.m. at the Alfond Arena.

|Hip-hop debuts don't come much more "highly anticipated" than Kendrick Lamar's. A series of killer mixtapes displayed his talent for thought-provoking street lyrics delivered with an attention-grabbing flow, and then there was his membership in the Black Hippy crew with his brethren Ab-Soul, Schoolboy Q, and Jay Rock all issuing solo releases that pleased the "true hip-hop" set, setting the stage for a massive fourth and final. Top it off with a pre-release XXL Magazine cover that he shared with his label boss and all-around legend Dr. Dre, and the "biggest debut since Illmatic" stuff starts to flow, but Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City would be a milestone even without the back-story, offering cool and compelling lyrics, great guests (Drake, Dr. Dre, and MC Eiht) and attractive production (from Pharrell, Just Blaze, Tabu, and others). Here, Kendrick is living his life like status and cash were extra credit. It is what makes this kid so "good" as he navigates his "mad" city (Compton) with experience and wisdom beyond his years (25). He's shamelessly bold about the allure of the trap, contrasting the sickness of his city with the universal feeling of getting homesick, and carrying a Springsteen-sized love for the home team. Course, in his gang-ruled city, N.W.A. was the home team, but as the truly beautiful, steeped-in-soul, biographic key track "The Art of Peer Pressure" finds a reluctant young Kendrick and his friends feeding off the life-force of Young Jeezy's debut album, it's something Clash, Public Enemy, and all other rebel music fans can relate to. Still, when he realizes that hero Jeezy must have risen above the game -- because the real playas are damned and never show their faces -- it spawns a kind of elevated gangsta rap that's as pimp-connectable as the most vicious Eazy-E, and yet poignant enough to blow the dust off any cracked soul. Equally heavy is the cautionary tale of drank dubbed "Swimming Pools," yet that highlight is as hooky and hallucinatory as most Houston drank anthems, and breaks off into one of the chilling, cassette-quality interludes that connect the album, adding to the documentary or eavesdropping quality of it all. Soul children will experience d?j? vu when "Poetic Justice" slides by with its Janet Jackson sample -- sounding like it came off his Aunt's VHS copy of the movie it's named after -- while the closing "Compton" is an anthem sure to make the Game jealous, featuring Dre in beast mode, acting pre-Chronic and pre-Death Row. This journey through the concrete jungle of Compton is worth taking because of the artistic richness within, plus the attraction of a whip-smart rapper flying high during his rookie season. Any hesitation about the horror of it all is quickly wiped away by Kendrick's mix of true talk, open heart, open mind, and extended hand. Add it all up and even without the hype, this one is still potent and smart enough to rise to the top of the pile. ~ David Jeffries

Artist Overview
Compton, California's Kendrick Lamar initially rapped as K. Dot and released a series of mixtapes under that name. Youngest Head Nigga in Charge (2003), Training Day (2005), and C4 (2009) preceded his decision to go by his birth name. Overly Dedicated, released in 2010, was the first Kendrick Lamar mixtape and fared well enough to enter Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart that October. Lamar's first official album was released the following year; Section.80, issued on Top Dawg Entertainment, entered the Billboard 200 at number 113. From 2009 through 2011, he appeared on tracks by Big Pooh, Jay Rock, Tech N9ne, and Game. ~ Andy Kellman

I can't help with the rtlinux stuff, but I thought I'd point out there
are a few LUGs a little closer to you. Off the top of my head:
Chico State LUG - http://www.cslug.org/
Reno LUG - http://www.rlug.org/
Roseville LUG - http://www.roselug.org/
Sacramento LUG - http://www.saclug.org/
In the meantime, you just missed an Installfest workshop. We had one this
past Saturday (August 27th). There are some more tentative ones
scheduled, though!
Good luck!!!

May earned her bachelor's in voice performance and psychology from Marygrove College in 1990. In 1994 she received her master's in clinical and humanistic psychology from The Union Institute in Cincinnati, Ohio, and her doctorate in philosophy from the institute in 1997.
She combines her passion for music and psychology into a multi-faceted career. She is president and co-founder of A. M. May & Associates, working as a clinical and organizational psychologist with subspecialties in forensic psychology and neuropsychology. She is also a voice instructor at Marygrove College for the Institute of Music and Dance.
Her professional accomplishments are many. While working at the Frank Murphy Hall of Justice as a forensic psychologist, May provided evaluations and recommendations to judges, attorneys and probation officers, and ran a domestic violence group for offenders. As an adjunct professor at the University of Phoenix, she taught organizational behavior and management, philosophy, psychology, and sociology. Although May was not a member of the Michigan Psychological Association, she was asked to serve as a diversity delegate on its board in 2000. In 2003 she was appointed chair of the diversity task force. Throughout graduate school to the present, she has mentored students in the Detroit-Metro Chapter of Black Psychologists. From 1999 to early 2004 she served as president, combining some of the organization's celebrations with events on Marygrove's campus.
Stage presence, warmth and the ability to think on her feet have put her in high demand as a presenter at conferences. Presentations include the Michigan Psychological Association, Michigan Youth Workers Association and the University of Michigan. She also has made numerous guest appearances on television and radio.
"She is a superb role model and a sunny, articulate mentor to our students and alumni," says colleague Karen K. Tracy.
May volunteers her time and resources to coordinate educational events for Marygrove students. She originated the annual Kwanzaa and Juneteenth celebrations to assist in bringing cultural awareness to students.
Generously sharing her talent, May and her family have volunteered their time to perform at Marygrove Christmas parties and Women's History Month programs. She also performed as a soloist at the Marygrove student comedy night celebration.
"Dr. May is a very talented vocalist and musician. She performs with polish, beauty and integrity," says colleague Lisa Jones-Brown.
According to May, the legacy of her family is one of helping others. Her maternal grandmother, Willie May Walton, mentored young people, and her paternal great-uncle, Copeland DeLoach, helped pioneer the union movement in Detroit. And they passed that commitment on to her.
"I absolutely do not believe in limitations. With God first there is no 'can't', and age truly is just a number!" she says. "I am always working toward the next goal, because I feel that I have much to do before my time is complete on this earth." Harmony is important to Dr. Angela Celeste May. In fact, her world revolves around it. Whether she's singing for an audience or using her psychology experience to work with people of diverse backgrounds, it is her goal to bring people together.

FORT WORTH, TX (PRWEB) July 18, 2014
HORSEtrailers.net today introduced a new and ground-breaking online platform designed to entirely transform the horse trailer shopping experience for consumers. The most technologically advanced site of its kind, HORSEtrailers.net employs an intuitive and modern user interface with state of the art tools to create a secure, simple, and effective way for users to research, locate and purchase the horse trailer of their dreams. Designed for optimized use on home computers, tablets and phones, the new Web site allows customers to search listings, evaluate trailer features, read customer reviews and compare prices at a glance.
The founder of HORSEtrailers.net, Nicole Robertson, recognized the need for this kind of website during her own experience searching for a new trailer online. "For most horse people, the purchase of a trailer is among the biggest expenses they will incur," says Robertson. "Our goal in creating the Web site was to provide users with access to a combination of critical information and relevant inventory listings from trusted sellers, all delivered expertly on their chosen device."
Drawing on her years of experience in digital marketing and data management, Robertson armed herself with extensive horse trailer industry research and assembled an expert team to develop the advanced platform. After conducting a broad review of horse trailer industry offerings and then analyzing data from an extensive consumer survey, Robertson then focused on providing features designed to help consumers make informed choices and to provide a positive user
experience. "Our team thought carefully about crafting the best ways to engage our customers in this website," said Robertson, "… we paid particular attention to the survey responses. We want them to both begin and end their search by acquiring the trailer of their dreams using HORSEtrailers.net."
The platform has already caught the attention of top trailer dealers nationwide and will feature inventory from more than 55 trailer dealers at launch. "HORSEtrailers.net has raised the bar on horse trailer sales by creating an entirely new shopping experience for consumers," said North American Trailer Dealers Association President, Andy Ackerman. "This is a breakthrough for trailer dealers too because it showcases their inventory and presents them with a better, more educated buyer - I see this as a game-changer for the industry."
HORSEtrailers.net visitors will enjoy a simple layout that contains four main content areas built specifically to address user concerns identified in the survey:
Shoppers will identify their dream trailer criteria and HORSEtrailers.net will instantly notify the user by email alert when a pre-qualified listing matching their needs is posted by a verified seller.
About HORSEtrailers.net:
HORSEtrailers.net was founded in 2014 by life-long rider and digital marketing entrepreneur, Nicole Robertson. She identified the need for a better solution when searching online for her own new horse trailer and assembled a team to create HORSEtrailers.net. For more information or to experience the platform firsthand, please visit http://www.HORSEtrailers.net or find them on Facebook.

'Fringe' has a fever, and the only prescription? More spinal fluid
The promo monkeys over at FOX promised us "the most awesome amazing OMG reveal EVER" in last week's preview. (I'm paraphrasing, of course. Sorta.) Did the show deliver? Not really. The supposedly shocking ending wasn't all that shocking to the trained viewer. Then again, it's hard to be shocked about someone you've never met. After the mythological majesty of last week's episode, this week of "Fringe" felt like a missed opportunity.
I perked up at first mention of the ZFT this week, glad to once again to be delving into the group at the heart of the events on the show. "Weird thing of the week" eps are fine and dandy, but they're best served with a heaping help of continuity. And as the show set up scientist Nicholas Boone with the same beats reserved for Mr. Jones, I was even more excited to see how things played out. Putting Boone in the room with Walter Bishop pushed things further towards the edge for me. And yet, the show left us dangling a few feet from said edge, content to wait until another week to completely send us over.
After a series of gruesome murders (like "Fringe" does any other kind), Dunham and Co. determine a connection to a "Lubov Pharmaceuticals" in Brighton, MA. Like most "pharmaceutical" establishments in Brighton, this one was less than on the up and up. But instead of being run by a few dropouts with a penchant for chemistry and the Chemical Brothers, this shop was run by a former ZFT scientist punished for trying to leave the sect. Punished how? By having his wife infected with the very concoction he was working on for them.
This serum turns his wife Valerie into...well, a vampire, essentially. Walter might not believe in vampires, but Mrs. Boone likes to expose her fangs and drink deep. However, instead of drinking blood, she drinks spinal fluid to counteract the contagion's effect upon her. Seems the ZFT are interested in bioweapon cocktails delivered via extinct strains of syphilis. But then again, who isn't?
Boone agrees to give Dunham answers on ZFT in exchange for her help in bringing Valerie back alive. While she and Peter scour the city in search of a pattern of her attacks, Nicholas and Walter share the laboratory in search of a cure for the contagion. Nicholas clearly looks at Walter as a god-like figure, not only for his scientific life but also as potential crafter of the ZFT manifesto itself. But the two never deal directly with this connection, instead opting to opine about the intersection of the thirst for knowledge and morality. Here's a hint: these men have probably passed the latter long ago, but both hold onto a glimmer of hope that redemption isn't too far past them just yet.
In fact, everything Boone does is towards said redemption. He doesn't double-cross the agents in service of a higher purpose; instead, he intentionally sacrifices himself to allow Valerie to ultimately live. Before giving an overdose of spinal fluid for the antidote, he also films a confessional in which he names...wait for it...William Bell as the primary funding source for the ZFT. Maybe I'm generally more excited by asking questions than getting answers, but doesn't that answer sound...obvious? Bell's whereabouts and motivations have always been in question since the pilot episode, and while Walter's past is morally murky at best, he's not our Big Bad. The Big Bad is Bell, plain and simple.
Other odds and ends from tonight's episode...
- If there's been a funnier exchange in the show's history than the one between Peter Bishop and the girl in The Cavern, I haven't heard it. "You're hot. But I'm looking for someone with syphilis." "Okaaaaaaay." FTW.
- "How far would you go for someone you love?" Well, that's the question, isn't it? And something tells me Walter and the Observer (seen early on in the club) once made a bargain for Peter's life centered around this very question.
- For the love of God, "Fringe," connect Rachel and Ella to the main storyline in some meaningful way. I'll do the dishes for like, a week, if you do this for me.
- "Two Singles, Together" sounds like just about the worst dating site ever. OK, maybe "One Schizophrenic, Alone" is worse.
All in all a decent episode; a let down after last week's episode, but miles better than LizardWaspBat from a few weeks ago. With William Bell finally on Dunham's radar, I'm hoping this is just a minor dip before a stellar run into the season finale.
Is there truly redemption for Walter? Do you think Rachel ultimately serves a purpose when all is said and done? And how long before someone close to Walter recognizes his connection to the ZFT?
Ryan uses less amusing pickup lines than Peter over at Boob Tube Dude.

Best summer in years
This summer has been the best since 2008, with almost 1.5 million tourists visiting the Costa del Sol between July and September, according to figures just published by the National Statistics Institute (INE).
A spokesman said this confirmed the slow but steady recovery of tourism on the Costa. He said the figure was not much lower than the 1.7 million visitors in 2008, when the economic crisis began to make itself felt.
However, the two main complaints continue to be that visitors are coming for shorter stays and spending less money.
