BEIJING – China's formidable propaganda apparatus came under renewed attack on Friday, when a denunciation spread online in the name of an employee of Xinhua, the main state-run news agency. The letter accused censors of using tactics reminiscent of Maoist times to silence and smear critics.
The letter reflected a growing discontent among journalists, academics and even party insiders about the tighter censorship and about the giddy exultation of President Xi Jinping in state-run media.
"Under the crude rule of the Internet control authorities, online expression has been massively suppressed, and the public's freedom of expression has been violated to an extreme degree," said the letter, which spread quickly online in China and was taken down just as swiftly.
The letter was issued in the name of Zhou Fang, who gave his work address as Xinhua News Agency headquarters in Beijing, and included his cellphone number and identity card number. A man who answered the phone at that number said that he was Zhou, an employee of Xinhua, and that he had written the letter.
"I don't deny that," he said. He said that he had been an editor at the news agency and that he now held an administrative job. "I can't say anything more, because you're foreign media," he said.
The letter appeared after Ren Zhiqiang, a blunt-speaking businessman, was bitterly denounced by state-run media in recent weeks after he chided comments by Xi.
This week, Caixin, a prominent business magazine, issued an unusually candid denunciation of censorship, after one of its articles — touching on censorship — was taken down.
The new letter criticized the denunciations of Ren on party-run websites, which called him a traitor and a subversive for taking issue with Xi's demand that state-run media unfailingly obey the party.
"The recent Internet security incident of 'surrounding and attacking Ren Zhiqiang' in a kind of Cultural Revolution-style mass criticism brought the delinquency of responsibilities and abuses of power by the Internet authorities to an extreme," said the letter, which was dated Monday but spread widely only on Friday.
"This has triggered tremendous fear and outrage among the public," the letter said. People, it said, have begun to "worry about another Cultural Revolution."
An administrator at Xinhua said it did have an employee named Zhou Fang. But the administrator said she had not heard of the letter and declined to check the personal details in it.
Zhu Xiaoding, a Chinese lawyer who issued the letter via Weibo, a microblog service similar to Twitter, said he had done so at the behest of a friend and was sure it was from Zhou of Xinhua.
Xi visited Xinhua and other major state-media news outlets last month, and emphasized that they must unabashedly serve the party.
The suggestion that Xi could take China back to the turmoil of the Mao era appeared likely to irritate authorities, who describe Xi as a bulwark of unflappable order.
This year is the 50th anniversary of the start of the Cultural Revolution in 1966, when Mao Zedong brought his methods of mass denunciation and vilification of foes to an extreme.
Some people fear that Xi is too willing to use harsh tactics that echo that time, said Zhang Lifan, a businessman and historian in Beijing whose father was persecuted under Mao.
"This era is different from the Cultural Revolution, when we were completely closed off," Zhang said. "Some of the mentality and methods from that time might persist. But people inside the system wouldn't like to see that happen again."

The self-organized structure, evolutionary dynamics, and stability to climatic fluctuations of marine food webs are the main focus of my current research. Oceanographers have only recently started to address these key aspects of theoretical ecology, with a more rigorous and mathematically formal approach, to marine ecosystems. Until very recently, most of the effort has been mainly directed towards more general biogeochemical modelling based on simple ecosystem models.
Simple biogeochemical models are not always capable of resolving the complex dynamics observed in real food web networks. The level of species diversity, the sign and strength of interaction between the species, the adaptive evolution of species-traits and interactions, are all going to affect the structure, functioning, productivity, and stability of ecosystems. My research aims at studying these fundamental aspects of the dynamics of marine ecosystems by using food web models of several degrees of complexity, built on first principles and trade-off rules.
My research is structured along 3 complementary lines of ecological theory. First, how marine ecosystems self-organize due to biophysical constrains and niche partitioning, and how the resulting food web structure affects the functioning and overall production of the ecosystem. Second, how changes in food web complexity will affect ecosystem stability to climatic perturbations. Third, how the evolution and adaptation of species-traits affects the fitness of the species present (or newcomers) in the community, and therefore to asses the impact of adaptive dynamics on food web structure, functioning and stability.
I am currently a Marie Curie Fellow in a joint project between the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Marine Sciences Institute of Barcelona (CSIC). Previously, I was a postdoc at the University of East Anglia (UK). I did my PhD at the Instituto de Ciencias del Mar (CSIC).

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Hebrews 11:1
I've had a song in my head the last couple of days, What Faith Can Do, by Kutless. It has a catchy beat, which caught my attention, but the words are what make it so powerful. This is the chorus:
I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do.
I love the line … broken hearts become brand new.
Our heart is one of the most vital organs in our body. When it stops, we stop. Yes, all parts work together, but without the heart pumping blood, nothing else works. We can even lose function of our brain, and our heart will keep pumping, but when the heart stops, we die.
In Proverbs 4:23, God tells us, Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
I don't think He's talking about our physical heart here, but rather our spirit; who we are inside. When our spirits are broken, it's hard for us to function properly. And once a heart / spirit is broken, it's hard to make it new again. It just doesn't work the same. Or we don't feel the same.
I delivered a little stillborn baby seven years ago. My heart was broken. I really didn't think I would ever be okay again. But …
With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26)
When we have faith in God, dreams become realities, hope flows, miracles abound, and broken hearts do become brand new!
Thank you Jesus for healing my heart and my hurts and for giving me hope and a future. Thank you for turning my dreams into reality. Thank you for loving me Jesus, first.
I love you!
In Jesus Name I Pray,
God's Blessings Upon You!
The Choices You Make Today
Will Affect Your Tomorrow

Using the free bonus money that all new players at Jackpot Capital receive, US resident Kerri T played a progressive jackpot game and won on one of her first attempts at Caribbean Stud.
"I guess you'd have to call it beginner's luck," said Kerri T. "I hadn't even made a deposit to my account – all it had in it was the free $25 they'd given me to get started. Next thing I knew I was withdrawing nearly fifteen grand!"
JackpotCapital offer over 300 games, all of which are provided by Real Time Gaming, who boast a status as one of the top gaming software providers in the world. Their biggest jackpot is currently at over $900,000.
"Most online casinos require you to wager many times the amount of your progressive jackpot winnings made from free bonus money before you can withdraw them, but we don't," said JackpotCapital CEO Oliver Smith "We don't let our players wait long for their winnings either."

Badam Burfi (Almond Squares)
Recipe by Anu_N
This easy-peasy sweet dish is a North Indian speciality that's rich and lick-your-fingers yummy... you can't possibly eat just one! Prep. time includes 20 minutes of cooling.
Top Review by Charishma_Ramchanda
You know, Anu, I feel its really "injustice" to give just 5 stars to this recipe. If I were a fairy, I would use my magic wand and give this recipe infinite stars. What an addictive recipe this is. I swear, I am no-good when it comes to making burfi, but, this one's come out SO GOOD, it looks as though its bought readymade! My Goodness, I can't wait to share it with everyone tomorrow morning! The preparation time, cooking time and number of servings, everything is PERFECT! These are so addictive! I scraped the pan clean and licked my fingers clean on the crumbs. What a delectible treat these will make in the coming winter months! I promise you, I will break my coming Friday fast, with this recipe of yours and pray to God to make all your dreams come true. I'd like to mention that I used 2 tbsps. of melted ghee for this. Another small thing that was missed in the recipe which could be handy for those who don't make burfis' regularly - you have to peel the almonds and only after peeling them, you have to grind them. I put them in water and heated them for a few minutes. This made the skin soft and easy to peel off! Anu, thanks COUNTLESS TIMES for posting this recipe. Why didn't I try this earlier?!

12 Feb Congratulations, Lecrae!
On Sunday night, Christian and hip-hop artist Lecrae Moore became the first MC to win the Grammy for Best Gospel Album. The man was detained on the red carpet and didn't actually get to accept the award, but he did get to take home the hardware.
Lecrae is a friend of Resurgence, and a personal friend as well. He loves Jesus. He has an amazing wife and family. And he is a faithful missionary for Jesus in the hip-hop and music cultures.
God has blessed Lecrae with a lot of wisdom, experience, and humility at a young age, and we've benefitted greatly from his work here on Resurgence. Here are some of the highlights:
- 2012 interview with Lecrae and me
- 2008 interview with Lecrae and me
- Lecrae leading worship at Mars Hill Ballard
- "Why You Need to Know Your Culture," by Lecrae
- Lecrae gave the talk "We Engage Culture for Jesus" at our Resurgence Conference last fall
Let's continue to pray for our brother as God shows him favor in what has to be one of the most challenging ministry environments there is. Congratulations, Lecrae!

U.S. Rep. Jon Runyan is well-liked by his constituents, who give him a 10-point lead over his opponent Shelly Adler in a poll released Thursday by The Stockton Polling Institute.
Runyan, a Republican and former Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman, is running for re-election after his first term representing the 3rd Congressional District, which includes most of northern Burlington and central Ocean counties. Adler, a Democrat, is the widow of John Adler, whom Runyan defeated in 2010.
The poll found that almost 47 percent of those surveyed said they would vote for Runyan if the election were today, compared with almost 37 percent who would vote for Adler.
The district is considered one of the most evenly contested and closely watched in the nation, targeted by both national Democrats and Republicans. Locally, it includes the townships of Lacey, Ocean, Barnegat and parts of Stafford.
More than 51 percent of the people polled had a favorable or very favorable opinion of Runyan, and 43 percent rated his work in the nation's capitol as either good or very good.
The poll also found that with little more than a month to go, Adler was unknown by a significant portion of the electorate.
Nearly 40 percent thought well of Adler, but nearly a third were unaware or didn't have an opinion of her. Fewer than 2 percent of those polled were unaware or had no opinion of Runyan.
The high marks for the sitting congressman come as the poll also found that barely more than 10 percent of the district thought Congress was doing an excellent or good job. About 48 percent thought it was doing poorly.
The poll also found that 3rd District voters were inclined to split their tickets.
It found that the district backs Democratic President Barack Obama 46 percent to 39 percent over Republican Mitt Romney. A somewhat more Democratically aligned district also supported Obama in 2008 by a 52-47 margin.
Third district voters also supported incumbent U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, D-NJ, 44 percent to 36 percent over his Republican challenger Joseph Kyrillos,a Monmouth County state senator.
Like Adler, Kyrillos has had problems attracting attention. While 34 percent thought favorably of him, another 41 percent had either no idea or no opinion of him.
District voters also like Gov. Chris Christie, a Republican, who has family in Lacey Township and for whom Ocean County voters provided crucial support in the 2009 election. Almost 57 percent of voters had a favorable opinion of him.
But they're split on his job performance: Slightly more than 50 percent thought he was doing a good or excellent job, while 48 percent rated it as fair or poor.
The poll of 614 likely voters was conducted by The Stockton Polling Institute at The William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy at Richard Stockton College of New Jersey between Sept. 28 and Oct. 2 and had a 4 percentage point margin of error. The institute plans additional polls this election season on this and the 2nd Congressional District, as well as on state-wide issues.

How to change the place of the field on notificationAsked by Vogelaar on July 13, 2016 at 03:02 AM
Hi, again I have problems wit a changed notification:
The "HUURBODEMS" is the only added row in the notification.
I have added this row between {120x100Goede113} and {100x120Nieuwe}
as you see it is changed to a place chosen by itself ;-)
If this is not working properly, there is no functionality of this "edit form" system at all...
Thanks for helping me out, because I see a lot of nice things I can do with this if it is working as expected!
Best regards
JotForm Support
You can edit your Notification email as desired. I cloned your form and updated the email notification message and I was able to add the row properly. Just ensure that you have save the changes properly.
If you have updated your notification but it was not reflected on your live form, please try to clear your form cache and see if it will help. You can check this guide for more information: How to Clear Your Form Cache.
Hello Chriistian
I know to save the notification table builder ;-)
Problem is that I insert the row on a special place, saved it, reopend it and it was still on the requested place.
After filling in a survey the notification builder is as shown in the screenshot.
So after a good build securely saved it changed.
Nothing I can do about...
I will try the clear form cache
JotForm Support
Please check and let us know if the issue still persists. It might be happening with the particular notification. You may also try creating a new notification to see if that helps.
Please get back to us if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.

It's possible to measure how you and your business are performing on dimensions other than those that show up on the balance sheet.
How well you lead, how well your teams work together and how well you communicate critically affect each other and influence the overall performance of your business at the bottom line. If you have clear and accurate data on these areas, then you can dramatically improve the impact and effectiveness of how you bring about change, as well as make performance improvements sustainable.
TAI has now developed its own suite of tools that measure how you and your teams are doing as leaders, as teams and as communicators. These tools enable us to get a base reading on where your strengths lie – and where there are opportunities to improve and transform critical individual and team competencies.
A base-line reading of these competencies enables TAI to diagnose current capabilities, accurately focus on elements of strength as well as those needing development and track performance improvements over time. Our individually tailored programs will focus on your specific needs.
TAI's Discovery Tools are administered on paper or online and take as little as 10 minutes to
Critical dimensions
These dimensions are about practical and highly actionable capabilities. By looking directly at how individuals, teams and leaders are doing on these dimensions we can focus directly in what clients need to do to improve. The Discovery Tools should be re-administered regularly (every three to six months) to monitor change and progress, often in conjunction with continuing TAI work.
Leadership: Presence, Insight, Inspiration, Innovation
Team Performance: Uncovering Alignment, Collaboration, Developing your People, Managing Conflict
Communication: Using Personal Qualities to Enhance Impact, Having Difficult Conversations, Telling Compelling Stories, Leading Interactive Discussions
Directly influenced performance outcomes include enhanced:
Pricing will be customized depending on client needs. There is a fee for delivery and administration of the tools, which will include a base level of feedback, as well as a separate fee for in-depth feedback with the client where a major individual engagement or business project for teams or large numbers is involved.

Kim K. Replaced In Super Bowl Ad
January 11, 2012 by staff
Kim K. Replaced In Super Bowl Ad, Kim Kardashian was featured in her first Super Bowl ad last year for Skechers Shape-Up shoe. Kardashian, the reality TV mega-star who was featured in the sneaker maker's racy Super Bowl commercial last year, has been dropped and will be replaced by a French bulldog.
The move comes about two months after Kardashian filed for a divorce from basketball star Kris Humphries. But Skechers executives insist that negative PR following the divorce filing has nothing to do with their decision. Mark Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, also has a cameo in the new spot.
"Kim got us more attention than we ever dreamed," says Leonard Armato, president of Skechers Fitness, who notes that Skechers is launching a high-tech running shoe business. "We have to establish Skechers as more than a lifestyle company."
In the spot, the tiny dog – bedecked in Skechers' new GOrun shoes – races a pack of greyhounds. But that, too, is raising eyebrows from an animal rights group Grey2K USA, which is petitioning to ax the ad. It claims that the greyhounds were mistreated and kept in tiny cages at Tucson Greyhound Park.
Skechers will feature a French Bulldog in its ad for this year's Super Bowl broadcast.
"Skechers using Tucson Greyhound Park as the backdrop for an ad is akin to Hertz calling back O.J. Simpson as a spokesperson," says Christine Dorchak, president of Grey2K.
But Tom Taylor, CEO of the track, says the cages are among the largest in the country. "Animal activists would like the cages to be 12 feet by 12 feet, with couches and TVs."
The American Humane Society says no animals were harmed in the making of the ad. Armato says Grey2K's complaints are unrelated to the purpose of the ad. The spot does not glamorize dog racing, he says. "It is simply a metaphor for a remarkable, underdog achievement."
While Skechers' contract with Kardashian expired at the end of 2011, her effect on the brand has been huge, Armato says. Two months before the 2011 Super Bowl, Skechers' Facebook page had 100,000 fans, but it now has 400,000 – much of which he attributes to Kardashian.

Building Tips:
There is a large area just to the side of the entrance that can be developed for a roller coaster. The tricky part is in placing the path. You'll have to build your path over the already existing ride.
Lower some of your ride costs and up the gate fee to $20.00. There's nothing like a steady stream of money coming in to raise your park value immensely.
To raise you parks value you'll also want to add at least one roller coaster and a bunch of smaller rides. Take advantage of the water areas. Building over the water is more affordable than trying to even out the hilly islands.

Ted Kennedy's Honorary Degree Looks Fishy
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
Lately, the ailing Ted Kennedy has been receiving all sorts of accolades for his decades of selflessly spending somebody else's money.
Kennedy's latest is an honorary degree from Harvard.
Below is a picture of the degree Harvard presented Kennedy with. I've put an arrow on the picture pointing to the seal that looked a little suspect:
Something about it looked strange to me and slightly altered from the Harvard seal I've seen in the past, so I enlarged that portion of the picture.
I hate to tell Ted, but somebody played a mean joke on him:
Not funny, Harvard.

Microsoft is targeting system management as a way to differentiate itself from competitors in the virtualization market, the company said Tuesday.
Anticipating that the market for virtualization software, such as Microsoft's Hyper-V, eventually will be commoditized, the company sees management as the key revenue opportunity for competitors offering server virtualization, said Windows Enterprise and Management Division General Manager Larry Orecklin, speaking to reporters on Microsoft's campus Tuesday.
"Management becomes really the thing we believe is critical to ensuring customers can get full value from the virtualization opportunity," he said.

At the moment I am still using the (rather deaf) FT817 on RX. I think another 4dB at least is to be had on RX.

Second half goals to Caitlin Foord and Jessica Fishlock ensured the points were shared in a tight and tense match of few chances.
George Yeoman-Dale hit the post early for the Sky Blues in a first half of few chances, with both sides battling in the heat in midfield.
Nicola Bolger thought she'd opened the scoring for Sydney FC after she backheeled in a Teresa Polias cross however the offside flag was up to deny the midfielder and ensure the two sides went into the break level.
The second half opened in much the same fashion, with both sides throwing in heavy challenges as the search for the opening goal ramped up.
The opening goal came just after the hour mark as Foord showed off her athleticism to jink into the Melbourne City area before sweeping home past Lydia Williams.
The goal sparked City to life and 10 minutes later the scores were level as Fishlock headed in a deep cross from Stephanie Catley on the left flank to claw one back for the away side.
Minutes later Remy Siemsen thought she'd found a winner as she prodded home off a Kyah Simon ball on the turn, however the offside flag again denied the home side.
With time ticking down both sides threatened on the break, however with no further chances the scores remained level at one all as the full time whistle sounded.
Sydney FC have the BYE next round while Melbourne City contest the Melbourne derby on Sunday 15 January (kick off 4pm) at Epping Stadium.

Supercars aren't expected to get excellent fuel economy--and most of them live down to that promise, with single-digit city ratings.
The 2012 Nissan GT-R's at least made an effort to improve its numbers. This year, its EPA numbers are up to 16/23 mpg, from 15/21 mpg. It's still not great, when you consider the GT-R is nominally a four-passenger car, and when today's Corvettes and Porsche 911s manage highway numbers in the high 20s
It's not the biggest gas guzzler among supercars, but still, the 2012 Nissan GT-R won't win you any friends in the Sierra Club.
However, for a supercar, those gas mileage figures are fairly solid. Mostly, it's due to the GT-R's big twin-turbo V-6, which turns out huge horsepower while using less fuel than a comparable V-8 or V-12.

We Mean Business is a coalition of organizations working with thousands of the world's most influential businesses. These businesses recognize that the transition to a low carbon economy is the only way to secure sustainable economic growth and prosperity for all. To accelerate this transition, we have formed a common platform to amplify the business voice, catalyze bold climate action by all, and promote smart policy frameworks.
Leading businesses recognize…
While climate change is one of the greatest risks we face, tackling it is also one of our biggest economic opportunities.
The impact of climate change on business and society is already being felt. Left unchecked, climate change will cause damage to facilities; disrupt supply and distribution chains; threaten power supplies; jeopardize the global food and water resources; and add overall uncertainty to the marketplace thus increasing the cost of doing business. It is clear that fair, equitable, high-quality growth can no longer be sustained unless climate risk is addressed.
To reduce this risk, companies need to find new ways of doing business. The sooner this is accomplished, the less disruptive and more cost-effective the transition will be.
The low carbon revolution is already offering huge opportunities for business, the economy and society as a whole. Companies have the potential to unleash a wave of innovation in low carbon technologies, creating new products and services, generating employment, reducing energy consumption and increasing savings if the right policies are in place.
The resulting new clean energy economy will improve public health, provide greater energy security and contribute to poverty alleviation for billions of people around the world.
Many businesses have helped kick-start this movement by setting ambitious targets, reporting emissions and scaling up low carbon investment. The necessary change needed to address climate change, however, is not happening fast enough. Further action from government will help more and more companies take this to scale.
Businesses need policies that help them scale up clean energy and energy efficiency, conserve natural resources, send the right price signals to drive investment in low carbon technologies and build resilience into workforce and communities most affected by climate impacts.
By working together, business and government can meet the climate change challenge and help create a better, safer and healthier world for all.

People who will not even cross your mind on your deathbed and genuinely have no major significance to anything in your life besides your ego. This is why it doesn't make very much sense for someone to place excessive emphasis on how many downvotes or upvotes they receive. The most important defining factor is that some grateful person somewhere who was struggling walked away with a solution or a remedy to their troubles or is now more aware because of what you shared in your answer. That's what makes GAG answers valuable not so much the number of people who liked or dislike what you had to say. Yet I'm noticing quite a few GAG users who seem unnerved and flustered if they receive downvotes. So it makes me wonder, do you use the GAG upvoting/downvoting system to validate your pride, worth, and/or the general value of your answers? Be honest.
- Yes, I do.Vote A
- No, I do not.Vote B

Well, yeah. For me, it's about improvement.
I do not know what parts of me are valuable and what are not. For that, I need someone else's perspective, and the voting system gives me that perspective.
I am constantly seeking improvement, and I won't know what to improve without opinions.
Life is a competition, and I want to win. The goals might be different for different people, but the race is still the same. I want to be smart. I want to be considerate. I want to be witty. And this is all considered in comparison to other people.
And yeah, I want more up votes/opinions than other people. It tells me that whatever I'm doing is worthwhile. If I don't have them, then it means I'm not good enough and need to change.11|00|0

Gujarat, the birthplace of the apostle of non-violence, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, has become Indias most violence-prone state. The attack on the Swaminarayan temple in Gandhinagar and the counter-attack to flush out the terrorists is the most recent incident in a long series which began early this year. Behind it stands an even longer history of violence based on caste and religion. Violence in Gujarat is a sociological phenomenon waiting to be researched and analysed. In the absence of such an in-depth study, the larger picture remains obscure. But a few preliminary observations may be hazarded. There may not be a direct causal link between the pogrom that followed Godhra and the shoot-out in the temple on Tuesday night. But it is not unreasonable to suggest that Tuesdays incident belongs to the cycle of violence that began in Godhra. Gujarat, or more precisely the two major religious communities there, has descended into the world of Hammurabi where an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth were considered accepted social practice. The apparent indifference of the government of Gujarat under Mr Narendra Modi during the anti-Muslim violence may have provoked militant Muslim organizations to take the law into their own hands and seek vengeance for the destruction wreaked on Muslim life and property in Gujarat. Violence has an endemic tendency to breed more violence, terror invariably breeds counter-terror.
The indifference of Mr Modis government in March-April this year is in stark contrast to the alacrity with which the army has been called out immediately after the attack on the temple. There is obviously a greater alertness to prevent an escalation of violence and the beginning of a fresh cycle of revenge and vendetta. A terrorist attack is not a new thing in India. Such attacks have practically become a part of daily life in Kashmir. In recent memory, there are the attacks on Parliament in New Delhi and on the American Center in Calcutta. This attack on the Swaminarayan temple has occurred at almost a stones throw away from the chief ministers residence. The recursivity of the terrorist attacks in high security zones is an indicator of a dangerous trend. It seems to suggest a systemic failure in intelligence gathering. The deputy prime minister, Mr L.K. Advani, who is also the home minister, has done well to rush to Gandhinagar, his parliamentary constituency. But he should also look carefully at the home ministry and at the growing evidence suggesting that all is not well with intelligence gathering.

Hershey Felder has carved out an unusual corner of the theatrical firmament for himself: playing famous composers on stage. This week he brings his newest creation, "Beethoven As I Knew Him," to the Laguna Playhouse for a brief run.
The Montreal-born pianist, playwright, actor and singer has been a longtime crowd-pleaser with his one-man, music-infused biographical play, "George Gershwin Alone," which he has performed thousands of times around the world. His "Monsieur Chopin" uses the same techniques, portraying the artist and playing the piano to spin a tale of his life and career. Both were popular favorites at the playhouse earlier this year.
For "Beethoven As I Knew Him," Felder takes a different approach. Instead of bringing us the composer himself, Felder tells the story of Beethoven's life through the eyes of an admirer, Gerhard von Breuning, who as a teen knew the great man during the last two years of his life. Von Breuning recounted that relationship decades later in a book called "Aus dem Schwarzspanierhaus."
I talked to Felder on Monday on stage at the Laguna Playhouse, where he made frequent use of his Steinway concert grand piano to illustrate his musical points.
The Orange County Register: You've been doing this play for almost three years now. Has it changed much since the beginning?
Hershey Felder: My pieces don't settle until year three. We just filmed it for TV. I did it in Cleveland and Chicago and at the Old Globe and the Geffen Playhouse, and at the Ravinia Festival. It's complicated in that it requires such a different set of muscles. I literally never know what's going to happen, although I have everything planned.
Register: Why did you choose not to portray the composer this time around?
Felder: Well, (von Breuning) becomes Beethoven onstage. With Beethoven you're faced with a lot of problems. How do you do him? He's such a complex and difficult subject. I finally went to see "33 Variations" (playwright Moisés Kaufman's play about a Beethoven scholar). The look of it was very, very beautiful. But it didn't quite deal with what I thought it would. Also, I don't quite buy into the stance that Beethoven really struggled over (the Diabelli Variations) in the last four years of his life and that it was his primary focus. During the (composing of) the Missa Solemnis and the Ninth Symphony? Really? It's an argument you can't maintain. It was an exercise that tickled him but I'm sure it didn't monopolize his time, because he was involved in so many other things.
Register: How did you begin the writing process?
Felder: There had to be a story, but more than a story. I wanted to give the audience something that actually did happen. So rather than trying to be cleverer than history, I tell a tale that's simple and straightforward: Gerhard's. It is what it is. What was fascinating to me was whether or not Gerhard's story revealed a whole lot about Beethoven, he was there. This is the way he told it; this is what he remembers. I find it touching.
Register: What do we know about Gerhard?
Felder: Bruening wrote "Aus dem Schwarzspanierhaus," which translates as "Out of the House of Black-Robed Spaniards," which is the basis for my piece. (The title refers to a former monastery where Beethoven lived in the last years of his life.) He wrote it many years later, in the 1870s, and he was compelled to write it for a specific reason. Many stories circling around the life of Beethoven were false, and grew more so as the years progressed. Gerhard's father Stephan was Beethoven's best friend until they had this very big fight. Then suddenly on the street they bumped into Beethoven after many years and he decided to move across the street from them. The question is, was he trying to re-connect with old friends or was it just a coincidence?
Register: How trustworthy is Gerhard's story?
Felder: It's hagiography and it (says a lot about) the nature of hero worship. And it's about love. This little boy was in awe and in love with this master, in the right kind of way. I think people talk a lot about celebrity these days, but there's celebrity because of spin and celebrity because of accomplishment.
Register: There is some skullduggery about Beethoven's body that we won't reveal because it plays an important part of your story. But like a lot of famous people, his body was not left undisturbed, was it?
Felder: There was great concern that somebody wanted to steal his skull for a ransom. They dug him up twice, once in 1863 and once in 1888. That part plays an important and surprising part in the story, so I don't want to reveal too much.
Register: How did you decide what Beethoven music to include?
Felder: The first thing is to understand as an artist who I am playing for. It's not the kind of approach I would take in the concert hall. It's important to not talk down to the audience yet at the same time clue them in on something. So the music has to be accessible and popular. Although as time progresses, I'm much more free to do things that Bernstein would have done, which is educate with pieces that aren't part of the norm for audiences. But for the most part (the musical choices) have to be popular. The music has to accompany the story; it can't get in the way or slow things down. And my audience is somewhat broader than a concert audience. But the nice thing I've discovered is that pianists and conductors who see the show, they tell me they learn things about Beethoven that they don't know, even though the works I'm playing are very well known. So I feel I'm connecting with more than one kind of audience.

Fruit Lover's Paradise at Frutilandia
Meluna de Miel is one twist on the fruit cocktail.
Natalie Miranda
We spin the globe and search for otherworldly spots to expand our eating horizons around the Valley.
The Place: Frutilandia
See also: 5 Things to Order at Tortas Paquime That Aren't Tortas
The Setting: Fruit is supposed to make you feel bright and cheery, and that's exactly what this Mesa spot does the moment you walk in. The walls are bright, the music is fun and there's a mural of dancing fruit on the wall. Frutilandia's menu is displayed on TV screens at back of the restaurant where all orders are placed. Just underneath that is a case of ice cream, paletas, fruit mixes and a whole display of Takis chips.
The escamocha is a towering tub of sweet cream, fruit, granola, honey and coconut.
Natalie Miranda
The Food: Frutilandia is there to feed you when you're really craving a meal, like a shrimp cocktail or sandwich, or when that sweet craving kicks in. We recommend coming in for the off-the-beaten-path fruit bowls and raspados and exotic drinks we've all come to love. The Meluna de Miel is one fruit creation to not pass up. Half a cantaloupe is filled with fruit, a scoop of ice cream of your choice and topped with whipped cream, chocolate drizzle and a cherry. It's every bit sugary and sweet, but carries only half the guilt thanks to the fruit. The exotic fruit drinks are similar to raspados, but come with a scoop of ice cream on top and chunks of fruit mixed into the shaved ice. It's every bit refreshing. The escamochas are the ultimate fruit cocktail. It comes with fruit, sweet cream, granola, shaved coconut and honey. The portion is hefty, but so smooth with the added crunch from the granola to mix up the texture a bit.
For a new spin on the all-time favorite raspado, order one of the exotic drinks, like the Macedonia above.
Natalie Miranda
The Reason We Love It: Essentially dubbing itself the land of fruit, Frutilandia lives up to its name. There is an endless way to get your favorite fruits served up, with the added sweetness of ice cream to top it off. And in case the sweetness becomes too much, the menu is balanced with snacks like nachos, Tostilocos or duro con cueritos.

Some of us are cringing at that statement. No, I am not affirming Sabellianism or Oneness doctrine. I am simply emphasizing a Truth about Our Lord that cannot be emphasized enough. Jesus is Our Father.
Is. 9:6 –
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government will be upon his shoulder,
and his name will be called
"Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." (RSV-CE)
Isaiah 9:6 is understood by Christians to be fulfilled by Christ himself. Jesus is called "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace". These are titles that Jesus bears. Jesus is the Everlasting Father. Some try and distort this text to mean that this is just simply describing Jesus's eternal characteristic as a Father or possessor of eternity and some distort this to mean that Jesus is the person of the Father.
The text means that Jesus is the Everlasting Father. A Father to all of us, his children, who will be our Father forever. We shall not be fatherless if we lean on Jesus because he is Our Father. But nevertheless, Jesus has a Father himself who he relates to.
This is also an important aspect of the Trinity. The Trinity is stumbled upon based on revelation and cannot be made known without the aid of divine reason. No human can understand the exact nature of the Trinity but the Trinity is a lived experience of relation. The Son can only be Son in relation to a Father and the Spirit is the Spirit only in relation to both. These are not mere titles or characteristic attributes of the Trinity but rather these are describing a relational God.
Hence why I have no problem declaring Jesus to be my Father at all because he is my Father. In relation to Jesus, he is my Father and a Father to me and to all his creations because Jesus is our creator. In relation to His Father who is also my Father because Jesus is also my brother (Rom. 8:29) we see the Triune God. And this is the mystery. For we experience God only at a relational level and God experiences God only at a relational level. The Trinity is not the Trinity unless it is relational and the Son relates to His Father in the Trinity. But this in no way denies the fatherhood of Jesus or asserts that Jesus is not our Father as well for to think otherwise would be to misunderstand the ways in which Christ relates to us.
My godmother was orphaned very young. Her mother died when she was an infant and her father died years later when she was 12. But through this tragedy, God led her to a very mysterious grace. Though her earthly parents were both gone, she was not truly an orphan. For Mary, the Mother of God, became a mother to her but Mary was always her Mother being the Mother of God and God became a Father to her via his Son. Of course, Jesus is also a Father to both my godmother and I but we also know that he is our brother.
Another profound mystery my godmother and I have been experiencing is the husbandship of Christ to us (2 Cor. 11:2). My godmother is a divorcee whose earthly husband left her but the reality is that her husband did not leave her at all. It was in the will of God that her earthly husband do this to her but this was to help her to further realize (along with me) that we are the bride of Christ and that the only husband we truly need is Jesus.
This lady's earthly husband was called to be with Jesus. Her two sweet daughters have a daddy in heaven now. But her daughters are not without a father for Jesus is always a father to his creatures. He says especially of children, "let the children come! such belongs the kingdom of Heaven!" (Matt. 19:14). It is very important to understand that Jesus does not allow any one to be fatherless. Farthest from it! He has appointed their departed father I am certain as a guardian angel for both of them. Further, it is even more important to understand that widowhood is not something that those who lean on Christ will face either.
Rev. 18:7-8 –
As she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
so give her a like measure of torment and grief.
Since in her heart she says,
"I rule as a queen;
I am no widow,
and I will never see grief",
therefore her plagues will come in a single day—
pestilence and mourning and famine—
and she will be burned with fire;
for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.'
The widowhood of this character in the book of Revelation is a punishment for her ascending above the will of God and for her wickedness. Widowhood is something that is a punishment for wickedness. But those who lean on Christ who lose their earthly husbands to death are not wicked. Which means they do not experience widowhood though sometimes the pain of their grief makes them conclude this. It is important to understand that Jesus is ultimately the one who we are wed to and will be wed to. He does not leave us widowed and as long as we cling to him, even if our entire family is taken from us by plagues and death (God forbid!) we will not experience widowhood of any sort for Jesus is our husband, our bridegroom.

Here's the thing... guys don't have a single preference in women's body types... Most guys will like shapely women with toned thighs and bellies. Some guys have fetishes for lush bosoms or big wide bottoms. Some guys are into slender petite women. Very few guys like big chubby girls. And a microscopic minority of guys like anorexic zombies. Sure, all guys will publicly rave about Megan fox but if you check out their internet histories, their tastes in P*rnography will indicate their real preferences.11|00|0

They hissed like serpents, they roared like lions,
They soared like eagles, and the two clashed.
And then you could see a fight between fine brave youths.
In the heat of the battle they struck continuously,
and from the great clashing and the cut and thrust
trees were uprooted and the sun was darkened,
Blood flowed down over their horse-trappings
and their sweat ran out over their breastplates.
Constantine's black horse was speedier,
and its rider was a marvellous young man.
He charged at the emir and struck him a blow with his stick,
and then the emir began to tremble and flee.
A Saracen addressed the emir in his own tongue:
"Seize the youngster, my lord, and grab a quick victory,
so that he doesn't take your head off with his sudden turn.
He has made a fine attack on you and now he might finish you off.
I don't think, my lord, you are going to do him much harm,
" but don't let him boast that he routed an army.
"When the emir heard this, he withdrew some way from the youth,
he threw away his spear and showed him his finger,
and with this gesture said these words:
May you live and rejoice, young man, for victory is yours."

Why Did My Cake Get Wet And Looked Like It Started To Welt?
Decorating By vero23 Updated 15 Jun 2011 , 2:01am by yummy_in_my_tummy
I made this cake a night before...covered both tiers with mmf and started to decorate ..and started seeing that the bottom of each tier started to look wet and it was sticky...so i put them in the fridge and only had out the tier i was working on and took turns putting in and out of the fridge cuz it helped make each tier dry and hard..i finished decorating and didnt pull the cake out till 1/2 hr before the cake was cut because i was afraid of it getting wet again and welt..u can see the dents a little on the tiers and how wet shiny it got...why did this happen?was it becasue the cakes were covered in sweet icing? or the filling was chocolate mousse?help this was my first cake and i was asked to do a baby shower one but im afraid of this happening again..pls look @ my pics and see its the 2nd photo,,its a closer look of my cake..
In my experience icing (All kinds) are more likely to get moist/wet/runny/sweat at night and if it's a rainy night its even worst. The weather has alot to do with how your icing behaves. On cold wet nights you need stiffer icing or just don't bother.
By putting the cake in and out of the fridge, you may have added to the problem. Yes the cake would be perfect in the fridge but if you cant keep the humidity away from the cake until it goes back up to room temp. you would be doing more harm than good.
I'm assuming the atmostphere was responsible for your problem but it could be something else as well. Could be that your fondant just wasn't firm enough to begin with.
It could've been that your fondant started to "sweat", normally u don't put a fondant covered cake in the fridge (or at least I don't) because once u take it out and it comes to room temperature condensation starts to happen and thats what cause the fondant to glisten and get wet....I put my cakes in the freezer before I apply the fondant but only for about 10 minutes, or while u roll out the fondant you're going to cover it with, and don't put it back in. HTH!
Hmm...hard to say. General condensation? When it happens to me, I just run a paper towel over it. I can't tell what you mean by welts by the picture - but is it like a swelling? I call them tumors, or cake zits - but usually you can slide a toothpick thru it, and slowly push it down. I'm in Texas, where cream cheese icing frequently gets tumors.
So if i were to leave the cake out all through the whole process it will be ok? i live in california..pretty fair weather right now..the iced caked were nive hard and firm at first but by the time I added the mmf i noticed the icing was a bit softer...so when i was smoothing the fondant over each tier i felt the fondant started getting wet sticky towrds the bottom only so thats why i decided to stick them in the fridge..thanks for the help..what should i do for my next cake so this wont happen...i know my friend also wants to have her cake out for show ,therefore i am really nervous the cake falling apart..oh yeah..before i stacked the 2nd tier i put 3 plastic dowel rods then covered it with frosting ..then smooth it out..covered that tier with the fondant...then i stacked the 2nd tier..should i use a crdboard in between?
Cardboard, yes.
also, the supports go in AFTER the fondant goes on.
I would have to say it was condensation. I dont ever put my cakes in the fridge and I make sure they're at room temp before I crumb coat and cover in fondant. And as Leah_S said, you want to dowel after you put the fondant on, because your dowels should all be the same height, even with the fondant so the top tier sits on top of the dowels and doesn't put any weight on the bottom tier Very cute cake!
