When castles come up for sale these days, the vendors aren't often kings. But Hay-on-Wye is an exception.
The charitable trust which has just bought the town's most visible landmark has paid £2 million to its owner, Richard Booth, the self-proclaimed "King of Hay".
It was 50 years ago that the flamboyant bibliophile opened his first bookshop in Hay, thereby writing the first chapter in a saga which has seen this Welsh town achieve global celebrity. Not just because of the number of bookshops (40 at the last count), but because of its internationally renowned Hay Literary Festival.
Yet while Hay has acquired a glittering reputation, its castle has lost its lustre. Eight hundred years of history, along with numerous sieges, stormings and conflagrations, mean that some parts are not just unlovely to look at but unsafe to visit.
"The falling-down bits are really pretty precarious," says Nancy Lavin Albert, one of five trustees who have bought the castle. "In fact, most of the grounds have been closed to the public for some time, which is a shame."
At the heart of the trustees' plans is a desire to open up the castle. "There's a real need for a gallery in mid-Wales, and the castle is perfect," says Nancy's husband, Justin, another trustee and son of the Hay Festival's chairwoman, Revel Guest. "It would be wonderful to have a venue which could stage touring exhibitions from London and Cardiff.
"We are also hoping to restore the castle's Jacobean section. When finished, we'd like people to be able to wander around like a mini-Tintern Abbey."
None of which is going to be cheap. On top of the £2 million to buy the castle, the trustees reckon it will cost another £5 million to repair and resurrect it. They plan to raise this through grants, sponsorship and donations, plus income from shops and holiday apartments inside the walls. At the same time, though, they are determined not to turn the town into a tourist trap in which bookshops will be priced out and knick-knack stores take over.
There will be a powerful and articulate lobby behind the project. The trustees include Elizabeth Haycox, owner of the town's literary epicentre, Booth's Bookshop, along with her husband, Paul Greatbatch. And if you cast a clod of Marches mud anywhere within a 10-mile radius of Hay, you're almost bound to splatter an active friend of the arts.
"That's the great thing about this area," says music-lover Patricia Park who, with her architect husband, Miles, lives in characterful, 10-bedroom Chapel House, overlooking the River Wye, and currently on the market for £895,000 (029 2036 8930; www.savills.com). "You have all the wonderful life of rural Wales, along with a highly intelligent and very focused community of people who are all mad about the written word."
Each year, when the world's culture vultures descend on Hay for the literary festival, quite a few choose to stay on. "It's marvellous, really," says Justin who, like his wife, is a film-maker. "Each summer, the tide comes in, and, when it goes out again, it leaves behind a number of people who decide to stay and buy a house.
"There's no doubt that this castle project is a big undertaking, but if there's one place in Britain that can make it work, it's got to be Hay."

We're delighted to have Pat Gallagher and Goats Don't Shave here at An Grianan Theatre for the very first time!
There's only a handful of bands that can use the term 'legendary' without being accused of hyperbole but Donegal's own Goats Don't Shave are undoubtedly one of them. Their iconic hit Las Vegas (in the hills of Donegal) is still one of Irish folk rocks most instantly recognisable songs. Frontman and songwriter Pat Gallagher's songs have been recorded by many artists all over the world.
The great news is that Pat and the lads are back. Bringing the same intensity, skill and entertainment for which they're famous.
Pat's music maps the human heart with surgical skill and great compassion. He offers us hard-earned pieces of wisdom set to strong yet gentle melodies. These are his creative signatures and they have earned the Dungloe singer/songwriter immense respect from peers, critics and a devoted audience.
Expect an absolute stormer of a show!

Deep Fried Jell-O is actually good
Posted October 14, 2016
Raleigh, N.C. — I tried the deep fried Jell-O today at the N.C. State Fair. While I was very skeptical about whether this new fair food was going to taste good, I was pleasantly surprised.
The crust is actually a funnel cake batter that has been made into more of a biscuit. The powdered sugar on the outside melts nicely on top, turning it into a doughnut-biscuit hybrid. The cherry Jell-O on the inside becomes more of a jelly when deep fried. It's not overly sweet and actually tasty.
S2 Concessions (a giant pink stand in Kiddieland next to the Bacon on a Stick vendor) spent some time getting this dessert perfected. On Thursday, their freezers weren't working properly so the Jell-O didn't set. The first dishes of this new fair food didn't go out until after 7 p.m. on opening night.

"Tu es plus facile à faire qu'à comprendre
Et tomber je n'ai pas pu te prendre

I currently make about 4 wedding cakes per year from my home. I put a lot of work into my tastings and was wondering how others do their tastings.
How many cake/frosting varieties do you offer?
Do you bake fresh or freeze samples? If freezing, only the cake or filled and frosted? (I use a lot of whipped cream filling with fresh fruit.)
Do you charge for the tasting?
Do you have any other advice for me?
I am a license home baker and am just finishing up my third season...I did over 100 wedding cakes and about 200 celebration cakes this year.
For tastings, I used to give out all the flavors but people told me they wereover whelmed, so I now I just put out little squares of white, yellow, chocolate, french vanilla and red velvet, my most poplar cakes. I also put out a scoop of bc, some mousses and a lemon curd
I freeze just my cakes in 8 inch squares and cut them up for tastings. I have a low humidity commerical freezer and they stay good for about a month. Double wrapped and put in a zip lock bag.
I dont charge for tastings...its part of the business I think. Do you have to pay to test drive a car or for samples at BJs?

If Benji Marshall says goodbye on Sunday, it's not because his body has forced him to.
The off-contract St George Illawarra star has hit back at claims his time in the NRL is up, saying he's come back from worse things than a chronic hamstring injury.
Controversially dropped for the first time in his career last week, Marshall has been handed a farewell for the Dragons in Sunday's final round game against Newcastle.
And while he has previously hinted at calling stumps on his decorated career, he still won't be treating the Knights game as his rugby league swansong.
"I still have a burning desire within to play. I'd love to play on and I'm still working on that," Marshall said on Wednesday.
"If that doesn't happen, I've been fortunate enough to do a few jobs along the way that will put me in good stead in life after football where other blokes don't have the same opportunities.
"I'm blessed in that sense."
A runner-up to Johnathan Thurston in the Dally M last year, Marshall's 2016 campaign has been plagued by a chronic hamstring injury that stopped him playing more than four games in a row before July.
But he is angered by the idea his body is breaking down.
"I'm 31, I'm not 35," he said.
"There is still blokes running around at 35 so all this talk about me being too old is bullshit to me. Anyone who knows me, knows what's affected me this year has been the hamstring.
"But I know I can come back from it, I've come back from way worse."
Marshall will depart Wollongong with 53 games in the Red V, who threw the Wests Tigers 2005 premiership-winner a lifeline following his failed stint in rugby union in 2014.
He said Sunday's game would be emotionally tough.
"I spent two-and-a-half years here it's been some of the best fun I've had. Coming back to rugby league, I couldn't have picked a better bunch of dudes," he said.

Potato Soup
Recipe by mosma
This simple and delicious potato soup comes from my mother. It's the perfect soup to make at the end of a [religious] fast day.
Top Review by foodtvfan
Delicious and so easy to make soup. Loved it. I've made it twice in the last few days. The second time I added one medium chopped green pepper from our garden for a 'pepper pot' soup. I added a little less parsley, personal preference only, and garnished the finished soup with grated cheddar cheese and crispy bacon bits. Served it with toasted garlic bread made from thick slices of French bread.Yum. Another favorite. Update October 14, 2007 Forgot to say that I used potato water left from making mashed potatoes the day before, and recipe #235039 instead of the water.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – Here's the reality for Antonio McDyess: He'll never be the same player after undergoing three knee surgeries in a 19-month span – certainly not the one with Amare-like hops who helped the United States win Olympic gold in 2000 and rose to All-Star status with the Denver Nuggets in 2001.
Here's the consolation for McDyess: He wouldn't be playing in these NBA Finals with the Detroit Pistons if his career hadn't taken such a drastic turn.
It's ironic, but McDyess' preseason injuries – a torn patella tendon in his left knee in October of 2001 with the Nuggets, and a fractured left knee cap in October of 2002 with the New York Knicks – ended his reign with the Garnetts, Duncans and Malones as one of the NBA's elite power forwards. But that misfortune sent him on a comeback trail that now has him playing on basketball's biggest stage, albeit in a reserve role.
"I always kind of look back and say, 'What if I hadn't got hurt?' " McDyess said. "But also, if I hadn't gotten hurt, I wouldn't be in this position. Because I don't think I'd be playing behind Ben [Wallace] and Rasheed [Wallace]. I'd be on another team."
The fear of McDyess being damaged goods kept most teams away from the former No. 2 overall pick during free agency last summer. Pistons general manager Joe Dumars had his doubts like everyone else, but he saw everything he needed to see from the 6-foot-9, 245-pound McDyess during a late-season run in which McDyess averaged 8.7 points and 8.3 rebounds a game.
When Mehmet Okur signed with Utah, Dumars offered McDyess a four-year, $24 million contract to be his new backup big man. Being reunited with Chauncey Billups, a former teammate in Denver, and Larry Brown, an assistant for Team USA in 2000, made it a no-brainer for McDyess.
"A lot of people gave up on me," McDyess said. "And he [Dumars] wasn't one of them. He told me when I first came [to Detroit] that I still had it. He believed in me."
"Phoenix wanted me back," he added. "But with what they were offering, it was kind of a slap in the face."
McDyess didn't have much of an appetite for basketball after being shipped to the Suns in January of 2004 as part of Isiah Thomas' shakeup of the Knicks. Told he would be one of the building blocks in New York, McDyess suddenly found himself on the bench in Phoenix. It was one more blow to the ego and another step down in his pursuit of becoming a franchise player again.
A frustrated McDyess told his agent to request his release from the Suns. He even contemplated retirement. "I was at the lowest point of my career," McDyess said.
"It's disappointing when you see a guy like that get injured, especially when the person is a good person," said Robert Horry, who, like McDyess, played his college ball at Alabama. "He's a great guy who's soft spoken and plays hard. I just wanted to see him get better and get healthy."
Unfortunately for Horry and his San Antonio Spurs, they have seen flashes of the old McDyess the last two games. He contributed 15 points and seven rebounds in 24 minutes in the Pistons' 97-76 loss in Game 2, then followed up that effort with a starring role in Detroit's 96-79 rout in Game 3 on Tuesday.
McDyess totaled 12 points, nine rebounds and two blocks in just 19 minutes, shooting a perfect 3-for-3 from the field and pulling down five boards in the fourth quarter. He sank a 20-foot jumper and banked in a 15-footer (after putting an up-and-under move on Nazr Mohammed) to close out an 11-0 run that gave Detroit an 82-69 lead.
"I'm just happy he gave it a second chance," Billups said of McDyess. "I'm even more happy that he gave it a second chance with us because he could have been somewhere else and starting and had a great season. But I think he knew where his career was at. He knows what's most important and that's winning and being part of something special."
"I look at him like another star," Brown said. "With Rasheed and Ben and McDyess, I think we're as deep as any team in the league at the four and five position. Game 2, even though we got beat, gave McDyess got a lot of confidence. I think it carried over [to Game 3]."
McDyess still thinks of himself as a "go-to guy" when he steps on the floor, but he realizes his days of averaging 21 and 12 – as he did with the Nuggets in 2001 – are long gone. The outside jumper is still there, but he admits that he can't run as fast or leap as quickly as he once did.
"Now I just pick and choose my places to shoot – and jump. I know when not to jump," he said. "Maybe I wouldn't have gotten hurt if I was this Antonio."
Through all of the pain, though, this Antonio McDyess finally has something to gain: a ring.

Cockfosters is a suburb of north London, lying partly in the London Borough of Enfield and partly in the London Borough of Barnet. Cockfosters was located pre-1965 in East Barnet in the counties of Hertfordshire and Middlesex.
Notes from Wikipedia
The name has been recorded as far back as 1524, and is thought to be either the name of a family, or that of a house which stood on Enfield Chase. One suggestion is that it was "the residence of the cock forester (or chief forester)".
Christ Church, Cockfosters was founded in 1839. Cockfosters is the terminal station of the Piccadilly line of the London Underground. The station was opened in 1933.

What Kind Of Cancer Can It Be If You Have Blood In The Urine
What kind of cancer can it be if you have blood in the urine?

Sources of blood in the urine may be either benign (e.g., infection, stones) or malignant. A malignancy anywhere in the urinary tract may cause hematuria - from the kidenys all the way dwn to the urethra. This is why patients need imaging and cystoscopy to evaluate hematuria. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer

Q: What weighs 200,000 pounds?
A: Our annual painkiller consumption.
Painkiller use has boomed by 88% in less than a decade. There are a few reasonable explanations: Gulf War and Iraq War veterans, aging Baby Boomers. But even accounting for these numbers, painkiller use – I say abuse – is an obvious problem. Of course, some "mainstream" docs will talk about improved diagnosis and treatment rates, but I believe the real issue here is that we're failing to see the value in pain. No, no, I'm not talking about masochism. I'm talking about the vital role pain plays in healing and health. Just as the body evolved the fear response to survive, so too for pain.
Pain used to be considered part of the healing process. Sure, pain hurts, but it's not bad. You can thank the pharmaceutical industry's aggressive and relentless marketing for shifting our perspective of pain as tool to pain as illness. A headache is an indicator of stress, or heck, too many martinis. A backache is a sign that you need to get up from that chair and exercise. Beyond that, pain is a sign that your body is doing what it's supposed to do: heal what's broken. No pain, no gain. Pain in and of itself is not a health problem – it's a symptom. Treating pain after a surgery or injury is one thing. But treating chronic pain that's a result of a poor lifestyle choice is ridiculous. When a child burns his finger on a hot stove, he knows not to touch the stove again. We don't give the tot an ice cube and tell him to touch the stove again tomorrow.
But that's exactly what we're doing. If you don't believe it, be aware that spending on marketing and advertising of painkillers (from hydrocodone – Vicodin – to oxycodone) has tripled since 1997. (Must be good to be Pharma: their profit margins are quadruple that of other Fortune 500's.) Though I'm obviously not in favor of reliance on prescription drugs when lifestyle changes could be made instead, there's a consequence of all this painkiller addiction that's unfortunate: those who truly need help are facing even more of a health care nightmare than the average person (as if that were possible…).

9 Comments on "Americans Popping Pain Pills in Record Numbers"
It's so true. Our healthcare system has bought into the mantra that we deserve a life free from pain. Unfortunately, that comes at the expense of our health when we treat the pain, not the cause. It's a funny thing … but when you treat / cure the cause, the pain goes away!
Our health care system as a whole is a problem. We are supposedly the most advanced country in the world and the richest. Yet our elected officials do not see it fit to enact universal health care. I say that as taxpaying citizens of this country, we and our elected officials are pathetic. Universal health care is a right and responsibility, not a privilege.
But they are all so colorful. Maybe it will become like the M&M Store and you will e able to personalize your Pain Killer.
Seriously, I'm not sure how much Big Pharma makes when most of the Pain Killers prescribed are generics.
On another note, Soma I do and Soma I don't.
In the last 18 months I have had 2 outpatient surgeries, and both times I was prescribed 30 oxycodone for post surgery, and both times when I went back for my follow-up a week later, I was asked if I needed a refill. I just threw away the 56 oxycodone I had left.
I do believe that there is a place for pain pills, but I also believe they are way over prescribed on the whole. Doctors are not doing us any favors as a society, maybe a little more tough love and suck it up is in order.
Joe, fascinating – thanks for sharing your insider perspective.
Wow, I only got 12 darvocets for my wisdom teeth surgery. I feel cheated. 😉
(only took 2 anyway)
I am taking soma medication since last few months and Soma reduces my muscle pain gradually. Soma really helps me a lot. I usually buy Soma online from buysoma-online.info
Pain can also be caused by having too little cranial bones that literally squish the soft tissue together causing astigmatism, 2-faced facial bones, deviated septum, cramped sinus that forms lakes of fluids that constantly start sinus infections and prevent proper drainage, and the list goes on.
Many people don't know this…and wonder why their head hurts day in day out.
When an unborn baby didnt get enough minerals and vitamins during pregnancy to lay down bone, this is what happens.
Good indicator of lack of bone and formation is crowding of teeth.

Independent D.C. mayoral candidate Carol Schwartz submitted more than 6,500 petition signatures to the Board of Elections on Wednesday, more than double the 3,000 signatures needed to get on the ballot for the November election.
"Not only was the number very strong, but notable was that Carol personally gathered over 2,000 of those signatures in all wards of the city," a statement released by the Schwartz campaign says.
"I am grateful to the more than 70 volunteers who gave so much time and energy – and received not one penny – to help me get on the ballot on Nov. 4, as well as the many more who are helping in so many other ways," Schwartz said. "With our campaign, which has always been more about people than money, I feel we have a real chance for victory for all of us."
Similar to the campaign of rival mayoral candidate David Catania, the Schwartz campaign said a majority of the signatures Schwartz submitted have been validated, decreasing the chance of someone challenging the signatures.
Democratic mayoral nominee Muriel Bowser, who won the city's Democratic primary in April, is given automatic placement on the ballot in November without the need for petition signatures.

AN EARTHQUAKE has hit off the west coast of Indonesia's Sumatra, sending terrified residents fleeing from homes and buildings.
The 6.6 magnitude quake struck at around 7:30am (1030 AEST) some 300km southwest of Medan, the capital of North Sumatra province, at a depth of 45km, the US Geological Survey said.
There were no immediate reports of damage or casualties but a resident on Simeulue, a small island about 150km off Sumatra's west coast, said the ground shook violently for about a minute.
"People rushed out of their homes in panic. We felt strong shaking for about a minute, but so far there is no apparent sign of damage," said Abdul Karim, a 44-year-old civil servant in Sinabang, the capital of Simeulue island.
Indonesia's meteorology agency did not issue a tsunami warning and confirmed there were no reports of casualties or damage so far.
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology also said the Indonesian quake posed no tsunami threat to Australia.
Indonesia sits on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" where continental plates collide, causing frequent seismic and volcanic activity.

I think the traditional way to eat is to grab a handful with your left hand, place it in to your right hand, then put into the mouth. This is the hygienic way practised in India with all finger food.
We always have Bombay mix at parties and barbecues, where it doesn't matter if you make a mess. The UK has strong links with India, so we do have a lot of Indian food readily available.

its far too much bother to make yourself, buy it ready made.
that brand is quite easy to get in the US, most bigger towns will probably have an international market that stocks it (i get mine from an international market here at $2.79 a bag)

About this book
"In the poems of Jennifer Husk the world is a membrane words bounce against and poke into, skating on the scrim then delving below in quick sharp digs of fragment, image, and gut-punch. This work is 'river dialogue' and 'glare on the surface' all at once, achieving experiment, a sustained rhetoric, intimacy and political weight in one go. If Van Gogh graffitied The Starry Night on an urban wall then broke it apart with a mallet, you might get at something resembling the rough and precious texture of a Husk poem. Her register is horizon-wide and she jumps its length in a blink: the same stanza holds 'rooms of dust' and 'harmony,' then enjoins us to 'hack the map' and 'tag it city-wide.' This is a skateboard train anyone wishing to journey the sidewalk, desert, star, and cerebellum should hop on, presto."

At Spa Francorchamps, the 2008 Belgian Grand Prix took place, and it was the best race of the season. But with three laps to go, it started to pelt it down. Suddenly, the racing got even better.
As the drivers approaching the Bus Stop chicane (so called because when the roads were still streets, the chicane was in reality a bus stop), Raikkonen and Hamilton were side by side. Raikkonen was on the inside. Hamilton turned in on the outside, but had no way to make the corner. So, he had to take the escape road, and recover to the circuit. He did so in first place, ahead of Raikkonen, but as stated in the rulebook, he gave the place back to Raikkonen. At the next corner, La Source, Hamilton repassed Raikkonen. Then the drivers went full throttle through Eau Rouge and on to Les Combes. It was still dry there! However, when they turned through the chicane, the rain was evident. Hamilton kept the lead. But a Williams infront of him on the road had spun, causing Hamilton to have to swerve away onto the grass. Raikkonen managed to go between both cars - more by luck than judgement - and ended up retaking the lead. As Hamilton recovered to the track, Raikkonen spun again at Pouhon, giving the lead back to Hamilton. On the way through Stavelot, Hamilton was still leading. At Blanchimont, a 190mph left-hand kink in the dry, Raikkonen spun and ended up in the wall. Out of the race. On the last lap, Hamilton and Massa had to coast around on dry tyres - pitting for intermediates was too big a risk. Hamilton however won the race. Or so it seemed.
After the race, the stewards settled down and thought that the chicane cutting of Hamilton warranted a 25 second penalty - the standard replacement for a drive-through penalty when the race enters the last three laps. This relegated Hamilton to third, and gave Massa the win. It also altered an 8 point lead for Hamilton in the Championship, and it became a 2 point lead. One could accuse the FIA of doing it deliberately to help Ferrari? Or even, to tighten up the Championship.
This encouraged me to cast my mind back.
2006 Italian Grand Prix. Fernando Alonso led the Championship by 12 points going into the Grand Prix. In qualifying, Alonso was judged to have "blocked" Felipe Massa on the way down to the Parabolica. Note that this is a long straight section of track. Alonso was however 100 yeards ahead of Massa! While Massa's car may have been unstable through the last corner, Massa received an almighty tow due to slipstreaming down the straight. As a result of this, Alonso was dropped five places on the grid. This gave Michael Schumacher pole, and the race win. Some said, it was very pro-Ferrari. Fortunately, Alonso went on to win the Championship.
1997 Japanese Grand Prix. Jacques Villeneuve led the Championship by 9 points going into the Grand Prix. In practice, he was judged to have ignored yellow flags, i.e. not slowing down as he passed them. He was disqualified from the race, a penalty which did not befit the crime. After a protest, Villeneuve was allowed to race. He finished in fifth place, but was later stripped of the points, and his disqualification confirmed. This allowed Michael Schumacher to win, and take a 1 point lead ahead of Villeneuve. Happily, after all that, Villeneuve won the Championship at Jerez, after Schumacher turned into him deliberately, a move which disqualified him from the Championship.
Then, I did a bit of research.
1958 Portuguese Grand Prix. Mike Hawthorn led the Championship by 5 points going into the Grand Prix. In practice, Hawthorn was judged to have reversed back onto the circuit after an excursion. At the time, that was seen as bad, for some reason. When threatened with a penalty, Hawthorn's nearest rival, Stirling Moss, defended Hawthorn, who drove for the rival Ferrari team. As a result, no penalty was given. In the race, Moss won for 8 points, but Hawthorn scored 6 for second place, plus 1 for the Fastest Lap. In the final standings, Hawthorn beat Moss by just 1 point. If Hawthorn had been disqualified from the race, he would have lost 8 points. However, in 1958, not everybody could enter all of the races, so only the top 6 scores of 11 counted. By losing this score of 7, Hawthorn would have had to include a score of 6. This would have tied him with Moss for the Championship. However, Moss had won 4 races to Hawthorn's 1. That means that if Moss had kept his mouth shut, he would have been World Champion. However, such was the sportsmanship of the man, Hawthorn became Britain's first World Champion.
All three have been penalties that have ended up tightening the Championship. This is a controversial question: Is it a deliberate ploy from the FIA, to make the Championship closer? It would certainly give fewer "dead" Grands Prix later in the season. Justice ended up being done in all of the circumstances above, so let us hope that Hamilton can make it 4/4 in terms of winning the Championship when the FIA does all it can to give it to someone else.

i'm stuck between choosing 2 girls...
one of them is my girlfriend... I've always been loyal and I really do love her... she's really great. but there's also this other girl, who's like my best "girl friend"...
before I met my girlfriend, I asked my "friend" out
she said not now, that she had a lot of stuff and really liked me as a guy... so I waited... 2 months, and nothing. so I decided to go out with my now girlfriend (who's like obsessed with me, but in a good way haha)
just now, my friend started giving me signs that she likes me again...
i don't know whether I should stick with my girl or go with the old one... I really don't want to hurt my girlfriend but I like my friend more...
Most Helpful Girl
okay honestly,.
you're friend had a chance, and she lost it.
her losss.
you may like her more but she's just jealous because you're spending time with this other girl.
girls LOVE what they can't have, and since she can't have you, she wants you.
it may change later though.
she may decide against it.
why risk it if this girl is crazy about you and vice versa!10|10|0

This one-year MA Program is unique in presenting the philosophical, sociological, political, art and social historical contexts a student must be familiar with to meaningfully pursue the questions that the contemporary situation of art poses. Society and art are studied in their actual tension, without reducing art to society, or pretending that society somehow amounts to the world of art.
- The curriculum is made up of courses in aesthetics, political theory, social history, the history of art and social theory. Classes involve open discussions concerning the most important questions we have about art, politics, society and our lives.
- Focal points of the program are the Proseminars on the "The Situation of the Arts: The Level of the Problem" and the "Serious Times Lecture Series."
- A small group of students is selected annually by the Committee on Graduate Admissions. Philosophy, social history, and political science often engage the arts, and students in the program come from many disciplines, no less than from the art studio.
"Art knows us better than we know ourselves." –T. W. Adorno
The Program in Critical Theory and the Arts
The MA in Critical Theory and the Arts is a year-long program of study in the arts that has its origins in a recognition shared by most everyone, though rarely explicitly, that art is not simply one more thing that humans happen to make, but the object that potentially and most of all reveals the antagonisms, conflicts and promises of human history and of the moment we inhabit. In this sense, art really does know "us better than we know ourselves." And once this thought is on one's mind, the impulse to understand how these considerable realities become coiled up in art, what they genuinely are, no less than wanting to know what it would mean intellectually and socially to do justice to art's more than important content, may become insistent.
The program in Critical Theory and the Arts engages these questions in a broadly conceived curriculum that focuses on the contemporary situation of the arts: on the problems of making art today, on what art has become and is becoming, and on understanding what is at stake in the relation of these developments in art to contemporary social conflict and reality. This focus is, however, by no means limited to what's happening "now," for in understanding art from the perspective of the present, the past—our past—is necessarily illuminated and may even, in a certain sense, come to our aid in what we have to consider.
Much thinking is required here, and this is widely sensed by many. Thinking about art has, in fact, with rare historical precedent, never before been so protean, so inventive and urgently central to the whole of social, philosophical and political reflection. Every major area of thought now turns considerable attention to art in expectation that it will provide the key to solving its central questions. And this intensity in thinking about art is inseparable from what is occurring within art, where it hardly matters whether one is "for" or "against" theory. For reflection on art is no longer separate from its making. On the contrary, today every aspect of art's reality presents dynamic conflicts and puzzles, and those who are directly involved in the arts can no longer imagine that it is possible to proceed naïvely, mixing passion with thin air. Where artists of earlier generations struggled to disguise the thinking labor that went into their work, today art theory has become part—often an explicit part—of all art-making. To an unprecedented degree, developments in art theory directly transform art. What the arts once were, they soon enough will no longer be; in large measure, they have already been irreversibly transformed. For artists and graduate students from several fields of inquiry, the need collaboratively to understand what has happened, what is happening and what is at stake is salient.
The Academic Year
The carefully structured curriculum is itself focally organized around two year-long seminars, "The Situation of the Arts: The Level of the Problem"—which engages students in the contemporary art world—and the "Serious Times Lecture Series." Internationally acclaimed visiting artists and distinguished intellectuals are invited to these seminars to share their work, research—and sometimes their working lives—with students and faculty.
Who are the students?
The students who join us for the year have a lot on their minds and mean to have a whole lot more on their minds. They have made it clear in their applications that they have a serious developing involvement in the arts and questions of social reality. These students bring an intensity for education to the program at a moment when it is widely recognized that society and a pragmatically narrowed education are largely in retreat from engaging some of the most tense, most difficult problems that have ever confronted humanity—problems that art, at whatever apparent distance from society, cannot help but share.
The students come from various fields of undergraduate education, including art school. A number are active in studio work. Because the curriculum is wide ranging, it necessarily turns out that each student is more prepared in one area of study than in another. Those, for instance, with a more extensive background in art history, philosophy, or sociology may have less direct experience in making art than do art school graduates, who may themselves know less about contemporary society than those who have studied sociology or whose lives have long been engaged in social activism—and so on. We expect this, and the array of strengths, familiarities and backgrounds produces a collaborative atmosphere in which students support and fill each other in. The faculty are fully aware of this situation, themselves have different areas of expertise, and make these differences a productive source of reflection in the classes.
"The measure of the program…"
Of all that we are concerned with in this program, we measure the success or failure of the curriculum—and this states an aspect of the deepest intention of the program—by whether in teaching it we are able to provide students who are seeking a genuine autonomy of mind the concepts, reasoning and intellectual experience in which they may possibly assert the sapere aude—the dare to know!—in which this autonomy is fulfilled.
Where does it lead?
The program is a year of intensive research and study, and we protect it. We do not, for instance, allow curious visitors to sit in on our classes. To deepen the lives of our students and deepen our own lives in teaching is what preoccupies us. Our greatest satisfaction in the program is exactly the same as that of our students when they tell us that they "will be thinking about this for the rest of their lives"—and they do tell us that. But, while we do not train students for any particular employment, we know—without at all underestimating the difficulties that anyone today faces who wants to make a life that is meaningful and equal to one's own talents—that we are educating students to go on to do important things. And the program leads in many such directions, especially because of the degree's flexibility. Students with an MA in Critical Theory and the Arts will, for example, find themselves well prepared and advised for seeking PhD degrees in a number of areas of study and from there go on to write and teach; others will become public intellectuals; and other students will in the course of the year discover what they never would have guessed they most wanted to do with their lives; others will return to their studio practice finding their work transformed. Each student in the program discusses with his or her advisor and with the program's chair what the student intends to do "next." These discussions are a formal part of the program.
Program Size
A small group of students is selected annually by the Committee on Graduate Admissions. Students who, for various reasons - international students, especially - may need to plan far ahead to join the program, may request deferred admission for the following year.
Financial Aid
We are able to provide some financial assistance and, on occasion, a number of teaching and research assistantships to our students. In general, however, we do what we can to make these scholarships free of departmental responsibilities so that our students have as much time as possible for their studies.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, not good with kids, and good with dogs.
Dezi is a two year old Terrier mix that weighs about 8 pounds. She is spayed, micro chipped and her shots are up to date, and she is house trained. When Dezi first came to her foster home, she was fearful of everything and everyone. We did not even realize she had a tail, because it was always hidden between her legs. Whenever someone she didn't know came into the house, she would run and hide. In working with Dezi, we now hold her when strangers arrive, so she realizes there is nothing to fear; once she relaxes, we put her down, and within an hour of patience and treats, she will approach the stranger. There will be ongoing training required by her new owner.
Although she is still fearful of strangers, Dezi discovered her inner puppy. She loves to play fetch, run in the backyard, chase the other dogs and wrestle with her humans. She is a bundle of energy but will curl up on your lap when it is time to rest. Dezi is currently crated when at home alone, as she has not yet completely learned the art of sharing with the other dogs. She is not destructive at all, and once she masters sharing, the crate would likely not be necessary. Dezi is a sweetheart that thrives on praise. Her favourite place to sleep is under the blankets with her humans, but she will also sleep in a crate. Her ideal home would be an adult only home or one with older children that would give her time, patience and be willing to continue to teach her that people aren't to be feared. If Dezi sounds like the companion that you've been looking for, we'd love to hear from you.
Dezi, a Toronto Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in Toronto, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog from a breeder in Toronto.

Did You Know?
Don't worry - be insouciant. Perhaps your mind will rest easier if we explain that English speakers learned "insouciance" from the French in the 1700s (and the adjective "insouciant" has been part of our language since the 1800s). The French word comes from a combination of the negative prefix in- and soucier, meaning "to trouble or disturb." "Soucier" in turn traces to "sollicitus," the Latin word for "anxious." If it seems to you that "sollicitus" looks a lot like some other English words you've seen, you're right. That root also gave us "solicit" (which now means "to entreat" but which was once used to mean "to fill with concern or anxiety"), "solicitude" (meaning "uneasiness of mind"), and "solicitous" ("showing or expressing concern").
Origin and Etymology of insouciance
French, from in- + soucier to trouble, disturb, from Old French, from Latin sollicitare — more at solicit

text: I've started watching a lot more new shows lately and I'd like to have an app or maybe a site make calendar entries of new shows for that week and next so I don't forget. The NBA has something like this where they have an outlook file that you can import into your calendar to show dates of that team's games for the season. Since TV shows can skip certain weeks and go on hiatus, it maybe better to have an app that updates every week to show when the next episode will air.

You are creating an application for a major bank. The application should integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Office XP, be easy to learn, and instill a sense of corporate pride in users. Name two ways you might approach these goals in the user interface.
Design the user interface to mimic the look and feel of Microsoft Office XP, which will allow users of Office XP to immediately feel comfortable with the new application. Integration of the corporate logo and other visual elements associated with the company will aid in identification of the program with the company.
You are writing an application that needs to display a common set of controls on several different forms. What is the fastest way to approach this problem?
Create a single form that incorporates the common controls, and use visual inheritance to create derived forms.
If you wanted to prompt a user for input every time a form received the focus, what would be the best strategy for implementing this functionality?
Write an event handler for the Activated event that implements the relevant function.
Describe two ways to set the tab order of controls on your form.
You can set the tab order in Visual Studio by choosing Tab Index from View menu and clicking each control in the order you desire. Alternatively, you can set the TabIndex property either in code or in the Properties window.
What is an extender provider, and what does it do?
Extender providers are components that provide additional properties to controls on a form. Examples include the ErrorProvider, Help Provider, and ToolTip components. They can be used to provide additional information about particular controls to the user in the user interface.
Explain when you might implement a context menu instead of a main menu.
If every possible option is exposed on a main menu, the menu can become busy and hard to use. Shortcut menus allow less frequently used options to be exposed only in situations where they are likely to be used.
Describe what is meant by field-level validation and form-level validation.
Field-level validation is the process of validating each individual field as it is entered into a form. Form-level validation describes the process of validating all the data on a form before submitting the form.
Describe how to retrieve the ASCII key code from a keystroke. How would you retrieve key combinations for non-ASCII keys?
Keystrokes can be intercepted by handling the KeyPress and KeyDown events. Both of these events relay information to their handling methods in the form of their EventArgs. The KeyPressEventArgs, relayed by the KeyPress event, exposes the ASCII value of the key pressed in the KeyPressEventArgs.KeyChar property. The KeyEventArgs, relayed by the KeyDown event, exposes properties that indicate whether non-ASCII keys such as ALT, CTRL, or Shift have been pressed. To retrieve the ASCII key code from a keystroke, you would handle the KeyPress event and get that information from the KeyPressEventArgs.KeyChar property. To retrieve non-ASCII information, you would handle the KeyDown event and use the properties exposed by the KeyEventArgs instance.
Describe in general terms how to add a control to a form at run time.
You must first declare and instantiate a new instance of the control. Then, you must add the control to the form's Controls collection. Once the control has been added to the Controls collection, you must manually set properties that govern the control's position and appearance.

General Info:
Aliases:Kraken, The Minotaur, Griffin,
Alignment:True Neutral,
Occupitation:Pet, Guardian, "Attack Dog",
Gender:Male And Female,
Icarus was "born" in the begining (around the dinosaurs age), when he first noticed the enviroment he was simply a tiny creature, his skin was still pink and he was still covered in his "mothers" liquids. Icaurs didn´t understand anything, for him everything was simply bright and loud. After awhile of adjusting to the enviroment , he was greeted by a gigantic T-Rex, the "monster" noticed the small Icarus, and responded with a loud roar. Icarus became scared and frightened, that´s when his natural instincts kicked in, and he unconsciously absorbed earth and his body grew larger and his skin grew thicker and more durable, his mouth grew with his body and his teeth grew harder than anything imaginable. Icarus became anything but humanoid looking, the monster quickly submitted to Icarus, but his instincts had already taken over. Icarus first roared a godzilla like roar, and then his whole chest became like a mouth and swallowed the T-Rex head in one go. The body kept moving for a while, until Icarus tore limb from limb and ate it all (absorbed through digestion). Icaurs body adapted with the newly found "template/DNA", and became even more fierce and scary. It is not a suprise that he became the "king" over the dinosaurs.
Icarus didn´t see it as him being the "king", he saw it as a relaxing place to live. But as all good things, they eventually end. As he saw his "kingdom" fall, he cried a tear of sadness and despair. Icarus retreated to the ocean, and quickly "adapted" to it. He spent millions of years under water, not noticing how quick it actually went by. When Icarus noticed something floating on the top of the ocean, he tried to grab it with his tentacles, but it broke, it was made of wood and it had many small lifeforms on it. He kept trying to grab the "floaters", as he called them, but everytime they kept breaking, so he decided to eat them instead of wasting them. One time he actually swallowed one of the lifeforms and gained memories and knowledge, new to him. Icarus quickly ignored and suppresed the new "knowledge/memories", sine they were loud and unwelcome. After a few more decades, he decided to rise to land again, and he did, he was greeted with a strong animal running towards him, he swallowed it whole, and took the shape of the 2 most recent lifeforms, creating a hybrid or "minotaur" according to humans. He walked around until, he was greeted with humans holding fires, they trapped him in a maze, that he couldn´t escape from. This quickly also became a traumatic experience, which made him dislike humans.
Icarus spent many years in that labyrint, many humans came and never left, they were also awfully loud, escpecially in the presence of Icarus. After growing tired, Icarus escaped by merging with the mountain and turning into a giant, where a eagle accidentally was absorbed by Icarus, when he felt the new addition to his body, he transformed into one as well. And was quickly carried away by the wind.
Icarus hid in the mountains, where silence and peace was unavoidable. But he still looked back at the old days, where he was sleeping in a jungle, everyone was afraid of him and yet they still respected him. After a long time, a woman came to the mountain, and when she found a "T-Rex" looking monster, she freaked out. She came everyday and took pictures of him, but Icarus didn´t really mind. Everyday she brought meat that she threw over to him, and see if he ate it, he always did since he liked the way it tasted. After a while she was brave enough to greet the dino, Icarus watched her calmly as she approached him. When she was merely 3 feet away, she tried putting her hand on his head, he merged with her temporarily, and created a mind link. She freaked out for the first few minutes, while Icarus kept laying there, calm and quiet. When she finally understood what was going on, she asked if he wanted to come back with her. Icarus accepted her offer since he had nothing left to do.
The woman´s name was "Lucy", and she was a daughter of a great mafia family. She asked Icarus, if he could be her guard/hunting dog. He gladly accepted, and he thought, hunted, and killed after that, it wasn´t the first time, and his nature didn´t exactly work against him. He mostly ate what was left of his preys, or atleast absorbed them. Lucy went down in history as "The One Pulling The Strings", but Icarus, simply became a legend, a myth, parents told children. But even to this day, the roar of the ultimate lifeform, still haunts the jungles and cities all around the world.
Personal Data:
Personality:Icaurs has a very submissive personality.
Description:Icarus has taken hundreds of forms, only a few consciously.
Talents:Tracking, Hunting, Killing, Napping,

Home > Wellness > Health Library > Teen Substance Abuse: Signs at Home
Your teen's behavior at home will most likely be affected if he or
she is drinking alcohol or taking other drugs. The following are some questions
to ask yourself if you suspect substance use in your teen:
Many of the behaviors listed above are normal for teenagers. So it is helpful to look for changes in patterns of behavior along with any direct evidence of substance abuse. For example, a change in pattern might be that your teen's loss of interest in school and activities seems continuous instead of just on Monday mornings. And you might notice that your teen smells of alcohol or is now using eyedrops often.
If your teen has tried
drugs or alcohol only a few times, then talking openly with him or her about this may be all that you need to do. But if your teen
has a substance abuse problem, then he or she needs to be seen by a doctor, a counselor, or both.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to brag about our Sage CRM development team. I have been pulling my hair out trying to extract historical sales data from our system so that I can determine the efficiency of various marketing efforts. I needed to be able to see what customers were acquired using each individual marketing stratagem, and then determine what the return on investment was. Unfortunately, because I'm better known for my wit than for my foresight, I have never kept track of the lifetime revenue of each individual client. When our new COO asked me for that information, I thought I was going to have to go to each individual client record and pull their revenue totals and manually input them into the report.
Stop laughing, accountants. If I had useful skills I'd be using them, that's how I ended up in sales.
Anyway, I walked over to the dev office (it's a minefield, there's empty pizza boxes everywhere over there) and asked if they could write up a report for me that sorted clients by a handful of fields, and then pulled in the lifetime receipts for that client. I had not been back at my desk for three minutes when I got the email that the report was completed.
