All Music Guide review by arwulf arwulf:
As a compendium of both famous and little-known melodies by W.C. Handy, Carl Wolfe's "Where the Blues Began" is virtually unparalleled. Twenty-one instrumental interpretations are performed by a wind sextet (trumpet, trombone, clarinet, two saxophones, and tuba) backed by violin, banjo, and piano. Wolfe's informative liner notes provide contextual background for each melody, and the overall listening/reading experience is also a highly rewarding history lesson. For example, "Harlem Blues," published in 1923, contains a passage from the folk song "I've Laid Around This Town Too Long"; "Friendless Blues" from 1926 is built around "Got No Mo' Home Than a Dog," and Handy's "Atlanta Blues" of 1924 is closely based upon "Make Me a Pallet on the Floor." Carl Wolfe's devotion to Handy's oeuvre is remarkable, and it's worth noting that nowhere on the exterior album packaging is there any mention of Wolfe or his players. The star of the show is William Christopher Handy. His old-time blues-based melodies published during the years 1913-1932 are beautifully presented in a rather austere manner of which the composer would surely have approved.

HTML5 (CEP) Panels for After Effects: Fixes, hacks and workarounds
I'm collecting a bunch of handy little code snippets and solutions from various developers so they don't get lost. Here are a few to get things started:
CEP 6.1 changes
CEP 6.1 (CC2015.1) includes changes to node.js implementation.
Adobe has posted a sample panel showing how to work in the new structure.
Command line switches
You can use Chrome's command line switches to change panel behavior and/or limits, as well as for debugging purposes. Add them to your manifest.xml file, like so:
<CEFCommandLine> <Parameter>--allow-file-access</Parameter> <Parameter>--allow-file-access-from-files</Parameter></CEFCommandLine>
Need a really long console.log()?
From Bruce Bullis:
Here's a fix to the Chrome Debugger's unwillingness to scroll past 99 Console() items, for extensions running in current Adobe apps.
Install Styler – Chrome Web Store
Go to your debug page http://localhost:8001/ (or whatever port you've designated)
Click on Styler extension icon (to right of address box)
Add "html /deep/ * { min-width: 0; min-height: 0; }" to the css.
Shorter filepath to CEP cookies
Since CEP panels are really just browser windows, you can store settings in cookies. If you need to access those cookies directly, they live here:

Refreshing the panel without closing and reopening it
If you're just working on your UI and not interactions with the host app, you can add a refresh link to your panel and save yourself a few clicks.

HTML5 (CEP) Panels for After Effects: two engines for the price of one
As I mentioned in my previous post, one of the keys to CEP panels is that they contain two distinct Javascript engines: the more modern one that runs and interacts with the panel UI (in what's basically an embedded Chrome window), and the ExtendScript (JSX) engine, which is based on an older version of Javascript and interacts with the host application.
They're asynchronous, which means they're perfectly happy to ignore each other and run on their own thread at their own pace. But a UI that couldn't talk to the host application wouldn't be very useful, so this post is all about getting the two engines to work together.
Sending data from one to the other can sometimes feel a bit like this:
There are a few tricks to make it easier, though, and to make sure the data's being sent at the right time.
Calling ExtendScript functions from Javascript
You'll probably need to do this a lot. But I have good news: it's easy!
There's a special function, evalScript(), included with CEP's CSInterface.js library that enables you to call both embedded ExtendScript and functions saved in a separate file. It's good practice to separate them (and means you won't have to do all your AE scripting within quotes!).
- Include your .jsx file in CSXS/manifest.xml, like so:
... <Resources> <MainPath>./index.html</MainPath>  </Resources> ...
- You need to reference the CSInterface library in order to use its functions, so make sure you have
var csInterface = new CSInterface();
at the top of your .js file.
- Now you can use csInterface.evalScript() to call:
- Embedded ExtendScript:
csInterface.evalScript('app.project.items.addComp("Sample", 1920, 1080, 1, 1, 23.976)');
- An external ExtendScript function:
Include the function in your JSX file, like so:
function addSampleComp() { app.project.items.addComp("Sample", 1920, 1080, 1, 1, 23.976); }
Then call it from the JS side:
- Embedded ExtendScript:
Sending data from Javascript to ExtendScript
Let's get fancier.
Note the quote marks surrounding the ExtendScript code above. The Javascript engine sees each of those code snippets as one big string. If you need to pass the value of a Javascript variable to ExtendScript, you'll need to concatenate strings around the variable:
var compName = "Sample"; csInterface.evalScript('app.project.items.addComp("' + compName + '", 1920, 1080, 1, 1, 23.976)');
Note that the inner (double) quotes are still there! ExtendScript strings need to be in quotes too, so you end up with quotes within quotes. This is one of the first things I check when debugging — it's easy to forget to include the inner quote marks.
What about functions with multiple arguments?
csInterface.evalScript('setFilepath("' + pathType + '","' + result + '")');
Hmm. But I need to send a lot of data.
Pass an object of any size using JSON.stringify().
csInterface.evalScript('initRecording(' + JSON.stringify(recData) + ')');
You don't need to parse the object on the JSX side before accessing it.
Calling Javascript functions from ExtendScript
I cheated a bit with the last example. In my actual script, that line looks a little different:
csInterface.evalScript('initRecording(' + tracktype + ',' + JSON.stringify(recData) + ')', setRecVars);
There's a second, optional part to .evalScript(). In this example, setRecVars is a callback function. That means the Javascript engine waits for ExtendScript to complete whatever it needs to do, then lets the Javascript engine know it's done, and that it can go ahead and execute that function.
You can call a function you've declared elsewhere in your script, like I've done in this example, or you can add a one-off anonymous function.
function callbackFunction(){ // Do some stuff } csInterface.evalScript('someFunction()', callbackFunction);
csInterface.evalScript('someFunction()', function(){ // Do some stuff });
I'm not going to go too in-depth on callbacks here, but they are vital to CEP panel development. Not only can you do things like change your UI based on the comp you just created, you can chain a bunch of these functions together and pingpong your way across the JS-JSX divide.
Sending data from Extendscript to Javascript
The simplest method is to return a single value, and handle it with a callback function, as above.
When you need to transmit more information, things get trickier. The official documentation suggests an elaborate process involving the use of the plugPlugExternalObject library to dispatch events with payloads. You can ignore those recommendations, and simply send send data from JSX to JS as stringified JSON.
Well, I say "simply" but there are two big caveats:
- JSON isn't built into ExtendScript, so you'll need to download the library and include it at the top of your JSX file:
#include "../js/libs/json2.js"
- Much more confusingly, JSON.stringify() doesn't like packing up "circular values" — values that refer to other values. For example, if you've shortened app.project.activeItem to a variable called theComp, sending the JS engine a reference to a layer as theComp.layer(index) won't work. Fortunately, Michael Delaney figured out a solution:
// Michael Delaney's fix to strip out circular functions function (data, out) { var e, k, results; if (out === null) { out = {}; } if (!data) { return void 0; } if (typeof data === 'object') { results = []; for (k in data) { if (k === "theComp" || k === "parentFolder" || k === "source") { if (data[k]) { out[k] = data[k].id; } } } return results; } else { return data; } }
This function replaces circular references with their specific ID values. Run your outgoing object through it before returning your data object as JSON, and it should work.
return JSON.stringify(data);
On the JS side, handle the JSX data by using JSON.parse() to parse the result in the callback function. Here's a simple example that notifies the user if an error occurred and changes a variable:
function endRecording(result) { returnedData = JSON.parse(result); if (returnedData.warning !== undefined) { alert(returnedData.warning); return; } ready = returnedData.ready; }
Referring to another file from ExtendScript
I'll add one last thing as a bonus, because it took me way too long to figure this one out.
Say you have a preset saved as an .ffx file in the same directory as your JSX file. You'd think you could just use .applyPreset(File("presetfile.ffx")), right?
There's a weird quirk of CEP panels where, when you call its functions via JS, your JSX file doesn't know its own directory. This shouldn't be this hard, but here's my super awesome workaround (note sarcasm):
On the JSX side:
var presetFile; function setJSXpath(pathdata) { presetFile = File(pathdata + "presetfile.ffx"); } targetLayer.applyPreset(presetFile);
On the JS side (which does know its directory):
var JSXpath = (window.location.href.substr(0, location.href.lastIndexOf("/") + 1) + "jsx/").toString(); csInterface.evalScript('setJSXpath("' + JSXpath + '")');
Not elegant, but it works.¯\_(?)_/¯
Getting started with HTML5 (CEP) Panels for After Effects
I've spent a lot of time over the past few months messing around with HTML5 panels in After Effects. There's so much cool stuff you can do with them, but I'll be honest: they're also a lot more work to get working than standard scriptUI panels. That goes for both developers ("What is this 'manifest file' you speak of? Wait, there are two asynchronous Javascript engines running at the same time? And how the heck do I package this thing for distribution?") and end users ("You mean I actually have to install this version-specific extension instead of just copying and pasting a file into a folder? And that process might involve the command line?")
That sounds like a lot more work.
It is. So why would you want to bother?
Because you can hook into any of hundreds of thousands of Javascript and node.js libraries. You can connect your AE comps to external data or even hardware. You can build elaborate, lively UIs that are way more interactive than scriptUI panels. And everything you learn about building said pretty UIs is transferable to general web design; you're not working in some weird specialized language. You can even make panels that span multiple CC apps — and make the apps talk to each other through them.
That sounds awesome. What are the drawbacks?
There's very little documentation for these panels in general, and almost nothing After Effects-specific. (Though I'm trying to help by posting this.) A decent chunk of the existing documentation is out of date, too.
There's a lot of stuff that works in one Adobe app but not others, or that only works in one version of AE. Not only are they incompatible with any pre-CC versions of AE, there are different versions of CEP (the Common Extensibility Platform, the framework the panels run on) for each application release.
There are a lot of things that seem like they should be easy to do but require workarounds. Even getting a totally blank panel to show up takes work, and possibly a registry edit.
And you're going to have to learn a lot about callback functions.
So you still want to make one, huh? Here's how to get started.
These panels have a standard structure and a couple required files. You can build the whole thing from scratch, copy one of Adobe's sample panels, or use a template generator. You'll want to give the project one of those reverse-URL-style names, e.g. com.yourname.panelname.
You'll end up with a structure that looks roughly like this:
For AE to be able to see your panel you need a manifest.xml file. This is where you specify which applications it's for (and which versions thereof), where CEP should look for your ExtendScript files, and other basic-but-important stuff like what your panel is called and how big it should be.
Beyond that, if you've ever done website design things should look pretty familiar structurally: an index.html file that loads external Javascript and CSS files.
My development setup (Adjust to your own needs as necessary, there's no one "right" way to work):
- Bitbucket/SourceTree: Unlike GitHub, Bitbucket private repositories are free for up to five users. Version control is really important, as there are so many moving parts that I find myself breaking things on the regular.
- Brackets: it's a nice text editor to develop in, and has a very useful extension by David Deraedt called
- Creative Cloud Extension Builder that will create CEP extension templates for you. Once I've created a new panel, I move it from the directory AE wants it in to where I've set up my Bitbucket repository, then use Link Shell Extension to create a symbolic link from there back to the CEP folder. That way, I don't have to deal with permissions issues, but AE still sees the extension. (Note: I'm on Windows; you can do something similar on OSX with different tools.)
- Bootstrap as an HTML/CSS/JS UI framework. The Cyborg theme gets you pretty close to something Adobe-ish (Adobish?), though I've had to customize a lot of elements — panels usually need to be much more compact than websites. Bootstrap is widely used and well-documented, so almost anything you want to do with it is a quick Google search away.
- Chrome for remote debugging (Safari used to work, but is no longer an option with CEP 6). Since I'm only making an AE-compatible panel, my .debug file looks like this (replace the extension ID with your own panel's name):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ExtensionList> <Extension Id="com.yourname.yourpanel"> <HostList>  <Host Name="AEFT" Port="8092" /> </HostList> </Extension> </ExtensionList>
And hey, with remote debugging you can test CSS edits in Chrome's dev tools and watch your panel update live in AE!
- ExtendScript Toolkit for debugging the AE side of the code
- Trello to track my progress
Okay, now that I've made a panel, how do I open it in AE? I put the folder in the right place, but it's not showing up under Window > Extensions!
By default, unsigned extensions are hidden. Here's how to show them. You'll need to do this for each version of AE/CEP you're developing for.
Are my end users going to have to edit their registries, too?
Let's hope not. But making sure they won't have to means more work for you.
Once you've created a finished panel, you can pack it up into a signed ZXP file using ZXPSignCMD. Follow Davide Barranca's excellent tutorial for this process. Really, go read his entire blog. There's a ton of good stuff in there.
There are a few options for installation, some more automatic than others:
- Distribute your panel via Adobe Add-Ons
- Use Adobe's command line installer
- Use ZXPInstaller, a drag-and-drop version of the command line installer. Works well for me, even though it seems to think AE panels are Photoshop panels. It still puts them in the right place.
- Bundle PS-Installer with your script. This will require some customization to make it work with After Effects, as it is Photoshop-specific.
Note: DO NOT use Adobe Extension Manager to install panels. It has been discontinued, and it puts AE extensions in the wrong place. While we're at it, you may see references to Extension Builder 3. Don't use that either. It has also been discontinued, and doesn't support AE.
Further reading, because this post is already 1100 words long:
You'll want to bookmark Adobe's offical documentation: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources
There's lots of good stuff in the cookbooks, and the links at the bottom are worth a read as well.
Hopefully that's enough info to get you started. Panels are cool, once you're through all these extra bits!
Next up: sending data back and forth. This is where it gets fun.

Free After Effects Script: Incremental Screenshot
I got lazy about exporting a title sequence, and put together a quick little After Effects script. It's nothing fancy, but it works and might come in handy. It saves still frames from your active comp's work area on an incremental basis (e.g. one frame every x seconds), with a filename based on the topmost active text layer at that time.
Download Incremental Screenshot v.0.0.3
Drop this script in the folder you want to save to, adjust the settings at the top to your preference, then run it from File > Scripts > Run Script File.
Works in Windows on CC2015, assume it works elsewhere but I haven't tested it. It probably won't make your computer catch fire, but run at your own risk.
Also, thanks to renderTom for pointing me toward saveFrameToPng!
Why does Credits Are Due require AE CC2015?
I've had a bit of press and some very nice feedback on my new script (thanks everyone!). If you've bought a copy and want to show off things you've built with it, get in touch.
A couple people have asked why it's only for CC2015, though. There are two big reasons:
Credits Are Due makes use of the new sourceRectAtTime() expression method. I love this feature: it lets you access the dimensions of layers with dynamic borders, which makes it possible for the text layers in Credits Are Due to know how much space to leave for their neighbors. The script essentially works by measuring all the layer heights, spacing things out accordingly, then scrolling the parent layer. (There's also a cameo by my favorite little expression hack, setting posterizeTime() to a super-low value like .00001. This lowers the expression's effective framerate to almost nothing, so you get live updates when the comp is edited without having to recalculate layer dimensions on every frame.)
But sourceRectAtTime() was added in the most recent update to After Effects CC2014 (13.2). So why can't you use that version with Credits Are Due? Well, you can render your credits in it. But if you try to edit them, you're gonna have a bad time. Every layer in the comp needs to scroll, so as soon as you add a new one that's not yet linked, you'll spend most of your time clicking through "expression disabled" popups. Even more fun: manually re-enabling all those expressions once the new layer's been added to the scroll.
However, CC2015's new expression handling means things Just Work. Expressions re-enable themselves automatically as soon as they're able. No more popup error windows. I could probably add a bunch of checks to skip non-scrolling layers and make the math still work, but I want to keep the code to a minimum — expressions can be slow to calculate (though they do seem faster in 2015), and a couple hundred layers into a project you really start to notice. Temporarily disabling the scroll during setup seems a small price to pay for faster playback — particularly when you have a client standing over your shoulder making changes.
tl;dr: new stuff in CC2015 makes Credits Are Due work in a way that won't make you want to stab yourself in the face. Which, when you're already stuck making a credit scroll, is important.

Credits Are Due: New After Effects script in progress
I'm working on a new After Effects script for building responsive, easy-to-edit credit scrolls.
- Dynamic layout: rearrange, restyle or reclassify existing elements, or add new ones anywhere in the scroll, and everything will snap into place and update accordingly — and leave your custom text formatting alone.
- Automatic arbitrary multicolumn layouts (say that five times fast)
- Add images and footage as well as text
- Scroll in whole-pixel increments
- Change global scroll speed, position and element spacing
- Speed up previews and rendering by auto-trimming layer duration to match on-screen visibility.
It's still missing snazzy icons and the ability to grab existing elements by type (which I'm totally stealing from Layer Selector Toolbar), but everything else pretty much works.
Want to see it in action? Check out these incredibly dull screencasts:
Editing an existing sequence:
Includes cameo by world's slowest layer trimmer, only outdone by my earlier version of said layer trimmer!
Creating a new sequence:
You can also add text and image layers by any other method — once they're in the comp, just assign them element types and they'll scroll happily along.
This tool takes advantage of the recent changes to expressions in AE, so it requires CC2015 or the 13.2 version of CC2014. (And is much nicer to work with in 2015).
Credits are never fun, but this should take some of the pain out of the process. If you're interested in beta testing, get in touch.

Another quick test of my Leap Motion capture app, this time with some fancier rigging. Bonus: got it working in CC 2014!

We have known for quite a while that Zune was on its way out for a new brand. Over the past few months as new updates to Xbox have and Windows 8 RTMed, details about Microsoft's entertainment catalog were sketchy. While we knew entertainment was going under the Xbox brand, there were rumors about a major update to the music service. Cnet's Greg Sandoval broke the story about Microsoft's initial plans and a month later, Tom Warren at The Verge speculated that Microsoft was ready to launch the service at the E3. That didn't happen.
However, it looks like Microsoft is timing the launch of the service with their public launch of Windows 8/RT, Surface tablet and Windows Phone 8. In an announcement yesterday, Microsoft unveiled the new Xbox Music. The new service has kept everything that was good about Zune Music (Smart DJ, gorgeous artist backgrounds), and now is more coherent.
The features to be offered under the new service are:
- Cloud-synced playlists
- Limited free streaming on Windows Phone 8, Windows 8/RT and Xbox (unlimited for first 6 months)
- Music Subscription service (Zune Pass is now Xbox Music Pass)
- A Music marketplace
- Cross platform (Android and iOS) soon
- Add your music catalog using the scanning service
- Social integration at some point
All these features sound amazing on paper, and over time Microsoft should be able become a major music service with the one-Windows and cross-platform support. Microsoft produced a short video to explain Microsoft's grand plans with the service:
For what it's worth, I have started using Spotify because downloading and editing meta tags is a pain–it's just cumbersome to manage. However, I don't pay for Spotify Premium, I primarily listen to radio on my phone. Xbox Music subscription might make a lot of sense to me since I am Windows Phone, Windows and Xbox user.

I am starting to become discouraged because of my limited abilities lately. I tell myself that I am not a burden, but sometimes I do not believe it. Even though it feels like it will never go away, I must remember that this level of pain is not going to be forever. But sometimes when you are in severe pain, that is all you can see and feel and taste, so it can be hard to change your perspective to a healthy one.
I will have a break in the severe pain eventually. I know this. I have begun to notice the rhythms of my pain. I'm learning to go with it instead of fighting every step. I may not be able to change that I am in pain, but suffering is optional.
After all the hoopla in the last post about the opioid symposium last week, I ended up not going to the event. I admit that I was disappointed that I would not be able to make a connection with my state representative, but my mom had a medical event. She is 83, and I am her caretaker. She is self-sufficient usually, but I did not want to leave her until I was sure that it was only a virus and nothing serious.
As soon as I have the time, I will request a visit with my state government officials to discuss how chronic pain affects every aspect of our lives and how their decisions will impact the chronic pain community.
I am not advocating for opioids around the clock for everyone. I want people to understand the reason there is such a backlash from chronic pain patients about wanting their opioids is because the government agencies are leaving us with no alternatives that actually work to replace the pain relieving medicines they want to take away. I believe every person I have spoken to about this issue has said that they would never take another opioid IF they had something else that actually worked to relieve their pain.
We need more research on pain because everyone experiences it differently. How we perceive pain is a complex interaction between mind and body. There is nothing that happens in the individual that affects only the mind or only the body. This interaction involves the nervous system and other factors, which include: genetic, culture, modeling, thoughts, stress, history of abuse, and trauma.
Right now pain research is lacking, but many people are deep in the trenches working tirelessly on changing the fact that we do not have affordable, effective alternative to the opioid medicines. You can also help by telling your story to your elected officials and make them understand our difficult situation, so more money is allocated for studies about pain.
My mom is feeling much better today, and I am getting back into my regular rhythm which helps me to feel the best I can. I have been in extra pain because of the rainy, hot weeks we have been having. Also, I cannot seem to bounce back from the trip to Chicago for the chronic pain support group training. I am pushing the first organized meeting in September. I am praying that I will be able to get everything done in that timeframe.
What positive things do you do when you get discouraged by not bouncing back as fast as you would like from a flare? Do you get impatient and push through the pain or do you realize you need to up the self-care?
Much Love and Many Prayers,

Enter a magazine title or keyword
I have been a subscriber for almost three years now, and I have never regretted it!!! This mag has wonderful horse riding tips that have helped me to become a better rider! I also love the amazing stories of riders around the country who have worked so hard to get where they are today, and also the ones who have started their own equine businesses! You all inspire me!!! Thank you, Young Rider for creating this AWESOME mag!!!
I love Young Rider! I love to read their western lessons, and I love the vet questions and answers! You can also have a pen-pal...I have two! It's really cool because you are interested in the same things and live in different places, telling him/her everything about you and your horse!
Young Rider rocks!
Young Rider is such an ideal magazine for young horse lovers! I bought a subscription for my daughter for her birthday, and I think that this is probably her favorite gift. It really is "the gift that keeps on giving." Every time Young Rider comes in the mail she has a huge smile on her face. Each issue comes with 3 or more of these bright, beautiful posters that she has taped up all over her room for inspiration. The articles are easy to read, and always focus on such helpful topics like ways to improve skills. The articles and photos help kids learn the names of equipment and parts of the horse. Young Rider makes my daughter happy, encourages her to read, and is motivation for her to stay active and achieve her goals. I can't think of a more positive gift to give a child. I'm so glad that there is a publication dedicated especially to this young age group of riders.

Transfer news: Bebe expresses interest in Sporting Lisbon move
Manchester United striker Bebe has expressed an interest in completing a summer switch to Sporting Lisbon.
By Francisco Acedo
Last Updated: 16/06/13 6:01pm
The 22-year-old was a shock arrival at Old Trafford in August 2010, with United splashing out over £7million on the untested Portuguese frontman.
He has struggled for game time in England and has spent much of the last two seasons out on loan at Besiktas and Rio Ave.
Bebe is now looking for a permanent move back to his homeland and has welcomed reports suggesting Sporting are keen on acquiring his services.
"I would love to play for Sporting," he told Correio da Manha.
"The club would suit me and it is an ambition of mine to play for Sporting.
"They put faith in young players, appreciate them, and play an attractive game that suits my style. It is a club that can grow. I haven't found that in England."
Bebe believes that 'many' coaching changes have held Sporting back of late, as they 'change direction', but believes the club has 'everything to enjoy a much better future'.

Loyola Greyhounds at Georgetown Hoyas
Wednesday, March 19, 2014 | 6:00 p.m.
Washington, D.C. | Multi-Sport Field | CBS Sports Network
Quick Hits About The 'Hounds
Loyola University Maryland hits the road for a non-conference, midweek game on Wednesday, March 19, in the Nation's Capital. The Greyhounds will take on Georgetown University at 6 p.m. on Multi-Sport Field.
Wednesday's game will air live on CBS Sports Network, the second of four Loyola regular-season games that will be broadcast by the channel.
The Greyhounds played their third one-goal game of the season on Saturday, edging Army, 7-6, to move to 3-0 in the Patriot League. Loyola is now 2-1 in those one-goal games.
The one-goal win came exactly one month following the last Greyhounds' one-goal win (Penn State). In between, Loyola won four games by an average of 10.5 goals, none by less than seven.
Loyola leads the nation in fewest turnovers per game, averaging 10.43 per game after committing eight against the Black Knights.
Kevin Ryan moved up to third nationally in shot percentage with two goals on two shots against Army. He has scored goals on 59.1 percent of his shots (13-of-22) this year.
Last Time Out
Jack Runkel made a season-high 19 saves, and the Greyhounds held off a late Army charge for a 7-6 Patriot League victory on Saturday at Ridley Athletic Complex.
Army took a 4-3 lead with the first goal of the third quarter, a Shea Mullins tally at 12:37, but Loyola scored four in a row to lead 7-4 on Pat Frazier's first career goal with 8:52 left in regulation.
The Black Knights, however, got to goals in transition, the first by John Glesener and the second from Will Mazzone, to pull within a score with 2:18 remaining.
Army had possession and two shots in the final 30 seconds, but both went wide of the cage, and the Greyhounds came away with the win.
Nikko Pontrello and Kevin Ryan both scored twice for the Greyhounds, and Justin Ward had three assists. Pat Laconi scored a goal and had an assist for Loyola, as well.
Runkel's 19 saves came against 45 total Army shots. He made five saves in the first, second and fourth quarters and four in the third.
Joe Fletcher had five ground balls to lead Loyola, while Frazier had three and a caused turnover.
Turn On The Television
Wednesday's game will be broadcast live, nationally on CBS Sports Network. Dave Ryan will call the play-by-play, and Evan Washburn will handle the analysis of the action.
The game is the second of four that will feature the Greyhounds on the network. Home games against Bucknell University and Johns Hopkins University, and Loyola's March 9 win over Duke University was also televised.
In The Polls
With the win over Army, Loyola remained at No. 2 in the USILA Coaches, Warrior/Inside Lacrosse and Lacrosse Magazine media polls. Prior to Saturday's games, Loyola was tied for second in the coaches' version with Johns Hopkins University.
Series History
Georgetown and the Greyhounds will play for the 37th time in series history on Wednesday. The Greyhounds have a 30-6 advantage in the previous 36 meetings, thanks in large part to a 20-game winning streak from 1974-2001.
The Hoyas were victorious in five of six from 2002-2007, but the Greyhounds are currently riding a six-game winning streak in the rivalry.
Last season, Loyola caused 17 Georgetown turnovers, and six of the Greyhounds' goals in a 13-8 win came via transition or unsettled situations.
Nine scored goals for Loyola in the game, led by four from Zach Herreweyers and two by Harry Kutner. Justin Ward added a goal and four assists. Joe Fletcher had six ground balls and tied Josh Hawkins for team-high honors with three caused turnovers.
Since 2012
Loyola has the best winning percentage in NCAA Division I men's lacrosse since the start of the 2012 season. The Greyhounds are 35-7 during that stretch (17-1 in 2012, 11-5 in 2013 and 6-1 this season) for a .833 mark.
Only Duke has won more games (37) than Loyola during the run, but the Blue Devils are second to the Greyhounds in winning percentage by nearly eight percent (37-12, .755).
Stopping Shots
After opening the season with a .214 save percentage in the opener at Virginia, Jack Runkel has played to a .670 mark, saving 73 out of 109 shots on goal he's faced. In the last five games against Towson, Holy Cross, Lehigh, Duke and Army, Runkel has made 61 saves and allowed just 26 goals (.701).
The senior goalkeeper, who earned 2012 NCAA Championships All-Tournament honors, has a goals against average of 7.27 this season and a cumulative saves percentage of .618 through five games. He has moved up to fourth in the nation in saves percentage and seventh in goals against average.
In three years as a starter for the Greyhounds, Runkel has a 7.86 goals against average and .559 saves percentage; his record between the pipes is 33-6. He is second in wins among active goalkeepers, trailing only Maryland's Niko Amato who has 40 victories. Amato (as of Monday), however, Amato is a four-year starter, while Runkel did not start until early in his sophomore season.
Runkel picked up his fourth-straight Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Week honor on March 17, becoming the first player in League history to win any of the weekly honors (Offensive, Defensive, Goalkeeper, Rookie) four-consecutive times.
On Target
Kevin Ryan scored twice against Army, and the senior midfielder needed just two shots against the Black Knights, raising his season shooting percentage to .591. He has scored goals on 13-of-22 shots this season, and his .591 shooting percentage is ranked third in the nation.
Take out an 0-of-5 performance in the season-opener at Virginia, and Ryan has found the net on 13-of-17 shots (.764) in the Greyhounds' last six games. He has three games this year – at Holy Cross (3-of-3), at Lehigh (5-of-5) and Army (2-of-2) – in which he has scored on all of his shots.
Man-Up Success
Loyola converted on both of its extra-man opportunities against Army, raising its season conversion percentage to 59.1 through seven games. In 21 man-up possessions, the Greyhounds have scored 13 goals, and the .591 mark is good for fourth in the nation.
Nikko Pontrelo leads the way with five man-up goals, while Kevin Ryan has three and Matt Sawyer, two.
Seven of Loyola's extra-man goals have been assisted by Justin Ward.
Five-Plus For Two
Matt Sawyer scored six goals, and Nikko Pontrello tallied five for the Greyhounds on Sunday against Duke, marking the first time in over a decade that two Loyola players have scored five or more in the same game.
The last pair to do so was Gavin Prout (six) and Tim Goettelmann (five) in a 14-9 win on March 25, 2000, at 14th-ranked Brown University.
Games Of Runs
Loyola has used significant runs in all seven of its games this season, and it has had four stretches of seven or more unanswered goals. In all the Greyhounds have 12 runs of 3-0 or better. Here is a look at their four best scoring stretches:
|Time Covered
|Time Covered
|at Holy Cross
|at Virginia
Tripled Up
Matt Sawyer entered the March 9 game against Duke with a single-game high of two goals, those coming in the season-opener at the University of Virginia. It took the senior from Waxhaw, N.C., just 15-minutes, 56-seconds against the Blue Devils to match that total, and 20:51 to exceed it.
Sawyer finished the game by tripling his previous high, totaling six goals on just seven shots. His lone shot that did not find the net was perhaps his hardest of the night, and it went off the far-side post.
His six goals raised his 2014 total to 10, tied for third on the team. He now has 14 goals in his career.
Sunday's game was not the first time a member of the Sawyer family had put up six goals on Duke. Matt's older brother, three-time All-American Mike, scored six goals and had two assists in a 13-8 win over the Blue Devils in March 2012.
Slowing Scorers
Duke's Jordan Wolf and Josh Dionne came into the March 9 game tied for the team lead in goals (12 each), and the duo had a combined 235 career goals. Loyola, however, held them to just one goal each in the victory.
Against Army, Loyola faced another top scorer, John Glesener. Through six games prior to facing the Greyhounds, Glesener had scored 15 goals, but he was held to two on 22 shots by the Loyola defense.
Pontrello Putting Up Points
Nikko Pontrello had his seventh multi-goal game is as many contests to open the season on Saturday when he scored twice against Army. The game came less than a week after he scored five against Duke. He also tallied four at Lehigh and he set a career-high with six goals at Holy Cross. The junior attacker scored twice in the opener against Virginia, and he then recorded three versus both Penn State and Towson. His final goal against the Nittany Lions came 19 seconds into overtime and lifted Loyola to a 12-11 win. In his career, Loyola is now 8-0 in games that he scored three or more goals.
Pontrello leads the Greyhounds with 24 goals and 29 points through six games. He has already eclipsed his goal total from last year when he finished his sophomore campaign with 16.
He leads the Patriot League and is third nationally in goals per game (4.0), while he is second and seventh in points per game (4.83).
Record-Setting Quarterback
Justin Ward has continued to be the quarterback of the Greyhounds' offense this year, passing out 16 combined assists in the last four contests. He is third in the nation, and tops in the Patriot League, with 3.14 assists per game this year.
With four assists against Duke – the second game in he posted that total – Ward set Loyola's career Division I record (since 1982) in total assists, eclipsing the mark of 83 set from 1989-92 by Jim Blanding. Following his three against Army, Ward now has 89 in his career. Gary Hanley holds the all-time Loyola record with 160 assists. Ward is also 15th in school Division I history in total points with 133.
Ward is in his third year as a starter on attack for the Greyhound after earning USILA All-America Honorable Mention last year after finishing tops on the team in points (62) and assists (35) and second in goals (27). His 62 points ranked tied for fifth in school single-season Division I history, and his 35 assists check in at third on that list.
Midfield Scoring
Entering the 2014 season, Loyola was looking to replace five of its top seven offensive midfielders from a year ago, a group that included All-American Davis Butts, as well as first middies Chris Layne and Sean O'Sullivan. As a group, the five contributed 47 goals, 29 assists and 76 points, right at 25 percent of the Greyhounds total in each.
This year, Loyola's first and second midfield units have scored more than 45 percent of the team's goals, a total of 44. Kevin Ryan scored eight goals combined against Holy Cross and Lehigh, and he is second on the team with 13 total. Matt Sawyer's six versus Duke moved him into fourth with 10 total, and Tyler Albrecht is fifth on the squad with eight goals, while Brian Sherlock has six goals and five assists.
Fletch, White And Blue
Senior defender Joe Fletcher was the long current collegiate player selected as part of one of 52 players who made up the United States Men's National Team training roster this fall, and the day before Loyola's season-opener, he found out he is one of 30 players who made the cut for the team that will compete at the 2014 World Cup in Denver.
Against Holy Cross, Fletcher set a career-high with eight ground balls, eclipsing his previous total of seven set on three different occasions. In a pair of games against Towson and the Crusaders, he had 11 ground balls and three caused turnovers.
He earned his second Patriot League Defensive Player of the Week honor this year on Monday after picking up seven ground balls and causing a turnover against Duke. He also was primarily responsible for holding the Blue Devils' All-American attacker Jordan Wolf to one goal. Fletcher was again honored on March 17 after limiting Army's John Glesener to two goals on 22 shots.
This season, the Preseason All-American leads the Greyhounds with 30 ground balls, and he leads the squad with 11 caused turnovers. His 56 career caused turnovers are third all-time at Loyola behind the 90 of P.T. Ricci and 88 of Scott Ratliff.
Not Just Defensive Midfield
Short-stick defensive midfielder Pat Laconi was named the Patriot League Defensive Player of the Week on March 3 after matching his career-high with two goals at Lehigh.
The senior, who is a team co-captain and Preseason All-American, had a goal an assist versus Army, bringing his season totals to five goals an one assist. He now has 10 of each in his four-year career. His 10 caused turnovers this season have brought his career total to 51, fifth-most in school history.
Schultz Stepping Up
In his first year as a starter on attack for the Greyhounds, senior Brian Schultz has parlayed his opportunity into a solid start to the season. Through seven games, Schultz has scored 11 goals, third most on the team, and eight assists, second behind team-leader Justin Ward.
Entering this season, Schultz had seen most of his playing time on extra-man opportunities for the Greyhounds. As a sophomore and junior, he posted a combined three goals and five assists.
Tewaaraton Watch, Senior CLASS Award List Pair
Two of Loyola's senior co-captains were named to the Tewaaraton Award Watch List when it was released last week. Joe Fletcher and Justin Ward were among the 50 players nationally to receive recognition.
They were also two of 20 players nationally to be named candidates for the Senior CLASS Award that seniors who have performed at a high level athletically and in the classroom and who have used their platforms as student-athletes to make positive impacts in the community.

(Pocket-lint) - Jabra has announced the latest addition to its headphone range with the launch of the Jabra Revo Wireless, Jabra Revo and Jabra Vox.
Jabra is pushing the tough nature of its headphones, with the use of an aluminium frame, steel hinges and shatterproof headbands on the Jabra Revo headphones.
"Headphones are subjected to a lot of wear and tear, so consumers are demanding that they are designed to withstand the rigours of regular use," said Anne Raaen Rasmussen, senior vice-president, Mobile Division at Jabra.
The new Jabra headphones have been designed to cater for those looking for "massive, high-definition sound clarity", with Jabra adding Dolby Digital Plus technology, together with the Jabra Sound App for Android or iPhone users to get the best results.
The Jabra Revo is a conventional pair of on-ear corded headphones, also featuring a mic so you can make calls as well as enjoy your music. The corded features an in-line controller. The Jabra Revo will cost £159.99.
If you'd rather cut that cord, then the Revo Wireless are what you're after. Essentially the same headphones as the Revo, but featuring a "turntable" touch control so you can still make and receive calls or skip music tracks. The Jabra Revo Wireless will cost £199.
Finally, Jabra has announced the Jabra Vox, a set of in-ear headphones. Again, they are designed to be durable, with reinforced cables and also give you the benefit of Dolby Digitial Plus. The Jabra Vox will cost £79.99.

The other day Ryder was misbehaving and got hurt because of it. He had climbed on top of the train table which they are told not to do many times a day! He slipped off and hit his chin on the edge which caused his bottom teeth to bite into his top lip. He had a small puncture wound on one side and a lager gash on the other which both bled for a good amount of time. Once the bleeding stopped and he was cleaned up it didn't seem to bother him at all...
Yesterday Zak & I met Tracy & Kyle at Arundel Mills mall. Ryder stayed at home with Ben since he has pneumonia even though you would never know he was sick. We stood in line to see Santa since Kyle had not done this yet and he did great for his picture. Then we had lunch and walked around for a while before heading home. While there Zak picked out our family ornament for 2010.
We also made a trip to Target for a few things as well as the grocery store. While at Target I finally bought this calendar for the boys that I have been looking at for months because it was on sale. They loved helping me put all of the magnets on and there are a ton of extra ones for just about every holiday or special occasion.
I feel so behind on things I need to do before Christmas Eve. I have wrapped a few gifts, but have a ton left to do. It is just so cold in the basement at night that I have zero motivation to go down there and wrap anything once the boys go to bed which is the only time I am able to do it! I also need to find time to make 2 no-sew fleece blankets for the boys. It is 2 pieces of fleece that you cut fringe around the edges and then knot them together to make the blanket. It says it generally takes about 1 hour per blanket. I am hoping Ben will help out on those in the evenings!

First I want to give you some background how the question arised, before actually asking it.
Recently, in the context of quantum mechanics, I thought about the group $SO(3)$ and its Lie Algebra $so(3)$. Wherever I looked, I could only find a construction of $so(3)$ very concretely in terms of matrices, as being the tangent space of $SO(3)$ at the identity. When considering $SO(3)$ represented as $3\times3$ matrices, it follows directly (chain rule etc.), that elements in $so(3)$ are anti-symmetric, real $3\times3$ matrices and form a three dimensional vector space. Therefore (with the knowledge that they can be represented as matrices) we can take the commutator as being the Lie Bracket in $so(3)$, although in the Lie Algebra $so(3)$ a priori there is no product defined, which even rises the question why the commutator lies again in $so(3)$. Matrix multiplication in $SO(3)$ gives addition in $so(3)$ (chain rule).
It seems as if the Lie Bracket, as being the commutator, gets its definition from the fact, that we know elements in $so(3)$ can be represented as matrices.
Therefore my questions are the following:
What is $SO(3)$ as abstract group? How can we get hold of it and present it without matrices? Especially with regard to the second question:
How to get the Lie Algebra out of $SO(3)$ in an algebraically satisfying way, i.e. without the explicit construction of matrices?
Looking forward for interesting ideas!
Cheers, Niki
ps.: Although I am sure, if we take the ill of matrices, there should be at least a way of getting the commutator in $so(3)$ without multiplying matrices, but I only found the following argument for $R_i(t) \in SO(3) \ \forall t$ and $R_i(0) = id$: \begin{eqnarray} [\Omega_1,\Omega_2] = \frac{d}{dt} R_1(t)\Omega_2 R_1(t)^{-1} \mid_{t=0} \newline \mbox{where } \frac{d}{dt}R_i(t) \mid_{t=0} = \Omega_i \newline \mbox{with } R\Omega_i R^{-1} = \frac{d}{dt}R R_i(t) R^{-1} \mid_{t=0} \end{eqnarray}

So let me set the record straight. And the best place to start is the QNX booth at 2011 CES, where a BMW Z4 roadster was the front-and-center attraction.
BMW Z4 Roadster with ConnectedDrive
The Z4 wasn't a technology concept car, but a true production car straight off the dealer lot. It was equipped with the QNX-based BMW ConnectedDrive system, which offers real-time traffic information, automatic emergency calling, and a text-to-speech feature that can read aloud emails, appointments, text messages, and other information from Bluetooth smartphones. It's a cool system right at home in this equally cool cockpit:
Heck, the whole car was cool, from the wheels up:
Audi A8 with Google Earth
Mind you, the coolness didn't stop at the QNX booth. Just down the hall, Audi showcased an A8 sedan equipped with the QNX-based 3G MMI infotainment system, featuring Google Earth. This same model drove home with the 2011 Edmunds Breakthrough Technology award a short while later.
I don't have any photos of the Audi from the CES show floor, but if you head over to the On Q blog, you can see some snaps from an automotive event that QNX hosted in Stuttgart two months earlier. The photos highlight the A8's innovative touchpad, which lets you input destination names by tracing them with your finger.
Toyota Entune infotainment system
And now to another award-winning QNX-based system. Toyota Entune embraces a simple, yet hard-to-achieve concept: help drivers interact with mobile content and applications in a non-distracting, handsfree fashion. For instance, if you are searching for a nearby restaurant, Entune lets you ask for it in a conversational fashion; no need for specific voice commands.
You could tell the judges for the CNET Best of CES awards were impressed, because they awarded Entune first prize, in the Car Tech category — the first of three QNX-powered systems to do. QNX Software Systems went on to win in 2011 for its QNX CAR Platform and then Chevy won in 2012 for its MyLink system. Not too shabby.
A cluster of clusters
We've looked at just three of the many QNX-based automotive systems showcased at 2011 CES. For instance, QNX also demonstrated digital instrument clusters built by Visteon for the Land Rover Range Rover and for the Jaguar XJ sedan, below:
Freescale, NVIDIA, TeleNav, and Texas Instruments also got into the act, demonstrating QNX systems in their booths and meeting areas.
Do you have any memories of 2011 CES? I'd love to hear them.

Decision : CONF 208 X.B
Galápagos Islands [Extension to include the Galápagos Marine Reserve] (Ecuador)
Property: Galápagos Islands [Extension to include the Galápagos Marine Reserve
Id. N°: 1 Bis
State Party: Ecuador
Criteria: N (i) (ii) (iii) (iv)
The Committee approved the extension of the Galápagos Islands by the addition of the Galápagos Marine Reserve, maintaining the existing natural criteria (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv). The Marine Reserve adds substantially to the justification of the existing World Heritage site as one of the premier nature reserves on the planet. The Committee requested the Government of Ecuador to finalize as soon as possible the adoption of the regulations deriving from the Special Law for Galápagos. The Committee stressed the importance of long-term protection and management of the site and noted that the extension will further enhance the protection of the site. The Committee commended the State Party on progress made and requested it to invite a mission to review the implementation of the regulations in late 2002.

Refund Policy
Upon registering, 25% of the camp tuition is considered a non-refundable deposit. The remaining portion of camp tuition can be refunded if requested one month prior to the original date of camp, using the local time of the camp for official time. (Example: A November 15th camp will have a refund deadline of October 15th). Since space is limited, no refunds will be given after this date for any reason. After the refund deadline, a full camp credit will be held for the registered player and no cash refunds will be given. At no point, will more than 75% of the camp tuition be refunded.
You must use the
"Contact Us"
link on the camp's website to request a refund. You will receive a confirmation of your refund request within 1-2 business days. Refunds will be issued back to the card used to register within two (2) weeks of the request being sent and confirmed. Refunds will appear on your statement as a credit from "Ryzer". If a refund cannot be issued back to the original card then a check will be mailed. Checks can take up to two (2) weeks additional time to process and be received by the registrant. Camp tuition can possibly be transferred (earliest refund date applies) to a different College Coaches Showcase Camp event if space is available. There is no guarantee as to the proximity of other sessions of the College Coaches Showcase Camp.
The coaches and instructors in attendance at the camp do not have any discretion when it comes to determining refunds. Please do not attempt to contact any of the coaches in attendance regarding refunds or insurance claims. Although it rarely happens, a coach may cancel their attendance in the camp beyond the control of the College Coaches Showcase Camp. A coach's lack of attendance is not grounds for any type of refund. On occasion inclement weather may occur on the camp date, during the camp, immediately after the camp or prior to the camp. Every effort will be made to hold the camp regardless of inclement weather. Should the camp be impossible to hold then full camp credit will be extended to future College Coaches Showcase Camp events either later that academic year or in future years. Inclement weather is not grounds for a refund.
Ryzer processes our registrations. Any processing fees payable to Ryzer through the registration process are not refundable at any time. This is Ryzer's refund policy and it is clearly stated during registration.
Every effort will be made to hold the camp in a safe and fun atmosphere. Should inclement weather change the schedule prior to the day's session beginning then an update will be sent through email, text message (if possible) and updated on the camp website. Please check the camp website before leaving for camp even if the weather forecast looks good.
Should inclement weather occur during camp which doesn't allow the day's activities to continue then it is the responsibility of the softball players parents/guardians to pick up their child(ren) immediately. Any major changes to the day's schedule will be updated through email, text message (if possible) and on the camp website.
If you have any questions about the refund policy, please use the

Wish Upon a Giggy
WWHL's Associate Producer reveals her ultimate wish while recapping the wild week that was.
Catfights, Ron Ron Juice, and Lea Black - oh what a week it's been.
Now, the 'Real Housewives' franchise has given us wig pulls, table flips, and year after year of Posche Fashion Show meltdowns. However, I must say, I've never seen anything quite as impressive as the Alexis and Krystle fights on 'Dynasty.' The WWHL staff knew that this level of lady-on-lady fighting was screaming for a remix. So, that's exactly what we did. Check it out…
If I can only be granted one wish from my Giggy in a Bottle, may it be that I am lucky enough to engage in a fight that results in being pushed into a lily pond. *Fingers Crossed*
(P.S. I don't actually have Giggy in a bottle. Lisa Vanderpump, please don't have me arrested.)
After the show, Amy and Lea stuck around for a few moments and chatted by my desk. I can only hope that the two of them will have a Kiki in Miami, and that Elaine Lancaster will be there, and maybe a fight will break out, and maybe someone will get pushed into a lily pond, aaand maybe that person will be me! Dream accomplished! However, I promise we will not splash water on Lisa Hochstein's speakers and ruin her party.
