TOKYO - Milos Raonic may have been tired, but it didn't show.
The third-seeded Canadian downed Japan's Go Soeda 6-4, 7-6 (0) on Wednesday in the first round of the Japan Open as he tries to finish the ATP Tour season on a high note.
Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., finished with a forehand winner down the line as he completely overwhelmed his Japanese opponent in the tiebreaker.
"I did a lot of things well, I served well in tough situations even if my serve was going in and out a bit. It was an early match for me (11 a.m.)," said Raonic, who won the Thailand Open on Sunday. "Most of my matches in Bangkok were in late afternoon or at night.
"But I believe I have adjusted well. I've dealt with a lot of issues but in the important moments my game has held up. I served well and played a good tiebreaker, I buckled down when I had to."
Raonic will next play Jeremy Chardy of France, who defeated Swiss qualifier Marco Chiudinelli 7-6 (2), 3-6, 7-6 (6).
The 22-year-old Canadian is a provisional 11th in the race to the eight-man season wrapup in London next month and is working in Asia to try to qualify for the elite event for the first time.
Raonic improved to 38-17 on the season with the victory. Soeda is now 0-9 at his home tournament.
Raonic had 24 aces and never faced a break point. His break of Soeda in the third game of the opening set was enough to win the set after 35 minutes with his 10th ace. He dominated in the second-set tiebreaker to earn the victory.
Raonic took a break after Wimbledon and has been working on his conditioning in recent weeks. He's won 17 matches and lost five since his appearance at the All-England Club.
"I think taking a longer period after Wimbledon to work on fitness really helped me," said Raonic. "When I returned to the court I had more confidence and I've kept that going. It's still helping me a lot at this moment."
Raonic is playing Tokyo for the fourth straight year, standing 7-3 in the Japanese capital after making his breakthrough as a qualifier in only his second ATP-level event.
Also Wednesday, top-seeded Juan Martin del Potro moved into the quarter-finals with a comfortable 6-2, 6-2 win over fellow Argentine Carlos Berlocq.
Del Potro broke Berlocq's serve twice in the second set, and lost only eight points on serve under the roof, closed by rain. After Tuesday's three-set victory over Marcos Baghdatis, del Potro said it was good to find his rhythm.
"I played a lot better than yesterday," del Potro said. "I served well, my forehand was strong and I was able to break his serve and be aggressive. I had control of the match all the time which was important to me."
Del Potro, who is seeking his third title of the season following victories in Rotterdam and Washington, will next play Alexandr Dolgopolov of Ukraine, who defeated eighth-seeded Janko Tipsarevic of Serbia 6-3, 7-6 (2).
In the day's only upset, Ivan Dodig of Croatia ousted second-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-4, 7-6 (5).
Matching 2009 champion Tsonga with nine aces, Dodig saved all three break points he faced.
Dodig will attempt to earn a place in his third semifinal of 2013 against Jarkko Nieminen of Finalnd, who beat Michal Przysiezny of Poland 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2.
Raonic lost in the final last year to local favourite Kei Nishikori, who will face Feliciano Lopez of Spain in the second round on Thursday.
The fourth-seeded Nishikori is on the verge of becoming the first Japanese player to break into the top 10 and is bidding to win his second title of the season.

Waiting for kickoff in the tense atmosphere of an old timey college football locker room - leather helmets strewn around, operating table prepared for amputations - legendary coach John Heisman would often show his players a football and ask:
"What is this?"
Answering his own question he would continue:
"A football is a prolate spheroid, an elongated sphere-in which the outer leather casing is drawn up tightly over a somewhat smaller rubber tubing."
He would then pause before continuing:
"Better to have died as a small boy than to fumble this football."
When I was young lad, my father often mused to me as we wandered England's back streets towards some football ground or other: "Samuel, of all the unimportant things in life, football is the most important."
He wasn't talking about college pigskin, but the point stands. This game is perhaps not quite life and death, but if you think it's anything less than important you've probably never been to Alabama and you're definitely reading the wrong blog.
The identity and soul of this country are inextricably linked to its Universities - of which its people are so rightly proud - and its games. The English speaking race has excelled at inventing the world's greatest games. Football in all its forms, cricket, tennis, golf, baseball, basketball... the world's most popular and vibrant games all hail from the anglophone sphere. Perhaps these games have spread so far and so fast because of the strength of Anglo-American imperialism, but I doubt it. I am convinced of the simpler, obvious explanation. People play our games because they are brilliant and no one else has come up with any better.
Of all those games in all their forms none is as unique and flavourful as college football. Its pageantry, parochial charm and delicious regional variety are peerless. Nowhere else in the world can one find 100,000 paying souls watching a show put on by amateurs. In no other game can a man live for half a decade at the very height of public attention before receding so briskly into the shadows of history, all without earning a cent (ideally). America has produced no game so powerfully tied to the lives, identity, and emotional well being of so many. We care and invest so much, but beyond these shores our game is completely unknown. This game belongs to Americans alone.
For better or worse, this game will forever remain central to American life, experience, education and pride. Its history is fascinating to say the very least. The more we forget that history the more abuse of the game in its modern form we will tolerate.
This blog is the work of a historian, a traditionalist and a purist. I defy all Jonny-come-latelies (yeah, I'm talking to you Miami). I reject the legitimacy of astro-turf (Buckeyes). I insist that black does not belong on a college football player above the ankle (Texas Tech). I adore Jo Paterno.
Several people have encouraged me to consider writing a book about this game. Perhaps one day I will. No doubt my historical skill set stands a better chance of making me some cash in this field than in writing diplomatic histories of American maritime affairs.
Consider this blog a first tentative step in that direction.

U.S. Entered Recession December 2007By Reuters - Print
The National Bureau of Economic Research said the U.S. economy slipped in to a recession in December of 2007. The NBER does not define a recession as two consecutive quarters of decline in real gross domestic product, as is the rule of thumb in many countries. Instead, it looks for a decline in economic activity, spread across the economy and lasting more than a few months.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The economy slipped into recession in December 2007, the National Bureau of Economic Research, the prestigious private research institute that is regarded as the arbiter of U.S. recessions, declared on Monday.
The NBER's business cycle dating committee said its members met by conference call on Friday and concluded that the 73-month economic expansion had ended. The previous period of economic expansion, which ended in 2001, lasted 10 years.
The current recession, which many economists expect to persist through the middle of next year, is already the third-longest since the Great Depression, behind only the 16-month slumps of the mid-1970s and early 1980s.
The NBER does not define a recession as two consecutive quarters of decline in real gross domestic product, as is the rule of thumb in many countries. Instead, it looks for a decline in economic activity, spread across the economy and lasting more than a few months.
The current downturn was particularly tricky to define because gross domestic product remained positive until the third quarter this year. The NBER said its committee looked at payrolls, which peaked in December 2007 and declined in every month since then, as well as real GDP and other data series to determine when the recession started.
"The committee determined that the decline in economic activity in 2008 met the standard for a recession," the NBER said in a statement. "All evidence other than the ambiguous movements of the quarterly product-side measure of domestic production confirmed that conclusion."
The White House acknowledged the NBER's declaration, but said that did not change its course on coping with the financial crisis that has raged since August 2007.
"The most important things we can do for the economy right now are to return the financial and credit markets to normal, and to continue to make progress in housing, and that's where we'll continue to focus," White House spokesman Tony Fratto said.

"We became profitable for the fourth quarter of 2009, and now we're shooting for profits for the entire 2010 [period]," Tom Conrad, Pandora's chief technology officer, told GigaOM.
They became profitable in Q4 of 2009 and have done nothing but grow by leaps and bounds since then. The only reason they wouldn't be stacking cash is because they are reinvesting in themselves.
ho, you have got to love this time of the year. once again Charles has been caught in a lie but wont admit hes proven to be wrong. Just like Havasucker will look out the window to see 4 feet of snow and say welp, that must be due to glopal warming.
Founder Tim Westergren won't say if Pandora was profitable in 2010, explaining they're focusing on more than the bottom line. "It's not the principle goal right now — we're focused on growth," he says.
now this is an example of why you dont see me going to far off the reservation. i stick only with facts which can be proven. let me remind you again what charels said
What revenues did you do last year?
TW: We can't discuss numbers but it's all going in the right direction.
now here's charles proof:
you just cant admit you have lost. i stick only with facts, logic and common sense and things that can be proved unlike charles who uses assumptions, speculation and hearsay. thats a big difference
you and havasucker probabnly thing the muslim brotherhood will be good for egypt for god sake simply because of things you assume to be true that are proven to be wrong evertime
So the point being, watch how you come to your conclusions. Hey you can be like me for instance, I use 4 things (facts, logic, common sense, and history) correctly, I have been proven to be correct MOST (not all) of the time.

I thought this was an argument about Pandora? You had to drag me and weather into it didnt you John. LOL
There you go again John mixing up winters WEATHER with the year round CLIMATE.
You do know the difference John dont you? Obviously not.
And by the way, your argument is a retread from last year and you
were proven miserably wrong.
Earth to John: 2010 tied for the WARMEST YEAR ON RECORD. Please return to your
cave mr. Neanderthal.
P.S. Were you the same John who was wrong about the stock market's moves toward the
end of the year (just ask S&L. Dont take my word for it) and beginning of this year, and wrong about SXM pushing out their debt to later years?
Now back to Pandora. Thank you.

Like I said, they restructured their royalty deal which allowed them to become profitable. That is true. They did restructure their royalty rates and they did become profitable because of it. This is public knowledge. I'm not basing my comments on 10 year old comments, I am basing them on the last known definitive answer given from the company a few quarters ago.
"We can't discuss numbers but it is all going in the right direction" is not proof that they are not profitable (in fact, it sounds like they are to me). As far as we know, based on their last public update, they are in fact profitable. As soon as they come out and say that they are no longer profitable, we will know things have changed.
Stick to the facts.
Fact: They have a better royalty rate than Sirius XM
Fact: That new rate allowed them to become profitable.
Fact: They have not stated that they are not profitable since becoming profitable.
Q: You settled your issues on Internet royalty rates some years back are you happy with where your content costs are today?
TW: We negotiated a resolution which runs through 2015. Our rate is known but we continue to work on a lack of parity because Internet radio pays a lot more than other forms of radio. And it's a case where over time new platforms have come out and been treated differently for no apparent reason. So Internet radio pays a much higher royalty per song than Sirius XM for instance while broadcast radio pays no performance fee. So we're not happy with that still.

So Internet radio pays a much higher royalty per song than Sirius XM for instance while broadcast radio pays no performance fee. So we're not happy with that still.
"For more than two years now I have been eagerly anticipating the day when I could finally write these words: the royalty crisis is over!" Westergren wrote in a message to users at the company's website. "Pandora is finally on safe ground with a long-term agreement for survivable royalty rates."
The deal with webcasters, artists, and record labels staves off a virtual death blow that could have been dealt to Pandora by a "calamitous" Internet radio royalty ruling" by US regulators in 2007, according to Westergren.
Two years ago, the US Copyright Royalty Board set a new fee structure for Web music broadcasts that Westergren and other Internet radio proponents decried as ruinous for the business.
Westergren described the freshly negotiated royalty rates as "quite high" but manageable. He said Pandora will have to control costs by limiting users to 40 hours each of free online music listening monthly.
Users will be given the option of paying a flat fee of 99 cents in any given month to continue listening past the 40-hour play limit, according to Pandora.
"In essence, we're asking our heaviest users to put a dollar (well, almost a dollar) in the tip jar in any month in which they listen over 40 hours," Westergren said.
"We hate the idea of limiting anyone's listening, but we have no choice but to react the economic realities of the new rates."
ho, thats some sweatheart deal they got and you conveniently left out that the current royalty deal expires in 2015. no wonder morgan stanley is rushing this ipo out the door. god help the small investor who get scammed by this offering only to find that the actual time spent listening to Pandora is decreasing as smart phone penitration is increasing and since almost all of there revenue comes from advertising, whoops, last.fm
again I will point out that they have only ever stated that they were profitable in the 4th quarter of 2009. if you have prrof that there is any public record of Pandora stating that they were profitable besides that 1 quarter than I would link to that because I cannot find it.
let me remind you that they have only ever publicly stated that they were profitable in the 4th quarter of 2009 which does not automatically mean they were profitable any time after that because they themselves have never stated this too be the case. you do not seem to understand this because either you are a dumb twit or you are like havasucker and do not understand that there are high costs associated with refinancing debt.

Their internet streaming royalty rates are lower than SiriusXm's internet streaming royalty rates. Tim is comparing apples to oranges in that statement (over the air satellite vs streaming internet). Obviously because he is posturing for an even better deal. But, you already knew that, you just like to argue. I'm not arguing with you or anyone else, just putting information out there for discussion.
2015 is a long contract period. Again, they are going to continue to get a rate that makes both them and the RIAA the most money possible because it behooves the RIAA to do so. The RIAA will not pressure Pandora to a point of failure because they too will lose.
Just so you know I enjoy these arguements not once was I pissed (laughed alot) but not pissed, thats because I dont get emotional about it. You do that and you will lose, trust me especially with me you had better keep a clear mind and have a good memory of what you have said before, I love to pull up old crap on people to prove my arguement
just like Havasucker who will say opps, we didn't know the muslim brotherhood would take over egypt someone must have lied to us

Pandora tunes up for IPO, looks to raise $100M
By RACHEL METZ , 02.11.11, 07:27 PM EST
The company has lost $83.9 million since its inception and remains unprofitable, according to Friday's filing. In the first nine months of its last fiscal year, Pandora suffered a $328,000 loss on revenue of $90.1 million.
The filing said its independent auditor determined there was "material weakness" in Pandora's financial reporting practices. The company said it's trying to fix the problems.

As mentioned in the liveblog, Philips has stumped up a new home theater system that's as small, and almost as round as, a soccer ball—for those of us bored of boring, standard rectangular entertainment gadgets. Though it's tiny, it fits in an iPod dock, a five-channel amp, six speakers and a subwoofer built into the base. It must be pretty cramped inside, since it's just 10.75-inches across, and only 6.75 high. The DVD player can cope with DivX, MPEG-4 and WMV, and upscales to 1080p over HDMI and the CD player can read MP3 discs, and it's got USB-in. If that's whetted your appetite, you'll have to wait as there's no info yet on timing or price. But the press release is below.
Berlin, Germany – Philips has found a new way to put a complete home theater system into another surprising form factor without compromising on quality: The Philips CinemaOne (http://www.philips.com/ambisound) combines a DVD and CD player, an iPod dock, a five channel amplifier, six speakers, and a subwoofer all into a single stylish box of the size of a football, This small, stylish all-in-one home cinema system is the perfect fit for small spaces and budgets. Measuring just 27.3 x 17.2 x 27.3cm (wxhxd) the Philips CinemaOne surprises with a great surround sound experience caused by six precisely angled speakers which are positioned around the body of the CinemaOne. The 4" subwoofer is built into the base of the unit whereby the installation is clutter free without the need for extra power cables and speaker wires. With the Philips CinemaOne a cinema like experience can be created also in smaller spaces like the living room of a student appartment, the bedroom, or in the office. Technical details CinemaOne's five channel amplifier and DSP (Digital Signal Processing) unit can process Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG2 multichannel or stereo sound tracks and uses Philips' proprietary sound and array processing technology to create a realistic and immersive cinema sound effect with distinct and clear dialogue, a convincingly wide sound stage and powerful deep bass. The CinemaOne is compatible with nearly any format of movie – including DivX, Mpeg and WMV - from just about every type of DVD, CD or iPod. The dock also allows an iPod to be controlled via the units remote control while all track information can be accessed via the TV screen. Movies can be upscaled to 1080p HD resolution with a pristine digital quality transfer to the TV via the HDMI connector. The CinemaOne also offers the high quality display of jpeg photos and includes flip, rotate, slideshow and zoom functions. A hi-speed USB port and MP3 link allows connection to a huge variety of portable devices - using PCM, WMA or MP3 - while Philips' unique Fullsound technology uses the CinemaOne's DSP to restore the emotion, warmth and dynamics to compressed MP3 music tracks.

Community joins puppy in fight for life
Abandoned and starved, the black Lab puppy found late last week on the steps of the Dayton Community Center was given a 25 percent chance of survival by veterinarians.
"She was on death's door," said Helen Houston, who learned of the puppy's plight on a social media page for Dayton residents.
As soon as she laid eyes on the limp, languid creature, Houston was committed.
"She just touched my heart," she said. "She wanted to fight. I thought, I'm going to help her fight. "
Houston first took the dog — with its new moniker Charlie — to DOCS Veterinary Hospital in Carson City, where she learned the puppy was about 6 weeks old, suffering from malnutrition, dehydration and an unknown virus.
Certain Charlie would not survive the night otherwise, Houston took her to the Animal Emergency Center in Reno, where she spent the weekend. On Monday, the puppy was transferred to Dayton Riverside Veterinary Hospital.
Dr. Danny Larson said its hard to know exactly what's wrong with the dog. Although tests are negative for parvo, a common often fatal canine virus, Larson said it can't be completely ruled out.
"It's all supportive care trying to provide her with the things she needs to stay alive," he said. "It's basically trying to get some calories into her and keep her hydrated with some antibiotics to fight off any infections."
He said Charlie needs to build up her strength, but the odds are against her.
"Her prognosis is poor," he said. "Guarded at best."
While Houston is taking Charlie in as her own, she is quick to point out that the community rescued the pup. Several people responded to the notification on the Dayton Peeps page on Facebook, and Houston's friend Stacy Masters created an additional page, Saving Charlie Dayton, to keep member updated on the puppy's progress.
"I think she's worth saving," Masters said. "I think she deserves a second chance."
Houston said she had a black Lab that she adored years ago, when her children were young.
"I never really wanted another dog until I fell in love with Charlie," she said. "I don't know what it was that made me just melt, but I did."
Fundraisers set up for Charlie have collected more than $1,500. While vet bills are still piling up, Houston said she has been overwhelmed at the support.
"This little puppy has no idea how many people she has rooting for her," Houston said. "She just has to pull through.
"As long as she's willing to fight, I'm going to fight right there with her."

Kiwis waiting on Sonny's World Cup call
Kiwis convenor of selectors Tony Iro is awaiting word from the Sonny Bill Williams camp whether the dual international will make himself available for New Zealand in the rugby league World Cup.
He said Kiwis coach Stephen Kearney was seeking clarification about Williams' position and a decision was expected to be announced later on Monday.
"I'm just waiting to hear back from my coaches," Iro told AAP.
Williams' availability has been the major talking point ahead of the defending champions' squad announcement on Tuesday.
The second-rower, who gained his first Kiwis cap in 2004, played seven Tests before his switch to rugby union in 2008, so missed New Zealand's World Cup triumph later that year.
He returned to league this year with the Sydney Roosters and had a significant role in their dramatic 26-18 NRL grand final win over Manly on Sunday.
The 28-year-old said after the match that he would make a decision in the next couple of weeks over his footballing future.
A 19-Test All Black who was part of the 2011 World Cup-winning side, he has been tipped to return to rugby with the Chiefs.
The Kiwis have good depth in their back-row options, but Williams would provide them with the X-factor.
Their back-row stocks include skipper Simon Mannering, who played in the victory over the Kangaroos in the 2008 final.
Others who took part in that 34-20 upset in Brisbane and are expected to be back are the likes of hooker Issac Luke, utility Thomas Leuluai and winger Manu Vatuvei.
Among the uncapped contenders, Dally M winger of the year Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is in line to back up his grand final win with the Roosters with selection in the squad.
While the mercurial Benji Marshall is unavailable as he prepares for a move to rugby with the Blues, young halves Kieran Foran and Shaun Johnson provide plenty of playmaking talent.
Kearney and the 24-strong squad will gather in Sydney on Saturday before flying out for Britain.
The Kiwis have a warm-up fixture against the Cook Islands in Liverpool on October 20, before beginning their Cup defence against Samoa in Warrington seven days later.

People should be involved in decisions that affect them, and free to hold powerful people accountable. We help people fight discrimination and demand their rights.
Putting votes first
Thanks to an Oxfam initiative, 166,000 women in Pakistan were able to vote for the first time in 2013.
Dropping the debt
In 2010, the IMF cancelled Haiti's debts of $268m thanks to campaigning by Oxfam and others.
Poverty is about more than aid. It's also about nobody listening to you.
Poor people usually lack power - which makes it easier for powerful people to ignore them. So millions of people have little or no say in decisions that affect them, and slim chance of influencing policies and practices that affect their lives.
This can mean governments denying people the chance to get their views across, or holding elections that aren't democratic, or vested interests prevailing over public interest.
Oxfam helps people speak out together, so their views and needs are heard and their basic rights are granted to them.
In Malawi, for example, we trained volunteers, along with government workers, to help them decide together what poor communities needed most. They came up with plans for bridges, wells and a literacy project.
And in Brazil, we backed the Quilombola community as they fought to reclaim land they traditionally occupied. The first Quilombola MP was elected, ensuring their claims will be heard nationwide.
And we're helping poor people secure other rights too - starting with proper access to information, and legal advice, so they have the knowledge and confidence to claim their rights.
We're supporting freedom of expression and people's right to demonstrate or join movements and unions - liberties denied to many, in rich countries as well as poor.
But raising voices and obtaining the right to be heard is not enough. We are also supporting authorities to fulfil their obligations and bridge the cultural and behavioural gaps between the public and people in power.

We're working towards a world where everyone has enough to eat and the opportunity to earn a decent living.
Affordable health care and a quality education are the foundations for a brighter future for poor people.
It's easy to forget what a miracle water is. With a water supply on tap, food can grow, and people can thrive.
Empowering women is vital to ending poverty. So we put women's rights at the heart of our work.
Good aid saves lives and helps poor people work their own way out of poverty.
When conflicts or natural disasters – such as the drought in East Africa in July 2011 – strike, we get there fast.
Good business is about more than making money. Companies can lift millions of people out of poverty.

By most accounts I am a fairly patient person. I do, however, occasionally get tired of repeating the same tasks, troubleshooting the same problems and performing the same acrobatics.
So after a second and third try at putting Crux 2.7 on the Pentium, and getting a perfect system … except this time for a lack of any network — I decided to go the short route.
I'll admit that my first stop after Crux was to try the same stunt with Slitaz, console-only. And it worked well except for some reason, it too was having network problems.
I am willing to blame my router at this point, but just for a final troubleshooting effort, I used the Debian netboot CD and got a fully working system this morning.
I even went one step further and got my mysterious RT61-based PCMCIA card to link up nicely, with the firmware-ralink package out of Lenny-non-free installed.
The only other issue I have with using Debian on a Pentium, as a torrent slave and file host, is that rtorrent in Lenny is stuck at version 0.7.9 or something.
That's pretty far back. I don't think that even supports DHT. No matter, a quick surf and I came across this page which described a fairly simple way to bump rtorrent up to 0.8.6.
And with that and mc and htop and screen, along with the required nfs-kernel-server and dropbear packages (openssh-server seems to imply X11 stuff, which I would prefer avoid), the machine is more or less complete.
It's not a picture-perfect replica of the machine I usually configure, and it takes a little longer to boot, but it sure took a lot less time to wrangle. Sometimes that's a bonus. 🙂

The fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar square has been on our radar for a while and I am sure will continue to be so since the British government plans on using it as a compliment to the Turner prize or so by using it as a soapbox to debate and showcase contemporary art.
The current work that is on display at the plinth, Yinka Shonibare's Nelson's Ship in a Bottle is slotted to be taken down in 2012 and the fight to see who gets the spot in time for the Olympics has begun. Here is a quick rundown of the shortlist via UK's The Independent (my money is on Katharina Fritsch) :
Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset A sombre wit underpins the serious nature of work by the Scandanavian couple who have collaborated since they met in 1995. They have made work in memory of gay victims of the Nazi regime and, in 2005, they built a Prada boutique in the middle of the Texan desert. Whatever their proposal for Trafalgar Square, we hope they don't lose their sense of humour.
Mariele Neudecker German born, 45-year-old Neudecker made her name with sculptures of landscapes, placed inside glass vitrines. Self-contained worlds, that come out of the Romantic tradition in art – although her work is anything but traditional. She used the cry of seagulls on London's Millenium bridge in 2008. And she sank a boat and a house underwater that question our relationship with the environment.
Allora & Calzadilla Allora and Calzadilla are an artist couple who live in Puerto Rico. Their work is usually political and they have a strong reputation in the UK. At the Serpentine gallery in 2007 they made a large chamber, like a war bunker, and inside musicians played military music. They work in many mediums, using film, sound, sculpture, performance and photography.
Hew Locke Locke's work explores colonial themes in an exuberant kind of pop art. He has played with ideas about the British royal family. Princess Diana became a voodoo doll and he covered a figure of the Queen Mother with skulls. He critiques the past, looking at how our world interrelates: from African wars to empire, pop culture to Shakespeare.
Katharina Fritsch Like the Surrealists, Fritsch is known for artwork that makes the familiar appear strange and uncanny. Born in Germany, Fritsch has represented her country at the Venice Biennale and had major exhibitions at London museums. Giant rats and monochrome men wearing suits appear in her work, which have popular as well as critical appeal. She is a mature artist and her proposal will be polished and spectacular.
Brian Griffiths An eccentric sense of adventure runs through sculptures by Griffiths. A graduate of Goldsmiths college, the British artist has used old furniture to construct an elaborate wooden gyspy caravan. His work plays with myth as well as history and his sculpture comes from an imaginary world as fantastical as a child's. No doubt, his proposal for the Fourth Plinth will be made from old junk but his idea, we hope, will contain a touch of magic.
- Also Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland (MOCA) has been greenlit to start construction on it's $150-plus million development project in University Circle later this year and be completed in 2012. Read More Here
- We talked a while back about the Guggenheim's Youtube partnership entitled "Play" where artists were invited to submit their videos to possibly be part of a juried exhibition later this year in every one of their museums. Well that jury list has been announced: Takashi Murakami, Ryan McGinley, Douglas Gordon, Marilyn Minter and Shirin Neshat, artists known for their work in a variety of mediums; Stefan Sagmeister, a graphic designer; Laurie Anderson, the performance artist, musician and filmmaker; the music group Animal Collective; and the filmmakers Darren Aronofsky and Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Read More Here
- Sorry but I have a hard time calling something revolutionary or defying categorization when it's been done for over two decades in general and over a decade by Michigan Avenue Ad houses. Its akin to saying an artist doing Matrix style bullet time video leaves you speechless if it was done in 2040. Film is sequential still frames that create motion, find something to write about NPR that is actually Art if you want to be breathless NPR not a music video esque work done in After Effects. It's only slightly annoying when Artists speak of their work as revolutionary, interdisciplinary or an exciting hybrid that redefines a genre since it's hard to promote as a artist but it is greatly annoying when a publication ruberstamps such hyperbole as true. I know it's the NPR blog but….. still. Don't Read More Here

If you've ever wondered what happens when Honda S2000s fall into the wrong hands, see the above video. Three morons took to the busy Turkish streets to film themselves driving their S2000s like idiots. It is equal parts amazing and lucky this video does not end in a serious crash.
According to WorldCarFans.com, one Youtube user has taken license plate captures from the video which can be used to identify the drivers. Hopefully this information finds its way to Turkish Authorities before the next time these asshats decide to treat public roads like a film set.
H/t to Mikeado!

Nearly half of kids between the ages of 12 and 14 who drink get their alcohol for free from their family or at home, according to a new report from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA).
An estimated 709,000 kids in the United States of these ages, which is about 5.9 percent, drank alcohol in the past month, according to the report, which is based on data from 2006 through 2009 collected as part of the National Survey on Drug Abuse and Health.
And 93.4 percent of these teens said they got their alcohol for free the last time they drank, according to the report. In addition to the 44.8 percent of kids who said their free alcohol was from a family member or in their home, 19.6 percent got their free alcohol from another underage person, 13.5 percent got it from an unrelated adult, and 6.8 percent got it from someone else's home.
About 111,000 kids said they got it from a parent or guardian.

More women opting for preventive mastectomy - but should they be?
Rates of women who are opting for preventive mastectomies, such as Angeline Jolie, have increased by an estimated 50 percent in recent years, experts say. But many doctors are puzzled because the operation doesn't carry a 100 percent guarantee, it's major surgery -- and women have other options, from a once-a-day pill to careful monitoring.

The study shows that family members can play an important role in reducing kids' access to alcohol, which could prevent underage drinking and the early onset of the behavioral health problems that may come with it, the researchers said.
"People who begin drinking alcohol before the age of 15 are six times more likely than those who start at age 21 and older to develop alcohol problems," said SAMHSA Administrator Pamela Hyde.
"Parents and other adults need to be aware that providing alcohol to children can expose them to an increased risk for alcohol abuse and set them on a path with increased potential for addiction," Hyde said.
The estimates are based on the responses of more than 44,000 adolescents, the administration said.

Because i work for a hardware distributor i get to see most of the new stuff coming out. The Vandy Vapes MESH RDA is something i have been waiting to see in person and a few days ago i had a client who ordered one and i got to play around with it and i think it's pretty cool!
All of the old timers remember mesh is something we used to use for wicking in the old hybrid mods but now they are being used as a coil. I had the pleasure of seeing one in use and trying it and i was pretty impressed actually. It took under a minute to take a piece of the mesh from the spool (which vandy vapes sells) and install it into the little holes in the rda. You can also use regular coils and insert them into the same place.
I did find the mesh ran pretty warm maybe because of the total surface area of the mesh but regardless i think this is a huge advancement (so far) in the industry. Installation of coils is something i have always hated.. .including making the coils themself. This was pretty darn easy. The flavor was really good as well.
I have not had the chance to use it for a strait week and just saw it for 10 minutes so until i get my hands on one myself i wont know all the little annoyances i experience with most rda's or mods. I think it's certainly a interesting concept so we will see how far it goes i suppose! It does have a BF (bottom feeding) pin in the rda so you can use it for a squonker for all you squonk fans.

'Take One Candle Light a Room' Fails to Really Illuminate
What Susan Straight sees, in finely wrought writing, sears the heart and soul. I respect and admire her work tremendously. Which is why it breaks my heart to say Take One Candle Light a Room doesn't work.
I am sitting at my desk with three Susan Straight books: her 1990 debut, Aquaboogie, which won the Milkweed National Fiction Prize and ranks on my very short "masterpiece" list, 2006's A Million Nightingales, the fictionalized story of a freed Louisiana slave named Manon Baldwin, called Moinette in the book, and 2010's Take One Candle Light a Room, a story about Moinette's many current-day descendants, specifically FX Antoine, and her troubled godson, Victor.
Before discussing Take One Candle Light a Room, some background on Susan Straight is in order. A Caucasian, she married an African-American named Dwayne Sims. The couple, who reside in Riverside, bore three daughters. Though they divorced, Straight remains close both to her ex-husband and his extended family. She has made writing about the black community her life's work, setting her characters in a fictionalized Riverside called Rio Seco. In our incredibly fraught world of political correctness and agonized race relations, it takes tremendous courage for a white writer to write about the black community. Arguably, Straight has "inside" access via her family, but this is no way diminishes her unflinching rendition of what it means, even in our "enlightened" era, to be black in America. Straight writes not as a white woman looking in, but as a black individual looking out. What she sees, in finely wrought writing, sears the heart and soul. I respect and admire her work tremendously.
Which is why it breaks my heart to say Take One Candle Light a Room doesn't work.
Any time a reader opens a novel, he or she must be prepared to suspend disbelief. We turn ourselves over to an author trustingly, hoping our need to be told a story will be satisfied. If we are very lucky, our wish is granted extravagantly, as in Aquaboogie. (If you haven't read Aquaboogie, run to your nearest independent bookshop and buy a copy this instant.) But sometimes a story fails to enrapture us, and our disbelief snaps firmly back into place. No, a little voice whispers, interrupting our reading. Life doesn't work that way. Maybe we start noticing how many plot twists are occurring in a mere 24 hours. Or we become confused by the cast of characters, who outnumber the walk-ons in War and Peace. Who are all these people, and do they really need to be here? Perhaps worst of all is the tale that reaches an ending so unbelievable, so impossibly unrealistic in every way, that the reader tosses up her hands.
In Take One Candle Light a Room we are once again in Rio Seco, in a secluded section called Sarrat. Sarrat is deep in the orange groves, inhabited by the Antoine family and close friends. The tightly knit group of Louisiana Creoles living within Sarrat literally lock their gates against strangers nightly. Outsiders, even African Americans, are not exactly welcome. Neither is leaving this thickly overgrown nest of family.
FX—Fantine Xavaierene Antoine—has done just that. A travel writer, she dashes about the globe, writing copy for upscale magazines. An intrepid traveler, she is unfazed by snow, ice, language barriers. She hides behind a uniform of 20 white shirts, 20 black shirts, jeans, boots, and the ability to pass as any number of ethnicities: Hawaiian, pan-Asian, Hispanic. Lying about her identity is second nature. Her family's incomprehension of her choices, her life, and her efforts to pass pull at her, but are insufficient to keep her home. Nor, to her family's dismay, is she married. At 39, she's unlikely ever to settle down.
FX's identity troubles, set against the inexorable pull of family, are more than sufficient material for a fine novel. But Straight's agenda is larger than passing, taking in the continued mistreatment of and within black society, gang violence, and rape.
Fantine grew up in Sarrat with a legacy of rape. In Sarrat, Louisiana, her ancestral home, a serial rapist attacked three of her mother's best friends. A fourth girl, Anjolie, the most beautiful of all, was kept home by her mother, locked in an armoire. She was untouched but grew up agoraphobic. Fantine's father, Antoine, enraged at the white community's dismissive response to the crimes, smuggled four of the teenaged girls to California, then killed the rapist, Mr. McQuine.
The girls eventually migrated to California's Sarrat, built by Antoine and his lifelong friend, Gustave, both of whom were orphaned by flooding levees as small children. All of the girls married men in this second Sarrat, giving rise to Fantine's dearest friends, including Glorette, daughter of Gustave and Anjolie. Glorette has the kind of beauty that only brings ruin; after giving birth to Victor, she becomes a crack addict, streetwalking to support her habit. She ends up murdered, her body dumped in a shopping cart, her death unsolved. Take One Candle Light a Room opens on the five-year anniversary of her death, as the women of Sarrat cook in preparation for her memorial.
Fantine, meanwhile, has grown and gone, but keeps in close contact with the intellectually gifted Victor. As his godmother, or Marraine, she cultivates his talents, bringing him books, notebooks, postcards printed with images. She encourages him to attend community college, hoping he'll get into USC.
Victor is a sensitive young man who, strangely, is very fond of The Who, The Average White Band, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. More improbably, his troubles begin with winning tickets to a Dave Matthews concert. (I confess my dislike of the Dave Matthews band made this worse for me. This from the woman whose first novel is titled after a song by the mighty Parliament Funkadelic? ) Victor, who has no car, is in bad company—Jazen and Alfonso, children of Sarrat, now grown and up to no good. Alfonso is recently out of prison; now he's dealing crack with Jazen. But he has a car, and Victor needs a ride into Los Angeles to get his Dave Matthews tickets.

UNH and Vermont tie 1-1
UNH Press Release:
Casey DeSmith (Rochester, N.H.) turned aside 30 shots to lift the fifth-ranked University of New Hampshire men's hockey team to Saturday afternoon's 1-1 overtime tie with the University of Vermont at Gutterson Fieldhouse in Hockey East action.
UNH moves to 17-8-5 with a 12-7-4 mark in Hockey East. Vermont is now 10-15-5 overall, 7-11-5 HEA. The Wildcats take over sole possession of first place with 28 points in league play.
In a scoreless first period, Vermont had the better of play outshooting the Wildcats 8-2. UNH had a pair of power plays in the period, but could not register a shot on goal in those extra-skater opportunities.
Vermont broke the scoreless deadlock just 56 seconds into the second period. Jacob Fallon fired a puck from between the circles that beat Casey DeSmith (Rochester, N.H.) high glove side. Chris McCarthy and Kyle Reynolds assisted on the goal. UNH would even things up on the power play at 8:53 as Trevor van Riemsdyk (Middletown, N.J.) fired a shot from the top of the point that hit a Vermont defender on its way into the net. Eric Knodel (West Chester, Pa.) and Grayson Downing (Abbottsford, British Columbia) assisted on the goal. In a fast-paced period, Vermont held a slim 11-8 shot advantage.
In a fast-paced open third period, neither team was able to crack the scoreboard. The Wildcats had numerous chances including a Connor Hardowa (Edmonton, Alberta) shot that clanged the pipe just inside of the 11-minute mark and a grade A bid by Austin Block (Thousands Oak, Calif.) just before time expired in regulation. The Catamounts held a 12-9 shot edge in the period.
The Wildcats controlled play in overtime recording the only three shots on goal during the extra time, but Vermont held a 31-22 shot advantage in the game.
DeSmith made double-digit saves in the second and third periods and moves to 16-6-5 on the season. UVM's Brody Hoffman stopped 21 shots and is now 10-15-5 on the season.
The Wildcats were 1-for-4 on the power play and scored four power play goals during the two-game series. UVM was 0-1 in the extra-man.
UNH, which will play its final four games at home, returns to action next weekend with a two-game series against Massachusetts on March 1-2.

Today, Google honors the life and work of Dr. Maria Montessori. She was an educator, humanitarian, and devout Catholic, who is best known for the philosophy of education that bears her name.
Dr. Montessori was a controversial figure in her time and her philosophy remains somewhat controversial today. Mostly people are just not familiar with Montessori philosophy and often misunderstand what it's all about. Some people believe it is very unorganized. Others think that Montessori is out of date. This is all untrue. A great resource for Dr. Montessori's history can be found on the Montessori Foundation's Website. Below, is a video that tells a lot about Montessori schools as well.
I am particularly fond of this doodle because my own children have benefited from the Montessori approach to education. Montessori schools are a great way for children to explore their world and learn in a more natural and independent way. Hayfield Montessori school's website sums up the Montessori method very well.
Montessori materials incorporate the child's senses in the learning process. Materials in the classroom are for manipulating as we believe a child learns by doing. There is a direct hand to brain connection in the young child that is nurtured in a Montessori environment. Many Montessori materials also incorporate a control of error which enables students to correct their own mistakes without adult intervention.
I encourage everyone, especially those with young children, to take a moment and learn a little more about the life and work of Dr. Montessori. You may find that there is a real special resource to help your child just waiting to be tapped.

On 5 April 2016 the JRC presented the interactive and collaborative online European Energy Efficiency Platform. This beta platform is conceived to fill the gap opened by scattered data and fragmented knowledge resulting from a rapidly growing energy efficiency market. It is expected to be both a one-stop shop for information retrieval and a meeting point for experts to exchange data and reduce redundant activities.
Evaluation of Motivation and Barriers in the European GreenBuilding, GreenLight and Motor Challenge Programmes
With the GreenBuilding, GreenLight and Motor Challenge Programmes the European Commission operates voluntarily commitment schemes with the aim to increase energy efficiency in non-residential buildings, nonresidential lighting and motors used in industrial processes. By the end of 2011 the total of more than 1,000 Partners were registered.

< Features
- 1 Active Directory
Active Directory
Fedora should be able to be used on an Active Directory domain (or other kerberos realms, such as IPA) out of the box. It should be easy to configure domain logins on a Fedora machine, and then it should be intuitive and uneventful to login with those credentials.
This feature will also increase reliability and ease usage for any Kerberos realm, not just Active Directory. We do however target Active Directory as the main use case: it's by far the most widely deployed Kerberos realm and directory.
- Name: Stef Walter
- Email: email@example.com
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 18
- Last updated: 2012-06-28
- Percentage of completion: 60%
realmd packages are available in rawhide, and the control-center support for using it is included in 3.5.4.
Detailed Description
Fedora should work out of the box in an Active Directory environment. Currently Fedora contains packages for many tools to accomplish this, but it takes a lot of pain to get all aspects working correctly. It's also easy to make mistakes that undermine the security of your system.
First of all this feature fixes bugs and tough spots present in kerberos libraries, sssd, authconfig, openldap, samba, winbind and other packages. We also remove configuration headaches. Some examples outlined here, more details available on request:
- Allow configurationless kerberos. Remove /etc/krb5.conf file requirement, and unbreak defaults.
- Remove NTP time syncing requirement for kerberos clients.
- Correctly show kerberos password change policy messages.
- Respect kerberos password policy for kerberos accounts instead of local policy.
- Make SSSD work with Active Directory domains without modifications to those domains.
- Fix authconfig so it doesn't break config files.
- Fix SELinux policies so which prevent this stuff from working out of the box.
- ... and much more
Secondly the GUI will be updated to support kerberos logins better:
- GDM will give hints as to how to log in with domain credentials (once configured).
- Automatically renew tickets when possible and/or reprompt for credentials when they expire.
Thirdly, and equally important, we streamline the enrollment process for joining a machine to an Active Directory domain. It is necessary to enroll a machine in order to perform domain logins securely. In the process we also ease configuration of IPA kerberos domains. In these streamlined setups we auto-discover all necessary configuration parameters; only a domain name is needed.
Gnome Control Center will be updated to allow configuring logins for Active Directory users from the GUI. Firstboot and/or Initial Setup will be modified to allow setup of Active Directory logins. New command line tools will also be available to drive this streamlined enrollment process.
The above streamlined setup is driven by a D-Bus system service called realmd started on demand. This service allows multiple providers (such as winbind or sssd). It is also an upstream project and not just Red Hat specific.
Benefit to Fedora
- Fedora will be simple to use on an Active Directory domain or IPA realm. This will increase its appeal among enterprise admins and users.
- By using SSSD we will have reliable offline usage (eg: laptop) for users logging in with a kerberos login.
- Most of these changes and fixes will increase reliability and ease usage for all kerberos realms, not just Active Directory. We simply target Active Directory as the main use case as it's by far the most widely deployed kerberos server.
- Most current kerberos users have configured pam_krb5, which is trivially hackable by anyone with access to the network. By using SSSD and enrolling the machine correctly, we will increase security for these users.
This is a large change which touches many packages. There are many people on board with this effort and are already working hard to make this stuff happen, most in upstream projects.
- Many many bug fixes (of which many have already been fixed upstream as a result of this effort).
- SSSD will gain support for Active Directory (already in progress).
- Firstboot modifications to integrate realmd and streamlined setup.
- GNOME control-center modifications to integrate use of kerberos and its configuration. (done)
- GDM modifications to integrate use of kerberos accounts.
- Complete work on realmd for streamlined setup (much already done).
- Package realmd (done)
How To Test
To perform testing one will need to have an Active Directory domain or IPA realm accessible to you. You'll need a user account on that domain. To enroll your machine you'll probably need administrative credentials for the domain (or assistance from an administrator of the domain).
It's easy to create an Active Directory domain for your own use in a virtual machine: http://stef.thewalter.net/2012/08/how-to-create-active-directory-domain.html
The goal is for this stuff to work out of the box. Necessary packages should either already be installed, or should be installed for you while enrolling the machine.
Here's what's testable so far:
- Go to the user panel, click on the [+] button underneath the list of users.
- You should see a tab/button called 'Enterprise Logins'.
- Type your Active Directory domain name, and user credentials in the boxes provided.
- If your user does not have access to enroll a machine in the domain, administrative credentials should be prompted for.
- The user should appear in the list of users in the user panel, and should be able to log in.
Command line
- Use the following commands to discover, enroll and unenroll a machine from the domain. These should be usable as a non-admin account, and should prompt for polkit access as necessary:
$ realm discover -v my.domain.example.com $ realm join -v my.domain.example.com $ realm leave -v my.domain.example.com
- The following command lists the discovered/enrolled realms. It also lists the login format for users in a domain/realm.
$ realm list
- Use the following command to see if a domain user is visible:
$ getent passwd 'DOMAIN\User'
At this point the IPA support is still a work in progress, but should be ready shortly.
User Experience
Admins and users will see a simplified experience for configuring kerberos when running Fedora install. Users will see simple options for using domain logins in the control center. Users who have configured kerberos logins will see hints during login for how to use their domain credentials. They will be re-prompted as necessary for expiring credentials.
Stef recently posted a number of screenshots of the new account setup dialogs.
But above all, the goal here is to not have unnecessary "user experience" and to have stuff just work.
There are dependencies in at least the following:
- krb5-libs
- sssd
- samba
- samba-winbind
- gdm
- gnome-control-center
- gnome-session
- firstboot
- authconfig
Because this feature is about integration it touches a large amount of packages. We've been proactive in making sure to work with upstream projects.
New modules that need to be packaged:
Contingency Plan
- The myriad of kerberos related bug fixes stand on their own. And are being merged as completed.
- The GNOME changes will disable themselves at run time should the underlying supporting infrastructure not be ready.
- If SSSD Active Directory changes are not ready in time, realmd can configure Winbind instead.
- Design of the GNOME feature is ongoing and can be seen here, here, and here.
- The GNOME side of this feature is tracked here
- More documentation is forthcoming.
Release Notes
- Documentation for GNOME 3.6 will include notes about this feature when its merged.
- Other release notes will be forthcoming.

Is there anything this guy can't do?
In a late night tweet, James Franco posted a video of himself in a large room painting a picture entitled "James 'The Thinker,'" a parody of the famous French statue.
U.S. & World
Though the video lasts less than a minute, we see Franco thoughtfully mixing paint on his pallet, applying it to the canvas, and taking a moment to admire his creation.
Franco has been very busy of late, what with hosting the Oscars, being nominated for an Oscar himself, having several appearances on "General Hospital," and working on several advanced degrees. The only question Franco leaves us to ponder is this:
Does he ever sleep?

Editors Note: What follows originated in 2006, and is repeated in 2012.
2,996 is a tribute to the victims of 9/11.
On September 11, 2006, 2,996 volunteer bloggers joined together for a tribute to the victims of 9/11. Each person payed tribute to a single victim.We honor them by remembering their lives, and not by remembering their murderers.
So reads the introductory material on the 2996 Web page. I was assigned James Arthur Greenleaf, Jr. I was the 1357th blogger to sign up for the 2,996 Tribute project.
The name of each 9-11 victim was been assigned to a blogger.
This project was a very moving one for me. In searching for information on Jim Greenleaf's life, I was deeply touched by who this young man was.
James Arthur Greenleaf, Jr., age 32, native of Waterford, Conn. Mr. Greenleaf was a foreign exchange trader at Carr Futures and died at the World Trade Center. He was a resident of New York, N.Y. Mr. Greenleaf was a 1991 graduate of Connecticut College, he was the son of Mr. And Mrs. James Greenleaf, Sr., and the former husband of Susan Cascio, a 1992 graduate of Connecticut College.
The following was posted by Mr. Greenleaf's mother on Legacy.com
April 6, 2002
My Dearest Jim,
Almost 7 months have passed and not a day goes by that I don't think about you. Some days I pretend that I just haven't seen you in long time and that you will be visiting soon. I know that it will be a long time till we see each other again, but it does help on the bad days.
Just this week Dad and I received 2 letters from old friends of yours recalling some great times that they spent with you and they wanted us to know what an impact you had on their lives. One letter we received said that she had children of her own and just hoped that some day they might grow up to be the kind of person that she remembers you as being. What a wonderful tribute to the fine man that you were. You touched so many people and I'm sure that you had no idea of how others thought of you.
I know that I kissed you and told you how much I loved you every time I had the opportunity to, but I wanted to say it to you today again.
I love you so much,
Peter, Bryn and I talk about you all the time and remember all the wonderful times we spent together. (Patricia Greenleaf, Waterford, CT)

The James A. Greenleaf, Jr. Memorial Scholarship Fund has been established to honor and remember a dear family member and friend who lost his life as a result of the catastrophe which occurred in New York City in 2001. The fund will be used to provide financial assistance to students attending St. Bernard High School.
Dave McBride also hopes to help others by honoring the memory of his long-time friend with the 5th Annual 5K River Run For The Fund. The race, which takes place this Saturday, May 13th at Ocean Beach Park in New London, is part of the Greenleaf Memorial Foundation, which also incorporates an annual Golf Tournament and a Memorial Dinner. McBride and James Greenleaf were best friends since high school, graduating from St. Bernard in 1987.
Sadly, Greenleaf lost his life because of the terrorist acts that occurred as he was working in New York City on the morning of September 11th, 2001. In a tribute to Greenleaf, his family and friends created the James A. Greenleaf, Jr. Memorial Scholarship Fund, Inc., with proceeds used to award full book scholarships for 8th grade students to attend St. Bernard High School. The organization received approximately 30-40 scholarship applications annually, which require a formal essay and teacher recommendations that are reviewed by the Foundation's Board of Directors. The fund also hopes to increase its scholarship offerings either to St Bernard students or other local students who will be attending college.
Leave a message in honor of James Arthur Greenleaf Jr.
From: Lisa LaGalia Date: 11/19/2004 Message: Hi babe it me. Still not better without you. Can't you take me there where you are. We should be together
From: Maureen Griffin Balsbaugh Date: 08/29/2005 Message: At every one of your events. We know you are there in spirit....laughing.
This comment was left just a few days ago:
Thank you for posting information on Jim Greenleaf. We went to high school together. During the three years, we played football and ran track together. We ate many lunches together.
With my return to the US in 2007, I have been able to attend the annual golf outing twice. The outpouring of help given by friends of Jimmy is very inspiring. His scholarship is helping many children attend St. Bernard H.S.
Thank you for the great site.
PS As an aside, we lost another high school friend that day, Eric Evans. He was in one of the towers when they fell. Both gone but not forgotten.
Jim Greenleaf, rest in peace.

|Une Semaine de Bonté
Prices from £5.85
Spend a surreal week in the company of German artist Max Ernst. Une Semaine de Bonté, a rather unsettling book whose title translates as A Week of Kindness, is a piece of surreal art like no other surreal piece of art and thats saying something.
Created in just three weeks in Italy in 1934 as Ernsts native Germany marched to the thump of the Nazi drum, Une Semaine de Bonté is a very bizarre collection of 182 collages where humanity is mixed with mythology and the animal kingdom. There are ladies with serpent wings and gentlemen with lion heads. Many of the dramatic scenes display death, distress, bondage, nudity and violence all twisted from the expected norms of death, distress, bondage, nudity and violence.
|Une Semaine de Bonté
1963 Edition
Jean Jacques Pauvert, Paris
Une Semaine de Bonté was originally published as a series of five pamphlets with less than 1,000 copies of each printed. Now amazingly collectable, those original pamphlets have four-figure price-tags but Dover Publications has been printing an unabridged republication of the 1934 edition since 1976. New copies of this book, complete with the very informative publishers note explaining the method behind Ernsts apparent madness, can be purchased for less than £15.
Born near Cologne, Ernst is the greatest exponent of the surreal collage. He selected images from existing catalogues and pulp novels, and then turned them into a series of lurid and exotic dreams and fantasies serpents in the living room, aristocrats with the head of a lion, floods inside houses, murderous mutants, and dozens of bared breasts. Perhaps the strongest theme is birds, which fascinated Ernst throughout his career.
Une Semaine de Bonté has seven sections for each day of the week and each one illustrates one of Ernsts seven deadly elements, including water and fire.
The Germans art was vital in the development of the Dada Movement and surrealism in general following the Great War. However, Ernsts devotion to the weird and wonderful didnt fit in with Nazi ideology and the artist, who had fought for Germany in World War I, fled to America before the outbreak of World War II. Along with fellow Europeans Marcel Duchamp and Marc Chagall, he helped develop abstract expressionism while living in the US. Ernsts La Femme 100 Têtes (The Woman With One Hundred Heads) from 1929 is also worth a look for fans of surrealism.

There is no other band in Britain that sounds like These New Puritans. If I had enough time to trawl through the musical backwaters of all the countries on Earth, I think I'd still struggle to find some lost twin.
When interviewers ask the usual questions about musical influences, TNP only seem able to respond with reticence and bewilderment. They don't place any special empahasis on sound as a sensory input. Musical influences are present though, most noticeably in the form of The Fall - not directly... more in the whirring, spindly rhythms that creep like a hamster-eating spider running in a hamster's wheel.
While fellow Southenders The Horrors and The Violets are happy to absorb the musical and sartorial IDs of their influences, TNP take the roaring, clunking, autistic noise that surrounds them during their factory shifts and channel it. They are a rebelling fuse, spokespeople for cold machinery, poster-kind for the singularity and all its pros and cons.
'Elvis' is the EP's A-side. It'd be a turned and stuck-hipped King that sequenced the circuits of this hiss-beaten valving. Sparks fall away from the guitars as they cut against the ceiling of the song like circular saws. 'C16th' is the sound of vital machinery falling apart, the ticking refrain "We were right, we were right, we were right" garbled bitterly with the knowledge that while history has no reward for the dying, the machines Puritans'd programmed would outlast their hot breath and pass said refrain on into objectivity. 'En Papier' is the record's stunning centrepiece; so solid a foundation it's unnerving.

CHESTER, Pa. – Patrick Mullins scored a first half goal, but Notre Dame came back to defeat the Maryland men's soccer team 2-1 in the 2013 College Cup final at PPL Park Sunday night.
The Terrapins (17-4-5) and the Fighting Irish (17-1-6) were even for most of the game, with both teams controlling parts of the 90 minutes. Andrew O'Malley provided the winner for the Irish with a header in the 60th minute
Notre Dame's Harrison Shipp had the best chance of the early going, his right-footed effort knocked away by an outstretched Zack Steffen.
The Terps opened the scoring in the 35th minute. Tsubasa Endoh sent in a dangerous ball that Alex Shinsky blasted into an Irish player on the line. Mullins gathered the rebound and finished with a left-footed rocket for his 19th goal of the season.
The Irish answered through Leon Brown in the 40th minute. Nick Besler flicked on a long throw near that box that Brown was able to control and slip past Steffen from a tight angle.
Alex Shinsky had a golden chance to give the Terps back the lead with four minutes remaining in the half, but Irish keeper Patrick Wall saved his close range header.
After a fairly uneventful start to the second half, O'Malley struck for the Notre Dame in the 60th minute. Shipp lofted in a cross from the left wing that the Irish defender was able to head past Steffen.
The Terrapins pushed hard for the remaining 30 minutes, but were unable to come up with an equalizer. Mullins had a free kick from just outside the box in the late going, but the senior blasted the ball wide.
Mullins capped his sensational senior campaign with 19 goals and 46 points – both tied for the fifth-highest single season marks in Maryland history. He concludes his illustrious career with 47 goals and 119 points, which rank second in Terrapin history.
Maryland advanced to its nation-best 13th NCAA round-of-16 in 2013 and captured the ACC regular season and tournament titles for the second consecutive season.
Mullins, Steffen and Tsubasa Endoh were all named to the College Cup All-Tournament Team and Steffen was recognized as the tournament's Most Outstanding Defensive Player.
