Jennifer Elowitch has been playing classical music all her life. She would like to continue doing so.
The key to ensuring that happens is attracting new fans.
"Classical music is not going to keep thriving if it's only formal tuxedos and 'Sit here and shut up and let us play for you,' " said Elowitch, a violin player and artistic director of the Portland Chamber Music Festival. "We have to adapt. One way to do that is to play in spaces that are not traditional spaces, where people don't have to ask what to wear and when to clap."
That will happen next week, when the chamber festival hosts a casual concert at Space Gallery in Portland. The program, "Handshakes, Songs and Dances," features contemporary music and a lineup of performers that includes Charles Dimmick, concertmaster for the Portland Symphony Orchestra.
The concert, set for 8 p.m. May 15, marks the fourth time the chamber festival has collaborated with Space. Elowitch loves playing in the downtown gallery because the atmosphere is low key.
People are not expected to dress up, and no one cares if someone claps at the "wrong" time.
There is no wrong time at these shows, Elowitch said, noting that the sound of bottles clinking is part of the atmosphere. Cocktail hour begins at 7 p.m.
"It's a step toward chilling out," she said. "I want people to know it's still classical music and we have a good time. Those are not exclusive."
In addition to Dimmick and Elowitch on violin, the performers include cellist Jennifer Lucht, a Boston Pops colleague of Elowitch's, and violist Ralph Farris, a founding member of the New York-based quartet Ethel. Farris is a fill-in. The musician originally hired to play viola had to cancel, so Elowitch tapped Farris.
They played in a youth orchestra together, and reconnected when Ethel came to town for a Portland Ovations concert.
They will perform three string quartets. First up is "Ramshackle Songs" by Rome Prize winner Dan Visconti. He wrote the piece in 2009, and was inspired by Tin Pan Alley with hints of Gershwin and Berlin.
Scott Ordway, a visiting composer at Bates College in Lewiston, wrote "Handshakes" in 2010 as an homage to famous composers. It's a series of micro-works. Ordway will talk about his music before the performance.
Closing out the program is John Adams' "John's Book of Alleged Dances," which includes prepared piano parts that will be looped on CD.
The spring concert is a prelude to the summer festival, set for Aug. 14-23 at Abromson Center at the University of Southern Maine, Portland.

Oral statements at CSW62 may be delivered by a limited number of NGOs in consultative status with ECOSOC. Preference is given to NGOs speaking about the priority theme or review theme, on behalf of groups of organizations, caucuses, or coalitions.
Today, 21 March SI Advocacy Manager, Caroline Mulligan read the Oral Statement on behalf of Soroptimist International.
Soroptimist International Oral Statement 21 March 2018
Soroptimist International advocates education as a powerful driver of sustainable development and a critical tool for empowering individuals and their communities, especially in rural areas. When implementing the sustainable development goals, a unified and integrated approach is required due to the cross-cutting nature of the goals, especially in relation to gender equality.
Rural women and girls are often unable to access education due to an array of underlying root causes, which must be tackled through clear policies and commitments from government institutions, working hand in hand with CSO/ NGOs, who, are often able to provide situation-specific educational interventions in challenging and remote situations.

I am excited to share with you my review of Centering Prayer and Inner Awakening by Cynthia Bourgeault.
Modern day mystic, Episcopal priest, writer, and internationally known retreat leader, Cynthia Bourgeault divides her time between solitude at her seaside hermitage in Maine, and a demanding schedule traveling globally to teach and spread the recovery of the Christian contemplative and Wisdom path.
this post may contain affiliate links
She has been a long-time advocate of the meditative practice of Centering Prayer and has worked closely with fellow teachers and colleagues including Thomas Keating, Bruno Barnhart, and Richard Rohr. Cynthia has actively participated in numerous inter-spiritual dialogues and events with luminaries and leaders such as A.H. Almaas, Kabir Helminski, Swami Atmarupananda, and Rami Shapiro.
Learn more about Cynthia at The Contemplative Society
This was the first book on Centering Prayer that I read as I began this transforming practice in June of 2014. I recently took a peek back into this wonderful book and wish to share with you six key points.
"As we move toward center, our own being and the divine being become more and more mysteriously interwoven."
This is what happens when we sit in silence and open to the presence of God. We become one with God. We let God pray in us. We arise from our sits ready to act on the prayers God prayed in us. When we take our second sit, we begin this beautiful cycle again: sit in silence, God prays in us, arise from our sit, act on God's prayers in us.
See In The Dark
"In fact, you could say that learning to shift to seeing with your spiritual awareness is a lot like learning to see in the dark."
Centering prayer is a silent sit in faith. We let go of all thoughts, emotions and physical sensations and open to God. We trust God. We don't know what will happen. We sit and we trust that God's inner actions are best. We learn to see in the dark.
Place We Come From
"But as the practice becomes more and more established in you so that this inner sanctuary begins to flow out into your life, it becomes more and more a place you come from."
After each morning sit I am ready for the day! I am calm and energized. I am excited for what the day will bring. I seem to know what tasks that God wishes for me to accomplish today.
My second sit is usually in mid afternoon. My second sit refills my reservoir. It helps me to refocus and finish my day.
I need both sits!
Die To Self
"Dying to self means being willing to let go of what I want (or think I want) in order to create space for God to direct, lead, and guide me into a truer way of being."
This is what we do during our silent sits. When we let go we create this most important space. My best actions spawn when I die to self during my silent sit.
Self Empty
"Paul sees that self-emptying is the touchstone, the core reality underlying every moment of Jesus' human journey. Self-emptying is what first brings him into human form, and self-emptying is what leads him out, returning him to the realm of dominion and glory."
When we sit in silence we experience the death, passion and resurrection of Jesus. It is a beautiful mystery that happens each time we sit with Jesus. To be honest, I am not completely sure what this means but as my silent sits continue more and more of this mystery is revealed to me.
Next Steps
"But the promise contemplative prayer makes is that if you show up, things will start to change."
The fruits of Centering Prayer are unique to the practitioner. We do not enter Centering Prayer for these fruits. They are freely given to us by a most gracious God. I have noticed I am more calm and confident. I slow down and listen to others. I am filled with energy and excited to live my life.
I encourage you to check out Centering Prayer and Inner Awakening. I also reviewed her newest book, The Heart of Centering Prayer: Nondual Christianity in Theory and Practice. I hope you enjoy my review.

One on One Coaching with Rich
Does this sound like you?
"I am bored with my life?"
"I am not doing the things that I want to do in all areas of my life:"
-career, personal, family, community.
I feel unfulfilled, like I am just going through the motions everyday.
I have dreams and goals, but I am afraid to show up and take action on them.
I don't want years to pass and be disappointed when I look back on my life.
Integrating Centering Prayer practice with your everyday life addresses all of these thoughts.
Do you want to obtain the freedom to become your true self, the person I'm created to be?
How do I create a long lasting and sustainable centering prayer practice?
I am currently taking on clients for Centering Prayer One on One Coaching sessions.
I will work with you to setup a program designed to meet your specific needs.
Try Audible and Get Two Free Audiobooks – This is a great way to listen to books with your cell phone while you drive, walk or relax at home. I frequently listen in my car during my commute to and from work. I'm a proud affiliate.
David Frenette's book The Path of Centering Prayer re-energized the Centering Prayer tradition with its fresh insights and teachings. This companion audio program—created to be equally rewarding as a stand-alone guide—gives listeners an immersive resource to learn contemplative prayer, step by step and in the moment. With clarity and compassionate presence, Frenette explains the essential principles of this contemplative practice for both new and seasoned practitioners, and then guides us experientially through core prayers and meditations.
Themes in the Gospel of John by N. T. Wright: The course approaches the Gospel of John in a way that looks at seven key themes. These themes bind the Fourth Gospel together in a manner that allows us to see this 'new way of living' as possible for followers of King Jesus. In so doing, we then apply these themes to the current era in order to ask ourselves questions about how we are putting them into practice. In a way, this is the story of how to live out being the presence of God on earth through the indwelling of God's spirit.
Prepare to be immersed in the 1st Century A.D. context of the life, work, teachings, and actions of Jesus. Check out Simply Jesus by N. T. Wright. It is based on his book Simply Jesus. Enjoy an article I wrote about one of the lectures on the Beatitudes.
This course is a short course based on Prof. N.T. Wright's latest book, Simply Good News. Tom Wright will guide you through the chapters of his book through videos that suggest what some of the main points are. You will instantly get into the heart of the idea of 'good news' as it was understood by the 1st Century writers of the New Testament. You will be brought into their world in order to make more sense of what 'good news' means in our world.
Christian Prayer Methods: Prayer is a core Christian practice, but for many, this means "saying prayers" or asking God for various favors. In this course, we will review a variety of methods of prayer that have been used for centuries in Christianity. Whether you're a beginner who is just learning how to pray, or a more mature Christian who has been at it awhile, this course will offer specific guidance, encouragement and support for practicing several time-tested methods of prayer.
The Way of the Wisdom Jesus: Going Beyond the Mind to the Heart of His Teaching – If you put aside what you think you know about Jesus and approach the Gospels as though for the first time, something remarkable happens: Jesus emerges as a teacher of the transformation of consciousness. In this online course, Episcopal priest, teacher, and retreat and conference leader Cynthia Bourgeault serves as a masterful guide to Jesus's vision and to the traditional contemplative practices you can use to experience the heart of his teaching for yourself. It is based upon her book, The Wisdom Jesus: Transforming Heart and Mind – a New Perspective on Christ and His Message .
This new course by Contemplative Light is currently 1/3 off!
Living Sacraments: The Christian Mystics & The Inner Journey to God – How might your life change if you were steeped more deeply in the wisdom of the Christian Mystics?

He actually won a race recently, he's now a sitting state senator in Illinois and now he wants to be a US Senator. While I'm not sure he's a shoo-in he may well be a better candidate than many other's who have ran against long-time US Senator Dick Durbin in recent years.
BTW, I forgot to note earlier this year he was in charge of a push to oust a state party chairman for the GOP. While ultimately he appeared to back off the state GOP has a new chairman anyway and this was to enforce adhearance to the state GOP platform. All the same this state now has gay marriage anyway and it took a few Republican votes to get there as well.

President's Perspective
The Mondragon Experience - Part Two
"Progress is not acquiring more, but being more, acting better, giving more of oneself" - Don Jose Maria Arizmendiarrieta, Mondragon Founder
In Part I, I recounted my experience in Arrasate-Mondragon in Basque County, Spain with a delegation of labor and community leaders. We spent a week as MIT Fellows exploring worker-owned cooperatives as an alternative model of worker democracy. Last month I highlighted several of the important operating principles—inter-cooperation, wage solidarity, transparency, confidence, among others—and pondered its applicability to addressing poverty in America. Part II of the Mondragon reflections goes beyond the power of the cooperative enterprise and focuses more on the underlying social and cultural values that, I suggest, is an unstated but critical part of Mondragon's economic success.
If the Mondragon story is any example, our relationship to capital and work is only a part of a high road economy. It is not just about high wage jobs. Green jobs and concerns about how to share its economic outputs must entail a broader set of outcome measures. It is also about our relationship to one another, family, community and nature. I learned so much more that cooperative economics on my learning journey throughout the Basque country. Among the profound observations were:
- The unspeakable and unbelievable natural beauty of lakes, rivers, valleys, and mountains as vibrant backdrops to a more simple and holistic lifestyle.
- A strong cultural identity and pride, and a history of independence unbroken by wars, conquest, and attempts at cultural imperialism by Romans, Moors, Spaniards and so many others.
- An amazing commitment to family with public expressions of inter-generational care and love.
- A vibrant community life– every day, everywhere the streets were alive with dancing, eating, playing, talking and just being.
- An enlightened energy consciousness, including demand response energy systems in every building, coupled with renewable energy sources. That the lack of residential air conditioning facilitated, an active community/street life, especially on hot days.
None of these social, cultural, environmental or community factors were discussed as part of the Mondragon Cooperative Program. But, they were obvious to even the most casual observer. It is all part and partial of the Mondragon/Basque Country experience. Worker-owned cooperatives without these quality of life elements would be less meaningful. Or put another way, it is, perhaps, these factors that make worker-owned cooperatives as powerful as they are. It is a different lifestyle; one that defines what it is to be in the Basque Experience. How people live – cooperatively, with trust and confidence and respect for nature – is an extension of their natural course of being.
And so while some of us are in the collective struggle to define new strategies to build community wealth, let's not forget to struggle to rebuild the essential social, cultural and environmental supports to make it work, and apply it across a more highly diverse American culture. New statistics show US residents residents with high levels of life stress, family disintegration, public health challenges, and disconnect from nature. Is it a wonder that the New Economics Foundation's Happy Planet 2012 Index ranks the US 105out of 151 countries? This ranking isbased on" how many long, happy and sustainable lives they provide for the people that live in them per unit of environmental output.
As we build out our clean economy program, when do we start that conversation and how do we begin to measure these social, environmental and community values, and to take action? I am pleased that our Emerald Cities family has taken on the challenge of building a new organizational rubric and metrics that push on the multi-dimensionality of our vision of a high road economy that balances environment, community, and equity. The Basque region seems to have figured out the full package.

Going to the gym is a relatively new activity for me and it has taken a lot of getting used to and more prep work than I thought. After going for over two months and after lots of trial and error I think I have managed to get myself into enough of a routine that I am not forgetting things on either end at the end or before my workouts. I have come up with what I need in my gym bag to keep me sane, a mom's gym essentials list if you will and I am happy to be sharing it with you now!
Simple Bag
You always have to think about what to put all your stuff into. You want something big enough to hold everything you need but small enough that you aren't lugging around a TON of stuff. You want just enough and you want it to be easy to carry if you want to take this same bag on a hike instead of to the gym. That is why I went with a simple tiny hiking bag. It is big enough for all the things I need plus a few things I don't. I can wear it on my back so I am left hand free if I want and it isn't so big that is covers my whole back and makes me too hot. It is the perfect balance bag for any activity outside of the water.
Great Water Bottle
For me nothing is worse during a workout than your water getting warm inside your water bottle. I just can't have this happen to me and every time it has it has made me painfully aware that I can only rely one of my bottles: My Swell and swell knock offs. These little bottles always keep my water ice cold for as long as I need it and I can't seem to leave the house without it on this particularly hot days. Staying hydrated is super important when you are like me and probably spend more time drinking coffee than H2O on a good day. So if it is a challenge for you too make sure you are getting a water bottle that will help you drink more water whether its one with a flavor diffuse in it or just one that can keep your water ice cold like me – just make sure it is perfect for you.
Hand Sanitizer/Lotion
Regardless of how well things are cleaned or how well you wash up after a work out I always get dry hands that I feel aren't that amazing after touching all the knobs I have to turn before I can leave my gym. Thankfully I found a little secret weapon that doesn't dry out my hands and in fact actually leaves them feeling soft and amazing. My little hand sanitizer lotions from Chatters. It may be a silly thing but nothing is more distracting or irritating that dirty dry hands and keeping my cashmere or citrus scented buddies on hand makes me feel a little more at ease. Plus smelling a little better after a good workout.
Hair Ties and Lots Of Them
My hair is a wild and crazy monster all on its own making itself appear more like a mane than anything. Which makes it the most unfriendly hair for working out, no matter what I want I need to have my hair tied up and back the best that I can manage. Of course not many hair ties can survive this experience and I always found myself hitting the dollar store multiple times a month to stock up on more. That is until I found these amazing hair ties from my buddies at Chatters. They are perfect for keeping my hair in place and they never break when I am trying to put my hair up, they are even easy to take out too which usually comes with a little pain and a few missing hair pieces with regular ties.
Good Music
Sometimes my gym is the worst when it comes to music and that means I need to make sure I have some of my own. Thankfully all I need is my phone and a mini speaker if I am going with friends to help get the mood going. Having great songs that keep up with my rhythm is a huge thing for me, it can be the reason I am loving a workout and hating it. Thankfully, after going for a while, I have created the perfect list for myself and you can too with a little help and your phone. With this make sure you have a great Bluetooth speaker that is super compact and a great set of headphones in case you are sharing your gym space.
Workout Gloves
I didn't think I was ever going to be one of those people who would want and NEED a pair of workout gloves. Yet here we are. My workout gloves are the reason I can touch any machine at the gym. The sensation of sweat on all the handles bothers me a lot and having the gloves makes me more comfortable less gross. My gloves also have a bit of wrist support which is important for me and makes lifting any weights a lot easier on my one wrist.
Those are just a few of this mom's gym essentials, tell me what do you bring with you to the gym?

Language Teaching at Different Departments
Language teaching at different departments is defined by the basic goal to educate specialists that can effectively
• use job-related sources in foreign languages both to get a particular job done and enhance their overall knowledge and increase their competitiveness
• work with foreigners both in and outside Russia, use the English language as a professional communicative tool
• speak freely and fluently in everyday situations
Therefore, we can see that linguistic training of a University graduate combines professionally oriented linguistic competency and broader communicative ability enhanced with cultural and sociolinguistic elements.
The goals listed above have a direct bearing on the system of methodological models and textbooks for all levels and majors. All freshmen get tested on linguistic competency and assigned to a specific group according to the results. Whenever possible, the Department also takes in consideration the student's personal creative preferences as well as personal compatibility. This approach is conducive to creative and friendly classroom atmosphere, fair grades and quick conflict resolution.
The University often invites English-speaking specialists to read lectures, conduct seminars, round tables, classes (whole or shared with RSUH professors), and take part in various cultural activities.

Easter Sunday saw the culmination of a year of hard work with the rededication of First Lisburn Presbyterian Church.
The church has undergone a massive refurbishment over the past year, with a new platform, pews, a refurbished organ and even a new coffee dock at the entrance.
On Easter Sunday evening the congregation welcomed the Moderator of the Presbyterian Church, Dr Michael Barry, and his wife Esther, to rededicate the church.
The special service also included the singing of a specially written anthem by composer Tim Knight. 'I Was Glad' was sung by the gathered choirs, including members of First Lisburn, Railway Street, St Patrick's, St Mark's and All Souls, under the baton of Director of Music Tom Whyte.
The Neuschel Brass Quintette played during the service, which was also attended by Minister Emeritus Dr Gordon Gray.
At the close of the service Clerk of Session Perry Reid shared the 325 year history of First Lisburn and expressed the appreciation of the congregation towards minister Rev John Brackenridge, who has driven forward the refurbishment project.

The Problem with Parking
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
As most students and staff of Kelly Walsh know, the parking at the school is a painful daily obstacle. Most students have to decide whether they will risk being tardy to class, due to searching for a spot in the parking lot, or have to endure a lengthy walk to school after parking in the neighborhoods. This frustrating situation leaves students and staff alike wondering, why is this not being fixed? Thankfully our very own Duane Reimer, a Kelly Walsh staff member, holds many answers regarding the parking lots.
Reimer explains that the amount of parking spots is in fact not decided by the school itself. The state representatives decided that the Natrona County School District would be allowed 4,000 parking spots to be dispersed across each high school in the district. Although this seems to be a large number, these parking spots are to be used by staff and students. The major problem with these allotted parking spots was that there was not a certain amount granted to each school based off of amount of students, but rather the school board decided how many they believed each school should receive. The board came to an agreement that despite Kelly Walsh's approximate 1,800 students, compared to Natrona County's approximate 1,650 students, Natrona should be given more parking spots for being "historically larger" in class size.
There are around 2,000 teachers, students, and visitors entering Kelly Walsh daily, yet only 440 current parking spots. An additional parking lot is being built on the North side of the school, but this will only add 200 spots bringing the total to 640 spots. The parking may never be truly adequate for the size of Kelly Walsh High School, and sadly there is no simple answer as to how this can be fixed. If students and staff come together there may be a way to petition for more parking spots at the school. If students are interested in fighting for better parking, they should speak to school administrators about how they could possibly help appeal to the school board to improve the situation for all drivers.

I decided to do a photo shoot with my puppies. And I'm pretty sure they did not enjoy it near as much as I did haha.
Fall is absolutely my most favorite time of year. It means pumpkins, orange everything, pumpkin pie spice, pumpkin Frappuccinos and cappuccinos, wonderful smells of caramel, and getting out your warm fall clothes. Life couldn't get any better than that.
Well we went to a friends house the other night for dinner. Everyone was supposed to bring their favorite type of lasagna. Since lasagna is one of my foods I don't care for at all, I decided to make a dessert Pumpkin Pie Lasagna. Let me tell you what, it was AMAZING!! Here's the recipe, you must try it.

Experts say it's too early to know the full impact of BC's recent tax on foreign homebuyers in Metro Vancouver, but one forthcoming figure could provide a clue.
"I think what may grab the market's attention will be again on the sales side," Robert Hogue, a senior economist with RBC, tells BuzzBuzzNews.
"But certainly I will look very closely at the supply side, the listings side," he continues, awaiting the release of August's resale housing market figures from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV), expected early September.
On August 2nd, the BC government began charging foreign nationals and foreign corporations a 15 per cent property transfer tax on residential real estate purchases.
In the days immediately following, West Vancouver home sales have plummeted, according to one realtor's analysis of MLS numbers, Global News reports.
Just three homes changed hands in West Vancouver from August 1st to the 14th. That's a steep drop from the 52 transactions recorded over that period a year ago and the bearish finance blog Zero Hedge took this as a sign that "the Vancouver housing bubble had popped."
But Andy Yan, Simon Fraser University's acting director for its City Program, says more time is needed to gauge the implications of the tax on local real estate.
"It's really hard to say if it's just cooling off," he tells Global. "It could be that everybody who could or would buy at those really high prices a couple months ago are now already in, and now we just really see how the market is retracting itself," he adds.
RBC's Hogue isn't sure a "significant" drop in sales to foreign nationals would be enough to cool Vancouver's market overall. "The big question to me… has to do with the supply side," he says.
Hogue says listings are an important indicator of the impact this new tax is having on local real estate partly because an increase in resale properties on the market may mean investors are looking to offload assets.
"If [supply] remains quite stable, I think the odds of outright price declines are low," he says.
The number of new listings in Vancouver rose 2.5 per cent in July compared to activity recorded during the same month last year, according to REBGV's latest figures.
"Now, if we see… more listings showing up on the market, then we may see price declines showing up much quicker than we otherwise would anticipate," Hogue explains.
Graphic: REBGV
In recent months Vancouver's sales-to-active listings ratio has been falling, hitting 38.6 per cent in July, generally among the slowest months for real estate activity in the year.
The ratio is calculated by dividing sales by active listings. REBGV says the ratio is "a measure of balance between supply and demand in the housing market."
While the ratio is wilting, it still has a ways to go before the market favours buyers, REBGV suggests. "Generally, analysts say that downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below the 12 per cent mark," the board said in its July report.
The increase in year-over-year July listings was the result of fear rather than anything else, says Morgan Browne, a partner at Oakwyn Realty Vancouver.
"It's definitely safe to say when that foreign tax came out there was a pressure on listings, because I think the sellers are either misinformed or don't have the education behind it," she tells BuzzBuzzNews.
"Because the media has kind of said, 'Okay, everyone that's purchasing is really a foreign buyer,' it was a little bit of a pressure for a majority of people dealing in July and moving into August," she adds.
Browne says the biggest impact the tax is having has been on listings.
"It's just because sellers are really in the mindset that this is the end of the high — it's got to end sometime," the real estate agent says.
Like Hogue, BMO Senior Economist Robert Kavcic will also be taking note of where listings stand next month. "We always do," he says in an interview with BuzzBuzzNews.
"What's interesting is that the market balance has softened a bit just in the five or six months leading up to the tax," he adds, noting sales have been declining and, also like Hogue, he observes listings are on the rise.
"We went from an environment where literally almost every new listing was getting absorbed within the month to now something that's still pretty tight but a lot closer to what is typical for the city — and that was before the tax took hold," he says.
"Depending on what kind of impact that has, we could see the pace of price growth in some markets soften quite a bit," Kavcic adds.
However, falling home prices aren't something Kavcic expects, even if the provincial government's real estate tax does manage to quell foreign-buyer activity.
In July, the benchmark price of a Metro Vancouver home was $930,400, up 32.6 per cent from a year ago.
Such annual gains are unsustainable, Kavcic says, but he's calling for price "deceleration" rather than declines at the moment.
In a time of low interest rates, income growth around three-to-four per cent and strong demographic and supply fundamentals, Kavcic says price growth of "something close to 10 per cent year-over-year" could be supported.
"It's pretty tough to say, it's pretty tough to put a precise number on it," he admits of what the post-tax market will look like.
"Certainly you can't have prices growing at 30 per cent year-over-year forever."

It does come wioth a lifetime leak warranty, but I don't have a lot of confidence in the first install.
They did a great job fitting it up and applying the sealant between the windshield and the gasket, but that was where they finished. No sealant between the gasket and the windshield frame.
They claim the gasket will hold the water out. Every publication I have read on line as well as the Corvette Assembly Manual shows sealant in both places. In fact, it shows a bedding compound between the gasket and the windshield frame and a glass sealer between the gasket and the glass. The most stated bedding compound is 3M Bedding & Glazing Compound #08509 and the glass sealant is 3M Butyl Rubber Sealant #777.
We will see, but if it leaks, they will be back at their expense.

Leon Bailey confident Bayer Leverkusen can beat Schalke after Hamburg victory
Leon Bailey is optimistic Bayer Leverkusen can beat fellow UEFA Champions League aspirants Schalke on Sunday after scoring his ninth league goal of the season in Die Werkself's 2-1 triumph at Hamburg on Matchday 23.
The in-form Jamaican helped Heiko Herrlich's side return to winning ways against the Red Shorts following the 2-0 home defeat to Hertha Berlin last weekend, opening the scoring with an opportunistic strike five minutes before the break.
Herrlich's charges face another stern test of their top-four credentials against the Royal Blues, but Bailey is confident his side can claim another valuable win against Domenico Tedesco's troops.
"It's a crucial game," he said. "I have full confidence in the team, though. We have quality in abundance, everyone fights for each other and the fans are behind us. I know we can keep this run going."
Watch: Bailey: "We're grateful for the win"
Bailey has developed a keen eye for the spectacular this term, his remarkable back-heel against Hoffenheim and sensational long-range drive against Mainz two of the most recent instalments in a growing portfolio of stunning goals.
The 20-year-old's opener against HSV, however, owed more to the Jamaican's exceptional awareness than his preternatural ability to manipulate the ball. Capitalising on a moment of hesitation by defender Douglas Santos, Bailey managed to dispossess the Brazilian full-back inside the area before stroking the ball into the net from close range.
"I just anticipated the situation really well," Bailey explained. "I saw that he wasn't able to get the ball under control right away, so I ran towards him and just nicked it off him. All I had to do then was slide the ball home."
Sunday's clash with Schalke is the first of a tough run of fixtures for Leverkusen, with Herrlich's charges facing a trip to Wolfsburg before games against fierce local rivals Borussia Mönchengladbach (home) and Cologne (away), but Bailey feels the victory at Hamburg stands them in good stead for the challenges ahead.
"It was extremely important to get the three points, particularly with such difficult games coming up," he said. "It's important that we keep our eye on the ball now. We need to stay calm, keep working hard and continue to pick up points."

Post-response: Setting limits to the poetry lesson

While students of English are required to engage with texts from a variety of theoretical perspectives, these positions are often refracted through a personal-ethical paradigm which uses the text as a surface on which students' moral selves can be displayed for the corrective gaze of the teacher. A model of reading as productive practice, on the other hand, suggests that there is no innate reason for a text (poetic or otherwise) to be read in this way. In this paper the author offers an alternative mode of study, drawing on historical- philological practice, which allows students to approach poetry from a perspective that brackets the notion of the personal response

Canal takes soccer rights issue to high court
EmptyPARIS -- French pay TV group Canal Plus has appealed to France's high court, the Tribunal de Grande Instance, to halt bidding on the rights to broadcast professional soccer league games until a decision has been made regarding protocol for the distribution of those rights at a scheduled Feb. 19 hearing.
In order to force its fusion with rival pay TV network TPS back in 2004, Canal Plus paid $2.6 billion for four soccer league packages. The French league now wants an even bigger paycheck and has split the 2008-2012 soccer seasons into 12 packages, instead of the four sold in 2004, in an effort to attract a larger number of broadcasters and thus, more money for its images.
The TGI will decide at a hearing next Wednesday whether or not bidding will stop until the court makes its decision on Feb. 19.
League reps are currently accepting bids until Jan. 22 and plan to make a decision on broadcasting rights Jan. 31, two weeks before the scheduled hearing.
However, "the Canal Plus group considers that the bidding cannot be conducted serenely while the judgement has yet to be made," Canal Plus said in a statement, adding, "Taking account of the importance of the stakes for all of the bidding candidates, the Canal Plus group is forced to ask the TGI to suspend bidding until the final judgement is made."
A second trial is underway at France's State Council, which will decide Friday if Canal Plus can indeed write off a controversial rule set by the country's pro soccer league, the LFP, which gives the league the right to produce its own images of soccer games.
Canal Plus wants to continue to film the matches themselves rather than purchasing an pre-filmed package.

This past weekend was my first time in Hong Kong. Wow. To me it seems like Manhattan — even more people on the streets than Shanghai. Everyone young. Everyone Asian. Everyone sheik [except me].
Well I was in Hong Kong for Apple's Education Leadership Summit. Apple brought together some of the best and brightest teachers from all over the world to share best practices in K-12 education. I was amazed listening to the trends and observations about today's youth — they are described as "digital natives" (having been born into the internet age) while my own generation are called "digital immigrants". And I agree.Think about it: immigrants are uncomfortable in their new, strange culture. But natives are totally comfortable, because they were born into this new techno-culture. My friends who are my age think I'm a technophile, but I can see that Michael (my son) is the real technophile!We have entered an age where common teaching methods are outdated and counterproductive because the learning context has changed. The learning context was books, newspapers, 30-channel TV, pen-and-paper. The new learning context is e-books, RSS-news, youTube, and weblogs. People are not learning and communicating the same way they did 30 years ago!At this conference, a key take-away for me is if I'm going to be relevant to the young people who now outnumber me in this new world (including my own kids) I must give up the idea of becoming a "teacher," instead I must try to see what they see and learn alongside them. Only then I may have an opportunity introduce some wisdom from the past.

Superannuation and the 2015 Budget: Why no news is good news
The second Budget for the Abbott government was handed down on Tuesday night. Many have acknowledged it to be a 'self-preserving' budget for this government, which was much more subdued compared to previous years. It has been geared to transition the economy from mining towards small business.
To summarise, the 2015 budget deficit is $35.1 billion, well below market expectations of $41 billion. Unemployment peaked at 6.5%, with inflation at 2.5%, which expected to stay steady.
In terms of superannuation reform, this budget had no major changes. No news is good news, as they say.
Small changes include:
- Supervisory levies will be increased from July
2015 to fully recover the cost of superannuation activities undertaken by the
Tax Office and the Department of Human Services.
- Easier access to super early as a result of a
terminal illness diagnosis – the life expectancy requirements will be extended
from 12 months to 24 months for eligibility.
Since 2007 superannuation funds have had the ability to borrow money to invest. There was some speculation that this would be revoked in the lead up to the Budget as a result of the Murray Financial System Inquiry released last December. However, no announcements were made in relation to this at all.
There were a few changes relating to retirees, which centred mainly on eligibility for the Age Pension. These involve adjustments to thresholds for assets tests and the taper rate.
From 1 January 2017, the Age Pension assets test threshold for a single homeowner will be increased from $202,000 to $250,000 and from $286,500 to $375,000 for a homeowner couple. For non-homeowners, the assets test threshold will be $450,000 (single) and $575,000 (couple). However, although this sounds like good news, the taper rate at which the Age Pension begins to phase out will be increased from $1.50 of pension per fortnight to $3.00 of pension for each of $1,000 of assets of the thresholds. These measures will allow those with more 'modest' assets to have an increase in their fortnightly pension, but also significantly reduces the maximum value of assets that can be held in order to qualify. For those wealthier retirees who will no longer qualify as a result of these changes, they will continue to be eligible for the Commonwealth Seniors Health Care card.
In conclusion, similar to last year, with the cost of healthcare and the Age Pension increasing in coming years I do understand the need to maintaining a sustainable pension and social security system. Although this budget is more subdued, these measures will at least continue to address that. Additionally, I can only be happy with the government maintaining the promise that there would be no further changes to superannuation while they remain in office, which will help retain confidence in the system (and makes my job a little easier!).

Laissez-faire catering chef Clinton Brown shares the modern rules of foodservice.
1. Environmental sustainability
Organic just isn't good enough. Food has to be locally grown, meat and seafood locally sourced. And at Laissez-faire, we have started to adapt our recipes to 'nose-to-tail/root-to-stalk cooking'. This has reduced our food waste by using the entire animal or plant. Today's consumers want to know where their food comes from, and they are willing to pay a little more if the food has been sustainably sourced.
2. Health and nutrition
This has been a trend over the last five years but it is here to stay. With smartphones within arm's reach, consumers know more about nutrition than ever before. Using Smart Phone apps for tracking nutritional intake not only accommodates the busy lifestyles of consumers but will continue to be popular in 2014. People can use their smartphones to download applications that perform all of the dietary monitoring that is necessary for good health. These applications include the ability to track and record the number of calories, sugar, carbohydrates, sodium and grams of fat consumed. Some of our clients are wanting this information on our menus too.
3. Nostalgic nosh
As life speeds up and becomes even busier, people are yearning for the simplicity, warmth and certainty of bygone eras. Hence the growth in comfort food eating and retro recipes. You will start to see back on the menus prawn cocktail, moussaka, chicken Kiev and Black Forest gateau.
4. Cognac
There are certain timeless classics that retain their allure in part because of their superior quality and corresponding prestige. Cognac is one of these things so look out for the new chocolate and cognac bars
5. Gluten-free
We have started to use super-nutritious grains such as quinoa and amaranth in dishes that might once have used wheat flour. Here's a recipe for you to try for comparison's sake:
Banana bread with amaranth flour
200 gr (2.1 oz) amaranth flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
201 gr (7 oz) sugar
2 eggs
½ cup canola oil
340 gr (12 oz) very ripe bananas (around 3 bananas)
2 Tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
75 gr (2.6 oz) pecans, toasted and chopped.
Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). Grease loaf pan 23 × 13 × 7.5 cm (9 x 5.1 x 3 inches)
In a medium bowl, whisk together the amaranth flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the chopped pecans, with a rubber spatula mix only to incorporate. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mash the bananas using a fork. Stir the sour cream and the vanilla. Set aside.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar and the eggs until light and fluffy. On low speed, very slowly add the canola oil. Add the banana mixture and mix well. Finally add the flour mixture and mix until all the ingredients are well combined. The batter is smooth and fluffy.
Spread the batter into prepared pan. Smooth surface with a straight spatula. Bake for 1 -1 ¼ hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool.

An off the shoulder dress shows just enough skin. However, the slit doesn't hurt either (truly)! My pink dress was on sale at Urban Outfitters. Still available in one other color! Throw a coat on after the sun sets. Perfect for a date that might last day and into the evening if your special someone is a romantic. Hey, a girl can dream! Coat from Anthropologie. The same stilettos I wore with the palazzo pants can be found by clicking: here. This outfit was under $150.

Hope this post was helpful or provided a little inspo! Can you tell I'm a sucker for a good sale? I hope you share your outfit ideas with me as well!

What if Ron Howard's standalone Han Solo movie mind-melded with quirky comedy series "Arrested Development?" Magic. That's what. Nerdist posted a pitch-perfect mashup video on Monday that combines Han Solo scenes from Star Wars with "Arrested Development" voice-overs, jaunty music and visual gags.
Howard, who took over the untitled young Han Solo movie in June after the original directors left the project, provided the iconic narration for the comedy show about the strange misadventures of the Bluth family.
"Arrested Rebellion" works as both sci-fi and comedy. The narration turns Han Solo's storyline into a snarky romp. The famous "I know" line spoken in response to Leia's "I love you" is explained away by the voice-over: "He knew he couldn't say 'no,' but he also knew he couldn't flirt in front of her father."
Just be sure to stick around until the end of the video when Nerdist drops a preview for next season with footage from "The Force Awakens."

Please listen to this 4 minute excerpt from Dr. Blanchet and Lindsay's program on "Myths and Truths About Women and Heart Disease". Mammograms show the presence of calcium in the breast arteries. This correlates directly with calcium in coronary arteries. YET, radiologists do not mention this in their mammography reports. This critical information is routinely withheld from women.
