From SLU Athletics
NACOGDOCHES, Texas – Stephen F. Austin right-hander Chase Greening kept the Southeastern Louisiana bats off balance through seven innings Friday as the Lions fell, 4-0, in the opener of a Southland Conference baseball series.
Greening (4-2) and Cory Maltz combined on a seven-hit shutout as Southeastern (25-14, 8-5) fell one game back of SFA (20-17, 9-5) in the conference standings. The Lumberjacks are now in sole possession of first place in the Southland as both Sam Houston State and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi dropped the first game of their respective series. T
he Lumberjacks scored single runs in the third and fifth innings and scored a pair in the seventh as they chased Lion starter Andro Èutura.
Working around a bases-loaded, no-out situation in the third, Èutura allowed just the single run. In the fifth, a pair of two-out singles plated Freddy Villalobos with the game's second run.
Hunter Dozier, the Southland's leading hitter, led off the seventh with a solo home run just inside the left-field foul pole. It was his 11th of the season. Villalobos followed with a double and the Lions elected to bring in Dylan Hills. Villalobos later scored on a sacrifice fly to left.
Greening earned the win while Èutura (0-2) suffered the loss. Sam Roberson led Southeastern at the plate with a 2-for-3 night, including a lead-off double in the fourth.
Saturday, Lion freshman right-hander Tate Scioneaux (4-0, 3.22) draws junior right-hander Kyle Cross (4-3, 3.02) as the series continues at 2 p.m.
The game can be heard in the Hammond area on KSLU-FM (90.9), on the internet through the Southeastern athletics website, as well as on the KSLU iPhone and TuneIn Radio apps. Live stats, courtesy SFA, will be available. Links to audio and stats are located on the baseball schedule page at www.LionSports.net.

TheHabasha said:
This is a timeless classic. Richard Condon is very effective with this scary tale of psychological manipulations (a.k.a brainwashing) and political conspiracies. You can't help comparing this book to George Orwell's "1984". I highly recommend this book for its originality if for nothing else.

The judge is calling for an early adjournment instead of coming back with AGent (Beckman). We're done for the day.
SAuer is excused. Now this is karma coming back to bite me. The next witness is the agent whose name came up earlier which I misspelled. Let's hope he's asked to say his name and spell it for the record so I can get it right. Short break.
Thomas asks SAuer about investigator's note the say EB stored money in her mattress and her drawer. So now we have money being stored in a mattress, a shoe, and a vacuum cleaner.
Thomas asks if Sauer considered that Bell was saving cashier's checks to spend in 2008 rather than giving the money to Kilpatrick. Sauer says he did consider it.
Thomas asks if he checked records at any other Casino's, Sauer answered that he couldn't say definitively that he did.
Thomas now showing a list that he says is SAuer's list of Bell's yearly earning for 2003 through 2008. SAuer says this list is now her yearly earnings but the total amount of money she got from the Kilpatrick funds.
Thomas is asking if there's an upward trend in the money she gets from the Kilpatrick funds and that her gambling activity also going up. Sauer he sees the trend.
WE're looking at a list that shows the years 2003-2008 and the dollar figures start at $119,000 and trend up to$278,000 in 2007 and then drop to $67,000 in 2008.
Thomas now back on Bell's Greektown records. Thomas points out that Bell bet more than $800,000 but Sauer points out that she got nearly that amount back so this figure shows the same money going in and out and again points out that it's a slippery figure.
Thomas is making hay on the huge gambling activity by Bell.
Thomas again. Asking if ere are any documents Kwame co-signed a check, no tape recordings. Sauer says no, but there are text messages. Thomas cuts him off and says "I asked about tape recordings."
Thomas asking if there are no corroborating large deposits in Kwame's bank account.
Bullotta asks if Sauer is aware of other witnesses who saw Bell go into rooms with Kwame. SAuer says yes.
Ouch, Bell has to pay the bribe and the tax according to the prosecutors.
Bullotta asks about first meetings with Bell. Sauer says at first meeting Bell told Sauer she only split checks of more than $20,000 but at the second meeting she told Sauer she split checks $5,000 and above. Bullotta asks was Kwame getting more money then? Sauer says yes, Bell didn't want Kwame to sound petty, that in her mind she was trying to protect him, that she thought of Kwame like a son.
Sauer says bell plead guilty to 2 counts of tax evasion and is being held accountable to the whole amount of her tax liability. Bribes are not deductible and she has to pay tax on that.
Sauer now testifying that he got more information after 2010 and the updated record is more accurate.
Sauer says there was one cashier's check for $42,000 the bank didn't give him but he got it from the defense. Doesn't know what happened to that money.
Bullotta now asking about Bell's gambling debts. Did Emma Bell make enough money in 2005 to cover her gambling debts if she split checks with Kilpatrick and Sauer say based on his review yes. Same for the next year.
The records show that for one year Bell dropped more than $700,000 into the slot machines. Bullotta asks Sauer if that total also counts money she won and put back in and Sauer says yes.
Thomas asks if, now looking at the transcript, Sauer remember saying Bell kept the full money for herself, Sauer says that's what the record reflects.
Bullotta now on redirect. SAuer is now reading the whole paragraph that Thomas was referring to. Bullotta asks is there anything in the record that says anything about Kwame saying she could keep the money for her birthday and Sauer says there is not.
Thomas want to know if Sauer remembers Bell telling him that Kwame told her she could keep a $50,000 check because it was her birthday. Sauer says he would have to refer to the documents. Thomas says no, he wants to test SAuer's memory. Sauer says he recalls a conversation about a birthday but can't recall what Kwame told her.
Thomas asks again.Prosecution objects as argumentative. Thomas says he'll move on.
Thomas asks if Bell stole the money. Sauer says the checks were made out to her so it isn't stealing.
Thomas asks Sauer knew Bell was an alcoholic. SAuer says Bell mentioned she had a drinking problem.
Thomas is now asking about Bell's testimony to the grand jury where she says she split the money from the checks she got from the non-profits with Kwame Kilpatrick.
Thomas is now asking if the deal Bell cut with the government cuts down the amount of time she'll spend in jail. Sauer is saying he believes that is correct.
Thomas asks do you remember telling the grand jury there was not direct corroboration between the money taken out of Bell's account and the money going into Kwame's account? Sauer says he does.
Thomas says there is no corroboration that Bell was giving this money to Kilpatrick and Sauer says there is. Thomas asks did anyone see Bell give money to the Mayor and Sauer says no. Witnesses? No. Text messages. No.
Thomas, " so your corroboration is that Bell took money out of her account and that's all" SAuer says there are also Kwame's record of bank deposits.
Thomas asks if Sauer considered that Bell was taking the cashier's checks to the casino and not paying Kwame. Sauer answers that he knew about the gambling.
Thomas is now showing a document listing Bell's gambling debts from the Greektown CAsino showing BEll lost $39,000 in 2006, in 2007 and lost more than $56,000. IN 2008 she lost 10;S of thousands more.
Thomas is now asking if Sauer pulled Bell's gambling records. Sauer says the government has the records but the document Thomas is now showing is a different format than the one the government received.
Thomas is now adding up Bell's gambling spending, gross bets. Thomas asks," were you aware that on that day she put into play $9,000." Sauer says Gross Bets is a slippery number because it could be the same money played over and over.
Sauer agrees it looks like Bell was gambling.
Sauer says the the cashier's check Bell bought total $18,000 and total Bell used $12,046.00 to pay personal bills. Thomas says bell spent the money and didn't have enough to pay Kwame the alleged $15,000 payment
Sauer says Bell had other CAshiers checks available at the time.
Thomas is now asking if Bell had, at one point to potential, to give Kilpatrick $18,000 and Sauer says that's not correct. Now Sauer is trying to figure out what spread sheet Thomas is talking about. Thomas is asking Sauer to bear with him for a second.
Thomas now pointing to a bank generated spread sheet showing a list of cashiers checks. Sauer says he sees it on the bank document but didn't have it on the one he prepared.
Thomas just asked a series of questions about SAuer's testimony to the grand jury and Bell's records but didn't have the documents readily available. Sauer says Thomas will have to refresh his memory and Thomas says he'll get the documents for him.
They're looking at a May 2008 transaction now for a $25,000 transaction where bell paid her credit card, and made a few other transactions including purchasing cashier's check that Thomas says it's alleged she gave Kilpatrick between $10,000-$15,000. SAuer says it's an old chart and Thomas asks if he wants to show him a newer chart and Sauer says he doesn't have one with him on the stand.
Thomas asks if the document he prepared has evolved, if he included a transaction the defense found, and Sauer says yes.
Thomas asks Sauer if he knew that Bell knew she could avoid filing a financial transaction report by keeping her transactions under $10,000 and Sauer says he did.
court is back in session. Agent Sauer is standing next to the witness box waiting to be seated. I'm not fashion oriented kind of guy (ask my wife) but Susan VAn Dusen stands out today in her bright red blazer. Everyone else at the defense table is wearing dark suits except Bernard Kilpatrick who is wearing a khaki colored suit. I think it's khaki, it might be taupe.
Kwame Kilpatrick is back in his seat, sitting back in his chair with his head propped up by his left arm. He's the only one at the defense table, sitting expressionless.
STill on break. Jim Thomas is going over exhibits with Mike Naughton at the podium. Prosecutors are chatting together behind the prosecution table. all the defendants left the court room.
The Judge orders a break. So we're taking 5. Thomas says he'll get into Bell's plea agreement when we come back.
Thomas asks if Bell was allowed to plead to reduced charges. Sauer says he knew Bell plead to tax charges.
SAuer says she justified her lying because she didn't want them to know she split the small checks. Thomas asks is that because she did' want to make him (Kilpatrick) look petty.
Thomas says Bell lied to the government and Sauer says yes, Bell told investigators that she only split big checks with Kilpatrick when in fact she was splitting smaller checks as well.
Thomas asks if Bell was concerned about being charged with a crime. Sauer says they had a conversation about it. Thomas says Bell new she was "structuring" and Sauer says he had not determined that. Thomas is setting the stage to show that the government didn't charge Bell with a crime to get her testimony against Kilpatrick.
Thomas says it's also clear that Bell told Sauer about a scheme. Sauer says yes.
Thomas says BEll told them she didn't split money with Kilpatrick on checks for less than $20,000.
SAuer says he met with Emma and her attorney and Bullotta and Bachman (pronounced Beckman) and others. My apologies to AGent Beckman for the botched spelling.
Thomas."you're meeting were about the amount of money miss bell funneled to Mr Kilpatrick were they not?" SAuer says yes.
Thomas says he's not talking about the old spreadsheet to trick Sauer or anything. Sauer says he's uncomfortable with using an old spreadsheet that's not accurate. Thomas asking about meetings with Bell continuing to ask her about the checks she received.
Thomas now asking Sauer about a payment to Bell and asking Sauer about Bell's claim that Kilpatrick received a range of payments between 10 and 15 thousand dollars. Thomas asks if this document was put together to help refresh Bell's memory and SAuer says no.
Thomas now asking about a series of documents from April 2008 showing payments to Bell by Kilpatrick entities prepared by Sauer. Sauer says this is an old document and not accurate and the information has changed. Thomas wants to talk about the differences and Sauer says he needs the new spreadsheet to be accurate.
Thomas wants to know if Sauer knew Bell purchased a fur coat and donated to the NAACP which were personal expenses. Sauer is looking at the documents. says yes these are personal expenses.
Thomas is now asking if Bell should have been charged with a crime for "structuring" her finances to avoid having to declare the money. Sauer says they had discussions with Bell About this and that Bell knew that if she kept the checks below 10,000 dollars and one cent she could avoid having to declare it.
When/if, Emma Bell takes the stand, all this questioning by Thomas about her tax problems, will be a big factor as the jury hears her testimony. Thomas stated in court that Bell is gong to claim that some of the money from these cashiers checks went into Kwame's pocket.
Thomas is now asking about a $50,000 check of which Bell got $10,000. Thomas asks if this was a calculated concealment and Sauer agrees.
Sauer testifies that there was $100,000 that he couldn't find. Thomas wants to know why the defense was able to come up with more records when he couldn't. Thomas says they found another cashier's check for 48,000. Sauer agrees the bank came up with another record after the defense asked the bank to look again.
Thomas is now asking about Bell keeping cashiers checks instead of making deposits to keep the money out of the hands of the IRS. Thomas asks if Sauer know if Bell took any of the checks to a casino to cash and Sauer say he has no evidence of that.
Thomas asks if SAuer knew that Bell hasn't filed tax returns for many years.
Thomas asks if he knew why Bell only kept a few hundred dollars in her account and Sauer's says to keep the money from being levied by the IRS. SAuer says there was on IRS levy against Bell.
SAuer now says the checks Bell used to get the cashiers checks were written to her personally and were from the various Kilpatrick non-profits.
Thomas asks if he knows that lawyers were giving advice to the fund and Sauer agrees. Sauer also testifies that Kwame was not the manager of the fund, he removed his name from the paperwork much earlier. Thomas asks if he knows that Bell did not have check writing authority and that Bell had IRS problems. Sauer's says he knew that because Bell told him she had tax problems.
Thomas asks if Sauer knew that Emma Bell was getting a percentage of the money she raised and Sauer says he did know that.
Jim Thomas now asking about one of those entities called Next Vision. Thomas asks Sauer, this wasn't related to Kilpatrick and Sauer says it was run by his Sister Ayana and his wife was getting a salary. Thomas asks if he understands that a person can draw a salary from a civic fund and Sauer agrees.
They're going through more transactions now. This is where the government says Kilpatrick defrauded donors to the Kilpatrick for Mayor, Kilpatrick inaugural Committee, and other Kilpatrick related non-profits totaling more than $286,000. The transactions they're talking about show that Bell got several checks from the entities, bought cashiers checks, and then cashed them later.
THey're following one transaction now. Bell got about $80,000, bought cashiers checks, payable to several people, but Bell got checks made out to her for $10,000 and one for $20,000.
Bullotta asking about Jan 17 transactions. SAuer says she got 50, 000 that day and purchased 40,000 in cashiers check.
On the 18th she took one $10,000 check back to the bank, turned it in for cash.
Jan 17 2006 is when Sauer says bell got $50,000 after cashing a check then purchase $40,000 in cashiers checks. Sauer says he traced the cashiers checks to Emma Bell and Angela Buress. 3 for $10 grand to Bell and one 10 grand check to Buress.
He says Bell then cashed one check and got cash. Sauer says he followed the checks and money transactions to "conclusion."
Bullotta asking if Sauer knows Emma Bell. Sauer says she was the primary fundraiser for Kwame Kilpatrick's various non-profits related his Inaugural Committee and other Mayoral campaign non-profits.
ASsistant Federal Prosecutor Mike Bullotta is now walking Sauer through the timeline, UNITE incorporated in July 2000, contract with Detroit 3-D signed October 2000, check deposited shortly thereafter.
New witness. AGent Sauer, special to the IRS. This is the witness we heard from yesterday who followed the money from the check issued by the state to the Non-profit.
Now he's talking about CArlita Kilpatrick's company UNITE and looking at the incorporation documents for the company.
Sauer say yes it's a for profit company as it was incorporated with the state.
Van Dusen asking if the establishment of a training area to train people in demolition trade would be considered economic development? Bartlett says he thought they grant was supposed to be used for training, not for purchasing or preparing a training area.
Van Dusen says, "Sir, did you hear me ask anything about the purchase of a building in my question." Bartlett says he thought he heard her talk about preparation.
Bartlett is excused.
VAn Dusen up, she's asking if Bartlett would consider the building of a training area to be economic development and Bartlett says yes.
Thomas is drawing a comparison between Vanguard, which got the second half of its grant, and 3-D which did not. Thomas is basically saying if it's okay for one company it should be okay for the other. I should point out that nobody is claiming that vanguard used the money to furnish a fancy office for the company president.
Kwame's attorney Jim Thomas is up. He's asking about an email from Don Gilmer that he was copied on. They're talking about Donna Williams the grant writer for non-profit Van Guard. Bartlet says suddenly there was a property involved and that caused concern. Bartlett agrees with Thomas that the email from the state says that at least to Van Guard, if there was proper documentation, the State would have no problem with renovations. Vanguard is the second Non-profit in the case and it's owned by Bishop Van.
Prosecution now up. Bartlett testifies that remodeling an office would not be considered economic development.
Susan VAn Dusen is continuing her Cross exam. She's Ferguson's attorney. she's asking him about and interview he had with the FBI. Bartlett says he reviewed the grant paperwork. This is a continuation of the testimony about the non-profit owned by Bobby Ferguson. Van Dusen is asking if economic development is part of the grant and Bartlett agrees.
The government contends that using the non-profit company 3-D that Bobby got grant money from the state and used part of the money to remodel his offices.
Kelly Bartlett is back on the stand this morning. He worked in the Legislative Liaison Office. The Judge is passing along instructions to the jury about what the letters mean on the exhibits and tells the they'll get an index of the exhibits before they start deliberating.
"All Rise" The Judge says the jury sent her a note asking for the attorneys to get their exhibit numbers organized. "for what it's worth." says Judge Edmunds.
All the attorneys and defendants are now seated and wafting for the Judge.
Kwame Kilpatrick and Bobby Ferguson are now sitting at the defense table, heads together, talking quietly. We haven't seen much of co-defendant Victor Mercado yet. He's usually the first defendant to be seated every morning, as he was this morning. He and his attorney sit closest to the bench, along the side wall. A couple seats to his right, following the table toward the back of the room is Bernard Kilpatrick. This table is along the inside wall of the court room and faces the center podium. Around the corner Bobby sits closest to the wall facing the Judge and one seat away from the center aisle is Kwame. His attorney Jim Thomas sits in the seat on the center aisle.
8:52 am
Good morning from the Theodore Levin Federal Court House in downtown Detroit. The Defense Attorneys are sitting down at the defense table. Bernard Kilpatrick is in the room but Kwame Kilpatrick and Bobby Ferguson have not arrived yet. Kwame's attorney Jim Thomas is conferring with prosecutors and getting copies of exhibits.
Ken Martinek is Senior Producer-Investigations for WJBK-TV Fox 2 News Detroit. He will be writing live updates from the courthouse through the duration of the Kilpatrick corruption trial.

At about line 43 of the index.html example, the line needs to be changed to:

info

The line needs the onclick to show the Info blocks.
Thanks for a great little tool.
I believe it would be beneficial to add onkeypress="?showInfo();" to those links, for keyboard users.
Logging is powerful for tracking down problems you didn't expect to happen, assuming logging is occuring in the right places and there's a way to get at the log output. A nice feature for fvlogger would be "crash report" submission UI so users could report failures back to the site maintainer.
When you know a problem exists interactive debuggers are often more efficient than trial-and-error logging, and are worth the effort spent learning thier quirks. Plus, you get to skip the frustrating "trial-and-error" step.
This is very nice.
A couple of features I would add:
1) Date/Timestamps prefixing each log, – auto generated.
2) A global switch to turn logging on and off.
All up, – very sweet! Nice article.

This logging script looks very nice and I'm certainly going to give it a try. If it's of any use to anyone, there is another logging mechanism I have been using for several years. This is IE only, and only of use for debugging scripts running on your local box. Despite these limitations, if that's the setup you are debugging, it is quite powerful. This is an activex dll, originally made available by Microsoft in the IIS 4 resource kit, called IISSamples.Tracer. It is a very light c++ wrapper round the printDebugString windows api call. All messages logged via this utility can be viewed in the (free) debugviewer utility from sysinternals. The main advantage of this mechanism is that the logging is very fast, particularly useful when debugging mousemovements etc where the overhead of javascript logging methods may interfere with the script you're trying to debug. It also prints accurate timings with the messages. I don't beleive this is available on the web anymore, and I have no means of posting it but if you want a copy, email me and I'll send it to you.
Thanks for your comments; you can turn logging on/off by setting the value of FVL_LOG_ON to false in logger.js. As for the timestamping of logging statements, I'll definitely consider it for a future version, although it's relatively simple to implement if you're familiar with JavaScript. If you need a hand, let me know. Cheers!
Someone was wondering if this is correct:
They were correct, script is not an empty element in the (X)HTML DTD, so must be written as:
Great article.
I think that you could also use this technique to write out javascript errors to a logfile on the server. This would be a handy way to catch user-generated js errors in production. Instead of writing the errors to a document object, write them to a variable, and then pass that variable using XMLHttpRequest to a server-side script which then captures the message to a file. Only problem I can think of is that this script is then exposed to the public, and someone mischievous could write tons of messages to your server. But perhaps this would be something you would deploy only on a case-by-case basis when you want to track down elusive, idiosyncratic bugs.
I enjoyed looking at your take on the javascript logger. If you are looking for something that acts more like Log4J, I wrote a quick logging class for some of my own projects called log4js – "http://log4js.sf.net":http://log4js.sf.net . It is a little more robust in that it allows for multiple loggers per page (each is an object), and multiple targets, such as alerts, a popup dialog, or the safari javascript console…
Then again, it is written by a java programmer returning to javascript after a long hiatus.
Nice stuff. I have already started using it and find it quite useful.
ALA, Keep such article coming. ALA has saved me so much time with such high class material.
Thanks for the Good stuff,
I very much enjoyed this article, but I found the statement "The concept of logging was popularized by Apache's Log4J package for Java" curious. I have heard of log4j but I was not aware that it has popularized the field of logging – is that to suggest that prior to log4j, logging was uncommonly used? Perhaps it depends what field you are in, but in UNIX we've enjoyed the syslog daemon (syslogd) for quite some time, and logging is standard practise in most applications.
Noticed a couple bumps:
1. Putting very simple function names like "show" and "hide" in the top-level namespace is bound to cause problems. I'm working on a web app that already has these functions defined, and adding the logger will override them. I had to change all the fvlogger functions to have a "fvl_" prefix to them.
2. The logger won't catch errors that occur as the page is parsed—for example, if you have a javascript in the BODY that just runs immediately (before the page finishes loading), fvlogger won't catch it.
What's worse, if the offending code is placed AFTER the logger.js include, but BEFORE the fvlogger DIV, it becomes invisible, since the window.onerror is redirected: No error message shows up in the javascript console. This seems like a big flaw to me.
I know Venkman has a cool Profile feature which I've used manually and which allows you to log data about which javascipt functions are being called and the min/max/avg process times per function. Is there any way to automate this in Venkman ?
Is anyone aware of another tool that would do this ?
Thx !
The Dashboard widget API already has a great console logger built in. In fact, all alert()s go straight to the console. This works well: if you forget to remove your logging code before release users won't be pestered by pop-up windows or other unsightly logging messages.
We are stuck with a Javascript call creating a div and a class name. In FF it works great, but in IE it is not passing any of the class elements and as a result the effect we want, rows and columns, are lost and just one column is left.
here is the code we are using:
// This is the div that contains each image and it's browse box.
var newElement = document.createElement('div');
newElement.setAttribute('id', 'previewDiv');
newElement.setAttribute('class', 'uploadBox');
// This is the image!
var imgDiv = document.createElement('div');
imgDiv.setAttribute('id', 'preview-img');
imgDiv.setAttribute('class', 'previewImgDiv');
I have gone through some articles here and tried some other ways of doing this and IE just won't play nice. Any direction would be appreciated.
I had been itting the problem of how to set the class attribute in Javascript and having IE render it. I found this discussion, which gave me a part of the solution.
I had been trying to use
el.classname = 'someclass';
(el = document.getElementByID('divname') was assumed here)
But that created an attribute of classname – not class – so CSS rendering was not occurring. This discussion indicated that I could use the
I would then appendChild to the divname and – no CSS rendering.
But the el[removed] = "
somehtml
" always worked.
So I turned it on itself - el[removed] = el[removed]
and it rendered.
I have been getting back into Javascript to use some Ajax techniques so I feel like I am learning this again – and these problems could be my own lack of understanding.
It was helpful to have this discussion available – thanks.
jsTracer performs similar logging functionality but also allows you to denote or highlight logged messages. It also provides a stack viewer and won't cause slow script warnings on complex JavaScript code.

Hey David, thanks for fvlogger. I was using it to debug some Flash/Javascript integration, then, just for the hell of it, hooked up our Flash tracing to a separate window with fvlogger in it using the Flash ExternalInterface calls. Brilliant.
We've had Flash debuggers inside Flash before… but at runtime they can't really handle the volume of debug info that can come out. Hell, even the Flash IDE has the poorest output log ever.
fvlogger was easy to get working.
Keep the great work going. The tips are really helpful, as are some of the discussions. Learnt a lot. Thank you.

Pirates Welcome Wolf Pack for Pink in the Rink, presented by CMMC
Lewiston, ME – The Portland Pirates will welcome the Hartford Wolf Pack to Maine for the first time in three years as they face off for the 7th annual Pink in the Rink game, presented by Central Maine Medical Center. Puck drop is set for 7 as the Pirates look for their first win of the 2013-14 season.
The Pirates have had a week off since their last contest, a 5-2 defeat at the hands of the Providence Bruins. Both Jordan Szwarz and Jordan Martinook scored for the Pirates, while Andy Miele and Brandon Gormley each tallied assists. Mike Lee made 24 saves in his first start of the season for the Pirates. The Pirates power play was again effective, with Jordan Szwarz's goal coming on the man advantage, and ranks 1st in the AHL with a 37.5% conversion rate.
Hartford continued their hot start last night with a 4-3 shootout victory over the Manchester Monarchs. Rookie Danny Kristo scored his third goal of the season, and Marek Hrivik and Aaron Johnson scored 20 seconds apart to tie the game in the third period. Hrivik and Brandon Mashinter then scored in the shootout to give the Wolf Pack their 4th victory in 5 games. Hartford goaltender Cam Talbot, who was reassigned from the NY Rangers earlier in the day, made 30 saves, including a penalty shot save in overtime, for the win.
The Wolf Pack return to Maine after a 3 year period where they were known as the Connecticut Whale. The Pirates last faced the Whale in their regular season home finale on April 20th, with Pirates forward Phil Lane picking up a hat trick for the Pirates in the 5-1 victory. Andy Miele had a 3 point night for the Pirates as well, while Mike Lee made 31 saves on 32 shots in the victory.
The Pirates will wear celebrate Pink in the Rink for the 7th straight year and will wear special Pink jerseys. The special jerseys will be auctioned off online at a later date. Prior to tonight's game, Breast Cancer survivors, fighters, caretakers, and their families will be honored on ice during a pregame ceremony. Fans are encouraged to be in their seats by 6:55 for the ceremony. During the game, the American Cancer Society will raffle off a special edition, team signed Pink in the Rink Jersey with all proceeds benefiting Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. Tonight's 50/50 proceeds will be donated to the Bennett Breast Care Cancer Center at Central Maine Medical Center.
Tonight's game can be heard on the Pirates flagship stations WPEI 95.5/95.9 FM as well as WEZR AM 1240 and WTME AM 780/1450 in the Lewiston/Auburn area. The game can also be heard online at portlandpirates.com by clicking "Listen Live" and AHL Live. The pregame show starts at 6:40 with Jeff Mannix. Tickets are still available by calling the Androscoggin Bank Colisee box office at (207) 783-2009 ext. 525 or online at thecolisee.com.

Dems Hope for Campaign Edge on Tax Issue
On The Radar
Democrats feel they're closer than ever in their long-running bid to paint Republicans as being much more eager to cut taxes for the rich than for the working class. But public contempt for Congress is so rampant that the effort may fade away in a pox-on-all-their-houses fog. If that happens, President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats could lose a political edge as they head into the 2012 elections with a struggling economy.
Hate Washington? Join The Club
Gwen's Take
Welcome to my hometown. There are few places in the world that people hate so much, yet expend such extraordinary effort trying to get to.
Myself, I find much to love about Washington. The monuments are pretty. The green spaces are well-manicured. The museums are astounding (and mostly free). And it is just Southern enough to produce good food and good people.
But if there is one thing that never seems to change, it is that the rest of the country has come to hate the caricature the city has become.

If you don't know what "neuropathy" is, consider yourself lucky. It is nerve pain/numbness, usually in the hands and feet, that can be caused by a number of chemotherapy drugs. For women with breast cancer, the usual culprits are the taxanes: Taxol and Taxotere. Certainly, not every woman develops this side effect, but it can be very distressing and even disabling for those who do.
I have known some women who experienced "mild" tingling in their hands and feet (similar to the "my hand is asleep" sensation" that persisted for a little while after treatment and then resolved. I have known some other women whose hands became almost dysfunctional as they could not button their clothes or use a keyboard due to pain in their fingertips. I have known a few women who could barely walk due to pain on the soles of their feet; one clever woman with that problem cut out bubble wrap to line her shoes and found it helped a lot. Until now, there was not been a very helpful treatment for this problem.
Sometimes, a chemotherapy plan has been changed due to neuropathy. Some women with advanced breast cancer are switched to a different drug, and some women receiving Taxol as part of adjuvant treatment are either switched or the treatment is shortened. The usual advice has been to use lots of hand cream, maybe Vitamin B6, and hope that it gets better. Now a study suggests that an anti-depressant called Duloxetine (Cymbalta) helps.
Here is the beginning of an article from the Gupta Report and a link to read more:
Duloxetine May Ease Neuropathy from Chemo
by Cole Petrochko, Staff Writer, MedPage Today
Published: April 02, 2013
Reviewed by Robert Jasmer, MD; Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco
The depression and anxiety drug duloxetine
effectively treated painful chemotherapyinduced
peripheral neuropathy, results of a
phase III trial showed.
Over 5 weeks of treatment, patients receiving
duloxetine experienced significantly larger
mean decreases in pain as measured by the
Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF) than
did patients on placebo (1.06 versus 0.34,
P=0.003), with a mean difference between the
two groups of 0.73 (95% CI 0.26 to 1.20),
according to Ellen Lavoie Smith, PhD, of the
University of Michigan School of Nursing in
Ann Arbor, and colleagues.
Additionally, more patients initially treated with
duloxetine than with placebo reported pain
decreases of any amount (59% versus 38%),
they wrote online in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
Painful chemotherapy-induced peripheral
neuropathy occurs in roughly 20% to 40% of
patients treated with neurotoxic chemotherapy
agents such as taxanes, platinums, and vinca
alkaloids, Lavoie Smith and co-authors noted,
adding that the condition can persist for years
following completion of treatment and can induce functional and quality of life impairments.

The 9cm x 15cm is print size. I'd suggest working larger, as when you scale things down - it makes everything cleaner looking. Think in scale, I'm probably going to work 9 inches by 15 inches, because I know my computer can handle it. That may not work for you.
I'm fine with not using Russian, I'm rather fond of the bird idea. However, I think you could have said something earlier, Curly. But, thank you for speaking up now.
While we don't have the same drawing style, we still need our work to be unified. So, having some of our 'characters' wearing Russian clothing, and Curly's not - would separate our work entirely.
I'm gonna gather more material, more inspiration. I say go with the birds.
Posting some beginning work in the next few hours.
Any last comments? Arguments? other ideas?
Okay, so since we all agree, let's do that. (I assume curly agrees too, because it was her idea )
I did some sketches twice the size - 18 x 31 (it is 15,5 and not 15, is it? I'll better check again, not that I'm doing something wrong ...)
I just don't get a satisfying pose for the magician, but I already found a first idea for the princess of wands. It's still quite Russian and without much bird-things, because I started sketching in the morning when I was waiting for replies^^' I've altered it a bit so that it's not too visible anymore. I think it might fit with curly's work, depending on her style. The kokoshnik kinda sucks, at least in the way it is now, maybe I'll leave it out completely.
Tell me what you think about it I think I'm getting better with colors gradually.
Hey Tag,
I would suggest using photo reference for your pose. And try to ensure your proportions are correct. Right now, your arms are a bit short, your torso/legs look compact. Perhaps lengthening them?
i also think it's funny we both went for darker hued skinned. posting mine momentarily.
Thanks, but actually the arms and legs weren't meant to stay like that^^
I'm still not sure how I should put them so I just left it open. Thought she might stand on some kind of slope and uphold her dress with the right hand.
Here's my princess? lol. I can't decide. First draft
I like the pose, it's ... well, something different. But I don't understand what's the dark thing on the right(?)
Uhh - I'll go off for now. Parents and stuff, already 2 AM here.
It's her hair. Night. I'll be here til prolly 1am Central if anyone logs on :o I've got to catch up after catching the flu this week. lol.
Empress? First draft
Mh okay ... I think the hair should flow a bit more or something.
Nice empress^^ Btw: I just read that the goal is to illustrate a story or something that is linked to the card. Must have missed that, kind of.
On a related note, the color that belongs to the swords is actually blue and not yellow. (Didn't watch for that either ... the color of the wands is yellow, not red)
Though often used as a form of divination, we'll be approaching it from a strictly design perspective. Each card is meant to tell a very particular tale (though this tale often depends on the reader) and has many symbols and meanings attached to it. The goal will be to do each card as a character-based (this is still chow) illustration to illuminate the meaning of the card. However, the specific meaning and the symbols will be up to you. We will, however, be following mostly to the Rider-Waite deck, with the exception that we will be using Princess instead of Page.
think I'll be switching them, empress toucan and princess peacock or some other bird with blue
Here's my second draft, second pose and second look.
Any comments, critiques?
I decided to keep Toucan as princess and peacock as empress. We can do some changing as we see fit to the colors etc.
Mh ... I like Don't have anything to criticize at the moment.
Will do some sketches for the magician soon. Hopefully.
think her hand is too big -.o
Anyone else got anything to share? -.o
WHAAA THE bird theme is HOT I REALLY LIKE THE peacock empress AN THE POSE IN THE Toucan IS WICKED Ephelea AN IM LIKE'N THE COLORS YA GOT GO'N SO FAR Tagtraum GOOD LUCK W/ THE CONTEST THIS IS GUNNA ROCK!!!
Thanks^^ Good luck to you too I just visited your team sketchbook and the sketches look great. Love the grinning king!
So, the princess developed a bit (need more feathers x_x'), but the magician has still no satisfying pose, maybe because I'm not sure how I want to depict him. A charlatan, a powerful mage ... uh.
The BG is nice, Ephelea. I think the feathers should maybe have another color, it doesn't seem to fit to the rest of the pic that well.
I figured that the princesses should have a scroll or a letter in their picture, that might be also important. And that they are (obviously) very young in appearance.
I've missed that you've already added a second page..hhhhh Silly me! Nice progress here!
Ephelea, I really like the empress pose!Very nice ideas! But be careful with your colors and tones - for now your color balance is kinda off. Try to give them some colors of background and vise versa.
Tagtraum, your sketch seems to have a nice atmosphere and better color blending, but it's still to blurry to judge. Be careful not to cut her leg at cruel way
Here my rough knight of wands.
working on it. :o Can't decide.. to make a feather brush, or to go with hair and cloth >_>.
Nice work, so far curly. Interesting composition, but the foremost leg looks like it's slightly tipping downwards, towards us - and isn't on a flat surface. Just doesn't seem to fit the perspective you have for the upper half of the image. Otherwise, good work.
I was hoping to mute the colors in the background, lighten them and make the empress really pop. Might not work. Any suggestions?
So here are three variations, any comments? I tried changing the color of the dress. I'm certainly not done, but it might help? Not sure.
heya ladies, doing great really diggin the bird theme like granny commented above! Only comment or crit or whatever you want to call it, i'd say to keep it loose and fun in the beginning, mainly exploration at this point. Looking forward to how this awesome theme develops!!
the feather/hair situation continues to perplex me >_>...think I like the fabric though.
Glad to see you working with some wild colors. Best of luck to you! Cheers!

Thank you for pointing out about the legs - I've fixed it. You should work on your light shadow colors. Put some colors of the dress into background - like red into trees.
You should give more life to the grass under her feet
light shadow? Sorry >_< I don't understand.
it seems you're both on the page Any thoughts?
Put highlights on her skin too. Add background color as reflex in the shadows - zspecialy on her skin.Add shadows - from her upper body on her skirt,from her head mask on her face and back,from her red skirt on yellow dress.There can't be white highlight on her stomach - if I understand the direction of light correctly
Uhh ... I suppose as a beginner I'm no great help in that matter. I'm currently trying to give my princess some kind of shape, lol.
Maybe search for a reference and pick up the colors with a pipette (or however that thing is called in English) - that's what I'm doing *cough* (that be cheating ?)
She was quicker than me anyway
I like the knight of wands. And I like his wand^^
Oh, I understand now curly Here's my latest attempt, and I've just started adding more reflective color

Wedges( Barbara Haddock Taylor, Baltimore Sun / June 19, 2012 )
Wedges just might be the perfect compromise in these hot summer months. They provide the height of the heel without the balancing act required to walk in them. "I think a lightweight summer wedge when it's done in an espadrille or cork can take you anywhere," says Susannah Siger, owner of Ma Petite Shoe. "You can wear it on the boardwalk, on the beach or out to dinner that night. You're in a heel but you dont have to worry about what surfaces youre walking on. It is the go-to shoe for the summer." Siger's Hampden boutique has a number of wedges that will complete your summer ensemble, including designs by Desigual and Poetic License.

Get your boots and hat and saddle up for a cowgirl party. Mel spills the beans: The party was held in our backyard and I rented hay bales for decoration and seating. The first hour of the party, I had two live ponies that gave pony rides to the kids in our front yard.
While kids waited for their pony ride I hired someone to do face painting and make balloon animals for the kids. I set up 'Claire's Country Store' with cowboy hats and bandannas for all the kids. The store also had barrels of vintage candy and bags for people to fill up with as a favor. Another activity was a 'craftin corral' with coloring sheets and crafts. And I made a photo booth for people to take pictures with fun props like hats, mustaches and glasses.
All the food had a cowgirl/western feel. The appetizers were jalapeno poppers, corn dip, trail mix and veggies with ranch dressing. Drinks were beer, sweet tea and pink lemonade served out of mason jars and root beer and cream soda in bottles with straws. The main course was pulled pork, hot dogs, baked beans, coleslaw, cowboy salad, potato salad and watermelon. I made all the food and all the food labels and used pie tins as plates for that cowboy feel! I also had Bakerella's Cowgirl Cookies in Mason jars for people to take home as favors.
The dessert table featured homemade cupcakes, brownie dipped Oreos, s'mores pops, pink lemonade pony cookies and a cowgirl boot cake. Behind the dessert table was a photo bunting made of pictures from Claire's 3-year-old photo shoot. My friend, Heather made the wooden signs (The Larson Ranch, Claire's Country Store) and she made the Pink Lemonade Pony Cookies.
It was such a fun party! There were 70 people there to celebrate Claire's birthday!
Thanks Mel! Readers, see more pictures of Clarie's party on The Larson Lingo.

cutest girls party I've seen in a while! love it!
This is simply adorable. And perfect. So perfect are all of the birthday parties featured on Ohdeedoh that I am quite certain that I cannot pull off the long rectangular table, adorned with a vintage themed vignette and gluten free food backed by a weather worn fence flanked by colorful bunting with my child's name monogrammed onto it for my son's first birthday party. But I have to aspire to something.
Really cute!
Great party decor, one of my girls thinks that she is a cowgirl, I'm pretty much sure that I have to make her birthday party inspired by this great set up.
Love the decor...the only thing missing at this party are the ponies. Pony rides would take this over the top. A picture with the ponies would help too. ;-) Love it!!

ST. JOHNSBURY, Vt. (AP) — A Vermont snow plow driver and his wife have pleaded not guilty to second degree murder charges in connection with the strangling of a prep school teacher whose 2-year-old son was found in his mother's idling car on a remote back road.
Thirty-year-old Allen Prue and his 33-year-old wife Patricia Prue, of Waterford, appeared separately in court in St. Johnsbury on Wednesday where they were ordered held without bail for their roles in the death of Melissa Jenkins.
Police say the Prues were arrested early Wednesday after a two-day investigation into Jenkins' death.
Following the Wednesday court appearance, Allen Prue's mother, Donna Prue, says her son has never been in trouble with the law before and she has faith he didn't commit the crime.

Whimsy and welders at PIFA's street fair
The month-long Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts is wrapping up this weekend and it's going out with a bang — and with a dinosaur petting zoo, a swaying Spanish galleon, and a Ferris wheel, all lined up on Broad Street for the April 27 PIFA Street Fair. Our advice? Leave the car at home.
Broad will be closed to traffic and open to the eager masses from Chestnut to South Street. Fairgoers can go back to the future in a DeLorean with a flux capacitor, be rescued by a knight on a horse, and dance with robots. For the less adventurous — or those who worked up an appetite from all that robot dancing — plenty of food vendors will be on hand.
"We wanted to create a magical playground on the street," says Jay Wahl of the Kimmel Center, which produced the festival. "We wanted the gates of time to open up, spill down Broad Street, and create this completely whimsical wonderland adventure for everyone."
In keeping with PIFA's time travel theme, Zo Prod, a group of French artists/welders, spent a day scavenging at local scrap-metal yards to find pieces for the two time machines they'll create at the fair. They picked up hubcaps and car doors.
"I went to France last summer looking for unusual acts for the street fair." said Wahl. "I found Zo Prod, which welded works of art as people watched. I asked them if they wanted to come to America — and now they're performing for the first time in America."
The group members usually work out of a former meat-processing plant in France, which also houses an art gallery and a theater.
"The reason that we use material that was previously used is more political than environmental. It is a tribute to the non-consumer," says Zo Prod's Julia Jeanne Henaud, who'll be performing at the fair. "We want to show people beautiful things can be made from the what they discard."

S hannon Mathew, 17, is the first-place winner and recipient of the James H. Parke Memorial Fund Youth Scholarship of $20,000 for her volunteer work with the Miami VA Healthcare System.
She was selected from a national pool of youth volunteers who choose to help veterans at their local veterans affairs hospitals.
"To be recognized as the top youth volunteer in the entire country is a reflection of her devotion and we are lucky that she volunteered with us," said Paul Russo, director of the Miami VA Healthcare System in a news release.
Shannon, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, is the second Miami youth volunteer to win the award through the Department of Veterans Affairs Voluntary Service and the Miami VA Healthcare System. Eileana Hernandez received the award in 2011.
Students from Miami-Dade and Broward counties who get involved in the summer volunteer program are able to work alongside doctors, nurses and VA staff to care for veterans.
"I love it. I love it even more each year," Shannon said. "Helping the patients, hearing the veteran's stories, are a true blessing in my life." Shannon has been accepted to the University of Florida.
The Florida International University Relay For Life event celebrated "10 Years of Hope" by surpassing its fundraising goal to raise over $115,000 with 103 teams.
The recent overnight event at Ryder Business Loop at FIU's Modesto A. Maidique Campus drew more than 4,000 people to raise money for cancer research and patient support.
FIU Relay For Life teamed up with the American Cancer Society for one of the university's largest student fundraisers. Students, faculty and staff were involved and the event began with a Cancer Survivors Lap celebrating those who have survived or who are currently battling cancer.
Also included was a hair-cutting ceremony in partnership with Pantene Beautiful Lengths that allowed over 200 girls to donate eight inches of hair or more to become free, real-hair wigs for women battling hair loss as a result of treatment.
"It can happen to any of us. One in two people will have cancer," said Jennifer Cordero, a senior and director of FIU Relay For Life. Cordero is also a cancer survivor who was diagnosed with thymoma, a rare cancer of the thymus gland, when she was 13 years old. She is still undergoing treatment.
"As a survivor, I don't want the person next to me to have cancer. Relay For Life gives me hope and the strength to keep on fighting. Hopefully one day I'm on the other side," she said in a release.
Since its inception in 2004, FIU Relay For Life has donated $815,000 to the American Cancer Society.
Congratulations to Young Patronesses of the Opera (YPO) for its presentations of The Pied Piper of Hamelin, by Seymour Barab, that will have been performed for 30,000 students in our community by the end of its run in early April.
This is the 39th season of the group's program that reaches out to schoolchildren in Miami-Dade and Broward counties. The 2014 tour began in January.
The 30-minute production includes full sets, costumes, and live music. Each student also receives a workbook created by the organization's education committee members with poems, music, games and puzzles about the opera story.
"In-School Opera program has always held true to the YPO mission to educate and cultivate the love of opera to the youth in the community," said Julie Todaro. Since its inception in 1975, under the leadership of Todaro's mother Louise P. Todaro, it is estimated that more than 500,000 South Florida children in public and private schools have seen the professional performances for free.
YPO members receive hundreds of thank you letters from teachers, principals, and children each year. One teacher wrote, "Thank you for bringing the opera to our school. This opportunity for students is unmatched and we appreciate all you, your staff and cast do to make it possible."
For over 50 years, the organization's volunteer women have made it a mission to bring a love of opera to our community. For more information about YPO visit www.YPO-MIAMI.org.
Trial lawyer Stuart Z. Grossman of Grossman Roth, P.A. has been honored with the 2014 Compassionate Gladiator Award presented by the Florida Justice Association.
Each year the award is given to an individual "who exemplifies strength, skill, drive and heart and who can be described as an unwavering advocate, a master of the trial and a champion for victims."
"I am honored to be the recipient of this prestigious award, as well as to have had the opportunity to speak to such a dedicated group of professionals," Grossman said in a release. His career is distinguished by an unprecedented number of favorable verdicts concentrating on medical malpractice, products liability, and personal injury litigation.
Grossman has won some of the largest honors in Florida including Trial Lawyer of the Year by the American Board of Trial Advocates of Florida. He was the recipient of the Academy of Trial Lawyer's Crystal Eagle Award and inducted into the Academy's Hall of Fame.
When not in the courtroom, Grossman is an author and lecturer. He is also active with Margaux's Miracle Foundation at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, United Cerebral Palsy and United Way.

Empressr is on the Road Again, Next Stop W2ESaturday, March 28th, 2009
The Empresr team of @globalcitizen and myself are heading to Sunny California on Monday the 30th for a week long immersion into the Web 2.0 Expo. Unlike the past years at #w2e where we presented or exhibited, this year I will be there checking out what new technologies and ideas are being presented and blogging back about them. This is a slightly different approach, but what happens when you are involved with the conference is that you never get a chance to listen and see what is going on in the rest of the event. I am excited at this opportunity, I even started to make a schedule of who I want to see, that, for all that know me, is a rarity!
I am also doing demos for all that want to see what's new with Empressr, to schedule some time with me just follow @empressr on Twitter then DM me your availability.
Also don't forget to follow my personal Twitter @bryanthatcher

Publication: The Day
Representatives from four towns have begun discussions to create a regional animal control facility that could house cats, dogs and other animals from New London, Waterford, Montville and East Lyme.
Each town would maintain its own animal control officers and departments, but the facility, which could provide as many as 34 kennels, would be shared, according to Tammy Daugherty, New London's director of development and planning, who is heading up the consolidation efforts.
New London, Waterford and Montville have dog pounds that pre-date state building codes for animal control facilities, and all three need to be updated. East Lyme does not have its own facility, instead sharing space with Waterford.
"This really is a good thing,'' Waterford First Selectman Dan Steward said. "To me it sounds logical."
The group is discussing whether to renovate an existing facility in one of the towns, or to build a new one.
New London and Waterford both own property on Route 85 which could be a central location, according to both town representatives.
"One of the things we're trying to be mindful of is (that) we want the facility to be attractive for folks to come and adopt the animals, but it will still be a municipal facility, not a private rescue facility,'' Daughtery said.
"We want it good quality, but we don't need a Cadillac,'' Montville Mayor Ronald K. McDaniel said.
The cost of a facility has not been determined.
Waterford's shelter, on Route 1 near the town police department, is about 50 years old, Steward said. It shares its 10 stalls with East Lyme and there are usually about five dogs in the kennel from each town, he said.
Steward said Waterford and East Lyme have been working together for two years to raise money to build a new kennel. He said the two towns have raised about $120,000. Some of the funds could go toward planning and construction of a new facility, he said.
Montville's animal shelter is at the public works complex on Maple Avenue and also is in need of repair. The mayor, who was not sure how many dogs are housed at the facility, said he welcomes a discussion to create a centralized shelter.
"As we continue to make efforts as a region to pull together, we are pursuing regional solutions that make sense,'' McDaniel said. "It certainly makes sense to pool our resources and find a collaborative solution."
In New London, animals have been housed at surrounding towns' facilities since a tree fell on the Bates Woods dog pound during a storm last October.
Michael Martin, a New London animal control officer, made it safely out of the building, as did the seven dogs being held there. They were saved by the building's cinder-block walls.
The public works department recently finished repairing the Bates Woods facility, including putting on a new roof, but it remains closed.

Another Sigma DP2 review today - at Photo.net
It is Foveon-day today! In addition to the dpreview review posted earlier today, Josh Root at Photo.net has just posted a Sigma DP2 review. This is a single mega-page experiential review, with web-size sample pictures. We won't spoil the findings here. Thankfully Photo.net does not use one dimensional recommendation-ratings for the camera. A camera like the DP2 makes a very good case why one-dimensional recommendation-ratings are not a good idea.
Special Commentary
And this is a good point in time where we have to question Sigma's mental status. What exactly are they trying to do with digital cameras? Digital is different, you can't just patch a film SLR every few years just so you can say you have an SLR system, and Tamron and Tokina don't :) You are either have to be in it to win it (as they say in sports), or you just stay out of it.
Judging by the lengths they go to produce cameras (and the acquisition of Foveon), they seem to be taking it very seriously. However making SLRs for the Sigma mount is one step short of the business-paramedics getting called to prevent a business-suicide. Likewise, their digital cameras need to be modernized.
Sigma needs help, be it with partners or outsourcing some of the design and manufacturing to someone who actually knows how to build 2009-era digital cameras.
I suspect (and this is pure black-box speculation) there are some old-school executives or founders that are vetoing any attempts at doing things differently. It is time for them to retire and open the way for change!

You knew it was coming…
In the spirit of the 2012 Summer Olympics, Rooster Editors Mick Griffin and Paul Jutras recently teamed up with TBWA\Toronto and Track and Field Flame Artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe to produce two spots for Petro Canada. The spots highlight two Canadian athletes, Judo competitor Sergio Pessoa and Trampolinist Karen Cockburn and their respective parents, explaining that an Olympian's victory is attributed to Mom and Dad too. Ernie and Andrew made the crowds in the stadium look larger than life and completed the story with a head replacement and flashing bulbs. Check out the full spots here.
Red Urban along with Rooster Editor Paul Jutras and Track and Field Flame Artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe recently finished Volkswagen's latest spot "It's This". The client challenged us to revamp a city street, which included removing five large buses. Check it out:
See the full spot here.
Track and Field Flame Artist Andrew Rolfe teamed up with Rooster Editor Chris Parkins and BBDO Toronto for this Toronto Jewish Film Festival spot. Although it looks seamless, Andrew removed large rigs and started a fire to bring this one-take shot to its final state.
Bensimon Byrne and Track and Field Flame Artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe worked on Scotiabank's latest user-generated spots. We gave this guy a wardrobe change without having to reshoot.
Publicis recently teamed up with Track and Field Flame Artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe to finish off Dodge's latest campaign. We made some enhancements to help tell the story in the latest Journey spot cut by Rooster Editor Mick Griffin. Check out the campaign here.
It's "Bring Your Horse to Work Day" at Track and Field!
Strategy has a great article about a few agencies whose work has stood out in the past year.
We feel very lucky to have been a part of so many of the spots in this list.
Congrats to Red Urban for their recognition for Super Sexy CPR, Richmond Optometry, and Volkswagen, and to Saatchi & Saatchi for their work on Wedding Republic, the Tourette Syndrome Foundation of Canada and FITC.
You can check out all of the work on our website here:
The first couple of weeks back from the Christmas break saw Flame Artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe working with the folks at Bensimon Byrne putting the finishing touches on the latest campaign for Scotiabank.
Utilizing both user generated footage, as well as beautiful images captured by director Yael Staav, the campaign can be seen across TV, the internet as well as in cinema.
While the spots do not seem to be very VFX heavy, they did not come without their challenges. Removing flags and logos, and stopping the rain from coming down were just some of the tasks that kept Ernie and Andrew busy.
Check out the final spot:

We've been seeing this spot on-air a lot recently, so we thought we'd give it some attention here.
Flame artists Ernie Mordak and Andrew Rolfe teamed up with editor Mick Griffin and director Neil Abramson to create a fun and visually dynamic spot for the new Chevrolet Sonic.
A lot of work went into bringing stills to life, and cleaning up shots like the one below to put the finishing touches on some already striking footage.
