So there are two kinds of art: the ordinary art - Shakespeare, Dylan, Carroll, Eliot - this is subjective art. Much imagination is involved in it. It is not pure gold. Then there is another kind of art: the Upanishads, the Bible, the caves of Ajanta and Ellora, the pyramids, the statues of Buddha, the Taj Mahal, Khajuraho, Konarak; this is a totally different kind of art, objective art.
The people who created the caves of Ajanta and Ellora knew exactly what they were doing. They were not simply possessed by an idea, they were creating something very deliberately, for some deliberate results.
Picasso is painting in a kind of dream, and the dream is not even very beautiful - it is nightmarish, it is a nightmare. He has to paint it, otherwise it will drive him crazy. Just think! If Picasso were prevented from painting, what would happen to him? He would have gone mad. He would not have been able to contain all these nightmares. When he painted these nightmares he was finished; it was a kind of self-psychoanalysis. That is the very foundation of psychoanalysis.
What happens in psychoanalysis? You bring all that is hidden in your unconsciousness to the surface, you relate it to the psychoanalyst. He listens attentively, passively, patiently. Once you have related it from all the possible angles it evaporates from your being, you are unburdened. Now psychoanalysis has found this too - that art can be a good therapy, therapy through art. In fact, that has always been so. Picasso would have gone mad if he had not painted. That's exactly what happened to van Gogh, another great painter. He went mad, because he was so poor he could not manage to purchase canvases, colors, brushes to paint. He was given enough money from his brother so that he could live, exactly enough so that he could live, not a single pai more. And what was he doing for years? - for four days of the week he would eat and three days he would fast and save money to paint. He went mad. He could not paint all that was clamoring, boiling in his being; he was sitting on a volcano. Lightnings were happening to him, and he could not unburden himself. They went on being accumulated inside. First he went mad, then finally he committed suicide. It was too much to live.
And that has been felt by poets, painters, sculptors down the ages - that they feel possessed by a demon, by some unknown spirit which forces them to write. They have to write; they cannot deny it, they cannot escape from it. Unless they fulfill it they will not feel free. This is subjective art.
A mystic also creates. Buddha creates by speaking; he sculpts in words. He creates parables, stories, weaves stories within stories, brings insight into the world, but this is not a kind of possession. He is perfectly at ease. He can be silent if he decides so, he will not go mad. And he knows exactly what he is doing; that's why it is called objective art. He knows what he is doing, he knows what it will do to people. He knows if this particular thing is meditated upon, this will be the consequence of it. It is utterly scientific.

Getting zapped by stun gun which emits 50,000 volts is no walk in the park. But what if you could casually stand there, take a stun to the chest and not think twice about it. Thor Shield, a polyester fabric, is designed to do just that, and is currently being incorporated in military and law enforcement clothing – sorry, not available for the consumer market. G2, the company that manufactures the conductive material, indicated that what makes the polyester material effective is that it's bonded to a conducted material that loops the electricity, and essentially sends the electricity back to the gun. The designer of the Thor Shield, Greg Schultz, brainstormed the material one evening while watching a program on Stun Guns – course it helps that he spent years as an engineer building lighting detection systems that are placed near roller coasters and other large structures susceptible to lightning strikes.
Check out the video of the material being be tested here.

Here are two more new titles for bedtime: My Dad is Big and Strong, But . . . : a Bed Time Story by Coralie Saudo and Bedtime for Monsters by Ed Vere. Both are charming with a funny twist at the end. You have to check them out. Because they are both brand new to San Jose Public Libraries, you will find them on our new picture book display pyramids.
Looking for something different? Ever thought about books combining ancient Rome, magic, and big scary monsters? Jim Butcher wrote the gripping Codex Alera series just for you. The setting is a classic low-tech fantasy world (unlike the author's Harry Dresden files, recommended in an earlier blog). But don't think this is just another Middle-Earth rehash. It's not. Aleran society in the series is based on ancient Roman culture, including challenges to the throne, but there are other fascinating people with their own cultures, too, including a second hominid race, the Marat, and another of large wolf-like creatures called Canim. Aleran political intrigue complicates the plot, but Butcher doesn't skimp on thrills, adding border struggles with the Marat and, later, an invasion of Canim. The furies of the title are elementals that humans can use: to move stone, heat water, or fly, for example. The Alerans will need all the strength they can muster, too. A new invader approaches: the vord, a hive-creature with the potential to destroy everything in its path.
The first book is Furies of Calderon, which you can get in print or choose between book on CD, e-book, or downloadable audio, and the series is complete in six books, all available through SJPL-- good news for people who don't like to chew their nails waiting a year or two while the author writes the next book.

Hundreds of trick-or-treaters in Butte participated in the second annual Charlie Judd Memorial Halloween Party.
Judd was known in Butte for hosting Halloween parties every year in low-income areas of the Mining City.
When Judd passed away, the parties stopped.
This year "Butte Celebrations", a group known for its Butte parties, decided to honor Judd by hosting a party at the Butte Plaza Mall.
"He was a great person in the community and we would like to keep the memory of the Halloween party continuing," said Pete Devine with Butte Celebrations. "This is something Butte Celebrations can do and we would like to continue."
Almost 400 people attended Thursday's Halloween party in honor of Charlie Judd.
Butte Celebrations say they plan to continue the Halloween party tradition in the future.

Chapter 21 Reviews
Nuff said.
I woke up in a strange room. The walls, covered in white padding. The floor, off white tile that was padded, also. The ceiling, ridged looking white, with multiple cameras in the corners.
It felt like I was in a mental institute.
I was scared. I think anyone could tell that. Geez, I was kidnapped after hurting my boyfriend by TOUCHING him! Then, after being kidnapped, I was brought to a fucking building that looks like a goddamn mental hospital!!!!!
Not only was I scared, I was insanely pissed off.
I sat in the corner, cuddled into myself. I don't know how long I have been here, I don't know why I'm here, and I don't know where the hell I am!
My whole life has been hell, and now I'm here, my life becoming even more of a shit-hole.
Why was my life hell? Because my mom died when I was 14, I was in a coma for a month because of a car wreck, my dad is abusive, and my sister, Abby, is never going to see me again.
I put my hand on the back of my neck, touching my tattoo of a dragon lying in a circular motion. It's the tattoo I got after my mom died. It is in memory of her, because on it, in little teeny-tiny letters, it says 'Jennifer'.
I always got tattoos when I felt low or depressed.
One time, my dad hit me so hard, that he broke my arm, so I had went, after getting my cast, to the tattoo shop and got the Tardis on the left side of my hipbone.
Then, my friend, Jessica's mom passed away. I got under my right eye, I have a spider web tattoo that starts from my bridge piercing in a circular motion that goes all the way down to the bottom of my nose and over to the other side of my eye. In the webs, I have her mom's name hidden.
I went to court in my mother's place for custody of my sister, Abby, and after I got out of court, I went and got a full arm tattoo on my left arm of everything having to do with Hello Kitty.
On the day of my mom's funeral, which was also the day of The Rev's death, I went and got a tattoo on the inside of my bottom lip that says 'foREVer' in memory of both The Rev and my mom.
On the day my friend, Abigail, got told she had cancer, I went and got, on my right foot on the heel's side, a blue flower with blood on it, because we had designed it together when we were young.
But, there are also some tattoos I got for no reason, like the one on my back of the spider Naraku/Onigumo has on the show InuYasha I am obsessed with. And the one on my outer right thigh of the dark mark. And the one on my right wrist of the flames. And the one on my knuckles that says 'HALLOWEEN'.
But, I usually only get tattoos to make my bad mood go away.
I was tired, so I decided to lie down. I feel asleep the minute my body touched the bed, that was placed in the middle of the room.
When I awoke, I sat up and saw a man wearing all black, except for a red tie, sitting on a wooden chair on the other side of the room, holding a clipboard.
"So, I'm guessing you are my shrink?" I asked, giving him a strange look. He looked to young, to handsome to be a shrink.
[*Well, I wanted to update, so I did! ^-^ I should update soon!

8 key attributes of Bluetooth networking
Bluetooth networking within the Internet of Things
This article is part of a series exploring the role of networking in the Internet of Things.
Previously, we set out to choose the wireless technology standard that best fits the needs of our hypothetical building monitoring and energy application. Going forward, we will look at candidate technologies within all three networking topologies discussed earlier: point-to-point, star, and mesh. We'll start with Bluetooth, the focus of this post.
Bluetooth is the most common wireless point-to-point networking standard, designed for exchanging data over short distances. It was developed to replace the cables connecting portable and/or fixed devices.
Today, Bluetooth is well suited for relatively simple applications where two devices need to connect with minimal configuration setup, like a button press, as in a cell phone headset. The technology is used to transfer information between two devices that are near each other in low-bandwidth situations such as with tablets, media players, robotics systems, handheld and console gaming equipment, and some high-definition headsets, modems, and watches.
When considering Bluetooth for use in our building application, we must consider the capabilities of the technology and compare these capabilities to the nine application attributes outlined in my previous post. Let's take a closer look at Bluetooth across these eight key attributes.

Reverse Engineering, Incident Response, 3D Museum, and Social Prediction
- Reverse Engineering for Beginners (GitHub) — from assembly language through stack overflows, dongles, and more.
- Incident Response at Heroku — the difference between good and bad shops is that good shops have a routine for exceptions.
- 3D Petrie Museum — The Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology has one of the largest ancient Egyptian and Sudanese collections in the world and they've put 3D models of their goods online. Not (yet) available for download, only viewing which seem a bug.
- Sandy Pentland on Wearables (The Verge) — Pentland was also Nathan Eagle's graduate advisor, and behind the Reality Mining work at MIT. Check out his sociometer: One study revealed that the sociometer helps discern when someone is bluffing at poker roughly 70 percent of the time; another found that a wearer can determine who will win a negotiation within the first five minutes with 87 percent accuracy; yet another concluded that one can accurately predict the success of a speed date before the participants do.
Wearable intelligence
Establishing protocols to socialize wearable devices.
The age of ubiquitous computing is accelerating, and it's creating some interesting social turbulence, particularly where wearable hardware is concerned. Intelligent devices other than phones and screens — smart headsets, glasses, watches, bracelets — are insinuating themselves into our daily lives. The technology for even less intrusive mechanisms, such as jewelry, buttons, and implants, exists and will ultimately find commercial applications.
And as sensor-and-software-augmented devices and wireless connections proliferate through the environment, it will be increasingly difficult to determine who is connected — and how deeply — and how the data each of us generates is disseminated, captured and employed. We're already seeing some early signs of wearable angst: recent confrontations in bars and restaurants between those wearing Google Glass and others worried they were being recorded.
This is nothing new, of course. Many major technological developments experienced their share of turbulent transitions. Ultimately, though, the benefits of wearable computers and a connected environment are likely to prove too seductive to resist. People will participate and tolerate because the upside outweighs the downside. Read more…

Javascript on Glass, Smart Lights, Hardware Startups, MySQL at Scale
- WearScript — open source project putting Javascript on Glass. See story on it. (via Slashdot)
- Mining the World's Data by Selling Street Lights and Farm Drones (Quartz) — Depending on what kinds of sensors the light's owners choose to install, Sensity's fixtures can track everything from how much power the lights themselves are consuming to movement under the post, ambient light, and temperature. More sophisticated sensors can measure pollution levels, radiation, and particulate matter (for air quality levels). The fixtures can also support sound or video recording. Bring these lights onto city streets and you could isolate the precise location of a gunshot within seconds.

Disrupting health care with Google Glass
The convergence of hardware and software, and innovation in wearable technology, provides opportunities for disruption.
Editor's note: this article originally appeared on Advanced Health Information Exchange Resources; this lightly edited version is published here with permission.
I joined the Glass Explorer Program and have started using Google Glass with a focus on finding medical uses for this type of wearable computing technology. While I believe it's the analytics capabilities that will allow us to realize the value of health information technology, the convergence of hardware and software — combined with an explosion of wearable sensor technology — is providing powerful opportunities for some disruptive innovation in the health care marketplace and the practice of medicine.
Charles Webster, M.D., got me really interested in the potential with his presentation Google Glass and Healthcare Information and Workflow at the 2014 Healthcare Systems Process Improvement Conference, held immediately before HIMSS 2014. Chuck has been posting about Google Glass for some time, and one of his posts on the HIMSS Future Care blog is well worth reading. Some of the insights from his post include:
"There's lots of interest in Glass use by surgeons, EMTs, and nurses, for hands-free and real-time access to critical information. It's justified. But there's also been negative speculation about threats to patient privacy. What will patients think when they see their physician wearing Glass? In my opinion, it will become just another tool they associate with health care workers (less obtrusive than the head mirror that used to be a symbol of the medical profession). The bigger question should be, what will physicians and others think when they see a patient wearing Glass?"
I decided it was finally time to take the plunge and become a Glass Explorer and got my Google Glass just in time for the annual HIMSS conference to end. For those who have not yet seen Google Glass or don't understand how the technology works, it is basically a computer strapped to your head in the form of a pair of glasses. It has a heads-up display, voice activation and a growing number of apps. Check out the Google Glass homepage to learn more. When you think about having all of the technology of a smartphone, and then some, incorporated into a pair of glasses, it boggles the mind as to the various use cases for health care. I want to outline just a few and then think about what other innovative possibilities this type of technology could bring to the industry. Read more…
Wearing the future
Current wearable computing technology is just scratching the surface — the really interesting tech has yet to be invented.
In an interview at SXSW, Google's Sundar Pichai said something about wearables that I've been waiting to hear. Wearables aren't about Google Glass; they aren't about smart watches; they're much, much more, and these technologies are only scratching the surface.
I've tweaked Apple a couple of times for their inability to deliver a watch, despite years of leaks and rumors. I suspect that products from competitors have forced them to pivot a few times, rethinking and delaying their product. But the bottom line is that I don't care; I don't wear a watch, haven't for a long time, and I'm not about to start. Just not interested.
I'm more interested in Glass, but I've been amazed at how few people are listening to what Google has said about it: it's an experiment. It's not the endpoint, not the product. Given the excitement it has produced, Google would be foolish not to sell it. But really: it's ugly, it's a prototype, it's a mockup. Five years from now, will we all be walking around with Google Glass hanging from designer frames? I doubt it. And I bet Pichai, Brin, and Page doubt it, too. It's an experiment; it will show us what's interesting, and point toward what to build next. It's not the end result. Read more…
Exploring software, hardware, everywhere
A Twitter Q&A follow-up to my conversation with Tim O'Reilly.
Last week, Tim O'Reilly and I sat down in San Francisco and had a conversation about the collision of hardware and software. The fact that digital entrepreneurs see hardware as part of their available palette now is really interesting, as is the way many companies with traditional manufacturing roots are seeing digitization and software as key parts of their businesses in the near future. Software plus more malleable hardware is like a whole new medium for building products and services. We really are on the cusp of interesting times.
As our time wound down, questions were still coming in via Twitter. Since we couldn't get to all of them during the time allotted, I thought I'd try to respond to a few more of them here. Read more…

Your Brain on Code, Internet of Compromised Things, Waiting for Wearables, and A/B Illusions
- Understanding Understanding Source Code with Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (PDF) — we observed 17 participants inside an fMRI scanner while they were comprehending short source-code snippets, which we contrasted with locating syntax error. We found a clear, distinct activation pattern of five brain regions, which are related to working memory, attention, and language processing. I'm wary of fMRI studies but welcome more studies that try to identify what we do when we code. (Or, in this case, identify syntax errors—if they wanted to observe real programming, they'd watch subjects creating syntax errors) (via Slashdot)
- Oobleck Security (O'Reilly Radar) — if you missed or skimmed this, go back and reread it. The future will be defined by the objects that turn on us. 50s scifi was so close but instead of human-shaped positronic robots, it'll be our cars, HVAC systems, light bulbs, and TVs. Reminds me of the excellent Old Paint by Megan Lindholm.
- Google Readying Android Watch — just as Samsung moves away from Android for smart watches and I buy me and my wife a Pebble watch each for our anniversary. Watches are in the same space as Goggles and other wearables: solutions hunting for a problem, a use case, a killer tap. "OK Google, show me offers from brands I love near me" isn't it (and is a low-lying operating system function anyway, not a userland command).
- Most Winning A/B Test Results are Illusory (PDF) — Statisticians have known for almost a hundred years how to ensure that experimenters don't get misled by their experiments [...] I'll show how these methods ensure equally robust results when applied to A/B testing.

NEWARK, NJ - SEPTEMBER 19: Peter Regin #16 of the New York Islanders skates against the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center on September 19, 2013 in Newark, New Jersey. (Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
The Chicago Blackhawks made a minor transaction on Thursday night, acquiring centers Peter Regin and Pierre-Marc Bouchard from the New York Islanders in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.
In corresponding roster moves, the Blackhawks added Regin to their active roster, while Bouchard and Brandon Pirri were both sent down to the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL.
Regin appeared in 44 games with the Islanders this season, scoring twice and adding give assists. Bouchard has nine points (four goals, five assists) in 28 games with the Islanders, but has also spent 20 games with the Isles' AHL affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. In those games, he has six goals and 11 assists.
In all likelihood, the 27-year old Regin will serve as a 13th forward for the Blackhawks moving forward, alternating in and out of the lineup with Michal Handzus and occasionally Bryan Bickell. The move also means that Sheldon Brookbank and Mike Kostka won't have to fill in at the forward spot anymore if injuries or poor play forces head coach Joel Quenneville to change up his lineup.
Regin should be on the ice for the Blackhawks on Friday night when they take on the Phoenix Coyotes in their final game before the Olympic break. Patrick Kane will not play in the game, as he is in Buffalo to attend the funeral of his grandfather, who passed away earlier this week.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Sen. Mark R. Warner will chair a hearing in Washington on reducing fraud and abuse by improved tracking of federal spending.
The Virginia Democrat is chairman of the Budget Committee Task Force on Government Performance, which will hold the hearing Wednesday. The task force provides oversight and recommendations on ways to increase the performance and reduce the cost of federal agencies and programs.
Warner says the federal government does not have an "open and accountable" system for tracking every dollar it spends. He says the hearing will explore the value of fully disclosing those expenditures.
The scheduled speakers at the hearing will include Gerald J. Kane Jr., an assistant vice president for research at the University of Virginia.

Three suggestions
Softer tires or option tires like Indy Car and F1 have
more $$$ and points to win to were it is worth the risk to race hard
varrie formats and shorter races that encourage drivers to race rather than ride until the last 50 laps
« Coca-Cola 600 Quick Facts | Main | Discussion Topic: Sprint Cup Races Are Too Long »
By admin | May 21, 2013
By Richard Allen
Bruton Smith is up to his old tricks. Once again, he is threatening to move a race away from its long standing location to another track. Most likely, this is yet another attempt by the chairman of Speedway Motorsports, Inc. to gain attention and have a zoning law changed or some sort of tax break or subsidy sent his way.
On Monday, Smith said that there is a 70% chance that the fall race held at the Charlotte Motor Speedway will be moved to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. SMI owns both of those tracks but such a move would require the permission of NASCAR.
We've seen this performance more times than most Americans have watched 'Forrest Gump'. In 2012, there was an attempt to get the state of Tennessee to provide funding for a fix of the track surface at the Bristol Motor Speedway. Heck, one time Smith even threatened to move the entire Charlotte Motor Speedway facility to Rock Hill, SC if the city of Concord, NC would not allow him to build the then proposed zMax Dragway.
Trouble is, he seems to often get his way. But there may finally come a time when his gamesmanship doesn't work. But the truth, he shouldn't need it at all.
My advice to Bruton Smith and other leaders in NASCAR is to just shut up and fix the sport if they want better revenues. The seats are not empty at race tracks and television ratings down because of all star formats, lack of race dates in Las Vegas or the relative lack of success of "stars" such as Tony Stewart, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. or Danica Patrick.
Seats are empty because the races are not intriguing enough to cause people to plunk down the money and dedicate the time to come and see them. But as usual, instead of trying to create better racing on the track, NASCAR and the networks have their water carriers out on social media and television shows distracting everyone with discussions of better formats for a gimmick race rather than doing something substantive.
If Bruton Smith and NASCAR want fans to fill those grandstands seats again, they need to think more of fans and less about TV networks and prima donna star drivers who fly in on private jets and stay in million-dollar motor coaches.
To do that, the first thing that needs to happen is the racing on the track needs to get better. This is something that has been addressed on this website many times. But just to briefly re-cap, there needs to be a loosening of the rules that restrict teams so much that everyone is driving virtually identical cars that run the same speed and rarely pass each other.
Also, the points accumulating mentality has to go. Drivers and teams spend too much time worrying about how many points they might lose if they take a risk that fails rather than the win they might gain if that risk pays off.
But along with those on-track adjustments, there must be a change in the arrogant mindset of track owners. In a time of economic crisis such as we have experienced over the past few years, ticket prices have remained high at many tracks for the seats that are worth having.
Sure, there are discounts offered on lousy seats that are so low fans can't see very much. Those "family packs" are offered so that the seats closest to the track are filled to give the appearance of a full house when viewed on television during the tight shots the networks use.
If Bruton Smith wants to move a race or if the most visible media members want to discuss the Sprint All Star Race format, then go ahead. But in the end, neither of those things will solve the problem.
If the leaders of the sport want better revenues, they need to stop talking and start addressing real issues. But fans, don't hold your breath on that.

Three suggestions
Softer tires or option tires like Indy Car and F1 have
more $$$ and points to win to were it is worth the risk to race hard
varrie formats and shorter races that encourage drivers to race rather than ride until the last 50 laps
I believe,Rich, why not offer more "Home" Races? I don't mean from the couch, but, why not offer Hickory, Bowman Gray, Orange County, Rockingham, Greenville Pickens, Myrtle Beach, and Gresham. Too, with you being an East Tennessee Native, I want to see the Irwin Tools Night Race Week be brought up as the last race Pre-Brickyard 400 and a Good Sponsor and Good Sponsor Name would bring up 70,000 More People Regionally to East Tennessee. From Lexington,Roanoke, Atlanta, Knoxville, Winston Salem and Greenville Pickens to name a few. That few would help resellout Bristol Again and I want the Atlanta Race be before the Coke Zero 400 and it would help demolish the Gilligan Concrete.
Rich, everything you say is true and I wholeheartedly support it. However,
While Bruton and others, BZF perhaps, are only worried about the short term - just heard a spokesperson for a conservative think tank discussing the "millionals" (spelling) one of the points was how they are turning away from the automobile. What does that portend for the future of motorsport?
This is way too relevant. Everyone on top talks about how much better the sport is getting, when from the stands not much seems to have changed. The Gen6 was supposed to be a HUGE step forward but unfortunatley hasn't delivered upon those expectations. Goodyear has failed, and the track selection/schedule is an absolute joke. Don't let Bruton see or else he may work to see your website
Smith is nothing more than a snake oil salesman!
Bruton Smith is a piece of S#*T! He is the biggest deuche bag on earth. His way of thinking has gotten the sport in the problems their in right now. He and Nascar are so out of touch with reality. I don't feel they really care about the sport, they just want money, eventhough we are sufering through a very tough economy. The guy F-ED up Bristol!! That should tell you what kind of genius he is.
Your preaching to the choir Rich.
I used to be quick to jump into conversations like this and offer suggestions as to what would make things better. Recently, I've backed away from that. There are so many things wrong/broken that I don't even know where to start.
Great article, Rich. It's a shame that the people who should read it - NASCAR's management and the track owners, maybe even some of the owners of the teams AND the drivers - won't.
Bruton will continue to demand his way or the highway, it's what he does and he's been successful at getting his own way most of the time. Heck, ISC got a 2nd race at Kansas because they put a casino there. Whoopee!
The fans get thrown little sops to try and distract them but I think that is working less and less. If it was successful, people would be at the track and watching on TV and they aren't.
I'd like to see it fixed because I miss the "fun" that following NASCAR used to produce, but I'm not expecting a thing out of the current managment, track owners or drivers.
Well, look at the bright side…..Bruton Smith ain't no spring chicken! He'll be in a nursing home before long or have a flock of nurses attending him in his castle and we can all gripe about his replacement!
Good article Rich and you hit the nail on the head. I'm sick and tired of Smith's antics as well as BZF's bazarro world he calls reality.
I've been going to NASCAR races since 1964 starting at Bowman Gray, Charlotte and North Wilksboro. NASCAR racing today is just plain boring.
This is the first year since they started broadcasting races, that I haven't watched a single race. I listen to them on MRN or PRN if I feel like it, but the networks show more commercials than they do racing.
And I'm damn sick and tired of the Waltrip brothers.
You want to go to a good show? Go to your local track or better yet go watch the World of Outlaw winged sprints if they come to your area. Now that's a show!
You pretty much hit the nail on the head Rich! But, I think the only time you will see any changes from Nascar, is when the TV money dries up, and it doesn't look like that's going to happen. I still believe the lack of interest comes from the "Chase" and the constant talk of it. I go to see a race, not see who gets enough points to get in the Chase.
Great article and great commentors. Smith first drew my ire when he bought and closed North Wilkesboro. A couple of years ago when I stupidly attended the farce that was the Inagural Kentucky race, I vowed that I would never give Bruton Smith(…no adjetives required beyone the elloquence of the previous commenters) another dollar of my hard earned money.
There are several great ideas here: End the Chase and focus on 'the Race'; take the camera/microphone away from the Waltrip brothers who shamelessly pimp their sponsors and relentlessly kiss the arses of the folks making the bad decisions; go back to the smaller markets like IRP and North Wilkesboro;
Finally, let's have some more 'out of the box' thinking, the idea of the trucks racing on the dirt at Eldora is brilliant.
If there's any good news about the way NASCAR has changed in the last couple of decades is that they have driven me back to my local tracks where there is still racers and racing.
Right on Rich! The problem is the product. In addition to softer tires, less downforce, easing of rules, etc., Nascar needs to cut the distance on every single race to where it fits in a 3 hr time window. Nobody has the patience, whether it be live or watching on TV to devote 4 - 5 hrs on a sporting event. The old school will cry for a while but after a year nobody will complain because the racing will be better.

A classic example of the straw-man argument. Firstly, there has never been a relationship between football and religion, so starting with that straw-man argument negates the entire argument. Your problem is with players who refuse to abide by secular political correctness despite being notable professional football players. These religious actions fly in the face of the secular minded who can't stand it that people of faith disagree with their non-faith ideologies.
"This is intended to take the sting out of ", yeah I missed a word up there.
Secularists want us to compartmentalize so they can then point out the hypocrisy of our lives and our actions. This is all intended to sting out of the hypocrisy of their own lives and actions, in which they call for freedoms of their own speech/beliefs while at the same time dictating the speech/beliefs of others. Liberals and Secularists can't abide their contradictions between what they know and believe is true, when other equally intelligent people fundamentally disagree with them. How can liberals and secularists be right if they can't get everyone else to agree to with them?
In response to:
As others have noted. Fully automatic weapons are already banned. Background checks for purchases is already required. And it is already illegal for criminals to have them. What we do not have are laws banning guns from people who are not yet legally considered mentally ill, or have not yet committed a crime. We do not yet control the transfer of guns from private individual to private individual (something that is totally legal in context of private property), but Obama will soon push through legislation with the help of people like you who don't truly understand the consequences in context of private property rights and basic constitutional liberties.
In response to:
... so. How many people are aware that in the Bio-research field(s) in which Biological Safety Cabinets are used the cabinets are designed with UV radiating lamps (fluorescent light bulbs) that allow the UV radiation to escape the bulb. This is a "decontamination" method used to "kill" biological organisms in context of decontamination. Think about it folks. The same Fluorescent technology used in our home light bulbs-tubes is the same technology used in Biological Safety Cabinets for decontamination. Only difference is the phosphor coatings of the respective bulbs that are supposed to protect our homes from the UV radiation.
Three of those rifles on that Townhall cover pick are BB-guns. Someone just snaked some picture not knowing what they were looking at.
BTW the Townhall cover photo shows one classic/historic Muzzle loader that should probably be in a museum, 3 BB-guns, and one semi-auto rifle. If someone was going to give me a $100 for an old BB-gun then, yeah, I'd probably turn it in too.
Do people realize they could have legally sold those guns for anywhere form $300 to $800 or more depending on the make and model? LA relaly ripped them off.
In response to:
Hey Michael Moore, you're fat because you eat to much. Maybe we should outlaw food?
In response to:
Baloney. Cowards that engage in these mass-shootings target the schools because they know they are undefended. Notice they don't go attacking schools that have some manner of defense plan such as those schools employing security or off-duty armed cops. Armed cowards like these won't attack a school wherein they know someone is there that will shoot back.
In response to:
Funny how the left is so adamant about defending the 1st Amendment and so quick to attack the other Amendments. It's kind of like demanding we obey the 1st Biblical Commandment, while at the same time demanding we ignore the other 9.

In 2012 Microsoft help the #1 spot for corporate brand perception in Japan. This year Microsoft has fallen to third and Apple has gained the #1 spot for the first time. Google has also moved from 8th to 5th. According to Nikkei Research: Apple saw a "greater willingness of businesspeople to recommend its products. And the U.S. company continues to rank high in "originality and brand premium." The iPhone is selling well in Japan and the trend is expected to continue with the iPhone 5S. More businesses and consumers are willing to recommend Apple products right now in Japan. The No. 2 spot went to a Japanese company, Yamato Transport, a home delivery service. Microsoft has a lot of work to do, but with the purchase of Nokia and increased innovation in the hardware space I believe Microsoft can regain the top spot when annual survey is done again next ...Read More →

Tickets For Remaining 2013 New Jersey Devils Games
The bar wasn't set very high this year following a disappointing 2013 campaign for the Devils. Not many fans believed the team would win a championship with Jaromir Jagr, Michael Ryder and Patrick Elias up front. They might have had a chance if this were 2005.
In Jagr, at least, they've gotten more than they asked — or paid — for. The 41-year-old Czech's salary is only $2 million against the cap and then another $2 million in performance bonuses, which are wise to impose when you're dealing with an older player who, the year before, seemed to lose steam as the season wore on.
Jagr, though, is leading the team in points, which either says something about the Devils or proves that Jagr is newly invigorated.
Another major free agent acquisition, goaltender Cory Schneider, who said he was "shocked" to be traded to the Devils from Vancouver in the offseason, hasn't exactly lived up to expectation, nor has he played the lion's share in net. The Devils are, in fact, the NHL's oldest team, and Schneider has been forced to share net time with NHL legend, 41-year-old Martin Brodeur. It should disturb the Devils front office that the man they traded the number nine draft pick last season for is now discontent being on a team that isn't letting him do his job every night.
Sure, the Devils are not the Sabres, who've only scored a pathetic 48 goals this season, but the team still ranks near the bottom in the league in goal production. Their 69 put them at #27 in the league.
Still, New Jersey plays a stifling style of defensive hockey and actually owns the league's third best penalty kill. If only they could get younger on offense…
Here are the Devils remaining home games in 2013. The average price for New Jersey Devils tickets at the Prudential Center this season is $98, which is down 23 percent since opening night.
- 12/14 vs Lightning - Avg $70 | Get-in: $22
- 12/18 vs Senators - Avg $57 | Get-in: $13
- 12/20 vs Ducks - Avg $77 | Get-in: $25
- 12/27 vs Blue Jackets - Avg $96 | Get-in: $28
- 12/31 vs Penguins - Avg $124 | Get-in: $35

My Edible Escape: A Bowl of Mussels
I grew up in Minnesota, Iowa, and Illinois - in short, corn country. Serious corn country. I didn't see the ocean until I was 10 and didn't eat much fresh seafood until I moved to Boston in my 20's. At first, I was hesitant to try anything beyond seared white fish. Lobsters were intimidating. Scallops were a complete mystery. Shrimp just seemed odd. And then I had my first bowl of steamed mussels.
What really drew me to mussels was the whole experience of eating them. Picking up the purple shell, scooping a bit of broth, slurping out the sweet, tender meat. Even repeatedly wiping your fingers on the napkin seems like a crucial part of the experience. It's so tactile and sensual and all-consuming. For the space of that one bowl, you can do nothing else but eat.
A bowl of mussels has seen me through a lot. It's what I order when I'm eating alone and just want to sit quietly with my book and a glass of wine for an hour. I've eaten them with friends, all our hands reaching toward the bowl as we laugh and talk. I've used the dish to set new friends at ease. I ate mussels the night before a big job interview and had another bowl in celebration when I got the offer a few weeks later. And once after a particularly heart-wrenching break-up, I ate a bowl of mussels nearly every day for a month before I was able to pull myself together and move on.
Lobsters aren't quite so scary anymore, and now I'll eat all the scallops off of my plate and yours, too. But for sheer comfort and belly-rubbing satisfaction, there's no replacing a bowl of mussels. No matter what, I'll always come back to mussels.

I feel the same way. I grew up in the Seattle area and was raised on clams and adore them, along with oysters but I came to mussels relatively late. I'm making up for it now. I find I eat them anywhere I can trust them (living in Texas now, their quality isn't always assured...). There's an Indian place in Austin that does amazing green curry mussles and I recently went home for a visit and had bowl after bowl of mussles, in pernod, garlic broth, simply steamed, on and on. Moules frites is my favorite dish when in Paris, and mussles are great on the grill too.
I generally dislike seafood. I'm only just beginning to eat shrimp again. And yet, every time I see them, read about them or hear of them, I want to eat mussels. I should give in and eat some soon.
I love mussels! There's this place in Philly called Monks that cooks them in all different kinds of savory, slightly spicy broths and serves them in a big pot, with another big pot for the empty shells. They have lots of Belgian beers on tap, of course.
There's nothing better on a summer evening than a big, steaming pot of mussels and a cold pint. And shellfish is good conversation food too.
Squirrely, I'm i Austin as well and love mussels! Will you shair your green curry source?
I love mussels, too. Your post reminds me of a story my husband told me other day about seeing a whole lobster carcass in the garbage when he was a little kid right after his family moved to Montreal. He was terrified because he thought that his new city was home to huge, monster bugs!
Seafood can be odd for the uninitiated but it's worth exploring, isn't it?
I haven't found a restaurant near me that makes great mussels and I've heard that they are pretty simple to make!
Does anyone have a good white wine recipe for a amateur mussel maker?
Get good fresh mussles, clean them and discard any that are open and don't close after a minute or so when tapped lightly.
In a pot large enough to hold all of your mussles with some room to spare, toss some broth or white wine or water and herbs, or whatever liquid strikes your fancy. Add some garlic if you'd like. the liquid should be about an inch deep. Cover, and heat to boiling, then toss in your mussles and steam, covered, for just a few minutes, until the mussles open up. A few won't open, and I've read that you should discard those, as well, but I've also read to just pry them open and eat them anyway. We ate them anyway, and haven't died yet, so I'd say go for it. Dump the whole shebang in a bowl, put an empty bowl on the side for shells, and have at it!
There are ALL SORTS of recipes online, just google "steamed mussles," but this sums up most of them. You barely need to season mussles at all, they're so amazing plain! They great with crusty bread or over plain pasta (buttered or oiled, so it doesn't stick, then pour the extra broth over it!).
hobsy, Clay Pit on Guadalupe. It's on the appetizer menu but add a few pieces of naan and it's a reasonable priced entree. I get it every time and sometimes I even save the broth and cook my own mussles in it the next day (what can I say, I'm obsessed).
I love mussels. But I follow the rule that you shouldn't eat them from May-August (months without Rs) due to potential high levels of toxicity.
From the wikipedia page on mussels:
Although mussels are valued as food, mussel poisoning due to toxic planktonic organisms can be a danger along some coastlines. For instance, mussels should be avoided along the west coast of the United States during the warmer months. This poisoning is usually due to a bloom of dinoflagellates (red tides), which contain toxins. The dinoflagellates and their toxin are harmless to mussels, even when concentrated by the mussel's filter feeding, but if the mussels are consumed by humans, the concentrated toxins cause serious illness, such as paralytic shellfish poisoning. Usually the U.S. government monitors the levels of toxins throughout the year at fishing sites. See Red Tide.
I love mussels! In New Zealand they are so incredibly cheap. 1 kilo mussels is enough to feed 2 adults for dinner and costs less than 1 MacDonald's cheeseburger.
I saved a story from the newspaper about someone traveling in France who was invited to dinner. The hosts had arranged muscles on a board in a beautifully fitted arrangement which was then covered with pinestraw and lit ablaze. then served as appetizers with wine. He tried to do it himself and became sick and then did again and claimed success. There was even a follow up story about returning 20 or so years later and tracking down the hosts to tell them how significant the experience had been to him. They didn't remember him but it turned out well in the end. I want to do this technique but feel a little afraid to try.
Mussels not muscles.

Staffer Beauty Snoop: Associate Photo Editor Karina Dearwood
Written on December 1, 2011 at 11:20 am , by Fitness Magazine
This week, we asked Associate Photo Editor Karina Dearwood to spill her beauty must-haves and secrets for an effortless look:
Describe your beauty style in three words or less: No-fuss and natural!
What are the three beauty products you can't live without? Origins Starting Over Moisturizer with Mimosa, Dior Addict Lip Polish in Fresh Expert and Mally Double Ended Mascara.
What's your beauty routine in the morning? I use Aveeno Baby Wash & Shampoo for a cleanser, followed by my Origins moisturizer. If I'm wearing my hair curly, I load up on the Matrix Smootherapie Leave-in Cream to fight frizz. If it's straight, I give it a couple brushes. I finish with a few coats of mascara and lip gloss then I'm good to go!
At Night? Origins A Perfect World Cream Cleanser (I'm obsessed with this brand!) followed by Finacea Prescription Gel to fight problem areas once I go to bed. My favorite night indulgence is to put on foot lotion followed by fuzzy socks!
Post-workout? I usually exercise in the evenings, so after the gym I'll take a shower and finish up with my nightly routine.
What beauty product or treatment instantly makes you feel good? A blowout at home or at a salon makes me feel ultra-glam!
What's the best beauty tip you've ever received (or thought of yourself)? The key to wearing makeup is to make it look like you're not wearing any at all!

Favorite Find Friday: Mally Evercolor Shadow Stick
Written on November 19, 2010 at 9:15 am , by April Franzino
Due to the nature of our job—trying new products left and right—there are very few that we use day in and day out. The exception? Mally Evercolor Shadow Stick, a twist-up creamy shadow/liner that glides on for an understated smudgy lined look or builds into an easy smoky eye in an instant. We wear the Saddle Shimmer shade, a slightly glimmery bronze, on our lower lashline every single day. It brightens our eyes, makes us look awake and complements whatever we wear on our lids. What's your go-to shadow or liner?

LightBox on Tumblr is a window into the lens of LightBox, a blog by TIME's photo department that explores how photography, video and the culture of images define today's world.
Simon Fung
Grant Cornett for TIME
From Herman Cain's cowboy hat and Stephen Colbert's super-PAC fun pack to binders, Big Bird and bayonets, objects became the visual sound bites of the 2012 election. TIME presents 100 objects that made their debut during this election.
Pictured: Joe Biden Teeth — Since 2008, comedian Jason Sudeikis has played Joe Biden on Saturday Night Live. Sudeikis has been helped by this prosthesis, molded on his teeth and painted by makeup artist Louie Zakarian to match the Vice President's smile. Biden—or Big Daddy Joe, as he's called on SNL—likes to talk, and his gaffes (when he jumped the gun on the President's supportive statement about same-sex marriage, for example) have been a trademark of his time in office. His teeth, however, took the spotlight after the VP debate on Oct. 11, when he smirked and laughed so often at Paul Ryan that his smile took on, in critics' eyes, an aggressive, condescending life of its own.

text: Geodon worked well for managing anxiety, depression,and was a good mood stabilizer. I felt better about myself and was much more optimistic. I would still like to be taking it; however, I developed bradycardia (slow heart-rate) while taking it. At one point, my resting heart-rate was down to 50 bpm. I didn't feel anything from this (i.e. no fainting, weakness, etc), I just happened to discover it during a routine blood pressure check. The problem kept continuing so my pdoc switched me to Abilify 10 days ago. Abilify seems to be helping but does not seem a powerful as Geodon. If you are considering this med, you may want to get a heart evaluation first, just to be safe.

New Bill Would Reduce Misuse of Antibiotics in Food Animals, Science Group Says
Legislation Would Protect Critical Antibiotics for Human and Animal Medicine
WASHINGTON (March 17, 2009) — Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.) introduced legislation today that would curtail the overuse of antibiotics in food animal production and help protect the efficacy of the small number of existing, lifesaving antibiotics. More than 350 groups have endorsed the legislation, including the American Medical Association.
"More and more Americans know someone or have personally dealt with a 'superbug' that has put them in the hospital and required extensive rounds of high-powered medicine to fight it off," said Margaret Mellon, a molecular biologist and director of the Food and Environment Program at the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS). "This bill will help prevent the emergence of such superbugs by reducing the antibiotics used in animal agriculture."
When continually exposed to antibiotics, bacteria develop resistance to the drugs. Adding antibiotics to animal feed in CAFOs (confined animal feeding operations) turn these massive, overcrowded facilities into prime breeding grounds for antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which can move to humans through food, air and water. Then when people get sick from these resistant bacteria, antibiotics are less effective.
"What passes for standard antibiotic use in this country makes no sense," said Mellon, co-author of a report that found animal agriculture accounts for an estimated 70 percent of all antibiotic use in the United States. "Animal producers cannot continue to feed their hogs and chickens the very same penicillin and tetracycline that doctors prescribe for their patients. Using antibiotics as a crutch for crowded, unsanitary conditions at CAFOs ultimately puts human lives at risk."
"Our food system is broken," said Mellon. "Congress needs to work with President Obama to fix it."
[Two recent columns by New York Times' Nicholas Kristof address this issue. Click here for Kristof's March 15 column, "Pathogens in Our Pork," and here for his March 12 column, "Our Pigs, Our Food, Our Health."]

In its continued commitment to interoperability with PHP, the SQL Server Driver for PHP is designed to enable reliable, scalable integration with SQL Server for PHP applications deployed on the Windows platform. The driver is a PHP 5 extension that allows the reading and writing of SQL Server data from within PHP scripts. It provides interfaces for accessing data in all editions of SQL Server starting from SQL Server 2005 (including Express Editions) as well as SQL Azure. It makes use of PHP features, including PHP streams to read and write large objects. With this release, the source code for the driver is available at:
The SQL Server Driver for PHP relies on the Microsoft SQL Server Native Client to communicate with SQL Server. For more information about SQL Server Native Client, visit
the SQL Server Native Client page on MSDN.
The SQL Server Driver for PHP is documented on our
MSDN site including a simple yet complete
example application.
The Microsoft Drivers 3.0 for SQL Server for PHP are PHP 5 extensions that allows for the reading and writing of SQL Server data from within PHP scripts. The SQLSRV extension provides a procedural interface while the PDO_SQLSRV extension implements PDO for accessing data in all editions of SQL Server 2005 and later.
We have published the source code for both drivers on our
CodePlex project site. At this time we are releasing the source code under the Apache 2.0 license. In continuation with our previous policy, Microsoft supports only the Microsoft signed versions of the drivers.

Baseball America is in the process of reviewing every franchise's 2012 activity in the amateur international free agent market. Monday, Ben Badler took a look at the Marlins. It should come as no surprise the Marlins were not especially active.
The current signing period opened on July 2, 2012 and closes on June 15. Under the terms of the new collective bargaining agreement, each team could spend $2.9 million on international players. As Baseball America pointed out in its review of the new rules, teams potentially could spend as much as $3.2 million before incurring penalties for going over the pool amount.

meehawl: The other mp3 player makers never really figured out that "less is more". They killed a lot of their 3rd party potential by bundling so many accessories with their players.He speaks the truth- I like my iPod precisely because it's clean, elegant, and simple. I don't want 30 extra buttons that jut out at odd angles and make the device too bulky for my pockets. I like that it's slim, regularly shaped, and does everything I need from it- play music- exceedingly well. It syncs up seamlessly, and I don't have to worry about it- it just works.
wolfdaddy: I'm just pissed that I bought my 60GB iPod six days ... six frickin' days!!! ... before the 80GB model came out.Sadly, he also speaks the truth. I know why they don't tell you about these things, but it pisses me off to no end. At least in my case, my 60GB had two months' of use before the 80GB were announced... and since I was migrating from a 15GB, I still have a lot of space to fill before I feel that pinch again.

Can we replace current materials by abundant lighter alternatives?
Imagine ceramics could replace metal as material? The weight of cars and buildings would immediately be reduced, resulting in much less energy consumption. Let alone, count the savings because of abundant availability of basic resource for ceramics, sand.
I understand at NASA teams were succesfully over the years able to reduce the weight of spaceshuttles, partly by thinking on used materials. As every gram going to space, cost a fortune on energy.
I simply wonder - potentially in my ignorance - are there inventions we could use to replace traditional materials by more abundant alternatives to make a leap, like NASA did, towards less energy use and cheaper cost of materials for societal benefit. In parallel thus helping reducing ecological footprint.
Look forward to any comments - curious to learn together. A lighter world - easier to place those 9 billion people in 2050?

By Jennifer Emert - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) - A proposed $60 million project could bring Broadband Service to 21 south Georgia Counties.
The project would be paid for with stimulus money, and the Southwest Georgia Regional Development Center believes there's strength in numbers.
That's why today they asked Dougherty County Commissioners to join the coalition. WALB news Ten's Jennifer Emert joins us live in the newsroom with the details.
Right now just 30% of Dougherty Countians have access to Broadband High Speed Internet Service, a necessity for many businesses.
The Southwest Georgia Regional Development Center made the pitch for the Regional Stimulus Broadband Wireless Project that would provide broadband service that's for nearly two dozen counties outlined in this map. What makes this project viable is having all of those counties working together.
If developed it could mean better educational opportunities for local schools, health care opportunities, access to information for law enforcement in their cruisers, but typically an area like southwest Georgia wouldn't get an opportunity like this.
"Normally a business such as an AT&T or some other large corporation wouldn't do this kind of Broadband, wireless project in our area, the poverty rates are too high and the density rates are too low and there's just no way to make money so we have an opportunity," said Wes Smith, Albany Assistant City Manager.
"When the project is built out completely we will reach 95% to 97% of the 423,000 people in that 21 county region," said Dan Bollinger of the Regional Development Center.
The specifics to apply for the project will be released in the next several week, and those involved expect there could be a 20% match for local governments. The good news is that match may have already been met.
That's because Water, Gas, and Light has been laying fiber lines in areas along with other utilities and that work over the last year could be counted toward that match so it may not cost local government anything.
The proposal will be presented to city commissioners later this month. But city leaders have already been involved behind the scenes.
They've had their lobbyist contact Congressman Sanford Bishop's office to push for the project in Washington.

Maybe I should check out her show tonight." Yes, Sandra was fabulous as she always is, but Katherine Heigl and Ellen Pompeo gave their best performances, by far.

Wild signs Cuma; 17 Elite League players taken in Draft; Best of the RestPosted on July 10th, 2009 – 7:55 AM
By Michael Russo
As I mentioned yesterday, the Wild has signed Tyler Cuma to a three-year, $2.625 million contract plus standard entry-level contract bonuses. If he doesn't make the team in the fall, the contract slides a year, as does his seven-year free-agent clock.
"We are delighted to have Tyler Cuma as a member of the Minnesota Wild organization," said Assistant General Manager/Player Personnel Tom Thompson. "He possesses all of the attributes necessary to be a quality defenseman in the modern day NHL. Tyler is an exceptional skater, both forward and backward. He is intelligent, aggressive and poised. From watching him at our summer development camp, it is clear that he has made a complete recovery from last season's knee surgery."
Cuma, 19 (1/19/90), was the Wild's first-round pick (No.23 overall) in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. He recorded nine points (1-8=9) and 27 penalty minutes in 21 games for the Ottawa 67's of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) in 2008-09. Cuma, who participated in the Team Canada World Junior Selection Camp last season, underwent season-ending knee surgery in February. The 6-foot-2, 192-pound Cuma has posted 60 points (8-52=60) and 141 PIM in 143 career games over three seasons in Ottawa. Cuma earned a gold medal with Team Canada at the 2008 IIHF Under-18 World Championships collecting four points (1-3=4) in seven games. He was named Ottawa's Rookie of the Year in 2006-07 after posting 19 points (3-16=19) in 63 matches.
In the meantime, here's a look at the Best of the Rest. You'll see guys like Alex Tanguay, Jason Williams and Mike Comrie still available. Wait a little more and somebody might be able to get Tanguay at a bargain price. On the blue line, Martin Skoula (most games of any NHL defensemen his age or younger) and Marc-Andre Bergeron (62 career goals, 14 last year). Think Skoula becomes a Devil if Jacques Lemaire goes there? Did the Devils hire a coach while I've been gone???????
Also, I meant to throw this on the blog after the Draft, but I forgot.
A record 17 former players from the Upper Midwest High School Elite Hockey League were chosen in the National Hockey League's Entry Draft, held June 26-27 in Montreal.
Nick Leddy of Eden Prairie (#16, Minnesota Wild) and Jordan Schroeder of the University of Minnesota (#22, Vancouver) were first-round selections, with the remaining players chosen in subsequent rounds. The NHL draft consists of seven rounds and was conducted over two days.
Edina's Zack Budish (#41, Nashville) was chosen in the second round, while Ben Hanowski of Little Falls (#63, Pittsburgh), Josh Birkholz of Maple Grove (#67, Florida), Troy Hesketh of Minnetonka (#71, Edmonton), Dan DeLisle of Arden Hills (#89, Chicago) and Mike Lee of Roseau (#91, Phoenix) were chosen in the third round.
This is the second consecutive NHL draft in which the Elite League reached double-digits in the number of players selected. Last year 10 Elite League alumni were selected, including four in the first two rounds
In addition to their first-round selection of Leddy, the Minnesota Wild reached into the Elite League for two other players, Swedish forward Alexander Fallstrom (#116) and Finnish winger Erik Haula. Both Fallstrom and Haula competed for the Shattuck-St. Mary's team in the Elite League, the eventual champion of the Bauer National Invitational Tournament which culminates league action.
"We want to congratulate all of our players who were selected," said Elite League Commissioner and founder John Russo. "The Elite League coaches and staff work hard to provide young hockey players with an opportunity to showcase their skills in front of scouts and college coaches, and the 2009 NHL Draft is a real tribute to our league, and to the dedication of these players."
The Upper Midwest High School Elite Hockey League is a non-profit hockey league designed to provide high-level competition supplementing the regular high school hockey season. For more information, and draft-day updates, visit the league's website at www.hselitehockey.com. The league's 2009 season will begin in September.

I couldn't find the pasta so I substituted cheese tortellini. It was fantastic!
Orecchiette with Roasted Peppers, Arugula, and Tomatoes
Photo: Becky Luigart-Stayner; Styling: Cindy Barr
Pasta dishes are perfect for Christin Holcomb and her husband, who try to avoid eating leftovers: She cooks only as much as she needs and can vary the ingredients and amount depending on the number of guests. Holcomb created this recipe after looking for a new and healthful way to present her favorite pasta, orecchiette. Instead of a heavy, creamy sauce, the flavors are kept light and bright with fresh summer produce and a tangy vinaigrette. She opted for colorful bell peppers, but choose your favorite in-season vegetables.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 3/4 cups pasta mixture and 2 tablespoons cheese)

- 4. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 teaspoon garlic; cook 30 seconds. Add bell peppers and tomatoes to pan; cook 4 minutes or until tomatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
- 5. Combine remaining 3/4 teaspoon garlic, vinegar, and next 5 ingredients (through black pepper) in a small bowl; stir with a whisk. Add pasta and oil mixture to bell pepper mixture in pan; toss well to coat. Cool slightly. Stir in arugula. Top each serving with cheese.
- Wine note: Fresh summer vegetables come together in Orecchiette with Roasted Peppers, Arugula, and Tomatoes, making it a good candidate for a dry rosé wine. With berry and Bing cherry flavors and bright acidity, Bonterra Rosé 2008 ($14), from California, is a great example of how rosé complements the acid and fruitiness of tomatoes. This wine also has a slightly herbal edge, reminiscent of the dish's herbes de Provence. --Jeffery Lindenmuth

Am I doing something wrong, or will the saw just not work with the carbon fiber poles?MattBud - Do you have the Alpine CF poles or the CF poles? I haven't tried taking the handles off to insert into the saw. I was trying to put the lower section of the pole into the saw, and it doesn't fit. Thanks,Matt
