Universities exist for a simple yet profound reason: to create new knowledge through research and discovery and to pass on knowledge to the next generation. It is also the duty of every university to prepare its students to become engaged and contributing citizens. In the 21st century, this task takes on new meaning.
The great compression of our world—a consequence of the spread of technology and information, the interdependence of economies, the transnational nature of major human challenges, and an increasing embrace of diversity—will only accelerate. We already see evidence of the emergence of a set of global "idea capitals," magnets for talents and creativity. To help you become citizens of this world, you will have one of the greatest opportunities available to an NYU undergraduate—the chance to pursue international study.
Just as NYU's founders chose in 1831 to move education out of the ivy tower to be "in and of the city," NYU is now "in and of the world" in a way that defines and exemplifies something that has not existed before: a global network university.
No university has a greater global presence. NYU leads all universities in students studying abroad; over 40 percent of our undergraduates now study abroad, and each year the number increases. In September 2010, NYU opened NYU Abu Dhabi, an audacious step in higher education: the first comprehensive liberal arts and science campus to be operated abroad by a major American research university, offering a complete NYU education to undergraduates outside of New York City and from around the world and creating another "portal campus" to gain access to this dynamic, global network university.
In 2013, the first 300 students (half from China and half from the rest of the world) matriculated on NYU's newest degree-granting campus, in Shanghai. Students at NYU Shanghai have a unique opportunity to reflect upon the role that great cities play in human progress, and upon the interdependent relationship between China and the rest of the world.
Our newest international study center recently opened in Washington, DC--the 11th of our international academic centers, which also include Accra; Berlin; Buenos Aires; Florence; London; Madrid; Paris; Prague; Sydney; and Tel Aviv. Even our curriculum is changing to reflect both the desire and the need for our students not only to attain an education but also to become world citizens: two new globally oriented undergraduate majors are being offered this year as NYU more fully integrates international study into its academic programs.
Under the umbrella of Arts and Science, the Global Liberal Studies Program merges our premier liberal studies curriculum with experiential learning and an intensive intellectual experience abroad. The Business and Political Economy Program at the Leonard N. Stern School of Business combines course work in business, politics, and economics with integrated study at four global locations—New York, London, Shanghai, and Washington, DC.
This unequaled global network allows you to study with faculty and students around the world with an anchor in New York City, the first truly international city—a place where, for example, almost all countries of the world are represented in the public school system by their native speakers. We give you the chance to experience the world in miniature here in New York. And the next step is, of course, to make it possible for you to also experience the world firsthand. I invite you to consider not only how NYU's global network can serve you but also how the global network university can prepare you to be of service to the world.
We are actively reaching outside our comfort zones, confronting difference, and challenging our preconceptions of how the world should be. For example, NYU students enrolled for a semester of study in China are interns at global companies headquartered in Shanghai. In London and Prague, NYU students study acting and film-making with some of the great theater companies of Europe, and in Accra as part of their course work they learn as supervised teaching assistants in local middle schools. An NYU Paris student wrote a research paper on the history of African Americans in Paris and their experiences as expatriates in the French capital while an NYU Prague student interned at Human Rights Watch, gaining exposure to nonprofit management and research-based activism. Stern School of Business students volunteered their time and energy in Costa Rica during winter intersession as part of Stern International Volunteers, a program that complements the school's four-course, social impact sequence. Silver School of Social Work students regularly travel to Tanzania during their winter and summer breaks in order to work at the Tanzania Children's Rescue Center, a safe haven for children founded by an NYU undergraduate.
The examples of how our students work and learn globally are endless.

New Jimmy Page Music On The Way
Wednesday, October 24, 2012
Jimmy Page is prepping new music, which might be released before the end of the year. Gibson.com reported that during a chat with BBC Radio, Page said, "I'm just looking forward to making some music and surprising people with it. It won't be just teaming up with lots of people who are (big) names. I've got an idea of something which I've had for a long time and now's the time to do it."
Page remained ambiguous when talking about the still-unnamed project, saying: "I have got other ideas that have been nagging at me for a long long time, I think the way to present music is same picture different frame, and sometimes this frame is quite radical."
Jimmy Page feels that the 2007 reunion gig setlist as featured in Celebration Day reflects the best of Zeppelin's back catalogue: "In the '70s when we were touring, y'know, the sets would be a reflection of what we had done in the past, and then what was there on that latest album. On this we had a chance to have a real retrospective of the career. That's why we arrived at the first number being 'Good Times Bad Times,' which was the first track of the first album and then let's see what goes on from there. I think we made a pretty good choice right across the board in the time that we had. Y'know, we paid good attention to it and the pacing of the set was interesting, because with no warm-up gig, we had to get it right."

It's all about the gold…earrings. And a golden retriever named Rocco (Lana Bramlette's dog).
A decade of devotion, dedication and determination has paid off for Lana Jewelry, currently celebrating its 10th anniversary.
Famous for her striking upside down earrings (which she's patented), jewelry designer Lana Bramlette has sold over 300,000 pairs of "large upside down hoop" earrings. Offered in yellow, white or rose gold with the option of diamonds, sapphires or emeralds…you can't go wrong. Similar to "collecting" shoes, jeans or sunglasses, it's easy to accumulate several pair of Lana's magnificent hoops. The main attraction is that the earrings can be worn everyday. Ms. Bramlette shares, "The earrings are beautifully crafted, sexy and modern with an incredible sleek shine that I have perfected."
Ms. Bramlette boasts a busy schedule, spending all of her time taking care of clients first. Lana Jewelry experiences a surge in sells during the holidays, but caters to the Millenial crowd of females ages 18-30 who make frequent impulse purchases throughout the year. No need to search far for Lana's signature earrings in Chicago, they are available at Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom, along with over 300 other stores and boutiques. But wait, there 's more, much more…Lana's jewelry fans in Hollywood include Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Evan Langoria and Rhianna.
Ms. Bramlette designs jewelry best when she is happy. What makes Ms. Bramlette happy? Her husband, daughter, 8 hours of sleep every night (when possible), exercise, Kate Sommervile products and traveling to Miami and St. Tropez. Ms. Bramlette's old Russian philosophy: "Live to work [and play hard] not work to live."
How does Ms. Bramlette give back to the community? Ms. Bramlette is the founder of the Chicago Fashion Foundation, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization, which provides academic scholarships to Chicago-area college students majoring in fashion related studies and coordinates educational programs for the Chicago fashion community.
Pay it forward!

After 187 days, the former Cartersville resident completed his 2,184.2-mile trek, reaching Georgia's Springer Mountain at 12:12 p.m. Along with getting a good night's sleep, Eason also caught up with friends and family this week while staying at his grandmother Catherine Eason's Cartersville home.
"Completing it wasn't really harder than I thought," said the 18-year-old, who attended the fourth grade and was a member of the Cub Scout troop based at Heritage Baptist Church when he resided in Bartow County. "I hadn't given it too much thought. I basically got my gear together and guessed how long it was going to take.
"But one of the hardest parts is just waking up in the morning when it's freezing cold and everything you have is frozen solid and just having to get up and knowing that if you don't do anything, you're going to run out of food. So you don't have any choice but to get up and push through it. [During my trip], I hiked through several tornado warnings, I think, where it's just a torrential downpour and ankle deep water on the whole trail. And other times, you're walking across a half mile of ice uphill."
Starting his trek in Maine, Eason hiked through 14 different states, encountering various wildlife, including 15 turkeys, seven black bears, 70 deer, three porcupines, two black squirrels, three moose and one skunk.
"The thing that I enjoyed most was just the simple lifestyle. You didn't have to worry about anything except walking and the next place you were buying food," said Eason, adding there often were stores within a few miles of the trail. "Some of the highlights — I rode some wild ponies in Virginia. That was pretty fun. I tell other people one of the best parts of the trip was just being around other people that had a similar mindset. We're all out here doing the same thing, sharing similar experiences."
Graduating high school in Winston Salem, N.C., in May, Eason decided to hike the Appalachian Trail after participating in an Outward Bound program the prior year. Venturing out on his own, he met and joined various groups of hikers along the way.
In an email to The Daily Tribune News, Hal Eason listed several of his son's highlights along the trail: "Grilling and eating a large rattlesnake on a skewer — killed earlier that day by one of his team ...; hiking 46 miles in one day, setting foot in four different states (PA, MD, WV, VA); being snow-bound by Sandy; hiking on hands and knees in 2 feet of snow, crawling under the rhododendrons whose branches were weighted down under the snow; catching and riding a wild pony in Grayson Highlands, [Va.]; catching a ride into Gatlinburg on an AARP bus in exchange for telling stories about his journey; escaping from the car of a drunk driver who had offered Bill a ride into town for re-supply; encountering many forms of wildlife, including moose, bears, snakes, and too long a list for me to recite; [and] Thanksgiving Dinner at Shoney's, joined by his college-student brother who took the break to hike with Bill for a couple of days."
Pleased with the cellphone access along the trail, Hal Eason and his wife, Gayle, were able to talk with their son once or twice a week, often posting updates on his Facebook page.
"It's been exciting to see him take ownership of this project from end to end," said Hal Eason, who grew up in Cartersville. "It's been exciting to see him accomplish a huge goal for himself that he had set for himself.
"We deliberately chose to back off and let it be his project and his goal. Whether he succeeded or failed, it needed to be his own volition. So the closer [he got] to the finish line, the more excited we've been to see him achieving something that he had set his mind to."

You know that the Alps range is stunning; imagine the splendor of the areas protected as National Parks from Slovenia and Austria through Switzerland, Germany, France and Italy.
At the eastern extreme of this mighty range are the Julian Alps, where Slovenia and Austria share a border, heavenly scenery and magnificent hiking and skiing country. Triglav National Park is named after Slovenia's highest peak, at just less than 3,000 meters. This area looks as if it's where all the postcard photos are taken: views of craggy mountains draped in dense green forest abound. A "Wow! This is beautiful!" destination for sure. Glacial Lake Bohinj is in the park and is a favorite place for summer water sports and just chilling out.
Across the way in Austria: more Alps, more simply awe-inspiring vistas. Nockberge National Park is a high mountain national park carpeted with conifer forests and lovely Alpine meadows. Search for rare orchids as you walk through Gesäuse National Park, where abrupt changes in elevation create dramatic backdrops for your vacation photos. Limestone Alps National Park has one of the largest areas of untouched forest and mountains streams, and in Hohe Tauern National Park watch for what glitters - you can pan for gold!
How about a view of the German Alps from a cable car as you approach Berchtesgaden National Park in Bavaria? You can also see a palace, thermal baths, the fjord-like Lake Lake Königssee and The Eagle's Nest, not to mention trek through fantastic scenery on the well-marked trails. Keep crossing those Alps and next you're in Switzerland, where the Swiss National Park lies on the border with Italy. Established in 1914 and as such the oldest national park in the Alps, Switzerland's only national park is renowned for its abundant animal population; if you're lucky you might see ibexes, chamois, marmots, or northern hares. All this and an excellent interpretive center make it a great national park for families.
Switzerland keeps it simple and successful with one national park called the Swiss National Park,located near the Italian border. Thanks to 80 kilometers of hiking paths, nature trails and excursion destinations for children and families, humans can have as good time in this extraordinary park as the abundant animal population of ibexes, chamois, marmots, northern hares, lizards and innumerable birds for which it is famous.
The Italian Alps are right next-door and offer you a choice of four national parks along Italy's limestone borders with Switzerland and France. The Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park in the Veneto region protects the UNESCO-listed mountains for their extreme gorgeousness. (If you're getting the distinct impression that the Alps are always gorgeous, you are correct; it's one big limestone beauty contest). Lombardy's Stelvio National Park, the largest in the mountain range, lets you take a look at every kind of Alpine terrain known – if you're up for the hike! Val Grande National Park near Milan is truly wild, the largest expanse or untamed territory in the Alps; best to hike here with a guide. Adjoining the French border is Gran Paradiso National Park, where you can watch chamoix graze in alpine meadows while you graze on local delights such as salami and Fontina Dop cheese.
The Rhine, one of Europe's great rivers, brings to mind wine and beautiful landscapes.
Central Europe is eager to welcome you to discover its treasures!
Dramatic scenery, winter sports, the northern lights and the midnight sun, saunas, and reindeer.

We want to live our lives to the full, while keeping our planet healthy and beautiful so our children can do the same. Revolutionising the way we use and produce energy is not only necessary; it is the safest and easiest way to protect our way of life. It's time we chose a clean energy future.
Coal exported from Australia, when burnt, creates more greenhouse gas emissions than every other source of emissions in Australia combined. Right now, Australian mining companies are planning to double coal exports. This drives climate change even harder at a time when Australians are suffering its effects: extreme weather, bush fires, flooding and more. Greenpeace is working to halt the reckless expansion of coal exports by stopping new export terminals proposed for the Great Barrier Reef coast. Read more
Globally, the investment in the renewable energy industry is overtaking fossil fuels like coal. If the world fails to stop the last generation of coal power being, global climate change goals will not be reached. This is good news for people in China and India, where air pollution from coal power stations is killing thousands and sucking vital water sources dry. Greenpeace is speaking out in support of clean energy initiatives around the world by promoting a future that does not rely on fossil fuels for energy. Read more

This Canon 50mm lens features a remarkable ultra-large f/1.2 aperture for an extremely narrow depth of field, letting you shoot close subjects in focus against softly blurred backgrounds. The large maximum aperture also gathers lots of light to give you an ultra-bright view through your viewfinder, and it lets you use faster shutter speeds to "freeze" moving subjects. This lens is ideal for taking great-looking photos at twilight, or indoors without a flash. You'll get precise, silent focusing, thanks to advanced Canon optics and a powerful ultra sonic motor (USM). The lens coating and construction minimize ghosting and flare.

Features Overview: The Canon EF50mm f/1.2L USM lens is an L-series, fixed length medium telephoto lens for Canon EOS cameras. The lens has a high-precision, large-diameter aspheric lens element for excellent imaging performance, even at maximum aperture. The truly round aperture hole gives you the narrow depth of field and soft background blur so loved by photographers. The lens includes the LP1214 Lens Case and the ES-78 Lens Hood. Ultrasonic Motor (USM): The EF50mm lens is equipped with an Ultrasonic Motor (USM) for silent, high-speed auto focusing. Focusing Ring: Regardless of whether you're in manual or auto focus mode, the focusing ring always works. This means you can auto focus on a subject, but manually change the focus by turning the focusing ring. Focus Mode Switch: You can switch between Auto Focus and Manual Focus using the two-way AF/MF switch on the barrel of the lens. Lens Hood: The lens kit includes the ES-78 lens hood to keep unwanted light out of the lens, and protects the front of the lens. The hood can be reverse-mounted on the lens for storage. When installed, the hood adds approximately 1-5/8" to the overall length and 1/2" to the overall diameter of the lens. Optional Filters: The EF50mm lens has a 72mm mounting thread on the front of lens for attaching screw-on type filters.

Ambient humidity vs. RH
Ambient humidity vs. RH
Hi all. First time on the thread. I'm involved in the timber flooring industry down here in Australia (pronounced: Oz-stray-ya), where our standards are yet to catch up to the US. Subsequently, RH moisture testing is a very under-utilized practice at the moment. I look forward to joining the discussions here.
Question, and apologies if it has been asked a million times: I note the instructional video on temperatures having little effect on the RH of the slab. What about the ambient humidity of the area?
A major adhesives manufacturer rep mentioned to me that the highest number of moisture-related flooring failures occurred in a state which is known for its hot, dry climate. This is particularly telling as this area is a much smaller market than the eastern states, with areas known for their higher humidity.
Pardon my ignorance, does this imply that the inherent slab moisture (roughly the same in all locations, give or take differing mixing techniques between concrete layers) will translate to greater RH at the floor covering area, when exposed to a drier hot climate, as opposed to a more humid environment?
Or should it mean that the RH of the slab in a drier, hotter area will decrease more quickly?

RE: Ambient humidity vs. RH
G'Day Mate!!!
Always nice to meet a new fellow from the land of roos. Glad you posted, please pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy!
Concrete and moisture. Let's step back and take a look at the big picture before we get into details. It's really not as mysterious as some folks think it is, you just have to look at what is happening.
When concrete is poured in place, it has a lot of extra water in the mix that helps the workers put it in place and finish it. Even at a low water / cement ratio of .45, the concrete has twice as much water as it will ever need to fully hydrate. So what we have with all concrete slabs is a tendency for moisture in the concrete to want to come out of the concrete allowing the slab to equilibrate with its environment.
Now here's where the environment plays a role. A slab that is poured under water (bridge columns for instance) will not tend to emit water vapor (technically they could due to the heat of the cement reaction, but let's keep this simple for now). The underwater concrete piers are in equilibrium with their underwater environment when they are extremely wet.
A slab poured on a raised deck in the sahara desert where the average humidity is between 3% and 30% will emit water vapor until it is in equilibrium with the environment there.
Concrete poured in more hospitable living climates will tend to equilibrate somewhere around 50% -75% relative humidity.
The amount of moisture in a slab and its predisposition to absorb or emit moisture to equilibrate with the environment varies based on just a few factors. The RH of the slab and the RH of the environment. And of course these two factors change constantly, not just seasonally, but daily, even hourly. Now we can factor in moisture from the ground that slowly moves into the slab, slab porosity, floor covering porosity, temperature variations, I think the list of influences is quite long, but I don't need to worry about all that. Let the scientists work on the technicalities, let us keep our eye on the big picture.
So to answer your question, I would tell you that a slab poured in a drier climate will obviously dry faster than one poured in a damp location, but the slab in the dry climate is doing the same thing the damp climate slab is doing, they are both trying to equilibrate with their environment.
While the damp climate slab may be at equilibrium at 75% RH or 80% RH, the dry climate slab may need to be at a much lower RH before it reduces its push to rid itself of excess water.
Note: I almost said 'before the vapor loss is low enough to install a moisture sensitive floor' but I don't want to muddy that creek.... Here in Beaver Dam, we understand that even with a low vapor emission if we have a high RH pushing moisture, we have a high potential for failure.
And one more point if I may, when we say the temperature has little effect on the RH testing, we need to qualify that statement... put a little asterisk next to it...
RH, relative humidity, is a function of the amount of water in a sample of air and the temperature of the air. Obviously temperature will affect an RH reading. But the ambient temperature swings a room experiences will have little effect on the slab RH reading. What we have found in our area is that slabs poured on grade in a commercial facility generally stay at 67*F to 69*F. If I take an RH reading and my slab is at that temperature, I have a trusted reading, even if the room I'm in is being blasted by a heater temporarily and the air temp is 85.
On the other hand I have refused to allow installation on slabs that read 75% RH but they are very warm, say 85*F. This can happen in multi story structures where heat is being forced directly under the slab being tested. In those cases as the slab cools to the expected operating temperature of 72*F the RH reading will increase.
Sorry I'm so long winded...

RE: Ambient humidity vs. RH
Don't apologise! The devil's in the details. Plus I've been enjoying your work as a spectator for some time, JD. Thanks for the response.
Perhaps I need to go back to school on the meteorology, but I think I understand these alleged failures in the drier climate, if I'm getting my head around it right.
a) Perhaps installers are taking RH readings (in the cases where they even bother) with a higher slab temperature. When the slab cools to what is, presumably, its normal "operating" temp the RH increases and thus the likelihood of a related failure.
b) Or, in your words "the dry climate slab may need to be at a much lower RH before it reduces its push to rid itself of excess water." because the environment's RH is naturally lower. ("push"= vapour emission). So it is emitting more flooring-unfriendly vapour for a longer period before equillibrium with the surroundings, if you'll excuse my child-like layman's terminology.
Should this mean that the required acceptable RH for our flooring neighbours out west where its drier and hotter, should be lower? Or have I still missed something? This is quite possible, as I am Australian, and we have only just graduated from Paul Hogan to Hugh Jackman as our chief ambassador.

Funnily enough the town I was referring to, Adelaide, is "sister city" to Austin, TX. I grew up in Adelaide, and once applied for a job in Austin. No correlation between these two trivialities, nor with the fact that I totally want to come to Austin for that F1 race!
I'd believe that the South Oz climate is much more like Arizona, though. It's pretty hot and dry. Now I live in the eastern states where we have four seasons in one morning. Ugh.

Well it is quite obvious you are an extremely intelligent man Rubensgt40, by the way do you mind if I put your quote on a t-shirt that I can give to my compadres here on the forum??
I believe you have the idea down pat already. Do you have any friends you could bring on the forum?
As for regional differences in acceptable RH levels, I have not experienced such a thing. I do know that 75% is regarded as safe in the states, but I also know it is very safe in the areas I work. I haven't seen problems at 80% and probably never will. Maybe even 85% would work, but one must keep in mind that ignoring the manufacturer's recommended installation parameters will most likely void any warranty on the materials.
RE: Ambient humidity vs. RH
If you get t-shirts printed, send me one
We're in the process of tightening up the standards now. BTW we reference ASTM F2170 in ours (or we will, fairly soon). As I see happens in the US, the more the standards are refined, the more manufacturers get on board and write up their specs accordingly.
At the moment, we are still emerging from moisture content as the testing requirement and formally moving to RH. The hood method is catching on.
After studying this forum (and Wagner's products) that will have to change.

Good question! I am in the area of wholesale to the trade, installers and finishers of Timber flooring. I presume the bigger installers/ timber flooring shops use moisture meters. You wouldn't know it from my vantage point, because we haven't sold a meter in yonks. Having said that, it has never been our core business. That will change, and this is one of many reasons why I'm keen to catch up in the knowledge stakes.
Another, as I said above, is that the AU/NZ standards are moving to RH and improving generally. Bear in mind I'm talking about the Timber Flooring game specifically. General and resilient flooring has always had more active industry association standards etc. We're catching up.
I'd really like to pop over for the ICRI Cert, at least. I think the trade here are drastically behind.

Have you ever heard or seen rh testing in lumber? I found a site that has pics of tiny sensors embedded in lumber. Kinda neat. I hear it is much more accurate than a pin meter.

No, I haven't heard or seen that with lumber. With the wide range of applications for timber generally, I presume the technology that industry is more acute.
Obviously our customer base use timber moisture meters more, pins and resistance. But even then, we don't see many sold.

Well, Carlos, if you were at the shop there'd be two Martins
So how are you doing? Hope you're holding own at least.
Heads up here. I entered the Presley's First Annual Indoor 3D. After the first Qualifier with 31 in class and I'm sitting in 6th place. Mercy! Two more Qualifiers, the Final to determine those that go to the Shoot Off for Champion.

Thanks, Alex.
i did finally see another Martin...in fact it was a red Scepter.
is Shawn Hatem still the pro staff coordinator?
LOL, gee wiz bill, can I be one of your pro staff ??
oh wait you want them to come to you .. not run away
( That was so your kid won't say it LOL)
Yeah the only ones I see anywhere are older pics of the past, even the Nuge is keepin pretty quite on them.
Last thing I read was from 2009 when Laura was a pro staff shooter and shawn became coordinator

'96 Firecat, '66 Herters
Heard Shawn is no longer with Martin.
A little common sense goes a long way, unfortunately it's in short supply!
Carlos, I doubt any sponsored shooters at this time or applications being handed out.
I can remember Martin (I ain't sayin' how long ago) being at the top of the heap for world wins.
Of Martin shooters;
I can remember young Sally Wunderle being 17 times US Women's Champion (what organization and event I don't remember). Last I heard of her, 3 or 4 years ago, she had shoulder problems. I haven't heard of her doing anything of late, but I don't do NFAA events anymore. And I know of Vic Wunderle, but he shoots them things that don't have wheels. Rumor was that Sally was better than Vic. I still have a Vic Wunderle pencil (still unsharpened) from a benefit for his first go at the Olympics. Expensive pencil, but well worth it.
I met John Wheeler at Metro (and you ) in 2010. He went on to set a new record at Vegas the following year. I don't think he did much after and then went Mathews.
Gary Studt I don't remember at all....
Of Illinois, I've known a few Martin Staff shooters. I know only one that shot a lot of Illinois state ASA events. Self sponsored, I did as well as any of them and probably better, but due to being of age to get the job done, Super Senior .

Paula Broadwell says she's returning to her faith
CHARLOTTE (AP) — The reservist whose affair with former CIA Director David Petraeus led to his resignation says she's made mistakes in her past, but is trying to look forward with her family.
News 14 Carolina reports Paula Broadwell attended the annual YMCA prayer breakfast in Charlotte and said the message hit home. Broadwell said the breakfast focused on redemption and slowing down in life and finding purpose.
Broadwell said she grew up in a strong, faith-based family and has decided to return to those roots for strength, as well as serving the community.
Petraeus resigned in November 2012 after acknowledging the extramarital affair, which was exposed after Broadwell emailed Tampa socialite Jill Kelley, allegedly warning Kelley to stay away from Petraeus and Gen. John Allen, the U.S. commander in Afghanistan.

|The new road home, and pumpkin bread recipe.
Pulling Up Roots. Again.
It's been brewing for awhile now- our dissatisfaction with LA and the film business, the slow, dawning realization that living out here is simply not sustainable. Every penny I make goes for rent and bills. The financial pressure is suffocating. And I have no space to paint. Physical space, of course. But also psychic space. The energy of LA is so imposing, so invasive. Someone else's narrative is always intruding. Even if that narrative is only a car alarm. Or a leaf blower.
I can't hear my own voice here.
And so I haven't felt like an artist in a long, long time. I hoped Redondo Beach might be different. But I still didn't have the studio I needed. It was healing to live at the ocean for a year. But again, not sustainable.
My husband and I have been empty-nesters now for seven years or so. Pursuing Steve's mid-life dream of writing screenplays. We've been living like gypsies, in a series of small apartments. But it wasn't always this way. We used to both paint for a living. We used to be homeowners, with a house and a studio, a garden. A family. Steve taught painting for extra income, but we lived off our art. We sold work in galleries, and lived well as artists. I met Steve in a painting workshop. And two and a half years later, he asked me out for coffee.
Art and painting have always been our first bond.
Truth is, these last few years I have missed our "life as artists". I miss having a home, a garden, a private studio. And I told Steve, after visiting New England for our son's wedding last year- I miss New England. I miss the seasons- which connect me to a sense of belonging, connect me to the Earth. I miss New England people.
So we've been talking about this urge for goin' for over a year... the possibility of moving back to the Northeast. We've been waiting for something "big" to happen with one of Steve's scripts- but by now it's clear (he started this venture in earnest in 2006 when he won a screenplay contest that got him a manager; and three independent films are in the can) that it takes years for projects to come to light, that writers are the last to be paid, that writers are being paid less and less.
He's realizing that in the meantime, he needs to balance his long, solitary hours of writing with something more physical- like painting. Painting grounds you. Tethers you to living in the moment, here in the physical world. Perhaps because it is a tactile, kinesthetic action, perhaps because there is a tangible result, immediately, unlike writing screenplays. He feels his work will benefit from balancing the two disciplines.
And if we both want to paint- we need a big studio. And we've looked, out here. But California prices and rents are beyond our reach. Not to mention, the art market here in LA is not exactly clamoring for realistic impressionism, or painterly abstraction. We've visited galleries, strolled art walks, and scoped out work from Culver City to Melrose, from the Miracle Mile to Venice Beach. We both feel we'd be more suited to the East Coast (as we have been, in the past).
So when I discovered an artist link website (after our September Cape Cod visit) a Massachusetts non-profit organization that helps artists find studio space, and found this amazing carriage house art studio in the rural Connecticut town I once lived in...
Darling. It felt like synchronicity...
|Why are we moving? This is why.
And an opportunity to pursue balance. And peace. And live a more authentic life (I don't have to tell you that LA is all about schmoozing, do I?).
I have always wanted to be an artist. As a little girl I drew on everything- and it got me into trouble in school. My frustrated grade school math teacher would send note after note home to my parents complaining that I didn't pay attention. All I did was draw in class. Doodling (his word) all over multipication tables.
After art school, when I was twenty-four and living back home with my parents on Cape Cod (I moved there to help them in their new venture, a gift/crafts shop), I cut out a magazine photo of a New York woman painter, an abstract expressionist in her barn studio. She was barefoot, in jeans, reaching high to brush some blue paint on the top of a six-foot canvas. It was my dream.
I kept that photo for twenty-five years.
The Connecticut barn that now beckons (once owned by a NY abstract expressionist who painted with Helen Frankenthaler) is a big, airy studio- with more space than we've ever enjoyed. There is the requisite neutral north light. Ample storage for (big) paintings. A deep, double art sink. A rustic loft for living (no frills- or real kitchen- but a wonderful claw foot bath tub). And the biggest miracle of all? It is a rent we can afford.
The kitchen? Well. Yeah. It's barely there. But there is an old electric stove. A small sink. And a fridge.
I predict adding to my Crock Pot recipes index.
We'll be there in three weeks.
In the meantime, I have a make-ahead Thanksgiving recipe for you. A huge pumpkin loaf. Bake it. Wrap it. Freeze it.
And Babycakes, it will feed a crowd.
|Karina's awesome new pumpkin bread recipe. Gluten-free.
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Bread Recipe with Walnuts
Originally published November 2012 by Karina Allrich.This recipe makes one big, generous loaf of pumpkin bread. Be sure and use a large loaf pan, preferably ceramic, like this one, for even baking. And if you don't care for walnuts, use pecans.
1 cup sorghum flour
1 cup potato starch (not potato flour)
1/2 cup hazelnut flour
1/2 cup corn flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/4 teaspoons xanthan gum
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup golden brown sugar
1/4 cup cane sugar
1/2 cup organic expeller pressed canola oil
3 organic free-range eggs, beaten
1 rounded cup canned pumpkin
1 tablespoon bourbon vanilla
3/4 cup chopped walnuts* see notes below for options
Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
Line a large loaf pan - preferably a 9-inch ceramic loaf pan- with a piece of parchment paper; the length of the parchment should be above both sides, with enough to grip (this makes it super easy to get the baked loaf out of the pan).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flours, starches, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, xanthan gum, spices and sugars.
Add in the oil, egg, pumpkin and vanilla. Beat for two minutes till the batter is smooth and fluffy.
Fold in the walnuts by hand, using a big spoon or spatula.
Scoop the batter into the lined loaf pan. Smooth out the top. Add a few walnut halves for decoration, if desired.
Feel the pan. If the batter feels cold- allow it to rest for a few minutes and come up to room temperature- this will help with the rise.
Place the pan in the center of the oven and set the timer for 15 minutes.
At 15 minutes, lower the temperature to 350ºF. Bake for 45 to 55 more minutes, until the top is firm and set, and a cake tester inserted into the center emerges clean.
*This is a large loaf- so it takes a good hour, at least, to bake. Every oven is different, and if you are baking in hot weather, your loaf may cook through faster than mine did. As always- keep an eye on it. Test. And get to know your oven (does it run a tad warm- or cool?).
Cool on a wire rack. When the loaf has cooled, loosen the end edges with a thin knife; grip the parchment to gently lift the loaf onto a cutting board.
Remember- a warm loaf is a fragile loaf.
Slice with a serrated bread knife. We grilled our leftover slices in a dab of vegan butter.
I froze half the loaf to have on hand. It freezes beautifully. This would be lovely to make ahead for Thanksgiving.
Makes a large 9-inch loaf.

|Gluten-free pumpkin bread studded with walnuts.
GFG Notes:This is a gluten-free dairy-free recipe.
Here is the ceramic loaf pan I use, at Amazon.com.
I prefer sorghum flour for its soft texture. If you must substitute, perhaps millet flour or certified gluten-free oat flour would be a good choice- if your family eats gluten-free oats (not every celiac can handle oats). I am shying away from brown rice flour for several reasons- including the latest info on arsenic levels in brown rice. If you choose to sub with brown rice flour, the result may be a tad crumbly.
For those not using hazelnut flour, try almond flour or chestnut flour.
I imagine this might work without eggs, but using a replacer may produce a tougher, or denser loaf- and need a different baking time. See my vegan tea bread recipes for guidance.
Option: Cut walnuts to one half cup (or omit). Add in one half cup of dried cherries or cranberries for extra holiday flair.
For more substitution help, please see my guide to baking with substitutions here.

Comments about Nightlife Ess. Run Vest II:
I would rather go for a run in the cold than use a treadmill, so I had to spend some coin to get some decent outdoor winter running gear.
I wanted to have something to put on over any clothes in any season for nighttime running and walking. This works great. It has a dedicated mp3-player pocket and ringlet.

James Hinchcliffe inspects the turn he crashed on last year on the Belle Isle course. Drivers will return for the Dual in Detroit. (David Coates/Detroit News)
Detroit -- Charles Burns has been in Detroit since October. And already he sounds like the CEO to a "Say Yes to Detroit" campaign.
Burns is the general manager of the Indy Dual in Detroit, which runs May 31-June 2 on Belle Isle.
His job is simple, yet complex.
Make sure everyone is safe and security is tight.
Make sure, with the help of hundreds, this year's event doesn't have structural problems like last year's event did, when the track crumbled like burnt toast.
Track must hold up
Here, however, is what Burns might not realize.
When bad things happen in Detroit, they are magnified three-fold.
That's why last year's problems with the track must be the most critical point of Burns' focus.
Last season, the track fell apart so quickly, race officials were out there pulling up synthetic pieces and trying to put the asphalt down.
It was embarrassing.
Hopefully, what race officials have done since that moment will pay off.
A $1 million project was put into motion, repaving more than 80,000 square feet of the track and extending the track.
"We are full throttle," Burns said.
But will it hold up?
"We are very confident," Burns said. "The last time we raced was 2008, and between weather, we had rain the Friday before, and down force on the racetrack, it's very tough.
"But we are very confident that those repairs have been taken care of. It has been totally replaced. There are a few tweaks here and there."
Pressure's on to succeed
Burns presented his case before the Detroit Sportscasters Association luncheon at the Taubman Center.
He was proud to be there because it's one of Detroit's shining lights — a refreshing place filled with fresh ideas.
It was a perfect setting for Burns because he gets it and he cares. He sees the big picture.
And in turn, he challenges people to find great things about Detroit. That's great.
But the bottom line is this: May 31-June 2 must go off without incident; it must be a success.
That is Burns' job. It's on him and race chairman Bud Denker.
And Burns understands.
"It's huge," he said. "What we give back to the island, give back to the city and give back to southeast Michigan.
"Having two live Indy Car races is huge, and it's a chance for the international media to be focused on this area."
