Men's golf in second after two rounds at Coca-Cola Wofford Invitational
Tuesday, April 12, 2011
SPARTANBURG, S.C. (April 11, 2011) - ETSU freshman Lucas Armstrong (Church Hill, Tenn.) and sophomore Patrick Spraggs (Rochford, England) are both tied for eighth individually and the Bucs are tied for second as a team after two rounds of the Coca-Cola Wofford Invitational on Monday at the Country Club of Spartanburg.
ETSU opened up the day with a 1-over 289, before closing out round two with a solid 3-under 285. The Bucs currently stand at 2-under par with Atlantic Sun Conference rival Campbell. The two teams are just two of three teams that are under par through two rounds. Richmond leads the event at 13-under.
The ETSU duo of Armstrong and Spraggs currently sit at 3-under par and just two shots behind the leaders. Armstrong opened the day by shooting a solid 1-under 71, before closing out the day with a 2-under 70. Spraggs opened with 72 before firing a team-best 3-under 69 in round two. Spraggs had 11 birdies on the day, which was good for third best in the field of 79 total players.
Four players are tied for the lead in the individual standings. Jacobo Pastor of Charleston Southern, Vaita Guillaume of Campbell, Kristopher Gray of Gardner-Webb, and Mark Joye of Wofford each share the lead at 5-under par. A trio of players remain just a shot back at 4-under on the 6,648-yard, par-72 layout.
ETSU senior Paul O'Kane (Castledawson, Northern Ireland) was the next best Buccaneer on the leaderboard as he sits in a tie for 24th at +2 after a pair of 73s. O'Kane's two rounds included three eagles which tied him for the lead in that category, while also leading the field in par-5 scoring at 10-under.
Freshman Spencer Lawson (Raleigh, N.C.) is tied for 27th at +3 (73-74), while junior Devin Komline (Dorset, Vt.) rounded out the ETSU scoring at +5 (76-73).
Tomorrow's final round shotgun start will begin at 9:30 a.m. with ETSU pairing with Richmond at Campbell.

How to do what you love...
January 19, 2006, 11:16:48 AM »
An interesting blog entry by Paul Graham titled "How To Do What You Love", struck me as having relevance to the "Is it Art" forum, at least tangentially. You can find the full essay here:
There was a reference at the bottom which said:
"Donald Hall said young would-be poets were mistaken to be so obsessed with being published. But you can imagine what it would do for a 24 year old to get a poem published in The New Yorker. Now to people he meets at parties he's a real poet. Actually he's no better or worse than he was before, but to a clueless audience like that, the approval of an official authority makes all the difference. So it's a harder problem than Hall realizes. The reason the young care so much about prestige is that the people they want to impress are not very discerning."
If you substitute the word "photographer" or "artist" for "poet" in the above, the relevance becomes more apparent.
Whenever people try to propose a single, unified definition of art and artists, in relation to photography, I always get the gut feel that they are trying to create a taxonomy that will maximize their ability to obtain "prestige". Interesting....
And regarding Paul's essay, I'm one that falls into the "two job route". My day job is in the Information Technology field, and that pays for the photographic toys and ability to go and make images. Though I do hope to transition towards making the photography a more lucrative endeavour over the next half dozen years or so, and correspondingly reduce my IT work. The one good thing I have is that I love my software work a lot. Best of both worlds.
This leads me to the identification of another facet of "artist photographer", IMNSHO.
I don't think (mind you, this is my sphincterous opinion) that you can call yourself an "artist" in any field of art unless you have it.
Ever notice how the most passionate of artists tend to ignore the discussion of what constitutes "real" artists and art, and correspondingly they seem to be immune to the siren call of prestige and acceptance? They just get on with doing what they do, with passion and enthusiasm. And funny enough, the good ones eventually are labelled "artists" by the external world, despite their not being interested in such labels.
So does my commenting on this very subject disqualify me as being an "artist"? ;-)
Hmmm...maybe I should stop typing/pontificating and go take some more photos, eh?

Hi to Andrej in Barrie from Tim in Toronto...
I agree 100% re passion, (necessary but obviously not sufficient) but not so much with the process of definition as a route to prestige.
I do believe that there is at least some value to be extracted from a discussion on "what is art" for the simple reason that we can't communicate without a foundation of shared meaning. The "I know it when I see it" approach severely limits any kind of rational discussion.

This comment of mine wasn't inteded to limit discussion as much as to highlights the fact that there probably isn't "one true, universal definition" of art/artists, and that we're dealing with opinions and grey areas, not absolute truths.
Discussing personal opinions is valuable. I find I learn a lot from other opinions and insights which then improves my own work and evolves my appreciation of art.
not so much with the process of definition as a route to prestige.
I've just seen that some people use the definition process as just such a route. Art Critics are a good example of that syndrome in action. They specify and control the definition so as to keep themselves gainfully employed and in the limelight. ;-)
But of course, just because we discuss our own definitions of art/artists, does not immediately imply that all we're after is prestige.

After my first solo show I realized I had needed to be patted on the back and told my work had value. Before that I would have told you I shoot because I love it and I would still do it if no one ever saw my work. Then I began to ask myself why go to the hassle of showing work again? It is decidedly not photography. It costs money and a lot of time and takes away from my photography time. Now that I have had my ego stroked why go there again? I decided, as I mentioned in one of the other threads, that once the work was up on the walls other people started to relate to it in their own way without me being in the picture, so to speak. After that image is taken home by the purchaser, I will be soon forgotten but the image will continue to live in the heart of the person who bought it for the reasons they related to it. For me I still will do the work because I love to, and there is nothing I would rather do, but I will continue to share it because some of the pieces might have a destiny with someone else.
After all why shoot pictures at all, we are witnesses to the scene first hand. We know what it looked like. A primary reason to try and capture it is to share the moment with others.
Only art history majors agree on what is art......because there will be a test at the end of the semester.

After my first solo show I realized I had needed to be patted on the back and told my work had value. ....
Wow, Mike, have you been reading my mind? EXACTLY!
My first solo show ends next month. I was at least in part searching for some kind of external validation of the "merit" or "worth" of the work; or some sign that my "vision" (hate that term for all its pretentious vagueness) had value to others. This, even though, were I to have not one attendee nor one sale, I'd still make photographs if only to look at and file away.
....once the work was up on the walls other people started to relate to it in their own way without me being in the picture....
This was the most amazing part of the opening. It was part of a larger public event, such that it wasn't one of those openings where people gather around to hear the "artist" opine on the state of world affairs, but rather look at the work unimpeded. I was blown away by the experience of seeing a body of my work, beautifully matted and framed, displayed as a coherent set, being thoughfully regarded by strangers. Not sure if they liked or hated it; but if that's what heroin is like, I now know why junkies shoot up.
....For me I still will do the work because I love to, and there is nothing I would rather do, but I will continue to share it because some of the pieces might have a destiny with someone else.
The analogy to sending your kids off into the world is overused, but apropos. You've tried to convey something, even if you aren't consciously sure what it is. It's a joy when you see others responding on some level to "it", or else finding their own "it" in the image.

"but rather look at the work unimpeded. I was blown away by the experience of seeing a body of my work, beautifully matted and framed, displayed as a coherent set, being thoughfully regarded by strangers."
I feel this way completely. There is something about seeing the work printed and finished in a gallery setting that seems like the logical conclusion of the process of making images.
I much prefer to hide in a corner and watch how people react to the work, than chat with folks. You get a more honest idea by watching them react. In my last show I created a critque form. It lists each image and gives 6 broad brush check-offs like "best of the show, interesting, below par, drop this image". It gives them room to comment. Many visitors were quite surprised at being asked for their opinion and thoughtfully filled out the forms. It seemed to get folks more engaged in the work. I had about 40% fill them out. I found an interesting thing, that many folks liked an image as "best" that didn't sell. This made me realize that people buy some images , I think, because they have a matching color scheme at home. So it helped me know that just because it doesn't sell doesn't mean people don't like it.
I would encourage any new photographers to do as we have and get brave enough to assemble a body of work and submit it to your local arts and humanties council or other gallery "call for artists". Expect some rejections but don't give up.

Allow me to make a pathetic attempt at constraining, if not defining, art.
Art is always subjective and is that which communicates meaning, truth, or beauty, via one or more of the senses, and whose constituent parts are arranged through a refined skill or talent, into a product that is more profound than the sum of its parts.
Personally, I rarely ever get into conversations on this particular topic although I am often baited by a painter friend of mine whose definition of art is often less understood by himself, than by those he subjects.
Validation, whether internal or external, while often comforting, is arguably never truly valid. Therefore, persue your passion and let time sort it out.

Buried under 25 feet of snow, coastal Alaska gobbled up the winter cold and snow we normally have in the northern tier of the country. Chalk it up to the Arctic Oscillation, a rare phenomenon that is killing my perennials and shrubs.
When the ground remains warm, as it has during this strange winter, and is suddenly covered by a heavy snow pack and sub-zero temperatures, plant roots suffer. Many die, especially when the thaw-freeze pattern is repeated.
We've had no snow this season until Jan. 12, when a blizzard dropped 8 inches and temperatures plunged below zero. Jan. 11, it was 59F and sunny, as it's been most of the winter. Daffodils had been popping up in the previous weeks.
I planted a plethora of Echinacea last summer, thinking I'd have colorful workhorses in my perennial beds that would also draw pollinators and feed birds during the winter. Dan Heims,accomplished breeder and president of Terra Nova Nurseries, explained to me that in order for Echinacea to succeed in cold climates like mine (USDA Zone 4b), I had to deadhead ruthlessly the first year in the ground. I shouldn't let plants blooms, but pinch off the buds as soon as I spotted them. Plants then spend their energy building extensive root systems to survive in the cold. I hope it worked!
I planted 26 different coneflowers last spring, including Pow Wow, with great hopes of a colorful display throughout the growing season. Photo courtesy of Ball Horticulture Co.
I also left dead chrysanthemum and aster foliage on plants. According to the Univ. of Iowa, the foliage blanket insulates plant roots. But…..it may have insulated them too well, and below zero temperatures probably damaged roots in warm soil.
And, I worry about shallow-rooted shrubs like blueberries. Hopefully, the foot of pine straw I mulched them with will keep root-kill to a minimum.
Rose canes are still green with intact leaves in mid-January due to the warm winter. With the sudden onslaught of snow and sub-zero temperatures, roots will probably die in the warm ground. The chrysanthemums won't make it either.
Roses are toast. Most canes were green and buds are plump when the storm hit. They'll probably die and only the rootstock upon which they're grafted will survive. Those on their own roots, like Therese Bugnet, may survive. We'll see.
Let's compare notes about what survives this strange winter. I'd love to hear what worked for you.

Curriculum & Residency
Podiatric Medicine CurriculumThe podiatric medical curriculum is very challenging, yet the learning environment at KSUCPM is conducive to student success. The curriculum consists of two components: the basic sciences and the clinical sciences. The basic sciences make up the first two years of study at KSUCPM; however, you will have the opportunity to spend some time in the Cleveland Foot and Ankle Clinic within your first two years of education.
The basic sciences curriculum is a combination of didactic and laboratory coursework that emphasizes lower extremity. The basic sciences curriculum will provide a student with the understanding of many systemic functions of the human body and how the foot and lower extremity are impacted.The clinical sciences curriculum is a combination of formal coursework, clinical rotations and clerkships. 3rd year students will spend the majority of their time at the Cleveland Foot and Ankle Clinic and various area hospitals, including the Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, the Veterans Affairs Hospital, and St. Vincent Charity Hospital. Students will participate in rotations in General Medicine, Orthopedics, Podiatric Medicine, and Surgery.

Transfer Students
As a transfer student to Ringling College of Art and Design, you will be choosing a major at the time you apply. Ringling College offers 14 undergraduate programs and each curriculum is distinct. It is important that you read about the majors carefully and then review the portfolio requirements for that major.
Bachelor of Arts
Business of Art and Design
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Advertising Design
Computer Animation
Digital Filmmaking
Fine Arts
Game Art and Design
Graphic Design
Interior Design
Motion Design
Photography and Digital Imaging
Students apply directly to one of 14 undergraduate majors and a portfolio of work specific to that major is required. While it is possible to change majors, it is not guaranteed, and can result in starting over in the new major.
We encourage students to spend time exploring their academic interests prior to applying to Ringling College of Art and Design. Opportunities to learn about and experience each major include the Admissions Councilors, Ringling College Website, the Pre-college summer program, Open House events, Continuing Education (CSSP) opportunities and National Portfolio Day.
All degree requirements, including studio, art history and liberal arts classes, are offered at Ringling College of Art and Design. Students matriculating at Ringling College are encouraged to complete all their coursework at the College. The rationale for this policy rests in the mission and philosophy of the institution and in its concern for the essential unity and integrity of all aspects of the curriculum: major requirements, liberal arts, art history and open electives. However, you can take the entire program in residence, or transfer in credits prior to entry.
Ringling College of Art and Design will consider for transfer any liberal arts or studio credit that meets academic requirements and in which a grade of "C" or better was earned from a regionally accredited college or university. Only the course credit is transferred. Transfer credit is not used in the calculation of grade point averages.
Student transfer credit evaluations for studio art classes* will be handled by the department head or his/her designee. The Office of Advising, Records and Registration Services evaluates transfer credit for liberal arts and art history courses. Once the evaluation is complete, transfer students will be able to see what courses have transferred and how they satisfy degree requirements by logging onto Self-Service and reviewing their on-line transcript. Students with liberal arts transfer credits may take additional studio or art history electives.
Students are limited to a total of 66 semester hours of transfer credits. A minimum of 54 semester hours must be taken at Ringling College of Art and Design. The last two academic years of study for a Ringling College of Art and Design degree must be completed in courses of study within a major of the College.
Ringling College of Art and Design reserves the right to decline credit for coursework that is more than ten years old.
Studio Transfer Credit:
Students who have taken studio art courses at another regionally accredited institution of higher education may have those courses and a portfolio reviewed by the department head or Academic Affairs designee to determine if the credits can apply to the degree requirements for the Bachelor of Fine Arts or Bachelor of Arts degrees. Requests for studio transfer credit must be supported by a sufficient number of portfolio submissions that demonstrate the competencies associated with those required by the majors.
Permission to take courses at other colleges during the summer is granted through the Office of Advising, Records and Registration Services. Students must meet with their Academic Advisor who will consider all aspects of the student's request, including the quality and level of the proposed course and its role in the student's program of study before completing a Transient Student form. Courses intended to fulfill major requirements must also be approved by the department head.
Students entering with an Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts degree from a regionally accredited college or university will be considered to have met the liberal arts requirements for the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree or Bachelor of Arts degree. Students entering with an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science degree from a regionally accredited college or university will have their liberal arts credits evaluated to determine if they fulfill the distribution requirements for the B.F.A. degree or the B.A. degree. Additional course work may be required.
Art History Transfer Credit:
Students who have taken art history courses at another regionally accredited institution of higher education may have those courses evaluated by the Academic Advisors in the Office of Advising, Records, and Registration Services to determine if they meet the degree requirements for the Bachelor of Fine Arts or Bachelor of Arts Degree. Departments at Ringling College may have specific art history requirements such as a history of the discipline. The proposed transfer credit will be reviewed by the Academic Advisor and/or an Academic Affairs designee to determine if the credit meets institutional standards for course equivalence.
Liberal Arts Transfer Credit:
Consistent with the requirements for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), Ringling College will accept for credit, courses drawn from the following three areas of knowledge: humanities and fine arts; social and behavioral sciences; and natural sciences and mathematics.
Admission to Advanced Standing by Portfolio Review:
A portfolio of work is internally reviewed by the department head or designee for advanced standing in the student's selected program of study. The portfolio must demonstrate mastery of skills and sufficient knowledge of content in the college level course for which placement is being sought. Students demonstrating competence beyond that required for entrance may be exempted from one or more college-level courses in the subject or subjects covered by the portfolio review, provided that such demonstration of competence is confirmed by further successful study in residence in the same field. Credit is not awarded for advanced standing and students will be expected to complete a minimum of 120 credit hours for graduation. Transfer credit is granted only when the coursework is externally validated through a regionally accredited institution of higher education with a C or better or through programs such as IB and AP.
Residency Requirement:
Students are limited to a total of 66 semester hours of transfer credits. A minimum of 54 semester hours must be taken at Ringling College of Art and Design. The last two academic years of study for a Ringling College of Art and Design degree must be completed in courses of study within a major of the College. Ringling College of Art and Design reserves the right to decline credit for coursework that is more than ten years old.
Dual Enrollment:
Courses taken in high school on a dual enrollment basis with a regionally accredited college or university will be considered for transfer credit.
Transfer Credits for Military Courses:
Transfer credit may be awarded for military courses based upon ACE Guidelines. If the student's military course has an ACE recommended equivalency, and the recommended equivalent is a course that Ringling offers, transfer credit may be given at the discretion of the Registrar with as needed consultation with Academic Affairs administrators and Department Chairs/Program Directors. All other transfer credit must be from a regionally accredited institution. Ringling College of Art and Design does not award credit for non credit work or for experiential learning.
Articulation Agreement:
Florida transfer students who complete the AA Degree in studio art or photography from select Florida community colleges are eligible to apply to the 2 + 2 BFA in Fine Arts or the BFA in Photography & Digital Imaging. Once accepted to the program, students are enrolled at the junior level and complete an additional two years in residency at Ringling College to complete the B.F.A. degree.
Participating Community Colleges:
State College of Florida: AA with an emphasis in Studio Art
AA with an emphasis in Photography
St. Petersburg College: AA with an emphasis in Studio Art
Valencia College: AA in Fine Art/Studio Art
Ringling College is approved for veterans' study under several GI bills, and participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Veterans should contact the Veteran Certifying Official in the Office of Advising, Records and Registration Services for more information.
International Students:
International students who have attended a college/university outside the United States and are requesting transfer credit must have their academic credentials evaluated by a Foreign Credential Evaluation Service. This evaluation must include a "course by course" evaluation with grades or marks and credits or hours equated to the U.S. system. The official and sealed credential evaluation must be submitted directly to the Office of the Registrar at Ringling College of Art and Design. International students must have their transcripts evaluated by The American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) International Education Services http://ies.aacrao.org/ , which is Ringling's required evaluation service.
Advanced Placement Credit
Ringling College must receive the official Advanced Placement (AP) Transcript within the first year of the student's matriculation if credit is to be awarded. No AP credit will be awarded after the student has completed one full year at Ringling College.

Thanks for participating and enjoy!
Francisco's Manaaesh (Flatbread with Za'atar), p. 240
I made the dough and used half for the Scallop Pizza (p.92), and half for flatbread. I used a stand mixer for the dough (flour, water, yeast, olive oil), and had a bit of trouble. It stayed sticky and never pulled away from the sides, so I stopped after about 12 minutes. The dough is then put in the refrigerator to rise for at least 2 hours or overnight. I made the pizza the same day, and used the overnight dough for the flatbread. The recipe calls for some pre-planning as the dough then has to rise at room temp for another 1-1/2 hours before spreading into a rectangle and brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with za'atar and salt, and then resting for another 30 minutes before baking at 375 for 15-20 minutes.
She mentions using green Jordanian za'atar, but I used Penzey's. This made a nice flatbread to accompany muhammara, but the dough took a lot of time and so I prefer the easier version from "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day".
re: Rubee
Francisco's Manaaesh (Flatbread with Za'atar), p. 240
I have been going through a lot of pita bread (muhammara addiction), so I made this to supplement my store bought stuff. For me, the dough came together easily. I used my KA but next time I think I'll hand knead, as the olive oil made the dough easy to work with. Perhaps because I used instant rather than active dry and got to skip the yeast proofing, my dough was less wet than yours Rubee? Who knows, bread is tempermental IMO. Anyway, we liked the bread very much, and ate it all in 2 days. Next time I will use more za'atar, and use a bigger baking sheet, so I can spread out the dough for a thinner result. Next time I'll make a double batch too, and freeze half.
re: yamalam
2nd try - picture
re: yamalam
Looks great! And the texture looks better than mine. I can't bake. I got a boost of confidence making "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day", but I'm pretty sure the problem with the manaeesh dough when I made it was me ; ). Glad you liked the recipe!
Ground beef and pistachio kebobs, page 236
I have to confess that I did not not have an open mind when I started cooking this recipe for lunch today. I was already sure that I will not like it, but I am happy it proved me wrong.
First you knead ground beef with chopped roasted bell pepper, kebob spice mix and Aleppo chilies in a standing mixer (I don't have one, so I used fp). Since Sortum says that this is an important step as it aerates the mixture and I had doubled the recipe, I mixed it in fp in 3 batches. At this point the mixture had pretty brick color and the texture of the beef was very smooth and silky. Then add egg white, roasted chopped pistachios (which seemed too many while adding, but not while eating) and place them on skewers. Sortum suggest to grill them, but I broiled them 3-4 minutes each side. I took them out on a plate, vs pita as she suggest. I think letting them, rest on pita is a great idea to collect the juices, but I did not want to serve pita from the start of the meal to my toddler, as this would be her primary focus and not the meat and veggies. I served the meal with red onions and sumac, pita (which I brought out after half of the meal) and roasted broccoli. It was lacking yogurt (or maybe some yogurt sauce), which I missed till the sangria had not kicked in.
re: cpw
Still need to post about this with my photos, but we really liked this too, though it was actually quite expensive b/c of the pistachios and ground lamb! My skewers were a bit short, so I think I made twelve kofte, and then grilled them on my grill pan. I served them on rice, with the yogurt, red onions with sumac, chopped tomatoes and chopped romaine lettuce, and it made a pretty quick and easy meal. I loved the addition of hte pistachios. Oh - and I did use my stand mixer, and because the mixture seemed a bit dry to me, I added some olive oil. I cooked up and tasted three small patties, adding more salt each time.
re: MMRuth
This is one of my favorite recipes. I've learned to double the spices, including the red pepper paste. I was using TJ's grass fed ground beef, but haven't seen it in a while, and the kebabs always turned out nice and juicy.
re: emily
I think the spices defnitely need doubling in this recipe. We liked it well enough, but it definitely lacked "oomph", which was surprising given the amount of aleppo chilli in there. It didn't help though, probably, that I completely forgot to add salt and I really couldn't be bothered to take the kebabs off their sticks to do that. So they were underseasoned - duh! Unlike others, I don't seen the point of the pistachios and would probably omit them if I make it again - which I probably will if only to use up the rest of the spice mix! (I used beef, btw, but would probably try lamb next time.)
I served this with khoobz (flatbread), chopped tomatoes, red onions tossed with sumac, as suggested, and a beetroot in yoghurt recipe which is also from Spice, which I will report on in the relevant thread.
re: MMRuth
I used ground beef, and I am sure the would be tastier with lamb. For this time atleast I was happy to use pistachios, as it was sitting in the freezer from some while and occupying *prime real estate*.
re: cpw
I would like to report that I had 2 kind of left overs, and we did not enjoy them later.
The first ones were cooked leftovers, which I reheated in the oven - covered with foil. I served them with tomotoes, onion and yogurt, but nothing was enough to cover up the dryness.
The second ones was premixed beef mixture, which I cooked later. These were also very dry and somehow the juices from the meat was absorbed by the pistachios rendering the meat dry and the pistachios tasteless.
re: MMRuth
Moussaka, pp. 166-169
I made this today and even though it was quite hot (for SFBayarea), I managed to get through it without much sweating and groaning. The recipe is for lamb steak with Turkish spices and moussaka. The moussaka has ground lamb, so I decided not to make the steaks.
I realized about halfway through the recipe that I'd forgotten to get kasseri cheese. I didn't even have feta, which I almost always keep on hand. The only cheese I had besides ricotta was some salted mizritha I bought a couple of weeks ago when I grabbed the salted rather than the plain mizritha I wanted to use for a pie in Elizabeth David's Mediterranean cookbook.
This was quite a production. The recipe calls for brushing olive oil on the eggplant slices and baking them in the oven. I just couldn't stand to turn on the oven in the middle of this hot day and so grilled them on the Weber.
First you brown the lamb in olive oil and butter with the garlic and onion. You then add tomato paste and cinnamon and golden raisins and cook it down until it's "fluffy" and "glazy" (her words). Well, I certainly didn't think it looked fluffy, but I could see "glazy". You cool it down and stir in chopped parsley and mint and season with s&p.
Potatoes are then boiled and mashed and seasoned with s&p. I then grilled the eggplant which got a little burnt, but I managed to scrape off those parts.
You then make a roux with butter and flour and add milk and cook until thickened, then add nutmeg, a 1/2 cup of plain yoghurt and the cheese (I grated the mizritha into the sauce - it got a bit grainy and didn't blend into the sauce, but it tasted great. She actually says that if you want a smooth sauce you can blend it. I didn't bother.
Her moussaka is baked and served in individual souffle dishes. I was beginning to wish I had a swimming pool to jump into at this point and decided on one large pan instead.
From here on, it's pretty much the usual prep for moussaka: layers of potatoes, lamb/tomato/onion mixture, grilled eggplants and sauce. I baked it in the oven and it tasted very good. My husband thought it was much more than just good. He loved it. I have been hearing him in the kitchen taking bites all evening (after dinner). I served it with a salad of romaine, frisee, radicchio, dandelion greens, tomatoes, green onions and some wonderful long striped cukes I got in the box last Friday. I'm sure the lamb steaks in the marinade would have been great with this, but it was just too much work on a hot day and I already stood over the grill while the eggplants cooked.
For dessert we had another of her recipes - figs poached in red wine. I'll report on that in the proper thread (Allspice, Cinnamon and Nutmeg).
Crispy Lemon Chicken with Za'atar, p. 245
We loved this! There's only a few simple ingredients - basically, lemon, butter, and za'atar - but takes a fair amount of work with time for the lemon confit, boning a whole chicken, and the spatter from cooking under a brick.
I made the lemon confit the day before. Lemon is thinly sliced and poached for a couple of hours over low heat in olive oil, drained, cooled, and refrigerated. I also coarsely chopped it before using it. I boned a 4-pound chicken the day before (cut in half, cut off wings, and boned) too. To cook, cubes of butter and lemon confit are stuffed under the skin, the breast and thigh folded up against each other to make a round shape and "create marbled meat", and then cooked in olive oil and butter, weighed down with a brick ( I used a concrete paver wrapped in tinfoil). Finally, serve sprinkled with za'atar. I don't have green Jordanian za'atar, and used Penzey's.
Both of us kept commenting on how juicy and flavorful this was with the layered dark and white meat. The skin was crispy and tasty topped with za'atar (sumac, thyme, sesame seeds, salt) and the meat was nicely seasoned with lemon throughout. Delicious, and E's always happy when he doesn't have to deal with bones. I served with Ottolenghi's Saffron Cauliflower (also a winner). Next time I would use toothpicks to help it keep its shape a bit, and use a smaller chicken, although the leftovers will be great in sandwiches.
re: Rubee
Wow! I tried that recipe a few months ago when the book was first under consideration and had a totally different experience. Wrote sort of a mini-report here:
Quite shocking how two different people trying the same recipe can have such totally different experiences. Glad yours was such a good one.
re: JoanN
I appreciated your report, and did pay attention to what you wrote, especially about it not being crispy! As a result, I blotted the skin well and decided to let it air-dry uncovered for 20-30 minutes, and also started the chicken in a cast-iron pan over very high heat. The lemon confit really seemed to permeate the meat, and we both loved that it was a combination of boneless white and dark meat.

Research will be central to your studies; as a neuroscience major you will undertake an in-depth senior research project. You may do summer research with a faculty member, funded by a grant, or coauthor a paper published in a scholarly journal.
Alex Cates '15 is a Hamilton College neuroscience major who spent the summer after his sophomore year doing research. "It was great to get the hands-on experience of designing an experiment, collecting and analyzing data, and then designing a new experiment to test the next hypothesis – not to mention learning a little bit of coding and enjoying the summer research atmosphere," says Cates, who worked on modeling human movement.More >>
He and the other students attempted to see how the brain's processing speed is affected by the difficulty of a task. They also worked on creating a digital representation of how people move their arms through space and seeing how that changes depending on a task's difficulty.
Cates says it's never too early for a student to go for a research opportunity.
"I started my sophomore year. There is no bias toward upperclassmen. Never be afraid to give it a shot, you never know what opportunities will open up," he says.
Cates, who studied in New Zealand his junior year, is thinking about possibly teaching or doing research for a couple of years after college and then heading to grad school.
A graduate's progress: a medical degree
Nathaly François '04 knew since childhood that she wanted to be a physician. At Hamilton College she majored in neuroscience and planned to be a neurosurgeon, but in medical school she discovered her true passion – urology. She is a urology resident at the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine.More >>
Even before François wanted to be a physician, she wanted to be a teacher. When she entered the field of medicine she says, "I began to understand I could be both. Physicians work in a teaching and learning environment– with medical students, with their patients and with their colleagues."
After her residency, François expects to pursue a fellowship to further specialize within urology, but she hasn't yet decided exactly which direction she will take. Hamilton, she says, has been a big part of what she has achieved. The support and encouragement that students receive from professors "was actually very wonderful."
"They made it very clear that they were available, and in the time that they spent with you, it was always a moment of edification. They were never cursory. You were never felt to be small. You always felt you were remarkable, that you could do anything," François says.
Hamilton graduates who concentrated in neuroscience are pursuing careers in a variety of fields, including:

Ok, this is really wierd...I've got a miller 251, I would still call it new. I've welded my little heart out on my buggy, no problems, tonight i welded up my last two beadlock rings.....went to do some welding on my front diff and when i put the ground on the truck....the gas solenoid starts turning on and off erratically.....so i take it off, touch the wire from the gun anywhere on the truck....does the same thing. I tried every other piece of metal in the shop, and it didnt do it.
It gave me an error code meaning there was a short somewhere. (HLP 004)
But why only on my truck? the negative on the battery is disconnected, and i've welded on it tons already. There are no wires, cords anything electrical going to my truck.
Any Ideas?

Crazy posessed welder. Help!
Wow! How weird is that?
The failsafe circuitry in these machines is hyper-sensitive. When you make contact with the truck, something (like say the computer or radio) is finding your welder as a path to ground. The 251 sees that tiny amount of current as a fault. Try disconnecting the positive cable on the battery instead and I bet the problem goes away. Maybe.Triggerman

Marisol Rodriguez Miranda will continue as co-editor, and now will be joined by Marcus Brittain. In mid 2012, Miguel Aguilar will take over Marisol's responsibilities as co-editor of the newsletter. The Executive would like to thank all of these people, as well as the others who applied, and were willing to consider taking on this workload themselves.
As members are aware, WAC has no paid staff. With the single exception of our website, all of our work is done by volunteer archaeologists and heritage managers who are committed to achieving greater global equity in archaeology. All of these people have other tasks that they could spend their time on, but they all choose to devote a substantial part of their lives to the collaborative venture that is the World Archaeological Congress. The work done by each individual is greatly appreciated.
Publication from the WAC Ramallah Inter-Congress
Present Pasts is a fully open access, peer-reviewed academic journal from the Heritage Studies Research Group at the Institute of Archaeology, UCL. Brian Hole edited this issue of the journal. It includes articles by Hamdan Taha, Reinhard Bernbeck, Salah H Al-Houdalieh, Beverley Butler, Maria Theresia Starzmann and Adel H. Yahya, and an introductory article by Lynn Dodd and Ran Boytner on the future of Palestinian archaeology.
WAC Inter-Congress in Beijing, China:
This conference played an important role in highlighting best practice in cultural heritage management, especially in terms of relationships with communities. This was also an important conference in terms of developing disciplinary relationships within the region of East and South East Asia. At this conference, plans were initiated for a follow-up conference in Thailand, and possibly another meeting in Japan. These developments build on WAC's previous Inter-Congress in Okaka, Japan.
The Executive would like to thank Chen Xingcan and Wang Renyu, in China, and Peter Stone, from the U.K. An edited book from this Inter-Congress will be produced in both Chinese and English.
WAC Inter-Congress in Indiana, USA:
Several important awards were given to student presenters at this highly successful conference. The award for Best Graduate Student Paper at this conference was given to Jonathan Eaton (University of Toronto) for his paper "Museums, Indigeneity and Crises of Identity in the Western Balkans." The Best Graduate Student Poster award went to Justin Ellis (IUPUI) for "Content Analysis of Four Midwestern Native American Exhibits." Terry Point and Jordan Wilson (Musqueam Indian Band and The University of British Columbia) shared an award for Best Undergraduate Student Poster as co-authors of "Consulting with Community: the Musqueam-UBC Archaeological Field School." An Honorable Mention was awarded to Tomás Sepúlveda (University of Barcelona) for his paper on "Museology and comunalidad: An approach to the communitarian museums of Oaxaca, Mexico" and Rachael Kiddey (University of York) for "Trash or Treasure? Representing social exclusion in the modern museum."
The Executive would like to thank all of the people involved in organising this Inter-Congress, and especially Julie Hollowell, Dru McGill, Stephen Loring and Larry Zimmerman.

Past Preservers, a Cairo-based consultancy unifying history, archaeology and media, teamed up with New York-based, Crimson Bamboo LLC, in March to develop tours for Rama, Crimson Bamboo's flagship iPhone application.
Named by BBC Travel in 2010 as one of the ten best new travel apps, Rama is a mobile phone platform that takes users on historical walking tours which not only tell the story behind the stops on the tour, but also show archival images of how those locations once appeared.
"Past Preservers has always been dedicated to helping academics and professionals to earn money doing the things that they are most passionate about," said Past Preservers' CEO and founder, Nigel Hetherington. "Rama not only offers the perfect opportunity to reach new audiences using one of the most cutting-edge platforms available, but also offers our clients a new opportunity to write first-class historical content that they can sell directly to customers. This is a truly innovative publishing model."

The WAC Executive and Council is delighted to announce that Professor Peter Gregory Stone has just been made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (Civil), for services to Heritage education. Peter Stone has been a major force in WAC since its inception, and was Honorary CEO from 1999-2008. He is Professor of Heritage Studies, International Centre for Cultural and Heritage Studies, Newcastle University, United Kingdom.
The Foreign Ministry - the Cultural Sector - and the American Coalition announced that they reached cooperation Agreement under a comprehensive plan to protect Egypt's archaeological and cultural heritage, which will provide a crucial basis for tourism revenue for building Egyptian powerful economy.
The Framework Agreement reflects partnership between the government sector (the Egyptian Foreign Ministry) and the Private Sector (the American Coalition) which would commit the American side to provide financial resources.
Egyptian antiquities and sites are among those most historically significant and important worldwide. In times of political transition, ancient sites and artifacts are often targets of international crime and illicit activities, said Deborah Lehr, and added, "We commend the Government of Egypt for its efforts, and keenness on organizing the meeting and reaching results, we are also delighted to be working together to develop and create short and long-term solutions to guarantee protection of Egypt's invaluable cultural heritage."
Ambassador Sheriff El Kholy, Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs for Cultural Relations commented that the situation of protecting the Egyptian antiquities by the Egyptian authorities during and post the revolution differs entirely from that in Iraq. He praised the efforts undertaken by the Ministry of State for Antiquities Affairs within this framework, adding that there is a need to strengthening capacity and building on the measures already taken by the Egyptian authorities.
Ambassador Iman El Farr, Deputy Assistant Minister for Cultural Protocols and Agreements highlighted the cultural importance of perfect preparation reaching the final wording of the agreement to be signed so as to start implementing what agreed upon and facilitate the process of providing the necessary financial resources.
This is a historic agreement that develops a new system for all to work together on our goal of protecting and preserving Egypt's archaeological sites, said Peter Herdrich, Chief Executive Officer of the Archaeological Institute of America, adding that it is a great day for archaeology in Egypt.

Coming soon (and available for preorder!):
This book is the first to describe indigenous archaeology in Latin America for an English speaking audience. Eighteen chapters primarily by Latin American scholars describe relations between indigenous peoples and archaeology in the frame of national histories and examine the emergence of the native interest in their heritage. Relationships between archaeology and native communities are ambivalent: sometimes an escalating battleground, sometimes a promising site of intercultural encounters. The global trend of indigenous empowerment today has renewed interest in history, making it a tool of cultural meaning and political legitimacy. This book deals with the topic with a raw forthrightness not often demonstrated in writings about archaeology and indigenous peoples. Rather than being 'politically correct,' it attempts to transform rather than simply describe.
Recently Released!
This is the first volume to introduce the data, theory and methodology of contemporary archaeological work in Japan and other parts of East Asia archaeology in English to western audiences. It also introduces a new theoretical concept to archaeologists interested in the relationship between ancient cultures—coexistence. Archaeologists traditionally examine the boundaries between different cultural groups in terms conflict and dominance rather than long-term, harmonious adaptive responses. Chapters in this book cover evidence from burials, faunal and botanical analysis, as well as traditional trade goods. It is of interest to archaeologists conducting research in East Asia or studying intercultural interaction anywhere around the globe.

2012 Research Fellowships with IISH and KNAW
The International Institute of Social History (IISH) of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) is located in Amsterdam. Founded in 1935, it is one of the world's largest documentary and research institutions in the field of social history in general and the history of the labour movement in particular.
Facilitating the use of these materials for research by the global scholarly community is central to the mission of the IISH. With the generous help of the retail financial service provider SNS Reaal, IISH can now launch a fellowship programme for researchers located in these regions who wish to use its collections for the study of social history, preferably labour history, whether from a regional, national, or comparative and transnational perspective.
Period: Fellowships are awarded for five months. Each year there are two rounds. This is a call for applications for fellowships for the periods 1 February - 30 June 2012 and 1 September 2012 - 31 January 2013. The call for applications for both of these rounds is open from 1 September until 15 October 2011. Candidates should clearly indicate on their applications which of these two rounds they are applying for. After award the fellowships cannot be transferred to a period of stay different from the one indicated in the original application. A call for fellowships to start in 2013 will follow in due course.
Regions:For the current two rounds we invite applications especially from Africa and Latin America, next to South Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, the Middle East, and the Caucasus.
Minimum requirements: a Ph.D. degree or equivalent academic track record. The fellow's research plan should fit the Institute's focus on social history and make a demonstrable use of the Institute's library and/or archival collections. A close link with the Institute's research programme on 'Global Labour History' is strongly recommended. Fellows are expected to write a report on their research activities at the end of the fellowship period, to take part in the activities of the Institute's Research Department, and to give at least one public lecture.
Applications should be submitted between 1 September and 15 October 2011, using the application form which can be downloaded here, to be returned after completion to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Fellows receive a monthly stipend of €1,500. The fellowship also includes an economy return flight to the Netherlands, visa support, as well as arrangements for accommodation and health insurance in Amsterdam.
For general information on the International Institute of Social History, please refer to the IISH website, in particular the sections on the IISH collections, the institute's research projects and its Global Labour History research programme. For specific information regarding the fellowship programme send your inquiries to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Association of Critical Heritage Studies
The inaugural conference of the Association of Critical Heritage Studies will be held at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, in June 2012. The Association of Critical Heritage Studies, to be launched at this conference, will establish (in association with the International Journal of Heritage Studies) an extensive network of heritage scholars across the globe in order to debate and discuss cutting-edge research in the field of heritage studies.
The theme of the conference is 'The Re/theorisation of Heritage Studies'. This conference will develop current theoretical debates to make sense of the nature and meaning of heritage. As such, we invite submissions from people working within the 'broad church' of the current flowering of contemporary heritage studies. Papers should encourage cross-cutting thinking and should not be afraid to try to theorise what critical heritage studies is and where it should go. They should be underpinned by an active move away from site- and artefact-based definitions of heritage in a traditional sense and should pursue instead a range of methodologies and questions aiming at interdisciplinarity stemming from social science scholarly traditions, the natural sciences, and also creative sciences such as art and the performing arts.
Conference subthemes will include:
Abstract/Paper Submissions
Abstracts should be addressed to Bosse Lagerqvist (Conference Organisation Committee) and either emailed, faxed or posted to:

CARY, N.C. – Duke's run at the ACC Championship came to an end Sunday in the finals as the sixth-ranked Blue Devils were unable to come-from-behind for the second straight day against seventh-ranked Virginia. The Cavaliers (21-5) registered a 4-2 victory on its way to capturing the ACC Championship at the Cary Tennis Park in Cary, N.C.
The Blue Devils (24-4) were trying to win their fourth match in four days against a Virginia squad that posted quick victories in the quarterfinals and semifinals.
"I think we played the right lineup and we had the right lineup that we wanted for the tournament," said Duke head coach Jamie Ashworth. "We struggled with some spots late in the year so we made some changes and those changes came through well for us. We put ourselves in a difficult situation last weekend having to come here and play four matches in four days. I think it caught up with us a little bit. Most of the matches out here were three sets today, but it was a great match. Virginia did a great job closing out matches and hopefully we get better because of today."
For the first time this tournament, Duke dropped the doubles point as Virginia netted wins at the No. 2 and No. 3 slots. The Blue Devils opened with a quick, 8-3, victory on court one as fifth-ranked Beatrice Capra and Hanna Mar downed Li Xi and Stephanie Nauta. The Blue Devils won the first four games, before dropping their first to cut the lead to 4-1. Capra and Mar would go on to win their ninth straight match.
"It was a really good match today," commented Capra. "Playing UVA is always really tough. I couldn't be happier with the effort that we have put in this whole week. Playing next to these girls is such a honor. They are such good competitors and such great people. I had a lot of fun today. Hopefully we can learn from this and get it back in the NCAAs."
The Blue Devil tandem of 30th-ranked Ester Goldfeld and Alyssa Smith would take a 2-1 lead against 13th-ranked Julia Elbaba and Rachel Pierson. The match stayed close most of the way until the Cavaliers went ahead 6-3, but Goldfeld and Smith battled back to even the score, 6-6. Virginia held on for two games to take the 8-6 victory.
After netting wins for the Blue Devils the last two days, the 88th-ranked Duke duo of Annie Mulholland and Chalena Scholl got off to a solid start leading 3-1. Virginia's Danielle Collins and Maci Epstein were able to break the Blue Devils to cut the Duke lead to 3-2 and then took control of the match. The Cavaliers went ahead 5-3 and ended up clinching the doubles point with an 8-6 win.
Virginia got off to a great start in singles leading early in five of the six matches, but the Blue Devils would try to make a comeback.
The Cavaliers were able to take a 2-0 lead with a 6-3, 6-1 win by 36th-ranked Collins over 26th-ranked Goldfeld on court two.
Duke stormed back to even the score, 2-2, after wins by redshirt junior Rachel Kahan and Scholl on courts six and four. Kahan, who is out of Unionville, Conn., collected a 7-5, 6-3 win for her 16th singles victory of the season over Caryssa Peretz.
After dropping the first set, 6-4, Scholl switched gears and only lost two more games winning, 6-0, 6-2, on the fourth court over 69th-ranked Pierson. Scholl, who is out of Pampano Beach, Fla., closed the tournament with a 4-0 mark in singles.
A native of Laguna Niguel, Calif., Smith went ahead 5-1 on court four versus Epstein, before the Cavalier battled back to send the match into a tiebreaker. Smith would come out ahead, 8-6, to win the first set. Epstein went on to never trail winning the next two sets, 6-4, 6-1, and putting Virginia ahead, 3-2.
Capra, a sophomore out of Ellicott City, Md., and Duke's lone senior on the court, Mar, were left to try to bring home the title for the Blue Devils.
After going down 5-0 on court one to fourth-ranked Elbaba, Capra made an improbable comeback to win the first set, 7-5. Elbaba came back in the second set to win, 6-2, to send the match into a third set.
A day after playing a three hour and four minute three-set thriller, Mar was in another battle on court three with 62nd-ranked Nauta. Mar dropped the first set for the second straight day, 6-3, but came back to win the second, 6-4. In the third set, Mar fell behind, 5-3, but won three consecutive games to lead 6-5. Mar, who is from Burr Ridge, Ill., went on to have two match points, but was over-ruled on a potential match-clinching shot and would never gain control from then on. Nauta evened the score, 6-6, sending the match into a breaker.
In the tiebreaker, Nauta never trailed winning 7-3 to clinch the 4-2 win for Virginia. When the match was decided, Capra and Elbaba were tied, 4-4, on court one.
Duke will next await the NCAA Tournament selection show Tuesday, April 29 at 5:30 p.m.

The 2011 LeFlore County high school football season end in a rough way on Nov. 11. The county had two teams, the Heavener Wolves in Class 2A and the Arkoma Mustangs in Class C.
Unfortunately for both teams, it was a one-and-done trip to the postseason as the Wolves lost 47-7 in Stroud to Class 2A's third-ranked Tigers, while the eighth-ranked Mustangs suffered a 54-8 loss to No. 6 Covington-Douglas.
But as I reflect on the 2011 LeFlore County high school football season, there will be a lot of things which stand out.
First, the Arkoma Mustangs set a school record for number of wins (nine) and having a home playoff game.
The Heavener Wolves returned to postseason play after a few years absence.
The Panama Razorbacks snapped a 17-game losing streak as they defeated their archrivals, the Pocola Indians. It set up quite a little battle down the stretch among the county's District 2A-6 teams. As of Week 9, all four — Heavener, Panama, Pocola and Talihina — were vying for the final playoff spot from the district. After Panama beat Pocola, Heavener then beat both Panama and Pocola (the latter in a strong second-half rally) to snatch the postseason bid.
Lastly, the Poteau Pirates gave most fans some entertaining moments with their no-huddle offense, which helped senior quarterback Wilson Klutts become the school's all-time leading passer and the top passer in Class 4A in 2011. It also allowed senior receivers Blake Roley and Jesse Woodson and sophomore receiver Jace Pitchford to be among the state's best in Class 4A.
What does 2012 have in store? There will be some new-look districts for our county teams, a move up to Class 3A for Heavener and a drop down to Class A for Talihina. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
But for now, while our county football teams are gearing up for off-season workouts, I get to move on to high school and college basketball as well as high school wrestling. Don't you just love how there's not much, if any, time off between sports seasons? But hey, it keeps me out of trouble!

Julius Caesar was, according to Shakespeare, "ripped untimely from his mother's womb," making him the first person to be delivered by what we now call "cesarean section." Or perhaps just the first person whose mother survived to tell the tale?
Because there´s no doubt about it-a c-section is a complicated procedure and can be hard on the mother.
Think about it. First the anesthesiologist delivers pain-killing anesthesia through a needle precisely placed into the small space around the spinal cord. Then the surgeon makes an incision through the abdominal wall, and then through the uterus, without harming the baby or the placenta and without causing excess bleeding. This incision is large enough to remove a baby weighing up to nine or ten pounds. Then the placenta is removed and, layer by layer, the uterus and abdominal wall are stitched up.
With the latest technology and the experienced medical and surgical staff, the Birthplace is ready to handle the hazards of repeat cesareans, with joyful results for mother and child.
Caesar´s mom should have been so fortunate!

I think she is telling people to get off their asses and take responsibility for their actions. To quit whining about what everybody owes them and contribute to society.
I agree with all of it except the clothing issue. I don't care who is wearing baggy pants or hoodies, tattooed or pierced. I have always been around a lot of young men, some of who look scary bad and yet they are the sweetest, kindest young men. Who gives a rat's ass if they wear baggy pants. Our parents generation went nuts over guys having long hair. Pfffftttt. Get over it.

I've searched for it, but I couldn't find any question about this.
I'm working on a game where PvP fights are possible. The game is written in PHP/MySQL.
What I want to implement is to save all the actions of users in the fight (hits, misses, critical hits etc.). For example: link
However, I couldn't decide how and where to keep them. As an array, xml file, in json format; in a log file, in the database or in a seperate cookie? Which way is the best practise?

GPCA: Integration across the value chain is key to leveraging gas resources
7:39 AM MST | November 28, 2012 | Natasha Alperowicz in Dubai
The 7th annual Gulf Petrochemicals and Chemicals Association (GPCA) forum, which began on Monday, is focusing on the state of the industry and the challenges that lie ahead. The event, themed "Sustaining competitiveness in a rapidly changing world," includes topics such as innovation, and attracting and retaining a workforce as the region's chemical sector moves increasingly downstream. The Gulf petrochemicals sector added 34,564 jobs between 2010 and 2011, an increase of 11%, according to new research by the GPCA. The 1,500-plus delegates and...
