AGA Pro Tourney: Final Results and Team Credits
Saturday January 9, 2016
In the final set of games in the AGA Professional Qualification Tournament on Saturday morning, Andrew Lu defeated Daniel Gourdeau and Jeremy Chiu beat Sarah Yu. Lu took third place and a seeded place in the next pro tournament, Gourdeau was fourth, Chiu is fifth and Yu sixth.
Thanks to the entire E-Journal team for bringing this week-long event to the world. Dennis Wheeler not only did his usual stellar job recording games, cleaning up game records and helping manage the team, but took on new responsibilities for producing our series of game highlight videos, which I think you'll agree are an excellent addition to our coverage. The game recording team included regular LA volunteers Richard Dolen and Joe Cepiel, with the welcome addition of Greg Kulevich and Esther Jun, who both did a terrific job. The commentary team included Myungwan Kim 9P, Tyler Oyakawa 6d, Norman Tsai 7d and I-han Lui 7d, who all did excellent work drawing out key lessons for our series of brief videos. Andrew Jackson provided tech support for the videos and Steve Colburn kept the tournament page and crosstab updated. Thanks to Akane Negishi and her team of admins at KGS for their support, as always.
Many thanks as well to the staff of the Hotel Normandie, its architect and go enthusiast Jingbo Lou and the folks at Cassell's who generously provided not only a calm and elegant venue but all the help we needed and water and coffee when we were thirsty.
Special thanks to Tournament Director Jeff Shaevel for ensuring the event's smooth operation throughout the week — as he has each year — and a very special thanks to AGA president Andy Okun, who not only coordinated the entire event with Myungwan Kim 9P, but was always there taking care of the myriad details, both tiny and big, to make the event a success, including assuming game recording duties when needed.
Of course, the biggest thanks goes to the eight players who gave it their all this week — Eric Lui 7d, Ben Lockhart 7d (who also participated in a video commentary), Aaron Ye 7d, Andrew Lu 7d, Daniel Gourdeau 6d, Jeremy Chiu 6d, Sarah Yu 6d, and Manuel Velasco 5d — they are all a credit to the game and an inspiration to go players of all levels.
Finally, if you're interested in being on the E-Journal team at future events — it's a lot of fun and a great way to improve your game — send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Eric Lui Wins AGA Pro Tourney to Become Latest US Professional
Friday January 8, 2016
For Eric Lui, the fourth time was the charm. Lui (left) has played in all four AGA Professional Qualification Tournaments, losing to Ryan Li in last year's final, but on Friday afternoon he became the American Go Association's fifth professional, defeating Aaron Ye by resignation to close out a near-flawless performance this week with a 9-1 score, his only loss a half-pointer in the first round. "It's been a long week," Lui told the E-Journal immediately after clinching his win, "but it feels really good. The field was stronger this year." Lui said that he fully intends to pursue a career as a professional. "Now I have some decisions to make," he said, smiling tiredly. "Not right away, but soon." For amateur players who want to get stronger, the new professional's advice was to "Play a lot of games. Preferably in person, and fast games."
"Eric's determination and steadiness are a real inspiration," said AGA President Andy Okun, who was on hand all week at the Los Angeles tournament. "It heartens me to see his efforts rewarded."
Ye, in his first pro qualifier, turned in a strong performance with an 8-4 record, taking second place and earning a slot as a seed in the next qualification tournament. In the lower bracket, Ben Lockhart clinched 7th place by beating Manuel Velasco, who finished in 8th place. Andrew Lu defeated Daniel Gourdeau on Friday afternoon, so they'll play a third-game decider on Saturday morning, as will Sarah Yu and Jeremy Chiu. Lu and Gourdeau will battle for third place, while Yu and Chiu will compete for fifth; the games start at 9:30a Pacific Time on KGS.

AGA Pro Tourney report: Eric Lui into finals, awaits opponent
Thursday January 7, 2016
Thursday morning's session at the AGA Professional Qualification Tournament featured just two games, Ben Lockhart vs Aaron Ye and Sarah Yu vs Andrew Lu, in a battle to move onto the semi-finals. Lockhart had an early lead but then played a couple of slow moves and Ye was able to pull ahead; a huge semeai then developed and Lockhart missed the critical move to win the capturing race (click here to see Myungwan Kim's brief video commentary). Sarah Yu, who had played tengen in her Wednesday night match against Lu, played a similar center move Thursday, explaining afterwards that she felt the 7.5 komi was heavy and this would lead to more favorable josekis. However, she failed to make effective use of her unusual move and Lu gained the advantage. This game also developed into a crowd-pleasing semeai (click here for Myungwan Kim's video commentary).
In the afternoon matchups, Eric Lui defeated Andrew Lu by resignation, advancing to the semi-finals. Daniel Gourdeau won against Aaron Ye; he lost against Ye in the round-robin, so they'll play again on Friday morning to determine who advances to the final with Lui. Ben Lockhart beat Jeremy Chiu, tying their match at 1-1; they'll play on Friday morning. Sarah Yu beat Manuel Velasco, knocking him into the bottom bracket; she'll await the winner in the Lockhart-Chiu game. The live KGS broadcast will start at 9:30a PST.

CORRECTION (1/8): Our original report did not indicate that Eric Lui is in the finals and that the winner of the Gourdeau-Ye game will advance to the finals.
AGA Pro Tourney Moves into Knock-out Section
Wednesday January 6, 2016
The round-robin section of the AGA Professional Qualification Tournament wrapped up Wednesday morning with few surprises except for second-seeded Ben Lockhart's 7th-place finish. Eric Lui was first, Aaron Ye second, Daniel Gourdeau third, then Andrew Lu in fourth, Sarah Yu was fifth, Jeremy Chiu sixth, and Manuel Velasco eighth.
The knockout section commenced on Wednesday afternoon as Los Angeles enjoyed a second straight day of rain, although of course the eight top-ranked North American go players at the Hotel Normandie were oblivious — or at least impervious –to the weather. The knockout section is a best-of-three, with the first game having already been played in the round-robin. Eric Lui had beaten Manuel Velasco in the round-robin and had no trouble with him on Wednesday afternoon, knocking Velasco down into the lower bracket. Daniel Gourdeau's win against Jeremy Chiu secured his place in the upper bracket as well. Sarah Yu had lost to Andrew Lu in the round robin, but won on Wednesday; they'll play to advance on Thursday morning. And Ben Lockhart, who had lost to Aaron Ye in the round-robin, beat him by a point and a half in the knockout, forcing a third game on Thursday morning. Both games will start at 9:30a PST on KGS.
A brief video of Myungwan Kim 9P's commentary on the Ye-Lockhart game has been posted on the AGA's YouTube channel.

Your Move/Readers Write: Pro Tourney Highlight Videos a Hit
Wednesday January 6, 2016
"I like the You Tube highlights from the qualifier games," says Bob Gilman. "These analyses of important situations provide insights in a readily digestible form. Longer game commentaries are good to have also, but they demand a big time commitment to watch, and it's easy to forget many of the points made. I hope you continue to do features like these."
"Just wanted to compliment the short videos," writes Keith Arnold. "While there is some suggestion that they were born of necessity and bad internet connection, I actually think they have been uniformly excellent, informative and just right for busy modern life and short attention spans."
The latest batch of pro tourney game highlights includes Sarah Yu (W) vs Manuel Velasco (B), Ben Lockhart (W) vs Aaron Ye (B) and Jeremy Chiu (W) vs Eric Lui (B), all from the fifth round of the round robin.

Second-seeded Ben Lockhart has scored just two wins thus far, as have Jeremy Chiu, Sarah Yu and Manuel Velasco. The knock-out section begins Wednesday afternoon; it's a best-of-three match in which the first game was played in the round robin.

AGA Pro Video Highlights Feature Norman Tsai & Ben Lockhart
Tuesday January 5, 2016
In our latest batch of brief video game highlights focusing on key points in selected games, Norman Tsai 6-dan shows how Jeremy Chiu's attachment to unimportant stones in his third-round game against Andrew Lu causes him to choose the wrong direction of play. In Daniel Gourdeau's third-round game against Aaron Ye, Tsai explores what happens when a forcing move turns out not to be forcing after all. The dangers of gambling on a big kill are the focus of Tsai's review of Ben Lockhart's third-round game against Sarah Yu. And the problem of defending unimportant stones comes up again in Eric Lui's third-round game against Manuel Velasco. Finally, second-seeded Ben Lockhart reviews his fourth-round game against Manuel Velasco.
"I like these game extracts as they are wonderful illustrations of when applying basic principles would have made a big difference," comments Dontbtme. "It's illuminating, so thanks a lot."

Ke Jie Edges Lee Sedol by Half-Point to Win MLily Cup; AGA YouTube Coverage Draws Record Audience
Tuesday January 5, 2016
Ke Jie 9P edged out Lee Sedol 9P by the narrowest of margins — a half-point — to win the MLily Cup Monday night in a dramatic deciding fifth game that drew a record number of viewers to the AGA's YouTube channel, where Myungwan Kim 9P and Andrew Jackson provided blow-by-blow commentary to a nailbiting audience that hit just over 14,000 at its peak, far surpassing the previous record of 400 viewers. The winner collected not just this year's MLily international title and a purse of over $300,000, but bragging rights in the classic showdown between two go titans, one a seasoned veteran from Korea, the other a young rising star from China. The battle see-sawed back and forth, taking fans of both players on a wild ride, and went on until just past midnight on the West Coast, drawing intense attention worldwide — especially in Korea and China — and the AGA's broadcasting efforts, anchored by Kim and Jackson, brought the match to a much broader gaming audience on YouTube and Twitch. A report on Myungwan Kim's commentary was also featured in the Chosun news, helping to drive thousands of Korean viewers to the AGA's YouTube channel as well. The coverage even inspired one viewer to donate to the AGA. "I had such a blast on the live MLily Cup Game moderated by Andrew Jackson with the Myungwan Kim 9p comments) that I just donated $50 to the org, this is truely awesome!" wrote Indigonauts. "This is amazing that I can watch a professional #baduk match in English now. Thanks @theaga," added Christopher Annanie on Twitter. The AGA broadcast team also included Kevin Hwang, Peter Nelson, Steven Hu, Nick Sibicki, and more (we'll update this more completely asap).

General Comments
I wanted warm highlights and bought the 6.1 French Eclair. My hair IS dark brown. On the box it states "French Eclair is a cooler shade that will help minimize red/orange tones. Personal Highlights will turn from beige to gold." I am so disappointed and I hope this review will help some other poor soul realize that you should go to a salon. Now I have to go to Sally's and try to fix my own mess because I am thoroughly embarrassed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

text: She Bangs! She Bangs! Wow. Thats really stupid. But yeah, at least you got the shirt and to meet some awesome people. Personally, I lost in the semi-finals so I got no shirt and just got to meet awesome people instead. Which, actually, wasn't all that bad. EDIT: Speaking of awesome people I met, take a look-see at this wonderful man who happened to be at the Glendale, CA tournament at the Planet-X in the Galleria. Yes, that is the one and only William Hung of American Idol (and me, giddy like a little school girl)! I was anxious to see what William could do with his Pokemon. He had no Legendaries on his team, which put him at a disadvantage in an Uber loaded tourney, but with confidence he would tell me, "It also takes skill." He ended up being placed in the final battle of the first round, the 16th battle in this 32 man tournament, so the wait was long. Unfortunately, he had apparantly used Action Replay to modify his Pokemon and they were rejected by PBR. He admitted to modifying his pokemon to give them all 31 IVs and thought he would be able to get away with it as long as he had maintained legal stats. He accepted his automatic forfeit graciously with a simple, "Ok, I'll accept that." As for an actual report of the Glendale Tourney (Im not sure if anyone has covered it yet), here we go. The rules were simple: 4v4 Double Battle 1-490 I used a makeshift team consisting of: The opposing 31 teams were mostly made up of combinations of Mewtwo, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Palkia, and Dialga. Other Pokemon were rare. I was unable to handle all these Ubers and lost in the semi-finals. The tournament was finally won after over 4 hours of battling by a man who went with the handle "Psi". He had placed top 4 in a Pokemon masters tournament for the advanced generation in New York (I can't remember the tournaments name). Highlights in the tournament included my younger brother killing 2 Mewtwos with a Metagross Explosion while his Swampert used protect. People tended to cheer the half dozen trainers who didn't use Legendaries, so they went crazy over that. Unfortunately, he still lost when the opposing trainers last pokemon, a Palkia or Dialga, I cant remember which, came in and finished his Swampert with a Draco Meteor, knocking my little bro out in the second round. Even though I lost, I didn't really leave empty handed. I got that pic with William Hung that's going to be great as my Myspace default. Oh yeah, and I met a couple of cool guys there too. EDIT mark 2: The person who beat me, as well as his 3 cousins, were all blatantly using AR. I figured that since William Hung used AR and was not able to battle in PBR, if those four kids had used it to do something fishy they wouldn't be able to play either. I briefly thought about complaining but decided not to. Was I wrong? Could they have changed things in their favor other than stuff I wouldn't mind, like duplicating items and TMs?

Bukit Merah (Chinese: 红山, Tamil: புக்கிட் மேரா), also known as Bukit Merah New Town, and often abbreviated as either Bt. Merah or BM, is a planning area and residential town situated in the southernmost part of the Central Region of Singapore. The town borders Tanglin to the north, Queenstown to the west and the Downtown Core, Outram and Singapore River districts of the Central Area to the east. Bukit Merah also shares a maritime boundary with the Southern Islands planning area located beyond the town's southernmost point.
With the earliest records of Bukit Merah's existence in the Malay Annals, the town had a huge role to play in the early maritime trade of the Kingdom of Singapura.
The town's fertile red soil was employed to great effect, when it was a district rich in gambier cultivation during British colonial rule.[4]
Even before the industrialization of Jurong, Bukit Merah already had a small head start in the emerging heavy industry market in Singapore. With the first brickwork factories and mills emerging in the precincts of Henderson Hill and Redhill as early as the 1930s.[5]
The town is also home to the first housing estate in the country, Tiong Bahru Estate, which was developed by the Singapore Improvement Trust in the backdrop of a rapidly growing population in post-war Singapore. The estate later became the basis of what would eventually become the first new town in the Republic, Queenstown.

Bukit Merah translates to "Red Hill" in Malay, and is a reference to the red-couloured lateritic soil found on the hill. According to the Sejarah Melayu, Singapore used to be plagued by swordfish attacking the people living in the coastal regions. A young boy named Hang Nadim proposed an ingenious solution, to build a wall of banana stems along the coast at the present location of Tanjong Pagar. When the swordfish attacked, their snouts were stuck in the stems. With the swordfish problem solved, Hang Nadim earned great respect from the people, but also jealousy from the rulers. The King, Paduka Seri Maharaja, finally ordered his execution, and it was said that his blood soaked the soil of the hill where he was killed, giving rise to the red-coloured hill.[6]
The hill was eventually trimmed to its current state in 1973, when it made way for Redhill Close and what would eventually become Henderson Secondary School. During its existence, a Chinese cemetery was situated on the reverse side of this hill, which is today, the location of Tiong Bahru.
Keppel Harbour dates back to the 14th century when an ancient Chinese traveller, Wang Dayuan named the harbour as "Long-Ya-Men" or "Dragon Teeth Gate" after two rock outcrops located near Labrador Park, which resembled dragon's teeth. The two rock outcrops were subsequently blown up by the Straits Settlements Surveyor, John Thomson, in August 1848 in order to widen the entrance a new harbour.
Mount Faber was once known as Telok Blangah Hill. Its name was changed to Mount Faber after Captain Edward Faber cut the road up to the top in 1845 to set up a signal station. The Singapore General Hospital site dates back to 1882. Labrador Nature Park was used as a defence outpost in the 19th century until World War II.[7]
According to the various master plans laid out by the Urban Redevelopment Authority, Bukit Merah is bounded by Alexandra Canal and the Singapore River to the north and Harbourfront and Keppel Bay to the south, Kim Seng Road, Outram Road and Cantonment Road to the east and Alexandra Road to the west. There are several subzones within the planning area, namely Alexandra, Bukit Ho Swee, Bukit Merah Central, Depot Road, Everton Park, HarbourFront, Henderson, Redhill, Singapore General Hospital, Telok Blangah and Tiong Bahru.
Mass Rapid Transit[edit]
MRT stations that serve the town include Redhill and Tiong Bahru of the East West Line. Harbourfront and Telok Blangah MRT Stations of the Circle Line and North East Line. The future Havelock MRT Station of the Thomson-East Coast Line is also located in Bukit Merah, near to the Bukit Ho Swee estate, making Bukit Merah the planning area that has the second-most number of MRT lines passing through it, following the Central Area. The future stations, Keppel and Cantonment will be located within the new town as part of the Stage 6 of the Circle Line that will be completed by 2025.[8]
There are two bus interchanges and one bus terminal in the new town. The Bukit Merah Bus Interchange (红山巴士转换站), which serves Bukit Merah, is located at Bukit Merah Town Centre. Service Number 132 links the Interchange to Redhill MRT Station while bus services 5, 16, and 851 links the interchange to Tiong Bahru MRT Station. There are two feeder services originating from the interchange which serves the Telok Blangah estate.The HarbourFront Bus Interchange is located at the southern part of Bukit Merah, serving nearby amenities such as the HarbourFront Centre and VivoCity, the largest shopping mall in Singapore. The New Bridge Road Bus Terminal, is located along Eu Tong Sen Street, next to the Police Cantonment Complex, near Outram Park MRT Station.
Bukit Merah consists of several Primary and Secondary schools with Alexandra Primary School being the newest school.

This offseason is a critical one for Jeff Gorton and the New York Rangers. A team with significant holes and cap problems, the Rangers will need to get creative and possibly break a few fan's hearts in order to get back to respectability and a true chance at the Stanley Cup. Because one thing is […] The post Does it make sense to trade Rick Nash? appeared first on Blue Seat Blogs.

Video: Rick Nash scores without ever shooting the puck
When you are a superstar in this league, you are expected to do it all. When it is all going your way you don't have anything to complain about but when it falls apart you draw the ire of an entire fan base. This is a concept that isn't new to Rick Nash, who used to be the face of the Blue Jackets franchise and now is the face of the Rangers franchise. He has had a couple of...

IF the Rangers decide to trade Rick Nash, Detroit could be a fit
Eklund had a decent idea. No, the blog hasn't been hacked – I meant to write that. As whispers continue to grow that the Rangers are indeed seriously considering trading Rick Nash, the frequently mocked rumormonger "reported" that a potential destination for New York's top forward could be the Detroit Red Wings for a package […]

Rangers' Rick Nash Takes NHL Goal Scoring Lead In Win Over Bruins
Rick Nash strengthened his case for the Hart Trophy on Wednesday night. The veteran forward gave an excellent performance for the New York Rangers in a 3-2 win over the Boston Bruins at Madison Square Garden. Nash scored the first goal of the game on a breakaway at the 5:50 mark of the opening period. The goal was Nash's 32nd of the season, which moved him ahead of Washington...

"Eine kleine Nachtmusik? Nein, danke." Salzburg by andreslo2000
Salzburg Travel Guide: 2,699 reviews and 6,516 photos
Are you a music lover? I mean the real one, the one who can tell the difference between Mozart's Op.8 in D-mol and Chopin's Mazurka addagio in A-minor?
What do I hear you're saying? That you are only familiar with 2 or 3 Verdi's arias from Traviata and you've heard about Beethowen's Eroica but you're not really sure if you'd recognize it.
Well, in that case Salzburg is not the city you should vist. Just trust me!

Its style as well sets it apart as it is unlike anything else Gorham produced, or any other manufacturer for that matter, with the exception of Towle's "Spider" which has a very similar form.
It is in the Aesthetic mode and likely dates c. 1880. The rounded, swooping handle has a scalloped upper edge ...
Highly detailed, the imagery is iconic. The bowl portrays the Chicago Herald building constructed in 1891, which date appears on the lower portion of the handle. There is a pennant that reads "Herald" flying from the flagpole atop the building.
Close inspection reveals a figure standing on a pediment placed on a...
The main feature of the pattern is striping that runs up about two-thirds of the handle. This is more subtle than it appears, as the surface alternates between convex and concave and suggests banding, perhaps of a naturalistic material such as bamboo. This in turn implies an Aesthetic influence, which would be con...
The pattern is Corinthian. Apropos of the name, it has a fan or leaf design element akin to Gorham's Grecian patented in 1861, but overall is Moorish in feel. It is double die struck, meaning the design appears on both sides of the handle.
The bowl is plum shaped, with a central rib, flanged ...
The pattern is "Corinthian," which falls generally in a Moresque style with, as implied by the name, a nod toward classical Greek design.
The piece is a form commonly referred to as a "bucket ladle." The term derives from the shape of the bowl which is this case is 7/8" deep and 1 1/2" across at the top. The sidewalls are tapered and the interior is fini...
The 3/4" deep, nearly round, 2" diameter, bowl with a central vee, flanged shoulders, and slightly tipped lip, on this 6" long, 1.2 T. oz., sauce ladle is engraved in a Palmetto leaf motif that is evocative of Egyptian Revival style. The bowl interior also retains most of its original, bright...
This example is a 4 3/16" long, relatively weighty .8 T. oz., pair of sugar tongs.
A muli-motif floral design drawing from Aesthetic sensibilities, this pair features what appear to be peony blossoms, leaves, and branches.
The detailing is extensive, with a textured background adding character and depth to the overall imagery.
It is qui...
"Isis" was a major figure in the pantheon of ancient Egyptian deities. She is represented in this pattern by a pair of outstretched wings with a curled snake between them, which is a motif drawn from ancient sources.
This example is a 7 3/8" long, ...
The pattern is "Lady Washington" by Gorham. Dating from the 1870s, it is relatively early in the stable of the company's full line flatware designs.
It features an elegant and refined looking central female bust in profile. This is surrounded by swags, drapery, and trailing garlands of ivy vines and leaves. Th...
It dates from the late Art Nouveau period, as indicated by the "Pat. 1907" imprinted on the back of the handle. Other marks include Gorham's "lion, anchor, G," emblem, and "Sterling."
Pieces in this line tend to be large scaled, and that is the case with...
This piece is a 6 1/4" long, approximately .9 T. oz., sugar spoon.
It has an elongated, plum-shaped bowl with hatched edge shoulders. The interior has a matte finish.
The handle portrays a maiden in courtly garb, carrying a kettle in one hand and a pitcher and saucer in the other.
It is without a monogram or removal and in very good condition. It ...
This 5 7/8" long, .8 T. oz., ice cream spoon is an example of this partnership. It is stamped lion, anchor, G for Gorham, "Pat. 1864," "Tiffany & Co.," and "Sterling" on the plain backside.
The figure is a youthful helmeted male warrior. The blunt end bowl has a ribbed interior and notched and slightly flanged shoulders. The bowl evidences scant trac...
On Hold
That is evident on this piece which is marked "Sterling," indicating it was made after 1868 when Gorham adopted this standard over coin silver.
"Grecian" place pieces do not seem to appear as frequently as serving items, and this particular piece is surprisingly scarce.
It is in very fine condition. Polishing wear is minimal, w...
Each, two available
This line was made to an elevated standard of die work and finish. The portraiture is highly textured, the detail is precise, and the finishing is exemplary.

There is no monogram or removal and the condition is outstanding. Apart from light surface scratches in the bowl,...
Price for each piece individually.
Offerings in this line were made to a higher standard of finish and refinement than general production items, and that is the case in this instance.
The handles are a tipt backside "Old English" design while the fronts are acid etched with a "Humpty Dumpty" figure on the spoon and "Sim...
This 9 1/2" long, just over 3.0 T. oz., pie server is a show piece. It is all sterling silver, with as mentioned, a flattened oval shaped, hollow handle. This is joined to a narrow, solid shank, while the large blade is thick and has sculpted shoulders that have a double banded reinforcing ...
The pattern is "Imperial Chrysanthemum," which is a highly detailed floral design tending toward the Art Nouveau in style.
This is a particularly fine example. It has a delicate script "P" monogram on the front. There is no evident polishing wear and the bowl remains well-shaped and retains most of its original gold wash finish.

That Real Estate Show
Phoenix real estate goes old school
As the Phoenix market continues its transition from a "balanced" state towards one that favors prospective homebuyers, some forgotten terms have returned to the real estate lexicon.
"Concession" and "contingent" are the most prominent reentries.
"Contingent" is an offer placed on a home by a buyer that is conditional upon the sale of their own home, while "concession" refers to a request (or requests) granted by a seller to a buyer in order to facilitate a real estate transaction.
Both have been rare inclusions in real estate contracts in recent years, according to Phoenix real estate expert Tina Tamboer.
"We're starting to hear stories about contigent offers, which is something we haven't really (seen much of) in 10 years," Tamboer told That Real Estate Show. "So, when you think about it, there are going to be a lot of these old school tactics that might be coming into play in the next few months."
Old school also applies to home seller "concessions," which haven't been necessary in recent years, due to Phoenix's low home inventory situation.
"The seller's advantage has pretty much dwindled away," said Tamboer. "Our entire market right now is in balance, so basically what that means for sellers is that (they) may want to consider those seller concessions again."
Some common seller concessions include monetary contributions to help cover closing costs, appraisal/inspection fees and/or home warranties. More unusual examples would be upgrade allowances or purchasing furniture or appliances for the new home. All of these examples, however, would depend on the individual seller's motivation and circumstances, as well as the condition of their home. Still, there's evidence that some sellers in Phoenix are finding creative ways to set their home apart and get the deal done.
"Sellers are getting aggressive," said Tamboer, who recounted a recent story of a buyer asking for and receiving the installation of a new garage from a seller.
These types of stories may increase, as Phoenix's real estate market becomes one that favors buyers. According to Tamboer, the cities of Tempe and Queen Creek already fit that classification, and Anthem, Peoria and Gilbert could become buyer's markets very soon.
In other words, if you're getting ready to move, you may also want to get ready to negotiate.
Listen for more Phoenix real estate news with Realtors Diane Brennan and Rod Lakin on That Real Estate Show Saturdays at 3 p.m. on News/Talk 92.3 KTAR.

Meet the corn plant
Dracaena, commonly called corn plant, is an easy houseplant to grow in low, medium and high light conditions. Its ribbon-like leaves come in solid green and variegated forms. The plant needs minimum water, and can grow 5 feet wide and 20 feet tall. When the plant gets too tall for a room, you can easily cut off the top tip and root that section into a new plant. Pest and disease problems are few.KENNETH D. LYONS, DAILY PRESS

I recognized some of the music that was used in this. It's great how you brought so many talented artists together. I don't know much about the politics of this, but it seems like something worth going for. Tom Fulp is probably the richest person on this website. $10,000 should be easy for him. This is a pretty big step.
I love how you're standing up for us ordinary people. I mean, the people who don't create stuff like this and make money off it. You guys are so popular, you should make enough revenue. I'm probably not going to give any money into this. I hope all goes well.
What would be a really nice idea is to open this up to other musicians/artists so that they can make their own humble bundle in the future, but again this is an experiment first.
The only issue with it that I can see is that people will still evade copyright so people can get copies for free, but it should be more of a motivation for those who want to make something more of it. I REALLY hope this works and, even better, becomes a common thing to do.
like Newgrounds: The Forsaken City everyone believes it is an awesome idea and i am sure everyone wants it but I am worried it will become just like that kickstarter and fail to reach the goal by the deadline
don't let this happen again we already lost one great kickstarter idea let's not lose another
incredible idea will enhance the work of artists, animators and programmers
Nice idea

Skip to comments.The Genius Gap (Are Boys the Second Sex?)
Posted on 06/08/2010 11:32:41 AM PDT by nickcarraway
Whats happening to the boy genius? Outside of fantasy fiction, he seems to be a shrinking breed. New Yorks gifted-and-talented schools are overstocked with girls, a recent Times study found. In some gifted classrooms, three-fifths of the students are female. Yes, we know girls are smart and dutiful and hardworking, but this phenomenon confounds whats long been considered the natural order. Could it really be that boys are now the struggling class, in need of help or affirmative action?
Experts have been warning about the boy crisis for years, but the idea has never really taken holdpartly because it originated as a crusade of the anti-feminist right. (Christina Hoff Sommers introduced it as a culture-war issue with her book The War Against Boys: How Misguided Feminism Is Harming Our Young Men.) Yet empirical evidence continues to mount that boys, as a class, may no longer have what it takes to succeed in school.
For at least a decade, a subtle shift has been happening in the educational system that seems to be working against boys, who tend to be later verbal bloomers. New initiatives have emphasized more literacy skills in preschool, long before boys are ready. And early standardized testingnow the normsets up boys to see themselves as academic failures. To apply for a gifted program, children as young as 4 are required to sit through hour-long verbal exams. The patience and communication skills required all play to the strengths of girls.
It doesnt take a degree in child psychology to see whats happening here, says Richard Whitmire, author of the new book Why Boys Fail. A test heavy on verbal skills aimed at the very early grades is going to turn up more girls than boys. Im surprised the gifted gender gaps arent larger.
Whitmires book is full of anecdotes of honors classes full of girls, from elementary school on up. He blames a regime that fixates on preparing children for college starting in kindergarten. Why are they testing for gifted that early? he asks. Its not intentional bias, but the same question applies here as with race: Do you judge bias by outcome? If so, yes, this is bias.
To be fair, boys do tend to catch up to their female peers on both math and verbal test scores by high school. New Yorks eight gifted high schoolsStuyvesant, Brooklyn Tech, etc.have more boys enrolled than girls. But these particular statistics fail to capture the broader new reality for boys and men in the U.S.: They are less likely to graduate from high school and less likely to get a college degree.
Australia, New Zealand, and other countries have national initiatives to address the boy crisisproviding male teachers, boy-centric reading material, and lessons in technology. Here, educators have tried the occasional experimentsingle-sex classes, for examplebut they are resistant to the idea that boys, in a nation still ruled by men, are really in trouble. But as Whitmire likes to point out, this is a future problem: Men not achieving in school means men not going to college means men with no job prospects means men rejected as suitable marriage prospects by smarty-pants girls.
its the war on boys.
an equally smart boy and girl will have the system pick the girl to "make up" for some fantasy wrong.
Actually the reason is that we're drugging our bright with drugs so idiots don't feel bad about themselves. All about self esteem dontcha know?
I have observed that women have an extremely difficult time rising above mediocrity.
Harrison Bergeron must be stopped.
Or we could say it without blaming the victim: schools no longer have what it takes to succeed in teaching boys.
Blaming the messenger even after admitting "social justice" quotas may play a part in this disparity.
The so-called feminist movement is NOT pro-woman. NOW defended a serial rapist who was accused of workplace sexual harassment, supports infanticide, defends planned parenthood (who hide details about minors who are sexually molested by adults)...
Calling the socialist "feminist" movement a women's movement is a lie. It is Communist. It comes out of the Soviet "women's movement" (International Women's Day, etc.), not the sufferage movement (which had a Republican background).
Probably due to the pussification of the boys in our public schools.
Boys are not a "class", they are a sex/gender. But then that means it would be discriminatory to single them out for mistreatment...
That and boys aren't allowed to be boys nor do they have all that many good role models.
I have noticed in our GT schools that selection is based on numbers. A certain % boy, girl, race, ethnicity etc... They want the GT school/classes to "look" just like the other regular schools and classes. Even in elementary school, the "higher" math and science classes are manipulated to be "even". So, a student may be put into a "lower" class than he is suited for if his race/sex/ethnicity is already represented by %. Been there, still there, bought the t-shirt And sent the post card on this one.
Harrison Bergeron must be stopped.
That's right
Required reading for everyone
Call out the equality of everything cops, now
Get his chains ready.
Hanna is gonna tell us how boys aren't gifted ...
Most of the teachers these days are women who also happen to be NEA union members. I'd say 90 percent of the teachers today lean Left. It's similar to the percentage of those who lean Left that work in the LSM.
Could it really be that boys are now the struggling class, in need of help or affirmative action?
Yeah since y'all attacked them unmercifully for 20 odd years.
They don't need affirmative action but they need to be left to be boys.
Idiots caused this problem even when they were warned they were doing so.
The war on boys is just a battle in the war on men.
And I am disgusted with it.
Put your own damn seat down.
During this period of history where we are still skimming the cream off the top of the non-European countries, this is the wrong thing to do!
Perhaps women have always been smarter. Who knows? Women being encouraged in their intellectual pursuits is only a 100 year old phenomenon.
I think the more likely explanation is that the last few generations of intelligent have had more girls than boys. Hence the higher current number of female geniuses. It is proably random and incidental.
Plus the fact that in America we tend to love our daughters and don't abort them as in other (Eastern) cultures, which also skews the data.
Next you will know they are Socialists if they start calling it "the struggle", which has been the phrase used by Leftists since Hitler's Mein Kampf onward...
Geez, I really struggled typing that paragraph.
Niuhuru nailed it.
True-there are not that many female Einstein's and concomitantly, fewer women with severe mental issues.
It's not just boys now. There is a whole generation of women that either despise men or feel that men are only here to bust their ass to make their life easier, depending which hormone is in charge that day.
As always, these are mostly liberal women, so if you are a woman reading this and you aren't offended, it probably doesn't mean you. If you are, well, the shoe just might fit.
That's the trouble with empiricism. The empirical evidence showed that black slaves were ignorant and incapable of functioning in our society as free men.
Doesn't explain the radical disparity.
I think girls are more dutiful to study, which enables a larger cohort to get to, and graduate, from college as well. As the most successful and smart people tend to bear children later in life, this (in my opinion) also makes them more likely to have girl children. I have noticed this among horses as well-the older the mare, the more likely she is to have fillies. Nature's way of replacing themselves, I guess.
Great points.
No, that alone does not explain it, but I made other points in my initial post.
Basically, I believe it is probably random.
Probably less than 90%. Probably closer to 70%. In 1992, 40% of NEA members voted for George H.W. Bush. It bcame a matter of controvrsy at the convention that year that close to 90% of all contributions went to Democratic candidates. That was because the national board was solidly Democratic.
On the other hand, the reigning philosophy in public education is progressivism. Education is equated with social engineering.
If boys mature more slowly and aren't prepared for or in need of enriched classes until they are older, I don't see the problem. The point of such classes is to better teach those for whom the regular coursework is too easy. (And if boys dominate at the level of graduate physics classes, as I belIeve they do, I don't see the problem there either.)
Exactly. What critics of IQ differences usually focus on is the conclusion that there are fewer really, really, really smart women out there. They forget that there are also fewer really, really, really dumb ones too.
There are far fewer good male role models at schools anymore. They've drummed out virtually all the normal, male teachers under a number of schemes and reasons. They need to see and be taught and have respect for good male role models embodied in teachers.
I thank God I went through school in the years I did. Lots of guy teachers in all subjects, worth respecting back then.
Depends on what one means by genius. Terman's geniuses included no Einsteins.
We aim to please.
30 years ago when girls weren't succeeding in school it was "fix the schools!" Now that boys aren't succeeding in school it's "fix the boys!"
(not original with me)
And we have a winnahhhh!
Step right up, sonny, and claim your prize:
And intellectual exploration of exactly how RIGHT you are.
First, the History Tour.
Then, the Underground History Tour.
Once you complete both you will be able to clearly see how it has come to be that "Public Education" may well be a greater evil than complete ignorance. As bad as it is considered to be, at least ignorance doesn't exploit, deride, and defile the innocence of children.
When females take over a profession, the males flee.
Or a genius boy will get bored and antsy, then be stuck on Ritalin "for acting like a boy."
Then he won't be a genius any more.
I ALWAYS put the lid down. Looks 10 times better and toddlers and pets don't fall in.
To me it's not about the seat, I'd rather you put the lid down the way I do for the reasons given and the seat will take care of itself.
I am also the only woman I know who consistently defends treating boys like boys and not like women in training. I am particulary vocal with one of my sons, who is a teacher, because I know he is under a lot of pressure from the feminized education system to treat boys like girls. He doesn't, but I want him to know that not all women think that way.
Men and women are different from each other - not better or worse. Those different skills and aptitudes should be encouraged and developed not smothered because too many women can't see how much men bring to the table.
Hahah - that bit of Vonnegut scifi came to mind to me too reading this.
"the feminized education system to treat boys like girls."
This is exactly what I see - my son says he hates to read, but the crap they want him to read in school is, just that, crap. He loves to read his SI for kids, he loves to read the "Bone" series (which is discouraged at school because it's a "comic-book-type" series). Amazing, when he starts to read something that's interesting...he actually enjoys it.
The long school day (with lots of non-learning going on) plus homework is ridiculous for boys who want to go out and play, which is what boys (and girls) should be doing.
In their effort to make education more girl friendly, they changed subjects that boys were strong in - math and science.
Take a look at the textbooks - what used to be number problems are now 'word' problems - and girls have always been early readers. I realized the problem when it took my son ten minutes to figure out the name of the tribe that was collecting a certain kind of bean (of course that was part of the multi-cultural connection, which adds $$$ to price of textbooks).
In english classes, comprehension tests are based on paragraphs of nonsense that I've had a tough time trying to figure out what they were looking for - and english/reading were the only subjects I was reallllly good at! It's all touchy feely nonsense. Boys start to fail, get pushed into vo-tec classes. If they actually make it to college, things start to turn around in the math/science fields where boys excel. The trick is to get them thru high school.
A consequence of socialism.
You base 70 percent on your own experience in the public eduction field?
Meanwhile the Chinese roll out the red carpet for their gifted and bright.
Actually, that IS the distribution -
female geniuses, and idiots, are rarer
than male geniuses and idiots.
The IQ distribution curve is fatter in the middle for females
than for males.
Institutionalize schooling just doesn't work for boys, for the most part.
Some would rather read while hanging upside down off the arm of the couch.
|...if boys dominate at the level of graduate physics classes, as I belIeve they do, I dont see the problem there either.
You're right, they do. What you'll never hear unless you look into it for yourself is that the vast majority of these are 'boys' from other countries, principally India and China. Do not be fooled: the boys in this country are being deliberately dumbed down by social engineers who are fashioning what they believe will be a feminist utopia. The slots in the graduate physics programs are going to Indians and Chinese males because our students -- male or female -- cannot compete. Other countries do not deliberately dumb down their male children. We do.
A lot of people around here were surprised that Socialists could form a voting majority in the United States in 2008, by getting the recently-educated to the polls. People just don't want to believe that the schools are as Orwellian as they are.
This isn't going to change. People don't really want to believe it, and ultimately they don't care. It'll be 20 or 30 years before the fact that all the advances in the hard sciences are taking place elsewhere comes back to bite us. By then, it'll be too late.
