The young lady who was in shift was extremely rude and made us wait at the counter for over 1 hr and wanted us to pay the priceline commission as well if we have to switch to a double bed room. She claimed that they only received 15$ less after commission. The breakfast was good. The bathroom door wont lock. I dint even bother to tell because she was extremely rude. We checked in at 9 PM for 1 night and she wants us to come back in morning to check with her boss to change the room ( who wants to change the room when leaving the room) . The last thing i would do is to stay in this room. ...

We did a one night stay here as a result of being in town for a wedding. It was a perfectly adequate hotel to stay in for an evening - nothing too fancy, but clean enough to be comfortable. I would stay here again if I need to stay in the area.

AM (wish it had gone until 10:00 AM).
Relatively clean, friendly staff, decent prices. A good alternative to staying in Lansing or East Lansing if you're attending a sporting event or other large function at Michigan State.

Mobile & Wireless: It's a 1D world, but 2D is coming on strong
October 28, 2011 - MMH Editorial
2D bar codes and camera-based imaging is one of the brightest spots in the data capture space. That was one of the takeaways of our annual look at the top 20 suppliers of automatic data capture technology, which Modern does in conjunction with VDC Research Group. VDC is predicting the demand for 2D imaging will outpace all other bar code technologies through 2015.
You'll get no argument about that prediction from John Britts, senior director of product management for advance data capture at Motorola Solutions, which was once again number one on the top 20 list. "We're seeing the same thing at Motorola Solutions as they're seeing at VDC," he says.
The ostensible reason for our conversation was the announcement of some new camera-based products from Motorola. But most of our conversation was about the market. In part, Britts says the growth is being driven by new service-oriented applications that are bringing bar coding into new territories, such as the hospitality desk at hotel chains, retailers sending coupons to mobile phones, quick response codes for retail promotions and using your mobile phone to check into an airline. But 2D is also finding a home in data rich industries, like consumer electronics and auto manufacturing.
"If you look at a cell phone package, you'll see there are four or five bar codes on the side of the box," says Britt. "With a traditional laser scanner, I have to capture those one at a time. With one pull of the trigger on a camera-based imaging system, I can capture all of those images simultaneously and distribute them separately to a host system."
Similarly, camera-based imaging is allowing more efficient processes at work stations in a manufacturing facility. Rather than print and apply bar codes that are read by a laser scanner, a camera-based imaging system can read a 1D or 2D bar code displayed on an LCD. "I can read the code directly off the display and eliminate the printing step," says Britts.
Behind it all is the demand for more information. In addition to the product information contained on a 1D bar code, a 2D code can provide a product description, a product date and a lot code, all of which can be used for tracking and tracing after a product is distributed or sold.
"It's still a 1D world in the supply chain," says Britts. "That's because most of the governing bodies and many countries still have 1D standards, but that will change."

SDCC: Marvel's "Doctor Strange" Combats "Death and Pain" in New Trailer
Comic Books, Film
End of semester madness and holiday travel kept me from regular updates on the blog but I can't let the whole of 2009 go without some commentary. So you all get a list of manga released in 2009 that meant something to me. It isn't quite a "best of" list, nor it is exactly a "favorites" list either. It's a little more complicated than that but I find that this format better reflects my experience of manga in the past year.
The Heavy Weight: Ooku: The Inner Chambers by Fumi Yoshinaga, published by Viz. In a million years I never really dreamed Ooku would be published in the U.S. And I certainly couldn't imagine that one day Viz would confound all expectations and devote a significant percentage of its monthly output to manga for adults (under the Viz Signature imprint). Since I first discovered Yoshinaga's work in the aisle of my local Waldenbooks in the summer of 2005 (DMP's over-sized format of Antique Bakery seemed destined catch my eye in those halcyon days when every manga reading experience was a new adventure to me), I feel like I've been on an odyssey that was inspired partly by her distinctive and apparently limitless ability to find something new and remarkable in the most routine aspects of the human condition (eating, talking and sex clearly being her favorite subjects). I love Ooku for its own and many merits, but I also love it because it feels like a form of personal fulfillment for loving manga for five years now. (My review of vol 1 of Ooku can be found here, and vol 2 here.)
Entertainer of the Year: Slam Dunk and REAL by Takehiko Inoue, published by Viz. Inoue's two comics about basketball couldn't be more different and yet each has something unique to offer the reader. I love Slam Dunk for its silliness, for its sheer entertainment factor, and for making sports fun. I love REAL for its sensitive portrait of trauma and recovery and for not backing away from the ugliness of suffering. I love seeing both these books being released together because they showcase Inoue's versatile talent and surprising staying power as a storyteller (Slam Dunk feels so fresh, it is hard to believe it is practically 20 years old now). However, mostly I love Inoue's works because they never feel bounded by their genre or their category. I never feel like I'm on the outside, with my nose pressed against a window, trying to see into a dimly lit club where I don't belong (as I sometimes do when I read shonen titles). (I reviewed vol 5 of REAL here, and volumes 2, 3, and 4 of Slam Dunk here).
The Heart Breakers: Emma by Kaoru Mori, published by CMX, and Fruits Basket by Natsuki Takaya, published by Tokyopop. Oh dear, two manga that broke my heart, mended it, then broke it all over again out of the sheer beauty of it all. Both these series concluded in 2009 and while on the surface they couldn't be more different in tone, narrative and artistic sensibilities, I find that each has left an indelible mark upon me as a comics reader.
Takaya was my first experience with the shojo sneak attack, as I thought I was reading a lighthearted tale about a very strange family with a little "quirk," but ended up reading about overlapping and cathartic emotional journeys to hell and back. Very few series ever manage to make good on the promise of their premise but Takaya does more than make good — she makes the gradual unfolding of these character's hearts unforgettable. And bless her, she can also make me laugh and then cry on a dime and yet never feel badly used as her devoted reader.
In her lovely and often restrained work on Emma, Mori had made it clear from the first pages that she had an uncanny ability to portray a particular time and place. I was so caught up in the intricacies of Emma's world — a lace handkerchief, a pair of glasses, even a single wilted flower could keep my attention — that I found myself completely caught off guard when certain text-less images suddenly made me cry. It was her careful and delicate way of capturing everyday life — never has the mirror of how we view the world been both so beautiful and so heart-wrenching.
The Odd Balls — Detroit Metal City by Kiminori Wakasugi, published by Viz, Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei by Koji Kumeta, published by Del Rey, Moyasimon: Tales of Agriculture by Mayasuki Ishiwaka, published by Del Rey. 2009 saw the release of three manga with enough attitude and individuality to knock my cute little argyle socks socks clean off. While I certainly liked each of these titles individually, it is when I consider them as a group that I'm impressed by the sheer amount of quirkiness currently available in English. I found DMC to be the funniest of the three, Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei the most challenging (all those cultural references to keep track of!) and Moyasimon the most novel. While I find I don't prefer one particular title of the three, I also know that these works offered me a change of both pace and vantage point in ways no other works did in the past year (I reviewed Detroit Metal City vol 1 here and vol 2 here, Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei here, and Moyasimon vol 1 here).
The Contender: GoGo Monster by Taiyo Matsumoto, published by Viz. I'll be honest — although I often pick up the award-bait manga releases they rarely speak to me in the way the more commercial stuff does. GoGo Monster was thankfully an exception. Tatsumoto creates a fantastical tour de force of pre-pubescent abnormal psychology — as a storyteller he took me into the strange, claustrophobic, and rather disturbed mind of one Japanese elementary school student and then made me crawl out the hard way. This work is compelling and challenging but also entertaining…and on that level it succeeds when other artistically-inclined works have left me cold. It should also be noted Viz did an absolutely fantastic job in its presentation of the work, allowing the material book to contribute to the thrill of this read.
The Sleeper: The Name of the Flower by Ken Saito, published by CMX. I was overwhelmed by this incredibly touching modern-day version of Jane Eyre. It shares with that venerable classic the basic story of a young, innocent but determined orphaned girl who falls in love with a tormented older man. But that description only covers the basic similarities, it hardly accounts for the depth of feeling and sentiment Saito manages to convey in her characterization. While terrible external events happen to characters in this manga, it also shows how humans can end up hurting themselves the most. Although that is a pretty dark truth, just like in Jane Eyre this story also holds that love for others — and perhaps for oneself — is the path out of self-imposed darkness to redemption.
The Supreme Kickers of Almighty Ass — Black Lagoon by Rei Hiroe, published by Viz, and Dogs: Bullets and Carnage by Shirow Miwa, published by Viz. Until Black Lagoon I had never really felt much love for an action title — I was a self-proclaimed shojo girl after all. But I fell for Black Lagoon and fell hard. I think this series works so well me because of the charismatic relationship between Rock and Revy. Rock stands in for the reader as an (supposedly) normal outsider stranded in a violent and crazy world and Revy stands in for the both the beauty and ugliness of this world. Together they make a whole, if incredibly flawed, person and there's practically an electrical charge when they are on the page together. In other words, I find that I am perversely into this action title for its characterization. This love might lead to heart break in the end but right now the title hasn't steered me wrong yet. In contrast, I feel Dogs is a mess of a title — confusing, often disconcerting, and yet oddly compelling. Reading Dogs is like riding a roller coaster — I'm always a little dizzy and nauseated when I get off this particular ride…but also a little exhilarated. In the end, any action title that can make me feel anything has accomplished something pretty special, particularly considering that I don't tend to take to these works easily. (I reviewed Black Lagoon vol 1 here, vol 5 here, vol 7 and 8 here. I reviewed Dogs vol 0 here, vol 1 here, vol 2 here).
For the Love: Itazura Na Kiss by Kaoru Tada, published by DMP. Sometimes the designation of "classic" can also mean something that remains fresh in spite of its years. Kiss made me feel like I was standing at the crossroads of shojo with a creator who seemed to know which way to go and how to get the reader there with relative ease (while entirely too many of her followers fumble in the dark and insult the reader at every turn). Her humor, her flair, the alternating tartness and sweetness of her characters, make this a remarkable example of how shojo doesn't have to be crazy melodramatic or fantastical to have an impact. It only has to have something interesting to say about people and certainly this work does much more than that. It also charms as it says it. (My review of volume 1 is here).
Did the weird faux-history of Emma not bother you? I tried to read it as an alternate universe Victorian England, but it kept making me laugh, rather than being touching. I did like the art, though.

lilacsigil — well, I think Mori gets a lot more right than wrong (there a few glaring mistakes, the biggest being for me the airplane model in one of the early volumes and the car as well….maybe I'm missing more?).

Oh, Ooku isn't about Samurai (if you click on my reviews you'll see Ooku is an alternate version of Japan where 75% of the men have been wiped out by plague)…but have you read Inoue's Vagabond?

Re: Emma's airplane
The model aircraft that William Jones had is a fairly accurate representation of an aircraft concept that dated from the mid- to late-1800s. Unlike his model, it never flew, but there were many designs that never flew. I wrote a response to someone's review of (just?) the volume that included the airplane (1st book?) on another blog, and included a couple of links to some aviation history websites, but I can't remember where that was… ^_^; IIRC, the anime actually used a more modern design that is out of place. As far as the car goes, I didn't bother looking that up, but I'm expecting that it wasn't as out of place as it seems.
I read Emma volume 10 last week, and it was beautiful. ^_^
Thanks, Chris! That information and much appreciated and those details are something I've always wondered about.
Emma volume 10 was wonderful — I love how Mori makes the characters earn the good stuff…happiness is always a little bittersweet in her manga.
Danielle: Sorry, I goofed! ^_^;;;;
I should have taken the quick step of actually looking at the manga, and not relying solely on my memory. I was reading another Emma review with the same complaint, so I went and got out my copy of volume 1. It was Kaoru Mori that got the airplane wrong, and the anime staff corrected her mistake (not the reverse, as I was remembering). A link that I found (used before? Maybe, maybe not) shows the design that I believe the anime used (my DVDs are definitely not as accessible as my manga), the Aerial Steam Carriage from the 1840s: http://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay/Prehistory/mid-19th_century/PH3.htm . Mori's plane is the one that seems as though it belongs in the 1910s or '20s (propeller at the front, enclosed engine and cockpit, etc).
heh! No worries, thanks for coming back with more information! (And I had really wondered about that propeller on the plane, which certainly seemed 20th century to me)

Woman dies after crashing into SUV; car caught fireJanuary 29,2013
JAMAICA — Authorities say a car skidded across a snow-covered southern Vermont road and crashed into a large SUV before catching on fire, killing a woman.
State police say the collision happened Monday afternoon in the town of Jamaica.
A preliminary investigation shows that a car was traveling southbound on Route 30 when the female driver lost control and the vehicle skidded across the road. It crashed into a northbound SUV driven by 48-year-old Gavin Scotti, of Greenwich, Conn.
Authorities say the car caught on fire shortly after the crash, and the driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Her name is being withheld until family can be notified.
Scotti and his 14-year-old passenger were taken to a hospital to be treated for minor injuries.

How can I show that following: If $F\subseteq TM$ is a smooth distribution then $F$ is vector bundle and the inclusion $F\hookrightarrow TM$ is a morphism of vector bundles?
Using @Steve 's idea I did a sketch but I don't know if that's all right: Suppose $F$ is rank $k$ distribution. Consider the projection $\pi:F\rightarrow M$, $F_p\mapsto p$, where $F_p\subseteq T_pM$. We will show $(\pi, F, M)$ is a rank $k$ vector bundle:
(i) The fiber $\pi^{-1}(p)=F_p$ is a $k$-vector space for $F$ is a rank $k$ distribution.
(ii) Since $F$ is smooth given $p\in M$ there is an open neighbourhood $U\subseteq M$ containing $p$ such that $$F_q=\sum_{i=1}^k\alpha_iX_i(q),$$ for smooth vector fields (which are smooth sections of $TM$) $$X_1, \ldots, X_k\in \mathfrak{X}(U),$$ and scalars $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_k$. Define, $$\phi:\pi^{-1}(U)\rightarrow U\times \mathbb R^k,$$ setting $$E_q=\sum_{i=1}^k\alpha_iX_i(q)\mapsto (q, x),$$ where $x=(\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_k)\in\mathbb R^k$. I guess $\phi$ defined this way will furnish me a diffeomorphism, but I didn't prove that yet, what you think @Steve and @Federica?
$F$ being a smooth distribution means by definition (according to most standard references):
first, the fiber $F(m)$ is a $k$-dimensional subspace of the tangent space $TM(m)=T_mM$, for some global integer $k$,
and second, that given a point $m \in M$ there is a neighborhood $U$ of $M$ and smooth sections $f_1,\dots,f_p$ of $TM$ such that the fiber of $F(u)$ over any $u \in U$ is spanned by $f_1(u),\dots,f_p(u)$.
Fix $m \in M$. Choose $f_1,\dots,f_k$ such that $f_1(m),\dots,f_k(m)$ are a basis for the fiber $F(m)$. In coordinates, the condition that $f_1(u),\dots,f_k(u)$ are linearly independent is expressed in terms of a determinant which is continuous in $u$. This means that they are linearly independent on a neighborhood of $m$ (since they are so at $m$) and therefore give a basis of $F(u)$ for each point $u$ in some neighborhood of $m$. Cover $M$ by neighborhoods of this type, and use the corresponding $f_1, \dots, f_k$ to construct a chart on each such neighborhood.

Clergy join campaign to get Washington Redskins to 'Change the Mascot'
Nick Wass, Associated Press
An American Indian tribe is leading a full blitz to change the name and mascot of the Washington Redskins pro-football team.
Last week a group of D.C.-area clergy joined the campaign to get the club to drop the Redskins name, which Native Americans consider an offensive slur, USA Today's Erik Brady reported.
"Black clergy have been the conscience of America," Oneida Nation representative Ray Halbritter said to a gathering of roughly 40 people on folding chairs in the basement of Plymouth Congregational United Church of Christ. "This is not a fight we could do by ourselves, or should do by ourselves."
The Oneida Nation is spearheading the Change the Mascot campaign that includes a website and a series of radio ads. Others who have joined the chorus for the change include members of Congress and President Barack Obama.
The Christian Post explored why religious and secular people should care about the controversy.
"I think Christians should be concerned because it's how we love others and how we treat others, not just in what we do, but in what we say," said Donnie Begay, a Navajo who works with Native American college students with Campus Crusade for Christ. "I think Christians could be at the forefront of righting some of the wrongs. Everything I've read, even the secular people, say it's the right thing to do."
The Rev. Graylan Hagler, senior minister at Plymouth Congregational United Church of Christ, urged clergy members to gather petitions at their churches to send to team owner Daniel Snyder and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, Brady wrote for Religion News Service.
"The derogatory term 'redskin' offends many Native Americans and others in this country," the petition says in part. "This word, defined in the dictionary as a slur, should not be publicly marketed and celebrated in America, which is built on the ideals of respect and inclusion. As representatives of our faith communities, we believe that this is a moral issue and we therefore have an obligation to step forward to join the Change the Mascot movement."
Shirl James Hoffman, author of "Good Game — Christianity and the Culture of Sports," told the Christian Post, "I think the NFL poses much more important issues to the evangelical community than the character of the mascots they use to promote their teams, issues which evangelicals seem uninterested in addressing. ... The unspeakable violence and the orchestrated effort by the NFL to sell it, the disconnect between the ethic of unbridled competitiveness, and the almost suffocating materialism that pervades not only the NFL but most of our high level sports all would rate a higher place on pressing problems that the church could deal with."

State Street woman denies growing potSeptember 19,2013By Josh O'Gorman
Staff Writer
A Rutland woman denied charges she was growing marijuana in her State Street home.
Tammy Duquette, 50, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court Monday to a felony charge of cultivating three or more pot plants, which carries a maximum penalty of three years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
According to an affidavit filed with the court, in late July, state police received a tip of a grow operation at 182 State St. When police arrived, they met Duquette outside, who reportedly told police she had three pot plants inside, records state.
Affidavits state Duquette allowed police to search her residence, and the search revealed a grow operation – including lights, timers, plant food and fertilizer – with 17 plants.
"While inside this room Duquette advised me that she was responsible for growing the marijuana plants and that she was not very good at it," Sate Police Detective Cpl. David LaChance wrote in his affidavit. "She advised she had been growing the marijuana plants for her own used (sic) and was not selling any of the marijuana."MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

Brittany Starr
How's it going guys? Not so good from the lack of posts and slim pickings here In the Hickory area. Been out of the game for a while and just moved back to the NC after a year up north.
As I said before with the lack of posts and not knowing who to trust on backpage I saw that Brittany Starr was posting ads again http://hickory.backpage.com/FemaleEs...-daily/7447381 and I have heard enough about her to take the plunge.
First off she only does Outcall which Is fine I like It that way but the problem was she said she only does HR Outcall and the price was high plus travel fee. I agreed based on the pics I have seen of her.
So she comes to me and arrives on time. She had a driver that sat in my driveway the whole time. Not cool but anyways I open the door and not to my surprise It never fails It's her but all the pics are older and she has put on weight. She was dressed In street clothes not what I was hoping for but she was here and she Is attractive with a great set of tits.
So we talked for just a few and then down to business. She Is a very sweet girl and her oral skills are awesome but were the problem came In was she wasn't the beautiful young sex girl In the pics she couldn't handle round two and then I paid for an HR and she was done and gone In 30 minutes. Will not see her again. Her skills are great but she Is way overpriced for what you get. Not full GFE. No kissing. Why Is It so hard to find a HOT girl that you can trust and will blow your mind with her beauty and skills? Someone point me in the right direction.

Big Changes. Southern Lady
I have seen good reviews for her in the past (I think prior to her moving). I tried to set something up with her a few weeks ago and didn't have any luck but am still interested. It is a bit of a drive for me, but closer than where she used to be I think.

Iran has delayed promised long-range missile tests in the Gulf and signalled that it is ready for fresh talks on its disputed nuclear programme, in an apparent softening in its stance in the international dispute that has been threatening oil supplies.
Iran's state media initially reported this morning that long-range missiles – capable of hitting Israel and US bases in the Middle East - had already been launched during naval exercises, in a further act of provocation after Tehran threatened to close off oil shipping lanes in the Gulf.
But Admiral Mahmoud Mousavi, deputy commander of the Iranian navy, later went on

All Rise...
Judge Jason Panella's last tango was in Nova Scotia. He's shooting for Casper, Wyoming next.
The Charge
A second chance at first love.
Opening Statement
With a bland package synopsis and a DVD cover that screams "Hallmark special," Last Tango in Halifax sets itself up to be one kind of show. Thankfully it's not that kind of show.
Facts of the Case
Alan (Derek Jacobi, Cadfael) and Celia (Anne Reid, Hot Fuzz) are both widowed and in their 70s. They were sweethearts once, when they were teenagers, but haven't seen each other in the 60 years since. Alan lives with his daughter Gillian (Nicola Walker, MI-5) and her son on a farm in northern England. Celia lives with her wealthy daughter Caroline (Sarah Lancashire, The Paradise) and her children. Thanks to the magic of the Internet, Alan and Celia bump into each other online and discover they still have feelings for one another.
Last Tango in Halifax features all six hour-long episodes of the show's first season.
The Evidence
I'll go out on a limb and say love stories featuring two elderly characters aren't that common, and even more rare when they're not ageist. So Last Tango in Halifax is a rare find indeed—smart, realistic, and doesn't treat its leads like doddering simpletons.
The show is loosely based on the experiences of show creator Sally Wainwright's mother, who was reconnected with her childhood sweetheart late in her life. Wainwright (Scott & Bailey) quickly sets up the central characters' relationship and lets their bond serve as the show's anchor. This is smart, too—Alan and Celia are wonderful, and their romance isn't treated as if its unrealistically precious. They're different sorts—he's gentle and from a blue-collar background, she's playful and sophisticated—but they fit together perfectly. I love how the show gives the couple ample time to just get to know each other; they talk, laugh, butt heads and come out the other side more in love than before. And while the show isn't a comedy per se, Alan and Celia are hoot, especially when they're together. Jacobi and Reid consistently nail their parts.
Last Tango in Halifax packs a lot of twists and turns into its six hours. Wainwright keeps the plot devices within the realm of possibility, too, which helps make the stories so captivating. Alan and Celia's families get ample subplots to help round the show out. Gillian, a widow herself, works several jobs to make ends meet while trying to keep her son from the bad influences of her suspicious brother-in-law Robbie (Dean Andrews, United). Caroline, a headmistress at an affluent private school, is struggling under the weight of all of the pressures in her life. As we spend more time with them, we get to see how complex their lives are, and some of the storylines are surprisingly gripping. (And, in one instance, surprisingly creepy.) It's a drama through and through, but one infused with a huge dose of comedy and romance (and it's never what I'd call a romantic comedy).
Last Tango in Paris works on the notions that normal people can have big dreams, and that people can forgive and grow to love people pushed the boundaries. The cast sells it all, too—Jacobi, Reid, Walker, and Lancashire are consistently excellent, but the supporting cast is also great. The characters feel refreshingly believable and interesting, and they're all treated like they matter regardless of their age or life circumstances.
The set: BBC's two-disc set of Last Tango in Halifax gets by just fine with its 1.78:1 standard definition transfer and Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo track. There's nothing noticeably wrong with either, but nothing really pops either (save for the occasional shot of the Yorkshire countryside). There are sadly no extras.
Closing Statement
Last Tango in Halifax is a lovely little show, full of warmth and some great (and believable) twists. While this set is severely lacking in extras, the show is still worth tracking down.

- Louise Bourgeois Paris, France, 1911 - New York, USA, 2010
- Date:1994
- Material:Iron, galvanized iron and paint
- Technique:Welding
- Dimensions:248 x 803 x 597 cm
- Category: Sculpture
- Entry date:1997
- Register number:AD00568
Louise Bourgeois used spiders as the subject of a number of drawings during the 1940s, and it was a motif that she would return to in a series of sculptures done in the 1990s. This piece, one of the first in the series, was shown in spring 1994 at the Brooklyn Museum, and purchased shortly afterwards by the Museo Reina Sofía. Spider presents an ambiguous image: behind the threatening appearance of this towering arachnid there is an allusion to the spider as protector against evil, a benefactor feeding on disease-carrying insects. On the other hand, there is a clear idea of shelter, as the spider forms an internal space (in the same way that the spider's web is both a food trap and a living space). But for Bourgeois, the animal's principal allusion is the archetype of the mother: patient, clean, hardworking and indispensable. The needle in the sculpture is a key biographical reference: the artist's mother repaired tapestries, which goes some way towards explaining the place occupied in her imaginary by the spider as a metaphor for the mother spinning, in the artist's words "the thread of life, a spider's thread cut by the mother."

Editor's note: ESPNHS is ESPNRISE.com's high school journalism program.
According to ESPNU's rankings, he is only the 80th-best small forward in the country.
Yet J.J. Moore isn't discouraged -- not at all. Summer means only one thing to Moore: basketball.
"I'm a basketball 24/7 guy," he said. "If it's street ball, going in the gym, workouts, anything, I don't care. I love it. I've done this every year."
An obscure 6-foot-6 senior swingman from Brentwood (N.Y.) High School, Moore is spending his summer playing as much ball as he can. When not playing with his AAU team, the New York Panthers, Moore plays street ball with his friends, works on drills in the gym or shoots 500 jump shots each day at a neighborhood park.
"I wouldn't change anything at all," Moore said about his summer schedule. "There's nothing else I'd want to do than play basketball."
This is the norm for ambitious basketball players during the summer. Players spend countless hours on the court practicing and playing pickup games. And there are a lot of opportunities for players to showcase their talents at AAU tournaments across the country.
Basketball leaves no time for some of the typical things teenagers do, such as having a summer job.
Then again, they really don't seem to mind.
"I love this game so much," said Michael Gilchrist of St. Patrick High School (Elizabeth, N.J.), ESPNU's No. 1-rated prospect in the Class of 2011. "I don't really think about summer jobs or anything like that. All I want to do is play."
His teammate said the same thing. "I just stay in the gym, all the time," said Kyrie Irving of St. Patrick, the No. 9 prospect in the Class of 2010. "This is the time when you grow as a person and a player."
For players like Moore, this also is the time to burst out onto the national scene.
"Summer ball was made for players like J.J.," says Ted Thomas, managing editor of LongIslandBasketball.com. "The one-on-one style of play enables him to fully display his considerable talents and skill set."
"In high school, there's not much competition. They are much shorter and not as skilled," Moore said. "This summer is going to be very important for me because then I can be out there. I can get my name out there and get to pick what college is right for me."
Moore joined the Panthers this summer because of the team's prestigious reputation and its national schedule, which features tournaments in California and Las Vegas.
The summer started for Moore with a strong showing at the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions in Virginia, where he made the all-tournament team. His performance impressed the scouts, and he soon received offers from Louisville, Marquette, Rutgers and St. John's.
Moore plans on visiting Connecticut, Louisville, Marquette, Pittsburgh, Providence and Rutgers before August.
"It's special being able to play basketball so much and getting these offers," Moore said.
While Moore seeks to continue what looks to be his breakout summer, Irving hopes to build on the foundation he established last summer.
In 2008, Irving was considered a mid-major prospect. After a standout performance at the Bob Gibbons Tournament playing for the under-16 New Jersey Road Runners, scouts began to pay attention. Irving led all age groups in scoring and 3-pointers, averaging 33.4 points per game and hitting 16 3-pointers during the tournament.
Then in July, scouts were even more impressed when the guard was named the most outstanding prospect of the Hoop Group Elite Camp.
"I set goals and had a mission that I tried to accomplish at the best of my ability," Irving said. "My goal was to get known and get schools to call me. I wanted to have the opportunity to pick whatever school I want to go to."
Before the start of his junior season, Irving received offers from many schools, including Connecticut, Duke, Florida, Memphis, Villanova and West Virginia. He is now regarded as a top-10 player in the 2010 class.
"This is the time when you separate yourself," Irving said of summer ball.
Judging by his work ethic, Irving's rise to fame shouldn't come as a surprise.
Starting in the summer after his freshman year, the 6-2 guard has spent five hours every day in a gym with his AAU coach, Sandy Pyonin. For the first hour and a half, he practices drills that focus on shooting and fundamentals. After a short break, he scrimmages with other gym rats in a highly scrutinized game, which Pyonin uses to teach the nuances of the game. Irving estimates that he gets in more than a 1,000 shots a day in all.
"[His work ethic is] as good as anybody I've ever had," Pyonin said. "He looks to play, he loves the drills. Drills are just as important as playing the games to him as well as me. He can be a great college player with a chance to play in the NBA if he continues to work hard."
Summer is a time when basketball players are able to spend countless hours on the court practicing drills and playing games. And although some high school students spend their time off from school working at a summer job, basketball players such as Moore and Irving are working to improve their games.

Welcome to CFA
The CALIFORNIA FENCING ACADEMY has taught fencing to many thousands of fencers in the Bay Area and Silicon Valley since 1986. CFA is a foil club that offers all levels of programs for complete beginners to elite world class athletes.
The CFA Coaches have produced endless youth to senior men and women elite US "A-Rated" fencers in all three weapons the foil, epee, and saber. These have included a very long list of National Champions and National Championship teams, Junior Olympic Champions and Team Finalists, US World Team members, World Championship top eight placements, and an Olympic silver medal, not to mention almost every one of our athletes being accepted to about every elite University around the country. The CFA staff is made up of International Elite Fencing Masters including Head Coaches Daniel and Ania Tibbetts, CFA Associate Coaches and Masters, Provost-at-Arms Assistant Team Coaches, and numerous USFCA Certified Junior Assistant Coaches.
On the CALIFORNIA FENCING ACADEMY (CFA) website below you will find the beginning fencing classes and camp schedule, as well as the on-line registration. Below you will also find some information and registration of the other divisions of the parent company CAL SPORTS CLUB INC (CSC). These programs include the CALIFORNIA ARCHERY CENTER (CAC), the CALIFORNIA NATURAL HORSEMANSHIP STABLE (CNHS), the CALIFORNIA MOUNTED COMBAT UNIT (CMCU), and the CALIFORNIA JUNIOR NATURALIST PROGRAM (CJNP), and last but not least our HORSES FOR HEROES PROGRAM (HFHP) for war veterans and care givers. At the bottom of this page you can also read about the founder of the club and his background that led him to build this diverse business of intertwined complimentary programs. We are currently putting the finishing touches on our new sport specific websites as well as a comprehensive CSC site for all of our programs.
All Cal Sports Club Instructors in fencing, archery, and horsemanship are formally trained and certified, first aide certified, TB tested, DOJ background checked, and Safe Sport educated and certified.
Thank you for visiting our site and we hope you find something that you like!
Spring & Summer Schedule-Registration
Fencing ~ Archery ~ Horsemanship ~ Outdoor Adventure ~ And More
FENCING Classes
The Introductory-Beginning Classes are for those with little or no experience. Learn the basic positions, footwork, terminology, safety, rules, ettiquite, and sportsmanship of Olympic fencing. In partnered drills you will learn to thrust, disengage, do feint attacks, actions on the blade, and various parries and ripostes. You even get to start fencing each other the second day of the session. It's a blast!
The groups are kept to a small ratio of about 8 students-4 pairs to each certified fencing instructor. The equipment rental fee is included in the class cost. Upon completion of the program you are ready to join the Novice-Intermediate level membership classes! These classes are held at the Cal Sports Club/California Fencing Academy Gym at 891 East Hamilton Avenue in Campbell.
ARCHERY Classes
The Introductory-Beginning Classes are for those with little or no experience. You are taught the basic form, technique, rules, and safety. You will shoot the natural technique with recurves, and Genisis bows for younger archers. You will continually level up by improving your accuracy and furthering your shot distance by individually adjusting your target further away. This is a family designed program so the whole family can shoot together so the adults, teens and youth are at the same time but are seperated bu age and levels based on shooting distance accuarcy. A dad and son (or mom) may also choose to shoot together.
The equipment rental fee is included in the class cost. Upon completion you are ready to join the Novice-Intermediate level membership class! The classes shown here are held at the Cal Sports Club/California Archery Center indoor range at 891 East Hamilton Avenue in Campbell.
HORSEMANSHIP Classes
The Introduction to Cal Natural Horsemanship and the Basics of Horsemanship & Riding workshops have been combined into a two part series are for those with little or no experience. It is also a self-paced program with wonderful safe and seasoned horses and ponies. The course introduces the foundation of horsemanship and basic riding concepts through arena lectures, simulations, some mounted instruction, and demonstartions of the Parelli Natural Horsemanship methods we use in our school. We start with safety, horse psychology, horse identification, basic anatomy, and tack terminology. You learn to groom, lead, and tack a horse while bonding with him or her. We practice safe mounting and dismounting, being balanced, and communicating with the aides of your seat, legs, hands, and voice. You should be able to start, stop, and turn, and maybe get to do some basic patterns and games like the circle around cones, the figure eight around barrels, the weave through poles, and maybe even to park and back your horse all depending on the class dynamics and your level of abilty.
The horse and all equipment rental fees are included in the class cost, as well as educational handouts. Upon completion of the program you are ready to join as a member the Developing Your Natural Horsemanship classes, camps or to take private lessons. The classes below and some continuing programs and private lessons are held at Bear Creek Stable & Open Space Preserve in Los Gatos. These classes, lessons, and some more advanced programs like "Advancing Natural Horsemanship levels 3-4", the Mounted Combat Unit, and Horses for Heroes Programs are also held at the Cal Sports Club Ranch on the boarder of Moragn Hill/Gilroy a quick 25 minutes from San Jose on hwy 101.
Fencing ~ Archery ~ Horsemanship ~ Nature
These camps are for those with little or no experience, as well as those that are intermediate-advanced fencers, archers, equestrians, naturalists, and outdoorsmen. We seperate the camps which are large (because they are so popular) into seperate mini camps for most activities. This seperation is based on age, level, and gender and once the campers are assesed they are placed the appropriate level instructor, coach, or junior assistant. It will vary a little by which activity how many are in a group. An archery camp for example may all be doing the same thing at the same time, but will have a lead instructor with assistants assigned to their own small groups to assist within the camp.
You are welcome to sign up for multiple sessions of camps as we cater to all developing levels in every camp. With archery leveling up is easily attended to with moving you farther from the target, and giving you smaller targets and objects to shoot at, with fencing you are paired with like experienced partners and given an additional step and goal in drills etc, and with horsemanship you are possibly given a more advanced horse that fits your level, but you definetly learn more advanced technique and perform more advanced maneuvers exercises. In all activities the student progress to more advanced instructors and/or assistants. So sign up for as many camps as you like!
Upon completion of the program you may become a member of the Cal Sports Club's novice-intermediate level classes! These camps below for archery and fencing and the ongoing programs are held at the Cal Sports Club at 891 East Hamilton Avenue Campbell. The Horses, Nature & Outdoor Adventure camps are held at the Cal Sports Club Ranch in Gilroy as our base, and we also do activities and Bear Creek Stable/Open Space Preserve, and at local parks, nature centers etc.
The equipment rental and material fees are all included in the camp cost. We do not offer early bird registration as we have already lowered our camp fees to minimum level possible to give everyone a discount so to speak, also we do not need to generate more money before the camps start by getting you to sign up earlier, also we do not believe in penalizing people who don't know yet if they can fit the date in their schedule or simply found out about our camps after others did. We have given our early bird discount to everyone! We no longer take deposits as it is a huge amount of work and confusion to collect the balances the first day of class, and some people just sometimes do not show, and many just forget to bring payment, and some have friends or nannys bring the campers, and the lower amount of admin helps us keep your camp cost low. Please read at the bottom of the camp info our financial and return policies.
If you have any camp questions please email the Director Daniel Tibbetts directly at firstname.lastname@example.com, or call 408-865-1950 but if you call PLEASE leave a message as he is probably on a horse, behind a sword, or pulling arrows out of a target - he will return your call no later than the following day and most likely within moments. You DO NOT need to call to see if there is room in a camp. If it registers you there is room.
You will get a confirmation you paid when you register. That is your confirmation for the camp, and a reminder is ussually sent the week before the camp with any additional info if needed. For archery and fencing dress athletically and bring a water bottle, and for horsemanship and outdoor activities wear long pants and shirt, have a hat, sun block, water bottle. For all day camps have a snack for break and a lunch. For the horse camps see below for more info.
Register now & we'll see you in Camp!
FINANCE & REFUND POLICY: Classes, workshops, clinics, and camps are paid for fully in advance. If you withdraw before 72 hours in advance you will be refunded less a $50.00 administration fee. Withdrawls within 72 hours recieve no refund as that spot is now a void student spot, however if a written/emailed verified medical excuse is presented we will refund up to the starting day of the camp minus the $50.00 admin fee. If you need to cancel your registration because of an arisen date conflict, but you can fit into another session then no additional fees will apply including the admin fee. If you come the first day and do not like it and wish to cancel you will be refunded minus the prorated amount for the first day and the $50.00 admin fee.
EMAIL: firstname.lastname@example.com
Location: 891 East Hamilton Avenue. We are located on Hamilton ave between The Hwy 17 on ramp and Bascom Avenue behind the Clasic Car Wash. Turn into the driveway between the animal hospital and the runners store and we are located in the back of this parking lot on the left. See you there!

Van crash injures Dartmouth studentsMarch 02,2013
VERNON Vermont State Police say eight Dartmouth College students escaped injury when the van they were in rolled over after hitting a patch of ice on Interstate 91 in the town of Vernon.
Police said rescue crews were called at about 7:15 a.m. Friday to an area about five miles north of the Massachusetts line.
Police said the van was carrying members of Dartmouths Ultimate Frisbee team, who were headed to a tournament in Virginia.
The van went off the left side of the road and hit an embankment. The van came to rest on its side.
All the occupants were wearing seatbelts.

Hey Max!
We're running Simple Login Log on a WordPress Multisite, network activated - and only started seeing this problem in the last 2 months or so...
We've been debugging a significant performance issue on our server for a while... and after a lot of digging, we isolated it to a full table retrieval query coming from Simple Login Log.
It seems this query below is hitting the database for every page-view of wp-login.php - not for attempted login, but litearlly just going to wp-login.php triggers it:
SELECT * FROM wp_simple_login_log
Screenshot: http://www.screencast.com/t/SUcQLkOK14
I'm not sure off hand what other wordpress pages generate might also trigger query... but I was able to verify it happens with wp-login.php
I would thing this query should only run when one clicks on the WP admin -> Users -> Login Log menu, right?
But for some reason it's being triggered in other areas as well and basically bringing down our MySQL and the server along with it.
As soon as I disabled the Simple Login Log plugin, our MySQL became almost dormant lol, the performance issues disappeared completely.
But before that, I could do "mysql> show processlist;" repeatedly over and over and always see a couple of these queries - in spite of how quickly MySQL processes and completes the queries.
But we'd really like to re-enable it! :-)
Could you please check this out and see what the fix may be...
This is a high traffic site and we don't prune the login log table, as we keep those records. This might not have been noticed on a low traffic site or a site where the records are purged regularly. :-)
