Arts Paul Allen and J.M.W. Turner, BFF?
I was just looking at a news item from this past weekend about Felix Gonzalez-Torres's selection to represent the US at the 2007 Venice Biennale (more on that in a forthcoming post) when I saw something I'd overlooked, from the NY Times:
A mysterious American collector bought a dreamy scene of Venice by J. M. W. Turner for $35.8 million, a record for the artist, at Christie's in New York yesterday [April 6].
"Giudecca, La Donna della Salute and San Giorgio" (around 1840) was being sold by St. Francis of Assisi Foundation, a nonprofit organization in White Plains that supports the missionary efforts of Capuchin priests and brothers worldwide. The painting was given to the foundation by a European collector who wishes to remain anonymous. It had been on view for many years at the Art Institute of Chicago.
Three bidders Robert Noortman, a dealer from Maastricht, the Netherlands; and two unidentified telephone bidders vied for the painting, which was bought by one of the telephone bidders described by Christie's officials only as an American who frequently bought Impressionist and Modern art.
Names being bandied about included the financier Leon Black and the Microsoft giant Paul Allen, who both already own Turners, as well as the hedge-fund manager Kenneth Griffin.
The Turner painting of Venice that we do know Allen owns is gorgeous; it's up at the Experience Music Project through September and may be the best work of art on display right now in Seattle. (EMP didn't make a reproduction of it available, and I can't find another Turner Venice picture online that seems comparably compelling, otherwise a scene of a hazy, dissolving world would appear right here.) The fact that it's in a half-baked show in a sub-par museum, well, that's the subject of my review in this week's issue.

woow awesome recipe. i honestly didnt think id like it, i turned out loving it thanks!!!
This recipe was a breeze and very economical. This was my first Duck Thanksgiving and with this recipe it was a success. I recommend it for 1st timers and those of us who are on budgets, with big taste! I would try draining the pan of fat & drippings maybe once or twice while cooking. Also I recommend the Duck Sauce Recipe-excellent. (I tried it with Rasberry Preserves). Happy Thanksgiving

R&D and the Incentives from Merger and Acquisition Activity
We provide a model and empirical tests showing how an active acquisition market affects firm incentives to innovate and conduct R&D. Our model shows that small firms optimally may decide to innovate more when they can sell out to larger firms. Large firms may find it disadvantageous to engage in an "R&D race" with small firms, as they can obtain access to innovation through acquisition. Our model and evidence also show that the R&D responsiveness of firms increases with demand, competition, and industry merger and acquisition activity. All of these effects are stronger for smaller firms than for larger firms. The Author 2012. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of The Society for Financial Studies. All rights reserved.

Hi Guys,
������ I need to let some of this out and I do not really know where else to do it.
������ So it will be 5 years on November 5th since I lost my 11 year old son Anthony to Brain Cancer. I basically lived in somewhat denial about his death for the first year and a half and then the grief really hit and I basically lost it for a bit, for awhile now life has been back on track and "normal". In some ways I hate that it is because it feels like since so much time has passed and life is "normal" it is almost like Ant's life and death never happened and it is heartwrenching. People still talk about him and there are pictures around but its as if the pain is not there anymore for other people, or even worse people that are newer in our life that never met Ant and were not around when he died just do not get it. I will always be the mother of a child with cancer and I will always be a mother who's child died in thier arms. How do you maintain the balance of being able to live and still keep your childs memory alive and avoid being labled as the mom that just holds onto the pain and prevents themselves from being able to move on. I am finding I am angry again like I was years ago and I still feel so guilty that I didn't prevent this from happening and paraniod that it will happen to one of my other kids.
������ I am expecting our last baby and ironically her due date is November 3rd just 4 days before Anthony's Angel Day. I have already talked to my Drs and everyone has agreed this will be an October baby. I think it would just be too much to have the baby have her birthday that close to the worst day of my life. I don't know if all of this is what is stirring up all of this hurt and pain again.
������ Sorry I know that was all a rammble. I just needed to let it all out. Thank you for listening.

Historical Traveler Reviews San Cassiano Residenza d'Epoca Ca' Favretto Venice
Your own personal little palace
I have been going to Venice for over 10 years ,and I always stay at the San Cassiano Ca' Favretto. from the very first time I stayed there, in 1993, I fell in love with the place, the staff, the ambiance, so much so, that I shortened my stay in other cities in Italy so that I had time to return to this wonderful hotel at the end of the same trip. This restored former private residence is luxurious but on a scale that makes one feel very much at home, and every member of the staff is warm and welcoming and extremely helpful. The rooms are gorgeous,with beautiful draperies and antique style furnishings, but the recently renovated bathrooms are completely modern. The things I most look forward to are the wonderful breakfasts on the second floor terrace overlooking the Grand Canal , and sitting on the deck in the late afternoon relaxing with a cappuccino, watching the gondolas float by. The San Cassiano is central enough to walk everywhere, but private enough to avoid the crush of people . I had the opportunity last year to stay at a new hotel in the so-called "super deluxe "category at practically no cost to me, and truthfully, I did not enjoy it the way I enjoy staying at the San Cassiano and I would not consider staying anywhere else in Venice. I cannot believe that anyone could have a negative thing to say about this wonderful place:the atmosphere, the beauty of the place, from the main lobby to the individual rooms and breakfast room, to the warmth and kindness of the staff, there is no place that can compare- Every time I go there, I feel like I am returning home again and in 11 years, I have never had a negative experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone .
A Very Pleasant Experience
We were a group of four couples and all of us agree that this little romantic hotel on the Grand Canal was just perfect. Sure, our room was a little small and there was scaffolding outside our window (off-season, to be expected), but we were very happy during our three night stay. The towels are on a heated rack and the bathrooms clean. The breakfast room and food was wonderful overlooking the Grand Canal. The staff was extremely helpful and we enjoyed our late evening cocktails in the quaint bar off the lobby each night with the attendant who might also double as the hotel reception clerk at night. I plan to recommend this hotel to anyone planning a visit to Venice. While the walk to St. Marks Square may be a bit long, it is quite nice, and let's face it, who is in a rush when in Venice anyway?
So much more than the typical 3 star
This hotel was outstanding. For Venice (and all of Europe for that matter), this room was huge. The furnishings and d�cor were superb; plenty of Venetian glass, but not overkill. The bathroom was thoroughly modern and spacious. The view from our room was a side canal, but we could see the Grand Canal by stretching out the window. The bright and cheerful breakfast room overlooked the Grand Canal. The offering at breakfast was a good mix of an American style with bacon, eggs and ham, plus the typical hard breads and cheeses found in Europe. The staff was helpful and friendly. My only compliant with the hotel is finding it. Winding through the alleys from S. Stae in the dark was a challenge, but we were rewarded for our diligence upon entering the San Cassiano. Our next visit to Venice will certainly include this hotel.
Stayed at this place 20/08/2004 - 23/08/2004
If your going to Venice don't look any further than this place. Yes, its only a 3 star BUT the rooms, service, breakfast , everything is top class. We stayed in room 37 on the ground floor literally 2 foot away from the water! Our room was air conditioned and had everything you would need. Breakfast is from 7.30 till 10 and consists of cereals, fresh fruits and superb cold meat. You can eat this on a balcony overlooking the grand canal.
A nice touch to this place is the wooden pontoon which sits over the water. I didn't see another hotel which had this. It allows you to come back to the hotel at night and have a romantic drink just sitting there taking in the view.
It only takes 5 minutes (or less) to get to the main bridge!!
Cannot rate this place highly enough!
We stayed in a beautiful suite overlooking the canal. What a fantastic start to our holiday in Italy, the bells were tolling in the morning, sounds of boats passing by - beautiful room with very pretty furnishings. Comfortable bed, great breakfast room also overlooking the grand canal. Couldnt say a bad word about San Cassiano. It was great being slightly away from the crowds, but still only short walk to the rialto and into the piazza. would def. recommend this hotel.
Beautiful, charming hotel right on the Grand Canal
What a find! My boyfriend and I were so happy with our stay at San Cassiano Ca Favretto. Our room was very comfortable and was on the first floor of the hotel, overlooking the Canal. It was only a couple of stops by water bus ride from the train station and a short, but Venice-maze-like walk to the hotel from the bus stop (The pop out maps by Compass Maps were amazing tools for our trip to Europe - especially the Venice edition). We spent our first moments in Venice relaxing in the sun and enjoying the view of the canal on Cassiano's back porch while we waited for a water taxi to take us to Murano, compliments of the hotel. I would DEFINITELY stay at this hotel again!
Wish it could stay my secret
Just back from great holiday here; don't really want to write review, might not be able to get in next time. V.comfortable room, clean and in excellent condition. Could see Grand Canal by leaning out of window and peering round shutters. Breakfast fine in terms of fuel, though a bit uninventive. Friendly, cheerful staff. Wonderful view from breakfast room balcony, and from landing stage. Good heating, and modern air conditioning unit, so presumably fine in Summer. Once you're used to labyrinthine approach from St.Stae, it's really easy to find. Certainly best hotel we've ever used in Venice. Shall take some convincing to go anywhere else in future.
Cozy hotel, within 10-15 minutes of it all.
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a couple of nights in December 2002 after reading the reviews and finding a great deal on the Internet ($65! breakfast not included). The location was convenient (but within the Venetian labyrinth was not easy to find at first), quiet and away from the tourists. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable; modern bathroom with a shower curtain (!) allowing one to stand while showering. The staff was helpful and friendly. The deck, right on the Grand Canal, in the back of hotel was absolutely charming I spent some time painting small landscapes there despite the chilly weather would be excellent for breakfast in the warmer months. The construction (mentioned in another review) continues resulting in blocked views for some rooms, but then again How long can the construction go on? Hmm, well you're in Italy so who knows but then again youre in Venice, so How much time are you really going to spend in your room anyway?

I hope you guys had a relaxing weekend! I'm back, and ready to hit the ground running this Monday, bringing some fun inspiration to you this week. In the meantime, I wanted to start out with a super simple post… lockers. They've been all the rage for a while, but I think they definitely bring an interesting angle to lots of spaces, and in a versatile way.
Via via These lockers combine two trends at once… I spied these when perusing the Nashville Flea market, a year ago. Via I've always hesitated, and wondered what the correct treatment would be for some old, dented rusty ones if I was to find them…I wanted some, but wanted to do it right. If they were the wrong color…I'm not sure straight spray paint would be the right treatment…and sometimes rust icks me out. Even though sometimes a little rust can be charming…I like the idea of sprucing them up, or changing their color. I also love the idea of vintage wooden ones.

Could you give me more details about the issue? Does this error happen when you try to activate the plugin, or when using one of the Jetpack modules?
Could you also post your site URL here, so I can have a look?
If you want it to remain private, you can also contact us via this contact form:
It happened when trying to authorize the plugin with my WordPress.com account. I tried several times and it would not work. I finally logged out of my WordPress.com account and tried authorizing again. This time it worked.
But after looking around a bit I uninstalled it completely anyway. Too much garbage I don't need/want installed automatically. Make it slim and light with everything off by default, then I'll start using a few of it's "modules." Would also be really nice if it didn't require WordPress.com auth for ones like the custom CSS and such that don't need to connect to WP.com for any reason.

Wrenwood Sessions was formed in 2010 when five musicians playing in church discovered their mutual love for Irish and Scottish folk music - the traditional "Celtic" music of the Isles. Today the group consists of six members: David Barringer (keys, accordion, vocals), Jeff Cram (whistles, bohdran), Anne Grogan (vocals, fiddle), Valerie Lewis (harp), Steve Lewis (guitars, octave mandolin) and Jeremy Swanson (fiddle, mandola).

We formed in early 2008 with our original lineup: John Michael, Chris Burke, Tim Burke, Patrick Golden, and Dave Holodiloff. In the summer of 2008, Steve Lenard and Peter Sheehan replaced the Brothers Burke, and Dave Holodiloff played his last show with us on St. Patrick's Day 2009. In 2012 we played with Lee Patterson (bass) and Matt Dentrone (drums) and in 2013 we played with a lineup that included David Ellison (drums) and Avey Gonzalez (bass). We have John Michael on vocals Ireland-born; and Patrick Golden (guitars, originally from Bakersfield, CA) David Burners (bass) Keith Graves and Tim Burke (drums), --we are simply "Bog Iron"--as we ALL should be. BEHOLD THE BOG--AND DESPAIR!

In 2009, the first Bakersfield Celtic Music Festival was held. It was so much fun we decided to commit to producing it annually. Our purpose is to increase the awareness of the great tradition of Scottish and Irish music (that gave birth to Bluegrass, Country and now Celtic Rock), in Bakersfield, Kern County and all of Central California. It is also the most fun music around.
Our purpose is to increase the awareness of the great tradition of Scottish and Irish music (that gave birth to Bluegrass, Country and now Celtic Rock), in Bakersfield, Kern County and all of Central California.
We also wanted to bring a new entertainment event to Bakersfield that can be enjoyed as a family and appeals to all ages. One that showcased the fantastic local talent that already is known throughout the state. Additionally, we wanted to bring great groups from outside the area to draw people from all over to make this an event that will grow.
The BCMF is about the preservation and popularization of Celtic Music, however, peruse and purchase the merchandise and food provided by our vendor friends while you are there.
We also wanted to raise awareness and support for local groups and agencies that need financial help. The BCMF supports the Jamison Children's Center for Abused Children, an underfunded agency that is vitally important to far too many children in Kern County, and we hope you will help us in that endeavor. In the past, the Music Fest allowed us to donate $1100 to the Jamison Center. We will continue our effort to support the Center.
We are also proud sponsors of the Highland High School Pipe Band. At each of our events, pipers from the band perform and participate. The Kern County Scottish Society are proud to announce that we have provided chanters for band members and financial support to this very worthy group of up and coming pipers.
Check out the great bands that have performed at the Celtic Festival over the past 4 years:
Local Groups: Banshee in the Kitchen, Whiskey Galore, 1916, World's Tallest Leprechaun, Wrenwood Sessions, and O'Sheebeen
Out of Area Groups: Wicked Tinkers, Slugger O'Toole, Tempest, California Celts, Molly's Revenge. Skelpin, Vagrant Nation, Brilliant Gypsies, Young Dubliners, Sunday Drivers, Gillie Wheesels , Golden Bough, and Brother,

The Kern County Scottish Society would like to sincerely thank all the volunteers that continue to make this event possible each year.

• "River Beds: Sleeping in the World's Rivers" by Gail Langer Karwoski (Sylvan Dell Publishing, 32 pp., $16.95)
Would you like to know how river animals all over the world sleep? Did you know that river otters wrap themselves in plants so they don't float downstream?
"River Beds" will show you how these creatures live; and in the back of the book, there is a colorful map that shows you where the animals live!
There is also a matching activity at the end for readers to test what they've learned. I really love animals, and there were many things in the book that I didn't know about. The pictures by Connie McLennan are gorgeous; I took a lot of time studying them, and noticed how detailed they really are.
I think it would be fun for little kids to find the animals in the pictures, and for the older kids to learn more about these animals and where they live. The author, Gail Karwoski, lives and teaches in Athens. I recently met her and had my book signed. "River Beds" is a sequel to "Water Beds: Sleeping in the Ocean." I recommend this book for ages 3-9.

Maybe you are old hat to this and if so just ignore what I say:
The deal with custom holsters, custom grips, custom anything is this - order it and forget it. A watched pot never boils. Delivery time will be four times longer than what you are told and fretting over it won't make it go any faster. A craftsman can't make holsters AND spend all day on the phone or answering emails so every time you contact him you are bringing production to a complete standstill for everybody on the roster. Multiply that by 1000 and it's amazing they do any work at all.
Just my opinion.

I've been posting on my blog, http://lildivahandbags.com/blog/, for a few months now. I recently discovered that my meta tags for each post are not working. I do have general meta tags in my header section, though.
When I write a new post using the WP Dashboard, I have been entering all my keywords in the "tags" section directly below the post area. But when I go into my browser and view the page source code, nada. None of these keywords are showing up under each individual post.
What gives? When I integrated my template into my website, I did not change the 'tags' or 'category' tags of the php at all, so that's not the problem.
Will this problem be resolved if I install the SEO plugin? I need to know ASAP so the crawlers will pick up my blog.
Thanks much for your help!

Applause Sound Detection with Low Latency
This paper presents a comprehensive investigation on the detection of applause sounds in audio signals. It focuses on the processing of single microphone recordings in real-time with low latency. A particular concern is the intensity of the applause within the sound mixture and the influence of the interfering sounds on the recognition performance which is investigated experimentally. Well-known feature sets, feature processing and classification methods are compared. Additional low-pass filtering of the feature time series leads to the concept of sigma features and yields further improvements of the detection result.

This article summarizes and quantifies the current evidence relating dietary intake of animal products and endometrial cancer. Literature searches were conducted to identify peer-reviewed manuscripts published up to December 2006. Twenty-two manuscripts from three cohort studies and 16 case–control studies were identified. One of these cohort studies evaluated only fried meat and another only milk consumption; they were not included in our meta-analyses. The third cohort study identified did not present exposure levels and could not be included in dose–response meta-analysis. This cohort study did not show an association with meat or red meat consumption. Random-effects dose–response summary estimates for case–control studies evaluating these foods were 1.26 (95% CI: 1.03–1.54) per 100 g/day of total meat, 1.51 (95% CI: 1.19–1.93) per 100 g/day of red meat, 1.03 (95% CI: 0.32–3.28) per 100 g/day of poultry, 1.04 (95% CI: 0.55–1.98) per 100 g/day of fish, and 0.97 (95% CI: 0.93–1.01) per serving of dairy. Our meta-analysis, based on case–control data, suggests that meat consumption, particularly red meat, increases endometrial cancer risk. The current literature does not support an association with dairy products, while the evidence is inconsistent for poultry, fish, and eggs. More studies, particularly prospective studies, are needed.

House GOP Chaffetz Explains Why He's A 'No' Vote On Boehner Plan
While Speaker John Boehner demanded, indelicately, that his House Republican troops get in line behind his debt-ceiling plan, some are still refusing to.
Just how many in his conference won't vote Thursday on the House floor for his proposal to cut $1 trillion from federal deficits over ten years, explains why it's still unclear whether his plan will pass.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a second-term Utah Republican and author of the "Cut, Cap and Balance," legislation is one Republican who says he's certain how he's going to vote and that's no, he told Steve Inskeep, co-host of Morning Edition in an interview aired Thursday.
"I am a no vote. I really truly worry that the debt is one of the single greatest threats to the United States of America. That we're talking about a problem that is multitrillion (dollars) in its depth and I think we ought to be cutting more. I just don't think it goes far enough."
Even after Boehner went back to revise his plan to frontload more cuts, raising the first-year amount to $22 billion from $5 billion, Chaffetz isn't biting.
"What I really worry about is the first year number which looks like it will come in at around $22 billion. When you're upside down roughly $1.4 trillion and you're going to cut $22 billion, I just worry that's not enough."
By way of his explaining why he won't be voting with Boehner Thursday, Chaffetz underscored the speaker's larger problem in his conference.
While a lot of those poised to vote against his plan have nothing against him personally, they're not driven by the practical power politics of Washington, the need to show solidarity with him in order to improve his bargaining position with Senate Democrats and President Obama.
Instead, they see themselves as placing their loyalties elsewhere.
I personally have to do what I believe is right for the country. I didn't go here to just go along to get along. Those types of arguments about 'Get behind me" are not as persuasive as, so when I saw the speaker, he kind of looked at me like 'Hey, where are you at?' and I said 'Look, I support you personally but I just don't support this bill.'
