Mardi Gras
Shrove Tuesday (also known in Commonwealth countries as Pancake Tuesday or Pancake day) is the day in February or March immediately preceding Ash Wednesday (the first day of Lent), which is celebrated in some countries by consuming pancakes. In others, especially those where it is called Mardi Gras or some translation thereof, this is a carnival day, and also the last day of "fat eating" or "gorging" before the fasting period of Lent.
This moveable feast is determined by Easter. The expression "Shrove Tuesday" comes from the word shrive, meaning "absolve".[1] Shrove Tuesday is observed by many Christians, including Anglicans, Lutherans, Methodists and Roman Catholics,[2] who "make a special point of self-examination, of considering what wrongs they need to repent, and what amendments of life or areas of spiritual growth they especially need to ask God's help in dealing with."[3]
Being the last day of the liturgical season historically known as Shrovetide, before the penitential season of Lent, related popular practices, such as indulging in food that one sacrifices for the upcoming forty days, are associated with Shrove Tuesday celebrations, before commencing the fasting and religious obligations associated with Lent. The term Mardi Gras is French for "Fat Tuesday", referring to the practice of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season, which begins on Ash Wednesday.
It is probably impossible to know when the tradition of marking the start of Lent began. Ælfric of Eynsham's "Ecclesiastical Institutes" of about A.D. 1000 includes: "In the week immediately before Lent everyone shall go to his confessor and confess his deeds and the confessor shall so shrive him as he then may hear by his deeds what he is to do [in the way of penance]".[4] Pancakes are commonly eaten on this day as they, in Christianity, symbolize "four pillars of the Christian faith--eggs for creation, flour as the mainstay of the human diet, salt for wholesomeness and milk for purity."[5] Since foods such as butter, eggs and fat are discouraged from being eaten during the Lenten season, Christians use these ingredients during Shrovetide to make pancakes or other rich foods, such as fasnachts and pączkis.[6] The specific custom of Christians eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday dates to the 16th century Anno Domini.[6][5] Along with its emphasis on feasting, another theme of Shrove Tuesday involves Christians repenting of their sins in preparation to begin the season of Lent in the Christian kalendar.[7] In many Christian parish churches, both Protestant and Roman Catholic, a popular Shrove Tuesday tradition is the ringing of the church bells (on this day, the toll is known as the Shriving Bell) "to call the faithful to confession before the solemn season of Lent" and for housewives to "begin frying their pancakes".[8][9]
The word shrove is a form of the English word shrive, which means to obtain absolution for one's sins by way of Confession and doing penance. Thus Shrove Tuesday gets its name from the custom for Christians to be "shriven" before the start of Lent.[10] Shrove Tuesday is the last day of "shrovetide", somewhat analogous to the Carnival tradition that developed separately in countries of Latin Europe.
- In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and Canada, Shrove Tuesday is alternatively known as "Pancake Day" or "Pancake Tuesday" due to the tradition of eating pancakes on the day.
- Catholic and Protestant countries (outside those mentioned above) traditionally call the day before Ash Wednesday "Fat Tuesday" or "Mardi Gras". The name predated the Reformation and referred to the common Christian tradition of eating special rich foods before the fasting season of Lent.
- For German American populations, such as Pennsylvania Dutch Country, it is known as Fastnacht Day (also spelled Fasnacht, Fausnacht, Fauschnaut, or Fosnacht).
- In Germany, it is known as Fastnachtsdienstag (also spelled Faschingsdienstag, or Karnevalsdienstag) or Veilchendienstag (violet [the flower] Tuesday). It is often celebrated with street processions (called Karnevalsumzüge) or fancy dress. The processions are typically smaller than the ones on Rosenmontag. In Kindergartens and most Elementary Schools it is celebrated with fancy dress. When celebrated in schools, it is normally handled as a kind of half-holiday: classes are off and the school day begins some hours later.
- In the Netherlands, it is known as "vastenavond", or in Limburgish dialect "vastelaovond", though the word "vastelaovond" usually refers to the entire period of carnival in the Netherlands.
- In Portuguese-, Spanish- and Italian-speaking countries, among others, it is known as Carnival (to use the English spelling). This derives from Medieval Latin carnelevamen ("the putting away of flesh")[11] and thus to another aspect of the Lenten fast. It is often celebrated with street processions or fancy dress. The most famous of these events is the Brazilian Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, while the Venetians celebrate carnival with a masquerade. The use of the term "carnival" in other contexts derives from here. In Spain, the Carnival Tuesday is named "día de la tortilla" ("omelette day"): an omelette made with some sausage or pork fat is eaten.[citation needed]
- On the Portuguese island of Madeira, they eat malasadas on Terça-feira Gorda (Fat Tuesday in English) which is also the last day of the Carnival of Madeira. The reason for making malasadas was to use up all the lard and sugar in the house, in preparation for Lent (much in the same way the tradition of Pancake Day in the UK originated on Shrove Tuesday). malasadas are sold alongside the Carnival of Madeira. This tradition was taken to Hawaii, where Shrove Tuesday is known as Malasada Day, which dates back to the days of the sugar plantations of the 1800s, the resident Catholic Portuguese (mostly from Madeira and the Azores) workers used up butter and sugar prior to Lent by making large batches of malasadas.
- In Denmark and Norway, the day is known as Fastelavn and is marked by eating fastelavnsboller, also known as Semla. Fastelavn is the name for Carnival in Denmark which is either the Sunday or Monday before Ash Wednesday. Fastelavn developed from the Roman Catholic tradition of celebrating in the days before Lent, but after Denmark became a Protestant nation, the holiday became less specifically religious. This holiday occurs seven weeks before Easter Sunday, with children dressing up in costumes and gathering treats for the Fastelavn feast. The holiday is generally considered to be a time for children's fun and family games. (see Carnival in Denmark)
- In Iceland, the day is known as Sprengidagur (Bursting Day) and is marked by eating salted meat and peas.
- In Lithuania, the day is called Užgavėnės. People eat pancakes (blynai) and Lithuanian-style doughnuts called spurgos.
- In Sweden, the day is called Fettisdagen (Fat Tuesday), and is generally celebrated by eating a type of pastry called semla or fastlagsbulle.
- In Finland, the day is called laskiainen and is generally celebrated by eating green pea soup and a pastry called laskiaispulla (sweet bread filled with whipped cream and jam or almond paste, same as the Swedish semla). The celebration often includes sledging.
- In Estonia, the day is called Vastlapäev and is generally celebrated by eating pea soup and whipped-cream or whipped-cream and jam filled sweet-buns called vastlakukkel, similar to the Swedish semla. Children also typically go sledding on this day.
- In Poland, a related celebration falls on the Thursday before Ash Wednesday and is called tłusty czwartek (Fat Thursday).
- In Slovenia, Kurentovanje is also the biggest and best known carnival in Slovenia. There are several more local carnivals: for example in west Slovenia, a very well known carnival takes place in Cerkno. This carnival is usually referred to as Laufarija.
- In some parts of Switzerland (e.g. Lucerne), the day is called Güdisdienstag, preceded by Güdismontag. According to the Duden dictionary, the term derives from "Güdel", which means a fat stomach full of food Güdeldienstag.[12]
- In some areas of the United States, with large Polish communities, such as Chicago, Buffalo and Michigan, Tłusty Czwartek is celebrated with pączki or faworki eating contests, music and other Polish food. It may be held on Shrove Tuesday or in the days immediately preceding it.[13]
- In Hungary, and the Hungarian-speaking territories, it is called Húshagyókedd (literally the Tuesday leaving the meat) and in certain more traditional regions it is celebrated by dressing up in home-made costumes, especially kids, and visiting the neighbours.
- India, in Vasai (Bassein), it is known as Hithrooz and is celebrated with drinks and home cooked meat recipes.
Pancakes are associated with the day preceding Lent because they were a way to use up rich foods such as eggs, milk, and sugar, before the fasting season of the 40 days of Lent. In addition, pancakes, in Christianity, symbolize "four pillars of the Christian faith--eggs for creation, flour as the mainstay of the human diet, salt for wholesomeness and milk for purity."[5] The liturgical fasting emphasized eating plainer food and refraining from food that would give pleasure: in many cultures, this means no meat, dairy products, or eggs.
In Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and Ireland the day is also known as "Pancake Day" as it is a common custom to eat pancakes as a meal.[14][15][16]
In Newfoundland and Cape Breton Island small tokens are frequently cooked in the pancakes. Children take delight in discovering the objects, which are intended to be divinatory. For example, the person who receives a coin will be wealthy; a nail indicates that they will become or marry a carpenter.[17][18]
In England, as part of community celebration, many towns held traditional Shrove Tuesday "mob football" games, some dating as far back as the 12th century. The practice mostly died out in the 19th century after the passing of the Highway Act 1835 which banned playing football on public highways. A number of towns have maintained the tradition, including Alnwick in Northumberland, Ashbourne in Derbyshire (called the Royal Shrovetide Football), Atherstone in Warwickshire (called simply the Atherstone Ball Game), St Columb Major in Cornwall (called Hurling the Silver Ball), and Sedgefield in County Durham.
Shrove Tuesday was once known as a "half-holiday" in Britain. It started at 11:00am with the ringing of a church bell.[19] On Pancake Day, "pancake races" are held in villages and towns across the United Kingdom. The tradition is said to have originated in 1445 when a housewife from Olney, Buckinghamshire, was so busy making pancakes that she forgot the time until she heard the church bells ringing for the service. She raced out of the house to church while still carrying her frying pan and pancake, tossing it to prevent it from burning.[20][21] The pancake race remains a relatively common festive tradition in the UK, especially England, even today. Participants with frying pans race through the streets tossing pancakes into the air and catching them in the pan while running.
The most famous pancake race,[22] at Olney in Buckinghamshire, has been held since 1445. The contestants, traditionally women, carry a frying pan and race over a 415-yard course to the finishing line. The rules are strict: contestants have to toss their pancake at both the start and the finish, as well as wear an apron and a scarf. Traditionally, when men want to participate, they must dress up as a housewife (usually an apron and a bandanna). The race is followed by a church service.[20]
Since 1950 the people of Liberal, Kansas, and Olney have held the "International Pancake Day" race between the two towns. The two towns' competitors race along an agreed-upon measured course. The times of the two towns' competitors are compared to determine a winner overall. After the 2009 race, Liberal was leading with 34 wins to Olney's 25.[23] A similar race is held in North Somercotes in Lincolnshire, England.
Scarborough celebrates by closing the foreshore to all traffic, closing schools early, and inviting all to skip. Traditionally, long ropes were used from the nearby harbour. The town crier rings the pancake bell, situated on the corner of Westborough (main street) and Huntress Row.
The children of the hamlet of Whitechapel, Lancashire keep alive a local tradition by visiting local households and asking "please a pancake", to be rewarded with oranges or sweets. It is thought the tradition arose when farm workers visited the wealthier farm and manor owners to ask for pancakes or pancake fillings.[24]
In Scandinavia, in particular in Finland and Sweden, the day is associated with the almond paste-filled semla pastry.
Pancakes are traditional in Christian festivals in Belarus, Ukraine and Russia also at this time of year (Maslenitsa).
In London, the Rehab Parliamentary Pancake Race takes place every Shrove Tuesday, with teams from the British lower house (the House of Commons), the upper house (the House of Lords), and the Fourth Estate, contending for the title of Parliamentary Pancake Race Champions. The fun relay race is to raise awareness of Rehab, which provides a range of health and social care, training, education, and employment services in the UK for disabled people and others who are marginalised. In 2009 the Upper House won. The race was then won by the Lower House in 2010 with the Upper House reclaiming their winning title in 2011. In 2012, the Lower House were crowned the pancake flipping champions and they retained their title for the second year running in 2013. The House of Lords won it back in 2014. However, at long last in 2015 the Media team finally won the title.

The association between pancakes and Shrove Tuesday appears to have its origins in the fact that the pancakes used up food such as butter, eggs and fat that were prohibited during Lent, which begins the following day on Ash Wednesday. ... Pancakes have been eaten on Shrove Tuesday since at least the sixteenth century. In some parishes it was the custom for the church bell to ring at noon as the signal for people to begin frying their pancakes.

Then there is Shrove Tuesday, which is the day observed before Ash Wednesday or Lent. Shrove Tuesday derives from the days where the earliest practicing Christians would repent of their sins and be "shriven" or pardoned.

In the 'black area' of the factory, enormous old dirty machines carry out a series of hot and noisy operations. Twenty-foot lengths of thin steel, already processed to the correct profile by the rolling mills at Darlington, are chopped into sections. A foot-operated press punches holes and slots for glazing bars and fittings and the frame sections are welded together in a shower of sparks. 'Most of the process is a simple one of heat and fusion,' says works manager Pat Hutchinson. In the mid-1930s, 180 welds an hour was champion; now it is 900. The smoking joints are sheared flat. 'This was probably done years ago by hand using a disc grinder.'
Hinges and handles, riveted into position in prewar days, are today welded. Glazing bars, though, are still levered in manually and hammered flush to the frame with a traditional windowmaker's hammer - its head long and narrow. Curved windows are made individually; the thin steel is passed through a set of rollers to form the distinctive shape. Originally, frames were simply painted with red oxide to inhibit rust. Today they are galvanised and specially coated.
There is one process, however, that cannot be supplanted by machine; it relies on the eye and skill of a pair of operators working together. Wielding 7lb copper hammers, they whack and tap - 'final' - each window to ensure that it is perfectly aligned and true. 'A good pair of final hands can do 480 windows a day,' says Pat Hutchinson. 'We've looked at mechanised methods, but without success.'
The period after the First World War brought an urgent need for cheap, mass-produced building materials. Crittall, by then a leading manufacturer, invented the Standard Metal Window specifically for the housing market, in many permutations of shape, size and style. To overcome resistance from architects, the company commissioned a dozen leading lights to design housing schemes using several of its styles, pressing home the message that the windows maximised light and air. Soon the Standard Metal Window featured in the new postwar housing estates and, by the end of the 1930s, in practically every home in burgeoning suburbia.
But Crittall's high profile today is not just to do with the quantity of windows supplied - although in its heyday the company had plants worldwide. More important was the fact that Crittall steel windows were embraced by leading 1930s architects. Those of the Modern Movement in particular, demanding as they did a new architecture based on industrialised materials, used them in celebrated buildings such as BBC Broadcasting House, the Art Deco former Daily Express building in Fleet Street, and Lubetkin's Finsbury Health Centre - just as Frank Lloyd Wright did in Falling Water, the house he built at Bear Run, Pennsylvania.
Crittall is at Springwood Drive, Braintree, Essex CM7 7YN
(tel 0376 324106).

first time it has bloomed. It's name is BURNISHED BRASS (B. Roe "71) 40 "
M-L, Standards- glowing brass brown, Falls- same/yellow-orange signal.
Hope this helps.
Annette Milch Zone 5/6 Lexington, KY email@example.com
PS. The SDB you sent me named PEACHY FACE looks more like Raspberry Blush in
the Schreiner '99 catalog. Could this be?
PSS. I had potted up Rhages (SDB) and it just finished blooming.

That's not true ...you have to port applications to the new platform. But Apple has prepared developers very well on how to do the migration.

The recent thread > about a complete rewrite of Cocoon *really* scares me > and a lot of people I've talked to as it will break > compatibility for sure. Fear has always been the main blocker for new technologies. I thought it was already clear that what (I think) most people want is not necessarily to really rewrite from scratch but the freedom to reevaluate and change every- thing if they think it's a good change ...without the "no, we cannot do that to our existing customers" There is no doubt we need migration strategies ...but there is also no doubt we are currently locked into some not even so clear and old contracts. THIS is what people (or at least I) want to change. <snip/> > I also consider it as dangerous as it might > lead to fractions within the community and we start > again to split our limited time that we can dedicate > to the devleopment of Cocoon into two projects for > years (again). I am sure it will also create fraction if we don't move on with some innovations that are just too much for the current codebase. cheers -- Torsten

text: Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: $226,521.63 For A Basket-Case 1963 Pontiac Tempest?Murilee Martin11/17/08 8:00amFiled to: Nice Price Or Crack PipeDrag Racing1963tempest1960sPontiac1963 Pontiac TempestSuper Duty68EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink By now, almost all of you have heard about the Barn Find Of The Year, the '63 Pontiac Tempest that turned out to be the long-lost Stan Antlocer Factory Experimental drag racer, one of six lightweight '63 coupes stuffed full of 421 goodness by Pontiac back in the day (you can read more about these machines at Hemmings). The seller apparently had no idea what he had until crazy offers to end the auction early started pouring in, thus assuring those with hoarding disorders that you should always save everything… forever! Anyway, heartwarming story, piece of drag racing history, et freakin' cetera, but what we want to know is: how about that price? Did the bidders get carried away in a frenzy of one-upmanship, or is this completely trashed ex-race-car- which we freely admit registers an off-the-scale reading on the Jalopnik Cool-O-Meter™- really worth that much? [eBay Motors], and thanks to many, many of you for the tips on this one. Is 226 grand a pretty good price for the Stan Antlocer Tempest? ( surveys)Reply68 repliesLeave a reply

Hello Developers,
Please I am having problems keeping a socket connection in my application alive for a long period. It seems to disconnect after a short while (every 2 minutes) especially if idle.
It happens that I am writing an application with a Chat feature and this requires I keep a socket connection Alive for the life-tme of my application. I have already tried tricks like pinging server every minute, but then this constitute a drain of (Blackberry) resources. Blackberry Push isnt an option (as i have other clients other than BB devices).
Please does anyone know how i can solve this or still suggest another alternative way of going about this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
The only way is to have a keep alive request sent to your server every minute or so ... BlackBerry kills the socket after about 2 minutes of inactivity (idle).
I agree with the previos responder. The problem that you have is the reason RIM invented push. I am not aware of a way round this. If you can't use push, then you are going to have to keep alive and so your app will suffer the battery drain and possibly the additional charges associated with data traffic.
Some people have used email instead of Push as a wau of notifying the application that there is something for it - this requires a email listener in the application to process and remove these notification emails.
If you do use a keep alive message, then I think this quesiton becomes moot:
"how do i even differentiate between blackberry......"
I have accepted as a solution. Though clumsy and NOT what we developers would have wanted by a large margin. I am trying to do some asynchronous communication between server/client and the socket alive is used by xmpp.
My question to you though is please do you have any explanation as to why one doesnt have to bother about this in Java SE? Could it be simply because BB Dev is largely different?

Banking-on-the-Average Rules
In this paper, we argue for a regulatory framework under which a bank's required level of equity capital depends on the equity capital of its peers. Such bankingon- the-average rules are transparent and could also be combined with the current regulatory framework. In addition, we argue that banking-on-the-average rules ensure the build-up of bank equity capitals in booms and thus avoid excessive leverage. Prudent banks can impose prudency on other banks. In a simple model of a banking system, we show that a banking-on-the-average framework can deliver the socially optimal solution because it induces banks to abstain from gambling. Moreover, it alleviates socially harmful consequences of conventional equity-capital rules, which may induce banks to excessively cut back on lending or liquidate desirable long-term investment projects in downturns.

by Nancy Davidge on May 16, 2011
The performers at Friday night's cabaret-style fundraiser sang their hearts out.
I'm gonna sing 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna sing 'till Jesus comes
These musicians and singers gifted the audience with an evening of song, a biannual event to benefit the Church's longstanding partnership with a congregation in South Africa.
Bill and I were part of a group of ten who met for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres before walking over to the church. The evening had a festive feel to it: the air was warm, the flowering trees laden with blossoms, gardens were fresh with color, and a three quarters moon glowed in the blue evening sky.
The church hall had been transformed into a cabaret, with tables of four decorated with tissue paper flowers and colorful tablecloths. More paper flowers graced the windowsills and the six foot tables serving as 'will call,' raffle, and bar.
Lively chatter filled the room as friends greeted each other, and introductions were made.
At 7:30 the master of ceremonies appeared and the program began. Then stopped. The sound system wasn't working. In the spirit of the 'show must go on,' the MC began telling jokes. Soon the microphones were working, and the Cabaret Singers took the stage.
Carrying the lion's share of the program was a core group of seventeen '50-60 something' men and women; people who love to perform and who have the time to devote the many hours it takes to put on a show.
Interspersed throughout the program were several younger performers: The elementary school-aged boy who sang "Danny Boy." The pre-teen brother and sister who gave a hauntingly beautiful performance of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah." The young married couple's "Young at Heart" duet as well as two other young adult soloists and a teenage drummer.
The audience was attentive and supportive. The performers' joy in performing was evident as their voices and movements grew more confident and relaxed as the evening went on.
During intermission, the room came alive as performers and audience mingled. The hospitality committee served home made brownies with whipped cream and fresh strawberries. People refilled their glasses before settling in for the second half.
The evening evoked a strong sense of another time: A time when people gathered in community to entertain and engage each other. And to laugh.
Best of all? The evening was fun.
What does your congregation do for fun?
I'm Gonna Sing 'Till the Spirit Moves in My Heart by Moses Hogan
I'm gonna sing 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna sing 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna sing 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna sing 'till Jesus comes
It was grace that brought me
It was grace that taught me
It was grace that kept me
And it's grace that will lead me home
I'm gonna pray 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna pray 'till Jesus comes
Can't you feel the spirit moving?
I'm gonna shout 'till the Spirit moves in my heart
I'm gonna shout 'till Jesus comes
I'm gonna sing till my Jesus comes

I agree with the 4 petals - but what else could it be - it really looks like Ludwigia
There are a few Ludwigias in this area with five petals. L. peploides and L. leptocarpa. I believe peploides occurs in that area. Was it growing in water?

"We based Tyler, who is a very annoying guy, on a good friend of ours. When we told him, we thought he might be upset, but he loves it."
Related quotes
"The way we speak of our parents teaches our children the way they will speak of us to our grandchildren."
"When you have a pitcher as gifted as Tyler, you've got to like your chances. He throws strikes, he hits the corners, he's just a special pitcher. When we're playing nine-inning games like we are now, most teams need a few pitchers to get through a game. Tyler is very efficient, so he can finish it off himself."
"Tyler really works on his game. And he has a real, solid, compact game. He's not a big guy, but he's long enough off the tee. His swing is much different than Ross', but his demeanor is similar."
"We thought maybe the guy throwing it in would be open, and that was Tyler. He wasn't as open as I hoped."
"Tyler is an awesome player and the other guys really compliment what he does. It seemed like any time we made a little run it was different players coming up with big shots. They just kept coming at us from a lot of different angles and did a good job getting us back on our heels."

Since graduating from the University of Tennessee Law School in 1980, I have worked diligently to establish myself nationally as an authority on the intricacies of DUI law. My background in the sciences gave me a unique perspective in defending those accused of DUI. I have successfully represented over two thousand clients charged with DUI. In 2006, I became the first DUI lawyer in Tennessee to be recognized by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education and Specialization as a certified specialist in the area of DUI Defense law.
I am the author of the state treatise entitled, "DUI: The Crimes & Consequences in Tennessee"; and since 2003, have been the co-author of the national treatise "Drunk Driving Defense" with Lawrence Taylor of Long Beach, California. Both texts are widely relied upon by judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers. In 1995, I became a founding member of The National College for DUI Defense, Inc. and have served on their Board of Regents since 1999. During 2009-2010 I had the honor to serve as Dean of the College. I have also served as chair or co-chair of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers' DUI Committee since 1995. For more details about my background and experience as a Tennessee DUI attorney, you may view my resume / vitae.
I am also a frequent contributor to The Champion, the official publication of The National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. I am one of only a few lawyers in the nation who have been certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to administer the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests. I have also been trained as a Drug Recognition Evaluator and have taught thousands of lawyers on the Field Sobriety Tests and hundreds on the Drug Recognition Tests.
I have handled cases from the General Sessions Court (our lowest court in Tennessee) all the way to the Tennessee Supreme Court. After my argument in a DUI case before the Tennessee Supreme Court, the Court unanimously dismissed the charge against my client.
I am honored to have been selected as Business Tennessee Magazine's "Best Lawyers List" each year since 2004 when the list was first published. Recognizing my contributions to the field of DUI defense, it described me as:
"'Godfather statewide in the area of DUI.' With his treatise on DUI in Tennessee, which debuted in 1991 and has appeared annually since then, stays at the forefront of drunk driving defense in the state. Represents high-profile clients in Knoxville and across the eastern part of the country. 'Brilliant lawyer, great teacher.' Well-regarded trial attorney with 'professorial' demeanor. . ." Alexei Smirnov, Best Lawyers in Tennessee, Business Tennessee Magazine, p. 50 (January 2004). I was also named Knoxville's 2013 Lawyer of the Year by the "Best Lawyers" organization in the area of Criminal Defense, Non-White-Collar Crime. Moreover, "U.S. News and World Report" designated Oberman & Rice as a "Tier 1 Best Law Firm" in Tennessee for DUI Defense and Criminal Defense.
Some of my other honors include: Receiving the highest rating from the renown Martindale-Hubbell™ and AVVO rating system; Named as a "Mid-South Super Lawyer," a "Top 100 Trial Lawyer" by the American Trial Lawyers Association, a "Best Lawyer in America" by a publication of the same name, and one of Knoxville CityView Magazine's "Top Attorneys."
Moreover, I have enjoyed my work as an adjunct professor at the University of Tennessee Law School since 1993 and have received prestigious awards for my faculty contributions.
I spend my "spare time" speaking at seminars throughout the United States on various topics relating to DUI defense. My audiences have included seminar attendees of the National College for DUI Defense, Inc., the American Bar Association, and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. I have been honored to speak to various bar associations and organizations in more than 17 states in addition to Tennessee, a Court Clerks Meeting in Cambridge, England, the Criminal Lawyers Association of Canada, and sveral judicial conferences in Canda about DUI defense. In 2002, I was honored to demonstrate cross-examination techniques and lecture at the FBI Training Academy in Quantico, Virginia on the topic of courtroom testimony and in 2006, I was appointed to the Governor's Task Force on DUI Laws in Tennessee.
I hope you will take the opportunity to contact me to discuss your case. The chances of obtaining a successful result will increase dramatically if you obtain representation within a few days of your arrest. DUI cases can affect your career and your life - forever. While I can never guarantee a result, you have my assurance that no one will give you or your case more attention. Steve Oberman

This book records another book. The artist picked up a second-hand copy of the publication Modern Art in Everyday Life, then found another copy at a later date, in another bookshop, that had been annotated by an anonymous author. The material changes undergone from its original publication to resurfacing in a bargain bin are portrayed here.
