David Ortiz named American League's best offensive player |
10.26.16 at 7:01 pm ET |
Major League Baseball announced Wednesday that Ortiz has won the Hank Aaron Award for the American League, given to the best offensive performer in each league. The Cubs' Kris Bryant claimed the honor for the National League.
Fans voted for the recipients on MLB.com and Twitter, and for the seventh straight year, a special panel of Hall of Fame players led by Hank Aaron joined fans in voting for the Awards.The Hall of Fame panel includes some of the greatest offensive players of all-time, such as Roberto Alomar, Johnny Bench, Craig Biggio, Ken Griffey Jr., Eddie Murray and Robin Yount. These Hall of Famers – who combined for 17,010 hits, 8,844 RBI and 2,275 home runs – were all personally selected by Aaron to lend their expertise to select the best offensive performer in each League.
It is the second time Ortiz has won the award, previously collecting the prize in 2005. Previous Red Sox players to be named Hank Aaron Award winners were Manny Ramirez (2004) and Kevin Youkilis (2008).
In the final season of his 20-year Major League career, Ortiz led all players with a .620 slugging percentage, a 1.021 OPS and 48 doubles. The Dominican Republic native batted .315 with 38 home runs, 127 RBI (tied for first in the A.L.), 80 walks and a .401 on-base percentage. His 38 homers – which included 16 of the go-ahead variety – and 127 RBI were his best totals since 2006. According to the Elias Sports Bureau,
Ortiz established single-season records for players over the age of 40 in home runs, RBI, doubles and extra-base
Kyle Schwarber adds even more motivation for player who might be next year's Red Sox first baseman, Sam Travis |
10.26.16 at 2:11 pm ET |
Sam Travis is a motivated individual. Talking to him for a few moments, that's easy to uncover.
"Since I was four or five years old I've been telling people I was going to play major league baseball," said the Red Sox' first base prospect when reached by phone Wednesday. "They were laughing back then but I don't see them laughing no more."
Tuesday night just upped Travis' adrenaline.
While gathered together with some former Indiana University teammates to watch Game 1 of the World Series, Travis witnessed his latest round of motivation. The group were watching their friend, and former college teammate, Kyle Schwarber, start for the Cubs despite having played just two regular season games due to a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee suffered back in early April.
It was an enormous storyline for anybody watching the Series, but was particularly poignant for Travis.
Not only was Schwarber one of the first baseman's good friends, having dominated the middle of the Hoosiers' batting order before Travis was taken in the second round of the 2014 draft, but they had also come across another bond during the 2016 season. Just about 1 1/2 months after Schwarber's injury, Travis suffered his own left knee injury, tearing the ACL.
And while all has been going as planned in Travis' rehabilitation ("I'll be good to go at spring training. There's no doubt in my mind I'll be ready to go," he said), the sight of Schwarber stepping on baseball's biggest stage after just a few Arizona Fall League at-bats and ripping a double off the right field wall in his second at-bat was the kind of motivation doctors, physical therapists and strength coaches just couldn't offer.
"It was awesome," said the energetic 23-year-old. "I talked to [Schwarber] a few days ago when he was playing out in Arizona. When he found out he was flying to Cleveland, emotions were definitely flying. You couldn't be happier for the guy. He's always worked his ass off. It couldn't happen to a better guy. When he almost went deep yesterday I was going crazy. I was fired up.
"Usually it takes guys a couple of weeks to get in the swing of things, especially at this level. But watching him, he looked really comfortable after five at-bats. You can't make that up. He's fun to watch. Just an unbelievable guy."
Corey Kluber, Roberto Perez help keep Terry Francona undefeated in World Series play, lead Indians to Game 1 win over Cubs |
10.25.16 at 11:49 pm ET |
The same formula that has worked for Cleveland throughout the postseason — getting ahead and staying there — translated into a 6-0 Game 1 win over the Cubs at Progressive Field Tuesday night.
It improves the Indians to 8-1 this postseason, having now claimed four shutouts while giving up a total of just 15 runs. The shutout was Cleveland's fourth of the playoffs, tying them with four other teams for the major league postseason record.
It was a victory that bodes well for Terry Francona's team, with 12 of the last 13 Game 1 winners have gone on to win the World Series. Francona also remains undefeated in World Series play, having now won all nine of the Fall Classic games he has managed.
The stars in this one were Cleveland starter Corey Kluber and his catcher, Roberto Perez.
Kluber absolutely dominated the Cubs from the get-go. The Indians' ace became the first pitcher in postseason history to strikeout eight batters in the first three innings. He would go on to pitch six scoreless innnings, allowing just four hits while fanning nine and not walking a batter.
Perez supplied a good chunk of the Indians' offense, hitting a pair of home runs. The first one was a fourth-inning solo shot, with the catcher then sealing the win with an eighth-inning, three-run blast.
The first threat mounted by the Cubs didn't come until seventh inning when Kluber was driven from the game after Ben Zobrist hit the righty's 88th, and final, pitch into left field for a leadoff single. Reliever Andrew Miller proceeded to load the bases after Kyle Schwarber walk and Javier Baez single.
But Miller came back to induce a fly out to shallow center off the bat of pinch-hitter Wilson Contreras before striking out both Addison Russell and David Ross.
Miller had to get out of a jam again in the eighth, putting runners on first and second with two outs. But the lefty fanned Schwarber with a slider on what was a season-high 46th pitch.
Taking the loss was Chicago starter Jon Lester, whose only real poor inning came in the first when he gave up a run-scoring infield single off the bat of Jose Ramirez before forcing in a run by hitting Brandon Guyer. The only other run given up by Lester came on Perez's solo homer.
Lester finished his 5 2/3-inning outing having allowed six hits, while striking out seven and walking three.
Dave Dombrowski explains how he is reconfiguring Red Sox' front office |
10.25.16 at 7:15 pm ET |
The change in the Red Sox' front office this offseason, started of course, with Mike Hazen heading to the Diamondbacks to become their general manager. And then, this weekend, news came down that team's international and amateur scouting director, Amiel Sawdaye, would be following Hazen to Arizona.
That led to Dave Dombrowski having to shift things around a bit.
Tuesday, in a conference call with the media, Dombrowski explained his approach when it comes to reconfiguring the Red Sox' front office, which included the promotion of Eddie Romero to assistant general manager while forgoing naming a replacement to Hazen in the GM position:
"When I set the departments up at this time, and I guess I should probably address as mentioned to you before, really went into this with the idea of hiring a general manager and there were two ways to go about doing it, one was internal, one was external. There were a lot of names on the list that were external that I think would have done a very good job.
"Interviewed two people here first in Eddie and Amiel. Were very impressed with both of them. However, I didn't think from their exposure to the major leagues at this point were quite ready to be general managers. Thought it would be better for them to step into that next area in being an assistant. Amiel, Mike Hazen had asked if he could take an individual with him and we granted him permission to take Amiel to interview for. And Amiel felt it was best for his situation to go ahead and take that assistant role with the Diamondbacks. He and Mike have worked very closely together over the years and we're very thankful for everything he did for the organization but I thought it was better to stay internal with promoting individuals of course with Eddie's promotion some of the other things that will take place without title changes attached to them, we have now had our instability of having people move on, the compliment to Amiel is that he's grown Eddie to be in charge of Latin America which Amiel used to be involved in but Eddie now has been running that as well as the world from an international perspective.
"[Amateur scouting director] Mike Rikard, who has been our – Amiel had trained him – has been in charge of the draft the last coulee of years. We're in very capable hands with Mike. He will be with us for a long-term basis. We're also in a position where we have a director of professional scouting Gus Quattlebaum who will continue to have more put on his plate as far as preparation for trades. Also, [farm director] Ben Crockett is director of player development, he will continue to be in that role. [vice president of baseball administration] Raquel [Ferreira] will continue to be our vice president of baseball administration, she does a tremendous job for us. Zack Scott, which he basically has done, will have more growth within our analytics department. He will continue to head that.
"A place that I felt I would need some assistance as far as contacting other major league clubs when it comes down to trades, we're in a spot where we have real good evaluators within our organization, very pleased with our professional scouts. This is more when I'm working directly on special assignment scouts and major league scouts, but we're in a position where two people who could help me a great deal on that and that's Frank Wren and Allard Baird. So they'll continue to live where they live. They'll be in Boston a little bit more often, but they'll have increased responsibilities in their roles of helping me contact other major league clubs and be involved in trade conversations in addition to their analytics, analyzing and evaluating those clubs. With Allard taking more of that approach, he will not travel to the Far East as much as he has in the past but he will continue to oversee that.
"[Director of player personnel] Jared Banner will be in a position where he'll be promoted and assume more responsibilities and he will run that operation for us and he'll also assume some other responsibilities when it comes to player evaluation. So that kind of sets us up going into the future. I think it's a really good hand. I thought the promoting of these individuals and giving them more responsibilities would be beneficial rather than brining in someone from outside the organization. I think this group is more than capable of handling the responsibilities."
Red Sox won't hire general manager, promote Eddie Romero to senior vice president/assistant general manager |
10.25.16 at 1:08 pm ET |
The Red Sox announced Tuesday afternoon they will not hire a general manager and have promoted Eddie Romero to senior vice president/assistant general manager after Mike Hazen left the team for the GM position with the Diamondbacks.
Romero along with senior vice president/assistant general manager, Brian O'Halloran, will both directly report to president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski and assist in all aspects of baseball operations going forward.
This comes after Romero was elevated to the position of vice president for international scouting at the start of last season.
"The Red Sox are very pleased to announce Eddie's promotion to assistant general manager," said Dombrowski in a statement. "This is a very talented individual who we think can make a real impact for us with his background in player evaluation and his knowledge of our minor league system. A native Spanish speaker, his ability to communicate with both players and staff is significant, especially in today's game. We look forward to having Eddie on board to assist our efforts to improve our ball club."

Sources: Red Sox scouting chief Amiel Sawdaye joining Mike Hazen in Arizona |
10.24.16 at 10:51 pm ET |
According to multiple major league sources, Red Sox vice-president of amateur and international scouting Amiel Sawdaye is slated to become the Arizona Diamondbacks assistant general manager. Sawdaye joins former Red Sox general manager Mike Hazen, who left to run baseball operations for Arizona.
The University of Maryland graduate joined the Red Sox as an intern in 2002-03 before becoming a scouting assistant in 2004-05. Sawdaye was named assistant amateur scouting director in 2005, serving in the position until '09.
Sawdaye took over as the director of amateur scouting in 2010, replacing current Chicago Cubs assistant GM Jason McLeod, running the Red Sox' amateur drafts during the drafting of players such as Jackie Bradley Jr., Mookie Betts, Travis Shaw, Blake Swihart, Michael Kopech and Sam Travis.
It is unknown if the Red Sox will formally replace Hazen's GM position, with pro scouting director Gus Quattlebaum and international scouting director Eddie Romero among those mentioned as candidates for promotions.
Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic was first to report the news of Sawdaye's move.
Terry Francona, Indians headed to World Series |
10.19.16 at 6:46 pm ET |
The Indians, and former Red Sox, manager guided his team to a 3-0 win over the Blue Jays Wednesday afternoon, clinching Cleveland's first World Series berth since 1997, not having won the Series since 1948.
Andrew Miller was named MVP for the American League Championship Series, not allowing a run over 7 2/3 innings, striking out 14 and not walking a batter.
It was the fourth time the Indians entered a Game 5 ahead in the series 3-1, having lost the three previous Game 5 opportunities.
The Indians, who won 94 regular season games, improved to 7-1 this postseason. The shutout of the Jays was the third time during this playoff run Cleveland held its opponent scoreless, and marked the first time Toronto had ever been shutout at home in the postseason.
Cleveland starting pitcher Ryan Merritt, who appeared in just four games (making one start) in the regular season, held the Blue Jays scoreless through 4 1/3 innings. The lefty allowed just two hits while not walking a batter before giving way to Brian Shaw.
After a scoreless inning from Shaw, Andrew Miller did his thing, throwing two scoreless frames. Cody Allen finished things off, recording the final three outs to punch the Indians' ticket to the World Series.
The Cleveland offense was paced by a pair of home runs, coming from Carlos Santana and Coco Crisp.
The Blue Jays managed just one runner in scoring position for the entire game. Toronto finished the series just 1-for-35 with two outs and a man on base.
Man David Ortiz credits with saving his career, Dan Dyrek, leaving Red Sox |
10.19.16 at 2:17 pm ET |
WEEI.com has learned that Dan Dyrek, who has been the team's coordinator of sports medicine service since after the 2012 season, will not be returning for 2017. The 63-year-old had asked the Red Sox not to extend him a contract offer at the completion of the '16 season, having his term coincide with the completion of David Ortiz's retirement.
One of the most well-respected physical therapists in all of sports, Dyrek's key contribution since assuming his role with the Red Sox involved Ortiz. He was credited by both the player and the organization as perhaps the most important element in keeping the designated hitter on the field after Ortiz suffered a career-threatening heel injury in 2012.
Dyrek's presence was deemed so important by the slugger that Ortiz requested ownership allow the physical therapist to travel with the team for all road games over the last few months.
"Huge. Huge," said Ortiz when asked about the importance of Dyrek. "When he's not around I'm not feeling comfortable. My feet hurt when he's not around, more than usual. I swear.
"He started traveling everywhere because everybody wanted a piece of him. But this last month I told the owner we need him around 24-7 [24 hours a day, 7 days a week] because he's incredible."
Ortiz went so far as to say he most likely would have have retired before 2016 if not for Dyrek.
"Probably. Probably, because I was in so much pain," Ortiz told WEEI.com when if he would have previously called it quits if Dyrek didn't join the club. "All the treatments and all the stuff I've followed up with him, it has been right on. He tells me how my feet are going to feel."
Ortiz wasn't the first Boston sports icon who had Dyrek help prolong their career, with Larry Bird crediting the former collegiate swimmer in allowing him to play long enough to participate in the 1992 Summer Olympics with the first "Dream Team" in Barcelona.
Dyrek will continue his clinical practice by assisting Bird's Indiana Pacers, and consulting with teams and pro athletes nationally and internationally.
Former Red Sox reliever Burke Badenhop slams Tim Tebow signing because of $100k bonus |
10.19.16 at 11:14 am ET |
Former Red Sox reliever Burke Badenhop has no problem with baseball teams giving Tim Tebow a look. But signing him for $100,000? That's where he draws the line.
Writing a column for MLB Trade Rumors, Badenhop blasted the Mets for disrespecting the work it took marginal prospects such as himself to reach the majors. He can't believe Tebow received a bonus commensurate with a pick in the top 10 rounds when it's clear he lacks the skill to be a big leaguer.
"Big leaguers are found all over the draft," Badenhop wrote. "For every first-round superstar like Kris Bryant, you'll find a Daniel Murphy in the 13th round. I was drafted in the 19th round as a college senior. I signed for $1,000. You could draft 100 of me for the price of one Tim Tebow. Such a thought only elicits feelings of disrespect."
Badenhop was kinder to Tebow's game, which many scouts consider limited and one compared to an actor attempting to play a baseball player, like Freddie Prinze Jr. in Summer Catch.
"Tebow's swing looked fine to me," Badenhop wrote. "It was definitely long, but it was powerful and fell far short of looking as bad as a Charles Barkley golf swing. Tebow's outfield work definitely left more to be desired, though. He shagged fly balls with an awkward 'five step drop' type of footwork. And I couldn't stop looking at his glove. Not the type of glove or the color or anything, but how it was broken in. It was just wrong. It didn't have a pocket, it was bent in a weird way and he had all five fingers in each finger hole, which I've never seen an outfielder do."
In any event, Badenhop resents the Mets seemingly allowing Tebow to short-circuit the process.
"To see a team give a 29-year-old with no baseball experience a six-figure bonus because he was good at college football was confusing," he wrote. "The road to 'The Show' isn't a walk in the park. You don't get to the big leagues as a 19th-rounder and stay without earning it. It was a badge of honor for me. This signing makes it seem that maybe teams don't take the grind as seriously as the players do. It sends a very mixed message."
The rest of the piece is worth reading.
Tom Tippett, Red Sox statistical analyst, is leaving organization |
10.18.16 at 5:58 pm ET |
The off-field losses continue to mount for the Red Sox.
One day after Mike Hazen was introduced as the new general manager of the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Red Sox also lost one of their brightest minds when the club confirmed that senior baseball analyst Tom Tippett will leave the organization when his contract expires at the end of the month to pursue other ventures.
Tippett said by e-mail that he informed Hazen of his decision in September. Tippett's departure marks the end of a 13-year career with the Red Sox. He rose to prominence in the early '90s with his Diamond Mind computer simulation, which the Red Sox used to help determine their Division Series roster against the A's in 2003.
A native of Canada and graduate of Harvard Business School, Tippett will continue working for the Red Sox through Halloween. He headed up development of their in-house statistical analysis systems and supplied data regarding player personnel decisions.
The news was first reported on Twitter by Peter Gammons.

We are only a couple of hours away from iOS 7 release but that hasn't stopped a hacker from releasing an untethered jailbreak video of iOS 6.1.4. Yup folks, the jailbreak video-confirmation for iOS 6.1.4 is finally here. Check out the video of the iOS 6.1.4 untethered jailbreak below.
iOS 6.1.4 Untethered Jailbreak
Winocm, a hacker who has recently risen among the ranks in the iOS jailbreak community posted a video today, showing an iPhone 5 running Cydia on it. This iPhone 5 was on iOS 6.1.4, which as you might know, can not be jailbroken using the current tools.
This hacker who has been working in the iOS jailbreak community (most developing Cydia tweaks) for some years took a go at jailbreaking an iOS device. Well according to the pictures and videos, it seems he has succeed.
Today he posted a video showing an iPhone 5 untethered jailbroken on iOS 6.1.4. You can check out the jailbreak video below:
As you can see from the video, this is a preliminary jailbreak, which basically means that there are still lots of bugs present in the software that Winocm is using to jailbreak the iPhone in the video.
This video showing the untethered jailbreak of iOS 6.1.4 is definitely real, which might stop some people from calling the person behind this jailbreak fake. Also as this is a preliminary jailbreak, do not expect this jailbreak to be released soon. In fact we are not even sure if Winocm will release the jailbreak at all!
As iOS 7 is near release, some people have already started working on the jailbreak for it, so we might even see unexpected jailbreak releases in the future!
Well, this is definitely great news for many people who had been waiting for a jailbreak for this specific version. If you are not planning to upgrade to iOS 7 then this iOS 6.1.4 untethered jailbreak video should come as a relief to you.

Top of camera controls
On top of the camera you will find the power switch at the front surrounding the shutter release button. Directly behind this are the exposure mode and exposure compensation (audio clip) buttons. Behind these are the backlight and user programmable FUNC button. On the rear edge of the camera is the command dial, which is used in combination with a button press to change some but not all settings (which can be a little confusing at first).
Buttons (Record mode)
MODE | Exposure Mode Hold this button and rotate the command dial to select exposure / scene mode:
Exposure Compensation |
Backlight Press the backlight button once to turn on the green backlight for the Control Panel display, it remains lit for approximately eight seconds. |
Buttons (Play mode)

Exposure modes
The exposure modes listed below are only available if the 'User setting' menu option is set to Custom 1 or Custom 2.
Programmed Auto Exposure Camera calculates shutter speed and aperture for best possible exposure, turning the command dial in this mode allows you to choose from a "Flexible program" selection of shutter speeds and apertures which would achieve the same exposure (P* is displayed in this mode), turning to the right chooses higher shutter speed and larger apertures, turning to the left chooses smaller apertures and slower shutter speeds, for example a shot in medium light:
Just like previous prosumer Coolpix digital cameras the 8700 only displays full stop shutter speeds (1/500, 1/250, 1/125 etc.) although checking the EXIF data after the shot shows that it actually has a much finer gradation of shutter speeds available. |
Shutter Priority In this mode you select the shutter speed and the camera will calculate the correct aperture depending on metered exposure, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity. Shutter speed is displayed on the LCD / EVF and control panel, turn the command dial to select different shutter speeds. Available shutter speeds:
Bulb exposures are only available in Manual exposure mode. As commented on above the 8700 only ever allows the selection of full stop shutter speeds, it would have been nice to be given the option of third stop steps. The 1/4000 sec shutter speed is only available between F5.0 and F8.0 (wide angle) and F7.4 (telephoto). |
Aperture Priority In this mode you select the aperture and the camera will calculate the correct shutter speed depending on metered exposure, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity. Aperture is displayed on the LCD / EVF and control panel, turn the command dial to select different apertures. Available apertures:
Manual Exposure |
* At shutter speeds slower than 1/4 sec the Noise Reduction feature (if enabled) will take an additional shot after the main shot which it uses to 'map out' hot pixel noise. Note that when Noise Reduction is enabled you can not use BSS, Bracketing or Continuous shooting.
Lens barrel controls
In the left of the camera mounted on the lens barrel are four control buttons which when supporting the barrel with your left hand are in easy reach of your thumb. Just as with other buttons on the camera some change a setting with a single press, some require a hold of the button and turn of the command dial, although at least here this is indicated diagrammatically. These buttons have no function in play mode.
One slight annoyance with these double-function buttons is that you must turn the command dial two clicks before it registers a change of setting. For example if you hold the image quality button and turn the command dial one click you would expect the image size to change but it will only change on the next click.

Readers' response to little Rishu's story that appeared in Hindustan Times on Wednesday is overwhelming. From local residents to people from the US and even China have expressed wish to help the child and his mother.
Rishu's father abandoned the three-year-old child and his mother Sangeeta Singh, when he came to know that the child had a hole in his heart. But Rishhu and his mother found refuge, when the management of a mosque 'adopted' Rishu and Sangeeta. Soon, devotees started collecting money for his treatment.
The mosque management also wrote to the Prime Minister's Office, which quickly sent Rs 50,000. The Kamdhenu society at the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute for Medical Sciences, too, extended Rs 10,000. The operation has been scheduled for October 29.
soon after the story appeared on the Hindustan Times e-paper, the first email came from Rahul Gupta. He wrote from Shenzhen in China, "I would like to know … where I can give some money to help and try to get some from other people also."
Nirmala Walters, whose e-mail did not specify where she is based, wrote, "Help me to reach my help to the child and his mother." Sanjiv Diwan said, "Please forward me the address were I can send my humble help for Rishu."
SS Kushwaha from Delhi wrote that he would like "to undertake all the expenditure in connection with the treatment of the boy… and all other costs, including the maintenance of the poor mother."

What is Art in Embassies?
AIE fosters U.S. relations within local communities world-wide – an integral aspect of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's commitment to smART power. In the last decade, more than 100 artists have traveled to countries participating in AIE's exchange programs and collaborated with local artists to produce works now on display in embassies and consulates. Going forward, AIE will continue to engage, educate, and inspire global audiences, showing how art can transcend national borders and build connections among peoples.
When did AIE begin?
The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) initiated temporary exhibitions of contemporary art for U.S. ambassadors' residences in 1953. Ten years later President John F. Kennedy established ART in Embassies within the U.S. Department of State.
How does AIE fulfill the mission of the U.S. Department of State?
AIE advances cultural diplomacy through the presentation of works by outstanding American and international artists to audiences around the world. Art permanently placed in our diplomatic and consular missions furthers cultural exchange, highlights American and international artists, and creates bridges with the world's cultures by demonstrating American appreciation for local aesthetics and traditions.
Where is the art exhibited?
The art is installed in the public rooms of U.S. embassy residences worldwide, as well as new chanceries, consulates, and annexes.
Who selects the works of art?
AIE curators are art historians who have extensive knowledge and experience of contemporary U.S. and international art. They are responsible for researching and selecting art for all exhibitions and collections. Using their academic backgrounds and widespread contacts with art professionals around the world, our curators provide in-depth expertise on art and artists from the U.S. and host countries.
What is a temporary exhibition?
Temporary exhibitions include works on loan from artists, museums, dealers, corporate collections, private collectors and other partners. The length of a loan is approximately three years. The Department of State also owns a small collection of works that are regularly incorporated into temporary exhibitions.
What is a permanent exhibition?
AIE permanent collections include art acquired for U.S. embassies, consulates, and annexes built in recent years. Both American and local artists are always included. Every collection serves as a bridge with the host country's arts and celebrates the ties between American and local visual cultures. Collections can include site-specific and commissioned works.
How many artists are featured in Art in Embassies exhibitions each year?
More than 2,000 artists participate every year. AIE engages hundreds of new partners each year for its exhibitions and collections.
Are lenders compensated in any way?
Artists and lenders receive international exposure through events hosted by the embassy that are attended by prominent political, business, and academic leaders as well as members of the local arts community. AIE acknowledges its partners through bi and tri-lingual exhibition labels, web publications produced by our office, and inclusion on our web site. Many U.S. embassies feature exhibitions on their official websites, extending accessibility to thousands of host country, international, and U.S. citizens annually.
How do I become a lender?
To submit images for consideration, click on the '
Submitting Art
' link at the bottom of the screen and register. We will contact you.
How can I highlight my association with Art in Embassies on my resume or in the press?
The exhibitions are created, managed, insured and shipped by the Office of Art in Embassies under the U.S. Department of State. Any reference to your participation in a temporary exhibition or permanent collection should cite the Office of Art in Embassies.

Were you aware that this video was funded by the Church of Scientoloy?
ReplyDelete - AnonymousApril 30, 2013 2:22 pm
Just google Dr. Rima Laibow and Church of Scientology - it's all there
ReplyDeleteRepliesEven, even if she is a member how does that detract from the facts? Everything she says is well established fact, and all provable through documentation, and again, what funding is needed to produce a video in your own home?
That Gary again is it?Look anon, I'm not getting into the 100 questions routine, I can't be arsed.
'IF' you have any proof to counter anything that this lady has quite categorically stated, or anything to prove her a liar or a fake, simply collate the evidence against her and post it here....What could be easier?
If you can't do that, then stop bothering me with your fairy tale nonsense.
- AnonymousApril 30, 2013 4:38 pm
Just spent an hour googling Dr Laibow, a lot of sites giving it large about her but none with actual facts. Digging a little deeper I found out she is a qualified medical doctor who specialised and practiced psychiatry for several years and had a thriving practice. I can find no proof that she has any involvement in scientology, maybe anon above could direct us to where they found the evidence for their quote.
ReplyDelete - AnonymousMarch 29, 2014 9:14 pm
Scientologists and Mormons are crazy but they can also be great people. Scientology runs an Anti-Psychiatric meds campaign and rehab program, I believe. If she is a psychiatrist and a scientologist that would be contradictory unless she conducts alternative therapy.

You won't move out west because of the time zone.....? You'll get used to that, dude.
Why can't you raise kids in New Smyrna? Aaron Cormican hails from there and he turned out just fine.
If you have the ability to move ANYWHERE and surfing is a factor why the Southeast? What aboot Montauk, NY; Deal, NJ; or Ventnor, NJ. No seriously, why are your choices so limited?
Ocean City, Maryland is nice. It gets consistent waves(by east coast standards), it's not scary like Camden, it's not all red-neck burn outs like parts of Florida, and seems to enjoy a nice quality of life. Busy summers and mellow winters gives you the best of both worlds. It's got a cool vibe there.
Northern New Jersey gives you a plethora of surf choices, great schools, the best governor in U.S. history, a mix of good and bad neighborhoods that will give you and your kids some edge to you(Colts Neck to Newark), and the greatest city in the world is just a hop, skip and a jump away. It has anything you want. Plus, Dowd the Third lives around there and he's top dog.
Boston is the best city in the U.S., in my opinion. Best education opportunities for your youngins, and a sophisticated townie atmosphere that lends to well-rounded individuals. Hob knob in Cambridge, and drink beer in a neighborhood bar in Dorchester. Many happy college students abound. Good job opportunities. Yes, you'll have to drive to surf, but New England is friggin scenic man. Spark one up and enjoy the ride.
Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Island can all be at your Boston doorstep, and there's spots in Mass, besides The Cape, that can be much happy on the right swell(inconsistent but happens...shoot you can even surf in the Boston Harbor sometimes...) And Cape Cod is awesome - a quaint wilderness. Though it must kind of suck in the summer with the summer tourists, unless you're wired for to accept and enjoy that stuff. I wish I was....I'm getting there though.
Though Boston area roadways suck with the traffic....more annoying than LA, in my opinion, but not as quite as annoying as the DC/Northern Virginia area.
Listen man, I can dig Charleston's historical and cultural vibe. Totally. And Southern North Carolina is home to the world's best woman - Jenelle...........
But Erock doesn't need more people paddling out at Masonboro or C St. Please respect him and scratch Wrightsville Beach off of your list. Thank You.
Erock's the man. I enjoy his knowledge and fish stories and I really don't care for fishermen too much. That shows his exceptionalism. And I'm not playing games Erock. I'm serious.
And World B. Freilinghaus (sorry if I botched the name, dude) is a righteous dude. Some of you guys make me accept and even like humanity. World B, you coming back to Jersey for Thanksgiving or Christmas?

My Dear Mr. Bear. Good tidings to you and to all the assembled.
Alas the travels for the year have been exhausted. Just back in Chiba City after a sweet week in PR. Had some of the best conditions of my life and I'm still flyin'. Girl B. is already hooking up our next sojourn.
Isle of Chiba for this am's dawn patrol seemed awfully cold by comparison...but a nice sesh never the less. You Yankees do me proud storming the beach at this time of year! Keep it warm.
Fear not Jet; we'll charge those Deal 23 footers some day...until then I'll just tilt with windmills.
Slide on.

Dudebrobra, You want to move to WrightsVille Beach. It has UNCW 10 minutes away and there is literally beautiful girls everywhere. Watch out for bad drivers though. Waves are decent, pretty much knee to waste high close outs everyday but you get a handful of fun days each month. There is a "notsosecret" spot on the south side of the island, you paddle 15 minutes across the inlet and there is a whole protected barrier island that has pretty good surf. You have to pay to park here in the busy season, which was a pain in the ass in my opinion. Fun town though!

with all due respect, why do people only post pics of their spot's most epic day of the year? I surfed the area for 2 years and it rarely got that big.
I'm guessing the op is more interested in consistency than that one day that it goes off...well, I wouldLast edited by waterbaby; Nov 18, 2013 at 09:12 PM.

Isle of Palm was waist to stomach and clean Saturday and Sunday. There have been decent waves there for the last 2 weeks, and it looks like we will see chest high on Wednesday. Again, SC may not be as good as NC, but we have plenty of fun days. And Folly/IOP are some of the best and most consistent beaches in the state. It is a fickle area sometimes and knowing the right spots and sandbars is key. I don't get the hate. It isn't that bad here. As far as "rarely getting that big", I think you are describing the entire east coast.

It takes some nerve to claim inspiration from Diaghilev. The great Russian impresario is the linking theme for five new pieces danced by the Royal Ballet. There's live music, some newly commissioned. All well-intentioned, but good choreographers are rare: there's only one piece I want to see again.
It takes some nerve to claim inspiration from Diaghilev. The great Russian impresario is the linking theme for five new pieces danced by the Royal Ballet. There's live music, some newly commissioned. All well-intentioned, but good choreographers are rare: there's only one piece I want to see again.
Alastair Marriott's Being and Having Been is set to L'Envoi d'Icare by Igor Markevitch. It's a rattling percussive score, and Marriott moves his dancers well. Three stand bent over, knees and elbows squared. They stay linked, bobbing and bending, palms held flat. Those motifs come back throughout the ballet, danced by corps and principals. They have Diaghilev roots: flat palms from Nijinksy's Faune, jumps with flexed feet from his Rite of Spring.
Marriott uses his Diaghilev with force and detail. There's a juiciness to his references: when Bethany Keating bourrées in alone, you notice the long silhouette of a woman on pointe. As she turns, stretching a foot out, there's powerful contrast in that swinging leg. Adam Wiltshire's designs suggest Jean Cocteau and Coco Chanel, both Diaghilev collaborators: bathing-suits with Cocteau-ish squiggles, swimming caps and driving gloves in bright colours.
The rest of the evening ranges from inept to blandly pert. Robert Garland's Spring Rites is, well, another Rite of Spring ballet. Philip Cornfield and Henry Roche play the piano version's first movement, while the dancers hitch themselves into jazz poses. Garland goes in for leggy, strutting steps, and uses them again here. It looks confident, but it wears thin. He has little sense of Stravinsky's musical architecture and keeps recycling kicks and turns.
After Vanessa Fenton's On Public Display, I remembered Garland with some fondness. Mara Galeazzi presides over a futuristic puppet show. The corps shuffle around and do her bidding. Natasha Oughtred and Martin Harvey dance droopy pierrot numbers, carefully covering their mouths to remind us they cannot speak.
Music and designs are strikingly awful. Bruce French dresses the corps in black leotards with red piping and silly little hats, giving Harvey a fright-wig and white-face make-up. Vince Clarke, who once made cheerful synth-pop, has made a soundtrack of fairground noise, with a chunk of Shostakovich thrown in.
Cathy Marston's Venetian Requiem is a duet for Edward Watson and Lauren Cuthbertson, all blank gesture and grappled partnering. Judith Bingham's score, a setting of the Lacrimosa for saxophone and countertenor, meanders on.
A World of Art, by the Canadian choreographer Matjash Mrozewski, is a fuzzy portrait of Diaghilev at work. The dancers circle round a table, jumping on and off it, as ballets are inspired and created. The musicians play bits of Stravinsky. The dance numbers are weak, the narrative half-hearted. It's a wobbly end to a mixed evening.

Even though Kevin Williamson's new Fox series, The Following, doesn't premiere until January 2013, it's still the center of all kinds of spoilery buzz. The pilot has already generated applause from screeners and is building a reputation as the 'scariest show TV has ever seen'. Williamson and series stars, Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy, will take you inside the darkest parts of this thriller and tease the beginnings of this page turning story.

O'Driscoll is back in the Leinster starting XV having finally recovered from straining a medial knee ligament in Ireland's Six Nations defeat by Scotland.
But the defending Heineken Cup champions will have their work cut out to tame a Clermont side packed with Grand Slam winners including influential scrum-half Morgan Parra.
And O'Driscoll, who captained Ireland during their 33-10 defeat in the Stade de France during the Six Nations, knows first hand the threat Clermont will pose this evening.
"They have a lot of French players in their squad who play in critical positions and who are obviously in excellent form coming off the back of such a successful Six Nations," he said.
"In Morgan Parra, Julien Malzieu and Jamie Cudmore they have some real quality and having watched some of their recent footage it's clear that they're playing some impressive stuff.
"We know that Clermont performed so strongly in Thomond Park last year and that they will take confidence from that game, so coming to the RDS will hold no fear for them.
"They are a side who are capable of going anywhere, playing well and winning.
"I'm sure that they would like nothing better than to come over here and spoil the party."

"Subtle and effective!"
After applying Brave Balm on my heart area for 3 days, I felt a subtle but distinct energy shift. Soon after that I finally quit my energy-draining 2nd job. Thank you so much! This works!
"Great product"
I am very fearful of flying so I took Brave Balm and Calm Balm on the plane with me. I rubbed Calm on my right hand and Brave on my left hand. I just kept inhaling the scents on my hands and I was able to fly without drugs!! I am a believer!

ARC The Society for the Arts, Religion and Contemporary Culture
The Society for the Arts, Religion and Contemporary Culture turns 50 this year. For half a century, ARC has been exploring the rich and complex relationship between religion and the arts in the context of the modern world. Through performances, conversations, exhibitions and other events, we have stewarded visionary approaches to the enduring elements of the human condition. Today, the broader culture is well on its way to absorbing many of these insights. A virtual riot of activity and interest churns just below the surface, with dozens of organizations, academic programs, projects, events, individuals, blogs, etc., exploring the interface between art and religion.
Much has changed in the half century since ARC inaugurated this interdisciplinary field. The endurance and flourishing of the field is a testament to its poetic utility. No longer considered an intellectual and artistic backwater, the space between religion and the arts engages issues which remain central to so many of the core concerns of our own time. The role of language in human experience, the role of sexuality, the relationship between the individual and the community; these issues are as important now as ever. Because the act of questioning has religious dimensions; because faith is enriched and leavened by irony, ARC and the field it fostered endures. Because the arts are lost without community; because the creative impulse binds us intimately with the cosmos, the work of the Society continues. Because learning to talk with one another across widely divergent, passionately held views on what is good, what is true, and what is beautiful, makes us more human, we celebrate our past, and look forward to a rich and promising future.
On Nov 11th and 12th, we will hold a grand celebration at Saint Peter's Lutheran Church in NYC. This is a location whose rich history parallels and intersects that of ARC. It is the home of the original Jazz Vespers, of the Louise Nevelson chapel, the de Kooning altar-screen. Join us to celebrate our golden anniversary with performance and conversation in a historic setting. For the full program, please click here.
In addition, to commemorate our 50th anniversary, our recent technology projects, and the 100th birthday of Marshall McLuhan, we will be sharing some reflections on the topic of media technology. Over the course of 2009 and 2010, SARCC hosted a series of conversations exploring the influence of digital technology on the arts and religion. In the next months, we will be sharing excerpts from our concluding reflections on those conversations. Keep an eye out for them.
Join us in exploring the ways we find and make meaning. To contribute or become a member, write firstname.lastname@example.com.
See full program and registration for the November events to celebrate our 50th anniversary
For further information see our Facebook Page.
We will also be announcing an awards program for those with outstanding projects, written or performed, that address this topic. If you are interested in joining this timely conversation or hearing more about the awards program, please email, or sign up on Facebook.
More about ARC including membership information and news about our recently published book: The ARC Story
From time to time the Board of Directors elects as Fellows individuals it identifies as having made a distinguished contribution to their respective fields. The list of Fellows elected over a period of nearly four decades thus exemplifies what the Society understands as the necessary and vital connections between art, religion and culture. ARC Fellows

Sci fi/Fantasy image by
Jenny StricklandA request by an old friend, Danelia. If that Android 18 picture isn't rejected, then you can feel free to link these two together, as this pic is about as old as that one. Sailor Luna was another character that added to the mess we all made. #18 refered to Luna as ' lil sis ', strangly enough. We had the most screwed up families in this RP. It as great. This image was huge, my poor scanner couldn't take all of it....so you can prolly' tell where I pieced the picture together by Microsoft Paint since I didn't have a cool editing program yet. She says she likes it a lot, but I dunno. I think her version was much better and more accurate. o__o Oh well... I haven't talked to Danelia in ages any way... Where are you SM/DBZ RP'ers anyway?! People of SM/DBZ, SS, and DR, unite! ...o_O

Geography: A different view: a manifesto by the GA- a powerful tool for reaffirming geography's potential in the curriculum or another sexy gimmick by the GA? Debbie Moss
To what extent does the GA manifesto
' a different view' present a different view of geography to your experience of the subject? What are the potential challenges in your view in ensuring that the manifesto is successful in realising its vision?
Eight families of images (themes):
Energy flows Vanishing points Producers and consumers Moving stories Running free To the ends of the earth Between heaven and earth Things aren't always what they seem
Seven sections: Geography: a curriculum resource par excellence
Thinking geographically Living Geography Geography and young people Investigating and exploring geography Geography and the 'real world' Curriculum making with geogaphy
What and why? ..a statement of beliefs and priorities
..a case for geography in education ..affirmation of geography's place in curriculum ..engaging in conversation about the earth ..designed for use in any context, where geography needs to be explained, encouraged or promoted
Areas used to support case for a powerful tool
PGCE Creativity Day PGCE Primary school placements Work with Secondary mentors PGCE M level assignment Interview tasks 2009/10 Cross-curricular fieldwork with English ATs Undergraduate Education Studies session on Reflective teaching and Critical pedagogy module Developing geography's place in Holocaust education
Creativity day!

14 survey responses 80-800 10 Geog co-ordinators, 1HT as co-ordinator, 3 no-co-ordinator 2 +ve, 4 –ve, 4? attitudes towards Geo'y as subject 1/14 heard of ADV, even then only by title 8 expressed interest, 1 mixed views, 5 not really interested Most interest expressed by head teachers 2 ATs able to make use of resources in PS that week
Work with secondary Geography mentors
13 schools Size Integrated year 7 through to separate subjects All but one knew about ADV All but two enthusiastic 1 knew only about images not content of manifesto 2 already felt their department had/is already developed ADV approach to curriculum therefore hadn't needed to focus on manifesto in department 2 mentors more excited by GA Toolkits 7/13 ATs used resources in school already 1 mentor keen to incorporate resources/approaches into new SoW for new year 7 curriculum in September
M level assignment Module 1 assignment: Subject Pedagogy 1 (Subject Identity; Level 3 / 4 (M)) To what extent is the manifesto 'A different view' launched by the Geographical Association presenting a different view of Geography? Evaluate its potential impact/success in schools.
Cross-curricular fieldwork with English ATs
Reflective teaching: Critical and reflective approaches to teaching in secondary education
'Lost in Space: Curriculum development and change in Geography' -post modernity and reflection in geographical education -teachers as change agents
.........can it support? ..a statement of beliefs and priorities
..a case for geography in education ..affirmation of its place in curriculum ..designed for use in any context, where geography needs to be explained, encouraged or promoted ....engaging in conversation about the earth
another sexy gimmick by the GA?..... potentially could be just that......but...

The Cassini spacecraft captured this closeup image of Helene on June 18, 2011. Helene is a small satellite of Saturn about 20 miles across. Helene is a coorbital satellite, which means that it shares an orbit with the much larger satellite Dione that is ~30 times larger and ~30,000 times more massive. Helene resides at Dione's L4 Lagrange point, which is a stable niche in Dione's orbit that leads that satellite by 60 degrees. The other stable niche is of course the L5 Lagrange point that trails Dione by 60 degrees. The orbit of a coorbital satellite is analogous to the Trojan asteroids that lead or trail Jupiter by 60 degrees in its orbit about the Sun.
No one knows how a coorbital satellite like Helene came to reside in such a special orbit. But it is conceivable that a coorbital satellite is debris that was excavated when the larger satellite Dione was stuck by a comet long ago. If this scenario is correct, then a lucky fraction of that debris managed to find and settle into one or both Lagrange points where it could have reassembled into a small coorbital satellite like Helene.
To see more images of Helene, as well as the rest of the Saturnian system, visit Cassini's CICLOPS website.

What's the Future for Mainstream Media in a Fake News Age?
With mainstream media under unprecedented fire from the new US administration, large well-established news organizations should focus on promoting 09/03/2017 New York
With mainstream media under unprecedented fire from the new US administration, large well-established news organizations should focus on promoting
With mainstream media under unprecedented fire from the new US administration, large well-established news organizations should focus on promoting compelling storytelling on digital platforms, reaching out to millennials, expanding global reach and rooting out the truth in a fake news age.
NBC Chairman Andrew Lack came to IESE New York this week to discuss the trends and challenges that we can expect in the media sector moving forward.
Digital Dominates, but Storytelling Persists
Digital news platforms – in particular, mobile platforms – are attracting larger audiences than any broadcast, cable or print news form by ten- and twentyfold. "These platforms are robust," Lack said. "And they are in many ways dominating our thinking for many of our audiences."
That is not to say, however, that journalistic storytelling has become any less important. Video dominates the digital strategy at NBC because video is its core competency. But getting consumers to click on a video requires framing it with the right headline and an adequately compelling narrative – however brief that narrative may be.
"I have no business in video in the digital world, unless I have great storytellers," Lack said.
Lack began his career in television advertisements, an experience he says provided him with the transferrable skill of getting someone's attention in 30 seconds or less. Journalism today relies as much as ever on this type of storytelling.
"We want our audiences to have a takeaway," Lack said.
The journalistic goal remains to create something that not only will engage an audience, but that also will take them through something that you believe to be worth their time.
Reaching a Millennial Audience
With digitalization comes a crucial generational gap. Marketing news to millennials, news organizations have learned, requires a different approach.
NBC, under Lack's direction, recently invested $500 million in Snapchat, a millennial-driven social media app that allows users to share short, disappearing photos and videos with friends.
"I am interested in how we communicate with this generation, who are growing up in a world so different from ours, and who are getting information from so many different places than [my generation] did," Lack said.
This partnership represents a step toward integrating NBC's news content into a platform that millennials are already using to connect with the world of information.
Globalization Is Key
In addition to diversifying its form, news in the digital age must also globalize its influence.
"Particularly in this global new world order, in which digital has driven globalization in ways we couldn't have contemplated 20 years ago, we at NBC news are on the hunt to be as strong and competitive internationally as we have been domestically."
Internationally, Lack says, we have just begun to assemble an infrastructure that is responsive to the issues of this new world order. NBC looks toward a collaboration with Euronews, which Lack hopes will allow the network to expand its audience and to become a truly global news organization.
The Danger of Fake News
Added to the consequences of digitalization are the consequences of the 2016 presidential election cycle for the media sector.
"Fake news is a serious issue," Lack said. While variations of fake news have existed for decades in the form of tabloids and sensationalist news stories, the problem is multiplied in today's digital age, where news sources must be continually called into question.
Audiences now are going to need to find their way through this thicket of information, deciding who to trust and where to get their news.
"As it relates to this administration, we are not an opposition party and we are not in a competition with this administration," Lack says. Throughout history, news media organizations have been challenged and questioned – sometimes, deservedly so.
While Lack sees this administration's hyper attention to fake news as a distraction mechanism, he is optimistic about the ability of news organizations to remain focused on the issues that matter.
"This administration has us more focused on temperament than we expected. That said, go chase a good story, and do the best you can."
Moving Forward
What to do in a media landscape flooded with fake news? Lack suggests consulting three or four separate news sources for any given story. Reading multiple takes on the same story allows readers to identify the filters that each source applies in their storytelling, and to separate those filters from plain facts.
"News is hard," Lack said. "It requires, in a democracy, working at it a little bit."
Moving forward, we continue the quest for a reliable community of journalism and for mobile-first news content that is relevant on new millennial platforms.
"We have our work cut out for us," Lack said. "But I am optimistic about where it's going to end."
