BSM Drama Team to present Easter play
PLAINVIEW – The Drama Team of Wayland Baptist University's Baptist Student Ministries will present the play "This Man Jesus" in recognition of Passion Week, celebrated at Wayland the week of Good Friday.
The play will be performed on Tuesday, March 22, at 7 p.m. at the Student Ministry Activity Center, located at 810 Utica, in the auditorium. The production will then be repeated on Wednesday, March 23, at 11 a.m. during the university's weekly chapel service held in Harral Auditorium. The public is invited to both performances and no admission will be charged.
According to Britany Lewis, WBU senior and director of the drama team, the play features 16 people from the Bible who met Jesus at some point during his life on earth. The characters range from the more well-known, such as the Roman soldier who nailed Jesus to the cross and Lazarus, the man raised from the dead, to the bystanders, including the woman with a blood disorder healed by Jesus.
Written by Cheryl Taylor, the play features the following Wayland: Josh Smith as Jesus and as Lazarus; Trae Sweatt as Pilate, Tamara Haney as the woman caught in adultery; Johnathan Jimmerson as a Roman soldier; Matt McCabe as the soldier who nailed Jesus to the cross; Jeff Raines as Simon of Cyrene and as Peter; Tia Maxwell as Mary, the mother of Jesus; Bekah Jackson as the woman with the blood disorder; Marci Street as Martha; Katie Trimble as Mary; Amber Sutton as Abigail; Ariel Smeaton as Mary Magdalene; Brittany Watson as Salome; Sarah Medley as Mary, the mother of James.
In addition to the play, the Tuesday evening performance will include vocal music specials by cast members Sweatt, Smeaton, Watson and Sutton as well as Crystal Holloway. A mime presentation will be included, along with the reading of the names of God.
According to Lewis, who serves on the BSM Leadership Team, the production is a change from the Passion Week schedule of years past.
"We really wanted to do something with our drama team, and [BSM Director Donnie Brown] and I talked about doing a production this week instead of having a special speaker come in," she said. "We found a great script and everything else just came together."
Lewis said she hopes the play or similar productions become an annual tradition for Passion Week. The remainder of the week's activities include the Wayland worship service on Monday evenings, Plumbline, also held in the Student Ministry Center at 8:30 p.m. The public is invited to share in all events.

Erik Walden remained confident about his future in the NFL after he got cut, figuring his next chance would come as a special teams contributor.
Even he didn't imagine making big plays on defense to help send the Green Bay Packers to the playoffs.
After being released by Miami on Sept. 28, Walden was at home working out when he got a call from Packers assistant director of pro personnel Eliot Wolf -- the son of former Packers general manager Ron Wolf -- telling him the injury-riddled Packers wanted to give him a chance to play in Green Bay.
"He said, 'Look, this is the situation, it's an incredible opportunity,' so my eyes lit up," Walden said. "I'm just trying to cash in and contribute, kind of make a name for myself. But at the same time, the bigger picture is helping us get to where we want to be, get these wins and get this train rolling." Walden signed Oct. 27 and was pressed into action only four days later, making his Packers debut against the New York Jets. The linebacker saved his best performance for Sunday, with two sacks and 11 total tackles as the Packers clinched a playoff berth with a 10-3 victory over the Chicago Bears.
Going into a playoff game at Philadelphia on Sunday, Walden might be called on again for a team that is playing strong defense despite dealing with injuries all season.
"He did it all," cornerback Charles Woodson said. "I think he impressed a lot of people around here (Sunday). When you play at that high of a level, now we expect you to do it all the time. So we look for big things from him coming into these playoffs."
The Packers have 15 players on injured reserve, including three defensive starters, and have had to make up for prolonged absences by several other significant players throughout the year.
Walden is one of four players to start at right outside linebacker for the Packers this season.
"It's just nice to have someone in there to make some plays and take a little heat off me," linebacker Clay Matthews said. "I told him he's doing a fantastic job. He's been working his butt off since he got here. It's not easy to come in here halfway through the year. Now he's starting for a playoff team and making sacks, making plays. More power to him."
Safety Charlie Peprah said the Packers won't get anywhere without their role players.
"It's not going to be every game that Clay Matthews is going to do his thing," Peprah said. "It's not going to be every game Charles Woodson is going to do his thing or whatever. But if you're out there, we're going to need you to step up. And thank goodness he stepped up and came up big for us. He's playing good ball."
Walden was taken out of Middle Tennessee State by Dallas in the sixth round of the 2008 draft and had played for Kansas City and Miami. He was cut by the Dolphins in September, but remembered something Bill Parcells told him.
"I was working out, trying to stay in shape and spending time with my son," Walden said. "I was just waiting. The advice I got from Parcells (was), if you can play special teams, you'll always have a job in this league. So I never doubted I'd get back on. It was just a matter of when and it being the right fit."
It's too soon to say what Walden's future might be in Green Bay, but coaches like what they see so far.
"I can't say enough about the young man and the way he's performed, the way he's worked," head coach Mike McCarthy said. "The extra hours that you see him and (outside linebackers coach) Kevin Greene put in throughout the evenings upon his arrival here. We've done a very good job getting players ready to play in a short period of time. Our team is formed, this is who we are and we head into the playoffs."

Nuggets' Lawson out with heel injury
Denver, CO – A plantar fascia tear in his right heel will keep Denver Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson out for the team's contest against the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.
After originally suffering the injury on March 19 against Oklahoma City, the Nuggets scoring and assist leader sat out the next three games, but returned on Wednesday in the team's loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
He played just 20 minutes, scoring two points on 1-for-7 shooting.
Lawson will not require surgery and will continue to receive treatment. He is officially listed as day-to-day. In his fourth-year out of North Carolina, Lawson is posting career highs of 16.7 points and 6.9 assists.
Veteran guard Andre Miller will take Lawson's place in the starting lineup.

Elections with open primaries no longer a voter's dream
By Michael Smerconish
http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | (MCT) Fed up with a lack of competition in "safe" legislative districts, California voters ditched the state's conventional primary system two years ago and implemented the "Top Two Open Primary."
The initiative was called Proposition 14. Here's how it works: Candidates choose whether to associate themselves with a particular party or run unaffiliated. All candidates are then listed on the same ballot, and every voter, regardless of party affiliation (or lack thereof), is eligible to vote in the primary. The top two vote-getters again, regardless of party then advance to the general election.
How's it going so far?
Quite well, according to Dan Howle, chairman of the Independent Voter Project, author of the open-primary measure.
"We've pretty much accomplished everything that we wanted to do," he told me. "We had three primary objectives: One was to give every voter the right to vote for any candidate they choose, and the second was to give any voter equal access to the ballot. Political parties in California had an advantage prior to Prop 14, and so the third thing was ... to make elections competitive, and we've really done that."
The ballot measure passed with the support of then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"I was sick and tired of Republicans and Democrats getting stuck in their own ideologies and being so far apart that they were unable to meet in the middle," he told me. "I promised the people of California that I would fight for them. It took years to do, due to the great amount of resistance from both parties, but we eventually won and now both systems are in place, and I think it's truly terrific."
When I asked Howle to cite evidence of success, he pointed to the 15th and 30th Congressional Districts.
The 30th is in the San Fernando Valley, where, in 2012, Congressmen Howard Berman and Brad Sherman faced each other after redistricting. Because of Top Two, these two liberal Democrats vied in the general election for a seat gerrymandered for a Democrat. Because they had to face the electorate at large, and not just fellow Democrats in a party primary, according to Howle, each was forced to "spend a great deal of time, money, and effort touting their ability to work with Republicans. They had to reach out to Republicans in order to be competitive, and that's what we were trying to do when we wrote the Top Two Open Primary: Make politicians accountable to everybody in their districts."
Pete Stark was a political casualty in the San Francisco area's 15th District as a result of an open primary. Stark had served in Congress for 40 years, until he faced Eric Swalwell, a 36-year-old prosecutor. These two Democrats were the top two in the general election, and Swalwell won by appealing to a broader range of voters.
"Stark hadn't had a competitive election in 30 years, and he was defeated by a young Democrat because this Democrat appealed to the broad range of voters in that district and had the opportunity to compete," Howle told me. "Prior to the Top Two Open Primary, 98 percent of all elections in California were decided in the primary election, and there were virtually no competitive elections."
Thus far, it sounds like the antidote to the problem Nate Silver has written about in the FiveThirtyEight blog: In 1992, there were 103 competitive congressional districts in the country; today there are 35. If you are nominated by the dominant political party in one of those districts, you are virtually assured of being elected because of the way the lines have been drawn.
California is addressing gerrymandering, too. The Golden State has sought to remove politicians from the redistricting process with the creation of the Citizens Redistricting Commission, another initiative created on Schwarzenegger's watch.
"When we did redistricting reform we were told right off the top from both parties not to go there," he told me. "Both Democrats and Republicans said they would attack me and do everything they could to not change gerrymandering. ... (T)hey insisted I would be unable to undo it. Gerrymandering has been around for entirely too long, and that's the way politicians fix the elections. It's how Democrats and Republicans get together and draw the district lines so they maintain safe seats."
He continued: "What I insisted on doing is having ordinary folks that are smart draw the district lines and take the power away from the politicians. And you know what? They spent millions and millions of dollars against it and we lost five times. But we were relentless. We never gave up and we took the risk again, and on the sixth time, thanks to our endurance and ability to stay in office, we raised enough money and won. ... It will not change everything 100 percent; however, it will definitely make a difference. It will make it more difficult for politicians to keep the seats that they previously were locked into."
Howle agrees. He says the dual effects of the open primary and redistricting commission represent a significant attempt to change the status quo.
"I want to emphasize that we were not and are not anti-political party," he told me. "There is a place for political parties in this process. What we were all about is voters' rights. We didn't set out to try to elect more moderate candidates; we didn't set out to take on the political parties. The premise was very simple: Every voter ought to have the chance to vote for any candidate they choose. It's that simple."
California down. Forty-nine to go.

The Fall 2014 issue of Ploughshares, edited by Percival Everett. Ploughshares, a journal of new writing, is guest-edited serially by prominent writers who explore different personal visions, aesthetics, and literary circles.
Acclaimed novelist and short-story writer Percival Everett (Erasure, I Am Not Sidney Poitier) guest-edits this all-fiction issue. As Everett writes in his introduction, the stories "range from so-called mimetic to so-called meta. I do not like such labels and I hope to undermine their use by putting these fine works together." Authors experiment with everything from extensive footnotes to shifting points of view, and narratives run from a husband who can't stop crying (Nick Arvin's "The Crying Man") to a super-sophisticated domestic robot learning the ways of a Japanese family ("I, Kitty," by Karen Tei Yamashita). Featuring stories by Aimee Bender, Richard Bausch, and Edith Pearlman, this issue is an illustration of the adventurousness and variety of the short story in English today.
The issue also features Jay Baron Nicorvo's Plan B essay about surfing, and an appreciation of the early work of the poet Robert Duncan.

Vic tech groups play Japan's big league
The head office of video game giant Nintendo in the Japanese city of Kyoto couldn't be better hidden. In a nondescript modern six-storey building with no signage or promotion, everything is designed to protect the intellectual property hidden within those walls. Security is strict and visitors are not encouraged.
However, last month Nintendo made an exception to that rule. It opened its doors to a delegation of the ICT (information and communication technology) industry from Victoria. Nintendo welcomed the delegation because some research indicated that, to its surprise, the company was already buying a fair amount of games software from different creators in Victoria for loading onto its Game Boy and Game Cube hardware.
In effect, Nintendo was embracing the concept that Victoria represented a hub for companies creating computer games software, and it wanted to learn more about what was happening thousands of kilometres from its home base.
Tom Crago is the chief executive of Tantalus Interactive, an emerging games producer based in South Melbourne, who has already sold one game - Top Gear Rally - to Nintendo. Tantalus exports 75 per cent of its nearly $2 million in annual turnover, and has other clients in America and Europe.
"Nintendo is viewed by everyone in the games industry as like a mecca," he said. "We had a really good exchange with them and they recognised that small companies based in Melbourne can produce something innovative."
Games producers were just one of the industry sectors represented in the ICT delegation, which included representatives from e-learning, intelligent transport systems, radio frequency identification, business software and general ICT R&D.
A total of 34 organisations and 50 people went as part of the mission, which was led by the Minister for Information and Communication Technology, Marsha Thomson.
Already one deal has been clinched following the visit. South Melbourne-based Etech Group, which produces interactive e-learning software for use in schools and universities, signed a partnership agreement with Japanese broadband provider Data Pacific and Waseda University in Tokyo.
Etech Group is fast gaining a reputation as a successful exporter, already selling its Studywiz software into Europe and the US. Apple Computers has just signed an agreement to be a reseller of Studywiz around the globe and a week ago reached sales agreements with five US education departments in cities including Detroit and San Diego
Geoff Elwood, chief executive of Etech Group, says the visit to Japan reminded him that his technology could compete anywhere in the world.
"We are already talking with Data Pacific about introducing Studywiz into five or six Japanese schools as a test case," he said.
For some companies in the delegation, the visit to Japan was more about establishing contacts and looking to explore export opportunities in the coming years.
Box Hill Institute represented vocational and higher educations services in Victoria in the delegation. Surprisingly, it found tertiary institutions in Japan are facing similar challenges in how they embrace e-learning technology to improve educational services.
Darrell Cain, the deputy chief executive of Box Hill Institute, says since the delegation returned, a number of other members have contacted him to organise working together to refine products and ideas to help in the export of e-learning material to Japan and other markets.
Box Hill Institute now generates about 40 per cent of its income from commercial activities - which is high by university standards in Australia - including attracting foreign students. The institute used the delegation's visits to establish links with Japanese learning institutions to facilitate better student transfers between the two countries.
To assist the delegation, the companies participating did have a number of Japanese "big brothers" to help them open doors. These included NEC, which helped sponsor the trip.
NEC Business Solutions managing director Riaki Tanaka said Japan already had strong links with Victoria, with companies such as NEC and Hitachi having their head offices and research and development centres in Melbourne.
"NEC's Melbourne headquarters already plays a key role in the development of technology used by NEC all over the world," Mr Tanaka said.
"For instance, we are developing the next generation broadband technology in Melbourne.
"In Melbourne, NEC Business Solutions work with a lot of local partners, who help us in either research and development or the implementation of new products.
We are always impressed with the quality of the work offered by local Melbourne ICT companies and we see other opportunities for these small, but innovative organisations to work more closely with other companies based in Japan."
Ms Thomson said the outcomes of the delegation had already outstripped expectations, with not only the early commercial success shown by the Etech Group but also other members of the delegation being involved in confidential follow-up negotiations.
"What the trip achieved was to create an atmosphere of confidence that Victorian-based ICT companies can mix it with some of Japan's top corporations," she said.
"The amount of interest we had from our Japanese hosts illustrated that what they were presenting was world class.
"The upbeat feel for the whole delegation showed they had gained something enormously out of the trip. Just have a look at the quality of companies we visited, including Toyota, Sony, NEC, Fuji Xerox, Hitachi, Nintendo and many more.
"Victorians should be proud of these and other companies who are making the effort to export.
"The ICT sector cannot afford to be insular. We've got a great pool of talent and we think that our innovation and cost structure makes us competitive anywhere in the world.
"We all know the Japanese are very polite but humble people. But the amount of positive feedback we've had from companies we've visited has gone above and beyond what is being polite. They are very enthusiastic about what's going on in Victoria."
Last year, Ms Thomson led a delegation of ICT companies to India, which resulted in a number of export deals.
The next country being targeted for a delegation visit, possibly next year, is China.
"My department is very closely monitoring what is happening in China and where Victorian companies can establish links on the ground," she said.

Tethered shooting file renaming problem in LR3 from a Canon 5D
April 15, 2011, 06:05:05 AM »
This forum seems to have gone to sleep, and this might actually be better in the LR forum, but I will try here first.
I have run into a problem renaming files on import while shooting tethered: Canon 5D, LR 3, Mac OSX 10.6.
I want to use the <filename number suffix> icon to capture the file number sequence from the 5D, which I use in continuous mode. After extensive testing I cannot find a way to make this work, I just get a sequence number, one digit instead of 4, but no way can I get the original file sequence number.
On the other hand, when importing the same files from card, all is well.
I have contacted both Adobe and Canon. Canon says they know of no problem that would cause this. Adobe has had over a week to study the problem but has provided no help at all.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions lurking out there?
I did contact Martin Evening who tried the same thing on his Canon 1Ds Mk3, and that worked perfectly.
I am stuck. Canon suggested I use EOS Utility to do the import, but that is not right for my workflow.

I agree with Canon. I shoot tethered into Lightroom but prefer using EOS Utility to make the connection. I shoot primarily with a 5dII now... but still have a 5D though its used much less now.
I'm not sure how I see that the EOS Utility changes the workflow in a significant way. It gives you more control over the camera and more reliable constant camera connections in heavy shooting situations (granted I haven't tried Lightrooms native tethering again since it's early inception... maybe it's improved). With EOS Utility you shoot into specific folder that is set as Lightoom's "watched" folder. When Lightroom detects a new image it's immediately imported as per your instructions in Auto Import setup. You tell it what folder to go into, what metadata to add, what initial develop settings to apply and how to rename. If you shoot into Loupe View each new frame is displayed as the active image. The extra import step adds maybe two seconds before the image pops up on screen versus shooting into Bridge or the Canon software that doesn't need to move the file before display. How is any of this functionally different to letting Lightroom control the tether... as far as workflow goes?
I can't recall the exact setting... don't have camera and software in front of me... but what worked best was to tell EOS Utility to custom name the files yymmdd-####(my usual naming pattern). The problem is that the #### part will start over at one each time without the right setting. There's no way to get it to match what the camera is doing with cards natively. However if you choose the proper setting it will remember where it left off at the last session and continue on with the next (won't reset to 1 again after each shoot). Tethered shooting gives me one sequence of image numbers. Shooting to cards gives me a different one. That hasn't proved to be any sort of problem for me. You can make the sequence number four digits long.

Thank you for the reply. I think LightRoom 3 has improved the import functions, and particularly the tethered shooting imports, significantly. I in fact have in that past used the EOS Utility but found that I always had problems when the camera timed out between shots. EOS Utility would shut off and some sort of reboot would have to take place, which was a huge disruption. I will try it again for a fair comparison. The LR tethered import works very well in all regards except this one. It does not give any control over the camera functions but for my purposes that has not been an issue.

PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. — In the still of a courtroom that had been rendered sleepy by the crinkling of paper bags as exhibit after exhibit was painstakingly entered into evidence, the voice of Cody Legebokoff suddenly rang out.
On the witness stand — and these keen young Mounties ignore the chair and actually do stand — was Const. Kanwalprit (K.P.) Sidhu.
Sidhu actually arrested Legebokoff for murder soon after midnight on Nov. 28, 2010.
As he arrested Legebokoff, and read him his rights and gave him the standard cautions, Sidhu had switched on his tape recorder and now that tape was being played.
"I did not murder anybody," Legebokoff, who is alleged to be Canada's youngest serial killer, snapped.
He added, and here he was speaking with the particular clarity and slowness that people use when addressing those they consider a bit dim, "Found! Found it."
By it, of course, he meant the body of 15-year-old Loren Leslie.
Minutes earlier, a conservation officer dispatched to follow Legebokoff's tire tracks — he had roared onto a lonely highway in northern British Columbia from an old logging road and to the attention of Const. Aaron Kehler — had updated constables Sidhu and Kehler on the radio that "it was a worst-case scenario and you should contact your supervisor."
Earlier still, Legebokoff had told the officers he had been hunting with a buddy, who shot a deer but only injured it, and that they had found it and clubbed the animal to death — and that, Legebokoff said, was why he had blood on his legs, shoes and chin.
But now the conservation officer had reported in, and Sidhu immediately understood his guarded transmission: "I interpreted that he had found a body, and that it wasn't a deer."
The conservation officer hasn't testified yet, but B.C. Supreme Court Justice Glen Parrett and the jurors have been told he followed the tracks of Legebokoff's truck, then the footprints leading from it into the bush, and there made the grim discovery of Leslie's body in the snow, her bright blond hair matted with blood.
It was this discovery and Legebokoff's arrest in her death that led to the further murder charges he faces.
He is accused in the slayings of three adult women — Jill Stuchenko and Cynthia Maas, both 35, and Natasha Montgomery, 23. He is pleading not guilty to all four charges of first-degree murder.
When Sidhu first told Legebokoff he was under arrest for Leslie's murder, the young man — he was then all of 20 — told him, "I didn't tell you the truth (before)."
Sidhu told him to not to say anything — he hadn't been cautioned yet — but Legebokoff persisted.
"I went there," he said, "and found her." His emphasis was on "found."
As the officer repeatedly told him he had the right to counsel, and that a lawyer would be provided free of charge if he didn't have his own, Legebokoff kept saying, "I wanna call my dad."
When Sidhu asked if he understood his rights, Legebokoff replied, "Yeah. I want to call my dad, 'cause I didn't do this."
"I seen it, yes," he said.
"I want to call my dad," he said again.
"Is your dad a lawyer?" Sidhu asked, and Legebokoff kept talking over him, "because I didn't do this.
"I don't know why I'm f — king in here," he said furiously, and then added the line that may become notorious: "I did not murder anybody. Found! Found it."
Finally, Legebokoff agreed he wanted a lawyer, but then quickly issued a couple of demands.
"I want a cigarette out of my truck," he said. "I wanna call my dad."
"Drive down a road," he said wonderingly, as if to himself, "and found this. It's f—ked up."
Sidhu was then given the job of driving Legebokoff to the RCMP detachment in Vanderhoof, which is about halfway between Fort St. James, Legebokoff's hometown, and Prince George, where he was working and living at the time. The area is remote, about 780 kilometres north of Vancouver.
En route, Sidhu said, Legebokoff made three requests: He wanted a smoke; he wanted a pee break; and he wanted his cellphone back.
At the detachment, the police made efforts to reach his family and he was taken into a phone room to speak to a lawyer before being placed in a cell.
Pictures taken of him that chilly early-winter's night show a bulky young man, wearing a black long-sleeved T-shirt, black-and-white windowpane-check shorts and black-grey-white running shoes.
Visible even in the photos, which were taken at the side of the dark highway or in a police vehicle, was what appears to be blood — as well as scratches — on Legebokoff's left arm and legs, and on one of his shoes. His hands were rough and calloused, and in places, reddish.
Stuchenko's body was the first to be found — in a city park in October 2009.
Legebokoff was then 19.

With the football coaching carousel in full swing, one of Miami's own is reportedly checking out the prospect of going for a ride.
The Philadephia Inquirer, OwlScoop.com (Rivals) and CBSSports.com reported (citing unnamed sources) that Miami Hurricanes defensive coordinator Mark D'Onofrio already interviewed for the head-coaching vacancy left by Steve Addazio.
Addazio departed Philadelphia last Tuesday to become head coach of Boston College.
D'Onofrio, UM's defensive coordinator and assistant head coach, was the Temple defensive coordinator from 2006-2010, when his close friend Golden (and former Penn State teammate) was head coach. D'Onofrio was supposedly offered the head-coaching job that Golden vacated to come to Miami. But D'Onofrio chose to accompany Golden.
It has been a rough year for D'Onofrio, whose defense ranks among the worst nationally in almost every category: 117th in total defense (of 120 teams ranked in the Football Bowl Subdivision), 113th in rushing defense, 82nd in scoring defense, 101st in pass defense, 112th in sacks, 102nd in tackles for loss.
I looked up UM's defensive stats from 2011, D'Onofrio's first season at Miami, and here's how the Canes ranked: 45th in total defense, 68th in rushing defense, 21st in scoring defense, 28th in pass defense, 56th in sacks, 50th in tackles for loss.
Last year Miami finished 6-6; This season, 7-5.
Former Hurricane/Hurricanes assistant coach Mario Cristobal, recently fired by FIU, also interviewed for the head-coaching job at Temple, Miami Herald FIU beat writer David Neal reported, citing sources.
The Inquirer listed New York Giants offensive line coach Matt Ruhle, Temple defensive coordinator Chuck Heater and Ohio State receivers coach Stan Drayton as others who interviewed.
CBSSports.com and OwlScoop reported that Notre Dame defensive coordinator Bob Diaco was also scheduled to interview for the Temple job, with the Inquirer reporting that Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Todd Bowles was set to interview Monday night.
So, how would you feel if D'Onofrio left and the door opened for a new UM defensive coordinator? Either way, the pressure is big-time for this defense to start going in the right direction. With Stephen Morris and UM's offense poised for a bright future, they need the defense to hold its own.
Running back/return specialist Duke Johnson was named a second-team Freshman All-America by CollegeFootballNews.com. Also named a second-teamer: safety Deon Bush.
Duke Johnson and linebacker Eddie Johnson were named to the CBSSports.com All-Freshman Team.
Johnson, a second-team Walter Camp All-America, is the ACC Rookie of the Year after amassing 2,060 all-purpose yards and 13 touchdowns and rushing for a UM freshman-record 947 yards.
Bush played in 10 games, starting six. He had 34 tackles, three pass breakups and three forced fumbles.
Eddie Johnson had 59 tackles and a team-leading 7.5 tackles-for-loss in 10 games, with eight starts. He finished second in ACC Defensive Player of the Year voting.
Canesport.com and InsidetheU.com have reported that 6-5, 265-pound DL/OL Hunter Knighton of the Hun School, in Princeton, committed tonight to play football at Miami.
Knighton, rated as a three-star player, told CaneSport that UM recruited him as an offensive lineman, but that "if things don't work out they said I can definitely play defense.''
He said he is trying to enroll early, so he could participate in spring practice.

CHL Game Night 1/18: The Chris Lawrence Show
Chris Lawrence had 2 goals and an assist Thursday night to lead the Mississauga IceDogs to a 5-1 road win over Toronto St. Mike's. Lawrence was also plus-2 and had 6 PIM. One of his goals was the game winner and the other was a power play marker. Anyone who had him in their stat-category-based OHL fantasy hockey league is probably patting themselves on the back for that performance. Lawrence was named the game's first star.
"The coaches have emphasized that I've got to drive the net more," Lawrence told the Mississauga News. "And if you work hard, the goals will come."
"When he's going to the net as hard as he did tonight, not too many people can handle him at this level," Coach Mike Kelly said of Lawrence's performance.
Note: This was Mississauga's last game in the old Toronto rink, St. Michael's College Arena, which has seen the likes of Red Kelly, Tim Horton, and Frank Mahovlich come through on their way to the pros. The Mississauga News reports the current Toronto club will likely play in Mississauga's Hershey Centre next year after the IceDogs move to Niagara Falls.

After anal sex and obtaining a "Poop noodle" (getting a chunk of poop stuck in your penis hole), you then "dock" (The act of placing the head of ones penis inside the foreskin of another's penis) with another man and shoot your poop noodle into the penis hole of the other man.
"That 2nd guy I banged at the party last night had no idea I had just had anal sex with someone else in the closet right before I fucked him in the bathroom. As soon as we started hooking up we started to dock, but unbeknownst to him I was actually docking the space noodle! You should have seen his expression when it popped out with his cum later on all over my face! Oh well, it's classic when you're a sacktapper from dirty Jersey."

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (August 10, 2010)—Zenyatta returned to her home at Hollywood Park today after a short, but successful , road trip.
The brilliant 6-year-old daughter of Street Cry remained unbeaten, winning for the 18th time in the $300,000 Clement L. Hirsch Stakes Aug. 7 at Del Mar.
The victory was her third in a row in the Hirsch, meaning she has won two different Grade 1's in Southern California three times. On June 13, Zenyatta became the first horse to win the $250,000 Vanity Handicap at Hollywood Park thrice.
With a win that was accomplished easier than the neck margin would indicate, Zenyatta pushed her earnings to $6,254,580. The only filly or mare who has earned more racing in North America is Ouija Board. The English bred daughter of Cape Cross, who won the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf in both 2004 and 2006, retired with a bankroll of $6,334,296.
Owned by Jerry and Ann Moss and trained by John Shirreffs, Zenyatta could make one more start in Southern California before she wraps up her career by trying to defend her title in the Breeders' Cup Classic on Nov. 6 at Churchill Downs.
Zenyatta, who has won eight Grade 1's in a row, may aim for another and an opportunity to add another three peat of sorts to her resume.
Indications are she will make start No. 19 in the race that now bears her name – the $300,000 Zenyatta Stakes on Oct. 2 during the Oak Tree meet at Santa Anita. Zenyatta won the race, which is run at 1 1/16 miles, in both 2008 and 2009 when it was called the Lady's Secret Stakes.

It's not too often you'll find a wedding that achieves the sweet spot right between rustic and glamorous, but this one captured by Julie Paisley Photography associates, Christy and Sarah, certainly has! The day took place at the charming, rustic Long Hollow Gardens + Nursery, which Vintage Florals decked out in the prettiest white blooms. Add in blue Manolos, sparkly bridesmaids' gowns, and chic golden flatware to this greenhouse wedding, and you've got the perfect balance of styles...and this Pinterest-worthy celebration!
Sometimes it rains on your wedding day, but when your venue is an amazing greenhouse, the back up plan is just as beautiful. Long Hollow Gardens is the venue you want to book for a perfect rain plan. Spring weddings in Nashville are rainy, but when you have the team from Southern Social and Melissa from Vintage Florals together, a "rain plan" is not a bad thing at all. This wedding did not disappoint when it came to details. A beautiful floral arch, sprays of florals down the aisle, a palette of greenery, blush and blue, all tied together in a classic and elegant design. This is a wedding that you would want to experience over and over again. I'm sure you will find so much inspiration captured by the Julie Paisley associate team, Christy and Sarah.

Pronounced: "Broadcast-a-fy"
As for the forums - we don't have plans to roll out discussion forums on Broadcastify, but we'll continue to have the forums on RadioReference for topics all related to Live Audio Broadcasting. Support for listeners and broadcasters will be done on a one on one basis and through a knowledge-base.
Yes. No action will need to be taken by feed providers - the transition will happen automatically.
Those who are in their Web browsers and not Broadcastify premium subscribers will be limited to 2 hours of continuous listening time before they will be required to reload the page. All other clients (mobile, etc) will remain unlimited. Broadcastify Premium subscribers will have unlimited continuous listening via all mediums.
Additionally, listening to feeds on Broadcastify will always remain free to everyone.
No action will need to be taken by feed providers - the transition will happen automatically.
Yes. Feed providers will always receive a free premium subscription on Broadcastify.com, however free premium subscriptions on RadioReference.com are being discontinued for feed providers.
No. RadioReference and Broadcastify will function as two entirely separate entities after the transition, therefore we are discontinuing free premium subscriptions on RadioReference.com for live audio feed provider.
However, we will grant all active feed providers a free 90 day premium subscription on RadioReference.com when the transition occurs on Oct 15th.
We will only transition accounts that have active premium subscriptions on 10/15, and accounts belonging to feed providers. Those users will be able to immediately login to the site. Everyone else will need to reregister.
We're taking this approach because we don't want to transition 620,000 user accounts to a new service where the users potentially doesn't want to have an account created for them on that service. However, we need to honor premium subscriptions and get feed provider's accounts moved over, thus our approach outlined above.
All live audio links, players, APIs, etc currently in place will either continue to function normally, or automatically redirect to Broadcastify. I would anticipate that to remain in place through the end of the year.
All live audio integration on RadioReference.com will be removed and transitioned to Broadcastify.com. That includes the menus, nav bar, live audio pages etc.
However, we will include a link on RadioReference to each county and state page on Broadcastify to allow RadioReference users to navigate directly to audio feeds from the respective county and state pages in the RadioReference database.
There will be a lot of cross promotion between the two services, especially in the early phases of the launch.
This page will go away. We will most likely migrate current favorite page settings to Broadcastify's new favorite feeds page that we plan on implementing on Broadcastify.

The motif of decay appears several times in MacDonald's Phantastes although it often appears far less negative than it does in works of many other Victorian writers, including Charlotte Brontë, Charles Dickens, A. C. Swinburne, Max Beerbohm, and Oscar Wilde. MacDonald's narrator first mentions the word decay itself when Anodos is lying beneath the beech tree and, in his trance-like state, imagines that he "in autumn, grew sad because [he] trod on the leaves that had sheltered [him], and received their last blessing in the sweet odours of decay." Here, MacDonald construes decay as positive, associating it with the "sweet odours" that accompany autumn, rather than focusing on them as a precursor of winter and death. As in other Victorian authors' works, however, he continues to connect decay with nature and with leaves in particular. Although the odors are pleasurable, they still symbolize the death of the leaves and the only consolation is that they will return in the spring.
MacDonald speaks of decay in relation to trees and leaves in other instances throughout his work. One example is when Anodos arrives at the farmhouse and sees Fairy Land from the daughter's window. He comments:
The trees bathed their great heads in the waves of the morning, while their roots were planted deep in gloom; save where on the borders the sunshine broke against their stems, or swept in long streams through their avenues, washing with brighter hue all the leaves over which it flowed; revealing the rich brown of the decayed leaves and fallen pine-cones, and the delicate greens of the long grasses and tiny forests of moss that covered the channel over which it passed in motionless rivers of light.
Once again, MacDonald refers to decaying leaves along the forest floor, and although he terms them "brown," a bleak color of dead nature, he also uses the word "rich." This ascribes a positive idea to the decay, as the sweet smell did in the previous passage. MacDonald seems to recognize the death that decay brings, but accepts it as a part of nature and embraces the positive attributes of decay, such as the color and smell.
In another passage, however, MacDonald becomes more negative when Anodos describes, "Yet, as the clearest forest-well tastes sometimes of the bitterness of decayed leaves, so to my weary, prisoned heart, its cheerfulness had a sting of cold, and its tenderness unmanned me with the faintness of long-departed joys." He no longer portrays the leaves as having a "sweet odour," but rather a "bitterness," and the forest does not enliven him, but makes him cold. This negative shift gives the forest a much more sinister representation, creating a duality of both good and evil in the woods. Another time that MacDonald mentions decay in a negative light is when the Maid of the Alder-tree, with whom Anodos becomes enchanted, turns to her real form and Anodos describes her as "a rough representation of the human frame, only hollow, as if made of decaying bark torn from a tree." This gruesome description also sheds a sinister light on decay. By giving this enchantress, who attempts to leave Anodos at the mercy of the Alder-tree, a body of rotting bark, MacDonald portrays decay as almost monstrous, since she is.
The woman in the farmhouse reinforces the association of decay with the Maid of the Alder-tree when Anodos asks her how the maid can look so beautiful and yet act so cruelly. The woman explains, "when she finds [a man] in her power, her desire to bewitch him and gain his love . . . makes her very lovely — with a self-destructive beauty, though; for it is that which is constantly wearing her away within, till, at last, the decay will reach her face, and her whole front . . . and she be vanished for ever." This passage depicts decay as a self-destructive and consuming force that will ultimately destroy the maid, more or less equating decay to death. Finally, MacDonald uses decay to describe the crumbling of buildings, such as where Anodos relates, "some of the battlements which yet stood, had been repaired, apparently to prevent them from falling into worse decay, while the more important parts were being restored." Like Brontë's depiction of Thornfield after the fire, the excerpt portrays buildings dissolving into nature, mostly as a function of weather (or in Brontë's case, natural forces like fire) and a lack of attention. This decay, while not so harmful as that associated with the Maid of the Alder-tree, still manifests itself as a destructive force and adds another negative component to MacDonald's dual portrayal of decay.Overall, MacDonald's story looks at both the positive and negative implications of death and decay in terms of nature and people, representing them more positively than do authors writing about Victorian society. This just portrayal fits appropriately with his Fairy Land where both good and evil exist in a fairytale-like way. Although the forces of good and evil often find themselves in conflict, they result in a harmony and justice: reward for those who are good and punishment for those who are bad. Knights fight Alder-trees and maidens deceive, but everything works itself out ultimately. Moreover, while decay can destroy and kill, it can also renew and create beauty, particular in fragrance.

Wowwww, this looks delicious! see more hamburger bun recipes at tiptap.comReplyDelete
I was just searching yesterday for a whole wheat hamburger bun! These look great..the only thing I am missing is the potato flour!ReplyDelete
These look fantastic! I'm very impressed that they're 100% whole wheat. I'll be trying these sometime soon for sure :)ReplyDelete
These look delicious!ReplyDelete
I nominated you on my blog for the Versatile Blogger award :) You can read about it on my blog if you so choose. http://milk-and.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/beef-and-bean-sausage-rolls.html
Beautiful buns! pinned :-)ReplyDelete
I want to make these for a party but would like to make them ahead of time. How long do they keep? Can I freeze them?ReplyDelete
Wrapped well, they can be kept at room temperature for up to 3 days. To freeze, you can individually wrap them in plastic wrap and place them inside a freezer safe bag or container. Thaw at room temperature before using.ReplyDelete
I made these today and they were amazing! I usually make a light whole wheat bun but this will now be my go to burger bun! They were surprisingly moist! When making the dough I was worried about using too much flour so my dough was quite sticky when I put it for the first rising (not sure if that is how it is supposed to be) but in the end the results were fabulous..Thank you!!!!!ReplyDelete
I was curious if it was the potato flour or orange juice that help contribute to how moist they were????Replies
The potato flour does retain more moisture than regular flour. It makes for a soft and moist texture. The orange juice brings out the nutty sweetness of the whole wheat. Glad you enjoyed the recipe.Delete
- charlotteSeptember 29, 2012
I would like to try your recipe today but my husband doesn't like honey (at all!). Do you think I could use sugar and water instead? Or would you suggest something else?ReplyDeleteReplies
You can't taste the honey flavor, but you can substitute granulated sugar.Delete
- charlotteOctober 01, 2012
Score! I made those hamburger buns with 2 Tsp sugar instead of honey, and they were perfect! Soft and tasty... Really perfect. Thanks again for all these terrific recipes you share (I'm hoping, one day, you'll post a great english muffins recipe...)Delete
Good to hear. As for the english muffin recipe, it is in the works☺.Delete
- charlotteOctober 02, 2012
Can't wait!Delete
- AnonymousOctober 01, 2013
Cani substitute or delete the potato flour?ReplyDeleteReplies
You can substitute 1/3 cup of potato flakes, but I do not recommend omitting it.Delete
These look so deliciously healthy. They are definitely on my "need to make" list.ReplyDelete
Thanks for visiting my blog! I love hearing from family, friends, and bloggers, so please leave a comment. Happy cooking!

Lafarge is implementing a worldwide initiative to optimize drilling and blasting operations across its 600 sites globally. The initiative aims to reduce costs, increase safety and lessen the impact on the environment. The potential savings are estimated at $7.5-$18.7 million annually.
Fragmentation has a large impact on quarry performance at every stage of the drilling, loading and blasting process. The initiative therefore plans to increase awareness and understanding of fragmentation and implement best practices to reduce direct and indirect costs. Best practices include the identification of experts, suppliers and equipment to improve the blasting process plus setting up procedures and ensuring competency of operators through training.
- Principles of Successful Blasting
Blast Design Parameters – The measurement, understanding and use of accurate design metrics are very important for successful blasting. This should also include consultation with mining plans and a good understanding of the quarry geology.
- Blast Design Pre-requisites
- Face preparation – Benches must becleared, scaled of loose rock, and inspected for condition before profiling and blasting.
- Surveying – Accurate bench profiling and surveying is the first stage in the manufacturing process and is critical to the efficiency of the remaining downstream activities. Key to this is the use of correct equipment and trained operators. Measurement of bench heights, level of crest and toe, slope angle, and maximum and minimum burden can be done using 2D and 3D laser profiling. By mapping a rock face in detail it is possible to determine actual burdens in front of each planned borehole to avoid excessive burden (vibration, oversize) and insufficient burden (flyrock, airblast). If neglected or if surveying is done incorrectly it can have a detrimental effect on the rest of the manufacturing process including poor quality drilling and mining operations with increased safety risks and cost.
Blast Design
Pattern Design – Blast hole layout should be designed with respect to the collected survey data and hence the accuracy and interpretation of this data is paramount.
Safety parameters, vibration limits, explosives to be used and design floor elevations must also be considered when designing the pattern. The resulting blast design plan should clearly specify the collar elevations, burden, spacing, drill-hole diameter, type and quantity of explosives, and type and delay of detonators. The layout of the blast hole pattern should then be set out through the use of surveying instruments.
Execution – Checking that the drilling is done correctly as per the blast design is very important including verifying the hole depth, diameter and inclination using accurate blast hole geometry measurement equipment. Incorrect drilling including wrong positioning, incorrect angle, hole deviation and incorrect depth can pose serious risks.
Loading Plan – Effective implementation and validation of the loading plan including the position of delays, charge, charge distribution, type and quantity of explosives, and stemming requirements.
The improvements gained from an optimized drilling and blasting operation can be measured by reduced costs per ton for blasting and drilling, improved loading speeds, reduced oversize breakage and handling, reduced energy consumption and less fines.
The average measured saving from the pilot study across 12 sites is about four cents per ton. Across Lafarge's total aggregate and cement mined tons (250 Mt) this equates to a minimum of $7.5 million savings annually. Lafarge is confident that further savings can be made through a rigorousoptimization process and is currently rolling out the system across the group.

Sioux Falls Mayor Lays Out Mass Transit Day of Reckoning
Mayor Mike Huether is proud of the growth that Sioux Falls has experienced during his time in City Hall. However, one area that is worthy of scrutiny is in the area of mass transit.
As he sees it, Mayor Huether looks at the current path of this municipal service and is concerned that too much money is being spent without getting a decent return.

MONTVALE, NJ -- Chalk up another Benjamin Moore color coup. Finessing a finish that's been in its Studio Finishes® line for several years, the company has introduced a new edition of its Chalkboard Paint that now is tintable in any color. And, with more than 3,300 hues in the Benjamin Moore system - plus the ability for unlimited color matching - the color choices are exponential and go far beyond the classic black and green chalkboards that most generations grew up with.
"We've just infused a lot more fun and imagination into a communications staple that, since the schoolroom slates of the 1800s, has remained almost unchanged," said Sonu Mathew, ASID, IIDA and Benjamin Moore's senior interior designer. "Now, the opportunity to enliven and invigorate a space has exploded by dialing up the color options so extensively."
Benjamin Moore Chalkboard Paint (308) is a latex topcoat that turns virtually any interior surface into a chalkboard. It is easy to apply, dries in a matter of hours to a durable eggshell finish, is easy to clean and fully washable. It also is formulated to minimize any lingering odors, making it ideal for a child's playroom, bedroom or even the kitchen - as a message center for shopping lists and household reminders.
"There's no rulebook that says chalkboard paint is for walls only," said Mathew, who offered up a slew of other chalkboard paint ideas. "Think about treating a toy chest, tabletop, or other piece of furniture, a closet door or cupboard façade. Any place where you want to see temporary art or a shared family communiqué is prime real estate for a coat of Benjamin Moore Chalkboard Paint."
Another tip: think about using the paint in combinations. "Can't you just hear the giggles of glee that a chalkboard composed of broad bands of red, yellow and green might elicit? Play with pattern. Experiment. Our new Chalkboard Paint is a can full of creative expression just waiting to happen," Mathew added.
Benjamin Moore & Co., a Berkshire Hathaway company, was founded in 1883. One of the country's leading manufacturers of premium quality residential, commercial and industrial maintenance coatings, its products are distributed via a network of independent paint and decorating retailers throughout North America.
Benjamin Moore has been a longstanding steward of the environment with a relentless commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices plus the ongoing development of the most eco-responsible formulations possible. In 2012, Natura®, the company's zero-VOC paint, received the Green Good Housekeeping Seal, acknowledging its high degree of sustainability plus rigorously tested performance. Other superior products in Benjamin Moore's Green Promise® portfolio are Aura, the uber-performance low-VOC paint; ben; and EcoSpec®WB, a zero-VOC paint for commercial interiors.
J.D. Power and Associates 2012 Interior Paint Satisfaction StudySM ranked Benjamin Moore highest in consumer satisfaction; it's the second consecutive year the company received this rating. What's more, the Benjamin Moore color offering of more than 3,500 hues is unrivaled, but any custom color choice can be matched, as was done for the White House Oval Office ceiling and trims.
The only assurance of getting an authentic Benjamin Moore color is using Benjamin Moore paint, since the colorants and resins are proprietary and uniquely zero-VOC formulated with the company's own patented waterborne technologies.

A city man charged with firing shots near a Little League field on Grafton Hill has been sentenced to jail after being convicted of carrying a firearm without a license.
Kevin Jones, 19, of 22 Oakview St., was sentenced in Worcester Superior Court Friday to 2-1/2 years in the House of Correction with 2 years to be served. Judge Richard T. Tucker suspended the balance of the sentence for 2 years with probation.
A 12-member jury Dec. 20 found Mr. Jones guilty of carrying a firearm without a license. Sentencing was postponed until Friday. The jury acquitted Mr. Jones on charges of assault, assault with a dangerous weapon and unlawful possession of ammunition.
Mr. Jones was charged in connection with a May 25, 2011, shooting on Arthur Street, near the Tom Ash Little League Field on Grafton Street. He allegedly fired a .38-caliber handgun at another man, who denied being the target when questioned by police. There were no injuries.
Safety concerns after the shooting caused league officials to cancel some games, but play later resumed.
As conditions of probation, Mr. Jones was ordered to possess no weapons and to have no contact with any witnesses in the case.
Assistant District Attorney Terrence M. Reidy, who prosecuted the case, recommended that Mr. Jones be sentenced to 4 to 5 years in state prison. In a sentencing memorandum, Mr. Reidy said the events underlying the shooting incident were gang-related.
The prosecutor said the fields were occupied by 75 to 100 children and their families when the shots were fired.
"His brazen act put the lives of every person in the area at risk. His actions terrified parents, children, community residents and officials from the little league as well as citizens across the city," Mr. Reidy wrote.
He asked the court to consider that "witnesses were terrified to testify and were reluctant to cooperate with the investigation" because of Mr. Jones' alleged ties to the Kilby Street gang.
Mr. Jones' lawyer, Tom G. Vukmirovits, recommended that his client be sentenced to time served.
Judge Tucker gave Mr. Jones credit for 563 days he spent in custody awaiting trial.

Better than Lisp
Lisp is fun. I enjoy programming in it. But there are some things just blow Lisp right out of the water. "What?" you say.
Well, yesterday, at 8:00 AM, my wife gave birth to our third child. Evan Joseph Roberts was 8 pounds, even. Mom and baby are doing great.
And that, my friends, makes Lisp seem pretty unimportant today. He can't code yet, but we'll get to that... ;-)

Ernest Hemingway
Today marks the 111th anniversary of Ernest Hemingway's birth, and we're celebrating by delving into the author's personal sense of style. Well known for developing a uniquely spare and stoic brand of writing, Hemingway's tastes in life were less understated.
Hemingway grew up in Oak Park, Illinois, a neighborhood that he famously characterized as having "broad lawns and narrow minds." If you're in Oak Park, you can visit the Hemingway Museum and the author's birthplace home, a Queen Anne Victorian of the type that fellow Oak Parker Frank Lloyd Wright was reacting against in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Hemingway left Oak Park to work as a journalist and, later, as an ambulance driver in Italy during World War I. After being wounded (according to the Hemingway Foundation, he was the first American wounded in WWI) he returned home, married, and then moved to France. His time in Europe sharpened his experiences and his eye, and he fell in with other expatriate writers living in Paris during the 1920s — Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Ezra Pound among them. He also met the greatest painters of the day, including Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró. In his 1964 (posthumously published) autobiography, he wrote the now-famous lines, "If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast."
After the publication of The Sun Also Rises, Hemingway divorced, married his second wife Pauline, and left Paris for Key West, Florida. Their home is now a museum which you can tour, decorated with furnishings that he and Pauline collected on their travels through Europe. Their headboard was a gate from an old Spanish monastery, and their kitchen was decorated with Spanish and Portugese tiles.
Hemingway's writing studio remains today the way it looked for most of the 10 years he lived and worked in the Key West home. Located in a carriage house set apart from the main building, his second-floor study is decorated in mementos from his travels. Hemingway was a hunter, and an antelope head hangs over the shelves. In the center of the room are his Royal typewriter and Cuban chair.
In 1934, Hemingway bought a boat which he named Pilar and sailed around the Caribbean. He also went on Safari in Africa during the 30s and traveled to Spain as a journalist covering the Spanish Civil War. In 1939, Hemingway left Pauline for his third wife, Martha. They moved to Cuba and lived at Finca Vigía ("Lookout Farm"), which is now owned and operated as a museum by the Cuban government. (The US National Trust lists it as an endangered property in need of structural repair.) The house holds a library of 9,000 books, as well as Hemingway's artworks and furnishings. The home is open and breezy, decorated with cane chairs, walls of books, and Hemingway's beloved animal heads.
In 1945, Hemingway divorced once more but continued to retain ownership of Finca Vigía and Pilar. His fourth wife, Mary, lived with him in Cuba and later in Ketchum, Idaho, where they moved in 1959. The Idaho house would be his last; he took his life there in 1961 after struggling with mental illness. Today, the home is owned by the Nature Conservancy and is not open to the public.
Hemingway's legacy is his writing, for which he won the Nobel Prize and a place in the canon of American literature. While his text favored economy of words, his personal style was like his life — varied, rich, complex, and well traveled. If there's a thread that ties all of his homes together, it's the presence of books, art, and souvenirs from his many trips. Happy 111th, Ernest Hemingway!

Tour of Alvar Aalto's Design Office
A few weeks ago, we took a look at the residences designed by acclaimed architect Alvar Aalto. Today, we peek inside the place where he worked, his design office, located west of Helsinki. Filled with light and making good use of many classic design pieces, it is an ideal model of a welcoming workspace; one that can provide inspiration for offices and creative spaces both home and away.
Shown above, left to right:
1. Alvar Aalto's private office is the largest space in the Atelier.
2. Architectural model and exhibition poster.

4. The drafting room at the top of the stairs — lots of natural light!
5. In the corner of the double-height room, there is a small stair and loft used to test lighting designs.

U.S. guitarist falsely accuses Korean Air of damaging his guitar: Korean Air
By Kim Kwang-tae
SEOUL, Aug. 7 (Yonhap) -- A U.S. guitarist has falsely accused Korean Air Lines Co. of damaging one of his guitars that was carried in the plane's cargo compartment last month, the top South Korean airline said Wednesday.
Korean Air said it has yet to decide what actions to take against 53-year-old Steven Vai for misleading people by suggesting that the carrier is to blame for the damage to the neck of his guitar.
The controversy stems from Vai's claim on his website (http://www.vai.co" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) that the guitar was damaged after being checked on a Korean Air flight to Japan from Incheon International Airport, west of Seoul.
However, a photo that Vai posted of the damaged guitar on his website was taken on July 28, one day before he left on the Korean Air flight that he claimed damaged his guitar, indicating it was physically impossible for the guitar to have been damaged by Korean Air.
Vai also did not use Korean Air when he arrived at Incheon International airport from Beijing on July 27 to attend an annual rock festival in Ansan, about 40 kilometers south of Seoul, the next day.
On his website, Vai posted a photo of his musical gear being carted to the plane's cargo via tram, and complained that the airline hadn't hand-carried the equipment.
"They usually hand carry it and give it back by hand after the flight. Well, in the case of this airline, I think Korean air, the guitars went under the plane," Vai said on his site. "We actually have video of the gear getting thrown into the cart."
But digital data of the photo showed that the photo was taken by an iPhone at 1:33 p.m. on July 27, and its latitude and longitude coordinates were of a Beijing airport, according to Korean Air.
Digital cameras are equipped with a standard format for storing information on digital photo images, including the date and time the photo was taken as well as the information of its global positioning system, a satellite-based navigation system.
Vai also posted another photo of his damaged guitar and wrote a caption that reads, "After the flight this is what the neck on "Bo" looked like. Snap!"
GPS coordinates of the photo of the damaged guitar showed that it was taken in an area 700 meters from the venue of rock festival in Ansan.
Attempts to reach Vai to seek comment were unsuccessful.

Re: Broken Guitar Causing A Little Stir in Korea
Could it be his phone is still set to US date time? Which would have put it a day before? If he took the picture on the 29th in Korea that would have been the 28th in the US.
Re: Broken Guitar Causing A Little Stir in Korea
no Steve edited the FB posts. It was in Bejing flight, and I think when they went to play the Korean show they discovered the broken neck. He just made a mistake, Korean air actually let them hold the guitars on the flight.

BURNABY, BC – He may be from a country 4,500 miles away, but the significance of Sunday's match against Portland Timbers isn't lost on Andy O'Brien. (4 p.m. PT, Sportsnet ONE and OMNI BC, listen on TEAM 1410 radio and teamradio.ca)
The 'Caps centre back has played in front of big crowds before – including a World Cup qualifier in front of 75,000 at the Stade de France in 2004 – so he isn't likely to be in awe of the occasion.
"The magnitude of this game, with it being a derby and obviously what's at stake – it adds an extra bit of spice to it," O'Brien told MLSsoccer.com after a training session at Swangard Stadium on Friday. "We know what we've got to do, and that's win one of the next two games, and the sooner we do that, the better."
READ: Who's in? Playoff scenarios for MLS' penultimate weekend
While there's every chance that Seattle Sounders FC could end chasing FC Dallas' hopes with a win immediately following Vancouver's game, O'Brien indicated his preference would be to take care of business against the Timbers and make that match moot – not only for the purpose of qualifying for the playoffs, but to continue the momentum ahead of a playoff run.
"Generally speaking, teams that have won [MLS Cup] have been on a roll toward the end of the season," O'Brien said. "We've got two games left in the normal season and we've had some good results leading up to these two games, so if we do manage to get a playoff spot, hopefully then we can roll on to the end."
As the 'Caps press to become Canada's first-ever playoff squad, head coach Martin Rennie is spoiled for choice, with virtually every player around the first-team squad available for selection, including Darren Mattocks and John Thorrington, who both picked up hamstring injuries against Seattle on Sept. 29.

"Everybody's fit, healthy and ready to go," Rennie said. "We're probably the only team in the world with no injuries at this point in the season. So it's a big credit to the medical staff and also to the guys for taking care of themselves."
When asked if the importance of the occasion would make him think twice about using Omar Salgado given his extended absence, Rennie was complimentary of the US youth international.
"I wouldn't have any concerns about playing him," Rennie said. "He probably does better in big games anyway. I think he's that kind of kid where he gets excited about it and he's got enthusiasm and he goes for it – but … we've got a full squad of players so there's a lot of players to choose from and all worthy of their chance."
