Record Editor Mike Klocke's April 28 column, "Our premier event must stay downtown," demonstrates his unfamiliarity with the San Joaquin County Fairgrounds and his prejudice against south Stockton.
The fairgrounds would be an excellent location for the Asparagus Festival. It is designed for that type of event and could showcase the rich heritage and diversity of south Stockton. With easy entry from the new Arch-Sperry I-5 freeway interchange, visitors could not only sample the festival delights and ponder the internment memorial on the grounds, but proceed to tour the Sikh Temple, McKinley Park and follow Cesar Chavez's route to the Stockton waterfront.

I am a resident of Tracy. I can no longer in good conscience sit back and watch good employees of the city be treated in such a heartless manner. For example, a 17-year dedicated employee was terminated with a letter sent while on medical leave. Final paychecks of employees who have left the city having been delayed for months.
This is unacceptable to me, as a retired manager from a leading health care organization. I have worked/managed people for over 35 years and have never seen employees treated in such an inhumane manner.
I will research other organizations to volunteer my time that are not affiliated with the city of Tracy.

FXX to Launch Simpsons Syndication With 12-Day Marathon
After spending tons of dough on tons of d'ohs.
Have you ever spent, like, a lot of money on a pair of shoes and you wore them every day for two weeks to show them off?

To launch The Simpsons on the network, FXX will be holding a 12-day marathon of the show's over 500 episodes. FX chief Jon Landgraf called it "the longest continuous marathon in the history of television." He added, "We don't care that other people had them first, we spent a lot of money and we're going to rock them."

Skip to comments.Boy Scout leader charged with sodomizing Scout
Posted on 02/05/2013 1:48:55 PM PST by massmike
A former Boy Scout leader has been charged with sodomizing a boy in his troop who was under the age of 13.
The abuse took place in 2005, according to court documents, but the victim, now an adult, waited several years before coming forward, reported WHSV-TV in Harrisonburg, Va.
The BSAs Stonewall Jackson Area Council released a prepared statement after the arrest.
The abuse of anyone, especially a child, is intolerable and our thoughts and prayers go out to anyone who may be a victim of this type of behavior, the statement said. The behavior included in these allegations runs counter to everything for which the Boy Scouts of America stands.
The BSAs national executive board is expected to vote tomorrow on a proposal that would allow local Scouting organizations to form their own membership rules regarding homosexuals. WND reported yesterday that many Scout leaders, from the national organization to the troop level, have said they will resign if the proposal passes.
Steve Elwart, a 30-year veteran of Scouting, who once served as an area overseer of the youth protection program in the Scouts Southern Region, told WND the organization, in response to abuse, has developed a model system to protect Scouts.
Leaders, for example, are no longer allowed to meet alone with a Scout.
For that reason, unlike many, his primary concern is not that pedophiles will infiltrate the organization if the policy is changed.
Calling that issue a red herring, his concern is more fundamental.
Homosexuality is not a value I want to see imparted on my children, he said. And a lot of parents feel the same way, that homosexuality is not OK.

The phrase "same-sex molestation" really chaps the hide of the average liberal so I try to use it as much as possible.
Shooting skeet for Dear Leader.
Embrace diversity !
This type of scandal will be eliminated once the Sodomites achieve their next goal-the lowering of the age of consent to twelve years old. I expect California to lead on this issue. By lowering the age of consent the Sodomites can achieve the harvesting of youth without any publicity(except for the occasional father that goes beserk and kills the one who ruined his boys rectum, and such a father will represent mere collateral damage to achieving the great goal buggering boys without restraint).
Norm MacDonald got canned from SNL for telling the truth about Clinton, for one,
but probably mostly for insisting that Michael Jackson was not a pedophile, but a HOMOSEXUAL pedophile.
The PC term is "Unlicensed pediatric proctologist".
Why are there so many gays who want to become boy scout leaders anyway?
When I was in girl scouts the leaders were almost all married women with children who were also brownies and scouts. None of them were childless.
Do the gay males have kids involved?
most adults don't want to hang out with young kids unless they are being paid or it's somehow involves their own children.
"By lowering the age of consent"
Exactly: First the homosexuals wants us to accept sodomy as a natural way of life, then they will press for 16+ to be legal, then 14+, then every child. This is why we must call out these faggots now and stop them now.
"Why are there so many gays who want to become boy scout leaders anyway?"
It's the word "boy" in the club name. The urge to rape and molest is in every fag's DNA.
They are called 'chickenhawks'..........
For almost 20 years, Mitt Romney has promoted this, from his 1994 campaign through his 2012 campaign, Romney ran on homosexualizing the Boy Scouts and the military.
Leaders must now undergo a through background check.
I was a troop committee chairman for 16 years.We had leaders come and want to join the leadership. Some times they would be retired and looking for a place to serve. Some stayed a while but left in two years or so as they settled into there volunteer jobs. Some took it seriously and are still around after several years.
In at least two cases, young men came to work in our town and told us about their scouting record eleswhere. It was bogus. BSA referred to them as travelers. They move around looking for a place to find boys. They were not encouraged or given responsibility.
Now days, in addition to the extensive background check, BSA has very extensive Youth Protection Training that must be renewed every two years.
In small troops the entry is easier because the Scoutmaster is in need of help. In larger better managed troops, it is harder.
The solution is to make the soddomizer wish he were no longer alive.
scouts will have a new badge named after , Ben Dover
Gay males want to feel "normal" even though they KNOW in their hearts that they are not. Being a Scout leader allows them to feel like society accepts them and that they are normal, allowing them to deceive themselves into thinking that this means that God must accept them, too.
I sent this to Wayne Brock the other day. I have yet to receive even an automated reply to either this message or my previous message to the BSA through their website acknowledging receipt of this message:
Mr. Brock,
I sent this through the Scouting website the other day, but have not received any acknowledgment that it was received. I am sending it to you now. Please read this.
As a former Cubmaster and Scouting parent, I read with great dismay the letter on your website regarding the proposed change in the policy regarding sexual orientation. This proposed policy claims that Scouting has always been concerned about doing what is best for the young people that you serve. Add my voice to the list of those who will surely tell you in the coming days that a change in this policy will NOT serve those children well.
Your proposal states that "there would no longer be any national policy regarding sexual orientation." This is false. Currently, the national policy disallows homosexual leaders and members. If you remove the policy, you are in force and effect ALLOWING homosexual leaders and members to participate, so whether the policy is written or not, Scouting will have implemented a policy that reverses course and allows what was previously disallowed.
The culture we live in is groaning with changes, and most of them are not good changes. Our kids are exposed to more sex and violence and swearing and examples of public figures who engage in dishonesty and corruption than at any time in our history, and with the ubiquity of cable television and 24 hour news and entertainment channels, the exposure is constant and nearly inescapable. As Scouting parents, we tell our children that "right" and "wrong" aren't just words, but concepts that have meaning, and that they have to stand against the tide of change in the world. For over a hundred years, Scouting has been a constant that we could point to. When news of the so-called "controversial" policy would come on television, it always offered an opportunity for parents to answer questions that would be asked, or to ask some questions of our own and offer explanations about why Scouting's stand in this area is important. For many kids who have non-religious parents, the stand by the Boy Scouts was the ONLY opportunity they might ever have to hear that there were reasons why allowing homosexuals in Scouting was not a good idea. By changing policy, you will be removing that potential for our kids to learn a positive message, and you will, instead, be telling them that in the face of withering criticism from politicians and the pop culture, EVEN SCOUTING will bend with the wind and do what's popular instead of what's right. You will, in effect, be endorsing homosexuality as an organization.
Your proposal also states that "BSA members and parents would be able to choose a local unit that best meets the needs of their families." Will there be an official list available detailing which local organizations allow gay members and leaders? If not, then you'll be doing a disservice to those who want to continue in Scouting without those influences, and what happens the first time that a local organization that doesnt want to allow homosexuals is challenged by a family that wants in anyway? If you do provide such a list, however, then you will in fact be endorsing "homosexual-friendly" units, which would clearly mean that Scouting will have become a "homosexual friendly" organization. Again, you can't claim to not have a national policy, when the lack of a national policy that once existed leads to proliferation and official sanctioning of something that the policy previously banned.
Change this policy at your peril. Doing so will be the first horn sounded on the march towards the death of Scouting as we know it.
And to think the scouts seriously - SERIOUSLY - considered opening up the scouts to gays.
All I can say is that marshmallows wouldn't be the only thing skewered on the camping trip if Captain Bugger is running the show.
"Why are there so many gays who want to become boy scout leaders?"
It is quite simple. If you need a gallon of milk, do you go to a paint store? Of course not... you go somewhere where there is milk. Same thing with cub scouts/boy scouts. That is where the little boys are. What is tremendously sad to me is I know some women who have put their sons into scouts for the simple reason that Dad is either deceased/divorced... and Dad not involved. That little boy is then easy pickings... he normally wants to be included/appreciated by a father figure of sorts. So sad that this is happening....
SO - the most logical and moral answer to this - allow homosexuals to be scout leaders...
Ben is most honored.

GI - Tommy Refenes bemoans misplaced priorities in light of SimCity launch woes.
After the controversy with Assassin's Creed on the PC, I'm really not understanding why anyone would think this "online only" idea was a good one. It does nothing but hurt honest consumers and actually in some cases forces them to pirate the game to make it work.
I am an advocate of supporting the industry and I generally encourage others not to steal games (yes, I see it as stealing). However if the publisher is screwing the consumer, then how much sympathy can I possibly have? I can assure you, not very much.
Steam is DRM. That is a fact; but it is not DRM that gets in the user's way in such an obstructive manner. Take notes publishers; Valve's got it right and you are doing it wrong.
That's actually a really great philosophy and business strategy. It also falls in line with the crappy practice of the online pass. Consumers should not be punished for buying a used game. They should be rewarded for getting it new. Some PS3 games will give you a free Vita version to download. All Nintendo games come with Club Nintendo reward points. Steam is safe, convenient and is generally user friendly.
This guy understands and is humble about his own game. That's the sign of a good dev.

SINGAPORE, Dec 28 (Reuters) - An Indian gangrape victim whose assault in New Delhi triggered nationwide protests earlier this month has suffered "significant brain injury" and is surviving against the odds, the Singapore hospital treating her said on Friday.
The 23-year-old medical student, who was severely beaten, raped for almost an hour and thrown out of a moving bus in New Delhi, was airlifted to Singapore on Dec. 26 for specialist treatment.
"The patient is currently struggling against the odds, and fighting for her life," Mount Elizabeth Hospital Chief Executive Officer Kelvin Loh said in a statement.
"Our medical team's investigations upon her arrival at the hospital yesterday showed that in addition to her prior cardiac arrest, she also had infection of her lungs and abdomen as well as significant brain injury."
The victim had already undergone three abdominal operations before arriving in Singapore where her condition on Thursday was described as "extremely critical".
Demonstrations over the lack of safety for women erupted across India after the Dec. 16 attack on the unnamed victim, culminating last weekend in pitched battles between police and protesters in the heart of the capital.
Should the woman die, it could trigger fresh outrage over the case, which caught Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's government off-guard and triggered a blame game between politicians and the police.
"We share the anguish and anger with the country over this heinous crime," Singh told reporters on Friday. "Our prayers are with the brave young girl and best possible medical care is being provided to her."
New Delhi has the highest number of sex crimes among India's major cities, with a rape reported on average every 18 hours, according to police figures. Government data show the number or reported rape cases in the country rose by nearly 17 percent between 2007 and 2011.

Chris Brown has drawn criticism from his neighbors over the murals he had painted on a curbside wall at his home in the Hollywood Hills.
The Los Angeles Times reports that local residents are complaining that the images in the street art-style murals are too scary. "There are lots of babies, lots of children, and they're literally frightened," Hollywood Dell Civic Association president Patti Negri told the paper. "It's like devils on the wall - big scary eyes and big scary teeth, and just the whole vibe is not what we're used to."
L.A. city code officials responded to the neighbors' complaints by citing Brown for unpermitted and excessive signage, with possible fines starting at $376. They ordered him to remove the painting within 30 days, after which the fines could rise.
Chris Brown's attorney, Mark Geragos, said that Brown planned to fight the city over the murals. "They are trying to suspend the First Amendment," he said.
Geragos also accused Brown's neighbors of harassing the singer. "I'm scared of neighborhood busybodies like this," he said. "They've called animal control. They have sicced parking (enforcement) on him, and now they reached the heights of ridiculousness here. Shame on them."

WASHINGTON (AP) — The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee says closing loopholes in the background check system for gun purchasers won't threaten firearms owners' Second Amendment rights to own a gun and is a matter of common sense.
In a prepared statement for his committee's hearing Wednesday on curbing guns, Vermont Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy says that after the killing of elementary school students and staffers in Newtown, Conn., it is time to stop sloganeering and partisan recriminations on the subject.
Leahy says the background check system needs strengthening. By law, anyone buying a gun from a licensed dealer must have a background check, with convicted criminals and people with mental problems barred from purchases. Gun buyers at gun shows and online don't need the check.

A subsidiary of intellectual-property firm Vringo is suing Microsoft for allegedly infringing two of its patents, Vringo said today.
Wholly owned subsidiary firm I/P Engine filed the suit in the Southern District of New York.
I/P Engine is seeking a judgment from the court declaring that Microsoft did infringe its patents and requests the court to award past and future damages through royalties and "any form of recoverable economic injury."
The two patents relate to U.S. Patent No. 6,314,420 and U.S. Patent No. 6,775,664, which detail essentially the foundation framework to how a search engine works.
In August, Vringo sold 9.6 million shares for $31.2 million to buy more than 500 patents and patents pending from Nokia -- a partner of Microsoft's in the smartphone space -- which were then used to sue ZTE in a U.K. court. The patent portfolio was worth only about $22 million, making the deal worthwhile for Nokia, but ultimately in the long run even better for Vringo, which may be able to reap even greater rewards from the ongoing lawsuit. That is, if it wins.
It's not the first time the company -- or one of its subsidiaries -- has taken a technology behemoth to court. Late last year, Vringo sought hundreds of millions from Google, AOL, and others in regard, The Wall Street Journal notes, to the same two patents being cited in the Microsoft suit (The Journal also reports that the Microsoft suit targets the company's Bing search engine). The patent hoarder collected only a fraction of its total requested amount in damages.
Microsoft declined to comment.
This story originally appeared, in slightly different form, on ZDNet under the headline "Vringo subsidiary sues Microsoft, claims patent infringement."

The departure of East Gadsden High School head football coach Corey Fuller to join the coaching staff at Florida A&M University last month left a void that was filled April 24 by Fuller's assistant Trace Laing. He has worked at East Gadsden as head strength coach and defensive line coach since 2009.
"Today is a new day, and I have the utmost confidence in the world in our players. I'm looking forward to getting on the grass. We have a good bunch of kids here, and I'm confident they will perform well," Laing said after accepting the position.
This is Laing's first official job in the capacity of head coach and, he said, he is looking forward to the challenge.
His style of coaching, Laing said, is similar to Fuller's and they both are proponents of "old-school" football. The style is very physical and disciplined.
"We will continue that style of coaching," he said. "I have no predictions, and we will focus on getting back where we were. I've been coaching 17 years; I've been around this game for a long time and worked with several coaches. I have learned something from them all, which I will bring with me to this job."
Dr. Kimball Thomas, principal, said Laing was one of the top three candidates.
"Any of the three would have done a good job, but I liked his concept of the student-athlete with the student part coming first. I liked the way he interacts with the students. Some of our male students need that father figure, and he is the father of two boys. I felt he could bring an understanding to some of the kids who really need that role model," Thomas said.
Laing is a graduate of Northern Michigan University and has played professional football in the Canadian Football League as well as arena football for the Milwaukee Mustangs and the Iowa Barnstormers.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Warren Buffett's company has sold two short-line railroads it recently discovered it owned to satisfy regulators who might have reviewed Berkshire Hathaway's 2010 acquisition of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.
Berkshire told the Transportation Department's Surface Transportation Board earlier this month that it had completed the sale of both short-line railroads ahead of schedule.
If Berkshire had reported owning those railroads when it bought BNSF, the Surface Transportation Board would have had to scrutinize the deal. Berkshire first disclosed owning the railroads to the Surface Transportation Board in September.
Buffett did not immediately respond to a message about the short-line railroads on Wednesday, but officials at Berkshire's BNSF and MidAmerican subsidiaries confirmed that the railroad sales were completed.
Before Berkshire acquired BNSF, Buffett sold the company's 9.6 million shares of Union Pacific Corp. and 1.9 million shares of Norfolk Southern Corp. to avoid problems with regulators.
A spokesman for the Surface Transportation Board did not immediately respond to a message on Wednesday. But officials at that agency appeared satisfied in October with Berkshire's plan to sell the small railroads by the end of the year.
Berkshire sold the 12-mile-long WCTU railroad that serves an industrial park near Medford, Ore., to RVTR Rail Holdings in December.
The WCTU railroad was owned by Railserve Inc., which is part of the industrial conglomerate Marmon Holdings. Berkshire has owned a controlling interest in Marmon since 2008.
The six-mile-long CBEC railroad that serves a MidAmerican Energy coal plant south of Council Bluffs, Iowa, was sold to its two other co-owners in November.
The Central Iowa Power Cooperative now owns 94 percent of the CBEC railroad, and the Corn Belt Power Cooperative owns the other 6 percent.
None of the entities that bought Berkshire's short lines owns another railroad, which ensured that the sales didn't require Surface Transportation Board approval. The Surface Transportation Board reviews rail mergers, purchases, construction and rate disputes. It also oversees Amtrak's on-time performance.
Roger Nober, a BNSF attorney, suggested to regulators in a September letter that the short-line railroads had been overlooked within Berkshire because of their small size.
Berkshire is an extremely decentralized conglomerate with more than 80 subsidiaries, including insurance, clothing, manufacturing, furniture, jewelry and utility businesses.
Buffett and other top Berkshire officials don't have much input in day-to-day operations of subsidiaries, and officials at the companies Berkshire owns don't necessarily interact with each other a great deal.
Besides the companies Berkshire owns, it also has major investments in companies like Coca-Cola Co., IBM and Wells Fargo & Co.

1. Re: Problems scaling full screen w/ Intel HD GraphicsJyhzorn Dec 10, 2011 10:48 AM (in response to dellboy36426)1 of 1 people found this helpful
Okay, this might take a minute to read, but I believe I have a solution.
I was playing maplestory (yes I play maplestory...) and normally I have black bars on the sides (when I don't it look like crap).
When I opened the game again this morning, it was stretched (I hadn't changed any options manually)
After about 3 hours of searching forums and such, I gave up looking and started figiting with options.
I found that when you change the screen resolution (normally not ingame) other scaling options come up that are not available in others ( I have been running 1920x1080 since I got this his laptop, it's a dell studio, but it has the same Graphics card).
I switched my res to 1280x1024, opened the advanced res options, clicked the Intel graphics tab on top ( above the other tabs) and the bottem option, scaling,
was set to Scale full screen ( I assume this is what your looking for) I hit the drop down and found maintain aspect ratio.
I got my picture back to the way it was. I'm pretty sure if you we're to go into this resolution ( or what ever your game runs in/something close to what your game runs in ) you could hit the Scale full screen option and get it to play your games with out black bars.
If you want the step-by-step
1. Go into your Resolution options. ( You'll want to know what res is native to your game )
2. When you have changed the res to what you need, Click advanced settings.
3. The top tab should say something like "Intel(R) Graphics and Media control panel", Click it.
4. Go to the scaling drop tab and select "Scale Full Screen" and Apply it.
5. Go back to your Resolution options and set the screen back to your preferred Resolution Settings ( mine Is 1920x1080 )
6. Test your game to see if it worked.
I hope this helps, it worked for me.

4. Re: Problems scaling full screen w/ Intel HD Graphicsdellboy36426 Jan 10, 2012 11:15 AM (in response to DyingWish)
all you have to do, is from the desktop, change your computers resolution to 1024x768. Then right click the desktop again, graphics options, panel fit, and select scale full screen.
When you do this, the 1024x768 resolution will have boxes on the left and right. That is how you know you got it right. You then change your resolution back to it's recommended setting, and the boxes go away. After that, when you play a video game, it will be full screen.
Works for me like a charm

Nasdaq OMX Group Inc., America's second-largest equity market operator. said it merged its data and index businesses as part of a reorganization.
The Global Information Services unit, which has been in operation since Jan. 1, will be headed by executive vice president John Jacobs and comprise 20 percent of Nasdaq's total annual revenue, the New York-based company said in an e-mailed statement. The merger will enable it to "leverage the recent technology investments," Jacobs said.
Nasdaq's data division provides market information for 2.5 million people in 83 countries. There are more than 7,000 products based on Nasdaq indexes, with almost $1 trillion in notional value, the operator said. The company, seeking to expand its business beyond securities transactions, said this month it's combining two technology units that provide advisory services to exchanges and research on company shareholders.
"This is part of a broader shift in how Nasdaq will report its business segments," Matthew Heinz, an analyst at Stifel Nicolaus & Co. who has a buy rating on Nasdaq, said in an e- mail. "It will be a positive for the stock as investors can more clearly see the margin profile of its various business units."
Nasdaq in December agreed to buy Thomson Reuters Corp. units that provide investor and public relations and multimedia services for $390 million in cash as it seeks to diversify. The company also purchased a 25 percent stake in The Order Machine, a Dutch alternative securities-trading system focused on stocks and equity derivatives.
The computerized infrastructure of American capital markets has come under increased scrutiny after a series of breakdowns in the past year, including Nasdaq OMX's mishandling of Facebook Inc.'s initial public offering. Bats Global Markets Inc. and Knight Capital Group Inc. also experienced mishaps.
Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News, competes with Thomson Reuters in selling financial and legal information and trading systems.

Victoria 'Empty Bowls' Event February 9th
Sponsorships are still available for the Victoria Empty Bowls event Feb. 9 in the Victoria College Student Center and Fine Arts Building. The proceeds from each sale made throughout the day provide critically-needed financial assistance to agencies fighting hunger in the Crossroads area. Over the past nine years, this project has raised more than $90,000 to benefit the Food Bank of the Golden Crescent, Christ's Kitchen, Victoria Christian Assistance Ministry, Victoria County Senior Citizen Center and the Victoria College Visual Art Scholarship. Each year, the Victoria Empty Bowls project has inspired area potters and art students to make bowls to be sold and filled with the soup creations of local chefs and restaurateurs.
"This year marks the 10th anniversary of the local event, and we are working hard to make it bigger and better than ever," Sherri Pall, Empty Bowls Event co-chairwoman, told the Victoria Advocate. "Local artisans have already been busy making bowls to prepare for Victoria's Empty Bowls. But, we need the community's assistance to ensure the continued success of the event. All of the proceeds remain in the Victoria community."
"Victoria Empty Bowls sponsors make this experience possible each year and are the heart and soul of its continued success," said Debra Chronister, Empty Bowls event co-chairwoman. "To recognize their generosity, sponsors' names will be printed on the placemats used during the event and will also be included in other advertising."
Sponsorship levels are $5,000, $2,500, $1,000, $500 and $250. Those contributing $1,000 or more will receive a commemorative bowl handcrafted by Chronister and four VIP tickets to Steven Branfman's gallery opening from 6-8 p.m Feb. 8 in the VC Fine Arts Building. Contributions should be made payable to Victoria Empty Bowls and mailed to: Jennifer Yancey, Victoria College, 2200 E. Red River, Victoria, TX 77901.
For more information on Empty Bowls sponsorship, contact Sherri Pall at 361- 582-2590 or Debra Chronister at 582-2435.

VIENNA (AP) — The tenor wandered off, the corpse didn't rise as planned, and the lead soprano dissed her own performance. But "Don Giovanni" still managed to go to hell in style.
The story of the dissolute nobleman who leaves a path of seduction across Europe before descending into the fiery abyss screaming but unrepentant is Mozart's darkest opera. Comic at the same time, it features some of the most complexly beautiful music ever written for the stage. So, there is little tolerance for mediocrity — and there was none, in Thursday's performance at the Vienna State Opera.
Conductor Louis Langree is masterfully in charge of the music on stage and in the pit, from the first resounding chords of the overture to the crashing waves of the full orchestra as the Don is dragged to his doom. In between, he makes Mozart's intentions his own, focusing on the music to develop the personality of each character in a manner few other composers were capable of.
Vocally, Marina Rebeka delivered her worst performance as Donna Anna since she started singing the role in Vienna in October. Or so she said.
If so, her best must have been stellar because her voice was like molten silver Thursday and her acting admirable in her portrayal of the young noblewoman who swears vengeance after the Don first tries to rape her and then kills her father who tries to protect her.
"I wish I would have felt more static in the air," she said, when asked in her dressing room why she wasn't satisfied. "But that's theater — uncontrollable."
She listed small but jarring things. Tenor Toby Spence moved away at moments she was to have turned to him, leaving her instead to sing to the audience "like a prima donna, which I hate." And she had to mourn her father singing crouched close to the floor after machinery malfunctioned and his corpse did not rise, platform-like.
But only those on stage could have noticed the mishaps and, post-performance, the Latvian soprano laughed heartily as she recounted them.
Things could have been worse. At another time and on another stage, an overweight Don Giovanni got caught in the trap door halfway down, prompting someone in the audience to cry out, "Hell's full!"
Ildar Abdrazakov had no weight problems Thursday as the Don. As a matter of fact, he had no problems whatsoever, portraying Mozart's hero-villain in convincing dramatic and vocal style. His bass was rich and nuanced.
As Leporello, Erwin Schrott also scored high marks musically. But his acting was humorless, failing to convey the complexity of the buffoon-philosopher that the Don's man-servant is meant to be.
Mozart perennial Veronique Gens was a convincing Donna Elvira, playing the role of the woman betrayed with all the range and technique this role demands. Also good: Spence as Don Ottavio, Donna Anna's betrothed; Sylvia Schwartz as the peasant girl Zerlina; Tae-Joong Yang as Masetto, her fiancée, and Sorin Coliban as a convincingly menacing Il Commendatore, Anna's father, who returns from the dead to pull the Don into perdition.
Director Jean-Louis Martinoty and his crew place the action at the turn of last century but with the pomp and color that even modern-day Italy has to offer.
When "Don Giovanni" was first performed in the Austrian capital nearly 225 years ago, Austrian Emperor Joseph II praised it but found some fault, remarking: "Such music is not meat for the teeth of my Viennese." To which Mozart replied under his breath "Give them time to chew on it."
If someone was chewing in the audience Thursday, it was inaudible. Too much applause.

In 1987 at the age of 25, Chuck Siegel began crafting premium chocolates, dedicating every day to perfecting his craft; he opened his first Charles Chocolates boutique in Emeryville in 2004. In the decade since, the chocolatier has earned a number of accolades, including a "Best of the West Award" from Sunset magazine, Editor's Pick from 7x7 magazine and a 2011 Good Food Award.
Earlier this year, Charles Chocolates moved to a brand-new facility in the bustling Mission District. Loyal fans appreciate the range of classic confections, from chocolate bars to classic truffles, as well as Siegel's deliciously edible chocolate boxes. As at the original Emeryville location, the new workshop on Florida Street also offers private tours, allowing chocolate lovers to get up close and personal with their favorite sweets.

Who's Got Next? Nike EYBL, Kevin Ware, New Lists and More…Posted by Josh Paunil on May 31st, 2011
Who's Got Next? is a bi-weekly column by Josh Paunil, the RTC recruiting guru. We encourage you to check out his website dedicated solely to college basketball recruiting, National Recruiting Spotlight, for more detailed recruiting information. Twice a week he will bring you an overview of what's going on in the complex world of recruiting, from who is signing where among the seniors to who the hot prospects are in the lower levels of the sport. If you have any suggestions as to areas we're missing, please let us know at email@example.com.
Try saying Nike EYBL five times fast — it's tough, but after this past weekend, it's fairly easy to write. When the best players in the country come together for a three-day weekend leaving everything on the court because a Peach Jam appearance is on the line, you get the best prep basketball in the country. From excellent shooters to freak athletes to dominant big men, the Los Angeles EYBL had it all this weekend and it also gave us a chance to get some updates from prospects regarding their recruitment. And remember that guy Kevin Ware (yes, this Kevin Ware)? Well, he committed… again.
What They're Saying
Josh Gershon on L.J. Rose's (#20) recruitment: "L.J. Rose says UCLA and Texas lead. He'll visit UCLA on Monday and also check out UT again."
Junior Rodney Purvis (#7) on adding a school to his list: "Adding Coach [Josh] Pastner and the Memphis Tigers to my list of schools…." On the best player in the Class of 2013: "[Power forward] Julius Randle (Watch List) is way better then advertised. Hands down best player in country in his class!."
Lis Mack, mother of senior Kevin Ware, on her son's commitment to Louisville: "The visit was pretty much the deal closer. We had a comfort level that he developed and he thinks it'll be a great place for him. On top of the ability to learn and they have a great fan base."
Sophomore standout Jairus Lyles on his favorite school: "I wanna go to Wake Forest… that's my dream school."
Senior Sidiki Johnson (Arizona) on who he's recruiting among the sophomores and juniors: "[Class of 2013 shooting guard] Chris Thomas (Watch List), he's a great player… [Class of 2012 power forward] Danny Dingle out of New York, he's pretty good… and this kid from California, [Class of 2012 small forward] Shabazz Muhammad (#3), that's about it."
Sophomore sensation Kuran Iverson (Watch List) on location factoring into his recruitment: "Well, my mom may say something about it, but I don't really care."
What We Learned
Kevin Ware Commits… Again. With the drama from the Central Florida recruiting scandal dying down, Class of 2011 shooting guard Kevin Ware committed to Louisville over the weekend. After de-committing from both Tennessee and UCF in the past couple of months, Ware joins a Cardinal class that includes shooting guard Wayne Blackshear (#22), small forward Angel Nunez, power forward Chane Behanan (#35) and center Zach Price. With this addition, Louisville head coach Rick Pitino now has a top ten class and will be moved into either the #8 or #9 slot when I update my 2011 Class Rankings later this week. However, keep in mind that Ware cannot make a binding agreement since the spring signing period ended and what he will be signing is non-binding grant-in-aid papers until he enrolls in classes. This means he has the opportunity to de-commit again without penalty if he chooses to do so (but to see why it's likely that Louisville is where he'll attend college, check out what his mother had to say in the "What They're Saying" section above). Ware is a great athlete who excels in transition and is a tremendous finisher above the rim. He is a spectacular slasher from the wing and has improved his perimeter shooting so it too is respectable now. However, he needs to continue to get better at shooting in both catch-and-shoot situations and off the dribble so he can be a scoring threat in a variety of ways on offense. He can also become a better ball-handler since he commits too many turnovers as the secondary ball-handler. Look for him to be a three to four year player for the Cardinals since despite his fantastic athleticism and raw talent, Pitino could really help him develop into an elite player when he's an upperclassman.

- FIA news
FIA defends itself from attacks over unclear accounting
The FIA, no stranger to brickbats and criticism, has come under fire from an unlikely source with the 116-year old Royal Automobile Club (RAC) attacking it for a lack of disclosure in its accounts. The RAC, a members club which is not part of the breakdown service, was a founding member of the FIA.
The FIA is based in Paris where it is not obliged to file publicly-accessible account as a non-profit-making organisation.
The accounts are approved by its 236 members at the annual meeting and it believed the annual revenue is around £50 million. After the most recent meeting the Sunday Telegraph reported that Tom Purves, the RAC chairman, wrote to FIA president Jean Todt to ask for details of payments totalling around £12 million.
In the letter, dated July 25, Purves said "there is a lack of the narrative or detail in the FIA accounts that one would not expect of an international entity, or UK entity. As a chairman responsible for the deployment of members' funds in an appropriate manner, I question the value we receive from our membership fee."
The newspaper said he had queried two items in particular - "personnel expenses of €6.1 million and €8.3 million for travel, missions and conferences".
Nick Craw, president of the FIA's decision-making body, the Senate, replied curtly that these issues had not been raised at the time adding he was "curious as to the reasons and timing of your questions".
He continued: "The costs indicated in the FIA accounts reflect the salaries and social security contributions for those staff." He said the accounts were audited by a reputable firm and "their certification of our accounts is without reservation, which confirms to our members the strictness and quality of our bookkeeping".

Scientific Advisors: Monique Laurent (CWI, Amsterdam & Tilburg) and Kurt Anstreicher (University of Iowa)
Workshop Theme
Optimisation problems that involve polynomials are currently receiving a great deal of attention, due to their generality, their challenging nature and their wide range of practical applications. These two events provide an opportunity for researchers to learn more about this new, exciting and growing field.
The Summer School will begin in the morning of Monday 15 July and finish at lunchtime on Wednesday 17 July. It will consist of a series of tutorials from five internationally respected invited speakers on the following themes:
- Some Recent Uses of Convex Programming in Data Science
Emmanuel Candès (Stanford University)
- Nonlinear Semidefinite Optimization
Michal Kocvara (University of Birmingham)
- Algebraic and Geometric Ideas in the Theory of Discrete Optimisation
Jesús De Loera (University of California, Davis)
- Semidefinite Programming and its Feasible Sets
Tim Netzer (Leipzig University)
- Convex Algebraic Geometry
Bernd Sturmfels (University of California, Berkeley)
The Workshop will begin at lunchtime on Wednesday 17 July and finish in the afternoon on Friday 19 July. It will consist of a series of contributed talks, and a poster session for PhD students and post-docs.
People who wish to speak or present a poster are invited to submit a short abstract. Abstracts and posters on all aspects of polynomial optimisation (e.g. theory, applications, algorithms and software) will be welcomed. The abstracts will undergo a light and informal refereeing process, purely to ensure that they are within the scope of the workshop.

It's the time of year deer hunters around the country wait for. In most locales, bow season is mere weeks away (if not open already). We've put in our work securing land to hunt, scouting, hanging stands, and in many cases, spent hours working food plots to attract and nourish our deer herd.
For those of us that plot, this is can be an exciting time. All that hard work shows in the lush green forage and bustling trail camera activity.
However, it can also be a time of disappointment, when we realize that hard work isn't paying off like we hoped. Did we fail in our soil prep? Was a lack of moisture to blame? Did we choose the wrong seed?
These are all common problems when food plots fail. But they aren't the only cause. Perfectly prepared plots with optimal growing conditions can also fall flat. Why? Simply, we failed to realize that food plots are simply meant to supplement natural food. They cannot be a herd's only source of nutrition.
Over-browsing can destroy a plot before it ever gets a chance to produce optimum forage. If your food plot is failing for no apparent reason, take a hard look at your herd and your property. If deer are abundant, natural forage must also be.
In these cases, quick fixes won't cut it. Sure you can plant an emergency fall plot, such as winter wheat, peas or quick-growing rape, to help your fall hunt. But that won't solve your problem. Ethical hunters will take a two-prong approach.
First, examine your herd. Chances are you are going to need to harvest some does. Whether you want to do that early in the season to help protect your plots, or later, to protect your rut hunting, create an antlerless harvest plan and stick to it.
Next, take a hard look at the natural forage on the property. Hard and soft mast are great. But in areas with abundant herds, natural browse is the real key. Early succession forests are the best answer for creating natural browse. If you are short on this type of landscape it might be time to call your local forester and plan a cut.
Whether you are just getting into the fascinating world of wildlife food plots, or you're a seasoned hand, keep this philosophy in mind when food plots don't perform as expected. For more insights on food plotting for whitetails be sure to catch this week's episode of Deer & Deer Hunting TV "Food Plot Payoff" at 9 a.m. Eastern Sept. 10 on Versus.
For even more in-depth information check out our Building Successful Food Plots Hunter's Resource package.

Eichberg Hall and Eichberg Hall Extension
This 66,000-square-foot building was originally built as part of the Central of Georgia Railroad complex and was completed in 1887. The four-story, Romanesque-style building features loft spaces, tall windows with stained glass, and red brick and terra cotta ornamentation. The design sheds, located behind Eichberg Hall, were built in 1853. The building consists of two separate areas, the brick area known as Eichberg Hall and the sheds, which were used as a freight warehouse. Vacant by the middle of the 20th century, the sheds were facing demolition when acquired by the college in 1988.
Eichberg Hall is home to the architecture, architectural history and interior design programs, as well as the urban design graduate program. Some of the features in Eichberg that students have access to are the materials room, model shop, studio space, drafting and graphic classrooms.

R U kidding? Very difficult..they can look dense and too dark...ReplyDelete
Oh, thank you - I shall add that guide to my christmas list. I'm trying to work more in watercolour.ReplyDelete
Did you have a good try at testing the chocolate too?...all in the name of work of course! I've never understood how American's can call what Hershey's produce 'chocolate' - to me it has such a bizarre taste. But then I suppose it has to do with what you grow up with - plenty of people don't think 'Cadbury's' is proper chocolate, because of the milk content - but it's something of a British institution.
I'll definitely add the museum to my list of places to visit next time we visit Paris, thank you.
I HAVE to eat chocolate to paint it of course...Delete
Too true about the famous American brand though i don't like to think how many Hershey bar with almonds i've eaten way in the past...
The museum gives you samples of different % ships plus white chocolate before you enter. And there are tasting demos inside so you get plenty of chocolate coming and going ;))
It would not be possible not to eat chocolate while painting it, that would be my excuse. Thanks for the advice on the 'painters Palette pocket book' on my Christmas pressy list.ReplyDeleteReplies
Can't think why I left the Mixing guide back in NY?Delete

I will look into that mixing guide..as my DD book I have been waiting for for 4 months..?I received an email from Amaon aplogizing..they thought they could get it but cannot..
When I visit the US ..I'll be on the lookout..
Not sure it will help me..I get lost w/ books.. I am going to send you a link of something taht might be interesting..for painting..a home made thing..I Pinned it.
Love seeing your samples of colors..and I still say that 12 yr old is so darn lucky:)

Wonderful post. I have studied chocolate for years. Ghiradelli in SF put me on the trail, but loved Barton's coffee "beans". Mocha anything for that matter. Knew about the monkeys, too, and still wanted to consume my ration.ReplyDelete
Definitely time to graduate from marshmallow bears. Oh, I guess I have...been having a rocher noir instead of morning coffee.
Merci beaucoup for the link to the watercolor mixing book....it grabbed my eye in the very first photo and I raced through the rest of the post so I could ask you what it is (I thought it might be your personal mixing guide!) but I was rewarded at the bottom and have ordered my very own copy!ReplyDelete
LOVE the thought of letting the monkeys do the de-seeding work!!! Wonder if they consider us humans nuts for picking up their "garbage"....
Hey there!ReplyDelete
Nice post!!I really enjoy checking your blog out! ;)
Come visit mine if you want, and let me know what you think!

Un très joli billet qui me donne l'eau à la bouche...
Lorsque je commence à grignoter du chocolat je fonds !... Une belle source de magnésium à déguster sans complexe.
Ce musée est extraordinaire... La petite femme que je suis en train de peindre en ce moment à la peau couleur chocolat...
Gros bisous
Ps : je m'en vais à la cueillette des champignons. je ne pense pas que ceux-ci seront en chocolat !Replies
I would LOVE to go mushroom picking (cueillette) or picking anything for that matter like radishes...Delete
Sooo lucky Martine!
Thanks for the tip on the watercolor reference book. That does look like a good one.ReplyDelete
I've got to say, your quest for the perfect subjects take you to some remarkable places! Sound like a perfect field trip!Replies

I went to the chocolate museum in Cologne, Germany but am sure this one would have far better quality chocolates.

RSLs are developed by companies, government agencies, non-profit organizations, and other bodies (such as trade organizations). RSLs list chemicals of concern according to various criteria which may vary but often include acute human toxicity, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, reproductive toxicity, endocrine disruption, eco-toxicity, and persistence and bioaccumulation. Some RSLs list only chemicals that are currently regulated while others include chemicals of concern that are not yet restricted.
Many retailers begin their efforts to improve product chemicals management with the development and use of an RSL. Some retailers have created RSLs for internal use and some make their RSL publicly available. There are also sector-wide RSLs that list chemicals that are restricted or banned anywhere in the world. Examples of these for this product sector are:

Burglary: Deputies called to a hotel in the 16800 block of Harlan Road in Lathrop about 5:10 a.m. Monday said they discovered two men with tools to siphon gas and two containers in their car with 15 to 20 gallons of gas. The car's license plates had expired and other license plates, believed to be stolen, were in the car. Deputies arrested Johnny Sapico Zonio, 42, and Edward Anthony Valila, 33, on suspicion of possession of stolen property and burglary tools.
Robbery: A 57-year-old man sitting in his vehicle in the 1000 block of West Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard about 1:45 a.m. Tuesday told police a man and woman entered his car, one of them with a gun, and took his wallet and cellphone. They left in a white, two-door car. One robber was described as a white man in his 20s or 30s with a shaved head, about 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 165 pounds and wearing blue jeans and a brown jacket. The second was described as a white woman in her 20s with long blond hair, wearing blue jeans and a white top.
Robbery: An employee in a business in the 2000 block of East Mariposa Street about 3 p.m. Tuesday was struck in the mouth by a robber who had driven up in a white Ford Explorer with a lot of body damage on the passenger side and demanded money, police said. After hitting the victim, the assailant took cash. He was described as a white man in his 20s, 6 feet 1 inch tall, with reddish-brown hair, a large tattoo on the right side of his neck and small tattoos of letters on his forehead, wearing a blue jumpsuit.

Police arrested Nathaniel Burkholder, 21, on suspicion of evading arrest and auto theft.
Weapons arrest: Officers conducting a traffic stop at West Lane and West Lane Frontage about 12:05 a.m. Tuesday found two loaded handguns, one stolen, in the vehicle and arrested Jerome Tumblin, 19; Quincy Mountain, 19; and Denae McDonalds, 19, on suspicion of weapons charges and possession of stolen property.
The California Highway Patrol did not issue an incident report Tuesday.

The new season of College Hill South Beach premiered last night and boy was there some major drama! The first blow up began with Milan and Kyle. Milan in a somewhat messy fashion tried to out Kyle as being gay to the other housemates, which Kyle took major offense to. Kyle overreacted and called her all kinds of drag queens and accused her of wearing a cheap scarf amongst other things. For someone who claims to be proud of who he is, he sure did seem a tad defensive when it came to his sexual orientation. We also find out Allison is bisexual.
Then we have Terri, who is of course what these shows are all about. Young, naive, and immature Terri takes a liking to self proclaimed hot stuff/big deal Brandon. Terri wasted no time cuddling up to Brandon's bed and spending the first night with him. Upon waking up the next morning, Terri decides she and Brandon are now a married couple and that he is no longer allowed to flirt with other girls.
In more how to lose a guy in 1 day, Terri continues by telling Brandon he is now "TOOKEN" and proceeds to follow him around the house like a lost puppy. Oh yeah she also irons his clothes and makes his bed. Brandon proceeded to do what any normal male would do in this situation and proceeded to run as fast as possible from his fatal attraction. Terri's feelings are hurt and she decides to call her homie/mama who seems to be an enabler to her.
The show ends with next week's preview which looks like even more drama than last night. Terri is seen in the shower with one of Brandon's friends, and Terri and Milan will be getting into a big fight as well.
So a lot of you have noticed by now that BET excluded Terri from all of the cast promotional pictures, and we now have the reason.
Terri and Milan will get into a big fight next week which will lead to Terri leaving the show after only 1 week. Terri wrote a blog a while back accusing the show's producers of holding her hostage after this fight, and refusing to let her call the cops. It seems she ends up being replaced by a 21 year old Kathryn Barlow.
Milan also announces she is dating NFL player Warren Sapp in an interview.

This Place Blows
|Mikias and Jem staying busy waiting for our pizza
It was busy at the restaurant that evening and I looked at my watch to see how long we had been waiting for our food to arrive. It had been over a half an hour since we ordered.
Mikias noticed me checking my watch and said in a fairly loud voice, "This place blows, huh?"
I gave him the look that begs the question, 'WHAT did you just say?'
He said, " I'm sorry. This place is great. I love their pizza. Their (he pauses searching for the right word) timing blows. They are so slow, right?"
"Mikias, 'blows', when used that way, is not a nice word. Also, you would say service not timing"
"I knew I said something wrong because you looked all pissed up"
What the heck? "Miki, 'pissed' is also a bad word and it is 'pissed off' not 'pissed up'."
At last our pizza arrived. We were quietly enjoying our dinner, the October warmth and the beautiful view.
Jem looked up from his meal and said, "I know something you should NEVER say to a person in your family."
He then looked at Mikias and then at me and said with great enthusiasm, "YOU SUCK!"
Mikias and I (and a few surrounding diners) stared at Jem.
Jem said, "That felt awful, right? That is why we should never say to each other 'YOU SUCK!' That is not how families talk to each other! We should make that a rule. Never say 'YOU SUCK!' Okay?"
"Okay." Mikias and I agreed
I caught the eye of our waitress, which was easy, since she and all the diners near us were staring at us.
"Check please?"

TUSCAN TREAT: After Milan and Bali, Bulgari's third luxury resort will be nestled under the Tuscan sun. Francesco Trapani, chief executive officer of the luxury brand, said during the launch of Bulgari's skin care line in Milan on Monday that he was "looking for a location in Tuscany that would combine countryside and marine elements," but underscored that an agreement has not been finalized. Trapani said he was shooting for an opening in 2011.
LA DOLCE LATINA: Venice met Latin America Thursday evening at the annual El Museo's Gala, which this year enticed guests to a masked ball at Cipriani 42nd Street in Manhattan. Between sips of Bellinis, partygoers perused a selection of masks created by more than 40 designers on the night's honorary committee, including Maria Cornejo, Edmundo Castillo, James Galanos, Norma Kamali, Narciso Rodriguez, Diane von Furstenberg and Gilles Mendel.
"Mine was inspired by my dress," explained honorary chair Carolina Herrera of her ribboned confection. "But you won't be seeing any masks on my spring runway!"
After a dinner of tuna carpaccio and steak, Ruben Toledo took his wife Isabel for a twirl on the dance floor — an obligatory one. "I don't like dancing. But I'm Cuban, so I'm supposed to enjoy it," he smiled.
Things were a bit more sedate the previous day when Natura Bisse held a lunch in the Green Room of The London NYC to introduce New York girls to its antiaging products. Candace Bushnell, Dori Cooperman, Dayssi Olarte de Kanavos, Fernanda Niven, Tinsley Mortimer and Fabiola Beracasa listened to a detailed description of the products in their gift box, such as the Diamond Bio-Lift and Sun Defense Cream. "Does the Glyco-Peel come with instructions?" asked a slightly bewildered Dylan Lauren.
"I love the hand cream!" exclaimed Coralie Charriol Paul before boasting to Lauren of her four-month-old son, "If you ever need a child model please keep him in mind."
