Mets fans haven't always had a great team to root for, but they have been treated to outstanding broadcasts of the team's games on the radio and television for decades. The current incarnations of those booths are beloved: Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, and Ron Darling in the SNY booth for TV, and Howie Rose and Josh Lewin in the WOR booth.
Chris Majkowski, the producer and engineer who operates behind the scenes in the radio booth, isn't exactly an unknown among die-hard Mets fans. He hasn't taken a day off in over twenty years, a streak that has had Howie Rose calling him "'The Immortal' Chris Majkowski" on broadcasts for years. And his Twitter feed, @MetsBooth, is popular.
Majkowski doesn't really think of what he does as work. He considers his seat the best one in the house, or at least the next-best to Rose's seat. He clearly appreciates that he gets to do what he does for a living and thoroughly enjoys it.
A lifelong Mets fan, Majkowski who grew up in Albertson, a town in Nassau County, and graduated from Fordham University in The Bronx, where he got the radio bug while working at WFUV, the school's well-regarded radio station. He remembers the first game he attended as a child, sitting in the back rows of the field boxes at Shea Stadium for a double-header between the Mets and Reds on a sweltering day. But it was tough to see much of anything from those seats, and they only stayed for the first game.
His first vivid memories of sports came in 1973: the Mets' playoff push late in the regular season, Rusty Staub dislocating his shoulder against the A's in the World Series, and literally running home from school to catch playoff games—which were all played during the day—on the black-and-white television in the basement at home.
Majkowski got his start in the radio business about a year after he graduated college when Bob Jewell, who was the chief engineer at WFUV, told him he knew a couple of guys that were looking for someone who could handle radio equipment and had an understanding of sports, someone who could keep a scorecard and know when timeouts were coming up to assist the broadcasters.
"Oh, well that sounds like something that would be up my alley," Majkowski thought.
So he started with those guys: Joel Blumberg and Brian Ferguson. Some of the first games he worked were Hofstra football and Islanders hockey. And he worked his first baseball games at Shea for visiting broadcasting legends Harry Caray of the Cubs and Harry Kalas of the Phillies.
"Harry Caray was funny because I had to go and find him to record the manager's show. Harry didn't do anything when he recorded the manager's shows, except he took a hold of the microphone. You had to go with a tape deck at the time, hand Harry the microphone, tell him, 'okay, we're recording,' hit a stop watch, and signal," he says as he holds up one finger at a time, "one minute, two minutes—because you're supposed to do four minutes—three minutes, four minutes, and then he knew we had to wrap it up."
The technology in the booth at the time wasn't nearly as advanced or useful as what's available today. Majkowski filled out lineup cards for Murphy with home run and RBI totals. He laughs a bit and says, "We didn't get into the on-base and the slugging and everything else that we pull in today."
Out-of-town scores, which can be tracked easily in real time in a number of ways now, were a bit of a production.
He did some work at Madison Square Garden, too, and the Mets' gig opened up in 1993. He went to work with Bob Murphy, the Mets' own legendary broadcaster, and Gary Cohen in the radio booth.
"We used to have this sports ticker and this roll of paper that would keep spitting out. And at that time, it made a bit of a racket, but if you were doing it long enough—it was a dot-matrix printer," he says as he mimics the sound of it. "If you did it long enough and you were sitting next to this thing for hours upon end like I was, a home run had a certain rhythm to it. You know somebody hit a home run, not even by looking at it, just by hearing how that thing was going—'oh, that's a home run, I better check that out.'"
A couple of decades later, he might not feel like he's at work, but Majkowski says the longest days are the first days of a road series or a home stand. He sets up the booth on those days—running cables and checking mics—and is naturally fond of long home stands.

E.J. Dionne thinks he sees "faith-based hypocrisy" when some defenders of Harriet Miers attempt to convince conservatives that she's one of them by pointing to her religious faith. Ed Morrisey has made the same point.
Dionne and Captain Ed raise a serious point, but in the end I don't see the hypocrisy. When a president nominates a Supreme Court with a scant record of publicly stated beliefs, it's natural to try to read the tea leaves. Thus, with Chief Justice Roberts, we all (on both sides) were curious as to whether he was a member of the Federalist Society. To the extent that he was (or had been), some conservatives would have been more comfortable with him and many liberals less so.
Curiosity about Miers' religious affiliation strikes me the same way. It's not something I'm interested in, but that doesn't make it unreasonable or improper for other conservatives to regard the information as relevant in their quest (in an information poor environment) to get a general sense of how she views the world.
But what about the Article VI, Clause of the Constitution which states in part that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States"? As I understand this provision, it protects Miers and other nominees from having to disclose their beliefs about religion. It also prohibits Senators from basing their votes on a nominee's beliefs. It would offend the Constitution if, for example, Senator Schumer voted against William Pryor out of fear that his deeply held Catholic views would cause him to violate his oath to uphold the Constitution. The same would be true if a Senator voted against a nominee because she is an atheist. But I'm hard-pressed to see a problem with private citizens using such bits of information to try to form a sense of a nominee.
I do agree with Ed that, as a policy matter, it's better that the White House not use Miers' faith as a selling point.
UPDATE: If there's a hypocite here, surely it's Dionne. He advocated that the Senate interrogate Roberts regarding the implications of his Catholicism on his judging. Now he thnks it's "good news" that some conservatives think the White House shouldn't even mention Miers' religion.

A thrilling adventure with two hilarious characters, told through several interwoven stories relentlessly that do not let you blink. They use the Breakdancing, comedy, theater and pantomime as scenic languages, and they engage the audience into the story.
Category Dance
Two very different styles of dance but with one element in common: the Oriental Dance. The Oriental Dance is a dance that combines traditional elements from the Middle East along with others from North Africa. It is characterized by its smooth and fluid movements, dissociating and coordinating at the same time the different parts of the body. The Tribal Fusion style is defined by picking up movements and symbols from multiple disciplines and passing them through their sieve to make them their own. It merges West and East. It appropriates music of all kinds and from all over the world and goes through aesthetics and environments very diverse exotic, mystical, contemporary, urban… It is one of the most creative and flexible dances of these moments.

Have you ever made a cootie catcher? A cootie catcher is a piece of paper folded in such a way that you can put your thumbs and index fingers inside and open and close the paper "box" in two directions. Numbers are written on the top and "fortunes" and the like are written under the flaps of the numbers.
|These paper art silhouette ornaments by Sharyn Sowell
look complex, but they're actually easy to make.
For the most part, cootie catchers provide giggles for adolescent girls. But it turns out the basic cootie catcher construct can be the basis for paper art silhouette ornaments. These ornaments (which can also be used as gift toppers and card embellishments) turn kids' amusement into sophisticated handmade paper crafts.
I first saw these silhouette ornaments, by Sharyn Sowell, in Cloth Paper Scissors Gifts 2010-2011. Their appeal still enchants me-as creative paper crafts and as last-minute gifts. Here's an abbreviated version of the instructions.
Make the Shadow Box
1. Cut a 7″ square of paper.
2. Line the edge of the ruler diagonally across the square and draw the tip of the bone folder along the edge of the ruler to make a score line. Repeat in the other direction, creating an X with the fold lines.
3. Fold the new corners up to meet at the center, making a smaller square.
4. Flip the paper over and fold the corners up to meet at the center.
5. Now fold the tips back toward the outside edge. This fold is to lift the paper and bring dimension to the ornament. You can get different looks depending on how far you choose to fold the paper back.
6. Flip the paper over to the front side and fold the tips at the middle back toward the outside edge. You can trim them, curl them back, add decorative paper to them, or leave them as is.
7. Use rubber stamps, glitter, calligraphy, collage, or anything else that ignites your imagination to decorate the ornament. Snip bits off with fancy scissors; add scraps to vary the shape. Decorate this little canvas as simply or lavishly as you like. Give it your own vibe.
Make The Silhouettes
1. Take a profile photo of a person or a pet. Or, use a copyright-free profile of a favorite animal. Print the photo so the head and shoulders are approximately 1½" x 2″.
2. Print the photo on inexpensive copy paper as it will be thrown away.
3. Use a paper clip to secure the photo to the piece of paper you've chosen for the ornament. You'll want lightweight opaque paper; scraps are perfect.
4. Using small, sharp scissors, carefully cut the profile image from the stacked photo and paper. Remove the photo and paper clip.
5. Cut a 3½" square of cardstock and adhere the silhouette with a tiny amount of glue. Be careful not to get glue on the front of the silhouette.
|If you don't have a profile picture of a person, use the silhouette of an animal.
Assemble the Ornament
1. Lift 1 or more of the front folds carefully and tuck the silhouette into the shadow box. If you want, you can place a gift card, folded money, a thin piece of candy, or some other little treasure behind the silhouette.
2. Fold the flaps back into place. There is no need for glue because the flaps will hold the silhouette nicely.
At this point, you can mount the silhouettes on card stock and frame them or use them as the focal point for handmade cards. Or, you can continue to the next step for making an ornament.
3. Snip off a piece of wire. A generous basic loop can be fashioned from a piece roughly 6″ long, but you can shorten or lengthen it as you like. Bend a tight curl on one end of the wire with the pliers. Poke a hole in the paper and insert the wire under one of the folds of the ornament. Pull the wire through, and bend it into a curve or curl.
4. If desired, decorate another 3½" square of paper as you like and glue it to the back of the ornament.
How easy is that? These silhouette ornaments are just one of many creative paper crafts, fabric crafts, and mixed-media projects in Cloth Paper Scissors Gifts 2010-2011. Many of these projects can be create in a short period of time, making them perfect last-minute gifts and home décor.

This photo, take during late-night hours in the surgical family waiting room at an all too familiar hospital started out as two perfect clementines pulled from an emergency bag of snacks my sister packed.
With a respect for privacy in mind, I'll say that slowly pulling off the peels helped keep waiting hands busy. Fooling with them like puzzle pieces relieved the tension a bit. They were so fragrant I kept inhaling that citrus perfume until my mother said, "Enough already!" half in laughter, half in exasperation.
The hours had passed until it had grown dark and there were only five people left in the waiting room. Night rain splattered the windows overheard, and the wind was howling. My husband was snoring open-mouthed on a long low couch before a nattering television, and my sister amused herself (and us) by videotaping him with her smartphone.
We had hours yet to go, and as I fiddled with the vibrant orange peels I was trying to put pieces together in my mind that wouldn't fit back into a comforting whole.
A few predominant thoughts emerged and crystalized: This is what it is. This is what keeps happening—life. Choices are simple, if you push aside desire, which muddles everything. Just choose and move forward wholeheartedly. If you fail, try harder or choose differently. Strive to be good and forthright and empathetic, because small gestures of kindness have the power and the energy to overcome darkness and despair. Always have mercy.
We had experienced instances of this all evening. The surgeon who held the frightened patient's hand. The priest who stayed up to reappear so late into the night to offer a smile and another prayer. The nurses, whose patience surely must have been worn threadbare, who remained firm, plain-spoken, and above all that was needed at any given moment, calm.
The next day, as I tried to label this thread of humanity, I ended up calling it "the sweetness among the pieces." It held us together. It buoyed us when we flagged. And it helped us through to the next step, moment by moment.
Today, we are all still here, and I am grateful. I can also feel the spot, right next to my heart, where the seat of my convictions has slightly shifted. I am hyper-focused on it now because of the intensity of certain circumstances, but for lack of better terminology I'm defining it as "calm immediacy." Like the sweet orange segment pictured among the peelings, it's a compact reserve of spirit-filled fortitude upon which to draw when darkness—grief, fear, anger, denial, etc.—threatens to overwhelm.
Like love, compassion is a well with no bottom. And like gazing into a well, we can find our own features in its likeness, when we are thirsty. Drinking in compassion sustains us, but also promotes its own increase, because it shows us how to share our cup in turn. It shouldn't take a crisis or catastrophe to find and dip into the font, but it so often seems to, doesn't it? I guess it's a human failing, this tendency to dry up, but I hope we always find the path to compassion's wellspring and keep the fragrant juices flowing.
p.s. and don't forget about rest and healing laughter…

(February 2010) The Catskill Watershed Corporation (CWC) has announced an ambitious three-year project to promote the "greening" of the tourist industry throughout the five-county Watershed region. Over 150 tourist and lodging facilities will receive direct technical assistance from Hospitality Green, LLC to improve pollution prevention, recycling and source reduction practices.
The Green Concierge project is part of New York State's efforts to promote eco-tourism in the Catskills, as well addressing regional and statewide environmental, economic and industry sector goals. Hospitality Green will provide site visits, assessments, resource tools, and collection assistance for lodging and hospitality facilities in the Catskill watershed in order to institutionalize and quantify "green" practices throughout the region.
One of the unique aspects of the "Green Concierge" project is the use of HG's proprietary facility assessment and audit tools, which were developed specifically for institutional settings. These tools allow facility managers to track measureable environmental improvements in water and energy usage; solid waste generation, recycling and reuse; purchasing; and chemical usage. Facilities are thus able to create and implement individualized facility improvement plans and track their progress toward source reduction goals.
Because of CWC's role in maintaining a clean water system for the 9 million residents of New York City metropolitan area, emphasis on water conservation and chemical reduction are particularly important in the Catskills. Ninety percent of the 1.3 billion gallons of water consumed daily by New York City and surrounding communities comes from the six reservoirs in the Catskill Mountain/ Delaware River region of New York state.
Funding for the "Green Concierge" project is coming from a $74,000 grant from New York State's economic development agency, Empire State Development Corp., along with $50,000 from the CWC's Catskill Fund for the Future. Facilities eligible to participate in this project include hotels, inns, bed and breakfast establishments, campgrounds and rental condominiums. Interested facility managers in the five county region should contact Hospitality Green at 845.436.6173.
The Catskill Watershed Corporation is a Local Development Corporation established in 1997 to protect the water resources of the New York City (NYC) watershed located west of the Hudson River. Covering portions of Ulster, Green, Delaware, Sullivan and Schoharie Counties, CWC's mission also extends to preserving and strengthening communities in the region as well as increasing awareness and understanding of the importance of the NYC Water System. (For general information about the CWC, please visit http://www.cwconline.org)
Hospitality Green, LLC, is based in Mountaindale, Sullivan County, NY. For more information on Hospitality Green, please visit www.hospitalitygreen.com/Aboutus

Pray for our Nation
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
I feel as though our nation is falling from grace. When her people continue to do things contrary to the Word of God, then we are treading on dangerous ground. We accept abortion as a right for the women. Oh, many of us know that it is wrong but can do nothing to stop it other than pray. Many fight for the right of the unborn; yet, abortion is still performed in America every day.
The Word says that it's an abomination for a man to lie with another man. (Leviticus 20:13) Yet, this is being stuffed down the throats of Americans as young as kindergarten! The belief is that all people are 'free' to do whatever they want with their bodies and nobody is to complain.
Then there is Israel. As a nation, we should be supporting Israel and not trying to force her to sell off her land. And, we should be her ally in everything. Yet, the president has said, if Israel sends a bomb the way of Iran, then she is on her own and we'll do absolutely nothing. My friends, that sounds like disaster for America. A nation that stands for Israel will be blessed, but one that does not stand behind her will not be blessed.
Christianity is being raked over the coals every where you look. The pastors are going to be held in contempt and jailed for what the government is going to call hate crimes. It will be a crime to teach against certain things in the Bible that are clearly wrong and being practiced in the US. This could get them a prison sentence.
I've lived a long time, watching all this unfold. And, in my observation, I believe the Lord's return is growing closer. Nations are rising against nation, people are hated for their faith, and many Christians are being persecuted. But, through all this, we shouldn't lose faith in the Word of God. He tells us to 'look up, for your redemption draweth nigh'.

Newcomers to my blog may not know where I hang out. When I'm visiting my Library, I'm pounding the pavements on the west side of Mooresville, Indiana. Thanks to Google Maps (2011), here are aerial views of my hot spots.
Mooresville Public Library
(Red Circle is Children's Outdoor Garden)
(#1 is where I'm sitting)
If you're a freedom feline like me, you can expect the occasional food and water bowls left outside my library area (see #1 above) or at various feline-friendly homes in the surrounding neighborhoods. But there is prime dining available outside various restaurants within easy walking distance. People are so wasteful! They toss out lots of perfectly good food just waiting to be rescued from the dumpsters. (For some unfathomable reason, cats are not welcome inside restaurants. Feline discrimination, that's what that is.)
Skilled in the Art of Clandestine Dining
On the Google Map images below, I've circled in red several restaurants nearby my Library, with the (probable) dumpster locations indicated in yellow. Beware, would-be kitty dumpster divers! Avoid sharp objects, broken glass, and such like. Also, you will find that certain dumpsters attract herds of fellow kitties, so you must reconnoiter carefully and approach with caution.
Just North of Newby Elementary School Campus
(on North Monroe Street)
A Few Prime Eateries in
Downtown Mooresville
McDonald's at Intersection of South and Indiana Streets
I've Hit the Mother Lode!
Scowl-Face has advised that I mention that we are not endorsing any of the establishments mentioned herein; rather, I am simply suggesting good places where fellow roaming felines may grab a bite to eat through the skilled art of clandestine dining. There are other excellent restaurants in Mooresville that my cat colleagues will wish to frequent. You people, too, might try them as well. Heck, just go out to every single food-serving establishment in Mooresville and eat plenty. Enjoy yourselves. It has to be better than Scowl-Face's cooking.

P.S. Thinking of fine cuisine and those who enjoy it, we offer this cute animation featuring George Harrison's "Piggies" from The Beatles White Album.
P.P.S. Any food song reference must include something from Weird Al Yankovic. Here is "Spam" from UHF: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and Other Stuff (1989).
P.P.P.S. If you have a high tolerance for glucose-laden '60's pop, here is "Sugar Shack," performed by Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs (1963). This may be the original 45 rpm single version. It sounds like it, what with all the pops and scratches.

Well, it's that time of year! I sat down last night and wrote my annual Christmas letter. Maybe this year I will actually get it out. LOL!
This year has been really crazy for our little family. Some of it was crazy good, some was crazy bad.
Until May we had been plugging along as usual. Then things really picked up for us.
In May O found his new passion/activity, tae kwon do. He fell in love with this sport instantly. Really... what boy would not look forward to going to class where you get to kick, punch, roll and swing sticks (the sticks are actually called Bahng Mahng Ees and they are not allowed to be used on his sister... EVER!)? He has done well with TKD. At home he will ask for us to pull up the videos of his forms so he can practice. In six months he has worked his way up to a green belt! Also, he went to a competition a month ago and did well. He was first up in his group for forms and kept his composure through all the moves. He tied for third in his forms and afterwards he told us he needs to work his kicks and next time his form will be better! Wow! He placed third in sparring. The week before in class he would stand there and let the other kids just hit and kick him. But, at the tournament he had his opponent dancing around the ring. I'm so floored how this little kid can compete with kids two and three years older, and hold his own. This boy has my heart! I love his confidence, his passion, his love. And he's only five years old. I look forward to what he brings to us in the future.
In May, K scored a main role in Seussical The Musical Jr. She really put a lot of pressure on herself for this play. She's still so small and petite, and her voice is still little. Her worry was that she would not be heard from the stage. The shows went well and she was happy with her performances. During her time in this play hubby and I decided her dedication and love of acting warranted us looking at agents for her. I found one on recommendation and amazingly this person signed K. K has no experience with film acting so this was amazing. We LOVE Mrs. B. I feel like she has K's safety in mind. She even understood when I turned down an audition for K after getting the script (I was not comfortable with the content). It scares me to the core to have K involved with this industry. K auditioned for an award winning acting troupe this past August and earned a spot! They only took 25 kids and K is one. She is one of the youngest and fights her hardest to keep up at each rehearsal. But, to see her face when we pull into the parking lot on rehearsal days is priceless. She lights up...glows! How do you tell her no? She loves this with all her heart. I know this child is going far. She's patient and knows it too. In her words, "One day I'll make it big! But, the glory will be God's!"
For hubby and I May was normal enough. Then, one day he was tasked with running the figures at work to see when the money would run out. BIG writing on the wall! He was let go in July. It was hard! He had worked for that company for almost 9 years. When he was first hired, he had hopes of retiring from them. This economy is hitting everyone hard and he was not immune. Once again God had us covered. It took hubsters five weeks to be hired with a new company. Here's the kicker...he would not have applied for this position if he still had his last job! The new job is quite different. He now has a commute, travel and all the trappings of a big company. However, he has some great benefits. He is also getting to see many places he would not have normally seen.
Me? I'm plugging along. Many times this year I have felt like I was barely treading the water to stay afloat. There were many times I felt like I was sputtering and gasping for air. But, God had me. For each time I felt like was was being pulled under, I would be lifted a little bit higher. Many times I have to remind myself that God will not give me more than what I can handle. I have handled some big stuff in my life (my brother's death, Katie's scary birth, Owen's health scares). But, at the end of each one I am a changed person. Changed for the better. I can honestly say this year has changed me in a big way. I will not enter the next year as the same person I was this year. God took me and molded me some more. He made me a better person. He made me realize just how much I love my hubby and kids. Because, at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the love I have for my family and from my family.
That my friends is my wish for all of you. Let yourselves be molded. It is not always a fun process but the end results are so worth it!

marc vanrunxt
Marc Vanrunxt in Movement Research Performance Journal #39
David Bergé, oktober 2011
Marc Vanrunxt (b. 1960) has been active as a dancer and choreographer, mainly in Belgium, since the early 1980's. He is a compatriot and a part of "the new Belgian wave" alongside Wim Vandekeybus, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, Jan Fabre and others. He is perhaps less known outside of Belgium, but one only has to own a distinguished eye to know that is an unfortunate fact for the world. The worlds created on stage by Vanrunxt are triumphs in their exactitude, seismic register, and knowledge of the aesthetic world around them. Photographer and frequent collaborator David Bergé, accompanied Marc to the Antwerp Zoo for a nice chat. David says, "As a photographer I was happy to collaborate with him on Extraction, his 2009 production, a process that spanned over more than two years, out of which 2 or 3 weeks were actual studio time with the dancer..."
David Bergé (DB):
Back in 2007, when you asked me to collaborate on EXTRACTION, one of the first things you brought to the table, was LINE FORM COLOR, this book by Ellsworth Kelly. About which Kelly stated "It was an alphabet of textual elements without text which shall aim at establishing a larger scale of painting, a closer contact between the artist and the wall, and a new spirit of art accompanying architecture." How does that relate to your choreographic approach?
Marc Vanrunxt (MV):
My goodness! That's a long time ago. But it's true, LINE FORM COLOR is the alphabet of what is possible with line, form and color. I think it's a kind of catalogue for Kelly, as I understood it, it's a work of art which he tried to publish already in the early 50ties and was only realized in the 90ties. It has a didactic side as well, a way of showing the infinite amount of possibilities there are possible with form, line and color. He goes from black and white to squares and circles, to the different colors and at the end towards a combination of colors. We choreographers are lacking such a tool and that's why we are so hopelessly seeking for other references. We are lacking vocabulary with the art of dance and choreography. To truly speak about dance and choreography we very often have to use or even abuse other sources like painting, photography, design and even cooking.
To me the oeuvre of Kelly is also a way of dealing with the concrete and abstraction at the same time. There are no words in this book. Kelly escapes the problem of language. By suggesting topics or referring to content, I am doing the same thing, in my way .
To me dance is never abstract, because it involves real people however stylised. I am interested in making the concreteness of the body on stage more abstract though: the movement of abstracting a concrete form, it's like pulling something out of something else. By this movement you get to a certain essence and that is exactly what EXTRACTION refers to. One takes something valuable out of something else then you redefine it and elaborate on it.
In 1998 you made PRIVATE COLLECTION, a solo for the same dancer, Eva Kamala Rodenburg. I remember when we first talked about EXTRACTION, you asked me to symbolically project these 11 years of choreographic material on Eva in 2009.
You always drag your past with you. Even by making a new piece every year, it seems to be impossible to get rid of my own past. I use past experiences to learn from it and to rely upon, on the other hand with every new piece there is a desire for renewal. Both elements should be in balance and that's a tough exercise.
How do you usually relate to collaborators that are not dancers? On what premisses do you invite them?
My main drive is curiosity. I am curious and very much interested in the work of other people: dancers, scenographers, make-up artists, photographers, designers,... This curiosity is not on a personal level, but on a level of how they relate to my suggestions. I am not into psychological stuff or games or even discussions, but i think i am very curious on how different people react on my proposals and suggestions to create something new.
The music you use for the first part of EXTRACTION is Robert Ashleys' In Sara, Mencken, Christ and Beethoven There Were Men and Women (1972). In previous works you worked with the music of Morton Feldman. Could you talk a little bit about your choice for these particular composers?
OK, sometimes I discover pieces of music which haunt me for many years. They stalk me and I start developing a love-hate relationship to them. i throw them away and bring them back. Sometimes i'm afraid it's gonna be too difficult to find an entrance in, because I am often interested in non-dance music.
I dont want to use music as auditive wallpaper. I want to do justice to the music, but
never with the aim to give a definitive listening or interpretation. I just want to present one possible way of dealing with a certain compostion. As an example, I worked twice on the music of Feldman's NEITHER, the anti-opera he made with Samuel Beckett; one version called Antimaterie, in 1999 and 4 years later another one called Unspeakable with Kitty Kortes Lynch. Even to me it was as if i didn't recognize the music, I had found a new way to listen to it, to that incredible difficult piece of music.
With Ashley it is similar. He evoques a same kind of thoroughness, which creates a lot of resistance. When I started to work with Eva on the music, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to go through with it. Some kind of miracle happened, I found out we would be able to come up with a valid and strong proposition, and answer to Robert Ashley's beautiful work of art.
To me its like a communication through his work, and it's same with Feldman. Morton Feldman is dead but I am still dealing not only with the music but also with composer himself. I admit it's a one way direction.
Do you use the structure of the music in order to structure your choreography?
No! Working with this kind of music involves guts, magic and lots of luck. I never analyze the music as such. Again, I try to impose or rather suggest my structure against the musical structure. Choreography relates in a autonomous way to the structure of the music. Exactly because I don't want to translate the music, the notes, not even the content of the music. And that is for me the key in the music of Ashley and Feldman; it lacks that kind of narrative, this music doesn't impose a narrative. In contrast to for example the Sacre du Printemps or the Bolero, in which you simply have to follow the structure or color or dynamic. If you don't, it becomes a statement on its own. And I am not interested in this kind of statement.
It is a matter of relating and taking position to that music, no?
Exactly and there is never a winner.
It's not about the conflict. Maybe it's more about confrontation: bringing things together in one piece, like Pink Floyd and Ashley in EXTRACTION?
Yes, it's about composing and playing with existing scores. Sometimes I feel like mixing not only different compostions but also mixing different areas or two or more styles together. For example, in 2002 I created a performance called Most Recent on the music of John Cage (50's avant-garde), Grand Master Flash (70's rap music) and Jim O'Rourke (90's ambient).
This kind of ideas are sufficient as a narrative for me.
Talking about narrative, in For Sara, Mencken,.., Ashley used an existing text by John Barton Wolgamot, which is a vocal succession of the names of well known people and totally unknown people. Of the dead and the living. There must be a reason for choosing this piece related to the people, no?
Well, you get a large sense of history: there is the bigger history with Christ and Beethoven and Claude Debussy and Cyrano de Bergerac.
And there is also on a smaller scale, his friends, the name of his girlfriend or wife. So you basically get a a mixture, a series of ghosts appearing and it seems to me that they are backing up Eva, the dancer in EXTRACTION. She is dancing solo, but I feel that all those people back her up in an almost physical way. After a while the electronic score of Ashley's piece takes over and it somehow becomes more and more 'music'. After a while the names disappear to the background. It is impossible to actually listen to this 40 minute track without experiencing side-effects. If you like it or not, you get hypnosed, you get lost, and that is the ultimate goal, that's a gift almost, you get lost in this labyrinth.
Do you think my projections in EXTRACTION work in the same way? As a by-standing figure for this lonely dancer? How do you see the variations on that photo <<printed here>> projected in the frame of the solo?
It's always a shock when your projections appear. I see it as a layer. I consider choreography as an act of layering, as if constructing a building with different floors and compartments, rooms, cellar, ground floor etcetera. As a choreographer you build and you construct and i think the projection is another layer to this construction and at the same time it is a important source of light as well.
The dancer doesn't react to those projections.
True, it is a purely visual stimulus for the audience. It has the ambition to throw the audience out of the performance for a second, in fact, by suggestion to look again, to refresh. The same with Ashley, he paves the way to start hearing different things, it's not a story but you get the freedom for floating. Your projections are a wake-up call, a way to refocus on the performance, to add another layer.
Can you talk a little bit about presence and emergency in relation to Lamentatio? Another solo for another woman.
Marie de Corte has a very strong presence and at the same time she is very consciousness of the effect that presence. She has an amazing appearance, strong eyes and in fact Lamentatio is all about that. The movements really are inferior to her appearance. We need the movements to structure the piece and they stand for the action. But it's really about showing Marie in a way that she can show herself. It's about pushing, about putting pressure on (the presence of) the dancer.
Sometimes I make pieces which are overloaded with historical references (like EXTRACTION), and in other pieces (like Lamentatio) I try to not refer to outside things. In Lamentatio I tried to work as direct as possible trying to have no filter between the audience and the performer, which is of course an illusion.
And this illusion is the fact of being touchable or approachable on stage. But of course a performer is never approachable as long as he or she stays on stage in the lights. To me this solo is about Marie haunting the space, taking the space step by step in high heels in a beautiful black dress. She is exploring the space, controlling the space, as if ignoring the audience. Whereas at other moments she is front stage watching at the audience, on the edge of the stage. It sounds a little childish but the edge of the stage is a very important spot, almost a holy place for a dancer.
You mean the place where audience goes into stage or the whole periphery of the stage, including the walls (or curtains)?
The walls as well, it's like going to the place where you go from light to darkness, where the eyes meet each other. You could call it a flat screen. Touching these fragile edges. It has to do with the edges of different dimensionalities.
My work is always an exercise in reduction. Marie as a person happens to be the opposite, she is basically a wild animal. At the same time she is interested in the qualities of my work, and this is where we find each other. This resistance creates an interesting tension within her body and in her eyes. The very basic movements become so difficult, not only because of their simplicity but also because of the really killing follow spots in her eyes that makes every step a risk.
To me here lays the essence of performance art: creating a journey through these fields, both physical and mental, which i design for the dancer.
and for the audience
You have a broad choreographic practice, spanning over different formats such as black box pieces, interventions in museums, in open air, ... how do these smaller scaled formats relate to your black box stage pieces?
I would call them chapters of the same story.
Could you find another word for story?
These stories are proposals, suggestions with a sense of history, and with a sense of destiny or direction.
Let me think... Sometimes you look at a dance piece and you know from the first five minutes where it's gonna end, or what it's gonna be.
I'm rather interested in this zone where there is a possibility for something else to arise. Like in minimal and repetitive music. You know its gonna be the same for ever and ever but it COULD change with one snap! The power of suggestion and creating possibilities, this is a very rich field. It's about teasing and tickling the mind and creating expectations. And this is a very important aspect in Feldmans' music: it continues forever. And when you think it's finished, he continues even more for half an hour.
It is about dealing with proportion and expectations: giving a twist to a certain expectation and by doing so you get a different outcome.
In a way it's related to how Martin Margiela or Comme des Garçons cuts a dress. You think you recognize the dress as such, but there is a twist, a different cut and you can never be sure. It has to do with cutting and patterns...
Actually Feldman's titles are full of references to textiles and carpets:
Crippled Symmetry, Patterns in a Chromatic Field,... There you go, it is all about COMPOSITION.
There is this sense of desire to deal with regular things in a different way. I am not interested in inventing strange or even interesting movements; to me it's rather about giving a twist to familiar movements.
It makes you uncomfortable for a moment and in this zone
things can happen for you?
Yes, there you put it very clearly.

Enhanced Box Score: Brewers 2, Cubs 4 – August 13, 2014
[Thanks to everyone who stopped by tonight to say hey – it was awesome to meet all of you, and definitely marked the high point of my evening. Which wasn't easy, given the fun of the game.]
Within one game, Tsuyoshi Wada showed the good and the bad of what he can be: for six innings, he was deeply effective, keeping Brewers hitters off balance, and inducing a high volume of easy fly balls. In the seventh inning, he gave up back-to-back home runs, which is the kind of thing that'll happen when you allow that kind of contact regularly.
All in all, though, it was a good outing, and, fortunately for the Cubs, they did a little back-to-backing of their own …

School bans 'hazardous' swim goggles!June 5th, 2009 - 2:32 pm ICT by ANI
London, June 5 (ANI): A school has banned children from wearing goggles during swimming lessons - claiming they are hazardous.
Teachers and governors at Ysgol Bryn Coch junior school, in Mold, north Wales, said claimed they are a "hazard and can cause permanent eye injury".
Parents described the ruling as "bonkers", reports The Daily Star.
And lifeguard trainer Tom Ingram said it could stop children developing their swimming.
He said: "In 10 years of training lifeguards and watching pools I have never known an injury from a pair of goggles.
"In fact, it may be worse for kids not to wear goggles as it will stop them developing their stroke, make them strain their necks and leave their eyes exposed to the pool chemicals."
Three children have been pulled out of swimming lessons in protest at the ruling.
But one parent fumed: "Why do councils allow children to wear them in public swimming pools if they are so dangerous?
"Why has the school taken this ridiculous stance? It's health and safety gone mad."
The advice has been issued by the British Association of Advisors and Lecturers in Physical Education.
Headteacher Lynne Williams insisted: "It has been recognised that goggles can pose a real risk to children and this has been accepted by the governors." (ANI)

Time to Absorb: A Few Good Books and Some Learning
Two decades ago in college, at the same time that I was introduced to the Internet, I read Information Anxiety by Richard Saul Wurman. Since then devices for delivery of digital information have exploded. I've had to train myself to sense the onset of real anxiety from too much "byte"-sized consumption.
You may have experienced times like these. Some of my online friends retreat and disappear for a while. Some announce they are on a Facebook break. I don't write Internet hate posts, unplug completely from my computer or even turn off my social networks, although I may participate less.
But when I notice this information anxiety in me, I do shift how and what I consume. Otherwise, it would stall my creative process and my ability to add anything of value.
This isn't a post about the Internet or restricting media. Instead, It's about noticing personal cues within ourselves and making room for seasonal shifts—whether that's a shift in daily routines or larger goals—that help us reach deeper and gain perspective, real perspective about ourselves and other people.
An artistic friend once told me she moves between phases—times to create and times to take life in, learning and absorbing.
Maybe it is the children going back to school, the break between projects, or the literal change of season outside that brought this about for me right now, but I've spent some time this month and last focused on immersing myself in-depth into the creative works of others. So what have I taken in, learned and absorbed?
Melissa Dalton Bradford took me on a trip around her world with her memoir Global Mom: Sixteen Addresses, Eight Countries, FIve Languages, One Family. Better yet, I took her with me on my first ever audiobook to the elliptical, to the carpool line and to my own island in the kitchen. Who wouldn't want a Global Mom as a traveling companion?
She explored topics where I wanted to travel—connecting with people who are different, overcoming anxieties in learning and new situations, and healing from loss. Melissa is a writer who embraces a richness of language that is often forced out of us these days. Her detail of fiction-like descriptions (think "driver seat anthropologist") aided my visual journey with her to Norway, Paris, Munich, Singapore. And listening to her own narration encouraged me to revive metaphors not only in my writing but in my life again.
The conclusion wraps up her experience with a concept that just fascinates me—how our individual stories weave into the stories of others, making us interconnected in the fabric of history, a history that replenishes.
Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford was another adventure into a time and place—Seattle during World War II—that continued my learning about getting along with those of different cultures, backgrounds or even personalities. While the story was about a relationship between two Chinese and Japanese school children at the time of the Japanese American Internment camps, the story became my own as I identified ways that I, too, can be more open to and accepting of differences. The story moves between time periods of the 1940s and the 1980s. That back and forth made me wish for a similar view of our own life stories, which isn't one we often get to see, but I plan to embark on a journal reading session in my near future. By the way, I loved the ending.
In a little detour from reading and listening, I have a confession—I've watched a lot of Hallmark movies, even in the middle of the day. I know, they are sentimental and sometimes silly, but the diversion has been a backdrop for some deep cleaning spurts, so I can justify it. In the mix of clean romances and family-friendly dramas I realized something about myself–I can now enjoy a a less than perfect performance. My idealism and impatience for perfection is cooling and allowing me to laugh and smile and relax with my own flaws without thinking that those weaknesses ruin the outcome. Important purposes can still be met with fragmented or mediocre implementation. You never know where you might find something great, like I did on the Hallmark Channel with the movie version of a favorite book, Mitch Albom's Have a Little Faith.
I'm ending my foray into other's creative expression with the audiobook of The Evolution of Thomas Hall by Kieth Merrill. I'm not an instant fan of audiobooks in general. I am a visual person and like to see the words and create the image in my mind, even going back and reviewing that image again for further clarity. In this book I found the narration detracted from my ability to add my own framework as a reader to this story.
While the audiobook wasn't my favorite, I will definitely revisit this book in the written form since I am deeply immersed in the main character's process of conversion.Thomas is an artist who moves from a self-centered state to one in which he is not only aware of others but begins to experience genuine connections and relationships that spring from love and compassion, not self-interest.
From all of these creative works, I sense a paradox about relationships with others. We need the communication, information, connections, activities and means to interact, learn from, love and serve others. But to do this in a meaningful way, we also need to prepare ourselves individually to participate. And that requires some deep and meaningful alone time—some time to withdraw to ponder, reevaluate, gain perspective, pray, believe and allow ourselves to change.
When I get to this point, that is when I can really create. In the Evolution of Thomas Hall, Merrill writes, "From his earliest days as an artist, Thomas had recognized that the joy of creation was the process, not the results–the state of creative conciseness where reality ceased to exist."
This process of both conversion and creation may appear to be very much our own. But again, we live in that overloaded information age, where we can't help but be influenced by and influence others.
Honestly, it doesn't matter how much we draw from or add to that stream. The joy we receive from both absorbing and producing has a place in the ever-flowing river of information that continues to flow by us like the public feeds of a social network.
Focusing in and selecting with a discerning eye, we can pluck out some wonderful words and ideas that will enrich us. And with thoughtful consideration about how, when and what we contribute to the current, our creations might be as simple as one more friendship, a needed act of service or even simply a genuine moment of deeper understanding.

It is true that German researchers studies these constituents extensively during the 1980s, and even obtained a patent for an injectable preparation of echinacea polysaccharides. What is usually missing in the textbooks is the information that these constituents are insoluble in the amount of alcohol that is present in an herbal tincture. Thus, these are not present in most of the echinacea preparations that have been used in medicine.
The flip side of this legend is that actual polysaccharide preparations of echinacea -- teas made by long decoction (most polysaccharides are soluble in hot water)-- are very potent medicines. Most contemporary echinacea use is in the form of the alcoholic tinctures. Indeed abundant research shows that alcohol soluble constituents are active in stimulating immunity. But these constituent are not the -only- active components any more than polysaccharides are. I and several physician-colleagues have been using strong decoctions of echinacea for the last several years -- 1/2 to 1 cups of cut-and-sifted Echinacea angustifolia in 1-2 quarts of water, simmered for 40 minutes, then strained, with a quart of the tea taken over the course of 1-2 hours. We have seen conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease, severe strep infection, kidney infection, antibiotic-resistant staph cellulitis, copperhead bite, infectious complication of oral surgery and other conditions cured rapidly with this treatment. Sometimes the crisis is overcome within a few hours. In several cases, external application of this preparation, in conjunction with the internal use, has proved very useful for serious topical infection.

This Herban Legend is based on the mistranslation of a German research article (1). The article contains a graph showing the immune activity of white blood cells. The activity appears to peak at day five, and decline back toward the baseline by day ten. The text of the article explains that the echinacea was only given for five days, a fact that eluded the originator of this Legend, which dates to the late 1980s. Other research has shown that echinacea continues to build immunity for as long as six weeks (2).

I really like your style of photography. I was wondering if you would be available to take some photos of my family this month. Either the weekend of the 16th or the 30th. We would love a beautiful outdoor setting. Some of my favorite photos of yours are the ones of Michelle and her little girl Ellie. Something similar to that would be nice. Let me know, thanks! (I would have emailed you, but the email link doesn't work on my computer).

Graduation 2015: Three recipes for a festive graduation party
Whether it's from high school or college, graduation is a time to celebrate years of hard work, wear a funny cap and gown and shamelessly eat grad-themed sweets. After all, you've earned it.
Throwing a graduation party can seem like as big of an undertaking as earning the diploma itself. With a few easy and festive recipes, you can pull off a fun party for your family and friends with food that's guaranteed to be better than a veggie tray.
- RELATED: 5 lightning fast appetizers to make this Christmas, Dec. 21, 2014
- RELATED: Easy appetizer recipe for pigs in a blanket, April 23, 2015
With these four sweet recipes, you may not even need a cake. (But if you do, here's where to get custom graduation cakes locally.)
From Lil' Luna.
You can get really creative with these bite-size treats and use school colors.
- Chocolate cake mix (If you're really in a hurry, use store-bought brownie bites.)
- Chocolate frosting
- Deluxe graham crackers (the chocolate frosted ones)
- Mini M&Ms
- Pull-and-peel licorice (choose school colors, if desired)
- Make cupcakes in mini cupcake pan. After they are done and cooled, let freeze for a few hours.
- When ready, cut off the tops of the mini cupcakes.
- Add frosting to the bottoms of the cupcakes (which will be the top). Add chocolate graham cracker on the top.
- Cut pieces of pull-and-peel licorice (about two inches) and flatten both ends.
- Pipe more frosting on the top center of the graham cracker to stick licorice to, then add more frosting on top of licorice for M&M to stick.
From Kitchen Fun with My Three Sons.
Cake pops, out. S'mores pops, in. These little pops are almost too cute to eat.
- Jumbo marshmallows
- Chocolate graham crackers
- Chocolate (for melting)
- M&Ms
- Twizzler strings
- Edible eyes
- Cookie icing
- Lollipop sticks
- Push a lollipop stick into a marshmallow.
- Melt the chocolate and dip the top of the marshmallow into it.
- Place the pops in a sheet of styrofoam or in a tall glass to stand up. Place the graham cracker on top and let sit so the chocolate dries.
- Decorate the pop with the eyes, licorice and candies to make a face.
From Land O Lakes. Makes 24 cookies.
After all, no academic regalia is complete without a diploma.
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tbsp. fresh lemon or lime juice
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup melted butter
- 1 pound vanilla almond bark
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray cookie sheets with nonstick spray. Butter the handle of a wooden spoon and set aside.
- Combine egg whites and lemon or lime juice in a bowl. Beat at high speed until foamy. Gradually add sugar until glossy, stiff peaks form. Gently stir in flour and butter.
- Spoon 2 teaspoons batter onto prepared cookie sheet; evenly spread batter to 3-inch circle. Place only 3 cookies onto each cookie sheet. (Wash cookie sheet and spray with nonstick spray for each sheetful.)
- Bake 5 to 8 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Immediately shape cookies by wrapping around the buttered handle of the spoon. Gently remove from the sheet and let cool.
