Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Israeli experts continue to caution an erroneously placated West that Iran's new president will press forward with his nation's nuclear arms program. His track record proves as much.
From the US to Europe to Russia, the international community has breathed a collective sigh of relief over the election of Hasan Rohani as Iran's new president, hailing the bearded cleric as a "moderate" leader.
But few seem to remember that Rohani previously served as Iran's chief nuclear negotiator during the term of former President Mohammed Khatami. It's true that between 2003-2005 Rohani halted Iran's uranium enrichment program, but it's also true that he started it right back up again once the immediate threat of US military intervention had passed.
That's right - Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was not, as many have wrongly come to believe, the originator of Iran's defiant nuclear program. In fact, none of these politicians are more than advisers when it comes to such important matters of state. Iran's nuclear program, and even who gets elected as president, is all ultimately under the control Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khameini and his Guardian Council.
What that means is that Iran's nuclear program will continue if Khameini says it will, and Rohani has no power to stop it, assuming he even wanted to. And that is a pretty big assumption to make, considering the man's past remarks and actions.
In 2004, Rohani advocated accelerating Iran's nuclear program to the point where the international community would have no choice but to accept it as a fact of life, as had previously happened with Pakistan.
"Rohani is a dyed-in-the-wool Khomeinist and part of the consensus on Iranian nuclear energy, which is a code word for nuclear weapons," explained Ze'ev Maghen, an Iran scholar at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies, in an interview with the Times of Israel
Nor is Rohani necessarily any friendlier toward Israel than his predecessor. In his first public address since winning the election, Rohani asserted that international sanctions against Iran had been imposed in service to Israel.
According to Maghen, Rohani is every bit as hostile toward Israel as Ahmadinejad, he simply has better style.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sought to remind everyone that Rohani had only won the election because the ayatollahs of the Guardian Council had allowed him to, meaning Rohani must, like Ahmadinejad before him, hold views that fall in line with the ayatollahs' agenda.
"We are not deluding ourselves," Netanyahu said at Sunday's cabinet meeting in Jerusalem. "We need to remember that the Iranian ruler at the outset disqualified candidates who were not in line with his extreme world view, and from among those whom he did allow, the one seen as least identified with the regime was elected. But we are still speaking about someone who calls Israel the 'great Zionist Satan.'"

Superpark 14 has officially kicked off. Windy conditions in Mammoth didn't stop the 300-plus attendees from lapping a park that epitomized the reasons that SNOWBOARDER incepted this event. The build crews from Loon Mountain, NH, Mammoth Mountain, CA and High Cascade Snowboard Camp (yeah, we mean the legendary Olympic pipe cutter Pat Melandoski and crew) worked day and night for the past week to have the features dialed and come 10 o'clock, the riders were not disappointed. Gasps were heard when cresting over the knoll that allowed a complete view of Loon's gargantuan jump. The park is one for the ages. Check the photos for further proof.
Day One is usually a mellow run or two through Superpark scoping features, checking speed and hanging out by the Gatorade tent, but I'll be damned if I didn't see Brandon Cocard backside rodeo Mammoth's massive step down and Eric Willett follow immediately behind with a backside 7. Most of the riders did take it rather easy though. As the day started winding down, the park emptied out quick. Seemed like the participants were eager to go home and rest up for tomorrow, unless that rider happens to be Andrew Hardingham. Our 2010 Superpark host, imported directly from Canada, is here to get fucked up. On and off the hill.
Just a few shredders who showed up at registration are Sage Kotsenberg, Louie Fountain, Bryan Fox, Scotty Arnold, Tyler Flanagan, Harrison Gordon, Johnnie Paxson, Jonah Owen, Scotty Lago, Tim Humphreys, Chris Carr, Peter Line, Pat Moore, Jesse Burtner, Jess Kimura, Jamie Anderson, Heikki Sorsa, Scotty Blum, Lucas Magoon, Chris Bradshaw, Aaron Biittner, Kimmy Fasani, Eric Willett, Scotty Stevens, Jussi Oksanen, Halldór Helgason, Jonas Carlson and the list goes on. That's only a small number of the hundreds of riders lapping Mammoth for the next few days. Stay tuned to snowboardermag.com for all of the exclusive videos, photos and write-ups that accompany one of the most progressive events of the year.

Each year, cervical cancer affects about 13,000 women in the United States, according to the National Cervical Cancer Coalition. It is the second most common type of cancer for women across the globe, but it also is one of the most preventable types of cancer, according to the NCCC.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other organizations continue to release new studies on cervical cancer. This month, the CDC released results of a study that found that many women who have undergone a total hysterectomy and no longer have a cervix are still getting Pap tests for cervical cancer even though they don't need to be screened. January marks Cervical Health Awareness Month. As organizations continue to focus on cervical cancer research, prevention and treatment, we asked Dr. Robert P. Flick, medical director of OB/GYN services for Mercy Health -- West Gynecology, located in Cincinnati -- whose areas of expertise include pelvic pain, disorders of the cervix and menopausal changes -- to tell you what you need to know about cervical cancer. Q: Who is most likely to get cervical cancer? A: There are a variety of age groups and a variety of risk factors that make a woman more susceptible to cervical cancer. Some of these include: having multiple sexual partners; having a sexual partner who has multiple sexual partners; having first had sexual intercourse at a young age (younger than 18); smoking; having sexually transmitted diseases; having a compromised immune system. Given the risk factors, we tend to see more abnormal pap smears in younger individuals, but cervical cancer can strike women of any age. Q: What are the causes of cervical cancer? A: Cervical cancer is associated with sexually transmitted diseases, specifically human papillomavirus (HPV). There are a number of subtypes of HPV. Some are high risk, and some are not so high risk. Q: What are the symptoms of cervical cancer? A: Often, symptoms don't occur until later in the progression of the illness, but warning signs include abnormal bleeding, spotting and watery discharge from the vagina. If you have any of these symptoms, please schedule an appointment with your gynecologist right away. Q: How is a person diagnosed with cervical cancer? A: We prefer patients to come for regular annual Pap smears. If the Pap smear comes back positive, or abnormal, we proceed with a colposcopy. This enables us to look at the cervix that's been painted with a vinegar solution with a special, high-powered microscope called a colposcope. If we see any suspicious areas, we biopsy them to determine if they are, in fact, cancerous cells. Q: What are the treatment options for cervical cancer? A: It depends on the degree of cell invasion. If the cervical cancer has not spread, we can take a conservative approach, such as performing a cold knife conization, which is a surgical procedure to remove a sample of abnormal tissue from the cervix, or a hysterectomy. For cervical cancer that has spread, it depends on where it has spread. If the cancer has invaded within the cervix or adjacent organs, we may use a combination of surgical treatment, radiation, and/or chemotherapy to treat the patient."

Atmospheric Sciences & Global Change
Research Highlights
May 2014
Water Woes Projected in U.S. Southwest
Regional water availability reductions ahead according to research that reveals spring drying trends
A dry irrigation canal illustrates one challenge presented by large shifts in spring wet and dry periods across the U.S. Southwest—reductions in water availability. Authors of this study found that the intensity of the water cycle, due to more atmospheric moisture held captive in a warming climate, leads to changes in water availability with regional impacts and implications for society's resilience to climate change. Enlarge Image.
Results: New research from scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory identified a trajectory of spring drying that will alter water availability across the U.S. Southwest. To describe the net change in water, they calculated the water gained through precipitation and subtracted the water lost through evaporation and transpiration in an ensemble of regional and global simulations. Their findings indicate future challenges for regional water resource managers and agricultural production.
"Our research identified a prominent spring drying trend over the U.S. Southwest and a seasonal migration of the wet and dry patterns," said Dr. Yang Gao, post-doctoral researcher and atmospheric scientist at PNNL. "These signals are strong and consistent across regional and global climate projections."
Why It Matters: Water in the soil, streams, and groundwater is critical for Earth ecosystems and food and energy production, so understanding and projecting how water availability is going to change in the future is a major science challenge with important societal implications. While global precipitation is projected to increase in a warmer climate, water availability is a measure determined by regional precipitation and the amount of moisture that either evaporates or is taken up by plants, called transpiration. Together, precipitation and evapotranspiration vary greatly over a region, and their changes are due to complex alterations in atmospheric circulation, soil moisture, and many other processes. The new research underscores the importance of evaluating changes in regional North American water availability and propels efforts to evaluate their implications for climate impacts and adaptation.
"Increasing greenhouse gases cause the atmosphere to hold more moisture in a warmer climate, intensifying Earth's water cycle," said Dr. Ruby Leung, PNNL Laboratory Fellow, atmospheric scientist and corresponding author on the study. "Changes in the water cycle have significant implications for water availability that challenge regional resilience to climate change."
Methods: The PNNL research team calculated changes in water availability from a multi-model ensemble of climate simulations for the present (1975-2004) and the future (2070-2099) produced by a single regional climate model and 20 global climate models used in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5). Through both model agreement and statistical significance they identified robust changes across the models. They investigated the relationships between seasonal large-scale circulation and water availability changes using regression analysis to evaluate the contributions of dynamical changes, in addition to increased moisture availability, to changes in precipitation minus evapotranspiration (P-E). Lastly, they depicted seasonal P-E changes by the seasonal timing of the dominant wet/dry trends derived from the regional and global model projections to highlight their robust features over North America.
Their research shows that seasonal changes in the large-scale circulation and increased atmospheric moisture due to warmer temperatures lead to wet/dry trends that are dominated by two distinct and opposite north-south and east-west patterns.
What's Next? The multi-model ensemble of regional and global climate simulations will be further analyzed to evaluate changes in extreme events such as heat waves and cold air outbreaks, heavy precipitation, and other climatic features important for understanding societal vulnerability to climate change in the United States.
Sponsors: The U.S. Department of Energy Biological and Environmental Research supported this research as part of the Regional and Global Climate Modeling Program and Integrated Assessment Research Program. The regional climate simulations used in the analysis received support from the PNNL Platform for Regional Integrated Modeling and Analysis (PRIMA) initiative, a PNNL Laboratory Directed Research and Development program.

Being involved in an accident can be a frightening experienced, and dealing with the insurance companies afterward can turn into a major hassle. Learning what to do in advance can help you handle a car accident in a calm way. Here are five steps to take after an accident occurs.
Following a collision, you should see if anyone has been injured, both in your vehicle and the others involved. If anyone needs medical attention, call emergency services right away.
If your car is in the middle of oncoming traffic, you'll need to move it to a safe spot on the side of the road. Put on your hazard lights to warn other drivers.
You'll need to exchange information with the other driver. Get their name, address, and insurance information. When communicating with them, be polite and avoid saying who was a fault.
It's a good idea to record the names and contact information of any witnesses to the crash. Take photographs of the crash scene with your phone if possible. Having this kind of documentation can be helpful later when the insurance company is trying to determine who was at fault.
If the other driver was at fault for the accident, it's their responsibility to report it to their insurer. However, some drivers may be reluctant to take this step, so you should get in touch with their provider and tell them the facts of what happened. You should also contact your own insurance company even if you feel you weren't responsible. Should the other driver's insurance refuse to pay for your claim, you may end up needing to file with them.
If the police were called following the accident, they'll decide who was a fault and issue a ticket. The insurance company will come to it's own conclusion about who should be held responsible. The information you gathered at the site of the crash may be useful to them in making this decision.

OROVILLE — A storage and distribution facility for agricultural chemicals in the tiny community of Nelson won tentative approval by the Butte County Board of Supervisors Tuesday.
Technically the supervisors on a 4-1 vote passed a "motion of intent" to approve the use permit for the Helena Chemical Nelson Terminal Project, with the proviso that county staff can come up with adequate answers to four concerns brought up by the board.
Garth Davis, project manager for Helena, said the proposed facility is located on 10 acres of a 26-acre parcel located North of Nelson Road, off the Midway, and east of the Union Pacific Railroad.
The facility would include a rail spur onto the Union Pacific mainline, and it would serve as a regional storage and distribution center for both liquid and dry bulk fertilizers and pesticides.
The product would be brought in by train and then repackaged and distributed by 56-foot-long trucks.
The proposal, which faces stout opposition by many local residents, was approved by county Planning Commission.
That approval in November included many conditions and required mitigation, was immediately appealed to the supervisors by the Lundberg Family Farms.
Davis said the facility would result in a net reduction in trucks on area roads because of the use of the rail deliveries. He also said the facility would include holding ponds and other protections to deal with leaks. Also the facility will be built three feet above the current grade and, according to Davis, will avoid flood problems.
Bryce Lundberg, representing the Lundberg Family Farms, said he is concerned about the proposed facilities for a number of reasons, but the most compelling was the family"s largest organic rice farm is located adjacent to the Helena property.
He said if a flood or a spill allowed fertilizers or pesticides to get into those fields, it would void the farm"s organic status for 36 months.
Lundberg also said, even if the Helena operation itself would be immune to flooding, the water running off of the property would increase flooding problems in the town of Nelson.
Numerous other opponents to the project said there should be a turning lane for trucks coming south on the Midway at Nelson Road, as well as acceleration and deceleration lanes. The people with the traffic concerns said even though the Midway through Nelson has a posted 35 mph speed limit, traffic through the tiny community regularly goes 60 to 65 mph.
Another problem identified by several people was the possibility that the heavy trucks that would come up Highway 99 and take Nelson Road from there west to the Helena facility.
Some community residents simply said Nelson was the wrong place for the operation.
Supervisor Steve Lambert, whose 4th District includes Nelson and the proposed project, said Helena, a nationwide company, "wants to be a good neighbor." At the same time he too felt something had to be looked at concerning turning lane option.
The use permit already has a condition prohibiting trucks using Nelson Road as an access from Highway 99, but Lambert said he wanted to see some "teeth" written into the prohibition.
Lambert moved the board approve a "motion of intent" to approve the permit. The vote amounts to a tentative approval.
Tim Snellings, director of the county"s Department of Development Services, said his department was tasked to find ways to deal with the turning lane concern, guarantee there would be no manufacturing of any kind at the site, find a way to enforce the ban on truck traffic on Nelson Road west of Highway 99, and establish a review of the facility one year after it goes into operation to make sure Helena is conforming to all of the permit requirements and mitigation.
Paradise Supervisor Doug Teeter was the lone member of the panel to vote against the motion.
The measure will come back before the board sometime in late February or March for reconsideration and final vote up or down on the proposal.

Part 4: Medical Care
An excerpt from 100 Questions & Answers About HIV and AIDS, published by Jones and Bartlett Publishers, 2008. To purchase this book, click here. To read or listen to an interview with Dr. Gallant, click here.
How will I pay for medical care?
Because this book is written from a U.S. perspective, the answer is complex. We don't really have a "health care system" in this country; what you're entitled to depends on who you are, whether and where you work, and where you live. That being said, most people who need HIV care in the United States can get it. Having HIV infection entitles you to benefits that would not be available if you had some other disease. It's a far cry from universal health care, but we take what we can get!
HIV care is expensive. A year's worth of ART costs about $17,000 to $22,000 per year, not including medical visits or lab tests. Few people pay for this out of pocket. Those with private insurance are generally covered, though some insurance plans have limits on medication coverage that can be exceeded long before end of the year.
If you're uninsured, or if your insurance doesn't cover your medications, you may qualify for the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) (a federally-funded program that provides antiretroviral medications to those who have no other way to pay for them) in your state. This is a program that provides HIV medications to people who fall below a specified income level. The coverage provided by ADAP programs varies from state to state. Some states' programs are quite generous, whereas others (I won't name names, but they know who they are!) are skimpier and may have waiting lists or shorter lists of covered medications. Medical visits and lab tests are often paid for by federal Ryan White Program (a government-funded program that provides money on a state or local level to provide care for uninsured people with HIV infection) funds that are received by some HIV providers or treatment centers. Finally, people with HIV infection may qualify for Medicaid (an insurance program funded by the federal and state governments that provides coverage for medical care to low-income, uninsured people) or Medicare (a federally funded program to provide medical insurance primarily to the elderly and disabled), depending on income, assets, and the degree of disability.
The complexities of insurance, benefits, and entitlements vary too much and change too quickly for me to be able to do justice to them in this book. My advice is to talk to an HIV-savvy case manager or social worker, and find out where you stand. You can find a case manager or social worker at HIV clinics and AIDS service organizations.

THURSDAY, Dec. 29 (HealthDay News) -- Loren Booda experienced his first psychotic break when he was 19 years old.
Then a sophomore studying physics at an Ivy League university, Booda had struggled with feelings of anxiety and depression for years. He said he'd self-medicated by drinking and smoking marijuana. But then he tried LSD, and all of the demons that had been gnawing at his soul for years burst forth and took over his life.
"The LSD basically brought out all of the symptoms of mental illness that I'd grown accustomed to," said Booda, now 52 and living in Arlington, Va.
He eventually was diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder, an illness that combines psychotic symptoms with mood disturbances.
During that first psychotic break, Booda said, he heard voices that weren't there and became increasingly paranoid. He also experienced his first brush with the stigma associated with mental illness when the school asked him to leave after doctors first diagnosed him as a paranoid schizophrenic, a diagnosis that others refined later in his life.
"Once I was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, people like that supposedly do not study at an Ivy League school or live on campus or participate in the university," Booda said.
He ended up living a life apart. His parents had enough money that he didn't have to work, Booda said, so he spent most of his time working volunteer jobs. He got a bachelor's degree in physics from George Washington University, but he's never worked in that field.
"A lot of times I think a volunteer job can be ideal, in that people are able to overlook disabilities," he said.
He volunteered for an energy company, for the Boy Scouts and for Goodwill Industries. "Finally, for 17 years, I worked at a park and worked my way up to the point where I could operate the park and nature area," Booda said.
Booda said he tried to get paying jobs, but his diagnosis often got in the way. He remembers one boss, who ended up becoming a good friend, treating him as though he wasn't suitable for the job.
"I worked for him two to six weeks," Booda said. "I was paid at the end of that period, and he said to me, 'Loren, you work better when you're not paid.' What kind of comment is that? It was hurtful."
Booda now works as a call-taker at the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), where he started as a volunteer in 1995 and began being paid for his work in 2003. He receives treatment for his illness, which includes taking four different medications, he has a girlfriend and steady work and tends to look on the bright side when it comes to his condition.
"My illness has given me an opportunity to work in places I might not otherwise have," he said. "I've been with my girlfriend for about nine years. I have two new cats, and they're knocking everything over hither and yon."
"And my work with NAMI -- I relish it," Booda said. "It's like a sustenance. I am making a difference."

Talented tennis professional Novak Djokovic was just another promising 12-year-old kid in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, when NATO planes started relentlessly bombing the area in the spring of 1999. Over three months time, hardly a day went without something blowing up, and young Djokovic would sleep with his family in his grandfather's basement because it was safer there.
But good news! Intense bombing runs meant no school, which meant more time to do non-school things, like play tennis.
Because we were waking up every single night more or less at two, three a.m. for two and a half months. ... But the best thing about it ... I always try to remember those days in a positive, in a very bright way ... we didn't need to go to school and we played more tennis.
Here's a brief teaser clip of the segment, which airs this Sunday night on CBS.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — This is where the coaching carousel business starts to get a little silly.
The Grizzlies are coming off the greatest overall season in franchise history which included their first trip to the Western Conference finals. They have a solid roster and an excellent coach in Lionel Hollins, who has publicly expressed his desire to stick around and try to take the Grizzlies to that next level.
"Hopefully, I will be here," Hollins said. "I love the guys. I love this city and the fans and everybody associated with the team. But we've got to be very, very realistic in what the future holds."
When a man speaks like that, you have to wonder what's not being said. What's the hold up for the Grizzlies?
The Grizzlies are not going to publicly negotiate with their soon-to-be free-agent coach. And Hollins would be wise to use whatever leverage he has to get the deal he wants (and deserves). There are, after all, only four coaches in the league who can say they took their team to the postseason's final four.
While a handful of teams around the league, including the Brooklyn Nets and Los Angeles Clippers (L.A. owner Donald Sterling was reportedly at Game 1 of the Western Conference finals observing Hollins) are searching for the right coaching fit or the next Hollins or Frank Vogel, the Grizzlies have the guy that fits perfectly with their roster under contract until June 30.
If it's just numbers they are dealing with in the negotiations, fine. Both sides want the best deal possible, and there's still time to haggle over details. But if there is more going on here, if there are some philosophical differences between Hollins, Grizzlies CEO Jason Levien and his front-office staff, there is no telling where things are headed.
If the Grizzlies think that a different coach can get the same things out of Zach Randolph, Marc Gasol, Mike Conley and the rest of a team that, up until being swept by the San Antonio Spurs, looked like a team built to compete for a championship, they better be sure.
Proven commodities in the coaching ranks don't always pan out in every situation (just ask the Los Angeles Lakers how that Mike D'Antoni thing is working out). Hollins has already shown what he's made of. He didn't take over an elite team, but the Grizzlies have become exactly that under his stewardship.
Why anyone would want to tinker with that chemistry, with that tangible success, is beyond me!
Hollins wants to stay in Memphis. He loves his team, the city and the direction the franchise is heading in with the new ownership and management.
Sounds like a slam dunk.
What's the hold up?

|Bay (and the adjacent shore)
|General Information
|Far East of Middle-earth
|Bay (and the adjacent shore)
|Bay and shore
|Quendi, Avari
|Images of Cuiviénen
|By Ardamir. (Help; more articles)
Cuiviénen (Q, pron. N [ˌkuɪviˈeːnen], V [ˌkuɪβiˈeːnen]) was a bay on the shore of the inland Sea of Helcar in the far east of Middle-earth and by extension, the land where the Quendi or Elves awoke.[1]
Eru first awoke the Elves there in approximately 1050 of the Years of the Trees. From the first they were divided into three groups: the Minyar, Tatyar, and Nelyar. They dwelt in Cuiviénen for more than five hundred years of the sun before the first sundering. Many of the Elves, particularly of the Minyar and Tatyar, journeyed west to Valinor and, if they did not tarry in Middle-earth, saw its light and became known as the Eldar. Those who remained were called the Avari, the unwilling, for they did not desire to see the beauty of that land, but preferred the starlight of Cuiviénen.
It is unknown how long the Avari remained at Cuiviénen during the First Age, but it is certain that the Sea of Helcar ceased to exist after the War of Wrath. The fate of its inhabitants is unknown.
The Quenya name Cuiviénen (cuivië "awakening" + nen "water") means "water of awakening".[source?]

Design Awards in Southampton
The American Institute of Architects' Peconic Chapter will present an exhibit of architecture and an architectural design awards program at the Southampton Cultural Center on Saturday.
The presentation of the Daniel Rowen F.A.I.A. Memorial Design Awards will be followed by a symposium led by the jurors and a discussion of the projects with the audience. The jury for the awards consists of John Belle, Mark Simon, and Carl Stein, all fellows of the institute
On display will be exhibits from projects in Bridgehampton, Amagansett, Southampton, Sagaponack, East Hampton, Riverhead, Bellport, Quogue, Greenport, Southold, Water Mill, and Sag Harbor.
The exhibit will be open from 5:30 to 9 p.m. on Saturday and begin with a reception.
Watermill's New Residents
This week, the Watermill Center announced its fall 2011 and spring 2012 residencies. This is the fifth year that the center will conduct this program, which invites artists to further their performance works in a home and laboratory environment. So far, 72 artists have taken up residency there in terms lasting up to six weeks.
More than 180 artists applied for the 17 openings and were selected by a committee of artists and academics from various disciplines. The names of the individuals and groups chosen from other countries are Shirin Neshat and Abbas Akhavan from Iran, Alli Avital Tsypin and Krymov Lab from Russia, Shahryar Nashat and Adam Linder from Switzerland and Germany, Catarina de Oliveira and Camilla Willis from Portugal and the United Kingdom, The Wet Weather Ensemble from Australia, Theo Adams Company from the U.K., Katharina Schmitt from Germany, Melati Suryodarmo from Indonesia, Halldór Úlfarsson, Davyde Wachell, and Davio Brynjar Franzon from Iceland, and from the United States, Daniel Knox, the Lincoln Center Directors Lab, Anna Telcs, Samita Sinha, Tristan Perich and Argeo Ascani, and Christopher Williams.
Works are presented to the public in free showcases throughout the term. The selection committee includes Marina Abramovic, John Rockwell, Jonathan Safran Foer, Alanna Heiss, Robert Wilson, and a wide range of international artists and academics.
Body of Work Returns
To Ashawagh
"Body of Work VI," a collection of figurative work by a group of contemporary artists, will return to Ashawagh Hall this weekend with a reception on Saturday from 5 to 8 p.m.
The core group of artists includes Rosalind Brenner, John Capello, Michael Cardacino, Bob Markell, Bill Negron, Frank Sofo, and Margaret Weissbach, and in this show three new exhibitors will be added into the mix — Michael A. Butler, Terri Kennedy, and Cynthia Loewen.
While the artists choose the figure as a subject, for many it is merely a starting off point for a more reflective and personal expression of it, as in Ms. Brenner's painting. Others may maintain fealty to the form, but arrive at it in a more abstract way, such as the stippling Ms. Loewen employs in her work. Still others build forms of found objects, perhaps incorporating a bust in an unusual way as Ms. Kennedy does in a piece called "Maudie."
The exhibit will be on view Saturday through Sunday.

Arsene Wenger has praised Arsenal's performance and victory over Reading, and has backed his side to continue their good form in the race for a Champions League berth.
The Gunners notched a third consecutive Premier League win as they overcame the Royals, who sit bottom of the Premier League table, and the French manager believes all the momentum is with his side as the north London club push for a top-four finish.
"I'm very happy because it keeps our momentum going. The confidence looks to be there, and you could see when the confidence is there, we can play quality football," he told the club's official wesbite.
"Let's keep that spirit, that attitude, that confidence, and we have a great chance. We want to do it and I'm confident we will.
"We had a good performance. We were technically sound and had a good balance between mastering the possession and being incisive."
But Wenger bemoaned his side's profligacy in the first half, with Gervinho scoring the only goal of a dominant opening 45 minutes, and the Frenchman felt his side should have been out of sight by the half-time whistle.
"The only regret we had at half-time is that we didn't score the chances we created and that we didn't get the penalty we deserved," Wenger continued.
"But we scored the second goal straight after coming out for the second half and then it was quite comfortable."
The win leaves the Gunners in fifth place, just two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, but Wenger is focussing only on making sure his own team can continue playing well.
"We have one target, to win our games," added the Arsenal boss. "You cannot always look around you and see what the other teams do. Just play well and win your games. The best way to win games is to play well."

An elite team of 19 firefighters died Sunday while trying to protect themselves under fire-resistant shields from a fast-moving wildfire in Yarnell, Ariz., according to officials.
Authorities believe the wildfire began in Yarnell, about 90 miles northwest of Phoenix, Friday with a lightning strike and spread to at least 2,000 acres Sunday amid triple-digit temperatures, low humidity and windy conditions. As of 3 a.m. this morning, the Yarnell fire had tripled in size and is now 6,000 acres, according to Arizona incident commander Mike Reichling.
Eighteen of the victims were from the Prescott Granite Mountain Hotshots, fire officials said. It's unclear where the other victim was based.
"We grieve for the family. We grieve for the department. We grieve for the city," Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo said at a Sunday night news conference. "We're devastated. We just lost 19 of some of the finest people you'll ever meet."
The 19 deaths is the greatest loss of life for firefighters in a wildfire since 1933, according to the National Fire Protection Association.
It is also the deadliest day for U.S. firefighters since 9/11, when 340 died.
The team was known as a "hotshot" crew and was deployed to attack the fire line with tools.
"Hotshot" crews are elite firefighters who often hike for miles into the wilderness with chain saws and backpacks filled with heavy gear to build lines of protection between people and fires. They remove brush, trees and anything that might burn in the direction of homes and cities.
"They're not the people that have engine companies and large trucks. These are the core of firefighting where they're right there in the middle of the incident," Fraijo said.
Fraijo said the crew killed in the Yarnell fire worked other wildfires in recent weeks in New Mexico and Arizona.
He added that the firefighters had to deploy the tent-like structures when "something drastic" occurred.
"One of the last fail-safe methods that a firefighter can do under those conditions is literally to dig as much as they can down and cover themselves with a protective -- kind of looks like a foil type, fire-resistant material -- with the desire, the hope, at least, is that the fire will burn over the top of them and they can survive it," Fraijo said.
The Prescott-based crew never had to use shelters during a wildfire, according to a 2012 profile in a Cronkite News Service report.
Reichling, the incident commander, said half of the 500 structures in Yarnell have been destroyed by the "radical weather." Most of Yarnell's 700 residents have been forced to evacuate.
"We have fires throughout the state right now. We have the winds that change. That's what happened today and caused this tragedy," he said.
Evacuee Don Mason said, "I don't know if my home's standing or not, but from what I've heard, most of Yarnell has burned to the ground. So it's been tough."
About 200 firefighters are fighting the wildfire, which has also forced the closure of parts of state Route 89. None of the fire is contained.
President Obama, who is traveling in Africa, released a statement early this morning, calling the 19 firefighters "heroes" for putting "themselves in harm's way to protect the lives and property of fellow citizens they would never meet."
Former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords expressed her shock on Twitter, calling the death of the firefighters "absolutely devastating news."
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said in a statement, "This is as dark a day as I can remember. It may be days or longer before an investigation reveals how this tragedy occurred, but the essence we already know in our hearts: fighting fires is dangerous work."
Brewer said she would travel to the area later today.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

But, For Mine Own Part, it Was Greek to Me.
There are billions - perhaps more - of stories apparently unfolding, both in imagination and in "real life", both symbolically and naturally. (A trillion here, a trillion there, and pretty soon you're talking about some real numbers.) You are all the stories, without having to know the details of the unfolding; they can be imagined. Upon the still crucible of you - of what is you, most you, fundamentally you, your existence - turns the whole universe, and everything that enquiry and imagination can fathom; all infinite parallel universes, all concepts of nothingness and bliss, all feelings of alienation and belonging, all answers and all questions; on that still point, your being, the Dreidel of existence, spins all creation and negation. It is all, contains all, and simply is. That is what you are. You are everything. Now.
Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Cafe was a delightful surprise from Fanny Flagg, the writer, who seemed to be mainly a pone-talkin' panelist on MatchGame in the 70's and 80's. The family watched this together at the villa in Crete and, despite the warmth, beauty and calorific food all around, the film was one of the highlights of our holiday. Kathy Bates, again, takes what is given to her and does her absolute best; her performances are so assured that they seem to be equally parody and homage, whether it be in Misery or The Water Boy (she must have needed some money to take on the latter film!). Even the most "enlightened" amongst us can enjoy a bit of earthy retribution. Towanda!

Driving would be much more fun if everyone had a dodgem car. I'm ashamed to admit I've never eaten a fried green tomato. Is it good? What spices are required?

Hey Suzanne...Welcome back. God...the kids are 'adorable'....I'm sure they'd love that description. Is that you in the upper left hand corner? Great depiction of wild abandon...as was the car crunching. That must've been soooo much fun.

Hi GB, they're great, a bit tart, and need to be fried until nice and soft inside a thin crust of flour. Just flour, fine cornmeal, salt, pepper and a deep fat fryer - Southern-fried Nirvana is reached.

Hi Leslie, yes, they're at the stage where "adorable" would be met with rolling eyeballs. Wild abandon is great, but takes a LOT of energy!

Hi Suzanne
When I thought (jealously!) of you and your family (beautiful!) on the isle of Crete, I kept wondering, Can they see off-shore drilling platforms there? There was a time when you couldn't see them from the Gulf Coast but now you can. I've never been to the Mediterranean.

Hi Brenda, no, just blue blue sea.
- 30 July 2010 at 14:54
LOVE it when they roll the eyeballs. That's the best part.

Hey Leslie, I love it when they dispute every statement, no matter how minor. Talk about duality!
- 31 July 2010 at 06:23
Hi Suzanne,
In my youth - some 45 years ago - it felt more the other way round: Adults were constantly making mountains out of molehills and endlessly concerning themselves with matters they shouldn't. And then I became a rebel. ;-)
Bye the way, did you get back to England all right before the lorry driver's strike hit Greece?

Hi Suzanne...one of my all time favorite movies - thank you for the reminder that Towanda too is that which is.

Hi Burghard, whatever the kids do, they do it to reinforce their otherness...egos being honed. And there's nothing wrong with it. And the lorry strike started the day we left, but it didn't effect us at all - the rental Suzuki Jimny had a full tank of gas.

Hi Tapestry, it's a good film alright, full of female energy. I read that it's a favourite film of lesbians...although I have to admit, that didn't really occur to me when seeing Idgy and Ruth's unfolding relationship. Lotta rules for social conformity in the American South of the 30's!
