She teaches courses on urban food systems and environmental policy as a part -time faculty member in the Environmental Studies and Food Studies and Environmental Policy and Sustainability Management programs at The New School. She is also a lecturer at Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies. Reynolds' current research centers on urban agriculture and social justice. Her recent book Beyond the Kale: Urban Agriculture and Social Justice Activism in New York City (2016; University of Georgia Press' Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation series; coauthored with Nevin Cohen) examines the work of farmers and gardeners using urban food production to dismantle oppression in food and environmental systems. Two goals of the book are: to highlight the work of people of color and working class people in New York's urban agriculture system; and to help create new collaborations between academic researchers and community-based activists. Dr. Reynolds has worked with many community-based non-profit organizations and family farms through her research and teaching. These include: La Finca del Sur in the South Bronx; EcoStation:NY, BK Farmyards, and Hattie Carthan Community Garden in Brooklyn; Harlem Grown in Manhattan; and Soul Fire Farm in upstate New York, where she serves on the board of directors of the Soul Fire Farm Institute. She also consults on food systems curriculum development and program evaluation. From 2013-2015 she played a key role in developing a first-of-its-kind associate in science degree program in Food Studies at Hostos Community College (a part of the City University of New York and located in the South Bronx). She is currently leading participatory evaluation with several community-based organizations, including Groundwork Hudson Valley (NOAA-funded and USDA-funded urban food systems and climate literacy projects) in Yonkers, New York and Soul Fire Farm in upstate New York.

text: In this book, Alperovitz questions the United States' decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Drawing upon extensive research and study of source materials, he suggests that Japan was close to surrender and that leading military and civilian officials advised President Truman of viable alternatives to the bomb. The author places much blame for the results on the incoming secretary of state at the time, James F. Byrnes, whom he claims convinced Truman and his advisors that the bomb would be an important diplomatic tool in dealing with the Soviets.

South Shore - Bull Shoals Lake, Arkansas - a great place to visit; a better place to live!
Welcome to the South Shore of Bull Shoals
Lake in the beautiful Arkansas Ozark Mountains. Our region lies along the southern shore of Arkansas' largest lake. Bull Shoals Lake was formed in the early 1950's when massive Bull Shoals Dam was built to help control White River basin flooding and to generate electricity.
Bull Shoals Lake covers over 45,400 acres. Water enthusiasts enjoy the clean, open lake for swimming, skiing, and boating while anglers enjoy the lake's abundance of bass, catfish, crappie, and bream. The world-famous White River also runs through the South Shore region drawing anglers for its trophy trout.
There are numerous U.S. Army Corps of Engineers parks, campgrounds, and boat launch ramps along the lake shore. Campers, fishermen, and families appreciate the excellent facilities of the Bull Shoals-White River State Park and the James A. Gaston Visitor's Center overlooking the dam, the lake, and river. On Crooked Creek, near Yellville, is the Fred Berry Conservation Education Center. Buffalo National River Park with canoeing, camping, trail rides, and hiking trails lies in the southern portion of the region. Just to the north is Branson, Missouri, America's family entertainment capital.
Attractions throughout the South Shore region are natural - the scenic land, clean air, pure waters, and friendly people. Come enjoy the area, learn about our history, and stay for a visit or for a lifetime.

There are conflicting reports as to whether Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi has softened the decree in which he exempted all of his decisions from judicial review. A television network allied with his party said Morsi has agreed that most of his actions will be subject to review by the courts after all. But Reuters later reported that a Morsi spokesman said the initial decree has not been amended in any way.
This much is for sure, though: if Morsi did soften his decree, it was no thanks to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney said today that Obama has not spoken to Morsi about the Muslim Brotherhood man's power grab. Nor would Carney even say that Obama condemns it.

Sometimes, instead of saying "could/can" or "would/will" (the two most common I've heard), some people say "could/can do" or "would/will do".
Instead of:
I don't know if it can.
I sometimes (but uncommonly) hear:
I don't know if it can do.
Say them with a mild emphasis on the italicized can and you'll be saying it as I hear it.
As this is a little hard to express to someone who has never come across it before, I hope someone who sees this knows what I mean. Why is that extra "do" sometimes used?
Additional note: Here are three examples that in jwpat7's opinion may be similar to or represent what Daniel δ refers to:
I have never crossed the Himalayas, though I might have done. - Christopher Hughes, 2006
...when I could get a vote for Mr. Charlesworth, I did do. ... I made no regular canvass, [but] where I could get a vote, I did do. - Slade testimony, 13487-8, 1860

Hearing from Chekhov
The Letters of Anton Chekhov
The Letters of Anton Chekhov
The mark of genius is an incessant activity of mind. Genius is a greed for more. By the time of his death from tuberculosis when he was in his early forties, Chekhov had spent himself in every breathless minute, not only in the writing of his hundreds of stories, his plays, and his research on the convict island of Sakhalin—where he even took a census—but in exhausting work as a doctor, a founder of clinics and hospitals, schools and libraries, as the practical manager for many years of a small estate, as an indefatigable traveler in Russia, Europe, and Asia.
From the age of nineteen he supported his family—a bankrupt despotic father, his fretful mother, a string of bickering relatives and hangers-on—mainly by his writing, under knock-about domestic conditions which were farcically at variance with what a serious artist is supposed to need. He appointed himself—even at nineteen—head of this tribe, who were "depressed by the abnormality of living together" and who were people (he said in one of his letters) "pasted together artificially." They were touchy, lazy, talkative, noisy, pretentious, and incurably hard up. Simply to listen to the noise they made drove him to despair and made him dizzy. (He could lose his temper too.) They hung on to the precocious son like leeches—and by mixing his pride with his comic sense, he hectored and coughed them into order. Although he was broad and strong as a young man, he was soon in bad health; he is the classic case of the doctor and consumptive who refuses to admit his case and neglects it.
On top of all this, Chekhov found time to write over 4,000 vivid letters, many of them merry, many of great literary importance, to critics, editors, novelists, friends, and to women who were in love with him and whom he was evading. The notion of the melancholy, passive, defeated Chekhov vanishes when one considers these letters alone, and especially when one meets the candor, spontaneity, the humor sharp as horse radish, and the intimacy of his correspondence. The man is alive to the tips of his fingernails and has the knack all good letter writers have of springing in person before the reader's eyes. In letters a writer projects a large number of impromptu disguises, and, since he was often secretive in a self-preserving way, we do not get the whole of Chekhov—whatever that was—but we always see him in the hour he is living through.
A few of Chekhov's letters were published soon after his death. They were followed by a six-volume edition edited by his sister, who adored him though she did make decorous cuts. There followed some of his letters to his wife, the actress Olga Knipper, whom he married in the last years of his life. In 1948-1951 an official Soviet collection appeared and was revised and expanded in 1963-1964 to…

The sun is out, the clouds packed off on holiday for a few days and suddenly the UK is transformed from polar ice cap to that lush green and pleasant land that we all remember from last year. Long may it last.
One of the best ways to enjoy the weather to its full is, of course, to make sure you're out in it for as much of the day as possible and what better way to do that, get fit and save money at the same time than by cycling to work and back each day?
So, if you're looking to get yourself kitted out to make sure that you've got all the bags, accessories and ways and means of protecting yourself on the road, then take a look at what Pocket-lint considers to be the best cycling to work gear and gadgets around.
Brompton P6R folding bike (£870)
Easily mistaken for a child's bike at first glance, the appeal of models like the Brompton P6R are three-fold. As well as taking up zero space at home in hallways, and especially well-suited to those living in an upstairs flat, folding bikes are ideal for taking on public transport and can be stored securely under a desk at work. This one's got six gears (just about enough to cope with hills and for making good progress on the flats); there's a handy, dependable rear rack; and some lower grips on the handlebars that mimic a racing bike.
Although we were impressed by both this P-Type Brompton's build quality and a comfy commute in our test, its success hinges on fold-ability. After some practice, we got it down to a tee and managed to get the P6R up and riding in a touch under two minutes. It does take a few attempts to get it right since there's an order to each lever flick and fold that can't be deviated from. Carrying it is fine in theory, though it does weigh around 12kg, so gaoling it down to the Northern Line isn't quite as easy as it seems.
Orator jacket (£250)
Brompton also makes a light brown cord Oratory Jacket - turn-up the collar and unzip a hidden back panel flap to reveal some very reflective material that's handy on the commute. It's very comfy and water-repellent and its styling could be handy if you need to appear smart at work and don't want to carry extra clothes.
There's also a certain dapper air to its design that might even be enough to get you a few looks on your travels through the trendier parts of town.
Ortlieb Waterproof Office Bag Plus QL3 (£108)
About the size of a briefcase, but with more width, less depth and slightly less length, the QL3 appears to have been designed with the dimensions of a laptop in mind, though there is an optional sleeve available for those traveling to work with tech. That's a wise move indeed and, though we love the organiser on the inner wheel side and the full pocket opposite, we're not sure about the credit card slots in the organiser panel. Not in Britain, anyway.
The top folds in and over on itself and clicks into a buckle at each end, which takes a bit of puzzling out. The rack fits on to a carrier and is easy and quick to clip the bag on to. A neat release action is built into the straps of the handle, and as you pull that handle up it withdraws the holding tabs in the top two locators, allowing you to lift it off in one movement. With easily enough room for a couple of folders, a laptop and some lunch, the QL3 is more than a match for any backpack.
Tubus Vega Rear Pack (£71.48)
Well put together and manufactured to a high standard, the horizontal rack on this Tubus is quite narrow, but for good reason. The idea behind it is to carry side panniers rather than camping gear. It also gives a more streamlined look as it tapers with the wheel profile. Fitting is the usual mix of working it out for yourself and looking at the brief instructions, but it's simple enough.
We weren't totally convinced with the push-through rods that connect the front struts to the bosses on the bike below the saddle. It relies on a friction fixing under the carrier - as opposed to a solid mechanical arrangement - to maintain the attitude of the carrier. That isn't necessarily wrong.
The fixings supplied are NYLOC nuts, which have nylon inserts to stop them coming loose, and it does allow a more flexible mounting as it can adjust to the position as you need. Also the down struts, which attach to the eyelets on the wheel hub, are solid screw fixings and easily bear the weight and most of the shock and vibrational forces. Weighing just over half a kilo and capable of carrying 25kg, this is a smart-looking bit of kit that's well up to task. Comes in two sizes - 26"/28" and 29".
Magellan eXplorist 610 (£400)
The Magellan eXplorist 610 and £20 handlebar mount is lightning-quick to lock on to a satellite and re-negotiate various routes to and from work.
The screen is bright enough and the 2D or 3D presentation simple to glance at with a tough, waterproof design adding to the appeal - though the handlebar mount quaintly relies on a couple of cable-ties that don't give much confidence.
Garmin eTrex 30 Select Bundle (£230)
Dropping extras like a camera and camcorder that the eXplorist offers, the super-light Garmin eTrex 30 Select Bundle keeps it simple with a 2.2-inch display that's easy to read in direct sunlight and is complemented by a tough, waterproof design and a battery life of up to 25 hours.
Designed primarily for walkers - the barometric altimeter is the giveaway - the handlebar accessory has a similar problem as the eXplorist, but stays in place well enough.
Berghaus Limpet 10+ backpack (£44.99)
When cycling, it's best to avoid carrying baggage on your body since it tires you out and restricts movement but, if you're not ready to invest in pricey panniers, this tiny daysack from Bergahus is ideal. Although it's able to take a hydration pack in an internal elasticated pouch, we managed to get a netbook in there instead alongside and a pack of sarnies in the main compartment, with zip-up pockets both inside and out for storing phones, keys, etc.
The Limpet has excellent shoulder straps and a dual harness to keep things steady, and is slightly expandable, thanks to a U-shaped zip that stretches out the width of the bottom half. That done. It easily takes some gym kit or a jumper, too.
G-Form knee, elbow and shin pads(£39.99 each)
Getting clipped by traffic or slammed in the face by car doors is a constant worry for cyclists, but it's usually your knees, elbows and shins that bear the brunt of minor incidents. Strap-on these flexible, moulded exoskeleton impact pads for some surprisingly comfy protection with a decidedly pro feel that's, unfortunately, also reflected in the price.
Designed for mountain bikers and BMX bandits, the G-Forms absorb around 90 per cent of the energy in a fall, with the material stiffening on impact. Housed in a comfy and breathable Lycra sleeve, these pads stay in place best when worn close to the skin.
thumbsUp! Bike Signals (£24.95)
Cyclists always like being seen and these waterproof and super-bright LED indicator Bike Signals are designed to complement those crazy arm movements of yours. The control module is wireless, which makes it simple to mount on handelbars, while the indicator itself is very bright - and audible - with double arrows on each side.
The control panel is simple to understand and well designed in a tactile soft rubber body that loops over the handle bars very nicely. The size of the arrows that indicate which way a cyclist is turning aren't big enough to fully replace arm signals, and nor can they be seen from the front (crucial at junctions), so we'd advise finding a hi-vis top and not giving-up on manual signals, but these definitely make motorists take you more seriously.
Sea To Summit Pocket Towel (£10.99)
Whether you want to dry-off after a drizzly commute, recover from a puddle-in-the-face on the way to the office, or take a proper shower before you get to your desk, a pocket towel is a must-have for cyclists looking to keep gear down to a minimum.
Unlike most absorbent travel towels that have the feel of a damp dishcloth, this example from Sea To Summit uses an unusually smooth and shiny ultra-fine woven microfibre fabric that can dry-off three times its own weight in water. Best of all, this 58g towel stuffs into a small zip-up pouch that can be hooked on to the outside of a bag, or even keyring. The downside is that it measures just 40x80cm, though a bigger 60x121cm, 112g version is also available for larger frames.
Breo Pulse watch (£12)
Elsewhere in your wet weather preparation is the completely waterproof and inexpensive Breo Pulse watch which can even be worn underwater (in our test we took it up a soggy mountain, then wore it in both a swimming pool and sauna).
It's made of soft rubber, will work in temperatures down to -10 degrees and in water up to 5 atmospheres which is certainly enough for a dip in the sea or down at your local swimming pool. The Breo Pulse also happens to look quite funky in a choice of blue, black, pink or white, and it's dirt cheap too.
SealSkinz Waterproof Socks (£28)
Meanwhile, the SealSkinz mid length waterproof socks are hard to resist. Designed to be worn in warmer weather, these socks with patented technology will even keep out some chemicals and microbes - meaning that they shouldn't smell too bad once you get into the office either.
They're as useful while walking as they are when cycling and it's their three-layer construction that makes them comfy to wear and with waterproofing that stretches up all the way to the calf. Surprisingly they're breathable, too, so don't leave you with sweaty feet.
Odlo Gloves Short Endurance (£34)
Sore hands after a bumpy ride? Pressure on your hands is alleviated by a decent pair of cycling gloves like Odlo's Short Endurance, a lightweight Lycra design that offers gel pads at the two pressure points - lower thumb and at the base of the fingers - and helps absorb some of the shock from Britain's pot-holed roads.
With extra grip from the silicon print on the palm and a short finger design that might keep your pinkies chilly, but fully in control of your vehicle, these Odlos are comfy and snug thanks to a soft-touch construction and a Velcro strap around the wrist.
Vaude Discover Classic Back Pannier (£89.99)
We tested this pair of panniers with both the Brompton and a regular street bike, and found them very easy to mount and remove. You pull the handle up to release the spring-loaded clips, and simply shut them over any bike rack's frame. Measuring 42 x 33 x 18cm, the Vaude Discover Classic Back Panniers are made from a tough, coated polyester that, along with an overlaid fastened lid, makes them waterproof, with a shielded zip pocket on the outside alongside three reflective logos.
Although they're well up to spec for the commute, they won't fit an A4 file or laptop. They really come into their own for overnight cycling trips, where the drawstring-closed main compartment crushes down clothes and sleeping bags well. Best paired with Vaude's Discover Pro/Classic Front panniers if you need to load-up with gear.
Case Mate TANK iPhone case (£44.99)
There are two distinct options for phone holders here - one for those who cycle to work primarily for fitness, and another for cyclists just desperate to keep their smartphone safe. If you fall into the second category, the Case Mate TANK iPhone case is for you.
Waterproof and easy to snap off and on, the TANK has a nifty little screen that covers the touchscreen, a bit like a garage roller door. It only fits the iPhone 4 model, though.
Griffin Adidas miCoach Armband (£24.99)
Aimed at fitness fans, the Griffin Adidas miCoach Armband has a twist. It's just a nylon sporty armband with a touch-through screen protector that feels secure and safe enough, but download the miCoach app and the pace changes.
This free app offers a cycling-specific training routine complete with charts, goals and accomplishments. Great, though what we love most about the armband itself is the oh-so-small pocket for hiding a key. Mmm, secret pockets.
TripNeeds Alarmio Personal Cable Lock (£19.95)
Leaving your bike in the elements or even in the office can be tough - especially if it's brand new - but work must be done, and risks taken. A cable lock with a built-in motion sensitive alarm, the Alarmio uses a 60cm high tensile retractable steel cable that's nicely coated.
Lockable using a four-digit code, if Alarmio is disturbed it lets out an initial beep, and if its motion sensor, err, senses more motion - or a cut cable, obviously - it lets out an almighty 100-decibel screech. The only drawback is that to reach those levels requires four LR44 watch batteries.

BLUFFTON, OHIO – Manchester University head coach Brad Nadborne and his staff were obviously happy to see the return of sophomore forward Brady Dolezal (Tipton, Ind.) Wednesday, Jan. 22.
However, not even they or his Spartan teammates knew what he had in store. In his first game for the Black and Gold since Dec. 14, Dolezal picked up right where left off and then some. The sophomore scorched the nets at Bluffton University's Sommer Center to the tune of the program's second 30-point effort of the season to lead the way in a thrilling 68-67 Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference win.
"We thought he might be a little rusty," Nadborne said. "Obviously, he proved that wrong. He played a lot of minutes, but we kept checking on him, and he said he was okay. It was huge what he did tonight."
Dolezal was efficient from the field in all three areas. He was eight-of-nine from the field, two for three from beyond the arc and canned 12 of 14 free throw attempts to compile his 30-point outing. His biggest stretch, though, occurred in the waning moments.
With MU (3-13 overall, 2-7 HCAC) trailing 65-63 in the final minute, Dolezal got a traditional three-point play for a 66-65 lead. Bluffton (6-10 overall, 2-7 HCAC) responded on its ensuing possession with a jumper from Billy Taflinger to hold a 67-66 lead. Enter the Tipton native one more time.
"We elected not to take a timeout after (Bluffton) scored," Nadborne said. "We managed to get the ball into Brady's hands where he sliced to the basket, pulled up for a six-foot floater and nailed it." Bluffton did get a long look from half-court at the buzzer, but it fell off.
"The win was great," Nadborne said. "We had a game plan and stuck with it. Bluffton didn't make it easy, as even though their posts were being held down by our inside defense, they were hitting their perimeter shots. We were trailing by 12 with 6:30 left and stuck to the plan. Our offense remained pretty good, and we showed a ton of poise. We were very focused at the end."
Dolezal wasn't alone in his efforts. Junior forward Jon Thompson (Rushville, Ind.) tallied 19 points and grabbed seven rebounds to share the team lead with freshman guard Blake Brouwer (Elkhart, Ind.). Sophomore forward Matt Brown (Hobart, Ind.) came off the bench for a strong eight-point evening, and junior guard Grant Newlin (Muncie, Ind.) dished out four assists.
Manchester University returns to Stauffer-Wolfe Arena Saturday, Jan. 25. The 3 p.m. tipoff against Earlham College not only begins the second half of the HCAC campaign but also opens a five-game homestand.
"Our guys feel like we can get something put together," Nadborne said. "We have some key people healthy now and a big home stretch."
NOTES: Dolezal also added a team-best three steals to his 30-point night. His successive run of double-figure scoring games improved to four straight … His 12 made free throws were the most in a game for a Spartan player since former standout Jordan Moss hit 13 against MacMurray in November 2011 … Dolezal and Thompson's twin 30-point games match the efforts of former MU players Eric Berger (30) and Jamaal Wade (31) in the 2004-05 season.

Spotted: Sala Rattanagosin Restaurant
If you've been following this blog, you would know that I've featured many cool places I've been to like a restaurants, cafes, bars, parties, concerts and so on. Thus, I'll be introducing, reviewing and posting photos of these awesome places under the topic "Spotted".
Sala Rattanakosin restaurant and bar is located opposite Wat Arun and next to Chao Praya river. Most people often dine here in the evening for a more romantic and spectacular view of Bangkok Historic sties. Usually packed. If you are planning to dine at Sala Rattanakosin at night, you must call to reserve the table! Warning! It usually packed with tourists and local people who love to visit trendy places. The decoration has a Thai modern yet minimalist style with a mixed of bricks, polish concrete, and wooden.
Authentic Thai dishes generally have strong flavor. You know how much I love spicy and savory food! The food here was a little too mild for my taste. Almost every dishes have been toned down and adjusted to foreigner tastes. However, they did a really very great desserts. It was overall another great restaurant and bar everyone should give it a try!
View from the terrace in the afternoon
Wine counter bar. They feature wide variety of cocktails, wines, champagnes, and beers.

A complimentary dish. Prawn and rice crackers served with chili paste and peanut sauce. The sauces are very special! Must Try!
Thai spicy duck salad. It was too mild for me. I wish it could be spicier and a strong savory flavor.
Thai style spicy seafood salad!
Spring roll was one of my favorite dish!
Chicken with papaya salad and sticky rice
Mango with sticky rice
Chocolate mousse cake with sea salted caramel
Address: Sala Rattanakosin Hotel, 39, Maharat Rd., Phra Borom Maha Ratchawang, Phra Nakhon, Bangkok 10200 Thailand
Operating hours: 11.00 a.m. -4.00 p.m. and 5.30-10 p.m. (Open Daily)
The rooftop bar is open in the night time.
The design sees traces of the original building (think unfinished brick walls) accompanied by a minimal blackand- white theme. If you're lucky enough to drop by when the weather is cool (and dry), grab a spot on the spacious deck or get more comfy and enjoy the better view of Wat Arun from the air-con second floor.

Perry says a third special session is possible
State lawmakers are at an impasse over how to increase Texas transportation funding, and with a session deadline looming, Gov. Rick Perry has signaled he'll keep them longer if they don't finish the job.
House and Senate members, scheduled to return to the Capitol on Thursday, have spent most of the last two weeks divided on a key part of the plan to invest about $900 million more for highways. Senate officials, in passing their version of the funding plan earlier this month, demanded a minimum amount of money guaranteed for the state's economic stabilization fund, known as the rainy day fund. House lawmakers fought against a floor in their plan, which the Senate rejected last week.
Wednesday, Perry's office said he would call a third special session if lawmakers fail to act. Transportation funding is the final issue of this session unresolved. The session wraps up on Tuesday.
The rainy day fund is tapped in both plans. Funded mostly by oil production taxes, right now the fund has about $8 billion, intended for emergency fiscal situations. Worried that oil production tax revenues could dry up, some lawmakers insisted on a minimum that will stay in the rainy day fund before transportation officials get their money.
Rep. Joe Pickett, D-El Paso, who authored the House plan, said the floor was unnecessary because the spending, and all rainy day spending, still must win approval each biennium of the Legislature.
"We are the floor," he said last week.
Transportation officials said the need is dire. Speaking Tuesday in Houston to celebrate the start of a 38-mile segment of the Grand Parkway, Texas Transportation Commission Chairman Ted Houghton encouraged business and political officials to urge their lawmakers to find a solution.
"We can no longer hide our heads in the sand and say transportation can fund itself," Houghton said, noting gas taxes have remained unchanged in 20 years.
Proposals raising new revenues were quickly quashed by legislators in the regular session, leaving officials to find ways to shift to transportation from other sources.
Some of those ideas, such as Pickett's plan passed by the House, were greeted with skepticism from some officials and interest groups, who fear dedicating money for transportation lessens available funding for education in particular.
Houghton said he is not taking sides on which version, House or Senate, is better.
"Green is green," he said. "It's about the funding transportation needs."

Post subject: Improvements for Draw / Play
A suggestion for improving Draw / Play has been made here:
storm_norm wrote:
Asellus, Keith, cgordon, nataraj... anyone who follows the coloring discussions,
wouldn't it be nice to have a "coloring function" on the Draw/play screen??
even if that isn't possible, maybe a function to only show a particular candidate, like all the 1's or 2's etc.
Sudoku Susser does this: Click on a number (1-9, external to the grid), and it highlights all the unsolved cells that have that number as a candidate.
What it does not do (which I would like) is to also show strong links as lines connecting the cells.
Does anyone else have suggestions along these lines?
By the way, I use this to analyze puzzles, and to make sure my posts are correct. I do not use it to solve puzzles.
I am basically with nataraj on this: If you use a computer, what's the point? Sort of like never playing a complete game of chess, but only solving "mate in 3 moves" problems.
But, these kinds of features are an excellent aid to learn new techniques.

the latest discussion on skyscrapers, kites, turbot fish, etc, made me wonder if a function could be added to the draw/play page that would allow the user to "filter" the grid by number. many ways to do this either by removing all numbers except the candidate you want to view or by highlighting the particular candidate you want to view.
this would allow these "fishy" patterns to be seen more readily and therefore enhance the average users experience and knowledge with these patterns.
I also respect the opinion shared by many users that too many "helpful" tools in the draw/play page might actually be unbeneficial because they take away from what should be a fun, learning, thinking, (I have better things to do, but I am addicted) process.
I totally agree with this point of view. Before I read a word in this discussion, I felt that any program that would eliminate candidates was cheating.
However, in this case, and in light of most of the discussions on fishy patterns, you can make a huge case why this function would sooth even the casual curiousity that the average user would have when they read about x-wings and skyscrapers.
IMHO, the best way to fully conceptualize what an x-wing ( any fish ) does is to block out the other candidates not involved.

My wish list for Draw/Play is an "Undo" function, canceling the last step, as in MS Word. The other thing I'd like is the ability to import using character strings or actual grids.

As this is National Nurses Week, I wish to take a moment to thank each and every nurse, aide, assistant and person who takes care of our loved ones.
I wish to mention the wonderful group of caring, professional health care workers at New Haven Court at Clearview. I never wonder or worry about the care my mother receives there. These folks love their jobs, truly care about their patients and cannot do enough for each resident. No job goes undone, no resident is ever a problem, everything is done with care, consideration and diligence.
I must commend the excellent nurses, aides and staff at Butler Memorial Hospital. Each patient is considered top priority. The nurses know their patients' health concerns, likes and dislikes, and they are always willing to work with family members to aid in their patients' best interests.

Bill Thompson bids for support from city power brokers, vaguely
Bill Thompson, the former comptroller and Democratic mayoral nominee, stood patiently behind Al D'Amato in the ballroom of the Hilton New York this morning, as the Republican former senator talked to a scrum of reporters about why he's supporting Thompson.
"I wouldn't be supporting him if I didn't think he was a good, decent man who is capable of being a great mayor," said D'Amato, Thompson's second biggest fund-raiser. "And I didn't know he was next to me while I was saying that."
Story Continued Below
Thompson stepped forward and took D'Amato's place.
This was shortly after Thompson had addressed a ballroom full of wealthy, civic-minded New Yorkers at a breakfast sponsored by the Association for Better New York.
The case he made to the audience for his mayoral candidacy was four-fold: He'll keep New York City safe, he'll keep the economy strong, he'll invest in infrastructure, and he'll make the city more affordable for people who aren't wealthy.
On the question of public safety, Thompson said the size of the police force should be expanded to 37,000 (from 34,500, the current number), 1,000 of those new officers should be stationed in the city's five most dangerous precincts, and there should be "fundamental reform" to the department's stop-and-frisk program in order to improve relations between the department and the community.
He faulted Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Democratic mayoral front-runner Christine Quinn, who as Council Speaker has worked closely with Bloomberg, for what he said was their "fiscal irresponsibility" in failing to resolve union contracts, all of which are now expired, for the first time since the 1970s.
He said he would create a new position for a deputy mayor for infrastructure to guide the city's efforts to rebuild from, and mitigate against, another Hurricane Sandy.
He said he would work to resolve the city's "affordability and opportunity" gap.
And he said he'd focus on economic development in all five boroughs, and build up the city's biotech sector.
He did say he was against raising taxes. But his proposals and goals, and the possible means of paying for them, were presented in broad strokes, which is to say without much detail. In the reporter's scrum that followed, he declined to offer any further elaboration.
Henry Goldman, a Bloomberg reporter, asked Thompson whether he would consider granting retroactive pay raises to members of all those public unions without contracts. The current mayor dismised that possibility out of hand.
"You know something, the one thing right now, I'm not gonna talk about union contracts," said Thompson, explaining that the unions and the city are going to have to enter "an era of cooperation."
But what does he think about the concept of retroactive pay raises?
"This isn't a discussion right now about how I'm gonna do union contracts," he said. "I'm not in City Hall, I'm not the mayor. And the one thing I've learned over the years, it's a mistake to discuss that in public."
Thompson also said he took issue with the current administration's reliance on so-called "one-shots," like taxi-medallion sales, to close its budgets.
Asked how would he would close the city's budget gaps, Thompson said, "You have to make those reductions. You have to go within budget, and continue to make cuts."
But what would he cut?
"The one thing I'm not gonna do is, right now, here's where you're gonna make a cut, here's where you're not,'" he said. "I'm not sitting in the seat, I don't have the same access to the numbers that the current mayor does."
Would he lay off workers to close the budget gap?
"You know something, we have millions and tens of millions of dollars in contracts," said Thompson. "You look at the education system, you look at other places. They're outsourcing and in some places, some would even say privatizing a lot of functions. It's a question of bringing those back in-house, making sure we get a real bang for our buck, making sure we work with workers in skill development and then bringing that money back in-house."
A reporter followed up by asking about the current administration's effort to reduce the costs of its school-bus contracts by eliminating employment guarantees for current drivers, which is at issue in an ongoing bus-driver strike. New York City currently pays more than twice as much per bus-riding pupil than any other city in America.
"The bidding out of contracts, I don't have a problem with that," Thompson said. "What you're seeing right now in eliminating the employee-protection provision, I believe that should be there. At one point as president of the board of education, we looked at those contracts. We wanted to make sure that employees who had the skills, who have records of safety, continue to be those that are driving our students and taking care of them."

They put out an energetic effort Wednesday afternoon, but all they got at the end was a lot of tears and a chicken sandwich lunch as they fell 83-75 to top-seeded ETSU here in the quarterfinals at the University Center on the campus of Mercer University.
"We came here really believing we could win this tournament," Lady Bisons' coach Frank Bennett said. "The team has really made a lot of progress over the past couple of weeks and had really worked hard thanks to our senior leadership, but we couldn't quite pull it off.
"I was really proud of our team and how hard it played and how together our players played."
The No. 8 Lady Bisons knew it would be a major upset if they pulled off the quarterfinal win. The Lady Bisons had lost their previous 10 meetings with ETSU. The top seeds in the A-Sun Tournament are 15-1 overall against the No. 8 seed.
The Lady Bisons led 35-33 at the half and appeared to be on their way to the upset.
In the second half ETSU, the three-time A-Sun Tournament Champion, used a combination of a layups and free throws to take control for most of the second half.
"Give ETSU credit," Bennett said. "They really drove the ball to the basket well.
"When you get down against them they are a tough team to play catch with because they are the best free throw shooting team in the conference."
Senior guard Jenna Bartsokas and junior guard Anna Bowers tied for the team lead in scoring with 18 points apiece. Bartsokas was confident the Lady Bisons would be able to win after the first 20 minutes.
"I don't think we even hit our shots that well in the first half," Bartsokas said. "I know Val (Bronson) went out with two quick fouls.
"So going into the second half I knew Val would play the whole second half and we were going to hit our shots. I just had all of the confidence in the world."
Also in double figures for the Lady Bisons were Bronson with 15 points and forward Hannah Phillips with 14.
The Lady Bisons shot 37.9 from the field while ETSU shot 38.6, including a 48.5 percent success rate in the second half.
Phillips also led the Lady Bisons in rebounds with seven.
The Lady Bisons lost the battle of the boards with ETSU holding a 52-29 advantage and a 23-15 edge in offensive rebounds. Jasmine McIntosh led ETSU with nine rebounds.
ETSU also placed four players in double figures. Gwen Washington came off of the bench to score a game-high 24. Tara Davis added 23. Shawn Randall chipped in 12 and Natalie Pickwell finished with 11.
"Gwen Washington was really hard to guard," Bennett said. "She was a real force.
"Tara Davis really played well for ETSU. She knocked down a lot of free throws late in the game."

Hey guys,
I have a pretty unusual request here. Maybe some of you know the new [Gore]RaceJumps server. I decided to make a map for that.
But the problem is now that my GTKradiant is still set for 4.1 and it can't be set to 4.2. I don't know why, but it doesn't work. Altough is can't be changed, I need a Racestart/stop for my map.
So I am asking if I can send my .map to someone who can add these two things. If you want to do that for me, just write a PM
Thank you

Remove GPS Data From iPhone Images On Mac OSX
The past couple of days I have written a couple articles about how to view iPhone image GPS data on a Mac using Photoshop and Preview. Each of these articles included a mini warning at the bottom of the article noting that you should keep the GPS data in mind when uploading images to social media sites, sharing the images, etc. so I figured I should write a quick article showing a method you could use to remove this GPS data before sharing the images either on social media sites, via email, etc. Below there are details of an easy way to remove GPS details from images on Mac OSX.

Designer Notes
Let's go Pirates! Shop officially licensed bags and support your team in style. This bag is simple and chic with timeless elegance and understated style, making it perfect for work or a dressed up night about town.
Product Details
One inside zip pocket. Two inside pockets.Cell phone pocket. Adjustable strap. Strap drop length 25.00".Lined. Nylon fabric. Officially licensed by Major League Baseball Properties, Inc. Major League Baseball trademarks and copyrights are used with permission of Major League Baseball Properties, Inc.Measurement Guide
Approximately measures H 6.25" x W 2.5" x L 8.5" and weighs 1 lb 5 oz.
Care & Cleaning
The nylon fabric will initially repel water. However, if nylon is exposed to water for any length of time, it will darken momentarily due to some water absorption. Should this occur, blot with a dry white or light colored cloth and allow it to dry completely.
For simple spot cleaning, use a soft cotton cloth slightly dampened with distilled water (sodium-free seltzer water may be substituted) and a mild bar soap, applied in a circular motion. Repeat with distilled water only to ensure no residual soap remains. The fabric should then be allowed to dry completely.
Oily spots should first be wiped free of excess liquid. Talcum powder is then sprinkled on the area and allowed to sit briefly. Us- ing a dry toothbrush, gently brush the powder away to alleviate the soil. No creams, polishes, cleansers, or leather conditioning products should be used on the trim and handles.

The current situation at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant is a serious matter; and having family in close proximity of it makes it even more serious to me. For this reason, I appreciate the onslaught of emails and phone calls that friends and acquaintances have sent me to express their solidarity. Thank you!
At the same time, I am appalled by the way western media has represented the situation, which has led some people to send me distraught missives about the "imminent" crisis and the lies of the Japanese government. Since I haven't posted in a while, I seized opportunity to type some words about risk and science communication. Since this is going to be a little bit of a rant, I apologize to my regular readership (that handful of patient people) for having digressed a little, yet again.
Here is my rant:

March 11, 2005
LOS ANGELES—UCLA Anderson School of Management finance professor Avanidhar "Subra" Subrahmanyam has been selected to hold the school's Goldyne and Irwin Hearsh Chair in Money and Banking. This endowed chair was established in 1982 to support teaching and research that focuses on the application of interest theory and flow of funds analysis in the markets for bonds, mortgages, stocks and other financial instruments.
Prof. Subrahmanyam serves on the finance faculty at UCLA Anderson and is renowned for his innovative and pioneering research in the use of psychological principles to explain stock price movements. He uses his expertise to explain events and behavioral patterns that result in financial phenomena, as well as events such as spikes in gasoline prices and the effect of war on the stock market.
"Prof. Subrahmanyam embodies true excellence in the field of finance and has proven expertise in his ground-breaking research," said Rakesh Sarin, senior associate dean and chair of the faculty at UCLA Anderson School of Management. "We are very proud of Subra's scholarly pursuits and accomplishments."
UCLA Anderson professor emeritus Michael Brennan, the previous holder of the Goldyne and Irwin Hearsh Chair, retired in 2003. He was recruited to UCLA in 1986 from University of British Columbia to become the first holder of this chair.
The Goldyne and Irwin Hearsh Chair in Money and Banking is named for late UCLA alumnus Irwin L. Hearsh and his widow, Goldyne. Mr. Hearsh, who received his bachelor's degree in economics from UCLA in 1934, was a partner in Hearsh Brothers, a Los Angeles-based investment company. He was also president of Old 395 Corporation, a real estate investment company, and owner of the Rainbow Canyon Golf Resort in Riverside County. Mrs. Hearsh, who maintains a strong bond with UCLA Anderson and the university, most recently attended Celebrate Anderson, a gala affair held on Alumni Plaza that commemorated several key milestones in the school's history.
"We're pleased to have a scholar of Subra's caliber fill this important endowed chair," said Bruce G. Willison, dean of UCLA Anderson School of Management. "The Hearsh's gift to the university some 23 years ago enabled us to attract and retain Michael Brennan, one of the finest finance scholars in the world. Their foresight in creating such a lasting legacy is part of an enduring effort that will help UCLA maintain its top standing among the nation's leading research universities."
UCLA is currently in the midst of an Ensuring Academic Excellence Initiative, a five-year effort aimed at generating $250 million in private commitments specifically for the recruitment and retention of the very best faculty and graduate students. The initiative, launched in June 2004, aims to raise $100 million to fund 100 new endowed chairs for faculty across campus. In addition, UCLA plans to enhance support for students by raising $100 million to fund fellowships and scholarships in the UCLA College and $50 million for fellowships and scholarships in UCLA's 11 professional schools.
Currently, Prof. Subrahmanyam's research examines the relationship between the trading environment of a firm's stock and the firm's cost of capital, and behavioral theories for asset price behavior and empirical determinants of the cross-section of equity returns.
Prof. Subrahmanyam, who is a UCLA alumnus, has authored numerous articles in finance and economics journals. He is a member of the Working Research Group on Market Microstructure, recently established by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) in Cambridge, Mass. He also serves as co-editor of the Journal of Financial Markets and has been a past associate editor of the Journal of Finance as well as the Review of Financial Studies.
For his research achievements, he has received best paper awards from the Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics, Western Finance Association and the International Conference of Finance in Taiwan, and he has been nominated several times for the best paper in Journal of Finance. Prof. Subrahmanyam has served as a consultant to the Nasdaq Stock Market, the National Stock Exchange in Mumbai, San Jose Mercury News and Irwin/McGraw-Hill.
Prof. Subrahmanyam received his doctorate in finance from UCLA Anderson in 1990.

Normal temperatures appear to be topsy turvy everywhere at the moment and the UK is no exception! Starting at a 10 degree hike on temperatures normal for this time of year we are thoroughly enjoying an 'Indian' summer.
So, what is this term, Indian summer? Here it is described as period of unseasonably dry, warm and calm weather which follows colder weather in late Autumn.
"The term Indian summer reached England in the 19th century, during the heyday of the British Raj in India. This lead to the mistaken belief that the term referred to the Indian subcontinent. In fact, the Indians in question were the Native Americans, and the term began use there in the late 18th century. The English already had names for the phenomenon - St. Luke's Summer, St. Martin's Summer or All-Hallown Summer, but these have now all but disappeared and, like the rest of the world, the term Indian summer has been used in the UK for at least a century.
Why Indian? Well, no one knows but, as is commonplace when no one knows, many people have guessed. Here are a few of the more commonly repeated guesses:
- When European settlers first came across the phenomenon in America it became known as the Indian's Summer.
- The haziness of the Indian Summer weather was caused by prairie fires deliberately set by Native American tribes.
- It was the period when First Nations/Native American peoples harvested their crops.
- The phenomenon was more common in what were then North American Indian territories.
- It relates to the marine shipping trade in the Indian Ocean (this is highly dubious as it is entirely remote from the early US citations).
- It originated from raids on European settlements by Indian war parties, which usually ended in autumn.
- In a parallel with other 'Indian' terms it implied a belief in Indian falsity and untrustworthiness and that an Indian summer was an ersatz copy of the real thing."
"…" quoted from The Phrase Finder http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/indian-summer.html
Anyway, since I am staying with my husband at our bolt hole in Devon we were told about a small cove that would warrant a visit and it is called Blackpool Sands. This is not to be confused with Blackpool in the north of England!

When it's hot, as in summertime hot, it can feel like your brain doesn't work right. Which may partly explain why the summer is such a peak season for stupid movies, the sorts of loud, outsized, clanging behemoths that people mean when they typically refer negatively to "Hollywood."
The recent successful opening — the official industry-speak term I believe is "boffo" — for the comedy sequel "22 Jump Street" points to something else. Just as it's fun sometimes to watch things blow up, it is also fun just to laugh. In its ambitious scale the new "Jump Street" bears comparisons to films such as "The Blues Brothers" or "Ghostbusters." As with so many of the best comedies, summer fare such as "22 Jump Street" often arrives packing enough self-awareness to make viewers feel as if their brains aren't on holiday.
Big comedies don't have to be dumb. Where this self-referencing was once more unusual, in today's media-saturated world it has become almost expected, or requiring of some further twist.
"22 Jump Street" features elaborate throwaway gags taken from the British comedian Benny Hill or the lobster pot call-back in "Annie Hall," references that many in the coveted youth demographic might not even be aware of, much let get. The recent "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" featured a shrewd satire on the sensationalism of contemporary news and media culture by implying it was invented by Will Ferrell's oblivious character Ron Burgundy. (Also, there was jazz flute on ice.)
As directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller from a screenplay by Michael Bacall, Oren Uziel and Rodney Rothman, the "Jump Street" sequel even preempts criticism of itself. In "21 Jump Street" there were numerous jokes based on the idea of remaking a relatively unknown television show, and this time out there is much made of the diminishing returns of doing something again. So if one happens to find "22 Jump Street" slightly less satisfying, that is in essence acknowledged by the film with a smile, a wink and a shrug. They know it, we know it, and it becomes the filmmaking equivalent of the catchall phrase "it is what it is."
The new "Jump Street" also set off a brief flurry of online conversation regarding its running series of jokes on the gay/homosocial subtext that typically runs through male buddy cop movies, most notably in the "Lethal Weapon" or "Bad Boys" films. Eventually the police partners played by Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill, undercover this time as college students, find themselves in a therapy session as if they are romantic partners and all of their comments and complaints about each other as friends and co-workers seem to fit the dynamic of a romantic discussion just fine.
Just as the action is outsized and the film is in general writ large, it flirts with too much-ness here too. The main criticism was that the jokes went too far in number, from signaling awareness to something else, as if in the aggregate the series of gags moves from pointing out a problem to extending it. Regardless, it is useful that the movie went there, leaving the argument against it as mostly a matter of degrees.
The unconscious and hard-to-control aspect of our laughter as audiences can make it difficult to pick apart comedies. (When was the last time you floundered while trying to explain a joke after the fact?) Yet, stepping back, that essential uncertainty can also be instructive as to why we are laughing at the things we do, shedding light, under cover of comedy, at our deep-seated attitudes.
It's that sort of larger awareness of the movie itself, the big picture and purpose of what it might really be about, which the series of "Hangover" pictures largely lacked, making the films fun at times but not much else. (Which also explains the rapidly diminishing returns of the sequels.) The recent film "Neighbors," with Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne, revealed itself as a window onto changing notions of what maturity means, as well as the balance of power, responsibility and trust in relationships. And perhaps one of the best relatively recent examples of the secretly smart summer comedy was the quietly subversive "Bridesmaids," which Hollywood has largely not figured out what or how to learn from.
These big, commercial comedies have unexpectedly become a strong barometer of cultural concerns, as if audiences need the relief of laughing at the things that worry them in their everyday lives. Looking back a few years, there may be no better representation, however broad, of the cultural dominance of a certain stubborn Americana-based mind-set that took root in the early-'00s than the stock-car comedy "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby."
As it happens, Jerry Lewis' masterful "The Nutty Professor" has just been released in a beautiful Blu-ray edition. Lewis' bold run of films in the early 1960s as director, star, co-writer and producer in many ways sets the stage for the kind of hyper-awareness of these contemporary comedies.
In the film Lewis plays a nerdy teacher who discovers a formula that turns him Jekyll and Hyde-style into a suave sophisticate, something akin to early Pete Campbell morphing into Don Draper on "Mad Men." Over the years, many would have that the cool-cat Buddy Love character was a jab at Lewis' former partner, Dean Martin, or even Dean's buddy Frank Sinatra. It could also be said that the character is in fact Lewis' distorted view of himself, as the character's air of self-seriousness has become a hallmark off Lewis' off-screen persona. Lewis wouldn't again reveal on-screen his doubts about himself until his dramatic performance in Martin Scorsese's "The King of Comedy."
In the same way, Jonah Hill has recently made a running gag of whether he has become full of himself now that he is a two-time Academy Award nominee. That he had become insufferable was a throughline of his character in last summer's inside-out "This Is the End," in which an entire coterie of Young Hollywood played themselves facing an apocalypse, and early in "22 Jump Street" Hill insists on absolute silence from his partner so that he can get into character before an undercover operation.
At the end of Lewis' "The Patsy," his follow-up to "The Nutty Professor," the lovable schnook played by Lewis seems to fall off a balcony. The performer pops up, revealing the soundstage he is on while directly addressing the audience. He smashes the fiction of the story and essentially ends his movie by throwing it aside.
The moment could be seen as an antecedent to the end credits of "22 Jump Street," which have been widely hailed as the funniest and most inventive part of the film. As their mission as college students concludes, Hill and Tatum are told they will next go undercover to medical school, which sets off a series of further schools — such as beauty, dancing, firefighting, flight training — they will attend in a further series of sequels. The seemingly endless series of fake film ideas pulls the rug out from under the movie that just played while also throwing a preemptive pie in the face of whatever might come next.
These rowdy, reflexive comedies are of course not the only way to lighten the mood, as the revamped rom-com of "Obvious Child" also points toward a gentler style of more apparent worldliness. Summer moviegoing may be about escapism and simply beating the heat in air-conditioned comfort, but unlike most of their action movie cousins, summer comedies don't seem by default to ask audiences to switch off their brains.

Also, is it possible that Internet access and even PCs are going to be
needed by everyone, including low-income people? I'm old enough to
remember when television was new and when middle-class people tsk-tsked at
seeing "poor people" spending their money on TV sets. At some point, the
need for TV access by everyone was acknowledged. I think this will happen
with Internet and PCs, also.

About WFMU
ange on 04/23/2013 at 08:44AM
The Revitalize Music Contest
Bring the public domain into the future! This April, WFMU and the Free Music Archive are challenging artists everywhere to create new recordings and contemporary arrangements of historic compositions available in the public domain. We're calling this our Revitalize Music Contest.
Every song (except for perhaps "Happy Birthday") will someday fall out of copyright. Archives such as the IMSLP/Petrucci Music Library, Musopen and the Public Domain Information Project chart the vast and ever-expanding troves of public domain music. Participants in our Revitalize Music Contest will help bring these works to life by creating new recordings, and feeding them back into the public domain.
To inspire entries, we've handpicked a selection of out-of-copyright songs with compelling lyrics, beautiful melodies, and unusual stories. Keep in mind that unless materials are listed in our contest repository, the recordings of performances we link to are still within the scope of copyright. After learning about the songs and contest rules here below, you can browse our pool of entries.
God Be With You Until We Meet Again (1880)
An old Mormon hymn with a beautiful melody that first came to our attention when Haruomi Hosono (of Yellow Magic Orchestra) recorded a version. You can stream this version for inspiration. It features lyrics by Jeremiah E. Rankin (1828-1904) and music by William G. Tomer (1833-1896).
Sheet Music: new pdf, older pdf, hymn wiki, lds version, lilypond
Beautiful Dreamer (1862)
In addition to showing up constantly on TV, movies, and when you open musical jewelry boxes, this song has been recorded by Bing Crosby, Roy Orbison, and (our personal favorite) Justine and the Victorian Punks. It was originally a parlor song by Stephen Foster (1826–1864) that was published posthumously by Wm. A. Pond & Co. of New York.
Sheet Music: IMSLP, older pdf, newer pdf
The Spaniard That Blighted My Life (1911)
A comic song that was performed by Al Jolson in his show The Honeymoon Express. It's also notably been sung by "outsider" musician Tony Mason-Cox, an Australian insurance agent who believed himself to be the reincarnation of a black slave from 19th Century Alabama. It was written by Billy Merson.
Sheet Music: older pdf, ole miss library
Nola (1915)
Felix Arndt (1889–1918) wrote this novelty ragtime-style piano roll as an engagement gift to his fiancée (and later wife), Nola Locke. He died just three years after it was published, and lyrics were later added by James F. Burns.
Sheet Music: IMSLP, Duke, older pdf
April 28, 2013: Submissions Deadline at 6:00pm ET
April 30, 2013: We'll be announcing the judge's favorite songs, including our first place winner.
One winning song from our pool of entries will be given a Rebecca Black "Friday" treatment. We'll be hiring a music video professional to create an original music video that showcases the winning song and shares it with a wider audience.
Our judges include Edward Guo (Founding Director, IMSLP/Petrucci Music Library), April Ledbetter (Dust-to-Digital Record Company), Laura Cantrell (Singer-Songwriter), Joel Meyer (Executive Producer, WNYC's Soundcheck), Adam Green (Editor, Public Domain Review) and Ken Freedman (Station Manager, WFMU). They'll be evaluating entries based on originality, creativity, artistic merit, adherence to the "Revitalize Music" theme, and general musical appeal. We welcome exact covers, in-exact covers, repurposed elements, mashups, stems, and everything in-between. You can focus on the songs we've chosen above, or dig up your own. More information about our judges can be found here.
- Entries should be comprised of music that you create yourself, material that's in the public domain, or other material that you have express permission to use. Keep in mind that most recordings and performances of these public domain songs are still within the scope of copyright.
- Entrants must create accounts on the Free Music Archive in order to submit to the contest. This way we have your info. You can sign up here.
- Entries must be in the form of an audio recording and in MP3 format, stereo bitrate 192kbps or higher (256kbps preferred).
- Entries must be submitted using our form here. You can submit as many entries as you'd like.
Please see our Official Rules.
Songs enter the public domain when their copyright expires or if the song's author has forfeited rights and dedicated the song to the greater good. The Public Domain Review explains the public domain eloquently as an "invaluable and indispensable good, which - like our natural environment and our physical heritage - deserves to be explicitly recognized, protected and appreciated."
While most songs enter the public domain because of old age, Creative Commons offers a CC0 Public Domain Declaration that allows artists to dedicate their work to the public domain. It seems fitting that entries to the contest will breathe new life into the Public Domain by returning to whence they came. These new works can then be more easily shared, remixed, and built upon during the contest and after the contest ends. We imagine these entries being used in video projects, coursework, video games, podcasts, and beyond.
Using CC0, you waive all copyrights and related or neighboring rights that you have over your work, such as your moral rights (to the extent waiveable), your publicity or privacy rights, rights you have protecting against unfair competition, database rights, and rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, and reuse of data. More information here.
Don't hesitate to send us a note.
This contest is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts.

text: Today is the first Father's Day that I am spending without one of the most important people in my life. It feels odd and quiet around here. Though I'd still like to think that he's somewhere watching over me, maybe enjoying a nice juicy steak off the grill while we're at it. This line from a James Wright poem, borrowed from the dedication page of Molly Wizenberg's A Homemade Life, sums it up best.

Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's and women's indoor track and field squads opened action in the Grand Valley State "Big Meet" on Friday (Feb. 10) at the Kelly Family Sports Center in Allendale, Mich.
