Place, nature influence professor poetry
Tuesday, September 3, 2013 2:00 AM
Pittsburg, KS
Whether it is a crow clinging to the bare branches of an elm tree in his Pittsburg backyard or childhood memories of a family farm near Concordia, images of Kansas are part of the fabric of Stephen Meats' powerful poetry. Meats, a professor of English at Pittsburg State University, will read selections from his most recent book of poetry and short stories, "Dark Dove Descending," at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 5, in the Governors Room of the Overman Student Center at PSU. The reading is free and open to the public.
Meats, who joined the PSU faculty in 1979, has a reputation as a regional writer whose writing reflects "a passion for place-Kansas wind and sky." He said his writing is informed by the things he sees in nature every day and by powerful human interactions and emotions that, like the Kansas landscape, may go unnoticed by the casual observer.
"The landscape and the wildlife (are important)," Meats said of his influences. "I include a lot of references to birds. There's something transcendent in the flight of a bird."
Meats said becoming a poet was a personal journey.
"I've scribbled all my life," Meats said, "but I didn't write my first poem until I was 35."
His first book of poetry, "Looking for the Pale Eagle," was published in 1993.
"I produce a book of poetry every 20 years, like clockwork," Meats laughed, noting that the life of a professor and university administrator sometimes leaves little time for writing.
Over the years, Meats' poems and short stories have appeared in a long list of journals, including Kansas Quarterly, The Quarterly, Tampa Review, Flint Hills Review, Prairie Poetry, Arete: The Journal of Sport Literature, and in the anthologies "Kansas Stories," "Begin Again," and "To the Stars Through Difficulties."
In the classroom, Meats said, he tries to encourage young writers, even when their first efforts are not inspiring.
"With students, I try to be very encouraging," Meats said. "I tell them the poems they're writing now are not what they will write later. I teach a Walt Whitman class and one of the first things I do is show them samples of his early works. It's God-awful doggerel."
Meats is much tougher on his own writing, however.
"The longer I've written, the harder it has become, because the standard keeps going up," Meats said. "Poems are made out of words and the poet is always looking for bits and pieces of language that have energy."
Sometimes, in the search for those bits and pieces, magic happens.
"(When I wrote my first poem,) I had a sense that something had happened," he said. "It's a little bit mysterious."
"Dark Dove Descending and Other Parables" is published by Mammoth Publications and is available online through Amazon, Walmart and other outlets. Meats' reading is sponsored by the PSU Department of English.

With daylight savings time fast approaching, I am reminded that spring is nearly upon us. For the current graduate student, spring often means comps season. It always seems to be the time that never ends, until the next thing you know, it's three years later and you look back and marvel about the relativity of time.
One of the hardest things about any new endeavor is getting started. Everyone has to start somewhere, and much as we would prefer to think otherwise, the best place to start is at the beginning. Much as I don't want to admit it, I hated starting at the beginning. But I did it (and I'm glad I did it), and here's a handful of things I've learned so far.
You're going to make mistakes. Embrace them, learn from them, and use them for good.
I, like many I suspect, envisioned all sorts of things going smoothly when I first started. This daydream was quickly put to rest as I realized that getting the hang of things takes time.
What's more, sometimes the only way to really learn something is to make certain mistakes along the way. The key is to realize that you can harness a lot of knowledge from mistakes. Try to think of your clinical fellowship not as a place where you need to be perfect, but a place where it can be safe to make mistakes. Keep an open line of communication with your clinical supervisor, and be realistic about what you feel comfortable doing. Think big, but don't be afraid about starting small.
Try a little bit of everything. You never know what might end up capturing your attention.
I spent much of graduate school being grossed out by anything related to swallowing. Still, I resigned myself to trying it out because I wanted to have some experience in every aspect of the field. While at first I was wary of what I termed the ick factor, I found that I loved working with the patients. It certainly took some time to acclimate to things I found uncomfortable, but I find myself wanting to do more so I could keep working with those patients.
Think of graduate school not as the last chance to learn everything. Think of it as the place where you're finally given the tools you need to really learn, both in terms of actual resources as well as the capacity to make sense of them.
Half of what I learned in graduate school didn't make sense to me until the very end. Even three years out, I'm still marveling at how pieces are slowly starting to fall into place. I find myself frequently poring over text books, reading and re-reading things and making connections for what seems like the very first time.
One thing I cherish about this field, and its practitioners, is a passion for life-long learning. I talk to colleagues about things I see with patients that challenge how I had, up until that moment, thought about things. I debate things with the #SLPeeps on Twitter. I ask questions of doctors and nurses that seem at first unrelated to speech and swallowing, but which ultimately deepen my understanding of what a patient might be experiencing.
Try not to think in cliches. That said, practice makes perfect. (Or rather, perfect-ish.)
I generally shy away from the word 'perfect', but find this saying apt in many ways. I started playing the guitar when I was in first grade, and the violin in fourth grade. In undergrad, I did theater for two years. In every creative avenue, I found myself in awe of what others could do, of how amazing their words or their music flowed.
I used to think of those I admired while I practiced. I wanted to be able to simply pick up my instrument, or say my lines, with as much ease and grace as them. "How nice it must be not to have to practice much," I thought, "and to have such ease of talent."
But I was wrong on one point. They did have talent, absolutely, but they, like me, had to practice to get there. The best way to get good at something is to do it, over and over and over again, until you become just a little bit better at it each time.
It is a journey. One filled with frustration, joy, and emotion, but one worth taking. I no longer strive for perfection, not because I don't think it's possible, but because I never want to stop trying to learn and grow. I always want to keep aiming to get just a little bit better every step of the way.

There has been a fair amount of Vanilla WoW bashing going on recently, both on twitter (*) and on the forums. However my memories of the original game that I started playing back in 2005 don't quite seem to tally up with everyone else's. I'm not saying it was perfect, far from it and I can understand why Blizzard made a lot of the choices they did, but rose tinted spectacles aside, in many ways, it was the part of the game I enjoyed the most. Now I know a part of that, at least, has to come down to that sense of amazement and awe of those first few weeks and months of playing. Of discovering sea monsters off the coast of Darkshore and being chased by crocolisks through the Wetlands. The Deeprun Tram and Stitches patrolling the road in Duskwood, yes all these played a part in my love affair with WoW but there was more to it than the visual side.
Same server battlegrounds:
Yes the queues were horrific for the Alliance on most PvE servers and the Horde on most PvP servers but PvP is best played when personal. When it's guild versus guild or you versus your nemesis, the guy you've hated since you were both level 30 in STV and you spent the better part of an afternoon taking turns to kill each other whilst fighting quest mobs. I was also rather partial to 24 hours Alterac Valleys when you could go to bed at 2 am and get up and find the game going on eight hours later. In particular the guild versus guild AVs were especially fun but they also served a purpose, as nothing builds teamwork and better game play than trying to beat people who will go straight to IRC and brag about it for the next year if you lose.
World PvP:
Pre battlegrounds, World PvP was prolific and far more fun than it is now that flying mounts factor into the equation. You had a reason to group up for leveling because numbers counted, as shown by the fact that a group of three level 40s in STV could take down a level 60 if played right. Southshore/Tarren Mill and Crossroads provided hours of fun between willing participants. As there was no gear originally associated with this, you could guarantee that everyone was there because they wanted to be there, thus the name calling and whining was kept to a minimum.
No name changes/server transfers:
An officer in my first proper guild said to me one late night, "All you have in WoW is your reputation" and back then it was true. Behave badly and your chances of a decent guild, good runs or being asked anywhere were pretty much zero. Community mattered, both in and out of guilds and was cemented by the same server battlegrounds. I knew pretty much everyone on my faction at level 60, either because I'd played with them on some dungeon run or other or through pvp or simply by word of mouth. Now I know a handful of people on my current server and through the use of LFR, LFD and random battlegrounds have no incentive to get to know anyone.
Attunement Quests:
Not because I liked running UBRS over and over and over again to help everyone in a 40 man guild get their attunements to Onxyia and Blackwing Lair but because of the story and the sense of achievement. That raids weren't just slightly bigger versions of dungeons but something a bit special so you entered with a sense of awe. You couldn't simply stroll in and start killing. They also served a purpose in helping you get to know people outside raiding, in building the team you needed to take down the bosses hiding within.
40 man raiding:
My first ever raid was Molten Core and could be described as a bit of a disaster but that feeling of fighting along side 39 others was intense and immense. That's what drew me in and addicted me, once I got over my feeling of "omg what if I screw up!!!! and waste everyone else's time". I suspect that's what ruined 10 man raiding for me as well, having done plenty of 10 man Stratholme and Scholomance runs back then I just can't see 10 man raiding as something epic or exciting. Yes, not all 40 were ever equal but that's true of every size raid group. There will always been someone or another who is being carried by the rest of the team. Having struggled for weeks to clear our way through AQ40 for example, when we finally managed to kill C'thun as a team it was an amazing feeling, one which wasn't recreated by any of the boss kills which came afterwards.
No reward for playing badly:
You couldn't get "good" gear by making mistakes or by doing dailies. You either had to "grind" to rank 11 or higher or you had to raid at a decent level. There was incentive to improve thrust in your face on a daily basis if you wanted to see the entire game. Screw up on a couple of dungeon runs and the whole server knew your name and if you wanted to get asked on other runs, then you had to improve and be seen to improve.
Healers versus Dps:
I could take on most players in 1 v 1s as a Holy Priest and I had a good chance of winning. By the time I had proper pvp gear, warriors could pop recklessness and still lose against me. Now, they'd have to be afk or really bad for me to have a chance of winning.
The 5 second rule and downranking:
These were two of my favourite aspects of being a healer and I have to admit that I was sad to see them go. By the time Naxx rolled around it was amazing what you could do with low level heal spells, especially if you timed it right.
That constant and continuous feeling of the World:
Very few loading screens and no phasing getting in the way when you're trying to save guildmates from being ganked.
In conclusion I can't help shake the feeling that perhaps we're looking at it wrong, that vanilla, that most boring flavour of all is best applied to the game in it's current incarnation. When all play styles are accounted for and the distinction between striving to be the best you can be and just bouncing along doing as little as possible is tiny, then there is something wrong. Botters are rife, so are loud mouthed and abusive jerks in every aspect of the game because there are no consequences to obnoxious behaviour. Blizzard have tried to give us everything we wanted and yet the social side of the game, that huge and important aspect has suffered as a result. I can raid, dungeon and pvp without investing any effort in the people I play with and that is reflected in the way people behave. "Oh I'm never going to see this person again… so I'll roll on X loot, call him a bunch of names and then pull the boss and leave", we see it again and again in blog posts, on the forums and on twitter…. somewhere along the line we have created our own form of hell.
* Sorry for borrowing your post but you had the twitter conversation all nicely laid out already!

HOUSTON – X-rays taken Monday revealed that Houston Dynamo captain Brian Ching has cartilage damage in his left rib cage, which could take two to four weeks to fully heal.
Ching was involved in several collisions – including two notable ones were with New York goalkeeper Bouna Coundoul – in last Saturday's match against New York. However, the serious pain did not immediately hit Ching. It was only when he began running up field that the big striker crumpled to the ground.
"I got hit a couple of times and didn't think anything of it, but I was running up the field and went to make a cut and I felt a pop and couldn't move or breathe after that," Ching said. "The trainer came out and when I was on the ground, I felt it pop again and the pain wasn't as bad. I thought I could play and as soon as I went out and turned, I felt the pop again and realized I was done."
The official diagnosis of Ching's injury is costochondral separation, the result of cartilage damage that causes the rib to separate or to feel dislocated from the sternum.
[inline_node:321596]After missing Monday's training session to get X-rayed, Ching returned Tuesday and did some light ball and fitness work but nothing involving cutting.
Ching said he is "probably" out of Sunday's match vs. Vancouver at Robertson Stadium but understands that he has to be at 100 percent to be able to be effective.
"I can't miss all week and jump back into a competitive game and risk getting hurt again," Ching said. "Obviously I want to play, but I understand that I have to be ready and healthy before I can contribute. We should know more about the match from the way I feel on Friday or Saturday."
The veteran striker is encouraged by the way he feels, but the team will not rush him back onto the pitch.
"At this point, it's a matter of pain tolerance and how he feels with the injury as far as when he gets back," said head coach Dominic Kinnear.

You are Gnostic. This is a person who KNOWS that the existence of God is true; a person who claims as a matter of fact that God exists.
A Deist is a person that Believes in a God but not like religions teach. This God is the creator of everything but, most Deists dont think that God interacts with the world or our lives.
Because you are Gnostic about God, you claim to have knowledge that God is real. This is not about believing, it is about knowing. People who claim that they KNOW there is a God or KNOW that there is not a God, are not telling the truth. It takes demonstrable evidence to be able to claim knowledge. Just as you can prove there is a sun, that is the kind of thing you need to be able to back up a claim of knowledge. It would only be honest to say that no ones knows as a matter of fact if a God or Gods exist or not.
You are Secular. This means that you make your decisions about life by your own experience and try to think about whats best for everyone. This is the only way to have an equal society. You my be religious or believe in a God but, You don't let that impact your reasons for wanting the best for people.
Being undecided if you think there is or is not a God is a strange position to be in. If you think there is a God, you are a Theist. If you think there is no God, you are an Atheist. If you know, that would be gnostic, if you don't know, that would be agnostic. Being undecided would, in this case mean you are an agnostic Atheist

The word "default" gets thrown around a lot in the media, and it's also used by The White House to describe what will happen if the GOP doesn't raise the debt ceiling.
But this term remains controversial.
Some argue that default should be specifically used to mean a literal default on US debt... not making an interest payment on time.
Others argue that a default, even on Social Security, is a default. And they argue that missing a Social Security, in addition to being an economic calamity, would also have credit implications, because if you're a lender to the US, and you see the US missing major payments, then that tells you something big about the US' creditworthiness.
This view was promulgated by Tim Geithner, back in 2011, when he sent a letter to Pennsylvania Senator Pat Toomey, on why "prioritization' was unworkable:
As I also explained, however, the Treasury Department has reviewed your legislation and determined that it is unworkable and would not achieve your stated objective of protecting U.S. creditworthiness. In fact, the legislation would be quite harmful if enacted. A simple analogy may help illustrate the problem. A homeowner could decide to "prioritize" and continue paying monthly mortgage payments, while opting to cease paying other obligations, such as car payments, insurance premiums, student loan and credit card payments, utilities, and so forth. Although the mortgage would be paid, the damage to that homeowner's creditworthiness would be severe.
Almost every time you analogize the US economy to a household, you run into trouble, and here Geithner's view is problematic for two reasons.
For one thing, US debt doesn't trade like a "credit" (an entity for whom interest rates reflect risk of non-payment). US rates are about growth, inflation, etc. That's why, even though everyone and their cousin talks about how "unsustainable" US spending is, interest rates on US debt haven't gone up. And most likely, in a "prioritzation" government shutdown, there would be a rush into Treasuries, as growth would collapse.
But beyond that, you have to appreciate the unique role that Treasuries play in the financial system. Treasuries are basically the definition of safe asset. Numerous regulations for all kinds of entities all around the world are premised around "safe" behavior having money int Treasuries. There is no asset that has anywhere near the size, liquidity, and safety as US Treasuries. If you break that (by having the Treasury briefly miss an interest payment) you've basically sent the financial system in the 9th Circle Of Hell. Nobody has any idea what would happen.
Missing Social Security? Yeah, that would be bad. Missing a bond payment. You've basically lit a massive fire, and in the extreme heat, you've evaporated the liquidity from the financial system. It's a huge difference, and it's extremely useful to distinguish.
Of course, even in a "prioritization" you could have a debt default, because tax revenue and income payments are lumpy, and the Treasury could straight up run out of money to make a bond payment. So this isn't too be cavalier about breaching the debt ceiling. It's just a plea to use language in the most useful way possible.

Samsung's Galaxy S4 Zoom has showed up for pre-order at German e-tailer Cyberport.de for €499. European and US prices are usually the same, so it should be priced at around US $499 stateside.
In case you missed it earlier, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is powered by a dual-core 1.5GHz clocked CPU, 1.5GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage all squeezed behind a 4.3-inch 960x540 screen and running Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS.
What makes the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom special is a quite different approach to smartphone photography, which involves adding a proper digicam to the back of the smartphone. You'll get a 16-megapixel sensor with 10x optical zoom with F/3.1-F/6.3 lens backed by optical image stabilization. Unfortunately, the digicam also adds quite a lot to the waistline of the device.
The Galaxy S4 Zoom is not as expensive as we expected but it still apeals to quite a narrow market of consumers that would rather have a thicker smartphone with proper camera as opposed to a good but thinner smartphone and a digital camera as a separate device.

Our old friend Jon Wye has just released his newest T-Shirt which is part of his Pirate Chef series. The shirt is called The Mysterious Mr. Vegan Hunter and it features a fatherly rabbit who is relaxing in his rabbit-hole study, reminiscing on his days of great harvesting. He is even taking a little time to enjoy a good vintage of carrot juice whilst polishing his most trusted shovel.
I think the shirt features a super fun design that would have probably gone very well with the Threadless crowd if it had been submitted there. You'll also find the Pirate Chef logo printed on the back of the T-Shirt.
The Mysterious Mr. Vegan Hunter is printed on a super soft 100% combed cotton Olive T-Shirt and is available now from Jon Wye for $29. For extra savings, use the coupon code "5up" for $5 off your entire order!

Each level is different but the goal is the same: Kill yourself.
Core Information
Title: Karoshi 2.0
Genre/Category: Puzzle / Platform
Download Size: 9 mb
Game File-Type: Stand-Alone Executable
Resolution: Fullscreen (can be changed in menu)
Current Version: v1
Written In: Registered
Game Description
Karoshi 2.0 is more of what the first game already offered, but the puzzles this time are much more about different/unusual solutions then they are about shoving crates. I must say I'm very happy with the game, and it includes some really clever puzzles (esspecially the final few levels).
Complaints about Karoshi 1 were that the graphics weren't always that great, and that the game was too short. The sequel has a lot more levels (and is actually even longer than you think...) and I've done my best this time to make sure the presentation is great and that all graphics fit together.
- 42 levels
- Boss sequence that is well... I don't want to spoil it.
- Level editor (12 custom levels included too)
- Karoshi 1 speedrun mode
Level editor
The level editor is very easy and straight forward to use, and levels can be saved as .lvl files. You can also copy the code and post it on the forums, and other people can paste that into the game.
Karoshi 1 Speedrun mode
I noticed replaying Karoshi 1 was pretty fun, and many other people liked that too. Therefore, I included this mode, in which you have seven minutes (yes, a hint at Virtanen's game) to complete all levels. You can even try to beat my score (which is 2:04 time left).
Update: tjp7154 has beaten my record with 2:41 left, a difference of 37 seconds! Amazing. He even made a nice vid of it.

Well are you?
This level is not as simple as it looks.

Final Comments
Have fun, and please let me know what you think. : )
Also, if you haven't played Karoshi 1 yet, you can find the topic here.
However, it is not necessary to have played it before you start Karoshi 2.0. (Unless you play the speedrun mode perhaps).
Because I know people will ask:
"Karoshi" is japanese and means "death from overwork".
"mo-ichi-do" means "one more time".
If you get really stuck, you can find a walkthrough on IndieFAQS.

Rab Electric provides fixtures for Olympic Rings
Rab Electric Manufacturing, Northvale, N.J., had a visible presence at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City with its lighting fixtures. The company provided 1,850 industrial lighting fixtures to form the shape of the Olympic rings on a mountainside 5,000 ft above Salt Lake City.
Rab makes outdoor and industrial lighting and lighting-control sensors. The fixtures were each 140 ft in diameter. Electricians did the installation in December and January working in 5 ft of snow using snowmobiles and helicopters to transport equipment. Multiple generators provided power, and 24-hour guards prevented vandalism.
The Rab vapor-proof fixtures forming the rings had energy-efficient 42W compact fluorescent lamps totaling 77,000W to create the white and bright Olympic ring symbol.

Is SSD dead? No, however some vendors might beMay 3, 2012 – 3:41 pm
Is SSD dead? No, however some vendors might be
In a recent conversation with Dave Raffo about the nand flash solid state disk (SSD) market, we talked about industry trends, perspectives and where the market is now as well as headed. One of my comments is, has been and will remain that the industry has still not reached anywhere near full potential for deployment of SSD for enterprise, SMB and other data storage needs. Granted, there is broad adoption in terms of discussion or conversation and plenty of early adopters.
SSD and in particular nand flash is anything but dead, in fact in the big broad picture of things, it is still very early in the game. Sure, for those who cover and crave the newest, latest and greatest technology to talk about, nand flash SSD might seem old, yesterday news, long in the tooth and time for something else. However, for those who are focused on deployment vs. adoption such as customers, in general, nand flash SSD in its many packaging options has still not yet reached its full potential.
Despite the hype, fanfare from CEOs or their evangelist along with loyal followers of startups that help drive industry adoption (e.g. what is talked about), there is still lots of upside growth in the customer drive industry deployment (actually buying, installing and using) for nand flash SSD.
What about broad customer deployments?
Sure, there are the marquee customer success stories that you need a high-capacity SAS or SATA drive to hold the YouTube videos, slide decks, press releases for.
However, have we truly, reached broad customer deployment or broad industry adoption?
Hence, I see more startups coming into the market space, and some exiting on their own, via mergers and acquisition or other means.
Will we see a feeding frenzy or IPO craze as with earlier hype cycles of technologies, IMHO there will be some companies that get the big deal, some will survive as new players running as a business vs. running to be acquired or IPO. Others will survive by evolving into something else while others will join the where are they now list.
If you are a SSD startup, CEO, CxO, or marketer, their PR, evangelist or loyal follower do not worry as the SSD market and even nand flash is far from being dead. On the other hand, if you think that it has hit its full stride, you are missing either the bigger picture, or too busy patting yourselves on the back for a job well done. There is much more opportunity out there and not even all the low hanging fruit has been picked yet.

Jim Grammond is a Philadelphia comedian and host of the new Philly Improv Theater panel show Reasonable Discourse with Jerks, which will make its debut Wednesday, July 27th at 8:30PM. Jim also writes a blog and is very active on Twitter.
How and why did you get into comedy?
I got into stand-up comedy because growing up in the stand-up crazed 80's I loved it, everything from Bill Cosby to Sam Kinison. After watching it for years I finally thought I would try it.
How would you describe your style as a comedian? What influences and factors do you think contribute to that?
For me this is interesting (I guess) since I am coming back to comedy after a few years away. My previous style was kind of dry/angry/weird, which sort of reflected who I was. I'm still weird, but less dry and angry. So I'm trying to change my style now to reflect that.
Do you have a favorite show or venue you like to perform at? What about it makes it fun or special for you?
Helium's my traditional favorite, but I'm really enjoying the new venues that have opened up to comedy in the past few years, like the Shubin and Connie's Ric Rac. Most venues have some redeeming characteristics. Most.
Do you have a single favorite moment in Philly comedy or one that stands out?
Seeing a comic get off stage at the Laff House and go outside to fight an audience member. More than once.
Do you have any sort of creative process that you use with your writing or your performance? Or a sort of method that you use to develop comedic material?
My new favorite tool is Twitter. I'm on there at @jgrammond. It forces me to write concisely and is great for developing a premise for a new bit. I used to be very into memorizing the bits I wrote, but am trying to get away from that as it can sound really unnatural on stage.
What is it about stand-up that draws you to it?
I'm an attention-craving nerd who always wants to show I'm the smartest person in the room (even when I'm not, which is often). So stand-up is a natural place for that attitude I guess.
Do you have any favorite performers in the Philly scene? Why are they your favorites?
I'm going to answer this a little differently and mention the Philly comics who were just starting or really young when I went on my comedy hiatus who I think have gotten really good. That list includes people like you (note from the editor: I am Aaron Hertzog), Steve Gerben, Joey Dougherty, Blake Wexler, Pat Barker, Brendan Kennedy, Mary Radzinski, and I'm sure plenty more. I'm not even including the people who've moved away. I'm also glad Oakland or Oaklyn or whatever his name is is still around. He's a treasure.
Do you have any bad experiences doing comedy that you can share? A particularly bad bombing or even an entire show gone haywire?
I once did a show in the basement of a shady Phoenixville "bar"—I don't think they had a liquor license. It was like no one told them prohibition ended. There were five people in the audience and I was the only white person within eight blocks. Before the show, the police were there looking for a local young hoodlum named "Butt-Butt". I bombed real, real bad, but the after party was fun.
What do you think the Philly comedy scene needs to continue to grow?
It'd be great if a bunch of people could breakout of the stand-up scene here without having to move to NYC or LA first, like a comedy version of what Nirvana/Pearl Jam/Soundgarden did for people's impression of Seattle. It's cool that Luke Giordano just basically did that.
Also, the trend of doing and promoting stand-up shows in actual theaters rather than bars with makeshift stages has to continue. Bars are really hard to put on shows in. People in bars are usually there to drink and talk to their friends, not listen to weirdos with microphones.
Do you have any personal goals for the future as you continue to perform comedy?
It's nice right now that I don't have a real, ultimate goal. I know people say if you don't have a goal you won't be dedicated, but I'd rather just do it for fun right now and see where that leads. I will say my job-related-to-comedy goal would be a TV writing gig, preferably for a late night show.

The new focus: Early voting
Today is Election Day. And so is tomorrow. And the day after that.
By the end of September, voters in 30 states will start casting early or absentee ballots in the presidential race — a fact that both poses challenges for the campaigns seeking to make their final pitches as well as raises the stakes between now and Nov. 6.
Story Continued Below
Absentee ballots have been mailed out in key swing states like North Carolina, Virginia, Wisconsin and New Hampshire. In South Dakota and Idaho — firmly red states — early voting began Friday, and in-person early voting in the crucial swing state of Iowa begins this Thursday.
"It's no longer Election Day; it's election two months," said Pete Snyder, the Republican National Committee Victory chairman in Virginia.
Four years ago, just under 40 million people — about 30 percent of the total electorate that year — voted early, and experts expect that number to spike even higher in 2012.
Neither the Obama nor the Romney campaigns are taking any chances. Both are deploying aggressive turnout operations to target early voters and realize that they could make the difference in the tight race. Barack Obama won the early vote in 2008 by encouraging less traditional voters like the young and minority groups to turn out early, and is doing so again. Mitt Romney's camp says it isn't focused on any specific demographic groups in its early voting efforts.
Furthermore, the slew of voters casting their ballots this far out from Election Day significantly changes the calculation for campaigns and outside groups making decisions about where to invest their ad dollars. If a campaign or outside group is stockpiling its campaign cash for the final weeks and a third of voters have already voted, those ads won't make a bit of difference.
And when a good chunk of voters have already cast their ballots before they air, it's possible that debates won't have a widespread impact on the electorate.
"Early voting changes your thinking about when you put ads on the air," GOP pollster Whit Ayres said, adding that he thinks on the presidential level ad spending will be consistently high in the final stretch of the election.
The start of early voting also means that the daily tussle of the campaign — whether the release of Romney's secretly taped 47 percent remarks or the president's tough Univision interview — is likely to have outsize impact on voters' decision making. Where once a gaffe may have been ignored or unnoticed, it now may be the last thing a voter remembers before casting his or her ballot.
"When early voting begins, you want your campaign to be firing on all cylinders, be on the offense and have some momentum — which is clearly not where the Romney campaign is right now," said GOP strategist and John McCain '08 adviser Steve Schmidt.

Unicode 6.0 Includes New Pizza Slice Character
You may know Nick Sherman from his blog Pizza Rules! but by day he works in the typography industry. It's no surprise that he would be the one to discover the new pizza slice character in Unicode 6.0, the Unicode Consortium's latest update of computer symbols. I'll quote Nick for the layman's explanation:
Earlier this month, the Unicode Consortium published version 6.0.0 of their Unicode Standard - a computing standard that deals with character encoding and representation. I won't get too far in to it, but the basic idea of Unicode is to enable people around the world to use computers in any language.
The release of Unicode 6.0 adds 2,088 characters, with over 1,000 new symbols, including the new Indian rupee symbol, and - most relevant to the topic of pizza - a set of symbols for use in text messaging...
Nick's got more musings in his blog post on what this could mean for the pizza-eating, computer-usin', text-message nerds out there.

An increasing number of outpatients are undergoing GI endoscopy. The pressure of this extra work has led to Endoscopy Units becoming increasingly vulnerable to inadequacies in their process of obtaining valid consent from every patient.
Obtaining valid consent is a process that underpins an important quality standard of our engagement with patients. It is a standard that is regularly assessed by the NHS Litigation Authority (NHSLA) as part of their regular quality standards assessments of hospital Trusts.
In 2001 the Department of Health (DoH) issued guidance on the process of obtaining consent and, as a result, model consent forms 1-4 were introduced. However, these changes produced practical problems for clinical services (including endoscopy) where high volumes of outpatients undergo low risk procedures.
In response to these problems and as an initiative to improve standards, the Endoscopy Committee of the BSG set up a Working Party to look at the possibility of obtaining remote or postal consent. Dr Hugh Shepherd at Winchester has piloted this process using procedure-specific booklets over a number of years. The postal consent booklets and their unique, procedure-specific accompanying consent forms were designed both to improve the consenting process and also to conform to DoH guidelines, retaining the "look and feel" of the model consent forms.
The booklets cover most common outpatient endoscopic procedures and are designed to be sent to patients well in advance of their appointment.
These booklets were finally approved by the Endoscopy Committee in June 2006. DoH model consent forms 1-4 should be used for all inpatients and for procedures not covered by the range of booklets.
The use of a remote consenting process should reduce the need for taking consent solely by the endoscopist. It should also discourage the signing of the consent form in the procedure room, a practice that does not conform with NHSLA guidance and is considered of such importance that is a standard that is soon to be incorporated into the GRS scoring assessment.
On the web site you will find the paired files of the various booklets and specific consent forms which can be downloaded for you to customise to a limited extent. A 'frequently asked questions' (FAQ) section has also been compiled to deal with the most common enquiries.
The working group and BSG Endoscopy Committee hope that you find this initiative of practical value in your unit. The booklets are currently only available in English, but if well received will be translated.

Marseille, 22 October 2013 - A new IUCN report identifying gaps in marine World Heritage was launched today at the 3rd International Marine Protected Areas Congress (IMPAC). The study provides a road map to ensure the World Heritage Convention reflects the diversity of marine ecosystems in future nominations.
The World Heritage List includes a relatively small number of sites explicitly recognized for their outstanding universal marine values. Today, it counts 46 marine sites spanning across 35 countries.
This represents about 20% of the natural World Heritage and less than 5% of the total World Heritage. Yet oceans and seas make up over 70% of Earth's surface and 95% of its habitable space.
Strikingly, less than 3% of the world's oceans and under 0.2% of high seas are currently protected. World Heritage covers about a quarter of this area.
Marine World Heritage features mainly tropical ecosystems; as a consequence temperate and polar ecosystems are underrepresented.
Over three quarters of the planet's nearshore areas (under 200 meters deep) either include no World Heritage at all or contain sites with just 1% marine coverage. Likewise, a large proportion of deep-sea habitats do not have any World Heritage sites.
This means the full range of irreplaceable values in these marine ecosystems are bypassed. For example, there are no marine World Heritage sites in the Antarctic, Gulf Stream, Sunda Shelf or Andaman.
One challenge to applying World Heritage to the marine environment to date has been the lack of a clear definition for marine features of potential outstanding universal values.
To overcome this, the study proposes 16 themes, including for example ocean currents, ice, seamounts or diversity of marine life, that can help identify, nominate and inscribe sites representing the most outstanding examples.
This is part of a wider analysis of the approaches that can be adopted to fill marine heritage gaps. The study encourages further regional and global analyses to identify priority areas for potential inclusion on the World Heritage List.
"The World Heritage Convention needs to address the diversity of the marine realm to ensure it can make a relevant contribution to the challenges that face our planet in the 21st Century," says Tim Badman, Director of IUCN World Heritage Programme.
"Currently, about 40% of marine sites are coral reefs; a balanced World Heritage List would also need to include other types of ecosystems, such as kelp forests, seamounts, rocky reefs or polar habitats. This study provides better guidance for nations to achieve this."
Marine Natural Heritage and the World Heritage List is the second IUCN gap analysis, with a first study identifying terrestrial gaps published earlier this year. Their aim is to help build a representative, balanced and credible World Heritage List by providing a scientific framework to inform decisions when nominating and inscribing new sites.
IUCN is the advisory body on nature to the World Heritage Committee. The report was supported by the Arab Regional Centre for World Heritage with funds from the Kingdom of Bahrain. Additional support was provided by the German Nature Conservation Agency (BfN) and the MAVA Foundation.

2011 X2 Ilmor winterization
This is my first year winterizing my boat. I decided to store it in my heated garage but still want to winterize it like it was outside just incase. I drained the Raw water, exhaust and engine block water and changed the oil/filter. I haven't added the pink marine anti freeze yet as I read that some are not good with aluminum heads. I'm confused now. I'm also not exactly sure what hose to disconnect to fill with anti freeze. There are more then a few that come off the thermostat. Any other thing that I should do? I'm all ears...
Everybody seems to have a different take on how to winterize the block but it sounds to me like you've gone the traditional way which is how I do it also. You state that you've drained the block and the exhaust. By this I'm assuming that you've disconnected the hose that runs between the two exhaust manifolds and let it drain and drained the block on both sides of the engine underneath the exhausts right? I ask because not everyone knows there are two drains for the block and draining both is critical.
Assuming you have completed both these steps correctly the next step would be to locate the large hoses just under the thermostat. One will go to the raw water pump the other to the block. You want to the one going to the block. Take the hose off at the top and start pouring marine antifreeze (I use the -60 antifreeze with corrosion protection that West Marine sells) into the hose until it start coming out the housing where you disconnected the hose from. When you see the antifreeze coming out the housing you'll know that the antifreeze has filled the block all the way to the level of the housing. Be sure to also disconnect the hose coming from the bottom of the boat to the trans cooler and clean out any debris that may be there. This will also ensure there isn't any water left in the trans cooler. I also like to pull the impeller for inspection/replacement. This will also ensure there isn't any water left in the pump to freeze. I will typically also remove the hoses going to the exhaust manifolds and pour antifreeze into to them also. This is kind of overkill as the design of the manifolds should allow for complete drainage when you disconnect the drain hose. For me though it's "better safe than sorry".
This is the procedure I've used for years on Correct Crafts, Malibus, MasterCrafts and Supras that I've worked on for myself and friends without a single incident. It's pretty straight forward and you know the block is filled when your done. I will say though that I have not worked on an Ilmor however I doubt it would be much different.
Thanks. I think we are both in the same neck of the woods. I'm also in Brighton MI.
Here's a picture of the Ilmor engine. The Thermostat is under the air filter correct?
Hmmm where about? I'm at Maltby and Brighton Lake.
Yep the hose going to the water pump will fill the block.
Makes sense because that is the only hose that has a standard radiator clap on it so it looks like someone took that off before.
I'm off of Silver lake road on a lake called Hidden Lake. Were just a few miles from each other.

The New York Times wrote a respectful story about religion in the public square. Here's the lede:
Once again, science, religion and politics have become entwined in a thorny public policy debate. This time, however, the discussion is not about abortion, birth control or health insurance mandates.
It's about wolves.
Apparently the Wisconsin legislature is considering authorizing a hunting season on wolves. It's been approved by the Senate already. Hunters love it, the politicians are generally on board, wildlife biologists have some questions, and one religious group opposes it on principle:
But the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Game Commission, which represents 11 tribes of the Ojibwe (also known as the Chippewa, or Anishinaabe) in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan, opposes the hunt on the basis of religious principle and tradition.
In written testimony presented to both legislative houses, James Zorn, the executive administrator of the commission, said, "In the Anishinaabe creation story we are taught that Ma'iingan (wolf) is a brother to Original man." He continued, "The health and survival of the Anishinaabe people is tied to that of Ma'iingan." For that reason the tribes are opposed to a public hunt.
Joe Rose Sr., a professor emeritus of Native American studies at Northland College in Ashland, Wis., and an elder of the Bad River Band, said in an interview that he saw a collision of world views. "We don't have stories like Little Red Riding Hood, or the Three Little Pigs, or the werewolves of Transylvania," he said. Wolf, or Ma'iingan, is a sacred creature, and so even keeping the population of wolves to minimum levels runs counter to traditional beliefs.
The story explains that the Ojibwe have rights in the lands, although it's not made very clear what those rights are. They can claim half the biological harvest and must be consulted about decisions such as the wolf hunt. The story acknowledges that it's not clear what that means for the wolf hunt, but it may have been helpful to spell out exactly why things aren't clear. Which leads us to this paragraph:
What is clear is that the opposition of the Ojibwe is more like objections to funding for abortions or birth control than it is the calculations of scientists, not in political tone, but in its essence.
Again, I think this could have been spelled out much better. I can think of some reasons why this could be akin to the HHS mandate (and some why it would be different) but I'm not a religious liberty attorney or expert and could use some help clarifying those thoughts from someone who is.
Other than that, though, the story has some nice details about the wolf population and does a good job of letting Anishinaabe describe the situation in their own words.

The Hope Summer Repertory Theatre kicks off its 39th season with Into the Woodsby Stephen Sondheim, a twisted version of everyone's favorite childhood fairytales, opening June 18th at 8 p.m. at Hope College's DeWitt Theatre.
The Hope Summer Repertory Theatre kicks off its 39th season with Into the Woodsby Stephen Sondheim, a twisted version of everyone's favorite childhood fairytales, opening June 18th at 8 p.m. at Hope College's DeWitt Theatre.
At long last the genius of Stephen Sondheim comes to our stage, in his most beloved work. Drawing from the classic tales of Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Ridinghood and Rapunzel, Sondheim's great music weaves their stories together in this intricate grown-up version. While charming and funny, these familiar characters may answer your own questions about why your life doesn't seem to be as easy as a fairytale. Actions have consequences and wishes may not be granted as expected, but each hero learns something valuable in the end. This production is not recommended for children under 13.
Returning for his fifth season is Equity Guest Artist, David Studwell, playing the Narrator who winds the whole tale together and the Mysterious Man. David has been seen in other HSRT roles such as James Leads in Children of a Lesser God, Father Flynn in Doubt, and Horton in Suessical. He recently returned from India where he was featured in the upcoming Tamil language film Suzhal and has received two Santa Barbara Indy Awards for his work in Sweeney Todd and Boy Gets Girl, as well as three Joseph Jefferson nominations for his work in Chess, South Pacific (Emil), and Rothschilds.
Here for her first season is Catherine Stephani, also an Equity Guest Artist, playing The Witch. Cat attended Ithaca College, graduating with a B.F.A. in Acting in 2009. Most recently, Cat just returned from four months at sea singing for the Norwegian Cruise Lines. She was also honored with a S.A.L.T. award for Outstanding Actress of the Season for her work as Maureen in Rent at the Hangar Theatre in Ithaca, New York last summer. Cat can also been seen this summer as Lala in The Last Night of Ballyhoo.
Directing the production is HSRT favorite, David Colacci, who is returning for his twenty-fifth season with HSRT and nineteenth as Artistic Director. Recent productions David has directed include Room Service, Kiss Me, Kate, Godspell, Seussical, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Romeo and Juliet, Oliver, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Shakespeare in Hollywood. Among the roles he has played are Charlie in The Foreigner, Morgan in The Drawer Boy, Mark in Art, Queeg in The Canine Mutiny Court Martial, Nicely in Guys and Dolls, Lenny in Rumors, Frank in Educating Rita, Billy in Billy Bishop Goes to War, and Oscar in The Odd Couple. He has also won numerous awards as a narrator of audio books, including an Audie nomination this year for Philip Pan's Out of Mao's Shadow. David will also be staring in this season's I Do! I Do! with his wife Susan Ericksen.
Performances continue throughout the summer on June 19, 24, 29, July 1, 7, 14, 16, 22, 27, and 31.
Tickets are now on sale through the DeWitt and DeVos Fieldhouse ticket offices. Prices range from $10-$26 for musicals and $8-$19 for plays. Season tickets, ranging from $48-$85, are also available. A Family Four Pack, including tickets for two adults and two children, is available this year for $55.
The ticket office is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Beginning June 14 the ticket office is open on Saturdays at noon. On performance dates, the DeWitt Ticket Office will be open through intermission. The ticket office is located in DeWitt Cultural Center at 12th Street and Columbia Avenue. For tickets call the ticket office at 616-395-7890. For more information visit the HSRT website at www.hope.edu/hsrt.
The DeWitt Theatre is located at 141 East 12th street. The Knickerbocker Theatre is located in Holland's downtown on 8th street.
HSRT is now on facebook! Keep up to date with what's happening this season by searching Hope Summer Repertory Theatre on www.facebook.com.

~ snowflakes, a mood blanket update, and Sami ~
I've crocheted some snowflakes using Pepsi can tabs, and then stiffened them with Mod Podge glitter.
The colored tabs came from my nephew Spencer, so I am going to call them my 'Spencer snowflakes'.
I know Christmas is over, but there is always next Christmas.
Here's my '2016 mood blanket' so far. 9 squares down, 357 to go.
As you can see from my color chart, I am using all shades of each color so I can have many colors in my blanket.
For example - I have 2 shades of pink in my blanket so far, but they both mean 'happy'.
In my last post I showed you the aqua hat I crocheted for Sami and I hoped that she would like it.
I think she does. ♥
See you next time. :)

2015 crochet mood blanket

~ Happy New Year my friends ~
I've crocheted a couple hats for this little cutie. She seems to like the grey one - I'll have to see if she likes the aqua one on Monday when she gets here.
I'm taking care of her while her Momma works.
I received a 'guardian grandmas' donation from Carolyn Michalek.
She was busy crocheting all these adorable baby hats.
Thank you so much Carolyn. ♥
This little square is the beginning of my 2016 crochet mood blanket.
It measures 3 1/2" so I should be able to crochet 365 of them before the blanket gets too big.
(I crocheted stripes for my 2014 crochet mood blanket and I had to stop around the 6th month.)
We'll see how it goes.
I post a lot on Instagram, so if anyone is interested you can follow me there. My name is debi_y
Thanks for dropping by - I wish you all good health and happiness for the new year. :)

We're committed to helping our people succeed professionally and personally. We have a pragmatic approach to supporting individuals in meeting commitments in and out of the office. We have formal flexible working arrangements defined under 'My Life' for our employees. Through discussion, we work together to agree on a framework that meets the needs of our business, our teams, our clients and those of our people. It's an approach that allows you to manage family commitments, or pursue personal passions outside of work. We're proud that some of our people have participated in the Olympics, written novels, exhibited paintings and recorded albums alongside pursuing a career at EY.
You want to realize your ambitions and advance your career and we want to help you get there. We have a learning and development framework called EYU (EY and you) that will help you identify and make the most of the learning, experiences and coaching you need.

At EY we have a culture that truly fosters mobility, so if you have a proven track record, and the right skills and qualifications and matches the guidelines, we encourage you to work with your manager to explore the global opportunities that are available through various short- and long-term secondments.

There's no typical week at EY. Your hours will vary according to the work or engagement in which you're involved. Occasionally, there may be some weekend work, particularly during busy periods. We encourage teams at all levels to work flexibly and discuss and negotiate how to meet the demands of each engagement. By communicating regularly with your team and supervisor, you'll be able to understand their expectations and plan your time effectively.
We're committed to creating an environment where all people feel valued, are part of the community and are able to perform at their best. Diversity and inclusiveness are about everyone. It's about welcoming and harnessing diverse viewpoints, and about how this leads to making better decisions for us and for our clients.

We believe in developing our people's cultural awareness and skills, including helping them to be aware of their own assumptions, frames of reference and behaviors.

We recognize that we have a corporate responsibility to the environment and believe in making it possible for our people to contribute on an individual basis. As an organization, we've taken a voluntary pledge to become carbon neutral by 2020. In the same pursuit, we've implemented various strategies. For example, developing carbon neutral buildings; reducing the need for overseas travel through the use of video and teleconferencing; and sourcing green energy suppliers wherever possible. As an individual, you can participate in one of the eco-teams in our offices that promote responsible practices or you can contribute your time to a charity or organization that benefits the environment.
We support volunteering and strongly encourage you to support your community in any way you can. The EY CSR club at each location gives our people a platform to come together and participate beyond donating in CSR initiatives in their location. About 2000 people have volunteered to be a part of this club.
Our people provide their professional skills and capabilities by serving on not-for-profit boards, supporting schools, mentoring students, assisting high-impact entrepreneurs and striving to reduce our environmental footprint. We call it skills based volunteering and it gives our people extra experience in project management, teamwork and leadership.
Some of the employee volunteer initiatives are : Sponsor a child's education, My NGO, Charities Aid Foundation India (CAF) – Give as you earn program, Running for a cause at Marathon, Voluntary blood donation drives, Clothes donation drive, Adopting schools / NGOs, Books donation drive and NGO melas.
We value the contribution that working parents make to our organization and are committed to supporting them professionally and personally. We recognize there is more to life than work. Women in particular sometimes feel more pressure around family and work issues. Our encouragement of working mothers in the workplace has been recognized in many countries as leading class.
We pride ourselves on offering a supportive environment that encourages our people to succeed professionally and personally. We have defined extended maternity, Paternity and Adoption leave policy in the system that supports the working parents to manage personal commitments.
At EY, we are committed to building life-long relationships with our people. Many of our practices throughout the world run successful alumni programs to bring previous and existing EY people together.
