Australia is amazing and I want to visit all of it. Paul French thinks the same but he's actually doing it. French is going to walk around Australia—from Perth to Sydney (2553 miles)—in a Stormtrooper outfit.
French is walking in an effort to raise money for the Starlight Foundation, an organization that helps sick children in Australia. He hopes to average about 25 miles a day for 5 days a week (which means he'll probably get to Sydney around half a year from now). I don't know why he chose the Stormtrooper outfit but it's definitely an attention grabber—I would've went with something that didn't chafe though.

The Microsoft Office suite takes up a lot of memory, both in hard drive space and in RAM. The full and complete package of Office costs more than some people's mortgage payments. Fortunately, Office is not the only option available to get the work done. Here are ten FREE alternatives to what Microsoft Office has to offer.
- Google Docs (Web Based): The Web Based Google Docs is an easy to use set of applications that users can create word processing documents, spreadsheets and presentations. You can share these documents with friends and coworkers quite effectively with the push of a few buttons.
- Open Office (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux): Open Office is a great solution for those who are looking for a free open source alternative to the Microsoft family. The suite offers a great open source alternative to the Microsoft family of products. The suite has word processing, a database program, a spreadsheet application and a layout program to create most documents.
- KOffice (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux): There are eight packages in this suite, including a spreadsheet, presentation software, project planning and image editing. It is fast, functional and open source.
- NeoOffice 3.1.1 (Mac OS X): NeoOffice took the features of OpenOffice and expanded them to be Mac specific. This offers the same programs in OpenOffice and streamlined them specifically for the Mac user. It is faster than OpenOffice, and uses the Mac OSX Leopard grammar checking features.
- Lotus Symphony (Windows): Lotus Symphony diverges from its OpenOffice base by offering a browser-like system of creating and editing documents. Three tools are offered: word processing, spreadsheets and presentation. In the word processing application, you can use templates, spellcheck and insert your own creations into the document.
- Zoho (Web Based): Zoho aims to be a comprehensive set of applications like Google docs. There are programs for writing and spreadsheets, but the Zoho suite goes beyond that by offering a wiki, a planner, email and CRM.
- GnomeOffice (Linux, Windows): This was a Linux suite in the beginning, catering to those users with a word processor and a spreadsheet program. It has since expanded to the Windows arena, allowing you to take your documents anywhere with the Open Document format. Gnumeric, the spreadsheet program, offers 189 functions that are not available anywhere else.
- ThinkFree (Web Based): ThinkFree allows you to open Excel spreadsheets, MS Word Docs and PowerPoint presentations. The tools are Web Based, requiring a login that can be coordinated through your Google account. You have the option of collaborating with others. Being a Web Based system, it is accessible from anywhere that has an internet connection.
- Jarte (Word Processor, Windows): Jarte is self-described as 'a fast starting, easy to use word processor that expands well beyond the Wordpad feature set.' You can insert photos and tables and export to html or PDF formats. You can also send documents out via email.
- Atlantis Nova (Word Processor, Windows): The claim to fame for Atlantis Nova is that you get all of the traditional tools for word processing, but you don't have to worry about it chewing up processing power. The basic version of the program is free, or you can choose to pay $35 for registration.
Free is a great price to pay for these applications, so give them a shot and see what you like. By the way, Jun has previously written about several free and open source office suites for Linux that you may also want to check out.

"Pilot" - (TV-14, D, L, S)
Wednesday, September 22 2004 Debut
CONDITIONS ARE ABOUT TO GET NASTY - "The Mountain" chronicles the larger-than-life saga of the Carvers, whose colorful patriarch founded the town and its internationally famous ski resort, then shocked the family by leaving his empire in the hands of his free-spirited grandson David Carver, Jr., (Oliver Hudson, "Dawson's Creek"). Now, David finds himself saddled with a responsibility he never wanted and an older brother (Anson Mount, "Tully," "Crossroads") who rightly feels betrayed. Meanwhile, the Carvers must deal with the ambitious Colin Dowling (Mitch Pileggi, "The X-Files"), who will stop at nothing to gain control of Boundary Mountain, including using his own children. Tara Thompson, Penn Badgley, Elizabeth Bogush, Alana De La Garza, Tommy Dewey, Johann Urb and Barbara Hershey also star. David Barrett directed the episode. The story is by Gina Matthews & Grant Scharbo and David Barrett and the teleplay is by Stephanie Savage and Shaun Cassidy (#100).

The City of Reno will unveil more than 70 new signs this morning. It's an effort to tell visitors that there are other things to do in Reno besides gamble.
Traditionally tourists were trapped in the casino corridor on Virginia Street, not sure that there is anything else to do in Reno. "We have been walking around since we have been here and we are looking for what is on the sign besides the casinos ourselves," says tourist Lee Gray.
Now, he can look at 74 new signs in 37 locations, pointing to landmarks like museums, concert venues and the ballpark. The city is trying to tell people that there are new things to do. Scott Dunseath runs the visitor center.
"If you walk around Reno you will see directional signs for pedestrians around Reno, but they are antiquated and outdated and not necessarily relevant," says Scott Dunseath of the Reno Visitor Center.
Dunseath says the next step is to put signs on Interstate 80.

"Catholics for a Free Choice" Not Catholic
Catholics for a Free Choice "has no affiliation, formal or otherwise, with
the Catholic Church," according to the Administrative Committee of the National
Conference of Catholic Bishops. The committee said that during the August visit
by Pope John Paul II to World Youth Day in Denver, "programs about dissent in
the Catholic Church often included a spokesperson for a group calling itself
Catholics for a Free Choice. Both before and since World Youth Day, because of
CFFC's presuming to speak for American Catholics and because of the attention
the media have paid to the group, many people, including Catholics, may be led
to believe that it is an authentic Catholic organization. It is not."
The statement said, "Catholics for a Free Choice is
associated with the pro-abortion lobby in Washington, D.C. It attracts public
attention by its denunciations of basic principles of Catholic morality and
teaching." Most funding for CFFC "is from secular foundations supporting legal
abortion in this country and abroad. It shares an address and funding sources
with the National Abortion Federation, a trade association which seeks to
advance the financial and professional interests of abortionists," said the
In a four-page response, CFFC said the bishops' statement does not "render us
any less Catholic, nor does it make our work any less worthwhile." CFFC said it
"makes no claim to speak for the institutional church, rather we claim quite
rightly that the positions we take reflect the view of many, often the majority,
of Catholics." Denise Shannon, CFFC communications director, said the group was
founded in 1973 and had a mailing list of about 13,000 people. But she said it
is primarily an educational group, not a membership organization.
The bishops" committee said: "It is important to educate the public,
especially Catholics, about CFFC's insistence on claiming a Catholic label. This
group has rejected unity with the church on important issues of long-standing
and unchanging church teaching. In fact there is no room for dissent by a
Catholic from the church's moral teaching that direct abortion is a grave
wrong." CFFC "can in no way speak for the Catholic Church and its 59 million
members in the United States," the committee said.

You've taken this pretty seriously, I'm really impressed and deeply moved . I too think that we should make it more like a talk between friends rather than having you do all the work, although you still have to do most of it I'm afraid.
LoGiCaL__ wrote:I'm glad to see this start to take off. I had the opportunity to attend the last "set" of lectures and it was worth while. It was basically just everyone who was there introduces their self and who ever was speaking spoke, and if anyone had anything to add they did. Also, there was a Q & A aspect of the lecture.

Basically, the lecture could be summed up by, 1)go to irc to chat whith others while the person is talking(#lectures), and 2)join ventrilo to listen/communicate. Afterwards there was just a "hang around and talk about whatever session". The irc portion is for people who could join ventrilo and hear, but who didn't have a mic. They could ask questions that way. Obviously if you had a mic you would ask a question or chime in on ventrilo.

My hats off to you. Looking forward to attending.

July 27 will mark the 60th anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended the fighting in the Korean War.
Unfortunately, that piece of paper never really ended the conflict on the Asian peninsula where nearly 34,000 U.S. military personnel died from 1950 to 1953.
We were reminded of that last week when the U.N. Security Council, for the fourth time, hammered communist North Korea with sanctions for refusing to abandon its nuclear program, leading that rogue country to overtly threaten a nuclear attack on the U.S.
North Korea ratified the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in 1985; and in a 1992 agreement with South Korea pledged not to produce, test or use nuclear weapons. However, it withdrew from the treaty in 2003 and since 2006 has conducted three nuclear tests, the last one in February. In December, it launched what it called a �weather satellite� on top of a ballistic missile.
All that was in direct defiance of Security Council resolutions. Prior U.N. sanctions against North Korea were ineffective. The latest ones, which were adopted unanimously, are brutal, basically targeting anything that could be used to further the country�s nuclear and missile programs.
They also have the backing of China, which for years has been one of North Korea�s few friends, if not its No. 1 benefactor, but doesn�t need this nonsense from its pesky pal as it continues cleaning up its own act and transitioning to a market economy.
North Korea�s response was predictable. It�s threatened to cancel the 1953 armistice and other various agreements while telling its military to mobilize for �all-out war.� It also vowed to retaliate if another country steps a toe across its border, and it�s promised to engulf Washington in a �sea of (nuclear) fire.�
No one thinks it�s presently capable of following up on the last threat, although you tend to take notice when someone says he�s going to nuke you (and the U.S. made sure to point out its defensive capabilities against any attack).
It�s all a lot of bluster right now. Once the bluster dissipates and North Korea feels the pain of these latest sanctions and sees how united the world community is here, we hope it gets the message (maybe with a little ear-whispering from China) that its nuclear pretensions have to go.

Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children is one of the only pediatric hospitals in the country to offer a MAP Program. It's staffed by expert specialists who treat the complex needs of children with genetic syndromes associated with an important process in the body called the "Ras/MAPK signaling pathway" (short for "mitogen activated protein kinases").
The body is made up of cells, which carry instructions, of sorts, that tell them how to grow and act. These instructions are called "genes." The genetic syndromes associated with Ras/MAPK can affect the way a child's organs were formed, the way kids look, the way they grow, and the way they learn.
The following genetic syndromes are all caused by changes in genes that affect the Ras/MAPK signaling pathway. And they're all part of our comprehensive MAP Program care:
- Cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC)
- Costello syndrome
- Legius syndrome
- Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)
- Noonan syndrome

If your child has an Ras/MAPK-related syndrome, you can count on Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children and our specialized team of MAP Program specialists, nurses, genetic counselors, and therapists.
We provide comprehensive, personalized pediatric medical management for children with these very specific overlapping genetic conditions.
From diagnosis to treatment, our MAP Program experts use a coordinated care approach — with a team of specialists dedicated to addressing your child's very specific, individualized needs.
Genetic Syndromes Treated by Our MAP Program
The following genetic syndromes are all caused by changes in genes that affect the Ras/MAPK signaling pathway. And they're all part of our comprehensive MAP Program care:
Cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (or CFC, for short) is a rare genetic condition that affects the heart, facial features, and skin. CFC is a defined group of congenital (present at birth) physical differences affecting many organ systems.
What are the characteristics and effects of CFC?
The physical differences of CFC include:
- sparse eyebrows
- really curly hair
- areas of thick skin
- small stature (short height)
Some children with CFC also may have:
- congenital heart defects (heart problems they were born with)
- seizures
- significant trouble with learning
- issues with feeding difficulties and failure to thrive in early childhood
- speech delays and difficulty walking as they grow into middle and late childhood
How is CFC diagnosed?
Doctors can tell if your child has CFC by making a "clinical diagnosis." That just means the diagnosis is based on the results of a physical examination and your child's medical history. Then the diagnosis is confirmed by genetic testing performed on a sample of your child's blood (taken using a routine blood test). The testing process looks for the specific mutation associated with CFC (or what makes the gene different from a "normal" gene).
How is CFC treated?
There's no standard treatment for CFC. Based on your child's symptoms, our team of specialists will work together and with you to develop a plan to help your child reach his or her full potential.
Costello syndrome (or Costello, for short) is a rare disorder that's actually a distinct collection of congenital (present at birth) physical differences that affects multiple organ systems and causes developmental delay. Children diagnosed with Costello syndrome typically have multiple medical and developmental needs.
First described in medical literature in 1971, the cause of Costello syndrome is not yet known. If your child has been diagnosed with Costello Syndrome, you can be sure that we'll do whatever it takes to address those needs.
Through our MAP Program, we collaborate and coordinate care with pediatric subspecialists who are knowledgeable about this rare disorder and its associated medical problems. We also participate in research related to this disorder and stay on top of ongoing Costello research and information worldwide.
What are the characteristics and effects of Costello syndrome?
Children with Costello generally have:
- severe failure to thrive and feeding problems in early childhood
- loose skin with deep creases in the hands
- abnormalities in the positioning of their hands and feet
- loose joints and low muscle tone
- delayed milestones
During later childhood, a child may have short stature (short height), tight Achilles tendons, and skin tags. Kids with Costello syndrome also are at risk for severe medical problems (like heart rhythm abnormalities, thickened heart muscle, and tumors).
How is Costello syndrome diagnosed?
Doctors can tell if your child has Costello syndrome by making a "clinical diagnosis." That just means the diagnosis is based on the results of a physical examination and your child's medical history. Then the diagnosis is confirmed by genetic testing performed on a sample of your child's blood (taken using a routine blood test). The testing process looks for the specific mutation associated with Costello syndrome (or what makes the gene different from a "normal" gene).
Because Costello syndrome is very rare, it can often take general community health care providers a long time to detect it. But getting an earlier diagnosis by our leading experts means that your child can have any related medical problems identified and treated as soon as possible.
How is Costello syndrome treated?
There is no specific treatment for Costello syndrome. Every child is different, so the appropriate medical care will depend on your child's specific issues and physical symptoms.
Named after Eric Legius, a clinical geneticist in Belgium, Legius syndrome is caused by mutations (a change in the genetic instructions of the body's cells) in a specific gene called the "SPRED1 gene."
What are the characteristics and effects of Legius syndrome?
Children with Legius syndrome (or Legius, for short) usually have multiple "café au lait birthmarks." The phrase "café au lait" is French for "milky coffee" and refers to the light-brown color of the birthmarks. Health care providers often initially identify these marks as neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). That's why Legius is also sometimes called "neurofibromatosis type 1-like syndrome (or NFLS)".
But there's a distinct difference between Legius and NF1: Children with Legius syndrome don't have the neurofibromas (round lumps under the skin) found in children with NF1. So it's important to make the distinction between the two, since the treatment and specialists needed may be different.
Children with Legius syndrome also commonly share a set of symptoms, such as:
- a large head (macroencephaly)
- learning disabilities
- attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
- developmental delays
How is Legius syndrome diagnosed?
We diagnose Legius through genetic testing. And we offer all the genetic testing necessary to reach an accurate diagnosis for this often misdiagnosed genetic syndrome in children.
How is Legius syndrome treated?
We offer a coordinated, collaborative approach to treatment, with access to our genetics specialists and any other specialists your child may need, including from:
Legius syndrome does not have a specific course of treatment used for all children, since every child's needs are different. So our team of specialists can provide all of the medical treatment, behavioral, physical and occupational therapy necessary for your child.
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (also called NF1 or neurofibromatosis 1, for short) is a genetic disorder that affects the brain, spinal cord, nerves, skin, and other systems in the body. At duPont Hospital for Children's MAP Program, we meet the staffing and clinical genetic consulting parameters set by the National Neurofibromatosis Foundation and Neurofibromatosis, Inc.
How is NF1 diagnosed?
Our specialists diagnose NF1, often based on the unique symptoms and signs of neurofibromatosis, including:
- colored, raised spots (Lisch nodules) on the colored part (iris) of the eye
- fracture of the long bones of the leg in early childhood
- many brown birthmarks ("café au lait birthmarks" that are the color of milky coffee) or freckling in the armpits or groin
- large lumps/tumors under the skin (neurofibromas), which can affect a child's appearance and put pressure on nearby nerves or organs. As the tumors increase in size, they can cause problems in the way the body functions. These tumors are almost always benign (noncancerous) – it's rare for them to become malignant (cancerous).
- mild cognitive impairment, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and learning disorders
Tests may include an eye exam by an ophthalmologist familiar with NF1, genetic tests to find a change (mutation) in the neurofibromin gene, and other specific tests for some of the side effects of the condition.
How is NF1 treated?
Children with NF1 often have multiple medical and developmental needs.
We address those needs with a collaborative program in which your child has access to the expertise of specialists in:
- Developmental Pediatrics
- Genetics
- Orthopedics
- Neurology
- Psychology
- Speech Therapy
- other medical and therapeutic areas
Working together, we create a course of treatment for your child that includes:
- removing the neurofibromas for cosmetic purposes
- treating any complications the neurofibromas may have caused, including scoliosis (abnormal curving of the spine) and long bone deformities
We'll then monitor your child for any cancerous changes in the tumors and provide support for any speech or learning disabilities and self-esteem issues.
As your child approaches 18 years old, we'll work with you to transition your child to adult care. Adult patients with NF1 are referred to local specialists in Delaware or to adult genetics centers in Philadelphia.
Note: Because neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), a variation of the disease that causes tumors on the nerves in the ear, typically doesn't begin to show symptoms until adulthood, we do not see patients with NF2 at our program. However, we can refer children with this disorder to other doctors and facilities as necessary.
Noonan syndrome (or NS, for short) is named after Dr. Jacqueline Noonan, a pediatric cardiologist best known for her work in defining the condition. It's believed that between approximately 1 in 1,000 and 1 in 2,500 children worldwide are born with NS.
Noonan syndrome is one of the most common genetic syndromes associated with congenital heart disease. But because the range and severity of features can vary greatly in people with NS, the syndrome is not always identified at an early age.
What are the characteristics and effects of Noonan syndrome?
Noonan syndrome is marked by a particular set of physical characteristics, such as short stature, with a webbed neck and a flat nose bridge. In fact, NS is considered to be a type of dwarfism, which affects both girls and boys equally.
Some children have low-set ears and/or droopy upper eyelids, impaired blood clotting, learning problems, and mental disability.
Noonan syndrome is also associated with heart defects and learning problems, so an accurate diagnosis is important.
How is Noonan syndrome diagnosed?
We'll perform genetic testing and initial screening to verify the presence of Noonan syndrome.
How is Noonan syndrome treated?
Because each child's specific symptoms are different, there's no standard treatment for Noonan syndrome. Your child may have multiple medical needs and we'll address them all.
After diagnosis, we'll help coordinate appointments with various specialists to follow a care plan specifically tailored to your child's individual needs.
Whatever kind of genetic syndrome your family is facing, know that at Nemours we do whatever it takes to give your child the very best, most comprehensive and compassionate care possible. We treat every child as we would our own – your child, our promise.

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of March, the journey of a rare illuminated manuscript through centuries of exile and war.
In 1996, Hanna Heath, an Australian rare-book expert, is offered the job of a lifetime: analysis and conservation of the famed Sarajevo Haggadah, which has been rescued from Serb shelling during the Bosnian war. Priceless and beautiful, the book is one of the earliest Jewish volumes ever to be illuminated with images. When Hanna, a caustic loner with a passion for her work, discovers a series of tiny artifacts in its ancient binding—an insect wing fragment, wine stains, salt crystals, a white hair—she begins to unlock the book's mysteries.
The reader is ushered into an exquisitely detailed and atmospheric past, tracing the book's journey from its salvation back to its creation. In Bosnia during World War II, a Muslim risks his life to protect it from the Nazis. In the hedonistic salons of fin-de-siècle Vienna, the book becomes a pawn in the struggle against the city's rising anti-Semitism. In inquisition-era Venice, a Catholic priest saves it from burning. In Barcelona in 1492, the scribe who wrote the text sees his family destroyed by the agonies of enforced exile. And in Seville in 1480, the reason for the Haggadah's extraordinary illuminations is finally disclosed. Hanna's investigation unexpectedly plunges her into the intrigues of fine art forgers and ultra-nationalist fanatics. Her experiences will test her belief in herself and the man she has come to love.
Inspired by a true story, People of the Book is at once a novel of sweeping historical grandeur and intimate emotional intensity, an ambitious work by an acclaimed author.

Later she worked for The Wall Street Journal, where she covered crises in the Middle East, Africa, and the Balkans. She was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in fiction in 2006 for her novel March.

Special Content: Repraps for EducationThis is part of a series of posts about starting and facilitating a project-based 3D printer club at a local elementary school, with the ultimate goal of replicating the program at schools everywhere. We'll be posting as many details as possible, including lesson plans and supporting materials. For more information about the entire project, including a listing of posts related to it, please visit the 3D Printer Club for Schools project page.
Today we tested some basic CAD instruction out on a fifth grader very much like the kind we hope to see in the 3D printer club that we want to start at the local school. We used TinkerCAD. The result was this very nice looking snowman. You can download and print it from thingiverse, or tinker it.

Posted by Kathryn Ostlie on Friday, March 01, 2013 12:24 AM
In Paul's letter to the Galatians, the Apostle is writing to a community for whom he has real affection. You're familiar enough with Paul to realize that this love doesn't preclude the occasional reprimand or extended harangue. Paul is not afraid to list what he calls the "works of the flesh."
It's a pretty gnarly list—actions and attitudes, appetites and deeds that are destructive to community and to people—drunkenness and deceit, anger and anxiety. The chaos you'll find in pretty much any community, Christian or not.
In verse 22 of chapter 5, Paul begins to sing another song—this one about the fruit of the Spirit.
By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, competing against one another, envying one another.
We believe and trust that a seminary education, call and candidacy, CPE and internship, are guided by God's Holy Spirit. It's a human process, of course. But it's also a God thing.
We're bold to claim and confess God's presence in our efforts. We call on the spirit to be with us, and following Paul's advice to this beloved Galatians, we're wary of being conceited or competing or envying each other—because all of these are options when we are anxious.
And of course we're anxious. This is complicated stuff, and it impacts real lives and communities. You who are in the midst of internships, tucked into unique contexts with casts of real characters, you are acutely aware of this.
Anxiety and its angry offspring are bound to make appearances from time to time. Our common bondage to sin and its effects assures us of daily failures in this regard. In Christ we are invited beyond captivity, however. We're invited into a space of being and frames of mind in which conceit and competition and envy—even and especially about our griefs and hurts—give way to something altogether other.
Later in the same letter, Paul writes:
Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. For if those who are nothing think they are something, they deceive themselves. All must test their own work; then that work, rather than their neighbor's work, will become a cause for pride. For all must carry their own loads. (Gal 6:2-5)
We will be responsible for our own work and our loads, our ministries of planning and preparation, our study and service, our thoughtful reflection. We get to take pride in work well done and the outcomes we attempt and achieve, but we also get to bear one another's burdens. That's the grace here; the grace of community to which Paul calls his beloved Galatians, and to which God calls us, too. With the help of the Holy Spirit, marked and made recognizable by those lawless fruits of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, we get to bear one another's burdens.So before firing off an anxious email or responding to another in anger or exasperation because of worry, take a breath. Recall this list of the freedoms that are ours—that we share together in Christ. Recall the graceful gifts of burden sharing that come with the dying and rising with Christ in baptism.In you, Father all-mighty, we have our preservation and our bliss. In you, Christ, we have our restoring and our saving. You are our mother, brother, and savior. In you, our Lord the Holy Spirit, is marvelous and plenteous grace. You are our clothing; for love you wrap us and embrace us. You are our maker, our lover, our keeper. Teach us to believe that by your grace all shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well. Amen. (Julian of Norwich)

Norwich City Breaks

Energy Efficient (E2) double row angular contact ball bearings
Reduce friction and energy consumption
Optimized to reduce frictional losses in the bearing, shielded SKF Energy Efficient double row angular contact ball bearings (DRACBB) can last as long as comparably sized shielded basic design bearings. Depending on operating conditions, the bearing can run 5 to 30 °C cooler compared to an SKF basic design bearing. The lower operating temperature extends the service life of the grease, and can prolong bearing service life.

Lang Lang, Repin, Maisky/Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov 4778099
. . . a recording which reveals a side of pianist Lang Langżs prodigious talent rarely heard before -- his finesse as a collegial interpreter of chamber music . . . Lang Lang could not be in better company to reveal the inexhaustible inventiveness of Tchaikovskyżs Piano Trio No. 50 in A minor or the tender consolations of Rachmaninovżs Trio élégiaque in G-minor . . .
. . . the result is impressive beyond expectation . . . all three play with such confidence, verve and -- wait for it -- deference, that they bounce off and meld with each other perfectly in a performance that brings out all the tension, tenderness and exuberance of these two works.
. . . [Lang Lang is] a seriously gifted musician . . . Thereżs Mischa Maisky, the mercurial and emotional Latvian cellist . . . volcanic. On violin, please welcome Vadim Repin -- another strong personality, and a violinist in the forcefully lyrical Russian style associated with David Oistrakh . . . as they light up Tchaikovskyżs A minor Piano Trio and the teenaged Rachmaninovżs G minor Elegiac Trio, itżs obvious that this joint enterprise is more than a business convenience. Here is passionate communal music-making, most exhilarating in Tchaikovskyżs final section, when the older musicians become gloriously infused with Lang Langżs youth and sparkle. At other points, the kaleidoscope of personalities keeps turning. In the Rachmaninov Maiskyżs soulful, yearning cello carries most of the musicżs emotional weight, with Repin in sweet support. Lang Lang himself stays bright, agile, but modest, as he does in his nonchalant dispatch of the theme for Tchaikovskyżs central variations . . . it's the human spark in the performances overall that delights the ear, and gives new hope for Lang Langżs development. Keep on playing chamber music, my boy!
A celebrity trio that is much more than the sum of its parts . . . what impresses most of all about these performances is their single-mindedness. Nowhere is there even a suggestion of conflicting temperaments with their own agenda. What shines through here is the give and take, the kinship, of outstanding chamber music playing . . . [Tchaikovsky]: All three players display a palpable sense of empathy, as in knowing at any given moment what their leading or supporting role is. The theme and variations of the second movement display a fantastic range of character. I love the way Lang Lang, far from "taking centre stage" at the outset, simply presents the unremarkable theme as if at all costs to preserve its folksy naivety . . . Repin (who displays more than a touch of the gypsy in his soul during the movement) is a perfect complement to Maisky's soulful outpourings and collective virtuosity is certainly felt in the "finale and coda" where the triumvirate really goes into overdrive -- nimble, articulate, uplifting. The big return of the work's opening lament has Lang Lang thrillingly invoking the B flat minor Piano Concerto while Repin and Maisky soar heavenward. Repin is quoted as saying that Lang Lang's playing shines as though full of light -- and that's the overriding spirit here, even in darkness.
This could have been a clash of egos, but it's an emotionally engaging experience . . . The real treat is Tchaikovsky's "A Minor Piano Trio," which bursts with Romantic effusion.
. . . throughout, Vadim Repin's playing is both large-boned and sensitive . . .
. . . [Lang Lang starts] out as support to cellist Mischa Maisky's . . . opening phrase in the Tchaikovsky, underpinning both string players' full and focused exuberance in the long but here unusually convincing variation-finale of the second movement. He also turns in unsurpassably scintillating transcendentalism and mazurka charm in two of the variations . . . the superlative violinist Vadim Repin . . . has any violinist managed a more lustrous fortissimo in Tchaikovsky's fourth variation? . . . The recorded sound, capturing majestic confidence from all three musicians as Tchaikovsky's lament makes its climactic reappearance, is a joy throughout.
. . . these collaborations cast contemporary classical music superstars Vadim Repin and Lang Lang into a new light . . . [Mischa Maisky] brings a magisterial authority to the Russian repertory he champions . . . . The fact that each of the three principals exerts a concertante voice of his own brings the sonic luster of the piece to an often symphonic pitch, abetted by Repinżs and Maiskyżs plaintive tone, intertwined with a strong but subdued expressivity from Lang Lang . . . Sumptuously recorded by engineer Stephen Flock.
This new, starry recording, with Chinese megastar pianist Lang Lang (due back in Dublin next month) making his chamber music début, gets it just right. The big personalities mesh, and the music positively glows. Rachmaninovżs youthful G minor Trio sounds equally fine.
. . . Lang Lang is on his best behavior for two Russian piano trios . . . This is music-making on the highest level.
. . . three superstar virtuosos succeed in merging without submerging their over-life-size personalities . . . The playing is spectacular. Repin's tone, with its vibrant, expressive intensity and incredible purity, is uniquely beautiful; Lang Lang's, whether delicate or powerful, is consistently singing -- even the big chords do not sound harsh. Saving his virtuosity for the solo passages and cadenzas, he never overmatches the strings. Maisky . . . contributes a strong foundation and much dramatic tension . . . the playing is full of variety; even the bombastic Fugue is clear and compelling . . . these players' soloistic brilliance is always at the service of the music. They respond to its romanticism with unrestrained ardor, freedom, and abandon, without succumbing to sentimentality or excess. Most remarkably, they never forget that chamber music is essentially "a civilized discourse between friends". In both works, their ensemble is impeccable; the unanimous phrasing, seamless dynamic buildups, and melodic takeovers give it a conversational quality. Far from trying to upstage one another, they discreetly and skillfully underplay the accompanying passages, projecting mutual respect and support. This is a truly special, thrilling recording.
. . . this is a moving, often exciting, sometimes outright playful performance of a work that is sometimes done as a monochromatic funeral dirge . . . the recorded sound is spectacular, with a depth and breadth that makes one feel like one is hearing the players in an empty, mildly reverberant hall . . . one can settle back and enjoy the tragic intensity of the bookends that open and close the piece. In between, the players bring a wide range of emotion and variety of moods to the 12 substantial variations . . . The performers present Rachmaninoff's early one-movement "Trio Elegiaque" with the same expressiveness and emotional engagement . . . if you agree that the purpose of music is to transmit emotion more directly and purely than any other art form, you'll find plenty to enjoy here.
. . . overall, this is a fine performance by two top-drawer string players who are totally at home in this work. I trust their instincts . . .
Lang Lang turns in unsurpassably scintillating transcendentalism and mazurka charm.
Der träumerische Repin, der explosive Maisky und der bei allem jugendlichem Ungestüm letztlich analytische Lang sorgen für Kontraste, machen vor allem Rachmaninoffs verhangene Komposition spannend.
Das von drei Stars abgeschmeckte Ergebnis mundet nicht schlecht, zumal hier Werke mit einem gewissen Grunderregtheitsgrad vorliegen . . .
Geiger Vadim Repin und Cellist Mischa Maisky leiten so viel Energie nun in neue Bahnen und verwandeln den Tastenzauberer Lang Lang mit Klaviertrios von Rachmaninow und Tschaikowsky in einen Interpreten von zauberhafter Kammermusik.
Diese drei sind ein Dreamteam der besonderen Art. Vor allem, wenn sie russische Klaviertrios spielen! . . . Man hört sofort: Die Chemie stimmt zwischen den so unterschiedlichen Künstlern. Aufregend wie einen Krimi gestalten sie das emotionsgeladene g-Moll-Trio von Rachmaninow. Traumhaft schön ist auch Tschaikowskys Trio in a-Moll. Dessen Variationen gestaltet der Geiger Vadim Repin mit geschmackvollem Vibrato, pathosfrei und ohne sentimentale Drücker. Lang Lang begleitet spielfreudig, mit viel Noblesse und Zurückhaltung. Und Mischa Maisky sorgt mit großem, klangprächtigem Celloton fürs sichere Fundament.
Le virtuose chinois assume sa partie sans outrance et avec une belle sonorité. Il montre avec ses collčgues que tout n'est qu'élégie chez Rachmaninov, cela avec un souci constante de l'équilibre expressif et une vibration rythmique interne . . . Lang, Repin et Maisky mettent en żuvre un lyrisme animé, sans pathos . . .

RE: Alleged N,N & R Involvement in PRISM Program
Dear N,N & R consulting users,
You may be aware of reports alleging that N,N & R consulting and several other Internet companies have joined a secret U.S. government program called PRISM to give the National Security Agency direct access to our servers. We would like to respond to the press reports, and give you the facts.
N,N & R consulting is not and has never been part of any program to give the US or any other government direct access to our servers. We have never received a blanket request or court order from any government agency asking for information or metadata in bulk, like the one Verizon reportedly received. We hadn't even heard of PRISM before yesterday.
When governments ask N,N & R consulting for data, we review each request carefully to make sure they always follow the correct processes and all applicable laws, and then only provide the information if is required by law. We will continue fighting aggressively to keep your information safe and secure. Any suggestion that N,N & R consulting is disclosing information about our users' Internet activity on such a scale is completely false.
We strongly encourage all governments to be much more transparent about all programs aimed at keeping the public safe. It's the only way to protect everyone's civil liberties and create the safe and free society we all want over the long term. We here at N,N & R consulting understand that the U.S. and other governments need to take action to protect their citizens' safety—including sometimes by using surveillance. But the level of secrecy around the current legal procedures undermines the freedoms we all cherish.

The Dodgers reassigned infielder Brian Barden, infielder Hector Luna and outfielder Jeremy Moore to minor league camp, reducing the number of players in major-league camp to 48.
Barden's .478 batting average was the highest of any Dodger with more than three Cactus League at-bats. The 31-year-old from San Diego had nine singles and two doubles among his 11 hits, and was doing it against pitching that was somewhere above Triple-A, but below major-league quality, according to baseball-reference.com's Opponent Quality Index:
Luna was hitting .313/.313/.389 and Moore .333/.407/.542. Neither player has extensive major-league experience. Barden does — 119 games' worth — but he wasn't going to make the team without injuries to several of the infielders on the 40-man roster (Gonzalez, Ellis, Ramirez, Cruz, Gordon, Punto, Uribe, Sellers).
Moore was scratched from the Dodgers' lineup for tonight's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Yasiel Puig started in his place.

YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. – After dropping a pair of one-run games the day before at USC Aiken, the Georgia Southwestern Lady Hurricanes were looking for the resolve needed to bounce back as they faced Young Harris College less than 24 hours after playing in South Carolina. The pair of losses in the sweep by Young Harris (3-2, 4-3) mimicked the pair of one-run losses a day earlier at the hands of the Pacers.
GAME ONE: Georgia Southwestern-2 Young Harris College-3
Game one of Sunday took on an eerily similar feel to Saturday's game one that saw both teams go scoreless into the eleventh inning and saw GSW fail to record a hit until the tenth inning. The Lady Hurricanes got the leadoff runner on in both the first and second innings, but they were unable to bring Mason Moreland or Avery Purser around in both innings.
Picking up offensively where she left off the day before, third baseman Gabby Buck would drive in the game's first run as her single in the third inning scored Mason Moreland. The 1-0 GSW lead would hold up for the next three innings.
Georgia Southwestern starting pitcher Katie Maddox was lights out from the get-go for Coach Ward and company. The senior would have a shutout going as she protected the lean, one-run lead over the course of the first six innings. Going into the seventh inning, Maddox had scattered four hits and struck out three Young Harris batters.
In the top of the seventh inning, Hayley Knight would single and Gabby Buck would follow it up with a walk. Rachel McElroy would come through for the Hurricanes with the RBI single to push the GSW advantage to 2-0. That's when the game took on the painful form of Saturday's heartbreaking, eleven-inning walk-off loss at USC Aiken.
Shortstop Tori Dyer would double to open the bottom of the seventh inning for the Mountain Lions. The next hitter, Sydnee Weaver, would single and advance Dyer to third. Weaver would advance to second on a wild pitch during the next at-bat. With runners in scoring position, Paige Sexton would nearly win the game in one swing as she tripled scoring Weaver and Dyer.
While Sexton was unable to win the game at the plate, she was able to score the game-winning in the next at-bat. After Jessica Martin came out of the GSW bullpen in relief of Maddox, she would throw a wild pitch to her first batter that got away from catcher Kiley Doster that allowed Sexton to score from third and win the game for the Mountain Lions.
GAME TWO: Georgia Southwestern-3 Young Harris College-4
The similarities to the previous day's series at USC Aiken continued in game two of the double header at Young Harris College. The day before, GSW conceded five first-inning runs to the Pacers. The Lady Hurricanes would concede four first-inning runs to the Mountain Lions to put them in the early hole.
Of the four Mountain Lion runs in the first inning, only two would be earned runs for GSW starter Casey Burns. A lead-off walk by Paige Sexton would be followed by two walks, two hits, a passed ball and a muffed throw. By the time the dust settled, Georgia Southwestern faced a four-run deficit.
The Blue & Gold would begin to chip away at the four-run lead run by run. Moreland would steal home on a double-steal as Katie Wooten would get thrown out attempting to steal second, which allowed Moreland to get the first GSW run up on the board. An inning later, Rachel McElroy would bring home Ashley Cavender to cut the one-time four-run Young Harris lead in half by the fifth inning.
True to form in the sixth inning, Coach Ward and company would come one run closer after Janna Anderson hit her first triple of her GSW career and was driven home in the next at-bat by a Brittny Dennison fly ball. Just as was the case in game two of yesterday's series, the Lady 'Canes would go into the seventh inning down just one run after chipping away at a multiple run lead for the entire game.
Moreland would get on-base to lead-off the inning, but was caught stealing in the next at-bat for the first out of the inning. Wooten would walk and Buck would single to put two on with only one out. The comeback bid would unfortunately come up short again as Ashley Cavender and Avery Purser would be retired before getting the game-tying run across.
For the second game in as many days, pitcher Jessica Martin would get the short-end of the stick. The senior threw ten shutout innings in the loss at USC Aiken. She threw five and one-third innings of one-hit, scoreless ball in relief on Sunday and would again not get a win.
The pair of losses on Sunday puts the Lady Hurricanes on an eight-game losing streak while pushing their record to 12-18 (0-6 PBC) for the season. The never-ending road trip will come to an end on Tuesday. The double header at Anderson University will wrap up their road trip, which included five straight double headers away from Americus. First pitch is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Tuesday, March 20th.

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - U.S. troops pulled out of Baghdad on Monday, triggering jubilation among Iraqis hopeful that foreign military occupation is ending six years after the invasion to depose Saddam Hussein.
Iraqi soldiers paraded through the streets in their American-made vehicles draped with Iraqi flags and flowers, chanting, dancing and calling the pullout a "victory."
One drove a motorcycle with party streamers on it; another, a Humvee with a garland of plastic roses on the grill.
U.S. combat troops must pull out of Iraq's urban centers by midnight on Tuesday under a bilateral security pact that also requires all troops to leave the country by 2012.
All had left the capital by Monday afternoon, Major-General in Staff, Abboud Qanbar, head of Iraqi security forces in Baghdad, told Reuters.
Another Iraqi official who would not be named said some units in cities outside Baghdad would leave at the last minute. Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman said 30 bases remained to be handed over. There are still some 130,000 U.S. troops in Iraq.
Addressing military leaders in Baghdad, Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki said: "Our sovereignty has started and ... we should move forward to build a modern state and enjoy (the) security which has been achieved."
Many Iraqis were elated even though they feared militants might use the withdrawal as an opportunity to step up attacks.
"The American forces' withdrawal is something awaited by every Iraqi: male, female, young and old. I consider June 30 to be like a wedding," said Ahmed Hameed, 38, near an ice cream bar in Baghdad's upmarket Karrada district.
"This is proof Iraqis are capable of controlling security inside Iraq," added the recent returnee from exile in Egypt.
The government has declared June 30 a national holiday, "National Sovereignty Day."
A spate of bombings in recent days, including two of the deadliest for more than a year that killed 150 people between them, have raised fears militants will try to step up the pace of attacks.
Yet few Iraqis see that as reason for the Americans to stay.
"It is a big joy to see them leaving," said Abu Hassan, 60, a shop owner. "There might be some more attacks because of struggles between the different parties, but Iraqis are controlling security now. It's up to our forces now."
At a ceremony outside central Baghdad's old defense ministry building, the last Baghdad location to be handed over by U.S. forces, a military band played while soldiers and army college students paraded through a square festooned with Iraqi flags.
"Baghdad is safe, Iraq is safe. We are moving to sovereignty in secure steps," Qanbar said at the ceremony, which unusually was not cordoned off, despite the presence of the commander of U.S. forces in Baghdad, Major-General Daniel Bolger.
U.S. troops will remain at two giant bases near Baghdad airport that are defined as non-urban, in case the Iraqis need to draw on their firepower.
"They'll ask us for help whenever they need something but they've got a lot of capability. This is their country. It only makes sense they should secure their own cities," Bolger said.
Ultimately, Iraq's future depends not on U.S. firepower but on efforts to reconcile fractious ethnic and sectarian groups.
In an interview with Reuters on Monday, the new U.S. ambassador to Iraq Chris Hill said the U.S. did not seek a long term military presence in Iraq, contrary to the fears of some Iraqi political groups, only a long term diplomatic presence.
"But at the end of the day the Iraqis are going to have to work out the political problems themselves," he said.
More than six years of U.S. occupation and the orgy of sectarian violence it unleashed have left most Iraqis feeling at best ambivalent about U.S. forces.
Many complain their lives have improved little since then, with daily struggles caused by power cuts and water shortages.
"They did a good job getting rid of that tyrant, Saddam, and we thank them for that, but it's really time for them to leave," said Talib Rasheed, 70, sitting outside in one of Baghdad's leafier suburbs. "Maybe they could leave us some electricity?"

LONDON (Reuters) - King Richard III is at the centre of a new fight over the location of his final resting place, just weeks after the remains of the last English king to die in battle were found underneath a council car park.
Archaeologists announced one of the most remarkable finds in recent English history last month when they confirmed the discovery of the body of Richard, who was slain at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, during excavations in Leicester.
The discovery generated massive interest internationally as the monarch was famously cast by William Shakespeare as a deformed tyrant who murdered his two nephews, known as the princes, in the Tower of London.
He has long been one of the most controversial characters in English history, with passionate supporters claiming he was wrongly maligned after his death and was in fact an enlightened ruler. Now, more than 500 years after his death, he is still generating division.
The University of Leicester, which led the project to find and exhume Richard, was given permission to reinter the king's remains at the cathedral in Leicester, which is close to Bosworth in central England.
But descendants of the monarch, who was the last king of the Plantagenet dynasty, are seeking a legal challenge to have his body laid to rest instead in York, the northern English city with which he had close links during his life.
"We have now written officially to the Ministry of Justice and University of Leicester, notifying them that we plan to issue these claims," said Matthew Howarth, the lawyer representing the Plantagenet Alliance which is spearheaded by 15 of Richard's descendants.
"We will follow up by issuing the judicial review and other proceedings as soon as possible, but certainly within the next few weeks."
They will argue that the Ministry of Justice failed to consult them over the exhumation and the licence allowing the university to re-bury the king, and this failure breached the European Convention on Human Rights.
"We have every hope that Matthew and his colleagues will succeed in these cases and help us significantly in our quest to have Richard's remains buried at the most appropriate site, York Minster," said Stephen Nicolay, a 16th great-nephew of the monarch.

Ask John
England's youngest centres and All Black hat-tricks
John Griffiths
June 20, 2012

Welcome to the latest edition of Ask John where renowned rugby historian John Griffiths will answer any rugby-related query you have!
So, if there's something you've always wanted to know about the game we love but didn't know who to ask, or you think you can stump our expert - then get involved by sending us a question.
In this edition, John looks at England's youngest centre pairing, New Zealand's hat-trick heroes, Munster's unique Heineken Cup record and the career of John Marshall.
Who were the youngest England centres to start a cap match before Jonathan Joseph and Manu Tuilagi? MC, England
Joseph was 21 years, 26 days old and Tuilagi 21 years, 29 days old when they took the field against South Africa at Ellis Park last Saturday. Their average age was just over 21.
There have, of course, been younger centres. Mathew Tait was capped the day before his 19th birthday against Wales in 2005, Jonny Wilkinson played a season in the centre in 1999 when he was only 19, and Paul Dodge was another capped as a teenager.
You have to go back to 1934 to find a younger average age for an England centre-pairing, though. Peter Cranmer was 19 years, 132 days old and his partner Ron Gerrard 21 years, 360 days when they first played together in a 9-0 win against Wales at Cardiff that year. They stayed together for the season, with England winning the Triple Crown (France were excommunicated from the Championship at the time). Their average age throughout the Triple Crown campaign was under 21.
Both were first-class cricketers. Cranmer captained Warwickshire and was a regular contributor to the rugby columns of the Sunday Times in the 1950s and 1960s. Gerrard played for Somerset and was a Bath rugby stalwart. He was killed in action during World War Two. His wife, Molly, remained a staunch Bath regular for years after his death and later served as club President.
David Duckham and John Spencer averaged around the 22 years mark when they first played together for England (against Ireland in Dublin in 1969). Other similarly young pairings of recent times were Paul Dodge/Richard Cardus and Peter Warfield/Peter Preece.
The previous youngest post-war pairing was Lew Cannell and Clive van Ryneveld, the South African Test cricket captain who was at Oxford when he played for England. When they first played against Wales at Cardiff in 1949 they averaged 21 years 261 days.
Can you provide the list of All Blacks who preceded Julian Savea scoring three tries on their full Test debut? Paul Wilson, New Zealand
Savea became the seventh New Zealander to achieve a hat-trick of tries on debut. The list in date order is as follows:
F E Mitchinson v Australia, Sydney, 1907
* Sivivatu's debut haul was four tries.
Have any clubs/provinces come back to win the Heineken Cup after losing their opening match of the pool stages? This year's winners, Leinster, drew their opening pool game away to Montpellier in November. Barry, Ireland
The only team do this contrasting "double" is Munster - twice. They lost 27-13 away to Sale on the opening weekend of the 2005-06 campaign before a winning run took them through to a 23-19 victory over Biarritz in the Millennium Stadium final.
Two years later they did exactly the same thing. This time they lost their opener 24-23 away to reigning champions Wasps before crowning their season with a 16-13 final win against Toulouse back in Cardiff.
Two sides have won the Heineken Cup after drawing their first pool game. In 1998-99 (when the English clubs withdrew from the tournament) Ulster drew 38-38 home to Edinburgh Reivers but went on to beat Colomiers 21-6 in the final at Lansdowne Road.
As you mention, this year's champions, Leinster, drew with Montpellier 16-16 at the Stade de la Mosson on the first weekend of the season before running away 42-14 winners against Ulster in the final at Twickenham last month.
What part of the playing kit are "ledges"? D Kelly, England
The lineout jumpers - locks, flankers and No.8s - are usually heavily strapped around the thighs. Built into the wrappings are ridges. Players call these ledges. They give the props something to grip when players are lifted to catch the ball.
Do you have any information on the late John Marshall's rugby career? He was a former Rugby School housemaster? OR, England
John Campbell Marshall, who died on April 26 this year aged 83, won five caps for Scotland in the 1953-4 season. He was their fullback throughout the Five Nations campaign and also played in the narrow 3-0 defeat by New Zealand at Murrayfield.
He was educated at Rugby School and Oxford University, where he won a cricket Blue but missed out on rugby honours. He nevertheless caught the eye of the Scottish selectors and made his Scottish trial debut at Melrose playing for The Rest against Scotland in December of 1952.
The Rest beat the senior side 8-6 and Marshall was described as one of the "most notable of the successes." He impressed with his positional play and showed a fine turn of speed. He possessed a cricketer's hands and was a powerful kicker.
In March 1953 he was called into the Scottish side as a new cap to play at Twickenham but had to withdraw, his Test debut finally coming the following season against France in January 1954 by which time he was playing regularly for London Scottish. After graduating in 1953 he became a schoolmaster and taught at the Dragon School, Oxford, before returning to Rugby in 1959, later becoming a house-master there.

Jon Stewart debuted a new segment on "The Daily Show" Wednesday, calling out and celebrating a few particularly rich comments made by 2012 hopefuls.
One shining example of political chutzpah, he said, came when Libya-challenged former candidate Herman Cain told Barbara Walters he'd like to be appointed Secretary of Defense — and when Walters reacted with an incredulous "What?!"
"That was so ballsy, it made Barbara Walters do a reporter's equivalent of a spit-take!" Stewart remarked. "It blew her mind."
Stewart also gave a nod to Mitt Romney, who's lagging in GOP polls because he's perceived as insufficiently conservative yet criticized front-runner Newt Gingrich for not being conservative enough.
But the winner of the weekly award for the most brazen behavior, said Stewart? President Barack Obama, who asked Iran to return the U.S. surveillance drone that crashed inside Iran.
"You were spying on them via a drone! You're acting like we lent them Season One of 'The Wire,'" Stewart joked.
Watch the segment below.
