Welcome to the monthly meeting of the io9 Book Club. In August, we read Mur Lafferty's The Shambling Guide to New York City. Jump into comments to get started talking about it!
For those unfamiliar with the io9 book club, here's how it works: You read the book. We create a special book club post on io9 when the meeting is in session. That would be the post you're reading. Then everybody talks about the book in comments for a few days, starting right now.
Lafferty will stop by next week to talk to everybody about the book (probably Tuesday)! So, what did you think of The Shambling Guide to New York City?
Want to get started on our next book?
In August, we'll be reading Max Barry's Lexicon. We'll meet on Sept. 24 to talk about it.

Funnyman Patton Oswalt, who lost wife Michelle McNamara 15 months ago, surprised fans when he announced his engagement to "Journey of Natty Gann" actress Meredith Salenger on Thursday after a few months of dating. But not everyone was thrilled for the happy couple.
Some online trolls took issue with Oswalt's moving on so soon after the death of his wife, writing a flurry of negative comments on social media -- and the "Young Adult" star is having none of it.
The outspoken actor, who is known for his candid social media posts, took to different platforms to call out the people he calls "bitter grub worms." In a Facebook message the widower wrote some pointed words to his trolls and shared a fiery blog titled "A Widow's Rage Defense Against Patton Oswalt's Engagement" from a widow, Erica Roman, who lost her husband three days before Michelle's death.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
"This is so amazing. And SO well-written. I expected some bitter grub worms to weigh in (anonymously, always always always) with their much-needed opinions when I announced my engagement last week," Oswalt wrote. "I decided to ignore them. But yeah, I felt this rage. And Erica articulated it better than I could have ever hoped. So there you go. Thank you, Erica."
The comic also took to Twitter to take aim at the "grub worms" for the venom and linked to the blog, which defends the 48-year-old's decision to move on and find love once again.
In the tweet, Oswalt wrote, "Thank you for this, Erica. I'd chosen to ignore the grub worms but your writing is just SO good here. Thank you, seriously..."
In the impassioned post, Roman, who found out she was pregnant after the death of her husband, wrote of the engagement naysayers, "You aren't entitled to an opinion. You don't get to comment on the choices of a widower while you sit happily next to your own living spouse. You didn't have to stand and watch your mundane morning turn into your absolute worst nightmare. You didn't have to face the agony of despair and the only person who could possibly bring you comfort had been ripped from your life forever."
She continued, "You didn't have to stand in the ashes of what was once your life, when the sun itself darkened and the very air you breathed felt toxic in your lungs. Go back to scrolling Facebook and keep your ignorance to yourself."
Salenger also reposted the blog and wrote a lengthy and touching response to engagement reactions. "Everyone has been so lovely to us...all of Patton's family...ALL of Michelle's siblings and family and friends...a few trolls have strong opinions," she wrote.
"But I think for Patton having met and found love after over a year of intense therapy and openly grieving and dealing with his pain...I am grateful to be the one who helps him climb out of the depths of grief and find some joy again."
Salenger also addresses her relationship with Oswalt and McNamara's daughter Alice, "Most of all...Alice is happy and feels loved. I have waited 47 years to find true love. Creating our family unit while honoring the brilliant gift Michelle has given me will be my life's goal and happiness."

What California Residents Need to Know About Unemployment Benefits
Have you recently lost your job? If so, you may qualify for unemployment benefits: money paid by the state to those who are temporarily out of work.
This site provides clear, accurate information on collecting unemployment benefits in California, including:
- whether you are eligible for benefits
- how to apply for benefits
- how much you'll get (and how long your benefits will last)
- what you'll have to do to keep collecting benefits, and
- what to do if your application is denied.
Here are three things to keep in mind as you get started:
1. You may be eligible for benefits even if you quit or were fired for cause.
Some people mistakenly believe that unemployment is available only to employees who are laid off. However, you don't have to lose your job in a layoff to qualify for benefits. The key question is whether you are out of work without fault on your part. So, if you were forced to quit your job in lieu of being fired, or you were fired because you don't have the necessary skills for your job, you could still be eligible for benefits.

This is a family website, so I must begin this post by telling you that we at NBC do not condone illegal gambling, nor do we encourage you to place massive wagers on random events and use things like your wife, home, car, and grandmother's estate as collateral. Those would all be bad things.
Now, that said, it's crazy fun to bet on the Oscars, isn't it? Oh, the rush you feel when that envelope opens and it turns out that "Crash" came through for you at 7/1 odds. WE'RE HAVING STEAK TONIGHT, CHILDREN. What a moment. Can't be duplicated anywhere. Don't let those anti-gambling fascists tell you different!
Roger Ebert has declared this year's Oscars one of the easiest to predict in memory. He considers most of the major categories locked up. But let's take a stroll around the official gambling odds and make sure of that. Are there any good gambling values for your money out there? I consulted the Easy Odds site, because I always prefer the classy stylings of UK bookmakers.
BEST PICTURE The most uncertain of all categories also happens to be the biggest. Right now, "The Hurt Locker" is the bookies' favorite to win it all at 4/5 odds. "Avatar" is a close second with odds hovering right around even money. But say you like to live dangerously. Well, the Oscars' new voting system is a little kooky. If you think that could cause massive imbalances in the process, perhaps "Inglourious Basterds" at 15/1 is a bit more your speed.
Me, I'd hedge my bets and go with "Avatar." It's a bigger payoff than "Hurt Locker," and I don't think it's that far-fetched for the highest grossing movie in history, a movie that will go a long way toward keeping those in Hollywood rolling in money, to win it all. Call me kooky.
BEST ACTOR Jeff Bridges stands at 1/6 odds. No one else has a shot, and the payoff for betting on Bridges is pretty low. Or is it? If you bet $1,000, you get $160 in return on what appears to be a sure thing. Hmmm. Suddenly quite tempting. HOW CAN IT LOSE?
BEST DIRECTOR Kathryn Bigelow pays off 1/5 odds for winning this category. Her ex-hubby, James Cameron, averages 3/1 odds. Not bad odds for a guy who, again, directed the highest grossing movie ever.
BEST ACTRESS You can get 2/1 odds on Meryl Streep in this category, better than the 2/3 odds currently going for Sandra Bullock. Remember: Bullock is the favorite, but Streep's performance was insanely good. Could be worth betting on Oscar voters to make that same realization.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR Christoph Waltz gets a shocking 1/20 odds to win this. That means if you bet $10 on Waltz, you get a whopping fifty cents for your trouble if he prevails. Avoid this category entirely.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS Those who tell you this category has a history of recent surprises fail to remember that the category has been as predictable as any other in recent years. Favorites like Renee Zellweger and Penelope Cruz have turned back any upset bids, so Mo'Nique (1/16 odds) will be tough to beat. Maybe a longshot like Vera Farmiga (20/1) will pay off, but I'd keep that bet very, very small.

New York, July 8, 2011--The Committee to Protect Journalists is disturbed by the Iranian government's persistent mistreatment of detained journalists as well as news reports that authorities have arrested two additional journalists in recent days.
"We are profoundly disturbed by media reports and testimonies indicating that Iran's prison and judicial authorities continue to engage in abusive and retaliatory tactics against detained journalists," said CPJ Middle East and North Africa Program Coordinator Mohamed Abdel Dayem. "Making matters worse, the authorities continue to detain new journalists at an alarmingly steady pace."
Hossein Ronaghi Maleki, the 26-year-old blogger who is currently serving the second year of a politicized 15-year prison sentence, developed kidney disease while in prison and has been suffering from related complications at least since April 2010, according to news reports. Ronaghi Maleki's father told the U.S.-funded Radio Farda that his son is under sustained physical and psychological pressure "to confess" on television to crimes he has not committed. Ronaghi Maleki's father also said that his son's 376 days in solitary confinement led to his kidney complications.
Ronaghi Maleki, who was arrested in December 2009, discussed politics in a series of critical blogs that were blocked by the government. He was also a founder of an anticensorship group known as the Iran Proxy, which was launched in 2003. After 10 months in "temporary detention," he was sentenced to 15 years in prison on charges of "membership in the Internet group 'Iran Proxy', and propagating against the regime," "insulting the Supreme Leader," and "insulting the President." An appeals court upheld his sentence.
Ronaghi Maleki was transferred to hospital in March and then again in May, where he underwent a kidney transplant. He was back in prison within 14 days, according to reformist news websites. Ahmad Maleki, the blogger's father, told an opposition website that he petitioned authorities for medical furlough, but interrogators would not approve the leave.
In an interview with the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, Mahdieh Mohammadi, wife of imprisoned journalist Ahmad Zaid-Abadi, expressed concern about her husband's rapid weight loss since her last visit. "He said, 'I have done all kinds of tests and there is no problem.' But really, the tests from the prison infirmary, with its minimal facilities, cannot suffice," she told the campaign. "I mean it is unprecedented that he suddenly lost so much weight."
Zaid-Abadi was arrested on 14 June, 2009. In November 2009, he was sentenced to six years in prison, five years' exile to Gonabad in Khorasan Province, and a "lifetime deprivation of any political activity" including "interviews, speech, and analysis of events, whether in written or oral form," CPJ research shows. An appeals court upheld the sentence on January 2, 2010, according to Advar News. Zaid-Abadi won the UNESCO/Guillermo Cano World Press Freedom Prize 2011.
Two journalists have also been detained in recent weeks in separate incidents.
Photojournalist Maryam Majd was arrested on June 17, one night before she was scheduled to travel to Germany to cover the Women's World Cup. Her hosts in Germany reported her disappearance when she did not arrive on the flight they were expecting, Deutsche Welle reported. Iranian judicial authorities refuse to explain why the journalist was detained. Majd is reportedly being held in solitary confinement at Evin Prison.
According to the Committee of Human Rights Reporters's website, documentary filmmaker and women's rights activist Mahnaz Mohamamdi was arrested on June 26 after security forces stormed her home. Mohammadi's charges remain unknown. In 2009, Mohammadi was arrested in the aftermath of the disputed presidential election when she and other documentary filmmakers were laying flowers on the graves of those killed during street protests. She was also arrested in 2007 when she and other women's rights activists gathered in front of the Revolutionary Court to protest security pressure and summonses for activists. Another CHRR article says that Mohammadi's family has no information about her and she has not been permitted to contact them. The family is concerned for Mohammadi's health, and it is unclear whether she has access to necessary medication.
As of CPJ's last annual census, on December1, 2010, Iran was the world's leading jailer of journalists, tied with China, with 34 in prison. Iran continues to be among the world's worst jailers of journalists.

The sunny weather of recent days will be replaced with some pretty nasty conditions as we look ahead to what promises to be a wet and windy weekend.
Storm Stella, which hit the north-east of America earlier in the week is on its way north to Iceland, and while it will send some colder, wetter and windier conditions across Yorkshire, we do look to have missed out on the worst of it. Here is our weekend weather package from Sky News, BBC and the Met Office.

Nature Check 2013 is a damning report by wildlife NGOs on a Coalition that claimed to be the Greenest Government Ever. There is abundant evidence that nature is in crisis, but the report shows there has been little new action to address the most crucial issues.
It is very disappointing that the Government is taking so little action to halt the decline of our wildlife, especially when over 90% of British people think we should be improving the natural environment. A healthy environment is essential to underpin all life on earth, yet politicians seem to be sleep-walking to disaster.
Butterfly Conservation is especially concerned that wildlife is still declining at an alarming rate. The recent State of Nature report showed that butterflies and moths are declining faster than many other groups of wildlife, with over two-thirds of species declining and over 200 species threatened. However, there seems to be no concerted action to stem these losses, despite the Government signing the Convention on Biological Diversity and the targets to halt the loss of species.
The Nature Check report says that the Government's Biodiversity 2020 Strategy is neglected, underfunded and behind schedule. The Strategy was very weak on conserving species to begin with but it seems there has been little progress in its implementation. The amount we spend on biodiversity in England is already miniscule, amounting to just one thirtieth of one percent of GDP (Gross Domestic Product), but even this is declining.
We are also concerned that the government institutions charged with conserving nature are being undermined. Natural England has been greatly weakened by huge budget cuts (nearly 50% in real terms over the last 5 years) and the long term future of the Forestry Commission remains in doubt. The national Forest Estate holds many important populations of butterflies and moths, yet after lengthy rounds of consultation we seem no further in valuing and protecting these important woodlands.
Butterfly Conservation welcomed the establishment and funding of 12 Nature Improvement Areas in 2012. These are delivering real benefits for both biodiversity and local people, and show the way forward. Our work within the Morecambe Bay Limestones and Woods NIA is restoring large areas of woodland and grassland habitats for threatened species like the High Brown Fritillary. Our recent landscape-scale conservation report also shows that this approach can reverse the decline of Priority species, but far more funding is needed to roll the approach out in other key landscapes.
On the policy front, the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy has been very disappointing from a wildlife view. Proposals to support High Nature Value Farmland were rejected and more support for agri-environment schemes was rejected. There is still some flexibility by Member states so we are urging Defra to take up the full 15% modulation allowed and put the funds into Higher Level Stewardship (HLS) which is helping improve farmland for wildlife. Our studies show that HLS is bringing big benefits to threatened species like the Marsh Fritillary but we need more farmland entered into the scheme in key butterfly areas.

That Echo you hear is the sound of Amazon's servers calling your name
Amazon's Echo device is the future. When computation and connectivity is so cheap and small and abundant it can be poured into anything. When convenience is aggressively enabled by networks and algorithms. When we routinely socialize with machines and artificial intelligences… It's an odd menagerie to let into the human party. An always-on omnipresence with frames of privacy and intimacy violated by this commercial surveillance. Or worse: by state agents peering through hidden backdoors.
Is this a generational thing? Are digital natives and millennials more comfortable allowing machine intelligence into their private lives? Does a person who grew up with a distributed virtuality of friends and followers naturally expect those networks to be present throughout their lives? Are kids these days more comfortable with the bargain that trades privacy for convenience, data for insight?
When the typical signifiers of digital interaction – software, opt-in interfaces, the need to turn the thing "on" – recede and become invisible, the relationship with computation and connectivity becomes part of the fabric of reality – which is to say, it becomes forgotten.
Are we who cry foul at the intrusion of such tools destined to be outmoded by those more at ease with a distributed sense of selfhood, a comfort and reliance upon an outboarded cognitive toolset, an acceptance of transparency and visibility?
If there is to be a global mind, it's inherently at odds with individuality, inasmuch as it anchors us more directly into the collective by unbundling our functions as network operations. How much of "you" do you owe to Google? How much of your experience is validated by your Facebook Friends or Instagram Likes? This isn't entirely new – we've been calculating with external tools and sharing stories for ages. But there's a creeping sense that comes with scale when our behaviors start to mimic the algorithms rather than the algorithms serving us.
We train Google's AI with our searching. We shorten communications for Twitter. We capture the world and feed it to Facebook's analytics. We yield to the algorithmic narrowing of recommended ideology because if you like X, you will also probably like x+1. We can also help you avoid y.
Amazon's Echo takes a place in our home, like the bands on our wrists, a trojan horse for servers to learn more, for our convenience and amazement and a desire to curate the future by inviting it in, good hosts to the unfolding calculus of computation.
The Echo you hear is the reflection of our lives in data, across networks, with Friends and Followers, into the hands of marketers and product managers, the chartings of researchers and anthropologists, the power struggles of states and militias. But maybe it's just the growing din of the future collapsing into the present, the world we inhabit and the challenges to some of us of becoming more connected than we perhaps want, more cognitively unbundled and dependent, somehow more empowered and less individual, tuned and entrained by things less human and more capable as the very concrete of our lives wakes and begins to gaze at us from across the wires.

City Officials Question Both Berkeley Marina Ferry Sites
The regional agency that governs Bay Area ferries gave too little consideration to the impacts of a ferry terminal at Berkeley Marina, city officials say.
Building at either of two proposed marina sites could have serious negative impacts on businesses, boat owners and visitors to Cesar Chavez Park, they contend.
City Manager Phil Kamlarz summarized their concerns in a letter to the Water Emergency Transport Authority (WETA), which has commissioned an environmental impact report (EIR) on the project.
The draft EIR released in October failed to adequately consider parking and traffic impacts of the ferry terminal, Kamlarz said.
The water transit agency said the project is needed because projected population growth will add further congestion even to the remodeled Bay Bridge and to BART transit.
Ferry service would also provide "a viable alternative for transporting people around the region" in the event of disasters impacting road and rail traffic, according to the draft EIR.
WETA picked four possible sites for an East Bay terminal, two at the Marina and one each on either side of Golden Gate Fields.
City officials addressed only the two marina sites, given "the very small likelihood that either the Gilman or Buchanan (street) locations will proceed further in the process" because of significant environmental impacts at both of those locations.
Kamlarz said the city's Waterfront Commission, which oversees the marina, felt the draft EIR gave "insufficient emphasis to understanding and mitigating the negative impact a Ferry Terminal will have on parking and traffic on the Berkeley Marina and Cesar Chavez Park."
The first site, dubbed Option A, would create a new dock south of the Doubletree Hotel just west of Marina Boulevard and would require 304 parking spaces on either side of the roadway. The hotel currently leases 104 of the existing spaces earmarked for ferry parking.
Option A parking would also take the 104 spaces west of the boulevard, which are currently allotted to 156 boat berths and 13 houseboats at the F, G, H and I docks, while the 200 additional spaces east of the roadway are currently gravel parking areas used by park visitors.
Further complicating the Option A plan is the hotel's lease on the parking, which runs through 2057.
A parking lease also exists for the Option B site, which calls for a new dock to extend into the bay west of Seawall Drive and south of the Berkeley Fishing Pier. Plans call for the use of all spaces currently leased—through 2017—to Hs Lordships.
Kamlarz said the waterfront commission considers the site "vital for the future economic development within the marina and is unwilling to give up any parking which would limit future development on Hs Lordships' site."
The city manager also cited concerns raised by planning and transportation commissioners.
"They want our support, but they're going at it in a rather slapdash manner," said Planning Commission Chair James Samuels during the panel's Dec. 10 meeting.
Another complication is the gap between dreams and reality. While WETA's plans call for the ability to serve two ferries simultaneously, the regional group has authorized only one ferry for each of two routes, one between San Francisco and Berkeley and the other between San Francisco and Albany.
Other concerns involve a lack of details on a shuttle service WETA proposes, to carry riders from Berkeley to the terminal, a possible need for public toilets to serve riders waiting for ferries to arrive and depart, impacts on parking and traffic in the marina, an inadequate description of Bay Trail uses and the impacts of construction on marina users.
Kamlarz said the city also disagreed with the draft EIR's conclusion that the loss of parking at the Doubletree site wouldn't have negative impacts on the hotel, given that the report failed to include a parking utilization study addressing the issue.
"The larger issue is whether a commuter terminal with 400 spaces is an appropriate use" in a recreational area, Kamlarz wrote. "The hundreds and perhaps thousands of people accessing the ferry for this new function on a daily basis will change the character of this area."
The public comment period on the proposal closed Dec. 31, and the WETA board will prepare a final EIR. The organization's board next meets Feb. 19. A final selection of a site is scheduled to be made by July 1.
The board is composed of state appointees, with three members named by the governor and one each by the Senate and Assembly rules committees.

Whatever else may be wrong in a political way -- like the inadequacy of the Great Depression techniques applied to a scene that has long outgrown them; like old-fashioned grafter's glee among the city fathers over the vast amounts of poverty-war bread that Uncle is now making available to them -- lying much closer to the heart of L.A.'s racial sickness is the co-existence of two very different cultures: one white and one black.
While the white culture is concerned with various forms of systematized folly -- the economy of the area in fact depending on it -- the black culture is stuck pretty much with basic realities like disease, like failure, violence and death, which the whites have mostly chosen -- and can afford -- to ignore. The two cultures do not understand each other, though white values are displayed without let-up on black people's TV screens, and though the panoramic sense of black impoverishment is hard to miss from atop the Harbor Freeway, which so many whites must drive at least twice every working day. Somehow it occurs to very few of them to leave at the Imperial Highway exit for a change, go east instead of west only a few blocks, and take a look at Watts. A quick look. The simplest kind of beginning. But Watts is country which lies, psychologically, uncounted miles further than most whites seem at present willing to travel.
As for violence, in a pocket of reality such as Watts, violence is never far from you: because you are a man, because you have been put down, because for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Somehow, sometime. Yet to these innocent, optimistic child-bureaucrats, violence is an evil and an illness, possibly because it threatens property and status they cannot help cherishing.
They remember last August's riot as an outburst, a seizure. Yet what, from the realistic viewpoint of Watts, was so abnormal? "Man's got his foot on your neck," said one guy who was there, "sooner or later you going to stop asking him to take it off." The violence it took to get that foot to ease up even the little it did was no surprise. Many had predicted it. Once it got going, its basic objective -- to beat the Black and White police -- seemed a reasonable one, and was gained the minute The Man had to send troops in. Everybody seems to have known it. There is hardly a person in Watts now who finds it painful to talk about, or who regrets that it happened -- unless he lost somebody.
But in the white culture outside, in that creepy world full of pre-cardiac Mustang drivers who scream insults at one another only when the windows are up; of large corporations where Niceguymanship is the standing order regardless of whose executive back one may be endeavoring to stab; of an enormous priest caste of shrinks who counsel moderation and compromise as the answer to all forms of hassle; among so much well-behaved unreality, it is next to impossible to understand how Watts may truly feel about violence. In terms of strict reality, violence may be a means to getting money, for example, no more dishonest than collecting exorbitant carrying charges from a customer on relief, as white merchants here still do. Far from a sickness, violence may be an attempt to communicate, or to be who you really are.
Thomas Pynchon: from A Journey into the Mind of Watts, in New York Times Magazine, 12 June 1966

micro:bit in the Amazon Rainforest (Brazil)
The Manaus-Brazil Hackathon "Education 4.0 – Transforming the learning experience through the technology" will take place on January 15th, 16th and 17th.
The participants will be exploring new ways of thinking in the area of Internet of Things (IOT) applications, sometimes called the 'fourth industrial revolution'.
This event, promoted by Positivo Tecnologia and CERTI Institute, aims to think about the learning process and create proposals in order to meet this new reality. Positivo Tecnologia and CERTI Institute are keen to look at how the Education sector is preparing for the new challenges presented by the development in IOT.
During the 3-day event micro:bits will be used to develop innovation and encourage collaboration among the academic community, education professionals and researchers.
The Foundation's very own Howard Baker has been invited as one of the specialists taking part in a series of high profile lectures to be delivered at the event.

We have really tried to follow this in our new home and let me tell you – it has made SUCH a difference. Getting rid of pointless clutter (aka things that are not functional or joy-producing) is not just visually powerful, but very emotionally powerful as well.
To ponder: Do you have a lot of items around your home that you don't particularly like or need, but hold onto because you would feel "bad" throwing them out?

Vlad officially retires with the Angels
ANAHEIM -- Can Vladimir Guerrero be the first player to enter the Hall of Fame with an Angels hat?
It's very possible.
The Angels signed Guerrero to a one-day contract on the field Monday, seconds before he would throw out the ceremonial first pitch to kick off Opening Day, so that he could officially retire with the organization. Guerrero, 39, spent six of his 16 years with the Angels, joining Don Baylor, who suffered a fractured right femur while catching the first pitch, as the only MVPs in team history.
But he spent his first eight with the Montreal Expos.
"I feel like this is the team I can go in with, since I played six years here," Guerrero, speaking in Spanish, said of the Angels. "The Montreal Expos signed me, but they aren't in the big leagues anymore."
That doesn't necessarily mean he can't go into Cooperstown with the Expos, though.
Montreal hasn't had its Major League franchise since the end of the 2004 season, but outfielder Andre Dawson (2010) and manager Dick Williams (2008) have since entered with the organization. Both, however, has an extensive tenure with the Expos. And for Guerrero, it may be close enough that the Baseball Hall of Fame sides with the organization that's still around.
Guerrero signed a five-year, $70 million contract with the Angels in January 2004, won the American League MVP in his first year and finished his tenure in Anaheim batting .319/.381/.546 while averaging 29 homers and 103 RBIs per season. Before that, though, he was signed by the Expos out of the Dominican Republic, spent his first eight years in Montreal and put up monstrous numbers in his last six, batting .326/.395/.600 while averaging 37 homers and 110 RBIs.
First, Guerrero -- .318/.379/.553 career slash line, 449 homers, 181 stolen bases and one of the best outfield arms in history -- actually has to get in the Hall of Fame.
"I'm not thinking about that right now," said Guerrero, who's eligible to enter with the 2017 class. "I just hope that God gives me good health, and I'll just wait and see what happens."

There are so many elements about The Nutcracker that simply take peoples breaths away. All sit marveled by the dancing, some swoon over the set and then there are many who, like myself, gawk at the elegant and magnificent display of costumes. With a new one making its way on stage every couple of minutes throughout the show, each with such beautiful detail, I began to wonder… how do you undertake costuming a production like The Nutcracker?
Since beginning my internship here at Ballet Austin in August, I had yet to visit the wardrobe shop. And wanting to inundate myself with all things costumes, I decided to go straight to the sources: Ballet Austin's Wardrobe Master Alexey Korygin and his assistant Emily Cavasar. As I made my way to the costume world, I half expected to stumble upon a room covered in fabric and thread, hear sewing machines flying and see two people stitching on sequins at a mile a minute. What I discovered was an unbelievably neat work space complete with two of the nicest and most welcoming individuals!
What I learned from this talented two-some was quite interesting. With a total of 176 company-owned costumes, the biggest challenge deals with maintenance and cleaning. Now, the end-of-production dry cleaning is relatively simple: send all 176 costumes off, they return a week later and are tucked safely away until the following season. The difficulty is keeping the intricate costumes clean between performances, especially the stark-white Snow Queen and King outfits, and removing stage make-up takes a lot more than a Tide To-Go Pen.
Of course I had to ask, how many brand new costumes make their debut each season? The answer: one, maybe two… seriously? Alexey explained that new ones are made only when the present ones wear completely out, and with the current set about to celebrate its 15th Nutcracker with Ballet Austin, these costumes are obviously build to last and have an ability to stay beautiful!
Alexey and Emily went on to describe where the real work lies – refurbishing, rebuilding, and fixing all 176 costumes. It's a meticulous process that begins over the summer; the team spends five to six weeks figuring out how much maintenance each costume will require and the actual fixing begins then as well. About a month and a half before the December opening night, alterations and individual fittings commence and those keep the staff plenty busy!
After gaining this unique insight into the world of Nutcracker costumes, I can hardly wait to watch as they grace the stage with their presence and stun audiences with their beauty.

Satyajit Ray, known for having the "director's gaze", harboured a "deep respect" for women and portrayed them as having more moral strength than men in various roles other than the stereotyped idea of a "woman belonging to the kitchen", say the filmmaker's leading ladies.
Actresses Sharmila Tagore, Aparna Sen and Madhabi Mukherjee still turn euphoric while recounting their experiences of working with the Oscar-winning director, even more than 20 years after his death.
And this came out vividly during a late evening session called Nayikar Bhumikay - Satyajiter Nari Charitra (Playing the Actress - Satyajit's Women Characters), at the Kolkata Literary Meet Saturday.
"He had a deep respect for women. He had told me once that probably because women were not equal to men in terms of physical prowess, they were much powerful when it came to moral strength and his female characters showed that," said Aparna, who debuted as an actress in Mr Ray's 1961 film Teen Kanya (Three Daughters) based on three short stories by Rabindranath Tagore. A well-knonw director now, Aparna, 67, played Mrinmoyee in the story Samapti.
Veteran actress Sharmila Tagore, who started her celluloid sojourn with Mr Ray's creation Apur Sansar - the final film in the Apu Trilogy - in 1959 at the age of thirteen, agreed.
"He had the director's gaze that's what made him famous. He did a variety of films spanning different eras and showed what women could do during that period, in the given situation and according to the time. He was true to the time," said Sharmila.
After Apur Sansar, Mr Ray cast Sharmila as Dayamoyee in Devi, before she went on to become a very successful actress in Hindi films. She returned to work in Ray's films - Nayak, Aranyer Din Ratri and Seemabaddha.
"He introduced me to cinema. If it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't have become a film actor because I did not want to become one.
"I was a school girl. He found me in front of the school and he changed my life. He introduced me to this wonderful world and I am sitting and talking with you," said a grateful Sharmila, 68.
According to veteran Bengali actress Madhabi Mukherjee, best known for the title role in Satyajit Ray's masterpiece Charulata, Ray's films prescribed for women what should be done in response to the problems they faced in society.
"There was an idea that women belonged to the kitchen, but Mr Ray brought them out from there. His films gave an idea about what should be done about the problems they faced in society," said Madhabi.
According to Madhabi, Mr Ray (or Manik da as he was popularly called) brought the audiences back to the era of silent films as his craft stressed on watching the story unfold rather than being laced with dialogues.
"He preferred that people watched and observed the movie rather than paying attention to dialogues. His narratives were more visual," she said.
Sharmila, who called Mr Ray a mentor, said his films are "contemporary" and relevant even today across the world.
"Wherever I go, be it Paris, Los Angeles etc., I see people enjoying his films. They appreciate them so much. His films are contemporary and are relevant even today.
"When I reached a mature age and looked back at the films and thought of Manik da, I see I understand the film so much better. Looking back I discovered him and I continue to discover him. So I am a great fan, will remain so and he means a lot to me," said Sharmila.
Aparna echoed. "Without him I wouldn't be me." Madhabi said Satyajit Ray was true to his roots. "He used to watch a lot of English films but he was always true to his roots," she said.

I have been traveling a bit in what I am calling my second home. That is what has inspired me to do this little overview of a few Must-Dos in Queensland, Australia.
If you fly into Brisbane get out of the city as quickly as possible. This is the first on the list.
1. Brisbane Southbank
Brisbane is a beautiful city, but not a place you want to waste your precious time. Spend Maximum one day in Brisbane and then head up the coast where real Queensland is coming to life.
When you are in Brisbane, take a walk on Queens Street, direction west, towards Victoria Bridge. When you cross the bridge experience Brisbane Art Gallery. The Building in itself is an Architectural masterpiece. What is my Must-see, is the Brisbane Southbank man-made lagoon and beach. For Europeans this is quite a unique sight. After enjoying Southbank and possibly a great lunch at one of the nice cafés, with the view of the skyline reflecting in the river, take the Goodwill Bridge to the Botanic gardens, and you are once again back down-town. Should you have an extra day in Brizzy, why not visit Brisbane's official site and find out what is going on right now.
2. Australia Zoo
Australia Zoo is the first stop you want to make when you get out of the City.
Take the opportunity to feed kangaroos and get to hold a koala, or just let you wonder in this massive beautiful park filled with creatures from all over the world. Don't miss the Croc show, where all the parks most spectacular animals are showcased. The Crocodiles are not that impressive, but the rest is. Australia Zoo for sure a Must-Do when in Queensland!
3. Noosa
Don't miss out of Noosa, which is the posh part of the Sunshine Coast. Noosa got beautiful beaches, beautiful houses, beautiful women, yes Noosa got it all. Spend half a day here and take a walk in the national park, discover heisting's street, or just beach it. The Noosa Surf Club is the place you want to experience a great Australian Lunch in a relaxed environment with great Australian self-service, and the greatest view in town. Get a seat outside!
4. Tin Can Bay – Dolphin feeding
Have you ever been hand feeding a dolphin?
I Australia there is a lot of opportunities to do so, but probably one of the cheapest is Tin Can Bay Dolphin Centre. You have to get up early if you are not staying in town. However there is absolutely no reason for staying in Tin Can Bay overnight. Probably the most boring town in the area. However a beautiful morning drive from Noosa and up will take you two hours and will be one of the most beautiful drives you have done. Be there around 7 to 8 and the dolphins will be in for a morning snack.
5. Fraser Island
Fraser Island is one of the more expensive, but for sure one of the most beautiful. Experience the world's largest sand island on a 2 or 3 day trip. The longer the better! I have previously described Fraser as paradise on earth, and I must say I still stand with that. A great natural stop after Tin Can Bay. Remember to ask to go see Indian Head, and you feel like you are a part of a Pirate of the Caribbean movie.
6. Town of 1770 or Agnes Water – The world´s cheapest Surf School
Agnes Waters, or better known for the town of 1770, where Captain Cook for the first time sat foot on the Australian Continent, are where you will find what is known as the world's cheapest surf-school. For only 17 Australian Dollar can you enjoy a great 3-4 hours of surfing in the Pacific Ocean. You have not really been in Australia if you haven't been surfing!
7. Koorana Crocodile Farm
After been surfing an enjoying Town of 1770, make your way up to Rockhampton and drive off towards Emu Park. Here you will find Koorana Crocodile Farm, which for sure will make even the toughest machos fear the ancient creatures of nature. At Koorana you can put your teeth's to a real life Croc Stake or you can just join the guided feeding tour of the crocs, where you will see why you should keep clear of the rivers of Rockhampton and north. You won't be disappointed at Koorana and are keen; you can even get a chance to hold a real life crocodile.
8. Whitsundays Sailing
Whitsundays Islands might be the reason why you are heading north and this is as far as I have made it so far. However this does not make the place any less attractive. What everybody does at the Whitsundays Islands is to go sailing, and you should do the same. Why not experience whales, dolphins and the best of Mother Nature from a great yacht cruising these beautiful waters. Do yourself a favour and book a tour on a real sports sailing ship as the old Volvo Ocean Race boats or similar, for the thrill of real life sailing. Whitsundays is also the place for snorkelling with a million fish and if you are lucky you might see a turtle.
That was seven of the best Must-Dos/Sees of Queensland, but maybe you can help me finish the list? If I missed anything, please feel welcome to share and I might get inspired to some new places to discover.

spath command enables you to extract information from the structured data formats XML and JSON. The command stores this information in one or more fields. The command also highlights the syntax in the displayed events list.
You can also use the
spath() function with the
eval command. For more information, see the evaluation functions.
spath [input=<field>] [output=<field>] [path=<datapath> | <datapath>]
Optional arguments
- input
- Syntax: input=<field>
- Description: The field to read in and extract values.
- Default: _raw
- output
- Syntax: output=<field>
- Description: If specified, the value extracted from the path is written to this field name.
- Default: If you do not specify an
outputargument, the value for the
pathargument becomes the field name for the extracted value.
- path
- Syntax: path=<datapath> | <datapath>
- Description: The location path to the value that you want to extract. The location path can be specified as
path=<datapath>or as just
datapath. If you do not specify the
path=, the first unlabeled argument is used as the location path. A location path is composed of one or more location steps, separated by periods. An example of this is 'foo.bar.baz'. A location step is composed of a field name and an optional index surrounded by curly brackets. The index can be an integer, to refer to the position of the data in an array (this differs between JSON and XML), or a string, to refer to an XML attribute. If the index refers to an XML attribute, specify the attribute name with an @ symbol.
spath command is a distributable streaming command. See Command types.
Location path omitted
When used with no
path argument, the
spath command runs in "auto-extract" mode. In the "auto-extract" mode, the
spath command finds and extracts all the fields from the first 5000 characters in the input field. These fields default to
_raw if another input source is not specified. If a path is provided, the value of this path is extracted to a field named by the path or to a field specified by the output argument, if the output argument is provided.
A location path contains one or more location steps
A location path contains one or more location steps, each of which has a context that is specified by the location steps that precede it. The context for the top-level location step is implicitly the top-level node of the entire XML or JSON document.
The location step is composed of a field name and an optional array index
The location step is composed of a field name and an optional array index indicated by curly brackets around an integer or a string.
Array indices mean different things in XML and JSON. For example, JSON uses zero-based indexing. In JSON,
foo.bar{3} refers to the fourth element of the
bar child of the
foo element. In XML, this same path refers to the third
bar child of
Using wildcards in place of an array index
spath command lets you use wildcards to take the place of an array index in JSON. Now, you can use the location path
entities.hashtags{}.text to get the text for all of the hashtags, as opposed to specifying
entities.hashtags{1}.text, and so on. The referenced path, here
entities.hashtags, has to refer to an array for this to make sense. Otherwise, you get an error just like with regular array indices.
This also works with XML. For example,
catalog.book and
catalog.book{} are equivalent. Both get you all the books in the catalog.
Alternatives to the
spath command
If you are using autokv or index-time field extractions, the path extractions are performed for you at index time.
You do not need to explicitly use the
spath command to provide a path.
If using indexed_extractions=JSON or using KV_MODE=JSON in the
props.conf file, then the
spath command is not necessary to explicitly use.
Basic examples
1. Specify an output field and path
This example shows how to specify a output field and path.
... | spath output=myfield path=foo.bar.baz
2. Specify just the <datapath>
For the
path argument, you can specify the location path with or without the
path=. In this example the <datapath> is
... | spath output=myfield server.name
3. Specify an output field and path based on an array
For example, you have this array.
{ "foo" : [1,2] }
To specify the output field and path, use this syntax.
... | spath output=myfield path=foo{1}
4. Specify an output field and a path that uses a nested array
For example, you have this nested array.
{ "foo" : { "bar" : [ {"zoo" : 1}, {"baz" : 2} ] } }
To specify the output and path from this nested array, use this syntax.
... | spath output=myfield path=foo.bar{}.baz
5. Specify the output field and a path for an XML attribute
Use the @ symbol to specify an XML attribute. Consider the following XML list of books and authors.
<?xml version="1.0"> <purchases> <book> <author>Martin, George R.R.</author> <title yearPublished=1996>A Game of Thrones</title> <title yearPublished=1998>A Clash of Kings</title> </book> <book> <author>Clarke, Susanna</author> <title yearPublished=2004>Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell</title> </book> <book> <author>Kay, Guy Gavriel</author> <title yearPublished=1990>Tigana</title> </book> <book> <author>Bujold, Lois McMasters</author> <title yearPublished=1986>The Warrior's Apprentice</title> </book> </purchases>
Use this search to return the path for the book and the year it was published.
... | spath output=dates path=purchases.book.title{@yearPublished} | table dates
In this example, the output is a single multivalue result that lists all of the years the books were published.
Extended examples
1: GitHub
As an administrator of a number of large Git repositories, you want to:
- See who has committed the most changes and to which repository
- Produce a list of the commits submitted for each user
Suppose you are Indexing JSON data using the GitHub PushEvent webhook. You can use the
spath command to extract fields called repository, commit_author, and commit_id:
... | spath output=repository path=repository.url
... | spath output=commit_author path=commits{}.author.name
... | spath output=commit_id path=commits{}.id
To see who has committed the most changes to a repository, run the search.
... | top commit_author by repository
To see the list of commits by each user, run this search.
... | stats values(commit_id) by commit_author
2: Extract a subset of a XML attribute
This example shows how to extract values from XML attributes and elements.
<vendorProductSet vendorID="2"> <product productID="17" units="mm" > <prodName nameGroup="custom"> <locName locale="all">APLI 01209</locName> </prodName> <desc descGroup="custom"> <locDesc locale="es">Precios</locDesc> <locDesc locale="fr">Prix</locDesc> <locDesc locale="de">Preise</locDesc> <locDesc locale="ca">Preus</locDesc> <locDesc locale="pt">Preços</locDesc> </desc> </product>
To extract the values of the
locDesc elements (Precios, Prix, Preise, etc.), use:
... | spath output=locDesc path=vendorProductSet.product.desc.locDesc
To extract the value of the
locale attribute (es, fr, de, etc.), use:
... | spath output=locDesc.locale path=vendorProductSet.product.desc.locDesc{@locale}
To extract the attribute of the 4th locDesc (ca), use:
... | spath path=vendorProductSet.product.desc.locDesc{4}{@locale}
3: Extract and expand JSON events with multi-valued fields
mvexpand command only works on one multivalued field. This example walks through how to expand a JSON event that has more than one multivalued field into individual events for each field value. For example, given this event with
{ "widget": { "text": [ { "data": "Click here", "size": 36 }, { "data": "Learn more", "size": 37 }, { "data": "Help", "size": 38 }, ] } }
First, start with a search to extract the fields from the JSON. Because no
path argument is specified,
spath command runs in "auto-extract" mode and extracts all of the fields from the first 5000 characters in the input field. The fields are then renamed and placed in a table.
sourcetype=json | spath | rename widget.text.size AS size, widget.text.data AS data | table _time,size,data
_time size data --------------------------- ---- ----------- 2018-10-18 14:45:46.000 BST 36 Click here 37 Learn more 38 Help
Then, use the eval function, mvzip(), to create a new multivalued field named x, with the values of the size and data:
sourcetype=json | spath | rename widget.text.size AS size, widget.text.data AS data | eval x=mvzip(data,size) | table _time,data,size,x
_time data size x --------------------------- ----------- ----- -------------- 2018-10-18 14:45:46.000 BST Click here 36 Click here,36 Learn more 37 Learn more,37 Help 38 Help,38
Now, use the mvexpand command to create individual events based on x and the eval function mvindex() to redefine the values for data and size.
sourcetype=json | spath | rename widget.text.size AS size, widget.text.data AS data | eval x=mvzip(data,size)| mvexpand x | eval x = split(x,",") | eval data=mvindex(x,0) | eval size=mvindex(x,1) | table _time,data, size
_time data size --------------------------- ---------- ---- 2018-10-18 14:45:46.000 BST Click here 36 2018-10-18 14:45:46.000 BST Learn more 37 2018-10-18 14:45:46.000 BST Help 38

How can i use this command?
| spath output=type path=phoneNumbers{?(@.isbn=="0-395-19395-8")}.type
For this JSON:
"firstName": "John",
"lastName" : "doe",
"age" : 26,
"address" : {
"streetAddress": "naist street",
"city" : "Nara",
"postalCode" : "630-0192"
"phoneNumbers": [
"type" : "iPhone",
"number": "0123-4567-8888",
"isbn": "0-395-19395-8"
"type" : "home",
"number": "0123-4567-8910"
Thanks for the feedback on example #4. There were several problems with this example. I determined that the XML was missing an end </book> tag, the path specified was not correct, and that the search example did not include an XML attribute, so using the @ symbol did not return anything.
I have corrected the example. There is a more detailed example of extracting attributes in example #6.
The example #4 (XML - books and authors) doesn't work. The spath command shown returns zero results. I haven't yet figured out the proper syntax.
Thank you for pointing out the zero-based indexing. I've corrected the description.
Your documentation says, " foo.bar{3} refers to the third element of the bar child of the foo element.". That is not true. The indexing is (thankfully) zero-based, so "foo.bar{3}" actually refers to the *fourth* element.
I have fixed the typo. I don't know who came up with that example, but thanks for pointing out the problems. I'll look in this and get the example corrected.
> fields's values.
Regarding your example JSON:
{"widget": {
"text": {
"data": "Click here",
"size": 36,
"data": "Learn more",
"size": 37,
"data": "Help",
"size": 38,
Setting aside the missing closing brace and the trailing comma...
From RFC 7159 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159#section-4):
> The names within an object SHOULD be unique.
(There's more, but I'll leave the rest to the link.)
Your thoughts? Did you confect that JSON - with its multiple "data" and "size" object names - yourself, or did you base it on JSON generated by an application (which one)?
Would also like to know a way to use SPATH in transforms, I am using input="field" and can't figure out how to do that using KV_MODE=json.
How do I put spath in transforms.conf to enable the auto extractions of the fields instead of manual retrieval ?
Example are good, but to me it is not clear why in : "Example 3: Extract and expand JSON events with multvalued fields" you first concatenate all values in X, then made an vmexpand, and then split it to have seperate values... ?<br />Could you explain a little more that part ?
Example of the JSON payload would help.

| 6.6°C Dublin
Taylor Lautner has been honoured with a perfect Twi-likeness.
The US heart-throb, who plays Jacob Black in the hit Twilight film series, has been recreated as a wax figure.
Now he will do battle with his screen nemesis to see which is most popular among visitors to London attraction Madame Tussauds.
The Lautner figure is standing shoulder to shoulder with Robert Pattinson - who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the supernatural romances - and visitors will be able to choose which should be given an area of his own.
The new figure took four months to create, at a cost of £150,000, and is dressed in jeans and a leather jacket.
Liz Edwards of Tussauds said: "Taylor was one of the most requested personalities in 2011.
"We wanted to do something fun to celebrate Taylor's arrival and what better way than to try and answer the ultimate question - Taylor vs R-Patz - who is the supreme king of hearts?"

Title: Green Manucode
Subtitle: Manucodia chalybea
Publication : The Birds of New Guinea and the adjacent Papuan islands, including many new species recently discovered in Australia
Author: John Gould (1804-1881) Completed after the Author's death by Richard Bowdler Sharpe (1847-1909)
Artist: William Matthew Hart (1830-1908)
Paper size: 56,0 x 38,0 cm, exactly as the original.
Edition: The edition will be limited to 150 prints, numbered 1/150 to 150/150, signed and stamped with a blind embossing.
Certificate of Authenticity: On request
About the Original: 320 hand-colored lithographs after John Gould and W. Hart Gould conceived of this sweeping, lavish book as a complement to his unprecedented Birds of Asia. The Birds of New Guinea was Gould's last full-scale work, left incomplete on his death in 1881. Gould completed twelve of the twenty-five parts, and the task of finishing the project fell to Richard Bowdler Sharpe, a superbly qualified successor, who had been Gould's colleague, assistant and friend. One of Gould's most exotic works, the five magnificent volumes of the Birds of New Guinea contain an extensive series of beautiful images of birds of paradise, bower birds, parrots, parakeets, cockatoos, kingfishers and hawk-owls. The birds of paradise were so strikingly beautiful that Sharpe later issued what amounted to a supplement of this work, focusing on the most colorful and exquisite subjects.
All of the 320 images are extraordinary for their color and artistry, interesting backdrops and animated compositions. Gould and Sharpe created some of their most engaging and active scenes of bird life in the Birds of New Guinea, and the great popular reception of the work was such that it was one of their only productions that led to a sequel, Sharp's Birds of Paradise (1891-98). Missing from that later production, however, was the almost overwhelming variety of species of the Birds of New Guinea, which, like the Birds of Asia, was the most comprehensive chronicle of the island's ornithology ever issued.

WACO, Texas – The Lipscomb Lady Bisons won their first six games of the season, the best start ever for the softball program.
After splitting Saturday with two top 25 teams the Lady Bisons stand 7-1, their best start to a season in the NCAA era. They started the day with an 8-0 loss in four innings to No. 16/18-ranked Missouri and finished with a 1-0 win over No. 14/16-rated Baylor, the host of the Getterman Classic.
In 2007 and 2003 the Lady Bisons started with 6-2 records.
"It is still early and conference play is what matters most," Lipscomb coach Kristin Ryman said. "Today was as big of a challenge as we will face this year, but we don't want to get too high.
"When we do a good job of staying in the moment and taking care of what is important right now, we are successful. We had a rough start to the day, but rebounded extremely well."
Ryman and her staff did the best they could to persuade the Lady Bisons to forget about the Missouri game and move on. Sometimes players listen to their coaches. Sometimes they don't. Obviously, the Lady Bisons listened.
"We told the players after the Missouri game that they had to move forward," Ryman said. "We had to put that behind us, have some fun and go get another big win.
"The game of softball is so mental. Sometimes players will struggle to let it go, especially if they made mistakes. And we made mistakes against Missouri. We made errors. We left a lot of runners on base. We gave up a big hit. It all just kind of crumbled away. Credit our players for letting the Missouri game go."
The Lady Bisons relied on a pair of Texans to turn things around in the Baylor game.
Bridgette Begle broke a scoreless tie in the sixth with a one-out triple to right center field. Gracey Aguirre, who had reached base on a throwing error by the Baylor shortstop, scored the only run of the game.
"Almost every single inning we were getting runners on and giving ourselves opportunities," Ryman said. "Gracey put the ball in play, hustled it out and made something happen.
"Then Bridget lined one into the gap. She had a couple of pretty good at bats early but chased pitches late. It was really cool to see her get that big hit and find a way to boost us that late in the game. We had two Texas girls doing it for us in the clutch."
Right-hander Tanner Sanders, 4-0, threw her second shutout in as many days. She gave up three hits, walked four and hit one batter. She did not record a strikeout.
The Lady Bisons faced one of the top pitchers in the country in Baylor's Whitney Canion who struck out 11 in the losing effort. The Lady Bisons had runners on base in all but one inning.
"She is an All-American-caliber pitcher," Ryman said. "We were putting balls in play against her early in the game and that was a good sign of things to come. We kept battling and battling.
"We gave ourselves opportunities. If you do that every inning something good is going to happen."
In the Missouri game the Lady Bisons struggled from the start. Missouri struck for one run in the first and then capitalized on a pair of Lipscomb errors and four hits in the second inning to score six runs. The big hit of the inning was a grand slam over the right field fence by Emily Crane. Missouri closed out the game with a run in the fourth.
Heather Parker, a right-hander, started for the Lady Bisons. In 1.1 innings she gave up five hits and seven runs, two earned. Parker slipped to 1-1.
Left-hander Ashley Anderson came on in relief and threw 2.2 innings. She scattered three hits, walked two and gave up one unearned run.
The Lady Bisons managed only three hits against Missouri.
The Lady Bisons close out the Getterman Classic Sunday at 9 a.m. against UAB, a rival for several seasons.
"We have a lot of fight in us," Ryman said. "As excited as our girls were to play some ranked teams, UAB is the game they want.
"It is a neat rivalry. We have had some really great non-conference games with them. Their team has had tremendous success. They do a lot of things well. We don't want to walk away with a loss."
