CDO/Hibernate Store
The CDO Hibernate store is a CDO data store using Teneo and Hibernate. This combination of tools gives the user/developer the following advantages:
- Database support: Hibernate provides superior runtime Object Relational Mapping to many different relational databases. We test with mysql and hsqldb but there no known obstacles for using CDO on all other databases supported by Hibernate.
- HQL: the CDO Hibernate store makes it possible to execute HQL queries on the client. The complete HQL syntax is supported (incl. joins, aggregations, functions, etc.).
- Automatic Model-Relational Mapping: Teneo takes care of automatic mapping of your model to a relation database schema. The relational database schema is very readable and makes use of common database constructs as foreign keys, indexes etc. The automatic mapping can be manually overridden using JPA annotations in the model or in a separate XML file.
The CDO Hibernate store is very much focused on creating a readable, sensible, practical and performant relational database schema. The store is especially suited for data oriented business administrative (ERP-like) applications with a RCP interface.
The documentation for the CDO Hibernate Store consists of the following sections.
The architecture document describes how the different components of the store operate together.
In the download and install section the required plugins and their download locations are listed.
The configuration document discusses the setup and configuration of the CDO Hibernate store (database, launch configuration, model, etc.). The description is supported by an example Eclipse project which is available in cvs.
The first tutorial gives a quick intro in how to connect from a client to the CDO Hibernate datastore. This tutorial illustrates that for a standard usage there is no difference in using a CDO Hibernate store compared to other stores. A downloadable Example Eclipse project is used to give the reader a good start. The examples use junit testcases on the client to facilitate easy testing and debugging.
A distinguishing feature of the CDO Hibernate store is the support for HQL queries. The CDO Hibernate Store HQL page contains several examples of queries ranging from very simple to queries with functions and array results. The example queries can be run directly using a provided Eclipse project.
The CDO Hibernate store makes use of Teneo for automatic mapping of ecore models to relational database schemas. The model relational mapping page describes how the mapping can be extended and overridden using JPA annotations in the model. The same example Eclipse project as in previous steps is used to illustrate the description.
Current status
Currently the CDO Hibernate datastore successfully passes 540 out of a total of about 580 testcases. The 40 remaining testcases are related to functions and features not (yet) supported by the CDO Hibernate store.
The CDO Hibernate Store currently does not support the following CDO features:
- auditing and revisions: this topic is being researched. Support for auditing as it is currently implemented in CDO implies that there are no foreign key constraints in the database. This has to be matched with the focus of the CDO Hibernate store on supporting more traditional ERP/Business Administration applications.
- XATransactions: xatransactions are not tested well and not all test cases pass currently

Webgame Wednesday on Thursday: Experimental Shooter
Do you like to shoot things? In video games, I mean? Well, Experimental Shooter might just be the ticket for you. The objective of this graphically simple, almost Asteroids-esque shooting game is ... to figure out what the objective is. Each level requires you to blast some little white balls. But how? Devious puzzle action only adds to the action. Gotta love that soundtrack too.

Yesod Web Framework
Yesod is a Haskell web framework for productive development of type-safe, RESTful, high performance web applications.
- Email: email@example.com,
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 19
- Last updated: 2012-12-11
- Percentage of completion: 10%
Detailed Description
This is a packaging effort: the Yesod stack of packages requires quite a lot of new Haskell libraries to be added to Fedora. Some basic packages have already been done for a long time but there are a lot left to be added.
Benefit to Fedora
Yesod is probably the most high profile Web framework for Haskell, and also described in a book. Since building it all by hand oneself can be non-trivial, tedious, and time confusing it is to Fedora's advantage that developers will be able to install it easily. Yesod is already included in Debian, Ubuntu and some other Linux distributions.
Yesod stack of libraries will be packaged following package versions in latest yesod-platform (currently 1.1.5):
- Package yesod-core (? packages)
- Package yesod (? packages)
- Optionally package any extra pieces from yesod-platform.
How To Test
- Install with: yum install yesod
- Run: yesod init
- In created directory run: yesod devel
- Access to http://localhost:3000/
User Experience
Users will be able to install Yesod directly without having to build it all themselves, making it easier to learn, test and development web applications in Haskell using Yesod.
Contingency Plan
None necessary - just ship completed subset of packages.
Release Notes
- Yesod Haskell web framework for productive development of type-safe, RESTful, high performance web applications is now available in Fedora.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - For the second straight game, the bats were awake and dealing for the Tennessee Tech baseball team. The Golden Eagles won its ninth straight series of the season Sunday afternoon, defeating Austin Peay 12-4 and grabbing sole possession of second place in the Ohio Valley Conference.
The Golden Eagle bats used an overall team effort on the day, outhitting one of the OVC's most potent offenses for the second consecutive day. Tech lit up the Governors' pitching staff, collecting 15 hits and 12 runs.
Three Tech players smacked home runs in the contest. Junior Daniel Miles clubbed his fourth long ball in two games, going back-to-back with designated hitter Brandon Thomasson in the second inning. Junior slugger Zach Stephens hammered a two-run shot in the fifth inning. It marked both Thomasson's and Stephens' eighth moon shots of the season, tying both players for the league lead. Miles recorded his seventh four-bagger of the year, ranking him second in the OVC.
Craig Massoni led the Austin Peay offense for the second game in a row, collecting three hits and driving in three runs. Ryan Quick was dealt his second loss of the season, giving up five earned runs in 2.1 innings of work.
The Tech offense got things going first in the contest, using back-to-back homer from Thomasson and Miles to take an early 2-0 lead in the second inning. The Governors answered quickly, evening up the score with two runs in the bottom of the second.
Then the Golden Eagles really went to work. In the top of the third, junior Zach Zarzour led off the inning with single to center field. Austin Wulf followed suit, singling to left field. Stephens walked in the next at-bat to load the bases. After a quick out, Miles reached base on a fielder's choice, driving in Zarzour. An error by the APSU third baseman allowed both Wulf and Stephens to score as well, while Miles advanced all the way to third base.
Dylan Bosheers came up next, drilling a single to right center field and driving in Daniel Miles to wrap up the scoring for the Golden Eagles in the third inning. Austin Peay added one more run in the bottom of the third, but the damage had been done by that point, as Tech took a 6-3 lead heading to the fourth inning.
Stephens roped a double down the right field line in the fourth inning, allowing for an RBI single by Thomasson in the next at-bat.
Then the fifth inning came. The Golden Eagle picked up four more runs in the top of fifth, using a James Abraham single to get things started. The senior promptly stole two bases, setting up Austin Wulf for an RBI double after two quick outs. Stephens stepped in next, continuing the Tech scoring effort with a two-run bomb to left field. Bosheers once again wrapped up the scoring in the inning, driving an RBI double to left field to give the Golden Eagles an 11-3 advantage.
Austin Peay and Tech would both add one more run apiece in the contest, allowing the Golden Eagles to collect its 12th OVC win of the season.
Senior righty Nick Price picked up his fifth win of the season, throwing 3.1 innings of relief. He scattered five hits and struck out five batters to close out the contest.
The Golden Eagles squad will wrap up its five-game road trip on Tuesday, April 9 with a contest at Middle Tennessee. Tech will be looking for revenge after the Blue Raiders won in Cookeville earlier this season, coming back from a 7-1 deficit to defeat the Golden Eagles 9-7. Game time is set for 6 p.m. CDT.

Yes, yes, I know. Lucky PMM. Roll your eyes. La-di-dah darling, la-di-dah. Well I'm going to give it a fair review, and if you're in the market for a phone, perhaps this can be part of your homework? Your research, if you will? There's a reason Samsung are trumping Apple.
I come from using a BlackBerry (for two years) - and the Samsung Galaxy Note is world's - universes, galaxies ahead of that phone. I hated the BB. With. A. Vengeance.
This phone? The Samsung Galaxy Note? Man. How I love this phone. And that's completely unbiased. It's supremely user friendly - and I can actually do stuff. Like play on Instagram! Like access my emails readily. Like type without making a bazillion mistakes.
Over the years, mobile phones have become smaller and smaller. Ridiculously so. My fingers? They have not shrunk, and therefore typing messages has becoming increasingly frustrating - so I just started sending messages with loads of mistakes. And a disclaimer at the bottom that blamed it on the ever shrinking keys. Terrible, I know, phone makers stop making things smaller.
But the new Galaxy Note? You can either type (on the touch screen) or there's an S-Pen, it can read your handwriting (awesome, I know!) and switch it to typed text.
When we visited the Royal Easter Show, the Samsung stand hosted three artists who did caricatures on the phone. This gives you an idea of how ace the capabilities are. Because look at my awesome massive nose. And superhero chin. Rad. You can draw. On. My. Phone. Matt is totally into that. As are the kids. And I can write myself notes. Because it's a phone and a tablet.
You can read about the features here and see all the tech specifications here. But below I've collated my own loves about this bloody awesome phone.
- The large screen size. It's supremely user friendly for me - I can read emails, watch video content, look at photos, and also keep the smalls occupied with the game, YouTube etc. The iPhone is pint-sized compared to this baby.
- It's an android. Which doesn't mean it's being beamed up by E.T. - it means it opens up a whole world to you.
- Samsung has a whole range of apps that are free! And I can use Instagram. And a whole bunch more (I am full of glee about this!)
- The camera takes some pretty rad photos. Plus I can mess with them afterwards - draw on them, write on them, whatever tickles my fancy
- If I was meeting someone somewhere a bit tricky, I can take a screenshot of a map, then draw on the map to show them directions, then email it to them. Can't do that on any other phone.
- I can use the whole Microsoft Office suite on here. So if I am out and about and need to update a spreadsheet for my boss in a hurry? No problem, just pull it up on the screen, update and send it back. A cinch.
- Do you know how often I get lost driving around Sydney? Because I rely on ye olde UBD. However the Galaxy Note has Navigon installed. Truly. Divine.
- Super crisp high definition display - makes viewing so much better on a good screen
- It's a very impressive phone. The IT boys at work were oohing and ahhhing over it. I let them look at it while they set it up. For 10 minutes. Then I reclaimed it.
- The battery life - I need to charge it every night - however this could be to do with my excessive consumption of Instagram
- It doesn't fit into my back jeans pocket - so my butt does not get to vibrate anymore. Shame.
I was chatting with someone on Twitter the other night - and she also told me that if I had a Samsung television, I could do something jiggy with the phone, and it would be the TV's remote control. Way to freak out the smalls!
Full Disclosure: Samsung gave me the new Samsung Galaxy Note to review. I was not paid for this review. And I freaking love this phone. It's unnatural how much I love it.

Rum Review: Ron Bermudez Anniversario
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 14, 2010
This is the third review I am publishing with respect to the rums of Ron Bermudez . I previously reviewed the Ron Anejo Bermudez 5 Anos and the Bermudez 1852 Ron Anejo 10 Anos Don Armando based upon sample bottles provided to my by Westway L. LTD. My sample bottle of the Ron Bermudez Anniversario rum was also supplied by Westway L. Limited, as they are introducing the Bermudez rums into my home Province of Alberta. The Anniverario is a well aged rum full of character and oak flavour. It was a delight to cap off my reviews of the Bermudez range with this outstanding rum.
Here is an excerpt from my review:
"…Toffee and caramel sit in the background supporting the spicier flavour of the oak. There is also a firm leathery smoke in the rum which is full of the flavours of dried fruits (raisins, dates, and prunes). When I sampled the younger 5 year old Bermudez rum, I had a vague impression that there was a metallic taste in the rum; but now, in the older Ron Bermudez Anniversario, this metallic element is more identifiable…"

Try, if u can find a liquor store in Manhattan NY, uptown Washington Heights where there is large Dominican community, I Know for a fact they have Brugal and Barcelo but I have never looked for Bermudez. Good Luck!!
February 8, 2011 at 9:22 pm
I have been searching everywhere in Austin, Texas USA to purchase this rum. I have some friends in the Dominican Republic that tell me alot about the aging process that is used to make your various rums. I cannot find anyone in Texas that sells this highly acclaimed rum. I have also tried to purchase this rum through the internet and have not found a website that will allow me to purchase it. Can you please provide some suggestions.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

I eat the finest cuisines, in the finest of places Stuff my mouth full and always say thank you. But if it's raised in a cage, and it can't even move, if it's hormone filled and in a bad mood. I'm gonna pass on that. Reach for something better. The only milk I'll drink comes from the nipple of a soy bean. Veggies make you live forever, and they seem to taste much better. when they're cooked and grown with love. So give a chef who knows what's up a hug. Momma just can't seem to get it, Papa he just rolls his eyes. When I tell them I'm much healthier, they just say that it's all lies. But beans, nuts, fruits and veggies can really fill the belly. Get you vitamins you need, shiny hair and extra speed. Don't take that meat-wich any further, I want a marinated, deep fried, hand-tied mushroom burger. I like it! We gotta stand strong for our feathered furry sometimes scaly animal friends and their little babies. 'Cuz I wouldn't want to live in a cage in a dark warehouse killed at an early age. Pumped full of hormones, sleeping in my feces. Never met my mother, raised by machines. Never get sunshine never get green, but that's just me. [That girl loves fruit leather.] So ask us what we're eating. Delicious and repeating, fruits and veggies are so nice. With a slice of tempeh, yes, I'll have that twice. Don't forget the legumes!
I saw the awe-inspiring magnificence that is Leslie Hall a couple of years ago in Cambridge, MA at the urging of my friend Millie, who assured me I would love it. I had never heard of Leslie and the Lys, but sure enough, it was one of the most fun experiences of my entire life so far. So much so that I even mentioned it on my little food blog! I mean, really. I so rarely go to shows, and I ACTUALLY DANCED.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – In another early season nonconference matchup, the King University women's basketball team faced crosstown rival Virginia Intermont College on Thursday night at the Student Center Complex. The Tornado took an early lead before the Cobras took the lead and didn't look back as they took the game 66-61.
Bonnie Durrett drilled a three-point basket just over a minute into the game, and King led 5-1 after a pair of Kelly Jackson free throws before the Cobra offense picked up. Virginia Intermont (3-1) went on a 19-5 run that was capped with eight straight points to take a 20-10 lead almost eight minutes into the first half.
After a Jackson jumper, the Cobras scored 13 straight points to take a commanding 33-12 lead with more than six minutes remaining in the first half. Alley Sprouse gave King (1-2) their first points in six minutes and 50 seconds when she made a jumper with 4:59 remaining in the first half. The Cobras earned their largest lead of the night at 38-16, and held a 40-23 advantage at halftime.
The Tornado shot 21.6 percent from the field in the first half, including 13.6 percent from three-point range while Virginia Intermont shot 42.9 percent from the field and 50.0 from three.
Durrett looked to spark the King offense in the second half as she made a layup with an assist to Tia Keitt to start a 6-0 run. Sydney Harris capped the spurt with back-to-back fastbreak layups to pull King within 42-34 with 12:34 remaining.
Virginia Intermont stretched their lead back to 15 before the Tornado made another run. Brittany Stringer and Durrett drilled back-to-back triples to pull King back within 58-54 with 3:11 remaining and bring the Student Center crowd to its feet. However, the Cobras responded to extend their lead back to nine points, eventually taking the game 66-61.
King shot 30.0 percent from the floor and 18.9 percent from long range in the game while the Cobras shot 39.7 percent from the floor and 46.2 percent from three-point range. The Tornado outrebounded Virginia Intermont 50-40, including 16 offensive rebounds.
Harris led King with 18 points while Durrett posted her second straight double-double with 17 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Keitt dished out a team-best five assists to go along with eight points.
King will be in action again on Tuesday when they travel to take on Salem International University. Tipoff from Salem, W.Va., is scheduled for 5:30 p.m.

OP Acheivements: The Last Straw
OMG Nerf the President of United States Achievement.
Its not fair that only one person gets to have it every 4 years and some people can get it twice. Not all of us have the time and money to work 16 hours a day for 22 months to get an achievement.
All Blizzard does is design content for end game raiders and the most hardcore of players that don't have real lives. Why does Blizzard habitually ignore more casual players? If blizzard doesn't remove this achievement and title or nerf it so that it is available for every one I am going to cancel my subscription and quit the game.
(Sorry, guys. I had to do it)

Getting Started… Again
Once again, I'm getting started with blogging. This time I have a plan of attack – so important! I have a theme and categories and so many ideas and thoughts that I want to share with the world. Check back often, or subscribe to updates, and see if what I have to offer is for you (or someone you may know).
I intend to make this blog everything about being a Parent, from me to you, without claiming to be a medical expert or professional. What I am is a professional Architect / Entrepreneur turned Stay-at-home Mom. But more than "just a Mother," I am a daughter, a sister, a wife, a friend, a Woman.
I'm really excited to be on this new journey and I hope you decide to join me. 🙂

Marcus Gilbert selected by the steelers in the second round provides many things...takes care of a huge need with the oline, is a quality value, and adds chemistry to the line with the gator conenction we have with former team mates now.
Gilbert is a massive man at 6-6 330, but for a man that size he shows incredible quickness, agility, and pass protecting skills. Not the most powerful tackle but he does a great job of sealing the edge and while not a domination run blocker it is not for a lack of effort.
With his nimble feet he will likely be groomed as a future LT, but i would expect him to mean the end of tony hills, possibly trai essex right away. With flo returning it will give gilbert a chance to get stronger and play with flo at RT on a rotational basis since flo often gets banged up or needs to be spelled for a series or two. Hopefully this does happen and he can get his feet wet as a rookie playing RT part time.
Hopefully he will work his way up to being the backup at LT as a rookie because jonathan scott is truly terrible. All in all i love the pick and the value. Not gonna lie i was rooting for brown HARD when they were on the clock...but i was not disappointed with this pick who i have had on my radar for months now as a potential steeler target. Taking him made as much sense as taking curtis brown, and i really like how that turned out.
Just really made me happy following up Heyward with a second rounder that i really feel will be worth a damn on the steelers in the very near future. Really i see him as being everything i hoped hills was gonna be

Paul Thurrott on the next version of Windows and the future of the platform.
In some ways, the most interesting thing about Threshold is how it recasts Windows 8 as the next Vista. It's an acknowledgment that what came before didn't work, and didn't resonate with customers. And though Microsoft will always be able to claim that Windows 9 wouldn't have been possible without the important foundational work they had done first with Windows 8 - just as was the case with Windows 7 and Windows Vista - there's no way to sugarcoat this. Windows 8 has set back Microsoft, and Windows, by years, and possibly for good.
With even Paul Thurrott claiming Windows is in trouble, it becomes virtually impossible to deny it is so.

Cordless Blinds, Shades, & Window Treatments
- The safest bet in blinds and shades
- Child and pet friendly without cords
- Clean, elegant look without cord clutter
- Gentle push/pull lift from bottom rail
- Simple, convenient operation
Cordless blinds and shades offer a convenient and safe option now available on most styles of window treatments. Instead of a traditional lift cord, the shade is operated with a gentle push or pull on the bottom rail to position the shade at any height. With no dangling cords, shades are safer for children and pets and have a clean, uncluttered look. Simply select the cordless option when customizing your shade and be sure you can reach the window at the maximum height you would raise the shade - if not, consider a motorized window treatment.

PSA- Definition of Humbling
Lower (someone) in dignity or importance. That is the 1st definition.
I'm tired of athletes saying they feel 'humble" after achieving something great. For example; a pitcher throws a perfect game then says it was humbling. I don't think people understand what it means. Please tell me i'm not the only person annoyed by this.

Groups sue to remove garbage trucks from Hudson Park
By Albert Amateau
Friends of Hudson River Park on Tuesday filed a lawsuit against the city to force the Department of Sanitation to stop construction of the garage it started to build on the Gansevoort Peninsula in January and to remove all Sanitation operations from the 7-acre landfill on the Village waterfront.
The suit charges that the Sanitation Departments continued use of the peninsula to park garbage trucks violates the 1998 Hudson River Park Act that created the 5-mile-long riverfront park being built from the Battery to 57th Sts.
The action also seeks to get the Sanitation Department off Pier 97 at 57th St. on the Clinton waterfront.
We understand the city has a tough row to hoe here because they have to find a place for the Department of Sanitation to do its work, said Daniel Alterman, attorney for the Friends, a community based groups that advocates for the park.
But the Park Act mandates that the city use its best efforts to get off the Gansevoort Peninsula and Pier 97 and decrease Sanitation uses on the piers. By beginning construction this year of a new garage on the peninsula, Sanitation is increasing rather than decreasing its presence. We had hoped the city would agree to stop construction and not build this garage but they havent, Alterman said.
In January, the city began construction of the two-story, 17,000-sq.-ft. garage, which Dan Klein, D.O.S. real estate director, described in February as temporary. But Klein acknowledged the garage would be used for seven years or more until the city finds an alternative site to park garbage trucks.
Kate OBrien Ahlers, spokesperson for the city Law Department, which represents the Department of Sanitation, said on Wed. April 27 that the city was evaluating the case but declined comment on the pending litigation.
Joining Friends of Hudson River Park as plaintiffs in the case are two community-based Clinton advocacy groups concerned about Pier 97 and several residents of the Village, Chelsea and Clinton who hope to use the peninsula and Pier 97 when they are included in the park.
The targets of the suit in addition to New York City and the Sanitation Department are New York State and the Hudson River Park Trust, the state/city agency building the park.
The suit declares that the city had failed to comply with the Park Act mandate to remove by Dec. 31, 2003, the derelict garbage incinerator and the pile of salt for melting winter ice on Manhattan streets that Sanitation stores on the peninsula.
The new structure the city is building on the peninsula is in an area that under the Park Act, was and is to be used solely for park purposes, the lawsuit says. Moreover, the city began to build without first securing a permit and without complying with the State Environmental Quality Review Act, the action says.
Friends of Hudson River Park also want the court to set a fixed schedule for the city to remove the Sanitation garage from Gansevoort. The suit also wants the court to set a reasonable rent or use and occupancy payment that the city must pay to the Hudson Park Trust for the continued illegal occupancy of Pier 97 and the adjoining land and roadway and of the majority of Gansevoort from Jan. 1, 2004, until such date as the illegal operations are removed.
Although the Hudson River Park Trust is one of the defendants in the suit, the action wants the court to award the Trust damages for the increased costs of creating the park that have been occasioned by the citys violation of the law.
The suit contends the plaintiffs are damaged by the continued Sanitation uses on the peninsula and by the new building being erected. People who use the current walkway/bikeway along the river inboard from the peninsula for recreation are being subjected to the continued ugly presence of the Sanitation garage and Sanitation trucks on Gansevoort, the suit says. Moreover, joggers, bikers and walkers are being subjected to increased truck traffic with added noise and air pollution, the suit says. In addition, construction of the park is being delayed where the Sanitation garage stands, the suit contends.
Among the individual plaintiffs are three Village residents Kathleen Keen Stassen Berger, a Greenwich Village Democratic district leader; Tobi Bergman, former vice chairperson of Community Board 2s Parks Committee; and Arthur Stoliar State Senator Tom Duane and former State Senator Leichter who co-wrote the Hudson River Park Act. The fact that Leichter is also a member of the Hudson River Park Trust board of directors was apparently no bar to joining a lawsuit that names the Trust as a plaintiff.
In another interesting twist, the suit pits the descendants of two prominent Republicans against each other: Theodore Roosevelt IV, great grandson of the former president and a member of the Trust board, and Berger, who despite her Democratic position is the daughter of Harold Stassen, former Minnesota governor who ran for the Republican presidential nomination nine times.

Catherine the Great
Dowager Empress of Russia
Artist Unknown, 18th Century
42" x 54" oil on canvas
This oil painting is a pastiche of an original portrait of the Russian Dowager Empress painted after she assumed the throne in 1762. It was common at the time for court artists to make copies of original portraits of monarchs for other royalty to display in their residences. On the back of the painting is an old label saying it had been in the collection of Prince Alexander Mikhailovitch Beloselsky (1752-1809). It was in all likelihood displayed in the grand and enormous Beloselsky-Belorzersky Palace on the Neva Prospeck in St. Petersburg, Russia, across from the imperial Anitchkov Palace.
Catherine the Great was Empress of Russia from 1762-1796. The Academy of Arts, reorganized in 1774 under Catherine II became the nursery of Russian artists. The Academy was a copy of that in Paris, even sending its professors to Paris to study. However, the majority of Russian artists of the period were peasants. At an early age, they were sent to study with a master, requiring them to work in the manner of the master. This is the reason so many fine portraits of the 18th century are attributed to unknown artists.
The entire 18th century constituted a period of following, on a grandiose scale, Renaissance styles from the early phases through the Baroque, the Rococo, and the Classical Revival. This imitation influenced Russian art especially in the field of literature, music and dance. Russia followed the same sequence of styles from the Baroque to the Classical Revival, as did the other countries of Europe.
This painting was presented to the College in June 1968. A generous grant from the Helen Jones Foundation allowed for restorative treatment to the painting in 2011.
Flemish Countryside
F. Van Paemel, 1780
80" x 92" oil on canvas
This is a Flemish painting that depicts a genre scene in the landscape, a subject highly appreciated and expressed among Dutch artists during the late 18th century. It presents a narrative of celebration and play in the lives of common people. The landscape is the kind that enjoyed great popularity because its elements were so familiar, from the distant city in atmospheric perspective to the fluidity of brush stroke expressing foreground detail.
The painting was originally displayed in Mrs. Post's Florida Mar-a-Lago Estate in the Pine Hall, along with four other paintings depicting similar genre scenes. The series of five paintings was purchased by Mrs. Post in the 1920s. This painting, the largest of the series, was given to the College in January 1966.
Birds in Landscape
Carl Jutz, 1860
68" x 52" oil on canvas
This oil painting portrays a serene landscape with colorful birds in the immediate foreground. Thelandscape terminates at the mountain range in the background. The detail given to the birds suggests a scientific illustration. However, this was typical of the style of Carl Jutz (1838-1916), a very fine German painter of still life and nature studies. In 1853, Jutz joined the studio of animal painter Augustus Knip in Baden-Baden, Germany. After Knip's death in 1861, he wanted to study at the Munich Art Academy, but he seems not to have been admitted. Therefore, he continued his training auto-didactically.
On his travels, Jutz came into contact with Dusseldorf painters and subsequently moved there to study at the academy. By 1865, his art was regularly exhibited in Dresden, Munich and Berlin. International recognition of Jutz's art came in the following decade where he received awards from expositions in Vienna (1879), Melbourne (1881) and New York (1902). His paintings have been reproduced by a number of art houses and are still popular for their careful individual studies of animals and pets.
The painting belonged to C.W. Post and was passed to his daughter, Marjorie M. Post. The painting was the first of three works that were loaned to the College in February 1965. It was later gifted to South Plains College in May 1973.
Through a generous grant from the Helen Jones Foundation, the Jutz painting received restorative treatment in 2015.
Bacchanalian Feast
Artist Unknown, 18th Century
114" x 70" oil on canvas
An excellent example of 18th century Italian genre art, this oil painting features the Roman god Bacchus in revelry with humans, satyrs and other mythical creatures. The painting was purchased by Marjorie M. Post's father, C.W. Post in 1912 at the famous Galleria Borghese sale in Rome. The Galleria Borghese dates back to Cardinal Scipione Borghese, nephew to Pope Paul V (1605), and a great collector of Italian sculpture and art.
This painting was presented to the College by Mrs. Post in January 1966.
Through a generous grant from The CH Foundation, the painting received restorative treatment in 2011.
Napoleon's Retreat from Russia
Joseph Emmanuel van den Bussche, ca. 1884
76" x 56" oil on canvas
Joseph Emmanuel van den Bussche was a painter of "genre" and history. He was born in Antwerp, Belgium, in 1837 and died in Boitsfort near Brussels in 1908. He was a professor in Brussels. Emperor Napoleon was a favorite subject of van den Bussche. Two other paintings – Napoleon's Battle at Waterloo and Laissez Passar L'Empereur – picture Napoleon in a historical context. Napoleon's retreat from Russia in 1812 was a major turning point in the Napoleonic Wars. The campaign reduced the French and allied invasion forces to a tiny fraction of their original strength.
There is evidence compiled by Paul Grimwood of Jerseyville, Ontario, Canada that the painting at one time hung in Senator William Eli Sanford's grand estate Wesanford in Hamilton, Ontario. The painting was sold in an estate auction in 1938 for the disappointing price of $80. It is unknown if Mrs. Post purchased the painting at this estate sale or later through an art dealer.
This historical painting was given to SPC in January 1966.
Granville, 2nd Earl of Gower
Sir Joshua Reynolds, P.R.A., ca. 1760
57" x 88" oil on canvas
The middle-aged nobleman is portrayed in full length, standing on a balcony. He is garbed in the robes of a Peer, a long, ermine-trimmed cloak partly concealing his tall, erect figure. The chain and pendant of St. George encircle his shoulders. In his right hand he holds a coronet, and with his left he lightly touches the ribbon that fastens his cloak at the neck. The immobility of his lean face tends to emphasize the keenness of his dark eyes, which are turned inquiringly upon the spectator. In the immediate background are a pillar and a draped crimson curtain, interrupting the more distant view of sky and tree tops.
The Earl portrayed in this painting is believed to be Granville Leveson-Gower, the son of John, first Earl of Gower. He was born August 4, 1721, and died October 26, 1803. From 1747 to 1764 he sat in Parliament as member from Westminister; and at various times was Lord Privy Seal, Lord Chamberlain and Lord President of the Council. He succeeded as second Earl of Gower in 1754 and was created Marquess of Stafford on March 1, 1786. He sat to Reynolds in 1760-1761.
Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792) was an English Painter in the Grand Manner, who was the foremost portraitist of his day. He was born in Plympton, Devonshire, on July 16, 1723, the son of a cleric. He learned portraiture from Thomas Hudson, the most fashionable painter at the time in London. After three years traveling in Italy, he returned to London, where he soon attracted notice by his portraits of prominent persons. He came to be the first English painter to achieve social recognition for his artistic achievements.
In 1764 Reynolds founded the Literary Club, which included essayist and critic Samuel Johnson, actor David Garrick, statesman Edmund Burke, writer Oliver Goldsmith, writer James Boswell, and dramatist Richard Brinsley Sheridan. When the Royal Academy of Arts was instituted in 1768, Reynolds was elected president and was knighted. In 1769, he delivered the first of his annual Discourses to the students of the academy in which he set forth the idealistic, moralizing principles of academic art. In 1784, he succeeded Allan Ramsay as painter to the king. In the same year he exhibited his portrait of the English actor Sarah Siddons as the Tragic Muse (1784, Huntington Art Gallery, San Marino, California), probably his greatest portrait.
Reynolds is credited with more than 2,000 portraits. Stylistically, he was influenced by Michelangelo and the Flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens. Reynold's portraits were distinguished by calm dignity, classical allusions, rich color, and realistic portrayal of character. His portraits form the epitome of London society of his day. He died in London in February 23, 1792.
This portrait was purchased by Marjorie M. Post at the Sale of the Blakslee Collection in New York in 1915 reportedly for $4,000.
Prior to it being loaned to SPC, the portrait was examined in 1962 by Eric Waterhouse of the Barber Institute of Fine Art, Birmingham University, England. Professor Waterhouse, at the time, was a leading authority on Reynolds and his portraits. While he substantiated that the portrait was indeed a product of Reynolds' studio, he was more inclined to identify the gentleman in the picture as James, 2nd Earl of Waldegrave (1715-1763). His identification was based on its comparison to other portraits of Granville Leveson-Gower, 2nd Earl of Gower, and those of Lord Waldegrave who may have sat for the portrait in 1760-1761.
At the time the painting was loaned to South Plains College in February 1965, it was said to be the only Sir Joshua Reynolds portrait on public display west of the Mississippi River. Mrs. Post officially gifted the painting to the College in May 1973.
Through a generous grant from The CH Foundation, the painting received restorative treatment in 2009.
Caroline, Queen of George II
Sir Godfrey Kneller, ca. 1716
52" x 86" oil on canvas
This full-length portrait represents Caroline of Brandenberg-Ansbach, who became Queen Consort of England in 1727. She is standing and facing the left, three-quarters front. She wears a blue gown trimmed over in ermine and satin. Her sleeves are short and draped with lace, and her low-necked bodice is adorned with jewels. Her right hand rests on the regalia on a table at her side.
Caroline (1683-1737) was the daughter of John Frederick, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach. Five years after her father's death in 1687, her mother married Elector John George IV of Saxony, and Caroline lived with her mother at Dresden. Left an orphan in 1696, the girl lived at Berlin with her guardians, Elector Frederick III of Brandenburg, and his wife, Sophia Charlotte, daughter of Electress Sophia. At the age of twenty-two she married George Augustus, Electoral Prince of Hanover, by whom she had eight children, the eldest being Frederick. When her father-in-law George I became King of England in 1714, she and her consort went to England and shortly thereafter were invested as Prince and Princess of Wales. Thirteen years later, in 1727, George Augustus ascended the throne as George II.
When Mrs. Post acquired the painting, the sales catalogue attributed the painting to [?] Allan Ramsay (1713-1784), who George III appointed Principal Painter to the king in 1767, long after Caroline died in 1737. However, when the painting underwent conservation treatment in 2009, two faded and deterioated labels were discovered on the stretcher, which attributed the painting to Sir Godfrey Kneller (1646-1723). Kneller was the leading portrait painter in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, and was court painter to Britist monarchs from Charles II to George I, a span of 43 years.
Kneller was born Gottfried Kniller in Lübeck, Germany. He studied in Leiden, but later became a pupil of Ferdinand Bol and Rembrandt in Amsterdam. After working in Rome, Venice and Hamburg, he came to England in 1674 at the invitation of the Duke of Monmouth. He was introduced to, and painted a portrait of, Charles II. Concentrating almost entirely on portraiture, he founded a studio which produced portraits on an almost industrial scale. His portraits set a pattern that was followed until Joshua Reynolds and William Hogarth. When Sir Peter Lely died in 1680, Kneller was appointed Principal Painter to the Crown by Charles II.
In the 1690s, Kneller painted the Hampton Court Beauties depicting the most glamorous ladies-in-waiting of the Royal Court for which he received his knighthood from William III. Created a baronet by King George I, he was also head of the Kneller Academy of Painting and Drawing from 1711-1716 in London. Kneller died of fever in 1723. There is a strong likelihood that this portrait of a young Caroline was painted sometime after she and George Augustus arrived in England as Prince and Princess of Wales.
This portrait was part of the Collection of the Duke of Fife, Duff House, Banffshire, Scotland and was exhibited in the Guelph Exhibition in the New Gallery, London in 1891.
The painting was loaned to the College from Marjorie M. Post's private collection in February 1965. It was gifted to the college in May 1973.
Through a generous grant from the Helen Jones Foundation, the Caroline portrait received restorative treatment in 2009. The conservation process revealed that the painting had received later painted additions to the background drapery and to the sitter, perhaps in an attempt by an auction house to make the painting more desirable for sale. These later additions were removed, revealing Caroline's classic features, as well as the original background.
The Sultan of Morocco on a Stallion
Charles Baskerville, Jr., ca. 1927
82" x 80" oil on canvas
The only 20th century artist represented in the collection, Charles Baskerville, Jr., was a prominent American portrait painter, illustrator, cartoonist, and muralist. Named after his father, he was born in 1896 in Raleigh, N.C. He later lived in Chapel Hill, N.C., where his father was a professor of chemistry at the University of North Carolina. The family came to New York City when the elder Baskerville founded the department of chemistry at the City University of New York.
The younger Baskerville intended to become an architect, but interrupted his college years at Cornell University to join the Rainbow Division in World War I. After the war, he returned to Cornell and began to pursue a career in art. Upon graduation, he came to New York and achieved immediate success with drawings published in the day's leading humor magazines. In 1925, he was recruited by The New Yorker magazine to illustrate a night club column, where he used the pseudonym Top Hat.
Those prominent individuals who sat for Baskerville included Jawaharlad Nehru, Bernad Baruch, William S. Paley, the Duchess of Windsor, Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon, Richard Rogers, and Helen Hayes. He trekked by pony and foot through the Himalayas to Katmandu to paint the King of Nepal.
During World War II, Baskerville was designated the official portrait painter of the Army Air Forces. As a lieutenant colonel, he traveled to the theaters of war to create more than 60 likenesses of officers and enlisted men that were exhibited widely and are on permanent exhibition at the Pentagon.
In his lifetime, he has had more than a dozen one-man shows in New York City and his work was exhibited at the National Gallery of Art and the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of Art in New York City, the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh and the Chicago Art Institute.
As a muralist, he painted for private residences as well the Wall Street Club, the conference room of the Joint Committee on Military Affairs of the Senate and House and for the main lounge and ballroom of the ocean liner America, once the largest of liners.
Baskerville was an acquaintance of Marjorie Post, and Mrs. Post built the ballroom of her Palm Beach, Florida, home, Mar-a-Lago, around his mural, The Sultan of Morocco on a Stallion. Further research has revealed that Baskerville painted and signed a "copy" of this original for Mrs. Post to replace his original at the time of her gift to the College.
The subject of the painting is believed to be Sultan Moulay Youssef, King of Morocco from 1912 until his death in 1927. Baskerville was well known for painting portraits of celebrities, suggesting that this painting is likely a true portrait and not an imaginary one.
The painting was added to the collection and donated to the College in March 1966.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Golden Eagles were within striking distance down the stretch but could not pull out a victory as they fell to Memphis, 6-1, in the second game of a three-game series. Memphis starting pitcher Ryan Fraser went the distance for the Tigers as the Golden Eagles pulled within one run in the eighth inning before falling by five at FedEx Park on Saturday afternoon.
Tech's record drops to 9-10 overall this season, while Memphis improves to 8-11.
Freshman Zephan Guyear hit his first career home run in the top of the eighth inning, cutting the Memphis lead to 2-1 late in the game. However, the Tigers tacked on four runs in the bottom of the inning to help propel them to a five-run victory.
Guyear finished 2-for-3 on the afternoon with a homer and a double, and was the only Golden Eagle with multiple hits.
Junior Seth Edwards also doubled for TTU and finished 1-for-4, while junior Chad Oberacker was 1-for-4 with a single and his first stolen base of the 2010 campaign. Junior Frankie Beech also had a hit for Tech, finishing 1-for-3 with a single.
Lee Henry (1-2) was charged with the loss despite allowing just two earned runs in five innings on the mound. Henry struck out seven and walked just one as he dropped his second decision of the season.
Ryan Hopkins and A.J. Kirby-Jones combined to pitch the final three innings for the Golden Eagles. Hopkins went two innings and allowed three runs, while Kirby-Jones allowed one run in one inning of work with two strikeouts.
For Memphis, Fraser improves to 2-0 this season on the mound.
The Golden Eagles will look to once again even their record on Sunday afternoon when they again take on Memphis. First pitch at FedEx Park is scheduled for 1 p.m.
