Someone Redesigned the NHL Logos As 'Game Of Thrones' Shields
The Stanley Cup Playoffs are in full swing, so Washington D.C.-based designer and Capitals fan, Rachel L. Cohen, recently decided to re-design all the NHL logos and turn them into Game of Thrones shields. Cohen is pretty thrilled with her work (we agree that she should be) saying of the shield designs, "Overall, I'm super freaking happy with the final piece. Hoping to get it possibly printed as a big poster soon! Maybe I'll do some banner for former teams like the Nordiques and the Whalers too???"

ZIMBABWE has banned the sale of second-hand underwear. A new law has made it illegal to import or sell used pants, according to a local newspaper.
It is now forbidden to import 'second-hand undergarments of any type form or description - whether purchased, donated or procured in any other manner.
The hand-me-down knicker ban was introduced by finance minister Tendai Biti, who said he was shocked to discover many Zimbabweans bought used underwear from flea markets or stalls.
"How does that happen? If you are a husband and you see your wife buying underwear from the flea market, you would have failed."
The privately-owned News Day newspaper reported that the practise was prohibited under a government clampdown which became effective on December 30.
Zimbabwe economic problems had forced many residents into purchasing second hand underwear from markets which have either been supplied with the second hand stock or the underwear has been donated from other developed countries around the world.
Under the new legislation the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority will now charge 40 percent duty and 15 percent VAT on all underwear imports and apply a US$3 penalty for every kilogram of pants entering the country.
Local media reported that this new ban is a positive move in the right direction as it will address the health concerns related to the wearing of second hand underwear.
However Zimbabwe is not the first African country to enforce a legislation to outlaw sale of used knickers. Ghana's government officially banned the practice in 1994 but started enforcing the law last year following concerns those wearing second hand pants risked infections.

Middlesex - Liberty
- Last year's record: 3-8
- Strength: Skill positions on offense; overall experience.
- Concerns: Overall depth, especially on the offensive line.
- Coach: John Dubzinski (3rd season, 6-16)
- Playing surface: Artificial turf
- Schedule: Complete list of games
It's been a turbulent first two seasons for Arlington head coach John Dubzinski, but things are looking up for the Spy Ponders. Unlike the last two seasons, the Spy Ponders will have a large, seasoned group of seniors who will take hold of the leadership roles on the team. The roster boasts 20 seniors with 18 returning starters, numbers Dubzinski hopes will pay dividends on both sides of the ball. Arlington returns nearly the entirety of its offense, including senior quarterback Seth Coiley, a Middlesex Liberty All-Star. After rushing for 700 yards and tallying eight touchdowns - passing and rushing - last fall, Coiley will rotate with junior Frank Roche under center, a move Dubzinski hopes will capitalize on the dynamic playmaking abilities of both players. Three-year starter Zach Thomas, a league All-Star at outside linebacker, could be in line to have a monster season at tight end. The only glaring hole is that left by outside linebacker Matt Garcia. Senior Marco Saenz-Grant will fill in the shoes for Garcia at linebacker, while junior defensive end Nick Rose and senior defensive back Andrew Cunningham continue to grow in their positions. Two-year captain Lucas Hanley will shore up the middle of the field at inside linebacker. "Every coach gives the old clich� that they just want to get better day by day." said Dubzinski. "When we met in the preseason, we had the kids write down their goals, and the majority of kids wanted a winning record and to make the playoffs, to improve on last year."
- Last year's record: 1-10
- Strength: Intelligent group of kids, very coachable.
- Concerns: Depth across the board.
- Coach: Kevin Gildea (9th season, 35-52)
- Playing surface: Artificial turf
- Schedule: Complete list of games
Belmont continues to face an uphill battle in a grueling Middlesex (Liberty) League, and it won't get much easier this season. With only 32 players making up this year's roster, coach Kevin Gildea and the Marauders can ill-afford any major injuries over the course of the season. But Belmont has reason to be excited by this year's group. According to Gildea, junior running back Max Jones (5-foot-8, 160 pounds) and senior running back J.D. Niles (5-foot-9, 175 pounds) could wreak havoc in an offense that is focused on the run. Under center, the quarterback job is a two-horse race between 6-foot junior Nick Call and a 5-foot-8, 165-pound freshman Cal Cristofori. On defense, the Marauders hope to improve on the 28.2 points per game they allowed last fall. "We continue to stress believing in each other," said Gildea. "Believe in each other, believe in the coaches, believe in what we've been doing. There's a lot of unity with this group, which has been nice."
- Last year's record: 4-7
- Strength: Young but athletic at the skill positions on offense.
- Concerns: Youth, especially along the offensive line.
- Coach: George Peterson (3rd season, 8-14)
- Playing surface: Grass
- Schedule: Complete list of games
In his first two seasons as Lexington's coach, George Peterson was lucky enough to have a roster full of experience; seniors who had played in a handful of contests, and bench players to match. This fall, Peterson will line up seven players on both side of the ball who have never played in a varsity game. Lexington was hit hardest up front, as the Minutemen return only one player on the offensive line, and must move on without offensive and defensive tackle Nick Nerolian (University of Albany). While the offensive line works to find its identity over the first few weeks of the season, sophomore Jeff Costello will line up behind the line's only returning starter, Rhett Adley. An "elusive, very accurate thrower," according to Peterson, Costello will replace last year's dual-threat starter in Xander Erickson (1,640 yards and 10 passing touchdowns; 159 rushes for 429 yards and seven touchdowns). Junior wideout Connor Murphy and running back Mike Fernandes should provide some pop in the Minuteman offense, but change won't come overnight. "We try to take things on a day to day basis and that's what we preach and focus on." said Peterson "We're focused on getting better every single day. Having to get through the mistakes and the learning curve of playing in a varsity game will be the biggest change for us."
- Last year's record: 13-0
- Strength: Experienced, explosive offense.
- Concerns: Holes in the defensive line.
- Coach: John Fiore (10th season, (76-28))
- Playing surface: Artificial turf
- Schedule: Complete list of games
If teams in Division 2 are hoping for a slower, softer Reading team in 2013, they might have to wait until next year. With a 13-0 season fondly in the rearview mirror, coach John Fiore and the Rockets return a plethora of talent from their Division 2 title run last fall, especially on offense. Senior Drew Belcher, the Division 2 Player of the Year, returns for an encore performance following a junior campaign in which he threw 1,700 yards and 21 touchdowns to complement his 800 yards and 15 scores on the ground. Belcher will miss two of his favorite targets in Ryan Maney (eight touchdowns) and Chris Godwin (five touchdowns), but tight end Robert DiLoreto will return for his senior year. Along with a stacked offense, the Rockets return many of the players that comprised the most prolific defense in the state (4.7 points per game allowed in 2012 was the lowest in EMass). Gone is All-State defensive lineman Matt Comerford and linemate Peter Fodera. Senior lineman Chris Polleys is sure to step up and fill one spot, with the other potentially going to 225-pound sophomore Sean Valente. Three-year starter Liam Kenneally is heading the linebacker position, the Rockets will continue to hit and hit hard. "I think that we have to try to find as much consistency as possible at everything were doing," said Fiore. "We can't compare last year to this year. We can only build off the things we do each year that resulted in success. How we're practicing and what we're doing in the offseason to get ready, the teamwork, the leadership the kids bring to the table, that's what we have to continue on with."
- Last year's record: 3-8
- Strength: New, promising weapons on offense.
- Concerns: Inexperience on both sides of the ball; team speed.
- Coach: Wally Dembowski (3rd season, (4-17))
- Playing surface: Artificial turf
- Schedule: Complete list of games
The first few games will be crucial for Winchester this year, as the Sachems return only three starters on offense and five on defense. New quarterback Michael Grassey (6-4, 220 pounds) will replace Tim Mangano (1,400 yards passing, eight touchdowns), and will stand tall as a pocket passer. Winchester will also have a new face at running back, as John Costello makes way for senior captain Dana Marrocco. Seniors John Dooley and Quinn Johnson will line up outside the numbers as new threats for the Sachems. With all the new faces comes the inevitable wait for unity and cohesion, and that includes the offensive line, which will have two new linemen this fall. Two players who spent a handful of time on the shelf last season, junior slot receiver Davis Clarke and senior lineman Tony Oquendo-Loftman, could prove to be strong additions to a single-back formation that looks poised to throw the ball and throw often. "Players are starting to understand who I am and what I expect and just how to act," said Dembowski. "There are less kids now questioning what we do because when they execute the scheme and do it the right way they realize this stuff works. There's that trust between coaches and players now."
- Last year's record: 5-5
- Strength: Young, skilled players on offense.
- Concerns: Loss of four league All-Stars on offense.
- Coach: Rocky Nelson (28th season, (180-105))
- Playing surface: Artificial turf
- Schedule: Complete list of games
With the new football playoffs in place, Woburn will have a tough time duplicating the late-season success they found last fall. After starting the season losing four of their first five by a combined score of 84-15, the Tanners nearly took down eventual Division 2 champion Reading, holding one of the state's most prolific offenses to 18 points. This fall, the Tanners are going to have to fill huge holes on both sides of the ball, but may just have the talent to do it. Woburn graduated running back Jared O'Brien, tight end David Pratt, and offensive linemen Rory O'Brien and AJ Santiago, all of whom were Middlesex All-Stars last fall. Senior Rob Vocci returns under center after earning his way into the starting role last fall. Voci, a mobile quarterback himself, will be flanked by a pair of up-and-coming running backs in juniors Marvin Jean and Chris Jewett. On defense, Chris Scichilone will help anchor the front seven, while Christian Cesvette will help man the secondary.
3 games to watch
Duxbury comes in with a 42-game regular-season winning streak, while Abington went 13-0 and won a Div. 4 Super Bowl last year.
This is Dorchester's first home game ever on the newly renovated Roberts Field. LA brings All-Scholastic QB Kyle Dance.
These two preseason Top 10 teams tied for first in the Bay State Herget last year. This game could well decide the title again.

Microsoft Build 2015 live blog
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is delivering a live keynote presentation from the Moscone Center in San Francisco, Calif. on Wednesday, where he will have to sell developers on the future of Windows.
3rd & 7 37yd
3rd & 7 37yd
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:14:58 PMMicrosoft is launching a Windows Store for Business, for professional-grade apps and services.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:15:10 PM"We know we need to get Windows 10 to get broadly adopted, quickly," Myerson says.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:15:57 PM"Within 2 to 3 years of Windows 10's release, there'll be 1 billion devices running Windows 10." Microsoft is nothing if not ambitious.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:16:31 PMThat's far more than Android and iOS, of course, because Microsoft is counting PCs as well as tablets, smartphones, Xbox One game consoles and more.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:17:53 PMMyerson is showing a USA Today universal app on Windows 10. The universal app is Microsoft's name for a program designed to run across every device because developers can write to a single code base, and then port them over to other devices easily.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:18:24 PM"One binary, one code base, all working across phone, tablet and PC." --Myerson
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:19:03 PMMyerson says it took USA Today developers just one hour to make their universal news app a video-only experience tailored for the Xbox One game console.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:20:10 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:21:24 PMMyerson teases a HoloLens announcement related to universal apps and says Alex Kipman, the father of the Kinect and the mastermind behind Windows Holographic, is due onstage in a little while.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:22:02 PMMyerson hits a few snags, but the crowd doesn't seem to mind.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:22:58 PMMyerson has four big Windows 10 announcements right now. Here they come.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:23:45 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:25:12 PMThe first announcement is the ability to turn web pages into applications. Windows 10 can identify whether a site's core functionality, like the music player 22Tracks, is running like an application, and move it over to the operating system.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:26:17 PMQuickly and easily turning dynamic web pages and assets into a Windows 10 app is huge -- provided it works. We saw a similar HTML-app push for Windows 8, but the Windows store remains a bit barren.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:28:07 PMMyerson Photoshop's Windows exec Joe Belfiore's hair onto Scott Guthrie's head, a master feat and an invaluable Photoshop skill.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:28:50 PMThis is huge. Myerson says Microsoft has found a way for developers to take Android Java/C++ code and move it over to Windows Phone.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:29:19 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:29:49 PMFor context, Android is the world's most popular mobile operating system, running on 77 percent of the world's devices. Windows Phone runs on 2.8 percent, according to IDC.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:30:07 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:31:27 PMThis "Android subsystem," as Microsoft is calling it, may be a much-needed breakthrough for the Windows Phone platform if re-using code is as easy as it sounds.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:32:46 PMThe fourth and final update: Objective C code support, which is the primary language for Apple's iOS platform.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:33:31 PMDevelopers can use Visual Studio Code, announced earlier this morning for Mac, to re-use iOS code compiled in Xcode for Windows Phone.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:34:19 PM"... to incorporate all of the weirdness of Object C," Myerson says to raucous developer applause.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:35:31 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:35:34 PMMyerson just ported over an educational iOS app in real-time to a Windows Phone code editor and gets an Xbox Live achievement notification on a Windows PC for solving the math problem. That's a lot of tubes working together.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:36:37 PM"Four is not enough so there's actually one more thing we're going to do," Myerson says. It's the hardware giveaway reveal.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:36:58 PMBeing able to essentially import iOS apps into Windows is potentially huge for Microsoft -- Candy Crush Saga was apparently imported to Windows Phone using these tools rather quickly.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:37:04 PMMicrosoft is giving everyone here a HP Spectre x360 two-in-one device.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:37:57 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:38:42 PMMicrosoft isn't done yet folks. Joe Belfiore, Microsoft's corporate VP of the operating systems group, is onstage now to go through new Windows 10 features.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:38:52 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:39:20 PMBelfiore shows the new Start menu: "what you see here is pretty close" to what it's going to look like when it's done.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:40:07 PMWoooo Windows 7's Aero Glass is back (sort of). Translucency makes me unreasonably excited.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:40:37 PM
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:43:30 PMComing soon to Windows 10: A new function dubbed Windows Spotlight gives your lockscreen a dynamic, regularly updated background, with personalized information and fancy wallpaper images. You can interact with elements too -- it looks a lot like Bing, actually.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:44:10 PMSpotlight is optional, which is great.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:44:43 PMSpotlight will identify apps and features you haven't used yet, like the Surface stylus, and offer up a lockscreen advertisement of sorts for an app, like Fresh Paint, to get you to try it out.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:45:33 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:45:48 PMRoughly 15 minutes left in the keynote and we don't have anything yet on Project Spartan, the replacement for Internet Explorer, or a release date for Win10.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:47:00 PMFor the uninitiated, definitely check out my first thoughts on Project Spartan.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:47:37 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:47:44 PMBelfiore just used Cortana to launch the third-party communication app Viber.
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:48:09 PMCortana can execute commands in apps as well, Belfiore says. "Tell Terry Myerson I'm running really late using Viber." The command works with Cortana without a hiccup, save for the "yes" confirmation at the end.
Nate Ralph 4/29/2015 5:48:27 PM
Nick Statt 4/29/2015 5:48:53 PMAh, Project Spartan. Here it is.

e-book 'Verification of 'Comfort Women' Issue' on sale
The Japan News has published an e-book titled "Verification of 'Comfort Women' Issue: How were the historic facts distorted?," which examines how false information was distributed regarding the so-called comfort women issue.
Since The Asahi Shimbun retracted some of its reports on comfort women in August on the grounds that they were based on false statements by the late Seiji Yoshida, there have been sweeping debates on the issue. This e-book is a compilation of translations from The Yomiuri Shimbun's verification articles on the matter and aims to serve as the basis for calm and objective discussions on the subject in the world.
This e-book also contains English translations of key government documents, such as the Kono statement released in 1993 to express the government's position on the comfort women issue, and "details of exchange between Japan and South Korea regarding the comfort women issue."
"Verification of 'Comfort Women' Issue: How were the historic facts distorted?" is available as a Kindle format e-book that can be purchased for $4.98 or the equivalent at amazon.co.jp or amazon.com.

The Forest ravines are located in the wilderness between Vergen and the Kaedweni camp, in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. Geralt visits this place in Chapter II during Where is Triss Merigold? quest, when he need to talk with a troll which lives there.
Points of interest Edit
Journal entry Edit
- Wooded gullies scarred the land between Vergen and King Henselt's camp. Innumerable monsters, including trolls, inhabited these ravines, so they were not exactly ideal places to picnic. But a traveler following the gullies would be relatively hidden from prying eyes, a fact which – as you will learn – Geralt took full advantage of.

It's called the American Dream,because you have to be asleep to believe it.
George Carlin ~ The American Dream – YouTube.
The 15-year-old act, known as DOMA, defines marriage – for federal tax, Social Security and other purposes – as only a union between a man and a woman. In February, the Obama administration announced it would no longer defend the constitutionality of the act.
For $520 an hour, paid with taxpayer funds appropriated from their congressional budget, House Republicans hired Clement – and King & Spalding – to continue the appeal of a decision by a federal judge in Massachusetts, who struck down the act last summer.
King & Spalding to withdraw from defending DOMA; Clement resigns | ajc.com. (emphasis mine)
Sounds like a great use of the money. I'm glad to see that they're not letting their commitment to fiscal responsibility get in the way.

Children across the country have smashed a reading target set by a Newbury charity to get more young people interested in books.
Achievement for All, based in Oxford Street, staged the Ten Million Minutes Reading Challenge, in which 447 schools across the UK took part.
It tasked pupils with reading for a combined 10 million minutes across the space of a week in a bid to help boost children's literacy levels.
And that target was easily surpassed as the final total for minutes read was an incredible 15,995,407.
Sonia Blandford, founder and CEO of Achievement for All, said: "Ten Million Minutes is designed to be a fun and engaging challenge to inspire children to read through a competitive element.
"It's heart-warming to hear all the wonderful tales from the schools following the challenge and the difference is already making to children who were struggling to read.
"Research shows that reading for just 10 minutes a day can have a huge impact on a child's progress.
"We are delighted that the children didn't just smash our 10-million-minute target, they excelled it."
Five schools from the Newbury area were among the 447 who took part.

None of the seven new senators named by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday are from B.C. — and that may be due in part to political posturing from Premier Christy Clark, says one expert.
Last December, Clark denounced Trudeau's plans for a more independent senate. She took particular issue with the fact that, despite Trudeau's assurances of nonpartisanship, the senators are still appointed rather than elected.
Hamish Telford, a professor of political science at the University of the Fraser Valley, said this can be read as a show of solidarity to her federal allies.
"A lot of Christy Clark's [BC] Liberal supporters on the federal scene are [federal] Conservative supporters, and prior to that, supporters of the Reform Party, which had long advocated for an elected senate," Telford told CBC Early Edition host Rick Cluff.
"[She's saying,] 'Look, it's not my plan, I'm not associated with it, don't tar me with it' — signaling to her supporters that she is on their side when it comes to senate reform."
A 'last-ditch' reform effort
The appointments are the first to use Trudeau's new merit-based approach to senator appointment. Though appointed by the Liberal government, on paper, the new senators all sit independently.
Telford described the changes as a "last-ditch kind of effort" at senate reform — something on which many of Trudeau's predecessors have struggled to make significant progress.
"There's a very tall order here," Telford said, noting that electing senators or abolishing the Senate altogether would require major constitutional amendment.
"The Senate has long had a legitimacy problem in Canadian politics, really almost going back to confederation."
Though B.C. is the third largest province by population, it only has six seats in the 105-seat Senate. One of those seats is currently vacant.
Telford expects that vacancy to be filled eventually, but said the appointment process will be difficult without the participation of the provincial government.
"That person [whom they eventually appoint] is going to suffer perhaps an additional legitimacy problem to overcome," Telford said.

Thread: Stupid Simple Scissors Sweep
9/25/2006 11:59am, #11
Grip at the elbows. Makes pefect sense. I use this sweep all the time in my A, B, C, sweep progresson. I never think to grab at the elbows. But is makes perfect sense. As with almost everything in BJJ technique, its the little things that matter most.

One thing that I see you doing that I do differently:
Instead of placing your knee accross his belly I like to have it (and have been taught recently to have it) at about a 30-45 degree angle so that it's harder for him to mega-crush you. Especially with bigger guys this makes a difference.
Great post though, keep up the good work!
EDIT: Just to clarify--I'm not saying there is a "right" way, just that this way works better for me.Originally Posted by Osiris

The basic scissor sweep is the only sweep I can pull off consistantly in nogi so this tutorial will help a lot. Thanks a lot.

Everyone should feel free to slobber on Aesopian's e-balls. This is probably the best sub-forum on Bullshido.

Dang...that's the first sweep that I ever learned, it's my favorite, specially because I get pretty much everyone with it, from white to blues, and it allows me to set up other stuff when it fails. Used it as a set up to win my FIRST TOURNAMENT, FIRST PLACE OVER 90KG, AHAMMM...(tooting my own horn)

Good breakdown of the technique.

I spent the winter painting ceramic pieces with the help of the talented Jill Curtis.
Four Big Birds
Last May I participated in a class with Julia Talcott at the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Watertown. In this class we carved 24″ X 36″ linoleum blocks and created big black and white prints. We printed the blocks using a steamroller.
Over the last few months I worked on additional linoleum block prints and now I have a series of four prints completed. I worked at MIXIT Studio in Somerville during the summer to print the four pieces in editions of ten. The prints are inspired by the Hokusai show I saw recently at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the work of John James Audubon.
Haystack, How Do I Blog Thee?
I had not been to Haystack in over 35 years. I was there three times as a young emerging artist, twice in ceramic classes and once as a teaching assistant in printmaking. This place is as beautiful and inspiring as ever. Even more so than it was for me in my twenties. To have two peaceful weeks in a studio filled with artists of all ages and backgrounds to pursue some new directions in Japanese woodblock printing with our teacher Takuji Hamanaka made me delirious with the possibilities. I was in the studio until midnight most nights. Haystack thoughtfully brings together passionate teachers and a delightful mix of artists/makers/craftspersons/game changers.
The buildings are perfectly designed by Edward Larabee Barnes for working and for resting (mostly working). Haystack is designed to nurture creativity and to encourage questioning and to respect and revere the search for meaning. I was touched that the campus has been so lovingly rebuilt over and over and it was still there for me when I was ready to go back there this summer. So much was the same. The sense of community, the great food, the conversations between the generations, the freezing dips in the ocean, the auction where so much generosity was put forth to raise money for scholarships. Below are a few views of the thousands of worn shingles that cover the buildings at Haystack.
The Bluefish is Back
This mural spent the winter being re-painted in my studio in the South End of Boston and now it has been re-installed in its proper place at 237 Hampshire Street, Cambridge, MA. Thank you to George Hagerty and Justin Bothwell of US Art for their hard work moving the mural and getting it back up on the building.
This project was directed by Rika Smith McNally, the director of the art conservation program at the Cambridge Arts Council. I am grateful for her energy and guidance about using the proper materials for an exterior mural. It even has UV protection now, so no sunburns!
Please join me for a party on Wednesday June 24, 2015 to celebrate and rededicate the mural. We will convene right under the mural from 5 to 7 for some live jazz by saxophonist Charlie Kohlhase, food from the East Coast Grill, and good company!
Big Print Day, International Style
Since 2007, the Monterey Peninsula College printmakers have devoted the first Saturday in May to printmaking. What began in the Monterey Bay Area of California has become a worldwide event, with printmakers participating from over a dozen countries, on five continents. We didn't even know this as we planned to print fifteen large (24″ X 36″) linoleum blocks at the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Watertown, MA on May 2nd, 2015. A class taught by Julia Talcott was culminating in a Big Print Day where we were using a steamroller as a printing press. And we were accidentally part of an international day devoted to printmaking! My two prints were designed as an homage to Audubon's large-scale bird paintings. One is a wading bird and the other is a flying bird where the wingspan fills the three-foot length of the linoleum block. The backgrounds of the two prints are filled with swirls and patterns and circles and stars and comets.
Fifteen artists worked together rolling out ink and wrangling huge sheets of paper and cleaning all of the blocks and rollers over and over throughout the day. All thirty prints that we made on May 2nd were big and bold and black and white.
We also printed a Charles River Alphabet organized by Leslie Evans, with 26 artists participating. We each chose a letter and created an image of something associated with the Charles River.
The individual prints from the alphabet are available for $30 each at the shop at the Arsenal Center for the Arts.
Mosaics Can Change the World
Having recently spent five days at the American Mosaic Summit in Philadelphia, sponsored by the Society of American Mosaic Artists, my head is buzzing with thoughts about all of the presentations and workshops. I heard from Carrie Reichardt, who works against capital punishment through craftivist mosaic sculptures. I enjoyed the talk by Isaiah Zagar where he told us about the history of the Magic Gardens, which now cover several city blocks in Philadelphia and sometimes attract over 600 visitors in a day.
The morning after I arrived, I participated in one of the day-long tours that the Mosaic Society of Philadelphia had organized. My tour was led by Philadelphia artist and teacher Robyn Miller. We stopped at congregation Rodeph Shalom to look at the mosaics on the main street entrance of the building.
We ran into a congregant, David Shapiro, who was walking to work and he arranged for us to gain entrance to the building to see additional mosaics inside as well as a lushly painted and stenciled interior.
Our next stop was the Glencairn Museum outside of the city in Bryn Athyn. The interior was filled with mosaics which had been made on site in a glassblowing studio. The artisans were hired by Raymond Pitcairn, an exacting man who built this castle for his family. The glassblowers were tasked with finding formulas that would look like the tiles used in the middle ages. Through extensive testing they determined that over-firing the glass would give the tiles a stone-like appearance. This museum was a testament to the handmade: every inch was well crafted, whether it was stone, glass, wood or woven textiles.
Next we went to The Village of Arts and Humanities in north Philadelphia that was started years ago by painter Lily Yeh. She went to this neighborhood to create a public art mural and she became permanently connected with the people she met there. She started working with people who were strung out on drugs or recently incarcerated and she helped them to see different paths. We were very lucky to have Lily herself show us around the garden. Neighborhood people were coming out of every door to greet her and hug her. She has helped save lives and has established a children's art center where clay pieces are made that are used in fabricating sculptures and walls and memorials throughout several city blocks in this destitute part of the city of Philadelphia. The children now have a place to go after school, and many of Lily's helpers have become employed in the arts.
This installation is much like Isaiah Zagar's Magic Gardens which also grew up in an abandoned city lot in Philadelphia. Things are made out of what can be found and with materials that often don't last. Mosaics fall apart as quickly as they can be built, but the Village of Arts and Humanities is tended and loved by the community. Walls need to be buttressed because the buildings behind the mosaic murals are crumbling. Sculpted chairs need to be re-tiled and re-grouted periodically, but now there is a small staff that tends to these things. This is life-changing, life-saving art in action. Each corner is a little rough around the edges, but the artworks are all special to the community. Lily Yeh embodies the idea of art that helps people and communities put the pieces back together.
Going Swimmingly
The restoration of the mural, The Bluefish is Good Tonight, is going really well. With the help of a bunch of wonderful assistants it is moving along quickly. As soon as it stops snowing the painting will be put back up at 237 Hampshire Street in Inman Square where it belongs!
It was interesting to re-work a project that I did so many years ago. My color sense has changed, and I think the new color choices will be easier to read from a distance. I had more confidence painting it this time, which made it a lot of fun. I removed a few details and worked with bolder shapes this time around.
I am very grateful to Rika Smith McNally, the director of the art conservation program at the Cambridge Arts Council, for her energy and guidance on this project. She assures me that the painting will be looking good for several more decades!

It def has different connotations with all cultures.. but even if stereotypically religious; the idea of the groom sharing his riches both emotionally and materialistically ..has a meaning...well that is shown with gesture. In many cultures, sharing what abundance be it financially or even spiritually is def essential. The coins represent the idea that my fiance is sharing all that he has to offer symbolically in the coins themselves to me, be it the now, the past and whats to come.. he is def not religious.. I am on the other hand lol... but all the same... the simple and humble idea of sharing the coins represent the trust and faith you have in the other party to hold in their hand your future as well as theirs..forever..as one... : )

Aura Colors and Their Meanings
Knowledge of aura color meanings can prove to be a vital method of determining a given emotion, intellectual status, or even physical level within ourselves and t hose around us.
Although identifying auras in others is a great interpretive tool, I tend to give more weighty focus on aura-introspection. Meaning, honing in on our own personal auras...what they are emanating at any given time, what that auric meaning proposes in the grand scheme of our emotions, bodies, and lives. Further, when we pay more attention to our own auras, we can work with our inner energies and enhance or balance these subtle levels of output. Working with our auras, and augmenting certain frequencies is often referred to as aura projection.
The process of aura projection is to purposefully enhance a specific color within our aura and expressing the energy of that color outwardly, for beneficial purposes/outcomes.
Why would we want to do such a thing?
So which colors do we choose in order to reap the desired effect in our aura projection? Simple. We choose the color that most accurately answers our needs and meets the needs of our environment (even the people around us who may need healing/comfort). To do this, it's fair to say we need at least a guide on aura color meanings. To fit that bill, I've provided a very basic summary of aura colors and corresponding aura color meanings below. Don't stop here though, do some research on your own. Be sure you have satisfied all your loose ends and questions before you engage in aura projection. The more informed you are, the better your results within, and without. :) Also, I'm providing the basic color spectrum for explanations. You may experience other colors, or a mixture in your aura practices. If this is the case, get a clear understanding of aura color meanings your experiencing.
|Red: Red stimulates the roots of our desires and passions. It can be an incredibly bolstering color too. Red will invigorate and boost our bodies into action. Use red in aura color projection when you need to screw your courage to the sticking place. When you need confidence, physical strength...when you need to feel power, or if you need to reconnect with your survival instincts. A subdued, less intense red in your aura will also enhance your romantic relations.
|Orange: Emit soft waves of orange throughout your aura when you want a boost of creative inspiration and energy. Orange is the embodiment of warmth, inclusion, clarity, creativity and rejuvenation. Focusing on the color orange during aura projection practices will give you a radiating quality - much like the sun radiates energy. If you're feeling puckish, bored or uninspired, orange is the perfect color to turn your doldrums into enthusiasm.
|Yellow: Yellow is a set-point for divine light, and when we infuse our auras with this color we are raising our energetic vibrations to angelic levels. This is the color to choose if you've been consumed with distractions, confusions, or distorted perceptions. Why? Because yellow is the prime root of clarity. Yellow will help you re-focus, sharpen your intellect, clarify your perception and get truthful insight into whatever kind of mysteries you've been dealing with.
|Green: See streams of vital green flowing out from your aura when you are in need of rebirth, renewal and healing. Green is the universal color of growth and rejuvenation. Just take a look at your outer landscape during the spring and summer months. The cacophony of green in Nature is a testimony to abundance and healthy evolution. Green can also stimulate your financial energies too. Project green in your aura for health, wealth and natural protection.
|Blue: Blue will tranquilize you into calmer levels of being. When you're all in knots and unable to relax, sit quietly and imagine soft layers of blue wafting beautifully through your aura. Intensify the color blue according to your impulse. Blue enhances psychic ability, helps with dream interpretation, stimulates intuition so if you are wanting to augment these facets of your understanding, project soft blue energies from your aura. Blue will also help sooth tempestuous emotions as it has a lovely calming effect.
|Indigo: Indigo is to be used with reverence during deep periods of reflection and contemplation. When we need to dive deeply into our inner selves and pierce the soul for intense knowing, indigo will protect us with its magic during these spirit journeys. It's a color if incalculable depth. We can submerge our spirits and walk the etheric worlds and our indigo aura will protect our bodies while astral traveling.
|Violet: You just can't go wrong when projecting violet in your aura. It's similar to yellow in that the color embodies angelic energies. Violet expresses childlike love, innocence, purity, and a sweet kindness that is equivalent to unconditional divine love. Soak yourself in violet radiance and see your aura scintillate with the gentle cleansing properties of this color. Projecting violet in your aura will grant you contentment as well as attract tenderness into your life.
I hope you have enjoyed these suggestions on aura color meanings, and I further hope your work with aura-boosting will be utterly propitious! :)

An Important Note About Signs, Symbols and Their Meanings
Signs and symbols cultivate their meanings according to culture, context, passage of time in society as well as mass societal opinion. What's cool and highly important is that signs and symbols earn their most powerful meanings from our own personal perspectives.
This website strives to provide you with the best, time-honored information when defining signs and symbols. However, in the final analysis, "Beauty (and symbolism) is in the eye of the beholder."
Having said that, it's in our best interest to invest the time to do personal research on symbolic events happening to us. This website is just one perspective in an ocean of variety and diversity in the realm of symbolism. So dive in! There is a whole universe of deeper meanings to explore! You can start your research by clicking on the links at the end or to the side of this page. Odds are good I've got a follow-up article about this symbolic topic. ;)
As always, thanks for your willingness to learn more about the language of symbolism. It's a language that is universal and everywhere. It's super-groovy to travel with you on your symbolic path, and maybe offer a little translation along the way. Thanks for reading and exploring!

If the 49ers' receivers were a family, they'd fall nicely into the "functional" category. Certainly, Michael Crabtree's sometimes strange behavior and comments can give one pause, but the rest of the group comes off as earnest, hard-working and yes, normal.
This despite being thrust into an awkward circumstance during the lockout. Not only are the receivers competing against each other, but they really don't know what positions they'll be playing. "You can assume that Crab and Josh (Morgan) will the be the X (wide receiver) and Z (flanker)," second-year player Kyle Williams said. "But for the rest of the guys, you are going to be plugged in wherever."
Rookie Ronald Johnson, Williams and free agent Kevin Jurovich are learning all the positions in Jim Harbaugh's offense. They're also regulars at San Jose State, where a contingent of hard-cores are working out daily during the lockout.
Crabtree, the team's former top-round pick from 2009, figures to make the team, as does Morgan. Speedster Ted Ginn Jr. might also be difficult to cut. It means that the aforementioned three and veteran Dominique Zeigler will be in a free-for-all for the remaining two or three spots. Even with the dire competition, the receivers help each other learn the playbook.
"Everybody has confidence in their own abilities, so there's not necessarily a doggy-dog (mentality) amongst the receiving corps," said Jurovich, the former San Jose State alum. "We are going to grow as players and leave the decisions up to the coaches."
The desire to make the team as receivers soared after the receivers got a peek into the Harbaugh playbook, which is stocked with plenty of receiver-friendly formations. Williams said an abundance of formations feature three receivers to one side and one receiver on the other. That opens up opportunities for smaller, quicker players – such as Jurovich and Williams – to operate in the slot.
But what does that mean for the traditional flanker and wide receiver, in other words, for Crabtree and Morgan? Could they see fewer passes?
Morgan doesn't think so. In fact, he likes the formation variation.
"You can't just focus on me and Crabtree," Morgan said with multi-receiver sets. "You can't just focus on (tight end) Vernon (Davis) neither. It will make you be honest as a defense. It will make you play us straight up."
Interestingly, Jurovich, Zeigler, Johnson and Williams all have college backgrounds in west coast schemes, unlike Morgan and Crabtree, which could allow the backups to be further along than the starters. They also have an all-for-one, one-for-all attitude that could serve them far beyond their training-camp competition.
"We root each other on. We know it's about more than just football," Williams said. "Why not? I don't look at guys that I'm really friends with and think, 'I hope they mess up so I can go in.' It doesn't even feel right saying it."

Oak Wood Arms Hotel Shannon Reviews

Jul 21, 2007
Please look for another hotel if you are thinking about staying here! We had to have our room switched 2 times. The first room looked like the mattress came from a second-hand store, then window fell off the hinge when it was opened, and when we reported the problems we were told "Yeah, we know that" and no one fixed anything.
Our second room couldn't even be accessed. Sure, the room key made the lock turn green but the door wouldn't open.
The last room had mold in the shower, the shower itself only had a trickle of water, and the room smelled awful. Needless to say, we will never be staying there again and urge everyone else to look for a better hotel.

Stayed here, after coming in from a flight from Boston to Shannon airport. That was the only reason I stayed in Shannon, as was tired from the flight.
They have a good restaurant and everything is pretty much average, nothing outstanding.
Shannon's not a place to linger.

Date: 5/30/96 at 14:38:30 From: Doctor Darrin Subject: Re: Archimedes' method of estimating pi - ? Archimedes knew that the area of a circle was pi * r^2. He estimated the value of pi by estimating the area of a circle with radius 1 (and area pi). To do this, he would calculate the area of a regular polygon inscribed in the circle. Since the polygon would be entirely contained in the circle, it would have an area less than the area of the circle. For instance, if we inscribed a regular hexagon in a circle of radius 1, we could divide the hexagon into 6 equilateral triangles, each having sides of length one. The area of the triangles would then be about .433, so the area of the hexagon is 6*.433=2.60. Thus, we see that pi is greater than 2.6. If we circumscribe a hexagon around a circle, then we can divide it into six equilateral triangles each having area .577, so the hexagon has area 3.46. Since the circle is inside the hexagon, it has area less than 3.46, so we see that pi is less than 3.46. Archimedes did much better than this - he used regular polygons with 96 sides, and found that pi is between 3+(10/71) and 3+(1/7). I hope this helps. -Doctor Darrin, The Math Forum Check out our web site! http://mathforum.org/dr.math/

Kenney Chesney
The singer insists he has stuck to the same routine for the last three-and-a-half years.
explains, "I eat egg whites, a piece of wheat toast and maybe a sliced
tomato, I go work-out, and when I get back I drink a protein shake.
"About three hours later I eat a piece of chicken and some carrots.
Then, late at night, if I'm hungry, I will eat another protein shake, but one with no carbs in it."
But, aside from working out and sticking to a regular diet, Chesney credits Bikram yoga for giving his life "balance."
adds, "I do it in a real hot room where it's about 110 degrees. It has
taught me a lot about balance, and that's something I look for in my

Levelland halts PHS' winning streak
Published 7:00 pm, Monday, September 14, 2009
LEVELLAND - The
Plainview Bulldog tennis team's two-game winning streak was halted
Tuesday as Plainview fell to Levelland, 11-8.
Plainview head
coach Matt Boedeker didn't want to make excuses, but injuries on
the usually dominate girls' team hindered Plainview's
"We have four
girls now that have injuries and are not playing," Boedeker said. "
It is very hard to compete with good varsity teams when you are
using very young JV players. All in all, we have a girl that had
toe surgery, one that has a cartilage injury in a knee, one with a
severely twisted ankle and one with a broken toe. That is four of
our top-eight girls that did not compete yesterday. It is
frustrating, but then you take a step back and realize how young
the JV girls are, and realize that they are doing very well for the
task that was forced upon them."
The Bulldogs had
another rough day, but Boedeker says he see improvement coming in
the form of some extra help.
"We are getting
the addition of a new boy to the team this week which will
strengthen the depth of our boys doubles and singles line-ups,"
Boedeker said.
PHS' next match
will be against Snyder at 10 a.m. Snyder. Boedeker hopes two of the
four injured girls players will be back by then.
The junior high
also competed yesterday. They played Snyder and lost 16-14. It
looked to be a very competitive match, and I am very proud of the
hard work and improvement of these youngsters. Snyder starts tennis
in 6th grade and many of ours started tennis two weeks ago. This is
a good result if you take that experience inadequacy in to account.
The junior high plays again next Thursday @ Hereford.

DOWNEY - New author Melissa Buell announced her new series "Tales of Gymandrol" to students at West Middle School on Oct. 17.Melissa was born and raised in La Mirada and now resides in Fullerton with her husband and two sons, Calvin, age 9, and Wyatt, age 5. She has been married for 11 years, and works as a high school English substitute teacher. Since her children are still young, she would rather be a substitute than a permanent teacher. While in college, she majored in English because she discovered she could write novels like some of her high school teachers. Not for herself though, she wanted to write a series that her sister (who was 15 at the time) would enjoy. And that's how her first young adult novel, "The Seventh Blessing," came to be. In the first book of this series, we meet Samantha, who is not just any ordinary girl: she's a young princess who has been blessed by fairies. But instead of getting blessed with dancing, she gets blessed with languages, swordsmanship and other "boy" qualities. She figures out all blessings but one, the seventh blessing. As usual, she gets in trouble and is forced to travel around with other princesses and princes in the royal circuit. Little does everyone know, she's the knight defeating all the other princes. She's risking everything to help one family make it through the week. The people who know the truth about her blessings have been sworn to secrecy... anything to protect the princess, the poor, poor princess... not! If you'd like to know more about little Samantha's troubles, please buy Melissa's newest trilogy. Back to the author; naturally she loves to read. When Melissa was younger she loved to borrow books from her local library and read for hours on end. She also wrote book reports for fun; that's what folks in the modern world of today would call dedication. She also loves to go camping, do arts and crafts, and watch Disney movies with her two little readers at home. Since she's a normal human being, she'd had doubts about writing, but loves the fact that her fans are - and will always be - behind her 100 percent of the way, proving her fears wrong. One thing you should always do when reading her books, she says, is to always, no matter what, "Root for the good guys; never the bad guy!" Melissa gladly came to West because of our Author Day Program. This special Author Day presentation was arranged by West Middle School's librarian Julia Desalernos. Mrs. Desalernos is deeply committed to bringing a variety of talented published children authors to West to inspire all students to read more and utilize their creative writing skills. While at West, 1,000 enthusiastic students sat through Melissa's assemblies and were enchanted when she read from her novel. She informed the students of how she conceived her story ideas. On a funny note, she shared with the audiences many memories of her youth, like how she couldn't climb fences, and how much she doubted her writing abilities, only to be proved wrong.

The Syria Files
Thursday 5 July 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing the Syria Files – more than two million emails from Syrian political figures, ministries and associated companies, dating from August 2006 to March 2012. This extraordinary data set derives from 680 Syria-related entities or domain names, including those of the Ministries of Presidential Affairs, Foreign Affairs, Finance, Information, Transport and Culture. At this time Syria is undergoing a violent internal conflict that has killed between 6,000 and 15,000 people in the last 18 months. The Syria Files shine a light on the inner workings of the Syrian government and economy, but they also reveal how the West and Western companies say one thing and do another.

Son Of Man Debate
Full Product Description
The expression 'Son of Man', used in the Gospels almost exclusively by Jesus, has been the object of intensive study since the Protestant Reformation, yet scholars have come to no agreement on its origin or meaning. Research in this area has been described as 'a veritable mine field' and 'a can of worms'. Because of the scope and complexity of the literature, no comprehensive survey of the subject has been written in the twentieth century. Delbert Burkett's book fills this need. It provides a comprehensive historical overview of the debate from the patristic period to 1996, and gives an evaluation of that research and a summation of the present state of the question. Burkett concludes that despite nineteen centuries of 'Son of Man' study there is no consensus concerning the meaning or origin of the expression; the debate is therefore a prime example of the limits of New Testament scholarship.
Son Of Man Debate by Delbert Burkett was published by Cambridge University Press in July 2007 and is our 61769th best seller. The ISBN for Son Of Man Debate is 9780521037457.

HE STOOD TALL. Six feet plus. He walked tall, as if busy with lofty things. He lived tall. Above daily trifles. Finally, on January 24, 1997, at the age of 58, he succumbed. And he was lowered into a grave. In the process, Goa — nay, India — was bereft of some 'tallness'. For Lourdino Barreto towered above the rest. Particularly, in the arena which brought him so much acclaim: western music.
"What good can come from Galgibaga, a forgotten, woody hamlet in South Goa," a city-bred Panjimite might ask. The answer is Lourdino Barreto. Without any noteworthy musical traditions in his ancestry, Barreto rose like a royal lotus blossoming in marshy waters.
This Galgibaga lad soon became a familiar sight in the corridors and auditoriums of the Pontifical Institute for Sacred Music and the National Conservatoire in Rome, in the late 'sixties. Having graduated with distinction in Gregorian Chant, Piano and Composition, he defended his doctoral thesis (titled 'Aesthetic Indian Music as a bridge between Christian and Indian Religious Music') with such aplomb that his guide, Prof Giuseppe Cianfriglia, coaxed him to top his brilliant academic career with a further two-year course of Virtuoso.
But Lourdino, the priest, turned down the invitation, as he considered that to be of little practical use to his priestly ministry after he would return to Goa.
His works, some of them based on Indian 'Ragas', have been performed by various orchestras and musical ensembles in cities like Rome, Lisbon, Baltimore, Buenos Aires, to mention but a few. A couple of these performances were beamed onto our television screens, thanks to the Star TV network. He himself was invited to give violin, piano or organ recitals in Italy, Switzerland, Austria, England the the United States of America.
Back in India, after having taught music in the minor and major seminaries of Archdiocese of Goa, he held till his premature death the prestigious post of director of the western music department of Goa's Kala Academy.
It is interesting to note that his appointment to that government post did not involve any of the cumbersome procedures usually connected with such events. Not for him the interview, the godfather. Fr Lourdino did not even apply for the job. It was the government that sought him out, requesting the bishop of Goa to "permit Fr Barreto to accept the said post", because the authorities concerned felt that "Fr Barreto's service in the field of western music will be very beneficial to Goans and he will certainly create a good name for the Academia in the cultural map of India…" (excerpts from the letter addressed in 1977 to Bishop Raul Gonsalves by Ms Shashikala Kakodkar, the then chief minister of Goa and chairperson of the Kala Academy).
Barreto's multi-faceted musical talent took him from one field of action to another. Besides coordinating the musical education given by his department, he formed the Goa Philharmonic Choir, which gave recitals regularly over the years, accompanied by the Goa Symphony Orchestra, also directed by him.
His choir interpreted western, Indian and Goan choral music, besides staging a few operettas, broadway musicals and a full- length opera, Verdi's Il Trovatore. This musical ensemble had also the privilege of being invited to participate in international choir festivals in Rome and other capitals of Europe, having won accolades from audiences world wide.
This is not to speak of the highly successful tours the group made in our own country, covering Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai and Thiruvananthapuram. After a performance of the Goa Symphony Orchestra in Mumbai, back in 1985, the music critic of the *Sunday Observer* then remarked: "In having its own wind and percussion sections, the orchestra has done better than our Bombay ones." (SO, Sept 22, 1985.) Some of the unforgettable stage performances under Barreto's musical direction were: Mikado, Wizard of Oz, Oliver Twist, Fiddler on the Roof, Sound of Music, My Fair Lady and Orphaeus in the Underworld.
At the time of his death — after a brief illness, following renal failure — his heart and mind were set on his choir's impending visit to Vienna, later in the month of May. They had been invited to represent India at the Franz Schubert International Festival, organised to commemorate the second birth centenary of the celebrated musical composer from Austria. The Goa Philharmonic Choir was to give three full recitals in Vienna. The visit had to be cancelled, for no one else, obviously, could replace the maestro.
For some time, Fr Barreto was the president of Goa's Diocesan Commission for Sacred Music, having himself helped bring Konkani sacred music to international standards, through his outstanding compositions and choral arrangements. A similar contribution he made to Goan folk music, while, thanks to his expertise in contrapuntual and chromatic harmony, underwent new and revolutionary forms and execution, causing international contemporary composers to sit up and take note.
To listen to his imaginative *Salve Regina* or *Sam Fransisku Xaviera*, or to his Debussy-like treatment of *Dogi Tegi Beatini* (a Konkani 'dulpod') or again to his highly intricate *Raghupati Raghava Rajaram* just to mention a few of his inimitable creations was to experience the indescribable and the sublime.
In the academic field, Fr Barreto was also the chairman of the board of studies for western music of the Goa University and an adviser to the central government for the musical formation of the army, navy and air force bands across the country. To him goes the credit of getting the Goa Board for Secondary and Higher Secondary Education to include music as an operational subject from Std VII to XII. He himself prepared the text-books and undertook the training of music teachers in schools, something for which he will be long remembered. At a world congress for choir conductors held in Rome, Fr Barreto was described as "the best musicologist East of Suez".
Besides his countless musical compositions and arrangements for choir or orchestra, Fr Barreto published several articles and books. They were most studies and anthologies of Goan folk music in its various forms. And, as if it were his swansong, he left us one month before he died an audio cassette of his music, interpreted under his baton, but the Goa, by the Goa Philharmonic Choir, the first and the list of its kind.
Someone once remarked to him that he was cut for higher things and that he would do better if he settled abroad, like Zubin Mehta. Fr Barreto is said to have answered, in his typical laconic way: "Bloom where you are planted".
And this is a tribute to the 'tallness' that Fr Barreto was in our midst, where he was planted. By remaining in this low-land, as far as western music is concerned, he gave it height. And the world took notice.
May Goans and Indians in general continue to draw inspiration from this unrepeatable phenomenon called Lourdino Barreto. And grow tall. Even as the great maestro is now absorbed in the eternal heights, swelling a perennial Hallelujah chorus.

Um, no.

Mail::Field::names() does not work as documented. It returns "From : name1 ... nameN" instead of just a list of the names.

You have to pass separately created descendent objects into parent class constructors.

The Mail::Field->new() constructor does not actually properly parse headers when passed a tag, instead it interleaves the headers and gives you random (at best) results. wtf?!

Just say no. The amount of outside extra hackery with this module makes you want to die.
