Many composers are deeply identified with the music of their homeland. Antonin Dvorak's music is laced with Slavic melody, and his work was essential in creating a Czech musical style. Igor Stravinsky's early music speaks to the power of Russian folk music. But both composers spent vital years in the United States, and were profoundly influenced by the experience.

Ingo Metzmacher conductor
Johan Reuter baritone
High, gleaming sonorities and a sense of enchantment link Wolfgang Rihm's new piece with Mahler's beguiling songs from the magical folktae collection, Des Knaben Wunderhorn, sung by the much sought-after Danish baritone Johan Reuter. Songs of a very different kind permeate Shostakovich's dramatic 11th symphony, an almost cinematic evocation of the 1905 Revolution. The composer wove nine popular revolutionary songs into his dramatic portrayal, with its ominous, icy opening and terrifying Bloody Sunday massacre during which 1,000 workers were gunned down. Shostakovich chose the dark-toned violas for his poignant lament for the dead, before a tumultuous finale that whips up an urgent fervour for justice.

"My subject is War, and the pity of War." Benjamin Britten composed his War Requiem for the new Coventry Cathedral, but it's become one of the defining achievements of modern music, a timeless and profoundly moving exploration of man's inhumanity to man. The CBSO gave its world premiere: this music is in our blood, and every performance is special to us. Be there as Andris Nelsons and an international team of soloists bring this deeply personal masterpiece to Symphony Hall before taking the work on tour.

Gisčle Vienne - choreographer, artist, and puppeteer - has created a world marked by terror and trouble, the lively mixed with inertia, and perception trapped by hyperrealism. Her new creation, The Pyre condenses abstract, figurative, and narrative writing and pushes the intense relationship between Gisčle Vienne and the text by Dennis Cooper to its limits. Vienne and Cooper have worked together since 2004. A dancer and a boy, totally mute, evolve in a luminous installation reminiscent of contemporary urban lighting - the city, the club.

François Verret will begin his vast 5-year project "Chantier 2014-2018" at IRCAM, passing through Paris, Grenoble, and Edinburgh. Chantier 2014-2018 combines sound fragments and vocal trenches, acoustic and optical landscapes, visual haikus, and the utterances of a ventriloquist. An on-the-fly assembly of tableaux vivants inspired by the hallucinations of those who come back from the battlefield, haunted by the ghosts of History; time is sometimes paused to show us the true nature of a still life. Chantier 2014-2018 is written like an improvised and premeditated journal, intermittent and collective. A crucial movement or the unique way the space has been arranged undermines the masterful authority of speech, of fiction, or of a date.
How does one expose an event, be it trivial or historical, sifting through uncertain, fading, outrageous memories? In his "pre-posthumous works", Robert Musil describes the agony of a fly caught in Tanglefoot, the threat of a flying arrow, a buzzing of iron in the southern Tyrol sky above the lines of combat. A horrifying feeling of foreboding mixed with an unexpected happiness.
Constantly on the lookout for these moments of shock, François Verret, as a playwright, engages a group of close artists-actors, dancers, musicians, and video artists-simultaneously in his research lab.
Where to start? In the very environment of the front lines.

Matthew Barley - Cello
Matthew Barley celebrates 100 years of Benjamin Britten with an ambitious national tour during 2013 which will involve concerts, workshops and special events in at least 100 venues across the UK.
In what promises to be an intriguing solo show, showcasing his ever-growing virtuosity as a world-renowned cellist, Barley places Britten's powerful Third Cello Suite – dedicated to and first performed by the great Russian cellist Mstislav Rostropovich – at the centre of a programme which also includes a suite by JS Bach, who greatly inspired Britten. The programme also includes solo cello music by Tavener and specially-commissioned new works by Dai Fujikura, James MacMillan and DJ Jan Bang.
Not content with convention, as ever, Barley has commissioned visuals which will accompany the performance of the Britten from Yeast Culture (the team behind a number of critically acclaimed films including the Rite of Spring installation with the Philharmonia Orchestra). The new works by Fujikura and DJ Bang fuse cello with computer technology.

Thierry Fischer conductor

"The sound references are never used anecdotally; every one of them is integrated by Kagel's extraordinary harmonic imagination into a world in which nothing is what it seems, and in which every new vista contains a genuine surprise." Andrew Clements
Discover The Pieces of the Compass Rose, an extraordinary musical travelogue taking you from the north east of Brazil to the Gulf of Finland via the South American Andes. This is a rare performance of all eight movements, inspired by places located at each point of the compass relative to Kagel's native Argentina.
The distinctive sound of the salon band orchestration is accompanied by a huge array of unusual percussion instruments: cushions, a conch, even an axe chopping wood. A composer whose cultural and musical outlook embraced a life lived crossing continents, The Pieces of the Compass Rose is Kagel's response to the diverse soundworlds evoked by geography, language and ethics.

Wagner is dying in Venice. He will leave behind some of Western art's greatest works. But he hasn't finished his life's work; he is tormented by his need to write a music drama about the Buddha.
Welsh National Opera is proud to present the UK staged premičre of the late Jonathan Harvey's extraordinary opera. Wagner Dream is part biography, part fantasy that will transport you into another realm.
Supported by members of the Getty Family as part of British Firsts and by a lead gift from The Kobler Trust.

Death in Venice
English National Opera
London Coliseum
United Kingdom
Two unspoken themes run throughout Britten's much-admired opera: the impossible passion that a troubled writer forms for a fellow hotel guest, and the cholera epidemic which the authorities are all too keen to hush up. In Death in Venice, Britten revisits the subject of corruption of youth and innocence that so fascinated him and delivers a haunting theatrical experience of consummate power.
Deborah Warner's production of Britten's final opera celebrates the composer's centenary year and reaffirms ENO's position as the world's leading producer of his operas. This production reunites award-winning director Warner with ENO Music Director Edward Gardner, who returns to Britten following ENO's productions of Billy Budd (2012) and Peter Grimes (2009), for which his conducting was described as 'deeply musical' (Financial Times).
Warner's relationship with ENO continues to flourish having directed Diary of One Who Vanished, St John Passion, Messiah and most recently Eugene Onegin, ENO's sumptuous, elegant and epic co-production with the Metropolitan Opera, New York.

BBC Singers
Raschčr Saxophone Quartet
James Morgan conductor
As unusual a musical collaboration as you're likely to hear, this concert brings together the expert choral forces of the BBC Singers with the instrumental ones of the Raschčr Saxophone Quartet. Founded in 1969 by one of the modern pioneers of the instrument, Sigurd Raschčr, the quartet are renowned for their virtuosity - and a German critic has written "If there were an Olympic discipline for wind playing, the Raschčr Quartet would definitely receive a gold medal."
In tonight's wide-ranging programme they give, with the BBC Singers, the British premieres of three of the many pieces they have commissioned from living composers. The Estonian Erkki-Sven Tüür sets a Latin prayer by St Anselm of Canterbury, Giya Kancheli has based his piece on a variety of sacred texts from his native Georgia, while Belfast composer Ian Wilson sets words by the Austrian Expressionist poet and artist Oscar Kokoschka.
Alongside these pieces, the BBC Singers perform two fascinating works for unaccompanied voices by Per Norgard and Knut Nystedt, while the Raschčr Quartet demonstrate that four saxophones are just as well suited to the music of the Baroque as to contemporary scores.

The Gloaming
In a much anticipated UK premiere, The Gloaming collective carves new paths connecting the rich Irish folk tradition and the New York contemporary music scene. From haunting sean-nós songs to raucous folk explosions, they make music that is both ancient and utterly new.
The super-group came together at Grouse Lodge Studios in West Meath in early 2011 and features New York pianist Thomas Bartlett (aka Doveman), Chicago guitarist Dennis Cahill, fiddle master Martin Hayes, hardanger innovator Caoimhin Ó Raghallaigh and Irish singer Iarla Ó Lionaird – well known for his contribution to the legendary Afro Celt Sound System and arguably the finest singer of his generation.
'Neither slavishly traditional nor willfully contemporary, it sought out uncharted terrain (some of which was undoubtedly familiar) – and, most impressively, welcomed their audience as essential passengers on that journey' Irish Times

But there's a man in Kansas City who knows his Magnums... knows them so well, in fact, that he understood the essential need to add Charger Daytona-style wings to two of them. And, crazily enough, they look way better than the mental image one gets from hearing the description "'78 Magnum With Daytona/Superbird wing." Thanks to David for the photos; make the jump to read his description of these fine classic automobiles. There's a guy here in Kansas City with three Magnums. Two of them have the elusive Superbird wing styling option. Advertisement Advertisement I've never been able to track down the owner. He parks on top of the garage to preserve the awesomeness. He has the yellow one, the silver one, and then a bondo'n'primer beater he drives infrequently.Reply38 repliesLeave a reply

On Sept. 14, 1914, the Board of Administrators of Tulane University passed a resolution formally establishing a new college at the university dedicated to the study and teaching of business administration. The vote culminated a long, spirited campaign in support of the college by the New Orleans Association of Commerce, a forerunner to the Chamber of Commerce, which argued that rigorous, state-of-the-art business training was essential for the city to realize its full economic potential.
The year 2014 will mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of what is today known as the A. B. Freeman School of Business. To commemorate this milestone, Freeman looks back at the last hundred years to highlight some of the notable people, events and achievements in the history of business education at Tulane University.
The New Orleans Association of Commerce, a civic group featuring many of the city's leading businessmen, sends a letter to the Tulane Board of Administrators and several local newspapers calling for the establishment of a college of business at the university. Robert Sharp, president of Tulane, replies that the university does not have the funds to start a new college. Undeterred, the association, led by its president, Leon C. Simon, begins to line up financial support among its members to underwrite the cost of establishing the college.
On Sept. 14, the Tulane Board of Administrators officially adopts a proposal submitted by the Association of Commerce to establish the College of Commerce and Business Administration of Tulane University. The plan calls for a Board of Guarantors, made up of members of the association and the Louisiana Society of Certified Public Accountants, to provide $5,000 per year for three years to underwrite the initial operating costs of the college. Morton A. "Doc" Aldrich, professor of economics at Tulane and a longtime champion of the effort to establish a business college, is named dean.
On Oct. 19, Professor Ralph J. Schwartz teaches the very first class at the newly formed college. The class, Commercial Law, takes place at the Association of Commerce's downtown headquarters, located at 315 Camp Street. The initial courses — which also include Foreign Trade, Accounting, Commercial Spanish, and Economics and Business Administration — meet nightly at 8 p.m. Tuition is $20 per course. The courses are aimed at working professionals, and many of the first students are prominent members of the business community.
The College of Commerce launches its first degree program, offering day classes on Tulane's uptown campus to enable students to earn a Bachelor of Business Administration. Classes are taught in the basement of Gibson Hall.
Ruby Perry, a teacher at Sophie B. Wright High School in New Orleans, becomes the first female student admitted to the College of Commerce. The Tulane Board of Administrators initially barred women from the college, but Aldrich felt strongly that women could benefit from business training and represented an important market for the growing school. Perry went on to a long career as an educator in New Orleans, including serving as principal of the Joseph Kohn High School of Commerce for Girls.
The College of Commerce becomes one of 16 founding members of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Dean Morton Aldrich plays a major role in the establishment of the prestigious organization and serves as secretary-treasurer for its first six years. Joining Tulane as founding members are Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard, New York University, Northwestern, Ohio State, University of California, University of Chicago, University of Illinois, University of Nebraska, University of Pennsylvania, University of Pittsburgh, University of Texas, University of Wisconsin and Yale.
More than 200 guarantors agree to underwrite the expenses of the college for three more years, and a college endowment is started with four $1,000 gifts.
E. Davis McCutchon (BBA '18) becomes the first graduate of the College of Commerce. McCutchon, the only graduate of the college in 1918, later became sales promotion manager at D. H. Holmes Co. He returned to campus in 1954 as chairman of the College of Commerce's 40th anniversary celebration.
The second term of guarantors' contract expires and is not renewed. After six years, the College of Commerce is self-supporting through tuition revenues.
The Tulane Commerce Alumni Club (TCAC), precursor to the Tulane Association of Business Alumni, is founded.
Morton A. Aldrich steps down as dean when he reaches the mandatory retirement age of 65, and Leslie J. "Bill" Buchan is appointed as his successor. Buchan, whom Aldrich had personally hired in 1930, brings big ideas to the College of Commerce, including plans to raise admission standards and establish a graduate program.
The College of Commerce launches the Master of Business Administration program and establishes the Division of Research, which performs applied research for local businesses.
The Norman Mayer Memorial Building, new home of the College of Commerce, is completed. The building is made possible through a gift from the estate of Mrs. Fannie Levy Mayer in honor of her late husband, a prominent New Orleans cotton broker and civic leader.
Tulane is selected for the Navy's V-12 program, which trains officers for service during World War II. While not limited to the College of Commerce, many of those officers-in-training opt for the business school. A year later, the College of Commerce becomes one of nine schools in the country selected for the Navy's Pre-Supply Program, which prepares students for the Navy Supply Corps School at Harvard.
A. B. Freeman, chairman of the Louisiana Coca-Cola Bottling Co., joins the Board of Administrators of Tulane University. While not an alumnus himself, Freeman is one of the city's most prominent businessmen, and his three children—Richard W. Freeman (BBA '34), Mary Freeman Wisdom (N '28) and Rosa Freeman Keller (N '32)—are each Tulane alumni.
Dean Leslie Buchan is elected president of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
The expanded Norman Mayer Memorial Building and Library is dedicated. The expansion adds an additional floor and a three-story annex to the original two-story building. When Buchan steps down to become dean of the business school at Washington University in St. Louis, Robert W. French is appointed as his successor. During his tenure, French makes it his mission to expand the reputation of the college in the community. In 1950, he founds the Public Affairs Research Council, a nonprofit research organization that exists to this day, and he later serves as director of the Port of New Orleans.

Fireplace blower TV interference
We got a new 50" HD TV that sits on a corner tv stand in the living room. On the same wall on the other end is a corner propane fireplace. The two are 18' apart +. When the burner comes on, a sensor kicks the blower on once heat reaches a certain level, and turns it off when the unit cools. When the motor goes on or off the tv goes black for a second then comes back on. This did not happen with our old tv ? I imagine this isn't good for the TV. To attempt to remedy this we ran a new line to a new plug behind the TV which the TV, and cable Reciever is plugged in. Still did the same. We then made sure the new plug was on a different buss than the fireplace in the breaker box. It was. Any ideas, Help...

I don't think your TV is switching off, but it is loosing signal. Most likely what is happening is that your gas heater is inducing RFI / EMI into the signal line coming into the TV. This can be especially true if you are picking up TV off the air with an antenna. In the old days, EMI / RFI would cause lines of static to appear on the picture. Today, with digital TV, you either get pixelation, or most likely complete loss of picture, like what you have. When signal is lost, the picture on most digital TV's goes either all black or all blue, instead of "snow" like what we were once used to.
You may be able to clear up the issue by checking your antenna or cable lines and making sure none of them are running by the gas furnace, and the lines are all grounded and shielded properly. Make sure all connectors from the converter box to the cable grid are tight, and all the lines from the cable converter to the TV are good and tight. Try using good quality cables too. Thin cables frequently lack good shielding and grounds and will let interference in. Are you using cable TV? If so, what type of connection do you have between the cable converter and the TV. The most common are Analog HD, or component video uses 3 wires, Red, Green, and Blue. Digital HD uses an HDMI connector which looks like a wide USB cable connector. Of course, there are the standard definition connectors too "composite" video which uses a single yellow colored coax connector. Advertisement |

The cable company put new lines in, in November 2012. The coax to the cable box is nowhere near the fireplace. They did use the usb type connector to the tv which I had to purchase from them, because it wasn't included in the installation and was recommended by the installer for the HD. Your conclusion sounds logical, so I'll have to double check everything tomorrow. We use the best of cables, a dvd player is hooked to the tv also, using the three cable set up, but is independent of the cable box. We have to put the tuner on a side AV to watch a movie. I think I'll put a CD in the player tomorrow and turn the blower motor on and off to see if the same thing happens. Never thought of that. Thank you for the assistance, at least I have a new route tofind a cure now.

text: An Enormous Galaxy Note For Stylus-Wielding Arty TypesSam Gibbs - Gizmodo UK8/06/12 6:08amFiled to: SamsungTabletNoteGalaxy noteNote 10.1ArtPhotoshopWacomRepublished45EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink If you were a fan of the original stylus-packing Galaxy Note, but always thought that 5.3-inches was just too small: good news. Samsung's finally released the long-awaited quad-core 10.1-inch version of the Note, and you should be able to get your hands on it by the end of this month. Advertisement Samsung's not messing around with the Note 10.1 after rethinking its design. It comes packing a 1.4GHz quad-core processor; a plentiful 2GB of RAM, and looks like a pretty decent upgrade over Samsung's recent salvo of tablets. On the connectivity front you've got the usual suspects, including Wi-Fi; Bluetooth 4.0, and 3G.You've also got an IR blaster, in case you want to use it as a remote; GPS with Glonass support, plus a 5MP shooter on the back and a front-facing 1.9MP camera for video calling. The bump in screen size certainly makes the stylus a little more practical, but we're not exactly talking Retina-like here; it's just 1280×800 for a 10-incher, which is on the low side in terms of pixel density these days.Samsung's S Pen optimisation is here in full force, of course, with Adobe Photoshop Touch being the marquee app. In fact, the device seems to be aimed squarely at the more creative types, and seems to be targeted at the same crowd that uses Wacom tablets, with its larger form and pressure-sensitive stylus. It'll come packing Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich—no Jelly Bean out of the box, unfortunately—but it should be on the shelves by the end of the month.

Our ocean is dying Mr Prime Minister and when the ocean dies, we will follow. We cannot live on this planet with a dead ocean.
Because of a statistically insignificant whaling catch? Are these people serious? They can't be. I don't think they are trying to be. How do they survive on this planet without logic or reason?
Hopefully this warning by the eco-terrorists constitutes a threat and submarines jointly developed by Aus and Japan are used to blow holes in the SS, or Sinking Ship as they also like to be called.

Ahh way to tarnish the word Australia with your self-satisfying emotional blah blah.
Anyone notice that the poorly constructed notice re: entry was shown when she came back a few days later after causing trouble the first time?
A notice of those who disagree being unable to enter is wrong and poorly played, but what's this -
museum's barring of "foreign-looking visitors"
She was there days before!!!! Causing trouble. Not hard to spot her again down there. The sign doesn't say anything about appearance either.
Typical twisting of fact and playing of pretty much any card available to get that emotion going.

There is nothing he could have done about any of the goals
And what about the second one in the first match which went straight through his arms, from a similar path to the goal he let in just two minutes earlier? Silent sinking of the ship.
Having a furrowed brow all the time and "all that passion" does not make a good full back.
Posted in: Colombia send Japan packing with 4-1 victory
So Japan finishes bottom of its group, in line with its lowest FIFA ranking within the group, and a very far cry from claims of being able to win the whole thing (looks at Honda). Although Honda was directly involved with Japan's two whole goals in three games, kicking one in himself and passing the other today, it's hard to criticise his contribution, but his tough talk isn't going to fly anymore.
The rest of the team is pretty much awful togetherl. Hopefully many will not be around for 2018 or it will be the same substandard soccer, lucky to even tie a match.
As for the local media, it is in theirs and corporate interests to talk it up, so I might just keep that in mind next time, if I didn't this time. The daggers are out now. Coach will of course be replaced. Won't change much though unless they change just about all of the current playing list.
Posted in: Colombia send Japan packing with 4-1 victory
Yep some nice very saves by the Mexican goalkeeper, especially the one that denied Neymar's header by centimetres, and some "lucky" saves by being in the right place and the Brazilian attack sending it straight at him. But even then he kept them out, as opposed to a certain keeper who has soy sauce fingers and lets goals in as if to say, "I'll shoyu the money."

There may be areas where the line has been paved for the bus to run, I took the BRT from Kesennuma to Sakari about a year ago so can't remember exactly, but from memory there were sections of new single lane road which were exclusively for the BRT, whether that was over the line or next to it or both...I think it was both.
The BRT bus is much cheaper to run than the train and has been up for over a year now. Rebuilding the Ofunato line is gonna require 40 billion yen or so, and that's just to get it up and going again.

LIMA, Ohio - Walter M. Lawson, Jr., 87, a former Lima city law director and a leader in civic causes who was the Elida, Ohio village solicitor since January, 1974, died at home Monday of an apparent heart attack.
He was a lawyer for nearly 60 years and was at his office through Friday.
"He was very active," said his daughter, Janice Schiffer. "He always felt there was something else to do."
Mr. Lawson had a practice for many years with the late Quentin Derryberry. He often had other duties too.
For much of the 1960s, he was an assistant law director of Lima. He was city law director from 1970 to 1973 and became Elida's solicitor the next year. He was a former president of the Allen County Bar Association.
He was a founder of the Lima Area Youth Orchestra, of which he'd been board chairman. He was a founder in the 1960s of Church People for Change and Reconciliation, a group in Lima that worked to foster racial harmony.
"He saw it was his responsibility as part of the community," his daughter said.
He was a former secretary of a city-county urban redevelopment group. He was a member of the development board of James A. Rhodes State College.
A Delaware, Ohio, native, Mr. Lawson received his bachelor's and law degrees from Ohio State University. He was a former Army captain who served in France during World War II and stateside during the Korean War.
He was president of the Allen County Veterans Service Commission and judge advocate of the Ohio Veterans Service Commissioners Association.
He attended regular board meetings of his Disabled American Veterans and AMVETS chapters. He was the last survivor among charter members from 1949 of the Lima Noon Optimist, of which he was a former president. He was a former governor of Optimist International in Ohio.
"Everything was half-full, not half-empty," his daughter said. "He lived with gusto in all he did.
"He never judged the less fortunate. He just cared for them," she said. "If you were looking for person who was a gentleman, you would see my dad."
Surviving are his wife, Maxine, whom he married March 20, 1943; son, Walter M. Lawson III; daughter, Janice Schiffer; sisters, Frances Lawson and Faun Barron; seven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.
The body will be in the Chiles & Sons-Laman Funeral Home, Shawnee Chapel, Lima, after 6 p.m. tomorrow. Services will be at 2 p.m. Sunday in Market Street Presbyterian Church.
The family suggests tributes to the church or the Lima Noon Optimist Foundation.

This guy thinks he is king, not president. I have no words to describe how I, as a tax-paying American, feel about his flagrant abuse of his office. If I said what I really think, and what I really wish for him in the coming year, a bolt of lightning would probably hit our house.

What would you expect from the "Sultan of Washington?" We created this monster…..
Who's "WE" God that pronoun is overused! I for one, did not want King O to win. Now he is doing what all Monarchs do-order a decree or a proclamation to show they are "working" on helping the country, while leaving the real task of governing to Parliament or a PM or his advisers.
King O now believes that unlike us common folk, who DO have jobs, and bills to pay, feels that for today his "work" is done and that a well "deserved" vacation is in order 'cue that Go-Gos song!
Now he and his Queen and their ROYAL offspring can RELAX, SURF, GORGE themselves while the rest of us, "eat cake" so to speak!

Yep, the guy who couldn't make it to his mother's Hawaiian death bed can't seem to get enough of the place now that he's the President.
Well, at least some of us know just were his priorities are now don't we?
But then again, we knew what Obama's priorities were after learning that:
Obama listened to Wright's hate filled khutbahs for 20 years.
Obama labeled a relative who took care of him during his youth as being "typically white" (while saying nothing nearly as derogatory about his black father that ditched him and his mother when he was young).
Obama proudly claimed that his grandfather served under Gen. Patton, while conveniently failing to remind us that this was his (typically?) white grandfather.
Obama publicly claimed that Trayon Martin could have "looked like his son" (while failing to say the same about the US Border guard that was killed by a thug that was armed by his criminally mismanaged Fast and Furious "supply/sell guns to the Mexican drug cartels" program).
Obama made both dishonest and ignorant comments about the Benghazi murders, while, at the same time, allowing his administration to falsely place the blame on an innocent video producer.
Obama decided to reward Biden, top lawmakers, and certain Federal employees with pay raises (while, at the same time, warning us of the "fiscal cliff" dangers.
I'm glad the rich got a tax increase, should have been more…just remember, these bastards live in predominantly blue states…they helped elect him, let them suffer now since he's here for another four years. The stupid republicans should have sat back and let Obama have what he wanted and the credit for it also…but, noooooo, they had to be involved and are now as much to blame for this fiscal cliff "deal" as the demos…..dumb asses!!!!!!! They never learn…bunch of dumb ass Charlie Brown's!
Calling any and all great white sharks to Hawaii…
You do something for us we do something for you…
We're gonna have to suffer for a few years, but trust me sooner or later there will come a tipping point. Some action or event that will expose Captain Zero for the piece of sh!t that he really is. He will get too cocky. Press his luck. Something will happen.
Then the majority of God-fearing patriots will stand up and force his departure. Constitutional crises. Gridlock. Fighting in the streets.
Until then, the suffering is almost too much to bear, watching our once proud country being torn apart brick by brick by this tyrant. Our Republic is being severely tested. But we will emerge stronger. And the anti-American elements among us will be exposed for all to see. -

ATLAS, for instance, is quite frightening, but it's not yet self-aware. This tiny hexapod, however, is and it's rather unsettling. AdvertisementWith all "limbs" intact, the hexapod gets along pretty quickly at 26 cm/s, but once you chop one of its six legs (?), it beings to stagger like a drunken sailor at about 8 cm/s. And then by the power of Greyskull or a series of algorithms, it runs through a series of tests to regain proper efficiency. In other words, it's basically self-aware. The correlation to humans the creators present is rather compelling: On a higher level, this concept could also share some similarities with what human do when they are injured: if a movement is painful, humans do not fully understand what cause the pain, but they identify the behaviors that cause the pain; once they know that some move are painful, they learn to instinctively avoid them.All joking aside, this is an amazing advancement in robotics and one that could have larger implications for other bots in the near term. Sure, it takes the little guy about 20 minutes to right the ship, but the fact that it can and does is pretty damn cool. [Spectrum IEEE]Reply39 repliesLeave a reply

Ivey's Two-Interview Process
In noting her transition from business school student to teacher to admissions director, Niki Healey admits to her passion for business. As her teaching role ended, the launch of Ivey Business School's 12-month MBA was announced, and Healey made her way into the director role earlier this year.
She recently discussed the school's distinct case-based program and the opportunities it offers candidates willing to think outside the box with BusinessWeek project assistant Daphna Behar. Here's an edited transcript.
How did you end up in the Ivey admissions office? Were you always interested in business?
I'm an Ivey graduate from 2003. I have always been passionate about business. I basically jumped from one side of the classroom to the other—I took on a teaching role. Ivey hires directly out of the program, and it is a unique opportunity to teach students two years behind you and to be on the other side of a case-based learning experience. It was a lot of fun. You are barely older than the kids in the classroom, but it is such a challenging position. Right when that role finished, Ivey was going through a strategy review and was going to announce the launch of the 12-month MBA. They were looking for someone to take on recruiting in the summer of 2005, and I moved into the director role earlier this year.
Have you seen any changes in the most recent application cycle, and if so why do you think that is?
We've had a significant increase in applications, partly because this is no longer a new program, with unanswered questions about what our placement rates will be like and what our MBA experience will be all about. We have graduated three classes, so there is less of that "early adopter" mentality. Soemthing we continue to do, and have always done from an admissions perspective, is to build relationships with the right candidates.
Who would be considered as the "right" candidate?
A big part of it is knowing whether or not case method is something you will excel in, and that you will be challenged by. It is not the right learning style for everybody. So what we try to do with our recruiting activities is to highlight the case experience. We show them the classes, and try to explain and relate the case-based experience. That process allows them to say "this is really for me, it's engaging" or "this isn't really the right learning style for me."
What are some main distinctions between Ivey's case-based program and a more traditional learning environment?
Our case-based program is primarily an experience where faculty act as facilitators instead of lecturers. Our faculty members would say the best teaching experience at Ivey is when they say the least and a discussion happens. They like to compare themselves to conductors of an orchestra. The less they have to step in, the better. Students are really learning by experiencing the class. The focus is highly action-oriented. So it's not just enough to say "here's what I would do," but you are pushed by faculty and by peers to say, "this is how I would do it—here is how I would implement these recommendations."
Team-based learning is another big component. It is not like going to a lecture, a more passive experience where information is being thrown at you. Our students will read a case on their own, prep the case, and then be a part of a larger group discussion. So this is a three-tiered process, which is important in the case-method program.
Have there been any major changes to the application process this year?
One of the things we have recently done is involve the career management center. The center's relationship with the student continues through to graduation. But all students considered for admission are now interviewed by the career management team, in conjunction with admissions. It is a two-interview process, and it happens simultaneously, so there is a lot of up-front screening from the school's perspective in terms of who we are selecting. It's a great opportunity for candidates to see that this is a thorough process. They can also have all of their questions answered, which is an important piece of the interview as well.
Is there ever a candidate who seems to be a good fit for the admissions team and not for the career management team or vice versa? How is that dealt with?
That was a question we had when we began implementing this process. Interestingly, there's a lot of consistency about the type of candidate we are looking for. So it doesn't happen very often. And we do have an up-front clause where we advise candidates that at times there may be a third interview, which is really the exception rather than the rule. Something might arise in one conversation that we would want to spend some more time on. Typically the third interview would be conducted by someone such as the director of career management, myself, an executive director—someone who can look at both groups' feedback objectively and decide to have another conversation and delve a little bit deeper with the candidate.
What are some of key mistakes that applicants make in the actual interview process?
Not preparing enough, not treating it like someone would treat a job interview and doing some research on the school. I think it is also important for a candidate to know not only why they want an MBA, but why they want an Ivey MBA.
The other challenge is communicating your experience in depth, with structured communication. An interesting challenge that candidates face is wanting to tell you everything at once, but we are also only asking specific questions. Sometimes trying to present an agenda can be a challenge.
Can you take me through the life cycle of an application at Ivey?
After the completed application is processed, within a couple of days, assuming this is someone we are interested in, there is a simultaneous request from both admissions and career management to meet with the student. After that, we typically interview on an ongoing basis. Most interviews are completed within three to four weeks.
What do students tell you is the hardest part of the admissions process at your school? How do you help students deal with it?
Waiting to hear back from the school. Apart from that, I would say understanding how the committee makes decisions, thinking about how all the pieces fit together, and thinking about their profile strengths and weaknesses. They don't have access to others applying to the program to know where they stand. It's important to look objectively at what's strong about their applications and what's not, and be able to play up strengths and address weaknesses for the rest of the process—for instance, during interviews.
How many students were accepted and how many students chose to attend this year?
Our yield in terms of offers is actually quite high, relative to benchmarks across admissions, likely because of the selection that comes with saying, "yes I want this program, I am interested in case-based learning, and I want to move to London, Ontario, and really dive into this experience." We see a strong yield—75% to 85%—which is good from our perspective because it means we are giving offers to the right people. We are more concerned, once we find them, are they choosing us? It is relatively easy to encourage anyone to apply, but what we try to do is encourage the right people to apply.
Is there a certain number of rounds for this process? Are there any benefits to being in an earlier round?
We publicize that there are technically five rounds. The rounds are combined into May and September groupings. There is a definite advantage to applying to earlier rounds. Not only because there is more space in the program, but also because of scholarships and admissions awards.
What are some common mistakes candidates make in their applications?
One of the biggest mistakes is not doing enough homework. I have always been amazed at knowing how people make purchase decisions. People spend more time on what vehicle they want to buy, what home they are going to purchase, and don't realize this is one of the biggest investments in a lifetime. So make a point of doing the research, visiting the campus, speaking to students, alums, faculty, and really trying to get a sense of what the culture of the program is, and what being aligned with this particular program would mean for the rest of one's career. People don't always spend enough time thinking it through.
What's the most unusual or difficult essay question on your application? What's your advice to students on how to answer it?
We are in the process of developing new questions for next year. One of the questions people struggle with now concerns a difficult decision they had to make and the process by which they made it. Candidates worry about what the admissions people want to hear, as opposed to maybe discussing a big ethical challenge they had to face. They concern themselves with how that will be perceived and instead fall back on an essay topic such as choosing to pursue an MBA. This isn't always the best expression of the applicant. It is important to take the time to say, "let me tell them about me." It might be harder for a candidate who is used to playing it too safe, or trying to anticipate what they think we want to hear. Nonetheless, it is more important for us to see the individuality in an application.
How important is an applicant's quantitative GMAT score?
For us it falls in line with questions of someone's profile. It is very much an individual answer, depending on what someone's background looks like. Typically in the 600-plus range is where people are successful. But thinking about the GMAT from an admissions perspective, we look to answer the question of, "does a candidate demonstrate they've had academic success and a rigorous program and that they can handle the course portions of our MBA curriculum?" Sometimes the GMAT does that; sometimes an undergrad average can do that. But another piece of the GMAT for us is on the back end, and from a career perspective, in terms of "is this something recruiters will be asking a particular candidate for?" Sometimes it's relevant, for example, in banking and consulting, and other times it is less relevant. So it really does come down to each candidate and what they have demonstrated in where they want to go.
What's the typical amount of work experience you're looking for in an applicant?
The range is two to nine years, and the average is around five. Because it is a case-based program, having things to contribute to class discussion is critical, so the quality of the work experience is important, not just the length. Also, work experience is important for context, in order to apply learning and class discussion to professional background.
What do you want to see in applicants' recommendation letters?
It is important to see consistency with what the applicant has already identified, such as key accomplishments, key highlights, and key strengths—in order to make sure the references know the candidates well, and that the candidates know themselves well. The other piece of a reference that is critical is real depth and a strong relationship with the candidate, as opposed to someone just high up in an organization who doesn't have a lot of direct experience. We do ask specific questions in terms of leadership and team skills.
What financial aid opportunities are available to students?
Opportunities are twofold. One would be from the scholarship and donor award side of the school, where applications are reviewed simultaneously with admissions decisions. Some awards are need-based, others are merit-based, and we are always looking at specific industries or demographics. There are also purely merit-based scholarships that would come through the MBA admissions team.
How do you attract women and underrepresented minorities? Do you have any special programs to attract these students?
We find that half of the students within our program are born outside of Canada. So we recognize the importance of diversity, but it isn't formally tracked in terms of making admissions decisions. With a female dean at the helm of Ivey, the gender mix of a classroom is important to us. We have certainly developed a lot of programs specific to recruiting strong women into Ivey. It is always a challenge to get them into an MBA program, and we have been pleased to see an increase from the 20% range to the 30% range. It is something we continue to focus on, as we would love to see a mix of 50/50 like at the undergrad level, but we are not quite there yet.
Do you have any special initiatives or procedures for international applicants? What percentage of the student body is international?
The process is the same, but the additional requirement for these candidates is the TOEFL exam. What we look for is their English fluency, and we can do this by screening twice in the interview, and looking at things like essay questions and GMAT scores. We know communicating in English will be a critical piece of success for them at Ivey. They will need to stick their hands up, ask questions, and contribute to the discussion. The screening process is the same in terms of rigor.
Can you describe someone you admitted recently who is a surprising fit? Someone who doesn't fit the "profile?"
There are always interesting stories; our most recent one is of a student who had been traveling across the country playing in a rock band. He would use summers and vacations to schedule tours. He is from Canada, but didn't have the traditional business profile or background. However, he ventured into management consulting after the program. There are always unique candidates. We admit medical doctors, chiropractors, nurses—the kinds of folks who are in a learning team, and the rest of the team will say, "wow, it is interesting that we have a neurosurgeon in our program," and the neurosurgeon will say "wow, it is interesting that there is someone from real estate in our program."
Are there any stereotypes about Ivey or University of Western Ontario that you'd like to disprove?
There is always a challenge when it comes to a prestigious MBA program. Our program is sometimes perceived as a cutthroat environment. One of the neatest things for me to see is how supportive the students are of one another. Ivey is a place that is naturally competitive, but isn't cutthroat. They prep cases together; they prep for interviews for the same jobs and help each other out. Because they all moved to London and no one knows anyone in London, there are strong friendships formed before anything else. That is usually the biggest surprise when people come to visit the campus—they see that everyone knows everyone, and there are personal relationships between faculty, staff, and students. There is a supportive culture, and I think that comes as one of the biggest surprises.
Also, one of the things our students tell us that we, as an admissions and a recruiting team, don't always think about, is how important going to a non-commuter-based program has been for their MBA experience. I know that not every program is located in a smaller city like London, but it means everyone in our program, Canadians and international students, make a big commitment to step out of their comfort zone for a year and devote everything to this MBA experience. And at the end of the day, I think people get out of it what they put in.

Info on Bukh engines???
Just bought a 38 Cheoy Lee with a Bukh engine that the previous owner had tried to mess with. The manifold is off and a box of parts sits next to it. He says that he got it started once with starter fluid but it would not stay running. Been apart for a while and after looking at the rest of his handy work around the boat I fear the worst. Is this a motor worth trying to fix as I have never heard of it before and can't seem to find any parts service in the USA. Any info or advice is appreciated.
Thanks, Garr |
Re: Info on Bukh engines???
Try this link.
http://www.bukh.dk/distributors/#North-America Bukh engines are used as life boat engines.. But I don't know what condition your engine is in. |
Re: Info on Bukh engines???
You can download a Workshop and Users Manual from here.
Bukh DV10/20 engines are Danish purpose-made marine engines - not industrial conversions. Built like the proverbial "brick latrine". They are well-worth re-building where the spares are available. Both pistons go up and down together, and there is a balance weight on the crank-shaft. I had a DV20 in my previous boat, and never had a days problem in the 9 years I had her. The engine was 1984 vintage, and it is still going today (well, summertime). The boat is now used for chartering. I have a workshop manual, if you require any information, should you not be able to download the manuals. |
Re: Info on Bukh engines???
Thanks for the replies.

Foy was 74
MAYSVILLE � A longtime member of the community and former town commissioner, Brenda Foy, passed away Monday at the age of 74.
Foy, who is survived by her son Michael, was a town commissioner off and on until 2009. Foy unsuccessfully ran for another term in 2013, finishing seventh out of eight candidates in a race for five seats.
In addition to being a town commissioner, Foy served on the Maysville rescue squad and helped start the Frost Park Endowment Fund which is part of the Jones County Community Foundation. The fund has helped support and make improvements to the park.
Jones County Commissioner Sondra Ipock Riggs said she and Foy were close friends.
�She would help anybody and was just a wonderful woman,� Riggs said. �She loved Maysville and the county so much. She was very patriotic in everything she did. When she believed in something, she believed.�
Riggs said putting sidewalks in Maysville was one of Foy�s goals and the recent construction of sidewalks through the Safe Route to School program was the fulfillment of that goal.
�She said that it was so pretty to have sidewalks in a town,� Riggs said.
Maysville Mayor Edward Waltz said Foy had a lasting impact on the town.
�She did a lot for the town and was a big promoter of the police department,� he said. �We are going to miss seeing her around Maysville.�
Current Maysville Town Commissioner Bobby Flowers said he was sad to hear of Foy�s passing.
�I enjoyed serving with her on the board,� he said. �I never had any problems with her and she never had any problems with me.
Maysville Fire Chief Michael Jordan said he had a good relationship with Foy when she was a town commissioner.
�She was very supportive of fire and EMS and she will be missed,� he said.
As of press time, services arrangements were incomplete at Kahlert Funerals and Cremations of Maysville.

Wireless Industry's Staggering Impact on U.S. Economy
I just read some staggering data: By 2016, U.S. wireless industry will help bring about more productivity gains — $427 billion annually — than auto and pharmaceutical industries combined, according to a just-released report from consultancy Ovum.
Where will these benefits come from? Well, employees will increasingly use wireless broadband networks to access the Web from anywhere. Such networks should improve efficiency of providing at-home health-care services and help enable a much more mobile sales force. Wireless voice services will continue to displace desktop phones.
Clearly the CTIA, the wireless industry's association that commissioned the Ovum study, has done so hoping for some favors, such as less regulation. I suspect that the Big Two — AT&T and Verizon Wireless, which control the lion's share of U.S. wireless subscribers – are trying to prove that market consolidation of recent years has not had an adverse effect on consumers. And they want to warn Congress and regulators to thread carefully with efforts such as free-broadband-for-all, currently in review by the Federal Communications Commission, to make sure they don't disrupt the industry — so Ovum's productivity projections can come true.

Description: Set on Thanksgiving weekend of 1973, The Ice Storm looks into the lives of a wealthy Connecticut family who are calm and civil on the outside, but whose lives are quietly falling into chaos. Sixteen-year-old Paul Hood (Tobey Maguire) is home for the holidays from prep school; he'd just as soon have stayed at school, given the usual level of tension around the house and his desire to win the affections of Casey (Katie Holmes), a girl living in Manhattan. His 14-year-old sister, Wendy (Christina Ricci), is already a hardened cynic obsessed with the ongoing Watergate investigation, and she has begun acting out sexually with a neighbor boy, Mikey (Elijah Wood). Apparently, this runs in the family: Wendy's father, Ben (Kevin Kline), is having an affair with Mikey's mother, Janey (Sigourney Weaver), though Ben sees a future in the relationship and Janey does not. Elena (Joan Allen), Ben's wife, knows something is wrong with her marriage and her life, but she has no idea what she should do about it. As the teenagers surreptitiously experiment with drugs and alcohol, and the adults drift into mate-swapping, a dangerous blanket of freezing rain begins to cover New Canaan. The Ice Storm was adapted from the acclaimed novel by Rick Moody.~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

text: Freedom Wars Makes You Work Off a Million-Year SentenceToshi Nakamura12/22/13 1:00pmFiled to: hands-onfreedom warsps vitasonyvita tvplaystationmonster huntergod eaterpanopticonjump festa 2014jump festajapankotaku eastkotaku core686EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink I've been quite curious about Freedom Wars ever since I completely misjudged what sort of game it would be. So when I discovered that Sony had a playable demo booth set up at this year's Jump Festa, I had to try it out. For the demo, I was treated to a tutorial video explaining the basic controls and combat features. Basically, players play prisoners, each with a million year sentence set from birth. Our objective is to rescue civilians captured by "Abductors." By rescuing civilians, a prisoner's sentence is reduced – the end goal apparently being to reduce the sentence to zero and be freed.Each character can equip 2 weapons and a variety of useful items to use in combat. Each player also has a vine of thorns on their left arm that can be used to pull them up to vantage points a la Bionic Commando style, pull and cripple enemies, or for special attacks. Advertisement Heading to the demo, I went to a booth with three other players where a guide waited for us with 3 PS Vitas and a Vita TV hooked up to a monitor. Each player selected a PS Vita and joined the host game the guide had waiting for us with the Vita TV.I entered the game with the other players and was met by an instructor who told me to go to one of the multiple beams of light coming from the floor to start my mission. As per my habit with any adventure/RPG, I tried talking to the instructor a second time to see if they had anything else to say and was told that private chatter would not be tolerated before getting slapped with an extra hundred years onto my million year sentence. These guys weren't kidding around. Advertisement Before starting the mission I got to select my weapon loadout. Our default weapon selection consisted of a basic sword and a choice between an basic automatic rifle, a mini-gun that had high rate of fire and a penalty to mobility, and a rocket launcher that could single-fire rockets for large chunks of damage. I figured the demo would be set to the easiest possible setting, so I chose the mini-gun, since it was likely that a movement penalty wouldn't be a problem at that difficulty. The demo went fairly smoothly, with the 4 of us taking out 4 Abductors and saving the objective 3 civilians in about 6 minutes. It was a little short, but I got a pretty good feel for the game.Maybe it was the nature of the quest that wasn't so much about defeating monsters but about rescuing people and carrying them to extraction points, but the vibe I got from Freedom Wars made the game feel felt less like a game like Monster Hunter or God Eater and closer to something like a capture-the-flag match in Call of Duty. I can see the game's multi-player being a lot of fun depending on how they mix up the gameplay and customization options. Sponsored Gameplay-wise, Freedom Wars still feels rough around the edges and in need of refinement. The control response was a little clunky and I did encounter one glitch during combat where one of the other players latched onto an enemy Abductor's leg and the leg started spazzing out.Also, whenever an Abductor was defeated or heavily damaged, we would be treated to a wide angle view of the creature going down, which looked nice but interrupted the combat and took a moment to readjust when the camera went back to my character. It's only momentary, but in an action game where split-second judgment is key, such distractions could prove fatal. Advertisement Overall, Freedom Wars looks like it has potential but needs work. I am curious as to the single-player mode and if it stands on its own at all, but we never really got a chance to check that out. The game is being developed in part by Shift, which worked on the God Eater series, so if they follow the same user feedback refinement model, hopefully they'll be able to work out all the kinks by the time the game is completed.Freedom Wars is scheduled for release in Japan in 2014.

Rumors of Igor Jurkovic vs. Remy Bonjasky for GLORY in Japan this Summer
- Written by Dave Walsh
How many retired fighters have their possible return match rumored about, debated over and demanded as much as Remy Bonjasky? Not many that I can think of. Sure, some MMA sites were reporting that Cro Cop's bout against Ray Sefo was his retirement fight and that his fight for K-1 a few weeks ago was a "return" match, but if you read LiverKick, you know better. Remy Bonjasky on the other hand, has been rumored to come back for just as long as he has been retired. Word started circulating right after his retirement that he wanted $1 million for a retirement fight, but not against Badr Hari, and we don't blame him for that. Then as K-1 was making its return and Glory was beginning to ramp up, there were rumors of him signing for both promotions. In fact, both sides were seemingly certain at one point, with Glory even mentioning Remy Bonjasky on their website and having a profile for him before removing it shortly thereafter.
The rumor now is two-fold. The first part of the rumor is that GLORY is looking to run in Japan this August. If so that will be huge, as K-1 has yet to make any plans for Japan, and outside of announcing Masato as an executive producer and seemingly having a crew of Japanese people behind the scenes, they do not have their sights set on running shows on Japanese soil -- yet. GLORY on the other hand is going ahead full force with their plans, even if their original plan of having the K-1 name fell through. After the amazing GLORY World Series show on May 26th it is safe to assume that GLORY knows how to put on a show when the world is watching. The other rumor coming out is that GLORY will run the Ukraine in September, a show which originally slated for mid-summer, but has been pushed back.
Back to Bonjasky, the big rumor is that he is slated to return to action in Japan for GLORY this summer against Igor Jurkovic. It would surely be an interesting fight for him to return to, and the possible addition of Bonjasky to the GLORY World Series tournament field would add a whole new air of legitimacy to it, as he is yet another multi-time K-1 World Grand Prix Champion, with three wins under his belt, marking him as one of the most elite Heavyweight Kickboxers ever. In a tournament field with four time champion Semmy Schilt, Gokhan Saki, Errol Zimmerman, Brice Guidon and more, this would make the Heavyweight tournament tip in favor of GLORY over K-1, who would only really have Badr Hari, Daniel Ghita, Sergei Laschenko and Hesdy Gerges to tip their scales.
We've reached out to GLORY officials for confirmation on this, but until we hear more, chalk it up as a very interesting rumor. [source]
