First art, now science.
Los Altos is becoming an incubator for experimental projects, with the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art's "Project Los Altos" exhibition and the newly opened Helix, the San Francisco-based Exploratorium's first satellite location.
Visitors walking past Helix's 316 State St. location may find it difficult to resist the allure of some curious science contraptions that sit just feet from the front window of the 5,000-square-foot community science center.
Funded by a one-year grant from Los Altos-based Passerelle Investment Co., the new space boasts approximately 25 kiosks with activities that challenge youth and adults alike to explore scientific principles in engaging ways.
From a "Scope on a Rope" that allows guests to magnify things around them at a microscopic scale and view them on a big screen to an anamorphic mirror that demonstrates how a concave piece of glass reflects the objects around it, the variety of possible experiments in the space offers much to fascinate and challenge visitors.
"It's been surprisingly popular," said Helix Director Anne Richardson of how the new space has been received since it opened for a soft launch Nov. 23. "People are happy that Los Altos has something like this to offer."
The multipurpose space offers two floors of exhibit space, a retail shop and a classroom on the second floor that will be used for community programming.
Visitors may want to return to Helix more than once, as new installations are scheduled to rotate into and out of the space frequently.
Admission to Helix is "pay what you wish," a decision made to ensure that the community space was accessible to all.
Although Helix is scheduled to be open through November 2014, Richardson said organizers are exploring revenue models that may keep the science center open even longer.
"We want people to feel like it's their center," Richardson said.
Helix's hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays through Wednesday, 1-8 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays, and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.

The Rhino Iguanas at Australia Zoo are in for a treat. They have a brand new home!
With spring well and truly here, it's starting to warm up again and the reptiles at Australia Zoo are coming out and getting active. Unlike reptiles, who quiet down, the rest of Australia Zoo were very busy all through winter, making lots of exciting changes including building some new enclosures.
One of our newest additions here at Australia Zoo is the display enclosure for our Rhinoceros Iguanas (Cyclura cornuta), located near the admissions area, besides the Croc Lair shop. The enclosure is divided into two separate areas with Mr. Jingles and his girlfriend Pinko living on one side and Rhino himself living next door.
The new enclosure was designed to replicate the Rhino Iguanas natural habitat, the coastal rocky shoreline of the islands of Hispaniola. You will notice trickling waterfalls in the enclosure, just like the numerous waterfalls found along the overgrown cliffs on the Hispaniola islands, which provide a source of freshwater for the animals. We have also created a tropical beach for the lizards to roam around and the main display rock in each enclosure is heated, giving them a nice high basking platform from which to observe what's going on around them!
Rhino Iguanas are primarily herbivores, eating fruit, leaves and flowers, however they will occasionally supplement their diet with insects and larger prey items like small birds and mammals. The Rhinoceros Iguana gets its name from the horn like growths on the end of its nose.
So next time you're visiting Australia Zoo, make sure you pop around and say hi to our Rhino Iguanas!

What exactly is a paradigm in science?

This is a knowledge-based approach that does not require evolution, per se. We call it an evolutionary approach in normal science because evolution is the paradigm, not because evolution is required, per se. This is an excellent example of what Phil is talking about. You can, for example, replace "evolutionary" with "design" and have the same paper.

An evolutionary proteomics approach identifies substrates of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase
( Ras proteins | sequence conservation | stationary phase )

Department of Molecular Genetics, Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210
Edited by Anthony J. Pawson, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada, and approved August 12, 2005 (received for review February 7, 2005)
Protein kinases are important mediators of much of the signal transduction that occurs in eukaryotic cells. Unfortunately, the identification of protein kinase substrates has proven to be a difficult task, and we generally know few, if any, of the physiologically relevant targets of any particular kinase. Here, we describe a sequence-based approach that simplified this substrate identification process for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this method, the evolutionary conservation of all PKA consensus sites in the S. cerevisiae proteome was systematically assessed within a group of related yeasts. The basic premise was that a higher degree of conservation would identify those sites that are functional in vivo. This method identified 44 candidate PKA substrates, 5 of which had been described. A phosphorylation analysis showed that all of the identified candidates were phosphorylated by PKA and that the likelihood of phosphorylation was strongly correlated with the degree of target site conservation. Finally, as proof of principle, the activity of one particular target, Atg1, a key regulator of autophagy, was shown to be controlled by PKA phosphorylation in vivo. These data therefore suggest that this evolutionary proteomics approach identified a number of PKA substrates that had not been uncovered by other methods. Moreover, these data show how this approach could be generally used to identify the physiologically relevant occurrences of any protein motif identified in a eukaryotic proteome.

Subject: RE: Is evolution really the central theory for all of biology?
Before we leave this topic, at the risk of saying something that has already been said, here's my take:
I'm probably biased because I'm trained as an electrical engineer -- meaning that my view of the sciences is the so-called "hard" sciences -- chiefly physics. To an individual with a physics bbackground, evolution looks "messy". If we could have more fossils and could recover more genetic material from ancient life forms, perhap it wouldn't be so messy. An article in a now defunct magazine called Scientific Research ~1967 dealt with the Wistar Symposium in which Professor Murray Eden brought up some mathematical challenges to the theory of evolution. They interviewed Eden and among other things he mentioned a paper submitted to one of his colleagues for review. The paper discussed the evolutionary implications of the dominance of a particular variety of rodent (I believe) in a particular location. To see what would happen, Eden changed the variety and circulated the paper to colleagues for comment. Soon evolutionary explanations came back. The article implied that t his pointed out a flaw in the theory of evolution. I think it just points out that evolution is an incomplete model, but still very useful for understanding how life has developed in a systematic way and for making some kinds of predictions. It does not now have the precision of say classical physics, but it is still a useful model. (And we all know that classical physics is an approximation of relativistic physics (at high gravity/high speed) and quantum mechanics (at the quantum level))

Cornelius brought this up:
. a paper out of Doolittle's lab has called for a "relaxation of tree thinking."
This is a good example of scientists doing what scientists do and the great unwashed, not steeped in science, reaching errant conclusions. The "tree of life" with more and more fossils having been found has developed into more of a "bush." Richard Leakey pointed this out in his book, Origins Revisited. Note the title of his book. With new discovery of fossil evidence, branches are reshaped when the evidence accumulates. No one with any sense denies the interconnectedness of life, but exactly where and wh en branching occurred gets revised with new discovery as it should, that's how science works.

Throughout the rest of the year, I made incremental changes and additions.
I began mcmanweb around this time in 2000, with a small collection of articles on depression and bipolar. My goal was to create a comprehensive resource exploring mood disorders from every conceivable angle. Over time, I built up a collection of more than 300 artlcles (later pruned down to about 250), most written by myself, but with some personal accounts from contributors.
As the years went on, I essentially turned over just about all my content, save the pieces on famous people and personal stories. But by this time last year, it was clear to me that I had fallen way behind. I'll just mention one of the matters I had to deal with, which involves design and the organization of my content.
The key to a successful website is making it easy for visitors to find what they are looking for, fast, and to facilitate their going deeper and wider. My basic navigation since the beginning has been successful -with content organized under categories such as Mood, Treatment, Science, Stories, and so on - and I stuck with what worked.
Thus, from my home page - as well as every page on the site - you can click on a category, which will take you to a landing page with the articles containing the information you are looking for.
But how do you bind a site together? At the same time, how do you differentiate between categories? How, in essence, do you lend coherence to the reader's experience?
This time, I decided that a collection of old (and a couple of new) master's paintings would define the look and feel to mcmanweb. A different old master would illustrate each category. Moreover, I carried forward these same old masters into every article. Thus, a Rembrandt for all my DSM articles, a Vermeer for my Treatment articles, and so on.
So here I am - today - nearly a year after I started the project when it occurred to me that I never explained my choice of illustrations to my readers. I just remedied that a few minutes ago, with short explanations on all my landing pages, which I have reproduced here. So without further ado ...
I cordially invite you to check out mcmanweb.

In these budget-crisis days, when California citizens showing true public spirit are thin on the ground, I propose a tip of the hat to
Parsky, 66, a prominent Los Angeles lawyer and investment executive, has shouldered the thankless task of chairing a
appointed by Gov. Schwarzenegger and the Legislature to rework California's tax system. He's determined to produce a sheaf of unanimous recommendations for lawmakers by summer's end.
So Mr. Parsky deserves our admiration, even though he's clearly headed for failure.
Revising the state's tax structure is a huge undertaking riddled with political land mines. Parsky's panel, majestically dubbed the Commission on the 21st Century Economy, is bipartisan to a fault: It ranges ideologically from a couple of
on the right to former
, on the left.
Would such a group be able to agree on anything? Judging from its meeting Thursday, a four-hour ordeal I attended so you wouldn't have to, it seemed as though the panel has been struggling so much to avoid partisan gridlock that it has left perhaps the most important element of the state's tax structure off the table -- the property tax, which is at the hub of the state's revenue dysfunction.
That began to change Thursday when Parsky decreed that 1978's Proposition 13 should be on the agenda at future meetings -- at least to the extent that the body consider special rules for commercial and industrial properties, the so-called split roll concept. That mollified Keeley, who had objected to the narrowness of the commission's deliberations thus far. But it also agitated former GOP Assembly Speaker Curt Pringle, a split roll opponent who seemed on the verge of bolting from the room in protest of not getting his way.
The commission's neglect of the implications of Proposition 13 is only one of the lead weights it has been carrying in its saddle for the last six months.
Its most obvious difficulty is its time frame. Schwarzenegger established the commission
on Oct. 30 and set a reporting deadline of April 15. Some states spend years revising their antiquated tax systems; for some reason Schwarzenegger thought that moving California's from the Stone Age into modern times needed only 5 1/2 months.
The first 12 commissioners (six by the governor and six by the Democratic-controlled Legislature) weren't named until Dec. 11. They didn't hold their first meeting until Jan. 22.
The deadline was later extended to July 31. Parsky acknowledged Thursday that they won't meet that goal either, for which he wins the No Kidding award. He's proposing another extension to Sept. 15, the date the Legislature hopes to go home for the year.
A more fundamental problem is that the governor gave the body a curiously narrow charge. His executive order seems preoccupied with the "volatility" of tax revenue, as if the biggest problem facing the state is that some years it takes in a large amount of money, and some years it takes in a
large amount of money. (But never, courtesy of Proposition 13 and other tax restrictions,
The truth is that this concern about volatility is merely an excuse for delivering a new tax break to the rich.
That's because the main source of tax volatility is the capital gains reported by wealthy taxpayers. In good years such as the late 1990s and the mid-2000s, these were lavish. When the markets then crashed, capital gains dried up and the state budget was left dependent on revenues that had evaporated.
What gives the game away is that the commission's working plan, concocted by the governor's team, involves flattening the personal income tax by cutting tax rates for the wealthy. The plan would also eliminate the sales tax and corporate income tax in favor of a ridiculously complicated newfangled device called a business net receipts tax.
At its heart this is a sales tax by another name, broadened to cover more services and goods, but every bit as regressive as the sales tax of today -- that is, it hits the middle and working classes especially hard, since they spend a bigger chunk of their income on core purchases than the wealthy do.
These changes certainly would reduce annual variations in tax receipts. But at what cost? As the commission staff acknowledges, in the baseline year of 2014 they would produce a tax increase totaling $7 billion for Californians earning $20,000 to $200,000 a year, but a cut of $4.4 billion for those earning $200,000 and up.
It took Richard Pomp, a University of Connecticut tax expert who is the only non-Californian on the commission, to denounce the absurdity of this result.
"How are you going to defend a $7-billion tax increase on the middle class?" he asked at Thursday's meeting. "Tell them it's going to reduce volatility?"
As Pomp observes, if volatility is really the curse Schwarzenegger seems to think it is, there are other ways to address it. One is to identify the most variable segment of income tax receipts and sequester it in a rainy-day fund, not to be touched except to cover shortfalls in lean
This idea didn't play a prominent role on the committee's agenda until a few weeks ago, when Keeley proposed it in an attempt to derail the flat-tax locomotive. (He included it in a package of alternative proposals called
.) Parsky, to his credit, has now placed it on the table, and it will be discussed at forthcoming meetings.
But the broader problems with the commission remain. It has devoted virtually no study to how changes in technology, including the rise of online commerce and the shift of business transactions from paper documents to digital transmission, will affect the state's ability to collect sales and business taxes. Isn't that what the 21st century is all about? Nor has it examined how an accretion of loopholes has made the state's corporate income tax a porous laughingstock.
Most important, it hasn't absorbed the lesson that haste is the enemy of good policymaking. With the Legislature planning to close up shop from mid-September through year's end, why the rush to produce recommendations by Sept. 15? Why not take at least until January, when lawmakers return?
This haste leads one to wonder whether the Parsky commission was never really meant to revise the state's overall tax system -- it was just a device cooked up by the governor, with the connivance of the legislative leaders,
to write rich people and
rich corporations more loopholes.
The commission has a clear choice: Hasten to meet an artificial deadline with a tax package preoccupied with the chimera of volatility and filled with flat taxes that no one will trust; or spend time to determine how the state's tax system can be made more productive, broad and fair.
Who knows -- if it takes the latter course, it could become one of the few state commissions ever to make a difference.

Plenty of people have a house by the river in the coastal areas of Brevard County, Florida. But how about an actual house on the river?
"We all thought it was going to be a dockhouse," said neighbor Valerie Adcock.
Five hundred yards offshore in about four feet of water, a novelty has literally become a houseboat, as it sits on the Indian River just north of the Beachline.
Adcock grew up there, and said the owners built it a couple docks down within the last two months.
It's two stories high and about a few hundred square feet big. It has a porch, several windows and doors. It's essentially a cabin surrounded on all sides by water, accessible by boat or perhaps a quick swim.
"It just sits there," Adcock said. "Doesn't move. They'll come onto shore every once in a while, maybe once a week. I don't even know who it is."
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said it is OK for the houseboat to remain where it is, as long as its owner abides by the proper regulations.
FWC also said the owner has a marine sanitation device designed to keep untreated sewage out of the water. The house has a light turned on at night, and its platform is not touching the bottom of the river.
Adcock said the owner has a generator but it's no bother.
News 13 was not able to get in touch with the homeowner.
Neighbors said they are unsure if someone lives there full time.

What Shook The Ground In South Jersey?
What shook the ground in south Jersey on Tuesday afternoon?
Numerous residents in Atlantic, Cape May and Cumberland counties called police to report an earthquake around 3:10 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon and a second shake 15 minutes later.
"Felt it twice thought my windows were going to come crashing in," posted a North Wildwood resident wrote on the Wildwood Leader's Facebook page. Others report it sounded like a large truck was passing through.
However, there is no explanation for what caused the tremor according to WMGM-TV.
The United States Geological Survey website shows no seismic activity in New Jersey or most of the United State in the past seven days. The 177th Fighter Wing in Egg Harbor Township and Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst tell WMGM-TV that none of their aircraft were in the area on Tuesday afternoon.

Sunday Afternoon at the Opera
your "lyric theater" program
With Keith Brown
programming selections for the months of July and August
Sunday July 4th:Gershwin, Porgy and Bess. For this Sunday, the Fourth of July, an American Opera is certainly called for. If there is an archetypal Great American Novel (Moby Dick, perhaps?), is there not also a great American Opera? The leading candidate for that title has got to be George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess (1935). Gershwin conceived it as a wholly sung opera, but following its premiere production on Broadway and after George's untimely death in 1937, Porgy and Bess as an opera was mutilated. Sung passages reduced to spoken dialogue, the orchestration was simplified and it was treated as a Broadway musical. Yes, Gershwin did sanction cuts here and there in the score, since it's performance time was so long, and he made numerous revisions in the music, some miniscule, some rather extensive. American lyric theater historian John Mauceri has restored Gershwin's original 1935 score, which necessitated keeping certain material and omitting various numbers. Sadly, Porgy's wonderful "Buzzard Song" had to go (Gershwin sanctioned this cut!), but reintroduced into the picnic scene on Kittiwah Island is the playing of the "Charleston Orphans' Band." Also restored are spoken interjections written into the 1935 prompter's book. Mauceri led the Nashville Symphony Orchestra and Chorus for a Decca/London recording of the "authentic" Porgy and Bess opera, made at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center in 2006. Baritone Alvy Powell and soprano Marguerite Lister are the Porgy and Bess of our generation. (They wowed me when I saw them in Connecticut Opera's 1998 production.) Musical Heritage Society picked up the British label's two CD package for distribution stateside.
Sunday, july 11TH: Corigliano, A Dylan Thomas Trilogy/ Mr. Tambourine Man. This Sunday more American vocal music of our time from a much-honored living composer. His fame may never quite rise to the immortal heights of Gershwin or Bernstein, nevertheless John Corigliano (b. 1938) ranks among our country's top classical composers. A Dylan Thomas Trilogy (1999) may end up being regarded as his most important large-scale composition. Corigliano first read the Welshman's poetry as a young man in 1959. Over the course of the next four decades, as the poems he so loved mirrored the changes in his life, Corigliano made settings of them and assembled them into an oratorio. The distinguished British baritone Sir Thomas Allen was chosen as principle vocal soloists for the world premiere recording of the Trilogy for Naxos Records, made in Nashville, Tennessee in 2007. Leonard Slatkin conducts the Nashville Symphony Orchestra and Chorus.
One of these Sundays I'll broadcast a recording of Corigliano's much praised opera The Ghosts of Versailles (1991) if I run across one. If you want more Corigliano today you have to content yourselves with a song cycle Mr. Tambourine Man: Seven Poems of Bob Dylan (2000/03), which Naxos also released as a world premiere recording along with the Trilogy in 2008. I find it hard to believe the composer was unfamiliar with Bob Dylan's song "Mr. Tambourine Man." How could any musically literate person living through the 1960s not remember Dylan's songs?! At least that is the pose that Corigliano strikes in writing his own notes for the Naxos release. He states that he was interested only in the lyrics Bob Dylan wrote, not Dylan's music. What he succeeded in doing Walter Simmons summed up in his review in the pages of Fanfare magazine (May/June, 2009 issue). Simmons says, "... he has managed to orate musical settings that a.) bear no resemblance whatsoever to Dylan's music; b.) capture the spirit and meaning of the text, and do so with remarkable imagination; and c.) for a satisfying song cycle that meets the standards of serious concert work. It is presumably for reasons such as these that this work won the most recent Grammy Award for Best New Classical Composition - the third such award Corigliano has received." Hila Plitmann is the "Amplified Soprano" for Mr. Tambourine Man as it was recorded in its later orchestrated version at Kleinhaus Music Hall in Buffalo, New York. JoAnn Falletta directs the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.
Sunday, july 18tH: Haydn, Die Feuersbrunst/Orff, Carmina Burana. Beginning in 1970s with the PHILIPS recording project under the direction of Antal Dorati, the operas of Josef Haydn have appeared more frequently on disc. Whether in LP or CD format I have broadcast as many of them as I have come across over the decades. Haydn wrote his operas primarily for performance in the private theater of his patron the Hungarian Prince Eszterhazy. The Eszterhaza palace complex included an elaborate, large-scale marionette theater. For the sophisticated marionette shows Haydn was expected to provide instrumental and vocal music. The scores of Haydn's puppet singspiels have been largely lost. One of only two such surviving works that can be reconstructed for modern performance is Die Feuersbrunst, oder das abgebrannte Haus ("The Conflagration, or the House that Burned Down," 1776 - 77). The authenticity of some of its music is in doubt. Haydn's pupil Ignaz Pleyel seems to have composed at least part of its overture, and the master may have borrowed or reworked some numbers by other composers making this work something of a pastiche. This sort of Singspiel doesn't aspire to the majesty of Mozart's "Magic Flute." It's a simple comic opera that in modern media terms would translate into one of those Walt Disney feature-length animation movies with plenty of songs in the soundtrack. Unlike Disney, however, the Feuersbrunst comedy has a lowbrow sexual element. The reconstruct of Die Feuersbrunst that conductor Frank von Koten recorded with his musical forces in 1992 has omitted all of the spoken word dialogue in German language. He directed what is credited as the "Eszterhazy Orchestra" with an unnamed chorus and identified vocal soloists. This recording, made in the Netherlands, was taken up on one CD into the Dutch label Brilliant Classics 150 CD boxed set "The Haydn Edition," issued in 2008 in anticipation of the bicentennial of Haydn's death in 2009. You've already heard other recordings of Haydn's operas and sacred choral works on this program, also derived from this Brilliant Classics compendium.
From obscure Haydn we pass on to one of the most popular secular choral works of the twentieth century: Carl Orff's Carmina Burana (1936). The Latin songs called Carmina were preserved in a medieval manuscript found in a Benedictine monastery known as Benedikt-Beuern or Burana in the Bavarian Alps. The songs may be in the official language of the Holy Church, but they are surely secular - one might more accurately say profane, or even bawdy. Orff's modern musical approach to the medieval lyrics emphasizes a barbaric simplicity. He was imitating Stravinsky's Rite of Spring or Les Noces. His cantata has sometimes been staged with costuming. The music is so naturally applicable to acted-out interpretation that it made its way into film and television and has served as a model of what movie soundtrack music should be. We hear it today as it was recorded live in performance at the Barbican Centre in London 2007. Richard Hickox conducts the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus. This recording for the British Chandos label was among the last Hickox ever made. He died suddenly at the age of 60 on November 23, 2008.
Sunday, july 25th: Gilbert and Sullivan,Utopia, Limited. G & S operettas always figure in my summertime programming mix. Here's one I bet you've never heard before! In 2001 Newport Classic released the first complete recording of Utopia, Limited (1893). I say complete because it includes all of Gilbert's witty spoken dialogue. With something unfamiliar like this, as a listener you really need to hear the dialogue to understand what's going on.The only other previous recording ofUtopia, Limited was a truly fine one from the early stereo LP era, with the original D'Oyly Carte Opera Company performing, but it lacks the dialogue. I broadcast those old London ffrr vinyl discs on Sunday, July 26, 1987. The Newport recording was made with an American company, Ohio Light Opera. Writing in Fanfare magazine (July/August, 2001) reviewer James Camner attests, "the whole cast of Newport'sUtopia, Limited is outstanding, their English diction so crisp and clean that it is hardly necessary to consult the libretto... Heartfelt thanks must go out from all the Savoyard's of the Ohio Light Opera, the director John Stuart and to the recording producer John Ostendorf." I last broadcast the Newport Classic recording on Sunday, July 7, 2002.
SUNDAY, AUGUST 1ST:Maconchy, The Sofa, The Departure/ Shawn, The Music Teacher. The focus this Sunday is on contemporary British and American opera. British composer Elizabeth Maconchy (1907 - 94) left us a triptych of one act chamber operas, two of which were recorded in 2007 from Sadler's Wells productions in London. The Sofa (1959) and The Departure (1962) were released on a single Chandos CD in 2009. The singers and players of Independent Opera of Sadler's Wells are directed by Dominic Wheeler. The Sofa is a romantic comedy about a hedonistic young man upon whom a curse is imposed: he must become the sofa on which he has seduced various women, the curse to be lifted only when another unmarried couple fornicates upon this piece of furniture. The Departure is a nostalgic ghost story. It deals with a woman who longs to be reunited with her husband, who has recently died in an automobile crash. Her wish is granted, but only for a brief stopover for her departed life partner's spirit. Writing about this Chandos in Fanfare magazine (July/August, 2009 issue) reviewer Colin Clarke states, "the recording is exemplary... urgently recommended..."
The Shawn brothers, Allen and Wallace, are pillars of the contemporary lyric theater scene in New York City. They have been collaborating on theater projects since their childhood. It was composer Allen Shawn (b. 1948) who wrote the music forThe Music Teacher, setting the libretto provided by his playwright brother. They began collaborating on this particular project in 1982, but the opera had to wait until 2006 for its premiere production by the New Opera Group in NYC. Like Monachy's operas, Shawn's The Music Teacher is on a chamber scale: four singers, a dozen speaking voices, and an ensemble of ten instrumentalists. This is an opera-within-an-opera. The external portion of it is a scene from the private side of the life of a conservatory professor of music. He has a brief sexual affair with a young female singing student. The outside part has spoken word dialogue. The anterior portion of the opera is entirely sung to a bizarre meat-grinder processed score of intertwined music styles, some contemporary, some historical. The setting is entirely classical - a sendup perhaps of the opera composer Gluck and the 18th century's favorite librettist Metastasio. The music teacher of the title purportedly composed the inner opera and the student singer performs in it. The Music Teacher comes to us on a single Bridge silver disc released in 2008.
Sunday, AUGUST 8TH: Grey, Enemy Slayer/ Glass, Itaipu/ Castelnuovo – Tedesco, Platero y Yo. Variety is the spice of life, so they say, and variety is the verysalsa of lyric theater programming this afternoon when I present three works, one each reflecting upon native American, South American, and Hispanic traditions. First comesEnemy Slayer: Navajo Oratorio (2007), the first such work in music history to set forth the creation myth of an indigenous North American people. Composer Mark Grey (b. 1967) is not Native American himself, but he teamed up with Navajo poet Laura Tohe, who provided him with English language text for Enemy Slayer. The Navajo people have a profound understanding of how war traumatizes the human psyche. Enemy Slayer is intended as an outreach from them to help heal the emotional wounds of war weary combatants throughout the world. Laura Tohe is a professor at Arizona State University. It was at Symphony Hall in Phoenix, Arizona that the Enemy Slayer was recorded for Naxos Records in 2008. Michael Christie directs the Phoenix Symphony and Phoenix Symphony Chorus, with baritone soloist Scott Hendricks.
America's leading minimalist composer Philip Glass was commissioned in 1989 to provide choral music to celebrate the construction of the Itaipu hydroelectric dam, situated over the Parana River on the border between Brazil and Paraguay. The Itaipu choral songs constitute the second feature of the afternoon. Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus premiered Itaipu, which was recorded for issue through Philip Glass' own Orange Mountain record label. As my third offering you'll hear recitations of some delightful Spanish-language poems for which Italian composer Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (1891 - 1968) supplied musical accompaniment. Spanish-speaking folk of the world over have read to their children the poems in the collection Platero y Yo by Juan Ramon Jimenez (1881 - 1958), a Nobel Prize Laureate in literature. The poet imagines a series of conversations with a savvy donkey named Platero. Moni Oradia is the narrator in a Delos recording of "Platero and I." Backing him on guitar is Emanuele Segre. Castelnuovo-Tedesco chose 28 out of the 138 poems in the collection for musical treatment. Since Platero dies at the end of the series, Segre eulogizes him with the composer's transcription for guitar of Ravel's well-known "Pavane for a Dead Princess." Delos issued Platero y Yo on a single silver disc in 2009.
Sunday, AUGUST 15TH: Cimarosa, Il Matrimonio Segreto. Italianopera buffa always figures in my summertime programming. Domenico Cimarosa (1749 - 1801) was one of the most prolific composers of Neapolitan-style comic opera. (He wrote more than fifty of them.) Il Matrimonio Segreto (1792) is a model of the genre. Although Mozart and Rossini overshadow him today, the Viennese public at the time liked his "Secret Marriage" better than Mozart's Cosi Fan Tutte. The Austrian emperor Leopold II liked Cimarosa's opera so much he commanded an entire second performance of it on the night of its premiere. The source of Il Matrimonio Segreto lies in an English comedy that played at London's Drury Lane Theatre in 1776. Cimarosa's musical treatment of it continues to have appeal because of the beautiful melodies he wrote. The last time I aired this opera buffa masterpiece was way back on Sunday, April 21, 1985, when I presented a 1977 Deutsche Gramophon LP recording starring baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, with Daniel Barenboim conducting the English Chamber Orchestra. Now, a quarter of a century later, you get to hear and even older 1968 three LP set issued through the Italian Cetra label initially and released stateside through Everest Records. Manno Wolf-Ferrari conducts the orchestra and chorus of the Magg Musicale Fiorentino. A cast of stellar Italian singers of the mid-twentieth century are featured: bass Sesto Bruscantini as Geronimo, the wealthy merchant. Another basso Antonio Cassinelli is heard as Count Robinson, an English Milord taken straight from David Garrick's play. Soprano Ornella Rovero is Elisetta, the merchant elder daughter, who is promised in marriage to the count. Then there's soprano Alda Noni, who portrays Carolina, the younger daughter who is secretly married to the merchant young clerk Paolino, sung by tenor Cesare Valetti.
Sunday, AUGUST 22ND: Lehar, Giuditta. This is technically an operetta, but it was Lehar's closest attempt at serious opera. The story of Giuditta the femme fatale is no comedy, and the ending is sad. Giuditta was the finale for Lehar's career as a composer. Its score contains some of his most seductively beautiful melodies. This work was the last glorious gasp of that sentimental Viennese genre of lyric theater. Soprano Edda Moser is an absolutely stunning Giuditta in the 1983 EMI recording, with Vienna's operetta specialist Willi Boskovsky directing The Munich Radio Orchestra and Munich Concert Choir. Boskovsky played first desk violin in the original Vienna State Opera production under the composer's own hand in 1934. I have broadcast the same two LP EMI German Elektrola derived set three times before at this time of year in 1988, 1995, and 2003.
Sunday, AUGUST 29TH: Delius, Irmelin. I always reserve the last Sunday in August for one of the operas of Friedrick Delius (1856 - 1934), who has been called "the English Debussy." I do so because the music of Delius is so evocative of the lazy hazy end of summertime. Longtime readers of our Program Guide may remember my four-part series on the seven operas of Delius and the attributes of his style, which appeared in the Guide in 1988 - 89. This Sunday we commence a fifth cycle of broadcasts of all his operas with his first one Irmelin (1892). It's his single longest musical composition: a gorgeous fairytale of an opera with a libretto by the composer himself, based partly on Hans Christian Anderson's version of the medieval romance of the Princess and the Swineherd. Irmelin never saw the stage in Delius' lifetime. A pity too, since composers Edvard Grieg and Andre Messager praise the music. In 1953 Delius' friend and promoter Sir Thomas Beecham conducted an amateur performance of Irmelin which went unrecorded. In December, 1984 it was given a concert performance from the studios of the BBC Third Programme. The tapes of that broadcast were issued under BBC's Artium label, first on LP, then in CD format. I aired the three LP set way back in 1986, and the two CD issue three times before in 1990, 1998, and 2005. Norman del Mar directs the BBC Concert Orchestra and BBC Singers. A world premiere digital recording.
Many of the featured recordings in this two month period of programming came out of my own collection of Opera on CD and LP: the "authentic" 1935 version of Porgy and Bess. Gilbert and Sullivan's Utopia, Limited, Lehar's Giuditta, and Delius' Irmelin. Thanks to Rob Meehan a collector who specializes in the alternative musics of the twentieth and twenty first centuries, for the loan for broadcast of his Bridge CD of Allen Shaw's The Music Teacher. The rest of what you'll hear in July and August is derived from our stations ever-growing library of recorded classical music. Again I'm grateful for the assistance of Vickie Hadge of Virtually Done by Vickie for the preparation of these notes for cyber publication.

He looked like he was in dire straits.- Many would prefer 'as if he was in die straits'
This is Max- You've changed tense here to the present, which doesn't really fit IMO
You would not believe he was a clerk in a small store, because he never tried to make much more money.- Why wouldn't I believe this? This sentence doesn't really follow to me. If he's melancholic and unambitious, then it wouldn't surprise me.
Nothing can change him. He didn't dislike rich,- Nothing could... He didn't dislike wealth
Paragraph2- You repeat 'as usual' in the first line
He woke up soon,- slightly unclear as later on we learn that it was the oppsite case and he was daydreaming. You might want to rephrase this
He woke up soon,- a strange sentence that some might not like, but I think it works in the context.
still with dire straits- in

I was parsing Ebay looking for a Rusty figurine from Serie 1 (only one I don't have …) when I found what look like new Android Dead Zebra figurines :
They looked like real ones but as I never heard of them, I sent a tweet to @DeadZebra to know if there were fakes or new models and here is what he tweeted 10 minutes later :
So it seems that they are real ones and that they are going to be available soon ! I don't know if these are the only models or if there is going to be more. I don't know either if they are part of the Serie 3 … Anyway as soon as I have more information I'll update this post.
Update : @DeadZebra just gave more information these models. The edition is called Big Box and is going to be sold by major retailers starting with UO (Urban Outfitter I think …), then Barnes & Noble, Frys, …
It seems they are already available in some shops. And I don't have a price yet … if anybody find it :]

Breeding... don't think so...
It's much safer to say that they will seal her...
After all they had that miko with two colored eyes...
Or use her against the third one... like let the two kill each other...

about Shizuku
#1 As a Shizuku fan, I had to say something for her honor. ^^ Actually she is the first one who gave a chance to use "Light Ferry". When Yuuto decided to go to save Himari, Shizuku respected his decision and gave him a stick.
Also, She is even the first one who trained him. Even though he didn't want to be demon-slayer, Yuuto wanted power to protect his friends, like he said in front of other demon-slayers later. He was not that foolish as you think.
Anyway, even though the first training scene ended with some stupid boobie scenes, he could use the "Light Ferry" later whenever he want to use it. Again, It's all Shizuku's contribution.
In fact, everyone was just naive as hell until Tama appeared. See chapter 27. Himari said "Someday, It will be you who'll have to make the decision to abandon this peaceful life or not. For now, the best thing for you to do is enjoy this life as much as possible." How foolish. She didn't even inform many things to him to make a decision. She didn't even said about "Light ferry" to him until Shizuku do it. And didn't said about her another mission (Training Yuuto) she got from Yuuto's grandfather until Tama appeared and everything started to be serious. If someone have to be blamed, It's Himari.
Shizuku was just fine. What she didn't want is not that Yuuto gets power to protect his friends. She may wanted him to not be a demon-slayer. But when he decided to be it, she just respected his decision again. You may think that she was too naive. but nobody can expect Tama would come that time, If they are not Yakouin Hitsugi.

#1 Again, Shizuku never have been provoked by his training. But it's true that it could provoke her comrades... At least in those days.
Thankfully Kagetsuki was not so inconsiderate. Now he is even trying to attract helpers for Yuuto. See chapter 53. He aleady brought Ageha and Sasa. I expected that they would be appear during the fight like Gandalf but it didn't happen. But they will be helpful someday.
So I still can't think the coexistence is impossible. The problem is bad guys like Tama and SD. When they appear, good ayakashies and humans can cooperate. I hope we can see it soon.

Kuesu is the kind of character that I like a lot, straightforward, to the point and does not hold back her feelings unlike a certain main character who is just there for annoyance(IMO) :P, for clarification the only human female in Yuutos harem.

She does get on my nerves a lot too, it seems like she's just there for the annoyance factor to stop anyone from getting close to Yuuto. If she likes Yuuto that much then instead of stopping all the other girls shouldn't she just make a move herself and make Yuuto not think about anyone except her? At least Himari, Kuesu the tea maid and Shizaku actively go after him.

In Ringo's case, there's two factors that make her be as tsundere as she is: first, the classic childhood friend syndrome, better known as "I like him but we're just childhood friends, and no one else can have him either"... and then there's the fact that all the ones actively pursuing him have one form of power or another, while Ringo is literally the only normal human in the series

'January Joiner' comes to Long Wharf
It's the one New Year's resolution that a lot of people keep -- for a few weeks. Doing something about shedding that excess weight you've been meaning to get rid of all year. In January, gym parking lots are full and lines form at all of the weight machines, as crowds of new clients jam health clubs around the country.
So the timing couldn't be more right for Laura Jacqmin's play "January Joiner," which is getting its world premiere at Long Wharf Theatre in New Haven, starting Wednesday, Jan. 9.
The "horror comedy" follows two overweight sisters to an upscale Florida spa called "Evolve," where people "pay a lot of money to have a weight-loss experience."
The play digs deep into the lives and thoughts of the overweight clients as well as the slender staff, examining what's lurking under the surface of bodies we are all too quick to judge.
"The audience is the one who will make it political," Jacqmin said of the way she has tried to leave any "messages" in her play to each individual theatergoer.
"The act of being fat is one of those things everyone seems to feel free to comment on, but they (couch it) as concern. `It's about his health,' " the playwright said, quoting critics who have been commenting on New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's weight and whether or not it would preclude him from serving as president.
The judgment of other people's weight has escalated in recent years, the playwright believes.
"It might be related to the 24-hour news cycle and the desperate need to have an opinion about everything. ... There's been a rejection of nuance," Jacqmin added of the rush to judge the way other people look.
The emergence of Lena Dunham and her hit HBO series "Girls" has also led to a wave of articles and columns about the writer-star's seeming absence of hang-ups about her un-model-like body.
"We are starting to see different types of bodies (on television) and seeing that a person is not just a body," she said.
"It's such a complicated issue," Jacqmin said of weight and weight loss.
"When people want to change themselves, you get into identity issues," she added of overweight individuals who think their whole lives will change if only they drop those excess pounds.
Eric Ting, the associate artistic director of Long Wharf and who is staging "January Joiner," said in a separate interview that Jacqmin has been on the New Haven theater's "radar for a number of years."
"We were looking for a great play for this (slot in the 2012-13 season) and this one just landed on my desk. I was so struck by the comedy and the deep humanism," Ting said of the script.
The director is excited by the mix of comedy and horror in "January Joiner" and some of its surreal production elements, such as a talking vending machine that is always tempting the overweight spa clients.
"The challenges are what make a play interesting to work on. And there is no greater power (in the theater) than getting an audience to suspend its disbelief. Even if a play (reads like) the most unstageable thing in the world, if it speaks to me, I know I can find a way to do it," Ting said.

HUMBLE, Texas - The Lipscomb Bisons golf team finished 10th in the Rice Intercollegiate on Tuesday to close out the first tournament of the spring.
The Bisons shot a combined three-round total of 907 (+43) at the Westwood Golf Club near Houston, Texas.
"It is really our first three days in a row we have been able to play golf since November," Lipscomb coach Will Brewer said. "Everyone is a little rusty. They lacked confidence around the greens and didn't chip the ball very well.
"The wind was blowing today. When you haven't played a lot of golf lately with the wind, you lose confidence in your swing. But I think we had a great team session today after the event. We are learning how to process better and get stronger mentally and physically. I am not pleased with this weekend by any means. We will get better from this."
Dowling Armstrong and Caston Roberts tied for the team lead after firing a 223 (plus-7). They each finished tied for 18th in an 84-man field.
Armstrong was the most consistent player for Lipscomb, carding rounds of 74-74-75. Roberts shot the low round of the week for the Purple and Gold with an opening round 70. He then shot 76-77 on the final 36 holes.
"Caston and Dowling played pretty well," Brewer said. "But they each had a triple-bogey on a par-3. It is just one shot here and one shot there. If you take away a couple of bad holes from each of them, they are at even-par."
Sydney Chung played the tournament at 14-over par with a three-round total of 230. The freshman fired his lowest round of the week on Tuesday with a 75. He shot 76-79 on Monday. Chung finished 41st.
Stoney Crouch opened the Rice Intercollegiate with a 74 in round one, before shooting 79-78 over the last two rounds. Crouch finished 45th at 15-over par (231).
Mikey Feher, the team's stroke leader, played three of his highest scoring rounds in his Lipscomb career. Feher opened with an 83-82 on Monday, following that up with a 78 Tuesday. He played the 54-hole tournament at 27-over par (243) and finished 80th.
"I am somewhat disappointed no one stepped up and took charge this week," Brewer said. "This bunch is competitive, but we need to step it up next week."
The Bisons had some trouble on par-3s, finishing at (plus-12) for the week.
"We had a couple of triple bogeys that hurt," Brewer said. "We are young and they just didn't make smart decisions. I was very pleased with the effort and attitude though. We are going to be better at Pepperdine next week because we played this tournament.
"I think they realize that 90 percent of the time down here they played well. It is that 10 percent of the time where they struggled. It is one shot, one decision and one missed putt here and there and we have to learn from those mistakes."
University of Texas San Antonio was crowned the tournament champions with a three-day total of 875 (plus-11). Jamison Randall of Old Dominion took home the medalist after finishing with a five-under par 211 (72-70-69).
The Bisons return to the links on Monday Feb. 24 at the Jones Invitational hosted by Pepperdine University in Somis, Calif.

Amazing that
"Minor Threat" was only recently added.
Also, let's look at this: 'Ian Watkins was a co-founder of Pontypridd rock band Lostprophets in 1997'.
Was. WAS.
Of course he'll be sacked from the band, because even if he's innocent, this will ruin him and Lostprophets will be thought of as 'that paedo band'.
So, IF he is a nonce, do you reckon the other members of Lostprophets knew, but didn't say anything? And if he's sacked, do you reckon it'll be sort of a case of him being thrown to the lions in an effort to save their arses?
Imagine being a Lostprophets fan today. Imagine being a Lostprophets fan at all.

The charges almost certainly refer to stuff that took place exclusively on the internet
and don't refer to him actually raping or attempting to rape a child. That's not to defend him in any way, I just mean that it's unlikely he's some sort of prolific Saville-esque peado, the wording seems to imply some sort of internet grooming. I'm conflicted- it's indescribably wrong, but at the same time I'm not in the "burn the peados" camp. If he's attracted to children then he clearly has mental health issues, it's just sad he didn't get help earlier. Again, I'm not defending him, it's just an awful situation, his life as he knows it is over. I suppose people will say "he should have thought of that before he conspired to have sex with children", and that's true too, I'm just not sure how much control people have over desires like that. Hmm.
It's a fetish surely?
like feet or pissing or whatever, you can't help what you're attracted to, or I'm sure most people attracted to children would, I'm not excusing it, clearly, it causes damage, but I wouldn't call it a 'mental health' issue.JaguarPirate this'd this
- andyvine, spiritofjazz, calumlynn, PickledOeuf, and rainmaker this'd this
Not this, but there's a point in there somewhere.
It's not a fetish like feet or pissing, because those are generally speaking fetishes which are acted out by consenting adults - or at least can be. The realisation of a sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children is rape.
However I agree that calling it a 'mental illness' is possibly going too far the other way. While the idea of an adult having sex with a young child is abhorrent to the vast majority and a fundamentally abusive pursuit, I think the aggressive knee-jerk reaction of anyone contemplating the idea of a genuine romantic fixation with children is more social than anything else. Although I obviously wouldn't seek to draw comparisons in any other terms, it's worth remembering that homosexuality was considered a mental illness not all that long ago.
I'm pretty sure there's a balance to be struck between dismissing it as a mere foible, and the whole idea that all paedophiles are violent monsters whose passions are bent into some caricature of humanity to ratify the moral anxiety it stirs up in the rest of us.
Also, there are shades of grey here y'know
You see cases of teachers falling in love with their 15 and 16 year old pupils and you think, that's not inconceivable. Morally dubious to say the least, but not inconceivable. By that age people have personalities and sexual bodies and at least a degree of autonomy and whatnot.
Conspiring to rape a one year old baby is not comparable.
God, this is horrible :(
Well said, agree with pretty much all of that
though you have to remember that teachers falling in love with 15-16 year old students isn't pedophillia at all, it's natural to be attracted to post-pubescent people, age of consent is an arbitrary distinction which varies between cultures and countries, as a way of trying to anticipate when a person has sexual agency. For example, in Spain the age of consent is 13. Though with a teacher/pupil situation it's a bit different because the teacher has a duty of care.automatik this'd this
Would a 19 year old man sleeping with a 15 year old girl not technically/legally be recognised as a paedophile in the UK though, assuming charges were brought?
certainly would be classified as statuatory rape
even if consensual, right?
yeah, you're right
it would be statutory rape, and very much illegal. But paedophillia isn't a legal term, it refers to an attraction to pre-pubescent children, so i guess is more of a medical term? Usually, when referring to instances of sex with teenagers under the age of consent, it's only tabloid newspapers that refer to the perpetrators as paedophiles.
I mean, as far as I know, no-one gets convicted of being a paedophile anyway, they get convicted of a certain charge eg. sex acts with a minor under 13 etc. So there isn't really such thing as being legally recognised as a peado, peadophile is just a term applied to adults who are sexually attracted to children. Although the term is meant to address children in a biological sense ie pre-pubescent, it's often incorrectly used to refer to children in a societal sense, potentially meaning anyone under the age of 18, which is how those teacher/pupil relationships end up with 'Peado Scum'-type articles in the Mail.areyouarealdoctor this'd this

Interesting that
every news article seems to have a picture of him looking either a bit ropey or a bit weird. I'd imagine those pictures are the exception rather than the rule and they're going out of their way for them.
As for the story itself it really seems insane. He was always the tee-total, clean cut kid until recently. Apparently the band staged an intervention the other year when he started acting strange and doing drugs. I read an interview of him laughing it off at the time but it must have been a very slippery slope from there to here.
Imagine what he's going through now, though. From pretty powerful and well off to the lowest of the low in 24 hours. Christmas in prison and a laughing stock. Even if he's proved innocent his life is over.

I don't buy all this 'even if he's innocent' stuff
If it's all a load of horsecock then it'll come out at the trial. Remember the rape allegations against the Hamiltons? Or the weirdo landlord of that girl in Bristol what was murdered?
I think if it turns out he's innocent then most people will feel a lot of sympathy for him.
or he will have killed himself before or after he is proved innoncent
due to the effects it will have on his life, as has happened many times in similar cases (to less famous people, i guess)Mehodor this'd this
he loos a posing cunt in every picture taken
he had sex with my friend "allegedly"
she was 16. He would've been around 26 at the time. And filmed it. This news does not surprise me.
So he filmed himself having sex with your 16 year old friend
therefore the news that he was conspiring to rape a baby doesn't surprise you? Blimey.

PORTLAND — The American Civil Liberties Union asked an Oregon federal court judge on Wednesday to review the constitutionality of the federal government's use of warrantless subpoenas.
The request came during oral arguments before U.S. District Court Judge Alcer Haggerty in U.S. District Court in Portland over the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration's demand to search the records of a state pharmaceutical monitoring database.
The state of Oregon launched the database, the Oregon Prescription Monitoring Program, in 2011 in the hopes of tracking prescriptions and identifying abuse. Within a year, the DEA sought information from the database for drug investigations. Four patients and a doctor intervened, saying they were concerned their records could also be accessed.
The state objected, saying the records were private, but a U.S. magistrate judge found that the federal law trumped state law. The state was ordered to turn over the records. The state sued, and the ACLU joined them. The DEA contends that the warrantless subpoenas, called administrative subpoenas, are a critical investigative tool. The ACLU responds that such searches violate patients' Fourth Amendment rights to be free from illegal searches and seizures.
"The fact people are forced to choose between protecting their health and protecting their privacy is offensive, and it's wrong," said ACLU attorney Nathan Freed Wessler.
Congress authorized the U.S. Attorney General to issue administrative subpoenas in any investigation related to controlled substances, a responsibility delegated to the DEA. As it stands now, the DEA can request patient records from a pharmacy and, should the pharmacist refuse, seek a judge to issue a court order demanding their release.
But instead of a warrant based on probable cause, the DEA need only show in that instance that what they're seeking is "material and relevant," a lower standard of proof.
The DEA says Haggerty should toss the case because the ACLU and the state of Oregon failed to show that the DEA ever used an administrative subpoena to obtain specific prescription medical information, and to assert that they will is "purely speculative."
"They have no evidence that the DEA might access those records at some future time, we don't know," Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin Danielson told Haggerty.
Even if the court does allow the suit to proceed, federal attorneys wrote in a memo, the patients and the doctor "do not have a reasonable expectation of privacy interest in their prescription information that is protected by the Fourth Amendment."
Haggerty said Wednesday he would rule "fairly soon."

No. 8 Iowa State loses 2nd straight after 14-0 start, 77-70 to No. 15 Kansas
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State can shoot it with the best of them, as the Cyclones have shown many times this season.
But when those shots don't fall, Iowa State can struggle. Factor in an opponent that's long and tall and it results in a game like the Cyclones endured against Kansas.
No. 15 Kansas got a career-high 23 points from Naadir Tharpe and overwhelmed No. 8 Iowa State on the boards in a 77-70 victory Monday night.
Iowa State shot an icy 31 percent from field and missed 21 of 25 3-point shots. Then there was the matter of being outrebounded 53-36.
"The best shooters in the world have nights like this," Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg said. "It's a tough loss. They're long, athletic, they play extremely hard and they're as well coached as any team in the nation. We couldn't have had much worse of an offensive night and we still had a chance to win."
Freshman Andrew Wiggins had 17 points and a season-high 19 rebounds for Kansas (12-4, 3-0 Big 12), which handed the Cyclones (14-2, 2-2) their second straight loss after a school-record 14-0 start.
Kansas broke a 36-36 halftime tie with a 16-5 run and led the rest of the way.
"We missed a couple, got our shot blocked a few times, missed some open shots," Hoiberg said. "I thought that affected us and that's when they got up 11 on us right away. You can't have stretches like that against a team like Kansas because they'll make you pay in a big way."
The Jayhawks certainly made Iowa State pay.
Iowa State missed its first eight shots of the second half and 12 of its first 13, but somehow managed to get within five points late in the game. But the Jayhawks made enough free throws and the Cyclones missed enough shots for Kansas to hold on.
Seven-foot freshman Joel Embiid finished with 16 points and nine rebounds for the Jayhawks, who earned perhaps their most impressive win of the season. Embiid blocked five shots and altered numerous others.
Iowa State's top two inside players, Georges Niang and Melvin Ejim, were a combined 10 for 33 from the field, with Niang going 0 for 9 from 3-point range. One of those misses came when Embiid ventured outside to swat it away.
DeAndre Kane, who sprained an ankle in a loss at Oklahoma on Saturday, had 21 points for Iowa State, which lost for the 17th time in 18 games against Kansas. Ejim finished with 15 points and Niang, a miserable 4-for-20 from the field, scored 11.
"I think guys got good looks out there. We just didn't knock them down," Kane said. "We'll get back in the gym and we'll get some shots up and we'll get out of the shooting slump we're in."
Kane, who led the Big 12 with 22.7 points, 6.3 assists and 3.3 steals through three league games, responded well enough to around the clock treatment on his left ankle that he was able to start.
It didn't provide the early boost the Cyclones needed.
Kansas took a 15-4 lead less than 5 minutes in. But the Cyclones fought their way back to tie the game at 36-all on Kane's 3 over Embiid at the halftime buzzer.
The Jayhawks started the second half the way they did the first. Perry Ellis extended their lead to 52-41 with a slam with 13:32 left, and Embiid wrapped two baskets around a blocked shot as Kansas went ahead 64-53.
Kane could have made it a one-possession game with under a minute left, but he missed a contested layup and Tharpe answered with two free throws.
Kansas committed 24 turnovers, but it survived by shooting 49 percent from the field and dominating the glass.
"We handled the ball miserably. Looked like a third grade team out there offensively sometimes taking care of the ball. But we made up for it by being pretty good on the glass. It was a great win," Kansas coach Bill Self said.
Hoiberg called Iowa State "a rhythm team and when we get in that rhythm, we're a tough team to stop. We just never really found it tonight."
As for all those Kansas rebounds, Hoiberg noted: "We missed a lot of shots. There were a lot of rebounds for them to get."

Access issues
As of 24 September 2012, Thys (De Pakhuys owner) has said that climbers are not welcome at the Riethuis area and that the land owner will be very unhappy to find you there.
This land is owned by Hermanus Visser. He is allowing climbing on his land provided that people don't bother him at his house in the trees above the boulders. The area will be closed if the following rules are disobeyed:
- Do not enter without paying the required entry fees.
- Do not litter (e.g. cigarette butts, finger tape).
- Do not damage or remove vegetation.
- Do not wander off existing paths.
- Do not feed wild animals.
- Do not bolt without the land owner's permission.
- Bury any toilet paper etc. in a deep hole (>10cm).
How to get there
Go over Pakhuys Pass as if going to De Pakhuys, but continue past the turn-off on the right to De Pakhuys. Exactly 1.3km down the road there will be a wire gate on your left - go through it (close it again if it was closed), drive 100m and park. Follow the path past the houses to the boulders (2 min walk). The boulders are on the slope below the nek with trees.

I'm planning on using this rule for my next game, but I'd like to know what other peoples think about it first. I'll post the simplified version first, so it will be easier to understand. Once everyone had a chance to digest it (and if it's not declared "compleatly broken"), I'll post the advance version.
This is meant only for size 3 or greater ranged weapon.
1.Choose a target. You can check the range to the target, but can also
choose a target that is out of range. If you already have a target,
you can decide to change it now. If your gunner has more then one
weapon it can use, choose your weapon as well.
2.Make a skill roll for the gunner. Add this roll to any previous roll made
since you chose your current target (and weapon) to get your total
skill roll.
(ie: if you targeted the big tank last round, you would add this
round's skill roll to the one made last round.)
3.If the total skill roll is equal or greater then the weapon's use rating,
you can fire the weapon! Until you change target, the weapon is
considered use 3. If the target is out of range at this time, you can
continue to target it and hope it gets closer (the artillery rule doesn't
increase a weapon's range).
So, what do you think?

Mayor's Office
Keep Lincoln and Lancaster County Beautiful (KLLCB) is seeking volunteer groups to help with the 2012 "No Coast Coastal Cleanup" at area lakes. Groups will be asked to select a Lancaster County lake and conduct a cleanup by Sunday, October 14. The effort is part of the 2012 International Coastal Cleanup, a world-wide volunteer project designed to remove trash from ocean beaches, lake shores, river sides and other waterways.
Friends and families, sports teams, scouts, youth groups, churches and others are asked to consider this volunteer opportunity. Both shoreline and lakeside litter pickup are encouraged, so groups with boats, canoes and kayaks are welcome to help reach more inaccessible areas.
Groups will be asked to tally each type of trash collected, as part of an effort to add to the worldwide marine debris database maintained by the Ocean Conservancy. KLLCB will provide data cards and trash bags. Park permits are required at State recreation areas.
"Litter cleanup is important for local lakes and streams and for the oceans they feed," said Laurel Erickson, KLLCB. "Up to 80 percent of trash in the ocean starts out on land, but is blown by the wind into waterways. As it makes its way to the ocean, it causes harm along the way by entangling wildlife. The trash also could be eaten by aquatic animals or birds."
During last year's Lancaster County cleanup, volunteers picked up litter at 10 area lakes. In addition to plastic bags, beverage bottles and cigarette butts, volunteers found nets, fishing line, bait containers, batteries, plywood, propane bottles, tires, beer kegs, lawn chairs and car parts.
To participate, contact KLLCB at 402-441-8035 or firstname.lastname@example.com. KLLCB is a program of the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department. It receives funding from the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality.
