Sammus (LP Release), Sad13, Mr. McBean, No-Comply
Sammus and Sad13 (of Speedy Ortiz) hit the road for their 'Weekend Warrior Princess Tour', in celebration of Sammus' debut LP on Don Giovanni Records
Interview With Sammus
I caught up with Enongo Lumumba-Kasongo, better know as Sammus, in anticipation of her upcoming release show for her latest EP, "Pieces In Space". The album will be her first release with Don Giovanni Records and is available for purchase on October 28th. Produced entirely by Sammus, "Pieces In Space" features: Jean Grae, Homeboy Sandman, Open Mike Eagle, and Latasha Alcindor, as well as label-mate, Izzy True. Besides her career as a musician, Sammus is working towards a PhD in Science and Technology studies at Cornell, serves on the Board of Trustees at Ithaca Underground, and is a founding member of Black Lives Matter Ithaca, among other things.
Evan: Sammus, you've mentioned early memories of producing music on the MTV Music Generator, which was a popular game for PlayStation. Recently, you've stated that producing your own instrumentals has been critical in your music. What impact do you think video games have had on your production style?
Sammus: Video game music has informed my production style primarily in that I see a piece of production as more than just background music for vocals. I believe a beat should be able to stand on its own as an enjoyable and engaging piece of music. So I always try to make my beats dynamic whether it's incorporating a variety of melodic flourishes or subtle changes that can only be heard on headphones. I want my beats to paint pictures just like some of my favorite video game tracks have done for me.
Evan: Alex Trebek recently caused some controversy with his comments surrounding nerd-core music. I saw you, along with a few other rappers, recorded a response track. What do you think would cause Trebek to make such comments?
Sammus: I'm not actually sure why Alex Trebek would make the comments he did. It seemed uncharacteristically snarky to call nerd-core music for "losers" but it's pretty obvious to me that he was joking around and I hope that people who listen to the response track recognize that it too was made in jest. I do think his words struck a chord with folks because although I'm ambivalent about using the term "nerdcore" to categorize my catalog, nobody can deny that the genre has produced a rich scene full of artists and incredible supporters who have worked hard to build a space for themselves. Some of my biggest supporters have been people who found me through my more "nerdcore" tracks. I have friends who identify as nerdcore artists that are making a full-time living performing their music across the country. Nerdcore has such a significant following, that for the past several years SXSW has seen fit to give nerdcore musicians an official showcase—So yeah, anybody who took issue with Trebek was probably taking his comments to be a dismissal of a genre that has found a lot of love with a lot of great people.
Evan: You've recently aligned with Don Giovanni, a label specializing in punk music. Are there any areas you draw similarities between Hip-Hop and Punk music/culture?
Sammus: First, I think punk is largely about incorporating and celebrating a kind of sonic rawness in the music. The centrality of rawness as an aesthetic can certainly be found in hip-hop circles, whether in live performances, in recordings, or in the very practice of putting a song together. On a personal level, I believe in utilizing my rawness as a way to engage audience members — I think anybody who has seen me live would agree that I give all of myself to each and every performance.
Additionally, I think that the DIY ethos that is the heart of punk music/culture is just as deeply embedded in underground hip-hop spaces. I never thought of my work as DIY until I became a part of the Ithaca Underground scene. It was then that I began to associate being DIY with the creation of music on one's own terms. I realized that even though the sounds were often different, the values that went into making my music and the punk music I heard at IU shows are very much the same.
Finally and perhaps most importantly, many forms of punk and hip-hop music are rooted in culturally critical political discourse and activism. One need look no further than the powerful messages behind songs from bands like Downtown Boys or punk legend Alice Bag to see the connections with politically-minded hip hop artists. Themes of resistance, cultural pride, and rejecting the status quo have all been integral parts of the definitions of both of these genres/cultures.
Evan: Over recent years you have been very active in integrating Hip-Hop performances into Ithaca Underground shows. Any specific performance(s) come to mind, which you are especially proud of?
Sammus: One performance that was really special emerged out of a collaboration between Ithaca Underground and the CFCU Summer Concert Series hosted by the Downtown Ithaca Alliance. For the first time since the inception of the Summer Concert Series, the Downtown Ithaca Alliance reached out to Ithaca Underground to host the concert on the Wednesday before Grassroots. Although typically this date had been given to an artist performing at Grassroots, both Tatiana Sy, the Concert Series organizer, and Bubba Crumrine from IU decided to prioritize artists who were not going to be on stage at Grassroots. I was so honored to be selected to headline this show—it made me reflect on the lack of opportunities I saw for weird hip hop to flourish when I first moved back to Ithaca in 2011. And when I contrast that with my set at the Concert Series, in which I got to rap in front of so many different Ithaca residents, I realize that I've played a role in changing the kind of music that this town prioritizes. It was exciting to share my raps as well as talk about the importance of Black Lives Matter and Ithaca Underground to me to a captive audience of folks, many of whom may never have seen me otherwise. That moment was really important to me.
Evan: On your single "Weirdo" you speak about being an introvert, however you seem to be involved in many different communities. As a student myself, I'm curious: how do you maintain your mental health while balancing a career in music, working towards your PHD at Cornell, serving on the Board of Trustees at Ithaca Underground, among other things?
Sammus: It's been challenging to keep all these things together because my preference is generally to be on my couch being weird by myself or with my boyfriend. So, I take self-care time where I can find it. For example, I often use my performances as a space to get certain things off my chest. I'll tell the audience how I'm doing —if I had an annoying issue I had to deal with in class or if I'm stressed about the state of things nationally. I also have gotten much better at saying "no" although it might not seem like it. There are quite a few times that I've turned down opportunities because I knew it wasn't in the best interest of my health. A few years ago I took any gig that was offered to me but now I make sure that I have enough time in my schedule and that it's going to add something substantial to my life before I accept. Finally, I would say that sometimes the work itself can be a form of self-care. Yes, meetings can be exhausting, but it's exciting to talk about the future of music in Ithaca with other volunteers and artists or in the context of my work with Black Lives Matter, it's energizing to have conversations and plan actions that will result in a safer world for black people.
Ithaca Underground & Helen Stride are proud to present the release show for Pieces In Space, Sammus's latest EP. Featuring Sammus, Sad13, Kelsey McBean (aka Mr. McBean), and No-Comply. The show takes place this Thursday, October 27th at the Haunt, doors open at 7PM.

Keywords: Condominium
the condo was wonderful and a great location. We truly enjoyed our stay here. I would recommend this condo to anyone. We especially loved the beach chairs that were included.
I stayed here for a long Labor Day vacation with my Mom & teenage daughter. We are regulars in PCB (4x from June - Aug this year) and this was, by far, the best place we have stayed in. Parking is so convenient and safe (especially when traveling with a group of ladies), being able to go straight to the room for parking/resort passes was a treat, and dealing with Mr. Wright was an absolute pleasure! This condo is more than we ever dreamed of with every amenity you could possibly need. The space on the deck overlooking the beautiful ocean is enough to appease any Beach lover but the condo itself made it hard to spend time outside. The rooms are so spacious and you can tell Mr. Wright takes much pride in keeping his 2nd home impeccably clean. The beach chairs were an added bonus that made our trip even more leisurely and the oceanfront pools are incomparable to other places we have stayed. Spending time with my Mother & daughter is always precious, but the accommodations we had really made our trip. Thank you, again, for opening your home to us. The only thing missing was that we didn't get to meet Mr. Wright in person, as it felt like talking to family. We WILL be back!
4 girlfriends and myself spent a wonderful long weekend in Panama City for a beach getaway - when first searching for a condo to rent , the requirements for our stay were fairly specific - I kept returning to viewing this condo. After speaking with Mr. Warren, I felt at ease with pursuing this rental. He was responsive to my inquiries and able to answer my questions. The condo was spacious, decorated very nicely and certainly met my expectations. The washer/dryer was definitely a plus as well as the covered parking. Easy access to the beach was awesome as this was our primary activity. The great location made walking to nearby restaurants and shops convenient. Can't beat the views from the balcony! I would certainly stay in this unit again. Sunrise is a very nice property - so glad Mr. Warren is willing to share his home !!!
We spent five nights in this wonderful condo. It was very clean and well maintained. Warren, the owner, was easy to work with and it was clear that he cared about his home and his customers. The condo is very spacious, especially the bedrooms. We had a pack-and-play in each of the guest rooms for our babies, and they fit great. The location on the 10th floor is perfect, not too high, and not so low that you cannot catch an elevator. The balcony was well maintained, as was the quality deck furniture. The included beach service was easy and convenient. We have stayed at Sunrise before, and love the complex. Very clean, very safe, and easy parking. Thanks Warren for a wonderful trip!
We stayed in this condo for 6 nights. It was great! It was very clean and had a great laundry room. There were 2 separate rooms for my 2 teenagers and they loved that! Love that this condo has parking underneath the building. We greatly enjoyed our stay and will definitely contact Warren Wright again to rent his condo. Also, this is the 1st Fall Break that we have stayed at in Warren's unit and he contacted me personally when I expressed interest in renting from him. Great experience in a beautiful ocean view condo!!!
We stayed here at the Wright's condo for two weeks. We needed lots of down time and that's exactly what we received. The condo had everything we needed and was located on a great spot on the PCB strip. Lots of dining and shopping close to the location. We sat on the deck every morning and wow was it quiet! The ocean was the only thing we heard, but we were able to see stingrays and dolphins play if we got up earlier enough. At night, the sunset from the balcony was amazing. The condo also came with two beach chairs and an umbrella. This was a real blessing as well. The beach was clean and the ocean was the clearest I have ever seen it! Our family loved it! Warren was really easy to work with and I loved that he cared what we thought about it. I actually talked to him by phone twice. And by the way, the 10th floor is PERFECT: not to too low to hear the noise at the pool and not to high to get caught on the elevator stopping on every floor either! We would rent from the Wright's again. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us!!

Does any one have the time and patience to step-by-step me through the process of creating a folder or folders via I-Tunes and port PDF files over from the hard drive to the I-pad device? I successfully dragged some PDF files from my hard drive to the books icon in I-tunes and they showed up on the device in iBooks. However, I will be dealing with scores of files/letters that are presently in folders on the hard drive. Each file (letter/lesson) has its own name. Perhaps 20-30 files are then in a folder categorized by date/year ... eg., 2010 ... 2009. In IBooks, the icons are so small I cannot see the name of individual files. These files really need to be in folders on the device. I was unsuccessful in Itunes in trying to drag the entire folder to the device. I have installed IBooks, IAnnotate (PDF) and GoodReader on the Ipad. If something else is needed, I would gladly go to the store and get it. I am really dead in the water at this point at any attempt to use the I-pad in my class room until I can get my lessons in some semblance of order. Could someone please help Thanks Jer (one half of the jerliz team)
I add PDF files like this go to file > add folder to library > select folder from your hard drive I don't know how this will work for you I have only done three PDF files. There are several apps that are designed just for PDF files you may find more useful for your needs just search the app store under PDF.
Stupid question. Not a computer person but trying. Is drop box a program? Can it be used with documents to go? Sorry if this is a really dumb question trying to learn.
Dropbox is website/computer app that saves your files and syncs changes etc you install on both pc and iPad then drag your folders to the drop box folder on pc. When you open drop box on iPad your files are there for you to use.
What Brenn has said. I didn't continue to expand in that post as there is quite a lengthy thread on here full of dropbox love and tips just a couple of pages down.
I love Dropbox, but there is one big caveat: All of your files are saved to their web servers. If you have Gigabytes of data this can take a long time, it can eat up your bandwidth caps, and it can cost money as Dropbox is free unless you need more than 2GB.
Thats true, but once you've transfered them you can download/save and delete too. Just be sure you save a copy on each computer (outside the dropbox folder) and you're good to start over if you're purpose is for file transfer.

Chicken Parmesan Burgers
Oh, Chicken Parmigiana, how do I love thee? I love your crisp, seasoned crust. I love your tangy, herb-studded marinara sauce. I love your ooey, gooey, decadent blanket of cheese. I love the saucy noodles that usually ride shotgun on the plate with you.
I love you. Except for one leeeeetle problem.
You are a Calorie Bomb from Hell. Yeah, I know you think you're all sneaky, because you are chicken--boneless, skinless, chicken at that--which everyone knows is healthy, right?
You little charlatan. You.....Lothario! You seduce us with promises of lean, nutritious protein, add the enticement of a vegetable-studded sauce and then? Ka-blammo! You knock us onto our rapidly-expanding ass.
The proof is in the pudding*. The Chicken Parmigiana entree at the Olive Garden restaurant contains just how many calories, do you think? Huh? I mean, it's only chicken, right? Wrong. The magic number is: 1,090.
'Tis true. You can look it up yourself. And that number doesn't even include the salad and those Crack Breadsticks they serve. 1,090 calories for one meal is seven kinds of wrong, people!
I think I might have a single glass of wine or a Go-gurt left over in the calorie bank after eating Olive Garden Chicken Parm (no salad, no breadsticks. If I eat those, I've hit my calorie allotment for the whole freaking day).
But this sucks! I love you, Chicken Parm! What's a girl--a girl with a firm eye on the size of her backside--to do?
In my case, a girl finds a really kick-butt recipe in Bon Appetit for Chicken Parmesan Burgers. A recipe which, when followed as directed, clocks in at 554 calories. Not bad! If you are on Le Regime, or even a half-assed Regime, you can do like I did and skip the top layer of bread (or skip bread altogether and add a side salad) and make it a knife-and-fork affair.
Any way you dish it up, it will deliver that crave-worthy Chicken Parm taste without the walk of shame in the morning.
Chicken Parmesan Burgers
from Bon Appetit
serves 4
10 1/2-inch-thick slices French bread (4 inches in diameter); 8 slices toasted, 2 slices (crust removed) diced
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese**
4 tablespoons minced fresh basil, divided, plus 12 large basil leaves
3/4 cup purchased refrigerated marinara sauce
12 ounces ground chicken (white meat)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon grated onion
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces whole-milk mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
4 large radicchio leaves
Blend diced bread and Parmesan in processor to fine crumbs. Transfer to pie dish; mix in 2 tablespoons minced basil.
Mix marinara and 2 tablespoons basil in a small saucepan. Transfer 1 1/2 tablespoons sauce to large bowl. Add chicken, 1/2 tablespoon oil, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Sprinkle with pepper; blend. Shape into four 1/2-inch thick patties; coat with crumbs. Heat sauce over low heat.
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties until bottoms are crusty, 4 minutes. Turn patties over, top with cheese. Cook 3 minutes.
Cover; cook until cooked through and cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
Assemble burgers with bread, radicchio, basil leaves and warm marinara.
* Proof is in the pudding? Where did that wacky phrase come from, I wonder? That makes no stinking sense.
** Since there are so few ingredients in this recipe, I'm going to urge you to buy the GOOD stuff. Parmigianno-Reggiano from Italy, in the block form. No pre-shredded cheese! The already shredded kind loses it's flavor in like, a day. Okay, enough harassin' ya.

Yes I'm sonnetizing early now.
Life is dull, your blog is not and how.Geez, Louise, the talent here. I was thinking of saying to TKW: You WILL be writing a cooking book a la Elizabeth David but with your own personality instead, right? Lesson learnt about CP - cut the carbs, not the sauce or cheese.
Then I come down to this last post by BLW - she write poetry about TKW's post. I'm in awe.
All I had to add was
"All the proof of a pudding is in the eating."
goes back to at least 1600, possibly from Don Quixotes, see www.phrases.org.uk
Boring, I know, but we can all be stellar.When I was a Girl Scout in suburban New Jersey in the '80s, we went on a "field trip" to the kitchen of a local Olive Garden, and the kind folks there let us see how fresh pasta was made.
That is the one and only positive experience I've ever had at an OG, but the memory remains.
Anywho, I love chicken parm, too! It's one of those things I would never make for myself (for precisely the reasons you point out here, though of course you've eliminated much of those anxieties), but always thrilled over when someone else cooked it for a dinner party or holiday. So delicious!Nooooooo don't tell me that!! The boyfriend's mother made some the other week and stuck some in some tupperware for us to have so we have some back-up meals in the freezer for when I can't be bothered to cook (which is always). Now I'm going to get the guilts when I take it out and cram it all in to my mouth in one go. Damn you calories!
ReplyDeleteBecause I have had this post and recipe on the brain for four days now, we'll be having chicken parm burgers for dinner tonight. Using basil leaves from an actual plant - how is it that a whole damn pot of living basil costs less than the packaged "fresh" variety? Just another TGIspring moment.

A master carpenter is a senior position recognized for superior craftsmanship and years of training. Your references and your portfolio of work will truly define you as a master in the field of carpentry. There's no such thing as an official master carpenter designation. Despite the prevalence of this phrasing and its nod to high quality craftsmanship, master carpenter turns out to be a self-designation with no accepted industry definition or certification in the U. Under the supervision of the set designer and technical director, the master carpenter is ultimately responsible for the construction of all scenic elements of a live production.
The other day I was asked if I was a Master carpenter or if I was certified. Description. The master carpenter, under the supervision of the technical director, is responsible for the construction, mounting, and rigging of the scenery. Synonyms for master carpenter at Thesaurus.com with free online thesaurus, antonyms, and definitions. Dictionary and Word of the Day.
Definition of master The official Collins English Dictionary online. In teaching, a Master Teacher is someone qualified to teach other teachers.

I know there are plenty of master carpenters here, but who can tell me when that is an appropriate term, what do you think qualifies? and should any of us actually use the term to apply to ourselves? Would you use it as a marketing thing? Seriously, I want to know what you think about the term. In every case I have ever read regarding licensing of journeymen plumbers and master plumbers or journeymen electricians or master electricians, the distinction was defined as follows: journeymen were defined as mechanics and master plumbers or master electricians were defined as contractors.

Winter Park (Fla.) High School defensive back Blake McClain says he is a "soft commit" to Kentucky now that the Wildcats have announced a coaching change at the end of the season.
"I just don't know what's going to happen, who's going to be there, so it's really hard for me to say right now," McClain said. "I'm going to have to build a relationship with whoever comes in as the new coach before I can say whether I'm still going to Kentucky."
McClain (5-11, 180, 4.5) is a three-star cornerback who had three interceptions as a senior for Winter Park.
Even before the official news of Joker Phillips' dismissal broke, he suspected it would happen.
"I know they've been struggling, so you kind of know it could happen," he said. "I was still sorry to hear it. He's a great coach and a great guy. I really wanted to play for him."
McClain recently took an official visit to Iowa State which "went really well." He is also considering Pittsburgh, Arizona and "maybe Wake Forest." He has four available official visits remaining.
Asked if Kentucky could still be one of those visits, McClain, who committed in June, said: "Possibly. It all depends on who the new coach is. I just have to wait and see what happens."

New York City Transit says an encryption device in the machines malfunctioned. The device is supposed to process electronic data when people swipe a debit or credit card. Then, it sends the information to be authorized and charges the card. The malfunction caused an error message to appear on the machine when people swiped their cards to pay ? but the cards were still charged. New York City Transit says solving the problem won?t be an issue. Now that the problem has been identified, they say it will be fixed as soon as possible. They?ve asked the contractor to install a signal that would alert people when the encryption device has an error. Days after the error, riders continued to use debit and credit cards to purchase their MetroCards. They say they?re confident the system won?t fail them again. The device that broke was one of two that is used for the system. Each one serves more than 2,000 machines citywide. According to the MTA, credit and debit cards are used in about 30 percent of MetroCard transactions. Anyone who received an incorrect charge on their card will be automatically reimbursed in seven to 10 business days.

As a South by Southwest darling, few tech brands benefited from more buzz during March than Highlight. But the San Francisco startup's CEO, Paul Davison, told ClickZ New yesterday that he's not at all keen on the chatter.
"I hate the hype," he said. "I actually do."
Davison was busy prepping the new version of his so-called serendipity app for approval submission to the Apple store. The update, he said, will include making the app less of a drain on iPhone batteries, among other tweaks.
Davison is focused on a range of technology issues related to his app, not so much on creating revenues. For instance, he pointed out the three-month-old Highlight is still without an Android version. He said his venture capital-backed company may not focus on monetization "for a few years."
Down the road, he said, "There will be things we can do around advertising… We could help reach people with certain interests or from a certain area. We can help businesses learn more about their customers. Though it's all about critical mass…If we get our product so it helps the world, there will be a lot of ways to make money."
Davison was mum on user numbers. On whether Highlight's eventual monetization model would look more like Facebook or Foursquare, he remarked, "I think it could look different from both of them. If I had to guess, it would probably look more like Facebook."
Here's how the Highlight user experience works: If a "friend of a friend" is in the coffee shop next door, the user will receive a push notification. He or she will see images and names of nearby strangers on the app with which he or she has "1 thing in common" or "2 things in common." The key utilities, in theory, are that Highlight will help users meet more people while reconnecting with users they already know.
"It happens more often than you'd think that your friend is behind that wall," Davison said. "Or that the person sitting next to you knows 32 of your friends."
Unlike Foursquare and Facebook Places, check-ins are not a part of the process. As tech marketers like to say, the app is "frictionless." But questions easily arise. Will this particularly transparent brand of location-based information rub social media users who also like a little privacy the wrong way? And will the app be attractive to users who are older than Gen Y? Future mobile users of all ages will accept more transparency, Davison contended, just as consumers have grown accustomed to the privacy given up in the last two decades because of cell phones, the Internet, and social media.
"The same thing happened with Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Foursquare," he said. "When those new technologies came out, they were mostly used by people that were younger. And that's pretty natural… Just think of 10 years ago. If you saw a pretty sunset or something unusual, you weren't as inclined to share that as you are today."

"trip with my friends"
Exelente lugar!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Restaurants, are great, activities with Ximena are fenomenal, the entretainment staff do a lot of contest with good prices !!!!!!! We're javing a lot of fun at the pool Karaoke was great!!
"Pleasantly Surprised!"
For a 3.5 star all-inclusive, I was surprised by this hotel! The buffet was delicious (but room service food was terrible). Sky bar was fun. Beach was very nice (you can't swim here, of course, as is usual for Cabo) - soft sand, very wide. Room was spacious and wifi worked well. Bathroom felt a little icky with no tub and bad lighting. Minibar was refreshed daily and room was cleaned well. Balcony is spacious and ocean views are prominent. The swim-up bar is in the pool farthest away form the ocean which I didn't like, but there was some drink service at the other pools that seemed sporadic. You have t sign towels in and out which is annoying, but there are no towel cards. Premium liquor is for Club Premium guests only and is only at the lobby bar FYI. We were there for a wedding and although there were tons of gawkers during the ceremony, the reception was very private and super cool. They did a curtain o hanging string lights all the way around the reception area and had a bonfire out next to it . It was a great setting complete with dance floor sitting on the sand.

"Rude Staff, Bad Food and Terrible Service"
I was extremely excited to stay at my first all inclusive resort in Mexico. After having spoken with several friends who have stayed at other all-inclusive resort in Cabo San Lucas and the surrounding area, I had high expectations of great food, drinks and service. However- Barcelo Gran Faro was the OPPOSITE of these expectations. From the second we stepped on the resort, the staff was unfriendly, management closed off specific areas of the resort to our group, maid-service only cleaned our room once in seven days, and it was impossible to get reservations at the restaurants (the only place where the food was edible). Additionally, I felt extremely unsafe while on the property. It felt like people were constantly watching my group. I would avoid with your family at all costs.

"Mexican vacation"
We had a great family vacation. Ingrid at the concierge desk worked her magic for a great birthday dinner. Rooms, pools and restaurant were clean. Very good food; nice variety. Jared helped secure a fun excision into Cabo. Smaller size of the resort caters to small groups. Missed most of the college spring break shenanigans. Would return and recommend to family and friends.

I have experience traveling. This is the longest review I ever wrote. I'm very objective and easy going. I just want to report my observations. Restuarants - Every morning I made reservations for the night. Always told only two times available. Usually one around 6:00 and second somewhere after 7:00. When we showed to eat the places were only 20% full. Not sure why I had to make a reservation. Tried asking the people running the restaurant but they couldn't understand my question. Food - Mediocre at best. Breakfast was the best meal. One night when they were doing the Italian restaurant basic Italian food was not on the menu (e.g. no parmesan, lasagna, mosttacholi, or even pizza). My wife tried to order fish with no capers, and the way the waiter reacted didn't seem normal, so my wife asked what he wrote down for her meal and he replied "Chicken". Activities - Daily activities listed at the pool house are the same every day. Out of 5 days we were there, one day they set up a stereo, and one game of bingo in 5 days. Intesting thing about Bingo, it was free, but they had only 25-30 cards. If you won, there was no prize that I'm aware of. I was truly baffled by the bingo. Other than that, there was no organized activities that I saw. Pool tables - There are two tables, one triangle that needed to be shared (no big deal but interesting), (3) pool sticks between the two tables. This meant if both tables were being used one table needed to share a stick. The tips of the stick were so slick it was tough to hit the cue ball without slipping off. I asked the bar tender for chalk for the stick and he was clueless what I was asking for. A second person came buy and I asked them about chalk and I was told there is none. A little while later I was going by the pool tables and saw there was chalk. This really confused and aggravated me. Infinity pool - It wasn't filled enough so the water was not flowing over the walls for a few days. It was warm while we were there, so after the 3rd day it was about 8" lower than the top of the wall. The water trough on ocean side of pool was holding water for the same 3 day period and started to stink. At that point I went to the front desk to complain. They sent a maintenance worker to the pool he set a vacuum and hose next to the trough, left and never came back. The next day (our last day) it was filled and working. I wonder if I hadn't complained would it not have been fixed. Construction - I work in commercial construction in US and the workmanship of the finishes are way below any standard of acceptability. The tile work in the bathrooms was comical. Language - Large percentage of staff does not speak english. House Keeping - Was OK, but for an all inclusive they didn't always fill the refrigerator with the drinks so that was hit and miss. Overall I was disappointed with my experience.

Customer inquiry:
for our Coherent Mira HP system (wavelength range 690-1060nm, pulse width 150fs,
max. power 4 W at 80MHz repetition rate) we'd like to ask for a quote for a
Third Harmonic Generator.
Del Mar Photonics quote
Second, Third and Forth Harmonic Generator for Ti:Sapphire lasers: Case studies - request a quote
Customer Inquiry:
I am interested in a unit for second and third harmonic generation of a
Spectra Physics Mai Tai HP system. Parameters are:
Wavelength 860nm,
80MHz rep rate,
80-100 fs pulse width (FWHM),
beam diameter about 1.0 mm,
M2 of 1.05,
produces up to 2100 mW of output power.
The pulse duration of second and third harmonic should not be much
larger than the 100 fs of the fundamental beam.
What conversion efficiency could be achieved both in SHG and THG at
which pulse parameters?
Del Mar Photonics reply:
Customer inquiry:
We have about 1 W across the range 780nm to 920 nm. We are interested mostly
in tunability in the range 240-300nm. Pulse width is not very > important. If a
(third + fourth) HG exists in one model, that would be great. Also it would be
good for us to have several wavelength available at the same time, i.e.
fundamental and harmonics.
I want to use this system for a photoemission microscope, and my first interest
is in the tuning capability. The second interest is in building up a
pump-and-probe system using the fundamental or 2nd harmonic as a pump beam and
the third harmonic as probe. Do you have suggestions for the delay-line?
We can offer our multiharmonic (SH, TH) generator unit. The simultaneous output
will have around 10% (100 mW) of your input power in fundamental and each of
harmonics (10% fundamental, 10% second and 10% third). Each harmonic has its own
output (see attachment). The tuning range will be 260-300 nm for TH with your
input tuning range.
The FH system will produce 205-230 nm radiation out of your laser (780-920)
Customer inquiry:
I'm interested in the 3^rd harmonic generator for an amplified Ti:sapphire laser.
What is the maximum pulse energy? The system is a Coherent regenerative
amplifier (RegA 9000) that produces 750 mW at a repetition rate of 100 kHz,
which is a pulse energy of 7.5 microjoules in 50 femtoseconds. The beam diameter
is 2.7 mm.
We have tried to use a Coherent 9300 harmonic system, but it is designed for
oscillator energies of nanojoules, so it is too tightly focused on the crystal
and generates white light.
Please find enclosed the quotation for the TH generator along with
the drawing. Please note that since the unit is non-standard the dimensions
may be extended by +100 mm in length and +50 mm in width.

Pismo pulse picker The Pismo pulse picker systems is as a pulse gating system that lets single pulses or group of subsequent pulses from a femtosecond or picosecond pulse train pass through the system, and stops other radiation. The system is perfectly suitable for most commercial femtosecond oscillators and amplifiers. The system can pick either single pulses, shoot bursts (patterns of single pulses) or pick group of subsequent pulses (wider square-shaped HV pulse modification). HV pulse duration (i.e. gate open time) is 10 ns in the default Pismo 8/1 model, but can be customized from 3 to 1250 ns upon request or made variable. The frequency of the picked pulses starts with single shot to 1 kHz for the basic model, and goes up to 100 kHz for the most advanced one. The Pockels cell is supplied with a control unit that is capable of synching to the optical pulse train via a built-in photodetector unit, while electric trigger signal is also accepted. Two additional delay channels are available for synching of other equipment to the pulse picker operation. Moreover, USB connectivity and LabView-compatible drivers save a great deal of your time on storing and recalling presets, and setting up some automated experimental setups. One control unit is capable of driving of up to 3 Pockels cells, and this comes handy in complex setups or contrast-improving schemes. The system can also be modified to supply two HV pulses to one Pockels cell unit, making it a 2-channel pulse picker system. This may be essential for injection/ejection purposes when building a regenerative or multipass amplifier system. |

femtosecond transient absorption data acquisition system Future nanostructures and biological nanosystems will take advantage not only of the small dimensions of the objects but of the specific way of interaction between nano-objects. The interactions of building blocks within these nanosystems will be studied and optimized on the femtosecond time scale - says Sergey Egorov, President and CEO of Del Mar Photonics, Inc. Thus we put a lot of our efforts and resources into the development of new Ultrafast Dynamics Tools such as our Femtosecond Transient Absorption Measurements system Hatteras. Whether you want to create a new photovoltaic system that will efficiently convert photon energy in charge separation, or build a molecular complex that will dump photon energy into local heat to kill cancer cells, or create a new fluorescent probe for FRET microscopy, understanding of internal dynamics on femtosecond time scale is utterly important and requires advanced measurement techniques.

Wavefront Sensors: ShaH Family A family of ShaH wavefront sensors represents recent progress of Del Mar Photonics in Shack-Hartmann-based technology. The performance of Shack-Hartmann sensors greatly depends on the quality of the lenslet arrays used. Del Mar Photonics. developed a proprietary process of lenslet manufacturing, ensuring excellent quality of refractive lenslet arrays. The arrays can be AR coated on both sides without interfering with the micro-lens surface accuracy. Another advantage of the ShaH wavefront sensors is a highly optimized processing code. This makes possible real-time processing of the sensor data at the rate exceeding 1000 frames per second with a common PC. Due to utilizing low-level programming of the video GPU, it is possible to output the wavefront data with a resolution up to 512x512 pixels at a 500+ Hz frame rate. This mode is favorable for controlling modern LCOS wavefront correctors. The family of ShaH wavefront sensors includes several prototype models, starting from low-cost ShaH-0620 suitable for teaching laboratory to a high-end high-speed model, ShaH-03500. The latter utilizes a back-illuminated EM-gain CCD sensor with cooling down to -100°C. This makes it possible to apply such a wavefront sensor in astronomy, remote sensing, etc. |

Frequency-stabilized CW single-frequency ring Dye laser DYE-SF-007 pumped by DPSS DMPLH laser installed in the brand new group of Dr. Dajun Wang at the The Chinese University of Hong Kong. DYE-SF-077 features exceptionally narrow generation line width, which amounts to less than 100 kHz. DYE-SF-077 sets new standard for generation line width of commercial lasers. Prior to this model, the narrowest line-width of commercial dye lasers was as broad as 500 kHz - 1 MHz. It is necessary to note that the 100-kHz line-width is achieved in DYE-SF-077 without the use of an acousto-optical modulator, which, as a rule, complicates the design and introduces additional losses. A specially designed ultra-fast PZT is used for efficient suppression of radiation frequency fluctuations in a broad frequency range. DYE-SF-077 will be used in resaerch of Ultracold polar molecules, Bose-Einstein condensate and quantum degenerate Fermi gas and High resolution spectroscopy |

MHS tennis sending two to state
It was a day filled with ups and downs for the Manhattan High girls' tennis team playing in the Topeka tennis regional on Saturday.
The team got to experience the joy of winning the doubles bracket, as the pairing of Kristen Fraley and Cathy Lei won 6-1, 6-4 against Washburn Rural's Mikaela Steinagel and Darby Hirsch to give Manhattan its first regional doubles title in four years.
"It was just a phenomenal day," Manhattan coach Joyce Allen said. "Four years ago, Kristen's older sister Kayla and her partner Andrea Kruse won a doubles regional, so it's been four years. So that was really special."
But the day was also bittersweet for the rest of the team, as both Bianca Pedrozo and Caroline Sager came close to qualifying for state in singles but fell short. The young doubles pair of Tracy Le and Pajsoua Lo were unseeded and were drawn into the bracket against Steinagel and Hirsch in the first round and lost in straight sets.
"It was a bittersweet day," Allen said. "We were so excited for Kristen and Cathy, and we were so close in some of our singles matches."
Pedrozo, who came in seeded seventh, won her first match 6-2, 6-1 against Wichita East before losing to Derby in her second match, 6-4, 6-2. She got a tough draw when the No. 3 seed in the bracket was upset by the sixth seed and knocked out Pedrozo, 6-3, 6-1.
As the No. 8 seed in singles, Sager finished the day 1-2, beating Junction City in her opening match 6-1, 6-0, before falling to Rural's Madeline Hill, 6-0, 6-0. She was eliminated by Rural's Avery Munns in a three-set match, 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.
For Fraley and Lei, the day began with a win over Wichita North, 6-0, 6-1 and a win over sixth-seeded Wichita East 6-0, 6-4. Then the pair had to play Rural's No. 2 pairing of Irene Nicolae and Malaina Piyassaphan, in what turned out to be a marathon match and a Manhattan win, 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (7-3).
"We blew through them in the first set," Allen said. "Kristen and Cathy almost didn't make a mistake in the first set."
The match was neck and neck from there, but once the Indians got to the tiebreaker, they cruised to the win.
In the finals, the pair once again played strong in the opening set before Rural made adjustments in the second set.
"It was a really good win for those two," Allen said. "They just showed people that they can put it all together."

Leighton Harriers
Sounds a bit like an athletics club but I am in fact referring to Leighton Moss and its magnificent marsh harriers.It was quite some time since I had visited Leighton Moss and when I pulled into the car park I found it to be very busy.Undeterred I signed in and proceeded to visit Lilian's Hide.As usual here at this time of the year there were many black headed gulls disputing territorial rites on the small island.I spent some time there and then decided to move on to see what was about elsewhere.
Tim Jackson hide was next ,here was a nice assortment of wildfowl and a few snipe.This gave me some nice opportunities with the camera and I have shown above a snipe,teal and a shoveler all showing off their lovely plumages.Whilst at Tim Jackson I learnt that Marsh Harriers were showing well from the Grizedale hide.So I headed off to see if I could catch up with the harriers.On the way to Grizedale the loud explosive call of a Cettis warbler could be heard.
On arrival at the Grizedale hide a number of big lenses were in operation firing off rapidly as the marsh harriers performed in front of the hide.I waited my turn to obtain a good spot and caught up with a fellow photographer whom I hadn't seen for some time.I eventually got into a good position looking over the reedbeds and the displaying harriers.It was a hectic half hour or so firing off many salvos of shots as the harriers flew and displayed close to the hide.It looks like they may be prospecting for suitable nest sites and we all look forward to the weeks ahead when hopefully the marsh harriers will be returning with nesting material and we hope they have another successful nesting season.I have shown above a selection of the many shots I took in this exciting session.Hope you enjoy the images of one of Leighton's iconic birds and thanks for looking in.

Frosty Hares
Yesterday morning found me out and about in some of my favourite areas of Bowland.I had decided on an early morning visit as I have found that this is the best time to observe the wildlife. My primary objective was the brown hare which can with a bit of luck be approached closely using the comfort of the car as a mobile hide.Yesterday morning was perhaps the coldest so far of what has been a very mild and very wet winter.
It was around -3degrees with a heavy frost adding to the beauty of this lovely part of Lancashire.I have shown above a couple of images of the vale of Chipping seen from on top of Longridge Fell and down at valley level showing the heavy frost whitening the fields.It was quite good for hares with a dozen or so seen on my travels around the quiet lanes and backroads of Bowland.I have shown a few images above of the brown hares and you will be able to see the ice on the hare's whiskers as they waited for the warmth of the early morning sun.I have also included a shot of one of the curlews which are now returning to these upland fields to breed. Hope you enjoy my selection from the first of what I hope are many early morning forays to see the wonderful and varied wildlife of Bowland.Thanks for looking in.

Wirral's Wonderful Waders
These last few months I have visited the Wirral to observe and photograph the huge flocks of waders that make the area their winter home.The numbers of waders present has not been as large as last year but nevertheless provided some memorable trips to witness the spectacle.I have posted previously in January on a couple of my visits but am now showing a few more images taken subsequently.
I visited on a couple of ten metre tides hoping for a close approach from the thousands of waders present.This didn't happen but a nice group of knot,dunlin and sanderling did come close and a bar tailed godwit was with them and I have shown the images above.At one point a splendid male sparrowhawk came dashing through looking for a victim but was not successful..I did manage a quick snap as he passed by.
I have enjoyed visiting the Wirral and am looking forward to the return of the waders this coming winter.
Hope you enjoy my selection of images of the Wirral wader spectacular and thanks for looking in.

Snakes..Frogs and an Owl
This week the weather has continued to be settled and warmer. With the warmer weather I decided on a visit to Bowland to see if the adders had emerged from hibernation. It proved to be a good decision as a couple of adders were spotted in one of their favourite areas. One of the snakes went back underground and didn't reappear but the other one stayed out for twenty minutes or so and gave some nice opportunities for the camera. With a careful approach I was able to get close to the snake and some of the images I managed are shown above.
Another day I visited the Pilling and Cockerham area looking for brown hares. The only two I saw were too distant for the camera but I am sure more opportunities will occur in the coming weeks.What was good however was a little owl posing and sunbathing by the roadside.The owl stayed around long enough to have it's portrait taken and heads this post.I have also shown some more images from my previous weeks visit to the spawning frogs. Stay tuned for more of my travels in the weeks to come and thanks for looking in.

Frantic Frogs
The weather has settled down this week and warmed up a little. Nature has responded and at last Spring does seem to have arrived.The population of frogs thinks so also, and this week I have been to a local pond to capture the annual spawning spectacle.
I visited a park which has a number of ponds and eventually I came across a corner of one of the ponds which was full of frogs and frogspawn.With a careful approach I was able to enter the water and set up a camera and tripod and obtain some nice images of the action.I also took some video as the sight and sounds of the dozens of frogs present was special and worth recording for future use.
I returned for a second visit and on this visit I donned my waders to enable me to get closer to the action. The frogs were not bothered by my presence and allowed a close approach and I was very pleased with the resulting images and video.I have shown above a small selection of some of the images I obtained and hope you enjoy them .Toads will also be actively spawning around now and next week I may spend time looking for a suitable site to photograph them.
Thanks for looking in and I will hopefully add more images from my travels in due course.
