SAN FRANCISCO — Alfred Hitchcock would have loved the Twitter headquarters here. Birds gathering everywhere, painted on the wall in flocks, perched on the coffee table, stitched on pillows and framed on the wall with a thought bubble asking employees to please tidy up after themselves.
In a droll nod to shifting technology, there's a British red telephone booth in the loftlike office that you are welcome to use but you'll have to bring in your cellphone.
I was here on a simple quest: curious to know if the inventors of Twitter were as annoying as their invention. (They're not. They're charming.)
I sat down with Biz Stone, 35, and Evan Williams, 37, and asked them to justify themselves.
ME: You say the brevity of Twitter enhances creativity. So I wonder if you can keep your answers to 140 characters, like Twitter users must. Twitter seems like telegrams without the news. We now know that on the president's trip to Trinidad, ABC News's Jake Tapper's shower was spewing brown water. Is there any thought that doesn't need to be published?
Continue reading the main storyBIZ: The one I'm thinking right now.
ME: Did you know you were designing a toy for bored celebrities and high-school girls?
BIZ: We definitely didn't design it for that. If they want to use it for that, it's great.
ME: I heard about a woman who tweeted her father's funeral. Whatever happened to private pain?
EVAN: I have private pain every day.
ME: If you were out with a girl and she started twittering about it in the middle, would that be a deal-breaker or a turn-on?
BIZ (dryly): In the middle of what?
ME: Do you ever think "I don't care that my friend is having a hamburger?"
BIZ: If I said I was eating a hamburger, Evan would be surprised because I'm a vegan.
ME: What do you think about the backlash to Twitter on the blogs? Isn't that a bit like the pot calling the kettle black?
BIZ: If people are passionate about your product, whether it's because they're hating or loving it, those are both good scenarios. People can use it to help each other during fuel shortages or revolts or earthquakes or wildfires. That's the exciting part of it.
ME: Why did you think the answer to e-mail was a new kind of e-mail?
BIZ: With Twitter, it's as easy to unfollow as it is to follow.
(They're spilling past 140 characters now, but it must feel good to climb out of their Twitter bird cage. Evan has to leave. Biz and I continue.)
ME: Don't you get worried about being swallowed up by Google?
BIZ: They don't swallow you up. They call you up.
ME: Why did you call the company Twitter instead of Clutter?
BIZ: We had a lot of words like "Jitter" and things that reflected a hyper-nervousness. Somebody threw "Twitter" in the hat. I thought "Oh, that's the short trivial bursts of information that birds do."
ME: Oprah unleashed mayhem in the Twittersphere last week when, in her first tweet, she greeted "Twitters" instead of "Twitterers."
BIZ: I'm still kinda old-school. We're twittering, and we're all twitterers. And we write tweets. The only thing I don't love is twits.
ME: Would Shakespeare have tweeted?
BIZ: Brevity's the soul of wit, right?
ME: Was there anything in your childhood that led you to want to destroy civilization as we know it?
BIZ: You mean enhance civilization, make it even better?
ME: What's your favorite book?
BIZ: I loved Sherlock Holmes when I was a kid.
ME: But you've helped destroy mystery.
BIZ: When you put more information out there, sometimes you can just put a little bit of it out, which just makes the mystery even broader.
ME: When newsprint blows away, I want a second career as a Twitter ghostwriter. Which celebrity on Twitter most needs my help?
BIZ: Definitely not Shaq. Britney, maybe.
ME: Gavin Newsom announced his candidacy for governor today on Twitter and elsewhere. Does that make you the new Larry King?
BIZ: Did he? I didn't know.
ME: Have you thought about using even fewer than 140 characters?
BIZ: I've seen people twitter in haiku only. Twit-u. James Buck, the student who was thrown into an Egyptian prison, just wrote "Arrested."
ME: I would rather be tied up to stakes in the Kalahari Desert, have honey poured over me and red ants eat out my eyes than open a Twitter account. Is there anything you can say to change my mind?
BIZ: Well, when you do find yourself in that position, you're gonna want Twitter. You might want to type out the message "Help."

Need some advice about how to advance my career
I'm a recent RN, BAN who took a job in a nursing home because it's close to where I live, the pay was good enough, and I needed a job.
I want to work in an ER/trauma unit, and I recognize that I'll probably be needing some Med-Surg experience first. My question is this:
How can I keep up, or even develop, the skills I learned in nursing school that are relevant to ER, trauma, and MS while working at a nursing home?
Are there any good online courses I could take? Any certifications or anything that don't require MS experience?
I thank you in advance for your thoughtful, informed responses!!!Sep 20, '13I think your best option is to find an acute care M/S job. If you can't get an acute care nursing job, you might want to look for opportunites to volunteer in an ED setting in another capacity ... or maybe get certified as an EMT or something. You need actual experience, not readings or courses etc.Sep 20, '13we hire a few new grads each year to our ER, so you are still trainable. If you are working in any acute care setting you will get more types of experiences and will be able to network with the right people so you can transfer to another department later on. Good luckMust Read Topics

"... if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing ..."
Perpetua, a wealthy noblewoman just coming of age in Carthage, discovers Jesus at a time when Christians are being thrown to the beasts in city ampitheaters for sport. Rejecting the gods of the ancient Roman Empire, she embraces a passionate relationship with Jesus and falls in love with a man who shares her faith. Together they navigate the treacherous, bloodthirsty waters of the social culture, but every step seems to take them closer to the ultimate sacrifice.
"... I screamed. Ba'al's statue seemed alive. A path opened through the crowd, and I stood alone before him. He knew me. I flung my head back, letting the hood fall, and slowly raised my arm, pointing steadily at his image. "You," I cried aloud, "are not God!" ..."

Our hotel was right across the street from the Christian Science campus. This is a picture of the main church.
There's a beautiful little grove of trees on the Huntington Avenue side of the campus. You can see, the trees aren't nearly as far along as ours down South.
Saturday, Jim, Anna, and I went to Priscilla's of Boston so we could see Anna's beautiful wedding dress. Back in 1973, when I was in Laurel Lea Schaefer's wedding we all wore dresses from Priscilla's of Boston. Anna's dress is perfect. After we finished there, we walked down to Copley Square to wait for the number 9 bus to Southie.
We got off the bus one stop early so we could make a little pilgrimage to the Italian bakery. We got some lovely treats to have with our tea and spent a lazy afternoon in South Boston. That night, we had a delicious dinner at the fantastic Venezuelan restaurant called Orinoco on Shawmut. It's a tiny place with just a few tables, but the food is so unique and exciting. These are baskets decorating the wall.
Colorful chairs enliven the small table area.
After dinner, we walked to the Calderwood Pavilion to see a preview performance of the Huntington Theatre Company's Miracle at Naples.
Days three and four will be Friday's post.

http://green.autoblog.com/2010/07/16/breaking-tesla-and-toyota-to-develop-rav4-ev-hope-to-launch-in/ Toyota press release says ... No information on range or price. I guess late 2012 - so about 30 months away.
Interesting; at the initial press conference Elon said the aim was to bring a joint venture vehicle to market before the Model S. What has changed? The prototype has come out quickly. The RAV4 is an existing vehicle so why should it take another 30 months to bring it to market?
the electric version of the RAV4 on the way Tesla and Toyota announced will start the development of an electric version of the Toyota RAV4 compact SUV find the article here http://www.auto-power-girl.com/cars-news/2010/07/18/toyota/4687/toyota_and_tesla_to_build_electric_rav4_by_2012.html
The first version still trades on eBay for $40k+ and is proof that 100 miles on a charge works for many people. Looking forwards to it.
This is probably a stupid question but I assume the original batteries are long gone. How have the owners been replacing them? Have specialty companies or enthusiasts created new battery packs? If so, has the range increased over the years?
The only stupid question is one you don't ask. On the other hand, there may be lots of stupid answers. I would point you to EVnut's website (EVnut dot com) for answers to almost anything RAV4EV. As a past owner, I can say that there were many, and are many, RAV4EVs out there with over 100K miles on the batteries, and still getting over 100 miles per charge. Some have been getting lower mpc, and a few have replaced the pack through Toyota who uses Battery MD. This company seems to have gotten a hold of many used batteries (from crushed RAV4EVs??) and will assemble a balanced and fresh pack for, what, seems like $15K as I recall. Many owners look forward to another 100K miles. The RAV4EV was and is a great car. So far as I know, no one has come up with a replacement pack as Chevron owns the rights to the NiMH large form factor battery and refuses to let anyone use it. Toyota paid fines and had to quit using it in 2002.
Thanks, that's good to know. I'll check out that website. I don't have range anxiety but I suffer from long term charge anxiety I'm very curious to see how the batteries in the roadster hold up and what the options will be 5-7 years from now. I anticipate a several vendors offering different replacement packs with different characteristics. Should be an exciting time.
One of my big questions is battery pack placement. Will it be the "Better Place" configuration or will it be another type of config that will fit in and around the new RAV4?
I always wonder how much progress was lost because the NiMH technology was essentially shelved by Chevron after acquiring Texaco, which had acquired the batteries from GM. 150,000 miles was the expected NiMH battery pack life with ~ 120-mile range.
The only replacement batteries are reconditioned ones that are the same age as the ones in the original cars. New ones haven't been made since the early 2000's. So far, nobody I know of has created a new battery pack from similar or different battery chemistry.
BatteryMD is/was a source for used replacement batteries for both Rav4EV and RangerEV. They NiMH rangers used basically the same battery type as the Rav4EV, so BatteryMD may have been able to salvage some old Ranger packs and use them for Rav4EVs. I think BatteryMD had some sort of deal with Ford a while back to take over spare parts and lease returns so they had a lot more Ford Ranger batteries than Toyota/Panasonic batteries. Rav4EV version: RangerEV version: (My RangerEV is 10 years old, and the batteries are still working well.)
IIRC, I saw a vid on someone who had the hottest EV mod stock sedan anywhere, and before a particular race he had everything set to replace his lead-acids with LiIon. There was a delivery glitch, but he managed to get them and fast-fit them in just in time with some help from one or two of his adepter friends. :biggrin: The weight reduction then made it possible for him to set new speed records, or SLT. I therefore conclude and presume it would be possible to hand-craft a LiIon replacement for NiMHs, also. Where there's a will ...
Ruh-Roh! That's worrying. Begley is so whacked that if he's ever right about anything, it's pure paradoxical accident.
Well, there's a fleet of p-types due this year: and the big picture looks very Toyota-centric: The Nummi plant is very large, so there could be a lot of balls in the air at once, of course. It could actually propel TM out of the niche-market-status most assign it to a lot faster than anyone has been anticipating. Toyota doesn't need to fool around and take baby-steps.
Unlike the Rav4EV, some of the RangerEVs were NiMH and some were Lead-Acid. The Lead-Acid packs tended to only last a few years, so some have been converted to Lithium packs. The first part in converting the Lead-Acid rangers seems to be to switch the wiring to the NiMH wiring, so it does appear there is a "solution" available to RangerEV owners to switch to Lithium batteries shold the day come that the NiMH batteries finally wear out. LiFePo4-Ranger-part1 LiFePo4-Ranger-part2
^ There were some early lead-acid Rav4s, but they were not taken forward into the "production" version.
That was John Wayland of Portland OR, and his White Zombie. I have heard of at least two people working on LiIon replacement packs for RAV4-EVs. I saw one guy's work on another car; he's definitely capable. But no released kits yet. That's OK, I don't expect to need new batteries in my RAV4-EV for several more years...
Something from ABG (sourced from Darryl Siry). Bit of crow eating for Bill Reinert. Rumor: Toyota's Bill Reinert goes from Tesla skeptic to RAV4 EV manager http://green.autoblog.com/2010/08/06/rumor-toyotas-bill-reinert-goes-from-tesla-skeptic-to-rav4-ev/ Here is an interesting piece on what Bill (and Toyota) think about Peak Oil, electric cars etc. http://financialnewsexpress.blogspot.com/2010/04/toyotas-bill-reinert-on-peak-oil.html

I randomly saw that Erik Hassle, an artist I have screamed about before, quietly released a new album earlier this month. And… it is awesome. Especially this song, which is a few years old, but nonetheless is on the album, and reminded me how amazing it, and he is. Such a Prince quality to his voice, and it is giving me life!! Welcome back Erik!

sotd: Kelly Clarkson – Piece by Piece (Idol version)
by duane • • 0 Comments
Sometimes, the emotion of a song is so palpable, that even the artist singing it gets choked up. This song from her most recent album of the same title, is beautiful, and certainly one of my favorite from the album, but this performance is just, wow. And she released a new version of it, much more stripped like this performance, and it is heartbreakingly beautiful. I love artists that are this talented, and still in touch with their journey and themselves. Kelly Clarkson is truly a music idol, not just the first American one.

Not often do I stumble on a new artist that completely takes me by storm, and I become instantly, obsessively, incessantly transfixed on their voice, their music, and need to hear everything I can get my hands on by them. Well, that's exactly what happened when my buddy Jamie told me to listen to Troye Sivan. Sivan is a 20 year old, out, Australian actor, singer/songwriter who's song Wild, which has a beautiful, hauntingly touching video, has me completely obsessed, and after hearing his two EPs, TRXYE and Wild, has me incredibly hungry to hear more from this incredibly talented young singer.

Good God, I love this man. His voice is so pure and unflinchingly beautiful, it hits to the very core of my being when I hear him sing. This is a song off of his upcoming album, If I Should Go Before You, which, needless to say, I am greatly anticipating. I have read, and after hearing the first four songs, that he is going in a bit of a different, more hardened direction, where there are less acoustically driven songs, but I love everything that I have heard so far, and I know it will be like the rest of his stuff… simply amazing. I am excited for whatever direction Dallas takes us in… wherever we are going, I am there!

You know how you hear a song, and you aren't immediately blown away for some reason, but then you hear it again later, and you think, "what was I thinking? This is amazing!!"? Well, this song is one of those songs. I have been loving several of Years and Years' songs off of their great album Communion, but for whatever reason, this one didn't capture me at first; but all of that has changed. I cannot help but be completely overtaken by this fantastic gem every time it comes up on my playlist, and I have to jam out and dance around whenever I hear it. This is an excellent summer jam!!

sotd: Sia – Elastic Heart
by duane • • 0 Comments
It's amazing to me, how an amazing video can make me OBSESSED with a song, even a song that I had previously, erroneously, overlooked. After seeing this video, much like after I saw the video for Chandelier, I was entranced, and I have had Elastic Heart on repeat ever since. There is something about Maddie Ziegler that is captivating; she is a magnificent dancer, and really captures the emotion of the choreography beautifully. Also, the song is gorgeous.
Also, to think that people have issues with this video is bullshit. It is obviously a powerful emotional statement that Sia felt the need to place her incredible artistic spin on, and I found it breathtaking. To me, it appears to be a very emotional, and raw, interaction between a girl and her father, and Shia's emotional acting is intense and vulnerable. Somehow, people got pedophilia out of this, and I am honestly just shaking my head wondering why. Sia ended up apologizing for the video, which incenses me; this is art, beautiful, emotive, and intensely personal art. Shame on you if you felt the need to turn it into something else. Sia, keep doing what you are doing, because you are a true artist, and a magnificent one, at that.

Let's be honest, this is not just a song of the day kind of a song; it has been my song of the moment since it first came out. I have been living for this song, and after seeing the INCREDIBLE video, I seriously cannot get enough. Rarely, there is a song that is in heavy rotation on the radio, and I turn it all of the way up each time it is on; but this is one of those songs. Hearing Sara Bareilles' amazing cover of this recorded a one of her recent concerts has only made me love this incredible song even more. Check out the video, and the incredible talent of the dancer, Maddie Zeigler, as well:
Also, this is up for video of the year at the MTV video awards; coming up; if it doesn't win, there doesn't really need to be a video awards for MTV anymore, because THIS is what music videos used to be all about, and unfortunately, few capture the musicality of the song this perfectly anymore. Bonus: check out Sia singing/the video being recreated live on Ellen; WOW.

Yay or Nay? Queen Charlotte
Johann Zoffany paints Queen Charlotte (1766) and her slender frame showing off her husband's miniature. But how can one even pay attention to that bauble amongst all that ribbon and lace. Yay or Nay?
22 comments:
Oh my goodness, I keep missing these or forgetting to vote! My sincere apologies.
Hmm, when done in good taste, lace is rarely overdone by 18th century standards I think--quite lovely! I know many didn't consider Queen Charlotte a great beauty, but I think the overall look of her outfit is graceful, from the soothing blue shade of the ribbon at her neck and full skirts, to the unusual earrings and restrained hairstyle. The long white gloves, and of course--the miniature visible on her wrist are elegant as well. So overall, a definite Yay!This ensemble works for me and I think part of the reason is the lace is confined to the dress/neckline. Her coiffure is left unadorned to show off the style rather than cover it with more lace making the entire look overwhelming so, YAY.
An overall stunning look and she carries it off beautifully.- Miss HonneteDecember 5, 2010 at 9:39 PM
I'm liking that soft baby blue color, because it completly matches the color of her skin. She has used as many ribbon as any fashionable lady of her time would have done. She looks sweet as pastry, just like Marie Antoinette as a cupcake(a comparison made by one of Louis XVI aunts)
ReplyDelete I'm a huge fan of Queen Charlotte, so it's a bit hard for me to separate my admiration for the woman from the outfit. And there is so much to love in the outfit: the colour is fabulous, the silhouette graceful, the details so cunning (I love, love, love that you can see the outline of her second miniature through her glove), but...
...while it is a fabulous dress, a few of the details are completely off. I hate moire or watered silk. It's just not delicate enough for the rococo. And the lace neck ruffle is ridiculous - the lace doesn't match her other lace, it is out of proportion to the outfit, and in order to squash it in the artist had to perch her head at an anatomically improbably distance from the rest of her body.
So Nay, because, while it is a pretty dress, this era has done it better.- AnonymousDecember 6, 2010 at 7:30 AM
I'm going to say Yay because I love the dress and don't think the lace and ribbons are too much, however I'm not 100% sold on the neck ribbon and lace, that may be a bit too much.
ReplyDelete - Madame ConstantDecember 6, 2010 at 9:33 AM
Yay from me. Thank you, Miss Honnette, you made my Monday morning brighter with your comment that "she looks sweet as pastry" and the Queen as a cupcake. Yum!

Talking Sequins & Hair.
My hair is finally getting to the point where it's long enough that I remember why I chopped it off in the first place. This hair is HIGH maintenance. An hour blow dry is about enough to make anyone buzz their head right off. Did I say head? I meant hair. Sort of. BUT I will not make the same mistake again because once my hair is done.. I kind of love it. Most days. Also, chopping it off again just isn't worth the hysterics until two a.m. Just ask my sister.. and my mom..and my dad. Oy vey.
But also, can we take a minute to admire the sequin elbow patches on this shirt. Que moment of silence.
Ok did you take it all in? SEQUIN ELBOW PATCHES. It's like a dream come true. Or at least something so happy it will make you forget you just dried your hair for a solid sixty minutes.
Anyhow, A Happy Monday to you and yours. Let's get back at it.

You hair looks gorgeous and I LOVE the elbow patches! :)
The Style Storm
<3, Christinayou are freaking adoooorable! and i'm starting to feel the same way about my hair.

anywho, keep up the cuteness :)

Developed from the author's 30 years of teaching a graduate-level intermediate heat transfer course, Analytical Heat Transfer explains how to analyze and solve conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer problems. Suitable for entry-level graduate students, the book fills the gap between basic heat transfer undergraduate courses and advanced heat transfer graduate courses. The author places emphasis on modeling and solving engineering heat transfer problems analytically, rather than simply applying the equations and correlations for engineering problem calculations. He describes many well-known analytical methods and their solutions, such as Bessel functions, separation of variables, similarity method, integral method, and matrix inversion method. He also presents step-by-step mathematical formula derivations, analytical solution procedures, and numerous demonstration examples of heat transfer applications. By providing a strong analytical background, the text enables students to tackle complex engineering heat transfer problems encountered in practice. This analytical knowledge also helps them to read and understand heat transfer-related research papers.

Moment of Outrage for the Day

There's a difference between a journalist and a "talking head"...I haven't watched the clip, but the still shot is of Glenn Beck, who is paid money to drum up controversy from his side of the political spectrum. That's not journalism...
- Dawno said...
Yes, I do know that - but the channel is called Fox News, not Fox Opinion and not everyone out there is nearly as discriminating as you and I between what's journalism and what's punditry.

Ooh, I'm with you. I'm a moderate who lives in the reddest city of the reddest county of the reddest state in the union - which makes me a flaming liberal here. ;-) I'm amazed at the cr@p that people actually believe. No, it scares me.

Julie! Great to see you!
I used to live in a very conservative town, so I know your pain! Currently living in a very liberal area and hate that even 'moderate' is a pejorative to some of them because the far right wingnuts have given us all a bad rep. - 10:10 AM

Heh, there's also a channel called the Sci-Fi Channel, and we know how well that pertains to what they actually show on there...wrestling?
I imagine each one of them couldn't care less what they are, journalists or not. As long as they keep putting huge checks in the bank, they'll keep doing the same thing they were before. - 4:10 PM

That (SyFy *cough*) is sadly true and I'm outraged about it as well! :-)
And no argument about the $. They're all sell outs. I had friends in journo school in college, they were all resigned to being poor but doing what they loved. - 6:32 PM

AFTER recent showings of contemporary German, Italian, French, Spanish and Australian art, we now have Swiss art - sort of. ''Fri.Art'' is the first large exhibition of contemporary Swiss art in New York in 15 years. It is, however, a very particular exhibition, selected by Michel Ritter, a film installation artist living near Fribourg, one of the Swiss cities that helped finance the show - which helps to explain its title ''Fri.Art.''
In spite of all the good will that went into it, the show is confused. The organizers state in the catalogue that the exhibition ''isn't intended to be a reflection of contemporary Swiss Art.'' Further on, however, ''Fri.Art'' is referred to as an ''overlook of art 'made in Switzerland.' '' In another catalogue preface, the artists in the show are presented by Bruno R. Weber, the Swiss cultural counselor, as something like Swiss artistic ambassadors.
The most coherent part of the exhibition is at Franklin Furnace, 112 Franklin Street, through June 8. The 17 artists whose work has appeared or will appear there are all idea-oriented. The second of the three installments, through tomorrow, is devoted to Rut Himmelsbach and Anna Winteler, whose use of photographs and interest in questioning visual perception, sometimes with juxtapositions of lyrical images, is likely to be familiar to many people in New York.
What is less clear is the group of eight Swiss painters - including Gregoire Muller, Markus Raetz and Meret Oppenheim, whose ''Fur-Lined Tea Cup'' is one of the landmarks of Surrealism - at the Clocktower, 108 Leonard Street, through June 2. Why these artists and not others? And what relation do the two shows have to each other and to contemporary art in Switzerland as a whole?
The exhibition badly needed some kind of overview of contemporary Swiss art so that we could place the works, know why the choices were made and why many regions and approaches - including sculpture in general - were not included. Even with the Conceptual artists at Franklin Furnace, such a text is essential because space limitations make it possible to show only a handful of artists at one time.
The one constant throughout the three installments at Franklin Furnace is a display of Dieter Roth's books. Although Roth has been a leader of the Swiss avant-garde for 30 years, he is largely unknown in New York. He is an engaging, effusive figure who works in alternative media and combines a speculative, sometimes brooding intelligence with a very immediate, physical and occasionally playful approach to materials, textures and sounds.
The place of honor at the Clocktower is given to Meret Oppenheim. She was affiliated with the Surrealists, and she has retained her faith in dream as the main source of insight and inspiration. Her works in this show are delicate, introspective and sometimes evocative, with many of the strengths and weaknesses that result from a commitment to images emerging from the imagination ready made.
The Clocktower also presents the elegantly provocative perceptual ambiguities of Markus Raetz and two large paintings by Gregoire Muller, the only Swiss artist in these two exhibitions who lives in New York. Muller has become increasingly involved with the human figure and the way in which problems of form and composition make it possible to explore both broad-based, political subject matter and the self. In his ''Brawl (British Coalstrike),'' with its strong echo of Antonio Pollaiuolo's 15th-century engraving ''Battle of the Nudes,'' the paint process becomes a way of experiencing violence, of identifying with extreme and opposing states of being, and finally of using the resulting awareness to bring a loaded political subject to life.
''Fri.Art,'' which included a film, video and performance festival, was made possible by support from Pro Helvetia, the Swiss equivalent of the National Endowment for the Arts; many other Swiss and American organizations and corporations. The Clocktower, between Lafayette and Broadway, is open Thursday through Sunday from 12 to 6. Franklin Furnace is open Tuesday through Friday from 12 to 6 and Saturday from 1 to 6. Also of interest this week: ''Sculpture'' (Paula Cooper Gallery, 155 Wooster Street): This fine exhibition provides all the evidence anyone would want for the continuing vitality of Minimalism. It includes one sculpture each by Carl Andre, Robert Grosvenor, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt, Joel Shapiro, Tony Smith and Jackie Winsor. All the works are based on simple geometrical forms, usually a rectangle or square. Because the sculptures are neverthless so distinct, the exhibition makes us concentrate not only on content but also on general questions of material, texture and proportion.
Judd's 1985 sculpture is a 10-unit, stepladderlike, galvanized iron and Plexiglas wall piece (only eight units have been installed because of space limitations). The initial impression of purity, lightness and regularity is undermined by the clarity of the Plexiglas panels on the top and bottom of each rectangular unit. The more we look through the Plexiglas, the more the bottom seems to drop out of it emotionally. Something we rely on seems to be running through our fingers like water.
Tony Smith's six-foot-square 1962 black steel box called ''Die'' hasn't been seen in New York for some time. It is a playful - the cube is the shape of dice - and deathly piece. It resembles a block of stone from which statues of Egyptian pharoahs were carved. It feels like a block of stone in which someone is buried alive.
Grosvenor's 1977-78 rectangular sculpture consisting of three rows of six creosote-painted black beams suggests another direction. The beams lie there like blocks of wood waiting to be used, for a ship, perhaps. But they also seem insistent, anxious and yet totally self-contained, capable of orienting and altering any space in which they would be placed. (Through June 28, except for the Sol LeWitt, which leaves June 1.) ''Twentieth Anniversary Retrospective Exhibition'' (New York Studio School, 8 West Eighth Street): Anniversary exhibitions are usually little more than a way in which institutions call attention to themselves. This one is different. The list of more than 60 past and present teachers and students at the Studio School is impressive, but so is the quality and range of the work. The exhibition suggests the continued potential of Cubism, Abstract Expressionism and the model as pedagogical bases upon which artists can build.
The list of painters who have taught at the school includes Philip Guston, George McNeil, Jack Tworkov, Alex Katz and Elaine de Kooning. The sculptors include Peter Agostini, William Tucker, David Hare, Reuben Nakian, Sidney Geist, Lee Tribe and George Spaventa. One of the high points of the show is the juxtaposition of sculptures by two other teachers, Christopher Cairns and Jonathan Silver. Silver's ''Model for a War Memorial'' is a wild piece that is a combination of Egyptian statury, Piranesi, Cubism, Duchamp-Villon and Freud.
Former students in the show include established artists like Richard Bosman, Judy Rifka, David Reed and Helen Miranda Wilson and artists who are just beginning to gain reputations, such as Glenn Goldberg, Richard Mock, Michael McKeown, Joyce Pensato, Garry Nichols, Elena Sisto and Emily Cheng. What almost all the artists have in common - and what makes this show so striking - is an ease and freedom with materials and craft that is now quite rare. (Through May 31.) Bill Barrett (Kouros Gallery, 831 Madison Avenue, at 69th Street): One of the most intriguing aspects of this exhibition is the way it enables us to follow the sculptor Bill Barrett through different materials. Barrett begins by modeling in wax, then casting the wax in bronze. His bronzes are small, quirky, experimental and figurative. They strongly suggest Daumier.
The next stage involves blowing up the bronzes in cut, bent, welded and polished aluminum. The sculptures are lighter now and closer in form and structure to Cubism and David Smith. The restless energy subsides, to the point where the works seem classical. However, these aluminum pieces seem far more like models than the bronzes. And sometimes the appearance in aluminum of a shape and movement that was originally formed in wax is bizarre.
The final stage is the large-scale sculpture we see in photographs. On this scale - there is a monumental sculpture by Barrett at New Dorp High School in Staten Island - the personal and figurative aspects diminish even more, the movement becomes more airy, and the effect is increasingly architectural. In addition, the works suddently become very American, with a lightness and directness that has been characteristic of mainstream American sculpture since Minimalism. (Through June 1.)

Ben Duckett today flies out to Spain with twelve other professional cricketers from ten other counties as part of the 2016 Tom Maynard Academy. For ten days the group will work on a carefully planned programme covering technical skills, strength and conditioning and both individual and group activity. The trip will culminate in two Twenty20 matches between the Tom Maynard Academy XI and a Spanish national side.
Somerset Director of Cricket Matthew Maynard will head the delivery of the programme assisted by former Australian all-rounder and current Gloucestershire Assistant Head Coach Ian Harvey and, it is hoped, by former Leicestershire, Kent & England wicket-keeper/batsman Paul Nixon. All three were involved in the Tom Maynard Academy in each of the two previous years when Northamptonshire players Alex Wakely and Rob Keogh were involved. Ben will also be taking part in sessions led by Jamie Dalrymple, former Glamorgan captain and Middlesex and England all-rounder on leadership, sports psychology and dressing room dynamics. Ireland's former Head of Performance and now Millfield School's Head of Cricket Coaching, Mark Garaway will be back to carry out personality profiling and to support the 2016 intake. Mike Fatkin, one of the Trustees of the Tom Maynard Trust and a former CEO at Glamorgan will provide management support for Matthew and help the players to understand some of the off-field pitfalls of being a professional sportsperson. Former England Head Physiotherapist Dean Conway will oversee the fitness and physical work whilst the group is in Spain.
Once again, the 2016 programme is being funded in its entirety by the Trust. Matthew Maynard said "We are delighted again to have had such fantastic support from the counties and I'm really looking forward to working with another group of young cricketers as we continue to establish the Rom Maynard Academy as an integral part of the ECB's and the counties' player development pathways. There are some very knowledgeable people involved in delivering the programme and the quality of the facilities at Desert Springs continues to improve year on year. A large proportion of the lads who have come through the Academy have gone on to play senior level cricket and I have no doubt the experience will be of real benefit to the twelve cricketers involved as they approach pre-season.

Liquid / gel soap
2 cups Soap Flakes, 1/2 gallon of water, 2 tbsp glycerin
Mix ingredients together in a large pot over low heat, stirring occasionally until the soap has dissolved. Transfer to a jar and cover tightly.
General all purpose liquid cleaner I
1 tbsp Soap Flakes, 1 quart warm or hot water. To make stronger also add: 2 tbsp borax, 1 tsp lemon juice, or white vinegar
Dissolve the Soap Flakes in the water and add the other ingredients.
General all purpose liquid cleaner II
1/4 cup Soap Flakes, 3/4 cup hot water, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp tea-tree extract, 2 tbsp isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol
Dissolve the Soap Flakes in the water and add the other ingredients.
Dish washing (by hand)
2 cups Soap Flakes, 1 gallon of water
Put Soap Flakes into a large pot, add water and stir. Heat over medium heat stirring occasionally until soap is dissolved. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Let cool. Store in tightly covered container. Add a little white vinegar to your dishwater when you wash dishes to cut grease.
Maintaining leather and woven cord seats
2 tbsp Soap Flakes, 1 quart boiled water
Dissolve the Soap Flakes into the water.
Wash the surface gently using a soft cloth or sponge wrung out in the solution when water is warm. Without further washing, allow the furniture to dry at room temperature so the soap solution is absorbed into the leather or papercord. It is important that leather and papercord are not drenched in the solution and that surfaces are moistened evenly to avoid staining as the surface dries. Repeat the process if the leather is badly soiled.
Maintaining soap-finished furniture
1 tbsp Soap Flakes, 1 quart warm water
Dissolve the Soap Flakes into the water.
Clean using a cloth wrung out in the solution. For heavily-soiled furniture, a nylon scouring pad can be used. Cleaning along the direction of the wood grain. The furniture should not be soaked with the solution, and surplus residue should be wiped away. Never use ferruginous materials. It is recommended that the furniture is cleaned in this way at least once a year, so that over time the wood absorbs more and more soap thus making the piece more repellent to marks or staining.
Note that the recipes presented here should be used as a starting point in your experimentation. Soap Flakes have many uses. It is best to discover your own best mixtures and dosages through trial and error until you achieve the performance you desire. Also note that gel recipes using Soap Flakes tend to create a thick gel. There is no practical way to adjust the thickness.
