British bluegrass acts are thin on the ground, but London-based outfit The Wagon Tales have been plying their trade since they were formed in 2007 and came together via encounters with jazz-related musicians. They are the brainchild of double bassist Ben Somers and banjoist Joe Auckland, both of whom double up on vocals. Individually the band members have gained useful experience in a wide range of musical fields and these include performing with the English Chamber Orchestra, Nitin Sawney, Dr John, Dub Colossus and Dizzie Rascal which is a vast panorama of styles.
This new CD of all original compositions captures where the band are at and this means soaking up the influences of some of the all-time greats of the bluegrass world from arguably the creator of the genre, Bill Monroe and the famous Stanley Brothers through to Emmylou Harris who cut some choice bluegrass music in the late seventies and early eighties. A new generation of bluegrass musicians in the US have emerged over the last ten-fifteen years with a major catalyst to activity being the soundtrack to the Coen Brothers film 'O Brother where art thou' which featured the likes of Alison Krauss and her group Union Station, the folksy hues of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, and a host of other names. The Wagon Tales specialise in tight arrangements and close vocal harmonies with all acoustic instrumentation befitting the genre. They excel on the gentler paced songs such as the gently lilting 'Slowly slowly' and it is unusual to hear a trumpet featured here, but it certainly blends in well. A folksy ballad, 'Butterflies' provides the opportunity for joint lead vocalist Kate Robinson to take centre stage. Instrumentally there is a good deal of promise for the future and plucking banjo and fiddle unite on the excellent 'Trading water' and the subtle inclusion of non-traditional elements will surely help the group to forge its own distinctive identity. Close harmonies abound on 'Carry that load' with a neat fiddle solo. The Wagon Tales have already performed at a Swedish folk festival as well as Glastonbury and fit neatly into the new folk revival movement that has gained new impetus since the mid-late 1990s.

I saved this leaftlet the Obama campaign was handing in 2008 because I knew it will come in handy
That leaflet that was the net change after 2 elections (1994 and 200) was circulated by the Obama campaign.
After telling Marion Berry in 2009 that this will be different than 1994 because "This time you got ME"
Well, this is what "ME" got in just one election
Senate – add one seat from last December special election – 6+1
and 13 state legislatures.
8 years of the Clintons vs 2 years of Obama! With the media investigating Clinton non-stop and making Obama the Messiah little difference.
Of course, Obama doesn't think this is his fault and is ready to compromise some moore
But the president is said to not view the Republican wave as a personal rebuke. Rather, he sees it as an indication of continued economic anxiety and an admonition for both parties to work together. Some of the "no compromise" rhetoric Republicans are using is a misreading of the public mood, a senior White House official said.
It was only Clinton's fault back them as IACF.
And about that economic anxiety – whose job was to fix that? Clinton's?

When you knock down a wall to let in your pet lion, how do you keep the other predators out?
Answer: You can't.
That's a simplified version of the logic behind the reasoning in an article from the Baptist Press. The article says that there is no legal basis for reediting marriage to include two men or two women that does not open the door for virtually any other innovation.
I agree with this, btw. The legal twisting and turning necessary to overturn almost every marriage law in this country require destroying the institution as the legal entity that we have known it for at least 2 millennia. What we put in its place after that will be wide open.
The move to legalize polygamy has been quietly racketing up for quite some time and it's coming from the same folks who are pushing gay marriage beginning, of course, with lawsuits from the ACLU and television shows normalizing polygamy such as Big Love and Sister Wives.
The Baptist Press article says in part:
by Michael FoustWASHINGTON (BP) — Redefining marriage to include same-sex couples would jettison the rationale and logic behind prohibitions on polygamous marriages, according to several friend-of-the court briefs urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the traditional definition of marriage …… "Ultimately, there is no principled basis for recognizing a legality of same-sex marriage without simultaneously providing a basis for the legality of consensual polygamy or certain adult incestuous relationships," reads one of the briefs, filed by the Christian legal group Liberty Counsel. "In fact, every argument for same-sex marriage is an argument for them as well."… A friend-of-the-court brief signed by 18 state attorneys general also briefly warns about the potential legalization of polygamy if gay marriage is legalized. The brief — which supports Prop 8 — says the traditional definition of marriage is tied to the fact that only a man and woman can reproduce, thus continuing society's very existence. The state has an interest, the brief says, to see that children are raised, ideally, by the mother and father who beget them. A mother and father in each home is "optimal for children and society at large."
"Once the natural limits that inhere in the relationship between a man and a woman can no longer sustain the definition of marriage, the conclusion that follows is that any grouping of adults would have an equal claim to marriage," the attorneys general brief states, arguing that marriage no longer would be about the needs of children but about the desires of adults.Liberty Counsel's brief quotes 19th century Supreme Court cases that upheld the federal government's ban on polygamy in Utah. Among them were Reynolds v. United States (1878) and Murphy v. Ramsey (1885). In the 1885 case, the justices affirmed the traditional definition of marriage, writing that laws are "wholesome and necessary" when they are established on the basis of the idea of the family as "consisting in and springing from the union for life of one man and one woman in the holy estate of matrimony." The court called traditional marriage "the sure foundation of all that is stable and noble in our civilization."Liberty Counsel asserted that "when the traditional definition of marriage as that between one man and one woman is reversed to include other marriages, the state is left with little, if any, justification for other laws restricting marriage."

A deterrence of dog ownership is not wanting to clean up the fur that dogs shed. Another deterrence is being allergic to the dander in their fur or the saliva in their mouth. Both of these deterrents can be solved at the same time.
There are several breeds of dogs that do not drool often, nor do they shed. These dogs were usually bred to be hypoallergenic for people who were allergic to dogs, however, these dogs are also very clean dogs.
If you are looking for a nice clean dog that you do not have to clean up after, try these breeds.
Be aware that all puppies will pee and poop in your house until properly house broken. If you do not want the chore of house breaking a puppy, buy and already house broken dog.
The dachshund, or as it is called "the wiener" dog is a great dog for people who want to keep a clean house. The dachshund has a very short, smooth coat making them shed no more than a human does on a daily basis. They also have relatively little dander, however are not all together a perfect hypoallergenic breed.
The dachshund is a very bright and playful dog, but because of their spine, they are greatly prone to back problems. Things like jumping up on the couch can cause them to slip a disk. A dachshunds' food intake also has to be monitored closely, as they gain weight quickly and this can worsen back problems.
The dachshund come from 17th century Germany where they were bred for hunting foxes and boar. Their low frame allowed them to move through the bushes easier than other dogs. The word 'dach' is german for badger and 'hund' is german for dog. So thus the badger dog was born.
While their long frame may make them look lazy, but they are far from it. They love to run around outside, so if you live in the city, you may have to walk them often.
Boston Terrier
The boston terrier is a sweet and loving breed that is a great household pet. The boston terrier has a short coat and will hardly ever shed. This makes them a great dog if you do not want to clean up pet hair or are allergic to dander.
However, on hotter days or after an intense play session, the boston terrier can drool and snort from their compact face like the bulldog that they were bred from. This is bad news if you are allergic to dog slobber. If you are, this may not be the dog for you.
the boston terrier was bred between a terrier and a bulldog, thus the loveable bulldog face and the slim terrier size. They were originally bred to be fighting dogs, however over the years they have became surprisingly gentle.
Unlike other terriers, the boston terrier is not a little ball of bursting energy. It seems the mellow bulldog genes were dominant in the boston terrier because they do not have excessive amounts of energy.
If you want a dog that is playful, but not constantly begging to play, this is a great dog.
Miniature Schnauzer
Miniature Schnauzers are great dogs. They have been bred to be hypoallergenic dogs these days so if you have allergies you will not have to worry. They may look like something that is prone to shedding, but not so much. If you neglect too grow them, they will shed a bit more than the other dogs on this list, but if you do groom them they will hardly ever shed. Miniature schnauzers can be shaven and after you do so, they will hardly ever shed again and the hair will stay nice, short, and smooth for awhile.
The miniature schnauzer was bred for no particular reason. They did not turn up until the 19th century. Regular schnauzers and miniature pinschers were bred together in 19th century Germany, mostly just to make a smaller schnauzer like dog.
Miniature schnauzers are massive balls of energy. They love to play, so if you want a dog that you can play with lots, these are a good option. They are so full of energy, however; that they can go a bit stir crazy if you do not play with them.
They are very big attention seekers.
Scottish Terrier
Scottish terriers are sweet little dogs. They may not look like it but they are quite scrappy as well, they make a loyal, but slightly ineffective watch dog. The Scottish terrier will shed more than any other dog on this list, but it is by far not the worse shedding dog. they do however, have very little dander. If you do not mind sweeping up a little hair now and then, these dogs make great little companions.
The scottish terrier was bred long and low to be able to follow foxes and badgers back into their dens, they originally turned up in 1800's in, you guessed it, Scotland.
Scottish, like most terriers, have a lot of energy. Since they were bred to chase foxes all the way to their holes, they love to dig. A terrier should be walked regularly and your yard, if you have one, should have a very secure fence. The fence should have wire or cement on the ground around it or your terrier might just dig its way out.
Airedale Terrier
The airedale terrier may look to have a long coat, but it is extremely wiry. Wiry hair, unlike softer dog hairs does not shed much if at all. They make a perfect hypoallergenic dog and a great clean dog.
The airdale terrier is not a great terrier, they are quite independent dogs. They also love to run around, so if you are an avid hiker or jogger, this is a great dog for you. However, they are particularly curious so always keep them on a leash. They are intelligent does, but easily distracted by things like squirrels.
The airedale terrier was developed from other hunting terriers to be a better hunting terrier. It's wiry coat protected it from water and painful underbrush. However, in the 19th century, they were mostly used as police dogs.
Because of their unique look, they have made popular show dogs.

Colossians (Program #40) – Holding the Head, Out From Whom All the Body Grows With The Growth of God
Consider this interesting phrase from Colossians 2:19 "And not holding the Head, out from Whom all the Body … grows with the growth of God." Well as believers we read such verses and surely none of us will disagree but do we really stop to consider, what is it to hold the Head; and why does it say, "holding the Head" and not holding Christ? Well the answer is that most of us take the Bible for granted. Of course we have our special and favorite passages that that we often quote and understand to some extend. But for the most part, we skim over accepting what it says but not taking the time or the interest to dig and probe and pray over the word. Today we will dig and probe and even pray concerning this crucial and important section of Colossians.

For "The Ridiculist" segment of his show tonight, Anderson Cooper turned to the post-inauguration scandal that rocked the country today. Beyoncé lip-synched the national anthem!
"I respond with a big star-spangled so what?" Cooper said. "As far as I'm concerned, it is Beyoncé's world and we are just living in it."
Clarifying that it was her pre-recorded voice, she just wasn't actually singing live, Cooper continued, "I'm releasing a statement right now saying I just don't care. We got to look at Beyoncé's beautiful face and hear Beyoncé's beautiful voice singing the national anthem. There is only one thing we should say today and that is thank you, Beyoncé. Francis Scott Key himself would send her a fruit basket."
After playing clips of some of the more infamous lip-synching scandals in music history from Milli Vanilli and Ashlee Simpson, Cooper had one final message for anyone questioning Beyoncé's decision. "Talk to me after you've gotten on the stage in front of the president of the United States and hundreds of thousands to sing the national anthem in 40-degree weather."

A healthy attitude towards ourselfves is very crutial to our fitness success and as success in general. When do we have to wake up early and do our exercise even if its 15 minutes, our attitude determines what we gonna do. Staying in bed would be fun, but would that build our endurance and prepare us for success?
What if the only stimuli for achieving better results would be just to be better then anyone. This way climbing the fitness ladder to the highest place, can be lonely. When someone is there and there is no one else, they can end up with a question "Now what?" Taking the time to identify new goals and destinations, can be rewarding, but without them lack of motivation can kick in, and all achieved results seems in vain.
True indeed, there isn't a store where we can buy good health, just gym won't cut it, neither it can't be bought in Walmart and most definatly not in the fast food restaurants. They most likely are where people withdraw health assets, from their health account. If you have a better health you can do lot things, a whole lot better then otherwise, so simple, yet many don't do that.
Is that right on the button? A good looking body is sure nice, you have the attention, and you will great, have higher self-confidence and self-respect. Thought good looking body, serves no useful purpose if the persons attitude isn't a good as he/she looks. With the right kind of good looks, needs to come also humility, humbleness, kindness and care for others. This why he will, not be seen as just " Here I am look at me" , but also have attitude as " Woohoo there are you!"
Isn't that a great seed of wisdom? Imagine someone who is evaluating assets and comes by and says can we do some evaluation of yourself your skills and abilities… We as a person would be practically worth more the all the gold in the earth. Now imagine they say we will give 20 million dollar each year, for the rest of your life. Thought there is a catch, there would be attached a small device that would seamlessly record everything that person does for an entire year. For wrong doing to their body, either fast food intake, too much drinking, etc they would lose 1000 monies. Would a healthy person risk losing money each year?
Wishing is great, and people need to wish, but they should stop there. Nothing replaces action, talent won't, character wont, determination won't only action. I started to write this post and then thought, maybe i will finish it tomorrow. Well if i won't finish it today, what are the chances to finishing tomorrow? So i keep at it even though it after midnight.
I believe that's true. We think of something, make a decision and then act on it. Though yes, there are habitual behavior, where we experience these moments "why did i say that" or "why did i do that" . Just like in the movie Click with Adam Sandler, in our fast paced word we need sometime to stop, and listen what our mind, and body says.

Street 240's tree shaded avenue harbors a unique collection of quality boutiques and souvenir shops, offering Cambodian silks and silk fashions, Southeast Asian art, handicrafts, curios andfurniture. There are a few restaurants, bars, wine shops, bookstores, and travel agencies interspersed along the way. After visiting the Royal Palace, stroll around the corner to explore Street 240. Most of the shops are concentrated along the couple of blocks between Street 19 and Norodom Blvd. At the corner of Street 240 next to the Royal Palace, the Council of Ministers building sits distinctively, particularly photogenic in the late afternoon. Before heading up 240, consider taking a short detour through the park to Wat Botum to see the towering white 'Buddha Relic Stupa'. As you are walking up Street 240 from the Palace area note the well preserved colonial era villas on the south side of the street.

At a recent family gathering, I met a woman who was amazed that an unidentified photograph could be a valuable piece of family history and that it could be identified. She looked at me with astonishment and confessed, "Oh no, I threw them out. I wish I'd known." It's hard to imagine that this charming picture of a Dad and his child could end up in the trash. You can almost hear the father saying, "Look at the camera." Every day someone somewhere throws out ancestral pictorial bounty. It doesn't have to happen. All it takes to prevent the senseless loss of photographs is a little understanding.
Follow the Clues
Each photo tells you things about your ancestors that aren't written in a book or document. From how they wore their hair, to how they posed for pictures. Watch for their photographic tell much like card players in a high stakes game. People have their camera faces, tilting their head a certain way, a particular smile or the way they stand. It's the little things that help us know them as people. Some families always pose in the same place in the yard or like to preen in front of their cars. Photo habits tend to hang around, but can help you identify who's who.
This child's mother likely took other pictures of her on that day and at other moments as well, maybe even an album full. This is all that's left. I found it in a box of unidentified pictures at a photo sale.
If your relatives never left a name on the back of a photo it might be because they knew them well and didn't need the reminder of who they were. It could be those nameless faces are people you need to know too. Before you toss them out answer the following questions and then take action. Begin by asking family if they know who's who using telephone, email and social media for starters. Then dig in and try to discern details.
Who Took It?
There's no photographer's name on this picture, but if there were it's possible to learn more about him or her. A photographer's address often includes a place. Establish when a photographer was in business by researching them online. Finding information on the photo studio online might come with an added bonus—other pictures of your ancestors posted by distant cousins. You might even discover a captioned version of your mystery photo.
Unfortunately, the mother (who likely took the picture), father and child in this lovely summer image are unknown but it's still possible to put it in a time frame. If there is a snapshot in your collection try to figure out if you have any other pictures taken on the same day by matching up the setting and the people for starters then think about who's behind the camera. Your snap happy relative might be your great grandmother taking pictures with her shiny new Brownie camera circa 1900. You'll be seeing your family through a child's eye.
In this case, it's clear the way Dad's is gesturing at the child that her Mom is trying to capture a timeless snapshot of her daughter.
A candid picture might show other buildings, your grandmother's backyard or even street signs. Knowing where it was taken can be a short cut to figuring out who's depicted. Only one branch of your family may have lived in a certain location. If so, it might be one of them. ''
What are they wearing?
Their personality shines through by the way their clothing choices—stylish, conservative or old fashioned. The Mom dressed her child up in the latest fashion complete with a ruffled bonnet. Dad's wearing a very stylish summer straw hat with a ribbon banded around the crown. He wears his Sunday best suit for this family outing.
Aunt Lil may have always worn her favorite hat while your grandfather wore his best suit the one from his wedding also intended to be his funeral suit. Occupation, cultural identity and economic circumstances also influenced what people wore.
Work clothes marked the man (or woman). Props brought into the studio or supplied provide clues as well. Immigrants often honored their origins in cultural dress at weddings and funerals by wearing special attire. Rich or poor most individuals dressed for the photographer. Women in far-flung areas of the country and the world often knew the latest Paris fashions and modified the styles to fit their budget and location.
Where Was It Taken?
Look on the photograph for details about where it was taken. There are few clues to location in the child's picture, but that's not always the case. Use the photographer address as a guide. There were traveling photographers but most stayed within their community or nearby.
Why Was It Taken?
Even if you know who's in a picture, try to figure out when they posed. That photograph might represent a key moment in their lives. A visit to the studio was part of documenting family milestones from birth to death. Immigration, family reunions, and outings were also photographed. Sometimes individuals went to the studio with friends as an activity and exchanged pictures, just like high school seniors used to.
When Was It Taken?
Once you know when and where the photo studio operated and verified the clothing, you can estimate a time frame come with a list of possible answers to who's in the photo.
This picture may be a complete mystery but the clues add up to tell the story of one family's experience with photography circa 1900. It may not seem like much to go on, but consider the next step—your family history.
If Mom took that image in 1900 and the baby is just walking then it was likely born between 1898 and the early 1900s. Most babies walk between 10 and 18 months. A quick study of you family tree could reveal a limited number of female candidates. The lack of any other children may indicate this little girl is their first child.
All of the answers to these questions bring you closer to telling the story of a picture and your family. Each story is a precious piece of your family history. Putting each of those together is like sewing a quilt. One block of fabric doesn't create one, it's all the blocks together sewn together with thread that holds the whole piece of art together. Each photo is a block, the thread is how the story weaves them together and the piece of art is you, the current generation.
Save the life of a photo today by looking at it in a new way and researching its story. Your descendants will thank you for giving them the pictorial context of their lives.

12 February 2010
With an intriguiging weekend of action at the Aviva World Trials and UK Championships ahead, we pick out ten to follow from the action at Sheffield.
Richard Buck – 400m
Local man Buck performs better and better each year, and this indoor season should be no exception. Expect the 23-year-old to qualify for the World Indoor Championships without any problems although his history at the EIS is chequered, having won the last two years following disqualification in 2007.
Tom Lancashire – 3000m
The 3000m will be a highly competitive race and Lancashire is taking on this distance at the Aviva World Trials and UK Championships for the first time. He ran a lot of indoor races at college in the US however and should be strong after a winter spent doing cross-country – the Bolton man finished fourth at the Great Edinburgh International last month.
Mark Lewis-Francis – 60m
The 27-year-old Birchfield Harrier is back healthy and nearing his best shape. A brilliantly talented junior, he finished third at the World Indoors aged 18 in 2001. Injury put paid to his progress in the last couple of years but hopefully 2010 will see a return to form for the Athens Olympic relay gold medalist.
Chris Tomlinson – long jump
Silver medallist at the World Indoors two years ago, the Middlesbrough man has already kicked off 2010 with a win, jumping 7.99m at the Aviva International in Glasgow last month. He's won this title six times before although he'll have to watch out for British outdoor record holder Greg Rutherford.
Jenny Meadows – 800m
The Wigan Harrier has won at Sheffield four times already, and after a victorious performance in Glasgow at the Aviva International Match two weeks ago she'll be raring to go. The World Indoors will be a key target, especially after medalling outdoors in Berlin last year.
Kate Dennison – pole vault
The Sale Harrier lines up in Sheffield aiming for her fifth consecutive national title. Last year she showed terrific form, breaking the British indoor record three times, including at the EIS. And 2010 looks to be no different - she cleared 4.57m in Germany last month, adding 8cm to her record from 2009 as she cemented her position in the world's top six.
Harry Aikines-Aryeetey – 60m
The London-born sprinter has been in consistent form in the early stages of 2010, running sub 6.70 in his last three races. His season's best came at the Birmingham Games with 6.67 and if he can equal his Personal Best, which was set two years ago, then he stands a strong chance of boarding the plane to Doha.
Greg Rutherford – long jump
Following a change of training group and attending the UKA warm-weather training camp in South Africa, the Marshall Milton Keynes athlete is confident he can begin 2010 as he left 2009, which included a new British record at the World Championships. Only one competition so far has seen Rutherford jump 7.82m in Vienna.
Helen Clitheroe – 1500m
Clitheroe has joined Jenny Meadows' training group for this season and it would appear the change is already reaping rewards. The 36-year-old was dominant in her 3000m win at the Aviva International Match in Glasgow and four days later she won the 1500m in Germany. Current form would therefore suggest she starts as one of the favourites for the 1500m.
Samson Oni – high jump
The Brixton-based athlete has cleared the World Indoor Selection Standard of 2.28m three times already this year. He didn't compete indoors at Sheffield last season but in 2008 he won the World Indoor Trials with a Personal Best of 2.30m and also won the national title as a 19-year-old in 2001.
The Aviva World Indoor Trials and UK Championships are sold out, however, you can catch a majority of these British stars at the Aviva Grand Prix at the National Indoor Arena, Birmingham on Saturday 20th February. Tickets are available by phone on 08000 556 056 or online at www.uka.org.uk

This week, MHSAA officials coordinator Sam Davis explains how competitive cheer rules have been written to keep participants as safe as possible.
Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment - Cheer Safety - Listen
Cheerleaders – usually at the college level – get in the sports headlines whenever an accident occurs causing a serious injury. In Michigan, the sport of Competitive Cheer doesn't make the news in that regard. Why?
Because this sport, created by Michigan schools, has built in safety guidelines for competition – including the proper matting, rules which prohibit dangerous stunts, and safety judges observing the routines whose responsibility is to detect, record and report safety violations when they occur and to penalize those who commit them. Middle school Competitive Cheer is more restrictive, allowing the focus to be on the fundamentals that will provide a safe foundation when these athletes transition into high school and beyond.
This format is exclusive to Michigan and just another way that high school sports take the extra step to make the games our athletes play as safe as they can possibly be.

My son was recently in the musical production of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory at his junior high school. I went to one of the evening performances and was very impressed with the production. After I returned home, I realized that I had not only seen a great production (put on by 11 and 12 year olds), but I had also been introduced to a great innovator, Willy Wonka.
As you may remember, the fictional character Wonka was the greatest choclatier in the world. He was not only creative but had built a large successful company. He embodied two of the great aspects of innovation. He created new products, and he was able to take them to market.
One of the songs in the play is entitled "Pure Imagination". What a wonderful idea. It was Wonka's ability to spend time in pure imagination that allowed him to innovate. And the time he spent in his imagination fueled his innovation. The crazier and more outlandish the idea, the more time Wonka spent exploring it. After I found the words to the song, I came up what I believe is part of the definition of pure imagination.
Pure Imagination
1. No limits to the possibilities
2. If you want to see paradise simply look around.
3. If you want to change the world, there is nothing to it. Do it!
I have included two versions of the song for you to look at. The first is from the original movie musical. The second is a more modern version with words to follow as you listen. After viewing these, take some time and tap into your underused resource of Pure Imagination.

We have recently added some new classical CDs to our small collection at Arapaki (Manners Street). Come in and flick through them the next time you're in town! The new additions include some compilations by notable singers.
Lise Davidsen. Songs and arias by Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss. Performed by Lise Davidsen.
"'The young Norwegian soprano's voice, silken at the top, rich with deep mezzo colours, pours forth flawlessly as if in one clear, stupendous breath. It's one of the greatest voices I have heard'" (Observer review, printed on CD cover).
Si j'ai aimé. Performed by Sandrine Piau with Le Concert de la Loge.
"[Sandrine Piau's] new project is a recital with orchestra celebrating French songs from the period when they moved from the private salon to the concert hall. Planned in partnership with the Palazzetto Bru Zane, this programme evokes all the vagaries of love experienced by a romantic heroine." (amazon.com)
Lieder, Brahms, Schumann, Mahler. Performed by Renée Fleming.
"Four-time Grammy winner Renée Fleming presents her first full-length Lieder album in almost two decades, featuring a selection of favorite songs from Brahms, Schumann, and Mahler, including Brahm's "Lullaby" and a breathtaking performance of Mahler's Rückert Lieder with Christian Thielemann and the Munich Philharmonic."

Yankees' Clint Frazier cuts flowing locks of red hair
TAMPA, Fla. >> Before taking some cuts Friday, Clint Frazier took a cut.
Frazier's flowing locks of red hair are gone, replaced by a short, curly look after a barber visited the Yankees spring training clubhouse at around 7:15 a.m. The touted prospect made the decision after meeting Thursday with manager Joe Girardi.
"I just felt like it had become somewhat of a focus at camp for him, becoming a distraction and I didn't want it to be anymore," Girardi said. "We have rules in place. In reality, when he was on the field, he met the criteria. I think he made a wise decision because he understands he wants the focus to be on how he plays not how he looked."
The Yankees have had rules since the early 1970s banning long hair and most facial hair, a policy put in place by owner George Steinbrenner.Frazier cut his hair after the Yankees acquired him from Cleveland on Aug. 1 in the Andrew Miller deal, then let it grow during the offseason.
"After thinking to myself and talking to a few people, I finally came to the agreement that it's just time to look like everyone else around here," Frazier said. "I like my hair but I love playing for this organization more."
Frazier is likely to start the season at Triple-A Scranton, where he struggled to a .228 average with three homers and seven RBIs in 25 games after the trade. He said his hair has not been this short since "probably seventh grade."
"If this is my biggest distraction this year, I'm in really good shape," Girardi said. "There's probably a lot of us that wish we had that hair."
Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson, a Yankees special adviser, gave him the 22-year old outfielder a hug after checking out the new style.
"I think this is a great step in the right direction that he's doing," Jackson said. "I thought he was concerned about fitting in with the Yankees and the way we do things. It takes time for all of us to change sometimes."
"I don't know if I could remember back how I thought when I was 22, but I sure was a wild antelope in the woods, that's for sure," Jackson added. "To compare him with what I went through, he may be went through it for a couple of days. Phew, I went through some times for months. It was a tough road for me a long time. It took me a while. He's way ahead of me."
The hair policy remains in place seven years after Steinbrenner's death.
"I think it has value because of tradition," Girardi said. "It's a tradition by a man who meant so much to this organization. It needs to be respected by all of us."
Jackson said one of the greatest comments he ever heard was from former Yankees closer Mariano Rivera, who said "the pinstripes are heavy in New York."
"And I think that Clint understands that," Jackson said.
The Yankees will be donating the cut hair to an organization that makes wigs for children with cancer.

Anime: Black Lagoon V1
Despite being only a couple of years old, Black Lagoon reminded me (visually, at least) of some of the classic show's I watched as a kid: Particularly Battle of the Planets. However I'm sure that if you were to actually compare the two, side by side, they'd be nothing alike – but that's where the artistic style of this series took me. The show's however, are nothing alike.
From the get go, the four episodes on this first volume DVD of Black Lagoon are all action. Quite literally, guns blazing.
While on a 'business trip' to Southeast Asia Rokuro Okajima finds himself an unwitting participant in some of his employers nefarious business dealings. Before he has any clue as to what has happened, Rokuro — later nicknamed Rock — is take hostage by a team of hardened mercenaries who go by the name Lagoon Company: a 'delivery company' who "sometimes break the rules to put food on the table". Even though he's a complete outsider Rock manages to prove his worth to the mercenaries and, when his boss double crosses him, manages to secure a place as part of Lagoon Company.
The first two episodes included in this volume act as something of an extended pilot, setting the scene for the episodes that follow. But with the series starting off with a bang, there's little time spent on developing the characters and I began to worry that, as much fun as these episodes were, the lack of development could render the series a little pointless. Fortunately episodes three and four allow for some time to get to know Rock's new companions.
Dutch is the leader of the Lagoon Company and the captain of the ex-U.S. Navy PT boat (named: Black Lagoon). Dutch is a cool talking Vietnam vet who seems to take a liking to Rock even when he's still, technically, holding him hostage. His demeanour and dimensions allow him to maintain control over the twin Beretta wielding Revy.
Revy is tiny by comparison to Dutch, but she's a far more fearsome character. Put simply, Revy (Rebecca) is barking mad! She delights in the action and danger that her role with the Lagoon Company brings her into contact with. In the later episodes contained on this DVD we get a brief look into Revy's dark past and a sense that she and Rock may become closer as the series progresses – although what form this relationship will take (romantic or sibling-like) is unclear at this point. But even at this early stage it seems apparent that finding out exactly what makes Revy tick is going to be at the heart of this series.
Tech expert Benny completes the group. He's not cut from the same cloth as Revy or Dutch, he's not a gun toting killer. He is a quiet boffin, who attended the University of Florida, which — other than his apparent ability to build or repair anything electronic — is just about all we know of him.
What I found refreshing about Black Lagoon is the fact that it is set in the real world. There are no demons, cyborgs or monsters in this show… well, at least none yet! You wouldn't want to, but these characters inhabit a world that your or I could get to. Sure it's bloody and violent, and the action is a little over the top and unbelievable, but if it wasn't then it wouldn't really be 'action' now, would it?
Along with the first four episodes the Black Lagoon V1 DVD contains both the Japanese (with English subtitles) and English dub audio track, the music video for the show's theme and a fifteen minute 'making of' documentary with the cast and crew behind the English audio.
By the fourth episode the show has settled into a rhythm, the characters haven't been completely exposed yet, but these episodes instil faith that this series will plum deeper. Be warned though, the fourth — Nazi filled — episode will leave you hanging! [source] [source]

The rapid growth of shale gas development has led to an intense and polarizing debate about the merit of shale gas.
At the same time, and essentially independent of shale gas development, countries around the world concluded at the 2012 U.N. Conference on Sustainable Development that the transition to sustainability must be accelerated.
This book asks and suggests answers to a question that has not been systematically analyzed: what laws and policies are needed to ensure that shale gas development helps accelerate the transition to sustainability?

The three-year curriculum provides preparation for career advancement and professional development by delivering a strong cross-functional education in general management. The program also provides knowledge and insights that you can apply immediately at your organization.
Class content incorporates a balance of tested business principles and emerging theories in managerial practice, with an emphasis on the application of business concepts to real-world business situations. Students can focus on advanced marketing or advanced finance by taking electives in the second and third years.
Each cohort in the Evening MBA Program learns in a structured, lockstep delivery format. Students benefit by actively participating in these professional learning communities, which provide an invaluable team-based learning experience, and substantive class discussions.
The curriculum shown is representative of the course of study; specific course offerings may vary.
Refer to the sample calendar to plan for class attendance, the 10-day international trip, and other key program events.
The curriculum equips students with skills and competencies that are foundational to success in general management.
Students will enhance or develop their understanding of the concepts underlying the preparation of financial statements, especially companies regulated by the SEC interested in GAAP reporting. Students will also gain a fundamental understanding of the demand for and supply of financial information and the role of financial information in resource allocation decisions.
This course is required in the first year of the Evening MBA program. The most important learning objectives are to recognize the ethical dimensions of decisions; to apply a structured process for making decisions with ethical dimensions; to develop more awareness of one's own decision-making tendencies; to become more aware of psychological phenomena that affect our moral reasoning; to develop an opinion about corporate social responsibility; to learn how to make organizational cultures more ethical; to prepare to respond to unethical authority; and to consider how businesses can respond to weaknesses in our economic systems.
This course takes a pragmatic approach to introducing students to the principles of risk management and insurance. The course will emphasize the material in the context of seeking to maximize financial results of a business. While most students will not practice specifically in the fields of risk management or insurance, it is important for students to gain knowledge on the subject, have a framework to think about the impact of risk on a business, and to understand methods to manage risk, all to more effectively and comprehensively manage a business. In addition, the subject serves as an effective vehicle to discuss general business topics and decision-making in business.
During their careers, managers spend a significant amount of time either participating in or leading projects. Projects are frequently used as proving-grounds for high-potentials. The skills that are required for project management are often the very same attributes that enable managers to successfully manage a business.
This course demonstrates how economic logic offers powerful and elegant insights into issues relevant to business and to business decision-making. The ultimate goal is to help you develop a framework for the firm and the economy that will allow you to analyze opportunities in a complex economic environment.
Examines the effective management of behavior in organizations. Focuses on the application of theories of leadership and work motivation. Includes critical conceptual and analytical assessment of these theories. Emphasizes the management of work performance, managerial skill building, and enabling followers.
Advances students' analytical and decision-making skills by developing practical spreadsheet models to evaluate business situations. Fundamental topics in probability, statistics, and constrained optimization will be introduced and used as modeling tools via active learning exercises.

Introduces financial management of firms and investment decision making; both theory and practice are emphasized. Topics covered include the financial environment and securities markets, financial statements and analysis, working capital management and capital budgeting, cost of capital, dividend policy, asset valuation, investments, decision-making under uncertainty, and selected topics such as mergers, options, and futures.
Discusses management of the operations function in manufacturing and service organizations. Emphasizes the coordination of resources to improve cost, quality, and customer service. Topics include materials, capacity, project management, operations strategy, forecasting, and process design.
Each year, second- and third-year students select one of three electives: Advanced Finance, Advanced Marketing, or Health Care Management. The electives differ each year so that students can choose to delve deeper into a single subject, or take electives in multiple subjects, in their second and third years in the program. Since courses change from year to year, descriptions are not provided.
An educational highlight of the Wisconsin Evening MBA Program is a required global learning experience. The primary goal of the global learning experience is to provide a firsthand experience of the opportunities and challenges of initiating, continuing, and expanding business abroad. Each year, the destination is selected with attention to the educational opportunities the region provides and worldwide business trends. The trip itself lasts approximately 10 days. The curriculum of the Wisconsin Evening MBA Program, including one course specifically for the trip, helps support the international experience and maximize its value.
The goal of this class is to improve skills and tactics for negotiating by providing both experiential opportunities and conceptual underpinnings associated with various approaches to negotiation. Most of this course is devoted to applying the course concepts in practice through negotiation exercises.
Introduces an integrative approach to strategic management, including strategy formulation/implementation at business unit and corporate levels. Cases, discussion, lecture, and simulation are used to communicate concepts. Emphasizes development of unique tools for analysis of companies and industries, as well as application of knowledge to business problems.
This course studies the policy and practical implications of business law, including the nature and regulation of selected legal areas. An emphasis is placed upon law and economics. Among the topics covered are the legal environment of business, business organizations, employment law, intellectual property law, securities regulation, and the fundamentals of business transactions.
The overall objective of this course is to provide a "capstone" experience that applies the business strategy concepts learned throughout the Wisconsin Evening MBA Program. The course builds on the content covered in the Business Strategy course with a focus on more advanced strategic concepts. The course also includes an active-learning client project practicum in which each team works with a company or organization on high-level strategic issues; emphasis will be placed on analytical thinking, teamwork/leadership, and the dynamics of interaction with a client. Finally, each student will develop a personal strategy plan that clarifies their long-term career plans, applying principles discussed in both strategy courses.

A Letter to the New Year
Hi lovelies,
First post in the amazing twenty sixteen.
I'm so happy that you are here. Looking forward to live in you?!
Check out this amazing ad - warmed my heart.
2015 was such a messy year.
I loved it as much as I hated it.
I was never so miserable than the last year. I lost many things, I changed my jobs every two months, I needed to move out from the flat I called home, my best friends decided they are better without me, I had (have?) a many situations... let's just call the whole thing a life crisis.
I hated the mornings when I woke up, I cried every day.
I lost my hope.
My heart was broken by important people.
And I felt I'm going crazy.
As pathetic as it sounds I truly believed I would be better off dead.
I still don't know how to let people go from my life or how to forgive myself or others.
And I have no idea how to deal with the fact that some people just cutting you out from their life with the reason they love you.
It's so hard to believe that you are enough with a life like that...
But you know what, I think I'll somehow survive this.
I met amazing people in London, many crazy inspirational men and women. You are all awesome.
I worked at workshops, at the LFW, at small companies, big events and I learned so much from everyone there.
I'm so thankful for the people in my life even if some of them are 2000 km away from me.
I wish I would be more. More helpful, more fun, more inspirational.
But I'll try to make myself and this year the best!
So here is my #bestnine2015
Take care!
With love from Fashion Lights ♥

Excel to MySQL: Analytic Techniques for Business Specialization
Turn Data Into Value. Drive business process change by identifying & analyzing key metrics in 4 industry-relevant courses.
Offered By
Skills you will gain
About this Specialization
No prior experience required.
No prior experience required.
There are 5 Courses in this Specialization
Business Metrics for Data-Driven Companies
In this course, you will learn best practices for how to use data analytics to make any company more competitive and more profitable. You will be able to recognize the most critical business metrics and distinguish them from mere data.
Mastering Data Analysis in Excel
Important: The focus of this course is on math - specifically, data-analysis concepts and methods - not on Excel for its own sake. We use Excel to do our calculations, and all math formulas are given as Excel Spreadsheets, but we do not attempt to cover Excel Macros, Visual Basic, Pivot Tables, or other intermediate-to-advanced Excel functionality.
Data Visualization and Communication with Tableau
One of the skills that characterizes great business data analysts is the ability to communicate practical implications of quantitative analyses to any kind of audience member. Even the most sophisticated statistical analyses are not useful to a business if they do not lead to actionable advice, or if the answers to those business questions are not conveyed in a way that non-technical people can understand.
Managing Big Data with MySQL
This course is an introduction to how to use relational databases in business analysis. You will learn how relational databases work, and how to use entity-relationship diagrams to display the structure of the data held within them. This knowledge will help you understand how data needs to be collected in business contexts, and help you identify features you want to consider if you are involved in implementing new data collection efforts. You will also learn how to execute the most useful query and table aggregation statements for business analysts, and practice using them with real databases. No more waiting 48 hours for someone else in the company to provide data to you – you will be able to get the data by yourself!
Offered by
Duke University
Duke University has about 13,000 undergraduate and graduate students and a world-class faculty helping to expand the frontiers of knowledge. The university has a strong commitment to applying knowledge in service to society, both near its North Carolina campus and around the world.

Will I earn university credit for completing the Excel to MySQL: Analytic Techniques for Business Specialization?
Coursera courses and certificates don't carry university credit, though some universities may choose to accept Specialization Certificates for credit. Check with your institution to learn more.
What will I be able to do upon completing the Excel to MySQL: Analytic Techniques for Business Specialization?
You will be able to frame practical business questions that can be answered with data, visualize analytical insights in an informative and compelling fashion, and translate and persuasively communicate insights into actionable recommendations for decision-makers.
What software will I need to complete the assignments?
You will need access to Microsoft Excel 2007 (or a more recent version of Microsoft Excel). We will be using the free Solver plugin for optimization problems, and this functionality is not available in alternative online tools such as Google Sheets. The Specialization will also make use of freely-downloadable software packages such as Tableau.
Will I be able to succeed in this class if I have never taken a statistics, computer science, or programming class?
Yes! We will teach you all the analytical and software tools you need to succeed not only in this class, but also as a business analyst.
Will I be able to succeed in this class if I have never had a job in a business-related field?
Will I learn anything new in this class if I have a graduate degree in statistics, computer science, or math?
Yes. In fact, chances are high that you have never seen the majority of the content in this class. Applying quantitative skills to business contexts requires software, skills, and domain knowledge you are not likely to have been exposed to in graduate school.

Where Is Lindsey? Tiger Woods was spotted kickin' it with ex-wife Elin at an event Sunday.
Via TMZ reports:
Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren haven't been photographed together in an eternity … UNTIL TODAY … and TMZ has the photos.
Woods and Nordegren both showed up at an event in Jupiter, FL for a local youth sports organization. According to our spies, Tiger arrived to the event first with his son and daughter and Elin arrived about an hour later.
We're told that when their paths finally did cross, they chatted together for about 30 minutes and appeared to enjoy each other's company.
Our sources say that once the pair started to get attention, they took off … both leaving in Elin's car.
Things that make ya go hmmmmm. Do you think there is any shot in hell of Elin taking Tiger back?

Super Ways To Make Auto Repair Less Troublesome
If you own a vehicle, then you know that repair can be a pain. Either you have to spend tons of money to have a mechanic make the repairs, or you devote all of your time and energy to doing it yourself. While both strategies can be annoying, the tips in this article can help you decide what to do.
Never underestimate how important it is to carrying an emergency kit inside your vehicle. Your kit should include jumper cables, tire changing tools and maybe some extra gas. In the event that your car were to break down in the middle of the night on a deserted road, bring blankets, batteries, and a flashlight.
Go over your owner's manual and dog ear the most useful pages. This can help prevent a trip to the auto shop if you can fix the issue yourself. The issue may be very simple to fix, saving you time and money.
Every time your car is repaired, no matter why it is, keep a record of the repair. If you have problems later, these records can come in handy. Your car problems may be harder to find and you may have higher repair costs without the records.
You need a spare tire and jack with you all the time. Many newer cars already have them. Being stuck with a flat tire is not something anyone hopes for. Paying for someone to help is expensive. You can save a lot of money by performing tasks yourself.
Don't neglect wiper blades. If your windshield wipers aren't performing up to par, it may be time for new ones. Wiper blades should be replaced a minimum of once per year. If your area receives a lot of rain, then you may need to replace your blades more regularly.
Talk to your friends about their auto repair experiences before choosing a repair shop. Your loved ones might have some good recommendations for you to check out. Still do your homework on whoever they mention. If you don't have a lot of time, take a minute to look online.
Know what the lights on your dash represent. They are located there to assist you, so use them to your advantage. If you ignore them, the problem can get worse.
If you feel that your car has even the smallest of problems, it is smart to get it checked right away. Sometimes a small symptom indicates a much larger problem.
Don't try to diagnose complicated issues. Remember, you're not a professional. Even problems that seem simple to fix may actually be complicated, particularly in newer model cars. Let your mechanic do the diagnosing. You should inform them about what you know, but let them diagnose it.
There is a good way to save money if you are willing to take a risk. Instead of taking your car to a repair shop, take it to the local vocational school. You'll pay much less for having students do work on your vehicle under a licensed mechanic's supervision.
Although the topic of auto repair is not always easy, you can utilize strategies in order to make the process run smoother. The advice contained in this article can help you have a better experience. Both you and your car will be pleased.…
