Fair Game: A relationship between the wife of UVM president Dan Fogel and a top fundraiser is raising questions — and eyebrows — at the state university.
For more than six years, Rachel Kahn-Fogel, wife of University of Vermont [1] president Dan Fogel, sent suggestive emails to a member of the UVM staff assigned to work with her on fundraising and special events.
The emails, furnished by UVM in response to a public records request by Seven Days, detail an unusual emotional attachment between Kahn-Fogel and associate vice president for development and alumni relations Michael Schultz. In a divorce hearing on February 23 in Chittenden family court, Schultz's soon-to-be ex-wife publicly identified Kahn-Fogel as the "other woman" whose sexually charged letters contributed to the dissolution of her marriage.
In March 2010 Pauline Manning found a packet of letters among Schultz's things and read them, hoping to find out who was sending mail to her husband at an Essex Junction post office box she didn't know he had.
"I started reading through it, and it became obvious to me who this person was," Manning told her attorney under questioning.
"And who was this person?" asked her attorney, Mary Kirkpatrick.
"This person was the wife of the university president, Rachel Kahn-Fogel," replied Manning.
"Was it explicit?" asked Kirkpatrick.
"It was very explicit," said Manning. "It said, 'Taste me, I want to taste you, let me feel your long, muscle-y arms on my body.' There was also a picture of a house they both should be in, and the words 'my darling, my love' for 30 pages, excuse me, 31 pages, ad nauseam."
Additional clues led Manning to conclude the unsigned letters came from Kahn-Fogel, such as references to a recent UVM athletic event in Connecticut that Schultz and Kahn-Fogel attended together.
In his capacity as a UVM employee, Schultz was often assigned to staff events Kahn-Fogel attended. In fact, according to emails obtained by Seven Days, Kahn-Fogel forcefully lobbied Schultz's current and former bosses to make sure that arrangement would continue. Schultz draws an annual salary of $155,408, according to the most recent compensation figures available.
Do Kahn-Fogel's advances constitute sexual harassment or intimidation? Although the relationship between them appears to have been largely consensual, and Kahn-Fogel is not officially employed by the university, on Monday the UVM board of trustees announced that it had initiated a review "to determine whether the behavior and actions that have come to light were appropriate under our policies and standards of conduct." Noting that "President Fogel fully supports this review," the trustees also announced that Kahn-Fogel has "been removed from her volunteer role" planning university and development events, "including interactions with associated staff."
The review team will include UVM staff, as well as outside consultants, with oversight by UVM's chief compliance officer, Anna Drummond.
UVM bans sexual harassment in the workplace, but the policy focuses primarily on unwanted advances and is usually triggered if an employee complains about a coworker's or supervisor's behavior. UVM also has policies that deal with the topic of amorous relationships between staff and students.
The power dynamic evidenced in Kahn-Fogel and Schultz's relationship is apparently not one that human resources anticipated: While he admitted under oath to having a "relationship" with Kahn-Fogel, Schultz clarified that it was not sexual. Since his wife found Kahn-Fogel's letters, he has come out as a gay man.
UVM trustees learned of the relationship as a result of Seven Days' public records requests, the first of which was filed on April 21. "When it comes to personal relationships, we all expect a certain level of privacy. However, from a fiduciary perspective, the Board of Trustees takes its responsibilities and obligations very seriously, and while we respect privacy concerns, we must and will do what's right for UVM," board chair Robert Cioffi wrote in a statement to Seven Days.
As a proxy for her husband, Kahn-Fogel wielded presidential power over Schultz and his career at UVM. He made a case for that interpretation in his own doctoral dissertation, published in May 2009, titled "Elucidating the Role of the University CEO's Spouse in Development, Alumni Relations, and Fund Raising." In the abstract to his final thesis, Schultz observes, "While the president works very closely with the development office in garnering private support, there is often another player significant to the success of a university's development efforts. Hired along with the CEO, the individual serves a major role, but has no job description and often works without contract or remuneration. This is the spouse of the CEO."
During the divorce trial, Manning said Schultz told her the affair went on for five years and that President Fogel was not aware of it. He is now. "These allegations are profoundly disturbing," Fogel wrote in an email to Seven Days, "and Rachel and I are now dealing with their impact on our marriage."
Fogel also revealed that Kahn-Fogel "has long been in treatment for serious mental health issues with which she has struggled throughout her life." He asked the couple be granted privacy "as we take the time to work through an ongoing course of treatment." UVM spokesman Enrique Corredera said Kahn-Fogel's issues had no bearing on her husband's recent decision to step down as president of UVM.
What brought Schultz and Kahn-Fogel together? Schultz said he helped the Fogels get through a problem early on in their tenure at UVM.
"We worked together and a few years ago had sort of a crisis or something, where I was very helpful to her, and she was appreciative of that, and there's very few people that, frankly, she has that confidence or level of trust in, and then she wanted to see me and just develop a friendship, which is what I thought was going on," Schultz explained during his divorce hearing. "Later on she started to express her love for me, and I was very clear... no sexual, no anything... was going to happen here. She wanted to remain in this sort of relationship and she wanted to communicate to me and wanted to write to me."
It's unclear exactly when Schultz set up a post office box to receive Kahn-Fogel's personal letters — correspondence separate from the lengthy emails she sent at all hours of the day and night. Also worth noting is that Schultz's emails from numerous exchanges with Kahn-Fogel were not retained. The correspondence came from his UVM account; Kahn-Fogel was using Yahoo.
Neither Schultz nor Kahn-Fogel provided further details about the "problem" he helped the Fogels get through, but according to emails between them, there was an apparent falling out between the presidential couple and Ian deGroot, then UVM's vice president for development and alumni relations. Schultz was caught in the middle and had concerns about his job security.
"I don't think you need to worry about looking bad in Dan's eyes," Kahn-Fogel assured Schultz in a lengthy October 2004 email obtained by Seven Days. "Things will get straightened out, and you will be vindicated. I know you are not doing all this for your own ego, but to make things right for us and UVM. But of course you are concerned about how things will go and how you will come out in all of this. I can reassure you that things are all right with Dan; and, as I said, as things develop, you will be proved right."
A month later, in November 2004, they went out to dinner alone. The next day, Kahn-Fogel wrote Schultz a four-page email recounting the events of the evening in detail — from the moment he picked her up to the car ride home.
"When you arrived here, we hugged and kissed and saw the lake. And when you brought me back, we hugged and kissed and smelled and saw the lake. I felt as if the evening were surrounded by lake and kisses. It could not be topped. From lake viewing to lake viewing, from kiss to kiss ... I will never, never forget last night and the happiness I felt with you," she wrote.
Over the next two years, the pair continued to exchange emails and to arrange to attend meetings and special UVM events as a team. They also considered the possibility of going to Chicago together, for a meeting of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities.
"The absolute most wonderful part of your e-mail was saying that if the meetings were in a fun city, you and I might be able to explore the city together," wrote Kahn-Fogel. "I can't imagine anything more fun. The problem is, would the world ever let us do such a thing?"
In a February 2006, it seems Schultz tried to end his relationship with Kahn-Fogel. She referenced an email in which he questioned whether he could continue to see her. She implored him to reconsider or to at least make the break temporary.
"I am very sad … I had great hopes that you and I could keep seeing each other. Now that I have just read your morning e-mail, of course I understand that you have been suffering about your family and don't want to see me," Kahn-Fogel wrote. "But I wonder if you mean it that it might be temporary. I dread that it is just a time for you to detach from me forever and that you will never see me alone again and will stop loving me. It is torture not knowing."
In the same email, Kahn-Fogel forbade Schultz from working events she attended: "This is not punishment but just an impossible situation for me. I don't want to run into you until at least you have decided whether to be with me again.
"One other question: do you want me to stop writing to you? I don't know how I am supposed to behave, still loving you but not knowing what I am allowed to write, or how or when," she added. "No more real letters? No more e-mails? And if so, not writing only temporarily or forever? Do you want to know what I am thinking and how will I know what you are thinking? Please let me know. I am heartbroken. Love, Rachel."
Schultz told Seven Days via email that he did not feel pressured to continue the relationship with Kahn-Fogel, evidence of which exists in both email and letter form through 2010. "Mrs. Kahn-Fogel and I are friends. We were friends during work and apart from our work. Our friendship tended to facilitate our work," Schultz wrote.
After his separation from Manning, Kahn-Fogel reached out to him repeatedly, albeit with shorter messages. On March 28, 2010, just 20 days after Schultz had moved out of his house, Kahn-Fogel sent a one-word note: "LOVE."
In July 2010, she emailed Schultz several one-line emails during an apparent out-of-state trip. One read, "LOVE IN ITHACA." In August, Kahn-Fogel continued her love-tinged emails, including this one: "LOVE on my birthday. I just had my most perfect long swim of the summer, alone, in green, smooth lake under bright sunshine, and I thought of you the whole way."
The thought of Schultz "leaving" Kahn-Fogel, and UVM, was something the president's wife worried about. In 2004, Schultz told her that Rutgers University had shown an interest in him.
"I am sure you will be wanted in many universities," she wrote. "And I am so very glad you want to stay at UVM for now. But I am sure you will get other offers; and it would be devastating for me if you moved."
In December 2010, Kahn-Fogel wrote twice to incoming vice president for development and alumni relations Rich Bundy, asking him to keep Schultz assigned to her. Kahn-Fogel also has an ad hoc personal assistant, Leslie Logan, who earns slightly more than $66,000 a year in that role.
Kahn-Fogel told Bundy that Schultz "rescued Dan and me during a prolonged problem that could have destroyed the presidency" involving another leading administrator whom Kahn-Fogel did not name but identified as a vice president for development.
She also said that Logan has been "fantastic at helping me to create the beauty of the events I'm striving for, too, down to the tiniest details."
Kahn-Fogel added, "It's no wonder that these two smart, fine, and professional UVM staff have become my truest personal friends as well, for they are people I trust with my life in a sea of sometime treachery."
In a March 2011 email, Kahn-Fogel again asked Bundy to assign Schultz to her events, in what appears to be an attempted end run around her husband.
"Even if Dan is thinking of other things and doesn't remember our years-long, informal agreement with the [Department of Alumni Relations], Mike is one of the few who has worked well at our level," she implored. "So in my attempts to work with DAR now, I would like to ask if you would be willing to assign Mike to events I'm involved with, when possible. OF COURSE he doesn't know that I'm making this request, (that has gone on for years). And I'm not asking because he's a friend of mine, though he is.
"I understand that I have no legal rights to request staffing," Kahn-Fogel continued, "but I thought you might be understanding in my current situation of trying to come back to work that it would be helpful to me to have, when possible, a member of your team who has always worked well and treated me with respect, hard work and discretion at events to make things really good and right."'
Bundy's response was cool and cautious.
"Thanks for your feedback on Mike and his work with you in the past; I do recall you mentioning your fondness for him and the confidence you have when he is staffing events," he wrote. "I'll need to think carefully about how I might accommodate your request."
University officials tell Seven Days that Bundy did not honor Kahn-Fogel's request and has since created new staffing schedules and assignments.
"He believes strongly that no one development and alumni relations staff member should be assigned exclusively to staff any function, but rather that a number of staff members should participate in that role from time to time as appropriate, depending on individual circumstances," said UVM spokesman Corredera. That includes Schultz and Logan. In the next few months, most of the employees from DAR will migrate over to the University Foundation, a private, nonprofit fundraising arm of UVM.
It wasn't the first time Kahn-Fogel tried to persuade one of Schultz's bosses to keep him close. Bundy's predecessor received a similar email last fall.
In October 2010, Kahn-Fogel made a plea to then interim vice president for DAR Kathleen Kelleher, who was considering some staffing changes: "You told me at the art opening of the Fleming last week not to trust Michael Schultz but I TRUST HIM WITH MY LIFE, AND HE KNOWS THIS. Trying to keep us apart is not the solution to the messes at UVM."
During the divorce court hearing, one of the lawyers asked Schultz, "Did you have concerns about your job because of this?"
After a long pause he replied, "No. I mean, I guess in some ways the way it all got started is that part of my job is to work with university leadership, and this incident, to start, was sort of helping out the president's spouse. We had developed this friendship and that, in some ways, it probably helped with the job. It didn't cause any promotions, but didn't change things either way. It didn't."

Ashley Servant Administered A Baby Smack Down - Charged With Pummeling Baby Who Grabbed At Her Facial Piercings
Ashley Servant Facebook
Waltham, Mass. (The Weekly Vice) - Ashley Servant, a 22-year-old Massachusetts woman was arrested Tuesday after witnesses say she delivered a baby smack-down during a visit to a doctor's office.
According to Waltham Police, Servant was at a doctor's office with a friend when she repeatedly slapped a baby so hard a witness in the waiting room began crying. The doctor was so offended, he kicked Servant out of his office.
Officers that were dispatched to the doctor's office found Servant out in the parking lot after she was expelled from the building.
Investigators say she told them she pushed the baby's hands away after the child grabbed at her facial piercings.
Witnesses inside the waiting room, however, described a completely different scene. They told officers they heard several hard slaps and saw Servant shake the child as the baby cried hysterically.
One woman told officers she "was so upset at the time she began to cry and couldn't believe what was happening," according to the arrest report.
The doctor who was treating Servant's friend stated he was examining the patient with Servant and the child behind him when he "heard two loud slaps".
The doctor turned around and demanded Servant leave the examining room.
Servant, who has three children and is pregnant with a fourth, has had two children removed from her care in the past, according to court records.
Servant was booked into jail on charges of assault and battery and reckless endangerment of a child. Her pretrial hearing has been set for Oct. 8.

Wow... I'm sure glad I made the "grown-up" decision to rid myself of my eyebrow rings before giving birth to my first child. Otherwise, I might have been expelled from a doctor's office after bitch-slapping my kid, too. JESUS. What's wrong with people?

Yes indeed Anon. I've noticed both Indiana and Massachusetts have been giving Florida a strong run for it's money lately in the nutty crime catagory..
- August 31, 2009 at 9:15 AM
Ida - I've got one of those piercing tools. I've also got a 12 gauge piercing tool, and a .223/5.56mm piercing tool. How I wish I could be hired by the government to pierce those in the US who so badly need it.
Ok. I totally understand that the courts want to keep families together whenever possible. I do.
But given the fact that she previously her her kids taken away, and given the fact that she now has abused them AGAIN (this time in front of some people who deserve a kudos, although I would have hit her)I sincerely hope the courts see the light of day and take away all of her kids, including the one she is preggers with. - August 31, 2009 at 4:16 PM

Keep your legs shut, learn about birth control and stop having babies with criminals. You are pathetic, a child abuser and your poor daughter doesn't deserve a parent like you. You are a joke girl and your friend is too!

Wow thought I had read bull shit before but def see now that people can obv put out more. Who ever made the Tarr comment can keep posting insulting things about people they do not know because I am happy with who I am and how I live my life. I am not friends with Ash anymore but that doesn't mean I will bash her on a computer. People who sit here and write things about other's obv do not have a life of their own. Grow up and do something with yourselfs.

Citizens Against Government Waste President Tom Schatz on the government's wasteful spending.

-- -- Right for more on -- scandal I'm joined by Tom Schatz the president of citizens against Yemen -- -- great to have you back good to see you.
Still -- you know look I wanna show some numbers here about the spending on this event which grew every single year.
And and we're what we're look at here it's not total spending.
It's just -- the margin spending.
Margin on that.
Additional -- strip frivolity 2004 spending was a little over 101000.
By 2010 it was a 188000.
What's going on here.
If no one is being held accountable than the culture is to just keep spending that's the same problem we have in congress.
There is no accountability for the waste.
The budget grows every year.
When they talk about cutting the budget it really means slowing down the growth in the massive spending here in Washington.
So if you were oversight activities meaning members of congress are then not paying attention how the money's being spent in the agencies nobody gets fired -- there's -- scandal.
-- there -- obviously wonderful people working in federal government on occasion it gets out of control as we've seen with this conference for GSA.
We'll talk you know I've spent some time in Washington I've covered some of these agencies and what you find out when yeah when you roll the bed sheet back.
If -- a lot of these agencies are run by the same people for decades and decades and decades so.
A new president comes and he comes with the top layer of management but the real people running -- been there for ever they have practices that they've.
Put in place and capped for a long time and you find a lot of it is really astonishingly old fashioned or or just not.
You know would certainly doesn't save money is it time that we dug down and really found out what the spending -- -- these organization.
-- the Government Accountability Office has found hundreds and hundreds of duplicative programs overlapping programs.
And -- the congress has been aware of those -- many years as well for example we have 209 programs.
For science technology engineering and math and yet we're in the middle of the pack worldwide.
The size of meth education.
The answer on Capitol Hill is off and let's go spend more -- and that's certainly true of this administration.
And it's not as exciting to say we're gonna consolidate those programs and save the taxpayers money.
But it takes piano has like this to help people to pay attention -- some of these headlines coming out of this particular example are so egregious.
And so obviously fraught there was no bidding for some of these contracts.
Some of the things purchased just seem outlandish -- -- of -- points you kidding me.
At what point do you sit back and say this just isn't mismanagement.
This is criminal.
That's a question for the Department of Justice or other investigators but this again is not the first time there was a lavish Social Security Administration conference down Arizona.
That was uncovered by a local reporter it happens in agencies -- lesser level.
The GSA for example in terms of the employee gifts went far above the limit those are the kinds of things that don't happen in the private sector speaking of profit sector practices.
But this individual Jeff Neely said well my goal is to spend as much money as possible because I'm more interested in the entertainment then.
I'm doing something now I'll save money having -- where they aired it.
Get things -- -- and have a good time performance is not an issue and I think that's the problem and the fact that he.
It will take so long to get him fired over this is another issue that needs to be addressed in terms of reform of the entire system how do you stop this.
I think congress has to stop that if they said to the agencies we are going to cut your travel budget and Europe conference budget by 50% of whatever the number is.
It would force them to do what other companies have done during these tough economic times.
Hold -- teleconference is we have the technology these days to do that free conference calling you can go online and get that.
So there it is simply better use of existing technology.
As as you mentioned people get stuck in these old ways and they hold these lavish events in person it's something that can be done easily save tens of millions of dollars.
REI I've got to tell our viewers hear your pig book comes out tomorrow tell us about that.
And if there's any little its negativity tell you give us that would be great.
-- I've been cornered all day asking those questions so a lot of people have to tune in tomorrow my Colorado Leslie Paige will be on Stuart -- show in the morning so.
In fact that will be one of the first times will be discussed at all right in the middle of the press conference so it at least Fox Business is getting a good lead on the whole thing.
Well -- I'm glad it's Stuart Varney your pig book -- obviously and you didn't say it but I well.
It tracks and brings together all the numbers on government wasteful spending and earmarks -- thanks for coming on the show tonight appreciate it.
Thank you -- For.

Product Information
The Aimshot Laser Bore Sight Module inserts into your gun's chamber and emits a laser through the barrel so that you can adjust the sights or scope to be on paper at 25 yards. This saves both time and ammunition when sighting in. This laser diode will work alone for the specified caliber, or with other available arbors (sold separately) to adapt the diode for use with other rifle calibers. External battery box models provide shooters with the same reliability and performance, but with the added benefit of extreme battery life. They are powered by 2 AAA batteries (included) for up to 28 continuous hours, 22 hours for the 20x Model that features a brighter laser than the other models. The magnetic battery box attaches to any metal surface on the firearm and doubles as a storage compartment for the bore sight when not in use. Regular Boresights include 3 LR41 button-type battery cells and a foam lined storage case. The 50 Caliber Diode Module features a bright Green laser and includes a CR123 "button-type" battery.
Material: Brass
Battery Type and Number (included):Regular: 3 LR41 batteries
External Battery: 2 AAA batteries
50 Caliber: 1 CR123 battery
Technical Information:
Maximum sighting range of 100 yards
5-year limited warranty
Arbors for larger calibers sold separately

Costume and Textiles Woman's Round Gown (Robe à l'anglaise) Made in West Chester, Pennsylvania, United States, North and Central Americac. 1775-80s Artist/maker unknown, American Striped cotton plain weave Currently not on view 1959-113-1 Gift of Dorothea Wood, 1959 |
LabelThis gown is a rare surviving example of the type worn by servants and the lower classes, or by middle class women for informal wear. The plain design and the use of cotton fabric are well suited to an informal dress, but also reflect the growing preference for simplicity during the 1770s and 1780s. At this time, dresses with closed skirts became popular; called "round gowns," they were put on over the head. The center front closure of the bodice was also newly fashionable; in this example, however, the triangular shape of a stomacher is maintained through unusual robings attached only at the shoulders. Both these and the fronts would have been pinned in place.Social Tags [?]18th century gowns [x] 18th century women's clothing [x] 18th cenury [x] fashion [x] women's clothing [x] [Add Your Own Tags] |

[font=tahoma]I was wondering why D&DH forum did not allow it's members to sell, trade, or swap items on their forum. I think it would be a great way to get some good deals on used gear and get rid of some of those things that we don't use anymore. (One man's trash is another man's treasure...) [:D][/font]
[font=tahoma]D&DH could make a disclaimer that they are not responsible or liable for anything regarding the sale. (i.e. item condition, money, etc...) They could model it after QDMA's "Trading Post" section of their forum.[/font]
[font=tahoma]What do you guys think???[/font]

Nice hotel, clean rooms, great customer service and wonderful breakfast. We enjoyed our stay.

Overall excellent experience. Front desk staff was outstanding, friendly, and helpful. Breakfast spread was good. Room was well furnished.

"Outstanding Place to Stay"
This Hampton Inn was in a great area with several restaurants close by (I recommend eating at Lupe's), shopping and movie theaters. It was easy to get to it via Loop 1 which by-passed all the busy traffic. The hotel was in a quiet area with no hwy traffic to listen to. The hotel was clean and the front desk was very friendly & helpful.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

"Beds and Bugs"
We had booked two rooms well over two months ago, both King. When we arrived at the hotel only one room was King and the other was double. They made no apologizes and tried to say that is what we requested even after we showed them our confirmation information listing King rooms. To top it off....there was a roach in one of the roomsTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"Very nice!"
This was a very nice hotel and would stay again if in the area. It is close to shopping and food. The staff was exceptional and very accomodating!

"Pets are allowed but can be unsupervised"
We were given the room closest to the front desk which means EVERYONE walks noisily past. We asked for a room change before we even went in our room and were told we could not change. I know for a fact the hotel was not full so there was no reason to deny our request. Pets are allowed at this hotel but every other hotel I have stayed at requires pets […] to be accompanied at all times. This hotel does not. A large dog was barking until 2am. The second time we called the front desk to ask that something be done, the front desk clerk said they wouldn't do anything and hung up on my husband.

The hotel is pretty clean and the breakfast was great. However, the room is far too small for a group of 4 and over. For the price, I was expecting a bigger room. If you've never been in Austin, I should tell you the hotel is around 20 minutes away from the city center, so it is a far drive. Pool and staff were great and friendly.

Overall, the hotel was very nice. The room was organized and clean, had a nice TV, refrigerator, and controllable heat and air conditioning.

Great location; the price was right; friendly and helpful reception at front desk.

Cleaniness of the room/hotal was great! Service and hotel amenities were also great! Very good breakfast! Super comfortable beds and pillows! The hotel was right across the highway from our training center. Our first night the A/C would not stay at the set temperature. However, the second night it worked fine. We also would have liked a refrigerator […] in the room. Nonetheless, we would stay at this hotel again. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"Very good hotel in an excellent location"
The hotel offers an excellent location, a very friendly and helpful staff, well kept and comfortable rooms, and is pet friendly (no additional fees). On the downside, the wifi was substandard and weekday rates are a little pricey for the brand.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"Great hotel for peace and quiet."
I thought it was an overall great hotel. My bed was a little squeaky, but that wasn't enough to make me rate the hotel poorly. I brought my dog with me and there was plenty of space for him to do "his business" worry free. I also thought that the hot breakfast was awesome, bacon one morning, sausage the next, waffles, fruit cereal...it was downright […] a wonderful experience. The hotel itself was very quiet, yet it was close to everything. It was up the street from a TON OF restaurants, and the movies as well. Would definitely do again!

"Best part of Austin!"
We love the Hampton Arboretum! It is near restaurants, highways, shopping and family. The decor is lovely, the rooms comfortable and attractive and the breakfast first rate. Coffee and tea in the lobby 24 hours a day, internet in the lobby and the rooms, fitness center and small but nice pool. The staff take close interest in individual guests and remembered […] our names from before. I don't think we'd stay anywhere else in Austin! Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

These bars have it going on, right?
And more than that, they taste ah-mazing.
I first tried a Pure Bar when I received one in my swag bag at BlogHer Food in Seattle. I was immediately intrigued by the clean list of ingredients and stellar nutrition info. The flavor was Banana Coconut, which of course sounded delish enough – but with all of the healthiness going on in there, could it actually taste good?
This was thrilling news for me, because on extra-busy days (is there such thing as a day that's not extra-busy? I didn't think so) bars like this are a life-saver. I'm generally super-picky about 'em, because I don't want a lot of preservatives but I also want a good mix of protein, fiber, fat, and calories. Tasting good is an obvious bonus, so Pure Bars are a triple-win!
When I reached out to the company to get my hands on more, they happily obliged – and what's even better is that they're sharing the love with you, too!

Yes, stunning is the word! These are your best action poses yet. I am looking forward to getting some of them.
What's the authority for the battleaxe? I am aware of the Atholl and Tullibardine Chronicles that refer to "aixes" but also describe them as "called of some Lochaber aixes" and the well-known 1638 Perthshire survey refers to a "pole-axe" - presumably also a Lochaber axe.
The same survey has only 124 out of 451 with bucklers, so taking up Glowr's point, please dont overdo the shields.

The top Republican leaders in the U.S. House issued a statement Saturday saying they are glad the president will seek congressional authorization for any military action against Syria.
In the statement, House Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy and Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers said they expect the House to consider the measure the week of Sept. 9, the first week Congress will be back in session after a summer break.
President Barack Obama announced Saturday he has decided the U.S. should take military action against Syria, but he will seek authorization for the use of force from Congress.
Obama said the military intervention would not involve "boots on the ground" and would be limited in duration and scope.
"Some things are more important than partisan differences or the politics of the moment," he said. "Today I'm asking Congress to send a message to the world that we are united as one nation."
A series of cruise missile strikes from five Navy vessels in the Mediterranean was considered the most likely tactic for the U.S.
If a strike were to be ordered, that directive would go from the White House to Hagel and Dempsey. Dempsey would then send it to U.S. Central Command. From there, the order would go out to the U.S. ships that would execute the strike.
It would be in response to an alleged chemical weapons attack on Aug. 21 in suburban Damascus that Kerry described as an "indiscriminate, inconceivable horror." The Syrian government denied it used chemical weapons in that case and blamed the rebel forces of perpetrating the attack seen in graphic videos posted online.

about the exhibition
International Artist-In-Residence
New Works 01.2
Lordy Rodriguez
Houston, TX
July 16–September 09, 2001
about the artistDrawing primarily in pen and ink, Lordy Rodriguez reconfigures existing maps creating imaginary compositions that are at once distinctly familiar and candidly absurd. Misplaced cities and fictional states appear alongside recognizable landmarks and iconic sites. While maps often assume an unquestionable authority of accuracy and fact (until they are proven outdated), Rodriguez dismantles conventional notions of locale and geography through intuitive associations and personal narratives.
Lordy Rodriguez was chosen for his ArtPace residency by Lisa Corrin, Chief Curator at the Serpentine Gallery, London, England. She has organized a number of significant shows for the Serpentine including solo exhibitions by Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Chris Ofili, Jane and Louise Wilson, Bridget Riley, and an upcoming show of Rachael Whiteread. Corrin was recently appointed Deputy Director for Art/Jon and Mary Shirley Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Seattle Art Museum, WA.
about the project
For his project at ArtPace, Lordy Rodriguez continues his exploration of map-making as a personal interpretation. Incorporating video and sculptural elements for the first time, Rodriguez has created new work based on the geography of Texas and San Antonio's central location within the Lone Star State.
Rodriguez's installation is comprised of four hand-drawn maps placed atop irregularly shaped platforms and four video monitors. Suggesting an intersection of roads or a dioramic relief map, the installation forms an ordinal axis. The drawings and the videos refer to four road trips that the artist took during his residency. Traveling north, south, east, and west from San Antonio, Rodriguez documented the moving asphalt as seen from beneath the car. The resulting images are barely recognizable as a road, appearing as a fast-paced blur of grey and black. To indicate the artist's exact location in relation to the video, a small light marks a specific point on each map. However, like his previous work, Rodriguez provides only cursory clues to any actual place. The maps, reconfigured as imaginary geographies, collapse local and foreign, real and invented locations. These cartographies are no more precise than the moving images of unidentifiable highway.
Introducing an element of time into this new work, Rodriguez complicates the viewer's attempts to reconcile travel, origin, and destination. The slow movement of the "you are here" light can only be witnessed through patience or repeat visits, and the rapidly moving abstract landscapes belie a clear narrative. The question, "where are you?" is constantly at play.
Rodriguez has consistently used strategies of misrecognition and misdirection to challenge our assumptions of the meaning of place. Viewed within the context of American car culture, made quite literal in this new work, Rodriguez reflects on the links between memory, perception, and cartography. Commenting on the nature of his work, Rodriguez has said, "The question of reality and the different interpretations of what is 'real' are contained in the map."

Thank you, Mr. Bernstein
The scene, a darkened classroom at the Ridgefield, Conn. Junior High School. Screen down, projector whirring, and the world's greatest conductor (really the only one I knew except for Miss Daley and Mr. Hanson), Leonard Bernstein, talking to sixth-grader me. (Lesson learned: Don't speak to an audience. Speak to one person.) And addressing me with respect, totally without condescension. His subject? A great Russian composer named Shostakovich, described as somewhat shy, but also as a genius who had been through a lot of bad things, and looked it in the unforgettable image shown of him about 4:00 in. That's what a composer looks like? Huh. Mr. Bernstein told us about Nazi bombings and anti-Semitism, as if we were mature enough to deal with them. (Lesson learned: Don't hide the darker side of the music you present, but don't dwell on it either, and let the listener find out more if interested.) He also used, and explained, terms like scherzo, sequence and theme, as he broke down the beginning of the Russian composer's Ninth Symphony. (Lesson learned: Don't assume the listener knows what musical terms mean, so define them once in a while.) It's in the key of E-flat major, as he told us, though the symphony suprises us by going suddenly into B-flat major. OK, I had played those notes on my tuba, and knew that a key had something to do with the note a piece started and ended with, but didn't know that you could go from one key to another, so that was interesting.
And on Mr. Bernstein went, going through section by section, except, as I learned, they're called movements, focusing on the solo violin, the piccolo, the brass (yay!), and making sense of the whole symphony, taking it apart and putting it back together like building a puzzle or doing baseball play-by-play. So that's what a symphony is, and what a composer does? Huh again. I had heard of symphonies and composers, but this was new. And for one kid, who already was interested in music but didn't really know what it was or what it could mean, it wasn't just a symphony, it was an epiphany. Something started that day at RJHS, a seed was planted. It took a while to germinate, but tended and nourished by mentors and friends, and fed by insatiable listening, it grew into a passion — and a darned good livelihood. So, two days before your 95th birthday (why did you have to die, anyway?), and as my radio career winds down, let me say thank you, Mr. Bernstein, for everything.
Another prized artifact of my youth as a music lover, Bernstein's famed 1959 recording with the New York Philharmonic of Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony (original cover above) comes up at 1:00 Friday afternoon on NEPR. Done in Boston shortly after a tour of the Soviet bloc, it's both an historical milestone and a still-vital work of phonographic art. And here's part one of the 1966 Young People's Concert about Shostakovich.

12 Books to Creep Yourself Out With
A non-expert's suggestions for books that are fun to read/reread whenever you want the chills.
✝✝ 1 ✝✝
Steven Millhauser, We Others: New & Selected Stories
This is one of my favorite books, as lucid and eerie as a diorama; as Jonathan Lethem says, Millhauser's style is "coolly feverish, drawing equally on Nabokovian rapture, Borgesian enigma and the plain-spoken white-picket-fence wistfulness of Sherwood Anderson." We Others covers a lot of territory—futurist nightmare, teenage romance with a Bataille-esque hint of sexual horror, Victorian inventors, Escherian funhouses, small-town disappearances and mysteries—but throughout, it's consistently enchanted, and remarkably kind. Here's a [...]

The sanctions sought against Jon Corzine, the former head of the bankrupt trading firm MF Global, by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in a lawsuit filed in U.S. Southern District Court in New York on June 27 will likely end Corzine's career as a Wall Street manipulator and send him into ignominious oblivion.
Key ObamaCare Mandate Delayed; Critics Escalate Attacks
Tuesday's announcement by the Treasury Department delaying implementation of part of ObamaCare may turn out to be a brilliant political maneuver: defanging latent Republican resistance until after the 2014 elections.
Supreme Court Expected to Allow Severe Rules on Coal-fired Plants
If the Supreme Court reverses a lower court's ruling against the EPA, the costs of going green will become obvious to every living soul who turns on a light.
