Seaside Screencasts
The first presents Seaside as a Web app IDE, one of the very cool things about it which sometimes gets overlooked in the discussion about it -- and I sometimes suspect the number of people talking about Seaside is larger than the number of people using it -- and the second addresses that whole Rails vs. Seaside thing in much greater detail. (I promise it isn't another language war.)
First screencast: 4 minutes:
Seaside is a framework and an IDE
Second screencast: 12 minutes:
Seaside and Rails
Update: turns out I'm wrong -- you can do REST in Seaside.
Update 2: I moved the screencasts to S3.

Nice screencasts man. Also, the blog is much more readable with the new color scheme, thanks for losing the black, it always hurt my eyes.ReplyDelete
I dug the screencasts.ReplyDelete
I've been tinkering w/ Seaside for a while now, and can't wait to learn more about it.
Thanks for getting the word out and the good analysis.

I really enjoyed both screencasts, but there's something that troubles me - I think that Seaside uses GOTOs as well.ReplyDelete
Now, you'll have to forgive me because I haven't actually used Seaside any more extensively than playing with the tutorial VM and getting confused at the distinct workflow differences...but this was my experience.
In Seaside you use HREFs just as is done in Rails. In Rails, a URL is typically stateless and the state of your current users' interaction is determined within the application. Once you execute a GOTO, the path through your application is built based on the session of the user (or disregarding sessions all together). Alternatively in Seaside, a GOTO will hit the continuations implementation first (hence, no session discovery is required), and from there the path is built (or resumed).
Is there a difference? What exactly are you complaining about? I'm not having a go, but you haven't really explained *why* GOTOs are considered harmful in the context of HREFs. Could you explain that to me because I don't think I quite get it yet.
Apologies, I'm in the process of relocation, this is going to be short. You might be totally right -- Seaside uses "anchor" to generate hrefs manually in a way that isn't so different from the link_to() or url_for() in Rails. To some extent both systems automate link generation but not fully in either case.ReplyDelete
The original "goto considered harmful":
Both Seaside and Rails are eliminating the explicit goto; I don't think either one has entirely succeeded yet. One possibility for the future is that href never disappears, another is that it does. I think it will; I think more and more, coding literal hrefs will probably be seen as a bad thing.
I'm really not trying to say "X is better than Y" here -- I just think that the popularity of Rails kind of overshadows what's really going on, and that overlooking Seaside's advantages is a bad idea.
It's really the clumsiness of goto that you want to avoid. With Seaside you get an awful lot of that elminated, via the continuations approach to session; I think within Rails the same thing could be done, except it'd involve packing a **lot** of information directly into links, or the session on the server side. Rails tracks session automatically too, that much doesn't make Seaside unique. It's the completeness and grace of Seaside's sessions that are unusual.
Sorry, not sure I even answered the question there.
That's funny, I use Live for recording my music as wellReplyDelete
if you want an up-to-date Squeak 3.9 image with Seaside, completion, syntax highlighting... you might want to use
the squeak-web image.
Alan Kay was talking about the RESTish objects-as-resources idea some time ago: witness 42:54 of his 1997 OOPSLA talk.ReplyDelete
In my opinion, GOTO == href is a flawed notion. Goto is about jumping around inside a program on a per-line level. Makes code hard to follow, thus it's considered hard-ful.ReplyDelete
hrefs are about referencing resources. Resources are black boxes, high-level interfaces to whatever you have on the inside. Presented through a uniform interface of four standard verbs.
You can't reference line X of the implementation from a link. You can't see the inside of the implementation from a link.
It's operating at a completely different level from both a practical and conceptual level. So I don't think that equation is meaningful.
Also, the "Rails 0wns seaside / Seaside 0wns Rails" debate presented here appears a tad anemic. I'm not saying it's not the case, I'm just saying that no argument for the case is being presented, thus no enlightening of the viewer is happening.
I think Seaside would probably be pretty damn cool for something like a web-version of that turn-table layout. High interaction, all temporal state, etc. Although I'm not even really sure, because I haven't actually tried to make such a thing in either.
What I'd love to see is someone doing some real comparisons on some real apps. Not to prove one or the other better, just to enlighten people of their differences. I think Seaside is fantastic by shear merit of being different than the request-driven world that Rails inhabits. But that's a very high-level distinction. Let's see something more practical.
Very interesting screencasts. The parts about training wheels and speed limits seemed slightly one-sided however (although by no means I am disagreeing; I officially left PHP for Rails a while back and am currently flirting with Seaside.) I realize you're projecting an objective view of the situation, but just sayin'.ReplyDelete
These comments have been invaluable to me as is this whole site. I thank you for your comment.ReplyDelete

Disaster is likely to wreak havoc in the life of an individual as soon as he becomes victim to erectile dysfunction and the most significant dreadful consequence of erectile dysfunction is that the afflicted man becomes incapable of facilitating erections required for sexual intercourse. The sexual vacuum resulted from erectile dysfunction prompts the sufferer to opt for anti-impotency pills, most especially the viagra medication that was approved by FDA (Food and Drugs Administration) as a clinically effective drug to cure erectile dysfunction in men. Viagra is meant to be administered by patients only after availing of viagra prescription from the doctor. The prescription for Viagra provided by the doctor spells out that the patient suffering from erectile dysfunction seriously need Viagra to treat his disorder and further authorizes the patient to avail of Viagra from the pharmacist.ReplyDelete

Aspiring Rapper Paralyzed After Riding Motorcycle During Range Rover Attack in New York
An aspiring rapper is fighting for his life after a crazy ordeal over the weekend that resulted in him getting run over by a motorist in New York.
According to the New York Daily News, Jeremiah Edwin Mieses, also known as rapper Jay Meezee, is paralyzed and in a medical-induced coma, according to his mother.
The incident began when biker Christopher Cruz was riding with 30 or so members of his bike club and cut driver Alexian Lien off while on the Henry Hudson Parkway in New York.
In the video taken of the incident, a group of motorcyclists stopp and surround Lien's Range Rover then attack the doors and tires.
Lien subsequently runs over Mieses in a state of panic. Mieses was left him with two broken legs and in a coma.
Afterward, a group of motorcyclists, including Cruz, chased Lien's vehicle for four miles and when they caught up with him, brutally pummeled him in front of his wife and 2-year-old child.
Since the incident, two men, Cruz and fellow biker Allen Edwards, were arrested and charged with damaging Lien's Range Rover.
Cruz was charged with menacing, reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of a child, while Edwards was charged with reckless endangerment, criminal mischief and menacing.
Police are still searching for the other motorcyclists who dragged Lien out of the SUV and beat and cut him. Lien received stitches for his wounds and was released from a local hospital.
Lien has avoided criminal charges so far, which has angered the Mieses family, who feel he should face some type of punishment for his actions.
"This man needs to know he hurt someone," said Mieses' wife, Dayanna.
A Facebook page has been created entitled "Justice For Jay Meezee," which shows graphic images of him in a hospital bed.

My ipad is not charging at all, not sure whether there is any fault with charging port.
iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 6.1.3
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

@Tiffany I know how frustrating to have all your hard work eaten up. Hope you at least get the science project.
There always seems to be something wanting to eat our vegetables before we can get them.
Any Gardeners?
@Tiffany I know how frustrating to have all your hard work eaten up. Hope you at least get the science project.
OMG...we get vine borers - they SUCK, too!
This is my starter batch this year...I need to transplant, so don't have any good in-ground pics yet.
And here's from 2011 (as I failed to plant anything last year - shame on me!):
Hope to get close to this again because it thrived, despite the cabbage worms that we hand-plucked from the plants! LOL!
@Tina I love your garden. Hope you don't get too many pests.
We have... zucchini!!!! and.... yellow squash!!!! and.... cucumbers!!!! I have zucchini and cucumbers sliced and in the dehydrator and oven and yellow squash in the freezer and cucumbers in the fridge becoming refrigerator pickles and more on the counter and more growing!!And some in the fridge waiting their turn for the dehydrator.... Anyone coming over gets free zucchini!!
@Cindy, where do you live? Dehydrated zucchini chips ROCK!!!
OK...finished transplanting today...some of the starter plants didn't make it... But here's what did (so far)!
I have three different gardens, only two are active this year. A bird/butterfly garden that is still in progress. I am trying to get it cleaned up this year as I was sick last year and couldn't work it plus we had a drought so I lost a lot of plants. I also have an herb garden near the bird garden (i get some really neat birds! I am currently digitally scrapbooking some of my photos. I will post some pics soon) and I also have a veggie garden which is not in use this year. Just got better as the season was beginning and didn't have the energy or motivation to get to it this year. I so love gardening! My kids love it too.
We have a town house with a very small rear garden...
Have planted it with evergreens and bushes, climbing rose, and a clematis along with a feeder to encourage the birds and wildlife.
We laid down wood bark to keep in some moisture and although we don't have a pond, we have several frogs this year. They seem to like it under the bark and bushes.
This year we planted some fuchsia' s for colour and the Bees and butterflies have been visiting which is Lovely.
Will scrap a page or two in due course as have been photographing the flowers, wildlife etc...
The front is lavender, lawn and a tree - I am drying some of the lavender at the moment to make little lavender pillows
We had a severe thunderstorm 3 nights ago. It included golf ball size hail. I'm mourning the loss of many many pretty flowers and trying to clean up the carnage left behind. Oddly, my tallest plant, a black hollyhock, was virtually unharmed.
@Cindy: Me, me, me! For sure I need some yummi veggies today
One of our (few) flower pots is in bloom, what is a surprise, as we are not really cultivating them since the cats arrived....
Um...no. We have a massive garden, and I'm allowed to pull the weeds out now that I can differentiate between tomato plant vs. not a tomato plant. I look at things and they die. I admire people who enjoy gardening, but there's no sense of longing to emulate y'all.
@Cat - I know how you feel... my first foray into tomatoes was a wee bit of urban gardening in tubs... the stunted result was a little bit disturbing! Mind you... I was a wee bit lax on the water on 40 degree days!
I grew up in big gardens and LOVE it, but as a city dweller now have had to resort to things that grow in pots and have developed a bit of a cacti and succulent fetish as a result! I did have a lovely parsley growing... until I went away for four days and came back to the evidence of a possum having enjoyed it for dinner!
The one thing I can't grow for the life of me is mint. I know, it's meant to grow like a weed but mine just DIES!
Janet, love your yard. All the work we put in really does pay off in the end. However, I live on 20 acres and we are never ever done. Busy taking care of nasty, exotic species like buckthorn that prevents all the desirable trees from growing. Also do tons of canning of tomatoes, peppers, apples, beans, raspberries, etc. well over 120 qts. last year. But this year is different. Much too cold and wet to get plants in on time. In addition, once my 24 tomatoes were in for about 2 weeks, the farmer across from us sprayed his corn for weeds and wiped out our tomatoes! Oh well, I already have my beans done and have frozen 16 quarts of raspberries. Right now I have 4 gallons of chokecherry sipping liqueur brewing. May be a good year after all! Cheers to all...
So Jordan and I have suddenly found ourselves with a garden, and with everything else going on it's a bit overwhelming! Especially since gardening is not something we know about. So far, I've watered it and cut off a few dead things.
Question: When a plant dies, are you supposed to tear it out? Does it depend on the plant (I don't know what these are)? Do you rip it out with roots, or leave the roots in for later?
I was a terrible gardener until we moved to a warmer climate. Now I can't make things stop growing! It's nice though, not to have to try so hard to get something to peek out of the dirt.
...Right now I have 4 gallons of chokecherry sipping liqueur brewing. ...
I've been contemplating picking chokecherries this year (and nanking cherries). There are so many chokecherry trees in the neighbourhood and I know no one picks from them. I love chokecherry jelly. Reminds me of my childhood growing up in the country. We always picked wild fruit - especially chokecherries and saskatoons.
I'm going apple picking today. A guy in the neighbourhood has a 4 beautiful apple trees and they have the most delicious apples I have ever eaten. I don't know what kind of apples they are, but they're about the size of a macintosh, but firm and sweet. They make beautiful apple juice, jelly, and sauce. They're ok for pies, but a tart apple is better. I'm only going to make apple sauce this year since I still have about 30 jars of jelly in my pantry from last year. I can even give it away fast enough - everyone is on a "diet" and doesn't want jam. If I have the energy, I may go cherry picking tomorrow before it gets to late in the season. I can't wait until the rosehips come this year. I want to try making rosehip jelly. I'm kind of become an "urban" forager. When I walk the dog, I walk her down backlanes now so I can see what kind of fruit people have growing. There's a ton of raspberry bushes growing outside the fence on one property that I want to go check to see if they're ready.
I've also been researching which "weeds" are edible that grow in our area. I know dandelion greens are and believe me we get a lot of dandelions in our yard, but I wouldn't eat them because of the dog roaming around the yard. I may take some seed from some next year and grown them in a pot. There are a lot of "salad" weeds, but again, living in the city and all the exhaust from cars and mess from dogs, I would never eat them, but taking the seeds and growing them in pots might be something to try. With my luck, I won't even be able to grow weeds.
@Marissa that is a good question about the plants. I would say if you don't know what they are just leave them and see if they come up next year. Some plants like daffodils and tulips need have the leaves and stems die back because that is what feeds them. If the plants are annuals they need to stay in the ground or they won't grow next year. If it is a vegetable garden then those would need to be replanted every year so you can get rid of them, however most gardeners just turn them under the dirt so they become compost. I hope this helps.
Thanks Sharron! That does help!
Another question for anyone living in the Pacific Northwest. I realize that summer is coming to an end, and soon it will be colder, but I have lots of little pots and planters and I was wondering if anything would live in them through the winter?
I am no gardener, but I would leave the dead plants for now. The Northern Hemisphere is heading into Autumn and Winter and many plants die off in the winter and come into life again in the spring. Then it is fun seeing your garden come to life again.
I used to love to landscape and garden and even preserve the produce (what we could get from our northern climate). Now we live further south where I could grow all the things I wanted to grow then, and between fibro and arthro and the other stuff that creeps up and takes over, I can't get down to garden. Will try to grow a few things in some planters on our deck benches next Spring, hopefully. Meanwhile I'm just glad I can walk at all and still use my computer and Photoshop and even scrapbook sometimes. We belong to a local CSA so I get my fresh veggies that way and enjoy the blooms from the shrubs planted by the former owner of our home. Sometimes I just itch to be able to dig in the dirt again!
I love to garden I have several I do every thing flowers, herbs, veggies, fruit trees, Sun, shade, even bunnies!!!Well those last ones like eating when I give them from the garden. I enjoy all kinds of plants and i love being in the garden.
I just love gardening! But like Peg I have health-issues that limits me in my gardenwork. I want to do more than my body can handle....
This is wonderful, so many gardeners. I love to garden. Tomatoes, strawberries, Pumpkins, eggplant, squash, okra, green beans, potatoes, peas, peppers, broccoli, cucumbers, cabbage, etc. Love flowers too. Our strawberries, tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, potatoes, green beans, and okra did great. I have spend all of august and September canning and freezing. Squash did not do as well this year. I usually have so much I give to the neighbors. Has anyone made mock apple pie with zucchini? My husband loves it.
Hi, Just a newbie to the forum here...and love that so many other people like to talk gardening to. (Even those non-gardeners). I love my garden, am growing whatever I can get my hands on. The normal lettuce, cucumber, celery, carrots, spinach, pumpkin, watermelon, rockmelon, tomato, capsicums and an arrangement of herbs. This year I'm trying potatoes, taro, loofah and spaghetti squash as well as kale and a new different type of spinach - ceyelene spinach. Have a chicken coop and growing blackberries over the top, whatever we don't get and drop they get. I shall take some pictures and show everyone. Got lemon grass growing wild, and have to fence that off from 1 of our dogs as he loves it and will eat it down to the ground.

Christian Seifert (CPRO of The Honeynet Project) has just announced publication of our Know Your Tools series: Qebek - Conceal the Monitoring, authored by Chengyu Song and Jianwei Zhuge from the Chinese Chapter and Brian Hay from the Alaskan Chapter. The paper is based on Chengyu's hard work during the GSoC 2009, Brian Hay and me acted as his mentors for the Qebek GSoC Project. Congrats to Chengyu and Chinese Chapter.
The paper is available from http://honeynet.org/papers/KYT_qebek.
Paper abstract
For the last few years, while low-interaction (LI) honeypot systems like Nepenthes and PHoneyC are getting more and more powerful, the progress of high-interaction (HI) honeypot technology has been somewhat slower. This is especially true for Sebek, the de-facto HI honeypot monitoring tool. In this KYT paper, we introduce Qebek, a QEMU based HI honeypot monitoring tool which aims at improving the invisibility of monitoring the attackers' activities in HI honeypots.

I spent the afternoon of May 10, 1987, with some colored markers and a white bed sheet sprawled across my parents' living room floor. That night, I would attend my very first live wrestling event, a WWF house show at the Nassau Coliseum headlined by Randy "Macho Man" Savage taking on Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat inside a steel cage. But one of the wrestlers I looked forward most to seeing in person was "Adorable" Adrian Adonis.
It wasn't because I was a fan of "The Adorable One." On the contrary, like most young WWF fans at the time, I despised Adonis—one of WWE's top heels. So deep was my hatred for Adonis that I took marker to linen and drew an unflattering caricature of him accompanied with some taunting text. Unfortunately, Adonis no-showed the event, and I had ruined a perfectly good bed sheet for nothing.
Some 26 years later, I don't recall exactly what insults I had written on that sheet, but I can safely assume what they were about. You see, about a year earlier Adonis—once a motorcycle jacket-wearing tough guy—bleached his hair, began wearing makeup, and put bows in his hair.
In case Adonis' transformation was a little too subtle for some fans, he clarified matters while appearing as a guest on the WWF's campy 1980's talk show, Tuesday Night Titans. With WWF owner Vince McMahon sitting behind the host's desks, Adonis stood up from a couch and proclaimed, "Yes, I'm gay." A chorus of boos from the "audience"—comprised of WWF plants—followed.
In the subsequent months, Adonis did everything to get cheap heat out of his new character. He wrestled in a dress, which Hulk Hogan once pulled off to reveal a padded bra. He planted kisses on a life-sized cardboard cut out of Paul Orndorf. He hosted an interview segment named, "The Flower Shop."
It was hardly new territory, as the effeminate heel character had long been a staple of wrestling, dating back to television pioneer Gorgeous George. And it always played out the same way: The flamboyant bad guy would prance around the ring. Fans would chant insults at him that I couldn't print here. And the disgusted, macho good guy would teach him a lesson.
It was a proven formula, and it worked on me all those years ago. To a nine-year-old me, Adrian Adonis was evil because he was gay, and I wanted nothing more than to see someone beat him up.
It's with that backdrop that the news of Darren Young coming out takes special significance. It's about more than being the first openly gay, active WWE wrestler. It's about most people being okay with it.
As has been the case in all professional sports and fields of entertainment, there have undoubtedly been gay WWE performers over the years. A few are common knowledge among longtime wrestling fans, and many more have kept their lifestyles a closely guarded secret.
But what we've never seen in wrestling is the issue—or non-issue—of homosexuality handled with dignity, until now.
"I'm a WWE Superstar and, to be honest with you, I'll tell you right now, I'm gay. And I'm happy, very happy," Young matter-of-factly told a TMZ reporter. "To be honest, I don't think it matters."
Young's right. It doesn't matter. And, that's why it does.
Although some people may dismiss Young's announcement as a "non-story," the truth is it is a big deal—not because he's a gay pro wrestler, but because, ostensibly, he has been his whole career and it's never been an issue. Judging from John Cena's reaction in a separate TMZ interview, Young's homosexuality was well known in WWE. And, yet, there's been no evidence that it's factored into the career of the "Prime Time Player," whose Twitter profile boasts that his "life revolves around three things—money, women, and wrestling."
So far everyone in WWE has handled Young's announcement with class. Some may question why WWE felt the need to issue a statement all on the issue, but the fact is it was likely bombarded with questions from the media on the issue. The statement read that WWE "is proud of Darren Young for being open about his sexuality." Cena, Triple-H, and Stephanie McMahon all offered words of support and encouragement as well.
A cynical person may question the motivations of Young—a lower-card performer now getting more positive mainstream publicity than he could have ever hoped for. And you may even wonder why a TMZ reporter would be interviewing Young, who is hardly a mainstream celebrity, at all—much less on the peculiar topic of gays in wrestling. Did I mention SummerSlam, one of WWE's biggest shows of the year, is this Sunday?
To be sure, there's a bit of hypocrisy surrounding Young's coming out—some of which I'm guilty of committing with this blog. After all, if it's not a big deal, then why am I bothering to write this? Why has it, in just a few hours, become one of the biggest mainstream news stories coming out of WWE in years?
The answer is simple: because Darren Young is a public figure. And that's where some real good can come out of this—just as it does every time any celebrity makes the courageous decision to go public about something that is intrinsically private, and, really, nobody's business. It's because if a pro wrestler, watched on TV by millions of fans each week, says he's happy being gay, it makes it that much easier for some anxious high school student to do the same.
Young appears ready to embrace that opportunity.
"I'm hoping to be able to make a difference," said Young, who is scheduled to take part in an anti-bullying event held by WWE in Los Angeles this weekend. "It's very important to me that people understand that someone's sexual preference shouldn't really matter. It should be about the person."
That's a far cry from the constant jokes made by WWE commentators in the 1980s and 1990s whenever the subject of Pat Patterson or Terry Garvin came up. It's worlds removed from the over-the-top antics that TNA scripted for Orlando Jordan after he acknowledged being bisexual. Even the late Chris Kanyon couldn't come out near the end of his career without deliberately creating confusion over whether it was part of the show.
And it's certainly a long way from "Adorable" Adrian Adonis.

In A Literature of Their Own, Elaine Showalter shows how women's literature has evolved, starting from the Victorian period to modern writing. She breaks down the movement into three stages — the Feminine, a period beginning with the use of the male pseudonym in the 1840s until 1880 with George Eliot's death; the Feminist, from 1880 till the winning of the vote in 1920; and the Female, from 1920 till the present-day, including a "new stage of self-awareness about 1960."
When discussing the characteristics of each of these phases, she looks at how other literary subcultures ("such as black, Jewish... or even American") to see how they developed. A female solidarity always seemed to exist as a result of "a shared and increasingly secretive and ritualized physical experience... the entire female sexual life cycle." Female writers always wrote with this commonality and feminine awareness in mind. Therefore, women's writing and women's experiences "implied unities of culture."
Showalter finds in each subculture, and thus in women's literature, first a long period of imitation of the dominant structures of tradition and an "internalization of its standards of art an its views on social roles." This Feminine phase includes women writers such as the Brontës, Elizabeth Gaskell, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Harriet Martineau, George Eliot, Florence Nightingale, and the later generation of Charlotte Yonge, Dinah Mulock Craik, Margaret Oliphant, and Elizabeth Lynn Linton. These women attempted to integrate themselves into a public sphere, a male tradition, and many of them felt a conflict of "obedience and resistance" which appears in many of their novels. Oddly enough, during the Victorian period, women flooded the novel market and comprised a healthy segment of the reading public — still, women writers were left "metaphorically paralyzed." The language with which they could fully express their experience as women and their sufferings as they still identified themselves within the confines of Victorian bourgeois propriety.
In the second stage, the minority — or rather, the subordinate — lashes out against the traditional standards and values, demanding their rights and sovereignty be recognized. In this Feminist phase, women's literature had varying angles of attack. Some women wrote social commentaries, translating their own sufferings to those of the poor, the laboring class, slaves, and prostitutes, thereby venting their sense of injustice in an acceptable manner. They expanded their sphere of influence by making inroads into social work. In a completely different direction, the 1870s sensation novels of Mary Braddon, Rhoda Broughton, and Florence Marryat, "explored genuinely radical female protest against marriage and women's economic oppression, although still in the framework of feminine conventions that demanded the erring heroine's destruction." Their golden-haired doll-like paradigms of womanhood mock contemporary expectations of Angels in the House by turning out to be mad bigamists and would-be murderesses.
Militant suffragists also wrote prolifically during this protest phase of literature. Women such as Sarah Grand, George Egerton, Mona Caird, Elizabeth Robins, and Olive Schreiner made "fiction the vehicle for a dramatization of wronged womanhood... demand[ing] changes in the social and political systems that would grant women male privileges and require chastity and fidelity from men." On the whole, Showalter finds these women's writings not examples of fine literature. Their projects concerned themselves more with a message than the creation of art, though their rejection of male-imposed definitions and self-imposed oppression opened the doors for the exploration of female identity, feminist theory, and the female aesthetic.
The third period, then, is characterized by a self-discovery and some freedom "from some of the dependency of opposition" as a means for self-definition. Some writers end up turning inward during the subsequent search for identity. In the early half of Female phase of writing, it "carried... the double legacy of feminine self-hatred and feminist withdrawal... [turning] more and more toward a separatist literature of inner space." Dorothy Richardson, Katherine Mansfield, and Virginia Woolf worked towards a female aesthetic, elevating sexuality to a world-polarizing determination. Moreover, the female experience and its creative processes held mystic implications — both transcendental and self-destructive vulnerability. These women "applied the cultural analysis of the feminists [before them] to words, sentences, and structures of language in the novel." However, Showalter criticizes their works for their androgynistic natures. For all its concern with sexual connotations and sexuality, the writing avoids actual contact with the body, disengaging from people into "a room of one's own."
This changed when the female novel entered a new stage in the 1960s. With twentieth-century Freudian and Marxist analysis and two centuries of female tradition, writers such as Iris Murdoch, Muriel Spark, Doris Lessing, Margaret Drabble, A.S. Byatt, and Beryl Bainbridge access women's experiences. Using previously taboo language and situations, "anger and sexuality are accepted... as sources of female creative power." Showalter's analysis shows how the progress of women's writing reached this phase and expresses all the conflicts and struggles still influencing the current of women's literature.

Community Profiles: Scales and Subscales
EDI Community Profiles explore and synthesize EDI scale-level data aggregated for a School District and its associated neighbourhoods. These data are based on children's home postal codes representing children who live in the School District and include children attending public schools and children attending participating Independent and on-reserve schools. This report includes multiple years of EDI data, from Wave 2 (2004-2007) to Wave 6 (2013-2016), and spatially maps EDI data at a neighbourhood-level as well as provincial-level results that are intended to help communities situate themselves in the broader provincial context.
Subscales Community Profiles explore and synthesize EDI subscale-level data aggregated for a district and its associated neighbourhoods. While scale-level data allow us to assess trends and patterns in children's vulnerability rates, subscale data allow us to refine our understanding of these population-level outcomes by providing information on the specific areas of development that are contributing to scale-level vulnerability. Like the Community Profiles, these data are based on children's home postal codes representing children who live in the School District and include children attending public schools and children attending participating Independent and on-reserve schools.
Interactive Map
Interested in exploring spatial trends and patterns for school districts and neighbourhoods? HELP's new interactive mapping tool supports the exploration of EDI data across all five scales and over multiple Waves (combined years of data). Discover EDI data for your community or region by clicking on the map to access neighbourhood-level data for this School District.Interactive Map
Explore Change Over Time
Collecting EDI data over multiple years allows us to explore trends in children's development and to answer the broader question: "Are our Kindergarten-aged children doing better, worse or about the same as in the past?" With each new wave of EDI data, vulnerability rates change across the province. While some neighbourhoods see improvements over time for particular aspects of children's developmental health, others see declines. When looking at all of these changes over time we need to identify the amount of change in vulnerability that is meaningful – that is, worthy of further exploration and discussion.
HELP's interactive Critical Difference Tool allows you to explore the meaningful change over time in a neighbourhood's vulnerability rate on any of the five EDI scales or on Vulnerability On One or More Scales. Use the map to start exploring change over time in your community by following these steps:
- Choose one of the five EDI scales of interest (or One or More Scales) from the list below;
- Choose a base wave (2, 3, 4 or 5) for the first time point;
- Choose a comparison wave (3, 4, 5 or 6) for the second time point;
- Hover over individual neighbourhoods on the map to find additional details, including total number of children included in each Wave, the vulnerability rate and the change over time percentage.
Please note: The Critical Difference Calculator rounds at a certain decimal point. Your reports include the most accurate calculation of your community's critical difference. For more information on how HELP calculates meaningful changes in vulnerability rates, please visit our Critical Difference webpage and calculator.

I'm opposed to the Marriage (Same-Sex) Bill. I have no problems with gay – or, as the PC term is now, LGBT – equality as a general concept, i.e. that LGBT people should be treated equally to any other citizens and should not be discriminated against. However, I do take issue with some of the ways LGBT equality has been implemented in practice, such as the requirement under the Equality Act (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2007 for adoption agencies to take on gay and lesbian couples on an equal basis to heterosexual couples. That has meant that many Christian adoption agencies – which were generally recognised as providing an excellent service – have had to close, as they took the view that it is in the best interests of the child to be adopted by opposite-sex, preferably married, couples. By holding out for this view and not taking on same-sex couples, they would have run the risk of breaking the law.
Gay, or same-sex, marriage had, and arguably still has, the potential to present similar crises of conscience. If marriage is construed, like adoption, as a service that religious organisations such as churches provide to the public, then once same-sex marriage enters the statute books, those churches could be held to be in breach of the law by not offering marriage to gay couples. Section 2 of the present Bill, which passed its reading at the report stage earlier this week, offers churches and other religions protection against that eventuality by requiring religious organisations to opt in to the right to conduct same-sex marriages. In other words, there is no obligation on such organisations to provide same-sex marriage services if they do not agree with them on grounds of conscience.
So, no problem then? Well, the peculiar problem in England is that the Church of England historically has always had the obligation to marry any persons that requested it to do so, so long as the marriage thus solemnised was legal, e.g. not bigamous or prohibited for some other reason. Hence, introducing gay marriage could have put the Church in the position whereby it uniquely, as the established Church, had to offer gay weddings if gay couples asked it to do so. This is why the Bill has resorted to the drastic measure of actually prohibiting the Church of England (and the Anglican Church in Wales) from celebrating same-sex marriages. If it had not done so, there would have been a serious possibility of a legal challenge from gay couples who had been refused marriage by the Church.
As part of this obligation of the Church to marry those who ask it to do so in good faith (if not always in actual Christian faith), there has hitherto been just a single legal definition of marriage in English Law, i.e. no distinction between civil and religious marriage as exists in many countries in the rest of Europe. The new Bill maintains this tradition of recognising only one form of marriage but extends it to gay couples. Thus a somewhat absurd situation has arisen whereby the Church of England is still obliged to marry opposite-sex couples in church, and a single legal form of marriage (straight and gay) that applies to both religious and civil ceremonies is maintained, but the Church is prohibited from providing that form of marriage to gay couples.
This contradiction is absolutely bound to lead to legal challenges. But the fact that the new law will ban the Church from conducting same-sex weddings is intended to deflect those challenges away from the Church (which will have no option but to refuse gay couples) on to the law itself. Hence, the challenges, when they come, will take the form of judicial reviews or appeals to the European Court of Human Rights.
This is a very English muddle; indeed, one might even characterise it as very Anglican. England's Church, and indeed English society, is a broad church, tolerating a wide spectrum of faith, ethics and sexuality. In one sense, the big joke in all this is that gay relationships and couples, involving vicars and bishops in many cases, have been quietly tolerated in the Church of England for decades. The real problem, for the Church, is perhaps that the possibilities of being either obliged to celebrate, or prohibited from celebrating, such relationships forces a resolution of the Church's ambiguities on the morality of homosexuality. It pushes the issue out of the closet and into . . . the church. Will the Church turn down the wish of its gay congregants to marry in their places of worship, or will it utter a collective 'I do'?
Well, the answer may soon be taken out of its hands, if indeed there are successful legal challenges to the ban on Anglican same-sex marriage. Ironically, the Church of England is perhaps more vulnerable in this area than other churches and faiths, which historically have not had the obligation to offer marriage to allcomers, as has the C of E.
The problem, as I have indicated above, is the single legal definition of marriage in England and Wales, which will now encompass same-sex unions. Over and above the fact that this may ultimately bring about the disestablishment of the Church of England – if it refuses to provide same-sex marriages once the ban on its doing so is overturned by the High Court or the ECtHR – this is the reason why I oppose the Bill.
I wouldn't have any objection to gay civil marriage if law and practice made a distinction between civil and religious marriage. Indeed, making a split between civil marriage (open to gay and straight couples) and religious marriage (open by default only to straight couples but, at the discretion of each religious organisation, capable of being extended to gay couples) could have been a way to resolve the parallel muddle that has arisen over civil partnerships: the current civil form of recognition of same-sex unions ('gay marriage' in all but official documentation), which the Bill in its present form is neither abolishing nor extending to heterosexual couples – hence creating another anomaly and inequality. Indeed, even if a church or other religious organisation did not choose to conduct gay religious marriages, it could be open to them to conduct gay civil marriages within their own premises: equivalent to celebrating civil partnerships now, as civil partnerships would be 'upgraded' to 'civil marriages', equivalent to straight civil marriages.
But as the law continues to be based on a single definition of marriage – civil and religious, and now gay and straight – this means that what is at issue is not merely LGBT equality in the matter of civil marriage but English society's collective understanding and formal definition of marriage per se. By legalising gay marriage, the British parliament is declaring that the official meaning and purpose of marriage in England and Wales are no longer as understood by traditional Christianity, which holds that marriage is the life-long union of a man and a woman, and is the foundation of family life and strong communities. (I've written about this extensively in my previous post from the point of view of traditional Christian faith, so won't go back over this ground here.)
This is what is ultimately at stake for England here: our understanding and beliefs about the meaning and value of human sexuality, and the importance of the traditional family based around the rock of an unshakable union between a husband and a wife committed to each other and their children for life.
Let's not be under any illusions here. The most ardent and determined LGBT-equality campaigners won't be content with mere equality under the law: they want society not only to hold and propagate the view that gay sex and marriage are equal to their straight counterparts, but that they are equivalent to them, morally, socially and spiritually. They want to marginalise and stigmatise anyone who stands up for the traditional understanding of marriage, and brand them as bigots and homophobes. Indeed, that's what they're already doing. You wait for the challenges against churches, and church and other religious schools and their teachers, to come in.
Now that it's law, it'll become mandatory PC speak to acknowledge the 'equal value' and importance of gay and straight marriages. And what will inevitably be next is demands for 'reproductive equality': the equal 'right' for gay couples, especially if they're married, to access 'fertility services' enabling them to have children (which, after all, is what marriage is supposed to be all about, they might say). So fertility clinics will not be allowed to give preference to straight couples having difficulty becoming joint parents in the natural way over gay or lesbian couples requiring treatments such as artificial insemination or surrogacy enabling one of them to become a parent, even though neither could become a parent under any circumstances if left to nature alone. Equal adoption and marriage rights: equal fertility rights – watch this space.
Would it matter if the traditional family disappears under the impact of an increasingly secularised society's obsession with enabling every individual – gay or straight – to pursue and fulfil the same goals in the name of equal rights? Well, I think it does matter. Society needs people who are prepared to place their commitments to other people – wives, husbands, children, families, communities – above their dedication to pursuing their personal life goals and sexual, or other, destinies. And, I would say, society needs faith: the belief in, and commitment to, some thing or some being higher than oneself. Is this need met by changing society's understanding of marriage so that it is merely the affirmation of two people's love and passion for each other, and of their pursuit of personal fulfilment, divorced from the broader social and familial context?
Well, I guess we'll muddle through. I hope so anyway. Maybe those who want dogmatically to insist we all acknowledge the equal value of gay sex and unions will not in fact win their ultimate victory, and English society will continue to tolerate diversity, even if hypocritically in some contexts, such as the Church.
The fact that the Marriage (Same-Sex) Bill is such an unholy English muddle gives me a sort of desperate hope.

While it won't be official until after the league year starts at 4 p.m., today's the day the Eagles will release cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The move has been coming for some time, but had to occur after the start of the league year for salary cap purposes. When reports came out last week that it was done, reports which were quickly refuted, it was clear it was happening, though the timing was off.
The inevitability doesn't make it any less alarming, that a player who was so recently at the top of the game is unemployed.
UPDATE 3:46 p.m. ET: The Eagles just put out a statement confirming the move.
"Coach Kelly and I each had a chance to speak with Nnamdi earlier and he took the news with a lot of class," Eagles general manager Howie Roseman said. "We expected nothing less than that from him. He has been a true pro on and off the field for this organization and our community and we wish him all the best as he continues his NFL career. We spoke to his representatives at the Combine about his future status with the team and wanted to take time to analyze and make a decision. In the end, coach and I both felt we needed to move in a different direction at the cornerback position for 2013 and beyond."

Last week, the Buccaneers deftly were able to sidestep the fallout of an ugly loss to the Jets by eventually shining a spotlight on quarterback Josh Freeman.
This week, it could be a little trickier.
While it's clear that players question the commitment and leadership of Freeman, players also question the tactics and methods of coach Greg Schiano. As one league source recently told PFT, multiple veteran players simply don't like Schiano's ways. Recently, FOX Sports reported (via the New York Post) that cornerback Darrelle Revis isn't happy with Schiano's "strict" nature.
It's hardly a new development. We reported last December that one veteran player wanted to know when these coaches would be sent back to college. On Monday, Pewter Report chronicled the issues that have plagued a team that has now gone 1-7 over its last eight games.
Meanwhile, the Cold War between Schiano and Freeman continues. After Sunday's loss, Schiano assumed blame for the loss while take a passive-aggressive jab at the man who seems to be not long for the job of starting quarterback.
"I'm going to have to look at the tape to tell you what's going on, because it isn't just the quarterback. It, squarely, is on me," Schiano said.
He didn't say it's not quarterback. He said it isn't just the quarterback, which means that to a certain extent it is the quarterback.
The reality is that coaches who win can get away with being hard-nosed disciplinarians. Absent pelts on the wall, it won't work. While the Bucs showed some promise last season, it's all moving in the wrong direction — and Schiano could be moving in the direction out of Tampa after this season, unless things turn around quickly.

The Bondi Vet Hilariously Responds To THAT Chris Brown Drama
Just in case you managed to miss it, American rapper Chris Brown has been stealing headlines left, right and centre all day after allegedly pulling a gun on a girl he had brought back to his LA home.
The whole situation continued to spiral as the morning went on; while the girl, beauty queen Baylee Curran, escaped from Brown's house, he then barricaded himself inside, posting a series of bizarre videos to social media while the tense stand-off with police escalated.
But another Chris Brown, one a little closer to home, has apparently been feeling the effects of his namesake's actions all day and couldn't resist taking to Twitter to poke fun at the slightly awkward situation.
"It's days like these where I really resent the choice of name Mr and Mrs Brown made all those years ago," the Bondi Vet wrote in the tongue-in-cheek post.
We'll say.

Dr. Evelyn Lincoln of Brown University will present the address "Reading, Writing and Disegno in the Renaissance Workshop" on Friday, Sept. 20, at 4:30 p.m. at Hope College in Cook Auditorium of the De Pree Art Center.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
The lecture is part of the "Breaking Artistic Barriers" series coordinated by the college's department of art and art history, which during 2013-14 is featuring the theme "Disegno." Rooted in 16th-century Italian Renaissance theory, the term "disegno" (or "design") refers to the creative idea in the mind of the artist—an idea often embodied in the preliminary drawing.
The goal of this year's theme is to explore the principle of "disegno" through a contemporary, 21st-century lens. Lincoln's talk will explore the meaning and importance of disegno in its original context of the Italian Renaissance and discuss how the concepts continue to operate in contemporary art and design.
Lincoln is an associate professor of the history of art and architecture and Italian studies at Brown University in Providence, R.I., and is an internationally renowned scholar on Italian Renaissance prints, printmaking and book illustration. In her book "The Invention of the Italian Renaissance Printmaker" (Yale University Press, 2000), she discusses the history of printing in the formation of artists' careers in late 15th- and early 16th-century Italy, and she identifies the roots of disegno, which was judged to be the intellectual and practical basis of all artistic practice. In 2014, she will publish "Brilliant Discourse: Pictures and Readers in Early Modern Rome" (Yale University Press, 2014).
The De Pree Art Center is located at 160 E. 12th St., on Columbia Avenue at 12th Street.

Dick and Jane Still Filming!
According to someone on the IMDB message board, they're still filming Dick and Jane on Ocean Blvd today and tomorrow.
Holy Cow - what a long production!
Yeah, with as slow as the filming is going I think we'll definitly really have to wait for a December release and it wasnt just a rumor
awsome.... so why are they waiting until december to put it out.... i mean post production on a movie like this couldnt possibly take THAT long.... why not put the movie out during the summer.???
they still need to do reshoots and that could take until summer itself

"I was sitting back in my chair thinking 'this can't be about urine'" - Jim talking about the musical Urinetown
My friend just told me that in January they filmed for two days just two blocks from her house! Now she tells me??!! They filmed Jim and Tea buying costumes at a costume shop. She said she was taking her daughter for a walk in the stroller and saw them setting up. She said Jim waved at her daughter and made a couple of funny faces, then went back inside. Damn!
ooh man how lucky! Id die if Jim waved at me haha.
i woudl be like this.....
j u l i a.
I think one reason it took so long to make this movie is that the film is shot alot on location instead of a soundstage and we got alot of rain this winter. I'm sure alot of exterior shots had to be rescheduled. That's just my theory.

I admit it, I am slightly Christmas bonkers. It's hard not to be inspired and full of joy in a season bursting with colour. One of my very favourite parts of the holidays is advent calendars. They are just so full of design possibilities from the traditional windowed illustration calendars to the most contemporary parcel-a-day designs. Advent calendars make the lead-up to Christmas special and full of anticipation while also creating some fantastic design avenues to explore. I could post a hundred photos but these are a few that have caught my eye over the last few weeks. A paper forest, a watercolour spectrum, an office window showcase – advent calendars are beautiful in their traditional meaning and ability to make the holidays even more magical.
As we open the final advent calendar window/parcel, I want to wish you (each and every person who kindly reads plenty of colour!) a very happy holiday season and all the very best in 2012. I can't believe that I started this blog exactly 11 months ago today. I am beyond grateful for the tremendous support I have received from all over the world. I started this blog because I saw a void in colour-focused design blogs and was hoping to just toss some hue-filled inspiration onto the Internet and maybe get a handful of visitors. I had no idea I would meet so many colour-loving, creative and supportive people. All of your emails, tweets and support in general has been amazing. Creating/running this blog has been a dream come true and I am so thankful for all of you who pop by for a bit of colour inspiration. Thank you. There are some changes on the horizon so expect bigger, better and more colourful things in 2012! – Chloé

The coalition is led by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, DUMBO Improvement District, and the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation.
A study conducted earlier this year found that technology industries in Brooklyn employ almost 10,000 people and generate $3.1 billion in economic output. The coalition predicts those numbers will double over the next three years.
The new team will focus on transportation and infrastructure improvement, design "place-making" ideas, and develop real estate and policy strategies to help entice additional tech companies to locate in Brooklyn.
The group led by WXY Architecture + Urban Design was chosen from a field of 17 different teams and more than 60 firms.
"Nearly all of the city's top design, architecture and engineering firms submitted a proposal for the Tech Triangle planning study," said Tucker Reed, president of the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, "which is a real testament to the opportunities on the horizon for the greater Downtown Brooklyn area.
"After a thorough review process, we selected a team that we are confident addressed our needs," he added.
"If you take a walk around the streets of DUMBO, you are likely to run into the CEOs and employees of the country's hottest tech and design companies," said Alexandria Sica, executive director of the DUMBO Improvement District. "We know that tech wants to be here, but it is also out responsibility to ensure that there is space for all the firms that want to call DUMBO home."

With the new Daniel Craig James Bond movie, Skyfall, about to hit theaters it's that time again to argue over the best Bond cars of all time!
And once again it's the Aston Martin DB5.
For us, it's always the DB5. After all these years, it's STILL the DB5.
Which makes us wonder why the movie franchise's producers haven't been able to create a better and more tricked-out Bond vehicle after five decades.
Seriously, what's up with that?
We've had the Pierce Brosnan iteration of James Bond windsurf down a giant iceberg as it's being melted by a giant laser — can the move minds really not think up an idea to top the DB5?
Maybe they should consider a custom car. We could think of a few ….

BWW Reviews: Baltimore Symphony Orchestra's 2012 Concert a Huge Success
I had an extra ticket to the recent Preview Concert given by Maestra Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. They were to present excerpts from some of the pieces of the upcoming season.
After I noticed the SRO sign by the box office, I wanted to give the ticket to a young student looking for a ticket and I found one. Boy, did I find one.
He is Yanbin Chen, a trumpet player from Shanghai China who attends the Peabody Conservatory of Music. He's not just a trumpet player. He plays First Trumpet in the Peabody Conservatory Orchestra and happens to take lessons from the First Trumpet player of the Baltimore Symphony, Andrew Balio. (There's a huge poster of him right outside the front of the Meyerhoff.) What a coincidence!
Maestra Alsop infused the evening with humor using a microphone to inform concert goers about each work she would be playing and thanking the audience for their continued loyalty while enticing new patrons to subscribe to the 96 year old BSO. The orchestra was in their white tie and tails.
When introducing selections from the"Symphonic Dances from West Side Story" suite, she mentioned the theme this season of music in the cinema. She mentioned the importance of music in films while discussing the gorgeous Bernard Hermann score for Alfred Hitchcock's "North by Northwest" and mentioned that his classic "The Birds" had none. I highly recommend a visit to New York's Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens, which has a lovely exhibit on film music. One sees a scene from a film with three different film scores and what a difference they make.
Bernstein's only film score was for "On the Waterfront" and the BSO played the overture last week-end. The BSO will accompany Charlie Chaplin's film "Modern Times" May 10-12 (with a score by Chaplin). There's even a new Broadway musical that just opened called CHAPLIN. Another film being shown is "Alexander Nevsky" with a score by Prokofiev.
But what may very well be one of the highlights of the season will be the BSO accompanying the film "West Side Story" June 14-16, 2013. As a prelude to this big event, the BSO played a suite from the score which was truly breathtaking. Normally, one hears a Broadway orchestra (usually under 20 instruments) in the orchestra pit. Here, there is NO pit. Just an orchestra of about 90 musicians. It was a great piece for the percussion section to shine. And the solo Oboe and French Horn were lovely. During "There's a Place for Us" you could hear a pin drop in the hall. And what an ovation Alsop received. I was surprised she never mentioned she studied conducting with Bernstein at Tanglewood.
Another film the orchestra will be playing along with is "Fantasia". One of the highlights of that film is Paul Dukas' Sorcerer's Apprentice". The audience really enjoyed it. Thanks to my new friend Yanbin, I can tell you there was a great solo by David P. Coombs on Contrabassoon. I closed my eyes and could visualize Mickey Mouse with his broom trying to get rid of the flood. While Alsop recalled she first saw the film when she was seven at Radio City Music Hall, I was reminiscing many years ago watching Arthur Fielder and the Boston Pops playing the music on the Esplanade by the Charles River.
Alsop believes that contemporary composer Christopher Rouse one of the great American composers along with Bernstein, Copeland and John Adams. She selected a modern piece which featured only the BSO percussion section, "Ku-ka-llimaku", which was outstanding. Kudos to Christopher Williams, John Locke, Brian Prechtl, Karen Haringa, and Jack Brennan. Many in the audience stood following the short 10 minute composition. I wish I was one of the few in the box seats overlooking the percussion section to get a bird's eye view.
An interesting series the BSO has instituted is the "Off the Cuff" series where on four Saturday nights, starting early (7 p.m.) with no intermission, Alsop dissects one piece of music and then performs it in its entirety. I tried it last season and really enjoyed it. She then proceeded to present a taste of the "Off the Cuff" series playing the first movement of Beethoven's 5th symphony. How many of you are humming, da da da daaaaa?
During intermission, members of the BSO, including Maestra Alsop, filtered into the lobby to talk with patrons. I got the opportunity to meet Yanbin's teacher, Andrew Balio who is just delightful. We had a lovely conversation and I learned he is writing a Broadway musical. Hope to have more on that later.
The second half began with another American composer, John Adams. His "Short Ride in a Fast Machine" was thoroughly enjoyable. Alsop swayed back and forth to the time kept by a wooden block. It is clear that she loved the five minute piece.
A piece by composer Richard Wagner was next. The BSO played his Liebestud from "Tristen and Isolde". It was truly beautiful, incredibly moving. The strings never sounded better.
Next was a bit of Rachmaninoff. Alsop conducted "Cinq Etudes-tableaux" (orchestrated by Respighi), which was commissioned by the other BSO, the Boston Symphony. This gorgeous piece will be part of all Rachmaninoff evening featuring Garrick Ohlsson on the piano playing what is known as the Rach 3 (remember the movie "Shine"?) to be performed in January.
It was fitting the concert ended with the fourth movement of Mahler's Symphony #1 in D Major, "The Titan". This piece was recorded by the BSO in September of 2008 and the CD is just being released. The audience responded with a terrific ovation. The Maestra signed copies of the new CD following the concert. I highly recommend it.
I also want to mention some theater-related concerts coming to the Meyerhoff. Coming February 22-24 will be "The Best of Broadway with Ashley Brown" with Jack Everly conducting. Brown is the original Broadway MARY POPPINS.
The highlight of the season will be "Hairspray in Concert" January 25 to January 27, 2013 also under the baton of Jack Everly. Narrating the evening will be the one and only John Waters!!
Starring as soloists will be Micky Dolenz, yes, THAT Micky Dolenz from "The Monkees", playing the role of Wilbur Turnblad. Tony winner for DROWSY CHAPERONE, Beth Level, will play Velma Von Tussle, they'll be two former members of the Broadway cast Paul Vogt (Edna) and Marissa Perry (Tracy), and straight from PORGY AND BESS on Broadway, NaTasha Yvette Williams, will play Motormouth Maybelle. Get your tickets soon for this one.

Maestra Alsop Discusses Bernstein's "Kaddish" at the Owings Mills Jewish Community Center
On September 19, 2012, the Maestra took time from her busy schedule to take part in a discussion of Leonard Bernstein's "Kaddish" with Chazzan Emanuel Perlman of Chizuk Amuno Congregation. Over two hundred attended an interesting discussion of the piece and learned a little about Alsop's relationship with the composer.
Part of the BSO's American Music Festival, the performances of "Kaddish" were intentionally scheduled to coincide with the Jewish High Holidays. Perlman mentioned that the prayer, used when one is in mourning, never mentions God or death, nor is it mentioned in the Bible.
Perlman had a list of questions for the Maestra. But before she gave him a chance to start, she related her love for Bernstein began when her parents took her when she was nine to Lincoln Center for one of his famous "Young People's Concerts" televised on CBS. She was so enamored that she told her father that she wanted to be a conductor. She had two posters in the bedroom, one of the Beatles and one of Bernstein. "He was my first crush", she added.
She continued that the first time she met him was when she was a Conducting Fellow with the Boston Symphony at Tanglewood. He gave her lessons just three years before he died. She also traveled with him to Japan.
Alsop stated that music is the voice of the human soul. She played excerpts of the work and one could see her imagining she was conducting. She finds it transformative. Bernstein she added finished the work after the assassination of President Kennedy and it was premiered at the Kennedy Center.
When asked if "Kaddish" connected with other religions, she quickly said yes. She commented, "All of his music has religious underpinnings. "Chichester Psalms" was written for a Cathedral in England and sung in Hebrew. Even his "Mass" has many lyrics in Hebrew."
It was interesting to hear that Bernstein had thought of changing his name because of his experience with prejudice, but he refused. She added, "He brought a humanity to his music."
She was pleased to announce that two of Bernstein's children, Jamie and Alex, will be in attendance for the concerts Sept. 28-30. Also performing with the BSO will be the Washington Chorus, the Maryland State Boys Choir, soprano Kelley Massif, and narrator, actress Claire Bloom.
"Kaddish" will be performed Friday night Sept. 28 and Sunday afternoon Sept. 30 at the Meyerhoff and Saturday night, Sept. 29 at Strathmore Hall in Rockville, MD.
