Weatherizing older homes is hard, isolating, and often thankless work. It involves a lot of squeezing into tight, dusty spaces, many of which are hung with cobwebs and studded with rusty nails. So when weatherization workers get together for regional conferences, it's only natural they should want to show off their skills in front of those best equipped to appreciate them: their peers.
The weatherizing crew that worked on this wall section achieved excellent density and found most of the cavities, including the one defined by the hidden diagonal brace at upper right. Unfortunately, they completely missed the narrow stud bay at far left - an omission that would significantly reduce the final R-value of a real-world wall assembly.
Bob Scott, a former director of the West Virginia weatherization program, has been judging crew-skills competitions for years. He says that these events are designed to approximate the conditions faced by workers in the field - though without the spiders, bats, and other wildlife. In one regular event, for example, crews build an air-sealed enclosure around an attic-mounted hvac unit, working while perched atop simulated joists blocked above the floor. Scott also recalls a conference at which enterprising organizers hauled a complete mobile home onto the exhibit-hall floor for a blower-door and duct-leakage competition.
Freestanding wall assemblies used in the dense-pack cellulose competition consist of 2x4 framing sheathed on both sides with plywood. The outer layer of building paper serves as camouflage: It hides the nailheads in the sheathing that would otherwise provide a road map of the framing beneath.
A perennial crowd-pleaser is the dense-pack cellulose competition, in which two-person crews face off to see which can most efficiently air-seal and insulate a sample wall section. As in a real-world house with uninsulated walls, the location and spacing of the framing members is unknown. Crews must find and completely fill every framing cavity by boring through the sheathing and tracking the position of the cellulose nozzle as they work their way along.
Spectators wait expectantly for the judges to unscrew the sheathing panels and evaluate the installed cellulose. If the scene looks something like a rodeo, that's because this particular competition was held in an agricultural sciences building at a Virginia university.
When their time is up, the judges unscrew the plywood back panels on each wall section and grade the installation for completeness, with any unfilled cavities costing the team points. The test walls are also scored on how closely the fill density approaches 3.5 pounds per cubic foot - generally considered the optimum amount for eliminating settling and providing effective air-sealing without using unnecessary material. Although quality is the most important factor in judging performance, speed plays a part too: In cases where quality is otherwise the same, the fastest team wins.

CINCINNATI (AP) - Chris Heisey's single in the bottom of the ninth inning ended Cincinnati's record scoreless streak to open a season and sent the Reds to a 1-0 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday night following a long rain delay.
The Reds set a modern franchise record by failing to score in the first 17 innings of the season. Their previous worst was 13 scoreless innings in 1909 and 1934.
Ryan Ludwick and Todd Frazier opened the ninth with singles off Carlos Martinez (0-1). After a sacrifice, Brayan Pena was walked to load the bases and the pinch-hitting Heisey singled up the middle.
The Reds were the last team in the majors to score a run this season. Heisey's hit broke an 0 for 11 slump with runners in scoring position.

- About Ateneum
Mika Waltari and Artist Friends
Ateneum's exhibition in honour of the 100th anniversary of Mika Waltari's (1908–1979) birth sheds light on the author's passionate interest in the visual arts. The exhibition presents the work of five artists who were of importance to Waltari: altogether over 200 paintings from Eemu Myntti (1890–1943), Yrjö Saarinen (1899–1958), Otto Mäkilä (1904–1955), Mauno Markkula (1905–1959) and Aimo Kanerva (1909–1991). The public will now for the first time have a chance to see art from the author's own home. There is also plenty of material relating to Waltari's career in the exhibition, such as original manuscripts and book cover art as well as film posters and excerpts. The exhibition is curated by PhD Tuula Karjalainen.
The exhibition Mika Waltari and Artist Friends tells of what the visual arts can mean for another artist, a writer. Eemu Myntti, Yrjö Saarinen, Otto Mäkilä, Mauno Markkula and Aimo Kanerva were all forceful artists of profound feeling who were unconditionally committed to their work. The same passion defined Mika Waltari's own work as a writer. Waltari wrote about the work of these artists he admired, and bought their works for his home. He was also friends with most of them for several decades.
"During my creative years, my difficult years, and times of depression, art gave a great deal to me. It filled my emptiness and made my life again worth living, perhaps exactly because the modes of expression of art are completely other than those of literature." – Mika Waltari, 1977
The visual arts had a great impact on Waltari's writing, and his texts are highly visual. Waltari has said that he surrounded himself with art. For him, paintings were friends and companions. He was an active visitor to art exhibitions and museums, and Ateneum's exhibition will also show a mummy and sarcophagus as a reminder of the author's love for ancient artefacts and history.
Mika Waltari's oeuvre is a significant chapter of Finnish cultural history. Ateneum's exhibition reflects the various aspects of Mika Waltari's life. His works created their own visual world, particularly influential on Finnish book-cover art. There are also e.g. film posters, book posters and excerpts of films written by Waltari on view, as well as costumes designed for the Sinuhe ballet. Waltari's own voice can be heard on taped interviews, and his text lives on in the work of contemporary artist Charles Sandison (b. 1969) in Ateneum's main staircase.

PHOENIX (AP) - State prosecutors say there's no evidence that the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency is biased and a death-row inmate will get a fair and impartial hearing.
Lawyers for Edward Schad filed a lawsuit in federal court last week seeking to postpone his scheduled Oct. 9 execution.
They've also asked four clemency board members to recuse themselves from Wednesday's scheduled clemency hearing in Florence.
In a response to the court Monday, Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne says the allegations against the board are unsubstantiated.
The 71-year-old Schad was convicted in the 1978 killing of a Bisbee man.
His scheduled execution last March was postponed when the U.S. Supreme Court denied the state's request to lift a lower court's order blocking the execution. The high court reinstated Schad's death sentence in June.

Q&A: My 3-week-old baby chokes while bottle feeding. How can I help?
My 3 week old chokes often when feeding on a bottle. I was breastfeeding exclusively for 2 1/2 weeks but decided to alternate formula and expressed breastmilk due to extremely sore nipples. Whether I'm feeding her breastmilk or formula in a bottle, she seems to choke at least once every feeding. When she is feeding, she seems to be drinking fast and milk sometimes comes out the side of her mouth. I've tried to put her in an upright position, but this doesn't seem to help much. I do notice that she chokes less when she is calm, but calming her is sometimes very hard to do. I have even tried to feed her right when I notice that she is hungry, but she still chokes. I'm very worried about this and it makes me very upset to see her like this. Do you have any suggestions?
From the details of your question, I gather that there was no choking when you breast fed, so abnormalities of the nose, mouth or esophagus shouldn't be a concern. The problem, then must be within the feeding unit of baby, food and delivery system(bottle). Feeding from the breast requires a slightly different technique than bottle feeding, and usually means a stronger suck. If your daughter is applying the same force to the bottle, she will get the milk faster. Perhaps she is gagging on the excess volume. Slowing her down and calming her are the right responses, and she might even make her own adjustments over time without your help. The other option is to search for a bottle system that most closely resembles the shape of a human nipple, which is shorter and squater than the standard bottle nipple. The one that I know of is the Playtex system that includes a short, tan nipple, a hollow cylinder and disposable plastic inserts for the formula or milk. This may slow down the volume of milk per suck during feeding. If it doesn't help, try to find a lactation consultant in your area who can watch the feeding event and may be able to trouble shoot the problem for you. Good Luck!

Clara Schumann
|Clara Schumann
Portrait by Franz von Lenbach, 1878
|Clara Josephine Wieck
13 September 1819
|20 May 1896
(aged 76)
Frankfurt, German Empire
Cause of death
|Pianist, composer
|Robert Schumann (m. 1840; died 1856)
Clara Schumann (née Clara Josephine Wieck; 13 September 1819 – 20 May 1896) was a German musician and composer, considered one of the most distinguished pianists of the Romantic era. She exerted her influence over a 61-year concert career, changing the format and repertoire of the piano recital and the tastes of the listening public. Her husband was the composer Robert Schumann. Together they encouraged Johannes Brahms, and she was the first pianist to give public performances of some of Brahms's works, notably the Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel.[1]
Early life[edit]
Clara Josephine Wieck was born in Leipzig on 13 September 1819 to Friedrich Wieck and Marianne Wieck (née Tromlitz).[2] Marianne Tromlitz was a famous singer in Leipzig at the time and was singing solos on a weekly basis at the well-known Gewandhaus in Leipzig.[3] The differences between her parents were irreconcilable, in large part due to her father's unyielding nature.[3] After an affair between Clara's mother and Adolph Bargiel, her father's friend,[4] the Wiecks divorced in 1824 and Marianne married Bargiel. Five-year-old Clara remained with her father.
Child prodigy[edit]
From an early age, Clara's career and life was planned down to the smallest detail by her father. She daily received a one-hour lesson (in piano, violin, singing, theory, harmony, composition, and counterpoint), and two hours of practice, using the teaching methods he had developed on his own. In March 1828, at the age of eight, the young Clara Wieck performed at the Leipzig home of Dr. Ernst Carus, director of the mental hospital at Colditz Castle. There she met another gifted young pianist who had been invited to the musical evening, named Robert Schumann, who was nine years older. Schumann admired Clara's playing so much that he asked permission from his mother to discontinue his law studies, which had never interested him much, and take music lessons with Clara's father. While taking lessons, he took rooms in the Wieck household, staying about a year. He would dress up as a ghost and scare Clara. This created a bond, and a decade later, in 1840, despite her father's objections, Clara would marry Robert.[2]
In 1830, at the age of eleven, Clara left on a concert tour to Paris via other European cities, accompanied by her father. She gave her first solo concert at the Leipzig Gewandhaus. In Weimar, she performed a bravura piece by Henri Herz for Goethe, who presented her with a medal with his portrait and a written note saying: "For the gifted artist Clara Wieck". During that tour, Niccolò Paganini was in Paris, and he offered to appear with her.[5] However, her Paris recital was poorly attended, as many people had fled the city due to an outbreak of cholera.[5]
The appearance of this artist can be regarded as epoch-making.... In her creative hands, the most ordinary passage, the most routine motive acquires a significant meaning, a colour, which only those with the most consummate artistry can give.
|An anonymous music critic, writing of Clara Wieck's 1837–1838 Vienna recitals[6]
At the age of 18, Clara Wieck performed a series of recitals in Vienna from December 1837 to April 1838.[6] Austria's leading dramatic poet, Franz Grillparzer, wrote a poem entitled "Clara Wieck and Beethoven" after hearing Wieck perform the Appassionata sonata during one of these recitals.[6] Wieck performed to sell-out crowds and laudatory critical reviews; Benedict Randhartinger, a friend of Franz Schubert, gave Wieck an autographed copy of Schubert's Erlkönig, inscribing it "To the celebrated artist, Clara Wieck."[6] Frédéric Chopin described her playing to Franz Liszt, who came to hear one of Wieck's concerts and subsequently "praised her extravagantly in a letter that was published in the Parisian Revue et Gazette Musicale and later, in translation, in the Leipzig journal Neue Zeitschrift für Musik."[7] On 15 March, Wieck was named a Königliche und Kaiserliche Kammervirtuosin ("Royal and Imperial Chamber Virtuoso"), Austria's highest musical honor.[7]
In her early years her repertoire, selected by her father, was showy and popular, in the style common to the time, with works by Kalkbrenner, Henselt, Thalberg, Herz, Pixis, Czerny, and her own compositions. As she matured, however, becoming more established and planning her own programmes, she began to play works by the new Romantic composers, such as Chopin, Mendelssohn and, of course, Robert Schumann, as well as the great, less showy, more "difficult" composers of the past, such as Scarlatti, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert. She also frequently appeared in chamber music recitals of works by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schumann, and Brahms.[5]
Later career[edit]
Clara Schumann's reputation brought her into contact with the leading musicians of the day, including Mendelssohn, Chopin, and Liszt. She also met violinist Joseph Joachim, who became one of her frequent performance partners.
Clara Schumann often took charge of the finances and general household affairs. Part of her responsibility included making money, which she did by giving concerts, although she continued to play throughout her life not only for the income, but because she was a concert artist by training and by nature.
After Robert's death (29 July 1856), Clara devoted herself principally to the interpretation of his works. But when she first visited England in 1856, largely through the good offices of William Sterndale Bennett, the English composer and friend of her late husband, the critics received Robert's music with a chorus of disapproval. She returned to London in 1865 and continued her visits annually, with the exception of four seasons, until 1882. She also appeared there each year from 1885 to 1888.
She played a particular role in restoring Brahms's D minor concerto to the general repertory; it had fallen out of favour after its premiere, and was only rehabilitated in the 1870s, thanks mainly to the efforts of Clara Schumann and Brahms himself.[5]
She was initially interested in the works of Liszt, but later developed an outright hostility to him. She ceased to play any of his works; she suppressed her husband's dedication to Liszt of his Fantasie in C major when she published Schumann's complete works; and she refused to attend a Beethoven centenary festival in Vienna in 1870 when she heard that Liszt and Richard Wagner would be participating.[5]
She was particularly scathing of Wagner. Of Tannhäuser, she said that he "wears himself out in atrocities"; she described Lohengrin as "horrible"; and she wrote that Tristan und Isolde was "the most repugnant thing I have ever seen or heard in all my life".[5]
In 1878 she was appointed teacher of the piano at the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt am Main, a post she held until 1892 and in which she contributed greatly to the improvement of modern piano playing technique.
She held Anton Bruckner, whose 7th Symphony she heard in 1885, in very low esteem. She wrote to Brahms, describing it as "a horrible piece". She was more impressed with Richard Strauss's early Symphony in F minor in 1887.[5]
Clara Schumann played her last public concert in Frankfurt on 12 March 1891. The last work she played was Brahms's Variations on a Theme by Haydn, in the piano-duet version.
She suffered a stroke on 26 March 1896, dying on 20 May at age 76. She is buried at Bonn's Alter Friedhof (Old Cemetery) with her husband.
She was portrayed onscreen by Katharine Hepburn in the 1947 film Song of Love, in which Paul Henreid played Robert Schumann and Robert Walker starred as a young Johannes Brahms.[8]
She was also portrayed in the 2008 Franco-German-Hungarian film Geliebte Clara.
Although for many years after her death Clara Schumann was not widely recognized as a composer, as a pianist she made an impression which lasts until today. She was one of the first pianists to perform from memory, making that the standard for concertizing. Trained by her father to play by ear and to memorize, she gave public performances from memory as early as age thirteen, a fact noted as something exceptional by her reviewers.[9]
She was also instrumental in changing the kind of programs expected of concert pianists. In her early career, before her marriage to Robert, she played what was then customary, mainly bravura pieces designed to showcase the artist's technique, often in the form of arrangements or variations on popular themes from operas, written by virtuosos such as Thalberg, Herz, or Henselt. And, as it was also customary to play one's own compositions, she included at least one of her own works in every program, works such as her Variations on a Theme by Bellini (Op. 8) and her popular Scherzo (Op. 10). However, after settling into married life, probably under the influence of Robert, her performances focused almost exclusively on more serious music by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, and Schumann.[10]
Clara Schumann's influence also spread through her teaching, which emphasized a singing tone and expression, with technique entirely subordinated to the intentions of the composer. One of her students, Mathilde Verne, carried her teaching to England where she taught, among others, Solomon; while another of her students, Carl Friedberg, carried the tradition to the Juilliard School in America, where his students included Malcolm Frager and Bruce Hungerford.[11]
Clara was also instrumental in getting the works of Robert Schumann recognized, appreciated and added to the repertoire. She promoted him tirelessly, beginning when his music was unknown or disliked, when the only other important figure in music to play Schumann occasionally was Liszt, and continuing until the end of her long career.
Clara Schumann was the main breadwinner for her family through giving concerts and teaching, and she did most of the work of organizing her own concert tours. She refused to accept charity when a group of musicians offered to put on a benefit concert for her. In addition to raising her own large family, when one of her children became incapacitated, she took on responsibility for raising her grandchildren. During the May Uprising in Dresden in 1849, she famously walked into the city through the front lines, defying a pack of armed men who confronted her, rescued her children, then walked back out of the city through the dangerous areas again.
Her family life was punctuated by tragedy. Four of her eight children and her husband died before she did, and her husband and one of her sons ended their lives in insane asylums. Her first son Emil died in infancy in 1847, aged only one. Her husband Robert had a mental collapse, attempted suicide in 1854, and was committed to an insane asylum for the last two years of his life. In 1872 her daughter Julie died, leaving two small children aged only 2 and 7. In 1879, her son Felix, died aged 25 with her. Her son Ludwig suffered from mental illness, like his father, and, in her words, had to be "buried alive" in an institution. Her son Ferdinand died at the age of 42 in 1891 and she was required to raise his children and he was no longer married. She herself became deaf in later life and she often needed a wheelchair.[5]
Composing gives me great pleasure... there is nothing that surpasses the joy of creation, if only because through it one wins hours of self-forgetfulness, when one lives in a world of sound.—Clara Schumann
Clara has composed a series of small pieces, which show a musical and tender ingenuity such as she has never attained before. But to have children, and a husband who is always living in the realm of imagination, does not go together with composing. She cannot work at it regularly, and I am often disturbed to think how many profound ideas are lost because she cannot work them out.—Robert Schumann in the joint diary of Robert and Clara Schumann.
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (July 2012)
As part of the broad musical education given her by her father, Clara Wieck learned to compose, and from childhood to middle age she produced a good body of work. At age fourteen she wrote her piano concerto, with some help from Robert Schumann, and performed it at age sixteen at the Leipzig Gewandhaus with Mendelssohn conducting.
As she grew older, however, she lost confidence in herself as a composer, writing, "I once believed that I possessed creative talent, but I have given up this idea; a woman must not desire to compose — there has never yet been one able to do it. Should I expect to be the one?" In fact, Wieck-Schumann's compositional output decreased notably after she reached the age of thirty-six. The only compositions that exist from later in her life are cadenzas written to two concertos – one by Mozart and the other by Beethoven – and some sketches for a piece that never reached completion.[12] Today her compositions are increasingly performed and recorded. Her works include songs, piano pieces, a piano concerto, a piano trio, choral pieces, and three Romances for violin and piano. Inspired by her husband's birthday, the three Romances were composed in 1853 and dedicated to Joseph Joachim, who performed them for George V of Hanover. He declared them a "marvellous, heavenly pleasure".[13]
Wieck-Schumann was the authoritative editor of her husband's works for the publishing firm of Breitkopf & Härtel.

When you get your heart broken, there's one thing that tends to obsess you: Getting closure. How many times did you or your friend use that excuse to contact the ex, have a phone call or meeting? Or even sex? "Well, I just have to get some closure," you or your friend say. Hey, I've been guilty of it myself. In fact, I recently found myself in an email discussion with an ex, and at the end of it, I wrote something like, "Well, it's nice to get some closure."
I didn't really feel much closure, to be honest. He still said things I knew to not be true. I still wondered why I'd given the relationship so many damn chances, despite my gut telling me things were not right. And I still wondered why he'd done X, Y, and Z. But closure -- that thing that ties up your relationship in a big bow and explains all -- is that elusive unicorn we chase after a split. Why?! Hannah Brecher writes poignantly in The Huffington Post about the illusion of closure.
Hannah writes of her own misguided efforts to find "closure":
When I was 16 years old, my best friends and I used to hold "Closure Ceremonies." If you can imagine four girls sitting around in a circle smashing necklaces and teddy bears to bits with hammers until the voice boxes that said "I love you" fell out from their stuffed guts, then that was us. We were lovesick girls with anthems of bravery within us. We burned love notes. We screamed and cussed a bit. And then we held one another. We didn't give answers.
Maybe that's it. We just need some kind of ritual. Burn the love letters. Photoshop him out of the photos. But can you ever really find closure? Here are 5 reasons closure is a myth:
The Big Talk
You might be tempted -- or even demand -- some kind of big talk with your ex to find out what went wrong. But the truth is, there is no truth. There's his, there's yours, and there's somewhere in the middle. You two wouldn't have gotten to this point if you had good communication. Don't expect it now. Chances are he's just going to say a lot of stuff to irritate you -- and if he does say something nice like, "I really did love you," then you'll just be all the more upset that it didn't work out.
You're Both Different People
You may finally figure out that your obsession with dogs was a dealbreaker with him, or you may finally acknowledge that his selfishness is abhorrent, but you're both different people than you were in the relationship. You can never go back and undo anything, or even understand it fully, because you're not that person anymore. And chances are, he has changed too.
If he's changed for the better -- oh, so NOW you love dogs too? -- you're just going to hate the fact that he couldn't understand your love for them while you were together.
Not Knowing
Asking someone why he broke up with you, or why it didn't work out, is an exercise in futility. Chances are, he may not even know himself. And if there are concrete reasons on his end, such as, "I hated your parents" or "I fell in love with my coworker," do you really need to know this? No, you don't.
Life Is Messy
Unlike a movie or book, where there is a clear beginning, middle, and ending, there usually isn't with life. For every "why" your ex might be able to answer, there are probably 10 he can't or won't. Or will, leaving you even more hurt and confused.
While it can be really difficult to live with not knowing WHY, and not quite understanding, love can be like the weather. Meteorolologically, we understand hurricanes. Emotionally, we don't. We will never get an answer to "Why did this hurricane destroy my house?" other than "You were in its path."
Have you ever tried to get closure?
Image via C.J. Burton/Corbis
My ex boyfriend and I were together for a year and we shared so much in common. He would tell me how happy he was to be able to share the things he enjoyed doing with me. And we were both in love and never fought. We were always happy and laughing. It was the best year of my life. Until the day everything broke apart, and he ended it. Two weeks later he started dating someone else. I've heard they met after the break up, so I don't think he cheated. For 2& 1/2 months I struggled to forget him but to no avail I was unable to get over him. He is still the first person I think of when I wake up and the last when I go to bed. I can't get over him no matter what I do and I know that only hurting myself. I just wish there was some way I could get him back in my life and quick because I can't spend another day without him in my life. I searched a lot for solutions, until I found this website ( http://howtomakeanexboyfriendwantyouback.com) . I decided to give it a try to help me bring my lover back home. Truly it didn't take me much time after applying the techniques I found on that site, and believe me after 3 weeks of committing to these techniques I got him back, that is why I am happy to make everyone of you have his lover back in his life once again.

Gallery Information
I. Student Gallery Access
Students will be allowed access into the Atrium of the Gallery from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays. This does not permit entrance into closed galleries or other areas where security is not present. Students should enter the Gallery through the New York Avenue entrance. Guests of students must follow general museum visitor guidelines.
ii. Gallery Membership
All degree students enrolled at the College are entitled to a free Corcoran Gallery of Art membership, which includes free admission to the Gallery, a 10 percent discount at the Corcoran Shop and Muse Café and member prices on all Corcoran programs. Permanent student IDs will act as a membership card.
iii. Visitor Guidelines and Regulations
The Corcoran is dedicated to preserving its collection as well as all traveling exhibitions, and want to ensure that all visitors have a pleasant and safe experience. Please refer to the below guidelines when planning a visit.
- Oversized bags, backpacks, and rear-facing child carriers must be left with security upon entry to the Gallery. Strollers are permitted.
- Flash photography is never permitted. Photography is not permitted in special exhibition galleries and limited in permanent collection galleries.
- Sketching is allowed in the galleries; only pencil and pads of paper small enough to be handheld.
- Sending/receiving cell phone calls is discouraged in all galleries. It is disruptive to other visitors viewing the exhibitions. Please use the Atrium area for these calls.
- Food and beverages are permitted within the Café area only. Food and beverages may not be brought inside the Gallery.
- Only service animals are permitted in the Gallery. They must be leashed at all times.
- Special needs persons (wheelchairs, walkers, heavy strollers, etc) are encouraged to make advanced arrangement for facility access by calling (202) 639-1793 . It is not mandatory that you do so.
- Please check our website prior to your visit to confirm our hours of operation, exhibitions on view and any special pricing related to traveling exhibitions we may be hosting.
- Degree seeking students, faculty, and staff must wear their current Corcoran identification badges at all times when in the museum. ID's must be worn in a visible place, to avoid questioning from museum staff and security.
iv. Obtaining Museum Vouchers
All currently enrolled Corcoran full-time degree-seeking students may request vouchers for their family for complimentary admission into the museum. To obtain them, students must have a valid Corcoran ID. Students may come to the Office of Student Affairs one week prior to use. Students can receive a limited number of vouchers per semester.
v. Public Programs
All full-time degree-seeking students are granted complimentary admission to on-site Public Program lectures and performances. Complimentary admission must be arranged in advance through the Public Programs department. A Corcoran ID must be presented at the door for admission.
Part-time degree-seeking students programs and students from other institutions may purchase tickets at the student price, which is half the cost of a public ticket.
For all on-site Public Programs lectures and performances, a total of ten standing room only spaces will be reserved for Corcoran staff, faculty, docents, and full-time Corcoran students. These spots will be delegated on a first-come, first-served basis—advance registration is therefore necessary to guarantee admission into the program. In the event that the program is not sold out, Corcoran affiliates are invited to take a seat.
Public Programs staff will make every effort to accommodate everyone interested in attending a sold-out program. Once all available tickets are purchased, and all ten standing room only spots are reserved, a program is sold out. Corcoran staff, faculty, docents, and full-time Corcoran students are asked to stand for the program so that all participants who paid for a ticket will have a seat.
On the night of a sold-out program, one half hour before it begins, the on-site coordinator will start a waiting list. Names will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis. Corcoran staff, faculty, docents, and full-time Corcoran students are welcome to add their name to this list, but entry cannot be guaranteed. We will try to accommodate as many people (Corcoran ID holders and public) as possible, but entry cannot be guaranteed.
If College staff or faculty members wish to secure attendance for a certain group or class, requests must be submitted to the Public Programs department two weeks in advance. Permission must be granted by the director of public education. The department will make every effort to accommodate such requests, but permission is not guaranteed. Requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Corcoran staff and faculty members who wish to bring a guest(s) to the program must purchase a ticket for their guest. Public Programs will extend the Corcoran member ticket rate to the guests of Corcoran staff and faculty.
To register, please select the 'Programs and Events' tab at www.corcoran.org , and follow instructions for registering for a student, staff, or faculty ticket. A Corcoran email address must be used during online registration to verify enrollment or employment by the Corcoran. You may also register by calling (202) 639-1770 or visiting the Public Programs office.

The Quinnipiac women's basketball team's last day in Florence marked the midway point of their trip abroad.The team spent the Italian Assumption Holiday visiting many of the city's treasures, also adding a sightseeing tour of the city of Pisa and the famous Leaning Tower. The Bobcats explored the town visiting the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, or Florence Cathedral and the fourth largest church in Europe which is lavishly decorated in red, white, and green marble. Making their way around the church, the Bobcats came upon the Accademia Gallery which is home to Michaelangleo's most famous masterpiece, the sculpture of David. The team was able to learn, from a local tour guide, the artistry and techniques of the carvings and silhouettes during the time period.

GUARDS are living proof that this Twitter / Internet malarkey actually works! Closely affiliated CULTS (you don't get any closer than your own sister) tweeted an update to their mighty list of followers a few months back that they feature on a new EP by GUARDS.
Cue media explosion that sees the band reach record downloads on Bandcamp (the future - Richie Follin), and start a frenzy of label and booking agent war. The truth lies in the fact that intrigue in this very day and age with the immediacy of social networking is still as relevant as it has always been inside the music industry.
Cause a stir, then a buzz, a maelstrom will surely then ensue. BANG! - we have the next big thing, right there, on your laptop, iPod or iPhone before you even know what hit you. Imagine if Marty McFly in Back to the Future opted to wig out on Eart...

Kip Moore and Vince Gill are among the stars making cameos on ABC's Nashville Wednesday night. Pam Tillis and Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys also appear in the show attending a birthday party for the show's character Deacon at the Bluebird Café.
The episode was shot earlier this month, and Vince tells ABC News Radio that he was invited to appear on the show because of his friendship with the cast.
"Over the last few months, I've gotten to know [them]," Vince explains. "They're really supportive of coming out in the community and doing neat things, and I've just gotten to really like them."
He says he joked to Nashville star Connie Britton, "I watch the show all the time and it looks like you're struggling to find a guitar player. If you ever need one, I know a good one who lives at my house!"
The very next day, Vince laughs, "They called and said, "Hey, you wanna come be on the show?' And I said 'Okay!'"
Nashville airs Wednesday night at 10 Eastern on ABC.

Ann Supple Massey, the owner and founder of Rouge Cosmetics, has personally tested every product in her store, from the eye shadows to the moisturizers to the body fragrances. Her discerning eye is one of the reasons the store was awarded "Best of Boston" for makeup shopping in Boston Magazine in 2009. In addition to time-tested favorites from industry leaders such as Nars, Stila, and bareMinerals, clients also find products from more exclusive brands such as Darphin and Blinc, whose ?Kiss Me? mascara has graced the lashes of celebrities Jessica Alba, Rachel McAdams, and Jessica Rabbit.
Most of the aestheticians and makeup artists at Rouge have experience working at photo shoots and fashion shows, so they?re primed to help customers with a range of beauty needs. During private makeup lessons, they guide customers through popular techniques such as the smokey eye, and also acquaint them with tools and beauty products tailored to their personal style. The shop offers several other services, including bridal makeup and false lash applications.
During service sessions, owner and stylist Amanda Furnari doesn't just sit back and watch her team work—she rolls up her sleeves, pulls out her shears, and gets to work. As an industry veteran with more than eight years of experience, Furnari carries certifications in SoCap and Balmain hair extensions as well as Schwarzkopf color. And it's these types of skill sets that helped her salon win Salem/Beverly's Best Hair Salon by Market Surveys of America in 2011.
Furnari and her fellow female stylists bolster natural beauty with salon services that include color treatments, hairstyling, waxing, and makeup applications. And as they work their magic, the team members take clients to cloud nine thanks to the salon's sky-blue walls, soft, white salon chairs, and famous glass elevator that goes to nowhere.
Gynecologist Dr. William Edwards supervises a team of skin specialists, laser technicians, and makeup artists as they perform advanced beauty services to spur bodies' healing both inside and out. Technicians initiate complimentary consultations to understand patients' beauty goals before they suggest an appropriate course of treatment. A fleet of Affirm lasers combats signs of aging such as age spots, fine lines, and scars in the shape of birthday cakes with 90 candles on them. Beauty injections including Botox and Juvéderm temporarily soften wrinkles without the downtime or pain of surgical procedures. Suite 103's seasoned makeup artists perform a color analysis before sweeping on natural, elegant looks for brides and teens.
The skilled stylists at Hair Express highlight beautiful people with bold, bombshell hair. Each one is trained and up-to-date on both classic and modern styles and thus capable of recreating a look from a magazine, photograph, or cave painting. And available color processes range from simple color correction to full color to multidimensional highlights. The team also specializes in dry cutting techniques and tending to wedding parties on the bride and her tribe's big day.
Peacock Alley is a family salon located in the Vinnin Square area. Our stylists want you to feel pampered from the time you walk in until your experience with us is through. All of our stylists attend Paul Mitchell and Loreal classes on a regular basis to stay educated on the latest cuts, colors, and products.
We offer traditional tanning, custom airbrush tanning, mobile custom airbrush tanning, & airbrush tanning parties!!

Supercar builders like Bugatti and Pagani have made a living building special, one-off supercars for their exclusive clientele. Recently, their Swedish counterpart, Koenigsegg , has been getting some buzz for doing the same.
In the past few months alone, multiple reports about an Agera X , an Agera R BLT and even a Koenigsegg One:1 have surfaced, giving further credence to the growing notion that Koenigsegg is knee deep in its client-customization program.
Guess what? A new variant of the Agera has been spotted lurking the streets of Hong Kong. These photos of what's being called the Agera S were taken by Ron Alder W Photography and he was kind enough to share them with us.
There's not much in terms of details surrounding the Agera S, although we've been told that the supercar was built by Koenigsegg for countries where biofuel is not readily available. What this means is that owners of this supercar can still enjoy the all of its 1,030 horsepower capabilities by using premium fuel instead of the Agera R's Flex biofuel capabilities.
As far as color choice is concerned, the Agera S looks to be sporting a sexy jade green color, which if you think about it, is appropriate for a country that holds jade — the jewel, not the color — in high regard.
We'll continue rolling out more information as it becomes available.
Update 12/3/2012: This review has been updated with higher-quality images and a good look at the sweet rims and massive brakes.

By Chrystel Boulet-Euchin
DUNKIRK, France (Reuters) - Laure Manaudou swam under the Olympic A time as she qualified for the 100 meters backstroke final at the French championships on Monday.
The 2004 Olympic 400 meters freestyle champion, who quit swimming in 2009 after becoming pregnant, returned to the sport last year in an attempt to qualify for the London Games.
She clocked 1:00.42 in the heats and then 1:00.58 in the semi-finals, under the required 1:00.82.
Manaudou will need to finish in the top two in Tuesday's final with a time under the Olympic A qualification mark.
"I started strong and I struggled a bit towards the end," Manaudou told reporters after her semi-final.
Camille Muffat looked impressive in the 400 meters freestyle final as she set the fastest time in the world this year of 4:01.13 to qualify for the Olympics.

Dear Brittany Kantack,
in response to the message you wrote to me, and then maturely blocked me, here it is for all the world to see. you're welcome.
Brittany Kantackkatelyn i wasn't going to get into this because i felt like it wasn't any of my business. but i think you should know that the reason why your relationship failed wasn't because of zach having aspergers syndrome. there is nothing wrong with my brother. aspergers is a form of autism & it is a complete insult that you would think my brother is impaired in anyway. my brother is fucking perfect & gave you everything any girl would wish for. you should probably take a look at yourself instead of pointing fingers & placing blame. i am extremely disappointed in how you have treated my family & brother. & that's putting it nicely. please get some help, you have some extreme issues.
when we called off the wedding, i sat down and really thought about what i wanted. i decided i needed to get my shit together, and I did. I DID. not zach. i tried in the end when it really mattered. he's the one that gave up. he's the one that broke up with me. he's the one that can't even give a real fuck about you or your mom or your dad. and that's come straight from his mouth to me, more than one time.
and before you start making assumptions about me, i think you should know that you have no place in doing so. and actually, if you want to act intelligent and tell me that you KNOW things you don't, why don't you google asperger's syndrome and see that it is NOT a form of autism. it's close to what autism is, but it is not a form of autism. also, your brother is far from perfect. and when you share the love we have and make love to him and deal with him on a level that i did everyday, then you can say whether or not he has something or he doesn't. i've done extensive research on the subject and has hesitantly come to the conclusion that he should get tested for it. he's the one that even put it in my head. he started saying it long before as a joke.
and just to go ahead and clear somethings up, i have appreciated everything zach has ever done for me. you wouldn't know. yes, he has given me a whole hell of a lot. but the most important thing he's left out was real and authentic socializing. i have literally been there for him in ways no one has ever. i know things about him that no one knows. he knows everything there is to know about me. and i am in no way saying i am blameless in this. but when i have a private conversation with the person i love about something very serious that is inhibiting our relationship, you should stay the fuck out, as well as your parents. your parents, whom i've loved and appreciated and treated better than my own. it's really shitty the way i've been treated throughout all of this. and that is a fact. no matter how much you feel the need to protect your brother, i have loved all of you guys and have always respected when respect was given, and even beyond that. i could go on, but frankly, i don't give a fuck about defending myself to you or your parents anymore. what we decide to do is COMPLETELY and TOTALLY up to zach and up to me. and no matter what you think, i have loved that boy as no one ever has. i am the only one that has ever wanted him… and it's bullshit the way this has unfolded.
And for further knowledge,
you can read this page and the one under it on the side bar,
and zach took this with me sitting here and scored a 36 on it.
oh, and p.fucking s. i know a little bit about fucking autism because i helped raise my (then) two year old step brother with it.

i have the cutest outfit planned out for today. hope it works out.

Pretty sure you've always wanted to see me naked.. Well.. I'm feeling pretty adventurous today so go to datelink5[dot]com (switch [dot] with .) then sign up and find my profile under the username 'lolsummer69'. I hid my face in the pictures. but I want you to guess who I am and then hit me up on Facebook lol. Good luck.
BAHAHA fucker. SPAM.
what i want
I want a lot of things, on the general level… like a maid, to be rich, and to do whatever I want. But, what I really long for is, of course, something deeper. It's something that you crave, something that you yearn for… Something big.
I want to read more. I want to expand my knowledge and become a faster reader. But I also want to know more stories, and see what other people dream up. I want to read things that people spend a lot of time writing. Because when I read, I don't think of just the stories that I'm reading. I think of what the author went through; how they created the characters and decided what the story would entail, and, most importantly, how the end should go. I want to fall into something completely different than what I'm experiencing. I want to feel more than what I see around me.
I want a job that I absolutely love. I want to spend those eight hours every day at a place that I adore. I want to love what I do, and do something that matters. I want something that really fits me. Something that I'm good at. I want to work somewhere that isn't hypocritical, somewhere that isn't double standardized, and somewhere that I can be myself. I want to be someone who makes a difference in someone's life.
I want to marry Zach. I want to be his wife, and him to be my husband. I want our life together to be magical. And I expect to be between a rock and a hard place more than we'd like to find ourselves. But, I want to wake up to him, and go to sleep thinking about him every day and night. I want to know that if I need someone to talk to, I know I could go to him. I want to have memories that make me smile, where Zach is making me laugh, or smile, or cry with happiness. I want to grow old with him, because I can't fathom living any longer without him. I want to have a family with him and love, love, love.
I want a child. I want a baby to hold and love and take care of. I want someone to put meaning to my life. I want to dress it up and feed it and sustain an actual life. But, more than that, I want to help shape a human life. I want to raise a child to be like what I believe people should be like. I want to watch a person grow, and learn, and make mistakes, and develop. I want to know that I made a difference in the world by creating, shaping, and ultimately releasing that person into the world. I want to feel the joy of creating a real person, and know the love and bond of that relationship. I want to think of my child and smile more than I do now by just thinking of what it could be like. I want to love something as deep as I do Zach. I want to know what it's like to bond with Zach because we made, created, developed someone that will change our lives, our world, our hearts.
I don't want a lot in terms of money or jewelry… But, the things I do want, they mean so much to me. And if those things are the only things I ever have, I'll die happily…. and hopefully very old.
