Penn Virginia Corporation: Has George Soros Arrived Too Late To The Party ?
Value Digger • Wed, Apr. 9 • 18 Comments
- Penn Virginia has shifted its strategy from a natural gas weighted company to an Eagle Ford play.
- Thanks to this transition, the company's stock has risen more than 200% over the last 12 months.
- The company's current valuation is not a compelling buying opportunity.
- There are currently other E&P companies to invest that combine much less risk with much higher potential reward than Penn Virginia.

Cleveland pastor indicted on two child sex counts11:07 am | July 19, 2012
CLEVELAND (AP) — A grand jury has indicted the pastor of a Cleveland church on child sex counts.
According to The Cleveland Daily Banner, Henry "Hank" Keith Davis was charged on two counts of sexual battery on a person under 18. Davis is pastor of the Church of the Harvest in Cleveland.
Davis was arrested Friday after the indictment was returned and was released from the Polk County Jail on $20,000 bond.
Investigators said a teenager told adults that Davis fondled her during a youth group trip to Parksville Lake.
A call Wednesday to the church was answered by a recording that would not accept a message.
Davis is scheduled to appear in court July 23.


text: If you just shut off the water to the house there is no way the heater could "rupture" and cause damage. If it were to develop a hole at the bottom, the air lock would prevent the water from draining out, and if it were to leak at the top, there would only be a small amount of water available to leak. Draining the water from the heater is more damaging to it, then leaving it full of water.

Timburr is one of many Fighting-types running rampant in Little Cup. While it appears to be completely outclassed by Scraggy and Mienfoo, thanks to the former's higher defenses and the latter's higher offensive stats, one might wonder why anyone would ever use Timburr. Firstly, Timburr boasts a high Attack stat and has excellent moves to back it up, such as Drain Punch and Mach Punch. Secondly, Timburr is bulky; with a high base HP stat and Eviolite, Timburr has little problems switching into many of Little Cup's top-tier threats. Unfortunately, Timburr has a very low Speed stat, which means that it's rather easy to revenge kill. Don't let this fault discourage you from using this bulky monster, though, as it will prove to be an excellent member of your team if provided with the correct support.
This is Timburr's best and most popular set. Bulk Up boosts Timburr's already high Attack stat to turn it into an offensive juggernaut, and at the same time lets Timburr take physical attacks exceptionally well. Drain Punch further increases Timburr's longevity by restoring its health, and also hits relatively hard. Mach Punch somewhat compensates for Timburr's mediocre Speed stat and allows it to take down speedy foes such as Snover, Murkrow, and Scraggy. Payback rounds off the set by giving Timburr a powerful option against Misdreavus; it 2HKOes the ghost on a predicted switch.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Timburr has a pretty good movepool to work with. It can use a Substitute + Focus Punch set, but forgoing Drain Punch, one of Timburr's best moves, is foolish. An all-out attacking Life Orb or Choice Band set can let Timburr hit incredibly hard, but those sets are outclassed to an extent by Mienfoo due to its higher Speed stat and access to Hi Jump Kick. Brick Break is cool for breaking screens, but Timburr is better off using Drain Punch because of its useful recovery effect. Hammer Arm hits incredibly hard and lowers Timburr's Speed, which almost always ensures that Payback hits at 100 Base Power, but the low accuracy is discouraging. A status Orb set that makes use of Guts lets Timburr hit absurdly hard for a short period of time, but drastically reduces Timburr's longevity. Timburr can also act as a bulky weather supporter as it has access to Sunny Day and Rain Dance.
Checks and Counters
Timburr's best checks are faster threats that can take it out with ease. Abra can take out Timburr with a swift Psychic and fears nothing from Timburr as long as it is holding a Focus Sash. Murkrow might take a lot of damage from a boosted Mach Punch, but it can dispatch Timburr with Brave Bird. Similarly, Taillow and Doduo can easily remove Timburr with Brave Bird.
There are some Pokemon that wall Timburr with ease. Vullaby can Taunt Timburr and proceed to finish it off with either Air Slash or Brave Bird. Shelmet can boost alongside Timburr with Acid Armor, then set up Spikes. Slowpoke takes little damage from any of Timburr's moves and can take it out with STAB Psychic. Larvesta can switch into any of Timburr's STAB moves and deal massive amounts of damage with Flare Blitz. Koffing takes very little from any of Timburr's moves, has access to Clear Smog to ignore stat boosts, and can use Sludge Bomb to hit Timburr on its weaker Special Defense stat. Although uncommon, Zubat can Taunt Timburr, Super Fang it to lower its health, and then proceed to Brave Bird it into oblivion while taking little damage from any of Timburr's moves. Duskull, though even less common than Zubat, takes very little damage from most of Timburr's moves and can take it down with a series of Shadow Balls.

This article was submitted by Representatives Jim Lyons and Paul Adams.
Led by House Minority Leader Bradley H. Jones, Jr. (R- North Reading) and Representative Dan Winslow (R-Norfolk), Representatives Jim Lyons (R-Andover) and Paul Adams (R-Andover) joined their Republican colleagues in the Massachusetts House of Representatives in proposing the first comprehensive reform of the House Code of Ethical Conduct governing Representatives and legislative staff in more than 25 years. The proposed reforms will hold Members and legislative staff to a higher standard of ethical conduct than prescribed by statute, as well as work to restore the public's faith in state government.
"During my recent door-to-door campaign," said Rep. Jim Lyons of Andover, "I talked with voters about the importance of checks and balances to assure ethics in government. We must reform the single-party political 'culture of corruption' on Beacon Hill that has produced criminal convictions of three Speakers of the House and three state senators. It's time to demand," Lyons emphasized, "that public servants work for the common good, rather than for their own private enrichment. Those given the honor of carrying out public responsibilities must themselves be responsible to the public, to the voters, and to the taxpayers."
"The last three Speakers of the House were convicted for abusing their power and using their offices for personal benefit," said Representative Paul Adams of Andover, "This proposal would overhaul House ethics rules for the first time in 25 years and bring more accountability to the State House. Other states have already adopted similar standards, and the House Republican caucus is leading the charge here in Massachusetts."
Announced by the House Republican Caucus today, the formal proposal will be filed and debated at the next formal session of the House. House Republicans invite all Democrats to join the proposed reform as co-sponsors.
"The citizens of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts deserve a legislative body that maintains the highest ethical standards," said House Minority Leader Brad Jones. "It is our duty to strengthen and update the House Code of Ethical Conduct in order to ensure public trust, respect and confidence in state government."
"Even though the House Republicans are initiating new ethics reform for our Members, we strongly believe this should be a bipartisan effort to toughen and update the House Code of Ethical Conduct. A new code of conduct will assure that House Members and staff are held accountable to the people we serve," said Representative Winslow, lead author and co-sponsor of the proposed legislation.
Highlights of the Proposed Code of Ethical Conduct include:
- Procurement: Forbids Members and staff from contacting public entities regarding pending procurements before the award decision is made. Legislators have no constitutional role regarding procurement after voting on appropriation;
- Job Recommendations: Limits Members and staff to written recommendations for job seekers in the public sector, unless the employer initiates contact to check references;
- Snitch Rule: Creates ethical duty for Members and staff to report any unethical or criminal conduct by any other Members or staff.
- Lobbyists: Prohibits lobbyists from entering the House Chamber and the Members' Lounge, and limits lobbyist access to Members and staff unless displaying a publicly visible badge identifying them as lobbyists;
- Arrest or Indictment: Creates detailed disclosure requirements in the event a Member or staff is arrested, indicted or charged with criminal offenses, or named as a defendant in a domestic violence restraining order, and empowers the Ethics Committee to act immediately as appropriate;
- Private Life/Privacy: Preserves the right of Members and staff to have private lives, provided that private conduct does not become public or otherwise bring the House into public disrepute. Confirms that Members' and staff's families are beyond the scope of the legislative ethical code.

Across the Pond Brings British Invasion Sound to the Clark
For Immediate Release
June 28, 2013
WILLIAMSTOWN, MA—This year marks the fortieth anniversary of the British Invasion, and to celebrate the seismic cultural shift that took place in the mid-60s, Beatles tribute act Across the Pond will perform a free concert on the lawn at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute on Tuesday, July 9 at 6 pm. The concert is part of the Clark's summer concert series, which features live music every Tuesday night in July.
Across the Pond was formed in 2008 by Marc Clayton as a way acknowledge the Beatles' musical legacy without engaging in a full on-tribute act—what some performers call a "suit and wig" band. Instead, Clayton, along with bandmates Joe Tucker, Tim Wozniuk, and Jonathan Newell perform the band's music without trying to mimic every aspect of the Beatles' performance style. This allows Across the Pond—and their audience—to focus on the songs rather than on the accuracy of the band's costumes.
This focus on the music also allows the group to perform some songs that the Beatles never played live in concert. The Beatles stopped touring in 1966, which means that the majority of songs from their later career were never performed live. Across the Pond performs tracks from all eras of the band's career, including later material like "With a Little Help From My Friends," "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," and "Yellow Submarine."
Picnic suppers are welcome and barbeque fare will be available for purchase. The galleries will remain open until 6 pm. In the event of rain, the concert will be held in the auditorium.
About the Clark
Set amidst 140 acres in the Berkshires, the Clark is one of the few major art museums that also serves as a leading international center for research and scholarship. The Clark presents public and education programs and organizes groundbreaking exhibitions that advance new scholarship. The Clark's research and academic programs include an international fellowship program and conferences. Together with Williams College, the Clark sponsors one of the nation's leading master's programs in art history. The Clark receives support from the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open daily in July and August (open Tuesday through Sunday from September through June), 10 am to 5 pm. Admission is $15 June 1 through October 31; free November through May; and free year-round for Clark members, children 18 and younger, and students with valid ID. For more information, visit clarkart.edu or call 413 458 2303. The Clark's library is closed for renovation through September 3, 2013.

Circle of Life was designed by Christy Natsumi for Made By Survivors. http://christynatsumi.com.
According to Christy "This collaboration with Made by Survivors seemed the perfect opportunity for me to explore a fascination I've had with the idea of how we are all connected in this world. My intention was for the jewelry to be a reminder that an injustice to one human affects us all, but more importantly, that a positive change in an individual is a cause for everyone to celebrate". A new design by Christy is due to launch on the MBS site in Jan. 2014.

- I got this necklace as a gift from my husband, and all I can say is, he totally nailed it. It has a timeless quality and I love knowing that what I wear on my body empowers and uplifts the people that make it, rather than exploiting them. It's hard to find fine jewelry that is fair trade - I wear this almost every day (Posted on 9/12/13)
Kali is one of the artisans in our Mumbai Jewelry Program. She was born in Nepal and her parents sent her to a Buddhist boarding school to protect her from being trafficked by family members involved in forced prostitution. Despite their efforts, at 15 she was drugged, kidnapped from the school, and trafficked to a brothel in Mumbai, where her aunt was the madam. After 2 years of slavery, Kali was rescued by Rescue Foundation in Mumbai and sent to recover at their shelter home. There she joined our jewelry program and also pursued her high school education. She speaks five languages, is a karate champion, and is a leader among her peers at the shelter home. Kali says she forgives her parents, but no longer wants to live at home. Her dream is to go to college.

An Interview With Ashton's Robert Levin
Best known for creating Ashton, Robert Levin is a 30-year veteran of the cigar business.
David Savona
From the Print Edition:
Arnold Schwarzenegger, July/Aug 03
While he's best known for creating the Ashton brands, Robert Levin, president of Holt's Cigar Holdings, is a 30-year veteran of the cigar business with experience in retailing and wholesaling. After a humble start, sweeping the floor of his father's Philadelphia cigar store, he took over the family business in the 1970s, then created the original Ashton in the 1980s. His cigar grew up to be an industry giant, and in 1999 he trumped his earlier success with the addition of the Ashton Virgin Sun Grown line. This year, Levin hopes to add another million-unit brand to his portfolio -- La Aroma de Cuba. Recently, senior editor David Savona sat down with the 56-year-old Levin in Philadelphia for a discussion about the past, present and future of the cigar business.
David Savona: How did you get into the cigar business?
Robert Levin: My father bought Holt's Cigar Co. in 1957. It was a totally new business to him, and Holt's at the time was a small retail store in downtown Philadelphia.
Q: What was your father's business before Holt's?
A: He was a clothing manufacturer, and he closed down that business. Holt's was for sale; he had been smoking pipes and cigars his whole life, and he bought it.
Q: How old were you?
A: I was born in '46.
Q: So you were a kid.
A: Yeah, he would make me come in Saturdays and after school, and I would have to sweep up. There was not a walk-in humidor at the time. There were all these cabinets. In those days, the humidifiers were clay bricks. I would have to take the bricks out of all the cabinets every Saturday, take them down to the basement and soak them in big buckets of water.
Q: When did you get into the business full-time?
A: About 1972, '73, after college. My father always wanted me to come into the business; I always resisted, but he was having some health problems, and he wanted to go on vacation. Retail being as it is, it was tough to get away.
Q: What were your impressions of the business at the time?
A: It was a totally different business then. Premiums were not such a major factor. At that time, Philadelphia was actually a cigar-producing city. There were several factories, and mass-market cigars were still being sold in the cigar stores. There was no such thing as Walgreens and CVS.
Q: So Holt's sold mass-market cigars?
A: We sold everything. And we specialized in seconds. Garcia y Vega seconds, A&C seconds. We were cigar specialists. My dad would buy huge quantities from the factories. When I was still in school, the store had to move, and we moved into another store, and I think my father at the time was the first one to have a huge walk-in humidor, a store within a store with its own separate cash register.
Q: When was this?
A: Maybe the early 1960s.

I have purchased a box of Ashton Maduro 60 every month since they were available. Even during the difficult supply times.This cigar is the base cigar in my humidor and as long as it is available I will be a loyal and grateful customer.

The GORE-TEX® version of this mountain trail runner is also brimming with innovative technology: double-layered single shell mesh construction for optimal ventilation, lighter weight and fewer contact surfaces; 3D textile lining for extra cushioning, abrasion and improved temperature; clever asymmetric lacing garage solution; EVA Superlight wedge with Kevlar protective covering; Stone Shield insert to prevent penetration of sharp stones; cushioning Strobel design and the gripex™ Iguana sole – a new improved version of the tried and tested Reptilia sole. In addition, technologies such as Base Fit®, Foot Mapping, Memo Foam, Speed Lace System, Rolling Concept®, Hybrid Shell, asymmetrical lacing, PU Shock Absorber and a GORE-TEX® Extended Comfort Footwear Membrane are all basic features of the React GTX®.
Shoes must be protected from water, wet conditions and dirt. Since wet conditions and dirt affect leather's natural properties, such as temperature control and comfort, shoe care is a very important area.
- Use a brush to remove any dirt, or brush the shoe under running water to remove persistent soiling
- Leather cleaning products are not recommended since the soap damages the waterproofing treatment
- After cleaning the shoes, rub in the appropriate wax or silicone-based care products or polish them using a soft brush
- Dry leather needs nutrients in the form of wax (no grease or oil). Apply a very thin layer and then work into the leather
- The application of wax makes nubuk or velours leather appear darker and smoother. Liquid care products maintain the leather's original appearance for longer, but provide fewer nutrients
- The best way to clean the lining (textile, GORE-TEX® and leather) is using lots of cold water and a sponge. The lining retains high quantities of salt from perspiration. In the long term, these can have a damaging effect on textiles and leather lining materials.

Saginaw >Food & Dining > Tony's Original Restaurants
1029 Gratiot Ave, Saginaw, MI | Directions 4860243.414845 -83.976610
If you have to ask... – OK, for anyone who doesn't know, Tony's is just about the greatest restaurant in Saginaw. Hearty portions, good value, and solid, homestyle food make it a preferred restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Go. Get the steak and cheese with pizza cheese and mushrooms. Or the pizza. Or the nachos. Or the chicken basket. Add in their fries, big and greasy (in a good way; you're ordering fries after all). If you think you can do it, throw down on their boat-sized banana split afterward. DISCLAIMER: I am the only person I've ever seen or heard of who finished a whole split after a full meal. Don't try it unless you're truly prepared. Let me tell you how much people like the food: when I lived in Ann Arbor, people I worked with would place orders for me to bring back when I came home.

Austin >Lodging > Homewood Suites Austin Northwest
10925 Stonelake Blvd, Austin, TX | Directions 7875930.398410 -97.734060
Heaping of Southwestern charm, anyone? – The staff at this hotel was very courteous and accomodating during our one night stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Loved the colorful and eclectic southwestern decor - a welcome change from the drabby, conventional style found in most hotels. The only negative thing I can come up with is they were skimpy on the free bathroom toiletries; won't find any shampoo or shower caps here.

After a night of mostly forgettable basketball on both sides, the winning play was executed to perfection.
Magic shooting guard J.J. Redick had the ball on the right side with the team leading 98-97 and about 40 seconds remaining. When Cleveland's defense closed and then a second defender took a step toward Redick, Redick hit a cutting Nik Vucevic with a perfect bounce-pass for a lay-up with 32.3 seconds left.
The ol' Nik and roll.
The Magic, who finished with 18 turnovers, but only two in the second half, continued to make plays.
On the often tricky out of bounds play, another Dukie, Josh McRoberts, got the ball into Redick.
The Cavs had no choice but to foul. J.J., who converted both attempts with 21.9 seconds left. Redick made eight consecutive free throws in the last 22 seconds as the Cavs desperately tried to work the clock, hoping the Magic would miss a free throw down the stretch
Redick was not the guy to foul, but he zig-zagged his way to find the ball every time against the Cavs.
"I tell you what, it's hard with that guy," Cavs coach Byron Scott said of Redick, who finished with 18 points. "He moves so well without the ball. That's just a terrific job, and they do a terrific job of setting screens for him."
The Cavs even tried to distract Redick while he was on the line – to no avail.
"I tried to talk to him and say everything …but he was just knocking shots down. I was telling him, 'Can you miss?" I was playing, but I was serious: Like miss a shot, please. But he is a great shooter and he was able to knock down shots for his team."
I blogged this last week, but this is more evidence why the Magic need to re-sign Redick. He's a difference-maker, and cool in the clutch.
Arron Afflalo might be the starter at the 2 and a better defender, but you can argue that Redick makes just as large an impact in a different way.
Asked what felt better, making the eight free throws or making the pass, Redick said, with a smile, "The bounce pass."
Once known primarily as a shooter, Redick now can "see" the entire game. Some players never get to this point. He has to be "a student of the game" because he cannot rely solely on his athletic ability.
What Redick says will be overlooked on The Play is Big Baby Davis moving out of the lane, clearing space for Vucevic to avoid "congestion" in the paint.
"You're always learning. It's doing your job. Seeing and understanding the game, the nuances. The more I'm in the NBA, the more I love the NBA," Redick told me.
"I've become a full-fledged student of the game."Brian Schmitz is the Magic Insider for the Orlando Sentinel. You can reach him at email@example.com. And you can follow him on Twitter at http://twitter.com/@magicinsider.

In the most generous terms, the Tennessee Democratic Party is a fighter on the mat, just beginning to see straight after a near-knockout punch. If the arena stops spinning, they can start thinking about standing up again.
After some 150 years as the state's dominant political party, Democrats have become a mostly marginalized minority in state politics. While party officials describe the fall as having occurred slowly over the past decade, a critical moment came in 2008. Despite Barack Obama's historic national victory, his 15-point loss to John McCain in Tennessee bled down the ballot. Republicans, who had already seized control of the state Senate, gained four seats in the House, making Democrats a minority in both chambers of the state legislature for the first time since Reconstruction.
The trend continued in the red tide, election-night drubbing of 2010 which privileged Republicans with near supermajorities in both houses of the legislature. Democrats lost the race for governor, 14 seats in the state House and two U.S. congressional races. Predictably, Republicans flexed their newfound muscle, using the redistricting pen to further punish their opponents, just as Democrats had done to them many times before. Nowadays the new minority is hoping only to "hold the line" in the legislature and stop what has been a cataclysmic slide.
Adjusting for the political cannibalism and retirement-spree forced by the redrawn state map, Democratic Party Chairman Chip Forrester said "the line" is now somewhere around 24 seats in the House and eight in the Senate, making Tennessee Democrats a minority almost as diminutive as, say, Northeastern Republicans. For example, the Republican minority in Massachusetts makes up 18 percent of the state's legislature. If Democrats hold the line Forrester describes, they'll make up just 24 percent of Tennessee's.
The hole is deep, but Forrester said Democrats have a new plan they've branded the New Path Forward. It's a strategic plan, produced with the help of the Ohio-based consulting firm summoned last year to aid a political party on life support. As summarized by Forrester, it sounds like a new political business model. His presentation, replete with the type of jargon that could only come from a political strategy team, includes talk of financial stakeholders, staying on message, metrics-based campaign systems and building the party's bench.
"We've been doing campaigns this certain way for 10 to 15 years," Forrester said. "If we run the campaigns in 2012 in the same way that we've been running them and expect a different outcome, that's kind of the traditional definition of insanity."
Hamilton County Democratic Party Chairman Paul Smith summed up the problem: "In the past, we have underestimated the issue of getting our message out, which has allowed the opposition to frame our stances with inaccurate terminology."
How did this political disaster come about? Vanderbilt political science professor and department chair John Geer believes Democrats can pin their current woes on three primary factors. The first is obvious, given the political landscape of the state.
"One, you do have a state that has become increasingly conservative and therefore it's more fertile ground for the Republicans than the Democrats," he said. "That's just true."
Given that reality, the second follows naturally. Tennessee Democrats suffer from "the logic of the electoral college," Geer said. Despite a recent headline on the Nashville Tennessean's front page that declared Obama had "closed the gap" with Mitt Romney in the state—citing one portion of a new Vanderbilt poll in a way that Geer called misleading—the presidential race in Tennessee is not expected to be much of a race at all, with little chance of adding delegates to the Obama cause. As a result, the Obama campaign and the national Democratic Party have spent little time or money in the state, focusing instead on nearby "battleground" states like North Carolina and Virginia.

In "Inventing Abstraction, 1910-1925: How a Radical Idea Changed Modern Art," a splendid historical survey at the Museum of Modern Art, the most beautiful work, for me, is "Vertical-Horizontal Composition" (1916), a small, framed wool needlepoint tapestry by Sophie Taeuber-Arp. Rectangles and squares in black, white, red, blue, gray, and two browns, arranged on an irregular grid, generate a slightly dissonant, gently jazzy visual harmony that is pleasantly at odds with the tapestry's matter-of-fact, nubbly texture. The work bespeaks a subtle eye, a sober mind, and an ardent heart. If you could make something like that, you would drop everything else and do it. You wouldn't need any great reason. I was mildly shocked by how unshocking Taeuber-Arp's work is, amid rooms of strenuous sensations from the epoch of abstract art's big bang. But, in a show that raises the question "Why?" at every turn, I kept coming back to it.
What possessed a generation of young European artists, and a few Americans, to suddenly suppress recognizable imagery in pictures and sculptures? Unthinkable at one moment, the strategy became practically compulsory in the next. Many of the artists had answers—or, at least, they cooked them up. The trailblazing Wassily Kandinsky and the bulletproof masters of abstraction, Piet Mondrian and Kazimir Malevich, doubled, tortuously, as theorists. They initiated what would become a common feature of determinedly innovative art culture to this day: the simpler the art, the more elaborate the rationale. That's easily understood. We need stories. When they are banished within art, they re-form around and about it. But most interesting to me are the early abstract artists' personal motives.
The Swiss Taeuber-Arp and her husband, Hans Arp, from Alsace, were Dadaists in Zurich during the First World War. They seem to have been excited by the prospect of a passably pure, toughly modest aestheticism that jettisoned the traditions of a Europe gone mad with slaughter. Arp was making sprightly geometric and free-form collages and reliefs, often composed by games of chance—for example, shapes in colored paper dropped onto sheets of white paper and glued down more or less where they fell. The couple took comfort and delight in carefully irrational, morning-fresh ways of creating. Abstraction, for them, was a haven and a test of character. Little else in the show makes such humanly grounded sense, though there's no gainsaying the appeal of the abundant flavors of an international aesthetic cuisine: French color, Italian locomotion, Russian tectonics, Dutch severity, American pep. There are more than three hundred paintings, drawings, prints, books, photographs, films, and music and voice recordings, but they barely summarize the phenomenon's fantastic variety.
The invention and contrariety of that brainstorming age—in a rewarding introduction to the catalogue, the show's curator, Leah Dickerman, cites "cars, photography, relativity, and the death of god"—conferred a special prestige on creators, in all of the arts, who dramatized the effects of change. Music led the way, as is often the case when cultural foundations shift; the composer David Lang, one of twenty-five essayists in the catalogue, tracks the abandonment of "functional harmony" from Wagner to Debussy and then, with a lurch, to the atonal Arnold Schoenberg. Analogies to music enabled painters to escape from the logical stylistic developments in their field—at the time, mainly Cubism, which Picasso and Braque derived from suggestions in the work of Cézanne. An ecstatic mess of a painting by Kandinsky, "Impression III (Concert)" (1911), registers his response to a Schoenberg concert, with sketchy hints of audience members assaulted by shapeless floods of black and yellow. There is something forced, a hysteria of the will, about the work, as there is about the drive of the Italian Futurists to represent motion, which stumbles on the fact that paintings hold dead still. But the intensity of ambition of the Futurists and of Kandinsky batters misgivings.
The show opens with a surprise to me: Picasso, as a closet inceptor of abstraction. He painted "Woman with Mandolin," and a few similar pictures, in the summer of 1910. It is a typically early-Cubist, dun-colored congeries of arrowing lines and shaded planes, nudging in and out of shallow pictorial depth. But it lacks any visible subject matter: no discernible woman, nary a mandolin. It is, in a word, abstract. So, it seems from Picasso's own testimony, were at least some of his later Cubist works, before he added what he called "attributes"—a bottle, a mustache—to make them still-lifes or portraits. This fleeting episode in his career is obscure, because he would never take credit for conceiving non-figurative art, an idea that exasperated him.
Picasso's arguments against abstraction still carry weight. He reasoned that there can be no such thing as non-figuration. "All things appear to us in the form of figures," he said. "A person, an object, a circle are all figures; they act upon us more or less intensely." (One early term for abstraction, "non-objective," is especially fallacious in this light—as if any function of the human brain, let alone a work of art, could evade subjectivity.) Picasso also said that, without reference to things we experience as real, art sacrifices its one indispensable quality: drama. Such was the challenge for artists who embraced the racy new looks: how to make the manipulation of circles, say, or of fugitive marks seem to matter. A few—certainly Kandinsky, by fits and starts; Malevich, for a torrid spell; and Mondrian, with steadily growing command—faced down the Spanish basilisk. They did it by activating a figure outside the work: the viewer.
The MOMA show, though exquisitely selective, is unconcerned with rankings of quality. It aims to inform. Mere coincidence in time puts grandly scaled but clumsy painterly cadenzas by the Czech František Kupka, the Frenchman Francis Picabia, and the American Morgan Russell on an undeserved equal footing with Kandinsky. Pretty-good color compositions by Robert Delaunay—which the dashing poet-propagandist Guillaume Apollinaire fancifully termed "Orphism," after the mythic bard—are no match for Fernand Léger's joyously tumbling forms in red, white, and blue. A wonderful sequence of Mondrians—from a 1912 picture of semi-abstracted trees to the dawn, in the early twenties, of his mature manner of taut horizontal and vertical black bands, and of blocks of primary colors, all keyed to a physical sense of gravity—far outshines the designy efforts of Theo van Doesburg and his colleagues in Dutch Neo-Plasticism.

Special Offer
Cosmo has come up with a fat-torching plan that really will subtract up to 5 pounds from your bod in seven days without starvation, bizarre supplements, or cutting out entire food groups. How? It's all about small sacrifices combined with specific techniques. And rather than giving you a one-size-fits-all regimen, we figure you're more likely to stick with the plan if you pick the eating and exercise strategies that fit your lifestyle.
So choose at least four of the nutritionist- and fitness expert-backed tips that follow, and vow to work them into your schedule for seven days straight. If you feel ambitious, tack on a few more. The more you pick, the more weight you'll lose. If you start now, by this time next week, you'll look and feel way lighter.
A sports or energy drink, fruit smoothie, or light beer each serving contains about 100 calories. Yet these beverages don't satisfy you the way 100 calories of food does, so they're a waste. Other liquids may be high in sodium and carbohydrates, which trick your body into retaining water, puffing you out.
Water, on the other hand, has zero calories and carbs and little to no sodium, making it the perfect slim-down drink. And strangely, it actually helps flush out excess water weight as well as jump-starts your metabolism. If it's just too boring, add lemon wedges or mint leaves.

Phoenix >Food & Dining > Honey Bear BBQ
2824 N Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ | Directions 8500433.479675 -112.073983
Mon. - Sun. 10am - 9pm
Neighborhoods: Emcamtp
Beware - check your order before leaving – Each time we have ordered carryout from Honey Bears BBQ, they have shorted the order. Good BBQ but beware. One time they left out the 1/2 chicken dinner. The most recent visit we ordered two whole rib dinners but discovered they gave us combinations when we got home. It's not easy to check an order since you have to open the boxes and if you have a large order, as we often do, it can be messy. But shame on us---they won't get away with it next time. Some of their order-takers are pleasant; others not so nice and thus the two-star rating.
Great BBQ Chicken. – Last summer while visiting my boyfriend took me here for lunch. Since we have moved here it is all we crave. Living in Glendale we never mind the drive. The chicken BBQ is awesome. Their BBQ sauce is a perfect combo of sweet and hot, just how I like it. Everytime we go it is busy but they always have an open booth and ordering never really takes that long. It worth it
Very disappointed – A freind of mine wanted to introduce me to what he said was some of the best Q in town. My friend ordered a beef brisket sandwhich which he enjoyed, but looked like an Arby's sandwhich. I ordered a hot link sandwhich, which was the worst tasing hotlinks I have ever had. The links tasted like boiled oscar meyers minus any flavor. The service and ambience were okay. I will not return, unless management or ownership changes.
Best barbaque in the valley! – Honey Bears is the best! Everything here is fantastic, the cole slaw, the beans, the ribs and last but not least the sauce! The sauce is incredible! I always bring extra home but for some reason it's never as good as the real deal. These guys have barbaque down!
Memphis-style 'cue puts the South in your mouth. – In Short
The name alludes to the special ingredient used in the sauce, which is based on a recipe borrowed from the owner's family in Jackson, Tennessee. Despite the competition, Honey Bears is still a local favorite for its barbecued chicken, ribs, beef, pulled pork sandwiches and hot links. Pair any meal with potato salad, coleslaw, corn on the cob and sausage-studded "cowbro" beans, and finish off with the doughy peach cobbler.
Best Sauce in Town! – I've been eating at Honey Bear's since they started on E. Washington St. years ago and have also visited their Central and Thomas location. Their slaw is very good and their beans are to die for. Everything I have eaten there has always been top notch, especially the hot links. Their sauce is unlike any other I have ever tasted and I swear, I could DRINK the stuff! It's that good. 2 for 1 bottles of beer at happy hour too. I hope you nay-sayers stay away, 'cause that means more for the rest of us with taste!
Not Memphis – I agree. I've been to the best of Memphis (Corky's & Rendevous) and Honey Bears is not even close.
50 year old food – They advertise a 50 year old family recipe. Sometimes, as in this case, older is not better. This is bland bbq, certainly not as good as a half dozen other places in this town. BBQ has grown up in recent years, better meats, spicier, and there are certainly other options out there.

I'm starting the challenge tomorrow 3/25. I noticed the fruit listed on the food list is pretty small and was wondering why watermelon and cantaloupe aren't allowed
Hi Jill;,
Iam starting my challenge tomorrow the 25th as well, this is my 2nd. watermnelon and caqntaloupre arent on the list because they contain too much sugar. good luck
Where did you see that they have too much sugar? In my BFL book, melon is on the list. Canteloupes and watermelons are melons. They don't specifically rule out any fruits either as far as I know...I was wondering about pineapple.
I've been wondering the same thing, as I am eating a pear right now!
it's on the food list so you can eat them :)
Melon IS on the list here on the site, I just checked. According to the book pretty much every type of fruit is acceptable. You can research glycemic indexes and glycemic loads online to see how different fruits impact your body. If you're worried about sugar intake, have a smaller portion (e.g. a couple orange sections on a salad, or 1/2 banana in a smoothie). I ate a LOT of berries and pineapple on my Challenge, berries being low in sugar but high in nutrients and antioxidants, and pineapple because it contains the enzyme Bromelain which is anti-inflammatory, immune boosting, anti-coagulant, and lots of other good things. If you're worried about justifying something, do some homework online, there are a lot of good resources out there.

Transplant finds Connecticut has much to be proud of
This past year, since moving to New England, I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to work very closely in many Connecticut towns through the Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge. The Challenge directly engages communities to participate in residential energy reduction by acting as a resource to educate and inform local residents.
Being a transplant from Arizona, I heard a lot about the deficit of young professionals in Connecticut and how the state is making a great effort to attract and retain this community. I can now say that after working with Neighbor to Neighbor, quantity may be a concern, but quality is certainly not.

- Anderson Team | Love + Sex | Wed, Feb 13, 2013 2:14 PM EST | CommentsMedia personality and lifestyle expert Terri Trespicio shares her creative ideas for a fun date night on a budget for Valentine's Day!
Terri writes:
It would be incredibly easy for me to tell you all the ways to blow your cash on Valentine's Day -- because there's no shortage of them. Who wouldn't love a decadent meal, a $75 bottle of wine, French macaroons flown in from Paris this morning? Though, I'll admit, other V-day standbys like couples massages always struck me as creepy, and I think I'll pass on the gold-dipped roses.
You can have fun on Valentine's Day without spending hundreds! You don't even need a boyfriend. Here's my list of things to do on the cheap whether you're hanging with a partner, a gaggle of friends, or going solo.

SANTA CLARA It's become a Wednesday ritual in the NFL head coaches shoveling praise on another's team a few days before their game.
Rams coach Jeff Fisher, however, broke new ground this week when he continually cited San Francisco's offense and not its defense, which to this point has been the more renown, more discussed and certainly more feared unit.
"There's very few weaknesses on the football team, especially on the offensive side," said Fisher, a former defensive coordinator. "There's not mistakes. That's the thing about (coach Jim Harbaugh's) teams. They just don't make mistakes."
The 49ers' offense has produced more yawns than yards in recent years, and it hasn't finished any higher than No. 23 overall in the past eight seasons. But Fisher isn't the only one who's noticed the 2012 version this week.
The publication Pro Football Weekly put three 49ers on its Midseason All-Pro Team. Two were offensive linemen, Mike Iupati and Anthony Davis. The third was punter Andy Lee.
ESPN's version had one defensive player, Patrick Willis, to go with Davis and Iupati. Sports Illustrated's picks were Davis, Lee and running back Frank Gore.
Fisher, who is in his first season as St. Louis' coach, noted every NFC West team has a good defense. The difference among the group, he said, is that the 49ers also have a solid offense. It ranks 13th overall. St. Louis' is next at No. 28, followed by Seattle (No. 29) and Arizona (No. 31).
"The remaining three of us are quite a ways behind" on offense, Fisher said.
Fisher and linebacker James Laurinaitis, who leads the Rams in tackles with 74, zeroed in on the 49ers' running attack, which is averaging 168.6 yards a game, the best in the league.
Laurinaitis said most teams try to get their explosive, 20-yards-and-more plays from their passing game. The 49ers are different.
"Whenever they're winning games they have explosive runs over 20 yards," Laurinaitis said. "And they're going to pound it, pound it and pound it. And they hope they can get their big shot in the running game.
"That's why they can do a bunch of different stuff, because they have the scheme, the personnel and the mindset that, 'Hey, it doesn't matter how many times you think you've stuffed us for three, four or five yards. We're going to keep coming back to that because eventually we're going to knock off a 20-plus (yard) something,' " he said.
The 49ers are tied for second with Buffalo with 10 running plays of 20 or more yards. The Vikings lead the league with 14.
Said Fisher: "I can't remember having to prepare for an offense that was so well-coached and so diversified in the run game and so talented. Then you add the multiplicity in the passing game and (Alex Smith's) decision-making ability, it's no surprise to me that they're able to accomplish what they accomplished last year and what's ahead of them this year."
Harbaugh, meanwhile, reacts to praise like it's poison, and he didn't want to hear about any of the nice things the Rams were saying about his team.
"We'd rather probably just try to kick them in the shins when people are saying things like that," he said.

My husband and I are buying a house today.
So I sought out two experts — one owns a scrap yard in Cicero — to advise me about the timing of our purchase. Has the economy hit bottom?
First, I drove to United Scrap Metal to interview Marsha Serlin, chief executive and founder of the scrap yard. After a divorce, she started the business with $200 and a rented Budget truck in 1978. She recorded more than $250 million in revenue last year.
Then I called William Strauss. Strauss is a senior economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, which processes its own special scrap in the basement: Millions of dollars in worn-out cash. Strauss has worked at the Fed for more than 30 years.
Serlin supplied anecdotes; Strauss shared PowerPoint slides. But they told the same story.
United Scrap's business model is simple. Serlin buys scrap metal. She shears, shreds or chops it into a clean and reusable form, and resells it at a higher price than she paid for it.
The scrap yard accepts old faucets, refrigerators and such — but manufacturing drives her business. She told me to think about the making of a fork. What happens to the metal that was once in between the prongs? It ends up in a scrap yard like Serlin's.
So if the fork production line isn't operating, Serlin has nothing to pick up and process. At the same time, at the depths of the recession, would-be buyers were canceling orders. Her chief operating officer, Larry Snyder, said he couldn't sell copper at any price — and the prices of metals he could sell were dropping by more than half.
"It was for us a very traumatic time," Serlin said. "We tried to stay even with our inventory. We didn't try to hold it for 60 days (and) then sell it. We sold on a daily basis, all day. But we could sell it only for half the price. We had no margin. We had a loss. But '09 picked up ... and we were back to profitability by the beginning of '09. The markets didn't change much, but we had a better handle on it."
Serlin said her company "began buying (scrap) at the right price" and "learned to do more with less." They cut overtime and increased automation, said her son, Brad, United Scrap's president.
Their volumes returned to normal in 2010 and without a doubt, Snyder said, the automotive industry drove their recovery.
Toyota went from needing "no aluminum whatsoever to whatever we could deliver," Snyder said. "They wanted everything we had for months."
Two industries soon followed: commercial construction and telecommunications infrastructure, such as new cell towers and fiber-optic cable lines. Recently, they've seen a pickup in the medical imaging and airport equipment sectors.
Prices have stabilized after years of volatility, and demand has steadied, Snyder and Brad Serlin said.
They still feel weakness, though. Brad Serlin said United Scrap's "portion of the pie is growing" but the pie itself is shrinking.
For instance, Rexam, which makes beverage cans, is moving an Elk Grove Village production line to Ohio at the end of the month for logistical reasons. That will result in 25 positions being cut, although some workers will be moved to other jobs, said a spokesman for Rexam, Greg Brooke.
United Scrap will feel the ripple effect, as giant haystacks of crushed Monster Beverage cans will no longer be processed and resold from its yard.
And when Serlin opened her second location, in Philadelphia in November, she was able to obtain more than 125 pieces of heavy equipment — from forklifts to Bobcats, cranes and trucks — in less than three months.
"That's what really surprised us," Brad Serlin said.
And not in a good way.

Sheriff: Red Legacy Recovery program has made a difference at jail
By Nathan Baker
A new alcohol and drug recovery program being tested in the Carter County Jail was unveiled Thursday morning in the County Courthouse.
Carter County Sheriff Chris Mathes, Sullivan County legislator Tony Shipley and Red Legacy Recovery co-founders Angelee Murray and Layla Wright touted the benefits of the new program aimed at women incarcerated in the Carter County Jail.
Through the Red Legacy program, started in October, Murray and Wright hold classes in the jail every other Monday to teach jailed women life skills to help them become productive members of society.
"We do everything from self-confidence and self-esteem building to public speaking, money management, parenting skills and classes, goal setting, vision casting and creative writing and journaling," Murray said of the four-hour classes. "One of the biggest things we've seen from the relationships we're creating in the jail is that when these women are released they're contacting us to let us know how they're doing or to ask for advice."
To help maintain the relationships formed behind the walls of the jail after inmates are released, the fledgling program recently added public workshops open to women on the outside.

New Product From: 2/11/2009 Modern Machine Shop The M5414 five-axis programmable head attachment installs in virtually any three-axis CNC milling center to provide simultaneous five-axis machining capability. The attachment is suited for applications in the mold, aerospace, specialty automotive and energy industries as well as for instrument manufacturers that require five-axis simultaneous and positioning motion.
The attachment features an upgraded spindle with high-precision bearings, which are designed to increase rigidity and deliver a smooth surface finish. Its upgraded worm gears offer improved accuracy over previous models. The attachment includes an Inpro spindle seal that virtually eliminates potential spindle contamination.
Designed to accommodate complex machining including full five-axis profiling, contouring, slots and holes, the attachment's sturdy holding fixture enables an installation time of less than 30 minutes, the company says. The attachment's construction uses A2 tool steel in the drive block and main bevel gears and 17-4 stainless steel in the spindle and worm gear housing. High speed options are achieved through either a mechanical speeder or an innovative pneumatic spindle that does not lose torque or rpm under load and uses clean, oil-free compressed air that eliminates oil drip from the spindle. High speed spindle options offer 20,000- to 50,000-rpm capabilities.
The attachment provides access to virtually all points within the hemisphere of the machine's work envelope and is available with a postprocessor that is designed to work with most five-axis-capable CAM software products and five-axis-capable CNCs, the company says.

Rudnevs secures Latvia win
Aleksejs Visnjakovs' first-half strike and Artjoms Rudnevs' late goal earned Latvia a win over Malta in their Euro 2012 qualifier at the Skonto Stadions in Riga.
Neither side could qualify from Group F before kick-off, and with only pride to play for the home side started to dominate early and went on to pick up their third win of the campaign to move to 11 points, 10 above bottom side Malta.
Visnjakovs opened the scoring in the 33rd minute before Rudnevs sealed the win in the 84th minute to leave Malta without a single win in the qualifying stages.
Latvia started to take control early when Visnjakovs' 18-yard strike missed the right post and Aleksandrs Cauna's shot from inside the area was blocked by Malta defender Steve Borg in the opening 15 minutes.
Visnjakovs then forced a save from Andrew Hogg after half an hour before he broke the deadlock two minutes later with a shot from the centre of the penalty area.
The midfielder found the back of the net when he got on the end of a Maris Verpakovskis cross to give the home side a well-deserved lead.
In the second half Latvia goalkeeper Andris Vanins was forced into making two good saves within 30 seconds.
Gareth Sciberras drilled a right-footed shot from the centre of the area only for Vanins to make a clearance, before Clayton Failla forced the goalkeeper to parry his shot seconds later.
At the other end, Latvian striker Rudnevs' 25-yard shot flew past the left post in the 65th minute before he sealed the win six minutes before the final whistle with a shot from close range after Visnjakovs delivered a good free-kick into the area.

Cassidian Optronics modernizes sighting systems of Colombian Navy submarines
Oberkochen/Germany, 15 March 2013
- Search periscope with IR sensors enhances submarines' capabilities
- Cassidian Optronics proves position as a major player in the refit and upgrade market
Cassidian Optronics improves the mission effectiveness of the 209 class submarines of the Colombian Navy by installing state-of-the-art sighting systems. After the already ordered refurbishment of an attack periscope, the Colombian Navy has now ordered a SERO 250 search periscope from Cassidian Optronics for a 209 Class submarine. Cassidian Optronics is the well-known producer of optronic mast systems and periscopes for submarines, formerly known as Carl Zeiss Optronics.
This contract is the first in a series of contracts aimed at the final replacement of all current optical systems on board the existing Class 209 submarines of the Colombian Navy. These submarines were commissioned in 1975 and are now in an overhaul and upgrade phase. The current programme is under contract to the German shipbuilding company HDW in Kiel. Cassidian Optronics' SERO 250 was chosen because it is a modern and cost effective plug-in solution replacing older periscopes without having to make major modifications to the boat.
One of the main criteria for a periscope upgrade in submarines is the increase in capabilities. The SERO 250 periscope is equipped with state-of-the-art sensors. These include a new generation infrared sensor, offering the crew a night vision capability. It was specifically designed for the submarine refit market to replace legacy systems with minimal platform adaptation. In the integration process local partners in Columbia will be involved.
Previously, Cassidian Optronics won different programmes within the retrofit market, including the upgrade programme of the Turkish Navy's AY-Class submarines. (More information about Cassidian Optronics maritime solutions under http://www.cassidian.com/en_US/web/guest/optronics-maritime-solutions).
Employing about 800 staff at the German locations of Oberkochen and Wetzlar, and at Irene in South Africa, Cassidian Optronics GmbH develops and manufactures optical and optronic products which are used in military ground, sea and air systems as well as in border and security technologies, but also in non-military high-tech systems and in the aerospace sector. Cassidian Optronics combines the optical and optronic precision technology from Carl Zeiss Optronics with Cassidian's know-how as a global market leader in defence and security technology.
About CASSIDIAN
Cassidian, the defence division of EADS, is a worldwide leader in defence and security solutions. The company delivers advanced defence systems along the whole action chain from sensors through command & control systems to combat aircraft and unmanned air systems. In the area of security, Cassidian provides customers worldwide with border surveillance systems, cyber security solutions and secure communications. In 2012, Cassidian – with around 23,000 employees – achieved revenues of € 5.7 billion.
