Jonathan Salem Baskin, Contributor
I help businesses innovate, respect privacy, and build reputations.
After a story in the New York Times last week reported a failed attempt to drive a Tesla electric car from New York to Boston, the company's founder and CEO Elon Musk yesterday took to social media and TV to claim 1) the results were due to user error, and 2) the newspaper "set up" the company in order to embarrass it.
My advice to Musk and Tesla? Keep your opinions, no matter how valid you believe them to be, to yourself.
Reporters are individuals, not automatons that can be programmed, and as such they give first-hand accounts of their experiences when they review products or services. Musk's accusation is that his company told the reporter to do some very specific and somewhat limiting things in order to be able to complete the drive, and that the test failure was due to his unwillingness to follow those directions to the letter (confirm full charge before starting, take no detours, drive a so-and-so speed).
Only that's not how test drives work in the car business. I know this from my days working at Nissan. The point of test drives is to put vehicles in weird, unconventional settings (like salt flats, or roads winding around exotic mountains) so reporters who know something about cars can learn something about your products. You certainly don't want to set yourself up for failure, so maybe 4-cylinder econobox tests aren't often scheduled on said mountains, but otherwise it's up to the driver to decide what's fair.
Just like in the real world.
If success for the Tesla Model S relied on so many variables being controlled, the very premise of the drive was questionable. Stuff has to succeed despite exceptions or the proclivities of personal use; that's why Walt Mossberg at the Wall Street Journal gets to test the battery life of consumer electronics devices with his own approach (I think he runs a bunch of programs and media players simultaneously, in deference to no real-world usage pattern or company recommendation). It doesn't sound like the Times reporter did anything horribly outside a purview that could be considered "normal use" anyway.
But the bigger point is still so what if he did? Again, if a successful test was so tenuous, it should not have been encouraged, or at least the expectations for it should have been properly set. It wouldn't have been hard to do, and think of how different the review would have turned out (the guy liked the car when it was moving).
Also, by attacking not only the review but the reporter and his employer, Musk is violating just about every principle in the communications playbook. I know it's fashionable to attack the facts and morals of your opponents in politics or science, but it tends to destroy truth, not enable its discovery. To suggest that the Times had a conscious intent to discredit Tesla is, well, silly, unless Musk's hope is that it'll obviate the negative effects of the review (the company's stock is down). It won't work. Worse, he's indirectly challenging the credibility of any and every review that doesn't please him. Good luck promoting the car going forward.
The thing is, he doesn't get to judge. We do. By protesting too much, the CEO is daring us to wonder if there's more to the story.
Imagine if Musk had gone on a true charm offensive and responded to the review with an apology (for setting an unreasonable performance target) and thanking the reporter for testing it. He could have skipped challenging the one-off failure, and talked about past and future successes, using it as a springboard for promoting the immense accomplishments the company has made, pointing out its many strengths, and asking the public to get more involved in learning about recharging stations, battery technology, or whatever. He could have announced more tests in more markets, with goals properly established, and exuded a confidence of conviction and merit…instead of coming across like a defensive conspiracist. It would have gotten the media to focus on the car, not him, which is publicity that might actually do Tesla some good.
There's an old saying that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. The communications counsel I would have given Mr. Musk after he read the Times review would have been to come out nice or keep quiet.
UPDATE 02.13.13: The Atlantic Wire shares my POV, it seems. Tesla could learn a lot from the reporter's experience instead of attacking him. I think we're learning a lot about the brand, in any event.
UPDATE 02.14.13: John Broder at the New York Times refutes Musk's allegations and begs the question…again…what benefit does any of this have for Tesla's brand?
Agreed with the NYT… If I can't jump in the car on a whim and tool around aimlessly on a sunday afternoon, the car is a failure… Sorry Elon, but why would anyone go through a 10point system checklist before heading out on a roadtrip when the only thing they have to do now is stock up on gas and drinks???
National Geographic – Tesla Model S : youtu.be/1OiG8uB6Cic
I woudn't say the tolerances are "tight" for having an EV. Right now, SPECIFICALLY for doing a long road trip in an EV, the tolerances ARE tight. You don't have a lot of fast charge stations all over the place.
But my car never ever goes on road trips. And Tesla has BARELY begun to roll out its SuperCharger network.
@terrywatts: He wasn't tooling "around aimlessly on a Sunday afternoon"… he was on a road trip testing the extreme range functionality of the car.
He should have thus filled up completely before driving off.
Are you seriously rationalizing what the New York Times did to this company? That's quite foul. The business journalists defending the scathing journalist who is a oil industry reporter who is attacking the business. Wonderful. I'm glad Elon cleared the air and in fact, I'm buying one of his cars next week. Screw your PR departments, do you really think that works on customers? Get with the times. Elon Musk did EXACTLY what he should have, and this reporter should lose his job. Since he did not and didn't bother apologizing, I cancelled my NYT subscription and will spend the next two days wiping my mind of anything I have ever read there. But no, keep going. It's the company's fault that journalists have fabricated their attack against his product and he wanted to speak to his prospective clients PERSONALLY as the engineer of the product, with data to show in no way could NYT defend their actions here and I should still feel confident in his product.
Red handed. Did you read the data? You can't bend that. There is no excuse for sabotaging a company under the "freedom of the press" clause. Here is my solution: Since NYT fabricated the story and it can be proven in court, I say the NYT's attack is technically not press and therefore should not be provided the protection "freedom of the press". I really hope he takes them in front of a judge for this. I'm appalled at Mr. Broder's and the NYT's actions. I'm disappointed that Forbes is actually trying to defend him and his attack piece. I mean… the man had the vehicle towed because he deliberately ran it out of battery.
There just is no integrity any more. It's out of control.
So not charging fully and then claiming to charge fully is good journalism?

Oscar weekend is finally here, and Dan has made a couple of appearances ahead of his involvement with tonight's Oscar ceremony.
On Friday, he was at the 2013 Women in Film Pre-Oscar Cocktail Party, chatting with Best Actress nominee Jessica Chastain.
On Saturday, Dan attended and presented at the 2013 Independent Spirit Awards, presenting the award for Best International Film alongside actress Ellen Page. Video can be seen below (courtesy of snitchseeker)
Whilst walking the red carpet at the awards, Dan spoke to MTV's Josh Horowitz about his performance at tonight's Oscar ceremony, saying he expects it to be fun, but nerve-wracking.
The Academy Awards take place this evening, from 4pm PST. Check your local TV listings for broadcast times.
Dan's Google + account has just announced that he will be presenting at tomorrow's Independent Spirit Awards. You can watch from 10pm ET/PT on IFC.
Also, don't forget that Dan is scheduled to attend and perform at this year's Oscars, airing this Sunday. Check your local listings for broadcast details.
Canal Plus has posted a behind the scenes look at Dan's upcoming film Horns, in which he plays Ig Perrish, a grieving and wrongly-accused young man who wakes up one morning to look here discover he has grown a set of horns.
The video covers Ig's futile attempts to remove his horns through various means, and we get to hear Dan's rather good American accent as he talks to a snake. Much of cialis soft 2 day delivery the video is in French, but Dan's voice is left un-dubbed and subtitled.
Horns is tentatively scheduled for an Autumn release.
Thank you to Titch for letting us know about the price cialis canada video!
Many thanks to Michelle for sending in a link to these delightful Masterpiece Classic video clips of Daniel Radcliffe (sporting his 'Equus' look) and Ian McKellen discussing David Copperfield, heralding the encore…
Many thanks to Tracey for starting our week off just right with a tip about some terrific video footage of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince posted on…
Our very own Sabine must be moonlighting as a detective because she managed to dig up this little Dan filled gem ahead of the MTV broadcast: HBP spoilers. Enjoy, and Danke schön Sabine!
The new (and somewhat illusive) Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Japanese trailer is now online, and you can watch it by clicking here. Enjoy!

Bring on the bass. Everywhere.
What do most iPod docks lack? Besides a free app that gives you a million dollars with the press of a touchscreen (this one lacks that too, sadly), most docks lack bass. Unless that dock is the Yamaha PDX-11. With the PDX-11, we're not talking about muddled, boomy bass. We're talking about room-filling, heart pounding bass that makes your audio sound amazing. A 4" subwoofer works together with a 1/8" tweeter to produce full range audio from your favorite digital music device. Plus, while it may look good on a shelf at home, this beauty isn't satisfied just sitting around the house. Its rugged design is engineered for use in the great outdoors. Add six AA batteries, and grab the sturdy metal handle, and you're ready to go. Rock out whether it's a short trip for a picnic in the park, or an epic ride to your favorite camping spots. You'll get amazing audio, and best of all, the batteries also keep your iPod or iPhone charged.

Broadway Singing, Music Performance, Music Theory, Opera Voice, Singing, Songwriting, Speaking Voice
Hello! I'm Justin, a classically trained Baritone with an emphasis in opera and art song. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Vocal Performance from the University of Wisconsin- Stevens Point, and my Master of Music degree in Vocal Performance from the University of Minnesota. In Stevens Point I sang the roles of Papageno in The Magic Flute, Marcello in La Boheme, Judge Turpin in Sweeney Todd, and Marco in Gianni Schicchi. As part of the University of Minnesota Opera Theater I have covered Ford in Falstaff, and performed Demetrius in A Midsummer Night's Dream. My recital appearances most recently include Robert Schumann's Liederkreis Op. 24, Modest Mussorgsky's Songs and Dances of Death, and multiple performances of Franz Schubert's Die Winterreise in both Minnesota and Wisconsin. I have been a Studio Artist for the critically acclaimed Mill City Summer Opera for two consecutive seasons. My responsibilities as an SA include covering roles, singing in the chorus, participation in an opera scenes program, and leading a series of Opera Enrichment classes at the Lundstrum Center for Performing Arts. I am a member of the Minnesota Opera Chorus, this being my first season with the company. I am the Bass Section Leader at Central Presbyterian Church in St. Paul, MN.
Alongside my passion for singing, I am an avid composer. I have completed a wide variety of pieces, from full orchestral works to string quartets, from 12-part choral pieces to art songs. Notable compositions include: Joys and Woes, a song cycle for Soprano; Charlotte, a song cycle for Soprano; Canticle No.1 for SATB chorus, which was marked for consideration at the UW-Stevens Point Choral Composition Competition; and the in-progress work for ensemble and voice titled "Sketches".
I have been teaching voice for 5 years now, and have taught students ages 7-70, so I know first hand that it is never too early or too late to start singing! I have prepared students for auditions, recitals, and for just plain fun. I teach with confidence so you can sing with confidence, and I have found that it works wonders.
*** Lesson Details ***
I have been teaching private voice for five years, and have been successful in teaching a variety of students and musical styles. Though my singing background is predominantly classical, I use that training to nurture healthy, strong, and organic voices. I do this by teaching both the fundamentals of singing technique (breathing, support, resonance, anatomy), and the art of musicianship, which is essential to every style of singing. I approach my personal understanding of the voice from the angle of knowing it as an instrument, as opposed to a source of sound that can easily be taken for granted. This allows for an even mix of understanding the voice organically, and understanding how the different parts of the instrument can be manipulated. No two voices are the same, and likewise, no two students are the same. Because of this, I do not teach a pre-structured technique, but rather take the time with each student to understand their instrument and craft a technique that will work most healthily and efficiently for them.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Piano, access to a large quantity of classical and pop sheet music, spacious studio space, performance space, the occasional puppy, tea, music stands, and a cool fish.
*** Specialties ***
I am a trained classical baritone, and have experience in the musical theater genre as well. I teach all genres according to the Italian school of singing, which focuses on breathing and the minimization of stress while singing. As I say: classical training is only the approach, the style is up to the singer. I have been successful in teaching all types of genres through this approach. I am also an avid composer and songwriter, and regularly teach theory in my lessons.
Broadway Singing, Music Performance, Opera Voice, Singing
I am an enthusiastic teacher who loves to help students explore and enjoy the process of singing. Singing and music can boost your confidence and can be an activity that is both challenging and enjoyable. Singing is also personal and I believe it is important to see lessons as a collaboration between teacher and student. I feel i have an affinity for teaching students of all ages who are completely new to singing and want to learn the basics.
I am also an active performer with a focus in opera and musical theater. I currently singing with Minnesota Opera and have performed such roles as Suzuki in Madame Butterfly, Alisa in Lucia, Marcellina in Le Nozze di Figaro and the title role in Carmen. I believe that a great teacher has experience they can share with students. I understand the challenges of singing because I face them professionally everyday. I find this helps to be sympathetic to a student and their needs. Due to my professional experience, I understand how much students can grow with patience and guidance.
I received a Bachelor's degree from the State University of New York College at Fredonia and my Masters from the prestigious Manhattan School of Music. I received strong training in vocal pedagogy, diction/language, and overall musicianship. These are lessons I love to share.
I have taught students at one of the top music camps in the country and have had private students for about six years. I taught everything from rock music to opera and I believe that all singing technique comes from the same principles.
*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons are professional and goal oriented, yet fun and relaxed. At the beginning of every lesson I try to assess where you are that day and work from there. The tasks and exercises we perform in each lesson are all leading to your bigger goals. You will leave every lesson with assignments for the following week to help you progress. For younger students, I also try to take some time to focus on musicianship as this can be very helpful in the initial stages of learning any instrument. After a few months of lessons, you will have a clearer understanding of how your body works in singing, specifically breath and posture. We will focus on creating a relaxed, even sound that appears effortless to others.

Hello beautiful people, students, parents, and co creators. My name is Jon. I am a 30 year old French native from Paris and I will be your teacher today. I am a happy step father who moved out to Minneapolis in 2014 to live with my wife and her children. I have been a professional photographer for more than 11 years now. Also I am an advanced practitioner of sunyoga, meditation, acupressure. I have participated in healing cancer patients and all kinds of diseases since 2013.
So what about teaching? Everybody wants the best. The best scores. The highest rates. The highest salary. We want control of our life. Everybody does. But in the process it seems we forgot to have quality of living. Quality is the most important. Each person is unique and should be treated in a unique way. What comes first? Question or answer? When you just arrive at your first day at school do you have final exams? First the teacher shares some knowledge during class. Depending on the teacher's talent and passion and love for his work the students will learn something. Then only you have exams. Life is the biggest exam off all. Every day we are being tested. With our family, friends, work. With our patience, our punctuality, our perfection. Hopefully wisdom will come out of this process. All we need is a little support to all grow together. Teaching is a big responsibility. Parents and teachers, it is our duty to teach the best. Let's do it together. Thank you
"Steven is very professional and extremely helpful. He always has a smile on and is serious about helping you phrase the music. I would highly recommend him to anyone."
"It's been really exciting so far! Jordan has been so helpful, so knowledgeable. I could not have found a better instructor and I'm getting better and better every day."
"My daughter's wedding was weeks away and I had never been able to dance a step. With Jenny's help, I came further than ever before in such short time in any subject."

Oh, good for her! I hope this baby brings joy to the couple's life!
I hope she has a safe delivery with no complications since she's knocking on the door of 40
Tonya, 39, is now working to stop drinking and to kick a chain-smoking habit in hopes of delivering a healthy baby.
"working to" stop drinking and chain-smoking? Working to?
Girl should've ceased all of that immediately after the pregnancy confirmation. Maybe it's just the writer's wording; not gonna pass judgement
any more than I already have.
Good for her. A while ago she made a comment that she was making a living, paying her bills, and she did not know what life held for her in the future . . . then she said "Maybe I'll have a family?" . . . and I thought, well you better get on that pretty quick unless you want to go the route of fertility clinics.
If true, I hope that this will motivate her to do whatever she needs to do to have a heathy family.
There goes her comeback!
Congrats to Tonya and her new husband!
And I do hope she's able to kick the smoking/drinking.
I'm surprised nobody picked up on this. This is from the story:
In 1994, Hardings then-husband Jeff Gillooly was charged in the attack on her figure Skating rival Nancy Kerrigan during a practice session for the US Figure Skating Championship; Harding later admitted she knew of the plot. After a plea bargain, she was banned for life from the US Figure Skating Association.
And this is from Wikipedia:
Harding avoided further prosecution and a possible jail sentence by pleading guilty on March 16 to conspiring to hinder prosecution of the attackers. She received three years probation, 500 hours of community service and a $160,000 fine.
On June 30, 1994, after conducting its own investigation of the attack, the USFSA stripped Harding of her 1994 title and banned her for life from participating in USFSA-run events as either a skater or a coach. The USFSA concluded that Harding knew about the attack before it happened .............
So no boys and girls, Tonya never admitted she knew of the attack before it happened.
Wouldn't it be cool if the kid skate? Tonya can be a skating mom and coach the kid from the barrier ....
Although obviously the circumstances could have (and should have) been better for the child, I hope things work out well for everybody. If this child was an "accident," then that's pretty scary. I hope he or she will have loving parents.
I am sorry.....don't want to wish anyone ill, and I hope all goes well....but IMO, this is someone who should not breed!
Aside from the smoking and drinking.....has she had any period of stability in her adult life?
Babies are not meant to "help people straighten out"....adults are supposed to get themselves straightened out, and have children.
DH - and that's just my opinion
So true.Babies are not meant to "help people straighten out"....adults are supposed to get themselves straightened out [first]
I haven't seen Tonya in the news lately except for her wedding and rumored pregnancy - so maybe her life is going well. I wish her and her family the best.
So if true, I hope this is the thing that will give Tonya's life what it needs.
Everyone deserves to be happy, and everyone deserves a second chance. (I got mine)
Peace & Love, Gypsy
Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.
Congratulations Tonya! I must says they could've chosen a better picture for the article. Tonya is prettier than that.
It's great that at 39 she's having her first.
I hope she is a better mother to her child than her mother was to her.
However, I am not sure everyone doesdeserve a second chance. It is a nice saying, and wonderfully applicable when it works. But realistically, how many people take advantage of that second chance? Lindsy Lohan anyone? And as to deserve.......I think there are some actions that simply don't deserve a second chance......Susan Smith for example.
I suspect the more "chances" a person has, and doesn't take advantage of, the less likely it is that they will pull themselves together. Tonya actually has had lots of chances............she is not the only person who came from horrid circumstances and pulled themselves up....Rudy..... Think of what she might have accomplished had she "listened" to advice (i.e. costumes) and just skated her best. She could have had a really different outcome.
Of course, she would not have been famous.
DH - and that's just my opinion

Plensa's acclaim doesn't mean sculpture is right for Shorewood park
When it comes to public art, there are a few rules of thumb that should seem glaringly obvious.
Unmistakable, clear-as-the-nose-on-your-face rule number one: If the place where you put your art looked better before you put art the art there, you've screwed up. Patently evident rule number two: If a work of art is less interesting after you've placed it in the public environment, you've likewise made a misstep.
And let me throw in a third, for good measure: There is no real point to mediocrity in public art.
If there's an edge to my voice, do forgive me. It just seems that we're determined to repeat these mistakes again and again when it comes to public art here.
The latest misadventure is "Spillover II," recently unveiled with great fanfare in Atwater Park. The sculpture of a human form made of steel letters, by internationally known artist Jaume Plensa, was described as the opening salvo for a new and ambitious public art program in the Village of Shorewood.
It is important to note that the artist is exceptional. In fact, Plensa's acclaim is at the heart of what went wrong here.
It's not an overstatement to say that the Spanish artist is probably best known for what is one of the most successful public art projects on the planet, the daring and bold Crown Fountain in Chicago's Millennium Park. If you haven't seen it, you've likely heard about this work – two tall towers featuring videos of faces of Chicagoans who sometimes pucker their lips as a stream of water shoots out and into a reflecting pool below.
Before that, Plensa was also known for his light works, unique, site-specific sculptures that could be walked on and touched but also seen from across a city at given times. That kind of layered experience, where scale and distance are critical qualities, is an essential part of his work.
The crouching human form of "Spillover II" is one that Plensa has worked with extensively in a variety of contexts. He transforms the familiar and usually organic human form into a shiny, industrial curtain of letters. It is the raw material of humanity that he's dealing with – the body and the letters that become words and language.
The lattice of letters is visually transparent and delicate, and the form of the faceless figures becomes more or less distinct depending on where you stand in relation to it.
A far larger, 26-foot version that viewers can walk into and around called "Nomad" has, fittingly, traveled around the world. Smaller versions, like the 8-foot-tall version in Shorewood, are often seen in groupings of two or three, facing each other in parks or galleries.
What works about nearly all of the other installations I've seen, albeit through photographs, is that there are so many ways to experience and interpret the works. They are in a constantly changing conversation with the viewers, the natural world and, when in a group, one another. Viewers can walk up to and even into the works, and the sculptures that are in public or natural settings are usually set onto natural stone and precisely situated so viewers can see them from multiple perspectives.
In Shorewood, the single sculpture is plunked on a clumsy concrete slab, surrounded with mulch and shrubbery and pointed squarely at the lake. With that, our ability to get close to the sculpture is frustrated and Plensa's poetic, visual epistle is turned trite and literal. The visually airy piece is also in a frenetic spot, surrounded by telephone wires, traffic and stop lights, and its subtlety is overpowered.
And let's not forget what existed there before – a rather gorgeous view of the lake. It would have been better left alone.
In the end, Shorewood's public art committee, though well intentioned certainly, was more interested in getting a brand-name artist than a great art experience.

Wow, I disagree with you on every point except for the really ugly base. The piece is basically transparent, so it is not exactly blocking the view. Second, without a true city center Shorewood doesn't exactly have a lot of places to plunk down an expensive piece of public art. Atwater park is heavily travelled allowing for people outside of Shorewood to enjoy it. Actually the stoplight allows people to take a longer look. Hey, I guess it is no bamboo park.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan. The sculpture itself just does nothing for me. and it sounds like a really un-exciting piece compared to his other works. I agree with the comment about plucking a sculpture form a gallery and putting it outside. More thought and creativity could have been put into the larger experience and how it relates to the park and etc.
The there is the Norquist approach, which was to build beautiful buildings.
BUT I do think its FAR better than those butterflies they had a few years ago....
There's quite a lot to be disappointed with in this steaming pile of do-gooderism. The process was flawed and very non-public for a Public Art Program. In a word; entitlement. A private donor was sold a chunk of a small public park so that the chairs "Public" Art Committee could get a brand name feather in its cap. There were worse choices in front of the board and the committee did work with Russel Bowman- the only person the donor would allow the purchase from- so they did have a very knowledgeable resource. Unfortunately "Spillover II" is to the Crown Fountain what Ferrari cologne is to a Ferrari in Cologne.
Besides the hideous process and the fame-clouded vision of the Shorewood Village Board that failed to professionally check that committee's process, I agree that the work makes the same run of the mill mistakes that infect most public art. Where a more integrated park plan (in the works, but ignored) would have allowed more engagement and chance for viewers to take in the work, the current placement is way too close to the intersection. Yes, cars can see it. No, a drive by isn't akin to looking at art. The goal of the location isn't about encouraging an experience with the piece or integrating the piece into the park- it is to advertise; we're Shorewood, and we're cultured. Puke. The base is just ridiculous. But, the decorative shrubbery, of course, will grow and mature. And then the base will be... ridiculous. They should have gone with the lannon stone as suggested by the artist. Where once I could stand and look out at the lake, Alphabet Poop is doing it for me. The "mediated experience" is hardly new as contemporary subject matter, but this literal demonstration is annoying. No- looking through it is not that same as an unblocked view.
As the saying goes, good is the enemy of great, and in many ways the decisions and process here made great impossible. It's a fitting metaphor to orient the figure with it's back toward the community.
As a passionate proponent of temporary public art, it can be very helpful
to try out various temporary options at a site being considered for
permanent public art.
You have to see this to actually believe it. 1st..Don't you just love the utility pole/transformer and all the wires in the photo above lurking in the background..Maybe they could have spent the money to bury the lines and remove the poles..
.The best and most visually appealing part of Atwater Park/Beach is the lake. Never the same in terms of colors/sunsets/waves..It's constantly changing and amazing to look at every time. This sculpture is a distraction/blocks the real view that is important, the lake.
The base looks like a crypt or mini mausoleum. I'm not kidding.. It's hideous and it seems to overtake everything else.
My first thought was (and I know I'll get slammed for this one) hopefully the next person who decides to drive over the bluff at the park/beach takes this out w/ them on their way down and then the park can go back to it's natural beauty...
What are they going to try and jam in this place next?..
The only building that Norquist built was the convention center, which might be the ugliest building in the city.
I am also amused that since you don't like the sculpture, you attempted to take the least flattering picture possible. You really needed to take the picture from the east to get the temporary power lines and the construction barrels in the shot?
Lastly, I don't think you are consistent when judging lakefront art. The professional art critics seem to have no problem with the sunburst blocking the lake views downtown, while most lay people think it is an eyesore.
The Calatrava is pretty much directly behind the di Suvero sunburst for the downtown lake view. So I guess the art museum blocks the lake, and the sunburst blocks that.
But I've always liked how they line up, its pretty impressive. I agree with MDavidson ... blazing past a sculpture at 25-30mph (minus the potential for a thought-provoking red light @ the intersection) is not ideal. It doesn't seem to work for the Plensa sculpture here.
But I'd call the di Suvero/Calatrava an exception for drive-by art-viewing. Heading east on Wisconsin, the combination has really grown on me. Enough that I've forgotten what the lakeview used to look like there before the Calatrava building.
Of course, that's more a case of driving directly at it than driving past it. I don't want to make another tasteless joke, but its sitting right there.
Its still quite new and I've hardly looked at it besides a couple drive-bys, but so far I'm not impressed w/ this Plensa sculpture. I get the feeling that being a public artist is almost as stressful as being a combat brain surgeon. Not to mention being on these committees.
I like the sculpture ok. I don't think it blocks the lake.. step a few feet to the left or right and voilà, a clear lake view. But without a doubt they certainly should have accepted the artist's advice and gone with a lannon stone base for the addition of texture and to avoid the look of a concrete slab.. by going with a concrete slab. Yeah, that always looks good in a green park against a blue lake under colorful trees.

Military honors were provided by the American Legion Ecklund-Holmstrom Post 117, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2793, and Minnesota Army National Guard Honor Guard. Interment was held at Greenwood Cemetery in Thief River Falls.
Vernon Oliver Stinar Lee was born on Jan. 28, 1930 on the Erickson farm in Argyle, the son of Hjalmer and Alma (Blinsmon) Lee. The Lee family moved to New Main Township near Newfolden, when he was young, and later into the town of Newfolden. He was baptized in the Lutheran faith and confirmed on October 29, 1944 at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Newfolden.
Vernon attended school in Newfolden and graduated from there in 1948. In May of 1951, Vernon entered the Service with the United States Army as a telegraph operator, stationed in Whittier, Alaska. He served his country until he was honorably discharged in May 1953.
On June 21, 1952 Vernon was united in marriage to Gloria Johnson at the Nazareth Lutheran Church in Holt. After their marriage, Vernon and Gloria made their home in Minneapolis, while Vernon worked for United States Steel. They returned to the Holt area, where they lived for a year and started their family, welcoming their first daughter, Rebecca.
Upon arriving in Holt, Vernon worked for Edgar Horien doing carpentry work. The couple moved to Thief River Falls in 1954, where he worked for Husky Oil pumping gas. In 1956, they welcomed their second daughter, Rhonda.
For thirty years, Vernon moved up the ranks at his job and saw many changes of ownership. Having worked as a bookkeeper and manager, when the opportunity arose to purchase the business in 1978, he did, naming it Thief River Oil. He and daughter, Rhonda worked side by side until his retirement.
Retirement didn't mean quitting work for Vernon. He worked for 20 years as the assistant Gambling Manager at the American Legion Post 117 in Thief River Falls. This was a job he took great pride in doing well.
Vernon was very active in the American Legion, both in the local post and in the Ninth District. He served two terms as the post commander for Post 117 in Thief River Falls, and served three times as adjutant there also. He served as Post 117 membership chairman for over 15 years. From 1993 – 1994 he served as Ninth District commander. He also served as Ninth District adjutant three times, and also was chaplain, and sergeant of arms. For 10 years, he was the leader of the Godfathers Rally, a membership turn-in for the Ninth District.
He was a life member of the American Legion Post 117, an honorary member the Lions Club, and a member of the VFW Post 2793.
Vernon served for five years as manager of the TRFinettes, an all girl drum and bugle corps, traveling to many parades and contests. He treated all 75 girls as though they were his own.
Vernon served for 12 years on the Pennington County Fair Board, two years as president and two years as secretary. In previous years, he served as president of the Men's Bowling Association, on the Board of Trustees at Trinity Lutheran Church and on the Lions Board.
Vernon loved to keep an immaculate yard which he was very proud of. At Christmastime he would spend many hours decorating and would love to watch the cars slow down to look at his home.
He will be remembered as a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather with a great love for his family.
Vernon is survived by his loving wife of 58 years, Gloria of Thief River Falls; children, Rebecca (Rocco) Wilson of Cambridge, and Rhonda (Jeff) Joppru of Thief River Falls; grandchildren, Kevin Wilson of Shoreview, Kara Wilson of Cambridge, Darrin (Allison) Wilson of Shoreview, Lisa Joppru of Fargo, N.D., and Kristi Joppru of Detroit Lakes; great-granddaughter, Lilianna Wilson; sisters, Avis Nelson of Newfolden and Betty Nelson of Thief River Falls; as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives and good friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Hjalmer and Alma Lee; brothers, Jasper Lee and his wife Phyllis, and Avery Lee and his wife Doris; brothers-in-law, Provencer Berg, Alfred Nelson, and Marvin Nelson.

This year Nike have dropped a number of kicks that people would (literally, in some cases) die to get their hands on. Trainers such as:
The Air Jordan Concord..
..the 'Back to the Future' MAG..
..and The 'Galaxy' Foamposites
It's hard to say which of these shoes was the most coveted, but my personal belief is the MAG was the most exclusive. Roll on 2015!
The most eagerly awaited shoe of the moment however is the KanYe West-designed, Air Yeezy 2.
Ye and Jigga have been rockign tem on their recent 'Watch The Throne' tour and and June 9th they will be released right here in UK. Other countries too, but you'll have to look them up, heh.

Hanon Shop
154 Market Street

Dragon Brings Back Experiments, Equipment
March 26, 2013 | WMFE- A private spacecraft carrying over a ton of cargo from the International Space Station splashed down in the Pacific Tuesday afternoon.
[Dragon Parachutes Into the Pacific - Image Courtesy SpaceX]
The Dragon capsule launched from Cape Canaveral more than 3 weeks ago.
The spacecraft splashed down a few hundred miles off the coast of Baja California, with more than 2,500 pounds of science experiments and equipment – including a freezer load of research samples from the space station.
It's the second of 12 contracted resupply missions to the ISS Space X will carry out with its Dragon capsule.
The California based company is one of two to build and test new spacecraft under NASA's Commercial Orbital Transportation Services Program. Virginia based Orbital Sciences Corp. is also preparing for a demonstration flight of it's Cygnus capsule to the space station later this year.
SpaceX hopes to eventually ferry astronauts into orbit from US soil on board the Dragon spacecraft.

A Printmaker's Perspective: A Life Told in Layers
Ginna Dowling makes biographical artwork. It tells the story of her heritage and life experiences, which she believes were necessary to make the commitment to be an artist. "I lived my entire life surrounded by the arts," says Dowling. Included in her lineage are poets, musicians, sculptors, and visual artists including her mother Polly Hammet and aunt Virginia Cobb, both nationally recognized and published artists. "My family influenced me more than anything or anyone else. Brushes soaking in containers of water, portfolios propped against the wall, mockups and layouts scattered on the surfaces of tables, and the smell of damp clay were such a normal part of my youth that it never dawned on me how unusual this was to most people."
The artwork in Dowling's exhibit tells the stories of her life experiences from a printmaker's perspective. It is her story told in layers through artwork made over the last decade. View more...

After my grandmother, Luisa Bertolo (née Mattioli), died in 2009, I helped my family clean out the seniors apartment she had been living in for over twenty years. It was a compact little apartment, but Ma (as we all called her) kept a lot in there. With her increasing dementia, she had been hiding valuables for some time. We were all told to check every pocket, every box, even the sugar bowl, in case she may have hidden something there.
In the end, one of the treasures we found wasn't hidden away at all. It was lying on the floor and could easily have been discarded.
This is the story of Oro alla Patria.
Once we had removed almost everything from the apartment, we started cleaning. Dad was vacuuming near the kitchen when he heard the vacuum knock something metallic. He bent over and picked up what seemed to be some sort of steel band. He put it on the stove and continued vacuuming. I came by a while later and saw this thing on the stove. I picked it up and gave it a good "what the heck is this" look. Hmm. It appeared to be made of steel. It was two centimetres in diameter and a half-centimetre thick. It was rounded over, like a ring for your finger. I looked inside and was surprised to see engraving: ORO ALLA PATRIA 18.11.35.XIV.[another digit or three I can't make out].
What the heck?!? Oro alla Patria?!?
That evening, I showed the ring to Aunty Mary. She said that Ma had been wearing that ring for a few months before she died, but Aunty Mary hadn't seen the ring before that.
When I googled Oro alla Patria at Aunty Mary's, I found that back in the mid-1930s, Italy was suffering from the economic recession and and Mussolini asked Italians to give their gold to the government. The campaign was called "Oro alla patria" or gold for the fatherland. Apparently his wife donated her wedding rings and Marconi gave his Senatorial medal. In return, some people were given steel armbands or rings engraved Oro alla Patria.
How had this ring come to be in Ma's home? Mom remembered a story about Ma's mother having given up her wedding band. But Nona Filomena had come to Canada in 1929, with Ma and Aunty Lina. Her husband Augusto had been here for over fifteen years at that point.
But, in 1938, Nona Filomena returned to Italy to sell the house there before the Second World War – good thing, because when Mom and I were in Fano in 2000, the house could no longer be found. (One day I'll try to find out if it was bombed in the war or the city just decided to tear it down.) It could be that she decided, while she was in Italy, to give up her wedding ring and received the steel ring in its place.
Why would she give up the ring? Was she so loyal to Mussolini, even after a decade in Canada? Was she pressured to give it up while she was there, perhaps to facilitate the sale of the house? Or did it reflect her feelings about her marriage? In another post, I'll tell you more about Augusto, but in short, he doesn't appear to have been an ideal husband.
We don't even know for sure that it was Nona who received the steel ring or what she gave up for it. I may be able to get a record from Italian archives to confirm if it was Nona. Even so, we would never know why she would have given up her ring.
I imagine that Nona's gold wedding band would have greater monetary value than this steel ring. But money isn't everything.
What do you have from your grandmother or greatgrandmother? Does it have monetary value or sentimental value?

Don't have time right now to review the entire list - I'll do that tonight - but I'll note that golems and uncroaked don't get Military unless they're led by a Dollamancer or Croakamancer with the appropriate ability. They CAN take Skilled to give them more access to Combat Modifiers, but won't be able to use Combat Modifiers or anything that requires the Military special until they're led by the appropriate caster.Exate wrote:Could not find up to date versions of all the golem designs; I'm pretty sure spending AP on things like Block is now not a thing, since as they are based on the Warrior they will start with the Military special automatically instead. Guessed at what they should be accordingly.
Edit: And it looks like the Leadership Level 2s should have 18 Hits, while the Heavies have 22.
