Kirill Gerstein, pianist
"On the fast track to a major career, and he deserves to be." – Boston Globe
The multifaceted pianist Kirill Gerstein has rapidly ascended into classical music's highest ranks. With a masterful technique, discerning intelligence, and a musical curiosity that has led him to explore repertoire spanning centuries and styles, he has proven to be one of today's most intriguing and versatile musicians. His early training and experience in jazz has contributed an important element to his interpretive style, inspiring an energetic and expressive musical personality that distinguishes his playing.
Mr. Gerstein is the sixth recipient the prestigious Gilmore Artist Award, presented every four years to an exceptional pianist who, regardless of age or nationality, possesses broad and profound musicianship and charisma and who desires and can sustain a career as a major international concert artist. Since receiving the award in 2010, Mr. Gerstein has shared his prize through the commissioning of boundary crossing new works by Oliver Knussen, Brad Mehldau, Chick Corea and Timothy Andres, with additional commissions scheduled for future seasons. Mr. Gerstein was also awarded First Prize at the 2001 Arthur Rubinstein Piano Competition in Tel Aviv, received a 2002 Gilmore Young Artist Award, and a 2010 Avery Fisher Grant.
In the 2012-13 season, Mr. Gerstein makes subscription debuts with the Boston Symphony Orchestra playing Prokofiev's Piano Concerto and Thomas Adès' concerto In Seven Days conducted by Mr. Adès, the Philadelphia Orchestra performing Gershwin's Concerto in F major conducted by Giancarlo Guerrero, the Montreal Symphony performing Bernstein's Age of Anxiety led by Jacques Lacombe and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra performing Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto led by Mr. Guerrero. While in Boston, Mr. Gerstein and Mr. Adès will also perform piano four hands and chamber music by Elliott Carter and Brahms with the Boston Symphony Chamber Players. Mr. Gerstein's return engagements include performances with the Indianapolis Symphony, Oregon Symphony, St. Louis Symphony and San Antonio Symphony where he will be the soloist in both Brahms concertos during the orchestra's Brahms Festival. He will perform in recital for the La Jolla Music Society and at the Eastman School of Music, and tour with long-time chamber music partner cellist Steven Isserlis, with performances at the 92nd Street Y in New York, Wolftrap in Vienna, VA, with the Cleveland Chamber Music Society and at the University of Chicago. Internationally he will make his debuts with the Czech Philharmonic conducted by Jiří Bělohlávek, NDR Hamburg with Semyon Bychkov, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin with Marek Janowski, Tonnkunstler Symphony Vienna led by Claus Peter Flor; and return to London for performances with the Philharmonia Orchestra, at the Proms and in recital at Queen Elizabeth Hall.
In the 2011-12 season Mr. Gerstein debuted with the New York Philharmonic, Seattle Symphony and at the Aspen Music Festival and London's Proms. He also performed Rachmaninoff's complete concertos in a three week residency with the Houston Symphony. His recent North American engagements also include performances with the Cleveland Orchestra and Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Milwaukee, San Francisco and Vancouver symphonies among others; festival appearances at the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival, Chicago's Grant Park, with the Philadelphia Orchestra at Vail Valley Bravo Festival, Mann Music Center and Saratoga, with the Boston Symphony at Tanglewood, and with the Cleveland Orchestra at Blossom; and recitals in New York at the 92nd Street Y and Town Hall, Boston, Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami, Vancouver and at Washington's Kennedy Center.
Internationally, Kirill Gerstein has worked with such prominent European orchestras as the Munich, Rotterdam and Royal Philharmonics, London's Philharmonia, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Dresden Staatskappelle, Zurich Tonhalle, the Finnish and Swedish Radio Orchestras, WDR Symphony Orchestra Cologne and the Deutsches Symphonie Orchester Berlin, as well as with the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Tokyo and the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra in Caracas with Gustavo Dudamel. He has also performed recitals in Paris, Prague, Hamburg, London's Queen Elizabeth Hall and at the Liszt Academy in Budapest. He made his Salzburg Festival debut playing solo and two piano works with Andras Schiff and has also appeared at the Verbier, Lucerne and Jerusalem Chamber Music Festivals.
His first solo recording featuring works by Schumann, Liszt and Oliver Knussen, released by Myrios Classics, was chosen by The New York Times as one of the best recordings of 2010. Mr. Gerstein also collaborated with Tabea Zimmerman on a recording of Sonatas for viola and piano by Rebecca Clarke, Henri Vieuxtemps and Johannes Brahms for the Myrios label, released in February 2011.
Born in 1979 in Voronezh, in southwestern Russia, Mr. Gerstein studied piano at a special music school for gifted children and while studying classical music, taught himself to play jazz by listening to his parents' extensive record collection. After coming to the attention of vibraphonist Gary Burton, who was performing at a music festival in the Soviet Union, Mr. Gerstein came to the United States at 14 to study jazz piano as the youngest student ever to attend Boston's Berklee College of Music. After completing his studies in three years and following his second summer at the Boston University program at Tanglewood, Mr. Gerstein turned his focus back to classical music and moved to New York City to attend the Manhattan School of Music, where he studied with Solomon Mikowsky and earned both Bachelors and Masters of Music degrees by the age of 20. He continued his studies in Madrid with Dmitri Bashkirov and in Budapest with Ferenc Rados. An American citizen since 2003, Mr. Gerstein now divides his time between the United States and Germany, where he has been a professor of piano at the Musikhochschule in Stuttgart since 2006.

Building web services on Equinox and Restlet #3
After having implemented the server application, we want to prepare ourselves for future changes. We want to be able to add new services to our application without impacting existing ones. We also may want to change the structure of the URIs in case they are not cool.
To do so, we'll create extension points and the supporting code for the Restlet types used and contribute our implementations and see how that this helps us making our application more flexible and maintainable.
We'll learn how to define an extension point, how to contribute to it and how to work with the contributions.
You should have skimmed over the first two posts of this series. If they do not contain new information for you you to not have to work through them, however since we are going to build upon the results from the last post, you should get the latest code from the post2 branch1Â if you do not have it yet.Introducing Extension Points
The extension point mechanism is a powerful feature that allows multiple bundles to communicate with each other. A bundle defining one or many extension points basically says "I am extensible. You can add your extension code here. ". An extension contributed to an extension point provides additional functionality to its bundle. The twist is that you can extend the bundle providing the extension point without making any changes to it. This is particularly useful when you want to customize/build upon an application without modifying it2.The extension point is a piece of XML schema that defines how contributions to that point are to be structured, i.e. which attributes they need in which cardinality and of which type. The contribution to the extension point is made in the plugin.xml file of the contributing bundle. In addition to that, there needs to be some code that evaluates all contributions to the extension point and provides them to the core implementation. Note that this also separates the implementation of single components (code) from their use (contribution). In my experience, this leads to a significantly improved overall design as the definition modular structure of an application is clearly separated from its implementation and people tend to think about modularization earlier and more clearly as a part of the development workflow3.
Eclipse and others uses this paradigm e.g. to provide IDEs in very different flavors4 5 6, but they all share a common core.  I daresay that this  is one of the key factors to the success of Eclipse and its wonderfully vibrant and diverse ecosystem. The implementation of extension mechanism is provided by the Eclipse Equinox project 7. You could argue that a similar result can be achieved by using plain OSGi (declarative) services, perhaps we'll do so in a later post. For a comparison refer to Neil Bartlett's excellent posts8 9.
If you want to dig deeper, there is quite a number of useful articles on that topic out there 10 11 12 13.The Restlet Registry – Extension Points
The backbone of our new architecture will be the Restlet registry. It will contain the definitions of our extension points  and the supporting code that evaluates contributions to these extension points. Our final registry will consist of multiple extension points:- Resources
- Components
- Applications
- Routers
- Filters
To avoid clutter16, we'll put all registry components into a new bundle. Create a new bundle as described in the first post 17 and call it "net.wolfgangwerner.restlet.registry".Â
Let's start with the first extension point, Resources. A resource consist of an ID and a corresponding implementation class. First, activate the editors for extensions in the new project's properties.
To be able to reference the the ServerResource interface, it needs to be added to the registry bundle's dependencies.
After that, open the MANIFEST.MF file from the META-INF folder an go to the extension point tab. Click "Add" to add a new extension point. Enter 'resources' as ID 18 and 'Restlet Resources' as name.
Clicking "Ok" takes us the extension point schema editor. You should really enter useful information on how the extensions contributed will be handled. The function of your extension point may seem clear to you now, but remember you are building an interface for public (more or less) consumption.
Now let's go to the "Definition" tab and add a new element "resource". Add the attributes "id", "name" and "class" to the new element. IDs  and names should have the type String; Classes the type Java with the restriction that contributed classes must implement Restlet's ServerResource interface. Then select the 'extension' element and add a "New Sequence" of the cardinality 1:n. Add a reference to the "resource" element to the new sequence.
ÂThe next extension point to implement  is the one for Restlet Components. It should be able to handle a collection of component elements, each with a name for human (developer) readable representation, a list of servers it uses (each with protocol and port) and a list of referenced resources. Note that if you create references to IDs, you can also restrict the element you want to reference. Go ahead and try to create the extension point on your own now. If you get stuck, the screenshots19 below should help.
- Resources
- resource (1:*)
- id (String)
- name (String)
- class (Java, implements org.restlet.resource.ServerResource)
- resource (1:*)
- Components
- component (1:*)
- name (String)
- a  list (1:*) of elements of the types
- server
- name (String)
- protocol (String)
- port (String)
- resourceReference  (1:*)
- urlTemplate (String)
- resourceId (Identifier, Restlet Resources/@id)
- server
- component (1:*)
Go back to the original net.wolfgangwerner.tutorial1.restlet bundle and open the plugin.xml file and go to the "Extensions" tab. Click "Add" to add a new extension point to contribute to. In the following dialog, deselect "Show only extension points from the required plug-ins". Select the resources extension point we just created and click "Finish". When prompted, confirm you want to add the registry plug-in to the list of required bundles.
Since we specified a lower bound of one element for the resource element, one has already been created for us. PDE is smart enough to parse our extension point schema and configure the editor correspondingly. 20
Enter an ID, a name and the implementing class. The ID is used later to attach the resource to the Restlet Component. You should use a fully qualified ID (i.e. including the bundle name) here to make it unique within the runtime21. Though you can choose any ID you like, using a fully qualified one protects you from name clashes with extensions in other bundles. The name will be used as label in the extension editor; use a label that helps you identifying it once you contributed a larger number of resources. To chose the implementing class, you can use the code assist shortcut Ctrl+Space.
Repeat the last steps to contribute the Greeting List Resource in the same manner.
Then add a component extension and use its context menu to define two servers (e.g. HTTP on port 80 and on port 8080). Then add a resource reference element, enter "/greet" as URL template and browse for the corresponding identifier22.
Now your extension definitions should look like this:The Restlet Registry – Implementation
Now that we have defined our extension points and contributed our code to them, we need to write the code that actually does something with this information.As we need to reference the registry bundle to get its extension points, we add an ID to its Activator. The ID is the same as the bundle id of the registry bundle23.
To keep the code that evaluates the contributed extensions separate from our bundle life cycle code, we create a new class called RestletRegistry that encapsulates . We can simply ask the Platform to give us all contributions to a specific extension point. Â We specify the extension point by its namespace 24 and the name of the extension point. We iterate over the list of contributions and save the contents in our Restlet Registry. This is straight forward for the 'id' attribute but requires some thought for the resource class. While there is a shortcut to create an executable extension (read: Object) from a class attribute, this doesn't help us: The Restlet API requires us to attach the resource's Class. In a non-OSGi environment, we could simply call Class.forName(String), but this will fail here as each bundle has a separate class loader. Instead, we need to get the contributing bundle and let it load the class for us using its own class loaded25.
Getting the data from the component extensions is pretty straightforward. We get the extensions as we did for the resources, create a Restlet component for each extension, then add the corresponding servers to it and attach the resources at the given URL templates.
To keep our code clean26, we split the parsing into several small methods27.
You'll have noted that there are several exceptions that can be thrown when working with extensions. In real life, you'll need to safeguard your code against invalid extensions28. Invalid extensions should be ignored and logged but may not impact other extensions contributed to the same extension point or obstruct the operation of the core.
In the last post, we started our server from the Activator of the first bundle. Since we are going to start all contributed components instead of hardcoding them, we can delete this Activator class and remove it from the Manifest.
Now all we have to do to make it run is to tie the registered component's life cycle to the one of our registry bundle and adjust our launch configuration to include and auto-start the registry bundle.
They tried to make me go to recap …
You just created a small framework to build Restlet based web services and run them on the equinox OSGi runtime. You started by building an OSGi bundle that contained a simple Restlet web service. You rolled this bundle into a standalone server application. In the second post, you extended the application and learned a little bit about Restlet. Along the way, you also picked up some OSGi knowledge.In this post, we improved our application by allowing the contribution of additional resources from other bundles as well.
The application is not yet finished, I left some work for you29. The next step is to create more extension points to allow the contribution of other Restlet subclasses (Filters, Applications and Routers) and finish the migration of the version from post #2.
Prior art includes the presentation of Shams and Norris on eclipsecon 200830. Originally I wanted to give the code they created a try, but was deterred by a strange license and download process. Others have noticed that as well 31.
I will wrap the final results of the Restlet Registry with all extension points into a project ready to use, stay tuned 32 if you are interested. I'd also be happy to discuss whether the current extension point setup matches real world requirements and how it could be improved. Implementing a Restlet OSGi service is also very conceivable. Let me know if you want to help or simply go ahead and fork the repository.

Very cool! I've blogged about this tutorial and our current GSoC 2010 project to integrate Restlet with Equinox: http://blog.noelios.com/2010/05/06/gsoc-and-restlet-integration-with-equinox/
It would be great if you could join us and maybe contribute your initial code.

[...] However, even though deploying Restlet components and applications in an OSGi environment is already possible and explained in the user guide, it doesn't take advantage of the dynamic and extensible nature of OSGi. Today, Bryan Hunt pointed me to a great tutorial written by Wolfgang Werner that nicely describes the Restlet Framework, covers its usage with Eclipse's Plugin Development Environment (PDE) and explains how to leverage Equinox's extension points to dynamically register Restlet components, applications and resources. See the series of posts titled "Building web services on Equinox and Restlet":Â part #1, part #2 and part #3. [...]
Awesome momentum on these topics right now, great!
I already planned to roll the tutorial results into something usable and push it on github. I'd love to share it to get things started.
What is your timeframe?Thanks,
Wolfgang -
Perfect indeed! Please go ahead with your plans on github. Our timeframe is based on the Google Summer of Code program.
See the official timeline (currently in the "community bonding period"):
Jerome -
I'll drop you a note when I'm done.
I think I'll be able to throw something together during the next week. -
I just pushed something usable to http://github.com/wwerner/erica
Great work, saved by day! Muchas gracias!
It's a goodPost

Leave it 100% stock. Why bother putting expensive sprinkles on your oatmeal? It's still gonna be oatmeal.
My Grandma is looking for a new car and in the event that she actually picks one I will be the recipient of her Camry.
It's a 2.2 auto 119,000 miles should last me till I'm out of college at least.
My question to the car lounge is.
Leave it 100% stock minus a CD player with AUX/USB?
OR slowly go the OEM+ route with Lexus wheels or other toyota wheels with better offset, a TRD lip spoiler, skirts and a slight drop?
I'm leaning towards the rock it stock option because I'm in school and should focus on other things but I just can't not personalize it a little bit.

Don't waste your money, you could do better things with it while you are in college, or keep it in a maintenance fund... Drive the Camry stock, it will probably last you another decade anyways
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean doesnt become dirty
Keep it stock. I'm a college student too and I have a hard time fighting the urge especially bc I just started auto-x, but having money for other things is so much nicer. Plus its a Camry. However, if you live at home and have room for 2 cars, I would use it as an excuse to buy a project.

Truth is spoken in the car lounge. I'm keeping it stock.
I currently drive an f250 on 37's love and hate it. I put it up for sale a week before I found out about my Gma's plans, so its a welcome surprise.
Either I'll keep my ridiculous Bro-dozer or sell it to pay off some bills and rock the stock till I'm out of school.
Just make sure you keep it in good running condition. It will never die and always come in handy as the once in a while beater vehicle.

If you wanna be OG, dent in the passenger side rear bumper corner.
Adjusting my lifestyle with the grace and wisdom of a potato.
You can still autocross a stock automatic Camry, and you'll have just as much fun as you would in it modified. Leave it stock, put a nice head unit in it - even the stock speakers (6.5's in the front doors and 6x9's in the rear deck) make for solid potential for bass response with decent head unit power to them.
The 2.2 auto just sucks for anything else. 134hp with a 4spd automatic is adequate, and nothing more. It actually doesn't even make for good gas mileage because the drivetrain is just barely enough for this car, and the engine's just generally trying too hard.
It will last forever, though, and it's a pretty quiet and comfy cruiser. I got my first speeding ticket in a '99 2.2/auto Camry because it's easy to speed in without realizing it.
Sell the brodozer. Drive the camry. When your done college, sell the camry PIECE by PIECE. Make presumably quite a bit of $ , probably more than if you sold it whole (otherwise why bother?) Then buy a "nice" car
Don't go to college and take that money and mod the Camry. Get some hookers and blow too.
I would leave it stock except for putting on some good tires and maybe upgrading the suspension (if the current suspension is shot).
You are never going to make it cool, but you can at least massage better handling out of the relatively light sedan.

It was exciting to watch last week's come-from-behind British Open victory by Ernie Els over Adam Scott at Royal Lytham and St. Anne's.
It was also interesting to see the differences in playing conditions between British links courses and many of the courses we play here in the U.S. - especially the sand traps.
Top PGA pros can get up and down from our perfectly manicured bunker 70 percent of the time, but the small, steep-faced bunkers golfers faced last week were true hazards.
On the sixth hole of the final round, Tiger Woods needed a couple of shots to extricate his ball. Woods' second swing was actually an amazing shot from his knees - something you would hardly ever see on any course on this side of the Atlantic.
Iron Masters focus
A full field of 120+ teams will be competing in eight flights this weekend at Iron Masters Country Club near Roaring Spring.
Golfers will be starting their rounds off of holes No. 1 and No. 12 - something new for this year.
Defending champion Cameron Sprowles will be returning this year, but he'll be without partner Dan Ott, his winning teammate from last year.
This week he will be teaming with another Wilmington University teammate - Andrew Baldo. Other championship flight teams include Artie Fink Jr. and Josh Leibfried, Frank Frontino and Bernie DiLoreto, Ben DelBaggio III and Jimmy Ferguson and J.P. Stultz and John Handrigan.
No seeds, please
I had the pleasure of golfing in the same foursome as Huntingdon's Ed Strickler this weekend. Strickler has been one of the best golfers in our area for decades, and it's always a treat to watch him strategically work his way around a golf course.
At one point during the round though, Strickler became colorful, to say the least, when he shared a pet-peeve of his - golfers who leave behind 'spent' sunflower seed shells.
After removing several from his putting line on more than one hole, the usually mild mannered Huntingdon Country Club Champion could hardly contain himself.
"It's the most disgusting habit I've seen on a golf course - you can quote me on that," he said.

Jumex® Nectar Mango Juice (From Concentrate) brings you the highest quality Mango Nectar that you will find anywhere! Our high standards and committment to quality means that we use only the finest mango pulp with purified water - Just one sip and you will taste the difference!
There are many ways to enjoy our delicious mango nectar. Serve chilled or over ice, or perhaps you'd like to try something more exotic like wonderful frozen and mixed drinks that are sure to please!
The mango is the most popular fruit in the world. The origin of the mango most likely lies in the Burma-Melanesian regions of Southeast Asia. Mangoes have been cultivated for more than 4,000 years in India where the mango is traditionally appreciated as a religious object by Indians.
Cultivation of mangoes slowly spread to tropical and subtropical countries. It is said that Persian sailors introduced mangoes to East Africa in the 10th century A.D., while Portuguese travelers of the 16th century brought them into West Africa and South America.
Mangoes were introduced in Mexico about 1775 and trees are now harvested in 24 states. The main states exporting mangoes to the United States include Michoacan, Sinaloa, Nayarit, Jalisco, Veracruz and Chiapas.
The U.S. imports mangoes mainly from Mexico, Haiti and Guatemala from February through September.The flavor of the mango is described as a delicate blend of peach, pineapple and apricot flavors, the perfect mixture of sweet and sour. The flesh of the ripe mango has a buttery texture surrounding a large, flat, inedible seed in the center.
The mango is a comfort food. Mangos really can make you feel better! Beyond being delicious and rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, mangos contain an enzyme with stomach soothing properties similar to papain found in papayas. These comforting enzymes act as a digestive aid and can be held partially responsible for that feeling of contentment. Mango is a very good tenderizing agent due to these same enzymes, therefore ideal to include in any marinade.

When the economy takes a turn for the worse, many businesses begin cutting costs, and media spending is often the first thing to go. But historically - based on research conducted over the last 80 years - maintaining or even increasing media spending can give businesses an advantage over the competition. These studies all point to a definitive relationship between ad spending and growth in long-term market share (S.O.M.) and profitability. An analysis of the 1990-91 recession by Penton Research Services, Coopers Lybrand, in conjunction with Business Science International, found that better performing businesses focused on a strong marketing program. This enabled them to solidify their customer base, take business away from less aggressive competitors, and position themselves for future growth during the recovery. In a well-known study of U.S. recessions, McGraw-Hill Research analyzed 600 companies from 1980-1985. Results showed firms that maintained or increased their advertising expenditures during the 1981-1982 recession averaged significantly higher sales growth, both during the recession and for the next three years, compared to those that eliminated or decreased advertising. By 1985, sales revenues for companies that were aggressive recession advertisers had risen 256% over those that limited their advertising. These results are consistent with studies going as far back as the recession of 1949.

The 5/3/1 Method
Never plateau again with this new workout method
When I was a competitive powerlifter, I squatted 1,000 pounds, deadlifted 700, and bench-pressed 675 in competition. Several years later, I can honestly say I am stronger, though I am about 50 pounds lighter. I also haven't plateaued in six months. Most guys into serious training never reach their size and strength goals because they plateau. They hit a wall and can't boost the numbers on their main lifts. Not me. My secret? The 5/3/1 training method. See how it works below, then apply it to our workout to follow.
1) Find your 1RM (one-repetition maximum, the most weight you can lift for one perfect rep on an exercise) on the barbell shoulder press, bench press, squat, and deadlift. Now subtract 10% of that number.
2) Each week, you'll build your workouts around those main lifts. You'll perform three sets for each using a weight that's a specific percentage of the adjusted 1RM number. The weight will go up each set. For instance, the first time you do each workout, you'll complete your first set using 65% of the number you calculated above. For the second set, you'll use 75%. The third, 85%. The next time you do that workout, you'll use 70%, 80%, and 90%, respectively. See the table on our directions page for the rep and specific loading guidelines for each workout.
3) The first time you go through the workouts, you'll do five reps per set for your main lifts. The second time, three reps. The third time through, your first set will use five reps, your second three, and your third one rep. For the fourth and final rotation, you'll go back to five reps.
4) Do only the number of reps prescribed on every set, except for the third (final) set of each main lift. In that case, the prescribed number of reps is a minimum. Go for as many reps as you can, trying to set a new personal record for that exercise.
At first, you might be worried that you're lifting too light. After all, strength is built by training with heavy weights, and the percentages you use will make many of the sets feel easy. But by progressing very slowly, you'll keep making progress indefinitely. That means you can train your favorite lifts longer without having to change them up. Our program focuses on the shoulder press, bench press, squat, and deadlift—probably the four best exercises for overall muscle and strength—ensuring that you raise your numbers on them significantly. How much? Just to give you an idea, I put my girlfriend on the program and she increased her bench press from 115 pounds for six reps to 125 for 11 reps in just four months (now imagine what it can do for you). So the 5/3/1 program doesn't just increase your maximal strength, but also your ability to do maximum repetitions, which makes for more useful gains and awesome muscle growth.
More Reasons to Try It:
Why the 5/3/1 method works for everybody
- The program is great for relative beginners, as it gives you a long-term plan to follow and prevents you from taking too many sets to failure, which would endanger your recovery.
- It's great for advanced guys. Adding 10-15 pounds to your 1RM in six months is doable, and tremendous if you're already quite strong and have been stuck on the same numbers for years.
- It makes for quick workouts. Your main focus is to hit your last set hard, setting a new record for your maximum number of reps with a certain weight. After that, you'll do two assistance lifts and you're done. This means quick workouts and maximum productivity.
FREQUENCY: Perform three workouts per week, resting at least a day between each session. So you'll do Workouts A, B, and C the first week, and then pick up the next week with Workout D (followed by A and B). Continue the cycle for five weeks, or until you've completed each workout four times. Notice that the last time you do Workout D will carry over to a sixth week (if you keep to the three-workouts-per-week cycle).
You can perform it on Week 6, or, if you'd rather have that entire week to begin a new phase in your training, you can add the squat (Workout D's main lift) to your last Workout C. Simply perform the squat right after your deadlift in Workout C, following the same deload parameters (explained below). In other words, combine Workouts C and D so that the training period ends in your last workout of Week 5.
HOW TO DO IT: Do three exercises per workout. The first (your main lift) will follow the 5/3/1 method. The remaining two exercises (assistance lifts) are up to you. (See the exercise recommendations in each workout.) Take as much rest time as you need between sets of your main exercise, and try to keep the rest periods for your assistance lifts shorter—approximately 60-90 seconds.
The 5/3/1 method builds on your 1RM (one-repetition maximum)—the heaviest weight you can lift for one perfect rep on an exercise. You can test your 1RM before beginning this program or just estimate it, but be conservative. Now, subtract 10% from your 1RM, and base all the percentages you use on your main lifts on that new number.
This means that if you can deadlift 300 pounds for one rep, use 270 as your 1RM. So, as you'll see below, your first deadlift workout would have you using 65% of 270 for one set of five reps, then 75% of 270 for five, and finally 85% for five. If the exact percentage comes out to be an amount that you can't load onto the bar due to the increments of the plates you have available (such as 25-, 10-, and 5-pound plates), round up or down as needed.
Remember, however, that it's better to go too light than it is to accidentally go too heavy and not be able to complete your reps. You must perform all the prescribed reps. See the table on the next page for a complete guide on how to perform your main lifts in each workout throughout the five-week period. The first time you perform one of the workouts (A, B, C, or D) is Wave 1. The second time is Wave 2, and so on.
Wave 1 | Wave 2 | Wave 3 | Wave 4 |
3 x 5 | 3 x 3 | 3 x 5/3/1 | Deload |
Sets: 3 Reps: 65% x 5, 75% x 5, 85% x 5 | Sets: 3 Reps: 70% x 3, 80% x 3, 90% x 3 | Sets: 3 Reps: 75% x 5, 85% x 3, 95% x 1 | Sets: 3 Reps: 40% x 5, 50% x 5, 60% x 5 |
With the exception of the deload workouts (Wave 4), perform as many reps as you can on the last set of each main lift, no matter how many reps are prescribed. For example, even though the last set of your workout in Wave 2 calls for 90% of your 1RM for a set of three reps, try to do more than three. If you can only get three, that's fine, but your goal should be to get more reps with good form. For the deload workouts, stick to the recommended rep range; do not push yourself that week. For the first two sets you perform, complete only the prescribed number of reps, regardless of the fact that the weight will feel light and you can do more.
After five weeks (after you've completed all the deload workouts in Wave 4), add poundage to the 1RM you started working with. For the shoulder press and bench press, add five pounds. For the squat and deadlift, add 10. Calculate the new poundages you'll be using according to each wave, and repeat the entire cycle again. For instance, if your adjusted deadlift 1RM was 270 pounds before, increase it to 280. You'll now complete your first deadlift workout using percentages based on that figure.
TIP: To save even more time, perform exercises 2 and 3 as alternating sets. That means you can do one set of exercise 2, rest, then one set of exercise 3, rest again, and repeat for all the prescribed sets.

Residents oppose rezoning
Citing the objections of more than 100 nearby residents, the city-parish Planning Commission voted 7-1 on Monday to reject developer Ben Skillman's request to rezone his residential property at Perkins Road and Stuart Avenue for medical office use.
The measure, which also would require a change to East Baton Rouge Parish's land-use map, drew opposition from those who called it "spot zoning" that would only serve to help Skillman sell the property and continue the encroachment of commercial development south of Perkins Road in Baton Rouge.
Skillman's attorney, Randy Roussel, three supporters and the recommendation of the Planning Commission's staff contended that Perkins is too busy and lined with commercial development for the property to be considered too residential to rezone.
Jamie Landry Karem, a legally blind woman living next to the property with her husband and three children, pointed out that the entrance to the gated property is on Stuart, interior to the neighborhood.
She said the fact that Skillman has used the house as his office for years does not amount to tacit approval from the neighborhood, as claimed.
"A home office is completely different than an office building," said Karem, noting she and many others walk the neighborhood regularly and deserve to have it stay residential.
While Roussel pointed to the development across Perkins and some even on the south side, residents opposed were adamant that the Planning Commission honor the maps that show the street zoned residential around much of the property and FuturEBR, the new $1.9 million master plan adopted by the commission and the city-parish a year ago.
"We've spent the time, worked hard ... let's follow the plan," said Dennis Vidirine of the Goodwood Property Owners Association.
"Already one year into the plan, you're not going to follow the spirit of the map?" asked Nancy Curry, president of the Goodwood Villa Area Neighborhood Association.
"Apparently, it was a waste if you're going to chuck it this quickly," resident Elise Allen said.
Kathy Wascom, who lives nearby on Aberdeen Avenue, said she used to work at the library, where the amendments to the Horizon Plan added significantly to the document.
"It brings a real cynicism toward government when you see exception after exception after exception ..." she said.
Warner J. Delaune, a lawyer and opponent of the proposed rezoning, said rezoning to a small planned unit development, typically done to encourage infill development in difficult spaces by giving the developer maximum flexibility, does not apply here.
"This is not a unique and creative development," he said. "It's a man trying to sell his property."
"The main purpose is for Mr. Skillman to sell his property," said Greg Aycock, a lawyer who opposed the change. "That's why we're here today."
Roussel, Skillman's representative at the meeting, said the property has been on the market for 18 months and prospective buyers are telling Skillman it is more appropriate for office use.
"Perkins Road is not a residential street in this section," he said.
Patricia Angelle, a pharmacist, addressed concerns among residents that the group of psychiatrists Skillman wants to sell his property to will be treating recovering drug addicts, which would severely affect property values.
Frank Muscarello, a former commissioner and a parishioner at St. Aloysius Catholic Church, compared saying commercial developments fit on the south side of Perkins to saying you could put a chemical plant in the neighborhoods across from ExxonMobil.
Commissioner Martha Jane Tassin said that while she considers herself pro-development and the master plan a fluid document, "I don't believe this is the place to start changing FuturEBR."
Commissioner John Price also said he considers the change "spot zoning."
Commissioner W.T. Winfield, on the other hand, challenged residents' contention that they have not opposed all development and echoed the staff's contention that there are commercial uses nearby. His motion to approve died without a second.
Commissioners Tara Wicker, Darius Bonton, James Gilmore, Sarah Holliday-James, Laurie Marien, Price and Tassin voted to deny the change.
Winfield voted against the denial. Commissioner Audrey Nabors Jackson was absent.
The Metro Council will take up the issue next at its zoning advisory committee meeting on Nov. 20.

Hi all,
I found an announcement for these cable adapters on Dpreview:
They are developed by Richard Franiec and are available for the NX200, the LX-3/LX-5, the D-LUX 4 and 5 and the DP1 and DP2. It looks very compact, I really like the idea and the engineering. His website his here: http://www.kleptography.com/rf/
I wonder if I might be able to do something similar for my Canon G7s... hot shoe covers are easily available, and I could use plastic, metal or wood to cover the release button.
if you have ideas on how to do it, please share them on this thread!

Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has said that President Barack Obama supports gay marriage because he believes all people should be treated equally under the law.
Schultz, a representative from Florida, made her remarks in a Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) appearance as the Democratic National Convention gets underway in Charleston, where Democrats are expected to ratify a Democratic Platform which includes support for gay nuptials.
During the interview, Schultz was asked how the marriage plank will affect Democrats opposed to such unions.
"Well, applying the law equally – whether you're talking about marriage or anything else – is not a political issue. It's a values issue. It's an issue of principle and President Obama supports marriage equality because he believes that the law should treat everyone equally regardless of who you choose to love," Schultz told CBN.
"Now, of course, with religious institutions specifically, you know churches and synagogues and other ministries, that's a separate issue."
"Those religious institutions and religious leaders should continue to decide whether or not to recognize the kind of sanctity to recognize or not. But President Obama believes that the law should not treat people differently when it comes to civil recognition of marriage," she explained.

Rotary Young Musician 2011 - West of Scotland District Final - Thu Mar 10th 2011
2011 Young Musician Competition District Final
The West of Scotland District Final of Rotary's Young Musician Competition was held at the new Williamwood High School, Clarkston, Glasgow on Thursday evening 10th March 2011. In front of a full audience of parents, teachers, Rotarians and friends students from across the West of Scotland gave some magical and truly memorable performances.
Many congratulations go to Kilmarnock Academy's Gregor Keachie on winning the instrumental section. Another outstanding performance by this very talented young man just blew the competition away. Destined for great things to come.
Congratulations also to the winning vocalist, Fiona Joice, sponsored by Eastwood Rotary Club and a pupil at Williamwood High School. A truly remarkable, talented and assured vocalist. They both move on to the Regional Final (Scotland and North East England), likely to be held in Edinburgh towards the end of this month and we wish them well. For the resulting winners there is the Great Britain & Ireland final on 14th May in Bedford.
Jenna Campbell from St. Josephs' Academy also gave a great performance to be proud of, building on her performance at the New Laigh Kirk in January, but in the end was up against a really strong mature voice in Fiona. Well done Jenna and thanks for representing Kilmarnock. Perhaps next year?
This was Rotary's first venture into a District-wide musical competition in the West of Scotland and seems certain to go from strength to strength.
17th April 2011 update
Unfortunately Gregor was unsuccessful in his bid to reach the National Final of Rotary's Young Musician Competition but we thank him for representing Kilmarnock Rotary Club, himself and the town so well in the Regional Final (Scotland and North East England). We also wish him all the best in his future career.
However, Fiona Joice, representing Eastwood Rotary Club and Williamwood High School was successful in the Vocal Section and goes forward to the National Final to be held in Bedford in mid May.
May update
Many congratulations to Fiona who was placed second in our National Final, vocal section.

Be Active Your Way Blog
May is National Physical Fitness and Sports Month! This month, organizations, schools, worksites, and communities across the nation are celebrating the benefits of being physically active, and the strides we've all made to help Americans move more. During May, take some extra time to enjoy the fun and excitement of being physically active with your friends, coworkers, and family.
How are you or your organization recognizing National Physical Fitness and Sports Month? E-mail us at email@example.com if you would like to contribute a blog post!
The home and community environment can set the tone for a healthy lifestyle for children and adolescents. This is particularly true in the area of physical activity. Parents and caregivers can be role models in their levels of activity and also support community activities that encourage regular physical activity and make it fun.
To foster that notion, the Section on Pediatrics (SOP) of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) recently hosted their first annual conference in Orlando, Florida. The conference provided 3 days of educational programming and networking focused on a lifespan approach from neonatal and infancy through the young adult, including fitness and sports participation within the community.
An exciting element of the conference was the coordinated participation in the Walk Disney World Marathon Weekend Events.
The SOP instituted a fitness challenge, "GOOFY FOR EXERCISE" which encouraged children and adults of all age groups and abilities to be "Goofy for Exercise!" The challenge went out to all SOP members and the community to train for a 5K, half marathon, or full marathon. Team Members (many who were first timers) met in Orlando the weekend of January 8 – 10, 2010 to participate in the event.
More than 50,000 runners (including their family and friends) passed through the SOP booth at the health fair to retrieve their race packets. As an exhibitor, the SOP provided fitness literature that included APTA's Fit Teens and Fit Kids magazines and "Fit for Life" stuffed toy bears.
This event supported three key messages:
Presently the SOP envisions "Goofy for Exercise" as an on-going campaign/training event, involving more families and coordinating with other small pediatric charity groups. We plan to identify several diverse fitness events and health fairs throughout the year to "encourage exercise for all."
The SOP and the APTA also have a number of current and future resources for children and families that encompass all ability levels. These resources can be found at: http://www.pediatricapta.org/consumer-patient-information/index.cfm.
Potential Future "Goofy for Exercise Events" inlcude:
We are on the way to more fun stuff!

Do you plan on joining the SOP "Goofy for Exercise" Challenge at one of our planed events?
What event will you plan in your community to be "Goofy for Exercise?"
