Making Lists in Scribus
You might as well know from the start: Making bulleted or numbered lists in Scribus isn't as easy as in the average word processor. In fact, compared to LibreOffice, Scribus as installed is downright primitive in the way it handles lists. You can pull a script off the Internet to automate to an extent, but chances are you'll have to tweak it before it does exactly what you want.
Creating a list manually is straightforward, but tedious. You want numbers? Insert them one at a time, and repeat whenever you need to renumber. You want bullet points? Go to Insert -> Character -> Bullet, or, if you want a character other than a plain bullet, to Insert -> Glyph -> Hide/Show Enhanced Palette, and copy and paste as necessary. Then, in both cases press Tab and start typing.
In both cases, you should create a list paragraph style to control the indentations in the list. Go to Edit -> Styles -> New -> Paragraph Style -> Tabulators and Indentation, and adjust the First Line Indent and Left Indent fields, using both positive and negative numbers, until you have the spacing you want. Usually, you want a negative indent for the first line, so that the number or bullet is indented from the margin, and a positive number for the left indent. The trickiest part is adjusting the left indent so that the subsequent lines align with the first -- a matter of trial and error that varies with the font.
Introducing Bullet.py
You can remove much of the drudgery of manual list creation by using José Antonio Meira da Rocha's Bullet.py script available on the Scribus site. Scroll down the page to the script, and copy and paste it to a text file, saving it with a .py extension, since it's a Python script.
Before installing it, you will almost certainly want to make some changes. For one thing, the script references the Dingbat and Wingding fonts for creating bullets, which your GNU/Linux installation is unlikely to have. More importantly, the Unicode glyph the script refers to is a checkbox with a shadow, which is almost certainly not what you want for a bullet.
Search for the variable bulletedListCharFont and replace it with a font on your system, such as the Symbol font used by LibreOffice. Similarly, search for the variable bullet string, and replace the default glyph with t
he one of your choice. You can browse the available glyphs by highlighting a selection in Insert ->Glyph -> Hide/Show Enhanced Palette dialog, and adding the last four characters of its code to the script. After some experimentation, you may want to replace the default 0 in the variable bulletedListCharSize as well.
I also recommend searching for the indent field and altering the default value of 22 points. That's nearly a third of an inch, which is far more than you are likely to need unless you are deliberately mimicing the look of a typewriter's output.
If you want a selection of bullets, you can make several copies of the script, each suitably named so you can find it quickly.
After you have finished your hacking, log in as root and transfer it to /usr/share/scribus/scripts. You might also want to save a copy of the script elsewhere, since the script's page warns that updates might remove it from the scripts directory.
Using the Bullet.py Script
To use the script, either select the paragraphs you want in the script, or else place the mouse cursor anywhere within a text frame to add all its paragraphs to the list. Then run the script by selecting it from Script -> Scribus Scripts.
Calling the script opens a small dialog window with an input screen on the bottom. Select * (asterisk) to add a bulleted list, a starting number, or an upper or lower case letter, optionally followed by a character such as a period or parenthesis, and press the OK button to create the list.
Reapplying the script with a different input will update the text frame. Alternatively, inputting a forward slash (/) will remove any bullets, numbers, or letters.
Selecting any of the list options that the script offers will create a corresponding paragraph style if one does not already exist in the document. Just as with manual list creation, you can adjust the indentations in this style to your liking.
Once you have tweaked everything to your liking, save the current document as a template, and you will never have to worry about making these adjustments again.
Limitations of the script
I consider Bullet.py a basic necessity for any regular user of Scribus. However, it is not a complete solution for anyone used to the convenience of creating a list in a word processor.
For one thing, the script doesn't support Roman numerals, although from a quick scan of the script, you could probably add the support relatively easy by using existing sections of the script as an example, even if your knowledge of Python is as limited as mine. I mean to explore the possibility, but haven't got around to it yet.
For another, the script still leaves you with no way of automatically updating ordered lists if you decide to insert a new list item between existing ones. Instead, you have to select the list and run the script again.
Nor is there any support for a list within a list, although you could create a paragraph style with the extra indentation for the second level list.
Yet, despite thse shortcomings, Bullet.py is considerably better than nothing. Still, if anyone gets around to improving it before I do, let me know, and I'll mention your improvements after I try them.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

March 15 2014 BOOKLIST
January 2014
Find more The Back Page
Since I'm flat-out unable to come up with something to write about today—my University of Oregon Ducks lost to Stanford last night in overtime, and I'm still grieving—I'm going to rely on the works of others to fill up my 850 words. Thankfully, Ben Segedin, Booklist's production director and a super-savvy Internet surfer, keeps a file of Back Page–worthy tidbits at the ready for moments like this one. Drawing on the Ben Files, I see that while I was fretting about college football, there has been a lot going on in the book world. Here's what's new:
National Book Awards
A quick shout-out to Louise Erdrich, long one of my favorite fiction writers, for winning the National Book Award for Fiction for her splendid novel The Round House. But my favorite recent story about the National Book Awards doesn't have anything to do with this year's event. On November 2 in Slate, Benjamin Hedin posted a fascinating piece called "Scandal at the National Book Awards." It turns out that when Walker Percy's The Moviegoer won the fiction award in 1962, there were cries of foul play, not only because his obscure first novel upset Joseph Heller's Catch-22 and J. D. Salinger's Franny and Zooey but also because of the way Percy's novel was nominated in the first place. Was the fix in?
The story is too juicy and multilayered for anything more than a brief précis. Legendary New Yorker writer A. J. Liebling was pissed at Alfred Knopf for not promoting one of his books, so when Liebling stumbled on The Moviegoer, published but also ignored by Knopf, he recommended the novel to his wife, Jean Stafford, who was one of the NBA fiction judges. Did Stafford strong-arm the other judges into voting for Percy, all as a way of embarrassing Knopf, who had recently fired Stanley Kauffman, Percy's editor? Gay Talese thought so and wrote a piece about it in the Times. Stafford denied a "conspiracy" right up to her death in 1979, and, of course, The Moviegoer has gone on to become a contemporary classic. But if husband Liebling hadn't recommended the novel to wife Stafford, would we even have heard of Walker Percy today? And if Percy hadn't become a major literary figure, he wouldn't have been in a position to help get John Kennedy Toole's Confederacy of Dunces published. So conspiracy or not, I say, well played, Mr. Liebling.
RIP Rushdie v. le Carré, Theroux v. Naipaul
I love a good literary feud, but I always feel a little bit melancholy when the warring parties agree to bury the hatchet. What fun is that? So the news, reported by Krishnadev Calamur on NPR's website, that Salmon Rushdie and John le Carré's 15-year spat had come to an end left me feeling, well, disappointed. The verbal jousting started well before the age of Twitter and was carried out the old-fashioned way, through letters to the editor, mainly in the Guardian. It began with le Carré grousing about critics who charged him with anti-Semitism in his novel The Tailor of Panama; Rushdie shot back with a letter wondering why le Carré hadn't been on his side when Satanic Verses was being held up as anti-Muslim. Opening salvos out of the way, it was time for hand-to-hand combat, with Rushdie labeling le Carré a "pompous ass" and le Carré following suit by portraying Rushdie as guilty of "self-canonization."
Ah, but now it's all over, with both parties making nice and bemoaning that the whole thing ever happened. Similarly, the Guardian also recently reported on the cessation of another 15-year-old feud, this one between Paul Theroux and V. S. Naipaul, who had been sniping at one another on the most personal of levels ever since Theroux accused his onetime friend of being a racist and a misogynist.
There is one piece of good news, however, for those, like me, who relish misbehavior by literary figures. Naipaul may be buddy-buddy with Theroux now, but he's landed himself in an even bigger mess by claiming in an interview that no woman could ever be his literary equal. I think this one has legs.
Faulkner v. Allen
A note to all you living literary legends out there: be very careful who you appoint to manage your literary estates. Greedy relatives and quick-drawing lawyers may do more to undermine your reputation than a new generation of revisionist critics. Take William Faulkner. Lawyers for his estate are trying to sue Woody Allen for using that oft-quoted Faulkner line about the past not being past in the film Midnight in Paris. Check out the Independent, November 18, for the full story. Faulkner's estate is claiming that Allen should have asked permission to use the phrase, and they are also pissed that Gil Pender, the hero of the film, slightly misquoted it. Really? Thank heavens Shakespeare doesn't have any literary executors trying to sue everyone who misquotes the "Alas, poor Yorick" line.
I suppose I shouldn't be angering the Faulkner estate. Booklist could be next. A quick search tells me that we've used Faulkner quotes dozens of times in our reviews and features, including the line about the past, the one about prevailing not enduring, and the one about poets not being interested in facts. The quotes have always been attributed to Faulkner, of course, but we've never asked for permission. That's what fair use is all about. The guilty parties, by the way, include me, Ben Segedin, and John Green, a thirtysomething literary legend in his own right. When the Faulkner police comes calling, I'm hiding behind John.

I have never been to Laos but I have a Laotian friend when I lived in the Bay Area. I remember one of the potluck parties at the office, she prepared a delicious grilled chicken that got me hooked. The chicken was marinated with lemongrass and the fish-sauce dipping sauce was so delicious I got a second helping of the chicken. I never asked her for the recipe.
A few months ago, when my copy of Food & Wine Annual Cookbook 2012 arrived, the lemongrass cilantro chicken immediately caught my eyes. The recipe headnote states that the chicken is called pings, or simple grilled dishes that are very popular all over Laos, and that the lemongrass cilantro chicken is a great example of pings.
I immediately earmarked the recipe and made it over this past weekend. While I can't say that the recipe is exactly what my Laotian friend made, but it was pretty close. The taste and flavors are what I remember: the aroma of lemongrass, the fragrance of cilantro leaves, and the sweet, savory, sour, and pungent dipping sauce. I just love it.
I styled the photos almost identical to the magazine. Serving on a sheet of banana leaf, drizzling some of the dipping sauce on top of the chicken pieces, and top them off with some mint leaves and cilantro leaves. The dish is as pleasing to the eyes as it is to the stomach.

Biography (Dictionary of World Biography: The 19th Century)
Article abstract: Balzac's novels, assembled under the collective title The Human Comedy, form a literary monument composed of some ninety-five works, with more than two thousand characters, which provides a comprehensive survey and analysis of French society and culture at all levels during the first half of the nineteenth century.
Early Life
The son of a peasant, Bernard-François Balzac had risen in society to become the head of the hospital administration and deputy mayor of the town of Tours. His wife, Anne Laure Sallambier, was the daughter of an affluent merchant. At the time of their arranged marriage, he was fifty-one and she was nineteen. Perhaps understandably, the eccentric elderly husband and romantic (but soon bitter) young wife both engaged in extramarital affairs and were not always devoted parents. When their son Honoré was born in 1799, he was sent to a wet nurse and was joined two years later by his sister Laure. After spending the first four years of his life away from his mother, he lived at home until he was seven (though even during this period he attended boarding school and was only brought home on Sundays). At the age of eight, he was sent to the Collège de Vendôme for five years, partly to get him out of the way while his mother had a child by another man, during which time he later claimed never to have been visited by his parents. Many of his biographers see his perception of this early neglect, especially on the part of his mother, as one of the reasons that several of his early love affairs were with older women. These relationships, many of which developed into friendships that lasted for decades, may in turn account for the many portraits of strong, intelligent women in his novels.
Balzac studied law for three years, a knowledge of which later became useful to him as a novelist, but after passing his law examinations in 1819 he announced to his family his determination to become a writer. Despite their apparent coldness, his parents generously agreed to support him for a two-year trial period, during which he lived in a fifth-floor attic in Paris and wrote a five-act verse tragedy on Oliver Cromwell. The experiment was a failure, never produced or even published during his lifetime, but Balzac was committed to his new vocation and merely resolved to turn from the theater to journalism and novel writing to support himself.
He produced a series of novels under various pseudonyms over the next several years, all written in haste and many in collaboration with other hack writers. During this time he also borrowed large sums of money, much of it from his mother and mistress, to establish himself in business, first as a printer, then as a publisher, and eventually as a typefounder, the beginning of a lifelong series of business failures. As a result of these speculative ventures as well as of an always extravagant lifestyle, he was heavily in debt throughout his life, despite a considerable income from his writing in later years.
Life's Work
In 1829, Balzac published Les Chouans (English translation, 1890), the first of his novels to have lasting merit and, significantly, the first published under his own name. Indeed, for his next novel, La Peau de chagrin (1831; The Magic Skin, 1888), the first of his masterpieces, he even embellished his name by the addition, before his surname, of the particle "de," a sign of nobility to which he was not entitled by law or birth. It is a sign of the esteem of posterity that his name has since been written invariably, if technically inaccurately, as "Honoré de Balzac."
As a result of the pressure to earn money created by his constant condition of indebtedness, Balzac's literary output reached staggering proportions. In the twenty years between 1830 and 1850, the period of his maturity as a writer, he produced some ninety-five novels, featuring more than two thousand characters, as well as several hundred short stories, essays, reviews, and plays. Even more remarkable than the sheer quantity of his work is its remarkably high quality. All but a handful of his novels are of the first rank. Balzac was able to produce so much good work only by virtue of his tremendous physical and mental vitality.
Balzac would begin a typical working day at midnight, when his servant would knock on his door to wake him. He always worked in a long white robe, similar to a monk's, at a table with candles, blank paper (of a slightly blue tinge—so as to tire his eyes less rapidly—and with an especially smooth surface that would allow him to write as quickly and effortlessly as possible), an inkwell, and several raven's quill pens. He never used any notes or books, having already fixed everything in his mind before writing. Balzac would then write for eight hours with no interruptions except for preparing and drinking large quantities of strong black coffee. At eight, he would have a light breakfast and a bath and send the night's work to the printer.
The composition of a novel had only just begun for Balzac at this stage. At about nine o'clock he would begin revising the proofs of the pages he had written the night before. His emendations and additions were often much longer than the text he was correcting, and he therefore required that his galleys be printed on large sheets, with the text occupying only a small square in the middle. After he had completely filled all the margins with scribbled changes, he would...

Biography (Censorship (Ready Reference series))
As a young man, Balzac attended the Sorbonne, where he acquired a life-long and passionate devotion to literature. He published his first successful novel, Les Denier chouan, in 1829. This event marked the beginning of an extraordinarily prolific literary career in which he produced over ninety novels and short stories. His masterpiece was La Comédie humaine, a long series of novels that contained many of his finest works, such as Eugénie Grandet (1833) and Le Père Goriot (1834). He also wrote and produced plays, several collections of poems, and several works of literary criticism. Early in his career, Balzac produced a number of sensational novels under pen names. Although he could never be described as a subtle or delicate novelist, his heavy use of tiny details helped to portray the lives of ordinary people realistically. Attention to detail, combined with his unbounded energy and passion for life, allowed Balzac to create a vast and exciting panorama of life in early nineteenth-century France in his novels.
Embedded in this panorama was Balzac's determination to expose the evil and venality that he believed permeated French society during the early nineteenth century. He was never troubled by censorship during his lifetime—largely because his political views did not conflict with those of the various regimes that held power—however, his realistic exposure of human foibles upset the guardians of public morality of the late nineteenth century. The Roman Catholic church placed his complete works on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, despite the fact that Balzac had never been as hostile toward organized religion as many of his French and European literary contemporaries. In fact, he regarded organized religion as necessary to hold society together, and criticized it in his work only when he believed that it failed to meet his exalted standard. In the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries the governments of many countries, including Russia, Canada, the United States, and Spain temporarily banned selected titles from his long list of novels. Explicit sexual content and overt political criticism in his work did not prompt these actions. It was Balzac's frequently unflattering portrayals of the upper echelons of French society that upset his various censors.
Biography (Critical Survey of Short Fiction, Second Revised Edition)
Honoré de Balzac grew up in a bourgeois family in Tours, then moved with them to Paris, where he completed his undistinguished education—he was apparently too much of a dreamer to perform well in classes. Working as a clerk in law and financial practices and attending the Sorbonne lectures of Victor Cousin and François Guizot in the evenings led him to develop an abhorrence for the mundane existence of the salaried working class. In 1819, he suddenly announced that he intended to become a writer, and there followed years of misery as he eked out his living in rented attics, existing like a hermit by extraordinary economy and by producing a flood of anonymous cheap tracts and novels. Although his family hoped that these conditions would bring Balzac back to his senses, unyielding patterns were formed instead, traits that would continue for the rest of his life. His prodigious energy, combined with a strong will, established his daily regimen of writing—often twenty hours, nonstop—which he sustained by his own blends of coffee. His penniless existence helped whet his appetite for financial success to the degree that he was often tempted to embark on the most elaborate schemes to make his fortune. It was not that his ideas, such as forming a publishing company that would produce inexpensive copies of the classics, were unsound; in fact, his notions were far ahead of his time. His sense of management, however, as well as his choice of partners and financial...

Biography (Critical Survey of Long Fiction, Fourth Edition)
Honoré Balzac was born in Tours, France, on May 20, 1799, of bourgeois parents. He was to acquire the predicate of nobility—the name by which he is known today—when, in 1831, in tribute to his official commitment to embark on the writing of The Human Comedy, he dubbed himself Honoré de Balzac. This change of name is symptomatic of Balzac's lifelong craving to be an aristocrat and to enjoy the deep respect and the want-for-nothing lifestyle that accompanied that status.
The eldest of four children, Balzac was treated very coldly by his parents, who entrusted him to the care of a wet nurse for four years, then sent him to board with a family of strangers for two years, and finally had him attend...

Biography (Critical Survey of Mystery & Detective Fiction, Revised Edition)
The eldest of four children, Honoré de Balzac was born as Honoré Balzac on May 20, 1799, in Tours, France, where his father was a high government official. His mother inculcated in young Honoré a taste for the occult and for Swedenborgian metaphysics. After his early studies, distinguished only by the breadth of his reading, Balzac attended law school while auditing classes at the Sorbonne.
Although Balzac was graduated in 1819, he rejected a legal career and decided instead to write plays. His first work, a verse tragedy about Oliver Cromwell, was judged a failure by friends and family. Undaunted by their verdict, however, Balzac began writing penny dreadfuls and gothic thrillers under various pseudonyms....

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Honoré de Balzac (BOL-zak) was born in Tours, France, on May 20, 1799. His father, Bernard-François, was a government official of peasant origin. His mother, Anne-Charlotte-Laure Sallambier, from a family of similar background but higher status, was twenty-two years younger than her husband. Honoré, the first of their four children, felt closest to his sister Laure in his childhood and early youth. Educated at boarding schools, he was a voracious reader and showed an early interest in philosophy. In 1814, the Balzac family moved to Paris.
From 1816 to 1818, Balzac attended the Sorbonne, studying law and...

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Honoré de Balzac is an almost pure example of the creative impulse at work. Founded in the author's broad knowledge of society, his characters grow, interact, and pursue their trades as if they had a life of their own. Balzac acknowledged their autonomy, which he believed was limited only by the basic laws of his lifelike world. While a higher justice occasionally intervenes in Balzac's world, it is primarily human choices that determine the ironic course of the myriad individual lives in The Human Comedy.

Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Honoré de Balzac (bahl-zahk) was born Honoré Balzac in Tours, France, on May 20, 1799. His father, originally from the peasant stock of the Albigeois, had risen to become director of commissariat to Napoleon's 22d Division. In 1799, Napoleon was returning from Egypt to rule for fifteen years over half of Europe. Thus the first years of Balzac's life passed during the glorious reign of Napoleon, and the emperor's career had a great effect on the young Balzac's mind.
From 1807 to 1814, Balzac was a student, first at the Collège des Oratoriens in Vendôme, then at L'Institut Lepître and L'Institut...

Biography (Short Stories for Students)
Born in southwestern France in 1799, Honore de Balzac was a man whose temperaments and habits were perfectly suited to the changeable and exuberant age in which he lived. After completing his early education at boarding schools, Balzac studied for law and worked in a notary's office in Paris. Meanwhile, he was also studying literature at the Sorbonne. With his parents' somewhat reluctant support— they paid for a garret for him—he tried his hand at writing. This period, 1819 to 1824, produced a number of unsuccessful and undeveloped philosophical and literary works, but it also proved to be a valuable apprenticeship.
Around the time Balzac was finding his novelist's voice, he also formed the first in a series of close relationships with women from whom he received warmth—and sometimes passion, critical response, and the gift of insight into the female psyche. Balzac met Laurie de Berny when he was 22 years old and she was twice that. Their love affair lasted eight years, but their friendship endured until her death in 1836. He also formed a close, if platonic friendship with a schoolmate of his sister, Zulma Carrud, from whose military officer husband he gathered material about life in the Napoleonic campaigns. The third woman to influence the developing novelist during this period was the Duchess of Abrantes. From her, he gathered entertaining anecdotes on life inside the Imperial court and was introduced to the salons of nobility, which would be reproduced later in La Comedie.
After a period of newspaper and hackwork necessitated by financial need, Balzac finally published his first literary worked, Le Dernier Choan, which would later become the first volume of La Comedie Humaine. This book, though commercially unsuccessful, impressed the literary establishment with its rich rendering of details from ordinary life and its fully drawn characters. ''La Grande Bretèche,'' first published as in a volume of La Comedie Humaine title Autre Étude de Femme, or Another Study of Women in 1842, shows the full flowering of the new Romantic Movement in Balzac's fiction.
Balzac died a newlywed in his Paris apartment in August of 1850. Despite humble origins, constant financial difficulties, and his irrepressible appetites, he left behind an impressive and lasting literary legacy. His rich personal life informed his fiction, which is still read today.

I bought "Jilted" today (08/16/13) at the Ulta at Deptford, NJ, after experimenting with many colors on my hand. I am very pale, with coppery colored hair and blue eyes, so I need to be mindful of works for me. I wanted a punchy color, but not too much. I put it on at 3PM, and by 8PM, it was still there, without bleeding, fading or transferring to my teeth. I am so happy that I went with "Jilted". I love it!!! I wonder which will be my next color to buy….
I'm only just getting into high-end makeup and had basically thought that paying 15 bucks for a MAC lipstick was expensive enough. However, Urban Decay hasn't let me down yet so I figured I'd try out these new lipsticks. I got this color and F-Bomb (which might be my new HG red lipstick because holy WOW, it's such an awesome rock star red color) and they are so worth the cost!
I wanted a color somewhat like MAC's Candy Yum-Yum but not in a matte finish and Anarchy looked close. It's definitely a super vivid bright blue-pink. The lipstick is so pigmented in only one sweep–and that one sweep soaks every inch of your lips in color. I've always had trouble with getting color in the fine lines of my lips but this lipstick has no problem with that. Because of this, the lipstick does actually succeed at its claim that it makes your lips look fuller. There's no scent or taste as far as I can tell. The color also lasts for a really long time without killing my lips.
I will say that though I love the packaging and size (it looks classy and feels appropriately heavy), I'm not a huge fan of the shape. I've got a very defined Cupid's Bow and the round shape makes it hard to color in that area without also coloring in the little divot between the Bow. I suppose that that would be easy enough to fix with a lip brush.
End of the story is that this lipstick is AWESOME.

Tired of high-tech lipsticks that suck all the moisture out of your lips? Us too! So we created an addictively luxe formula with insane color payoff. Urban Decay launches Revolution Lipstick, a classic, creamy formula you'll love wearing—with the signature Urban Decay pigment-rich color you rave. This is rich, buttery lipstick at its best—intense pigment plus creamy shine. You'll love EVERYTHING about it, from the act of applying it to the way it feels on your lips. Revolution Lipstick applies smoothly (without dragging or skipping) and hugs your lips. And the pigment load is amazing! Just one swipe gives you a BIG laydown of color.
Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick ($22.00) is back with a new and improved formula (as well as packaging). Urban Decay's bringing back lipstick, and they're doing in in a major, major way with twenty-two shades from bold, bright, and wickedly vibrant to soft, subdued, and natural. The formula is creamy, lightweight, and glides on with nearly full color coverage in a single pass. They wear anywhere from four to seven hours, with some leaving behind a stain for another one to two hours. The lighter shades tended to wear around four hours, while deeper and bolder shades lasted an average of six hours. The creamy consistency is comfortable to wear but doesn't bleed or feather, while the formula itself is moisturizing. I didn't detect any scent or flavor! This post focuses on the red and orange shades within the range.

Nigel Short simul on a tennis court
Two talented juniors from Hendon Chess Club were the heroes of the evening as chess Grandmaster and World Championship candidate Nigel Short took on 47 players at the Middlesex University Real Tennis Club on 15th February. The play took place on the court itself, with spectators watching from the galleries.
By Adam Raoof
The unusual (probably unique) venue for a chess event drew favourable comments from all the participants and spectators. Thanks to the British Chess Educational Trust for a grant which enabled us to be in such a prestigious location.
Before the start of the simul organizer Adam Raoof explains the rules to the children
Juniors Joseph Levene (b. December 1996) and Isaac Sanders (b. May 1998) both scored highly creditable draws, with Nigel beating all the other contenders. Petr Vachtfeidl from London's Metropolitan Chess Club was the first person to enter the event and the last to finish, and Nigel couldn't beat him in an opposite coloured bishop endgame. The player who travelled the furthest to play Nigel was certainly Newcastle's Zheming Zhang (Jesmond Junior Chess Club) the reigning British Under 8 and 9 Champion.
And off we go! Nigel Short would play 47 games in total
There were two simultaneous displays, one for juniors (20 players) at 4.30pm and a mixed simul (20 players) at 8pm. Between displays Nigel gave a talk, and while he took a well-earned break International Master Lorin d'Costa went through the games for the audience.
The evening was organised by International Organiser and English Chess Federation Director Adam Raoof, who also works at Middlesex University, as part of Nigel's 2011 UK tour. It was covered live on the internet by Tryfon Gavriel ('kingscrusher') on his blog.

Thanks to Ged Eden and Matty from MURTC for the superb venue, and for looking after us all evening. Nigel's Score final score was won 44, drew three, and two of those games were against juniors from Hendon Chess Club.
this doesn't look like a tennis court to me. rather like a squash court. in the dutch newspaper 'trouw' i read five minutes ago an article about too little women in chess. the writer seems badly informed about the situation in chess. on the accompanying photo tennis star ana ivanovic, in fact she is caroline wozniacki. http://www.trouw.nl/nieuws/sport/article3435657.ece/Vrouwelijk_schoon_zo...

Dr. Pat Zezula retires after 37 years of service to HU
Huntington, Ind.—After 37 years of service to Huntington University, Dr. Pat Zezula has decided to retire.
"It has been a privilege to work at Huntington, and I look forward to continue teaching on a part- time basis," said Zezula, professor of physical education. "I certainly appreciate the willingness of then President Dr. E. DeWitt Baker and Department Chair Dick Klopfenstein for their encouragement and the opportunity to begin my teaching profession at Huntington University. It has been interesting and exciting to be a part of the many changes that have taken place on campus during my tenure. I have fond memories of teaching in the 'barn' and remember the excitement of moving into the then new Merillat Physical Education and Recreation Complex. To students and colleagues — thanks for the great memories!"
Upon her graduation from Huntington University in 1969, the University hired Zezula as an instructor, assistant athletic director and coach. At various times during her first 15 years on staff, Zezula assumed head-coaching responsibilities of every woman's sport the college offered. In 1982, she was promoted to athletic director, giving her the distinction of becoming the first female intercollegiate athletic director in Indiana.
"Pat has been a significant part of Huntington University for more than one-third of our history and has greatly impacted our academic community," said Dr. G. Blair Dowden, president. "She has been a caring professor who has effectively taught and mentored thousands of students. She also has been a faculty leader and has served on most major committees, contributing to the growth and development of the institution. Most of all she has been a friend to numerous individuals in the HU family. We will miss her faithful, dedicated, and long-term service."
Zezula has distinguished herself with 37 years of service as a member of the college's faculty. She began as an instructor in the Department of Physical Education in 1969 and moved up through the ranks, becoming a full professor in 1990. Zezula earned her Ed.D. in educational administration from Ball State University in Muncie, Ind.
"In thinking about Pat, the first thing that comes to mind is her dedication to providing a good learning experience for the students and one who cares deeply for the well being of Huntington University," said Connie Updike, assistant professor of recreation management. "Her leadership has been evident in many areas of the campus throughout her years of service. Colleagues of other colleges and universities throughout the state and Midwest have recognized her for her commitment, dedication and leadership in the promotion of the physical education profession. Former students continue to correspond with Pat and share what they are doing in their lives. An occasional campus visit or email conveys their appreciation for her and the interest that she had in their education and development. I appreciate the opportunity and friendship that I have had in being a colleague of Pat."
In addition to serving on numerous committees within Huntington University, Zezula has served as chair of the PE Department since 1981. In 2002, Zezula received the Honor Award from the Indiana Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. The Honor Award is the "highest recognition for outstanding service to the association." She has published a book on children's physical activities in elementary schools, and she is involved in state and national associations in health, physical education and recreation.
"We will certainly miss Pat's presence, wisdom and experience and are grateful to her for all she has done at Huntington," said Dr. Norris Friesen, vice president and dean of Huntington University.

Walking the bases loaded is usually an awful idea. Hitters hit better with the bases loaded. Walking Matt Holliday to get to Jon Jay, for example, usually isn't smart. It creates too much of an advantage if the pitcher falls behind.
So Ron Washington put Magglio Ordonez on to load the bases. Like, on purpose. He'd rather face Alex Avila with the bases loaded than C.J. Wilson face Magglio Ordonez with first base open.
Year | Ordonez PA | Intentional Walks |
2011 | 357 | 0 |
Odd. This hasn't come up before tonight. Also odd: Alex Avila is better than Magglio Ordonez. Maybe not last year or the decade before, but he's better now. He's better against lefties, and he's better against right-handers. He's better against starters, and he's better against relievers. He's better against goats, he's better on boats. He's better in the rain, he's better on a train.
And he's sure as hell better when hitting with the bases loaded than Magglio is with runners on second and third.
Aw, heck, I'm not too proud to avoid micro-splits when it supports my position.
Split (Magglio Ordonez) | PA | ||||
Runners on second/third | 11 | .111 | .182 | .111 | .293 |
Split (Alex Avila) | PA | ||||
Bases loaded | 16 | .333 | .375 | .444 | .819 |
Those are useless splits, but I want one reason. One reason. Just one good reason why you'd rather pitch to Avila with the bases loaded than Magglio with a base open. I'm a simple man. That's all I want.
And of course Avila's going to strike out after the rain delay to make me look like an ass. Better to be wrong early than pretend you were right after the fact.

Thread: Another leveling kit question
Another leveling kit question
I'm looking to level my 2003 1500 z71, no suspension just keys, found a couple kits for about $100 but I have heard good and bad things about the stress it puts on everything. Wondering if it would be better to do a stand alone level or if suspension would be needed too. Not looking to lift it up right now, just to level my front so i sit level. Any input? Also, does anyone know if leveling the front would fit 33's? from my understanding the normal tires are 31's if I'm not mistaken, and I have heard 33's will fit but might rub on the plastic underneath the bumper on the front. Being that I'm not a mathmajician and most of you guys are basically geniouses, could you correct or direct me? Thanks!

First of all I dont know where you heard anything about modifying your suspension, leveling keys only modify the torque on your torsion bars, thus raising the front end of your truck. Quite honestly, the have the Rough Country kit which is the one that I am going to use, it comes with 3" blocks for the rear, 2 keys for the front, and shocks all the way around to help with potential ride quality issues. I have heard nothing but good reviews about this kit as well!! And yes you will be able to fit 33's and as far as I know you won't have to cut plastics or make any further modifications to aviod rubbing. Hope this helps! Take care.
08-21-2012, 07:11 AM #3If you just want to level the front end then keys are perfect. Make sure to get longer shocks or shock mount extenders. Your factory units don't have enough travel. And make sure to have it aligned.
I don't know about fitting 33's. Height will be okay unless you do a lot of off roading where you will be looking for full suspension travel. I would be worried about rubbing (inside of tire to miscellaneous suspension component) when you turn all the way to lock. Just something to think about.2003 Suburban LT 2500 6.0L

Abstract: Prepared by Brian J. Fortman, MD, and Brian S. Kuszyk, MD, of the Department of Radiology, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, MD. CASE SUMMARY A 34-year-old man presented with vertical diplopia and a 6-month history of mild headache and intermittent vertigo. The pat
Prepared by Brian J. Fortman, MD, and Brian S. Kuszyk, MD, of the Department of Radiology, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, MD.
A 34-year-old man presented with vertical diplopia and a 6-month history of mild headache and intermittent vertigo. The patient had been diagnosed with and treated for sinusitis without improvement of his symptoms. In the 2 weeks prior to admission, he reported worsening of his headache and decreased visual acuity in his right eye. Laboratory analysis revealed a creatinine of 1.7 mg/dL and hemoglobin of 22 g/dL. Fundoscopic examination of the right eye revealed an elevated yellowish-red lesion compatible with a retinal hemangioblastoma. MRI of the brain was performed to evaluate the patient's headache and vertigo (figure 1). Renal imaging was performed to investigate the patient's elevated creatinine and polycythemia (figures 2 to 4).
Von Hipple-Lindau syndrome (retinal cerebellar hemangioblastomatosis)
T1-weighted gadolinium-enhanced MRI of the brain revealed a cystic mass in the right cerebellar hemisphere with a peripheral enhancing mural nodule (figure 1). Ultrasound of the kidneys revealed multiple bilateral renal cysts in addition to several solid-appearing lesions (figure 2). To further characterize the patient's renal abnormalities, a contrast-enhanced CT and an abdominal MRI were performed. CT of the abdomen showed multiple exophytic renal cysts in addition to bilateral enhancing lesions compatible with renal cell carcinomas (figure 3). Coronal T1-weighted MRI clearly depicts the bilateral upper pole lesions (figure 4). A heavily T2-weighted HASTE MR not only shows the obvious solid nature of several renal lesions, but also depicts a small cyst in the head of the pancreas (figure 5).
Von Hipple-Lindau syndrome (VHL) or retinal cerebellar hemangioblastomatosis is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous syndrome that exhibits incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity. The condition is linked to a defect on the short arm of chromosome 3 and has an incidence of approximately 1 in 40,000 live births. As with other phakomatoses, VHL may show considerable genetic heterogeneity and is inherited sporadically in up to 70% of cases. 1 The disease typically presents in the third or fourth decade and is characterized by cysts, angiomas, and neoplasms of the central nervous system (CNS) and abdominal viscera. The diagnostic criteria include the presence of multiple CNS hemangioblastomas, one hemangioblastoma plus a visceral manifestation, or one central or visceral manifestation in a patient with an affected first-order family member. 2 In addition to retinal and CNS hemangioblastomas, patients are predisposed to the development of visceral cysts, benign neoplasms of the epididymis and membranous labyrinth, as well as multiple renal cell carcinomas and pheochromocytomas. Rare reports exist describing multiple hepatic and pulmonary hemangioblastomas occurring in affected patients. 3
This patient had no known affected relatives and presented with symptoms initially attributed to sinusitis. His complaint of decreased visual acuity secondary to a retinal angioma is typical of patients presenting before age 40. Retinal lesions are found in 50% to 60% of patients and are multiple in one-third. 4 Angiomas are typically diagnosed by fun-doscopic examination and are occult on imaging studies such as MRI unless hemorrhage and sub-retinal exudate is present.
The patient's subacute history of vertigo can be attributed to the large posterior fossa hemangioblastoma. Cerebellar hemangioblastomas occur in up to two-thirds of patients with VHL and less commonly occur in the brainstem and spinal cord. The appearance of a cystic mass with an enhancing vascular mural nodule is typical. Lesions may be completely solid, however, and are multiple in 40% of patients. The main diagnostic consideration of such a posterior fossa lesion is a pilocytic astrocytoma; however, the patient's age, infratentorial location, and additional visceral findings strongly suggest an alternate diagnosis. This lesion was excised and confirmed to be a cerebellar hemangioblastoma. Subsequent genetic testing con-firmed the diagnosis of VHL.
Renal cell carcinomas occur in up to 50% of patients with VHL and represent the leading cause of mortality. This patient exhibited extensive renal involvement with multiple bilateral cysts and renal cell carcinomas, responsible for the elevated creatinine and hemoglobin on initial laboratory analysis. Compared with sporadic renal cell carcinomas, tumors developing in patients with VHL tend to occur on average 25 years earlier, are more often multiple and bilateral, contain cystic organization and low grade histology, have a better 10-year survival rate, and rarely metastasize before reaching a size of 7 cm. 5 These facts weigh heavily in the optimal surgical management of patients with multiple bilateral neoplasms, as in this case. At present, lesions < 5 cm with low cytological grade are managed conservatively in order to obviate radical nephrectomy. In family members of affected individuals, screening computed tomography may allow very small lesions to be detected and allow for partial or limited nephrectomy.
Pheochromocytomas are the second most common visceral malignancy in affected patients, occurring in up to 15%. It is the prevalence of these neoplasms that link VHL genetically and phenotypically to other phakomatoses (such as neurofibromatosis type I and tuberous sclerosis, as well as multiple endocrine neoplasia type II and isolated familial pheochromotosis). 6
In summary, the considerable phenotypic heterogeneity of von Hipple-Lindau syndrome, as well as the preponderance of sporadic occurrence, should be kept in mind when evaluating patients presenting with focal neurologic signs in addition to visceral manifestations. The correct diagnosis not only holds profound implications in the treatment of affected patients, but allows genetic testing and screening of potentially affected family members. The proclivity of patients with VHL to present in late adolescence and early adulthood results in the need for genetic counseling to address the mode and probability of autosomal dominant transmission.
Ongoing research continues to define the genetic mutations responsible for VHL and other phakomatoses, with the hope of some day providing gene-guided therapy as treatment for the neurocutaneous syndromes.
