I see that a few stores are getting ready for a sale… How thoughtful! Just when I am thinking about shopping…
You've got to love it here: very young and BoHo (oh NoNo!) but there are a few key pieces that I have snooped and found that would even suit me of a certain age. Well we all love to find great fashion pieces at a price, non? (You have to wonder where the strict Gothic black and sharp Balmain inspired looks are when that's the hot look all over the runways for next season). Best buys are:
- The floppy dark blue denim elastic waist harem pants. How does that sound for scary? Not really I promise you. They have an elastic hem and a self belt. Wear with heels and a chic blazer to add a little sophistication. Anyway these are so trendy in the best sense of the word that you should pay $79. Then check out the 80's chambray bomber jacket too $129 ( but don't wear together).
- Love the simple grey marle V neck Tee; is there anything easier to wear than this? It's a must have for summer and you can throw it under everything. $29
- Buy the black silky harem pants with side pockets. Again why pay more for the hot look? As I have so often told you it's about wearing harem pants with heels or you will be looking like you missed the plane to Turkey. They are surprisingly comfortable which makes up for the killer shoes. $99
- Love the white vanilla leather jacket. Yes, that's correct it's a white leather jacket. Only for special people who can carry it off. It has an asymetrical silver zip and then 2 zips on the pockets. This would look chic with creams and browns. Or when you are cleaning the puppy in the mud. $199
- Buy the very lazy and cool check man-style shirt with rolled up sleeves: there is something a little Marc Jacobs about it. Good for the beach. $79
- Check out the faded skinny jeans with elastic hem on the ankle: tres cool, $99. Looks new don't you think? And that ladies and gentleman is what fashion is all about. (Otherwise we would be wearing bustles and long dresses and corsets).
- There are Chanel quilted inspired bags everywhere: For teenagers: they are the only ones who can carry off such a blatant copy. Bless $69.
- There are so many cute flats and gladiators….
- Love all the jewellery the cuffs, the necklaces, the rings and the cute sequin clutch $49.
Forever New
This store has some great pieces if you have a good snoop! Some of it is a little on the cheap side but they have some cool on-trend pieces. Oh and I do see cobalt blue and I think I am going blue looking at it… My picks are:
- The simple grey marle V neck loose dress with wide kimono sleeves: it's very Duro Olowu (the Nigerian London based designer who first did these dresses years ago). It has seam cutting under the boobs if you know what I mean. It has silver beads along that seam and it looks like a very flattering shape: a great summer basic dress to dag around in $69.
- You want the chic grey marle cotton blazer with cute turn up sleeves where you can see the must have stripe lining, $79. It's so cheap but chic. Wear over a white tank, a stripe Tee and with short shorts or just with jeans. Of course you could try it wit your fav peg leg pants. Or even over a dress when it gets a little chilly.
- Love the black sequin tank: it only has sequins on the front which I don't mind. The back is black rib and I like it that the sequins are matte. Sequin tanks are everywhere but you knew that. They are also turning up on the runways at the shows. Meaning? The trend just keeps on going next year… wear with everything and especially during the day. $69
- For another version of the sequin tank buy the shiny black all over sequin tank. This one is in a looser shape so it will skin over muffin tops and floppy bits sitting on top of jeans. The best news? There is $20 off $89.
- Love the black cotton jersey top with cut out shoulders with 2 straps: it has cap sleeves as well. It's a loose shape with black beading along the top but it's tres subtle. Don't be afraid of beading or sequins, just make sure you don't glitz them up. Or you could look tacky. It's called a Chloe top so it's probably inspired by Chloe wouldn't you say? $89
- There are also a lot of rainbow print maxi dresses which are Ok too if you want colour.
- In accessories there is a fab black matte glomesh slouch pouch: it's a croissant shape, just the thing to toss over your shoulder. $59
- Check out the shoes: the bejeweled flat lace up gladiators in black silk are not bad at all for $69. Wear them, love them, thrash them.
- Buy the special black sequin heels with a peep toe and simple pump shape. Not a gladiator tough shape? What's going on? If you go for black go for some texture shine or glitter to take it to another place. Another fashion place… $109
- Buy the metal cuffs $14 and simple silver bangles $19 and drop earrings $14 and the cute Trilby in silver or bronze with black trim $24.
Looking very summery, relaxed holiday dressing here. There are a few more fashion pieces and some great caftans for the beach. My picks are:
- The blue and white tile print caftan. It's for the beach or the pool. It has a wide square shape with a V neck and very loose, sitting on the knee which we love. There are short dresses everywhere which is very annoying. I don't want to show anything above my knee. Good on you Sussan. If you want shirt get out the scissors! $89
- Love the pretty white cotton sun dress with shoe string straps and cut origami pleating detail at the front. The top is square straight across and then is a loose skirt from the waist down. This is a good thing. White is a big colour (or no colour) for summer. It always looks fabulous $79
- Buy the navy and white abstract print silky dress/caftan with white jewel beading at the V neck. It's knee length as well and perfect beach wear. Please don't wear caftans wandering around shopping. Unless you live in Port Douglas. $79
- Check out the baggy shorts in floppy denim: they are simple with no obvious stitching and have a self belt. Shorts are hot hot hot for summer and we love them with heels and a tailored jacket. You can wear them with black opaque hosiery until it gets too hot. Then it's about applying the ModelCo Tan $69
- Check out the fabulous navy and white stripe cotton T-shirt dress. I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago and I see it's still instore so grab one of you can: Love it. It has navy ribbon drawstring halter and cute little front pockets. This is a great summer dress. $59
- You want the black singlet maxi dress: it's the most basic Tank singlet shape and so chic in its simplicity. Who said you had to wear bright colours and weird shapes? Pas Moi! Think French, think understated chic, think cheap colours looks cheap. Just add some fashion sandals and stack the bangles and cuffs up your arm. $109
- Buy the simple oversized boyfriend cream/concrete linen jacket: it's very floppy and I think you may need a big more structure to hold the bits in. Or add shoulder pads. When you wear abig jacket like this you need to show of skin to try a mini or shorts or just don't bother. Stick a sharp shoulder jacket. $119
- Buy the dark almost black shimmer slinky silver tank: it has a scoop neckline but you can hide that under a jacket. Love a little metallic something in the wardrobe. Wear with grey or other silver. $49
- Perhaps you are over size 14? Then try the boyfriend jeans here with a rolled hem. They are cool and fit well so shut up and don't be a snob about designer jeans. $89
- Everyone needs a white cotton grandpa shirt with front big pockets. Also to the knee. Wonders will never cease. $69
NB! Cheap But Chic of the week : I must share with you! A friend of mine, über fashion photographer (and the chicest person I know ) Juli Balla, is selling some of her amazing collection of designer accessories, bags and clothes at Kirribilli Markets on Sat 26th Sept: First in, best dressed!
Business Class:
Wittner Shoes
There are heaps of monster platforms here but here's a question: I want to know who is wearing then? I like a platform and a gladiator but I don't see a lot of people wearing those outrageous heels… Tell me if you are? Best shoes are:
- The 'Jacinta' black patent platforms with a skinny heels. It has 2 wide straps that cross over the front giving a peep toe. So no gladiator cankle choking here. This style will make your legs look longer. Yay! It has a sling back and a big platform so they should be comfortable, $169. Thank the lord.
- You want the simple sling back pumps with a pointy blunt toe and a hidden platform; a hidden Harry Potter platform. They look chic but still stomp-a-licious with a thin heel and in simple plain black. Yes please we all need a basic pump. $149
- Love the black lace up multi strap peep toe sandals: it has a thin heels and the lace up is a hit look going into next season. $169
- Buy the fabulous black patent flats with a chic wide criss cross plaited front and not so gladiator-ish. They have a slight tiny little wedge heel that you couldn't even rate as a heel, $119. Also in snakeskin: love it.
- Love the black patent wedges which I bought last year: So comfortable I thrashed them and wore every day til they fell apart. They are black patent with multi gladiator straps and T bar. The wedge is not too high and it has a tiny platform which makes walking and shopping a dream. Every store I went into last summer they said "I love your shoes". Bless. Wittner has re-released them and I think I will be tempted again.
- Buy the fabulous "bullet" plain black pumps with punched holes and brogue spectator details on the square toe: they also have small lace detail on the toe. Very next winter now on sale $99.
- The Balenciaga style black and nylon and leather heels which cross over all the way up the ankle. It's as if they have cuts out everywhere with a thin heel. Called Electric. You will be. They have a zip up the back. This means no struggling with laces and buckles when you run out the door in the morning. Or when you are trying to take them off and George Clooney is calling… then again you can always leave on… outrageous! $169
I like the fashion direction here: seems to be less boring office pieces and more edge and fashion. No BoHo NoNo here thank god. My picks are:
- The cool navy blue sequin tan: it has a drape front and has black grosgrain straps, $179. Of course it's also in black and silver sequins which I prefer. This is pretty glitzy and not your regular matte sequin tank that you would normally layer over a white Tank. Definitely one for wearing at night with jeans and your sharp shoulder jacket.
- Love the over the top black jacquard single breasted fitted blazer with serious shoulder pads, $379. It is very sharp and has big shoulders but you can do it. All you need is the fierce shoes. Oh and some pants (or you can do a Lady GaGa and go without if you so desire.)
- There is a very sexy and tight black satin sheath dress with great shoulder pad details. It has a wide neckline and a snazzy silver exposed zip down the front $239. I think it's slithery. Add heels. Breathe in. Don't eat.
- Buy the very simple black grosgrain cotton sleeveless dress: It's fitted to waist and has wide bra safe straps. Love that it flares out over the hips and the bits very nicely and it has its own belt. A little 50's style. It's about structure and giving shape this will suck everything in. $278
- Love the black simple Tee with an interesting origami silk trim along the neckline: it's a fabulous Tee that is not scoop! Heaven. Sits very nicely at the neckline. There are a few versions and it's $49.
- Yes, it seems sporty luxe is still lurking after all these years! You want the silver nylon short zip bomber here with a grey marle lining. The idea is that you would wear that with peg leg pants and heels. It's the reverse of wearing grey marle track pants with a serious tailored blazer. You wear sporty jackets with chic pants or pencil skirts and heels. Not for jogging. Go to Target for that. $209
- Also checkout the fabulous black chiffon crepe sporty zip jacket. It has a black zip and a drawstring bottom and a cute hood. Perfect for weekends to throw on when you feel too dressy with a blazer. $159
- There is an outrageous gold leather corset and other over the top jacket. Oh la la very Louis Vuitton!
- Love the red dresses, the white dresses and the tres cool accessories: You want the very Balenciaga jeweled over the top jewel bracelets, and the faux snakeskin black fold over zip clutch. My favourite? The feather shoulder pads!
On sale! Always great here for jewellery. My pick are:
- The amazing limited edition necklaces: Love the "45cm solid jet acetate torque, with a 10cm extender chain, and combines pearls, cotton pearls, silver ceramic beads and chains 1 of 75 on Earth." $449. Wear with jeans, wear with a clean chic white shirt, wear with a grey marle tank. Dress down the glitz. Keep it understated and never wear earrings or bracelets when you have a big glamourous statement necklace. You want the focus on one area or you will get confused. (And the Gin and Tonic will do that.)
- The chic de la chic Limited Edition Stalactite Necklace is another cool number: they say it's reminiscent of underwater caves and the treasures of the deep. I say just wear it during the day with a tee shirt $399. I hate underwater caves! Can't get our hair wet.
- Love the silver "polished and delicate Nouveau Drape Necklace" They say it's "pewter and Swarovski crystal jewels, chandelier cut crystals, and silver plated brass chains" Chic. See instructions above. $329
- In the shoes you want the black suede stud heels called Addicted to love. You will be. They have a cone heel and T bar front with a gladiator style ankle buckles, $399. Apparently you can remove the ankle strap which is good news if you have cankles or just don't want to do the outrageous monster shoe look. Clever thank you Mimco. Two for the price of one.
- In flat sandals try on the tan brown T bar sandals with red beading and brass studs on the T bar, $179. Also in a black or silver. They have an ankle strap too. These are instant wardrobe updaters.
- You should check out the ballet flats in red or black patent called Seak easy loafer. Speak easy probably because you can relax when you are not wearing painful Monster heels. Ouch. Speak easy because you have had a few too many Gin and Tonics. Anyway these easy to wear shoes have a pointy toe which is cute and a beetle buckle on the toe. Love the elastic side and they have a padded sole too. Fabulous. Padding? What will they of next? $249
- My favourite in the bags is the black "Une" bag. It's very Pierre Hardy inspired with an outside pocket, 2 handles and a black patent trim $499. A basic black bag is always worth buying. Add red shoes.
- And for a casual messenger bag buy the Viking satchel: it's a square shape with black rope trim, eyelet details and a long strap, $499. Perfect for tossing across the body and being handsfree! Makes eating easier.
First Class
It's London Fashion Week! The best collections were Burberry and Christopher Kane.
"Leave it to returning label Burberry to close London Fashion Week's 25th anniversary celebrations with a bang. Christopher Bailey presented a Prorsum collection to thousands of his followers, and then hosted the LFW party to end all parties — and did we mention the clothes were possibly the most beautiful Burberry collection ever?" said Vogue UK
Style.com reports, "A shining, silver paillette-encrusted trenchcoat sparkling on the runway as metallic confetti rained down: This is the memory London fashion week will have of its 25th anniversary-and the Burberry show that ended it. There was more young glamour per foot here than the city's ever witnessed in a front row. Emma Watson was present, and so were Gwyneth Paltrow, Mary-Kate Olsen, Victoria Beckham, and Daisy Lowe; Freida Pinto and Dev Patel were holding hands. And every piece Christopher Bailey showed could have been worn by any one of them: The message was Burberry gone short, draped, deluxe, and glamorous, and aimed at the very young.
Returning from Milan to London could have meant a wallow in heritage nostalgia. Not a bit of it. Instead, Bailey brought all the high-gloss international production values he knows back to his home city, and made sure the label's history-namely, the iconic trench-looked alive and relevant to the 18- to 25-year-olds in the audience. From the fashion point of view, the reinvention of the beige, military-inflected coat is perfectly timed. Not only are tones in the range of camel and nude spot-on for the season, but military references are cropping up in many places as well.
Bailey's way of developing it had nothing to do with anything as dull as the English weather. All the emphasis was on building up a glamour shoulder, with a tied reefer's knot on the upper outside edge of each arm. All kinds of sexy tulle draping, meanwhile, were worked into what went on below. Having neatly scooped up those trends (along with a passing pastel moment), Bailey took pleasure in teasing out yet more possibilities. He showed some of the incredible techniques and fabrics Burberry has access to, like silvered gabardine and sliced suede made into hot leggings. In the end, though, this show may be most significant for the way in which it closed the gap between a public and private fashion event. In the front row, Paltrow, Pinto, and Patel were wearing pieces from the outfits that were walking the runway. And at Burberry's flagship in the center of London, the show was being Livestreamed to the public."
"Pretty yet perverted, innocent yet disturbing-with its gingham chiffon, fan pleating, puff sleeves, and thigh-split dresses, Christopher Kane's Spring collection walked the fine line between good and bad taste that has made his clothes such a phenomenon. The repetition of the central idea — complex, pieced dresses with inserts of pleats; pastel pink, baby blue, and navy or brown checks; bra cups; and panels of white rose-beaded embroidery — became relentless, mesmeric.
At 27, Kane has already developed his own way of building emotion in a room. This time, it was to the compelling, melancholy sound of gospel and spirituals — such an odd choice that it had members of the audience pushing backstage to find out what was going on in his head. "I saw a documentary about the Jonestown mass suicides in Guyana in 1978, so I started thinking about religious cultism," he said. "But that only happened at the end. I was also looking at a photo of Nancy Reagan on the White House lawn, and the movie Lolita. I loved Jeremy Irons' tailored vest in the remake. So that's where the suiting came from."
Putting aside whether Kane's view of America will stir up a furor, the product, in all its detail, is quite brilliantly produced. That goes as much for the slash-shoulder cashmere sweaters and checked crop tops as it does for the dresses, which are made in London. That precision, and the whiff of something disturbing running under the charming surface of this collection, means Christopher Kane has scored yet again." Reported Style.com

"Highly recommended"
Without sounding like a kid on Christmas morning, the Dowelmax is perhaps one of the best jigs I have ever used, for any task. ... Dowelmax jig has restored my faith in the possibility and usefulness that dowel joints offer. I have never seen another dowel jig that is as accurate, as simple to use and as uncomplicated as the Dowelmax system. The precise engineering of the system is something other jig makers should really be ashamed of. I can certainly recommend this system with my highest praise. It is solid, it has proven to do what it says it will do, and it is great fun to use."Perfect joints with the Dowelmax"
As I looked it over, my first thought was that it had a fit and finish more like an aircraft part than a woodworking jig.... I can't think of many tools that can do as much or as well for a comparable cost."Best doweling jig we've ever used"
The Dowelmax doweling jig is... dead-on accurate and a breeze to use.5 STARS OUT OF 5!
You can't beat this Dowelmax system for ease of use, speed, strength, accuracy, and totally precise joints - Bob Feeser (Springfield, PA)About Us Links Link

Wolverines ignite a Bottom 10 house party
WEEK: Preseason | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | Final
The Bottom 10 inspirational thought of the week:
Watch out. You might get what you're after
Cool babies strange but not a stranger
I'm an ordinary guy
Burning down the house
Hold tight. Wait 'til the party's over
Hold tight. We're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house
Here's your ticket pack your bag: time for jumpin' overboard
The transportation is here
Close enough but not too far, maybe you know where you are
Fightin' fire with fire
All wet, hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown, dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees
Burning down the house
-- Talking Heads, "Burning Down The House"
Tradition holds a special place in college football. From the winged helmets to "The Victors" to the Big House, Michigan has its share of tradition.
The Bottom 10 also holds its traditions dear. Losing to a Division I-AA team always ensures a first-class ticket to our rankings.
Step on in and enjoy the flight, Wolverines. Appalachian State called to confirm your reservation on Saturday. While the Mountaineers are the two-time defending I-AA champs, rules are rules. That trip from No. 5 in the preseason AP poll to No. 5 in the Bottom 10 was a quick one, huh?
But the Wolverines weren't the only ones. Rice lost to I-AA Nicholls State to join Michigan in the rankings. The Bottom 10 also made room for another longtime power. Sure, Georgia Tech is good, but a 33-3 home loss to the Yellow Jackets made Notre Dame a logical choice for No. 10. Plus, that move could set up an extra fluffy Notre Dame-Michigan pillow fight on Sept. 15.
This week's pillow fight's not a bad one, though. Buffalo travels to Temple in what could be a Bottom 10 instant classic.
Florida International and Duke, our preseason Bottom 10 favorites, did not disappoint and remain at the top of our rankings. However, there were some other changes. Since Appalachian State burned down the Big House, other house songs will guide us through the latest edition of the Bottom 10.
Have a comment about the Bottom 10 ranking? Send us your thoughts.
So, with apologies to Steve Harvey, here's the Bottom 10:
ESPN.com's Bottom 10 | ||||
1. | FIU | 0-1 | "Beach House on the Moon": The Panthers might want to move to Jimmy Buffett's fictional place after their very real 59-0 loss to Penn State. | |
2. | Duke | 0-1 | "House of Love": Maybe Amy Grant's vocal stylings will ease the pain of 21 straight losses. Or maybe the fear of being paired with Amy Grant again will inspire Duke to a win. | |
3. | North Texas | 0-1 | "Step Inside This House": Todd Dodge's fellow Texan Lyle Lovett sings about life's little treasures. Dodge must be looking for any after OU hung 79 on the Mean Green in his opener at UNT. | |
4. | Rice | 0-1 | "House of the Rising Sun": The Animals sing about a house in New Orleans. The I-AA guys from Nicholls State in Thibodaux, La., were doing the singing against the Owls. | |
5. |
Michigan |
0-1 | "Burning Down the House": While Appalachian State didn't actually burn down the Big House, we're pretty sure the Talking Heads (and their radio talk show brethren) in Michigan are doing so this week. | |
6. | Directional Michigan | 0-3 | "Our House": With apologies to Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, our Bottom 10 house is a very, very fine house with Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan and Western Michigan back in the yard. | |
7. | UAB | 0-1 | "House of Broken Dreams": This second CSNY tune captures the mood of the Bottom 10. The Blazers' 55-18 loss to Michigan State prevented a 0-for-the-state-of-Michigan Saturday. | |
8. | Buffalo | 0-1 | "This House is on Fire": AC/DC has been rockin' the nation for decades. The Bulls, who lost 38-3 to Rutgers, have been burnin' up the Bottom 10 for years. | |
9. | Temple | 0-1 | "House of Fire": Alice Cooper sings about "buildin' a house of fire every time we touch." The Bottom 10 feels the same way about the Owls, who lost to Navy, 30-19. | |
10. | Notre Dame | 0-1 | "Life in a Glass House": The Irish would be smart to listen to Radiohead's lyrics: "Don't throw stones." No making fun of the Wolverines for you. The Irish suffered their most lopsided season-opening loss in history. |
Waiting list: Idaho (0-1), Iowa State (0-1), Mississippi State (0-1), SMU (0-1), Syracuse (0-1), Syracuse's uniforms and Virginia (0-1).

Interest in Classics is currently enjoying a renaissance, thanks in part to modern fictional characters such as Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, whose creators were inspired by the classical past.
Behind this literary phenomenon are compelling academic reasons to study Classics. Students in the Classics department can learn how to read Classical and Medieval Latin, Classical and koine (New Testament) Greek, and Biblical Hebrew. They study the civilizations that were foundational for the Western world in literature from Homer to Boethius, law, medicine, architecture, science, history, religion, theater, the fine arts, and much more. The interdisciplinarity inherent in the study of the Classical world enables students to gain a broad base of knowledge and critical thinking skills, which are excellent preparation for the current labor market as well as for lifetime learning.
We offer our students the advantages of a private setting in the public sphere through individualized attention, a rigorous curriculum, multiple opportunities for study abroad, an active program of undergraduate research, and a committed faculty engaged in outreach, teaching and research.
Learning goes beyond the classroom, whether students are involved in Latin teaching internships in local schools, in peer tutoring for Latin and Greek students, in undergraduate research, or in investigating local historical and environmental issues through the Ancient Gardens/Archaeology Club.
We welcome visits from prospective students, and invite you to sit in on a class, meet current Classics students, and discuss the Classics program at UNC Asheville with members of the faculty.
Artisans and Craft in Ancient Etruria
A Symposium in Honor of Dr.Nancy De Grummond
June 23, 2013
2012 Archaeological Field School for UNC Asheville Students
Mid-May to mid-June 18. Imagine yourself stepping back in time 2,500 years ago in the land of the Etruscans. You see before you a workshop of artisans skilled in cutting gemstones, metalwork, ceramics, and other arts. Nearby is a sanctuary dedicated to mysterious Etruscan deities with cisterns, votive pits, and altars. Up the slope are Roman baths and Medieval walls from later phases of occupation at the site. Imagine yourself bringing more of this amazing site into view as part of the archaeological team.
The 2012 Archaeological Field School will include students from UNC Ashevile, Florida State University and New York University, who will explore the Etruscan sanctuary and artisan workshop at Cetamura del Chianti in the heart of Tuscany. Students earn course credit as they learn all aspects of field excavation techniques from methods of discovery and recovery, to documentation, the creation of site plans, and interpretation of stratigraphy. For information about how you can become part of this team, contact Dr. Laurel Taylor at email@example.com or 828.251.6290.

President's Annual Report to the Members
September 15, 2011
In a year of great uncertainty and many pressures for all of us, PRPD has achieved a great deal with our limited resources and staff. Our budget is based almost completely (90%) on membership dues and conference revenue – a fact that keeps us independent, accountable only to our members. It also risks the vicissitudes of your available resources so we are heartened by the strong, continued support of the membership. We take it as an indication that our services are meeting your needs but as always, actively seek your input when we miss the mark or might be able to improve.
For those who like their reports brief, here is a list of the projects, beyond our normal services, that we successfully implemented in the year since our last conference:
Strategic Planning
Each year the PRPD board holds a retreat in January to set the organization's program for the year ahead. The result is documented in our updated Strategic Plan. In addition to a more detailed and timed action plan (which we are monitoring quarterly), we updated our Vision Statement and added "Core Values" for our organization as follows:
Mission Statement
Public Radio Program Directors (PRPD) is public media's principle advocate for content. PRPD exists to support the role programmers play in providing the highest level of service to their audience. It leads, trains and provides resources to program directors, content managers and other programming decision makers including station staff and producers.
Vision Statement
To create the future for our industry. It all starts with content.
Fundamental Core Value Statement
We inspire creativity and innovation with integrity in order to achieve continuous improvement in public service.
In the current economic climate, we have been very fortunate to maintain steady membership levels over the past several years. While some stations have had to drop membership for budget reasons, many have returned very quickly after resolving their budget issues. Station consolidations continue to be a challenge to our membership model – one membership per organization - resulting in minor erosion in our member count. However, because dues include an NFFS calculation, we are on still on track for a slight increase in net membership revenue in 2011.
New and rejoining lapsed members since the last conference:
KMFA, Austin
WAER, Syracuse
WUCF, Orlando
WYPR, Baltimore
WMSE, Milwaukee
Elizabeth Gomoll, Roseville, MN
KPBS, San Diego
WICR, Indianapolis
KSJE, Albuquerque
Angel Livas, Washington, DC
KOSU, Stillwater
Richard Shere, Weston, MA
Our financial situation remains very positive, with our midyear (July 1) balance sheet essentially equal to the same time last year. Having more than met our goal of having the equivalent of 1 year's budget set aside for unanticipated emergencies, the PRPD board has carefully allocated a small portion of our surplus to achieving some of the initiative listed above. Since the bulk of our revenue comes in during the last third of the year, this has given us greater flexibility to act without risking the bottom line.
In FY 2010 (calendar), for example, we allocated about $75,000 from the reserve for projects but with strong revenue ended with a small ($9,000) positive balance. This year we project approximately $20,000 surplus, again after allocating $25,000 from surplus to special projects to invest in the Programming Survey.
Public Radio Technology Survey
This past year, PRPD assumed sole sponsorship of the PRTS project after partnering with NPR and iMA for the first two studies, This resulted in a much deeper interaction with Jacobs Media in design and presentation of results better adapted to ease of use. We greatly increased the amount of data shared with participating (paying) station and adopted more user-friendly infographics in the report. The rapidly changing digital environment revealed the overwhelming impact of mobile technology, music services (particularly Pandora) as well as the big increase in adoption of digital by older public radio listeners. Non-participating PRPD members also saw the results in a webinar and materials are available in the member section of our website.
In April, we held our first new MEGS workshop - in Tampa at WUSF. We have another scheduled in November in Las Vegas (at KNPR). While MEGS originally focused only on local Morning Edition presentation, we recognized that the principles apply more widely. Therefore, we have expanded MEGS to include Middays and All Things Considered. The Tampa workshop included at least one ATC host.
In addition, while not within the definition of "local news," we are discussing how a similar approach might serve music stations - many of the principles apply across format. Network Researcher Convening
Last year, we reported an initial meeting with researchers from APM, PRI and NPR. We held one more of these meetings in December – adding a participant from the RRC and BBC. Again, we view this as a long-term effort aimed at sharing the sometimes overlapping or complementary efforts that often go unshared in the pressures of daily demands and in light of proprietary considerations. Not focused on short-term concrete actions, our goal is to maximize information sharing and help avoid unnecessarily duplicative efforts – as well as keeping PRPD up to date with knowledge as it is developed. Once these relationships are more firmly established, we hope to slowly bring other research players into our conversations as well. We also see this as valuable to PRPD's contributions to public radio's evolving relationship with Arbitron through the Public Radio Arbitron Team.
As indicated in the Strategic Plan, we remain dedicated to keeping content and the role of programmers at the fore in all public radio conversations. PRPD continues to participate not only with programmers but also in regional meetings, other conferences, both in our system (i.e. PMDMC, AMPPR, iMA, PRNDI, NFCB, NonCommvention) and outside (i.e. SxSW Interactive, Arbitron Client meeting, Radio Ink Convergence). Through the big transitions at NPR, we have continued our collaborations and we continue to engage all of the networks at the programming level. PRPD has been part of the 170,000 Million stakeholder group and continues to be part of the Public Radio Arbitron Advisory Team.
As many of you know, we sadly lost our long-time conference planner, Peter Hamilton, to cancer this summer. The loss of his accumulated knowledge made the transition to a new planner rough but we feel back on our feet – with appreciation for extra effort by Dan Jensen, David Hollis and our new planner, Ellen Maiara. We also contracted more detail work and have worked to make the conference committee process less onerous on our board members. We believe that the results speak for themselves. Always striving to improve, we recognize that we've been fortunate to receive overwhelmingly positive reviews for recent conferences. We take seriously the challenge: "How are you going to top this one?" Hopefully, we have succeeded.
Respectfully submitted,
Arthur Cohen, President, PRPD

C-ICAP Classify is a module that allows classification (labeling) of Web pages, images, and soon video based on content. Labels are placed in HTTP headers. Any PIC-Label META tags are exported into HTTP headers. This allows for creation of very flexible filters according to rules defined by the user, using the ICAP enabled proxy's ACLs. It is not a URL filter, so implementing it with sslBump or similar proxy technologies makes it very difficult to bypass. Text classification is done using Fast Hyperspace (based on Hyperspace from CRM114) and/or a Fast Naive Bayes. Image and video (when implemented) use haar feature detection from the OpenCV library.
The Assimilation Monitoring Project is a highly scalable discovery-driven monitoring system. It integrates continuous discovery of servers, services, service dependencies, switch connections, and lots of other things into the monitoring process. The discovery is "stealthy" and will never set off any network security alarms. Adding servers doesn't measurably increase monitoring load, and the system is expected to easily scale into the 100K server range. The discovery work is distributed among all the nanoprobes (agents), which run scripts that spit out JSON. The central system (CMA) stores these strings and runs optional plugins to create graph nodes.
The NSCA-ng package provides a client-server pair which makes the Nagios command pipe accessible to remote systems, with per-client passwords and fine-grained authorization control. This allows for submission of passive check results, downtimes, and many other commands to Nagios (or compatible monitoring solutions). Check results of arbitrary size and multiline plugin output are supported.
Andrisoft WANSIGHT is a fully featured network traffic analyzer and collector. It provides in-depth traffic analysis, traffic accounting, and bandwidth monitoring, and enables you to generate complex traffic reports, graphs, and tops, instantly pin down the cause of network incidents, understand patterns in application performance, and make the right capacity planning decisions. It supports 10GbE packet sniffing and NetFlow, sFlow, and IPFIX.
dabba is a set of distributed network monitoring tools for Linux. Its main use is to gather or scatter actions on a network such as traffic capture, replay, generation, or monitoring. It was inspired by the Dabba Walla system in Mumbai where meals are regrouped and dispatched throughout the city with a high efficiency rate, every day of the year. The project has three main components: libdabba, a low-level zero-copy network library, dabbad, a multi-threaded task manager and IPC query processor, and dabba, a CLI for communicating with dabbad and submitting tasks.
wmpower+ is Window Maker laptop power management dockable application. It displays the battery status, the number of fans or the fan speed, and CPU temperature, and allows you to switch the power management status of some laptops. It is based on wmpower by Michele Noberasco, which doesn't work with the new kernels starting from 2.6.36.
The ServerUsage system collects and processes statistical information from computers running a GNU/Linux Operating System. It is composed of two subprojects, the ServerUsage-Client to collect usage statistics (via a SystemTap module) and send them to a remote server via TCP, and the ServerUsage-Server to collect all statistics from different clients and aggregate them in a SQlite database table. A PHP Web service is available on the server module to extract information or display graphics.
Collax Business Server is an all-in-one Linux server for small- and medium-sized businesses. It delivers all the important network services within a heterogeneous business environment for communication, infrastructure, compliance, groupware, and storage, all in a reliable and secure way which is easy to manage. It also provides essential security functions such as firewalling and virus and spam filtering, to protect against hacker attacks, viruses, and unsolicited email messages.

The term "wedding hair" may conjure images of updos, but that's not all it can mean. Under the care of the Up Do's and Eye Do's team, it can be whatever you want, from half-up, half-down styles to a chic blowout or ringlets for a flower girl. Audrey, the team's lead hair stylist, crafts a diverse array of just such wedding-appropriate hairdos. While she tends to locks, her business partner Cindy—a makeup artist and licensed medical aesthetician—subtly enhances the wedding party's features with products from MAC, Bobbi Brown, and Smashbox.
While the duo's main focus is on weddings, they also style clients for other special occasions and introduce kids to the joys of the spa experience. At their children's birthday parties, little ones get their hair and makeup done and even get to wear clip-in hair extensions, a more practical and temporary hair-extending alternative to wearing hats full of Miracle-Gro.

Carr of Dickson was arraigned in Dickson County Circuit Court Monday on charges of arson of a place of worship, burglary and theft for the May break-in and fire at the New Hope Baptist Church at 910 Highway 47 East. Investigators say Carr smashed a glass rear door, stole about $5 from a cashbox and set fire to the church's kitchen and dining area. He was indicted for the break-in in December as well as for charges of aggravated assault and theft for allegedly using a razor knife to steal a woman's purse in September. Judge Larry Wallace appointed the public defender's office to represent Carr and set his trial for June 10 before Judge Robert Burch. An appearance date for pretrial motions was set for March 15. Carr remains in the Dickson County Jail with bond set at $15,000. New Hope Baptist Church was able to resume holding services within days of the fire.

positioning molding
have made some progress on learning how to fit the molding against the siding by practicing with a jigsaw and getting a feel for the tool. everything pictured is probably going to come down since it was more for practice, and I didn't have an 8' piece to work with. If I can clean this up and join two pieces I may keep it.
cut some of timbron molding for practice. these are 3 1/4 wide and tapered on the right side. don't have a nail gun so i will have to countersink all of the nails. they look like this. http://tinyurl.com/2g8ayf6 here is a larger view. http://tinyurl.com/2en4bqa while doing this, one thing i realized i was not 100% sure of was the positioning of the molding. when i looked in my house, the tapered side of the molding is on the inside, so that is how i positioned the molding. i found a picture of a door with two side windows, and i guess i am going to imitate this layout with the molding, not a 100% sure. Example http://tinyurl.com/2awqodf here is an earlier pic of what I have. http://tinyurl.com/3397n9q should I use the same molding on the 3 inches of wood on the left side of the door. if so, what direction should the tapered side of the molding go? |

Musicians against malaria John Legend and Melinda Doolittle. CGG
The vibrant American Idol veteran Melinda Doolittle sang a gorgeous rendition of Amazing Grace last night to a room full of benefactors at the Millennium Promise & Malaria No More annual benefit to raise money and awareness to end global poverty and malaria. The young singer has traveled with Malaria No More to Zambia to distribute life-saving bed nets and to raise awareness about the disease.
The crowd dined under what looked like the world's largest bed net, where giant swaths of blue gauze decorated the ceiling of the Tent at Lincoln Center, Damrosch Park. The dinner honored four men who have been tireless in their work for these organizations: Raymond Chambers (Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Malaria), Peter Chernin (President and COO, News Corporation), Professor Jeffrey Sachs (Director, the Earth Institute at Columbia and Special Advisor to the Secretary-General of the UN) and George Soros (Chair, Soros Fund Management and Open Society).
Millennium Promise believes that for the first time in history, we can cut global poverty in half by working with impoverished communities, partner organizations, and local governments to address the major causes of global poverty in their millennium villages: from inadequate education and disease to lack of safe drinking water. And what separates them from other organizations is a deadline they have placed on this powerful goal: 2015, bringing what was once unforeseeable into a very tangible project.
Malaria No More has one mission: to end deaths from malaria. While we've known for a century how to beat this disease, it still takes over a million lives per year. Yet the solution is simple: cost-effective prevention tools and treatments.
Music icon John Legend presented the award to Professor Sachs. The musician is the founder of the Show Me Campaign [1], which raises awareness and money for Millennium Promise goals. He said that he first discovered Sachs' work after watching him on the Comedy Central's Colbert Report, where he was promoting his book, The End of Poverty [2]. John was compelled by his words and by his energy.
"I read End of Poverty and I was so inspired by the vision that was laid out in the book, the fact that if we decide that we want to do it, then we can really do it."

This past week I gave a lecture to a group of Innkeepers and Restaurateurs in Maine on Reputation Management. With all the numerous posts and information out there about protecting your business online from malicious reviews or reviews by unhappy customers, little thought is sometimes given to two other areas.
One, what is your local chamber or business association saying about you offline. and two, what are your employees saying about you online?
What are your employees saying about you online?............... Do you really want to know? Yes.
For this lecture I found two employees on twitter making comments about their workplace and about guests, one identified directly where they worked. Imagine if a potential or repeat customer saw something online? Heaven help the restaurant where an employee posts something like, "Just saw rats in the basement at the Jane Doe Restaurant," and then it gets picked up by someone and RTed (Retweeted or passed along) by someone with a bunch of followers. Or seen by the health inspector.
While you probably don't want to directly follow employees on twitter, you can put them on private lists so they don't know you are "following" them so to speak.
Facebook is another area where you should be monitoring, if possible, what is said online. While it's definitely not kosher to ask for employee's user names and passwords, the majority of people do not lock down their personal information, photos and wall.
Once you are logged into Facebook, you can see about 80% of what's posted online. I am not suggesting you stalk your employees, but if you have a potential problem child in your employ, it doesn't hurt to be careful.
What you don't want is another Damian Cardone on your hands. If you have not ever heard of Damian, just Google him, not very hard to find out what the issue was. The sad after effects of this were that the restaurant he worked at suffered because of it, and ended up having dozens and dozens of negative reviews posted about the situation, many by people who had never even eaten there.
If your restaurant or facility belongs to a chamber of commerce, do you even know if they are recommending you?
I gave two examples in my lecture on this topic. Last year an inn and restaurant I work with up in New Hampshire, had recently seen his phone referrals drop significantly in the past months. He was curious to find out why. I ended up making about 7 calls to the chamber office during different times of the day and different days of the week and spoke to several different people. (I do great accents). None of them recommended either the inn or the restaurant, even when pushed on the matter. They recommended his direct competition (one a chamber member and one not) on all enquires.
It turns out the inn and restaurant in question had been kind of a pain in the tuckus to the executive director, asking about why the chamber doesn't do this and why they should be doing this and why are they not. So the place got blackballed.
The other example I used, was an inn that somehow, a rumor got started that the couple running it was breaking up, and the inn would be going up for sale. Neither of which was true, but the local chamber office was telling people who called, "Oh lovely inn, great hosts, but I hear they are having some issues there and may not be around for long". Way to kill reservations methinks?
Do you really know what your local chamber is saying about you?........ Even if you are not a chamber member, people do still ask and want feedback. I know this for a fact having volunteered part time in one of my local chamber offices for several years.
Reputation management goes beyond just social media, including to vendors. A wise business listens and needs to find out for themselves what's being said about them, because if an issue happens and you only hear about it 3 months later, it's generally to late to put out the fire.
Most Hotels and Restaurants do not know how to play hardball with respect to Reputation Management.
In my previous career I spent 11 years as an Expert Witness I was cross examined by dozens of trial lawyers and learned a thing or two along the way that I have applied since.
Obviously if the comments you see online are true then you can not play hardball. But if they are malicious, you can first advise the reviewing site why they are false and ask them to remove them or you will sue. If they don't do anything a low cost way of getting results is to advise their Web hosting company that you will sue them for allowing slander. Usually the host then emails their review site client and asks them to comply or else the host may drop their account. Faced with having their account dropped, usually you get lightning fast results.

Letters to the Editor
County needs to focus on business, not prayer | Letter
William Burnett's letter to the editor regarding Kelly Emerson's wishing to start the commissioners' meeting with prayer shows precisely why it should never have been proposed.
1. There's no good reason to change the status quo. The civility Emerson wishes the prayers to bring should already be a matter of course.
2. It creates unnecessary controversy and takes time away from more important matters.
3. It wastes taxpayers' money.
I would like for the commissioners to focus on county business.

It was a wild-and-wooly one round heavyweight bout that had to satisfy the cravings of the most rock 'em sock 'em robots violence nut out there. Cheick Kongo survived at least three apparent kill shots from Pat Barry then suddenly came back to stop Barry with a pair of right hands that sent Barry to the mat out cold.
Kongo took no chances and followed Barry down for a few more punches to the face before referee Dan Miragliotta finally jumped in to stop the carnage.
UFC on Versus 4 results: Cheick Kongo defeated Pat Barry by strikes (KO) at 2:39 of round 1.
Barry abandoned any sense of caution or self-preservation and charged in with his hands down low at his sides. Kongo seized the opportunity for one of the most amazing come backs in recent MMA. Two hard right hands caught Barry on the side of his head and the second one finished him.

TITLE and INTRODUCTION:
"The Alchemist" authored by Paulo Coelho is an unforgettable novel about dreams, omens, treasures, courage and essential wisdom of listening to our hearts.
"The Alchemist" follows a story of a shepherd boy 'Santiago', who, when embarks on the journey of finding a treasure, makes a similar journey into depth of his own heart.
Santiago, an ordinary shepherd boy, has a recurrent dream about a treasure. With some help from Gypsy woman and Melchizedek (King of Salem), he realises message in the dream, and then makes a biggest decision, which will eventually change his life forever; he decides to listen his inner calling and to pursue his dream.
So Santiago sells his sheeps, sails to Tangier, is tricked out of his money, regains it through hard work, crosses the desert with a caravan, meets alchemist at oasis, reaches the pyramids after confronting setbacks & tests of time and eventually earns not only treasure but a timeless wisdom also.
"Alchemy" simply means transformation from impurity to the purest matter. The real alchemy here, however, is the transmuting of youthful idealism and enthusiasm into mature wisdom and patience. Santiago sees transformation in himself as he learns many lessons of wisdom from his own heart, other people, nature, omens and the alchemist himself.
Author states that "to realize one's destiny is a person's only obligation." Through central theme as well as side stories, author tries to explain difficulties and obstacles that come up as we pursue our dreams. He also demonstrates how people fall into traps that seem to be too simple.
First obstacle is ignorance of inner calling and adherence to people's expectations of you. Second is attachment to comfort zone and resistance to change. Third one is fear of defeats. Final but fatal obstacle is realization of destiny itself, as people tend to think they are not worth what they have... [continues]

Well keeping up. Really crazy week at work. Getting back at my regular schedule next week.
So the days just keep churning by - very busy with clients on the phone all morning, now having lunch, then doing treadmill, then conference call, then an offsite meeting... Ready!
Marathon day today, and not the running kind... already completed 24 minutes on treadmill in hotel, 176 calories burned, heading to client breakfast next, then all day meeting until 4, then dinner... Up for it and ready.
Realizing just how much travel takes out of me... just now back in my hotel room after a long group dinner, organizing for tomorrow's activities. Feeling good, and accomplished, but looking forward to SLEEP :)
