Back to the future - that is exactly what the government needs to do.
For some of us, the shower is a personal sanctuary - the only place and time of the day to unwind and not be bothered by anything from the outside world. So why not make an exceptional shower the centerpiece of your next bathroom remodel? Utilize the latest in style - and even technology - to create the ultimate retreat.
DEAR BENNY: In a recent column you said that "a foreclosure by a first-trust (lender) will wipe out any subordinate liens." But that is not necessarily the case, is it?
STOCKTON - The California Rural Legal Assistance is holding a free clinic that will provide legal information to those who are at risk of eviction, foreclosure or housing discrimination.
When winter approaches, do you stow the grill and cover the patio furniture, wishing there was some way you could continue to enjoy your outdoor living space all year? If so, you're not alone.
Just as matching food with the right wine can elevate a simple meal to the level of a culinary experience, artfully pairing design elements in your kitchen can turn a utilitarian room into a chef's paradise.
Mountain House - ballyhooed as San Joaquin's first affordable housing community in the late 1990s when massive zoning changes were needed to make it happen - is anything but even four years into the foreclosure debacle.
With the success of more than 200 homes sold since the Woodside Homes "Turn-Key" sales event began in mid-July, the builder is extending the celebration through September 30. As part of the promotion, homebuyers enjoy a selection of any two of the available bonuses, including: a designer-coordinated package of a new stainless steel side-by-side refrigerator, washer, dryer and window coverings; backyard landscaping; or 30-year fixed rate financing at a below-market rate of just 3.75 percent.
DEAR BENNY: I recently was the successful bidder on a condo. The closing was within 15 days of the sale, and a special warranty deed was conveyed for the amount of my bid. The closing agent told me after the closing that I had signed a memorandum of foreclosure agreeing to reimburse the seller for prepaid taxes and all amounts claimed owing by the condominium association.
RIPON – Visitors to the Wever family's gardens can easily find themselves transported to a Mediterranean villa.
DEAR BENNY: In response to your question about whether it is better to make additional mortgage payments monthly or annually, I believe you are correct that monthly payments are better than if the annual payment is made at year's end.
This weekend only, K. Hovnanian Homes is hosting a "$20K Any Way" sales celebration at Medallion in Manteca. Customers who enter purchase agreements now through Sunday will receive a $20,000 credit they can apply to designer upgrades, structural options, appliances, closing costs or a buydown of their interest rate.
Warmer weather is often considered perfect for cleaning up and cleaning out. As the saying goes, "Out with the old, in with the new." However, according to Molly J. Deas, academic director for Interior Design at The Art Institute of Portland, summer is an ideal time to inject trends of the season and redecorate by reusing items in new ways.
DEAR BENNY: My husband and I signed a contract in November and put $1,000 down. The real estate agent put financing as "n/a" (not applicable) because we were preapproved by our bank. He sent us to a bank and the loan was approved, with a great interest rate and no points. Then problems started.
Do you tend to lean toward traditional designs, but like the convenience of modern technology? If you do, you're not alone. Keep your kitchen pretty and polished with these items that pack a modern punch ... but only on the inside.
NEW YORK (AP) - U.S. homebuilders lost a little confidence in the housing market this month but remain generally upbeat ahead of the spring home-selling next season.
WASHINGTON (AP) - House Speaker John Boehner said Thursday that the GOP-controlled House won't take up legislation aimed at neutering a 2012 overhaul of the federal flood insurance program that is hitting homeowners with big premium hikes.
DEAR BENNY: I am having problems with my mortgage. I fell on some hard times lately and fell behind on my mortgage payments. My mortgage lender has been dragging this out for over a year. I have been set up on two separate trial payments and made them both with no problem. Now my loan has gone into foreclosure. The lender keeps telling me that I am under review. Can you tell me what options I have to try to keep my home? --Hodges
SAN DIEGO (AP) - California home prices rose in December while tight inventories kept a lid on sales, a research firm reported Wednesday.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Average U.S. rates for fixed mortgages declined this week, edging closer to historically low levels.
It is costing me just $52 more a month to buy my own home in Manteca when all is said and done than if I was still renting a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment at Laurel Glen.
With new home trends emerging, it's an ideal time to collect ideas to inspire your next home improvement plans.
PALO ALTO - Master baths top most homeowners' lists and four in ten will be skipping the tub (43 percent), according to the Winter Houzz Bathroom Remodeling Survey of more than 7,500 Houzz users who are in the midst of, or are planning, a bathroom remodel. Houzz ( www.houzz.com ), the world's leading platform for home remodeling and design.
ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) - Another buyer might not have flinched at the idea of demolishing the tiny 1920s house in Lyon Park, with its two bedrooms, single bathroom and basement built for dwarves.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Average U.S. rates for fixed mortgages barely changed this week, hovering near historically low levels.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. home prices barely rose in November from the previous month and year-over-year gains slowed, reflecting declines in sales in the fall.
(BPT) - While giving a new $900,000 home a thorough going-over, Salt Lake City home inspector Kurt Salomon found a problem under the deck. The builder had cut corners, using the wrong kind of fasteners to secure the deck to the house. Yet, the municipal building official had approved the work.

I work for a software integration company that has helped a customer install InDesign CS 5.5 in a terminal server environment.
InDesign CS 5.5 was installed with a license key obtained from Adobe for X number of users.
Now the customer has obtained from Adobe a new license key for Y number of users.
I cannot find any information on this website or searching the wider web on how, exactly, to get this installation of InDesign CS 5.5 to run with the new license key instead of the old one.
Does anyone know how to do this?
As a practical matter, I don't think it matters too much. There's a certain amount of the "honor system" in volume licensing keys, and the real point is that you paid for the number of seats you are using. If the program doesn't complain about it, I would not spend too-too much time worrying about it.
It's not clear to me if your Y includes your X or not; that is, was X=100 and you added 200 seats and now X=100 and Y=200? Or X=100 and Y=300?
Volume licensing key activations aren't any different from regular license key activations, you can still uninstall (or deactivate, I believe) and install with a new key.
But your "terminal server" environment may complicate the situation if Y does not include X. You could have two seperate installs of ID, or you could have ID installed with either X or Y but not both.
I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.

The Future, It's Now: Self-Driving Automobiles
Seen here driving like most @$$holes I see around here looking a little too happy for a guy who's still gonna spill scalding coffee on his nuts when the truck in front of him stops, a man demonstrates the luxury of a self-driving car. Like we're supposed to believe he wouldn't be masturbating!
Self-driving cars have left the realm of science fiction thanks to the European Safe Road Trains for the Environment (SARTRE) project and a little help from the safety-obsessives at Volvo.
SARTRE has been researching and developing a new system that enables a convoy of cars to be autonomously led behind a vehicle manned by a professional driver. The lead vehicle of the "train" isn't anything special - just a cargo truck - but the Volvo S60 on his six is outfitted with a range of sensors, monitors and motors which allow it to follow in its path. A network of these vehicles could tuck in behind each other and allow the drivers to sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee and get through the morning paper on their way to work. Some version of the system is expected to become a reality by 2020
So, uh, I still have to trust the lead-truck driver to not steer all us lemmings off a cliff? I'm not sure how I feel about that. Wait, yes I do, and I don't like it. "But GW, think of the possibilities!" Right, like still crashing into a ditch while texting? Thanks but no thanks, Road Trains, but I'd rather get tangled in power lines jetpacking to work any day.
4:00 video that I may or may yes have only watched 1:00 of after the jump.

Whether you want to build your dream home or simply renovate your current one, home design software allows you to create personalized home designs to actualize the home you desire. Using this advanced software, you can customize every aspect of your house, from the interior walls to the location of the light switches and even the landscaping details.
House design software includes many customization tools to help you design your home precisely as you envision it. These tools allow you to customize the dimensions of the house, adjust the roof pitches and even pick out the size and style of your cabinets. The software lets you add furniture, appliances and detailed items such as garbage cans to the design for a realistic view of the finished product. One of the greatest benefits to using this type of software is the multiple views of your plans. Using the 3D models and lighting simulation, you can visualize every aspect of your home design.
In our review, you will find articles on home design software and tips on how to get the most from home design software. Also, don't forget to look at our top three house design products: Home Designer Suite, Home & Landscape Design and TurboFloorPlan 3D Home & Landscape.
There are many aspects to designing your dream home, so you need home design software that is versatile and covers all your needs. When we evaluated software to design homes, we looked for applications that include the ability to easily create floor plans, design the landscaping and fill the virtual home with many custom details. Simplicity is also critical for such advanced and complex software, so we made sure that support is available to you in case any problems arise.
Below are the criteria we used to compare home design software.
Features The software's features should go beyond basic floor plan design to offer a variety of tools such as real-time walkthroughs and pre-designed home plans. First-rate home design software offers tools that give you maximum design freedom and customization, including lighting effects and landscape design. Many of the best applications offer a cost estimator to give you a useful estimate of how much it will cost to complete the project.
The ability to view house designs is a crucial aspect of this software. Most applications allow you to view your plans in 2D and 3D. The best home design software lets you set custom camera angles, fly around your virtual property and walk through a 3D virtual model of the house.
Design & Construction Tools As you design your own home, you need software with the tools to simplify the process. Tools such as a roofing wizard, deck designer and framing editor make the design process much smoother. They also allow you to add a personalized touch to your home design. You can add color schemes and textures similar to those you wish to add to your home. Additionally, you can use the software to incorporate your property's topography to see how your house will look in its surroundings.
Object Libraries Having an extensive object library is important for completing your design. We looked for libraries that offer hundreds of objects for both the interior and exterior of the home. Extensive plant libraries are also important because they allow you to create a landscaped yard with the type of plants you want to have. Many home design applications even allow you to import 2D or 3D photos into your design so that you can have a picture of your family in the hallway or the custom cabinet your grandfather made in your bedroom.
Help & Support With the complex nature of the project, the help and support options for house design software should offer clear, step-by-step instructions. The information in help files and tutorials should be simple to understand and well organized. We looked for manufacturers that offer telephone, email and live chat support. Also, user forums, user manuals and FAQs are valuable support resources to help you if you become stuck.
Floor plan software is a valuable tool whether you're building your first dream home or your fifth. This application will help you design your home with the inclusion of all the small details and without unnecessary stress.

Beyond one reference we know nothing of a hospital for lepers founded here. In 1336 Bishop Robert Wyville of Salisbury granted an indulgence for the repair of the fabric and belltower. (fn. 20)

December 2009
As a Pace student, I am constantly on the go. This year in particular has been extremely busy, but also rewarding. One of the highlights was restarting a campus club for aspiring entrepreneurs (P.A.C.E - Pace Association for Collegiate Entrepreneurs). Another was attending the President's Scholarship Reception, where I was able to meet and speak with alumni donors. The incredible generosity of Pace's alumni was inspiring.
I would like to thank you for your support over the years and hope that you will make the decision to give to Pace's Annual Fund this year. Your gift helps students like me achieve our dreams and work toward greatness.
On behalf of all the current students at Pace, thank you for your generosity.

Love these pants!
January 31, 2013
Got these on sale (thank you, Altrec, your site is FANTASTIC for finding deals) and had been looking for quite some time for warm pants for showshoeing. These are perfect. I am a solid size 12, 5'8" and I got the large which fit over my pants so I'll be able to layer effectively. The back of the waist is quite high, which is great to fit under a snowskirt. The inner pantleg fits great down into boots and the reinforced area feels bulletproof. Length is great, but I'm tall. Overall very pleased with these pants!!
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Great valueDecember 13, 2011
These pants fit great! The color is actually not at all what I expected - you can't really see all the green in the pictures online, but they are quite green. I decided to keep them and let the color grow on me, which is has. Can't wait to take them out in the snow soon!
Pros: Great design, Performance, Ease of use, Cons: CostWarm and comfortable ski pants
February 22, 2012
These are great insulated ski pants - great fit with some flexibility, they move with you for skiing, not too baggy, plenty of room for layers but quite warm for most conditions. the Plum and blue are gorgeous colors
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Cons: CostPerfect for skiing
December 17, 2012
These pants were just what I was looking for - needed relaxed fit, with insulation as I get cold easily. I am a skiier who has taken to snowboarding outerwear for true comfort and warmth. I took a chance an ordered 1 size bigger after viewing the size chart which was a mistake. The fit is regular so order the size you are in most pants. These pants are great for a full day of winter skiing.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, PerformanceGreat purchase
January 02, 2013
Bought these for my girlfriend and she loved them. The color and pattern looked slightly different in person but overall happy with the purchase. She hasn't had the chance to use them on the mountain yet but I'm sure they will perform as advertised as Patagonia always does.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Cons: CostSeptember 27, 2012
Received my Patagonia Insulated Snowbelle pants last week. Working with Altrec was excellent, customer service was superb. The pants are extremely comfortable without being too loose. I'm 5'7", 140 pounds and the medium fit well, not too big but plenty of room to move around and tuck in under layers. I ordered the pants in the Bougainvillea color which is vibrant and rich. There are also plenty of deep pockets. Another great Patagonia purchase can't wait for the snow this season.
Pros: Great design, Build qualityGreat Quality Runs SMALL
January 28, 2013
I was on the fence as to what size to purchase...I am normally a size 10 in jeans, skirts, etc. I even wear an 8 in some things, too. I went ahead and ordered the Medium, but they were way too small. I was able to snap them closed, but major muffin top was all that resulted! They were also way too tight in my butt and thighs. Talk about a let down! I returned them for a Large, and am looking forward to trying those on. I don't know why companies like Patagonia make their clothes run small...It drives me nuts. The last thing anyone wants is a tight ski pant. The quality, however, seemed very good. I plan on wearing them heli skiing in British Columbia in a few weeks. I'm sure with the right size I'll be very satisfied.
Pros: Great design, Build qualityFinally new ski pants!
November 26, 2010
I've been wearing the same old pair of ski pants for the last 12+ years. I decided to buy these after booking a ski trip to Whistler and could not be happier. They fit perfect and even have a velcro adjustable waist! Lots of pockets and best of all, inside thigh venting zippers! These Patagonia ski pants are fantastic! Why did I wait so long! In my opinion, Patagonia makes a product that lasts, my Patagonia ski shell jacket looks brand new still and it's 10+ years old!
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value, fit, styleGood quality snow pants
February 20, 2013
These pants seem to be of good quality, are comfortable, don't make a huge amount of noise. The large size is rather large, but it depends on if you like them cut closer to the body or more loose-fitting. I was looking for something that I could layer with lightweight bottoms if I had to, and these fit the bill.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Cons: CostCannot beat Patagonia
September 14, 2012
I purchased these snow pants to get what I hoped would be a warmer and longer pair of ski pants over my others. I have long legs and do not like my ski pants to be 6 inches off the ground (even if it does not really make a difference in usefulness). I have Patagonia jackets, but did not want to splurge for the pants. These pants are much lower price than their other styles and still insulated with all the features. Well, they were great....warm..long enough (I did go up a size for length). The fit is true t0 size. There are lots of very accessible pockets and belt loops to hang things or wear a belt. The material is very sturdy and even through the trees, I never got a snag or tear. I use them for skiing and sledding. They would be a bit bulky for winter climbing. Overall, even at full price, these pants are a bargain.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value, pockets!, warmGreat snow pants
January 10, 2013
These snow pants have all of the features I wanted, so they are keepers. The inner thigh zippers are a nice option. I was concerned they would be bulky for walking, but I haven't given them a thought. My only complaint is the sizing. I am between a 10 and 12, 33" inseam usually, and the large is really large. The waste cinches fine, so they adjust to fit. But they buckle from the cinched fit so I tried a medium. I couldn't even snap the mediums, they were so small. So there is quite a large variance from Med to Large. Love the length - plenty long so they don't look like silly flood pants but not dragging on the ground, either.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of useGreat ski pants
January 03, 2012
Great pants - my normal size is a 10, and the medium fits very nicely. The waist is a bit lower than the other I have, which makes them look a bit more fitted. I would prefer the cargo pocket on the right leg to have a zipper, but the two layers of velcro seem to do pretty well. The leg gaiters aren't particularly wide, and don't zip or snap up like others, but I was able to get them over the tops of my ski boots. I wore these with a baselayer and a pair of yoga pants and the warmth level was good.
Love Patagonia
November 08, 2012
I like these pants. I like where they hit on the waist and how they feel to the hip but they are a bit bulky from there down. Heads up to other mini-leg folk like me --- they are long. I am a curvy, shorty --- 5'5" and around 150 with gymnast thighs and the medium is great in the waist and butt but has a long leg. I wanted an affordable, insulated, Patagonia option (which is, in my opinion, a great, quality product), so I will work with what I have.

A vervet monkey spasms violently after being injected with a toxic dose of a chemical that acts as a nerve agent. An instructor plunges a scalpel into a live goat to create traumatic wounds. Two military training videos obtained by PCRM through the Freedom of Information Act reveal the deadly use of animals in medical training.
In one video, trainees perform several invasive procedures on a live, anesthetized goat. The instructor repeatedly points out that goats differ from human casualties in many important ways, including anatomical landmarks and response to treatment. In another video, military personnel give live vervet monkeys an overdose of the drug physostigmine in an exercise designed to simulate the effects of a chemical weapons attack.

17 turnovers 11 fumbles, 6 INTs 340 YPG, 167.5 rushing, 172.5 passing 19 offensive PPG scored only scored 3 or more offensive TD's in a game twice in that time Blah Blah Blah - we all know this. So, things look pretty bad on offense right now. But check this out: These were the offensive yards per game from Florida's last 6 games last year: 286 - Louisville 399 - FSU 356 - Jack St 311 - ULL 276 - Mizzou 266- UGA Notice nothing over 400. Now look at their first two games this year: 413 - Toledo 415 - Miami Florida is averaging more than 100 yards more per game than the last 6 games last year. The offense IS moving the ball better. The offense IS better than last year, the only issue is turnovers, a place where UF has been sloppy in the last 3 games where they have 9 turnovers in the last 3, with 2 losses being the result. The only thing UF HAS GOT TO DO BETTER, is protect the football. It's that simple. If they protect the football, UF will win a lot of games this year. If they don't, well...
Thank you! I've been screaming this for 5 days. Our offensive gameplan put us in position to win by a lot points. We did not execute the gameplan. This dazzling post was sent via my Samsung Galaxy Tablet using jet packs custom built for Gator Country.
you make good points, and yes the progress is great. i think what most people are worried about concerning the offense; is jeff's decision making and inability to make those game changing plays. if we take care of the ball we absolutely will win most of our games this year but in just saying that it brings up a bigger point. that point is whether jeff can make the plays that we need. and im not just talking about him throwing the ball deep. it is taking bad sacks, missing wide open receivers to force a terrible throw. sometimes the best play when he is under pressure is to simply throw it away which he does not do. yes the offense is improved but with the problems i have pointed out in this post; i don't see how we can make the next step forward offensively.
We'll know right away. UT seems to have some luck flowing their way in the turnover category. UF can't let UT stay in the game because of turnovers.
It seems like the first drive of every game is scripted and does very well. After the scripted first drive, it seems like Pease struggles on 3rd down and redzone play calling and Driskel struggles when his first option is taken away.
after sobering up....then taking the past few day to really analyze what happened I hate to say I'm encouraged by what I'm seeing. Two things I'd like to see 1) In red zone JD switch to zone read and have STRICT rules implemented by Pease about holding the ball too long, or trying to force a play, hopefully zone read will eliminate those scenarios anyway 2) Get our younger playmakers the ball, especially KT, Showers, Drob, Fullwood....we shouldn't have to always "create" a score with a play. Sometimes it's ok for a guy to make a defender miss....or go get a jump ball
I am inclined to agree with this, but I am not sure how good these defenses we played really are. I presume they are better than they were last year, but then again, it is hard for either to have been worse... Call me cautiously optimistic...
I think the WR position has greatly improved and progressed. This offense is still missing a major piece--the TE and some improvement on the OL. We improve in those two areas as well as a QB who can protect the ball, our offense will be fine.
I had mentioned this after the Toledo game. Tennessee was the only time we had more yards than either game this year and Tennessee had the worst defense we faced in 2012.
I have been saying the same thing. Our offense moves the ball great we just have to protect the ball.
I'm just tired of all the doom and gloom because of one game. Yes it was a bad loss to a rival, a game UF never should have lost, and yes JD made some mistakes, but if UF can just clean those up, and even just convert FG's instead of TO's, UF will win A LOT of their games, if not all of them, this season.
We are averaging about the same points and our turnovers still high. All we've added is yardage and TOP. We are 1-1. We will be playing not so good teams until we play lsu, so we'll see if we can score. But turnovers and scoring remain a concern to me.
As long as you've been here, this surprises you? Back in the Meyer Era, the Doom and Gloom crowd was in force when we didn't win by three TDs or more. It's a good thing we didn't have the Internet in 1992 when SOS got stoomped by Tennessee and Miss State in Weeks Two and Three. I was here when we lost our last three games in 1999. Definitely wrist-cutting time. Of course, Dougie and Hoke got all the blame...:grin:
Something wrong with scripting ten or so possessions in advance of each game? It is also taking too long to get the play down to JD.
ThePlayer: See, Brent, it's easy. Just press the o button and pick your receiver and then send them on a hot route fly route. How hard was that? Brent Pease: Get the hell out of my office.

My Party
- 6 guests
- 22 June 2012
- my backyard / Cincinnati / Ohio / United States
Party Recap...
Each element of this Baby & Co. memorable baby shower included all of the mother-to-be's favorite baby trends- crib shoes, a cute onesie and headband, and a fabulous color scheme. The shower was inspired by the adorable giraffe & tiffany crib shoes designed by email@example.com. I then found a giraffe ribbon onesie with matching headband from firstname.lastname@example.com. We wanted to keep the shower small and intimate so we designed everything so that the guest would remember the day.
For the lunch-to-go station, I found a wonderful stand at the local Goodwill. This area was designated for guest to sip, snack, and mingle! Then, for the dessert table we used real Tiffany & Co. items which we already had- boxes, bags, and glasses cases. We incorporated the wonderful Sweet Petit desserts, which were amazing items to add into the décor. My team went to work wrapping boxes while I handmade the French macaron tower and chocolate dipped pretzel favor bags.
The most memorable detail of the shower was the gift and thank you station. Our client is in love with nature so we used the natural elements of the backyard as a part of the décor- the garden with tree stump and stone benches as the seating for the guest to relax. The custom made diaper cake stole the spotlight with its intricate design and accessories made by my fabulous team at Something Chic Party and Event Design. It was a pleasure working with our client and vendors on this project.

My Aunt is a chocoholic, living in a small town several states away. I send her these chocolates every few months--she loves them. Delivery works well, with the candy arriving in great shape despite the weather (blinding heat, typically). Great candy, great way to make someone happy.
these were a big hit at the birthday party we like them so much we ordered more good variety not the same old same old two thumbs up
Sent these to a relative out of town. Upon visiting, heard their comments and tried the product. Tasted just OK. Overpriced.
The box of truffles were very creamy and yummy. The kids enjoyed them very much. The guality of the chocolate was excellent. They didn't last very long!!

March 1 2014 BOOKLIST
January 2014
Sophie McPhee feels like a failure when she returns home to Lonesome Way, Montana. After refusing to have a baby with her, her husband left her for his pregnant girlfriend. Sophie sold her bakery business as part of the divorce, and is now back at the family ranch with her sympathetic mother. Her grandmother and her friends have a list of bachelors for Sophie to choose from, but all she wants to do is lick her wounds and start a new bakery business. No man is appealing to her, except for her first crush, Rafe Tanner. Rafe is her best friend's brother and was the source of many of her schoolgirl dreams. No longer the town bad boy, he is now a single father, raising his preteen daughter, Ivy. As with any good romance, complications get in the way of true love as Gregory tells a charming tale of two emotionally burdened people with extremely likable characters and the perfect degree of tension to keep things interesting.
YA/Mature Readers: Teen romance readers will relate to Ivy's insecurities as she enters middle school and longs for a mother like those ofher friends. —Patty Engelmann

'Taps, Tunes and Tall Tales': Texas Tommy Takes New York
"Taps, Tunes and Tall Tales" is the perfect title for Tommy Tune's cabaret debut at Feinstein's at Loew's Regency, and he delivers plenty of all three. You know you're in for an evening of savvy show business sass the minute the lights dim and he sails in singing "I've Got Them Feelin' Too Good Today Blues" in a red suit the color of a tomato surprise.
Treetop tall and chlorophyll fresh, the dancer/actor/director/choreographer who Gene Kelly once called "too lanky for a legend" reduces his life story to one hour of handpicked tales and take-home tunes, punctuated by nifty tap routines executed to tumultuous applause on a stage the size of a forever stamp.

Anastacia |
ANASTACIA'S ALLEGED USE OF SCIENCE� Singer Anastacia has been far more successful in Europe than in her native America, where few know of her beyond dance-pop devotees and gay barflies -- and that's largely just one overlapping audience. Her third album, Anastacia -- and her first since battling breast cancer over the past year -- was released internationally at the end of last month, but there's still no set release date for the U.S. In all probability it will depend on how well the first single, �Left Outside Alone,� fares. And that's where this tale gets interesting.
Anastacia's American handlers crave a true Billboard Hot 100 chart hit -- and not just her usual dance chart-topper. And technology is quickly advancing to aid them in that quest. But are they using technology to create a hit for Anastacia? The New York Times reported last month on conflicting reports as to whether Anastacia used the Hit Song Science software from Barcelona-based �artificial intelligence� company PolyphonicHMI. Hit Song Science, according to the paper, assigns each song it analyzes a value, constructed from a complex mathematical formula derived from more than 20 components, including tempo, rhythm and cadence, of all songs released in the U.S. in the past 50 years. With a particular emphasis on those songs that charted in the top 30 of Billboard's Hot 100 chart in just the past five years, PolyphonicHMI then identified 55 �hit song clusters,� which any new song can be judged against. The closer a song lands to the center of a hit cluster, the more likely it is to be a successful song, a hit, goes the theory.
The naturally controversial technology is being used in the industry, the Times reports, though because it in essence deduces creativity to a mere equation no one wants to cop to using it. A producer who worked on Anastacia's �Left Outside Alone� told the Times he uses Hit Song Science, but he wouldn't say if he did it for that song. And her publicists adamantly denied the artist used the software �now or in the future.� In any case, the song is firmly lodged at the top of the U.K. and the European charts, along with her album. Because it was only released in the U.S. two weeks ago, it's far too early to assess its success here�
Mould |
SEASON OF MUSICAL BENEFITS� D.C.'s very own DJ and multi-genre recording artist Bob Mould will spin and perform at a benefit for gay marriage in New York this coming Wednesday, April 28. This Freedom to Marry rock benefit at the recently opened Crobar nightclub will feature performances from Mould, Le Tigre and Sleater-Kinney, and comedy and chatter from Sandra Bernhard, Margaret Cho, Alan Cumming and John Cameron Mitchell, who the New York Post reported may actually marry a gay couple or two. You see, the actor/filmmaker is also a minister in the Universal Life Church, the newspaper reported. Mitchell will spin along with Mould at the benefit's after-party, according to www.freedomtomarry.org.
Closer to home is this Sunday's March for Women's Lives, a pro-choice event on the Mall that has been endorsed by a slew of gay and gay-friendly entertainers, and may feature performances from a few of them. Though by press time organizers had not announced who will perform, a quick glance at artists' calendars suggests Indigo Girls, Ani DiFranco, Moby and Alanis Morisette are possible. See www.marchforwomen.org for more up-to-date information.
And while we're on the subject of benefits, Quincy Jones is organizing one in Rome in May that will raise money for children in war-ravaged parts of the world, including Ethopia, Sierra Leone and Afghanistan. It's being billed the We Are the Future campaign, an obvious successor to Jones' 1985 �We Are The World� benefit. The children are the future here, not the artists set to perform -- that is, excepting for Alicia Keys, Josh Groban and Usher. It's churlish to say, but also truthful, that Lionel Richie and Herbie Hancock are definitely not music's future. Neither, to our way of thinking, are other announced performers, including LL Cool J and Natalie Cole�
ELECTION-YEAR POLITICAL POP� Expect to hear more political pop beyond benefit events from Le Tigre and Ani DiFranco. The two feminist acts are, in their own way, hoping to stir up liberal politics in an election year. The dance-pop trio Le Tigre is, in a sense, shedding its indie roots. After two albums on teeny-tiny Mr. Lady Records, the women are expected to release their third full-length set in late summer on an imprint of major label Universal. The album is likely to include two tracks recorded with producer Ric Ocasek, best known for �80s group The Cars. Billboard reports other tracks are being engineered by Nick Sansano, best known for his work with Sonic Youth. Le Tigre is may also join the bill of the popular national Lollapalooza tour. DiFranco, meanwhile, is considering organizing a tour of political swing states just before the presidential election, she told Billboard. The magazine calls DiFranco one of the most visible success stories in the world of independent music. Currently on tour to promote her latest release, Educated Guess, DiFranco is already at work on a follow-up album, which in theory could be released in advance of a fall tour of swing states. �I want to really be focused this coming fall on the election," she says�

Hovering in the Wind
The 40 mile-per-hour howling wind didn't seem to bother the syrphid fly, aka hover fly and flower fly.
It clung to a blossom on the tower of jewels, Echium wildpretii, and proceeded to nectar. Its wings sparkled in the morning sun.
This is a pollinator and one that's often mistaken for a honey bee.
A honey bee it isn't. It's a fly.
If you want to read more about them, be sure to check out entomologist Robert Bugg's UC ANR publication, Flower Flies (Syrphidae) and Other Biological Control Agents for Aphids. Click on the link for access to a free 25-page PDF.

Syrphids Back Again
Have you seen the little syrphid flies, aka flower flies and hover flies, hovering around the early spring blossoms?
We saw half a dozen of them Monday, Feb. 15 nectaring a white ceanothus at the Marshall Post Office in Marin County. The ceanothus is a shrub from the buckhorn family, Rhamnaceae.
Native pollinator specialist Robbin Thorp, emeritus professor of entomology at the UC Davis Department of Entomology, said these syrphids (below) are probably from the genus Toxomerus. The family is Syrphidae (flower flies).
The larvae of these insects are good to have in your garden--they eat aphids, thrips and small caterpillars. The adults feed on nectar and pollen.
The syrphids fly so fast that you almost need a motor drive to capture them in flight. Plus, they seem especially skittish this time of year. Shadow them with your body or camera and they're gone in a flash.
To learn more about flower flies, a good read is Robert Buggs' 25-page booklet, "Flower Flies (Syrphidae) and Other Biological Control Agents for Aphids in Vegetable Crops," published in May 2008 by the University of California, Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR). You can download it for free by accessing this page.It's illustrated with photos that will help you recognize many of the syrphids.
Honing In
Just Hovering
It's often mistaken for a honey bee.
It's not a honey bee. It's a hover fly or flower fly.
And this one, hovering around the plants last Saturday in the Storer Gardens at the University of California, Davis, looked like a Syrphus opinator to me.
So I asked UC Davis entomologist Robert "Bob" Bugg, who specializes in flower flies (Syrphidae), what it is.
"If I have to be an opinator, I'd opine that you're right," he quipped.
Bugg, who received his doctorate in entomology at UC Davis, does research on the biological control of insect pests, cover crops, and restoration ecology.
If you want to learn more about flower flies, read Dr. Bugg's "Flower Flies (Syrphidae) and Other Biological Control Agents for Aphids in Vegetable Crops" (Publication 8285, May 2008, University of California, Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources.)

Let Us Prey
Robert Bugg saw it first.
That's entomologist Robert L. Bugg.
Bugg, who received his doctorate in entomology at UC Davis, does research on the biological control of insect pests; cover crops; and restoration ecology.
And he saw it first.
"Look," he said. "That praying mantis just bit the head off a pipevine swallowtail butterfly."
We were part of a field tour, "Yolo County Field Tour of Native Bee Habitat on Working Lands." Held Wednesday, Aug. 27 and organized by the Native Pollinators in Agriculture Project, the field tour drew representatives from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, California Department of Agriculture, California EPA, and farmers from throughout the country.
We visited seven sites: The Farm on Putah Creek, Butler Farm, Good Humus Farm, Cache Creek Conservancy, Muller Farms, Hedegrow Farms, and the Pioneer Hybrid Seed Farm.
I brought along my camera and a macro lens to capture photos of native pollinators, such as long-horned bees, sunflower bees, sweat bees and bumblebees.
We saw the green praying mantis, disguised as a flower stem or blade of grass, at The Farm on Putah Creek.
It had just snared a pipevine swallowtail butterfly (Battus philenor).
It was survival of the fittest, and the matnis was more than fit. Now he was enjoying a morning meal at the expense of a fluttering butterfly.
The praying mantis (sometimes called a "preying matnis") is an ambush predator. It lies in wait for unsuspecting dinner to arrive.
Mr. Mantis grasped the butterfly in his spiked forelegs and chewed off the head.
It was a good day for a praying mantis, a bad day for a butterfly.
