The hot summer days always call for something light and refreshing. This modern loft features a light-filled design by Linda Bergroth and is just about as refreshing as you can get. Bold colors dance around the room like summer flowers in bloom while the white hardwood floors reflect the light that shines in these large gorgeous windows.
The modern glossy blue lacquer kitchen is such a strong and bold contrast with all the white surroundings. Adding bold colors in a neutral space is the perfect way to add character to any room. The use of the wall mounted light fixture above the cook top is a very clever idea and a great alternative for under-counter lighting. You can get this look in your own kitchen by using this modern swing arm lamp.

Bold colors and patterns bring so much fun energy into the space and still manage to maintain a sophisticated feel. Bright colored pillows are a great way to add personal style and energy into your modern loft.
Blue, black, and white stay consistent in the small library and create a well balanced, interesting space that one would actually get excited about reading in! The patterned rug is...well...just so cool! Blue accents on the built-in shelving create a very powerful element that shows the level of detail considered in this modern loft. Simple, but decorative pendant lighting can be a defining element in the style of your home. The solid black pendant (above) makes a strong statement due to the contrast with the white, but is very simple in form.
Kichler Olde Bronze Mini Pendant Light
Large, bold artwork above the bed is always a great alternative to a headboard. This colorful painting brings a very playful, positive energy into the bedroom and almost guarantees you'll wake up everyday with a smile! The wall mounted bedside sconces are perfect reading lights and help with keeping the nightstands clear from clutter.
The contemporary bathroom may be neutral in color, but its boldness is right on par. The gray, black, and white geometric patterned concrete floor tiles are a dynamic element and pair perfectly with the beveled edge white brick pattern tile. The vintage bathroom sconces and pendant lights bring an industrial vibe into this modern bathroom. Bathroom lighting can change the entire feel of your space so creating balance is key when deciding what direction you want to go.
Oh look, and there's a modern sauna, as if we weren't sold on this loft already! This looks like the perfect place to relax after a hard day at work.
Hope you all are having a beautiful and refreshing summer! Make sure to take a little time for some rest and relaxation!

When we speak of design, we often refer to architecture, furniture and graphics, but rarely do we talk about letters. "Typeface" is a typography term that refers to the visual characteristics of a set of letters and numbers, and no typeface is more universally used, imitated, loved and loathed than Helvetica. A Google image search of the word Helvetica speaks volumes of its iconic place in 20th century communication design. What is is that makes this typeface so ubiquitous?
Developed in 1957 by Swiss designer Max Miedinger, Helvetica is the Modernist's dream - a sans serif typeface that eschews ornamentation for clean, crisp function. And it can be found absolutely everywhere.
On the New York City subway:
In the mark of some of the world's largest corporations:
And all over the place in graphic designer tributes such as this one (clearly inspired by the Russian artist Kasmir Malevich):
It arouses a range of emotions among designers. Some love it. Some don't:
Some imitate it. It's younger cousin Arial (developed in 1982), has been packaged with Microsoft operating systems since 1992 and is one of the most widely used computer fonts today.
I'll admit, the more I look at Helvetica, the more I start to notice that the same rules that dictate good typography apply to good design as well. You don't have to go far to see it, we have some on our website. Check out some of these fixtures below. There's the variable shaped bowl of Helvetica's "d" and "b" that reminds me of this Lite Source Kito Green Table Lamp:
And there are the straight, flattened finials at the top of both the Helvetica letter "t" and this Possini Euro Design Triple Column Wood Table Lamp:
I'm not suggesting that one influenced the other, but it is fun to note how the formal rules that govern typeface design are very much at play in the larger design world. The Modernist design principles that informed the creation of Helvetica are as ubiquitous as the the typeface itself.
Love it, hate it, use it, or don't. Whatever your reaction to Helvetica, one thing is certain: it's everywhere.

Have you been searching for the perfect modern coffeehouse to meet your clients at, have a quick business meeting, or just get some work done? Well if you're in Los Angeles, look no further, Graffiti Cafe is the perfect place! The interior is a clean black and white palette with painted white floors and exposed vaulted beam ceilings that make the space feel incredibly open. It's a gorgeous crisp palette just waiting to be tagged by the local graffiti and street artists that fill the streets of the La Brea neighborhood.
The baristas are as friendly as ever and stand behind the all white counter lined with treats. This peace sign dictates quite an accurate description of this place. The glowing sign along with the incredible music creates a vibe that almost makes you feel as if you're floating like a cloud in the space. It's a real chill experience even when you're hyped on the delicious Intelligentsia coffee!
There are many different types of seating in this modern coffeehouse to suit your mood and your company. The classic fireplace mixes with the modern elements to create a cozy setting. Using a modern black sofa that is extremely comfortable can really make one feel cozy in a space that may appear to be very sleek.
This area is great for lounging and chatting with friends while sipping coffee or eating one of their amazing Butter Nutter cookies!
Zuo Fortress Collection Black Leather Sofa
You can head upstairs to the laptop stations in the lofted area and look down onto the crowd or you can grab a comfy seat in one of the booths lining the perimeter of the open space below.
The tables and chairs float in front of the booths to create small group seating that can easily be clustered together for larger groups. You won't feel cramped in this large open space by any means. The use of modern black dining chairs and simple round white dining tables creates a bold, modern contrast in any space.
Zuo Spire Black Dining Chair
Zuo Wilco White Dining Table
The larger communal spaces are perfect for serious business! Long dining tables are linked together to create a communal area for interacting with larger groups or just new friends.
The graffiti installation in this rear nook subtly separates the corner from the open plan seating. Semi-circular booths create intimate, more private seating in this area.
No matter what your agenda is, this modern coffeehouse is tailored to suite you. The coffee is definitely sublime and the music is so good you won't want to leave! Soups and sandwiches are coming soon and I'm sure so much more is up their sleeve! Welcome to the neighborhood Graffiti Cafe!

Voussoir Cloud
After writing my post on Tuesday, Modern Chandelier Meets Art Installation, I decided to post about actual art installations because well, it's fun and they're an amazing source of design inspiration. So, prepare to be inspired....
Since large-scale installations are very architectural, it makes perfect sense that the ones I'm featuring today are done by IwamotoScott Architects. Their range of projects include residential, commercial, institutional, competitions.... and art.
The Voussoir Cloud was designed for the Southern California Institue of Architecture gallery in Los Angeles. It consists of fourteen segmented pieces made out of paper thin petals shapes "designed to explore the structural paradigm of pure compression".
The project was inspired by such icons as Frei Otto and Antonio Gaudi who also studied efficient form. Each new form of design inspiration is developed out of another and that is inspiring.
UVA ISAR Exibit
IwamotoScott was selected to be an exhibitor for the Michael Owen Jones Lecture and Exhibition at University of Virginia's School of Architecture. The UVA ISAR Exhibit was made of graduated pleated paper with two different projects printed on alternating sides of the pleats to form this fascinating art installation.
The effect is giant postcard that flickers between the two images upon movement. The pleats allowed for efficient shipping as it was flat-packed all the way to Virginia from California.
UVA ISAR Exibit (above)
In-Out Curtain
Unlike the first two installations, the In-Out Curtain is actually a prototype for an operable screen that combines modular origami and digital production with light. It's sort of a hybrid drape/venetian blind/screen.
The curtain uses simple material resistance to generate its 2-dimensional movement quality. It's never in a permanent state, either in shape, or when against a window.
Although these are certainly not weekend DIY projects and also not something you would put in your home, the use of materials, form, and function are inspiring at so many levels. They serve as inspiration for designing our home and selecting modern furniture or lighting.

One of the many beautiful projects in this year's Dwell on Design Home Tours line up was Sander Architect's Green House pair. This set of townhouses on one single lot face each other over a drivable courtyard. They are very similar in appearance, yet not identical. Both buildings are wrapped in a skin of 1" x 2" aluminum edges that give it a very distinct appearance, but also act as a shade screen throughout the day.
This pair is what Whitney would call a Hybrid House. "This is a new type of house that we have developed, using a prefabricated metal frame, skin and roof. We have achieved unprecedented economies by using prefabricated building (warehouse) fabricators to manufacture the most expensive parts of the houses at a fraction of the normal costs. We have also achieved unprecedented scale."
The windows are wrapped in the same material used for bus graphics, which allows the home owners to see out, but no one to see in. What a brilliant idea! The custom pattern was designed to reflect the surrounding environment.
They photographed a tree and blew up the image so each building looks as though the the trees are reflecting in the windows. This organic element brings a lot of character to these ultra modern homes.
The front townhouse faces the street and features a quaint zen garden for a front yard. The concrete floors blend with the natural stone wall to create a very calm and peaceful area, filled with lots of natural sunlight. Simple organic wood furniture paired with these modern materials create a great balance in an industrial style space.
What a stunning kitchen! The dark oak Italian kitchen cabinetry contrasts perfectly with the concrete floors, while the two-story oxidized metal panels dominate the space.
The second floor living room features a glass railing and glass walkway which overlooks the kitchen. Modern glass dining tables are a great choice for an open plan. From above the dining table basically disappears.
The soft industrial aesthetic of this modern dining table (below) will help you get this look in your home.
Zuo Plume Clear Glass Modern Dining Table
The contemporary chandelier adds an elegant touch to the industrial space and brings the organic elements of nature indoors.
If you love the chandelier, but aren't one of those lucky enough have these gorgeously high ceilings, a shorter capiz shell pendant would work beautifully in your space.
Dolce Capiz Shell 25" Wide Pendant Chandelier
Many innovative green materials were used throughout this entire project, including passive heating and cooling, natural daylighting, shade screens, bamboo flooring, green cabinetry, and recycled glass countertops.
There were many amazing homes on the the Dwell Home Tour schedule and this is just one of them! I hope you had a chance to check them all out! But if not, there's always next year.....

Farmall A 1946 model
Hi I just joined the club last Sunday, Aug 5th because I have a 1946 Farmall A that belonged to my Dad. It's been in storage since he died in 1998. In fact it's been in the family since it was purchased in 1946 by my mother's cousin in Yorktown, Texas. I got it running last weekend after putting in new plugs, wires, points, rotor and dist cap, but apparently the clutch plate is stuck to the flywheel as I can't seem to get it to disengage when I put the clutch in. A club member John, suggested that I use some brake cleaner thru the inspection hole to help. Thanks John, I will try it this weekend. Also, someone suggested starting it in gear and try driving it. I am looking for to restoring this tractor, as it brings back great memories of my childhood.
Re: Farmall A 1946 model
I failed to mention, in my other post, that if you block it down and spray it with brake cleaner, it may need to set a few days and spray it 2 or 3 times over the period, but that frequently works.

to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the

Re: Farmall A 1946 model
OK, thanks, a nother suggestion was to start it in gear and try driving it for awhile. Any ideas with that comment?
Re: Farmall A 1946 model
Be very careful...
Re: Farmall A 1946 model
That's exactly how I got mine loose. I drove it around the barnyard a while and when it seemed like it wasn't gonna work I headed for the barn. Just as I entered the barn and the tractor bounced at the door entrance, it gave loose. Just make sure no one or nothing gets in front of you.
Here is a link with more about a stuck clutch. http://www.farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=51941&hilit=stuck+clutch
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.

Happy Monday BlackBerry theme lovers! It's time again for our weekly theme roundup. We have spent the last week digging through our tips and through the forums, to try and bring you the best themes we can find to grace your BB. Click through the jump to get our top picks, we have some really good themes to feature this week, and a contest along the way.
Free Themes of the Week
To be completely honest, I am a huge fan of the stock theme that comes loaded already on my device. No matter what theme I load, Precision Zen comes back around in no time. The new theme Mac-Daddy from dannieloco, has made its place on my Berry and kept it for longer than usual. It has stayed on my device simply because it stays true to that same stock flavor, while freshening things up and giving it a new look. Featuring some kickin HD Mac icons, and a very clean homescreen, it gives me that "stock theme" feel, while adding a great new look. It is available for the 9700,9630, and 8900, it can be downloaded OTA in the forums thread here:
Our free touchscreen theme of the week is Another Brick in the Wall by tom costello. While paging through the forums, I came across this theme and remembered running it on my Storm a few months ago when it came out. If you're a fan of Pink Floyd's The Wall, you'll love this simple variation on the stock 9530 theme. The theme features "Wall" inspired icons and some of the wallpapers we have come to know and love from that classic, making for a great look to change things up on your device.
Paid Themes of the WeekNon-Touchscreen
Our top pick for paid non-touchscreen devices is Big Picture HD by CTThemes. Chris dropped us a line last week to give us a heads-up on his latest release, and gave me a chance to give it a go before he did so. Now, I have said before how much I like the stock theme on my BB, but this one took my homescrren in a whole new direction, and I have to say, I liked it. Completely rearranging the homescreen for optimum functionality, it features 10 locked tabs for the most often used applications lining the top and bottom of the screen. Add in the 9-icon hidden dock, and a weather slot on the left, and I hardly ever have to leave my homescreen to get to anything I want to launch. One of the coolest feature with this theme is the huge HD pics that slide in when you highlight the corresponding tab for apps such as the Browser or Messages, and highlighting the icon in the weather slot gives you a clean look, perfect for showing off whatever wallpaper you happen to be rocking at the time. Available for the 8900, Tour, and 9700, you can pick it up in the CB store on sale for $2.99.
Over the last few weeks, we have covered a few different "platform clone" themes, including the Hero Sense UI, iPhone, and Nexus platforms. So, it only seemed fitting that we would show WinMo some love this week. That brings us to this weeks paid touchscreen selection, WinMobile 6 v2 by MBCustomz Themes. If you love the look of Windows Mobile, and want to add that look and feel to the beauty of your touchscreen BB, this theme will have you in heaven from the word go. Featuring a weather slot, today area, and a user-definable hidden dock, the function of the homescreen is on par with what you would expect. Clean simple "Windows" style icons round out the theme, and every component has been skinned to give you an all around WinMo feel. Available for all devices running 4.6+ OS, it's available in the CB store for $6.99.
Contest: We have 25 copies of Big Picture HD to give away. Just leave a comment on this post to enter. Contest ends this Sunday at Midnight PST. Please only leave one comment, multiple entries wont count.
That concludes our roundup for this week. We hope you enjoyed it, keep those tips and suggestions coming to our email, email@example.com!

nfldberryuser Feb 22, 2010 at 12:43 pm
I read this site daily and I really like the theme review days, but where's the love for the 85XX devices??? Seems like every context is for the 89XX, 96XX & 97XX - all good, but don't the 85XX users merit a look every now & then? Just a thought.

mcelroyc Feb 22, 2010 at 3:15 pm
I too keep reverting to my stock theme after trying a handful of other themes. I even dumped my KU Hawks theme for the old faithful. However, I am excited about the HD theme and its use of space. I would love a free shot at this one.
livinoz Feb 22, 2010 at 3:18 pm
I am intrigued by the visual aesthetics of this theme. I am somewhat of a "theme junkie" and would love the opportunity to finally get "on the wagon" with this theme.
lifeintechnicolor Feb 22, 2010 at 3:18 pm
all of these themes look good!
fritz269 Feb 22, 2010 at 3:20 pm
They do look nice!
Wickee Feb 22, 2010 at 3:21 pm
Nice theme pics as always. Really like the Big Picture one as well.

Pretty please?
lowersco Feb 22, 2010 at 3:26 pm
I like the look of the Big Picture HD theme but there aren't any user reviews on the Crackberry Store site so I'm not ready to purchase. Winning a free copy would be cool though.
GavinCampbell Feb 22, 2010 at 3:41 pm

Big Picture HD Rocks

BALTIMORE -- It's been an interesting year for Orioles prospect Mike Belfiore -- who was traded midseason from Arizona to Baltimore -- as the 24-year-old lefty excelled in his first taste of Double-A and continued to impress in the recently wrapped Arizona Fall League.
Belfiore -- who turned 24 last month -- joined Orioles No. 3 overall prospect Jonathan Schoop at this year's AFL Rising Stars Game and is gaining some of his own attention after flying under the radar since arriving at Bowie at the end of May. Belfiore, who is expected to be added to the 40-man roster along with Schoop, a second baseman, prior to Tuesday's deadline -- was 91-94 mph with his fastball and posted a 2.61 ERA with 11 strikeouts and three walks in his final 10 1/3 innings for the Mesa Solar Sox. He is currently ranked as the organization's 14th-best prospect, and Belfiore credits a return to relief in June 2011 and cleaning up his mechanics to a successful '12.
"It's probably been my best year because I got back to my comfort zone," Belfiore said of the first full season he's had as a pro exclusively out of the bullpen. "In college, I was a closer full time, never started. It was definitely an advantage going back to what I was comfortable with. I learned a lot from this year.
"The D-backs kind of strayed away with what I was doing [as a starter], and I was able to get back to that in the bullpen. And then getting traded obviously opened the door for me as well."
Belfiore came to the Orioles to complete the trade of infielder Josh Bell, leaving the organization that drafted him in the first round (45th overall) out of Boston College in the 2009 Draft. When the shock wore off, Belfiore saw the move as an opportunity, and Baltimore wasted no time seeing what it had, moving him to Double-A immediately. Belfiore, who had a 2.37 ERA with 28 strikeouts and five walks in 19 innings with Arizona's high Class A team in Visalia, Calif., took to the challenge in Bowie and posted a 2.85 ERA in 28 games.
"Obviously, Double-A is a level that you can prove to your team you can pitch at the big league level, and I feel really confident in my stuff now," said Belfiore, who allowed 20 runs -- 15 earned -- on 43 hits and 21 walks with 50 strikeouts over 47 1/3 innings pitched.
"I feel like I have the talent to pitch in the big leagues someday, and Double-A was a great experience. We had a lot of guys on our team that really helped me out and taught me the small things, and the coaching staff was really helpful, probably more so than anything, in getting me acclimated [to a new organization and level]."
Belfiore's hard work paid off when the Orioles told him he would be playing in the AFL, a showcase league that features some of baseball's best up-and-coming young players. The emphasis for him was to work on his third pitch, a changeup, in hopes of getting more confidence in throwing it along with his usual fastball-slider combination.
"That's one pitch I think can take it to another level," Belfiore said. "You are really getting that advantage of messing with hitters' timing."
He was pleased with the results in his first taste of the AFL, and Belfiore, who will spend some time relaxing at home in New York, is eager to start 2013 in the Orioles' organization and show what he can do this spring. Baltimore's bullpen was one of the best in the Majors last season, and if added to the 40-man roster, as expected, Belfiore will be one step closer to joining the O's at some point in '13.
"The whole team, it was every day we talked about it," Belfiore said of him and his teammates keeping tabs on the Orioles' incredible run. "We had a lot of those guys [on the big league club] in Bowie for rehab assignments. We'd talk about the Orioles all the time. I personally definitely followed the Orioles really closely. They were -- along with Oakland -- the best story in baseball."

The state of Mississippi is home to two of the SEC's top three returning quarterbacks.
Welcome to Raycom News Network's live blog from SEC Media Days in Hoover, AL.
The following column is satire and meant for entertainment purposes.
(RNN) - We are one quarter of the way through the 2013 college football season, and here is The Line King's Annual Conference Nugget Report.
He has long grieved because there are no longer any top-notch, beat-you-flat-then-rub-it-in, bad-guy hate magnets left in the bleak college football landscape of today. Miami of the 1990s, better-known as The "U," set a standard of indomitable wickedness that has yet to be repeated.
But hope floats eternally, because The Line King is a glass-half-full kind of guy:
ACC: Has the actual "U" returned? College football needs them! Bama is just not a good enough heel. The 2013 "U" has also given up only 50 points in four games. They just need more off-the-field antics and post-TD posing.
Big East (they should have never changed their name): Houston is a nice surprise. The Coogs might not be The "U," but they are a delightful 4-0 straight up/against the spread. SMU has a great 30 for 30 special like The "U," but is an appalling 0-4 ATS. Big 8: Is Baylor the next "U?" I doubt the Southern Baptists would allow the necessary antics, but the Bears are running through opponents quicker than a snake handler goes through a vial of anti-venom serum. They've also only given up 23 points in four games. Twenty-three! Big 11: The Big 11 will never produce a "U." Although Michigan's QB wearing No. 98 is pretty cool. C-USA: The once proud Southern Miss program is the perfect example of why you don't run off a coach who produced 14 consecutive winning seasons and 10 bowl games. Wake up, people, it's Hattiesburg, not Miami. Independents: The "U" would certainly like to rekindle the venerable "Catholics vs. Convicts" rivalry, especially considering that Notre Dame is a horrid 0-4 ATS. MAC: "U"Mass (yes, it is in the MAC) has only scored 28 points in four games. Yikes, that's not "U"-like. MountainBigWestWAC: Usually produces a few teams worth following. And like the old "U," the Benjamins are flying all over the place. "U"tah State is 4-1 ATS and while Hawaii is 0-4 on the field, they have nice beaches and are 3-1 ATS.
PAC 10+2: While not The "U," the "O" is certainly making an early season run for a spot in Pasadena. The Ducks have scored 239 and given up 43... very "U"-like. And forget SoCal's 3-2 record, Lane Kiffin got fired because they are 1-4 ATS.
$EC: Despite brainwashing half the nation, the $EC is not at all "U"-like ATS. Mike $live would love to replace Starkville with Miami. Although Mizzou (who remembered they are in the $EC?) is 4-0 SU and ATS.
Sun Belt: South Alabama is 3-1 ATS, but Mobile will never be confused with Miami. Neither will Monroe or Lafayette (LA), Bowling Green (KY), Troy (AL) or San Marcos (TX). Heck, Atlanta is not Miami, either, although they think they are. Next year add Boone (NC) and Statesboro (GA).
GaState @ Bammer -56: Old-school "U" beatdown. Clemson @ Syracuse +14: Lots of orange... just like The "U." UGA -11 @ Rocky Top: Speaking of Orange, ol' Smokey can only wish it was The "U." Arkansas +10 @ The Swamp: The "U" took care of the Gators earlier, deflating giant egos all up and down I-75. Mizzou @ Vandy -4.5: Vandy is a private school just like The "U," or so the Vandy fan keeps saying. Mississippi @ Barn +3: Black Bear fans are still excited about the Music City Bowl. Kentucky @ SoCar -21.5: The Visor would have been a perfect fit at The "U." Instead, he is in Columbia. Oh well. San Jose @ Hawaii +4.5: Think ATS my friends... ATS and those beaches.
TCU @ Oklahomer -11: TCU could be The "U." But it isn't.
GaTech @ The "U" -4.5: Welcome back, The "U."

Lambert treble fires Saints back to top spot
4:51pm Saturday 25th February 2012 in Sport
Rickie Lambert bagged his third hat-trick of the season to fire Saints back to the top of the Championship table.
The prolific striker scored twice in the space of ten first half minutes before rounding off a 3-0 win at Watford from the penalty spot.
With West Ham only drawing at home to Crystal Palace, the result saw Saints climb back to the league summit on a day when Birmingham also lost at home to relegation threatened Nottingham Forest.

— Thawing of diplomatic ice may lead to nuclear agreement in Iran
(New Castle News / New Castle, Pa.)
So what are we to make of Iran's most recent overtures to the United States?
Well, it would appear that economic sanctions imposed on that country — in response to its advancing nuclear program — are inflicting pain. The new Iranian president, Hasan Rouhani, indicates he is hoping to open a dialogue with the West in an effort to ease those sanctions.
Iran's economy is struggling under sanctions. And Rouhani is a moderate (at least in Iranian terms) who is interested in finding solutions to his nation's economic hardships. Hence the professed willingness to discuss nuclear matters.
But talking and doing are two different things. And where Iran is concerned, no one should lose sight of the fact that no matter how agreeable the president may seem to be, it's the fundamentalist clerics and the Revolutionary Guard who call the shots in that country.
Still, the current effort is newsworthy, because it has been 35 years since the United States and Iran held high-level talks. Not surprisingly, this shift — even if it is little more than symbolic — is drawing interest and criticism.
As you might suspect, concerns are being raised in some quarters that talks might lead to an easing of pressure on Iran to make its nuclear program more transparent and to ensure it is not developing atomic weapons.
Obviously, any agreements need to be verified in a manner that opens the door on Iran's nuclear activities. Empty promises are worthless.
Despite the potential for failure or other problems, we support talks with Iran. We believe it is in America's long-term interests to explore options for achieving this nation's goals in the Middle East short of armed intervention. And that's precisely what has been considered as an option for thwarting Iranian nuclear ambitions.
It may be that Rouhani has concluded his country's nuclear program is a dead end, and not worth the risks associated with it. If so, that's a positive development to foster. The challenge would be to advance negotiations along those lines without sparking a reaction from Iranian hard-liners who are likely to see benefit in the possession of nuclear arms.
Rouhani is displaying diplomatic skills that were decisively lacking in his predecessor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. As a result of this shift, it is essential that the international community recognize that charm and reasonable words are not substitutes for meaningful agreements.
Any talks between the United States and Iran should be seen as preliminary and likely to be part of a long process in order to achieve results. Diplomacy can be slow and frustrating. But handled properly, it is far better than conflict.
Ban a book, see lots of action
(The Mankato Free Press / Mankato, Minn.)
Free speech advocates can't help but get excited this time of year. Banned Books Week is here. It's like an extra holiday. Part of its observance is to look at the list of books that others think you shouldn't read and pick out new items for your reading list.
The books challenged during the year as reported in the Newsletter on Intellectual Freedom are as varied as usual. From an easy-to-read version of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" to Stephen King's "Different Seasons," the works include a wide variety of reading material.
The summary of the complaints are typical of those seen every year, most relating to attempts to remove books from schools. Objectionable language, graphic sexual content, inclusion of gay lifestyles, and references to suicide are among reasons listed.
But among this year's case summaries, a particular gem stands out. In a Chicago school, authorities removed the book "Persepolis," a graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi, because of concerns about "graphic illustrations and language." Students were to study the novel about the author's experience growing up in Iran during the revolution.
When students found out the district banned the book, a wonderful thing happened. They got mad and they got busy. They initiated public discussion on social media, checked out all the library copies of the books, wrote blogs, sent emails, wrote articles for the school paper, contacted the author, staged protests and appeared on local media.
And they won their battle. The book was allowed back into the classroom.
This sort of action sends good shivers up the spine, knowing that today's youth still recognize the importance of First Amendment rights, including the freedom to choose reading materials. When young people fight for their freedom to choose what they want to read, they are also learning tolerance and respect for opposing points of view.
A college librarian who was disappointed about the unenthusiastic response to Banned Books Week activities last year decided to adopt his staff's recommendation to ban a book. (During one of the sparsely attended banned book events, a local author had jokingly volunteered his new book for banning.) The experiment was a success. As soon as you tell someone they can't have access to something, they, of course, want access.
The librarian and his staff got people's attention, and students voiced their protest over the ban in multiple ways (and the author probably sold more books than ever). But more importantly, they delivered the message that any book at any time could be under attack.
Access to thoughts, ideas and other people's words is a right that should be fought for.

CHICAGO -- Keith Foulke spent much of Monday's media session downplaying the obvious angle of his return to town as an All-Star.
He lost his job as the White Sox closer last year and was traded to Oakland in the offseason after 5 1/2 seasons on the South Side. But no, he insisted, there was nothing particularly special about making his All-Star debut back here.
"It is special," he said. "It turned out to be a great situation."
With his wife Mandy and his parents, Pauline and Chuck, in the stands, Foulke coaxed harmless fly balls to center out of Los Angeles' Paul Lo Duca and Florida's Luis Castillo before they all held their breath as Braves shortstop Rafael Furcal's drive carried all the way to the right-field wall.
"That was a little scary," Pauline said with a laugh.
When the ball finally landed in former teammate Magglio Ordonez's glove on the warning track, Foulke broke into a huge grin before being congratulated in front of the mound by current teammate and AL catcher Ramon Hernandez.
"I was a little nervous," he admitted, "but once I saw Magglio kind of set up under it, I knew it was over."
Hernandez, who also caught A's teammate Mark Mulder in the game, was a tad concerned, too.
"I wasn't worried when he hit it, but as it kept going I was like, 'Oh my,'" Hernandez said. "I didn't think it had a chance at first. But it worked out, and I'm just so happy for Keith. It's unbelievable."
Hernandez went 0-for-1, bouncing out to third base in the seventh inning against Billy Wagner. But the thrill of catching two teammates and Anaheim's Brendan Donnelly in his first All-Star Game left him smiling wide in the winners' clubhouse.
Mulder worked the sixth and seventh innings, Donnelly the eighth.
"The first three pitches Mulder threw, I was nervous. I admit it," he said. "But after that it was cool. After that it was just a lot of fun. ... Mark was a little excited, too, I think, trying to do too much."
Mulder, who grew up a White Sox fan in a Windy City suburb, made his All-Star debut Tuesday, too. And despite allowing five hits over two innings, including a 412-foot solo home run to Atlanta Braves outfielder Andruw Jones, he thoroughly enjoyed pitching against the National League's best hitters in front of a sellout crowd that included 18 friends and family members.
"It was awesome," Mulder said. "I mean, I didn't have a splitter all day and gave four of the five hits they got on splits, but I had a blast. And to see Keith get in there and do what he did, that just makes it even better.
"After not having such a good ending to his time here with the Sox, this was great for him personally."
Jones, by the way, has now homered off all three of Oakland's top lefties this year. He went deep against Ted Lilly and Barry Zito when Atlanta visited the Bay Area in early June.
"And they don't even have a video guy in Atlanta," marveled Zito, who was inactive for the game but suited up and took it all in from the AL dugout. "That guy's amazing, man."
Zito was happy for Foulke, too. But he had no idea if his teammate was playing possum about his return to Chicago.
"Keith's a tough dude to read," Zito said. "He doesn't wear his mind on his sleeve like I do, so you never know. But I know he was pumped tonight."
Chuck Foulke insisted that his son wasn't thinking revenge. "He's just happy to be here, he really is. He has no animosity toward [the White Sox]."
Added Mandy Foulke, "I think just getting the save made it extra special."

"IHP has taught me that everything is a learning experience if you make it one—the street you are walking down, the waiter at your restaurant, the people you are waiting in line with, the advertisements on display, the signs and street lights that are visible, the sidewalks. Everything provides different information about the city."
-- Rachel Egan, Spring 2010, Amherst College
Explore how geography, politics, and culture affect whether people can thrive in cities.
The Cities in the 21st Century program examines the intentional and natural forces that guide the development of the world's cities. It combines an innovative urban studies academic curriculum with fieldwork involving public agencies, planners, elected officials, NGOs, and grassroots groups in important world cities where exciting changes are taking place.
Students learn how to "read a city"—an iterative process that hones the ability to observe, question, document, research, and communicate—leading to a better understanding of the interconnected social, physical, economic, environmental, and political systems that affect urban environments.
Students examine how the structure of a city enhances or impedes growth. They learn who exercises power in cities and where power comes from. And they examine the role of state and local government in formulating development policies in a changing world economy and the challenges public policymakers face in light of increasing inequity.
IHP's comparative approach enables students to analyze and contrast major issues across cities and to track how concerns manifest themselves in the planning process, and ultimately, in a course of action.
Key Questions
- Though human needs may be similar around the globe, why does a city's ability to satisfy those needs vary?
- How do people create a sense of place, of community, of urban identity?
- What historical and sociocultural contexts frame the opportunities, constraints, and uncertainties of urban life?
- What must be done—and by whom—to move toward ecologically sustainable cities?
- What are the opportunities for political action by individuals, community organizations, social movements, or even local governments to shape city life?

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

*** Specialties ***
I specialize in classical and musical theater singing and stagecraft.
Broadway Singing, Guitar, Music Performance, Opera Voice, Piano, Singing, Speaking Voice
I am a professional Opera Singer, in Minneapolis from New York City. While that's my "job title," don't let it fool you. I have also spent a number of years touring with jazz, blues, and rock and roll bands as a pianist and guitarist, so my style comes from everywhere. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Vocal Performance with a minor in Piano Performance from Hope College in Holland, MI, and my Master's in Vocal Performance comes from The Ohio State University. I am a professionally managed singer, and have worked on a number of international operatic stages as a baritone. I have been on faculty at NYU-Tisch School of the Arts, and the New School for the Performing Arts in New York City. I have also worked in Musical Theater as a performer and more recently, a music director/conductor.
*** Lesson Details ***
I expect from my students what I expect from myself. If they do not improve every lesson, then I am not doing my job. Music is the great joy of my life, and with that in mind, I take it pretty seriously. However, I also understand that younger students may not have the same goals, and I always take that into account when dealing with high school age and younger. Most of all, making music should be fun, and bring joy to the ones making it, and I try to make this point every time someone opens their mouth to sing or puts their fingers to an instrument. My curriculum is different for every student, depending on their needs, level of ability, etc. but all can expect to learn the same fundamentals of technique for their respective instrument.
*** Studio Equipment ***
I have a piano in my home studio for Voice Lessons
*** Travel Equipment ***
I expect the students to provide a piano or keyboard for piano and voice lessons.

After a time students will learn skills needed to perform a wider range of music

Hello beautiful people, students, parents, and co creators. My name is Jon. I am a 30 year old French native from Paris and I will be your teacher today. I am a happy step father who moved out to Minneapolis in 2014 to live with my wife and her children. I have been a professional photographer for more than 11 years now. Also I am an advanced practitioner of sunyoga, meditation, acupressure. I have participated in healing cancer patients and all kinds of diseases since 2013.
So what about teaching? Everybody wants the best. The best scores. The highest rates. The highest salary. We want control of our life. Everybody does. But in the process it seems we forgot to have quality of living. Quality is the most important. Each person is unique and should be treated in a unique way. What comes first? Question or answer? When you just arrive at your first day at school do you have final exams? First the teacher shares some knowledge during class. Depending on the teacher's talent and passion and love for his work the students will learn something. Then only you have exams. Life is the biggest exam off all. Every day we are being tested. With our family, friends, work. With our patience, our punctuality, our perfection. Hopefully wisdom will come out of this process. All we need is a little support to all grow together. Teaching is a big responsibility. Parents and teachers, it is our duty to teach the best. Let's do it together. Thank you

New (to me)
Hello, went to pick up my cub this morning. I have the advantage of having an open field behind my house that the county mows occasionally, so I took it for a spin. Did OK, the grass was quite tall but I took care of that. It did bog down a bit, but I'll have it cleaned up in a week or so, repeated and timely mowing is the key. Did some after mowing inspection, definitely need some radiator repair or replacement, otherwise no hiccups at all. My inital impression is I think I did OK for under 1000 dollars. I thought at first glance that there were some bolts broken off the mounting bosses on the main frame, it turns out the holes were plugged with cork, and had been painted over. The only implement ever used on this machine is the mower, apparently. My battery box is a bit rough too, have to replace that. So, a few questions: Any recommendations for a replacement radiator, and is there a flushing process to undergo while I'm replacing it? Secondly, it has a woods belly mower, I'm assuming original to the tractor, but I've never seen one painted red, and it's definitely red not repainted red, the decals are still present..sort of. Any insight on this? I'll try to attach a pic here.
Re: New (to me)
Well congratulations. I am sure you are going to do well with your new Cub. I'm on my way out the door (work) so I'm not going to get into your questions right now but just wanted to wish you Best of Luck !
REMEMBER: Keep it correct or you may face the
Re: New (to me)
Early Woods mowers were originally red.
Re: New (to me)
Why do you think you have radiator problems?
Re: New (to me)
Best of luck with your new Cub, it looks solid! Fresh fluids a tune-up and sharpened mowing blades and I bet you will blow right through that field of grass! Hope you get a lot of enjoyment from your new toy.
Re: New (to me)
To answer this, the p.o. mentioned it would need a new radiator soon. There was some obvious staining around the filler cap on the hood, and closer inspection today showed the copper tube (overflow?) is a bit corroded around the filler neck, and there is a small hole in it. Also, when I had it out for it's trial run I could see some leakage and steam from the filler area, when I got finished and parked it there was some obvious coolant puddling in the steering gear area, I'm assuming from the overflow tube since it vents close by. I don't see any obvious leakage signs from the steering gear casting, thankfully, it looks like most is coming from the top of the radiator and running down rt. side and from the overflow tube. I took the screen and side panels off today for a closer look. I'm mulling having a shop clean and pressure test it, of course if it fails I'll end up buying another anyway, and I'm out whatever the radiator shop charges to tell me it's no good. I should note, there is no damage to the radiator fins that I can see, and they weren't too dirty, a little grass but not much. Also, the cap is pretty ancient, probably the wrong one too boot. So, I'm back to my original question, can anyone recommend a good source for a replacement?
Re: New (to me)
Sounds to me like the radiator is overfilled.
Re: New (to me)
There may be a build up of gunk and debris in the block and radiator casting that restricts cooling capacity and fluid flow. Both issues can be addressed by removing the lower radiator hose and the attached casting from the block and fabricate a home made fitting on a garden hose to clean sediment out of the cooling system.

Todd, Jim's advice on the overfill would lead to what you have. The radiator should not be filled to the top.
Also, Carl's answer is a good one also. Here is a link showing how to make the tool he recommends. viewtopic.php?f=138&t=18457
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.

Re: New (to me)
Looks a lot like my '59! Congratulations! yes, my Woods mower is red, yes, my coolant seems to drop (I still fill it to where I can see water before I mow), The cap is non-pressure so it does slop over some when pulled hard, have been using it for 5 years that way, still going good. Would do the flush job, would not go to the expense of removing radiator unless it really shows a leak. Just my PO! Good luck! Dusty B

Re: New (to me)
POs also say things like "ran when parked" or "mowed with it last year" when the tires are rotted off, etc. so their diagnosis isn't always gospel. It sounds like most of the leakage is in the filler neck and overflow tube area. I wouldn't try to remove the radiator just to fix those (reference topic Can of Worms). If you can solder then either repair or replace the filler neck and overflow tube, then get a new cap, the filler neck and cap are available from TM. If you can't solder then there's a thread on how to use a brass bolt in the filler neck to connect to the overflow tube. I wouldn't be afraid to take a wire brush to the filler neck and put a little JB Weld around the outside and see if that doesn't stop the leak after setting up.
Re: New (to me)
Mine burps out on the hood and steams from the cap when in a hard pull. It is usually over full since I hate to chance the level I can't see. I would flush this tractor out, get someone to pressure it up and fill to level if this shows no leaks. My dad says if it aint steaming it aint cuttin! Good looking cub!
Re: New (to me)
Im not sure if you had the same problem as I but i resoldered the neck of my radiator due to a leak as well as the overflow tube, in your case it my be a simple repair
Re: New (to me)
It could very well be the angle of the photo that your tractor is sitting in, but......
I also have a Farmall Cub with the Woods 42 mower on it. During my rebuild process, I eventually managed to get to the Woods mower too. Just where you would use the mower as a step up to get onto the platform, there is a cross arm that is used for supporting the mower from the hydraulics.
On my Woods, the welds on both sides had come loose right at the ends of that round cross bar. Look carefully and make sure your mower is good and tight there. If not, it'll have some vibration until it gets worse. Then, you'll end up with a lot of vibration and excessive wear on other parts - the pulley sheave, belt, etc.

Also make sure you have a 0 psi rad cap. It can't overheat with a 0 psi cap with no water pump. I think mine had a 7 psi cap when I got it but a good friend that is really familiar with the IH showed me or I would still be using it haha.
