The Menil Collection, The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, and the
Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos Offer Distinct but Related Presentations
Major Publication Will Document the Triple-Venue Project
On View at the Menil Collection in Houston December 2, 2012 - March 17, 2013; The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts November 16, 2012 - April 20, 2013; and the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos, October 13, 2012 - January 27, 2013
August 8, 2012 - In an unprecedented collaboration, arts institutions in three cities and on two continents will join together to explore the changing modes and meanings of love in today's global society, as seen by more than two dozen contemporary artists from Africa and a select few of their counterparts from Europe and America.
From October 2012 through April 2013, the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos in Nigeria, The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts in St. Louis, Missouri, and the Menil Collection in Houston will each offer distinct but related presentations of The Progress of Love, with a comprehensive schedule of related events and a major publication documenting the exhibition as a whole.
The three concurrent presentations that make up The Progress of Love constitute a narrative arc, embracing love as an ideal, love as a lived experience, and love as something lost.
The Progress of Love at the Menil Collection (December 2, 2012 - March 17, 2013) reveals how artists in Africa today are questioning, reflecting, and challenging received images and norms of love - sexual, familial, friendly, communal - as derived both from traditional culture and Western influences. The way these aspirations and expectations about love play out in the real world - between and among partners, friends, and families - is the theme of The Progress of Love at the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos, which will present a series of performative exhibitions, performances, and film screenings from October 13, 2012 to January 27, 2013. The end of love is the theme of The Progress of Love at The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, November 16, 2012 - April 20, 2013.
According to Kristina Van Dyke, former curator for collections and research at the Menil Collection and now the director of The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, one of the points of origin of the three-part exhibition - and the inspiration for its title - is a body of sculptural installations by British-Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare (born 1962) based on paintings by Jean-Honoré Fragonard. In these works, the artist dressed headless mannequins in "African" garb in place of Fragonard's courtly 18th-century European figures to suggest the ways in which Africa was implicitly present in a burgeoning leisure class's concepts of love.
"This exhibition is very much inspired by Shonibare's exploration of how historical and contemporary forces affect people's concept of love," Van Dyke states. "It is particularly concerned with the question of how technological 'progress' is reshaping our understanding of love, in Africa as well as in Europe and America."
"The exhibition also opens up dialogue and interaction," says Bisi Silva, independent curator and director of the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos, "through presentations that challenge the audience to expand their possibilities, rethink their preconceptions and prejudices, and engage with the multiple ways in which love affects their lives."
The Progress of Love is co-organized by Kristina Van Dyke and Bisi Silva. The Pulitzer presentation of the exhibition was assisted by Francesca Herndon-Consagra, Senior Curator of Prints, Drawings, and European Paintings at the Blanton Museum of Art at the University of Texas at Austin.
"Timeless" Love in Changing Circumstances
Central to The Progress of Love is the recognition that this most natural and universal of emotions has actually evolved over the centuries, finding different expressions, meanings, and norms in different circumstances. In the case of romantic love - the ideal of a lifelong bond between individuals who choose one another, subsuming sexual desire in an emotional compact - it is even possible to speak of love's having been invented, popularized, and exported.
Scholars trace the literary beginnings of the romantic ideal to the 12th century and the courtly poets in the circle of Marie of France, Countess of Champagne. The visual representation of romantic love among recognizably modern people (as distinguished from historic, literary, or allegorical figures) began in the 18th century, finding one of its first expressions in the cycle of paintings that gives this transatlantic exhibition its title: The Progress of Love (1771-72) by Jean-Honoré Fragonard (The Frick Collection, New York).
As Van Dyke notes, Fragonard created these works in a period when the ideal of romantic love was spreading in Western Europe, concurrent with an expansion of the popular press and a significant increase in wealth and leisure, the latter made possible by vast mercantile profits from colonial possessions and the African slave trade. "It seems that one cannot separate a discrete notion of love in the West from life and love in Africa," Van Dyke comments. "We have been informing one another's ideas about love for centuries."
At The Menil Collection: Global Systems of Love - December 2, 2012 - March 17, 2013
The Progress of Love at the Menil presents works by more than 20 artists from Africa, Europe, and America and examines the ways in which language, mass media, cultural traditions, and socioeconomic forces foster images and expectations about love. The exhibition pays particular attention to the effects of the digital era, asking whether our ideas about love are now coming into closer alignment across the Atlantic.
"With our partner institutions we are presenting an unprecedented gathering of works that prompt us to think more clearly and seriously about the meaning of love, in all its expressions and manifestations," said Menil Director Josef Helfenstein. "The fact that the impetus for this rethinking comes primarily from artists in today's Africa and its diaspora broadens the understanding that our emotional lives have a history, just as our public affairs do - with similarities, differences, and cross-currents. I believe that the The Progress of Love will open eyes and hearts and minds."
Among the 56 works presented at the Houston museum are three commissioned pieces. ONG SBOP by Romuald Hazoumé documents a new project in which the artist established a non-governmental organization in Benin and invited his fellow Beninois to express love for self and others by making contributions to help people in the West lead better lives. This is Lagos II by Emeka Ogboh is a sound installation that brings public and private conversations in Lagos to Houston, and in particular to its Nigerian expatriate community. Eaten By the Heart... by Zina Saro-Wiwa is a web project and video installation showing vignettes of a common activity - kissing - that is frequently represented to the Western public but is seldom shown when the lovers are African.
"The works in this exhibition offer a broad range of images and narratives of love that we have inherited over time and across cultures," said Kristina Van Dyke. "The Progress of Love offers viewers the opportunity to consider how they gauge their own experiences of love through its historical and contemporary conventions and expressions - and to compare their experiences to those in Africa today."
At the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos: The Lived Experience of Love - October 13, 2012 - January 27, 2013
The Progress of Love at the Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos explores contemporary expressions of love with an emphasis on the performative, highlighting the growing interest in live art in Nigeria. The presentation also opens up the possibility for dialogue and interaction that may challenge audiences to rethink prejudices, expand possibilities, and engage with and in all the ways love can affect lives. The presentation will begin with a performative solo exhibition by Valerie Oka on the theme of romantic love, October 13 - November 10, 2012. The presentation will continue with performances by Wura-Natasha Ogunji reflecting on the history of the love between her mother and her father (whom she never met), by Jelili Atiku presenting a new autobiographical work, and with film screenings by Zanele Muholi, Andrew Esiebo, and Adaora Nwandu, November 12 - 25, 2012. The presentation will conclude with an interactive exhibition by Temitayo Ogunbiyi, based on the popular Nigerian phenomenon of sending pre-formatted love notes by text message, December 3, 2012 - January 27, 2013. Inspired by personal experiences, tradition, technology, and literature, artists represented in this presentation within The Progress of Love express loss, absence, pain, and difference, and in so doing invoke memory, challenge prejudice, and articulate togetherness in very personal ways.
According to Bisi Silva, "The Progress of Love marks an important curatorial and thematic shift in the presentation of contemporary art from across Africa by highlighting the complexity with which a universal emotion is expressed, as well as revealing how societal changes affect the way we engage with love today."
At The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts: Love as Mourning - November 16, 2012 - April 20, 2013
The Progress of Love at The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, presented within the contemplative architectural spaces designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando, explores the end of love's spectrum. This section of the exhibition, on view November 16, 2012 - April 20, 2013, will feature works by the British-Nigerian artists Zina Saro-Wiwa and Yinka Shonibare (both also included in the Menil presentation) and by the French artist Sophie Calle.
Two works by Yinka Shonibare will be shown: Addio del Passato (2012), a film scored with an aria from Verdi's La Traviata, and a photograph based on Henry Wallis's painting The Death of Chatterton (1856, The Tate Collection, London). Shonibare substitutes images of Lord Horatio Nelson and his betrayed wife Frances for the doomed young poet and heartbroken courtesan in the original works, turning these romantic tragedies into eulogies for the death of the imperial West. Mourning Class: Nollywood (2010-11) and Sarogua Mourning (2011) by Zina Saro-Wiwa are video presentations focused on lamentation rituals, the latter performed by the artist in memory of her renowned activist father, Ken Saro-Wiwa. Finally, the exhibition will present Take Care of Yourself (2007) by Sophie Calle, a multimedia installation first shown at the 2007 Venice Biennale, documenting the responses of 107 women to a break-up letter the artist had received from her lover, via e-mail. This will be the first presentation of Take Care of Yourself in a U.S. art institution.
According to Francesca Herndon-Consagra, "These works, and the architecture in which they are shown at The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, were created within the last ten years as a way to help people feel and think about their own conditions and struggles regarding loss during a time of catastrophe - financial, political, and environmental - partially caused by Western modes of consumption and greed. Tadao Ando, Yinka Shonibare, Zina Saro-Wiwa, and Sophie Calle all seem to ask, 'What really enriches an individual's life in an age such as ours?' It is important to discover what is essential to human life as a way to constitute a challenge to contemporary civilization."
Publications and Events
The Progress of Love will be documented by a fully illustrated catalogue, including essays by Van Dyke, Silva, and Herndon-Consagra.

Nepal lies between India and China and it contains Mt. Everest, the tallest mountain in the world. The Himalayas here are pretty rugged terrain.
The first civilizations here date to 600 BC in the Kathmandu valley, where the capital is now located. According to Buddhist tenets, the Buddha was born here in 563 BC, incarnating as Prince Siddhartha Gautama and leading the world to enlightenment through liberation from suffering. Many small temples and shrines like this one exist for Buddhists to stop and offer prayers.
Early support of Buddhism gradually gave way to Hinduism and today Nepal is the world's only Hindu monarchy. The kingdom of Nepal was united in 1768 by King Prithvi Narayan Shah, who fled the Moghul invasions of India. Soon after that there was a period of conflict with the British East India Company leading to a treaty recognizing the independence of Nepal -- in 1923!
After WWII Nepal was ruled by monarchy but it arrived at the 1990's split by an official ban on political parties. Intense protest by the pro-democracy movement and the Maoist guerrilla Communist movement led to free elections in 1991, only to be followed by violence between the Nepalese government and Maoist guerillas.
Since the turn of the millennium there have been several important steps taken in the peace process, including a new Constitution for Nepal and a cease fire agreement with the rebels. A compromise government was achieved whereby a Maoist was elected prime minister without his taking control of the armed forces of the country.
At the time of this writing it has been one week since the compromise government has collapsed. We offer our hopes that the citizens and government of this beautiful country will come to a peaceful agreement soon.

Student Testimonials
"I took Dutch beginners classes previously, but had trouble getting past the basics. The structure of the Lagelands classes really helped me get a grip on the grammar, then broaden my vocabulary and understanding with exercises on interesting topics. I would highly recommend these courses for anyone wanting to learn Dutch." Kathleen Nafus (engineer, Belgium)
"The intermediate Dutch course Hogelands was first class with lots of interesting texts and exercises, always challenging and never boring. I had a great teacher - motivating and encouraging us in a fun way. As a professional linguist, I found the course especially good as it went at a fast pace and enabled me to make real progress." Wendy Wingham (linguist, UK)
"The online course in Early Modern Dutch was extremely helpful for my research. Although it is taught online, it is very well-structured, with clearly defined exercises and drills. Rather than a straight translation course, the exercises are designed to draw the reader's attention to specific problems of translation and ambiguities in the assigned text. This is very helpful for anyone working directly with early modern sources. The instructor's vast scholarly knowledge and patience were great assets. I highly recommend it." A professor from New York University (US)
"I was a student on the intermediate Dutch course, Hogelands and all lessons were conducted via Skype. Even though I was a novice when it came to online learning, my tutor talked me through the technical problems and delivered the material clearly and in a manner which ensured that my skills in the Dutch language increased enormously. My tutor taught structured lessons, where the aim was made clear from the beginning, and she drew on the supporting online material. It was a pleasure to be a member of this course." Michael Clifford (translator, Germany)
"My course through the UCL Language Centre was an excellent experience. I got all the flexibility one usually receives from an online course but more importantly got a lot of one on one time with the course instructor. She was great with accommodating my busy schedule and always had insightful comments to help me improve my translations. If I ever need more acquire or improve my language skills in the future I know where to look." Bob Tiegs (PhD student, US)
"I have a full time job and my study is purely vocational and so the computer based courses provided by UCL have been absolutely brilliant for my situation. I can study or complete the work at a time to suit me and yet I have had the full back up of the University and staff to assist me with my learning. The course material and level of help has provided me with everything that I required and I would have no hesitation in recommending one of these courses of study. Distance learning over the internet is straight forward and provides a high quality academic package at an affordable cost." Graham Miles (financial advisor, UK)

Cope2: Cope with the Truth
Puerto Rico
Blen 167 BNA explains a few facts about the development of graffiti in the Boricua homeland.
Puerto Rico's graffiti from the 1980s is more or less the same as that of any other country: very much inspired by "Style Wars" and Subway Art. But Puerto Rico experienced something unique that didn't happen in many other countries: Old school writers from places like New York were sent off to spend their summers with family in Puerto Rico. Writers like Flite TDS, Bio TATS Cru, Tez 3, Duke and many others were the biggest inspirations to Puerto Rican graffiti; later came many others.

Vintage Paint: The Big Picture
Putting art onto the art supplies, this pioneer American brand chooses to target a domestic audience with its graphic-design flash.
Text and photos by the CMC Paint Nerds.
PlastiKote is not only one of the original brands that came in the first spray canister format, it is also one of the most overlooked brands. An American paint that also successfully marketed itself in Australia, the company has made many different lines of paint over the years and is currently a subsidiary of Valspar. For collectors, PlastiKote's most significant contribution was its production of what have come to be known as "picture cans," where individual labels were designed under one brand and the color of the can's contents was depicted by an illustration unique to that color. PlastiKote was the largest company to employ such a tactic, and its picture cans are well regarded and tidily dressed. Colors such as Bittersweet generally had the namesake plant as the image, whereas others showcased a bit more of the creativity of the design team (if there even was one). Swift Red plays upon the old time U.S. image of a red wagon, while Alpine Blue featured a very 1960s spike-tread hiking boot.
In many cases, companies that made "picture cans" (which included Fuller/Fuller O'Brien, Big Bantam, Chase and Spruce) were minor players, making the cans and color ranges slow to be discovered. PlastiKote was the major exception: their picture cans were showcased in bright industry adverts such as this one. The can designs often used a large amount of white neutral space, making the color illustration even more prominent and adding impact to the color name identification.
Many efforts were made over the years to vary can sizes for smaller and sometimes more specific consumer needs. The three-ounce can still exists today and is marketed as a "hobby" or "touch-up" product. Nybco's Big Bantam line seemed to market its paint as themed for nurseries or children's effects. Colors included Tisket Tasket Yellow and this Little Boy Blue. Nybco's bucolic designs for Big Bantam makes them one of the most popular "picture-can" series.

Holy Bats, Man!
Graffiti writers tend to be out late night and in some strange places, which results in seeing a number of bizarre scenes. Here are some of their stories.
Illustration by Akil Nuru
I remember me and my old partner getting raided after doing a freight somewhere in upstate NY. The cops chased us into an abandoned warehouse in the dead of night. It was pitch black in there and the place was surrounded with cops. We were making our way through the place by feeling and touching the walls when my partner found a door. As soon as he opened it, I heard this crazy, high-pitched noise that got very loud, very fast… A noise unlike anything that I had heard before. All of a sudden we got bum rushed by a bunch of bats. They were everywhere. I closed my eyes and felt them all over as they whipped by us…

Puerto Rico: La Isla Del Encanto
El Gitano explains why this Caribbean Gem is, indeed, "The Island of Enchantment."
Photography by Shaun Baron
Puerto Rico is a U.S. colony located in the Caribbean. U.S. citizens by birth, Puerto Ricans enjoy a very limited democracy, similar to their Cuban neighbors who are allowed to vote for local officials but not for Fidel Castro. Puerto Rico is subject to U.S. laws and although Obama is their president, Puerto Ricans are prohibited from voting for president and have no representation in the U.S. Congress. (Elections are held for governor, mayors, etc.) This has fueled the century-old debate about whether PR should eventually become the 51st state or its own separate nation. Although Spanish is the main language, in the cities many speak or understand English. About 100 miles long and 35 miles wide, with a population of 4 million, this small island is packed with destinations.

Interview by Stefanie Grossman
What's going on with Queen Andrea?
Queen Andrea: I've been busier than ever these days. Superfreshstudio.com is where my new illustration, art and apparel projects will live, separated from my commercial endeavors and client work. A lot is happening in early 2012, including a new poster series, a solo show of paintings, toys and apparel for KidRobot, and special SuperFresh tees and bags. I paint murals often and stay in the graffiti mix and squeeze into as many group shows and big art fairs that I can. It's an amazing time for the urban art world.

Banksy: The Stencil Turns Censor
Banksy: champion of free speech? With regards to a recent TV documentary, the answer is a resounding "NO."
An editorial featuring the personal opinions of Phil Tanfield, editor-in-chief of The Infamous.
Illustration by Anthony Arias
In the last issue of The Infamous we covered London's legendary Robbo. Most people in the culture (and the media) have focused on his beef with Banksy as the highlight of, if not the reason for, Robbo's return. In August 2011 Britain's Channel 4 aired "Graffiti Wars," a documentary not just about Robbo and Banksy, but about the mentality of the graffiti writer, the differences between "graffiti" and "street art," and the burgeoning art market for the "popular and commercially successful version" of street art personified by Banksy. It features municipal workers in London who mercilessly buff graffiti while leaving "street art" untouched, and preserving, protecting and even restoring Banksy's work when it is dissed by graffiti writers. And it tells the story of "Blek la Rat," Paris' original street artist from the early-1980s, whose trademark rat was "closely replicated" by Banksy, using a Banksy quote from a British newspaper admitting as much.

|Lady Green subdues Vikings in regional semi
|Friday, March 08, 2013 1:34 PM
The top-ranked Big Green defeated the Vikings 52-29 in a Division IV regional semifinal at the Elida Fieldhouse. However, the Big Green had to work hard in the second half before they finally took control of this game against their Putnam County League rivals.
The win sends the Big Green (26-0) into Saturday night's regional final against Arcadia (23-3) at 7:30 p.m. at the Elida Fieldhouse. The Redskins advanced to the finals with a 46-36 win over Pettisville in the first game Thursday night at Elida.
The Vikings saw their season end at 17-9.
While the final score indicates Ottoville may have won easily, it was anything but a walk through the park for the Lady Green.
Ottoville had a 19-6 lead after the opening quarter as they went on an 8-2 run at the end of the quarter that included a 3-point play from Rachel Beining, a Nicole Vorst 3-pointer and a basket from Abby Siefker. Kendra Gerten had the Vikings' two points during the run.
Ottoville went up 22-6 to start the second quarter as Beining converted another 3-point play. Seconds later, Siefker picked up her second foul and spent the rest of the quarter on the bench. It was the opening the Vikings needed to make a run at the Lady Green.
Leipsic went on a 10-0 run to close within six points as Haley Gerten drained four straight free throws, followed by baskets from Maddie Steffan, Amber Gerdeman and Kelly Nadler, before Taylor Mangas hit a 3-pointer to end the Leipsic run. Ottoville extended their lead back out to 10 as Vorst hit a 3-pointer before Steffan came up with a steal and basket that had the lead back down to eight. A basket by Beining — off a long pass — just before the halftime buzzer had the Big Green up 10 points at the break.
After some quick adjustments at halftime, the Big Green regained control of the contest with a 7-0 run to start the third quarter. The difference in Ottoville's play was the return to the lineup of Siefker and Rachel Turnwald after both players spent time on the bench in the opening half in foul trouble.
"We kind of weathered the storm in the first half," Ottoville coach Dave Kleman said. "There are flows and ebbs in every game. I thought we did a nice job weathering the storm, then we made our run. We were in some foul trouble the first half and I felt our bench came in and did a nice job plugging the holes. I felt comfortable with the lead going into half and coming out the second half, Abby and Rachel Turnwald were well rested."
Siefker opened the second-half scoring with a free throw before Turnwald knocked down a pair of charity tosses. After a Leipsic timeout two minutes into the quarter, Turnwald struck again when she nailed a 3-pointer, then went to the free-throw line to finish off a 4-point play. Leipsic responded with baskets by Gerdeman and Morman that had them within 13 points before Ottoville closed out the quarter with a 5-0 run as Siefker hit three free throws and Turnwald two more that had the Big Green up 42-24.
"That's what good teams do," Leipsic coach Gary Kreinbrink said. "They are so explosive. I was proud of our kids the second quarter, the way they fought back because we could have gotten blown out the first half. We had it down to six points but they are good. You can take away their inside and they hit threes; try to get aggressive with their guards on the perimeter, they throw it inside and score with Siefker and Beining. They are a pretty complete team."
Leipsic opened the fourth-quarter scoring with two free throws by Morman before the Big Green went on a 10-0 run that was finished off as Ottoville was clearing the bench to get everyone playing time. The Vikings scored the final points of the night as Nicole Kreinbrink hit a 3-pointer.
Ottoville had five players between nine and 12 points in the game, led by Turnwald with 12 points, while Beining and Mangas both had 10 and Siefker and Vorst both had nine points. Vorst also had five rebounds and six steals and Siefker grabbed five rebounds as well.
"That's kind of normal for us," Kleman said. "Every once in a while, we get someone up in the 20s with an exceptional game, but that's the way we play and Arcadia does the same thing. That's what it takes to get this far in tournament."
Morman led the Vikings with seven points and Gerdeman had five points. Haley Gerten had four points, four assists and four rebounds for Leipsic, which will graduate just two seniors from their first-ever regional team.

Richard and Judy reveal death pact
11:16am Monday 12th May 2014 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2014
R ichard Madeley and Judy Finnigan have given each other "a pledge" to help end their lives if they become seriously ill.
The celebrity couple, who have just announced their choices for their latest book club, said the recent death of Richard's mother had got them thinking about the subject.
He told the Daily Telegraph: " If Judy was really ill and in logical mind, and at that point where you just need a little push to go over the edge I wouldn't give a tuppenny f*** if there was a risk of being prosecuted. I'd do what was right for my wife. And I'd take the consequences. That is your job, that is your responsibility as a partner."
Judy agreed, telling the newspaper: " And I'd do the same. Stuff it all. We've made ourselves give each other a pledge along those lines."
She added: " I remember when my mum died in 2007 and I felt like I'd been kicked in the stomach. I felt something similar with Richard's mum. It's just the shock of death. It is so b****y final."
The former daytime TV favourites became ho usehold names presenting This Morning on ITV for 13 years before the pair moved to Channel 4 where their show, Richard And Judy, ran for seven years.

Because it is the seat of the Japanese government and the home of the Imperial Family, Tokyo is the de facto capital of Japan. The firebombings of WWII in 1945, with 75,000 to 200,000 killed and half of the city destroyed, were almost as devastating as the atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined. After the war, Tokyo was completely rebuilt. Today, Tokyo is one of the three world finance "command centers," along with New York and London.

Creamy Chicken and Beef Recipe
Bacon and canned cream of Mushroom soup dress up tender chicken in Jane Thocher's recipe. "I relied on this dish often when our children lived at home," recalls the Hart, Michigan reader. "Since it cooked while I was at work, the only thing left to do was prepare noodles and fix a salad."
- 6 bacon strips
- 1 package (2-1/2 ounces) thinly sliced dried beef
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- Hot cooked noodles
- In a skillet, partially cook bacon over medium heat. Drain on paper towels. Place beef in a greased 3-qt. slow cooker. Fold chicken pieces in half and wrap a bacon strip around each; place over the beef.
- Combine the flour, soup and sour cream until blended; spread over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until chicken juices run clear. Serve over noodles. Yield: 6 servings.

Rail shortcut's gone; NJ Transit, riders debate safety
For two years, Lino Brescia has been enjoying one of the shortest, most enjoyable commutes to New York of anyone who lives in central Bergen County.
"Just 45 minutes door to door — no driving, no parking, no hassles," said the Hasbrouck Heights commuter as he pushed through a broken gate behind an abandoned Route 17 gas station and walked a narrow, trash-filled trail to a rail stop at the Teterboro border.
Brescia credits his dream commute to NJ Transit's expanded Pascack Valley line, whose trains zip him to the Secaucus station where he transfers to a train bound for Manhattan.
But for him and 100 others, commuting will soon take more than an hour, and it will get much more treacherous because NJ Transit is spending $100,000 to build an 8-foot-high, 300-foot-long fence to block access to their Teterboro stop. Instead of a short walk, commuters will have to leg it on crowded Route 46 to reach Teterboro.
"Right now, they're trespassing," NJ Transit spokesman John Durso explained firmly.
True. For decades, commuters have been breaking the law by crossing the tracks from densely populated Hasbrouck Heights, a borough of 12,000 at the nexus of Routes 17 and 46, to the rail stop in neighboring Teterboro where jobs far outnumber its meager population of 67.
But it's also true that NJ Transit has ignored these transgressions for decades at Teterboro and elsewhere while urging commuters to leave their cars at home and shift to buses and trains, especially when commuting to New York. At the same time, industrial development has expanded the job market in Teterboro whose workers disembark from buses on Route 17 and cross the same commuter tracks to their jobs at Teterboro Airport and several factories and warehouses there.
In 2011, however, NJ Transit got more aggressive about trespassing after its trains killed three teens in Garfield and Wayne. These deaths prompted the creation of a safety panel that recommended reform, including a directive requiring conductors to aggressively report "trespasser intrusions," the main cause of 17 deaths by its trains in 2012 and 23 in 2011.
As a result, "15 separate locations were identified," Durso said, "and Teterboro was one of them" although the stop had not been the scene of a pedestrian death since 1989. While pedestrian track intrusions are fairly common statewide, Durso said, trespassing at the Teterboro stop had been "especially brazen."
"We remind … customers that the only safe and legal way to access the station is from Green Street," he said.
"We get what they're saying," said Brescia, a technology specialist for Cisco Systems Inc. "But what they're asking us to do is also very unsafe."
Once the fence is built, Brescia and others interviewed last week will face a circuitous, harrowing, mile-long daily walk along busy Route 46 and its exit and entrance ramps to reach the Teterboro stop.
"We could also drive to the little lot there," he conceded, "but there's a long wait to get a space."
The quarterly price is $120 and there is a wait list.
"A main reason I live in Hasbrouck Heights is the short commute," added the father of two, who recently expanded the seven-room split-level he bought nearly 16 years ago.
What can be done when the people who run transportationexpand mass transit on lines like the Pascack Valley, then make it inconvenient for customers to leave their cars at home so they can use the expanded line?
"For years, we've asked for a [pedestrian] flyover so people from our town can walk to the Teterboro station," said Hasbrouck Heights Mayor Rose Heck. "But there's never any federal money to get it done."
There's not much room either. A PSE&G substation, an abandoned gas station and several other Hasbrouck Heights businesses make up the border with Teterboro.
Brescia has a less expensive idea. "They should let us board the trains from the Hasbrouck Heights side," he said.
Conductors for Operation Lifesaver, a non-profit group of trainmen, said standard safety protocols don't usually allow passenger doors to open for simultaneous boarding on two sides. But staggered boarding on each side might be realistic, such as 8:05 a.m. on the Teterboro side and 8:20 a.m. on the Hasbrouck Heights side. Of course, boarding platforms would be needed for the Hasbrouck side and engineering and legal issues would have to be resolved.

At 120 pounds, Gari is big, but not exactly cuddly. The water-loving capybara is like another child to Buda resident, Melanie Typaldos.
His full name is Garibaldi Rous.
"It comes from "rodent of unusual size, which is a reference to the "Princess Bride." So, he is one of the three terrors of the fire swamp," Typaldos said.
Capybaras are known as the world's largest rodents, but Gari's lifestyle is far from what you might imagine.
He swims. He goes for walks, rides in cars and he even gets to sleep in bed with Melanie, when he feels like it.
"He wants to be around people all the time. They're herd animals. In the wild, they're always with other capybaras, so he wants to be with us. We're his herd," Typaldos said.
Capybaras are herbivores, grazing mainly on grasses and aquatic plants. In case you hadn't noticed, Gari doesn't graze.
"He's expensive to feed, whereas the grass would be free," she said.
He feeds on all kinds of lettuce, corn and a wide variety of treats, such as frosted mini-wheats.
"My daughter and I and actually my son too, the three of us took a trip down to Venezuela and we saw the capybaras in the wild," Typaldos said. "I feel like the more people get to know capybaras and appreciate them, the better chance they have of surviving in the wild."
Technically, Gari's species is not threatened, but they are hunted for their meat and hides. Melanie says he probably would have been lunch out in the wild.
"I don't know how people don't know about capybaras," she said.
She found him through a breeder and now, Gari lives a pampered life, meeting new people every time Melanie takes him for a ride.

Antidepressants in the class called SSRIs (Prozac, Luvox, Paxil, Zoloft, Celexa, Lexapro) could potentially increase the risk for brain cancer, according to some researchers.
Professor John Gordon of Birmingham University found that SSRIs encouraged the growth of Burkitt's Lymphoma, a type of cancer which affects the lymphatic system, in test tube experiments. It is speculated that if they can affect the growth of this type of cancer they might also affect brain cancers in a similar way.
The mechanism of action for this increased risk is by blocking the body's natural ability to kill tumor cells. Gordon, whose results have been published online in the journal Blood, says that serotonin is a key player in stimulating apoptosis, a natural programmed cell death which brings into control runaway cell growth. Without this process to rein in these renegade cells, cancer may develop.
It is not known if these data can be extrapolated to mean that humans are at increased risk for developing cancer. Thus far, no SSRI-cancer link has been observed in clinical practice and drug company officials speculate that the high dose used in Gordon's experiment may not provide a reliable indicator of what happens in the patient.
The specific drugs investigated by Gordon were Prozac, Paxil and Celexa.Source: Adamantios Serafeim, Gillian Grafton, Anita Chamba, Christopher D. Gregory, Randy D. Blakely, Norman G. Bowery, Nicholas M. Barnes, and John Gordon. "5-Hydroxytryptamine drives apoptosis in biopsylike Burkitt lymphoma cells: reversal by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors."

Not having Griffin fully engaged early on killed any chance of rebuilding a cohesive offensive unit. Griffin looks slower, which would be expected, and constructing a team for the new year without the main cog present was a formula sure to fail.
This isn't a case where the quarterback isn't up to the job. It's more of a situation where Griffin is working his way – both mentally and physically – back into the player he was last year. How long that will take remains the unanswered question.
For Griffin's sake, the Redskins better play this one right. Another serious injury would spell disaster.

TICONDEROGA — A "Meet the Candidates Night" is planned for September 4 at 7 p.m. at the Chilson Hill Community Center.
The Chilson District contains the highest number of registered voters. The candidates will address some of the most important issues of current concern to Ticonderoga citizens and landowners.

This meeting will be moderated by Lesli Chandler and Margaret Lauman. The media will be invited for appropriate subsequent reporting and the session will be video recorded.
It is hoped that all concerned voters will attend this meeting. Now is an opportunity to evaluate the next Town Board supervisor and Town Board member candidates to determine the best qualified to represent local issues of concern in Ticonderoga today as well as candidates willing to stand united with the voice, vote and concerns of the people in Ticonderoga to determine the future of Ticonderoga on all levels.
The topics of debate will be given to all candidates prior to this meeting so they might become adequately informed to sufficiently respond to the questions they will be asked and will cover the issues that most concern the citizens of Ticonderoga today.

3.23/5 rDev -12.2%
Appearance-Pours a clear light amber with a large soapy head with some good lacing.
Smell-Very low and disappointing hop aroma. More malt than hops here.
Taste-Balanced hop and malt. Hops are zesty citrus and some pine resin later. Crisp, dry finish.
Middling carbonation, palate scrubbing zesty flavor makes for good mouthfeel.
Drinkability-Light and refreshing IPA. Aroma left much to be desired and I seem to remember more finishing hops in the past. A good summer, hot weather IPA.

Alaskan IPA has a light golden appearance and is very, very clear. Copious small carbonation bubbles rush upward through the beer. The head is nearly pure-white and is about a finger tall after a strong pour into a pint glass. The lacing is arch-like and sticky.
The aroma is not very potent and smells rather light and grainy. There is a subtly citrus and mint hop presence which is balanced by slight caramel and biscuit malt aroma. Pleasant, but not very strong.
I am slightly more impressed by the taste than by the smell. There is a decent balance of caramel and pale malts and not-too-bitter citrus hops. Light notes of grapefruit, orange rind, and mint come through near the end, and the finish is light and bitter from the bittering hops.
The mouthfeel is definitely on the lighter side for the style, but has a nice effervescence to it from the carbonation. The hops provide a nice little nip on the sides of my palate and the finish has just a slightly bitter, clean hop presence.
I think this has more in common with APAs that I've had than AIPAs. Everything about the beer was just a little lighter and subdued than I usually like from an IPA. Solid beer, but perhaps just a little too subtle for the style.

Poured from a 12oz bottle
Typical color, pale golden.
The nose is flowery and earthy hops with peachy,fruity undertones. It's not very pungent, almost hard to smell.
It tastes more like an English style to me with more earthy flavors and a quick finish that's not very bitter or flavorful.
It's easy to drink, but the flavors don't really make me want to drink more. It's just too light all around and might go better with food.

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine May 2007.
This brand had a short "keg only" showing last summer, but beer enthusiasts cried out for more. Alaskan appeased the thirsty crowd with their IPA, now bottled year-round.
Drops into the glass with a short stack of foam that subsides to a very sticky yet thin lace. A tad hazed within the dim golden-colored brew. Evergreen, hemp and lemon zest hop aromas attack the nose (in a loving way).
No lack of smoothness here--the moderate body holds onto a light carbonation that lends a dash of crispness to the mouthfeel. Big healthy herbal, hemp seed, blond tobacco and ruby red grapefruit hop flavors jump up first. Hop bitterness is not shy, with a resin burn that does not seem to want to go away. Malt sweetness and bread flavors are only underlying flavors. Finishes bitter but fresh, with a long lingering hop flavor in the dryness.
Drinkability scores high, which is great, but remember this beer is 6.2 percent ABV. Spot-on for the style and a hophead's dream. A half-dozen Northwest oysters per bottle is a must--Barron Point, Penn Cove and Willapa Bay would all be especially delicious with this.

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear golden yellow with a big rocky white head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is mild spicy and grassy hops with some sweet slightly vegetal malts.
The flavor is some sweet malts with a earthy, grassy hop finish that has some decent bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with some sharp carbonation.
Overall, a pretty average IPA. I didn't really care for the flavor profile. I prefer brighter fruitier hops.

12 ounce bottle w/o freshness info. Pours slightly hazed, lighter amber, almost golden. Off white head, tiny bubbles and leaving spotty light lacing. Nice fresh, fruity (I get mostly grapefruit) and grainy hop nose. Quite respectable West coast IPA. Fresh, citric hops go down easy. Not a palate wrecker, but a better then average and enjoyable hoppy ale. Worth a try.

The beer pours a yellow color with a white head. The aroma is biscuit malt with some nice orange citrus and tropical fruit notes. The flavor has a decent amount of bitterness with some orange citrus and a touch of pine. There is also a hint of biscuit and toffee malt, but the hops are far more present than the malt. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Not a great IPA, but a nice drinker that won't disappoint.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint. Best by date of July 23, 2011.
Appearance: Clear, light gold without much head and no lacing. Looks a little too lager-like.
Smell: Tangerine, with light grapefruit and tropical notes. Some toasted malts.
Taste: Dry, toasted malt backbone with borderline tart grapefruit and tangerine co-mingling. Finish is slightly bitter and spicy, but fairly light overall for an IPA.
Feel: Moderate carbonation, light to medium body with a very dry finish. A little lighter than I prefer but the tart-like dryness is great.
Overall: Very nice everyday IPA. Not too bold on flavor, but what is present is quite enjoyable.

Clear gold pour with a wall of bubbles for a head. Nice release of citrus hops, with some pine and soap. Bit more soap in the taste, but that turns quickly into buttery hops and toasty malt. Not bad, but not nearly as good as others more easily available.

Poured form the tap, this beer had a dark amber colour to it with minimal head. The smell was like any other IPA, very hoppy upfront with a slight citrus nose. The taste is what surprised me the most; it wasn't nearly as hoppy as usual IPAs. This IPA concentrated much more on the hop-flavour rather than hop-bitterness. I usually don't go for IPAs, but this one is great.
Would I buy it again? Absolutely.

Bottle (2011)
Glowing deep orange. Thick white head. Decent lacing.
Hoppy aroma without beating you over the head. Some citrus elements, particularly in the form of grapefruit and lemon.
A relatively bitter IPA. Incredibly drinkable. Obvious malt backbone but a hop-centered and bitter focused beer. Delicious.
A rich, medium to thick mouthfeel, plenty of carbonation. Very nice.
A delicious, tasty, and incredibly drinkable IPA.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a tall pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a bright and clear golden orange with a moderate amount of bubbles. About two fingers of white head that slowly fade into a thin creamy layer. Leaves a lot of lacing.
Smell: A juicy and earthy hop forward aroma with hints of citrus fruit and pine. Upfront citrus hops with hints of orange peel, grapefruit, pineapple, lemon, and tangerine. Big scent of pine resin. Also some grassy hop hints. Soft pale malt background with hints of grains, cracker, and yeast. Very hop forward and ripe smelling. Pretty solid.
Taste: Like it smells, a ripe and juicy hop driven taste with good notes of citrus and pine. Citrus hops with some upfront notes of grapefruit, orange peel, lemon, pineapple, and tangerine. Big taste of piney hops. Earthy notes of pine resin. Soft bready malt background presence with notes of grains, cracker, and yeast. Very hop dominate and pretty good taste.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Juicy, slightly oily, and pretty drying on the finish. Nicely smooth.
Overall: A pretty solid IPA. Good pine and citrus bite with a balanced smooth body.

A yellow ipa, tiny bubbles leave behind a low amount of lace that dissipates quickly. Aroma is not hop pungent.
Taste, light, refreshing and hoppy. A distinct crispness on tap v. bottles I've had (and I've had a lot of them). Nothing real adventurous here, you get a standard west coast hop level for a year round release single ipa, with a little less than average heft with it.
Good price on this stuff helps drinkability.

3.53/5 rDev -4.1%
pale golden copper hue with a bright wite head fine even lacing. Aroma has hints of citrus/floral notes. A biscuit doughy center in the nose really stands out. Flavor wise sharp piercing bitterness really brings out citrus/floral notes more pale biscuit semi sweet malt tones, pretty hop sided but that's okay. Not brilliant but I'd imagine hops are a tough comodity in Alaska. Unliked Smoked salmon and malts. Mouthfeel is sturdily carbonated with a light to medium bodied. Drinkabiliy overall is solid an approachable early IPA that I would definitely swing for especially on tap.

From 3,500 feet, you can barely even see the wild horses roaming Chincoteague Island. But when you're hang gliding alongside an instructor from Virginia Hang Gliding, it doesn't seem to matter much. What you can see from these towering heights are awe-inspiring views of waves crashing in from both the Atlantic and the Chesapeake Bay while you feel the adrenaline rush of soaring through the air. Clients help maneuver the glider over Virginia's scenic beaches, far above the other visitors and the hundreds of bottles containing notes about boring islands. The whole time, they rest safe in the knowledge that they're in the capable hands of one of the experienced pros who ride along.
Inside Stratosphere Trampoline Park, groups of daring jumpers defy the Earth's fierce gravitational grip upon grids of trampolines. Whether leaping through open jump sessions or playing games of dodgeball, visitors aerially traverse the wide arenas, rocketing off angled surfaces and diving into pits full of foam cubes. And since the planet's will cannot be fought forever, the park also contains a set of batting cages, where visitors can work towards their goal of one day sending their spherical projectiles into geosynchronous orbit.
CoCo's Funhouse's colorful 7,500-square-foot interior welcomes youngsters aged 2?10 to play safely as they bounce off air-filled walls and jump on giant inflatables. Private party rooms help groups celebrate birthdays and other events with ample balloons, extra-large pizzas, popsicles, and drinks.
With the help of Relentless Watersports' water-powered jet pack, it only takes a few seconds to go from lazily floating on the surface of the water to shooting through the sky. An instructor engages the jet pack's hand throttles, triggering its 200-horsepower engine to send streams of water coursing through a 10-meter hose, which in turn churns the water around you to launch you gracefully into the air. You can reach heights of up to 30 feet, much like a very tentative and cautious eagle.
This process might sound intimidating, but that's where the certified and CPR-trained instructors come in. They teach aquatic explorers the safety rules and techniques necessary to operate a JetLev jet pack, covering how to literally walk on water, hover above the water's surface, and turn on a dime.
A true golf legend with nine major championships to his name, Gary Player became a highly sought-after golf-course architect once his playing days were over. River Run Golf Course is one of his designs, which he saw to completion in 1991. The golf course exhibits many elements that highlight his skills as both an architect and a golfer, including fast greens that require a deft touch; shots over water that demand steely nerves; and dogleg turns that reward shot shaping and sharp x-ray vision through the trees. Golfers can cap off rounds with a visit to The Players Club, where they can dine on gourmet burgers, sandwiches, and seafood.
With fishing boats, charters, and dolphin- and whale-watching trips departing from dawn until dusk, the captains at Fisherman?s Wharf keep the docks buzzing with activity. This organized schedule of comings and goings can be attributed to the fact that four generations of the same family have been overseeing the fleet and learning the ropes for more than 70 years.
