The electoral campaign in Ukraine has come to its homestretch. To predict the results of the election in a foreign country is a mug's game, especially if this foreign country is the Ukraine with its unstable political situation, its struggles between numerous regional groups of influence and clans, and finally with its political parties' competition. No matter how the seats in the future parliament are finally distributed, the major camps are defined. Whichever party is going to get more mandates, the Ukraine will be in for another circle of political instability.
The confrontation still remains between two political lines, represented by Viktor Yushchenko and Yuliya Tymoshenko, taking no notice of all of the other political parties and groups. Russian observers, who are closely watching Viktor Yanukovych's activity, once again fail to notice the main thing. Yanukovych's Party of Regions might represent interests of a certain clan, but it doesn't formulate any intelligible strategy of social and economic development. It-s clear enough: the main objective of such political forces is to maintain business interests of the clan they represent (in this case it is the Donetsk financial and business group), under whatever circumstances the country is currently in. In a situation when the major confrontation is going on between Yushchenko and Tymoshenko, the only thing left for Yanukovych is to fluctuate unsystematically around offering his services and clarifying who he should adhere to this time. The left parties — Socialists and Communists — turned out to absolutely lack any political strategy. The Communists' radicalism yields to that of Tymoshenko, they are split up; the Socialists who cling to their seats in the government, are little by little losing their prestige. Once powerful and influential, these parties are now decaying. The fact that Yushchenko and Tymoshenko will sooner or later clash in a political confrontation, was obvious back when the "orange revolution" had just begun. Usually any revolutionary process tends to drastically change its political configuration, i.e. former allies become enemies. And it's not the impact of the winners' ambitions. It's a social and political logic. The political reform is only an outward goal of the game — whether Ukraine is going to become a parliamentary republic or stay presidential. In reality, the controversy is more deep-rooted. There was no revolution in Ukraine — that is the main problem. The movements which started out as revolutionary, from the very beginning were planned by the opposition strategists as an "orange revolution" show, free of any social content. To make this show convincing, however, bizarre mass forces were to be involved. Yuliya Tymoshenko happened to become the leader of these forces (maybe against her will). Exactly this, but not personal disagreements determined the inevitable break-up. People came in the streets not out of love for Yushchenko, but being tired of the system. They got fed up with inequality, poverty, social injustice, and corruption. They were against the social and political course, pursued by former president Leonid Kuhma. All their hopes and insults were not however shaped into a clear political program or even a system of demands. Vague expectations of the up-coming changes came out as a vote for Yushchenko and sympathy towards Tymoshenko. As it happens in the fairy tales about genie people finally got not what they actually wanted, but what was suddenly articulated and said aloud. In other words, they wanted social justice and got President Yushchenko instead. Under such circumstances Tymoshenko immediately became a symbol of the initial pure hopes which failed to come true. She was like a magnet for those preserving this hope. There is simply no other existing political niche suitable for her. Those who intend to stop the revolutionary process support Yushchenko, those who want to let it develop, concentrate around Tymoshenko. Thus, we get Ukrainian Jacobins and Girondists. Tymoshenko's populism originally consisted in her effort to meet the social expectations by raising benefits, stimulating salary growth, and simultaneously tightening inflation. Very soon it became clear that a policy of the kind firstly contradicts the liberal principles spread within the ruling elite; secondly, it lacks funds. These funds could have been accumulated through the re-privatization, but it would inevitably include some elements of the re-nationalization, with the economic course turning to the left (again, independently of the initial intentions of Tymoshenko and her team). The ruling elite could not put up with it, Tymoshenko's career as a prime-minister had disastrously come to an end, and she automatically became a member of the opposition. Yushchenko's situation is no better. He tries to go on with his neoliberal policy, which before had been pursued by Kuchma, Yanukovych, and Yushchenko himself when he was prime-minister. However, the Ukrainians don't support this policy. Their trust in such a political course is exhausted. It was exactly the protest against this social course that granted Yushchenko the presidency in 2004. By proceeding with his predecessors-'policy he is little by little exhausting the people's confidence. That is why he may not allow realization of a political reform aimed at democratizing the institute of the state power. The problem with the political reform is not in its potential ability to limit the president's power. It will make it possible to put pressure from below, which will chaotically correct the economic course. Whether Tymoshenko will rise on this wave or someone more radical will rise instead — it's just a question of time. Meanwhile, by suppressing this pressure from below and blocking the already promised political reform, Yushchenko just keeps losing his supporters among the population, as he gets an image of a liar and an opponent to the democracy, for which sake he was calling people out in the streets just a year ago. The two main participants of the political drama have not yet been determined. Sooner or later Yushchenko will have to stand in front of his people without his "democratic gown" and demonstrate the authoritarian nature of the East European liberalism. Tymoshenko will have to make the final ideological step and openly talk as one of the left. If she proves unable to do that, she will either be beaten by her "orange revolution" colleagues or will have to yield to someone more radical. Both parties are now hesitating. They were not striving for such a confrontation, they were not planning this course of events. But the logic of history is stronger than personal sympathy and plans. The "orange revolution" becomes the asset of the past, but real Ukrainian revolution may be just around the corner. Boris Kagarlitsky is a Director of The Institute for Globalization Studies.

- Just OkKyleDined on 8/23/2014The sea bass was good. The rest of our meal was just ok. It is not worth the prices you pay. They are known for their steaks but they were average. They have a faint wine list but good luck picking the right one. They do not have half of what they say they offer. Your best bet is to find a different restaurant to spend the money you will at vines.Special Features:
- Romantic DinnerFoodiesDined on 8/22/2014This place was amazing. We had 7:30 reservations and got there a little early so sat at the bar for a couple of cocktails. the bartender was really great at describing her drinks and made 2 of her best recommendations. There was a piano player and a gentleman singing in the bar area that made for a romantic ambiance. We sat in the main dining room next to an elevated fireplace. Next time I would request seating at one of their half circle booths. We had the Grilled Octopus that was Amazing. Wish they made it as a main course. The Pork Occa Buco literally fell of the bone. It was such a large portion we shared it. It was unbelievable. Our wait staff was very attentive but not over the top. Wonderful experienceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary DinnerDoebriggsDined on 8/19/2014Went for anniversary dinner and was blown away by the ambiance, decor and wait staff. Food was excellent. Loved the band!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great meal!mysterychefDined on 8/15/2014Went to Vines for the summer special, the were out of the whole lobster but subbed a lobster tail for the same price ( should have been 2 tails for the size. the waiter seemed a little off at first but then became much more attentive. The food was spectacular! loved he steak, lobster risotto, asparagus cooked just perfectly! Will be returning ! they have live music and it was a great band, nice to hear that while dining. It puts you in mind of an old fashioned supper club, speakeasy type of place.Special Features:
- Amazing!JenGDined on 8/8/2014I am so glad that someone reccommended Vines Grille and Wine Bar to me. The food was absolutely incredible and the service was wonderful. We were in town for the weekend for my boyfriend's birthday and they made it a very special meal. I could not be more pleased. We will definitely return.Special Features:
- Overpricingler7135Dined on 8/8/2014Great experience overall , will repeat.Bar ambiance with oldies jazz excellent.Only concern was the overprize wines,there is ample space to make reasonable adjustments which will make drinking more bottles.Special Features:
- Just Awesome!!!VeryHappyDined on 7/26/2014We enjoy everything about Vines - the food, the service, the ambience, and the music ... Always a special occasion @ Vines :)Special Features:
- Expensive but greatLuckyDined on 7/26/2014The food was fantastic and the live music as well. Yes, this was an expensive meal but there should be no shock when the bill comes if you can do basic math. The baratta was phenomenal-I've never had fresh mozzarella before. The French Onion soup and Ceasar salad were great. The filet was certainly worth the price but I have to say the gnocchi and the beets were the star of the show. The dessert menu was disappointing but the Kiona ice wine from Washington state was a great alternative. The service wasn't uptight or stuck up as you might expect for the prices. Vinny made us feel comfortable and was very knowledgable. If I could afford a $200+ dinner more often I would certainly make Vines a regular treatSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food, great wine, but priceyPatrickDined on 7/20/2014Service was good. The seabass and steak were delicious. However, the restaurant is very expensive. Two entrees, a side, and a relatively cheap bottle of wine cost close to $200.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- greatOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/16/2014Great Music and service and food. We went on a Wednesday and it was not too busy. The price was on the high end but well worth it with a great wine list, fantastic Jazz and very helpful waiters.Special Features:
- Not greatOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/12/2014Billed as one of the best wine lists in Orlando by the Ritz-Carlton concierge...well, maybe, if they had anything on the list. Our server greeted us quickly and we started looking for wines. That was when the problems occurred. It took several attempts and "checking" multiple times to find something they actually had. Nothing that we ordered from the list was actually available. In the end, they did discount the champagne to a lower price of something similar after I finally said, "just take this list away and tell me what you do have". The cab we ordered was not the vintage listed either. We all had steaks and they were fine, nothing to write home about...sides were fine, too. The experience was killed at the outset. Bummer.Special Features:
- Expensive and loud1980DRGDined on 7/12/2014Don't get me wrong, the food was perfect, the service was just as expected, and the ambience was... Almost great. The restaurant is cut in half by an impressive bar. But this means there is NO quiet time or place inside. It was just a little too dark inside. Bad shadowing everywhere behind the bar (where the tables are). Beware though, it is VERY expensive. Just a tad more than it should be. Other than that, not a bad place.Special Features:
- Great food music service ambienceCharlieDined on 7/11/2014Everything was very nice but a little pricey, the music was nice, everything was greatSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A great find!DisneyfoodieDined on 7/9/2014The food was great, service was absolutely outstanding. The servers even commented a few times...please relax and enjoy. We will take care of you! They escorted me to the ladies room..Not just a point around the corner. Food was fabulous and a terrific wine list. Happy hour is great at 50% which was nice for $20 glasses of wine. The space is lovely but it is loud when the band comes on.Special Features:
- Great dinnerstevebertDined on 7/8/2014I love the relaxed feel of this place, and the grilled octopus is really good. I had the filet and my wife the Chilean sea bass. Both meals were really good. We would like to go back again.Special Features:
- Nice placepayupDined on 7/2/2014We went specifically to celebrate our anniversary. They are definitely known for the wine but it was not our forte. The food was good but again, not one for the marinades and spices. The service was great and they made every effort to please. The music was excellent - got a surprise when a customer got up to sing - she was great! Just wanted to go to an upscale restaurant to celebrate 23 years.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My Boyfriend's Birthday DinnerPerfectionDined on 6/29/2014I so enjoy eating out and I always try to match a restaurant with a special occasion. I had visited the Vines bar once with my boyfriend, Robert but had not eaten there. One of my co-workers and his wife visit often and told me how wonderful it was, So for a special dinner I made reservations. I was not disappointed. Everything was perfect...the food, the service, the friendliness and knowledge of the staff. The musical group even sang Happy Birthday to Robert. It was a most excellent evening and we plan on coming often. We even tried the octopus appetizer! Delicious. Thank you again, Jackie Brockington.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- greatGreatrebound123Dined on 6/28/2014it was awesome, I loved how you guys pick up the ball, we had to wait a little while for serve but you guy really stepped it up when you got to us way to rebound!! thank you so much for your great serviceSpecial Features:
- Who do they think they are...pickydinerVIPDined on 6/28/2014We've been to some pretty name places in the last year and so we do know sophisticated service and dining. This was not it. Pricey for no reason. We had very poor service - after a pretentious mention that we had two wait staff. Adam, one of our servers, could have cared less for service. Very inattentive. Long waits and plates left for long periods. This was a birthday celebration (which we mentioned at the beginning of the meal). Did the offer any special attention? Not even a complimentary dessert. The wine was a selection we are very familair with and buy it at Total Wine for under $20. Vines had it at $60. What a rip off. Ok, the food was pretty good. We think this has become a tourist attraction. Locals stay away!Special Features:
- Great food, but . . .310LakesideVIPDined on 6/25/2014they canceled my opentable reservation after I showed. Had to go through OT to get my points. If not for that, the service score would be higher.Special Features:
- A little disappointed...OutstandingVIPDined on 6/25/2014Our service was pretty awful, I had my child with me (like I do at many nice establishments) and had an attitude reflected from that. The burger was great, appetizers were not of good value...especially greek salad...and plain burrata, which I was charged full price of the whole setup for. Funny as well, free champagne coupon from Hilton provided to server, he provided nothing but taking my coupon. Wines by the glass were good, not great, the noise level was appropriate with a singer, but for the price...I'd rather spend my money at Vitos, Moonfish, Christinis, etc. in that area there are many other places to splurge which would leave one with better service and satisfaction from the food. Not impressed with this one unfortunately...Special Features:
- Absolutely the Best!!!FLBunnyDined on 6/23/2014If you are looking for a terrific enviornment, great food and outstanding wine list with stellar customer service, this is the place!Special Features:
- Worth the price?StacyVIPDined on 6/21/2014The ambiance, bar area, music and service was very enjoyable. The food was good as well but at $46 for Sea Bass it's a bit much. There are so many options in the area that to charge the prices they do, something should stand out as extraordinary. The food was good, and maybe even very good but I would not go back to this restaurant at that price range. The bench seat we were in was also broken. Given the dining area is very close to the bar/music area, be prepared to speak up if with a guest.Special Features:
- Great food and service!NewFloridianDined on 6/21/2014We enjoyed the food and entertainment. They made my husband's birthday very special. The only reason why I didn't give all five stars for the service is because the waiter forgot to tell us about the dinner specials. We started with two waiters, so maybe one thought the other had already done it. Overall, it was a great evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OverpricedNashDined on 6/15/2014The service was excellent and the food was good. However, it was not worth the final cost of almost $400 for 4 (2 adults and 2 kids). I have had better for much cheaper.Special Features:
- Vines was great!DooSPXDined on 6/12/2014The service, the atmosphere, the food and of course the wine, it all was out standing!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- orlandolocalVIPDined on 6/7/2014Have dined at Vines many times. This last experience was by far, the most disappointing. Soup came out cold, took until the third bowl for it to be warm, waiter forgot bread (even after it was asked for twice) until after the third soup was delivered. Steaks came out and had clearly been sitting under some type of warmer because of the soup issue. No managers were seen during dinner or came to check on the meal. Called and left a message asking for a call back and no response. Extremely disappointed with this experience.
- Husband's birthdayVinetimesDined on 6/7/2014The service was top knotch. These are professional servers who complimented the excellent food, wine and live music. Not only did the servers present and remove our table effortlessly and unobtrusively but the entire diningroom was a very intimate experience because of the professional servers.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A lovely eveninglive2crzDined on 6/6/2014The restaurant was lovely and the music entertaining. Food is always subjective. My children each enjoyed their meal. Service was decent.Special Features:
- Surprisingly Good FoodDineAroundTheWorldVIPDined on 6/6/2014You might think of Vines as a good lounge and patio bar. However, the food is outstanding. Get a table (I prefer out of direct sight of the band), enjoy their very good service, and outstanding food.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/5/2014Slightly disappointed by the food. Mashed potatoes were salty. Thought the steak and chicken should have been better for the price. Bread, wine and atmosphere were great.Special Features:
- DianneDianneDined on 6/2/2014Lovely for special night out. Not inexpensive but really very nice experience. We come here every time we are in the Orlando area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always great!ConAndDaniVIPDined on 5/30/2014If you need a safe choice, that never disappoints, Vines is the place. Aside of the great food and service, their wine list is current and relevant, and the live jazz is a treat... An Orlando classic!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great but Over - PricedOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/25/2014The ambience when arriving is perfect. I selected the restaurant originally for the live Jazz but I was pleasently surprised with the restaurant and menu. I dine in 5 star restaurants all over the country including NYC and I found the prices to be at least 20 - 30% higher than most others. The restaurant was emty.I would say this would be the reason. Disapointing as it will stop me from returning.Special Features:
- Good JazzOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 5/24/2014Lively, fun a tasty. Our waiter was knowledgeable and guided us well on the wine selection.Special Features:
- VioletDined on 5/20/2014I have been here many times. This restaurant brings high level quality dining to Orlando. The bacon strips, lamb chops and Rioja wines are my favorites. Service is extraordinary!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Multiple times, never disappointedMercurialEruditeDined on 5/20/2014The wine list is very, very good... food prepared with care and menu creative... staff AMAZING!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It was...OKMC143VIPDined on 5/17/2014A bit disappointed after hearing so many good things about the restaurant. The seating was much more packed than we expected, and our "intimate" table was jammed next to 4 very large groups. The steak was COLD, which was unfortunate as it was actually tasty. Disappointed overall.
- Great for dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 5/17/2014Although the restaurant is known for steaks, I had the "chef composed" Chilean sea bass dish, which was terrific. The fish portion was much larger than one usually gets at other nice restaurants. I started with the grilled octopus, which comes not as a chunk or two of tentacle, but rather chopped into small pieces and immersed in a nice dressing with red onions and capers. I thought it slightly on the salty side, but it was still an outstanding preparation that I would gladly have again. My dining companion started with the escargot, for which she gave effusive praise (and she lives in Paris!!!) and as her main dish had the wild salmon, a large portion of fish that she said was delicious.Special Features:
- Poor serviceBPFoodieDined on 5/14/2014went on a weeknight for a special occasion -- table of 6 - 20 minutes to get drinks -- waiter was working another room that had been bought out for the evening so did not have the cycles to support my group -- food was good but will not go back because of poor serviceSpecial Features:

CHAMPLAIN — Charles G. Miller, 34, of Champlain, was injured in a one-car rollover accident near Paquette Boulevard in Champlain at about 6 p.m. Sunday.

Two children in the vehicle did not require medical treatment, but Miller was transported to CVPH Medical Center complaining of shoulder pain. He was ticketed for unsafe speed for conditions and will appear in Champlain Town Court on Jan. 10.

City of Kansas City, Mo.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Nov. 23, 2011
KCIR property to be transformed into a City park
Residents invited to planning meeting Dec. 15
The City of Kansas City, Mo., has completed the purchase of the Kansas City International Raceway (KCIR) for $1.55 million. The 93-acre property, located at 82nd Street and Noland Road, will be transformed into a City park. The former owner of the property, NP3 Racing LLC, initially approached the City in January 2011 with an offer to sell. The two sides negotiated for about nine months until an agreement was reached and the deal was closed on Nov. 21, 2011. NP3 Racing LLC has until Jan. 31, 2011 to vacate the property.
The process of planning for the new park has already started. The City's Park and Recreation Department staff has been meeting with other City departments to ensure coordination of efforts and resources in the area. Residents and stakeholders are invited to participate in a series of community engagement planning meetings, the first of which is scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 15, 2011 from 6-8 p.m. at Oakwood Baptist Church, Room B109, located at 7600 Lee's Summit Road, Kansas City, MO 64139.
"Not only will the residents of Little Blue Valley be impacted by the benefits of living near a City park," said Parks and Recreation Director Mark L. McHenry. "They will also play a major role in the planning of the park. They have an opportunity to provide input on the development of the parkland and the amenities to be included in it."
It is anticipated that the park will include both active and passive uses and standard park amenities such as shelters, playgrounds and ball fields. The parkland sits adjacent to a county park and will eventually serve as a trailhead with the extension of the Little Blue Trace trail, a partnership between the City's Parks and Recreation Department and Jackson County Parks and Recreation.
Any person with a disability who desires reasonable accommodation to attend the Dec. 15 meeting may contact the City's 311 Action Center at 311 or 816-513-1313, or for TTY, 816-513-1889, or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
For media inquiries or more information please contact Travis Kiefer, Parks and Recreation Department, at 816-513-7562.

One of the best food prep albums of all time, next to AC/DC's High Voltage and Powerage Albums. Highly recommended for onion chopping or otherwise!
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
It is impossible for me to wrap what is left of my mind around the fact that this just one man making all of this fantastic Thrash. I love to walk to this one it burns off extras calories. If you love Thrash Metal download this one and it will seldom leave your MP3 player.
I dont even know where to start. This band or should I say, Joel Grind just keeps getting better by the album. Their older stuff was amazing to say the least and this album is just a scorcher from start to finish. Its got your catchy chorus's that make you wanna listen to it again, its got those riffs that make you just want the next album and its got vocals that make you wanna mosh all over the place. This is a great modern death/thrash album, but fits in with something that was released in the 90s. You love old school? You'll love An Overdose of Death!
Favorite Tracks are "Wild Dogs" and "Nuke The Cross".
Do yourself a favor and pick this metallic thrash masterpiece up!!!!! F%%K this album RULES!!!! Joel Grind has it down. If you like Bathory, Sarcofago, Broken Bones, Hellhammer etc., you'll eat this up!!!!! I love the new version of "War is Hell"!!! FEEDBACK, BLOOD AND DISTORTION!!!
I checked this album out when I saw they were on the GWAR bill (who doesn't love a Gwar a show.) Wasn't sure what I was in for until I saw the cover art, with the 80's style radioactive wasteland beast-demons. More retro thrash I thought, and yep that's exactly what it is. But who cares, this stuff is honest and not derivative enough to be simple rehashing. This is really a fun, drink-informed, aggressive thrash moshing built to rouse crowds and ignite house parties.
All tracks are raging, headbanging tunes of not-so-buzzsaw but grimy, thrashy punk. No gang vocals, just snarling, beer-spewing aggression. The riffs are all great enough to keep you coming for more, and truly catchy in the best thrash sense (melody doesn't have to be flexing your inner Hetfield/CoC whine.)
Not essential by any means, but one of the better modern thrash albums I've listened to. Drink up, loosen your necktie, and give your neck a workout. Feedback, Blood, and Distortion!

"It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important." ~Sherlock Holmes
I like to study the little things about rocks, which is why I like microstructures. What makes little microstructures important? Well, every grain got its composition, shape, orientation, etc. by some process, so microstructures give us clues to the kinds of processes that rocks have undergone. For example, if a grain is elongate, perhaps it got that way because it was squished.
Now the squishing of one little grain isn't earth shattering, but the squishing of millions of grains can move rocks several kilometers! This is how we build mountains. Where the rocks are too hard to squish, they shatter, and if enough of them shatter all at once, they make an earthquake. So in a sense, microstructures really are earth-shatteringly important.
The rocks that I study come from Ontario's shores of the Georgian Bay, not too far from the land of my heritage, Michigan. These rocks are important because they come from what was deep below mountains that were once much like the Himalaya are today. While we can't directly measure what is happening beneath the Himalaya, we can study these rocks that are preserved from a similar environment so that we can understand the processes that are building mountains today.
The microstructures that I study are in quartz and I look at them using the cathodoluminescence (CL) detector on a scanning electron microscope (SEM). I have identified several different kinds of microstructures; my goal is to determine what processes formed these microstructures and determine what role those processes may have played in the building of mountains.
(And if you really want to know why I'm studying rock microstructures, it's because they're pretty!)

To the editor:
For anyone who has lived in Essex for less than, say, 20 or 25 years, Mary Ahern Mears' obituary (the Times, Monday, April 22) this past week is required reading.
She was a woman who gave so much of herself to her community, asking nothing in return other than the best for all concerned. She touched your life in some way, whether you know it or not. Her accomplishments are overwhelming when you see them all written down.
When I was young, I proudly nominated her for the Essex Pride award. I still have the letter, and I am sure she did, too. If you knew her, you knew she was notorious for saving things. She had a list of people's birthdays on her kitchen wall that included about everyone in Essex in those days, and she remembered them all.
Her door was always open. She sat in her tiny house on Conomo Point with the love of her life until she was almost 92 years old and looked out every day and saw the sunrise and wished for the best. If she was part of your life, you were blessed.
She was the Essex eagle. She was a woman ahead of her time. She had passion and grace, kindness and fortitude, strength and commitment.
Mary had the strong will of a bull and the dignity of an eagle. And so shall we, because that sounds like a wonderful way to live.

Tutka is a free (as in freedom) tracker style MIDI sequencer for GNU/Linux and Mac OS X. It is similar to programs like SoundTracker, ProTracker and FastTracker except that it does not support samples and is meant for MIDI use only. Tutka uses a custom XML based file format for storing songs. Songs in OctaMED SoundStudio's MMD2 file format can also be loaded and saved. Tutka is licensed under the GNU GPL.
Even though Tutka 0.12.x has been very stable for quite some time now it is still not finished. It may not work, it may lose your work or do other unintended things. The author takes no responsibility for any loss of data caused by Tutka. See the Savannah bugs page for Tutka for a list of bugs and missing features. Please report any bugs you find. Tutka 0.99.x should be considered to be a work in progress at this point.
An example song written using Tutka is available for download in Ogg Vorbis format.
2012-07-07: Tutka being rewritten using Qt and Mac OS X.
In preparation for version 1.0 Tutka is being rewritten using Qt. There are no new features except support for Mac OS X. The rewrite may have caused some regressions but the intention is to iron these out as soon as they are found. The source code for the Qt version (0.99.x) is available from the Tutka Git repository.
2011-01-30: Tutka 0.12.5 released.
- Insert/delete track functionality was implemented
2006-09-15: Tutka 0.12.4 released.
- Tracker widget refreshing was improved
- A bug in copy/paste functionality was fixed
- A bug that caused a crash on startup in some environments was fixed
2005-04-17: Tutka 0.12.3 autopackage available.
There is now an autopackage of Tutka 0.12.3 available for download. It can be considered a little bit experimental since it has not been tested much. As usual, please report any bugs you find.
2005-04-14: Tutka 0.12.3 released.
- The tracker widget now uses Pango for better font rendering
- Tracker scrollbars were fixed
- Mouse wheel scrolling was implemented
- Other small improvements to the tracker widget were made
- External MIDI sync support was added
- Relocation and Autopackage support were implemented
- Preliminary Jack transport support was added
Tutka 0.12.x has new requirements. It requires ALSA 0.9 or later, GTK+ 2.4 or later and libglade 2.4.2 or later. The ALSA requirement enables multiple MIDI interface support and makes it possible to use Tutka with software synthesizers.
The multiple MIDI interface support is the most untested part of Tutka so you may encounter problems when using multiple MIDI interfaces. Please report any problems you find using the Savannah bugs page for Tutka.
Songs saved using Tutka 0.11.x should work in Tutka 0.12.x.
Songs saved with Tutka 0.12.x won't work with earlier versions of Tutka though.
Tutka 0.10.x songs need to be converted to a new file format
using the supplied
tutka-pre-0.11-convert.awk script. If the
song is from a Tutka version earlier than 0.10.0 it first needs to be converted
tutka-pre-0.10-convert.awk and then again using
Please see the Savannah news page for Tutka for older news.
Tutka 0.99.x requires Qt >= 4.8.0 and alsa >= 0.9 (on GNU/Linux).
Tutka 0.12.x requires alsa >= 0.9, gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4, libgnomeui-2.6, libxml-2.0 >= 2.4.16, libglade-2.0 >= 2.4.2 and their dependencies.
You can download Tutka from http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/tutka/. The latest released version is 0.12.5.
Please report bugs and send suggestions using the Savannah bugs page for Tutka.
Tutka is programmed by Vesa Halttunen <email@example.com>.

Sonic macro and micro news in 2012
In addition to being a vital aspect of entertainment, music and the news surrounding it often serve as a lens for considering important cultural phenomena. Rather than providing the overdone top ten album list, like I did last year, I focused on overarching themes in national, international and hyper-local music news in Macro and Micro Music Review. Since I neglected to mention Of God and Science in my local band R.I.P. list, check out their music video for "Turbulence" below.

Jones made an improper right turn from Durkee Street onto Broad Street, according to State Police. He was found to be driving with a suspended license, due to a previous DWAI charge.
An onsite breathahlyzer test registered his blood alcohol at 0.23 percent, which is above the legal limit. Jones was charged with first-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, a felony; third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, a misdemeanor; improper right turn; DWI, first offense; and aggravated DWI, because his BAC registered above 0.18.
He was arraigned in City Court on Sunday morning and is being held without bail at the Clinton County Jail. Jones is scheduled appear in court on Tuesday.

Easily found this Ct. style wine-booze-beer joint on a recent rainy night. Beer is located in the rear wall coolers and on a couple of large metel storage units yoiu reach shortly after entering. Beer highlights were some growlers of Ole Burnside brews,(some were not refrigerated..), a nice selection of Belgians, Germans and da Brits and a fair-decent crew of domestic good stuff, No Stone. Didnt see any dust, they have a small selection of glassware, a salesguy asked me if I needed any help, so thats gotta be worth something. All in all, this place clearly sells alot of wine, booze and macro beer, but they are making a better then average attempt to serve the BA worthy beer drinkers in the area. Just a few minutes off of I95 in Farifield,only a few blocks from Fairfield University and it beter then average and well maintained Disc Gof course

I've been a weekly/bi-weekly Mo's beer customer for about 4 years and would put it in the top three as far as craft beer selection in fairfield. (other two being Whole Foods and Harry's)
-Prices reasonable and at the lower end of most craft beer stores
-Staff is incredibly friendly and always around to answer questions
-They have samplings which seem to be on Friday's
-They take back bottles that they sell for redmeption 0.05c which is nice because most machines don't accept craft beers or 22oz bottles
-Selection is okay, they have quite a bit of northeast brews with a decent selection of 22oz bottles but not usually a place to find 'hard to find beers' or limited production runs.... and if they do get those they usually limit them (understandable)
-parking lot a bit small and crowded

New to the area, and very happy I found Mo's. I really enjoyed this spot. Large selection of craft beers at very reasonable prices. Staff is very knowledgeable and they have great tastings on Fridays.
The only thing that drives me a bit crazy is the parking. If it is a peak alcohol purchase time, the parking lot is small and can get a bit crazy. Wish CT would allow brew thrus!

Solid selection of craft but make sure to get to the store quickly when your limited releases are available as they do sell out quickly. Lot's of craft beer available in the cold set so if you're thirsty and you like variety this is the place to go. Prices are competitive and they are friendly so if you don't see what you really like let them know and most likely they can get it for you.

This BeerMomma is one happy gal when I have a few moments to spare to go to Mo's. Most Fridays they have a beer tasting in the late afternoon/early evening. The staff is really knowledgeable about craft beers. Largest selection of micro/craft/seasonal brews in Fairfield, CT. I can always get my paws on some difficult to find brews. Their prices are reasonable too.
I don't buy my beer anywhere else. Why would I?

Mo's has been around ever since I was a few years short of the drinking age. When I finally was "enlightened" to craft beer, I realized that Mo's was the best spot in Fairfield to pick up craft beer.
The selection is solid, nothing extraordinary but very good. A good-sized beer section, especially since the store is a "wine-first". Prices are the best in the southern Fairfield-county, that I have seen
Nice selection, make-a-six pack, domestics and foreigns at a reasonable price. You can't ask for much more!

Stopped by here on the way back from visiting a friend in Connecticut and I'm damn sure glad I did. This is an excellent brewshop.
Got to this place quite easily, as it's a few turns off of exit 22 on I-95. Parking lot is a bit small, but there's always a space for your car. Once you get inside, it's obvious that wines make up a majority of this store, as about 90% of the floorspace is dedicated to it. Fortunately for the beer enthusiast, Mo's holds a very good selection of craft. Some are in the coolers just as you walk through the entrance and the rest of them are tucked away in a secluded corner in the back.
The craft beer section comprises of about four rows of shelves separated by country. There's a good selection of European brews to start, with the American offerings being right around the corner. The back wall holds the 12 oz bottle packs. There's also a mix-a-sixer display with a nice variety of single bottle offerings. Definitely a plus. Bottle age is good, with no expired labels to be found. Selection is great, with many different foreign (Corsendonk, Rochefort, Fantome, etc) and domestic (Rogue, Stone, Kona, New England Brewing) breweries represented, There were definitely a few beers here that I hadn't seen across the border in New York, so I was glad to have the opportunity to buy them.
Pricing is fair. Everything is priced reasonably and the single 12 oz bottles are only $1.89 each, so a careful eye can mean you come away with a great deal. The tax is also quite low, so you'll get more bang for your buck!
Service is top notch. The moment I stepped into the beer section, I was asked if I needed help finding anything. When I requested a specific beer, one of the guys went and got it for me. Everyone was pleasant and amicable, making my shopping experience very enjoyable.
This is a great place to shop for craft beer. Friendly staff, great selection, good pricing. Man, I just wish I lived closer, because I would definitely be a repeat customer.

Easy to get to from I-95, about 2 minutes off the highway. The good news about this store is that the prices are cheap, much much cheaper than Harry's Wine & Liquor, on the same street, which gouges beer lovers with a hateful spite. The bad news is that the service kinda sucks. I called 2 days before I was gonna be in the area, asking if they had Imperial Stout Trooper. I was told "yes, but we don't hold bottles for people. It's first come first serve". That sounded fair, but when I showed up 2 days later I was told that they were holding them for customers who called the day before (1 day after I called!). BS!
The selection is pretty good, many of the New England selections are in coolers, the Belgian beers and majority of USA craft beers are in the rear right corner on shelves.

Who should purchase an individual North Carolina health insurance policy?
How do I figure out who has the Best Individual Health Insurance in North Carolina?
This is going to be dependent largely on your own personal situation.
Are you healthy and don't take many medications?
Then you might want to look at a higher deductible option like an HSA qualified health plan since you don't use many services. This will give you the peace of mind and protection of having a major medical health plan without the high costs.
Do you take any medications on an ongoing basis?
If so you will want to contact a local independent North Carolina health agent who can tell you what each carrier will do based on your health history.
Are there any doctors or medical providers that are deal breakers for you?
If you have a favorite doctor that must accept your new NC health plan, then you want to make sure the provider is in the network before you even start comparing plans.
The most popular provider of individual and family health insurance benefits in North Carolina without a doubt is Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina.
BCBSNC offers 3 different types of health programs:
This is benefit rich Cadillac plan. Low copayments for office visits and prescription drugs.
Blue Cross really puts you in the driver seat with this plan. You have many different options for medical and RX deductibles.
If you want to know exactly which out-of-pocket costs will be, then this is the plan for you.
BlueAdvantage Saver
The BlueAdvantage Saver plan is for those consumers who would like the BlueAdvantage series but can't justify the higher premium.
So with this version of the BlueAdvantage series consumbers have a plan with limited office visits covered at a co-pay.
If you need more office visits it still covered at the negotiated rate.
For the benefits this plan offers extremely affordable monthly premium, also you still get access to Blue Cross' enormous provider network in North Carolina
BlueOptions HSA
If you want catastrophic or major medical health insurance, just pure insurance for the big stuff then this is the plan you want.
Preventative care is still covered, just like with any other health plan.
Cigna Individual Health Insurance in North Carolina
Cigna is an up-and-coming provider of affordable health insurance in NC.
They offer two types of health plans, a co-pay plan that offers office visits and medications covered at a co-pay which is called the open access.
They also offer a high deductible health plan called the health savings plan. Dental benefits are also available as an add-on for an additional premium.
You will find that Aetna is extremely similar to CIGNA in their plan design and underwriting guidelines. In fact the same people who used to run Aetna's individual health insurance division, are the same folks who started Cigna's individual health insurance departments in North Carolina.
Aetna called their health plans "Managed Care Open Access" followed by a number such as 3000, 2500, 5000..etc etc. The the number is the deductible on the medical plan.

text: Assertiveness To be assertive is to assert or express your rights, to stand up for yourself and your values and beliefs, and to be able to express your true feelings openly. It is to be able to declare yourself, who you are, what you think and feel. It is an active rather than a passive approach to others, and to life. Assertiveness in communication and social relationships involves openness, honesty, and firmness, all with appropriateness and flexibility. The assertive person is confident in a relaxed way, as well as free and spontaneous in social situations. On the other hand, when assertiveness goes too far and takes advantage of others, it is aggression. Aggressive behavior cuts across the rights of others, attacks them and puts them down; it is destructive, hurts people and makes them feel badly. Aggressive individuals may feel on top of things, but they will be watching in case someone tries to better them. They are often defensive, and seldom have many friends. The following chart illustrates the consequences and feelings, for the actor and for the receiver, of non-assertive, assertive, and aggressive behavior. The Assertiveness Continuum of Behavior* Non-assertive Behavior Assertive Behavior Aggressive Behavior As Actor As Actor As Actor Self-denying Self-enhancing Self-enhancing at expense of others Inhibited Expressive Over-expressive Does not achieve desired goal(s) May achieve desired goal(s) Achieves desired goal(s) at expense of others Others choose Chooses for self Chooses for other Uncertain, anxious, depreciates self Confident, feels good about self Depreciates other As Receiver As Receiver As Receiver Impatient, guilty, or angry Knows where one stands Feels put down, depreciated No respect for actor Respects actor Hurt, defensive, humiliated Achieves desired goal(s) at actor's expense May achieve desired goal(s) Does not achieve desired goal(s) * Adapted from R.E. Alberti and M.L. Emmons, Your Perfect Right: A Guide to Assertive Behavior, Second Edition. Copyright 1974, Impact Publishers, Inc., San Luis Obispo, CA. One of the important rewards of developing assertiveness is that it tends to neutralize the anxieties that many people experience in various social situations. There will be some anxiety before individuals assert themselves, as they contemplate what they will say or do, but this is largely the same anxiety that is experienced when they try any new behavior that they have avoided previously. However, once they try an assertive response, and practice it, there is usually a marked reduction in social anxieties. In fact, learning appropriate assertive behavior is one of the main ways by which social anxiety is now being treated. Being assertive can also lead to greater emotional freedom, as a person learns to safely express emotions. People who are non-assertive often cannot freely express positive emotions such as joy or affection because they have learned that they cannot express anger or frustration when justified. Having the freedom to express oneself can reduce anxiety and uncertainty in interpersonal situations, which in turn can help a person feel less defensive and more willing to risk greater openness and honesty in emotional expression. Irrational Beliefs about Assertive Behavior Listed below are several common irrational beliefs about being assertive and disputing statements for each: If I am assertive myself, others will become angry at me. Effects may be positive, neutral, or negative. I have a legitimate right to be assertive. You have a right to ask for what you want and need, just as the other person has a right to refuse. The best way to get your needs met is to be direct about what they are. Don't expect people to read your mind. If I assert myself and people do become angry with me, I will be devastated. It will be awful. Even if others do become angry and unpleasant, I can handle it without falling apart. I don't have to feel responsible for the person's anger. It may be he/she who has a problem. I don't have to be vulnerable to other people's moods. Although I prefer others to be straightforward with me, I'm afraid that if I am open with others and say "no" I will hurt them. Other people may or may not feel hurt. If I prefer to be dealt with directly, it is quite likely others will too. If my assertion hurts others, I am responsible for their feelings. Even if others are hurt by my assertive behavior, I can let them know I care for them while also being direct about what I need or want. I am not responsible for anyone's' feelings but my own. It is wrong and selfish to turn down legitimate requests. Others will think I'm terrible and won't like me. Even legitimate requests can be refused assertively. It is OK to consider my own needs, sometimes before those of others. I can't please all of the people all of the time. At all costs, I must avoid making statements and asking questions that might make me look ignorant or stupid. It's okay to lack information or make a mistake, I'm human. Assertive women are cold, and people don't like them. Assertive women are not aggressive women – they are simply honest, direct, and open, not passive. Be modest and humble. Do not act superior to other people. You have as much right as other people to show your abilities and to take pride in yourself. It is healthy to own both your strengths and limitations in life. Everyone's opinion is just that - an opinion. A Final Note It is your right to stand up for yourself and to assert your individuality. On the other hand, you don't have to be assertive all the time, in all circumstances. The goal is to be able to assert yourself, and to be free to choose.

Allen Products Company has acquired ATM Fly-Ware, a widely recognized brand of both standard and custom rigging and suspension systems for loudspeakers. Allen Products Company serves the installed sound market with standard off-the-shelf loudspeaker mounting and suspension solutions.
This acquisition brings Allen Products much closer to its mission of being able to provide, under one roof, any pre-engineered, load rated mounting and suspension solution, whether for permanently installed or live sound applications. Solutions will range from the smallest of satellite speakers to the largest of loudspeaker clusters and line arrays.
"Combining ATM's engineering resources with Allen Products' customer service and off-the-shelf capabilities will bring the art and science of A/V mounting and suspension solutions to the next level," says Paul Allen, president, Allen Products Company. "The potential of having everything a customer needs to install sound at a job site is huge! Plus, we will be creating a wider variety of new products and services that promise to save even more time and money."
"I knew that the ATM Fly-Ware brand would blend perfectly with the Allen brand," says Andrew Martin, president, ATM. "Combining these two brands will positively affect the industry and achieve new levels of service our industry has never before seen. I believe that this is timely and crucial as audio and video systems get more complex."
ATM Fly-Ware has extensive expertise in live sound and offers both custom and standard suspension solutions Their extensive industry experience includes both permanently installed and portable suspension systems for medium to large applications.
"I am very pleased at how well these two companies blend together," says Allen. "We believe that by combining the resources of Allen Products and ATM Fly-Ware, we will have created the single largest resource for quality mounting and suspension designs in the world. In addition, now we will have the combined resources to design and fabricate any custom designed mounting or suspension system, regardless of its complexity."
"Basically, if you want to fly or install anything off the ground, we have the team to handle it safely – with the best people, products, and resources, all from the same source," adds Allen. "More often in today's complex contracting environment, OEMs, contractors and touring companies need a complete resource for pre-engineered solutions. I am proud to say that we will now be able to provide almost anything that a customer may need, and all from one location."
Another exciting aspect of this acquisition is in the expansion of the design and engineering center. This center will be the key to providing customers with complete engineering services for their installations, all while innovating new time saving products.
The Allen Products and ATM Fly-Ware brands will continue to expand their respective services for contractors, OEM accounts, touring companies and live sound clientele separately, as they do today.
Both companies will be headquartered in Signal Hill, CA, serving customers worldwide. For more information, go to www.allenproducts.com or www.atmflyware.com.
