Out Board has appointed Jolly Pro Audio as exclusive Hong Kong and China distributor for its TiMax Audio Imaging delay matrix and showcontrol processor.
CEO Andy Leung immediately organized a seminar in Hong Kong where Out Board director Robin Whittaker presented the psychoacoustic principles and advanced delay management techniques of TiMax to an audience of sound designers, contractors and engineers.
The PC-based TiMax showcontrol system allows multiple cues to be programmed in rehearsal with multiple precedence delay presets for each performer's stage position or sound effect localization for a given scene. Playlist sound cues are then triggered manually or via MIDI, SMPTE, and RS232 commands.
Jolly Pro Audio's new demo stock TiMax ImageMaker was also used for extensive staff training by Whittaker in TiMax sound design and programming, and already sales of TiMax ImageMaker16 systems have been confirmed for two prestigious venues in mainland China.

#Tip: Guidelines for interviewing victims of sexual and gender-based violence
Sexual and gender-based violence has been getting a lot of press recently, for good reason.
The abhorrent crimes against women and girls committed by men in southern California and northern India have brought the topic to the fore but, according to a 2013 study from the World Health Organisation, one in three women worldwide will experience sexual or gender-based violence at some point in their lives. These are extreme cases of a widespread problem.
While reporting these crimes and addressing the socio-cultural background that can motivate the perpetrators is a vital role of the media, telling the story of the victims, both male and female, is just as important.
The recent #YesAllWomen hashtag has let many women tell their own stories. But when a victim of sexual or gender-based violence agrees to an interview, there are additional considerations a journalist must take into account – to respect the victim's rights and aid their recovery.
Last year, the human rights non-profit Witness published guidelines for interviewing survivors of such crimes, including tips on approaching the interview, conducting the interview, and professional behaviour after the interview. They are well worth remembering.Tags: advice, Gender, journalism tips, sexual, violence

Cape May County study backs consolidated dispatch
Written by Alex Davis Friday, January 31, 2014 03:31 pm
|< Prev
|Next >
MIDDLE TOWNSHIP ŌĆō Consolidation of the countyŌĆÖs emergency dispatch has languished for 25 years.
The idea came up again and again, but municipal governments didnŌĆÖt seem interested.
This year, things seem to be taking shape.
Stone Harbor and Avalon have already consolidated their telecommunications with the countyŌĆÖs emergency management dispatch. The county began taking care of fire and emergency medical services calls for the two barrier islands on Jan. 6.
That may be just the beginning. This week, the Cape May County government released a study conducted by Intertech Associates Inc. of Monmouth County that recommends a partial consolidation, meaning a center located in the middle of Cape May County that would serve some of the mainland and barrier islands for emergency dispatch. For a copy of the study, click here.
Centralized dispatch would enhance public safety and bring a cost savings, according to Cape May County Emergency Management Director Martin Pagliughi.
Pagliughi is also AvalonŌĆÖs mayor.
A committee will be formed to see what municipalities are interested in participating in a centralized dispatching service, Pagliughi said.
ŌĆ£I think itŌĆÖs the future, to be very honest about it,ŌĆØ Cape May County Freeholder director Gerald Thornton said in an interview Thursday.
He says the concept makes financial sense and is efficient. Pagliughi said a consolidated dispatch would reduce taxes.
Under the plan, calls for fire, rescue and police would be channeled through a consolidated dispatch center. The municipalities spend more than $6.5 million on the 12 dispatching centers, with 59 full-time employees and 40 part-timers.
Instead, seven municipalities that join the effort initially could see a total savings of $7 million within five years. That type of center would include 13 full-time employees and eight part-timers, and the facility would include Cape May, Wildwood, Stone Harbor, Avalon, Middle Township, Lower Township and the countyŌĆÖs Cape May County Emergency Management Communications Center.
The number of current dispatch employees could be reduced through attrition, Thornton said. Some current employees would be brought on to work at the consolidated center, Pagliughi said in an interview Friday. ThereŌĆÖs no location for a center yet.
The study also includes a single-site countywide consolidation center, which would bring a savings of $16 million within five years. ThatŌĆÖs if all 16 municipalities in the county sign onto the concept. ThatŌĆÖs not likely, however, according to the study.
A consolidated dispatch could be phased in over three, four or five years. That would make the municipalities more comfortable about the transition and would be efficient for Cape May County, according to Thornton.
ŌĆ£There are a lot of questions that have to be answered,ŌĆØ Middle Township Police Chief Christopher Leusner said in an interview Friday.
He said the idea for a centralized dispatch is a good one.
A committee is also expected to be formed. The preliminary advisory would begin looking into start-up costs, location, services, inter-local agreements and other issues.
Thornton said that the county would cover some of the costs for centralized dispatch system, which could include a new building. Local governments would need to upgrade equipment as well.
ŌĆ£I think it deserves further consideration, further study,ŌĆØ Leusner said.
If thereŌĆÖs a centralized dispatch system, he is hoping for an improved communications in Middle Township. He said the current system, while operating better than in past years, has dead spots. Police officers have a difficult time communicating from some buildings in the southern end of the municipality, he said.
Emergency communications need to be improved countywide, Pagliughi indicated. For example, he said, in some cases, police in one municipality cannot hear the radio messages from another.
The idea to consolidate services dates back 25 years or more, when he lobbied the concept as a county freeholder to municipalities. The county had an approximately $500,000 federal grant that would fund such an effort, but officials ended up losing the money.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve always felt it was a good idea,ŌĆØ Thornton said.
A study got underway in 2008, but garnered little interest from municipalities, partly because of having a mandatory sign up to the countywide dispatch center.
The more comprehensive, eight-month study cost about $104,000 and partly was paid through a state grant, according to Pagliughi.
Avalon and Stone HarborŌĆÖs foray into consolidating their dispatching kicked off in January. A three-year contract transfers Stone HarborŌĆÖs dispatch services to Avalon.
Under the agreement, Stone Harbor will pay Avalon $275,000 beginning this year, with a 2-percent annual increase in payments in 2015 and 2016. Stone Harbor is expected to save $187,000 in dispatching expenses, while Avalon is expected to save $184,000, according to Pagliughi.

Publication: theday.com
Mashantucket — William Dittman, the former New London police captain whose January retirement occasioned controversy, has been named interim chief of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Police Department.
The tribe announced Dittman's appointment in a statement Thursday afternoon.
"We feel the combination of his education and over 30 years of experience in law enforcement will prove to be most beneficial to the tribal nation," Roy Colebut-Ingram, who chairs the Tribal Council's Public Safety Committee, said in a statement.
Dittman, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment, was quoted in the tribe's statement.
"I am honored to be appointed interim chief of police of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Police Department, and look forward to the opportunity to blend my law enforcement experience, knowledge and expertise with the unique sovereign components inherent within tribal police departments," he said. "I thank the tribal council for their support."
Dittman most recently worked for the Chief State's Attorney's Office.
"I feel Mr. Dittman is an excellent choice; he is a fine police officer with good sense and good judgment," Chief State's Attorney Kevin Kane said in the tribe's statement.
Dittman sued the City of New London after the City Council refused to fund enhanced retirement benefits that Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio had approved for Dittman and two other officers. Dittman's suit, filed in New London Superior Court, also named Finizio, city Police Chief Margaret Ackley and Bernadette Welch, the city's personnel director.
Dittman's dispute with the city was resolved last week when the council accepted settlement agreements addressing the retirement packages of Dittman and another former captain, Michael Lacey.
The Mashantuckets launched a search for a police chief soon after the tribal police department's former chief, Dan Collins, resigned at the end of May.
Collins' resignation was believed to be related to an Associated Press report that raised questions about the tribal police force's ability to assume a greater role inside the tribe's Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods. The state's tribal casinos, including Mohegan Sun, share law-enforcement duties inside the gaming facilities with state police.

SwiftStack is an SDS solution that makes that possible by building on top of open source software that also happens to run on commodity hardware. It provides flexibility, control, and cost savings to services providers and enterprises that would like to use their own data centers for storage.
Arnold told InfoWorld that when building SwiftStack, the company's design goal was to make it easy to deploy, operate, and scale, as well as to provide the fastest experience when deploying and managing a private cloud storage system. Another key design element was to enable large-scale growth without any disruption to performance.
The system is completely automated, even when it comes to maintenance and upgrades, which can be done on the fly. Storage clusters can also be deployed across data centers or regions, creating a highly available design.
"What we are doing here is harnessing the storage power of a public cloud on commodity hardware, within a company's data center," explained Arnold.
SwiftStack's storage system is rich with enterprise features. The system consists of two main components -- SwiftStack Nodes and the SwiftStack Controller -- that together form a software-defined architecture. Storage intelligence is decoupled from the hardware and this modular SDS approach is what makes the system so flexible.
The first part of the system is the integrated stack that is packaged for turnkey deployment: the SwiftStack Nodes. These nodes include managing and monitoring agents, load balancing, authentication/authorization, as well as support for global clusters to enhance data availability. The second part is the SwiftStack Controller, which decouples storage management from the hardware and provides automated configuration, expansion, and handling of failures. With this latest release, SwiftStack is also providing customers with a choice between a cloud-hosted Controller and an on-premise Controller solution that can be deployed on-site in the customer's private data center.
This solution announcement follows on the heels of other news that came out earlier this month around another effort being led by SwiftStack with the help of Intel and other channel partners -- that is, to make OpenStack storage more efficient by implementing erasure coding. These improvements, according to SwiftStack, have the potential to cut OpenStack cloud storage costs by nearly 50 percent.
SwiftStack is currently available with software and support on a subscription basis starting at $249 per month per 25TB in use.

WASHINGTON — Through a wall at his Rhode Island hotel, Aaron Alexis could hear them — voices harassing him, wanting to harm him. He couldn't sleep. He believed people were following him, using a microwave machine to send vibrations to his body. He changed hotels once, then again. But he called police and told them he couldn't get away from the voices.
On Aug. 7, police alerted officials at the Newport Naval Station about the naval defense contractor's call. But officers didn't hear from him again.
By Aug. 25, Alexis had left the state. The 34-year-old arrived in the Washington area, continuing his work as an information technology employee for a defense-related computer company. Again, he spent nights in different hotels. He suffered from serious mental problems, including paranoia and a sleep disorder, and was undergoing treatment from the Department of Veterans Affairs, according to the law enforcement officials.
But Alexis wasn't stripped of his security clearance, and he kept working.
On Saturday, he visited Sharpshooters Small Arms Range in Lorton, Va., about 18 miles southwest of the nation's capital. He rented a rifle, bought bullets and took target practice at the 16-lane indoor range, then bought a shotgun and 24 shells, according to the store's attorney.
Two days later, as the workweek dawned, Alexis entered the sprawling Washington Navy Yard, a 41-acre labyrinth of buildings protected by armed guards and metal detectors where employees must show IDs to get past doors and gates. Authorities believe he drove a rental car there.
He was equipped with his pass for base access — and the shotgun. Within minutes, it would create mayhem.
He stepped inside the massive Building 197, home to some 3,000 employees. He opened fire around 8:15 a.m., raining shotgun blasts down from a fourth-floor overlook and third-floor hallway into a glass-walled cafeteria where employees were eating breakfast. Trained tactical officers arrived, bursting through the building within seven minutes of the first 911 call, and Alexis shot at them, too.

By ROBIN CAUDELL
---- — SYRACUSE — Issues confronting mainline churches — caring for graying congregations while reaching out to the unchurched — await Bishop Mark J. Webb, the newly elected Methodist leader of the Upper New York Annual Conference.
In high school, his goal was to become the governor of Pennsylvania.
"God changed my mind," Webb said.
The Williamsport, Pa., native holds a Master of Divinity from Asbury Theological Seminary and a bachelor's degree from Shippensburg University. He was elected bishop on July 19, 2012, at the Northeastern Jurisdictional Conference held in Charleston, W.Va.
"The mission statement of the United Methodist Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world," Webb said. "To me, making disciples is two-fold. It's helping those who are already in the church go deeper into that relationship, and it also is doing whatever it takes to invite folks who are not yet part of the church or in relationship to God to experience that.
"We care for those who are already a part of the church and help them to continue to grow and develop. We also reach out beyond the walls of the church. We have folks in our congregation who are willing and are reaching new people. Our challenge is to continue to find the ways so we can be more relevant to the community around us and be places of hospitality for folks who might come."
Helping churches retool and relearn how to do church in the 21st century is part of his role as bishop and formerly as district superintendent of the York District of the Susquehanna Conference.
"One of the great pieces of the United Methodist Church, we are in a unique position to offer the good news of Jesus Christ because of our deep history and balance between personal holiness and social holiness. And our willingness to recognize it's about individual and corporal relationships with God, but it is also about meeting the world where the world is and meeting needs and walking alongside people in communities."
The Upper New York Annual Conference encompasses 48,000 square miles. It's approximately everything but New York City. Webb owns a Honda. It's pretty good on gas, he said, but he's pondering four-wheel drive.
"We have 49 of the 62 counties in New York state. We have 937 churches, 182,000 members. Our conference is divided in 12 districts," he said.
His transition from district superintendent to bishop is a work in progress.
"There are a lot of similarities between the work of a district superintendent and bishop. As superintendent, you still have the bishop. He's the one who makes the final call on things. The rhythm of the work and the relationships you have, the primary focus is similar."
For him, it's been a smooth transition.
"The folks in the Upper New York area have been very gracious because of their willingness to partner with me, accept me and work with me," he said.
He's a new bishop in a two-year-old conference created from four former conferences — North Central New York, Troy, Western New York and Wyoming Conference.
"We're all learning together how to do a new thing in the midst of celebrating past experiences and make room for new ways and new opportunities," Webb said.
Part of the church's outreach is to former members, some raised as children in the faith who have wandered away. To attract them back, it's about relationship and relevance in Webb's estimation.
"To me, the church that is going to engage the world is called to engage the word. We have to make those two things priority. First is relationship, that the church is relevant and speaking the language but not compromising the message, but speaking the message in a way the world understands is relevant," Webb said.
"There are a lot of people who used to be in church and are not in the church, and behavior in the church caused the damage. We in the church have to recognize that and address that. To me, that's why hospitality is a huge part of the church's mission. So when people come, they know they are welcomed, but they are accepted."
John Wesley, an 18th century Anglican cleric and Christian theologian credited with founding Methodism with his brother Charles Wesley, gathered small clusters of women and men who studied together and were spiritually accountable to each other.
"Most churches, mainline or independent, growing numerically and spiritually have within their strategy for ministry small groups," Webb said.
"John Wesley was the guru of small-group ministry. What those class meetings and societies were were small groups of people having relationship with one another and desiring to have a relationship with God. They were there to help each other move forward. People are looking for relationship.
"Most people say they're a friendly church. People aren't looking for a friendly church. They go to church looking for friends. There is a difference. People are looking for significant relationships. First, they are looking for a significant relationship with God but also a significant relationship with other people. Church is a primary place to provide those significant relationships."
A bishop is elected for life unless excommunicated. Webb juggles his official duties while a husband and father of two sons.
"I'm still learning and will be as long as I'm in this role. I try to be pretty intentional and have a day of Sabbath every week. Especially with our child that is home. His activities get put on my calendar. He plays basketball. All his basketball games are on my calendar. Those are appointments. I try to make sure those things are on my schedule," Webb said.
The Upper New York Annual Conference's mission statement is to live the gospel of Jesus Christ and be God's love with our neighbors in all places.
"We can disagree on some issues, but we have to continue to be open to have conversations with one another. Even in the disagreement, we can still live that mission," he said. "I see my roles as keeping us focused on living that mission."
The United Methodist Church's stance officially does not recognize marriage equality. Clergy are not permitted to conduct same-sex unions.
"We're working really hard, in the midst of honoring our United Methodist Church policy, to help people understand that God's grace is available to all, and the church is a place that must be inclusive and open to all," Webb said.
Methodists vote on this nationally divisive issue at General Conference, and the vote there remains the same. He doesn't know if the church's stance will ever change.
"I think the important piece of this is that we are open with one another to have conversations," Webb said. "Even if we disagree on an issue, we can find ways to do that and have those conversations in a spirit of love in ways that don't distract, divide and prevent us from being about the mission of the church, which is to make disciples of Jesus Christ."

Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts: Outdoor Sculpture at the McNay
Thanks to the generous support of the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts beginning in 1997, the McNay Art Museum has acquired major contemporary sculptures for its 23-acre grounds, providing an exciting extension of the museum's indoor sculpture collection to the outdoors. Works by Tony Cragg, Philip Grausman, Alexander Liberman, George Rickey, Joel Shapiro, and a soon-to-be-installed sculpture by Kiki Smith are available to the public during daylight hours.
Additional sculpture in the museum's collection, including works by Barbara Hepworth, Ken Little, Richard Harrell Rogers, Tony Smith, and George Sugarman share the Stieren Center Sculpture Garden and the grounds with those acquired through the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts.

Who is Victoria?
A Santa Fe sculptor and friend of the artist, Victoria Davila modeled for Grausman when he originally made this head in fiberglass, between 1991 and 2000. He then cast a small model in stainless steel; this small version appears in the museum's Sculpture Gallery in the Stieren Center for Exhibitions. Based on the model, the McNay commissioned Grausman to make the large outdoor sculpture.
Click here to see a video of this sculpturebeing installed on the McNay grounds.
About Philip Grausman
Born in New York City, Philip Grausman obtained a BA in art history from Syracuse University and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Grausman has also received numerous grants and awards for his figurative sculptures, including the prestigious Prix de Rome Fellowship in Sculpture at the American Academy in Rome (1962–1965). From 1972 to 2008, Grausman served on the faculty of Yale University as Critic of Architectural Drawing in the Graduate School of Architecture.
The sculptor's early work focused on natural forms representing buds and seeds, which led him to the underlying form of the human head. Grausman focuses on sculptural portraits stripped to their essence, emphasizing structure and contours in modeling his faces. The shiny gray stainless steel surface adds to this sculpture's streamlined but powerful presence.
Critic Michael Brenson wrote in the New York Times in 1987, "Grausman has described his heads as landscapes, and indeed his aluminum seems to sprout and swell like trees and fruit. In looking for a way of extending the tradition of sculpture from nature, he has found a surprising path."
What to Look For
Tony Cragg
British, born 1949
Hole Heads 2005
Bronze, 39 x 43 x 47 in.
Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts
© 2011 Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn
About Tony Cragg
Born in Liverpool, England, Tony Cragg earned a BA from the Wimbledon School of Art and an MA from London's Royal College of Art, where he studied sculpture. He then moved to Germany, where he lives, has his studio, and teaches at the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf.
Cragg's sculptural materials range from found objects, plastic, glass, and plaster to the more traditional media of marble and bronze. In the 1970s, Cragg made relief sculptures, on the wall or the floor, with found objects. In 1988 he won the Great Britain's Turner Prize and represented Britain at the Venice Biennale.
Art critic Peter Schjeldahl wrote in the Village Voice in 1988 about Cragg's work, "Each Cragg work confidently awaits a home in some particular room or outdoor space, to which it will impart civilized value with the spiritual equivalent of perpetual motion."
Tony Cragg's sculptures are in museum collections worldwide; he has won
international acclaim and continues to experiment with media and forms. Recent works, both figurative and abstract, demonstrate Craig's interest in surface quality and how that can be manipulated. The perforated surface and layered composition of Hole Heads reveal his dialogue between interior and exterior.
What to Look For
Alexander Liberman
American, born Russia, 1912–1999
Ascent 1970
Painted steel, 16 x 20 x 25 ft.
Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts
© Liberman Art Partners 2011
How Liberman Made It
First the artist made simple preliminary sketches of Ascent, which is one of five of Liberman's large metal sculptures that incorporate a crushed element. Then, Wm. Layman & Sons of Warren, Connecticut, fabricated the sculptureat the artist's studio/farm in Warren. Liberman supervised and participated in the fabrication, placing one of the large metal cylinders against a tree and ramming it with a bulldozer. Finally the sculpture was painted with a durable red-orange exterior automotive paint to conceal the industrial scrap metal used to make it.
About Alexander Liberman
Born in Kiev, Russia, Alexander Liberman began his studies of art and architecture in Paris in the late 1920s. At the age of 19, he was designing covers for Vu magazine. In 1940, like many artists, he left Nazi-occupied France and arrived in New York City where he continued working in the magazine industry at Vogue, eventually becoming editorial director for all Condé Nast publications (1960–1994).
In the U.S., Liberman began making abstract works on aluminum and Masonite with high-gloss enamel paint, continuing in the 1950s with hardedge geometric paintings and tabletop sculptures. In 1963 he made assemblages out of junk metal, old farm machinery, and steel boilers; in 1966 he started using red paint, his signature color for large public works. Influenced by the scale, composition, and theatricality of European Baroque sculpture, Liberman created sculptures using gasoline storage tanks and other industrial junk metal from the 1970s to the end of his career.
What to Look For
George Rickey
American, 1907–2002
Horizontal Column of Five Squares Excentric II 1994
Stainless steel, 71 1/2 x 134 in.
Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts
Art © Estate of George Rickey/Licensed by VAGA, New York, NY
How it Works
Weighted and finely balanced, the forms float above the reflecting pond, moved by the slightest air current and gravity. Rickey used ball bearings, physics, sun, weights, and wind to create this sculpture. No motors!
About George Rickey
Born in South Bend, Indiana, American kinetic sculptor George Rickey received his initial art training through evening classes in drawing and painting while working on a BA from Balliol College in Oxford, England, and teaching English at the Gardiner School in Paris. In his early 20s, he returned to the U.S., where he taught, maintained a studio, and exhibited his paintings. His first solo exhibition of paintings was at the Denver Art Museum in 1935.
While serving in the U.S. Army Air Corps (1942–1945), he made his first mobile sculptures. Returning to New York, Rickey studied art history at New York University's Institute of Fine Arts under the GI Bill and then taught at various U.S. universities.
Inspired by the sculptures of David Smith––whom he met at Indiana University in Bloomington––and by Alexander Calder's mobiles, Rickey applied the aerodynamic principles and mechanical skills learned in the military, along with his childhood sailing experiences, to use wind effects and gravity into his sculptures. While other kinetic sculptors turned to mechanical technology in their moving works of art, Rickey worked into his 90s, making lightweight, delicately balanced, wind-activated sculptures. More than 300 of his works are on view at airports, museums, universities, and urban centers around the world.
What to Look For
Joel Shapiro
American, born 1941
Untitled 2000
Painted aluminum, 58 1/2 x 31 1/2 x 87 in.
Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts
© 2011 Joel Shapiro / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York
About Joel Shapiro
Born in New York City, Joel Shapiro received both a BA and an MA from New York University (NYU). The son of scientists who were also interested in art, Shapiro took art classes as a child, considering it "fun," but not a potential career. He attended college, graduating with a bachelor's degree in liberal arts, intending to becoming a physician. After graduation he spent two years in the Peace Corps in India, and there he decided to become an artist. Returning to New York, Shapiro rented a studio and registered for graduate work at NYU.
In 1969––the year he received his graduate degree––Shapiro's work appeared in Anti-Illusion: Procedure / Material at the Whitney Museum of American Art. He also began to exhibit sculpture and drawings at the Paula Cooper Gallery, and had his first solo exhibition there in 1970. He soon won critical acclaim for his small plaster, metal, or wooden objects that had an implied human presence, such as sculptures of miniature boats, chars, coffins, and houses. The human form emerged by the late 1970s in Shapiro's chunky wooden constructions, further investigations of abstraction. From these small sculptures, large cast bronze or aluminum works evolved, often retaining the texture of the wood grain.
In Shapiro's human-size sculptures, he does not add extraneous details to the basic geometric form, making works devoid of gender identity, narrative, or context. As his blue painted aluminum sculpture at the McNay demonstrates, the artist has long managed to work comfortably with both abstraction and figuration.
Joel Shapiro has done projects for the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, and has participated in numerous exhibitions including the Whitney Biennials.
What to Look For
Kiki Smith
American, born 1954
Woman and Sheep 2009
Bronze, 18 x 81½ x 51 in. (woman); 30¾ x 41⅞ x 15 in. (sheep)
Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts
About Kiki Smith
Born in Nuremberg, Germany, and raised in South Orange, New Jersey, Kiki Smith studied at Hartford Art School, Connecticut; Lower East Side Printshop; Fashion Institute of Technology; and the Center for Book Arts, the last three all in New York. She received the Skowhegan Medal for Sculpture, from the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Maine, in 2000.
Known for figurative subjects that explore narrative, mythology, folklore, and religion, Smith is also interested in the roles of women and their relationships to nature. In Women and Sheep and other sculptures, she uses the body as a means of expression. This approach relates Smith's work to the history of expressive distortion of figures in sculpture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, begun by Auguste Rodin (1840–1917).
Kiki Smith is the daughter of opera singer Jane Lawrence and Minimalist sculptor Tony Smith, whose monumental black, geometric work Asteriskos (1968) appears on the McNay's grounds.

I figured it was about time to review this place.
Atmosphere - Exactly what I'm looking for from a quality pub. Tons of seating. Signage all over the place displaying the current draft beer menu, as well as the various specials (daily meals, soup, cheesecake, wine, import beer, combos, etc). No televisions. No loud music. Just plenty of comfortable seating in a relaxed and mature atmosphere.
Quality - The focus is primarily on English ales and Euro lagers. I cannot put into words how truly perfect most of their offerings are. And always consistent.
Service - The servers are all well trained. Prompt and courteous, what more do you want? I've NEVER had an issue in the many years I've been going here.
Selection - They have a standard lineup of about 6-7 brews, plus they rotate in about 6-7 "seasonals" at any given time. The first Friday of every month is Firkin Friday, which is a special Cask Ale, and always a treat. They easily offer over 30 different types of beer throughout the year, and with the RARE exception, they are all outstanding.
They also have a decent import bottle list, but when their brew is so good, why bother?
Food - I always eat when I'm there. The bulk of the menu is standard pub fare, but done well. I wouldn't call it upscale or fancy, but definitely a cut above the rest... it's not a bunch of greasy deep fried slop. The daily soup/sandwich/entre specials are what I usually stick to, as these are always unique and not available on the regular menu (ie; jerk pork tenderloin with mango salsa).
Value - What kills me about this place is that not only do they serve some of the best beer anywhere, but their draft prices are the best in Saskatchewan. $4.75 for 20oz happy hour pints ($5.50 regular). Or you can go somewhere else in town and get a $7 pint of Stella or Guinness. Most food items are in the $7-$10 range, including daily specials.
This place is truly the hidden gem of the Canadian brewing scene and the Regina pub/restaurant scene.

This place is good fun. Had the hockey game on one screen, had live jazz across the bar and an incredible amount of their own beers on tap, as well as some guest taps, although I didn't have any of those.
Food was good, they give you a ton of fries and they have malt vinegar!

Every month my friends and I pick a different place to get together. Tonight was Bushwakker's. Really the ONLY place to go for good beer in Regina. There are other places with decent brews, but Bushwakker's is the only place willing to experiment with different beers and have a monthly "guest import" on tap.
Located in the warehouse district just minutes north of downtown, Bushwakker's is a nice comfortable pub atmosphere. High ceilings and lots of wood. Booths, tables, bar stools. Their brewing awards are framed and on display around the pub.
Service is excellent as always. Two comments: Our server was friendly, fast, efficient and knowledgable about the wide array of products. I went to check out what beers they had in bottles for off-sale and had a nice chat with (who I believe is) their head bartender or bar manager. We had a nice chat about what I look for in beer, my beer history, the pub's history and brewmaster history, among other topics. Very friendly and helpful. Seemed to really appreciate talking to someone who is passionate about beer.
They had 13 of their own beers on tap, as well as a "guest import" on tap and another about 30 Canadian micros and imports in bottles. They typically have a cask-conditioned beer on tap, although they didn't on this visit. The first friday of each month (First Firkin Friday) they unveil a cask conditioned beer and it's available as long as the firkin holds out. Be it one day or one month, then after that... no more. No macros available at all. The only brewpub in town where you can't get a macro and where you can get this array of bottle beer selection and the only place to offer cask conditioned beers. You could probably get a better selection of bottles in a bigger center (Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal), but for Regina this is truly staggering. You can't get any of these bottles in the Saskatchewan Liquor Board Stores.
The food is a nice combonation of pub grub and nicer, higher end restaurant fare. My wife and I shared a Chocolate Stout Cake dessert and it was absolutely fabulous. Saturday night special is "Steak and a Pint" and my steak was a little small, but done as ordered and alright in flavour. Several unique local influenced items on the menu (Saskatchewan Hot Plate, Buffalo Steak, Buffalo Burger, etc).
This is simply THEE BEST craft beer experience in Regina. I know some people consider it boring because there are no tv's full of sports or pool tables or dart boards or video lottery terminals, but that's because they focus on the beverages and service. Their selection of single malt scotch is by far the best in Regina. Again, several selections that you can't buy in a liquor store here.
Parking can be a hassle. No lots, just side streets and there are 7 or 8 popular night spots (brewpub, beer bar, dance bars, martini bars, pool halls) within 3 blocks on the same street so it can be difficult to find a close spot.

Had to make a side trip on our recent trip to Moose Jaw.
Located in the Old Warehouse district of Regina. It is in an industrial area, so there was a very large lunch crowd. Great selection of their own brews on tap - 7 regular offerings, too bad they were out of their summer fruit beer. Also have an extensive beer menu of hard to get bottles. The rotating guest draft when we were there was Affligem served in the proper glass. Food menu was also very good, with mix of traditional pub food, and more higher end selections. Very comfortable atmosphere in large building that still felt cozy and warm. Our waitress was very freindly and knowledgable and offered samples of each beer before we ordered a full pint. Large selection of their own beers available to go, package in large 650ml bottles. A MUST see if you are ever in the area.

This place rocks. One of the best brewpubs in Canada, for sure, and certainly the best brewpub in the middle interior of Canada. Located in the warehouse district of Regina (like a 15-20 minute walk from downtown) this brewpub has a great atmosphere from the minute you walk in. Nice wood tones fill the place up and give it a really good lozal boozer feel. Tons of tables are scattered along the floor and the bar is nice, and of a good size. The beer quality is phenomenal here. Their UK IPA is killer, Helles lager was beautiful, and the Pale ale is great as well. Not to mention the samples I got of a centennial wheat wine, a grape mead, a killer west coast style pale ale, and an award winning homebrew competition winner rauch bier (omg, was that one good!). The food quality of my pizza was also quite lovely, and you get alot for a little bit of $ in this place, for sure. Service was perfect as I got the uber tour of this place from the brewer himself, David. He was great and showed me the whole operation and chatted for hours. What a great guy, and a great place. Certainly doing it for all of the right reasons. The selection is also killer, with about 5 lagers, and 7 or 8 ales on tap. You should see the cold storage room in this place. Unreal. Definately a must stop, or almost the only stop, when you are a serious beer lover hunting around in Regina. Like they say, this place is really making "beer for beer hunters". Thanks again David. My only complaint is that I want you guys to open up another one of these closer to me! Maybe even the US? Or at least close to the border! Please!

The pretexts have been dismantled and the genuine war aims, for this war and for wars to come, are spelled out nowhere better than in the words of many members of the current US's regime in their 'Project for a New American Century'.

Its propaganda and economic levers are every bit as important. Before threatening to destroy a country, the

Some of the most innovative economic experiments come from people who have been neglected, excluded, embargoed, terrorized, or otherwise excluded. The Zapatistas struggle against paramilitary and military blockade and occupation by developing co-operatives based on the 'solidarity economy'.

Without diesel, Bougainvilleans discovered a new, truly revolutionary use for coconuts. Coconut oil was fermented in upturned fridges discarded at the beginning of the crisis, boiled and used as fuel to run generators and the specially-adapted four wheel drives needed to cross the rugged terrain. The abandoned mine became a hardware supermarket for spare parts which were salvaged, carried across the island, and put to new uses. Solar power was harnessed to charge batteries for two-way radios and satellite phones – an important link with the outside world. As one Bougainvillean woman comments at the beginning of the film: "The war was like a university – it made us creative. We thought for ourselves and we discovered alternative ways to survive".'
In his new book, "Epidemic of Globalization†(Palestine Research and Publishing Foundation, 2002), Palestinian writer Adel Samara discusses the model of 'Development by Popular Protection' (DBPP). Based on the experiences of the first Intifada in the occupied territories in the 1980s, DBPP seeks to develop a parallel economy, creating co-operatives and building local production and gradually boycotting both working and consuming in capitalist institutions. Rather than seeking state power, DBPP happens directly at the level of the people. Samara argues that the strategy of DBPP was successful in the First Intifada and was defeated not by violence, but by

The list of Honda models for 2012 keeps growing as a dozen new additions expand the upcoming season lineup. This latest release includes the substantially revamped CBR1000RR—the essential superbike—offering the perfect balance of power and handling designed to work together as one complete package. Sportbike aficionados will also be glad to see the CBR600RR in 2012, and riders partial to cruisers will have plenty to talk about. Honda's line of V-twin cruisers includes eight different models: the Sabre®, Stateline®, Interstate™ and Fury, plus Honda's 750cc line of V-twins—the most pop
Of course, the key word is "option". Nonetheless, the number of standard
transmission VFRs produced will be far smaller than the DCT version, as Honda is banking on the allure of the DCT technology.
Whether it's focus or fun, 250 or 45, Trey Canard has found equilibrium. It's nothing new for a Lites rider to jump onto a 450 and race the premier class at rounds that are not in their series, but it is a bit rare for them to become an instant success and a podium mainstay.
Like any of us who've been around for a while, Honda's VFR has changed. Meet one on the street and you'd never guess it was once the VF750F that tossed the sportbike world on its collective head in 1983. There's no hint of Fred Merkel's '85 AMA Superbike Championship, Wayne Rainey's five-straight wins in '86, or the 190-mph RC45 that won eight of 10 races under Miguel DuHamel in '95. Look closely and you can catch a glint of the broadband '98 VFR800. But beyond that three-letter prefix and its basic engine configuration, this VFR bears no resemblance to its illustrious ance
In an effort to keep pace in the hotly contested 250 four-stroke motocross racing class, Big Red continues to enhance its 2012 Honda CRF250R dirt bike. Like its big brother ('12 CRF450R), it gets a host of intelligent refinements making it a better overall platform to campaign on the racetrack or trail, as demonstrated at Southern California's Piru Motocross Park.

Lawmakers give initial OK to climate change study
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) _ Nebraska lawmakers gave first round approval to a measure that would launch a state review of climate change.
Lawmakers voted 35-0 to advance the proposal by Sen. Ken Haar of Malcolm.
The bill would require the state's climate-assessment commission to study and report on how climate change is impacting the state.
Nebraska lawmakers who do not believe in global warming blocked a portion of the bill that would have let a climatologist join the state climate committee that assesses drought, severe weather and climate change. State senators also approved an amendment to call climate change cyclical throughout the bill.
The measure advanced after a handful of lawmakers denounced global warming. About 97 percent of scientists agree human activities contribute to climate change.
