Awadagin Pratt to join NW Sinfonietta for 'Embargo' premiere
Awadagin Pratt will be the guest conductor as Northwest Sinfonietta debuts NWS music director Christophe Chagnard's "Embargo: Suite Cubana" on April 19, 2013, in Seattle.
Special to The Seattle Times
Awadagin Pratt with Northwest Sinfonietta
7:30 p.m. Friday, Benaroya Hall, 200 University St., Seattle; $27-$55 (206-215-4747 or www.seattlesymphony.org).
Who knew so much good could come from Tacoma having a sister city in Cuba?
Last year, Northwest Sinfonietta, the Tacoma-based professional orchestra that regularly brings its exciting programs to Seattle's Benaroya Hall, organized two cultural exchange events with the Cuban town of Cienfuegos.
In January 2012, Northwest Sinfonietta became only the third American orchestra to perform in Cuba since the country's 1959 revolution. In October, members of Cienfuegos chamber group Orquestra de Cámara Concierto Sur joined the Sinfonietta and music director Christophe Chagnard for local performances of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
That rare experience for classical musicians from two adversarial nations yielded something else: Chagnard's "Embargo: Suite Cubana," a new composition to be performed by Northwest Sinfonietta Friday in Benaroya Hall, followed by weekend performances in Tacoma and Puyallup. (See www.nwsinfonietta.org for locations.)
Chagnard will be turning his conductor's role over to a guest: the celebrated pianist Awadagin Pratt, who last performed with NWS in 2002.
"He's a great pianist," Chagnard says by phone, "but I've seen him conduct and liked his approach. I very much trust him to bring out all of the music in 'Embargo.' "
"I think Christophe captured the spirit of Cuba very well," says Pratt. "I'm excited to hear what the piece sounds like with the orchestra and added percussion. It's well-crafted and pretty evocative of the spirit of Cuba."
Pratt will also take the reins for a pair of Mozart compositions: the Piano Concerto No. 23 (he will play as well as conduct) and Symphony No. 39.
"The symphony is one of his last," Pratt says. "It's a very interesting work, capturing epic and operatic qualities. There's a high drama feeling to it — a lot of energy and drive, a lot of rhythmic and harmonic tension."
As for the concerto, he says "there is so much joy and fun in the piece. It shows a love of playing music. It's tremendously positive and energizing. The slow, second movement is profoundly beautiful, a distillation of loneliness. But the last movement is rollicking and frolicking."
Pratt's rise in music came at a cost to the sports world. Though he began studying both violin and piano at a tender age, the Pittsburgh native proved so adept at tennis he achieved ranking in the Midwest and was offered tennis scholarships. Instead, he accepted a violin scholarship to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, later transferring to the Peabody Conservatory of Music, where he earned degrees in piano, violin and conducting.
"I knew music was the most important thing in my life," he says. "But I was pressured to choose between violin and piano. Playing both gave me insights into music others didn't have, but at 23 I finally committed to piano."
Pratt, 47, has performed three times in the White House: twice for the Clintons, and once for the Obamas.
"It's incredible," he says. "Any time you play anywhere, you give 100 percent. At the White House you give 1,000 percent. There's no better address at which to play."

Cameron to push his plans to EU leaders
The Prime Minister has insisted he is "sure" there will be treaty change in Europe ahead of a series of talks with EU leaders.
David Cameron is facing resistance from France and Germany over his plans to create fresh EU agreements ahead of his plan to stage an in/out referendum by 2017.
In his keynote speech on Britain's future in Europe earlier this year, Mr Cameron argued a new settlement was needed before voters were asked if they wanted to end ties with Brussels and suggested some reforms would need treaty change.
Ahead of talks with French president Francois Hollande and German chancellor Angela Merkel, he told reporters three treaties had been put forward and "I'm sure there will be treaty change".

The days of one-size-fits-all are long gone. Consumers want options: less salt, more flavor, extra ketchup, no ketchup, no carbs, more fiber, no gluten, no dairy, more convenience … . And they want variety—something that is not the same-old, same-old but is, at the same time, familiar.
— Nestle' Professional Culinary Team
Indulgent comfort foods such as home-style mac-and-cheese entrée dishes, possibly with a protein incorporated. Increased opportunities for the guest to fine-tune or customize product offerings based on individual lifestyle motivations (i.e., health, weight loss, etc.) without sacrificing flavor.
— Jon Miller
El Pollo Loco
Fewer preservatives and cleaner ingredient decks.
— Hilliard Creath
Slow-cooked foods; 2009 is going to be a trying year. Some taste of home and better times could be popular.

BHPetrol Customers Golf Challenge 2014
Date: 18 June 2014
The BHPetrol Customer Golf Challenge 2014 was held once again at Palm Garden (IOI) Golf Club on June 18, 2014. This annual key customers recognition program play host to 100 golfers from our key customers and business partners from all over the country, Singapore and Thailand. The weather was great and the golf course was at tip top conditions. Golfers enjoyed the game with good company and some managed to conquer the course well, especially the green speed. Others got lucky in the lucky draw. Most importantly, everyone went back with great prizes and good memory.
With the courtesy and contribution from the golfers, we managed to raise RM5,000 for a non-profit orphanage home, Ephratha Home via Bullseye Competition. Ephratha Home, a Rawang based Orphanage home is aims to succor unfortunate children and old dying destitute by providing individualized care. They hope that with this humble contribution, it will help the underprivileged children with the essential needs such as food, shelter and education.
It is being our tradition, the BHPetrol Customers Golf Challenge since 8 years ago to raise fund for the charity during the tournament. We sincerely appreciate the contribution and support from the golfers all these years.

A little something to get you through this humpday. ilan Bluestone & Jerome Isma-Ae – Tension (Original Mix) from Anjunabeats. #nowplaying
Never date a girl who travels unless you can keep up with her. And if you fall in love with one, don't you dare keep her...
...let her go.
A film by David Joseph Falossi II, adapted from this story by Adi Zarsadias.
Happy Thursday, y'all.
i shared some of my photos from our trip to Greece as a part of Herschel Supply's #WellTraveled Series. Check them out on their blog!
Have you seen Tiny Atlas Quarterly? I love how they are showcasing awesome destinations around the world through their beautiful photography. One of my photos from the Blue Lagoon made the cut on their Instagram this morning. Yay! If you haven't seen their instagram account yet, go there now! See my other featured instagrams from the Parthenon and Mykonos.

A few weekends ago we had a wedding party to attend in San Antonio so we packed up the car and headed out on Friday for a quick getaway. San Antonio is only a 1 1/2 hour drive away from Austin, making it perfect for a weekend trip.
We scored a last minute hotel on Hotwire.com right by the Alamo, which worked because it was a central location and we could easily walk around. Last year we snagged a room at Hotel Havana at the friends and family rate for our anniversary and turned it into a full on vacation. Exploring the river walk by foot, stopping in for a drink at the oldest bar in San Antonio, The Esquire Tavern.
If you haven't been to Hotel Havana, I recommend checking it out. It is one of four of Liz Lambert's character-filled hotels in Texas (Austin based Hotel St. Cecilia, Hotel San Jose and the Marfa teepee and trailer compound, El Cosmico). They serve a great brunch at Ocho, the hotel's Cuban inspired restaurant and it is worth stopping in just to check out the awesome decor. The entire place is an indoor/outdoor sunroom lined with lush green trees and filled with blue and gold velvet couches, red oriental rugs, turquoise fiesta ware and a whole lot of charm.
On Saturday before the wedding party we stopped at Ocho for breakfast and a strong cup of coffee before setting off to explore the old missions of San Antonio by bike. We started at the Blue Star brewing company and followed the long and hilly mission bike trail all the way down to the oldest and most preserved one of the lot, Mission Concepcion.
It was fun to get on a bike (I don't think I've ridden one in at least a year!) and just ride. And, it gave us the freedom to explore the muggy city with a little bit of wind in our hair.
We had dinner one night at La Fonda on Main which didn't disappoint (LOVED the spanish style courtyard with colorful tiles and trees). We are saving the Japanese Gardens and Pearl Brewery area for our next trip down there.
Where are your favorite places to visit in San Antonio?

Hello summer! It is like we woke up in the tropics the last couple of days here in Austin. I guess it is really here. These goals lists are always fun to read over at Bleubird (hat tip to you, James). I'm following her lead this month and filling out one of my own.
eating / raspberry pie a la mode (thanks sugar mamma and postable)
drinking / brooklyn lager and shiner ruby redbird
practicing / my patience. must find more.
mastering / the art of yoga. will help with said patience, above. I want to be able to do this move. p.s. i'm loving yoga_girl on instagram, such a great force of light and love.
learning / spanish. again (still?). it will come back, i'm sure.
trying / to institute a "digital sundown", putting away all electronics by 10 pm. it has happened once this month so far...
playing / like a kid until i'm so tired I can't stay awake at night. also in a sand volleyball in a league on monday nights.
finishing / all the things on my to-do list for the summer. including replanting my herb garden (am i too late?) and fixing up my festival bike. yes, that is just a crappy bike that I keep tied to a fence with the sole purpose of getting me to sxsw and acl.
reading / #girlboss. i'm still up in the air about it. what did you think?
remembering / to live within my means and be thankful for what I have.
wearing / colorful flowy dresses from free people, white birkenstocks and this nars multiples lip & cheek tint in Laos.
cooking / chicken souvlaki with homemade tzatziki. I cannot get enough greek food after our recent trip.
working / on things that matter. less fluff more focus.
traveling / to berlin and prague in september.
wanting / more vacation time. and a nespresso coffee maker.
What are your goals for this summer?
photo by me / i'm @tygovaars on instagram
This July Mitch and I will have been together for 8 years (yikes!). I can hardly believe it has been that long. One of the things I've learned from having a partner in crime for so long, is that it is extremely important to set aside time to do things together, purposefully. Just being in the same room does not mean you are getting to know the person sitting next to you on the couch. As a couple, I have come to cherish the time we get to spend together on while on vacation. Without the distractions of everyday life, emails, texts, phones, TVs, Ipads (screens really get to me, can you tell...
When we are away we spend more time observing our surroundings and actually talking while looking at each other. Watching the sunset, sipping a cold beer at a local tavern, walking aimlessly through the town with no plan other than to just walk. Not only does travel shake up the senses, but it also shakes up our relationship. We take time to eat breakfast together, talk to each other while looking, not over our screens, but actually AT each other, or spend a few extra minutes in be bed in the morning drifting in and out of sleep instead of checking our phones.
Seems nearly impossible while at home, but at the core of things, all we have really done is turn off our electronics and simply be present. I believe the same mentality and practice can be applied to your own city and day to day life. Take the time to discover things around you as if it were your first time together.
So in the spirit of this revelation and summertime – longer daylight hours means more time, yay! – I'm kicking off a new series here on the blog called "Explored" where a few times a month we go on a new adventure, take up a new activity, host a dinner, go out to breakfast somewhere new and focus on discovering things in our day to day life as if we are traveling.
I'm hoping that after we get a few under our belt, we might even want to leave our electronics behind. Check them at the door, turn them to silent - whatever needs to happen so that we are really there, and not distracted.
Have an idea for a fun daytime date or activity? So far we have been paddle boarding, played sand volleyball, walked to dinner from our house for a Friday night date here. At the end of this I'm expecting to have quite the stockpile of city guide/date night/ to do recommendations around Austin. Here's to exploring!
Images by me via iphone/instagram (I'm @tygovaars)
It is no secret I've been obsessing over lavender locks lately (say that three times fast). Anyway. I really want some purple hair. Or maybe it is lilac. I also love that in between color that fades from light purple to pink. More in the way that I could just have it for a few days and then switch back to my normal color without going through the awkward grow-out phase. But still. Aren't these dreamy? Maybe I will bite the bullet for summer.
This sweet haircut and subtle pink tint really makes me want to take the plunge. It looks almost work appropriate on her doesn't it? Or maybe I will just stick to lavender hair chalk....
P.S. Several of these photos have been photoshopped (not by moi) but you can find the originals floating around if you look. Pretty convincing, right? Shop some sweet alternatives to semi-permanent tress dye below.
We arrived in Athens with low expectations. Everyone we talked to said it was dirty, big, crowded and just a city you pass through. But from the moment we arrived (maybe it had to do something with the view from our hotel), I fell in love.
All of the winding back streets let out on colorful murals and greenery.
Hotels covered from head to toe in blossoming bougainvillea.
In total, we were in Athens for 3 days, which was the perfect amount of time to get to know the city before we set out for Mykonos and Santorini. If you find yourself in Athens, here are my recommendations for things to do and sights to see.
Get some Greecian sandals made at the famed Poet Sandal Maker. Slightly touristy for my regular travel-taste, but awesome and worth it. I got the "Cleopatra" and the "Ionian".
Psaros is one of the oldest Taverns in the Plaka, which is also a great area to walk around. The whole area is really cute at night, with a bunch of winding little roads and cobblestone, hills and lights.
Have a drink on one of the many rooftops in the city – we stayed at The Hotel Grande Bretagne which has a CRAZY view of the Parthenon and Parliament from the top.
Watch the changing of the guards at the Parliament building or just go hang out with one the guards during the day.
Wander through the National Gardens. A free and easy afternoon stroll.
Drink a frappe or two (or three). I liked them "medium, sweet". Here's how to make a Greek style frappe at home.
We spent maybe 3-4 hours total wandering around and walking through all of the sites. Bring sunscreen and book a guide if you want to learn the history while you wander. The museum has a nice cafe on the rooftop that is a great place to rest your legs (and drink more frappes!).
Head to the central market (the one for locals) is filled with stalls selling nuts, fish, meats. Stimulating to all of the senses, and a great way to get a feel for the country your are in - I love wandering through the real markets wherever we go.
Enjoy the view from the top. Our hotel's view was good enough so we ended up just eating a gyro at a cafe near the base. Which on that note...
Seriously delicious and the cheapest way to feed two for lunch. If you do takeaway at any of the busy restaurants you save a few extra euros (we ate for 6-7 Euros total for lunch this way every day) and get your food way before the people waiting to be sat.
Stay tuned for more from our Greece trip!
I think this line was made for me. The breezy shapes and summer color palate are calling my name. All I seem to want lately are big flowy dresses in solid colors.

Xbox One costs more to make than the PS4, thanks to ESRAM and Kinect November 26, 2013 at 4:27 pm
If you bought an Xbox One for $500, rest assured that you got a good deal: It cost Microsoft $471 to make the Xbox One, new Kinect, and everything else in the box. After the retailers' cut, Microsoft loses money on every Xbox One sold. At $471, the Xbox One costs about $90 more than the PS4 — a cost difference that is almost entirely down to the new Kinect, which costs around $75 to make.
PS4 vs. Xbox One: Side-by-side speed tests to decide which console is faster (video) November 22, 2013 at 3:12 pm
To test the comparative speed of the two consoles, we put the Xbox One and PS4 through a few speed tests here in the ExtremeTech bunker — not frame rate benchmarks, but tests that actually discern which of the next-gen consoles actually feels faster in everyday use.
Xbox One vs. PS4: How the final hardware specs compare November 22, 2013 at 10:02 am
Tomorrow, Microsoft will finally unveil the Xbox 720. Not only will we find out its real name (the money seems to be on Xbox Infinity), but more importantly we will find out how the Xbox 720′s hardware stacks up against the PS4 and gaming PCs. Merely comparing hardware specs is incredibly naive, though — to find out why, read on.
Xbox One review: Better than the PS4 at launch, but its gimmicks will only take it so far November 22, 2013 at 9:45 am
It's hard to say whether the Xbox One is $100 better than the PS4, but I can at least tell you that the Kinect (the reason why the Xbox is more expensive) is an impressive piece of hardware that you'll (usually) enjoy using. I can also tell you that the Xbox One exclusives, Forza 5 and Ryse, are prettier and more polished than the PS4′s exclusive launch titles.
How is the PS4 smaller, lighter, and yet more powerful than the Xbox One? November 21, 2013 at 3:39 pm
We've spent a lot of time comparing the PS4 and Xbox One in terms of hardware specs, software, and games — but one thing we haven't discussed is their engineering. Physically, the Xbox One and PS4 are very different consoles: While the Xbox is huge and boxy, the PS4 is much slimmer and lighter. Furthermore, despite being thinner and lighter, the PS4 has an integrated PSU, while the Xbox One has a separate power brick. Is Sony simply superior to Microsoft when it comes to industrial design and engineering?
More money than sense: Playing the PS4 on the Xbox One November 20, 2013 at 3:23 pm
One of the defining features of the Xbox One is that it has an HDMI input socket, allowing you to plug a wide range of media devices into the console. The intended purpose of this HDMI socket is to allow you to watch TV and play games side-by-side on the same screen — but in practice, you can plug just about anything into the Xbox One's HDMI socket, including the PS4. And so that's what we did — on a 65-inch 4K television no less.
The Xbox One's most puzzling missing feature: Remote play November 20, 2013 at 9:22 am
Microsoft's Xbox One debuts today, but true PC – Xbox integration remains elusive, even though the two products are more alike than ever. How much longer do we have to wait for a game streaming solution between Microsoft's divisions?
PS4: Install an SSD or HHD to speed up game loading time by 20 seconds or more November 19, 2013 at 5:16 pm
The PS4 ships with a reasonably-sized 500GB hard drive, but it's quite lackluster in terms of speed. The drive only spins at 5400RPM, but it can be easily upgraded to a better drive without voiding your warranty. So, what happens when the default drive is replaced with a solid state drive or a hybrid drive? The real-world tests are in, and the results are actually quite surprising.
PS4 price, hardware specs, and games detailed November 15, 2013 at 10:15 am
At long last, we finally know everything about Sony's upcoming PS4. The PS4 smacks the Xbox One straight in the gut: The PS4 will not be always-online, will allow you to freely trade your games, and will cost just $400. In short, it seems like the PS4 now has a sizable lead over the Xbox One. Read on for our full analysis of the PS4′s price, hardware, software, connectivity, and games.
How to replace or upgrade your PS4 hard drive November 14, 2013 at 5:27 pm
One of the joys of the PS3 was its easily upgradeable hard drive — and the PS4 is no different. By sliding off the PS4′s case and removing a single screw, you can easily slot in a replacement hard drive or SSD. The ability to upgrade to a larger hard drive in your PS4 will be very useful if you buy a lot of games, or if you opt to fully install games to reduce load times. If money's no object, and you want your games to load really quickly, you can also replace your PS4′s standard hard drive with an SSD. To find out how, read on for our guide on replacing the PS4′s hard drive.

On the Road to Wisconsin
What a beautiful drive through the southern parts of South Dakota, Minnesota, and into Wisconsin! Rolling hills of yellow wild flowers in South Dakota. European-style farmhouses and those giant wind turbines everywhere along I-90 through Minnesota. And the giant bluffs along the flood-swollen Mississippi River as we entered Wisconsin ...
LaCrosse and Onalaska, WI
Got up this morning and decided to do more exploring of Wisconsin --- farms, farms, more farms. We hit the road around 11 a.m. and headed further south/west to the towns of La Crosse and Onalaska. La Crosse and Onalaska sit on the banks of the Mississippi River so we were able to do some walking along the river and do some picture taking. Very very pretty. There are lots of house boats along the River which was something to see. They were all lined up ...
Night 2: Driftless in the Driftless Area
... prairies that are absolutely teeming with red-winged blackbirds. I think it is blackbird heaven actually. Our campsite is in a glen of maples and elms. At the forest's edge, about 50 feet away, is a wall of sumacs and the prairie is beyond. Mosquitos abound. We paid $18 for a spot close to the bathroom. It is quiet. There's no one here except for a few other campers, a few huge toads , a bunch of rabbits, and the crickets. Pretty soon the crickets will also be ...
Camping by the Missippi
Our first night of real camping. We stayed on Goose island camp ground, which was next to the Missippi river. There had been a lot of recent rain so the river was up much higher than normal. Many camp sites were flooded out. It did rain while we were there but we did not let that dampen our fun.
More flooding?
So this is turning into the theme of our trip. We got 3-4" of rain this morning and now have flash flooding in Wisconsin. It seems to be following us. As we get ready to take off and go home we are hoping to avoid our water fiasco yesterday. I am worried as I think I just saw some guy who looked like Noah walking by collecting ...

CHICAGO — — As a young woman, Donna Moncivaiz would go to tanning salons looking for that perfect summer glow.
Now 51, Moncivaiz suffers from late-stage melanoma and says the cancer has spread to her lymph nodes, gall bladder, liver and brain. The Beach Park mother also allowed her daughter to tan and, at 25, she too was diagnosed with early-stage melanoma.
Doctors attribute both women's melanoma to tanning beds and time spent outside without sunscreen, and that's why Moncivaiz has been among the most vocal supporters of proposed legislation that Gov. Pat Quinn signed Thursday to ban indoor tanning in Illinois for anyone younger than 18.
"I don't want any mom to feel the guilt I feel, or go through what I'm going through," said Moncivaiz, who testified in favor of the bill during the spring legislative session.
Quinn signed the bill along with a measure that prohibits anyone under age 18 from smoking electronic cigarettes.
"I am signing these new laws today so that our youth and their families can be spared the consequences of very serious and preventable health problems that are caused by dangerous habits formed at a young age," Quinn said. "Together these measures will protect the health of Illinois youth and save lives in the long-run."
On the tanning issue, Quinn's decision meant he agreed with critics that the health concerns merit government prohibition, rather than merely leaving the choice of tanning to youths and their parents, as industry officials had argued as the legislation was debated by lawmakers.
Dr. Judy Knox, a dermatologist from Springfield, has long advocated for a teen tanning ban, saying sometimes parents don't know their kids are using tanning beds. She said ten sessions in a tanning bed doubles the risk for melanoma.

The first sentence of the article clearly states that the 16th amendment was ratified February 3,1913. I did not claim that it was enacted that day. And if you follow the link to the ATR website they called it the 100th anniversary, because it was symbolically the 3rd of February.

The 16th Amendment merely authorized Congress to enact a federal income tax, which it did ion October 3, 1913.

Today is the 100th birthday of the income tax. On February 3, 1913 the 16th amendment was ratified, which enabled the establishment of the federal income tax. This is ever in our mind as tax season is now upon us.

THE BREATHARIAN – A breatharian is said to be someone who never eats or drinks as they can exist on cosmic micro-food. These people exist but are rarely public unless it is their service to be so. However there are also now many people who can choose to be nourished directly from prana and no longer need to take physical food yet most of these people – like myself – still choose to drink for various reasons. In our living on light section we share more on the "how" of this as well as providing in-depth experiential research. On this breatharian page we wish to share a small selection of videos of other people's journeys with living on prana plus a few meditations to increase your chi flow.

May 15th 2011 – France:- Jasmuheen writes … "A few days ago I found myself in the energy field of a Swami Lakshmana Charayulu who is one of these Swami's that I'd heard about but never actually met, who'd spent 92 days living underground with no food, no fluid and no oxygen. For him it wasn't an issue because he breathes like we teach people to breathe, which is through the very atoms of their being. We know, as Nassim Haramein has now proven, that every atom is a door to an inner universe. Through each deep inhalation we can draw this pranic energy through the atoms into cellular structure to nourish cells, and then let that energy flow out through the pores of our skin into the world to nourish others open to this. We call this the Love Breath technique and this is how the yogis breathe when they are buried alive for periods of time to prove the power of this inner force and its ability to sustain us regardless of whether we have food, fluid or even oxygen. Meeting him and talking about my journey and also his, with living purely on prana, was like a meeting of old souls and both of us were very comfortable enough to exchange gifts and information that touched us both deeply."

Blogs : An Australian tragicomedy
News : Taylor given chance against Australians
Players/Officials: Nathan Lyon | Mitchell Starc
Series/Tournaments: Australia tour of England and Scotland
Nathan Lyon has the chance to press for a Test match recall against Sussex this week as Australia named a hodgepodge XI for the three-day match starting on Friday that includes the Hampshire Academy scholar Ashton Turner, one of three spinners in the team.
The decision to rest the captain Michael Clarke, plus his deputy Brad Haddin, Shane Watson, Chris Rogers, Peter Siddle and Ryan Harris has bizarrely left a 16-man squad - minus the injured James Pattinson and the absent David Warner - two players short of the numbers required for the tour match, forcing the Western Australian Turner to be included while the young South Australia batsman Travis Head is 12th man. Ashton Agar is selected despite carrying a hip injury through the Lord's Test.
While the likes of Matthew Wade, Mitchell Starc and Jackson Bird will all be pushing for recalls and bowling allrounder James Faulkner straining for a Test debut, Lyon has the chance to regain his Test place after being treated rather brusquely by the selectors for the second tour in succession. In India Lyon was dropped following the first Test in Chennai despite claiming four wickets at some cost, and rebounded with career-best figures in the fourth Test of the series.
Yet he again found himself surplus to requirements at the start of the Investec Ashes, as the left-arm spin of 19-year-old Agar was preferred. While Agar made himself an instant hero by stroking his way to a memorable 98 from No. 11 at Trent Bridge, his understandable struggles to make an impact as a fledgling spin bowler suggest that Lyon will again be called upon as the fall-back option.
Lyon took his demotion for Agar with remarkable grace and was among the most excited figures on the Nottingham balcony when his spin rival played his incredible innings. But he admitted it had been hard to take, particularly as he had started the tour in fine wicket-taking form.
"It's not easy to cop when you're playing Test match cricket," Lyon said. "To be left out of the Australian team for an Ashes Test match is not that easy to take but that comes down to the personality of the person. I believe you still have to give for the team.
"I'm just trying to put the ball into the same spot and trying to get some good drop and bounce. I'm really happy with the way they're coming out, actually. Best I've bowled in a long time. I believe my best ball can get the best batters in the world out. The thing is that I have to keep doing that over and over and over."
At Lord's, Lyon said he sat thinking about how he would bowl at England's batsmen while mixing the drinks with his fellow reserve Starc, who would also prove a useful ally for the offspinner should both play at Old Trafford due to the footmarks he can create outside off stump.
"I've been sitting there with Mitch Starc just mixing the hydrolyte just talking about it how we'd go about it if we were out there," Lyon said. "I'm thinking about that every cricket game, definitely. I'm definitely ready. I'll have to come out at Hove and bowl well and enjoy it firstly and really get this momentum swinging around for Australia."
Turner, who will make his first-class debut, has been playing for Chichester Priory Park as part of the development programme run by Cricket Australia and Hampshire. He has taken 18 wickets at an average of 40.78 for the Sussex Premier League club this season.
Australians to play Sussex: Ed Cowan (capt), Phillip Hughes, Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith, Matthew Wade (wkt), James Faulkner, Ashton Agar, Ashton Turner, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Jackson Bird. 12th man: Travis Head.

Professional Development | News
Discovery Education is offering its Common Core-focused teacher professional development academies free through the 2013-2014 school year.
Discovery's Common Core Academies are in-person workshops that provide hands-on training for educators on using technology to integrate Common Core State standards into classroom instruction. There are also academies designed for school administrators focused on leadership and teacher support.
"Designed specifically to support educators using digital media to enhance instruction and engage students, the Common Core Academies provide practical strategies and tactics that support long-term action planning as well as immediate implementation," according to Discovery.
The academies focus on the fundamentals of instruction, leadership, assessment, and curriculum and cover three key areas: Common Core English Language Arts for teachers, Common Core Math for teachers, and leadership and support strategies for administrators.
"The Discovery Education Common Core Academy is a powerful professional development event. The wealth of strategies, tactics and resources I learned during the Academy helped me leverage the digital tools in my classroom to quickly change my instruction to meet the new standards," said Benjamin Sung, fifth-grade math and science teacher at Natick Public Schools in Massachusetts, in a statement released by Discovery. "In addition, it's a great forum for discussing practical and immediate implementation ideas and collaborating with other educators from different districts and schools."
The first round of free Common Core Academies will begin Oct. 18 in locations in nine states: Colorado, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. Additional locations will be added throughout the school year.
Complete details can be found on Discovery's Common Core Academies portal.
