Theatre Across America: Approaching a New Millennium
By Gerald M. Berkowitz
New Broadways (Theatre Across America: Approaching a New Millennium). Applause Books. 280 pages. Applause Books #1557832579. Published by Applause Books (HL.314237).
ISBN 1557832579. 6x9.2 inches.
In 1950, the terms "American theatre" and "Broadway" were virtually synonymous. As the new century begins, Broadway is only a small part of a vital, creative, and varied national theatrical scene. This lively and authoritative book combines a history of the many changes – the spread of regional and non-profit theatres, the rise of Off-Broadway and other alternatives, the decline of Broadway – with an analysis of their implications and the problems they have brought, a look at new audiences, the causes of failure, and the unexpected complications of success. Hardcover.

ALBANY, N.Y. - There is a problematic bird in one Albany neighborhood.
Residents in the Buckingham Pond neighborhood of Albany say a terrorizing turkey continues to walk around attacking them and their pets.
Residents say they or their loved ones have been attacked by the wild turkey that apparently lives in the neighborhood. They say the turkey has been causing issues, especially when the bird goes after their dogs, rushing them and trying to peck at them.
The turkey has not been caught at this time and is still walking around.

"Great ride, noticeable adjustability. Front was a little harder to install."
Posted by Mitchell M.
"Installed these in my 2000 Crown Vic. The bags came with O-ring kit. I watched some YouTube videos on how to do this. Pretty straightforward. However, none of the videos were for replacing. The videos were for conversion to ghetto springs. Two things are very difficult - seating the air springs onto the rear axle and getting the solenoid back into the air spring after installation. I gave only 3 stars for quality because I couldn't fit one of the solenoids into the new air springs. One installed fine, the other took about 1 hour of trying. I didn't have the time to remove the spring and make the fit under the car to see what was the problem - my guess is that the tolerances on the plastic housing that receives the solenoid wasn't so great, but couldn't confirm. I was able to get it back together and I was done with it. "

"I just installed this lift and got a full 2" out of it. The front end is now only 1/2" lower than the back end. Looks good!!! The overall cost was a little pricey to get it to Canada though."

Hazell ruled out for six weeks

Hazell's loss will be felt by Gloucester with the likes of Alasdair Strokosch absent at the World Cup © Getty Images
Gloucester have suffered a huge blow ahead of their West Country derby with Bath on Saturday with the news that Andy Hazell has been ruled out for six weeks.
The 33-year-old flanker broke his thumb during their opening round defeat to Northampton but played through the pain barrier against Worcester the following weekend. However, after further medical assessment, it has been established that Hazell will need to have pins inserted into his thumb.
Coach Bryan Redpath was understandably upset with losing his flanker. "Hazell's had surgery, he broke his thumb against Northampton but he thought it was alright," Redpath told BBC Gloucestershire. "He played against Worcester, and obviously it wasn't alright.
"It was flapping about so he's had pins put in it so he's out for six weeks - he had surgery on Monday morning. It's a huge loss for us because he drives everything we rely on.
"He's Mr Gloucester, because he's always been here. Credit it to him playing against Worcester - fair play to him."
In Hazell's place came Matt Cox for their 42-6 drubbing to Harlequins last weekend. And he will hope to line-up alongside the likes of Peter Buxton, Brett Deacon and Gareth Evans in the Cherry and White's back-row against Bath at Kingsholm on Saturday.

Puns may be the lowest form of humor, but eggs can be an excellent source of important nutrients and health-protective substances. And now is the season for thinking about eggs. Eggs play a central role in the observances of both Easter and Passover, and they are ancient symbols for spring and for rebirth.
Many people began avoiding eggs when their high cholesterol content became a health concern. For healthy adults, the American Heart Association recommends a limit of three or four egg yolks a week, provided your daily intake of cholesterol is below 300 milligrams. So you can enjoy eggs in moderation.
Eggs are classified for market according to USDA standards for size and quality. So an egg graded AA is deemed of higher quality than one that gets a B. Most recipes call for large eggs. The color of the egg's shell - white or brown - depends on the breed of hen that laid it. Color has no bearing on taste or nutritive value.
Egg whites are an excellent source of protein and riboflavin. Egg yolks contain all of the egg's fat and are a good source of protein, iron, vitamins A and D, choline and phosphorus.
Eggs must always be refrigerated. When stored at room temperature, they lose more quality in one day than in a week in the refrigerator. Eggs should be kept in the carton in which they came; putting them in the refrigerator's egg container exposes them to odors and damage. Eggs used within a week will have the best flavor and cooking quality. But they can be refrigerated for up to a month, if the shells are intact.
Tomato egg nests with spinach bruschetta are a nice way to celebrate the arrival of spring.

Rihanna Fan Kiss Photos: Is She Just TRYING to Rile Up Chris Brown?by Free Britney at . Comments
Rihanna can be seen cozying up to and kissing a fan on Twitter in a couple of photos that are SURE to eat away at her on/off boyfriend Chris Brown.
The singer snuggled up to a guy named Justin Laboy on Sunday in a series of Twitter images, with the pair affectionately kissing on the cheek:
The photos found their way online after Rihanna's weekend performance in Newark, N.J., and just as the latest rumors of strife with Chris surfaced.
With speculation rife that the duo is currently in one of its "off" phases, these Rihanna pictures are only throwing gasoline on the proverbial fire.
Chris Brown, meanwhile, has been cranking out a series of cryptic tweets, such as "S**t is overrated now a days" and "Just remember to keep ya muthaf****n head up."
Is he feeling a bit down lately? It's hard to say.
In recent days, the embattled star has also:
- Unfollowed her on Instagram after she followed Drake
- Re-followed his other ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran
- Released a new song called "I Can't Win"
So, that about brings you up to date.
It doesn't look good for Chrianna, but we've learned that nearly every time you say that, the PDAs soon follow and the doubters are proven wrong.
What do you think: Will it last?
She's begging for him to beat her again
Maybe cause Chris has a new line of makeup coming out! Yes, MAKEUP!!!! Here's the video:
Wth? Abe, he's a sexy beast of a singer. Secondly, this article-y thing is false cuz chris deleted his instagram acc. like aaaaaagggeeeess ago!
Haha I'm first
who is chris brown anyway?
.....A WET DOG or something?

Toyota has dethroned General Motors as the world's top-selling automaker.
The Japanese company says it sold 9.7 million cars and trucks worldwide last year, although it's still counting. GM says it sold 9.29 million.
GM retook the crown in 2011 when Toyota's factories were slowed by an earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The disaster left Toyota dealers with few cars to sell. The company has since recovered.
GM is also contending with a stronger Volkswagen. It narrowly edged out the fast-growing German company for second place last year. VW says it sold a record 9.1 million vehicles.
GM was the top-selling automaker for more than seven decades before losing the title to Toyota in 2008.

RICHMOND (WRIC) - A new report looks at all of them in Virginia -- and there are some standouts.
Virginia Health Information looked at how many people die from cardiac problems at each one hospital.
VHI hopes everyone uses the report to come up with a heart health plan because you may not have time to decide in the heat of the moment.
Andrea Woie is the picture of health today, but she'll never forget that moment two years ago when, at age 32, she made a second trip to the hospital within a week for unexplained chest and back pain.
"That's when the ER doctor came in and said you're not going to believe it but your blood work is indicating you've had a heart attack," she says. "Usually when people have blockages especially as severe as mine was, you don't make it through it."
VHI Executive Director Michael Lundberg says the new cardiac care report found stories like Woie's are becoming more common.
"We've seen a decline in mortality rates for heart attack over many, many years and Virginia hospitals are really focused on that."
He hopes patients use the information to start a conversation with their doctors and decide where they can get the best care for their individual needs.
There's been progress, but heart disease is still a top killer of men and women in Virginia and being proactive can be lifesaving.
"If you're still not feeling right, something's still not right, no doctor, no healthcare provider is going to turn you away for trying to take care of yourself."
Scores are varied across the commonwealth but taking a look at hospitals in and around Richmond, the news is pretty good.
Out of three possible hearts, Lundberg says most earned two for death and readmissions due to heart conditions. That's average, where they're expected to be.
However, Bon Secours Memorial Regional earned the best possible score of three hearts for low readmissions.
"I know I speak for all of my colleagues at Bon Secours Heart & Vascular Institute that we are honored to be recognized by Virginia Health Information with a perfect of score of three hearts," said Marc R. Katz, M.D., chief medical officer of Bon Secours Heart & Vascular Institute and head of the Minimally Invasive Surgery Program at Bon Secours Richmond Health System. "Achieving the highest standards of excellence in medical outcomes and patient care is what we strive for daily, in all of our facilities, so it is rewarding for Memorial Regional Medical Center to be recognized in this way."
VCU Medical Center earned one heart for a high re-admission rate.
"VCU Medical Center is committed to quality and safety," says Ron Clark, M.D., Chief Medical Officer. "As the region's center for heart transplant, total artificial heart and advanced heart failure, we are committed to caring for patients with advanced, end-stage heart disease at the VCU Pauley Heart Center. We are focused on optimizing the health and improving the health care for the region, including reducing readmissions, by engaging patients, their families, and community partners. While these data are risk adjusted, risk models do not adequately adjust for the sickest patients, such as those at VCU Medical Center."

To the editor,
When my husband and I wanted to find a home 9 years ago, we looked at properties in a number of towns in Fairfield County. We had our hearts set on towns that offered a combination of access to amenities as well as a suburban feel with many parks and open spaces. Trumbull was that town. It offered close proximity to major transportation, stores and restaurants with a system of parks rivaled by few other communities.
It wasn't long after we settled here that there was a proposed 11.6% tax increase under the Baldwin administration with no promise of full-day kindergarten. As the mother of two young boys and an educator this was very concerning. That election year I had my first conversation with Tim Herbst. He and I discussed the need for full-day kindergarten and the need to keep Trumbull affordable for all residents, young and old.
Since taking office in 2009, Herbst has kept tax increases an affordable 1.88% while enacting full-day kindergarten and seeing the high school renovation through. All of this occurred without teacher layoffs or other cuts in programs across the education system. Baldwin had claimed that full-day kindergarten would bring little reward for the investment. As an active member and treasurer of the Frenchtown Elementary School PTA I can tell you that the results from the inaugural class of full-day students have been astounding. Students are reading at levels previously reached by the end of the first grade year and are more prepared for the rigors of the curriculum in the subsequent years - sounds worth the investment to me.
The most recent attack on Herbst has surrounded his failure to foster regional alliances. This is far from true. As the daughter of Newtown's First Selectwoman Pat Llodra, I can assure you there is a strong alliance between Trumbull and its neighbors. Trumbull was one of the first towns to offer manpower and assistance in the Sandy Hook Elementary School relocation while Newtown was quick to provide plow assistance in the blizzard of 2013. Trumbull works closely with its neighbors for the betterment of all.
For all of these reasons I have decided to join the Herbst team as a town council candidate for the 4th district. I want to see the promise of Trumbull continue. Let's keep our town affordable while offering amenities and providing an excellent education system for our children. Please make sure to elect Tim Herbst and his team on November 5, 2013.

Stop Wildlife Crime
Canines and Contraband
Sniffer dogs—with their remarkable sense of smell—are increasingly part of a global effort to intercept illegal wildlife and wildlife products like ivory, rhino horns, sea turtles and pangolins smuggled through airports, shipping ports and public transportation centers.
Thanking Our Heroes
Rangers play a very important role in protecting some of the world's most endangered wild spaces and iconic species like elephants, rhinos and tigers.
Taking a Stand Against Wildlife Crime
The governments of CITES took strong and decisive action in Geneva last week. They laid out timelines and concrete deliverables for countries most complicit in the illegal ivory trade. In particular, they laid down a strict timeline for Thailand to take the necessary steps to rectify the problems that have facilitated its rise to becoming the world's largest unregulated ivory market. Thailand has until March 2015 to deliver, or they face sanctions.
The Urgent Issue of Captive Tigers
Most people are surprised to learn that there are an estimated 5,000 captive tigers in America'. That's more than all wild tigers across Asia. Almost 95 percent are privately owned, often by people not trained to care for animals in general, let alone tigers. Alarmingly, there is no accurate record or system to determine the actual number of tigers in the country, where they are, or what happens after they die.
Wildlife Crime Technology Project
The world is dealing with an unprecedented spike in wildlife crime. In December 2012, Google awarded WWF a $5 million Global Impact Award to create an umprella of technology to protect wildlife.

Microsoft, of course, has been playing this game since, well, pretty much forever. To take one recent example, when you first start running Windows 8 or RT, you're encouraged to set it up with a Microsoft account. It sounds great. "When you sign in with a Microsoft account," Microsoft tells you, "your PC is connected to the cloud, and many of the settings, preferences, and apps associated with your account can 'follow' you between different PCs."
Let's say you do that. What happens when you try to start your Windows 8 laptop somewhere without Internet access? You can't log in. Ain't that a kick in the head? You have to open a local account and then set everything else back to the way you like it.
In all of these developments, I see signs that we're heading to a new era of platform lock-in. Your choices will be Apple, Google, Microsoft and possibly Amazon. Each seeks to lock you in not just with its particular devices and applications, but also with Internet services that either aren't available on other platforms or are very inconvenient to use on other platforms.
Sure, vendor lock-in is nothing new, and I've bemoaned this new trend before, citing completely different developments. But let's not forget that "PC" stands for "personal computer." If a handful of top vendors are allowed to decide what Internet services we can and can't run, the "personal" in personal computing will go away. And we will have lost something important.
Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols has been writing about technology and the business of technology since CP/M-80 was cutting-edge and 300bps was a fast Internet connection -- and we liked it! He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Bring back those girls lol!
I was checking out Lana's blog and I saw this post about a lipstick called "Bouss Ma Tkhash" or "Kiss and Don't worry". Apparently it's a lipstick that our mothers and the older generations know about and that you can use to kiss around without leaving any marks. I asked a couple of friends I know and they laughed and told me it was pretty commonly used back then.
Needless to say, I am not interested in it but I thought the story and the nickname were funny and worth sharing.
Check the whole post [here].

"Set me as a seal upon thine heart."
Song of Solomon 8:6
This article will be divided into two parts. The first part will deal with the prophet Hosea and establish the historical background for his message. The second part will discuss Hosea's message of covenant fidelity to God and God's everlasting mercy to His children.
The prophet
Hosea was active as prophet in the Northern Kingdom of Israel between 752 B.C.1 until the destruction of Israel at the hands of the Assyrians in 721. We do not know as much as we would like about him because very few biographical details are offered in his record. However we can surmise with relative accuracy the years of his prophetic activity, which are based upon the dates of the kings mentioned in the superscription to the book (Hosea 1:1).2 Continue reading
All dates are B.C. but the symbol "B.C." will not be indicated throughout this article. ↩
Based on the writings of Hosea it is clear that he was a prophet in the Northern Kingdom (Israel) as opposed to a prophet in the Southern Kingdom (Judea). What is interesting about the superscription is the mention of four Judean kings but only one king of Israel. We would expect that the superscription would list all of the names of kings of Israel who were Hosea's contemporaries (as we see in superscription to the Book of Amos). Since the focus of the superscription is upon the kings of the Southern Kingdom (Judea) it is believed that this editorial superscription was composed by Judean editors (who were more familiar with Judean kings) some time after the fall of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 721. ↩

With their 75-61 win at home over USD Saturday the Jackrabbits secured the three seed in this weekends Summit League Tournament held here in Sioux Falls. The back-to-back defending champions are excited to defend their title.
The Jackrabbit men enter the Summit League Tournament with a record of 18-11 and 10-4 in League play. Although his team has to deal with more media and more pressure than the other teams making the trip to Sioux Falls, Scott Nagy knows nobody feels sorry for his squad.
"I've said it before that we have distractions that nobody else does down there, because lets face it most of the fans are our fans. I know too that there aren't any coaches crying for me about distractions. They think that we have the home court advantage, we probably do too," SDSU Head Coach Scott Nagy said.
The Jackrabbit faithful have supported their student athletes very well the past five years the tournament has been held in the Arena. Senior Brayden Carlson is hoping for a sea of blue and gold once again.
"It's a great atmosphere, a lot like Frost Arena. There is always five or six thousand people there and it feels like more. I hope everybody makes it down there and Jackrabbit fans fill the place up again. We are really looking forward to playing down there and having the home court advantage," SDSU Senior Guard Brayden Carlson said.
The Jacks may not be entering as the favorite without the likes of Nate Wolters and Tony Fiegen this year. But they do have the crowd and four seniors that know what it takes to go dancing.
"We certainly go into this tournament with confidence because we have kids that know what to expect and what it is going to look like. Those things help and I love the experience we have," Nagy said.
"I've always said and I think we all know to be a champion you have to beat a champion. We know we have that experience and we are ready to go in there with guns blazing giving it everything we have got," SDSU Senior Jordan Dykstra said.
The Jackrabbits will play Western Illinois Sunday in the Arena. Tip off is set for 8:30.

- Despite rough outing, Morton stays grounded
- Lincoln throws three scoreless innings in 'B' game
- Meek getting closer to regaining set-up role
- Worth noting
BRADENTON, Fla. -- Everyone knew it was going to happen eventually, including the player himself, so it was no shock when Starling Marte was in the group sent down in the latest round of cuts in Pirates camp on Sunday morning.
Marte joined fellow outfielder Gorkys Hernandez, right-handers Kyle McPherson and Bryan Morris and lefty Justin Wilson in being optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis. There are now 43 active players in Major League camp, including 13 non-roster players. Among the 43, there are 22 pitchers (seven non-roster), 5 catchers (three non-roster), 11 infielders (two non-roster) and five outfielders (one non-roster).
Marte, the No. 3 rated prospect on the Pirates' Top 20 Prospects list and No. 40 overall among big league prospects, picked up one last base hit in Saturday's game against the Rays, an eighth-inning bunt single. That brought his Grapefruit League average up to .520.
"I wasn't discouraged," said Marte, with the assistance of translator and Bucs third baseman Pedro Alvarez, of the demotion. "I'm happy for the opportunity to show what I can do. I'll keep working until I have a chance."
Overall, Marte went 13-for-25 with three homers.
"Obviously we love the guy and are really excited about his offensive upside," general manager Neal Huntington said of Marte. "He has a chance to come up here and make an impact. He showed when he hits his pitch, he can hit just about anybody."
"[Marte] continued to show a need to refine his strike-zone command. His ability to barrel balls that aren't good pitches will be his biggest challenge in Triple-A.
Marte will split time with Hernandez in both left and center field in his first trip to Triple-A after struggling defensively at times in right this spring.
"Defensively, we were a little surprised," said Huntington. "We've seen a much better defensive outfielder [in the past]. He struggled [defensively this spring], and some of it might have had to do with [playing] right field, but we've got some work to do there [offensively] as far as consistency pitch-to-pitch."
Wilson, McPherson and Morris are all in the Pirates' Top 20 as well. Wilson is at No. 10. The lefty appeared in four Spring Training games, finishing with a 3.18 ERA over 5 2/3 innings. He gave up four hits and walked seven while striking out six. McPherson (No. 11), the Pirates' 2011 Minor League Pitcher of the Year, didn't find much mound time in official Grapefruit League action, tossing just one scoreless inning against the Phillies on March 16. Morris (No. 15) gave up two unearned runs over four one-inning outings, yielding four hits and one walk while striking out two.
Hernandez hit .150 over 12 games, going 3-for-20, though he did go 3-for-3 in stolen-base attempts. None of the optioned players made the trip to Fort Myers, Fla., for either the official game or the "B" game slated for Sunday morning.
Despite rough outing, Morton stays grounded
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Sometimes pitchers have success without their best stuff. And sometimes, like with Charlie Morton on Sunday afternoon, they do what's gotten them here and fail, at least in the box score.
Morton's line reads that he gave up five runs on seven hits in three innings. But while he didn't have pinpoint command, he also wasn't all over the place. Sure, he loaded the bases in the first, but got out of it with a strikeout. He gave up all five runs in the second, an inning that saw three groundouts, three ground ball singles, a fisted flare to right and one decently, albeit not scorched, extra-base hit. It left the right-hander perplexed, to say the least.
"I didn't see any line-drive gap doubles and balls hit off the wall or over the wall," Morton said. "It was just a lot of ground balls in the right spot. It was just kind of weird. It's hard for me to assess that in terms of the lack of success in the statistical analysis.
"It's hard to assess an outing like that, because really, what went wrong was usually what makes things go well for me, which is getting ground balls. I feel like I did what I was trying to do in terms of pitch to contact, getting weak contact. At the same time, I didn't do what I was trying to do, which is get people out and not letting them score runs."
Morton led the National League in ground ball-flyball ratio in 2011, so it's not surprising that four of the nine outs he recorded on Sunday were ground balls. The fact that five more ground balls turned into base hits is an a bit of an occupational hazard for a pitcher like Morton, though Sunday's outing was an extreme lesson.
"Those things do happen," Morton said. "I didn't think the probability was that high that it was going to keep happening. Those things do happen in baseball."
"I felt he's in the spot we anticipated him being in right now," manager Clint Hurdle said. "Second time out, three innings, 51 pitches. On the upside, nine balls were on the ground. On the other upside, 11 of 18 first-pitch strikes. On the other upside, 15 hitters put the ball in play in three pitches or less."
Maybe more important than the result is Morton continued to report no problems with his hip, which was surgically repaired during the offseason. It was his second outing of the spring and good physical reports are only bettered by Morton getting closer and closer mentally to the starter everyone saw on the mound in 2011.
"The hip is fine," Morton said. "It's getting there. I'm learning to let go of the idea that I had surgery and I'm coming back off of surgery and protecting it subconsciously. I'm not out there worrying about my hip. I'm just letting go, letting the ball fly the way I can throw it, just getting up there and competing."
Lincoln throws three scoreless innings in 'B' game
FORT MYERS, Fla. - A group of Pirates hopped on a bus early Sunday morning to play in a "B" game against the Twins, with Brad Lincoln being the star attraction.
It was the first action for the right-hander since March 7, as Lincoln had his last scheduled outing scratched because of tightness in his right calf. On Sunday, Lincoln tossed three scoreless and efficient innings, a much better result than on the 7th, when he gave up four runs on six hits in one inning against the Blue Jays.
"[It was much better] from my last outing," Lincoln said, after completing his work on one of the back fields at the Twins' facility. "My last outing was pretty shaky for me. To be able to bounce back is always a good thing for the confidence level. To just go out there, get my work in, and be ready for the next one [was good]."
Lincoln threw a total of 44 pitches against the Twins and reported no ill effects or lingering concern for the calf that temporarily sidelined him.
"I didn't miss that much. I think it was five days, I missed a rotation, but I feel good," Lincoln said. "I plan on making the next one. It's all better now."
Lincoln was able to effectively use all of his pitches on Sunday morning, commanding them all to his liking.
"Everything was working," Lincoln said. "I was able to attack the zone, get ahead, get strike one and be able to let my defense work for me."
Meek getting closer to regaining set-up role
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- With each appearance this spring, Evan Meek puts an injury-riddled 2011 season behind him and moves a step closer to regaining his coveted eighth-inning role.
The 2010 All-Star tossed a perfect inning in back of starter Charlie Morton on Sunday against the Twins, his third straight scoreless frame after opening the spring by allowing four earned runs on five hits over 1 2/3 laborious innings.
"He's moving it forward," manager Clint Hurdle said. "We're not trying to look for any huge jumps, as long as there's progress being made. He feels good. [Catcher Mike] McKenry liked the movement on the ball to the left-handed hitters. We keep getting him out there and keep helping him build up arm strength."
Meek's velocity has been down from the mid-to-upper 90s he consistently hit during that 2010 season, but no one has been overly concerned about it. He's been heating it up incrementally and Hurdle is comfortable with where he is and where he's headed.
"I think he's in a good place," Hurdle said. "We encourage him to just let it go, not to grunt and snort and slobber to get it going, but just to get out there and give himself a good effort. I think with what he went through last year, I think he's understanding of that. He needs to challenge himself, to find out where the velocity is going to go. We're not looking for 97 tomorrow, but I think it's been firming up."
Worth noting
Outfielder Nate McLouth fouled a pitch off of his foot during his first at-bat in the second inning of Sunday afternoon's game. After he danced around a little, he shook it off and got back in the box, striking out against Francisco Liriano. He returned to center field in the third. But the foot started bothering him, so he was removed from the game as a precaution.

Unbehaun's third wife died while he was behind bars. Following his 2011 release, his sister and her husband bought Unbehaun, a childless widower, a trailer home in rural Rock Hill, S.C., the couple said Wednesday. Bored and alone, Unbehaun spent his days watching television or drawing and painting.
"He was living like a hermit," McLeese said. "The analogy he drew was that it was like living in solitary confinement."
McLeese told the court Thursday the onset of mild dementia may have contributed to his client's decision to rob his way back into prison. And he said the last judge who sentenced him had failed to ensure he had adequate mental health treatment.
Coleman said Unbehaun would also serve three years of closely monitored probation and that mental health services should be readily available to him.
As the hearing ended, Unbehaun requested he been sent to FCI Greenville prison in southern Illinois, walking her through the various benefits of the facility, including good work programs.
Coleman agreed to recommend that prison. She then shook her head.
"It's sad," she said, "to have a defendant who knows the facilities and knows which ones to go to."

Gotta resist the urge to throw a brick at the screen when Barf-key is talking. The idiot. But Jordan is GREAT!! Go RU!
Barchi is an idiot. Dumping Pernetti basically forces Barchi to resign too, since he either blessed the suspension w/o paying attention OR lied about seeing the tape - there's really no other possibility. What an idiot. Protecting Pernetti and letting him land a big fish coach to change the news cycle was their only hope.
Yeah, they'll come back, uh, sure, tomorrow . . . sheesh

The NCAA is moving with almost supernatural speed (for them). It seems like they ARE going to do something to Penn State. I'll still be SHOCKED if they suspend the PSU football team, but if they're not doing something fairly significant this kind of pre-release thing is a little much.
Key facts from article: 1. Even on their own book-keeping Maryland football lost money last year. 2. Budget deficit is projected to more than triple. 3. Assistant football coaches cost UMD more than entire programs. Good, bad, indifferent, the facts, once again, sneak into view.
I'm sure others will have more detailed posts, but here's the first confirmation I've seen . . .

Metal music has historically been heavily influenced by black music. First there was blues music done mainly by black people, then rock developed from blues, and finally metal developed from rock music. Metal has no roots in any of the old Germanic tribes at all. Any metal fan thinking that his music is an Aryan one is simply wrong, and singing German does not make this music traditional white music. Nazis in the third reich called music like blues (as well as jazz) "n***** music" and therefore would also not have liked metal music either.
Apart from the black blues influences of metal music there are lots of other non-Aryan influences in metal. The bass drum used in metal music derived from the bass drum used in jazz, which is originally the Turkish bass drum "davul". Cymbals of any kind have Chinese roots, also with Turkish influences. The same goes for tom toms.
Metal is not the only music that has non-Aryan roots - the same goes for classical European music:
- The oboe derived from the Arabic "mizmar" (or "zurna" in turkish), which later became a shalm and finally the oboe as we know it.
- The lute is nothing other than the Arabic "oud". Not even the shape has changed.
- The guitar is Spanish as well as Mauritanian (that's probably why "Varg Vikernes" once called them "n***** instruments" and therefore stopped playing guitars in "Burzum").
- The violin derived from the Persian instrument "rebab". It is well known that Persians are "Aryans" as well, but anyway they don't belong to the old Germanic tribes.
- The complete percussion section in European orchestra music comes from the Turkish military music of the Ottoman empire called "Janissary" music."

Convergence among EU Regions (1990-2001): Quality of National Institutions and "Objective 1" Status
AbstractThis article focuses on convergence in terms of output per working-age person across regions in the European Union for the period 1990-2001. Controlling for the quality of national institutions, we investigate whether the status of "objective 1" region improves the speed of convergence as compared to what would be expected, given the regions' initial conditions. We find evidence of conditional convergence among EU regions, with the quality of national institutions having a positive impact, but no evidence on a correlation between the eligibility for objective 1 and faster convergence.

The Linux Kernel Is Still On A Power Binge
Published on 18 May 2011 08:32 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Linux Kernel
14 Comments
It's been about three weeks since last mentioning
the major power consumption problem in the Linux kernel
there's more than one power regression
) and it's
affecting distributions like Ubuntu 11.04
. The lack of mentioning the power regression in recent weeks isn't though because the regressions are addressed, they are still outstanding with the about to be released
Linux 2.6.39 kernel
The power regressions just haven't been mentioned recently since I've been out of the office since late last month due to
UDS Budapest
LinuxTag 2011
, and beer drinking with Phoronix readers in Bavaria and around Germany. Now that I'm back to
the usual workload
, I've run some more kernel tests to verify the increased power consumption is still there with the latest upstream kernel. Sadly, the issue is still there.
There's many more realizing as well that they are affected by this bug based upon
the Ubuntu bug report
and user experiences within the Phoronix Forums, Ubuntu Forums, etc.
With the Linux 2.6.39 kernel using the Linus Torvalds tree as of last night (17 May), the issue is still very much present when tested on one of the Lenovo ThinkPad notebooks with an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU.
Earlier this month while I was away there was some speculation that the cause of at least one of these power regressions was due to some SMP / tick-less changes in the recent kernels. In particular,
this LKML thread
from last September was referenced by a user commenting on the Ubuntu bug report. The thought was for SMP (multi-core) systems the load balancing tick was keeping the system up excessively.
Beyond testing the very latest kernel Git to verify its existence, I also ran a test this morning of the kernel in its default SMP kernel configuration and then again when it was booted with the
flag at boot-time (and separately, with
as well just to ensure no differences) so that the dual-core Intel CPU was only being treated as single-threaded.
This didn't help things and the kernel is still on a power binge. Testing continues.
Additionally, if anyone has any recommendations about UPS power systems that have a USB interface and support monitoring the power consumption under Linux via a sysfs node or similar, knowing that would be much appreciated. (Or any UPS vendors willing to send one out to Phoronix would be really great!) This would greatly expedite the testing process due to much faster desktop/server/workstation hardware around here and would allow to see the full scope of hardware affected by this major Linux power problem rather than relying upon notebook battery consumption monitoring.

The Hawke's Bay Museums Foundation Charitable Trust known as the MTG Foundation supports the growth and development of the collections held at MTG Hawke's Bay, one of New Zealand's finest and most extensive museum collections.
The MTG Foundation is an avenue for gifts, donations and bequests intended to develop the collection for the benefit of the people of Hawke's Bay.
For more than 150 years, MTG Hawke's Bay and its predecessors have played their role as the premier cultural institution in the region. A long history of collecting, exhibition and publication has enlivened discussion and fostered intellectual development. Today MTG Hawke's Bay is considered one of New Zealand's leading art galleries and museums.
Those collections, now held in trust for the people of the region by the Hawke's Bay Museums Trust include extensive fine arts, decorative and applied arts, costume and textile collections and significant collections of regional history including key photographs, manuscripts and archives.
The Hawke's Bay Museums Trust collections have been built up over 150 years by the generous donations of benefactors drawn from across the region and the country.
In 1936 Lady Florence McLean's gift of over 850 items of art, Taonga Maori and Pacific items led to the construction of a new gallery in which to house those treasures. In 1976 Mary Bestall consolidated the bequest of her husband and former gallery director Leo Bestall, by making a generous donation of artworks, creating a trust in order that 'paintings and other works of art might be purchased for display in the art gallery.'
In the period since, donors large and small have added to that collection through bequests, donations or gifts of items.
In order to maintain this legacy and to see the collection continue to develop as a key regional asset, your support is needed.
You can become one of a long list of Hawke's Bay people to have contributed to this important regional treasure.
The MTG Hawke's Bay Founding Patrons are a group of visionary individuals who have committed funds of $5,000 each to support the development of the collections held at MTG prior to the opening of the new facility.
Established in early 2013 the Founding Patrons represent contemporary cultural patronage in Hawke's Bay. Founding Patrons receive a number of benefits including input into the purchase of new works and will have exclusive access to MTG events including exhibtion previews. Other Patron opportunities are in development.
To find out about becoming a MTG Foundation Patron or further information about the MTG Foundation please contact Pam Joyce, Marketing Team Leader on 833 9923 or firstname.lastname@example.com
