PLAYBILL.COM'S BRIEF ENCOUNTER With Alan Menken
By Kenneth Jones
The composer of "A Whole New World," "Be Our Guest," "Beauty and the Beast," "Somewhere That's Green" and "Under the Sea" may have two new scores on Broadway next spring. Alan Menken talks about Leap of Faith and Sister Act.
Hard to believe it, given the well-known songs that he has written for stage and screen, but composer Alan Menken has had only one full, new musical-theatre score on Broadway. The show was called King David (with lyrics by Tim Rice), and it was presented as a special nine-performance concert to christen Disney's newly restored New Amsterdam Theatre in 1997. He was also represented on Broadway with a revival of Little Shop of Horrors (an earlier Off-Broadway hit written with lyricist-librettist Howard Ashman) and Disney's Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid (both using Menken-Ashman songs from the animated films that came before, plus new lyrics by Tim Rice and Glenn Slater, respectively). In spring 2011, with the opening of Sister Act the Musical, based on the film comedy, we'll get the first full, new Menken score to be heard in a Broadway theatre in 14 years. (The lyrics are by Slater.) At the moment, Menken and Slater's score to Leap of Faith, the musical, is being tested in previews at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. Rob Ashford directs and choreographs the tale of a con-man preacher whose gospel-revival meetings bewitch a small town. Raúl Esparza and Brook Shields star. There is serious talk that if all goes well in L.A., Leap of Faith might be sharing a Broadway address with Sister Act. A Menken vs. Menken Tony Awards season? Menken doesn't want to get ahead of himself. He spoke by phone from L.A. where he and his collaborators are fine-tuning Leap of Faith toward an Oct. 3 opening.
Nothing like previews, right?
This is the period when you and the creative team decide wholesale cuts and additions to the book and score. You're sort of ruthless during this time, right?
Given all that, and knowing all your success in musical films and theatre, I'm wondering if theatre is still unlike anything else for you. Is it still…magical?
I don't know how Leap of Faith came about for you. Whose idea was it?
[Later], I believe I got a call from the producers, The Frankel Group, about getting involved. Janny and her husband, Michael Manheim, who produced the movie, are friends and they probably mentioned my name, as well.
And the musical world — the gospel-revival aspect — interested you?
What kind of research did you do? Are there recordings of tent meeting revivals?
You're so eclectic in your work.
And you're always, always, always committed to the story. "Story" is one of the great things about your work and with your collaborators, as well.
Are there other musical flavors that go through the Alan Menken filter for Leap of Faith?
The film "Leap of Faith" was set in Kansas. Are we in Kansas still?
AM: No. In fact, I was very deliberate when I did Sister Act. First of all, I had started Leap of Faith first; I wasn't going to [go into a gospel style] because it was just too close [to Leap of Faith]. I also didn't want to write [Sister Act] in a Motown style, because, frankly, I had already done that with Little Shop of Horrors. I had always wanted to write a disco musical. I had always wanted to write a musical that pulled on all those fabulous styles from the '70s. And I thought this was a perfect opportunity for it, and Glenn and I embraced that opportunity. Peter Schneider, who of course brought the project to me and developed it and directed it, was entirely in support of that, as well.
We don't want competing Alan Menken scores in the same Broadway season, do we? Sister Act is coming to Broadway in 2011, and Leap of Faith, if it works out well in the L.A. tryout, would seem to be on track, too.
Leap of Faith did come first?
Can you give me a sense of what makes you and Glenn such a great team? What's great about Glenn Slater?
Every musical theatre writer has a file, a drawer full of ideas and press clippings and obituaries, or whatever, for source material for a possible musical. Do you guys have a wish list of stuff you want to do that nobody knows about?

This is probably the easiest way, but it also doesn't look as nice and is nowhere near as detailed as a hand-applied design. Last time we discussed making your own henna cones, which leads to applying the paste by hand. Here, we will explore ways to create henna patterns and where you can find free patterns for download. Creating your own henna pattern is really very simple as long as you have an imagination. It doesn't require a lot of artistic skills, just creativity. Most traditional henna patterns are based on very simple shapes - circles, triangles and lines are the most basic. These shapes can be combined to create a very intricate pattern and a very beautiful henna design.
In Western civilization, where henna is used purely as an artform and not a ritual, there are no guidelines. There are no meanings behind the shapes or patterns and there are no "rules" as to what you can or cannot do. Just have fun! I usually like to choose one shape to be the "dominant" in a theme and expand on it from there. To the right is an example of a quick sketch I did using a heart as the basic theme. As you can see, it is a very simple pattern, but also very detailed. This design can be done on the outside or the palm of the hand, or it could even be used in part anywhere else on the body. The idea is to get it clear in your mind how you want it to look, and the best way to do this is to get it on paper first. Henna stains very quickly, and it's very difficult to "erase" mistakes.
Once you get your design on paper, you have two options. You can do the design freehand and use your drawing as a guide for comparison, or you can trace the design using a sheet of carbon paper and transfer the pattern to the skin. This can cause difficulty, though, because unless you created the pattern specifically for the person you are going to henna, the pattern may not "fit" properly, causing you undue frustration.
Again, keep in mind that this is just a guide and you can always deviate from the original, if necessary, to tailor it to your customer. It's the freedom that goes along with henna art that makes it so enjoyable and so diverse from one artist to the next. Find your own style and you'll be creating your own patterns like a pro in no time!
If you're just not comfortable drawing your own designs, you're not ready or just need a little inspiration, you can download these free sample patterns to get you started. Have fun!

JA - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
The statistical use of a particular classic form of a connectionist system, the multilayer perceptron (MLP), is described in the context of the recognition of continuous speech. A discriminant hidden Markov model (HMM) is defined, and it is shown how a particular MLP with contextual and extra feedback input units can be considered as a general form of such a Markov model. A link between these discriminant HMMs, trained along the Viterbi algorithm, and any other approach based on least mean square minimization of an error function (LMSE) is established. It is shown theoretically and experimentally that the outputs of the MLP (when trained along the LMSE or the entropy criterion) approximate the probability distribution over output classes conditioned on the input, i.e. the maximum a posteriori probabilities. Results of a series of speech recognition experiments are reported. The possibility of embedding MLP into HMM is described. Relations with other recurrent networks are also explained.

from the The Art of VFX article:
What is your background?
Ollie Rankin (OR): Im from New Zealand, where I studied computer science and specifically artificial intelligence, a background which got me my break working on the team that developed the Massive crowd pipeline at Weta for THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Since then Ive worked in California, Tokyo, and the UK before joining Method Studios in Vancouver three years ago as a CG Supervisor on INVICTUS, which was our most recent collaboration with Clint Eastwood and Michael Owens.
Geoffrey Hancock (GH): I began working in Vancouver in 1994 doing architectural visualizations and commercial work. Subsequent years of fast paced television series work and smaller films requiring a wide range of effects has given me a solid background for todays more specialized effects required by larger feature films.
How was the collaboration with director Clint Eastwood and Production VFX Supervisor Michael Owens?
OR: Once again it was a great pleasure working with these two. Clint pretty much entrusts the entire responsibility for his films vfx to Michael, so we know that when we have completed a shot to Michaels liking, it will almost always be blessed by Clint. This is the only director/vfx supervisor pairing I have ever worked with where such trust exists.
GH: On the three films (CHANGELING, INVICTUS, J. EDGAR) that Ive had the pleasure to work with the Malpaso Production crew, Ive been struck by the professionalism and dedication they exhibit both on set and through post production. We primarily deal with Michael Owens on a day-to-day basis, both remotely from his home and in the studio when he comes to Vancouver. Through the early part of post we are often in close contact with their editorial team, as sequences often evolve once the visual effects shots come together and options for expanding the story are discovered. One of the cornerstones of our work together is the trust between all parties involved and the excitement of working on great stories.

We were in Bologna this October, our first visit to Bologna, and I can't envision staying anywhere else. The B&B is quite spacious, beautifully appointed with contemporary furnishings, your own livingroom, and a walk-in closet you could get lost in. Antonio and Katia were great hosts, the breakfasts wonderful; Katia loves to bake, and it's always something different. All that, and we were a short stroll away from either the university area or the historic city-center. Whether your stay in Bologna is a night or a week, molineventidue B&B is the place to stay. Thank you for an exceptional Bologna weekend ..... Jane and Paul
5 sur février 16, 2013
So I've given this B&B full marks in every category - a bit over the top some might think. But I can't fault them for anything. The B&B is run by the most delightful couple, Antonio and Katia, who constantly go out of their way to make you feel welcome and provide you with everything you need whilst at the same time letting you get on with it and explore all that Bologna has to offer. The apartment is in the student area of Bologna - so close to all the action on a Friday/Saturday night but is equally secluded and peaceful - tucked away behind two huge wooden doors and at the end of a courtyard. The furnishings are modern and uber stylish, as you'd expect with Italian design, but I love the contrast of living in the old part of the city in maximum comfort. Every morning Katia makes the most incredible breakfast - with freshly squeezed juice, maybe a homemade cake, and of course - excellent coffee! You even have your own living room so that you can chill in your own space when you have exhausted yourself walking around Bologna's historic centre. I honestly could not recommend this place enough - it is the perfect base for a weekend break in Bologna.

We stayed at Molineventidue for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment is located in the city centre, within easy walking distance of Bologna's main railway station and most key attractions, yet is remarkably quiet. It is modern and spacious, and combines the benefits of a traditional B&B with the utility and convenience of a self-contained living space. Our hosts, Antonio and Katia, provided generous support and advice. We particularly appreciated their suggestions on restaurants and places to visit. We would happily recommend Molineventidue as a base for anyone wanting to explore Bologna or the surrounding region. Michael & Wendy, Australia

It was Our first visit to Bologna, and staying at Moliventidue B&B was the best choice. Good location near the city center. Fantastic and helpful hosts. Beautiful, boutique style interiors and good breakfasts, with homemade cake, even on Saturday at 7 am when we had to leave. Best wishes. Maciek, Kate and Iwo.

We've just been visiting bologna and we have a realy good time in Mulino 22. The room was great, so the bathroom and every thing was just as good as we could think of. Antonio and katia were lovely host. We have dinner at Serghiey and we taste the best food in town (or that seem to us) Reaaly great.

Antonio and Katia were the perfect hosts, helping us with restaurant and gelateria recommendations and things to do in the lovely, lively city of Bologna. Their flat is extremely well located for easy access to the city center and the RR station on a quiet street. They dedicate the first floor bedroom, living room and bath to guests ... all in appealing, modern decor and in spotless condition. They are both charming people with wide travel experiences themselves ... and were kind enough to invite us for a glass of wine on their rooftop terrace during our four-day stay. A gem of a place for discerning travelers who appreciate quality and refinement ... and a lovely couple! September 2012

Molineventidue is a delightful place to stay. The accommodation is extremely chic and stylish, with all the comforts you would expect in a luxury hotel, but much more personal. It is extremely spacious and represents excellent value for money. Location the heart of town was great too. The owners are charming. We loved it!

My husband and me stayed three nights in Bologna at Antonio and Katia. They were very kind and pleasant hosts. The rooms are tasteful furnished and very comfortable. We slept very well. In the morning we got a rich and healthy breakfast. The bed and breakfast is in the heart of old Bologna - you can reach everything by foot. For us everything was perfect and we highly recommend Molineventidue b&b! Next time we will be in Bologna, we will stay again at Antonio and Katia.
5 sur septembre 08, 2012
We have visited Bologna off and on for the past 25 years. This is the best place we have every stayed. Molineventidue is close to several of the best restaurants in the city and centrally located. Do not be afraid when you approach the front door. Bologna is university city and an ancient town. The buildings are hundreds of years old and many are covered in graffiti. Beyond the secure front door is a court yard leading to another door. Upstairs you will find an extremely clean and quiet sanctuary. The hosts are very friendly. Katia leaves early in the morning but you will find her breakfast treats on the table in the kitchen and more than enough to eat continental style. The rooms are large and spacious, very well lit, modern and airy. There is a small balcony on which to sit and pass time. If you feel like staying in there is a library filled with books about photography, travel, art and philosophy; but why would you do that when there is so much art and architecture to see outside on the streets in 3D? The location is perfect for exploring the old city. Molineventidue will always be our first choice when returning to Bologna.

Molineventiue B&B is the best accomodation in Bologna I ever had. The apparatment is very spacious, furnished in a modern but warm style and very clean.. Although situated in the city centre, it is very quiet. The hosts Katia en Antonio help you with everything you need and prepare a delicous breakfast with selfmade bread. High quality standard and friendly hosts - what else can you wish?

Efectos de variaciones en el tipo de cambio sobre el nivel general de precios: México 1980-2011
AbstractThe present paper estimate for Mexico coefficient pass-through of the type change on the general level of prices for three periods: 1980q1-1990q4; 1991q1-2000q4 and 2001q1-2011q4. From an empirical analysis, we quantify the evolution of the coefficient of short and long term as well as its process of adjustment over time. We find a drop in the coefficient of pass-through after the decade of the 1980s. However, the results do not suggest that the decline observed in the coefficient may be considered as permanent. If the level of the inflation rate and its persistence rise in the future, we will observe an increase in the value of the coefficient of pass-through, which in turn would give new impetus to inflationary pressures. These results lead us to conclude that the Bank of Mexico has control on the nominal exchange rate but not on the real exchange rate.

Mapping the Heatwave
While America braces itself for record low temperatures Australians are basking in a heatwave. ABC has created a Live Heatwave Tracker to map temperatures that have hit as high as 50 degrees centigrade.
The tracker is an animated map of temperatures recorded throughout Australia. You can use the slider beneath the map to view temperatures at specific times and dates and zoom in on the map to view temperatures recorded at specific locations across the country.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into Philadelphia.....
The Philadelphia Flyers announced today that they have acquired 5-10,190-pound right wing Kris Versteeg from the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for a first-round and a third-round pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, according to general manager Paul Holmgren.
Read the full release:
All Philly had to give up for a guy who helped Chicago to the Cup last year was a 1st and 3rd round pick? Wow.
Give Holmgren credit - this will make the Flyers an even tougher out in the playoffs this year, if they stay healthy and get reasonable goaltending.
This move makes it all the more interesting to see what Glen Sather will do - not that Versteeg would have been a fit with the Rangers - but the forward depth that Philly has is pretty remarkable.

In doing research I found a couple names that primarily pop up as guys the vikings "will" take in the first round next year. They are almost always projected to be a WR but most "experts" don't agree which WR it will be. I know many things will change after the combine BUT I want to know my fellow Norsemen's take because I do not follow college ball. I tell you what I don't want, I don't want some tall guy that can't run from defenses or some speedy guy that can't catch too well. We have Michael Jenkins who is a great tall guy that can't out run Ed Hochuli getting to the endzone and we had Troy Williams and we all know how that went. So, again I am curious to what people think of these listed guys and add other names if you want, again I am kind of ignorant to this on a yearly basis until we get close to draft time then I go into research mode!

Tissue repair and cancer
Skin cancer is a major public health issue in Australia, with the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer costing our community more than $264 million each year. Moreover, brain tumours remain the most common cause of cancer related death in children and of these, medulloblastoma is the most commonly diagnosed.
Our laboratory has made great progress in understanding the genetic pathways behind the most common form of skin cancer in Australia, Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), and medulloblastoma, a type of brain tumour that occurs predominantly in children.
Having mapped and isolated the Naevoid Basel Cell Carcinoma Syndrome (NBCCS) gene called Patched, which is the driver for a medical condition where affected individuals have a predisposition for developing BCC and medulloblastoma, we were able to identify the Patched gene as a controller of a molecular signalling pathway called the Hedgehog pathway.
The Hedgehog pathway is a set of genetic mutations that contribute to the development of a wide range of tumour types, including lung, pancreatic and ovarian cancer. By examining this pathway and how it interacts with other genetic pathways, our scientists have gained a better understanding of the normal development of the skin and cerebellum, a part of the brain that controls motor functions.
By manipulating the strength of the Hedgehog pathway we believe stem cell populations can be expanded or can be induced to become cancerous.
During the past 12 months, we examined the Hedgehog pathway and how it interacts with other genetic pathways to gain a better understanding of the normal development of the skin and cerebellum and the tumours derived from those organs. We also began to use small molecule drugs to examine novel treatments for both medulloblastoma and BCCs of the skin. Translating our research findings in both tumour types will have a significant impact on improving the health of all Australians affected by these diseases.
Next steps
Next steps for our skin cancer research include proving that the cells generated by manipulating the Hedgehog genetic pathway are true stem cells and can repair and regenerate skin after insults such as wounds or burns. By better understanding the relationship between stem cells and skin cancer we will be better positioned to prevent and treat this disease and the findings will likely also provide a paradigm for other cancer types.
Next steps for our medulloblastoma research include proving that we can block tumour growth by manipulating a number of genetic pathways we have linked to the Hedgehog signalling pathway. We hope this will open up a wider range of therapeutic approaches than those currently available for children affected by this disease.

It's going to take a good deal of time and energy, but a young man from Great Falls, Va., says his mission to map and then end the scourge of cyber-bullying hits close to home.
Viraj Puri is a tech-savvy 13-year-old eighth grader hoping to use the internet to help save lives.
"I think it's really heartbreaking to see that just by some Facebook post or some Twitter tweet that's hurting someone's feelings, you know, they can even take their own life and they're still so young," Puri tells us.
His compassion is born of an older brother's torment when bullied at school several years ago.
"And that really affected him and me because I'm really close to my brother," he says. "So this experience made me want to do something so that no child or teen or anybody has to ever go through that again. So that's how I really came up with the idea of Bullyvention."
Bullyvention is what he calls his anti-bullying blog.
"He saw his brother going through a lot of pain," says Viraj's mother, Aparna Puri. "It did affect us completely as a family."
She recalls feeling helpless.
"Bullying is not like a wound where you can put a Band-Aid and it will go away," she says.
Viraj's attempt at healing comes in the form of a "heatmap" that will show where cases of bullying have been reported or made news.
"I want teens to know or parents to know that where bullying would occur the most and where it occurs less all across the nation," he says.
Puri has met with members of Congress, including some in the Anti-Bullying Caucus, to try to strengthen the law.
"His anger towards the kids who were bullying his brother was negative," Mrs. Puri says. "Anger is always negative. But to make something out of it … I think it's brilliant."
If you suspect somebody you love is being bullied in person or online, the experts say don't ignore it. Don't think kids can work it out without help from adults.

LAPEL — Like many boys basketball teams in the coverage area, Lapel is undergoing something of a makeover this season.
None of the others, however, have a head coach with more than 500 career victories.
The losses of Tanner Watkins and Drew Norton following a 12-10 season will present challenges for the Bulldogs. But Jimmie Howell — who has 507 wins in 33 years overall and 145 wins including a Class 2A state championship in 10 years at Lapel — has seen it all before.
"There's a lot of playing time up for grabs with a lot of schools (in the county)," Howell said. "You try to get your program up to a point where you really don't have many years where you have seven or eight seniors on your team. Each year, you've got a little bit (of experience) coming back."
To that end, Howell returns three starters this season in seniors Mitchell Richardson and Bailey Partington and junior Brady Cherry. Senior Josh Erwin would have been the fourth, but he underwent surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament Thursday morning and will miss the season.
Richardson emerged last season as a sharp-shooter and brought his game to another level over the summer.
"He's able to put the ball on the floor and go to the basket a lot more than he did last year," Howell said.
Cherry is an outstanding all-around athlete who will be asked to fill many roles this season. Watkins was the team's primary ballhandler, and Norton was the primary scorer in the post.
Cherry, who carries 205 pounds on his 6-foot-3 frame, will be part of the solution at both positions.
"He's going to play a little bit of everywhere for us," Howell said of the baseball star who also served as the football team's quarterback this fall. "He's very versatile and can play about every position on the floor."

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) -- A small group of faith-based leaders gathered outside the Capitol Saturday to protest Right to Work legislation.
They tell 6 News they'll be back Tuesday, when the legislature meets, with members of their congregations to send lawmakers a message. They say making Michigan a Right to Work state is bad for their communities and the economy.
Rev. Maurice Rudds, a Baptist out of Detroit says, "It's terrible and it shows the state is completely out of touch with its citizens."
Although the protesters were quiet and peaceful today, the Michigan State Police presence could be felt throughout the Capitol. At least seven police cars were stationed around the building.
MSP Inspector Gene Adamczyk says police are aware of the protests planned Tuesday by union members and others against Right to Work. It's expected to be larger than Thursday's protest where thousands showed up to make their voices heard.
Police are planning for the large crowds and say they will do what they're trained to do to keep everyone safe.
Right to Work legislation would give employees the option to not pay union fees.

Fraser River Valley Lions Club
PO Box 248
Winter Park, CO 80482-0248
Dear Lions,
We have a new opportunity to earn money for the club that does NOT require VOLUNTEER HOURS from you OR your MONEY!
Some things are too good to be true.
Both Safeway and City market have charitable programs available for non-profits that could provide a nice revenue stream for us. The two programs work a little differently from one another but the concept is basically the same: As a member or supporter of the Lions, you sign up to have a percentage, (up to 5%) of the dollars you spend on groceries credited to FRVLC. There are minimums that we collectively need to reach, but the targets are fairly reasonable. The mechanics of the two programs vary, as do the calculations on what we would earn, but both would be very easy for you to manage at the check out counters.
For Safeway, the FRVLC would sell you a $10.00 card, good for $10.00 worth of groceries, which you could then reload with whatever value you want to put on the card to use for purchasing groceries. You can pay for the value you reload with your own credit card and keep the benefits of points, cash back, etc. that your personal credit card offers. When we collectively hit $5,000.00 or more, FRVLC is then paid 5% of our collective purchases. For the Lions to get credit for your purchases, you do need to load the Safeway card in a separate transaction, prior to purchasing any items. It will not work to just punch in your phone number. Also note, you maintain the benefit of all Safeway promotions, discounts and fuel programs that you would otherwise.
For City Market, all we need to do is associate your existing City Market Card with the FRVLC….or sign you up for one if you do not have one already. After that, when you swipe your card, a percentage of your purchases go to the Lions. As a club, we need to make application to participate and must be accepted. City Market caps the number of participants as well as the dollars donated. This is not the case with Safeway.
Our hope is that all of you will sign up for both programs and both members of the household will carry the cards to assure all purchases will be credited to the Lion's account.
To get started most effectively, we need you to let us know the following:
Name: Email: Phone:
1. I would like to participate in the
( ) Safeway Program
( ) City Market Program
2. ( ) I am already participating in the City Market Program for another non-profit.
( ) I am already purchasing Safeway grocery cards for another non-profit.
Note: Safeway will allow you to support more than one organization.
3. ( ) I would be willing to sign up other members in the community to be participants in one or both of these programs for the Lions.
Please email your completed forms to: firstname.lastname@example.com
OR, send it via good old fashioned US Mail to :
Deb Buhayar
PO Box 190
Fraser, CO 80442-0190
Thanks for your help.

In one child's hand, a tiny tambourine jangles along to a song while another child claps to the rhythm. It's not an uncommon sight at any of MusicalMe's educational classes, where kids up to age 6 express themselves through music. And parents are encouraged to stay and have fun, whether by helping littler participants along or by ripping a mean solo during a kazoo jam session. With classes holding up to 14 students, each child gets a significant amount of attention and guidance as they learn to appreciate melody and rhythm and learn to love making music.
As a member of the world-wide Ananda yoga community, Ananda Yoga Scotts Valley holds classes with specific focuses. These include yoga postures, chair and restorative yoga, meditation instruction, and classes in yoga philosophy and practice.
Though they draw from diverse backgrounds in teaching, professional dance performance, and movement studies, the instructors at Agape Dance Academy specialize in classical ballet, following the curriculum and techniques of the Royal Academy of Dance. They also offer courses in contemporary dance. In classes suited for preschoolers and adolescents, they pass on the basics and advanced movements of that centuries-old performance art. And yet their teaching style isn't strictly traditional—instructors work with and encourage each student one on one, promoting emotional as well as physical growth as sessions progress.
At Roudon-Smith Winery, winemakers surrounded by unique murals create barrels of rich reds and refreshing white wines using high-quality grapes from the Santa Cruz Mountains and other regions of California. Whether crafting an elegant pinot noir or a richly colored zinfandel, the winemakers follow a philosophy of minimal intervention, seeking to preserve the essential qualities of the fruit.
Drawn2Art strives to teach children the skills to draw, paint, and create three-dimensional art realistically. Whether drawing, painting, or sculpting, kids learn Drawn2Art's visualization techniques that allow them to break down subjects into simpler, easier-to-create pieces. This results in a gallery of impressive student artwork that ranges from silhouettes and fruit to household pets, flowers, and seaside landscapes.

A Rockford man was sentenced to 85 months in federal prison Monday for robbing the BMO Harris Bank in the 1200 block of Bennington Road in July 2010.
In addition to his 85 month sentence, 33-year-old Drew Yancy will have to serve three years of supervised release and pay $5,905 in restitution to the bank. He will not be eligible for parole.
The plea agreement states Yancy was driven to the bank by 27-year-old Prince Williams of Rockford in a stolen car on July 22, 2010. Both men then entered the bank, Williams stood by the front door, and Yancy went up to the tellers and demanded cash. In the plea agreement, Yancy admits to telling a teller he would shoot and kill her if she did not give him any money.
The two men got $5,905 from the tellers and then fled in the car. Williams pled guilty to his involvement in the robbery in April 2012 and will be sentenced at a later date.
Yancy pled guilty in April 2013.

Polish Translation Services
Language History:
Polish is one of the Indo-European languages. It is from the West Slavonic group which also includes Czech and Slovak. In the early Middle Ages proto Slavonic tribes moved away from their ancestral lands and settled throughout central, southern and eastern Europe. This expansion diversified the language of the tribes but, even to this day Poles, Slovaks and Czechs can communicate with each other without using an interpreter.
The continued development of the Polish language was closely tied to the early beginnings of the Polish state during the 10th Century. Diverse but linguistically similar tribes in the Orda and Vistula river basins were united by Mieszko I, who also went on to be baptized in 966. The introduction of the church also heralded the arrival of Latin, which at the time was the Lingua Franca of Europe. The introduction of Latin and the subsequent adoption of the Latin alphabet, made writing Polish, which had till that point only been a spoken language, possible. Early manuscripts were the province of the clergy but, Slavonic names and insertions were occasionally used. The earliest surviving example of this kind of text was written in 990-992, and it's known as the Dagome judex, in which Mieszko I subordinated his newly formed Polish state to the Pope, and described his lands and the new cities Cracow and Gniezno.

La Cava Jumps Men's Tennis Net for NWC's Weekly Award
News Release Date:
Thursday, February 23, 2012
WALLA WALLA, Wash. -- Whitman College sophomore Andrew La Cava is this spring's first Northwest Conference Student Athlete of the Week for men's tennis.
La Cava, who holds a No. 7 singles ranking at the national level (NCAA DIII), helped the Whitman men give new meaning to the term "road warriors" last weekend as they traveled to Fredericksburg, Va., and swept three decisions in two days from nationally prominent tennis programs.
|Andrew La Cava
Whitman, ranked No. 29 nationally in the preseason, capped its big weekend with a 6-3 Sunday triumph over No. 22 University of Mary Washington.
La Cava helped Whitman grab the early lead in that match by teaming with junior Jeff Tolman for an 8-5 victory in No. 2 doubles.
As matches in singles started to finish, Whitman was in front 4-3 when La Cava, scored the clinching fifth team point with a 6-4, 7-5 victory in the No. 1 slot. His opponent, Sam Wichlin, held a 5-4 lead in the second set and had a set point, but La Cava bounced back to win three games and polish off his victory.
"Andrew and his opponent had a fantastic match," Whitman coach Jeff Northam said. "Both played amazing tennis."
Wichlin, a junior at Mary Washington, was "absolutely pounding the ball, especially his forehand, forcing Andrew to scramble all over the court and wait for his opportunity to go on the offensive," Northam said.
"Andrew is an amazing athlete and incredibly quick around the court, but I think he surprised even himself in this match with his movement and anticipation."
Whitman played twice on Saturday, edging Kalamazoo 5-4 after beating No. 23 Rhodes by a 6-3 count.
La Cava also had two wins against Kalamazoo, which isn't ranked at the moment but recently lost a 5-4 decision to No. 11 Chicago. After teaming with Tolman for an 8-5 victory at No. 2 doubles, La Cava posted a 7-5, 6-0 victory at No. 1 singles.
Whitman slipped into an early hole against Rhodes by two losing two of three matches in doubles. Tolman and La Cava at No. 2 were the lone winners.
Whitman turned the tables in singles, winning five of six matches in singles. The only loss came at No. 1, where La Cava dropped a 2-6, 6-4, 7-5 decision to Morgan Slevin.
La Cava and his teammates return to Northwest Conference action this weekend, hosting Pacific Lutheran at 4 p.m. Friday and Puget Sound at 1 p.m. Saturday.

Are you not yet feeling absolutely pulverized by the endless onslaught of "X-Men: First Class" marketing? Has the breathless praise thrown at the film by the early non-review reviews by the target audience for the movie already made you wary? Well, too bad because you're going to keep hearing about 'First Class' until you're found lying curled in a fetal position begging for mercy.
An absolutely terrible tie-in television advertisement for Farmers Insurance that for some reason has J.K. Simmons in it has surfaced. Surely you don't need the money that badly J.K. do you? Anyway, there's Beast shoehorned into a commercial that flails about making a connection between mutants and insurance in a terrible attempt at comedy. Lordy, what next? A Tide commercial with Emma Frost telling us how she keeps her whites so clean?
"X-Men: First Class" opens on June 3rd but the endless marketing has told you that already. Watch the spot below. [SuperHeroHype]
Tom | May 24, 2011 7:26 AM
This writer is an idiot. JK Simmons is the spokesman for Farmers, not just this ad and the ad is GREAT. I love it, I'm sure a lot of people will love it and you waste 5 minutes of my time on your useless crap
sweetypie | May 24, 2011 2:51 AM
So I guess you missed all of the Thor promo we were bombarded with. What an odd complaint. Do you just not like X Men? It's a big time release getting ready to open. You should be used to this type of marketing unless you have a serious bias.
cirkusfolk | May 24, 2011 1:49 AM
Not to continue with the hate on this thread campaign, but you write, "For some reason has JK Simmons in it." You must not watch much TV as JK Simmons has been Farmers spokesperson for at least a year now and has been in at least 10 different commercials for them.

padre | May 23, 2011 12:02 PM
I never intended to see this movie, so the ads don't bother me. The design of this blue snarf and the blue girl are laugh out loud funny though.
Lucy | May 23, 2011 11:32 AM
This whole thing makes me laugh. What blockbuster summer film isnt dealt with endless marketing? Hello its what they always do. I seriously only hear about XMen First Class from the Playlist and everytime someone writes a review complaining over the neverending marketing its like calm down its what they always do. Ignore and go on.
I am going to go see the film anyway. I hope it doesnt suck.
Ian | May 23, 2011 10:50 AM
I haven't seen a single ad or tie in for this movie other than the trailers. Guess I'm lucky. Still, is this much worse than the bombardment of ads for Thor and Iron Man 2?
Landry | May 23, 2011 8:15 AM
Real fans don't mind it
John | May 23, 2011 8:00 AM
Sorry to disagree with you but this is definitely the best integration I've seen. Not your typical commercial that has 15 seconds of movie footage and then 15 seconds of the company showing off its product . Looks like these guys actually have some creativity. Fuuunnnyyy.
Jacque DeMolay | May 23, 2011 7:49 AM
Man, this makes me wish JK Simmons was going to be in First Class. I love that guy in anything. Ooh, maybe he can take over as bald, hoverchair Professor X instead of Picard. That'd be sweet.
tristan eldritch | May 23, 2011 7:46 AM
Man, I really want this movie to rock, but every time I see that shot of Beast in the cockpit, I can't believe it's from a Hollywood blockbuster. It looks like they flat-out ran out of money, and had to go to a novelty store and a paint shop for the Beast make-up.
BuntyHoven | May 23, 2011 7:42 AM
Yeah, you can always ignore these daily X-Men updates.
Nik | May 23, 2011 7:34 AM
complaining about amounts of X-Men: First Class by giving X-Men: First Class press. Odd.

Andover High students could soon need to take an alcohol breath test to attend school events such as dances, graduation and the prom.
The high school's School Council is calling for a test run of mandatory breathalyzer testing. Andover High School Principal Chris Lord is slated to present the proposal to the School Committee tonight, Thursday. The proposal would restrict attendance at the first school event in 2013 to those who agree to take a breathalyzer test prior to admission.
Lord declined to comment on the proposal until it is presented to the School Committee. Lyn Dwyer, co-president of the AHS Parent Advisory Committee, declined to comment on the proposal when reached by phone.
Brian Wivell, student liaison to the School Committee and a student member of the School Council, said the proposal reached consensus support from the council. The council is made up of Lord, three students, three parents, two teachers, another member of the high school faculty and a community member.
The proposal "will eliminate a certain population of the school from going to the dances," Wivell said, "but it might also open up these dances to a different crowd of people that might have been intimidated or afraid to go."
In a memo to the superintendent, Lord said the school "is strongly committed to providing an alcohol- and drug-free school environment for all students, faculty, and staff. This has been a challenge since in previous years, large numbers of alcohol abuse cases have occurred at dances."
In the 2010-11 school year, students lost 93 days of school because of alcohol use, according to Lord. That number jumped to 127 for the 2011-12 school year, a 36 percent increase.
In the proposed plan, "all students attending the dance/school event will be given a breathalyzer test which requires the students to lightly blow in the direction of the device from a distance of 4-6 inches," Lord wrote.

College gets go-ahead for new classrooms
12:00pm Thursday 15th November 2012 in News
PLANS to tear down old buildings at St Clare's College in Summertown to build a six-classroom block have been given the go-ahead.
The work will see a biology laboratory, prep room, lean-to workshop and store, sheds and two greenhouses demolished.
The buildings will be replaced with the six classroom block – which will include science and preparation rooms – a workshop and store.
St Clare's principal Paula Holloway said: "The buildings were constructed at a time when the college was constrained by resources and they do not meet the needs of the 21st century.
"The new buildings will improve the overall appearance of the area and provide modern, purpose-built facilities for the students."
She said the Banbury Road college had consulted with neighbours and none had objected.
Oxford City Council's west area planning committee agreed the Banbury Road scheme. Councillor Van Coulter said: "My impression was this proposal will fit within the area and provide a fit-for-purpose educational establishment."

Quotes with massive
Quotes 1 till 7 of 7.
It could be that our faithlessness is a cowering cowardice born of our very smallness, a massive failure of imagination. If we were to judge nature by common sense or likelihood, we wouldn't believe the world existed.
Our capacity to retaliate must be, and is, massive in order to deter all forms of aggression.
- Kahlil Gibran
Libian painter and writer 1883-1931
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
Revolutions are notorious for allowing even non-participants - even women! - new scope for telling the truth since they are themselves such massive moments of truth, moments of such massive participation.
- Michel Eyquem De Montaigne
French essayist and philosopher 1533-1592
It is the part of cowardliness, and not of virtue, to seek to squat itself in some hollow lurking hole, or to hide herself under some massive tomb, thereby to shun the strokes of fortune.
The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
The best revenge is massive success.

"What's in it for me?"
We don't blame you for asking this question, because, let's be honest, we're not running a charity organization here. So what exactly does a writer writing on our site stand to gain? In true sports-fan fashion, we'll give our answer to that question in a detailed, analytical manner. Would you have it any other way?
The advantages of writing for Sportskeeda:
1. You have a place to speak your mind
When you watched Dhoni lift the 2011 World Cup, did you feel like penning an emotional, heartfelt eulogy to the Men in Blue? When Brazil lost 7-1 to Germany, did you feel like launching a scathing verbal tirade on the seleção? At Sportskeeda you can do all that and more. You can speak your mind to your heart's content, and no one can stop you.
Put your feelings into words. We'll make sure the world hears them.
2. You get exposure to an enormous audience
All aspiring writers crave for an attentive set of eyes to read their wonderfully written articles. At Sportskeeda, you will get millions of attentive eyes. Yes, you read that right. We get nearly 15 million visitors every month, so you'll never be short of an audience. By writing here you can reach out to an incredibly large reader base, and that's a good thing whichever way you look at it.
3. You get published on 'Yahoo!' and other content partners
Sportskeeda has relationships with several global print and online media houses (such as Yahoo!, Playup, etc.) which re-publish the site's best articles on their platforms with appropriate credits. So if your article is published on Sportskeeda, there is a chance it could get published by these media houses, thus bringing widespread recognition to your writing.
4. You get to develop your literary/journalistic career
Getting published is one thing. Getting published in an arena teeming with experienced journalists, editors and eminent sports personalities is quite another. By writing at Sportskeeda, you can give that much-needed boost to your writing aspirations.
Out here, you can interact extensively with our experienced editorial team to iron out any minor chinks in your writing. You can receive feedback for your articles from the journalists and famous sports personalities who regularly visit the site. You can interview your favourite athletes and learn how to extract the emotions concealed so carefully by celebrities. And most importantly, you can analyze your readers' reactions and get to know exactly what the average sports fan looks for in a sports article.
5. You get up close and personal with star athletes
Have you spent countless hours trying to devise the Perfect Plan to meet your favorite sporting hero or team? You can stop doing that right now, because Sportskeeda is here to help. If you're associated with us long enough, we will be more than happy to give you a media accreditation pass which can help you get not only media privileges at big sporting events, but also the chance to interview star athletes. Your lifelong dream of meeting your favorite sporting idols won't be a dream any more!

It's always nice to be able to brag about your territory without worrying about the image projected by it, right? Sportskeeda constantly strives to make sure that every single aspect of the site is clean and above-board.

So go on, announce your association with Sportskeeda to the whole world. There won't be any backlash there - we can guarantee that.
7. You get to share ideas with sports buffs
Have you always yearned to have a healthy sports debate with an informed and analytical mind instead of locking horns with the regular ignoramuses surrounding you who don't understand a word that you say? By joining our discussion groups and comment threads, you'll get to know what a real sports debate looks like. The people here actually know what they're talking about. And they can actually point things out that can change your opinion of teams and players. Don't think that's possible? Wait till you meet our remarkably knowledgeable and incredibly convincing experts.
8. You can become famous
Sports fans are a passionate lot, and they are also a devoted lot. Is it that difficult to imagine that if they like your writing style, they'll keep coming back for more, maybe even becoming your 'fans'? Sports writers have been known to become legends in their own right. We don't mean to make you nervous, but writing at Sportskeeda might just be your ticket to fame and stardom.
9. The returns you get are not just nominal
Whoever said there's no money in a writing career was probably looking in all the wrong places. If you manage to sufficiently impress our editorial team, you can join our panel of paid writers, thus earning monetary returns for your efforts in addition to the intangible benefits. Yes, writing can be lucrative too!
10. You have FUN!!!
The importance of fun can never be understated, and at Sportskeeda we strictly believe that the best way to manage one's time is to have a good time. Writing about something that you love – sports – can give you such a deep sense of enjoyment and satisfaction that it can make you forget all your other commitments. But don't take our word for that. Try it out for yourself, and you'll know what we're talking about.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - At least three suspected illegal immigrants were arrested Saturday after a drug smuggling boat washed ashore along La Jolla.
A resident spotted the small boat near Windansea Beach just after 6:00 a.m. Saturday.
The U.S. Border Patrol and San Diego police arrived on the scene to find three people unloading what appeared to be 10 bales of marijuana off the boat.
"Once the individuals had the narcotics off the boat, then they were trying to put the boat back into the water. And I suspect to probably leave and then the narcotics would be picked up at a later time," said a Border Patrol representative.
The three suspects were arrested.
Homeland Security is now handling the investigation.

Probably the best food/beer combo you can get n south Huntsville.
A massive variety of great beer at average prices.
Super knowledgable and friendly staff.
Most everyone can suggest a good beer if you don't know what you want.
The food speaks for itself.
They have trivia on Tuesday nights too.
I always like going here.

*** This review is actually for the Mellow Mushroom on the South end of town, but I didn't see it listed... ***
Went in around 10:30 on Saturday night... the place was pretty much dead. They do close at midnight and I guess I wouldn't expect anything on South-side to be busy that late... The bartender was super cute and we chatted about our mutual love of porters. Had the Beer Engineers "Peanut Butter Porter" and a Rogue "Mocha Porter" - both delicious! Also got an, as usual, amazing pizza (pesto, pepperoni, onions, mushroom, peppers, Italian sausage, and extra cheese!).
They didn't have Oscar Blue's "Ten Fidy" which I've been enjoying quite a bit recently...
Nor was the Old Black Bear "Barrel Aged Porter" keg tapped yet... I think I know four locations with kegs not tapped yet, and the one location that's actually gotten around to tapping it closes at 10:00... sigh... 21st century problems...
But I digress... of the two locations (Providence and South Side) I prefer the South Side location of Mellow Mushroom. The overall visual appeal is higher, the food seems better, and I feel like the service has been better - although I do sit at the bar more, and bartenders tend to give excellent service when business is slow.

The selection of beers is around 50 to 60 varieties with 24 taps. The availability of the beer varies. Servers tend to not know what is available and can bring you the wrong beer if you are ordering a seasonal or rotating tap.
Glasses are kept in a freezer, but you can generally request and get a home temperature glass.
The staff have limited knowledge of the beers styles, but they are learning very quickly.
This is not your typical Mellow Mushroom, which is a bummer. Most Mellow Mushroom locations are known for their beer selection.

The Huntsville Mellow Mushroom had a nice motif, using a space concept to match up with Huntsville's "Rocket City" moniker. A little cheesy, but pretty cool.
The service was good. Our server was prompt and attentive, and would make sure we got what we wanted. She even double checked a beer offering for us to make sure it was what we wanted.
The beer selection is good; probably the best I've ever seen at a pizzaria. They have several taps and a nice bottle list. They also carry local brews (Olde Towne, of which I had the coffee porter).
We ordered the buffalo chicken pizza sans onions. It was a good pizza. Nice crisp crust and very cheesy, and they didn't skimp on the toppings.

Part of the MM chain out of Atlanta. Nice clean facility sort of off the main highway in a "town center" type of development. Open, lively bar area with lots of windows. Tons of families with kids.
Known for it's great pizza. I've been here 3 times and the pizza has never let me down. All ingredients are fresh.
Decent selection of draft beers (about 40) with a couple of decent finds (Double Bastard, Delirium Tremens) among lots of macro.About 50 bottles with nothing out of the unusual.
Having been to Huntsville only a few times I would suspect that this is one of the better food/beer combos in the city.

Mellow Mushroom is new in this part of Huntsville. Walking in you are greeted by a hostess, seating to the left and the main dining to the right. the bar is tucked in the back right corner bu the main windows. It is a U shaped bar with a average craft selection(good for Alabama) I had Dom Oak Barrel Stout on both times and some Terrapin stuff as well. Service is young and slow, some times inaccurate with no beer knowledge of course. Food is exceptional!!! Good stop for a brew after work for sure.
