Shuffling Students in Buffalo
How two studios share dancers—and success
By Nancy Wozny
Buffalo is a dance town. It boasts one of the most vibrant studio cultures in western New York. It's also filled with hardy people who know how to drive in a blizzard and help each other out, so it makes perfect sense that it's home to a pair of studio owners who work together to train students. Leonard Castilone of David DeMarie Dance Studios and Maris Battaglia of American Academy of Ballet share a large group of advanced-level dancers.
"It all started with a performance at Artpark," says Battaglia. In 1979 she and Castilone organized a joint performance for their studios that got the cooperative ball rolling. They have been working with each other for so long that they have a seamless rhythm and enjoy finishing each other's sentences. Both agree that an important aspect of their cooperative spirit is the fact that they offer different programs. Battaglia runs a ballet academy; Castilone a top jazz and tap competition studio. "Our big deal is The Nutcracker," says Battaglia. "Lenny knows that during heavy rehearsal time some kids might miss a few classes. But I try to keep conflicts to a minimum."
The arrangement has some practical advantages. Because their schools emphasize different dance genres, they need each other to create technically well-rounded dancers. Sharing resources makes it easier to stay focused on what they do best.
Although Castilone offers ballet twice a week for his competition team, he sends his top students to Battaglia for further training. For her part, Battaglia knows that pure ballet is not for everyone, so why should she offer jazz and tap classes when an excellent studio is just down the street? The success of this symbiotic relationship shows in the fact that Castilone and Battaglia have been sharing students for 28 years of their 32-year friendship. Both believe in diverse training and want their students to get the best possible dance education. Theirs is an exclusive relationship, though; they do not refer their students to other studios.
Castilone has been a part of the DeMarie studio since its doors opened in 1968. As a student there, he studied with the school's owner, Buffalo dance legend David DeMarie, and became a locally well-known performer and teacher. When DeMarie died of brain cancer in 1989, Castilone took over the school, maintaining its name to honor his mentor. He says his background in musical theater and training as a classical pianist comes in handy for teaching dance, and he continues to broaden his horizons by attending dance seminars every year. Today the school's two studios, in Buffalo and Clarence, share a total enrollment of 1,150 students. Castilone is in the process of building a new facility to replace the current Clarence studio.
Battaglia received her early training at Ginger Burke School of Dance and the Royal Academy of Ballet in Buffalo. At 16, much to the dismay of her overprotective father, she headed off to the School of American Ballet in New York, where she trained until she decided it was time to return to her Buffalo roots. She started teaching a few children in her aunt's basement but quickly outgrew the space. She opened the American Academy of Dance in 1965, now considered the premier ballet academy in the Buffalo area, and has since expanded to two locations with an average enrollment of 610 students. More than 75 of her students have danced with companies in the United States, Canada, and Europe. Battaglia received a 1997 Artists Excellence Award from the Chautauqua Institute, where she has been on the summer dance program faculty (a position she cherishes) since 1989. And in 1999 she was honored with a Western New York Dance Teacher Hall of Fame Award.
Although the two teachers' studios are different, they share a similar culture in terms of dress code, classroom behavior, and expectations for their pre-professional students. "We both have the same ideas on discipline," says Castilone. That consistency prevents students from having to change their hair, outfits, or attitudes as they move between schools.
The big events at Castilone's school—the recital and regional competitions—happen in the spring. He and his students travel to nationals only every other year in order to keep expenses manageable. Schedules do get a bit tricky when both schools do their June concerts, but the scale is different. "We do a small concert in June," says Battaglia. "And we do a huge show," Castilone adds. Several students dance in both productions, which makes for one hectic month. Though it works out well most of the time, it's a give-and-take situation. Both teachers have to be willing to allow some of their key students to miss rehearsals during crunch times; they know that goes with the student-sharing territory.
The success of this symbiotic relationship shows in the fact that Castilone and Battaglia have been sharing students for 28 years of their 32-year friendship.
So what's their secret? Communication is key. "We talk all the time," says Castilone. "We have to, so we can get our schedules straight." He makes it easy for his students to study with Battaglia; his competition program for serious students meets three days a week, which meshes perfectly with Battaglia's ballet classes on alternate days.
They also share a particularly dedicated group of parents. Tuition at two studios can add up, but both schools offer generous scholarships to serious students. Generally, the parents are pleased to be part of two dance-studio communities. One double-dipping studio mom reportedly remarked that the parents all know each other and do their best to help each other out during busy times.
"Each respects the other," says another parent, Janine Bookbinder, "which makes it easy to have my daughter training at both studios." Several parents named carpooling as the key to sanity in a six-day-a-week training schedule. It's obvious from the congeniality in the schools' waiting rooms that this group of dance parents enjoys hanging out together.
As for the students, they seem to enjoy their double life. They understand that versatility is important in today's dance world, and they feel that two studios can offer broader training. "It's fun to take class from different teachers," says Genna Frietas, 13, whose mother danced at David DeMarie Studios as well. "I love the variety. It's never boring!"
Taner Vankuren, 16, says that the training he gets from Battaglia gives him an extra edge when it comes to competitions. Battaglia and Castilone's shared students routinely win high scores at the regional American Dance Awards competition, and several of them have gone on to professional success. Neil Haskell landed a role Twyla Tharp's The Times They Are a-Changin' and, at press time, was competing on TV's So You Think You Can Dance. And Tiger Martina choreographed Penn and Teller's Sin City Spectacular.
Some students find that once they start serious ballet training, that's all they want to do, and vice versa for some of the jazz and tap students. But Battaglia and Castilone have an unspoken agreement not to mourn lost students. "When they leave one of us, we wish them well," says Castilone. "Sometimes [my students] find they really just love ballet, and that's great." Both know that losing a few students is a risk they take in working together and feel their collaborative effort is well worth the sacrifice.
Though this cooperative venture may sound unique, Castilone and Battaglia don't think it is. They are full of examples of how Buffalo people work together, whether it's to shovel snow or put on a show. It's obvious that they love working together and exchanging stories and news in their daily chats. Sharing students is a way to maintain their friendship. They can't imagine not getting along; if they stopped sharing students, they say, they would need to find another way to keep connected. With such a positive working relationship, they keep their distance from negative studio relationships elsewhere in the city. "Competition is good," says Castilone. "It keeps our standards high, but it's much more fun to work together."
Sharing students doesn't work for everyone, Castilone and Battaglia admit. "There's a good way to do it," Castilone says. "And that's what we figured out." A friendship forged through a mutual dedication to quality dance education keeps this Buffalo duo going strong.

Orb of Mordan
An orb of polished stone with many strange runes engraved into it. It is a little bigger than a closed human fist.
Lawful Good and Lawful Evil characters may not use or study this item.
-3 HP, +3MP is "granted" to the owner of this object.
This object is the phylactery for Mordan the Lich King. Normally this is the container of the Lich's life force. As long as a lich's phylactery reamins intact, they will rise again after being defeated. However, this orb seems to have a number of (sometimes conflicting) enchantments which suggest it is more than a "normal" phylactery.
The surface of the orb is covered in many arcane runes and symbols. They are in draconic, infernal, and celestial. Words and phrases intersect in complex ways to form layers of spells and secrets.
The orb seems to drain a bit of life from the owner, resulting in -3HP, while at the same time placing them more in tune to the world of magic. This results in +3MP while they remain the owner of the object. This only applies to users of arcane magic (Wizards, Sorcerers) and not clerics.
The runes and spells contain a great deal of knowldege. It must be studied to learn more. When examining the orb, it is clear there are four categories of study that are possible:
At the outset, it will take only 1 hour of study to attempt to gain a level (and thus earn some knowledge) in a particular area. If you succeed, it will take 2 hours of time to attempt again in the same area of study. So, the length of time required for each attempt is the current level x 1 hour.
To study the orb:

Puerto Rico is very nice. The beach is all around haha. When I went you didn't have to pay taxes on some things. I am not sure if it's still the same now. It's safe. There are no worries. Like all places, if you look for trouble you will find trouble. As long as you enjoy yourself it's fine.
nope, but I've gone to the Dominican Republic :) all I can say is if you're planning to go to central america, you should probably get a travel agency. There are really exclusive coasts just for tourists, and they are pretty safe. There are some excesses obviously, there are some seniors on their senior trip and such and such. I guess, it might be better for you to go with your partner and leave the kids home, but there are many activities they can participate in as well. Go, you'll love it!

Okay, ocean experts – what sea is that? It's vibing Atlantic to me. Hair peeps – was this pic taken in the Seventies?
Is he studying, i don't know, wave endorphins?
Is he a Piscean Poet? Those heavy brows can be Taurus but the set of his mouth is tres Gemini. Is he famous and I am just being bimbonic? I think he should definitely be minister for something. His arms say Aries.
Thoughts please.

National Institute of Allergy andInfectious Diseases (NIAID) http://www.niaid.nih.gov
Wednesday, Dec. 16, 1998
A new study offers hope that an HIV-ravaged immune system can rebuild itself after successful treatment with anti-HIV drugs. Researchers supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) have found that the thymus gland, which produces the immune system's T cells, appears to remain functional well into adulthood rather than just during infancy and early childhood, as current theory holds. They also found evidence that although HIV infection may adversely affect the thymus, the gland continues to produce new T cells after the infection is suppressed by intensive anti-HIV therapy. A report of their findings is published in the Dec. 17, 1998, issue of Nature.
"This is a very promising finding because it confirms that the thymus is active in adults and potentially can partially reconstitute an HIV-infected individual's T cells after his or her viral load has been driven down by highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)," says NIAID Director Anthony S. Fauci, M.D. "Moreover, the technique developed to track newly produced T cells could prove to be a valuable research tool for monitoring immune reconstitution in HIV-infected people."
A research team led by Richard A. Koup, M.D., and Daniel C. Douek, M.D., Ph.D., of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, measured a genetic byproduct of T-cell development in blood samples from 10 HIV-infected and 30 uninfected individuals. Before they are released from the thymus, T cells generate circular fragments of DNA, dubbed T-cell receptor rearrangement excision circles, or TRECs. Previous studies showed that TRECS are stable and are not reproduced during subsequent cycles of cell division. Drs. Koup, Douek and their colleagues hypothesized that the presence of TRECS would identify T cells that had recently left the thymus and thus serve as a marker of thymic output.
Using sensitive DNA tests, the scientists showed that TRECs are present in naïve T cells – those that have not yet encountered their specific antigen – but not in memory T cells – the cloned descendants of cells that have already had such encounters.
"The fact that memory T cells lack these specific sequences," the authors note, "suggests that TRECs are diluted during the switch from naïve to memory phenotype, presumably as a result of cellular proliferation accompanying this process."
The researchers also found that TREC quantity declines significantly with age. Still, they detected TREC-containing T cells in blood samples from persons as old as 73 years. Elderly persons with intact thymus glands had significantly higher TREC levels than did elderly individuals whose thymus glands had been removed during heart surgery or other medical procedures.
Analysis of blood samples from a group of HIV-infected individuals showed that their TREC levels were significantly lower than TREC levels in blood from age-matched healthy individuals. After receiving HAART, however, all but one of the HIV-infected individuals showed a rapid and sustained increase in TRECs.
"Our findings suggest that thymic function is suppressed in HIV-infected individuals and can be improved by reduction of viral load," says Dr. Koup. "Therapies that directly improve thymic function may increase the rate of immune reconstitution after HAART."
The study's project officer, Patricia D'Souza, Ph.D., of NIAID's Division of AIDS, adds, "The next obvious question is to find out what is going on in children being treated for HIV infection. The thymus is much more active in children compared with adults. This technique provides an exciting opportunity to monitor thymic output and immune reconstitution in that population."

Michel Caillot is the nephew of Pierre Morey, former winemaker at Domaine Leflaive, and now proprietor of Domaine Pierre Morey and Maison Morey-Blanc. Michel took over from his father Roger Caillot. Unusually for modern Burgundy, he tends to wait a full 24 months before bottling, although he transfers the wine to tank after 12 months so as to preserve freshness and avoid drying out or oxidizing the wine. His two Meursaults are very different in character. The Tessons comes from what is arguably the best candidate from promotion from village to Premier Cru. It sits high on the hill on a steep slope of limestone and thin topsoil at about the same elevation as Meursault Perrieres or the upper part of Genevrières. The vineyard sees a cooler summer climate here than in the lower vineyards. This is a wine of elegance and class, with energy, minerality , and drive to accompany the nutty Meursault quality.

How to Create a Home Cybersecurity Policy
Do you know what your kids are doing on Facebook? Are you aware of whom (and what) they might be texting?
Do you turn off your computer at night?
Do you remember the last time you updated your antivirus software or downloaded the latest security patches?
If your answer is no to any of these questions, you and your family members could be at risk for all kinds of trouble, ranging from identity theft to getting turned down for jobs.
As family members of all ages use computers and carry smartphones , it's best to consider developing a home security policy to keep everybody safe online.
According to Sarah Carter of FaceTime Communications, a Belmont, Calif.-based maker of communications security software, teens and young adults have grown up in a collaborative environment.
They're much more willing to share information publicly -- much more so than people a few years older.
Sharing what they do, where they have been, where they're going, who they're seeing is common nature to them, Carter said. Doing that online is a natural extension of who they are.
A home cybersecurity policy should focus on what everyone in the household can do to keep information from being stolen and to keep computers safe from viruses and other attacks. It's also about understanding risky behaviors and their consequences.
The policy should be simple enough for every member of the family to understand and should include a parent's right to know what his or her children are doing.
What should be included in a home cybersecurity policy? Some suggestions:
- Don't share any information that you wouldn't want your mother or grandmother to know.
- Befriend only people you know personally on any site where you're exchanging information about your family and personal life. Use privacy settings.
- Designate someone as the family cybersecurity director. He or she will be responsible for updating antivirus software, downloading patches and running virus scans.
- Make sure everyone in the family knows basic cybersecurity rules. Carter said adults have learned not to click on unknown attachments or links, but added we can't expect children to automatically know that.
- Develop safe-practice rules for smartphones and laptops used in public hot spots.
- Password-protect computer log-ins and put away any papers containing sensitive information, such as bank account numbers.
Armed with such information, you'll be well-equipped to protect yourself, your home and your family from identity thieves and other cybercriminals.

Whether you are driving, sailing, hiking or flying, this cross-genre collection of songs is perfect for traveling.
Thanks to all of the friends and folks around the country who have supported my music over the years and especially Islamorada and The Florida Keys. Hope this one travels with each of you for a long while!
Special Thanks to Jon "Guggy" Guggenheim at C-Town Sounds for taking the time to engineer and produce the project.
A break down of the songs...
The TRIAL OF MILES is a reggae/shuffle tune that asks the question are you running to or from, written after several years of listening to Bag a Trix/20Weight and Pink Floyd paired with my life experience as a long distance runner.
ONE LOVE is a G-Love and The Special Sauce inspired tune written by Greg Hagbery. It has been my favorite tune for many years and I hope I did it justice. Great Lyrics! Recorded with permission! Thanks!
SLIP AWAY is an Allman Brother/reggae jam with lyrics by Greg and me. Inspired road trip music…Karma Truck Days!
LEONARD is a John Prine/Gram Parsons inspired country waltz about a cowboy who moves to Los Angeles from Boise, Idaho to raise his kids. If you can't play "Home on the Range", you don't know nothin' about music. That's Andy Leach on pedal steel guitar! Thanks.
RICH MAN is a chill R&B gospel song about a man with AIDS who comforts friends and family with his pride and faith. Life in the Florida Keys is alternative and accepted. Comforting people is often forgotten; it takes a lot of effort to care.
LOOK BACK is an Allman Brother/David Feder inspired finger style song dedicated to my wife Stephanie. A dear friend gave us a quote from Aristotle that said, "Love is a single soul dwelling in two bodies". Thank You Helen and TJ.
GLASS OF WATER is a song inspired by an old poet I knew too briefly, named Raul Clayton. The music is a blend of Bruce Hornsby/Widespread Panic. Tim Longfellow added the great intro…thanks Tim!
DAYS GO BY is a song inspired by love. Originally written as a pop song by Andy Patterson and myself when we were in the band Carnegie Tide in Ft. Lauderdale. I decided to change it to a personal finger style song that is lyrically from the perspective of separated lovers in which one who has passed on is now waiting at the gates of heaven for their lover to arrive and continue their journey together.
SHIPWRECK/GREEN FLASH… Pirate Pink Floyd inspired tune about Miles Fathoms who has just sailed into a hurricane, survived only to breath her last breathe as the green flash burns along with her last moment. Many thanks to Dave Baker on lead guitar, Walter Barnes on Bass, Myron Gardner on drums and Neil Chastain on percussion who were incredibly easy to work with in the studio. This is a great song to play live…
SUNSHINE BILLIONAIRE is a Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks inspired fun song. "I would rather be broke with a tan"… It's good to be back home…
BEAUTIFUL EVENING is a blues inspired evening closer… "Everybody hears a different song"…
SLIP AWAY JAM is a reggae outro. Thanks to Ryan Wilson from 20wt for lending some of his guitar work. "We must be on our way"…
The CD is dedicated to Coach Glenn Lee of CGHS in Ft. Lauderdale and my father Marty Hagbery for all of the positive words and direction over the years. The CD TITLE comes from one of the greatest books on running, Once a Runner written by John L Parker.
So, whether your journey is to or from, the path to betterment is paved with positive thinking and hard work. Love, compassion, faith, pride, life and the afterlife…The Trial of Miles

Peter Graves (1926-2010) was an American actor known for a variety of work in both film and television. He's best remembered for starring in the two Mission: Impossible TV series, in which he played gruff team leader Jim Phelps for six seasons of the original series and both seasons of the revival. He was the brother of James Arness of Gunsmoke fame. Graves was a native of Minnesota, which may or may not be coincidental to his many appearances in movies mocked by Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Bright, deep red. Dark raspberry, spicy oak and mint aromas begin a bit reduced and mute but clear with air. Silky on entry, then velvety and broad in the midde, with complex, soil-driven flavors of raspberry, blackberry, smoke and spices. Brisk acidity still needs a year or two to harmonize with the wine, but the classically dry finish is suave, vibrant and long, with a broad dusting of tannins and a whiff of woodsmoke. This highly individual pinotage from stony, clay-rich soil shows an almost pinot-like suavity of texture.

Off Kid Ink's album My Own Lane coming January 7th.
It looks like Chris Brown will spend up to 3 months in a Malibu rehab facility for his anger problems.The singer was arrested 2 days ago for allegedly punching a man in the face.
TMZ reports that the move could be a way to avoid jail time:
And, as we previously reported, Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos, knows it's very likely the judge in the Rihanna case will revoke Brown's probation, which could put him behind prison bars for up to 4 years. The rehab move is an act of good faith, showing Brown is dealing with his problems.
Chris Brown was released without bail after allegedly punching a fan outside a hotel in D.C. The assault charge has been reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor assault and the singer pled not guilty.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ … the fight started when the man and his friend photobombed Chris, who was posing for a picture with two girls.
Sources close to Chris insist the fight wasn't over a photo — they say the alleged victim tried to force his way onto Chris' tour bus, and Chris was merely trying to stop a trespass.

Call it what you want to call it – but any time the estate tax, also known as the death tax, comes up in conversation, ears perk up and most in agriculture start paying attention. Well, in the past few days, the topic has started simmering again.
No, we're not faced with a situation like we were in in 2011 when we faced a very real potential of estate tax levels reverting back to pre-2001 levels when estates worth $1 million were taxed at a 55 percent rate. At the eleventh hour in 2012, Congress passed the American Taxpayer Relief Act that permanently set the estate tax exemption level at $5 million per individual (or $10 million per couple) and established the top tax rate at 40 percent. This legislation maintained popular provisions like the spousal transfer, the step-up in basis and indexed the estate tax for inflation. By and large, while full repeal was the top priority among agricultural organizations, most in the industry seemed appeased by the permanency under the ATRA.
So, for the past couple of years, except for discussions about how the estate tax fits into overall tax reform efforts, the topic hasn't received a great deal of attention.
Two things this week, however, brought it back to the surface.
First, U.S. Representative Kevin Brady (R-Texas), who has been one of the strongest voices on Capitol Hill advocating for full repeal of the estate tax over the years, was able to top 218-cosponsors on his Death Tax Repeal Act (H.R. 2429). Reaching 218 cosponsors means more than half of the House of Representatives is on board with a full repeal.
This news caused the American Farm Bureau Federation to say now's the time to act.
"Although permanent law enacted as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 provided significant estate tax relief, repeal is the best solution to protect all farms and ranches from the estate tax," said AFBF President Bob Stallman.
The bill may be headed to the House floor for a vote. Rep. Brady was recently quoted in Forbes saying he appreciated Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp's willingness to help secure a floor vote, and he noted that such a vote hasn't occurred in nearly a decade.
"Our goal – and we are determined to achieve it – is to bury the death tax once and for all," said Congressman Brady.
That's the first thing that happened. The second newsworthy nugget this week involves one of the presumed front-runners in the 2016 Presidential election, Hilary Clinton. Over the years, Hilary and her husband former President Bill Clinton have gone on the record supporting the estate tax. Outside the halls of Congress or the White House, though, the Clintons have done the same thing millions of farmers, ranchers, landowners, and small business owners have done – they've worked with estate planners to carefully design their estate so as to avoid being hit with the estate tax.

In June of 2012, Manny Pacquiao suffered his first defeat in seven years after a wildly controversial decision. Two judges scored the bout in favor of Pacquiao's opponent, Timothy Bradley, which left everyone with a sour taste in their mouth.
Now, we will finally get to see the two men meet in the ring once again.
According to a report from Boxing News 24, the rematch between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley will be held on April 12 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
A press tour for the upcoming bout is expected to begin on Feb. 4 in Los Angeles, with the tour continuing in New York on Feb. 5.
In Pacquiao's last fight against Brandon Rios on pay-per view, the event did just 475,000 buys. With an exciting rematch now set to take place, Top Rank is hoping that more people will tune in to see whether or not Pacquiao finally gets the win that many believe he earned in the last meeting.

Kimchi offers an unlimited canvas on which to paint different flavors. Use any crunchy fresh vegetable or tweak the paste by varying the amount of ginger, garlic, fish sauce, and red peppers to customize the taste exactly to your liking.
Water kefir is easy to make and is a great substitution for soda. Fizzy, refreshing, and low-sugar, the flavor options are limitless. Kids (big and little) will love it!
Milk kefir and kefir cream are probiotic beverages that have been cultured using kefir grains. Very easy to make and yields a tangy, yogurt-style beverage. Great in smoothies, over fresh fruit, salad dressings, and ice cream.
Why not try a probiotic spin on America's favorite condiment? Fermenting salsa gives it a tangy taste and a bubbly mouth feel, and it's good for your gut!
Making kombucha tea requires the lowest-maintenance of any cultured beverage. Just make sweet tea every 7-14 days, and bottle the finished tea.
Effervescent, home-brewed, probiotic, non-dairy drink made from a Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBY). Sounds odd, tastes good, no scary mushrooms.

Images via Reuters
AC Milan's resident man-child, former brace face and all-round cutie-pie Alex Pato is off the market. He married his girlfriend, Sthefany Brito, last night in Rio.
Before we go into the crazy-making details of this momentus event, we must point out that in 90% of the photos, Sthef appears to be doing some sort of victory punch/ happy dance with a side order of gloat.
Guess you can't blame her. She's worked hard for her cash prize.
This wedding was serious biz-niz, Kickettes. We're talking pandemonium unlike anything we've seen in the UK for footy weddings. The event was covered by the Brazilian press like the life-altering international news that it was.
Need proof of the hysteria? Perhaps you might want to take a moment to "Dress Your Own Sthefany". Pick the clothes you'd like her to wear, and drag and drop them onto her body. Go on, we'll wait.
Baller wedding fantabulousness: Guests got into the ceremony using a digital microchip that was concealed in their invitations. Once they arrived at the Copacabana Palace for the reception, they were electronically identified by a video system that announced their name and invited them in. The invitations cost 40,000. The ratio of security to guests was 1:3.
Wardrobe: Pato wore white. Sthefany wore Dolce & Gabbana. Sthefany's mother wore… coral.
Further proof of hysteria: This random woman/actress in the hospital having knee surgery says after she recovers she'll send flowers and a note of apology for missing the wedding.
Tweet excitement: Sthef's brother was so excited he couldn't stop tweeting, writing that he was so excited he felt like it was his own wedding day. Seems creepy, but he did set the pair up in 2007. He also told his "fans" to congratulate his sister, not him.
Transport: Pato came to the church in a Jag. After getting married, the couple went to the reception in a Rolls Royce with their names on the license plate. "The" for Sthef, and "Ale" for Alexandre.
Readiness: The former Miss Brito arrived at the church to get ready with her mom at about half-two in the afternoon. (The wedding didn't start until 8.) The press showed up at the church two hours later and watched the flowers arrive. We can think of few day jobs worse than this.
I Went To Pato's Wedding And All I Got Were These Stupid Sandals: Yup, they gave guests flip flops with their names on 'em. 500 pairs. (Scroll down to see the pics)
Footy guests: Kaka and wifey Caroline were there. No word on if they were gifted any sandals.
Honeymoon: Is in Bora Bora.
Press were barred from going inside the church or attending the reception. Those photos will be published exclusively in Extra magazine today.
Congratulations! We wish the pair all the best.

Landing Peyton Manning or a catastrophic injury to Mark Sanchez were the last hopes for Mike Tannenbaum to escape the Sanchez death spiral.
1) Not properly replacing Faneca and Woody (the reason this team won was because we had the best offensive line in Football. He replaced two all-pro's with 6th rounders and FA's)
2) Not even making an attempt to bring Braylon Edwards back
Both of those moves I disagreed with at the time but supported Tanny with the "He knows more than me" belief. It's his job, he's around it all day so he must have a plan.
The problem I'm seeing now is there was NO PLAN!!!
Landing Peyton Manning or a catastrophic injury to Mark Sanchez were the last hopes for Mike Tannenbaum to escape the Sanchez death spiral.
Tanny will be eventually be tossed...the question is who is the right FOOTBALL GM to build an organization like the Giants, Pats, Steelers, Ravens, 49rs, etc, etc.?
Wer'e going into a situation next year where RB, 3 starting LB's, both starting Safeties, WR, and OL are absolute dire needs for this team. AND from the looks of it so far QB is too. That's not even considering the pending Revis situation. I have defended Tanny but it's painfully obvious this team is dreadfully lacking at many starting positions added to the fact we have no depth....there's really no other person to blame for it. Fact is if Woody is looking to go another direction with leadership then this coming offseason is the time to do it. Let a new GM decide how he wants to move forward building this team with so many needs.
Well after this disaster. I would like them to Start Davis, Coples, Mcintyre, and Ellis next week. The linebackers are very slow to fill. Put Davis next to Harris and let Harris takeover the Scott role. Coples has to play, he was the only bright spot yesterday. They need to get the young guys in now. Experience for next year, also to see if these guys can play. If not then go in a different direction.
Dline of Coples - Ellis - Wilkerson
Linebackers of Pace - Davis - Harris - Mcintyre
DB Berry - Bell - Landry - Cromartie. I do not care if Berry is just signed off the street. Manningham should have had 3 bomb's yesterday if Smith could throw the football.
Wilson as the nickel, Lankster as the dime.
Start Powell, let Mcknight be the change of pace and bring Greene in to give Powell a blow. I hate seeing the Pats bringing in this kid Bolden running crazy, Skins have this kid Morris run crazy. Hey give this kid Grimes a shot. I am sick of seeing Greene running in to the back of his oline. The good backs make their own holes, by patience and finding the openings.
The oline situation. Slauson is horrible and Moore is ancient. Do not think Ducasse is the answer, but he is a strong dude, let him take over for Slauson.
They need to go out and sign one of these over the hill receivers, Johnson, Burress just for experience. Man I wish Edwards was here now and so does Tanny.
They need Keller back.
Totally scrap the Tebow experiment, does nothing but destroy rhythm.

all we have to work with here are side show attractions, malcontents, hand me downs, old people and Tebow. The SOJ are living the history of making completely inept talent evaluations, draft picks and game time decisions. Time to get real football people at the top who know how to talk football to other real football people and staff the roster with real football players.

Since they're not going to do that on purpose, what we will see is if the Fans holding out hope that Sanchez can be a decent QB comes to fruition.
This Franchise Known as the NY Jets has always been reactive instead of proactive. We have always release players and coaches 1 yr to late and in some cases,we may not have had the forseight to realize what could be if we stayed the course.
Walt Michaels built a speal team,but because of an emotional mistake got blackballed and his team was given to Walt Michaels. A Young inexperience Pete Carroll was not allowed to develop as a HC because of his player friendly atmosphere. Then there was Herman Edwards who was completely different from anything that had walk a sideline as an NFL HC. He didn't micro-manage his coordinators instead allowed them to have total control of their Units while he concentrated on managing the team.
The Jets need to do something unheard-of to make a statement to the players and the Fans in an effort to satbilized this mess.
Starting Tebow is not that option.
The problem is,on the team itself there's nobody that can make such a statement.Therefore,I look for either the GM or the HC to be replace at or around the "BYE" if this mess continues .
Agree with many of the things said here - but its still early in the year..you cant bench Sanchez. You gut it out and pray - lots of time during the bye to reflect on a change...any change at QB would be huge and no turning back so they have to be sure season is at brink which it is not yet -
I do agree that Rex MUST play the younger guys now. Powell, Davis, Coples, Ellis - no excuse to not have them in the game!
I dont see Woody making the ultimate change unless this ends up being a disasterous 4-12 season (which it may) - if thats the case then who is out there/available that would be an upgrade over Rex? Tanny I think has earned his ticket out but how can you bring in a new GM with rex? Just dont see any big changes this year...Woody will rely on back to back AFCCGs and give them one more shot....Revis injury gives them excuse.
Tennenbaum must go and I agree with a few of the posters here.
Better to do it sooner than later. Let a new GM come in and make the proper rebuilding decisions.
Tannenbaum is going to do everything in his power to win and protect his job - right now the Jets need a GM thinking about rebuilding.
The Tebow thing was stupid, I said it when it happened.
I expect the players they draft to improve from year to year...
Name a player(s) that have actually improved from when they were drafted.
Sanchez has regressed. SGreene looked better as a rookie coming out of college than he does now..
KWilson looks the same..Ducasse TBD...McKnight, Connor...I don't see any improvement..
Has Keller really improved since being drafted?
Only D'Brick, Mangold, Revis and Harris have developed.
tannenbaum is the silent killer in this organization. the vernon gholston draft pick set this organization back years. we passed many other good players who are contributing as we speak.
draft pick busts year after year equates to the team on the field yesterday.
signing old vets wont do anything for this team but maybe win us a few games and they wont be playoff games.
im not buying into the dl draft strategy either. we had pouha and devito and can only get so many dl out there at once. we need playmakers on both sides of the ball. we finally get two decent safetys and revis goes down. the key is depth and tanne fails at providing it on all sides of the ball.
we are all frustrated and angry its a football hangover morning jets style.
Brick still can't run block at the POA. Mangold has not been the same player since he was Injured last yr. Harris looks like a totally different player with almost half the fan base thinking he's grossly over paid. Keller has always been an over hyped pass catching TE something you don't trade up for and something you don't give big money too.

Basic help using the csound~ object
Viewing 7 posts - 1 through 7 (of 7 total)
I have looked at the csound~ help file and .csd file (version 1.0.3, csound version 5.07) and I think I need some simpler examples. for instance, one that just outputs a sine wave tone. Is it possible to put an audio signal in an inlet of a csound~ object, process in csound and then use the output in MAX/MSP? Anyone have a simple example of this?
Never mind! I figured it out.
try inch opcode.
If the moderator agree with putting a csound's orch on this forum I have an example to give.
Otherwise contact me offline.

I am not the moderator, but why should this not be allowed? It's even
completely on topic. I'd be interested…
I'd love to see more csound~ examples in this place….
Stefan Tiedje————x——-
–(_|_ —-|—–|—–()——-
– _|_)—-|—–()————–
I've been meaning to provide some more examples (simpler and more advanced), but I've been really busy. I will probably include some more examples with the release of [csound~] 1.0.4 (coming in mid or late January). Of course, if anyone is willing to share some examples of their own, I would be happy to include them.
I agree with Stefan. Csound code should be allowed (as well as
RTcmix, Chukk, etc…) if it isn't already.

A brief note on a telling dichotomy:
When the left describes something they don't like about Christianity or Judaism, they are not shy about it. They'll even pin bombings or shootings on "Christian terrorists" or "Tea party" people ( which to many on the left seems synonymous), before any evidence is in hand at all. But they are often strangely gently and circumspect when it comes to handling Islam: Continue reading

Wow, posts here get the absolute bare minimum amount of editing, don't they? Inaccurate, unnecessary, hints-that-are-actually-just-features, you name it. If I wanted to see just anyone posting "hints", I'd go to a public forum.
Remove the Music Store from iTunes 5's Sources list
I usually favor more hints, rather than less. It's not like you're drowning under many hints from this site per day. I think it's worth pointing out that this feature was moved to Parental Controls, at least.
Remove the Music Store from iTunes 5's Sources list
Out of 7,764 hints, how many are bogus like this one? A dozen, tops? It's such a tiny percentage that I don't see why you'd get so steamed up about it.

I have an astcg5 that is kind of flakey. I have set it up about 15 times. about half of that worked correctly. went goto, and tracked nicely. the other half is running me nuts! I bought it previously owned, so returning is not an option. It has the gps add-on component. at first I thought it was user error. I do not think so anymore. one problem I found and corrected was the drive gear was adjusted too far away from the dec axis, and it would not handle a heavy refractor. this has been corrected. now... well, sometimes when I go for an alignment star, it almost goes to it, then drifts away at about 5x, without ever stopping. last night it did this,and all I wanted to do was look at the moon and saturn with my binos. So I thought no problem, all I want is tracking , so I did quick-align. no go. moon kept drifting out like there was not any tracking at all. There has been a few times when I had no problem at all! has anyone ever had this situation ? If so, what is it and how do I cure it? Any suggestions?
