This arrangement is one for the ages. Gregg Nestor has created a masterful edition of some of Bach's most sublime music.

Congratulations to Gregg Nestor and to Clear Note for its publication.
Jeffrey Goodman, composer and guitarist
New Reviews: Duo Sonidos and Duo Kontaxakis-Ivanovich
We got two very nice reviews recently. Here is one from Duo Sonidos about our arrangements of Three American Pieces by Lucas Foss for violin and guitar and Danze Sauvage by Szymanowski:

William Knuth, violin /Adam Levin, guitar Duo Sonidos
Here is another one from Duo Kontaxakis-Ivanovich about our arrangements of three film music pieces: El Cid (Rózsa), Lydia (Rózsa/Tedesco) and Psycho (Herrmann):
Dear Gregg,
In the name of our Duo, I would like to thank you for sending us your fantastic arrangements and for your kindness of allowing us to play it in concerts. In last 10 days, we gave two recitals, in Tuzla (Bosnia-Herzegovina) and in Belgrade (Serbia) where we performed El Cid, Lydia and Psycho music, and public's reaction was thrilling!! Everyone loved the music and enjoyed it very much, especially us. It was a pleasure to play it, to work on it and to perform it. You made a fantastic work in orchestrating it and putting it on two guitars. Bravo! I send you the booklet from our concert in Tuzla in pdf. Once again, thank you for everything! Keep in touch.
Yours, Dejan
Korngold Performance Premiere
At the Boston Guitarfest in 2013, there was a fine premiere performance of Gregg's two-guitar arrangement of Korngold's Intermezzo & Hornpipe from Much Ado About Nothing. Guitarists Zaira Meneses and Adam Levin joined forces to perform this piece.
Here is a video of the duo playing the arrangement:
Rózsa Guitar Sonata Videos
German guitarist Oliver Eidam recently completed a live YouTube video featuring the Rózsa Guitar Sonata, written for me by Hungarian master composer Miklós Rózsa in 1986. (Rózsa wrote the music for such films as "Ben Hur", "Spellbound" and concert works such as the Violin Concerto commissioned and recorded by Jascha Heifetz.) I am happy to provide the links below to his masterly performance. The Rózsa Guitar Sonata should be in every guitarist's repertoire.

Perseid Meteors and the Milky Way
Magic Hour By Ben Canales.
NGC 3521: Galaxy in a Bubble
Image Credit & Copyright: R Jay Gabany (Blackbird Obs.), Collaboration: David Martinez-Delgado (MPIA, IAC), et al.
Gorgeous spiral galaxy NGC 3521 is a mere 35 million light-years away, toward the constellation Leo. Relatively bright in planet Earth's sky, NGC 3521 is easily visible in small telescopes but often overlooked by amateur imagers in favor of other Leo spiral galaxies, like M66 and M65. It's hard to overlook in this colorful cosmic portrait, though. Spanning some 50,000 light-years the galaxy sports characteristic patchy, irregular spiral arms laced with dust, pink star forming regions, and clusters of young, blue stars. Remarkably, this deep image also finds NGC 3521 embedded in gigantic bubble-like shells. The shells are likely tidal debris, streams of stars torn from satellite galaxies that have undergone mergers with NGC 3521 in the distant past.
Mangaia's Milky Way -
From Sagittarius to Carina, the Milky Way Galaxy shines in this dark night sky above planet Earth's lush island paradise of Mangaia. Familiar to denizens of the southern hemisphere, the gorgeous skyscape includes the bulging galactic center at the upper left and bright stars Alpha and Beta Centauri just right of center.
Stars and Dust of the Lagoon Nebula -
The large majestic Lagoon Nebula is home for many young stars and hot gas. Spanning 100 light years across while lying only about 5000 light years distant, the Lagoon Nebulae is so big and bright that it can be seen without a telescope toward the constellation of Sagittarius.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Farmers taking a lot of crop
Manitoba sees record harvest this year
Prairie farmers are harvesting their biggest ever crop and yields are higher than many local grain growers can recall.
This year's harvest is so large some farmers -- and at least one local elevator company -- have had to dump grain on the ground because their bins are bursting. Others are tucking grain inside sheds not normally used for crop storage.
Grain growers and agricultural experts interviewed Friday used terms such as "fantastic," "incredible," "phenomenal," "exceptional," and "best crop in a lifetime" to describe the size of this year's harvest.
Dampening their enthusiasm is the fact that with prices tumbling, many may not make any more money than they did last year.
But in any event, 2013 appears destined to be a crop to remember.
Doug Chorney, who farms near East Selkirk, said his spring wheat yielded a record 71 bushels per acre. On an average year, it's more like 40 to 45 bushels per acre.
-- Brent Sholdice, plant manager of the Paterson Grain terminal
"I know that's the best we've ever had," he said of the family operation, which dates back to the early 1940s.
What's more, he achieved the personal record on a 240-acre field that had been damaged by hail, leaving the ground littered with wheat kernels.
Across Manitoba, farmers are reporting spring wheat yields as high as 85 bushels per acre -- about twice an average crop. The provincial Agriculture Department says it has heard of canola yields as high as 65 bushels per acre and barley yields as high as 140 bushels per acre this year.
Neil Townsend, director of market research with CWB (formerly the Canadian Wheat Board), said production of the six major grains -- wheat (including durum) canola, barley, oats, flax and rye -- is predicted to reach a record 61.4 million tonnes on the Prairies, shattering the old mark by seven million tonnes.
Over the past five years, production of these grains has averaged 48.6 million tonnes.
"The yields are exceptional this year," Townsend said.
"We had pretty good weather, but the technology is also there to give people more yield, right. And you know we're seeing that if the weather co-operates, the ability of the plant nowadays is to just give yields that you didn't get before."
The Prairie average yield for red spring wheat is projected to come in at just under 47 bushels per acre -- a record. The average wheat yield for the previous five years was 41 bushels.
Townsend cautioned, however, the high production will not necessarily translate into a financial bonanza for farmers. That's because grain markets are falling as global production for such crops as wheat, corn and soybeans are at or near record levels.
"Prices are going in the wrong direction because of some global factors. Generally it's a bear market," Townsend said.
Storage is becoming an issue for farmers as the harvest nears completion in many areas.
With cloudy and damp conditions idling combines in Manitoba on Friday, many farmers took the opportunity to deliver grain to elevators to make room for crops still out in the fields.
At the large Paterson Grain terminal northwest of Winnipeg, 15 to 20 large trucks -- many of them for-hire haulers -- were lined up to deliver grain throughout the day. Nearby, a giant pile of winter wheat, estimated by truckers at 1.5 million bushels in size, stood on the ground, covered by tarps.
Curtis McRae, who farms 5,000 acres of land near St. Andrews, had been waiting in line for two hours to drop off a load of grain when he was interviewed Friday. "They say it's a good problem (the huge crop) but the stress is killing me and the sleep is very little," he said with a laugh. He still has 500 acres to harvest.
Brent Sholdice, plant manager at the Paterson terminal, said the giant elevator opened its doors at 6:30 a.m. Friday and would remain open until 9 or 10 in the evening.
"Right now, everybody's trying to make space for soybeans (a later maturing crop still to be harvested)," Sholdice said.
"This is the biggest (overall) crop I've ever seen."

Whether it's real or not is yet to be seen, but this is the first time we've managed to catch a glimpse of video coverage that actually looked legit. The parts were assembled together and displayed in live-action (as opposed to CGI, or graphical representations and mockups) for everyone to see.
Although we obviously cannot verify its authenticity, it does look very much like an Apple product. If it is fake, and this doesn't turn out to be the design, then they've done a great job at creating a believable representation.
The back of the phone is two-tone, which somewhat surprises me, but doesn't insult my intelligence of Apple's design decisions. Their Macbook Pros, for example, are two-tone, whether you're referring to the aluminum body and black keys, or the screen's perimeter being black as well. It's not entirely ridiculous to see this being the proposed design being manufactured, especially if Apple is looking to enhance the experience with a new charging system.
Also, as you likely noticed from the video, the phone clearly has a smaller dock connector, no headphone port on the top anymore, and the screen is noticeably larger (well, longer). Nothing else can really be concluded for sure based on the video, but it's at least a design change, which will please a lot of people.
Some believe the iPhone look is getting dull. While I would generally disagree with them for the most part (since everything else about their phones aside from physical appearance on the outside gets upgraded nicely), I still welcome it.
What do you think of this? Is it legit? Do you think it's a fake? If so, why? What do you like about it? Let us know in the comments below.

Genome Arrays for the Detection of Copy Number Variations in Idiopathic Mental Retardation, Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy and Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Lessons for Diagnostic Workflow and ResearchHochstenbach R. · Buizer-Voskamp J.E. · Vorstman J.A.S. · Ophoff R.A.
aDivision of Biomedical Genetics, Department of Medical Genetics, bDepartment of Psychiatry, cDepartment of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience, University Medical Centre Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands; dCenter for Neurobehavioral Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, Calif., USA
We review the contributions and limitations of genome-wide array-based identification of copy number variants (CNVs) in the clinical diagnostic evaluation of patients with mental retardation (MR) and other brain-related disorders. In unselected MR referrals a causative genomic gain or loss is detected in 14–18% of cases. Usually, such CNVs arise de novo, are not found in healthy subjects, and have a major impact on the phenotype by altering the dosage of multiple genes. This high diagnostic yield justifies array-based segmental aneuploidy screening as the initial genetic test in these patients. This also pertains to patients with autism (expected yield about 5–10% in nonsyndromic and 10–20% in syndromic patients) and schizophrenia (at least 5% yield). CNV studies in idiopathic generalized epilepsy, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depressive disorder and Tourette syndrome indicate that patients have, on average, a larger CNV burden as compared to controls. Collectively, the CNV studies suggest that a wide spectrum of disease-susceptibility variants exists, most of which are rare (<0.1%) and of variable and usually small effect. Notwithstanding, a rare CNV can have a major impact on the phenotype. Exome sequencing in MR and autism patients revealed de novo mutations in protein coding genes in 60 and 20% of cases, respectively. Therefore, it is likely that arrays will be supplanted by next-generation sequencing methods as the initial and perhaps ultimate diagnostic tool in patients with brain-related disorders, revealing both CNVs and mutations in a single test.

sorry just ugly sobbing to "Hate To See Your Heart Break"
just patiently waiting for side C…
Suri Cruise is trying to look like Hayley. Ha
Me when the chorus of Part II starts:
This is how I see it:
If you are afraid of paramore changing their sound a bit, then you are afraid of change in your own life.
istillloveparamores 'rant' about the new albums cover got me into doing some research, and to take a more artists standpoint on it.
Now, most of the time in any piece of art work colors are not thrown on their willy nilly. They have a meaning or they symbolize something, trying to reach a bigger meaning without just screaming it at you. In this specific piece blue is a main color. It's bright and vibrant and easily noticeable. And when I did some research, guess what blue symbolizes?
- Freedom
- Strength
- New Beginnings
Blue skies are emblematic of optimism and better opportunities
Blue is the color of loyalty and faith.
Blue is power.
Isn't that interesting? You can put this all together of how it ties into this new album.
Now when you research more in depth on the color green, another main factor of color in this piece you come up with some more interesting discoveries.
Green symbolizes things like
- Self Respect
- Well Being
- Freedom to Pursue New Ideas
Green will help give you protection from fears and anxieties connected with the demands of others
It also means learning, growth and harmony.
Green is the color of balance.
Now black comes up with some negative things most of the time but it can also express the depths of the unknown. Just like this album has been for them.
And lastly, have you noticed that the only dash of pink is on Hayley? I found an interesting bit about how pink can symbolize wanting to stay a child at heart, or wanting to keep some part of that childhood innocence. Could that symbolize how Hayley has told us she'll never really let that teen angst girl inside her go?
Could any of this really connect at all? I don't know, you decide.
But me?
I don't believe in coincidences.
Paramore have released the first single off of their new album. Check out the track listing for the band's new album here and stream "Now" below by clicking "Read More."
"The 'fame' part of music is bogus anyway. I will be ecstatic if our album does well and people love it, but I'll still feel dumb every time we go to LA and some paparazzi guy—who doesn't even have a clue who I am—starts taking pictures of me and calling me 'Kayley'. I'll still be embarrassed if we're walking down a red carpet, all dressed up, and someone asks me what I think of Miley Cyrus' new haircut. Are you kidding me? That's really what it means to be called 'famous' in this country, and that stuff is meaningless. I like the work part, the creative part, and the connection I get to make with real people because of music."
"Paramore' will be released April 9th"

UPDATE 7/31/14 @ 4:14 p.m.
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Crews are still working at the Morris Building in downtown Huntington following a massive fire Sunday morning.
Thursday, fencing was put up outside the building until a structural engineer can get on scene.
Investigators believe it started in an old elevator shaft, causing severe fire damage to the roof and water damage to the several floors beneath.
Now, that damage impacts thousands of others, trying to use AT&T Wireless.
AT&T said the raging fire didn't just damage the Morris Building, it also destroyed their cell phone tower.
Now, some said something as simple as sending a text message is a big hassle.
If you're an AT&T customer and haven't noticed the service problems, at least one business can fill you in on what it's like.
"We can't run credit cards, we can't get on Facebook, we can't do any of our normal day-to-day business," said Bow Love Hairbows Owner, Brian Lamp.
Lamp is struggling to keep his business online.
He relies on AT&T's mobile hotspot for service. Unfortunately, after Sunday's fire at the Morris Building, that service is spotty at best.
"We get to run a credit card, I have to run across the street to the Rio Grande restaurant and they let me get on their Wi-Fi and run their credit card and run back across the street," he said.
"It's not that we don't care about the building or anything like that, but people don't realize what the tower did, with it burning up, how it affects people downtown too," said Lamp.
He said the effects are already being felt. In addition to credit card swipe problems, he's having a tough time with online auctions.
He said it's all because the service just won't work.
AT&T released a statement about the service outages:
"Due to damaged equipment from last weekend's fire in the Morris Building, some AT&T wireless customers may experience issues with in-building coverage in the areas of River Park Hospital, the Amtrak Station, and Big Sandy Superstore Arena. Wireless service impact will primarily be limited to in-building coverage. AT&T engineers are currently investigating options for adding temporary capacity while our damaged equipment is repaired. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."
But as far as a time-frame for when service may be back to normal, that's up in the air.
"The ones who shop with us on a daily basis, they understand, but for the new customers, it just doesn't look that great," said Lamp.
The owners of Bow Love Hairbows said they reached out to AT&T for a solution and were told if they switch to a new provider, they'd still have to pay the early termination fee of about $700.
In the meantime, it seems they're stuck borrowing Wi-Fi.
Officials with AT&T tell WSAZ.com their tower on top of the Morris Building was burnt in the fire.
Company officials say due to the damage, "Some AT&T wireless customers may experience issues with in-building coverage in the areas from River Park Hospital, the Amtrak Station, and Big Sandy Superstore Arena."
They also say wireless service impact will primarily be limited to in-building coverage.
Crews have been at the site of the fire on Thursday, investigating options for a temporary tower, while the damaged equipment is repaired.

text: I'm 4.5 months PP and would like to drop from 7 to 6 pumps/day. My current schedule is 2:30am, 7:00am, 10:00am, 1:00pm, 4:00pm, 6:30pm and 9:00pm. I would like to try to space out the night time pumps further apart so I can get more consecutive sleep. Do you think I could do a pump at 12:30am or 1:00am and then again at 7:00am or would this be too long between pumps?

I read a lot of reviews before I made my purchase. Some reviews state that the screen will bend and the internal components will break if you pick it up with one hand on the corner. This is all false...I do just that all the time and my 12.2" Tablet is working perfect. I love this tablet for the multitasking aspect (that the iPad does not have). I can shoot photos with my Digital SLR in Raw format, import the photos edit the Raw Images with Photoshop and post online to share with the world. I can watch a Movie, send an email, surf the web and browse photos, all at the same time with the 4 way split screen. What other tablet can do that? The power and versatility of the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is perfect for my needs. If I had an iPad I could not d this. iPads are nice but they are limited in what they can do. I don't like to be held back...I like to multitask.

I fell in love with my Note Pro until 3 weeks ago I went to use it and it had nothing but a black screen. Somehow I got it to eventually come on and it worked great for 3 weeks. However, I went to use it last night (took it off the charger) and yet again a dead, black screen. It had been on the charger for the entire day while I was gone to work so I know it's not the battery. For the price I paid for my tablet I shouldn't be having problems like this. I should have stuck with my I pad, very disappointed to say the least.

A lot of features!
By Red1Hunter
from Auburn, KS
I am totally impressed with this tablet; much more than I expected. High quality, ease of use, and picture quality is superb. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a tablet. This Samsung could easily replace my laptop. I read all previous reviews; and having the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phone, this purchase was a no-brainer. Thank You Samsung!!
Easy to Use
By gouder
from Carmichael, CA, USA
I am older than 65 years, and this is the first tablet I have owned or used. It is amazing how simple and intuitive it is, and the screen is so sharp and easy to read. Fantastic product. Samsung is doing something right. I also have a Samsung smart phone and it is great too.

By Deadhed106

Liked the overall use of the galaxy pro tablet, highly disappointed when the video card when out on it three weeks after purchase, for the price I paid for the tablet I did not expect to have the trouble I had with it, I was happy with the unit tilli could not view it anymore.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I just purchased my tab pro yesterday...I think I have spent 14hrs, it's just amazing. The task manager has a 1 click memory clear..not that you need it with 3gb of ram. It's every thing that you would every want for features and performance!

Best Tablet
By Teela95
from Philadelphia, PA, USA
This has been the best tablet I own. The size for me is perfect. I can see everything and hit everything with my big fingers. I had a 10.1 before and found it a little small. I also own a 8" tablet that I only read on. The screen on this tablet looks great. The colors are vivid. I also watch TWIT TV, Netflix on this with no problems. I keep it next to me when watching TV and play a game or two. I'm very happy with this Samsung tablet. If you thinking about getting one don't wait get one now.

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WSAZ) -- A piece of Pikeville history will be closing its doors for good on Friday.
Jerry's Restaurant has been a staple in downtown Pikeville for more than 50 years.
"They opened the Jerry's in 1960 and operated it from Jerry's 1960 to present day, so 53 years that they have. Third generation right now is what we're into with the Justice family," said owner Drew Justice.
Justice grew up in Jerry's, once owned by his grandfather, passed to his father and now himself.
But tough times have hit many including Jerry's, and Justice says it is time to say goodbye.
"Times change and we do appreciate everybody that's come by and had their last J-boy, strawberry pie, and hot fudge cake. This whole week we've been packed, swamped," said Justice.
"If the walls could tell you all that went through this place right here it would be unbelievable," said loyal customer Rita Blackburn.
Tivis Branham has spent much of five decades seated at Jerry's.
"This is history. This is history itself really. I've seen so many things happen here that are good," said Branham.
Back in February 2012, the Jerry's Restaurant in Prestonsburg closed after 43 years of business.

Our collection from Rhys Lewis brings chemistry into focus, showcasing the bangs, pops, flames and colours of some classic experiments. All of these demonstrations reveal an important aspect of the chemistry of their ingredients, and have been designed and shot with educators in mind.
Caesium in water, nitrogen triiodide, exploding bubbles and molten iron… here are some of chemistry's most thrilling reactions, slowed right down for your appreciation. Filmed with the help of the experts at the Royal Institution in London, these stunning shots were produced used a 2000 frame-per-second full HD Photron BC2 camera.
These mathematical animations show how complicated and beautiful patterns can arise from relatively simple equations. Using modern modelling techniques, Christian Koch's work shows how the behaviour of many individual particles and their connections can lead to large-scale effects that are visible in the world around us, from magnetic fields to earthquakes to vast star clusters.


text: so i guess i created this thing to track my progress as i do the Rapha festive 500 thing. its 500k in a week, which i think is about 310 miles or so. seeing as how i ride far too much indoors during the winter (i mean, i'm playing Playstation and reading the newspaper in between intervals), and that my weekly milage rarely tops 150 miles, i guess i'll give it a go. i generally don't ride my race bike at all during the winter, so the vast majority will be clocked in on my cross bike (fuji cross comp. its more of a winter training and commuter whip rather than a cross racing machine) and my fixed gear (a 05-06-ish? raleigh rush hour. probably gonna do most of it on the fixed gear. i mean, if im gonna double my weekly milage, i may as well pedal most of it. today was just a quick spin outdoors after work and then home to set up this page, put film in the camera, clean the bike off, and think where i'm going to ride tomorrow. living in the suburban sprawl isnt really the best for riding. no open country rounds like, well, the country has. and no nice parks like cities do. i do know a route or six though, and i hope everyone enjoys following me doing this (if anyone does) as much as i will riding it.

Looking to Purchase a San Diego Foreclosure? You have found the most accurate list of foreclosures in San Diego County. No fees or registration is required to view all of these homes for sale and all listings on the Team Aguilar website are updated hourly.
Is it difficult to purchase a foreclosure in San Diego?
Yes & No, it's easier to purchase a foreclosure than a short sale because foreclosures are on the market and ready to be sold. They have no liens against the home, the mortgage has been wiped out and you can close escrow in 30-45 days from when your offer is accepted by the bank. What can make the purchase process difficult is if you have very few homes available to purchase like we currently do. We have seen a steady decline in foreclosure listings in San Diego and this is driving prices up and making the offer process much more difficult. Make sure you're working with a quality REALTOR® who is representing your best interest.
Foreclosure vs Short Sale
A foreclosure is a REO property, it has been foreclosed on by the bank thus eliminating the previous homeowner. These homes have had all previous liens removed so there is no longer a mortgage owed against the home. A foreclosure can usually be purchased in 30-45 days. A short sale is where the homeowner still owns the property and is usually still living in the home. The homeowner typically owes more money to the bank than what the home is worth and either can't afford to make the mortgage payment or wants to sell the home to avoid foreclosure. Unlike a foreclosure a short sale still has a mortgage against the property and this requires the current homeowner to get approval from the bank to complete the sale. Purchasing a foreclosure can be completed in 30-45 days. The process to purchase a short sale can take a bit longer. I would not discourage you from looking at short sale homes for sale in San Diego because as the economy improves we are seeing fewer foreclosures and we anticipate short sales to be around for another 2-3 years. My suggestion is to look at the short sale real estate listings on our website in addition to the foreclosures for sale. If you're not working with a REALTOR® please contact us. Having so many years of experience selling foreclosures and short sales we have an excellent track record of representing clients and helping them find the perfect home whether it's a foreclosure, short sale or regular sale.
Options to Avoid Foreclosure
You may have arrived to this page looking for options to avoid foreclosure. We can help you explore all of your options. If you feel overwhelmed and unsure of what your options are we would be happy to meet with you in person or perhaps over the phone. Whether it's a loan modification, deed in lieu, real estate short sale or bankruptcy make sure you know what your options are so you can decide what will be best for you and your family. Feel free to contact us by phone, email or using the contact us page. We have helped hundreds of families in San Diego.
Hopefully all of this information will help you and as always feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Mass Spectrometry—From Peripheral Proteins to Membrane Motors
That membrane protein complexes could survive in the gas phase had always seemed impossible. The lack of chargeable residues, high hydrophobicity, and poor solubility and the vast excess of detergent contributed to the view that it would not be possible to obtain mass spectra of intact membrane complexes. With the recent success in recording mass spectra of these complexes, first from recombinant sources and later from the cellular environment, many surprising properties of these gas phase membrane complexes have been revealed. The first of these was that the interactions between membrane and soluble subunits could survive in vacuum, without detergent molecules adhering to the complex.

Region: Oak Cliff & South Dallas
In the case of burlesque, you may not think that venue is all that important. Professional movers and shakers could tease and reveal just about anywhere, and you'd be hooked, right? But the vaudevillian roots of burlesque have a special kinship with atmosphere. There's something about a place with character that really ups the theatrics of the art form. That's why it's in your best interest to be front and center for the Nouvelle Burlesque Revue at the historic Texas Theatre, 231 W. Jefferson St., at 8:30 p.m. Saturday. Watching performers like Austin gals Ruby Joule and Goldie Candela and Dallas' own La Davina and Blaze perform onstage is a nostalgic, glamorous journey filled with slapstick, spectacle and the music of the Dallas Opera's Damon Clark and his jazz trio. It's a downright classy affair, housed in a joint that has highlighted its fair share of silver-screen sirens and grand dames. Tickets for the evening are available for $25 online at prekindle.com. For more information, visit ladivinaburlesque.com.

|Notes from Saturday's games
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 02 June 2007 15:15
White Sox-Blue Jays
CHICAGO: Manager Ozzie Guillen said changes are likely coming for Chicago's bullpen after White Sox relievers gave up six runs in the final two innings in a 9-3 loss to Toronto on Saturday. Guillen said any roster move would likely happen once the White Sox return to Chicago on Monday to face the Yankees. ... The White Sox matched a season high by allowing 16 hits Saturday. The last time they allowed 16 hits was May 28 at Minnesota. ... OF Darin Erstad has been diagnosed with a Grade II sprain of his left ankle, indicating a partial ligament tear. He's expected to miss at least two weeks.
TORONTO: Troy Glaus (tight left hamstring) and Vernon Wells were held out of the starting lineup Saturday. Wells pinch-hit for Matt Stairs in the seventh inning and hit a game-tying, two-run single off Chicago White Sox left-hander Matt Thornton, snapping an 0-for-7 slump. ... Lyle Overbay had three hits, ending an 0-for-17 slide. ... Royce Clayton (sore toe) returned to the lineup after missing the past two games and went 1-for-4. ... Stairs picked up his 600th career walk in the third inning.
TIGERS: Manager Jim Leyland said RHP Todd Jones wouldn't be available Saturday night. Jones threw 46 pitches in trying for a four-out save in Friday night's 12-11 loss, but still has the confidence of his manager. ``Todd Jones is my closer,'' Leyland said. ``It was a freak night. It could happen to anybody. It happened to us.'' ... 3B Brandon Inge (chip fracture of left big toe) and SS Carlos Guillen (left groin strain) were out of the lineup again Saturday. It's unclear when they will return. Inge was hit on the foot by a pitch Tuesday while Guillen was injured running out a ground ball Wednesday. ... For the third straight night, Omar Infante started at third base and Neifi Perez played shortstop. ... Leyland would like to give 2B Placido Polanco a day off, but can't because of the injuries. ``When you have injuries, it not only affects the people who aren't playing, but the people who are playing because you can't give them a day off,'' Leyland said.
ch count closely. Carmona threw 70 pitches in six innings against Kansas City in his next start and 91 in six innings Friday night. ... RHP Fernando Cabrera's problems continued Friday night. He allowed two runs, one hit, three walks and struck out three in 1 2-3 innings. Cabrera has walked 11 in his past 4 2-3 innings. ... The Indians have the 13th pick in the first round of the major league draft, which begins Thursday. Because of signing outfielder David Dellucci and reliever Roberto Hernandez, the Indians lost their second and third-round picks and won't choose again until the 137th pick.
Royals-Devil Rays
KANSAS CITY: RHP Scott Elarton, Sunday's scheduled starter, is 0-5 with a 9.13 ERA in five career games against Tampa Bay. ... OF David DeJesus, mired in an 0-for-11 slide, started Saturday after being out of the lineup Friday. ... LHP John Bale (left shoulder tightness) is scheduled to start Sunday at Triple-A Omaha. ... RHP Leo Nunez (fractured right wrist) struck out one and walked one over two scoreless innings in his second rehab appearance for Double-A Wichita on Friday.
or. ``I thought their pitcher had a lot to do with that,'' Maddon said. ``Whenever you don't hit, it always seems as though you are flat. I just thought that guy pitched a really good game.'' ... 3B Akinori Iwamura hit leadoff for the first time. ``Take it out for a test drive,'' Maddon said.
MINNESOTA: Catcher Joe Mauer, the AL batting champion, sprinted on the field, ran the bases and did agility drills in right field as part of his recovery from a strained left quadriceps from a game on May 5. As long as he feels OK on Sunday, Mauer will probably do more on-field work. The Twins are considering sending Mauer to extended spring training in Florida rather than on a rehab assignment. ``He felt good today,'' manager Ron Gardenhire said. ``He did push the issue. Taking off from first base, that's the hardest I've seen him run. We're all trying to figure out the best thing to do. ... Because of the setbacks the last time he ran, you get a little nervous. We're going to do the right thing.'' ... Gardenhire is gaining confidence in his starters - and plans to keep using this rotation - including Kevin Slowey after his impressive major league debut Friday night. ``I'm going to keep running them out there,'' Gardenhire said. ``It's about letting people do their jobs. If guys in there right now struggle, we'll make adjustments.''
OAKLAND: 2B Mark Ellis returned to the team and was in the lineup a day after the birth of his first child. Ellis missed games Tuesday and Wednesday with a swollen right knee. ... LF Shannon Stewart was off for the second straight day but will be back in the lineup for Sunday's series finale. ... CF Milton Bradley is clearly discouraged with the team's lack of offensive production. ``It's the same story every day,'' he said after the A's lost in 10 innings Friday night. ``We get runners on, but we can't get them in. We need to execute in those situations. We need to start bearing down. It's frustrating when you have a starting rotation that's pretty much lights out and you can't support them.'' ... Injured RHP closer Huston Street, nursing an irritated nerve in his throwing elbow, plans to begin a throwing program Wednesday.
BALTIMORE: 1B-DH Aubrey Huff, hitting .214 over his past 18 games, did not start Saturday night's game. ``He's pressing right now,'' manager Sam Perlozzo said. ``He wants to do well so badly that it's probably wearing a little bit on him, so I thought I'd probably give him a blow and free his mind up a little bit. But he's going to be fine and he's going to be a big contributor. He's had probably the toughest luck of all of our hitters. I mean, he's hit some balls on the screws and has nothing to show for it. But if he keeps centering it, the hits will start falling for him.''
LOS ANGELES: LHP Joe Saunders' emergency start against Baltimore was his first since April 20 at Anaheim, when he pitched six scoreless innings for the Angels in an 8-4 victory against Seattle while wearing a Virginia Tech hat to honor the memory of the 32 shooting victims at his alma mater. He was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake the following day when RHP Bartolo Colon came off the disabled list. ... Friday's 3-2 win marked the Angels' sixth when they've scored three runs or fewer. They entered Saturday 23-5 when they score five or more, but were 12th in the AL in home runs with 42. ``People should stop expecting us to hit a bunch of home runs and score seven or eight runs every night, because that's not the type of team we are,'' cleanup hitter Gary Matthews Jr. said. ``The team plays according to the talent that we have, and I think our guys do a really good job of staying within their game.''
ut. He also singled in the first inning. Escobar, who started at third, arrived just a few hours before the game after the Braves purchased his contract from Triple-A Richmond. He replaced 3B Chipper Jones, who went on the disabled list with a bruised right hand on Friday. ``He made a spectacular barehanded bunt play that looked like he belonged at third,'' manager Bobby Cox said. ``Took the extra base on a hit. He did all that in his first game. That's pretty darn good.'' ... CF Andruw Jones was 1-for-4 with a home run. He extended his hitting streak to eight games.
CHICAGO: After a rather slow start, OF Alfonso Soriano sees some signs that his swing is coming around. He went 2-for-5 and hit his fifth homer on Saturday, and is batting .318 (14-for-44) over his last 10 games. ``The last couple days, I feel very good at home plate,'' he said. ``I'm seeing the ball good.'' Soriano is now hitting .291. ... The Cubs reinstated RHP Juan Mateo from the 15-day disabled list and optioned him to Class-A Peoria. ... C Koyie Hill singled in the sixth inning for his first hit since Sept. 15, 2005, when he was with Arizona.
ARIZONA: 2B Orlando Hudson extended his hitting streak to nine games with a first-inning single. ... Arizona's eight-game winning streak was the longest for the Diamondbacks since they won 12 straight in June 2003. ... The Diamondbacks have lost 16 of their last 20 games against the Mets. ... Former Yankee LHP Randy Johnson did not make the trip to New York and is not expected to accompany the team to the city when Arizona plays the Yankees in June.
NEW YORK: Carlos Delgado's 415th career home run left him 40th all-time, five back of ex-Met Mike Piazza. ... Ruben Gotay has reached base safely in six of his last seven plate appearances with four singles, a home run and a walk. ... The Mets have gone 12 games without an error, tying a franchise record. ... Jose Reyes has three straight multi-hit games. ... Carlos Gomez snapped an 0-for-18 skid with an eighth-inning single.
ST. LOUIS: St. Louis optioned LHP Troy Cate to Triple-A Memphis and recalled infielder Brendan Ryan on Saturday. Ryan made his major league debut and was 0-for-1. ... C Brian Esposito also made his first appearance in the majors on Saturday, but did not have a plate appearance. ... 3B Scott Rolen, who injured his right hamstring in the second inning Friday night, missed Saturday's game and manager Tony La Russa said he will also sit out Sunday's series finale. The Cardinals are also without Chris Duncan, who has missed the last two series with an infection in his left knee. ... CF Jim Edmonds hit his sixth home run of the year and his fifth since May 25 on Saturday. He's hitting .323 with five home runs and eight RBIs since May 27.
HOUSTON: Manager Phil Garner said he thought Carlos Lee's 14-pitch at-bat that ended with an RBI double on Friday night was impressive. ``That was as good of an at bat as you'll ever see,'' Garner said. ``It had every ingredient in it that you want.'' ... Lance Berkman got his 782nd RBI on Saturday to tie him with Bob Watson for fourth on the Astros RBI list. ... Rookie Hunter Pence was 2-for-4 on Saturday for his eighth multi-hit game in the last 10 games. He is hitting .421 over that stretch. His 13 multi-hit games since May 12 are the most in the majors. ... C Eric Munson, whose contract was purchased from Triple-A Round Rock after Friday night's game, got hit first major league hit since August 19 on Saturday. ... Houston had three home runs on Saturday for its first game with more than one home run since the Astros hit four on May 15.
of,'' Gonzales said.
MILWAUKEE: Manager Ned Yost did not hesitate to bring in closer Francisco Cordero to face one batter in an 8-4 victory Friday night. ``It was a save situation,'' Yost said. ``I'm not taking my chances. It was a four-run lead against the meat of their order.'' Cordero is 20-for-20 in save opportunities this season. ... Yost used a different staring lineup for the ninth consecutive game, and the 34th different combination this season. ... The Brewers have used just five starting pitchers in 2007, the lowest mark in Major League Baseball. Tampa Bay has also used just five starters.
LOS ANGELES: INF Andy LaRoche, optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday night, stayed in Pittsburgh an extra day so he could hook up with father Dave LaRoche, the former major league pitcher. Dave LaRoche traveled to Pittsburgh to see both of his sons play - Andy for the Dodgers, and 1B Adam LaRoche for the Pirates - only to have Andy sent down to the minors. Andy LaRoche flied out as a pinch-hitter Friday night, then was sent out following the game. The Pirates had an Adam LaRoche bobblehead doll giveaway Saturday night. ... LHP Hong-Chih Kuo was called up from Las Vegas to start Saturday, his first start since Game 2 of the division series against the Mets last year.
PITTSBURGH: RHP Dan Kolb, who signed a minor league contract with the Pirates during the winter, is pitching again for Triple-A Indianapolis after being sidelined for several weeks because of a hamstring injury. The right-hander is 1-1 with a 1.17 ERA in 14 games and is throwing in the mid-90s again. Given the Pirates' season-long problems with middle relief, he could be called up soon. ... Former Pirates 1B-OF Craig Wilson, cut by the Braves earlier this season, agreed to a minor-league deal with the Chicago White Sox. ... LHP Tom Gorzelanny, who opposes the Dodgers on Sunday, had a 1.83 ERA in six May starts despite going only 3-2. Gorzelanny has allowed two earned runs or fewer in each of his last six starts and has lasted at least seven innings six times in 11 starts.
SAN DIEGO: Cs Josh Bard and Rob Bowen, and relievers Doug Brocail, Scott Linebrink, Justin Hampson, Kevin Cameron and Trevor Hoffman spent two hours Saturday at Bethesda Naval Hospital, visiting with veterans wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan. ... OF Jose Cruz Jr. continues to undergo treatment for back spasms, but the process is going slowly. ``He's getting better,'' Padres manager Bud Black said. ``I don't think he's going to be able to play today. Tomorrow's going to be a stretch, too.''
WASHINGTON: RHP Luis Ayala, who is on the 60-day disabled list, continued his recovery from ligament replacement surgery in his right elbow by throwing 2-3 of an inning Friday for Single-A Potomac on a rehabilitation assignment. ``I was working on my location, throwing balls down and working my sinker on the corners. I threw pitches with good location. It felt good to come back,'' he said. ... Manager Manny Acta said RHP John Patterson, who is on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow and biceps soreness, would work on offspeed pitches in his next bullpen session. If all goes well, Patterson would then move on to pitch in a simulated game.
SAN FRANCISCO: Barry Bonds isn't supposed to start Sunday, but will return to the lineup Monday. ... Newly acquired RHP Randy Messenger changed to No. 23 Saturday. He wore No. 28 in his first appearance on Friday. ... OF Fred Lewis, who hit his first-career grand slam Friday, wasn't in the starting lineup Saturday against LHP Cole Hamels. Lewis was hitting .268 with two homers and 12 RBIs since coming up May 9. ``He has good discipline. He can lay off pitches, choose pitches and hit a good pitch. One area where Freddy has to improve is against left-handers and the more he sees of those, the more comfortable he's going to get,'' manager Bruce Bochy said.
the NL East-leading New York Mets. ``I think they've got a good lead, but without a doubt we can catch up real quick,'' he said. ... Manuel said he won't let Pat Burrell's salary ($13 million) dictate how much he'll continue to play the struggling left fielder. ``I put the lineup in and try to help the team have the best chance possible to win,'' he said. ``You play long enough, there comes a time when you have to make some kind of decision.'' Burrell was hitting .229 with six homers.
CINCINNATI: The Reds returned LHP Bobby Livington to Triple A Louisville Saturday, but haven't forgotten his 6 2-3 inning outing the night before. ``If we need a spot start he might be a high possibility,'' said manager Jerry Narron. ``Next Saturday is a possibility.'' ... RHP Marcus McBeth took Livingston's roster spot. ``Marcus will be in the bullpen, but won't work long relief,'' Narron said. ... Narron said the need for another reliever arose in part from watching the Colorado seventh inning Friday night when the Rockies loaded the bases with a single off Livingston and two walks issued by RHP Brad Salmon. ... Narron doesn't mind using closer RHP David Weathers in more than one inning. ``I'd prefer he would only have to get three outs,'' Narron said. ``We don't always have that luxury.''
COLORADO: OF Matt Holliday showed no signs of the head contusion that took him out in the fifth inning of Friday night's game. ``I'm OK and let's leave it at that,'' Holliday said. ... Holliday was in the starting lineup Saturday night. ``He's a tough guy and a constantly improving hitter,'' manager Clint Hurdle. ``He hits the ball where it's pitched and is taking some of the game's best pitchers out of the park.'' ... RHP Josh Fogg (strained left groin) is eligible to come off the DL on June 7. ``We'll have six starters, but we'll use five,'' Hurdle said.

Cmdr. John Hiltz, number 2 pilot and right wing, on the Federal Drive as the Angels prepare to receive new recruits. He told Tom about the crew of 130 that make the show happen day in and day out.

Troops need four months to leave Afghanistan
The Pentagon has worked up plans that would allow American forces to remain in Afghanistan beyond the end of the year if the contested presidential election drags on and a security agreement isn't signed soon. The Associate Press is reporting that shortly before landing in Kabul for a visit, Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff, told reporters accompanying him on the trip that under optimal circumstances the U.S. would need about 120 days to pull all troops and equipment out of the country if there is no agreement allowing them to stay into 2015.
Jared Serbu, DoD Reporter, Federal News Radio
The percentage of Defense Department contract dollars the Pentagon awards via competitive bids has been falling every year since 2008. And its self-imposed goals for contract competition have been missed every year since then. Now Frank Kendall, the undersecretary for acquisition, technology and logistics, issues a set of orders to Pentagon leaders.

How great of a threat does ISIL pose to the US?
"The immediacy is in the number of Europeans and other nationalities who have come to the region to be a part of that ideology," said Joint Chiefs Chairman General Martin Dempsey.

The immediate problem for the U.S. he says is that some of those foreign fighters which came from the U.S. may have already gone home.

Sophie Monet's Guide to the Big Sur
The California native is exploring her home state and letting it inspire her.
Sophie styling her lookbook post-trip.
Now that Sophie Monet has moved back West after a stint in New York, she's doing some latitudinal exploring. Awhile ago, the designer, who makes earthy chic wood-and-rock jewelry, and her boyfriend headed up to the Big Sur. The jagged cliffs and the dramatic drop-offs got her so excited that she decided to try to mimic the rocky beach setting for a lookbook, shot in Malibu. Here, she shares the five finds that have stuck with her.
Sophie doing her best tree gnome, stepping out of a huge redwood.
The (Daunting) Hike: "There's this place called Jade Cove Beach—so, of course, I was like, 'I can get jade and make my jewelry with it!' I was thinking it was going to be this easy little rocky beach, but it is literally a rope going down to the water that you have to traverse as if you're rock climbing. We met this guy down there who was teaching us what to look for. There was a lot of quartz, and it was cool to be able to see that you could still go to these places and find the natural formations. It makes me have a greater appreciation of the stones I use and what goes into finding them."
A gorgeous, vivid field of poppies.
The Breakfast: "I think the best meal I had was at Big Sur Bakery. It was our last day, and no place was open for brunch anymore. We went to a gas station, and that's where the bakery is. They have these delicious homemade chocolate croissants, and the coffee is some of the best ever."
This is how tremendous the trip was.
The Back Road: "You usually take Highway One into Big Sur, but the day before we left, there had been a landslide. We had to take an alternate route from all the way inland that took another extra hour, but it actually turned out to be really cool because we came from the east, through the navy base and through the forest. All of the sudden, everything opened up and we were at the top of the mountain, and we could see down at the ocean. We felt like we were a mile up in the air, but we could touch the ocean."
One of the long-exposure light drawings.
The Overnight Spot: "We stayed at this place called Fernwood—it's a campground, but we stayed in a cabin. We made a campfire at night and did these light drawings—we got all crazy with the flashlight and camera. It became obsessive because we wanted to get our words just right."
The mind-blowing falls.
The Sight to See: "McWay Falls is a waterfall that goes out to the ocean. There used to be a house on the cliff, and I can't imagine living there and being able to look at that view every day. It's just so remote and beautiful."

Sophie Monet's Dangerous Tools
If you thought jewelry-making was a delicate craft—well, read on.
Sophie Monet Okulick's elegant wood-and-rock designs might be polished, but the process of making them is as dangerous and messy as it is intense. "I cut myself all the time—my hands are so messed up," she L.A.-based phenom explains. "But I just really like to work with my hands. Getting that end result is really satisfying and makes me feel so good." These are five of the awesome-scary tools she uses along the way.
"That's my dremel—it looks like fun, but it is a monster. I use that to carve out the settings in the rings and necklaces. I wear a mask because my face is so close to it, and it gets sawdust everywhere. It got stuck in my hair once—it was terrible. So now I have my rule: I always have to wear my hair up. I don't know why that wasn't the rule to begin with."
"I cut all my forms on the band saw. The blades break a lot—so that's a challenge—and you have to careful you don't get your fingers too close to it."
"The belt sander gets me the fine detail and the softness that I want the finished product to have. I experiment with it most often because you can change things the fastest. You can stand over a belt sander for an hour, making something smaller and smaller and smaller. When my friends come over and want to make something, I hand them a random scrap piece and let them go to work."
"I use an epoxy to attach the rocks. It's messy because if you use too much, it's difficult to clean up the edges. I try to wear gloves, but I a lot of times I have to use lacquer thinner to get it off my hands."
"The drill press is what I use when I make my rings, to make the hole for your finger. I pull it down and drill a clean circle into the wood. You really have to have a tight grip on everything."
See how Sophie put her woodshop to work for this amazing necklace.

and wallow in sadness
circles contain no answers
mathbooks burn alone at night
divide the earth in percentages
the fall of math
has come at last
we all evaporate into nothing
logic has abandoned humanity
if you cannot add things up
then you will be subtracted
scream into the darkness
scream with all your might
scream for the return of math
no-one answers but emptiness
nothing answers but pi
math has finally fallen. mourn

luciehmacias #312Commute: 2013 has been the year of odd jobs, but my main job takes me to the South Side. The Red Line curves right before reaching 47th and no matter what train I caught I would watch my bus leave as the train slowed down on that curve. Spring brought the shutdown and I had to catch the bus from the 47th Red/Green Line station. I would watch the bus leave as I ran down the stairs. Every. Single. Time. Then, the Red Line reopened in October. Not only are the trains faster, but I'm never running to catch a bus anymore! CTA, you may have botched the Ventra rollout, but on this chilly and snowy morning, I'm glad I only waited a couple of minutes for a bus.
