Bikini bottoms vary in style and cut and in the amount of coverage they offer, coverage ranging anywhere from complete underwear-style coverage, as in the case of more modest bottom pieces like briefs, shorts, or briefs with a small skirt-panel attached, to almost full exposure, as in the case of the thong bikini.
Some bikinis can offer a large amount of coverage, while other bikinis provide only the barest minimum.

Josh Kerrigan loves yachting and this love began at a very young age in Josh's life. Growing up in a part of Florida where boating is extremely prevalent, Josh's adolescence presented him with many opportunities to learn the ins and outs of yachting. From captaining, maintenance and repair, to fleet management, Joshua Kerrigan's lifelong passion for boats and yachting has afforded the young man access to valuable experience atvirtually all levels and in all areas of the yachting business.Even though what Josh really enjoyed about yachting at that time of his life was working hands-on with yachts, he recognized the importance of learning all that he could about the business side of yachting.

Two more SGA members resign
Two members of the Student Government Association resigned in the past week due to personal reasons.
Former Freshman Class Representative Kristina Skala and former Sophomore Class Representative Lauren Yaconis resigned from their positions with regrets and pardons.
The two new members, freshman Charles Doe and sophomore Nicole Siberry, were next in line as reserved candidates and replaced Skala and Yaconis.
Three SGA members resigned this winter, also for personal reasons.
"In the past few years there's always been students that drop, probably close to this number, maybe less," Bond said. "This has been a year where we've had a lo of turnover of new members.
"I don't think it's anything that we're doing per se, I think it's just the kind of the caliber of work that we're doing and the amount of responsibility that you have on student government that sometimes can be overbearing"
Yaconis was elected sophomore class representative last spring with 350 votes. Yaconis resigned for personal reasons that are out of her control, she said.
"My time spent in SGA has been my best time spent at Quinnipiac University," Yaconis said in an email. "I hope to stay involved with the organization in any way that my schedule allows, and in the future I would like to be given the opportunity to be a member of SGA again."
Skala could not be reached for comment.
The resigned members may run in the spring election if eligible to run under election policy, according to Bond.
Most of the resigned members intend to come back or stay involved with SGA in some way, according to Bond.
The new election for the new board will begin in a few weeks.

Caring By Caren
"My ideal client wants to live a life of self-fulfillment, happiness. She is ready to make changes, so she can listen to what her soul wants, and deliver that to herself with a feeling of hope and empowerment. She is ready to renew her creative soul spark. By the end of our sessions, she will be able to clearly see the talents, abilities and strengths in herself. I specialize in building up people who feel disappointed, hurt, or unworthy. I enjoy creating empowerment seminars for those who feel less than empowered.

"I assist people of all ages, abilities, and phases in life experiencing a challenge: depression, anxiety, loss, addiction, trauma, inadequate social or coping skills, terminal illnesses or may hope to take a new path. When words are inadequate to address feelings, thoughts, and desires, I offer art directives, materials and encourage clients to create an image. No artistic ability is required. The art process transforms energies that enlighten, empower, and transform. When appropriate to enhance self-discovery, I well provide an objective and thoughtful form of feedback. The art process and the client's life is the "masterpiece"!

"Being a parent is a joy like none other. This may however become challenging if your child (especially a teenager) battles emotional, behavioral, eating disorders, lack of confidence or addiction problems. Teenagers with these issues often argue, have hard time expressing emotions, have disruptive behavior, sudden change in eating habits and conscious of their body image. They might resort to use of alcohol or other drugs to escape struggles. This does not mean you are a bad parent; it is just a difficult time for your family. You just need someone to walk you through during this difficult time.

Difficulties in relationships, problems concerning work or recovering from bad experiences can be painful parts of life and talking about them can hasten change and improvement. As we develop a relationship with one another and reflect about the problems together, over time, I have found that people discover new ways of meeting the challenges that brought them to me.

Article: AKT promotes rRNA synthesis and cooperates with c-MYC to stimulate ribosome biogenesis in cancer.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Precise regulation of ribosome biogenesis is fundamental to maintain normal cell growth and proliferation, and accelerated ribosome biogenesis is associated with malignant transformation. Here, we show that the kinase AKT regulates ribosome biogenesis at multiple levels to promote ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis. Transcription elongation by RNA polymerase I, which synthesizes rRNA, required continuous AKT-dependent signaling, an effect independent of AKT's role in activating the translation-promoting complex mTORC1 (mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1). Sustained inhibition of AKT and mTORC1 cooperated to reduce rRNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis by additionally limiting RNA polymerase I loading and pre-rRNA processing. In the absence of growth factors, constitutively active AKT increased synthesis of rRNA, ribosome biogenesis, and cell growth. Furthermore, AKT cooperated with the transcription factor c-MYC to synergistically activate rRNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis, defining a network involving AKT, mTORC1, and c-MYC as a master controller of cell growth. Maximal activation of c-MYC-dependent rRNA synthesis in lymphoma cells required AKT activity. Moreover, inhibition of AKT-dependent rRNA transcription was associated with increased lymphoma cell death by apoptosis. These data indicate that decreased ribosome biogenesis is likely to be a fundamental component of the therapeutic response to AKT inhibitors in cancer.Science Signaling 08/2011; 4(188):ra56. · 7.65 Impact Factor
Article: Relative Expression Levels Rather Than Specific Activity Plays the Major Role in Determining In Vivo AKT Isoform Substrate Specificity.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The AKT protooncogene mediates many cellular processes involved in normal development and disease states such as cancer. The three structurally similar isoforms: AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3 exhibit both functional redundancy and isoform-specific functions; however the basis for their differential signalling remains unclear. Here we show that in vitro, purified AKT3 is ∼47-fold more active than AKT1 at phosphorylating peptide and protein substrates. Despite these marked variations in specific activity between the individual isoforms, a comprehensive analysis of phosphorylation of validated AKT substrates indicated only subtle differences in signalling via individual isoforms in vivo. Therefore, we hypothesise, at least in this model system, that relative tissue/cellular abundance, rather than specific activity, plays the dominant role in determining AKT substrate specificity in situ.Enzyme research. 01/2011; 2011:720985.
Article: Myeloid progenitor cells lacking p53 exhibit delayed up-regulation of Puma and prolonged survival after cytokine deprivation.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Loss of p53-dependent apoptosis contributes to the development of hematologic malignancies and failure to respond to treatment. Proapoptotic Bcl-2 family member Puma is essential for apoptosis in HoxB8-immortalized interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent myeloid cell lines (FDM cells) provoked by IL-3 deprivation. p53 and FoxO3a can transcriptionally regulate Puma. To investigate which transcriptional regulator is responsible for IL-3 deprivation-induced Puma expression and apoptosis, we generated wild-type (WT), p53(-/-), and FoxO3a(-/-) FDM cells and found that p53(-/-) but not FoxO3a(-/-) cells were protected against IL-3 withdrawal. Loss of p21(cip/waf), which is critical for p53-mediated cell-cycle arrest, afforded no protection against IL-3 deprivation. A survival advantage was also observed in untransformed p53(-/-) hematopoietic progenitor cells cultured in the presence or absence of cytokines. In response to IL-3 deprivation, increased Puma protein levels in p53(-/-) cells were substantially delayed compared with WT cells. Increased p53 transcriptional activity was detected after cytokine deprivation. This was substantially less than that induced by DNA damage and associated not with increased p53 protein levels but with loss of the p53 regulator, MDM2. Thus, we conclude that p53 protein is activated after IL-3 deprivation by loss of MDM2. Activated p53 transcriptionally up-regulates Puma, which initiates apoptosis.Blood 11/2009; 115(2):344-52. · 9.78 Impact Factor

Thanks for playing and reviewing the mission. I count on reviews to point out things I may have missed on my final playthrough. I see most of the suggestions are minor, easily fixable things that my eyes just didn't catch. Funny about the shuttle. The Galileo used to be an empty dialogue image, but that was repaired in the recent patching. I had to come up with something quick to replace it in all the player dialogues. Of course, I must have missed a couple. lol. I will revisit it and make the fixes. Again, thanks for playing. Glad you enjoyed it.

Bottom-up Approaches to Economic Development
| Peter Klein |
Via Michael Strong, a thoughtful review and critique of Western-style economic development programs and their focus on one-size-fits-all, "big idea" approaches. Writing in the New Republic, Michael Hobbs takes on not only Bono and Jeff Sachs and USAID and the usual suspects, but even the randomized-controlled-trials crowd, or "randomistas," like Duflo and Banerjee. Instead of searching for the big idea, thinking that "once we identify the correct one, we can simply unfurl it on the entire developing world like a picnic blanket," we should support local, incremental, experimental, attempts to improve social and economic well being — a Hayekian bottom-up approach.
We all understand that every ecosystem, each forest floor or coral reef, is the result of millions of interactions between its constituent parts, a balance of all the aggregated adaptations of plants and animals to their climate and each other. Adding a non-native species, or removing one that has always been there, changes these relationships in ways that are too intertwined and complicated to predict. . . .
[I]nternational development is just such an invasive species. Why Dertu doesn't have a vaccination clinic, why Kenyan schoolkids can't read, it's a combination of culture, politics, history, laws, infrastructure, individuals—all of a society's component parts, their harmony and their discord, working as one organism. Introducing something foreign into that system—millions in donor cash, dozens of trained personnel and equipment, U.N. Land Rovers—causes it to adapt in ways you can't predict.
Microeconomics of Central Banking

The Use of History in Management Research and Education
| Peter Klein |
Another book recommendation, also courtesy of EH.Net. The book is Organizations in Time: History, Theory, Methods (Oxford University Press, 2014), edited by Marcelo Bucheli and R. Daniel Wadhwani. (Bucheli is author of an excellent book on the United Fruit Company.) Organizations in Time is about of the use of history in management research and education. Perhaps surprisingly, the field of business history is not usually part of the business school curriculum. In the US at least, business historians are typically affiliated with history or economics departments, not management departments or other parts of the business school. EH.Net reviewer Andrew Smith notes the following:
Until the 1960s, economic history and business history had an important place in business school teaching and research. Many management scholars then decided to emulate research models developed in the hard sciences, which led to history becoming marginal in most business schools. History lost respect among positivistic management academics because historians made few broad theoretical claims, rarely discussed their research methodologies, and did not explicitly identify their independent and dependent variables. Historians in management schools became, effectively, disciplinary guests in their institutions.
The period from 2008 to the present has witnessed a revival of interest in history on the part of consumers of economic knowledge in a variety of academic disciplines, not to mention society as a whole. . . . It is now widely recognized that there needs to be more history in business school research and teaching. However, as Marcelo Bucheli and Dan Wadhwani note in the introductory essay, this apparent consensus obscures a lack of clarity about what a "historic turn" would, in practice, involve (p. 5).
This volume argues that the historic turn cannot simply be about going to the historical record to gather data points for the testing of various social-scientific theories, which is what scholars such as Reinhart and Rogoff do. Rather than being yet another device for allowing the quantitative social sciences to colonize the past, the historic turn should involve the adoption of historical methods by other management school academics. At the very least, people in the field of organization studies should borrow more tools from the historian's toolkit.
Read the book (or at least the review) to learn more about these tools and approaches, which involve psychology, embeddedness, path dependence, and other concepts familiar to O&M readers.
Competition in Early Telephone Networks
| Peter Klein |
As with other technologies involving network effects, the early telephone industry featured competing, geographically overlapping networks. Robert MacDougall provides a fascinating history of this period in The People's Network: The Political Economy of the Telephone in the Gilded Age (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2013). From the book blurb:
In the decades around 1900, ordinary citizens—farmers, doctors, small-town entrepreneurs—established tens of thousands of independent telephone systems, stringing their own wires to bring this new technology to the people. Managed by opportunists and idealists alike, these small businesses were motivated not only by profit but also by the promise of open communication as a weapon against monopoly capital and for protection of regional autonomy. As the Bell empire grew, independents fought fiercely to retain control of their local networks and companies—a struggle with an emerging corporate giant that has been almost entirely forgotten.
David Hochfelder wrote a thoughtful review which appeared today on EH.Net. As Hochfelder points out, the history of the telephone is not just about technology and market structure, but broader social themes as well:
At one level, this is a story about industrial competition. At a deeper level, it reveals competing visions of an important technology, the social role that it ought to play. MacDougall shows that the Bell System and the Independents envisioned the telephone in far different ways. Bell, especially under Theodore Vail, president of AT&T between 1907 and 1919, sought to build a unified telecommunications network that spanned the United States. Bell Canada espoused a different vision, that the telephone ought to remain an expensive urban medium primarily used for business purposes. Both Bell systems shared the ideology that the telephone industry ought to be controlled by centralized, national corporations. On the other hand, the Independents described the Bell System as a grasping octopus that wanted a stranglehold over the nation's communications. The Independents offered instead a vision of the telephone as a people's network that enhanced local ties and preserved community autonomy. In the United States, MacDougall claims that the Independents' vision for the telephone "descended from a civic understanding of communication that went back to the American Revolution," that "free and open communications were a basic ingredient of democracy" (p. 5). On a more mundane level, the Independents encouraged social uses of the telephone — like gossiping and banjo-playing — that the Bell System actively discouraged at the time.
Knowledge Elites, Inequality, and Economic Growth
| Peter Klein |
An interesting paper from Mara P. Squicciarini and Nico Voigtländer examines the role of "knowledge elites" — individuals at the upper tail of the human capital distribution* — in French economic growth around the time of the Industrial Revolution. Key passage:
To measure the historical presence of knowledge elites, we use city-level subscriptions to the famous Encyclopédie in mid-18th century France. We show that subscriber density is a strong predictor of city growth after 1750, but not before the onset of French industrialization. Alternative measures of development confirm this pattern: soldier height and industrial activity are strongly associated with subscriber density after, but not before, 1750. Literacy, on the other hand, does not predict growth. Finally, by joining data on British patents with a large French firm survey from 1837, we provide evidence for the mechanism: upper tail knowledge raised the productivity in innovative industrial technology.
In other words, growth is driven by the knowledge (and, presumably, skills, preferences, and beliefs) of the elites, not the population at large.
Squicciarini and Voigtländer don't deal directly with the distribution of income and wealth (they do show that regions with higher Encyclopédie subscriber density had higher per-capita incomes), presumably those individuals in the upper tail of the knowledge distribution were also one-percenters in income or wealth. This brings to mind one of Bertrand de Jouvenel's arguments about inequality, namely that it spurs technological innovation:
[I]t is a commonplace that things which are now provided inexpensively to the many, say spices or the newspaper, were originally luxuries which could be offered only because some few were willing and able to buy them at high prices. It is difficult to say what the economic development of the West would have been . . . if the productive effort had been aimed at providing more of the things needed by all, to the exclusion of a greater variety of things desired by minorities [i.e., elites]. . . . History shows us that each successive enlargement of the opportunities to consume was linked with unequal distribution of the means to consume.
I suspect Squicciarini and Voigtländer's knowledge elites were largely the same as de Jouvenel's "minorities" (in a robustness check for reverse causation, Squicciarini and Voightländer use membership in scientific societies as a proxy for knowledge elites, and these scientific societies were the primary producers and consumers of scientific instruments, for example). What would Monsieur Piketty say about this, I wonder?
* Caveats about human capital notwithstanding (1, 2).
The Paradox of the New Economic History
| Peter Klein |
MIT's Peter Temin on the "paradox of the New Economic History," from his keynote speech to the BETA-Workshop in Historical Economics (published as an NBER working paper):
New economic historians have turned their back on traditional historians and sought their place among economists. This has provided good jobs for many scholars, but the acceptance by economists is still incomplete. We therefore have two challenges ahead of ourselves. The first is to argue that economic development can only be fully understood if we understand the divergent histories of high-wage and low-wage economies. And the other big challenge is to translate our economic findings into historical lessons that historians will want to read. These challenges come from our place between economics and history, and both are important for the future of the New Economic History.
His broader claim is that the disciplines of economic history and economic development should be more closely integrated. "Both subfields study economic development; the difference is that economic history focuses on high-wage countries while economic development focuses on low-wage economies."
Corporate Governance in the 19th Century
| Peter Klein |
A new NBER paper on 19th-century manufacturing firms in Massachusetts finds that incorporation rates, ownership concentration, and and managerial ownership varied systematically with technology (factory versus artisanal production, use of unskilled labor, etc.). In other words, governance forms were not determined primarily by the legal or regulatory environment, social and cultural issues, the desire for legitimacy, or other noneconomic factors, but by standard agency considerations.
Corporate Governance and the Development of Manufacturing Enterprises in Nineteenth-Century Massachusetts
Eric Hilt
NBER Working Paper No. 20096, May 2014
This paper analyzes the use of the corporate form among nineteenth-century manufacturing firms in Massachusetts, from newly collected data from 1875. An analysis of incorporation rates across industries reveals that corporations were formed at higher rates among industries in which firm size was larger. But conditional on firm size, the industries in which production was conducted in factories, rather than artisanal shops, saw more frequent use of the corporate form. On average, the ownership of the corporations was quite concentrated, with the directors holding 45 percent of the shares. However, the corporations whose shares were quoted on the Boston Stock Exchange were 'widely held' at rates comparable to modern American public companies. The production methods utilized in in different industries also influenced firms' ownership structures. In many early factories, steam power was combined with unskilled labor, and managers likely performed a complex supervisory role that was critical to the success of the firm. Consistent with the notion that monitoring management was especially important among such firms, corporations in industries that made greater use of steam power and unskilled labor had more concentrated ownership, higher levels of managerial ownership, and smaller boards of directors.

Celebrate Thanksgiving with Blonde Redhead
Indie trio brings Barragan to NYC's Bowery Ballroom on Nov. 25th and 26th
She does nothing all day
But sit down and cry
She touches the sky
And wishes to play
—"The One I Love" by Blonde Redhead
Image: Marlene Marino
New-York based Blonde Redhead fans, and those returning to New York City for turkey day, are in for a pre-holiday treat when the local indie dream pop trio perform two shows at the Bowery Ballroom. Japanese vocalist/rhythm guitarist Kazu Makino and Italian/Canadian twin brothers—guitarist Amedeo and drummer Simone Pace—have been making music together for 21 years. It seems like just yesterday that art student Makino randomly met the Pace brothers at an Italian restaurant in New York City. More of a noise rock band in the beginning, the band caught the attention of Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley and he produced Blonde Redhead's self-titled debut in 1995.
The last decade has seen the trio go a quieter, but just as experimental, route. While 2010's dreamy Penny Sparkle was more electronic and synth-based, Blonde Redhead's latest album, Barragan, was recorded live in the studio with analog paraphernalia for a more stripped down sound. Barragan is the Spanish word for warrior or brave young man, but Makino said they got the title elsewhere: "I didn't know that was the meaning, but we got the inspiration from the Mexican architect Luis Barragan." The Modernist architect, known for his clean lines and use of raw materials, was also interested in color, emotion and serenity so one can see how his work inspired the trio's latest effort, which was recorded with producer Drew Brown (Radiohead, Beck). Barragan would likely have appreciated the acoustic, flute-laden title track and stand-outs like the quirky "Cat on Tin Roof," the shoegaze-y "No More Honey" and the propulsive "Dripping": "I saw you dripping sunlight/ I saw you dripping moonlight."
Let yourself be inspired by the creative sounds of Blonde Redhead at the Bowery Ballroom before meeting up with the relatives on Thursday.
"We'll be playing most of the songs from Barragan except one or two," said Makino. "The rest are a mix from from our other albums—for some reason, we are not able to play covers."
What: Blonde Redhead—live
Where: Bowery Ballroom in NYC
When: Tuesday, November 25th AND Wednesday, November 26th, 9pm

Suzanne Vega plays Westhampton Beach Performing Arts
Folk songstress brings Tales from the Realm of the Queen of Pentacles to New York
I never wear white
White is for virgins
Children in summer
Brides in the park.
My color is black black black
Black is for secrets
Outlaws and dancers
For the poet of the dark.
—Suzanne Vega
It's been 27 years since singer/songwriter Suzanne Vega released the a cappella "Tom's Diner," which was named after NYC's Tom's Restaurant on W 112th Street and Broadway. (Shots of Tom's Restaurant were also used to represent Monk's, the diner where Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer gnoshed on Seinfeld). Since the British dance duo DNA successfully remixed "Tom's Diner" in 1990 (one of Vega's most commercially successful songs along with "Luka" and "Marlene on the Wall"), numerous musicians have sampled the song. And it can be heard on Fall Out Boy's latest single, "Centuries."
"There have been so many samples," admits Vega, who recently joined Fall Out Boy in a performance of "Centuries" on Ellen. "I really like Nikki D's 'Daddy's Little Girl,' Fall Out Boy, Michigan & Smiley and Danger Mouse's versions."
On her first album of original music in seven years, Tales from the Realm of the Queen of Pentacles,Vega actually samples 50 Cent's "Candy Shop" and makes reference to Macklemore's "Thrift Shop" on "Don't Uncork What You Can't Contain." Produced by David Bowie's former musical director Gerry Leonard, The Queen is quintessential Vega with a few more guitars thrown in with the help of former Bob Dylan sideman Larry Campbell, Peter Gabriel and King Crimson bassist Tony Levin.
One of the dark poetess's more rockin' songs is the semi-autobiographical "I Never Wear White." And while she admits to wearing white from time to time—like when she got married—the woman with the penchant for dark-colored suits really does prefer black.
"'I Never Wear White' is a juicy song that I can really get into performing," said Vega, who studied modern dance as a teenager. "I also like performing 'Don't Uncork What You Can't Contain' because it's a lot of fun."
While the folk songstress was influenced by artists like Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, The Beatles and Laura Nyro, Vega is looking forward to hearing the new albums by Taylor Swift and Lucinda Williams. More music from Vega and a book could also be on the horizon.
"There could be more music at the end of 2015," said Vega. "I've been listening to a lot of Bob Dylan and revisiting all of Fall Out Boy's back catalog. I also love Cibo Matto's new album—great stuff!"
What: Suzanne Vega live– her distinct voice is smoother than ever
Where: Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center
When: Saturday, November 1st, 8pm
For more info: www.whbpac.org/pages/event_detail.php?event_id=812
Vega will also be playing at Joe's Pub in NYC on November 14th with shows at 7:30pm and 9:30pm, and on November 15th with shows at 7:30pm and 9:30pm
The Great Garden City Pumpkin Patch
Head to UUCCN for pumpkins and baked goods throughout the month of October
Linus: Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere. He's gotta pick this one. He's got to. I don't see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there's not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see…
Let the Pumpkin Scarecrow lead the way when heading to the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Central Nassau (UUCCN) at the corner of Nassau Boulevard and Stewart Avenue. Throughout the month of October, the grounds will be covered with pumpkins from the Navajo reservation in New Mexico, which tend to last longer than those grown in the eastern United States. The sale is open daily from 11am to 7pm through Halloween on October 31st.
Close to 6,000 pumpkins in various shapes and sizes were delivered, as well as some variety pumpkins, gourds and decorative corn. Bring friends and family and enjoy some of the congregation's homemade baked goods available for purchase—including homemade apple pies available on Sundays baked fresh from the oven! Admission is FREE and you are welcome to take pictures and wander through the patch in search of your Great Pumpkin…
Happy Halloween! For more info head to: https://www.facebook.com/UUCCN/timeline?ref=page_internal

Experience Sharon Van Etten at The New Yorker Festival
Conversations with Music in October at the Sheen Center on Bleecker Street
Turn on the charm
Call to response now
Sitting on the porch
Looking for a way out
—From "Taking Chances" by Sharon Van Etten
Sharon Van Etten's voice can be as powerful as that of Kristin Hersh or Fiona Apple, and as whisper-soft as Chan Marshall or Suzanne Vega. And the New Jersey-bred singer/songwriter's lyrics are as candid and emotionally heavy as the lot. Van Etten's latest cd, Are We There, is her heaviest one yet. When discussing the record with Fred Armisen, Van Etten said it basically chronicled the last two years of her Tramp tour:
"It's about things I've been working through—trying to have a career but also trying to have a home life and relationship," said Van Etten, who lives in NYC. "And you know, in the end, I had to choose my work over having a relationship because the person I was with couldn't handle it. It was someone that I loved very deeply, but it just plays on people's insecurities when you're in a place that they're not. And that's kinda what the whole record's about."
The indie-folk songstress has worked with The National's Aaron Dessner and collaborated with the likes of J Mascis and Nick Cave. Covering Van Etten's "Every Time the Sun Comes Up" brought Tim Presley of the band White Fence to tears.
In addition to Van Etten's interview and performance on October 11th, The New Yorker Festival, which takes place the weekend of October 10th-12th, includes appearances by Neil Young, Malcolm Gladwell, Randy Newman, Imagine Dragons, Juliana Margulies, Laurie Anderson and Larry David, among others.
What: Conversations with Music: Sharon Van Etten talks with Sasha Frere-Jones about lyrical honesty.
She will also be performing solo during the 90-minute presentation at The New Yorker Festival.
Where: Sheen Center for Thought and Culture, 18 Bleecker Street, NYC
When: Saturday, October 11th, 7pm
Cost: $40

OFF THE WALLS Block Party Saturday
Five hours of live music, dancing, food and art in Huntington Station
The Huntington Arts Council-affiliated SPARKBOOM initiative presents OFF THE WALLS II, a block party/street fair on Saturday from 1-6pm. After the success of last year's event, SPARKBOOM has decided to rock the Huntington Station block again with free live performances from local bands like Nonstop to Cairo, Motion Ocean, Slang, KB Jones & The Kontraband and Jarred "AllStar."
At 1520 New York Avenue (Mt. Calvary Holy Church of Huntington) you can also find Latin dancing presented by Sol y Sombra Spanish Dance Company: salsa, Argentine tangos and rumbas. There will also be a free BMX stunt show at the festival, and Mt. Calvary will be barbecuing food with proceeds going to the church.
But let's not forget the art! 'Off the Walls' is named for street art and Lucienne Pereira will be painting an interactive mural at Huntington Deli. The 30 plus art vendors include handmade jewelry by Ali Herrmann, Deborah Porretto and Donna Saladino-Irvine, and photography by Kristen Vetter.
A Long Island native, Vetter has a BFA in Fine Arts, Psychology and Photography and her most recent work focuses on "the varied perceptions within an environment" based on her travels to Israel, Egypt and Jordan:
"My series of photographs, captured in an area synonymous with conflict, are full of contrasting elements: beauty, devastation, and the mundane," said Vetter. "I document architecture and people within their environments. I then manipulate each image by hand with drawing, painting, printmaking, and sculpture to emphasize aspects of growth, change, and transition. The images that are created from this process emphasize empathy, and careful looking to offer clues to our common ancestry, common daily practices and struggles."
Vetter will be selling some pieces like the enigmatic 'Contemplation,' a long exposure digitally taken "to emphasize the little nuances that we go through during bursts of emotion."
'Contemplation' by Kristen Vetter

20 Something, 20 Everything
A Quarter-life Woman's Guide to Balance and Direction
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreThe midtwenties through the midthirties can be a time of difficult transition: the security blankets of college and parents are gone, and it's suddenly time to make far-reaching decisions about career, investments, and adult identity. When author Christine Hassler experienced what she calls the "twenties triangle", she found that she was not alone. In fact, an entire generation of young women is questioning their choices, unsure if what they've been striving for is what they really want. They're eager to set a new course for their lives, even if that means giving up what they have. Hassler herself left a fast-moving career that wasn't right for her and instead took the risk of starting her own business. Now, based on her own experience and interviews with hundreds of women, she shares heartfelt stories on issues from career to parents to boyfriends to babies. Yet she also provides practical exercises to enable today's woman to chart a new direction for her life. less
