Joffrey Ballet Announces 2013-14 Season
Ashley C. Wheater, Artistic Director of The Joffrey Ballet, announces the company's 2013-2014 season, titled "Masters of Dance." The season kicks off with a special addition to the Joffrey's home engagement line-up, a one-weekend-only program titled "Russian Masters" celebrating the centennial of Vaslav Nijinsky's ground-breaking 1913 ballet Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rite of Spring), along with George Balanchine's Allegro Brilliante and the return of Yuri Possokhov's Bells, September 19 - 22, 2013.
The season continues with the Joffrey's annual fall engagement, featuring the Company Premiere of Stanton Welch's new evening-length staging of the exotic, Indian-set La Bayadère, October 16 - 27, 2013, before continuing with the holiday classic, Robert Joffrey's The Nutcracker, December 6 - 27, 2013. For its winter program, the Joffrey presents a modern mixed repertory program, "Contemporary Choreographers," featuring the Company Premiere of Christopher Wheeldon's Continuum and the Chicago Premiere of Crossing Ashland by Chicago choreographer Brock Clawson, February 12 - 23, 2014. The spring program closes the "Masters of Dance" season with the U.S. Premiere of a contemporary, multi-media Romeo & Juliet choreographed by Krzysztof Pastor, April 30 - May 11, 2014.
All performances take place in the Joffrey's home venue, the historic Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University, in downtown Chicago at 50 East Congress Parkway. The season features live orchestral accompaniment by the Chicago Philharmonic conducted by Scott Speck, Music Director of The Joffrey Ballet.
"Next season promises to be very special," said Wheater. "The programming is compelling. Our dancers are performing at the pinnacle of their art form. At its heart, though, dance thrives when it is shared. From the power of Russian music and dance to the splendor of La Bayadère, from contemporary masterpieces to a timeless Romeo & Juliet, we invite our audience to experience this season of beautiful dancing."
"The 2013-2014 season is global and comprehensive, encompassing a wide range of cultures and voices," added Joffrey Executive Director Christopher Clinton Conway. "The season's diversity echoes that of the company, Academy and history of The Joffrey Ballet. The Joffrey is a national leader in defining and creating contemporary ballet, in the vanguard of the major changes that the art form is undergoing. Our company is distinctive and capable of anything that comes its way."

Colby O'Donis - I Wanna Touch You
Artist: Colby O'Donis
Producer: Red One
Album: Untitled Sophomore Album
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 58 votes )
Over the course of the past year, Colby O'Donis' career has seen its share of peaks and valleys; despite the overwhelming success of lead single What You Got, Colby O peaked at an underwhelming #41 on the Billboard 200 Albums Chart. Just as many were beginning to write him off, though, O'Donis' guest appearances on Lady Gaga's worldwide smash, Just Dance, and his boss, Akon's successful single, Beautiful, provided proof that the singer wasn't about to fall by the wayside. In fact, he's already getting started on his sophomore LP. New single I Wanna Touch You finds Colby O struggling to maintain self-control as he eyes a lady he knows is already taken. Complete with a keyboard-synth instrumental by KonLive in-house producer Red One, I Wanna Touch You has potential to be as successful a summer jam as What You Got was in '08. Will O'Donis' proven formula yield another hit? We'll have to wait until the single's Memorial Day release to know for sure.

In twenty to twenty-five years his habit becomes so solid that now he can't give up the habit of renouncing. The habit hangs around his neck like a rock. He continues to find ways and means - what to drop next? - and his ladder goes on rising. He begins to try to figure out whether to drop food, water, salt, butter, sugar, whatever. He goes on playing with ideas as to what he should renounce next - whether he should give up sleep, or stop bathing. He is continuously looking for ways to renounce things. Ultimately he even arrives at a point where he talks of giving up his life, begins to think in terms of committing suicide. He gets ready to do santhara, the religious practice of embracing death voluntarily.
One who renounces and one who clings are of the same kind. One is holding on to the ladder meant for renouncing things, while the other has seized upon the ladder meant for latching on to things. But none of them is willing to get off the ladder. And in my view, truth lies where ladders cease to exist and you land on plain ground, where there is no longer the need to climb up or down. Truth lies where you drop your attachment, where you drop your conditions, where you stop seeing things through your conditioned mind, where you begin to perceive things with a mind free of all conditioning - that's where the truth lies.
Perhaps that's precisely what Jesus means.. When Jesus was asked who would inherit the truth, he replied, "Those who are like children." Now what can this mean, "like children"? What it means is: the one who looks at things without any preconditioning. You will be amazed if you watch how children look at things. There is a difference between how we see things and how children do. When we see, we are looking at something, we are looking for something, while a child just looks. He doesn't look for something in particular; his eyes simply move. Whatsoever is, whatsoever is visible, he just looks at it. He is not attached to seeing a particular thing. He is not fixed on the idea that what he sees should only appear in a particular way. He sees whatsoever there is. To put it rightly, his seeing is purposeless.
A child does not look with a purpose. That's why in the eyes of an adult you don't see the innocence you see in the eyes of a child. An adult sees things with a reason. If you have money in your pocket, he looks at you in a particular way; if your pocket is empty, he looks at you differently. If you happen to be beautiful, the man has a look of one kind; if you are not beautiful, he has a different look in his eyes. He looks at you in a special way if he is interested in you; otherwise he looks differently, or doesn't look at you at all. His seeing has purpose. For an adult even the simple act of looking is not without purpose.
When a purpose enters your view, a rope begins to look like a snake; the rope ceases to exist. Actually, just reflect, if you will, as to why a rope appears to someone like a snake. It is simply his projection - the man is scared. There is fear in his look. That means, whenever he looks at things, he looks out of fear. He is walking down the street in the dark, and there is fear in his eyes. He spots something lying on the road, it looks like something is moving. He immediately believes it to be a snake, because he is looking out of fear. He is guided by a purpose, he is looking through his unconscious mind to see if there is any snake on the street - and that makes him see a snake instead of a rope.

'Cries for Help' in Deciphering Regulatory Changes
People inside and outside the health plan community are still trying to figure out what CMS is likely to do when the agency sets the final Medicare fee-for-service and Medicare Advantage payment rates early next month. I was among the horde of health plan executives, analysts, and journalists under orders to decipher the CMS guidance on Medicare payments.
The agency released its guidance document just before 5 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 21. When I called a government affairs executive at one of the large health plans on Monday, Feb. 24, she said her staff "had been working all weekend" to understand the regulators' intent, but they still had more work to do before they could offer a comment.
Whether you have been working in the private sector for decades or are finishing Economics 101 in college, this level of complexity and uncertainty should send shivers down your spine. My spine variously tingled and contorted over the several days it took to get a handle on CMS' Medicare payment document.
To get a handle on the crushing complexity flowing from reform efforts in the healthcare industry, let the wisdom of the free market be your guide.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Bruce Landes (3/20/2014 at 10:15 PM)
In the Federalist #62 James Madison wrote, in 1788: The internal effects of a mutable policy are still more calamitous. It poisons the blessing of liberty itself. It will be of little avail to the people, that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man, who knows what the law is to-day, can guess what it will be to-morrow. Law is defined to be a rule of action; but how can that be a rule, which is little known, and less fixed? Another effect of public instability is the unreasonable advantage it gives to the sagacious, the enterprising, and the moneyed few over the industrious and uniformed mass of the people. Every new regulation concerning commerce or revenue, or in any way affecting the value of the different species of property, presents a new harvest to those who watch the change, and can trace its consequences; a harvest, reared not by themselves, but by the toils and cares of the great body of their fellow-citizens. This is a state of things in which it may be said with some truth that laws are made for the few, not for the many. In another point of view, great injury results from an unstable government. The want of confidence in the public councils damps every useful undertaking, the success and profit of which may depend on a continuance of existing arrangements. What prudent merchant will hazard his fortunes in any new branch of commerce when he knows not but that his plans may be rendered unlawful before they can be [INVALID]d? What farmer or manufacturer will lay himself out for the encouragement given to any particular cultivation or establishment, when he can have no assurance that his preparatory labors and advances will not render him a victim to an inconstant government? In a word, no great improvement or laudable enterprise can go forward which requires the auspices of a steady system of national policy. But the most deplorable effect of all is that diminution of attachment and reverence which steals into the hearts of the people, towards a political system which betrays so many marks of infirmity, and disappoints so many of their flattering hopes. No government, any more than an individual, will long be respected without being truly respectable; nor be truly respectable, without possessing a certain portion of order and stability.

Your Memory is Wiped
A study in Sleep found that people's accuracy on working-memory tasks dropped by about 15 percent while they pulled an all-nighter. Sleep helps your brain consolidate information, so without that recovery time, you're unable to file away important data.
(Get more useful stuff like this worth filing in the memory bank by signing up for the Men's Health Daily Dose!)
Your Waistline Expands
"Some research has suggested that sleep restriction over many years may affect metabolism, increasing the risk of obesity and type-2 diabetes," says Siobhan Banks, Ph.D., an assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania. In fact, a 2007 Canadian study found that people who sleep only 5 or 6 hours a night increase their likelihood of being overweight by 69 percent, compared with those who habitually sleep 7 or 8 hours.
You Get Sicker
University of Chicago researchers found that antibodies in sleep-deprived people who'd received a vaccine were about 50 percent weaker than those in well-rested people. Wake up early for that flu shot and it may not protect you so well. Harvard researchers also found that blood levels of C-reactive protein, a marker of heart-disease risk, can spike if you skip the sheets for just a few hours.
Your Cancer Risk Rises
During sleep your body produces melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate your sleep cycle. Interrupt sleep and you interrupt melatonin synthesis, which can be a problem. A 2007 University of Texas study review concluded that not only does melatonin detoxify harmful, cancer-causing free radicals, but in doing so it actually creates more antioxidants. Melatonin may also boost the effectiveness of vitamin C, another antioxidant. A good snooze could goose your morning OJ's potency.

text: 27 May 2011 Going Meatless for Mammals Posted by: Caitlin Leutwiler | 1 comment | Share: Not to be outdone by our other video submission, this Red Hot and Green features a submission by yours truly! My friend John and I are going meatless for marmots and manatees! Livestock farming generates 18% of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions (compared to only 13% for all of the world's cars, trains, planes and boats combined!) so eating less meat can make a big difference in an individual's carbon footprint. And emissions aren't the only way farm animals contribute to climate change- much of livestock's contribution to a warming world comes from deforestation, as the growing demand for meat results in trees being cut down to make space for pasture or farmland to grow animal feed. Photo courtesy Jim Reid/USFWS Marmots and manatees may be two very different animals, but they've got one thing in common: their survival is being threatened by climate change. Alaska marmots live at ground zero for climate change impacts. Because of the small window hibernation allows for feeding and breeding, and its dependence on sensitive alpine tundra, shifting temperatures pose a great risk to the large rodent. At the opposite end of the states – water-dwelling manatees are in trouble as well. Higher water temperatures along the Gulf Coast has lead to an increase in toxic algae blooms, such as the red tide that killed more than 150 manatees in 1996. Climate change also raises the odds against these already endangered creatures by increasing the likelihood of larger and more frequent hurricanes. Even if you don't decide to go completely vegetarian like John and me, just forgoing meat a few times a week (Meatless Mondays, anyone?) can make a big difference in reducing emission and protecting important habitat! What are the other ways you're working to fight the climate change that threatens our wildlife and natural places? We want to know! Read these simple instructions and tell us what YOU'RE doing to protect wildlife from the harmful effects of climate change. One Response to "Going Meatless for Mammals" Sarah May 28th, 2011 I think eating less meat or going completely meatless is a great idea, especially for us animal lovers. It does not only help with climate change but also saves animals lives. Thinks all the chicken, beef, trukey, pork, etc we eat on a weekly basis adds up in pounds so in reality by the end of one month we basically eat a whole pig or cow, and definatly chickens and trukeys!! I'm going meatless to save the livestock as an animal lover and to help the planet. Reply Post Your Comment Click here to cancel reply.

Pre-Black Friday Sale: Extra 20% Off Sale & MBT Styles! — SHOP NOW —
Anuschka™ was formed back in 1984 when Roma and Swapan Basu began designing hand painted bags. In 2000, their son, Bhaskar created the Basu Group, which started selling its first Anuschka™ handbags in the United States. As the company became more successful, the Basu family expanded their designs to include bold patterns and colors, and these designs typically are inspired by fashion trends as well as nature.
All Anuschka™ bags are created in a small, family owned and run workshop by over 75 highly skilled artisans. Each one-of-a-kind bag is hand painted, and inspected and signed by one of the Basu family members. The Basu family believes in fostering the local economy by training artisans in their area to create these beautiful and functional bags.
Each Anuschka™ bag is hand painted on high quality cowhide. With the inherent uniqueness of each handcrafted bag, these bags can be considered distinctive works of art. Additionally, each bag contains intricate details in the functionality of each bag as well as the appearance. Many bags contain different sized compartments and pockets, adjustable shoulder straps, and even key fobs. Even custom-made hardware brings these bags to a high level of luxury.

"I would be remiss if I didn't write to tell you how delighted I have been with my Footwear etc. shopping experience. I recently purchased a pair of MBT Shoes via your website (at a great price, I might say), and then read a review that suggested buying them a 1/2 size larger than my usual size. I didn't want to wait until I received the shoes to try them on and decide, because the discounted shoes were limited. I went ahead and ordered the larger size too so I could keep the pair that fit the best. Gosh, you made the return process so easy! Even if I were paying the shipping, your rates are so reasonable that I wouldn't complain a bit. You're the kind of company that has made great use of technology. Your site is easy to use, and your approach to customer service makes me think that there's still hope in this world of ever-declining attitudes toward the customer. Keep up the good work. I'll be back. "

Originally written on A Glam Slam | Last updated 11/16/14
A quarterfinals exit kept Serena Williams from winning the first Grand Slam of the tennis season, but she did score a new endorsement gig down under. The tennis star signed on as an ambassador for Australian underwear brand, Berlei. She shot a promotional campaign for the company while in Melbourne. Williams has long been a fan of Berlei's sports bras and credits her mother with introducing her to the company. She told The Telegraph: "Every time I've played a match in the last eight years it's always been in a Berlei. Every time I'd come to Australia I'd buy new ones and wear them for years, and I'd even send them to Nike and they'd dye them so they matched my outfits," the 14DD tennis star said. "But now I have a hook-up." "It's good for real women that want to work out with larger breasts because you have a lot of support, or with smaller breasts its good too because you don't want them to fall, so it really is the first bra I've seen that's made for real breasts – small, big, medium – it doesn't matter." The campaign has Serena modeling a purple bra and skirt, a perfect match for the Nike ensemble she wore throughout the Australian Open. Check it out:

Apple releases MacBook Pro hard drive firmware updateA new firmware fix for some MacBook Pro hard drives aims to stop random noises, perhaps bringing relief to some who have been plagued by clicking and beeping internal drives.
Hard Drive Firmware Update 2.0 was released Wednesday for some 7200rpm drives. It is intended for June 2009 model MacBook Pro systems. The 3.71MB update requires Mac OS X 10.5.7 and will update the drive firmware to 0007APM2. It can be downloaded direct from Apple.
Apple says the update "reduces certain infrequent noises" made by the drives. Last week, the Mac maker officially acknowledged noisy hard drives that have been plaguing some MacBook Pro owners for months. Prior to the public confirmation, some AppleCare representatives had told individual customers that the company was working on a fix.
The issue became impossible not to acknowledge after a thread hundreds of posts long over at the Apple Support forums developed. In that discussion, countless users have complained that their 7,200RPM hard drives will randomly click and beep, and some have experienced slower access times. The issue appears to have grown since it was first reported in January.
Some have speculated the issue may have arisen from Seagate Momentus 7200.4 G-Force hard drives. Specifically, the problem is believed to have occurred from the drive's protection system, which may be incompatible with Mac hardware. In addition, the G-Force technology is not needed on the MacBook Pro, which has pre-existing anti-shock protection.
