¿5% parry?
Well, I'd hoped I'd have more time to test this, but as luck would have it, soon after speccing this way I found my druid (resto / boom) more in demand, and work got kinda busy as well, so have hardly had a chance to play around with it.
I think I've done one full 25 man run of Naxx (primarily as an OT) so it's hardly sufficient enough to come to any kind of conclusion.
That said...
I am currently running with this spec: The World of Warcraft Armory and so far I quite like it. I'm also glyphed for cleave, so it hits 3 targets. I haven't seen any noticeable difference in OVERALL DPS (i.e. at the end of Naxx 25, I'm still bottom of the DPS meter, with somewhere around the same average DPS), so my gut feeling is that my DPS is lower on single targets, higher on trash, and so it evens out somewhere in the middle.
Has anyone else tried a spec similar to this, and if so, do you have any thoughts on the matter? My current frame of mind is 'keep trying it out and see if I see a downside'.
I would be somewhat hesitant to tank someone like Malygos with this, but most other fights I haven't seemed to have any problems.
The one thing I've noticed (and is a bit annoying) is that, when I tab target something and it targets something across the room (or at least out of melee range) my cleave fails to activate (because there is no melee swing). This is really only common sense, as HS does this too, but I guess part of my subconscious brain equates cleave to be more like thunderclap than HS - but this is just mental conditioning I suppose.
Bit of a random, rambling post, but do let me know if any of you have tried this build recently as I'm quite interested to see what my peers think.
p.s. I would give my right nut in exchange for target dummies that actually let us test our DPS
¿5% parry?
I have been using a similar spec...
The down side is rage starvation.
This spec almost requires BoS.
Cleave lacks the cost reduction HS gets, it lacks the rage return from a glyph, and the revenge glyph has no effect on it.
That aside, I have done enough multi target threat with cleave (and other attacks) to pull multiple mobs from a Pally tank.
I have MT all of 10 man Naxx with this spec and held threat on Malygos (not using cleave but still speced).
Depending on the impact 3.1 has on rage, it will more than likely change the viability of this spec.
The question you have to ask yourself when pondering a spec like this is, "What am I tanking?" If all you ever do is tank trash, this spec and its many off-shoots are just fine. Trash doesn't hit very hard, doesn't live very long, and you can hold much of it without concern. The problem is that these types of trash-centric, gimmick specs severely cripple both your survivability and threat/dps output where it really matters: boss fights.
What you are gaining on the way to the boss is inconsequential compared what you are losing while tanking the boss. You have traded 5% total avoidance (not avoidance after DR) for the ability to hit an extra target a little harder in packs of trash. Once you get to the boss, you are being hit 5% more often, applying less single-target threat because you can't heroic strike as much, have lost 10% crit damage on all of your threat-producing abilities, and close to 10% overall dps on the boss just from not having Deep Wounds. Also consider the major glyph you traded to be able to hit that extra mob with your cleave.
TL;DR - Spec for bosses, not for trash.
Interesting, thanks for your thoughts.
I am guessing the decision I have before me is - when dual specs are here - do I go for trash spec + boss spec, or DPS spec + boss spec

Reasonble and quiet restaurant near Fishermens Wharf
Hi all,
I'm looking for a restaurant in the vicinity of Fishermens Wharf for a business dinner. We're not looking to break the bank. Hopefully someplace that is semi-reasonable.
But also important is that I need a restaurant that is relatively quiet. That's sometimes hard to find in a touristy area.
Any suggestions?
As I recall, Albona's pretty quiet. Prices are definitely reasonable. Use the search to find numerous reports.
You say you want a "quiet" restaurant, a "reasonable" restaurant. But I assume you also want a restaurant that serves really good food. That's what we're really all about here. If so, I just want to take this opportunity to nominate your's as THE single saddest recurring request which appears, (all too often) here on the SF board.
Now that I've gotten that off my chest, somebody very recently responed to your classic Fisherman's Wharf plea with a sort of weak recommendation for Ana Mandera (upscale Vietnamese). But, as I've never been there, I can't vouch for it.
Why don't you just take a taxi to a REALLY good restaurant in another neighborhood? Really, there are a million taxis in San Francisco. Go ahead, ask us about that and we'll suggest some place you'll get a wonderful meal.
I'm serious.
re: niki rothman
Note that the OP is asking for a BUSINESS meal. Taking a cab isn't always practical or even an option in that instance, for a variety of reasons.
Ana Mandara IS good and about what the doctor ordered, but I heartily endorse Ms Rothman's post as the ultimate sound advice in a town like this...
re: dis1010
Unless you go on a weekend Ana Mandara (upscale Vietnamese) is quiet. On the weekend they have live music. For under $25 in the entree Alioto's is quiet and the fish is good. Very nice creme brulee for dessert. It is not amazing food but The Mandarin is quite and nice. There have been mentions that the peking duck is good.
I think Albona fails the price-perf test [one day, I'll
get around to my Anti-Albona Rant], although it's certainly
pretty quiet.
How about WASHBAG [washington sq bar and grill] or the
Moose operation. I dont recall how loud Moose is ... both
a <10min walk up C'bus from FWharf.
I personally dont consider WASHBAG loud but it's not sepulchral.
This is a hard one. The one time I had to have a business dinner in the Wharf area, we went to McCormick & Kuleto's in Ghirardelli Square. It was quiet and we got a big table and were able to spread our papers out. I've only been to Ana Mandara once, I wasn't impressed with the food and wouldn't go back for the price. It is also a bit dark, so it depends on whether you will need to look at papers or not during your meal. Sounds as if food is secondary to location, so I'd think about McCormick & Kuleto's. Good luck!

Curriculum Vitae
Lindisfarne Fellows
The Lindisfarne Chapel
William Irwin Thompson World Wide Website
The Lindisfarne Association
In 1972, Thompson founded the Lindisfarne Association as an alternative way for the humanities to develop in a scientific and technical civilization. Lindisfarne became an association of scientists, artists, scholars, and contemplatives devoted to the study and realization of a new planetary culture. Lindisfarne began its activities in Southampton, New York in 1973, moved to Manhattan in 1976, and, finally, to Crestone, Colorado in 1979 where today the Lindisfarne Fellows House, the Lindisfarne Chapel, and the Lindisfarne Mountain Retreat are under the ownership and management of the Crestone Mountain Zen Center.(
) In 1997, Thompson retired from the presidency of the Lindisfarne Association; in 2009 the Lindisfarne Association disbanded as a formal not-for-profit organization. The Lindisfarne Fellows, however, voted to continue their fellowship as an informal association of creative individuals interested in one another's work, and Thompson still meets with the Lindisfarne Fellows for their annual meeting at varying locations.

Dear Candidates of the 2014 European Election
12 May 14
Dear Candidates,
The upcoming European elections come at a crucial time in terms of planning for our future. The current crisis is not simply financial, but far more complex. It begs for a paradigm shift, one that must start with restoring the centrality and value of food.
In order to respond to this crisis, Slow Food wants to see a Common Sustainable Food Policy in Europe. This policy must:
- take a holistic approach to the food system
- strive for a transition towards a system of production, distribution and consumption of food that is good(reflecting health, culture and the tastes of local communities), clean (respectful of the environment) and fair(mindful of the rights of those who cultivate, raise and produce food products, as well as of those who purchase and consume)
- be based on the preservation of biodiversity (plant varieties, native livestock breeds, artisan foods) and on the role of small-scale producers and consumers
- put in practice these same principles in all negotiations and relations with other countries (e.g. TTIP)
Slow Food asks you to promote a Common Sustainable Food Policy by making a concrete commitment to the following themes:
• Secure fair access to sustainably produced and healthy food for all, in particular vulnerable groups.
• Simplify EU hygiene rules and apply exemptions, in order to safeguard and promote small-scale traditional products that are marketed locally or sold directly. These products risk extinction due to standardized bureaucratic and hygiene regulations that do not differentiate between agroindustry and small-scale artisanal production.
• Promote mandatory origin labelling for all unprocessed meat and other products like milk, unprocessed foods and meat used as an ingredient
• Allow the addition of the following information to what is legally required on labels: varieties and animal breeds, cultivation and processing techniques, characteristics of the environment and local area, animal welfare.
• Promote policies that tackle food waste, by raising awareness of the value of food in all phases of the food supply chain (production, distribution, and consumption)
• Guarantee the right (and the duty) of farmers to produce seeds, to certify the seeds themselves (guaranteeing traceability and attesting to their health) and to sell them
• Encourage the registration of native varieties in public catalogues, as a means to culturally and commercially safeguard seeds, and thus biodiversity as a whole
• Guarantee the free exchange of seeds
• Promote the ban on the cultivation of any GMO crops in Europe
• Encourage the use of GMO-free food and animal feed
• Reinforce the risk assessment of GMOs and ensure its transparency
• Limit pesticide use as much as possible
• Encourage agricultural management systems (e.g. organic agriculture and agroecology) based on crop rotation, crop diversification, and the protection of beneficial insects that protect biodiversity
• Introduce a maximum travel time from farm to abattoir
• Drastically reduce the use of antibiotics in breeding and rearing
• Prohibit the sale of meat from cloned animals or their offspring
If you are willing to commit to a Common Sustainable Food Policy based on these measures, please contact us at email@example.com

Many people contact me because they have anxieties and fears that are causing them great difficulties in their lives.
A number are referred by their consultant, doctor or people who I have previously helped.
A client. no matter what their particular problem, is a person who is entitled to a happy and contented life.
Past problems, habits, traumas should not be allowed to affect the right of any human being to live their life to the full.
What is past should not bind their life now or in the future. Of course, it does, and that is where I try to intervene - by showing them that they DO have a future. That, although they cannot change the past, they CAN change the way they look on the past and learn how to cope with it differently.
I call this technique 'alternative cognition' and by using this, clients can progress quickly to a more contented and fulfilling existence.
Over the past few years, GPs have referred more people to me who are suffering from psychosomatic illnesses - physical disorders in which both emotions and thought patterns are believed to play a central role. Stress and anxiety will often make them worse.
Psychosomatic illnesses are not imaginary and need to be diagnosed and treated early.
Hypnotherapy-Plus specialises in Alternative Cognition - a process based on the principle of 'Don't Pick the Scab'.
This very active approach, together with other techniques such as Relaxed-Awareness and Awake Hypnosis bring rapid and effective stress relief .
Using this combination of therapies with the power of clinical hypnosis reduces the number of visits required and has the added advantage of teaching the body to literally relax on demand.

I am the bread earner of my house and being a financial supporter of the house brings a lot of responsibilities. I met with a tragic accident after which my doctor strictly warned me not to travel long distances. I had no clue what to do as I just cannot afford to quit my job, but at the end I had to do so as my office was located at long distance. I tried to hunt for job in nearby location but could not find any. After all the efforts to hunt for a new job, I finally decided to work from home. I started a small tutorial but there were hardly any children in my class. I distributed the pamphlet, which did not make much difference. My brother then suggested me to make use of internet, and asked me to create website. He gave me the link to this website and asked me to purchase their website builder tool.
I went through the website and read the information about the tool. It was easy to access and any person can create their web portal in just sometime. It does not take any long process as the user just need to drag and drop their contents. I did not have any knowledge about the coding language and still could build a website that works effectively. It is a user friendly tool that allows the user to make use of it without any trouble. I am very thankful for this tool as it has helped me in various ways.

For some of us, the phrase "adult contemporary jazz trumpeter" is about as inviting as watching Kenny G dry hump his soprano sax. Indeed, at first glance, Chris Botti's music seems like the kind of lame, manufactured pap to which we avoid giving ink. But this guy's for real--our unyielding notions of musical authenticity be damned.
First of all, Botti has done session work for Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin, and he joined Paul Simon's band in 1990 before going solo. For the past two years, he has played with Sting (for whom he is the opening act) and studied at the University of Indiana under jazz teaching legend David Baker. Second of all, his technical trumpet skills mixed with his musical aesthetics turn the trumpet's cavalry call into a sensual sex scene. His experimental approach to the instrument proves that six hours of practice a day (as he admits) is well worth it. Staking his claim mainly as a contemporary jazz trumpet player, he throws out the "smooth jazz" label with which he has been branded.
"Smooth jazz has become a format for anything adult," Botti says. "Luther Vandross is considered smooth jazz. I mean, what the hell? Anyone who sees me and my band play live knows I improvise a lot and play the trumpet at a high level."
On his latest album, A Thousand Kisses Deep, Botti, with his 1940 Martin Committee in hand (the same model Miles Davis used), covers songs by Burt Bacharach and Leonard Cohen, whose "A Thousand Kisses Deep" is by far the finest song on the disc, with a bridge to the song that Botti asked Cohen to write just for his album.

Senior citizens who become missing and have some medical conditions may soon have similar protection as kids who become missing.
The Virginia House and Senate have passed legislation that would enable the Virginia State Police to set up the "Senior Alert" system.
It would work sort of like the "Amber Alert" for children. The program would coordinate immediate response in finding missing Virginians 60 and older.
The governor is expected to sign the legislation which could go into effect July 1, 2007.

I never met a person who is not interested in language, wrote the bestselling author and psychologist Steven Pinker. There are good reasons that language fascinates us so. It not only defines humans as a species, placing us head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators, but it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries. For example:
I never met a person who is not interested in language, wrote the bestselling author and psychologist Steven Pinker. There are good reasons that language fascinates us so. It not only defines humans as a species, placing us head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators, but it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries. For example:
An accomplished scholar, Professor McWhorter is also a skilled popularizer, whose book The Power of Babel was called "startling, provocative, and remarkably entertaining," by the San Diego Union-Tribune.
The London Times called him "a born teacher." And Steven Pinker, best known as the author of The Language Instinct, offered this praise for the book: "McWhorter's arguments are sharply reasoned, refreshingly honest, and thoroughly original."
Discover How Linguists Think
For the past century linguistics has been one of the most exciting and productive fields in the social sciences. In the process of telling the story of language, Professor McWhorter introduces you to some of the current controversies in the discipline:
In discovering how linguists think, you will begin to see language in an entirely new way. You will learn that everything about a language is eternally and inherently changeable, from its word order and grammar to the very sound and meaning of basic words.
That's why Professor McWhorter describes language as "like one of those lava lamps from the 1970s. It's not marching toward an ideal, and it's not slowly going to the dogs. It's always just variations of the same thing—endless morphings."
A Wealth of Examples from a Teacher Passionate about Language
In an interview with the New York Times, Professor McWhorter said: "Languages have been a passion since I was a small child. I used to teach them to myself as a hobby. I speak three and a bit of Japanese, and can read seven."
In this course, he includes these languages and many more as examples. Anyone who has ever studied a language will surely find it discussed—along with Albanian, Armenian, Turkish, Sanskrit, Mandarin, Cantonese, Tibetan, Korean, Tagalog, Maori, Fijian, Samoan, Gullah, Hopi, Mohawk, Navajo, Yupik Eskimo, Quechua, and Welsh, as well as Latin, Greek, German, Russian, French, Spanish, Swedish, and many others.
It's remarkable how much light one language sheds on another. For example, the ancestor language of English is Proto-Germanic, and the ancestor of that is Proto-Indo-European. A curious transformation took place in the consonants of Proto-Germanic, in which Proto-Indo-European p became f; d became t; and so on with other consonant pairs. So Latin pater is English father, and Latin decem is English ten. This rule is called Grimm's Law after its discoverer—the same Jacob Grimm who collected folk tales.
Such patterns make relationships among different languages clear and make learning these languages much easier.
What You Will Learn
Language basics. In Lecture 1, you start by comparing human language to animal communication and ask, how valid are claims that animals such as chimpanzees have rudimentary language skills? Then you look at intriguing evidence that links a specific gene to the ability to use language. The first appearance of this gene in humans has been calculated and gives a surprisingly early date for the birth of language.
Chomsky's revolution. In Lecture 2, Professor McWhorter notes that linguists are often mistakenly thought to be translators or experts on word histories. But their work takes them far deeper into language. For example, Noam Chomsky and his coworkers have been searching for the grammatical properties common to all languages—an effort that has revolutionized linguistics, though not without controversy.
Change is the norm. In Lectures 3–7, you learn the specific mechanisms responsible for language change, from phenomena such as the tone system in Chinese to the gradual shift in the meanings of words over time. You will find that even the parts of Shakespeare you believe you understand may not mean what you think.
Beginnings. In Lectures 8–13, you explore language families, starting with Indo-European, comprising languages from India to Ireland including English. Other language families discussed are Semitic, Sino-Tibetan, Austronesian, Bantu, and Native American. You also look at the heated debate over the first language.
Dialects. In Lectures 14–19, you cover dialects. Often one dialect is chosen as the standard, and when it is used in writing, it changes more slowly than the dialects that are just spoken. One consequence is that people who speak written languages are often taught that the constructions they produce spontaneously are errors.
Mixing it up. In Lectures 20–22, you study the phenomenon of language mixture. The first language's 6,000 branches have not only diverged into dialects, but they have been constantly mixing with one another on all levels: vocabulary, grammar, syntax, and usage. As a result, English comprises a vocabulary of largely borrowed terms.
How English got that way. In Lectures 23–25, you learn how processes of change lead some languages to develop more grammatical machinery than they need, while others become streamlined, shedding such complexities. English is an interesting example of the latter tendency.
Prisoner of grammar? In Lecture 26, you examine the famous Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which proposes that features of our grammars channel how we think.
New languages from old. In Lectures 27–32, Professor McWhorter focuses on pidgins and creoles. When people learn a language quickly without being explicitly taught, they develop a pidgin version of it. Then if they need to use this pidgin on an everyday basis it becomes a real language, a creole. Some people argue that Black English is a creole, and Professor McWhorter devotes a lecture to this issue.
Extinction. In Lectures 33 and 34, you come full circle. Having explored the processes that give birth to new languages, you now learn how languages become extinct and what can be done to preserve them.
Conclusion. In Lectures 35 and 36, you explore artificial languages, including Esperanto and sign languages for the deaf, and conclude by examining a single English sentence etymologically. In the process, you learn how word histories reflect the phenomena of language change and mixture worldwide.
The Armory of the Mind
Professor McWhorter covers a wealth of material, enlivened with wit and personal observations:

{Announcement + Video} My First National Cooking Segment Debut!Posted by Katie on Sep 19, 2012 in Announcement, video | 28 comments
Yesterday, I posted about my Carrot Cake Rice Krispies Treats and mentioned that I was going to be on The Daily Buzz morning show for National Rice Krispies Treat Day! This was my second time doing a cooking segment on tv in the past week although my first go last week hasn't aired yet. Don't worry I'll let you know once it does! This time around it was "live-live" as in… no edits, no re-takes, just me, the co-host, and camera crew.
If you're not familiar with The Daily Buzz they are a nationally syndicated morning show in over 170+ TV markets across the nation. Yah, this was kind of big deal. The fact that my aunt from Los Angeles, California was able to watch me on national tv was a little mind blowing for me.
So after multiple emails, tweets, Facebook message request to see my segment… here is my first cooking segment on National television.
Now, I want to show you a few photos from behind the scenes… I always like to see what goes on back stage when the camera isn't rolling. Please keep in mind that all of these photos were taken on my iPhone–I wasn't about to schlep around my DSLR.
I was asked to arrive at the studio at 5:45am. Keep in mind I had a days notice to get prepared (and I work a full time day job), so Monday night I frivolously worked to cook up a wide variety of Rice Krispies Treats. The worlds BIGGEST thank you to my husband who helped me cut and package rice krispies treats, clean endless dishes, and pack my car the night before. I could not have done this segment without his help! It was team work at our best.
I arrived at the studio at 5:45 am and then rushed to get my display set up since the cast was going on-air at 6am and I knew I wouldn't be able to make a lot of noise.
I had a wide variety of Krispy Treats. Pictured left on the raised cake plate you'll find cookies-n-cream rice krispies treats, followed by the original and a variety of toppings to place on the original Rice Krispy Treats. Pictured top right are Red Velvet Rice Krispies Treats, on the long platter in the middle you'll find my Peanut Butter Rice Krispies Treats and my Mint Chocolate Chip Rice Krispies Treats. On the bottom was my latest and greats creation the Carrot Cake Rice Krispies Treats.
I think it was around 6:25 when Lisa Spooner did a teaser segway in the kitchen with my Rice Krispies Treats! After this was filmed I went and sat in the green room for an hour and a half and worked on blog stuff and watched the show.
Around 8am while the cast was on air, I worked on a side table to prep my ingredients for my on-air cooking demo, and carefully and quietly brought the ingredients to the kitchen.
At 8:37 it was my time to shine and overall I'm happy with how I did. Although, as you may have seen I had a little marshmallow faux pas! The marshmallows had been heating for over 15 minutes and by the time we got to my segment they were turning rock hard and beyond overworked.
One of the camera guys was kind enough to take a few photos of me. This was after we filmed the cooking segment. Oh, and for the record. I did not purposefully match (Le Creuset pot, apron, shirt).
And well, because I'm short, I had to stand on a riser box so I could be around the same height as the cohost! lol.
Lisa Spooner and I after the show.
Jessica Reyes and I after the show.
After the show ended I started cleaning up, and this is what I was faced with. I packed up my car (with the help of the lovely staff from The Daily Buzz) and drove home to soak my Le Creuset pot and put everything away.
I stopped by good 'ol Dunkin for an (extra large) Iced Coffee to keep me going since at this point it was 11am and I still had to get to work and stay awake for the next 8 hours.
And this is what I got home too… I was praying that the dish fairies would swoop down and clean up the kitchen for me. All-in-all I had a phenomenal day yesterday and can not thank all of your enough for the kind comments and support I've received!

Here we have the start of an exciting mini series from The King's Consort, recording highlights of the sacred music of Claudio Monteverdi.
The first volume is suitably opulent, with a veritable 'Who's who' of Monteverdi solo singers joined by two dozen chorus singers and a colourful group of instrumentalists under Robert King's lively baton. The repertoire for this opening volume presents a joyous Christmas sequence from the composer's great collection of 1640-41, Selva morale e spirituale, such as might have been heard at a Venetian Vespers, alongside a fine Mass. The spacious recordings are complemented by excellent booklet notes by Monteverdi expert Professor John Whenham.
Monteverdi's unique music is constantly inventive, immensely varied—and uniquely Venetian. A glorious new Hyperion project!
For most music lovers Monteverdi's church music begins and ends with the sumptuous Vespers settings that he published, together with a Mass, in 1610. However, the Vespers of 1610, astonishing though they are, form only part of Monteverdi's total output of church music and belong, paradoxically, to a period in which we have little evidence of his work as a church musician.
Monteverdi's career as a professional musician falls into two periods of almost equal length. From 1590 or 1591 to 1612 he was employed as a household musician at the court of Vincenzo Gonzaga, ruler of the north Italian duchy of Mantua, and rose to become court choirmaster there in 1601. The extent of Monteverdi's involvement in church music at Mantua is not clear. He was not regularly involved with the musical establishment of Santa Barbara, the ducal chapel, which was headed by Giacomo Gastoldi from 1582 to 1609, and the majority of his publications from the Mantuan period are of madrigals and opera. Nevertheless, it is quite likely that he wrote sacred music to be performed in the smaller chapels within the ducal palace or as spiritual chamber music. It has been suggested, too, that both court and chapel musicians may have joined forces at least once a year in Santa Barbara to celebrate the feast day of its patron saint, and that some at least of the music that appears in the 1610 volume may have been written for these occasions.
Equally, though, the music of the 1610 volume, published by Monteverdi at a time of growing dissatisfaction with conditions at Mantua, may have been intended simply to demonstrate that he was employable as a church musician. The volume contains settings for the two services for which elaborate music was most often used in the late Renaissance. The Mass, the ritual reenactment of the Last Supper, was the central celebration of the church day, and Monteverdi made great play, in the 1610 volume, of writing a setting which emulated the conservative style of Palestrina and his contemporaries. His settings of five psalms, hymn, Magnificat and motets for Vespers, the main evening service of the Catholic Church, are quite different, and use all the resources of the new music of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries—rich harmonies, expressive operatic solos and elaborately ornamented music to be performed by virtuoso singers and instrumentalists. The 1610 volume can, then, be seen as a portfolio for prospective employers. Certainly, when Monteverdi took copies of the newly published volume to Rome to present them to Pope Paul V, he spent nearly three months in the city, cultivating the acquaintance of an influential group of cardinals. And in 1611 some of his psalm settings were performed in Modena Cathedral, though, according to a Modenese chronicler, they caused 'disgust' among everyone who heard them.
Following the death of Vincenzo Gonzaga, Monteverdi was summarily dismissed from Mantua in July 1612 by the new duke, Francesco Gonzaga. It seems that he had unwisely hinted that he might be able to obtain a better position elsewhere. For a year he was without regular employment, though performances of some of his music in Milan led to rumours that he was seeking the position of choirmaster at the cathedral there. He was fortunate, therefore, that the post of choirmaster of St Mark's, Venice, fell vacant in the summer of 1613, and doubly fortunate that the procurators of St Mark's, faced with falling musical standards in the church, decided to look outside Venice for a new appointee. For his audition on 1 August 1613 Monteverdi directed a Mass of his own—probably the one included in the 1610 volume—and his appointment was approved unanimously by the procurators. He remained at Venice, deriving a good deal of satisfaction from the honour and respect that he enjoyed there, until his death in 1643.
In Monteverdi's day St Mark's was not the cathedral of Venice, but the doge's chapel. As such it was at the centre of interaction between church and state, for in Venice, major religious feast days were inextricably intertwined with the celebration of the city's history and sense of identity. Moreover, important guests of the doge attended services at St Mark's, where music of appropriate splendour was used to impress them; and the choir, with their choirmaster, was also responsible for entertaining the doge and his guests at state banquets; indeed, there were occasions when half the St Mark's choir would be engaged in singing at a banquet while the other half was left to sing Vespers in the church.
The musical establishment that Monteverdi inherited included a main choir of about twenty men, including soprano castratos, who were responsible for singing the most elaborate of the music heard at St Mark's; in addition, the church boasted a group of boy singers who performed plainsong and the occasional short polyphonic mass on weekdays, a group of some sixteen instrumentalists, and two organists (the church had two fixed and another two portable organs). The music that the choir sang (and, thus, that the choirmaster wrote for them) was governed by an elaborate set of rules specifying the types of music to be used for particular occasions. And, to complicate matters still further, St Mark's had its own liturgy, independent of the Roman rite formalised by the Council of Trent (the Tridentine rite), which meant that some of its texts were used only at St Mark's and at a limited number of similar institutions. A case in point is the so-called 'Vespero delle Cinque Laudate' (Vespers of the Five Laudate) in which all five psalms began with a variant of the verb 'laudare' (to praise). This service does not appear in the Tridentine rite at all, but was used at St Mark's for Vespers on many of the most important feast days of the year; and though we customarily associate St Mark's with music of great splendour and virtuosity, surviving collections of the Cinque Laudate psalms (none of them by Monteverdi) are rather restrained in character and conservative in style.
The style of music most often associated with St Mark's is that involving spatial effects between two or more groups of singers and/or instrumentalists. This style, exemplified particularly in the music of Giovanni Gabrieli, was used at St Mark's for Mass settings and ceremonial motets, and might involve the main choir singing at ground level, with instrumentalists and solo singers placed either in the organ lofts at each side of the chancel, or in the alcoves (nicchie), stacked like opera boxes, just behind the choir screen. At first sight, the many eight-part Vespers psalms involving two groups of four voices that were written for St Mark's seem to belong to the same tradition, especially since custom dictated that the choir should sing Vespers in eight parts on days of particular solemnity, when the great golden altarpiece—the Pala d'Oro—was uncovered and, more often than not, the doge himself was present for the service. In fact, though, the two choirs who sang Vespers—one a group of soloists, the other a larger, ripieno, group—customarily stood together in a large pulpit at the front right of the choir screen, just as Canaletto depicted them in the mid eighteenth century. Since only about twelve or thirteen singers could fit into the pulpit we have a clear indication of the size of choir normally used for Vespers at St Mark's. It is clear, too, that all the musicians, whether situated in the pulpit, in the organ lofts or in the nicchie, directed their performances not into the nave of the church, but into the chancel, where the priests, the doge, senators and important visitors were seated.
It should be emphasized that we only have clear evidence of the way in which Vespers was normally sung at St Mark's; however, those of Monteverdi's psalm settings that call for instrumental accompaniment could not have been performed from the pulpit alone; the instrumentalists were probably located in one of the organ galleries along with the player who was accompanying on the organ. We know, too, that the service of Vespers was occasionally celebrated on a grand scale at St Mark's: the revised version of Sansovino's Venetia città nobilissima, published in the early years of the seventeenth century, includes this description of First Vespers for Christmas: '[On Christmas Eve Vespers] is celebrated with the sweetest sounds of voices and instruments by the salaried musicians of the church and by others hired specially to make a greater number, since on that evening they sing in eight, ten, twelve and sixteen choirs [sic] to the wonder and amazement of everyone, and especially of foreign visitors, who declare that they have never heard music as rare, or as remarkable in other parts of the world.'
St Mark's was not the only scene of Monteverdi's activity in Venice. As the city's leading musician he was also regularly invited to direct music for important services in other churches where different performance practices obtained and the Tridentine rite was followed. To take just one example: in 1620 the Flemish diplomat Constantin Huygens witnessed him directing his own music for Vespers for the Feast of St John the Baptist (24 June) in a church that has been identified as S Giovanni Elemosinario, near the Rialto; the music was sung by twelve singers and accompanied by theorbos, cornetts, bassoons, a basso di viola, organs and other instruments.
A good deal of the sacred music that Monteverdi wrote for Venice, including some important works mentioned in his letters and other documents, is now lost. Apart from a few works included in anthologies, most of what survives was published in two collections, the Selva morale e spirituale, issued by Monteverdi himself in 1640/41 and dedicated to Eleonora Gonzaga, daughter of Duke Vincenzo Gonzaga and widow of the Emperor Ferdinand II (1587–1637), and the Messa a quattro voci et salmi, issued posthumously in 1650 by the publisher Alessandro Vincenti. Both are monumental publications summing up the thirty years of Monteverdi's work in Venice and both contain multiple settings of Vespers texts. The two books include a wealth of music and a wide range of styles, from conservative Mass settings to psalms and motets that use the most up-to-date song styles of the 1620s and '30s; for even in his old age Monteverdi continued to explore new ideas.
The Selva morale of 1640/41 contains both settings of Latin texts for use in the liturgy and spiritual and moral madrigals. The volume was intended by Monteverdi not only as a summing up of his work at Venice, but also as a resource book for choirmasters, who could draw from it as few or as many settings as they needed for a particular service. Like most Venetian musicians he had regard to the fact that most choirmasters worked within the Tridentine rite and not the special liturgy of St Mark's. This recording presents the main items that would have been performed in polyphony—five psalms, the Office Hymn and Magnificat—for First Vespers of Christmas in the Tridentine liturgy, a service that would have been celebrated on Christmas Eve. It includes eight-part settings of the kind called for in St Mark's on the important occasions on which the Pala d'Oro would have been opened and the doge present in the church.
Dixit [Dominus] Primo 'à 8 voci concertato con due Violini et quattro viole o Tromboni, quali se portasse l'accidente anco si ponno lasciare'
In this setting Monteverdi adopts the procedure of having the solo and choral exchanges customarily used for eight-part psalms at St Mark's, though he uses a fluid series of contrasts between passages for one, two or more singers and the full ensemble, allowing the music to flow on from verse to verse without halt if the sense demands, and using repetition and contrast to build larger structures. The setting begins with a single vocal line intoning the first line of the psalm, as though chanting it to the psalm tone that would have been used for a celebration of Vespers in plainsong. In fact, though, the setting is not based entirely on plainsong; the solo intonation is used simply to distinguish between the narrative with which the verse begins and the direct speech with which it continues. Psalm tone 8 does appear briefly, in the music for verse 3, first in Tenor 2, elaborated with new material including fanfare-like battle figures for 'in the midst of Thine enemies' (in medio inimicorum tuorum); the chant is then taken over by Soprano 1 for the repeat of the words 'Virgam virtutis tuae' and then passed to Tenor 1 and organ for 'emittet Dominus ex Sion', where it acts as the accompaniment to duets in the upper voices. Monteverdi treats verses 4 and 5, 6 and 7 as linked pairs for the purpose of musical setting. Verses 6 and 7 are particularly memorable, with the duet 'a dextris tuis' which begins verse 6 reused at the beginning and in the middle of verse 7 as a reminder that it is the Lord who sits at the right hand of God who will wreak death and destruction on the day of judgment.
Confitebor Primo [à 8] 'à 3 voci con 5 altre voci ne ripieni'
Beatus vir I'à 6 voci concertato con due violini et 3 viole da brazzo ovvero 3 Tromboni quali anco si ponno lasciare'
Laudate pueri Primo'à 5 concertato con due violini'
Laudate Dominum omnes gentes 'à 5 concertato con due violini et un choro a quattro voci qual potrasi e cantare e sonare con quattro viole o Tromboni et anco lasciare se acadesse il bisogno'
Christe redemptor omnium 'Himnus unius Martyris'
Magnificat Primo 'à 8 voci et due violini et quattro viole overo quattro Tromboni quali in accidente si ponno lasciare'
Monteverdi sets some verses of the text as self-standing entities: 'Quia respexit', set largely as though it were one of the languorous triple-time arias found in Venetian song-books of the 1620s and '30s, is a case in point. But he also groups some verses into larger, more impressive, units. An example is provided by the first two verses, which are bound together by an opening for all the voices and instruments which gives way to a solo tenor intoning the beginning of the plainsong Magnificat tone for the first mode. Similarly, verses 6 to 8 are linked by an eight-part refrain for 'Fecit potentiam', using the triadic figures and repeated notes of the 'warlike' style that Monteverdi pioneered in his Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda of 1624. Verses 9 and 10, with their combination of sustained dissonances and faster-moving motives form a wonderful climax to the work and, with the final Gloria Patri, to the Vespers service as a whole.
Messa à 4 da Cappella
It has been suggested that the motive with which all the main movements of the Selva morale Mass begin is drawn from the beginning of the madrigal 'La vaga pastorella', published by Monteverdi in his first book of madrigals (1587) and that the Mass dates from around this period. The thematic material is indeed similar to the opening of the madrigal, but the apparently effortless flow of the polyphony suggests that the Mass itself belongs to a period of mastery rather than apprenticeship.
The concerted Mass sections printed in the Selva morale include settings of three texts—'Crucifixus', 'Et resurrexit' and 'Et iterum venturus est'—the second of which includes violins as well as continuo accompaniment. Together, these three sections form a complete paragraph of the Creed. The original context for which they were written is uncertain, but Monteverdi indicates that they can be used, for variety, in place of the corresponding sections of the a cappella Mass.

The second man charged in connection to the fatal shooting of a family pet in northern Albemarle County was sentenced Tuesday morning.
Brian Tichner, 22, will serve two years behind bars. He was given the maximum five years for possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony, but the judge suspended 36 months of the sentence. Tichner had prior convictions of burglary, grand larceny and petty larceny, which contributed to the judge's decision to give the maximum jail time.
The Dyke resident testified in May that his friend, Justin Riggs, pulled the trigger and killed Mattie, a 10-month-old Siberian Husky belonging to Ed and Yvonne Scarborough. Riggs entered a plea agreement in August that will include a mandatory two years behind bars.
"My client had no intent at all to harm an animal or anyone and felt genuinely remorseful about the dog being killed by his companion," said Tichner's attorney, David Heilberg.
Prior to the sentence being handed down, Tichner admitted he had marijuana and anger problems and apologized to the Scarborough family, saying, "I'm sorry for what happened to the dog."
Sobbing, he hugged his mother before leaving the courtroom.
The Scarborough family reported the shooting outside their home in the Fray's Grant neighborhood in January. They approved of the plea agreement Tichner entered.

First, a tip o' the hat to contributor Sydney Kramer for having the best food blog name ever, The Crepes of Wrath. Second, we're fully in love with this crock pot beer chicken recipe she recently posted. Not only does it have potatoes and onionsmaking it doubly perfect for St. Patrick's Day, it really flips the script on the whole "Go home, chicken, you're drunk" paradigm. With this recipe, it's more of "come to me, drunk chicken." Less rejection, you know? Now that we've thought way too much into this, get the delicious recipe on The Crepes of Wrath.

The 2012 winter wheat crop sitting in elevators across Kansas remains the single bright spot in a dismal forecast for the state's fall-harvested crops.
This year's wheat was harvested before this summer's drought took hold in Kansas.
Kansas Agricultural Statistics Service on Friday estimated the state's wheat crop at 387 million bushels. The estimate is 2 percent lower than the agency's forecast last month, but is still 40 percent higher than the drought-stricken 2011 wheat crop.
This is the biggest wheat crop in Kansas since 2003.
The agency says the wheat was cut from 9 million acres. That is 1.1 million more acres than harvest a year ago. It is the largest Kansas wheat acreage since 2006.

Intro to my possible Ruby Book
Writing Beautiful, Functional, Immutable Ruby
My own history
I have been coding since I was thirteen, when my Father came home with old IBM clone that he traded for during the 80's barter craze. Being nearly forty years old now, I have stubbed my toe and left it bleeding in more than a dozen languages now. If I were a construction worker instead of a knowledge worker, I would probably be missing fingers, toes, and possibly a hand or leg.
When I look at my whole career in code, I see a common theme. From BASIC, to C to C++, to VB, to Javascript to C# to Ruby I have been writing imperative, stateful code for my whole career. I have lived with loops, state mutation, and C syntax, and was blissfully unaware of anything else as I had skipped the CS degree and opted to go directly into the workforce at eighteen.
I worked through the 90s as the Internet was in it's very early years. I had a Geocities page for my Warcraft tips and strategies. It probably didn't blink, but it must have been fugly. I worked for companies that turned email into snail mail, companies who turned snail mail into email, and companies who made adware for Windows machines and a little bit of everything in between.
When I coded in C, we hated those 'weird' C++ guys. We would tease them about using a language before the improvement, since it wasn't ++C. Then I joined that group to write DCOM and COM+ for Intel. We made fun of the VB programmers. Then I became a VB programmer when ASP exploded, since it was essentially VBScript, and I don't like context switches. Then it was semi-colons that were stupid.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is going to Fort Campbell, Kentucky today to show gratitude to participants in the daring raid on Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan.
But before visiting troops, he'll stop in Indianapolis to promote his energy policies and showcase a transmission plant that produces systems for hybrid vehicles.
White House officials say that at Fort Campbell, The President will thank the raid participants privately. But the President Obama joined by Vice President Joe Biden, also will address soldiers who have returned recently from Afghanistan, a public forum where the military triumph over the death of bin Laden will be hard to mask.

CAPE CORAL, Fla.- A Cape Coral boy is pictured in a video montage on Down Syndrome. It will play on the jumbo-screen in Times Square in New York City. The boy's parents say they're excited that the picture will be included in the video.
"We got the word and we just started calling and texting everyone," said John Graham, father of Bentyn Graham, who is just under 1 year old. "Everyone was saying, that is awesome, just awesome. We are extremely excited."
John Graham and Barbie Charest say they didn't know what to expect when Bentyn was born with Down Syndrome. But they are amazed at his development, and very hopeful he will be able to attend public schools and find a place in mainstream society.
"He is high-functioning, and I believe he will do fine," said Charest.
"We are going to raise him without limits or ceilings. To let him know, he can do things," said Graham.
Bentyn's picture was chosen from nearly 3,000 submitted to the National Down Syndrome Society. The video will play on the giant screen in Times Square on Saturday Sept. 22. It will makre the beginning of a month of activities to promote awareness and acceptance of those with Down Syndrome.

Speed Of Sound Lyrics - Tech N9ne
I be comin like a auto but I'm murderin everything
I'm a killa wit the mission to flip it
I'm sick wit the givin, the lip I be itchin to give it
A wif of the wicked, I stick it wit the quick and they diggin it!
Like I said it befo' I'm a get up and go
And get it, because I'm Mr. Malignant, keepin' you riveted
Livin' it, paligiment, sin a bit
And a chick in a minute, Tecca Nina be kickin' it
I flow for the middle west, go for your little neck
Don't let me get it, but your hoe, I'm a get it wet
Stop and drop, on top of twat, in your kitchen
Not the guap, I pop without an admission
Hailin' from Mizzery
You can smell out the hell in the thizzery, just remember me
Bustin' deliveries and I'm makin' them shivvery
I'm takin' my little city to lyrical liberty
I go for the gusto and lead the ground
No bush to beat around
All the midwest choppers on this track and yes, oh, we are down
Tecca Nina wit Bone, everybody gets on, all the MCs we a clown
And we do it like a bullet, from a gun, or better yet, the speed of sound!
