The four-octave Theodore C. Butz Memorial Carillon at the Chicago Botanic Garden. | Photo courtesy of Chicago Botanic Garden
♦ 7 p.m. Mondays, through Sept. 3

The Chicago Botanic Garden's carillon concert series, a tradition since 1986, is in full ring. Every Monday night through Sept. 3, the garden will be alive with the sound of bells — 48 cup-shaped bronze bells, to be exact, each forged in Holland.
On a recent evening, Tim Steep, one of a distinguished roster of carillonneurs performing at the garden this summer, performed a selection of pieces ranging from classical and Scott Joplin syncopations to the Broadway standard "The Impossible Dream."
"People love hearing a piece of music they recognize," he says. He is quick to add: "Every song can be played (on a carillon), but not every song should be." This from a man who has played Lady Gaga on the bells.
A carillon is a collection of bells played manually on a keyboard that resembles that of a piano, but with wooden levers that resemble batons instead of keys, which the performer manipulates with his or her fists. There also are pedal keys.
The garden's four-octave Theodore C. Butz Memorial Carillon, located in the landmark tower on Evening Island, is one of only five carillons in Illinois. There are more than 180 carillons in North America, according to the Guild of Carilloneurs in North America.
With their unique skill set, carilloneurs live a "got bells, will travel" existence. Steep performs regularly on the Millennium Carillon in Naperville and at the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel at the University of Chicago.
Talent scheduled to appear at the Garden in the coming weeks include Stephan Burton (July 9), who studied the instrument at Brigham Young University; Anna Kasprzycka (July 16) from Gdansk, Poland, and Robert Grogan (July 23), who plays and teaches carillon in Washington, D.C.
"Carilloneurs tend to move around a lot because we are a limited number of people," Steep said. "The nice thing about that is that it gives hometown audiences a chance to hear players from other places."
A special feature of the concert series is the pre-concert tour of the carillon, which takes place every 15 minutes between 5:30 and 6:30 p.m. Visitors can climb the 17 steps of the tower's spiral staircase to view the impressive instrument, which is located beneath the bells, the heaviest of which weighs 2½ tons.
On this night, Steep demonstrated how he coaxes a melody out of the bells with fists and feet. One of the challenges, he said, is that depending on the breeze, the sound of the carillon can literally be gone with the wind. The Botanic Garden recommends that the best place to hear the bells is the lawn in front of the McKinley Pavilion.
Another challenge is that unlike a piano, there is no damper pedal that would stop a bell's ringing once it has been struck.
As part of its curriculum of continuing education classes, the garden offers carillon lessons on an indoor practice carillon keyboard and pedalboard donated by the Butz Foundation. For more information on the class, call (847) 835-8261.

Jaren Sina, a consensus top-150 player in the class of 2013, committed to Seton Hall over Indiana and Northwestern today.
Sina's father confirmed the news via email.
The 6-foot-2 point guard out of New Jersey was targeted by the Hoosiers as a potential add for depth at the position, in addition to Kevin "Yogi" Ferrell and incoming freshman Stan Robinson.
Sina is a former Alabama commit who switched to Northwestern and then was released from his letter of intent after the Wildcats fired then-coach Bill Carmody.
The Pirates did themselves a favor by hiring Fred Hill, a former Northwestern assistant coach who helped the Wildcats secure Sina's commitment.
The Hoosiers are at the limit for scholarships now with 13 players on full rides, and it's unclear whether they will pursue another potential backup point guard or stick with what they have now.
It is also uncertain whether IU coach Tom Crean was making the push to land Sina because he knows of another player who is considering leaving the program.
Stay tuned for more information.

real time
Occurring immediately. The term is used to describe a number of different computer features. For example, real-time operating systems are systems that respond to input immediately. They are used for such tasks as navigation, in which the computer must react to a steady flow of new information without interruption. Most general-purpose operating systems are not real-time because they can take a few seconds, or even minutes, to react.
Real time can also refer to events simulated by a computer at the same speed that they would occur in real life. In graphics animation, for example, a real-time program would display objects moving across the screen at the same speed that they would actually move.

The OSEPP Pro Mini board is a miniaturized version of the OSEPP Pro, which in turn is a stripped down version of the OSEPP Uno. Basically, this is as small as it gets which allows for easy concealment in projects.
The OSEPP Pro board is tailored to more professional users who do not mind a build-it-yourself approach compared to the OSEPP Uno. Unlike the Uno model this barebones board lacks headers, which gives this board a low profile. Pro users can choose to connect only the needed pins by mounting headers or soldering wires directly.
The ATmega328P comes with the Arduino bootloader preloaded. Should you wish to update and/or replace the bootloader, there are ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) pin-outs that can be used in combination with a header (sold separately) for the ATmega328P.
The board comes with a resettable polyfuse on the power source. The fuse will trip when the current exceeds 500 mA on the input.

Light of the Moon
by Luanne Rice
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Didn't realize how much I would like this book because these types of books are generally not my kind but since this is the first time I have ever read a book by Luanne Rice, I decided to give her a chance and guess what? This was a really great book!
Interesting locale an background and most of the adult characters were well drawn. The story was complex enough to be interesting and, if you are a romance fan, this would be a nice choice. The juvenile characters, and, in particular, the key character of Sari, struck me as being inauthentic. I just couldn't make myself believe in this little girl as a real person. The book was in need of some strategic editing. It would have been a much more readable, tighter novel at about 250 pages. The growing affection between Grey and Susannah was adult and well written for the most part; a bit too much in the way of "passionate, lingering kisses" for my taste.
An unusual and easy to read story.
Bookcrossing: http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/6744043/
I am not a big romance story fan but I found this story interesting. Albeit much of the romantic interaction is not realistic, but the story line is quite interesting. I have been to southern France and have visited the places in the story. So perhaps this helps. It is somewhat predictable in that it has a happy ending with the child recovering her color vision.
I really liked this book!! I loved the characters, I loved the setting, I loved the story! Best romance/chick book I have read in a lonnng time! The story line was just magical, both literally and figuratively. I would highly recommend this book. It was a very quick read without being simplistic. I also love the substory of the little girl. I would very much like to see another book about the little girl grown up, I want to know what happened to her. I would say that the ending was predictable, but really, most books are, arent they?

DEFINITION of 'Fractional Gift'
A gift that provides a fractional interest in an artwork today, while providing the rest of the interest over a period of time. A fractional gift may allow the donor to still display the work at a non-museum location for a period of time, possibly by alternating time periods with its display at the museum.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Fractional Gift'
A fractional gift may be given by a donor who wants to ultimately provide a piece of art to a museum, but who is not ready to fully part with the item presently. The donor will still be able to enjoy a charitable income tax deduction, though the percentage deduction is open to more stringent regulations. Because the Internal Revenue Service discourages fractional gifts, the donor is able to take the less of two values when deducting: 1) an amount based off of the work's value when the installments began, or 2) the fair market value at a subsequent installment. This means that the donor doesn't get a larger deduction if the work appreciates in value, and doesn't get the original value if the work depreciates in value.
Fractional gifts are most likely to be used by donors who are less concerned with obtaining tax deductions from the donation.

The News Hole
But really: do what you love
Well here's some food for thought from PayScale (via The Atlantic). It's a list of the least valuable universities, by degree. MICA comes in 10th (from the bottom) with a 20-year earning potential of minus $34,200.
If the average MICA graduate faces two decades in which the value of their degree, compared to not going to any college, is -$34,000, then how bad, really, is the adjunct pay there? After all, very many of MICA's part-time staff are MICA grads. Can the administration not argue that it is already paying an above-market rate?*
Let's go to the math.
According to the National Center for Education Statistics the typical American high school grad in 2011 earned $29,950. To keep it simple** we'll just multiply it by 20 (that's $599,000), subtract $34,200 and divide again by 20 to arrive at a rough estimate of the typical MICA grad's expected annual earnings.
So: $28,240.
If over two semesters a MICA adjunct gets to teach the maximum-allowed four studio classes at the typical pay—$3,500—she will make $14,000.
Now, this is just part-time pay, of course. One can't very well compare it to the full time wage depicted by Payscale. Broken down to hours, adjuncting at MICA can reasonably be said to earn $17.28 an hour.***
The comparable high school grad working 35 hours for 50 weeks is making a mere $16.14. A whole $1.14 less!
Then again, that full-time high school grad probably gets benefits. . . .

Sandy Scalpers Join Long Line of Douchebags
The proceeds from the "121212" concert, featuring Eddie Vedder, the Who, Paul McCartney, Kanye West, Alicia Keys and Bruce Springsteen, are intended to benefit the victims of Superstorm Sandy. So it's especially heartening to see a ticket sold for $60,000.
Except the ticket was sold on the secondary market by scalpers and almost none of the money will reach its rightful beneficiaries because everything is terrible.
Motivated by outrage–and, perhaps, his sixth sense for media attention–Sen. Chuck Schumer is calling for online sellers like StubHub to prohibit sales of charity tickets. In the meantime, the Sandy concert scalpers have joined a long, undistinguished list of assholes who have tried to ruin charity events in the past:
6/2005, Live 8 Concert: "More than 2 million text messages were entered, at a cost of 1.5 pounds ($2.70) each…Some winners immediately listed tickets on eBay, and some sold for more than 2,000 pounds ($3,600)."
9/2009, Jay-Z's 9/11 Benefit Concert: "Tickets to Friday's show were purposely set low at $54.50…One site was offering tickets for $45,000 each."
11/2010, Garth Brooks Concert for Nashville Flooding: "A show on Dec. 21 has a top ticket price of $1,177. The late show that night is at $1,375."
8/2012, Metallica's Greater Vancouver Food Bank Tribute: "Scalpers didn't take long to capitalize on Metallica's $5 charity concert, with tickets to Monday's gig at Rogers Arena going for as much as $50 on Craiglist."
10/2012, Charity Hockey Game: "Every $20 ticket for the Oct. 17 hockey game — Bieksa's Buddies vs. UBC Thunderbirds — was snapped up quickly as hockey-starved Vancouverites spotted perhaps their only chance to catch some of the Canucks in action this season."
Preying on Canadians' withdrawal from hockey to make a buck? This might be the most heartless one of all.

#3, surely you are thinking of the Daily Beast, not the Caller. Even the Daily Beast is not as reliable lefty as it used to be.Tucker Carlson has said his aim is to make The Daily Caller the conservative competition to Huffpo, offering constantly updated and current news and analysis from our perspective.

Obama and Elizabeth Warren have set a high standard for resume lying. This case does not rise to those levels, but it is a character flaw that should disqualify anyone from the job applied for, and require immediate dismissal for cause for anyone that has a job obtained under fraudulent pretenses. Therefore, security should be called and Obama and Elizabeth Warren led out of the building.

Contrary to what you hear from the can´t buy a clue RINO posters, Tucker Carlson is not a conservative. He and his Daily Caller are RINO mouthpieces.Instead of attacking anything TEA Party, when are the Karl Rove uglies going to start defending Boehner?

This is a long drawn out discussion which covers many facets of raiding and guilds in World of Warcraft. I usually prefer to pinpoint certain issues in posts rather than add a tremendous amount of variables which leads to a wandering discussion that is tough to follow.
Unfortunately this is one of those topics. I am just looking for emotions, responses, feelings to Blizzards strategy of making end game raiding more accessable to its players. You can stop reading now if you don't enjoy such long posts.
This is a search for opinion post rather than search for answer post. While we are on the topic though, all ideas are welcome, I would love to see what solutions others would come up with, I have listed some of my own here.
Cataclysm sounds promising to fix many of these issues, but these are changes that easily could have been released with Burning Crusade, and it frusterates me Blizzard took so long to even consider this end of the issue. I would like to keep that out of the discussion till its actually part of the game. This discussion deals with WoW as it stands at this moment.
The ultimate goal of the PvE story line in World of Warcraft is raiding. And the percentage of PUGs that are successful at conquering the Hardmode, 25 man, end game content, is minuscule to the number of guilds that achieve it.
So it falls to guilds, created, sustained and driven by players to actually bring Blizzards storyline to fruition. Which I think is fantastic, it gives players the opportunity to really claim this game for their own in a way not many other games can.
But Blizzard comes to the issue of making World of Warcraft accessible to all sorts of players, what have their strategies been?
Blizzard has been attempting to make the end game raid content more accessible. And in doing so they have reduced the draw of a guild and decreased the overall enjoyment of raiding. Reducing the excitement, the grandjeur, the strategy, the comradery, the coordination, ,the difficulty, and awe generation of the 40 man content. To the bare bones, minimalistic, lacking necessity of coordination, lacking strategic raid build, lacking in difficulty, 10 mans.
- Shrink the size of raids, decreasing the amount of raiders a guild can viabley maintain, unless they want to move to two or three raid groups. (Lots of Work)
- Introduce 10 mans. Very PUGable content.
- Decrease the reward of being in a guild. With badge farming being so easy to do, without actually doing the raids. Quantity time spent is now a substitute for quality time spent in a raid. The gap between someone that breaks themself for a guild, versus someone who farms badges on their own. Has narrowed to a point its tough to justify being in a guild for anything beyond commradery. (Which is easy to find outside of a guild)
With the massive changes to the way end game content is played in World of Warcraft since release, what changes have their been to guilds? The guild bank was introduced... A very cool feature, and can help a guild advertise themselves. But its a drop in the ocean compared to how they have reworked raiding to make it more of a draw for people.
My big question is why not Buff up guilds rather than Debuff raids?
Currently most guilds use a currency system such as DKP or EGP. With the increased ease and accessibility of raids I have actually seen just Roll off systems become more popular (Usually featured in those one month wonder guilds you see pop up on your servers a lot more frequently as of late). Guilds that use the system that gives no reward for loyalty have even less ability to retain players than guilds that do setup currency systems.
The currency system is the best a guild can do to keep track of loot, but it actually behooves a player to hop guilds. The player will take a few pieces of loot, get behind on the currency system... Then jump ship. They can go to a new guild, because now they have the gear to be accepted into this higher tier guild, and they get a totally fresh slate on the DKP or EGP numbers. There is nothing a starting guild can really offer these fresh players to keep them from hoping to the higher up guild. It creates this system where once one guild climbs to the top. The few guilds behind it, are basically just feeder guilds for that top guild.
There are two trends I see in guilds now.
Now whats the solution?
- The pyramid effect, in which one guild makes it to the top. And it is constantly fed the highest skilled players and the most geared players. Making the job of the guilds below to gear said people, but lose those people before they can use them to match the top guild in content. So it forces the guilds on a server into a certain order, all locked in their position on the progression charts.
- Or the rolling wave: The one month wonder guilds. They pop up, they sort of work out for about a month, then they crack under the pressure of no real leadership, no real comradery, no real loot system and break up. Than a month later the cycle repeats itself, and they sort of work for a different month, under a different name, and then break again.
Bring back 40 mans, No, bring back 80 mans!
- The solution is to add features that allow players to make part of that guild their own. Get attached to a guild so they will stick with it, even if its not into the high end content yet.
- Guild Halls,
- Guild Trophies,
- A more intrictue ranking system,
- Accessible websites run through Blizzard, links from the armory.
- Fix the VoIP system, or just subcontract it out to ventrilo or teamspeak.
- Unlocking quests based on time spent in the guild. Take the idea of BoA gear and translate it to upgrade based on the content they have cleared, purchasable through time with a guild.
I played EQ, (I know there were a few other games that touched its raiding scale, I am not well versed in them) the raiding was MASSIVE, on a huge scale the World of Warcraft doesn't even touch, but has every ability to. Don't bebuff the size of the raid, buff the ability of guilds to keep enough players together to do these large raids.
Blizzard basically wants to make the game accessible to players that are just average. I think thats great, but its an injustice to this game and especially its very skilled players. To bring the raids down to their level of "just average" Rather than bring guilds up to the point of "Fantastic" so they can actually handle "Fantastic" content.
- For example, Take a 40 man, but really toon it to a 35 man. This way a GM can run this large run, but he can still fit in a few of those wives, husbands, children, that don't perform at the level required for Vanilla 40 mans. The largest issues to keep guilds together is people have friends. And they want to raid with friends, but with wow Raids its all or nothing. You either have 40 hardcore players to get the job done, or the guild falls apart. In EQ you could bring 60 great players, and if you had 20 players that were good but not great? Thats OK, the raid could still happen and you could include those players and it wouldn't change the fight.
I am fortunate enough to run a guild that is at the "Top of the Pyramid" now. But it was a bitch to get to that point and it didn't need to be. I for the longest time was, by no choice of my own, the feeder guild for a larger guild on my server. And I had no way of convincing people not to jump. Know why? Cause there was no reason to, there was nothing I could offer them at that stage.
And now that I am in that position of being the top dog. I am flooded with apps from guess what. All the small guilds that are trying to make it below me. And I am stuck, because if I don't take the skilled, geared players below. I will lose my "King of the Hill" spot, and I am not willing to be in that low position again. So in the process of maintaing my spot, I am screwing the rest of the smaller guilds on my server by accepting their skilled applicants, that are looking to jump ship.
I just want everyone to have the opportunity to explore the raid content, and the joy of downing a very difficult encounter with 40 of your closest friends.
So now I am at the point where all the guilds on my faction side of my server are crumbling. And all I want is to grant people all the ability to raid, so I have streched myself to the point where the guild is ballooning, running up to 6 10 mans a week, 2 ICCs, and Three ToCs a week. Its mayhem, but we are the only guild that can semi keep it together, so there is no other option for people on our server.
I want every guild on my server to succeed, help Blizzard!
Anyways, Thoughts, Ideas? I would love perspectives from both ends. GMs trying to keep guilds together. Players that are desperate to find non fail guilds. GMs that are running the top guilds that notice themselves screwing other guilds even if they don't want to. Etc. Etc.
Thanks in advance!

I make this every time I make a holiday ham to use up the leftovers. It smells so wonderful as it cooks and pleases even the so-called pea haters in my family. Simple to prepare too..just chop all your veggies and ham up and toss everything into the pot and cook. No need to soak the peas overnight..just a rinse and drain before cooking.

Exile features Marlon Hargis (keyboards), Les Taylor (guitar/vocals), Sonny LeMaire (bass/vocals), J.P. Pennington (guitar/lead vocals) and Steve Goetzman (drums).
A band with a single on Billboard's Top 10 list of the 50 Sexiest Songs of All Time should be a no-brainer for a Valentine's date.
That 1978 pop-rock ballad, "Kiss You All Over," was followed by a string of country hits in the 1980s. These were sweeter songs, lacking the get-a-room urgency of "Kiss," but they were no less heartfelt. Ten, including "Woke Up in Love" and "Crazy for Your Love," hit No. 1.
Exile, the band responsible for all these love cravings, will perform two shows Sunday at the Lower Level (formerly the Governor's Lounge).
Danny Howard, director of programming for Bahakel Communications' WUUQ-FM, said the booking was a natural fit for Classic Country 97.3/99.3.
"Everyone remembers all the Exile hits and all the fun times they had at the old Governor's site," he said of the band's and the club's 1980s heyday.
The love's not lost on the band. On their website, the musicians say they are proud of the fact they still get along after all these years. They formed in Kentucky as The Exiles in 1963. Club dates led to touring with Dick Clark's Caravan of Stars, opening shows and providing backup for major rock artists of the period.
Their biggest success was the smoldering "Kiss." At No. 9 on the Sexiest Songs chart, it tops five decades' worth of rock, soul, R&B and hip-hop options ranging from steamy slow-burns to rowdy call-outs.
With only minor pop success after "Kiss," Exile re-established in 1983 as a country band and enjoyed chart success through 1991.
In 2008, all five members of the band's original country incarnation -- J.P. Pennington, Sonny LeMaire, Les Taylor, Steve Goetzman and Marlon Hargis -- reunited for a charity concert. An EP of new work and tour dates followed.

Appeals Court Unmoved By Insider-Trader's PrecociousnessBy Jon Shazar
There are all sorts of metrics to determine how bad an insider-trader you were. How many trades did you make on secret information? How many different securities? How much money did you make for/save Steve Cohen? My personal favorite, however, is severity of sentence, and on that count, Matthew Kluger is still the worst insider-trader in U.S. history.
Kluger received the longest insider-trading sentence this side of Raj Rajaratnam, a dozen years, in part because the lawyers who prosecuted him and the lawyer who sentenced him were offended that he was giving lawyers a bad name. Well, the lawyers who decided his appeal concur with their peers. Read more »

About Jody Nakashima
I help discerning families create wonderful vacation memories by staying at my beautiful, spacious house by the beach.
Jody Nakashima purchased this house in 2006
Why Jody Nakashima chose Oceanside
Oceanside is an up and coming beach town without the crazy crowds. It has easy access to I-5 and is a centrally located base to enjoy Southern California attractions like LEGOLAND, Disneyland, San Diego Wild Animal Park, Zoo, and Sea World.
What makes this house unique
The broad, sandy beaches are within a 5-minute walk from our home. The sunsets are awesome! Visit our website and/or Facebook page to see more photos of the beach and fun information
Guestbook comments from the owner
We have stayed at this house for three successive winters (3 months at a time). Every year was just like coming home. Jody is a marvelous host who not only makes you feel at home, but if a problem arises (seldom), she fixes it immediately. She even decorates the house for Christmas including a tree. The house is spacious and comfortable. The extras are above average. The location is great for walking to the beach, movie theater, restaurants, downtown or driving to San Diego and other tourist spots in the area. It is less an an hour to get to the wine country of Temecula. I would highly recommend this house to anyone staying a weekend, a week, a month, or an entire winter. Thanks, Jody for making our winters in California a memorable experience.
