Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Boult was very closely associated with Elgar's music throughout his career and recorded the Second Symphony five times. This live Proms performance recorded in stereo from 1977 'shows Boult in his late 80s working with the passion and energy of a much younger man' (Martin Cotton). His relatively fast tempi are closer to his first recording made in 1944 with the BBCSO. The Overture and Venusberg music from Wagner's Tannhauser are a new addition to the Boult discography and come from a live studio performance in stereo from the Maida Vale Studios in 1968. These are world premier recordings

A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Geoffrey of Monmouth
From Wikisource
|←Geddes, Alexander
|A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature by
Geoffrey of Monmouth
|Gerard, Alexander→
Geoffrey of Monmouth (1100?-1154). -- Chronicler, was probably a Benedictine monk, and became Bishop of St. Asaph. He wrote a Latin History of British Kings. Merlin's Prophecies, long attributed to him, is now held to be not genuine. The history is rather a historical romance than a sober history, and gave scandal to some of the more prosaic chroniclers who followed him. It was subsequently translated into Anglo-Norman by Gaimar and Wace, and into English by Layamon.

Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion" presents us Minnesotans as well intentioned and self-effacing, if a bit stuck in our ways. Real-life Minnesotans know, though, that "Minnesota Nice" masks some self-delusion some passive-aggressive tendencies: in philosopher Louise Antony's words, we can "be very 'nice' and deeply cruel at the same time." This is especially true, it seems, when it comes to the needs of people who have a mental illness. Here are some examples:
NICE: We (modestly) pat ourselves on the back for our high physical health ranking, behind only Vermont and Hawaii. We're not even very modest about our health- and eco-conscious Twin Cities bicycle culture.
NOT SO NICE: At the same time, we leave those with mental health problems out in the cold. Per capita, we have the nation's lowest rate of psychiatric beds, having closed 50% of them in recent years. Outpatient care is under siege, too. A thousand people suddenly lost services in March 2014, when a major provider closed in semi-rural east central Minnesota due to lack of funding.

I'm helpless in the face of tragedy.
I don't know what to say. There's nothing productive that I can do. I try to put myself in the other person's position, but the only thing I'd want is to be left alone. If you can't prevent it or fix it, what's the use of talking about it?
My friend Heather died. I couldn't go to her before she died. I couldn't make it to her memorial service. I didn't have the slightest idea how I could help her husband and daughters in a concrete way. All I could do was think about her — what she meant to me.
I went out running one beautiful day a few weeks ago. As I pounded out the miles, I hatched an idea. Something I could do. Something productive.
I can't bring Heather back. But I can honor her memory and help others in a way that would be meaningful to her (and will hopefully be meaningful to her family and friends).
A couple years ago, I posted on Facebook that not having a tattoo makes me feel rather rebellious. My fellow triathlete Heather quipped, "Waiting for an M-dot?"
I chuckled at that. For me, completing an Ironman triathlon was as unlikely as getting a tattoo.
Or so I thought.
In 2012, I will complete the Boulder Tri Series — the 5430 Sprint Triathlon, the Boulder Peak Triathlon, and the Ironman 70.3 Boulder. I've done the 5430 Sprint three times and the Boulder Peak twice, but this will be my first half Ironman distance race.
How does my goal relate to Heather, apart from our Facebook exchange? Her family requested donations to the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults. So in addition to finishing these three races, I have a fourth goal: To raise $10,000 for the Ulman Fund.
The name of this project is Fit to Be Tried. (Thanks to Kristen for her cleverness!) I've created a fundraising page on ChipIn. Contributions will go to a PayPal account and be transferred to a savings account, both of which I've set up especially for this effort. On August 10, 2012, I will get a cashier's check made out to the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults for every last penny raised between now and then. Whether it's $10 or $10,000, I will be proud of having done something concrete in Heather's honor.
Oh, and the half Ironman for myself. Mustn't forget that.
Over the next ten months, I'll post weekly updates on my training — what I'm learning, where I'm struggling, what's going well and what needs work. There'll probably be a lot of philosophizing too — why I'm doing this and why I think more people ought to do the same.
If you'd like to donate or help spread the word about Fit to Be Tried, I'd be most honored and appreciative. Email me at juliemarsh72 AT gmail DOT com to learn more.

Quaker Brotherhood
Interracial Activism and the American Friends Service Committee, 1917-1950
The links among religion, race relations, and peace activism
The Religious Society of Friends and its service organization, the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), have long been known for their peace and justice activism. The abolitionist work of Friends during the antebellum era has been well documented, and their contemporary anti-war and anti-racism work is familiar to activists around the world. Quaker Brotherhood is the first extensive study of the AFSC's interracial activism in the first half of the twentieth century, filling a major gap in scholarship on the Quakers' race relations work from the AFSC's founding in 1917 to the beginnings of the civil rights movement in the early 1950s.
Allan W. Austin tracks the evolution of key AFSC projects, such as the Interracial Section and the American Interracial Peace Committee, that demonstrate the tentativeness of the Friends' activism in the 1920s, as well as efforts in the 1930s to make scholarly ideas and activist work more theologically relevant for Friends. Documenting the AFSC's efforts to help European and Japanese American refugees during World War II, Austin shows that by 1950 Quakers in the AFSC had honed a distinctly Friendly approach to interracial relations that combined scholarly understandings of race with their religious views.
In tracing the transformation of one of the most influential social activist groups in the United States over the first half of the twentieth century, Quaker Brotherhood presents Friends in a thoughtful, thorough, and even-handed manner. Austin portrays the history of the AFSC and race--highlighting the organization's boldness in some aspects and its timidity in others--as an ongoing struggle that provides a foundation for understanding how shared agency might function in an imperfect and often racist world.
Highlighting the complicated and sometimes controversial connections between Quakers and race during this era, Austin uncovers important aspects of the history of Friends, pacifism, feminism, American religion, immigration, ethnicity, and the early roots of multiculturalism.
"Austin's contribution reminds readers how important religion has been in promoting liberal causes for social justice throughout U.S. History. Recommended."--Choice
"A useful addition to the history of American Quakers' earnest, sometimes troubled, endeavours to achieve racial justice in American Society and peace in the world."--Canadian Journal of History
"Quaker Brotherhood more than succeeds in opening a window into the inner workings of one religious group's halting but no less significant racial journey. In so doing, Austin brings race and religion into fruitful conversation."--Journal of Religion
"Austin's book poses a set of provocative questions that examine the relationship between doctrinal purity and social change."--Indiana Magazine of History
"A beautifully conceived and gracefully executed study of race and the American Friends Service Committee. Situated at the intersection of modern American religion, race relations, and social reform, Quaker Brotherhood engages issues of theology and practice, African American history, and Quakers' tangled experiences with both. With professional and personal grace, Austin points us toward a new Quaker history."--Emma J. Lapsansky-Werner, coeditor of Back to Africa: Benjamin Coates and the Colonization Movement in America, 1848�1880
"Quaker Brotherhood traces the transformation of one of the most influential social activist groups in the United States. Friends have long been recognized for having an impact beyond their relatively small numbers because of their reform activism, yet until now, book-length work on the period after the Civil War has been limited. Allan W. Austin's study is a truly significant contribution to the history of Quakerism, especially the history of Quaker activism."--Thomas D. Hamm, author of The Quakers in America

Los Angeles: The Los Angeles Police Department is mourning the loss of one of their own after the Officer was killed during the crash between a Metrolink Commuter Train and Freight train Friday afternoon.
On September 12, 2008, at approximately 4:30 p.m., Police Officer III Spree Desha, was aboard the Metrolink train that crashed head on into a freight train in Chatsworth. Officer Desha was killed on impact, leaving her family, friends and fellow Officers grieving her loss.
Officer Desha was appointed to the LAPD on February 12, 2001. She worked a variety of assignments, but was most recently assigned to the Office of Operations as a Staff Researcher/Writer.
Officer Desha spent most of her career working in patrol, training new police officers. She was well respected by her colleagues and supervisors alike. For the majority of the past three years Officer Desha worked out of North Hollywood Community Police Station. The men and woman who worked with her there have perhaps been hit hardest by her sudden loss. North Hollywood Patrol Captain, Sharyn Buck expressed deep regret and sadness on behalf of the entire Division, "Officer Desha was a model officer. She will be sorely missed by those of us who had the privilege to know and work with her."
During her seven years of service Officer Desha had received thirty four commendations for performance and qualities that reflected her professionalism, attention to duty, productivity, and ability to connect with the community in positive ways. During one rating period her supervisor wrote, "She approached her new assignment with enthusiasm and anticipation…She is an extremely effective officer."
Funeral arrangements are pending.

Youngsters' pictures, poems decry city gun violence
BY JON SEIDEL Staff Reporter June 3, 2014 11:38AM
Gabriela Velaquez of De La Salle Institute winning artwork on gun violence was called No Community has Immunity. The Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence hosted the19th Annual "Student Voices" Contest awards ceremony honoring students from first to 12th grade for their winning artwork, essays and poetry on gun violence at Rachel Carson Elementary in Chicago on June 3, 2014. | Al Podgorski / Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: July 5, 2014 6:18AM
Two paths.
One journey is through high school and college — and puts "the world in your hands," said Bridgeport Academy North first-grader Mariano Sandoval.
But the second one ends in jail.
Describing a picture he drew, the youngster said the difference is playing around — or killing someone — with a gun.
"You decide your future," Sandoval said, drawing applause Tuesday morning from the audience at Rachel Carson Elementary School in Gage Park.
Sandoval was among 17 winners of the 19th Annual Student Voices Contest held by the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence. They shared their essays, poems and artwork decrying gun violence .
They did so less than 10 miles from a South Shore laundromat where six people were shot Monday night, including two boys, ages 14 and 16.
The children who participated in this year's contest ranged from first graders to high school seniors. And while the deadline for entries passed in February, it seemed as though some students could have been talking about the news overnight.
"I want you to — just for a second — to think about those people," wrote Liliana Tirado, a Rachel Carson eighth-grader. "Those people who today had to go up to their child or their sister, or mother or father. Look them in the eyes and tell them the cold truth of a victim, today gone, because of gun violence."
Nia Thompson, a 10th-grader at De La Salle Institute, wrote a poem titled, "As We Begin."
"Gun violence is a disease that cannot be treated," Thompson wrote. "You can be here today and gone tomorrow, leaving many parents in sorrow. A mother is supposed to die before her daughter. Nowadays, our young men and women are dying before their fathers."
Daley Elementary Academy seventh-grader Marlene Bahena's artwork featured people playing in Cornell Square Park, where 13 people were wounded, including a 3-year-old boy in a shooting last year. But it also depicted a person weeping, and the words, "People live with more fear."
The artwork from Braulio Nila, also a seventh-grader at Daley Academy, showed children in their homes afraid to go outside. "Because of gun violence, kids live like prisoners," it said.
"Are we safe to go out? Will I be next?" a child in the picture says.
Finally, third-grader David Luna of Bridgeport Academy — whose mother is a retired Chicago police lieutenant — wrote in his essay that gun violence "makes people afraid to do fun things in their community."
"But gun violence is not OK," Luna wrote. "I want to have a future that is safe. I want to watch good things on the news. I want to feel safe in my school.
"I want my mom to be safe at work.
"Gun violence is not good for our future."

ChordsTabsTabs v2
Ok. Am I crazy or what. There is this song on David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust : The Movie (live) called My Death, it is a cover of a Jacques Brel song apparently. It is the coolest acoustic song, yet I can find it nowhere in netland. I have tried to tab it myself, but I am just a beginner and I fear that it is being played in some wierd tuning (very minor-gothic sound). If you haven't heard this song, check it out, its worth the price of the cassette itself. I will include here the lyrics so that someone may be inspired to help me out. MY DEATH -- David Bowie ----------------------- My Death waits like and older wine So confident I'll go his way Whistles ahead and the passing time My Death waits like a beggar blind Who sees the world through an unlit mind Throw him a dime for the passing time My Death waits there between your thighs Your cool fingers will close my eyes Let's pick lilacs for the passing time.... But whatever lies behind the door There is nothing much to do Angel or Devil I don't care For in front of that door there is you My Death waits there among the flowers Where the blackest shadow blackest shadow cowers Let's not think about the passing time My Death waits there in a double bed Sailors of oblivion at my head So pull up the sheets against the passing time....

The Tanney Passing Academy (TPA) originated five years ago, after Illinois High School Football Coaches Association (IHSFCA) Hall of Fame Coach Don Tanney retired from his 28 year high school coaching career. Soon after his retirement, Coach Tanney's passion for improving young football player's skills on the field and influencing their character off the field, led to the creation of TPA. Throughout the past five years, Coach Tanney and his sons, Mitch Tanney and Alex Tanney (current NFL QB), have been helping mold the careers of junior high and high school players across the state of Illinois.
Now teamed up with his son Alex, who is entering his 3rd NFL season, TPA is on pace to be the premiere quarterback and wide receiver camp in the Midwest. WIth the collaboration of Don's coaching knowledge and Alex's standout college and professional playing experience, TPA offers athletes from junior high to high school an opportunity to have one-on-one coaching from two different perspectives within the game.

Don't come to Colorado Springs....please!!!!!!!!
- 1Jan 11, '12 by LuLu2008Attention new grauates, military spouses and nurses thinking of relocating to Colorado Springs. We have a surplus of RN's here and it is difficult to get a job. Please stay away so those of us who are here will have a fighting chance of finding work!
- 12Jan 11, '12 by churchsgirlI honestly find this very rude! Being a military spouse, I do not get the choice of where to relocate. I've read your previous threads, and it appears that you are employed; so why the post?????Last edit by churchsgirl on Jan 11, '12
- 8Jan 11, '12 by PrettyladieThis makes no sense at all. What audacity do you have to tell others not to locate to your area. This has to be the dumbest thread I've ever read. People are fighting for jobs all over the United States. I don't know what strange motive you have behind this post but its very vindictive and unprofessional. If you are that weary of competition it would behoove you to step up your game. Even if people didn't relocate I doubt that would lessen the competition or better your chances of getting a job with an attitude like yours. If you thought this was being helpful its not...that's like saying please everyone on Allnurses please don't apply to Job X because I really want it...thanks for understanding. Get real. Crazy crazy crazy. As far as military spouses you should know better...military families go where they have orders....hey OP next time dont post just tell Obama and the govt to make sure he puts no more military in Colorado.......
- 2Feb 3, '12 by hello sammiStay away so those of us here can find work....
really?? I don't want to be an ******* so I'm going to assume you're joking.
- 4Feb 7, '12 by NickiLaughsIs she aware that it's not just her particular area? I'm pretty sure military have to go where they're told. In regards to everyone else, well they're going to apply wherever they can in the country, and that includes Colorado Springs.
- 0Feb 7, '12 by NickiLaughsOn that note don't come to California either
- 0Feb 13, '12 by LuLu2008Hello, fellow nurses....Yes, I wrote the comment about not coming to Colorado Springs "tongue in cheek" --and of course did not mean it in a rude or audacious manner! Naturally, I know that military spouses do not have a choice of locations!
This was obviously a very feeble effort to make a statement about the job market here for RN's, and I am sorry if I offended anybody!Last edit by LuLu2008 on Feb 13, '12 : Reason: grammar and syntax
- 0Feb 24, '12 by hello sammiAh! Understood! Well, we must get to know one another better so your humor isn't lost on me =]
A lot are probably touchy because you're right about the job market. super competitive and limited. It's really depressing!
I didn't mean to jump down your throat and I apologize.
- 0Feb 26, '12 by LuLu2008Quote from hello sammiThanks, Sammi for understanding. I happen to be a military wife and know the choices we have to make. Best always, LuLuAh! Understood! Well, we must get to know one another better so your humor isn't lost on me =]
A lot are probably touchy because you're right about the job market. super competitive and limited. It's really depressing!
I didn't mean to jump down your throat and I apologize.
- 0Feb 26, '12 by hello sammiMy husband is at Fort Carson as well. I'm even considering witching my major from pre-nursing to pre-pharmacy...The PharmD program is a lot less competitive [in comparison to nursing]. It's really rough for nurses out here.
How long have you been here in the springs?

A US citizen has been jailed for two and a half years by Thai authorities for translating excerpts of a locally banned biography of King Bhumibol Adulyadej and posting them online.
Joe Gordon, a Colorado resident who was born in Thailand, had pleaded guilty in October to using the internet to disseminate information that insulted the monarchy, charges stemming from material posted on his blog in the US.
"The defendant is found guilty ... The court sentenced him to five years in prison. But he pleaded guilty. That makes the case easier, so the court decided to cut it in half to two years and six months," a judge said at a criminal court in Bangkok on Thursday.
Before the verdict was read out, Gordon told reporters: "I'm not Thai, I'm American. I was just born in Thailand. I hold an American passport. In Thailand there are many laws that don't allow you to express opinions but we don't have that in America."
He was arrested in May when he visited Thailand for medical treatment.
He initially denied the charges, but said he changed his plea to guilty after being repeatedly refused bail.
Tough lese-majeste law
The US has expressed concern over the use of Thailand's lese-majeste law.
US officials have repeatedly urged the Thai authorities to ensure freedom of expression, and said the decision to prosecute Gordon was disappointing.
Lerpong's lawyer, Anon Nampa, said there would be no appeal against the verdict. "One month from now, we'll submit a request for a royal pardon," he added.
Other foreigners who have fallen foul of the lese-majeste law in recent years have tended to spend a short period in jailbefore being pardoned. Thais have not got off so lightly, one recently getting 20 years for text messages deemed offensive.
Thailand has the world's toughest laws protecting its monarch against defamation. The number of lese-majeste cases, especially those lodged by the military, has jumped in recent years, coinciding with a period of political turbulence in the country.
Critics say the law is being abused to discredit activists and politicians.
The generals who overthrew former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in 2006 cited his alleged disrespect for the monarchy among other reasons.
King Bhumibol, 84, is the world's longest-reigning monarch and is revered as semi-divine by many Thais.

Guests in Our Home.
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 07-14-2013 - 10:08pm
Recently my hubby and I have had desagreements regardign the conduct of guests in our home. He has a friend who comes in the evenings to run with him. I have had to set a limit on how late this friend stays on weeknights because one night he was here until midnight. 10:00 if we have work in the morning this friend must go home.
Also, I am uncomfortable with how this friend acts when over, He helps himself to out fride/pantry and I end up feeling the need to keep an eye out to make sure he doesn't eat our dinner for the week (I plan menus and shop ahead). My husband sees nothing wrong with this. For me it would be different if he was just helping himself to a drink, but I don't think he should be helping himself to out meat and other items I bought with the intention of using them for our dinner that week. My husband said he was embarrased when I took a pack of chicken strips from his friend and told him that was for our dinner this week. We just bought a house and I am trying to keep our spending down...we can't afford to just let people raid our fridge.
I also get anxious about people just going through our fridge/ cupboard unless they are family, I would not even like my friends doing these things. Im I over reacting?
I am very anxious because he is having a bunch of people over soon for some gaming, I am afraid of being eaten out of house and home.
It is 10:00 now and his friend is still here, passed the time my husband agreed to. I have already dropped hints that it is time for his friend to go so we can wind our weekend down and prepare for the work week. Can anyone offer any advice? I am completely new to this hosting guests thing, we only bought out house a few months ago...Is it my conduct that is wrong?
We did off the friend fruit and granola bard (we dont keep anything unhealthy) but he said it wasnt good enough,

I also get anxious about people just going through our fridge/ cupboard unless they are family, I would not even like my friends doing these things. Im I over reacting?
Uhm, no. My family (i.e., sisters, mother) doesn't do that, and I don't do that when I go to their house. EVER. Even when I was a teen and went to my best friend's house up the block — which was like a second home to me (I even called my friend's mother Mom) — I never, ever went into their fridge/cupboards unless I asked or was asked to.
IMO you need to have a discussion with your husband that goes along the lines of "Make sure your friend eats before he arrives and/or brings his own snack. If he's going to hang out for a while, make sure you have things accessible for him, I don't want him rooting through our stuff." Your husband is the one who needs to set the boundaries with the friend.

I had already warned my husband I would say something, as I did with the chicken. This man comes over after dinner, I do not feel obligated to feed him. Drinks are a gives seeing as they are running and coming after dinner he should come fed in my opinion. He is the type that is perpetually hungry though, I'd much rather he asked before just helping himself to whatever he wants. Then I can tell him what is fair gain. I would up giving the ok to a pack of hotdogs we needed to be rid of out of guilt.
edit: Just spoke to the hubby about this and he said he had already told his friend the chicken was off limits, he had already checked out menu for the week. I told him from now on we will tell the friend fruit, granola bars, and a few other things that he can eat. If he doesn't like that he can stay hungry.
Good to know that I wasn't being unreasonable though. I am a generally anxious person (I have GAD) so I have a hard time judging when I am over reacting.

"We did off the friend fruit and granola bard (we dont keep anything unhealthy) but he said it wasnt good enough,"
That's when I would show this so-called friend to the door and say then I guess it's time you went to your home...
My now ex-mil threw my sil out when she was a pregnant teen, she stayed with us my ex-husband and I and our new-born dd.
Her much older b/f always made comments similar to your husband's friend, finally I told him if what we had or were offering wasn't good enough he could take her to his place...his parents...
He thought he could tell us what she should be eating where she should be sleeping and thought nothing of over-staying his Welcome...I had enough...
My now ex would not stand up to him but I did...;)...

Friendly Eyes Watching Over Your Driving
Intelligent cars will report accidents to authorities - Telegraph
Intelligent cars fitted with aircraft-style black boxes that can send video footage and information about driving behaviour during accidents to the police and insurance companies are being developed by computer scientists.
Remember your car may well already have a "black box" which is ready to grass you up...
Automobile Crash Event Data Recorder Some airbag modules have an added feature that allows them to store sensor data received by the module during an airbag deployment or near-deployment. These airbag modules, equipped with a Event Data Recorder (EDR) function, are often referred to as a "Black Box." Although, the airbag module is not a " Black Box", in the true sense of the term, this descriptor helps simplify the explanation of this device. Airbag modules with this EDR function do not record large amounts of data over long periods of time. However, they do record data from up to six sensors for a period of up to five seconds before an impact.
You are being watched as you drive.

Miranda Kerr was recently spotted at the David Jones AMEX Press Conference with straight layered locks.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Use a large paddle brush to blow hair straight, focusing on keeping the roots smooth and polished.
Step 2: Use a medium barrel curling iron to coil 1-½ inch locks of hair. Then, finger comb the curls to create undone waves.
Step 3: Set with hairspray.

In this new highly revised and expanded edition of a Chelsea Green classic, authors Henderson and Van En provide new insight into making Community Supported Agriculture not only a viable economic model, but the right choice for food lovers and farmers alike.
To an increasing number of American families the CSA (community supported agriculture) is the answer to the globalization of our food supply. The premise is simple: create a partnership between local farmers and nearby consumers, who become members or subscribers in support of the farm. In exchange for paying in advance at the beginning of the growing season when the farm needs financing, CSA members receive the freshest, healthiest produce throughout the season and keep money, jobs, and farms in their own community.
Thinking and buying local is quickly moving from a novel idea to a mainstream activity. The groundbreaking first edition helped spark a movement and, with this revised edition, Sharing the Harvest is poised to lead the way toward a revitalized agriculture.

I can feel the pain - lets see if it returns to its old usable simplicity. I've been there with a software company when you have got it wrong, I can imagine the screaming and frantic activity as they have read the barrage of criticism. So praise to them for recognizing that their months of hard work, innovative thinking and big plans got it wrong so quickly. Don't you just love the way market pressure works - never hear a politician recant so quickly. I hope for their sake they manage to get it right quickly and salvage something from this debacle.

Gov. Perry: Tejano Monument Reflects Longtime Contributions of Hispanics to Our Great State
Thank you Rep. [Richard] Raymond for that introduction and for the important work you did in helping make this happen.
I am honored to be here today, just as I was honored when I put pen to paper and signed the legislation authorizing this monument in 2001.
Has it really been that long?
Well, if anything's worth doing, it's worth doing right, and let me just say to the sculptor, Armando Hinojosa, my friend, you've done it right.
I may not know all that much about art, but I know what I like.
Today, this important monument joins the ages here on the beautiful grounds of the most beautiful Capitol building in the United States of America.
The fact we are here today at all, however, is testament to the vision of Dr. [Cayetano] Barrera who toured the grounds one day in 2000 and realized something was missing.
We are here today because of the talent and skill of Mr. Hinojosa who fashioned from metal and stone a reflection of how we began as a culture and a state, and where we, together, are heading.
Filling the gap between inspiration and dedication, we are here today because of immense long hours of hard work put in by those who believed this monument was long past due.
The full list of contributors could run pages from the legislators who first introduced bills to the staffers who figured out ways to make it happen to those who kept laboring as we worked out all the details, including where this monument would ultimately stand.
I think it looks great here, by the way.
Also worthy of mention are the folks at the Preservation Board, the Texas Historical Commission and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
I commend everyone involved for a job exceptionally well done.
This is an important monument because it reflects a larger truth about the origins of Texas, about the contributions of so many Hispanic citizens to the creation of the state we love, and the lives we share.
These contributions are ongoing with Latinos providing political, business and spiritual leadership in communities throughout Texas.
And these contributions will continue as younger generations are inspired by the examples of those who went before them and move to place their own mark on the state, and the world, they inherit.
That's particularly important in a state where roughly a third of our citizens identify themselves as Hispanic, making them part of what will be Texas' largest demographic group within this decade.
As I've said before, the future of Texas is tied directly to the future of our Hispanic population, and I believe we have a glorious future ahead of us.
We have a glorious future because no matter the color of our skin, no matter the spelling of our last name, and no matter where our parents originally came from, we all have so much in common.
We share the desire for safe neighborhoods for our families and for the opportunity to succeed based on our own merit.
We share the core values of family, faith and hard work.
We share the dream of security in our future and better lives for our children.
Hispanic children, as always, have the benefit of a wide range of role models to inspire them.
They can look up to our first Latina Secretary of State, Hope Andrade, our first Latina on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, Justice Elsa Alcala, and, of course, our first Latina on the Texas Supreme Court, Justice Eva Guzman, who's with us today.
They can aspire to be the next Francisco Cigarroa, Chancellor of the UT System, Bishop Joe Vasquez of the Austin Diocese, Commissioner Andres Alcantar at the Texas Workforce Commission, or Elaine Mendoza, a member of the Board of Regents at Texas A&M.
Of course, that doesn't even scratch the surface. Role models are everywhere.
Every day, Hispanic Texans are presiding in board rooms, providing solace and spiritual guidance in churches and teaching boys and girls in classrooms everywhere.
They're walking a beat to protect our communities, holding rifles in defense of our country in Afghanistan and other potential hotspots, and running toward the flames when a fire breaks out.
Just like the early Texas settlers of Spanish and Mexican descent depicted here, they're doing the jobs that need to be done and carving a life for themselves, while ensuring a better life for others.
Once again, I'm honored to be a part of this valuable piece of Texas history and offer the thanks of a grateful state to everyone involved in making this happen.
May God bless you and, through you, may he continue to bless the Great State of Texas.

You don't get to low priority with simply the amount of reports.
You don't get to low priority with simply the amount of reports.
It doesn't matter how many reports there are - it depends on the severity of the "offence" you committed.
It will take exactly one valid report to get into low priority. The likelihood of getting reviewed after receiving only one report however is slim to none.
Got to love those 4-5 man stacks acting all high and mighty after they reported for nothing. Just laugh in their faces and move on, nothing will happen (assuming you didn't do anything wrong, of course).

One way to get into low priority is if u abandon a game and get reported by some guys(perhaps 2+) for that then u will probably end up in low priority.
Though i heard u have to have abandoned like 2 games in 10 for this to happened
I don't think flaming get you punished though because if that was the case, like 50% of dota 2 players would be in low priority XD
Last edited by EmbraceTheDark; 08-11-2012 at 02:35 AM.
you probably got way more reports than those four that you didn't know about
the human mind tends to keep moments when the person shines
and discards the ones where they did wrong

The Book Booth is a weekly feature at The Political Carnival, relating news, notes, and reflections from the world of books and publishing. SeattleDan, along with his wife, SeattleTammy, are operators of both an on-line bookstore, as well a brick and mortar in small town Washington State. Both have been in the book business since shortly after the Creation, or close to 6000 years now.
April, which can be either have showers sweet or be the cruelest month, depending on your attitude, is National Poetry Month. Whenever it rolls around, it makes me feel guilty as I don't read nearly enough of the stanzaic art. But I do have a copy of Kenneth Fearing's Selected Poetry on the nightstand, and I will read it soon and assuage my guilt.
If you, too, are behind on reading verse, check out Flavorwire's 50 most essential poetry books. These are good suggestions and any list that includes Shel Silverstein on an essential anything has got to be pretty good.
It has been nearly forty years since I read Kenneth Koch's Wishes, Lies and Dreams, about teaching the craft of poetry writing to inner city children. One hopes that poetry is still taught in schools and Andrew Simmons at the Atlantic makes a compelling argument for it being done so.
Although not a poet per se, John Steinbeck had a way with words and is neglected these days, at least by academic critics. Not so with Susan Shillinglaw who has this appreciation of thirteen of his novels at Publishers Weekly.
William Faulkner, on the other hand, did indulge in writing poetry, but obviously is now much more regarded as a novelist. ABE Books had this feature on Faulkner with some great book jacket art.
For science fiction fans that are looking for something new, io9 had these suggestions for neglected writers. I have to admit that I have not heard of, much less read, some of these authors.
Many authors are plagued at seminars and readings by the question, where do you get your ideas? It is a question most writers dread getting because they don't remember or they just seem to happen. Stephen King, however, can answer that question, at least in part, in this short essay on how he came up the idea for Carrie.
On the good news front, Kazuo Ishiguro will publish his first new novel, The Buried Giant, in March of 2015. He has not published one since 2005, so this comes as welcome news. And if you have not read his Remains of the Day, go do so right now. We'll wait for you.
In sadder news, last week saw the passing of Peter Matthiessen at age 86. Although probably best known as wonderful nature writer, he was a fine novelist and I cannot recommend At Play in the Fields of the Lord enough. The New York Times ran this obituary.
Banned Books Week wont happen again until next October. But for those who'd like to plan ahead, Cory Doctorow over at BoingBoing has a fashion tip here!
Finally, of all the book accessories available, I think the book plate is my favorite. You can use darn near anything as a bookmark (grocery receipts serve us well around here), but the plate is personal. HuffPo had some examples of some beauties here.
Please enjoy this weekend. Read some poetry. And by all means, let us know what book is delighting you!

Yesterday LRC featured Nicholas von Hoffman asking Are Critics of Israel Smeared as Anti-Semites? I think it is important to remember that this is just a variant on a general type of smear. A parallel example would be calling critics of the U.S. government (especially during a "crisis") "anti-American". Due to the changing winds of PC fashion, "anti-semite" is currently a better smear than calling someone a Communist sympathizer (though that worked pretty well about 50 years ago) and probably a bit more effective than "anti-American".
The confused thinking that allows for this particular type of smear is the loss of the sharp libertarian distinction between society and the state. Even if the distinction is retained, many people seem to have trouble grasping that the best interests of the society and the state might be at cross purposes. It is vitally important that this confusion be attacked whenever it rears its ugly head. Otherwise we waste our time arguing over who really loves Americans (or who really loves Jews or whatever) rather than the real issues: Is the policy under discussion just? Is the policy under discussion in the best interests of the society it's supposed to benefit? Or is it just another boondoggle that will grow the State at the expense of the people?
As a personal note, I might also add that it's preferable to avoid the "who really loves/hates the American/Jewish/whatever people" kinds of discussions because they're BORING!

Canyon Strive large$1000 GPB
2013 Canyon Strive size L, standard basic model except bar and stem which are 780mm superstar bar and 50mm stem. Full spec should be on canyon website. Selling to fund new smaller travel trail/xc bike as this is generally overkill for most of my rides (trail centres). Will post at buyers expense.

Canyon Strive large$1250 GPB
Last year's base model Canyon Strive size large, good condition not used very regularly so almost like new bar a few small scratches under the down tube no cracks/dents or damage of any kind. Stock except for a wider bar and shorter stem. Selling as this bike is overkill for 90% of my riding- its mainly used at North Wales trail centres where it does fine but my old hard tail is better suited. On the odd trip to real mountains it has performed brilliantly. I can meet at any North Wales trail centres or deliver within UK. Photos to come.

Ragley Blue Pig X 18inch$300 GPB
Ragley Blue Pig X 18 inch- selling as its not seen any use since i bought my full sus. Frame is in good condition, no cracks/dents and will fit riders around the 6ft mark- I'm 6'2 and found it to be a good fit. I have owned the frame from new and mainly used it around North Wales trail centres. Parts are nothing special but will get the job done- mostly donated by my old NS Core 1; marzocchi 55 (basic coil model- rebound and pre load adjustment), NS wheels, avid elixir 5. Rear wheel needs a new spkke and chain fitting- which i can sort depending on offer. Bike will otherwise be as seen with some ergon grips thrown in. I will ship at buyers expense or can meet around Llandudno area or at the following trail centres: Llandegla, Marin/Penmachno, Coed Y Brenin

D-Form is a tool that allows the user to distort and modify figures in ways the original object modeler may have never intended. It is also a way to help make fitted figures fit their parent figures better, without the need to open the figure in a modeling program and modify it. It works by taking a user-defined area of the model (in groups of what are called vertices), and distorting them at whatever extents and directions the user wishes.
Some of the ways D-Form can be handy in your artistic endeavors are.
- To make clothing and hair fit better on a figure by eliminating "r;poke-through"
- To give a figure a set of horns or other appendages without the need to load and position props
- To give a figure a unique personality
- To change the state of a figure's "r;condition", such as making a female (or male?) figure appear to be pregnant
- To give the illusion of a harder surface pushing into a softer surface (such as a parent's fingers pinching a baby's cheeks.)
The possibilities are as boundless and endless as your imagination.
Choose View > Tabs > D-Form to open the D-Form tab.
How D-Form Works
D-Form works by setting up a field of effect on the surface of an object. This field affects the vertices of an object. You can use the spline editor (explained later in this chapter) to adjust the amount of effect that the field exerts on each vertex. You can see the effect of the field before and during manipulation of the D-Former. When you move or scale any element of the D-Former, the vertices in the affected region change position. The change depends on the size and shape of the field, the distance that you move it, and the amount of effect applied on each vertex.
To add a D-Former to an object, select the object that you want to deform, then choose Create > New D-Former.

very realistic detail
By Sunbringer
from Kansas
These bushes lasted well through our hot Kansas summer last year. Very realistic flowers but the leaves succumbed to being a light aqua color. Would better last indoors or under porch eaves, perhaps.

The color of the leaves are a little faded. The flower color is good. They are in a pot on a deck facing east so should hold their color. We will see.

I use these on my deck for fall. They will be great for the time between frost and holiday decorating.

Below are frequently asked questions by our members. If you have a question not found below, email our Membership Chair, at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Why did I receive an message from PayPal that my auto-renewal payment was canceled?
Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers is moving to a new membership and event management application this month. Over the next few weeks we will help you access your new account on the new application.
On Tuesday, December 9th we turned off auto-renewal payments in PayPal because we will no longer process payment through PayPal. We apologize to those of you who received payment cancellation notices from PayPal before we notified you via email about this change. What this means is that PayPal will no longer charge your debit/credit card annual membership renewal fees if you had set up auto-renewal. You are still an active member and can still log into your account on the website.
On Monday, December 15th you will receive an email with instructions on how to log into your new account on the new application. You will then have the opportunity to take a look at the new event manager and to update your profile information.
Also note that membership renewals for members who lapsed in November and December have been pushed out to 1/31/15. After members have settled into the new application, we will email instructions to renew memberships.
Thank you for your patience! If you have any questions, please email email@example.com AND firstname.lastname@example.com.
Sorry for any inconveniences!

I can't log in. Who do I contact for help?
Members having trouble logging in, please contact our Membership Chair, at email@example.com. Non-members cannot log into our website.
How do I update my profile and member information?
First make sure you're logged on. Then look in the right column and find your name and avatar. Click on 'Edit My Profile' under your avatar. A window will pop up with your profile information. Update your information as needed and save your changes.
If the profile window does not pop up, click here to open the window in a new browser tab.

Event Registration
I can't pay for an event. Can I register and pay by alternative methods?
Yes. Look for the contact information on the event's page and contact the leader for help registering.
Email Communications
Why am I not receiving email communication from RMFW?
New members are added to our email distribution list within one day of becoming a member. There are a number of reasons why you are not receiving email.
1. Some email providers are extra stringent with mass communications emails such as the emails RMFW sends to members and subscribers.
- First check your Spam folder. If you find our communications there, mark the email as 'not spam' and you should receive future emails in your inbox. You may have to do this a few times.
- Add the following email addresses to your contact list: email@example.com, email@example.com, email@example.com. This tells your email provider that you trust the sender.
- If you still do not receive our emails, understand that we cannot stop email providers from rejecting emails from the email campaign provider we use. Your only alternative may be to receive emails from us at another email address or use our website to find out about RMFW news and events.
2. If you unsubscribed at any point from RMFW email, you put yourself on our 'Do Not Mail' list. Our volunteers cannot add you back onto our distribution list. You must add yourself back onto the list by clicking here.
3. If you are still not receiving emails after addressing 1 and 2 above, email email@example.com for additional assistance.
NOTE: Some email providers will still not accept mass emails. Know that all of the information we distribute via email is also available here on our website. See the Home page and Members page for all up to date announcements.
How do I change the email address in which I receive emails from RMFW?
Go to the bottom of any email you've received from us and click on 'Update Profile/Email Address.' Follow the instructions to update your email address and other profile information.
If you are unable to update your own email address, send a request to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Members Directory
Why am I not on the Members Directory Page?
Our Membership Directory does not update automatically. Our Membership Chair and Website Liaison try very hard to update the directory at the beginning of a new month, but they are volunteers and sometimes other duties may delay the update. Please allow up to one month, depending on your membership start date, to show up on the list.
If your membership started prior to the last update of the list, your membership information may be missing from the directory because 'Include my email address in the online Members Directory' in your profile is set to 'No'. Here's how to add yourself to the directory:
1. Log in and click on 'Edit My Profile' under your gravatar.
2. Page down and change 'Include my email address in the online Members Directory' to 'Yes'.
3. Save your changes.
Again, allow up to one month for your information to show up in the Members Directory.
How do I become a RMFW Volunteer?
All the information you need to become a volunteer is on the Volunteer page.

Jack Parow is Cooler than You.
Jack Parow is Cooler than You.
Read it and believe it. Jack Parow is cooler than you and he has the kiefness to prove it, 27 764 fans on Facebook and 24 250 fans for the song Cooler as Ekke; now that's impressive stuff.
His kiefness has also translated into his self-titled album, which will be out at end of March. He is set to collaborate with Inge Beckman (Lark), Francois van Coke (Fokofpolisiekar & Van Coke Kartel), Die Heuwels Fantasties and others on this album. Are you ready for it?
You can also look for an online video game (yes, a online video game-can you get any cooler)? If that's not enough he also has a high budget music video for Dans Dans Dans ft Francois van Coke in store.
Floating around on the interwebs is 'A tribute to Jack Parow, Witbank Style – Damduikers'. The saying seeing is believing is evident in this case. You have to check it out!
His kiefness is rubbing off internationally: WKDU 91.7 FM is playing Parow in Philadelphia and so is 3 FM in Holland. Record labels from America, Europe and Australia are interested in signing Jack Parow and coolest of all Mike Diamond from the Beastie Boys thinks his tunes are kief.
You might want to head to one of his upcoming gigs (just so you can say you've seen him and his crazy hats):
6 March - Ramfest, Jhb
10 March – Cool Runnings, Boxburg
11 March – Cool Runnings, Jhb
12 March – Back 2 Basics, Jhb
13 March – Prawn Fest, Cape Town
19 March – Your LMG Party, Mercury
26 March – Blizzards , Cape Town
30 April - Robertson, Cape town
yours in musical madness

Making more waves in international waters… me thinks the floodgates have finally opened!
Agreed! It's also been widely agreed that he has more staying power than Die Antwoord and things are looking up. plus he's just kief.
Ey man what about VANDERBIJLPARK??? people here love him, and would love to see him live!!!!
A game? I've always wanted to see Afrikaans games though. Could he start a trend?
I'll find out more details about the game and get back to you, I think he could indeed start a trend-it would be rather cool if he did…
This is going to be huge in Holland. I'm pretty sure it will be a nr 1 hit when released over here.
Cool to see Afrikaans music taking off over here, Die Antwoord getting massive airplay.
i agree with "Dutch". Die Antwoord, Jack's "Cooler as Ekke" and Locnville's "Sun in my pocket" are getting massive in Belgium too. Hope to see them at our summer festivals.
Good to hear that they're making international waves!
