Daniel Ebbers, director of the Pacific Opera Institute, will be a featured vocalist in "Voices of Light: The Passion of Joan Arc," which will be performed at UC Berkeley this month and at Pacific later this year.
Unique Live Performance of Silent Film Soundtrack Coming to Berkeley, Pacific"Voices of Light" will Feature Professor Daniel Ebbers
When the lights are turned down low and the movie starts in Zellerbach Hall at University of California at Berkeley on March 31, audience members might think that they are hearing a unique soundtrack to a long-lost silent film. What they probably won't know is that they will be hearing a voice from University of the Pacific.
UC Berkeley is hosting a performance of "Voices of Light: The Passion of Joan Arc." The show, part of the Cal Performances series, features the 1928 silent film "The Passion of Joan of Arc." But the movie won't be accompanied by an organist or pianist, as would have been done when it originally was shown in theaters. The music to this screening will be provided live by the Baltimore Symphony under the direction of famed conductor Marin Alsop, and with several vocal soloists - including Pacific's own Daniel Ebbers
Ebbers, director of Pacific's Opera Institute, said it is an honor to perform with one of the great orchestras in the United States under the direction of a famous conductor, especially in a piece that is fast becoming one of the most oft performed compositions of the 20th Century. He also said that those in the Central Valley who can't make the performance should not worry. The show will be coming to Pacific in the fall. The performance at Pacific will also feature internationally acclaimed early music vocal quartet Anonymous 4.
"The Conservatory is collaborating with Gender Studies, and several other academic areas to present a number of lectures, presentations and performances celebrating the 600 year anniversary of the birth of Joan of Arc," Ebbers said. "For me, this production will be the highlight of that week because the film and the music together create one of the most emotional experiences I have ever been a part of."
"Voices of Light: The Passion of Joan Arc," was written by composer Richard Einhorn in 1994, after he saw the original film and was moved by it. The movie had only been rediscovered in 1981, stashed away in a closet of a Norwegian mental hospital. It apparently had been ordered by a doctor in 1930 and then forgotten. Until that discovery, film historians thought that every known copy of the film had been lost to fires or degraded due to mishandling and bad storage.
Filmed in 1927 and released in 1928, "The Passion's" stark elegance and innovative use of camera angles and close-ups reverberated through the artistic community, securing its place even today as one of the greatest films ever made. The film debuted just eight years after Joan of Arc's canonization. The rediscovered version was digitally restored to pristine condition after 20,320 splices, scratches, cue marks and other imperfections were removed.
The film tells the story of Joan of Arc. Born an illiterate farm girl, she became France's 15th century mystic-warrior "Maid of Orleans." In the midst of the Hundred Years War between England and France, Joan was told by "voices of light" that she had been given a divine mission to reunite France. Believing she was on a mission from God, the 17-year-old rallied French troops to important victories before being captured by the English and turned over to an ecclesiastical court composed of French clerics who supported the English. Although she was a devout Catholic, Joan of Arc chose to honor her personal relationship with God over her duty to organized religion. The Catholic Church put her on trial for heresy, excommunicated her and then had her burned at the stake.
Some 100 years later, Martin Luther would pick up this thread and ignite the Protestant movement. In 1920, nearly 500 years after her death, Joan was declared a Catholic saint, the only saint who was first excommunicated and burned.
University of the Pacific will host the performance on Oct. 20 in Faye Spanos Concert Hall. More information about the show, the week of events leading up to it, as well as how to get tickets will be posted later this year on the Conservatory of Music web site at http://www.pacific.edu/Academics/Schools-and-Colleges/Conservatory-of-Music.html.

04/03/2013 World Premiere in Geneva: Land Rover installs the world's first 9-speed automatic passenger car transmission from ZF
- Developed for front-transverse drivelines
- ZF's transmission innovation considerably cuts fuel consumption
- World premiere at the 83rd International Motor Show in Geneva
ZF launches the world's first 9-speed automatic transmission (9HP) for passenger cars with front-transverse engines. Its particular features: great efficiency thanks to a high gear spread with close gear stepping, compact design, a smart modular kit principle, and high-speed and comfortable gearshifts. These benefits convinced Land Rover, the British premium car manufacturer: ZF's new 9-speed automatic transmission stages its first volume production performance in a Land Rover later in 2013.
"We are delighted about the market launch of our latest transmission innovation, the new 9-speed automatic transmission for front-transverse applications. This is a new success chapter for our long-standing cooperation with Land Rover", says Dr. Gerhard Wagner, Member of the Board of Management responsible for the Powertrain Technology division at ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
The 9HP, which is produced at the new ZF location in Gray Court, South Carolina, USA, will be launched in volume production in a Land Rover towards the end of 2013. Next item on the agenda is the trade show premiere at the Geneva Motor Show from March 7-17, 2013, where Land Rover will already present the new transmission to the public.
Customized advantages
Compared to the previously standard 6-speed automatic transmissions for front-transverse installations, ZF's 9HP considerably cuts fuel consumption and consequently also CO2 emissions. The technical basis for the great efficiency of the 9HP is the very high transmission spread – and nevertheless, it is possible to have particularly small gear steps thanks to the nine gear stages. This not only enhances ride comfort but also makes sure that the engine always runs in the most economical speed range.
Revolutionary transmission concept
ZF realized the high number of speeds of the 9HP with the help of four individual gearsets and six shifting elements. It was a special challenge to place all these components in the transmission: After all, due to the design principle of passenger cars with front-transverse engines, the available transmission installation space is very limited. For this reason, the gearsets have not been allocated one behind the other on the 9HP's longitudinal axis but were intelligently nested in. This concept was supplemented by using hydraulically operated constant-mesh elements: They can be integrated without major impact on the transmission length and feature a high level of efficiency.
A torque converter is used as the standard starting element in the 9HP. Here, a multi-level torsion damping system minimizes hydraulic losses by quickly closing the torque converter already at low speeds. With its direct engine connection, it reduces fuel consumption and enhances comfort as well as driving dynamics. For an even more superior driving experience, ZF has designed all control components for shorter shift times and response times that are below the threshold of human perception.
Direct multiple gearshifts are also possible with the 9HP and give the automatic transmission its sporty character. Thus, the transmission control unit can be influenced by the OEM and the end customer: Shifting points and shifting dynamics are highly variable - from an emphasis on comfort and optimized fuel consumption through to extremely sporty.
Flexible construction kit
ZF has prepared the new 9-speed automatic transmission as a modular kit so that it can be used in as many vehicle applications as possible. With two model ranges, it covers a torque range between 200 and 480 Nm. In addition, it is start-stop capable as a standard without an additional oil pump – and it can be hybridized: On the basis of a parallel hybrid architecture, the torque converter is then replaced by an electric motor. Not least, ZF's 9HP has an open software and interface structure and a powerful electronic control unit. This means that it will be possible to integrate it flexibly into the most different vehicle concepts.

My Comparisons and Ratings – Cleaning
This is part of my comparison chart for the menstrual cups I have tried.
See here for the chart and links to the other individual sections explained.
Inside (Cleaning)
This is looking at what markings are on the cups (and their potential to collect blood and make cleaning harder). None of the cups were "hard" to clean, but some were easier than others…. so points given to being easier than other cups.
Diva – has their name in fancy font and they have "made in canada", plus the size in raised numbers on the flat inside base, and measuring lines in mls and oz.
Femmecup – measuring lines.
Fleurcup - has nothing at all inside
Keeper – has "The keeper made in USA" in raised capitals all around the inside of the rim (I hate the typeface.. looks large chunky and less professional) and the size raised in the flat inside bottom. 2 rings around the inside. Not sure if they are measuring lines or not.
Lady Cup – has nothing at all inside
Lunette - has nothing at all inside
MeLuna – has nothing at all inside
Miacup – has their logo on the inside rim, nothing marked on the flat base inside the cup.
Mooncup UK – has their website in larger letters, their sizing in raised letters on the flat inside bottom and raised dots beside the size (not sure why). It also has the lines on the inside, marked mls on one side and plain lines on the opposite side.
MPower – has nothing at all inside
Yuuki – Has their name and the number "1" in slightly indented letters on the inside, with raised measuring lines marking 5mls and 10mls.
I found none of the measuring lines collected any blood really… not as much as I'd thought it would. Though it did make it a fraction harder to clean inside (one lazy wipe cleans the smooth inside cups and I had to wipe a bit more carefully to clean the others) – but rinsing with water seemed to clean them with the same amount of ease.
I noticed once that there was dried blood in the writing that hadn't washed off properly when I'd rinsed it after use (oops). So the potential for blood catchment in the writing/markings is there, so having no markings is better than having the chance to be harder to clean IMHO… so score one point for smooth(er) inside that is easier to clean, half a point to Yuuki & Femmecup because the markings are only very slight.
Outside (Cleaning)
This is looking at what markings, ridges and writing is on the outside of cups (and their potential to collect blood and make cleaning harder). I found the more pronounced ridge (where the cup has the "stepped" sides near the top rim) to be slightly more likely to catch blood than the smoother sides.
Diva – Pronounced ridge around the top, slightly harder to clean there. No markings except lines around base for grip.
Femmecup – Pronounced ridge around the top, no markings.
Fleurcup -very raised ridges around bottom of the base for grip. No markings or ridge
Keeper - Pronounced ridge around the top, slightly harder to clean there. No markings.
Lady Cup – No ridge around the top, no writing or markings. Slightly raised bumps around base for grip
Lunette – Slight ridge around the top, shallow indented writing and raised lines for measuring (wasn't hard to clean).
MeLuna – No ridge around the top, no writing or markings.
Miacup – Pronounced ridge around the top, no markings.
Mooncup UK – Pronounced ridge around the top, slightly harder to clean there.
MPower -Slight ridge at top, however the silicone on the raised grip ridges is present, which can catch blood.
Yuuki – No ridge around the top, no writing.
Even though the Lunette has the lines and writing on the outside, they are so minimal that they haven't collected blood for me. So score 0.5 for Lunette (since it's still easy to clean) and 1 point to the other cups who have smoother outsides that are slightly easier to clean. Mpower would have received a point for having a smooth outside, but the silicone in the grip ridges along the bottom of the cup is not smooth, so can collect blood.
Cleaning the holes
Diva – Very small holes, angled down. Took a lot of effort to clean.
Femmecup – Holes cleaned ok
Fleurcup - Holes cleaned easily
Keeper - Holes hard to see given the colour of the cup, so it's uncertain if they clean well or not.
Lady Cup – Large holes, easy to clean
Lunette – Large holes, easy to clean
MeLuna – Holes cleaned easily
Miacup – Holes cleaned easily, large enough to see into despite opaque cup
Mooncup UK – Holes cleaned easily
MPower -Very large holes, easy to clean
Yuuki – Very small holes – angled up, cleaned easily
The holes of the Diva really bugged me, and I only tried it twice. They would not rinse clean for me, I had to get a pin and poke them clean. I imagine I would take to it with a heated metal skewer to enlarge them if I bought one and had to use a pin each time…. I tried putting my hand over the cup and squirting water out through them (my usual method) , and it doesn't work to clear them (where it does for the other cups)….The Yukki holes are not much bigger and also angled, but those cleaned fine. I don't know if it's because of the direction they angle in.
With the Keeper's brown colour, you can't see if the holes are dirty though, which is a big turn off for me – given the amount of gunk I've seen in the silicone cups holes, if you don't see it, you might not clean it well enough to remove it…. and not all of us disinfect or boil the cups between uses….Lady Cup and Mpower's holes were the easiest to clean, being HUGE, they didn't even need the palm squeeze trick to clean them, they came clean with a rinse under the tap. Miacup's holes while also opaque like Keeper, are larger so I can see through them, so I'm happy with them.
So I'll give a 1/2 point each to the cups with easy enough to clean holes, 1 point to easier to clean cups, and minus 0.5 to Diva for its incredibly difficult holes to clean and to Keeper for the fact that while they seem to come clean ok, you can't see clearly if the holes need cleaning or not….

Care & Cleaning
None should come into contact with oil/petroleum (including lubricants – use waterbased only), I believe the Keeper can't be boiled as it is rubber but the others can. Vinegar should not be used on the keeper as it can effect the rubber (although http://www.mykeepercup.com/usage.html website says it can). If you use soap or steralising solutions, make sure you rinse them well so none of that is going into your vagina!
Some women choose to clean with a fragrance free natural soap only, some prefer to boil for 10 minutes (make sure the pan has plenty of water and doesn't boil dry or it will damage the cup), some soak in a solution of hydrogen peroxide. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the cup.

A menstrual cup is form of reusable menstrual protection. It is inserted into the vagina to collect menstrual fluids. Once in place it forms a seal, preventing blood flowing out of the vagina by collecting it in its "cup" shaped reservoir. Unlike a tampon which absorbs the blood along with the vagina's natural secretions, a menstrual cup simply holds the fluids until you remove it – so they do not dry out the vagina and do not hold the TSS risk that tampons do.
They hold around 20-30ml, which is for most women will cope with a full day without emptying, and at most perhaps you would need to empty it a few times a day for a very heavy flow. A menstrual cup will last (with proper care) for around 10 years, perhaps longer, so while the initial outlay is high, it pays for itself with savings pretty quick.

There was a lot of handwringing out West about the Edmonton Oilers loss to the Calgary Flames on Saturday night. It was the final nail in the coffin of the 2013 Edmonton Oilers, who were knocked six points back of a playoff spot with just seven games to play and four teams to jump. It's not insurmountable, but every star in the galaxy will have to perfectly align for the Oilers to hop back into the race.
It's a shame. A career season from Taylor Hall wasted. A career season from Sam Gagner wasted. A breakout campaign for Devan Dubnyk wasted. Jordan Eberle and Hall have seven games left each on their entry-level deals, and they'll have no playoff games to show for it. Next year will be the last one for Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and unless there's a dramatic shift in the management it's likely he'll get through his first three seasons without a playoff game.
Sunday, it was crazy. Not only did Edmonton Sun columnist Terry Jones call for the head of general manager Steve Tambellini, but so did the wise sage of the Oilogosphere Lowetide. Tambellini has lost Cronkite.
Oh, on Sunday, the Nashville Predators also lost 3-0 to the Detroit Red Wings. With six games to go, they have to make up seven points and five teams, one of them being the Edmonton Oilers. Their demise isn't as noticeable as the Oilers'. Despite being in the same spot in the standings, there are no news columns running Monday morning calling for the heads of longtime faces of the franchise David Poile and Barry Trotz, running with the team since the beginning.
Just to show just how well the Predators have done over the last six seasons or so, here are the bottom of the standings after Sunday:
I cut it off at teams with a reasonable shot of reaching the Bottom Five. Can we even call the Bottom Five "lottery teams" anymore with the new draft rules allowing all 14 non-playoff teams a shot at No. 1? That said there's an 80 per cent shot that a team in the Bottom Five will get the No. 1 pick, so we'll have that as our definition.
Not bringing this up because I'm cackling with glee about the Predators misfortunes. Au contraire. I think what the Predators did during the last six years is amazing and it doesn't seem like anybody has really noticed it. The Preds have built up a good local following, have an impressively loud building and noticeable arena traditions audible over a generic TV broadcast. It's on my list of NHL arenas to visit.
I'm bringing this up because when, do you think, was the last time the Predators even had a Top Five pick at the NHL draft? In 1998, the Predators as an expansion franchise were given the 3rd overall pick (later traded around and they wound up with No. 2 and took David Legwand) and since then the Preds have drafted 6th, 12th, 6th, 7th, 15th, 18th, 56th, 23rd, 7th, 11th, 18th, 38th and 37th. There's obviously been some wheeling and dealing there, but this year could mark the first time in 15 seasons that the Predators draft in the Top Five. Not many teams can claim that.
Playoff appearances in the seven seasons since Gary Bettman Lockout II, a good starting point:
|Appearances since 2005
|Detroit Red Wings
|San Jose Sharks
|New Jersey Devils
|Nashville Predators
|New York Rangers
|Philadelphia Flyers
|Pittsburgh Penguins
Their payroll in that span hasn't been all that much. According to Capgeek, last season they made the playoffs with the 24th highest payroll in the game. They made the second round of the playoffs (other second round teams? 1st, 2nd, 7th, 10th, 12th, 22nd, 23rd). In the 2010-2011 season they made the playoffs and the second round with the 21st highest payroll. The other 2nd round teams that season? 2nd, 6th, 7th, 8th, 10th, 11th, 23rd.
Somewhere between a budget that falls between the salary cap midpoint and the salary floor lay a real good hockey team that was built very efficiently. I've learned from columns in the past where I speculated that the Predators built on some sort of mythical foundation that included looking at puck-possession metrics and the like.
The Predators did a lot of good things. They took risks on discarded stems like J.P. Dumont and Sergei Kostitsyn, squeezing whatever hockey juice was left in them. They found useful players in the later rounds of the draft: Martin Erat, Jordin Tootoo, Patric Hornqvist. They made some free agency acquisitions that turned into gold: Joel Ward and Jerred Smithson (I ripped Smithson a few weeks ago but in Nashville he was a very useful centreman).
Can't overlook the goaltending they got. Tomas Vokoun turned into Pekka Rinne and it seemed like for years the Preds would always have a goalie who could get hot. They shuffled around defencemen and always seemed to have one guy to replace the next. Dan Hamhuis, Kimmo Timonen and Marek Zidlicky turned into Shea Weber, Ryan Suter and Kevin Klein.
That's the reason, though, why you can forgive a season or two of losing. The writing was on the wall for the Predators last year. I wrote about their real iffy possession numbers, and no longer being able to shoot pucks in the net at an absurd rate has crushed the team this season.
Roman Josi, while he's playing 23:27 a night, isn't Ryan Suter. Only three players had 20 points so far this season with the Preds after 42 team games. All of them are on the wrong side of 27 and the third has been traded to Washington. That was Erat, who was traded for Filip Forsberg who made his NHL debut on Sunday. Hopefully him and whoever the Predators get in the summer can help ease the scoring burden placed on Patric Hornqvist, Gabriel Bourque and Colin Wilson.
But hey. Sometimes the stars just don't align. That's more the case for the Predators this year than it is for most of the teams competing against them for a good draft pick. The fun thing about the short season is that it throws out of whack the final standings so teams that don't belong in the bottom third of the standings will get a crack at top prospect this season. Carolina and Nashville are two teams that fit the bill. I accepted midway through the season than you can't even use PDO to predict which teams will crash and burn this season because the season is just too damn short for the bounces to even out.
Oh well.

On behalf of Douglas F. Behm, Attorney at Law posted in Business & Commercial Law on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
One of the most notable slogans for Heinz ketchup may be, "Good things come to those who wait." And many of our Arizona readers may be able to recall how the song "Anticipation" was once used in ads to highlight the value of that tasty wait.
Federal regulators say they suspect there are some in the business world who lacked critical patience in connection with the recent announced acquisition of the H.J. Heinz Company. Officials of the Securities and Exchange Commission say they've launched a probe into possible insider trading in connection with the purchase by Berkshire Hathaway and Brazil's 3G.
Authorities say they believe a brokerage in Switzerland was used to place trade orders on Wednesday of last week — the day before the acquisition deal was announced. Shares rose 20 percent when the announcement was made and officials say whoever was behind the particular trades in question made more than a $1.5 million. Authorities say the trades focused on call options — a vehicle that lets traders pledge to buy stock in a company at a set price on the speculation that the stock's value will increase beyond that set price for some reason.
A statement from the SEC says it became suspicious because the account that was used hadn't touched Heinz securities for nearly half a year before Wednesday's activity. A spokesman says someone must have known something to trigger the trading.
The SEC says there is no allegation of wrongdoing by Berkshire or 3G and that the probe won't derail the acquisition. The suspect account has been frozen by court order. Representatives of the Zurich bank that hosts the account say they are cooperating with investigators.
Securities fraud charges can carry severe penalties if convictions are obtained. Anyone facing such charges should not face them without the benefit of experienced legal counsel.

How to Treat Skin Burns
First-Degree Burns
First-degree burns are the least serious, as only the outer layer of skin is burned. If you have a first-degree skin burn, your skin will be red and may show a bit of swelling or feel painful.
This burn should be treated as follows:
Cool the skin by running cold water on the burn until the pain subsides. If you're nowhere near running water, use a cold pack, frozen vegetables, or even a cold soda can to cool the area. By cooling the burn, you reduce the swelling by luring the heat away from the skin. Do not use ice directly on a first-degree burn.
Bandaging is important to treat the burn as it keeps air off the burn, which can cause pain, and also protects burned skin from infection and irritation. Cover the burn with a sterile bandage that fits loosely. Gauze is ideal; fluffy cotton should be avoided as it can irritate burned skin. Do not put pressure on the burned skin.

Video: NY Police Officer Larry Deprimo Buys Homeless Man Pair of Shoes
A New York police officer named Larry Deprimo's act of kindness to a homeless man has gone viral after an Arizona tourist quietly captured the heartwarming photo of the officer kneeling down to give a homeless man warm boots.
The woman shared the grainy cellphone photo with the NYPD, who posted the touching photo on their Facebook page and identified the officer.
Officer Lawrence "Larry" Deprimo, who is normally assigned to the Sixth Precinct in the West Village, was pretty shocked to learn of the photo's existence.
But, he remembers that day clearly, stating, "It was freezing out and you could see the blisters on the man's feet. I had two pairs of socks and I was still cold."
He began chatting with the homeless man and found out the man wore a size 12 in shoes. Officer DePrimo went into a Skechers shoe store at about 9:30 p.m to find the man some warm boots.
Jose Cano, the manager at the store that evening recalls, "We were just kind of shocked. Most of us are New Yorkers and we just kind of pass by that kind of thing. Especially in this neighborhood."
Cano volunteered to give the officer his employee discount to bring down the regular $100 price of the all-weather boots to a little more than $75.
DePrimo said, "He was the most polite gentleman I had met".
The officer presented the winter boots and thermal socks as he knelt down and put the boots on the man.
"He smiled from ear to ear," DePrimo said. "It was like you gave him a million dollars."
The officer asked the man if he wanted a cup of coffee, but he graciously declined and went on his way.
"I didn't think anything of it," DePrimo said of his generosity.
But later that night, he got a text message from a friend. The photo had gone viral.
"I was absolutely shocked," he said.
The officer has kept the receipt in his vest since then "to remind me that sometimes people have it worse."

US Justice Department accuses Iran of terror plot on American soil
Win McNamee/Getty Images
WASHINGTON, DC - OCTOBER 11: U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder (R), Preet Bharara, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York (C), and FBI Director Robert Mueller (L) announce a plot was foiled involving men allegedly linked to the Iranian government to kill the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. and to bomb the embassies of Saudi Arabia and Israel in Washington.
Today the Justice Department accused two officials of the Iranian government of being involved in a plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the United States and to bomb the embassy of Saudi Arabia.
According to court documents filed in the Southern District of New York, the two men accused were Manssor Arbabsiar, a 56-year-old U.S. citizen who also holds an Iranian passport, and Gholam Shakuri, whom authorities said was a Quds Force member. Mr. Shakuri remains at large but Mr. Arbabsiar, a naturalized U.S. citizen, was arrested on September 29. Attorney General Eric Holder said the U.S. would hold Iran accountable but when Holder was asked whether the plot was sanctioned by Iranian government, he said the DOJ was not making that accusation. According to FBI Director Robert Mueller, many lives could have been lost in the plot to kill the ambassador with bombs in the U.S. The Justice Department offered details of a convoluted international plot involving Mexican drug cartels, hired murderers and money transfers from unknown locations.
How should the Obama administration respond be the alleged plot?
