Flamenco Guitarist Michael Hauser
To Headline Summer Program July 19
EAU CLAIRE - Michael Hauser, "one of America's few masters of the emotional flamenco guitar" (Mpls./St. Paul Magazine), will open UW-Eau Claire's Summer Session Programs for the week of July 19. His free outdoor show will begin at 7 p.m. Monday on the Central Campus Mall. Refreshments will be sold.
One of only a handful of flamenco guitar masters residing in the U.S. today, Hauser has studied with Spain's greatest flamenco guitarists, and also studied classical guitar with Andres Segovia's protégé Jesus Silva. He is currently on the music faculty at Macalaster College in St. Paul, where he is initiating a program in flamenco studies. His concerts combine flamenco guitar solos inspired by the great flamenco legends with his own original compositions and classical works by composers such as J.S. Bach, Isaac Albeniz and Enrique Granados.
"The Big Lebowski" (1998) will continue the Summer Cinema festival of films by Joel and Ethan Coen Tuesday and Thursday at noon and 7 p.m. in Davies Theatre.
Thugs break into the apartment of Jeff Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) in the errant belief that they are accosting another Jeff Lebowski, the Big Lebowski, an eccentric philanthropist. Instead, they threaten and soil the carpet of the lesser Lebowski, a genial deadbeat known as "The Dude." Seeking restitution, The Dude and his bowling buddies (John Goodman, Steve Buscemi) are swept up in a kidnap caper involving German nihilists, a porn king (Ben Gazarra) and an avant-garde painter (Julianne Moore).
"It's a pinball arcade of a flick," wrote the Toronto Globe and Mail. "The Coens invent a bunch of wonderfully flaky characters, stick them into a Plexiglas narrative, and let them bounce off each other."
Rated R, the 117-minute color film will screen via DVD projection. Admission is free.
Summer Session Programs continue through Aug. 5. A complete schedule is available from the Activities and Programs office, Davies Center 133, (715) 836-4833, and on the Web.

It was sweet, with clear floral tones from the honey.
Playing with some led's in the fermentation and aging room, three one gallon batches at various stages. L to R, blueberry/lavender test recipe, yerba chai blend metheglin and a Jaom about ready for bottling (I like to go into a secondary for a couple days first just incase some more stuff likes to settle out)
All my meads were only started this month. Looking forward to a good winter!!
Big carboys from left to right:
-Tupelo Honey Mead. Simple traditional mead.. around 12lbs of honey, Lalvin D47
-My very first Braggot... sort of a medium wheat grain bill, some tettnanger hops, and 10lbs of local wildflower honey
-Not mead. Nice beer that should be similar to a Kilt Lifter.
1 gallon jugs from left to right:
-Raspberry Vanilla Melomel.
-Caramel Apple Cyser. Made this as a birthday present for my wife.
-Spiced Pumpkin Cyser. Hoping it'll be drinkable by Thanksgiving.
-I do not have a drinking problem. Unless I'm out of beer...
-This beer isn't infected. It's delicious.

There's some pretty looking meads in this here thread...
TeufelHundenM198: What recipe did you use for for your Caramel Apple Cyser?
Ancho Chili Capsicumel. Sweet mead with awesome mouthfeel, peppery nose, and a nice spicy kick to finish it off.
Spiced plum
So this is everything I've got right now that isn't out in the deep storage. In order:
Kiwi (with Strawberry!) Wine that's currently bulk aging and settling down.
B+B+B Mead- Blueberry, Blackberry and Banana. That's one of the topping bottles as I just transferred it off the fruit. If it fully clears, should be fun.
Raspberry Mead- Bottled around 9 months ago. Wonderful nose on it, though not quite as much taste of raspberry as I was expecting.
My first mead - a minor variation of Joe's Ancient Orange Mead (no cinnamon or cloves). It's a little over two months old at this point and has just be racked into its secondard home. Not too terribly clear but it's been fun for a first shot!

Louisville's finest stepped out in an array of fashionable gowns and tuxedos on March 1 to celebrate the 41st Annual Speed Art Museum Ball.
For the first time, the Speed Ball honored an inspirational leader whose commitment and service to the arts is unsurpassed, the Reverand Alfred Shands III. Guests in attendance viewed The Shands Collection directed by Rhoden Streeter. The film featured Shands discussing the love for art both he and his late wife shared, highlights from his collection, and why he is a collector.
Guests dined on an elegant spread by Corbett's amidst hand-blown glass vessels from Flame Run and decorative lamps highlighting renderings of the future Speed. Dinner guests were also treated to a view of Seven Blossoms by Paul Klee with the newly discovered watercolor painting on the other side of the original 1926 piece.
With help from GalaxyRed, the Ball transformed from dinner to dance party as Friends of the Speed arrived at 9:00 pm.The Ball's success owes a special thanks to Presenting Sponsor, Thorntons Inc., and Local Speed Sponsors, Kindred Healthcare, Inc. and Yum!

AP National Security Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -- World leaders, nervously eyeing a growing threat from Islamic State militants, will seek to build a united front this week against the violent extremist group and keep it from creeping beyond its borders.
Yet international plans to counter the Islamic State group -- with combined military might, diplomatic pressure on abetting partners and economic penalties -- pale in comparison to the extremists' ruthlessness and command of the swath of land it controls across parts of northern Syria and Iraq. For the second time in as many weeks, Islamic State militants released a video showing the beheading of an American journalist, and governments from Britain to Saudi Arabia to Australia warned of the potential of their citizens joining the fight -- and then bringing the violence back home.
"Our objective is clear, and that is to degrade and destroy ISIL so that it's no longer a threat," President Barack Obama said Wednesday during a visit to Estonia, using an alternate acronym for the Islamic State. He later headed to Wales for an annual meeting of leaders of the NATO military alliance.
Separately, during an appearance in Maine, Vice President Joe Biden declared that the U.S. will pursue the militants to "the gates of hell."
In Wales, British Prime Minister David Cameron said he was considering joining a nearly monthlong U.S. airstrike campaign in Iraq against the Islamic State group, adding to military aid that London has already approved.
"We'll always ask ourselves what is in our national interest," Cameron said, according to Britain's Guardian newspaper. "Not ruling things out, but going forward in a deliberate, sensible, resolute way."
And in the Mideast, the United Arab Emirates called for a coordinated international effort to tackle the "global scourge" of terrorism, raising particular concern about the threat posed by Islamic State fighters.
The heightened urgency reflected fears that the Islamic State was growing stronger in its quest to create a caliphate territory in the Mideast and systematically kill any who resist. The group is considered even more merciless toward its enemies than the al-Qaida terror network, and intelligence officials across the world warn that it may soon seek to seed its violence beyond its declared borders.
So far, the Islamic State has beheaded two American journalists it held captive for what the militants called payback for more than 120 U.S. airstrikes on its assets in northern Iraq since Aug. 8. Journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff were two of what the State Department has described as "a few" Americans still being held hostage by the group. The Islamic State also had threatened to kill a British man it is holding hostage.
In a statement Wednesday, a family spokesman said Sotloff dedicated his life to portraying the suffering of people in war zones, but was "no hero."
Family spokesman Barak Barfi told reporters gathered outside the family's suburban Miami home that Sotloff "tried to find good concealed in a world of darkness," and to give voice to the weak and suffering in the Arab world. Barfi said Sotloff was "no war junkie," but was drawn to the stories of the turbulent Middle East, and his family has pledged to "not allow our enemies to hold us hostage with the sole weapon they possess -- fear."
Sotloff, a 31-year-old who freelanced for Time and Foreign Policy magazines before he was captured in Syria a year ago, was also an Israeli citizen. But his Jewish faith and Israeli citizenship were not widely known before his death -- in part because Israel's military censor apparently kept a lid on the story for his safety -- and his killers are not believed to have known about his background.
In Washington, Obama administration officials maintained that the U.S. will not launch a ground war against the Islamic State militants. But they stopped short of ruling out airstrikes against the group in its safe haven in Syria, as the U.S. has resisted for years.
Obama has "been clear that we're not going to be limited by geography," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said. She described a range of actions being considered against the Islamic State, and noted that decisions and discussions were ongoing.
Over the past day, Secretary of State John Kerry and other administration officials have reached out to leaders from Australia, the UAE, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Italy and Israel to discuss how to combat the Islamic State. Psaki said the discussions focused on what each country might contribute -- including weapons, humanitarian aid and other resources -- and noted that some nations already have.

Patrick Floyd "Pat" Garrett (June 5, 1850 – February 29, 1908) was an American Old West lawman, bartender, and customs agent who became famous for killing Billy the Kid.[2] He was also the sheriff of Lincoln County, New Mexico as well as Doña Ana County, New Mexico.
Patrick Floyd Garrett was born in Cusseta, Alabama, and grew up on a prosperous Louisiana plantation near Haynesville in northern Claiborne Parish, just below the Arkansas state line. He left home in 1869 and found work as a cowboy in Dallas County, Texas. In 1875, he left to hunt buffalo. In 1878, Garrett shot and killed a fellow hunter who charged at Garrett with a hatchet following a disagreement over buffalo hides. As he lay dying, the hunter brought Garrett to tears upon asking him to forgive him.
Garrett moved to New Mexico and briefly found work as a cowpuncher (cowboy) before quitting to open his own saloon. A tall man, he was referred to by locals as "Juan Largo" or "Long John". In 1879, Garrett married Juanita Gutierrez, who died within a year. In 1880, he married Gutierrez's sister, Apolinaria. The couple had nine children.
On November 7, 1880, the sheriff of Lincoln County, New Mexico, republican George Kimbell, resigned with two months left in his term. As Kimbell's successor, the county appointed Garrett, a democrat and gunman of some reputation who had promised to restore law and order. Garrett was charged with tracking down and arresting an alleged friend from his saloon keeping days, Henry McCarty, a jail escapee who often went by the aliases Henry Antrim and William Harrison Bonney, but who is better known as "Billy the Kid". Garrett and Bonney were often seen gambling together in saloons, and earned the nicknames "Big Casino" and "Little Casino." [3]
McCarty was an alleged murderer who had participated in the Lincoln County War. He was said to have killed 21 men, one for every year of his life, but the actual total was probably closer to nine. New Mexico Governor Lew Wallace had personally put a US$500 reward on McCarty's capture.
On December 19, 1880, Garrett killed Tom O'Folliard, a member of McCarty's gang, in a shootout on the outskirts of Fort Sumner. On December 23, the sheriff's posse killed Charlie Bowdre, and captured the Kid and his companions at Stinking Springs (near present-day Taiban, New Mexico). Garrett transported the captives to Mesilla, New Mexico, for trial. Though he was convicted, the Kid managed to escape from the Lincoln County jail on April 28, 1881, after killing his guards, J. W. Bell and Bob Olinger.
On July 14, 1881, Garrett visited Fort Sumner to question a friend of the Kid's about the whereabouts of the outlaw. He learned the Kid was staying with a mutual friend, Pete Maxwell (son of land baron Lucien Maxwell). Around midnight, Garrett went to Maxwell's house. The Kid was asleep in another part of the house, but woke up in the middle of the night and entered Maxwell's bedroom, where Garrett was standing in the shadows. The Kid did not recognize the man standing in the dark. "¿Quién es? (Who is it?), ¿Quién es?," the Kid asked repeatedly. Garrett replied by shooting at him twice.[4] The first shot hit the Kid in the chest just above the heart, although the second one missed and struck the mantle behind him; the Kid fell to the floor and gasped for a minute before dying. (Some historians have questioned Garrett's account of the shooting, alleging the incident happened differently. They believe Garrett went into Paulita Maxwell's room and tied her up. The Kid walked into her room, and Garrett ambushed him with a single blast from his Sharps rifle.)
There has been much dispute over the details of the Kid's death that night. The way Garrett allegedly killed McCarty without warning eventually sullied the lawman's reputation. Garrett claimed Billy the Kid had entered the room armed with a pistol, but no gun was found on his body. Other accounts claim he entered carrying a kitchen knife, but no hard evidence supported this. Garrett's reputation was also hurt by popular stories that he and Billy had once been friends, and that the shooting was a kind of betrayal, but historians have found no evidence of such a friendship. Legends persist that Billy the Kid was not killed that night, and that Garrett staged it all so the Kid could escape the law. Although Garrett was trying to help the community, most people in the area saw him as a villain for killing a favorite son.[6] [7]
Still, at the time, the shooting solidified Garrett's fame as a lawman and gunman, and led to numerous appointments to law enforcement positions, as well as requests that he pursue outlaws in other parts of New Mexico.
His law enforcement career never achieved any great success following the Lincoln County War, and he mostly used that era in his life as his stepping-stone to higher positions. After finishing out his term as sheriff, Garrett became a rancher and released a book in 1882 titled The Authentic Life of Billy, the Kid. His book, a first-hand account about his experiences with McCarty, which helped raise the Kid to the level of historical figure, was in large part ghostwritten by his friend Ash Upson. Garrett lost the next election for Lincoln County sheriff and was never paid the $500 reward for McCarty's capture, since he had killed him. In 1882, he ran for the position of Grant County, New Mexico sheriff, but was defeated by Sheriff Harvey Whitehill. In 1884, he lost an election for the New Mexico State Senate. Later that year, he left New Mexico and helped found and captain a company of Texas Rangers.
He returned to New Mexico briefly in 1885. In October 1889, Garrett ran for Chaves County, New Mexico, sheriff but lost. By this time, his rough disposition was beginning to wear thin with much of the populace, and rumors of his less than admirable killing of Billy the Kid were beginning to affect his popularity. Garrett left New Mexico in 1891 for Uvalde, Texas. He returned to New Mexico in 1896 to investigate the disappearance of Albert Jennings Fountain and Fountain's young son, Henry.
In January 1896, Colonel Fountain served as a special prosecutor against men charged with cattle raiding in Lincoln, New Mexico. With his work finished, Fountain left Lincoln with his eight-year-old son, Henry. The two did not complete their trip home; on the third day, they disappeared near White Sands.
Fountain's disappearance caused outrage throughout the territory. Further complicating matters, the main suspects in the disappearance were deputy sheriffs William McNew, James Gilliland, and Oliver M. Lee. New Mexico's governor saw outside help was needed, and he called in Pat Garrett. One problem Garrett encountered was that Lee, McNew, and Gilliland were very close with powerful former judge, lawyer, and politician Albert B. Fall.
Garrett, who was appointed Doña Ana County sheriff on August 10, 1896, and elected to the post on January 4, 1897, believed he would never get a fair hearing regarding his evidence while Fall was in control of the courts. Therefore, Garrett waited two full years before presenting his evidence before the court and securing indictments against the suspected men. McNew was quickly arrested, and Lee and Gilliland went into hiding.
Garrett's posse caught up with Lee and Gilliland on July 12, 1898. One of Garrett's deputies, Kurt Kearney, was killed in the gun battle that followed. Garrett and his posse then retreated, and Gilliland and Lee escaped. They later surrendered, although not to Garrett. Both stood trial and were acquitted. The location of the Fountain bodies remains a mystery.[8]
On December 20, 1901, Theodore Roosevelt, who became a personal friend of Garrett, appointed him customs collector in El Paso, Texas. Garrett served for five years. He was not reappointed, however, possibly because he had embarrassed Roosevelt by showing up at a San Antonio Rough Riders reunion with a notorious gambler friend, Tom Powers. Garrett had Powers pose in a group photograph with Roosevelt, resulting in bad publicity for the president.[9]
Garrett had been warned about his close association with Powers by friends. Years earlier, Powers had been run out of his home state of Wisconsin for beating his father into a coma. Garrett did not listen, and when his reappointment was denied, he traveled to Washington, D.C., to speak personally with Roosevelt. He had the bad judgment of taking Powers with him. In that meeting, Roosevelt told Garrett plainly that there would be no reappointment.
Garrett retired to his ranch in New Mexico but was suffering financial difficulties. He owed a large amount in taxes and was found liable for an unpaid loan he had cosigned for a friend. Garrett borrowed heavily to make these payments and started drinking and gambling excessively. He crossed paths regularly with Oliver M. Lee and Lee's corrupt attorney, Albert Fall, always finding himself on the opposite end of their illegal land deals and intimidation of local ranchers and citizens.
Garrett's main creditor, rancher W. W. Cox, who was brother-in-law to Oliver M. Lee, worked out a deal to repay the debt by using Garrett's Quarter Horse ranch on the slopes of the San Andres Mountains as grazing land for one of his partners. There is no deal on record in the courthouse, and no deed from Garrett to Cox. Cox took over the ranch and razed the home. Garrett's son, Pat, Jr., kept the upper ranch with the water until his death. Garrett agreed to the deal, not realizing Jesse Wayne Brazel would be grazing goats rather than cattle on the land. Garrett objected to the goats, feeling their presence lowered the value of his land in the eyes of buyers or other renters. By this time, questions surrounding the manner in which he killed Billy the Kid and Garrett's general demeanor had led to his becoming quite unpopular. He no longer had any local political support, his support from President Roosevelt had been withdrawn, and he had few friends with power.
Garrett and Carl Adamson, who was in the process of talks with Garrett to purchase land, rode together, heading from Las Cruces, New Mexico in Adamson's wagon. Brazel showed up on horseback along the way. Garrett and Brazel began to argue about the goats grazing on Garrett's land. Garrett is alleged to have leaned forward to pick up a shotgun on the floorboard. Brazel shot him once in the stomach, and then once more in the head as Garrett fell from the wagon. Brazel and Adamson left the body by the side of the road and returned to Las Cruces, alerting Sheriff Felipe Lucero of the killing.
There has occasionally been disagreement about the identity of Pat Garrett's killer. Today, most historians believe Jesse Wayne Brazel, who confessed to the shooting and was tried for first degree murder, did in fact commit the crime, and not in self-defense. Cox paid his bond and retained Fall as his defense attorney. Brazel did claim self defense saying that Garrett was armed with a shotgun and was threatening him. Adamson backed up Brazel's story. The jury took less than a half-hour to return a not-guilty verdict. Cox hosted a barbecue in celebration of the verdict.
Another alleged suspect in Garrett's death was the outlaw Jim Miller, a known killer for hire and cousin of Adamson. Miller was alleged to have been hired by enemies of Garrett, but this is believed to be only a rumor because Adamson was kin to him, and Miller is believed to have been in Oklahoma at the time. Oliver Lee was also alleged to have taken part in a conspiracy to kill Garrett, made up of businessmen and outlaws who disliked the former lawman. However, despite his previous clashes with Garrett, there is no evidence to support the claim.
To date, the common belief is the death was an ambush. Garrett was known to have carried a double-barreled shotgun when he traveled, and he had a fiery temper, but the gun was found disassembled and in non-working condition next to Garrett's body as if thrown there after the fact. Others believe that Garrett may have acted violently with Brazel, but there is no evidence to support this.[10]
Garrett's body was too tall for any finished coffins available, so a special one had to be shipped in from El Paso. His funeral service was held March 5, 1908, and he was laid to rest next to his daughter, Ida, who had preceded him in death eight years earlier.
The site of Garrett's death is now commemorated by a historical marker, which can be visited south of U.S. Route 70, between Las Cruces and the San Augustin Pass. The highway marker is not at the actual spot where Garrett was shot. The location of the shooting was marked by Pat's son Jarvis Garrett in 1938-1940 with a monument of his construction. The monument consists of concrete laid around a stone with a cross carved in it. The cross is believed to be the work of Pat's mother. Scratched in the concrete is "P. Garrett" and the date of his killing.
The location of this marker has been a fairly closely kept secret, but is now being made public because the city of Las Cruces is annexing the land where the marker is located. An organization, Friends of Pat Garrett. has been formed to ensure that the city preserves the site and marker.
Garrett's grave and the many graves of his descendants can be found in Las Cruces at the Masonic Cemetery.
Garrett has been a recurring character in movies and television shows, and has been portrayed on screen by:

Vincent Hurley, 42, was found dead in his home on Feb. 3.
Greenwood County deputies say his son, Zanquirous Hurley, and Cavin Harrison are charged with murder and strong armed robbery.
Greenwood County Coroner Sonny Cox says an autopsy found that Hurley died of blunt force trauma to the head and body.
Relatives told News 4 Hurley had a stroke several years ago and had been disabled since then.
Deputies said Hurley's son was arrested on Dec. 10 in Greenwood.
Harrison was arrested Dec. 9 in Atlanta with the help of the U.S. Marshals Service.

All the food at Hotel Noir follows three simple rules – it's got to be good quality, local where possible, and cooked just for you – not to sit on a buffet.
[tn3 origin="album" ids="40″ transitions="default" autoplay="1″ responsive="1″]
Wake up to breakfast
Whether you want fruit and yoghurt, cheese and pastries or a proper fry-up, the continental buffet has something for everyone whilst chef prepares your choice from our full English breakfast menu.
On busy days it may take a little longer to get served but we believe passionately that you'll be able to tell the difference from the quicker alternative of a buffet with rubbery eggs and half-cooked bacon of dubious origin.
Breakfast is served between 7.00am and 9.30am on weekdays and 8.00am to 10.30am at weekends for that extra luxury of a lie-in.
Dine with us – 5pm to 9pm
Our Winter menu features classics such as turkey with all the trimmings, slow-cooked belly pork, steak and ale pie or a fantastic local steak with hand-cut chips alongside classic East Coast fish and chips or butternut squash risotto. Whether you're looking to relax away from the bustle of the City or heading out to York's bars & pubs this menu gives great value but doesn't compromise on hand-made quality or portion sizes. For extra value, book our dinner package at just £15 for 3 courses,take a look at our drinks offers, or drop in for our Early Bird (5pm – 6.30pm, menu changes daily).
Our kids' menu is fantastic value at just £3.50 for a main course and we guarantee that the food is the same quality as the rest of the menu, with local sausage and mash, chicken breast goujons, cheesy pasta or a hand-made steak burger.
We welcome the local residents of Clifton and York, whether you fancy a bacon buttie or dinner without the dishes.
Chef will do his best to accommodate any special requirements but please give us at least 24 hours' notice for any food intolerances.
Drink Noir
Hotel Noir's informal bar is the perfect area for a few minutes of peace in the morning reading our selection of newspapers, sipping a coffee and enjoying the view over leafy Clifton Green or meeting friends for a glass of wine or a cool beer before dinner and because the bar is open until late you can savour that last nightcap on your way back from York's nightspots. We run regular offers on everything from bottles of wine to cocktails. See our current offers here.
Our winelist
We have spent a huge amount of time selecting our bespoke wine list by tasting each wine, sometimes time after time – a difficult task you can imagine. The result is we have an unusually sophisticated selection from around the world. A glass of our house wine will not disappoint but if you are looking for something to impress we guarantee you will find it in here.

|I've only seen this show a few times, but as an urban gardener with pretty limited space and not much money, I'm really liking it. Matt James is apparently a well-known urban gardener with a few books to his credit. (Have to check those out!) While the show suffers from the same 'limited-budget-limited-time' conceit as the rest of these make-over shows, James is very personable and knowledgeable, seems to really incorporate what the home/flat owners want, and does a great job of explaining the plants needs and what to look for at the garden center.
It's English, so the particular plants may not be appropriate, but he does a great job of turning neglected spaces into great living spaces. And when the English say 'small spaces' -- they really mean it! It's made me look at the little garden behind my apartment building differently; as a semi-public room, rather than a truncated backyard. The big drawback is that it only airs Saturday nights at 11!
Anyone else enjoying this show?

|I've seen it a few times. I'm usually not up that late!
I enjoy it for the same reasons you do – for the ideas rather than plant suggestions. I wish it was on at other times. Usually HGTV reruns stuff to death (which I don't mind)!
|Neat garden this weekend.
Very narrow, long space, the front half of which had been a parking space complete with swing arm garage door in the brick wall on the street. The owner was a bachelor with very little gardening experience, who was looking for a place to hang out with his friends after a night out with his friends.
They replaced the door with a roll-up tambor style door, so future owners could easily convert it back to a parking space if they wanted. The took out the brick divider in the middle, then placed simple decking and brick planter boxes on the diagonal. The bulk of the money they spent was on the door and on lighting -- uplighting for the plants and down lighting for the conversation areas.
They picked really nice, structural plants that were very low maintenance and cast dramatic shadows on the walls.
Wasn't necessarily to my taste, but it was perfect for the owner and turned out really well. You could see how much it added to the current owners enjoyment -- and the re-sale value.

|glad amy casually mentioned it was on HGTV, i'd have never thought of it.
maybe it should have its own thread but Rebecca's Garden is back, also on HGTV, at 6am central every day. used to be on regular tv saturday afternoon, then went to 5:30 am, then gone. saw her only a couple of times on the Rose Parade with paul james. she has a great show.
glad i accidentally found this forum. regards, dick
i love this show.i stay up on saturday night just to see it.is any one aware if it is on another hour.......eastern time?
the host is very knowladgable,
|Richard....I've been catching the show on Sunday mornings at 10:00am on HGTV. I love this show!!

|I hated this show. No creativity, just blah, hum-drum the two times I watched it. After seeing your posts, perhaps I'll give it another look.

|I really enjoy this show also-but sometimes I can't understand what he's saying! Interesting designs, and good use of space-I just wish it was on earlier.
|I'm just seeing it now Sunday night at 11pm and 3am. (HGTV) I think he's Great!
|My favorite aspect of this show is that Matt James loves gardening, and the producers of the show carry that over to the viewer. So many garden shows have hosts that aren't gardeners, or that don't inspire. I watch City Gardener and feel like I could spend a day gardening with this guy and both have fun and learn a lot.
My biggest fear is that HGTV will pull it because it's British... and we Americans can tend to be a little afraid of accents. If you love this show, don't forget to let HGTV know how you feel so they will keep it on the air.

A Biotech Short-Seller Responds to Critics
"Short sellers have thick skins and are certainly accustomed to a certain level of dislike from the rest of the market. No one expects CNBC to air a daily segment, 'Short-Selling Heroes of Wall Street.' But the trend towards criminalizing short sellers, whether it's in the court of public opinion or through actual regulation, can cause the very market volatility regulators hope to avoid. Attempts to discredit an opinion by attacking the legitimacy of the source are only persuasive on a superficial level.
"Opponents of short selling accuse short sellers of operating in the dark and without proper disclosure. I can tell you from experience that ad hominen attacks only have a stultifying effect on the willingness of short sellers to be more visible. Who wants to make their bearish view public if it means having to defend oneself against litigation, no matter how frivolous, or a government investigation, no matter how politically motivated? All that extra work costs time and money as well as the opportunity cost. In effect, some long investors are depriving themselves of the opportunity to hear an opposing view. In many cases this means that they will be selling their shares to a covering short seller at a price far below where they might have otherwise sold them were they privy to the short thesis. It is difficult to assess the effect of these attacks because one cannot know how many short sellers would be inclined to make their case publicly were the risk of litigation or government investigation nonexistent.
"Short sellers serve a vital function in our capital markets. They effect efficient price discovery despite our regulators' best efforts to impede price discovery when stocks move down. Does anyone seriously think we will see a downtick rule when stocks are up greater than 10%? Or a loosening of the rules governing stock borrow? For long-only investors who would like to see the voice of short sellers squelched, I say listen to Ayn Rand: "You can avoid reality but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality."
What if any changes to the practice of short selling would you make? Are short-selling rules too liberal or too restrictive? Please share your thoughts and ideas in the comments section below.

Do You Have an Innovative Idea?
If so, we invite you to submit your novel ideas, discoveries, or research tools to the Technology Transfer Office so it may take a closer look.
Invention Disclosure Form
The University of Toledo is committed to becoming a national leader in technology transfer and commercialization. In support of the University's mission to improve the human condition, it is important to make the benefits of discoveries conceived and developed at the University commercially available worldwide.
Inventing something is a highly creative and exploratory process, with an outcome that is uncertain or unknown. The first step in the inventive process is the initial idea. Inspiration can start the process, but no matter how complete the initial idea is, inventions typically have to be further developed.
The University of Toledo technology transfer group works with faculty, staff, and students to help identify the value of basic ideas and inventions and to bring these new technologies to the marketplace for the benefit of humankind.

NY1's Budd Mishkin continues his new series, "One On 1," with a profile of author and longtime newspaperman Pete Hamill.
Pete Hamill is known for the written word. And yet, among the many awards he's won is a Grammy.
"I brought it home - I was living in Brooklyn at the time with my two daughters, who were then about 6 and 8 - and they start playing catch with the Grammy, and one of them didn't catch it and it broke," he says. "And it survives to this day in broken form. I don't want to repair it. I love the idea that my kids put their marks on it."
Hamill won the Grammy in 1975 for the liner notes he wrote for his friend's album "Blood on the Tracks." The friend? Bob Dylan.
Peter Hamill started writing in the shadows of the bridges of Brooklyn, where he was born 68 years ago. He draws on the rich experiences of his childhood, his immigrant parents, his love of Mexico, and his years of newspaper reporting and editing at the Post, the Daily News, Newsday, and the Village Voice.
"I call it Îsensual writing.' You use all your senses," he says. "What did it smell like? What noise was going on, so that you have sound in the piece? What is said? I never wrote down to the audience. I was writing for two tabloids, but I never assumed anything about them being dumber than I am, or anything like that. If they were buying paper and reading, they were smart."
Hamill is also a best selling novelist and author. After 45 years of writing, he still starts with the original tools.
"I wrote originally in longhand on yellow pads, and then I type it up on the computer," he says. "I really believe the hands have memory, that it's very much like a jazz musician. You have to trust your hands. Sometimes trusting your hands longhand helps."
Hamill goes for a walk almost every day, a great time he says to be alone in his own brain, a time to think about sentences.
"I like sentences that don't need punctuation," he says. "I like a good, hard word at end of sentence; ÎI hit him with a rock,' not, ÎI threw a rock at him.'"
NY1 sat down with Pete Hamill before a forum at the New York Public Library honoring the late Irish-American writer James T. Farrell.
Hamill has many passions which affect his writing, including the team of his youth, the Dodgers, and their exit from Brooklyn.
"If you look at my work you see that there's a sense of loss in it," he says. "I don't mean Îlosing' as in winning, I mean, things exist in a city like this, and you think they'll be there forever and they're not."
Hamill's books have resided on best seller lists, and yet there are still moments of insecurity. He tells the story of bumping into another famous author at a bookstore.
"I see Phillip Roth go down and he starts moving books. And then he sees me, and I know him very slightly, and he comes down and says, ÎPlease don't tell anybody what you just saw.' And I said, ÎPhilip, look where I am,' and I was in front of the H's, so all writers are the same. I would only sell more if I could just get them up here."
Pete Hamill has reported from all over the world: Vietnam; Nicaragua; Northern Ireland; Lebanon. But so much of what he writes is influenced by his old neighborhood near Prospect Park in Brooklyn.
"The one thing I worked at a little harder maybe than a few other people is to retain that sense of wonder that I had about New York [that I had] when I was a kid," he says. "And that all came from my mother. She would show us Chinatown. She took us to Harlem to see what Harlem looked like. And she had this enormous, embracing personality. She'd say, ÎAren't these people beautiful? Look at this!'"
Hamill says his father was reticent and difficult to communicate with. He lost a leg at age 24 when he was injured playing soccer.
"He was cut off from all things that a lot of immigrants had - the chance to work on the docks, anything that involved physical stuff, he couldn't really do," Hamill says.
His mother supported Hamill's early aspirations to be a painter. His father did not.
"I always say that among Irish-Americans, there's a real problem that I called for years ÎThe Green Ceiling,' in which if you said, ÎI want to be something other than what my father was. I don't want to be a cop or a firemen, or work in factory or be a longshoreman, I want to be an artist.' Most of them would say, ÎWho do you think you are?,' like you were committing the sin of pride by having this kind of ambition."
Hamill's ambitions took him out of Brooklyn to the selective Catholic Regis High School on the Upper East Side, a scholarship school that requires a test for admission.
"Everything was smart," he says. "Wisecracks were smart. They would make wisecracks in Latin."
Hamill left Regis after two years.
"One of the things I missed, because I was a kid, was that they were also saying there are different ways to be excellent," he says. "What teachers were trying to do was to say almost everything in life has its rules. Basketball has its rules, and so does Latin, and once you master the rules then within that knowledge you can do a lot of variations on them. And I was missing that part of it and didn't understand it until years later when I began to think out what was going on there. But it was a great part of my life even though I hated it."
Hamill went to work at the Brooklyn naval yards, and then joined the Navy where he finished high school. Then it was off to Mexico and college on the G.I. Bill, another of Hamill's passions.
"It said that if you're the son of a longshoreman or a taxi driver, you can study Spinoza too," he says. "That changed this country. It unleashed the genius of this country."
Hamill eventually gave up painting, fell in love with writing, returned to New York and started at the Post in 1960. Perhaps the most bizarre point in his long and illustrious newspaper career came in 1993 as the Post's editor. The paper was in trouble, with the staff openly warring with mercurial publisher Abe Hirschfeld, who had temporarily fired Hamill.
At one point after Hamill was forced out of the building, he worked with staff members to put out the paper from a nearby diner.
"The Washington Post the next day had a headline that said, Î'Nothing Could Be Finer Than to Edit in a Diner,'" he says. "It was that sense - we didn't know. Every day you went in there was no script. It was all an improvisation. It was like playing Minton's in 1948."
That's Pete Hamill, connecting a scene at the Post in the early 90's with a jazz club from the late 40's. The past is always present in his New York — the city that was, the city that is - just as the theme that shaped his life, his parents' immigrant story, lives on a century later with today's immigrants.
"When I talk to the Chinese guys on Canal Street about their Yankee caps, they don't know from Babe Ruth, they've never heard about the Brooklyn Dodgers, they don't know Mantle or DiMaggio. It says ÎNew York' on the cap, and they're wearing it because of that, because they love being here," he says. "Anything is better than where they came from, and this is infinitely better. Their kids in the morning, going down Chambers Street going to Stuyvesant High School, getting a free education of the highest quality in the United States, I look at them and I get thrilled about being an American."
And a New Yorker who's had a passion for his work for more than 40 years.
"To have been a newspaperman for me is an honor," he says. "When they cart me out to Greenwood [Cemetery] it'll just say ÎNewspaperman' on that piece of stone that says who the hell the former guy is that's lying under it."

A guide to the choice of tuft.
TO MAINTAIN THE QUALITY of the Mason Pearson Hairbrush it is not mass produced. Most of the work is carried out by hand, using techniques pioneered and patented by the founder - Mason Pearson - over one hundred years ago and improved over succeeding generations.
Boar Bristle
|Boar Bristle & Nylon tufts:
generally used for normal to
thick hair.
|Nylon tufts:
generally used for
thick hair.

We have established the guidelines below based on our customers experience over many years; please note that these can be general only.
For more information on any of the sections below please click where specified:
In general :
|Pure Bristle brushes: For fine to normal hair, fine long hair.
The models: Large Extra, Small Extra, Handy Bristle and Pocket Bristle.

|All Nylon brushes: For very thick hair.
The models: Universal, Handy Nylon (Detangler) and Pocket Nylon.
Long Hair:
In general, the longer the hair the bigger the brush required. However, if a person is more comfortable with a smaller brush, it may be necessary to use a smaller mixture model instead of a larger pure bristle one.

Wedding Flowers – Worth Every Penny!
This is the first in a three part series about why wedding flowers are worth every penny. Yes, flowers for your wedding (or any event) can be pricey but let me explain why – essentially you are paying for three important things – quality, experience and hard work.
This first post in the series will address quality.
Yes, I understand – you can go to Costco or Trader Joe's and pick up a nice looking bunch of flowers for $5, I get it, but I get much better quality flowers as a professional floral designer and I have incredible access to a wide variety of flowers from all over the world. I know which vendors have the best orchids, which have the best roses, I can go on and on but you get it, and really, you don't really want the flowers at your wedding to look like they came from the aforementioned retail outlets, do you?
The photos of your wedding day will be in your family forever – make sure that you love your flowers so when you look at those photos of the day with your closest friends, family and loved ones you're not cringing but smiling.
I've also developed relationships with my suppliers and they will call and tell me if something I've ordered looks less than perfect so we can make the appropriate substitutions. I had one of my favorite wholesale reps running to the airport to pick up the needed hydrangeas for one of our weddings this past summer. That is worth the money!
The quality of the flowers on your big day also depends so much on how they've been processed, stored and transported – we'll talk more about that in the next two posts.
As a professional floral designer I care about the quality of the flowers and the final design we deliver, every design we do has our name on it.

American Eagle Energy announced that, together with its partner, Big Sky Operating, the Company has entered into a purchase and sale agreement with a private company to acquire 49,900 net acres (78 sections) in the emerging Bakken Source System play located in the Southern Alberta Basin.
"We are pleased to be securing this significant acreage position across an area that our technical team has identified as having pay potential in multiple horizons in the heart of the rapidly developing Alberta Bakken play," stated Richard Findley, the Company' s Chief Executive Officer. "This acquisition is the first step in a three-prong strategy by the Company to obtain large, contiguous acreage positions in both the Bakken Basin Facies and the Bakken Dome Facies plays, which have been described in previous releases."

Closing of the acquisition is scheduled for the end of the month. Initial evaluation and testing of the prospect is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2011 and may involve drilling up to three wells in 2011.

On one side of each postcard you could draw a house, on the other write the address (see below), leave some space for the stamp, and add your personal message.
Examples of messages:
- Forced evictions and the segregation of Roma children and families in degraded and overcrowded settlements are not the solution, they are the problem!
- I call on the Italian authorities to provide Roma children and their families with adequate alternative housing solutions, in consultation with the affected communities.
Remember to add your name, the place where you write from, and your signature. One of the twin postcards will address the Prefect of Rome, while the other one will be sent to AI Italy, which will deliver all received postcards to a Roma community to show the solidarity of AI members and activists all over the world.
2) Take a picture of yourself holding the twin postcards in your hands, and Email your photo to: mailto:email@example.com one image per email. Please do not resize them.
