Film director and screenwriter Jim Jarmusch is also a musician — not surprisingly, a very cinematic musician. His tastes in music are so much a part of his films: He often casts musicians in key roles and music as part of the storyline. Think about his film Down by Law, with saxophonist John Lurie and singer Tom Waits. Or Stranger Than Paradise, in which "I Put a Spell on You" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins is a key character. The list is pretty long.
In 2010, Jarmusch curated the music festival All Tomorrow's Parties and joined us as a guest DJ on All Songs Considered to talk about his picks including Sunn 0)))/Boris, Raekwon, Hope Sandoval and T-Model Ford, who all make music with a rather dark veneer. In his own music, Jarmusch can usually be found playing dense, languid guitar textures — this recording with Jozef Van Wissem is a fine example. Van Wissem plays the lute with his heart equally in the 17th and 21st century. His love for the Baroque seems equal to his love for cut and paste techniques and finding adventure in the antique.
Together the two musicians have made a record called The Mystery of Heaven and it's out Nov 13th. Here's a song from the record, called "Etimasia."

I googled 36" range double oven and came up with several options. Verona and Fratelli come to mind. |

Rebecks, Have you looked at Aga? The 36" Aga Legacy actually has 3 ovens, not 2. Those who have them seem to really love them. |
- Posted by GreenDesigns (My Page) on Sat, Apr 14, 12 at 12:09
It's a matter of logistics. 36" with multiple ovens means multiple small ovens. You won't be able to do the "American standard" of a 20 lb. roast turkey in your oven. That takes at least a 4-5 cubic foot oven to be able to accomplish. You can probably do a 12 lb. turkey in the "large" oven and a 3 pound hen in the tiny oven though, which might be closer to how most people cook 90% of the time. To get at least one American sized oven, you'll need to go to a 48" range, and you'll get one regular and one small. Move up to a 60" and you get two regular sized ovens. |

Students at Mesa Westwood High School are getting a exposure to the art of spoken word thanks to Mesa Arts Center's hosting of "Word Becomes Flesh," a choreopoem performance that was held at the center last week and parts of which will be shown during spark! Mesa Festival of Creativity being held at the center March 16-17.
Choreopoems are a mixture of poetry recitals, dance and other artforms produced much like plays that tell stories or follow a unifying theme.
But MAC arts education outreach coordinator Mandy Buscas explains the opportunity blossomed into more than just a show.
"A part of bringing in ('Word becomes Flesh') was the option for a year-long artists-in-residence with some of the guys who actually perform in the play, so we decided to take advantage of that opportunity to start to bring spoken word into the community," Buscas said.
Then, MAC hired Phonetic Spit, a valley-wide literacy organization, to work with three schools — two in Phoenix and Westwood — to establish poetry clubs and work toward developing spoken word poetry that expresses participating students' personal narratives.
Phonetic Spit, cofounded by local artists and poets Tomas Stanton, who performs spoken word poetry with hop-hop and other music and dance forms, and Myrlin Hepworth, a nationally touring slam poet, is a grassroots organization that teaches spoken word poetry to help enhance literacy.
Stanton said it's not just plain illiteracy that is being remedied.
He said the enhancement of literacy actually comes teaching what he sees as three levels of other types of literacy.
The first level, he said, is emotional literacy, including "being able to understand that emotions are valid, that it's OK for them to feel certain ways."
"As emerging adults they have to be able to understand their emotions and have an outlet to express how they feel," Stanton said.
Stanton said the next form is oral literacy. He said it is important for students to learn to express themselves verbally and in front of audiences, noting "the biggest fear of most people is public speaking."
"They learn the power of their voice and begin to use it and articulate it in a constructive manner," he said.
The third level, Stanton said, is cultural literacy, an understanding and awareness of the community and how to create a dialogue to discuss social problems and issues.
Stanton said that by teaching the three levels students become better readers and writers.
"They don't realize they are becoming better readers and writers because they're focused on telling their stories … in order to do that you have to be well-read, you have to write," he said. "It's really about combating all types of illiteracy."
Westwood English teacher Rachel Collay, also the faculty advisor to the school's poetry club, said the work students have done with Phonetic Spit and the artists from "Word Becomes Flesh" have had a positive effect on the students who have participated.
One student in particular, a shy student named Sarah, who would shake while reading her work to the small club of five to eight students, has composed a first-place poem for the district poetry contest and performed it in front of the entire school.
"She has barely said a word the whole year in class … just what she needed to get by," Collay said.
Some of the participating students have been working on pieces that will also be performed the spark! Festival.
Collay said she will work hard to expand the program to more students. Meanwhile, Phonetic Spit is expanding its reach as it prepares to add a similar program at Mountain View High School.

So why should we trust ANY government designed stress test, particularly when the same permissive grader, Timothy Geithner, was the moving force behind the ones dreamed up last year, which have been widely decried by banking experts, including Bill Black, Chris Whalen, and Josh Rosner? We linked to a simple analysis by Mike Konczal that demonstrates that for the biggest four banks alone, merely on their second mortgage portfolios, the stress tests of 2009 were too permissive to the tune of at least $150 billion.
Anybody want to follow up on that?
— And most important of all, Zero Hedge writes about what the Lehman report reveals about the murky, ripe-for-corruption Primary Dealer Credit Facility the Federal Reserve used to give cash to probably insolvent banks, which pledged their toxic assets as collateral. (UPDATE: Let me walk this back and dent my thesis: Eric Dash of the NYT wrote first about the Lehman Freedom CLO in the report, and Zero Hedge tipped its hat to him in its post. Apologies—and make sure to read Dash's piece.)
How toxic? We don't know. Our pal, the late Bloomberg reporter Mark Pittman, sued the Fed to reveal this information and won. But the Fed is stalling by appealing the decision, presumably hoping the whole storm will have blown over by the time it's forced to release the information. And with the way the press is treating this Lehman story three days after it dropped, why wouldn't the Fed take that gamble?
Here's Zero Hedge quoting from the Valukas report:
In March 2008, Lehman packaged 66 corporate loans to create the "Freedom CLO." The transaction consisted of two tranches: a $2.26 billion senior note, priced at par, rated single A, and designed to be PDCF eligible, and an unrated $570 million equity tranche. he loans that Freedom "repackaged" included high-yield leveraged loans, which Lehman had difficulty moving off its books, and included unsecured loans to Countrywide Financial Corp…
Lehman did not intend to market its Freedom CLO, or other similar securitizations, to investors. Rather, Lehman created the CLOs exclusively to pledge to the PDCF. An internal presentation documenting the securitization process for Freedom and similar CLOs named "Spruce" and "Thalia," noted that the "[r]epackage[d] portfolio of HY [high yield leveraged loans]" constituting the securitizations, "are not meant to be marketed." Handwriting from an unknown source underlines this sentence and notes at the margin: "No intention to market.
And Dick Fuld's press criticism/management, also from the Valukas report:
Lehman may have also managed its disclosures to ensure that the public did not become aware that the CLOs were not created to be sold on the open market, but rather were intended solely to be pledged to the PDCF. An April 4, 2008 e-mail containing edits to talking points concerning the Freedom CLO to be delivered by Fuld stated:
"Given that the press has not focused (yet) on the Fed window in relation to the [Freedom] CLO, I'd suggest deleting the reference in the summary below. Press will be in attendance at the shareholder meeting and my concern is that volunteering this information would result in a story."
To be clear, I'm not saying the media have not done good work so far on this story. Bloomberg had a tough story this weekend looking at the implications of the report for Dick Fuld (emphasis mine):
"I am the one who ultimately signs off and I'm comfortable with our valuations at the end of our second quarter," then- Chief Executive Officer Fuld said on the conference call. "We have always had a rigorous internal process."
The rigor was based on a shaky foundation, according to a 2,200-page report about the firm's demise by Anton Valukas, the examiner for the bankrupt firm. Lehman Brothers "reverse- engineered" a key measure of stability, masking the firm's true financial condition, Valukas said. Some asset valuations were also "unreasonable," he said.
Keen to show that it had reduced leverage, a gauge of a company's ability to withstand losses, Chief Financial Officer Ian Lowitt said on the June 16 call that the firm had shrunk its net leverage ratio to 12 times from 15.4 in the second quarter.
It accomplished the feat by reducing net assets by $70 billion, said Lowitt, who had just replaced Erin Callan in his post. "We're going to operate conservatively," he said.
Unbeknownst to shareholders, the firm was hiding $50 billion in assets through off-balance-sheet transactions known as Repo 105s that temporarily removed holdings until days after the quarter closed, according to Valukas. In the first quarter, the firm had used the same strategy to hide $49 billion in assets, he said in the report.

The carrot category isn't what it used to be.
Sure, you still can find bunches of carrots with bushy, green tops. But for the most part, the carrot segment today consists of various sized bags of baby carrots, carrot chips, coins and sticks, shredded carrots, organic carrots and even colored carrots.
"The vast majority of all the carrots that are sold are baby carrots," says Phil Gruszka, vice president of marketing for Grimmway Farms, Bakersfield, Calif.
Manuel Rodriguez, produce manager for Nob Hill Foods, Salinas, Calif., part of the Sacramento, Calif.-based Raley's Supermarkets chain, agrees.
Baby carrots in packages ranging from a half-ounce to 5 pounds outsell all the other carrot offerings at Nob Hill Foods.
"They're great for kids' lunches," Rodriguez says.
The 1-pound cello bag is the most popular choice.
Full-size carrots are the slowest sellers at Nob Hill Foods, with some customers picking up 5-pound bags primarily to make juice, he says.
The store sells about 50 pounds of bulk carrots a day, and only sells two to four bunches of carrots with green tops each day.
Bagged product is more convenient, Rodriguez says. "You just grab it and go."
The store features one pack style or another on ad approximately every other week.
Rodriguez merchandises packaged carrots on a three-shelf refrigerated table, and he displays bulk carrots among salad ingredients, like celery and red leaf and romaine lettuces.
Top sellers
Baby carrots also are top sellers at the Landis Supermarket location in Schwenksville, Pa., says Pat Kendig, assistant produce manager – especially around the holidays, when they're prime ingredients in vegetable trays for parties.
The store also offers a petite carrot as well as regular-size carrots that shoppers often buy as an ingredient for soups in the fall.
The store sells some loose carrots, but store personnel bag most bulk carrots rather than sell them in bunches.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
[OS] GERMANY - German report sees coalition rapprochement in agreeing Tax cuts

Text of report in English by independent German Spiegel Online website
on 7 November
[Report by Florian Gachmann: "Coalition Rapprochement: Merkel Government
Agrees on Mini-Tax Cut"]
Chancellor Angela Merkel's coalition government has agreed to cut taxes
by six billion euros from 2013 in a compromise deal to end weeks of
public wrangling that had threatened to undermine her government.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's coalition on Sunday night reached agreement
on moderate tax cuts amounting to 6 billion ($8.22 billion) from 2013,
ending weeks of political wrangling among the ruling parties.
The parties were under intense pressure to settle their differences and
prevent their public spat over tax policy from spinning out of control.
Members of the Christian Social Union (CSU) party, the Bavarian sister
party to Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU), had
made threatening hints about pulling out of the coalition unless their
policy demands were met.
Opinion polls show public support for the government has been slipping
and the dispute has fanned the impression that Merkel's coalition is too
divided to govern effectively - an especially damaging image at a time
when Merkel is struggling to contain the euro crisis.
"This is a step towards more justice in taxes, but it also strengthens
growth in Germany," Merkel told a news conference after over the talks
between the party leaders on Sunday.
In addition to tax cuts, the parties agreed to increase support for
childcare and for people suffering from dementia, to boost investment in
construction and to make it easier to recruit foreign skilled labour.
But some commentators said the measures agreed were unlikely to herald a
fresh start for the coalition after two years of policy stagnation.
Centre-left daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung referred to them as "tired
compromises of a tired coalition."
"Is this the new beginning, the longed-for launch into the second half
for the centre-right alliance? Probably not," the newspaper wrote. "By
comparison with the24 billion in tax cuts the coalition promised when it
was set up, this tax cut is a joke."
Tax Cuts May Be Blocked
Securing tax cuts, albeit slight ones, was especially important for the
pro-business Free Democratic Party (FDP), which promised them ahead of
the 2009 election and has suffered a dramatic slide in opinion polls
since then.
The CSU meanwhile, agreed to the cuts because the FDP dropped its
opposition to boosting childcare support. The horse-trading led to a
deal acceptable to all parties - especially to Merkel, who has
repeatedly demonstrated she is ready to make major policy concessions to
secure her power base.
She has even proposed the introduction of a minimum wage,a policy her
party has long opposed, in a move widely seen as paving the way for a
future alliance with the centre-left opposition party, the Social
Democrats, and boosting her social profile in the face of public concern
over the cost of bailing out high-debt euro nations and banks.
It remains unclear if the government will be able to implement the tax
cuts, though, because the SPD has said it opposes them, and Merkel
doesn't have a majority in the upper legislative chamber, the Bundesrat.

I think Kings have a deeper talent pool on the back end. Hawks would have the edge up front, but again the Kings are slowly growing and with depth. Goaltending, def. in the favor of the Kings.
Hawks back end is new and young and will take some time to gel. Saturday marked the first time all season the Hawks were actually healthy. I'll give the Kings the edge in goaltending but look what the Hawks do against good goalies.
As enthusiastic as I am about the Kings' back end, I do like the depth of Chicago's defense. I will give the Kings the edge in goal, although Turco did steal the show during their last meeting. Los Angeles is great up front and still have a lot of depth at the forward positions with players either waiting in the wings in Manchester or further developing their skills in junior. For me, though, again, it comes down to the cap. If the Hawks can find a way to free themselves of the Huet contract and trade Campbell for a cheaper defenseman, then good for them. Until then, though, the option of acquiring another forward or defenseman is the Kings' biggest advantage over the Blackhawks right now.
HUET IS NOT ON THIS TEAM. He is playing in Europe. The Hawks are still paying him but it does not count against the cap. Campbell may be over paid but it an extremely valuable member of the team, just look how they struggled to start the season and when he was hurt last year. The old GM Dale Tallon is the one who signed guys like Buff, Versteeg, Huet, Hossa and Campbell to big contracts. The new contracts of Keith, Kane and Toews are much more cap friendly. Few teams can compare to our depth on defense: Keith, Seabrook, Soup, Campbell, Boyton, Cullimore, Hendry, Scott and #1 blue line prospect Nick Leddy in Rockford who started the season with the team. Then at forwards: Kane Toews Stalberg, Hoosa, Bolland, Sharp while the back 2 lines are a mix of vets and young guys who are getting used to playing together but the 4th line of Dowell Skille and Bickell have been very productive Can't wait to see the Hawks vs Kings on the 27th
Blackhawks are 2-0 against the Kings this year. One in Chicago and one in LA. My only question is where is the offense for the Kings because your goalie can't get a shutout every night

The weekend before last, Dr. Serena Simoni of our political science department accompanied six students to the 2011 National Model United Nations held in Washington, D.C., joining representatives from eighty universities from around the world. The Samford team was selected to receive the 'Honorable Mention' award, no small accomplishment given the intense competition. Head delegate Devon Arnold and delegates Gabriella Cappo, Samantha McFarland, Mary Evelyn Todd, Thomas Espy and Andrew Mays were recognized at the closing ceremony for their performance in representing the Republic of Portugal. Dr. Simoni adds, "As a new faculty member at Samford University I want to stress how impressed I was by the seriousness and the competence of our students' participation. I felt proud of them and very happy to be their Model UN Advisor. I believe that programs like this strongly contribute to the preparation of our students who will soon enter an increasingly competitive world."
The world is better because of Samford's engagement with global issues.
The mission of Samford University is to nurture persons in their development of intellect, creativity, faith, and personhood. As a Christian university, the community fosters academic, career, and ethical competency while encouraging social and civic responsibility, and service to others.
The Samford community values lifelong:
Anchored in Christian understanding, Samford University will be a diverse community, stressing vigorous learning and personal faith, in the Baptist tradition. Within that commonality, the Community will be innovative in teaching, learning and research; sensitive to global issues; aggressive in self-assessment and continuous improvement. Faithful to its mission, Samford will be known and acknowledged worldwide by holding to its core values. The world will be better for it.

We're on a deep well that's high in iron, the water is perfectly clear but does have a high dissolved iron content which over time makes whites a brownish color. Other than chlorine bleaching (which isn't recommended with many whites) are there other additives or methods to use which will get rid of the iron stains? Thanks for all advice. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Chlorine bleach is a no, it sets iron stains. A specific product for rust removal is needed. Or a filter on the household water supply. |
Chlorine bleach will make the problem worse. There are commercial products to remove the iron; I know Rit Dye makes one. For a permanent, albeit somewhat expensive, permanent solution, your water will need to be filtered with a filter specifically for iron. |
Thanks for the ideas! |
