"A treasure-trove indeed, especially for all admirers of Pierre Monteux – eight CDs (selling for the price of six) of Boston Symphony Orchestra concert performances given between 1951 and 1958 in Symphony Hall. This set includes a mouth-watering selection of repertoire, some familiar to Monteux's discography (but not in these versions, everything here is "previously unpublished") and introducing pieces new to it. The sound throughout is excellent – full-bodied, well-balanced mono that has been re-mastered to the highest standards by Maggi Payne.
The first disc makes for a very enjoyable programme. Indeed Haydn's 'Surprise' Symphony and Schubert's 'Great' C major both come from a February 1956 concert, in which Paul Creston's Second was also performed. (There are three complete concerts altogether albeit dispersed over the discs.) The Haydn is bustling and muscular, and the Schubert begins in stately fashion before becoming high-energy; the 'slow' movement is furtive and belted-through, the scherzo (without any repeats) exciting and incisive. In context, the finale is quite measured, ending resoundingly. Not the only way to do it, but there is a real thrill to this performance caught on the wing. The overture to this collection is Mendelssohn's 'The Hebrides', an atmospheric account from April 1957.
The second disc includes Schumann's Rhenish Symphony (1955) and Tchaikovsky's Fifth (1957). The Schumann begins ebulliently without being rushed – this is a noble account full of sunshine – before the character-pieces that form the middle triptych of movements steal in, each unaffected but meaningful. The finale enjoys a relaxed gait. The Tchaikovsky, which Monteux and the Bostonians recorded commercially (as they did the Fourth and 'Pathétique' symphonies, and they are in this West Hill collection, too) is quite volatile, and viscerally passionate; confidential, too, at times, such as at the opening of the second movement, which is granted a quite beautiful and inward horn solo.
The 'Pathétique' (1955) receives an intense and, in the outer movements, quite a spacious reading (the whole being two minutes longer than on the RCA version, John Canarina advises in his booklet note). The Fourth (1958) isn't quite the "whirlwind performance" that Canarina describes. The opening fanfare tumbles forward a bit, though, yet there is weighty consideration before the movement gets going, somewhat emptily it must be said, albeit with some beguiling ballet-like interjections. The pizzicato scherzo isn't quite as nifty as Canarina believes, and the finale is noisy rather than triumphal.
Some relative rarities of Tchaikovsky are also included (all from 4 February 1955, the concert that culminated with the 'Pathétique'): 'Hamlet', then the finale ('Theme and Variations') from Suite No.4 ('Mozartiana'), which is slightly cut, as is Concert Fantasy, if rather more so, with Vera Franceschi as the piano soloist. She plays with brilliance and rippling delicacy.
Other concerto collaborations include Tossy Spivakovsky in Bartók's Second Violin Concerto (1954), a rather subdued account at times, Spivakovsky brightening for more demonstrative passages (and arguably too fast in the finale) but looking deeply into introspective sections. With Roman Totenberg as soloist, Monteux conducts Szymanowski's Violin Concerto No.1 (1955). He and Totenberg find the music's exoticism and line in just balance, the violinist's silvery tone and chiselled agility ideal for this music.
Wagner and Debussy are collected from a December 1951 concert and includes a gloriously expansive if rather overloud Prelude to Act One of 'Parsifal'. Two 'bleeding chunks' from 'Götterdämmerung' are included as are Debussy's 'Gigues' and 'Jeux', and both are authoritative.
The 'Sacre du P_rintemps' The 'Sacre du Printemps' is a performance that has much to teach us about pacing the work (which Monteux premiered). Vincent D'Indy's 'Istar' (1956) has its magical qualities revealed lovingly.
There are two "original stereo" recordings (re-mastered by Aaron Z. Snyder), from a 3 January 1958 concert (which ended with the Tchaikovsky Fourth included here, but that is mono). Both offer good two-channel, quite close-up (vividly revealing Monteux's use of antiphonal violins). Monteux had innate and inside knowledge of Stravinsky's 'Petrushka' (in 1911 he had conducted the world premiere of the staged ballet, and this set also includes a 'Suite' – of Monteux's choice? – performed in 1955). In particular, tempos (for the most part) are thoroughly convincing, Monteux sticking with the original scoring (it seems that once Stravinsky had revised the orchestration of 'Petrushka' in 1947 he granted permission to only two conductors to continue to use the 1911 version, one was Monteux, the other was Ernest Ansermet). The other 'stereo' is Prokofiev's 'Classical' Symphony, the first movement rushed along to no advantage, the remaining ones more convincingly paced.
Certainly Monteux admirers will not hesitate and will be gratified at the excellence of the source material, the skill with which it is presented, and the insight of the annotation."
- Colin Anderson, CLASSICALSOURCE.COM
"Pierre Monteux had one of the longest musical careers in memory, exceeded perhaps only by Pablo Casals and Leopold Stokowski. He retained a youthful appearance (and a full head of black hair!) well into old age, and he was well loved by colleagues and audiences alike.
He started violin studies at the age of six and then entered the Paris Conservatoire at the age of 9. He made his conducting début in Paris at the age of 12. He was a co-winner of the first prize for violin in 1896, with the great violinist Jacques Thibaud. He served as principal violist in the Opéra-Comique, and was also assistant conductor and concertmaster of the Concerts Colonne. In 1894 he joined the Quatuor Geloso as a violist and was priviledged to participate in the performance of a Brahms quartet in the composer's presence. In 1908 he became conductor of the Orchestre du Casino in Dieppe and in 1911 founded a series called the Concerts Berlioz. In the same year, he began a historic association when he was hired by Diaghilev to conduct his Ballets Russes. He led the premieres of Ravel's DAPHNIS ET CHLOÉ, Debussy's JEUX, and Stravinsky's PETRUSHKA and RITE OF SPRING, the last of which caused a notorious audience riot.
In 1914, when war broke out, he was called to military service. He received a discharge in 1916 and travelled to the United States, where he obtained a conducting post at the Metropolitan Opera that lasted until 1919. At that point he was engaged to conduct the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Taking up the post in 1920, he walked into a labor dispute, with his musicians on strike; by the time the strike was settled, the concertmaster and 30 other musicians had left. Monteux had to rebuild the orchestra - a difficult task, but an opportunity for Monteux to mold the orchestra according to his own taste; ever since then, the Boston Symphony Orchestra has been known for its French sound and its expertise in French and Russian repertoire. He remained in Boston through 1924, gaining a reputation as a supporter of modern music. He brought to America not only Stravinsky and the French composers, but such others as Respighi, Vaughan Williams, and Honegger.
In 1924 he began a ten year association with the Amsterdam Concertgebouw. He was a good fit with the orchestra's other conductor, Willem Mengelberg, who had a Romantic-era style, and who specialized in traditional repertoire and Dutch composers. In addition, Monteux founded the Orchestre Symphonique de Paris in 1929, and the École Monteux, a coaching school for young conductors in 1932.
In 1936 he returned to the United States as conductor of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, staying in that position through the 1952 season. During World War II he obtained American citizenship and transferred his École Monteux to his new hometown of Hancock, Maine, where Erich Kunzel, Neville Marriner, and André Previn were among his students. He guest conducted and recorded extensively, and in 1961, at the age of eighty-six, accepted the musical directorship of the London Symphony Orchestra.
RCA Victor recorded him extensively in stereo, not only in Debussy, Ravel, Milhaud, Stravinsky, and the like, but also in Beethoven and Brahms; Monteux was especially noted for his performances of these composers' music, to which he brought an unusual charm and lyrical quality. He strove for transparency of sound, precision, light and springy rhythms, and that elegance that seems particularly associated with French music."

Here is the first official image of Andre 3000 as Jimi Hendrix in the film, All Is By My Side.
Jimmy James, an unknown backup guitarist, left New York City for London, England in 1966. A year later he returned — as Jimi Hendrix. All Is By My Side brings authenticity and poignancy to the story of the man behind the legend, and of the people who loved and inspired him.
The film is going a 30 Rock Janis Joplin type route as it will not feature any songs recorded or composed by Hendrix himself, as the late guitarist's estate declined permission. However it will have songs by The Beatles and blues legend Muddy Waters that Hendrix covered.
The film also stars Hayley Atwell, Imogen Poots, Burn Gorman, Ruth Negga, Adrian Lester and Ashley Charles, who plays a young Keith Richards.
What are your thoughts on Andre 3000 as Jimi?

Has 'terrorism' become a meaningless word?
It's one of the stranger looking days in the WHYS office. Our colleague Rabiya is getting married, so we are all looking our smartest (which is still some grades below what some people would call smart) and are off to her reception as soon as the show's done. So if I sound a little snappier on air, you'll know it's the suit that's doing it.
Here are today's topics.... if you'd like me to email them to you each day, just let me know.
Four British soldiers and their translator were killed in Basra yesterday. Tony Blair called the explosion which killed them 'an act of terror'. The phrase has prompted discussion online about whether the word 'terrorism' should be applied to attacks on military personnel. Some say it refers to attacks on civilians.
Is there a danger that if Mr Blair, and others, use such a broad definition of the word, that it will become redundant, and that the concept of a 'war on terror' will lack any coherence? Or is he right to include these kind of attacks under the umbrella of terrorim.
The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan and a dozen non-governmental organisations have accused demonstrating madrassa students of "harassing and terrorising ordinary citizens of Pakistan in the name of Islam". The students have been demanding that video shops and brothels in Islamabad shut. One cleric in turn is threatening suicide bomb attacks if the government tries to stop the students pursuing their beliefs. This follows further debate in the Pakistani and international press about whether radical Islam is beginning to dominate Pakistani life.
We'll hear from all sides of the debate in Pakistan - and if you've a question for Pakistanis involved in the debate, then send it in now.
I'm off next week sunning myself in Cornwall (I know another week off...) so Jo Fidgen and Peter Dobbie will be keeping you on your toes. I'm sure you'll make them feel at home. I'll think of you all as I wrestle another bass aboard my Dad's boat.
Speak to you later.

Geezz the cold air & winds really kicked up last night late...blowing hard...heard the sunroom windows getting hit all night long. Hoped no plants outside it are damaged...last time a branch of one of my apple trees was ripped off :(
I did cover my precious plants inside the sunroom....and on the front porch flowers too. These winds just ruin them. Got up this morning to 35 degrees outside.....(they said it would be 21 this morning so I am thrilled). Sunroom is 45 inside it. We have this HUGE tumbleweed in front of out front door!!!! I can't wait for my husband to try and go outside to get the newspaper (maybe it has blown away....;) Maybe we should use it to make a snowman??? Have to find a couple more tumbleweeds-hmmm..I "think" I could find more here somewhere...oh wait...there went one...........!!! Weather.com says the winds are blowing at 13mph but I think that is way wrong...add another 45 (at least) to it. High today will be in the 40's. OK..I know some of you guys have snow so I will stop my whinning- well, maybe not ;) Beca |

Tumbleweeds in the yard? LOL, a Tumbleweed Snow Man sounds interesting. If you make one, take a picture and get it into Webshots. It may be a one of the most downloaded pictures! The weather has gotten really nasty in Southern Nevada, with a predicted low of 28 the last Wed of the month. Thankfully, it should warm up for the weekend. My parents tried to cover their gardenia with a blanket and it got blown away last night. They put the orchid underneath a patio table next to the house. I got them to bring the Arabian jasmine inside. At least it was blooming and is adding a nice smell. But the weather is bad in our part of the world, including Southern CA. This is a cold Santa Ana day, the winds are kicking up to 60 MPH in the canyons. Everyone re-learns what the botanists mean when they describe eucalyptus trees as "self'pruning". In other words, when the winds hit 40 MPH, the branches start to fall off when it feels like it. Sadly, heavy branches have been known to smash houses and cars, sometimes with people inside. According to weather.com, the average high Temp for las Vegas is 57 for both January and December, and an average low of 37 degrees. So, it'll be a while before I start doing much gardening in Nevada. I'm a cold weather wimp. But I'll be in town for my parents' housewarming and house blessing. They were hoping to spend some time outside, but all the line dancing will have to be done in the garage! |

You're not kidding about the wind. Yesturday was trash pick up day and I went out to retrieve our can and it was gone. Had to walk down the street to find it. I had a apricot tree that needed planting to replace one that died but decided I needed to do it on a day where I wouldn't be blown to Arizona. Then we were supposed to get really cold Wednesday night. First we heard 24 F then it was raised to 26. I don't think it got down that far and thank goodness for that. Our heat pump won't heat and we couldn't get a repairman out until the friday after Thanksgiving. We were in NO. CA. so we had to put it off until this Monday. Well the repair guy says they can't get Trane parts in town so we'll have to wait until it arrives on Friday best case to get it repaired. Everybody got lots of blankets last night and I'm planning on baking that Thanksgiving Turkey we weren't here to cook. Oh, and that fireplace we ordered and put a big deposit on over six weeks ago is nowhere to be found. Well it should be interesting to see what might have croaked from the cold. First we have the blistering summer to kill of anything that doesn't like living in a blast furnace and then there's nights like last one to take care of the other end of the spectrum. Just makes me appreciate the great plants that take it all in stride. Baking (for today) Maria |
Well, I am soo sorry to hear about your heater problems Maria. Blowing you LOTS of hot air to warm your house til the heater gets fixed...and the fireplace gets found. I can't imagine how cold it must be-yikes. Keep the oven working-hehehe...it can be your temporary heater. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner!!! I had that same problem at our other house once...playing search and you "might" find garbage cans down the street somewhere (and once a filled oil pan...found safe & sound across the street on our neighbors porch)!! We had a patio table umbrella fly in our backyard once while we lived there. No one ever said they were missing it??? Just how far did it fly from, I wondered. This morning it is not windy anymore. I slept wonderful last night-thank goodness. When the wind blows like that it hits the sunroom windows and is noisy. Beca~ |

Beca, We too have a cat who likes to bring us presents. Occasionally it is a mouse but more often it's some hapless bird. She will come to the front or back door and meow to be let in but her meow sounds strange because she's holding her "gift." When I hear that meow I no longer let her in as I'm not so crazy about her presents. One year in spring she brought us baby rabbits. Like a dummy I would rescue them when they were alive and set them loose. Now with all the rabbit problem in our neighborhood I'm kicking myself for it! I'm jealous of your tomatoes. Our greenhouse has protected our plants a little but I have a cold and neglected to turn on the heating pad in there the last two nights and am afraid to look now. At least we finally got our heater fixed on Friday. After the last week of cold did that ever feel great. Oh, I like your idea of tumbleweed snowman, we just give the tumbleweed we collect to our horses and they disappear like everything else of plant material in the corral, including the barn siding! Maria |
Maria I am so glad your heater is repaired and working :):):) I thought about you all week long. Would you beleive that out here in Pahrump...no store is bringing in Christmas trees? Kinda hard to believe this. We drove into Las Vegas yesterday to buy one. (Last year Ace Hardware had some but this year nope. Weird.) Cats are funny creatures. Casey and the dogs got 3 mice in total. One Mommie and 2 babies. I can remember my cat bringing my Mom "a present" many moons ago and she just screamed for my Dad to come take it away. She was not happy to get the present-I think it was a dead lizard. Our hunters are "still" on mouse alert...constantly watching for a mouse. So far-I hope they are gone from here. That is funny about your saving the baby rabbits. So far we are lucky they have not dug under our fences. We have to go find 2 smaller tumbleweeds today. Neighbor says the association has been picking them up all over this place so I hope we find some..LOL...we bought some rebar in LV and bought a scarf and ear muffs for our snowman. We have to spray paint him white and he will be done!!! Your horses ate the barn siding??? Unbelievable. I thought goats ate almost anything... I am so glad the colder weather is gone. My yard is ugly from the winds...my poor babies. I always hate what damage the winds can do. Today we will do some needed deep watering-all of my outside container plants are very dry. Wished I had done this a couple days ago but just was too busy to think of doing it. Beca~ |

Baranek: Autism can't stop Andrew's Nick Diaz from speaking with speed
By Tony Baranek email@example.com October 6, 2013 8:12PM
Andrew's Nick Diaz (left) talks with teammate Mason Marino. | Tony Baranek/Sun-Times Media
high school
Article Extras
Updated: November 8, 2013 6:13AM
I was told the answers were going to be pretty basic when I talked with Andrew senior Nick Diaz last week. And they were. This was our conversation:
Nick, you guys have a good team.
How fun is that to be a part of it?
You had the second-best time on the team last Saturday. How cool was that?
How does your mom keep up with you when she goes on your practice runs at home?
Who's faster?
Diaz broke into a smile. That spoke volumes.
Autism isn't a fully understood neurological disorder. There is no textbook cause, and no cure. And there are no textbook cases.
I guess the average person, when hearing the word autism, immediately thinks of someone who rocks, avoids eye contact, doesn't speak much, and craves structure.
Nick has been about all of those things during his young life. Speech therapy has helped with some of it. He takes special needs classes at Andrew, but has no problem socializing at lunch period with the school population.
But being on the cross country team at Andrew has brought out his best.
Diaz has been on the varsity squad since his sophomore year. For two years prior, he competed as a runner in the Special Olympics held at Illinois State University, winning the gold medal both times in his division in the mile run.
"Nick has always been very athletic," his mom, Joan Diaz, said. "I put him in every (sports) program I could."
She got quite an eyeopener when she watched him run in a 400-yard track event as a seventh-grader.
"I almost cried, it was so beautiful," she said. "He had these long legs, and he was flying. Even the coaches said, when he was in seventh and eighth grade, 'That kid should be running with high school kids. He needs to run with faster people.' "
After his success in the Special Olympics as a freshman representing Andrew, Joan Diaz approached cross country coach Bobby Matz about her son joining the "regular" program. Matz said yes, and it's a decision he'll be grateful he made for the rest of his life.
"I was nervous about being accountable for him when I had 50 kids to deal with," Matz said. "But from Day 1 it's never been a problem. He just runs with whichever group we assign him to.
"The kids on the team, they absolutely adore him. They put him under their wing, and they protect him."
Especially his regular running partners juniors Mason Marino and Devyn Haseltine.
Marino said Matz approached him at the beginning of Diaz's sophomore year and asked if he could be, sort of, his wing man on the courses.
Diaz and Marino became fast friends as well as competitors.
"He just likes to run," Marino said. "He has fun all the time, and that's all that matters to him.
"You just have to reassure him. All he wants to hear is that he's doing good. He's got a natural talent."
Diaz's times gradually have improved. In his first meet as a sophomore he ran the 3-mile course in 24:38 minutes. By the end of the season he had registered a 19:55. His time at the Tinley Park meet two weeks ago was 17:19, his best ever.
"He's a fantastic runner," Haseltine said. "He's getting faster and faster each meet. His senior year he's faster than me. It's pretty amazing what he's accomplished.
"He kind of needed a guide. People that he is closest to he'll talk to. He's very nice to everyone on the team. He really likes us."
To say nothing of his mom.
"He would not be successful without his teammates," Joan Diaz said. "Those boys look out for him every day. They overlook his disability and look out for him."
Yep. What Devyn said. It's all pretty amazing.

Security Lessons Learned From the Diaspora Launch
Re:Axe job (338 comments)
It doesn't really matter that it's pre alpha, or whatever designation you want to give it. A platform touted as being a secure replacement for facebook ought to consist of secure code from day 1. Security needs to be built into the bones of the program, and If you read the article, you'd see that the errors made were pretty egregious. Fact is, any programmer worth his or her salt would not have started out with code like this with a plan to fix it later in future releases, they'd get it right from the very beginning. That they made these mistakes so early on speaks wonders about how inexperienced these programmers were (and hopefully are no longer now that they've learned their lesson).

PARIS - Somali pirates in two skiffs fired on a French navy vessel early Wednesday after apparently mistaking it for a commercial boat, the French military said. The French ship gave chase and captured five suspected pirates.
No one was wounded by the volleys from the Kalashnikov rifles directed at La Somme, a 3,800-ton refueling ship, said Rear Admiral Christophe Prazuck, a military spokesman.
La Somme "was probably taken for a commercial ship by the two small skiffs" some 250 nautical miles off the coast of Somalia, said Prazuck.
"They understood their mistake too late," Prazuck said.
One skiff fled, and La Somme pursued the second one in an hour-long chase.
"There were five suspected pirates on board. No arms, no water, no food," Prazuck said.
France is a key member of the European Union's naval mission, Operation Atalanta, fighting Somali pirates in the Gulf of Aden. It has aggressively tracked and caught suspected pirates and handed over at least 22 to Kenya. An additional 15 suspects were brought to France for prosecution after allegedly seizing French nationals' boats.
President Nicolas Sarkozy called for tougher action against piracy last year after dozens of attacks.

A 44-year-old man who admitted playing an "active role" in a dissident bomb attack at a PSNI station in Londonderry has been jailed for 13 years.
Philip O'Donnell, from Baldrick Court in the city, lured a taxi driver to the Brandywell area where he was hijacked by two gunmen and ordered to take a 200lb bomb to the police station in August 2010.
The court previously heard that the 44-year-old had been acting on behalf of Óglaigh na hÉireann.
O'Donnell was further said to have telephoned a 45-minute warning, but only half of that warning had expired when the bomb went off.
On Monday, Belfast Crown Court judge Mr Justice Burgess said that if O'Donnell had been a primary party in the attack on Strand Road PSNI station, he would have faced more than 20 years in jail.
"Given the nature of these offences and the terror and threat to life in this attack, the dissident group showed itself only too willing to resort to violence in pursuit of its aims and, in doing so, resorted to this highly dangerous act of causing an explosion of this magnitude," the judge said.
O'Donnell, a married father-of-four, had pleaded guilty to a total of six offences - causing an explosion on August 3 2010, hijacking the taxi the bomb was transported in, falsely imprisoning the taxi driver, membership of Óglaigh na hÉireann and two further counts of attempted hijacking.
This was a calculated criminal venture in which a totally innocent man going about his business was threatened with being shot and made to carry a highly dangerous weapon which, if it had detonated, would undoubtedly have killed him.Mr Justice Burgess
This was a calculated criminal venture in which a totally innocent man going about his business was threatened with being shot and made to carry a highly dangerous weapon which, if it had detonated, would undoubtedly have killed him.
Mr Justice Burgess
While no one was hurt in the bomb attack, it caused massive widespread damage to buildings and cars in the area.
Prosecuting QC Terence Mooney told the court that, such was the intensity of the explosion, an Ammunition Technical Officer could find no trace of the bomb itself.
But it had been estimated that it had contained 50-100 kilos of high explosive.
Mr Mooney had also outlined to the court how the driver of the hijacked taxi was ordered to drive, first to Glenfida Park where the bomb was put in the boot of his car, and then to the police station.
As the car sat parked waiting on the device being delivered, Mr Mooney said that one of the gunmen sent a text message after his accomplice told him to "tell them to hurry up".
The taxi driver was warned that he would be followed to Strand Road PSNI station and that he would be shot if he did not follow commands.
But the driver warned his depot what was happening and an evacuation operation was already underway when the car arrived.
The following day, police raided O'Donnell's home and recovered two mobile phones which had been used in the dissident republican attack.
On one of the phones, the court heard, was the text message the gunman had sent from the back of the hijacked taxi.
Mr Mooney said it was the Crown view that O'Donnell had "played an active and significant role in the plan" to attack the police station, given the fact that he had made the calls to lure the taxi drivers and to issue the bomb warning.
"Although it is accepted that the evidence indicates that he aided and abetted the principals to the offence, nevertheless his role as disclosed by the evidence was important and indicates that he knew the principal elements of the attack," the lawyer said, adding that Óglaigh na hÉireann are still involved "in a continuing campaign".
Defence QC Eilis McDermott told the court that O'Donnell's political views were influenced when he was a young man and his father was interned, but that since the offence, he regretted his involvement and the damage and impact it had had on his own family.
Jailing O'Donnell, Mr Justice Burgess said that while there was no victim impact report on the driver who had to transport the bomb, he was in no doubt "this would have been a traumatic experience".
The judge ordered that O'Donnell spend half his 13-year sentence in jail and half on licence.

The vast majority of turmeric comes from India. Turmeric is one of the key ingredients in many curries, giving them color and flavor. The root and rhizome (underground stem) are used medicinally.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
In Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric was prescribed for treatment of many conditions, including poor vision, rheumatic pains, and coughs, and to increase milk production. Native peoples of the Pacific sprinkled the dust on their shoulders during ceremonial dances and used it for numerous medical problems ranging from constipation to skin diseases. Turmeric was used for numerous intestinal infections and ailments in Southeast Asia.

The only Monarch chrysalis I have had this summer is going on three weeks old this weekend. Shouldn't it have elcosed by now? We having 70 + degree weather, which I would think hurry it along. |

I don't think I've ever had a monarch chrysalis take that long....70's is by no means COLD weather so I doubt that is an issue. It wouldn't hurt to wait another week and see what happens. even if it's not viable, I would think it would do something...ie turn black. I hope you have a surprise happy ending, Tony |
I just had one eclose after considerably more than 3 weeks. I thought they were all gone, but there it was, hanging from the brown paper bag taped to the porch drying its wings. Martha |
- Posted by fighting8r 10 Fort Myers Florid (My Page) on Mon, Oct 10, 11 at 14:24
Funny I've never had one more than two weeks but after reading Martha's post, I guess wait and see! |
I was amazed myself. I finished up with Monarchs, and had put all of my little chrysalis-covered patches of brown paper bag out on the porch, since most of them were starting to turn dark. Then I proceeded to raise a batch of BST cats to over winter. Once they were outside I thought I was done, but there was this Monarch on Saturday afternoon. We had had a few weeks of nights in the 40s and highs in the 60s. Then it warmed up into the low 80s. Maybe they can hold off for the weather they want. Martha |
I see wings in the chrysalis, so maybe tomorrow? |

Yay!! |
- Posted by coolbutterfly 4b (My Page) on Tue, Oct 11, 11 at 21:11
fingers crossed....I forgot to ask, where are you keeping the chrysalis...outside? Tony |
Yes, Tony, it's in a pop up hamper on the screened porch. |
It elcosed! Almost four weeks. I took it outside on my finger, but it wouldn't fly away. It was 6 pm so I put it back in the hamper and will try tomorrow, if we get a break in the rain. Yeah! My first monarch...even though I actually only raised it for one day. LOL |
It is foggy out and suppose to rain all day, but the next two days are not much better. Do I just release it into the fog? Or can I put some cut flowers in the hamper and wait until tomorrow morning when there is suppose to be a break for an hour or so? |
- Posted by butterflymomok (My Page) on Thu, Oct 13, 11 at 10:01
Release it! It will be OK. It will find a leaf to take shelter under if it rains. You can see if it will take some sugar water before it goes. Mix 4 parts water to one part sugar. Bring to a boil and let cool. You can soak a paper towel or use one of the plastic scrubbers. If the Monarch doesn't know what to do. Place it on the crumpled paper towel (on a saucer) so the legs touch the sugar water--tasters are in feet! And if it doesn't unroll the proboscis, use a toothpick to gently unroll it so it touches the towel. You are holding it gently but firmly, close to the body while you are doing this. Hope this makes sense. I wrote this out in a hurry as I'm off to practice being a volunteer naturalist. |
Thanks, Butteflymomok. I gave it some sugar water and set it on the screen outside. It was still there when I left for work, but was gone when I got home. However, we also had quite the storm while I was gone, so I hope he made it. |
- Posted by butterflymomok (My Page) on Thu, Oct 13, 11 at 19:58
I'm sure he made it. Butterflies have to put up with bad weather all the time, and we don't find them after storms. You did good! |
Wow - amazing it eclosed! Hope he lives a good life! |
Thanks everyone. Here's a fuzzy picture of it the day before I released it. The wind was really blowing out. |

The Darby Translation (DBY) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Keep silence before me, islands; and let the peoples renew [their] strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us draw near together to judgment. | 1 "Be silent before me, you islands! Let the nations renew their strength! Let them come forward and speak; let us meet together at the place of judgment. |
2 Who raised up from the east him whom righteousness calleth to its foot? He gave the nations before him, and caused him to have dominion over kings; he gave them as dust to his sword, as driven stubble to his bow. | 2 "Who has stirred up one from the east, calling him in righteousness to his service ? He hands nations over to him and subdues kings before him. He turns them to dust with his sword, to windblown chaff with his bow. |
3 He pursued them, he passed on in safety, by a way he had never come with his feet. | 3 He pursues them and moves on unscathed, by a path his feet have not traveled before. |
4 Who hath wrought and done [it], calling the generations from the beginning? I, Jehovah, the first; and with the last, I [am] HE. | 4 Who has done this and carried it through, calling forth the generations from the beginning? I, the LORD--with the first of them and with the last--I am he." |
5 The isles saw [it], and feared; the ends of the earth trembled: they drew near, and came. | 5 The islands have seen it and fear; the ends of the earth tremble. They approach and come forward; |
6 They helped every one his neighbour, and [each] said to his brother, Take courage. | 6 each helps the other and says to his brother, "Be strong!" |
7 And the artizan encouraged the founder, he that smootheth [with] the hammer him that smiteth on the anvil, saying of the soldering, It is good; and he fasteneth it with nails, that it be not moved. | 7 The craftsman encourages the goldsmith, and he who smooths with the hammer spurs on him who strikes the anvil. He says of the welding, "It is good." He nails down the idol so it will not topple. |
8 But thou, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham, my friend | 8 "But you, O Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, you descendants of Abraham my friend, |
9 -- thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from the extremities thereof, and to whom I said, Thou art my servant, I have chosen thee and not rejected thee, | 9 I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, 'You are my servant'; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. |
10 -- Fear not, for I [am] with thee; be not dismayed, for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. | 10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. |
11 Lo, all that are incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded; they that strive with thee shall be as nothing, and shall perish. | 11 "All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish. |
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them -- them that contend with thee; they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought. | 12 Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them. Those who wage war against you will be as nothing at all. |
13 For I, Jehovah, thy God, hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. | 13 For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. |
14 Fear not, thou worm Jacob, ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith Jehovah, and thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. | 14 Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob, O little Israel, for I myself will help you," declares the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. |
15 Behold, I have made of thee a new sharp threshing instrument having double teeth: thou shalt thresh and beat small the mountains, and shalt make the hills as chaff; | 15 "See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff. |
16 thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them; and thou shalt rejoice in Jehovah, thou shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel. | 16 You will winnow them, the wind will pick them up, and a gale will blow them away. But you will rejoice in the LORD and glory in the Holy One of Israel. |
17 The afflicted and the needy seek water, and there is none; their tongue faileth for thirst: I, Jehovah, will answer them, [I], the God of Israel, will not forsake them. | 17 "The poor and needy search for water, but there is none; their tongues are parched with thirst. But I the LORD will answer them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. |
18 I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs. | 18 I will make rivers flow on barren heights, and springs within the valleys. I will turn the desert into pools of water, and the parched ground into springs. |
19 I will give in the wilderness the cedar, acacia, myrtle, and oleaster; I will set in the desert the cypress, pine, and box-tree together; | 19 I will put in the desert the cedar and the acacia, the myrtle and the olive. I will set pines in the wasteland, the fir and the cypress together, |
20 that they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of Jehovah hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. | 20 so that people may see and know, may consider and understand, that the hand of the LORD has done this, that the Holy One of Israel has created it. |
21 Produce your cause, saith Jehovah; bring forward your arguments, saith the King of Jacob. | 21 "Present your case," says the LORD. "Set forth your arguments," says Jacob's King. |
22 Let them bring them forward, and declare to us what shall happen: shew the former things, what they are, that we may give attention to them, and know the end of them; -- or let us hear things to come: | 22 "Bring in [ your idols] to tell us what is going to happen. Tell us what the former things were, so that we may consider them and know their final outcome. Or declare to us the things to come, |
23 declare the things that are to happen hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods; yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be astonished, and behold it together. | 23 tell us what the future holds, so we may know that you are gods. Do something, whether good or bad, so that we will be dismayed and filled with fear. |
24 Behold, ye are less than nothing, and your work is of nought; an abomination is he that chooseth you. ... | 24 But you are less than nothing and your works are utterly worthless; he who chooses you is detestable. |
25 I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come, -- from the rising of the sun, he who will call upon my name; and he shall come upon princes as on mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay. | 25 "I have stirred up one from the north, and he comes-- one from the rising sun who calls on my name. He treads on rulers as if they were mortar, as if he were a potter treading the clay. |
26 Who hath declared [it] from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, [It is] right? Indeed, there is none that declareth; no, none that sheweth; no, none that heareth your words. | 26 Who told of this from the beginning, so we could know, or beforehand, so we could say, 'He was right'? No one told of this, no one foretold it, no one heard any words from you. |
27 The first, [I said] to Zion, Behold, behold them! and to Jerusalem, I will give one that bringeth glad tidings. | 27 I was the first to tell Zion, 'Look, here they are!' I gave to Jerusalem a messenger of good tidings. |
28 And I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, -- and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word. | 28 I look but there is no one-- no one among them to give counsel, no one to give answer when I ask them. |
29 Behold, they are all vanity, their works are nought, their molten images are wind and emptiness. | 29 See, they are all false! Their deeds amount to nothing; their images are but wind and confusion. |

Tropicalia is a long-term sustainable development encompassing miles of the southern coastline of the Samaná Bay in the Dominican Republic. Tropicalia promises to become one of the most luxurious destinations in all of the Caribbean. With an emphasis on low-density, low-impact development in harmony with nature, Tropicalia will be an emblem of sustainable luxury tourism throughout the Americas and the world.
Creating a unique resort experience…
The master plan for Tropicalia calls for a multi-phased development over 30 years, with an initial investment of US $2 billion. The opening of the first resort—in partnership with Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts—and the Tom Doak golf course is scheduled to open in 2016. A second property, a boutique and upscale hotel, is being developed together with Auberge Resorts and is planned for a mid-2018 launch.
The project is an important economic catalyst for the Dominican Republic, which welcomes more than four million visitors each year. We anticipate that Tropicalia will create more than 3,000 jobs in its first stage and around 14,000 when fully operational.
…while preserving a special environment
Tropicalia's holistic approach to development integrates the principles of sustainability, including protection and restoration of the natural environment, preservation of the local cultural heritage, and selection of partners and suppliers based on shared values and a commitment to sustainability.
In line with these principles, in 2008 Tropicalia established its foundation, Fundación Tropicalia, which carries out education, environment, productivity and wellbeing/culture programs that contribute to the socio-economic development and prosperity of Miches, the local community. Furthermore, in 2010 Tropicalia committed to the ten principles of the United Nations' Global Compact and since then has published two Sustainability Reports to communicate progress regarding their integration into business strategy.
Tropicalia is our most visible hotel and resort project—but not the only one. Cisneros is also focused on developing hotel and resort projects throughout the U.S. and Latin America with high-end global brands.

DO NOT DATE THEM. Seriously. It is, in many ways, even more twisted than the church goers. A lot of apologizing, rationalizing, internally struggling hypocrites. That's all it is.
Michael OL,
You sound like an intelligent, charming, and well-spoken man, Why ARE you single?
I'm single for the same reason that most of us on this sub-forum are single: we are interested in a small and elusive subset of the population, and lack the charisma, the drive and the resources to pursue our ends with the requisite intensity.
But I wasn't always single. For 8 years I was happily married, until my wife suddenly left me last summer, because she developed an uncontrollable and unalterable desire to have a child.
While I do remain optimistic of finding a partner eventually, I'm also realistic: it's going to be a long, frustrating and unnerving struggle.
Charisma is truly a double-edged trait. Viewed as a quality by most, I view charisma as a force for untruths, charisma is the number one trait which determines a successful preacher.
Charisma is not the temerity to open one's mouth in public, but the capacity to influence others without their even realizing that they are being influenced. Successful dating really is much like successful preaching. The preacher sells a doctrine, the dater sells himself. Is it crass manipulation? It can be, if wielded with malicious intent. But even if the intent is honorable, deferential and decent, the means of delivery has something louche about it. The point, therefore, is that even if the deed is good, the method must occasionally partake of the Machiavellian. "Nice guys finish last" not because they are nice, but because they limit themselves to nice means, in pursuit of nice ends.
Michael OL,
I've always thought dating was like selling yourself. It's almost like you need a portfolio and references before you are even considered a candidate.
Michael OL,
It's strange how people change people change some of their core values over the years. I understand that we change our personalities over the years however your core non-belief or belief system usually remains the same.
Myself, I find it hard to be optimistic at this stage of the dating game. I'm more cynical and realistic than I used to be.
That's the crux of religion, it builds a sense of togetherness and an uniformity that comforts people. It's like the Thinking Atheist says "Religion is easy. When you practice religion you can turn off you brain" (paraphrasing). I've met many religious people who've said to me that I need to just give my life to God so I don't have to worry anymore. One song that REALLY burns me up is Carrie Underwood's "Jesus Take the Wheel". She sings about a haggard single mom who is driving and her car slides on some ice. What are you suppose to do? Well, according her you're suppose to take your hands off the wheel and let God take over.
I think you are truly courageous! It's so hard being Atheist in itself. I've been experiencing a new kind of bias because I don't want kids. I had a date this until he found out I didn't want kids. I'm the atheism had something to do with it.
Thanks for thinking I am courageous. It was hard, sure, but it seemed the natural path. The end of that path was when I did 3 1/2 years of research into world religions, and saw what a crock it's always been. I felt bitter, lied to. I haven't trusted my family since then. Never will, most likely, considering their stance on gays. I am currently writing a book about it all.
Yeah, that Jesus takes the wheel song is nuts. I am a die hard Idol fan, but when I hear the gazillion and one contestants sing that...I am like UGH! JUST STOP.
You are right, that is what religion is. That is why I have no issue with organized atheism. I don't see it as religion- I see it as offering what people are missing when they leave religion, without the harmful BS. After all I went through, I truly believe religious indoctrination to be child abuse, particularly with regards to LGBT kids. The number they do on us is beyond brutal. Growing up gay in an environment like that is flippin' nuts. Pure torture.
If it makes you feel better, I don't want kids either. Nor do I buy into the whole "imitation heterosexual" style gay community that is put out there in an effort to gain legal equality. I understand the whole "just like them" stance in the political battle, but I also know it to be a lie. Gay life is a lot different from straight life. We spent our teenage years not exploring our dating/sexual identities like our straight counterparts, but usually enduring relentless bullying, taunts of "dyke" and "faggot," and pretending to be something we are not. As a result, our emotional development in that realm is behind that of the heterosexual community. To that end, gay life has a "forever young" feel to it, a la queer as folk, in many cases. Sure, many gay and lesbian couples want that suburban family life. However, there are those of us who want to live in gayborhoods through our 30's and even 40's, and do the club life thing. There is nothing wrong with that, and to promote the idea that it does not exist is false IMO. Necessary to achieve the goal, but false nonetheless.
I agree with your dislike of "Jesus Take the Wheel". It reminds me of a Mormon girl I dated when I was Mormon. She criticized me for wearing a seat-belt. She said if I had faith in God, I wouldn't wear a seat-belt.
Idaho Spud,
I wonder how many foolish people tried this and it was successful.

America's Best Outdoor Bars
Scott Suchman
Poste Moderne Brasserie, Washington, D.C.
Housed in the original 1841 General Post Office building, Poste's Parisian-style courtyard overflows with plants and herbs that are used to infuse vodkas for its Punch Bar. The outdoor fun continues in winter, when Poste sets up a hot cocktail and fondue bar outside with heaters, blankets and fire pits. Cocktails include This Little Piggy (bacon-infused Bulleit bourbon, spicy cayenne chocolate, milk and toasted marshmallow), and Mother's Warmth (hot mulled apple cider made with Pyrat rum, mulled apple cider, and brandied cranberries).

I was wondering if someone could tell me what kind of bugs these were and what is wrong with the leaves of this plant? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Those bugs are Harlequin Bugs. Its possible they are chewing on the leaves. Gladys |
Yup, harlequin beetles. They love all brassicas, arugula, horseradish and a few other things. That looks like HB damage to me. Just hand squish 'em. |
- Posted by nailah z6MO (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sat, Jul 21, 12 at 1:50
I have a garden of Collar greens full of Harlequin bugs. How can get rid of them organically without hand squishing each? Is there something I can spray? I have heard Warsp can get rid of them but who wants to be stung by Warsp trying to control this bug. Any help will be appreciated. |
Some possibilities: neem spinosad |

Offensive tackle Lane Johnson's mistake will cost him close to $1 million. Joel Corry
The NFL announced on Wednesday that Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson has been suspended for the first four games of the regular season for violating its performance enhancing drugs policy.
Johnson received a fully guaranteed four-year, $19,853,104 contract, which included a $12,818,620 signing bonus, as the fourth overall pick of the 2013 NFL draft. His 2014 salary consists of a $495,000 base salary and an $812,414 fifth day of training camp roster bonus.
Johnson will miss the first four games of the 2014 regular season.
Johnson's suspension will cost him $934,224. He will lose $116,470 (4/17ths) of his base salary. The Eagles will recoup the same proportion (4/17ths) of the prorated amount of his signing bonus ($3,204,655) as he's losing in base salary. This amounts to $754,036. Under the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, the standard of recoupment is different for roster, reporting and option bonuses than with signing bonuses, but Johnson will also forfeit $63,718 of his roster bonus. Johnson will be playing the 2014 season for $373,190 instead of the $1,307,414 he was originally scheduled to make.
Johnson's contract contains language that voids the remaining salary guarantees with a suspension. Most NFL contracts have these types of clauses. Johnson's suspension wipes out the $6,629,484 of salary guarantees he had in his 2014 through 2016 contract years.
The voiding of Johnson's guarantees gives the Eagles leverage to ask Johnson for a pay cut in the future and lowers the salary cap charges if they release him. For instance, Johnson's entire $6,316,897 2016 cap number would have counted against the Eagles' cap upon release in 2016 without the suspension. Since Johnson's $3,112,242 2016 salary ($675,000 base salary and $2,437,242 fifth day of training camp roster bonus) is no longer guaranteed, the only cap charge for the Eagles will be $3,204,665 of signing bonus proration if he is cut in 2016.
The ramifications for Dion Jordan, the third overall pick of the 2013 NFL draft by the Miami Dolphins, with his four-game performance enhancing drugs suspension are like Johnson's, but a little steeper since he got $719,194 more for being selected one pick higher.

This is one reason I cannot stand this show. People claim it is a show for nerds, where the premise is being a nerd.
This isn't the case; Being a nerd isn't the premise of The Big Bang Theory, it is the punchline.

Chicken Pox Puts Halt To Immigrant Processing
Thursday, July 31, 2014
(Albuquerque, NM) -- Processing of illegal immigrants is being suspended at a facility in New Mexico after one of the detainees was diagnosed with chicken pox. An Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman says the case was discovered earlier this week at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Artesia, where more than 600 people are being held for processing. ICE says the infected migrant has been separated from other detainees at the facility, which is also home to the Border Patrol Academy. There's no word on when processing at that facility will resume.
