Introduce Yourself Variations:
Information Gathering
Have people pair up and discover as much information as they can about each other in three minutes (full name, where they are from, major/job, favorite class or aspect of job, hobbies/interests, family facts). Then, the pairs introduce each other to the rest of group using all the information they learned.
Nuts & Bolts
Have nuts and bolts of different sizes making sure they match. Give each person a nut or bolt. The participants then have to find who has their match. Once they have found their match, they tell each other about themselves. Then, join the group and introduce each other with the information theyve discovered.
The group decides among themselves what information they would like to find out about the members of the group (major, job, classes, hobbies, interests, birth place, etc.). Each member introduces herself according to the demographics chosen by the group.
Name Action
The leader says his first name and then does an action that begins with the letter of his first name. The next person repeats the leaders name, does his action, and then add his own. The third repeats the first, then the second, and adds his own. Repeat around the group.
Name Game with Ball
Participants sit or stand in circle and one person has a ball. He throws it to another while saying that persons name.
Sears Catalog
Each person in the group chooses an item that might be found in a department store catalog. The item should describe something about the person: job, hobby, major, favorite food, sport, etc. The second person repeats the first ones name and object and adds his own name and object. The third person repeats the first, the second, and adds his own name and object. Repeat around the group.
Variation: Choose an item that starts with the same letter as their first name and describes something about the person.
Two Truths and a Lie
Each person tells three facts about himself, but one is not true. The group guesses which statement is the lie. After everyone has participated, ask questions of each person to find out the whole story behind one of the facts.
Have You Ever...
Have one less chair than people in a circle. The person in the middle says something he has done. Everyone who has also done that activity must run across the room and try to get a different seat while the middle person tries to find a seat. The one left out becomes the middle person and the game continues.
Bag Game Make a Statement
Fill a brown paper bag with the following items: $20 bill, keys, shoe, piece of jewelry, Bible, and candy bar. One at a time each person in the group pulls an item from the bag and makes an honest statement about it that reveals something about him. For example, if I pulled a $20 bill from the bag, I might say, If I had $20, Id buy ice cream for everybody. Statements can be profound or simple. The first to start then passes the object to the right and that person makes a statement until everyone has said a statement about it. Then, pull the second item from the bag and continue. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000, p.61.)
Bag Game How are You Different?
Fill a bag with cotton balls, stapler, scissors, paper cup, eyeglasses, paper clip, pencil with eraser, and wadded paper. One at a time each person grabs an object from the bag and names one way they are different from the item. Dont use obvious differences like This is metal, and Im not. Encourage creativity and self-revelation. For example, Unlike this pencil, I dont have the equipment to make my mistakes go away. When I botch something, the evidence is usually right out in the open for everyone to see. I cant just go over it a few times and make it disappear. I have to live with the mistakes I make. Start with a group member and continue on until everyone has had a chance to speak. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000, p.66.)
Inside and Out
Hand out three magazines and a blank sheet of typing paper folded in half to each group member. Have several rolls of Scotch tape available. Tell the members something like this, This is a two-part exercise. First, go through these magazines and find three to five pictures, phrases, or words that describe your outward life, the image you present to people, the way others see you. You can ask yourself this question, If someone followed me around for a week, what would they see? Next, find three to five pictures, words, or phrases that describe your inner life, the thoughts and feelings you keep to yourself, the person you are in your heart. Think of some things that, good or bad, very few people know about you. Give them enough time to finish the project. One at a time, have everyone briefly explain their choices about the outside. Then, repeat and have them share the inside. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000, p.66-67.)
Ive Never
Each person starts the game with five points, keeping score on one hand. Each person in turn says something they have never done. Everyone who HAS done the activity loses one point and folds down one finger. The person with the last point remaining wins.
Key Chain
Everyone gets out their key ring and, one at a time, tells the significance of everything hanging on it.
Pass around a bag of M&Ms and let everyone take as many as they would like. Dont tell them anything else. Make sure they dont eat them yet. Then, have them tell one piece of information about themselves for every M&M they took. You can specify the topics based on the M&M color. (yellow = family, red = high school story, green = a place theyve traveled, etc.)
Web Game
Have one person hold a ball of yarn in one hand and the yarn end in the other hand. As he throws the yarn ball to someone else, he says something positive about the recipient. The recipient holds onto the yarn and throws the ball to someone else saying something positive about him and the game continues. The yarn ball can be thrown multiple times to each person, each one holding onto the yarn as he throws the ball.
Variation #1: When someone catches the yarn ball, he tells something about himself before he throws it to someone else.
Variation #2: When someone catches the yarn ball, he tells a little known fact about himself before he throws it to someone else.
Balloon Game
Have each person put one piece of information about himself in a balloon. Then, have each blow up his balloon and throw it in the middle of the circle of people. One by one, pop the balloons and guess to whom that piece of information belongs.
Pictionary Stories
Hand out one Pictionary card to each person and have her tell stories about her life using three of the words on the card.
Group Recall
Participants are asked to consider whom they would choose to be if they had to be another person who has lived or is living (a real person). After they have chosen someone, the participants are next asked to reflect upon why they selected this person. When all are ready to share, the facilitator explains the process: A volunteer goes first, telling the person she would like to be and why. The next person sitting to the left first recalls what the volunteer shared and then shares her selection, etc., going around the circle.
Favorite Cards
Give each person an index card. Have them divide the index card into four sections. In one section, they draw a picture of their favorite TV show, in another section their favorite state, in the third section their favorite book or magazine, and last, their favorite food. Everyone walk around the room showing each other their cards. The object is to try to guess what the other people drew on their card. Do not tell each other whether their guesses are right or wrong; just listen. After everyone has guessed at each others card, go around the circle and tell what your favorites are.
Divide the group into groups of two, preferably with the person they know least. Send each dyad off by themselves where they wont be bothered by other dyads. For ten minutes have them share personal and important things with each other in order to know each other better. Take turns interviewing each other to gain some knowledge and understanding of their partner. After ten minutes, come back to the group and have each person tell what she learned about her partner. For a guide you may want to prepare a list of basic questions the dyads can use as a starting point.
Toilet Paper Game
Get a roll of toilet paper. Without giving any other information, pass around the roll and tell each person in the group to take as much toilet paper as they need. Then, one at a time, group members tell one thing about themselves for each piece of toilet paper they took.
Each person is given a magazine, tape, scissors, and a piece of paper. They are to create a collage that describes themselves using pictures or individual words that they find. Then, explain the collage to the group.
Picture This
Give these instructions: Paint a word picture to describe with as many details as you can how you feel about your life right now. For example, if you were to describe your life as a boat, be specific. You might be a cruise ship or a tugboat, on a calm lake or raging river rapids depending on how you feel things are going in your life. The more details you add to your picture, the easier it will be for the group to understand how youre doing. You might add where you see Jesus in your word picture. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000, p.63.)
Listening Check
At the beginning of the group meeting, warn the members that, at the end, there will be a listening check for what they learned about each other during the meeting. At the end of the meeting, choose one person from the group to focus on at a time. The rest of the members take turns recalling information they learned about the person during the meeting. Ideally, everyone in the group should contribute at least one thing. After most of the group has spoken, move the focus to another person. Continue until everyone has had her turn in the spotlight. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000, p.12-13.)
Family Table
Give these instructions: Draw a picture of your family table. Place yourself at the head of the table. Arrange the rest of your family around the table with the ones you feel closest to sitting closest to you and the ones you are less close to sitting farther away. Then, explain the picture to the group to the level you feel comfortable.
Play Actionary
Like Charades, one person acts out a word or phrase that pertains to his life. For instance, he could act out born in Pennsylvania or studying math or whatever else he would like to tell. For more guidance, provide categories: favorite book, movie, food, place; hobby, interest, travel goal, etc.
Guessing Game
Everyone writes on a slip of paper three things about themselves that no one in the group knows. Gather the papers and mix them up. One person reads one at a time and the group tries to guess who it is.
The more openness, honesty, and vulnerability the leader shows the group in responding to the questions, the more likely the group members will be to share their true feelings. Emphasize the importance of listening and discovering new things about each other. The leader must model good listening skills and insist that the members follow his example: focus intently on each speaker, maintain consistent eye contact, and respond appropriately. (From: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000.)

Using magazines provided, cut out pictures (words, too) that describe the following six areas and paste them on a paper:
Life can be brutal so take time to encourage each other. Affirm the things that are commendable, likeable, praiseworthy, or strengths. Tell what you see God doing in each others lives, where they have grown and changed, and the gifts God is developing in them. Tell each other how they have made a difference in your life and in the group.
Have everyone in turn affirm one person. Then, focus on the next person until everyone has affirmed each group member.
Share strengths you see in each member using the fruits of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23.

(Questions from: Talking the Walk by Dave Bartlett & Bill Muir. Zondervan, 2000.)
Ball Of Paper
Make a giant ball of newspaper by wrapping newspaper around a core but in between each layer place a piece of candy with a written question wrapped around it. When it comes time for icebreakers, pass around this already made ball of paper and have each person take a layer off. They have to answer the question and then they can eat the candy.
Balloon Questions
Pass one balloon around the circle with a felt pen. Each person writes a question on the balloon. The question can be about what theyd like to know about the other group members. Or, it can be something they wish someone would ask them. Then, pass the balloon around the circle and each person chooses three of the questions on the balloon to answer.
Spin the Bottle
One person draws a question out of a bag of questions and spins the bottle. Then, they ask the question to the person to whom the bottle points. The questions can be about the Scripture passage or a subject of the leaders choice.
You earn trust by being there when someone needs you. All participants must be willing to earn each others trust by being there for each other in these exercises. If not, the experience will be damaging.
Electric Fence
Set up an obstacle to represent a fence using rope or twine about waist high. Instruct the group that they have just escaped from prison and must get over the electric fence without getting shocked. It is the responsibility of the group to get all members of their group over the obstacle. They may not go under.
Trust Circle
Eight people stand in a close circle. One person stands in the center of the circle and crosses his arms over his chest with hands on opposite shoulders. Keeping his body stiff, not bending at the waist, he leans toward the circle and is passed from one person to another.
Group Sit
Eight or more people stand in circle with hands on the waist of person in front of them, elbows at 90-degree angle. At the signal, everyone sits on knees of the person behind them all at the same time.
Back to Back
Partners lock arms back to back and try to stand up. Try it in fours.
Human Knot
Have a small group form a circle. Every member of the circle grabs a hand of two different people who are not next to them. Once everyones hands are intertwined, the group tries to get into one big circle without letting go of the persons whose hands they originally grabbed.
Rank Order
Divide into teams of 8-10. Have each team rank itself in order according to a topic (for example: age, birth date, height, etc). All teams rank according to the same topic. The team to finish first wins.
Wizards, Giants, Elves
A variation of rock, paper, scissors, the game needs plenty of running room. The playing area is a large rectangular shape with a centerline and home lines at either end. Divide the group into two teams and announce a time limit for the game (45 minutes). Each team chooses a home side, goes into a huddle there, and decides whether to be Elves, Wizards, or Giants for the first round. Throughout the game, each teams goal is to stay on the home side. Then, the two teams face each other at the centerline, each team standing in a line shoulder to shoulder. At a signal, each team acts out their choice: Elves bend over with their hands on their knees, Wizards stretch their arms out in front as if casting a spell, and Giants stand tall with their arms above their heads. The losing team turns and runs back to its own home line before the winning team members tag them. All who are tagged before they cross their home line must join the other team. Elves chase Wizards, Wizards chase Giants, and Giants chase Elves. Now, the teams (with their new members or less members) huddle and decide their choice for the next round. Play continues until time is up. The side with the most people at the end of the time wins.
Ha-Ha Game
Everyone lies down on their backs and places their head on the stomach of the person in front of them. The first person says Ha and each person adds a Ha until the last person. Try to make it to the end without laughing.
Magazine Movie
Divide group into teams and give each team a magazine picture. The teams have ten minutes to come up with a movie based on the picture and perform it for all.
Animal Noise
Write the name of an animal on 2-3 slips of paper. Write the name of a different animal on 2-3 more slips of paper. Continue until there is a paper for each group member. Distribute the papers so that no one reads it except the recipient. Have the group spread out. Everyone must keep their eyes closed, make their animal noise, and use the sound to locate the other people who are the same animal.
Human Trivial Pursuit
Divide the group into two teams with people who know each other well on the same team. Give everybody six small papers and a pen. On each paper, they write a fact about themselves having to do with the corresponding trivial pursuit category: Geography, History, Entertainment, Art &Literature, Science & Nature, Sports & Leisure. (For example: Geography I once tried to dig a hole to China in my backyard.) Each team collects its papers and mixes them up well. One team reads one or its papers aloud and the other team together tries to figure out who the fact is about. Teams alternate turns and get a point for every right answer.

Sommario: All'inizio degli anni 2000 Paul Crutzen proponeva di chiamare l'epoca attuale Antropocene e da allora sono stati prodotti fiumi di pubblicazioni e utilizzate montagne di denaro pubblico. In questo seminario viene esaminato il concetto di Antropocene nei suoi vari aspetti che vanno dal significato della parola alla sua rilevanza per la ricerca scientifica.

Abstract: Can we aim to make skilful monthly and seasonal forecasts? More generally, where is forecast predictability horizon? At 2 weeks or beyond?1970s' and 1980s' results led to the conclusion that there is a predictability limit for instantaneous and local forecasts at about 2 weeks, and that skilful monthly forecasts would always be a dream. To the contrary, the past two decades has seen centres like ECMWF extending the limit of skilful forecasts beyond 2 weeks, thanks to a combination of improved model components and algorithms used to estimate the initial and forecast states, the use of more and better observations, and the adoption of finer meshes. Atmospheric processes have been made more realistic, and ocean processes, aerosols and chemical species have been included in the forecast model. Algorithms have been upgraded to provide more accurate and reliable estimates of initial and forecast states, taking into account all possible sources of uncertainties.These advances have led to the extension of ensemble numerical weather predictions out to the sub-seasonal and the seasonal time ranges, and skilful forecasts are now issued weeks ahead. But so far, to our knowledge there has not been a systematic and consistent investigation of where is the forecast skill horizon, looking at a range of variables, areas, and fields averaged over different 4-dimensional (4D) space-time volumes. In this talk, the "Forecast Skill Horizon" (FiSH) framework is introduced, and the FiSH length is computed for instantaneous and local forecasts, and for forecasts averaged over increasingly coarse 4D space-time volumes. Results will allow us to estimate where is the forecast skill horizon today, and to discuss how we can aim to further extend it.

Dec 15, 2009 7:05 PM by Ariel Wesler
The Santa Maria Town Center is seeing new life this holiday season. The mall has added 13 new retailers under its roof. A spokesperson for the mall says they've been looking to attract more local merchants to create a sense of community. With the down economy, national retailers have also been less likely to expand. New toy stores, pet stores, and a kids gym are just a few of the new shopping options. A lot of the new merchants are aimed at kids, who in turn bring mom and dad along. A new Regal 14 Cinemas will replace the Gottschalks. It's scheduled to open early 2011.
Watch KSBY News tonight at 5:00 and 6:00 for more information on what's new at the mall.

The Westword 2014 Food and Drink Bucket List: #25-16
What are the hundred things everyone should do in Colorado before they die? We posed this question to our writers and editors, and this week we'll be rolling out their answers across our blogs, with can't miss events/activities in music, the great outdoors, the arts and, of course, food.brownpalace.com
Check back on January 16 for the full list -- and in the meantime, post your own suggestions for our next fifteen food and drink bucket list items in the comments section below.
See also: The Westword 2014 Arts and Culture Bucket List: #25-16
25. Have a spot of tea at the Brown Palace -- or a cigar at Churchill Bar.
The lobby of the venerable Brown Palace is one of the most stunning spaces in town -- and the perfect setting for a spot of tea...or maybe a cocktail or two. After that civilized ceremony, retire to Churchill Bar next door for a cigar.
24. Sip free samples on the Golden Brewery tour.
Adolph Coors built his first brewery in Golden in 1873. The company has gone through many changes since then -- it's now known as Miller Coors -- but the tour at the world's largest single-site brewery remains a Colorado tradition. The self-paced, thirty-minute tour takes you through the malting, brewing and packaging processes, on through the "fresh beer room," where visitors can sip a cold sample, and on to the tasting room for more free samples -- and the time to buy fresh-off-the-line beer.
23. Eat a turkey leg at Taste of Colorado.Brandon Marshall
The Taste of Colorado got its start as the Festival of Mountain and Plain, introduced in 1893 as an economic booster after the Silver Crash. Revived three decades ago as the Taste of Colorado, the festival has become an end-of-summer rite. And although there's a fine-dining area, roasted corn and giant turkey legs remain the crowd favorites.

(The ridiculously fly videos for "So Many Details" and "Say That" only enhance the impression.) This is the best melancholy disco album I've heard in a long time, and now it's streaming online in full. Listen to it at Pitchfork.
Anything In Return is out 1/22 on Carpark.

By Tom Chiarella
Danny Clinch
You can't get close enough to Springsteen. You can't ask him a question he hasn't been asked a thousand times. So I never have. But three times I've stood close enough to Springsteen to call him whatever name I wanted, each meeting a kind of dumb luck. Though there was plenty I wanted to say to him, all three times Bruce spoke to me.
In 1978, in the Rochester War Memorial arena, I nudged my way to the stage, the way the young and the skinny can. I was watching for security when a sweat-soaked twist of curly hair and smile reached over the edge of the stage to take a guitar from a roadie. It was him, and he shouted right at me as he knelt, sounding for all the world like a leprechaun: "It's a fine night, just a fine night. You know?"
I knew how old I was, which is to say younger than he. But all I could think was: He's a kid. And I thought, My God, he's been at it so long. He had "Rosalita" and Born to Run and the covers of Time and Newsweek under his belt by that point, and he was touring for Darkness on the Edge of Town. I remember thinking: I gotta get to work. What I didn't think was: Bruce spoke to me.
It just didn't surprise me. Onstage, Springsteen speaks to you all the time. Right in your ear. It has always felt to me like he's standing right in front of all of us, barking into the megaphone of his choosing.
Thirty-four years later, this is the central covenant of the Wrecking Ball tour, the entire performance: I will speak to you. We will sing.
Albany. I face a massive preshow populous ringing the arena, jammed into $300 jeans or duded up in shitty T-shirts and scrappy ball hats, layered in midsummer tans. Not many are here for Wrecking Ball, that I can tell. Some are just collecting ticket stubs, picking up a T-shirt, laying claim to "Brilliant Disguise" or "Spirit in the Night," each trapped in their very own year of the Springsteen Chinese calendar.
"I'm here for his old stuff," one guy tells me.
His wife pipes in, "Not 'Born in the U.S.A.,' though. That's my bathroom break."
"I like that one," the husband says. He starts to sing it. As do the people in line around him.
"You were born in Lebanon, that's why," his wife says, punching his arm.
"Born in the U.S.A.!" he wails.
People get one another going. A woman shows me where Nils Lofgren once signed her hip. In Cleveland, in an upscale cocktail bar, where bankers surely brought baskets full of death to their hometown over the decade just past, a woman shows me a picture of a coconut, which she claims fell from a tree at the house Springsteen owns in Florida. In each city I see the same guy selling the chance to pose next to a large poster that reads SPRINGSTEEN FOR PRESIDENT.
Inside, the hunger for the old numbers, so prevalent in the sugary cocktail twilight surrounding the venues, doesn't faze Springsteen. He seems to play old songs because he likes them, because of what they do for people, because he can walk people through Wrecking Ball before he gets to them. He concedes that he's a rich guitar player who doesn't need help. He lays out that he wrote these songs because there was "no discernible sense of anger" among the people of America. He hints at the obvious sarcasm of "We Take Care of Our Own" (sarcasm that the Democratic National Committee may or may not have understood when it blasted the salty tongue-in-cheeker as soon as President Obama finished his convention speech in September). Each night, the crowd hangs on through the new material. Bruce queries their anger. He turns to his band, new members and old, temporary and permanent, to drive the songs to the pitch of ire he demands.
Bruce Springsteen could connect to an empty canyon. He alienates no one. Not the young, who missed what he once was; not the hardcore; not the dismissive. He can motivate, shake up, urge, give respite. He preens on the stage, he ranges. He squeals a little in his zeal, in a little bit of James Brown.
The roots of a tent revival aren't masked. Such is the calling of a soul man, emergent when needed. And he is needed now. Springsteen anything but old while under his own spell is a boot-stamping preacher, reminding people to "hold tight to your anger," "find the bastards and shoot 'em on sight," to keep "trudging through the dark in a world gone wrong," to see that "sometimes tomorrow comes soaked in treasure and blood." This is today; lines plucked straight from the new album. And in Albany, the crowd shouts out, with Springsteen leading the charge, "Death to My Hometown" the album's Irish boot-in-the-face screed about what bankers brought upon us all. They brought death to our hometown, boys. Death to our hometown. You watch this enough nights and you think: Yeah, they must be listening. They sing it. They smack the floor with their heels and, for a moment, they hear.
The second time Springsteen spoke to me was in Indianapolis in 2002, when I was old enough to know better. I hadn't seen him in more than ten years, and I spent the afternoon baking brownies laced with too much expensive weed. When we took the floor, my friends started passing out like the bunch of overly stoned dinks they were. Nothing all that wrong, just too high. But this was right after 9/11, and the cops, fearing dirty bombs of anthrax, blazed in when they saw us collapsing. The show was delayed. My entire group was whisked away on gurneys, whispering cover stories all the way to the makeshift clinic behind the stage, where we just kept telling the nurses: Oysters. It was oysters at the bar before the show.
Springsteen himself came around a corner, headed toward the stage, while I was in the hall talking to a cop. He'd heard about our emergency, of course. "Everybody all right in there?" he said. I pursed my cottonmouthed lips and gave him a nod. A cop answered that it was under control. He used the word: oysters. "We got good seats for you," Springsteen said. "They'll take you up."
I swear Springsteen kept mouthing the word oysters at us during the show, which terrified me because I was ginormously high. And again, I said nothing in return. I never told anyone in the group that he'd spoken to me at all.
I was talking to my lawyer the next morning. He advised me to lay off the dope. "You know, Bruce doesn't do drugs," he told me, which I already knew. Then I told the lawyer what he already knew: "Bruce is a lot smarter than most of us."
In Albany, I watch the show with an old friend, a guy I've known since I was a kid. This guy has tossed through some jobs these past few years: real estate, sales, bit work deliveries, repairs. Six months ago, he snagged a midlevel government job and he's held tight ever since. "Work," he says while we drink before the show. "You gotta love work." But times had been bad before this, he says. At one point, he took a paper route for extra money. He had to be up at 3:20 every morning to load his van. By the time he got home, his kids were getting up for breakfast.
There is a song on the album about a guy like him, a guy who takes what work he can get, to get his family by. "It's you," I say. "You're the hero of that song." And even though the moment falls sharp and awkward in the bar, I backhand him in the chest later, when Springsteen starts singing "Jack of All Trades." It starts gently, with the work one man is willing to do, knows how to do:
I'll mow your lawn, clean the leaves out your drain
I'll mend your roof, to keep out the rain
What a jerk. Me. I can't raise my eyes to meet my friend's, so I pretend to listen to Springsteen, who sings the song by himself, under a single spot. Why had I thought this song, sung with both resignation and resolve above an eerily plodding rhythm, would be any kind of comfort to my friend? Had I forgotten how private the realizations of Springsteen are? My friend says nothing. And then it happens: The song turns from the imagistic and voicey keenings of an out-of-work roofer to a simmering, confident anger that, earlier this very week, had seemed wholly out of kilter to me:
If I had me a gun, I'd find the bastards and shoot 'em on sight
I'm a jack of all trades, we'll be all right
The song finishes soon after. My friend gives away nothing, acts as if I'd never made the suggestion to listen close to the anger in this particular song. But then he nods his head, as if he doesn't like anything at all very much just then. "Fuckin' A," he says, which I take as proof that he heard the man: You're not alone.
The last time he speaks to me, I can't hear what Springsteen says. He is on his back, riding the fingertips of a dozen Buffalonians, maybe more, crowd-surfing sixty-two-year-old man above the floor in a hockey arena. I'm alone, but I'm in a throng. He seems a floating corpus coming straight at me, so I reach up with both hands, a beer in one. I'm touching him now. Then Bruce Springsteen knocks the beer from my hand, so it flips and falls right on top of my head. It feels good. It makes him laugh, and he shouts something to me.
He's misty in years, riding the hands of the unknown mass, floating across the all of us. On the big screen high above, the scene looks predictably like a crucifixion played out whilst riding the air. But there is no anger, no shred of fear. This is more than three quarters of the way through the evening's proceedings more than two hours gone, more than an hour to go. The man, the Boss, has done his level best, as always, to make the crowd feel what he feels a rollicking elation, a well-earned exhaustion, and a good bit of righteous anger. By then I remember everything I might sing now, after all this. Yeah, I'll burn it. I'll race it. I'll tear it down. I'll go looking for more. I'll wreck it all. Whatever Bruce says. Still.
Yes, he spoke to me. I couldn't hear at first. I held a hand to my ear say again? He says, "I owe you one." He floats off, but I can hear those very words. I will hold him to them. I always have.
Fenway Park in Boston, August 15. Springsteen played sixty songs over two nights, thirteen from the new record.

The past week or so, I have been in New York City shooting a couple of projects. One of my projects was a doozie… I was hired by the ad agency Tier 10 Marketing, under the creative direction of Scott Rodgers, to produce and film a new tv ad for Acura via the New York Acura Dealers Association. As some of you may know, I co-founded a video production company, 8112 Studios, a few years back and we have been very busy with a variety of projects.
The ad starred the amazing Mariano Rivera of the New York Yankees driving around the new Acura MDX. The underlying themes were strength, dependability, perseverance, and dedication. This was my first time using a process trailer and police escort, which was pretty wild to arrange and setup, as you can see. You use a trailer so you can film driving shots, but be able to mount the lighting and camera anywhere. Obviously it would be a hazard having a driver or actor driving the car around New York City with 12k watts of lighting and diffusion and camera mounted to it. The tow truck has a generator on board so we can power the gear on the fly. Thankfully New York City provides a free police escort with your film permit. You technically need to have a police escort if you are filming any production on the streets of New York and have anything video-related mounted to a moving vehicle.
As a producer on my own shoots, I've learned that painstaking planning and pre-production is crucial on big video shoots like this. In fact, the shoot happens 80% in the planning and actual filming is merely following through the motions. That's a lot different than with photo shoots, I have found. When we started out with video production, I put emphasis on the shoot day, not realizing that if I planned everything out beforehand, I would have a lot less to worry about since video productions have so many moving parts.
On a side note, Mariano Rivera is an incredible guy. Aside from being a baseball legend with incredible talent, he is really one of the most genuine and kind public figures I have ever met. Just being around him, you are inspired by his gentle warm nature. Seriously, could not say enough things about that guy. Despite blowing out his ACL a couple of weeks back, he powered through and helped us shoot a great ad.
I'll post the ad when it airs!

MWL: Kane County Snaps Kernels Streak
CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA The Kernels saw their four-game winning streak come to an end on Tuesday night with a 2-1 loss to the Kane County Cougars.
Starting pitching dominated for both teams in the early part of Tuesdays ballgame. Ethan Mildren struck out four for Cedar Rapids while allowing Kane County leadoff hitters to reach the base paths in each of the first three innings. For the second straight evening the Cougars tallied the first hit of the ballgame in the opening inning. Kane County centerfielder Jake Hannemann doubled down the right-field line with no outs and reached third base on a sacrifice bunt by teammate Carlos Penalver. Mildren would escape the inning unscathed on a pair of strikeouts. A strong defensive effort by the Kernels defense allowed them to escape the second inning. Kane Countys Jordan Hankins hit into a 5-4-3 double play led by third baseman Bryan Haar.
Cedar Rapids broke into the hitting column in the bottom of the second after a leadoff single into left-field by Mitch Garver and an infield hit by left fielder Ivory Thomas, but were unable to push a run across the plate.
Kane County threatened in the top of the fourth but was stopped by another Cedar Rapids twin-killing. Jacob Rodgers began the small rally on a one-out single that skipped off the glove of Kernels shortstop Engelb Vielma. Remillard would record his second hit of the game in the next at bat. Hankins then hit into his second double play of the game to end the scoring threat.
The Kernels retaliated in the bottom half of the fourth by scoring the games first run. Garver hit a one-out double and would then reach third base on a ball that got past Kane County catcher Remillard. Zach Larson then scorched a single into right field that would bring in Garver to give the Kernels a 1-0 lead.
Jake Hannemann responded for the Cougars in the top of the sixth inning with a leadoff triple that tallied his second extra base-hit of the game. He was brought in on a RBI groundout by Yasiel Balaguert to knot the score at 1-1. Kane County added two infield singles with two outs, but could not add a run.
Tyler Skulina made the start for Kane County and threw five innings while giving up four hits and one earned run. Nathan Dorris (3-1) entered in relief for the Cougars in the sixth inning and picked up the victory for Kane County.
Ethan Mildren was the starting pitcher for Cedar Rapids and he exited the game after six innings while giving up one earned run. Mildren also struck out four Cougar batters without giving up a walk.
Left-hander Brandon Bixler relieved Mildren to begin the seventh inning of action where the Cougars grabbed their first lead of the game and the series.
Lockhart led off the seventh with a walk and would later come around to score on a one-out bunt for a single by Hanneman to make the score 2-1.
Bixler (1-1) threw one inning of work while giving up one run on two hits in the loss and would be replaced by Alex Muren in the top of the eighth. Muren worked a scoreless eighth after the Kernels defense recorded their third double-play of the contest.
Zach Godley pitched in relief of Dorris in the bottom of the eighth while holding the 2-1 Cougar lead and striking out two Kernels.
Cedar Rapids began a rally in the bottom of the ninth but was unable to come back. Garver began the inning with his third hit of the evening while Larson would be walked immediately after. After receiving a visit by the coaching staff on the mound, Godley would strike out the next three batters for Kane County to secure the 2-1 victory.

I have just known the type 3528 led light but now it appears 2835, I want to know the difference betweent them. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Are you referring to http://www.lumex.com/de/products/detail/2835_package Those are SMD (surface mount devices). |
The feature is that it is 2.8mm x 3.5mm in size. The 2835 vs. 3528 may just be someones name for the same thing, but generally would refer to the width and length of the surface mount component with respect to the terminals on the ends -- these can be on the "short" ends or the "long" ends. As far as light output, efficiency, etc, nothing is spec'd. In general, larger LEDs will put out more light than smaller ones, but the amount varies with manufacturer, model, and color. |

Thanks attofarad, it is kind of you to give me so detailed information. I guess the 2835 is better than 3528,right? |
No, they are the same, each is 2.8mm x 3.5mm. Unless you have other specs to go by, such as lumens, watts, CRI, etc. |

Home Congregations About Us Bookstore Press Room Giving
Page Navigation
Sponsor: Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) Staff
Presenters: The Rev. Sofia Craethnenn and the Rev. Dr. Devorah Greenstein
Reported for UUA.org by KokHeong McNaughton, Reporter; Jone Johnson Lewis, Editor.
This workshop, which deals with issues of oppressions from more than one angle, was jointly presented by the Rev. Sofia Craethnenn, Program Coordinator for Racial and Ethnic Concerns, and the Rev. Dr. Devorah Greenstein, Accessibilities Program Associate. Both Craethnenn and Greenstein work for the office of IDBM (Identity-Based Ministries) of the UUA.
Through engaging workshop participants in discussion and dialogue, the presenters drew upon their collective experiences of what makes them feel whole. These include acceptance, understanding, being heard and listened to, not being put into categories and boxes, being included, not being marginalized, not having to leave a part of the self behind, and being in situations that foster authenticity.
On the other hands, workshop participants also shared experiences of what made them feel broken (less than whole), which included having to suppress an important part of themselves in order to be accepted, being misunderstood, being judged or misjudged, not being validated, not being listened to, being marginalized and being narrowly defined by others.
As an example of the complexity a "whole" person can be, Greenstein asked participants to name whatever comes to their minds when they think of the name "Helen Keller." Typical answers include "strength, courage, deaf and blind." In truth, the real Helen Keller enjoyed more than 80 years of a very active life as a reformer, a Socialist, a revolutionary, one of the founders of the American Civil Liberty Union, a member of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) and much, much, more.
Categorizing people and putting them into boxes, said Craethnenn, is about power. When we are put into boxes by others, we lose parts of ourselves. And when we put ourselves into boxes, we lose some of our power. Oppression is not just about biases, but is prejudice plus power. Anti-oppression educator Paul Kivel's power chart (see "Resources" below) neatly divides people into "the oppressors" and "the oppressed," those with "more power" and those with "less power," respectively. In truth, says Craethnenn, power is a gradient and because it is multi-dimensional, multi-layered and multi-faceted, it is more accurately represented as a web. We can be at different points on the web depending on the situations. And we can move around on the web at different times throughout our life. Drawing upon her many identities as a person of color, female, minister, bi-sexual, UUA staff member, Craethnenn explored this multi-dimensional web of power through each of those lenses.
When a person's disability is ignored, it can feel like a rejection as well as an empowerment at the same time. This presents a dichotomy similar to that of being welcoming towards people of color versus exoticism. In both cases, we strive to achieve a balance, knowing that we all make mistakes and not being afraid to try anyway.

Storage01 Department File Services
From ITwiki
Departmental File Services
The process for provisioning a departmental file service begins when a department submits a request for network storage space to be used for shared work product. Requests can be made at www.stevens.edu/helpdesk using request type Storage01 | Department Shared Drive | Create. Once approved, Information Technology creates file space on network storage for the requesting department, creates permission groups as needed, and assigns users to the permission groups. Then the designated departmental file service administrator creates the desired directory structure and assigns permission groups to control access. Information Technology manages permission groups and their membership according to the directives of the file service administrator. The administrator utilizes the permission groups to manage access to the data as appropriate for the department's needs.
Guidelines for creating your department drive
The first step in the process is for the requesting department to identify the departmental file service administrator. The administrator is responsible for managing access to the service and for interfacing with Information Technology when changes are needed. More than one administrator may be designated, but all matters pertaining to the file service should be directed to the file service administrator, who will liaison with Information Technology when necessary.
Once the administrator is assigned, Information Technology will create the service and create permission groups and assign Campus domain users to those groups based on information provided by the file service administrator. A common name prefix is used when creating permission groups so that a department's permission groups can be easily identified. For example, if a service is being created for Athletics, security group names might be prefixed with "pefs", for example pefsadministrator, pefsaquatics, pefslacrosse, pefsvolleyball, etc.. Users may belong to more than one permission group.
Once the permission groups have been created, the file service administrator can assign them to govern access to files and directories. File service administrators should be familiar with Windows file permissions, but if they are not, Information Technology will work with them to assist. However, Information Technology will not assume the role of file service administrator for a department. Managing file service access is not difficult as long as the permission structure is kept simple.
Only permission groups should be assigned to files and directories to control access. Individual user accounts should not, even if that means a permission group with a single user must be created. If there is a change in a user's job assignment, it is much easier to change their access if all access is governed through the use of permission groups.
Once the service is established, new groups and membership changes can be made as needed. The file service administrator can request permission group updates at www.stevens.edu/helpdesk using request type Storage01 | Department Shared Drive | Access Update. The turn-around time for Information Technology to update permission groups is usually just a matter of a few hours, and once everything is established, changes are usually limited to the start of a new semester or when there are staffing or program changes.
Departmental file services are designed to store files and documents that need to be shared with others. Every Stevens faculty, staff and student has individual network storage space, which is where users files should be kept that are not to be shared.

From our hospital ship, the Africa Mercy we provide surgeries for blindness, cleft lip, orthopaedics, childbirth injury, facial reconstruction, dental treatments and much more, truly transforming lives and communities.
The money raised from your Easter Breakfast could make such a difference. Just £40 could put a smile back on a child by helping to fund a cleft lip and palate operation. Not only will surgeons transform a child's face, but they could save the life of a baby who cannot feed properly.
There are many ways to become involved in this popular event, and we're looking to community groups to take part across the country - whether at senior living homes; school breakfast clubs and mother and toddler groups; churches, workplace canteens at fire, police, ambulance and coastguard stations; refectories at naval bases and universities; clubhouses at sailing, holiday and activity centres; as well as café outlets across the country!
