Blue Note Jazz Festival Celebrates Its Third Year With Thirty Days Of Music
NEW YORK, April 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Blue Note Jazz Festival, New York City's largest jazz festival, will return in 2013 with a full month of performances, June 1 – 30, with over 120 performances at 9 venues throughout New York City in addition to Blue Note Jazz Club. Additional venues include Allen Room at Jazz at Lincoln Center, B.B. King Blues Club & Grill, Hester Street Fair, The Highline Ballroom, Lehman Performing Arts Center, Lucille's Bar & Grill at B.B. King Blues Club, SummerStage and Town Hall. Ticket information and a complete schedule of events are available on the official website, www.BlueNoteJazzFestival.com. Additional venues and performances will be added in the days leading up to the Festival launch.
"Jazz was born from a mix of genres and we wanted to pay tribute to that history by showcasing a diverse mix of musicians," said Steven Bensusan, President at Blue Note Entertainment Group. "This year, we're stretching the boundaries of The Blue Note Jazz Festival by making the festival 10 days longer, giving us a great opportunity to book a more diverse array of performances than ever before, including cross-over artists, eclectic orchestras and international luminaries, as well as some of the genre's true living legends."
This year's festival will highlight both the legendary masters and up-and-coming stars of jazz. Specific highlights include:
- Flamenco-inspired vocalist Buika at Town Hall, whose latest album, produced by Eli Wolf, comes out this year and who NPR named one of the world's "50 Great Voices"
- Dobro guitarist and American country legend Jerry Douglas, performing for three nights at Blue Note Jazz Club, who counts among his past collaborators Eric Clapton, Dolly Parton and Vince Gill, and who has toured extensively with Alison Krauss and Union Station
- English guitarist John McLaughlin , making his first club appearance in years, who rock legend Jeff Beck once referred to as "the best guitarist alive"
- GRAMMY-award winning Puerto Rican band leader and pianist Eddie Palmieri , who will be performing with his Salsa Orchestra at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill
- Joshua Redman Quartet, who will be performing with Brad Mehldau, Larry Grenadier and Brian Blade & Orchestra at Town Hall to support their May 2013 release, "Walking Shadows"
- Saxophonist Wayne Shorter's 80 th Birthday Celebration at Town Hall, featuring three bands - the Wayne Shorter Quartet, Esperanza Spalding Trio, Sound Prints: Dave Douglas and Joe Lovano Quintet - paying tribute to "jazz's greatest living composer" (according to The New York Times )
- McCoy Tyner & The Latin All Stars performing two shows at Blue Note Jazz Club, featuring Gerald Cannon, Francisco Mela, Gary Bartz, Conrad Herwig, Brian Lynch and Miguel Valdez
- Tommy Emmanuel performing one night only at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill, a household name in his native Australia, whose unique "finger style" of guitar playing (more akin to piano playing) led to a wide-ranging career playing with popular bands such as Air Supply and Men at Work, and who now, at age 57, performs 300 solo performances a year
In addition to these acts, other performers scheduled to participate in the 2013 Blue Note Jazz Festival include salsa great Poncho Sanchez; saxophonist David Sanborn ; international acts such as Gato Barbieri, Chucho Valdés, Sadao Watanabe ; ensemble acts such as Rebirth Brass Band, Harlem Gospel Choir and Dizzy Gillespie Big Band; vocalists Amel Larrieux, Susana Baca, Delbert McClinton and Buffy Sainte-Marie ; guitarist Ottmar Liebert ; pianists Bob James, Danilo Perez and Kenny Werner ; trumpeter Dave Douglas ; genre-bending jazz orchestra Bjorkestra; spoken-word artist, musician and star of the classic film "SLAM", Saul Williams ; and San Diego-based soul-and-funk super group The Greyboy Allstars featuring Houston Person, James Carter, and Gary Bartz.
To preface the festival, the Blue Note Jazz Festival will sponsor a series of free concerts, outdoor events and educational programs presented by nonprofit organizations JazzReach and JazzHouse Kids, both dedicated to teaching jazz programs to young audiences. JazzReach will present Blue Note Jazz Festival for Kids from May 29-May 31. About Blue Note The Blue Note Jazz Club has become a cultural institution in New York and one of the premier jazz clubs in the world. Jazz is undoubtedly America's music, and while the Blue Note strives to celebrate the music's great history, the club is a place where progression and innovation – the foundation of jazz - are encouraged and practiced on a nightly basis. Located at 131 W. 3rd St. between 6th Ave and McDougal St., in the heart of Greenwich Village, the Blue Note offers music every night at 8pm and 10:30pm.

Maintaining a Healthy Lifestyle in Korea
Ok, so this isn't really fully a TL;DR on Korean culture and might not be fully relevant to you, but some people might be interested in different food lifestyles in Korea. You can get by eating Korean food just fine. It's lovely and delicious, but you might be interested in trying a different lifestyle, for different dietary purposes, like our own. We've found Korean food to be a bit too…carb-heavy, and that lead to us getting a little softer than usual. We told you that we dropped carbs to lose weight, so here are more of the specifics on how we got by.
We mentioned two key phrases that got us by: Bap Baeh-Jusayo "No rice, please" and "Hwang-Jay Diet-uh" which is…you know, I'm not too sure what hwang-jae means. Diet-uh means diet, that much I know, but Hwang-jae? Not sure. I just learned that phrase and it worked perfectly well when we're at restaurants and trying to avoid carbs.
We also took a lot more responsibility in preparing our own food, primarily for the low carb purposes, but also because we're just trying to eat healthier ingredients as well. White sugar and white flour are great tasting, but not all too great for your body. So we started using different sugars like Xylotol, for example. We use a lot of flax seed, chia seeds, coconut flour and coconut oil, almond flour, protein powder, textured vegetable protein, and such. These products aren't easy to find in Korea, and when we do find some of them, they're RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. So we order lots of stuff online.
Also, yes, I know there's lots of debates about what ingredients are good or not. Some ingredients seem healthy, but then one blog will say that they're not healthy, and another blog will say something else. The point is, we're trying to avoid foods and ingredients that we know aren't all too great, you know? So much food is so processed, and you just don't know how good it is for you. Sure, some people might eat it and be healthy tanks. For us, though, we're feeling a lot healthier and more energized after taking more control over what we eat and what ingredients go into our foods.
We talked about our spinach smoothie, which is more of a lumpy, and it sounds gross, but we actually REALLY LIKE IT! When Martina was last in Canada, she went to an alternative food course, and learned some cool recipes, the spinach smoothie being one of them:
Healthy Green Breakfast Lumpy
1 whole organic apple chopped (if non-organic peel it first)
1 lemon chopped (peeled but not seeded)
1 large handful of spinach chopped
6 additional leaves of sturdy greens (ex: kale, collard greens)
1 heaping tsp of peeled fresh ginger
3 cups of cold water
1. Dump all of it into the blender and blend on maximum speed until no longer super chunky.
2. Drink it immediately or seal it in an airtight container for one day.
3. Feel like a better person because you drank down a bunch of healthy green slop
Another thing we've started doing is something that we heard about a lot before but were too hesitant to try. I think the English word for it is "exercise" or something like that. People go to these rooms called "gyms" and they lift and push heavy things, or they walk on the spot on machines that let them walk without going anywhere. It sounds silly, and we refused to do it for the vast majority of our married life, but over the past couple of months we've given in and tried it out. It's not that bad, you know? We feel like we're looking better than before, and our bodies are getting somewhat tighter, and we can see and feel muscles that we didn't know existed before. It's weird.
After the gym we make protein shakes:
Berry Soymilk Protein Shake (For One Person)
1 (200ml) juice-cartoon of chilled Yonsei Soymilk
1 scoop of unflavoured natural Whey Protien powder (Now Foods)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp raw cacoa powder
2 heaping tbsp berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or a mix is fine)
Additional Options:
1 tbsp of honey/sugar (if the smoothie is too dull tasting for you)
2-3 ice cubes to make it less thick
1 banana (very carby but makes it more delicious if you don't care about carbs)
1/4 cup of cool brewed coffee (adds your morning kick)
1. Put all the ingredients into a blender and stir. Let it sit for 1 minute for the chia seeds to expand.
2. Blend on maximum power! VROOM VROOM!
3. Drink it all. It's easier to drink it in one shot.
4. Yell at the person next to you "BRO YOU EVEN LIFT?!"
Some of you follow us on Twitter. If you don't, you should! We do cool things on Twitter, like last night when it was 3AM and we made coconut pancakes. We made a Vine video for it. Here's our recipe for it:
Low Carb Coconut Pancakes
1/2 cup coconut flour
3 tbsp coconut sugar Xylitol (or normal sugar)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
6 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup milk (or almond milk if you want)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Additional oil for the pan
1. In a large bowl, whisk together coconut flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and slowly add the melted butter.
3. Add the egg mixture to the coconut flour mixture and stir well to combine. Let it rest for 1 minute until the coconut flour absorbs the liquid.
4.Heat a large frying pan over medium high heat and brush with vegetable oil. Most important part: SMALL pancakes or they will fall apart when you flip them! I use about two big tablespoons of batter onto the frying pan and spread into a circle.
5. Cook until bottom is golden brown and top is set around the edges. Flip carefully and continue to cook until second side is golden brown. Remove from pan and keep warm in tin foil plate or on baking sheet in oven (170c).
6. Eat them mofos any time of day. It's better really late at night, when you feel like a crazy person for making pancakes at 3AM.
Ok, last recipe we're going to share, because this seems like a crazy ass long post about recipes, and I'm sure it's going to be hella sucky to read. This last recipe here is for pizzas we make on our own, and they're freaking delicious and we like them more than other pizzas we get. Yes, it could be because our standards of pizza have really degraded from being in Korea for so long, and good pizza is hard to come by here, but I'd like to not think that. This pizza, to us, is delicious, and healthy, so give it a shot!
Low Carb Pizza Crust
1/2 cup flax meal
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oregano or Italian spice mix
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
1. Mix everything but the eggs in a bowl.
2. Add the 2 eggs and stir until a dough forms. I find using my hands are a lot easier to use than a spoon or whisk.
3. Using parchment or a silicon pad on a cookie sheet, flatten the dough to the thickness you want. You can use a cookie roller but you need to grease it. I use my hands to just press and spread it thin.
4. Bake at 350 degree (F) oven for 12 minutes.
5. Remove from the oven, add pre-cooked* toppings, and then return to the oven. Use the grill setting until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown, 2-5 minutes.
6. Eat that pizza and look at the person next to you and be like "I KNOW RIGHT? THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN IT SHOULD BE!"
Side Notes:
*I cook chicken breast cubed with eggplant while the crust cooks. I also make homemade tomato sauce with garlic and I drain the excess liquid so the crust doesn't get soggy. In order of operation I do tomato sauce, shredded cheese, chicken and eggplant and crumbled feta cubes. After the pizza comes out I use the drained liquid and pour it onto since the crust is very crispy and dry.
Ok, that's it. It's a lot more information than we thought we'd be sharing about our lives and how we're trying to live healthier.

Howdy Martina and Simon!
I have a question relating to eating to eat in Korea. specifically, how easy would it be for someone with wheat and lactose sensitivities/allergies be able to find food or eat out?
Thank you Martina lol im on a diet and I need some healthy sweet stuff lol.. im not too fond about the spinach thingy im a picky child but ill try it….
By the way i wanted to ask What diets do they use in Korea and how obsessed they are about fitness and losing weight …
I would like to know what are those pouches of like medicine/juice that shown in some dramas that people use to keep the health or manage fertility issues, etc. Are they natural medicine? Are they expensive? Have you ever tried them?
Hey Martina, i wanted to ask where do you get your goji berries from? I really want to get my hands on some but haven't been able to find any place that has them.
Hello, I am planning on moving with my fiancee to Korea soon. He is a Korean citizen over there but I am a U.S citizen. We are not entirely sure yet if we are just visiting or if we will just end up staying there. I am currently finishing up my schooling to be a teacher. So I wont be working in Korea unless I have too. So I wont have to apply for a work visa or anything like that. My question is: how long can you stay in Korea on just your passport alone before you have to actually apply for a visa?
A future Korean Wife. -
Thank you so much for introducing me to the Healthy Green Lumpy! I always wanted to try out a green smoothie type of thing, but never got myself to do it. I always thought they probably tasted horribly gross.
I was so amazed to try this one and finding out that it does not taste green AT ALL! It tastes like a super yum lemon smoothie. It's also my first time using ginger and, unless you can handle it, don't put raw ginger in your mouth! :P Haha.
Thank you!
Just tried your green breakfast lumpy! It looked gross but was actually really refreshing. Thanks y'all! ^^
Hey guys,
since you were talking about eating and dieting I wanted to ask if you had any personal experience or knnow someone who tried the "One meal a day" diet? Heard it was kind of a big deal in Korea. -
Dear Simon and Martina,
Are there hotels in Korea? I know it seems like a stupid question but i've never heard of hotels in Korea. Like if I were to visit Korea, where would I stay?
I can't even…
What? -.-
are you trying to call me stupid or something?
gee sorry if i never seen them -.-
Can you post how you make your tomato sauce?
Thank you for the recipes! Where did you end up finding these kinds of recipes from?
Thanks for including recipes in your blog post! I can't wait to try out the pizza crust. My family loves to cook pizza on the barbeque, so I'm curious to see how this crust will do.
Do you guys have access to alternative foods like sunflower oil? My nephew is allergic to soy, so my family has swapped to a lot of alternatives for butter, vegetable oil, etc. because of his allergy. Sunflower oil seems to work well for cooking, though I'm unsure as to whether or not it makes the cooking healthier lol.
Have you noticed other differences besides your weight since you started this diet? (like clearer skin, etc)
My question: What do the average Korean think about Koreaboos? What do you think about Koreaboos and people who go like "OPPAR IS AN ANGEL. OPPAR DIDN'T MEAN IT"
Haha, Quinoa and it's hard to pronounce name. Keen-wah. I laughed when Martina said Kinona.
I have a question that's been bothering me ever since I started thinking about teaching English in South Korea. Even in America, I have trouble getting days off from work for non-Christian holidays (Being Jewish, I am forbidden to earn money on days like Passover, Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashannah, etc.) I have heard that South Korea is very tolerant toward other religions, but what about when it comes to taking days off from work? Also, do you know anything about the synagogue that was built in Seoul last year?

Where can I find coconut flour! Also I had no idea about the soy milk having so much sugar! IM changing today, thanks!
Good video and everything, but I was just like "bahahahaha Rob Ford comment"
This is really interesting, thank you for sharing all of the information.
I agree with you that I think different peoples bodies digest foods differently. Considering my heritage I actually digest rice better than I do other things, so when I was in Korea for my study abroad program I actually wound up losing a lot of weight. I think that also had to do with how much walking I was doing too, but I know the food helped as well. Less fried food and over-processed food as well.
I definitely want to try some of these recipes y'all posted, especially the pancakes and pizza crust.
Thank you both so much! -
Wow! First mention of Gluten/wheat free! I am a coeliac so this is a very important topic for me! PLEASE talk about how allergies are dealt with in restaurants and food labels. Would someone dairy or gluten free have a difficult time? All the bloggers talk about vegetarians but never allergy sufferers. Thanks :)
Hey Simon and Martina,
What do you think about this?:
Do you think this affects other SM groups as well? Honestly i'm really worried…is it true?
Laura from Amsterdam
Thanks for the video Simon and Martina!
Oh my gosh the rice thing >o< . I don't think me and my dad can go on a diet involving so little rice (or any carbs really), it's to the point that we joke around that the day we run out of rice in our house is the day the world is ending. I think my mom would be happy to get rid of all of that rice though. -
I heard that bullying is a serious problem in Korean schools, and I was just wondering what did you guys do to deal with that when you were still teaching there?
Dear Simon and Martina
I was wondering, if you haven't already, I'd you talk about Korea's trash slash recycling thing. I went to Korea a while ago and our uncle let us stay in an officetel, however, when we were taking out our trash, there were like a thousand bins and we didn't know where to put just regular trash in, so we put it in a bucket that said TRASH or something like that, but the. The security dude came out and was like no no, don't put your trash in there and stuff and I didn't understand the rest so he left and we cried because we didn't know what to do ( well, we didn't cry cry, well, my family didn't, I Didn't either). So our uncle just said he'll just take out when we leave so I don't understand it and I'm sad.
If you have touched on this topic, please direct me because I am so confused because my family wants us to go back there soon and I just don't know anymore T.T.-
They did a video on it a while ago! Like…a veeeeery long time ago haha. I think if you just look in the trash, you can see what goes where, but here you go :) http://www.eatyourkimchi.com/korean-recycling/
Oh man, this is a really interesting post, but I must admit I got a bit sidetracked once you mentioned chia seeds. Are the chia seeds that you eat a variation of those that are used for growing fantastic green hair on those clay molds? Ya know, CH-CH-CH-CHIA!
Hello Simon and Martina!
I just wanna ask, is Korean a hard language to learn? well, im 'tryna' learn Korean at der moment but its clearly that im failing. T^T do u have any ~NaStY~ tips or tricks to learning Korean? THANK U~

Reworking Tier list.
First off, Udyr is not a top tier jungle. As while he has speed and stun, he has no ranged slow like Shyvana and no jumps.
Morgana is not a top tier AP carry, her shield and stun help her get away but she has no mobility which is really important. AP Shaco is not nearly as strong as it used to be, especially with the 90 to 60 second nerf on JITB's. Not sure why he is teir 2. Also, Ahri is very much top teir as she has insane damage, mobility, and a taunt. No clue why Cho'Gath would be up their other than he is tanky. Xin Zhao jungle is extremely difficult and hard to make work on 3v3. Also, out of curiousity, what is your argument for why Cassiopea is a God Teir AP? I know Greedy Buddhist plays a good Cass but I've never seen Ahri loose to Cass. |
Whats the point of mobility if you can just stun-lock with her Q and R, plus her mobility is really not that slow compare to ahri movement speed. Shaco isn't t2 for being AP, he can play AP, read bold thanks. His role is jungle, his role is to gank and clear jungle, not because he is going to go AP. Plus shaco jungle lvl 2 gank is almost for sure instant first blood, unless the opponent plays it off real good and pops SS(summoner spell). Xin Zhao jungle is actually not even difficult it is plain easy. Just he can't do anything once he goes in team fight, he either goes in and comes out killing all, or dies going in. He is just too squishy, but his ganks are very strong. Ahri movement speed is really slow. She has nothing to escape until level 6. Her taunt isn't even that amazing. She is very squishy too. A jungle gank plus CC laner, automatic drop first blood and snowball. "Also, out of curiousity, what is your argument for why Cassiopea is a God Teir AP? I know Greedy Buddhist plays a good Cass but I've never seen Ahri loose to Cass." I would not know how he plays Cass, but Cass is top tier cause of her game changing ulti. She can almost pressure anybody out of lane. Ex. Singed. Her Q gives her movement speed and does damage overtime. W slows. E 0.5 CD if poisoned, and her OP ulti. Which stun locks them. I mean you must not have seen a lot of good cass players because there isn't. Cass is a difficult champion to play. I mean if you can prove me some sort of evidence that something is wrong on my tier list feel free. But you have so little explanation to why they shouldn't be there and you ciritize it with no reason. If you want to scrim and prove me that Cass doesn't deserve it, feel free to hit me up on LoL. Lets go to your guys' Tier list. Blitzcrank T2? No damage output? Can't hold lane against other variety of bruisers. I mean what kind of items do you plan to build with him? Ziggs deserve that high of a tier? One move to get away (W) and its not even that reliable, his early/mid game is horrid. If he gets ganked he is going to be useless. You must not ever seen an AP NUNU or an AP Janna or even an Amumu. I can rant and explain how your whole tier list is not very useful but don't have that sort of time. Just because you have time to reach #1 on 3v3 ranking doesn't prove that much. Just all the "Good" players aren't playing ATM. Your being a little pretentious about the whole thing. So that's it. |
1) Shyvana does have a ranged slow.
a) We role Shyvana with Wukong lane and always get firstblood (Whether it's against HaoZ, Sarrano, or anyone else). (Wukong has no early CC) 2) To avoid a gank from Udyr you simply back off, as if he cant hit you, you are fine. He would have to bust a flash to be able to land his stun on a good player. 3) Shaco is a decent jungle. I can agree to that. 4) Ahri is meant for bot lane. She doesn't need to be escaping if all she does if farm and power level to 6. Also she has flash in case a gank does occur. 5) I asked you about Cass as I was curious. I still think that she will be nuked down far to easily as placing her ult with CC and massive damage from 3 players flying at her is a little bit harder than just jumping away like Fizz or Ahri could do. But hell, add me to your list and we can try a game. 6) Someone who is good with blitzcrank will land grabs. Dual lane bot with Blitzcrank and you'll ensure the solo lane is denied very hard. Also blitz is incredibly tanky, has lots of CC, and does massive damage late game. He gets to initiate any fight he wants with his pull, and he can choose who to initiate it on. 7) I can see why NuNu would be good. An explanation on why Janna is good would be awesome. And lastly, Amumu is one of my favorite champs, and I love to troll around with him in 3's. The problem in 3's that there is less open space and more walls, meaning it is far more difficult to land a stun through the wall as the actual range of the stun is decreased. 8) The note on Ziggs was that with the lanes being so narrow, you can block Dragon or an entire lane with the land mines, which infact do a whole lot of damage. Ziggs can also hop walls with his jump, and has massive AoE damage. I think he may turn out to be top teir. And finally, you may claim the "good" players aren't playing ATM. But all we are saying is that we seem to be the first team to be consistently beating HaoZ and his team, whereas no one else on the ladder has been able to. HaoZ has net wins of 100 some and only 9 losses, 5 of which to us. We figure if we can help other teams get to the stage where they can beat HaoZ as he is now, they would be thankful. Obviously your tier list / strategies are not working if no one else is beating him, because he is the only "good player" atm. |
>Shyvana does have a ranged slow.

No offense but Sam has a list 100 times better then yours
I have a few issues with Sam's like he puts Ashe,sona, TF & soraka down it seems low they arent perfect but decent champs Sona is hax early/mid games to win ganks. And no way Try is top I do not agree with sam all the time but I will say he knows more then most of us about what champs are good at what. First of all your ranked record isn't that super great. Quote:
Nice job on #1, however, I think your list is highly misguided.
I think your team with Moro and Orby is stronger than mine, BUT, Riven tier 2, really? Scrim against me, give us Riven, watch your stronger team lose. |

Fowler not shaken by rough Sunday at Murifield Village
Rickie Fowler was unable to get on track Sunday and ended up tied for 52nd after a closing 84.June 03, 2012
PGA TOUR staffDUBLIN, Ohio (AP) -- On the first hole of Sunday's final round of the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide Insurance, Rickie Fowler poured in a 14-foot birdie putt.
The gallery -- a sizable portion of which was clad in neon-bright orange just like Fowler -- went crazy. The fans screamed his name and applauded madly as they stomped off to the second tee.
Marshals had to quiet the crowd down: It seemed that Fowler's playing competitor in the next-to-last group still had a par tap-in left.
That was the only time Tiger Woods was an afterthought all day.
Woods came storming back to shoot a 67 to win his fifth Memorial by two strokes over Andres Romero and Rory Sabbatini.
Fowler, with at least as many fans as Woods in the massive mob that followed every shot of the duo, sagged to a dismal 84.
Despite the pleadings of his resplendent fans, Fowler just couldn't get anything going.
"It was one of those days. I made a birdie on the first hole. I pulled (a shot) on 2 and just kind of got behind the 8 ball," he said. "If you're not hitting your numbers, especially coming down (the stretch) on Sunday, it's going to separate the men from the boys. Today I was just a little off."
Here's how bad it was for the 23-year-old Oklahoma State product, proudly dressed from head to toe in the school's bright orange: He had eight bogeys, three doubles, five pars and just two birdies.
The 84 -- his worst round on the PGA TOUR by five shots -- dropped him from sole possession of third at the start of the day to a tie for 52nd at the end. Two shots off the lead after that birdie on the first hole, he ended up 16 shots back of Woods.
He wasn't shaken by the four-hour death march of a round. Far from it.
"I'm going to have a lot of Sundays from now on," he said. I've had some bad ones, I've had some good ones and it's not going to be the last bad one."
Then he turned to a nearby barrier where kids were lined up three and four deep, many dressed like him in Puma hats and shirts with loud colors. He proceeded to sign autographs for almost 30 minutes after one of the most disappointing days of his young life.

Apparently it has, according to the latest reports from meteorologists tracking the storm system. The amount of rain expected is now thought to be far below what is needed to end the drought in the American West, especially California. I was hyped a little too early about how incredible El Nino would be for everyone, including of course my part of the state and my little garden in particular. I suppose there will be enough rain to rejuvenate our gardens to some extent, in the short term, but in the long run it's pretty meaningless. It will be interesting to see whether the government and big business care enough to address the problem before it's even later than too late. Ingrid |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've been hearing rumors of this as well. The thought is now that it will be a weak El Nino. This is very discouraging news. Rosefolly |
Here is a link that might be useful: NWS El Nino analysis
This post was edited by rosefolly on Sun, Jul 27, 14 at 20:42
In fact, according to my reading, a "weak" El Nino is likely to be continued drought. :-( Discouraging is putting it mildly. |
- Posted by mendocino_rose z8 N CA. (My Page) on Mon, Jul 28, 14 at 8:55
I was really hoping for the El Nino. I guess there might be a tiny chance that it is different farther north. I'm just barely maintaining my garden this summer. If it goes on I will definitely have to make changes. I can't spend every summer dragging hoses around this huge garden hand watering. |
Don't give up the ship. The weather does whatever it feels like at a moment's notice, flying in the face of predictions. Just this morning, we here along the coast in OC had some (slight) precipitation, which is extremely rare for July or August. The best thing to do with long-range predictions is to read them, roll your eyes, say "M'm-h'm, we'll see," and then turn to the comics page for more accurate information. |
So true, odinthor. When I see predictions of rain I always say I'll believe it when I can feel the raindrops on my head. There was a rare summer storm locally which neatly bypassed us and rained on surrounding communities. I was glad than anyone at all had rain this time of the year; every drop is precious. Ingrid |
I sure wish I could send you some of the rain we've been getting, but that wouldn't exactly be cost-effective... I hope that at least your dry summers mean that you don't have a problem with mosquitos? They got a late start this year after our colder-than-usual winter, but are now making up for lost time with a vengeance. And I completely agree with y'all about weather predictions. And forecasts that are more than 2 days out are extremely suspect. I hope you get some relief soon (without the mosquitos), |
- Posted by Kippy-the-Hippy 10 Sunset 24 (My Page) on Mon, Jul 28, 14 at 20:59
Thank you for reminding us about the downside of rain Virginia, probably skeeters and having to mow the lawn more than once every few weeks. I wish a water pipe line was in the works instead. |
No mosquitoes, I'm happy to say, but that's because there's no water for them to breed in. Almost no flies either, except very small ones that hang around for a few months in the summer when it cools off in the evening. That is the silver lining of the non-existent gray cloud which would in theory hold rainwater. Ingrid |
Well, hey- you've got the silver lining, can the clouds be far behind? I hope they aren't (far behind, that is), and if this El Nino doesn't bring as much rain as you need for long-term relief, I hope it at least ends the drought temporarily. And maybe the next El Nino will do more for your long-term prospects if this one doesn't... Fingers crossed, |
mmmm, we are getting lots of little dribbles which, to my mind, are worse than no rain at all. The skies briefly darken and a few drops are squeezed out (east anglia is semi-arid and gets the least rainfall of anywhere in the UK). The very top millimetre of the soil is briefly dampened while the poor stressed roots are torn between exploring deeper or being lured to the surface, only to cruelly fry. Having the sandiest soil in England, while I can leave potatoes in all year (the only crop which ever sees a hose in my garden), it is a trial of nerves.... I simply ignore the wilting drooping tomatoes, imagining the tiny crop (and chewy skins) but thermo-nuclear explosions on my tongue of concentrated essence of sunlight. |
Is worrying about it now going to do any good? |
- Posted by desertdance So CA Zone 9b (My Page) on Tue, Jul 29, 14 at 11:00
hoovb! Exactly! Eternal optimist here. I know we are in a drought, and many have it worse than us. We and our neighbors contracted to have our pot hole ridden private road paved, and guess what? It rained, and they couldn't pave. Project got delayed twice because of rain! And of course, rain a week ago and yesterday. But, only enough to turn the dust on the cars into a spotted mess. I worry because our soil is decomposed granite, and it drains so well, it does not stay wet. We are committed to 4" mulch, but we have so many grapevines and fruit trees, it's tough to keep the ground damp. Sigh. I should change my screen name to raindance! We should ALL change it to RainDance1 or 2 or 7001... Everyone in CA should! Suzi |
hoov is right, why worry about it now? Good advice to someone like me who is a constant worrier, which just brings down the people around me and doesn't change a darn thing. I'm working on it, work in progress..... Ingrid |

I was hoping for a strong El Nino to give us in Saskatchewan a relatively mild winter. The last two winters were brutal, starting around Halloween and lasting into early May. |
- Posted by mendocino_rose z8 N CA. (My Page) on Wed, Jul 30, 14 at 8:58
Thank you optimists for the good words. As a gardener I spend far too much time worrying about the future and not enough enjoying the present. |
- Posted by jacqueline3 9CA (My Page) on Thu, Jul 31, 14 at 12:57
In our part of the world, we normally get no rain whatsoever in the summer, so it does not feel so much like a "drought" now, just a normal summer. Come October, I will start worrying about it again - I hope a "weak El Nino" will at least bring a normal amount of rain between Oct and April, that is all I want at this point. Anything more will be a bonus. What I don't want is the bright sun and all blue rainless skies we had last winter Oct through the end of Jan! Jackie |
Slimy Okra, the reason that Canada and eastern United States had so much snow last year is that you folks were getting all our rain. The storms were coming in all right, they they hit a year-long persistent strong high pressure ridge off the coast of California. They could not get through and took a detour up your way, dumping that water as snow. I truly sorry you got our water, and I'm even sorrier we did not. Rosefolly |
Well, WE are thinking about it now -- not WORRYING, but considering it, when making plans -- because it does affect what we do, and where and what we can plant, or must remove. |

Get dirty, have fun and grow more food with great gardening tips from real-life gardeners.
By Joseph Lofthouse
Tags: landrace gardening, Joseph Lofthouse, Utah
Landrace vegetables are among the most beautiful foods that can be grown. My fall frosts are arriving in a few days, so I thought it would be appropriate to reflect upon the growing season and share photos of some of my favorite landrace crops.
Astronomy Domine sweet corn was my first landrace development project, and still holds a fond place in my heart. The beauty of the cobs amazes me every year. I can't wait to peek inside the cobs and see what beautiful colors and combinations of colors await my eager eyes. I love the nuances of taste and texture that are associated with the various colors and shapes of kernels. I picked the seed crop a few weeks ago. Our fall rains arrive about the time the corn starts getting dry, so I pick it for further drying under cover on the porch to prevent it from molding in the field.
My watermelon landrace development project has finally produced an abundant early harvest in the available growing season in spite of the adverse conditions. I have been working on this project for 4 years. It was an ongoing project before I became involved. Hundreds of varieties were planted and allowed to cross pollinate, most of them failed spectacularly in my garden and in the gardens of two collaborators in a similar climate to mine. Watermelons are so far out of their comfort zone in my garden that in one of the early years I harvested only 5 fruits from about 700 seeds that were planted. That is great odds to start localizing a species to a particular garden. I love the watermelon landrace! The insides are yellow, or pink, or crimson, or orange. Some fruits contain swirls of yellow and red. They are a delight to cut open. Each color brings with it an associated flavor and texture. I really like the yellow fleshed melons. I select each year for sweeter taste, better texture, and earlier harvest so the population is becoming better and better. This year I am awarding the crop the title of landrace. I have previously called it a proto-landrace because while it was a genetically diverse population, it was not well localized to my garden.
My soup bean landrace brings a lot of joy to people at the farmer's market. If I put a dish of them on the table, people will stand and run their fingers through them over and over seeking out unusual colors and patterns. They cook up into a hearty flavorful soup. Some of the types quickly disintegrate forming a thick broth. Others hold their shape well regardless of how long they are cooked. They make a pleasantly delightful soup.
Last spring I imported a hybrid bean clade into my garden. It consisted of the descendants of a natural cross between two different types of beans. It grew wildly in my garden producing bush beans, and pole beans, and semi-vining beans. Some were too long season for my garden. I harvested the crop last week saving for myself the short-season bush beans. The suitable beans will be added to my pre-existing bean landrace. The seeds from the plants that are unsuitable for my garden will be used for food, or shared with people who have different climates and opinions about what makes a great bean.
Landrace crops are some of the most beautiful and tasty crops that can be grown. That makes growing and eating them a joyful experience. This is part of the reason why I believe that landrace gardening is a path towards food security through common sense and traditional methods.
Next week's blog will also be a photo essay with harvest photos to demonstrate what might be expected if the seeds of hybrids are replanted.

More reviews by AgentMakeup007
This is just a regular lip gloss that looks promising in the packaging. If you're expecting the solid color you see in the tube you'll be highly dissapointed. I got this in the shade Plum Show and it looks like a gorgeous Raspberry tint in the tube. When applied, this is just a soft wash of rose pink on the lips with tons of sparkles! It is super glossy and I didn't find it to be thick or sticky in consistency, which is good.
It makes me look very youthful since I always tend to reach out for dark under toned colors for my lips so I really like it!
Just bought this in Walmart. The color I got is called Scandalous. Its an orange color with a glitter shine. Ok, so I put it on and its pretty much clear. It only has a very SLIGHT orange color to it but you cant really see it. I wouldn't have minded paying 6$ for it if it was the color it looks like it is... but its not. I love hard candy products, especially their eye shadows. Just was a complete miss this time. The packaging is a tube and I love that, it looks really cute but thats about all it does for me.
I just scored this product at Walmart for 6 bucks and am so excited about it as the color is amazing! I got the lipgloss color "man catcher" as it is a light pink color with finely ground glitter inside for an added shimmer. It looks gorgeous on the lips. The color is not subtle but not bold and the sparkle factor is amazing!! This product comes looking like a test tube with a wand and slanted sponge tip applicator. The name of this color "man catcher" seems like its going to serve its purpose as I feel so sexy wearing it. The texture is perfect and not sticky and it has a nice little scent to it. PUCKER UP!! LOVE IT!!
I got these in red stiletto and midnight stroll (purple). I tried the purple on and it looked terrible. It's more of a plumper but perhaps the red will look better.

The layout seems like there is information overload in the three columns you might want to trim it down. The main pic with the ruler and pencil is a bit confusing at first glance I thought it was a autocad/architecture firm. You might want to consider changing this to something more tailored to web design and dev. Just my two cents.

I like the design personally. The 3 columns works for me, but the center column has three different "clicky" images that go to lightboxes that cycle through the same three images, which annoys me... I think I'm getting to new content when it's just the same content over and over again. I'd change it to lightbox only the one you clicked, which yes does force you back to the page to see the other two lightboxed, but that's a better option then what it is currently.
And that stupid tweeter bird... it's just so lame. I hate the trend. I know everyone's doing it, and twitter is some kind of a fabulous thing, but I can't stand that fricking blue bird which ruins the color design and distracts the eye and just looks like a big fat blue booger that got flung onto the page. Sorry, went on a rant there didn't I
There's some other weird thing happening next to the bird in FF (some beige oval artifact) that I can't figure out.
Also, the "contact" link opens an empty email? Why? You have a contact form on the very same page. Stay consistent.

The judges who ruled today on debit-card swipe fees had a message for the U.S. senator whose legislation spurred a massive battle between Wall Street and the retail industry: Thanks for nothing.
In an unusual bit of pique, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit called Senator Richard Durbin's measure "poorly drafted" and subject to little debate when it was passed in 2010. The opinion, written by Judge David Tatel, reversed a lower court ruling and upheld the Federal Reserve Board's regulation implementing the fee limit.
"We think it worth emphasizing that Congress put the Board, the district court and us in a real bind," Tatel wrote. "Perhaps unsurprising given that the Durbin Amendment was crafted in conference committee at the eleventh hour, its language is confusing and its structure convoluted."
Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, fired back a few hours after the ruling in a statement that lambasted the opinion as "a giveaway to the nation's most powerful banks and a blow to consumers and small businesses across America."
The panel "astonishingly claimed that the swipe fee amendment was crafted in secret and at the last minute," the senator said. "If the court had taken the time to carefully read the law and its history they would have known the amendment was debated and approved on the Senate floor with a strong bipartisan majority months before enactment."
Retailers had long set their sights on cutting the costs they incur for taking plastic. Unlike with checks, banks charge fees, known as interchange, to process debit and credit card payments.
Dodd-Frank Amendment
Before Durbin inserted the cap in the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act, debit fees averaged 44 cents per transaction or about $16 billion a year. The amounts were set by Visa Inc. and MasterCard Inc., which own the payment networks and pass the money to the banks.
The Durbin amendment spurred one of Washington's largest lobbying battles, as retailers and the financial industry grappled over who would get to pocket the $16 billion.
On one side were Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Target Corp. and Home Depot Inc. aided by scores of small retailers. On the other were financial firms led by JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America (BAC:US) Corp., weakened by the furor over their bailouts during the 2008 financial crisis. Together, the banks and merchants deployed more than 500 lobbyists and spent about $30 million, people familiar with the campaign have said.
Fed Dismay
Like the appeals court, the Federal Reserve was not happy to be brought into the middle of what its leaders considered a business dispute, people familiar with the matter have said. Several Fed governors also considered the Durbin amendment vague and badly drafted, the people said.
In 2011 the Fed approved its swipe fee rule, allowing a cap of 21 cents, plus some additional payment to compensate for fraud losses. A group of merchants then sued to overturn the rule, arguing that the limit should be much lower and that the central bank didn't properly follow the law when it calculated what costs should be taken into account.
A lower court last July agreed with the retailers. The Fed appealed.
In today's opinion, Tatel and Senior Judges Harry Edwards and Stephen Williams reversed that decision and said the Fed's interpretation of the law was reasonable.
As for the case the retailers tried to make to the court, the decision said, "far from summiting the steep hill, the merchants have barely left basecamp."

The International House of Prayer (IHOP or IHOPKC) is an evangelical charismatic Pentecostal Christian missions organization based in Kansas City, Missouri, and the nearby suburb of Grandview that focuses on prayer, worship, and evangelism.[1]
It is best known for the prayer room which has run 24/7 with live worship teams since September 19, 1999, and subsequently broadcast on its website. Doctrinally, IHOPKC is evangelical, post-tribulational, and affirms historic premillennialism. IHOPKC places great importance on the practices of prayer, worship, fasting, and discipleship.
IHOPKC is based in Kansas City, Missouri. It runs a training facility which houses a bible school, music academy, media institute and missions school, collectively known as the International House of Prayer University (IHOPU) in nearby Grandview, Missouri.
The annual Onething conference has been hosted by IHOPKC since 2002 in the Kansas City Convention Center.
The International House of Prayer of Kansas City (IHOPKC) was founded by Mike Bickle. The organization began in a small building off of Grandview Road in Kansas City, Missouri, as a prayer room dedicated to worshiping Jesus night and day. Since that time, IHOPKC has grown and spread out over several different locations throughout south Kansas City and Grandview, Missouri. As of November 2010[update] the church had over 1,000 staff and a student body of another 1,000 individuals.[2]
IHOPKC is best known for its daily prayer meetings based on its "harp and bowl" worship model that are held 24 hours a day, seven days a week,[3] 365 days a year since September 19, 1999. While the prayer meeting is the primary ministry of IHOPKC, the missions organization has also established many different ministries that service its community. These prayer meetings, which are streamed live on the internet and through GOD TV,[4] alternate regularly between music and prayer through all hours of the day and night.[5]
IHOPKC staff regularly teach on themes that include prayer, worship, the Great Commandment, the Great Commission, eschatology, understanding God's spiritual purposes for Israel, spiritual gifts and other various evangelical themes.[2][4]
The International House of Prayer University is an unaccredited Bible college with campuses at Grandview, Missouri. The president of the school is Allen Hood, who is on the International House of Prayer's leadership team. As of 2010, there were 1,000 full-time students enrolled. The educational process centers on prayer.[2]
The program has included ministry training programs, a music academy, a media school, missionary training, and others.[6]
The program was founded in 2000 as the Forerunner School of Prayer. In 2008 the institution was renamed International House of Prayer University after the school was certified by the state to receive international students.[7][better source needed]
In 2010 the school invested $6 million to renovate part of a strip mall in Grandview for use as a new campus.[8]
The IHOPKC Project consists of plans to build a facility on 125 acres of land adjacent to Highway 71 that once belonged to Harry Truman. They expect to spend $150 million on the project.[4] There are several apartment complexes in Grandview, Missouri, inhabited primarily by members of IHOPKC.[2]
In late 2009 and early 2010, reports of revival at the IHOPKC center led to increased attendance at their prayer services and conferences.[9] This facility was built in 2012
The 2013 documentary film God Loves Uganda suggests that North American evangelicals in general, and IHOPKC specifically, were responsible for Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Bill. IHOPKC has stated that it was not connected to the bill and is opposed to the legislation.[10]
When IHOPKC moved to a new location in an old shopping center in the Terrace Lake neighborhood of Kansas City in 2002, many members[who?] of the local community voiced suspicions about the ministry. IHOPKC attempted to allay their fears in a series of community meetings.[11][12][13] IHOPKC has been credited, however, with helping the local economy by bringing large numbers of visitors to the area.[14]
The Southern Poverty Law Center has criticized IHOPKC because of the extent to which their teachings emphasize Jesus making war on his enemies at the Second Coming.[15]
On September 14, 2010, IHOP (International House of Pancakes) announced that they were suing the International House of Prayer for trademark dilution and infringement.[16] The lawsuit was dropped on December 21, 2010, with the dispute resolved out of court.[17]
On October 30, 2012, former IHOPKC intern Bethany Deaton was found dead in an apparent suicide.[18] Days later, IHOPU student Micah Moore came forward to Grandview police and was subsequently charged with Bethany Deaton's murder.[19] In statements to police, Moore stated that he was part of a religious group with Bethany and her husband, Tyler Deaton.[20] Moore said that group leader and IHOPU graduate Tyler Deaton ordered his wife's murder to prevent her from revealing sexual assaults within the group.[21] While IHOPKC materials and website listed Tyler Deaton as a division coordinator for IHOPKC friendship groups until five days after Bethany's death, IHOPKC officials said that Tyler Deaton's group was not connected to IHOPKC.[22][23][24] Melanie Morgan, one of Moore's lawyers, said in early December 2012: "The facts suggest Bethany Deaton's death was an unfortunate suicide and Micah Moore had nothing to do with that suicide".[25]
IHOPKC has repeatedly been accused of being a cult by Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry and other apologetics groups.[26]
