Thanks to the many many readers who forwarded me a link to this majestic bit of fabric. Were I a more crafty sort, that would be ALL OVER my house, my bod, and possibly my car. Definitely the dog, too. (Poor Logan). Because really, the only way to celebrate that much bad taste in one place is to absolutely revel in it. Hilarity is only more hilarious when applied with a trowel, no?
Speaking of trowel, the host of that thar blog, Crazy Aunt Purl, also wrote a book last year about being divorced, covered in cat hair, and shamelessly addicted to knitting. My kind of gal. Go on with your bad self, Ms. Purl. I dare you to knit yourself a buxom fireman.

A) Is sipjoning strike magical or physical damage. Should I take armor penetration or magic penetration runes? B) Pretty sure it does but need confirmation: Does it completely stack with sheen/triforce (I.E. Both the + damage and base damage from siphoning strike in the sheen calculation??) C) And last: Sheen damage buff is it magical or physical?
A) I would think magical, so you would want magic penetration runes. B)Yes it stacks 100% C)"+250 Mana +25 Ability Power UNIQUE Passive: 100% chance when an ability is used that your next physical attack deals 100% extra base damage. This effect has a 3 second cooldown." This would leave me to believe it's physical, same as with triforce, somebody can correct me if I am wrong though. As far as your runes go, even though siphoning strike is magical, I would rune for armor penetration since sheen/triforce(Again, this can change if I am wrong) are physical, armor penetration also effects your auto attack, magic penetration does not.
Since Nasus is a DPS champion, he benefits way more from armor pen then from magic pen. The sheen/triforce bonus is also physical. I also think that siphon deals magical damage, else the armor reduction of spirit fire would increase the dmg. And afaik it doesn't.

After three decades of chronic under-funding of community mental health services for individuals with severe mental illness, California voters approved Proposition 63 — the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) — in 2004. This landmark initiative increases funding for the community mental health system, and lays the groundwork for the eventual transformation of the mental health service delivery system from a "fail first" system, to one that promotes early intervention and recovery.
The overall purpose and intent of the MHSA is to expand system of care services to children, adults and older adults with a serious mental illness, with a focus on innovation, prevention and early intervention services.

The Nazis' dream of a world dominated by legions of Aryan 'supermen', forged in battle and absolutely loyal to Adolf Hitler, was epitomised by the Waffen-SS. Created as a supreme military elite, it grew to become Nazi Germany's 'second army', an immense force totalling almost one million men by the end of the War. An astonishing fact about the SS is that thousands of its members were not German. Men stepped forward from almost every nation in Europe, for many sometimes… (more)

Article ID: 218592 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q218592 On This PageSUMMARY This article describes how to perform a SQL Server
distributed query to retrieve data from an OLAP Services (or Analysis Services)
cube. With Microsoft SQL Server version 7.0, you can perform queries against
OLE DB providers. To do this, you can:
To query a local or a remote OLAP server database from SQL Server, you have to install the MSOLAP OLE DB provider on the computer that is running SQL Server. The MSOLAP OLE DB provider is installed when you install the OLAP client components from the SQL Server 7.0 CD. OPENROWSET and OPENQUERY exampleThe following Transact-SQL code example demonstrates how to set up and use distributed queries with an OLAP server with the OPENQUERY and the OpenRowset functions. You must change the data source names and catalog name as appropriate.
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB
provider 'MSOLAP' reported an error. [OLE/DB provider returned message: Column
name 'customer' is invalid. Only level or measure names can be specified.]
OLE DB provider 'MSOLAP' reported an error. [OLE/DB
provider returned message: Cannot open database 'foodmart'] [OLE/DB provider
returned message: OLAP server error: The operation requested failed due to
timeout.] Linked server examples with four-part namesThe Transact-SQL code example in this section demonstrates the use of a linked server with a four-part name to query a OLAP cube. In the code, the linked server named Olap_server was created in the previous example:
Microsoft recommends that you send an MDX statement through an OPENROWSET or an OPENQUERY function, as shown in the earlier examples. This method lets SQL Server send the command directly to the linked OLAP provider, without trying to parse it. The command can be MDX or the subset of SQL that the OLAP provider supports. You can use the rowset returned from the OPENQUERY function in other SQL operators. For basic MDX queries and GROUP BY queries that return a relatively small amount of data (like a screenful), the result set must always be created in less than 10 seconds, generally in 5 seconds, irrespective of the size of the cube. If queries take longer, you can build more aggregations by using the usage-based analysis wizard. Performance tipsHere are some performance tips:
REFERENCES For a detailed description of the sp_addlinkedserver stored procedure parameters, see SQL Server 7.0 Books
Online. For more details about setting up and using distributed queries, search on sp_addlinkedserver, "OPENQUERY", "OPENROWSET", and related topics, in SQL Server 7.0 Books Online. To learn more about OLAP technology and MDX syntax, see OLAP Services Books Online. For information about using security with OLAP Services, see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 242025

Review: Speck SeeThru
Svelte Protective iPhone Case Doubles as a Stand
Rating: 5/10 Recommended with reservations

Speck's SeeThru is about as svelte as a protective case can get. Its detachable base functions as a stand when you want to get horizontal, but after a couple of weeks sliding the bottom on and off, the little nubbins that snap the two pieces together wore down like Jell-O speed bumps. Then the rubber grips peeled off.

Ames, IA (Sports Network) - Freshman Melvin Ejim scored 19 points to lead the Iowa State Cyclones in an 81-59 win over Montana State in non-conference action at Hilton Coliseum.
Ejim became only the second player in school history to reach double figures in six straight games to start his career. All five starters registered double digits for Iowa State (6-0). Diante Garrett scored 17, Scott Christopherson added 16, and Jake Anderson and Jamie Vanderbeken finished with 10 apiece.
Bobby Howard led Montana State (5-2) with 13 points and eight rebounds. Erik Rush scored 12 on 5-of-10 shooting.
The first half featured a 15-4 run by Montana State and a 17-5 run by the Cyclones. Iowa State went to the locker room with a 33-29 halftime lead despite shooting only 34.2 percent from the field.
ISU opened the second half with a 22-6 spurt, which included nine points from Garrett. The Cyclones shot 56.7 percent from the field over the final 20 minutes as Montana State failed to keep pace.
The Cyclones' 44.1-percent shooting from the field marked their poorest shooting effort of the season. They were able to generate additional scoring chances with a season-high 12 steals.

Dance Tonight co-owner Jeremy Norris knows his students. "When it comes down to it, everyone really dances for one reason: to have fun," he states on his school?s website. Co-owner Emily Loyless and their staff of fellow NDCA-registered instructors share his sentiment. In addition to teaching salsa, west coast swing, and country dancing, their dance studio turns into a ballroom dance party on Friday nights where students practice moves from their lessons. Norris and company also schedule Zumba dance fitness classes, whose calorie burn far exceeds that of completing 100 Macarenas.
Absolute Ballroom's knowledgeable instructors specialize in a wide variety of dance styles, catering to terpsichorean newbies during 45-minute introductory classes. Absolute Ballroom's certified and trained teachers pride themselves on unearthing a student's missing right foot, believing that dancing can be taught to anyone, regardless of a lack of rhythm or a fevered insistence that the floor is made of lava. Dancers can learn the basic steps of several social dances under the watchful gaze of a private instructor, alternating between the wistful glides of the waltz or the elusive woodland rhythms of the foxtrot. Students can also master the over-the-shoulder saltation of swing, rumba's mellifluous hip movements, or how to properly chomp a rose for tango.
The Bijou's origins stretch back through American history, but it didn't become a theater until relatively recently: 1908. For nearly a century prior to its dramaturgical reinvention, the building was a high-class hotel that housed high-ranking military commanders, influential civic leaders, and even President Andrew Jackson for a spell in 1819. When General Ambrose Burnside took the town of Knoxville during the Civil War, the hotel was converted into a hospital, makeshift war room, and oil-wrestling arena for Generals William Sherman and Phil Sheridan. The latter portion of the 19th century showed the building more favor, and during the lavish 1870s another president—Rutherford B. Hayes—paid call, and delivered a speech from the hotel's balcony.
The early 1900s saw the hotel's biggest renovation to date when it was purchased and upgraded by the Auditorium Company. The newly rechristened Bijou Theatre opened to a sellout crowd, and was a major outlet for vaudeville from 1913 to 1926. Hard times began to pile up soon afterward, and the lapsed theater would have been demolished in 1975 were it not for its eleventh-hour listing on the National Historic Record. Since its most recent renovation in 2006, the stage has hosted pop stars and musical blockbusters.
At Aerial Space, workouts unfold in midair. Practitioners weave through suspended silks, flow through yoga poses supported by hammocks, or practice acrobatic moves on the static trapeze and lyra, a suspended hoop. Aerial Space's aerial circus-arts classes, offered privately and for groups of children and adults, instill equal parts grace, fitness, and newfound skill.
Jon Dee has been entertaining audiences with the mystical arts since the age of 14, when he owned his own magic shop and performed tricks at the tables of local restaurants. In his humorous and family-friendly show, Jon displays the power of the human mind as transfixed volunteers cluck like chickens or compete in an '80s-style dance competition. A veteran youth pastor, Jon hypnotizes volunteers in a relaxed, safe setting and also bookends shows with a positive message on the power of the mind. Like races to the moon, shows are scheduled at the Gatlinburg Space Needle anywhere from two to six times a week and also include light-hearted sprinklings of magic, ventriloquism, and comedy.

The year that a few friends and I started the Hundred Dollar Holiday program through our rural Methodist churches, several business-page columnists in the local papers leveled the G-word -- we were dour do-gooders, they said, bent on taking the joy out of Christmas. And, frankly, their charges sounded plausible enough. After all, we were asking our families, ...show moreour friends, and our church brethren to try and limit the amount of money they spend on the holiday to a hundred dollars -- to celebrate the holiday with a seventh or an eighth of the normal American materialism. There's no question that would mean fewer ''Pop guns! And bicycles! Roller skates! Drums! Checkerboards! Tricycles! Popcorn! And plums!'' Not to mention Playstations, Camcorders, Five Irons, and various Obsessions. Perhaps my heart was two sizes too small.So it was with some trepidation that I carefully reread my daughter's well-worn copy of the Seuss classic, neatly shelved withGreen Eggs and Ham, Horton Hears a Who,and all the other secular parables. There on the cover was the Grinch himself, red eyes gleaming malevolently as he plotted the sack of Whoville. He hated the noise of the kids with their toys, and he hated the feast of rare Who-roast-beast, and most of all he hated the singing. ''Why, for fifty-three years I've put up with it now! I MUST stop this Christmas from coming!...But HOW?'' Simple enough, of course. All he had to do was loot the town of its packages, tinsel, trees, food, even the logs in the fireplace. Even the crumbs for the mice disappeared back up the chimney.But of course it didn't work. That Christmas morning, listening from his aerie for the wailing from Whoville below, the Grinch heard instead the sound of singing. Christmas had come. ''It came without ribbons! It came without tags! It came without packages, boxes, or bags!'' After puzzling three hours til ...show less

Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions - Problem 6
To add and subtract rational expressions, or any kind of fraction, we need to have exactly the same denominator. In order to find a common denominator in these examples, we need to multiply one fraction by a clever form of one. It's always a good idea to factor the denominators to see if they have common factors. The least common denominator will make reducing easier later, but even if you use a different common denominator, you can still get the correct answer with some additional work. If the original problem was subtraction, you need to be very precise with how you distribute the negative. Combine like terms in your new numerator, factor if possible, and reduce if possible.

Middle Eastern Restaurants and Food in Philadelphia
Where to Go For the Best Brunch in Philly
Times of London restaurant critic Giles Coren was in Philadelphia this spring filming his TV show Million Dollar Critic for Canada's WNetwork. The show visited five Philadelphia restaurants in order for Coren to bestow one of them with his million dollar recommendation (because the review could be worth more than a million dollars in business).
Coren visited Vedge, Cheu Noodle Bar, Avenue Delicatessen, The Mildred (now closed) and Kanella. In the end, Coren heaped the most praise on Kanella, the Cypriot BYOB by Konstantinos Pistillides.
Kanella is the sort of place I wish I could review every week: a buzzing local taverna on a lively city corner, people of all ages and ethnicities sitting at outside tables, simply decorated inside, full of laughter, friends and family, and charming staff serving a cuisine rooted deeply in a foreign culture rather than just ripping it off, with a deadly serious chef at the helm.
Read the full review of Kanella on Huffington Post's Canadian edition.
Middle Eastern flavors have long been a rich vein mined by chefs working in any number of styles. And Middle Eastern restaurants — whether of the wheeled or brick-and-mortar variety — have been a staple on the Philly scene for decades. But while you might think there's nothing to this cuisine beyond chickpeas and falafel, here are six places that will prove you wrong.
An eagle-eyed tipster alerted us to a liquor license transfer placard in the former home of Village Belle at 757 S Front Street. The applicant name is Kanella South. Could this be a new restaurant from Konstantinos Pitsillides, the owner of Kanella at 10th and Spruce Streets? The new license application isn't in the system yet, so we reached out to Pitsillides but haven't heard back yet. Back in March, Pitsillides sent us a teasing email, "Kanella will buy a new bigger space.or maybe,they just did." At that time the chef did return any further messages for details.
A property search doesn't return any recent sales for the address though its value did just go up by a factor of eight.
But if the name is any proof, it looks like Queen Village will be noshing on Cypriot bites while looking out over the Mediterranean Delaware.

Once again, Seahawks face toughest opponent of all — their bodies
A roundup: Hasselbeck (ribs), linebacker Lofa Tatupu (hamstring), cornerback Josh Wilson (ankle) and tackle Sean Locklear (ankle) started the game but couldn't finish.
Seattle Times staff columnist
SAN FRANCISCO — On the final play of a calamitous, fret-generating game, Seahawks wide receiver Nate Burleson caught a pass in the middle of the field. He ran until San Francisco safety Michael Lewis and linebacker Patrick Willis had him cornered, and then, in atypical fashion for No. 81, Burleson covered up and fell to the ground to avoid a massive hit.
It was the smartest play of the Seahawks' achy afternoon.
After losing four more starters to injury Sunday, including centerpiece Matt Hasselbeck, the Seahawks didn't need Burleson to take a risk at the end. They were lucky to leave Candlestick Park without breaking the X-ray machine.
When they weren't chasing after 49ers running back Frank Gore, they were grabbing injured body parts. The 23-10 loss was disappointing enough, but it didn't even compare to the concern over injuries.
A roundup: Hasselbeck (ribs), linebacker Lofa Tatupu (hamstring), cornerback Josh Wilson (ankle) and tackle Sean Locklear (ankle) started the game but couldn't finish. Put them with the others who are hurting, and the Seahawks now have essentially 10 starters out with varying levels of pain. The number is 11 if you include guard Mike Wahle's ailment-induced retirement.
Just when you thought the great injury bug of '08 was buried, the present starts pining for the past.
Oh-eight, meet Uh-oh-nine?
Well, don't panic yet. But if your finger is resting atop that button, I can't blame you. The good news is that, from what we know right now, none of these injuries are season-threatening problems.
Seahawks coach Jim Mora did his best to quell any hysteria. He portrayed his team as "disappointed, not dejected." He talked about fixing the mistakes that allowed Gore to go all Barry Sanders on his defense. He found positives in his players' resolve to compete despite the injuries and repeatedly said the Seahawks won't make excuses about injuries.
"We can't let that be an excuse because nobody cares," Mora said. "Nobody cares. There's no asterisk next to today's loss that says we have a bunch of starters out."
No, the story of this game was Gore, who rushed for 207 yards, including 79- and 80-yard dashes for the 49ers' two touchdowns. A team shouldn't give up two long runs like that in a season, let alone a game.
San Francisco finished with 256 rushing yards, which was 190 more than what the Seahawks could muster. The game was won there, in the trenches, where physical play and precise execution matter most.
"San Fran brought their A-game, and we brought our F-game," Seahawks safety Deon Grant said.
F, as in fiasco.
The mistakes can be corrected. The core of this Seahawks team has always been diligent about improvement, and they've always progressed as the season advances. Except for last season, they've always responded after a tough early-season NFC West division loss. There's no doubt this team will get better.
Tougher question: Will they get healthy?
It's hard not to look at them and see a roster full of aging stars unable to avoid inevitable breakdowns. It's hard not to wonder whether their bodies can complement their willpower.
Hasselbeck's injury is a prime example. He wanted to score a touchdown so badly, maybe too badly, that he dove for the goal line. Willis popped him, and now the entire Hawks-loving community is holding its breath.
You can't keep Hasselbeck from going all out to try to help his team win. You can't keep Tatupu from wanting to fight off a hamstring injury to lead his defense. You can't keep Walter Jones healthy by changing the way he plays left tackle.
The only hope is that the injured Seahawks will heal and still be themselves as they strive for durability. In the meantime, the team's depth will be tested.
"If you strap it on, if you throw the helmet on with the bird on it, you're expected to perform," Mora said. "So we can't allow excuses to creep into our environment. We just can't allow it."
Later, Mora, in full motivational mode, ended his postgame remarks by saying, "We're going to be OK. We're going to be OK."
He looked up and grinned.
"Did I convince you?" Mora asked.
He gave an inspired effort. He dove at reassurance, a la Hasselbeck diving for the end zone.
And Mora didn't even strain his vocal chords. At least he came away from here unscathed.

Several of our cats have occasional URI's and usually recover pretty fast. But one of them can't seem to fight the virus and is deteriorating. We've been dealing with this for months and she is getting to the point where the congestion keeps her from wanting to eat and she is very thin.
I took her in again today, she was given subQ fluids, a long-acting antibio shot and anti-histamine pills. Of course the shot won't work against the virus, but is supposed to take care of any secondary problems. And the anti-histamines are supposed to clear her congestion so she'll start eating again. I've only been able to get her to eat by hovering over her, petting her and talking to her, but she is still not eating enough. She is 8, much too young to give up on. Has anyone here gone through something like this, and how were you able to help your kitty? |

Get a second vet to check her out; this just sounds awful. I wish you the best. |
This is the second vet. She still doesn't want to eat, so we've started syringe-feeding her. At least that will get some nutrition into her. She's also on Lysine, which she hates. |

I'm so sorry. You might question the vet closely as to why this isn't clearing up; holding you & your kitty in my thoughts & in my heart. |
Thanks, Sylvia. If there isn't any improvement by Friday when the meds and everything should have kicked in, we are going to do some additional tests. |

Friday, May 22
Busch Stadium
Attendance: None
St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Nick Stavinoha's two-run single in the first proved to be the difference, while Todd Wellemeyer allowed just four hits over six-plus innings to lead the Cardinals to a 5-0 shutout of the Royals in the opener of a three-game interleague series at Busch Stadium.
Khalil Greene had a two-run single for St. Louis, which was coming off a three-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs. Tyler Greene added a solo shot, while Brian Barden went 2-for-4 with a pair of runs scored.
Wellemeyer (4-4) walked three batters and fanned three to pick up the win. The righty improved his ERA to 5.19 on the year.
John Buck went 2-for-4 for Kansas City, which has dropped three straight contests.
Kyle Davies (2-3) was solid in six frames of work, giving up two runs on three hits with seven strikeouts and two walks to take the loss for the Royals, who had five hits in the tilt.
The Cardinals used a two-run single from Stavinoha in the first inning to jump out to an early lead. After Skip Schumaker flied out to lead off, Barden singled and Albert Pujols walked to set up a first and second. Chris Duncan then moved the runners up a base with a groundout to Davies. Stavinoha then singled to left.
Davies settled down in a big way and kept his team in the tilt. He retired 15 straight batters from the end of the first until Pujols singled to left in the sixth.
Kansas City couldn't muster any offense off Wellemeyer, though, until the sixth. A Coco Crisp walk was sandwiched between a Davies groundout and an Alberto Callaspo fly out. Mark Teahen then hit a ground-rule double to left to put runners on second and third, but Jose Guillen grounded out to end the threat.
The Royals put their first two men on base in the seventh, but failed to score again. Mike Jacobs walked and Buck singled to put runners on first and second. Wellemeyer was then replaced on the hill by Trever Miller, who got David DeJesus out on a sacrifice bunt before Jason Motte took over to retire the next two batters.
Tyler Greene made Kansas City pay in the home half of the frame by belting a two-out home run to center, giving St. Louis a three-run margin.
The Cardinals added a pair of insurance runs in the eighth. Schumaker singled, Barden doubled, and Pujols was intentionally walked to load the bases with no outs. Duncan fouled out before Kyle Farnsworth took over for Horacio Ramirez on the hill. Pinch-hitter Khalil Greene welcomed Farnsworth to the mound with a two-run single to left.
Kyle McClellan pitched a scoreless ninth to secure the victory.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission formed a group that will review recordkeeping and reporting provisions for certain swaps transaction data, the agency said in a statement.
The group, to be led by the director of the Division of Market Oversight, will recommend questions for public comment on topics such as consistency in compliance among market participants and compliance with swaps reporting rules under Part 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
The group will publish a request for public comment by March 15.
The CFTC is moving to revamp oversight of swap-market data after a member said the agency's current information wouldn't help detect a loss like JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM:US)'s London Whale trades.

JPMorgan Said to Quit Tianhe Chemicals IPO Amid Hiring Probe
JPMorgan Chase & Co. quit working on Tianhe Chemicals Group's planned $1 billion initial public offering in Hong Kong amid a U.S. probe into hiring practices, two people with knowledge of the matter said.
The U.S. bank stepped out as questions arose over Joyce Wei, a former employee, whose father is Tianhe Chemicals Chairman Qi Wei, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private. UBS AG (UBSN), which is also advising on the IPO, hired Wei toward the end of last year, two people with knowledge of the matter said.
U.S. authorities are examining whether JPMorgan hired people in Asia so that their relatives in government would steer business to the firm, people with knowledge with the investigations have said. The bank hasn't been accused of wrongdoing.
Representatives of JPMorgan and UBS declined to comment. Joyce Wei also declined to comment.
JPMorgan's withdrawal from Tianhe Chemical's IPO was reported by Reuters earlier yesterday.
Geithner Told McGraw U.S. Would Respond to Downgrade, S&P Says
Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told McGraw Hill Financial Inc. (MHFI:US) Chairman Harold W. McGraw III in an Aug. 8, 2011 phone call that Standard & Poor's downgrade of the U.S. debt would be met by a response and that the company would be held accountable, S&P said in a court filing.
McGraw said the call occurred after S&P was the only credit ratings company to downgrade the U.S. debt. The company claims the government sued in retaliation for the downgrade.
Government officials have said the downgrade was based on an error by S&P. The Justice Department last year accused S&P of lying about its ratings being free of conflicts of interest.
Thom Mrozek, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles, which brought the lawsuit, declined to comment on the filing.
Justice Department officials have previously said the lawsuit was unrelated to the downgrade.
The case is U.S. v. McGraw-Hill Cos., 13-cv-00779, U.S. District Court, Central District of California (Santa Ana).

Bonus Curbs Under Threat From EBA Plan, Lawmaker Tells Barnier
European Union rules to cap banker bonuses at twice fixed pay may be undermined by recommendations from the European Banking Authority that would create widespread waivers to the curbs, a European Parliament lawmaker said.
The EU assembly last year clinched a deal on rules curtailing the bonus culture that lawmakers blamed for fueling the 2008 financial crisis. At least three parliament members have vowed to fight to keep the EBA from weakening the rules.
Once a proposal is issued, lawmakers will have an objection period before it can become law.

One of the most enjoyable and artistically satisfying projects that I've been involved with this year so far has been as producer for the fantastic new CD from Jenni Watson. Jenni has re-worked some popular folk, classical and jazz melodies in her own unique way, and combined with some of her original compositions, created a really beautiful CD. She plays saxophones, clarinet, flute, violin, penny whistle, piano and sings!!! The CD is being launched at the Forge in Camden on 4 July - every ticket holder receives a free copy of this wonderful CD, which, if there's any justice in the world, will bring Jenni's talents to a much wider public. Here's a link to her website, with samples etc: http://www.jennifer-watson.co.uk
Reviews for PLAYING THE SAXOPHONE
My new book, PLAYING THE SAXOPHONE, http://www.astute-music.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=30_66&products_id=228is selling well, and getting some lovely reviews. I've copied a few of them here:
PLAYING THE SAXOPHONE: Selected reviews 2012/13
Gary Carpenter's "The Listening Project Symphony"
Every now and then, something really special and unique comes along - and this live broadcast that I was lucky enough to be part of last week by the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra on BBC Radio 4 was just that. Gary Carpenter (incredible composer, colleague at the RNCM where he teachs composition, and good friend) was commissioned by the BBC to write a 'symphony' to underscore some wonderful audio clips from BBC Radio 4's Listening Project, and the result was one of the most moving and engaging pieces I have ever had the pleasure to be part of. Gary wrote a beautiful part for me for the Soprano Saxophone within the orchestra - and the final concert is now available to hear on the BBC iplayer. I know there's always a lot competing for our attention at this time of year, but make time for this. Make a cuppa, sit in your favourite chair, and listen to this incredible piece of music. It's sublime, moving, uplifting...there just aren't enough adjectives. Bravo Gary!
SummerSchools 2013
Looking ahead to the summer, the news is that the Manchester and Harrogate Courses that I direct are full steam ahead for summer 2013 - a new venue for Harrogate tbc shortly. Sadly, the International Saxophone Summer School at Woldingham is no more! After many years of great support from Jonathan Myall Woodwind, for which I am hugely grateful, JM feels that it's time for a change, and for his company to focus on other areas of development, and we all wish them every success - they really have been amazing to work with over the last 13 years! At present I am concertrating my efforts on the Manchester and Harrogate courses, but I have a few plans up my sleeve that will be announced in the new year for new and exciting developments to replace the Woldingham Course. Watch this site for details as they emerge.
APOLLO SAXOPHONE QUARTET @ London Jazz Festival
Thanks to everyone who came to our sell-out concert at the Forge, Camden,on 17 Nov, as part of the London Jazz Festival. Our set comprised commissions from jazz composers Django Bates, Keith Tippett, Barbara thompson and Kenny Wheeler. Barbara and Kenny were able to be there to hear their pieces - thanks to them both for making time in their busy schedules to come and hear their wonderful music.
Our Listeners Club - blog interview with Rob Buckland
I was approached earlier this month by Howard Popeck, the Editor of OUR LISTENERS CLUB, a not-for-profit online web site/blog for "Music loving audiophiles". He asked me to give an in depth interview about my thoughts on music, recording and more, to be serialised on his site. The interview is live from today (30 Nov 2012) and a new page/question will be added each day from now on. Here's the link to this fascinating site http://842.r.mailjet.com/HREqmzkA/1U2aGk/h0P1iA/ourlistenersclub.com/tag/rob-buckland/ Have a look around - there are some great interviews and blogs on there!

Photos of Angelina Jolie, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, Zahara Jolie-Pitt in Venice As School She Funded in Afghanistan Opens
Angelina Heads Out With Four Kids as Her Afghanistan School For Girls Opens
Angelina Jolie spent her morning shooting The Tourist with Johnny Depp, but in the afternoon she met up off set with Shiloh, Maddox, Pax and Zahara. Angelina didn't bring her other mini me Vivienne out this time, but the twins have gotten their share of Venice adventure as well. While Angelina is stepping out in her chic black boots with girly Z, big brothers Pax and Maddox and tomboy Shi, the activist actress is also keeping up her philanthropy work. A school for girls she funded in Afghanistan opened last week, only a year and a half after her visit to the country as part of her work with the UN inspired her to donate.
For more photos of Angelina and the kids just read more.

Thank you to all of you who wrote the wonderful comments about Angelina and what a great mom, wife and humanitarian she is. So many people, the world over, know what a gracious, loving and generous woman Angelina is. It is a disgrace and a shame that those few who love to spread lies about her do so without a conscious twinge. Those who want to call her a "homewrecker" since they are Aniston fans know for a fact Angelina wrecked no one's home. Even Aniston herself said so. Yet, Aniston's neurotic 'fans" (I don't think Aniston even wants to acknowledge them as her fans) consistently tell lies about this beautiful good-hearted woman.
Angelina - may God continue blessing you so overwhelmingly that the liars will continue to be STUNNED at all the wonderful blessings that overtake you every day. May God continue to bless you and Brad with a love so strong NOTHING can break it. God's blessings be upon you, and Brad in ALL that you set your hands to do and may all the good you both do come rushing back to you both like the waves in the ocean, non-stop. God bless your children, every one of them with health, happiness,prosperity, long life, love and a strong unbreakable HOME. God bless Angelina's womb that she will give Brad even more beautiful babies. Bless Angelina when she goes out and God bless Angelina when she comes in...Angels surround her and make her way safe and happy and blessed always.

lol i agree with you #2o but i think some of these crazy aniston fanatics secretly obese over Angelina that's why they always flock to articles pertaining to brad and or angie, leave comments and attack brad and angie's fans as well.

It's just getting boring, same pictures, same stories, day after day. A lot of the
time they look just the same as the day before. Sean Penn has been in Haiti
since Jan. and is planning to stay until April helping out and we saw one little
story. He just didn't take his own crew with him but he should be given some
cudo's for it. I have nothing against Angelina or her family but I would like to
see pictures of the children with other kids, going to school, or something a
little on the normal side.

Angelina looks radiantly beautiful. beautiful inside and out. what a wonderful person. too bad not everyone can appreciate her beauty because of tabloid stories.
4 years
Angelina has started 5 major charities in the last 8 years. She has from all reports donated millions and millions of dollars to education and economic development projects in Asia, the United States and Africa. She has shown a spotlight on the international refugee crisis worldwide. She has devoted hours of her personal time to the troops gravely wounded in our frivolous foreign wars. She has built a family that includes three children that are, de facto rescued from the grinding poverty and/or degradation they certainly would have been subjected to if they weren't her babies. She has developed world class projects to combat poverty and health crises in the home countries of her children. In her spare time she loves up and partners one of the most dynamic men in the world, fully supporting his work, his art and his humanitarian efforts. She also supports and champions numerous friends and family members in their good works and accomplishments.

Thanks #10 you just demonstrated what a complete fool and idiot lacking any common sense #6 is. BRAVO. Bout time these troglodyte lying types are flayed. And #6 just to repeat, both Brad and Angelina have said time and time again that they take turns working, QT also said it and so have others who tell the truth unlike you. Brad is to begin filming Moneyball in June/July in the Bay area and Angelina will be home with the kids.

You know what.. if she is an addict then my hat is off to her.
That is damn impressive to have an addiction supposedly as large as Winehouse yet still be able to pull off working long hours with A list directors while traveling the world (all those airport searches) and the drug testing that the UNHCR does to its ambassadors before they go into field missions without ever getting caught or looking like she is dropping the ball on family time or work or her humanitarian causes. And how supportive of Brad and his family to cover for her. They must be aware of the addiction having been around her for so long. And being able to have three healthy children all while hooked and using.
That is seriously impressive.. for an addict.

2:31 you must truly lead a miserable bitter and pathetic life. To repeat a scurrilous complete lie that has no basis or foundation about someone you dislike for irrational illogical reasons exposes your bias and prejudice and lack of education. There exists no place for people like you except in the most exploitative tabloids and even that media genre rejects you and your attempt to lie on a woman who has caused you no harm. You are consumed with unreasonable hate toward someone you do not even know and your distorted visage must surely display it.

Wish I was able to travel like this family does, they are always together and happy. Why would anyone have a problem with that? Matt Damon and his family always travel to locations together as do other celebs. It is a way of life for celebs, they have to go where the work is. Angelina and Brad and the kids will be in Venice for 3 months or so then back to LA as that is where they usually live in Los Feliz. They plan so that when one parent is working the other is with the kids.
4 years
Well Lyllie, Brad isn't working because of her and the kids do travel too much. But either way, I don't think addicts can win mother of the year.
Have a great day!
4 years
Angelina works at most 3 months a year. She brings her kids to work with her. She is never away from her kids for months like some. The family mostly lives in LA and gets around mostly unseen for months at a time. The older kids go to school in LA and where ever a Lycee is located and are also homeschooled. The kids all except for the twins speak several languages and are extremely well mannered. Brad and Angelina should be praised for putting their family first, not their careers. They are both good parents.
4 years
Why is it people only complain when Angelina works? Whenever Brad works nobody says he's dragging the kids everywhere. Also except for 3-4 months in NYC, they spent most of the past two years in LA. Besides if the kids stayed in LA or France everybody would just say what a bad mother Angelina is for not having the kids with her.

The S5's driveline, including the seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and the Quattro all-wheel-drive system, remain untouched. MTM instead institutes a series of mild chassis tweaks. New coil springs lower the ride height by an inch, while the front brakes are replaced with 15-inch rotors. Our test car had four-piston calipers, but MTM has since adopted a new package that fits massive eight-piston calipers up front.
Cosmetically, MTM's S5 is fairly restrained. Apart from bold side stripes, a lowered ride height, and new exhaust tips, the only visual departure from the stock S5 Cabriolet are the 20-inch, nine-spoke forged aluminum wheels, which are wrapped in 265/30/20 Michelin Pilot Sport 2 rubber.
A Seamless Transition
The modifications are mild, perhaps, but it still takes both skill and finesse to implement them in a seamless fashion. MTM's execution is flawless; everything looks, feels, and functions as if it were engineered by Audi itself. Cars equipped with Audi's Drive Select controller, for instance, still retain their variable settings; MTM's 430 horsepower is only fully unleashed once the driver selects the sport setting.
Although it's a big jump from 333 to 430 horsepower, the tuned S5 doesn't feel as if there's 100 extra horsepower packed into the engine compartment. High-end power is improved, and the revised exhaust emits an impressive bark, but the car doesn't feel remarkably quicker right off the line. We'd love to see MTM work some magic on the dual clutch gearbox; tuning its initial launch response may improve upon our seat-of-the-pants sensation.
Mixing lowered springs, low-profile tires, and Michigan's notoriously bad roadways often yields a harsh ride and uncomfortable passengers, but we were pleasantly surprised by the S5's behavior over broken tarmac. Ride quality was firm yet compliant, but we did notice some additional cowl flex, which incites some additional rattles and squeaks within the cabin when the top is raised.

It arrived very quickly and my order was AWESOME! It was better than I expected it to be. The quality was amazing! It looks so good! Excellent paper, great print quality and even the envelopes that come free with this order are a wonderful quality. The entire presentation of the order was above and beyond. I was so pleased.

"Paper and Print were nice quality. The photo isn't photo quality (vivid), but satisfactory. Loved the options of text. I was able to word the card exactly like I wanted. Excellent product for the price. Also Delivery was next day without next day price!"

brand evolution

While people may generally stop looking at dating sites once they've found their life partner, the search for the perfect job never seems to end. Enter eHarmony. The dating site has announced that it's going to use its matchmaking prowess to foster professional connections, and more importantly, find you the right job.
The Elevated Careers by eHarmony service will launch in December and will work to match up potential employees with businesses. "The goal will be to help people get a job where they really belong," says the company's founder and CEO Neil Clark Warren, according to Marketwatch. Employees at the company have been working on the project for three years.
In a romantic relationship, eHarmony says there are 29 Dimensions of Compatibility, but it remains unclear what similar set of criteria the site will have for the employee/employer relationship. If companies can find better-suited employees, the theory goes, perhaps there will be less turnover, the key motivation behind the new business venture.
If the dating service can find nearly the same success in the job market as it has in the love department, it may be on to something. The brand says its services are responsible for 600,000 marriages since 2000, of which only 3.8 percent have divorced.Continue reading...

Now that Honda finally has begun to overcome its acute supply shortages — worst in the industry — from the aftermath of the Japanese earthquake, it's time for the brand to try to start selling vehicles again. And in a US auto market that increasingly will become squeezed between softening sales and rising inventories of small vehicles across the board, it's probably a smart idea that as Honda "returns" to the market, it returns to its roots.
In its just-launched, comprehensive new marketing campaign, Honda lays out the "Good Reasons" to buy a new Honda, highlighting the company's long tradition of earning top industry accolades and recognition for safety, reliability, exceptional resale value and other attributes. Honda's schtick has always been that it is a straightforward brand with sensible vehicles, not flashy ones, for practical people. It built its chops over the years for those advantages, as well as its fuel economy and quality levels, rather than for styling sizzle.
The TV, print and online campaign features a self-assured Patrick Warburton (of Family Guy and Seinfeld fame) espousing the "truth" about car buying and advertising in over-the-top discussions ranging from legal disclaimers to whether sex can help sell cars.Continue reading...

Visitors to New York's Times Square will find, as the old song goes, that love is all around. In honor of its 10th anniversary today, eHarmony, the fourth most popular Internet dating site in the U.S., is splashing its brand (and success stories: namely, the couples who met on its site) on a giant billboard and pedicabs.
The heart of its "Love Begins Here" campaign: a pair of spots directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Errol Morris. "What If?", above, features real couples who met on the website. Another, "If It's Love" (watch after the jump), features the Squeeze tune and the tagline, "You can dream about it, or you can go get it."Continue reading...

What goes around comes around: In the '90s, Conde Nast's Internet branch CondeNet shut down the thriving dating and personals service it ran through its Swoon website, ceding the lucrative space to Match, Nerve and eHarmony.
Now the company (facing a brutal round of closures, layoffs and cutbacks) has decided to try again, with trulymadlydating.com, aimed at matching women who read Glamour with GQ's male audience. Gawker's sleuths note the site appears aimed at the British market and is operated by The Dating Lab.
Conde Nast (my former employer, I need to note) moved quickly onto the Internet in the mid-90s, though it was slow to evolve online for a while thereafter. Swoon was their early attempt to take content from print magazines like Glamour, Self, and Mademoiselle and package it under new stand-alone web brands. Swoon, focused on relationship content, and Phys, which was about health and fitness, are long gone, but Conde Nast's approach of separate web brands continues with Style.com (fashion content from Vogue and W), Epicurious for food and Concierge for travel.Continue reading...

.- After a severe car accident last month that killed a religious sister and injured U.S. Ambassador to Malta Doug Kmiec in California, the third passenger – Msgr. John Sheridan who was in critical condition – has died at the age of 94.
On Aug. 25, Ambassador Kmiec, retired pastor of Our Lady of Malibu Msgr. John Sheridan, and Sister Mary Campbell were involved in a one car collision at Mulholland Highway and Malibu Canyon Road.
Sr. Mary Campbell, 74, died at the scene.
The Malibu Times reported that Msgr. Sheridan, who had been critical condition following the accident, died early in the morning on Sept. 17 from heart failure.
"We all are very saddened," OLM Parish Manager Peggy Thomas told the Malibu Times, which noted that there will be a prayer service at the parish this evening.
After surgeries at the UCLA Medical Center Trauma Center following the collision last month, Ambassador Kmiec was reported to be in good condition and improving.
California Highway Patrol Officer Leland Tang said Ambassador Kmiec was driving westbound on Mullholland on Aug. 25 when his 2009 Hyundai Accent crashed into a drainage ditch after veering off the road. Tang said that the cause of Kmiec losing control of the vehicle is unknown.
Authorities have said the accident remains under investigation and that dashboard control adjustment may have been a factor in the collision.
