Page I
Being a congenital skeptic, I had expected
to go the way of other fantasy shows exploring the issue of faith. It began by establishing the central antagonism between its central characters, the rationalist doctor Jack Shephard (the de facto leader -- get it?) and the faith-filled, ironically named John Locke (the namesake of the famous
British empiricist
whose philosophical inbred progeny was one
B. F. Skinner
). In regaining the use of his legs after crashing on the island, Locke was granted something of his own revelation. By way of this objective correlative, Locke and the audience had a inkling that there was something more to the island than Jack's skepticism allowed. Throw in a smoke monster, people coming back from the dead and time travel and any reasonable person starts sympathizing with Nochimson's vaginal heroism. The lure is there to wrap the antagonism up in the same generic package as all the aforementioned failed fantasy programs. Affirm faith by killing it with literalism (compare the deracinated horror of
Stephen King
's CGI-infested movie-adpatation of his
The Shining
to the dread of
Stanley Kubrick
Seems to me that faith is both an opening and a closing. The believer must remain open to mysterious possibilities that defy the normative limits given by our best explanatory models while digging his heels in the sand and claiming his irrationally derived belief is the truth. Therefore, faith requires mystery. If the implausible is made normative, as it is so often in fantasy, there is no faith involved. Of course, the recipient (viewer, reader) must maintain a level of faith by way of the classic suspension of disbelief. Similarly, lest the believer become a mere ideologue, he must live with uncertainity, a nagging suspicion that he might be wrong (i.e., not all that different from the fantasy genre's suspension requirement).

Twin Peaks
veers into the conventions of illusionism, which pay homage to the rationalist's faith in a phallic force and properly directed will, the series loses its sense of the benign subconscious and the affirming power of femininity. In the later episodes, the seeker regresses into a stereotypical hero. Proper reason directing Cooper's will becomes the heroic focus of the action against the typical perverse will and reason of the villain. The traditional conquest of Earle -- not the desire to see -- becomes the desire of the series. --
Martha P. Nochimson
David Lynch: Wild at Heart in Hollywood
, p. 93
The only thing Columbus discovered was that he was lost! --
Wyndom Earle
Since Ron Moore and colleagues sank my
, the only show I've cared about is
. As the former demonstrated, TV is determined by its own law of entropy, where any show gets worse in direct proportion to the length of time it's on times the structural quality (plot, characters, diegesis, etc.) that the creators initially developed. Clearly,
went on for about 2 years longer than the initial fund of creativity allowed. Its keg was all but tapped by the beginning of the third season. Given its
tenuous beginning
, Moore probably thought his show wouldn't make it much past the mini-series, hoping that he'd at least have one of those cult-celebrated shows that could've been. On the other side of the coin, TV executives don't much care about quality, but about how long they can wring some advertising dollars out of the shows they're broadcasting. As such, they are creatures of chaos, encouraging the steady dissolution of the creative order; they are, in a word, demonic. It's the nature of the beast that creators have to get in bed with these incubi to give birth to a TV show. This Faustian dialectic requires as much blind faith from the creators as it does money being thrown about by investors. Little wonder, then, why so many SF-fantasy shows are predisposed to defending faith over reason. As articles of faith in the face of overwhelming odds, they came into being as the result of big, dumb chance.
A classic example is
, which burned out after the third season and whose endings justified every ludicrous theory the conspiracist Agent Mulder came up with. After a few years of this, the skepticism of Agent Scully's ratiocinations came across as implausible, or just plain dumb. Faith in something that's demonstratively true isn't really faith; it's empirical knowledge. Contrary to
some interpretations
didn't really analyze the role of faith, so much as side-step it by making the supernatural natural. You'd be one stupid hobbit to doubt magic in Middle-Earth. The hero in an absurdist universe can either fight it like Agent 6 did in
The Prisoner
, or just embrace it like Maxwell Smart in
Get Smart
. On the former journey -- Kafkaesque in its structure -- lies madness, cancellation and no end to the story, much like what waits for the rationalist in the real world; on the latter, you get a better chance at a few more seasons, but, like a business going public and expanding, the product begins to feel like a cheap imitation (just look at
David Lynch
Mark Frost
built the possibility for endless expansion into
Twin Peaks
with the mystery of Laura Palmer's murder -- what Lynch has called "the golden goose." They intended to keep it ongoing indefinitely while exploring the epiphenomenal mysteries arising from the central investigation. ABC felt that endless mystery would tax the faith of viewers, and "asked" the creators to wrap up the Laura storyline in the second season. The end of that mystery wasn't all that killed the show's élan: both Frost and Lynch went away to work on other projects, turning the reins over to a bunch of cheap Lynch clones, resulting in a whole lot of James and Lucy. It was with the return of Frost that the show began to regain some sense of direction, but more along the lines of the classic good versus evil struggle to which Nochimson alludes in the above quote. Agent Cooper now had a Moriarty, Wyndom Earle, a damsel in distress, Annie, and there was a
white lodge
to go along with the
black one
-- tropes that a Jungian once called archetypes, but are now known as clichés. Nochimson is herself a Jungian feminist who sees Cooper as a hero-seeker, a protagonist who leaves himself open to questions, tapping into the universal unconscious, rather than one who is out to conquer the Other. Openness, you see, is the province of universal femininty -- think the woman's classic coital role ('classic' should here be read as another synonym for 'cliché', or 'stereotype'). Reason is phallic, controlling, penetrating, and thusly the province of masculinity.
Despite the reductionistic men-are-from-Mars-women-from-Venus rhetoric, Nochimson's book gets it right that Lynch isn't much of an us-versus-them sort of narrator. As becomes increasingly evident from
Blue Velvet
Inland Empire
, all of his protagonists possess a
Hermann Hesse
-duality that drives the narrative more than some external battle with another. However, Cooper is his purest hero, only shown to face his dark side when Lynch returned for season 2's finale. By listening to his dreams and going with his occult intuition, Cooper might be considered a man of faith, albeit one who doesn't put all his eggs in one basket. (These eggs aren't of the
kind, though.) But he was until the final episode, and against Nochimson's reading, always in control. He asked the right questions and proffered the best hypotheses again and again. I'd say, given the preternatural realm of
Twin Peaks
, Cooper belongs philosophically with his cohort Agent Mulder to
Noam Chomsky
's brand of rationalism. ("Mulder" even pops up in
Twin Peaks
as an FBI investigator in drag, an agent of scientifico-rationalism mocking the identity politics inherent in Nochimson's account.)
Against the bottom-feeding positivism of behaviorism that was dominant back in the 50s,
Chomsky countered
that unobservable mental models (the a priori, or given) were necessary to understand linguistic behavior. Scientific discovery, like language learning, is guided by models, where one has an initial theory that undergoes modification as experience dictates (I speak loosely here, so see these entries on
Universal Grammar
if you're curious). If the data is consistent with the theoretical model, no change is necessary; it is, for all intents and purposes, rational knowledge. Mulder and Cooper's seemingly outlandish theories might not work in our world, but they tended to be confirmed by (were consistent with their experiences in) their own diegeses. Their faith is more analogous to
David Hume
believing that one billiard ball will move when struck by another, i.e., it always had in the past (as far as he knew).

Noir Do Wells 2: Desperate (1947)

Anthony Mann's
I tend to view film noirs as fantasies dealing with realistic themes. As such, they don't have to be versimilitudinous representations of the way people would act in a realworld parallel (for the narratives are rarely plausible), but be symbollically suggestive of our moral situation. If
Robert Mitchum
Burt Lancaster
falls in love to the point of a sick obsession within 2 minutes of screen time, that's okay; it just adds to the dreamy quality of the film, while still conveying something real. What doesn't work within the oneiric narrative is
's hero, Steve (
Steve Brodie
), and villain, Walt (
Raymond Burr
), consistently acting in such a dunderheaded fashion that their actions convey nothing but ill-thought out plot mechanics.
On the eve of his and Anne's (
Audrey Long
) 6-month anniversary, independent trucker Steve gets a job offer from an old friend, Walt. Tried and true Steve doesn't find out until he gets to the loading dock that the job is transporting stolen merchandise. He, of course, refuses, only to be persuaded at gun point. The cops show up for a shootout, allowing Steve to escape in his truck after punching out the hood who's currently in the driver's seat. Walt's brother, Al (
Larry Nunn
), isn't so lucky, getting knocked out and arrested. Now on the lam, Steve commits the first in a long line of convenient errors which get him where the scenarists need him to be. He leaves the hood's gun on his lap with the hood unconscious in the passenger seat. The crook wakes up, grabs the gun and forces Steve to take him to Walt's hideout. Although pure nonsense, Mann and his cinematographer,
George Diskant
, at least aesthetically justify these contrivances with the film's noirish set piece, where Walt and his cronies beat the tar out of Steve in a masterful chiaroscuro rendering:

The most wonderful thing about life seems to be that we hardly tap our potential for self-destruction.
John Cheever
Over the past few weeks, I've been attending some of the features being shown at the
American Cinematheque's 11th Annual Film Noir Festival
. My next few blog entries will be about what I saw. First up, two films by two of my favorite directors that center on the basic stupidity of their protagonists to get all the pieces to fit into their respective jury-rigged plots.
Fritz Lang's
Beyond a Reasonable Doubt
Independent journalist Tom Garrett (a well-lubricated
Dana Andrews
) goes along with a harebrained scheme to prove the injustice of the death penalty as devised by his future father-in-law, the liberal newspaper editor Austin Spencer (
Sidney Blackmer
). More gonzo than
Hunter S. Thompson
, Tom will plant enough evidence to get himself convicted for an unsolved, brutal murder. Since women are prone to hysteria, the two men decide it best not to tell Tom's fiance, Susan Spencer (
Joan Fontaine
, the missing link between
Grace Kelly
). It's not difficult to see where this one's going: on the way to the courthouse when the jury is to hand in its verdict, Austin gets into a fatal car crash, with all the exculpatory photographic evidence burning up (cars were real fire hazards in those days).

It's such a relief when a publisher walks away from a lost cause.
For the last few years, Microsoft has been trying to force Kinect motion controls into games where they most definitely do not belong. Games aimed at the hardcore crowd that demand precise controls simply fail under the inherent limitations of the Kinect, but we had to put up with countless experiments as Microsoft and its partners shoved frustrating games out the door. It was always the darkest moment of E3, when Microsoft would play a prerecorded reel of Kinect games so it could hide the massive lag that naturally resulted when trying to play these games without a cloak of deception.
I couldn't contain my smile when the Microsoft conference wrapped up and I realized that no such pain was inflicted on the public this year.
Only a handful of games took advantage of the Kinect in any meaningful way. Three of these are expected and smart entries in the motion-enabled catalog. Dance Central 3 should be as entertaining as its predecessors because it doesn't require precision. Rather than having you control your onscreen avatar, the game merely monitors how close your movements match those of the virtual dancer, and judges you thusly. In Wreckateer--clearly influenced by Angry Birds--exact control isn't important since it's all about the chaotic freedom of knocking down towers with cannonballs. Fable: Journey is all about the Kinect, but it's tightly guided on-rails navigation should alleviate problems that arise in more taxing experiences.
It's the other two games on Microsoft's stage that I found most interesting. EA Sports has implemented Kinect controls in two of its biggest franchises: FIFA and Madden. And though my immediate fear was that we'd have to perform a slide tackle or diving catch in our living rooms, it quickly became apparent that such nonsense wouldn't be necessary. The camera--the defining part of the Kinect--wasn't going to be used at all for these games. Instead, the Kinect has been relegated to an expensive microphone. EA proudly touted the voice commands. Now, you can change your formations on the fly in FIFA '13 or shout a curse at a referee when he blows a call. Madden '13 has the same sort of functionality, letting you call an audible at the line of scrimmage. Yeah, it's all marketing hype. It's simple enough to change plays by just tapping a button like we've been doing for years, but it's a quirky gimmick for anyone who wants a spice of originality in their iterative yearly sequels.
What's most interesting is that this seems to be a growing trend for Microsoft. Mass Effect 3 let you command your squadmates with your voice. In a recent Skyrim patch, Bethesda added the ability to perform dragon shouts by shouting yourself. It's as if they've finally acknowledged that trying to cram motion controls into these experiences is a serious detriment to enjoyment. So instead of abandoning the technology completely, they're tossing in a few voice-enabled features so they can advertise "Better With Kinect!" on the box and keep their camera in people's minds.
The Kinect is a device that's clearly intended for a casual audience, and there's nothing wrong with that. Seeing imprecise motion controls forced into games was a bad idea that only created resentment toward this technology. Microsoft is taking a positive step by recognizing the strengths, weaknesses, and appeal of this device so it doesn't wind up in places it doesn't belong. At least I hope that's the case. The industry certainly doesn't need more games like Rise of Nightmares and Diabolical Pitch that highlight the worst elements of this uneven technology.

Each week we take a close look at a cool comic book collectible. That means we take it out of the packaging. While I originally had a different item planned for this week, discovering some new Batman LEGO sets on the shelves preempted the original plan.
There's been a few different Batman LEGO sets. (You can filter the search to "articles" and type 'LEGO Batman' or just click HERE). The first of the newer sets we'll look at this time is LEGO Batman: Man-Bat Attack.
This isn't a huge set. It contains 184 pieces and is a pretty easy build. It does include yet another vehicle for Batman but the Batcopter is cool.
What is even cooler is the fact that this set includes Nightwing and Man-Bat. Man-Bat, or Kirk Langstrum, has straddled the line between bad and being misunderstood. But in this set, he's bad. He's attacking. So it's up to the former Dynamic Duo to stop him.
The Batcopter is a little different from past LEGO helicopters we've seen in other sets. It does have a Batman feel to it. Batman fits fairly easily in the cockpit. You might have to adjust his cape a little but he will fit inside with it on. There is only room for one so that means Nightwing has to find his own transport (which he did, sort of). There's also a hook on a rope you can raise or lower should Batman need to do any towing or if he tries to use it to capture Man-Bat.
What does Nightwing use for transportation? He has a weird jetpack-type thing. It's branded with his red logo but it's a little clumsy of a build. It's a little on the big size for a jetpack or glider. There appears to be hooks on the top that move but it's not clear what they're meant for. Perhaps they're suppose to fire out the grappling hooks for whatever reason he might have.
Then there's Man-Bat. You have to admit he's cute-looking. The only problem with him is he looks better with his arms up. But that makes him look a little weird too. Arms down looks more awkward because of his wings.
Apparently Man-Bat is a fan of dynamite.
Each LEGO figure comes with two different faces so you can switch up their mood depending on what is going on in your LEGO adventures.
The set retails for about $20. Considering you get three LEGO figures plus the Batcopter, it's a good deal. If we're being realistic, Nightwing is the draw here. Man-Bat is cool too if you're a fan of the character. Chances are, you already have a LEGO Batman figure.
There are more LEGO Batman sets so you can expect to see more featured here soon, in future installments. For now, we'll leave you with this.
You're welcome?

As promised in yesterdays post, here is day 2 of my travels to Paris. I spent most of the day with audrey as she showed me around her neighborhood Les Marais. It's a quaint little area with lots of cafes and beautiful boutique shops. We spent the day visiting the yummiest of bakeries and macaron shops (Laudurèe being one of them). The outfit I wore this day actually reminded me of a macaron. The pastel mint color is and pastels in general are something I've always been drawn to. Maybe it's due to my love for sweets? Whatever the reason is, I am always drawn to it.
The skirt I'm wearing is from Philosophy and I was suppose to wear this outfit for their New York Fashion Show but I ended up getting into a car crash on our way to the show with Aimee. I chose this outfit for the show because I thought it would be perfect for Paris. It was feminine, flowy, pastel and romantic. All of the things I think of when I think of Paris.
Another thing I think of and have been completely inspired by in Paris is the architecture. No matter what side of town you are in, there is so much history at every corner. I just love the fact that even the simplest of buildings have different shades of color and flowers everywhere.

National Adoption Month Comes to a Close
November 30, 2011 by Ellen Kahn, Director of the Children, Youth & Families Program
We have been honored to participate in many National Adoption Month celebrations this month, including the event this morning at HRC where we were joined by Bryan Samuels, Commissioner of the Administration for Children, Youth and Families (HHS); and featured a new video about our All Children—All Families initiative. I'm sure many of you heard and read stories throughout November about the need to find permanent families for the 100,000+ children and youth in foster care, and I hope you noticed that many LGBT-headed families were featured not only by HRC and other LGBT organizations, but by mainstream child welfare organizations. This signifies the progress we continue to make in changing hearts, minds and attitudes toward LGBT parents, and in opening more doors to qualified LGBT foster and adoptive parents.
The truth is that we are a valuable resource – we are needed for children and youth who might otherwise never know what it feels like to have a home, a family, a permanent link to one adult – or two, who will be there for them for the long haul. If you have thought about being a mentor, a foster parent, or an adoptive parent, please take a step forward. Even if you're not sure or don't feel completely ready, that's OK. You will learn a lot in the process of attending orientation and classes (required for any prospective foster/adoptive parent), and agency staff and other parents will help you figure out what you are capable of, and what you have to offer to a child. We have a list of welcoming agencies and we can help you identify other resources that might be helpful to you in the process.
Although National Adoption Month concludes today, the need to engage foster and adoptive parents continues every day – there are many children and youth waiting and hoping for a family of their own. Please take a minute to watch our inspiring video, share it with others, and keep the goals of National Adoption Month in mind every month, every day. And congratulations again to the thousands of LGBT parents who have built their families by adoption!

As the season progressed, we learned the basics and began to gel as a team. I liked our coach and discovered his baseball teams consistently went to the league championships, plus he held the league record for most coaching wins. Many of his players earned college scholarships, and several were playing in Major League Baseball. As our league water polo games approached, the intensity increased. Our baseball coach was beginning to get the best from everyone on our young team. We were beating teams ranked much higher, and we rose from fifth to second in the league standings. Only one team stood in the way of our winning the league championships. That final game was awesome. We beat the best and went on to celebrate the victory. Coaching counts As I manage my staff and leadership team, my natural tendency is to try to fix their problems. It is easy to find fault and criticize. Have you ever wished your people were as accountable, responsible and hard working as you? Do you often hope your people will change and improve? People want to do more Think about your project or company. You can't do it alone. You need staff, suppliers, subcontractors, managers, foremen and workers to get the job done. Most everyone wants to do a good job. And, the simplest way to get what you want is to give them the recognition they deserve. A system that works When I'm out of town, or when it's impossible to see everyone, I make time to write short appreciative notes. I often see these notes proudly posted on their bulletin boards for weeks. It is amazing how a kind word goes such a long way. I also leave short voice mail messages telling them how much I appreciate their work. Any praise or recognition given now is better than waiting for the "perfect" time to do it. With our customers, architects, suppliers and subcontractors, I try to send handwritten thank you notes regularly. This keeps them excited about being on our team. This also motivates them to go the extra mile when we really need them. A winning coach

Police: Convicted felon arrested after shots fired report A report of shots fired led to the arrest of a Wilmington, man who was allegedly in possession of a firearm he's not allowed to have. Wilmington Police say officers arrived in the area of Lancaster and Clayton Streets around 4:45 p.m. Friday afternoon for a report that someone was shooting at a group of people. Officers then spotted Michael Carroll, who police say matched witnesses' descriptions of the suspect, on the 100 block of N. Rodney Street. Police say Carroll was carrying a revolver he's prohibited from having because of his prior felony convictions. He was also allegedly carrying a box of ammunition. He's was taken into custody and will be arraigned at JP Court 20. No one was injured during the incident. |

Cornelius & Toots are back, and a Haunted House Ride seems a little spookier than usual!

I originally released this on Newgrounds at the end of 1999. It was developed in Flash 4 but I've updated the controls to take advantage of Flash 5+, which solved the keyboard lag problems in the previous version. I also added more health and more ammo, to make things easier for people. Enjoy!

This is a really good game and a good classic. Trying to get 44 points is a little difficult (for me, at least), but it's possible.
Everyone asking for Pico 2 doesn't realise that this is it. And its awesome.
The game is great; fast and fluid. Its also hard but isn't impossible like other people claim it to be.
P.S Where can I listen to the artists' works? The links to their MySpace accounts tell me their work isn't there ;-;
Tom, I wish you made these classics today. Seriously, it's a great classic. And I loved playing it since 2006, great work Tom.

Hello all,
Jretune is a Jack client inspired by the 'autotalent'
plugin (re)discovered and discussed some time ago on
the LA lists.It uses the same algorithm (autocorrelation) for pitch
detection, but there the similarity ends. All the code
is entirely new.Its purpose is to process solo voice recordings
to ensure they have correct pitch. It can't do
miracles but it helps in some cases. Don't expect
it to work on a mix.Main differences are:
- Jretune is a Jack client and not a plugin.
- A *much* cleaner output due to a better resampling
and cycle jumping algorithm.- A very simple GUI, just 12 switches that allow to
disable notes, and a 'nostalgic' analog tuning meter.
The latter means you could probably use it as a guitar
tuner as well, but don't expect miracles.Later versions will include a 'tuning' control to
define the set of expected pitches, and maybe some
other controls.This version is very much a beta one, released only
to invite feedback from users. Once it has stabilised
a bit it should be easy to tranform it into e.g. an
LV2 plugin for those that want this, as the complete
DSP code is contained in a single C++ class.
Please don't do this now as the code is very immature.
For the same reason it's available on request only,
and I would expect packagers to ignore this version.If you want to test this just drop me a line to get
the sources.--

Ge wiz, Mostly Pittsburgh (6) and Detroit(6) on the schedule. Some teams only twice.
I would hope they consider changing that. It seems like Pittsburgh and Detroit are always featured in this style of programming. For example, Pittsburgh seemed to be on 94 in HD 80% of the time last year. And when NBC does it's Sunday coverages - it always seems to be Detroit, Pittsburgh, The Devils, Dallas, and CO.
Don't get me wrong, watching Crosby, Malkin, and Stahl is a good thing, but with the proliferation of channel choices now, the NHL in conjunction with D* should work to showcase other teams to help grow support for the entire league - not just the teams that have a few top names players.
The NHL is a different sport and has a different style of fan base than that of say the NFL - where the Cowboys, Giants, and Indy seem to get a lot of prime time coverage. IMO the NHL's audience has a greater capacity to value teams and matchups beyond they're hometown or "favorite team.

Rich Quick - Travelin' Man (STREECE Remix)
Artist: Rich Quick
Featuring: Reef the Lost Cauze
Producer: STREECE
Album: Sad Songz EP
Avg Rating: 4.5 ( 21 votes )
Since this is his DJBooth debut, you can't blame me for not knowing much about Rich Quick. All I (and you) need to know is that Quick has a co-sign from the legendary Tim Armstrong of Rancid and The Transplants; that makes him a winner in my book. An energetic, fun cut like Travelin' Man (STREECE Remix) doesn't hurt his resumé either. Quick exhibits a smooth, charismatic delivery with an infectious, feel-good vibe over the charming STREECE beat. Adding some diversity to the cut, Reef The Lost Cauze and Rakka Iriscience (of Dilated Peoples) hop on the mic to showcase their distinctly-pitched, but similarly charismatic flows. Believe it or not (considering the name of the project), there are plenty more vibrant cuts to be found on Quick's Sad Songz EP, available now on iTunes.

"Our website is offering huge savings on hotels in the top UK cities for the summer season, and now is the perfect opportunity to lock in these rates.

The savings are not just in small markets, as we have discounted hotels in the largest cities such as Aberdeenshire, Cornwall, Devon, York, and Cambridgeshire.

After a quick visit to our website they soon realize that we have great savings at the top destinations," explained Totally Hotel's Davis Smith.
The summer season is one of the most popular travel seasons in the UK, so consumers that are thinking of making travel plans can save a tremendous amount of money by securing totally cheap hotels early. Rates can be locked in now for summer travel. Mr. Smith added, "It is a great opportunity for those that take an annual summer trip and have a destination in mind. The top cities throughout the UK are very popular summer destinations and as we get closer to summer the hotel prices will continue to climb and there will not be the kind of savings available that are present now."

#1 Airplane quarantine scare reminds us we're all at risk04-26-2012, 11:23 PM

As the story of Delta flight 3163 being quarantined after landing at Chicago's Midway International Airport broke Thursday afternoon, scant details of a passenger with a medical issue started to unfold which got many people wondering, what could have happened?
Aviation officials in Chicago said the city's health department and fire department responded to a flight that landed at Midway International Airport, but local police and fire officials told Fox News the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was handling it.

Goffredo Petrassi / Ottorino Respighi / Alfredo Casella / Giorgio Federico Ghedini / Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari
Orchestre de la Societe des Concerts du Conservatoire
Italian Orchestral Music
Get notified when available- Type CD
- Label Australian Eloquence
- Catalog number ELQ 4805374
- Release date 29 March 13
About the album
Five composers, three LPs, an all-Italian, all-rare 2CD compendium. Fernando Previtali's orchestral recordings for Decca of music by Respighi, Casella, Ghedini, Petrassi and Casella were recorded in July 1956 and had a relatively short lifespan. Other than Respighi's Pines of Rome, the remaining music was then – as it is now – largely unfamiliar to the concert-going and record-buying public. Another disc of late-19th/early-20th century orchestral music, conducted by Nello Santi, of some particularly piquant music by Wolf-Ferrari completes what is bound to be a much sought-after release.

Well I'm new to Bamboo... And just had quite a bit of it installed along a fence line.... My question is regarding the leaves curling.... I have been watering it 2-3 times a day... But just before the noon watering I notice the leaves that face the sun are partially curled.... I know the landscaper explained that the leaves will curl when they need water but wondering if they also curl to protect themselves from the heat of the sun... ( seems the quickly unfold when the leaves are misted... Any help would be appreciated.. |
Follow-Up Postings:
How hot is it where you are? And have you tried to use a moisture meter to determine how dry your soil is when this happens? My experience with bamboo leaves curling is that they do this to conserve water when the plant is getting dry. When I have full, bright sun and temps in the eighties, I don't see leaf curling if the plant has enough water. One other thought is that, if the plants you just planted did not have very large root balls, the root systems may not have enough capacity to provide all the water needed. This could happen if the plants you put in were just divided (taken out of the ground), had marginal-size root balls, and had not been allowed to stabilize in pots and re-build their roots for a number of months first. Do you know if your plants had been in pots for a while? |
- Posted by speedjester none (My Page) on Sat, Oct 12, 13 at 18:16
Some of them were freshly dug up clumps.... The landscaper checks on them periodically ... He explained same as you... That the ground may be damp but the roots are not sufficient just yet to absorb all the moisture required by the plant..... Out of 175 ft of bamboo..most are doing fine with one deep watering in the am..there are two or three clumps that require additional watering throughout the day...But seems they are going later into the day before he leaves start to curl...Temps have been Mid to low 90 in direct sun.. |
If you live in a temperate zone, this problem will diminish as the season gets cooler. You may still lose a clump or two, but most of them should be fine in several months. |

Winning Wines
Wineries you can purchase from on their name alone
There are some winemakers whose wines I buy every year. Not only do they produce many excellent wines, but even at lower price points and in mediocre vintages the wines are compelling and delicious. What makes them so successful? This sort of consistency emerges from a dedicated commitment to quality fruit in the vineyard and a desire to gently shape wines from that fruit rather than manipulate it into a preconceived idea of what the wine should be. These are wineries that I believe you can purchase on name alone.
Piedmont, Italy
In a nutshell: Dynamic property balancing traditional and modern winemaking techniques. Access and ownership of some of Piedmont's best vineyards assures inherent quality.
How they taste: Finely textured with great clarity of flavors. Elegant wines with a combination of earth and fruit flavors.
Check out: Arneis (white), their basic Barbera, and for special occasions, any of their single-vineyard Barbarescos.
Robert Sinskey Vineyards
Los Carneros, California
In a nutshell: Organic winery that makes wine to enhance the relationship among people, the land they inhabit and food.
How they taste: Silky, seductive wines that always taste like they were made from something with roots deep in the earth. Great complexity, but also just flat-out delicious wines.
Check out: Any Pinot Noir and their Pinot Blanc, one of the best New World expressions of this underrated varietal.
Owen Roe Winery
Washington and Oregon
In a nutshell: Medievalist applies Thomistic worldview to wine.
How they taste: There's an underlying warmth to winemaker David O'Reilly's wines. They always taste of fruit but are fundamentally vinous— that is, they taste like wine!
Wines to seek out: O'Reilly's Pinot Gris, Ex Umbris Syrah and for special occasions, any of the wines from the great DuBrul vineyard.
Available at Madison's finer wine stores. If unavailable, most purveyors will special order from their wholesalers if requested. Michael Kwas is wine director at L'Etoile restaurant. He writes this column monthly.

Oct. 4 (Bloomberg) -- The 30-stock Micex Index plunged 5.7 percent to 1,267.77 by the 6:45 p.m. close in Moscow, paring an earlier loss of as much as 7.6 percent. The dollar-denominated RTS Index declined 5.2 percent to 1,224.92 rubles.
The following were among the most active stocks in the Russian market today. Stock symbols are in parenthesis.
HMS Hydraulic Machines & Systems Group Plc (HMSG LI) gained for the first day in five after the Russian machinery maker said first-half profit rose fivefold. The London-listed shares climbed 0.5 percent to $4.50.
OAO Raspadskaya (RASP RX) plunged to its lowest in more than two years after Kommersant reported the Russian coal producer may produce less than 6.5 million metric tons this year, missing its output target by 24 percent, citing analysts' estimates. The shares fell 13 percent to 78.51 rubles in Moscow, lowest close since July 2009 and the biggest one-day fall since May 2010.
OAO Sberbank (SBER03 RX), the nation's largest bank, dropped by the most in two weeks, losing 8.5 percent to 62.53 rubles, after the Russian currency fell for a fifth day against the dollar. A weaker ruble encourages Russians to withdraw and convert ruble deposits, Sberbank's main source of funding.
VTB Group (VTBR RX), Russia's second-largest bank, fell to its lowest level since November 2009, losing 7.2 percent to 6.107 kopeks.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
When starting up a new session, you'll need to create some tracks. In this video, I am going to explain the different types of tracks and how to create them. If you go to the Track menu and select New, you'll see the New Tracks dialog. Here is where you create all of your new tracks. We've got listed here Create one new Mono audio track, with samples as the timebase. We can choose the track format, Mono, Stereo or some sort of surround soundtrack type.
We can choose between Audio, Aux Input, Master Fader, VCA Master, MIDI Track, Instrument Track, and Video Track. Let me tell you a little bit about these different types. Audio Tracks are used to record and arrange recorded or imported audio files and regions. It's important to remember that Pro Tools session documents don't actually contain the audio files; the session references them from the hard drive. These audio tracks can be Mono, like a single voice track, Stereo, like a piano track, or multi-channel on HD systems or Pro Tools systems with the complete production toolkit too.
Aux Input tracks are used for effect returns, sub-mixing, and a variety of other signal routing tasks. Aux Input tracks can be Mono, Stereo, or multi-channel as well. Master Fader tracks are most often used to control the overall level of all the audio signals routed through the main output paths. For instance, if you have 12 audio tracks all routed to analog outs 1 and 2, a Master Fader track with its output assigned to analog outs 1 and 2 will control the combined output level of those 12 audio tracks.
Master Fader tracks can be Mono, Stereo, or multi-channel. I highly recommend putting a stereo Master Fader track into any Pro Tools music session you create to monitor the overall output level. VCA Master tracks are only available in Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools systems with the complete production toolkit too. VCA Master tracks emulate voltage controlled amplifier channels on analog recording and mixing consoles and are used to control tracks in a mixed group that are assigned to a VCA Master.
They do not pass audio, so they don't have any input, output, inserts or sends, yet they can be mono, stereo or multi-channel. You may not ever use one of these in one of your sessions. MIDI tracks are used to record MIDI performance data--that is notes, velocity, pitch band, et cetera. Because no audio passes through them, there is no option for mono, stereo, or surround. Instrument tracks are essentially a combination of a MIDI track and an Aux Input. They allow MIDI recording as well as audio monitoring of an inserted software or hardware instrument on the track.
Finally, Video Tracks, which are only available on HD systems and Pro Tools systems with the complete production toolkit too. However, you can import a video into Pro Tools, and a video track will automatically be created. We'll cover more about video tracks later in this course. So I am going to go ahead and create a number of tracks here. If you click these Plus and Minus buttons, that will add or subtract new tracks. Create a Stereo Aux Input, Stereo Master Fader, Stereo VCA Master, a MIDI Track, a Mono Instrument Track, and a Video Track.
So now you know how to create tracks and what the differences are between each type of track.
Access exercise files from a button right under the course name.
Search within course videos and transcripts, and jump right to the results.
Remove icons showing you already watched videos if you want to start over.
Make the video wide, narrow, full-screen, or pop the player out of the page into its own window.
Click on text in the transcript to jump to that spot in the video. As the video plays, the relevant spot in the transcript will be highlighted.

Happy for you!
Sunderland have been one of the teams at the end of the season.
Happy for you!
It's unreal to think we could actually finish 12th. We play Swansea next if we win, Villa is away to Spurs, and West Ham away to City.
That would be great for you guys! I think you guys deserve it. You had a ton of unlucky games this season that could have/should have been 3 pts. Glad to see you guys staying up.
I'm happy for Sunderland. You guys def deserve to stay in the Premier League for another season! You have stepped up against the 'big' teams in the league and Poyet seems to have the players believing! Well done.
Thanks Sunderland! Showed lots of heart against City & Chelsea! Would like to see Sunderland in the league for another year.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
This commercial is neither funny nor accurate, and therefore is completely ineffective. In order to have a positive impact, a commercial must give people either something to laugh at, or something that they can relate to, and this ad accomplishes neither. The character attempts humor through sarcasm, and comes off as either a bit of a redneck, or a bit insane. I don't know anybody who can relate to the idea of being so frustrated with a computer that they would destroy it, by a gun or any other means. The ad fails in its attempt to gain publicity or Epinions, because after watching this ad I got the feeling that Epinions was simply another anti-Macintosh site or a site exclusively devoted to computer topics, and if i weren't already a member this commercial would not have made me join. My final point is that I think this commercial was a terrible waste of time, energy, and a $1,500 machine that could have been put to much better use.
