WASHINGTON (AP) — General Motors CEO Mary Barra didn't squirm on the hot seat Tuesday. On the job less than three months, she calmly answered or deflected tough questions from a congressional committee about faulty parts responsible for at least 13 deaths and the recall of 2.6 million cars.
Barra frustrated lawmakers by fending off questions, saying she was awaiting the results of an internal GM investigation. She didn't know why GM waited more than a decade to recall cars it knew had defective ignition switches. She didn't know who was responsible for the decisions that delayed the recall.
But experts on corporate damage control said she didn't have much choice and gave her high marks for her performance on the hot seat.
"Barra's rope-a-dope is the best of GM's bad options today," said Washington crisis management consultant Eric Dezenhall. "There isn't a corporate lawyer in the country that's going to allow her to engage in freelance speculation about things she doesn't know yet. No, that's not satisfying to the public and media, but the alternative is much worse."
Investors shrugged. General Motors Co. stock, down more than 7 percent since March 11, barely budged Tuesday, slipping 8 cents to $34.34.
Barra apologized for GM's slowness in warning customers about the problems and promised to change the automaker's culture to put a new emphasis on safety. "Barra held her ground, claiming that today's General Motors is a different company from the one whose corporate culture allowed this issue to fester for a decade," said Jack Nerad, executive editorial director Kelley Blue Book.
Ken and Jayne Rimer, whose daughter died in a 2006 accident after a faulty switch prevented airbags from deploying, found Barra's testimony incomplete. For Barra "not to have any answers" after about three months as CEO was unsatisfactory, Ken Rimer said in the hallway outside the hearing room. "It surprised me how unprofessional that was," he said.
Congressional appearances can be a minefield for CEOs. In 2008, automaker CEOS drew public scorn for flying corporate jets to Washington to ask for a government bailout. And Wall Street CEOs were battered in hearings after the financial crisis.

Gazelle ramps up iPhone trade-in program ahead of iPhone 6 announcement
It's that time of year already, folks. With September steadily approaching and a new iPhone announcement just around the bed, the market for old iPhone trade-ins is just about ready to kick into high gear. And leading the charge, per usual, is Gazelle.
Originally spotted by AppleInsider, Gazelle is running a new trade-in program where users can send off their old and used iPhones for cold hard cash. Under terms of the program, users have up until September 9th to get a locked-in price quote for their used device whereupon they can continue using the device all the way up to October 10th.
Naturally, how much one can get from an old iPhone is dependent upon the type of device and the condition it's in. For instance, if you have a flawless 64GB iPhone 5s, you can get a handsome sum of $350. But since the typical iPhone won't be "flawless" but rather in "Good" condition, here's a quick rundown of what iPhone models that fall into that category will go for. You'll quickly note that the models netting the highest prices are from Verizon while Sprint users get the short end of the stick.
Current models
iPhone 5s 64GB/32GB/16GB (Verizon) - $325/$310/$300
iPhone 5s 64GB/32GB/16GB (T-Mobile) - $225/$220/$215
iPhone 5s 64GB/32GB/16GB (Sprint) - $190/$185/$180
iPhone 5s 64GB/32GB/16GB (AT&T) - $285/$275/$265
iPhone 5c 32GB/16GB (Verizon) - $185/$180
iPhone 5c 32GB/16GB (T-Mobile) - $155/$150
iPhone 5c 32GB/16GB (Sprint) - $70/$65
iPhone 5c 32GB/16GB (AT&T) - $155/$150
Older models
iPhone 5 64GB/32GB/16GB (Verizon) - $195/$190/$185
iPhone 5 64GB/32GB/16GB (T-Mobile) - $160/$155/$150
iPhone 5 64GB/32GB/16GB (Sprint) - $115/$110/$105
iPhone 5 64GB/32GB/16GB (AT&T) - $170/$165/$160
iPhone 4s 64GB/32GB/16GB/8GB (Verizon) - $75/$70/$65/$55
iPhone 4s 16GB/8GB (T-Mobile) - $65/$60
iPhone 4s 64GB/32GB/16GB/8GB (Sprint) - $65/$60/$55/$50
iPhone 4s 64GB/32GB/16GB/8GB (AT&T) - $80/$75/$70/$65

Timesplitters, being developed by Free Radical Design, places the emphasis on fast, arcade-style FPS action. The game includes nine episodes spanning a hundred years in the one or two player mode. The arcade mode features several multiplayer games, including deathmatch, capture the bag, escort, and last stand. The game also has a comprehensive map-maker where players can create their own levels and environments.
Although Eidos, the game's publisher, won't be present at the ECTS show, we got our hands on the latest screenshots of the game.

Old kitchen hadn't been touched for 20 years. The scope of work basically involved: removing partitions, replacing cabinets, counter and appliances and adding a breakfast counter w/ cabinets below. Now the family has seating for 6 and a more (contemporary) open plan. All utilities (sink, range & fridge) were left unmoved to save on costs and construction effort.

Artist: Blindside
Album: The Great Depression
Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
These streets are as cold and wet
As my eyes, flesh and bones are longing home
I was taken out of context
And to think
You had me not speaking for a month or two
But it's not you, I know
It's just me waiting
Waiting for the sun to come out
We are to follow, what if I could stand still and get moved?
We are to follow, we are nothing running blind
We are to follow, we are so sick of it now
We are to follow, but I'm scared to be left behind
We are to follow, nothing now
The TV dies more and more for each day
And the beauty of your eyes
(In my hand)
Makes the flashing lights behind me
On the wall look even more pale
Four o'clock and the sky is getting red
And here I am, just me waiting
Waiting for the sun to come out
I'm throwing myself at you
And I'm holding on for dear life
Can I scream out of tune in this choir?
God help me scream
What if I would stand still and get moved

The weather cleared a little this morning, so I tried to "re-maiden" the buck and a half (flew briefly in high winds a week ago). Got all the way to the flying field and realized I had forgotten my canopy. Oh well, at least I got to fly my new PZ Spitfire Mark IX. Sweet little foam warbird if you're into that sort of thing.

Latest blog entry: Joe's Battery Contraption
Sep 09, 2011, 01:25 PM | |
So I got my build finished last night except for the long servo arm that I'm waiting on (hopefully it gets here today or tomorrow). I'm feeling good about it - and I'm dying to fly it.
One thing that I was impressed with was how well the plane balanced. I was also suprised how much play I have available in battery positioning to get the plane's CG from the front of the range (80mm) to the back of the range (90mm). The range is very small but it allows for relatively large battery movements. I'm running a 4s setup (4S 2500's) and to get the CG back to 90MM I have to put the battery all the way up against the wing tub. To get the CG up to 80MM I can move the battery a good 2 inches forward of the wing tube. It's nice to have that much play in my CG... |

This H looks very nice. It is situated on the 4th floor of a building very close to the main square (Rynek). We had a nice view from the window - however, the problem is, that the window is in a bad condition so people sleeping next to it had troubles with draught and cold at night. Also, there are no lockers in the room - we were six friends in a six bed-room, so it was not a trouble for us but if I were travelling alone, that would be a disadvantage. Staff was very helpful.

We're a team composed of three writer-directors and we've been lucky enough to have our first feature film, "Turbo Kid" have its world premiere at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. We've been writing and directing short films together for over 10 years. In that time, we've made over 20 shorts which were shown in festivals across the world. To put it simply, when most of our friends saved up to go on vacation, we took vacations from our regular jobs to make our films.
Since the very beginning, we've been pushing our limits on each new project, improving our style and technique each time. Starting from guerrilla style shoots, we moved on to bigger scale productions with professional actors and crew. We believe that starting with short films is a good way to prepare yourself for shooting a feature. It's better to make your mistakes (and learn from them) on smaller-scale projects. And trust us, you can never be too prepared!
Among our short films, the first one that got an audience to follow our work is "Le Bagman" (2004). Our main goal was to show the film in our hometown in Montreal and hope that people would be blown away. It grabbed everyone's attention and ended up playing at festivals around the world.
"Total Fury" (2007) was a big step-up in terms of artistic direction and technique (there really were none with "Le Bagman") and it won many awards in festivals as far as Sweden and Germany. Again, we had no idea it would go that far. We feel that our "world" jelled together and we came into our own craft with "Demonitron (2010), especially in terms of J-P Bernier's DP work and his music, being half of "Le Matos" (which has been producing our soundtracks since "Ninja Eliminator 1"). We made "T is for Turbo" (2011) for "The ABC's of Death" short film contest and it compiled the highest number of votes from the audience. It didn't make its way into the anthology, but one of "The ABC's" producers, Ant Timpson, liked what we did and offered to help us develop the idea into a feature. Here's what we learned through the process:

No Time for the Little People
Newspaper article Manila Bulletin , June 13, 2003
Article excerpt
A PRIESTS criticism of the Church as not having done enough for the poor brings back an incident during the rule of Emperor Hadrian of Rome. Hadrian was approached by an old hag with a grievance, and when he said he had no time for her (emperors are busy), she replied, If you have no time for me, you have no time to rule!
Jesus charge about doing the least for His brethren is not just about being Christian, its about true leadership.
Too bad, the hags words cant be addressed to government officials and functionaries by Edgardo de la Cruz, a retired government employe since 1991. A member of the Cavite Fishing Club, he was concerned about the destruction of coral reefs through dynamite fishing. He wrote to then President Ramos and got a reply. He didnt say what the reply was. Then he wrote to President Estrada but got no reply.
Now, De la Cruz also receives a monthly pension of R1,122. 50 from the GSIS but its not remitted regularly. His check for March is still nowhere to find. …

Got these for a friend's wedding. Wearing a black dress with them as I am her Personal Attendant. I am SO excited to play dress up! I don't usually wear heels this tall without a platform so they are a bit uncomfortable so I'm sure I won't be dancing in them.
the quality looked a bit cheap and wasn't keen on the front of the shoe. But Very comfy none-the-less.
These are still absolutely gorgeous, looking gorgeous can cost a price, which is blistering feet/toes. Not to be worn for long hours or standing for a vast amount of time. I have received plenty of complements.
Lovely shoe!!!! Comfy! Nice quality for the price! Its a must have! :)

George Lindsey, who starred as Goober on "The Andy Griffith Show," has died at the golden age of 83 on early Sunday morning.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
5/7/2012 (2 years ago)
Published in Celebrity
Keywords: celebrity, death, Goober, Andy Griffith Show
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The beanie-wearing Goober played on "The Andy Griffith Show" from 1964 to 1968 and its successor, "Mayberry RFD," from 1968 to 1971. Lindsey played the same cheery character on "Hee Haw" from 1971 until 1993, when it went out of production. When Jim Nabors, who portrayed Gomer Pyle, left the "The Andy Griffith Show" in 1964, Lindsey replaced Nabors as Gomer's cousin.
Other TV credits included roles on "M*A*S*H," ''The Wonderful World of Disney," ''CHIPs," ''The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour," ''The Real McCoys," ''The Rifleman," ''The Alfred Hitchcock Hour," ''Twilight Zone" and "Love American Style."
He also had movie roles, appearing in "Cannonball Run II" and "Take This Job and Shove It." His voice was used in animated Walt Disney features including "The Aristocats," ''The Rescuers" and "Robin Hood."
"At that time, we were the best acting ensemble on TV," Mr. Lindsey once said. "The scripts were terrific. Andy is the best script constructionist I've ever been involved with. And you have to lift your acting level up to his; he's awfully good."
Born in Jasper, Alabama, Lindsey received a bachelor degree in science from Florence State Teachers College, now the University of North Alabama, in 1952 after majoring in physical education and biology. Lindsey also played quarterback on the college's football team. After spending three years in the Air Force, he worked one year as both a high-school baseball and basketball coach and a history teacher.
In 1956, Lindsey attended the American Theatre Wing in New York City, beginning his professional career on Broadway, appearing in the musicals "All American" and "Wonderful Town." In the early 1960s, he moved to Hollywood and then to Nashville in the early 1990s.
Much of Lindsey's spare time went to raising funds for the Alabama Special Olympics. He sponsored a celebrity golf tournament in Montgomery that raised money for the mentally disabled for 17 years. In 1992, the University of North Alabama awarded him an honorary doctorate.
Reflecting on his career, he said in 1985: "There's a residual effect of knowing I've made America laugh. I'm not the only one, but I've contributed something."
In a statement released through the funeral home, Mr. Griffith said, "George Lindsey was my friend. I had great respect for his talent and his human spirit. In recent years, we spoke often by telephone. Our last conversation was a few days ago....I am happy to say that as we found ourselves in our eighties, we were not afraid to say, 'I love you.' That was the last thing George and I had to say to each other. 'I love you.'"

A woman with a murky past who kills herself—or was it murder? A spoiled kid awash in gambling debt who thinks he can beat the system. A lovely woman whose life is about to splinter into a thousand fragments. A professional shoplifting ring working for the Mob, racking up millions from stolen goods. A wandering husband, rich and ruthless. A dirty cop so entrenched on the force he is immune to exposure. A sinister gangster, conscienceless and brutal. A lonely widower mourning the death of his lover, desperate for answers, which may be worse than the pain of his loss. A private detective, Kinsey Millhone, whose thirty-eighth-birthday gift is a punch in the face that leaves her with two black eyes and a busted nose. And an elegant and powerful businessman whose dealings are defnitely outside the law: the magus at the center of the web. V: Victim. Violence. Vengeance.
Sue Grafton lives in Montecito, California, and Louisville, Kentucky. Most recently, she was named a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America.

A sleek, low-profile helmet with audio capability.
The K2 Women's Ally Audio Helmet features a super, lightweight design that won't give you a giant balloon-head complex. Equipped with a level 3 baseline audio system, the Ally brings your tunes to your ears and connectivity to your phone while you ride the lift or race down fresh groomers. Its speaker housing has a low-profile, minimal design so you won't even know it's there, and the Ally provides a detachable cord and a single squeeze button for pause/play and answer/hang-up so you don't need to worry about compatibility or buying a separate accessory for your MP3 player or phone.
In case the safety bar on the lift accidentally clanks down on your noggin before you're ready to pull it down, the Ally protects your head so you don't have to deal with a splitting headache. Its in-mold construction keeps overall weight down while providing effective protection from sudden crashes on the slopes or from low-hanging tree branches. K2 also equipped the Ally with passive channel ventilation that features channels on the inside surface of the EPS core to direct airflow between your head and the helmet. And you can banish gaper-gap worries, since the Ally comes with a 360 K2dialed fit system that features an ergonomically inspired three-point adjustable interface to maximize fit and customization with the twist of a dial for superb convenience on the fly. The cozy full-wrap liner system easily removes for washing, wicks moisture away, and supplies breathable comfort when you navigate down steep, techy terrain.

New Mexico Foods- A Santa Fe Vacationer's Guide (#2 in series)
Compliments of Pueblo Bonito Inn, a bed and breakfast in Santa Fe
Chile, beans, and corn are definitely "basic ingredients" to New Mexico cooking. All can be locally grown, with chile being New Mexico's largest agricultural crop. New Mexico chile, especially when harvested as green chile, is perhaps the defining ingredient of New Mexican food compared to neighboring styles. Other distinctive elements of traditional New Mexico cooking include: blue corn, stacked enchiladas, and sopapillas. When taking a vacation to New Mexico, visitors find green chile to be a popular ingredient served in a wide range of foods including: enchiladas and burritos, cheeseburgers, french fries, bagels, eggs and piazzas. Santa Fe Restaurateurs do not limit themselves to simply these categories, but are always creating innovative and tantalizing new culinary creations within the kitchens of this historic and enchanting city of "different"!
That being said, foods and dishes common to New Mexico to aid our Santa Fe visitors:

Christmas Travel to Santa Fe is a wonderful opportunity for families, couples, singles, young and old wanting to experience a special and holy holiday memory. Modern day religious traditions of the City of Holy Faith highlight past cultures of Spanish founders with downtown building roofs, walkways, balconies and windows decorated with farolitos anticipating the celebration of the Christ child. Past traditions handed down from the Catholic faith purposed these "holy lights" (made from paper bags, sand and votive candles) to illuminate the pathway for the Holy family. All the "magic" of the season comes alive in downtown Santa Fe as the City Different swirls with colorful lighted trees, garland wrapped portals, the sweet aroma of burning pine created by glowing crackles of romantic kiva fireplaces, while red chile ristras hang next to doorways welcoming weary visitors inside to enjoy tantalizing native cuisine. Tamales, Posole, Red and Green Chile as well as Biscotti's (beez-coh-chee-tohs) dunked in a cup of coffee or served alongside a glass of wine are favorite holiday offerings in Santa Fe.
Holiday Festivities begin in November at Thanksgiving with the annual Lighting of the Plaza. Community gathers to watch trees decorated in colorful Christmas lights turn to light the darkened plaza area ushering in the holiday season. Black Friday shopping proves fun, exciting and profitable as local merchants fill stores and picture windows with unique and beautiful items discounted for folks to surprise loved ones back home! After Thanksgiving and until the Christmas week begins, Santa Fe visitors can walk enchanting downtown streets all decked out with holiday lights, décor and smells (as described above) in a more peaceful, quiet serene atmosphere. The town is less occupied, yet offers all the historic culture and charm plus holiday events to enjoy with Santa Fe lodging special like that of Pueblo Bonito b&b Inn -Santa Fe ($99+ for downtown lodging complete with in-room kiva fireplace!).
When it snows, Santa Fe can transform into a wonderful wintry snow land! Ski Santa Fe located 3,500 ft above downtown in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains (16 mile drive from Pueblo Bonito b&b Inn) offers downhill skiing, snow boarding and lessons for all ages Thanksgiving thru Easter.
Christmas Eve tradition features the historic Canyon Road, home to over 200 art galleries, a few shops and a handful of restaurants. Canyon Road and many of the downtown streets are closed to traffic while thousands of pedestrians stroll up and down Canyon Road with friendly greetings, spontaneous caroling, contagious smiles and utter enjoyment of the luminarias (piñon bonfires stationed along the street). People warming their hands over the bonfire, hot cocoa being sipped contently, flickering farolitos illuminating the way. It feels like the whole city has turned out for the festivities. Some shops and galleries are open offering hot chocolate, cider and cookies to share the holiday spirit. Worshipers attend Midnight mass at the
Cathedral Basilica of Saint Francis de Assisi. This beautiful Catholic cathedral engulfs New Mexico traditions and in itself is a special place to spend Christmas Eve.
Christmas Day most places of commerce are closed, but several Pueblos dances are available to enjoy throughout the day. Tesuque, Santo Domingo and other nearby Pueblos offer the Santa Fe Holiday traveler an extra special opportunity to view sacred Native American dances. Festive costumes, rich history and celebratory atmosphere are certain to create a one of a kind memorable Santa Fe Christmas for travelers of all ages!

Historic New Mexico Mission Tours -Santa Fe via Pueblo Bonito Inn.
San Miguel Mission: also known as San Miguel Chapel, is a Spanish colonial mission church located in downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico - a block from the historic Pueblo Bonito Inn. Claimed to be the oldest church in the United States, San Miguel Mission was built around 1626. Damage sustained during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 was rebuilt in 1710 following the Spanish reconquest for which the chapel served Spanish soldiers. Hand carved pieces located inside the chapel include a wooden statue of Saint Michael dating back to at least 1709. Though the church has been repaired and rebuilt numerous times over the years, its original adobe walls are still largely intact despite having been hidden by later additions. The mission is a U.S. National Historic Landmark.
Loretto Chapel- originally a Roman Catholic church, now privately owned and used as a museum with wedding chapel. A long time subject of legend, the "Miraculous Staircase" and circumstances surrounding it are considered miraculous by the Sisters of Loretto as well as many visitors. In 1872, a convent chapel was commissioned to be built and named Our Lady of Light Chapel for the Sisters of Loretto. Designed by French architect Antoine Mouly in Gothic Revival style, ornately decorated with spires, buttresses, and stained glass windows imported from France, the Loretto Chapel built on a smaller scale, bears close resemblance to Paris's Sainte-Chapelle. After the architect's sudden death, and much of the construction finished, it was realized no type of stairway to the choir loft was provided. Needing a way to get up to the choir loft the nuns prayed for St. Joseph's intercession for nine straight days after which a stranger appeared at their door. Offering to build the nuns a staircase, but requiring total privacy he locked himself in the chapel for three months. Using a only primitive tools including a square, saw and warm water he constructed a spiral staircase entirely of non-native wood. The carpenter's identity was never known for as soon as the staircase was finished he was gone. Witnesses, upon seeing the staircase, felt it was constructed as a miraculous occurrence by St Joseph himself. The mystery has never been solved as to who the carpenter was or where he got his lumber, for no reports were made of anyone seeing lumber delivered nor of the man come and go while construction was done. Less than a five minute walk from Pueblo Bonito b&b inn- the Loretto Chapel is a must see when Mission touring Santa Fe.
Cristo Rey church (Spanish for Christ King), is a beautiful adobe example of historic New Mexico Mission architecture with notable Spanish colonial retablos and santos adorning its sanctuary. Used for worship, weddings and community events, this active Roman Catholic church quietly sits at the east end of Canyon Rd on the corner of Cristo Rey street. An easy five minute drive from Pueblo Bonito b&b as you peruse the famous art and sculpture work on Canyon Road.
Galisteo Mission the Pueblo of the Tanos (Galisteo Pueblo) was founded around 1250 AD. A thriving community of 1,000+ surface dwellings was situated on the west side of Galisteo Creek. This pueblo presented an impressive appearance to outside visitors for the time period. Once named "San Lucas" by Spanish settlers in 1590, Juan de Oñate renamed the pueblo "Santa Ana" in 1600. In early seventeenth century again renaming occurred and the village became known as "Santa Cruz de Galisteo". Franciscan brothers founded this first permanent mission among the Tanoan speaking people in 1612. It was the earliest mission in the Galisteo Basin as well as one of the earliest missions in New Mexico. This 17th century church was unique as it was built sufficiently wide – having three aisles with two rows of support columns leading from the sanctuary. Though it is not certain whom is responsible for the notable church design, Fray Pedro de Ortega, is thought to have contributed. Galisteo Mission is located a short, but beautiful 20 minute drive south of Santa Fe's Pueblo Bonito bed and breakfast inn off Hwy 41 in Galisteo New Mexico.
The Santuario de Guadalupe originally built in 1781, located on Guadalupe St- just a five minute walk north-west of Pueblo Bonito b&b inn, it is known as the "Soul of Santa Fe". This historic mission church played a very significant role in religious, cultural, and traditional life of the people of Santa Fe. It is the oldest, still-standing church dedicated to Our Lady of Guadalupe in the US and Canada. Located at the end of the Camino Real (the main route from Mexico City via Chihuahua to the Southwest) which brought Spanish ancestors and the Franciscan friars who ministered and sowed seeds of Christian faith with a devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe. This historic New Mexico mission is considered to be very holy. El Santuario de Guadalupe church is currently an art and history museum and contains the Archdiocese of Santa Fe's collection of New Mexican santos (carved images of the saints), Italian Renaissance paintings, and Mexican baroque paintings. Among the treasured works is Our Lady of Guadalupe, one of the largest and finest oil paints of the Spanish Southwest, dated 1783 and signed by Jose de Alzibar, one of Mexico's most renowned painters.Sanctuario de Chimayo – Located north of Santa Fe, New Mexico on Hwy 285/520 – a short 20 minute drive from Inn at Pueblo Bonito in the historic village of Chimayó, New Mexico – one can view this rustic and serene active Roman Catholic Church. This is one of the most famous churches in New Mexico and North America. Known as a shrine and National Historic Landmark, El Sanctuario de Chimayo receives over 300,000 visitors a year and is called the most important and largest Catholic pilgrimage center in the United States. The walled courtyard entrance is one of the most photographed sites in Northern New Mexico and houses a small cemetery. This picturesque church, built of three foot thick adobe walls has a bell tower on each side with pointed caps and a metal pitched roof that were probably added in the 1920s. Thick, yet elegant wood doors were carved by 19th-century carpenter Pedro Domínguez while notable folk-art carvings and decorations can be found inside the sanctuary and narthex. Of special note, a small room called el pocito (the little well), located just left of the front alter, contains a round pit. This "round pit" is the source of "holy dirt" (tierra bendita) that is believed to have healing powers. The adjacent Prayer Room displays photographs, discarded crutches, and unique testimonials of those who have received healing. Recently added is the outside sanctuary needed to receive mass numbers of pilgrims on Good Friday and Easter walks.
Pecos Mission (aka: Mission Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles de Porciúncula or Mission of Our Lady of the Angels of Porciúncula) was a mission that served the people of Pecos Pueblo near Pecos, New Mexico. The first church at Pecos Pueblo is thought to have been built by Franciscan Fray Pedro Zambrano Ortiz around 1619. This isolated church was built along a narrow ridge, 400 m northeast of the pueblo's main quadrangle, as the pueblo people would not allow construction closer to their dwelling sites. A permanent church was constructed outside the walls of the pueblo of Pecos, New Mexico in 1625. This church was destroyed in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, wherein the Spanish were ejected from New Mexico. After the Spanish reconquest in 1693, a smaller church was built in 1717 for which the walls of this later church still stand on top of the prior church's stone foundation. Ruins are located 25 miles south east of Santa Fe's Pueblo Bonito Inn off I-25 in Pecos National Historic Park.

It's widely recognized for blending contemporary design aesthetics with traditional building materials. Presenting a panorama of breathtaking background scenery, the Jemez Mountains to the west and Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the east create a one-of-a-kind night "performance" of their own. The current theatre opened in 1998 and combines a total area 26,615 square feet of sweeping stage and mezzanine roofs which have a clerestory joining the two roofs. The "shape of the sound" inspired the roof concept has curves that follow the acoustic reflections of sound from stage to audience. Due to the unique roof size and design, it is capable of collecting rainwater- approximately 60,000 gallons can be stored annually and used to maintain the opera grounds!
Art & History: Designed by John Crosby in 1956, primarily with the goal to give American singers the opportunity to learn and perform new roles while having ample time for rehearsal and preparation, its first season opened on July 3, 1957. SFO is internationally known for introducing new operas as well as for productions of standard operatic repertoire. Since its inception, the Santa Fe Opera has staged over forty American and eleven international premieres, and has commissioned nine new operas.
SFO General Director, Charles MacKay describes it best: "Finding the right mix of repertory is our challenge each year — with a world premiere, a new production of a rare Rossini masterpiece, an Offenbach comedy, classic Mozart and a beloved opera by Verdi, Santa Fe offers operas for the adventurous and the neophyte. To be sure, beautiful music abounds!"
