Video- No Goal, Then A Goal For Milan Lucic
by Paul on 03/28/15 at 01:26 PM ET
Comments (1)
via the NHL Situation Blog,
At 1:41 of the first period in the Rangers/Bruins game, video review determined that the puck deflected off Milan Lucic's skate and into the net in a legal fashion. According to Rule 49.2 "A puck that deflects into the net off an attacking player's skate who does not use a distinct kicking motion is a legitimate goal." Good goal Boston.

Concerned About The Scoring Slump Rick Nash Is In?
by Paul on 03/25/15 at 08:30 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,
It is seven straight now without a goal for Nash, still one shy of 40 and now third in the league behind Alex Ovechkin's 45 and Steven Stamkos' 40. And if this slump — one goal in the past 10 and two in the past 14 — were almost inevitable, it raises uncomfortable questions at this time of year because of what happened last year (and the year before) in the playoffs.
It is the elephant in the room for the Blueshirts and for Nash, who is always diligent in all three zones, who always approaches matters with the utmost preparation and professionalism. But the record is indelible, at least until No. 61 can erase it, and that's the record that shows Nash with three goals in the playoffs last year, all against Montreal, and four in 37 postseason games as a Ranger.
Given the spotlight (or is it, microscope?) under which he will operate from the opening puck drop of Game 1, it behooves the Big Easy to sprinkle one or two in the rest of the way so his mind is clear when the dance begins.
"That's a good question," Nash said to The Post in response to being asked how much of a goal-scoring slump becomes mental. "I want to stay positive, and be here for the team, but I know that me helping the team is by scoring.
"So, it's frustrating, but I'm trying to stay positive and continue to do all of the things away from the puck and in the defensive zone that helps us win.
"It seems like I'm getting my opportunities. I've just got to stick with it."

The Anaheim Ducks Suffered A "Butt-Kicking" By The New York Rangers
by Paul on 03/23/15 at 09:49 AM ET
Comments (1)
from Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register,
In trying to put a tourniquet on the bleeding that a rout by the New York Rangers was producing, Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau called his team over and read it the riot act.
The team that is pushing for 50 wins for a second straight season and the regular-season points title for the first Presidents' Trophy in franchise history. The team that was absorbing a 7-2 loss Sunday night from one that's right behind in the chase for the NHL's top spot.
All of it while being captured in front of a national television audience. A few other choice words in the rant probably wouldn't be suited for a child's ears but a feeling of embarrassment emerged out of the visitors' locker room at Madison Square Garden.
"We looked more like No. 30 than we did No. 1 tonight," Boudreau said. "But it's over. It's a good, old-fashioned butt-kicking. We couldn't look at anybody that was really good. We were all in the same boat."

'Scouting' Report On Cam Talbot And Phil Kessel
by Paul on 03/20/15 at 02:16 PM ET
Comments (1)
from Allan Muir of Sports Illustrated,
• I asked a scout earlier this week about what the trade value of Rangers' backup/late-season hero Cam Talbot is likely to be. The answer won't thrill New York's fans. "Best-case for the Rangers? If they find someone really desperate? Maybe a second rounder," the scout said. "More likely, though, a third and a little something on the side. Depends on where the [acquiring team] is picking." He also said that unless he was blown away by the offer, he'd be inclined to retain Talbot if he was Rangers GM Glen Sather. "He's cheap [$1.45 million] and reliable. You never know what can happen. He's quality insurance."
• The same scout on Toronto's Phil Kessel: "He's a unique talent, but I don't know about him. I think he'd excel as a supporting player on a top team, but if that's true do you want to assume the risk that comes with him? You'd have to have faith in your leadership's ability to bring him into the mix [and] find him a place where he fits in. It would take him a long time to get out from under [this] cloud, you know? I'd prefer a guy with a lower ceiling who was lower maintenance."

Henrik Lundqvist Won't Rush His Return
by Paul on 03/19/15 at 08:16 AM ET
Comments (2)
from Brett Cyrgalis of the New York Post,
After all this, Henrik Lundqvist isn't about to rush.
The Rangers franchise netminder said on Wednesday night "it's been a long six weeks," and it sure has been since he first suffered a blood vessel injury in the back of his neck on Jan. 31. Yet he was cleared Tuesday to practice, and he was cleared to speak to the media before the Rangers' 1-0 loss to the Blackhawks, when he said he will rejoin the lineup only when he's good and ready.
"I'm not going to force it," Lundqvist said. "It's not about me, it's about what's best for the team, too. I'm not going to just jump out there because I want to play. I want to make sure when I go out there, I feel ready and I can make a difference and help the team. Before that, it's better for everyone if I just stay in practice and work on my game."
The plan is for the 31-year-old Lundqvist to practice as much as possible — which, with the Rangers' upcoming schedule, isn't very much. They have just two full-team practices over the next week, Friday and next Wednesday before they leave for Ottawa for the beginning of a two-game, four-day trip, which Lundqvist plans to be on.

Henrik Lundqvist Cleared For Practice
by Paul on 03/17/15 at 03:19 PM ET
Comments (2)
NEW YORK, March 17, 2015 – Following an exam and consultation with specialists, Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist has been cleared to return to practice with the team.
Lundqvist was injured on Jan. 31. The Rangers all-time wins and shutouts leader posted a 16-4-0 record, along with a 1.82 goals against average, a .938 save percentage, and one shutout in his last 20 appearances prior to suffering the injury. For the season, Lundqvist has a record of 25-11-3, along with a 2.25 goals against average, a .922 save percentage, and five shutouts.

The New York Rangers Have A Real Shot At The Cup
by Paul on 03/17/15 at 08:38 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,
You know what? This is real. This sustained run of superior hockey on and off Broadway the Rangers have produced over the last 14 calendar weeks that has reached a crescendo in the absence of Henrik Lundqvist is merely affirmation of this team's upper-echelon status in the NHL.
You can't win the Stanley Cup in March, and no one is pretending the Rangers have won anything yet. And no one is pretending the Rangers have won anything over the last four seasons — the first two with John Tortorella behind the bench, these last two with Alain Vigneault calling the shots — other than respect.
But step-by-step, year-by-year, the Rangers and their core have established a base of expectations. No, they haven't won the Cup since 1994, but they have won the most playoff rounds in the East the last three springs and over that span, only the acknowledged powerhouse Blackhawks have as many, and only the two-time champion Kings have won more best-of-seven series than the Blueshirts.

Birth Name: Gerald Norman Springer
Birth Place: London, England
Birthday: February 13, 1944, Aquarius
Profession: TV host
Say what you will about this silver-haired tabloid talk-show host, he certainly parlayed what could have been 15 minutes of fame into a long and healthy career. Although his eponymous series---which became a smash syndicated hit with its never-ending parade of trash-talking exes and decked-out drag queens---was decidedly low-rent, Springer is an intelligent ex-politico with a dramatic history. Born in England to Jewish refugees who fled Nazi Germany, Springer immigrated to the U.S. as a child. After graduating from law school, he worked as an aide to Robert F. Kennedy but joined a Cincinnati law firm after his boss was assassinated. In the 1970s, Springer was elected to local government, serving as a city councilman until a scandal forced him to resign in 1974. (He patronized a prostitute and was caught because he paid for her services by check!) But a few years later, he spun his illegal activities into a campaign platform of honesty, was reelected councilman and later served as the city's mayor. During the 1980s, he traded politics for journalism, becoming a popular newscaster and radio personality. In 1991, he went national with the syndicated Jerry Springer Show. Although it started out as a subdued, serious Donahue clone, the host spiced things up in order to improve the ratings and he ended up becoming an international entertainment icon simply by sitting back and letting his guests behave badly. No matter how violent or outrageous the episode, he always closed the show with his incongruous catchphrase, "Take care of yourself, and each other." Springer's fame led to a plethora of TV and film cameos, a starring turn in the thinly veiled autobiographical 1998 flick Ringmaster and a country album. A ubiquitous pop-culture punch line---there's even an opera named after him---Springer has a more serious side as a high-profile Democratic fund-raiser, activist and political commentator. In 2006, the so-called Sultan of Salaciousness melted viewers' hearts when he signed on to Dancing with the Stars so he could learn to waltz for his physically challenged daughter's wedding. He took his dancing shoes to the stage in 2009, playing Billy Flynn in the musical "Chicago" in London and on Broadway.

Joseph Smith Chronology
This chronology introduces readers to the energetic pace and broad scope of concerns that characterized the daily life of the Prophet Joseph Smith. It lists events that can be tied to specific days or weeks. Each event is briefly summarized in this chronology.
LDSFAQ is a website with over 400 questions about history, doctrine, and beliefs of the LDS church. Concise answers will be provided in a few paragraphs. All answers are supported with references and related questions are linked to one other.
The biographer of Joseph Smith's early life will know his subject when he relies on sources that know their subject. This truism is more obvious in statement than application, for non-Mormon biography has not faced the severe limitations of the uniformly hostile affidavits taken by a sworn enemy of the Mormon Prophet. The image thus obtained is sharply discordant from the Joseph Smith documented in the 1830's: a leader of physical prowess and vigorous manhood, a profound idealist with spontaneous humor and warmth, who displayed personal courage under tremendous odds. A similar youth in the 1820's is discovered, not by editing out non-Mormon sources, but finding those non-Mormon sources that reflect definite contact with Joseph Smith. Such a study shows that collecting informed statements about the Prophet will produce a substantial favorable judgment.
Although initial collection of statements against Joseph Smith is an oft-told story, its outline is a necessary background for the affidavits to be analyzed. D. P. Hurlbut, excommunicated twice by LDS tribunals for immorality; became so personally vindictive that he was put under a court order restraining him from doing harm to the person or property of Joseph Smith. He was next "employed" by an anti-Mormon public committee to gather evidence to "completely divest Joseph Smith of all claims to the character of an honest man. . . ." To achieve this goal he traveled to New York and procured statements at Palmyra Village, the largest business center adjacent to the Smith farm and also at Manchester, the rural district that included "Stafford Street." Cornelius Stafford, then twenty, later remembered that Hurlbut arrived at "our school house and took statements about the bad character of the Mormon Smith family, and saw them swear to them."
The Painesville, Ohio, editor, E. D. Howe, replaced Hurlbut as a respectable author, and published the affidavits in Mormonism Unvailed(1834), laying the cornerstone of anti-Mormon historiography. Howe lived to see the solidity of the edifice, observing forty-four years afterward in his memoirs that the book "has been the basis of all the histories which have appeared from time to time since that period touching that people." More accurately, Howe's writing was insignificant, but the Palmyra-Manchester affidavits published by him have introduced Joseph Smith in every major non-Mormon study from 1834 to the present. Yet even supposedly definitive studies display no investigation of the individuals behind the Hurlbut statements, nor much insight into their community.

I'm working on a new little garden-scape around the porch where my dog hangs out. We don't have much of a mosquito problem around here but the flies are enough to drive you mad! So basically, I'm looking for anything I can plant that would help to keep the flies away. From what I've read any of the following could help:
Tea Tree
I have a pretty long list of seeds up for trade and a few plants- so if you have any of the above mentioned seeds or plants (or any others good for repelling flies) take look and let's trade!
I have plenty of mints I can trade ya for your lemon grass and straight 8 cucumber seeds.And I can cut you a piece of my citronella plant
Hi there,
I'd be happy to take that trade :) I noticed you also have maypop cuttings on your trade list. Is there anything else from my list that you might want in exchange for that as well? Feel free to pick several varieties- I know postage can be a bit more with cuttings. Either way, email me your address and we'll trade something or other!

Game: Atlanta Hawks at Miami Heat
Prediction: Miami Heat
Reason: Ai Simulator 3* graded play on Miami. AiS shows a 70% probability that Miami will lose this game by 4 or fewer points. True enough is the fact that this be more or less a scrimmage, but it is nevertheless a 3* Major. Miami (14-67) needs to win its finale to avoid setting the worst record in franchise history. The Heat went 15-67 in their inaugural 1988-89 season. So, yes motivation will be a factor to some extent. I also believe Atlanta will preserve most of their starters for Game 1 against Boston giving the Heat a solid chance to win in front of what few home folks may even attend this game. Take the Heat.

ANA / KAN Over 8.5
The KC Royals still own the second-best team ERA (3.10) in MLB despite their 11-6 loss at Seattle last night. KC also owns MLB's top bullpen ERA at 2.50. Getting the call for KC in this game in Anaheim against the Angels is the team's big free agent signing from a year ago, Gil Meche. Meche opened with a solid effort vs the Tigers back on March 31 but in two starts since (both vs the Twins), he's struggled. He's lasted just 11.2 innings while allowing 11 hits, six walks and 11 ERs for an ERA of 8.49. That doesn't spell good news when facing an Angel lineup which leads the majors in batting (.301) and has scored the second-most runs (79). Remember, the Angels just 'killed' right-handed pitching last year, going 75-47 and that included a 31-8 mark vs righties in home night games, with the Angels averaging 6.7 RPG. The Angels have opened '08 by going 9-5 vs righties, averaging 5.2 RPG. Historically, Meche is 7-2 with a 5.13 ERA in 17 career starts against LA and while he's 6-1 in 10 career starts at Angel Stadium, he hardly deserves much credit for that lofty record, as his ERA in those 10 starts is 6.07! LA will start Jered Weaver and as I pointed out last Friday night in going against him (won with Seattle, 8-5), Weaver fell off more than most people realize last year. As a rookie in 2006, Weaver had a 2.56 ERA, while allowing just 94 hits in 123 innings. Last season, his ERA was almost a 1 1/2-runs higher (3.91) and he allowed 178 hits in his 161 innings. Against the Mariners last Friday, Weaver allowed four hits (two HRs), four walks and five ERs in just 5.2 innings. I realize that start was on the road but this total is too tempting to pass on. Go over with KC/LAA.

Utah Jazz (54-27) at San Antonio Spurs (55-26)
The Spurs and Jazz would like to grab a win tonight, home-court advantage in round one is at stake for both squads. The Jazz will have a big assignment tonight. They haven't won in San Antonio since 1998 season, dropping 17 straight. Go with the home team. The home team in this series has won eight straight and the Spurs have covered the spread in their last 5 games against the Jazz at the AT&T Center.
San Antonio Spurs
San Antonio Spurs - 4
Phoenix Suns -11½
Tampa Bay Rays (6-8) at Minnesota Twins (6-8)
Minnesota has taken nine of the last 11 versus the Rays at home, 6-20 in the last 26 and will send right-hander Livan Hernandez to the hill. Hernandez held the Royals to seven hits over seven scoreless innings, allowing seven hits and just one walk in his last start for his third win in his three starts this season. He is 2-2 with a 5.77 ERA in six career starts against Tampa Bay. The Rays counter with their ace James Shields. The right-hander is 1-1 with a 6.17 ERA in two career starts against the Twins. Go with the Twins with Livan Hernandez at the helm to stiffen the Rays.
Minnesota Twins + 110

Re: Wednesday Service Plays
AAA Sports
Atlanta Braves at Florida Marlins - Under 9
Note: This has been one of my favorite plays for a very long time and that is when Tim Hudson steps onto the mound. His games are 6-1 UNDER the last 7 and 5-0 UNDER the last 5 while on the road. He is a damn good thrower and off to another great start for his Braves. In 21 innings thrown he has spotted the opposition just 12 hits and only 2 bases on balls. What makes him so good is his ability to keep the ball down in the strikezone and his very good control that does not allow for many additional runners. Because he does these things so well, he rarely gives up a dinger. That is a good thing at this park and perhaps why he is 4-0 with a 1.87 ERA in five starts at Dolphin Stadium. He has been successful verses this team as he is 6-1 with a 2.28 ERA in 10 starts against Florida. Of course he is pretty tough on just about everyone he throws at so this comes to no surprise to me. He is more than likely going to give us some quality innings and probably a lot of them as he usually does. These Marlins are hitting the ball this year but will be hardpressed to do well verses Tim. That gives us a good jumpstart on accomplishing our goal tonight. This park can get windy and we are expecting those tonight but they are primarily coming either in from leftfield or left to right across the diamond. At best the winds will not be a factor for this contest. The Marlins first thrower today has been up and down throughout his career, but mostly up this year with reasonable numbers and less hits given per innings thrown. While he has not beaten the Braves, in two starts versus Atlanta, he does have a 4.15 ERA. That is good enough for me to pull the trigger with an Atlanta team that is 9-2 UNDER their last 12 road games. The Homeplate Umpire is a bit of a concern as he has demonstrated to me that his zone is a bit too wee but both starters have better than average control. Marlins bats have cooled a bit, scoring just 5 times over 3 games and they will face their toughest opponent tonight with Mr Hudson. It takes 10 to beat us tonight and more times than not, that is not going to happen.

NY YANKEES (Wang) -155 over BOSTON (Buchholz)
Tonight's game is a rematch of a game that was played 5 days ago in Boston where Chien-Ming Wang pitched a complete game surrendering just two hits.In fact he has just given up 3 earned runs in total this season. He will be opposed by Clay Buchholz who has shown some promise this season but should be no match for a New York team who seems to have found a groove.Derek Jeter has returned to the lineup for the Yanks and has 5 hits in their last 2 games, and has seemed to spark a dormant offense. We expect the Yankees to take the young Buchholz to school tonight.
Dallas* over New Orleans by 14
The game we were waiting for has materialized with a situation attached to it, although not in the manner expected. The original thinking was that Dallas had to win to prevent New Orleans from being #1, therebyavoiding a First Round match-up of #2 Lakers vs. #7 Mavericks.
Instead, Dallas must win to ensure the #7 spot, avoiding a fall to #8 and a First Round match-up with #1 LA, and cementing an instant re-hook with #2 New Orleans that would begin over the weekend.
The Hornets stayed on their home floor for a half-hour after last night's win against the Clippers, celebratingtheir division title with their fans. Would Hornets' head coach Byron Scott mind losing tonight's second of back- to-backs off the division title, and making the First Round match-up with Dallas happen? Well, Jason Kidd plays on Dallas, and Scott despises Kidd (and vice-versa from their time as fake head coach and chief basket-clanger in New Jersey), the overrated bum who thinks he should run the teams he plays for. It's destiny for these two clowns to be forced to look at each other and think bad thoughts six or seven times in the next two weeks.

Theater & Music, Chicago
25 Reviews
25 Reviews
When we were planning this trip we made a decision to go see Charles Dicken's "Christmas Carol" at the Goodman Theatre. It was a great choice and the strange thing was I had just done a bit of research on paid internships for my nephew who is an actor (albeit it an out-of-work actor.)
The theatre was founded back in 1925 as a tribute to the playwright Kenneth Sawyer Goodman, has recieved a special Tony award for "Outstanding Regional Theatre." They have staged many top stage productions as " Death of a Salesman" "Zoot suit" "and "Seven Guitars". The presentation of Dicken's "Christmas Carol" which is procuced seasonally is a fantastic testament to this theatre's history.
There is not a bad seat in the house for the "rake" of the seats is a sharp one, so be prepared to climb some stairs, there are, of course elevators for those with impaired mobility. During the production a "extraordinary" moment occured. Being an actress, I fully comprehended what this moment did for the actor. Scrooge had just been redeemed, he begins to laugh, very rusty at first. This laughter tickeled a small child in the sudience who then laughed out loud at Scrooge. Time stood still for a brief moment. I saw a flicker of recognition in the actor's face but he did not break the "4th" wall, instead he used it to fully develop his own laughter which took on immense proportions and swept the audience into the moment as well. Wow! That is good theatre!
I highly recommend if you are in the Chicago area to stop and see what is playing at the Goodman Theatre. A good time will be had by all.
Ticket prices vary, we paid $35 per ticket and had a marvelous view of the stage.
To see portions of interior, be sure to check photos 2 and 3.
The Cadillac Palace Theatre is located at the corner of Randolph and LaSalle Streets, and it was first opened in 1926. Legendary theatre architects [the Rapp Brothers] were the designers. Known for its splendid interior that was inspired by the palaces of Versailles and Fontainebleau, this splendor has returned as a result of the 1999 restoration and renovation.
Originally, it was opened as the "flagship of vaudeville's legendary Orpheum Circuit". Many famous people played here such as Bob Hope and Jack Benny. When vaudeville went out of favor, the theatre was converted to a movie palace that presented combinations of live theatre and movies. In the 1950s, the theatre managers started booking occasional Broadway shows.
Sadly, in the 1970s, the Bismarck Hotel transformed the auditorium into a banquet hall. To do this, they removed the seats on the orchestra level to bring the floor flush with the stage. By 1984, it was named The Bismarck Theatre and became a rock n' roll venue.
Thank goodness, it was restored and renovated about 1999 and renamed The Cadillac Palace. It now serves as a wonderful home for most of the pre-Broadway hits such as "Mamma Mia!" and "The Producers".
Yesterday [February 2, 2006], Allan and I saw Little Women, the Musical. It's such a pleasure to see and HEAR a musical at the Cadillac Palace. Most seats are excellent, and the acoustics are excellent.
When visiting Chicago I always recommend a trip to the famous Second City. This is a definite Do Not Miss!!! Second City boasts a slew of famous alumni such as John Belushi, John Candy, Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Gilda Radner, Tina Fey, Mike Myers and Bonnie Hunt - just to name a few. Their mainstage show runs every night of the week (twice on Fridays and Saturdays) and changes each year, except Mondays. On Mondays the mainstage features their touring company performing Second City's "Greatest Hits". In the Spring they are usually testing out new material for their next show. Regardless, any time is a great time to see them perform. They are always political and usually hysterically funny. And the theatre is small enough for every seat to be great. If you want to sit up front get their early as seating is first come. The mainstage also sells out often, especially on weekends so I recommend buying your tickets in advance. Tickets are $17 and you can buy them online or through the box office. Although if you are in town during the week you can occasionally buy half price tickets at the Hot Tix booth in Water Tower the day of the show. But there are no guarantees that tickets will be available through Hot Tix. They serve food (although a little pricey) and have a full bar with servers that come to your table throughout the show. Every night of the week (except Friday) Second City offers a free improv session on the mainstage after the last show of the night. If you're already seeing the show hang out for the free improv. If you saw an earlier show or are just in the neighborhood you are welcome to come on up to the theatre to catch the late night act. It's so much fun! I have seen many of their shows and even the same show multiple times and it still gets me laughing. You can also check out what's playing on their second stage if the mainstage is sold out. They also offer a training program if you're interested in learning more about improv and sketch comedy.
Chicago has a lot of great theatres to offer. "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change," is a great musical comedy performing at the Royal George Theatre on Halsted. It's funny, and the acting and singing is superbe. After the show, I was lucky to have the chance to meet one of the actors for a photo and an autograph, too!
From the moment it began, I was laughing! "Menopause, the Musical" is hysterical! The songs they sing are all popular, familiar tunes, but when you listen to the lyrics, you see how they've changed them to make you laugh. It's so funny! You must see it!! You won't be disappointed! Womens' night out is a wonderful time! Guys, don't be afraid -- you'll love it too! Everyone will enjoy this play! It's impossible not to laugh! It's a riot!
The downtown Chicago Theatre District has an impressive number of theatres, and on any given night it is possible to choose between a great selection of musicals. When I was in Chicago, "Wicked" and "Jersey Boys" were playing, and for those it was better to book your tickets in advance. However, for most of the other musicals, rush tickets were available (see my shopping tip). I ended up going to see "Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story" since it was playing at the Drury Lane Water Tower Place Theatre, just two blocks down from my hotel on the Magnificient Mile. The Drury Lane WTP Theatre opened in 2005 and sits about 550 people. I was lucky enough to get a seat near the stage, at the center of the theatre, and had a fantastic time - I still catch myself singing "That'll be the day", "Oh boy" and "Peggy Sue" from time to time!
But even if the theatre I went to was located a bit outside of the Chicago Theatre District, I still went for a walk in the Randolph Street area, mostly to see two of Chicago's most legendary theatres: the Chicago Theatre, built in 1921 and located at 175 North State Street, is the city's oldest surviving theatre and a bit of a landmark; the Oriental Theatre, located at 24 West Randolph Street, is built on the site of the Iroquois Theatre, where one of the deadliest fires in US history broke out in 1903: almost 600 people were killed when the crowd massively rushed to the exit doors, which then opened inwards. Building and fire codes throughout the world were subsequently modified to make sure such a tragedy would not happen again. Today, the Oriental Theatre is known as the Ford Center for the Performing Arts and the musical "Wicked" has been playing there since June 2005.
The Chicago Symphony Orchestra played their first concert on October 16, 1891and has been one of the most important orchestras in the world ever since. The CSO has performed numerous American premieres of pieces by Strauss, Elgar, Holst, Tchaikovsky, and has been home to many of the world's finest conductors, such as Boulez, Solti, Bernstein, and Barenboim.
At the concert I went to, famous conductor/cellist Mstislav Rostropovich played the Haydn c minor cello concerto...from a purely technical standpoint, his playing has definitely seen better days, but his musicality and expression were spectacular, not to mention that all of the cadenzas were improvised.
OK I will stop here, because, to quote one of my favorite movies, "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture."
The Chicago Symphony can only truly be experienced by a concert at Symphony Center or at least on a good stereo system.
The Second City Theater has been the launching pad for actors/comedians such as John Belushi, Bill Murray, Mike Meyers, Eugene Levy, Tina Fey, Horatio Sans and Rachel Dratch. Second City began as a small cabaret called the Compass Players, and now operates comedy clubs in Chicago, Toronto, Las Vegas, Detroit and Los Angeles as well as several touring groups.
The actors write and perform comedy revues and do a little improv too. I saw the revue entitled "Doors Open on the Right" (the title quotes the recorded announcements that play on the L at each stop informing passengers which side to exit the train)....anyway, the show was terrific. It's sort of SNL style-with shory scenes that don't necessarily have anything to do with each other, but sometimes do.
I was a little surprised at how often Steve Bartman (poor loser who touched-and dropped-that foul ball last year) came up, but it was funnier every time he popped up. My favorite scene was with a married couple and a marriage counselor, who was totally on the woman's side...the husband ends up having to decode the wife's stories about chess sets and yellow gumballs to find all she really wants is to have another baby.
Chicago is historically known as a breeding place for actors and the theater. There is the theater district downtown, but my favorite is the Steppenwolf Theater. Ensemble members include John Malcovich, Gary Sinese, Laurie Metcalf, John Mahoney, Terry Kinney, Martha Lavey.....many many more.
If you like Saturday Night Live, go see where half of the stars on the show learned how to do improv comedy at Second City.
But, if you are more of a film fan, like me, then visit one of our historic movie theaters. The Biograph, Music Box and Esquire are my favorite places to see international, independent, and old classics. Plus, the theaters themselves are beautiful landmarks of Chicago.
The picture is of the Biograph Theater on Lincoln avenue. Ganster John Dillinger was finally gunned down outside after alluding the police for decades. His mistress the "lady in red" turned him in. Some believe his ghost hangs out around here. I think you might see a more frightening sight here around 2 a.m. when all college students come wandering out of the bars after one too many drinks.
Lots of visitors to Chicago as well as locals enjoy this improv show.
The Neo-Futurists theater group attempt to perform 30 short plays in 60 minutes. Guests pay an admission that varies from $6 to $11, based on their lucky roll of some dice upon entry. Guests are then asked their name and are issued a nametag that may or may not have anything to do with their name.
The audience is then handed a list of the 30 play titles, which correspond to 30 numbers hanging on a rope above the stage. When each short play is completed the company yells, 'Curtain!' and the audience yells out the next one they'd like to see performed.
Its a fast-paced fun time where the audience is involved from the start, and the theater is small and engaging. The short plays range from hilarious to somber and are often political and timely. If the theater sells out, they order pizza for everyone.
A friend took me to this really neat research library that has a PIANO! Yes, I'm very musically inclined but not with a piano :-( I sing though. This building is even connected to a fresh market with a lot of natural and vegan selections. MORE INFO TO COME.
This architectural gem with a decor of the Far East, was built back in the 1920's as a movie palace. Not only did it show motion pictures but it was a veritable museum of treasures from the Orient. Throughout its history it has housed movies and live theatre. In the 1970's the Oriental and other Randolph Street theatres had fallen on bleak times. The theatre was added to the Federal National Registry of Historic Places in 1978, but the building continued to crumble. The theatre was closed to the public in 1981. Then in the 1990's came the revitalization of Chicago's Loop, and the area was renovated and restored and now the Oriental Theatre is back in the limelight hosting such Broadway productions of "Wicked." In 1997 the Oriental's full name became The Ford Center of the Performing Arts Oriental Theatre."
The next time you are in Chicago try and check out the lobby of the theatre. Ornate fixtures, marble floors and sparkling chandeliers give an air of grandeur to this beautiful house of theatre.
If you enjoy watching comedies, then don't miss the Second City. The acts and jokes are extremely hilarious. The style is improvisational, so the actors are pretty professional in getting you to laugh. Topics range from everyday personal matters to current world events. The Second City can be found in other cities as well, like Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and New York, but Chicago was the birthplace of the Second City. It can be traced all the way back to the University of Chicago where a group of undergraduates started a show back in the 1950s. If you have a night to spare in Chicago, then come to Old Town, where the Second City is located.
We went to see the award winning musical 'Wicked' at the Ford Center for Performing Arts, Oriental Theatre. The show was great and the venue was nice. The theatre seemed really old but well maintained and was really beautiful on the inside.
Symphony Center is the home for more than 200 live concerts a year -- orchestras, recitals, jazz, superstar guest artists, visiting orchestras, and more.
I went there for Argentinian tango the other day.. The tango was quite mediocre but I`m sure you can choose something to your liking from this extensive list of events.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I'm looking for some advice, tutorial, or methods for hinting.
I'm producing Post Script Opentype fonts and using this process at the moment to hint.
1. Set the Alignment Zones - Not using auto zones which doesn't seem to do a great job.
2. Auto Hint the fonts with either FontLabs Auto Hinting or Adobe's AFDKO - I've tried both to compare results. I then adjust hints that don't seem to work.
3. Set the Standard Stems - Again not using auto stems but the method described here
After using this process and changing lots of different parameters I'm still getting hints that don't seem to be working.
This image shows the Sub/Superscript, the Superscript on the right is jumping all over the place at small sizes.
Is there anything else I can try to improve the hinting ?
Have you checked your bottom alignment zone for the superscripts? Remember that bottom alignment zones belong in 'Secondary zones'.
Yes the bottom alignment zones where set correctly in the Secondary Zones field
Screencap of your zones in glyph window?
Some of your glyph hints maybe overlaping some blue zones (perhaps the x height blue zone?). I would be happy to look at your vfb file if you like.
It would be a great help if I could send you the vfb - do you have an email I can send them to ?
send the file to malcolm(dot)wooden(at)sky(dot)com

"It's going to be fun, yeah?!" opened GPB to this last topic. Given the interview that follows, we can guarantee that you're not going to want to miss him on stage at DEVELOP3D LIVE on 26 March.

3D printing plays direct role in assembly tools for Volvo
Published 20 March 2015
Posted by Stephen Holmes
Designing tools for assembling products is a full-time hassle in itself - hence why those with thousands of components to piece together are looking to 3D printing to speed up the process.
Volvo Trucks' engine assembly plant in Lyon, France (it makes parts for Renault Trucks too, with the Swedes having bought it a while back), is using Stratasys' Fortus 3D printers to build jigs and fixtures for the assembly line staff, reducing the time it takes from 36 days to two days.
The speed comes as a factor of not having to build these in metal, which also means that it's cheaper too - especially where customised or small quantities of tools are needed.

Published 19 March 2015
Posted by Greg Corke
Nvidia is getting serious about interactive, physically-based rendering, which it delivers through its GPU-accelerated rendering software Iray.
The big news coming out of Nvidia's GTC conference today is that Iray will be made available for much wider range of 3D tools.
Rhino, Cinema 4D, Revit, Siemens NX, 3ds Max and Maya will all support Iray or Iray+ (developed by LightWork Design) this year through plug-ins or direct integration.

Prof. Benzion Netanyahu, father of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, was a
courageous and intelligent man whose dedication to Israel's history illuminated
the way for Israel's future, eulogizers told hundreds of mourners as the
102-year-old scholar was laid to rest in Jerusalem on Monday
afternoon.Heavy security in the cemetery meant the service was limited
to approximately 400 people.The prime minister and his younger brother
Ido, an author and doctor, memorialized their father's penchant for speaking
eloquent ancient Hebrew at all times, even when he had just broken his hand, and
his devotion to learning above all else."When Yoni said he wanted to
stay in the army, my father said to him, decide what you decide but make sure
you take time to learn, because learning is the most important," Binyamin
Netanyahu remembered."What interested him above all was the truth," said
Ido Netanyahu. "He was never interested in fame, just the actions
themselves.""You were smart, you always saw things coming, years before
the realization of Herzl's predictions, you understood he was right," the prime
minister recounted. "In 1937, when you were just 27, you wrote: 'Herzl saw the
glowing coals of fiery hatred against the Jews are about to flare up
again.There was in his eyes the look of catastrophe. It was clear that
someone was lying in wait to annihilate the nation.'" Binyamin Netanyahu spoke
of his father's dedication to lobbying members of the US Senate and Congress in
1939 to support the founding of the state of Israel, after he traveled to
America with Ze'ev Jabotinsky.Jabotinsky died in America, but Benzion
continued to lobby politicians to support Israel's founding."You were in
our heritage, our culture, our founding," remembered the prime
minister."For 10 years you turned the Encyclopedia Hebraica into a
reservoir of deep knowledge so much so that very few homes in Israel didn't have
this Encyclopedia Hebraica, and that could have been enough for an entire
lifetime, but it was just the beginning for you."Both brothers spoke
fondly of many memories of living in the United States during the elder
Netanyahu's research, which led him to universities on the East
Coast.The Netanyahu sons and President Shimon Peres also spoke at length
about Benzion's oldest son, Yonatan, who was killed in the Entebbe raid in
1976."The Entebbe operation was the Zionist and Jewish choice," Peres
told the mourners. "The father planted the roots, and the children grew
wings."He also noted how fitting it was that Benzion wrote about
history, while his son Binyamin is making history.The funeral attendees
represented the upper crust of Israel's political scene, including the highest
representatives from the police, army and security establishments. In addition
to most of the ministers, Netanyahu rivals opposition leader Shaul Mofaz and
Labor leader Shelly Yacimovich also attended the funeral.As per Jewish
custom, the Netanyahu family was the last to leave the graveside, greeting each
of the mourners personally as they came to pay their respects. The fresh
gravesite of the late Netanyahu was heaped with dozens of commemorative wreaths
from every branch of the government and major organizations.Netanyahu
ended his eulogy with something his father had written to Yonatan 46 years ago:
"I never told you how proud I am of the man you have grown into," he said, "and
of being your son."
