Jessica Biel isn't stressing about her upcoming trip down the aisle.
Justin Timberlake's bride-to-be, 30, spoke to E! News at Variety's Power of Women luncheon in L.A. Friday about her laid-back wedding planning philosophy.
Explaining that she's no "bridezilla," Biel added, "I'm just pretty much cool as a cucumber in general in my life. So no, I'm cool." (In August, the "Total Recall" star admitted that she's pretty content to be hands-off when it comes to the specifics for her big day. "I'm one of those people who is not very detail-oriented," she explained. "I'm sort of the . . . big idea person, so I'll probably give an idea and then let it be created.")

Recently, Timberlake -- who was on hand to support his future wife as she accepted an award at Friday's event from Jennifer Garner -- spoke candidly during a press conference about his bond with Biel.
The former 'N SYNC crooner, 31, told reporters his fiancee and love of five years is "a really, really, really special person." Plus, "she's really, really hot!" Timberlake exclaimed.
PHOTOS: Justin Timberlake's style evolution
As he preps for married life, the Tennessee native says he looks to his mom and stepdad's marriage for inspiration.
"Some days are better than other days for all of us -- and if we have our good days and bad days individually, and then we're dealing with someone else's good and bad days on top of that, it's going to add up," Timberlake said. "My mother is a ball of fire in the world and I love that about her. But what I have learned from my stepdad is something as important, which is patience and compassion. Because when you are living with someone else, those two qualities go a long way."

What I'm Reading (on e-Patients, Social Media, and Favorite Westerns)
Anyone else feel like keeping up with reading around the diabetes / health communities online is becoming overwhelming? Yup. And that's a good thing, because it validates that what we're all doing here is meaningful. Don't believe me? Just ask CNN's big-shot medical correspondent Elizabeth Cohen, who just published a book called The Empowered Patient (nope, I haven't read it yet, but it's on my list!).

AMHERST — Water — we drink it, cook with it, bathe in it, and our lives are dependent on it. Yet many people know little about how water is treated to make sure it is fit for human consumption. One expert is David A. Reckhow of Florence, a professor in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the University of Massachusetts. Reckhow and his colleagues in November received a $4.1 million grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to create a national center for

AMHERST — A permanent board to link the University of Massachusetts and the town of Amherst, which could be vital to the success of future housing and economic development initiatives, is a key recommendation from the Town-Gown Steering Committee in its draft final report. The steering committee met for the last time Thursday and will send a memo to Town Manager John Musante and UMass Chancellor Kumble Subbaswamy urging them to create what would be known as the University-Town of Amherst Collaborative.

NORTHAMPTON — Greenfield Community College's licensed practical nursing program will return to its roots at Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School after a sharply divided board of trustees voted Tuesday. The decision will make space for the LPN program by ending a 23-year-old lease with the Northampton Parks and Recreation Department, which now has six months to find a new home. The nursing program has been housed at the VA Medical Center in Leeds in recent years and will move to a voke school building

AMHERST — Students at the University of Massachusetts who remember Bill Cosby as the fatherly Dr. Huxtable and creator of "Little Bill" are disappointed in the allegations against the comedian, and proud of their university's decision to cut its ties with him. "If he's not exemplifying what UMass stands for, then I don't think it's worth keeping him around," UMass freshman Darlene Irons, 18, said Sunday. The university announced last week that it cut its ties with the embattled entertainer amid allegations that he sexually

NORTHAMPTON — Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School trustees will vote today on whether to host Greenfield Community College's licensed practical nursing program. Smith Voke Superintendent Jeffrey Peterson said "This is certainly a need of the community, and it's a great opportunity for us."

AMHERST — The University of Massachusetts Amherst announced Wednesday night that it has cut ties with embattled entertainer Bill Cosby amid accusations that he sexually assaulted more than a dozen women during his career. UMass joins at least two other schools that have distanced themselves from Cosby. Cosby is a graduate of UMass Amherst and until Wednesday had served as an honorary co-chairman of its $300 million fundraising campaign called UMass Rising. He and his wife, Camille O. Cosby, are also significant donors to the
AMHERST — Agricultural students at the University of Massachusetts, Hampshire College and Holyoke Community College will benefit from an $810,000 National Science Foundation grant that will be used to create collaborative programs combining clean energy studies with sustainable agriculture.

NORTHAMPTON — Panelists at a forum on medical marijuana this week explored the complexities of using pot medically, from the legality of growing it to finding the right dosage and knowing when it is and isn't safe to drive.

Be dominant. Be imposing. Fight like a big man. Own the ring. This was Joseph Parker's checklist and with a seventh round TKO win over experienced American Brian Minto he ticked all the boxes and more in Manukau last night.
Parker said he would make Minto look like a little man and he delivered.
"I executed the plan we put in place and my coach is very happy," Parker said. "I told everyone I was going to be lean and mean. I'm going to go home and celebrate this victory. We've developed speed and power but we're still at the beginning stages."
The rising South Auckland heavyweight set the tone by establishing his distance with a fast left jab. Minto struggled to get inside - there was virtually no sign of his come forward approach - and after a tentative start was forced to constantly lunge forward off balance.
Anyone who has followed Parker's rapid rise has seen his power and speed but this was a performance founded on patience and discipline. It showed he can fight to a game-plan and execute against a quality opponent.
"The public of New Zealand can be very proud of how much he's matured in the last six months," trainer Kevin Barry said. "He's going to be something very special."
Parker was tested at times - Minto caught him with glancing blows - but for the most part he was in total control over the 12-year veteran.
The 22-year-old knocked Minto down in the fifth round and then opened his arms. After rocking him again in the seventh Minto did not return as his corner threw in the towel. The eighth, ninth and 10th rounds were not needed; Parker had finished the job and his home crowd responded by chanting his name.
The WBO Oriental and WBA PABA titles are now his - and you get a sense there will be plenty more to come, too.
Having been knocked down twice, Minto knew at the end of the seventh round he had no chance of winning. He also confirmed he had carried a broken nose - suffered in sparring just last week - into the fight.
"He's big strong and fast. I'm very impressed with his skills," Minto said. "He's a good prospect. Fighting a 22-year-old kid is tough. I've got two beautiful children and a wife at home. I do have a broken nose and I lied to everyone. My dad is on his death bed and this is my livelihood."
With another vicious display, this time on the undercard, Robert Berridge left no doubt about his credentials, either.
New Zealand's premier light heavyweight made good on his promise and wasted little time disposing of Rogerio Damasco, flooring the second-rate Brazilian twice in the first round to secure his 20th career knockout.
For good measure, he also broke Damasco's nose.
"It came pretty quick," Berridge said, barley a bead of sweat on his brow. "I said I was going to rip his face off."
Berridge is chasing a world title fight with undefeated Russian WBO champion Sergey Kovalev. This effort, along with the retention of his WBO Asia Pacific and PABA titles, will only enhance the chances of that match-up happening and his drawcard potential. With a record that now stands at (24-1-1), his destructive punching power is becoming increasingly difficult to overlook.
Australian welterweight Jeff Horn also made an immediate impression with his first appearance in New Zealand.
With a completely dominant point's win (120-107) over durable Brazilian Fernando Ferreira de Silva (32-3-1), the Brisbane schoolteacher claimed the WBO Oriental and WBA PABA titles and took his record to 8-0, despite fighting through the pain of a broken hand suffered in the sixth of 12 rounds.
Horn was on trial and is now sure to be added to Duco's growing boxing stable.
Throughout the brutal brawl, Horn showcased his lethal right hook, impressive hand speed, fast combinations, relentless pressure and elusive qualities. He stalked de Silva all over the ring but had to wait until the final round to record an inevitable knockdown.
Lightening quick hands were also the feature as promising Kiwi light heavyweight Nikolas Charalampous extended his unbeaten pro career to eight fights.
North Shore-based Charalampous had Sydney's Aaron Lai in trouble from the outset. Lai took plenty of punishment, particularly from Charalampous' left hand, which resulted in standing counts in the first, third, fourth and final sixth rounds.
Handing Lai, who was previously 6-0, his first defeat shows Charalampous is building his career nicely, having only turned pro last year.
Tipping the scales at a whopping 168kg, Dave "Brown Butterbean" Letele and Manu Vatuvei's older brother, Lopini "Horse" Vatuvei, put on a genuine slug-fest. This was a free-for-all of flurries from the get-go with some heavy shots landed by both fighters. Letele, carrying a 54kg weight advantage, won by split decision.
Earlier, DJ Tuini won an underwhelming fight with fellow reality television rival Jade Louise.

I have read that historically there have been systems that will collect roughly the first runoff for a stronger brew, and then sparge for another quaffable brew. I may try this soon but am wondering what the opinions around here are at to what stle(s) lend them selves to that. Imperial Stout and a light porter/brown ale?
Has here anyone done this before?
I do batch sparging by the same method but I mix the wort in one brew.
It'd be interesting to see how they turn out.
Very classic would be a barleywine or strong ale and then a bitter.
Try to find some anchor beers to get an idea, they make their Small Beer from the second runnings of their Old Foghorn barleywine.
The reason that this was done. Is that the water supply wasn't good for your health to drink. When they boiled the beer it would kill all the bad things in the water that would kill you. They did a second run off of the beer and it was less potint and after boiling and fermentaion was safe to drink. The second run off was given to children usally. This goes back to collenal times as well as midevil times.
Happy brewing!
Primary: Local Honey Mead;
Secondary: Merlot;
Keg: "Experimental" American Ale; Kinda Nutty Brown Ale;
Bottled: "Oatie the Oatmeal Stout"; NB Saison; "666" by request; NB 115th Dream hopbursted;EdWort's Apfelwein
Up Coming: Imperial Oatmeal Stout; House IPA
I sometimes brew an imperial IPA and an english bitter.
I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they get up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.
Primary: "I Scream for Cream Ale"
Secondary: empty
Aging: Pinot Noir
On Tap: empty
Next: prickly pear mead.
The original batch sparging. Three runnings were also common; yielding a barleywine, a porter or brown and a small beer. I've done a barleywine and a Brown. Might do another in 2007 or 2008, whenever the 2003 Old Bog Water blows.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
Was the colonial 'small beer' fermented at all, or just a sweet soft drink?
So far, I've had more experience thinking than I've had brewing....you don't think they are mutually exclusive, do you?
72 batches so far,
48 wine, mostly Loquat, peach, plum, prickly pear
23 beers and ciders
1 sauerkraut
1 Tequila, from a prickly pear wine experiment that didn't work. I call it "Prickly Heat"
Once the wind has been broken, it cannot be fixed.
I'm thinking about doing a Poor Richard's and a small beer, but it will have to wait until the Schwarzbier is done. I am not going to buy a fourth fermenter.

Taming the TODO
My method of planning has really changed over the years. I went from micromanaging my schedule by assigning specific times to tasks to keeping an unsorted list on my day page. I tried both keeping one big list of tasks and using projects to group together related tasks. Sometimes I think up weird things, too, such as having my computer automatically display a fortune cookie whenever I finish a task.
This is where Planner.el really shines. Because it's built on top of Emacs, I can change anything I want through a simple, easy-to-learn programming language. I've tweaked it to fit not only my planning style but also my little quirks. Although my planning style has changed much in the past three years, being able to replace bits of Planner.el and add new features has made it possible for Planner.el to grow along with me.
There are many ways to manage your tasks, so spend some time finding one that fits you. Here are some things to remember:
Make it as easy as possible. Use keyboard shortcuts and scripts to simplify task creation and review.
Don't get overwhelmed. Keep your task list short and simple. Don't drown in hundreds of TODOs or choke on intimidating tasks.
Fill in the cracks. Put all of your important tasks in there. If you can, put minor tasks in as well. Check your list regularly.
Hack your system. Keep an eye out for ways to improve your way of planning. Don't spend too much time hacking your system and not enough time actually accomplishing your TODOs, however.
Have fun!

American Realty Capital Trust (ARCT)
Luxor Capital Group said in an Oct. 15 letter that it intends to vote against American Realty's proposed merger with Realty Income o -0.37073170731707317% Realty Income Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD51.06 -0.19 -0.37073170731707317% /Date(1427490352635-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1459612 AFTER HOURS USD52.38 1.32 2.5851938895417157% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 46658 P/E Ratio 50.06373173840573 Market Cap 11490747273.1622 Dividend Yield 4.45358401880141% Rev. per Employee 7532040 More quote details and news » (ticker: O).
In the letter, Luxor said that while the deal offers clear benefits to Realty Income, for American Realty it is "dilutive to AFFO [adjusted funds from operations] and importantly, dramatically dilutes the dividend yield...."
As of Sept. 6, when the merger was announced, the stock deal valued American Realty at $12.21 a share.
Luxor said that it owns 10,112,796 shares (6.4% of the total voting shares) after buying 9,555,797 from Sept. 6 through Oct. 10 at prices ranging from $11.86 to $12.42. Luxor also disclosed selling 810,001 shares from Aug. 17 through Oct. 1 at $11.30 to $11.71 per share.
Globecomm Systems (GCOM)
Emancipation Capital called on Globecomm to reinitiate a process to sell itself.
In a filing, Emancipation said it believes that "the best interests of all of the shareholders and the maximization of shareholder value will be served only through an orderly, robust, and public auction, which would elicit the most attractive bid from a third party."
Emancipation asserted that Globecomm's "prior sale process and efforts were flawed and incomplete, and served to effectively dissuade legitimate strategic acquirers from expressing interest and investing the effort and expense in pursuing an acquisition." Emancipation also criticized the Globecomm board, calling its composition, processes, and compensation "flawed," and citing unspecified conflicts of interest. Emancipation called on Globecomm to add a director to represent one of its large shareholders.
Emancipation said that it has 1,164,043 shares (5%) after buying 366,084 from Aug. 29 through Oct. 16 at prices ranging from $10.90 to $11.79. Emancipation also disclosed selling 134,716 shares on Aug. 31 at $11.72 apiece.

Investor's Average Cost: $29.06 per share
Stock-Market Value: $2.75 billion ($30 per share)
What's Happening: Carl Icahn has offered to acquire the company for $32.50 per share.
Key Numbers:
9.45%: the percentage of common shares currently owned by Icahn
25%: the percentage of shares required to be tendered for Icahn to extend the offer and seek proxies to elect his slate of nominees at the next annual meeting
40.1%: the percentage of shares required to be tendered for Icahn to demand the acceleration of the annual meeting so that the tender offer can close quickly
Dec. 3, 2012: expiration date of the tender offer
January 2013: expected month of the next annual meeting
Behind the Scenes: While many believe that Carl Icahn makes these offers to put the company in play and is not a serious buyer, he often makes better returns on companies he acquires, fixes, and grows than on public-company activism. In May 2012 he spent $1.7 billion to acquire 65% of CVR Energy for $30 per share in a tender offer that brought his ownership to 80%. The stock is now trading at $38.25 per share.
In the Oshkosh situation, there are no financing or due-diligence conditions; the offer is subject only to the election of Icahn's nominees to the board. If these nominees are elected or appointed to the board, Icahn expects that the new board will remove certain Wisconsin legal impediments to the completion of the offer and spin off the company's JLG business to the post-tender-offer shareholders.

I have a function that has a constructor within it. It creates a new object and returns it:
function car() {
function Car() {}
return new Car();
As a result uglify renames Car to some letter and when this returns it looks like the object name is just some letter. In chrome for instance it will say the type of the object is "t".
Is there a way to tell uglify to preserve some function's name?

It seems it took the arrival in Jerusalem of the organized American Jewish community – which brings its landmark General Assembly to Israel only once every five years – for opposing forces in the Women of the Wall controversy to sit in the same room.

Tuesday Service Plays
Re: Tuesday Service Plays
Oscarxena Sports
Milwaukee/St. Louis Under 8 +1.09 (4 Unit Play)
This key series will start tonight in St. Louis and for some reason the total is climbing and this appears to be a bargain in my book. Make no mistake about it that this series is as close to a playoff series as you can get and I expect both starting pitchers to be focused here for this contest. Ben Sheets for the Brewers is still one of the the best pitchers in the NL and although he has been struggling of late in games started against the Cardinals in his career he has went 16-7 to the Under. I expect Sheets to pitch a very good game here tonight against the Cardinals. On the bump for the Cardinals is Todd Wellemeyer who has started twice against the Brewers with both games going Under the total. Wellemeyer has also been hot lately going 3-0 in his last three starts and recording a 2.48 ERA in his last six starts. I expect a playoff atmosphere here tonight and a low scoring game between these two clubs.
Re: Tuesday Service Plays
I'm laying the price with the NEW YORK YANKEES. This matchup was originally supposed to be between Andy Pettite and Josh Beckett. However, Beckett will miss the series, the last of the year between these teams here at Yankee Stadium, due to continued numbness and tingling in his pitching arm. That means that Tim Wakefield will come off the disabled list, to make his first start since August 6th. I expect the Wakefield/Pettitte matchup to give the Yankees a significant advantage. For starters, we can't expect Wakefield to be 100% when making his first start in nearly three weeks. Even when healthy, Wakefield has had trouble earning victories on the road. At home, he's 5-3. On the road, he's just 2-5. In fact, if we look back as far as last September, we find that Boston is just 4-12 the last 16 times that Wakefield started on the road. Despite a couple recent losses, the Yankees are still a solid 6-3 the last nine times that Pettitte started here at Yankee Stadium. Pettitte allowed 0 runs in three of those nine starts and three earned runs or less in six of the games. Pettitte won his last start, allowing one run through seven innings at KC. That marked the third straight time he has allowed three earned runs or less, while lasting a minimum of seven complete innings in each of those starts. Pettitte defeated Boston back on 7/26. That was also against Wakefield and the Yankees won by a score of 10-3. Including that game, the Yankees are 5-1 his last six starts against the Red Sox and 14-6 his last 20 starts against them. Conversely, the Red Sox are 0-6 the last six times that Wakefield started against the Yankees and 2-10 the last 12 times he started against them. Overall, Wakefield is 9-17 with a 5.14 ERA vs. the Yankees while Pettitte is 16-7 with a 3.54 ERA against Boston. While the Red Sox still have the better overall record, that's been due to their exceptional play at Fenway. On the road, they're just 32-37. The Yankees, on the other hand, are 38-27 at home. The Yankees bullpen has a combined 3.65 ERA (1.167 WHIP) at home. The Red Sox bullpen has a combined mark of 4.20 (1.298 WHIP) on the road. Note that the Yankees have owned the Red Sox here over the past 80+ years. In addition to the advantages, the Yankees are really getting into 'must win' territory. That doesn't generally mean much for most teams but these are still the Yankees. Note that New York just scored 22 runs in sweeping three games vs. Baltimore. Pettitte was quoted as saying: "I feel like it's a must-win series. I don't necessarily feel like we need to sweep them, but I feel like we need to win the series." Look for him to lead the way, as the Yankees grab the opener. *AL GOM
I'm playing on the Cubs and Pirates to finish UNDER the total. Yesterday's series opener resulted in a high-scoring contest but I expect to see a well-pitched affair this evening. Chicago starter Carlos Zambrano had suffered rare back to back rough starts. However, he's still an excellent pitcher and he showed that last time out, shaking off the two bad outings by going seven complete innings and allowing only a single run. Zambrano earned the victory as the Cubs knocked off the Reds by a score of 3-2. Now, he'll have the luxury of pitching in a park where he has enjoyed plenty of success. In 11 starts here at PNC Park, Zambrano is 6-1 with a 3.47 ERA. He'll also face a lineup which isn't nearly as potent as it was earlier in the season. The Pirates have seen the UNDER go 13-5-1 their last 19 games. During that 19-game stretch they've averaged a mere 2.79 runs per game, scoring just 53 combined runs. Note that they haven't scored more than five runs in any of their past 13 games. Snell goes for the Pirates. While he's had some trouble on the road, he's been solid at home all season. In 11 starts here, Snell has a respectable 3.92 ERA while seeing the UNDER go 7-4. He's also been extremely sharp lately. Last time out, he held the Cardinals to just four hits through seven scoreless innings. That gave him a 2.37 ERA his last three starts, all of which fell below the total. Snell and Zambrano have faced each other once previously here in Pittsburgh. That came last September. The over/under line was eight and the Cubs won by a score of 5-1. Look for tonight's final score to also be lower-scoring than expected with the UNDER improving to 10-5 in Snell's last 15 starts here. *Annihilator

Apple Headquarters Budget Balloons to $5 Billion (Report)
The budget for Apple's new four-story space ship-style campus, which Steve Jobs envisioned as "the best office building in the world," has ballooned from $3 billion to almost $5 billion, Bloomberg Businessweek reports.
In that estimation, the Cupertino, Calif., complex, dubbed Campus 2, would outspend the project to rebuild the World Trade Center, which is costing $3.9 billion. Apple CEO Tim Cook has delayed the move-in date from 2015 to 2016; the company will begin to raze some 26 buildings on the grounds in June.
According to the magazine, which cites three sources familiar with the Apple endeavor, the postponement is partly because the company is working with the architecture firm Foster + Partners to trim $1 billion off the budget before breaking ground. In 2010, Jobs hired the firm, which revamped the Hearst Tower in New York City, and had ambitious and costly plans for the project including the addition of 6,000 new trees and 40-feet, floor-to-ceiling concave glass panes from Germany.
Plans reveal underground roads and parking garages, as well as the planting of 15 acres of California grassland and 309 species of trees with apricot, olive and apple orchards adding to the scenery in the courtyard inside the space ring.
"We have a shot at building the best office building in the world," Jobs said during a Cupertino City Council meeting in 2011. "I really do think that architecture students will come here to see it."

Title: Yucca filamentosa suffering from damp feet in Houston
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:Last year, I planted three enormous and gorgeous Yucca Filamentosa in my backyard. Two are thriving but the third started turning yellow then brown from the bottom up after a few weeks of rains. Since the very top was showing new growth, I thought that maybe I could save this 6 foot wide behemoth. After some research, I decided that it was suffering root rot so I dug it up out of the ground, then I rinsed off all the dirt and started feeling around the root ball until i felt mushy stuff. I cut away a huge portion of the roots in the middle of the root ball. I then trimmed away all the yellow and brown leaves, leaving a rather long bare trunk ( about 15 inches worth) and the still-green crown. Finally, I repotted the remaining plant in fresh soil mixed with some sand. I haven't seen anymore yellowing since. Is there anything more I can do to save this plant?
Sounds like the only additional help you could give all 3 of your Yucca filamentosa (Adam's needle) would be to get in your time machine, go back and plant them differently, with good drainage arranged for in advance. No time machine? These plants are tough and with some more attention to keeping the roots from getting so wet, should do just fine.
The real diagnosis here is transplant shock. You took 3 mature plants, the species of which is usually more fitted to deserts, and planted them, when they were already mature, in wet soil. Yuccas are, however, uniquely suited to this kind of mistake, because they propagate with great determination. In fact, once you have a yucca, you HAVE it, if you know what I mean. You can dig a yucca root completely out and throw it away, and in a few months you will have little plantlets coming up in a circle around the location of the original root. They can propagate from seeds, if there are yucca moths in the neighborhood to pollinate them, but they aggressively reproduce from even the smallest scraps of root.
In future, if you wish to plant more, for instance, offshoots of the existing plants, prepare the hole to be more desert-like. You can't do much about the rain (and in Austin we can't seem to do much about the lack of it) but you can make sure that the water that hits the soil around the plant drains away quickly. The use of sand in the new hole was good, adding some decomposed granite would help even more. But starting out with the right kind of hole and amendments is the best plan of all.
Be sure and follow this plant link Yucca filamentosa (Adam's needle) to our webpage on the plant for more information. In addition, here is an excellent article on How to Plant a Yucca Plant. And, finally, from Floridata where it's usually too wet, too, here is an article on Yucca filamentosa.

Track is more or less flawless in terms of mixing. It's also a pretty damn solid song. So 2 for 2 there. Only thing I'm missing is a bit more dynamic songstructure. Almost all the different parts feels really loud. Now in most cases that's pretty much a necessity, but it think you're missing out on alot of potential suspense. Except from that I'm not crazy about that noise sound that seems to accentuate the bass at around 01:57 and so on. Anyways it's a really solid track. You should be happy with yourself on this one :D
Thanks for the review dude! And yes! You are very right haha. There is hardly any dynamic at the drop because I fuck up my mixes by boosting every sounds to it's maximum. that's the disadvantage of having headphones alone. Need more volume lol x)

Rendering shows planned new stage at Park Square in St. Paul / Provided by Park Square Theatre
Park Square Theatre is on to the next thing — the Next Stage. Over a cup of coffee in his St. Paul office Tuesday, artistic director Richard Cook demonstrated again why he's one of the very best theater administrators in the Twin Cities. Cook's organization will open a second stage in the historic Hamm Building in the fall of 2011. Next Stage will be a 142-seat semi-thrust stage carved out of currently underused basement space. The $4.2 million project (Development director Michael-jon Pease says they've raised $1.3 million) will mean that Park Square can produce 18 shows a year, and if Cook's projections hold up, raise annual audience figures to 86,000.
Cook has methodically and smartly strengthened his company in the past few years, securing high-profile shows and noticeably beefing up his acting talent. The investment has paid off. Since the start of the fall season, Park Square's numbers are up 15 percent over a year ago. The second stage means Park Square will employ more actors, stage twice as many plays and reach about 30,000 more patrons. At the same time, the main 344-seat auditorium will get a needed buff and fluff.
The new stage construction is budgeted at $1.5 million. Dressing rooms would sit right next to the current quarters and create something of a hub. Surprising for a basement, the ceilings hit 15 feet (once you remove the drop panels) and the room has an open, almost airy feel. Surrounding the seating would be a gallery space with tables and chairs.
Rendering shows planned new stage at Park Square in St. Paul / Provided by Park Square Theatre
When both theaters are up and running, Cook will have more productions each year than any theater other than the Guthrie and Children's Theatre Company. As part of his initial plan, he's looking for small theater producers to be part of project — not so much as rentals but in a closer working relationship for a few years. He's sent out feelers to nearly two dozen companies and has received interest from more than a handful.
As for programming, Cook said Park Square would always endeavor to have a populist show and something more adventurous going on at the same time. That does not necessarily mean "new stuff" downstairs and "classic stuff" upstairs. For example, if "God of Carnage," the hot Broadway comedy, were to come available, that would likely go in the bigger auditorium, while downstairs, audiences might get an intimate "Three Sisters," seeing Chekhov in a way that is pretty rare. On the other hand, you might get a big Shakespeare upstairs and an edgier work downstairs.
Plus, Cook believes he can book student groups into both places; those matinees are a lifeblood.

Recent Trafalgar Village Reviews
Excellent home away from home!!!
This house was an excellent place for our week visiting Florida!!! Spacious and plenty of bedrooms for our group!!! Just the right distance away from the hustle and bussle of the main commercial roadway. Close to local super market! The heated pool and spa were to die for!! We used them everyday!!!! The amount of towels/ wash cloths and kitchen dishes/ utilensils were perfect!!! Loved not having to pack all of those things! Not to mention bringing clothes and washing them right from the comfort of the house! We can't wait to book again for our next trip to Disney!!!!!!! Thanks again!
I must say that this 6 bedroom / 5bath home was the perfect place for my family as well as the other two families that join us on our vacation. This home was clean(just like the pictures shown) upon arrival, spacious, huge patio to hang out on & the game room was the idea place for all the children we had with us. I must say that the nieghbor hood is clean & quiet(relaxed) day or nigt, trash comes everyday of the week except sunday. All questions and concerns that I had before taking my vacation, Sean was very helpful by answering them all. From a scale 1-10, I would rate this as an 10 meaning I would recommend not only my relatives and friends, but who ever is looking forward to taking a nice vacation with family & friends. I would recommend that the renters go to all nearby activities, attractions and restaurants. Thanks Sean, I am so looking forward to the upcoming year 2012...
Great Vacation House
We had a wonderful time at this house and really enjoyed our week stay here. The house was very clean and very nicely decorated. I loved the decor and we felt like everything was made perfect for our visit. It was a great house for my husband and our 2 children. They loved the bedrooms with Mickey and Minnie Mouse decor. The kids had so much fun in the pool and I felt safe with the enclosure around it so they could only enter when we were supervising. The hot tub was very relaxing and having our own pool and hot tub was much more private than a hotel. The kitchen was nice and the kids liked eating at the breakfast bar too. The house was in an easy location to get to Disney World and Sea World and any attraction. The property manager was very helpful and very easy to communicate with via mobile or text. The owner has also been great with e-mail and answering any questions too.Trafalgar Village was a nice community and the club house was great. We would love to go back as the only bad part was having to leave!

Copper Sun
Set in the 18th century, Copper Sun tells the story of two protagonists, Amari and Polly. Amari is a fifteen-year-old Ashanti girl living in her village happily awaiting her marriage to Besa. Life is good in their village until one day slave traders invade the village killing much of Amari's tribe. The survivors are shackled and taken to Cape Coast where they are branded and forced into a slave boat which is headed to the Carolinas. Once there, Amari is sold to a plantation owner and given to his son Clay as his sixteenth birthday present.
It is on the plantation that Amari meets Polly, an indentured servant. The girls become involved in a horrible act of cruelty which affords them the opportunity to flee the Carolina plantation and head toward Florida where they dream of being free.
This book is dedicated to Draper's grandfather and grandmother, Estelle. In Draper's research of Copper Sun, she actually traveled to the slave castles in Ghana several years ago. Copper Sun is not an easy book to read—many of the passages are heart wrenching and emotionally draining. Yet Copper Sun is a story that must be told. Draper has written a truly moving story—a page turner indeed! Sharon Draper's Copper Sun is the winner of the 2007 Coretta Scott King Award.

Please help me convert my double sided fireplace to gas
clawdiaNovember 21, 2007
I have a 1977 home with a double fireplace that is see through from the living room into the dining room. How can I convert this to gas? It seems like it is impossible to do this and keep the see thru feature.
Can I just have gas logs installed? If yes- vented or unvented? I also read about some that are partially vented?? I am in King County in Washington state.
Thank you! Claudia
