Helen M. Salzberg Artist in Residence Program
The Helen M. Salzberg Artist in Residence Program funds two working residencies for artists each academic year at the Jaffe Center for Book Arts, in the fall and spring semesters. Artists working in the book arts (and other media, too, as long as the creative project can be thought of as book arts related) are encouraged to apply for this prestigious and competitive award. We accept applications from artists from all over the world.
Poet and artist Helen M. Salzberg established the Salzberg AIR Program in 2011. Income from this endowed fund enables artists working in the book arts to come to the Jaffe Center on a semester basis to work and teach at the center. While here, the artist will produce a creative project using JCBA studios and also teach a workshop for FAU students and the general public and mentor FAU students as his or her schedule allows. The Salzberg AIR Program gives our students the opportunity to work alongside highly talented and creative book artists.
The next Salzberg Artist in Residence for which we will be
accepting applications is Fall 2015. The residency period is for the Fall
Semester, which runs mid August through early December. AIRs are not
required to be at the Jaffe Center for Book Arts for the duration of the
semester. However, we do require each resident to complete his or her
creative project, teach the resident's workshop, and vacate the studios by
the end of the semester. The Fall 2015 Salzberg AIR will receive a stipend
of $3,000. A call for applications will be announced through the JCBA email
announcement list, JCBA social media outlets, the Book Arts Discussion List,
and the Letterpress Discussion List by April 30, 2015.

(Editor's note: Rob Bradford spoke to Carl Crawford in September about the possibility of signing with the Red Sox in the offseason.)
The recruiting stories still amuse Carl Crawford.
The most recent one, of course, came during the 2010 All-Star Game festivities, when Angels outfielder Torii Hunter made sure his locker was next to that of the Tampa Bay outfielder. Hunter is no dummy. He is contractually obligated to be in Anaheim through 2012, so why not have Crawford come along for the ride?
Going back, there was the visit to the University of Nebraska as a high school senior. Crawford, a three-sport standout from the Houston area, was being pursued by the Huskers to become their next option quarterback.
"I went on my recruiting trip to Nebraska and it was four or five o'clock in the morning and we were still out," said Crawford, who was being shown around by current NFL running back Correll Buckhalter. "I was still in high school and I wasn't used to that. Then I realized these guys do this all the time. I was nervous and scared. I committed the next day."
Now it might be the Red Sox' turn.
With an opportunity to delve into free agency waiting less than two months down the road, Crawford realizes it might be coming. So, with that in mind, what can these Sox do to trump all the others?
"I don't know," Crawford said while sitting in the Fenway Park visitors dugout during the Rays most recent trip through town. As he talks the 29-year-old giggles, busting out a smile he seemingly has no problem wearing the majority of his days.
"I'm really looking forward to everything. I've been looking forward to the whole year, absorbing the whole experience because it's going to be a year to remember."
Crawford figures to become the most heavily recruited free agent this coming offseason, carrying a skill-set, athleticism, work ethic and history of production unmatched among the players figured to be available in the '10 open market.
Whichever team is going to lock up the outfielder better be ready to commit to one of baseball's heftiest investments, significantly more than the $10 million Crawford is making this season.
So, the question is: Should the Red Sox jump in head-first when it comes to attempting to lock up Crawford as their next left fielder?
A strong case can be made.
To start with, Crawford's history has been consistent and strong. There has been very little room for interpretation throughout his nine-year big league career, hitting between .296 and .315 in all but one of his last seven seasons.
His OPS has been upwards of .800 in five of the last six years, while averaging 13 homers and 54 steals per 162 games throughout his career.
It doesn't also hurt that Crawford has had solid success against the Red Sox, dating back to a walk-off home run in Theo Epstein's first game as a general manager back in 2003. Against the Sox, the left fielder is a .300 hitter with 12 homers and 62 stolen bases in 66 attempts over 144 games.
Fenway Park might not be the most conducive to his swing -- with the majority of Crawford's power being distributed to right field -- but a .275 batting average with four homers and 26 steals in 27 chances over 76 games isn't too shabby.
The reality is that while it might be fun to get the Jumbotron treatment this most recent time through Fenway, Crawford already has his thoughts pretty well organized.
While some players might use each series as a resource for what lies ahead (Jason Bay admitted to asking teammates about what it was like to play in different cities during his final months with the Red Sox), the outfielder is content in relying on the information he has has gathered since entering the majors in 2002.
"I've been everywhere for so long, I pretty much know every place," Crawford said. "The only time you really think about it is at night when you have down time. But you really don't have to think about it that much because you know something is going to happen."
As assuring as Crawford's achievements have been to this point, teams like the Red Sox would be more concerned with what he is going to do.
With that in mind, the question has to be asked of Crawford: Do you think your next five years will be better than your last five?
"That's what I would like to think," he said. "I'm just starting to learn. My game was a lot of times hitting the ball in play and trying to run. Now I've got a feel on how to see the ball and I'm driving it better. I figure if I didn't have to steal 50 bases I would actually be a better hitter. I would have more strength in my legs to hit all year long, because that wears down over the course of the year."
And evidently this year -- which has Crawford carrying a .302 batting average along with 43 steals and 15 homers -- is no different.
"It's every year. Every year," Crawford said. "I feel like if I didn't have to run as much my offense would be better."
The numbers support Crawford's claim that he is maturing as a hitter. He is just six extra-base hits shy of reaching his career-best (63), while seeing more pitches per plate appearance (3.77) that at any time during his tenure with the Rays.
So could Crawford, who has spent the majority of his time hitting second, sometimes manning the leadoff and No. 3 spots, evolve into a middle-of-the-order type, not having to be so identified with his legs?
"It's possible, but you never know how it works," he said. "I'm always working on my swing, so it's a possibility. With time you experience more. You understand more. You pay attention more. You kind of study things a little better. The more important thing is that you just understand what is going on a little better.
"If I tried to run every time I got on, I could steal 70 or 80 bases, easy. But as I've gotten older I've realized you don't have to do that because you can be just as effective getting a big lead and scaring a pitcher. They get so afraid when I get on. Why steal and let them relax and have them be like, 'OK, he stole now I can relax.' I want them to be worried all the time. I only steal when our team needs a bag. It was fun to steal every time I got on, but know I try and be a little smarter with everything I do."
There are reasons for the Red Sox not to make Crawford a priority this offseason, starting with the amount of money it will take to secure his services. There also might be concerns that on a team that could be starved for a presence against left-handed pitching, especially if Victor Martinez and Adrian Beltre depart, getting another lefty hitter might not be the way to go. (Although Crawford did actually hit .318 against southpaws in '07.)
But there is also potentially a really solid fit, as well.
The Red Sox still need a left fielder for the coming years, with top prospect Ryan Kalish thought to be next in line for the right field job once J.D. Drew's contract expires following next season. And the free agent market for outfielders is thought to be uninspiring following the 2011 season, certainly not possessing the kind of presence Crawford, Jayson Werth, and Adam Dunn figure to bring this time around.
And the Sox do figure to have some money in the next few years to invest in a lineup anchor, such as Crawford.
Some of the financial allocation could very well go to Beltre, or Martinez in multi-year deals. But Mike Lowell's $12 million comes off the books after this season, as could David Ortiz' $12.5 million if the Sox don't pick up his option. Then there is Drew's $14 million after next year.
At the very least, a phone call to Crawford's agents at Legacy Sports Group will be made by the Red Sox. After that is where the real debate begins.
"It really hasn't been hard at all and that's mainly because we've been winning," Crawford said of performing in a contract year. "That took a lot of pressure off me so my mind doesn't have to drift and I can just think about playing the games.
"Other guys have said there would begged days and bad days. Fortunately for me there's been more good days. I wasn't really worried about it. Whatever happens is going to happen. I prepared myself for the season so I was ready for whatever was going to come my way."
Greg and Chris talk with Mike Reiss from ESPN Boston in hour 2 of NFL Sunday to discuss a variety of offseason happenings with the Pats and throughout the league. Greg and Chris also get into the NFL Draft and where Mariota and Winston will go.
Mike Reiss calls the guys to talk about the offseason news for the Pats. He talks about the Pats/Jets tampoering fiasco, free agency, where he sees Ridley and Connolly ending up, if the Patriots would be interested in Reggie Wayne and more.

Doug French reviews 'Testament of James'8:14 pm January 24th, 2015
Economist, banker and former head of the Ludwig von Mises Institute Doug French offers his take on "The Testament of James" at http://douglasfrench.liberty.me/2015/01/22/book-review-the-testament-of-james/ .
In part, Doug reports: "Peddling used books has a treasure hunt side that is particularly interesting for us bibliophiles and is not only made part of Testament's plotline, but is included in many of book's business anecdotes.
"The treasure in question is not an autographed copy of Wolfman Jack's Have Mercy!, but an ancient manuscript written (or not) by James the Just, oldest brother of Jesus of Nazareth. Shadowy characters aplenty descend upon Books on Benefit after its manager dies under curious circumstances.

SEATTLE -- It's time to start turning over this team.
What Jake Peavy, A.J. Pierzynski and a few others did Tuesday night was offer the punctuation for these Red Sox. Enough is enough. This isn't working. This isn't going to work this way.
Yes, typically one might suggest making judgments after an 8-2 loss to the Mariners is ripe for reactionary proclamations. But even the most patient of baseball lifers can look at the Red Sox' first 78 games and come to the conclusion that Plan A should be thrown out the window. Change hardly guarantees a change of fortune, but the ultimate defeat for this team will come with an acceptance heading into the season's second half.
Red Sox manager John Farrell nailed it prior to Tuesday's contest, saying, "This is still a bottom-line game." Peavy is a gamer. He's a great clubhouse guy, with a fantastic pedigree. Pierzynski offers the potential of some much-needed offense, while having had lived the life of a winning baseball player.
None of it matters right now. It's time to take a step in another direction.
The organization is well aware of its situation. This is why the team is dug in on Rubby De La Rosa living the life of a major league starter for most likely the remainder of the season. This isn't about potential, this is about production, and De La Rosa has produced in the form of allowing one run in 14 innings over his last two starts.
The same can be said for Brandon Workman, who will start Friday in New York. He has started eight times as a major leaguer and totaled a 2.91 ERA, never allowing more than three runs. That deserves additional looks.
These two are the examples of what the Red Sox should be embracing, just like they gave Brock Holt a great big hug and haven't let go. It's time to find out what works, not grasp at what might possibly pan out.
Immediately after Tuesday night's loss, the Red Sox had no plans for Peavy. They were more worried about finding out a solution to getting Clay Buchholz on the roster for his Wednesday's start. But after watching Peavy fail to garner a win for an 11th straight time -- totaling a 6.38 ERA over his last nine starts -- the Sox know something has to be done.
They've had to make these decisions before. Remember John Smoltz? Yes, he was just about 10 years older than Peavy is now when he was released by the Red Sox in 2009, but, according to those who were there, the former Brave actually had better stuff than what Peavy currently is putting on display. The righty is living in the high 80s, with a hope that the velocity can still play out over the plate. Not a good combination.
And when Smoltz made his final start for the Red Sox in '09, that was a good ball club, sitting 17 games over .500. (The same cannot be said for this group right now.) He would go on to pitch decently for seven starts in the National League for St. Louis, notching a 4.26 ERA. The same can happen for Peavy.
Designating Peavy for assignment seems like an extreme move considering what he produced in the season's first month. But the greater good has to be taken into account, and right now that is defined by the presence of Workman and De La Rosa in the starting rotation. Farrell made mention of a groin issue Peavy was dealing with, although the pitcher downplayed it. That could be an answer to keep the pitcher around as a fail-safe while riding the hot hands of the two youngsters. It's also not out of the realm of possibility a National League club shows interest in the veteran presence of the pitcher.
Whatever the solution, it's impossible to make the case for allowing the bottom line of Workman and/or De La Rosa to be put on hold in favor of a pitcher struggling to the level of Peavy.
Then there is Pierzynski.
The catcher once again got a bit snippy when answering for his performance Tuesday night. No matter. And when he insists that "Somebody is going to pay" for his current slump (1-for-18 on the road trip), maybe he's right. But when you have a catcher so defensively challenged, along with the maddening approach that has allowed him to almost impossibly see just 44 pitches in 20 plate appearances on this swing, it isn't healthy for a team in the state the Red Sox find themselves.
Unlike Peavy, there is no logical replacement for Pierzynski, who is counted on to be one of the rare offensive threats in this lineup. But what the next guy up -- Christian Vazquez -- could do is offer energy, while excelling at one part of the game (defense) to a level few on the roster can approach. That would be healthy for this club.
There are others on the radar when exploring alternatives. The Red Sox have taken their guidance of Jackie Bradley to a new level of late, hoping the outfielder might turn the corner. He took a step in the right direction Tuesday, coming away with two hits, including one on which he pulled a high fastball. ( For what it's worth, Mookie Betts is not expected to be called up for the New York series.)
Other than that? Edward Mujica has a two-year contract. Stephen Drew is riding out a most unique scenario that screams for the kind of patience few want the Red Sox to exhibit. And players like Dustin Pedroia and Xander Bogaerts are dug in as foundation pieces.
Not easy decisions, but necessary ones. It's about that time.

Out of control Rubber Tree...
At work, I have a Rubber Tree that is out of control (see picture bellow).
I understand that I have to prune it but I don't know where to start. Where should I cut? How do I stop the 'bleeding?' What should I do with the pruned branches?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Rubber trees are amazingly easy to grow and they respond very well to ever hard prunes. Just cut the plant back to whatever lenth and style you find best. You'll have to remember that the plants you cut will grow back from the next node down, so if you want a more orderly plant, anytime you see a brach about a foot or more out of wack, just cut it back. Rubber trees will withstand it, and seeing how its about to slow down for winter, the growth will start up next spring. If you want to have more rubber trees just take any of the branches you cut, cut the lower leaves off, keep any aerial roots the plant may have, and dip the cut end in a rooting hormone with a fungicide, then stick them in an evenly moist soil. The best cuttings are a little over a foot long and are younger braches, although woody ones will root it just takes a while.
Hi Mon,
This is the wrong time of year to do this, I think it'd be best to wait 'til next Spring.
If Tapla Al (our resident Ficus Master) were around, I suspect he'd say June would ideal. If you do some searches around here on pruning Ficus (this one in particular is Ficus elastica) you may find threads where he suggests June is optimum. I believe we had such discussion w/in the last year (I particularly remember as I too have a Ficus which I'd like to cut back & made a mental note for next June).
From personal experience of mature rubber trees in a heated greenhouse, they'll respond just fine to being trimmed anytime of year. During the summer however, they do bounce back from the trim much faster, and the rooting of cuttings can only take a month insted of two or three...I'm not a ficus expert, just a personal feeling and I do know that there are people with decades of experience, and if they say wait until June then it would probably be best to wait til June. Could you possiably rotate the plant around just so the leaves aren't touching the glass? You might be able to find a useable angle that still fits in the avaiable space.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions.
To Toni: the window is facing North (close to the Pacific coast).
I will try to rotate the plant. I might be able to place the overgrown branches agains the wall next to the window. These branches are so long that they need support.
Per your suggestions, I will wait until next June for a 'deep' pruning. I might have to do a 'light' pruning on the longest branches so that they don't bump against the ceiling.

Larry Wall, the Guru of Perl
Joyous to read
Above photograph is really good :-))
Explanation of 'how Perl is postmodern language' is tremendous.
Hats off to Larry's brilliancy...
I agree with webapp
Larry made great contributions for the starting of http://www.web-app.net WebAPP CMS Perl Portal, he deserves lots of thanks!
A very down-to-earth
A very down-to-earth interview from a person who developed such a dynamic programming language - Perl! He admits that Perl was never designed to be perfect multivariate testing as he believes that there is no such organism that can be said to be perfect! He believes that we have to keep changing and Perl has been designed for change right from the beginning! He says that they do make changes for Perl by adding an extension module which maintains a complete compatibility with older Perl scripts! He must be real proud that his Perl is being by such organizations like National Security Agency and in Wall Street!! No small feat!!
Thank Goodness for Larry Wall ...
Without Larry, there probably would have been no Perl, and without Perl, there never would have been WebAPP! Plus a lot of other neat scripts of course... So many thanks to Larry Wall.
I've just noticed that the
I've just noticed that the interview dates back to 1999.
Waiting for new LJ Interview with Larry :)
I am a software testing engineer . I really enjoyed reading this article. If I had got a chance to interview Larry I would have asked one question related to my profession."How is Perl gonna be helpfull in software testing ? " . We all know how good a development language it is.
Thank you
Great for testing too
It is amazing what a long run Perl has had as a top tier programming language. Certainly many companies find it useful for both automated testing and code coverage in addition to the development uses previously mentioned.

Dr. Helga Wall-Apelt's Personal Asian Collection was approximately 60 years in the making. She is the daughter of a former prominent German physician and she, together with her father, escaped the Holocaust during World War II. After this traumatic experience, Dr. Wall-Apelt found great solace in the practice of meditation and his involvement in the Asian culture. His admiration, love and passion for the culture and their artistic items transmitted to his daughter, who while in medical school, began collecting Asian items.

Use baby monitor for pet?
lov2gardenFebruary 26, 2010
It's been years since I had babies or monitors and I know they've vastly improved. I was wondering if you think I could use one at my back door so I can hear when my kitty wants to come inside. They aren't very weatherproof are they? I was hoping I could mount one on the door frame somehow and leave it there. Are any of the bases wall mountable?
I know it sounds crazy but it would save me from checking the window every 10 minutes!
Sorry to bother you busy moms with this but you ARE the experts on baby monitors! By the way, the only part of my life I would gladly relive is the part you are in now :)
