Electron precipitation from the Earth's inner magnetosphere transmits solar variability to the Earth's upper atmosphere and may affect surface level climate. Here we conduct a superposed epoch analysis of energetic electrons observed by the NOAA POES spacecraft during 42 high-speed solar wind stream (HSS) driven geomagnetic storms to determine the temporal evolution and global distribution of the precipitating flux. The flux of trapped and precipitating E > 30 keV electrons increases immediately following storm onset and remains elevated during the passage of the HSS. In contrast, the trapped and precipitating relativistic electrons (E > 1 MeV) drop out following storm onset and subsequently increase during the recovery phase to levels which eventually exceed the prestorm levels. There is no evidence for enhanced precipitation of relativistic electrons during the MeV flux drop out, suggesting that flux drop outs during the main phase of HSS-driven storms are not due to precipitation to the atmosphere. On average, the flux of precipitating E > 30 keV electrons is enhanced by a factor of similar to 10 during the passage of the high-speed stream at all geographic longitudes. In contrast, the precipitating relativistic electron count rate is observed to peak in the region poleward of the South Atlantic Anomaly. During the passage of the high-speed stream, the flux of precipitating E > 30 keV electrons peaks in the region from 2100 to 1200 magnetic local time at low L (4 < L < 7) and in the prenoon sector at high L (7 < L < 9), suggesting that chorus waves are responsible for the precipitation of E > 30 keV electrons in both regions.

Savings Secrets: 5 Halloween "tricks" for the best costume at the party!
I used to not be a big fan of Halloween. I mean, what's fun about having my kids get a big sugar-induced-coma for several days out of the year? Well I've quickly learned how to avoid that by stocking up on fun, "healthier" sweets, and we have a blast dressing up.
Yes, I go all out with my kids, because let's face it – Mom having fun with the costume bliss is pure fun for the kids and for Mom!
There's no reason the adults can't have fun still. Just a kid's holiday? Who says? I'm ready to dress up right along with them! Here are some tips that I use to come up with my own costumes.
1. Go for an internet meme. How fun would it be to dress up as the "Grumpy Cat or "Success Kid"? People don't expect you to show up as an internet meme, so it's always a fun conversation costume.
2. Pick a theme to narrow down your choices. This is especially good to do if you've got quite a few parties to go to. Go with a British theme or Sci-Fi theme for the season. One day you could go as Captain Kirk, while you go as Luke Skywalker on another day. And ladies, you could always go with that Downton Abbey or Pride & Prejudice dress you've been dying to wear at least once!
3. Mix it up by combining a couple of different ideas into your own costume. This especially makes it easy to find your outfit at the local Goodwill. For one party, I decided to go as Hipster Ariel, who's also a Doctor Who companion (hence the fez on my head as seen above). The costume was super easy and inexpensive to throw together.
4. Pick a job that would be fun to embrace for one evening. Here are a couple of ideas: cattle farmer, milk man, news anchor, police officer, baseball player, airline pilot, or mechanic.
5. Pick your favorite TV character. You really can never go wrong with picking your favorite TV character. And even going oldschool can be really fun. How about dressing up as Screech from Saved by the Bell, or Kimmy Gibbler from Full House? Steve Urkel would even be awesome, because people would think you dressed up as a Hipster! Yesterday's beloved nerd is today's Hipster, right?
With just a little creativity, you can have the most fun and unique costume this year! I'm interested to hear some of your suggestions for a great costume. Do you have any great ideas for a costume this year? Tell us about it. Oh, and be sure to also read 5 ways to get the best deal on a costume.

November 9th-10th a team of 12 peeps from the Cowdell family ran the Ragnar relay in Vegas! We had so much fun. For those who haven't heard of it, it's a 191 mile long relay that you divide up amongst your team members. Teams of 12 or 6 are allowed. Our team was divided into 2 vans and the miles are all divided up into legs, each runner running 3 times. Van 1 (holding runners 1-6 : Me, Joshie, my sis Brenna, my dad, and my cousins Robyn and John) started at the top of Mt. Charleston at 7 AM and you run round the clock until you finish at lake Las Vegas. We finished Saturday afternoon at 3 PM giving us a total race time of 31 hours, averaging around a 9:40 pace.
It was an insane weekend but so. much. fun. I think we all want to do another one. We battled no sleep, crazzzzyyy weather conditions, hills, and frigid cold, wind, and sore bodies but it was worth it. Such a blast.
It was snowing. I was in sandals. Misery! |
John passing the baton off to Robyn! Our runner #2. Go Bobm! Love the spousal sparkly skirts guys. |
At one of the exchanges. It was gorgeous out. But still freezing. |
At the exchange waiting for Robyn to come through. She passed off to my dad. These guys were still running in straight downhill their whole run. |
Dad ready to roll! |
Joshie, runner #4, ready to go! |
Dad passing the baton off to Josh. |
Josh had a real hard run too. It was flat, but it was straight on into a head wind that was really pushin all the runners back and slowing everyone down. Tough stuff! |
Brenna, runner #5, ready to roll! |
Josh handing off to Brenna. |
And, meee! Waiting for Brenna to come in. |
Handing off to Zach. Woo! This begins Van 2. |
Part of the team group shot! GO us! |
the finish line -- as our last runner came through to finish us off, we all crossed as a team. so fun! |
team shirt (front) |
team shirt (back) everyone had different color shirts |
Finished! |
Yay to be done! Josh has the medal on that they give all runners. Pretty cool. This was Josh's 4th Ragnar. |
The whole team! So proud! Everyone did so well and worked so hard. It was such fun to do this together and say we finished. Woo-hoo! Great job Team. |

Big Differences for Small Governments: Local Governments and the Takings ClauseChristopher SerkinVanderbilt Law School New York University Law Review, 2006 Brooklyn Law School, Legal Studies Paper No. 55 Abstract: This Article argues that the Fifth Amendment's Takings Clause should apply differently to local governments than to higher levels of government. The Takings Clause is at the heart an increasingly contentious property rights debate. On one side are property-rights advocates who argue for expanding government liability for takings of private property. On the other are proponents of deference to government regulation. More often than not, the terms of the debate have focused on a traditional economic account of the Takings Clause. Property-rights advocates argue that expanding the compensation requirement is necessary to force the government to internalize the costs of its actions, ensuring that regulations will occur only where benefits exceed costs. Others, however, argue that governments respond to political and not monetary costs so that a compensation requirement will not influence government decision-making in any predictable way. Public choice theorists, in particular, argue that regulations are more likely to result from special interest group rent-seeking, while costs are passed on to taxpayers generally. Where the public choice theory critique applies, compensation will not serve as a meaningful check on regulatory incentives. This Article argues that the strength of the public choice critique rises and falls with the level of government. Local governments are largely majoritarian and specifically responsive to local homeowners. Because local governments also receive most of their revenue from local property taxes, forcing local governments to compensate under the Takings Clause will, in fact, force them to internalize the costs of their actions. However, local governments' regulatory incentives are subject to their own specific distortions. Local governments are risk averse so that the prospect of a large takings judgment may over-deter them from acting. Local government regulations also tend to impose significant positive and negative externalities on neighboring communities. This Article therefore proposes (1) ratcheting down compensation for takings by local governments to account for their risk aversion, and (2) creating a form of inter-governmental liability to allow local governments to capture the positive externalities of their actions and force them to pay for the negative externalities.

Greek Life
The 160 Colorado College students in sororities and fraternities aspire to make the most of their time at CC. And they succeed. Each of CC's six brother- and sisterhoods is unique and, in its own way, each can broaden your network, build your resume, and embolden your life through the college experience.
CC's spirited Greek community opens the door for students to build lifelong connections while balancing scholarship, service, and social life. Plus, Greek life is totally manageable on the Block Plan. Greeks at CC reputably hold high academic standing, participate in a diverse array of campus organizations, and make impressive contributions to society, on-campus and off. Last year, for example, CC sororities contributed a collective 1,200+ hours of community service and raised nearly $10,000 for charity.
We're proud of our history.
We're excited about the future.
And we look forward to hearing from you.

Accord (trade union)
This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2010) |
Full name | Accord |
Members | 30,000 |
Affiliation | TUC, STUC, ICTU, Alliance for Finance |
Key people | Ged Nichols, general secretary |
Office location | Charvil, Berkshire, England |
Country | United Kingdom |
Website | www.accord-myunion.org |
Accord is a trade union for HBOS workers within the Lloyds Banking Group. It has more than 30,000 members and is affiliated to the Trades Union Congress, the Scottish Trades Union Congress and the Irish Congress of Trade Unions.
Accord can trace its origins back to 1978, when it was founded as the Halifax Building Society Staff Association (HBSSA). The HBSSA was founded by John Simmons, the then manager of the Halifax branch in Plymouth. He had concluded that staff within the Halifax Building Society were in need of trade union representation, and had begun organising in earnest in 1977. Simmons was keen to avoid the use of the word "union" because of the negative connotations associated with militant trade unions in the UK in the 1970s. Accord's headquarters, Simmons House, is named after John Simmons.
In 1978 Ernie Roberts was appointed as the first General Secretary. Branch reps were elected and Regional Committees established. From these groups a National Committee was elected, which met for the first time in August 1978. The HBSSA was formed. By the end of 1978 the HBSSA was recognised by the then Halifax Building Society "as the sole bargaining agent for its members below Executive and Regional Manager level".
In January 1979 the HBSSA was granted its Certificate of Independence. This meant that it was recognised by the Government as a bona fide trades union and was afforded the rights to which it was entitled. In 1980 the HBSSA held its first conference in Manchester. In 1983 Ernie Roberts retired, allowing David Nash to become the second General Secretary. Bill Wright was appointed Assistant General Secretary.
At the 1994 Conference delegates voted to rename the HBSSA the Independent Union of Halifax Staff (IUHS). In 1995 the Halifax Building Society merged with the Leeds Permanent Building Society. The following year the Leeds Staff Association joined the IUHS. Also in 1996, The Halifax acquired the Clerical Medical Investment Group and in 1999 announced its merger with the Bank of Scotland. The union was therefore renamed again by delegates at the 2002 conference to reflect the diversity of its membership. From this point onwards it was known as Accord.

text: What does it take to achieve personal success and feel like you are in your element? World-renowned innovator Sir Ken Robinson argues that it is not natural talent that drives personal success, but rather a delicate interplay among talent, passion, attitude, and opportunity that brings people to achieve their highest levels of success and lead lives of meaning and purpose. Based on his newly released and highly acclaimed book The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, Robinson will take you on a compelling tour of what can happen in all our lives when passion and talent meet. He draws on the personal stories of high achievers in many fields to help you understand how to enhance your creativity and innovation in both personal and professional settings.

Onondaga County sheriff deputies have arrested a Connecticut man in connection with the fatal hit and run over the weekend in the town of Salina.
Chiragkumar Patel, 28, of Southington, Conn. was charged with leaving the scene of an incident without reporting (death), a class D felony.
On April 27, Michael Mahoney, 48, of Liverpool, was riding a Trek bicycle north on Electronics Parkway around 2:40 a.m. when Patel struck Mahoney from the passenger side of his vehicle, then left the scene of the collision. Mahoney was pronounced dead at the scene by EMTs a short time later.
Patel's vehicle, a 1998 Volvo, was discovered by road patrol deputies later in the morning in the parking lot of the Norstar Apartments on Henry Clay Boulevard. Later that afternoon, detectives located Patel in the 400 block of Old Liverpool Road. Detectives transported and arrested Patel at the sheriff's office headquarters building. He was arraigned that evening in the town of Salina court and held in the Justice Center pending $200,000.00 cash or bond.
The Onondaga County Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigations Division Detectives in conjunction with the Onondaga County District Attorney's Office are continuing their investigation.

A mild Pd-catalyzed process for the borylation of primary alkyl bromides using
bis(pinacolato)diboron as a boron source tolerates a wide range of functional
groups on the alkyl bromide substrate and offers complete selectivity in the
presence of a secondary bromide. This approach has been extended to the use of
alkyl iodides and alkyl tosylates, as well as borylation reactions employing
bis(neopentyl glycolato)diboron as the boron source.

A catalyst formed in situ from NiBr2 • diglyme and a pybox ligand
accomplishes Miyaura-type borylations of unactivated tertiary, secondary, and
primary alkyl halides with diboron reagents to furnish alkylboronates. The
method exhibits good functional-group compatibility and is regiospecific.

orylation of primary and secondary alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides
with diboron proceeded in the presence of copper(I)/Xantphos as catalyst and a
stoichiometric amount of K(O-t-Bu) as base. Menthyl halides afforded the
corresponding borylation product with excellent diastereoselectivity, whereas (R)-2-bromo-5-phenylpentane
gave a racemic product.

Aliphatic, aromatic, heteroaromatic, vinyl, or allylic Grignard reagents eact
with pinacolborane at ambient temperature in tetrahydrofuran to afford the

Featured review from Felicia
view more less of this review"I love this play. It's perfect. Now don't change it." I didn't know a thing about this show ahead of time, other than that it was a musical-comedy. It turned out to be a series of vignettes about love, including the subjects of dating, romance, marriage, meeting in-laws, and being parents. All of the skits were funny, and some were also poignant and painful because of the truthfulness in them. I don't want to give away the themes of any of the vignettes (you can probably find that information elsewhere online) because I enjoyed the surprise of each one as it unfolded, but I will say I never saw a more creatively-choreographed car ride. Four actors each played a variety of parts, and all of them were excellent. I recommend this production.

NEWBERRY — After the recent success social media played in apprehending fugitives during a manhunt, the Newberry County Sheriff's Office is asking Newberry residents to sign up for Nixle.
Prior to the manhunt for four Tennessee teen fugitives, around 2,400 people had signed on to Nixle — which is a free service — to receive either email or text message alerts from the sheriff's office.
After the manhunt, membership increased to 2,884 people. For perspective, Newberry County has approximately 33,000 residents, so there is growth potential for the program.
The sheriff's office can participate in it at a much lower expense than a reverse 911 system.
"Reverse 911 is costly and is a recurring cost and includes monthly phone calls, a maintenance fee and charges for each number called," Sheriff Lee Foster said. "Over time it adds up, so we felt like Nixle was a better option for our county."
Unlike reverse 911, Nixle is a user sign-up system, so the sheriff's office needs a hand from the public.
At www.nixle.com, community members can sign up for email alerts and/or text message alerts.
The Newberry system also is used to notify about road closings, controlled burns, and widespread power outages among other things. The service is free for the public though standard data and messaging rates do apply in terms of the text messages. The sheriff's office opted out of advanced features such as video messaging to keep costs down.
Newberry enthusiasts or Newberry natives who have moved away can use the sheriff office address at 520 Wilson Road, Newberry SC 29108 to request Nixle alerts from the area to stay in the know.
The vice versa is true for Newberry residents, who can input an address to request Nixle reports from any police agency nationwide who uses Nixle.
"With Nixle, the community receives the same updates as the media receives via press release," Foster said."We try to get alerts out as quickly as we possibly can and the system is linked to Facebook and Twitter. Sometimes if we are out in the field, like we were at Keitt's Crossroads, it can be hard to get a data stream due to signal reception. In those instances we send a deputy back to the office to input a Nixle alert."
Once a month the sheriff's office posts to Facebook encouraging community members to join Nixle. Deputies also explain about Nixle when they speak to civic groups or do community presentations.
Nixle members also can opt in for severe weather alerts at www.nixle.com.

[From book introduction] In Chapter 11, Nigel Edley and Margaret Wetherell identify a particular challenge for discursive psychology, that is, to fruitfully combine analytical principles from both branches – in the face of critics who maintain that macro-analysis of discourse patterns works at the expense of micro-analysis of the interactional context of talk (Wooffitt, 2005). They claim that an expanded and integrative discursive psychology that assumes a broad understanding of constructionism and aims to work across both the micro and the macro would in principle combine a focus on 'how speakers construct (and use) gender categories and how they are constructed – as gendered beings – by those very categories'.

So this spring I had some fun teaching a class of predominantly non-music-student undergrads about the joys of Afro-beat, Fluxus, Serialism, Jazz, Aliatory, and even DIY musical techniques in a course called "Music in Our Time." While the reviews (in the form of student evaluation forms) tell me I was universally loathed, I got to expose kids whose ideas of a musical good time went from Jay-D to Ashley Simpson and thought they covered the waterfront to "A Love Supreme," Laurie Anderson, John Cage, Fela and Femi, Steve Reich, music for flowerpots and synchronized toilets (not the same recordings), and mash-ups (one of the few bright spots as far as they were concerned) and watch the shock, but not see the awe. Awwww.
Hank Bordowitz
Suffern, New York
Five lessons learned by University of Iowa undergrads in my 2005 "Popular Music & Culture" class, in which they had to answer the following throwaway final exam question: "In a couple sentences, explain why although it is important to reserve the right to rock24 hours a day." 5. Because you have to eat and drink water to survive, and neither is possible while you are rocking. And although it would be "rad," you might get tired. 4. If one were to rock it hardcore 24 hours a day, it could cause severe whiplash, multiple STDs, and cirrhosis of the liver. Though many of these side effects are considered very "rock and roll, motherfucker!," they also can lead to death, and very bad haircuts. 3. Because even though rocking might make you seem cooler to your friends, we all still have to remember why we're here: to learn. That's why it's so damn cool to take a class about rocking, like a two-in-one deal. 2. Rocking it hardcore twenty-four hours a day may have some negative side effects: headache, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. These side effects are rare, but occurred in 8% of the experimental group of 24-hour hardcore rockers, as opposed to the control group that was able to reserve the right to rock. 1. Twenty-four hours a day is too much rock. Like all revolutions, rock should be concealed and sustained until the perfect moment, when it will rise from the bonfires of hell and unleash a moment never before seen on this earth!

We've written a few posts here about making a good first impression with your design clients. But most of what we have written is based on the assumption that you will meet your client in person to make that impression. What about clients you meet online? I don't know about you, but it's getting to a point where I have more clients that I never meet with face to face, but only in an online setting. Today's post will cover
How to bring in more design clients without dropping your prices
It seems like every time I talk to designers about bringing in more business, the most common solution for finding more clients is dropping prices. Unless you want to make less money and be more stressed, let me offer a few alternative options to dropping your prices. Oh. And then add your tips by leaving a comment. Target high-income clients The obvious alternative to dropping your prices is finding clients who are willing to pay you what you're worth. What's
How many design revisions do your clients get?
One of my favorite pieces of design business advice comes from talented and successful designer, Christ Spooner. You can read about his advice (and some of mine) in detail by skimming through "Avoid Design Burnout by Limiting Client Revisions" but here's the basic idea: On Chris's request for proposal page he includes the following phrase: Don't ask how many revisions are included in the cost This is my most hated phrase in the design industry. A Common Problem Frankly, this
How to steal design business from your competitors
"Stealing" is a bad word. But today, I want to teach you a few ways you can steal business from your competition; a few ways you can get the edge on your competition and win more clients than anyone in town. So in that sense, stealing isn't all that bad. If this sounds like something that could help your design business move to the next level, read on and enjoy.

5 Solid Strategies to Keep Freelance Work Rolling In
In the past few years, I've noted a significant increase in the number of job postings for freelance graphic designers. While it doesn't surprise me, as I keep on top of job trends in many professions, I thought it would be useful to see what labor gurus – i.e., Bureau of Labor researchers – say about graphic design as a career. The most recent Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Occupational Outlook Handbook says that between 2008 and 2018, employment for
Take your logo design to the next level with a super brainstorm
Logo design is hard. I mean, sure, any second-rate designer can throw together some text and an image. Most designers can even handle themselves fairly well with the pen tool in Illustrator. But it takes some serious time, effort, and talent to create truly iconic logos. It's not easy creating logos that convey the right message in a creative and original way. Today, I want to discuss one of the most important aspects of the logo design process: Brainstorming. (PS.
SEO 101 for designers
Search engine ranking affects the amount of traffic coming to a website in a big way. Rarely do users go past the second page of search engines when searching for something. Therefore, it is important to have your website on the first two pages for you to get any substantial traffic. There are a number of things that may be making your website to rank poorly. These can include both on-page and off-page search engine optimization factors. On-page factors refer

What is "black music"? What do we mean when we say we like black music? We'll take a look at four important themes that have shaped what we mean when we say "black music" and may help us understand more deeply why we enjoy it and find it such a powerful reservoir of bodily pleasure, intellectual sophistication, and spiritual sustenance. What draws us to this music? In attempting to answer this question, we will be thinking through a number of keywords such as authenticity, representation, recognition, cultural ownership, appropriation, and origin(s). These concepts have structured the ways in which critics, musicians and audiences have addressed the various social, political and aesthetic contexts in which African American music has been composed (produced), performed (re-produced) and heard (consumed). In exploring the diversity of African American musical expression, we will question our assumptions about race, about music, and the links between the two. By taking a thematic approach, we will see how African American music has both shaped and been shaped by the social contexts in which it is created and performed. Our readings and discussions will encompass African American music from spirituals and work songs to bebop and hip hop, from Duke Ellington to N.W.A., from Bessie Smith to Stevie Wonder, from James Reese Europe to Bob Marley, all of which will help us explore the rich set of meanings black music has held in the Americas for over four hundred years.

The New Republic: Columbia Musicians Honor the Legendary Nick Hathaway
The current blog of The New Republic features a story on the legendary songwriter and composer Nick Hathaway, described by his discoverer and Columbia Journalism Professor David Hajdu as "the genre- and taste-defying songsmith known for having the kind of talent that is truly not to be believed."
The blog post is in honor of the first anniversary of Hathaway's death at the piano in Chester, Pennsylvania, on April 1, 2011. It features a riveting video performance of Hathaway's best-loved unheard piece of work: the words and music he wrote for "Man in a Mousetrap," the conceptual production directed in 1953 by the avant-gardist Jeffrey Cordova. Here, in the piece's debut, Theo Bleckmann, the esteemed experimental vocalist, performs "Man in a Mousetrap" at Columbia University, with Jon Weber (pianist and host of the NPR radio series "Piano Jazz Rising Stars"), Chris Washburne (respected trombonist and director of the Jazz Performance Program at Columbia), and the violinist and scholar (and Columbia musicology PhD candidate) Matthew Morrison. The performance also features a consideration of Hathaway's historical importance by Columbia's Edwin Case Professor of Music, George Lewis, who concludes that "in the history of the American avant-garde, Nick Hathaway stands out as a figure of rare conventionality."
Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Awards Continuing Innovation Grant to the Center for Jazz Studies and American Composers Orchestra
Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Awards Continuing Innovation Grant to the Center for Jazz Studies and American Composers Orchestra for the 2012-13 Jazz Composers Orchestra Institute
The Center for Jazz Studies at Columbia University has just received a $120,000 grant from The Doris Duke Charitable Foundation's Continuing Innovation program to present an expanded version of its innovative Jazz Composers Orchestra Institute. The Institute, a collaboration between the Center for Jazz Studies and American Composers Orchestra, engages jazz composers in seminars and workshops on composing for orchestra and professional development. During the first five-day Intensive in 2010 and two days of readings with the American Composers Orchestra in 2011, eight new works were rehearsed, performed and recorded.
"We are honored to support the work of the Center for Jazz Studies at Columbia University," said Ben Cameron, Program Director for the Arts at the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. "This year's grant competition was especially strong, and this grant is a testament to the important work the Center has done and will do for the entire jazz field. We look forward to the expansion of the program and to the new works that will be fostered through it."
For the 2012-13 JCOI, in addition to Columbia and American Composers Orchestra (ACO), UCLA's Herb Alpert School of Music will serve as educational partner to present an expanded Intensive in both New York City and Los Angeles. Other project partners include the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra (New York), Stockton Symphony and La Jolla Symphony (California).

Welcome to Professors Kevin Fellezs and Benjamin Steege!
The Department of Music at Columbia University welcomes two new faculty members, both joining us officially as of the Spring 2012 semester.
Kevin Fellezs has been appointed as Assistant Professor of Music, in a joint appointment with the Institute for Research in African American Studies at Columbia. His book titled Birds of Fire: Jazz, Rock, Funk and the Creation of Fusion (Duke University Press, 2011) is a study of fusion (jazz-rock-funk) music of the 1970s framed by insights drawn from critical race theory and jazz/popular music studies. He has published articles in Jazz Perspectives, Journal of Popular Music Studies, and the Institute for Studies in American Music Newsletter. He has also published essays in a number of edited anthologies including Alien Encounters: Asian Americans and Popular Culture (Duke University), One World Periphery Reads the Other: Knowing the "Oriental" in the Americas and the Iberian Peninsula (Cambridge Scholars), and Heavy Metal: Controversies and Countercultures (Equinox). His research interests extend further, to Asian American popular music, Asian music, and the musical cultures of the Pacific. Prof. Fellezs holds the PhD in History of Consciousness/American Studies from The University of California at Santa Cruz, and previously taught at the University of California at Merced.
This spring, Prof. Fellezs will be teaching:
- Spring 2012 African-American Studies W3030 section 001

Tuesday Thursday 11:00am-12:15pm 603 Hamilton Hall
Benjamin Steege has been appointed as Assistant Professor of Music. Prof. Steege comes to Columbia having previously taught at Stony Brook University. He specializes in the history of music theory in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with particular emphasis on musical and scientific modernisms, the history of psychology, and the history of listening. His book, Helmholtz and the Modern Listener, is forthcoming from Cambridge University Press. Other publications appear in Current Musicology, Journal of Music Theory, Zeitschrift fur die Gesellschaft der Musiktheorie, and Journal of the American Musicological Society (forthcoming). He is on the editorial board of Music Theory Spectrum, and has been a research fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (2010-11) and recipient of an Alvin H. Johnson AMS 50 Dissertation Fellowship (2005-06).
This spring, Prof. Steege will be teaching:
- Spring 2012 Music G6333 section 001
- PROSEMINAR IN MUSIC THEORY; 3 points;
Wednesday 10:10am-12:00pm 701A Dodge Hall. - Spring 2012 Music G4360 section 001

V2014 Popular Musics- Americas: Country Music
Instructor: Aaron Fox Call #: 68348, 3 pts, TR 2:40pm-3:55pm, 405 Dodge
This is an undergraduate lecture/discussion survey course that combines a detailed musical and social history of "country" as an American and global popular music genre with an introduction to key issues in the academic study of popular music as exemplified by the growing scholarly literature on country. Inarguably, the genre (formerly known as "hillbilly" and "country and western" and sometimes "folk" music) constitutes a crucially important strand in the history of music in the 20th century, both in the United States and globally.
V3030 Asian American Music
Instructor: Ellie Hisama Call #: 62292, 3 pts, MW 10:35am-11:50am, 404 Dodge
Examination of the diverse ways in which Asian Americans have understood and shaped their musical prac- tices. We will explore the ways in which Asians have been represented via sound, text, and image, and will consider Asian Americans' participation in composed music traditions, jazz, traditional/folk music, diasporic music, improvised music, and popular musics. The course will reflect on readings from musicology, ethnomu- sicology, and music theory as well as fields outside of music in order to consider Asian American music in relation to critical issues of diaspora, race/ethnicity, gender/sexuality, polyculturalism, and political activism.

Phrases in Common:
What do these two phrases have in common?
What about these two?
Answer below. (show) To uh clum:
Both "Puppy Quip" and "Yak Joke" are only typed using the left hand on the Dvorak Keyboard layout. And to Kevin... because you capitalized the first word in your phrases, technically you type them with both hands because the shift key is always pressed using the opposite hand. 11.11.2005 11:46am
Dustin Ragan -- If we're going to depart from touch typing by using the "wrong" hand to hit the shift key, we might as well depart altogether, in which case all words can be typed with either hand (my Qwerty keyboard's "a" key works just fine when I hit it with my right hand!)
11.11.2005 12:36pm
I think the whole point, Jason, is that this riddle is answerable only by proper-technique touch typists.
Not self-taught typists, who may not have to look (and are thus touch-typing), but don't use their hands in the "proper" manner, and of course not anyone who isn't a touch-typist. 11.11.2005 12:56pm
DH:Here's a simple one: What's the only state capital that can be typed exclusively with one hand? It's easy if you look it up, obviously.
11.11.2005 1:02pm
The predictable Guy:No, the answer is, of course, that none of these have ever been in my kitchen. Except for "Grade A Eggs", of course. Very few kitchens have never had Grade A Eggs in them. And, I do remember having on more than one occasion been phoned for an opinion poll on the kitchen telephone. So that one's out. Come to think of it, the people I bought my house from inherited it from a parent, so estate taxes were once in, or at least associated with, my kitchen. So that leaves only opium po. . . oh yeah. . . that one time. . . The correct answer is that all of them have been in my kitchen. 11.11.2005 4:22pm

Fairy In the Garden
What materials did you use? Purchased as a kit - Fabric and Fairy Tapestry. I added the remainder - painted border, glitter paints, kreinik ribbon, couching, shaworski crystals in the wings, iron on beads on the headpiece, and I embroidered all the butterflies. Also used several types of metallic threads. This one is all mine to hang over our piano in the loft.
What are you most proud of? She's absolutely beautiful and I am very proud of how she turned out. I did so many different things to her as she came to life. I especially like the magical figure in the background shining on her. I also love the embroidered butterflies and the painted border. When I originaly posted her - I knew she was missing something - I wanted to have a group of Butterflies in flight along the right border - so I created additional butterflies with angelina fibres and embroidery and then painted on the glitter flight path. She is now completed and she is ready for hanging.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Time......it took me a few years to complete due to other projects and I didn't have the inspiration - Each part of her was done when something came to my mind and finally she is complete. All I have left is the the signature piece on the back and then hang her on the spiral brass rod I have finally found.
Phenomenal! Extraordinary!!
Thank you - It's the first thing I have kept for myself!

"Art Truancy: Celebrating 20 Years of Juxtapoz Magazine" @ Jonathan LeVine Gallery—The Art
Juxtapoz // Monday, May 19, 2014
And finally, the art. We are so proud of all the artwork that is on exhibit in "Art Truancy: Celebrating 20 Years of Juxtapoz Magazine," open at Jonathan LeVine Gallery in NYC through June 14, 2014. It blows our mind that we are now two decades old, but what is even more amazing are all the artists that have been in our pages over those years. Their works tell the story, create the chance to document alternative art narratives, bring out the fans, bring out the collectors, and keep the creative energy of Juxtapoz alive. Here, then, is all the art in "Art Truancy."

The exhibition features a wide-range of cover artists and featured artists from over the past 20 years, and today we have a look at some of the covers from artists in the show. From Robert Williams to Grotesk, Mark Ryden to Swoon, here is a bit of a history lesson to catch up on, or reminisce over.
Miss Van "ROOM FOR CREAM" @ Soze Gallery, Los Angeles
Juxtapoz // Wednesday, September 25, 2013
Miss Van is one of our favorite painters, with an elegance and command that we are always impressed with and makes for a really strong impression when seen in person. The French-born, Barcelona-based artist just opened a solo show, Room For Cream, at Soze Gallery in Los Angeles, featuring new paintings and a stunning collaborative mural outside the gallery, done with Ciro Schu (Mr Schu also has a series of paintings up at Soze's sister gallery, Time to Shine).

Well this really came out better than we expected. What's French for ooh la-la?" The print was made in an edition of 60, signed and numbered by the Toulouse-born, Barcelona-based artist, and 5-color screenprint using fluorescent ink and graphite.
Preview: September issue featuring Daniel Clowes, London Police, and David Shrigley
Juxtapoz // Wednesday, August 01, 2012
A busy summer it has been all around in the art world, but in our home base of the San Francisco Bay Area, we have had two significant museum retrospectives that have made their way into the September 2012 issue of Juxtapoz. First off, we celebrate our cover story, Daniel Clowes, and his fantastic exhibition at the Oakland Museum of California, Modern Cartoonist: The Art of Daniel Clowes. Over the years, the iconic comic book artist has given us cult-followed works such as Ghost World, Eightball, Wilson, and numerous covers for The New Yorker.

That is an odd quirk of the system. I didn't realize there was such a connection between a mixed exclusive rating and a subsequent adult same sex rating.
If he had played 3 adult matches instead of 2, he would have gotten a C rating instead of an M rating, presumably 4.0 C since there is nothing at all indicative of 4.5 in his adult results. The real question is, if he self-rates for adult, regardless of whether he appeals down to 4.0 or not, do the two matches played last year count toward a dynamic rating? In other words, he should have some kind of dynamic rating from the two adult matches, so if he plays one more adult match, do those three adult matches then generate a YE C rating and therefore bypass the mixed results that generated a 4.5M rating? If so, even if he tries to appeal and is denied, he could conceivably sign up for 4.5 adult, play one match and get thrashed (he would even have to throw it - he's not a 4.5 player...), and hope that the three adult matches override the mixed ratings and bump him back down to 4.0.
