"We just returned from a 10 day trip to Paris and Normandy. We spent three nights in Paris and then enjoyed a seven night cruise on the Seine to Normandy with AMA Waterways. The time in Paris was well spent and has piqued our interest to return for a more thorough visit. Guide Wafaa Lankey was superb in our visit to Versailles. The Seine cruise was relaxing and beautiful. So many wonderful little towns and we wished we had more time in each one to explore and enjoy.
We traveled to Croatia and Slovenia using Kensington earlier this year which was a fantastic trip."

The Cargo Daemon is a Web-based application that uses the Cargo API to configure, start and stop containers on a remote machine.
The daemon is meant to be listening 24/7, to allow users to deploy new containers and web applications at their command.
It can be accessed using a browser-based UI, via Java API or Maven2 plugin.
Table of Contents
The documentatation for the Cargo Daemon includes:
- Installation: explains how to install and run the daemon
- Getting started: very quick guide on using the daemon
To install and run the Cargo Daemon:
- Download the Cargo Daemon from the Downloads page
- Execute by typing:
where <version> is the version number of the daemon that you have downloaded.
By default, the Cargo Daemon will run on HTTP port
18000. To change it, use the
-p option:
Additionally, Cargo Daemon will save log files in the cargo home directory unless the
-nologging option is used.
Note that the Cargo Daemon is a WAR file; you can actually also deploy it as a WAR on any existing container. This can be useful if you want to, for example, reuse a certain security configuration.
The daemon also accepts other parameters, in the form of system properties:
Property name
Default value
Directory in which the standaone daemon server stores its files. These include the temporary files (such as its own WAR and server temporary files) as well as the server log files (
This property is not used and completely ignored if the daemon WAR file is deployed on an existing container.
Directory in which the daemon (be it standalone or deployed on an existing container) stores the list of containers, downloaded container archives, container logs, etc.
Note that the standalone daemon by default sets this to
Getting started using the browser UI
To use the Cargo Daemon via the browser UI, simply open
http://<machine>:<port>/ -where
<machine> is the machine host name or IP address and
<port> is the port number used (default is
- To start a container, fill in the form and press Submit:
- To stop, restart, delete or view logs of a container, use the actions on the containers list:
- The Cargo Daemon keeps a persistent record on disk of all the containers that have been submitted. Containers that have been submitted will stay in the list, even when they are stopped. This allows you to manually restart them, or view the logs even after the container is stopped.
- If you want the container to be removed from the list, simply press the delete button.
- Containers can also be submitted with the
autostartproperty (currently only via the Java API or the Maven2/Maven3 plugin), this will automatically restart the container if the daemon notices it is stopped.
Getting started with the Java API / Maven2/Maven3 plugin
As stated before, the Cargo Daemon is also available programmatically:
- The details of the Java API can be seen on the Javadoc for o.c.c.tools.daemon.DaemonClient
- The details of the configuration for the Maven2/Maven3 plugin is documented in the Daemon section of the Maven2/Maven3 plugin reference guide

Senate GOP blocks Hagel vote for now
Friday - 2/15/2013, 3:46am EST
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Senate Republicans on Thursday blocked the nomination of former GOP senator Chuck Hagel as the nation's next defense secretary over unrelated questions about President Barack Obama's actions in the aftermath of the deadly raid on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya. Obama accused Republicans of playing politics with national security during wartime, and Democrats vowed to revive the nomination after Congress' weeklong break.
By 58-40, with one abstention, the Senate fell short of the 60-vote threshold required to advance Hagel's nomination to a final, up-or-down vote on his confirmation. Four Republicans voted with Democrats to end the debate and proceed to a final vote: Sens. Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine and Mike Johanns of Nebraska.
Obama reacted immediately, hammering Republicans for an unprecedented filibuster of a nominee for defense secretary and insisting that Hagel -- a former two-term Republican senator from Nebraska and twice-wounded Vietnam combat veteran -- will eventually win confirmation. He would succeed Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who is stepping down after four years as CIA director and Pentagon chief.
"It's just unfortunate that this kind of politics intrudes at a time when I'm still presiding over a war in Afghanistan and I need a secretary of defense who is coordinating with our allies to make sure that our troops are getting the kind of strategy and mission that they deserve," the president said in an online chat sponsored by Google.
In the final minutes of the tally, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., switched his vote from "yes" to "no," a procedural move that allows him to revive the nomination after the break. He set another vote for Feb. 26.
"Just when you thought things couldn't get worse, it gets worse," the Democratic leader lamented of the chamber's bitter partisanship.
The successful Republican effort to block a vote on Hagel leaves one of the most contentious nominations of the Obama presidency in limbo, although Republicans signaled that they would relent and allow a simple majority vote on Hagel when they return from their recess.
Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., voted against ending debate. But he said that he expects to change his vote, and he believes many of his GOP colleagues will do the same.
"I'm confident that after a reasonable period of time I'm going to vote to end the debate so that we can have an up-or-down vote on Chuck Hagel," Alexander said. "I suspect there will be a large number of Republican senators who also do that."
Echoing a complaint by other Republicans, Alexander called Thursday's vote "unfortunate" and "unnecessary" because Hagel's nomination came up on the Senate floor too quickly -- just two days after it was approved by a bitterly divided Armed Services Committee.
Still, a week without any resolution and the possibility of any surprises are the last things any White House wants for its nominees. Hagel's nomination has been unusual, facing a well-funded opposition that has unleashed a barrage of criticism in campaign-style television and print ads. Hagel has faced intense opposition from Republicans, who have challenged his past statements and votes on Israel, Iran, Iraq and nuclear weapons.
At least one group insisted shortly after the vote that it would redouble its efforts to defeat Obama's choice.
"The Emergency Committee for Israel will continue to work to convince a majority of senators of the undeniable truth that we can do much, much better than Mr. Hagel," William Kristol, chairman of the group said in a statement.
The vote on Hagel combined with the delay on CIA Director-designate John Brennan's nomination puts Republicans in a tough position as Democrats are certain to cast them as filibustering two critical members of the Obama's second-term national security team.
"Today's vote to filibuster Chuck Hagel's nomination by Republicans is a disgrace, and the GOP is now holding America's security and its troops hostage," said Jon Soltz, an Iraq war veteran and chairman of VoteVets.org.
Republicans, led by Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham, had been blocking the confirmation of their former colleague until they received information from the White House on when Obama contacted Libyan officials after the attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi last September in which Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed.
The White House responded to questions about Benghazi by saying former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called Libyan President Mohamed Magariaf on Obama's behalf on Sept. 11, the day of the attack, to coordinate additional support to protect Americans in Libya. White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler said Obama spoke to Magariaf on the evening of Sept. 12.

Pantry Solutions
You might have what you need to clean hard water deposits right in your pantry. You can remove lime scale with white vinegar or a lemon (just cut it in half and rub it on the stain). If the stain is covered by layers of soap scum, it may require a lot of elbow grease or something stronger.
The North Carolina Cooperative Extension Office offers a few more suggestions:
- Make a paste of white vinegar and baking soda, let it sit and then rinse.
- Mix 2-4 tablespoons of trisodium phosphate (okay, you might have to buy this one) in a gallon of water, scrub and rinse well.
The second recipe is also good for rust stains. Vinegar is commonly used to get stains out of coffee machines and can even be put into the rinse cycle compartment of a dishwasher to help eliminate and prevent spots on dishes. Don't use acids on marble or granite, as they can etch the surface of natural stone.

thanks, and im looking forward to posting some good news and shots of this thing outside and moving under its own power
quick update, been a couple months since weve done anything on this as weve been trying to track down transmissions... finally sourced a complete unit from what we were told was a running/driving car last week, its at the transmission shop now getting a once over. along the way weve managed to pick up another spare semi-complete 4spd for parts later (bringing our grand total up to 3 4spd RR transmissions... that has to be a record ).
hope to have some progress made within the next month or so after all of the transmissions come back from the shop
then its onto refinishing the wood, cleaning things up under the hood, and likely swapping on some reproduction early bumpers to make it look period correct again, should have it looking something like this after the bumper swap:

no modern v8 swaps...
original 60s shadows are getting hard to find, and swapping over the brake system to something non-rolls is much more trouble than id like to go through. would be a bit more tempting perhaps if the entire brake/suspension system wasnt tied into the engine, but
as for what weve spent so far...
we got the car for around $6000, havent bought anything yet as weve been waiting to hunt down a good trans before going any further. aside from ~$100 for an RROC membership and another $50 or so for factory service manuals and a RR Shadow enthusiasts handbook. i have a laundry list of new/used parts i need to hunt down but were likely targeting bumpers first as the big ticket items early on, and some cleanup parts under the hood. stuff like refinishing the wood and treating the leather, repainting under the hood and whatnot are all free, just time consuming.
no new shots yet, as its just been sitting in about the same state as what the first page showed.
ill take some more new pictures when i go to pick up the transmissions

thanks for the vote of confidence
we went to check it out on a bit of a whim, and wanted something to mix up our usual slew of european econobox projects. i think its succeeded in opening the eyes of everyone involved to an entirely different car community/culture, which i think was partially the goal.
and i think trying to keep this thing as true to original as possible (visually anyway) was always part of the plan.
heres a couple more shots i found... the front seat looks a lot worse in the photo, and the finish on the wood generally seems to look better than in real life

Beautiful car. The chrome bumper Shadow/T-Series are really quite handsome once you step back from working on them and take a good gander...
Hey wait a minute... I SEE MUSTARD!!! DAMN YOU!!!!
i really like this car in that color. not flashy but not silver, white, gray, black.
looks like it was kept in really good shape!
Love it! I've always wanted an old RR to tinker with, and they are just beautiful cars to sit and stare at.

otherwise they used a RR 4spd licensed from GM, but made by RR, thats the one weve got. it resembles an old GM hydra used in the 50s, but this one is a 4spd. the transmissions are rare, the parts are even more rare, and theyre relatively fragile.
we could have been back on the road for a couple hundred bucks if this were the GM turbo trans
has an electric shift box on it that actually runs the transmission (along with numerous levers and linkage bits for the kickdown, etc) that would need to be replaced with the later style, and as ours is a right hand drive car we would need basically an entire RHD parts car with the later trans... parts would include the column, gear indicator stuff, new electronic shift box, harness for the shift box, linkages on the carbs, transmission, driveshaft, shift box, new flex plate, etc etc
more trouble than its worth without having a RHD parts car... the 4spd trans are out there, theyre just rare
If you talk to MOYERS in Va. all I have heard is it better to deal with ENRON be cause you know your F*&T at that point. I have not know any happy victims of theres.
"Motorcycles - the cigarettes of transportation." Seth Meyers
yup, that door sill plate says "mead of weybridge - distributors of rolls royce and bentley"
looks like it was added by the dealer in england.
another quick update, got some good condition early bumpers headed our way, along with some other misc parts ive been working for a while to track down - namely a new intake boot!
we made the executive decision to have the good trans we got in a few weeks ago completely gone through. new cltuches, seals, etc. when we put this thing together we dont want to have to take it apart again for another 50 years
ill post some pictures of the new parts when we start getting stuff in

An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs outside of the womb (uterus). Most ectopic pregnancies occur within a fallopian tube. Other, less common locations may include the cervix, an ovary, or the abdominal cavity. This type of pregnancy cannot survive because only the uterus can support the growth of a fetus and its placenta.
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase the risk ectopic pregnancy include:
- Previous ectopic pregnancies
- History of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- Endometriosis
- Prior surgery on fallopian tubes or uterus
- Fertility treatments
- Abnormally-shaped uterus and/or fallopian tubes
- Presence of an intrauterine device (IUD)
- Pregnancy that occurs after a sterilization procedure ( tubal ligation )
- Smoking
- Race: non-white
- Age: 35 or older
Symptoms may include:
- Missed or abnormal menstrual period
- Abdominal pain
- Spotty vaginal bleeding
- Pain in the shoulder
- Fainting
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be also be done.
Tests may include:
- Pregnancy test
- Pelvic exam
- Blood tests
- Transvaginal ultrasound (to check the uterus and fallopian tubes for the presence or absence of a pregnancy)
Treatment options include:
If the ectopic pregnancy is small and has not ruptured (burst), your doctor will recommend the medicine methotrexate. This medicine prevents further growth of the ectopic pregnancy.
Surgery may be needed, especially if the ectopic pregnancy has ruptured or if it is not in the fallopian tube. During the surgery, the pregnancy will be removed.
If the pregnancy is in the fallopian tube, the doctor may be able to repair the tube. In severe cases, the fallopian tube may need to be removed.
While there are no clear ways to reduce your risk of ectopic pregnancies, it may be helpful to:
- Maintain safe sexual practices to avoid sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) , which can damage to the fallopian tubes and ovaries.
- Get early diagnosis and treatment of STDs.

Hockey Postgame Notes
Miami vs. Bowling Green
Saturday, January 26, 2013
Steve Cady Arena - Oxford, Ohio
- Miami defeated Bowling Green, 3-1, Saturday night, for the RedHawks third straight win while also completing a weekend sweep after a 2-1 win Friday. The RedHawks' only other CCHA sweep this year came at Alaska Nov. 30-Dec. 1 while Miami also swept Colgate in non-conference action to start the year.
- With the win Friday, Miami improved its home record to 8-1-3 at Steve Cady Arena and stood its ground at second place in the CCHA standings, one point behind Western Michigan.
- Miami allowed just one goal Saturday for the fourth straight game and has given up a goal or less in 11 of its last 15 games. Miami has limited opponents to two goals or less in 18 of its last 19 contests and 21 of 26 games on the year. The RedHawks rank first nationally on defense, giving up just 1.54 gpg.
- Miami went 1-for-4 on the power play Saturday night and converted 3-of-7 chances on the weekend. The RedHawks went 2-for-2 on the penalty kill Saturday, completing a perfect 7-for-7 weekend by the PK unit. Miami has now killed 38 of its opponents' last 39 power plays dating back to Dec. 8 and 20 straight going back to Jan. 11.
- The RedHawks got off to a quick start Saturday night, receiving goals from sophomore forward Jimmy Mullin and junior forward Bryon Paulazzo in the first period. Before Saturday night, Miami had not found the net twice in the first period since Nov. 30 when the 'Hawks knocked in a pair during the opening game of the road series against Alaska. Prior to Saturday's mini outburst, Miami had just two first-period goals in its last 12 games.
- With a second-period goal, Mullin notched his second multi-point game of the season but first multi-goal game of the year. It was the first time he netted two goals in a game since Mar. 9, 2012 when he scored twice against Michigan State during the CCHA Playoffs. Mullin now has three multi-goal games in his career.
- Paulazzo scored for the third time this year and the first time since the opening series against Colgate (Oct. 13). His goal was the game-winner, his first game-winning goal this year and fourth of his career.
- Freshman goaltender Ryan McKay allowed just one goal Saturday night, making 23 saves. McKay has let in one goal or fewer in nine of his 10 starts this year. He leads the country with a 0.98 GAA and .963 save percentage.
- Freshman defenseman Matthew Caito tallied an assist on Mullin's first period goal. The freshman assisted on three of Miami's five goals against Bowling Green this weekend and is now riding a career-long three-game point streak. He has six points in the RedHawks' last five games. Caito's 10 assists this season puts him third on the team, trailing fellow freshman Riley Barber and sophomore Austin Czarnik. Caito's 13 points are fourth on the team and tops among Miami's blueliners.
- Senior defenseman Steven Spinell tallied two assists Saturday against Bowling Green, marking his first multi-point game of the season and just the fourth of his career. The two assists tie his career high as all four multi-point games were also multi-assists games. Prior to Saturday, Spinell had not recorded a point since Dec. 7 with an assist against Lake Superior State.
- Like Spinell, freshman forward Sean Kuraly dished out assists on Miami's final two goals. The two assists marked a career high as he entered Saturday with just three all season. It was also his first career multi-point effort.
- With Saturday's win, Miami is now unbeaten in its last 16 games against BGSU, going 15-0-1 dating back to Jan. 4, 2008. The RedHawks have won 20 of the last 22 meetings between the teams and are also 15-0-1 vs. BGSU in the last 16 matchups in Oxford.
- Miami finishes up its home stand next weekend when the Alaska Nanooks make the lengthy journey to Oxford. Puck drops at Steve Cady Arena Friday night at 7:35 p.m. and the series wraps up Saturday night at 7:05 p.m.

The Lions have officially confirmed the return of John Mitchell as head coach.
The Lions suspended Mitchell in June after the players complained about his harsh management ways. After a lengthy disciplinary process, which ended earlier this week, the Kiwi coach was found not guilty.
It was expected that the two parties would part ways thereafter. Mitchell was also linked to a job at English Premiership club the Sale Sharks.
However, the GLRU announced on Friday that Mitchell will resume his role.
'The Golden Lions Rugby Union can announce today [on Friday] that they have met with John Mitchell and have discussed the relevant matters following his suspension earlier the season. John will join the team when they return for their pre-season next week,' said Lions CEO Ruben Moggee.
Johan Ackermann, who coached the Golden Lions in the Currie Cup during Mitchell's absence, should continue as assistant coach. He is contracted to the Johannesburg union until the end of 2013.

Abraham Lincoln and the American Republic
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2000 12:15 p.m.
President's Day is the holiday set aside to celebrate the consolidated achievements of the two greatest American presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. The Henry Salvatori Center is pleased to commemorate this occasion by presenting Professor Steven B. Smith's talk on "Abraham Lincoln and the American Republic."
Steven Smith was educated at the University of Chicago, where he studied history and political science. He is the author of several important books, including Hegel's Critique of Liberalism: Rights in Context (1989), and Spinoza: Liberalism, and the Question of Jewish Identity (1997), which was awarded the Ralph Waldo Emerson Prize in 1997. A professor of political science at Yale University, he teaches political philosophy including a course on the statesmanship of Abraham Lincoln. In 1996 he was appointed Master of Branford College at Yale.

Professor Smith will present a second lecture "Spinoza and the Shape of Modern Liberty" at 4:00 p.m. in Heggblade Conference Room. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Never Be Satisfied
For the past decade, Lisa Fernandez has played an important role in female athletics. She began playing softball at age seven, and four years later, she was winning national championships.
At UCLA, she lead her team to the national championship and was awarded the 1993 NCAA Woman of the Year. As a member of the 1996 USA Olympic Softball Team, Fernandez won a gold medal. She is also a recipient of the Mana Las Primeras Award (1996), and three USA National Champion MVP awards. She was 1st Team All-America three years in a row (1996-98) and was nominated for the Woman's Sports Foundation Athlete of the Year twice (1997, 1998). In 1999 Lisa played for the Pan American Games Team, won a gold medal, and was selected for the 2000 USA Olympic Softball Team.
Fernandez's contribution to female athletics extends beyond mere participation. She has represented women athletes on national television, on product labels, and in Cosmopolitan, Sports Illustrated for Women, USA Today, and People. Her story is featured in Christina Lessa's Women Who Win: Stories of Triumph in Sport and in Life (1998). An active volunteer for the Women's Sports Foundation, Fernandez donates many hours to special appearances and clinics. She was also featured on the 1998 Girl Scouts of America nationwide sponsorship poster.
Fernandez's presentation, sponsored by the Kravis Leadership Institute, is the first event in a week-long celebration of the contribution of sports in the development of leaders.
China and Korea in the 21st Century: Regional and Global Perspectives
Chong-Wook Chung served as the Korean Ambassador to the Peoples' Republic of China from 1996 to 1998 and is a distinguished expert on Chinese affairs from a South Korean perspective. He also served as the Senior Secretary for Foreign Policy and National Security to the Korean President, and Korea's Ambassador-at-Large.
Chung received his B.A. from Seoul National University and his Ph.D. from Yale. He has held teaching positions at Yale, American University, George Washington University, Seoul National University, and Ajou University (Korea) where he is presently a professor of international studies. Chung has published numerous works including Maoism and Development: The Politics of Industrial Management in China (1980), Major Powers and Peace in Korea (1979), and Korean Options in a Changing International Order (1993).
China and South Korea only normalized diplomatic relations in 1992. Since then, China has struggled to form a constructive and pragmatic two-Korea policy. The results of their interaction-diplomatic, economic, and strategic-will reverberate throughout the entire Asian-Pacific region.
In his Athenaeum address Chung will talk about China's unfolding policy toward South Korea and look to the future of the region. Chung's visit to CMC is sponsored by the Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies.
A Hero for Daisy: A Documentary
Mary Mazzio, a Boston attorney and former Olympic rower wrote, directed, and produced A Hero for Daisy, a documentary film about leveling the playing field for women in college athletics, and championing strong female role models. Mazzio tells the story of two-time Olympian Chris Ernst., who in 1976 galvanized her rowing team to protest Yale's discriminatory policies toward women athletes. Yale had continued its discrimination against women's athletic programs four years after the Title IX Act mandated gender equity for all institutions receiving federal aid. In an act of solidarity, 19 members of the women's crew team marched into the Yale athletic director's office, stripped to the waist and exposed their chests emblazoned with the phrase "Title IX" in blue marker. The New York Times ran a cover story the next day. The event drew national media attention to the plight of women's sports at colleges across the country and earned the Yale women's crew team facilities equivalent to their male counterparts.
Mazzio has been a member of several U.S. National Teams including the 1992 Olympic Rowing Team and winner of the 1992 Boston Head of the Charles Regatta in the women's doubles. A graduate of Mount Holyoke College, Mazzio won both the Scholar-Athlete Award and the Mary Lyon Award for outstanding achievement as an undergraduate. She is the recipient of the Henry Luce Foundation Fellowship and the Rotary Foundation Graduate Fellowship. Mazzio earned her law degree at Georgetown and is currently a partner with the Boston law firm of Brown, Rudnick, Freed and Gesmer.
When asked what compelled her to make this documentary, Mazzio points to the absence of strong female role models for young girls. Mazzio hoped that by making A Hero for Daisy: A Documentary (1999), she would be preserving a pivotal moment in the struggle for women's rights, and championing the courageous acts of true heroes-the type of hero that would serve as an admirable role model for her young daughter Daisy.
Mary Mazzio's presentation of A Hero for Daisy is an integral addition to the Kravis Institute's series The Role of Parents and Coaches in Developing Leadership in Athletes.

Poet Reads from His Work
A sort of unearthing has to take place; sometimes one has to remove layers of facades and superficialities. The Writer has to get down to the guts of the thing and rediscover the basic timbre of his or her existence.
-Yusef Komunyakaa
Yusef Komunyakaa is a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet who has been lauded for infusing his verse with childhood and wartime experiences and images of musical healing. Born in Bogalusa, Louisiana, in 1947, Komunyakaa grew up among southern attitudes and New Orleans-style jazz and blues. Upon graduation from high school, he joined the Army and served in Vietnam. He was awarded the Bronze Star for his work as a correspondent and then editor of the military newspaper The Southern Cross.
After leaving the army, Komunyakaa earned a B.A. from the University of Colorado, where he discovered his talent for creative writing; an M.A. from Colorado State University; and an M.F.A. from UC Irvine. He is the author of eight volumes of poetry and the coeditor of two anthologies. He is presently a professor of creative writing at Princeton University. Komunyakaa's poetry includes Toys in the Field (1987), a verse chronicle of his time in Vietnam; Copacetic (1984), which explores the relationship between racism and the healing power of jazz; and I Apologize for the Eyes in My Head (1986), where he rejects stereotypical labels and embraces mythic images. In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, Komunyakaa has received two Creative Writing Fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the San Francisco Poetry Center Award.
Yusef Komunyakaa comes to the Athenaeum to read from his work as part of our great contemporary poets series.
Comix 101
Art Spiegelman has made it his mission in life to help comics reach their ultimate aesthetic potential. In 1986 Spiegelman released his landmark work Maus I: A Survivors Tale: My Father Bleeds History, a comic novel that traces his parents struggles in Holocaust concentration camps during World War II. This work won a Pulitzer Prize In 1992, and has done more to raise the appreciation of comics as an art form than any other work this century.
Spiegelman entered the world of comics through his unique and consciously aesthetic comic magazine Raw, which he published with his wife Francoise Mouly from 1980 to 1991. In the mid 1980s Spiegelman began working for The New Yorker and has played an instrumental role in bringing a new edge to the satire and art that grace the magazine's cover and interact with its articles. As a cartoonist for The New Yorker, he has consistently pushed the limits of controversy, playing on delicate subjects like race relations, guns in schools, and the plight of the homeless in shocking and confrontational ways. Now serving as The New Yorker's comics editor, Spiegelman hopes that the magazine can serve as a showcase for the future of comics, visual images that strike upon the consciousness in a way that no other art form can.
Spiegelman joins us at the Athenaeum to explore the history of comics as an art form, and their role in representing both the humor and the concerns of the society that spawns them. Comix 101 is a journey into the realm of the cartoonist, giving the audience a greater appreciation of how comics have developed over the years, and their potential as an art form in the coming century.
An Evening of Flamenco Music and Dance
Gypsies are often credited as the creators of flamenco, but the popular songs and dances of Andalusia, the Islamic culture, and traditional Spanish country songs and dances have also influenced this art form. Flamenco, which reached it's height of popularity in the cafe cantates (music cafes) during the mid-nineteenth century, consists of three parts, each integral to the experience: Cante, the song; Baile, the dance; and Guitarra, guitar playing.
Renowned throughout the world for their interpretation of flamenco, Adam and Laila del Monte perform in clubs, theatres and concert halls across Europe and the United States. The del Montes descend from a long lineage of Spanish ancestry, and legends of gypsy blood abound in both their backgrounds. After nearly 500 years of exile, families dispersed by the expulsion edict of Ferdinand and Isabel, both Laila and Adam returned to Spain in 1986, where they met and have since performed the flamenco as a team. The del Montes bring the art of flamenco to new levels, weaving together the centuries old music and dance traditions of the gypsies of Central and Eastern Europe with those of the ancient Sepharads. They have redefined the modern flamenco style, adding new rhythms such as 11/8 and 17/8 to the traditionally complex rhythms of 12/4 and 4/4.
The Athenaeum invites you to experience an intimate and innovative evening of flamenco song and dance with the Adam and Laila del Monte. This performance is part of the Stotsenberg Chamber Music series, made possible by a gift from Ed and Dorothy Stotsenberg, friends of Claremont McKenna College.
It's Principle That Counts
THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 2000 12:15 p.m.
Republican presidential candidate Alan Keyes is a seasoned statesman, dedicated family man, and genuine conservative. In 1978 while studying for his Ph.D. in Government Affairs at Harvard University, he served as a U.S. State Department Foreign Service Officer and continued working at various levels for the State Department for the next five years. He was appointed as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Economic & Social Council in 1983 and held this position until 1985. Following his career in international politics, Keyes received the Republican nominations for U.S. Senator from Maryland in 1988 and 1992. In 1996 he became a candidate for United States President. A former syndicated radio talk show host of The Alan Keyes Show: America's Wake- Up Call, Keyes has also written two books including Our Character, Our Future: Reclaiming America's Moral Destiny (1996). As a current presidential candidate, Keyes believes that "no future for America is lost until in your loss of conviction you throw it away." His more controversial issues include school choice, getting rid of the federal income tax, and establishing a national sales tax. As one of the most conservative leaders in contemporary America, Alan Keyes brings his steadfast pro-life beliefs to the forefront of American mainstream politics.
11:45 a.m. luncheon open to CMC community ONLY. All are welcome to the address at 12:15 p.m.
The Next Politics
The ideas of the third way are reviving center-left political parties throughout the industrialized world as people everywhere struggle to put a human face on the global economy. Today, less than 15 years after we started, the ideas pushed by the DLC are literally sweeping the world.
-President Bill Clinton
Al From is the founder and president of the Democratic Leadership Council and Progressive Policy Institute (DLC/PPI). The DLC/PPI was founded in 1985, in the midst of the Reagan presidency. Its purpose was to create and empower a center-left in American politics that would combine progressive goals with practical policy, and focus more on the middle class. The result was "the third way," characterized in the United States by the Clinton Presidency; in Britain by the success of Prime Minister Tony Blair; in Germany by the election of Gerhard Schroeder; and in Italy by the government of Prime Minister Massimo D'Alema.
From was born in 1943, in South Bend, Indiana. He earned a Master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University and was editor of the Daily Northwestern. He served as director of Edmund Muskie's U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Intergovernmental Relations for eight years and was executive director of the House Democratic Caucus from 1981 through 1985. In addition to his work at the DLC/PPI, he is the cochair of the Charter Schools Development Corporation and a founding member of FreedomChannel.com. The ideas of the DLC and the policies researched and advocated by the PPI played a prominent role in President Clinton's (a former chair of the DLC) 1992 platform. They have also formed the crux of most of his successful proposals. Presently, the DLC membership includes multiple Governors, Senators, and House leaders.
In his Athenaeum lecture Al From, a man who has helped shape modern American politics, will talk about the demographic changes that will shape the next politics, the ideas that will define it, the rules that will govern it, and the challenges it must meet.

Six times in the last month, a woman approached an area pharmacy counter with a threatening note, demanding oxycodone.
Five times, pharmacists handed over the prescription painkillers.
Sunday a pharmacist refused, sending the woman away empty-handed.
That sparked a search that crossed three counties and ended with a 45-year-old accused of armed robbery and a slate of felony and misdemeanor drug charges.
Police say Lorrie Kimberly Griffin of 1995 Rock Springs Circle, Denver, robbed six pharmacies of more than 1,000 pills.
The Lincoln County woman was arrested Monday night, and her daughter, Chandra Diane Griffin, 19, also of Rock Springs Circle, was charged with possessing drugs and drug paraphernalia.
The women were charged the same night as the most recent robbery in the Catawba County town of Conover.
The elder Griffin is suspected of robbing pharmacies in Dallas, Stanley, Newton, Conover and Huntersville.
Detectives describe the same scenarios in each of the robberies.
They say Lorrie Griffin would walk into the store, approach a pharmacy employee and hand over a note demanding oxycodone.
"She did it so discretely that none of the customers were aware of what was going on until after the fact," said Capt. Tim Hayes with Newton Police.
Griffin made off with more than 1,000 pills from the Stanely CVS, according to police. Other pharmacies reported losses of more than 300 pills.
Stanley's was the first of the robberies. Then, after a month-long hiatus, police believe the woman went on a spree in February, hitting chain drug stores in Gaston, Mecklenburg and Catawba counties.
A Sunday attempt in Huntersville didn't go like the others.
For the first time, the pharmacist refused to give the woman drugs. She left, and someone got a partial license plate number.
A Huntersville detective began looking for matching license plate numbers, a search that led investigators to Griffin's Denver home.
Detectives began watching the Griffins' residence Monday, the same day the Conover CVS was robbed of oxycodone. When a black Dodge Ram left the house, officers pulled it over on Rock Springs Circle near the intersection of N.C. 16 in Denver.
Officers searched the truck and found a BB gun that looked like a pistol in a gym bag, along with numerous oxycodone pills, according to the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office. Deputies also found a small amount of marijuana, other pills and drug paraphernalia on the teenager, according to detectives.
Lorrie Griffin was charged with two felony counts of trafficking heroin, one felony count of maintaining a vehicle for a controlled substance and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia. She was held on $100,000 secured bond.
She was also served with two warrants for felony robbery with a dangerous weapon from the Newton and Conover pharmacy robberies.
Chandra Griffin was charged with three misdemeanors: two counts of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was jailed under a $2,500 secured bond.
In most instances it wasn't clear if Lorrie Griffin showed a weapon, but she threatened violence with a weapon in her notes, according to police.
Female armed robbers are rare in the area, but the suspect fits the profile of someone trying to get her hands on prescription pills, said Stanley Interim Police Chief Derek Summey.
Statistically, middle-aged women fit the demographic of people using scams or schemes to get their hands on prescription drugs, according to Summey.
"It is uncommon to have a female armed robbery suspect, but it's not uncommon to have a white female doing your drug diversion," he said.
Oxycodone is an opiate that offers the same effects as heroin.
"They're chasing that same high," he said.
Over the past several years, law enforcement has cracked down on pill abusers, more closely monitoring who may be "doctor shopping" to get multiple prescription outlets.
According to Summey, heroin use is also on the rise in the South. Some prescription abusers may resort to buying heroin on the street when pill supplies dry up, he said.
Others may turn to different extreme measures, said Summey.
"This is just another alternative way for people to obtain that opiate," said Summey. "It just kind of gives a picture of how desperate people are getting."

The St. Stephens wrestling team finished 2010 with a bang.
The Indians were a perfect 5-0 record at the RS Central Duals on Saturday. They defeated McDowell (62-15), West Henderson (62-9), Chase (46-24), Polk County (55-24) and tournament host RS Central (65-15).
Not only was their record impressive, but so were the milestones of two individuals on the team.
Coach Billy Baker reached his 350th career win on the last dual of the day against Polk County.
Nine residents were selected Monday who could potentially determine the outcome of an investigation into the death and disappearance of Zahra Baker.
Superior Court Judge Robert C. Ervin presided over the selection Monday of new members of the Catawba County Grand Jury. It's these people who determine if there's reasonable cause to charge someone in connection with Zahra's death.
The man accused of killing a woman with his vehicle and leaving the scene of the crash was in court Monday.
Jonathan Caleb Burke, 31, of Newton, appeared in Catawba County District Court on charges of injury to real property and a motions violation.
Burke is charged with felony death by motor vehicle, driving while impaired and reckless driving to endanger after he allegedly struck and killed Tamara Wallis, of Newton, as she stood outside her home on N.C. 16 in September 2008.
Jaime Perez, 47, of Hickory, died Jan. 1, 2011, at Catawba Valley Medical Center.
A funeral Mass will be at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2011, at Jenkins Funeral Home Chapel.
Nonie Sarah Edwards Beatty, 102, of Newton, died Saturday, Jan. 1, 2011, at Catawba Valley Medical Center. A service of remembrance will be held at 3 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2011, at Sherrills Ford Presbyterian Church with the Rev. Dr. Ted Grant and the Rev. Jamie Fox officiating. Burial will follow in the church cemetery.
Residents have a couple more days to pay their taxes without having interest added to their bills for delinquent payments.
The deadline for residents' tax payments is Wednesday.
Catawba County tax administrator Mark Logan said more people paid their tax bills as the year ended, and the county continues to collect payments.
Tax collection increased more than 2 percent this year in comparison to last year.
Logan said, as of Dec. 31, about 70 percent of tax money owed to the county was collected, which increased from about 67 percent collected during 2009.

Class expands artistic horizons
Painting with seniors at the Lenoir County Council on Aging art class has held a significantly important place in the life of Ruth Croom since the class began in 2000 under the teachings of the late Eddie Cox.
Now under Bettie Saville, Croom says new and exciting avenues of learning have opened, expanding her horizons even more into the fine arts.
"My love for nature holds my interest mainly in landscape art," Croom said. "I am, however, very excited to be exposed to drawing, still life, flowers, portraits and experimenting with other mediums."
The class for seniors 55 and older meets from 1 to 4 p.m. Thursdays at the Skinner Center, 112 E. Blount St. If interested, drop by or contact Mineko Holloway, executive director, at 252-527-1545 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Fresh produce options will include okra, sweet corn, baby celery, string beans, blueberries, blackberries, pointed head and Napa cabbage, beets, lettuce, broccoli, squash varieties, bok choy, kale, mustard, spring onions, turnips, cucumbers, radishes and tomatoes.
The next cooking demo by Pat Walston, sous chef and lead instructor at Lenoir Community College's Culinary Arts program, and her students will be July 2 featuring grillin' and chillin'. There will be recipes for your July 4 cookout.

|In the past, Deloitte member firms have focused on achieving size, scale and global reach. However, today's challenges and opportunities call for a new strategic direction. Our vision and strategy for the decade 2010, developed in collaboration with leadership and member firm partners from around the world, focuses on Deloitte becoming the standard of excellence in all of the businesses and services the member firms provide.
Our vision is realized by being highly respected by our broad community of stakeholders, and by being:
For an organization of member firms committed to delivering measurable value—and for a brand striving to be the standard of excellence—we have put in place specific success measures to help assess our collective performance.
It takes vision to create meaningful measures of success. It also takes courage to share the results. Our leadership is committed to being open about the progress toward our global goals. We know that with our member firm people leading the way, anything is possible. Our member firms, partners and employees are all united in the effort to collectively achieve these goals and help turn a shared vision into exciting new eminence for the Deloitte brand.
We regard the development of this vision and strategy as a continuum of the strong business planning processes that exists across the organization. It is not a single event. Rather it will continue to evolve alongside future member firm, function, industry and other planning activities.
