Gary Hamburg, Ph.D.
I studied modern Russian history at Stanford University, under the direction of Terence Emmons. I also conducted research in St. Petersburg, under the direction of Boris Vasil'evich Anan'ich, and in Moscow, under the guidance of Larissa Georgievna Zakharova and Natal'ia Mikhailovna Pirumova. From 1979 to 2004 I taught modern Russian and European history at the University of Notre Dame, where I supervised three doctoral dissertations and helped train many graduate students, in addition to participating in undergraduate teaching in the history department and the university honor's program. Since 2004, I have been at Claremont, splitting my time between courses on modern Russia and modern European history. Early in my career, my research focused on political movements in late imperial Russia, but, starting in the mid 1980s, I began to transform myself into an intellectual historian. This effort at self-transformation was assisted by Andrzej Walicki, the century's most distinguished scholar of Russian thought from the Enlightenment to the present. Most of my articles and books since the mid 1980s belong under the rubric of intellectual, religious and cultural history of Russia. Lately, I have concentrated my attention on three broad themes: the history of Russian philosophy from 1830 to 1930; Lev Tolstoy as a writer, religious thinker and political figure; and the writing of Russian history (or "Russian historiography") in Russia and in the West. I am the proud father of Michael Hamburg, who, after graduating from Harvard (B.A.) and Stanford (M.A. and Ph.D), has taken a job as a cryptographer in San Francisco; and of Rachel Hamburg, a recent graduate from Stanford (B.A. and M.A.), who produces radio broadcasts for the Stanford Story Telling Project. My wife, Nancy Ickler, directs a private charitable foundation supporting elementary and secondary education, public health projects and the parenting program, "Talk With Your Baby."

August 20, 2013
Forty-nine years is normally time for a celebration.
For any person to serve the city that long, there would be a proclamation read at a LaGrange City Council meeting. The mayor and corresponding department head would say nice words. There'd be a pin, attached to the good and faithful servant by a smiling spouse or significant other. At one point, there may even be a party. There could be cake.
The 1964 Caterpillar motor grader has outlasted a number of city employees, more than a few council members, and a number of marriages, but no such celebration is planned for the machine.
Council voted to declare the equipment surplus – along with a list of other items and sell it on a government website. If no one wants it, it will be sold for scrap. In the meantime, it sits at the city's concrete plant, transmission removed, waiting out its perhaps final days.
"It was a good piece of equipment," said David Brown, public works director.
"When I came to work here in 1985 there were still 7 miles of dirt streets," Brown said. "The motor grader was used to keep those streets smooth and passable. It has also been used in the fine grading of construction projects, at the landfill, and snow and ice removal since I came to work here."
Ronnie Cantrell, public works manager for LaGrange, said the machine was used at the landfill until 2007 when the transmission died and the cost to repair it outweighed its value.
Although it was made well before the development of the Internet, it now will go on the website and wait to see if anyone wants it for anything other than scrap.

UPDATED: Scroll down for semi-finalists names!
(Performers slated to perform on the day of Taste of Soul – October 20th)
The StarQuest Singing Competition, a Bakewell Media Production, held auditions last Thursday at the Baldwin Hills/Crenshaw Plaza, to find our community's next singing sensation. Hundreds of contestants gathered to compete onstage at the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, vying for the chance to sing before thousands at the Taste of Soul Family Festival. Among an array of talented artists, semi-finalists were chosen to perform at the Taste of Soul on Saturday, October 20th from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm.
The hopefuls nervously assembled before the sizeable crowd of mall patrons as they waited to take center stage. For many, the stage symbolized more than an opportunity to compete American Idol style in front of judges, Executive Producer, Tony Cornelius (son of Don Cornelius, the legendary Soul Train Creator), Yvette Bailey (Former Soul Train Producer), Talent Executive, Rayva Harrell, (Nickelodeon's All That, The Steve Harvey Morning Show), Brandon I. Brooks (Co-Managing Editor of the Los Angeles Sentinel & Editor of the Watts Times) and Danny J. Bakewell, Sr. (Creator & Executive Producer of StarQuest & Taste of Soul, Chairman of Bakewell Media and Executive Publisher and CEO of the Los Angeles Sentinel & the Watts Times). The quest for stardom would not be complete without the presence of actual stars. Celebrity guest judges including Kel Mitchell, from 90's television series Nickelodeon's Kenan And Kel, Jazz Raycole from the Soul Man TV Series and Marilyn Batchelor, Universal Records Executive, made an appearance. The competition represented an opportunity that could be potentially life-changing.
"My Mom heard about it [the competition] on the radio and called me," said Shandrella Rayford. "She told me this could be it; this could be my chance, so I showed up!"
One 12 year old in particular moved the room with his velvety smooth voice. Convinced that he has what it takes to be the winner, Solomon shared what he thought made him the best in the room.
"I'm going to win because I'm amazing and I know I can sing," the 12 year old boasted.
StarQuest semi-finalists selected to perform at the Taste of Soul on the StarQuest Stage are: Adrian Battle, Beau Williams, Britt J, Carla Bagnerise, Cherose, Corinna Brown, Duprice, Goward Horton, Herman Chamblee, Jacnique, Kyra Smith, LaMarr "Deuce" Lubin, Lloyd Perodin, Mabvuto, Mo-Que, Phallon Brown, Ria Borman, Rory Darvel, Solomon, Tanek Montgomery, Tarsha Rodgers, Tommie Rae Powell.
From the list of semi-finalists, two (2) finalists will be selected. One finalist will perform on the Radio Free KJLH (102.3 FM) stage and the other on The Wave (94.7 FM) stage. They will perform in front of an expected crowd of 250,000 people.
StarQuest House Band will be the House of Vibe All Stars, The StarQuest Guest Performers will be Sledge Grits, Sahiba and Yours Truly.
StarQuest Celebrity Hosts will be Kim Whitley (NBC's Animal Practice), Joe Torry (Def Comedy Jam, House Party, Poetic Justice, Hall of Fame), Ray J (The Rickey Smiley Show, Recording Artist, For the Love of Ray J TV Show), Wesley Jonathan (The Soul Man, City Guys, What I Like About You), Kyle Massey (Dancin w/the Stars, Disney, That's So Raven), Christine Devine (Fox News, Wednesday's Child), Ernest Thomas (Rog on "What's Happenin", Everybody Hates Chris, Malcolm X), Jazz Raycole (The Soul Man, The Nina Simone Story) and Kel Mitchell (Back House Party, Good Burger, Kenan and Kel Show).
In the true spirit of entertainment and community involvement, the quest for our city's finest stars is underway on the StarQuest Stage.
We look forward to seeing you, your friends and family at the StarQuest Stage at the Taste of Soul on October 20th from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm.

OXFORD, Ohio-The Miami University men's basketball team kicked off a three-game homestand Wednesday night against Ohio, but the Bobcats were the ones to take home a victory, defeating the RedHawks 74-62. Junior forward Will Felder had a strong night with a game-high 19 points and team-high 10 rebounds, but it wasn't enough to take down the rivals from Athens.
When the game started it was all Felder, who opened up scoring with a big dunk and followed that up with an offensive rebound and a layup on the next possession. After an Ohio basket, Felder answered with a move in the low post to make the score 6-2. Junior guard Allen Roberts got in on the scoring, accounting for Miami's next five points to make the score 11-7 less than six minutes into the half. The Bobcats quickly responded and tied up the game on a three by D.J. Cooper, the first of three straight Ohio treys that led to an 18-12 Bobcat lead.
Baskets from freshman guard Geovonie McKnight and junior guard Josh Sewell cut the RedHawk deficit to two, 18-16, but the shots stopped falling for Miami long enough for Ohio to add to its lead. With a little over eight minutes until halftime, the Bobcats' lead reached seven, 25-18. Roberts then made the first RedHawk bucket in nearly three minutes, a 3-pointer, which was followed by a monstrous block by Felder that put the crowd on its feet.
The little momentum swing was not enough to reclaim the lead, however, and Miami entered halftime down 36-29 after a shot from D.J. Cooper just before the horn sounded. Roberts led all scorers with 12 points in the first half, with Felder adding nine points.
Sophomore guard Will Sullivan led the RedHawks in rebounds for the first half with four, and Ohio's Ivo Baltic led all players with five. Miami did outrebound the Bobcats 15-10, but shot just 40 percent from the field compared to Ohio's 56 percent.
Felder got the second half going with a pair of free throws, but the Bobcats took advantage of some great shooting to go on a 12-3 run, giving them a 48-34 lead just 3:30 into the second half. Two free throws from Roberts chipped away a little at the Bobcat lead, but they responded with 10 straight points to make the score 58-36, apparently blowing the game wide open.
The RedHawks came back with a 10-2 run, led by Felder and McKnight, to cut in to Ohio's lead a little, bringing the score to 60-46. Despite that, Miami just could not regain enough momentum to cut its deficit to single digits. The clock hit zeros with a final score of 74-62 in favor of Ohio.
Felder's double-double of 19 points and 10 rebounds was the headline for the RedHawks, and McKnight ended up with 11 points, a new career-high for the freshman. Roberts was the other Miami player to end up in double figures with 14 points. Cooper was the Bobcats' leading scorer with 17 points, with Nick Kellogg and Baltic adding 15 and 13 points, respectively.
Each team grabbed 36 rebounds on the night, but Miami did hold an advantage in offensive rebounds of 15-8. The biggest difference came from behind the arc, where Ohio shot nearly 50 percent to Miami's 17 percent.
Miami returns to action Saturday against Ball State. Tip-off is set for 3 p.m.

RYAN VREDE, in Edinburgh, reports Juan de Jongh is likely to run on against Scotland, while Pat Lambie is expected to be retained at flyhalf.
De Jongh impressed for the Stormers in Super Rugby and recently enjoyed an excellent Currie Cup, scoring in the final. Coach Heyneke Meyer has been reluctant to use him. He is concerned primarily about the player's size, worrying that this would compromise him in contact situations at Test level.
However, Meyer strongly suggested he sees Scotland as an opportunity to give the 24-year-old game time.
'We're a relatively young team and haven't played together much, we want to keep some continuity. We respect Scotland and won't just give Test caps away. There won't be a lot of changes but the one that will probably happen is to see Juan come in. He has been knocking hard on the door and deserves a chance,' Meyer said.
'It isn't definite, I want to speak to some of the [senior] players as well, but he probably will start. We'll have a rotation policy in that position. Jaco Taute probably had his best Test against Ireland [at outside centre], and we'll have to see whether we pair Juan and Jaco, who can also play inside centre, and give Jean de Villiers a break. Jean has played with a couple of injuries recently so he needs a rest. Jaco could also play at fullback [replacing Zane Kirchner], but again, I don't want to make too many changes.'
Meyer is also expected to persist with Lambie at flyhalf after praising his performance at Lansdowne Road in difficult conditions. With the coaching staff in search of quality back-up to the injured Johan Goosen, who'll reclaim his starting position if he stays fit for the 2013 Test season, Lambie has the inside lane to be that man.
'I'll probably stick by Pat,' Meyer said. 'It was a difficult start for him because we just didn't have the ball [in the first half]. The second half was a bit of a catch-up. He did some nice things in possession. He has high standards and so do we, so we're looking for an improvement. But he showed some good touches and I want to give him some confidence going forward.'
Meyer said there were likely to be changes on the bench, which could see Elton Jantjies replacing Morne Steyn as pivot cover. Elsewhere Gurthro Steenkamp has recovered from a rib injury that kept him out of the weekend's Test, and will come into the frame to replace Beast Mtawarira, who has been sent home after suffering a recurrence of a heart condition he was treated for earlier this year.
Team doctor Craig Roberts, however, sought to allay fears about Mtawarira's health and playing future. 'He has been treated for an irregular heartbeat in hospital in Dublin. This isn't life threatening or career threatening in any way and he is quite capable of playing with it,' Roberts said.
'Heyneke and I had a meeting with him today and made the decision to send him to Cape Town to have a minor procedure done later this week where they try to isolate and eradicate the cells that are causing the irregular rhythm. He had it done earlier this year, but clearly they didn't get all the cells.
'Anything can set it off, we don't actually know precisely what does. I've also had quite a few players who've had it. Beast has gone into this rhythm a couple of times in the past and we've just managed it. I need to make it clear that he could have played this weekend at no risk.'
Meyer added: 'If it happens again this week we're back to square one. It worries me and it is at the back of his mind. You want guys out there that are totally focussed. He is also on medication that sometimes slows you down. It is also important for him to be with his family. It was a difficult decision, but the right one we believe.'
Jannie du Plessis picked up an ankle injury in Dublin, but Meyer and Roberts indicated that he was likely to recover. 'He is looking good. We'll assess him at training and we are hopeful he will be ready for the weekend.'

Lady Falcon Seniors Wrap Up Regular Season with 3-0 Sweep of St. Andrews; Await Playoff Fate with Other League Matches Today
November 5, 2011
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Playing in their final regular season home match, Pfeiffer University seniors Erin Gray (Sneads Ferry, NC), Colleen Wands (Apex, NC) and Kaci Markham (Asheboro, NC) all played big roles in a 3-0 (25-12, 26-24, 25-16) sweep over St. Andrews University on Saturday afternoon. The win pushes the Lady Falcons to 10-14 overall, 7-10 to end the regular season in league play, now need a victory by Queens over Coker or Mount Olive over Barton to secure the east divisions final playoff spot. St. Andrews ends their season dropping to 2-30, 0-17.
Cate Glendenning (Holly Springs, NC) created set one separation serving up seven-straight points to make it 14-5 with a pair of aces and pair of kills by Kim Amerell (Lynchburg, VA). The Lady Falcons maintained their healthy lead throughout the set as a kill by Kelsey Blauser (Round Rock, TX) and ace by Wands finished off the opening set 25-12.
Trailing 19-15 after a Jordan O'Bryant (Reidsville, NC) kill, the Knights made a late push eventually knotting the contest at 22 after a pair of kills by Celia Duggan (Lugoff, SC). Tied at 24-24, Glendenning and Amerell would post back-to-back kills allowing Pfeiffer to take a 26-24 set and 2-0 match lead.
In the final set of the day, three-straight errors by the Lady Falcons brought St. Andrews to within one at 12-11, but a kill from Gray and OBryant put Pfeiffer back up three en route to the win. Glendenning added another kill while Gray served up another ace before another Blauser kill ended the afternoon.
For Pfeiffer, OBryant led all with nine kills hitting .318 in the win. Glendenning assisted 23 times while popping up a team-high 12 digs. The Knights were led by Duggans half-dozen kills and Megan Nelsons (Edmonds, WA) 16 assists. Allie Garland (Moreno Valley, CA) dug up a match-high 19 digs.
Pfeiffer now holds most of the playoff tiebreakers after Saturdays win, but still need a little help. Should Barton and Coker both win later today, Barton would win the three-way tiebreaker and advance as the number three seed ending the Lady Falcons season. If either Barton or Coker come up short, Pfeiffer holds the advantage in all other tiebreaking scenarios to advance.

For example, realizing the selflessness of phenomena has very little to do with Metta, in the traditional Buddhist model. Certainly, it has much to do with the selflessness of beings--who are a type of phenomena, in a sense. but when we talk about external phenomena, there's very little use for "love," I'd argue.
You say that
about "peering into the void."Even with metta, it is still damaging to the energy within. Not something to be taken lightly or something for anyone less than adept should even consider imo
The traditional Buddhist model, in contrast, talks about the experience of emptiness as liberating. Certainly not damaging. Though if one is attached to one's ego, the ego will certainly feel it to be "damaged."

Support the Museum by becoming a member today!
Richmond served as the capital of the Confederate States of America from May of 1861 until it was surrendered to the Union army on April 3, 1865. On April 4, 1865, Abraham Lincoln came to Richmond. Setting foot on the Richmond docks, Lincoln asked to be taken to Union army headquarters, which was housed in the former executive mansion of the President of the Confederacy. He met briefly with the general commanding the Union forces and also granted an audience to the former Assistant Secretary of War of the Confederacy, Judge John Campbell.
Join Dean Knight, White House Supervisor, to learn the fascinating details of Lincoln's visit to the Confederate White House. The talk will be followed by a tour of the White House of the Confederacy.
The program is free with admission to the Museum and White House. Reservations are required as space is limited. For reservations or questions please contact Kelly Hancock: firstname.lastname@example.com or call toll free: 855-649-1861 ext. 121.

American Sign Language Offerings to ChangePosted Mar. 7, 2011
Starting in Fall 2011, all American Sign Language courses at the Kent campus will be reserved for students enrolled in an ASL major or minor, Deaf Education major, or Educational Interpreting major. The Department of Modern and Classical Language Studies will phase in this restriction in the offerings of American Sign Language in Summer 2011. Offerings of ASL at the other seven KSU campuses will continue to be open to all students, and all Elementary and Intermediate ASL courses will continue to fulfill the College of Arts and Sciences foreign language requirement. Students who wish to pursue American Sign Language to fulfill the foreign language requirement have two options: enroll in a section on one of the regional campuses or (2) explore whether taking a minor in ASL at the Kent campus would be an appropriate program choice.
PLEASE NOTE: Kent campus students who are already enrolled in an Elementary ASL course or Intermediate ASL I for Spring or Summer 2011 will have the opportunity to complete the foreign language requirement at the Kent campus.

The Maldives Marketing and PR Corporation (MMPRC) is the organisation set up and established by the government of His Excellency President Nasheed of the Republic of the Maldives to undertake all the marketing activities for the government Ministries and government departments. Core to its duties and function is the requirement of tourism awareness and promotion. The MMPRC has absorbed the work carried out by the former Maldives Tourism and Promotion Board (MTPB) and actively promote the Maldives as the world's best holiday beach destination to the tourism industry and consumer target audience(s).
We believe the MMPRC's role from a tourism perspective can be summed up by the statement "We create demand for the destination!" (..all supply issues in the industry are consequently handled by the open free market place and is in turn regulated by the Ministry of Tourism).
Request For Proposal:
We require the full time services of a PR and Marketing agency to drive our tourism destination promotions and generate awareness and positive PR and ultimately lead to increased visitor numbers for tourism from your region (country) to the Maldives.
In addition to this, there may also be other potential economic investments briefs such as new resort investments, infra structure contracts and business and technology investment opportunities that require positive PR and awareness.

Do modern interior design styles and children mix? Of course they do! Should your modern home revolve around your children? Why not?! Take a look at how Incorporated Architecture + Design Purposefully designed this small New York City residence to accomodate a stylish modern family. This colorful, contemporary home is like an indoor playground and is both fun and functional.
Pops of colorful pendant lighting (above) are used to brighten up the kitchen, contrasting with the neutral aesthetic.
Satin Nickel with Red Shade ET2 Pendant Light
A rustic modern dining room (above) introduces graphic artwork to create a sophisticated feel with a playful edge. Contemporary glass chandeliers are another fun way to add whimsy to any modern interior design style.
A permanent display for your children's artwork is genius! This bold, blue gallery-wall has the ability to transform as new artwork is created. And it's great for watching Saturday morning cartoons of course.
Bright yellow shines like the sun against this cornflower blue. Implement this color punch in your home by adding artful and functional elements such as modern yellow table lamp. Color always takes the edge off and make your space feel more playful.
Yellow 15-1/2" Whoopsy Desk Lamp
Who would want a room with four boring walls to play in when you could have your own indoor treehouse? The wallpaper (above) and the adorable treehouse are a great way to bring the outdoors in when playing in the real outdoors may not be an option.
The juxtaposition of the view and the interior elements in this kids room (above) are quite captivating. Now the children can have green grass and bright blue skies 365 days a year even if it's just modern green hardwood floors and the bright blue paint. I'm sure the energy is uplifting throughout the cold and gloomy New York Winters.
Of course, as a parent you need to have a place to retreat and this modern, eclectic master bedroom (above) was designed just for that! The reclaimed wood doors and vintage panels add elements of old-world charm and a peaceful aesthetic.
Painted concrete tile adds a playful detail to this organic modern master bathroom. The use of eclectic modern bathroom lights is always a great way to add character to any bathroom.

There's an extreme side of everything, and small spaces are no exception. Enter the nano house. Technically speaking, a nano house is 500 square feet and under, but there are more than a few out there that measure less than 200 square feet. And they teach a surprising lesson.
The trick to living smaller, it would seem, is not how to better fit your life into your home--it's how to better fit your home into your life.
Sunset Cabin (above) by Toronto-based Taylor-Smith Architects is a lakeside vacation space. With cedar cladding, this 275 sq. ft. space draws the outside world in and in the process invites the occupants to spend the majority of their time outside. For spaces like this, recessed lighting saves room while centrally located modern ceiling fans can handle all the cooling needs.
Gregory Paul Johnson credits his 140 sq. ft. home (pictured above) for allowing him to save money, lose weight and generally feel happier overall. Specifically speaking, his small space gives him more time and fewer bills. Sounds like a classic example of getting more for less.
Conversely, for a more is more approach, New York designer Zach Motl stuffs his 178 sq. ft. apartment with an artful arrangement of objects he's meticulously collected over the years (pictured below), giving credence to the notion that the more stuff you put in a room, the bigger it feels.
And then of course, there's the smallest home of all: none at all. Tech nerd, writer and perpetual traveler Andrew Hyde claims only a backpack stuffed with 38 other items to his name. He says the absence of possessions leaves him more engaged with the immediate world around him. He appears to have a thing for things orange and green too (below):
If you're considering a small space, a swing arm desk lamp similar to Zach's tucks away neatly when necessary. And while you're at it, you can always incorporate a stylish table lamp similar to his too--the black lamp shade mixes well with a multicolored or monotone spaces alike.

Most of us may not all consider going to the nano extreme, but small spaces are becoming increasingly en vogue as they're often the most viable options, financially speaking, for would-be owners.

Colorful and cozy are where it's at for January! And this Apple Green Glass George Kovacs Pendant (below) provides both with its soft curves and splash of green. Ms. Colorful & Cozy would love to hang it in her kitchen for that extra kick on cold winter mornings as she makes her breakfast.
Nearby, you can find the Retro Turquoise Metal Round Wall Clock (below). The art-like piece keeps our girl on time as she dashes out the door to the office or dinner, and provides a sweet pop of color wherever she hangs it – from the kitchen to the bathroom to the hallway!
Ms. Colorful & Cozy loves to spend an evening on the couch under a blanket... catching up on her magazines of course! The Zuo Purse Magazine Rack (below) in transparent red keeps all of her subscriptions organized in style and at arms reach.
The Yelena Polished Steel Lite Source Floor Lamp (above) in yellow glass is perfect to light up a dark living room corner. These short winter days give Ms. Colorful & Cozy an excuse to settle in for a night of television and hot chocolate by the fire under its warm glow.
Piping hot tea and the morning paper play a big role in Ms. Colorful & Cozy's daily routine, and she loves to enjoy both at her kitchen table. This set of four Zuo Modern Scope Dining Chairs (above) in red bring a smile to her face each and every time she sees them, and make her look forward to mornings that much more!

I absolutely love pendant lights. They area a fantastic way to add lighting and character to a space without taking up any of your table space or your square footage. I am currently in the market for some great modern pendant lights for a corner in my living room as well as a few to go over my dining room table and I am loving these options.
Olde Bronze Mini Pendant Light
I love this bronze pendant. It looks like the perfect mixture of modern, antique, and industrial. It would look amazing in pretty much any space.
St Charles Jamie Young Pendant Chandelier
This amber glass pendant looks so chic doesn't it? The color is beautiful and the shape is just killing me!
Marcel Metallic Mini Pendant
I am in love with this light. It looks so fancy and fine but without being pretencious. The brass is of course amazing, and the hammered look gives it some texture.
Tetra Tiffany Style Pendant
Going right along with the beloved geometric trend, this light is perfect! The bold white and black pattern and the faceted texture are enough to make a statement but not take over the space.

Hey there,
I am a student, studying Buddhism and I have some questions regarding Gutor Day and the ritual of Lama Dancing and also the pilgrimage site Bodhgaya. I require answers from those with personal experience.
1) what is the purpose of visiting the enlightenment site Bodhgaya?
2) Must the lama dance be performed in a specific sacred space? if so why?
3) -very important- How does both the ritual of lama dancing and the pilgrimage to Bodhgaya help you encounter the numinous?
4) when performing the ritual of lama dancing and participating in Gutor day, and visiting Bodhgaya, does it and how does it change you?
5) How does this ritual and pilgrimage impact on your daily life?
I am aware some of these are personal individual questions regarding your faith and personal feelings and though I dont wish to be rude I am very interested in Buddhism and hope to understand how the spirituality and especially these particular traditions effect you spiritually and emotionally. I would also like to understand, how do you know when you've reached enlightenment? It has been puzzling me for a while.
Thankyou I would greatly appreciate the help

INDIANAPOLIS — As point guard Quinn Cook reiterated what will be required for Duke to successfully navigate Louisville's defensive pressure, the qualities he mentioned Saturday became striking.
Poise and a positive frame of mind were foremost.
Comparing those necessary attributes to the shaken image of Cook from a night earlier, struggling on the court and visibly upset on the bench while Duke dispatched Michigan State, offered quite a contrast as the Blue Devils prepared for today's Midwest Region final at Lucas Oil Stadium.
"I just think I faded away from being a leader," Cook said of his scoreless, two-assist, three-turnover performance in Duke's 71-61 victory Friday night in the Sweet 16, during which he played 21 minutes, his second-lowest total of the season, while being matched opposite Michigan State's Keith Appling.
Another such unproductive outing would figure to create dire consequences today against Louisville in the Elite Eight.
Cook, who finished 0-for-5 from the field Friday night, played less than five minutes of the second half against Michigan State, as Duke increasingly turned to backup Tyler Thornton instead.
In the game's final 16:47, Cook was on the court for only 95 seconds. And on the Duke bench, his discouraged posture and mannerisms prompted consoling from staff assistants Jeff Capel and Nate James.
"Turning the ball over, missing shots, letting Appling score on me a couple times," Cook said, "I was frustrated in myself. I had my moment. Coach Capel got me out of it, and I was consumed with winning.
"Duke stepped up (Friday night). We played a heck of a game. And as long as Duke is winning, I'm fine."
Cook said he spent parts of Saturday morning studying videotape with Capel and identifying personal improvements – assertiveness emerged as a key – that could return him to the form that ranked him second in the Atlantic Coast Conference in assists and fifth in steals at the end of the regular season.
"Quinn is one of those guys, he's going to brush it off. He's going to come back strong," Duke guard Rasheed Sulaimon said. "We had to put our arm around him and tell him, 'Come on, it's going to be OK.'
"But (Saturday) he's been a totally different person. He's upbeat and that shows his character. Through adversity I think that's where he shines the most. He's going to bounce back from this and he's going to be better."
When Duke defeated Louisville in late November in the Bahamas, Cook's 15 points, six assists and four rebounds in the tournament championship game helped him earn Battle 4 Atlantis Most Valuable Player honors.
That's certainly a constructive memory to carry into today's Midwest Region final against the Cardinals.
Another supportive piece of advice is the next-play approach that Duke coaches have preached to Cook. Rather than allowing a missed shot or turnover to fester, respond with defense or leadership to move on from the mistake.
"Quinn knows we need him and Quinn's going to be fine," Sulaimon said.
Consider Cook more than aware of the circumstances in play.
"My confidence and my jumper and my ability to make plays for others hasn't been there," Cook said. "I don't think I've been aggressive like I've been earlier in the year, in the middle of the ACC. But I know I've got to be at the top of my game (today)."

About Quiet Company
Quiet Company is Rock Band of the Year at SXSW
There's been nothing quiet about the continued rise of Quiet Company. After all, when you make as much noise as this dynamic indie rock band has, and just happen to hail from Texas (a state where everything is bigger), it's pretty hard to stay under the radar for long.
We're sure you've heard of bands like the Beatles, Arcade Fire and Weezer. Quiet Company has drawn instant comparison to these names and more. In fact, critics from Paste Magazine, NPR, the New York Times, Austin Chronicle and others have showered praise on the band for their energetic live shows and anthemic sound.
You know there's one event Quiet Company was definitely penciled in for in 2014, and it was SXSW. Of course they went on to win Rock Band of the Year at the festival, adding on another in a slew of trophies already taken home from the Austin Music Awards (Band of the Year, Album of the Year, Rock Band of the Year, Indie Band of the Year and Song of the Year…just to mention a few).
The praise has literally been coming in all directions since Quiet Company's 2011 release, "We Are All Where We Belong." They followed it up with the 2013 album re-release, "A Dead Man on My Back: Shine Honesty Revisited," and are back in the studio working on their next full-length project (said to be called "Transgressor."
A posting on their website back on June 11, 2014 announced that "Transgressor" was done and that the band was working on a release schedule for the album. Though no date was given, they are hoping for a fall release to showcase the addition of two new members to the band. The album is backed by new drummer Evan Smoker and keyboardist Bill Gyrta. Quiet Company believes "Transgressor" will be right there leading the way as rock 'makes a return to form' in 2014.
Nothing quiet about Quiet Company (Created August 22, 2013)
Known for their explosive live shows, Taylor Muse and his bandmates make up Quiet Company, an Austin pop-rock band formed in 2005 and now receiving rave reviews and shattering attendance records at outdoor festivals.
If it seems like the time has come for Muse and the band…. It has. The early success from albums like "Shine Honesty," "Everyone You Love Will be Happy Soon" and "Songs for Staying In" was magnified upon the release of 2011's "We Are All Where We Belong." With a strong core of Tommy Blank (Guitar), Matt Parmenter (Bass), Jeff Weathers (Drums) and Cody Ackors (Trombone), the album's expansive arrangements and anthemic qualities served as a cut away from past releases and a bridge to the breakout these guys had been waiting for.
Where have you seen Quiet Company lately? They've been pretty much everywhere, playing late night talk shows, outdoor concert series, performing at the Austin City Limits Festival and soaking up the glowing reviews from critics and fans alike. They finished 2012 with a sold-out showcase at CMJ 2012, touring the U.S. before returning to Austin to release their Christmas EP "Winter is Coming." A few months later, the band re-recorded "Shine Honesty" and re-titled the project "A Dead Man On My Back: Shine Honesty Revisited." It was released on April 9, 2013 with two new tracks, as well as a complete remastering of the entire album.
Summer 2013 saw the release of the "Are You A Mirror?" EP, and Quiet Company is now working on another full-length album. In between all the recording, they played SXSW 2013, Canadian Music Fest 2013 and continue to tour the US and Canada.

How To Choose The Best Office Furniture?
Choosing the best
affordable office furniture
is anything but easy, given the fact that you need to focus on furniture that is functional, comfortable and practical at the same time. It is crucial to choose the type of furniture that you feel the most comfortable using, the one that makes you the most productive and that matches your needs – and the needs of your employees. That being said, here you will find several useful pointers that should help you make the best choice:
1. Evaluate The Overall Office Space
First and foremost, it is important to take precise measurements of your office and see exactly how much space you have at your disposal, as the last thing you want or need is to end up with furniture that is too big for your office. Never try to estimate the existing space, and make sure to take into account the doorways and the windows that your future furniture will need to fit around as well.
2. Decide On Your Budget
Now that you know the office measurements, the next step is to decide on a fixed budget. Fortunately, there are numerous companies that sell
office furniture in Wellington
and around the area, therefore you should have no problem finding exquisite yet affordable furniture. Besides this, it often happens that online retailers have lower prices, so make sure to surf the Internet and check them – not to mention that you can also get some inspiration from
specialised office furniture
3. What Will You Use Your Office For?
This is another crucial detail that you need to take into consideration, as the way you use your office dictates the type of furniture you will be needing. For instance, will you use it mostly for computer work? If so, then it is essential to opt for a desk that comes with a CPU-space underneath it and that comes with built-in wiring holes as well.
On the other hand, if you plan to use your office both for work and for meetings, then it is recommended to opt for an L-shaped desk that will help you accommodate your clients/employees while still looking professional. In addition to the desk, some shelving or overhead cabinets may also be needed for storing papers, books, spreadsheets and such. The secret is to choose the type of furniture that offers maximum storage within the smallest amount of space.
4. Choose The Right Type Of Desk Surface
As you may already know, there are three main types of desk surfaces to choose from: the laminate one, the metal surface and the wood or veneer surface. Laminate desks are the most popular ones, as they are cost-effective and they come with a plethora of different customisation options, while the metal desk surfaces tend to be slightly more expensive, but also more durable at the same time and suitable for high traffic areas. Wood desks are elegant, attractive and perfect for the office of a CEO or a company manager, although this type of office furniture does require more care and maintenance.

this wiki
Multiple star systems are a form of the standard star system model which contain more than one active star.

Trinary star systemEdit
A trinary star system is a star system made up of three stars. Two or three of the stars may orbit around a common center of gravity, also known as their barycenter. Often, trinary stars consist of a binary pair that orbit each other in relatively close proximity with a third star that is further away, in a more "planetary" style orbit.
In 2372, Jadzia Dax asked for Captain Benjamin Sisko's permission to send a science team to investigate a trinary star system. Sisko told her the team could take the USS Rubicon. (DS9: "Accession")

|Patient Safety Initiatives and Stars Spotlighted at Johns Hopkins Medicine Patient Safety Summit
Beth Carberry, Director of Pharmacy, Lisa Moore, Director of the Heart Center and Interim Director of Pediatric Medicine (8 North & South), highlighted the "Medication Reconciliation: Optimizing Processes Leveraging Technology" project that received an ACH Quality Cup for a 100-Day Workout in 2012. The Medication Reconciliation Team collected data regarding medication list discrepancies during the admission process, when parents are asked to provide information on their child's medications.
The team trialed a new process in the Clinical Decision unit to standardize the medication list and improve completion time, accuracy, physician satisfaction and overall safety and quality. Pam Neely and Michelle Smith, M.D. also led this patient safety initiative.
NICU Director Cindy Driscoll presented "Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) without Sedation in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Patients," a project that received a 2012 ACH Quality Improvement Award. In this collaboration by NICU, Radiology and Anesthesiology, many of the NICU patients who needed an MRI were able to undergo the procedure without sedation through the innovative use of an immobilizer and pre-procedure feeding, enabling the infant to sleep during the scan. The percentage of infant brain MRIs performed without sedation and contrast was 42.9 at the start of the study and now exceeds 85 percent, and the process is now used with inpatients, ambulatory and Emergency Center patients up to age two.
Patient Safety Stars is a new program introduced at this year's Patient Safety Summit, and two All Children's staff members received this honor: Juan Deida of Environmental Services and Rebecca (Becky) Graham of the Patient Access Service Center. Both recognized a situation where a patient required prompt assistance and stepped in to help keep the patient safe and receive help as quickly as possible.

- Favorite College Team University of North Carolina
What you should know
UNC '09 Grad
Fan of:
Carolina Panthers
Tarheel Football
Tarheel Basketball
Charlotte Bobcats
Favorite Current Panthers:
1. DeAngelo Williams - Loved him at Memphis since he was a freshmen. Always used him on NCAA PS2 games where he was dirty. My friends always wondered why I would choose Memphis prior to the game, but they always knew who DeAngelo Williams was afterward. I thought DeAngelo was going to be a top 5 draft pick in the draft, meaning we had no chance at this stud and my favorite player. I could not believe he fell to us at the bottom of the 1st round. It has been wonderful ever since watching this amazing player.
2. Julius Peppers - I am a huge Tarheel Football fan and Julius Peppers emerged in the late 1990s. He took over games at UNC. In one game against Texas, it was pretty much Julius against their offense and he almost pulled it off, forcing fumbles, getting a pick, and scoring a touchdown on a long return. Seeing a DE take over games was unprecedented in my football watching career. He reminded me of film of Lawrence Taylor, but he was even better. Also loved seeing him play on the basketball team and in the Final Four. I could not believe the Panthers were so fortunate to get him in 2002. He is the blessing of the 1-15 season and it was well worth watching us find a new way to lose every week in order to have him. I pray we sign him to a new contract. His effect on games in the NFL is amazing. Even when he does not get the sacks, you can see the attention that the other team has to give him. There is no other player like him and he deserves a monster contract. If you do not agree, then talk to Jon Gruden and the rest of the NFC South coaches who have to face him twice a year.
3. Chris Gamble - Chris Gamble caught my eye at Ohio State. He played both ways for the majority of a season and you don't see that much anymore. He was an amazing talent in college at both WR (his more natural position) and Cornerback. I was shocked to see him fall to us at the bottom of the 1st round. I thought he was a top 10 talent, but thankfully, his rawness at the CB position caused him to drop in the 1st round and we did not let him fall any farther. He has been great so far in the NFL and will get even better as time goes on and he further matures into the position. He has taken way too much flack from the common Panther fan who does not understand the CB position or his background.
4. Jon Beason - I had no idea who Jon Beason was in college and this irked me when I saw his name called in the draft, since I consider myself a big college football fan (Coincidentally, I did not know who Dan Morgan was either). I was wanting Greg Olsen and I was thrilled at the trade down because I thought this meant we were getting the TE later in the 1st round. Needless to say, I was pretty upset and surprised at seeing Beason's selection. After his rookie season, I was not so upset anymore. Beason is such a player that he eased the replacement of one of my all-time favorites in Dan Morgan. Beason is a natural leader and football player. I am looking forward to his progression and play in the next few years as he becomes one of the best middle linebackers in NFL history.
5. Matt Moore - Matt Moore caught my eye at Oregon State soon after he became the starter following Derek Anderson. He played great at this little watched school (at least on the East Coast), especially in a bowl game, where he led an amazing 4th quarter comeback. I was surprised to see us get him off waivers after the Cowboys dropped him. He reminds me of Jake in being a natural leader and gunslinger. His first NFL pass was a completed 40+ yard bomb in relief of David Carr. I could not believe it. I loved watching him in the last few games of 2007. I still believe he is our quarterback of the future (although I hope Jake remains our starter until he is in his late 30s [Jake is a QB who does not rely on his talent to play the game so his aging should not diminish his play]).
Favorite Past Panthers:
1. Dan Morgan
2. Steve Beuerlein
3. Wesley Walls
4. Patrick Jeffers
5. Lamar Lathon

A MAN who discovered a 48-year-old bar of Kendal Mint Cake in his loft believes it may be the oldest-surviving bar of the famous confectionery.
Peter Truelove, 68, of Windermere, bought the bar of Robert Wiper's Original Mint Cake when he and a friend visited Kendal as 21-year-olds in 1964.
The pair were on a 'boy's adventure' which took them from their homes in Kent to John O'Groats, the most northerly point on the Scottish mainland.
"We travelled the distance in an Austin 7 and it took us a week," said Mr Truelove, of Hill Top. "The car only did 35mph at best and it was blizzard weather – the snow was coming into the car.
"We called at Kendal on the way back and we'd heard about the mint cake, so when we saw some we thought we'd buy a bar."
Mr Truelove said he was not sure why he had kept the bar in a box in his loft.
"It was on a shelf as a memento of the trip but it's been in the loft since we moved to Windermere 16 years ago," he said. The bar is still in reasonable condition although some of the sugar is seeping through the wrapping.
Although the original Wipers recipe is still used, the company was sold to Romneys in 1987.
Managing director John Barron said: "We have been making it all these years and I don't think we have any that old – it's impressive.
"It wouldn't do him any harm to eat it now but I don't expect it would taste very nice."
Mr Truelove said what was also interesting to discover was the journal he wrote while travelling, which documented the stop-off in Kendal. He said: "I had to record everything we spent because my friend and I were splitting the cost of the trip. It's funny now to look back and see that someone offered to sell us a car engine and gear box for £2.50, and that 15 litres of petrol was 60p.
"Unfortunately, the price of the mint cake wasn't included, although I did write that we'd visited and purchased it."
TWO thirds of the red kites released in Grizedale Forest last summer have survived the harsh winter.
Wildlife rangers believe that around 20 of the 30 birds released in the Forestry Commission's three-year re-introduction programme made it through the winter and are still in Cumbria, or nearby counties. Between five and eight of the birds are believed to be living around Grizedale and the Rusland Valley, with another three to five inhabiting the Kirkby Moor area near Ulverston.
Four more Grizedale red kites have been spotted by RSPB experts at feeding stations in Dumfries and Galloway – the furthest known movement is by the bird tagged as number four, which has flown 120km north west into Scotland.
"The birds are doing pretty much exactly as we expected, which is very encouraging," said Iain Yoxall, Forestry Commission wildlife ranger. "We are more confident that these birds will make it to adults now they have made it through a harsh winter. Sadly we lost a few birds but that is natural and why we have to release the numbers that we did."
The 30 red kites released from a secret location in Grizedale Forest in August last year had coloured tags on each wing. An orange tag on their left wing shows they are from Grizedale, and blue tags on their right wings indicate that they were released in 2010. Some birds were also fitted with radio transmitters to help with monitoring.
Mr Yoxall, who has been following the birds' movements around Cumbria, said the help he has received from the public had been invaluable. "I have been radio tracking the birds but sightings from members of the public have been a fantastic help and greatly appreciated. This has been very important because it helps us find the birds and backs up our radio tracking results to give us a more robust picture of their movements. We hope that the public will continue letting us know when and where they make sightings of the red kites."
This year's birds will hatch in May and are likely to be released into Grizedale Forest in August. The red kites being introduced into Grizedale are the product of a reintroduction programme that took place in Northamptonshire in the 1980s.
Red kites were almost eradicated from the UK following changes in farming practices and human persecution between the 16th and 19th centuries. But they managed to cling on in Wales, and their numbers recovered slowly thanks to the actions of local conservationists

I am terrible at updating this site. For the past several months I've been focusing on work with Tuts+ and other wonderful companies and clients.
You can check out weekly tutorials and articles in Tuts+'s Design and Illustration section. You can also see such tutorials at Vectips.com (mine will have a byline after the tutorial).
Other companies I've freelanced for will have work announcements in a few months or next year (depending on when things are published or hit shelves).
Expect a proper site update once I've caught up on work and clear up my schedule a bit (hoping within the next month).
I also moved quite recently, so the whole summer/early fall has been busy busy busy.

The Recognition of Parentage ("ROP") Form is an official state form with a fairly easy and inexpensive process that can be used to establish the legal relationship between a father and his child when a child's father and mother are not married. You can download the Recognition of Parentage Form and Instructions, which is made available by the MN Dept. of Human Services. Or, you can get a copy at your local County Child Support office. Hospitals may also provide the form to the parents at the child's birth. NOTE: If you have any doubt about the identity of the biological father, do not sign the ROP form.
The Recognition of Parentage form must be signed by the mother and father in front of a Notary and it must be filed with the MN Dept. of Health. To learn more, read the MN "ROP" law MN Statutes § 257.75.
NOTE: When a child is born, if the mother was married to a man who is not the biological father, the ROP form alone is not enough to establish the biological father as the "legal" father. The mother's husband must also sign a separate form called the Husband's Non-Paternity Statement within one year after the child is born.
Properly completing the ROP process, including the Husband's Non-Paternity Statement where applicable, establishes a "legal" relationship between the father and child.
Need copies of a ROP that was filed? The MN Dept. of Health website (scroll down the page) has a form you can download, fill out and send them along with a fee to get a certified copy of a previoulsy filed ROP.
Before signing a Recognition of Parentage form or Husband's Non-Paternity Statement, you should understand what it means to be a "legal" father and what rights and duties you might receive or be giving up by signing the forms. Establishing paternity is important for purposes of inheritance, adoption, benefits, parenting time, financial support, health care, school issues, and other reasons. We strongly encourage you to discuss any questions you have with a lawyer. See Find a Lawyer.
For more detailed information on the process involving a Recognition of Paternity form, click the following links to see helpful information booklets:
It is possible to revoke the ROP within 60 days after both parents sign the form. To revoke the ROP, the mother or father must sign a written revocation in front of a notary and file it with the State. See the law at MN Statutes § 257.75 subd.2. The ROP can also be set aside by court order in limited circumstances. There are strict time limits to do this, so if you want to ask for a court order to revoke a ROP, get legal help right away. The court website does not have the forms to revoke a ROP or to ask for a court order revoking a ROP. You can get forms to handle a paternity case from your attorney, a legal publisher, or you could check with your local court administrator to find out if they distribute forms at the courthouse. You could also visit your local law library.
The Recognition of Parentage form does not give any custody or parenting time to the father. The mother still has sole custody under Minnesota law. A parent or the county attorney must start a court action to request an order for custody, parenting time, or child support. You can learn about Child Custody & Parenting Time or Child Support on this website.

"World War Z," a horror-action picture about a worldwide zombie epidemic, contains a number of stupendous sequences. In one, a traffic jam in Philadelphia has turned roads into parking lots, and people suddenly start emerging from their cars, snarling and looking dead and hungry and maniacal. In another scene, hordes of the undead swarm a gigantic wall built to protect Israel, climbing over each other like ants until they reach the top and start jumping on the unsuspecting civilians below.
And in perhaps the best setpiece of the film, a man aboard an airliner in mid-flight emerges from the plane's rear bathroom and starts chomping on people, the zombie disease spreading through coach and making its way toward first-class in a matter of seconds, like a runaway fire. Such scenes make director Marc Forster's attempt to adapt Max Brooks' unfilmable novel — an oral history of mankind's war against the undead — a fun and scary blast.
But then there's the rest of the movie. Instead of cramming the book's multitude of characters into a two-hour film, "World War Z" focuses on Gerry (Brad Pitt), a retired United Nations official who must leave his wife and two daughters to help the government figure out where this rapidly spreading virus came from (and, more importantly, how to stop it). Instead of a giant-sized episode of "The Walking Dead," though, "World War Z" plays a lot more like Steven Soderbergh's "Contagion," which contains no zombies but features the sight of Gwyneth Paltrow's face being peeled back from her skull, an image far more disturbing than anything you'll see in this well-made but timid picture.
A lot of gore in horror movies today is purely gratuitous: The recent "Evil Dead" remake used so much blood, for example, the overkill was almost comical. But things are different when the subject turns to flesh-eating zombies. The threat of unspeakable mutilation and violence — the idea of being eaten alive — is what makes them terrifying (the fact they're so hard to kill is just a bonus). And "World War Z," because it cost a reported $200 million, plays things extra-safe to make sure 12-year-olds can see it along with the grown-ups. For a story with so much death and mayhem, the film is practically bloodless. In one scene, a character's hand gets chopped off, and the camera shies away so quickly you can't even tell what's happened until a few scenes later.
The concept of a single man being able to criss-cross the globe in time to stop such a rapidly spreading virus is hokey enough, but you buy it because he's Pitt, who is just as good in the tender scenes with his family as he is exploring the spooky corridors of an abandoned medical facility. But "World War Z" repeatedly chickens out, more afraid of offending viewers with delicate sensibilities than earning its budget back. There are some tremendous images in the movie, but there isn't a single good fright, and the last 20 minutes are so annoyingly predictable that unintentional laughs start to creep in.
The filmmakers go for suspense, but they condescend to the audience, as if we hadn't seen all this before. And although there are some initial feints at using zombies as a metaphor for third-world issues and cultural differences, the picture forgets all that stuff by the final reel.
"World War Z" opens with an undeniable bang. But if this is the way the world ends, we're going out with a whimper.
