Saab has been awarded the latest in a series of contracts to further development activities on its Gripen C/D fighter for the Swedish air force.
To run until early 2013, the Swedish kronor 152 million ($23.8 million) deal will enhance the navigation system capabilities of the Gripen in its version 19 operating standard, which is now involved in NATO's Operation Unified Protector over Libya.
Eight Gripen Cs have flown more than a combined 180 sorties from Sigonella air base in Sicily since early April, with their current emphasis being on providing digital reconnaissance imagery. The aircraft also carry laser designator pods, but have not dropped weapons or provided targeting services for other nations' aircraft during the campaign.
Swedish air force inspector general Maj Gen Anders Silwer briefed journalists at the show on Wednesday, less than a week after the nation's parliament extended his service's "Karakal" contribution to the Libya campaign by a further three months. The new mandate will see five Gripens perform reconnaissance missions over a wider area of Libyan territory. "Before we had a little bit of a limitation, but now we are more integrated into the process - except from the targeting," Silwer said.
Silwer said its Gripens have performed well so far in what is Sweden's first such operational commitment in 50 years, and that the first use of a new Link 16 datalink capability has added a valuable capability to the type's interoperability.
Meanwhile, Silwer revealed that the first pilots for Sweden's future fleet of 15 Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk utility helicopters began training to operate the type at the US Army's Fort Rucker site in Alabama on 20 June. Deliveries will commence next year under the deal, which will cover for the late availability of the nation's NH Industries NH90 transports in another current theatre of operations.
"On 1 April 2013 we will be in Afghanistan [with Black Hawks]; or I won't be here," said Silwer.

Final Score: Louisiana Tech 24, Nevada 20
Reno, NV (Sports Network) - Colby Cameron found Taulib Ikharo for an eight-yard
touchdown pass with 51 seconds remaining, capping a dramatic fourth quarter
comeback as Louisiana Tech beat Nevada 24-20 in Western Athletic Conference
play from Mackay Stadium.
Louisiana Tech (7-4,5-1 WAC) trailed 20-3 early in the fourth quarter, but
Cameron threw three touchdown passes in the frame to lead the Bulldogs back.
Cameron completed 25-of-45 passes for 355 yards and three touchdowns.
Cody Fajardo passes for 212 yards and one touchdown for Nevada (6-4,4-1), and
also led the Wolfpack in rushing with 110 yards on 22 carries. Mark Lampford
added 109 yards rushing.
Fajardo hit Rishard Matthews on a 20-yard touchdown pass with 45 seconds left
in the first quarter, capping a 10-play, 78-yard touchdown drive. That served
as the only score of the first half between the teams. Louisiana Tech punted on
six of its seven first half possessions.
Nevada extended its lead to 10-0 with 9:27 left in the third quarter, as Jake
Hurst hit a 19-yard field goal. Louisiana Tech answered on the next drive,
marching 71 yards in 12 plays to set up a 29-yard field goal from Matt Nelson.
On the ensuing possession, Hurst made it 13-3 with a 24-yard field goal, and
Stefphon Jefferson made it 20-3 with a four-yard touchdown run with 13:01
Cameron capped a 11-play, 84-yard drive with a nine-yard touchdown pass to
Quinton Patton to pull the Bulldogs within 10 with just over nine minutes
Cameron engineered another impressive drive on Louisiana Tech's next
possession, marching the Bulldogs 89 yards and finding Myles White for a 14-
yard touchdown pass with 5:56 remaining.
Nevada punted on the ensuing possession, pinning Louisiana Tech at its own
eight-yard line with 2:29 remaining. Cameron converted a 3rd-and-12 call by
finding Hunter Lee for a 23 yard gain, then followed up with two completions of
35 and 25 yards to set up Louisiana Tech at the Nevada 11-yard line. Tow plays
later, he found Ikharo for the game-winning score.
Fajardo was sacked twice on the Wolfpack's final possession to end the game.

Nile Therapeutics Reports 2009 First Quarter Financial Results
Update on CD-NP
In March, Nile announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had placed all clinical studies relating to its lead product, CD-NP, on clinical hold. In a letter sent to Nile, and in a follow-up teleconference, the FDA requested additional data on Nile's recently completed Phase 2a clinical study and modifications to CD-NP's current Investigator Brochure (IB). Nile submitted a full response to the FDA in April and anticipates a response from the FDA by the end of May.
Following resolution of the FDA's clinical hold, Nile intends to initiate a 30-patient single-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study (CT005) designed to provide additional information on the safety and tolerability of CD-NP when infused for up to 72 hours in patients with acute heart failure and renal function insufficiency. Additionally, CT005 contains several exploratory efficacy endpoints which may provide clinical evidence of the most compelling differentiating part of the CD-NP hypothesis, specifically that CD-NP enhances renal function in the acute heart failure. The dosing of CT005 is expected to be completed by the end of 2009.
Nile has undertaken substantial cost saving measures, including the reduction of headcount, designed to focus available resources toward the CD-NP program and maximize Nile's ability to complete CT005.
Financial Results
For the first quarter of 2009, Nile reported a net loss of approximately

From Barnes & NobleThe Barnes & Noble Review
Whether you're a longtime fan of the series (either the previous 12 books or the popular PBS television series Rumpole of the Bailey) or seeking an introduction to John Mortimer's disheveled yet surprisingly perceptive Old Bailey hack, the verdict is clear: Rumpole and the Primrose Path is a winner! Six stories grace this diverting collection, including the title yarn, which was nominated for an Edgar Award for Best Short Story. Effects of the heart attack that laid Rumpole low in Rumpole Rests His Case still linger as the wily old barrister plots his escape from the Primrose Path convalescent home. But a cry for help from a favorite nurse accused of deadly wrongdoing offers Rumpole his chance to return to work -- and foils his colleagues' plan to "celebrate his life" before he's finished with it. Soon a gentlemanly offer (inspired by a New Year's resolution his wife insisted he undertake) gives Rumpole a new perspective on crime in the streets. Then, though grumbling about the scarcity of cases requiring his attention, Rumpole rebalances the scales of justice, reexamines the right to privacy, locates a vanishing juror, and redeems a tarnished reputation. John Mortimer's cleverly crafted plots and irreverent observations prove Rumpole is back in top form when it comes to irritating wrongheaded judges and turning the tables on wrongdoers. Sue Stone

Les Miles can only hope that LSU's preseason camp is a lot calmer this season than it was a year ago. ''I hope we learned some things from the distractions last year,'' Miles said Wednesday as the Tigers reported for August practices. ''My greatest hope (for camp) is a very, comfortable forecast for sustained focus and learning. ''But, I always expect some crisis along the way,'' Miles continued. ''In my first fall (2005), there was (Hurricane) Katrina. No matter how smooth the weather may be today, something can come up.'' When Miles greeted his team 12 months ago, he was dealing with an unexpected change in offensive coordinators and the suspension of one of his returning wide receivers. Offensive coordinator Steve Kragthorpe was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease right before the beginning of August practice and gave up that role. Offensive line coach Greg Studrawa assumed the coordinator's duties with Kragthorpe shifting to quarterbacks coach. Wide receiver Russell Shepard ...

VIJAYAWADA: Shooter Gagan Narang is in a dilemma as he is yet to get a clear picture of how to mop up the Rs. 40 lakh required for training and participating in tournaments before the Beijing Olympics in August.
Narang will kick-off his training programme from February 10 with a 45-day camp at Sydney.
He will then take part in the Asian air rifle championship and the World Cups in China, Germany and Italy.
"I will fly back to Germany for another intensive training camp for 45 days. After spending a week in Malaysia, I will leave for the Olympics," he said.
"I have submitted a proposal to the Central Government. I do not know how much I will be granted. I will have to fend for myself to mobilise the remaining amount. Not having sponsors is the biggest handicap for the growth of shooting, which is considered a medal-winning sport at the Olympics," he said.
Narang will be taking part in three events at the Olympics. "I will take part in 10m air rifle, 50m rifle three positions and 50m prone. The prospect of winning a medal is high as I am competing in three events," he said.
Narang felt that Indians were good at mind games such as chess, shooting and archery and there was need for support from both the Central and State Governments.
He also emphasised the need for more shooting ranges in Andhra Pradesh.

The Wind Rises The Wind Rises is written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, whose Spirited Away won an Oscar. The Japanese animator has announced this will be his final feature film. A fictionalised biography of Jiro Horikoshi, who designed the Zero fighter plane used by Japan in World War II, the animated historical fantasy attracted controversy in Japan, with some viewers labelling it the work of a "traitor". The first Miyazaki film to be centred on an historical figure and real events, it is short on the whimsy for which he's known. Released 20 February in Russia, 21 February in the US and 6 March in New Zealand. Omar Nominated for this year's Oscar for best foreign language film, this Palestinian drama is both a thriller and love story set against the backdrop of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It is directed by Hany Abu-Assad, who earned an Academy Award nomination for his controversial 2005 film Paradise Now which depicted the recruitment and training of two suicide bombers. Omar features amateur actors and follows a young Palestinian man trying to evade Israeli security services while earning the love of his girlfriend. Released 21 February in the US. RoboCop Facing criticism from fans of Paul Verhoeven's 1987 original, this remake of the violent thriller is directed by Brazilian director José Padilha, who carried off the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival in 2008 for Elite Squad. Set in 2028 Detroit, it stars Joel Kinnaman (The Killing, Safe House) as the part-human, part-robot police officer alongside Gary Oldman and Michael Keaton. Released 5 February in France, 6 February in Australia and 12 February in the US. The Monuments Men A Dirty Dozen for art historians: George Clooney co-wrote and directed this WWII movie based on a true story, in which he stars as the man who puts together a mission to rescue works of art stolen by the Nazis. The team of curators and architects who are dropped into occupied territory includes Matt Damon, Bill Murray, John Goodman and Hugh Bonneville, while Cate Blanchett also appears as a French Resistance operative. Released 7 February in the US, 14 February in Sweden and 20 February in Singapore. Last of the Unjust Claude Lanzmann left someone out of his landmark, nine-and-a-half-hour film Shoah. The 1985 documentary, which eschewed historical footage for first-hand testimony, did not feature the controversial figure Benjamin Murmelstein. He was the last president of the Jewish Council at Theresienstadt, the 'model' concentration camp used by the Nazis to disguise the nature of the Holocaust, and he spoke to Lanzmann on camera for the first time in 1975. If Lanzmann had included Murmelstein's testimony, he told The Guardian, "Shoah would have had to be 20 hours long." Lanzmann's 1975 interviews with the man who called himself "the last of the unjust" are woven with visits to the sites that marked Murmelstein's wartime experiences in this documentary. Released 30 January in Israel and 7 February in the US. Labor Day Jason Reitman (Juno, Up in the Air, Thank you for Smoking) directs Josh Brolin as an escaped prisoner who takes shelter in Kate Winslett's home. Labor Day is based on a novel by Joyce Maynard, who submitted her manuscript to publishers under an anonymous identity after her 2008 memoir sparked controversy (it revealed details of a relationship with JD Salinger when she was 18 and he 53). Released 31 January in the US, 6 February in Australia and 13 February in Portugal. Child's Pose The winner of the Golden Bear at the 2013 Berlin Film Festival, this study of one mother's obsessive love blurs the lines between compassion and self-deception. Cornelia (Luminiţa Gheorghiu) tries to keep her son out of jail after his reckless driving kills a child. Both a psychological drama and a comment on post-Ceaușescu Romania, as Cornelia attempts to bribe her way out of trouble, this is the latest film in the Romanian New Wave to win over critics and film festival juries. Released 5 February in Belgium, 19 February in the US and 7 March in Poland. The Lunchbox Winner of the Critics Week Viewers Choice Award at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival, this is a feelgood love story enabled by Mumbai's incredible system for delivering lunchboxes to the city's workers. Lonely housewife Ila (Nimrat Kaur) sends a tiffin box by courier to her disinterested husband, but it ends up at the desk of Sajaan, played by Irrfan Khan (Life of Pi). Played out through notes hidden in the box, their romance was a hit at the Indian box office; there was an outcry when the film was not chosen as the country's Foreign Language Oscar entry. Released 14 February in Poland and 28 February in the US.

More About I Shall Not Hate by Izzeldin AbuelaishOverviewBy turns inspiring and heart-breaking, hopeful and horrifying, I Shall Not Hate is Izzeldin Abuelaish's account of an extraordinary life. A Harvard-trained Palestinian doctor who was born and raised in the Jabalia refugee camp in the Gaza Strip and "who has devoted his life to medicine and reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians" (New York Times), Abuelaish has been crossing the lines in the sand that divide Israelis and Palestinians for most of his life - as a physician who treats patients on both sides of the line, as a humanitarian who sees the need for improved health and education for women as the way forward in the Middle East. And, most recently, as the father whose daughters were killed by Israeli soldiers on January 16, 2009, during Israel's incursion into the Gaza Strip. His response to this tragedy made news and won him humanitarian awards around the world. Instead of seeking revenge or sinking into hatred, Abuelaish called for the people in the region to start talking to each other. His deepest hope is that his daughters will be "the last sacrifice on the road to peace between Palestinians and Israelis."

Born in a refugee camp in 1955, Palestinian physician Abuelaish suffers a catastrophic loss when three of his daughters are killed in their home by Israeli fire in 2009. An Israeli television journalist's live broadcast of his call for help captures Israeli public and world press attention. "Most of the world has heard of the Gaza Strip," as Abuelaish says, "ut few know what it's like to live here, blockaded, impoverished, year after year, decade after decade." Abuelaish portrays everyday life in Gaza and tells the remarkable story of how he came to be "the first Palestinian doctor to be on staff at an Israeli hospital." The "tortured politics of Palestine, Israel, and the Middle East" are rendered graphic by his personal accounts of "the humiliation, the fear, the physical difficulty" of border checkpoints and bulldozed homes. Abuelaish tells of the "satisfying, even wonderful" moments, "the good chapter of a bad story," as well; an infertility specialist, he is as "thoroughly smitten" with his research as he is appalled that "Gaza hospitals are rundown and can't be repaired because of an embargo is preposterous." Abuelaish knows anger, but in this impassioned, committed attempt to show the reader life on the sliver of land that is Gaza, he demonstrates that "nger is not the same as hate." (Jan.)BookPage Reviews
Doctor's cure for hatred
On January 16, 2009, as the three-week-long Israeli Army assault on the Gaza Strip that was intended to stop Hamas rocket attacks was winding down, an explosion ripped through a bedroom in the apartment of Palestinian doctor Izzeldin Abuelaish.
With his oldest daughter, Dr. Abuelaish rushed to the bedroom and discovered his 17-year-old daughter gravely wounded and his 15-year-old daughter decapitated. Moments later, as he ran to the street for help, another Israeli tank round slammed into the house, killing his oldest daughter, her 14-year-old sister and a cousin. The distraught doctor called an Israeli television reporter he knew, and their anguished conversation was broadcast live to the Israeli public.
This incident, retold in harrowing detail near the end of I Shall Not Hate, is the exclamation point in an eye-opening story of a remarkable person. Born in poverty in a Palestinian refugee camp after his family was forced from ancestral lands now owned by Ariel Sharon, Abuelaish seems to have been hard-working, ambitious and independent-minded almost from birth. At the age of 12, during the Six Day War in 1967, he discovered that "almost no one behaved the way I expected them to. . . . It made me more aware of what people say versus what they do." At 15 years old, in the same year that he saw the Israeli army plow down his family's modest home so their tanks could roll freely through the refugee camp, he worked on an Israeli farm where the family treated him fairly and showed him great kindness. Later, he became the first Palestinian doctor on staff at an Israeli hospital. "All of my adult life I have had one leg in Palestine and the other in Israel, an unusual stance in this region," he writes.
All of this gives Abuelaish a truth-to-power authenticity in his depiction of the systematic humiliations visited upon residents of Gaza, even such a moderate and well-respected figure as the good doctor. Abuelaish can be repetitive and his prose is sometimes infelicitous, but oddly enough, the occasionally awkward writing often adds to the book's power. Even more powerful, however, is Abuelaish's persistent message of peace and his call for coexistence. Despite his unimaginable loss, he writes near the end of I Shall Not Hate, "To those who seek retaliation, I say, even if I got revenge on all the Israeli people, would it bring my daughters back? Hatred is an illness. It prevents healing and peace."

Claude Julien: Maxim Lapierre's taunt 'wouldn't be acceptable on our end'
Posted By Scott McLaughlin On June 6, 2011 @ 1:11 pm In General | No Comments
There may not have been any biting in Game 2, but there was still plenty going on after the whistle. While Claude Julien [1] and the Bruins players downplayed the significance of the league's decision to not suspend Alexandre Burrows, Canucks forward Maxim Lapierre [2] chose to mock the whole incident by sticking his fingers in Patrice Bergeron [3]'s face after a whistle and appearing to offer him a bite.
When asked about the incident on Monday, Julien initially said he wasn't going to say much about it, but then he went on to say quite a bit.
"If it's acceptable for them [to do that], then so be it," Julien said. "It certainly wouldn't be acceptable on our end of it. I think you know me enough to know that. … The NHL [4] rules on something. If they decide to make a mockery of it, that's totally up to them. If that's their way of handling things, so be it."
When asked to respond to Julien's comments, Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault denied having any knowledge of the incident.
"If that happened in between whistles, I didn't see it," Vigneault said. "I focus on the play that's going on between whistles, so I can't really comment on that."
Lapierre also took the easy way out by giving a "no comment" when asked about the incident.
In the Bruins' room, Chris Kelly [5] said everyone has pretty much come to expect that kind of behavior from Lapierre.
"That's nothing new with him," Kelly said. "We know what type of player he is. It is what it is."
Taunting opponents might be unacceptable to Julien, but getting caught up in it or worrying about getting revenge would be just as bad, according to Julien.
"We can't waste our time on that kind of stuff," Julien said. "We really have to focus on what we have to do. The last time I looked, we're down two games to none. All our energy has to go towards that."

Aide to the Springfield Fire Commissioner Dennis Leger says firefighters responded to the Laundromat Express on Sumner Ave. shortly after 7:00 p.m., after an employee smelled smoke in the building.
Leger says they determined that it was an electrical fire, which started between the wall and ceiling.
It caused roughly $20,000 worth of damage and will leave the business temporarily closed. However, everyone was able to get out of the building safely.

Left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav became the first Indian bowler to grab a hat-trick in the under-19 cricket World Cup as the defending champion entered the quarterfinals with a patchy five-wicket win over Scotland in a low-scoring Group A match here on Monday.
Kuldeep's hat-trick was the highlight of a superb bowling effort by the Indians before they survived a collapse of their own to finish at 92 for five in 22.3 overs. The Indians are on top in their group with two wins out of two and just one match to go.
On a pitch, which seemed to be loaded in favour of the bowlers, Scotland won the toss and opted to bat. The decision backfired as the Indian bowlers wrecked havoc.
Opener Andrew Umeed scored half the side's runs with a 77-ball 44. Gavin Main was the only other Scottish batsman to touch the double-figure mark with a 22-ball 16.
Kuldeep and Aamir Gani were the pick of Indian bowlers with four wickets apiece. But Kuldeep shone brighter with his historic feat, which came in the 19th and 21st over.
Nick Farrar (0), Kyle Stirling (0) and Alex Baum (5) were the batsmen to fall to Kuldeep in the spectacular spell.
The tweaker had Farrar caught by Deepak Hooda at square leg, before trapping Stirling LBW off his last delivery in the 19th over. Kuldeep completed the hat-trick in the 21st over when he crashed through the stumps of Baum. His 10 overs, including a maiden, yielded merely 28 runs.
He was brilliantly backed by off-spinner Gani, who ended Umeed's resistance by piercing his bat and pad to rattle his stumps. Later he cleaned up the tail to complete a dominating bowling display by the Indians.
The scores:
Scotland 88 in 29.4 overs (Andrew Umeed 44, Kuldeep Yadav four for 28, including hat-trick, Aamir Gani four for 28) lost to India 92 for five in 22.3 overs (Sarfaraz Khan 45 n.o, Chayank Gosain three for 31).
Afghanistan 253 in 49.2 overs (Mohammad Mujtaba 75, Ihsanullah 63, Hashmatullah Shaidi 57, James Bazley three for 69, Cameron Valent three for 59) bt Australia 217 in 48 overs (Jaron Morgan 47, Jake Doran 45, Damien Mortimer 43, J. Bazley 54 n.o, Sharafuddin Ashraf three for 55, Abdullah Adil four for 45).
Bangladesh 233 (Shadman Islam 65, Litton Das 31, Mosaddek Hossain 70) bt Namibia 181 in 49 overs (Xander Pitchers 40, Gerhard Erasmus 37, Jaen Kotze 35, Mustafizur Raham three for 24, M. Hossain three for 29).
Pakistan 283 for eight (Sami Aslam 62, Imam-ul-Haq 88, Hasan Raza 44, Kabua Morea three for 45) bt Papua New Guinea 138 in 30.5 overs (Kiplin Doriga 51, Zafar Gohar four for 35).

What can Suchin do to resolve the problem?
What can Suchin do to resolve the problem?
The major question becomes should Chin stick with the original deal or try to renegotiate. This can be contentious, with students taking strong positions. One way to keep the class from polarizing is to suggest the two approaches make sense and are not mutually exclusive. Keeping to the agreement builds trust and good will, but it is also possible while doing this to reopen negotiations, especially if you think a revision can benefit both parties, or at least not put the other party at a disadvantage.
Other approaches include more careful inventory monitoring to suggest which items to stock and how much (in effect get more sales per foot of shelf space), make the aisles narrower to put in more shelving, looking for auxiliary space or adding space to the building. All of the ideas in this paragraph incur greater costs and time, while adding space requires zoning approval.
For those who say "sue the city for a better deal", there are several questions. Is suing consistent with Chin's style to date? Would there be negative local reaction, which would worsen sales? Could his other businesses face sales downturns or government reaction? If he sues, what will be the likely reaction of the city? Generally, the aggressive approach needs to be thought through.

Jared Leto Wins Best Supporting Actor For 'Dallas Buyers Club,' Shouts Out Activists In Ukraine

Jared Leto Wins Best Supporting Actor For 'Dallas Buyers Club,' Shouts Out Activists In Ukraine
"There was a teenage girl who was pregnant with her second child. She was a high school dropout and a single mom. But somehow she managed to make a better life for herself and her children," Leto said, thanking his mother at length for her work bringing him up. "She encouraged her kids to be creative, to work hard, and to do something special. That girl is my mother and she's here tonight. But I just want to say, I love you mom, thank you for teaching me to dream."
He then turned to international politics, saying "To all the dreamers out there all around the world watching this tonight, in places like Ukraine and Venezuela, I want to say, we are here, and as you struggle to make your dreams happen, to live the impossible, we're thinking of you tonight." It'll be interesting to see if other actors follow his lead as the U.S. struggles to shape its response to Russia's incursions into Ukraine this weekend.
And Leto touched on LGBT issues last, dedicating his statuette to "the 36 million people who have lost the battle to AIDS," and saying "I stand here in front of the world with you and for you," to anyone who's suffered because of who they are or who they love. It's too bad that Leto didn't use his time on the Oscar stage to speak at greater length about trans issues, and with greater sensitivity than he has on previous occasions. But with any hope, his performance is far from the last to tell the stories of trans people, and his award opens up opportunities for trans actors and actresses. Next year, Laverne Cox.

Her training combines a BFA in Acting from the California Institute of the Arts; a post-graduate certificate in Physical Theatre from the Dell' Arte International School of Physical Theatre; and a masters in Voice Studies from the Central School of Speech and Drama in London.
In 2003 we launched our Teatro Nuevo initiative to bring more Spanish-speaking audiences into the theatre, and that program has landed 24th Street Theatre in the forefront of cross-cultural theatre programming.
Last year we piloted a community-based project through which we created a production using neighborhood residents, most of whom were Spanish-speakers. The community interest in the production was extremely strong and let us know that they want more participatory arts programming in the future.
This project will build upon the lessons learned over the past few years, mainly that we need to commit more resources to community-based programming, including money, staff time, food, and new video technology.
With the Irvine Foundation's support, we can fully develop proven methods (i.e. Cornerstone Theatre) of arts delivery and arts participation in our own community.
We invited community members to star in our Teatro Del Pueblo project! 24th STreet offered a series of free adult acting workshops with the goal of creating a holiday production in December starring residents of North University Park. Participants worked with professional directors and actors to create a work of holiday art for your community at the same time.
Estamos invitando a nuestros vecinos para participar en nuestro proyecto Teatro del Pueblo. En los siguientes meses vamos a ofrecer una serie de clases de actuación para adultos con la meta de producir una obra en Diciembre con nuestros vecinos de North University Park. Van a trabajar con actores y directores profesionales y al mismo tiempo crear una ofrenda creativa para la comunidad.

What punctures the moment is that mix of dread and acceptance that always looms even in the earliest Go-Betweens music--the specter of age. They seemed to anticipate the gravity of passing years all along, even back when they started playing together as callow school chums. Forster sings of Smith, "When she sang 'About a Boy'/Kurt Cobain/I thought, 'What a shame/It wasn't about Tom Verlaine.'" The message is quite simple: Patti, Kurt Cobain wasn't for us. Ours is Tom Verlaine. Sing about angels, look at the sky, lift up your arms ("like she was pushing back cotton on some Midwestern farm"). But when you sing about rock and roll, sing about our rock and roll. The less contemporary context the better.

Boykin leads TCU over SE La after Pachall's injury
FORT WORTH, Texas Trevone Boykin is the starting quarterback for No. 24 TCU again.
This time it's because Casey Pachall is hurt.
Boykin led three straight scoring drives after Pachall left with an injury, and the Horned Frogs pulled away from Southeastern Louisiana 38-17 on Saturday.
Pachall, who missed most of last season after an arrest on suspicion of drunken driving, injured his left forearm at the end of a running play late in the second quarter, didn't return and was ruled out of TCU's Big 12 opener at Texas Tech on Thursday night.
"Probably not good," TCU coach Gary Patterson said, declining to offer any specifics. "He won't play next week. I can promise you that."
Boykin played the final nine games in 2012 after Pachall was arrested and went into a substance-abuse program. Pachall returned in the spring, and the quarterbacks split time in last week's opener against LSU. They were even both on the field for the first play, with Pachall under center.
Pachall had taken just about every snap before he was injured Saturday, and Boykin had the first three catches of his career before Pachall got his arm caught under a couple of defenders as he was tackled along the sideline.
While Pachall walked slowly to the locker room, Boykin ran 16 yards on the next play, and Jaden Oberkrom ended the first half with a 46-yard field goal that put the Horned Frogs (1-1) ahead 17-14.
Boykin completed a 29-yard pass to Brandon Carter on the first play of the second half, and Carter finished that drive with a 5-yard scoring run. Then Boykin threw 27 yards to Josh Doctson for a 31-14 lead.
"I pretty much knew the game plan and I tried to execute it and play within our system," said Boykin, who was 3-6 as a freshman starter a year ago. "It wasn't that difficult to do to come in after Casey had the injury."
Bryan Bennett had 132 yards passing and another 132 rushing for the Lions (1-1), who were even at 14-14 late in the first half despite never scoring more than 10 points in five games against BCS teams since bringing back football in 2003 at the FCS level.
"I love his competitive spirit," Southeastern Louisiana coach Ron Roberts said of the Oregon transfer who also had two interceptions and lost a fumble. "I think that's the big thing that allowed most of our guys to feel comfortable coming in here, to follow him and know that we felt we had our opportunities and our chances to win."
Boykin's first play at quarterback was a handoff to Waymon James for the game's first score, a 1-yard plunge. B.J. Catalon followed his kickoff return for a score against LSU with a 51-yarder to start the game and had a 15-yard scoring run. He led TCU with 59 yards rushing.
Pachall guided a pair of scoring drives and finished 8 of 14 for 100 yards. Boykin was 9 of 13 for 133 yards and two touchdowns and added 35 yards rushing before he was replaced by third-stringer Tyler Matthews late in the game.

In the spring of 1999, hunger and thirst are constant companions to 11-year-old Stephen and his family and friends in their southern Sudan village. Stephen wants to go back to his books, but the village school is closed due to civil war between the northern soldiers and the southern rebels. When bombs explode in their small village, Stephen's mother tells him and his friends to quickly pack, and they run and hide before they're caught by the enemy soldiers. Stephen leaves with a few precious possessions, wondering if each step will bring him closer to water, food, and freedom—and maybe home again someday."Mead puts civil war in human terms through the eyes of one young boy. In the context of an artfully told story, much is told about how war works. . . . The history, the land, and the determination of a band of refugees to care for each other are vividly evoked in this important work."—Kirkus Reviews, Starred"Mead conveys the particulars of the place and the desperate longing of a displaced child for home, education, and peace."—Booklist

ClassicsOnline Home » BORODIN, A.P.: Symphonies Nos. 1-3 (Seattle Symphony, Schwarz)
Borodin's symphonies exude lyricism and panache. The First took five years to complete but is a work of seamless melodic invention owing something to Mendelssohn, whose influence infuses it with delicious lightness. The Second Symphony is a more explicitly Russian work, pulsing with festive and march-like elements, high-spirited and boldly nationalistic. The Third was left incomplete, and was reconstructed and orchestrated by Glazunov with considerable facility and imagination. Gerard Schwarz and the Seattle Symphony have already demonstrated their prowess in music by another of the "Mighty Five", Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherazade (8.572693), acclaimed as "world class…nothing short of spectacular" (MusicWeb International).

Borodin's First Symphony has modernist touches and fluid melodies
By Craig Zeichner
Alexander Porfir'yevich Borodin (1833–1887)
Symphonies Nos. 1–3
Alexander Porfir'yevich Borodin was born in 1833, the illegitimate son of a Georgian prince, assuming, according to custom, the surname and patronymic of one of his father's serfs. His mother later married a retired army doctor and he was brought up at home in cultured and privileged surroundings. Here he was able to develop his early interests in music, in the course of a general education that won him entry in 1850 to the Medico-Surgical Academy in St Petersburg. His public career was as a scientist, from 1864 as a professor of chemistry at the Medico-Surgical Academy, and involved him in teaching and in research. In common with a number of contemporaries, he was only able to indulge his interest in music in his spare time, a fact that delayed his progress and left, at his death in 1887, a number of incompleted projects, to be assembled and finished by his friend Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, who had resigned his commission in the navy to devote himself entirely to music, and by Rimsky-Korsakov's pupil Alexander Glazunov.
The nineteenth century saw the development of nationalism throughout Europe. In Russia there was an intellectual reaction to the westernizing tendencies initiated by Peter the Great a century before, and in all the arts a move towards the creation of something specifically Russian. In music opinions were divided between a group of nationalist composers, the so-called Mighty Five, led by Mily Balakirev, who had enjoyed a measure of professional training, and including, in addition to Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov, the expert on military fortification César Cui and the ex-army officer turned civil servant Modest Mussorgsky. These nationalist composers gloried in their own relative amateurism, opposing strongly the establishment of professional conservatories in St Petersburg and Moscow by the Rubinstein brothers, whom they regarded as representative of "German" music. The succeeding generation was able to provide a synthesis between these two rival movements, joining the professional training of the conservatories to Russian sources of inspiration.
Borodin attempted three symphonies, the last of which he never finished. The first, in E flat, took him five years to complete, occupying his intermittent attention from 1862 until 1867. It was given a poor trial performance under Balakirev in March 1868, but was more successful when it was played in the first Russian Music Society concert of 1869. Borodin had met Balakirev first in 1862 and fallen under his influence, of which the First Symphony was a more or less immediate result. The symphony was his first sustained exercise in composition and was subjected to the often contradictory criticism of his new mentor at every step.
The E flat Symphony opens with a slow introduction that contains the germ of the Allegro first subject. An E flat major second movement scherzo shows a debt to Mendelssohn, a favourite with Borodin, while the B major trio has about it more the exotic world of Borodin's unfinished opera Prince Igor. The D major slow movement is dominated by a melody originally intended for the cor anglais, until the intervention of Rimsky-Korsakov and Glazunov, who recommended the use of the cello in its place. The symphony ends with an energetic finale which, in spite of its characteristic second subject, owes much to German tradition and was described by Gerald Abraham as second-hand Schumann, a judgment as harsh as the same writer's view of the scherzo as second-hand Berlioz, deficiencies for which he regarded the original first movement as ample compensation.
The Second Symphony was started in 1869 and completed seven years later, the period of its composition coinciding very largely with Borodin's intermittent attention to work on Prince Igor. The music is thoroughly Russian in mood and the composer himself suggested in conversation with Stasov, the polymath mentor of the group of the Mighty Five, that the first movement represented some gathering of Russian warriors, the slow movement a Bajan and the last a crowd in festive mood. The opening movement is dominated by its forceful and ominous first theme. The Scherzo, slightly altered in its opening on the suggestion of Balakirev, who was always ready with advice, however inconsistent, shifts a semi-tone higher; the repeated note C on the horns serves as the introduction of the new key of F major, much as the G flat chord that opens the Andante, with its moving horn solo, shifts the tonality to D flat, changing to C sharp minor at the start of the colourful B major finale. The symphony, in fact, is remarkable in its technical novelty, within the traditional symphonic framework, and constitutes an orchestral counterpart of Prince Igor, Polovtsian Dances notwithstanding.
The Third Symphony, of which only two movements exist, uses as a second movement a scherzo in a characteristically uneven rhythm scored originally for string quartet, written in 1882, and orchestrated, as Borodin had intended. The first movement, reconstructed by Glazunov from the composer's sketches and from his own phenomenal memory, had actually originally been intended as a string quartet, a fact that goes some way to explaining its relatively spare texture and gentle mood. For the Trio Glazunov took music that the composer had written for the first act of Prince Igor but had later rejected.

Renewable Energy Market Employs 7.7 Million People Worldwide
May 19, 2015 09:01 AM - Andrew Burger, Triple Pundit
Renewable energy investment and deployment is paying off, and in spades, when it comes to addressing a basic issue plaguing developed and developing countries alike: an inability to generate jobs that pay a good living wage. Around the world, renewable energy job creation continues to far outpace that for economies overall. Some 7.7 million people are now employed across the global renewable energy value chain, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). That's up 18 percent from 6.5 million in 2014, the agency noted in its 2015 Renewable Energy and Jobs Annual Review.
France passes law to promote green roofs
March 26, 2015 09:05 AM - Kevin Mathews, Care2
Environmentalism is fast becoming a top concern in France – a rooftop concern, to be precise. Excitingly, the nation has just passed new legislation that will require all upcoming commercial construction projects to feature either green roofs or solar panels above their top floors.
Which type of energy will be the cheapest source of power?
February 24, 2015 08:57 AM - ClickGreen Staff, ClickGreen
Solar energy plants will soon deliver the most inexpensive power available in many parts of the world within a decade, according to a new analysis of the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). By 2025, the cost of producing solar power in the UK will have declined to between 4.2 and 10.3 pence per kilowatt hour (p/kWh), and by 2050 to as low as 2.0 to 7.4 p/kWh, according to a study by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems commissioned by Agora Energiewende.

ENERGY STAR now certifies Clothes Dryers
February 20, 2015 09:53 AM - Editor, ENN
For the first time, ENERGY STAR is certifying clothes dryers. Starting this past President's Day weekend, 45 models of ENERGY STAR certified dryers, from five different manufacturers, were available in stores nationwide. ENERGY STAR certified dryers include gas, electric and compact models, and incorporate innovative energy saving technologies, such as moisture sensors that detect when clothes are dry and automatically shut the dryer off. Dryers use more energy than any other appliance in the home, and since 80 percent of American homes own dryers, the savings potential is huge. With over 5 million dryers being soil last year, the new certified clothes dryers represent a great new opportunity for energy savings in the U.S.
Renewables Dominate New US Electrical Generating Capacity
December 24, 2014 10:01 AM - Clean Techies Staff, Clean Techies
According to the latest "Energy Infrastructure Update" report from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) Office of Energy Projects, wind energy and solar power combined provided over 70 percent (71.82%) of the 873 megawatts (MW) of new U.S. electrical generating capacity placed into service in November 2014. Specifically, three wind farms came on line last month, accounting for 333-MW of new generation in service. These included Stella Wind Farm's 182-MW Panhandle Wind Farm Phase II expansion in Texas and the 150-MW Origin Wind Energy project in Oklahoma. New wind generating capacity this year thus far has more than doubled that for the same period in 2013 (2,525-MW vs. 1,112-MW).

New Technology Brings Temperatures Down
December 8, 2014 09:02 AM - S.E. Smith, Care2
Greek villages are famous for their glittering white walls and beautiful blue painted accents, which make them a dazzling sight whether you're approaching the sea or looking out across them from the windows of your blessedly cool room — which stays cool even in the height of summer heat. If you look around, you might notice that there's no air conditioning. The Greeks don't need it, because their homes are specifically designed to control temperatures and keep people comfortable. Thick walls insulate rooms to keep temperatures stable, while those handsome white roofs and walls reflect heat.
How businesses can help preserve endangered species
December 5, 2014 08:24 AM - Sarah Clinton, Mizzou University
Raptors, or birds of prey, some of which are endangered species, typically live in environments that provide natural land cover, such as forests and grasslands. Protecting endangered raptor species helps maintain food chain balance and prevents overpopulation of common raptor prey, such as snakes and rodents. As more businesses are built on the edges of urban areas, land where raptors once lived becomes industrialized, which raises concerns about the consequences of habitat destruction on raptor populations. Now, University of Missouri researchers have found that businesses can contribute to raptor preservation efforts by engaging in less development of lawn areas and increased planting or preservation of native grasslands and woodlots.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
December 3, 2014 10:18 AM - Allison Winter, ENN
The tradition of the Capitol Christmas Tree, or The People's Tree, began in 1964 when Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives John W. McCormack (D-MA) placed a live Christmas tree on the Capitol lawn. This tree lived three years before succumbing to wind and root damage. In 1970, the Capitol Architect asked the U.S. Forest Service to provide a Christmas tree. Since then, a different national forest has been chosen each year to provide The People's Tree. This national forest also works with state forests to provide companion trees that are smaller Christmas trees for offices in Washington, D.C.
This year, the 88-foot-tall white spruce tree was harvested from the Chippewa National Forest in northeastern Minnesota by Jim Scheff who won the Logger of the Year award from the Sustainable Forestry Initiative Inc. (SFI).
That begs the question how can a logger win an award from a sustainability group?

Tessa Jowell statement
The Mayor of London has the power to make a profound and lasting difference to the lives of millions of Londoners, and I've made no secret that I've been preparing my plan. But my fervent belief is that London's best hope for a better future is a Labour Government, so all of my campaigning energy is directed towards helping our Labour candidates in marginal seats win in 2015.
Applications to be Labour's candidate for Mayor of London don't open until after the election, so that is the appropriate time for a formal declaration. I'm standing down as MP for Dulwich and West Norwood so that I can fully prepare for meeting that challenge, and I intend to bring a plan for London that will be bold, ambitious, and will meet the aspirations of all Londoners

WICHITA, Kan. — Years of drought are reshaping the U.S. beef industry with feedlots and a major meatpacking plant closing because there are too few cattle left in the United States to support them.
Some feedlots in the nation's major cattle-producing states have already been dismantled, and others are sitting empty. Operators say they don't expect a recovery anytime soon, with high feed prices, much of the country still in drought and a long time needed to rebuild herds.
The closures are the latest ripple in the shockwave the drought sent through rural communities. Most cattle in the U.S. are sent to feedlots for final fattening before slaughter. The dwindling number of animals also is hurting meatpackers, with their much larger workforces. For consumers, the impact will be felt in grocery and restaurant bills as a smaller meat supply means higher prices.
Texas, the largest beef-producing state, has been particularly hard hit with a historic drought in 2011 from which it still hasn't fully recovered.
"Most of the bad news is in Texas," said Dick Bretz, an Amarillo broker who specializes in selling feed yards and other agribusinesses. "That is where I see most of the empty yards, that is where I see most of the interest in selling yards and where I see the least interest in buying yards."
He recently dismantled a 7,000-head feed yard in Hereford, Texas, for a new owner who had bought it for the land, not the business. The previous owner had lost the property to foreclosure, and the facility was in very poor condition and would have cost too much to repair, he said.
When corn prices first spiked to $8 a bushel nearly four years ago, about 70 big feed yards went up for sale in the High Plains feeding area that includes Texas, Kansas, Colorado and Nebraska, Bretz said. Today, there are 10 and 15 feed yards for sale in the region, mostly in Texas. Bretz said he knows of 15 more that are empty, three recently dismantled and two others now being torn down.
Feed yards typically employ one worker per 1,000 head of cattle, so even big ones may not have more than a few dozen workers. But they supply meatpacking plants, which have much bigger workforces, and feedlot closures could herald greater unemployment to come.

The venerable shack also offers a $35-a-head clambake with corn, potatoes, a half pound each of steamers and mussels, a whole lobster, and a bucket of chowder big enough to float back to Hyannis in.
