The Harlan County Outdoor Recreation Authority discussed a variety of issues during a meeting on Wednesday.
Board member Mike King suggested holding a Spartan or "Tough Mudder" type foot race on Labor Day Weekend.
According to Wikipedia, a Spartan Race is a series of obstacle races of varying distance and difficulty ranging from one mile to marathon distances.
The panel nominated King to look into the details of holding that type of event.
The board also discussed some issues with the zip line.
Board member Ken Crider mentioned insurance has been secured for the zip line through Mutual of Omaha.
Board chairman Dallas Gilbert stated future advertisements should specify that the Black Mountain Thunder Zip Line is not a "canopy" tour.
"We don't have a canopy tour, we're above the canopy," said Gilbert. "We want them to know that they're going to be going through there at a high rate of speed in the air."
After some discussion, the board moved on without taking any action.
In other activity, the board discussed changes to camera equipment designed to offer zip line patrons photos of their visit. Also, the status of the Black Mountain Outdoor Adventure Area website was discussed.

2013 BVarsity All-Area Football Team
Player of the Year
Asauni Rufus * Bakersfield
QB * 6-0, 190 * senior
His transcendent season included more than 1,500 yards passing and rushing and seemed to get better as the year went on. It culminated with a winning touchdown against in the Southern Cal regional final against San Marcos-Mission Hills and 184 yards rushing in a state-championship victory against Loomis-Del Oro.
Offensive Player of the Year
Sheldon Croney * Garces
RB * 6-1, 215 * junior
Bruising running back picked up early scholarship offers from Colorado State and Boise State and a whole bunch of yards after contact. He finished with 2,377 yards and 28 touchdowns rushing and set school records for single-season, career touchdowns and single-season yardage and single-game yardage with 380 against Golden Valley.
Defensive Player of the Year
Grant Bouma * Bakersfield Christian
LB * 6-3, 220 * senior
He finished the year with 247 tackles, tied for second in the nation in MaxPreps' database. That included six games with at least 20 tackles and 18 takedowns in a D-IV state-championship loss to Modesto-Central Catholic. Bouma also had three interceptions.
First-team offense
Joseph Blewett, Tehachapi
OL/DL * 6-1, 215 * senior
Three-year starter on a Tehachapi offensive line that doesn't accept anything but excellence and this year paved the way for 3,414 rushing yards and another winning season.
Jarred Dorton * North
OL/DL * 6-7, 285 * senior
Once-mammoth right tackle shed some 30 pounds in the offseason and became a lean, mean blocking machine. His highlights are full of pancakes, and his mailbox is full of Mountain West-type recruiting letters.
Keith Evans * South
All-purpose * 6-1, 195 * senior
First-team all-SYL receiver excelled at the position, catching 26 passes for 539 yards (20.7 average) and 10 touchdowns, but he a lot of other things well, too, rushing for 344 yards (7.0 average), returning a punt for a touchdown and even throwing for a touchdown.
David Grimm * Garces
OL/DL * 6-3, 225 * senior
Agile lineman helped pave the way for Sheldon Croney and Garces' formidable running game. Grimm also snagged a key interception on defense and returned it for a touchdown in a win against Stockdale.
Ruben Guerra * Liberty
OL * 6-4, 278 * junior
The Patriots' best offensive lineman was first-team all-SWYL and helped block for one of the section's most balanced attacks. Liberty rushed for 2,260 yards and threw for 1,783 behind Guerra and Co.
Jack Harding * Centennial
OL/DL * 5-8, 245 * senior
In Kevin Sneed's first year at Centennial, he established a run-heavy veer offense that relied on linemen like Harding, who learned the system and cleared a path for more than 2,400 yards rushing at more than 7 yards per carry. First team all-SWYL.
Josh Jackson * Bakersfield Christian
WR/DB * 5-11, 155 * senior
Easily the area's leading receiver in every major category, Jackson finished with 66 catches for 1,458 yards and 17 touchdowns. He eclipsed 100 yards seven times, including the state-championship game.
Brandon Jones * Bakersfield Christian
QB * 6-2, 185 * junior
Jones transferred from Bakersfield High and only had the most prolific passing season in Central Section history. His 4,360 yards and 54 touchdowns passing were both section records, according to section historian Bob Barnett, and he did that while throwing only 10 interceptions in 429 attempts.
Dillon Littles * Bakersfield
OL * 6-3, 210 * senior
A former wide receiver, Littles made the odd jump to tackle and simply excelled, helping to move the Drillers' ball-carriers to the second level of the defense before they were touched in Bakersfield's lethal option offense.
Anthony Mariscal * Liberty
RB/DB * 6-0, 185 * junior
One of the area's top junior recruits, Mariscal ran for 1,089 yards (7.4 average) and 11 touchdowns against a difficult schedule. When a shoulder injury sequestered him to defense only in the Patriots' D-I quarterfinal against Clovis, the Liberty's offense struggled while he returned an interception for a touchdown on defense.
Richard Nourse * Shafter
WR/DB * 5-11, 165 * senior
One of three area receivers to eclipse 1,000 yards, Nourse also caught 10 touchdown passes and averaged 23.8 yards per catch. His biggest games came in back-to-back weeks: 263 yards and 5 touchdowns against Arvin, and 151 yards and two more scores against Chavez.
Josh Nunez * Bakersfield
OL * 5-10, 215 * senior
Another key cog in a small-but-agile Drillers' line that helped its offense gain more than 6,000 yards in 15 games. That included 4,489 rushing yards and 68 touchdowns on an average of 8.1 yards per carry.
Brandon Robinson * Centennial
RB/DB * 5-11, 180 * sophomore
A transfer from Independence, Robinson quickly felt at home in the Golden Hawks' backfield, rushing for 1,216 yards and 13 touchdowns (despite missing a game with injury) at a whopping 10.2 yards per carry.
Zac Sullivan * Liberty
K * 5-9, 178 * senior
He made 8 of 12 field goals, including a 49-yarder against Buchanan and two crucial kicks in a one-point win against Stockdale. An even bigger impact might have come on kickoffs, where Sullivan had 41 touchbacks on 60 tries.
Anthony Wood * Stockdale
RB/LB * 5-11, 190 * senior
The most explosive player on Stockdale's double-wing offense, Wood ran for 1,341 yards and 19 touchdowns, including four-touchdown games in back-to-back weeks against Buchanan and Independence. He was first-team all-SWYL.
First-team defense
George Borba * Garces
OL/LB * 5-11, 185 * senior
Man in the middle sparked the Rams' defensive turnaround, which helped the team reach the Division II section final for the third straight season. Borba was the leading tackler on a defense that allowed no more than 14 points in seven straight games late in the season.
Marcus Bruce * Bakersfield
RB/LB * 5-9, 190 * junior
The Drillers' defense includes six linebackers/linemen who dance around the line of scrimmage, and the best of them was Bruce, the SWYL's defensive co-MVP. He also rushed for 541 yards and 8 touchdowns as one of the Drillers' regular running backs.
David Carter * Tehachapi
RB/LB * 5-10, 205 * senior
Physical linebacker led a tough Warriors defense with 135 tackles. He also made two sacks and an interception and was first-team all-SEYL.
Mykeil Clayton * Ridgeview
RB/LB * 5-9, 225 * junior
The SYL's defensive MVP led a second-half Wolf Pack resurgence that ended with a third straight trip to the Division III section finals after upset victories against Washington Union and Porterville in the playoffs.
Ethan Cullifer * Stockdale
TE/LB * 5-10, 185 * junior
A sideline-to-sideline player who emerged to earn first-team SWYL honors. Cullifer had several games with double-digit tackles and finished the year with three sacks.
Dayton Diorio * Frontier
P * 6-3, 211 * senior
Diorio had a great leg -- his average of 37.5 yards per punt was second-best in the county -- but his real strength came in touch. Nine of his 25 punts landed inside the opponent's 20-yard line, helping the Titans flip field position regularly.
Demetrius Eaton * South
DL * 6-0, 275 * senior
The Rebels' big boy in the middle was credited with 13 tackles and 14 quarterback hurries, but what he did best was clog the middle of the opposing line. It helped South to a 7-0 start and the program's first league title since 1995.
Colton Foster * Frontier
OL/DL * 6-4, 285 * senior
Despite missing most of three games with recurring injuries, Foster, a Colorado State commit, made 48 tackles and 4.5 sacks and generally disrupted opposing offenses at the point of attack.
Dominic Frasch * Garces
WR/DB * 5-11, 180 * senior
One of Kern County's fastest players, Frasch had 887 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, and he returned a kickoff for another TD. His biggest impact, however, was as the SEYL's Defensive MVP. He often blanketed the opposing team's best receiver.
Kevin Hayes * Bakersfield
WR/DB * 6-4, 175 * senior
An Oregon State verbal commit, Hayes made multiple interceptions and excelled despite routinely drawing some of the section's and state's best receivers. He made an 89-yard pick-six in the state championship and also caught 24 passes for 416 yards on offense.
Joseph Hurtado * Liberty
OL/DL * 6-2, 231 * senior
The SWYL's defensive co-MVP was a game-changer on the line, recording 64 tackles, 8 sacks and 17 quarterback hurries against some of the best offenses in the Central Section. Helped Liberty to a 9-1 regular season and the No. 2 seed in the section Division I playoffs.
Jeremiah Reddick * Bakersfield
RB/LB * 6-0, 200 * senior
Another of the Drillers' two-way standouts, Reddick ran for 623 yards and 9 touchdowns and was an every-down defender on Bakersfield's aggressive defense.
Matt Smith * Bakersfield Christian
RB/DL * 6-1, 210 * junior
Was an easy first-team selection on offense or defense. Smith ran for 1,694 yards and 21 touchdowns but increased his presence on the defensive side of the ball even more, recording 86 tackles and 9 sacks as a menacing defensive end.
Derrick Vickers * Bakersfield
RB/WR/DB * 6-0, 190 * senior
Either Vickers or Hayes was the Drillers' fastest player, and Vickers used that speed to the tune of 674 yards rushing, 466 yards receiving and a tremendous season at safety that included the regional-clinching interception against Mission Hills.

From the Publisher"Students of American history will find plenty to chew on in this meaty, heavily illustrated entry in the new Pages from History series....Beginning with a full-color section, the pictures are...heavy on maps that chart the world's expansion in the European consciousness and including often fanciful scenes that in many cases are all that is left of vanished Native American cultures.... [Lepore] draws from a host of hard-to-find sources, and creates a ghastly, compelling picture of one of human history's pivotal moments."—Kirkus Reviews
"A wealth of primary source materials...an eye-opening look at the 'discovery' of the New World....Nearly every page features a black-and-white period reproduction, most with captions giving additional information...full-color reproductions of historical maps. In addition to offering valuable perspectives, this book will introduce readers to the challenges involved in understanding the past."—School Library Journal
"Presents primary source material—diaries, letters, maps, illustrations—and combines it with solid, in-depth examinations. Lepore provides essential background information and helps readers understand the context surrounding each document."—Horn Book
"The author does an excellent job of introducing these documents, filling in their historical context, and pointing out their salient features....This volume provides a balance to traditional texts by presenting the voices of people not often heard, who suffered from European colonization of the new world. Classroom discussions and individual reports will be enriched....Recommended."—Book Report
"Promises to be both useful and capable of holding student interest....Contains many clear, large, and easy-to-use charts, diagrams, and pictures. The sixteen-page map section is a delight that students will find fascinating....Well-edited and beautifully illustrated."—OAH Magazine of History

Cost: Free
Please join the Center for Early Modern History for a lecture by Ulrike Strasser of University of California-Irvine entitled, "Mapping the 'Palaos Islands': Geographical Imagination and Knowledge Transfer Between German Jesuits and Oceanic Islanders Around 1700.'"
This talk probes the history of the first European map of the Caroline Islands for what it reveals about knowledge transfer and competing conceptions of space in the early modern period. Jesuit cartography, it shows, contributed to the symbolic 'colonization of space' (W. Mignolo) that accompanied European political conquest overseas. Yet the talk also highlights the extent to which Jesuit map-making was driven by a distinct missionary 'cosmo-vision' (Luke Clossey) that could facilitate the incorporation of indigenous perspectives into European cartographic representations. Exploring different versions of the map, it illustrates how the very first map of the Caroline Islands contained traces of the islanders' spatial views that were erased only in later European editions.
You may bring your own lunch or join in the light repast provided by the Center. If you have any additional questions, contact firstname.lastname@example.com or visit the Center for Early Modern History in Heller Hall, room 1030.

The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a nonpartisan Washington DC think tank, recently released a report on how the American private sector engages internationally.

The American Society of Civil Engineers' recent "2013 Report Card for America's Infrastructure" report showed how private investment by railroads helped it become a "most improved" infrastructure component. "It is truly gratifying that the world's premier organization of engineering experts recognizes the value and benefits that have resulted from freight railroads making private investments in our country's rail network infrastructure," said Association of American Railroads President and CEO Edward Hamberger.

"Back in the day" when I had to go to work for the papers, strobes weren't allowed at the high school/college/pro games...times have changed! We shot 'em with high speed print or pushed Ektachrome with a f1.4 or faster lens at 1/500.
If your camera syncs faster than 1/125, I'm also surprized. Man, am I behind the times :o Perhaps the blurring is due to the 1/250 speed...I always used 1/500 to stop action at games. But that's neither here nor there, as I would think your flash duration on the strobes would freeze 'em mid-air. I have a hunch that even your gorilla strength strobes don't put out enough punch when bounced off a high ceiling. I had great results in available light with either of the fast films mentioned above...give it a shot.
Maybe I'm old, behind the new technology and stuck in my ways, but I wouldn't use 'em, 'cause you're going to get to a game or tournament where they're not going to let you use them.

Thursday, July 24, 2014
Update: 5:55PM FIJI and the United Kingdom have had talks about Fiji's return to the Commonwealth.
Fiji was suspended from the Commonwealth in September 2009
because it had demanded that Fiji commit, by September 1, 2009 to resuming
negotiations with the opposition and to holding credible elections by October
Prime Minister Rear Admiral (Retired) Voreqe Bainimarama had
then stated to the Commonwealth that elections in 2010 would be premature and
had pointed to 2014 as the suitable time.
Last week President Ratu Epeli Nailatikau met with the
United Kingdom Minister of State at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Hugo

Latest Payerne Stories
The Solar Impulse HB-SIA aircraft of Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg has been scheduled to depart Toulouse-Francazal airport for its final flight home to Payerne, Switzerland for tomorrow, 24 July 2012 at 7 a.m. (local time).
The Solar Impulse aircraft of Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg landed safely in Toulouse, France yesterday (July 17) evening at 9:46 p.m. (local time). Yet, with only one more flight to go to complete their historic 2012 journey, the duo have postponed that flight, which was scheduled to lift off today for Payerne, until further notice.
The final leg of Bertrand Piccard's and Andre Borschberg's 2012 Solar Impulse Project has been given the go despite the challenging weather forecast over the next several days, which could force the team to make a pit stop in Toulouse before returning home to Payerne, Switzerland.
Solar Impulse took off from Rabat-Sale International Airport (Morocco) at 6:17 (local time) July 6. The plane, piloted by Bertrand Piccard, should land in Madrid-Barajas airport in Spain around 12:30 a.m. (local time) on July 7.
The Solar Impulse team of Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg have rescheduled the second-to-last-stage flight of their journey home, a journey that has so far taken them more than 2,400 miles and across two continents flying only on the energy of the Sun.
The flight of the Solar Impulse HB-SIA aircraft of Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg from Rabat-Sale International Airport in Morocco to Madrid, scheduled for July 3, 2012, has been postponed until further notice due to unexpected strong high and middle altitude winds.
Switzerland's Solar Impulse aircraft made its first cross-country flight on Wednesday, a new achievement by the solar plane following a historic 24-hour flight back in July.
The Solar Impulse team, which successfully conducted a round-the-clock flight powered only by the sun, said Tuesday it will next plan three test flights across Switzerland as it prepares the plane for longer journeys.

Product description
'An excellent book. The authors have the rare capacity to handle popular culture and case studies in a theoretically informed manner. Original and well researched' - Mike Featherstone, Nottingham Trent University Understandings of globalization have been little explored in relation to gender or related concerns such as identity, subjectivity and the body. This book contrasts 'the natural' and 'the global' as interpretive strategies, using approaches from feminist cultural theory. The book begins by introducing the central themes: ideas of the natural; questions of scale and context posed by globalization and their relation to forms of cultural production; the transformation of genealogy; and the emergence of interest in definitions of life and life forms. The authors explores these questions through a number of case studies including Benneton advertising, Jurassic Park, The Body Shop, British Airways, Monsanto and Dolly the Sheep. In order to respecify the 'nature, culture and gender' concerns of two decades of feminist theory, this highly original book reflects, hypothesizes and develops new interpretive possibilities within established feminist analytical frames.

Author information
For a long time I have had two main areas of research interest: sociology of culture and feminist theory. My contributions to a sociology of culture draw upon the findings of a series of funded empirical research projects, exploring contemporary developments in the culture industry with a special focus on changing cultural forms. Following the publication of the jointly authored book on The Global Culture Industry: The Mediation of Things (with Lash, Polity, 2007), I am developing my research interest in the question of cultural change through my participation in a 20-partner EU-funded interdisciplinary network on 'A Topological Approach to Cultural Dynamics'. This network - which draws on recent developments in philosophy and mathematical thinking to address questions of cultural and social change, space and intensity - is part of what has been called a topological turn in cultural theory. My ideas on what this might mean are developed in recent and forthcoming publications including the Introduction to a Special Issue of the European Journal of Social Theory on 'What is the empirical?', co-edited with Lisa Adkins and an article on 'Brands as assemblage: assembling culture' to appear in the journal Cultural Economy (forthcoming). It will also inform the book (co-edited with Nina Wakeford) on Inventive Methods, (Routledge). I continue to be interested in brands and branding (Brands: the logos of the global cultural economy, 2004 as I have found them illuminating objects to think with as well as problematic objects to live with/out. I am enthusiastic about the new MA in Brands, Communication and Culture that is just starting at Goldsmiths (organised by Dr Liz Moor in Media and Communications, but with the involvement of myself and others in Sociology). My contributions to feminist theory primarily concern the issue of gender as a kind of becoming (Prosthetic Culture, Feminism and Autobiography) and the changing significance of gender as a social and natural category (Global Nature, Global Culture). I have participate in the annual conferences and workshops linked to the MA Gender, Culture and Media.

The lawyers could actually be the least of your concerns... As capta alluded to earlier, boarding a boat at night - particularly one flying the Stars & Stripes - might conceivably involve the possibility of being met with someone brandishing a firearm...
I was anchored one night off Georgetown, Exumas, ten years ago... (March 19, 2003, to be precise, the night President Bush announced the start of the Iraq War) His speech to the nation that night was being broadcast on the local Cruiser's Net, most everyone was tuned in, precisely as a very intense squall preceding a frontal passage rolled thru Elizabeth Harbor...
I was tucked up close to the docks of Exuma Docking Services, peering out from under my dodger, when I saw a catamaran break free from it's mooring over in Kidd Cove. It took off like a shot through the cluster of boats anchored downwind, amazing it didn't collect anyone... Lots of shouting, but nobody really doing anything, so I jumped into my dinghy, and was barely able to chase it down with my little 2 HP Honda...
The guy had a woefully undersized Fortress on the bow, miraculously it bit, only about 200 meters short of fetching up on the ironshore to the SE...
Next morning on the Cruiser's Net, I made an announcement that I had noticed that the guy's mooring pennant had chafed thru at the deck, and that the failure had not been of the mooring gear itself... The boat had been left there by an absentee owner who had gone back to the States for awhile, and I didn't want anyone to get the impression that the mooring rented by Exuma Houseboats was less than secure...
During the day, a number of other cruisers stopped in passing by my boat, to offer their compliments/thanks for what I had done... The comments of not one, but TWO different cruisers, however, gave me pause...
Both treated me as if I was a bit of a naive' newbie to Bahamian cruising, and pointed out the extreme risk I had taken, in their opinion, given the percentage of cruisers toting guns in the Bahamas... Now, it seemed pretty obvious to me that the boat I had boarded the night before was unattended, but still - their comments definitely gave me pause...
In all my years of sailing the Bahamas, I must admit that thought had never really occurred to me... But, sadly, they were right, and it certainly is a consideration that one must factor in, and be absolutely certain that the boat was unoccupied before jumping aboard in a similar situation...

THERE'S A SENSE OF DEJA vu about "Prints From the Leo Steinberg Collection, Part I," the exhibition on view at the University of Texas at Austin's Jack S. Blanton Museum of Art through July 27. It's not that the work is familiar; much of it is strikingly unexpected. But a pattern does seem to have emerged: A small university gallery acquires a coveted collection, amassed by an eminent scholar, out from under the noses of America's top museums. Five years ago the Blanton scored a stunning coup with the acquisition of the Suida-Manning Collection, a cache of Mannerist and Baroque paintings and drawings assembled by art historians William Suida, his daughter, Bertina, and his son-in-law, Robert Manning, all noted authorities in the field who got into the market ahead of a trend. Last summer the art world was similarly startled to learn that Leo Steinberg, who is regarded as one of the most brilliant art historians working today, had given the Blanton his stellar print collection. Like Suida and the Mannings, Steinberg stole a march on the market, picking expertly from a selection that today is much smaller—and far pricier.
"It was certainly one of the last comprehensive yet distinctive collections of prints in private hands in this country," says Blanton curator Jonathan Bober, who was instrumental in engineering both the Suida-Manning and the Steinberg acquisitions. "In terms of the rarity and quality of the impressions, there is nothing like it." While the $3.5 million estimated worth of the Leo Steinberg Collection doesn't match the Suida-Manning Collection's $35 million, its value to a teaching institution like the Blanton can hardly be overstated. Extending from the fifteenth-century origins of Western printmaking to Jasper Johns's celebrated 1964 color lithograph, Ale Cans (Steinberg wrote a seminal essay on Johns's art in 1962), Steinberg's 3,200-piece collection reflects an intellect legendary for its breadth, erudition, and edginess.
Born in Moscow in 1920, Steinberg grew up in Berlin and studied in London before settling in New York at the end of World War II. In his half-century as a writer, a scholar, and an educator, he has ranged across half a millennium of Western art, elucidating Modern masters such as Picasso and Johns and old masters like Michelangelo and Leonardo, often tossing bombshells along the way. Steinberg's 1983 tome, The Sexuality of Christ in Renaissance Art and in Modern Oblivion, was a controversial (to say the least) masterpiece of intellectual temerity, taking to task established scholarship for politely ignoring Renaissance artists' obvious fixation on Jesus' genitals—which Steinberg interpreted as an important doctrinal expression of the humanity of Christ.
Steinberg's collection took shape in the aftermath of a heart attack he suffered in 1961, shortly after he had finished his Ph.D. dissertation on Italian Baroque architect Francesco Borromini. Advised by his doctor to take it easy, he spent the summer browsing for engravings and etchings in New York bookstores and art gallery bargain bins, quickly finding that this neglected genre appealed to his independent streak. "Prints were considered beneath the consideration of serious galleries," he recalls. "I would take a batch of prints on approval to the print room of the Metropolitan Museum and acquaint myself with the range of the artists' work and the relevant literature. Artists I had never heard of became heroes to me." Starting out on a teaching assistant's budget, Steinberg occasionally sampled big names like Rembrandt and Piranesi but preferred soon-to-be-discovered masters like sixteenth-century Dutch engraver Hendrik Goltzius (whose posterior view of The Farnese Hercules, the colossal nude statue that was a tourist favorite in Renaissance Rome, is one of the collection's signature images), as well as artists who even today remain underrated, like Jean Lepautre, a seventeenth-century French engraver who set biblical scenes amid precisely detailed, extravagantly invented classical architecture.
"I couldn't afford to buy anything that was over one hundred dollars," says Steinberg, who sometimes bought at bulk prices averaging out to pennies per print. After casually inquiring at a Lexington Avenue frame shop in 1962, he was shown an album of prints pasted onto pages by a seventeenth- or eighteenth-century collector, then given a paper knife and invited to cut out entire pages at a dollar apiece. His favorite story, though, involves a shop in an alley off of London's Charing Cross Road that specialized in portrait engravings of Englishmen. Asked if he had anything other than the English portraits, the elderly dealer replied, "Oh, my God, I have a whole basement full of them." Needing to run out for lunch, the dealer apologetically locked his customer in a basement Steinberg describes as "dingy and dusty, with a large central table piled high with prints, stacks of prints five feet tall lining the walls, and a sole fifteen-watt bulb overhead. The light was so bad that anything that looked halfway interesting I put aside." When the dealer returned two hours later, Steinberg had about a hundred prints he'd hoped to winnow in better light before discussing prices. But after a quick riffle through the stack, the dealer simply put his hand on the entire batch and said, "Shall we say twenty pounds?" Among the prints in the bargain-basement haul was a remarkable early work, now appraised in the high four figures, by celebrated English visionary poet and engraver William Blake. Johann Kaspar Lavater (1787), Blake's portrait of a Swiss theologian and physiognomist, combines the conventions of the then-fashionable neoclassical profile with a sense, in the sitter's strangely blazing gaze and sharply drawn features, of the artist's own intensity.
The Blanton's 104-piece premiere showing is no mere sneak peek at the collection's greatest hits but a thoughtful presentation that chronicles a media explosion similar in many ways to the introduction of radio and television in the twentieth century (Part II, covering much of the same ground with a whole new cast of works, opens August 22). A relative latecomer in Western art, printmaking paralleled Europe's ascent to modernity, leaving us vivid images of both the higher aspirations and the basic instincts of a

It's hardly a secret, or much of a shock, that the United States spies on some of its closest allies. But recent revelations about the National Security Agency hoovering up the telephone calls of French citizens have even surprised officials in that country, one of the world's great bastions of espionage.
According to a report in Le Monde, the NSA has monitored more than 70 million French phone calls in a 30-day period. French officials had initially expressed little shock at a previous report that the United States was spying on its officials — that is, after all, what intelligence agencies do. But they were taken aback by the scale and scope of the latest revelations about monitoring its citizens, a French official told The Cable.
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius condemned what he called the NSA's "unacceptable practices." The government summoned the U.S. ambassador to explain what the spy agency is up to. (It was not clear from the report why NSA was monitoring so many phone calls, and whether the agency was listening to them.)
Now, France's top diplomat plans to ask U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry tomorrow morning to explain America's actions. But NSA practices have already been complicating relations with France. In late September, President Francois Hollande asked the United States to supply an explanation on earlier revelations of spying on France. "We haven't heard back," the French official told The Cable.
The French may be peeved, but public reaction there has still been relatively muted. There have been no public protests in France like what were seen in Germany, where thousands have taken to the streets in recent months toting banners with anti-surveillance slogans, such as "Freedom Instead of Fear."
The French official reaction may have been strong, but it remains to be seen what the public will say. "The French have had a tendency over the years to accept restrictions on civil liberties in the name of national security," Natalie Nougayrede, the editor-in-chief of Le Monde, told The Cable. "But being massively spied on by the USA is something that both hurts national pride and irritates even people who would never describe themselves as anti-American."
The German protests have largely been against the NSA's Prism program, which collects emails and other Internet data from technology companies. U.S. officials have repeatedly stressed that any spying the NSA does without a warrant is only targeted at foreigners. But that hasn't sat well with said foreigners, or with some U.S. technology companies that do most of their business abroad. Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook, the majority of whose members live outside the United States, said recently that the Obama administration "blew it" when it tried to assure Americans that their information was protected, while implying that it was open season on everyone else.
Response to revelations of NSA spying in another country, Mexico, has also been fairly muted. But that could be changing.
A story in Der Spiegel described how the NSA had targeted the communications of Mexican government officials, including the e-mail account of former president, Felipe Calderon.
The Mexican foreign ministry issued a statement calling the NSA surveillance "unacceptable, illegal and against Mexican and international law," and added, "In a relationship between neighbors and partners there is no place for the actions that allegedly took place."
Maybe not those actions–hacking the email accounts of the country's top leaders. But there have been plenty of actions that the United States and Mexico took together in the name of fighting drug cartels.
For the past seven years, the State Department has funded a giant telephone eavesdropping system in Mexico, which the government there uses to intercept and record calls. Employees of the NSA, the CIA, the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency, and other intelligence agencies are believed to work in Mexico, in concert with national security officials, to spy on drug and organized crime rings. And U.S. Marines have deployed to Guatemala to hunt down members of the Zetas, Mexico's most notorious and violent cartel, and to block their shipping routes to Mexico.
You would be hard pressed to find a U.S. intelligence official who, when talking about Mexico in the past several years, didn't praise the country for its efforts to track down and arrest or kill members of violent drug cartels. The United States has supplied Mexico with much of the surveillance technology and the analytical horsepower to do that. It spent $2 billion over a six-year period on drone aircraft, trainers, and developing human intelligence sources.
U.S. officials have feared that the drug cartels, which in some cities have defied law and order and assassinated local police, could destabilize the Mexican national government. The threat of a failed state along the U.S. southern border was such a concern for former CIA Director Michael Hayden that, in 2009, he put the drug violence on a "top ten" list of major national security threats that then president-elect Barack Obama should know about on his first day in office.
But even before the revelations of NSA spying, there were signs that the Mexican government wanted to step back from this close relationship and to limit U.S. involvement in Mexican law enforcement and security affairs. U.S. officials had been working with their counterparts at the top of Mexican law enforcement and security on a day-to-day basis. It gave the impression that Mexico couldn't handled its own security — which arguably it couldn't.
The new government is worried about being seen as too close to the United States, and depending too much on U.S. assistance to take care of its own problems. The levels of violence in Mexico have also gone down, so officials there may be feeling ready to pick up the lion's share of the task.
The latest revelations of spying on Mexican officials, including the current president, Enrique Pena Nieto, when he was a candidate, may give the government and the public another reason to take a break from the United States.
The Obama administration stressed the mutual benefits of U.S. intelligence gathering.
"When it comes to specific intelligence matters, we also, I would underscore here, share intelligence with a number of our partners and allies," State Department spokesperson Marie Harf told reporters. "Intelligence is collected, broadly speaking, to protect our citizens, to protect their citizens as well. So people understand the value of intelligence gathering around the world, right?"
Harf seemed to be saying that whatever the NSA was collecting in France and Mexico was ultimately for the benefit of those countries security, as well. "We share intelligence on priorities with our key allies and partners," she said. But Harf wouldn't say specifically, in response to the latest press reports, that information the NSA gathered on French and Mexican citizens was shared with their governments.
Harf's comments largely echoed those of Caitlin Hayden, a National Security Council spokesperson, who said, "The U.S gathers foreign intelligence of the type gathered by all nations" (i.e. this shouldn't surprise anyone).
However, in a readout between President Obama and French President Hollande from Monday, the White House acknowledged the gravity of the accusations, telling reporters that they "raise legitimate questions for our friends and allies about how these capabilities are employed." Obama spoke with Hollande and "made clear that the United States has begun to review the way that we gather intelligence, so that we properly balance the legitimate security concerns of our citizens and allies with the privacy concerns that all people share," according to the readout.
There's a wink and a nod implicit in these latest revelations. "We spy on you. You spy on us." It's how the game is played. But watch closely the official response from the Mexicans and the French, which is both calibrated to account for public sentiment, which may not be so comfortable with the spy vs. spy relationships, and that is changing with every new revelation about the American Big Brother.

Kathleen Horan, Reporter, WNYC News
Kathleen Horan is a staff reporter for New York Public Radio, covering the neighborhood beat. She also reports 'Reset', an ongoing series documenting police-community relations in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
City police officers will soon be carrying tablet computers that can access a range of high-tech data in the field. Police Commissioner Bill Bratton announced the pilot program on Tuesday at a speech in midtown, saying the hand-held computers will connect to information collected by the department's massive Domain Awareness System.
Jessica Tisch, the NYPD's Deputy Commissioner of Information and Technology, is programming the gadgets to send officers text messages about the issue or call they're responding to. "The arrests, the complaints, the warrants," said Tisch, ticking off the kind of alerts cops will receive. The program is expected to be rolled out in the spring. No word yet on how many will be distributed at first — or what they'll cost. The New York Civil Liberties Union is concerned about the burgeoning access to a smorgasbord of sensitive data that's merely a click away. "The broader the access to information police have about law-abiding New Yorkers," said Chris Dunn, the NYCLU's Associate Legal Director, "the greater the need for privacy protections."
She is a useless trust fund baby with political ties, that's why! Her lack of qualifications in her previous position is dumbfounding. Due to those very political connections, the best the leadership could do was "demote" her to her current position (though still an important one deserving of a person with IT qualifications). Ah, America the beautiful.
Why is a non-practicing attorney with no IT experience the head of IT for a 50,000 employee organization? And before this, why was she head of the police department's Lower Manhattan counter-terrorism program fresh out of grad school? Perhaps WNYC can do a story on this, since it makes about as much sense as having your IT guy be in charge of the city's law department.
This kind of nonsense doesn't fly in the corporate world, I don't know why it is acceptable for government. This is the best candidate for the job the country's biggest police force, or just the cheapest because she is turning down salary like our prior mayor?

Nowell Myres
John Nowell Linton Myres CBE (27 December 1902 - 25 September 1989) was a British archaeologist and Bodley's Librarian at the Bodleian Library in Oxford from 1948 until his resignation in 1965; and librarian of Christ Church before his Bodleian appointment.
His father Sir John Myres had been Wykeham Professor of Ancient History at Oxford. Nowell Myres was educated at Winchester College and then New College, Oxford and was president of the Oxford University Archaeological Society in 1923. He became a tutor at Christ Church from 1928.
He was recognised as a leading authority on British history in the time of the Anglo Saxons and earlier. He and R. G. Collingwood wrote the first volume of the Oxford History of England which was widely recognised as a classic. When the series was re-released in the 1980s this volume was split in two, Peter Salway writing what had been Collingwood's part and Myres rewriting his own part at an impressively advanced age.

Silicone Injections May Prove Deadly According to Several Research Studies
(#1119731, Sunday, October 23, 3:00 PM Eastern)
(#1119840, Sunday, October 23, 7:30 PM Eastern)
(#1119859, Monday, October 24, 1:15 PM Eastern)
Reports of adverse events, including death, from silicone injections for cosmetic purposes have been increasing in both medical and consumer literature. Researchers from Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans, Louisiana; Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan; and Olive View-UCLA Medical Center in Sylmar, California all reported cases of near-lethal and lethal silicone use. Legitimate use of liquid silicone injections during plastic surgery is rare; however, illegal use in quasi-sterile conditions is rampant. Despite silicone being considered chemically inert and used in implantable medical devices, injectable liquid silicone has demonstrated potentially deadly results. In one of these three studies, the patient died, while two patients were hospitalized and experienced respiratory and nerve damage caused by receiving injections of liquid silicone. Furthermore, death from silicone embolism syndrome has been reported to be as high as 33%. Soft tissue injection for cosmetic purposes is especially dangerous and frequently deadly, at the very least resulting in a number of complications throughout the body. Considering the potential outcomes of respiratory distress and potential death, people should be informed abou

Bethesda Softworks has released a new patch for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, its popular role-playing game. The new patch upgrades the game to version 1.1.0605, and it adds several new features including auto-run, a combat health meter for creatures and non-player characters, and a difficulty slider with 200 different difficulty settings. It also includes improved support for multiple plug-ins that lets players use two or more plug-ins that affect the same cell without losing references.
The developer plans to release several new official plug-ins for the game soon, as well as an exporter that will let players export custom 3D models from 3D Studio Max for use in the game.
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind was released in early May. The ambitious role-playing game lets players undertake a wide variety of quests and freely explore a huge medieval fantasy world. For more information, take a look at our full review of the game.

Mayawati urged the voters to support BSP "which is the only party which does not make castles in the air, but does work on the ground".
Earlier, addressing a rally in Ambala in Haryana, she said voters must elect maximum BSP candidates so that the balance of power remains with the party which would enable it to play a crucial role in government formation at the Centre.
She dubbed both Congress and BJP as "puppets in the hands of capitalists".
Hitting out at UPA, Mayawati said there was an apprehension that the government wants to do away with reservations for SC and BC as "without correspondingly increasing the quota, more and more castes were being included for reservation."
"This time you will have to show good results, so that BSP emerges as a strong force at the Centre...Like UP, we will run the government at the Centre which will work for welfare of all sections," she said and spelt out other steps which BSP will take, if it comes to power.
She highlighted her government's achievement on law and order front and prevention of riots by strictly dealing with such situation at the very outset in Uttar Pradesh.
"During our rule, among our main achievement was to maintain communal harmony and to work for welfare of all sections of the society," she said.
She claimed that if voted to power her government will work for the poor, downtrodden and other deprived sections, unlike the UPA and NDA coalitions which promise much, but fail to deliver.
In an obvious reference to opinion polls, Mayawati said parties opposed to BSP try to project their strong footing through the media and asked the voters not be misled by this.
She also said that to woo voters before the polls, new policies are framed by the government at the Centre, but these often get dumped when they come to power later on.
"You also have to be wary of the poll manifestos of parties as not even half of promises are kept when they taste power. Don't be influenced by false claims they make. We do not issue such manifestos, because we believe in doing work on the ground rather than making mere promises," she said.

I have 2008 GSA bought last year second hand with only 8000km and full service history and after 6000km I had to replace Rear ESA unit due to leak which BMW replaced free under goodwill maybe admitting problems with earlier units
After another 12000km trip to Nordkapp and down to Greece and 3 months the front unit was leaking. This time after much arguing with BMW through a great Greek Dealer they covered half the cost of the unit but I got a 2 year warranty which I did'nt get with the free one.
Anyway this does'nt inspire confidence in a bike sold as capable of conquring the world. Mine has only about 5% offroad use althought this year I have covered another20.000km mostly on very very bad Russian , Ukranian and Eastern European roads full of giant potholes and corrugations without any further problems. Ayear on 55000km
At BMW Motorrad Days in Germany this year I talked to both Hyperpro, Wilbers and Ohlins about replacing the suspension units
Not having driven any of these and having to rely on others by far the best value are the Wilbers which upgrade and reuse the orginal BMW parts making them servieable and repairable with a 5 year warranty for a third of the cost of the other 2.
I know which one I will replace mine with soon.

The world of Howler's sophomore album
By Zach McCormick
Our buddy Sean Tyler, from Rough Trade, who booked the tour, was like, "Well, I'll tell you, this kid had e-mailed us for two years saying, 'You gotta come play Scotland.'" And [the kid] had thrown out crazy shit, like, "I'll fly you here."
You just kind of write it off because you get weird e-mails like that, anyway. But apparently he had tracked down Tyler, and he had thrown out some amount that he would pay us, and Sean was like, "Look, there's just no way we can fit it in. They're not here for that long."
And every time Tyler would e-mail him and tell him "no," the guy would write back with some higher number. It eventually reached this amount of money that was just stupid. Like, I wouldn't pay it to see tomorrow.
So Tyler was just like, "I went ahead and took it. It's doable."
So we ended up having this thing where we played Brighton. We literally had an hour to hang out with people and then we had to jump in this van and drive all night. And we got into Haddington at noon the next day or whatever.
What we found out was, this kid--he's not really a kid, he's probably 23--wasn't a promoter at all. Which is fine; we're used to that. But what he had done is that Scotland has this thing where it's a kind of "youth help" deal. You can apply to get money to do things that are supposedly going to help youth. So he applied for money saying he wanted to promote a show that would get kids to play musical instruments, to get them off the street. So they gave him all this crazy money. It was at this community center. And he'd built this stage. We told him he didn't have to do all that, and he's like, in his Scottish accent: "That doesn't matter, I've got the money!"
We showed up and it was a Scottish village, it wasn't a city by any means. But the posters were everywhere. And people knew who we were before we got there, because everybody knew about him applying for the money and getting the money. So we showed up. Man, his dad drove up in a hatchback filled to the roof with beer. There were like three moms who had made the craziest spread ever. It was seriously like an Old Country Buffet in this community center. We were on tour with our friends the Tone from England and they were like, "God, I've never seen anything like this in my life." And then newspapers showed up to take pictures of us with him.
So we do the show, and it was great. It was weird, everyone [had come], from these punks that had come down from Edinburgh, [to] these little kids in Korn shirts. And then there'd be these 60- or 70-year-old people who came just because it's this event in this town.
Afterwards we hung out and had a great time walking around and drinking with all these lunatics from the town. And later on, we found out the thing was such a big success that they chose this guy as the example of what the youth of Scotland should be: You know, get things done, apply for money. He got invited to go to this castle and meet the royal family from England. It's totally funny.
I made a joke to him at one point. We were there and I was like, "Man, this place rules. Everybody's funny, everybody's cool, everybody's nice. I ought to come and live here."
And his dad totally took it literally, and he e-mailed me maybe three months ago. His dad, who works at a brewery there, was like, "You know, if you need a job, we can get you one."

OK, it got interesting tonight. Hit with my usual partner and spent much of the eve going back and forth between the Head IG 16x19 and my Donnay Dark Red. The DR was pummeling the ball when I had time to set up, but sometimes I struggled a bit to catch up to the harder hit balls back at me (the partner goes after the ball, hits many screamers). Was also bothered by the full bed of Vs. Gut in the DR, as the string was just moving around like crazy and the ball was just jumping. Definitely gonna replace the string with a low-powered poly or poly-hybrid setup for less string movement. ... Meanwhile, the Head continued to do nothing wrong and it was easier for me to wrist back some shots on the run and play defense. Was getting good depth control, too.
Then came the surprise. For kicks, decided to pull out the Yonex Ti 80 Lite that I'd hit with for maybe five minutes the other day before deciding it was too light. I don't know what I was thinking then because suddenly I felt like a magician. It's about the same static weight as the Head Speed, but with a lighter swingweight (according to listed specs), and suddenly I was able to get some really great last-second wrist action to change the direction of the ball. The partner kept coming in, I kept ripping it past him. Once I got my timing down to wait just a bit longer before swinging (I think I got thrown off last time by going down in weight from the DR to the Lite), I found a zone where I was picking my spots and shooting the ball there. We'd been playing several rally games of 20 and I'd been barely losing most of them all night, and then with the Ti 80 I started killing him. Best thing of all: the Ti 80 Lite feels exactly like the regular Ti 80, which is to say you get an incredible feel of the ball (even better than the Head Speed, I think). The regular Ti80 just was a bit too sluggish for me, but this one is suddenly making me think twice. Haven't served with it, though, so that could make big difference, but I'm glad I decided to pull it out of the bag for one more chance. If it serves as well as the Head, we may have an interesting battle between these two sticks.
Ugh. I hate this. But I love it.

Notwithstanding the SP's move to keep it on tenterhooks in Rajya Sabha, the government today expressed confidence that it would have a smooth sailing in the trial of strength in Parliament on the FDI in retail.
"I am confident of both houses," parliamentary affairs minister Kamal Nath said when asked about the numbers in Rajya Sabha in the wake of SP giving mixed signals, indicating that it would vote against the government in Rajya Sabha while supporting it in Lok Sabha.
He also urged the UPA's outside partners like SP and BSP to "look at the politics" of the FDI issue in Parliament.
"I cannot comment on what other parties are doing. But I will be urging parties to look at the politics of it and to vote with the government. Because it is clearly a political move, nothing to do with FDI in retail. That is a matter to states to decide to avail of this," the minister said when asked about the Samajwadi Party's stand on the issue.
Noting that the state governments can take their own call on allowing FDI in retail in their region, Nath said, "all political parties from the states have been talking about federalism and empowering the states. Here, we have empowered the state."
"And when we empower the state, you are saying that why you empower the state," the minister said outside Parliament house.
Meanwhile, Trinamool Congress MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay said that the FDI decision violates the Constitutional principles and the party will raise the issue in Parliament during the debate.
"FDI is against the Constitutional measures. We have studied the issue. We will take up this issue in the house," he told reporters outside Parliament.

We all have our core issues; struggles of discouragement, self-worth, pride, fear, bitterness, gossip, envy, lies, and ingratitude. These must be identified and destroyed before we can be the woman God created us to be. Yet it isn't our own doing that brings about change. As Weaver points out, being with Jesus Christ isn't enough: we need His Spirit in us. Step-by-step, Joanna strives to bring the reader closer to His Spirit. Included in this book are many beneficial sidebars that offer practical advice for our journey.
I found Having a Mary Spirit to be a wonderful encouragement for my own Christian life. With chapters such as "A Mary Heart," "Twisted Sisters," "Mind Control," "The Flesh Women Diet," and "Spirit Led," Joanna instills in the reader a desire to seek a change in her own life. Through humorous anecdotes, Joanna shares with the reader from her own experience and warns her of the pitfalls she might uncover in her own journey to create a Mary-like spirit. Janice LaQuiere, Christian Book Previews.com
Editorial Reviews
"Once again, Joanna Weaver guides us gently, lovingly, yet firmly along the life-changing path of righteousness. Her honesty about her own struggles assures us we're not alone. And her commitment to biblical truth reminds us God will be with us every step of the way. I promise you'll emerge from this reading experience a changed woman!"
Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible
"Reading Having a Mary Spirit is like having a cherished friend visit and speak right to my heart. As someone who loved Having a Mary Heart in Martha World, this second book focuses on intimacy with Christ, but it also takes us deeper, showing us--through personal anecdotes and touching stories--the joy found in turning ourselves over for a holy makeover. If you're ready for a transformed spirit, you'll adore this book!"
Tricia Goyer, award-winning author of eight books including Generation NeXt Parenting
"It seems the most authentic books are the ones that inch their way out of an ordinary life and quietly speak of all that is eternal. That is the case with Having a Mary Spirit. This personal and life-pondering book will strengthen and soothe the places in your spirit where your everyday life has left you parched. Drink deeply!"
Robin Jones Gunn, Bestselling author of Sisterchicks® on the Loose! and Take Flight!
Weaver spends 16 delightfully entertaining and spiritually hefty chapters challenging and entreating women to allow God entrance to the hearts inner places for a "soul-surgery" of sorts. She discusses guarding ones heart from distractions and cynicism, bringing thoughts under control, honing a fearless, courageous attitude, and learning to adopt a discerning, malleable and servant-minded spirit. Weavers insight is keen and far-reaching, patient and practical. …Weaver has a way of approaching even the most tried subject matter with a neighborliness that both charms and enthralls.
