SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Pink elephants are usually invoked in the same spirit as flying pigs. Both are emblematic of silly fantasies generated by intoxication or an aberrant imagination. And yet the truth is that there are such beasts as pink elephants. Many of them live in India where the soil is red. They constantly spray dust on themselves to serve as a barrier against insects, and in so doing take on a permanent pink hue. Let's make those pink elephants your power animals in the coming week, Sagittarius. They'll be an inspiration as you start turning one of your seemingly unlikely or impossible dreams into a practical reality.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The astrological omens will soon favor a splashy union. It could come in the form of a wedding or a reworking of your marriage vows. It could mean an adventurous collaboration with a business partner or a deepened commitment to an old ally. You might even consider intensifying your devotion to an idea that inspires you or sharpening your concentration on a future event that will marshal your lust for life.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A man in Illinois was growing increasingly impatient with his two houseguests. He didn't like how much crack they smoked, and was hesitant to bring a potential girlfriend home for fear she'd be turned off by the seedy ambiance. Unable to convince the drug-crazed parasites to leave, he resorted to an extreme measure: He set his own house on fire. The ploy worked, in the sense that his house was empty again. Unfortunately, the damage was so extensive that he himself couldn't live there anymore. Make sure you don't do anything similar in the coming week, Aquarius. There are lots of effective ways to get rid of a certain annoyance without hurting your own interests.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Psychiatrist R.D. Laing espoused a view of insanity that's radically different from the conventional wisdom. He said the rules of the game in the so-called normal world are crazy and sick. So when a person has a breakdown and no longer agrees to play by those rules, it's actually a sign of vitality. In fact, a period of chaotic rebellion may be the only way to burst free from the lunacy of everyday life. Eventually, of course, the escapee has to return to a semblance of mental health and create a new relationship with the normal world, though in such a way that he or she will be less susceptible to its pathologies. Often the process I've just described is a terrible ordeal, even when it results in a dramatic healing. But right now, you Pisceans can experience a fun and enjoyable version of it.

THE 43rd PRESIDENT; Text of Supreme Court Ruling in Bush v. Gore Florida Recount Case
Published: December 14, 2000
(Page 12 of 17)
And in Central Union Telephone Co. v. Edwardsville, we upheld the Illinois Supreme Court' s interpretation of a state waiver rule, even though that interpretation resulted in the forfeiture of federal constitutional rights. Refusing to supplant Illinois law with a federal definition of waiver, we explained that the state court' s declaration ''should bind us unless so unfair or unreasonable in its application to those asserting a federal right as to obstruct it.''
In deferring to state courts on matters of state law, we appropriately recognize that this Court acts as an '' 'outsider' lacking the common exposure to local law which comes from sitting in the jurisdiction.'' That recognition has sometimes prompted us to resolve doubts about the meaning of state law by certifying issues to a state's highest court, even when federal rights are at stake. (''Warnings against premature adjudication of constitutional questions bear heightened attention when a federal court is asked to invalidate a state's law, for the federal tribunal risks friction-generating error when it endeavors to construe a novel state act not yet reviewed by the state's highest court.'') Notwithstanding our authority to decide issues of state law underlying federal claims, we have used the certification devise to afford state high courts an opportunity to inform us on matters of their own state's law because such restraint ''helps build a cooperative judicial federalism.''
Just last Term, in Fiore v. White, we took advantage of Pennsylvania's certification procedure. In that case, a state prisoner brought a federal habeas action claiming that the state had failed to prove an essential element of his charged offense in violation of the due process clause.Instead of resolving the state-law question on which the federal claim depended, we certified the question to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court for that court to ''help determine the proper state-law predicate for our determination of the federal constitutional questions raised.''
The chief justice's willingness to reverse the Florida Supreme Court's interpretation of Florida law in this case is at least in tension with our reluctance in Fiore even to interpret Pennsylvania law before seeking instruction from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. I would have thought the ''cautious approach'' we counsel when federal courts address matters of state law, and our commitment to ''building cooperative judicial federalism,'' demanded greater restraint. Rarely has this court rejected outright an interpretation of state law by a state high court. Fairfax's Devisee V. Hunter's Lessee, N.A.A.C.P. v. Alabama and Bouie v. City of Columbia, cited by the chief justice, are three such rare instances. But those cases are embedded in historical contexts hardly comparable to the situation here. Fairfax's Devisee, which held that the Virginia Court of Appeals had misconstrued its own forfeiture laws to deprive a British subject of lands secured to him by federal treaties, occurred amidst vociferous states' rights attacks on the Marshall Court. The Virginia court refused to obey this court's Fairfax's Devisee mandate to enter judgment for the British subject's successor in interest. That refusal led to the court's pathmarking decision in Martin v. Hunter's Lessee. Patterson, a case decided three months after Cooper v. Aaron, in the face of Southern resistance to the civil rights movement, held that the Alabama Supreme Court had irregularly applied its own procedural rules to deny review of a contempt order against the N.A.A.C.P. arising from its refusal to disclose membership lists. We said that ''our jurisdiction is not defeated if the nonfederal ground relied on by the state court is without any fair or substantial support.'' Bouie, stemming from a lunch counter ''sit-in'' at the height of the civil rights movement, held that the South Carolina Supreme Court' s construction of its trespass laws -- criminalizing conduct not covered by the text of an otherwise clear statute -- was ''unforeseeable'' and thus violated due process when applied retroactively to the petitioners.
The chief justice's casual citation of these cases might lead one to believe they are part of a larger collection of cases in which we said that the Constitution impelled us to train a skeptical eye on a state court's portrayal of state law. But one would be hard pressed, I think, to find additional cases that fit the mold. As Justice Breyer convincingly explains, this case involves nothing close to the kind of recalcitrance by a state high court that warrants extraordinary action by this court. The Florida Supreme Court concluded that counting every legal vote was the overriding concern of the Florida Legislature when it enacted the state's election code. The court surely should not be bracketed with state high courts of the Jim Crow South.
The chief justice says that Article II, by providing that state legislatures shall direct the manner of appointing electors, authorizes federal superintendence over the relationship between state courts and state legislatures, and licenses a departure from the usual deference we give to state court interpretations of state law.

As he took a sip of water from a bottle, Joel "Deadmau5" Zimmerman came up from behind him."So what song are you doing next?" he asked, taking a water bottle from the ice chest."Kill Everybody," Sonny answered. he planned the set list over a month ago."That's one of my favorites," Joel smiled while looking down at Sonny."Sixty seconds til your next song, Mr. Moore!" Jane called. She was his personal assistant."Thanks, Jane," he said, pushing his glasses up past the bridge of his nose."Hurry up. I want to get a seat in the front and see this song," Joel said, walking backwards towards the door."Go! You only have thirty seconds left now," Sonny motioned for his friend to leave. Joel laughed and exited the room. Sonny sighed. He didn't like it when he left, but he loved every second he spent with Joel."Mr. Moore!" Jame shouted.

Many visitors and vendors at the Marina Beach spent Sunday evening collecting plastic trash from the sands. And 120 of them won silver coins for their effort. "Look at all the coupons I have collected. For every 100 gram of plastic that I collected and gave at the counter, I received coupons," explained S.V. Avvai, a student of class seven at Lady Wellington School, who collected plastic waste along with V. Jebaselvi, her classmate, and her sister V. Nancy.
The children said that this was a nice idea: giving away silver and gold coins through a lucky draw, to keep the beach clean. A. Madurai, who came to the beach for a stroll, also got a silver coin. "I didn't know there was such a competition on today," he said.
Coupons were distributed for plastic waste collected at seven counters set up by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) and the Chennai Corporation, as part of an awareness programme on plastics.
Environment Minister B.V. Ramana said the State government had sanctioned Rs.100 crore this year to lay roads using plastic material. He urged residents to segregate garbage at the source so as to reuse and recycle plastics.
Mayor Saidai S. Duraisamy said that in the next three months, the Chennai Corporation would ensure that collection and disposal of garbage is done in a scientific manner. He claimed that fires were being set at garbage dump yards by those who wanted to create a bad name for the government and the civic body. TNPCB Member Secretary S. Balaji was also present on the occasion. The event was supported by the Chennai Plastics Manufacturers and Merchants' Association.
Though the Chennai Corporation had banned the use of plastics on the Marina in August 2009, beach-users and a section of shopkeepers continue to use plastic. Plastic bags and water sachets sold in shops were seized as part of the ban, and in November 2010, the civic body had announced that a fine of Rs. 100 would be collected from people who violated the ban on the beach. The Corporation had also extended the ban to parks, places of worship and tourist spots.
"Not many people take the effort to put garbage into a bin. Only one in, say a hundred, would bother to put a piece of paper that was wrapped around a corn cob in their bags to dispose of it properly. Shopkeepers and food stall owners ensure that they clear garbage from around their regular spots after the evening's work," said Thaiyalnayaki, a flower vendor.
Beach-goers however feel that the ban on plastics has not been followed up by the new regime at Ripon Buildings.
Despite claims that the sands are cleaned by a machine on a daily basis, many regular beach-goers find the sands dirty. R. Kesavan, a resident of Triplicane said that apart from small stones, pieces of glass, ice-cream spoons, pan parag sachets and corn cobs can be found on the sand. "You cannot walk barefoot for fear of getting hurt. Hundreds of children play on the sand — just imagine if someone got cut by a piece of glass. The Corporation should ensure that the sand is cleaned and sieved regularly," he said.

A senior ticket checker of Central Railway has been detained by Jalgaon railway police after people accused the him of pushing a lady in the train onto the tracks. BS Salunkhe was detained by the railway police minutes after the Kurla Terminus Rajendranagar Express was supposed to leave platform number 3 of Jalgaon station at around 5.50 am.
According to railway officials, a lady in her mid- thirties along with a boy and a girl tried to board the 21st coach of the train as it was leaving. Salunkhe was checking tickets in this coach and was at the door. The railways' version of the event is that Salunkhe helped the boy and girl safely onto the train but couldn't help the lady who fell through the gap between the train and platform and lost her life. The guard in the train applied emergency brakes and halted the train. The crowd that had assembled by then marched Salunkhe to the cops, said the officials.
Meanwhile, the Central Railways officials have retrieved the CCTV footage of the event and are in the process of handing it over to the railway police. A team from CR's CST headquarters has rushed to Jalgaon. The train left for Rajendranagar an hour later around 7.00 am said officials.
Salunkhe is a former wrestler who has won national level awards.

CHAPMANVILLE — As Nick Brumfield's high school baseball career progressed it was soon evident he would most likely some day get a shot.
A shot at playing at the next level.
Some day that day would come.
That day was Thursday at Chapmanville Regional High School as the senior pitcher for the Tigers' baseball team signed a national letter of intent to play collegiately at Division II Salem International University.
Brumfield, a right-handed All-Cardinal Conference starting pitcher for Chapmanville, was a member of the Tigers' 2011 Class AA state championship team as a freshman.
Since his ninth-grade year, Brumfield has been an impact pitcher for the Tigers and has seen a lot of mound time.
Chapmanville coach Eric Ellis said he's thrilled to see him get a chance to pitch in college.
"He's been a four-year starter for us on the mound," Ellis said. "Those guys usually go on to pursue baseball at the next level. We've had a pretty succcessful program and he stepped in as a ninth-grader and pitched well. He's a great kid and he comes from a good family. He's been a true asset to our program. We look forward to seeing him pitch at the next level."
Ellis said Brumfield's fastball is his best pitch.
"He's good a good fastball and a good curve. He's got a change-up and he's also developed a cutter that he's been working on," Ellis said. "He's thrown it with a lot of success."
Brumfield was 5-0 last season with a 1.78 ERA. He struck out 33 batters and walked only three in 35.1 innings of work.
If you have seen Brumfield pitch any over the years you know him when you see him.
It's the big leg kick that sticks out.
Brumfield's leg kick is very high and very Dennis Eckersley-esque for those that are old enough to remember the Oakland A's star pitcher.
"He actually reminds me a lot of Len Barker of the Cleveland Indians, who I used to see pitch," Ellis said. "These guys here probably don't know who we are talking about. His leg kick is a little quirk and he's done it since Little League and he's gotten used to it. It can be a distraction for the hitter because it hides the ball. He's had a lot of success pitching for us and hopefully that will continue the rest of the season."
Brumfield started pitching for the Tigers as a freshman and earned himself some mound time on a very talented team that finished 35-3.
"That was our state title team. That was a special team obviously but Nick stepped in and pitched some for us that year and that says a lot about Nick," Ellis said.
Brumfield said he's happy to get a chance to pitch at Salem.
"It's going to be a new chapter in my life," he said. "Pitching four years of varsity ball has really helped me. We have a good coaching staff at Chapmanville and they really helped me."
Brumfield said his high herky-jerky leg kick carried over from his Chapmanville Little League days.
"I picked that up when I was in Little League. My dad told me about pitchers such as Juan Marichal. I kept it and hopefully I can keep it in college," he said.
Brumfield said it was great to be a part of the Tigers' '11 team.
"It was really exciting," he said. "It was a great atmosphere and hopefully we can take it back this year. We've got a really good chance."
Brumfield said he plans on studying criminal justice at Salem with a goal of possibily joining the FBI ranks some day.
"I give God all my glory," Brumfield said, summing it up.

Even today, 70 years after the first immigrants arrived in Williamsburg from the impoverished hilltop town, many of the locals are given a first, middle, or confirmation name of Cono. In fact, if you shout "Cono" on Graham Avenue today, heads are still likely to turn. Facing off across the corner of Graham Avenue and Ainslie Street are two unrelated restaurants, the pricey Cono's O Pescatore and the more modest S. Cono Pizzeria, the latter named in honor of the saint. Easily the best pizzeria in Williamsburg, this brightly lit establishment turns out Sicilian and Neapolitan pies, garlic knots, sausage rolls, and cheese-and-ham-stuffed stromboli strewn with sesame seeds. More unusual is their pan pizza, a new-world invention with a thick crust and a ridge running around the circumference.
This shell is filled with fresh ricotta and mozzarella, ground meat, and crushed tomatoes to make the magnificent lasagna pizza ($19), a gut bomb that's found in only a few other places in the borough, most notably Romano in Dyker Heights. It qualifies as one of Brooklyn's proudest culinary inventions. Similarly delectable is the elemental marinara slice ($2), topped only with sweet red crushed tomatoes and garlic. In addition to pizza, there's a full array of antipasta, pasta, and entrées, making you wonder if this humble pizza parlor can make good on the extravagant promise of its menu. On a recent visit, nearly every table sported a platter of broccoli rabe in one guise or another. You can have the bitter vegetablesouthern Italian soul foodsautéed with garlic and olive oil, or tossed with any of the pastas on the mix-and-match pasta and sauce rosters.

Among Teggianese, cavatelli is the favorite pasta, short hand-rolled noodles with a groove that grips the sauce. S. Cono's best sauce, by the way, is puttanesca, a piquant tomato concoction incorporating capers, chiles, and two types of olives. The name translates as "harlot's sauce," either because of the ease of preparation between tricks, or because of its sharp and salty flavor.
As numerous as the pizzas and pastas are the heros. I was able to eat only a few of the 34 offered, but my favorite so far is potato and egg ($4.50). Another southern Italian passion is rice balls, heaped with sauce and cheese and thrust into the oven. As they emerged deliciously steaming, I couldn't help peeking into the oven's deep recessesto see if a small boy might be hiding inside.

Strong storm greets SoCal on first day of spring
LOS ANGELES The first day of spring arrived with a bang in Southern California on Sunday, bringing heavy snow to the mountains and illuminating the sky with flashes of lightning from Santa Barbara to downtown Los Angeles.
The National Weather Service issued winter storm warnings for much of Southern California, advising people to be alert for road closures, high winds, street flooding, downed trees and other hazards.
By mid-afternoon Sunday as much as 3 inches of rain had fallen and shut down several streets in parts of Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley, with nearly 1.5 inches pelting coastal cities and close to 2 inches falling on Hollywood. Rain was heaviest in the foothill areas.
High winds downed trees that in some cases damaged homes and broke windows in the valley, downtown Los Angeles and throughout the region.
The mountains were expected to get as much as 3 feet of snow at the higher elevations, making this an unusually strong storm for this time of year, said Stuart Seto of the National Weather Service.
"Usually later in the year they kind of taper off," he said. "Old Man Winter, I guess, wanted to take one more bite out of us before leaving."
The storm illuminated the downtown skyline with a bright lightning flash just as thousands of runners were beginning the Los Angeles Marathon on Sunday morning. Neither the lightning nor the pouring rain seemed to bother the elite runners, as Markos Geneti ran the course in a record time of 2 hours, 6 minutes, 35 seconds to finish first among the men.
"When it first started raining it was freezing cold and I got a little sick," Amy Hastings, who finished second among the women, told KTLA-TV at the finish line. But as the weather warmed, she said, the rainfall made for a pleasant experience.
Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics had treated about 100 runners - most for hypothermia - by mid-afternoon, said firefighter Diana Igawa. Sixty people were taken to hospitals, including one person who suffered a broken arm.
At the finish line in Santa Monica, paramedics wrapped hundreds of runners in blankets and brought them into a warming room at a hotel, said Santa Monica fire Capt. Judah Mitchell.
None were believed seriously hurt.
Lightning also lit up Ventura County and Santa Barbara County, where torrential rains brought flash flood warnings.
More than 10 inches of rain fell in the Lake Cachuma area, forcing the release of water from Bradbury Dam, Santa Barbara County spokesman David Flamm said.
Flamm said the release was helping the lake level off, but heavy flow in the Santa Ynez River brought had officials warning residents in the Lompoc Valley that they might need to evacuate.
The U.S. Coast Guard and Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol rescued a family of four - including a 6-month-old baby and a dog - whose sailboat broke loose from its moorings amid high surf and strong winds. No one was injured.
Flood warnings also were issued for Los Angeles-area hillside communities burned by wildfires in recent years.

We kept wondering when we were actually going to see him this year (and unfortunately he wound up missing the two events where he'd see his best competition) and now Darrion Caldwell is finally back, and he seems to be pretty much the same guy that he's always been as he's 6-0 right now with five pins. He really hasn't wrestled anyone yet as the most significant of those wins so far was his fall over Josh Roosa in his first match back, but its encouraging for his future prospects to see that he's dominating guys that he's supposed to dominate. He would have wrestled his best opponent so far this past weekend but wound up sitting out of the dual against Virginia and missing an opportunity to wrestle Derek Valenti. He's got matches left on his schedule with Parks and Stephens, then he should see Stephens again at ACC's but he'll definitely come into NCAA's relatively untested against the best of the best guys at weight.
Dake came in this year off his hugely successful true freshman national championship season moving up a weight class. Given that he was probably the biggest 141 in the entire country last year he hasn't had much of an issue size wise but he hasn't exactly set the world on fire this year like he did last year though. He spent the early part of the year banged up and struggling with getting down to weight, and wound up missing both the Body Bar and Las Vegas tournaments as a result. The Body Bar wasn't a huge loss but he'd have seen some tough guys out in Vegas. Right now he's still undefeated having recorded shut out wins over Stephens (10-0), Molinaro (1-0), and Jantzen (2-0). The Molinaro and Jantzen matches are pretty emblematic of his general style, he's so good at defending shots and he's tough enough on top to where much like Russell he can salt matches away even if he isn't turning you. If he's healthy though I think Caldwell is just too athletic while still being a very talented wrestler to where he'll beat Dake.
Coming into the year I wondered if I wasn't not showing enough love to the Gorilla Hulk given that all of his losses from last year were now gone from the weight class, however much in the same vein of the last two guys an injury (in his case a broken bone in his foot) has caused that question to possibly remain a little unclear here at the halfway point of the season. Since he made his return at the Sprawl 'N Brawl though things have kind of gotten back to form for him. He still likes to get out and take a lot of shots and beat people up on the feet, still tough on top, still can be ridden or at least he still believes that he could be ridden. That ineffectiveness on bottom cost him in one of his two losses this year as he took neutral in his Scuffle final against Dake and wound up losing 1-0. He's split matches this year with Mario Mason coming out victorious in his first match back in the line up, and losing in the Nittany Lion Open finals as Mason's final victim in his run of defeating three straight Penn State wrestlers. Other than those matches he's got a pair of majors over Torsten Gillespie, and a win over Sakaguchi. Came into the year predicting him to pretty much walk through the Big 10 and while I'm higher on some guys now than I was in the pre-season I still like Molinaro as the heavy favorite.
Kevin LeValley continues to function this year much like he did last year, just cruising along under the radar and continuing to win. Mario Mason recently knocked him from the undefeated list, but other than that lost he has been far more consistent so far this year. He got started early this year with a shut out win over Gillespie in the All Star match. Other than that he's got another win over Gillespie, he's got wins over Dylan Ness and Cole Schmitt en route to winning the Midlands, then he's also beaten Kinser, Parks, and Lopouchanski. He's got a little bit of a lull stretch now in terms of his level of competition, he won't see a ranked opponent from now until his last dual of the year where he'll wrestle Sanjaa. That should leave a prospective match up between him Dake at EIWA's as one of the more interesting matches at conference tournaments.
I liked Jason Chamberlain last year as a breakout guy, he spent most of the year wrestling kind of inconsistently before knocking off LeValley and making the quarters at NCAA's (where he fell victim to a brutal pin by Lance Palmer) before going out in the Round of 12. So far this year he's seemingly fixed the consistency aspect as he's undefeated so far having won the Las Vegas and Reno tournaments, but he still hasn't exactly been blowing people away. Part of that is a function of his competition level as he just hasn't run into many top level guys so far. He has three wins over Sakaguchi, and then other wins over Kinser and Jantzen. He'll see Sakaguchi here again in a few weeks but the match that may be most telling as to whether or not he's ready to be a contender this year will be when he wrestles Parks in Boise's last dual of the year before Pac-10's. Should he win that will immediately become his best win of the year headed into the post season.
Thinking back to the pre-season predictions that I did, I recall a rather spirited debate occurring between myself and another poster pertaining to the likelihood of Mr. Mason making the All American podium. I was arguing in the affirmative due to Mason's seemingly higher comfort level this year at Rutgers both because he was closer to home and with the coaching staff, and it causes me endless joy to see that at least over the first half that I was right. Mason has looked much improved this year both in terms of his results and in terms of just his overall demeanor on the mat. Had a little bit of a slow start, taking all of his losses during the first month of the year (decisions to Molinaro and Green, and a fall to Steve Santos) but since December he's been very tough recording marquee wins over Molinaro and LeValley. He's got matches with Stephens and Sanjaa left on the schedule, and he'll be an interesting addition to that already mentioned pairing of Dake and LeValley as far as quality guys who won't have met before their conference tournaments.
I spent quite a bit of time debating as to who to go with here in these last two spots (if you have the time take a look at D1CW and see how Schmitt, Stephens, Parks, Kinser, and LeValley have exchanged wins this year) and wound up going with Schmitt here. He's a guy who like Kyle Dake moved up from 141 last year where he was kind of back and forth. He was solid but he had a tendency to get blown out by some of the top level guys. So far this year he's got two wins over Accordino, and then other wins over Sanjaa, Nadhir, and Stephens. He's got a pair of losses to Lopouchanski, and then he's also beeen beaten by Stephens, Jantzen, and LeValley. Stylistically I like him as he's a guy who is getting better at being hard to score on (from the feet anyway, he's still susceptible to being turned) and he's tough on top.
Came into the year pretty high on Stephens as a break out guy this year and while he's performed well enough to earn a spot on this list he's been kind of inconsistent as to what I actually expected him to do (although again look at D1CW for the results between these two guys and my Round of 12) as odd as that sounds given that I only picked him as a R12 guy. So far this year he's beaten Gillespie, Schmitt, Lopouchanski, Accordino, and Parks. Then like most of his teammates in the Virginia Tech line up he's taken his fair share of losses this year as an individual having lost to Kinser twice, and then also to Carr, Lopouchanski, Schmitt, and Dake. To his credit other than the loss to Dake all of his other losses have been very close and he's been in the match until the end.

Winter wheat crop needs break from rain
Cool temperatures through March kept some Mississippians comfortable, but they slowed the development of wheat, the state's only row crop grown through winter.
Erick Larson, corn and wheat state specialist with the MSU Extension Service, said wheat acreage is high this year, with 420,000 acres planted in the fall. State growers planted 500,000 acres in 2007, but this year marks the second highest planting since 1990.
Brian Williams, Extension agricultural economist, said July wheat futures were trading as high as $7.30 the third week of March.

Rodman, Kim Jong Un watch game
SEOUL, South Korea
Ex-NBA star Dennis Rodman hung out with North Korea's Kim Jong Un during his improbable journey to Pyongyang, watching the Harlem Globetrotters with the leader and later drinking and dining on sushi with him.
DIPLOMAT DENNISWill Dennis Rodman bring more than basketball goodwill to North Korea? Greg Couch sizes up the trip.
''You have a friend for life,'' Rodman told Kim before a crowd of thousands Thursday at a gymnasium where they sat side by side, chatting as they watched players from North Korea and the United States face off in mixed teams, Alex Detrick, a spokesman for the New York-based VICE media company, told The Associated Press.
Rodman arrived in Pyongyang on Monday with three members of the professional Harlem Globetrotters basketball team, VICE correspondent Ryan Duffy and a production crew to shoot an episode on North Korea for a new weekly HBO series.
The unlikely encounter makes Rodman the most high-profile American to meet Kim since the young North Korean leader took power in December 2011, and takes place against a backdrop of tension between Washington and Pyongyang. North Korea conducted an underground nuclear test just two weeks ago, making clear the provocative act was a warning to the United States to drop what it considers a ''hostile'' policy toward the North.
Kim, a diehard basketball fan, told the former Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls star that he hoped the visit would break the ice between the United States and North Korea, VICE founder Shane Smith said.
Dressed in a blue Mao suit, Kim laughed and slapped his hands on the table before him during the game at the Jong Ju Yong Gymnasium as he sat nearly knee to knee with Rodman. Rodman, the man who once turned up in a wedding dress to promote his autobiography, wore a dark suit and dark sunglasses, but still had on his nose rings and other piercings. A can of Coca-Cola sat on the table before him in photos shared with AP by VICE.
''The crowd was really engaged, laughed at all of the Globetrotters antics, and actually got super loud toward the end as the score got close,'' said Duffy, who suited up for a game in a blue uniform emblazoned with ''United States of America. ''Most fun I've had in a while.''
Kim and Rodman chatted in English, but Kim primarily spoke in Korean through a translator, Smith said after speaking to the VICE crew in Pyongyang.
''They bonded during the game,'' Smith said by telephone from New York after speaking to the crew. ''They were both enjoying the crazy shots, and the Harlem Globetrotters were putting on quite a show.''
The surprise visit by the flamboyant Hall of Famer known as ''The Worm'' makes him an unlikely ambassador at a time when state media says North Koreans are girding for battle with the U.S. Just last week, Kim guided troops in military exercises.
FAN-TASTICCelebrities at playoff games like to see and be seen.
North Korea and the U.S. fought on opposite sides of the three-year Korean War, which ended in a truce in 1953. The foes never signed a peace treaty, and do not have diplomatic relations.
Before Thursday's game, Rodman went up to Kim's perch to offer his greetings.
''Warmly welcoming him, Kim Jong Un let him sit next to him,'' the official Korean Central News Agency reported some 10 hours later.
The Americans presented Kim with a Harlem Globetrotters uniform. For the halftime entertainment, taekwondo athletes showed off some moves and a ''women's brass band presented glamorous rhythmic formations,'' KCNA said.
Thursday's game ended in a 110-110 tie, with two Americans playing on each team alongside North Koreans.
After the game, Rodman addressed Kim in a speech before a crowd of tens of thousands of North Koreans, telling him, ''You have a friend for life,'' Detrick said.
At a lavish dinner later, the leader plied the group with food and drinks and round after round of toasts were made.
''Dinner was an epic feast. Felt like about 10 courses in total,'' Duffy said in an email to AP. ''I'd say the winners were the smoked turkey and sushi, though we had the Pyongyang cold noodles earlier in the trip, and that's been the runaway favorite so far.''
Duffy said he invited Kim to visit the United States, a proposal met with hearty laughter from the North Korean leader.
Kim said he hoped sports exchange would promote ''mutual understanding between the people of the two countries,'' KCNA said.

Rodman's trip is the second attention-grabbing U.S. visit this year to North Korea. Google's executive chairman, Eric Schmidt, made a four-day trip in January to Pyongyang, but did not meet the North Korean leader.
In Washington, the State Department refused comment on Rodman's visit or his meeting with Kim. ''Private, individual Americans are welcome to take actions they see fit,'' spokesman Patrick Ventrell said.
He said the Obama administration wasn't in touch with Rodman and wasn't making an effort to contact him.
The administration had frowned on the trip by Schmidt and former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, but has avoided criticizing Rodman's outing, saying it's about sports.
North Korea's invitation to a man known as much for his piercings, tattoos and bad behavior as for his basketball may seem perplexing. But Kim is known to be a fan of the NBA and has promoted sports since becoming leader.
''We knew that he's a big lover of basketball, especially the Bulls, and it was our intention going in that we would have a good will mission of something that's fun,'' Smith said. ''A lot of times, things just are serious and everybody's so concerned with geopolitics that we forget just to be human beings.''
Rodman's agent, Darren Prince, said Rodman wasn't concerned about criticism about making a visit to an enemy nation.
''Dennis called me last night and said it's been a great experience and he made this trip out of the love of the USA,'' he said. ''It's all about peace and love.''

The Mahler Companion.
The long-awaited Mahler Companion is finally in print, and it was certainly worth the wait. With contributions by nineteen authors (almost all recognized Mahler specialists), it consists of an introduction and twenty-eight chapters, the last of which--a very interesting memoir of Anna Mahler, the composer's daughter--serves as an epilogue. Fifteen chapters are devoted to Mahler's compositions, mostly one per chapter; the earliest completed works and the First Symphony are treated together by John Williamson. A further ten chapters cover Mahler's activity or posthumous influence in various places: Vienna (Leon Botstein), Germany (Morten Solvik), France (Henry-Louis de La Grange), Holland (Eveline Nikkels), Prague (Donald Mitchell), America (Edward R. Reilly), Russia (Inna Barsova), Japan (Kenji Aoyagi), England (Mitchell), and London during Mahler's 1892 visit (Andrew Nicholson); the inclusion of Japan seems tenuous, as it is the only one of these places that Mahler never visited. Of these contributions, Bots tein's is particularly excellent, providing as it does a rich overview of fin de siecle Viennese politics and civic culture, demographics, aesthetics, and cultural politics. The remaining two chapters are Gerard Pesson's largely incomprehensible discussion of Mahler and Claude Debussy, and Wilfrid Mellers's valuable examination of Mahler's place in the history of composition in relation to his predecessors and successors, including Arnold Schoenberg, Alban Berg, Anton Webern, Benjamin Britten, Dmitry Shostakovich, and Charles Ives. Also included in these chapters is the first publication (in facsimile, transcription, and translation) of two Mahler letters: one, of early August 1910 to Emil Herzkta, addresses the dedication of the Eighth Symphony to Alma and has been known to scholars; the other, however, of early November 1907 to Earl Kohler, the proprietor of a St. Petersburg concert agency, was discovered by Inna Barsova and completely unknown up to now. It deals with the preparation of parts for the second rehearsal of the Fifth Symphony before its St. Petersburg premiere on 9 November 1907.
The editors have not imposed consistency of treatment on their authors. As a result, the chapters on the symphonies, for example, are all quite different. Mitchell (Fourth and Fifth), David Matthews (Sixth), Peter Revers (Seventh), and Stephen Hefling (Das Lied von der Erde and Ninth) are very analytical, while Peter Franklin (Third) spends a lot of time on the cultural and philosophical context, and Reilly (Second) and Colin Matthews (Tenth) each include an extensive discussion of the sources for the works as well as their compositional process. Williamson's account of the early works (especially Das klagende Lied and the Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen) and the First Symphony usefully highlights the strong connections between these pieces; I did miss a more in-depth treatment of the First Symphony on its own. It also seems odd not to have a fuller consideration of Hans Rott, given what Williamson terms his "extensive influence on the later Mahler" (p. 42). In view of the strong emphasis on analysis, the Co mpanion really needs to be read with the scores in hand for most chapters, even though Oxford University Press has been very generous in allowing a large number of music examples. (The two copies that I examined were both missing music example 13.8(e) on p. 362; apart from that, the volume seems quite error free.)
One theme that weaves its way through the early chapters is that of Mahler's uneasy relationship with printed programs for his Wunderhorn symphonies. Reilly, Franklin, and Mitchell all tackle this issue. Franklin compellingly argues for a "tension between Mahler's behavior in the public as opposed to the private sphere" (p. 172) in this regard, and Mitchell expands upon Theodor Adorno's telling observation that the more-absolute Fourth has "swallow[ed] the programme" (p. 187). On this topic, however, more consideration of the First would have been helpful, given its conflicted history. It was first performed in 1889 as a two-part symphonic poem without any program; Mahler later devised a detailed program for its 1893 and 1894 performances, but then withdrew it before the work's next performance in 1896.
Of the chapters devoted to the works themselves, only Paul Hamburger's treatment of Mahler and Des Knaben Wunderhorn seems Out of place. Largely written from his viewpoint as a practical musician, it is not without its insights, but it does not demonstrate the same scholarly rigor characteristic of the rest of the volume. For example, Hamburger mistakenly suggests that all ten of the later Wunderhorn songs were originally called Humoresken (p. 71), when in fact it was only the four composed in 1892 (plus "Das himmlische Leben," later used as the last movement of the Fourth) that Mahler briefly referred to by this name. Also, Hamburger oddly seems not to have examined the 1993 critical edition of the piano version of these songs (Samtliche Werke: Kritische Gesamtausgabe [Vienna: Internationale Gustav Mahler Gesellachaft, 1960-], 13:2b), preferring instead to rely on Mitchell's description of their manuscripts in his Gustav Mahler: The Wunderhorn Years (London: Faber, 1975).
It is often the nature of a review to dwell on what is wrong with, or missing from, a volume. Happily, there is not too much more to be said in that regard about The Mahler Companion. Instead, I will highlight several particularly substantial contributions. Reilly's chapter on the Second Symphony could serve as a model for integrating the analysis, source study, and performance history of a work. His discussion of Mahler's programs has already been mentioned; it is noteworthy that he regards Hefling's connection of Todtenfeier (the original version of the first movement) with Adam Mickiewicz's dramatic poem Dziady (in Siegfried Lipiner's translation) as "al most entirely speculative" (p. 93; the reference is to Hefling, "Mahler's 'Todtenfeier' and the Problem of Program Music," 19th-Century Music 12 [1988]: 27-53). Hefling's considerations of the Ruckert songs, Das Lied von der Erde, and the Ninth Symphony are typically insightful, as is David Matthew's strikingly original interpretation of the "Purgatorio" movement of the unfinished Tenth. This he connects not to Dante, as has been generally assumed, but to Lipiner's 1880 book of poems, Buch der Freude, which Mahler reread during the last years of his life (p. 509). He suggests that some lines of Lipiner's poetry were written on the now-missing bottom half of the manuscript title page of the movement, which Alma may have removed and destroyed because they were too personally connected to the Mahlers' 1910 marital crisis. (Matthews proposes that they were either the complete twelfth poem ["Ich kann dir nicht in's Auge seh'n"] or a stanza from the first one ["Die Holle lieben: kannst du Das versteh'n?"].)
But it is Mitchell's many contributions that form the heart of the volume--particularly the three-chapter, 138-page discussion of Mahler's 1901-2 change of style. This indefatigable scholar has essentially given us one of the missing middle books of his Mahler series, written in his inimitable, invaluable, and chockablock-full style. He sees the Fourth Symphony as negotiating the twin rubrics of Experience and Innocence, and, with reference to Kinder-totenlieder and the last two Wunderhorn songs, he examines what he calls Mahler's "Kammermusikton," the new, chamber-music-like textures found in Mahler's middle- and late-period works. In Mitchell's estimation, Mahler's stylistic transition takes place within the score of the Fifth Symphony itself: we move from the "Der Tamboursg' sell"-influenced first movement (and hence from the Wunderhorn world) to the Ruckert-like Adagietto (and, by extension, to Mahler's "Kammermusikton"). Both movements are closely connected to the following movements, and form, respecti vely, parts 1 and 3 of the symphony. Drawing on Willem Mengelberg's handwritten annotations to his score of the Fifth, Mitchell thus argues that the Adagietto be seen as a song without words, and he uses aspects of its orchestration to connect it with Mahler's new style; along the way, he disputes the relationship usually seen between the Adagietto and the Ruckert setting "Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen." Mitchell also notes the odd chronological paradox that the orchestration of the Fifth Symphony should have caused Mahler such difficulty when he had just created the new and perfect textures of the Ruckert settings.
In short, then, an essential acquisition for all libraries and lovers of Mahler's music.

I then followed the above instructions and tried to install maxima for one of our postdocs. The patch worked fine on a recent CVS version (except for src/homog.lisp, where the indentation changed slighly). The makefile worked fine, except that the file src/dump-clisp.lisp was missing. When compiling maxima I got lots of warnings, but no errors. I used: ------------------------------------ (load "sysdef.lisp") (make:make :maxima :compile t) (lisp:saveinitmem "maxima.mem" :quiet t :init-function 'maxima::macsyma-top-level) ------------------------------------ as dump-clisp.lisp file and create the memory image, and wrote a short shell script to start maxima with 'maxima' on the CL. ---------------------- #!/bin/sh exec /local/clisp/bin/clisp -norc -M /local/maxima/maxima.mem --------------------- After that maxima seems to work, i.e. the header and prompt come as expected: ------------- tcsh 1> maxima Maxima 5.4 Mon Jun 26 12:37:38 CDT 2000 (with enhancements by W.

Licensed under the GNU Public License (see file COPYING) (C1) *** - FUNCALL: the function BYE is undefined 1. Break [1]> USER[2]> --------------- Has anybody tried this and can answer some of these questions: 1. Did I do something wrong during the installation (e.g. is there something missing or screwed up in the dump-clisp.lisp file I came up with)? 2. Are the many warnings I get when compiling maxima normal? 3. Sam warned that the patch is work in progress. How much of maxima is known to work (5% or 95%)? 4. Does it look like there's something wrong with the underlying clisp installation? Background: gcl does not install on our platform, which precludes installing the standard maxima dist "out of the box". So, I found out about clisp, which seems to be smaller and faster than gcl (and is known to work on our platform). Any hints and suggestions greatly appreciated. Nikolas
