A Very New Window in a Very Old Shul
The Museum at Eldridge Street's welcome makeover
There was tension among the Museum at Eldridge Street board members over the Window Problem. In 1944, the original window blew out in a storm. The congregation was in decline by then, after the waves of Eastern European Jewish immigration had ended but before the Lower East Side had become hipster central. (Adam Kirsch reviewed a book about the Eldridge Street Synagogue, whose building, built in 1887 and designated a National Historic Landmark, is now the museum.) The shul couldn't afford a new stained-glass window, so it was replaced with four columns of glass bricks, which resembled the demon-spawn of an '80s shower stall and a AA battery. The original window had apparently been beautiful, but no pictures of it existed. The board wrestled with the question: Should they retain the hideous blocks, as a memory of a sad time in the building's history? Or should they try to recreate what the old window might have looked like? Or, finally, should they embark on something bold, contemporary, and new?
After much arguing, the board went with bold, contemporary, and new. Excellent choice. The new window, designed by artist Kiki Smith and architect Deborah Gans, was unveiled last Wednesday, concluding the decades-long, $18.5 million restoration of the building, to which more than 20,000 donors contributed. The window is a painterly swirl of turquoise and gold: Tiny stars spiraling around a glowing Star of David.
The fact that everything else in the sanctuary looks exactly as it did in the room's heyday only adds to the window's Modernist power. Smith says it is about "rupture and regeneration," themes that work for a building, a neighborhood, and a community that has seen so much of both. It contains glittering little five-pointed stars in addition to the serene, central Star of David, reflecting a synthesis of Old World and New, the notion of being simultaneously Jewish and American. (Five-pointed stars play a big role in American folk art.) In the crescents of the swirling frames, and the geometry of the span of stars, there's also a feeling of Islamic art that fits in with the Moorish design of the building.
The two layers of glass used in the window are laminated with modern silicone rather than old-school lead, allowing the designers to use much larger panes of glass in the design. The window doesn't have the classic stained glass look of small shapes outlined with thick bands of lead; it's much smoother, lighter, and airier, and admits more light, too. The use of acid etching techniques (on the blue glass) and silver stain (for the stars) helped Smith and Gans create an Impressionist-painterly effect.
The completed frame alone weighs more than 4400 pounds. On Youtube, there's a suspenseful video of the six 300-pound glass panels being installed by a crane. Perhaps it has only 79 views because it is a very disappointing film for those of us weaned on action movies; no one drops the window and nothing crashes through it. This is probably better for the Jews, but still. (There is also a brief documentary about the window that ArtsBeat posted yesterday.)
There's something touching to me about the fact that while once upon a time, women had no role in the ritual life of this building, now they've helped to create it. (In addition to Smith and Gans, Linda Ross of Ross Art Studio was involved in the project, casting the Star of David in the window's center.) I'm a huge Kiki Smith fan, not just because she is one of the most important living woman artists and not just because her strange, fairy-tale-inflected, starry work speaks to me, but because she is a generous person who has done major mitzvot for my kids' school. (Look! She designed this awesome tote bag for our PTA fundraiser!)
The museum will be hosting a conversation between Kiki Smith and Deborah Gans on Wednesday, November 17, at 6:30pm.

Amid Kansas City's failure to preserve and redevelop 18th Street and Vine — a historic business district that flourished during segregation and a cradle of the jazz that put Kansas City on world maps — the Mutual Musicians Foundation has kept the beat.
Nearby, the American Jazz Museum requires a $550,000 annual subsidy from the City of Kansas City, Missouri. Ideas about the proper recognition of Buck O'Neil divide the leadership of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. The district's main redevelopment agency can't seem to fill storefronts or rehab the fragile, old homes in its care.
But the foundation is different.
In a former union hall for black musicians, the foundation endures as a social club, after-school program for young music students, performance space and speakeasy. At late-night jam sessions, which begin after 1 a.m. on weekends, musicians cut loose before an audience of jazz lovers, hipsters and dipsomaniacs in a tradition that dates back to 1930. "The history is very, very thick," says Brad Williams, a percussionist who sometimes performs there.
On most blocks within the 18th and Vine District, vibrancy feels either lost or manufactured. That gives an even warmer glow to the neon treble clef above the foundation's front door.
But in the past year, the pink stucco building at 1823 Highland has been visited by tribulations from which it seemed immune.
In December, the foundation's 100-odd members installed a new board of directors. Many of those members were new to the cause. In the weeks leading up to the election, a local singer suggested that the old board had allowed the foundation's legacy to be "pimped." The singer, Lisa Henry, branded Betty Crow, the foundation's secretary and driving force, a racist.
Crow is 80 years old and twice widowed. Her supporters say she is anything but prejudiced. "My God, if she were, I don't think she'd spend the considerable amount of time and money to do what's going on down there," says Mike White, a lawyer and member of the volunteer Kansas City Jazz Ambassadors. Ron McMillan, a community activist, says Crow is "heartbroken" by recent events.
McMillan, who is black, calls Crow a "godsend" and an "angel." Crow made some mistakes, McMillan says. But he's upset that she came to be cast as a villain. "I respect what Miss Betty was doing," McMillan says, "because a lot of our own folk weren't doing it."
Grace Temple, a stone church off 18th and Vine, empties its worshippers into the street. A few doors down, a different sanctuary begins to swell.
It's a Sunday afternoon in late November. Musicians and jazz supporters are gathering at the Mutual Musicians Foundation to affirm their memberships. Just a few months earlier, the number of foundation members in good standing (annual dues: $65) could fit in a small room. But in the course of the afternoon, dozens of performers and music aficionados, as well as those with only a loose connection to Kansas City jazz, will pass under the treble clef.
Wearing a fedora, black suit and polka-dot tie, Ray Reed moves between the lobby and the lounge, a room on the first floor with honey-colored wood paneling. He retrieves a copy of the foundation's bylaws for a man with a question about the proceedings. "This is the bible," Reed says. "Just like at church."
Reed was the doorman at the foundation until Betty Crow fired him in October. Though he's no longer collecting $8 cover charges late at night, Reed remains active in foundation affairs. He's part of a nominating committee that has selected candidates to run for positions on the foundation's board.

ClassicsOnline Home » TARREGA, F.: Guitar Music (Bergstrom) > Review List
Francisco Tárrega, the most influential Spanish virtuoso performer of the nineteenth century, was a charismatic romantic who, with a cigarette in his mouth, mesmerized his audiences for hours with his performances. On this disc, Swedish Royal Academy member Mats Bergström expresses the 'light and shade' of Tárrega's music (sans cigarette!) on a modern instrument based on an 1888 model owned by the composer himself. The Preludes, composed between 1889
and 1909, are particularly well regarded pieces, while the other works include original compositions and imaginative transcriptions.

Click here to see photos of Marilyn Manson through the years.
It's 11 p.m. on a Wednesday night. Is Marilyn Manson ever going to call?
The interview was supposed to be at 8 but one of his wranglers dials me up at 10:15: "He's calling soon, I swear. His interviews are running long. Marilyn loves to talk."
Finally the phone rings and it's Manson, in a playful yet dark mood.
"Wait, were you sleeping?" he asks, chuckling.
This kicks off our late-night chat - he shares that I'm the first woman he's talked to all day, then explains how he likes to conduct interviews: "Normally, I do a monologue and you get to listen."
That may be how it works with others, but there's too much to talk about just to let him ramble on.
In the two years that have passed between "Eat Me, Drink Me" in 2007 and his May release "The High End of Low," Manson has been through quite a bit. He poured his heart out about his failing relationship and eventual divorce from famous burlesque model Dita Von Teese on "Eat Me, Drink Me," yet he says many critics misunderstood that album, calling it happy when Manson considers it far from a salvation.
Still, he insists he's not just "damaged goods." He's not copping to seeing anyone in particular at the moment, but he had been dating actress Evan Rachel Wood until the two split in late 2008. Judging by his sly and deep laughter to a question about his love life, I'm sure he hasn't become celibate. After all, who wouldn't want to date a dark and tortured artist whose favorite pickup line is "I want to set you on fire"?
Manson just rolled through the area last month, co-headlining the Rockstar Mayhem Festival in San Bernardino with Slayer - but he returns to the area this week to play a much more intimate gig at the Grove of Anaheim on Monday night. He says his shows will mix the old with the new, especially seeing as his latest album is the first he's made that he actually likes to listen to. It also has re-teamed him with his band's original bassist Twiggy Ramirez, who left Manson to play with Nine Inch Nails and A Perfect Circle after the two had a spat in 2002.
"I think we got into an argument that should have been resolved," Manson says, "but we were like boyfriend and girlfriend and neither one of us called the next day. And that lasted for six or seven years. This is the record that we always wanted to make, and I think that (the fight) happened for a reason. We needed to step away from it, from each other."
Yet, just because Manson has (sort of) pulled himself together doesn't mean this album is sunshine and roses - far from it, in fact.
He tapped into still-raw emotions he experienced before going through his divorce, which left him slipping into a depression no one could help him out of. His ex-wife's attempt at an intervention, he says, was "almost comedic" - he recalls being tricked into walking into a room filled with friends and a doctor sitting in a circle.
"I told the doctor, 'I know more about psychology than you because I read and you have flip-flops on - and I'm going into the other room and snorting a big line of cocaine.'
"I didn't have the courage or the energy or the (bleeping) initiative to kill myself, which is kind of sad. I always told everyone, 'Listen, stop getting your panties in a bunch because I'm writing on walls and bleeding and shooting up. If I'm going to kill myself, trust me, I'm gonna take a lot of people out with me.' There's not going to be some note ⦠'goodbye cruel world â¦'

NHL 2K9 or NHL 09??
Im thinking of buying one but i dont know which. Please be honest i dont want fan boys telling me which one is better...i want to know what the average person thinks. I like to get achievements, but i would rather have a solid gameplay and not some bad one. Thanks.
Rent both. To be honest, most people who come back to 2K9 have to get fed up with it first. Then they pick up 09, fall in love with the flash, and get sick of it after a while. That's when they return to 2K9 and look past its shortcomings. It's a good game at its core, but man is it ugly.
If you don't think you can look past that, don't bother. 09's EASHL just makes it even harder to go with 2K9. I'm not gonna lie to you, even if you do come back to 2K9, you'd have to be crazy to actually genuinely like the game. Unfortunately, all this year has really is potential.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help, 09's the safer bet if that's what you wanted to know.
"This is considered plagiarism"
nhl 09 kills this game.
I like both
The PS3 commercials are really amazing. What I got from them are it can solve a rubiks cube, and make babies cry. And LEVITATE!!!! (Thanks EltoniaX)
09 is the safer bet. NHL2k8 was pretty good though and you could pick that up at gamestop for $10 I think. Either one will tie you over until the next versions come out.
try out the demos on the marketplace
i like 2k9 way better than 09
Currently playing Oblivion (again =D)
2k9 has more features that appeal to hardcore hockey fans. if you're just a casual fan who wants to have some fun with unrealistic gameplay, poor controls, and next to no sliders with nicer graphics
then get 09. if you want realistic gameplay and can careless about super crisp visuals (i think the graphics are fine with 2k9) then pick up 2k9.

MANILA, Philippines—Actor Cesar Montano on Wednesday branded as "preposterous" the accusation of his estranged wife Sunshine Cruz that he went to her house and raped her on Mother's Day.
In a statement, Montano's legal counsel Joel Ferrer said his client "vehemently denied the charges and prevarications leveled against him as contained in the complaint of Cruz… There was no truth whatsoever that my client abused Cruz whether physical or verbal."
Ferrer added: "The marital rape that Cruz [alluded to was] simply preposterous." The lawyer claimed Cruz invited Montano to join her and three daughters for dinner on May 12, Mother's Day. "They had dinner at the Edsa Shangri-La Hotel. Thereafter, Montano slept and stayed overnight at [Cruz' current residence] and left the place the following day. The two even had exchanges of text messages of good nature, belying any animosity between them several days after the Mother's Day celebration."
Ferrer also clarified the issue on the custody of their children. "It is actually the children's preference that they stay at their family residence at Tivoli Royale," he pointed out. "It is also worth mentioning that Cruz is at liberty to see them anytime whether at the Tivoli residence or in the school where the children go to every day." He said it was Cruz who decided not to visit the girls, "probably due to her hectic work schedule."
The lawyer also said the complaint for violation of RA 9262 that Cruz filed on Tuesday was a "mere rehash of [her] petition for protection order [that she] filed earlier." He stressed that "the application for a temporary protection order (TPO) was denied by the court last week [although] a hearing for the protection order is set on Aug. 15."

It's true that the top four money center banks (JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo (WFC) control 54% of the total U.S. banking assets.
Yet the U.S.-based retail super-regional banks listed below account for more than $2 trillion in assets.

Trade Paperback
In the time of Spanish rule, and for many years afterwards, the town of Sulaco--the luxuriant beauty of the orange gardens bears witness to its antiquity--had never been commercially anything more important than a coasting port with a fairly large local trade in ox-hides and indigo. The clumsy deep-sea galleons of the conquerors that, needing a brisk gale to move at all, would lie becalmed, where your modern ship built on clipper lines forges ahead by the mere flapping of her sails, had been barred out of Sulaco by the prevailing calms of its vast gulf. Some harbours of the earth are made difficult of access by the treachery of sunken rocks and the tempests of their shores. Sulaco had found an inviolable sanctuary from the temptations of a trading world in the solemn hush of the deep Golfo Placido as if within an enormous semi-circular and unroofed temple open to the ocean, with its walls of lofty mountains hung with the mourning draperies of cloud.

Feldberg HotelsBoasting the highest mountain in the Black Forest; Feldberg has 50 kilometres of pistes that are covered with thick snow during the ski season, from cross country and gentle slopes, to black runs for the most experienced of skiers. You'll enjoy snowy mountain peaks that are high above sea level, with the snow park providing kickers, rails, and boxes that are popular with snowboarders. In the summer months, you can take a lift to the top and see as far as the Swiss and Austrian Alps, before hiking down the trails, stopping at one of the wooden lodges for a drink. Things to seeSkiing is the main attraction in Feldberg, with the season lasting around 100 days, and there are artificial snow makers for the rare times when the snowfall isn't thick enough. In addition to different difficulties of downhill skiing, there's also cross country, snowboarding areas, and several ski schools to help you improve your skills. Take the cable cars in the summer months and you'll enjoy the views of lush green forests, calm lakes, and over the sweeping mountain scenery, before hiking down at your own pace and stopping to smell colourful wildflowers. The top of the mountain is also home to many observatories and weather stations, and there's a rich history of this area being used during the cold war, as well as the Bismarck memorial which stands proudly over the mountain. Hotels in FeldbergIf you are staying in the area for winter sports then you'll be pleased to find many Feldberg hotels with ski storage, shuttles to the mountains, and tour and ticket assistance to help you make the most out of your trip. Many hotels offer complimentary breakfasts to get you set for the day, and have restaurants on-site for lunch and dinner. You'll find hotels in the traditional ski lodge style, with wood panelled rooms and cosy accommodation, as well as plenty of extra amenities such as complimentary toiletries, free WiFi, hair dryers, and satellite televisions with movie channels. Where to stayFeldberg is a small village in the shadow of the ski resort, and most people are attracted to the area because of its isolated atmosphere. There's a small selection of hotels in Feldberg that have all the facilities you need, as well as a few restaurants and cafés on the mountainside. Popular in the area are the traditional wooden huts that are conveniently placed along the skiing and hiking trails, with cosy restaurants and well stocked bars, as well as terraces where you can enjoy the view as you relax and catch your breath.How to get to FeldbergEuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg is just an hour away by car, across the border with Switzerland, and there are a large number of flights landing here from across Europe and the Middle East. Take a bus to Basel's main railway station, and then hop on a train to Feldberg-Bärental, before picking up a local bus to Feldberg. Zurich Airport is also a popular arrival point, as it has excellent connections to other major European cities, and this is about a 90 minute drive to Feldberg, with rental cars or private shuttle services available.

China and Taiwan
NRMs in China emerged after the first Opium War (1839–42) and were the result of Western imperialism, difficult economic conditions in southern China owing in part to the opium trade and the war over opium, and the arrival of the first generation of Anglo-American Protestant missionaries. The first and foremost of these new religions was the Taiping Tianguo (the Heavenly Kingdom of the Great Peace), a mixture of Evangelical Christianity, classical quasi-Confucian methods, and various popular traditions. Under its charismatic leader, Hong Xiuquan, the movement developed into a religious state that controlled key provinces in southern and central China. Taiping Tianguo threatened the stability of the Qing state until the movement was finally put down in 1865.
After the signing of the treaties of Tianjin (1858), the Western Christian missionary enterprise was legalized in China, and many forms of Christian denominational messages spread throughout the country. One effect of this cultural and spiritual influence was the development of indigenous Protestant sects and denominations. One of these Christian new religions, the Zhen Yesu Jiaohui (True Jesus Church), evolved as a result of the Pentecostal charismatic revivals (1900–20) in the United States. A second independent church was the Difang Hui (Local Church), founded in the 1930s by Watchman Nee, whose followers later spread the church to the United States.
Some of China's later new religions grew out of forms of sectarian and popular faith that predated the Opium Wars. One such major new body, which evolved out of the White Lotus millenarian tradition and the related tradition of moralistic spirit-writing (bailuan/fuji), or shamanistic sects, is the highly syncretistic Yiguan Dao (I-Kuan Tao; "the Unity Sect"). Another fuji group, the Zhihui Tang (Compassion Sect), began in Taiwan in 1949, and, as in Yiguan Dao, Wangmu Niangniang is its major deity.
The constitution adopted by the People's Republic of China in 1982 contains religious tolerance clauses, and both traditional and newer forms of religiosity are flourishing. House churches—small Evangelical and charismatic Christian bodies reminiscent of the True Jesus Church—have appeared, and the number of those who call themselves Christian has risen markedly. Minjian (popular) traditions have also made a comeback, with older temples being restored and new ones being built. The revival of the minjian traditions is due in part to renewed contact with Taiwan and to the moral and financial support of followers in Taiwan of such mainland cults as those of Mazu, the goddess of the sea; Baosheng Dadi, the god of medicine; Guanyin, the popular goddess of mercy; and Guangong, the martial and judicial god.
The most important NRM to appear in China is the faith in the semimystical powers of qigong (Chinese: "energy work"), the classical tradition of spiritual and physical exercise that is often seen as the basis for the martial arts. In the 1980s and '90s, qigong masters developed followings throughout China by demonstrating their powers. The movement spread to Taiwan, where qigong teachings were integrated into the teachings of syncretistic sects. The most controversial and best-known qigong group is Falun Gong, which was founded by Li Hongzhi in 1992. Drawing on the traditions of Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism, Chinese folklore, and the Western New Age movement, Li taught meditation techniques and ritual exercises designed to provide a means of obtaining spiritual and mental renewal. The group exploded on the scene in 1999 with a dramatic demonstration in Beijing against the Chinese government, which had denounced Falun Gong as a xiejiao (Chinese: "teaching falsehood," or "cult") and has continued to suppress the group in the 21st century.
Taiwan's postwar political and religious experience differs from that of the mainland. Taiwan was taken over by Chinese Nationalists in 1945 and became the refuge for and a bastion of the Nationalist Party (Kuomintang) after 1949. With considerable American help and a reformed Nationalist regime, it developed into an economic success. Its leaders opened the nation to Christian missionaries and to independent Chinese churches, such as the True Jesus Church. The government of Taiwan also supported mainstream traditions such as Buddhism and Daoism and did little, if anything, to stifle the development of the major popular cults (many from Fujian province) that had evolved on the island after 1600. Numerous syncretistic new religions have blossomed in this climate, including socially active, salvationistic Buddhist organizations; charismatic Christian churches, such as the True Jesus Church and the New Testament Church; the moralistic, syncretistic sect Yiguan Dao (I-Kuan Tao); and a postmodern and highly eclectic millenarian sect, the Zhen Dao (True Way).

If you're out there looking for the best diamond for your money, then please contact us and let us know your budget and what you're looking for. We'll sift through thousands of diamonds online and send you suggested stones to choose from that fit your needs the best.
If your diamond is H, I, or J color, then look for a diamond with Medium Blue fluorescence for an added bonus – it can make your stone look slightly whiter. If not, your stone will still look great without it.
If you are buying a diamond with a G or higher color, then find a diamond with either no fluorescence or faint fluorescence. Otherwise, consider a diamond from the Brian Gavin Blue Collection and shoot for an I or J color stone to get the best value.
What is Diamond Fluorescence?
Fluorescence refers to how a diamond responds when subjected to ultra-violet light. UV light is what makes your whites look whiter, your teeth bright white, and your black-light posters glow.
Some diamonds, when they are exposed to UV light, glow different colors. I'm not going to even try to explain why this is. If you're interested, google "diamond fluorescence", and I'm sure you'll find more than enough information about the science behind the glow.
99% of the time, the glow is blue in color, but on rare occasions, the diamonds can glow white, yellow, green, or even red in color.The story, however, doesn't end here.
Strong Blue Fluorescence
After all, if the diamond only glows when exposed to UV light, it should naturally only matter if you are someone who spends their days in dark rooms with black-light lamps (dance clubs, rides at Disney World, etc).
But the fact is, most diamonds exhibiting Strong Blue Fluorescence appear slightly to severely hazy in regular light.
If you've done your homework and googled diamond fluorescence, then you might have read about a certain GIA study claiming that even strong blue fluorescence is almost always entirely imperceptible to the average diamond consumer.
High Fluorescence Means Hazy Diamonds
I can tell you with absolute certainty, that their research is bunk. I have seen tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of diamonds in my career and I can tell you without question the following:
Fluorescence Can Improve Color
The study, though, does make one claim that is correct. Fluorescence will usually improve the appearance of color in the diamond.
So as I suggested in my bottom line recommendation above, if you are buying a diamond with a color H or lower, seek out a diamond with Medium Blue Fluorescence.
I am hesitant to suggest looking for a diamond with Strong Blue Fluorescence, since even lower colors can occasionally look milky and hazy when they have Strong Blue Fluorescence.
Hesitations Regarding Fluorescence
I am also hesitant to suggest Medium Blue Fluorescence when purchasing a diamond with a very high color (G or better), since on rare occasions even a Medium Blue Fluorescent diamond can exhibit milkiness or haziness when the color is exceptionally high.
If, of course, you are buying a diamond in person and not online, then it's in your best interest to specifically ask for a diamond with Strong Blue Fluorescence.
It will be cheaper and since you are there in person, you can see for yourself whether or not the diamond exhibits haziness or milkiness.
Brian Gavin's Blue Line
An interesting alternative if you're buying online is to consider purchasing a diamond from Brian Gavin's "Blue" line. These stones have all been hand-picked by Brian Gavin himself for exhibiting no signs of milkiness or cloudiness.
The fluorescence improves the diamond's appearance by making the stone look more colorless without any negative side effects. The best part is that they're as brilliant as his "Signature" line of Hearts & Arrows perfectly cut diamonds with one exception – they're much cheaper.
We've been eagerly recommending these diamonds since early 2012 and everyone that has followed our advice has been extremely pleased.
Buying Locally vs Online
Otherwise, if you're considering buying locally, despite the savings you might gain by buying a Strong Blue Fluorescent diamond, it will certainly still be cheaper for you to buy your diamond online and purchase either a Medium or lower fluorescence.
Unfortunately, however, even James Allen with their advanced photography, cannot show you how the diamond will look face-up in direct sunlight.
If you have any questions, please post them in the comments below. I will usually respond within 24 hours.
Before you buy a diamond, get personal buying advice from industry veterans. We'll help you get the best diamond for the money.
Should diamonds ever flouresce purple? I have I beautiful 1carat process cut diamond rind with a halo and pave band. My 1carat diamond flouresces clear blue. But the small diamonds in the halo and pave flouresce purple except for a few that flouresce milky blue.
Your Expertise is appreciated.
I am confused about fluorescence. If I intend to buy a G, F, E, D diamond- do I want to get one with strong fluorescence or no fluorescence?
I have a question about fluorescence. I think the price of this diamond is good bc of the fluorescence. Do you think it's ok to get?? Since it's online over, I can't see it before I order.
1.8C Ideal-cut, F-color , and VVS2-clarity, strong fluorescence, GIA $21,140
Which diamond would you choose? A J color with medium blue fluorescence or an I color with no fluorescence? Both are about 1 carat, excellent cut, round diamonds. The I is about 500 bucks more expensive.
DISCLAIMER: Your email address will never be shared with anyone. Period.

Phoenix Suns
Looking at Dan Majerle's future with Suns
Dan Majerle is not the head coach of the Phoenix Suns.
The man Cotton Fitzsimmons told every Suns fan they would regret booing, was hoping to be the next head coach. Just as his coach had drafted him to help change the Suns' fortunes, he wanted to follow in Cotton's footsteps.
Majerle had mixed feelings because no one likes to see their friend get fired, yet there was an NBA job opening with the team he loved the most. A job as an NBA head coach that he knows he is ready to accept.
"Listen," Majerle said, "the fact it wasn't working doesn't mean Alvin can't coach but maybe guys need a different voice. We all know it's a business and change happens."
Dan Majerle, Elston Turner and Lindsey Hunter interviewed for the job of head coach of the Phoenix Suns. Hunter was selected by GM Lance Blanks and president Lon Babby to take over the position in light of Alvin Gentry's departure Friday.
"If I would have been the guy I would have given everything to the job," Majerle told me during a phone conversation Sunday. " If Elston would have been the guy, I would definitely stay on."
A source had told me that the players had been asked by management (I wasn't told who in management) what their thoughts would be on a potential interim coach. The majority of players sided with Majerle. One player even told me, "Dan was my guy," after the news of Hunter's hiring became public.
As this topic came up, Majerle said, "You didn't hear that from me." When I pushed him to let me know if that source was correct he simply said he was glad to have the players' support but was in no way angling for it.
So I asked the question every Suns fan wants to know. I asked if Dan Majerle was going to stay on as an assistant coach. Right now, Majerle doesn't know.
"I think we'll get together and decide what's best for the Suns and go from there," he said.

Peterson is frustrated with management in Minnesota for not showing him support through his legal case for child abuse. Peterson has not participated in any offseason activities so far, but skipping Tuesday's workout will cost him $250,000 in bonuses if he does not attend 90 percent of OTAs and minicamps.
Peterson has three years, $44.25 million left on his contract with Minnesota.

"At the end of the day, I'm a DB,'" Jackson said, per the New York Post. "I think my strengths are cover skills, I got good speed and I got good ball skills.

"It is all in front of him," coach Tom Coughlin said. "We think he can cover. He has done a good job of getting us lined up and then we will see how he plays."

The team acquired Matt Cassel and Tyrod Taylor in the offseason.
In an interview with Jim Rome, Whaley said, "I look at it this way, in this business controversy sells,. The more controversy that you can drum up then the more intereste people are going to be."
"For us we're excited about the future of all three of those guys," Whaley said. "It's going to be a great competition. And we can keep three quarterbacks. So I dismiss that as just someone trying to get something stirred during this down time and lack of media stories for the NFL."
Whaley said all three quarterbacks have an equal shot of winning the starting job.
"I look for him to come in and compete and try to take the job," he said. "Everybody has got an equal footing. It's a clean slate for all four of our quarterbacks. We're not tied to anybody. We just want the best man to start."

Burfict had microfracture knee surgery and initial post-surgery reports said that he could be recovered by the start of training camp.
This week, the team's website said that Burfict's status was "up in the air" and that a return by the start of the season would be a "tight call".

But whether necessary or not, Texans first-rounder Kevin Johnson is making one heck of a first impression on Bill O'Brien. The clornerback opened some eyes at minicamp.
"This is a guy that's a very quick guy," O'Brien said. "He's a tall guy. He's a guy that has really good transition ability. He's got what I call really good recover transition. If he's getting beat, he can stick his foot in the ground and really make up a lot of ground.
"He's a very bright player. If you ask him questions in the morning meeting, he really has obviously studied the night before. He's working out on his own and doing things to help stay up on material that's being installed."
Johnson believes he needs to do the little things right to make a big impact in his rookie year.
"From the training room to the classroom to the film study, everything is just more detailed," he told the team website. "I'm just trying to take it all in and use everything around here and just get better."

The nine-year veteran, who is entering his sixth season in the Windy City, has 95 career starts and led the league in interceptions in 2012. He is even a two-time Pro Bowler. But he spent significant time as the slot corner in minicamp. That's an unsatisfying role for him that he just might be forced to embrace.
Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio prefers his outside corners tall and physical. Jennings is 5-8, 185 pounds. He might still earn an outside role opposite Kyle Fuller, but do achieve that goal he must at the very least outperform free agent pickup Alan Ball, who better fits the ideal description.
If the words of new coach John Fox are any indication, that's unlikely to happen.
"Dimension-wise, he's built like a nickel corner," Fox said. "He's played it before."
Jennings has started all but three games over the last seven years.

The overall number of foodborne infections in 2012 did not change significantly from rates reported between 2006 and 2008, but Campylobacter and Vibrio infections have increased, CDC researchers said Thursday. While children younger than 5 had the highest rate of infection, individuals 65 and older had the highest number of foodborne-related deaths and hospitalizations.

If you are an engineer, you can use the ability called Nadion Inversion which lowers weapon power drain. Otherwise, some people feel that an EPS Console can help reduce weapon power drain (or at least help it recover faster).
Is Starship Batteries any good to take? It increases the duration of consumable batteries. It also says it improves non-consumable batteries but I haven't seen any of those. Where does one get one of them?
Depends on if you use batteries a lot. There were some non-consumable items that were pre-order items when the game was first released, like the Red Matter Capacitor. Also there is a console that comes with the Oberth class C-store ship - Enhanced Plasma Manifold.
Starship Impulse Thrusters says it works only at impulse. Does this mean any time in 'combat' space or only when you're flying at max speed that gets disabled when you enter combat?
I believe this affects any map in space that is NOT sector space. It increases your top speed during combat as well as at "full impulse" I believe.

25 October 2013 17:59 [Source: ICIS news]
LONDON (ICIS)--While it is too early for firm price targets, participants in the European butyl acetate (butac) market are currently expecting November prices to roll over or soften, sources said on Friday.
"We're happy with where we are," one producer said. "We'll tailor our output for the [butac production] unit. I think we'll roll over [prices] into November."
"[Producers will] target a rollover," a distributor said.
However, some participants expect November butac prices to soften because of an expected decrease in the November feedstock propylene contract price (CP).
A Russian producer said: "I think prices will stabilise now. [Customers] think it might go down because of propylene [expectations of the November CP decreasing], but [a butac price decrease] is what customers want. But what I've seen is higher levels. I think prices will stabilise as they are in mid to late November, or maybe go down €20-30/tonne [$28-42/tonne]."

Great place in a great location!
Very clean and well-maintained. It is minutes to Disney, Seaworld, Universal. The amenities are excellent and a short walk away. This condo has all of the basics. You just need to bring food, toiletries, and clothes. The owners are great and always get back to you quickly. I would definitely recommend it!
Great Condo / Great Location
My family, consisting of my son, daughter and granddaughter stayed here from October 11th - 14th, 2014 during our stay in Orlando at Disney and Universal. We were so pleased with our accommodations - it was perfect to come "home" to such a relaxing retreat after the busy days at Disney and Universal. The pool was wonderful and the condo was excellent. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in the Orlando area. Thanks for making this vacation so memorable.

The expression of genes involved in energetic metabolism regulation in muscles is decreased (blue) in Ts3Yah mice (trisomy) and increased (red) in Ms3Yah mice (monosomy) compared to wt mice (disomy). This leads to a decrease in the number of oxidative fibers (colored fibers) and mitochondria (arrows) in the skeletal muscles of trisomic mice, and an increase of oxidative fibers and mitochondria in the skeletal muscles of monosomic mice.
April 21, 2015
The trisomy of human chromosome 21, or Down syndrome, is the most common intellectual disability and leads also to locomotor deficits and altered muscle tone.
To search for genes involved in trisomy 21, the team of Yann Hérault at the IGBMC selected a specific segment of the chromosome 21 (Hspa13-App, normally present in two copies) and created two new mouse models, one with three copies (trisomy), the other with a single copy (monosomy).
This study, published March 24 2015 in PLOS Genetics, reveals that trisomy and monosomy of this region alter the muscle tone in an opposite way and, in skeletal muscles, the regulation of genes involved in energetic metabolism and mitochondrial activity. Researchers demonstrated that the shift in muscle metabolism correlates with a change in mitochondrial proliferation (increased in monosomy, decreased in trisomy).
Thus, this study demonstrated that the studied region (Hspa13-App) intervenes in mitochondrial and metabolic control of skeletal muscles and certainly participates to the hypotonia which is observed in trisomy 21.
The embryonic formation of the cardiac valves allows the blood flow to favor little by little a one-way circulation.
The expression level of the gene klf2a and the formation of the cardiac valves depend on flow oscillations intensity that induce an increase in intracellular Ca+ rates via Trpv4 and Trpp2 ionic channels.
May 12, 2015
The team of Julien Vermot at IGBMC has evidenced how the mechanical forces generated by blood flows activate the embryonic cardiac valves formation. They show that force sensing is mediated by two transient receptor channel, Trpv4 and Trpp2 (or PC2).
Cardiac valves anomalies are among the most frequent human cardiovascular system anomalies and abnormal valve are usually replaced by valve transplantation directly in the patient.
These results lead to a better understanding of the contribution of mechanical forces during cardiac morphogenesis and might contribute to optimize in vitro valves formation.
These results are published on May 7th, 2015 in the Current Biology.
Example of 3D elements revealed in the atomic structure of the full human ribosome (80S). The high resolution (in the Angstrom range, Å, i.e. 0.1 nanometer) allows discrimination between elements interacting or not.
April 22, 2015
The team of Bruno Klaholz, at IGBMC reveals the atomic 3D structure of the full human ribosome and its fine interactions, notably between RNAs and proteins, the human's molecular machinery catalyzing protein biosynthesis.
These outstanding findings provide unprecedented insights into the structure and the dynamics of the full human ribosome and pave the way for new major explorations like analyzing antibiotic side-effects or, in the long term, the treatment of diseases related to ribosome's dysfunction and deregulated protein synthesis, including cancer.
These results are published April 22th, 2015 in Nature.
The protein SET plays a key role in DNA repair and inhibits excessive DNA recombination by controlling chromatin structure through its interaction with the proteins KAP1 and HP1.
March 26, 2015
The team of Evi Soutoglou at IGBMC discovered the protein SET as a novel player in repair of lesions occurring at both strands of DNA. They showed that SET inhibits excessive DNA repair by recombination by controlling chromatin structure through its interaction with the proteins KAP1 and HP1. Cancerous cells where SET is over abundant have decreased capacity to repair DNA lesions and they are sensitive to chemotherapeutic agents, like derivatives of camptothecin.
These results are published March 26, 2015 in Cell Reports.

Era nuestra primera visita a Key Biscayne y la experiencia fue excelente!
Mi esposo y yo nos alojamos durante 7 noches en este condo y el lugar se ajusto perfectamente a nuestras necesidades. Desde el comienzo nuestro plan fue alojarnos en un lugar que quedara cerca del Tennis Center en Cradon Park, teniamos tickets para las cuatro ultimas jornadas del Miami Open y no queriamos perder tiempo estacionanado el automovil cada dia del torneo ... y lo conseguimos! El lugar de Ginny queda a unos 20 minutos de caminata al Tennis Center, por lo tanto no pudimos encontrar un lugar mejor!
El condo tiene todo lo necesario para disfrutar durante una semana y mas, tiene una excelente piscina, estacionamiento casi junto a la puerta del departamento, toallas para el baño y para la playa, uno solo debe preocuparse de comprar las cosas basicas para el baño y la cocina. También cuenta con una excelente conexión a internet! Ademas desde el condo puedes caminar al banco, las tiendas, restaurantes, la iglesia, el parque y por supuesto la playa!!!
Ginny fue siempre muy amable y dispuesta a responder todas nuestras dudas!
Key Biscayne es un lugar maravilloso, recomendado para familias con niños o para quienes buscan un lugar sin mucho bullicio! Lo disfrutamos al maximo y gran parte de ese resultado se debio a nuestra eleccion de alojamiento!
Recomendamos 100% este lugar!!!
This was our third stay with Ginny, and we will continue to come back to this beautiful, relaxing, safe place! The location and amenities (pool, laundry, cable, Internet, beach gear) are wonderful, plus she allows us to bring our dog! Everything is within short walking distance: the beach, the grocery store, fine restaurants, two different pharmacies, a hardware store, etc. Plus, the condo is literally steps away from the fabulous city park. The national park (hiking trails, biking, kayaking, lighthouse, beach, etc.) is less than a five minute drive away. Thanks again, Ginny, for a wonderful stay, and we'll see you again later this year!
What a place! My friends, pup and I lucked out finding this place. We had been victimized by the craigslist scam and needed to find a place quick! It just so happened that Ginny had an apartment that was available within our time frame! Key Biscayne was an island full of surprises and the location of these condos allowed my friends and I, and pup, to take full advantage of it all.
The condos are literally located a walking distance from the beach, park, delicious Cubano food, bar, and grocery. Even more, they're located a short driving distance (10-30 mins) from the dog beach, Bill Baggs State Park, Miami core, and Miami South Beach. I don't think we could've been any happier with our location.
The affordability of this unit shouldn't demise the quality of the space. We had plenty of room and all the necessary tools to make the most of our experience. The kitchen was filled with accessories that allowed my friends and I to make dinners, helping our college friendly budgets. The pool is set behind the building allowing it to be is private and was very cool. We had plenty if beach towels and comforters to support our every need. It was completely stocked for our active lifestyle there.
Ginny was a sweetheart and very enjoyable to interact with. She was professional and yet laid back. She was flexible, in terms of our Key West situation, and allowed us plan our trip thoroughly. She made us all feel comfortable and at home. I would recommend this space to anyone seeking a simple adventure that has no bounds to how simple it may be.
Thanks, Ginny!
Just spent a couple of days here with my parents. They loved it! Ginny was very accommodating and informative regarding activities (even providing a map of the area/ surrounding areas- Bayfront Park and South Beach are not far) and restaurants. Too bad the weather did not cooperate however had there been sunshine Ginny had beach chairs/ cooler/ ice packs and beach towels (alot of linen available) ready for us! It was nice having a real fridge as oppose to mini ones as well. Winn Dixie was less than 15 minutes away by foot and we were able to stock up on breakfast items/ keep leftovers, etc. There are restaurants in the area however you should do your research ahead of time if your are on a budget, some places are costly. If you are into fast food like Burger King/ Mc Donalds etc, I have to say I did not run into any so really do your research.The park being next door provided a nice way to work off some of the food we stuffed ourselves with! We did not do much cooking, except a light breakfast, but there is a stove, microwave and coffee pot. I would update the kitchen utensils and pans but this is a vacation so eat out! My parents took advantage of everything including the heated pool a couple of hours before check out. We also had our own parking space which was nice. There is also a CVS nearby and a gas station up the road. Give yourself some time to get use to the area and beware of the golfcarts. The residents and some vacationers are quite fond of them and scoot around often and quickly. The golf carts facilitate parking, especially at Winn Dixie and other neighboring plazas. There are alot of children so be vigilante and adhere to the speed limits. Overall, it was a nice trip for us and we enjoyed exploring Key Biscayne. Thanks again to Ginny for helping us out!
Had such a wonderful time! Ginny is a sweetheart and around when you need her and not when you don't! The beach is walking distance and condo is right near the community park. We loved it!
What a lovely place to spend a wonderful holiday! The location of the condos (we spent a total of 5 weeks in 2 of them this year) is just perfect - all stores and a supermarket, as well as nice restaurants are in easy walking distance, to say nothing of the beach access (next to the Ritz-Carlton!). Our darling host, Ginny, was extremely helpful and always present. But what we appreciated most was the wonderful heated pool - our first destination in the morning and last in the evening. I haven't felt as good in at least 15 years…
We would certainly recommend this to our friends, and hope to return next year!
