Lady Oscar is a 1979 English-language French-Japanese romantic drama film, based on the manga The Rose of Versailles by Riyoko Ikeda. The film was written and directed by Jacques Demy, with music composed by his regular collaborator Michel Legrand. Lady Oscar was filmed on location in France.[1]
Oscar Françoise de Jarjayes (Catriona MacColl) is a young woman whose father, a career military man, wanted a boy. After she was born her father took to dressing Oscar in boy's clothes and raising her as a man. Privately Oscar acknowledges her feminine side, she dresses as a man and gains an honored position as a guard of Marie Antoinette (Christina Bohm). In her youth, Oscar is in love with Andre (Barry Stokes), the son of the family's housekeeper. Years later, when the French Revolution begins, Oscar and Andre's paths cross for the first time in years. With the assault on the Bastille, Oscar and Andre find themselves fighting on opposite sides of the revolution.

The major sponsor of the film was Shiseido, a cosmetics company, and Catriona McColl promoted a red lipstick for the spring cosmetic line that year.[2] Frederik L. Schodt translated the entire manga series into English as a reference for the producers of this film, but gave the only copy of the translation to them and it was lost.[3]
The film was not a commercial success,[4] and MacColl's portrayal of Oscar, in particular, was criticised, it was felt by some critics that she was not androgynous enough to play Oscar.[5]

2. Should I go up the Chessapeak or go outside? Mid May is the timeline.
3. Suggested stopping points to fuel up maybe take a break maybe not?
4. Anything else????
Thank you
1) That depends on how quickly you want to do this "delivery", of course...
2) Same answer as #1... Outside is far quicker, and saves you from having go go around Cape May Point on your way back down the Delaware... However, as you say you've never done a trip of this length before, and the run outside will involve an overnight off a desolate coast with no real bail-out options, it may not be the wisest idea to attempt that the first time out on a boat that is brand new to you...
3) If you do elect to go outside, choose your weather wisely, that is no place to be if an onshore blow develops... Likewise the Jersey coast... Sounds like you have no prior experience running inlets, avoid doing that run with any significant swell running. Chances are you'll wind up in Cape May either way, a very nice stop... From there I'd recommend Barnegat, then up to NY harbor...(I detest Atlantic City, and Manasquan is distinctly unaccommodating to sailboats) Again, going out around Montauk will involve another overnight, crossing 3 shipping lanes, so with your level of experience you'll probably be better off going up thru the Sound. Besides, the trip thru NY harbor is always a thrill, never gets old... Play the tides/currents right on the Sound, and it's not all that much longer than the run offshore...
Get yourself a copy of Eldridge, good luck, and enjoy...

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
Fly Gwinnett Forward has indicated it wants to hear all sides and facts about the issue of expanding Brisco Field. I would like to cite some facts, figures, and concerns.FGF cites Greenville-Spartenburg Airport in South Carolina and Westchester County Airport in New York as examples of success stories. Let's take a look at these two airports that expanded to commercial facilities and their growth after 50 and 60 years of "progress." Over 50 years, Greenville has extended the runway to 11,000 feet, added 1,500 parking spaces, expanded the concourse and added rental car space. Ten additional acres have been purchased for expansion. Highways in the area have been widened with overpasses to accommodate traffic. In 2010, the airport carried 1,268,202 passengers served by 16 airlines and 828 employees. Westchester County had similar growth over a 60 year period. It now serves 1.9 million passengers with seven airlines and 1,300 employees. If the above airport examples cited by Fly Gwinnett Forward were emulated at Briscoe Field, this "commercial" expansion would affect every resident of Gwinnett, not just those who live nearby. We cannot just look at our immediate concerns but where we want to be 50 years from now and beyond. This expansion could change Gwinnett forever. Let's look at development and job expansion that would be far less intrusive and invasive to our way of life. — Russell Everson Dacula

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Brawn and his partner, Brains, terrorized Tower City and fought against its former hero, Captain Dynamo several times. In time, the duo eventually left Tower City, looking for other places to do their work. Eventually, while robbing a bank, Brains and Brawn came against the might of the Noble Family. In the battle, Brains was injured. Maddie Warner, the mentor of Dynamo 5, realized that Brains and Brawn would return to Tower City until Brains was healed. Maddie took that opportunity to send two members of Dynamo 5, Scrap and Slingshot, to search and apprehend the criminal duo. They were able to find Brains and Brawn and almost defeated them, with some assistance from Scatterbrain, but they managed to escape. Before leaving Tower City, Brains and Brawn were approached by Bonechill and Voltage to join their ranks.

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
Sure, We Are Scientists want you to dance, albeit in a school-function kind of way (the band often covers "Be My Baby" live); they also share the adolescent fixations/frustrations of '90s punk. But it's more accurate to say they're the kingpins of the likably square subgenre launched by Weezer's "Buddy Holly" video that never actually existed. Not emo, exactly—something more respectful toward women, even if it puts women on the same pedestal. Robert Christgau once termed Thunderbirds Are Now! makers of "high-anxiety pop," and you could call it that: WAS singer Keith Murray (the pretty one) always sounds like he's on the edge of total endocrinal implosion, a fun trait when his band was a power trio filtering disco through fuzz-laced garage.But on their second album, the band's lost a crucial piece of the puzzle: Slyly winking drummer Michael Tapper (prettier) helped the boys craft a likable image via videos milking jokes from homoeroticism that avoided being annoying and frat-friendly in a you're-so-gay-you-like-Coldplay way. Simple as the formula was, WAS were the rare radio-eyed current band to offer three distinct personalities. But now Tapper's gone, and the band's sense of humor has gone with him: Whereas 2006's playfully angst-ridden With Love and Squalor had a humane composure ("Instead of throwing up your hands/Why don't you tell me what you're trying to tell me"), the new Brain Thrust Mastery finds Murray obsessed with being "the problem here." The music is even more defensive about the rut they're stuck in, and fires back in every style the now-duo can think of, from actual disco to Jimmy Eat World; the slower tunes are longer on texture than hooks. Which is no problem, but man, the hints of what could've been: The gorgeous "After Hours" deserves to be the "Closing Time" of the 'aughts, and "Impatience" easily bests R.E.M.'s recent retro moves. Not a dreadful record, but they hereby forfeit their membership in the high-anxiety club, with nowhere to go but emo.

A federal district court granted summary judgment in favor of a reinsurer who had been sued by a ceding company for failure to pay under two facultative reinsurance certificates that reinsured two excess liability policies from the 1980s. The certificates required the ceding insurer to promptly notify the reinsurer of "any event or development" that might result in a claim against the reinsurer. The reinsurer had not been provided with notice of millions of dollars worth of asbestos claims that had developed over several decades. The only correspondence between the ceding insurer and the reinsurer reflected a small potential exposure in the early 1980s that did not indicate the possibility that involvement of the certificates might follow. In the early 2000s, the insured was facing tens of thousands of asbestos bodily injury claims, and the ceding insurer engaged in lengthy and complex settlement negotiations with its insured without providing notice to the reinsurer. Ruling in the reinsurer's favor, the court looked to the purpose of the notice provision – to provide the reinsurer with an opportunity to associate in the control and settlement of claims, as well as to ensure that the reinsurer has sufficient information at its disposal to determine whether to avail itself of that opportunity. The court also concluded that the ceding insurer's failure to provide notice to the reinsurer was a breach of its duty of utmost good faith. Granite State Insurance Co. v. Clearwater Insurance Co., Case No. 09-10607 (USDC S.D.N.Y Mar. 31, 2014).

Setting forth a distinctly new narrative, it reflects on art in the United States with approximately 650 works by some 400 artists, spanning the period from circa 1900 to the present. Examined here are the themes, ideas, beliefs, visions, and passions that have preoccupied and galvanised American artists

Light, Paper, Process - Reinventing Photography
Exhibition, The Getty Center, Los Angeles, California, until 18 October
At a time when digital technologies offer increasingly sophisticated options for producing, storing, and disseminating images, a number of artists have turned their attention to exploring the essence of photography, distilling it to its basic components of lightsensitive emulsions and chemical development. These artists may use hand-coated or expired papers, archival negatives, or custom-built cameras, or they may eschew the use of a camera or film altogether. All of them revel in materials and process, employing darkroom techniques that shift our understanding of photography away from a medium that merely records the world.

Anselm Kiefer, Paintings
Exhibition, White Cube, São Paulo, Brazil, until 20 June
The paintings in this exhibition explore themes of history, politics, landscape, and in particular, the vision of The Morgenthau Plan. Proposed in 1944 by the US, the plan was conceived to transform post-war Germany into a pre industrial, agricultural nation in order to limit its ability to wage war. A polarising political act that in the artist's words "ignored the complexity of things", it sought to divide Germany into two independent states, annexing or dismantling all centres of industry. Here, Kiefer depicts rural landscapes, with flowers blooming through destruction and devastation. Echoing both German Romantic painting and the turbulent landscapes of Van Gogh, huge, dark expanses of plant life dominate the composition.

Takis: The Fourth Dimension
Exhibition, The Menil Collection, Houston, Texas, until 26 July
Born in Athens in 1925, Takis is renowned for his explorations of the gap between art and science. Since the mid-1950s he has continually pushed into new aesthetic territories, creating three-dimensional works of art that incorporate invisible energies as a fourth element. Takis, who describes himself as an 'instinctive scientist', employs powerful forces to generate the compositions, movements, and musical sounds of his static and kinetic works. From the beginning, whether in street-art fireworks, attempts to use magnetism to suspend a man in space in advance of cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin's historic flight, or cofounding the Art Workers Coalition, an organisation dedicated to giving living artists a voice in museums, he has regarded the energies of political and social spheres as part of his repertoire.

Manifesto: Beyond the New
A search for ideals in Design
"Design is flourishing. The number of design events is growing every year. But the field has not benefited. What most events have in common are the presentations of a depressing cornucopia of pointless products, commercial hype around presumed innovations, and empty rhetoric. As a mere commercial hype, the 'new' no longer equals real innovation, and might even be rephrased as 'the illusion of the new'. Design has become a goal instead of a means to an end."

Mauri and Pasolini to the rescue **read full article in DAMNº50**
Fabio Mauri emerged as an artist in the late-1950s, developing the ideas for his work in the context of television and cinema, with the projected image and the screen becoming central motifs that defined his oeuvre. Connecting themes and ideas of the past to the present, his work injects within itself a notion of ethical responsibility that causes the spectator to critically examine his experience of 'the real'. As a close friend of Pasolini's since childhood, the two were highly active in Italy's avant-garde. The Venice Biennale is now&nbs..

Installed in a rundown corner shop in Detroit, Christopher Schanck's studio thrives with community activity. This is where his furniture pieces are made, slowly and steadily, by the unskilled hands of his neighbours. The designer does not play by any of the existing rules of design, as rather than wanting his furniture to be pretty and smart, he would rather it have an impact akin to being kicked in the gut. With the art world currently in praise of him, the signs are that he has succeeded.

There is unlikely anyone who has not heard of Le Corbusier, and it is nearly as unlikely that there's someone with no opinion on his work. Most comments will relate to his architecture, of which he has left a substantial legacy. But, in fact, as the current show at the Centre Pompidou elucidates, Le Corbusier was a man of many talents. Not only did he draw and paint, as well as sculpt, on a constant basis, but his artworks provided the impetus for his architecture.

Joy Forever
An exemplary canoe **read full article in DAMNº50**
David Trubridge takes an irregular approach to design, albeit highly sincere and effective. The basis of his work stems from a love of the sea, which in turn leads him to appreciate – nay, adore – vessels such as canoes and windsurfers, which then naturally sees him employing these items, either literally or figuratively, in the design projects he undertakes.

Suresh Krishnamurthy
THURSDAY turned out to a big day with major corporate developments swamping the market. There was a steady flow of news through out the day, much of which turned out to be positive.
Traders grappled with major developments in the form of the Supreme Court ruling in favour of cigarette companies and Holcim's proposal to acquire majority stake in ACC and Ambuja Cement Eastern.
They also had to deal with the anticipated announcement of the swap ratio for IDBI's merger with IDBI Bank, buyback of shares by GlaxoSmithKline Consumer and Reliance Industries and the announcement of financial performance by major companies such as Gujarat Ambuja, Tata Steel, Satyam Computer and IPCL.
The flow of positive news, however, was not enough to completely counter the negative sentiment that engulfed the markets.
Even as Sensex bounced back from a level below 6,100 to end above 6,200 thanks mainly to the strong pullback by ITC, majority of the traded stocks recorded losses.
In A-group, 145 out of the total 205 stocks registered declines. Even in Sensex, 19 of the 30 stocks ended in negative territory.
Major losers among the A-group stocks include Maharashtra Seamless, Wockhardt, Indo Rama Synthetics and Bharti Televentures.
Amongst indices, Nifty Junior was the major loser. Stocks such as Wockhardt, Biocon, Patni Computer Systems and a host of banking sector stocks pulled down this index.
A number of small-cap stocks also logged large declines with a number of stocks that are part of S group at BSE losing 10 per cent of their value.
Prominent gainers include Avaya Global, ITC Hotel and Bajaj Hindustan. These stocks gained more than 10 per cent.
Cigarette stocks surge: The Apex court's ruling that states had no right to levy luxury taxes came as a shot in the arm for cigarette companies.
Stocks of ITC, VST Industries, Godfrey Phillips and GTC Industries shot up in value. ITC ended the day with a gain of nearly 11 per cent. The ruling is expected to help cigarette companies in pricing their products more effectively.
Cement stocks turn weak: Stocks affected by the takeover deal such as ACC, Ambuja Cement Eastern and Gujarat Ambuja understandably plummeted after the announcement of the arrangement between Gujarat Ambuja and Holcim.
This, however, pulled down a host of cement sector stocks such as India Cement, Prism Cements and Madras Cements. The stock of UltraTech Cement, however, bucked the trend to register strong gains.
Bank stocks slump: Prominent losers on Thursday included a number of stocks from the domain of banking. Stocks such as Andhra Bank, Allahabad Bank, Canara Bank and Syndicate Bank suffered losses. The stocks of IDBI Bank and IDBI, however, firmed up. The share swap ratio anticipated through the day was, however, announced only after trading hours.
News and stocks: The stock of Ruchi Soya surged ahead by 12 per cent.
Reports that the Bunge group may be interested in acquiring a stake may be behind the price spurt. The company has denied that it is in talks for selling a strategic stake.
The price of the stock of DPIL rose by 5 per cent in the wake of the company's announcement that it is considering a scheme of arrangement.
The stock of Diamond Cable flared up by 10 per cent in value. The company announced that it has bagged an order for Rs 31 crore from Gujarat Electricity Board.
The stock of Centurion Bank declined by 3.6 per cent. The company has proposed to raise resources to the tune of Rs 600 crore that may involve further expansion of its equity capital.

Courthouse shooting survivor out of hospital
Asst. Cebu City Prosecutor Ma. Theresa C. Casiño was discharged from the hospital last Saturday afternoon.
Her doctors at Chong Hua Hospital gave her a clean bill of health 19 days after she was shot by Canadian expatriate John Pope inside the Cebu City Palace of Justice.
The slug that got embedded near an artery at the back of her head was taken out in a three-hour surgery last Monday.
"Praise God. We are finally home. Thank you very much for your support and prayers. We are forever grateful. God is great all the time," said the 40-year-old Casiño in her text message to her close friend, Asst. City Prosecutor Liceria Lofranco-Rabillas.
Rabillas said Casiño, however, needs to go back to the hospital once in a while for therapy.
"The left part of her body is weak. Her left eye could not see while the vision on her right eye is fragmented. While talking to her, she said she could only see some parts of my face," Rabillas told Cebu Daily News.
Other than vision problem, Rabillas said all other faculties of Casiño's body are normal.
"Her (Casiño) doctors said her vision problem would just heal naturally," she said.
Rabillas was very happy to see her friend go home.
"I'm glad she's back home. She's just waiting for the right time to go back to work. She will definitely return to the prosecution service. There's no question about that," she said.
Casiño, who has been a prosecutor for about three years, was shot on the nape at close range by Pope while she was on her way for a hearing at the Municipal Trial Court in Cities (MTCC) Branch 1 last Jan. 22.
The prosecutor was brought to the hospital where she was closely monitored at the Intensive Care Unit.
Casiño's doctors later decided to remove the slug since it can cause damage in the long run.
She was the only survivor in the Jan. 22 shooting in the Palace of Justice.
Lawyer Jubian Achas and Dr. Rene Rafols died after they were shot on the head by Pope inside the MTCC Branch 6 courtroom.
Pope was shot by a policeman although the investigation revealed that the Canadian shot himself on the head after he was cornered by police near the Cebu City Prosecutors' Office.

The people should be aware of all the welfare schemes being implemented by the government for the weaker sections so that they could enjoy the benefits of the same, said A. Suganthi, Collector.
Speaking at a mass contact programme held at Rayavaram village in Tirumayam taluk on Wednesday, Ms. Suganthi said that mass contact programmes are conducted not only to solve the grievances of the local people but also to create awareness among the villagers on the various ongoing welfare schemes. The people should take advantage of such programmes, she said.
The Collector distributed welfare assistance to the tune of Rs. 5.42 lakh under various government schemes to the beneficiaries.
A total of 104 petitions were received from the people in connection with the mass contact programme, of which 76 petitions were taken for consideration and the rest were rejected. While 29 petitions pertained to patta transfer, 26 pertained to removal encroachments, three for construction of overhead water tanks, 26 seeking education loans, 35 for old age pension and the rest seeking other facilities. All the petitions will be considered by the officials and the action taken will be informed to the people.
Two petitions were received seeking transport facilities. The Collector directed the authorities to extend the Aranthangi – Rayavaram bus to Kadiapatti and operate it twice a day from May 5. The other petition was regarding extension of the Pudukottai – Nallipatti bus to Kadiapatti via Nallipattivilakku, valayapatti, Kayampatti, Andipatti, Sengeerai etc. As it was a new route, the Transport Department will explore the feasibility of the proposed route and take appropriate action.
The Collector on the occasion inaugurated special veterinary medical camp. A team of veterinary surgeons treated as many 2,283 cattle during the camp.
Ms. Suganthi also inaugurated a special exhibition brought out by the State Information and Public Relations Department. Various government departments, including agriculture, agricultural engineering, health, Information and Public Relations had displayed charts and pictures explaining in detail various schemes of the government.
J. Raghavan, District Revenue Officer, C. Muthusamy, Chairman, District Panchayat, Pon Ramalingam, chairman, Tirumayam panchayat union, and others spoke.

Good addition to my regimen, but...
By rickt
from Atlanta, GA
About Me Brand Buyer
I really like the Perricone Firming Facial toner, and use it twice daily.The Perricone pumps, in general, are too "stiff" when using - more often than not I dispense more product than I would like because of the way the pumps stick when pressing (very slowly, I might add). That is especially true for me with this product. No matter how careful I am, I always end up with nearly a full pump squirting off into some random direction when I apply it to my cotton ball.
Excellent toner with other DMAE products
By Bobo Valentino
from San Diego! CA
After using the Citrus cleanser, this toner moisturizes my skin before I used other DMAE products to tighten my skin. Absolutely great experience! Skin looks so refreshed over night.

I'm on my third bottle of this toner
By Karen the actress
from Chicago, IL
I use this toner morning and night to clean the residue and oil off my skin. I like the gentle feeling of it, not harsh or drying. It smells nice and leaves a bright look to my skin. The only thing I don't like is when I push down on the dispenser, it shoots out too hard. To remedy this problem, I wrap my cotton pad close to the spout so I don't waste any.

I really do notice a firming affect when using this toner. If I could only get one product this would be the one.

Competitive Statement: Boris Continuum Complete vs. Red Giant Products
Boris Continuum Complete is a collection of over 200 VFX filters for video editing and compositing software applications, with full support for Adobe, Avid, Apple, and Sony platforms. The MSRP starts at $995.
Red Giant Software offers four separate VFX filter suites - Magic Bullet Suite, Trapcode Suite, Keying Suite, and Effects Suite - with MSRPs ranging from $799 to $899 per suite for a combined price of around $3,400. A discounted bundle containing all four suites is not currently offered. All Red Giant filters support Adobe After Effects; support for other video editing software applications varies.
While there is crossover between the filters offered by BCC and Red Giant Software, a Red Giant customer must rely on third-party tools to obtain essential BCC functionality such as extrusions, glows, and motion tracking...
Competitive Analysis: Boris Continuum Complete vs. GenArts Sapphire
Since its inception, Boris Continuum Complete (BCC) was designed to complement NLE systems such as Avid Media Composer, Apple Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere Pro by bringing high-quality compositing and effects creation to the editor's timeline. Along with eye-candy and organic looks, BCC packs core technologies such as Optical Flow, Motion Tracking, 3D Extrusion, and OpenGL.
Compositing applications such as Adobe After Effects benefit from BCC's 3D Extrusion features, integration with After Effects' Camera and Lighting, and import of AE masks for use with extruded shapes and bevel profiles. In addition, BCC's built-in Beat Reactor technology, which is available in most BCC filters running in the After Effects host environment, is another a major feature that is unavailable in any Sapphire filter effect.
Transferring Avid or Final Cut Pro Program Sequences to After Effects
Editors using Apple Final Cut Pro or Avid Media Composer frequently turn to Adobe After Effects for a wide range of tasks, including basic format conversion, advanced compositing, and even complete desktop finishing. After Effects features a robust plug-in architecture with a wide range of native and third-party filter options. As a resolution-independent application, it is also particularly conducive to working with larger-than-HD sized camera files, such as RED Digital Cinema's RECODE raw (.r3d) format. For these and other reasons, editors often perform basic editing in FCP or Media Composer, but reserve After Effects for the finishing touches, such as keying, visual effects, and color correction with custom looks...
Moving Projects or Sequences between Avid and FCP
Oliver Peters, an award-winning editor and frequent contributor to numerous industry trade publications, recently authored a white paper regarding moving projects or sequences between different nonlinear edit applications. The white paper discusses Boris Transfer FCP, a set of import and export plug-ins for Apple Final Cut Pro, which enables timeline interchange between Final Cut Pro and Avid editing and finishing systems. Oliver noted Boris Transfer FCP's ability to transfer a wide range of timeline effects, including Boris Continuum Complete filters, which are correctly translated between Final Cut Pro and Avid Media Composer / NewsCutter / Symphony / DS. He also noted Boris Transfer FCP's ability to move sequences between systems, regardless of whether the media was originally acquired from videotape or tapeless cameras.
OpenGL Accelerated Effects and Graphics in Boris FX Products
Graphics display hardware is widely recognized for visual effects creation. Despite many limitations and technical challenges confronting developers, the raw image processing power of modern GPU engines is unmatched by any multiprocessing, general-purpose computer system.
The engineering crew at Boris FX was one of the first in the video industry to recognize the power of modern GPU engines and harness it to create the most stunning visual effects for post-production professionals.
Real-Time Chroma Keying on the GPU
A method is presented to efficiently compute a Chroma Key effect utilizing the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) available in most modern computers. At the time of this writing, the method is implemented in the BCC Chromakey Studio plug-in for Apple Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express, and Motion under Apple's FxPlug plug-in format. The process consists of four separate image-processing algorithms, a chroma key matte computation, a spill suppressor, a matte choker, and a light wrap filter. Rather than executing the four filters sequentially, as would be appropriate on the CPU, the method reorganizes the flow of execution to maximize parallel processing and memory throughput, thereby taking full advantage of the parallel nature of GPU hardware. The method optimizes GPU throughput by performing image-processing tasks in parallel and minimizing texture lookup and global memory access.

Baseball season ended early this year in Minnesota, which is unfortunate because September is a month made for the game. This sentiment will probably rankle Vikings fans, for whom the crispness of autumn begets crockpots of chili and fits of feverish anticipation every Sunday. But sorry, no. The song of autumn is composed of the crunch of leaves and the crack of bats, the squeals of Pee-Wee teams and the mad screams of Major League playoff hunts. The grunts of linemen and the groans of concussed wide receivers can wait till winter. Fall belongs to baseball.
Is that greedy? Maybe. Baseball's season lasts more than half the year, after all. Ball players clock in during spring training, evolve into the "Boys of Summer" and, with a little luck, wind up with nicknames like "Mr. November." That leaves precious little calendar for other sports. But sorry. No. The horsehide, the ash, the velvety sward — the game's key components, as listed by the baseball writer Red Smith — these are autumnal things. Particularly in their smells, as autumn is the most fragrant of seasons, and therefore the most memorable. Perhaps that's why my favorite baseball memories are all set in September.
Then again, that autumnal fragrance is really the natural world shrugging off its mortal coil and slouching toward death and decay, which is perhaps a more apt metaphor for this forgettable 2011 Twins season. It was, at every level, an epic catastrophe. We fervent fans have yet to decide whether it was a tragedy or a comedy, but the events of this week alone suggest something close to a Three Stooges routine: Our star player, having struggled all year with viral infections, bone bruises and "leg weakness," was just done in for the season by a bout of pneumonia. Even more accursed is another former MVP who returned from 10 months of concussion recovery only to see his symptoms return; meanwhile he's undergone unrelated neck, ankle, and knee surgeries. One veteran outfielder was doing well until a foot injury ended his season; our new Japanese shortstop broke a leg early on and strained an oblique muscle late (although he'd played so poorly in between that the second injury may be an excuse just to keep him off the field); our second baseman has spent the last two months too hurt to play, as has our best pitcher; and our lone All-Star, Michael Cuddyer, took a late-season pitch off the wrist and hasn't been the same since. The leftovers that have taken the field amidst this devastation are an unqualified jumble of rookies and journeymen, none of whose names you'll find on any fan's jersey. One of whom was carted off to HCMC this weekend after taking a fastball to the head.
So it's been a poor year to be a Twins fan. But it's been a great year to prove yourself a Twins fan, as the team has never been less lovable than they are now. Never has the team needed Minnesotans to disprove their reputation a bandwagon sports fans more than it does today. Some have answered the call, drawn still by the moth-lights of Target Field. Others have flipped the channel. And a few of us have found other baseball teams to cheer on.
My other favorite team to root-root-root for: The Northeast Skeeters, of the Twin Cities Men's Adult Baseball League, a fairly rag-tag assemblage of men whose big league dreams ended somewhere in high school and continue to play for a love of the game, as cheesy as that sounds. Through the course of five seasons, the Skeeters have gelled into one of the league's finest teams against even their own modest expectations. I know this to be true because their third baseman is none other than your humble correspondent, who cherishes the persistent scab on his left knee — the result of myriad ugly slides and unacrobatic dives to his right —more than any other summer souvenir.
Our season ended early too. Despite dealing the dreaded Cubs their first defeat in two years during the regular season, we fell to that very team in the second round of the playoffs, failing for the third straight year to advance to the league finals. That's a shame — not because we deserved to win the championship, but because now I'll have to wait nine months to play another baseball game, and will likely be counting the weeks. Baseball can be agonizing to play — long stretches of boredom punctuated by unannounced spasms of action, especially over there at third base — but it's worse to be unable to play, and to spend an entire off-season dreaming of the plays you didn't make, and the ones you did, and the ones you might next year.
The young author Chad Harbach sums up the game better than I ever could in his new novel, "The Art of Fielding:" "[It's] an apparently pointless affair, undertaken by people with a special aptitude, which sidestepped attempts to paraphrase its value yet somehow seemed to communicate something true or even crucial about the Human Condition…. being, basically, that we're alive and have access to beauty, can even erratically create it, but will someday be dead and will not."
So here's to next season. May it be lively and beautiful.

Relaxation of NDRC rules has immediate impact, but uncertainty remains if there is only ever one anointed Chinese bidder
By Jin Xiong, Paul Schroder and Edward Tudor
Developments in China's Tsinghua Unigroup's bid for HKSE-listed RDA Microelectronics show the immediate impact of December's relaxation of outbound investment regulations in China. However, uncertainty remains around the application of the 'one Chinese bidder' policy.
Tsinghua Unigroup entered into a merger agreement with semiconductor producer RDA for $18.50 (£11.16) per American depository share in November 2013. The deal was struck between the parties despite the fact that the powerful National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) had already granted preliminary approval to rival state-owned bidder Shanghai Pudong Science and Technology Investment (SPSTI) for its September offer of $15.50 per RDA American depository share.
Reports from China at the time suggested that NDRC was unlikely to grant preliminary approval to Tsinghua even though Tsinghua expressed confidence it would secure NDRC approval and committed to pay RDA a $70m termination fee if it could not. However, on 2 December, in a move designed to reduce and decentralise approval powers, the Chinese government announced that only investments over $1bn or involving sensitive countries, regions or industries will require NDRC approval. Investments valued between $300m and $1bn will still need to file with NDRC and obtain a filing receipt…

AOL Travel Editor's Review
This historical cafe, which originally opened in 1873, will give you the feeling of "old Vienna;" where composers scribbled for hours in restaurants instead of their homes and met with their contemporaries to debate the art and politics of the times. During the day, you drink some of the finest coffee in Austria here, and at night, you'll find it open to accommodate post-ball guests and insomniac creative-types. If you're looking for beer, they serve Czech Budweiser here, among others. Find the food here traditional and hearty, often graced with live music—not too loud.

(a) Carcasses of poultry contaminated by volatile oils, paints, poisons, gases, scald vat water in the air sac system, or other substances which render the carcasses adulterated shall be condemned. Any organ or other part of a carcass which has been accidentally multilated in the course of processing shall be condemned, and if the whole carcass is affected, the whole carcass shall be condemned.
(1) Any carcass of poultry accidentally contaminated during slaughter with digestive tract contents shall not be condemned if promptly reprocessed under the supervision of an inspector and thereafter found not to be adulterated. Contaminated surfaces that are cut shall be removed only by trimming. Contaminated inner surfaces that are not cut may be cleaned by trimming alone, or at an approved reprocessing station away from the main processing line, by any method that will remove the contamination, such as vacuuming, washing, and trimming, singly or in combination. All visible specks of contamination must be removed, and if the inner surfaces are reprocessed other than soley by trimming, all surfaces of the carcass shall be treated with chlorinated water containing 20 ppm available chlorine.
(2) An area will be designated as an approved reprocessing station only if the Administrator determines that reprocessing operations can be conducted in that area in accordance with all of the requirements of this part, and that the reprocessing methods to be utilized are capable of removing all visible specks of contamination on the inner surface of a carcass. Requests for such approval shall be submitted to the inspector in charge and shall describe the proposed area, proposed methods of reprocessing, and proposed equipment to be utilized. Whenever the Administrator finds that reprocessing operations cannot be conducted in such area in accordance with all of the requirements of this part or that the reprocessing methods utilized are not capable of removing all visible specks of contamination on the inner surface of a carcass, he may withdraw approval of such area, effective upon oral or written notification, whichever is earlier, to the operator of the establishment. In the event of oral notification, a written confirmation thereof shall be given to the operator as promptly as circumstances permit. The notification shall specify the reasons for such withdrawal and shall afford the operator of the establishment an opportunity to present his views. In any instance where there is a conflict as to the facts, a hearing shall be held to resolve such conflict.

Prominent citizens of Dakshina Kannada list out their demands for new policymakers
'Adequate funds needed to improve condition of national highways in Mangalore region'
'The new government should take care of the basic needs of the common man'
MANGALORE: People in Dakshina Kannada Lok Sabha constituency will elect their representative to the Parliament on Thursday. Their expectations from the next MP and the new government are high.
A stable government at the Centre is their priority.
"When I go to vote on Thursday I will bear in mind that I have to elect a stable government at the Centre," said Kalbavi Prakash Rao, former president of the Mangalore-based Karnataka Cashew Manufacturers' Association.
"As far as railway network is concerned, Mangalore region has been neglected. A prominent growing city like Mangalore needs good railway network and better train connectivity. I hope the MP we elect will take up this issue seriously with the government," he said.
Mr. Rao said that adequate funds should be made available to improve condition of national highways in the Mangalore region as the standard of the roads was not up to the mark.
The Government had been collecting education cess from tax payers for the past four years. However, government schools and colleges continue to be in poor condition without proper infrastructure, he said. Enough funds should be made available to improve government education institutes, he added.
K.M. Kaveriappa, Vice-Chancellor of the Mangalore University, said that a stable government which would take care of the basic needs of the common man was the need of the hour.
Skill-based education
Improving agriculture technology, strict implementation of population policy with proper incentives, strengthening strategies for conservation of water, supply of clean drinking water and recycling of wastes to reduce pollution could be the core thrust areas of the new policymakers, he said. There was a need to provide "skill-based inclusive education" to those sections of people who were not in the mainstream of society and who could not afford to take up higher education. Such education should enable them to get employment, he said.
'Visionary needed'
Vamana Nandavara, Project Officer, Heritage Village, Pilikula Nisargadhama, said the prevailing political atmosphere does not encourage him to go to the polling booth. However, he would cast his vote, as it was his duty as a citizen, he said.
"It is inevitable for me to choose the best among the candidates in the fray," he added.
Mr. Nandavara, former president of the Karnataka Tulu Sahitya Academy and an expert in folklore studies, said that the condition of many internal roads in the constituency was bad. "The region needs an MP who has a vision for development like the late Srinivasa Mallya," he said.
Mr. Nandavara said that the MP should be able to integrate people of all castes, creed and colour. Presently, society was being divided in different forms.
This should not continue, he said.
Ullal Mohan Kumar, who has been teaching Bharatanatyam for more than three decades, said that the new MP should be able to bring Central grants to the constituency for development works.
The country could have a single-party rule with a strong Opposition party, he added.
