Corporate executives who knowingly conceal defective products that harm consumers would be criminally liable and face prison time under legislation proposed by U.S. Sen. Bob Casey of Scranton.
Casey, D-Scranton, and U.S. Sen. Richard Blumentha, D-Conn., and Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, said they proposed the bill called the Hide No Harm Act of 2014 after General Motors kept secret for nearly a decade defective ignition switches in several of their vehicles before issuing a nationwide recall.
Locally, Damon Szatkowski, 20, and his mother, Karen, of Dallas, filed a lawsuit in Luzerne County Court on Monday against GM and a GM dealership alleging the 2006 Pontiac Solstice he was driving had a faulty ignition switch. Szatkowski, then 17, was driving the Pontiac when it suddenly lost power and veered into a retaining wall in Luzerne on Dec. 3, 2011.
Szatkowski suffered severe and permanent brain and physical injuries. The lawsuit was filed by Casey's brother, attorney Matt Casey of the Philadelphia-based Ross Feller Casey LLP.
The Pontiac Solstice was one of several GM vehicles recalled in 2014.
Casey, Blumentha and Harkin announced the legislation at a news conference in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, a day before General Motors corporate officials are scheduled to testify before a Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation subcommittee.
"You would hope that in most instances, a corporate officer just like any citizen when they see a defect or a problem or a danger that is posed would in fact be summoned by their conscious to do something about it when they know there is a high likelihood their failure to act would lead to injury or death or harm to another human being," Casey said.
"Unfortunately there are folks in our country, many of them tend to be in leadership positions, who for whatever reason is not summoned by their conscious so what this legislation would do is to impose a measure of accountability which we shouldn't have to impose; they should do on their own," Casey added.
Casey and Blumentha said GM officers knew as early as 2004 about the defective ignition switches.
If the legislation becomes law, penalties call for up to five years in prison and fines.
"If a corporate officer knows of a defect in a product that could cause harm to consumers or workers and fails to act then that officer should be held fully accountable by law," Casey said. "The problems with the ignition switch in GM vehicles have had a significant impact on Pennsylvania families. It's not enough for GM to say it's sorry. We have to reform our laws so that those with the power to act are held accountable when they don't."

ClassicsOnline Home » MENDELSSOHN, Felix: Songs without Words, Vol. 1
BBC Music Magazine
"The Emperor Quartets and the Sunrise Quartets ...receive performances of exceptional insight and brilliance...and the Naxos recordings too provide superb sound quality throughout."
Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809 - 1847)
Songs without Words
To contemporaries of Mendelssohn the
notion of songs without words seemed paradoxical. If there were no words, in
fact, there could be no song. Yet what Mendelssohn achieved was exactly what his
title suggested, music in its purest and simplest form, expressing its own
musical meaning, imbued with feeling, but without verbal connotation. At the
same time short piano pieces of this kind would always find a ready amateur
market and would be welcomed by publishers, although this may have been
irrelevant to the composer's purpose.
Felix Mendelssohn, grandson of Moses
Mendelssohn, the great Jewish thinker of the Enlightenment, was born in Hamburg
in 1809, the son of a prosperous banker. His family was influential in cultural
circles, and he and his sister were educated in an environment that encouraged
both musical and general cultural interests. At the same time the extensive
acquaintance of the Mendelssohns among artists and men of letters brought an
unusual breadth of mind, a stimulus to natural curiosity.
Much of Mendelssohn's childhood was
passed in Berlin, where his parents moved when he was three, to escape
Napoleonic invasion. There he took lessons from Goethe's much admired Zelter,
who introduced him to the old poet in Weimar. The choice of a career in music
was eventually decided on the advice of Cherubini, consulted by Abraham
Mendelssohn in Paris, where he was director of the Conservatoire. There
followed a period of further education, a Grand Tour of Europe that took him to
Italy and north to Scotland. His professional career began in earnest with his
appointment as general director of music in Düsseldorf in 1833.
Mendelssohn's subsequent career was
intense and brief. He settled in Leipzig as conductor of the Gewandhaus
concerts, and was instrumental in establishing the Conservatory there. Briefly
lured to Berlin by the King of Prussia and by the importunity of his family, he
spent an unsatisfactory year or so as director of the music section of the
Academy of Arts, providing music for a revival of classical drama under royal
encouragement. This appointment he was glad to relinquish in 1844, later
returning to his old position in Leipzig, where he died in 1847.
As a composer Mendelssohn possessed a
perfect technical command of the resources available to him and was always able
to write music that is felicitous, apt and often remarkably economical in the
way it achieves its effects. Mendelssohn had, like the rest of his family,
accepted Christian baptism, a ceremony Heine once described as a ticket of
admission into European culture. Nevertheless he encountered anti-Semitic
prejudice, as others were to, and false ideas put about in his own life-time
have left some trace in modern repetitions of accusations of superficiality for
which there is no real justification.
The series of Songs without Words
that Mendelssohn wrote and published from 1830 onwards serve as a very personal
musical diary in which the composer expressed very precisely musical ideas that
had, he alleged, no verbal equivalent. It was left to later publishers to
suggest titles for the pieces, a procedure that Mendelssohn himself deplored.
The present release opens with three Songs
without Words from Opus 53, written in 1839 and published in Bonn two years
later. Opus 53 No.2 is gently evocative, No.1 has suggested to some the
sea-shore, No.3 a much more agitated mood. Opus 53 No.4, which is also
included, is tinged with melancholy.
The second book of Songs without Words
was published in 1835, the year in which Mendelssohn took up his appointment as
conductor in Leipzig. The first piece, Opus 30 No.1, is meditative in mood,
No.2 is restless and No.3 bears the English title Consolation.
Mendelssohn published his first collection
of Songs without Words in London in 1830, but under the title Melodies
for the Pianoforte. The present recording includes the fifth of the set of
six, Opus 19 No.5, a stormy interlude.
From the third book of Songs without
Words, Opus 38, published in 1837, come the so-called Poet's Harp and
Hope, and from the fifth book, Opus 62, published in 1844, come two pieces
known as May Breezes and Departure. The sixth book, Opus 67, published
in 1845, is represented by five of the six pieces, given the titles Meditation,
Lost Illusions, Song of the Pilgrim, The Shepherd's Complaint
and Lullaby (Opus 67 Nos. 1,2,3,5 and 6 respectively).
Mendelssohn did not live to see the
publication of the seventh book of Songs without Words, Opus 85, which
was issued in Bonn in 1850. From it the present collection includes Nos.1,2
and4, Reverie, The Adieu and Elegy, while the eighth and final book, Opus 102,
published posthumously in 1868, is represented here by Nos. 3, 5 and 6, a
Tarantella, The Joyous Peasant and Faith.
Péter Nagy
Péter Nagy was born in Eastern Hungary in
1960 and is among the leading pianists of the younger generation in his native
country. He entered the Ferenc Liszt Academy in Budapest at the age of 15,
after winning various prizes at home and abroad, making his first professional
international appearances in Finland and in Yugoslavia in 1977, followed by
concerts at the Salzburg Interforum in 1978 in a duo with his compatriot Balazs
Szokolay. In the same year he toured the German Democratic Republic and the
Soviet Union and in 1979 made his début in France at the Menton Festival. There
followed concerts in West Germany, Switzerland, and the United States of
America, where he took further lessons from Gyorgy Sebok at Indiana University.
Nagy has played in Japan with various orchestras, was in 1987
Artist-in-Residence at the Canberra School of Music in Australia, and has taken
part in the festivals of Aix-en-Provence, Athens, Llandaff, Cardiff, Paris,
Bonn, Cologne, Geneva, Moscow and Leningrad. He is at present soloist with the
Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra and a member of the teaching staff of
the Liszt Academy in Budapest.

Billy Graham Returns Home Following Hospital Observation
ASHEVILLE, N.C., Oct. 11 /PRNewswire/ — Evangelist Billy Graham has returned to his mountain home in Montreat, N.C. upon his release this afternoon from Mission Hospital in nearby Asheville following a brief stay. He was admitted for observation after he tripped over one of his three dogs and fell late Friday.
Mr. Graham's physicians said that he suffered no broken bones in the fall. They had offered him the choice of being released or remaining in the hospital overnight for additional observation. He chose to stay rather than make the trip back home, due to the lateness of the hour. His nurses said that Mr. Graham had an uneventful night, was able to sleep and has since been sitting up in a chair and taking full meals.
Mr. Graham's personal physician, Lucian Rice, MD, confirmed the fall should not pose a setback for the 89-year-old evangelist.
"Of course we worry any time a patient takes a fall, especially an older patient," Dr. Rice said. "But while Mr. Graham is somewhat bruised, with some extremely sore muscles, he seems to have suffered no serious injuries, and in fact he was able to work on his physical therapy regimen first thing the next morning. I am encouraging him to remain as active as possible, but to be mindful of his dog, who likes to keep faithfully at his feet. I expect Mr. Graham to recover fully."
Mr. Graham will celebrate his 90th birthday on Nov. 7.

Atelier Figure drawing
It's been a few months since I've posted here. I've been busy with a few things. I ended up moving to San Francisco back in August. Since then, I've been attending the evening figure drawing classes at atelier. I just finished my third month with them and I wanted to share what I have so far. This program has provided me with a much needed kick in the ass. Crits are welcome.

Beautiful, clean and honest: you're a very refined academist, if I was anyone to tell you. Just a sugestion for sources: I don't know if you're familiar with the work of Saturnino Herran; you may find his work inspiring, as he (althought under the influence of modernism/secession/symbolism ways) serves freely from his master academical skills to render highly poetic renditions of the human situation.
Have a very good day.

How do you render those smoothly shaded areas? Is it good to let your pencil get dull and use the side? I find it difficult.
The Following User Says Thank You to JSArt For This Useful Post:

Thanks. Actually, I keep my pencil pretty sharp. I go back and forth between a 2mm led holder and a 0.03mm mechanical pencil. Value control and being able to render subtle turns is emphasized heavily in atelier drawing. That means spending a lot of time filling in cracks and keeping an eraser handy to knock back stray marks and places where my hand was too heavy.

How do you keep your lead sharp?
December 23rd, 2011 #12
I either use a .03 mechanical pencil, which does not need to be sharpened, or I keep a lead pointer handy when using the 2mm lead holder.
I don't use traditional wooden pecils much but when I do, I use sharpener and exacto knife to keep a thin, long section of lead exposed and needle-sharp. I'm usually too lazy to do this though.

Nice nice good job! Have you considered though adding some more dynamic / loose lines to make it more artistic and less photorealistic or increase some tones at some points (extreme black on small area) to focus the attention of the viewer on one or two points?

Shading is great. You definetely captured volume. However the anatomy is bit off here and there. I was told many times to do a flawless linework first and then go into shading. I guess you should apply this too.

I love your works. Wow, just wow. Love the flow of the poses, the vivd facial expressions, the realistic style of shading.
I also love how distinctive these are of you; I can look at this and not only see a realistic render of the human body, but see yourself and your own, very slight individual flair in the works.
I look forward to seeing more of your stuff. It actually inspires me to work more. You're doing great with your works so far.

Good job hammering away at these studies! One thing I noticed that I think would improve you latest one is the direction of your pencil strokes esp on her leg. If you had them going around the leg rather then down the leg I think they d bring out a greater sense of roundness and form. Being conscious of this over all the forms on the body will likely yield better results. Take a look at some old master drawings and you ll see they do the same thing.
March 29th, 2012 #30
cquinn: Thanks. Yeah. The leg and foot were done in the last session and I worked them right until the buzzer. I've been cleaning up what I could but the foot, I'm convinced, needs some remodeling.

National League Preview from The Sports Network
Saturday, April 7th (All times Eastern)
Philadelphia Phillies (1-0) at Pittsburgh Pirates (0-1), 7:05 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Philadelphia - Cliff Lee (0-0, 0.00) Pittsburgh - Jeff Karstens (0-0, 0.00)
(Sports Network) - Roy Halladay was his usual dominating self on Opening Day.
Now the Philadelphia Phillies hope Cliff Lee can erase the memory from a disappointing postseason when they continue a three-game season-opening set with the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
Lee was terrific in his return to the Phillies in 2011, as he went 17-8 to go along with a 2.40 ERA in 32 starts. He also struck out 238 batters over 232 2/3 innings to go along with an incredible six shutouts.
The lefty won all five of his June starts and did the same in August, while winning seven straight starts from July 30 - Sept. 5.
But, as good as his regular season was the 2008 AL Cy Young Award winner ended his year on a sour note when he was unable to hold a lead in his NLDS Game 2 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, a setback that may have altered the entire series.
Lee, who pitched to a 2.45 ERA this spring. has recorded double-digit win totals in each season since 2008, when he set a career high with 22 victories for Cleveland.
The Phillies began their quest for a sixth straight National League East title in winning fashion on Wednesday, as Halladay tossed eight scoreless innings and Carlos Ruiz had three hits knocked in the only run in a 1-0 victory.
Halladay (1-0), making his 10th consecutive Opening Day start, gave up singles to the first two batters he faced, and none thereafter. The 2010 NL Cy Young Award winner recorded five strikeouts and issued no walks. However, he did hit two Pittsburgh players with pitches.
Former Boston closer Jonathan Papelbon worked a perfect ninth to earn the save in his first game with the Phillies.
"Papelbon came in and did a nice job, got his feet wet," Halladay said.
Erik Bedard (0-1) pitched well in his Pirates debut, scattering six hits, with a walk and four strikeouts over seven innings.
"You got to try to match [Halladay] and I did my best," Bedard said.
Tonight, Pittsburgh will hand the ball to righty Jeff Karstens, who pitched to a 2.12 ERA in four spring starts. Last year he was 9-9 with a 3.38 ERA. He has faced the Phillies five times (three starts) but has yet to record a decision against them, despite a 3.46 ERA.
"I'm just in a really good place on the mound right now," Karstens said after his last spring outing. "In the middle of Spring Training, I think I was walking some guys, coming out of my delivery, worrying about things I shouldn't have been worrying about. We got the focus back, and after today, I'm in a place where I'm really happy about going into the season."
Philadelphia won four of its six matchups with the Pirates last season. However, the Phils are just 7-10 in their last 17 trips to the Steel City.

EXCLUSIVE: Meth prices shifting, cause remains unclear
An increase in price usually means lower use
Street prices for methamphetamine have shot up in San Diego County over the last year, making the illegal stimulant more expensive than the more steadily priced marijuana, cocaine or heroin, federal officials said last week.
Meth's shift in price, from an average of about $10,000 per pound in 2009 to its current $18,000 per pound, hints at a disruption somewhere along the drug's supply chain, although U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency officials said there are too many variables to know for sure.
In neighboring Riverside County, meth prices have dropped over the same period ---- to $11,000 from $13,000.
The cause for the price fluctuations remains unclear, but a sustained price change might have an effect on use, according to at least one study.
For every 1 percent increase in the price of methamphetamine, consumption drops 1.4 percent, according to a 2009 study by UC Santa Cruz and the RAND Corp. think tank.
"The elasticity suggests that methamphetamine use is more price-sensitive than cocaine and heroin," the authors wrote.
Several other studies have shown that even when meth is harder to come by, routine users are less likely to use other drugs instead.
Highly addictive
Methamphetamine is a highly addictive, synthetic crystalline drug made by combining chemicals found in over-the-counter drugs and other products available at many stores.
It causes an intense euphoric feeling that could keep a user awake and active for several days. It also can cause severe paranoia, weight loss, strokes, heart attacks and disfigurement.
Its effects last far longer than comparable stimulants such as crack cocaine. Crack lasts for a few minutes. Meth lasts for hours.
Users go on days-long binges without sleep before crashing and passing out for the better part of a week. They then wake with a renewed hunger for the drug.
Users have been linked to crimes ---- from violent and extreme attacks to rashes of burglaries and identity theft ---- to pay for their habit.
A meth user might burn through an average of 1 or 2 grams a day, said Bob McElroy, president of the Alpha Project, a San Diego-based nonprofit that helps the homeless and has a large addiction-treatment program.
He said that in his decades of experience, getting someone off methamphetamine is more difficult than treating a heroin or cocaine addict.
The lasting effects are even more disturbing, McElroy said.
"It fries their brains," he said. "The schizophrenia-type paranoia, it's long-lasting."
The intense but unsustainable stimulation the drug provides eventually burns out users and dumps them into a deep depression, McElroy said.
There are massive meth lab operations that churn out the drug by the pound, but it can also be cooked up in smaller batches in homes.
San Diego County ---- particularly its eastern reaches ---- was widely considered the meth capital of the nation in the 1980s as the drug made a transition from one popular among outlaw bikers and the rural poor to a drug used by all types.
McElroy said he has noticed meth becoming more scarce thanks to law enforcement efforts. But in McElroy's experience, those really hooked on the drug will find a way to pay for their fix, whether the price is on an upswing or on the decline, he said.

1. Irvine woman writes guide to parent-teen interactions
Irvine resident Karyn Rashoff worked for 33 years as a school guidance counselor and compiled 20,000 counseling interactions with students before she documented her experiences and knowledge by self-publishing her first book in September.
"Parents in Highschooland: Helping Students Succeed in the Critical Years" provides anecdotes and advice to help parents better interact with their high school-aged children.
Recently, the book was reviewed favorably by Publishers Weekly and will receive a top five-star rating in the April issue of the San Francisco Book Review.
"The best thing a parent can do for their teen in the evening is to help get them organized and to teach them how to use time," said Rashoff, who worked as a counselor for 20 years in Saddleback Valley Unified School District.
Rashoff published a 176-page paperback and several electronic editions through her company, BarkingDogBooks.

DOE BETO awards $10M to 7 advanced biofuels projects
February 21, 2015
The US Department of Energy's (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) has selected seven projects to receive up to $10 million to support innovative technologies and solutions to help advance the development of advanced biofuels, including bugaboo and drop-in hydrocarbons.
The Bioenergy Technologies Office is working to produce cost-competitive ($3/gallon of gasoline equivalent) advanced biofuels from non-food biomass resources that reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% or more versus petroleum-based alternatives. These newly selected projects are intended to support this effort.

Gevo produced more than 50K gallons of renewable isobutanol in December
January 08, 2015
Gevo, Inc., the only commercial producer of renewable isobutanol, reported that in December 2014, it produced more than 50,000 gallons (~190,000 liters) of isobutanol through the Side-by-Side operational mode (SBS) of its plant in Luverne, MN, meeting the lower end of the company's target.
In June 2014, Gevo commenced the co-production of isobutanol and ethanol at Luverne, with one fermenter dedicated to isobutanol production and three fermenters dedicated to ethanol production. Gevo had articulated a goal of reaching isobutanol production levels of 50-100 thousand gallons per month by the end of 2014.

UC Riverside researchers find mixed emissions impact from use of higher ethanol and butanol fuels in FFVs
November 24, 2014
A study by University of California, Riverside researchers found that the use of higher ethanol blends and a 55% butanol blend in port-fueled and direct injection flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs) could lead to emission changes of GHGs, CO, aldehydes, BTEX (monoaromatic hydrocarbons of benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene, m/p-xylene, and o-xylene), and particulates.
In a paper in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology, they reported that the higher alcohol fuels would decrease PM mass and number emissions, although current technology direct injection fueling produces higher particle number and soot mass emissions than the PFI fueling as a result of liquid fuel wetting effects and insufficient air fuel mixing. Particulate emissions were clearly influenced by certain fuel parameters including oxygen content, hydrogen content, and aromatics content.

UCLA researchers develop synthetic biocatalytic pathway for more efficient conversion of methanol to longer-chain fuels
November 18, 2014
Researchers at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science led by Dr. James Liao have developed a more efficient way to turn methanol into useful chemicals, such as liquid fuels, and that would also reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The UCLA team constructed a synthetic biocatalytic pathway that efficiently converts methanol under room temperature and ambient atmospheric pressures to higher-chain alcohols or other higher carbon compounds without carbon loss or ATP expenditure.
Building off their previous work in creating a new synthetic metabolic pathway for breaking down glucose that could lead to a 50% increase in the production of biofuels (earlier post), the researchers modified the non-oxidative glycolysis pathway to utilize methanol instead of sugar. An open-access paper on the research was published in the 11 Nov. edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Emissions study suggests E10 + renewable hydrocarbons a high bioenergy alternative for conventional cars
August 14, 2014
Researchers from VTT Technical Research Center of Finland and Neste Oil analyzed the exhaust emissions from three different spark ignition engine technologies—multipoint fuel injection (MPFI); direct-injection spark-ignition (DISI); and flex-fuel (FFV)—using different biofuels—low- and high-concentration ethanol blends; isobutanol; and biohydrocarbons. They report their findings in a paper in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology.
Among their conclusions was that the combination of ethanol or isobutanol with renewable hydrocarbon components (i.e., drop-in biohydrocarbons) could offer an option to achieve a high-bioenergy-content gasoline that is compatible with conventional gasoline-fueled cars (i.e., those limited to a 10% ethanol blend) without a significant change in emissions.

Synthetic biology company launches JV to commercialize gas-to-liquids bioconversion; isobutanol first target
March 28, 2014
Synthetic biology company Intrexon Corporation has formed Intrexon Energy Partners (IEP), a joint venture with a group of external investors, to optimize and to scale-up Intrexon's gas-to-liquids (GTL) bioconversion platform. IEP's first target product is isobutanol for gasoline blending.
Intrexon's natural gas upgrading program is targeting the development of an engineered microbial cell line for industrial-scale bioconversion of natural gas to chemicals, lubricants and fuels, as opposed to employing standard chemical routes. Intrexon says it has already achieved initial proof of concept with an engineered microbial host converting methane into isobutanol in a laboratory-scale bioreactor.

Gevo transitioning Luverne plant to produce both isobutanol and ethanol; "side-by-side" configuration
March 26, 2014
Bio-isobutanol company Gevo, Inc. is transitioning its Luverne plant to the production of both isobutanol and ethanol. Gevo said that its decision—announced during its 4Q 2013 earnings call—to transition to the simultaneous production of both products is a direct result of (1) the steady progress made in executing its flexible production technology strategy and (2) the current high ethanol margin environment.
Producing both ethanol and isobutanol allows Gevo to fully utilize the Luverne plant and increase cash flow as Gevo continues to commercialize its isobutanol production capabilities.

Domenico da Cese
|This article relies largely or entirely upon a single source. (December 2010)
Padre Domenico da Cese (March 27, 1905 - September 17, 1978) was a stigmatist monk of the Capuchin order.
Padre Domenico was born Emilio Petrarca in Cese, Italy.[1] At school, on January 12, 1915, when he was nine, he called out in class that there was going to be an earthquake that night and there was. He and his father were almost killed when their church collapsed on top of them and they had to be pulled from the rubble.
Emilio joined the Capuchin order and became a friend of Padre Pio who also bore the stigmata. Padre Domenico became a believer and proponent of the Holy Face of Manoppello eventually getting permission to live near the image.
In September 1978, when in Turin to visit the Shroud of Turin the six foot tall Domenico was hit by a young man driving a Fiat and died on his injuries on the seventeenth. He was buried in his hometown of Cese.

Personal Trainers
My favorite part about being a personal trainer is educating my clients on how to make themselves better physically and mentally. By providing an exercise program, I hope to create a long term, positive lifestyle change towards their health and fitness goals. I like to incorporate circuit training, focusing on cardio and resistance exercises, but am also open to client's preferences throughout the program. I understand the importance of motivation in exercise, and want to help my clients enjoy a healthy and active lifestyle.
My favorite part of being a personal trainer is seeing the physical and mental progression in my clients as a result of the effort put forth through training. Being able to improve a person's overall wellness and self-efficacy is incredibly humbling and rewarding. Having the ability to influence people in that aspect drives me. I am currently in-house certified and my favorite style of training is a mixture of circuit and high-volume training.
I love being a personal trainer because it gives me the opportunity to help others make a positive lifestyle change and achieve their fitness goals. I incorporate many different training styles into my sessions; anything from functional movement to sports specific training. I tailor each session to each individual client and that gives me the ability to help them reach their goals and go above and beyond what they thought could be possible. I like to push my clients to see past the barriers and make exercise a part of their daily lives.
The best aspect of being a personal trainer for me is that with my services and the clients' will power, I can help somebody achieve their fitness goals. It gives me an inner satisfaction when I am able to build a good relationship with my clients and see them trusting me in progressing towards their goals and feel happy when they are able to achieving them. I am a certified Sports physical therapist as well, so my training methods generally focus on the entire body fitness with special attention to the area that is to be corrected. I rely mostly on active fitness and less on the machines.
My favorite part about being a trainer is that I am able to see people progress towards their goals and that exercise has a positive impact on their everyday life. I am a USA weightlifting certified coach and have a passion for the clean, jerk, and snatch variations. My training style is strength training as well as high intensity intervals but, I know how to adapt for clients who may not be ready for those types of workouts.
My favorite thing about being a personal trainer is being able to change someone's life for the better and help them improve their health and physical performance. I enjoy challenging my clients with plyometric and weight training.

Between Riverside and Crazy Bares Its Wounds
By Tom Sellar
A jolly madness barreled through Radio City's famous art deco corridors, with parents shelling out up to $125 a ticket to give their loved ones the Rockette memory of a lifetime. Too bad, then, that all the children in attendance seemed to be stricken with the croup. The coughing temporarily subsided during the 3-D film of Santa flying through the New York skyline, dispensing gifts from his sled to Manhattan rich kids. An emcee Santa then led the celebration of the true meaning of Christmaslots and lots and lots of presents. Young Clara danced a dream sequence where her toys actually came to life (with an odd penchant for butt jokes), while the Rockettes pretended that they were store window mannequins granted momentary animation through the miracle of shopping. I knew it was time to leave, however, when Santa, exploding a cannon at a line of Rockettes kitted out as wooden soldiers, started dragging the fallen bodies into his sack. What was for most an instance of holiday magic seemed to me a trenchant allegory of American capitalism.
My condition was obviously bordering on Scrooge-like acuity. What else was there to do, then, but place myself in the hands of Dickens? If anyone could banish the killjoy specter of Marx, it was the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future urging us to be lavish with our hearts and wallets. The Madison Square Garden Theater, home of the 10th annual A Christmas Carol: The Musical, is not, however, the ideal environment for spiritual self-renewal. It was like watching a Vegas-style extravaganza on a subway car during rush hour, with everyone elbowing past to get to their seats or treat themselves to another tub of caramel corn. "Bah, humbug," I mumbled to myself after reading that this was the final year MSG was hosting the event. Jim Dale, who's the last in the productions all-star lineup of Scrooges, deserves better, as does the army of children, whose raucous screaming seemed only tangentially related to the cartoonish drama unfolding onstage.
Craving something a bit more soulful, I headed uptown to the United Palace to experience Nativity: A Life Story, the gospel version of the birth of Christ, starring Stephanie ("I Never Knew Love Like This Before") Mills as the Virgin Mary. Now, here was a theater-cum-church where religious revelations were meant to occur. Between the joyous r&b voices and fluid interpretive dancing, I began to feel the frozen ground inside of me melt. Unfortunately, the production isn't a concert version but includes plodding narration of theforgive me, Lordfar-fetched New Testament saga. As Mary tries to explain to Joseph how she divinely got pregnant in his absence, my mind flooded with questions that the pious musical simply couldn't handle. "Sing another song," the unlapsed Catholic part of me nervously demanded. But by this time it was too late. I had fallen prey to seasonally inappropriate, if not downright blasphemous, thoughts.
My benighted path led straight to the seedy Belt Theater, where Lea Delaria's holiday cabaret, Virgin Mary, Make Mine a Double, was flying under the Vatican's radar. Like me, Delaria hasnt been feeling it this year. Not only does the sound of "Silent Night" send the bull dyke in her into a cruising-for-a-bruising mood, but she's also too inflamed with vengeance for her own "axis of evil" (George Bush, Pope John Paul II, and Andrew Lloyd Webber) to wish anyone glad tidings. Fortunately, her jazz crooning of Christmas carols is enough to buoy anyone's flagging spirits, though the accompanying raunchy patter, not to mention goofy sex-toy games with eager audience members, weren't exactly part of the old-fashioned Christmas I had in mind.
Prepared to give up, I decided instead to finagle a ticket to Jackie Hoffman's Hanukkah, a one-night-only gig at the Lucille Lortel that represented my last chance at holiday redemption. Dressed in her Hairspray dressing-room robe, the angst-wracked comedian poses as a Christmas-quashing diva who can't help taking "O Come, All Ye Faithful" as an anti-Semitic attack. Surrounded by funny friends (including the obsessive-compulsive humorist Seth Rudetsky, who offers a lecture on Barbra Streisand's maddeningly idiosyncratic phrasing), Hoffman strives to take "the Hanukkah celebration out of the kosher closet." In the process, she teaches the wisest of holiday lessonsthat the only way to survive the season is to renew all your old prescriptions and convert the endless ironies of this darkest time of year into killingly funny jokes.

Most oil is produced from Mississippian limestone and sandstone in eastern and western Kentucky or from Ordovician limestone and dolomites in southern Kentucky. Most natural gas is produced from the Devonian black shale in eastern Kentucky.
Kentucky's existing oil and gas infrastructure is extensive. Finding and production costs are low due to the occurrence of shallow resources. Kentucky is centrally located for access and distribution to northern and eastern industrial markets.
Proper Power & Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PPWE.OB)
"The timing to acquire oil and gas properties while gas prices are low couldn't be better. Additionally, the availability of this funding for developing Proper Power's Kentucky and Utah oil prospects will accelerate 2011 revenues and leasehold acreage growth dramatically. We anticipate feedback from both of the financing groups before the end of this month," stated Andrew J. Kacic, President of Proper Power & Energy.
PPWE is an independent exploration and production company. The Company's operations are in Kentucky, which provides for low risk developmental drilling and production, and Utah, which the Company controls over 11,000 acres for its exploratory prospect.

Dear Dr. Bill,
I'm a new mother of a 4-month-old. I worry constantly about my baby's health and well being, and I have a great fear of her getting sick. I insist on my family & friends washing their hands before they touch her. I also refuse to let her visit anybody who is sick.
However, my husband's family is VERY laid back, and they don't agree with my concerns. In fact, my husband thinks I'm trying to put our baby "in a bubble" and that we can't protect her from everything. I disagree and this is a big issue with us...what should we do?
Dear Jeannie,
You and your husband should meet in the middle on this issue. You need to relax and he and his family needs to be more sensitive your concerns. Most new moms are a bit anxious about their baby's health.
I can speak from personal experience. My wife Lisa was very cautious with our first child, Joseph. She kept anyone with a cold a full football field length away from him when he was an infant. She was a lot more relaxed with Anna, our second child.
If you are nursing, you'll be happy to learn that your baby is more immune to contracting infections due to the antibodies in breast milk. But even if your baby is receiving formula, the fact is that a four-month-old baby should be able to weather a cold just fine.
The major concern is the possibility of contracting an ear infection along with a cold, but most ear infections can be easily treated with antibiotics. The flu can be more problematic, and pediatricians recommend that babies over 6 months of age receive a flu shot.
In order to calm your fears, I would suggest you order Focus on the Family's "Complete Book of Baby and Child Care." It's a wonderful resource written by top pediatricians and family doctors.
Thanks for writing Jeannie. If you have a question for me about family issues or Christian living, click the "Questions" link on the Culture Connection page.

Big Boss 7 – Day 9 | Tanisha And Andy Fight Over Daily Chores
Reality show, Bigg Boss – Season 7 is getting interesting day-by-day, what with Day 9 witnessing a heated conversation between Tanisha and Andy.
Tanisha and Andy were seen picking up on each other over the household chores. While Tanisha has delegated work amongst the housemates, Andy is feeling that she has put a lot of pressure on him.
When Tanisha was chosen to be the first captain over Andy in the Bigg Boss house, he did not take it in a positive way. Moreover, Tanisha's dominating nature after she became the captain of the house has been bothering everyone.
Considering Rajat is not well and is not able to carry on with his duties, Andy has to fill in for him. While Andy is doing his daily workout, Tanisha gets upset on him for not doing his part of work.
Andy couldn't take Tanisha's accusations and screams at her for making him feel guilty. He says that Tanisha is being unfair and not being considerate at all. The fight soon becomes very intense and Shilpa has to step in to calm them down.
With all that tension and friction inside the house, it will be interesting to see how the dynamics of their relationship change in coming days.

I continue to be obsessed with faces and painting faces and now, I have added collage to the mix.

Most of all this is about painting collaged faces. I demonstrate using metallic paints for flesh as well as other paint media.

This class is about painting faces with a wild and crazy palette of technicolors. In this class we will start with a blank white canvas, go on a model search, discuss the importance of values when painting faces, do an exercise to better see values, discuss the color wheel, go on a search for background inspiration and learn how to incorporate the colors in the background. I will demonstrate using a few Golden heavy body paints and mediums. However, you do not have to use the same brand or colors that I will be using.

PORTLAND -- Citizens who call themselves the Guardian Angels are on patrol in Northeast Portland to try and do their part to control gang problems in the area.
They are responding to 10 recent gang-related shootings in the city.
The Guardian Angels are known for their distinctive red berets and community involvement in gang-infested areas. They believe the only way to stop gang violence is to get the community involved.
Chapter leader Paul Grudzinski was trying to urge people with information about the shootings to come forward. So far, few people have cooperated with police, including the surviving victims.
It seems like they want to do something about the violence, but they don't want to step up and do the action, Grudzinski said. The only way these gangs can survive is if we don't do anything, that's the only way.
Portland police said the city has already reached the yearly average for gang shootings and that s with four months remaining.

The original, ancient Greek meaning of democracy—"the People's capacity to do things"—emphasizes citizen participation. By acting as citizens, with the authority to decide important public matters, we achieve a basic human good: freely exercising our distinctive natural capacities of speech and reason, to deliberate about public interests. Moreover, the conditions necessary for an extensive and diverse citizenry to address public interests require other independently valued goods: freedom of speech and association, political equality, and civic dignity. Democracy is therefore good for the exercise of our innate capacities and good for liberty, equality, and dignity.
The Simpson Center will accept applications for collaborative projects—including Colloquia and Conferences, Crossdisciplinary Research Clusters, Graduate Student Interest Groups, Large-Scale Collaborations, Public Scholarship / Community Engagement, and Full Professor Crossdisciplinary Conversation Awards—for the 2013-2014 academic year beginning April 1. The deadline for this spring funding round is April 17, 2013.
Applications to the Simpson Center's Certificate in Public Scholarship program are due April 17, 2013 for coursework beginning in Fall 2013. Graduate students of good standing in any program at the UW are eligible to apply.
The guiding impulse of the humanities involves the creation and interpretation of archives. Historically "the archive" connotes repositories of officially-sanctioned value—Shakespeare's folios, the Eisenhower papers, government-sponsored entities such as the National Archives & Records Administration. The Women Who Rock research project, now in its third year of funding by the Simpson Center, wants to rock that idea, revising popular and academic accounts by producing alternative, community-driven archives in a D.I.Y. ("do-it-yourself") spirit.
The Simpson Center has met its goal of matching the National Endowment for the Humanities Challenge Grant in support of the digital humanities! Thanks to our donors, we have raised $1.875 million since fundraising began in 2009!
Congrats to UW graduate student Martha Gonzalez (Gender, Women, & Sexuality Studies), former Simpson Center staff member Quetzal Flores, and their band Quetzal! Their album "Imaginaries" has won a Grammy for in the "Latin Pop, Rock, or Urban Album" category.
Each year as flu season approaches we're alerted to the threat posed by new strains of influenza—evolving in the wild, in laboratories, and in society. This winter, Biological Futures in a Globalized World sponsors a forum to explore the ethics and politics of H5N1 research in the context of the global political and economic inequalities that condition devastating pandemics, as well as to determine how we respond to these threats.
In one generation, we have undergone tremendous changes in how we communicate, socialize, learn, do business, and engage in civic life. We rely on non-experts for information on sites such as Wikipedia and take the advice of strangers on everything from restaurant recommendations to health care. Interactive digital technologies have changed how we learn in everyday life far faster than they've changed the structures, motives, and metrics of our educational systems. Until now. According to Winter 2013 Katz Lecturer Cathy N. Davidson, we are on the threshold of a monumental transformation in higher education, one aimed at the needs and expectations of the next generation of resilient, connected, self-paced, peer-inspired, creative, multidisciplinary, and multicultural global learners.
Construction is currently under way to transform three small offices into a 375 square-foot flexible, multidisciplinary collaboration space at the Simpson Center! The new space will be a hybrid: part digital scholarship lab and part space for scholarly discussion. Flexibility is the key concept behind this space. By selecting furniture and equipment that is easily stored, stacked, folded, and moved, this space will be a dynamic meeting space for a variety of small engagements and activities.
Shannon Speed (Anthropology, University of Texas), Nicole Guidotti- Hernández (American Studies, University of Texas), and William Nericcio (English and Comparative Literature & Chicana/o Studies, San Diego State University) all visit the UW during Winter 2013 as part of the 2012-13 John E. Sawyer Seminar series B/ordering Violence: Boundaries, Gender, Indigeneity in the Americas. Their talks focus on the intersections of gender, violence, and popular culture.

Is privacy possible in a social network? And, if so, which social-network service does it the best? We put Facebook and LinkedIn head-to-head to find out which is better.
Responses from my friends and connections: Advantage LinkedIn
What did my friends and connections say about this comparison? Their unanimous vote was in favor of LinkedIn. "You can't compare the two," wrote one, who explained that they serve different purposes.
Facebook is for sharing private information with friends, she elaborated, while LinkedIn is for sharing professional information with acquaintances.
Others complained about Facebook's regular changes in privacy settings that force them to spend time figuring out what just changed and how to set it back to the privacy-friendly position.
Track record: Advantage LinkedIn
The last time I was in Silicon Valley, I decided to get a visual on where all my data was. I was amazed at how close together everything was situated.
Just down the street from Google's Mountain View headquarters is LinkedIn. I couldn't have swung a dead cat around my head without hitting a Yahoo building.
And within another half hour I'd been to Apple in Cupertino and Facebook in Palo Alto.
According to LinkedIn's company search, employees routinely job hop among these companies. Facebook and LinkedIn have followed similar trajectories.
Founded in 2004, Facebook reportedly employs about 1,000 who serve over 400 million users. LinkedIn, launched in 2003, has roughly 500 employees serving a reported 60 million users.
In spite of their similar culture and business models, the companies have markedly different privacy track records.
LinkedIn has not messed up on privacy. A web search drew blanks on this topic.
The same can't be said for Facebook, which has suffered a string of policy gaffes and investigations by the US, Canadian and British governments.
At a January 2010 conference in San Francisco, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg explained the company's approach, saying that changing Facebook's privacy policies and settings is a strategy to keep the company fresh as social norms for privacy evolve.
So, the final vote: three advantages for LinkedIn, and three ties.
Everything considered, one of the best privacy innovations these two firms have offered has been the concept of granular privacy controls.
Their future growth into emerging markets - where people may be more cautious about their online privacy - may depend on it.

Depiction of the gradual and constant frequency-altered feedback (FAF) conditions. During baseline (trials 1-30), the pitch of auditory feedback was not manipulated. During perturbation (FAF) trials, presented in gray, auditory feedback was manipulated from trial 31 (solid vertical line) to trial 80 (all FAF trials represented by the dashed line).

(B) Auditory feedback was shifted by a constant value (-100 cents) for all FAF trials.
