Just in Time for Opera Season - Santa Fe Opera Package
The Inn and Spa at Loretto is pleased to announce our 2013 Santa Fe Opera Package celebrating the longstanding summer tradition of outstanding operatic performances at The Santa Fe Opera. The package combines accommodations for two nights at our iconic Santa Fe hotel, an exclusive guide to the 2013 opera season, and a dining credit at Luminaria restaurant for pre or post-opera dining.
The 2013 opera season includes the world premiere of Oscar and the return of The Grand Duchess of Gerolstein, which has not been performed by the Company in 34 years. The season also includes the first Santa Fe Opera performance of La Donna Del Lago, and the revival of favorites The Marriage of Figaro and La Traviata.

Ministry of Trade has announced that Ethiopian exports earned US$1.4 billion over the last six months. Presenting the six-month performance of the Ministry to Parliament, Kebede Chane, the Minister of Trade, said this year's earnings showed an increase of five percent compared to that of the same period last year.
Despite this, he added, the export performance during the previous last six months had only met 64.4 percent of the intended targets. Ato Kebede said the failure to reach targets had been due to poor performances in agriculture and in the mining sector which the Ministry did not monitor. The Ministry is now planning to encourage exports by monitoring agricultural productivity.

'Saturday Night Live': Dana Carvey promo, 'Backstage' documentary coming
You know how if you say a word over and over, it starts to sound strange?
That's kind of what happens in the above "Saturday Night Live" promo that touts former cast member Dana Carvey's hosting gig on Saturday (Feb. 5). Carvey and Andy Samberg, channeling "Wayne's World," say "Schwing!" so many times that the word loses all meaning. (Kudos to both of them, though, for keeping a relatively straight face throughout the bit.)
Carvey's turn as host marks his first in-person appearance on the show since 2000 (he lent his voice to a brief cartoon in the Robert De Niro-hosted episode in December). Linkin Park is the musical guest on Saturday.
In other "SNL" news, NBC will present another documentary about the show's history on Sunday, Feb. 20. "Saturday Night Live Backstage" will include clips, musical performances, audition footage and interviews with cast members and hosts about events and controversies in the show's long history.
Kenneth Bowser, who wrote and directed the previous, decade-themed "SNL" documentaries, is doing the same for "Backstage."

Rick Browne, Ph.B takes a look at Australia's love affair with barbecue in "Baang-gaa to Barbies: Australia's Barbecue Heritage," excerpted from the May/June issue of Burn! Magazine.
Let me smash a common misconception about Australian barbecue: Down Under, they cook prawns —no one here "slips another shrimp on the Barbie."
In fact, cooking shrimp, er, prawns on a barbecue was never all that popular. At least, not until a certain macho, crocodile-wrestlin' movie star uttered the quote in a 1980s ad campaign to get Yanks to go Oz (that's Australia, for those of you who can't keep up).
Aussie barbecues back then usually consisted of "mystery bags," or "snags" of various sorts—that's sausages to you and me—which were cooked up on flat grills or hot plates. "Don't fork the snags," was the warning heard most often, as an inexperienced griller might puncture the snag with his or her fork and let all the juices leak out.
Like their U.S. counterparts, Aussies today are much more sophisticated when it comes to grilling. Today's barbecue menu might feature such exotic fare as Malaysian spotted prawns marinated in Chinese hoisin and Japanese sake, dusted with lemon myrtle and drizzled with a honey-onion-macadamia nut sauce.
Aussies use their barbecue grills much more often than we Americans do. In fact, we're third on the list of the world's most avid barbecuers, after Australia and South Africa. Even the government participates by mandating free gas or electric barbecues in parks, beaches, and campsites. And if you come across the rare Barbie that's not free, the twenty cents to operate is still a deal.
When it comes to backyard grilling, Australians prefer faster-cooking, uncovered flattop gas grills, as opposed to slower-cooking, covered charcoal grills. Recent legislation banning backyard fires in and around major cities has boosted the use of gas barbies, especially as devastating bush fires become more and more common.
Even boaters and yachtsmen take part in the barbecue craze, mounting stainless steel propane barbies on the aft decks of their vessels. Three-quarters of the yachts we saw on an afternoon cruise had barbecues mounted on the stern rails.
And when we consider Aussie barbie, let's not forget that the native aboriginals where here first, about 40,000 years before the British Empire landed a boat full of convicts on the continent's shores. In that time, the aborigines perfected "bush tucker"—the fruits, vegetables, and game harvested in the wild—and the best methods with which to cook it. That's right, barbecue.
Read the full article, as well as Rick's recommendations for the best restaurants Down Under in the May/June issue of Burn! Magazine, out now.

This particular "burger" is a fired-up re-creation of a fish sandwich one of our editors devoured in the tiny town of San Pedro on Ambergris Caye, Belize. The restaurant was called Elvies Burger Isle, and the diners sat outside under a tamarind tree on picnic benches. If ever there was a simple to prepare, quick and easy fish recipe with significant heat, this is it. Serve with Curried Pineapple Serrano Salsa, french fries, crispy cole slaw, and to toast Elvie, a frosty tamarind cooler.
Belizean Rubbed and Grilled Fish Burger 1 teaspoon ground habanero chile 1 teaspoon garlic salt 1 teaspoon ground thyme ½ teaspoon ground allspice 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1 tablespoon olive oil 4 small white fish fillets, such as snapper, trigger fish, or grouper 4 rolls
Curried Pineapple Serrano Salsa
1 ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut in 1/4-inch slices3 serrano chiles, stems removed, chopped2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar1 tablespoon orange juice2 teaspoons curry powder2 teaspoons brown sugar1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
In a bowl, combine the chile, salt, garlic, thyme, allspice and nutmeg. Brush the fillets with the oil and dust with the spice mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature while you prepare the grill. Cut the rolls in half length-wise and brush with 1 tablespoon oil. Grill the fish in a grill basket over medium heat until done, about 5 minutes per side, or until the fillets flake. Grill the rolls to slightly warm.
To make the salsa, grill the pineapple slices or heat in a pan for 5 to 10 minutes until the pineapple is browned. Dice the pineapple. Combine all the ingredients for the salsa, except for the cilantro, and allow to sit at room temperature for an hour to blend the flavors. Toss with the cilantro and spread over the fish burgers.

Latest dispatch from the Burn! Blog...
Have you ever stood in the wine section at your local grocery store or Costco and felt completely and utterly lost, unsure of which bottle is the right one for you? Finally, you no longer have to be a sommelier to buy wine like one!
A free mobile application is taking the guesswork out of finding and purchasing wine. The new Natalie MacLean Wine Picks & Pairings app lets you use your smartphone camera to snap a picture of any bottle label bar code in the liquor store. With one click, you can get tasting notes, scores, and food pairings.
"You're in the wine shop wondering if you should buy the bottle with the castle on its label or the one with the fluffy squirrel," says Natalie MacLean, the editor of one of the largest wine web sites at www.nataliemaclean.com. She created the tool to make buying wine easier for consumers. "Now you just point and click to find out if that pinot noir actually is a good wine to go with [tomorrow night's dinner]. No more guesswork based on castles and critters."
You can scan the wines right in front of you at the store. The app's key features allow you to:
- Instantly access tasting notes, scores, prices, recipes and food pairings - Search 150,000 wines at liquor stores across the country - Track your purchases in your virtual cellar with just a few clicks - Create a wine journal with your own wine notes and pictures in the app - Share your wines and pairings on Twitter and Facebook
The app, designed by Fluid Trends, bundles a suite of 10 wine apps including reviews, cellar journals, recipes, food pairings, articles, blog posts, a wine glossary, a bi-weekly newsletter, a directory of wineries around the world and excerpts from Natalie's bestselling book Red, White and Drunk All Over as well as her new book out this fall Unquenchable: A Tipsy Quest for the World's Best Bargain Wines.
A certified sommelier and winner of the World's Best Wine Writer award at the World Food Media Awards, Natalie wrote and vetted all the pairings and wine reviews in the app rather than relying on computer-generated algorithms and crowd-sourced material. She is the only person to have won both the M.F.K. Fisher Distinguished Writing Award from the James Beard Foundation and the M.F.K. Fisher Award for Excellence in Culinary Writing from Les Dames d'Escoffier International, but to amateur wine lovers everywhere, she's a hero.
Cheers to that!

We're cooking up this classic enchilada dish in honor of Cinco de Mayo. This dish features stacked, not rolled, enchiladas covered in ground beef and pork and smothered in red chile sauce. It was originally served at the early 1960s Albuquerque restaurant, Videz. The restaurant was torn down to make way for Interstate 40, but the recipe lives on in the pages of the May/June issue of Burn!
Stacked Red Chile Enchiladas
6 to 8 dried red New Mexican chiles, stems and seeds removed 1 clove garlic 1 teaspoon ground Mexican oregano 1/2 pound pork, cubed from a roast or chops 1 to 1 and 1/2 pounds very lean ground beef 12 corn tortillas Vegetable oil for frying 2 cups grated cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese 1 medium onion, chopped
Cover the chiles with very hot water and soak for 20 to 30 minutes or until limp and partially rehydrated. Place the chiles in the blender (they should loosely fill 3/4 of the container, if more, make two small batches.) Fill the container up near the top with water. Drop in the clove of garlic and sprinkle the top with the oregano. Add a little salt at this stage if you wish. Blend for 2 to 3 minutes on high or until a homogeneous or orangish-red mixture is obtained.
Pour the mixture into a saucepan and add the pork. Cook, covered over a very low heat or uncovered at a slight bubble, for 2 to 3 hours. If cooked uncovered, periodically add water back to original level to maintain proper consistency which I can only describe as medium soupy. Remove the pork pieces and save for another meal such as carne adovada. Place the chile sauce in the refrigerator and cool. Remove any fat that congeals on the top. Season the beef with a little salt and pepper and saute in a skillet until the meat is no longer pink. Combine the sauce and beef and simmer, covered, for an additional 30 to 45 minutes. Fry three tortillas per person in a couple of inches of oil until they are slightly harder than taco shells. As they are removed from the oil with tongs, dip each into the red chile pot until they are fully submerged. Remove, place on a plate and top with some cheese and onion. Continue the process until the tortillas are stacked three high on each plate. Ladle red chile, including a small amount of the meat, over the tortilla stack until it is puddled up as deep as it will stand around the base of the stack. Cover the enchilada lightly with grated cheese and place in a 250 degree oven for 20 minutes.

Tuscan Devil Chicken
In Italian, this chicken is called pollo alla diavolo because of the addition of crushed red pepperoncini chiles, the same kind that is sprinkled on pizzas to liven them up. Traditionally the chickens are split before grilling, but you can use a rotisserie if you wish–it just takes longer to cook. Adding rosemary branches to the fire makes a very aromatic smoke. Make this a true meal off the grill and serve the devil chicken with Grilled Panzananella Salad and Grilled Jalapeño Polenta.
The Chicken 1 4-pound chicken
Devil Marinade2/3 cup dry red wine such as Chianti 1/3 cup olive oil 2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh preferred 11/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary or 11/2 teaspoons dried 11/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage or 11/2 teaspoons dried 2 teaspoons crushed red chile, pequin for hot, New Mexican for mild 2 cloves garlic 1/4 teaspoon salt
Using poultry shears, or a heavy knife, cut down both sides of the backbone to cut the chicken in half. Remove the backbone and place the chicken on a cutting board skin side up. Press hard on the breastbone to break it and flatten the bird. In a bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients. Coat the chicken with the marinade, place in a plastic bag, and marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator. Lightly oil a clean grill surface. Remove the chicken and place the remaining marinade in a small saucepan and simmer for 20 minutes. Place chicken on the grill, skin side down and weight down with a cast iron skillet so the chicken remains flat. Grill for 15 to 20 minutes per side, basting frequently with the marinade until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork, or when the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. To serve, use a cleaver to chop the split chicken halves into quarters. Yield: 4 servings Heat Scale: MediumPhoto courtesy GailloZafferano.

The much sought after cure for cancer could be heating up. Recent findings from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center suggests that capsaicin, the active chemical compound that gives chile peppers their heat, may reduce and even block chronic inflammation pathways in cancer cells.
In an article posted on MD Anderson's blog, professor in the Department of Experimental Therapeutics, Dr. Bharat Aggarwal, Ph.D., points out that, "Symptoms common in cancer patients, such as depression, fatigue, neuropathic pain, metastases and tumor growth, are due to inflammation. By using capsaicin, we can inhibit these things."
While capsaicin has long been linked to boosting metabolism, lowering the risk of ulcers, and reducing muscle pain and inflammation, scientists say its cancer-curing potential has yet to be fully tapped. One problem holding scientists back?
"Chiles are a double-edged sword -- a little bit is good, but too much is bad," Aggarwal says. "Many people's stomachs can't handle red chile."
In a recent Phase III placebo-controlled trial at the Geisinger Clinical Oncology Program in Danville, Pa., many patients experienced discomfort with a topical capsaicin ointment. And while patients in the trial preferred the capsaicin to the placebo as a pain-reliever, the extreme heat of most pepper varieties may prove too hot to handle – for now, at least.

In an article posted on The Atlantic's website last week, Gary Paul Nabhan, co-author of Chasing Chiles: Hot Spots Along the Pepper Trail, addressed the relationship between farming in the Southwest and climate change—both food production and food security have been cast into question with the growing scarcity of water and unpredictable growing seasons and weather patterns, such as drought.
Nabhan points out that with water capacity near its limit for cities and rural agricultural areas, "food security in the Southwest depends upon the security of water supplies being delivered to irrigable land. That capacity, we can now see, has been severely impaired by urban growth in the Sunbelt since World War II, and is likely to be further impacted by the vagaries of weather shifts."
The burden of addressing such trends, says Nabhan, falls on both the consumer and farmer, and while individual responses may not be enough to reverse the trends. Sustainable agriculture and good farming practices may be the best way to counter the growing threat of food security in the region.
In Chasing Chiles, Nabhan, along with co-authors Kurt Michael Friese and Kraig Kraft, set out to discover the history and potential of America's heirloom chile varieties. Their journey reveals the chile pepper's dynamic role in understanding climate change and the future of food production.
So how can food producers and eaters in the Southwest improve their "foodprints?"
"Eat and farm as if the earth matters, as we should have been doing all along," says Nabhan in Chasing Chiles. "Regardless of how quickly we can implement the specific fixes proposed to mitigate climate change, we all need to reduce our carbon [footprint] and adapt to change in ways that keep the earth's bounty as diverse, as delicious, and as resilient as possible."
As an orchard keeper and chile grower, Nabhan has committed to do his share to curve the growing trend of climate change by conserving water between rainfalls, growing regional-appropriate crops, such as drought and heat-tolerant heirlooms, and soil-building.
For the rest of us, Nabhan, Friese, and Kraft have these suggestions in Chasing Chiles:
If nothing else, says Nabhan, "I get down on my knees and put my hands into the earth."

March 27th is national Paella day, and if you've never had a chance to try this famous Spanish dish, it's the perfect time. Paella is perhaps one of Spain's best-known dishes, originating in the Valencia region, and is one of the national dishes of Spain.
In its most traditional form—called paella Valenciana, it is made up of rice, green vegetables, some kind of meat, snails, beans, and spices—including saffron and garlic. Other varieties include seafood paella, in which seafood is substituted for the meat and snails of the Valencia recipe, or mixed paella, which contains both meat and seafood.
True paella Valenciana is a treat for any fan of Spain's gamey, earthy dishes, but if the thought of snails in your paella sounds a little too traditional, we suggest this mixed paella recipe from One Tribe Gourmet.com.
Andalusian Mixed Paella
1 ripe tomato 1/2 cup white wine 1 red onion, chopped 12 black mussels, beards removed & scrubbed 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 red onion, extra, finely chopped 2 pieces Italian sausage, cook ahead & sliced 2 wood roasted paquillo peppers, chopped 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 cup sivaris bomba paella rice 1/2 teaspoon Spansih saffron threads 2 cups organic chicken stock, heated 1/2 cup frozen peas 12 extra large shrimp, unpeeled 12 little neck clams 1 handful parsley, chopped 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground 1/2 teaspoon Spanish pimenton smoked paprika
Heat the wine and onions in a saucepan over high heat. Add the mussels, cover for five minutes. Remove from the heat, discard any unopened mussels, and drain, reserving the liquid to use later in the recipe. Heat the oil in a large, heavy bottomed paella pan, add the extra onion, Italian sausage (sliced) cook for five minutes, or until softened. Add the chopped tomatoes, paquillo peppers, pimenton smoky paprika, & cayenne pepper. Season with sea salt & freshly ground black pepper. Stir in the reserved (wine/mussels) liquid, then add the rice and stir again. Blend the saffron with the stock and stir into the rice mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes without stirring. Put the peas, shrimp, clams on top of the rice. Push them into the rice, cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, turning over halfway through, until the rice is cooked. Add the mussels & lemon juice for the last 5 minutes to heat through. If the rice is not cooked, add extra stock and cook for a few more minutes. Leave to rest for 5 minutes, then add the parsley.
Serves 4 Heat level: Medium

Home 'For Sale' signs no longer have tubes with fliers in front
PHOENIX -- If you drive around and look at houses with "For Sale" signs in front of them, you might notice something missing.
Many homes for sale used to have a mailbox-like tube right next to the sign. Inside that tube were paper fliers that you could pull out and read about the price and all of the details of the house you're standing in front of.
Not anymore.
"The tube is permanently empty now," said Valley Real Estate expert Dean Wegner. "A typical flier would have 3 to 5 photos at best. Now you can go online and look at a single-page website for that listing, and it will have between 20 and 30 pictures of that property."
The tubes were a real pain for real estate agents.
"Gas, driving out to properties, the empty tube, the maintenance. Realtors never enjoyed having those out there," said Wegner. "But it was a must on every listing. You had to have fliers out front."
He says that home buyers are more used to checking out properties on the internet. Because of that, more Realtors have decided to go "paperless."
If you see a For Sale sign and pull over to take a look at a house, have your smart phone with you. That's because there's an app that can tell you all about the house.
"The Realtor.com [app] is free, and it's unbelievable what it can do," Wegner said. "You can stand in front of a property. It will GPS. It will pull it right up, and tell you the price, the square footage, the year it was built, the property taxes, and it will have 20 or 30 full color pictures of that property."
We saw a two story house for sale near 32nd Street and Union Hills in north Phoenix, but couldn't find it on the Realtor.com app. It turns out the house was no longer for sale.
We called the Realtor, who confirmed that the house had already been sold for $240,000 dollars. That is $72,000 less than its estimated value on Zillow.
The Realtor told us her sign is still up in the yard because the new owner is about to put the house up for sale again.
This time, the asking price will be $335,000.

Remember When…Snooki was SnookiPosted: April 7, 2014 Filed under: News, Remember Whens | Tags: jersey shore, Remember When, snooki, Snooki and Deena, Snooki pregnant, Snooks Leave a comment
Well, it looks like the party is officially over. Just 19 months after birthing her first child Lorenzo, Snooki…I mean Nicole Polizzi has announced she is with child number 2.
Snooks announced her pregnancy via her website, saying "Jionni and I are so excited to confirm that we are expecting our second child! Now knowing that our test results are good and our baby is healthy, we can finally talk about it!"
This is the third and final nail in the coffin that was Snooki. The first nail was getting pregs with baby number 1. The second nail was Snooki's announcement that she didn't want to be called Snooki anymore. Ugh. The third nail is this second pregnancy announcement. Things will never be the same. I'm heartbroken.
I know I should be happy for Snooks and Jionni, but I miss the old Snooki who wondered "where's the beach?" and drank until her legs wouldn't work. Am I the only one that misses those days?! So with this post, I would like to relive the good ole' Snooki days.
Where's the Beach?!
Let's be honest, who hasn't been on the boardwalk and wondered where the beach was? I think the best part of this scene was that even though JWow and Deena finally caught up with Snooks, she still managed to slip out of their grasp and face plant into the sand.
I'm just glad that one time I was looking for the beach wasn't caught on film.
The Meaning of True Friendship
Who remembers when the meatballs roamed the Shore? I will never forget Snooki and her bestie Deena cruising for dudes and drinking booze. I mean, what else is there to do when you're on vacation?
- "It's only, like, Jersey girls that can dance so hard their underwears come off." – Deena
- "Everybody Google it. Because that's why the water is salty. From the f**king whale sperm." – Snooki
- "I just didn't want my cuca to come out." – Snooki
- "Doing eyelashes when you're buzzed is not a good time." – Deena
Putting Fashion Above All
Remember back in Miami when Snooki bought these sweet shades? She was so committed to fashion that she would rather be blind than look like a fool. "The glasses are pretty much all crystalled out, all bling-bling, but when you put them on you can't really see. . . so I don't think you can't drive with them. . . because you'll get a ticket," said Snooki. Who wants to bet she tried to drive with these on?
Snooki, I understand you're a grown up and have a family, but can't you let loose a few times a year (and let MTV film it)? I mean, who is going to teach me what to wear and new ways to refer to my cuca?
There are many, many more classic Snooki moments, please share your favs!
Remember When…Posted: March 15, 2012 Filed under: Remember Whens | Tags: Italy, jersey shore, Jionni, mtv, Nicole Polizzi, pregnant, snooki, snookin for love Leave a comment
Snooki was drunk all the time
So I'll say it…I'm not entirely happy that Snooki is with child. I'm sorry, but I can't hide my feelings any longer. I spent a majority of last weekend watching the "Jersey Shore" marathon on the TV and appreciated the fact that Snooki would drink until she fell over. It's harder than you think…it's a full-time job. During these benders, Snooki taught me how to Snook for love for goodness sakes! I think I'm crying.
Even though Snooki is engaged to Jionni and the happy couple is expecting a baby…I wanted to share some of my favise Snooki moments and reminisce on the good times.
Free Snooki
Remember when Snooki couldn't find the beach?
Injured Snooki
Remember when Snooki and Deena were cruising in Italy and Snooki slammed into a police car?
Hamster Snooki
Remember when MTV constructed a life-sized hamster ball and plopped Snooki inside? What a way to ring in 2011.
Typically, I would address Snooki with a sassy comment at this point, but I can't sass a pregnant woman…I do have some morals. So this one goes out to Deena. Girl if you need someone to hit up the bar or club with you…I'm available day or night.
Snooki with child? Hell has frozen overPosted: February 29, 2012 Filed under: Celebrity Babies | Tags: jersey shore, Jionni LaValle, Mama Snooks, mtv, Nicole Polizzi, Pregnancy, snooki, Snooki and JWoww vs. The World, Snooki pregnant, Us Weekly Leave a comment
Boy oh boy or should I say boy or girl?
This week is filled with a lot of baby news and the rumor mill is running on high with reports that Snooki is pregnant. Like me, you might need a moment or seven to digest that.
Snooki, 24 is allegedly three to four months pregnant…the father is Jionni LaValle, Snooki's current bf who makes the occasional cameo on the "Jersey Shore."
Mama Snooks is said to be shopping her pregnancy story around to all the mags. Rumor has it Us Weekly picked up the story and if it's true…we'll be seeing Snooks, the woman with a constant blood alcohol level, on the cover in the classic pregnancy pose.
Snooki hasn't commented on this vital matter…neither has her rep.
What an interesting turn of events Snooki and JWoww's spinoff show "Snooki and JWoww vs. The World" could take if this news is true. Instead of shopping for booze, they could be shopping for baby things…ugh.
Photo of the DayPosted: February 1, 2012 Filed under: Photo of the Day | Tags: Jersday, jersey shore, Michael Sorrentino, mtv, Nicole Polizzi, photo of the day, Situation, snooki Leave a comment
Hi, my name is Kari and I watch the "Jersey Shore." I love it…so much so that I incorporate such words/phrases into my vernacular:
- "I know I'm not the smartest crayon… but we can make a party"
- "Let's get wasty-pants"
- "Where's the beach?" (Say while screaming at top of lungs)
- "I wanna go to the gymmm"
In preparation of Jersday…I discovered a photo to make you giggle like a fool:
Bahahahahhaha…guess whooooo? Yes, It is Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. He looks like such a gentleman here. But I know better…I read the gospel of Snooki:
Snooki on Mike: "That's what you get for being a fucking douchebag."
How does a man go from a bow tie to this:
Dear Mike, Stop shaving the sides of your head! Along with that, stop being a fucking douchebag. Love, Kari
Is this real life?Posted: August 22, 2011 Filed under: Music | Tags: about us, brooke hogan, grill, i kissed a girl, Katy Perry, music, paul wall, snooki Leave a comment
Happy Monday! I thought I would start off the week by sharing some tunes from the past. I have a few other jams that I want to share with you and didn't want to overwhelm, so I will be continuing this post later on! Okay, let's do this.
There are tons and tons of people who try to break into the music industry and it could end up taking years before they finally get noticed. A pertinent example: Katy Perry, she signed with four labels before "I Kissed a Girl" floated to our ears. While some of these aspiring musicians 100% deserve a record deal, there are some that should try another career path…please.
Brooke Hogan – "About Us"
For some strange reason, I was reminded of Brooke Hogan's single "About Us" that the wanna be singer released in 2006. Hulk Hogan must have really put a lot of people in headlocks because this song featured Paul Wall. Maybe this jam is the reason that Lil' Weezy didn't sign the Houston rapper to Young Money Records…just a thought.
Now I won't lie to you, I know the chorus by heart and if this song came on at the bar, I would be on that dance floor in the blink of an eye. I love this song because it's so catchy and Brooke is rockin' the shades with bedazzled lenses way before Snooki ever put them on (yes, I just took Snooki's name in vain). Some highlights from the music video:
- Brooke is singing with a grill in her mouth. That is some serious skill…remember when grills were cool?
- Boxer by day, dancer by night….end of the video cumulates with a DANCE OFF! Side note: I'm still trying to convince my friends to learn a choreographed dance that we can bust out at the club. Since that isn't going as well as planned, I am in the process of taking applications!
- Not only does Brooke win the DANCE OFF! Brooke gets to take Paul Wall home…jealous.
Favises lyrics:
"I'm just trying to live but your all up in my grill/How's a girl to breathe with all the media starring down my mouth/With a four inch lens I just wanna hit the mall with some of my friends" (Don't we all want to just go to the mall, Brooke?)
Even though "About Us" peaked at #33 on the Billboard Hot 100, not everyone who has heard this song feels the same as me. Her music career sorta floundered and now I haven't heard anything from Brooke that doesn't involve her parent's divorce or her mom's creepy cougar ways.
Brooke – In the words of Mean Girl's Kevin G …Don't let the hataz stop you from doin' ya thang!
Celebrity Top 3Posted: July 4, 2011 Filed under: Celebrity Top 3 | Tags: Arnold Schwarzenegger, divorce, free, house arrest, Lindsay Lohan, maria shriver, snooki, The Jersey Shore, Vinny Leave a comment
Sorry for the delay in posting! Don't worry, I haven't abandoned you. Here we go!
Hold onto your pants…Lohan is at large
After she plead no contest to allegedly stealing a necklace, Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to some "me" time. By the skin of her teeth Lohan weaseled her way out of shacking up in a real prison and got to spend her days at home.
Well Jesus has shined his light on Lohan and has set her free. After serving 35 days on house arrest, Caddy Heron is a free woman.
While at home, Lindsay did some high quality advertising for www.beezid.com and The National Inflation group. Now she is celebrating her freedom, turning 25 and just being Lindsay.
We want to see you out and about not trapped inside like a caged animal. Keep it together Lohan!
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver…sad face
Always looking like a solid couple, Maria Shriver has decided to file for divorce from Govenorator Arnold. After 25 years together, 4 children and a love child…Maria has had enough. Let's be real…she's doing the right thing. No one demeans Maria and gets away with it.
Here is what I have to say. Maria, take a page out of Carrie Underwood's book and dig your key into his car and/or smash a baseball bat into the headlights…it will feel better.
Come back Vinny…come back
It has been reported that the love of Snooki's life has left "The Jersey Shore." (Gasp!) While the shore crew just returned from Italy for season 4, they immediately jumped into filming season 5 in Seaside Heights. That constant partying can take its toll…trust me.
One of the reasons that Vinny may or may not have left the show was because of homesickness. Being away from your family for that long is not fun, but for the money they are raking in, it's worth it.
With this news, two very important questions come to mind: 1. What will happen to MVP…will it just be MP?
2. Will there still be a special MTV special titled, "Snooki and Vinny…A Love Story?" A girl can only hope.
Hottest Hot MessesPosted: June 21, 2011 Filed under: Hot Mess | Tags: American Pie, amy winehouse, comeback, hot mess, Italy, jersey shore, losing tooth, rehab, snooki, Tara Reid Leave a comment
Amy Winehouse
Oh Amy! What else can we say about her? Recently, Winehouse had scheduled a 12 stop European tour that was supposed to begin her comeback. Well it looks like those comeback dreams have quickly died. She has recently canceled the comeback that was supposed to end all comeback.Why did Winehouse put a stop to her tour? I believe it has something to do with the fact that she was booed off stage in Serbia last Sa. According to the LA Times, she was booed for "flubbing lyrics, yelling at her band and leaving long gaps of silence during numbers."
Amy, take some tips from B. Spears. Her weave is on point, meds are regulated and shes got a great album!
Where did that singer with the tons of Grammy nominations go? I guess they should make her go back to rehab.
If you have ever watched "The Jersey Shore" you know that Snooki is a hot mess. From getting arrested for being extremely drunk on the beach, showing her whoo-haa pretty much daily and her drunk dials on the duck phone, the evidence is there for all to see.
Regardless of being a hot mess, she is one lovable hot mess. Snooki truly cares about her Jersey Shore family and we love her for that.
We already know of one hilarious moment from this upcoming season …Snooki crashing into an Italian officers car. Hey, she got to keep her license…point Snooki. Get ready for Season 4 of the Shore! The gang is off to Italy and it is sure to be full of ridiculousness and hilarious moments.
Stay strong Team Snooki !
Tara Reid
Going from teenage dream to plain hot mess, we all know Tara Reid and her numerous hot mess occurrences. She had a pretty popping career in the beginning. Remember when she made appearances in "Urban Legend," "Cruel Intentions" and "American Pie?"
I thought Miss Reid was going to graduate from teen comedy movies to more adult roles. I guess when you allegedly lose a front tooth at a party then get on the ground and search for it and then proceed to glue it back in…you have graduated to a hot mess.
While Reid denies this ever happened, it made me wonder how rumors such as this begin. I understand how rumors of a celebrity hooking up with someone starts, but losing a tooth! Let's be real.

riding the wave
By enelson
Friday, June 20th, 2008 at 10:40 pm in BART, Bridges, Buses, Caltrain, driving, Environment, Fare systems, fuel, Funding, global warming, rail, tolls, Transit vs. driving.
This week was a disharmonious convergence of most things I love about transportation in the Bay Area.
There was Spare the Air, which refused to be discredited as it died with a "yee-ha!" yesterday, racking up nearly 400,000 BART rides in one day, which happened to be the day after I blogged about what a futile gesture the final day of "Spare the Air" free transit was going to be.
As I watch the glare of the lights over the Coliseum, I can safely assume that more A's fans will take BART home than in any previous year. No matter how much they complain about fares, they know that gas is more expensive. There may even be one or two fans who have already seen their personal scales tip in favor of selling their only car and relying on transit and rental cars.
BART spokesman Linton "Honest" Johnson told me the Spare-the-Air triumph was a "double-edged sword.
"Because you realize that more people who are looking for more alternatives to driving, but you also realize that you have a governor who is proposing to take up to $15 million dollars away from BART … I don't see how he can be the `green governor' if he keeps taking away money for transit."
I started my week noticing that my chain of newspapers had joined a still faint but growing chorus of Californians who don't think that the state's currently configured high-speed rail enterprise is sliced bread. I found it slightly disturbing to see information from one of my stories bolstering the conclusion that the 700-mile, 200-plus-mph system was the "Boondoggle Express."
But the story was based on the release of a report by a Senate committee last week that raised all kinds of unanswered questions, the same ones I've been raising and catching flak for. The proponents of HSR were ready at the barricades, however, and I was treated to an amazing off-the-record character assassination to bolster their case.
The sad thing was that it wasn't the only example of that I got to hear within a few days, and that was also disturbing. The other one had to do with the Caldecott Tunnel, and the less said about that the better.
On Tuesday, there was TransLink, now that we're talking about expensive, drawn-out processes. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission is giving out 1,900 of the data chip cards to residents of transit-oriented developments, or at least apartment buildings on bus routes, which seemed to strain the definition a bit.
I also questioned whether giving the passes out at senior homes, one of which hosted the press conference, would win over that many converts to transit. The last time I checked, transportation officials and advocates up and down the East Bay were telling me that our older residents are often transit-dependent. Not that they shouldn't have every advantage when it comes to transit, but I'm thinking giving BART passes to yuppies in loft conversions might go a bit further toward your basic TOD/transit symbiosis.
I also discovered that the long-awaited arrival of TransLink on BART, Muni and Caltrain, thus making it widely relevant, is not happening this spring. "This year," I was told.
All these fine programs to get people out of their cars. TODs, free transit, cheap transit. One of you suggested that rather than free transit, we could really get people out of their cars by doubling bridge tolls. My thought was that we've already doubled the toll on every bridge, highway and cul-de-sac.

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Saturday, September 29, 3:30 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Kenan Memorial Stadium (63,000) -- Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Television: Raycom Sports. Home Record: Idaho 0-2, UNC 2-0. Away Record: Idaho 0-2, UNC 0-2. Neutral Record: Idaho 0-0, UNC 0-0. Conference Record: Idaho 0-0, UNC 0-1. Series Record: First-ever meeting.
GAME NOTES: The Idaho Vandals will attempt to steal one on the road when they take on the North Carolina Tar Heels in a non-conference matchup at Kenan Memorial Stadium.
Idaho fell to 0-4 and lost its seventh game in a row dating back to last season last week, as it fell 40-37 in an overtime thriller against Wyoming. The Vandals opened up the season with defeats to Eastern Washington, Bowling Green, and LSU. Despite another dissatisfying result, last week's loss to the Cowboys was by far the best overall performance by Idaho. Coach Robb Akey is now in his sixth season at the helm of the program.
This will be the final non-conference game for UNC before it travels into the heart of its ACC schedule. The Tar Heels are 2-2 after last week's easy, 27-6 win over instate rival East Carolina. UNC won its only other home game, the season opener versus Elon, 62-0, however it lost its next two games on the road to Wake Forest (28-27) and Louisville (39-34). Coach Larry Fedora built Southern Miss into a feared mid-major program prior to taking over UNC's program this season. His career record coming into Saturday is 36-21.
The Vandals offense is gaining steam with Dominique Blackman under center. Since missing the season opener for a violation of team rules, the junior quarterback has thrown for 847 yards and six touchdowns with five interceptions. Blackman is ranked ninth nationally with a 73.1 completion percentage.
Running back Najee Lovett and wideout Jahrie Level are Idaho's leading receivers through four games with totals of 227 and 206 yards, respectively. Mike Scott is also becoming a consistent target, as he reeled in eight passes for 84 yards and a score in last week's loss to Wyoming.
Although the Vandals' aerial attack is steadily becoming more effective, its rushing attack is one of the worst in the FBS with an average of 84 yards per game. Ryan Bass showed he might be the answer to the team's problems last week as he gained 121 yards on 19 carries to keep the opposition honest.
Idaho's defense has not done anything to give its opponents a reason to worry coming into this one. The Vandals have given up a combined 103 points in their last two outings and have allowed an average of 428 total offensive yards per game through four games.
Benson Mayowa is a key player with three solo sacks, as is Gary Walker, who leads the team with 31 total tackles.
Much like its opponent, UNC relies heavily on passing for its offensive production. It is ranked 19th in the FBS with an average of 309 passing yards per contest.
The Tar Heels' aerial attack is captained by Bryn Renner, who has already thrown for 1,191 yards and 11 scores with three picks. Renner is coming off of his best performance of the season as he threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns without an interception on 27-of-43 passing in last week's win over the Pirates.
Renner's job is made much easier by the countless weapons he has at his disposal. Erik Highsmith, Eric Ebron, Sean Tapley, and Romar Morris are all capable of producing big receiving games on any given Saturday. Highsmith has tallied a team-best 243 yards, while Ebron is a scoring threat with three touchdowns.
The rushing attack has been slowed down by an injury to its feature back, Giovani Bernard. UNC had its sophomore tailback back last week and he gained 59 yards and a score on 18 carries to help the Tar Heels get past ECU in his return. The touchdown was the 19th of his young career.
Although UNC is solid against opposing rushing attacks, that will not matter much versus the pass friendly Vandals. Luckily for the home team, the Tar Heels are allowing a reasonable average 223.3 yards per game through the air.
UNC's aggressive defense should cause big problems for Idaho's offensive line. It leads the ACC in sacks (3.25) and tackles for loss (9.3) per contest.
Although Idaho is showing steady development with Blackman under center, it is far from being capable of upsetting a decent BCS team on the road. The Vandals will need to deliver a phenomenal performance to avoid being blown out in this one.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: North Carolina 41, Idaho 20

|Atlanta Folk Music Club, 1102 West Peachtree St. NW
tarted in 1965 as an Italian restaurant by Bill Remington and Tom Hayward, The Bistro soon discovered that the "folk singers" drew considerably more customers than the food.
"We yanked anyone in (off the streets) that could play more than three chords on a guitar" Hayward remembers. "Then we discovered gold by booking Ray Whitley" (a local songwriter who had composed "Run, Run, Look And See" for Brian Hyland, then four or five smash hits for the Tams including: "I've Been Hurt", "You Lied To Your Daddy" and "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy".)
After buying out Bill Remington in 1967, Hayward set about making the sound system "state of the art" for that era. Entertainers loved the room because it was run like a theater with excessive talking being discouraged.
In 1968, the Bistro participated in local television Channel 11 changing their call letters to WQXI-TV by presenting a "live" 3-1/2 hour music and comedy special entitled: "Atlanta Swings-68'. The Bistro supplied several local musical artists plus TV star Pat Paulsen from the "Smothers Brothers Show".
That same year an Augusta Georgia Bistro was franchised to Jim Duffy and Dave Partain. Using the circuit performers already being booked by Hayward into The Raven Gallery in Detroit, The Flick in Miami and The Red Horse Inn in Louisiana.
By the middle of 1969, one of the Bistro's close friends, Bill "Oliver" Swofford had a #1 hit with "Good Morning Starshine" a song from "Hair" by Rado, Ragne and McDerrmott. Out of kindness and personal friendship, Bill asked to appear at the Bistro for a full week and created lines of more than a hundred people around the block. "It was the first time we ever had to suggest that people leave so others could get in to see the next show."
Over the next five years the Bistro was extremely fortunate to start many musicians on their way to stardom and host already famous artists looking for attentive audiences.
Rumors persisted over the years about the upstairs of the club being haunted by a spirit affectionately named "Rachael". Whether the late night noises were caused by pigeons in the attic or genuine poltergeists, many artists refused to sleep on premises and at least one seance was held by John D. Loudermilk (composer of Tobacco Road).

Roy Huggins
Show Creator/ Producer/ Director
"I did some things that were widely imitated. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. That was flattering to me. 'Maverick' was imitated, 'The Fugitive' was imitated. I did all right. I had a great time."
About This Interview
In his five-hour Archive interview, Roy Huggins (1914-2002) vividly recalls what it was like to work at Warner Brothers, the first Hollywood studio to go into regular TV series production.

The New York Islanders may have adopted the right attitude as of this moment, shrugging off a bad season with no hope of making the playoffs and accepting their fate early, having a little fun and not being focused on winning. It showed, as the Islanders bested Ottawa for a 4-3 win in a shootout last night, with a severely injured Ottawa lineup taking a beating in more ways than one. With Alfre...

Some Puck Luck
Posted on 17 Dec 2010 by Mika Oehling.
The Ottawa Senators finally got some puck luck last night in their 3-1 win over the Minnesota Wild, which is sure to be a morale-booster as December rolls on. After a great effort against Atlanta that didn't produce a win, Ottawa found a way to overcome that bittersweet defeat and keep rolling. They fought hard and were quick on the puck and they finally got what they deserved: a clear, decis...

With the UK preparing to vote for a new national government on 5 May, New Scientist asked the three main political parties to give their positions on 10 key scientific questions.
The nation's next government will be faced with complex, fast moving and highly controversial scientific issues over the next four years, including climate change, nanotechnology, animal experimentation, a potential flu pandemic and an "anti-science culture".
New Scientist put the questions to the Labour government's science minister, Lord David Sainsbury, the Conservative spokesman Robert Key and the Liberal Democrat spokesman Evan Harris.
Click on the questions below to see each party's answer
1. If elected, how would your party counter the fear and uncertainty many people in the UK feel about issues such as nanotechnology, cloning and genetic engineering?
2. Do you agree with the Labour government's chief scientist David King when he says "climate change is a bigger threat than terrorism"?
3. The pharmaceutical industry has been accused of concealing the results of unflattering clinical trials. How do you propose to ensure they disclose all results?
4. If a flu pandemic were to occur, how would you decide who gets the tiny amount of antiviral drugs currently stockpiled?
5. Given the huge UK public backing for the Beagle 2 probe, would you commit to further space missions that are risky but have a potentially high scientific pay-off?
6. Under what circumstances would you lift the current UK moratorium on genetically engineered crops?
7. Nuclear power offers an alternative to carbon emissions but generates radioactive waste. Which method of long-term disposal does your party favour?
8. After 1 April 2005, children born from donated sperm and eggs in the UK will have the right to trace their biological parents. Should donors be allowed to remain anonymous?
9. Animal rights extremists forced plans for a major primate research centre in Cambridge, UK, to be cancelled in 2004. How would you preserve animal rights whilst also protecting scientists involved in such research?
10. The number of students studying science at degree level, particularly subjects like physics and chemistry, is worryingly low in the UK. What would your party do to address this?
1. If elected, how would your party counter the fear and uncertainty many people in the UK feel about issues such as nanotechnology, cloning and genetic engineering?
David Sainsbury (Labour)
The British people, overall, have a positive view of the benefits of science but they are concerned about the speed of development in science and whether the Government is in control of the situation.
In response to this concern, we are beginning to engage people at an early stage in a dialogue with scientists about whether new developments in science and technology raise any ethical, health, safety or environmental concerns and whether, therefore, they require regulatory changes. We have doubled the budget for the Science and Society initiative to over £9 million per year by 2006.
Robert Key (Conservative)
Britain now suffers from an anti-science culture. Both the government and scientists have lost the initiative to unaccountable pressure groups and lobbies. The public is confused.
In the long term we must improve science education through all our schools. In the short to medium term the Government must reverse its current policy of centralisation and give more independence to research councils. We will also consider giving more independence to science funding partners and reducing government secrecy and control.
Evan Harris (Liberal Democrat)
We would be far more proactive. Political opinion leaders should say that there is huge potential for this technology and that those lobby groups that produce scare stories have a huge vested interest in doing so. The government's been far too slow in promoting the advantages of these things.
2. Do you agree with the Labour government's chief scientist David King when he says "climate change is a bigger threat than terrorism"?
David Sainsbury (Labour)
Yes. If, in the long term, we do not manage to solve the problem of climate change, it will dwarf problems such as terrorism. That is why we are fully signed up the Kyoto Protocol and why climate change will be one of the major themes of our G8 presidency.
Robert Key (Conservative)
Climate change threatens our planet. Terrorism threatens humanity. The evidence is now overwhelming that mankind is accelerating global warming and climate change. The Conservatives are committed not just to Kyoto but to an agenda that looks beyond it. If we are to create a sustainable, low-carbon economy and conserve our environment and biodiversity, we must base our decisions not on prejudice and fear but on good science.
Evan Harris (Liberal Democrat)
Yes. It's a bigger threat to world stability and it's depressing that we hear so little from the other parties on this issue.

The excellent regulatory environment, ageing population, preference for patented medicines and encouraging macroeconomic growth prospects will provide stable revenue-generating opportunities for multinational pharmaceutical companies. However, the pharmaceutical industry will be a target for further cost-containment policies and experience more price erosions and generic competition.
Headline Expenditure Projections:
- Pharmaceuticals: EUR2.92bn (US$3.70bn) in 2012 to EUR2.96bn (US$3.94bn) in 2013;+1.7% in local currency terms and +6.5% in US dollar terms. Forecast upwardly revised in light of the more promising macroeconomic forecast.
- Healthcare: EUR17.00bn (US$21.58bn) in 2012 to EUR17.47bn (US$23.24bn) in 2013; +2.8% in local currency terms and +7.7% in US dollar terms. Forecast broadly unchanged from Q413.

Kind Ready For Lame-Duck Session Of Congress
Are we in too much of a panic about that 'fiscal cliff'?
Congressman Ron Kind certainly is worried about the need to settle certain spending and tax matters before the start of the new year. But Kind says some solutions can wait a little longer. Democrat Kind says the economic fixes that are needed will be unpopular with people from both parties. Congress goes back into session on Tuesday, for the first time since the election.

|calendar>> March 21. 2014 Juche 103
Kim Jong Un Praised by Korean in Russia
| Pyongyang, March 21 (KCNA) -- Jang Sun Jong, chairperson of the Central Association of Korean Nationals in Russia, expressed great emotion and joy at the news that supreme leader Kim Jong Un was elected a deputy to the Supreme People's Assembly (SPA) of the DPRK.
Jang said:
The news that Kim Jong Un was elected a deputy to the SPA of the DPRK delighted Koreans in Russia. This is an expression of the absolute trust of all the people across the country in Kim Jong Un and an reflection of the firm faith and will of all the service personnel of the Korean People's Army and people to accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche under his leadership.
As they are led by him, the dignity and spirit of the nation have been put on the highest level, the DPRK is making a leap forward with dynamism and a great surge is being brought about in the drive for building a thriving socialist nation.
Seeing the DPRK firmly standing against the U.S., Koreans in Russia are admiring the grit, pluck and outstanding strategy of Kim Jong Un and are convinced that the country would be reunified before long.
The Koreans in Russia will in the future, too, firmly believe and follow only Kim Jong Un and make all efforts to bring earlier the day of national reunification under his leadership, just as they held and followed the great Generalissimos Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il invariably with one mind as the leaders of the nation.

kind of sea snail, 1520s, apparently an alteration of Old English pinewincle (probably by influence of Middle English parvink; see periwinkle (n.1)); from Old English pine-, which probably is from Latin pina "mussel," from Greek pine.

20 Apr - Mowing the lawn
RRS James Clark Ross Diary
Noon Position: 50° 01.4 S, 53° 47.4 W)
Distance Travelled since Grimsby: 33506.5 Nautical Miles
Air temperature @ Noon today: 7.3°C
Sea temperature @ Noon today : 6.5°C
Weather: Moderate, SE, 8, 979.5
Mowing the lawn
During the previous seven months of this season we have probably had three days that one would consider as 'rough'. We have probably exceeded that total in the last week alone. The reason is a large low pressure system that has unfortunately settled over the JCR, whipping up the seas in a large swell. Below are a couple of images that show the weather system above us. First is the Dartcom satellite image showing the clouds being whipped round into an anticlockwise circle as we slowly plunged back towards Stanley on Sunday evening. Second is the pressure chart showing the isobars in the South Atlantic. The closer the isobars are together the stronger the wind. The small flags point the direction of the wind and the number of bars on each arrow represent the wind speed.
What does it mean? It means we have a few sleepless nights as the ship rolls and pitches in the heavy seas. We end up with lots of broken glasses in the bar. The galley is decimated by utensils and food flying around. Papers end up on the floor. Chairs move around with you sitting in them. Any work becomes a struggle. Everyone becomes tired and irritable. People are physically tired from constantly fighting to keep your posture even when sitting or lying down not to mention lack of sleep. The swath doesn't work when it gets really rough so science stops. We alter course to minimize any rolling and keep steering into the storm to make the ship pitch rather than roll. The picture below doesn't do the storm any justice but gives an idea of how dark and how much the ship is pitching. Everyone is looking forward to getting back to Stanley tomorrow to have a rest.
Onboard the JCR in a storm

The engineers new clothes
These are strange times down in the engineering control room. The motor men have been seen modelling the latest fashion in survival suits. Are they worried about the stormy weather and are preparing for the worst or are they preparing for a fancy dress party? Are they a new style of insulated boiler suit with built in gloves? Charlie and Mark were clearly enjoying their dressing up and also provided much amusement to the rest of the engineers. Our BAS fashion advisors pointed out that the suits clashed badly with the low impact pea green control room. Time to repaint?
The science team departs
Tomorrow we say goodbye to the scientists from our current cruise. PSO, Lindsay Parson, and his team have spent a couple of weeks surveying the seabed using the JCR's swath bathymetry. Lindsay and Jez study their charts below and with the rest of the team on the aft deck. Right to left, Johnny, Steve, Sophie, Lindsay, Rose, Doug, Alan and Jez. Click the images to enlarge them.
The cruise has apparently been very successful despite all the bad weather that they brought with them. (Sailors are a very superstitious bunch and if they can blame misfortune on someone or something they will. Whistling is frowned upon on the ship as this is thought to 'whistle up the wind'. Good in the doldrums but not in the Drake Passage! Clearly this is based on well designed double blinded randomized controlled trials run by sailors in the 18th century as they went round Cape Horn. Was one of Lindsay's team a secret whistler!?!)
Hot Cross Buns
This weekend being Easter and all that, one of the FIDs decided to get into the spirit of the occasion with a festive haircut. Speculation abounds whether he is
a trying to communicate with aliens,
b wants a saltaire on his head but can't find blue hair dye in Stanley,
c part of a religious sect that believes in deliverance through human sized games of noughts and crosses
d the victim of a practical joke
e trying to plead insanity and be sectioned back to the UK,
f protesting that the ships hot buns were not crossed!
Answers on a postcard as to who the mystery man is and why!
Thankyou this week: to Richard and everyone in the galley for all their hard work in difficult circumstances.
Coming up next week: Stanley tomorrow until Wednesday then back out for more science

The Harvard Civil Rights Project recently reported that though the American school system is becoming more diverse, ethnic groups remain isolated - 70 percent of African American students attend predominantly minority schools; whites on average attend schools where more than 80 percent of the student body is white. Is this a harmful situation for the future of race relations in the U.S.?
Robert Woodson's Response:
Proximity to those of other races does not determine whether a person will or will not be fair-minded. I find it interesting that at the very institutions where professors decry the separation of races encourage it through black studies programs, black dorms, etc., in which the students become increasingly isolated.
Hugh Price's Rebuttal:
Proximity enables people to practice and learn tolerance. I'm convinced that America has made so much progress in race relations because college campuses, public agencies, corporate workplaces and public accommodations are vastly more open and integrated than they were a generation ago. Racial tensions often arise these days in workplace settings where employees of all races who have high school degrees or less encounter one another for the first time. K-12 education in this country is very segregated. Young people emerging from high school often have had little exposure to peers of other races, much less much practice learning to work together. So I'd argue that the interracial interaction that comes with integration is educationally sound and promotes economic productivity.
Hugh Price's Response:
I firmly believe that integrated education is good for African Americans and good for all Americans. The evidence substantiates this. Plus, in an increasingly diverse society, school is one of the best places where we can begin to learn to live and work together, share space and opportunity together. That's essential if our society is going to work. The reality, though, is that many school systems are demographically land-locked, if you will. Since the federal courts are less and less inclined to force busing across district boundaries, there is less political will and legal muscle to engineer integration. If the government gave low-income housing vouchers or housing tax credits that enabled them to move to other communities, chances are more children would experience integration. The difficulty of realizing school integration in this day and age is the reason for the heightened focus on making certain all children receive a first-class education wherever they go to school. For children educated in racially isolated settings, learning to live and work together may have to wait until they enter college or the workplace.
Robert Woodson's Rebuttal:
I do not believe that integration of schools should be a goal in itself. Our focus must be on making certain that all children receive a first-class education.
