Hunter Hayes Contributing to Elton John Tribute Album 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road'
Hunter Hayes may only be 22, but he's caught the eye of Elton John, and finished up the title track track for the legend's forthcoming tribute album.
Hunter Hayes may only be 22, but he's caught the eye of Elton John, and finished up the title track track for the legend's forthcoming tribute album.
For her final show of the American leg of the 2013 Red Tour -- and the third night of a sold-out trio of concerts at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville -- Taylor Swift wanted 'Crazy,' and she got it.
Kellie Pickler's latest video sets a record with a 10th straight win, but a new challenger to her crown has emerged. Scotty McCreery made an impressive debut with the 'See You Tonight' video; will his fans have what it takes to make the clip No. 1 this week?
It's been 12 years since two planes hit the World Trade Center towers in New York City and a third crashed into the Pentagon in Washington D.C. Today, on 9/11, country stars like Josh Turner, Trisha Yearwood and Rodney Atkins are united in taking a moment to remember the victims of those terrorist attacks, as well as those who died when a hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania.
One can't blame the casual country music fan for looking at the nomination leaders for the 2013 CMA Awards and asking, "Who?"
Newcomer Danielle Bradery was put on the spot about her love life recently. During an interview with Taste of Country Nights Radio host Jeremy Robinson, 'The Voice' winner spilled her celebrity crush ... although she tried hard to keep it a secret.
Every light in the house was on Platinum-selling singer Trace Adkins on Friday (Aug. 23) as he celebrated his 10th anniversary as a member of the Grand Ole Opry.
Ashley Monroe and Hunter Hayes took over New York City's Webster Hall earlier this summer, and a recently-released video of her song 'You Got Me' shows the singer-songwriter has no problem keeping the headliner's younger fans entertained.
Hunter Hayes' duet with Jason Mraz is his fifth single release from his self-titled debut album and its repackaging. But 'Everybody's Got Somebody But Me' still manages to show something new to those who haven't bought it. It's a change of pace from the heavy ballads and the more intense country-rocker 'I Want Crazy.' This is the most fun he's been since 'Storm Warning.'
Taylor Swift and her tourmate Ed Sheeran are like two peas in a pod. They co-wrote the hit song 'Everything Has Changed,' share the 2013 Red Tour stage and hang out in their spare time. Now, they may share one more thing -- a taste for country music -- as Sheeran has admitted he's considered going country.
Are you ready to be 'Blown Away?'
'Blown Away' is the title of latest album and tour from Carrie Underwood and she was spot on with both.
Why should you pick up "The Blown Away Tour: LIVE" DVD? I've got a few great reasons below.
Danielle Bradbery, winner of Season 4 of 'The Voice,' has had a whirlwind life since taking the title in June. She performed with Hunter Hayes, who also gifted her with a guitar. She was signed to Big Machine. She is currently promoting her first single. On top of it all, she also got to meet one of her idols and her labelmate – Taylor Swift.

Models for Reformation: Martin Niemöller, The Resistance (1892-1984)
By Jay Rogers
Published March 31, 2008
Martin Niemöller had been a World War I hero as a German naval lieutenant and U-boat commander. He was ordained as a Lutheran pastor in 1924. One of the earliest Protestant critics of Nazism, he and a few brave Lutherans formed a resistance movement called the "Confessional Church" of about 3,000 pastors. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, author of The Cost of Discipleship, came into contact with Niemöller when he joined the "Pastor's Emergency League," which was formed under Niemöller.
In The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, William L. Shirer describes the spiritual pattern that led to the mass slaughter of human beings. In the chapter entitled "The Persecution of the Christian Churches," Shirer points to a sterilization law passed in 1933 as the event which began the persecution of Christians and Jews throughout Germany.
"On July 25 [1933], … the German government promulgated a sterilization law, which particularly offended the Catholic Church. Five days later the first steps were taken to dissolve the Catholic Youth League. During the next years, thousands of Catholic priests, nuns and lay leaders were arrested, many of them on trumped up charges of 'immorality' or of 'smuggling foreign currency.'"
Abortion was also made legal during this time. This was the spiritual impetus which brought a revival of human sacrifices being offered to ancient pagan deities – complete with Nazi rituals – to the forefront. The Holocaust was preceded by vast pageants which Hitler used to promote neo-Paganism. Among the various sects of Protestants (most of which had adopted liberal theology and had apostatized in the late 1800s), a new "German Church" was instituted:
"Dr. Reinholdt Krause, the Berlin district leader of the sect, proposed the abandonment of the Old Testament, 'with its tales of cattle merchants and pimps' and the revision of the New Testament with the teaching of Jesus corresponding entirely with the demands of National Socialism. Resolutions were drawn up demanding 'One People, One Reich, One Faith,' requiring all pastors to take an oath of allegiance to Hitler and insisting that all churches institute the Aryan paragraph and exclude converted Jews."
Pastors who resisted the neo-Pagan religion of the Nazis were jailed. Many were eventually led to the gas ovens of the concentration camps. Millions of Jews and Christians were executed. The sad state of the liberal Protestant churches led Germany to this holocaust. Although there were enough evangelical Christian leaders strategically positioned throughout Germany in the 1930s to resist Hitler; only a few stood against him.
"Not many Germans lost much sleep over the arrests of a few thousand pastors and priests or over the quarreling of Protestant sects. And even fewer paused to reflect that under the leadership of Rosenberg, Borman and Himmler, who were backed by Hitler, the Nazi regime intended to destroy Christianity in Germany, if it could, and substitute the old paganism of the early tribal Germanic gods and the new paganism of the Nazi extremists. As Bormann, one of the men closest to Hitler, said in 1941, 'National Socialism and Christianity are irreconcilable.'"
As the methods of oppression by the Nazis grew worse, the resistance movement justified previously unimagined types of disobedience. For Niemöller and the resistance, the plan to assassinate a tyrant was a matter of obedience to God. They reasoned that Hitler was anti-Christ, therefore they decided to join the underground plan to eliminate him. Niemöller remained a key figure in the resistance movement until his arrest and imprisonment. In 1937, Niemöller preached his last sermon in the Third Reich knowing that he was soon to be arrested:
"We have no more thought of using our own powers to escape the arm of authorities than had the Apostles of old. No more are we ready to keep silent at man's behest when God commands us to speak. For it is, and must remain, the case that we must obey God rather than man."
Under orders from Hitler, he was imprisoned and finally transferred to the infamous Dachau concentration camp until the end of the war in 1945. He emerged from his years of detention as a towering symbol of the Church's struggle. In his travels to America, he addressed over two hundred audiences, sometimes with the concluding words that have become famous:
"First, they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me."
Niemöller did much more than speak out, however, as did his friend Dietrich Bonhoeffer. As a consequence, Bonhoeffer lost his life and Niemöller lost eight years of his freedom.

I am so worrried since the election of Obama, President-elect in this country, as I see such a parallel to those early days during the 1923-1927, when the German people went through the Hitler years, setting up the dreaded Schutzstaffle (SS) under the control of Heydrich Himmiler Obama wants to eliminate cuns, next will come the book burning, a civilian security group, with lots of political power; sond familar?
I hope there will be enough of us who remember to bring this to halten before it gets rolling. I am in my 90's so yes I do reme,ber quite vividly, I may add.

The Four Keys to the Millennium (Book)
Foundations in Biblical Eschatology
By Jay Rogers, Larry Waugh, Rodney Stortz, Joseph Meiring. High quality paperback, 167 pages.
All Christians believe that their great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will one day return. Although we cannot know the exact time of His return, what exactly did Jesus mean when he spoke of the signs of His coming (Mat. 24)? How are we to interpret the prophecies in Isaiah regarding the time when "the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea" (Isa. 11:19)? Should we expect a time of great tribulation and apostasy or revival and reformation before the Lord returns? Is the devil bound now, and are the saints reigning with Christ? Did you know that there are four hermeneutical approaches to the book of Daniel and Revelation?
These and many more questions are dealt with by four authors as they present the four views on the millennium. Each view is then critiqued by the other three authors.

The Real Jesus: A Defense of the Historicity and Divinity of Christ (DVD)
Who is the Real Jesus?
Ever since the dawn of modern rationalism, skeptics have sought to use textual criticism, archeology and historical reconstructions to uncover the "historical Jesus" — a wise teacher who said many wonderful things, but fulfilled no prophecies, performed no miracles and certainly did not rise from the dead in triumph over sin.
Over the past 100 years, however, startling discoveries in biblical archeology and scholarship have all but vanquished the faulty assumptions of these doubting modernists. Regrettably, these discoveries have often been ignored by the skeptics as well as by the popular media. As a result, the liberal view still holds sway in universities and impacts the culture and even much of the church.
The Real Jesus explodes the myths of these critics and the movies, books and television programs that have popularized their views. Presented in ten parts — perfect for individual, family and classroom study — viewers will be challenged to go deeper in their knowledge of Christ in order to be able to defend their faith and present the truth to a skeptical modern world – that the Jesus of the Gospels is the Jesus of history — "the same yesterday, today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8). He is the real Jesus.
Speakers include: George Grant, Ted Baehr, Stephen Mansfield, Raymond Ortlund, Phil Kayser, David Lutzweiler, Jay Grimstead, J.P. Holding, and Eric Holmberg.
Ten parts, over two hours of instruction!

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- In a conversation two weeks ago about his future with the Jets, Braylon Edwards was confident he'd make the 53-man roster. He felt he had a strong ally in GM John Idzik, a former Seahawks executive who watched him play last season.
"The talent is there, that's what people need to realize," Edwards told ESPNNewYork.com. "John Idzik was in Seattle. If he saw a diminished player, I don't think he would've brought me here."
As it turned out, Edwards was wrong about Idzik. On Monday, Edwards was released by the Jets -- hardly a surprise, but a move that raises questions. The Jets could've used Edwards' veteran presence at wide receiver, a position filled with durability and maturity concerns. They apparently felt Edwards was expendable with the return of Santonio Holmes, who practiced Monday for the first time on his surgically repaired foot, and the addition of Mohamed Massaquoi.
Let's not put Massaquoi in Canton. Remember, he was released by the Jaguars, a team desperate for wide receivers. There's always a chance the Jets could re-sign Edwards after Week 1, when his salary wouldn't be guaranteed, but that doesn't seem likely -- unless there's an injury. The problem with Edwards is that he doesn't play special teams, and it's hard to justify him as a No. 5 receiver if he's not contributing in the kicking game. That's why the Jets should've made him their No. 4.
Right now, the Jets' depth chart looks like this:
Starters: Holmes, Stephen Hill
Backups: Jeremy Kerley, Clyde Gates
Competing for roster spots: Massaquoi, Ryan Spadola, Ben Obomanu
Camp Confidential: New York Jets

As a person who served the CFL in all aspects of officiating for 37 years (1960-1997), I read with more than considerable interest Rob Vanstone's column of March 28 dealing with possible adjustments to the playing rules. In my opinion, the league must act to improve the instadium presentation of its games as, quite frankly, what we have now can be described in one word: boring. Too many penalties, field goals and reviews.
In his new book, The Conservatarian Manifesto, National Review contributor Charles C.W. Cooke proposes libertarians and conservatives combine their best instincts to "re-establish (the GOP) as the party of liberty" - a party that's "committed to laissez-faire," that's "tolerant of ... how others wish to live their lives," and that's above all committed to local governments running things as their constituents see fit.
Get ready for the impending bone broth boom. A perfect storm is a-brewing.
Novelist Ruth Ozeki's spiritual companion is a Zen master named Dogen. Dead for nearly 800 years, when you listen to Ozeki, you know he's there. Addressing nearly 2,300 Ozeki fans inside a concert hall here, the critically acclaimed novelist talked about Dogen's perception of time. Each day consists of 6,400,099,980 moments, and in the time it takes to snap your finger, 65 moments have passed, the Japanese Zen master wrote in the 13th century.
Often this season as he readied for games, Texas El-Paso centre Matt Willms would study the opposing lineup and come to the realization he wouldn't be the only one flying the Maple Leaf that night.

I do like a good slice of cake. I know there are pie lovers out there, and those who prefer something a little more refined. But, as far as I'm concerned, perfection can be found in a really good piece of cake. (Especially a slice of red velvet or a chocolate layer cake with vanilla icing. But I digress.)
Upon the death of her great aunt Doris Bailey Murphy, Julia Park Tracey inherited a box of journals and I've Got Some Lovin' To Do: The Diaries of a Roaring Twenties Teen 1925-1926 was born. In 2012, Tracey published two years' worth of journal entries, interspersed with photos of Doris, her family and friends, scenery of Portland and Oregon, and pages from the original diaries. The text is true to Doris — all her spelling mistakes, crossed-out words and slang of the time remain, with footnotes to help guide the reader. ASHLEY MARTIN: We chose to read I've Got Some Lovin' To Do after receiving an email from a publicist. It sounded promising — it's the diary of a teenager growing up in the 1920s, and that was an exciting era. Was this book what you expected, Jenn?JENN SHARP: No it wasn't what I expected. Perhaps I was shooting too high with my expectations. I knew the book was based on the diaries of a teenager but had thought it would be written with a more mature voice — my mistake. I found this book incredibly dull and difficult to read. I'll be honest, I didn't make it past page 30. However, the Doris Diaries has a substantial following on social media with over 2,000 likes on Facebook. So obviously it has an appeal and I would love to be enlightened as to what that is exactly.Would you recommend this book?AM: There's a chance I would recommend this book to a very specific audience: Perhaps to someone who was interested in the 1920s geography and history of Portland, where this book was set; or maybe to someone who was asking themselves, "I wonder whether teen girls were as boy crazy back then as they are now." But to anyone else, I would say don't waste your time on this book.I think you could glean a lot more about 1920s American lifestyle by picking up an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. Doris said almost nothing insightful or interesting — there was a time when she got chased down by two drunk men, and there was another time she went horseback riding on a ranch in

Give Way or Yield? The jurisdiction of your contract does matter! (Law note)
Have you ever been to England? If so, you've likely seen their version of our "Yield" sign– the "Give Way" sign. It is a bit jarring to those from this side of the "big pond".
Similarly, contracts can be worded differently– and, interpreted differently– depending on the state that you are in. This is why it is always a good idea to have your contract or proposal vetted for the state(s) where you provide professional services.
When confronted with a "give way" sign you have the general idea of yielding, but might be confused by that whole "left side of the road" thing in some countries, where if you are turning right, you must give way to all vehicles coming towards you including those turning left. Likewise, you might have a good understanding of your construction contract in one state, but not how it would be interpreted in another state.
As just one of many examples– the statute of repose can vary widely. In North Carolina, it is 6 years. In South Carolina, it is 10 years. The jurisdiction (state) that you are in does matter– sometimes critically so.
Have you ever found yourself in trouble because of a difference of state laws from what you are most familiar with? Share in the comments section below.
Don't Let Construction Problems Become Construction Disputes (guest post)
To start our week off right, today we have another important article from guest blogger Christopher G. Hill, LEED AP. Chris is a Virginia Supreme Court certified mediator, construction lawyer and owner of the Richmond, VA firm, The Law Office of Christopher G. Hill, PC. He authors the Construction Law Musings blog where he discusses legal and policy issues relevant to construction professionals. His practice concentrates on mechanic's liens, contract review and consulting, occupational safety issues (VOSH and OSHA), and risk management for construction professionals. [His blog was also one of the first construction law blogs I found and followed, even if he is a Duke alum!] Take it away, Chris!
First and foremost, thanks to Melissa for inviting me back to post here at her great blog. She continues to invite me back despite my being a Blue Devil (and I try not to hold her Tar Heel status against her).
So much of discussion relating to construction law and construction lawyers centers on the litigation of disputes. This discussion comes in many forms from avoidance of such litigation through the early intervention of good counsel prior to getting into a project to what sort of resolution mechanism to use. Another branch of this discussion is essentially the right way to pursue your claim (or as some may read it start the dispute ball rolling). Sometimes a payment bond claim is the best method while others a straight up contractual suit is the best way to go.
Of course, all of this discussion presumes that there will be disputes. While I agree to some degree that in the Murphy's Law riddled world of commercial construction, problems will arise. These problems need not rise to the level of a dispute that requires outside (read court or arbitrator) intervention. A few tips that are easy to write, but admittedly hard to practice at times can hopefully keep problems from blossoming into disputes. I've listed a three big ones here:
- Use "in house counsel." Yes, I know that most of you engineers, architects, commercial general contractors and subcontractors out there aren't big enough to either want or need a full time attorney on the payroll. What I mean by this is that when problems occur (or preferably before doing so), give your friendly local construction lawyer a call. As I learned from my dad, an ounce of prevention and all that. That 10 minute phone call may help avoid many hours of time and bills from your attorney later down the road.
- Build Relationships. This seems like more of a marketing tip, but it is also a risk prevention strategy. I have seen many a potential dispute get resolved with minimal or no intervention on my part simply because the general and subcontractor had a good working relationship. With the right team oriented approach and communication many a jobsite problem can be resolved in the pre-dispute stage. If the two companies don't know each other, this is less likely to occur.
- Communicate Up Front. I know, I beat this drum a lot. Why? Because it's a big deal. Setting the right expectations through proper communication and negotiation on the front end will set the terms of the "deal" and give all involved a guide for how to deal with problems as they occur.
Following these three tips will help you avoid construction disputes and the hefty attorney fees that come with the prosecution of those disputes.
Can you think of other tips that we can add to the list? Let Melissa and me know.
Thanks Chris! As always, you hit the nail on the head (pun intended). For those that don't already follow Chris' blog (and why don't you???), do check it out and show him some blog love. You'll learn a lot, and be glad you did.
Wake County Justice Center- a LEED Silver Project done right!
Yesterday evening, I had the privilege of attending the Triangle USGBC's "Talk & Walk" at the Wake County Justice Center. The 576,996 square foot Justice Center was completed 6 months early and over 30 million under budget. (The final cost, including soft costs, came in at ~$141,000,000). Now that's what I call a LEED project done right!
Interestingly, the County did not endeavor for a LEED Silver rating– the plan was to aim for a Certification. However, as the process unfolded, the Team kept meeting the goals and points for a Silver certification without any appreciable additional costs.
The end result? An "iconic but energy efficient building," according to Tim Ashby, current Wake County Facilities Project Manager. Tim was initially involved in the Project while working at O'Brien Atkins, which served as the architecture firm for the Project under the direction of Architect Andrew Zwiacher.
The Project was a Construction Manager at Risk project, involving a joint venture between Balfour Beatty Construction and Barnhill Contracting Company. Did the contract type contribute to the success of the Project? According to Project representatives, it likely was responsible for the 6 month early completion due to the high level of coordination.
Energy efficiency in the Building comes from the low flow plumbing (total water savings of 45%, 15% more than LEED requires), programmable and natural daylighting, and almost 98% construction waste diversion.
Another interesting legal factoid: BIM (Building Information Modeling) was utilized. Through BIM, a conflict was discovered in the space allocated for the air handling units versus the planned size of those units. This discovery enabled a change to the AHU units (to make them wider and shorter) prior to manufacturer, saving untold delays in time and increases in cost. We'll talk more later about the pros (and cons) of BIM, but suffice it to say it worked very well on this Project.
If you haven't been by to see the Justice Center yet, please do. It's a great design (17 elevators!), and a great change from the old Courthouse across the street.
Have you seen the Justice Center yet? Thoughts on the design? Share in the comments below.

Sobering Facts for Construction Safety Day
Happy "Construction Safety Day" everyone! James White of Maxwell Systems, has shared with me an infographic showing all sorts of data about construction fatalities.
As you might expect, falls are the #1 source of construction-site fatalities, followed by being struck by falling objects, electrocution, and being caught between objects, in that order. Together, these "fatal four" make up 57% of all construction worker deaths.
To view the complete infographic, click here.
Thanks, James, for the sobering reminder.
Cozy up with some good Construction Blogs (and a favor)
If you haven't already, check out some of the blogs on my Blogroll. These are other construction law writers from around the United States. Even if they are not writing for your jurisdiction, most of the information is relevant to readers from any state- or indeed, for readers from many other countries.
In addition to the Blogroll, you can find a plethora of well-written, topical blogs in Construction Marketing Ideas, founded by Mark Buckshon. Mark's company is also responsible for publication of the North Carolina Construction News, which is on my "to read" list and should be on yours.
And yes, if you think I have ulterior motives, I do. This blog is one of the contestants, so if you feel so inclined to vote, please consider including this blog among your votes. (In the alphabetized list, under "C", "Construction Law in North Carolina," which is the 14th from the top.
You can vote for multiple blogs, and I encourage you to do so as there are many good contenders this year. The contest is open until the end of the month. Happy reading & happy voting!

Selecting a Laboratory Vacuum Pump on Amazon.com
A laboratory vacuum pump is used in research, educational, and industrial labs for a tasks including vacuum filtration, distillation, and removing solvents or contaminants from fume hoods and during rotary evaporation. A laboratory vacuum pump is often preferred to other vacuum sources because it produces a consistent vacuum, reduces risk of cross contamination, and collects contaminants for disposal. Types include rotary vane and diaphragm. A rotary vane pump is oil-sealed and produces the highest vacuum. A diaphragm pump is oil-free, which reduces maintenance requirements, and can often be used for corrosive solvents. An aspirator pump can also be used to produce a vacuum, but it produces a weaker vacuum, uses large amounts water, and doesn't remove contaminants from wastewater. Features to consider when selecting a laboratory vacuum pump include pressure range, types of solutions being processed, and requirements for pressure consistency and contaminant collection.

We loved our time at Angelicas. The owner was so nice and friendly. She did not speak great English but she had a friend over often who speak it perfectly. It was only a 10 minute walk to the beach and town and the facilities were very nice. We had our own private room with balcony and a small kitchenette equipped with two elements. Great value for money.

Doubt thou the stars are fires;Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar But never doubt i love. W.S.
I formerly owned the antique store where i felt overlooked on the top shelf. I have since discovered that the best things in life are sometimes hard to find. I think,and am pretty darn sure, i am a very good thing to have in one's life.
Here is what i need to add and maybe put out front. I am a single divorced retired dad. I have a son almost 11 and he is the most important aspect of my life. i know from experience that most of you women have shed the kids from the home and don't want to raise any more. I totally understand this and i wish you nothing but the best. So, to love me is to maybe accept and love my son down the road. That choice is something for you to decide later. However, my having a child doesn't not take away from the time i have to spend with a fine woman. I have plenty of support here and can get away almost any time i want to. So, fear not, i will not have the my son is sick excuse popping up very often.
I am an eternal optimist but i am so afraid the proverbial half full glass will break soon. I believe that once you get through the not so always appealing outside you will find a gift worth cherishing. If you are not finding the one you want with your current method of choice then perhaps it is time to reconsider another view point? The more that you know me and get used to me the more you will adore me and be happy that you gave me a look.. I am very warm to the touch and can be soft and cuddly. I am also good at keeping myself up to date. I enjoy driving so fear not, for the right one, i will drive your way to make things happen. Rob PS i am thinking about adding old records to the my personal inventory and Music is the Dr of the Soul.

Rico Abreu has earned his first career stock car victory, racing to the win at Columbus Motor Speedway in Ohio.
Austin Dillon won the Xfinity Series race at Daytona International Speedway by avoiding a late accident and holding off the competition on a two-lap sprint to the finish.

Picture: Paul McCartney pushes his own luggage after arriving on a flight at JFK Airport New York City, USA - 20.10.12
"I wrote the song on Valentine's Day in Morocco where we were on holiday and it had been raining, and I'd said, 'Oh pity about the rain' and she'd said to me, 'It doesn't matter, we'll have a good time.' I really liked that because I know there's nothing you can do about weather." Sir Paul McCartney wrote new track My Valentine in his hotel while vacationing with wife Nancy.

Is There Any Meaning In Poet Seamus Heaney's Last Text?
Commentator Andrei Codrescu reflects on the text message written by poet Seamus Heaney just before he died. In Latin he wrote to his wife "do not be afraid." The 74-year-old Heaney died in a Dublin hospital last week. Codrescu says no great meaning should be implied — it was just a personal message to his wife.

Cosmopolitanism in Mexican Visual Culture
María Fernández
Since the colonial era, Mexican art has emerged from an ongoing process of negotiation between the local and the global, which frequently involves invention, synthesis, and transformation of diverse discursive and artistic traditions. In this pathfinding book, María Fernández uses the concept of cosmopolitanism to explore this important aspect of Mexican art, in which visual culture and power relations unite the local and the global, the national and the international, the universal and the particular. She argues that in Mexico, as in other colonized regions, colonization constructed power dynamics and forms of violence that persisted in the independent nation-state. Accordingly, Fernández presents not only the visual qualities of objects, but also the discourses, ideas, desires, and practices that are fundamental to the very existence of visual objects.
Revolt: Aesthetics of Dissent and Disgust
"Revolt: Aesthetics of Dissent and Disgust," a new exhibition at the Herbert F.
Johnson Museum of Art curated and organized by students in the History
of Art Majors Society, shows how revolution within the realm of art and in society as a whole are inextricably connected, and that art not only reflects but also contributes to the creation of new political, social, or cultural realities. Link to full story.

I had a bit of a late start to the season, but after surviving this winter in the snowiest county in the country, there were times when I wasn't even sure if I would be racing until August or later. The snow finally melted by May and we went directly into summer, however.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
A ril 26, 1966 A. J. BURKE MULTIWALL BAG Filed 001;. 21. 1964 FIG. 2
INVENT OR AR THUR .1. BURKE ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,248,041 MULTIWALL BAG Arthur J. Burke, Oakland, N.J.,'assignor to Howe Richardson Scale Company, Clifton, NJ., a corporation of Delaware Filed Oct. 21, 1964, Ser. No. 405,392 10 Claims. (Cl. 229-55) This invention relates to multiwall bags and particularly to such bags having an inner ply of air tight plastic or the like and provided with a special air vent arrangement to prevent bursting of the bag during forcible packing with flour and like solid substances.
Flour and other substances are usually'packed with considerable pressure into bags, the substance being forced into the bag as by an auger type feed. In the past conventional multiwall paper bags were employed, and the paper was of suflicient porosity that air displaced from the substance vented directly through the paper.
More recently it has become customary to provide multiwall paper and other bags with an inner ply of thin highly flexible sheet plastic, such as polyvinyl chloride were food is packaged, such bags comprising for example inner and outer paper layers with an intermediate ply of air tight plastic which may be sealed at least along the top and bottom edges, so that a completely water and air tight package is provided. Bags of this construction however cannot be filled by packing because the air impervious ply prevents displaced air from escaping the bag and often the bags will balloon and even burst during the packing process.
The present invention solves the problem of utilizing these desirable plastic internal sheet liners or plys in multi- 'wall bags for packing, by providing an air venting ply or liner between the inner wall of the .bag and the air tight ply.
It is therefore the major object of this invention to provide a novel multiwall bag construction wherein an air vent layer, liner, ply or the like is provided between the inner substance contact wall and the air tight ply, which is preferably thin highly flexible polyvinyl chloride sheeting or equivalent. Pursuant to this object the air vent layer may be corrugated paper, crepe paper, open work fabric or any like material capable of maintaining an air escape path to the bag edges While the interior is being subjected to expanding type packing operations.
Further objects .of the invention will appear as the description proceeds in connection with the appended claims and the annexed drawings wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a section diagrammatically showing a multiwall bag of the type in which the invention may be incorporated;
FIGURE 2 is a fragmentary enlarged section on line 22 of FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a fragmentary section on line 3-3 of FIGURE 2;
FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary section similar to FIGURE 2 but incorporating a ditferent air vent ply; and
FIGURE 5 is a fragmentary view showing an open work fabric used as the air vent ply in FIGURE 4.
FIGURE 1 shows one type of bag in which the invention may be incorporated. When the top flaps are sealed after packing, the entire package is water and air tight.
FIGURES 2 and 3 show one preferred wall structure comprising an inner paper ply wall 11, an air vent ply 12, a highly flexible ply of air impervious plastic sheet material 13, here polyvinyl chloride, and an outer paper ply wall 14.
In this embodiment the air vent ply is a sheet of crepe paper sufficiently resistant to crushing to withstand packing pressures for maintaining continuously open air vent channels or reliefs to the edges of the open mouth of the bag during filling. This is diagrammatically shown in FIGURES 2 and 3.
Thus, as the flour or like substance packs within inner paper layer 11, displaced air will pass through the relatively porous paper and will vent through the crepe paper passages, so that the bag is protected against entrapped air pockets and possible bursting.
Similarly FIGURES 4 and 5 show another type of air venting ply wherein a sheet of open net fabric 15 is interposed between the inner paper ply and the plastic ply, thereby providing for escape of air from the interior of the plastic liner when the bag is packed with flour or other like contents.
The invention may be applied to substantially any multiwall bag combination, and it is necessary only that the air vent ply lines the air impervious ply to protect it against bursting.
The bags of the invention usually originate from tubular multiwall lengths which are cut to length and the bottom flaps folded over and sealed air tight as shown in FIG- URE 1. After filling the upper flaps or sides are interfolded into airtight sealing relation.
The invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. The present embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
What is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is:
1. A multiwall bag construction consisting essentially of an inner air pervious substance containing layer, an air impervious layer disposed outwardly of said inner layer, an air vent layer disposed intermediate said other two layers, and an outer layer of air pervious material around said air impervious layer. I
2. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 1 wherein said inner layer is paper. I
3. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 1,
wherein said air impervious layer is a thin sheet of flexible plastic.
4. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 3 wherein said air impervious plastic layer is polyvinyl chloride.
5. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 1,
wherein said air vent layer comprises a sheet of crepe paper.
6. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 1 wherein said air vent layer is an open work fabric.
7. The multiwall bag structure defined in claim 1 wherein said air vent layer is a corrugated sheet material.
8. A multiwall bag structure for the forcible packing of solids comprising inner and outer plies of paper ,with an internal liner of flexible air impervious plastic secured within the outer paper ply and an intermediate air vent ply located within the air impervious ply whereby when said material is packedwithin the bag displaced air escapes through passages in said air vent ply to the open end of the bag being filled.
9. A multiwall bag construction consisting essentially of an inner air perv-ions substance containing layer, an air layers, and an outer layer of paper extending around said air impervious layer. p v v I H 10. A multiwall bag structure for the forcible packing of a solid substance comprising an inner ply of air pervious sheet material such as paper adapted to directly contain said substance, an outer ply coextensively surrounding said inner ply and having at least on its inner side a layer of flexible air impervious plastic, and an intermediate air vent ply located between said air impervious layer and said inner ply whereby when said substance is being packed within the bag displaced 'air escape-s through passages in said air vent ply to the open end of the bag being filled.
