In July of 2012, A.J. Allmendinger failed one of the NASCAR's random drug tests - receiving an indefinite suspension from the sport. In the blink of an eye, many thought the young driver's career was over.
However, Allmendinger began to work his way back and completed NASCAR's Road to Recovery program to be reinstated in September of 2012.
Allmendinger spent the 2013 season running a part-time Sprint Cup schedule for Phoenix Racing, as well as some Nationwide Series and IndyCar races for Penske Racing.
"Last year was just an unbelievable year that I didn't expect," Allmendinger commented. "When I left Daytona to run the Rolex race, that was the only race that I planned on doing. Very lucky to start with James Finch; he gave me the opportunity to run his Sprint car and at least get my foot back in the door in being a Sprint Cup driver and then Roger Penske and all the chances that he gave me with IndyCar and the Nationwide Series.
"I really think because of that, I got to meet Tad and Brad and start to build that relationship. If I wasn't there, that couldn't happen. We all know as drivers if you're not in the car, you're quickly forgotten about."
In the end, his hard work paid off as Allmendinger has now landed his feet - ready to tackle the full schedule with JTG Daugherty in 2014. 'Dinger' said the idea came about after running a couple races last year to close out the year for the team.
"It's a great place to be and these people have made me feel more than just a driver or a employee," Allmendinger commented. "I feel part of their family. They got great beliefs and I felt like as we developed doing a couple more races and things like that really getting to know them – I thought this was the right place to be. As we started talking about the possibility of this year and years on, I felt like this was the right place for me and a good place that I could be for a long time."
Allmendinger added the amount of partners the team has also speaks volumes about team co-owner Tad Geschickter.
"Tad is good at going out there and getting to know the people that he needs to know and building those relationships and partnerships and that was something that really attracted me to this great race team," Allmendinger continued.
Along with signing Dinger for the 2014 season, JTG Daugherty Racing went and formed a technical alliance with Richard Childress Racing. Co-owner Brad Daugherty said the idea of forming an alliance came about after evaluating their program. They were trying to think of ways to improve and expand and knew that expanding to two cars in house wouldn't solve their problems.
"Jodi and I sat and talked about it more and more and we knew we had to have the alliance if we truly want to be competitive," Daugherty explained. "Within our four walls, we don't feel like we're at 30th place race team; we feel like we're a 20th place race team. Reality is, we were a 30th place race team. So how do we improve upon that? The obvious opportunity is to go about and partner."
Daugherty said they chose to partner with RCR based on the resources that Richard Childress would open up to them and how they could maximize it.
"The one thing that Richard has been very good about it is giving entry to everything that they're doing in their building and it's up to us to take advantage of us," Daugherty commented. "We are very excited – we're always excited getting ready for Daytona – but with what Richard Childress brings, power plant point, engineering, we're real excited for Daytona. After the speeds that Austin Dillon ran by himself, we're really excited. We think its going to be a huge step for our program going forward."
Daugherty added that they hope to do what Furniture Row Racing has been able to do with their alliance with RCR. FRR was able to put Kurt Busch in the Chase last season and contend for wins on multiple weekends.
"We're going to come, show up and be loud and proud and when we go to some of those places – Walkins Glen, Dover – we're going to kick their butts," Daugherty commented. "That's what we're doing. There's no need to be shy or beak about – we got our butts kicked the past couple of years so we're going to return the favor."
JTG Daugherty went down the alliance road before with Michael Waltrip Racing, unable to find success. However, Daugherty expects different results this time due to RCR being an established team versus MWR just starting when they formed that previous alliance.
"If you remember, they were just coming into the sport," Daugherty explained. "That year, we helped them develop some stuff – but each team struggled mightily. It was really to our detriment to be a partner, both ways. We ended up not having success.
"The thing I like about Richard is even through the struggles, he's stuck with it and he comes back with a present. We feel it'll benefit us. The other thing I like is his engine program is in house. I think if you're going to be really successful in this sport, you have to control your engine process and the process we had before didn't allow that so there were growing pains there. The thing the biggest thing is we won't have to deal with growing pains; we're dealing with something that's built."
For Allmendinger, JTG Daugherty forming the alliance showed him their commitment to having success this year. Having the alliance allowed the team to save on resources and sit out the Daytona pre-season test.
"You'd love to be there, but we had to kind of sit down and thing about how we can use our resources the right way," Allmendinger explained. "With the alliance with RCR and knowing that they are going to do the test and they've been show open with this partnership. Richard has opened the doors and really let us be part of their organization. So we thought, 'Okay, they can go do the test; we can learn for that'.
"Obviously they had really fast racecars so that's a sign of good things to come going into Daytona, but I think its just going out there and putting it together piece by piece. The big thing for us is knowing that were going to have the opportunities with the resources so putting the right people in place, getting the cars ready to go and maximizing all the data and everything we will get from the alliance."
The team hopes the decisions pay off and Allmendinger hopes that he can be with Geschickter and Daugherty for a long time. Though, to start off, it'll take managing expectations considering the team failed to finish in the top 10 last year.
"You want everything to happen overnight and it'd be nice to, but it's not easy," Allmendinger commented. "We can continually build this and I hope it's not a one year thing. we have this for multi-years and we know we can keep building it."
In the end, the goal for the team is simple - score their first Sprint Cup Series win.
"It'd be great to get my first and bring the first into the organization, bring it to the shop. That's the ultimate goal – but it's really about taking it piece by piece," Allmendinger said. "You can't just jump from 30th to 1st; it takes a lot of time. But if I feel if we do everything that we need to do to the maximum ability, people will say that they're a team that we can't sleep on. They're here every weekend and contending but that's a long ways down the line. We just have to focus day to day."

Fit is so subjective, it's very challenging question to answer. What seems similar to me might be completely different to you. I've never worn an RXQ, but I can tell you I was at a consumer show in Cleveland over the weekend and was able to try the Arai XD4 back-to-back with the MX453. In my opinion, the XD4 was a bit more comfortable, but I was happy to see how close we came. Front to back distance was about the same. Overall comfort was very close, but I would give Arai the nod. The MX453 is what we consider a long oval shape, but I thought it was very similar to the XD4.
I've worked at 4 of the International Motorcycle Shows and the consumer response to the fit of the MX453 has been overwhelmingly positive. The thing fits GREAT.
Hope that helps some. I'd appreciate hearing your feedback if you get the chance to try both.
Thanks so much for the response. Wish now that I had looked at this helmet while attending the International Motorcycle Show. I will try to find a place to try own the helmets and post my feedback.

I've gotten very behind on my blog posts. Several reasons for this, I think:
•I am working away on my horn technique book. Most of my thoughts and energies as far as writing goes, go there.
•Some other writing energy goes into articles for The Horn Call
•Day to day is pretty busy at school: teaching, playing, planning, meetings, rehearsals, recitals, brass juries, comps, and so on. End of semesters are particularly busy.
•Other upcoming projects are in various planning stages and are not ready to write about yet.
•Ditto upcoming events. I'll be teaching two weeks at Kendall Betts Horn Camp in New Hampshire in June once again. I like to try to bring something new every year; I don't usually write about that ahead of time. I will also be teaching at Acadia University in Nova Scotia for two weeks in July. I have to spend time working on the details of lesson plans for both of them.
•The end of spring semester is also the time when I have to do most of the planning for next year: concerts, recitals, seminars, courses (besides horn, and horn ped/lit, I also teach a couple labor of love courses: Improvisation for Classical Musicians, Weird Music (freshman seminar), and Creativity in Music. CiM is always a little different every year, so I will as usual be revising or replacing some old lectures. Every lecture takes a lot of time, usually reading and taking notes on a number of books once I decide on the topic.
•I was asked to give a lecture to some of the faculty at the UI School of Nursing on creativity, plus a follow-up discussion several weeks later. That was fun and different, but took some time to put together as all new lectures do. There may be more of these next year.
•A couple things that I've started doing that (I hope) don't make up an excuse not to blog are playing some guitar again and some percussion. I played guitar for years – from 9th grade on – along with horn, sometimes more, sometimes less over the years: folk, classical bluegrass, jazz. Then got tendinitis and stopped for years. So I am leaving my Gibson 347 (like a 335, semi hollow body sunburst) out in the living room, and am starting to pick a little while morning tea is steeping, and maybe a little bit after that. I'm very rusty, but it's fun to pick up the old ax again and pick a little. I also have started doing a little sticking – basic drum stick practice. I do most if no one but me is home and I try paradiddles on this cheap electric practice drum set during TV commercials. I want to work the djembe into the action soon. But what I really want to get going on is conga. Except that I don't have one. Maybe this fall. It's fun being a beginner…

My new CD "Soundings" was just released on the MSR Classics label (msrcd.com).
It is an exploration of a new area for me: horn plus the use of various electronic effects to experiment with new timbres, new means of expression.

New online tool for musicians: Drone Tone Tool (www.dronetonetool.com). It's free (donations welcome) and provides an endless low cello tone on any chromatic pitch as a reference tone. For lagniappe, there is also a metronome that you can engage along with the tone.
Kudos and thanks to Theodore Benson, a violinist from Seattle, for this musical tool.

Climate change: are we past the point of no return?Climate change won't be a smooth transition, warn Allianz and WWF in a report flagging potentially catastrophic ecological tipping points.
Article at a glance
We tend to think of climate change as a slow and steady process, following a fairly predictable, even manageable path. That is a mistake, warns the 'Tipping Points Report' published by Allianz and WWF.
With global warming a smooth transition is unlikely, says the report. Instead there may be disruptive, sudden changes as key ecological thresholds, or tipping points, are breached.
As report co-author Tim Lenton describes in the film below, tipping points describes the concept that "a small change can make a big difference" to a particular part of the Earth's ecosystem, changing its state fundamentally.
Such transitions may be irreversible. In some cases, passing the tipping point is barely perceptible, but it still makes a large impact on the future.
The term "tipping element" describes those environmental processes that could be forced past a tipping point. The report focuses on 12 of the most urgent or "policy-relevant" tipping elements where human activity could have a decisive influence. The elements fall into three categories:
- melting ice and permafrost
- climate phenomena like El Nino and the 'Gulf Stream' that influence other elements
- changing rainfall patterns in the tropics and sub-tropics
The report then identifies four sets of risks associated with these elements and the impacts they entail.
- sea level rise
- unstable monsoon in India
- drought in Amazonia
- drought in Southwest North America
Points of no return?The best known tipping point is the global warming threshold of 2 degrees Celsius. A temperature rise slightly above that is considered highly dangerous by climate scientists. It could, for instance, trigger dieback of much of the Amazon rainforest, destroying a vital carbon sink and source of fresh water.
Sea level rises, unpredictable monsoons in India, and the desertification of the Southwest region of North America are other key tipping points, according to the report's authors from the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research.
In the Southwestern US the tipping point has probably already been passed. The scientists now predict that by mid-century levels of aridity last seen in the 1930s will be the norm.
The study suggests melting polar ice sheets would make possible a 0.5 meter sea level rise by 2050. The Greenland ice sheet, for example, contains enough water for up to 7 meters of global sea level rise. With 1 to 4 degrees of global warming above 1980-1999 levels it could tip into irreversible meltdown. While a total meltdown would take several hundred years, half a meter's worth of melt this century is possible.
A global half-meter sea level rise would almost double the number of people vulnerable to flooding worldwide, two thirds of them in Asia. It would endanger an extra $3 trillion of coastal assets, mostly in China, the US, and India. In New York, the exposed assets would increase by 23%.
In some cases the report offers more reassurance.
Permafrost melt in Eastern Siberia could release greenhouse gases CO2 and methane. But it would require an extreme 9 degrees Celsius surface warming for the system to tip. Claims that the release of greenhouse gases trapped in the permafrost will lead to runaway global warming are "grossly exaggerated," the authors conclude.
Regional extremesUnfortunately, tipping points are largely absent from policymaking discussions and not well reflected in current climate change policies.
For instance, by framing policy on a global scale—the 2 degrees threshold for example—we forget that regional climate changes may be far more extreme.
We may also be overly dependent on reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which have in some cases been challenged by more recent evidence (see 'Polar expert brands climate change report "complacent"').
And because there has been no concerted effort to reduce carbon emissions we are almost certain to breach the 2 degrees threshold this century. The climate change lag effect means that we could already be irrevocably committed to tipping points we don't even know about yet.

It is good information, all govt's should take immediate action by educate the people immediately.All countries should come forward to save this earth.
We are past the tipping point. The Kyoto Emissions Pact was too late in coming. You all have underestimated the rate of the warming. It will be in decades rather than centuries and will continue to excelerate until a new equilibrium is reached.I have been studying the facts for years and your predictions are all off. You have no real clue as to the impact of this warming. You are all whistling in the dark.
No one talks of the possible positive aspects of the warming. Many areas now not warm might be able to sustain agriculture.
Love to you all and realize that there is nothing we can now do to stop or even slow it down.

Many thanks for your comment. In fact, oxygen levels in the atmosphere are not increasing, its the CO2 levels that are increasing. This should already answers your question regarding the oxidation of metals.
The increase of CO2 levels will, theoretically, make plants grow faster. Global warming, however, could make certain areas drier, which will again limits growth. Northern latitudes will probably see increased growth and longer growth periods, while regions closer to the equator won't profit because of increased weather extremes (floods, drought).
Assuming that oxygen levels are increasing what would happen to the normal growth of plants,insects and animals? Furthermore,what would happen to the everyday metal- made appliances from overly exposed to increased oxygen levels? The fact remains that we need the present levels of carbon dioxide which in natural balance with oxygen makes possible our existence.
This web site has helped me a great deal. I am in grade 8 and am doing a speech on climate chang/global warming/changing water currents/ and the new phenomeon of 2012...these pages are full of intresting information on the El Ninos and La Nina which was great because that is one of the 4 main points in my speech! This was a great web sit, and i only wish this website had information for every topic in the world, that way all my homework and assinments would be done in a flash. Thanks again!
It is warmer, but no one knows the cause nor is any agreement will do a thing. "Tipping points" are spoken of on this blog as if it is fact when the fact is it is an opinion. It may or may not be correct. But, remember, in 1980, El Nino happened every 7 years. By 1988, that "fact" was found to be false. This guy is reasonable, rational and unbiased. In other words he has the right approach. Everyone should consider this.
Carbon tax will slap 3000 dollars of debt on every newborn child in all participating nation states. i've never heard of a tax across multiple nations, or one that taxes the air, the water, and the flow of you're blood, but making people pay the fat man al gore for all of this will somehow change the endless cycle of cyclical consumption, profit is the only motivation behind gore's actions,
Sadly, current climate models dramatically underestimate future abrupt climate change because ecosystem collapse is underestimated:
Leemans and Eickhout (2004) found that adaptive capacity decreases rapidly with an increasing rate of climate change. Their study finds that five percent of all ecosystems cannot adapt more quickly than 0.1 °C per decade over time.
Forests will be among the ecosystems to experience problems first because their ability to migrate to stay within the climate zone they are adapted to is limited. If the rate is 0.3 °C per decade, 15 percent of ecosystems will not be able to adapt. If the rate should exceed 0.4 °C per decade, all ecosystems will be quickly destroyed, opportunistic species will dominate, and the breakdown of biological material will lead to even greater emissions of CO2. This will in turn increase the rate of warming.
Reference: Leemans og Eickhout, 2004, Another reason for concern: regional and global impacts on ecosystems for different levels of climate change, Global Environmental Change 14, 219–228.
By the way, the world is committed to at least 2C of future warming. Here is what Climate Code Red says:
--Human emissions have so far produced a global average temperature increase of 0.8 degree C.
--There is another 0.6 degree C. to come due to "thermal inertia", or lags in the system, taking the total long-term global warming induced by human emissions so far to 1.4 degree C.
--If human total emissions continue as they are to 2030 (and don't increase 60% as projected) this would likely add more than 0.4 degrees C. to the system in the next two decades, taking the long-term effect by 2030 to at least 1.7 degrees C. (A 0.3 degree C. increase is predicted for the period 2004-2014 alone by Smith, Cusack et al, 2007).
--Then add the 0.3 degree C. albedo flip effect from the now imminent loss of the Arctic sea ice, and the rise in the system by 2030 is at least 2 degree. C, assuming very optimistically that emissions don't increase at all above their present annual rate! When we consider the potential permafrost releases and the effect of carbon sinks losing capacity, we are on the road to a hellish future, not for what we will do, but WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY DONE.

PhD title: Shakespeare in Law
Supervisor: Professor Michael Dobson
M.Litt English Literature
Hometown: Stratford-upon-Avon, England.
This thesis explores the connections between the language of the courtroom and Shakespeare's works. In particular, my research centres on the appropriation of Shakespeare by the judiciary and surveys the practice of employing Shakespearean quotation and allusion in judgment writing. It includes the development of the Shakespeare in English Law Database (SH.I.E.L.D). This project will serve as an online catalogue of several hundred references, spanning cases from the last two centuries.
The analysis includes observations on the wider practice of literary quotation by judges, Shakespeare's presence in the jurisprudence of other jurisdictions and in super-national courts such as the European Court of Human Rights. I consider the rhetorical gains and disadvantages of invoking Shakespeare as well as the implications for enhancing his cultural value through this utilisation of the works within the powerful social mechanism of the law courts.
I am a practising barrister and undertake study on a part-time basis. Dual qualifications in law and Arts provide a wide perspective and professional contacts in both fields. I hope to develop the work into a PhD.

For two years now I've lived in Shoreditch and I have made an intriguing local discovery: there is a small river running right through the heart of the neighbourhood. I don't mean the Regent's Canal, which is a little north of my home turf. This one has little tributaries that trickle out from under bins, down cobbled side streets and even out of doorways.

26 March 2012
Artists' explanations can often illuminate their works. Sometimes they add nothing to their effectiveness while, very rarely, the art suffers for its maker's pronouncements. Gary Hume's exhibitions at the White Cubes in Hoxton and St James's have, I'm afraid, endured this latter fate. The two shows feature the latest in the dazzling paintings that Hume has been evolving for the best part of 20 years - simple images of birds, flowers, portraits and figures, drawn in with pronounced ridges on the surface and then covered with paint in an array of colours which sometimes sit within the ridged borders but often flood over them, filling the picture plane in unyielding slicks of gloss.

They show up at pagan celebrations, such as Stonehenge, and environmental rallies like Big Green Gathering.
With the "11" thing, it just came out of improvisation—same with Stonehenge.
early 12c., Stanenges, literally "stone gallows," perhaps so called from fancied resemblance to old-style gallows with two posts, with the second element related to the verb hang. Some antiquarians suggest the notion may be of "supported in the air, that which hangs in the air" (cf. henge-clif for Latin præruptum), in reference to the lintel stones, but the order of the elements and the inflexion is against this. An ancient name for it was the Giant's Dance.
Ancient circles of large, upright stones that stand alone on a plain in England. There is some controversy about who shaped, carried, and set up these huge stones, which perhaps had religious and astronomical uses. Scholars theorize that Stonehenge was built in three phases beginning in about 2800 b.c. The huge stones are believed to date from 1800 to 1500 b.c.

Level of study Third/Final year
Credit value 20
Semester 1+2
Pre-requisite modules Where students take this course as a 10 credit unit they will be expected to undertake self directed study of the material not covered from the readin
Migration and issues of ethnic and national belonging are currently generating intense national, political discourses across Europe and the UK. Media and popular cultural texts are engaged in major debates concerning international migration. In this context, these issues are provoking pervasive feelings of increased anxiety, risk and dislocation, within a context of rapid social and cultural transformations. This module will examine sociological research perspectives that explore issues of ethnicity and international migration. The first part of the module is a diachronic analysis of international migration which sets out to explore in detail the major historical migration of countries of south into Western Europe. The aims of the module here are to offer a comparative and comprehensive exploration of international migration, decolonisation and globalisation. This module will aid students to comprehend the complexity of history and to address the question of human movement in relation to that history. The second part of the module is a synchronic analysis which will address the contemporary issues in ethnicity and migration such as: the relationship between ethnicity and migration; migration theories; the duality and ambivalence of the colonial experience; the competing discourses of nationalism and trans-nationalism; labour, legal status and the achievement of citizenship; citizenship tests and statutory support; functional integration and social integration; return investments and remittances; gender and migration; religion and migration, asylum-seekers and refugees; and media representations. The module provides students with depth and scope in the analysis of central aspects of international migration and ethnicity and provides them with the tools to discuss competently these current issues.
These courses are taught by a combination of lectures, classes and directed reading.
This module is available as:
Autumn term only 10 credit unit – 3,000 word assessed essay

|Please see the artist comments for a full-fledged description on this big guy.
It is with a heavy heart that I must announce my official retirement from commissions. I have already contacted everyone on the list below and am waiting to hear back from them so that I can issue full refunds. Words cannot even begin to describe just how sorry I am for dragging you guys along for all of this time. I wish there was more that I could do for you guys, but unfortunately, I am not in a position where I could offer anything more than a full refund.
I have reached a point in my life where I just can't do it anymore. I don't know for sure exactly how long ago I reached this point. I tried so hard to push past it, but it is starting to affect my mental health more than it should. So, I think it is in the best interests of everyone involved if I just send out full refunds and give myself the time that I need to recover from all of this.
This does not mean that I will no longer be submitting new work. It just means that I really need to focus on my personal life for awhile so that I can come back to this page with a renewed state of mind. I really should have done this much sooner, but that's a moot point. All I can do now is move forward and try to make the best of it.
When I do come back, I hope to show you guys the completed versions of some projects that have been sitting in the planning stage for ages.

A great horned owl.
- The definition of an owl is a nocturnal bird of prey with forward-facing eyes and a hooded beak.
A flat-faced bird that comes out at night and hoots is an example of an owl.
Origin of owlMiddle English owle ; from Old English ule, akin to German eule ; from Indo-European echoic base an unverified form ul- from source Classical Latin ulula, owl, ululare, to howl
Related Forms:
- owllike
- Any of various often nocturnal birds of prey of the order Strigiformes, having hooked and feathered talons, large heads with short hooked beaks, large eyes set forward, and fluffy plumage that allows for almost noiseless flight.
- Any of several breeds of domestic pigeons having a very short beak somewhat like that of an owl and often a frill of feathers on the chest.
Origin of owlMiddle English owle, from Old English ūle, of imitative origin.
(plural owls)
- Any of various birds of prey of the order Strigiformes that are primarily nocturnal and have forward-looking, binocular vision, limited eye movement, and good hearing.
- A person seen as having owl-like characteristics, especially appearing wise or serious, or being nocturnally active.
From Middle English owle, from Old English Å«le, from Proto-Germanic *uwwalÇ (compare West Frisian ûle, Dutch uil, Danish ugle, German Eule), diminutive of *uwwÅn "˜eagle-owl' (compare German Uhu), of imitative origin or a variant of *Å«faz, *Å«fÅn (compare Swedish uv "˜horned owl', Bavarian Auf), from Proto-Indo-European *up- (compare Latvian Å©pis "˜eagle-owl', Czech úpÄ›ti "˜to wail, howl', Avestan ufyeimi "˜to call out') .
(plural owls)
Part or all of this entry has been imported from the 1913 edition of Webster's Dictionary, which is now free of copyright and hence in the public domain. The imported definitions may be significantly out of date, and any more recent senses may be completely missing.

Every OWL document is an RDF document. However, "OWL Full" documents are supersets of RDF, while "OWL Lite" and "OWL DL" (description logistics) are subsets. Why Isn't W-eb O-ntology L-anguage WOL? Because OWL sounds better and is also reminiscent of William A. Martin's One World Language project of the 1970s. OWL was developed to provide one description language for the World Wide Web. See RDF and SPARQL.

Decorating With Citrine
Blue has seen a lot of hype over the past few months, and now many people believe honeysuckle is the next on-trend shade. Still, it's citrine that I can't get enough of! I've spotted this warm yellow shade everywhere these days, and the more I see it, the more I love it!
Citrine works great as an accent, or even as a paint colour. It's a versatile colour because it's bold and crisp, yet still earthy, allowing it to mix well with both warm and cool palettes — I love it with grey-blue, chalky-whites and taupey-greys.
My favourite version of citrine is by Farrow & Ball, called Babouche No. 223. It's bold as a wall colour, so even the professionals suggest a test spot before committing to an entire room.
Another option is this stunning wallpaper, also by Farrow & Ball. The white background softens the warm yellow, but still looks fresh.
If you're not brave enough to paint or paper an entire wall in citrine, try it as artwork.
Accessories offer another way to get a dose of this great colour. Dwell Studio has a gorgeous collection of bedding, pillows and fabrics in citrine.
West Elm has also been using a lot of citrine for various accessories and lighting.
Keep an eye out for citrine! It's a great colour that could add a bit of punch to almost any interior!
See our Yellow Rooms photo gallery for more tips on incorporating yellow.

Album Summary
- Jamie Walton (Cello)
- Daniel Grimwood (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
Jamie Walton and Daniel Grimwood continue their performance partnership with this recording of sonatas for cello and piano by Shostakovich, Britten and Prokofiev. Both Walton and Grimwood are accomplished performers who regularly work together both on disc and in concert, as well as being highly active in the wider musical world. A recent highlight for Walton is his North York Moors Chamber Music Festival (where both he and Grimwood performed), which was nominated for a Royal Philharmonic society award in 2011.
American Record Guide, July / August 2012
In terms of sound, I wish there were more resonance in the bass of the piano. Otherwise, this is a recording of clarity and fine balance between instruments. Walton is remarkable for his rhythmic accuracy as well as his sound and variety of articulation. Both players lay into the wilder pieces - the Shostakovich Scherzo, many parts of the Britten, and the end of the Prokofieff - with fire. There is a fearless approach to playing fast that fits the mood of all three pieces when carried out with the virtuosity and passion that these players bring to their work. They manage to express the depths of emotion and the details of material and sound that make all three of these sonatas masterpieces of the genre. I am happy to recommend this unreservedly.
The Telegraph, 9th March 2012
Theirs is a true partnership, responding with like minds to the lyrical, quizzical and visceral aspects of the [Shostakovich] sonata's trajectory...Individual episodes in the Britten are sharply focused in character but integrated into a broad, organic structure...This is highly cultured playing, rich in enjoyment.
Gramophone Magazine, May 2012
Walton and Grimwood consistently bring out the echoes of Soviet music that Britten no doubt intended as a tribute to his dedicatee...The natural warmth of Walton's playing, matching that of Rostropovich himself, is finely enhanced by the crispness and fresh focus of Grimwood's accompaniments. Clear, well-balanced recording helps to make this a first-rate issue.

Ueno Yamashita, No. 12 in One Hundred Famous Views of Edo
This scene depicts the area known as Yamashita ("Below the Mountain") in Ueno Park. The abstract band of pink and yellow represents the famous cherry blossoms of Kan'eiji Temple ("The Mountain"). The small shrine hidden in the woods is Gōjō Tenjin, and the adjacent restaurant is Iseya, which advertises a rice dish blended with pickled shiso, a minty herb. The procession of parasol-covered women in the lower left corner may be a group of ladies-in-waiting. Stopping to gaze at them is a group of commoners, somewhat awkwardly diminished in size.
This print is one of three in the series that have been ascribed to Hiroshige II.

- Catalogue Description: This is the area down as Yamashita ("Below the Mountain"), the broad open space extending from the southern approach to Kan'eiji (the "mountain": see previous print) along around its eastern side. Here the stone-walled enclosure (the black wall at left center) leads into the temple compound. To the lower left is a procession of parasoled ladies, possibly a group of ladies-in-waiting from one of the daimyo mansions, on their way to Kan'eiji to pay their respects on the memorial day of the Tokugawa ancestor buried there and enjoying the cherry blossoms along the way. The small shrine hidden in the woods is Gojo Tenjin, and the adjacent restaurant, the Iseya, advertises a dish known as shisomeshi, rice blended with pickled shiso (a minty herb). Iseya later adopted the flying-goose motif from its ridge ornament as the basis of a new shop name, as well as a new dish: Gannabe ("goose-pot"), a kind of chicken stew. The interior here shows a fish shop below and the restaurant above; all depicted in bright detail. A flock of crows flies overhead. This is one of three prints in the "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo," together with pls. 41 and 114, that bear the censor's seals for the Tenth Month of 1858, the month following Hiroshige's death. The artist may have left completed designs at the time of his death which had not been formally approved. However, the theory has been advanced that these three prints were in fact the work of Hiroshige II. Reference is made to Uchida Minoru, "Hiroshige" (1930). It may be that Hiroshige himself executed preliminary sketches and that it was only the final version which was executed after his death. It is also possible, noting the close master-disciple relations, that a disciple other than Shigenobu, the future Hiroshige II, was involved.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals

By Campaign staff, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 04 October 2012 10:20AM
Agencies have been approached to pitch for a major brief to promote the breadth of Unipart Group's offering. The group's activities consist of warehousing, manufacturing, replacement parts and rail services for businesses and individual clients.
In October last year, Unipart Automotive appointed Nexus/H to handle its media and creative accounts in its first return to advertising since the 80s.
The agency, which won the account after a competitive pitch, was asked to relaunchthe company's 700-strong network of garages. Nexus/H created a radio, print and online campaign called "you'll find us better" that featured the voices of staff from Unipart Car Care Centres.
Unipart Group was created from the parts operation of British Leyland, and was privatised in 1987.

MILTON-FREEWATER -- She's not sure how this venture will turn out, Mari Meza said Wednesday, but she is sure she is supposed to be doing it.
Earlier this month, the Milton-Freewater woman and her family opened Heart, Soul & Mind, an enterprise that, so far, has defied categorization, said Meza, a native of the Walla Walla Valley. "I just call it a training center."
In the Main Street office, the Mezas will offer a variety of classes and ministries, including the kinds of trainings Meza developed in her position as a program director for the Blue Mountain chapter of the American Red Cross.
From education for the physical realm -- babysitting, fitness, CPR trainings -- to supporting the spiritual with Bible studies and teen outreach, the family hopes to care for the community that has cared so deeply for them.
It was Oct. 19, 2010, when fire broke out in their rural home on Locust Road. Before the last spark was extinguished, the Mezas had lost their home, their belongings and a daughter.
Malani, who would have celebrated her eighth birthday last month, was killed in the blaze. Her little girl, the family's next-to-youngest, was a deep sleeper who also suffered from asthma, Meza said. "That smoke took her right away, I'm sure."
Another daughter, Genesis, now 7, suffered burns on her hands and feet and was taken to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center in Portland. Meza was also hospitalized at Providence St. Mary Medical Center.
The tragedy was widely reported and area residents responded with overwhelming compassion and outpouring of tangible support, Meza recalled through tears. "We will never pay back everything that people have done for us, but we want to try."
The event that changed her family's life will not be forgotten, she said. "I can still place myself in that hot fire."
To that end, Meza has forced herself to speak about the loss to groups, so that Malani's life -- and death -- will not be in vain.
Meza, 36, and husband, Efraim, 48, opened Heart, Soul & Mind "for the glory of God" with the last $2,500 in donations to their family, she added. "My husband and I are mission driven. We want to serve God. He was there 24-7, the only one who could comfort us."
Meza has trained more than 5,000 people through the Red Cross. And now that the national agency's restructuring has slimmed down the Walla Walla office and "skyrocketed" the cost of classes, she's aware many will not be able to access lifesaving and other traditional Red Cross offerings. "I knew it was coming. They were working people who couldn't afford the classes."
The area's economy doesn't help the situation, she noted -- some employers no longer can send employees in for the CPR training, for example.
Heart, Soul & Mind will be able to offer those type of classes at a family-friendly price, she said. Eventually she hopes to have the funds -- $700 to start -- to apply for nonprofit status.
"I know what it's like to be at the bare minimum," Mari said. "To run out of gas on the highway and trying to walk to work. I understand about families that have to make it work with kids and jobs."
Indeed, Meza takes her youngest child to work with her every day. Galilea, or "Gali," 2, was the baby Mari snatched out of the crib by the wood stove where the fire went out of control.
Also spared that day were sons Jacob, 10, and Christian, 16.
The business hosts "Malani's Closet," where people can buy donated clothing for 50 cents per piece. It's a fitting tribute to her daughter. Malani, her mom said, "loved to dress up and walk in style."
She's set to teach cooking classes and Efraim leads Bible studies at the storefront center, which also is a form of training, Meza said with a chuckle. "I call it training for life. Because Bible study absolutely is and CPR comes right after that."
Yet the greatest employee success story from Heart, Soul & Mind might just be her son Christian. Her oldest boy has gone through so much because of the family's devastating loss, she said.
"We were really sick at that time and I asked him to make a fire, like he's done forever, and I think he felt it was his fault."
At 15, Christian responded by leaving the family, "and was gone for quite some time."
He's back now, Meza said, and has planned the center's first teen outreach, a band jam this Friday beginning at 7:30 p.m.
Teens in Milton-Freewater often complain about not having a venue for their own music, so now they will -- in a supervised setting chock full of adults, she explained.
"It's a secular thing, but we have Bible verses up on the wall. It's our subtle way of planting the seed."
It's Christian's hope to have a teen event once a month, from music to poetry readings, his mother said. "It's a blessing for me to see how God is fully working."
The Mezas hope their new venture can be used for good for every single age. She could allow herself to be tortured by the vision of Malani in the fire, Meza said. "I can think 'My baby was fried.' I could go down the tubes with that thought." Her faith, however, has kept her steadfast. "When God is with us, who can be against us?"Sheila Hagar can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 526-8322.
If you go
Heart, Soul & Mind is open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., at 612 N. Main St. in Milton-Freewater. Call 541-861-3139 for more information.

A response by the Leader of Leeds City Council Leader Cllr Keith Wakefield and Cllr Peter Gruen to the news that the Police and Crime Commissioner for West Yorkshire has agreed a funding package for PCSOs in the city for 2014-2016.
Councillor Keith Wakefield, Leader of Leeds City Council said:
"Due to the significant reductions being made to our budget, we are as a council having to make some extremely difficult decisions regarding which services can continue to be delivered by us in the future.
"A key element of how we are meeting this tough budgetary challenge is by working closely with our partners to see how further support and funding for important council initiatives and services across Leeds can be found.
"I am pleased therefore that having listened closely to our case, the Police Crime Commissioner has agreed to contribute to the part funding of our PCSOs over the next two years. The PCSOs play a very important role in combatting anti-social behaviour, and this funding will help ensure that their visible presence remains in Leeds."
Councillor Peter Gruen, Leeds City Council executive board member with responsibility for neighbourhoods, planning and support services said:
"As a council we are putting in a lot of hard work to tackle anti-social behaviour, and a key strand of how this is being achieved is through the deployment of PCSOs in our city.
"Due to the extremely tough financial challenge the council faces, it is simply not possible to fund all of the services that have been provided previously, but we were extremely determined to find a way to continue to fund our PCSOs.
"It is then extremely positive news that the Police Crime Commissioner has provided this financial support towards the cost of our PCSOs and we look forward to them continuing their vital work in our city."

Council secures funding towards PCSOs in city

Leeds joins forces with Yorkshire and Humber region to banish tenancy fraud
Caption: The campaign poster that will be used regionally to encourage people to report tenancy fraud across the region
Leeds is working with councils across Yorkshire and Humber to raise awareness of tenancy fraud across the region.
A week long campaign running from Monday 3 February will encourage people to report tenancy fraud with the strapline "it's not right and it's not fair".
In July 2013 Social Landlords in the region joined forces to create the Yorkshire & Humber Tenancy Fraud Forum (YHTFF) and launch a campaign to tackle tenancy fraud.
Through the tenancy fraud initiative, Leeds City Council has successfully recovered 119 council properties since 2008 from tenants who have been investigated.
Councillor Peter Gruen, Leeds City Council executive board member with responsibility for neighbourhoods, housing and support services said:
"The vast majority of tenants in Leeds behave within the rules and expect their neighbours to do the same. We will not stand for tenants committing fraud in Leeds as it is not right and not fair on those tenants that do follow the rules.
"When somebody with a council or housing association home rents it out without permission or obtains a home through providing false information, they are guilty of housing fraud. They are using up valuable housing spaces and depriving families and vulnerable people on the waiting list. In this small number of cases we will take action in order to make sure houses are available to people who need them.
"This week will hopefully highlight to the people of Leeds that they too can help in the fight to catch tenants behaving fraudulently."
The council will be working closely with eight other housing association partners during the fraud awareness week including Chevin Housing, Home Group, Leeds Federated Housing Association, Places for People, Sanctuary Housing, Together Housing, Yorkshire Housing and Your Headrow.
To report tenancy fraud in Leeds, residents can call the below numbers
Belle Isle Tenant Management Organisation 0113 378 2188
South and South East 0113 378 1410
East and North East 0113 247 6681
West and North West 0113 378 2530
Notes to editors:
Across the UK it is estimated that 98,000 housing association and council homes are occupied by someone who should not live there or has obtained their tenancy fraudulently either by unlawful subletting, obtaining a home by deception or wrongly claiming succession after someone dies.
In July 2013 Social Landlords in the region joined forces to create the Yorkshire & Humber Tenancy Fraud Forum (YHTFF) and launch a campaign to tackle tenancy fraud.

Winter warmth packages delivered to elderly in south Leeds
Caption: (L-R-Front)-Cllr Mohammed Iqbal, member of the inner south area committee, Cllr Angela Gabriel, Chair of the inner south area committee, Betty Broadhead, one of the recipients of the winter warmth packages, and Cllr David Congreve, member of the inner south area committee.
Winter warmth packages are currently being delivered to 1,000 elderly people living in south Leeds, thanks to funding provided from the local area committee.
As part of the project, key essentials including soup and stewed meat, blankets, bed socks, scarves and gloves, will be provided as part of the Winter Warmth Package scheme to support vulnerable and hard to reach residents living in three wards of south Leeds, including Beeston & Holbeck, Middleton Park and City & Hunslet.
Supported by local Neighbourhood Networks who are distributing the packages to the elderly, funding for the £15,000 initiative has been provided from the inner east area committee's wellbeing fund (£9,000) and the Inner South Housing Leeds Area Panel (£6,000).
Councillor Angela Gabriel, chair of the inner south area committee, said:
"Supporting the elderly in our communities remains a key priority of our area committee, and we did not have to think twice therefore when we were given the opportunity to provide funding towards 1,000 winter warmth packages that will be provided to some of our most vulnerable residents.
"The packages are currently being delivered with the fantastic support of our Neighbourhood Networks that do such a great job helping our elderly, and we look forward to supporting similar schemes in the future."
Notes to editors:
10 Area committees across the city, play a vital role setting out detailed improvement plans for the areas they represent, and decide through a monitored service level agreement, where both street cleansing and environmental action should be targeted.
The management and budgets of community centres are also undertaken, while funding is also provided to agencies, groups and organisations which support a range of important projects that are being delivered in communities through their wellbeing fund.
Holbeck Elderly Aid provides a range of services to support and enhance the life of Older People (60 or over).

Australia's leadership paradox
With the 2013 Federal Election campaign underway, questions about who is the best party and person to lead Australia are being debated.
But do we place too much emphasis on a single leader to solve our problems; and then complain when we perceive that nothing has been done?
The authors of a new book on leadership discuss what is holding Australia back and how we should be working together in a more collaborative manner.

College Football News & Notes: August 19
- Updated: August 19, 2014
Injuries and suspensions are part of the lead-up to any college football season, but it truly seems like the months of July and August have been particularly busy on those two fronts. Adjust your power ratings accordingly.
A team without weaknesses has at least one minor question mark. Florida State will be without sophomore wide receiver Isaiah Jones. Jones would have fit into the offense this season after Kelvin Benjamin and Kenny Shaw both moved on in their football careers.
One week after popping up in the news for a torn ACL to linebacker Kelby Brown, Duke lost tight end Braxton Deaver to the same injury. Deaver had 46 catches for 600 yards last season.
Nobody seems to be saying much about it, but a SI.com report insinuated that there was some big friction between Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino and his defensive coordinator, Todd Grantham. It seems to be an unsubstantiated rumor as of now, but the cameras will always be rolling during games.
Potential Miami starting quarterback Jake Heaps missed a key practice over the weekend to "rest his arm". The job seems to belong to Heaps for the opener at Louisville on September 1.
Big 10
The biggest story in the Big Ten is obviously the status of Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller. The school hasn't confirmed the media reports that Miller will be out for the season, but it's unlikely that so many sources are wrong.
Northwestern received quite a bit of bad news this past week. Venric Mark, who was suspended for the first two games of the season, will leave the program to be closer to his family. Shortly after that, news broke that returning leading receiver Christian Jones is done for the season with a knee injury.
Michigan has rightly dismissed sophomore wide receiver Csont'e York after video surfaced of the alleged sucker punch that broke a man's face in three places and caused a concussion. With an assault charge pending, Brady Hoke acted as swiftly as a man of his size can.
Mark Dantonio hasn't given out many specifics, but starting right guard Connor Kruse will not start for Michigan State in Week 1 and possibly longer as he deals with an undisclosed injury.
Big 12
Oklahoma has finally made a decision on five-star true freshman Joe Mixon. The decision was not a favorable one for Mixon. He has been dismissed from the program following the school's investigation into an assault allegation.
West Virginia has enough problems, but ineligible defensive backs like Ishmael Banks could add another wrinkle. Just days after Dana Holgorsen admitted to the media that coaches lie during the recruiting process, one of his starting corners could be ineligible for the season.
Congratulations to Utah's Travis Wilson, who was named the starting quarterback for the opener after facing an uncertain future most of the offseason. Wilson was just recently cleared to play by team doctors.
Mark Stoops has named the starting quarterback at Kentucky. It's Patrick Towles, a redshirt sophomore who played as a true freshman and spent last season learning the offense.
Speaking of naming quarterbacks, Texas A&M has tabbed Kenny Hill as the guy to replace John Football. Hill beat out true freshman Kyle Allen and will be under center when the Aggies visit South Carolina on August 28.
The Auburn defense has enough to worry about because they need to replace Dee Ford and Chris Davis, but safety Robinson Therezie is dealing with eligibility issues. He could miss the opener against Arkansas and possibly more games.
Mississippi State offensive lineman Damien Robinson tore his ACL and will miss the 2014 season. That leaves a huge hole at right tackle for the Bulldogs. Dan Mullen admitted to the media that the Bulldogs weren't deep at that position.
One of the top defensive linemen in the class of 2014, Thomas Holley, will miss the season and take a medical redshirt for Florida. He has a labral tear in his hip and it will take some time to heal.
In other injured linemen news, South Carolina guard Mike Matulis is out with a sprained knee. The bigger injury for the Gamecocks is the loss of Jamari Smith to a very young and inexperienced secondary. He's out for the season with a broken ankle.
Other Conferences
If not for the Braxton Miller news, the academic cheating scandal at Notre Dame would have been the biggest story of the week. Four players, Davaris Daniels, Keivarae Russell, Ishaq Williams, and Kendall Moore, were all suspended from the team until an investigation is completed. This scandal may run deeper and this could be an updated story over the next few weeks or months.
Gunner Kiel has been named the starting quarterback for Cincinnati. The former Notre Dame recruit beat out Munchie Legaux for the job.
Not specific player news, but the Hawaii football program is in some financial trouble. The Athletic Department is facing a huge deficit and travel costs plus the current state of college football could force the Warriors to drop football in order to protect other sports.
The execs at ESPN will never outright say it, but their new 13-year contract to televise MAC football is driven by ratings interest due to gambling. Either way, more #MACtion for all!
USF named Mike White their starting quarterback. Related, head coach Willie Taggart attempted to have the names removed from all of the jerseys and instead mandate that "The Team" would be the name on the back. The NCAA stepped in and stopped that. Service academies are exempt from the NCAA's bylaws regarding alternate names on the back.

"The cards were incredibly easy to customize and I loved the selection offered. I live in the UK now, so it was key for me to have fast and reliable international delivery, which is exactly what I got. I was stunned at how quickly the cards came and was impressed by the quality, especially given what a great price they were. Will definitely use them again to order Thank You cards and will recommend to all my friends."
"Love this, I have been looking for a while now for a save the date, and wedding invite. Its perfect. I do wish it came with a different color of envelope though to jazz it up a little."
"My Silent Frost save-the-dates are everything I wanted in a save-the-date card. They will set the theme and tone for my wedding beautifully. The card is a perfect blend of winter and whimsy! The paper quality is very good - I bought the pearlescent option. The design is unique and classy, yet fun. The best part of my order was the customer service. Sheila, who I had been in contact with requiring pricing and discounts, even wrote me a hand written note I received two days after the save-the-dates. So personal and impressive! I would highly reccommend Wedding Paper Divas and plan to use them for my invites as well."
"We really wanted something simple but fun, and this exceeded our expectations! Shipping was fast, and all the little changes we wanted to make we're done with o problem. Other note - customer service is AWESOME. I'm ordering the rest of the matching set and have no doubt they will be as great as the save the dates!"
"This invitation is exactly what I wanted--elegant, unique, charming, and magical. The paper quality is exceptional. I love the crisp, thick feel of it. Everything about the process was so easy. The font is detailed but easy to read and the ink is the perfect shade of blue to match my wedding colors--and looks great! I love them! I am a happy bride! Side note-- The only tidbit of advice I have for brides is to know that stamps are extra for square invitations."
