Harappian Night Recordings
The Glorious Gongs of Hainuwele
(Bo' Weavil)
US: 14 Apr 2009
UK: 16 Mar 2009
There's little information available on Dr. Syed Kamran Ali, the man given full credit for the creation of Harappian Night Recordings' music. That might be for the best—lifting the veil to see what's behind the melting pot of international musical styles that Ali blends together on The Glorious Gongs of Hainuwele could very well ruin the effect. The press materials carefully point out that this music is not a collection of field recordings, but rather the results of Ali's brain power and studio wizardry. Indeed, the cultures referenced over the course of the disc's 41 minutes span the globe; to have truly collected field recordings that cover this much geography would be a lifelong pursuit. Ali deftly melds instruments, harmonies, and rhythms from South America to the Middle East to the Pacific Rim, and somehow makes a cohesive statement out of the whole thing—a feat of magic that makes the album worth a listen in and of itself. Yes, ethnomusicologists might balk at the question of authenticity in Ali's work, but in this economy who can afford all that traveling to exotic locales? Ali might be faking it, but at least he's honest.

How excited are you that Tom DeLay (whether you like him or not), Debbie Mazar (who you have to like and if you're from NuYawk, you've got to love) and Kathy Ireland are apart of the 2009 season of Dancing with the Stars?
I hear from my insider sources that the 'stars' are starting to shimmy and shake in anticipation of September. Tom DeLay has already burned off 12 pounds.
Is any of this inspiring you? Because dancing not only burns calories, offers an opportunity to socialize with friends – make new friends – partner up and ho down – and much more.
Calories – Depending on the type of dance, you can burn between 200 to 400 calories per half-hour! That's as much as swimming, walking or riding your bicycle.
Cardiovascular Conditioning – Dancing can lead to a slower heart rate, lower blood pressure and improved cholesterol profile. The degree of cardiovascular conditioning depends on how vigorously you dance, how long you dance, and how regularly you do it. Suffice to say, three-four times a week of 30-40 minutes of vigorous dancing is considered real exercise.
Strong Bones – Many dances incorporate side-to-side movements which strengthen your weight bearing bones and can help prevent or slow loss of bone mass also known as osteoporosis. The side to side movements of many dances strengthens you weight bearing bones (tibia, fibula and femur) and can help prevent or slow loss of bone mass (osteoporosis).
Mayo Clinic researchers reported that dancing reduces stress, increases energy, improves strength, increases muscle tone and coordination.
Dancing is good for the brain. It increases blood flow to the brain, and dancing provides mental challenges as it requires memorizing steps and working with a partner, both of which are central to brain health.
Sociability – Last, but most definitely not least, dancing contains a social compoent that many other forms of exercise do not. And sociability, making friends, developing relationships can give your self-esteem a major boost and give you a positive outlook on life!
So get moving – do the waltz, the fox trot, the latin hustle or grab your partners arm and do the Do-Si-Do!
Dance It Off!
Here's an approximation of how many calories you might burn, per hour, based on someone who is approximately 150 pounds.
* Swing dancing: 235 calories/hour
* Ballroom dancing: 265
* Square dancing: 280
* Ballet: 300
* Belly dancing: 380
* Salsa dancing: 420+
* Aerobic dancing: 540+

LaPlace is known as the andouille capital of the world, and the spicy, smoky, Cajun-style sausage is deservedly popular here. In this butcher shop that doubles as a functional, straightforward restaurant, you can get andouille in burgers, in gumbo, made into chips for dipping, or worked into white beans and rice. A jazz brunch on Sunday expands the offerings to include omelets, pancakes, and other comforting fare. Although reservations aren't mandatory here, they are a good idea.
769 W. Fifth St., LaPlace, Louisiana, 70068, United States

This retail smokehouse has some of the best Andouille Sausage ever tasted. Hard smoked & spicy. Recently traveled to New Orleans, and toured Plantations along River Road. Was not only impressed by the smokehouse offerings of Andouille, Smoked Sausage, and smoked Dog Bones, but throughly enjoyed brunch.

Overall User Rating: Bakers Pride BCO-E1 Cyclone Series Electric Convection Oven Single Deck - 10,500 Watt ( 4.6 stars from 7 reviews )
This oven is a tempting price, but it definitely comes with some caveats. I wish the spacing inside was a little better measured for standard-sized baking trays. It does take a while to get to temperature, and the built-in timer has quickly become nonfunctional (it gets stuck).
Desirae L. from The Cupcake Doctor Posted on 06/18/2015
So happy with this oven choice. I did miss that it has to be hard wired to the wall but it was worth it. Bakes evenly more than enough rack space.
Saidah F. from Olivia Rose Confections, LLC Posted on 06/02/2015
Very good oven for the price. We use ours 6-8 hours a day and have had it for 6 months with no issues. Only complaint is interior light is dim so we have to open the door to check on food.
Sarah S. from The Coffee Company Posted on 11/09/2014
It is my first convection oven and very happy we ordered it... It baked evenly. At first we need to practice a lot but now we got the trick and learned how to make it work. All are friends are raving about how fast it can bake!
Alfred S. from Cre8tive Cupcake Posted on 05/03/2014
The restaurant I work for has this oven, and it truly is the best kind I've ever had the pleasure of using. It always provides consistent products and we haven't had any sort of problems with it.
Alessia D. Posted on 04/07/2013
This convection oven is so great! It bakes all things completely evenly, and it doesn't seem like there are any hot spots. I love using this oven.
Dorothy T. Posted on 11/03/2012
So happy we decided to go with this oven. It's very heavy so be prepared with the necessary gear to be able to transport this upon delivery. It doesn't come with a power cord so just plan on buying that for it. Instructions kind of suck but I called their customer service during install and it literally took 3 minutes to get my question answered. What was my question you ask? "How do you install the power cable." Answer = There is a screw at the top of the control panel on the front right of the oven. Unscrew that screw and you can pull that whole panel out to get to the connections for the power cord. Oven shipped fast. it is plenty big on the inside and comes with mounting parts to stack another oven unit on top of it when needed.

In many ways, New Zealand has admirable oversight of human genetic and reproductive technologies. Its Human Assisted Reproduction Technology Act of 2004 prohibits reproductive cloning and inheritable genetic modification, and genetic selection is limited to preventing inheritable disorders. An independent bioethics council offers advice, a committee proposes detailed policy, and another committee regulates the fertility industry and must approve certain controversial practices. Violating the law is a punishable crime.
The Bioethics Council, known as toi te taiao, recently solicited input and released a report on genetic selection [PDF]. It recommends allowing prospective parents to use sex selection through PGD for family balancing.
While the fertility industry appears supportive, politicians are tepid and everyone else appears opposed. The New Zealand Herald - the nation's largest paper - found little support for the proposal from the "person on the street." The director of the leading academic bioethics group, Donald Evans of Otago University's Bioethics Centre, said that approving sex selection would be
winding the social clock back in New Zealand by at least a generation and a half.... There have been huge battles fought in New Zealand for gender equality - that is, refusing to value or dis-value a life in terms merely of its gender. Huge victories have been won. [Social sex selection would be] very much against the spirit of these important changes. So I'm very puzzled that the report says there is insufficient cultural, ethical or spiritual reason to prohibit this, when certainly New Zealand has been moving absolutely in the opposite direction for a generation and a half. Maybe their inquiries didn't come up with any further evidence but they certainly chose to ignore this crucial social evidence, which is characterised by our society becoming a more just society over these past 30 or 40 years.
Any hint of the heinous practice of sex selection being permitted will inevitably pave the way to genocide against communities with conditions that are preponderant in one gender or the other. It takes a rather thoughtless breed of eugenicists to recommend this thin-end-of-the-wedge approach to introducing what will end in tragedy if the recommendation is not killed off immediately.
Gene of the Week: American Exceptionalism
In a column from a few weeks ago, conservative pundit Michael Medved asserted that various peculiar American cultural characteristics, including our economic success, are due to genetic differences. Citing two recent books, he claimed that risk-taking among immigrants to America likely had a genetic component, one that is shared by their descendants here today. I've not read the books, but from my vantage point there are numerous significant flaws with this logic. Hypoid Logic covered many of the bases. At the very least, a cultural reinforcement of risk-taking seems an adequate and potentially superior explanation - particularly considering that a process like migration is unlikely to be a sufficient founder effect or population bottleneck for such a complex behavior.
But I can see the appeal of this logic to people such as Medved and Gregory Clark, author of A Farewell to Arms. It not only assuages successful Caucasians, whom many conservatives feel are the real victims of postmodernity. It even offers a guilt-free explanation of why dark-skinned people often remain poor. Thus, the current conditions for Native Americans and blacks are not due to the genocide or slavery carried out by the ancestors of contemporary American whites, but instead due to the absence of voluntary migration in their histories.
In the News this Week
The Telegraph (UK) looks at IVF at thirty years, highlighting the rise in "soft" and "natural" egg extraction.
The California state government has requested that several consumer genetic testing companies cease offering their services to state residents.

Australia expands stem cell research to cloning and reprogramming
Scientists in Australia may become the next to try obtaining stem cells from clonal human embryos. After the federal government removed its moratorium, teams of researchers from Monash University and the Australian Stem Cell Centre applied for licenses to proceed from the Embryo Research Licensing Committee. The committee met last week, but decisions have not been released.
The big question remains vague: How will the researchers obtain the human eggs? Media reports say that the eggs will be leftover from fertility treatments. But since all eggs are typically exposed to sperm during IVF, leftover eggs are rare. Granted, some fail to fertilize, but these appear to be bad candidates for cloning work. Will these instead be from an "egg sharing" arrangement, in which a woman or couple receives a discount on IVF in exchange for providing a portion of the extracted eggs to stem cell researchers. Australia bans payments for eggs [PDF], but so does the United Kingdom, which recently approved such an arrangement.
Media coverage was, unfortunately, thin and occasionally misleading:
Scientists want permission to use eggs left over from fertility treatment to clone human embryonic stem cells, in order to study a number of diseases including Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis.
The green light for the controversial science could lead to cures for the afflictions in less than 10 years.

The green light for the controversial science could lead to cures for the afflictions in less than 10 years.
Ironically, other researchers at the Australian Stem Cell Centre are now the first outside of the US and Japan to work with reprogrammed stem cells, also known as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). This method is not only rapidly emerging as an alternative to embryonic stem cells, but also gradually sending cloning-based stem cell research to a quiet death.

Bias against women in science reared its ugly head last week when the preeminent conference for theoretical chemistry posted a list of two dozen confirmed speakers without including a single woman.A group of female scientists promptly called for a boycott, but faced backlash from a prominent chemist who dismissed their efforts as "nonsensical" and "trendy whining about supposed 'gender inequality.'"More on that in a bit, but first some background. The International Congress of Quantum Chemistry is held by the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Sciences and scheduled for June in Beijing next year. When the conference revealed its initial speaker list (since taken down from the website), every one was male."It happened again — another major theoretical chemistry conference features an all-male program," reads the boycott petition, which was written by theoretical chemists Anna Krylov, Emily A. Carter and Laura Gagliardi and received 835 signatures within a few days.Read it all here.
An apology came from the President of The International Congress of Quantum Chemistry. Apologies should be followed by actions to correct wrongs. Let's hope that happens.

28 year old man | Loma Portal, CA, USA | Seeking women 22-29 within 50 miles of Bay Park, CA
Looking for the real deal.
I am from Southern California, but the Anaheim area. I just moved back from Virginia. I love barbecue, awesome craft beers, and country music. Besides family and friends, what else do I need? Well, that special one that I can call mine would definitely be nice! Do I think this site can help? Couldn't tell you, but I'm up for anything if it meant I can find her. More about me, I am definitely comfortable in my own skin. I have a tendency to put my foot in my mouth, and won't hide it. I always have a smile going on, because you can't sweat the small stuff, it's all small stuff! I prefer quality, not quantity when it comes to those I hang out with, and I can say that those I've surrounded myself around are the best quality of friends one could ask. It's just unfortunate that I have a hard time getting outside my circle of people, which is why I thought this would be a viable option. I am laid back, I don't let things get to me. If people can't make time for me, I don't get upset because life happens, and it's not always about me. I am pretty as unselfish as I can get, and I don't do it to be a saint or anything, I just want those around me to have a good time and I'll do whatever I can to accomplish that! I enjoy movies and tv as much as the next person, and more often than not I'll say obscure references from what I've seen, but if it makes sense in my head. I don't have a problem elaborating, but it's just something I do. As far as her, I am quite aware that you can't always get what you want, but you might find, you get what you need. Honestly, I just want someone I can get along with, that we can have random conversations and can be goofy with each other. I believe that the person you can get along with the best is one that shares your personality. If you can get through the above paragraph, then there is no reason why I'm not worth your time, even if it's just for pleasantries. My friends truly believe I am a catch for any lucky woman, and I've had my fair share of dates, but if you try to force what just doesn't work, you're going to have a bad time. I know she's getting here as quick as she can, I just have to be patient. Can I find her here? That would be nice, but if not, I won't be disappointed. Sometimes you have to go with it, don't think about it too much. Sometimes you have to roll with it, get out of that ordinary everyday rut.
Camping , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports
Baseball, Basketball, Running
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I like Dogs
Middle of the Road
My backyards is my favorite spot, it's where I put my off-set smoker barbecue to good use, making awesome meat for family and friends! Outside of that, a sit-down bar where I can watch sports, listen to some country music and hang with friends.
Family and friends! Barbecue and awesome craft beer! Louis CK is the greatest comedian! I enjoy my TV shows, from House to How I Met Your Mother! Jurassic Park is my favorite movie!
Enjoy the bar scene, love to barbecue and hit the beach. I'm always down for karaoke! Sports: Baseball, Football and Basketball...in that order!

Stung By Wasps AND Suffering From Lyme Disease: I Can't Catch A Break
You know that funny, itchy feeling when something is crawling around or worse, lodged where it doesn't belong?
At last count I've climbed 4,296 mountains, cut down 6,387 trees for firewood and planted 11,091 replacement seedlings, kayaked 13,417 rivers, run 96,216 miles, moved 147,281 rocks and been bitten by 2,866,802 mosquitoes — but who's keeping score?
The mosquito part gets pretty old, but I never get tired of revisiting my favorite stomping grounds. As many times as I've scaled Mount Washington or paddled to Fishers Island it's always an adventure.
Still, I've always been eager to explore new horizons, so when I look back at 2012 I can take particular pleasure in some of the fun activities I tried the first time.
Last September I competed in my first triathlon, and while I'll never be an Olympian I did manage to earn a bronze medal in my division.
A decade or so ago I swam with a friend about 3 miles from Groton Long Point to Fishers Island. Last summer I joined a group that swam from Fishers Island to Noank.
I also kayaked with two friends for the first time in one of the most scenic waterways in New England, the Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge on the Maine-New Hampshire border. We saw a bald eagle dive for a fish within 30 seconds of setting out.
I also hiked for the first time across the Badlands in South Dakota and also climbed with my son, Tom, to the highest summit in that state, Harney Peak. We also scaled 10,243-foot Mount Washburn in Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park, another family first.
I've visited Zealand Hut in New Hampshire's White Mountains many times, but until last year, never on cross-country skis. My big mistake on that January trip was lugging a plastic sled behind me that got pretty well chewed up on the rocks, but live and learn. Next time I'll stick to a pack.
I also joined two Day colleagues, Jenna Cho and Peter Huoppi, for our first day-long hike the 23-mile length of the Narragansett Trail, from Lantern Hill on the Ledyard-North Stonington border to Ashville Pond in Hopkinton, R.I. It was en elegant, if exhausting, outing.
During OpSail 2000 I had kayaked alongside the Parade of Ships from Niantic to New London; last year I paddled back over the same route with some of the same friends to witness a smaller fleet of tall ships.
My buddy Ian Frenkel and I also defended our title as tandem kayak champs at the Essex River Race in Massachusetts, but a scheduling conflict prevented us from returning for a second gold at the Blackburn Challenge. We'll try again next year.
Just before the ground froze a few weeks ago I planted garlic for the first time, and hope to start harvesting it next spring, after I plant table grapes for the first time.
I also refurbished my compost pile. The fun never stops.
This Jan. 1, as I noted a couple of weeks ago, I'll start the year the same way I've begun the previous 40-odd, joining a mob of friends on a run and swim in Fishers Island Sound.
I also hope to set out on some new adventures the rest of the year. As always, I'll keep you posted.
Happy New Year!

The turtle has an ill-deserved reputation for lethargy.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/19/12
WASHINGTON - In the basketball-loving nation's capital area, the letter "W" stands for Wizards or Washington, but not wins -- not yet. The Washington Wizards established a franchise-worst 0-9 start as the Indiana Pacers snapped a six-game road losing streak with a 96-89 win over the Wizards on Monday. Despite a furious second-half rally, Washington broke its previous mark of eight straight losses to open a season set during the truncated 2011-12 campaign. David West scored a season-high 30 points and Roy Hibbert broke out of a prolonged slump with 20 points and 12 rebounds as the Pacers (5-7) held on despite blowing most of a 20-point, third-quarter lead against the NBA's only winless team. Wizards' rookie Bradley Beal scored 17 of his team-high 18 points in the second half, including nine during an 18-2 third-quarter surge. Trailing 69-49 with 5:08 remaining in the quarter, the Wizards scored 16 consecutive points behind the backcourt combination of Beal and newly signed Sh...

In association with 'Stow College
Will be presented by Pete Mullen and associates, namely TrafficCone Records (Mark McGee,) and will include a 1 day showcase on Easter Sunday April 24th of a combination of live bands, digital production artists and DJ's, live in-store @ Cruise Jeans, followed later @ Bar Pivo Pivo.
Cruise Jeans – Ingram Street, Glasgow - 2pm – 6pm
Pivo Pivo – Waterloo Street, Glasgow - 6pm – 12am
Stow College will be providing support from their media students in the live engineering, media recording and promotion of the event. A perfect chance for the students to spread their wings in a live environment.
Bands will include
Glasgow based 4-piece The Imagineers have enjoyed a very successful year since their debut gig in the spring of 2010.
The bands energetic Live shows combined with their well-crafted melodies have earned them favourable reviews from national papers 'The Daily Record' and 'Evening Times' as well as mainstream radio play in Scotland and the U.S on BBC Radio 1's Introducing with Ally McCrae and on Clyde 1 with new music DJ Jim Gellatly.
The band's first release, a double A-side single, featuring signature songs 'Mariana' and 'Fairground' was released on September 3rd through Independent label 'Sunstone Records' and digitally via ITunes.
2011 has already been busy year for The Imagineers as they began recording their debut EP in Glasgow's renowned CaVa studios in early January with producer Brian O'Neil.
The Soviets are a five-piece hailing from Scotland (and they are certainly not the Soviets from Sheffield, another band who inexplicably come out top in a Google search). 'I Gotta Go' is their debut single, but you'd be forgiven for thinking it was about their tenth for the level of confidence they appear to have on the track. They don't seem like the kind of band who are messing around – no gentle warm up intro, no soft vocals, no easing us into the Soviets' way of life. It's straight into a ridiculously paced song, which turns out to be three minutes of absolute gold.
Lead singer Stephen Law sounds like everything that was great about music from the 60s. He conveys so much energy that at times it seems improbable that the guitars and drums will be able to keep up, but they do, crashing through your ears like an uninvited guest. Guitars are courtesy of Jamie Cairns and John Forsyth, while Sean Doyle tackles the bass and John's brother Stephen (keep up) is on drums. They probably practised for about two minutes before they recorded 'I Gotta Go' – it sounds like a brilliant happy mess of a song.
MATT FOTHERINGHAM (Playing his last ever solo show)
Matt Anthony is an acoustic singer songwriter from the small town of dumbarton, just outside the Glasgow area. His music is a mix of soulful melodies and meaningful lyrics. Matt is currently working on his debut album "let your ears open your eyes", which is his interpretation of his life and relationships in a musical form. Let your ears open your eyes will be available WINTER 2010/ SPRING 2011 thanks to EYC and ali whitty@the den! Matt also has a gr8 team behind him with industry guru Jim lawn mentoring him, photographer Johnny mclung who will be doing the album art and poster designs! Matt hopes to firstly print 100 copies of the album and sell them with the proceeds going to charity! If u like what u hear please become a fan and leave a comment! The music and songs are about matt but they are here 4 u!:)
DUBSIDE (Pete Mullen, De_Phect &Lu Angel)
'Dubside' is a Glasgow collective featuring De-phect, Pete Mullen and Lu Angel. Sounds and material range from reggae to dub to electro/tech house.
Pete Mullen is 8yrs on the circuit with a heavy resume as a promoter ,producer and DJ with his eclectic taste it's hard to tie him down to one style and you'll find him playing a variety of genres from Reggae to trip hop from Dub to Tech house, Acid, Tribal beats and on and on. He excels in pushing the boundaries of a live set and you'll often find him playing with a wide variety of musicians. He's been resident DJ at 'Luminous', 'Rectify', 'UFreak', 'The Basement', 'Osmosis', 'The Unit' and appeared at a score of festivals including 'Equinox' and the 'Summer Solstice' during which he's had the pleasure of gracing the decks beside 'Dave Clarke', 'Miss Kitten', 'Slam', 'Green Velvet' and 'Dave Angel'. You can find him on
De-Phect has been playing on the Glasgow scene for 9 yrs. starting his career with 'Big Noize'.He's featured in nights such as 'Jamma' , 'Rectify', 'Hell', 'Basement','Minimise','Luminous', 'Amo Casa' and 'Level 32.'Appearing at a variety of Venues from 'The Unit' to 'The Arches' and he took on the Subcity Radio Bangers and Mashup, securing his place as a true Dub Militant.

On November 4, the SEC approves the NYSE's new corporate governance standards for listed companies, requiring boards of NYSE-listed companies to have a majority of independent directors, and requiring that nomination, compensation and audit committee consist solely of independent directors.
NYSE Concludes Governance Changes
The NYSE concludes a far-reaching reorganization of its corporate governance, ensuring greater transparency and independence of NYSE board members. The Exchange's new governance features a fully independent Board of Directors; a Board of Executives composed of constituent representatives to advise on NYSE marketplace issues; an autonomous Chief Regulatory Officer; and separation of the CEO and Chairman roles.
Regulation National Market System (Reg NMS)
This Securities and Exchange Commission regulation is designed to modernize and strengthen the national market system for equity securities by fostering competition among individual markets and guaranteeing the best price to customers.
FINRA Created through Consolidation of NYSE Regulation and NASD
NYSE member firm regulatory functions, including related enforcement activities, risk assessment and the arbitration service, merge with the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) to form the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The NYSE retains independent regulation functions governing the NYSE trading floor, listed companies, rule development, and market surveillance.

30 years of 'Nutcracker'
Director of Corpus Christi Concert Ballet has played major role as leader of group since '76
The classic story of Clara and the Nutcracker Prince comes to the stage of the American Bank Center Selena Auditorium this weekend as the Corpus Christi Concert Ballet presents Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker."
This year is the company's 30th year performing the classic ballet, which has become a holiday staple in the Corpus Christi community, said Artistic Director Nancy Sulik.
"It's become one of those traditional things the family does each Christmas," she said.
The 30th anniversary is a milestone for Sulik, who has been in charge of the performance each of those 30 years.
"Each year, we try to do something different, whether it's with costumes or choreography," she said.
All of Sulik's company, a group of about 20 ranging in age from 12 to college-aged students, are in the performance. An audition was held in September to complete the cast of about 125.
The full cast includes children as young as 3 years old, drama students from Del Mar College and adult volunteers, usually parents, Sulik said.
The cast will perform twice this weekend and also will perform a special free matinee for more than 5,000 area students at 10 a.m. and noon Monday.
For a twist on the 114-year-old ballet, Sulik turned to guest choreographers Abelardo and Susan Trevino, who teach at Incarnate Word University in San Antonio.
Sulik and the Trevino decided where to make changes after reviewing tapes from previous years. Most of the new choreography comes in the second act, Sulik said.
Guest artists from the Orlando ballet also will perform, she said.
Another innovation since the ballet's first performance 30 years ago is double-casting, Sulik said.
This year, the role of Clara will be split between Meredith Whitehurst, 13, and Kassie Kelly, 14.
Meredith, who's been dancing for 10 years, longed to play the role of Clara. In fact, it was one of the reasons why she wanted to join the company.
"It's a fun role," she said. "You get to act a lot and dance a lot there's so many different scenes."
Meredith has practiced 23 hours a week for nearly five weeks to perfect her role. She performs on opening night.
Kassie has performed in the ballet the past five years, but this is her first time as Clara. She and Meredith take turns practicing with the rest of the cast at the studio on Alameda Street.
Kassie said she's excited to take the stage Sunday.
Her favorite scene is the battle between the Rat King and the Nutcracker Prince.
"It's a lot of fun and a lot of action," she said. "I get to jump on top of the Rat King."
- 1802: Alexander Dumas Pere was born in Villers-Cotterets near Paris. He wrote a revised version of "The Nutcracker" and the Mouse King titled "L'Histoire d'un Casse Noisette" (The Story of a Hazelnut-cracker).
- 1816: E.T.A. Hoffman published his book "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King." This work was not intended for children; rather, he intended to show the depraved and desperate side of mankind.
- 1818: Marius Petipa, choreographer of "The Nutcracker," was born in Marseilles, France. He was the first ballet master to the Tzar of Russia. He is credited with ushering in the golden age of classical ballet. His ballets included "Sleeping Beauty," "Swan Lake," "La Bayadere," "Don Quoxite" and "The Nutcracker."
- 1840: Peter Tchaikovsky, composer of "The Nutcracker," was born in Russia.
- 1890: A. Vsevolozsky, director of Imperial Theaters in Russia, planned to produce a new ballet version of "The Nutcracker." This came about because of the success of the ballet "Sleeping Beauty." He also planned to use the same choreographer (Marius Petipa) and composer (Peter Tchaikovsky) from "Sleeping Beauty" for "Nutcracker."
- March 1892: Tchaikovsky premiered the music for "The Nutcracker Ballet Suite" before the ballet was produced. This eight-part concert version of the ballet music was a success. At least six times, the audience demanded immediate encores of specific music selections.
- Dec. 18, 1892: "The Nutcracker's" world premiere was at the Maryinsky Theater in St. Petersbury, Russia.
- 1940: Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo was the first to present a shortened version of "The Nutcracker" in the United States. The choreography was by Alexandra Fedorova, a former Maryinsky dancer.
- February 1954: George Balanchine choreographed a full-length version of "The Nutcracker" performed by New York City Ballet and presented at the New York City Center.
- 1976: Corpus Christi Concert Ballet performed "The Nutcracker" for the first time under the direction of Nancy Sulik.

On behalf of the executive leadership team at Focus on the Family, we want to notify you of the decision to suspend the Focus Leadership Institute's (FLI) summer semester program and general operations, effective February 27, 2015. Although our hearts are heavy over this necessary course of action, we are thankful to the Lord for what He accomplished through FLI over the course of its almost 20-year run.Since FLI started in the fall of 1995, an amazing 3,277 students have graduated from the program, representing 750 institutions in 13 countries and all 50 states. Many of those young men and women went on to become gifted leaders and innovators in their fields, equipped to "engage their calling with biblical conviction," as stated in FLI's mission statement.This decision has been carefully and prayerfully made. FLI has had the privilege of influencing young minds for Christ for 20 years, and many people played a significant part in the process of helping students become the leaders of the future. We firmly believe that God will continue to work through the efforts of the students who journeyed here.The closing of FLI chapter does not mean that Focus will cease to engage with college students, however! We are currently working on a more robust internship program for undergraduate students here at the ministry. In addition, we are exploring ways to expand the online presence of valuable FLI content through our partner colleges and universities across the country. Topics specifically related to marriage and parenting have already gained interest with several institutions. We'll have more information on these initiatives once the details have been ironed out.Thanks once more to everyone who partnered with FLI in shaping the hearts and minds of the next generation. Although we're sad to see this season end, we're grateful to the Lord that it was such a productive endeavor. God bless you!Sincerely,Ken Windebank Dr. Robert Thomason Chief Operating Officer Professor, Leadership Studies

TechNet Plus Direct
Ok guys, a friend of mine is debating me about TechNet Plus Direct from Microsoft. He says its too good to be true...that you can't possibly buy a subscription from Microsoft to download full non-expiring versions of both Office and Windows for $349.00 without some sort of catch since that is the cost of buying Windows retail alone.
I tried to explain that you really can do this and that the software will not expire after the first year. He even read the Technet webpage and still thinks it can't be true. He argues that if it were, then everyone would be doing this.
I don't yet have a TechNet Plus Direct subscription but am planning to get one after "7" is officially released.
You guys that have used TechNet Plus Direct care to chime in on the true facts?
Re: TechNet Plus Direct
It is correct. I've got different "Visual Studio Team System Team Suite with MSDN Premium" subscription which basically covers anything Microsoft has ever produced (with this subscription you can generate unlimited Vista/W2k8/SQL Server/Visual Studio/Office, etc. licenses by clicking a button, if you need them for development), but they all work the same - you are entitled, within your subscription period, to download copies of SW that your subscription covers.
And even if you do not renew your subscription after 1 year, your licenses are still valid, and you even still have access to downloads published within that (now expired) subscription period.
You usually also get SW sooner (comparing to general public RTM releases), and you may be entitled to priority support, etc.
Technet/MSDN subscription is a very good deal.
Re: TechNet Plus Direct
The keys are full installs and no time bombs. It is regular software just like everyone else gets. The difference between technet and retail is licensing. The reason you are allowed to run any copy of Windows and office is because you are evaluating and testing the software. You can evaluate it as long as you need to but you cannot transfer your copies to anyone else. The software is only for the user who buys the subscription. The retail version you can sell or give to someone if you get rid of the pc, any technet installs you cannot. Also, you wouldn't be allowed to use technet for a business, but retail installs you could.
So if you want something for personal use to test all of the goodies there is no better way than technet. I run Server 03 and Server 08, XP, Vista, Office 07, MS SQL and a few other things from my subscription. By evaluating the software before it even comes out I can use my personal knowledge to my advantage at work. If you think about it this is were MS really shines with Technet. I'm much more inclined to suggest MS products over other competitors because I know how it works.
Re: TechNet Plus Direct
To add: MSDN licenses cannot be used for production runs, they are for development purposes only. Ie. you can test e.g. Exchange server locally (as many copies as you wish), but you cannot install it on your production server and let it handle incomming emails on regular basis. Same applies to SQL Server 2008, etc.

Critical Essay by Catharine Savage Brosman
Although a number of scholars have noted the presence in Jean-Paul Sartre's fiction of images of insects and crabs, the role of numerous other animal images in La Nausée and their psychological and philosophical suggestiveness have not been fully explored. In the present essay I shall be concerned to study these in relation to its thematics and to draw some conclusions concerning Sartre's early view of nature. (p. 107)
In La Nausée, I count some 77 similes and metaphors in which an object or the human body—usually the latter—is compared in part or in whole to an animal or a part of an animal…. In addition, they are supported by at least 43 instances (excluding those in fixed locations) where names of animals or their characteristics occur in a non-comparative...

HKDL : Done !!!
and all we get is a giant winking mickey pumpkin for halloween :/
flower gleam & glow...
I think you meant to put this in the Hong Kong Forum and not the Anaheim one!
Not anxious to die Sir, just anxious to matter.
So DL's Murphy isn't really broken, it is actually a conspiracy to take her to HK.
And I agree, that is nice and we get a giant pumpkin Mickey.
Stalking is when two people go for a long romantic walk together but only one of them knows about it.
Looks great. All it needs is a little fire
Hong Kong's castle was the first to be modeled after Disneyland's, at this point the only resort with their own design is DLRP. Although i still think their castle should be the Beasts
Trips coming up:
May 22-26th
July 13th-18th
November 19th-25th
This is just my humble (but capriciously jaded opinion.) It's limited movement combined with the location gives off that mall display vibe. I'm just saying, within fantasmic; it's thrilling. Sitting in the hub; it's a photo-op.

I want one!!!!
I love the stuff HKDL is doing ... Can't wait to get back over there.
Am I the only one that pictured that thing doing a nose-dive over onto the people posing for photos in front of it?
