Enough Travelling
09/26/07 at 09:35 AM ET | Comments (0)
from the Buffalo News,
Buffalo Sabres managing partner Larry Quinn said he wasn't the only one surprised when TV and radio analyst Jim Lorentz decided to retire Tuesday.
"It sounds like he was, too," Quinn said Tuesday night from New York City. "It happens to a lot of athletes before the start of a season. You look in the mirror and say, 'I can't go anymore.' It happened to Jim. I don't think Jim knew really until it was time to get on a plane back to Buffalo."
Quinn said he believed Lorentz remains at his summer home in Newfoundland, where he enjoys fishing after the season ends. Quinn added that Lorentz telephoned before the preseason games began to say he wouldn't be there at the start. He called again Monday to say he was retiring because he had enough of the traveling after 43 years as a player and broadcaster.

from the Tennessean,
They're headed for Fort Campbell, Ky., where the Predators will spend the day doing team-building exercises with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment.
"It will be very enlightening to our players,'' Coach Barry Trotz said. "They'll be challenged in a lot of different ways that are a little out of their element. It's a combination of physical and mental things.''

Rafalski Enjoying Offensive Freedom

from the Windsor Star,
Though he hasn't been the point producer Schneider has been in his career, Rafalski has been a steady 50-point man on a New Jersey team that wasn't noted as an offensive juggernaut.
"It's a big difference," Rafalski said. "You have more freedom to jump up, join the plays. I like it.
"It's like going back to how I played in Europe. It's going to take me a while to get back in that mode."

Electric Blade
09/26/07 at 08:43 AM ET | Comments (0)
from the Toronto Star,
Gretzky is plugging a new, battery-warmed skate blade that melts ice to give its wearer — so the endorsements contend — more speed with less work and overall, a better hockey experience.
Hey, is it too late for the Leafs to place an order?
The Thermablade inventor, Calgarian Tory Weber, says the steamy steel is not a novelty item, like Cooperalls, nasal strips or pyramid power. The 43-year-old, who spent more than $5 million over five years to bring his idea to market, believes the "fairly simple physics" behind the electronic blade will revolutionize hockey for competitive players.

Downie Suspended
09/26/07 at 08:17 AM ET | Comments (0)
from 640am in Toronto,
The NHL has suspended Flyers rookie Steve Downie following a vicious hit on Senators forward Dean McAmmond last night.
Downie was handed a match penalty for attempt to injure. He is now indefinitely suspended by the NHL, pending a review of the hit by the league. Downie was the victim of a clean hit from Christoph Schubert before he immediately got up and sought revenge on McAmmond in the Flyers zone.
See the hit in this post...
added 6:54am, from the Ottawa Sun,
"There's no place in the game for that stuff," a seething McGrattan said after the game. "That was a dirty hit and he's a dirty player. He's known for that and he'll get what's coming to him next time we play him, for sure.
"You don't want to see stuff like that. We're not out there to kill each other. At this level, he'll get what's coming to him."
Update September 27, 7:40pm ET:
Just a note that Downie contacted McAmmond to offer an apology. From The Star,
A phone call of apology from Steve Downie has earned the Philadelphia Flyers prospect some understanding from Dean McAmmond but not from the rest of the Ottawa Senators.

William Wirtz Dies
09/26/07 at 08:12 AM ET | Comments (0)
from the Chicago Blackhawks,
It is with deep sorrow that the Chicago Blackhawks announce that team President, Mr. William W. Wirtz, 77, passed away early Wednesday morning at Evanston Hospital after a recent battle with cancer.
Mr. Wirtz is survived by his wife, Alice, five children, Rocky, Gail, Karey, Peter and Alyson, and seven grandchildren.
added 8:31am, from Chicago Business,
Wirtz often said his goal was for the team to win another Stanley Cup, but he was not known to spend lavishly on the team.
His steadfast refusal to get into bidding wars to acquire the services of the game's best players earned Wirtz the nickname "Dollar Bill." That image changed somewhat when the club signed goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin to a four-year, $27 million contract in 2005.

Flames Not Worried
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
09/26/07 at 12:20 AM ET | Comments (0)
From Eric Duhatschek at the Globe & Mail,
Halfway through training camp and the Calgary Flames have yet to win a game and no one seems unduly concerned — and why should they be? They are a mostly veteran bunch, led by a coach, Mike Keenan, who has been around forever and understands how ultimately meaningless exhibition play can be.
The goal, all along, has been for the Flames to hit the ground running for their home opener on Oct. 4 against the Philadelphia Flyers. In the meantime, Keenan has been installing a new system while trying to get a cursory look at a handful of the organization's prospects, few of whom will be around when the puck drops for keeps.

McAmmond Suffers Concussion
09/25/07 at 10:44 PM ET | Comments (0)
via TSN,
Ottawa Senators forward Dean McAmmond left the pre-season game against the Philadelphia Flyers on a stretcher in the second period after a vicious hit to the head by Flyers forward Steve Downie.
McAmmond had just passed the puck and was skating behind the Flyers net when Downie leveled him with a shoulder to the head. Downie, who was hit into the boards earlier in the shift by Christoph Schubert was given a match penalty - which means he is suspended indefinitely pending a review.
McAmmond has been diagnosed with a concussion, but he is moving his extremities and has been sent to a hospital for further examination.
Update 12:35am ET:
From Allan Maki at the Globe & Mail,
Dirty. Cheap. Needless. Despicable. Those words don't just describe Tuesday night's hit on Ottawa Senators forward Dean McAmmond. They describe the man who delivered it – Steve Downie of the Philadelphia Flyers.
Update 1:08am ET:
Thanks to a reader in the comments of this post, here is the video of the hit on McAmmond:

Conversion Arbitrage: How Does It Work?
By John Summa
In the previous section of this tutorial, we saw that conversions and reversals are three-legged strategies combining stock and options positions. Still remaining with the simplified model, the workings of the conversion strategy will be explained in more detail.
Because a conversion trader buys stock, sells calls and buys same-strike puts (with the same expiration dates), directional risk is removed from the equation. Actually, a conversion is a long stock position combined with a synthetic short stock position, which is created from the short sale of the call and purchase of a same-strike put. (For related reading, see Short Selling Can Be Similar To Buying Long.)
Synthetic Short Stock Combined With Long Stock
As an example, if we constructed an at-the-money conversion, the deltas would be -50 (short call) and -50 (long put), or -100 deltas taken together, and would be exactly opposite the long stock position of 100 shares. This offers a perfect hedge, as gains and losses are offsetting. It is displayed in Figure 1, below.
As mentioned previously, if this can be executed for a net time-premium credit (extrinsic value collected from selling the call is greater than the extrinsic value of the put), an arbitrage profit is available. (Learn more about options strategies in Gamma-Delta Neutral Option Spreads.)
|Long Stock
|Short Call
|Long Put
|Stock Up
|Stock Down
|Figure 1: Any long stock gains are offset by short call/long put losses, leaving a net time-value credit for the conversion arbitrageur. Meanwhile, any long stock losses are offset by short call/long put gains, but also leaving the same net time-value credit for the arbitrageur.
Expiration Day Outcomes
Now we'll break this down for expiration day. If the stock trades higher by options expiration day, the short call expires in the money (ITM) with zero time value; the put expires out of the money (OTM) (assuming the conversion was done using at- or in-the-money calls). The put time value is lost and the call time value becomes profit. The difference between the two is the profit on the trade. The call gets exercised and the stock is called away leaving the trader flat all legs, left with just his or her arbitrage profit.
If the stock trades lower by expiration (again making the assumption of a conversion done at the money) the call expires OTM with zero time-premium and the put expires ITM (also with zero time-premium). The put is exercised and the stock is put to sellers of the puts, leaving the trader flat, with the initial time value credit turned into a profit. (Help increase your success when trading options; read Stock Option Trading Cycles.)
Regarding reversals, the same is true in terms of the net time value (extrinsic value) credit conditions outlined above. Recall that the reverse conversion involves selling the stock short, selling puts and buying same-strike calls (with the same expiration date). Here we have a synthetic long created with the short put/long call options, and this perfectly hedges the short stock position.
|Short Stock
|Short Put
|Long Call
|Stock Up
|Stock Down
|Figure 2: Any short stock up losses are hedged by the short put/long call gains, leaving a net time-value credit for the conversion arbitrageur. Any short stock down gains are offset by short put/long call losses, leaving the same net time-value credit for the conversion arbitrageur.
As displayed in Figure 2, if the stock trades lower by the time of the expiration of the options, the short put expires ITM with zero time premium and is exercised, thus removing the short position. The call expires worthless, out of the money. Again, if the reversal was established for a time-value credit (put extrinsic value > call extrinsic value), this will leave a profit (assuming no commissions, as we do throughout this tutorial) equal to the size of the time-value credit.
Finally, if the stock trades higher by the expiration date of the options, the long call expires in the money with zero time value and is exercised, thus removing the short stock positions. When you exercise a call you get a long stock position. Since you are already short stock, this flattens out the short stock position. (Try a new approach to covered calls, read An Alternative Covered Call: Adding A Leg.)
In this tutorial section, general outcomes for conversions and reversals were summarized. For a conversion where you are long stock, we looked at the results of a stock trading higher or lower by expiration. For reversals where you are short stock, we walked through the same two scenarios. We explained that the resulting profit would depend on the size of the time-value credit obtained in the initial setup of the strategies. In the next section, we will begin working with an example of a conversion with actual prices to demonstrate why this occurs.

1961 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster VIN: 198.042.10002637 In 1961, only two years after becoming the 49th state, Alaska took delivery of its first and only 300 SL. This roadster must have been an exotic sight sitting on the show room floor of Anchorage Studebaker, Packard, Mercedes-Benz. The lucky man who drove away with the rare treasure was Dr. William Sedwick. For the next 42 years the car would make a welcome traveling companion through the Alaska countryside for Dr. Sedwick and his wife, driving the 65 miles from Anchorage to their vacation home on Nancy Lake. In 2003, after only 45,000 miles, the car moved on to a new owner, Gordon Apker of Seattle, Washington. Mr. Apker enjoyed the 300 SL for one year before deciding to press forward with a complete concourse restoration. That daunting task fell on the renowned 300 SL restorer Rudi Koniczek of Victoria, British Columbia. Over the next 3 years Rudy & Company completed a meticulous nut-and-bolt restoration. During that time the decision was made that the bare metal refurbishment would be finished in Weissgau (white-grey) with a complementing darker shade on the rare factory hardtop. Completing the look are the dark green leathe

The Mexican Road Race had been an afterthought, with 300SL production slated to end beforehand, the racing car having accomplished what the factory set out to do.

The Mercedes-Benz R107 and C107 were produced from 1971 through 1989, being the second longest single series ever produced by the automaker, after the G-Class. They were sold under the SL (R107) and SLC (C107) model names as the 280 SL, 280 SLC, 300 SL, etc. up to the 560 SL. The R107 replaced the W113 SL-Class in 1971 and was replaced by the R129 SL-Class in 1989. The SLC replaced the W111 Coupé in 1971 and was replaced by the C126 S-class coupe in 1981. Following the discontinuation of the SLC in September 1981, the 107 series continued initially as the 280, 380 and 500 SL. At this time, the V8 engines were re-tuned for greater efficiency, lost a few hp and consumed less fuel- this largely due to substantially higher (numerically lower) axle ratios that went from 3.27:1 to 2.47:1 for the 380 SL and from 2.72:1 to 2.27:1 for the 500 SL. From September 1985 the 280 SL was replaced by a new 300 SL, and the 380 SL by a 420 SL; the 500 SL continued and a 560 SL was introduced for certain extra-European markets, most notably the USA. Also in 1985, the Bosch KE Jetronic was fitted. The KE Jetronic system varied from the earlier, all mechanical system by the introduction of a more modern

1986 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Recreation by Ostermeier s/n 658761 Black with Tan Leather Interior Because the 300SL Gullwing is one of the most iconic classic cars there is, it is no surprise that they are well into seven figures now. They have always been desirable, rare, and expensive, and for this reason, Tony Ostermeier opened a facility in Gardena, California called Gullwing Car Company. There, approximately 50 hand-crafted and impressively accurate Gullwing recreations were built in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They are in fact so accurate and well-made that some of his reproduction parts were used during the restorations of genuine 300SLs. Under the skin, the cars featured modern Mercedes running gear, mostly from the contemporary W124 300E, including drivelines, suspension, brakes, and fuel-injected 3.0 liter inline-6 powerplants. The bodies were made of aluminum reinforced with aircraft epoxy/fiberglass, and steel, and the shape for it was molded off an original 300SL Gullwing to ensure the accuracy of its forms. The specification was modern, including 4-wheel disc brakes, air conditioning, and full leather interiors. This particular example has covered 16,000 miles

• Year: 1957
1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster s/n 198.042.7500568 Fire Engine Red with Tan Leather Interior The 300SL was one of the most exotic cars available when it was new. Directly descended from racing cars, and chock full of innovative features, they were fast, beautiful, and expensive. Arguably the first 'supercar' ever (others claim that honor should be bestowed upon the Lamborghini Miura), the 300SL has been described as the McLaren F1 of its day. Thanks to Mercedes' development work during World War II in aircraft engines, the300SL became the first production car to feature fuel injection (directly injected into the cylinders no less), and the light but strong spaceframe necessitated the now legendary and often copied upwards opening doors on the closed variant of the car. The result was a stunningly beautiful but also functional car that was, depending on gearing, the fastest production car in the world. Surrounded by separate frame carbureted contemporaries, the SL was truly a glimpse of the future and remains today a very special car indeed. Its appeal is timeless and consequently, 300SLs have remained 'blue-chip' collector cars that are always in demand and perhaps even cultural

Let's face facts: 300SL Gullwings and Roadsters have skyrocked in price over the last few years, so if you're going to plunk your money down to own one, make sure it's got a pedigree like this one. This spectacular Roadster has had just two owners for 95% of it's life and has gone a mere 77,000 original miles. It has its orignal, matching numbers engine, is still in its original colors, has all of it's original books, tools, jack, spare, radio... etc. Best of all, all of these facts are supremely well documented with copious receipts going back to virtually new. Over the years, expert servicing has been performed by 300SL luminaries Jerry Hjeltness, Steve Marx and Paul Russell. It doesn't get better than that. Price is SOLD

Anderson Varejao a Possibility for Boston Celtics?
The Boston Celtics obviously could use some more size in their lineup and an interesting name that could be available is Anderson Varejao of the Cleveland Cavaliers. As expected, the Cavaliers are not in contention for a playoff spot and it would probably make good business sense to sell high on him to gain another young asset. They are in full rebuilding mode and winning games might actually hurt them as they desperately could use another top five draft pick. It seems like Varejao is still somewhat young, but he is currently 30 and is consistently on injured reserve.
Varejao is having an excellent season, averaging nearly 15 points and 15 rebounds a game. He has a great chance at making the All Star team and perhaps even starting. He would be a great deadline acquisition for a number of teams, including the Celtics. The problem the Celtics are in is that they definitely need another post player, but at what expense? If they are anticipating playing Lebron James and the Miami Heat in the playoffs, then a small ball lineup is the way to go. But if you are trying to just survive the season and build depth, then acquiring someone like Varejao would make sense.
What would this type of move cost the Celtics? I think the asking price would be very steep and Avery Bradley would probably have to be part of any deal on Cleveland's end. I think the Celtics would probably hang up the phone and look elsewhere. If the Cavaliers were willing to trade Varejao for say, Courtney Lee, Jeff Green, and this year's first round pick, then I think the Celtics would become much more interested.
It will be interesting to see what happens with Varejao once the trading deadline approaches. If the Cavaliers can get a nice young piece back, I can definitely see them pulling the trigger on a potential deal.

Chapter 2, "By Our Hands, the Hat of the Wizard", gets into how humanity had gotten off the track by seeking power independent from God using the subconscious Latent power of soul; an area forbidden from the Garden of Eden. Our only task is the surrender of the subconscious mind using our conscious mind which Paul the Apostle called "our reasonable service" found in Romans chapter 12. It gets narrowed down to our "free will", or willingness, not will power.

(April 10, 2014) -- The 2014 UTSA Fiesta medal is available now for $4 at Roadrunner Express at the Main Campus. Purchase your medals now while the supply lasts.
This year's UTSA Fiesta medal features an orange ribbon with the UTSA wordmark and "Fiesta 2014" beneath. The Rowdy head logo, also a removable pin, is displayed over a San Antonio skyline. When removed or moved to the ribbon above, a smaller Rowdy head is displayed and the San Antonio landmarks are visible.
According to the Fiesta San Antonio Commission, pin and medal collecting and trading is one of the most popular Fiesta traditions. The medals tradition goes back at least 50 years, but no one is exactly sure how the tradition began.
Each year, more than 100 nonprofit organizations order and sell the items as fundraisers. Local military organizations, private companies, individuals and other institutions also create the medals as mementos.
Fiesta medals can be sent to UTSA Downtown Campus departments via campus mail or picked up at the Main Campus. For out-of-town buyers, medals can be mailed with an applicable shipping charge.
Roadrunner Express is on the University Center Paseo between the fountain courtyard and Rios Golden Cut Salons. Payment can be by interdepartmental transfer (IDT), Visa, MasterCard, Discover, UTSACard or personal check with identification. Store hours are 7:30 a.m.-6 p.m., Monday-Friday.
For more information, email email@example.com or call 210-458-6159.
Robert Penn Warren said: "How do poems grow? They grow out of your life." That is certainly true for Carmen Tafolla. An associate professor of practice with the UTSA College of Education and Human Development, Tafolla has authored more than 20 acclaimed books of poetry and prose, including "The Holy Tortilla and a Pot of Beans." It won the Tom´s Rivera Children's Book Award in 2009.
Tafolla is a San Antonio native who grew up on the West Side. Attending a private high school, she realized that the literature did not positively portray her community or the people who lived there. She determined to change that in her writing. In published works for both adults and children — more than 200 anthologies, magazines, journals, textbooks and readers in four languages — Tafolla reflects on the rich Mexican-American culture of San Antonio in which she grew up.
Did you know? Tafolla was San Antonio's first Poet Laureate, from 2012 to 2014, and currently serves as the Poet Laureate of Texas.

'All I could see when I looked in the mirror was a horrible, crooked face': Woman tormented by body dysmorphia conquers demons by becoming an underwear model
- Roxy Drummond, 24, from Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire, was bullied
- Became obsessed with looks and was diagnosed with body dysmorphia
- 'All I could see when I looked in the mirror was a horrible, crooked face'
- Took multiple selfies for social media in search of reassurance
- With encouragement, Roxy entered a modelling competition and won
- Embarked on career professionally and confidence soared
A woman who suffered from crippling body dysmorphia has overcome her illness by becoming an underwear model.
Roxy Drummond, 24, from Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire, used to be so self-conscious about her appearance that she applied a full face of makeup every night before going to sleep.
After years of cruel comments from school bullies who called her 'ugly', she became obsessed with her looks and would spend hours scrutinising herself in front of the mirror.
Scroll down for video
Roxy aged 16, when girls would tell her she was ugly and looked like a boy (left), now aged 24, and a lingerie model (right)
The brunette spent up to three hours a day applying makeup and even refused to open her front door unless she was wearing false eyelashes.
In 2013, Roxy was diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder - a mental condition in which the sufferer obsesses over their appearance and sees a distorted image of the way they look.
She became so anxious that she couldn't leave the house and would scrub her face until it was raw in a bid to get rid of what she thought was chronic acne.
Roxy said: 'The girls at school made my life an absolute misery and I dreaded going in every day. Sometimes I would pretend to be ill so that I wouldn't have to face them.
'All the girls would come up to me and tell me that I was ugly and looked like a boy.
'I had no confidence whatsoever and absolutely hated myself, and this self-hatred continued long after I'd finished school.
'Eventually I developed an obsession with every little flaw in my appearance. I had crippling anxiety every time I had to go outside, so I barely left the house.'
Last year she was finally diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder
Roxy, a size 8, was constantly told by friends and family that she should become a model, but because of her warped vision of herself, she never believed that she could make it.
Roxy said: 'All I could see when I looked in the mirror was a horrible, crooked face.
'I particularly hated my nose, which I thought was long and wonky - like a witch's.
'That, combined with all the non-existent spots that I could see on my face, just made me feel like a disgusting monster.
'I couldn't bear to look at myself, so I couldn't understand why anyone else would want to look at me.'
Despite hating her appearance, Roxy developed an obsession with taking selfies and would post them on Facebook and Twitter in search of reassurance from her followers.
Posting up to three new profile pictures a week, Roxy was showered with compliments from followers telling her how beautiful she was.
One leading psychiatrist said the majority of patients he sees with Body Dysmorphic Disorder take a lot of selfies.
Dr David Veale, a consultant psychiatrist in cognitive behaviour therapy at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust and The Priory Hospital, said: 'Two out of three of all the patients who come to see me with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) since the rise of camera phones have a compulsion to repeatedly take and post selfies on social media sites.'
Roxy, who volunteers for a local charity, says: 'What people don't understand is that I wasn't taking selfies because I love myself.
'It's because I had to obsessively check that I looked okay before I could go out. Plus the likes and nice comments made me feel less self-conscious about my appearance.
'I suppose it is a bit attention-seeking, but everyone likes to be told that they look nice, so I don't see the problem.'
With encouragement from her friends and family, Roxy entered a modelling competition and won. The buzz she felt from winning made her decide to beat her anxiety once and for all and she embarked on a professional career in modelling.
Roxy said: 'People find it strange that I say I'm anxious about my appearance, but can pose for raunchy shoots. And I can completely understand where they're coming from.
'I suppose it does sound a bit silly when I say I'm shy and then strip off to my underwear.
'But something just happens when I'm in front of a camera. I feel so much more confident, and for that hour or so I forget about obsessing about the way that I look.
'The photographers are always really encouraging too, and that's a real confidence boost.'
Roxy developed an obsession with taking selfies and would post them on social media for reassurance
BDD is characterised by a preoccupation with one or more perceived flaws in appearance, which are unnoticeable to others, according to the BDD Foundation.
As well as the excessive self-consciousness, individuals with BDD often feel defined by their flaw.
They often experience an image of their perceived defect associated with memories, emotions and bodily sensations - as if seeing the flaw through the eyes of an onlooker, even though what they 'see' may be very different to their appearance observed by others.
Sufferers tend repeatedly to check on how bad their flaw is - for example in mirrors and reflective surfaces - attempt to camouflage or alter the perceived defect and avoid public or social situations or triggers that increase distress.
People with BDD can find themselves housebound or seeking out needless cosmetic surgery. They are also at an increased risk of suicide.

Roxy hopes to grace the pages of FHM and Esquire, and her boyfriend supports her
With hopes of gracing the pages of FHM and Esquire, Roxy claims that modelling and the support of her boyfriend, labourer Josh Wilmot, 23, has helped her to overcome her insecurities.
Roxy said: 'Body dysmorphia is not something to be ashamed of, and there is help available.
'Along with my modelling, I have also taken part in CBT counselling - which has really helped.
'I'm concentrating on my modelling career at the moment, but I'd love to go to university and study for a qualification in psychology.
'Body dysmorphia is such a misunderstood condition, and it'd be wonderful to try and help people who are going through what I have.
'I just want people to know that it doesn't have to control their lives, and they can go on to achieve their dreams.'
While she's concentrating on modelling at the moment, Roxy also wants to study psychology one day

LaCie 2big NAS
LaCie clearly knows what it's doing with hard drives, particularly when it comes to designing enclosures that appeal to Mac users. The newest addition to its lineup is a drive case called 2big NAS, which is available either as an empty enclosure for $299, or pre-filled with 6TB of storage for $649. It's being positioned as a great solution for small businesses, with remote access over FTP, SFTP, or HTTP file transfer. You can pop in any two 3.5" drives, up to 3TB each, and it comes with support for RAID 1 mirroring.
The enclosure supports both Macs and PCs, with compatibility for Time Machine right out of the box. 2big NAS has one Ethernet port for connecting to your network, as well as one eSATA and one USB port for expanding the storage capabilities; if you're just using the drive at home for media, it can serve as an iTunes server, too. Fans of LaCie's industrial designs should be excited by this one, especially if some spare drives are just sitting around, ready to be tossed into something much more appealing and powerful.

Minnesota Voters
For the first time all winter, I want you to take this question seriously, to contemplate it in its fullest ontological sense:
Cold enough for ya?
Seriously. Look outside. It's ghastly, right? And it will be like this well into April.
For too long (and coincidentally in the midst of a long economic boom) our leaders told us to do for ourselves. And we are strong, pragmatic Midwesterners, so yah sure we listened. We were persuaded to starve funding for supposedly frivolous arts programs. And even those of us who might have cared didn't.
But somehow this fall, as the Dow cratered and the news stations swapped stock footage of foreclosures in Ohio, as another season of disorder wheezed down our necks, Minnesotans showed up on November 4 and voted yes on the Clean Water, Land, and Legacy amendment to the state constitution. Fifty-nine percent of us voted yes—which means Republicans, Democrats, and even those weird Barkley people.
So Minnesota voters deserve to be Artists of the Year.
Clean water and air and nice trails are great and everything. But in this climate? We. Need. To. Party. And with a .375-percent sales tax bump that will net arts organizations around the state approximately $48 million in 2010 and $54.5 million in 2011, our party people—the artists—will be able to do their thing. Do you have plans to record a CD of the poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millay set to electronica? Do you have a vision of a photographic comparison of Ottertail, Minnesota, and her sister city Nordhordland, Norway? Do you work in the mediums of copper, thread, and hope? Awesome. Come on in. The state of Minnesota will throw your coat on the bed and get you a cup for the keg.
It's brutal out there.

One day? St Georges Day, come on, don't be a wally, they could just drop a bank holiday. Don't tell me you'd rather be working than down the pub celebrating Chris.
Threaten the boss with death by George's flag.
that'll learn him
that'll learn him
B*****ks to that, I wouldn't get paid!
Not DVD related but......... Happy St Georges Day, may it become a national holiday and what a great excuse for a piss up later. Cheers.
