The new Treeline Stage at Portland's demi-legendary Pickathon music festival.

Portland State's School of Architecture is at it again; this time, instead of the adorable "parklet" the school created in Southwest Portland, they're using cardboard tubes. A collaboration between the PSU School of Architecture and Pickathon has led to an innovative addition to the music festival's "Treeline Stage": 435 giant (20 inches in diameter, 48-72 inches long!) cardboard tubes, commonly used as cores for wrapping or storing sheet steel, come together to form a massive, 25-foot-tall backdrop to the stage, and artfully grouped clusters of the same tubes form the perimeter of the audience seating area.

The students' goal was to create a structure made entirely of industrial materials that are simply on loan from their regular use. After the festival, these tubes, and the 1,800 bolts used to connect them will go back to construction sites and be re-used, leaving no trace in a sense more broad than "take out what you brought in." Travis Bell, Assistant PSU professor, describes the project as a "coordinated backdrop that visually and conceptually anticipates the musical performances that will unfold there."

The venue can hold up to 1,000 audience members and will be the site of performances by Ex Hex, Grandparents, and Summer Cannibals, to name a few. So if you're heading out to Pickathon this weekend, be sure to check out PSU's Treeline Stage. If you're not, listen vicariously through our big full-weekend playlist.

Image: Craig Mitchelldyer

Last Match

Two goals within 22 minutes in the first half doomed the Timbers, who slumped to a 4-1 defeat in Dallas last Saturday. Michael Barrios's first half brace, Kellyn Acosta's 69' screamer, and a Mauro Diaz penalty were countered only by a Fanendo Adi PK.

New signing Lucas Melano came on in the 64' and, in his first appearance as a Timber, was one of Portland's bright spots. The Argentine forward used his pace to draw Ryan Hollingshead into a yellow card tackle and Zach Lloyd into conceding a penalty.

What does it mean?

The loss drops Portland's road record to 3-7-1, with a goal differential of -13. In their last three road games, the Timbers have been outscored 12-1. The West remains tight, and the Timbers are still only four points out of second place. Weirdly, Portland's 32 points would have them in second in the East.

Next Up

There are four teams below Portland in the West standings, and Sunday's opponent, the San Jose Earthquakes, is one. The 7-9-4 Quakes have lost four in a row; in fact, Portland's last win was against this same team, at Providence Park.

Dominic Kinnear's Earthquakes sport the league's second-worst goals total, 22 in 20 games (1.1 goals/gm). They are, however, dangerous at their new home, boasting a strong 4-2-2 record at Avaya Stadium.

The goal-challenged Quakes have their talisman, USMNT striker Chris Wondolowski, back from Gold Cup duty. Additionally, midfielders Sanna Nyassi and Matias Perez Garcia, their assist leader, return to action, making this edition of the Earthquakes much more dangerous than the group that lost in the Rose City, with only 39% of the possession.

Water Cooler Stat

Portland needs 25 points, or 8 wins and a draw to equal their best-in-the-West total of 57 from 2013. With only 6 home games remaining, the Timbers need to get it done away from Providence Park.

Opposing player to watch: Perez Garcia

The 30-year old Argentine midfielder was raised in the same Lanùs youth system as Diego Valeri and Lucas Melano. While diminutive (5'5), the Quakes' #10 has adapted to MLS (and it's physical style of play) in his second year. His 33 completed crosses are fourth-best among midfielders, and with the Timbers being prone as they are to conceding goals off of set pieces, Perez Garcia (with Wondolowski back, to boot) poses a credible threat.

Timber to watch: Lucas Melano

The 22-year old Argentine DP impressed in his 26-minute cameo last week and is likely to get significantly more minutes this match. Caleb Porter, Gavin Wilkinson & Co. brought him in to score goals, and with points on the road a must, look to Portland's shiny new signing to deliver.

The Oregon Symphony sold more tickets, brought in more total ticket revenue, sold out more concerts, had more first-time ticket buyers, more donors, more donor contributions and raised more at its annual gala last season than in any previous season in its close to 120 years of existence, it announced this week.

All this bodes well for Symphony President Scott Showalter, for whom 2014/15 was his first year at the helm. For a taste of next year's delights, mark September 3 on your calendar for the Symphony's annual Waterfront Concert, the largest free concert in Oregon. Last year's concert drew—wait for it—record numbers, so get there early this year for a good spot and make sure to stay put for the grand finale, which promises Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, with fireworks and military cannons.

Portland's nascent Irish-focused theater company Corrib is coming into its own, launching this week its first full season for 2015/16. Having begun with stage readings of plays by contemporary Irish playwrights, this year the company will have three full productions as well as two readings. The season kicks off with Elaine Murphy's Little Gem, a co-production with CoHo Theatre that had a successful run at Kells Irish Pub earlier this year. Christian O'Reilly's Chapatti, a love story between two people in their sixties, will also be staged in earl spring, while Nancy Harris's Our New Girl, a drama about the darker side of modern parenthood, closes out the season next June. The reading series will showcase works by Ursula Rani Sarma, an Irish-Indian playwright, and Mirjana Rendulic, who is Irish-Croatian. More on the upcoming season here.

Who's Getting Your Arts Tax Money?

  You've paid your arts tax (right?), but where is it going? Well, part of it is going to sixteen Portland-based arts organizations, chosen by the Regional Arts & Culture Council as recipients of some of the city's "arts tax" proceeds. The sixteen organizations awarded the grant for General Operating Support divide the spoils—$215,886 in public funding, which comes from the City of Portland general fund and Multnomah County as well as the arts tax—between them. Oregon Children's Theatre received the biggest slice of the pie with $51,160, with $44,740 going to Artists Repertory Theatre, $29,845 going to Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, and $21,953 to Third Rail Repertory Theatre. Other recipients of the grant were: Chamber Music Northwest, Disjecta Contemporary Art Center, Echo Theater Company, Ethos Music Center, Imago Theatre, Independent Publishing Resource Center, Live Wire! Radio, NW Documentary Arts & Media, Portland Columbia Symphony Orchestra, Portland Piano International, Profile Theatre Project, and Write Around Portland.

Guy Fieri could probably charge Anthony Bourdain royalties at this point. The Kulinary Gangsta has been on the receiving end of Bourdain's animus since Food Network viewers first met the spiky-haired celeb-u-chef in 2006.

From "Guytalian nachos" to new show "Guy's Grocery Games," Bourdain—on break from taping CNN's Parts Unknown— still finds much to mistrust in the one-time founder of a joint called Tex Wasabi's.

It was with Fieri that Bourdain opened his one-man show this Tuesday at the Schnitz—played to a packed, beardy, and highly amorous crowd. And, in one sense, it was with Fieri that he left us (before jetting off to Chicago, the last stop in his 10-city Close to the Bone tour).

Bourdain—newly 59, fresh from wrapping production on Season 6 of Parts Unknown, now silver-haired and slim from jujitsu—worked through his monologue with the ease of a man who knows his schtick (the show was heavily sourced from 2001's A Cook's Tour and 2008's Medium Raw).

Moving from the Food Network to fatherhood, organic produce to food allergies, Bourdain won serious applause for lambasting both bacon tattoos and beer nerds (odd, I thought, from an audience sporting a high percentage of sleeve ink and IPAs in plastic cups). Ina Garten got some love/hate. MSG found a friend. And then Bourdain opened the evening to questions (paraphrased, below).

Where did he eat in Portland? Bourdain, apparently, hadn't eaten all day—because jujitsu requires an empty gut. And anyway, he was drinking a beer.

What's up with Timmy McMasters? Avid watchers of Bourdain shows like No Reservations, The Layover, and Parts Unknown may recall frequent invocation of this young naïf who, Bourdain confirmed once and for all, is not real. (Though often violent references to Timmy's fate might be, in part, revenge against a middle school bully.)

Why is he doing this tour? Because it makes him a lot of money, silly lady!

Where else would he live, if not the US? He's a dad now, but if things went very, very wrong? Vietnam wouldn't be a bad idea. Though if confined to a single city for life, Bourdain—like chefs everywhere, he claimed—would choose Tokyo in a heartbeat.

Bacon maple everything is so over; what would be the next flavor trend that he'd retire? Bourdain dodged this question, reflecting instead on positive trends here in America—for example, the ascendance of kimchi, whose funk now serves as "hipster bait." In a nation of immigrants, Bourdain said, corn dogs and apple pie were never the last word in American cooking. Our palates are changing, he said, and things are getting really interesting.

Which, it turns out, was Bourdain's last word. As we filed out into the gorgeous, muggy, Portland night, I thought of a recent conversation with Andy Diaz, owner of Blackbird Wine and Daruma Sushi—and also Bourdain's guide to Puerto Rico in a 2006 episode of No Reservations.

"I think if he just opened his mouth, people would line up to listen," Diaz said. "Now, [on CNN] good food is still really a part of it, but he's got the opportunity to talk more about issues like poverty, socioeconomic things that didn't match the overlay before. If he did the Puerto Rico show now, he'd definitely talk about the standard of living."

Perhaps, then, it's back to the boob tube we should turn for Bourdain's deeper insights. Because this show tasted less like the steak of the tour poster, and more like, say, Bourdain's version of Fieri's well-larded nachos—had 'em before, still seduced by that salt-fat-sugar balance, but really? We know this shouldn't be all we're having for dinner.

From prix fixe to Pickathon & beyond, it's your weekend itinerary—plus more picks below!— courtesy of Portland Monthly's 2015 Summer Guide:

Prep for the rustic Happy Valley hoedown we know as Pickathon by treating yourself to a classy dose of Friday fine dining at the sleekly modern Holdfast, which offers a nine-course tasting menu with the kind of exquisite small plates and wine pairings you probably won't find at Pendarvis Farm's annual roots music jamboree. Saturday morning, get thee Pickathon-bound and (cowboy boots donned and tent pitched) find a choice spot to lay your blanket near the Mountain View stage, where you can wait for just about everyone you know to amble by. Come nightfall, tick off a show at the fairy-tale Woods Stage, and indulge in some late-night stomping in the Lucky Barn. En route home on Sunday, take a detour by Powell Butte Nature Park for a rousing hike to the summit of this extinct volcano, where, if the day is clearer than your head, you'll be treated to eye-popping views of Mounts Hood, St. Helens, Adams, and Jefferson. Back in town, slough off that festival grime with a leisurely dip in the Kennedy School's winningly old-school soaking pool—unless, in your post-Pickathon glow, you'd feel more at home in the clothing-optional bathhouse up the street at Common Ground.

It's one of Portland's most rapidly changing neighborhoods, with new arrivals piling in to share its charms with longtime residents. Now a new photography exhibition in St Johns will showcase members of its community new and old with a portrait exhibition of its many faces set to run for the month of August.

Celebrating St Johns opens in the former Huk Lab store, a pop-up exhibition space that doubles as a portrait studio from August 1. More than 300 portraits will be hung from the rafters, with an old-fashioned small town photo studio also set up in the space, complete with an antique large format camera and backdrop. Exhibition organizer Bobby Abrahamson plans to shoot free portraits of St Johns residents and provide them with a free print, while also adding the new shots to the collection hanging in the gallery.

The exhibition will also feature the work of three other St Johns photographers: Jake Shivery, Zeb Andrews and Faulkner Short. Portland Creative Laureate Julie Keefe will also show work that she and her students have produced in St Johns.

The exhibition also promises a space where members of the community can add their own photographs. "In this way residents will get to exhibit their own photographic celebration of community, and thus the entire neighborhood will take authorship of the exhibition," says Abrahamson.

Celebrating St Johns runs from August 1–29 at the former Huk Lab Disc Golf store in St Johns

Portland's The Fourth Wall has a new album out this Friday on Bug Hunt, Tender Loving Empire's sister imprint, but you can listen to it here first (see below). Lovely Violence is the quartet's second album, but the first since they moved here from Hawaii.

"I'd visited Portland a few times and really liked it, and had heard about the creative community in Portland," says singer Stephen Agustin. "A lot of bands we knew or played with in Hawaii like The Shins and Menomena told us about Portland and we decided to go there and try it out. We ended up loving it."

They recorded all of Lovely Violence here, and according to Agustin, "a good deal of Portland is in there."

The result is a lush, dense package of pop-rock songs with soaring, melodic choruses overlaying crafted layers of sound. "I always liked listening to records that you can re-listen to over and over, where there's not one dominant sound that takes over," says Agustin. "The cacophonist sound was something we had in mind making it, but we were trying to put an emphasis on lyrics and melody also."

The whole record was recorded here in Portland by the band's four members—Agustin and fellow Fourth Wallers Kasey Shun, Paul Brittain, and Max Lilien. "It was completely a culmination of the band's choices," says Agustin. "It's what we always wanted to do—have everything we want and not be constrained by time. So the creative process was a lot smoother."

 Have a listen to Lovely Violence below and let us know what you think.

 The Fourth Wall's Lovely Violence is released Friday, July 31 on Bug Hunt.

Rinker Buck on the Oregon Trail. (Photo courtesy Rinker Buck)

When Rinker Buck took a road trip in 2010, he didn't just slip behind the wheel and put his foot on the gas like your average American road tripper. Instead, he set off in a 19th century wagon with a team of occasionally cantankerous mules, a Jack Russell called Olive Oyl, and his younger brother Nick. Their route? The full length of the Oregon Trail, making them the first to travel it in over a century.

Buck documents the experience in his acclaimed book The Oregon Trail—hailed by the New York Times as an "absorbing" adventure story, and by the Boston Globe as "charming, big-hearted, impassioned and a lot of fun to read". Ahead of his reading at Powell's on Thursday, we caught up with the peripatetic writer to find out why one apparently sane, middle-aged man would travel over 2,000 miles by wagon—and what he learned when he did.

What galvanized you to set off in a covered wagon along a centuries-old trail?

It sounds like an adventure tale but it's really more driven by history. I was in Kansas, working on a journalism story and I came across a trail mark for the Oregon Trail. As a history nut it bothered me a lot that I didn't know more about the trail. Then I started researching it. The thing that's fascinating about the trail is all the things that they don't tell you in history class. I wanted to tell the real history of the trail. Then in one of the history books I came across this statement that the last documented crossing of the trail was 1909. And I thought, why don't I just ride the trail?

Was it hard to make it happen?

My brother and I bought some mules, and over the phone I bought a restored 19th century wagon, and it was that simple. It stopped being that simple the day we left.

So things got challenging pretty quickly...

If I'd known all the problems we were going to have and all the things I'd miss and all the problems I was going to have to solve, we never would have left. The book is sort of an ode to having a dream and then realizing your dream doesn't make a lot of sense, but to actualize it and follow through on it you're just going to have to improvise. And more important than the land we crossed was learning to live with uncertainty. So yeah, I still think it was pretty crazy, but there's a lot to be said for impetuosity.

Were there any moments along the way where you genuinely feared for your life?

There were a few. A few times we had to take bridges across high water. The rivers were so full and the mules would panic when we got up on top of the bridges, because there's nothing in their DNA that prepares them for being 150 feet above the water.

But the single hardest day and most precarious time was when we took the end of the Sublette-Greenwood Cutoff which is a section of the trail in Western Wyoming. We took it up to 8,300 feet and then in less than two miles we had to descend down a mountainside to 6,000 feet. So we made a 2,000 foot descent in about a mile and a half. It was so steep that the mules were so far below us, and we had to chain our wheels so that the wagons would skid along. The wagon was a little over five feet across and this was all on a trail that was seven feet wide. To the left of us was a 300-foot cliff. So if anything had happened, if the mules had got skittish, we would have gone over the side. That descent took us about two or three hours, and the whole way down we were literally one step away from death.

How did the following in the literal footsteps of the pioneers change your understanding of the trail's historical context?

All of us, especially big history readers like me, are creatures of our reading, and I'd always pretty much accepted the idea that Americans were bound to do this, that we were too ambitious and too active—this notion of 'manifest destiny'. But in fact that's not accurate. Many people were homeless because there were successive bank failures, and that drove a lot of people to the trails. Religious rivalries also became so unbearable that people simply left on the trail because they wanted religious freedom. So those are very different motives than 'manifest destiny'. Most of these people were on the trail because they had to be, they were financially desperate or very uncomfortable in their lives.

One day, my brother Nick and I were going along, and it had been a long day, one of those days when the wind was always in your face, or the mules were a little cranky, and we both looked at each other in the wagon seat and said, 'You know, nobody would do this unless they had to. This is too hard.' That was a big insight, because once you know that from riding the trail, your understanding of American history becomes different.

 You highlight the stories of a number of characters from history—pioneers who traveled the trail before you and helped shape the story of America. Who were the standouts for you?

The Oregon Trail

Narcissa Whitman was an evangelist from upstate New York, who decided to go out and 'educate the Indians' as far west as she could get. So she and her husband set off, and she became the first white woman to cross the Rockies. But she sent home a series of letters that were published in newspapers, and those letters led to an explosion of traffic on the Oregon trail in much the same way as Cheryl Strayed's book Wild has done to the PCT. Whitman had this huge impact but she's completely forgotten today.

I was also impressed by Abigail Scott and Margaret Frink. They defied the stereotype of women crossing the trail, which was that their husbands had forced them into it and their role was to ride the wagon all day and hurry the children along. But these pioneer journalists rode across the trail side saddle.

Another character I really loved was named Ezra Meeker—he was the first trail preservationist. He first crossed as a pioneer, made a fortune raising hops, then lost everything and devoted the rest of his life to promoting the preservation of the Oregon Trail. He went out and put stone markers on it, and the fact that the trail ended up being preserved and marked—that would never have happened without him.

Early on you divested yourself of many items—vegetable steamers, your ironing spray, even your GPS. What was it like to return to all of these afterwards? Did any remain permanently decommissioned?

I think the trip actually had a cleansing effect on me. I'm not as into possessions and living in one place and so forth as I used to be. I'm a lot more itinerant now, sort of a vagabond almost, and I find that I like it. I think the trail gave me coping skills that I was going to need pretty quickly in my life, and it taught me not to be so settled, not so worried about what my house looks like . . . just to live.

The Yale Union Building. Photo by Ian Poellet. Image cropped. Via Creative Commons.

Yale Union's latest art show is under construction, and this one is made in France. Kind of.

The Portland gallery is part of a cultural exchange: three curators from Paris are now resident and mounting a show at the Southeast gallery, while Yale Union's executive director and curator are in the French capital to plan a sister show.

The team from Paris's Castillo/Corrales gallery is living and working within the Yale Union building to curate the Portland show, a feat not without its challenges. The gallery's walls largely comprise enormous windows, letting in light from every angle and leaving no room for art to hang. Yale Union solves this problem by erecting custom walls within the cavernous space to build a show from the ground up.

The three French delegates are enjoying the opportunity to work with American artists, who ordinarily would be too expensive for them to bring to Paris. Their planned group show features New York's Jason Simon, Lily van der Stokker who divides her time between New York and Amsterdam, and LA-based Richard Hawkins, who will be giving a talk at the gallery Sunday evening.

Meanwhile Yale Union's executive director and its curator head over to France to plan their takeover of Castillo/Corrales for a show opening September 12. They'll be working with Belgian artist Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven.

The small French gallery—only about as big as the Yale Union's kitchen—is situated just north of the famous Père-Lachaise cemetery, and is run by a rotating staff of volunteer artists and designers.

The Paris-PDX culture swap has been in the works for over six months: getting the timing right was the hardest part. When schedules aligned, both galleries jumped at the opportunity to take on the novel experiment.

As for the Parisians in PDX, they're enjoying the "natural environment" of our "differently-shaped" city. "You can do anything without a car," says a heavily-accented Julien Laugier, gesticulating with an Oreo in hand. He's just come back from a hike in Mt. Tabor, proving an Oregon cultural education is a well-rounded endeavor.

 Theory of Achievement opens Saturday, August 1 at Yale Union.
 What happens when a Portland art gallery connects with a Parisian art gallery, and comes up with a novel idea? A cultural collaboration of swapped spaces, trans-Atlantic travel, and Oreo-eating Frenchmen.

Photo credit Zak Mulligan

In July 2013, two young New York designers published their romantic experiment online. Jessica Walsh and Timothy Goodman were good friends who, finding themselves single at the same time, decided to embark on a dating experiment. As designers, they documented the entire process. The result, the blog 40 Days of Dating, has been seen by over ten million people and counting, becoming an internet sensation and catapulting Walsh and Goodman into the limelight.

Two years on, the two friends have closed the book on their own experiment—with a literal book, 40 Days of Dating, released earlier this year by Abrams of New York—and Walsh has found her own happy ending. She's in Portland this Friday (July 31) to talk about work and play, and caught up with Portland Monthly ahead of time to dish on creativity in life and love, and whether dating your friends is ever really advisable.

You're in Portland to talk about using play in work. How does play inform what you do professionally?

The heart of much of what we do as creatives is discovery through experimentation. Often the best ideas come out of spontaneous play. I think play is a mindset, where I allow myself the space and time to experiment and take risks without being afraid of failure. It's during this time that I create the most exciting work because I am allowing myself the space to push the boundaries of my work. If you don't allow yourself this form of serious play, you often end up falling back on existing styles and techniques you know have worked for you or someone else in the past.

Was that what 40 Days of Dating was about? Did you embark on the project from a creative/professional standpoint or as a personal project?

40 Days of Dating is a project I did with a good friend of mine, Timothy Goodman. . . It is not unusual for creative people to bring their lives into their work. Songwriters, film makers, journalists and artists have been doing that regularly for a very long time. Graphic designers tend to shy away from the personal or using design for expressive purposes. Designers have the skills and tools to communicate with a wide audience. I personally am most attracted to work that has a personal angle, and clearly comes from someones heart. To me content creation and expression through design is just as (if not more) important to me than designing other people's content. I want to continue to spend more time on more personal work like this.

The project had some interesting professional and personal overlap – was that a comfortable space for you?

Not at first, to be honest. We were very nervous about releasing the blog as it has many intimate details about our emotions, our dating history, and even our sex lives. However after seeing the feedback, it's given me a lot of confidence to assert my personal stories and voice into my work more often. James Joyce says: "In the particular is contained the universal," and I really believe this is true. While many of us try to distinguish ourselves as individuals, our emotions are largely universal, across all ages and cultures. By opening up about them and being honest, people were able to relate to us. I find that the work I'm most interested in doing is inspired by the human experience.

 Did it help your work in any way?

40 Days of Dating made me rethink my career and the way I work. Since the launch we've had thousands of people write us about how our story touched them, made them laugh, made them cry, and in some cases even helped change their life. It's amazing and humbling to hear that kind of feedback about something you put out in the world. It reminded me that content creation and expression through design is just as important to me as designing other peoples content. I will always enjoy the challenge of our client work at the studio, however I am now focusing at least 25–50 percent of my time on developing my own ideas, websites, apps, or writing. I'm finding having this balance doesn't take away from the commercial side, but helps with it as it keeps me passionate and inspired.

 How did the book come about?

I think what happened after the experiment ended is so much more interesting than what happened during the experiment. So we kept diary entries for a year after the blog ended. The book contains these diary entries much like the blog did, where you can read our entries side by side. It also contains a lot of other information about love and dating. We wanted to wrap our story into the larger picture of today's dating culture and how we got to where we are. We are byproducts of our generation: 40 Days of Dating would have never happened if we were alive at a different point in time.

Are you and Tim still friends?

Yes! We're best friends, even closer then before. This project and experiment taught us so much about life, love, and each other. While we weren't meant for each other romantically we have a great friendship and creative collaboration. We're currently working on a new project which will be out later this year.

What advice would you give a couple who are friends and considering dating?

We only have one shot in this life, so if you are both curious, go for it! The worst that can happen is that it doesn't work out, you can always go back to being friends.

How has life been since 40 Days? Did it lead to new creative opportunities? Did it help from a relationship standpoint?

They say you can't chase love and perhaps it's true. During the experiment I was stressed out about relationships, working too much, and not living a healthy lifestyle. The experiment (and therapy) helped me realize I just needed to take care of myself. I was in the best state of mind after the experiment ended. I was relaxed, balanced, and carefree. I approached dating that way as well. It's interesting that as soon as I stopped looking for the right person, I ended up finding the love of my life a few months after. We just got married six months ago!

Knowing what you know now, what advice would you give pre-40-days Jessica Walsh?

Don't worry so much about everyone else.

High security means
low-level boredom
Saturday 02 January 2010
Could travellers to the USA be struck down by boredom?
New security measures on flights to and within America mean that on many airlines, during the final hour of flight passengers must remain seated, will not be allowed to access carry-on baggage, or have personal belongings or other items ontheir laps. So no lastminute games on the DS, PSP or iPhone for transatlantic flyers, and jolly dull trips for anyonegoing state to state. The noughtsand- crosses revival starts here.

Make My Movie!—After years of catering exclusively to big-budget Hollywood filmmakers, the State Film Office looks like it's finally starting to get the idea that New Mexico might have a few of its own budding auteurs. Recently, Gov. Bill Richardson announced a statewide short screenplay competiton. If you're an aspiring filmmaker/
Heavenly Discussion—This Friday, Feb. 10, filmmaker Gayle Ferraro, director of the documentary Ganges: River to Heaven, will lead a panel discussion following the film's 7:30 p.m. showing at the Guild Cinema. Joining Ferraro will be Camille Adair-Norwick from Project Life Stories (www.projectlifestories.org). Adair-Norwick will help provide perspective and context on end-of-life care here in New Mexico compared to Indian culture and tradition, as seen in the film. Ganges was filmed in a hospice in the city of Kashi and follows four families as they struggle to fulfill the final wishes of their loved ones. Like the families it studies, the film is closely tied to India's River Ganges, believed by Hindus to be the sacred portal to the afterlife. For more info, log on to www.gangesrivertoheaven.com.

Danish productivity has grown only weakly over the past two decades, both historically and in relation to other countries, despite sound policies and institutions. Denmark needs to continue its efforts to reap the benefits of globalisation, which would contribute to invigorating productivity growth.

text: digg_url = 'http://digg.com/hardware/Panasonic_puts_forth_proposal_for_3D_standard_on_Blu_ray_Dis';For those of you plugging your ears whilst humming along in hopes of this whole 3D revolution fading away, we've got a rude awakening headed your way. Just days after hearing that the HDMI specification could be updated to better handle stereoscopic 3D content, along comes word that Panasonic has submitted a proposal to the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) for an official BD standard to store 3D imagery formed of "left / right-eye two-channel Full HD images." Panny reportedly made the move early in order avoid a format war, but really, it's just looking to cash in on royalties for the next decade five years or less. It's no secret that movie studios are dead set on moving forward with 3D production -- might as well be ready on the other end, right?[Image courtesy of 3DS]

Rosen Nissan helped make these videos
We are still working to obtain content for your car, however the video above is believed to have similar characteristics as your car.
The video above shows you to replace the headlight in your 2009 Mercedes-Benz C300. Headlights grow dimmer by up to 20% over time and eventually burn out - for this reason, we recommend changing your headlights in pairs. Changing both headlight bulbs on your C300 at the same time will allow both bulbs to have the same intensity and prevent the new headlight bulb from appearing brighter than the bulb on the opposite side. In some Mercedes-Benzs, the highbeam is the same bulb as the headlight and it is possible for the highbeam to work, but the headlight be burnt out even if they are the same bulb (and vise versa). Some Mercedes-Benzs have high intensity discharge headlights, sometimes referred to as xenon lights. These bulbs have a very high voltage that runs through them, even if the battery is disconnected. If your C300 has this type of bulb, we do not recommend that you attempt to change it yourself.
When you change the headlight on your C300, it is important to not touch the glass part of the bulb with your fingers because the oil from your fingertips will cause that part of the bulb to burn hotter, which significantly shortens the life of the bulb.

There were 17 people that signed up for city wide rummage sales. While I was taking in a few on the list I noticed many more sale signs here and there. Is it really that hard to part with $5.00 to get on the list? More people on the list would make it more interesting to out of towners to come to Preston.
Thanks to the 17 signers. It helps defray the cost of publishing a list, maps and rummage sale signs. Rose Grebin Preston, MN

Two-in-a-row for New York as Houston falls apart (Video)
Sep 8, 2013, 9:13 PM EDT
Perhaps my memory is failing me, but this might be the worst defensive performance we've seen from a Dom Kinnear team.
It's not just that they gave up four to New York in today's 4-1 loss. And it's not that they gave up those goals at BBVA Compass Stadium, a venue that at one time played as a fortress. It's that it was far too easy for the Red Bulls to use basic execution to leave Tally Hall with almost no chance to prevent the rout.
The first Red Bull goal was a well-placed, well-hit (in an unconventional sense) shot from Eric Alexander, but New York was able to pass right through the middle of New York's defense to set that up. While roster issues that forced Will Bruin into a start at the head of a midfield three might have contributed to the overall result, Adam Moffat and Alexander López have to do better at the base of midfield.
Thierry Henry expended little effort walking through the Houston defense for the second, Mike Chabala just decides he's done playing as Jonny Steele makes it 3-1, while nobody seems to be willing to actually challenge New York as they built Lloyd Sam's 88th minute insurance.
On a couple of the goals, New York looked like they were playing a poorly-prepared college team. It was too early to pull the defense apart. There was too little resistance in the build up. They didn't have to settle for lower percentage shots, knowing they would be able to get at Hall.
What's happened to the Houston Dynamo? Normally reliable players like Bobby Boswell and Moffat are making basic mistakes. Will Bruin still can't buy a goal. They're not even giving Tally Hall a chance to keep them competitive anymore. Kinnear's fiddling with his formation, but it's not going to matter unless these guys start playing better.
It's not that they're a little off their game. These players are bad, right now. Missing basic assignments. Almost open nets being missed. At times, even a lack of effort. Houston's hit rock bottom.
As for New York, this is a great three points to get, but given Houston's performance, there isn't much to learn from the match. Red Bull proved they can take advantage of a bad team, but any team playing at the top of their conference should.
And right now (and perhaps, surprisingly), Houston is bad team. Fortunately for them, Montréal's performance in New England is going to keep them tied on points for the last playoff spot, even if they technically sixth in the East. But right now, they're not the sixth-best team in the East. They're playing more like Toronto and D.C. United than the conference's elite.

Fantastic service for people on vacation. The order I placed on line was waiting at bell services at my disney resort for me when I arrived at checkin. There was no fuss hassle or issues. It Magically appeared !!! Brilliant. Will be using again next vacation. Would thoroughly recommend.
They had everything we needed and it was delivered when they said it would be delivered.
So convenient. I loved coming back from a long day at a Disney park and having groceries waiting for me. We saved tons of space in our car by not having to pre-pack food and avoided the stress of having to stop off at a store before we arrived. I'm would highly recommend this service!!

Re: Jimmy Savile
Actually saw a tweet earlier that said "Why should I pay Licence fee money to a bunch of paedophile protectors?" Yeah, because that's exactly what happened. Jimmy Savile was shagging kids in front of his bosses and they decided to keep it secret, not even kept it secret but defended him to their very last breaths... Oh, wait.
It's easy to point fingers in hindsight, it's easy to believe that people must have known. But basically what you have is what appeared to be an eccentric bloke, doing good work for charity and had rumours spread about him... just rumours that happen to be true.
