In Collaboration with the Washington Sculptors Group & the Washington Project for the Arts
May 19 - July 17, Curator's Talk Sat. June 25, 3pm
Terrace Gallery
Saturday, June 25, 3 pm : Curator's Talk with Ernesto Santalla, AIA, LEED AP, Studio Santalla, Inc. CURATORS Welmoed Laanstra, Public Art Curator, Arlington Cultural Affairs Sara Reisman: Director, Percent for Art Program, New York City Department of Cultural Affairs Ernesto Santalla: DC based architect, interior and graphic designer.
Artisphere, Washington Project for the Arts (WPA), and Washington Sculptors Group (WSG) have partnered to present Contain, Maintain, Sustain, an exhibition which was conceived to take stock of the ways in which concerns around sustainability are being articulated and visualized by contemporary artists today.
Curators Welmoed Laanstra, Sara Reisman, and Ernesto Santalla selected a group of 24 international and locally-based artists to present work that activates and complicates the local/global dynamic that has historically framed ideas about reuse and conservation of environmental resources.
Participating artists include Jane Benson (Brooklyn, NY), Michael Booker (College Park, MD), Greg Braun (Hartwood, VA), Carlos Bunga (Barcelona, Spain), Michael Cataldi (Brooklyn, NY), Ronit Eisenbach (Takoma Park, MD), Gregory Euclide (Le Sueur, MN), Tom Greaves (Washington, DC), Rachel Higgins (Brooklyn, NY), Christopher K. Ho (New York, NY), Mariah Anne Johnson (Washington, DC), Morgana King (New Orleans, LA), Barbara Liotta (Washington, DC), LoVid (New York, NY), Mary Mattingly (New York, NY), Jens Praet (Florence, Italy), Cordy Ryman (New York, NY), Katrín Sigurdardóttir (New York, NY), Dan Steinhilber (Washington, DC), Tattfoo Tan (Staten Island, NY), Katja Toporski (Takoma Park, MD), Lina Vargas De La Hoz (Silver Spring, MD), Julia von Eichel (Brooklyn, NY), and Ishmael Randall Weeks (Brooklyn, NY and Cusco, Peru).
The exhibition title, Contain, Maintain, Sustain, implicates artwork as the matter of contemporary life, proof of our existence. Like the slogan "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle," Contain, Maintain, Sustain suggests a cyclical and circular arc in the ongoing transformation of material and content that is embedded in many of the works in the exhibition. The notion of sustainability—including acts of ecological remediation—is realized through projects by Mary Mattingly, Michael Cataldi, Tattfoo Tan, and Jens Praet. These artists explore how reconsidering once-used objects can lead to innovative design solutions, while other artists—Michael Booker, Dan Steinhilber, Katja Toporski, Cordy Ryman, and Mariah Anne Johnson—look at the ways in which literal reuse and repurposing of everyday objects test the use value of art itself. Projects by Morgana King, Lina Vargas de la Hoz, and Rachel Higgins address containment of material like fuel, textiles, and trash through very differently scaled experimental architectures, questioning how we hold it all together.
Working in sculpture, installation, video, and collage, Ishmael Randall Weeks, Katrín Sigurdardóttir, Carlos Bunga, Jane Benson, LoVid, Tom Greaves, Christopher K. Ho, and Gregory Euclide reflect on a new cultural and ecological landscape which affords, and, at times, requires an exploration of the possibilities for transformation of disused recognizable objects into fantastic terrains. Attempting to sustain a sense of balance and temporality, Barbara Liotta, Ronit Eisenbach, and Greg Braun all work site-specifically within the framework of the Artisphere's architecture to reveal contemporary, real-time examples of art that is at least partially defined by the contours of its superstructure.

"The sight of anything
extremely beautiful, in nature or in art, brings back the memory of what one
loves, with the speed of lightning." - Stendhal
A peculiar syndrome related to the viewing of art
has been documented as far back as 1817 and was officially given the name
Stendhal Syndrome in 1979. Although the condition does not yet appear in the
American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders, it has been taken seriously enough to be studied by a research team
in Italy who systematically measured reactions of viewers to the artworks
inside the Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence.
The disorder was named after French author
Henri-Marie Beyle (1783-1842), also known as 'Stendhal.' After visiting
Florence in 1817, Stendhal wrote about his intense reaction to the artwork he
had viewed: "As I emerged from the porch of Santa Croce, I was seized
with a fierce palpitation of the heart; the wellspring of life was dried up
within me, and I walked in constant fear of falling to the ground."
Italian psychiatrist Dr. Graziella Magherini, who
later named the syndrome, documented 106 cases of art viewers admitted to the
hospital in Florence between 1977 and 1986 suffering from severe emotional
reactions. Their symptoms included rapid heart rate, dizziness, fainting,
confusion, nausea and, in extreme cases, hallucinations. The trigger for the
condition was the viewing of artworks that are perceived to be of great beauty.
Stendhal wrote: "Absorbed in the contemplation
of sublime beauty...I reached the point where one encounters celestial
sensations...Everything spoke so vividly to my soul. Ah, if I could
only forget. I had palpitations of the heart."
The disorder is also known as Florence Syndrome.
Doctors have long debated whether it really exists, but the staff of Florence's
Santa Maria Nuova hospital report that they have grown accustomed to treating
patients suffering the symptoms of Stendahl Syndrome after admiring the statue
of David and the artworks of the Uffizi Gallery along with the other cultural
treasures of Florence. Whether these are people of great sensitivity or just
exhausted travelers is not known. What is known is that great art seems to
provoke great emotional responses.
Be careful out there.
And be sure to join us
for more interesting and informative articles at The Artist's Road.
--John and Ann
I am an artist. While living in Honolulu I frequently visited the galleries in Waikiki. On one visit I was told that upstairs was an original work of Albrect Durer but only the financially qualified could view the piece. I did not see the art but knowing I was in close proximity made my heart start racing, felt faint and tears came forth. He is one of my favorite artists. I was 28 yrs old at the time and very healthy. This syndrome is not related to exhaustion.
Well this was an interesting post; insightful. One question we can ask our selves as artistss is, can we knowing create art that has this/these effects on people? My answer would be, no, as beauty goes, even profound beauty, it is in the eye of the beholder.

UNHCR Tries to Count Somalia's Displaced
NAIROBI – As the United Nations prepares to mark World Refugee Day on Wednesday, the UN Refugee Agency is struggling to put an exact figure to the number of internally displaced people inside Somalia. The country's displaced population is constantly on the move in search of humanitarian assistance and a peaceful environment.
The UN refugee agency, or UNHCR, has said that there are about 1.35 million displaced people inside Somalia, but that number is only an estimate.
Speaking to journalists in Nairobi, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Representative for Somalia, Bruno Geddo, said his agency has faced a daunting task to give an accurate number.
Mr Geddo said that displaced families move frequently, and satellite images are only able to pick up the temporary, makeshift shelters, which remain empty most of the time, except when there is a distribution of aid.
"Satellite imagery cannot estimate how many people are actually living in each makeshift shelter," said Geddo. "They can only count the shelters but cannot confirm how many people are inside. And therefore it's a very imprecise measure of science, a very approximate rough estimation."
Geddo notes that humanitarian aid agencies use this satellite imagery for a working figure to provide assistance to the displaced, and not the exact figures of the population in a given area.
He said the refugee agency is planning to carry out its own ground surveys in the Afgoye corridor – home to tens of thousands of displaced Somalis – to try to determine the exact number of Somalis in the 30-kilometre stretch.
"We will try to get access into the Afgoye corridor to do ground surveys and to try and see if we can do better than satellite imagery alone," said Geddo. "But it will remain a challenge because the gatekeepers will continue to provide figures which do not correspond to reality."
In some areas the gatekeepers are al-Shabab militants who still control parts of southern and central Somalia.
It may be hard to get an exact number of people displaced in a given area, as the frontline of the military offensive against al-Shabab shifts from one region to the other.
For the last few months, African Union forces have been announcing their offensives in advance, to give people time to get out of areas under military operation.
According to the UNHCR, displaced people have cited a number of reasons why they left their villages and towns. Some of the IDPs expressed fear of being forcibly recruited to fight for al-Shabab. The rebel group has also increased taxation on the already-suffering population in areas still under its control, especially the Juba and Shabelle regions.
But the group has been dealt a blow both militarily and financially by the African Union forces and Somali government fighters, and after losing vast amounts of land it once controlled.

College of Charleston just got a little bit deeper in the paint.
The Cougars received two verbal commitments Monday from forwards Glen Pierre Jr. and Donovan Gilmore.
Pierre will play for the Cougars next season, while Gilmore, just a junior in high school, will be a part of the Cougars' 2014 signing class.
Pierre, a 6-11 forward/center out of Oldsmar Christian High School near Tampa, Fla., had signed with Georgia Southern back in November, but was released from his national letter of intent when Eagles coach C.Y. Young was fired in April.
Former College of Charleston assistant coach Mark Byington took over for Young earlier this month. Pierre picked the Cougars over Marshall, St. Louis, Charlotte and James Madison. Pierre is expected to sign with the Cougars on Wednesday.
Pierre joins guard Johnathan Burroughs-Cook, of Memphis, point guard Joe Chealey, from Apopka, Fla., and forward Terrance O'Donohue, of Norcross, Ga., in the Cougars' 2013 recruiting class.
"When I went to Charleston, it felt like home to me," Pierre said in a telephone interview on Monday. "I got along really with coach (Doug) Wojcik and all the players. I really felt comfortable there. I wanted to go to a place where I could contribute. Some of the bigger schools were calling, but they all talked about redshirting me my freshman season."
Pierre averaged eight points, six rebounds and three blocked shots last season as a senior.
"Glen has a huge upside," said Oldsmar head coach Jordan Fair. "He's a long, athletic post player that can rebound and block shots. He's going to have to get into the weight room and get stronger, but his potential is off the charts. We had five players off this team sign with Division I schools, and Glen was easily our most improved player from the beginning of the season."
Meanwhile, Gilmore, a 6-7 forward, is just a junior in high school, but committed to the Cougars after an official visit this past weekend.
Gilmore, who picked the Cougars over Old Dominion and Appalachian State, is expected to enroll in the fall of 2014.
"There were a lot of schools that were not happy that Donovan committed," said Wesleyan coach Keith Gatlin, who played at the University of Maryland. "He had some big schools looking at him like Tennessee, Mississippi State and N.C. State, but Donovan is a very loyal guy. Loyalty is huge for him, and coach Wojcik was on him from the beginning. I think they got a steal in Donovan."
Gilmore averaged 8.5 points and eight rebounds as a junior at Wesleyan Christian Academy in High Point, N.C.
"He's going to be a huge matchup problem for teams in CAA," said ESPN basketball recruiting analyst Dave Telep. "He's an energy that can run the floor and get to the rim. If he can develop an intermediate game, he'll be very tough to stop."

text: Brett Phillips knows the hazards of social media all too well. A few years ago, he was fired as a residential assistant for WVUs honors dorm after being tagged on Facebook photos showing him partying with students from his dorm. Yet there was no alcohol, drugs or inappropriate behavior in the photos.[The photos] were just a lot of people solidifying memories in film, says Phillips. Being fired was the last thing I expected after a fun night with my students, he adds.Phillips is one of an increasing number of people whose use of social media has gotten them into trouble with current or prospective employers. Indeed, 69 percent of employers surveyed in a recent study say they have rejected a job candidate because of something they saw on the candidates social network.Reppler, the social media monitoring service which conducted the survey, found that employers often rejected candidates because they had posted inappropriate photos or comments about drinking or using drugs, lying about their qualifications, or simply demonstrating poor communication skills.An employer just doesnt want a bunch of pictures of you circulating that shows you being very unprofessional, says Rachel Holmberg, a counselor at the WVU Career Services who works closely with graduating students. A few pictures that are not very representative of you become representative because when they do a search, thats all they can find.However, the use of social media can also benefit job hunters if done right. According to Reppler, 68 percent of employers have hired someone because of positive things they saw on potential employees social media accounts. Holmberg says 15 percent of job applicants got their job by simply filling out an application and submitting a resume. The other 85 percent knew somebody within the company.Social media is great because it allows you to keep in touch with a lot of different people, people not necessarily close to you that you can touch bases with frequently, Holmberg says.Amy Lockhart used Facebook to promote her cake-baking skills. Her use of social media helped her land her current job as head baker for Naticakes in Bridgeport.I posted [my cakes] on Facebook and it just spread from there. More people kept asking me to do cakes for them, says Lockhart. Its good to post your talents on social media because it makes people interested and you never know what can come from that.Jeffrey Ray, known by friends as Yofray, is the creator and filmmaker of the popular Im Shmacked series that films universities across America. The series is known for its wild college parties. Some students are concerned about how the videos might affect their future. For example, Amanda Keshner, a junior at WVU, says she was filmed by Yofray, but the footage with her in it wasnt released in the final video of WVU by Im Shmacked.If I was in the Im Shmacked video, it could potentially jeopardize my future and all that I worked for at WVU, Keshner says.However, other students note that most people on these videos are hard to identify because there is no name-tagging feature.Holmberg says social networks provide employers with a good first-round elimination of job applicants, so she encourages students to create some privacy on their Facebook and Twitter sites as they approach graduation. For instance, students can use their privacy settings on Facebook to customize who can see their posts or who can contact them. One feature lets users review all posts about them before it will show up on their page.A lot of people go through a clean-up phase, where they go ahead and they make accounts private that they havent made private before, Holmberg says. You dont want to say anything you wouldnt want someone to see. Its not just about your posts; its about everyones posts.(Editors note: For more information about Mountaineer News Service visit the online link at http://mountaineernewsservice.com/)

Google Docs improved the commenting system, by adding support for conversations.
"To start, we've improved the discussion flow by adding ownership and edit rights to individual comments. Each comment now has a timestamp and profile picture. Google Docs doesn't force you to delete comments. Instead, you can resolve comments to remove them from the visible document and view them later by clicking the discussions button at the top of any document," mentions Google.
One of the most useful new features is the support for notifications, which works just like in Google Buzz. Reply to a comment and the author of that comment will get an email notification. He'll be able to answer to your reply from the email interface, without having to visit Google Docs. Google also sends notifications if you're mentioned in a thread.
Unfortunately, discussions are only available for new documents. Google says that the explanation is that the new feature includes "a number of significant improvements".

Below is the poem entitled The War of No Clothes which was written by poet
Jordan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Roger Jordan
At the apex of the world which was where I was created
In the cosmos, I fought for love……..butt naked
I've gone where time was only known by the beat of our hearts
And brothas wonder what' s the difference between a queef and a fart?........
Both are products or results of compression of air pressure
But that isn't the subject matter back to fighting for pleasure
As I reminisced about the death of old school love gestures,
Significant first kisses by un-ghetto named individuals like Diana and Lester,
Taps on the window, the courting and dancing, being soaked to your draws in the rain
Then the romancing……..
They invested in chivalry and called sex emotion
We like no glove mo love! Where the oil and the lotion!
Don't flinch on me people.
I'm fighting for this intimacy with more consistency
I love unlocking couchie with the key
Never B&E, but sometimes down the chimney
They say "santa give me presents. would you put a baby into me. Ho ho. Maybe?
I ran naked, hanging, past the end of the world
Checked all they ID cause women look just like little girls
When the haters say "don't listen to em he's a smooth talka!"
I took my thang and with a swang KO'd the cockblocka
I fought with the might of a thousand men
And the endurance to take on all the freaky women
It was heaven in a dream the first time I saw her
I fought her mind body and soul until she hollered
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! And into her I was swallowed……
We stalk each other so both of us was being followed
Cause we didn't ever wanna feel hollowed………
At the apex of the world which was where we were created
In the cosmos we fought for love……butt naked

Of War and Life: Couple that met in S. Paula anticipate 70th anniversary
On Nov. 15, 2011, Mike and Julia Herrera will celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary, a milestone that may very well be the envy of happily married couples everywhere.
They met when Mike was 24 and were married less than a month before Pearl Harbor was bombed. The tragic events of Dec. 7, 1941, changed not only the world but also the lives of every family who had to say goodbye to a loved one in combat, including Julia.
Mike Herrera left his birthplace of Tyrone, N.M., when he was a young child. His parents had immigrated to the United States from Chihuahua, Mexico, to provide a better life for their children.
"My dad worked in the copper mines," said the 92-year-old man. "He also worked as a baker. He was Pancho Villa's baker before they came to the United States."
They left Tyrone and moved to Arizona for better work opportunities.
"We weren't there long when a friend of my dad's told him about Ventura," Herrera said. "We moved to Ventura but didn't stay very long. Once we found Santa Paula, my parents wanted to move. We all liked it better."
His father began working in the citrus fields and continued his work as a baker. When he finished grammar school, Herrera joined his father in the workplace.
"I finished about eighth grade and that was it," he said. "That's just what we did then."
It was in Santa Paula that he met Julia.
"We met in passing," he said. "She was from here, and it just worked out."
In August 1942, less than a year after he married Julia, Herrera received his draft notice from the Army. He was sent to Camp Robinson, Ark., for three weeks of training. By late October 1942, he was on a train headed to New York. He then boarded a troop transport ship as a member of the 334th Engineer Special Service Regiment. Their destination? Bombay, India.
"They only fed us twice a day on the ship, so we were always hungry," Herrera recalled. "A buddy of mine was Italian, and his mom had made him some sausage before we left. He kept the sausage with him and shared it with me."
They arrived in India on Dec. 10, 1942. For the next year and a half, the 334th worked on building roads that would allow supplies to be transported to Russia. In late June 1944, just weeks after the D-Day invasions in Normandy, France, Herrera and the 334th were sent to Marseille, France, to continue their engineer work, building roads for the Allied forces. Within months, they were sent to Germany.
"There was a lot that happened there that wasn't good," Herrera said, "but we didn't have much time to think about it."
The 334th stayed behind the front lines, reconstructing bridges and roads for the Allied troops that were to follow.
By mid-May 1945, the war in Europe was over.
"They kept us over there for a while," Herrera said. "They had a lineup of guys waiting to have enough points to go home."
Herrera returned home in the fall of 1945, and was discharged from active duty on Nov. 13, just two days before he and Julia's anniversary. They hadn't seen each other in more than three years. It was the perfect anniversary and holiday gift for Julia and their daughter, Irene, who was just 6 months old when her father left for the war.
Soon after he returned home, Herrera began working as a foreman in construction, spending the first 10 years of his career with Barringer & Botke. He retired in 1974.
The memories of combat are still difficult for Herrera to recall, and he quietly picks and chooses what he will share. Though nearly 65 years have passed since the war in Europe ended, the horror of that time has not lessened; the memories have not faded. For some, those stories are never fully told. It's simply too hard, but the tears say it all.

Each time I visit My Thai Restaurant in the DePaul Center, it is a wonderful expereience. The food is excellent, The service is superb. I enjoy the ginger chicken, the mixed vegetables with chicken and the rest of the meals on the menu. I always drink the Jasmine tea which is so delicious. The appetizers are always delicious like the rest of the food on the menu. I always feel that I am at home. The staff is super efficient and provides immediate service. The servers are professional and very friendly and caring. As a regular customer, I want to come again and again. I highly recommend My Thai restaurant (and I have) to anyone who wants to experience the delicious food from Thailand.

Not worth it. Bland food, dry when it's supposed to be in a sauce or dripping in sticky sweet sauce when it's supposed to be dry. Cheap for sure, but it should have been a warning when we went in and there was only 1 other table filled in the whole restaurant. Can't complain about the service, given that we were their only customers... Ok if all you want is fast, cheap, not very good Thai food
Posted by Jessica on 04/22/2011
This place is disappointingl! The wait staff is too busy texting and giggling to care about doing their jobs. When you order food, it comes out in 3 mins - there's no way they cooked Basil chicken fresh in 3 minutes - the food is sitting out cold in the back until you walk in and then they microwave it. I ordered my food spicy and it comes with no spice. They don't care if you aren't happy with food or service. I have been a loyal customer each week for over a year, and when I complained about the bad service, cold food and wrong order, they didn't care! Is that how you treat a loyal customer? Just go elsewhere - they don't deserve your business if they are not going to cook the food fresh, serve it as ordered or care about their customers.. There is another thai place 6 blocks away - it's probably worth the walk!

This place has decent plates of Thai food standbys for the downtown lunch crowd. Don't come here if you're looking for extremely authentic, satisfying Thai food just off the boat. It's a chain restaurant, but it does deliver what it claims, and it's fast. You can get in and out in less than an hour, and the dish you order will likely taste the same each time you purchase it. This consistency and expediency is part of the reason I go here, and I loooove their ginger noodle with tofu, it's really good. The crab rangoon is good, too. If you're looking for authentic, there's not much downtown, but there is plenty in other parts of the city. But if you're looking for a quick lunch or dinner with decent flavor and lots of food (cooked fresh), MyThai is your bag.
Posted by Chi-girl on 09/30/2008
This is seriously the BEST pad thai downtown. Every couple of days I have a hankering for pad thai and My Thai always satisfies the craving. I go there about once a week, if not more. I order pad thai with tofu and extra vegetables on top and skip the egg/peanuts. I'm ordering for lunch today and enticed my co-workers, too!

Ask former Liverpool striker Michael Owen for the first Jamie Carragher memory which springs to mind and his response will include nothing related to football matters.
Both players will retire from professional football when the 2012-13 season concludes this weekend, each bringing the curtain down on highly successful careers.
Much of their trophy glory was shared at Anfield, perhaps most famously during the treble campaign of 2000-01 when Gerard Houllier guided the Reds to victory in the League Cup, FA Cup and UEFA Cup.
The duo struck up a lasting friendship during their fledgling days in the Liverpool youth team and Owen has a wealthy collection of anecdotes to share regarding the 35-year-old.
"Straight away when you think of a story about Carra, you think of the naughty pranks that he'd do in a hotel room," Owen told LFC TV's new 'Carragher' documentary.
"I was fortunate in many ways that I was with him so we were doing the pranks on other people, as well as getting done ourselves. I didn't get too many.
"Anything for a laugh really; it was never to harm anyone, but if you ever ordered room service then he had these wild ideas.
"The knock on the door comes, a sandwich or something, and he said 'Quick, I'll take my clothes off and start doing press-ups in the middle of the floor' just to see their reaction. I think he liked seeing people's reaction, thinking: 'What is he doing?'
"There were a few times when he was doing naked press-ups in the middle of the room when I opened the door for the porter to bring the sandwiches in.
"He would just do it to get the reaction from whoever was bringing it in. That was a typical thing he would do; never any harm, it was just testing people's reactions."
Despite his penchant for pranks, though, Owen revealed that the man who has made more than 700 appearances for the Reds was always obsessed by one subject - football.
The striker continued: "Having a big mate like Carra and breaking into the team at a similar time; he's a little bit older than me but we were both getting into the squad at the same time.
"Back in those days, we used to share rooms. Nowadays everyone is on their own but back in those days we shared rooms so we talked football as soon as we got on the coach straight after training at one o'clock until we got to the hotel at seven o'clock.
"Then right the way through the night - we sat by each other at dinner, we talked to each other until the early hours of the morning and the conversation was always football.
"If I ever had any problems, I'd talk to my dad or Carra and he'd be the same with me. I've seen him at the lowest of the lows when he's been dragged off in games, and seen him at his high points as well.
"After Istanbul and things, I'm pretty certain I was one of the first people he called and vice versa. Some people you just look out for, even when we were playing together.
"If anyone else gets the ball, you're doing what's right and you're showing for the ball. But when he gets on the ball, you're willing him to do so well because you know how much it means to him and he's your best mate.
"In many ways, we have lived each other's career, certainly in the first half of it until I left to go to Madrid. Even then we're still on the phone all the time and we meet up from time to time. That friendship will remain."
Having spent extended time at close quarters with Carragher before departing to join Real Madrid in the summer of 2004, Owen knows the centre-back's strengths better than most.
"In his head, that's his strength. I think it's my strength as well and if you're going to get to the top in your profession - we're all born and you get what you're given in many respects in terms of your body, whether it's fast or slow or robust - once you're given that, the rest of it is in your head and mind," said the former England international.
"He's as tough as they come, mentally. I think that's his No.1 thing - he's so driven, he wanted to be the best, he never wanted to let anyone down.
"He lived in the city so he was fearful that if he scored an own goal or cost us the game or made a mistake, he's got to go and face the fans in his local pub.
"I was obviously a Chester lad so there was a bit of mixture between Everton, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool fans where I live.
"But he was right in amongst it and he felt that pressure; in many ways it drove him on to want to produce good performances for his fans and not to let anyone down."
A new documentary featuring Jamie Carragher's managers, teammates and some high-profile opponents airs for the first time at 7pm BST on Friday, May 24 on LFC TV. 'Carragher' will also be available on LFC TV Online and will conclude a fortnight of tributes across club media.

Flood overwhelms Montana, supplies brought in by ferry
BILLINGS, Mont. -- Emergency workers ferried supplies to more than 300 people cut off Friday by flooding that has overwhelmed Montana towns and caused an estimated $8.6 million in damages to date.
Heavy rain and the runoff from record mountain snowpack have caused rivers over much of the West to spill from their banks. Montana has been hit particularly hard over the past few weeks, with hundreds of homes inundated and scores of roadways swamped.
River levels were retreating throughout the state on Friday, but more rain this weekend was expected to cause flood waters to linger across southeastern Montana.
There, roads washed out by the raging Musselshell River left people in a sprawling rural neighborhood in the hills outside the town of Roundup with no way to get out.
Victim of chimp attack gets a full face transplant
BOSTON -- A Connecticut woman mauled by a chimpanzee gone berserk has received a new face in the third such operation performed in the U.S. and is looking forward to going out in public again and eating hot dogs and pizza after months of pureed food.
Charla Nash, 57, underwent a full face and double hand transplant late last month, but the hands failed to thrive because of complications and were removed, Dr. Bohdan Pomahac, leader of the 30-member surgical team at Brigham and Women's Hospital, said Friday. Overall, her prospects are excellent, he said.
''It will certainly help her tremendously to feel human again,'' Pohamac said.
In February 2009, she was attacked by a neighbor's 200-pound pet chimpanzee, named Travis, which went berserk after its owner asked Nash to help lure it back into her Stamford, Conn., house. The animal ripped off Nash's hands, nose, lips and eyelids before being shot and killed by police.
Memphis dad guilty in killing, dismemberment
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A Memphis man was found guilty Friday of murder after his three children gave vivid testimony about how he stabbed and strangled their mother then dismembered and disposed of her body.
It took less than two hours for the jury to convict James Hawkins, 33, in the killing and dismemberment of 28-year-old Charlene Gaither on Feb. 9, 2008.
The jury next will decide if he should be sentenced to death. A sentencing hearing that began Friday afternoon will continue today.
Kevorkian is remembered for devotion to cause
TROY, Mich. -- Friends, family and supporters gathered Friday to pay tribute to the late Dr. Jack Kevorkian, remembering him for his courageous devotion to the cause of physician-assisted suicide, which cost him his freedom late in life.
More than 150 people attended the chapel service at White Chapel Memorial Cemetery in suburban Detroit before Kevorkian was laid to rest. He died last week at age 83 of a pulmonary blood clot.
Budget deficit moves closer to $1 trillion mark
WASHINGTON -- The federal budget deficit is on pace to break the $1 trillion mark for a third straight year. Record deficits are putting pressure on Congress and the Obama administration to come up with a plan to rein in government spending.
Already, the deficit through the first eight months of this budget year is $927.4 billion, according to the latest report from the Treasury Department released Friday.
Three years ago that would have ranked as the highest ever for a full year. Instead, this year's deficit will likely exceed last year's $1.29 trillion imbalance and nearly match the $1.41 trillion record reached in 2009. The budget year ends on Sept. 30.
Hudson miracle jet arrives at museum
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Two years after a US Airways jet left New York for Charlotte and made a miraculous landing on the Hudson River, it reached its intended destination and future home in a museum.
''My flight has finally come home,'' said Eileen Shleffar, who was sitting in seat 13D when the plane splashed in the river.
US Airways Flight 1549 had just taken off from LaGuardia airport when a flock of geese disabled the engines on Jan. 15, 2009. Capt. Chesley ''Sully'' Sullenberger III safely glided into a water landing. All 155 passengers and crew members were rescued.
HS senior wins car for good records
LAS VEGAS -- A Las Vegas high school senior has won a new car for having good grades and no unexcused absences.
Clark County school officials said 18-year-old Kenneth Gonzalez won a Honda Fit worth about $17,500 through a raffle among the eligible students.
The car was awarded on the last day of school. To be eligible, students needed at least a 3.7 GPA and no unexcused misses from class.

Here is what No. 3 Clemson hopes to accomplish when it plays Wake Forest at 3:30 p.m. at Memorial Stadium:
It's probably unfair to tie Clemson's relative sputtering on offense to its most talented wide receiver. After all, Sammy Watkins was extremely solid in the first half at N.C. State. But it's time for Tajh Boyd's greatest weapon to play like more than a decoy, and this is just the opponent to do it against. Watkins gashed the Demon Deacons for 202 yards and a touchdown in last year's meeting.
The Clemson defense would like to completely prove its renaissance with the toughest of defensive feats — a shutout. The Tigers last blanked an ACC opponent 15 years ago, but Wake Forest was shut out twice last year. Clemson's playing well enough to pull it off. Obviously, it's the wire-to-wire consistency that earns a Something-To-Zero victory.
Kind of an obvious statement, but you hate to win a game easily and lose key players in the effort. The offensive line has been hit with setbacks, and skill players Charone Peake, Roderick McDowell and Jordan Leggett have dealt with their own varying degrees of injuries. So far, Clemson's defense has avoided serious losses.
No real reason to believe Clemson could lose the football game. This game is about shifting from first to second gear and beyond, because more talented teams down the road could give the Tigers trouble, and they'll have to be at their best to avoid the unexpected defeat.
Clemson 56, Wake Forest 10

From the village of Kosharitsa are revealed beautiful panoramic views.
Kosharitsa is a small village, situated in Nessebar municipality, in the region of Bourgas. It is 45 km in northeastern direction to the town of Bourgas and 10 km north of the town of Nessebar and only 7 km in southeastern direction to Sunny Beach resort. Kosharitsa village is situated on the southern slopes of the east Balkan range, 120 m above sea-level. A small river – "Suha reka" flows through the village and pours into the Black Sea.
The climate here is continental with influence from the sea. From the village of Kosharitsa are revealed panoramic views: to the east you can see the old town of Nessebar, to the south - Pomorie Bay and the northern slopes of the Strandja Mountain. If you look back you will see a valley formed between the hill "Biberna" which is next to Kableshkovo village and the slopes of Emine Mountain. To the north there is a forest. The terrain is suitable for mountain biking.
There are many eco-routes offering excellent hiking conditions and the anglers are going to be happy with the great number of small lakes around. The local forests have been dwelled by wild animals, and they are real paradise for the hunters.
The village restaurant in Kosharitsa is a wonderful place that caters for its locals. Unfortunately the tourists have now arrived and I can only hope that the friendliness of the staff will not disappear. The restaurant charges Bulgarian prices and not tourist prices.The toilets definetely need some attention.
Just 10 minutes bus ride from the central bus station in Sunny Beach lies the beautiful little village of Kosharitsa,a real taste of rural life away from the tourist areas,well worth a visit,there is a great restaurant in the centrum where the friendly staff speak very good english,and the food is terrific,try their shopska salad for something light,they have an excellent selection of traditional fayre too,the lamb was mouthwatering,and very reasonably priced,the village has five magazines(shops)each with tables and chairs outside where you can rest and have a beer or refreshments,there is a library,post office,all this coupled with beautiful mountain scenery for the nature lover makes this a wonderful excursion,i would reccomend a visit for anyone looking for a respite from the hustle and bustle,8 out of ten for me
We will greatly appreciate this. It will help us improve the content of this website, so other people know what they can expect.

DuPaul and Cates both honored for life's work
This past month, two faculty members with Lehigh's College of Education were nationally recognized for their professional contributions and outstanding scholarship in their respective fields.
George DuPaul, professor of school psychology and chair of the department of education and human services, earned a coveted spot in the Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder's (
) Hall of Fame. He is one of only two inductees in 2008, joining just 46 other colleagues who have been recognized with the honor since its inception in 1994.
Ward Cates, professor of teaching, learning, and technology and the associate dean in the College of Education, was honored with the Distinguished Service Award by his colleagues at the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (
). Cates most recently served as the group's international president from 2006-2007.
"These two honors reflect a lifetime of accomplishments by George and Ward," says Gary Sasso, dean of the College of Education. "They are held in such high esteem by their colleagues and students here at Lehigh, and have been central to our success as a highly-regarded, research intensive college."
George DuPaul

CHADD is the country's largest and most influential grassroots organization dedicated to individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Most of its 20,000 members are families of children and adults with ADHD—the people most directly impacted by DuPaul's research.
Being recognized by those families, rather than his professional peers, is a particularly meaningful honor for
"I've spent almost all of my career studying intervention strategies that are intended to make a real difference for families who have individuals with ADHD," says DuPaul. "That's why this award is so meaningful. It's given by the people who are the real audience on the front lines—the families who are actually using our research and have a vested interest in its success."
Earlier this semester, DuPaul won the prestigious Senior Scientist Award from the American Psychological Association's Division of School Psychology. That was awarded to DuPaul by his professional colleagues.
DuPaul officially earned a place in CHADD's Hall of Fame at their 20th Annual International Conference in Anaheim, California. CHADD said DuPaul's "work empowers the educational community in a meaningful way so that the complex needs of a challenging population of students will be met."
Ward Cates
Ward Cates
was likewise honored for his lifelong dedication to educational research. He's recognized by his peers throughout the country as a thoughtful and leading advocate for the design of effective instructional technology.
The Distinguished Service Award is the organization's highest honor and is given to an individual who has shown outstanding leadership in advancing the practice of educational communications and technology.
It's a field that has grown significantly since Cates first joined AECT in 1974 as an A/V specialist.
"My colleagues in AECT design instruction," explains Cates. "We examine ways in which learners can best use and adapt to technologies, with a goal to train students to think critically."
"There's such a richer set of resources for educators today," he adds. "And it matters more than ever before how we use these technologies to enhance the learning experience."
AECT is the oldest professional home for educational communications and is known for placing a premium on research that influences both public policy and educational curriculum. Cates has been a member of that organization's international board since 2003 and, more recently, became a member of the Educational Communications and Technology Foundation's Board of Trustees.
"This is truly a special honor," says Cates. "I remember when we were loading film onto 16mm projectors. The field has certainly evolved and I consider myself fortunate to have been a part of it and to have been associated with such a great organization like AECT."

Teen Wolf
What's Teen Wolf All About?
Take it from us: You should definitely catch MTV's hit series Teen Wolf. But if you're still on the fence, here's the quickie rundown of the supernatural drama.
Scott (Tyler Posey) was just a regular guy until one bite changed his life forever.
Now he struggles to understand who he is and what he might become. Is he more wolf than human — or is it the other way around? Whichever it is, it's not going to be easy. Scott will try to control his urges, but mostly he's scared that it's his urges that could end up controlling him.
Teen Wolf is the story of Scott as he tries to walk the line between what he wants and what he can't help from wanting. Will the bite end up being a gift? Or will it be a curse? And what will it all mean for his relationship with Allison (Crystal Reed) — the girl he can't get enough of? Only time will tell if he should embrace his newfound powers, or if he should fear them.
Season 1 is already almost over (boo!), but you have plenty of time to watch (and rewatch) it before Season 2 premieres.

Tzedek vs. Tzedakah: Justice vs. Charity
Both are about righting the wrongs that are all too pervasive in our world.
By Adina Gerver
We Also Recommend
The term tzedakah, commonly understood as "charity," serves as a catch-all for many biblical commandments designed to help the poor, including leaving harvest gleanings and the edges of fields for the poor (Leviticus 19:9-10, 23:22), providing interest-free loans (Exodus 22:24), forgiving loans, and tithing (Deuteronomy 15:1-11 and Deuteronomy 26:12-13). The word "tzedek," which has the same root as tzedakah, appears carrying its now-common meaning of "justice" for the first time in Parashat D'varim. Though closely related linguistically, these two concepts each hold up a different ideal of righteousness in the Torah and in the eyes of the Rabbis.
Relationship & Proximity
One way that the obligation of tzedakah has been articulated is through a prioritization of giving based on relationships and proximity. Reading the commandment to "lend money to My people…[and] exact no interest from them," (Exodus 22:24) Rabbi Joseph, a 4th-century talmudic sage, says that the phrase "My people" teaches us that:
"[Given a choice between giving money to] a Jew and a non-Jew–the Jew has preference; the poor or the rich–the poor takes precedence; your poor [i.e. relatives] and the [general] poor of your town–your poor come first; the poor of your city and the poor of another town–the poor of your own town have prior rights." (Babylonian Talmud, Bava Metzia 71a )
This endorsement of prioritization of those closest to you in tzedakah is quite different from the mandate for tzedek that appears in our parashah, where God clearly forbids favoritism in judging legal disputes:
"[Judges must] …decide justly between any man and a fellow Israelite or a stranger. You shall not be partial in judgment: hear out low and high alike." (Deuteronomy 1:16-17)
The Nature of Obligation
Why, in giving tzedakah, are our personal feelings of responsibility for those closest to us allowed to dominate, while in judging–tzedek–we are commanded to ignore those feelings that arise from the very real concentric circles of obligation around us?

Recipe by Linda
"Sugar cookies that look like little slices of watermelon!!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale
Sort stores by
Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
2 cups
all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons
baking powder
1/2 teaspoon
1/3 cup
1/2 cup
3/4 cup
white sugar
1 tablespoon
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
3 drops
red food coloring
1/3 cup
mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups
confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons
3 drops
green food coloring
These cookies were a big hit !!! They are so cute and taste good too. Although I think next time, I might sprinkle a little bit of sugar on them before baking to give them that "sugar cookie" taste.
I didn't follow the directions as written. Instead, I colored 1/4 of the dough green and the rest red. I then shaped the red into a log with a flat bottom, rolled out the green and covered the red log with a thin layer of the green - then refrigerated the log. The next morning, I just sliced the cookies, added the chips and baked - very easy!
These cookies are absolutely tedious, but they are cute as can be. I will be making watermelon slice cookies again, but not with this recipe. I found the dough temperamental to work with, crumbling and cracking all over my board. So I would recommend "Sugar Cookie Cutouts" for the base of this recipe for ease of use and a slightly better flavor. Thank you for the idea, Linda =)

What a tedious cookie to make! But what awesome results! Not for people who like the easy way out. I made it even harder on myself because I didn't have mini chocolate chips so I ended up individually cuting the regular chips in half (insane I know)! But everyone was impressed and they taste great. I washed an empty soup can to cut out the circles and that seemed to be the perfect size baked for 8 min. Cute, cute, cute cookies!
This cookie was a huge success at my daughters 2nd grade garden party. I doubled the recipe easily. The cookies not only looked great, they were very tasty. I had to thin the icing mixture with a bit more water.
These take some time to make, but what a cute cookie to make! (This would be great for kids on a rainy day.) I didn't have the mini chips and i cut my big ones in half like another reviewer, and that is just plain crazy! next time i'll wait til i go to the store! I added about 8 drops of food coloring to the red batter, rolled them out using powdered sugar instead of flour, and baked them for just over 8 min. Take them off the sheet quickly, the ones i let set for a couple of minutes i almost didn't get off the pan. I wanted a little more finished look so i piped a white line (the rine) using a ziploc baggie snipped at the end after I frosted with the green. A made the white (about 1 c powdered sugar and T water) almost too thick to pipe so it wouldn't run over the green. Next time i think i might add some more sugar to the dough (1/4 c), as it wasn't quite sweet enough for my sugar cookie preference. Picture perfect summer cookies! EDIT: these cookies ended up being terribly crumbly. They were perfectly cooked but they just didn't keep well. Would use a different sugar cookie base next time.
just use butter
really fun and easy to make! super delicious! I making this for different occasions! Awesome cookie!!!
A great idea but it didnt work out for me and the frosting made the cookies all soggie and they fell apart plus the cookie part wasnt the best tasting

Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, Achilles befriends the shamed prince, and as they grow into young men skilled in the arts of war and medicine, their bond blossoms into something deeper - despite the displeasure of Achilles's mother Thetis, a cruel sea goddess. But when word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, Achilles must go to war in distant Troy and fulfill his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus goes with him, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.

Roommate Melissa Miller is formally charged with 1st-degree murder in LeAnn 'Annie' Meyer's death
Miller also charged with theft, evidence tampering
PARK COUNTY, Colo. - The roommate accused of killing Wheat Ridge resident LeAnn "Annie" Meyer was formally charged with first-degree murder in Park County court Monday.
Melissa Ann Miller, 54, faces several felony charges -- first-degree murder after deliberation, theft and two counts of tampering with evidence, according to court records.
Miller was living in the basement of the 52-year-old Meyer's home when the woman disappeared in February. Meyer's remains were found July 4 in a rural area of Park County, near Bailey.
Miller was the last person to see Meyer alive. She told some of Meyer's friends in a secretly-recorded video that she dropped Meyer off to have dinner with another woman. Miller said Meyer had a bloody nose, but didn't explain why.
Wheat Ridge police say Miller would not talk to them about Meyer's disappearance, but Miller told a different story when Meyer's friends covertly recorded their confrontation with the roommate before the body was found.
"You guys are friggen' ripping me, and I did nothing. I loved Annie more than any of you," Miller said in the video. "I tried to kill myself. I don't want to live without Annie."
According to the charges submitted to the court by Assistant Park County District Attorney Kathy Eberling, investigators believe Miller killed Meyer between Feb. 10 and March 13, the Fairplay Flume reports.
"Melissa Ann Miller unlawfully, feloniously, after deliberation, and with the intent to cause the death of a person other than herself, caused the death of Leann Meyer," the charging documents state.
The charges also allege that Miller stole between $1,000 and $20,000 from Meyer.
Miller is accused of tampering with Meyer's vehicles, cellphone and iPad in an attempt to destroy evidence, the Flume reported.
Miller next faces a Nov. 27 preliminary hearing, where a judge will decide if prosecutors have sufficient evidence to make her stand trial.

The Mic Mate uses the best of both analog and digital technology and features a fully balanced low noise, low distortion preamp, gain plus a 3-position analog gain control; a special circuit that converts the 5 volts from the USB port to a regulated 48 volts required by professional condenser microphones.
