text: Rose Light is a light-medium rose pink with yellow undertones. It looks very different from the pot–it almost looks like a coral in the pot. Definitely a shade you have to swatch! Inglot #399 is fairly similar. Giorgio Armani Sweet Fire is less pink. This shade is a repromote from holiday.

conceived of a program to measure intensively the invading wave of chemical tracers from the industrial activities of man. The project was soon dubbed "Transient Tracers in the Ocean" (TTO), and of course, we went to NSF for support.
While the TTO program evolved from the GEOSECS experience, it had marked differences, driven both by PI desire for hands-on research and NSF desire for the accountability of individual components to peer review. It was smaller in space and time, the support from the Operations Group was cut in half, and a much more efficient set of observing protocols was adopted. The unseen hand of the scientific marketplace was at work, and our big program follow-on was now to be staffed by an ensemble cast. Within NSF the latent problem of whether this was chemistry (the technique) or physics (a major application) had to be dealt with, and an impasse occurred. Physical Oceanography program manager Curtis Collins at NSF was to rise to the challenge and ably represent the program.
The program was national, but as with GEOSECS, a very strong informal international flavor was simply assumed to exist. I recall driving to Lamont for one meeting with Canadian, German, Japanese, and English participants, which seemed quite normal.
The planning ran into two problems very quickly: facing up to the undiagnosed error in the GEOSECS CO2 results, now nine years old, could no longer be postponed. NSF, quite properly, would not let a new program go ahead without it. And the design of a cruise track that would attempt to cover a very large area of the North Atlantic in one snapshot, proved challenging. In the midst of this, Arnold Bainbridge, the talented, gracious hero of GEOSECS, suddenly died. He was only 48 years old. Years of stress and failure to take care of a chronic health problem had taken a dreadful toll. The shock was enormous.
The death of Arnold Bainbridge left a huge hole and much confusion. When his team went through his office, to put affairs in order and recover original files, they found a drawer full of carefully labeled tapes archiving all the programs that we were using. The problem was that all the labels simply read, "Test"! We were lost.
A meeting was held at Lamont to review the CO2 measurement and data recovery problem, and Bob Williams kindly loaned me a very large binder of FORTRAN printout, which probably contained the answer somewhere. I digested it on a plane flight to Seattle, and by the end of the trip, red eyed, I had found the few lines of code that seemed to count. Arnold had been creative with his chemistry coding and had not told any of us! Al Bradshaw and I painstakingly pulled things apart, and ran some tests (Bradshaw et al., 1981); yes, we could rewrite the equations, and yes, a coding error had occurred during the Atlantic to Pacific transition. We were learning hard lessons—that big programs can be vulnerable. But we could put the problem to rest and advise NSF that publication of the GEOSECS atlases, long stalled by this problem, could proceed. It fell to Taro Takahashi to compile the data (Takahashi et al., 1981), and the classic picture that resulted is shown in Figure 3.
A test cruise in 1980, and a wonderful year in 1981, saw a large-scale attack on the tracer chemistry of the North Atlantic Ocean. Some 250 stations were occupied (Figure 4), and no equipment was lost. Richard Gammon made the first, exciting measurements of the chlorofluorocarbon tracers. A marked freshening of the North Atlantic was found, which became part of the "Great Salinity Anomaly." The tracer signals showed beautifully the evolution of ocean water masses in the nine years since GEOSECS. Tritium-helium dating of water mass ventilation came of age, thanks to the superb efforts of Bill Jenkins. And chemical coherence within the CO2 system was attained, thanks in large part to the (on-shore) presence of Dave Keeling who provided a limited data set of unassailable integrity. The program provided a superb benchmark for carbon-cycle science.
In the fall of 1981 I took a two-year leave from Woods Hole to serve as program director for Marine Chemistry at NSF. Neil Andersen had been appointed to the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission in Paris, and I was his "rotator" replacement. Most of my colleagues were shocked at the move; I had a wonderful time—eventually, and thanks above all to my program colleague Rodger Baier. I learned from Rodger that NSF program managers were not dull; they could play the piano cross-handed while lying down and

What are some examples of imagery in "The Scarlet Ibis?
1 Answer | Add Yours
The first line of the story is a powerful image.
The author establishes the story's setting and mood with the first sentence, which uses figurative language.
Summer was dead, but autumn had not yet been born when the ibis came to the bleeding tree.
Summer and autumn are personified in order to both tell us the season and the mood of the story. The use of summer this way foreshadows death in the story.
Another interesting image in the story is that of the "bleeding tree." Trees bleed when they have been cut somewhere, almost like people do. The use of blood as an image, even from a tree, continues to develop a mood that is somber and foreboding.
The reader can be pretty sure that this story is going to involve death, loss, and sadness. The mood is well-established, and the use of death metaphors in the beginning foreshadows death in the story.

Last fall, at a reading for Manifesta: Young Women, Feminism, and the Future, a 50-ish audience member questioned the thirtysomething authors' ever-so-casual usage of the word "ladies." To this woman (who turned out to be tireless second-wave activist Laura X, creator of the Women's History Research Center), the blithe use of "ladies" ran counter to everything she and her generation of feminists had fought for—and against.
But to the authors, Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards, and their peers, the lady words can spill forth with ironic glee.
I'm not sure exactly when or how it happened, but at some point in my childhood I began to think I was a white guy trapped in the body of a black girl. And not just any white guy, either—a guitar player in a heavy-metal band.
gina gold is a writer and filmmaker who spent five years in San Francisco's sex industry, starting out as a phone sex operator, then becoming an exotic dancer at the Lusty Lady, the Market Street Cinema, and the Mitchell Brothers' O'Farrell Theater. Her first film, Do You Want Me to Stay?, grew out of an autobiographical one-woman show that she wrote, directed, and performed at the Luna Sea theater last spring. She is currently working on The Island of Misfit Toys, a memoir.
ah, movie magic. hollywood always manages to make difficult situations turn out well after two hours—and nowhere is this more apparent than with cinematic treatments of unplanned pregnancy.
Unexpected conceptions occur onscreen with surprising frequency, but filmmakers routinely play it safe, avoiding substantial discussions of a pregnancy's pros and cons. They keep abortion out of plots and even out of dialogue, ensuring that movies end with a heartwarming birth. Female characters rarely feel any ambivalence about carrying unplanned pregnancies to term—and why should they, when life always works out so perfectly? An unhappy and unwilling dad-to-be will convert to a pro-baby stance in time for a happily-ever-after ending. If mom isn't too crazy about dad and would prefer to parent by herself, she'll soon find that single motherhood is a cinch. Although childrearing seems expensive in the real world, money isn't much of an obstacle for film parents (and made even less of one by the fact that most movies feature middle-class women with plenty of resources).
Imagine the jolt to my feminist sensibilities when I arrived, ready to serve, at the local Taste of the County dinner event and was presented with a plastic apron that had housewife emblazoned under my name. Shame heaped upon humiliation when I noticed—slack-jawed—that a potted plant, needle and thread, and recipe box (!) illustrated the damnable word. I, if the truth had been sought, have no visible gardening skills, find no personal satisfaction at the sewing machine, and sprint from any connection to the culinary arts.
So there we were, ten hooting and hollering women clutching stacks of dollar bills. Well, nine hollerers (you didn't think I'd call my friends "hooters," did you?) and one thoughtful, if drunk, young lady. We were at my bachelorette party, and one of the revelers was suffering from a crisis of conscience. "What are your career aspirations?" she asked our friendly tattooed, hardbodied, and completely clean-shaven stripper. "What do you really want to do?" He ignored her question and stuck his g-string-clad package closer to her face.
I didn't start out in the world a hard-ass, I swear. I was the nice girl, Little Mary Sunshine—turning the other cheek and searching for the good in all people. But you know what finally pushed me over the edge? I'll sum it up for you in one word: breasts. More specifically, my‑breasts. I am a woman with large breasts—an intelligent woman, horror of horrors. (I mean, brains and‑breasts?
My arm fell asleep, I got so engrossed. This issue of Harper's Bazaar is about as big as a bible—and just as full of prophecy.
I fall in love with the models, their blackened eyes and plaster pigment, all pinched and compressed into vinyl and leather, looking hot hot hot and totally unfazed. They are the visions of me that I will never see.
Irony of the month: While the Editor's Letter says, "Shut up and eat," and bemoans the fact that women are always "self-surveilling" their caloric intake, the mag gives information about: "Aromatrim" products (you smell them and they make you eat less); a new diet pill; "liposhaving" (you can guess what that is).
but to other perceptive and right-on readers who are as upset as we are about the changes. And guess what?
The editors are defensive as hell.

I live on S W Todd Ave PSL. I have gone to his store for many, many, years got cheese steak whole 1/2 cheese steak and a hoagie, with 3 large fries came to 29 and change. It was the most disappointing sandwich ever.I gave my steak to my husband to put on his sandwich all we saw when we opened the roll was a lot of bread and meat was so scarce. Did not know that I ordered a diet cheese steak I enjoyed my peanut butter and jelly better than my husband enjoyed his/my steak. don't think will return to Jon Smith's again he needs to put some meat on the sandwich not air. Sorry Jon but I tell it the way it is.

As promised, I'm back with my first review for Project Natural Glow!
First up, Mountain Ocean Skin Trip Coconut Lotion!
Let's take a look at the ingredients list, shall we?
Skin Deep doesn't list this product exactly, but most of Mountain Ocean's products score very low. Instead, let's look at each ingredient individually:
- Purified Water-If this one poses a health hazard, we're all in trouble!
- Coconut Oil, Aloe Juice, Hybrid Safflower Oil, and Sorbitol – all low hazard
- Stearic Acid – low to moderate hazard
- Behentrimonium Methosulfate is just a surfactant, so it keeps the oils and water from separating. Low hazard.
- Cetearyl Alcohol is basically an emulsifier for coconut oil. Low hazard.
- Emulsifying Wax– low hazard
- Dimethicone – low to moderate hazard
- Phenoxyethanol is a preservative. Moderate hazard.
- Linoleamidopropyl PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate is an antistatic agent. Low hazard.
- Dicetyldimonium Chloride is another emulsifier and surfactant. Low hazard.
- Lanolin Alcohol – low to moderate hazard
- Benzethonium Chloride is a preservative and antimicrobial. Moderate hazard.
- Fragrance – HIGH hazard
All in all, Mountain Ocean Skin Trip looks pretty good from a health and safety standpoint!
The lotion is a lot more runny than what I'm used to. When I think of super-moisturizing lotions, I tend to think of something more thick and creamy. But, the fact that this one is thinner actually works for it. It soaks in much more quickly, so my hands aren't as sticky.
I like the coconut smell of the lotion. It makes me feel so tropical, which will be nice in the cold Wisconsin winter! However, it does have an underlying smell that I'm not as big a fan of. The best word I can think of to describe it is… rubbery?
Since I've started using this lotion on Wednesday, my hands have felt extra-smooth and haven't been chapped at all. And most importantly, my skin hasn't broken out, turned red, or gotten itchy from it.
Product 1 of Project Natural Glow, then, is a success!
I give Mountain Ocean Skin Trip Coconut Lotion an A-, just because of the rubbery smell. I love everything else about it!
Do you have any natural beauty products you love?

Best of Nicolás Maduro
Cuban President Raul Castro and Venezuelan Nicolas Maduro speak with... News PhotoCelebration,Cuba,Government,Horizontal,Nicolás Maduro,Politics,Raul Castro,Santiago de Cuba,Talking,VenezuelaPhotographer AFPCollection: AFP 2013 AFPCuban President Raul Castro (R) and Venezuelan Nicolas Maduro (C) speak with Santa Lucia President Kenny Anthony (L) on July 26, 2013 during celebrations of the 60th Anniversary of Moncada barrack attack in Santiago de Cuba. Cuba on Friday launched 60th anniversary celebrations of ex-leader Fidel Castro's Moncada Barracks assault -- widely seen as the start to the country's communist revolution. The events, led by current President Raul Castro, kicked off in the courtyard of the former Moncada Garrison, where in 1953, a young Fidel Castro and more than 100 rebels attempted to overthrow the dictator Fulgencio Batista. The bid was unsuccessful, but Castro eventually toppled Batista in 1959, launching the Americas' only communist regime, which he ruled for five decades before stepping aside for health reasons in favour of his brother.

Irrigation System reviews in Bow
Paid $39 for comprehensive sprinkler tuneup and adjustment. Came out, gave me an estimate of over $2,000...asked me to sign on his small smartphone. When I later pulled up the estimate on my PC, and read that they charged $900 to change three sprinkler heads. A friend just had theirs replaced for $80. I cancelled the order. When I asked about the $39 I paid for the tuneup and adjustment, I was told that was "between me and Angie's list". So basically, I believe they charge way more than they should, and the $39 "Deal" is a scam. This is the first time I have been scammed on Angie's list.
it took a lot of digging. He was not only efficient but good-natured. He accomodated my dogs by assuring the gate was closed at all times so there were no escapes. He even set the timing and rates on the controller and gave me instructions on the best method of watering in our drought. I have used him previously and will use him again. Pricing was very reasonable.
It went well. They showed up on time, and got right to work. They evaluated current sprinkler heads and looked for leaks. Let us know that some of the heads were worn (and not working properly) and timer so that it runs on the proper day -- apparently this is very important in
He is going to give us an estimate on work that needs to be done to make our system better.
I would definitely consider him for future work.
I give him an A+++++++++++++++++++++ and recommend him highly.
If you want shoddy work and a lot of hassle to fix issues, hire people ever again and neither should you waste your time."
They came out, and about 3 minutes later, they left. Luckily we have not found any burst pipes. I was not really confident in their work, compared to other people I have used in the past. Others would spend time to make sure all pipes were blown out. I felt confident in the other service providers just not this one."
Ed arrived promptly at agreed appointment time. Discussed issues with me. He patiently analyzed the output of each sprinkler, replaced faulty sprinkler heads and made adjustments as needed. Excellent work. Very professional. Definitely won't hesitate to call Ed with any future sprinkler issues.

Our web design process
As well as a top quality front-end design, we believe that websites should back up their appearance with effective development. In any case, a website that looks desirable becomes ineffective if the correct features are non-existent, so it is crucial that all the features of the website work correctly. Our overall goal is to design a website that will help your business grow rather than one that looks nice but has no real substance.
It's all in the detail
In order for us to design the best possible website we make sure we understand every necessary detail about your company. We sit down and talk through every last detail of your website, including the features so you are never surprised by anything we come up with. Our initial consultation will hopefully provide us with all the information we require, but if it does not, we are not afraid to ask until we have everything.
Who are you Targeting?
Every business has a target market, and who your target is will play a big role in how your website takes shape. If you are targeting a younger market, there is no point in our company designing something old-fashioned and boring as it simply will not appeal. At our initial meeting, we make sure we firmly establish the target market, and this way we can successfully reflect this in our design.
You are in Control
Many of our competitors forget that they are working for a client. This leads to them developing features and coming up with designs that they like. At DNKN Studio, we make sure you are in control because we want you to have a website that you are proud to show to your colleagues and friends. With this in mind, we are here to offer our professional opinion, but we will never take over unless this is what you require.
DNKN Studio Previous Work
Plenty of our competition boasts about their success, but offers little or nothing to back it up. At DNKN Studio, we back all of our talk up with a very professional web design portfolio. Here, we show all our designs (the ones which we can) to allow you to see what we can actually do when given the opportunity.
Remember, we build our websites from the very first stage. This allows you to have complete control over every feature of the website. Every client has a different taste, so any company that offers a product for a low price is probably just rehashing another development.

ty segall - Would You Be My Love
**A highlight of Ty's 'Twins' LP for Drag City, paired with new and exclusive song 'For Those Who Weep'** " 'Would You Be My Love' is the second single from Ty's titanic third album of 2012, 'Twins'. It's a candy-coated 'American Bandstand' type moment that is sure to guarantee lots of twisting. The song never quits, bouncing along at a medium high degree of tempo that is only enhanced by revolving at 45rpm. Note the depths of longing, loneliness and melancholy underneath the gleaming waves of the song, for these represent the other 'twin' alluded to in the title of 'Twins': For every thrusting rocker out for a good time, there's a retiring romantic, wanting you to know that he's afraid of disappearing from the face of the Earth, and both of them sharing space inside the same skull. The flipside of the record, 'For Those Who Weep', is a non-album moment dressing an old familiar scrap of melody in a messianic tunic, as Ty recalls being compelled from beyond himself to participate in the spirit-world of music, uniting the people together. Low-fi production crunch gives the waltzing acoustic guitars a sweet Stonesy edge, freeing this simple song to sing intimately yet anthemically inside our collective head."

Photog fragged by fair-use-f***ing footprint artist…
When Seattle-based photographer Mike Hipple took this stock picture, at left, of a 1979-vintage, public-arts-financed, sidewalk piece called "Dance Steps on Broadway" by artist Jack Mackie, he had no idea that he had just stepped in the worst s—-t the sidewalk can dish up.
Because Mackie is suing Hipple to the tune of $60,000 for copyright infringement.
Now, we all know the economy sucks. And I usually reserve my outrage for predatory corporate entities bent on the economic pillaging of the individual content producer.
But now, things are apparently so bad, that it's content-producer eating content-producer…a veritable Lord of the Flies scenario for image-makers.
In the words of the ill-fated Simi Valley motorist Rodney King, "can we all just get along?"
Apparently not.
Hipple's stock agency, upon receiving notice from the "artist" and his legal team, took the picture down from their site. But that wasn't good enough. Mackie, who had wisely registered his piece, is now seeking punitive damages to the tune of the aforementioned $60 grand.
For more information on how this case is playing out, and how you can help (this affects each and every one of us who shoots travel pictures in public places), hit the jump.
New Hope: In Character—Reception Timelapse
The reception for New Hope: In Character was Friday night at the New Hope Arts Center and we had a large and very responsive crowd.
Besides the local luminaries, many of whom were on the wall AND in the crowd, several old photographer friends showed up, including the Geographic's Mike Yamashita, NY Daily News sports shooting ace Linda Cataffo (we started at The Dispatch together, but the years have been far kinder to her!) and The Record's Peter Monsees (we've known each other since grammar school), The Intelligencer's Rich Kennedy, and freelancers Jerry Millevoi, and Arun Paul.
Here's a web gallery of the show. The prints, some as large as 30×40, were made by Aspen Creek Photo. This is the consumer lab division of West Coast Imaging. We had to keep the costs down on this job and WCI's excellent custom B&W printing was not in the budget. But Rich Seiling and the Aspen Creek crew did magnificent work on the consumer prints that just looked great.
I'd love to take credit for the good looking files those prints were made from, but it was the Nik Silver FX Pro plug in that made those flawless B&W conversions so easy, even I could do it!
The prints were mounted by another crackerjack outfit, Philadelphia Photographics. Jack and his crew turned the job around quickly and perfectly….and they even delivered!
I can't guarantee it would be the same for you, but photographing friends and neighbors was one of the most rewarding projects of my career…and one huge benefit was that all I had to do was walk two blocks to work—no metal detectors, no baggage handlers, and no crowded overheads! It's the lowest carbon footprint travel photography I've ever done…..
If the NRA taught travel photography….
….they couldn't do any better than Geographic shooters, and all around wags, Cary Wolinsky and Bob Caputo did in this short piece. Talk about being shot out of a cannon (that's cannon with two "n's"), they launched their new blog, Pix Boom Bah, with this wacky video.
The site looks like a place where humor and high production values will help teach basic photography concepts, served up by these two veteran Geographic shooters (and fledgling standup comedians!). Finally, photography has its own mini Monty Python troupe!
Nevada's Wisdom, Where's Jim, Stephen's High Jinx, Joe's Swami….
Some of my friends and colleagues have been sharing some great information lately.
Nevada Weir, adventure travel photographer extraordinaire, shares a great post: The 10 things she wished she knew before becoming a professional travel photographer and the 10 things she's glad she knew. Take number three in the "glad she knew" category:
I knew that I had some great traits for a traveler: I can handle alcohol; I can sleep anywhere; I have an "iron stomach"; I have a bad sense of smell; and I remain very calm in times of stress or uncertainty. All very useful for the solo traveler.
Funnily enough, I have all those same traits (especially the alcohol-holding abilities) EXCEPT that I do go to pieces in times of stress and uncertainty….but I'm working on it, sometimes even without the alcohol part!
To find out where Jim Richardson has been parking his fedora,why Stephen Alvarez craves getting high above all things, and why Joe McNally won't confess to a swami, hit the jump. Continue reading
Samples with the new AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR
Nikon announced several new lenses today, one of which I got to play with a while ago.
Of course, I knew that an announcement was forthcoming, I just didn't know when (because like the husband, the photographer is always the last to know).
In fact, If I hadn't gotten a nasty email from a Czech photographer this morning who absolutely hated one of the pictures used in the official Nikon web announcement (namely, mine!), I would have never known the lens was launched.
Ah yes, there's nothing quite like getting a new orifice torn while you're enjoying your morning java to really jump start your day!
Unlike my critic, however, I was blessed with the opportunity to play with a prototype of the 28-300mm for a couple of days out in San Francisco last February.
I have to say that this lens, along with the venerable 18-200mm Nikkor, has completely turned my head around when it comes to the viability of a variable aperture uni-zoom as a professional tool. This one, in particular, blew my mind and spun my head around 360 degrees…(think Linda Blair in The Exorcist!). I couldn't find a downside to it.
It's sharp end to end, not too big or heavy, and ergonomically pleasing to use. It features a zoom lock, which is important because, while it's not overly large for what it is, it's a substantial piece of glass, and I highly recommend keeping the zoom lock on while you're walking around. You can read about the specs here and also see the full-sized samples here .
You know I'm not too technical (they had to loan me an FX camera, a D700, to shoot with) but I can tell you that this is an awesome piece of glass. You literally could shoot a whole job with this baby with no compromise that I could discern (although I'm sure someone in, um, the Czech Republic might be able to!)
The VR works well and makes up for the F/5.6 at the long end (although, as a regular user of the 70-300mm VR on my D90, this is no surprise, or hardship, for me). If I were an FX travel shooter, this lens would be in my bag (paired, most likely, with the 16-35mm f/4 VR).
Man, that would be a combination (throw in the 24mm f/1.4 and the new 85mm f/1.4 for available light and bokeh issues, and you're in FX travel-shooting heaven, my friends! Four lenses that can do it all). But if you could only carry one lens for your FX explorations, this would be it, no doubt.
Here's another frame of a very cool performance artist called Chi Energy, whom I bumped into while shooting the Chinese New Year parade in San Francisco:
Hit the jump for more of Chi and San Francisco with the new lens… Continue reading

4.1 Intellectual Property Basics - Transcripts
Greg Lambrecht: That is an extremely important and challenging consideration. Access used to be hard to look at that and you'd go to the library and you'd flip through card decks and now it's all online and you can do it in 30 seconds. Europe and US and Germany and everywhere else. You really need to restrain yourself until after you have developed the initial concepts so even beyond I do not look at them even after I've sculpted a needs statement. I don't look at IP because it will make you think "oh, it's already been done," which is the one statement you don't want to hear in a brainstorming session. I always have a red light or a buzzer when someone says "that's been done already," I shut them up. Because maybe it wasn't done exactly the same way…IP squashes innovation at the core when the need is confronted with bright people trying to solve a problem. However, immediately after you have identified your top concepts, it's extremely important to look at the intellectual property. As a very good friend of mine said, "You need to have a lot of water buffalo to get across the river." Your favorite solutions will get wiped out by intellectual property, that's why you need to have more than one and move on.

Since its completion in 1987, the Jacksonville Landing has remained pivotal in the revitalization of this bustling city's core. More than 300 events are held at this shopping and dining complex throughout the year, perhaps none as popular as the Friday Farmers Market, held every Friday from 10:00am to 2:00pm.
Opened since 2010, this buzzing marketplace serves as the center of the city's local food sourcing. A huge hit with patrons, the Friday Farmers Market averages more than 40 vendors per week, showcasing a variety of produce, artisan crafts, baked goods, and more. Rain or shine, hundreds of visitors make their way to The Landing each week to check out the vast offerings, ranging from pottery and plants to jewelry and heirlooms.
Whether you're looking for that special item or just wasting away the day, visitors will find plenty to see and do while exploring The Landing's vast offerings. Looking for fresh bread, barbecue ribs, or fresh granola? You'll find all that and more while meandering these quarters, so be sure to come with an open mind and an eager appetite.
From week to week, vendors and shoppers gather weekly to sift through the fresh and specially made goods. Check out the full selection in the Market area on the first floor of The Jacksonville Landing. Afterward, when you're ready to call it a day, this year-round complex provides plenty to see and do, including weekly entertainment, holiday celebrations, and live music.

The Bitwig Studio DAW transforms Linux computers into music workstations
Bitwig Studio is the first complete music workstation offered as a commercial product for Linux. Now, Linux finally offers music production software that has, up to now, only been available on other platforms.
The Berlin-based startup Bitwig [1] announced plans for a new major league digital audio workstation for Linux about two years ago. About a year ago, a beta version of Bitwig Studio for Linux came out for testing, and in March 2014, the company finally released a complete version (Figure 1), having completely eliminated the bugs from the beta.
Besides the freely licensed Ardour and its smaller "siblings," such as Qtractor and MusE, musicians also have access to commercial and proprietary music production suites on Linux. Most are geared to the needs of electronic music producers. Renoise and Tracktion are built natively for Linux, whereas Reaper is a Windows program optimized for operation with Wine.
None of the top names in music production software – Steinberg Cubase, Magix Samplitude, Avid's Pro Tools, or Ableton Live – run on Linux. Time and again, musicians have said they would love to use Linux, if they only had access to a digital audio workstation like the suites they are accustomed to working with in Windows or Mac OS. Now they do.
Bitwig Studio presents a perfectly designed, professionally built, complete software suite for musicians. The program provides options that are new on Linux, especially for composition and live performances. Additionally, Bitwig offers a high degree of flexibility that other commercial programs can rarely live up to.
The manufacturer supplies the program as a 64-bit DEB package [2], making it easy to install on any Debian derivative. Bitwig expressly states "Ubuntu 12.04 or later" as a system requirement, but people have already reported successful installations on Debian, Arch Linux, Fedora, and other distributions. The prerequisite is a 64-bit system; Bitwig Studio does not run on a 32-bit kernel.
In our lab, the suite installed smoothly on Kubuntu 13.04; on startup, it prompted me for a username and password, which you need to create when you register on Bitwig.com. The registered account is also used to manage licenses – Bitwig fortunately does not bother its users with USB dongles and the like.
For use without an Internet connection, a key file can be downloaded from the user section of the website. With a standard license, you can use Bitwig Studio on up to three computers at the same time, and you can download packages for all supported operating systems from the user section. For your first tests, you can also retrieve a free demo package [2]; however, you cannot save your work in it.
After completing the registration ceremony, you need to confirm a EULA, and then things get interesting: Bitwig offers downloads of several collections of samples and MIDI templates, which you can use as the basis for your projects and to explore the program's capabilities. Most of them come from Bitwig itself, with others from third parties. The latter are, however, usually only reduced versions of larger packages that you can purchase elsewhere.
The downloads are stored in
~/.BitwigStudio. Additionally, Bitwig sets up a
~/Bitwig Studio directory, where it saves your settings and projects.
Made for Linux
After the relatively long startup process, Bitwig feels like a native Linux program. Unlike some other cross-platform programs, I had no problems with window management, virtual desktops, or other Linux-specific functions. That may well be because Bitwig has its own Java runtime onboard, which provides the suite's Java interface.
All interface elements respond without delay. The actual signal processing – you can easily see that it has been carefully optimized for Linux – does not run as Java bytecode, but as a classic binary.
For audio interfaces, you can choose from Alsa, Jack, and the anachronistic OSS. For all the tests in this article, I used Jack, which has established itself as a standard for audio on Linux (also see the "Jack in the Box" boxout at the end of this article). After changing to the interface of your choice, you can immediately choose the ports offered by the selected interfaces as inputs/outputs. However, the changed settings only take effect after restarting Bitwig.
Very shortly after the release of version 1.0, the selection of audio interface did not work correctly: As in the beta, PortAudio threw an ugly error message. Just two days later, the problem disappeared, without any trace of a Bitwig upgrade. Bitwig shows available updates at the start; the download can be started automatically, then you install the appropriate package with dpkg or a tool like GDebi. After installation, you then need to click your way through the well-known first-launch wizard, which worked fine for all seven updates presented during the trial period.
Version 1.0.7, which ran for most of the test, exhibited virtually no problems with the existing functions. Every module and every feature I tried worked with constructive results. At second glance, however, a few shortcomings were identified: For example, the sound file preview in the browser did not always work; Bitwig only listed VST modules in the file area of the browser, but not in the intended device list. Some problems in detecting MIDI devices connected via USB were the only problems that really restricted functionality.
Attempts to force Bitwig to output noise, or even crash, through adventurous experiments with complex, demanding actions, were fended off perfectly (Figure 2). With 28 audio channels plus 10 MIDI tracks – each with its own sound generator – a couple of Xruns (buffer under- or overruns) occurred on the Alsa back end. However, they had no audible effect, and they only appeared when all channels needed to output a signal at the same time. Jack was adjusted to keep maximum latency to below 8 milliseconds, which is quite an ambitious value for a commercial laptop.
Compact Versatility
Bitwig Studio is a complex program with many features, which inevitably leads to a complex interface, but one that can remain comprehensible with some careful planning. The concept that Bitwig designers adhere to relies on a combination of relatively simple menus without submenus, plus the interface responses to user commands that automatically reconfigure the program window.
Bitwig thus mutates into a "new" program, depending on the function invoked by the user, that in itself is as clear-cut as possible. With the exception of a few configuration modules, all this happens in the four sections of the main window; only standalone plugin interfaces are allowed to open their own windows (see the "Hidden Tricks" box).
The toggles for the main modes – Arrange, Mix, and Edit – are at the bottom left. These modes consist of combinations of panels. To the right, you can select individual panels for the main toolbox (bottom center). The vertical box on the left displays information and tools for both work areas in the center and automatically follows the currently enabled program elements, such as tracks in the Arranger or sound clips in the Editor box.
This concept turns out to be quite clever: Almost all the compilations tried in our lab appeared understandable and were easily controllable. However, as with all automatic functions, I was sometimes left wishing I could do some things manually.
The View menu, top center, provides some simple switches for this purpose that let you display or hide panel boxes as required. In this menu, you can also select panels that do not appear in the automatic compilations. If you use more than one display, you will also find switches that enable optimized Bitwig setups for multimonitor mode.
The tracks in the Arranger can only be set to "small" or "very small." For precise editing, therefore, it makes sense to switch to Clip Editing mode. When you double-click the box-like icon at the bottom, it transfers a clip to the Arranger and automatically adjusts to its format: MIDI clips open in a piano roll editor and sounds in a wave editor.
Top left in these tools are some small switches that let you enhance the simple standard editors. For example, you can edit material in a Layer view that displays all the tracks in a stack, as in the Arranger, or directly superimposed. In the classic Track mode, you can enlarge tracks as needed, so that you can inspect and edit notes and sound graphs in detail.
The foil-like Layer view lets you stretch or compress audio material to match quantized MIDI notes precisely in another track (Figure 3). The quality of Bitwig's tools for stretching and compressing audio material proves to be excellent. Everything works in real time and instantly appears in the graph, and you will not notice a change in the sound except with extreme settings.
Closely connected with the Arranger and Editor are various automation functions. A comprehensive presentation of all the possibilities is well beyond the scope of this article; however, all the parameters of the controllers and plugins associated with a track can be controlled remotely with lines that you draw by hand or by moving the sliders. You can apply curve features to the lines, if needed; automation can be bound both to the timeline in the project as well as to a clip. (See also the "Macros" box at the end of the article.)
Bitwig Studio internally uses a proprietory data format for notes and control commands, which it sends to sound generators and effects. In contrast to traditional MIDI, this format supports precise settings and the transmission of control signals to individual notes in a clip. For example, you can use a line within a chord to manipulate a single tone and change its pitch.

Music group endowment
Staff reports : January 4, 2013 : Updated: January 4, 2013 2:10am
The Chamber Orchestra of San Antonio has created a $100,000 endowment fund after raising $57,000 during a seven-week period ending Dec. 31 to match a challenge grant of $50,000 from the Tobin Endowment, the nonprofit orchestra announced Thursday.
"Starting its inaugural season with a $100,000 endowment will enable COSA to build on this gift to assure long-term sustainability. The inaugural concert was fully funded, and over 75 percent of this season's budget has already been raised," said Lori Skinner, COSA executive director, in a prepared statement.
The orchestra staged a concert in October. Details for a spring concert have not been announced yet.

Cabbies help human trafficking move
Posted: September 04, 2014|
A CAMPAIGN to stop sexual exploitation and forced labour of innocent people in Uttoxeter is being introduced to taxi drivers in the town in their role as 'eyes and ears' of the community.
East Staffordshire Borough Council's full licensing committee is set to approve plans to support the Stop the Traffik campaign, which aims to address issues of human trafficking at a local level.
Stop the Traffik has identified taxi drivers as one of the few groups of people that come into contact with victims of trafficking.
It is therefore thought appropriate that the committee considers the approval of the campaign being introduced to those licensed by the council.
It is proposed, at the next Hackney Carriage and Private Hire trade forum, to introduce the Stop the Traffik campaign to licensees, with Sergeant Bob Champeau of Staffordshire Police explaining how cabbies can assist.
A report to the licensing committee by Philip Somerfield, the council's head of regulatory services, said: "Those licensed within the Hackney Carriage and Private Hire trade within East Staffordshire should know what human trafficking is, what the signs are and who to report it to."

PADUCAH, Ky. — A funding source and start date for the cleanup of the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant is uncertain as officials try to grapple with budget issues and when the facility will cease operations.
Portsmouth-Paducah Project Office Manager Bill Murphie told The Paducah Sun that funds designated for decontamination and decommission of plants in Paducah, Portsmouth, Ohio and Oak Ridge, Tenn., are inadequate.
The U.S. Department of Energy will assume responsibility for the plant when it stops re-enrichment operations May 31, unless a contract extension is worked out. The current schedule for decontamination and decommissioning sets the work being finished by 2019.
Portsmouth Paducah Project Office spokesman Tim Echelard said the Energy Department will look into other sources, such as the Defense Environmental Cleanup appropriations for funds.

I was in NYC last week for my television appearance on NBC at Rockefeller Center and several events celebrating my newest book Ani's Raw Food Essentials. I love how easy it is to get around NYC without a car by walking, taking a train, bus, or subway. I miss great public transportation when living in LA. It's also surprisingly easy to be healthy and to enjoy raw foods in NYC. I felt super lucky to be invited by the lovely Mia Andres from Organic Avenue and raw model Anthony Andersen for dinner at Pure Food and Wine.
This was my first visit to NYC in 6 years, and my first visit to Pure. I was blown away by the food! It was super fresh, beautifully plated, and really delicious. We enjoyed the S+M salad, appetizers, ravioli, lasagna, but my favorite thing ever was the Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sundae! I finally got to meet the heart of Pure Food and Wine, Sarma Melngailis, who's even more beautiful in person.
I had been to Quintessence my last visit to NYC 6 years ago. It was good then, and was really good this time around again. We enjoyed tacos, burgers, sundaes, but my favorite was the bagels and cream cheese! Wish I had been there on a weekend to enjoy their raw vegan brunch menu.
I was craving Pure's Mint Chocolate Sundae, so had to make it back for one more dinner before heading back to Los Angeles. My friend Moby, a long time vegan, and my favorite electronic musician, met me in the garden for dinner along with a few friends and my cousin, Minnie Roh. We enjoyed pizza, ceviche, tamales, smoothies, drinks, lasagna, appetizers, chips and guacamole, but most importantly…a Mint Chocolate Sundae! Everyone was hooked.
To boost this blissful experience even further, Shania Twain, a friend of Moby's, and Canada's most popular musician, stopped by our table to catch up with Moby. What a way to finish up my NYC visit!
Kate Magic was visiting from the UK last fall. In this video, you can watch our visit to Erewhon Natural Foods in the heart of Los Angeles, CA. I believe Erewhon was SoCal's first natural food market and co-op. It's full of the healthiest foods, cookbooks, natural eco green cleaning products, and lots more. Rooted in macrobiotics, they have a great book selection too.
Erewhon offers a huge array of raw food products in their store, it's probably the largest raw selection in the world. The raw food goodies take up 2 full isles, end caps, plus a refrigerated section. It's always a treat to peruse the isles to see what new raw food products have hit the marketplace.
Kate and I enjoyed a lovely day playing around West Hollywood. We started out at lunch eating delicious collard roll wraps, then stopped into Trashy Lingerie next door. Since raw foods keep me at my ideal weight, makes my skin smooth and clear, and helps me build a lean, strong body, it makes shopping for and wearing lingerie easier.
Next, we visited a thrift store, which is my favorite way to shop. It's recycled fashion, eco, green, good for our environment, and it's true that one person's trash can be another person's treasure. Finally, we then made it over to Erewhon.
Kate will be back in LA in August this year. I look forward to continuing our SoCal adventures together!

New Building Dedication, Open House Celebrate Opening
Start Date
Chelsea Community Hospital celebrated the completion of its new facility with two landmark events during the first week of December.
A Blessing and Dedication Ceremony took place on December 4, which included members of CCH, Saint Joseph Mercy Health System (SJMHS), and Trinity Health administration, donors, community leaders, and past and present CCH Trustees. Dr. Bruce Stubbs, one of the original founders of the Hospital, was also in attendance at this event.
The ceremony featured speeches from Nancy Graebner, President and CEO of CCH, Garry Faja, President and CEO of Saint Joseph Mercy Health System, Brad Wylie, Chief of Staff at CCH, and Dave Killips, Chair of the Board of Trustees at CCH. The Blessing was presented by Sister Yvonne Gellise, RSM, Senior Advisor for Governance, SJMHS. The dedication was presented by Rev. Kathy Schell, Director of Mission Services for CCH.
After the dedication, several individuals participated in a ribbon cutting in the lobby of the new building while guests enjoyed refreshments and self-guided tours.
"This was a monumental day for Chelsea Community Hospital, as we celebrated the completion of our new facility," said Graebner. "We were honored to have so many special guests from both our past and our present to share this special blessing and dedication. It was truly an unforgettable experience."
On Sunday, December 9, CCH welcomed over 1,500 community members through its doors for its community open house.
Visitors commented on the artwork adorning the walls and patient rooms, which includes pieces specially selected by an arts committee, in partnership with the Chelsea Center for the Arts. Many also commented on the comfortable furniture for visitors and guests, as well as the breathtaking glass and art in the Kathleen S. Griffiths Lobby, named after the Hospital's former President and CEO.
The new facility includes a 54-bed addition of private patient rooms, allowing most of the existing patient rooms to become private as well. The new building also includes an expanded emergency department, diagnostic imaging areas, outpatient rehabilitation/therapy, and new Main Entrance, including a café, gift shop, and meeting rooms.
"Seeing all these people come through our doors today reminds me that this is truly the community's Hospital," Graebner said. "The members of our communities feel a sense of ownership with our Hospital, and they feel a sense of pride. I had the privilege of meeting many people today who told me how much this Hospital means to them. It reaffirmed for me the reason why we are here – to provide an exceptional health care experience to the communities we serve."

If you have been reading this blog consistently then you know that tempeh is one of my favorite ingredients to cook. I did not always have a favorable relationship with tempeh because the first time I looked at it I thought to myself 'what am I to do with that?' Remember that I had just switched from grilling turkey, chicken, sausage and beef to a vegetarian diet and could not fathom what to do with this STUFF!
I did what anybody else would do and I went to the internet and did a search on tempeh recipes. There were tons of them to choose from and my eyes got as big as saucers. From that first search to today I have made tempeh bacon, buffalo tempeh, tempeh tacos, tempeh meat(less) balls and as the video at the end of this post will show you I also made tempeh bolognese.
As a responsible blogger I cannot just tell you how great tempeh is because we all know there is more than likely another thought process out there that says fermented soy isn't good for you. With that in mind I wanted to bring both arguments to you and let you decide what you put into your body and not just take my word for it.
I did some research on the benefits of tempeh and found a site titled Tempeh.Info. On the first page of the site it goes into the health effects of tempeh. I copied the following paragraph from the site, but you can also go[HERE] to get more information.
Tempeh is very nutritive and contains many health promoting phytochemicals such as isoflavones andsoy saponins. Tempeh fermentation produces natural antibiotic agents but leaves the desirable soy isoflavones and most of the saponins intact. Tempeh is a complete protein food that contains all the essential amino acids. The soy protein and isoflavones have many health benefits. Isoflavones strengthen bones, help to ease menopause symptoms, reduce risk of coronary hearth disease and some cancers. Tempeh maintains all the fiber of the beans and gains some digestive benefits from the enzymes created during the fermentation process.
Here is the nutritional information for one cup of tempeh (~8oz but I usually serve myself only 4 oz)
My research for the negative effects of tempeh provided very little but it did turn up this point from VegetarianOrganicLife.com:
Despite the promise of soy foods, it's important to not assume that all of them are healthful. Some are highly processed, made from genetically modified soybeans or contain substances in soy that have been isolated and added to foods and powders in too great a concentration, such as soy isolates in supplement form.
For optimum health and to maximize nutrient intake, it's best to stay away from highly processed soy foods such as textured vegetable protein (TVP) andprocessed soy (imitation) meats (soy deli meats, soy sausages, tofu dogs, etc.) as well as soy products that have been made with conventionally grown soybeans. Most non-organic soy products available in the U.S., including soybean oil, have been made from soybeans with genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
You can also feel free to visit the site Weston A Price Foundation and read an article by Susan Fallon and Mary Enig PhD about the detriments of soy by clicking [HERE]
Consider yourself armed to make an education decision on your own. You know where I stand and so with that I will leave you with this video on how I made tempeh bolognese.

We love puppies. And kittens. And micro-pigs. After all, it's a universal rule that the baby version of any adorable adult is always cuter – or is it?
In a photo taken at Prague's Zoo Praha, bird curator Antonin Vaidl gingerly feeds a 3-day-old Edward's Fig parrot with a spoon.
While we admit it's pretty precious to see the bird peck ever so slightly at the tip of the spoon, its feather-less appearance is ruffling our own feathers, especially considering what the species looks like as an adult. Parrot babies are rarely seen, says zoo representative Michal Stastny, but we have to ask: Is that a good thing?
Tell us: Did you squee or squirm when you saw this photo?

incredible work for saxophone.
Composer James Matheson describes this light, hot, and virtuosic work as a brief but intense struggle between two groups of musical material, tugging at each other and vying for dominance as a push and pull of contrary yet complimentary forces. Pull was composed for saxophonist Samuel Lorber and features a solo part that soars and glitters.

"The breezes taste
Of apple peel.
The air is full
Of smells to feel-
Ripe fruit, old footballs,
Burning brush,
New books, erasers,
Chalk, and such.
The bee, his hive,
Well-honeyed hum,
And Mother cuts
Like plates washed clean
With suds, the days
Are polished with
A morning haze."

A Hint of Fall
There's just a hint of fall in the air today. The morning is cool and breezy and the sun is less intense. I've enjoyed the summer, but it really makes me look forward to flannel sheets, corn mazes, a simmering pot on the stove and bread fresh from the oven.

Don, Baby's On Fire is a pretty poppy number, really. Catchy, has a beat, decries media destructive sensationalism and/or the cult of celebrity. Replace the edgy backing with a cool drum machine beat and a few stae-of-the-art synth sounds and you have a pop song :)
This has been gone over, but to me pop is not top 40. Pop was easy listening with a back beat, ala Tony and Orlando and Dawn as you said, but a better example to me would be the likes of the Fifth Dimension. I'm not sure what a current example might be, maybe Celene Dion? Thank God for satellite radio. lol
Anyway, I never would have put Baby's on Fire in the pop catagory if for no other reason then it's too raw.

Note: This post hasn't been updated in over 2 years.
Recently we've noticed an increase in incorrectly reported item comments and posts. Maybe you are all working too hard, had a few beers or are not feeling on top of your game. Whatever the reason, read this article to find out how you can flag posts that will help staff respond to you and manage reported posts more efficiently.
Why do comments get flagged or reported?
Comments can be flagged for a variety of reasons; some are accidental (the reply and report button are very close on the item comment section) and others are flagged because they contain inappropriate content including spam, self promotion or abuse.
What happens when you flag an item or forum comment?
When you 'report' a comment it is immediately flagged for staff to check. This means the comment can be deleted, edited or replied to by staff.
What do we need to be careful of when flagging comments?
When you report or flag a comment you are able to explain why. It is important that you provide a correct explanation so that the post can be dealt with in the best way.
What are the common mistakes?
The most common mistake is when users incorrectly press the "report button" instead of "reply". When this happens the post is usually ignored by staff, so be careful which button you press.
The second occurs when reported posts are incorrectly labeled as "spam" or "duplicates".
How can this be fixed?
Take a bit of extra care when flagging or reporting posts.
By taking the time to put a bit of love into your flagged comments, you make it easier for staff to solve your problems making everyone happier.

Popular video game manufacturers Activision Blizzard Incorporated have raised their full year forecast for 2014, because their sales have exceeded the expectations that they had going into the year. Their second quarter results have been better than they had expected, and they are also counting on the sales from the release of upcoming games like "Destiny," and "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. The news increased the value of the company's shares, making it rise by 3 percent in after hours trading, after it closed at $22.36 on Tuesday.
The company said the high digital sales of its "Call of Duty" and "World of Warcraft" franchises drove their non GAAP revenue to $658 million in the second quarter, which was higher than the $608 million they made last year. The company's Chief Executive, Bobby Kotick said the digital revenue was 73 percent of the total they made for the quarter, which is a record for the company, which makes them enthusiastic about the products they will release in the back half of the year. He is expecting the new "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare," to be the most successful game of 2014.
With their sales exceeding expectations, Activision has raised its 2014 non GAAP revenue forecast to $4.7 billion, with earnings of $1.29 per share, which is higher that their earlier forecast of $4.67 billion, and earnings of $1.27 per share.
In addition to the company's expectation of robust sales of the new "Call of Duty" game, Activision is also expecting huge sales numbers from their latest science fiction shooter game, "Destiny," a game that the company invested $500 million into. The company released a beta version of the game, and video gamers have been responding well to it, and it already has strong pre-order numbers, so they are expecting it to do very well once it is released.
Activision is also expecting strong sales from their billion dollar "Skylanders" franchise for children; they intend to release the newest edition of the game called "Skylanders Trap Team" later in the year, which will also help them to increase their revenue in the back half of the year.
With the release of these three new games, Activision might surpass their expectations for the rest of the year, because the "Call of Duty" franchise has been their best selling game franchise to date, and will likely surpass the huge sales they made from the previous edition they released "Call of Duty: Ghosts," which came out in November 2013, and coincided with the release of the next generation consoles, the Playstation 4 and Xbox One, which affected the sales numbers. There is a lot of buzz surrounding "Advanced Warfare," and it is expected to break the franchise sales record, which will make a lot of people at Activision happy.

Below is the poem entitled In An Instant which was written by poet
Flach. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Joe Flach
In an instant my lights went out
as I drove through the light shown green;
Somewhere from the red light side
sped a truck that was unseen.
In an instant my lights went out
with no chance to say goodbye;
I never told my kids I am proud of them
nor listed the reasons why.
In an instant my lights went out,
never again to be turned on;
Make sure you share the pride you feel
before your chance has gone.
