If I knew my husband carried around a gun, had been married 3 times before with domestic violence being a problem, I wouldn't drop the bomb during my daughter's birthday dinner. Heck, I wouldn't even date the man let alone marry him and procreate. It's tragic, but could have been avoided... I feel so bad for the remaining daughter, what a horrific reality she now has to face.
Do people not realize that there are plenty of other alternatives for low cost or free breast cancer screenings or mammograms? Mountain made out of a mole hill.
I'm confused... do fire codes just go out the window on Black Friday? They packed the mall and the store waaayyyyyy over capacity. Disgusting and dangerous.
If people weren't out shopping on Thanksgiving, stores wouldn't be open then. Blame the consumers. Same for the midnight openings for Black Friday - again, stores wouldn't do it if there wasn't a demand.
Can we please have an address to voice an opinion on allowing Lind to continue to keep animals he mistreated? Is the decision already set in stone?
He had to order the coat now so they had time to butcher all the little animals for it... nothing like killing bunnies to wear in the name of Jesus.
oldbengal, the next time you have too many beers at dinner don't go posting on forums, ok?
Every time I see that building (the white 1927 one) I always think that it's beautiful and how it's so awesome it hasn't been torn down.... can't they build around it? The building is unique and pretty and I wish they would fix it up and put something in there rather than tear it down. I'm starting to feel like I'm in Detroit with how much stuff has been getting demolished, even if it's to make way for new.
Bicyclists not following the rules of the road are dangerous for pedestrians, as well. Try crossing the road when a silent bike comes whizzing through the crosswalk because the rider didn't bother to stop at the stop sign. It's dangerous and that is why bikers in the road should stop at ALL stop signs regardless of traffic.
I must say that the casino looks MUCH better than the proposed medical mart, but it will also stick out in a bad way. I could write about how it's a shame that Cleveland will do whatever it takes to get anyone to build here (we're the fat desperate girl who will do anything for some attention) but what's the point? We all know how this will end. Building's coming down, casino parking lot is going up, the city will still continue to decay.
It's funny, this article seems to think that new grads can even GET jobs right now!
HuntingValley... There's a JCPenney's 10 minutes away at Richmond Mall. There's also a Giant Eagle at Legacy Village, and then one right on Mayfield Rd, both a 5 minute drive away. There's a Chipotle at Legacy Village, which would probably beat Qdoba in business, and then there's Chili's and TGI Fridays in Mayfield, no they're not that far away.
With Beachwood Mall, Legacy Village, Richmond Mall, and University Square all just minutes away, (doesn't Legacy's property border on Oakwood's?) it seems over the top to put even more shopping there. It's really a shame it can't be a park, it's a beautiful area.
I'm confused... the last paragraph of the article makes it clear that this is an opinion piece, so why is this not in the opinion section of the paper?
The party at fault here is the Friedmans, not Solon. Those animals would have been euthanized anyways, as shelters are already overcrowded. What sickens me is that two of their children are grown, so they knew this was wrong and yet it appears they never reached out and said something. The father is a doctor, supposedly a respected member of the community, he knew this wasn't sanitary. These people don't sound mentally ill, just stupid and cruel. I hope besides animal cruelty charges there are child endangerment charges as well, these people don't deserve custody. If they can't take care of a dog they clearly can't take care of their kids. All anger should be pointed at the Friedmans (including their adult children) - not Solon.
61 years seems really, really harsh for not actually being the one to shoot anybody. So many murderers get way less time. I usually think sentences are too lenient, but this seems quite unfair. You should never serve more time for a robbery than for a murder. Unless the actual killer gets a larger sentence, this is garbage and I hope they appeal.
As far as I know, the Russian Tea House is closed (the windows have been boarded up for a good while now.)
Anyways, this story was really poorly researched.
This is the idiot who said that no one would miss the old atrium.
"The study's value, Schmidt said, is its demonstration that mothering problems may have a biological basis, possibly even a correctable one."
That's just common sense... they shouldn't have been given a dime to do this useless study to find out what everybody else already knew...
"The answer depends on much more research"... so the answer lies in stupid scientists pockets...
Why do we even bother having the death penalty if we don't use it when we should... such as with this case.
After reading this story, I am left to figure that the judge and prosecutor in this case approve of puppy beating and domestic violence. Looking at his record, it's so painfully obvious he's going to be a repeat violent offender. They just gave him a slap on the wrist and sent him on his merry way. May as well have patted him on the back and given him a thumbs up.

Sierra fires more damaging, partly because of how we fight them
October 29th, 2008 · Comments Off · Bird Habitat, Conservation research, Federal Policy
The Los Angeles Times today writes about a new report that shows that fires in the Sierra are larger, more frequent, and more damaging in the last two decades, partly because of the way the government fights them. Climate is playing some role, the study said. But it blamed a bigger factor: Federal efforts to […]

They should rename Auburn "Bobby Lowder U" and Alabama "University of Paul Bryant Jr". Please take your frivolous UA/AU bickering somewhere else. This is a South Alabama story.
This is a great game for Mobile. I really hope that Mobile can keep it. However, with Ladd and the airport situation, it seems like only a matter of time.
South Alabama has reached the big time in college football: fact
This has been confirmed by Boris: fact
Boris substatiates this by choosing to infiltrate an artilce about South with his incessant babbling in the comments section: Double fact
I hope he is successful on the field and well as the class room. Engineering is a tough major, no matter the discipline. South has a great engineering program, and I would put the South grads up against any of the AU or UA grads.
Footbass I am not sure what you mean by "meaningful", but the link to see future Jag opponents is listed below.
We play NC State this year. Also, noticeably absent from this list is both UA and AU. You think they may be a little "scared"? They both refuse to play Troy. Maybe it is beacuse we would require at least a 2 for 1 like we have with Miss St. Don't worry, in the next few years we will have "meaningful" college football in Mobile, and no one expects you to come out and watch. You can sit on your couch with a case of Old Milwaukee and watch the Tide.
This great for South Alabama and Courtney Smith. Jag Nation is supporting him all the way. Go Jags!!!
His life long friend that doesn't have NFL talent stated that the syrup was his. I guess that means that there was no real evidence against Russell. His buddy does some time and Russell gets another shot. I am sure Russell will take care of him when he gets out.
Favre's possible actions inappropriate. Ms. Sterger's mission should she choose to accept it become famous; Missions Accomplished.
Totally agree PBeavr. 23,000 is respectable at this time. I am happy that the Tide decided to play Ga. State it has given the Jags some free press and got us on the Alabama football main page for at least one story. I have no idea why the AU and UA fanatics care about USA football. They should be indifferent but there are always some that hate all thing not either UA or AU. These are the same idiots that count the number of stories that AU and UA have in the Mobile paper and call sound off if they have been slighted.
I don't think that the government truly stands in the way of any big business. It is the lobby that runs the country. All politicians are taking for someone. That is why I feel that it should be outlawed, but the people who can outlaw it won't because they benefit from it.
On a side note I am hope these drilling permits get approved soon and drilling commences. This will help the Gulf coast economy. I feel that drilling can be done safely and these new regulations will create even more jobs. However it is a tragedy that a rig exploded and 11 died for this new awarnees to come about.
The way Curry is talking up the Jags makes me nervous. Kinda like the Ole Ball Coach talking up the Tide this year. I guess the difference is that the Jags are at home.
Agreed. However, the NFL is in love with the big arm. Look at how many chance Jeff George got.
I just hope that the Jags win. I don't care about how convincingly they win. That being said I am very pleased with how practice went this week according to CJJ and optimistic about the outcome..
I am also pleased that agalum1 is posting on al.com. It is great for the the Jags, the Mobile area, and the website to have UC davis fans reading our stories and making comments. I have enjoyed interaction with the Davis fans more than any other opposing team's fan's in the short history of USA football. I am looking forward to UC Davis coming to Mobile next year, and sad I couldn't make it to Davis this year.
Every platforma and drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico is crewed with at least 99% Americans. That is not to mention all of the bussinesses and shops that support the operation. It is rediciolus For anyone to say that drilling and oil production can't exist with our coastal economy. It has existed for 60 years. Oil is everyones dirty little secret no one wants it in their back yard and yet they still drive their SUV to Wal-Mart.
"I want to know why South Alabama's football program tries to fool everybody. We know what kind of schedule they play. They're talking about playing at Lamar Saturday and how it's going to be a tough game and all. Stephen F. Austin just beat Lamar 71-3. Quit all that stuff and tell the people how it is."
I love the free press that USA is getting from the idiots calling Sound Off. This puts South bashers on the same page with UA fans bashing AU and the AU fans bashing UA.
South is in season two and has not played any great competition as of yet, but that time will come. When it does come the likes of Miss State, Navy, NC State, Oklahoma State, and Southern Miss will all come to Mobile. If people want to still love Alabama and Auburn then so be it, but please realize that South Alabama football is good for the University of South Alabama and good for Mobile.
Not sure if Wright Waters is correct, but I love it. South fans are happy, but according to the message boards Troy fans not so much. Go Jags USA!!!!!

In one sitting this week I read Outside the Wire: The War in Afghanistan in the Words of its Participants, a collection of stories by Canadian soldiers, doctors and aid workers about life at war. I cringed at the military rhetoric—hunting down enemies, cheering on the action (i.e. killing), thrilling over the power of weaponry—but I was moved by the sense of solidarity (and not simply fraternity), commitment to a cause, and the longing to return to Afghanistan (i.e. to war) after settling once again into the comforts (and dullness, as some admitted) of Canadian life.
I realized with some surprise as I read these very personal accounts, how easy it was for me to identify with these soldiers, despite my vehement opposition to war as a solution for anything. We hear poignant stories of Afghan children, of a growing love for the country and culture, and of heartwarming efforts by aid workers like Mike Frastacky, who established a school independent of any aid organization (and was killed for political reasons by an anti-government group). Mixed in with these stories, we read detailed accounts of various military operations, the deaths of "the enemy" mentioned casually, offhandedly. If we're not looking for it, we may not even notice that anyone died in Afghanistan without purpose, without a great, incalculable, moral cause.
In one story bagpipes are brought out in the middle of a tense situation with Taliban fighters a kilometer away. U.S. and Afghan National Army soldiers paused to listen and snap photos. In another, a female soldier writes to her family—in the weeks before her death—about how she negotiated cultural differences with the shocked Afghan elders encountering a married woman (without her husband!) in the army, and with the Afghan soldiers she astounded by hiking with the men for 10 km, up 2,000 feet, with 100 pounds of equipment on her back. We read this and smile, maybe remembering our own distant travels, as though we are reading a Lonely Planet guidebook about the adventures of backpackers everywhere.
Their moral certitude about their work, their pride in serving Canada (bestowed with a unified, monolithic identity that the rest of us may not see or care for), in the end persuades us all too easily. Ultimately, there is no discernible difference between the humanitarian workers, the doctors and the soldiers who are trained to kill. The seamlessness of these stories allows us to forget the humanity of the Afghan fighters—yes, even the Taliban are human (and let's remember many are boys)—and to forget that there might be other ways to achieve this sense of solidarity and the adrenalin of battle. How easy to forget that killing is the goal.
Anyone who has ever been involved in a cause will recognize the solidarity and even euphoria it can inspire in the stories of soldiers longing to return to the life they had when they were at war. The intense desire for a purpose can pull us back into the most difficult, dangerous, even life-threatening situations.
Here is what Corporal Ryan Pagnacco (the bagpipe player) said at the end of his gripping tale of a near-death experience thanks to "friendly fire": "Our brotherhood of warriors, the finest of men, has been forged in battle: baptized by fire and quenched in tears. We became, and will always be, a fraternity of blood with a bond stronger than death. I will remember always those few days when I truly lived and nearly died." We should pay attention to the "stronger than death" bit. The thrill of war seems to arise there—in every triumph over death. This is why peacekeeping is considered to be quite boring to those who are trained to kill. And why there is a qualitative moral difference between a soldier's story of life in Afghanistan, and a lonely aid worker's.

Morgan Newton may be UK's starting quarterback against Tennessee due to Max Smith's injury.
From UK Athletics
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Kentucky football team began its week of practice by moving indoors to the Nutter Training Facility because of steady rain in the Lexington area over the past few days.
Kentucky began its preparation for Southeastern Conference rival Tennessee on Monday without true freshman quarterback Maxwell Smith, who has started the past three games. Smith was injured in Kentucky's game at Georgia and did not practice Tuesday, but is expected to be able to return later in the week.
UK head coach Joker Phillips said that junior quarterback Morgan Newton is probably less banged up than Smith, although he is still ailing from ankle and shoulder injuries.
While the Wildcats try to get their top two quarterback options healthy, Tennessee returned its starting quarterback from injury last week in the form of sophomore Tyler Bray. In his first game back, Bray led Tennessee to a victory over Vanderbilt, completing 16-of-33 passes for 189 yards.
"He looked sharp to me," Phillips said about Bray. "He made some big-time throws and he has a big time weapon out there in the (Da'Rick) Rogers kid. He caught 10 of them last week and if he (Bray) gets it anywhere near him then that guy can make a play for him. That is confidence for a quarterback."
Also on the injury side, true freshman defensive tackle Christian Coleman did not practice, while Phillips said sophomore defensive tackle Donte Rumph continues to improve from his injury.
Kentucky will resume practice on Wednesday.

Patrick Shea, National Park Service
(303) 969-2347
Patrick Shea, a landscape architect with the National Park Service's Denver Service Center, led a project team and partnership effort to make the new Visitor Center at Zion National Park as resource efficient as possible, seeking to minimize its impact on the environment while enhancing the visitor's experiences. Energy reducing strategies were developed with assistance from the Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory, which, overall, have reduced energy consumption by 80 percent over traditional building use.
Patrick Shea and Assistant Secretary Lynn Scarlett
In the winter, a Trombe wall, which captures solar energy between a pane of glass and black selective coating, slowly heats the south facing masonry walls and radiates heat throughout the building. In the summer, natural ventilation is enhanced with down-draft cooltowers, which serve as the building's primary cooling system. Photovoltiac panels reduce imported energy requirements further by generating on-site 7,200 watts, nearly 30 percent of the electricity used. Site orientation and facility use strategies also contribute to the efficiency of the Visitor Center. Utilizing the favorable climatic and site conditions, indoor building space was reduced by designing outdoor interpretive display areas in a shaded plaza. The Visitor Center also serves as the hub for a new transportation system that transports visitors from the gateway town of Springdale, Utah, into the park on propane-fueled shuttle buses. This system allowed the design team to reduce the parking lot size by half.

Thousands without power in southern W.Va.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Thousands of utility customers remain without power after severe storms rolled through parts of southern West Virginia.
Appalachian Power's website says about 3,300 customers had no electrical service Thursday, including 1,900 in Kanawha County.
The storms caused a hillside to collapse in South Charleston, and media outlets report several people had to be rescued from high water in Kanawha County.
The weather service says more storms were expected Thursday that could bring local downpours, although no widespread flash flooding is anticipated.

By: Gadi Schwartz, KOB Eyewitness News 4
A family gathered outside the offices of the state Public Regulation Commission in Santa Fe Friday.
They were protesting about the suicide of their loved one. The Prada family says their mother worked at the Commission for over 20 years, but that over the past two year they allege workplace bullying of Annette Prade became unbearable.
50-year-old Annette Prada was found dead Thursday in Cochiti Lake from what the family told KOB Eyewitness News 4 was a suicide.
The family says Prada was tormented at work by high ranking supervisors and believe that she was bullied into killing herself.
"She wanted to get through it through the help of Christ pero it didn't work that way because all these people were always against her and they just wouldn't let her in peace," Prada's father Ramon Roybal said.
The Commission sent out the following prepared statement on Prada's death: "The public regulation commission is shocked and saddened by this unfortunate event. We extend our deepest sympathies and support to those affected by this tragedy."
When asked about the allegations of bullying by supervisors, a spokesperson for the Commission said the agency had not received any formal complaints of bullying.

Boise State's president said his counterpart at Ohio State's claim that Big Ten and Southeastern Conference teams play a "murderer's row" schedule "is the greatest exaggeration I think we've heard this year in college football."
In an interview with the Idaho Statesman on Wednesday, Boise State president Bob Kustra angrily responded to Ohio State president Gordon Gee's statement that TCU and Boise State don't deserve to be in the Bowl Championship Series title game even if they run the table.
"[Gee] claims that in the SEC, Big Ten and Big 12 it's murderer's row every week and there's absolutely little substance to that claim," Kustra told the newspaper. "The BCS has finally found someone to stand up and defend the indefensible and Gordon Gee proved it — he not just proved that it's indefensible but he did so with facts that are simply wrong.
"Everyone in intercollegiate football knows that athletic directors of those large power conferences are scheduling more and more teams who are I-AA, who are teams at the weaker end of the non-[automatic-qualifier] conferences, and for Gee to stand up and talk about murderer's row every week is just the height of folly. It's ridiculous. I think he's going to set off a firestorm he probably has no interest in creating. To say that he overstated his case is an understatement."
Gee said of the power conferences' schedules: "We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor."
Kustra had Ohio State's last two schedules in front of him — the Buckeyes have played Southern California and Miami, in addition to several mid-majors and directional schools — and said, "If they're not playing the Little Sisters of the Poor, they're playing the Little Brothers."
He added: "Maybe president Gee doesn't go to the games of the teams that are not in his Big Ten, but he's playing some easy marks."
TCU athletic director Chris Del Conte also stepped into the fray, defending the Horned Frogs' unblemished record.
"We only worry about our house and what we do at TCU," he said. "I'll put our record up against anybody."
Kustra said he had to speak up after hearing Gee's comments.
"I just hope that when he speaks about his research profile or the quality of his university he's a little more believable than he is about athletics, because he's just so wrong on this one," Kustra told the Statesman. "If anything, ridiculous and inaccurate presentations like this from a major university president will go further to make our case.
"It makes the point I've been making all along that this fundamentally must be about presidents and not athletic directors and not conference commissioners. Presidents who stand up and talk about values and trust and fairness and access and equity speak with forked tongue when it comes to athletics — and it makes no sense to me how they can be so absolutely wrong and know it and yet stand up as the pillars of moral rectitude."
The controversy began when Gee defended the BCS and the current bowl system earlier in the day in an interview with The Associated Press.
"Well, I don't know enough about the Xs and Os of college football," said Gee, formerly the president at West Virginia, Colorado, Brown and Vanderbilt. "I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it's like murderer's row every week for these schools."
Referring to TCU and Boise State, he added, "I think until a university runs through that gantlet that there's some reason to believe that they not be the best teams to (be) in the big ballgame."
That left both TCU and Boise State angry.
"We go through the gantlet every single day," Del Conte said.
Kustra noted that most of the power conferences refuse to schedule his school.
"It's easy for the presidents to talk, but ask the ADs when's the last time that they seriously entertained taking requests or inviting Boise State to (play them)," Kustra said. "If you're Boise State or TCU, they're going to want to steer way clear of you."
He said he had phone records that would prove that Boise State had tried to schedule home-and-home games with Top 25 teams from the BCS conferences, but that they would not play the Broncos anywhere but at their home stadium. Boise State recently agreed to play Georgia next year, and Mississippi in 2014, in Atlanta's Georgia Dome.
Gee, long a proponent of the BCS and the bowl system, said the current format to decide a national champion is superior to other options.
"If you put a gun to my head and said, 'What are you going to do about a playoff system (if) the BCS system as it now exists goes away?' I would vote immediately to go back to the bowl system," he said.
Gee called a playoff system "a slippery slope to professionalism."
Kustra told the Statesman that conference commissioners control presidents on the issue of a playoff.
"Everyone understands this system needs overhauling, needs reform. We probably need to sit down and think about a playoff system. The only outliers are the presidents of the schools in the large conferences. … They're like puppets on a string for their conference commissioners. Once they are brought out into the open for their inaccuracies and falsehoods in their thinking, in Gee's case, the sooner I think the system falls on its own."
Kustra also said most teams from the power conferences follow a simple blueprint when scheduling these days.
"The formula these days for BCS teams is get seven or eight home games, play one non-conference game against a team from another BCS league, schedule three or four patsies and try not to leave the state if you can help it," he said.
He also said that the SEC's Florida Gators have not left the state to play a non-conference, regular-season opponent since 1991.
Gee said that it was some of the quirkier moments in the BCS which made it endearing. He cited 2007 when Ohio State lost its final home game of the season to drop to eighth in the BCS rankings, then benefited from a long series of upsets to make it into the national championship game, where they lost to LSU 38-24.
"You know, it's a mystery," Gee said. "We were No. 1, then No. 11, then No. 7 and we ended up playing for the national championship. I think I kind of like that mixed-up mystery."
TCU has earned an opportunity to at least be considered to play in the national championship game, Del Conte said.
"We have a wonderful coach, a great football program and at this point in time, we're undefeated heading in the right direction," he said. "Look at our overall body of work the last 10 years — it stacks up against anybody."

Baroness doesn't repeat itself. The Georgia quartet is shifty in that way; it finds a sound, hones it, and then leaves it behind to search for new, more challenging sonic territory. 2007's Red Album was a pummeling debut LP, definitive of the sludgy metal brewing in Georgia at the time. Although frontman John Baizley screamed most of his lyrics, his knack for melody was evident on songs like "Wanderlust" and taken a step further on 2009's sprawling Blue Record.
Yellow & Green sees Baroness going full-on melodic, embracing space and mood rather than bombast. Now, Baizley sings more often than he screams. Let the backlash begin: "Baroness is getting soft." In the cutthroat world of heavy metal fandom, Yellow & Green is a death wish. But that's irrelevant. Music should be judged on merit, not expectations. And Baroness has no interest in fulfilling your expectations. They might wield heavy metal weaponry—the beards, the fuzzy power chords, the fantastical motifs and cover art—but they think like art rockers, never satisfied with sticking to a formula or re-imagining past efforts.
Yellow & Green isn't a double album, but two separate albums functioning as one. The record's press release makes it clear: Tracks 1-9 are Yellow, tracks 10-18 are Green. It's imperative that listeners make this distinction because, let's face it, 90% of double LPs are bloated, cumbersome, convoluted. Baroness avoids these traps by separating the albums, and it wasn't done arbitrarily, as each side has its own vibe.
Yellow begins with a thematic intro (the band's always had a propensity for instrumental interludes) before launching into "Take My Bones Away", a souring anthem that's as poppy as it is metallic. There are prog-y keyboard flourishes, buildups, drop outs, lyrics about pills—Baroness crams a lot into the song's five-minute runtime and somehow pulls it off. All the while, Baizley sings, his voice finding a safe middleground between Dave Grohl and James Hetfield.
Baroness sways to and fro, foiling loud moments with gentle ones. "Little Things" opens with calm, jangly guitar that latches onto Allen Blickle's propulsive drumming. By the end of the track, solos are ringing, distortion is churning, and Baizley is belting a chorus of "When the tide rolls in…" This climax comes out of nowhere and segues into "Twinkler", a gorgeous acoustic ballad akin to Blue Records' "Steel That Sleeps the Eye". Baizley composed much of Yellow & Green at home while his infant daughter slept in the other room. Perhaps that's why the soft songs are so affecting. They're played with care and attention (which can also be said for most of the musicianship on the album), and John Congleton's production hides not a single note. Yellow closer "Eula" is especially notable for its sonic palette: Baizley's shouts of "I can't forget the taste of my own blood" remain distinguishable amidst loud drums and deafening swarm of guitars.
Baroness downshifts on Green. The tempos are slower, the songs less immediate. "Board Up the House" kicks off with a plodding bassline and Baizley crooning, "We wanted the best for our sweet little September castaway/ I'm already gone." It's fruitless to deduce meaning from his lyrics because they've always been cryptic. However, on Yellow & Green, his words seem rooted more in reality than medieval imagery (as was the case on past releases). Guitarist Pete Adams also experiments. When Baizley's melodies fall flat ("Psalms Alive"), Adams' twangy fills and layered effects provide a safety net. The songs never lose their momentum. Adams takes center stage on Green's finale, "The Line Between", his fingers flying across the fretboard while Baizley makes his closing statements: "Walk the line between the righteous and the wicked/And tomorrow I'll be gone." The album ends peacefully with "I Forget Thee, Low Country", an outro of ambient guitar.
At nearly 80 minutes in length, Yellow & Green is a daunting record made less daunting when divided in half. Yellow is the day to Green's night; they're mutually exclusive. Tracks are sequenced for maximum effect, flowing into one another via crossfades and interludes. This artsy approach might be off-putting for fans of Baroness' more aggressive output. So be it. Baroness possesses an acute sense of melody, unpredictable songwriting, and vision for its work. Yellow & Green encapsulates all of those things, and, consequently, it's one of the year's most engaging metal albums.
Essential Tracks: "Take My Bones Away", "Eula"

The New Practices New York juried portfolio competition took place on Wednesday. This biennial competition, sponsored by the AIA New York chapter and now in its third iteration, has quickly become one of New York City's most important launching pads for architects who have been in practice for less than five years. The winners are featured in an exhibition at the Center for Architecture, which usually travels to the national AIA convention and other architectural societies (this year's winners will be featured in Sao Paulo, Brazil) plus a one-year free membership in the AIA and visibility as a firm on the rise in this highly competitive city. This year's jury included Toshiko Mori as lead juror, Joe MacDonald (a New Practices winner in 2008), Guy Nordenson, Galia Solomonoff, and yours truly. After reviewing nearly 70 portfolios Read More

Florian Idenburg just sent us this video, part of SO-IL's presentation to the Young Architecture Program jury for their winning design, Pole Dance, which will be the pavilion for this summer's Warm Up at P.S.1. No wonder he and Jing Liu prevailed. Could there be a bigger architecture party in the works? Who knew a "a metaphor for these uncertain times," as we put it, could be so much fun. If this turns out even half as well as in the video, it will probably be the best pavilion yet, so much so, Simon and Garfunkel will be forced to reunite and perform. (As for concerned neighbors, Idenburg assured us in Thursday's interview that the balls will not be able to jump the wall.)

Azar Alizadeh
(GE Global Research)
Ice accretion on surfaces of aircrafts, wind turbine blades, oil and gas rigs and heat exchangers, to name a few examples, presents long recognized problems with respect to efficiency and cost of operation. For instance, significant ice accretion on critical surfaces of an aircraft will cause problems during lift off (and will change the aerodynamics of the wings during flight. On the other hand, ice built up on wind turbine blades in cold climates (T $<$ -20\r{ }C) drastically reduces the efficiency of power generation. Despite considerable number of studies and significant progress toward development of icephobic coatings, development of \textit{robust ice-resistance or anti-icing coatings} is still elusive. Several approaches towards development of anti-icing surfaces have recently postulated that the superhydrophobic properties of hierarchically textured coatings, with contact angles $>$ 150\r{ }, may lead to a significant reduction and perhaps elimination of snow and ice accretion. However, the exact mechanism of delayed icing on these surfaces is still under debate. Here we present a systematic study of early stages of ice formation upon water droplet impact on a range of hydrophobic, hydrophilic, textured and chemically patterned surfaces. We show that, in addition to a significant reduction in ice-adhesion strength on superhydrophobic surfaces, decreasing the water-substrate contact area plays a \textit{dual} role in delaying ice nucleation: first by reducing heat-transfer and second by reducing the probability of heterogeneous nucleation at the water-substrate interface. The study presented here also offers a comprehensive perspective on the efficacy of textured surfaces for practical non-icing applications.

OMG THEY ARE TRYING TO SCREW US!!! I cant believe they want us to go to Arkansas, so I guess last year the SEC screwed over Florida by making them take a road trip to Syracuse. I cant believe the SEC treated Florida like that!They should have just sent their walk-ons to the dome to teach them a lesson for asking them to play a road game.Ridiculous fans.
Yeah I was there and you? mis-info, I forgot more about the acc than you will ever know so who is mis-informed? they are a dry conference no matter what anyone says and I have been to several of their arenas and I would bet you haven't.
Quit with all the ACC cant come soon enough crap.The big East is a much better basketball conference and do you think that Cuse can tell the acc we cant participate in the big 10/ acc challenge the day the scheduals come out? I think not.Everbody trying to act like a crime has been commited because they owe a road contest.This would not be an issue if they were owed a home game and we all know it.Acc tournament draws about 1500 people to some games and most on here talk like its the best thing Cuse has ever done. I give a year or two and you will all be wishing we never left the big east, mark my words.Sunday night games with no alcohol served, can't wait.
True story, noboby eats lunch at 9 pm.Enough with the 2 lost centers crap. Like the NCAA is going to put an asterisk next to Duke and Kentucky's championships and put a side note ( syracuse would have won but their centers got injured) Lets just give it up people .
Its a good thing they were treated privately for the cuts. I didn't know they treated people in public.
How do you over commit when you still owe a road game. Good thing Florida didn't overcommit last season when they came to Cuse.Perhaps we could call Long Beach Methodist or Dartmouth and explain to them that they won't be able to come to the Dome next year because we have a commitment on the road with a legit program.Ridiculous that Cuse would even consider thinking they get a home game and think they don't have to go on the road. Espn will talk about this all year if they refuse to go on the road and Syracuse has no legit excuse to even try this crap.
Dr. Gross just please make this happen. We took the home contest vs Florida last year so please take a road game in return.This will only fuel Vitale, Gottlieb and all the keyboard warriors fire with the won't leave home garbage.If Cuse pulls out and plays at home against Central Michigan or Canasius we will get hounded all season long by Espn.And we will deserve it.
Cuse in for another great season, Dajuan will have a learning curve no doubt but will also show signs of brilliance.This kid will be a beast within 2 years and he won't be pushed around down low.I didn't know JB forces the locals to be great either. Haters gonna hate and real Cuse fans gonna love Dajuan.
Reporter almost sounded as though he was begging him to ' help your brother out" the other thing that has really started bothering me about this is how did Davis get Tomaselli's number?
good luck Fab and thanx for coming to Syracuse University.Hope you have a long and profitable career in the NBA.Nevermind all the haters, we wouldn't have won 34 games without you.
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/03/29/florida-teen-faces-life-sentence-in-slaying-british-tourists/ not as much publicity about this one, kinda strange.
Wow I hhttp://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/03/29/florida-teen-faces-life-sentence-in-slaying-british-tourists/aven't heard much about this one, have you?
httpwhy is this case not getting as much publicity ....I wonder ?http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/03/29/florida-teen-faces-life-sentence-in-slaying-british-tourists/in-slaying-british-tourists/
Good luck Dion!I am very happy you came here and this special year wouldn't have been possible without you.Gotta a feeling in a couple years people are going to see you were the steal of this draft.Keep making Cuse proud kid.You are forever orange.
Why is there no poll for senior leadership? thats the one I wanted to vote on.Joseph with zero rebounds, come on.Team showed alot of heart fighting back and they should be applauded for that. Dion Waiters was amazing! This is not the time of the year for the seniors to be a weakness though.
Rakeem x-mas looked very tough yesterday.Definetly gave great minutes in the first half and showed why he belongs in rotation.MCW, we all know he's that good so we just expect good minutes now.Can't wait to see those 2 and Cooney for these next 3-4 years.Great season and future looks just as good.
I bet his legacy isn't in question when people need him to help raise money for their charities.Guy raises more for cancer research than any other coach in the country and aside from Syracuse fans knowone else knows it. Media is too busy speculating what wrongs he might be up to.
nevermind missouri, from this point on when the term 2nd rate comes up the name Brent Axe should always come to the front of the line.Talk about scared to ask the tough questions.Pat, thanx for coming on the show and making it sound like Syracuse has alot to hide and should be deeply investigated.you are pathetic Axe!!
H e brings up Baylor as a comparison and leaves out the Baylor drug sanctions involved one their team members murdering another!!

Chapel Speaker Challenges Dreamers
By Amanda Morad | February 1, 2013
Pastor Janeen McBath
Pastor Janeen McBath, co-pastor of Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk, Va., and founding president of House of Esther Ministries, was a featured guest at Regent University's weekly chapel service on Wednesday, Jan. 30. Concluding the series "The Least of These," McBath spoke about the role of dreams in reaching out to those in need.
"Dream big so that you can serve big," she began. Quoting Proverbs 13:12, she reminded chapelgoers that "a dream fulfilled is a tree of life. Dream in such a way that at the end of your life, there is more to be given.
"Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. dreamed so big he couldn't finish all that he dreamed in his lifetime," she said. "Every leader must have the desire to also be a legacy leaver."
No matter what Christians dream, McBath explained, the goal should be the service of others. "We have to find the opportunity in our lifetime to take the Good News to the community around us," she said. "Don't just live for yourself; live so that you can make an impact."
McBath recounted a little of her upbringing in Boston's inner-city projects. "Every dream must go through hardship," she said. "At that time, I was considered 'the least of these.'"
"You must determine that the enemy cannot keep you from your dream," she encouraged. "If I had allowed others' opinions to steal my dreams, I wouldn't have been able to reach anyone.
"Many of us are under the misconception that in order to be a leader, you have to do something big. But there are people everywhere who need you. You have the power to reach the least of these—you can not only make a difference, you can be the difference in someone's life."
As she closed, McBath challenged students to be determined to make a difference in their communities: "No matter what you do, dream bigger than yourself."

An appreciation of Richard Lester as a retrospective of his work is about to unfold in New York City.
The principles of the Enlightenment, which would inspire the French Revolution, first took practical shape in Denmark in the 18th century. The books and ideas of Voltaire and Rousseau arrived there under the arm of Dr. Johann Struensee, a German physician who was hired to care for the young King Christian VII, and eventually took very good care indeed of his comely new queen from Britain, Queen Caroline Mathilde.
Their risky love affair and clandestine guidance of Danish politics provide rich material for "A Royal Affair," a big budget historical drama that carries Denmark's hopes into the Oscar season. It provides still more exposure for the rising Danish star Mads Mikkelsen, the latest male sex symbol of the art house crowd. He plays Struensee, a social reformer ahead of his time.
Queen Caroline (Alicia Vikander) arrives in Denmark for a royal marriage, and discovers that the rumors she's heard about her intended husband, the king (Mikkel Boe Folsgaard), are true. First seen by us hiding behind a tree and by her displaying an odd giggle, he's mentally deranged and infantile. After finding he doesn't much like marriage, he suddenly determines to make a grand tour of Europe, and the elders of the court hire Struensee to travel along and see what can be done with him.
Struensee finds him to be putty in his hands, easily influenced, and when they return to Copenhagen, with Caroline and a new royal infant, he stays on within the royal household. Denmark at the time was a place where rich aristocrats ruled and such reforms as orphanages seemed dangerously radical. Caroline, in love with Struensee, also falls in love with what the doctor tells her about Voltaire's politics, and she uses her influence with the king to change the nation's history.
Christian was essentially a figurehead, useful for public display and dismissed by the powers in his court. His innocence and cluelessness are sort of endearing. The doctor has a masterstroke: He uses Caroline to persuade her husband to take command of his kingdom, as after all he is permitted to do under the constitution. One reform follows another, to the consternation of the suddenly powerless court.
Strangely, the illicit couple seem more in love with what they're doing than with each other. Yes, they're "in love," but it isn't the earth that shakes, it's the kingdom. As the power behind the throne once removed, Mikkelsen is well-cast as a strong leading man who is also convincing as an intellectual and reformer.
Nikolaj Arcel, the director, makes good use of locations in Prague, everybody's favorite backdrop for a historical European city, and the players and costumes make this look like a historical romance. It's ever so much more, as we discover in scenes that bracket the main action, revealing the tensions and dangers experienced by the brave young queen. Is it too much to suspect that she carried on her affair for reasons of idealism, not lust?
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...

It's a big weekend for one local college football team. Hobart takes another big step toward a national title and this team has a lot of local talent on it.
The Statesmen are undefeated heading into the weekend's quarterfinals and are ranked seventh in the nation. Their 12 wins sets a second record and although this Saturday won't be easy, this team is more than ready for the challenge.
Hobart Head Coach Mike Cragg is trying to prepare his team for their biggest game of the season. He doesn't talk about making school history or setting more records.
Mike Cragg, Hobard Football Head Coach, said, "Don't be satisfied with what we've done, we need to prepare not about missing school time, the flight or the hotel, but preparing for St. Thomas."
The Statesmen are flying to uncharted territory to St. Paul, Minnesota, taking on St. Thomas, who are also 12-0 and the fourth ranked team in the nation.
Devin Worthington, junior linebacker, said, "Every week, we focus on a different goal of what we want to do hold opponents to points and cause turnovers."
Former Aquinas linebacker Devin Worthington is a key member of the Statesmen's top ranked overall defense. Webster defensive end Mark Guarino-Hyde says senior leadership has been the difference.
Mark Guarino-Hyde, freshman defensive end, said, "They are the best senior leaders they keep everyone working hard. They don't let people get off topic and not thinking about football."
On the offensive side of the ball, the Statesman haven't scored less than 28 points. Dundee's Steven Webb has a lot to do with that, producing his fourth 100 yard rushing game last weekend.
Steven Webb, junior running back, said, "What teams don't know is we can pass it as well as we run it."
St. Thomas maybe the more experienced team. They dominated St. John Fisher College in last year's NCAA quarterfinals. Their offensive line is big and poised for this postseason push.
Devin Worrington, junior linebacker, said, "We know they are a powerhouse team. They've been to the final four before. It will be tough. We have to mind our p's and q's to get a win."
The NCAA quarterfinal matchup between Hobart and St. Thomas is Saturday at 1pm at St. Paul, Minnesota.

He is at the helm of menswear design at Lanvin, but working alongside Alber Elbaz doesn't scare Lucas Ossendrijver. On the contrary, they seem to have an outstandingly productive working relationship, where Alber's creative imagination about womenswear is met by Lucas' ability to mix and match menswear into a patchwork of high and low, formal and casual, without losing the quintessential elegance of the House of Lanvin. This season, S/S11, is a little more fitted and more aerodynamic than the previous ones. Lucas sheds some light on the concept behind it and also gives us a glimpse into the forthcoming capsule collection for H & M.
This season the models seem to come from another world, which is a bit darker, a bit rougher, but also a bit more sophisticated than our present one. What's the main inspiration behind that vision?
It was actually a very fast show this season. You had the impression the boys were just passing by almost. It was about movement, aerodynamics and speed. Also more body conscious, fitted; the sweaters were almost like a second skin. We were showing the body instead of covering it. It was quite natural to me to mix cycling shorts with tailoring and knitwear.
Does it have a strong feminine element to it, especially through the many accessories and jewellery?
We love to mix up. We like to twist things. This season we tried to make tailoring almost fitted wear, so you have this hybrid thing. Even the knit and the sportswear become really chic and elegant. We don't make sportswear but we transform it into something elegant. And accessories, yes, the jewellery is quite tough this season. We were asking ourselves: Is it too feminine, is it ok? But in the end we said, if women can wear pants, men can wear jewellery.
All the history that comes with the house of Lanvin is very much focused on the womenswear, isn't it?
Jeanne Lanvin actually introduced menswear in the 1920s. It was very classic and all bespoke. But now men are ready to experiment a little bit more. I see men coming to our shop and they know exactly which pieces they want. There is a lot of attention on menswear but it does not change very quickly. It is a slow process and there is still a lot do be done.
Sounds like very good times for the Lanvin man! How close do you and Alber Elbaz actually work together?
Lanvin has an amazing archive for womenswear, but for men there is hardly anything. So I had to build that from scratch, which gave me a lot of freedom. And I also could work with Alber in a very a natural process, in an exchange. I am very fortunate to have somebody like him. We don't really do official meetings, but I like to go to his studio to see what's going on, to feel the atmosphere there. And we talk; we talk a lot. It's a very special relationship.
And then there is H & M…
Yes, I am actually really happy that H & M approached us for this collaboration. By doing this we can bring our classic pieces to a larger audience, without losing quality actually. But it is also about being generous. And it is very Lanvin what you are going to see.

OXNARD, Calif. (July 31, 2012) -- Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garrett has no problem with Jerry Jones' emphatic comments about the NFC East-rival New York Giants, who are the defending Super Bowl champions.
During a ceremony opening the Cowboys' camp in California, Jones told about 5,000 fans that they should come to Cowboys Stadium and "watch us beat the Giants' (butts)."
That drew a large cheer.
When asked about the comment Tuesday, Garrett said Jones has owned the team for 23 years, "so he can do anything he wants."
Then Garrett was given a chance to make a similar statement.
Garrett says he is not making any guarantees, and that the Cowboys are working hard to put a great team together.
Dallas opens the season on the road against the Giants. New York will play at Cowboys Stadium on Oct. 28.

Western Nevada College President Carol Lucey on Wednesday announced she is stepping down from her post immediately, according to a message she sent to the college community.
Lucey in July said she would step down from her position at the Carson City campus once a national search had been conducted and a replacement had been named. In her Wednesday message, she says she had hoped to depart from the school between January 2014 and the end of the spring semester.
However, the presidential search has not yet begun.
"For many reasons, I have decided to step down immediately," she said in her message.
