By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate general manager
The phone on the other end of the line rang and rang and rang.
Finally a harsh electronic voice came on the line that said, "Enter your access code now."
I had kind of expected a "Hello, this is Joe Blow..." kind of message or at least an artificial voice that said "Leave a message at the tone." But no; to leave a message for the person I was calling, I needed an access code.
Well I didn't need to talk to them bad enough to try some unknown numbers so I hung up.
It seems that is the way our society is today. We just can't do without voice messaging, cell phones and PDA's (okay if you don't know what that means I had to ask around the office too. It is a Personal Data Assistant).
There is a segment of our society however that isn't so sold on these recent electronic gadgets though. You see them everywhere; poor lost souls who are not in communication with the world at all times. I pity and envy them at the same time.
Some ask, "What is wrong with these people."
I ask, "What do they know that I don't?"
In fact it wasn't that long ago that I didn't think cell phones were a needed accessory to my belt line. I remember being on a plane in the mid-1990's and as soon as it pulled up to the gate some guy in front of me got on his cell phone, just to chit chat. I thought then how ridiculous those phones were.
"Who could possibly need to be in touch all the time?" I mumbled to myself as people pushed and shoved to get off the plane first. A guy behind me agreed and shook his head.
But my kids, who all loved their cell phones began to remind me constantly that I was always one to say "We should look to change for the answers."
They finally got me to buy one in 1999, and I basically have not been without it since. I have to say it sure cured those missing someone you were supposed to meet in a busy part of Salt Lake incidents. Or how about all those times when I get sidetracked at a mall and my family heads off another direction. Now all I have to do is call them up.
I always hear complaints about cell phone etiquette, and I really have to agree. This past fall I was actually at a family funeral, in fact in the family prayer when someones cell phone started to play "Happy Days Are Here Again" to everyone, except the owners, chagrin. Even worse though was the fact that the person who owned the phone actually answered the damn thing and began a conversation right then and there. I felt many hands come together in a strangulation hold while the woman gabbed on like nothing important was going on.
But if you think that urge to answer a cell phone is only an American phenomenon, guess again.
A recent article in the Wall Street Journal pointed out that the Chinese are much worse about using cell phones anywhere or everywhere. While land lines in the United States have been around almost everywhere for over 75 years, the regular telephone network in China has always been lacking, and never really developed much. However with the recent boom in China's economy, land line communication has been passed right by and once cellular technology took hold, it has become the main way the Chinese communicate with each other. According to the piece they don't ever shut their cell phones off, because it is literally their only way to communicate.
So cell phone etiquette basically does not exist in China. If you get a call you take it, whether your grandma is on her death bed and you are holding her hand or it's in the middle of your granddaughter saying a family prayer.
As for me, I hate cell phones ringing in the middle of anything. In fact the new ring tones, most of them with some classic song recorded into them, are even more annoying. Most of the time I set my cell phone for the "etiquette" mode which means it buzzes instead of ringing. That means when I am in a meeting or a crowd I can ignore it if I want. I wish more people would do that.
But let's get back to voice mail. According to the article about cell phones the Chinese hate voice mail too. It seems that the attitude is that anyone of any importance would have someone answering their phone for them. So many who have to telephone lower ranking people in their company (or in the country for that matter) do not want to just leave a message because it is apparently beneath them.
The Wall Street Journal article said it is basically a "cultural gap." In the U.S. it seems the cultural gap exists between those that are connected and those that aren't.
I remember a number of years ago I saw a half hour science fiction show on television where a guy was connected in every way, with five phones, one of which was with him all the time. It was produced before cell phone technology became all the rage. He kept talking about getting away from the technology so he could be left alone, but his cohorts kept acting like he was crazy to want to do that.
Eventually he disconnected all the phones in his office and on his person and it was totally quiet. It was night time and he was loving it when the police came in and arrested him for being "disconnected."
So keep that cell phone on and that voice mail working. You never know when the law might change in the middle of the night and the technology police show up at your front door.

I don't have a computer background, but I designed a website that is being built in PHP and I am running into several issues with the programmer. The site is fairly complex with three user types (buyers, sellers, and reps) and several functions for each one, site replication for reps and downline/commissions tracking for 5 levels of Multi-Level Marketing, posts/blogs with media and attachments similar to Facebook, email and SMS notifications, back-end management, admin, and more.
The challenges I am facing:
- the site has been under construction for over a year when I was told it would be completed within two months...it should be completed asap
- almost every time the programmer updates some functions on the site, some other functions seem to fail (not always seemingly related)
- the programmer is non English-speaking...the product is not being delivered in correct English, and the language barrier makes a lot of the work take much longer than necessary
I am wondering if it would make more sense for someone to take over the project, address the unfinished items, and make what has been created already function properly without constant malfunctions, or start over and rebuild from scratch.
Any words of wisdom or solutions would be appreciated, I am willing to pay market rate or other reasonable consideration for work done.

Fredericktown ahead of the game' when it comes to waterways
FREDERICKTOWN Fredericktown had a head start on efforts to refocus attention on the Monongahela River when conservationists came calling last year while searching for towns willing to make better use of the waterway to rebuild their economies.
Local leaders had already formed the Maxwell Basin Recreation Area to hold events to draw visitors off a major highway that bypasses Fredericktown and Millsboro about a year before the Pennsylvania Environmental Council decided to expand its River Town Program, said Fredericktown businessman Dennis Slagle.
We were ahead of the game, Slagle said Friday, a day before Three Rivers Dock Dogs would hold a weekend of competitions at a local marina.
We have more to work with, he said.
Fredericktown is further along in terms of holding festivals than the five other towns in Washington, Fayette and Greene counties that signed onto the program, said Lindsay Baxter, a council project manager.
Its an interesting town because so many people go there to the marinas, but not so many of them were taking advantage of the (other) businesses, Baxter said.
That has improved, Slagle said, because the Mon River Towns program is working.
Its been a good summer, said Mike Starkey, meat manager at Fredericktown Butcher Shop along Route 88 at the gateway to a string of marinas along Ten Mile Creek, which spills into the Mon.
Its the boaters, most definitely, Starkey said.
Morgan Boyle, co-owner of Greene Cove Yacht Club along Ten Mile in nearby Jefferson Township, said he can tell business has grown by the number of different faces hes been seeing at the marina with 230 boat slips.
Its good for the area, Boyle said of the River Towns program.
Funded by the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation of Pittsburgh, the program was launched a few years ago among several communities along the Allegheny River. The second generation was begun in February 2011 along Pennsylvanias upper Mon Valley, Baxter said.
She said River Towns focuses on helping communities recognize the rivers are assets that need to be protected.
Its part of their economy, way of life, she said.
The project begins with forming a business action team to take a walk through each town and look at everything with a fresh set of eyes, Baxter said.
The short-term goals include improving the landscape and then the team works on adding road signs to connect the towns. A new $200,000 grant will be used for business facade improvements that require a financial contribution from the building owners.
The other Washington County town in the program, California, is working to create a river trail as railroad tracks hug the riverbank there, Baxter said. Rices Landing and Greensboro have signed onto the program in Greene County and Brownsville and Point Marion are the Fayette County members.
Another indication that business has improved in the Fredericktown area is construction of a new Dollar General store near the marinas, said Slagle, owner of Beegraphix, a creative apparel company.
The atmosphere in the area is better than its ever been, he said.
The Three Rivers Dock Dogs event, which involves measuring the distance dogs can jump into the water, will be held at Greene Cove from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. For more information on local events, visit www.maxwellbasin.com.

Stiebel Eltron CNS 240 E Wall-Mounted Convection Heater
Model: CNS 240 E | Internet/Cat: 843765 | Store SKU: 1000720866
CNS-E wall-mounted convection heaters are a modern heater with a sleek European slim-line design. An effective, efficient replacement for traditional baseboard heaters, CNS-E heaters accomplish the same heating task using significantly less room. CNS-E heaters have no fan. They work though natural convection, ensuring draft-free operation. Cool room air flows in the bottom of the unit, is warmed by the heating element, and rises silently out the top to heat the room. With its built-in thermostat, a single CNS-E is perfect as a stand-alone heating system in bathrooms or small rooms. Multiple CNS-E units can be placed strategically in larger spaces and their temperature settings adjusted individually for maximum comfort. If used to replace an existing heater with a separate wall-mounted thermostat control, CNS-E heaters may be wired to use that control. The CNS-E is designed with a frost protection setting. The lowest thermostat setting maintains the room above freezing temperatures.
- Attractive surface-mounted design makes for easy, flexible installation for new construction or as a space-saving alternative for existing baseboard heaters
- Built in thermostat with selectable temperature range from 41°F 86°F
- Works with existing wall-mounted thermostat
- Draft-free, silent operation
- Overheat protection is built into the unit
- Frost protection setting

Brothers' confidence leads to success in big league debut

Requires Adobe Flash
Rex Brothers
Tuesday, June 07, 2011
By Troy E. Renck, special to LipscombSports.com
SAN DIEGO -- The thoughts racing through Rex Brothers' mind explained why. There he was Monday night standing in the visiting bullpen at Petco Park in San Diego just two years after the Rockies drafted him out of Lipscomb University.
By all accounts pterodactyls should have been fluttering in his stomach. But as he as done so many times in his athletic career, Brothers found comfort in the moment.
"I over-amped my self-confidence. It's something I have been doing since college, really. It helps me get that edge mentally," said Brothers, talking quickly, proudly in the clubhouse after the Rockies' 3-0 win. "I get beyond where my confidence would normally be. I want to make sure that I want to believe 100 percent that things will turn out good."
Brothers wasn't perfect but he offered glimpses of the talent that has made him arguably the most hyped reliever in the Rockies' 19-year history. His first pitch to the San Diego Padres' Aaron Cunningham – a fastball – hit 96 miles per on the stadium radar gun. Brothers showed off an 84-mph slider in the same at-bat.
His father, brother, college roommate and a member of the Lipscomb athletic department were in attendance.
"It makes even more special," said Brothers, who received a game ball as a keepsake.
Manager Jim Tracy spoke of Brothers before the game like a little boy anxious to open the biggest gift under the Christmas tree. The scouting reports were glowing in the weeks before Brothers was called up. Brothers struck out reigning American League MVP Josh Hamilton on a rehab assignment and faced Tracy's son in Round Rock, Texas. Hamilton was shocked that Brothers wasn't in the big leagues, wondering who the Rockies had who could be better.
"The kid looked pretty good out there, didn't he?'' Tracy said of Brothers' debut. "We wanted to ease him in, but this situation made sense. He handled it well."
Rockies' fans have been clamoring for Brothers to join the bullpen since Franklin Morales began slumping in April. Brothers' debut was successful given his command and overpowering stuff. In other words, he didn't walk anyone, a problem that led to Morales' exit.
After Cunningham singled to left field, Brothers didn't flinch. He jammed Alberto Gonzalez with a fastball, leading to a weak groundball to second baseman Chris Nelson for a double play. A clean inning escaped Brothers because of a tough luck hit. Pinch-hitter Logan Forsythe nearly broke his bat, dribbling a 97-mph fastball toward third base.
Brothers pounced off the mound, but couldn't make the play, leaving Forsythe to reach and Brothers to exit. History recorded Brother's debut as scoreless when teammate Matt Belisle struck out Jason Bartlett.
"To be honest with you, I had to put the emotions in the back seat because I was going into a 1-0 nothing game. Don't get me wrong, there were some nerves there," Brothers said. "But I had to really dial in. We were trying to win a game. I just wish I would have made the play on that ball. I thought I had it."
Confidence has never been a problem with Brothers. He has a name straight out of Central Casting and pitches like he's starring in a black-and-white movie. There's no stammering around the mound or shaking off the catcher's signs. Brothers fires down the sawdust and goes right after hitters.
"As his teammate in (Triple-A) Colorado Springs, you could see that every day," said Rockies' reliever Matt Daley. "It's a really hard place to pitch. Except for Rex. He just struck everybody out."
Brothers' dominance was striking. He struck out 45 batters in 28 innings. After the ineffective Morales was traded to the Boston Red Sox, it was only a matter of time before the Rockies promoted Brothers. They wanted to him face adversity in Triple-A before bringing him up. The decision came last weekend, leading to several late-night calls.
"I think we woke up half the county after we got the news. But nobody had a problem with it," Brothers' dad Andy said with a smile.
Brothers' ability to iron out the few wrinkles in Triple-A didn't surprise Rockies' pitching coach Bob Apodaca. It only cemented the opinion he formed of the 23-year-old Brothers during spring training.
"What he showed then led us to believe he was on the cusp. I don't even want to go into the kind of stuff he possesses. That's obvious. It's a matter of maturity. And he seemed every bit mature," said Apodaca, the longest-tenured pitching coach in Rockies' history. "You could see how he reacted. There was no big eyeball or deer in a headlights look. Is he completely polished? No. But what he possesses allows him to escape some of those mistakes right now."
Fastball command is critical for Brothers. He knows he won't get the same wild swings he saw in Triple-A as he faces more disciplined hitters. Going forward Tracy will continue to use Brothers in late innings against both righties and lefties. There have already been whispers that he could develop into a big league closer.
"With Matt Reynolds (in the bullpen) doing what he's doing and if Rex evolves like we think he can, we could have the best left-handed dynamic in baseball," Tracy said. "The potential is there. We are looking forward to watching how this plays out with Rex."

MASSENA - The Twisted Turtle, which opened its doors in Potsdam 14 months ago, now has a second location in the St. Lawrence Centre in Massena, giving mall shoppers another place to look while trying to find the perfect holiday gift for themselves or someone they love.
With Hallmark going out of business, besides The Mustard Tin and Memory Lane, there arent really a lot of other gift stores at the mall, according to store owner Jessika T. Furnace, who added the lack of gift stores heading into the holiday season led her to open the second location.
The product that we are selling is completely different from anything in this area, she said.
The store sells dresses and other apparel, as well as signs, picture frames, home decor, scented wax bowls and other unique gift items.
Scented wax bowls, which according to a sign next to the stores display are a safe alternative to candles, are exactly what they say they are, a bowl made out of scented wax that is designed to fill a room with fragrance without an open flame.
Ms. Furnace said the stores first official day of business at the mall was Black Friday.
It was great. It was very busy, she said.
The St. Lawrence Centre location gave her the opportunity to introduce The Twisted Turtle to people from Franklin County, Canada and the northern portion of St. Lawrence County.
We do a lot of advertising on Facebook, so there were a lot of people from the Massena, Malone and Brasher area who have seen us there but havent been to the Potsdam store, she said. Canadians dont usually come to Potsdam (to shop).
While the Massena location was originally opened as a seasonal shop, there is a chance St. Lawrence Centre could end up a permanent home for the Twisted Turtle.
Its seasonal for right now, she said. Well have a decision to make about whether or not to make the Massena location permanent. Well see how the next month goes and what our customers want.
The Twisted Turtle is open during regular mall hours now through Dec. 31.
The Twisted Turtle can be found on Facebook by searching for Twisted Turtle Potsdam.

I saw his stats today on the home page and decided look him up since he was a promising prospect in 2010 but someone I have not really heard about since then.
In June he has hit 3 homeruns in 20 at bats to go with a 550 average. He has 6 homeruns on the year, after hitting 0 in his first 300+ professional at-bats. He's hitting fewer ground balls, which is a good sign. After finishing 2011 with more walks 49, than strikeouts 47, someone looks to be telling him to take a more aggressive approach, or maybe its something he's doing on his own?
Either way its good to see him succeeding a little bit even with such a small sample. Keep it up and win the June award.
Oh and get him off 3rd, he does not look like he can play there. He should have the arm for RF. I wish I could split his offensive stats based on where he played position wise to see if his defensive struggles were messing with his head. Maybe I can check a few boxscores for June.

P-H 0, M-W 0: It was just another Madrid-Waddington vs. Parishville-Hopkinton East Division rivalry. It was intense.

Gagnon.

15 U.S. Code § 1691d - Applicability of other laws
(a) Requests for signature of husband and wife for creation of valid lien, etc.
A request for the signature of both parties to a marriage for the purpose of creating a valid lien, passing clear title, waiving inchoate rights to property, or assigning earnings, shall not constitute discrimination under this subchapter: Provided, however, That this provision shall not be construed to permit a creditor to take sex or marital status into account in connection with the evaluation of creditworthiness of any applicant.
(b) State property laws affecting creditworthiness
Consideration or application of State property laws directly or indirectly affecting creditworthiness shall not constitute discrimination for purposes of this subchapter.
(c) State laws prohibiting separate extension of consumer credit to husband and wife
Any provision of State law which prohibits the separate extension of consumer credit to each party to a marriage shall not apply in any case where each party to a marriage voluntarily applies for separate credit from the same creditor: Provided, That in any case where such a State law is so preempted, each party to the marriage shall be solely responsible for the debt so contracted.
(d) Combining credit accounts of husband and wife with same creditor to determine permissible finance charges or loan ceilings under Federal or State laws
When each party to a marriage separately and voluntarily applies for and obtains separate credit accounts with the same creditor, those accounts shall not be aggregated or otherwise combined for purposes of determining permissible finance charges or permissible loan ceilings under the laws of any State or of the United States.
(e) Election of remedies under subchapter or State law; nature of relief determining applicability
Where the same act or omission constitutes a violation of this subchapter and of applicable State law, a person aggrieved by such conduct may bring a legal action to recover monetary damages either under this subchapter or under such State law, but not both. This election of remedies shall not apply to court actions in which the relief sought does not include monetary damages or to administrative actions.
(f) Compliance with inconsistent State laws; determination of inconsistency
This subchapter does not annul, alter, or affect, or exempt any person subject to the provisions of this subchapter from complying with, the laws of any State with respect to credit discrimination, except to the extent that those laws are inconsistent with any provision of this subchapter, and then only to the extent of the inconsistency. The Bureau is authorized to determine whether such inconsistencies exist. The Bureau may not determine that any State law is inconsistent with any provision of this subchapter if the Bureau determines that such law gives greater protection to the applicant.
(g) Exemption by regulation of credit transactions covered by State law; failure to comply with State law
The Bureau shall by regulation exempt from the requirements of sections 1691 and 1691a of this title any class of credit transactions within any State if it determines that under the law of that State that class of transactions is subject to requirements substantially similar to those imposed under this subchapter or that such law gives greater protection to the applicant, and that there is adequate provision for enforcement. Failure to comply with any requirement of such State law in any transaction so exempted shall constitute a violation of this subchapter for the purposes of section 1691e of this title.

The Northern New York Community Foundation again may examine restructuring how it awards grants, but this time it wont necessarily be going back to fundamental basics.
Executive Director Rande S. Richardson said the boards recent approval of a $10,000 grant to Cornell Cooperative Extension of Jefferson County may be an indication of how other projects could be funded in the future. The grant will be used to support the extensions Adopting Healthy Habits initiative, with a primary focus of addressing childhood obesity.
This would likely be one thing wed identify as a strategic priority for the foundation, Mr. Richardson said. As time goes on, the Community Foundation will have to be more strategic in its grant making. This gives us an opportunity to begin that process with a lead organization doing an initial screening for us.
According to a Community Foundation news release, the $10,000 will fund several mini-grants to be awarded to various local agencies and schools that design programs to help promote healthy lifestyles. A call to an extension representative seeking comment was not returned.
Mr. Richardson said that structure could be used as a model for other organizations.
The board also approved the following grants during its quarterly board meeting Tuesday:
n $17,000 to the Orchestra of Northern New York, Potsdam, to fund a minimum of four concerts as part of its 2013-14 Watertown season, and to help market itself throughout Jefferson County.
n $15,000 to the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Syracuse, as a matching grant to complete fundraising for the Thousand Islands Biological Research Station on Governors Island near Clayton. The grant was made possible, in part, through the Grace L. Reinman Fund for Clayton and the Alex Velto Community Fund.
n $12,500 to the St. Lawrence Power and Equipment Museum, Madrid, as matching funds to assist the agency in its campaign to establish an endowment fund at the Community Foundation.
n $10,000 to the Henderson Historical Society, to be used toward the completion of its campaign to construct a boat annex adjacent to its museum, which preserves and displays collections featuring the boating heritage of Henderson.
n $10,000 to New Beginnings Clothing & Food Outreach Inc., Madrid, to help complete the construction of a new thrift store and food pantry.
n $5,000 to the town of Lowville to complete repairs to a retaining wall at Old Lowville Cemetery. The grant is funded trough the George R. Davis Fund for Lowville.
n $5,000 to Community Performance Series, Potsdam, toward its summer musical series.
n $5,000 to North Country Arts Council, Watertown, in support of the annual Independence Day concert and fireworks at Thompson Park.
n $5,000 to Trinity Concert series, to help fund its 2013-14 season.
n $4,800 to St. Lawrence County NYSARC, Canton, to be used as startup funds for a pilot program, Freedom Reins, an equine therapy program for people with developmental disabilities.
n $3,000 to Double Play Sports Community Center, Lowville, to support its summer enrichment program. The grant is funded through the George R. Davis Fund for Lowville.
n $2,500 to the city of Watertown, for tree planting throughout the city. The grant is funded through the Carolyn Whitney Fund.
n $1,123 to the Lowville Food Pantry for the purchase of new shelving. The grant is funded through the George R. Davis Fund for Lowville.
n $1,000 to the Northern Choral Society, to help fund its annual holiday concert.
n $1,000 to Sackets Harbor Vocal Ensemble, to help fund its annual concert.
n $600 to Arts Community of Lewis County, to purchase new easels and lighting. The grant is funded through the George R. Davis Fund for Lowville.
Mr. Richardson said many arts organizations received support from the Community Foundation because there are few local funding sources to help carry out their projects and programs. He said they add to our communitys quality of life.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
A few years before my father passed away in 2006 I was driving down the street with him in Salt Lake, taking him to lunch.
"Where the hell do all these people come from in the middle of the day?" he asked me as he surveyed the traffic with his near 90 year old eyes. "Don't any of them have jobs?"
I kind of smiled about that comment. It made sense to him; he had worked on our farm all his life and seldom left it during the day except to do some kind of business. And I am sure when he was my age in the 1960s the traffic patterns were much different during the day than they were when he asked me that question.
"Well Dad," I said. "A lot of people have jobs that take them from place to place so they have to drive. Also there are people that work nights so they are out during the day, some may be on vacation from their work, some have jobs where they work flexible hours and then there are others that don't work at all."
"How would you get by in this world without working?" he asked me.
"Well some people just have money," I said. "Others, I suppose can live off others."
He just sat there. And then he spoke.
"Well it just isn't right all these people out in the middle of the day," he said. "It just isn't right."
Ever since then I have thought about his reaction. At the time, I thought it was kind of funny. He came from a background where if you weren't working with your hands you may not have really been working at all. And the only way to work with your hands would be to be at the workplace.
But since then I have been thinking and maybe he had something there. Where do all these people come from that are driving around at 10 a.m. in the morning when the roads are full of cars?
It seems our society has a kind of mental double standard about work and work time. Let me give you some instances I have seen concerning what people think about other people working.
Listen to the Salt Lake televisions stations and you can hear it a lot. Let's take a line from a Tuesday night weather forecast for instance.
"Going to be in the 60s tomorrow so you should go out golfing for 18 holes. But you better take jacket, just to be sure," says a weather person.
Like my dad, I am wondering beside the rich and those that are retired, who the hell has time to play 18 holes on a work day?
You can hear the same thing from the same people when there is fresh powder at the ski resorts.
"The sky is clearing and there is 10 inches of new powder at Alta," they say. "You all need to go up and ski tomorrow."
I keep wondering if the weatherman will give a note that I can give to my boss to excuse me from work to go skiing.
I also get irked about so called holidays. People on television often talk about the three day weekends that people can take.
"They are going to have a big St. Patricks Day celebration in downtown Corrinne this weekend and it will run Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Come on down here on Friday and see it."
Like every Friday is a holiday we can take off work.
Then there are holidays like Columbus Day. Federal employees are off work, but who else?
The other thing that has happened to our society is that the public schools have built in so many holidays and days off for kids, it seems many of them have a hard time adapting when they have to move into the world of work. And that is particularly true in jobs where working on almost all holidays is a requirement.
Over the years when I have worked both in education and in other government jobs. I also have had a lot of time in private business as well. After 12 years of public education, and four years of higher education, many youngsters just want to stay on their school schedules. They want every holiday off, and a lot of time in the summer. They want to be able to play hooky from work when they want to go skiing or snowboarding and they also want a spring break.
Well in private business you have to earn it. Seldom does an employer let you off to go skiing in the middle of the week unless you have been there for some time and have earned the time off, and it works for the business. In retail and other businesses holidays are the busiest days, so you may need to work while your family eats watermelon in the park on July 4.
In the news business, when something happens, it happens. You go out and cover it. I have had family birthday parties on a Sunday afternoon interrupted because someone ran off the road in Price Canyon. One time my sister was visiting from Texas and I was off of work to visit with her when a fire blew up in Willow Creek Canyon. I went because at the time no one else could.
Leisure time is important in our society. We all need it. We keep being told we worker harder and longer than the Europeans and many other cultures. Then in the next breath they lay on the guilt and say we don't work as hard or as long as the Japanese.
Maybe I have just worked for too many years to change my ways. Maybe I should get more laid back and less intense about working. But from the time I was small all I saw was my father toiling away, six days a week and then for at least six hours on Sunday, milking cows on our dairy farm. I think it is inbred.
When (or more likely if) I retire will I be like my dad and wonder why there is so much traffic "when people should be working."
Some describe Utopia as a place where no one has to work. To me, Utopia is a place where everyone works their fair share, and then gets time off.
Seems simple and fair to me.

The Age of Doubt by Andrea Camilleri
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This episode of the Inspector Montalbano series takes up where The Potters Field left off. The inspector is feeling older than his age and as with most men at this age, is beginning to feel like he has lost control of his life, his destiny and his career. The investigation into a mysterious woman who disappears from the scene as quickly as she had appeared turns into an investigation of two dodgy boats, both having appeared in the port of Vigata much too simultaneously for a coincidence.
The ensuing adventures of the inspector with the wounded ego and the appearance of a gorgeous young lieutenant from the harbor office provides the personal turmoil inside the inspector, and it serves as the vehicle for Camilleri to examine the evolution of the inspector.
The book carries along as most Inspector Montalbano mysteries does, with great humor, a nice does of Sicilian culture and cynicism as well as descriptions of food and a clever crime story.
This episode continues the melancholy overtones of the previous book and extends the conversation of the personal hell of finding one's self aging too rapidly and the helplessness and the resulting comedy that goes with it.
I think this last few books has revived Camilleri's writing and has made the series more interesting, to him and also to the fortunate us.
Inspector Montelbano is feeling his age and finds himself entranced by Lieutenant Belladonna in this new addition to a series set in Sicily. All of the books in this series are very good reading and the descriptions of the food the Inspector eats are icing on the cake.
The latest from Andrea Camilleri, who is always a joy to read. In this, the arrival of a yacht in the harbour with a dead body in tow engages Montalbano's curiosity, it stirred further by the parallel appearance of a woman who may not be all she appears. And then of course our famed police Inspector meets Coast Guard official Laura, and 'besotted' only just begins to describe the effect on him! But what of long time girlfriend Livia?? Therein for me is the only weakness of this book - not enough of Livia. But plenty of Sicilian cuisine and plenty of humour and intrigue to grab your interest. May Camilleri live and write forever, this I read in less than three days such was my joy in reading it.
Montalbano tiene que resolver el misterioso asesinato de un hombre que aparece muerto en una barca en el puerto. La investigacion esta relacionada con un yate de recreo que acaba de llegar al puerto. El detective tiene la oportunidad de conocer a varias mujeres interesantes que consiguen sorprerderlo. Una novela facil de leer y bastante amena.
Salvo Montalbano is now 58 years old and beginning to wonder if he's going to live to be 59. Bones creak, he forgets things, and his wonderfully irascible personality is becoming even more crusty. In this 14th episode of Camilleri's amusing, entertaining and well-written series about crime in Sicily, Salvo finds himself totally head over heels enamored (he would never admit to LOVE!!!) of a young naval lieutenant as they work together to solve the murder of a washed up body. In addition, there's a huge and luxurious pleasure yacht tied up at the town pier with an elegant and notoriously promiscuous owner aboard and Montalbano smells a rat. The crime solving evolves with the usual antics from Fazzio, Catarella, Mimi Auguello, and the gang. Several times, the Inspector even takes exceptional risks that appear somewhat out of character. His temper often gets the better of him, and he's not having much luck with the famous Sicilian cuisine either.
The missing link in this one is Livia. Although by now, readers of the series are becoming used to her cameo appearances by phone from Genoa, they are few and far between in this one. Salvo spends a lot of time and energy on his new infatuation, and Livia looks like she's going to get short shrift.
NO SPOILERS......you'll have to read this one on your own. Like all the books in this series, it is a quick enjoyable, well-crafted mystery with a carefully developed cast of characters, a heavenly setting, and plots that keep us guessing. The translations by Steven Sartarelli are spot on, evoking all the passion and nuance of the original Italian. The audios of this series are incredibly fun listening. I've gotten through many a water-aerobics session painlessly because I had these enjoyable stories to accompany me.

One night, Inspector Montalbano dreams of a stormy sea, which he knows represents unease and loss of control. The next day, a boat is found in the port of Vigata, and within it, the body of a disfigured corpse. The waterfront has also drawn in an eighty-five-foot luxury boat passengered by fifty carefree souls and a somewhat shadowy crew. They will have to stay in Vigata until the investigation is over--the man, it seems, was poisoned. However, right now, it is the yacht's owner and sailors Montalbano is focused on.… (more)

Seton Hall Edges Softball 1-0 to Take Series Finale
OMAHA, Neb. – Creighton softball senior pitcher Becca Changstrom allowed just one unearned run on one hit to host Seton Hall on Sunday but the Pirates gave up just two hits to the Jays in a pitchers' duel as SHU edged CU 1-0 at Mike Sheppard Sr. Field.
Creighton (25-16, 6-5 BIG EAST) could not get its offense going in the game with just a pair of singles from senior Ellen Homan and freshman Jen Daro. In the circle, Changstrom maintained her solid numbers this year giving up just a run on two hits while striking out seven Pirates to eclipse 200 K's for the second straight season at 204.
Seton Hall (11-26, 5-4 BIG EAST) held Creighton off of the scoreboard for the first time since the Bluejays were shut out at No. 21 Tulsa on Feb. 28. SHU made the most of its one hit and a Creighton error to open the bottom of the third inning to score the game's lone run.
That third inning proved to be the difference in the game as SHU opened with a single to third base followed by a CU error on a sacrifice bunt that put runners at the corners with no outs. The Pirates then sent the runner home to score on a fielder's choice with one out to gain the 1-0 lead.
Changstrom dropped to 14-9 overall with the setback.
The Jays host BIG EAST leader DePaul next weekend in Omaha. Because of the Easter holiday, the series begins with a doubleheader on Friday at noon CT and a single game on Saturday at 11 a.m.

Art in the Age of Videogames
Video and computer game technologies have opened up new possibilities for artistic creation, distribution, and appreciation. In addition to projects that might conventionally be described as Internet Art, Digital Art or New Media Art, there is now a wide spectrum of work by practitioners that crosses the boundaries between various disciplines and practices. The common denominator is that all these practitioners use digital games as their tools or source of inspiration to make art. They are called Game Artists.
GameScenes explores the rapidly expanding world of Game Art in the works of over 30 international artists. Included are several milestones in this field, as well as some lesser known works. In addition to the editors' critical texts, the book contains contributions from a variety of international scholars that illustrate, explain, and contextualize the various artifacts.
ARTISTS: AES+F, Cory Arcangel, Aram Bartholl, Dave Beck, Tobias Bernstrup, Nick Bertke, John Paul Bichard, Marco Cadioli, Mauro Ceolin, Brody Condon, Joseph DeLappe, Delire (Julian Oliver), Todd Deutsch, Micah Ganske, Beate Geissler − Oliver Sann, Brent Gustafson, Jon Haddock, Margarete Jahrmann − Max Moswitzer, JODI, Joan Leandre, Miltos Manetas, Alison Mealey, Mark McCarthy, Shusha Niederberger, Nullpointer (Tom Betts), Nullsleep (Jeremiah Johnson), Totto Renna, RSG (feat.

An ordinary building
On the night of September the 20th 2006 a sign appeared on a building in the center of Viterbo, an ancient city in central Italy, not far from Rome. Apparently put by the City Council it has already caused quite a stir. The sign is in fact an art piece by controversial artist duo Eva and Franco Mattes (aka 0100101110101101.ORG). Looking as official as any other street sign, it reads:
An Ordinary Building
This building was designed by an unknown architect in an irrelevant epoch and never belonged to an important person. The complex does not show any original architectural solutions, nor does it conserve any important works of art within. No memory is kept of any significant historical events occurring on this site. No known personality was born, lived or died here, nor is any excellent artist or sublime poet still working here.
Hundreds of unaware passersby have been staring at the sign: "It's brilliant!" comments an elderly woman "But I have no idea how to interpret it". While an outraged citizen living nearby comments "This is just unacceptable, look around, there are buildings much worse than this one, especially in the suburbs".
When asked to give an explanation of the sign, Franco Mattes, currently in New York, declared "It means what it says".
Italian curator Claudio Zecchi, who commissioned the work, comments: "This piece has a strong provocative nature like all their previous ones. The ideal stage for their art is not the official places where artworks get recognition and celebration like galleries and museums, but the city itself. It is only there that they can obtain the most genuine reaction".
The artists plan to leave the sign on the building until mid October, but whether or not the City ...

A new net art commission by YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES launches at Tate Online on 6 October 2006 (www.tate.org.uk/netart). Called 'THE ART OF SLEEP', the work explores the international art market, while its launch coincides with the latest Frieze Art Fair in London. YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES are Young-Hae Chang, a Korean woman, and Marc Voge, an American man, who live and work in Seoul. Their work is Flash based and employs a mix of animated typography, jazzy music and humour.
The artists were also invited to participate in an interview about their practice to accompany the Tate commission. In place of the standard video interview now found at Tate Online, YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES chose to create a second Flash piece called 'THE ART OF SILENCE', 2006, based on a selection of the questions supplied.
An interpretive essay by Mark Tribe entitled 'An Ornithology of Net Art' accompanies the commission. Mark Tribe, an artist and curator, is Assistant Professor of Modern Culture and Media Studies at Brown University. He founded Rhizome.org, and is the author of 'New Media Art' (Taschen, 2006).
