Haunting Dreams and Sinister Echoes
POSTED BY Guest Blogger, ON October 22, 2013, Comments Off on Haunting Dreams and Sinister Echoes
Opening just in time for everyone's favorite spooky holiday, Dreams and Echoes: Drawings and Sculpture from the David and Celia Hilliard Collection features 115 drawings, prints, and sculptures spanning five centuries. Extraordinarily generous with strong ties to the Art Institute over the years, the Hilliards have already given or promised 61 of the works on display, which bolster areas of weakness in the Art Institute's collection and develop areas of strength. The exhibition's title, Dreams and Echoes, refers to the thematic threads that weave through the collection, from the broad selection of French and British landscape drawings, to important groups by Edgar Degas, Jean-François Millet, and Odilon Redon, and a stunning array of fantastical, psychological, and macabre works from nineteenth-century Symbolist artists.
The array of charming landscape drawings that make up the beginning of the exhibition takes a turn for the sinister, dark, and stormy in George Romney's A Foregathering of Witches, a Scene from "Macbeth" (above). Two figures whirl around a bonfire, casting their dark magics. The drawing illustrates a moment in Act 4, scene 1 of Macbeth, where the witches rattle off their revolting recipe. Romney's swirling brush strokes throughout the drawing evoke the frenzy of the witchcraft and invokes the fear of the unknown.
1 WITCH. Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.—
Macbeth, Act 4 Scene 1
The eldritch and eerie theme continues into the spectacular works of Odilon Redon, James Ensor, and Jan Toorop. European Symbolist artists were fascinated with sex and sexuality, life and death, spirituality and myth. Their works are populated by figures ranging from delicate, virginal women to femme fatales, masked beings, and skeletal harbingers of death—in other words, zombies.
The two figures in the opening work by William Degouve de Nuncques, The Servants of Death would not be especially out of place in any of today's zombie movies, despite being put to paper in 1894. These shambling servants are busy sawing planks over a grave-like hole in the ground, the purpose of which is unknown—but with a title like The Servants of Death and complexions like theirs it can't bode well for anyone. The dying embers of the fire and the blood red of the setting sun add to the sense of a turn-of-the-century Belgian horror movie about to happen.
Rounding out the collection's spectral, skeletal elements is a group of masks from Symbolist sculptors, the most recently acquired of which is the skull-like Mask of Death. Presiding over a case of masks with a grin, the Mask of Death by Jules Desbois, seems to shift from benevolent to malignant with a step to either direction. The sunken, decaying features and moldering colors of the ceramic glazes stir up the sensation that this is a head that until recently resided somewhere below ground—possibly excavated from the zombies' hole. Unlike the crowned skull of the nearby bronze sculpture Nothing!! (Rien!!) by Jean-Baptiste Clésinger, the Mask of Death still appears to have skin and flesh, though it's not necessarily an improvement.
Dreams and Echoes opened to the public last weekend and runs until February 16. The accompanying catalogue is available in the Museum Shop, so you can gaze upon the Mask of Death or call up your own Foregathering of Witches, whenever you like.

Naked or Nude?
POSTED BY Suzanne K.S., ON June 26, 2013, Comments Off on Naked or Nude?
How many artfully-draped centaurs, bacchantes, and nymphs does it take to make a dirty magazine? Only one early 20th-century periodical has the answer: The Aesthetic Nude (Le Nu Esthétique), an amazing period piece culled from the Ryerson and Burnham Libraries for the Department of Prints and Drawings's Undressed: The Fashion of Privacy.
Illustrated entirely with unclothed models enacting quasi-mythological imagery, the covers alone range from a rapturous Leda and the Swan to a centaur's semi-consensual abduction of a nymph. Inside each issue appear even more views of studio models in increasingly far-fetched poses, all of which were ostensibly meant to supplant the live model in studio practice.
It's not clear that anyone ever copied these compositions in paint, but the effort that went into cutting out the photos in lively shapes, and the publication's run of several years (c. 1902-06), suggests a market existed for it!
These 'aesthetic nudes' beg the question of what constituted nudity, as opposed to nakedness in the late 19th and early 20th century. Was it simply the academic and mythological guise that made these images acceptable, even collectible?
In Undressed's adults-only Prostitution gallery (127A), less is definitely more. In fact prices increased inversely to the amount of clothing removed by skilled Parisian courtesans in the 19th century! While those often-raucous images must be experienced in person, the nearby gallery with the Aesthetic Nude (127B) focuses on the purer nude. Full of academic studies of (mainly) male models, this space offers a curious contrast to the scores of women caught in the act of undressing elsewhere in the exhibition. Drawing from the nude was a necessary step in artist training, for only after apprentices had mastered copying from sculpture casts and engravings could they attempt the live model. The emphasis remains on classical form; indeed, these figures are so detached from the context of clothing, the final result is hardly provocative. Even discounting the novelty of photography, these 'aesthetic nudes,' however, are something else entirely.
Undressed: The Fashion of Privacy is an exhibition of works on paper (open through September 29 in the Prints and Drawings Galleries) complementing the Art Institute's summer extravaganza, Impressionism, Fashion, & Modernity. Undressed strips the veneer of fashionable public clothing and shows European and American women and some men from the 18th into the early 20th century anywhere from a state of nature to fashionably deshabillé.

Morell Meets Homer
POSTED BY Guest Blogger, ON June 21, 2013, Comments Off on Morell Meets Homer
Abelardo Morell, whose retrospective The Universe Next Door opened June 1, has become known for making pictures that get to the heart of photography. He has turned entire rooms into cameras, employing a phenomenon that has been known since antiquity: that light entering a darkened room ("camera obscura") through a small aperture will project an image, upside-down and reversed, on the opposite surface. More recently, he has been making pictures with the tent camera, a kind of portable camera obscura he designed himself. A lens in the top of the tent projects the outside scene onto the ground—whether rocks, sand, grass, or city sidewalk—and he then photographs the combination of the two.
Morell's influences, however, are not strictly from the field of photography. In fact, he finds himself looking more to painting for models. When he was a student at Bowdoin College in Maine, he discovered Winslow Homer, the 19th-century painter who so famously depicted the New England landscape, especially the sea. One of the foremost scholars of Homer, Philip Beam, taught at Bowdoin, and Morell—who had dropped out of college but remained in town working at the university art museum—ended up photographing numerous paintings and book reproductions for the professor.
With his tent camera, Morell says he now feels more like a painter. In the Modern Wing's Bucksbaum Gallery, where the tent camera pictures are on view, you can see how gravel on a Manhattan rooftop starts looking like pointillist dots, or how cracked earth along the Rio Grande begins to mimic thick flourishes of paint. He took his tent camera to Winslow Homer's home and studio in Prouts Neck, Maine, an isolated stretch overlooking the ocean, where the painter lived and painted seascapes for much of his last 25 years. Morell positioned the tent over a patch of sandy grass and directed the periscope lens onto the sea. The resulting picture shows wisps of clouds over the ocean's horizon, rendered more abstract through the tangled mesh of plants. In an homage to an artist he admired, Morell merged the present and the past and combined painting and photography.
Take a look at this watercolor from the Art Institute's collection (above) and Morell's tent camera photograph (below):

Works of the Week: Cut it Out!
POSTED BY Suzanne K.S., ON April 26, 2013, Comments Off on Works of the Week: Cut it Out!
Kara Walker's Antebellum cutout installation at the Art Institute pushes the boundaries of what black and white silhouettes can do to combat stereotypes. Here's a look at some of the more curious nineteenth century silhouettes in the Art Institute's permanent collection that came before Walker's bold racial re-envisioning of the medium.
Silhouettes based on shadows have been called the origin of the art of painting since antiquity. By the modern era, the most popular function for the silhouette was for single or family portraits in profile, possibly due to theories that the profile and the soul were visibly connected. Valentines with silhouetted imagery and memorial cards were similarly popular. These were made from black paper cut out and adhered to a white background, or white paper laced with holes on a black background. The unknown maker of a nineteenth-century scene from an album in Prints and Drawings narrowly avoided turning their work into a full-fledged doily. Thankfully, instead, they provided the contrast of a bright blue backing to its floral image of a woman tending a funerary urn.
The overhanging tree suggests the cutter might have been German, or familiar with the German Romantic tradition of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. A prominent theme was the melancholy over premature death (as in the suicide of the lovelorn protagonist in Goethe's Sorrows of Young Werther), which became a craze.
Another album in Prints and Drawings was compiled around 1837 by the German-born Queen Adelaide of England (1792-1849), who enlisted her female friends at court to provide drawings of children, landscapes and costume balls. One of them, Elizabeth, Landgravine of Hesse-Homburg (1770-1840), was apparently English by birth, but traveled with her German husband through the Vogelsberg part of his territories. Her contribution was two black cutouts of peasants she saw working in those fields. The figures wear traditional peasant garb, but some abstracted details have become ambiguous to the modern eye.
Elizabeth has focused on several family interactions coinciding with the workday tasks. A father may be keeping a toy away from his dancing child, or perhaps shaking a tambourine for her during a rest. The children on the ground may be working the fields, or simply playing dangerously with abandoned scythes. In contrast, the child on a leash significantly predates modern apologetic attempts to tether the young. Age-old feudal attitudes seem to remain in full swing when Elizabeth described the figures below the cart as "Group I saw in the field as I visited the Vogelsberg (and) struck me as lovely." Was the main purpose of these peasants simply to form a charming tableau vivant for the entertainment of the nobility? Perhaps we should have exhibited these two cutout gems near Walker's, as they so clearly display the assumptions the aristocracy made about the picturesque workers of their farmlands!

Russian police have identified two people they believe are the suicide bombers responsible for deadly bombings in Volgograd and detained two suspected accomplices, anti-terrorism officials said Thursday, according to Russian state news agency Ria Novosti.
The National Anti-Terrorism Committee identified the suspected suicide bombers as Asker Samedov and Suleiman Magomedov. It said they belong to the Buinaksk militant group, based in the volatile southern Russian province of Dagestan, according to Ria Novosti.
The two accomplices who are detained are brothers, both from Dagestan, and they are held on suspicion of assisting the suicide bombers in traveling to Volgograd, it said.

Title: High prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in dogs in Veracruz, Mexico
Authors: Alvarado-Esquivel C, Romero-Salas D, Garcia-Vazquez Z, Cruz-Romero A, Ibarra-Priego N, Ahuja-Aguirre C, Agular-Dominguez M, Perez De Leon A, Dubey J
Journal: BMC Vet Res
Accepted date: 2014 May 28
Interpretive summary: Toxoplasma gondii an obligate, single-celled, protozoan parasite continues to be a major zoonotic health concern in human and veterinary medicine because it is capable of infecting any warm-blooded vertebrate intermediate host. As the definitive host, cats are fundamental in the epidemiology of toxoplasmosis. Millions of oocysts can be excreted in the feces of a single cat and oocysts can survive outdoors for months. Viable T. gondii has been isolated from feces of naturally infected dogs, indicating that the dog can act as a mechanical vector following the ingestion of infected cat feces. Humans can also become infected by petting dogs that have rolled in cat feces. Because of their close association with humans dogs are considered good sentinel for environmental contamination with this parasite. In the present study authors found that 67% of 101 dogs from Veracruz State, Mexico had antibodies to T. gondii, indicating a very high level of environmental contamination with t. gondii. This study should be of interest veterinarians and public health workers.

State's Drought Task Force Meets
Published on July 12 2012 10:48 am
Last Updated on July 14 2013 12:07 pm
Written by Greg Sapp
The state agencies that make up the Drought Response Task Force in Illinois met Wednesday to provide recommendations and assistance in dealing with persistent dry weather in the state. At the direction of Governor Quinn, the Task Force met to discuss the need for actions to ensure public safety and support the economic engines such as agriculture, wildlife and natural areas, as well as preserving drinking water supplies.
The Drought Response Task Force is the chaired by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, and includes experts from Illinois Department of Agriculture, Illinois State Water Survey, Illinois Department of Public Health and Illinois Emergency Management Agency. The task force will continue to report and make recommendations to Governor Quinn.
"We are seeing drought conditions throughout Illinois, and it is important to convene the state's top experts on weather, water resources and water supply management, agriculture, public health and safety in order to address the needs of communities around the state," Governor Quinn said. "The Drought Response Task Force allows us to better evaluate what we need to do to manage the impacts of drought in the coming weeks.
The Drought Response Task Force was established in response to past droughts and will meet as needed to monitor the conditions of the state's water resources and systems and coordinate the state's response to drought situations. The purpose of the task force is to assist community and state officials and to provide the public with information and tools that promote better decision-making in water supply planning and reduce drought-related impacts.
The Illinois State Water Survey reports that most of southern and central Illinois are considered in drought based on precipitation deficits of five inches or more dating back to July 2011, with deficits of eight inches or more in southeast Illinois and up to 12 inches in portions of west-central Illinois during that time. Northern Illinois is also dry, and if lack of rainfall persists could be considered in drought in the coming weeks. The ISWS adds that the precipitation deficit's impacts are even more substantial due to unseasonably warm weather, including the warmest spring on record in parts of Illinois. Updates on dry conditions can be found on the ISWS website at http://www.isws.illinois.edu/hilites/drought/.
"The full extent of drought-related crop damage is not known yet, but early assessments indicate farmers will sustain substantial yield losses, especially in southern Illinois, where much of the corn crop has been destroyed," Illinois Department of Agriculture Acting Director Bob Flider said. "I appreciate Agriculture Secretary Vilsack's efforts to simplify the disaster declaration process. They will result in the immediate declaration of 26 Illinois counties as disaster areas and make farmers in those counties eligible for low-interest emergency loans that can be used to pay not only production expenses, but also essential family living expenses."
Under new USDA rules announced Wednesday, a county automatically qualifies for a disaster designation once it is categorized by the U.S. Drought Monitor as being in a severe drought for eight or more consecutive weeks during the growing season. A formal request for the designation is no longer necessary.
The 26 counties in Illinois that immediately meet the new criteria are: Alexander, Clark, Clay, Crawford, Edwards, Franklin, Gallatin, Hamilton, Hardin, Jackson, Jasper, Jefferson, Johnson, Lawrence, Massac, Perry, Pope, Pulaski, Randolph, Richland, Saline, Union, Wabash, Wayne, White and Williamson. Additional counties almost assuredly will qualify in the coming weeks.
Farmers who believe they may be eligible for the assistance should contact their county Farm Service Agency office. Loan applications are considered on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the extent of losses, security available and applicant's repayment ability.
The activation of the Drought Response Task Force is based on a protocol set up by the Water Plan Task Force in 1984. It was activated most recently in 2005.

March 9, 2009 Reported By: Keith Shortall
There was a time in America when postcards were as popular as email or instant messaging are today. In the early part of the last century, postcards were an inexpensive way to connect, even briefly, with friends and loved ones, and in some cases share a snapshot of the sender's hometown. A collection of picture postcards from this era is on exhibit at the Maine Historical Society Museum in Portland. It's a tour of Maine downtowns at a time when the state was making the transition into modern times.
The first stop on this tour of the show called "Maine Street Maine" is a large blown-up photo of an old store filled with postcards, an inkwell, and a mailbox. "And I like to compare this to possibly an Internet café today and postcards would be like email of that time frame," says photo archivist Kevin Johnson, who says this is an image of the Miss A.L. Jackson postcard store in St. Stephen, New Brunswick. "You can see the store is filled wall-to-wall with postcards, and they have a table with an inkwell to sit down and write your postcard and drop it in the mailbox on the way out."
Such was the popularity of postcards at the time. And it's that popularity that prompted the Eastern Illustrating and Publishing Company of Belfast to travel into the far corners of Maine and take these photographs. "I think the company did a great job in preserving history, and I don't think that was their intention, but they really succeeded in doing that. Over a period of three decades, they almost did a survey of the state and the entire New England region," Johnson says.
More than 30 Maine towns are represented, from the northern farming community of Lille, to the Downeast fishing village of Stonington, to the ship-building town of Thomaston. Johnson says missing from the collection are any images of the state's larger cities--Bangor and Portland. "There were many, many postcard companies out there and Eastern saw their niche as all the small towns and villages, and they kind of steered clear of cities like Portland and Bangor, as there were so many postcard companies there, and focused on the small towns."
Keith Shortall: "So you have images of a town, rural Farmington, like Lille in northern Maine that you otherwise probably would never have been able to have."
Kevin Johnson: "It's true. And they almost had a formula. They would go into a town and they would have certain images that they just had to get. And with some towns the four corners might be the whole town, but they would photograph the post office and the city hall and whatever businesses were there, and any tourist interest sites."
Johnson works at the Penboscot Marine Museum in Searsport, which owns the collection that supplies this rare glimpse into the heart of Maine between 1910 and 1940. Steve Bromage, Assistant Director of the Maine Historical Society says the collection captures a time when small towns and cities were making the transition from gaslight to streetlight, and from horse and buggy to automobile. "So what you see here in front of the garage, and there's a general store, I believe down the street, that have all put gas pumps out in front of themselves, you know, so they're not service stations, but everybody had a piece of the action."
Bromage says the collection should be of interest to those who are, once again, interested in restoring life and function to downtowns all over the state. "I think so, and I think these images in particular, they're just of an era that's really captivating. You see the advertisements, you see new kinds of businesses, you see cars, and you can see the impact of change. You can just feel kind of modern life arriving. And so I think, you know, when people get sentimental or have those kinds of thoughts about Main Street, it's very easy to see in these photographs and kind of idealize what may have been going on."
KS: "And while, for example, in this shot of Belfast, a lot of the details of course are changed and the businesses are gone, but the buildings themselves are largely as they were."
Kevin Johnson: "It's true. You could take that same picture today and it would look very similar."
KS: "In the case of Thomaston there was a big change in the way it looked--this was in 1910, we're looking at an image that no longer looks like this at all, because of a disease."
KJ: "Dutch Elm disease. And you see that throughout the New England pictures. The downtown's greatly altered by the loss of these great trees that, in Thomaston's case, formed almost a virtual canopy over the street. And they're missed. It was a beautiful time."
Maine Street Maine, Downtown Views from the Eastern Illustrating and Publishing Company, is on exhibit at the Maine Historical Society through May. The Penobscot Marine Museum owns some 30,000 negatives from the Eastern Publishing Collection, and offers fine arts prints to help fund the project.

Types of windmills in Holland
4512 Views
Once a country of 10,000 windmills, Holland now has over 1,000 historic vertical mills, more than any other country in the world. Vertical mills come in a variety of shapes, from the post mill, hollow post mill, tower mill, and the smock mill. All of these are really a variation on the post mill, where a post stands vertically and its attached sails can be turned to face the direction of the wind. The other types of vertical windmills expand the center from a simple post to large interior spaces where the miller can live.
Where windmills are found
Of the many windmills in Holland, each type has a specific purpose: pumping water, keeping the polders (lowlands) dry, sawing wood, grinding grain, and many others. Several areas are known for their windmills, and should definitely be a part of any tour of Holland.
- Kinderdijk—This area's windmills were built to pump water between the river and the polders.
- Mills of Schiedam—These windmills are the tallest in the world. From the original twenty mills, only five have survived. In 2006, a wind turbine was built in the area and made to look like an original windmill.
- Zaanse Schans—One of the most popular tourist attractions in North Holland, Zaanse Schanse has a collection of historic houses and windmills to give people an idea of what Holland was like in earlier centuries.
- Amsterdam—the city has 8 windmills. Of these, the Molen van Sloten is a polder-draining mill, the De Otter mill is the only operating wood-sawing mill, and the De Gooyer towers over the Brouwerij 't IJ, a popular brewhouse.

Historic county captain whose identity with Trent Bridge spanned eight decades writes Peter Wynne-Thomas
BIKES and buggies. But for them I would be in a better position to describe cricket in the 20 years after the Second World War and John Clay's part in it.
Each day since 1986 I have walked from home to Trent Bridge. Once or twice a week my walk has been delightfully interrupted by John Clay, walking from his home to the centre of Bridgford. A cricketing yarn filled 10 minutes before we went our respective ways. Well, it would have done if those twin banes of a pedestrian – bell-less bicycles and childless buggies driven by mobile-phoning mothers – had not constantly disturbed the flow of conversation.
The story that gradually emerged from the bruised shins and near-death encounters with budding Olympic cyclists was of a quiet man devoted to all that is great about county cricket.
Born in West Bridgford, died in West Bridgford, always within walking distance of Trent Bridge, Clay represented Notts Public Schools on the famous Test ground before the Second World War. He was a reliable orthodox opening bat and a brilliant slip field.
War came and he served in the RAF. In 1946 he scored mightily in club cricket and the following year he joined the Nottinghamshire playing staff. But the old pros had been denied six years and, determined to make up for some of that loss, they were not going to retire early. Any aspiring youngster on the staff was looked upon with suspicion – in those days the junior players were not even allowed in the senior dressing room.
Clay flourished with the seconds but his reward was only an occasional first-team match and it was not until 1951, with Reg Simpson a Test regular, that a real opportunity came. By then another generation of young hopefuls was snapping at his heels. Clay held his place in the side, scored his 1,000 runs a season (on six occasions in all) and took his slip catches.
Traditions at Trent Bridge die slowly. Simpson retired as captain in 1961. The committee had to find an amateur to replace him. They found Andy Corran but he was still at Oxford. For the only time in the 20th century before Gentlemen became players a professional was chosen to lead the side. Yes, the man was John Clay. He scored another 1,000 runs, then quietly moved over for Corran in 1962, becoming captain and mentor of the 2nds. This was an ideal role for an ideal cricketer who always saw the best in his fellow players. In all the years of gossip with him I do not remember a malicious comment.
When his legs decided that 2nd XI cricket was too much for them he was appointed as coach and led the colts. Later he went to work for Boots, then in retirement came to watch county matches at Trent Bridge, just as he had done as a schoolboy. Despite the bikes and buggies, I shall miss our chats.
John Desmond Clay was born on October 15, 1924 and died on February 11, 2011, aged 86.

Albrecht Dürer and others, The Triumphal Arch, woodcut
Dated AD 1515
Printed from 192 individual blocks
The Triumphal Arch is one of the largest prints ever produced. It was commissioned by the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I (1459-1519). The programme was devised by the court historian and mathematician, Johann Stabius, who explains underneath that it was constructed after the model of 'the ancient triumphal arches of the Roman Emperors'.
Above the central arch, entitled 'Honour and Might', is a genealogy of Maximilian in the form of a family tree. Above the left arch, 'Praise', and the right arch, 'Nobility', are represented events from his life. These are flanked by busts of emperors and kings on the left, and a column of Maximilian's ancestors on the right. The outermost towers on either side show scenes from the private life of Maximilian.
The architect and painter Jörg Kölderer designed the overall appearance of the structure, and Dürer designed the individual scenes and architectural elements, some of which he sub-contracted to his pupils Hans Springinklee and Wolf Traut, and Albrecht Altdorfer of Regensburg.
The date 1515,
which appears on the Arch, refers to the completion of the designs;
the blocks were cut by Hieronymus Andreae of Nuremberg between 1515
and 1517. This

Worst: A Dance Contest
Vickie Guerrero announced that she used to be a stripper, then did about four seconds of lackluster booty dancing before sexually assaulting homosexual emcee Matt Striker, practically spilling the water he's spent so long packing into different parts of his body. Fans got to vote on this. "Stop trying to humiliate this widow" was not one of the options.
Even Worse: A Dance Contest Narrated by Jerry Lawler
Jerry Lawler was absolutely unforgivable with the fat jokes on Vickie last night, and the only upside is that most of his quips got neutered before the punchline, because even the announcers (who can't pick up on anything ever) know how pointless and destructive they are. "Jesus Christ, Jerry," Booker might say. "This is a 43-year old woman you work with. Maybe this is why you can't land a girlfriend over the age of 14." And then Jerry would go "woo hoo" under his breath, and we could watch the sh:tty dance contest without distraction.
Even Worse Than That: Matt Striker is Not Helping
Why are you even here? Todd Grisham gave you your Samson powers, without him you should just go back to teaching and filming CFNM videos on the side.
The Very Worst: Come On, Bro
They couldn't have let Zack Ryder stand in the ring and fist pump while Vickie did her booty dance? Not even that?

Coping in Rwanda, Burundi and Congo
Sister Redin of the Daughters of Charity Tells of Traumas
MADRID, Spain, JUNE 9, 2005 (Zenit) - Sister Sabina Iragui Redin, a Daughter of Charity, and another religious arrived together in Rwanda from Europe 32 years ago, to establish the presence of their congregation.
Today, Sister Redin is still there, in Kigali, in a land that is struggling to overcome the trauma of the genocide, as she explained in this interview with us.
Q: How did you arrive in Rwanda and Burundi?
Sister Redin: We went to live and to found our congregation there in 1973. At that time, the Daughters of Charity opened six missions in Burundi and three in Rwanda.
At first we were called by the bishops to work in the health service as nurses. We were dedicated especially to care in health centers.
Little by little, native sisters were incorporated and our services were enlarged. Between the years 1985 and 1987, the president of Burundi denied all missionaries visas to continue in the country. The sisters who were in Burundi had to leave. Many of the native sisters came with us to Rwanda and we opened two missions in the eastern Congo, in the lake district.
Q: Then the 1994 genocide came ...
Sister Redin: When it occurred, we moved to Goma, in Congo, to be able to assist the refugees. We began to work in the camps.
Some 35 sisters came together to help. Initially we organized a refugee camp with the Salesians and another one with Doctors Without Borders. The latter gave us serums and medicines to treat the sick, because we had nothing, only our arms.
Moreover, a cholera epidemic broke out. It broke out suddenly, because the bodies of the murdered were thrown into Kivu lake and people drank the water. The epidemic was terribly violent.
The French soldiers posted there brought us water, because there was no drinking water either. I remember one solider who said to us: "What work you do, sisters! What can I do, as I am doing nothing?" And he took out all the money he had with him and gave it to me. We used that money to feed the people, as it was sad to see them come from Rwanda without anything.
Later I went to work in a refugee camp in cooperation with UNICEF. It was a camp of orphaned children. There were some 5,000. They brought them from the roads and forests where they found them on top of their dead mothers. It was terrible. Then I returned to Rwanda, to Kivu, in the high mountains.
Q: And weren't you in danger there?
Sister Redin: Yes, it was also dangerous in the mountains and we had to flee by another route to Congo.
But the situation wasn't easy there either. Of our two houses in Congo, one was closed because one night they killed the parish priest of the village and the sisters had to be evacuated. And the other house, the one in Goma, also had to be closed when war broke out as well in Congo.
Then the eruption of the Yiragongo volcano took place, and the lava buried it. So that put an end to it. �
Q: How did you establish the mission after so many disasters?
Sister Redin: After 1996, in the aftermath of the genocide in Rwanda, we had a meeting to respond to the new poverties that had arisen in the country, and we put our shoulder to the wheel.
Now we are working in several areas. The first, with the street children. They are very numerous, especially the girls. Then there are the prisons, where food is taken.
Q: The prisons are packed, aren't they?
Sister Redin: And they will be much more so, because people continued to be prosecuted.
Right now there are more than 100,000 people in the prisons, but the figure might reach 700,000. We don't know who is guilty or innocent, but there are many sick with AIDS and tuberculosis.
We also concentrate on working with women. It's a country of women. Many men died, and many more are in prison. We have organized women's associations and we work with all of them without discrimination.
Meetings are held, the Gospel is read, the word of God is shared, they are helped. Land is requested so that they can cultivate it and thus help their children to study and get ahead.
The women are very courageous, and it is worthwhile helping them because they have much fortitude and go ahead with everything. We also work with the orphans, with AIDS ....
Q: "Mission: bread broken for the world" was the motto John Paul II proposed for the next World Mission Sunday.
Sister Redin: Jesus is the real bread broken for the world. Becoming poor with the poor, I try to be that bread also, and share my life and enthusiasm with the poor, in a country of real poverty and, in this way, be a reflection of the merciful love of Jesus, because love is what is most important.

Correct your vision while you sleep with safe, non-surgical therapeutic lenses, and enjoy great vision 24 hours a day, without the hassles of glasses and daytime contacts. Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) is an ideal option for people who are not a candidate for LASIK laser vision correction because they are less than 18 years old or their vision is continuing to change.
Corneal Refractive Therapy is a non-surgical process clinically developed to reshape the cornea while you sleep. The result is the temporary correction of myopia with or without moderate astigmatism. Now you can be free of daytime contact lenses or glasses and enjoy great vision during your daily activities without undergoing surgery. Recent clinical research combined with the latest corneal surface mapping technology, computerized manufacturing and space age oxygen-breathing materials have brought new science to corneal reshaping.
Similar in appearance to standard contact lenses, CRT therapeutic lenses gently reshape the corneal surface during sleep to provide clear, natural vision when the lenses are removed upon waking. Because CRT offers freedom from glasses and the hassle of wearing contact lenses during the day, this leading-edge technology can enhance the lifestyle of those requiring vision correction. Active individuals can freely participate in sports without the interference of glasses or bothersome contacts. Eye irritation and dryness, sometimes associated with contact lens wear due to outside dust and pollutants, are also eliminated.
CRT involves using a specially designed oxygen permeable therapeutic contact lens. Corneal Refractive Therapy is a sophisticated, non-surgical process, which reshapes the cornea while you sleep. You remove the lenses when you awake and are able to go throughout the day without any other correction.
Contact lens corneal reshaping utilizes recent advancements in computerized corneal mapping, computerized manufacturing, and oxygen permeable contact lens materials that produce a therapeutic contact lens design that is like no other. This has allowed CRT to become a vital corneal reshaping modality that truly stands out and the first to earn FDA approval.
No. It's temporary. If you stop wearing the lenses regularly while you sleep, your vision will return to its original state in as little as 72 hours.
Not everyone benefits from CRT. This lens is designed for individuals with low to moderate myopia (nearsightedness up to –6.00 diopters) with or without astigmatism (up to –1.75 diopters). CRT therapeutic lenses are not yet available in bifocal prescriptions for presbyopia (which requires reading glasses or bifocals). At your doctor's discretion you may be fitted in a monovision mode (one eye corrected for near vision and one corrected for distance vision). You might still need reading glasses. However, since there are variations in patient physiology and visual needs, the decision for CRT, at any age, can only be made after a thorough eye exam and the recommendations of the eye care professional. At this time, hyperopia (farsightedness) is not correctable with CRT.
Most patients have rapid improvement in the first few days of treatment and achieve nearly their optimum vision in 10 to 14 days.
It's important to understand that for a time after you have begun treatment, but before sufficient treatment is realized, your old glasses or contacts will no longer be the appropriate prescription. It may involve insertion of your CRT lenses for part of the day or some use of temporary soft lenses in different prescriptions as an option. Your Harvard Eye Associates practitioner will discuss your options for visual correction during that transitional period of time.
There is a small risk involved when any contact lens is worn. It is not expected that the CRT lenses for contact lens Corneal Refractive Therapy will provide a risk that is greater than other contact lenses. There were no serious adverse events reported in the CRT FDA clinical study.
Yes. One of the great features of the CRT lens is that if you have to get up in the middle of the night, you will be able to see where you are going. Or, if during the initial treatment phase, you find you need some form of vision correction, you can put in your CRT lenses and see clearly.
Generally speaking the CRT lenses will have to be replaced once a year. However, depending on factors such as protein build-up, how well the lenses are taken care of, etc., the lenses may have to be replaced more frequently.
Your lenses should be chemically disinfected after every use (not heat). Your Harvard Eye Associates practitioner will instruct you about which care system is best for you.
As always, Harvard Eye is first and foremost concerned about what is best for each individual patient. Call us today for your personalized consultation!

The first time an NFL playoff game went into overtime, Alan Ameche plunged into the end zone from the 1-yard line to give the Baltimore Colts the 1958 NFL championship. The last time an NFL playoff game went into overtime, the New Orleans Saints won the coin toss, drove 39 yards into field-goal range, and won the NFC Championship on Garrett Hartley's kick.
Ameche barrelling across the goal line was a much more satisfying ending to a football game than Hartley ending things while the opposing offense could only watch. And that's why the NFL has changed the rules to ensure that no future playoff game will ever end on a field goal before both teams have had a chance to possess the ball.
A few months after Hartley's kick, NFL owners voted to change the overtime rules for the postseason so that both teams have the opportunity to possess the ball at least once, unless the team that receives the kickoff scores a touchdown on its first possession. So far that rule has never been put to use, because none of last year's playoff games went to overtime. But if a playoff game this year ends the fourth quarter tied, we'll see modified sudden-death for the first time.
The reason for the modified approach is simple: In sudden-death overtime, winning the coin toss becomes a huge advantage, as the team that receives the kick knows it only has to drive into field-goal range to win the game. With the modified sudden-death format, the importance of the coin toss is lessened, and the team that wins the toss has a greater incentive to get more aggressive on offense and try to win the game with a touchdown. If the team that wins the toss kicks a field goal, that team then kicks off, and the other team has a chance to win the game with a touchdown, or to extend the game with a field goal, at which point the game would become pure sudden death, with the victory going to the next team that scores.
The best way to determine the winner when the fourth quarter ends in a tie has long been a debate in football: Some people like sudden death, others like the college format in which teams alternate possessions, and still others say the fairest way would be an auction style in which one team would choose the yard line to kick off from, and then the other team would choose whether to kick or receive.
But what no one disputes is that the modified sudden-death format is going to make things exciting for fans. Now we just need a game to end the fourth quarter tied.

Among the options the Big 12 has discussed as it ponders expansion is a merger with the Big East that would create a 16-team conference, although that's a less likely scenario than eventually settling at 10 or 12 teams.
A source close to the Big 12 told Sporting News no action will be taken on expansion until the conference receives confirmation of Missouri's commitment to the league. Indications from Mizzou have been more positive lately about remaining a Big 12 member, and a final decision is expected next week.
Meanwhile, a source close to the Big East said that league is expected to vote on offering Temple full membership in the league at its secretive presidents' meeting Sunday in Washington, along with demanding a more firm commitment from restless members Connecticut and Rutgers. The Big East lost longtime members Syracuse and Pitt to the ACC in mid-September.
UConn and Rutgers openly have discussed their eagerness to be invited to the ACC, as well, but no offer appears to be forthcoming for either, and schools that are committed to Big East membership—most notably Louisville—would like to see the current members provide the league with a clearer future.
The Big 12 source said once the Missouri issue is settled the league would like to strike a deal with either independent BYU or Big East-bound TCU as a 10th member, and that Louisville would be among the targets if expansion to 12 were to be undertaken. A 16-team league that would include the Big East's football-playing members was brought up but is unlikely to come to fruition.
Powerful Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino has openly stated his preference for the Cardinals remaining in the Big East, even going so far as to say UConn's interest in leaving for the ACC was the "dumbest thing" he's ever heard.
The Big 12 source said the hiring of former Big Eight commissioner Chuck Neinas as interim commissioner following the departure of Dan Beebe has been a boon to that league, that he has provided a sense of stability that had been missing recently.
The Big 12 officially lost Texas A&M to the Southeastern Conference this week, but Oklahoma and Oklahoma State committed to remaining in the league after the Pacific-12 decided not to expand beyond its current membership.

What if you get Social Security Disability Benefits and you move to another state?
Does it matter if you got your benefits awarded in one state say MN and you move to another say NY before a CDR takes place? Will it effect a review? Trigger a Review?
Social Security is a federal agency, so it is not a problem to move from state to state. However, it is always important for Social Security to have a valid address and phone number for you.
A move never triggers any kind of disability review. In fact, when your initial disability claim was approved a diary date was set for your review and, for most people, that is when your disability claim will be reviewed.
However, there are things that could trigger a disability review; the most common trigger is work activity. Especially, if your work activity is above the substantial gainful activity earning amount. It is very important to report all work activity to Social Security so that you do not get overpaid.
Having said that, even work activity rarely triggers more than a work review unless you are working continuously at an SGA level.
I would like to mention if you are receiving Supplemental Security Income disability (SSI), your disability may go down. The cut in benefits would not be due to Social Security, rather it would be an effect of losing a state subsidy (some states offer a little extra money if an individual is receiving SSI). For example, if you moved from New York (a state that has a subsidy) to a state that does not, you would lose the money that you receive monthly from the state.
So in answer to the question, you can move around all you like...just make sure that Social Security can locate you when your continuing disability review comes up.

The Democrats' Healthcare Conundrum (Updated)
Passing ObamaCare last year sets up epic Congressional battles this year. UPDATE: The House votes to repeal ObamaCare.
January 7, 2011 - 9:59 am
Update: The House voted today to repeal ObamaCare, 236-181.
The battle over President Barack Obama's plan to change the U.S. health care system is far from over. Getting a bill through the Congress and signed into law may have won him the first round – but the debate renews with the opening of the 112th Congress.
As several legal and constitutional challenges work their way through the federal courts system, the U.S. House of Representatives, now controlled by the Republicans, has scheduled a vote (this week) to junk the whole thing. It's likely to pass, perhaps even by a veto-proof majority if the Democrats who voted against it last year – and who are still in Congress – join with the GOP in pushing for its repeal.
This means, once again, that the action moves to the United States Senate where, it should be recalled, the original ObamaCare proposal languished for months until Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid could figure out a strategy to get it to the floor for a vote.
With the Democrats still in the majority in the Senate – albeit by a narrower margin – most political commentators expect the repeal language to die a slow, lingering death as Reid uses every parliamentary trick at his disposal to keep it from coming to the floor for a vote.
In the short run, that looks like a winning strategy. In the long run, it may hand the Senate to the Republicans in the November 2012 election. Far too many Senate Democrats occupy seats in states either carried by John McCain in 2008 or in which the GOP performed well in 2010 for them to be able to comfortably turn their backs on the health care repeal movement. Virginia's Jim Webb, Florida's Bill Nelson and Nebraska's Ben Nelson, and Missouri's Claire McCaskill are but a few of the endangered Democrats who put their re-election at risk if they ignore how deeply the American people dislike ObamaCare now that they really understand what it does.

Jose Alejandro faces up to 50 years in prison.
Sharon Hernandez
GOSHEN — An Elkhart Circuit Court jury found Jose Alejandro guilty of attempted murder Tuesday, April 23.
Alejandro, 21 of Elkhart, was arrested July 4, 2012, about a month after Flavio Contreras, then 19, was shot and severely wounded.
Alejandro faces a sentence of 50 years in prison. The prosecuting attorney is also seeking to add a criminal gang enhancement, which would double Alejandro's sentence to a maximum of 100 years in prison.
The ongoing trial is a bifurcated trial, which means it has two phases. The first phase, which started Monday and continued Tuesday, was for the jury to determine whether Alejandro was guilty of the charge of attempted murder.
The second phase will go on tomorrow, for the jury to determine whether Alejandro should receive a criminal gang enhancement.
Several witnesses testified Tuesday, adding new information about the night of May 23, when Contreras was said to have been taken from his house and shot at a different location.
Contreras was at his home the night he was allegedly contacted by Alejandro, according to Contreras's sister and mother.
Nancy Contreras, Flavio Contreras's sister, told the court her family was up late watching TV the night of May 23, when they heard a knock on the door. Nancy said Alejandro came into the house after talking with Flavio Contreras at the door for a few minutes.
Sofia Ayala, Flavio Contreras's mother, also testified, and said Alejandro told her he wanted Flavio to go with him for 30 minutes. Both men left and Nancy and her other siblings went to sleep.
Two hours later, Ayala woke Nancy up and told her Flavio had not returned. After calling different friends and acquaintances, including Alejandro, the family heard another knock on the door. A police officer had been sent to their house.
Ayala told the court that when she talked with Alejandro over the phone, he told her Flavio was with some other friends and that he did not know exactly where.
Flavio Contreras, who testified Tuesday afternoon, said when he opened the door the night of May 23, he saw Alejandro, who was looking for a friend of Contreras's.
Contreras refused to tell Alejandro about his friend's whereabouts, and that's when Alejandro told him to go with him, threatening to shoot Contreras.
Alejandro took Contreras to a car that was waiting for them near Contreras's house. In the car, Contreras saw three other individuals, though he only recognized one of them as "Eric." Flavio said he was taken to a county road away from his house and was asked several times again where his friend was. After Contreras refused to tell, Alejandro handed the gun to "Eric" and that was when Flavio was shot. He was left on the side of the road in the early morning of May 24.
The court also heard from a physician who assessed Contreras's injuries after he was shot.
Dr. Troy Clouse of Elkhart General Hospital worked the morning Contreras was admitted.
Clouse told the court Contreras received two gunshot wounds to his right arm and one to his abdomen. He said that had Contreras not received immediate help, he would have died from his wounds.
Contreras also received a superficial gunshot wound to the head and another bullet grazed his neck.
Although Contreras denied being part of a gang, he did acknowledge that he and his group of friends got into trouble a few times. That was some time before he was shot.
During his testimony, Contreras told the court he was involved with a group of friends who were part of a gang, Society's Most Wanted, but that he himself was not involved. He said that while hanging out with this group of friends, he got involved in some fights years ago. He also said he got himself in trouble, and that he was placed on home detention.
He escaped by cutting his anklet and went to Mexico. He told the court that when he came back, by the end of 2012, he had no desire to get in trouble again.
Dennis Patino, a friend of Contreras, told the court Contreras was part of SMW, a "clique." Patino also said Alejandro was a member of Latin Kings, but he did not believe gang affiliation had anything to do with his actions on May 23.
However, a printout of a Facebook page distributed as evidence showed a message Patino wrote that made references of gang affiliations. The message was posted some time before Contreras was shot.

Li-Ning holds a press event to launch a new line of sportswear. (Photo/Xinhua)
Burdened by high rents, excess stock, and the sluggish economy, domestic sporting goods brands in China such as Li-Ning, 361 Degrees, Anta and Peak are struggling.
"We believe that a business model which relies on wholesalers is causing a bottleneck. As a result, we are switching to retail-oriented operations," says Li-Ning spokesperson Li Wei.
Massive excess inventory is a serious problem for Li-Ning, one which has prompted the company to overhaul its sales model in the hope of finding a long-term solution. Under the new program, the company will move to a more flexible, quick-response model better suited to matching real-time demand, offer customers a unified brand experience at its outlets and improve supply chain efficiency, thereby cutting costs and the time it takes to get a product to market.
According to its financial statements, as of June 2012 the company was laden with warehoused inventory valued at 1.1 billion yuan (US$176 million).
Presently, the Beijing-based company operates a retailer to agent to factory sales model. For most items, it holds four order placement meetings a year, when sales agents place orders based on their judgment of market demand. When retailers are optimistic about demand, they increase orders, prompting factories to expand production. When real demand falls short of forecast demand warehouses overflow.
"Li-Ning holds four order placement meetings a year, requiring sales agents to order in bulk, which imposes heavy pressure on sales agents. Although prices for the advance order placement are lower, sales agents often have to use discounting to clear inventories in just a few weeks once the new products hit the market, even selling at a loss," says one agent.
As a result, many agents minimize their orders at those meetings, risking the need to later have to purchase spot goods at higher prices should demand exceed expectations.
"Placing orders in advance is still the mainstream business model in the sporting goods sector. However, we have to modify the mechanism in order to cut inventories of backed up due to the old model, and phase in the new model," says Li Wei.

Havertown PCP
September 1999
Collection Trench Completed
This summer, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finished building a trench designed to capture the contaminated shallow ground water flowing from the Havertown PCP Site located on Eagle Road. This contaminated water once discharged to Naylors Run. Now it is collected in the trench, and cleaned before discharge. To date, over three million gallons of ground water have been collected and cleaned in a temporary treatment system set up at the site.
For the next six to eight months, the water will be cleaned by EPA using the temporary treatment system. During this time, plans for the final treatment system will be finalized. Once the system is designed, it will be installed in the treatment plant building. In 1991, EPA and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania outlined the cleanup plan for shallow ground water in a legal document call the Record of Decision (ROD). The ROD broke the project into four parts:
- Install a collection trench behind the Philadelphia Chewing Gum factory (completed). The trench is 200 feet long by 18 feet deep, and is capturing the oil and contaminated ground water that is moving from the site under Eagle Road and towards Naylor's run.
- Install two oil extraction wells along Eagle Road (completed). These wells will reduce the size of the contaminant plume floating on the water table. These wells will be pumped once the permanent treatment system is in place.
- Seal the existing storm drain to prevent contamination from entering it. This will be done by placing a liner inside the pipe, or by mending the pipe joints with an impervious grout. This will allow only storm water to flow into this drain.
- Construct a ground water treatment plant. The treatment plant will clean the ground water before discharging it into Naylor's Run. The building that will house the treatment plant has been completed. Now that the trench is completed, the size and makeup of the treatment system design can be finalized, and the system fabricated.
EPA, working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and USACE's con- tractor, Radian International, Inc., started constructing the trench at the end of April, 1999, and completed the trench at the end of July, 1999 (with the exception of the restoration of the surface, which is now being planned).
Throughout the construction process, contaminated water that flowed into the trench was collected and treated. As shown by the quantity of contaminated water that the trench is intercepting, the trench appears to be working as planned.
Upcoming Actions
EPA, USACE, and Radian will be completing the following activities over the next months:
- Test pumping of the trench to determine the quantity of water and the concentration of contaminants collected. This information will be used to finalize the design of the treatment plant. (September)
- Request proposals from qualified vendors of treatment systems that can clean the contaminated water from the trench and wells. (September - November)
- Fabricate and install the treatment plant. (Spring-Summer 2000)
- Construct trenches for pipelines that will connect the collection trench (behind the Philadelphia Chewing Gum Company) to the treatment plant building (on the former Lobb Lumber property). (Fall 1999)
Upcoming Work
- Seal the storm drain (Fall 1999).
- Remove the existing oil/water separator on Naylor's Run (after sealing storm drain).
- Restore/landscape areas disturbed by construction (ongoing).

"EPA Adds $53 Million to Pennsylvania's Clean Water Fund"
Public health in Pennsylvania will be enhanced through a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The $53.3 million grant to the state's Clean Water Revolving Fund will provide loans to communities for cleaning and treating wastewater (sewage). State funds, provided as a match to the federal funds, add nearly $10.7 million, bringing the total contribution this year to almost $64 million. The grant was awarded to the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (Pennvest). With this recent grant award, federal funds for Pennsylvania's Clean Water Revolving Fund now total $618.9 million. The fund provides assistance to communities with the greatest public health concerns, and the least ability to comply with the Clean Water Act and afford wastewater treatment facility upgrades or new construction. As communities repay the fund, loans are available for other wastewater projects. Earlier this year, EPA also awarded a grant to Pennsylvania's Drinking Water Revolving Fund which improves drinking systems throughout the state. This fund is also managed by Pennvest.

Attention all passengers, we should be arriving to Middle-earth in a little less than a year (oh, is that all?!).
We know that it sucks to have to wait so long before feasting your eyes on The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in theaters, but at least we've got the teaser trailer to hold you for about two minutes until then (unless you watch it over and over. And over).
So let's discuss what this preview has to offer...
1. Young Bilbo: Pictures just don't do him justice. We finally get to see Martin Freeman in action as he takes on the iconic and leading role of the young Bilbo Baggins, who gets swept into the journey of a lifetime by trying to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the dragon Smaug.
2. Who Are You? A lot of new characters were introduced in this film, including a slew of dwarves (whose alter ego actors wouldn't recognize anyway with all that special-effects makeup) and actor Richard Armitage, who plays head honcho Thorin Oakenshiel.
3. Familiar Faces: Don't worry, fans. Many characters from The Lord of the Rings are also featured in the film. Gandalf (Ian McKellen), Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Galadriel (Cate Blanchett) make appearances in the trailer, but we'll have to wait to see Legolas (Orlando Bloom), Elrond (Hugo Weaving) and Saruman (Christopher Lee).
4. Dark Days Are Back: Die-hard LOTR fans might also enjoy the overall look and feel to the film. Unlike the animated Hobbit from back in the day, a lot of scenes from the new film are going to seem very similar to Jackson's first three films, with dark and chilling moments and the oh-so-exciting run-ins with Goblins, Orcs, Wargs and giant spiders.
5. Gollum's Still Here: At the very end of the teaser, we hear that cringing voice that makes us feel icky inside but also so captivating that we can't stop listening. Yes, our "precious" Gollum (Andy Serkis) makes a silhouetted appearance, along with the ring!

Cincinnati Bearcat Baseball Post Game Interviews Are The Best
We have all seen it before, a post game interview is nothing spectacular – especially a college baseball teams college TV station doing said interview. So what do you do? You turn things up a notch with some real creativity, as demonstrated by the Cincinnati Bearcat's!
This is absolutely hilarious. If more post game interviews went like this, we might stick around to watch them. e aren't sure which one of these moments is our favorite, but we are leaning heavily toward the jousting incident.

While streaming data to Hadoop with Flume, I have ran into several instances where I get a large amount of 0 byte files.
I am still trying to determine exactly what triggers this to happen, but in the meantime, and for general maintenance and clean up, here is a simple shell command I have come up with to make this happen.
Run the following command from the terminal on your HDFS namenode (line wrapped for readability:
>$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop fs -lsr
| \ grep seq |awk '{ if ($5 == 0) print $8 }' |xargs \ /$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop fs -rm
Make sure $HADOOP_HOME is set to the installation directory of your Hadoop installation, or replace it with the full path.
Now what does the above command do. First it performs a recursive list of the HDFS path specified. The output is piped to grep to only include the seq files, otherwise we get a listing of the directories that will also appear to be 0 byte, and trying to remove a directory with the Hadoop rm command will just result in errors. The grep output is the piped to awk and we check to see if 5th field ( the file size field) is equal to 0, here is our 0 byte files. Alright, we have now filter the list of files in HDFS and we pipe the final output to xargs and the Hadoop command to remove the file. Nothing to it. Our HDFS filesystem should be free of 0 byte files.

|The Game Story:
|Hobart used a 5-0 run to start the fourth quarter to earn an 11-6 victory over the Canisius College men's lacrosse team on Tuesday night at the Demske Sports Complex. The Griffs drop to 1-3 on the season, while the Statesmen improve to 2-4 with the win.
"Just like our previous game, Hobart got a five-goal run late that we couldn't stop," said Canisius head coach Randy Mearns. "They won key faceoffs and got a timely man-up goal to win this game. I was proud of our effort but we aren't getting the results that we are looking for. We just have to find where we went wrong, regroup and come back stronger on Saturday against Manhattan."
Freshman Tim Edwards led the Griffs with three points on the night, netting a goal and registering two assists. Senior Travis Gibbons recorded a team-best two scores, with senior Simon Giourmetakis and freshmen Brandon Bull and Cody Gould each adding one tally.
Senior Sean Callahan recorded 11 saves in net for the Griffs, while seniors Brendan Murphy and Ryan O'Hagan each registered a game-high three caused turnovers to anchor the Canisius defense.
The Statesmen opened the game strong, netting the first three goals of the contest to grab the early advantage. Hobart scored two man-up goals 37 seconds apart before a third goal with 3:49 remaining in the first for the 3-0 lead.
Canisius answered back and pulled to within one by tallying the next two goals. Gibbons scored the Griffs' first goal of the game with 11:20 left in the second frame before Edwards scored off a pass from Giourmetakis with five mintues left in the half. Hobart tallied one final goal in the period as the teams headed into the intermission with the Statesmen leading, 4-2.
The Griffs took advantage of multiple man-up opportunities in the third quarter to get back into the game. Edwards set up Gould and Giourmetakis for extra-man goals at the 12:41 and 7:24 marks to pull Canisius even, 4-4.
Hobart answered with two goals by Sam Miller to reclaim its two-goal advantage but Gibbons finished the third-quarter scoring with a man-up goal as the teams headed into the final stanza with Hobart leading, 6-5.
For the second-straight game, a run to start the fourth quarter doomed the Griffs. Hobart netted the first five goals of the period, scoring all five goals in a 2:28 span to take control of the contest. Bull netted the final goal of the game for Canisius - his first collegiate tally - but the Statesmen held on for the 11-6 victory.
Hobart finished the game with a slight edge in shots, 41-40, and won the faceoff battle, 12-8. Miller and Alex Love both netted hat tricks for the Statesmen, with Peter Zonino recording 11 saves in the winning effort.
Canisius returns to MAAC play on Saturday, hosting Manhattan. Game time at the Demske Sports Complex is scheduled for 11 a.m.
Game Notes: Canisius shot just .150 in Tuesday's loss after entering the game with a .354 shooting percentage, the fifth-highest mark in the country ... Gibbons now has 11 points this season, surpassing his point total from his first three seasons combined (nine) ... Canisius netted three-man up goals after scoring just twice with the extra-man advantage in its first three games ... Hobart improves to 12-1 all-time against Canisius, winning the last two meetings.

By now you've probably heard the story of the young Florida lifeguard, Tomas Lopez, who was fired earlier this month because he left his station unmanned to help with a rescue in an unguarded section of the beach, in violation of his company's standard operating procedures.
Over the Fourth of July holiday, this story played out in the national media as a parable about the foolish rigidity of business managers. Lopez, along with six other guards who were fired or quit as part of the imbroglio, were all offered their jobs back by an apologetic owner of the lifeguard management firm (they declined). And last week, Lopez was awarded the key to the city by Hallandale Beach's elected leaders who vowed to not renew the contract with Jeff Ellis Management, the lifeguard firm that had brought such unwelcome attention.

Massenas defensive strength prevailed over OFAs concerted improvement in Saturdays Northern Conference Boys Lacrosse game staged at the Blue Devils Alton W. Elliott Memorial Athletic Complex.
The 4-2 Raiders defense blanked OFA (1-3) for the first 16 minutes of the second half and were optimistic on offense in recording a 9-5 victory. In other action St. Lawrence Central trimmed Potsdam 7-4 and Salmon River outscored South Burlington 12-8.
We have been very strong defensively all year. We are only allowing five goals a game. Andrew Bender and Ross Davis do a great job leading us defensively and our backup goalie Troy Benedict stepped in and did a nice job today, said Massena Coach Kris Covell after his team bounced back from a 7-6 loss to Canton.
I thought both teams played very well in some tough conditions. It was really tough to keep your footing out there.
The Raiders, who had 11 players figure in their scoring, took a 5-3 halftime lead and opened an 8-3 margin before OFAs Taylor Richardson scored off two outstanding shots in the final four minutes.
Richardson finished with four goals on the day and Ross Driscoll tallied three goals and one assist to lead the Raiders.
We played with great effort and we were very disciplined today. It was a very good game. Taylor Richardson scored some great goals today and Austin Morley-Sloan, Nate Peo and Andrew Putman did a great job winning faceoffs which gave us a lot of extra possessions, said OFA Coach Matt Morley after his team was denied a chance to follow up a 10-9 win over St. Lawrence Central on Thursday.
Their goalie made some great stops and he was a key for them today.
Benedict finished with 13 saves on the day backed by offensive contributions from: Ryan Thomas (1 goal, 1 assist), Sako Rourke (1 goal, 2 assists), Hunter Pyke (1 assist), Jeff Bain (1 goal), Kendrick Angus (1 assist), Rhoades Tarbell (2 goals, 1 assist), Zach Koszan (1 assist), Nick Henrie (2 assists) and Cole Allen (1 goal).
Dave Prudhomme scored one goal for OFA and Peo and Andrew Roddy passed out assists to back a 10-save effort from Quinton Denner.
Salmon River 12, South Burlington Vt. 8: Kason Tarbell generated four goals and three assists and Skye Sunday tallied three goals for Salmon River which overcame a 6-3 halftime deficit. Tazz Oakes made eight saves in the defensive effort. Alan Jacobs connected for two goals and Kyle Lewis (1-1), Skylar Thomas (1-0), and Lakota Square (1-0) rounded out the offense.
Cam Nolting scored four goals and one assist and Willy Campagne connected for three goals and one assist to lead South Burlington. John Murray handled nine shots.
SLC 7, Potsdam 4: In a solid game by both defenses, the Larries gained a slight advantage of better opportunities in the win.
