If you want to go:
Tiësto performs with opening acts DJ Trevor Simpson and DJ Freez at 10 p.m. Dec. 19 in the Tuscany Events Center at the Peppermill. Tickets are $39, available at the Peppermill and online at peppermillreno.com/entertainment. Details: 877-525-7469.
The Peppermill should be jumping Friday with electronic music when world-renowned Tiësto performs his style of trance.
Voted the No. 1 DJ in the world for 2008 by the DJ List, Tiësto has spurred millions around the world to dance to his hypnotic, pulsating sound.
Although a mainstay on the electronica scene, millions of people were introduced to Tiësto when he performed during the opening ceremony for the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. His third album, "Elements of Life," was nominated earlier this year for a Grammy -- a key award that's eluded him. In an e-mail Q&A with the Reno Gazette-Journal, Tiësto comments on the Grammy, his music and a little bit about himself:
Question: There are many who don't know what trance music is. How would you describe your sound?
A: I describe my music as melodic, emotional music, which is also energetic, uplifting and happy!
Q: Will you remain on the compilation-album trek with "In Search of Sunrise"? What's next?
A: I am currently working on a new (original) artist album, but it will take a while before that's finished. It will be released in the new year and I'm very excited about it.
Q: You have a strong international following. How do U.S. crowds compare?
A: I think I have a strong following here as well. The crowds here are giving me lots of love!
Q: You've performed in many extraordinary settings, including the opening ceremony for the Summer Olympics in Athens in 2004. Is there a venue that you're dying to play in?
A: Not really, it's more the crowd I play for than the venue. When the crowd is really feeling your set, then you feel like you are on top of the world.
Q: It sounds like your show has expanded trance beyond just the music to a creative visual mix. Are all those elements part of the evolution of your sound?
A: Yes they are part of the evolution of the entire experience. It's the song and how they will feel in a crowd through the sound production that I think about when I'm creating tracks, then the visuals just play into that. Visuals take the whole experience to a higher level and everything is connected.
Q: You've been called a mainstream artist. Do you agree with that label?
A: The term "mainstream" is relative. I don't think I am mainstream personally, but it all depends who you are asking. If you ask a very deep underground techno DJ this question, then yes he will think I am mainstream. But if you ask DJs who work with the big hip-hop guys or a mainstream top 100 artist, they will say I am very underground. I still am on my own label which I started at the very beginning of my career and take a lot of pride in that.
Q: Your parties go on for hours. How do you prepare to do that?
A: The preparation for a set is never finished. I work on my set every day, I add new tracks and go through my set to see where I can improve.
Q: What's with all the aliases? (His real name is Tijs Verwest)
A: I like to release tracks under different names so people don't know right away that it's a Tiësto track.
Q: You'll be 40 next month. Do you primarily get the younger generation at your parties or do they look like you?
My crowd is between the ages of 18 and 60.
Q: What are the elements of a successful party for you?
A: The most important thing is that the crowd goes home happy!
Q: You've been named international DJ of the year, is there an award that has slipped through your fingers that you'd like to have?
A: Well, I think every musician is honored to win a Grammy, so that is still on my wishlist!
Q: Have you ever been to Northern Nevada and seen any of our spectacular sights?
A: Yes, California and Nevada are actually my two favorite areas to visit. I went to Lake Tahoe on a holiday trip and cruised around there. It's very beautiful and inspiring to see the mountains and mining towns. There's a lot of history there.

|Are eating occasions and their energy content related to child overweight and socioeconomic status?
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 18772863 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The objectives of this study were: (i) to assess the relationships between childhood overweight (OW) and four eating behaviors: daily eating frequency, and the relative contribution of breakfast, main meals (lunch and dinner), and snacks to total daily energy intake (EI); (ii) to explore whether these eating behaviors are involved in the negative association between socioeconomic status (SES) and OW. A representative sample of French children aged 3-11 years (n = 748) was taken from the 1998-1999 cross-sectional French INCA1 (Enquête Individuelle et Nationale sur les Consommations Alimentaires) food consumption survey. Food intake was reported in a 7-day food record, and SES, physical activity, sedentary behavior (SED), weight, and height were reported by answering face-to-face questionnaires. After adjusting for EI, physical activity, and SED, OW was positively associated with the contribution of the main meals to EI (P = 0.03), not significantly associated with the contribution of breakfast to EI, and inversely correlated to the number of eating episodes (P = 0.009) and to the contribution of snacking episodes to EI (P = 0.007). Our data suggest that a combination of more frequent intake occasions and lower contribution of the main meals to total daily EI is associated with a smaller risk of OW in children. However, eating frequency was the only eating behavior that played a slight mediation role (contributing approximately 8%) in the inverse relationship between SES and OW.

|Ecological momentary assessment of temptation and lapse in dieting.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 15001025 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE
|Although some research attention has been given to the factors associated with temptation and lapse in dieting, the majority of research has focused on individuals in weight loss clinical trials and relied heavily on retrospective self-report data. The present study sought to overcome these limitations by using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) techniques to examine situations of dietary temptation, lapse, and minimal dietary consequence with a sample of overweight dieters (N=30) attempting to lose weight on their own. Results support and extend previous research findings on dietary temptation and lapse. In general, results indicate that recent consumptive activity, location, mood state, type of activity, and abstinence violation effects were related to moments of temptation and/or lapse. Education on the factors associated with dietary temptation and lapse and strategies for addressing these factors is imperative for both dieters in formal programs and those attempting to lose or maintain weight on their own.

3 Fringe Reviews: The Blitz Continues … (A Hockey Story, A Dinosaur and A Hex)
Calgary Fringe Festival Shows Reviewed Here:
Charlie: A Hockey Story, Tinfoil Dinosaur and Preparation Hex (see previous posts for other reviews).
It was pretty quiet on the Calgary Fringe Festival grounds on Saturday after Inglewood's Sunfest Festival closed down – perhaps everyone skipped town for the mountains after all, since it is one of the nicest long weekends we've had in Calgary since … well, maybe, ever. After working all afternoon schlepping Lunchbox Theatre programmes, I was a little weary and perhaps a little sun struck, but did have enough energy to get in three shows last night – and even a quick bite of dinner. All the same, I chose to forego the late-night improv show in favour of sleeping. When I awoke refreshed this morning, I knew I'd made the right choice.
Saturday's selections just happened to all be one-man shows in a storytelling vein – with mixed reviews. Only the first of these had music, and only a little.
Charlie: A Hockey Story (Stash Needle Art Lounge)
In Charlie: A Hockey Story, Vancouver's Jim Sands weaves storytelling with music to talk about his uncle Charlie Sands' NHL hockey career in the 1930's and early 1940's, during the days of larger-than-life characters like Foster Hewitt, Conn Smythe, King Clancy and Eddie Shore. I'm not much of a hockey fan, but I quite enjoyed this show, largely due to Jim's energetic delivery as he told tale after tale about some of the great moments in early hockey history, mixed with a little Shakespeare for good measure. These include the longest game in hockey and the on-ice altercation between Shore and Ace Bailey that nearly killed the latter and taught Jim lessons about forgiveness – and the power of marketing over morality. Between stories he played guitar and sang original music, and encouraged us to sing along, which was quite fun. I really liked the intimacy of the Stash Needle Point Art Lounge, one of the Fringe's new Bring-Your-Own-Venues locations. Because they're not running any other shows in that space, Charlie: A Hockey Story is on every night from 7:45PM to 8:55PM. This means you can still catch a show that ends at 7:30PM and take this one in. It would probably benefit the show, both artistically and commercially, if he were to cut the show by 5-10 minutes. As it is, you might be able to make it to the nearby Lantern Church for 9PM, but probably not to any of the other venues.
Tinfoil Dinosaur (Artpoint Gallery)
In Tinfoil Dinosaur, another Vancouver artist, Sam S. Mullins shares the struggle of his funny experiences with failure and anxiety as a young actor until his life and hopes were turned around when a new family came to the restaurant where he was a waiter. When he asked them for their order, much to his surprise, they asked for a tinfoil dinosaur, which he proceeded to create and deliver with great panache. The show, which won the Best of Fest award at the Winnipeg Fringe Festival and a number of other awards, is a very intimate one – more storytelling than acting. While Sam does a good job of speaking directly to the audience in an authentic way, I can't say that he held my attention. I liked the bit at the beginning where he makes the little tinfoil dinosaur, but then for the rest of the show, I kept asking myself, "OK, so when are we going to get to the dinosaur part of the story?" (not unlike I felt when I saw MUSEO in May – it must be the kid/geologist in me). Sam does eventually get there, but the 10 minutes I liked didn't make up for the 50 minutes that mostly bored me. I think the show would have been even more interesting had he spent the whole time telling his story while slowly making the dinosaur from rolls of tinfoil until it was an impressive beast or at least leaving the dinosaur on stage for the entire show. This is one of the few General Audience shows at the Fringe, so there were a few kids there. The family I spoke to after the show gave it mixed reviews: the teenage girl felt like I did, the younger boy said he was completely drawn in, and the adults thought it was pretty good. I think Sam has the personality to be a great performer and I look forward to seeing him after he has a few more Fringes under his belt.
Preparation Hex (DaDe Art and Design Lab)
For my final show of the evening, I chose Preparation Hex, by New York's Bob Brader, who was here last year with his award-winning show "Spitting in the Face of the Devil" (one of many I missed). In this show, he talks about the loves and lusts of his life in the lead-up to said show, starting with the breakup of a long-term live-in relationship and ending with the development of his love for his now-wife Suzanne Bachner who directed and developed the show with him. During this period he is struggling with a debilitating case of hemorrhoids – an especially painful condition for someone who makes a living sitting on his ass and telling funny stories and has a big show coming up. He visits some not-always-helpful doctors, loads himself up with medicinal creams and takes never-ending sitz baths, to no avail. He decides someone has put a hex on him, and calls up a Wiccan friend who advises him to burn dragon's blood and it all works out in the end, of course (as it were). Of the three performers tonight, Bob is the most experienced and the strongest, with razor-sharp delivery and timing, and effective depiction of the various characters. I thought the show was OK, but on the whole, the plot didn't work for me – hemorrhoid humour being a little too obvious. I also found Bob's stories about the various women with whom he gets involved rather repetitive, and not all that funny – true perhaps, but I think he can do better. A lot of people clearly love(d) this show, so although it wasn't my thing, it might be yours. Some of the proceeds from this production are going to Little Warriors, a Canadian charity focussing on the education and prevention of child sexual abuse, the subject of Bob's last show.
That's it for my Calgary Fringe Festival opening blitz, although I plan to get to several more shows – perhaps 1-2 a day like "normal" people – before the Fringe is over. Check back for more reviews through the rest of the week.
The Calgary Fringe Festival runs from August 3 to August 11. Tickets are $10-$15 per show plus your $5 Fringe button and most shows are about an hour long. For schedules and online tickets (well worth it for popular shows), go to Calgary Fringe Festival.

Adaptive strategies
Adaptive strategies
Adaptive strategies is a term used to describe ways in which individuals, households and communities have changed their mix of productive activities, and modified their community rules and institutions over the long term, in response to economic or environmental shocks or stresses, in order to meet their livelihood needs. Adaptive strategies are a mix of traditional livelihood systems, modified by locally or externally induced innovations, and coping strategies that have become permanent. They arise from the "dynamic interaction and mutual interdependence between human agency and the ecosystem" (Titi and Singh, 1994b). Adaptive strategies are conceived not only in human socio-economic systems, but in nature. The ecosystems in which traditional livelihood systems evolved are also dynamic, and interactive.
(C. Berhe-Tesfu, Human Adaptations,
1993, p.22)
In contrast to long-term adaptive strategies, coping strategies are short-term
responses in secure livelihood systems to periodic stress. Households use a mix
of coping strategies to deal with stress and shocks. These include:
As the severity of the challenge increases with time, so does the commitment of domestic resources and the degree of irreversibility. Thus, over time, coping strategies may evolve into adaptive strategies. More importantly, the continued availability of coping strategies and options is necessary for adaptive strategies to work.
To learn more about how communities adapt to change, check out:
Adaptive strategies have an historical or time dimension. A "traditional" livelihood system represents
a set of adaptations to the environment, and responses to stimuli, that have taken place sufficiently
far back in time - perhaps several centuries, and sometimes millennia - for remembrance of the
innovation to have been lost to contemporary memory. The reconstruction of such changes may be
the subject of specialized historical investigation.
A normal practice may change in the face of stress or shock to become a coping strategy; when the stress is removed, normal practices are resumed. Alternatively, stress (change, pressure, opportunity) may lead to a pervasive change in practice, which then becomes an "adaptive strategy". Practices and adaptive strategies may be positive, functional, sustainable, and thus lead to sustainable livelihoods. Or they may be dysfunctional, leading to non-sustainable livelihoods - depletion of the environment or human resources, or continued external support, for example. In turn, sustainable livelihoods may be vulnerable or open to pervasive change, or may become stable and culturally assimilated and, in effect, become a new practice.

|Botulinum toxin and gastrointestinal tract disorders: panacea, placebo, or pathway to the future?
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21960915 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE
|The history of botulinum toxin is fascinating. First recognized as the cause of botulism nearly 200 years ago, it was originally feared as a deadly poison. Over the last 30 years, however, botulinum toxin has been transformed into a readily available medication used to treat a variety of medical disorders. Interest in the use of botulinum toxin has been particularly strong for patients with spastic smooth muscle disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. Patients with achalasia, diffuse esophageal spasm, gastroparesis, sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, and anal fissures have all been treated with botulinum toxin injections, often with impressive results. However, not all patients respond to botulinum toxin therapy, and large randomized controlled trials are lacking for many conditions commonly treated with botulinum toxin. This paper reviews the history, microbiology, and pharmacology of botulinum toxin, discusses its mechanism of action, and then presents recent evidence from the literature regarding the use of botulinum toxin for the treatment of a variety of gastrointestinal tract disorders.

WASHINGTON - After dozens of attempts to overturn the new health care law, House Republicans on Wednesday took a different tack, promoting legislation that would come to the rescue of a prominent program in the new law at the expense of another vital element of the law.
The House bill, named the "Helping Sick Americans Now Act," would prop up a faltering program that helps people with pre-existing conditions get insurance, doing so by taking money away from the 2010 law's main prevention fund.

|Early Arterial Stiffness and Inflammatory Bio-Markers in Normotensive Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22699414 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Background/Aims: Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients. To clarify temporal relationship between ADPKD, hypertension and the loss of renal function, we examined these factors in patients with early-stage ADPKD who did not yet have hypertension. Methods: Fifty patients with ADPKD (42% males, 36.6 ± 9.9 years, no blood pressure medication) and 50 healthy controls (44% males, 35.4 ± 6.4 years) were studied cross-sectionally. Pulse wave velocity (PWV), cardiac morphology and function, aortic elastic indexes, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were measured in all participants, using conventional methods. Results: Despite a normal blood pressure, aortic stiffness index and pulse wave velocity values were increased in patients compared to controls (6.8 ± 4.7 vs. 5.1 ± 3.3, p = 0.043 and 9.6 ± 1.3 vs. 5.8 ± 1.1 m/s, p < 0.001). In univariate analysis, IL-6, TNF-α, hs-CRP and eGFR were all significantly correlated with PWV. The independence of these correlations were analyzed in a regression model, and showed PWV to be significantly predicted by IL-6, TNF-α and hs-CRP. Conclusion: Increased arterial stiffness and pulse wave velocity are early manifestations of ADPKD appearing before hypertension or reduced eGFR. However, these vascular abnormalities are related to signs of systemic low grade inflammation, suggesting a common pathophysiological mechanism apparently present also in other vascular diseases but yet to be elucidated.

Introducing Instruments
I've been working on Instruments for some time now. Since I first wrote pyDimension, I've bolted on an interface for my web stats tracking app and a custom bookmarking app but it was all done rather clumsily.
Instruments is a Flask application skeleton that simply provides a login form and authenticates against a database. Functionality, such as a static blog generator or the aforementioned web stats and bookmarking can then be added as 'blueprints' which Instruments will load in at start up.
Instruments is available on GitHub
along with 3 plug-in 'blueprints':
Electrostatic is heavily based on my former system pyDimension, which is being retired now.
The primary purpose of Instruments is to provide a single place for login management. It's not quite as robust as I'd like it to be (it's as good as any I've ever made before), but the central codebase means that any improvements I make get reflected everywhere it's used.
There's still a fair bit to do (documentation!!), but I'm really pleased with it so far.

The thread heading caused that confusion.The original Moment (hybrid single wall with a mesh door/floor/side mesh attached) had an optional liner that could be added to cover the upper part of the shelter.The new DW (Double Wall ) version has the option of having the inner part (the bit Americans call tent) either in mesh or white fabric (solid) as seen above.So this is the Moment DW fly with the mesh inner:Same fly with the solid inner:Forget about the liner, that was for the original Moment
Edited by Franco on 09/26/2013 16:24:51 MDT.
I bought my Moment DW in May, so it must be the first version of the DW. Do you think it easy to remove the mesh inner and replace it with the new solid interior?
Yes, it can be un-clipped in a minute..That is one of the nice features of the Moment DW (same for the other TT double wall shelters) You can set it up and take it down as one unit or fly only with the inner removed.To remove the inner just twist the mitten hook out of the ring, no need to press that tongue.
Franco, Do you know how much the solid inner weighs? What about the mesh version for comparison?I apologize for the thread drift, but I noticed that Tarptent recently shortened the pole section length (18" vs. 20") for the Moment DW's arch pole; are there any corresponding changes to the shelter to accommodate this new shorter section length pole? Will it work with Moment DWs that originally came with a 20" section arch pole? Thanks.
Edited by FeetFirst on 09/26/2013 17:18:16 MDT.
Alex,the new 18" pole has an extra section, apart from that it is compatible with the current and previous versions of the fly.The solid inner is about 2oz (from memory) heavier than the mesh.So around 11oz for the mesh and 13 oz for the solid one.
Thanks, Franco. Now I wonder if I should grab the carbon version...
Do i have to first setup the tent in order to replace the mesh with the inner?
This is the Moment fly without any inner:To that you can have attached (or add any time you like) EITHER the mesh (first photo in my post above) OR the solid/white fabric inner (second photo in my post above)Usualy you would leave the inner attached during set up or take down but it takes only a minute to separate/attach if you like to do so.This is the mesh inner (tent in the USA) by itself :Note that the term "liner" used by the OP should be inner or tent.This thread is about the Moment DW (Double Wall) , not the original Moment
Edited by Franco on 10/10/2013 03:47:03 MDT.
In a place with too much condensation, would you suggest using the mesh liner or the solid interior?
This is how I see it.If with high humidity you also have some air flow (mild wind) then the mesh inner may help in keeping your stuff inside it dry or say reduce dampness.If on the other hand you also get strong winds or very still air, the solid (fabric) inner will give more protection and ,because the fabric breaths well but is also water repellent , it will let your perspiration pass through but protect you from possible drips from the underside of the fly.

Silent Night-Holy Night 18x18 Pillow Cover Set
These pillow covers are made from a 100% cotton fabric in the color "natural linen". One cover has the phrase "Silent Night" and the other has "Holy Night" printed in a black ink. The pillow covers are made to fit an 18 by 18 inch pillow form.
Silent Night and Holy Night were written in freehand first and then scanned in and burned onto a silk screen and then printed onto the pillows. Please note that this is a freehanded script and not a computerized font so therefore it isn't "perfect."
Also, the natural fabric that we use has lots of different "imperfections" to it. This is part of the fabric and not considered a mistake. It is part of what I love so much about this particular fabric and I have used it all throughout my home as I love this natural look.
PLEASE NOTE - These pillow covers are made to fit 18x18 pillow forms, but I like to stuff them with 20x20 inserts to make them look extra full and plump.
Because all of our products are handmade, items may not be perfectly identical. However, the photo does closely represent the product.
All Dear Lillie items come with a beautiful hang tag and are wrapped in tissue closed together with a Dear Lillie sticker. It makes a lovely gift!

About the College-Conservatory of Music
Location: University of Cincinnati main campus
Production facilities: 8,500-square-foot scene shop; 3,000-square-foot costume shop; wig, makeup and prosthetics studios, design/drafting studio, sound design studio and lighting laboratory.
Mezzo-soprano Audrey Walstrom of Los Alamos, N.M., could have gone anywhere in the country to study voice.
But she chose the University of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music.
"It has an excellent reputation in the voice world because the teachers are excellent," said Walstrom, 26. "For me, it just felt like a great fit."
Attracting students such as Walstrom, who's working on a graduate degree, is a key to CCM's future as one of the premier music schools in the country.
CCM helps to put this region in the cultural big leagues. It has connections to both the community and the broader world - from the Preparatory Department where parents take their children for piano, ballet or acting lessons, to its graduates who star on the world's greatest stages. Audiences can see an astonishing 1,000 performances at CCM each year, many of them free.

Video: Jazz and Piano
Flash: CCM Timeline
Quiz: See how much you know about CCM
Locally, CCM offers an incredible pool of talent - not only conductors, musicians, dancers, composers and music teachers, but also executives running important media outlets, such as the CEO of Cumulus Radio Group, which operates five stations in Cincinnati.
But keeping CCM among the elite won't be easy. UC is bracing for budget cuts of up to 20 percent next year, which would restrict the classes it can offer, the professors it can attract and the students it can lure with scholarships.
CCM also is strapped with a $4.9 million loan it must pay off for its new fleet of Steinway pianos.
The college is under particular pressure because it depends on private donations to fund scholarships for students choosing among the nation's top music schools. If it's forced to cut the nearly $15 million it pays out in scholarships each year, many of those most talented students will go elsewhere.
CCM leaders know that raising more money to fund more scholarships is the best path to remaining elite. Meanwhile, department chairs are going through budgets to determine where they can make worst-case scenario cuts.
"It's getting to the critical point," interim Dean Frank Weinstock said. "For CCM to stay where it is, private funds are going to become more and more necessary. Scholarship dollars are paramount. We just need more."
UC's top officials have pledged to try to protect CCM and other high-profile programs in budget talks this spring and to keep funneling money to scholarships.
"I know it's a jewel at UC," said the university's new provost, Santa Ono, who played cello and piano as a child in the Preparatory Division of the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore. "It's one of our key assets. I'm committed to doing everything I can to protect that position nationally. I haven't made a final decision, but I've made it very clear that I won't do something simple-minded like across-the-board cuts."
Ono has launched a search for a new CCM dean.
The creative vitality of CCM's graduates is the currency it carries into the marketplace, but that's a hard thing to measure in dollars.
CCM's assets are considerable. It occupies a $93.2 million complex on UC's main campus and welcomed a record enrollment of 1,468 students this year.
Last fall, 713 applicants vied for 20 musical theater slots, while 434 singers competed for 43 opera graduate-school spots.
CCM has turned out dozens of performers with international resumes, from household names such as Broadway star Faith Prince to recent rising stars such as Xian Zhang, the first woman appointed to the conducting staff of the New York Philharmonic.
But the financial pressures it faces are intense, one factor that helped drive the former dean, Douglas Knehans, out of the job last year after he feuded with faculty.
In contrast to some UC colleges that rely mostly on students from this region, CCM faces pressure to attract students from throughout the nation. It operates in rarefied air where music schools battle for the best students, with the best offer usually winning.
"It's a cause for concern for everyone," said Earl Rivers, director of CCM's choral studies program and head of ensembles and conducting. "There are some schools in the country that are able to fully fund their students, such as Yale. And we compete with them in the choral department. We do fully fund some of our students (about 70 percent) but we can't fund them all."
Roberto Diaz, president and CEO of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, said CCM "has a terrific reputation as one of the really important music schools in this country.
"Ultimately, it's the faculty that makes the school important," he said, "not its affiliation to other institutions."
Curtis is an elite music school with just 165 students - all on full scholarship.
"It's so competitive with music schools now," Diaz said. "Students are auditioning for four, five and six schools, and there are terrific teachers in all of these schools. They'll make their decision (based on) getting into the right studio and how much scholarship they're offered."
During a recent stroll across the CCM grounds in the heart of UC's main campus, the sounds of trumpets, pianos and violins drifted from Memorial Hall across the plaza of CCM Village, a complex designed by master architect Henry Cobb. In the nearby Dieterle Vocal Arts Center, overlooking Nippert Stadium, opera singers were staging scenes from "The Marriage of Figaro."
Inside Corbett Center for the Performing Arts, students were studying music history, theory and composition in technologically advanced "smart classrooms." At the other end of the center, budding theater designers were painting sets and creating costumes.
A basement rehearsal room buzzed with the sounds of the Jazz Ensemble. Upstairs, ballet dancers rehearsed, actors learned their lines and musical theater babies tapped out routines for Broadway auditions. In a state-of-the-art electronic media center, media wizards edited their own films.
CCM measures its success by its stars. Its graduates populate concert halls, opera stages and Broadway shows, help produce TV shows and movies and compose symphonies and film scores. Locally, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra has more than a dozen CCM graduates among its ranks.
Musical theater alumni who have been on Broadway include Karen Olivo, Tony Award winner for the recent "West Side Story" revival, and Leslie Kritzer, whose Broadway resume includes featured roles in "Legally Blonde," "A Catered Affair" and "Sondheim on Sondheim."
Many of CCM's opera grads join prestigious young artist programs with major opera companies.
Behind the scenes, faculty members say, they are learning to make do with less.
Said Robin Guarino, who holds the J. Ralph Corbett Distinguished Chair in Opera, supported by the school's largest endowment fund: "Obviously there's concern about the endowment, because the economic situation is forcing us to be extremely hands-on with our budget, but also to be creative and work together.
"It's cut-to-the-chase time."

HIDCOTE and Lawrence Johnston:
The American Who Transformed 20th-century English Garden Design
Talk by Ethne Clarke, Garden Historian
May 4, 2015 at 4:00pm
Cornerstone Screening Room
Sponsored by the Art Department's Harold E. Berg Endowment
Ethne Clarke, an internationally known garden historian, author of Hidcote: The Making of a Garden will speak at Colorado College on Monday afternoon, May 4, at 4:00 p.m. in the Screening Room in the Cornerstone Art Center. The famous early-20th-century gardens at Hidcote in the Cotswolds, recognized as the epitome of the classic English country garden style, were actually designed by an American, Lawrence Johnston. He was one of the so-called "Henry James Americans," who lived their lives between Europe and the United States. Hidcote was the first garden to be taken into the custody of England's National Trust. Clarke has researched not only the garden, but also Johnston's life, the social and intellectual milieu of his era, and the contemporary influences on his garden-making.
Ethne Clarke is a professional horticulturist and the author of fifteen books on landscape history and gardening including The Art of the Kitchen Garden, Making a Herb Garden and with Rosemary Verey, The Scented Garden. Her biography of Cecil Pinsent, Infintiy of Graces, is the first biography of the English architect who created many of the best-loved villas and gardens in Tuscany, such as La Foce (for Iris Origo) and I Tatti (for Bernard Berenson). Formerly the editor-in-chief of Organic Gardening and garden editor for Traditional Home, Clarke has also contributed to The American Gardener, Horticulture, Pacific Horticulture, Garden Design, Gardens Illustrated, Hortus, Homes and Gardens, Country Life, and RHS The Garden. Resident in England for 30 years, she was the recipient of the 1987 Angel Literary Award for Art of the Kitchen Garden. Clarke has a Master of Philosophy in Art and Design from De Montfort University, Leicester, England.
Heather Oelklaus, Print Workshop Supervisor, is having a solo show at
the Sangre De Cristo Arts and Conference Center!
Emma Powell,
Assistant Professor of Photography

Emma Powell: Juggling Butterflies
November 24 – December 17, 2014
Emma Powell (Assistant Professor of Art) introduces her photography to Colorado College with this one-person exhibition. Fascinated by the history of photography, Powell incorporates historic processes and devices into her contemporary practice. Past projects have included archaic technologies such as wet plate collodion process and old Kodak cameras. Her recent work navigates the fine line between reality and fantasy, using self-portraiture to articulate personal narratives. Using a cyanotype process, Powell creates a backdrop in which archetypal universal symbols combine and collide.
Closed November 26 -- 30 for Thanksgiving Break
Reopening for regular hours December 1 -- 17
Scott Johnson's Mute Earth
at the Museum of Outdoor Arts
MUTE EARTH will consist of original works created by Scott Johnson specifically for the MOA galleries and will include site-specific installations and large-scale objects as well as a series of photographic pieces. Johnson will utilize the entirety of the MOA main exhibition galleries, multimedia galleries and atrium for this unique exhibition.
Scott Johnson is well known for his work with a wide range of materials and for his thought-provoking sculptural installations. MUTE EARTH will explore the complex relationship between modes of representation and perception with regard to landscape and architectural space. The installations presented as part of this exhibition are the result of Johnson's literary research, experimentation with new materials and direct observation of natural phenomena and cultural artifacts, places, and structures. A Colorado native, Johnson incorporated regional phenomena and elements of the Colorado landscape into his conceptual threads for the works created for this exhibition.

Heather Oelklaus: One of a Kind
July 29 - November 9, 2014
at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center
Heather Oelklaus, Heal (detail), 2014, Chemigram, 50 x 51 inches, edition of one, Courtesy of the artist
Colorado Springs-based artist Heather Oelklaus explores her subjects through historic photographic processes. Although Oelklaus employs vintage techniques, many of which date back to the beginnings of photography itself, her compositions frequently speak the language of abstract painting or motion pictures. But it is Oelklaus's combination of these extremely difficult technical processes with contemporary subjects and objects that is truly
The title of the show suggests the singular nature of many of Oelklaus's images. In an era in which most of us understand photography as infinitely reproducible, her photographic works emerge from intensive processes that result in a single original image.
Andrew Ramiro Tirado: Open
June 21 - September 28, 2014 at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center
For Open, Tirado has made a series of extraordinary large drawings that fill the FAC's magnificent, soaring El Pomar Gallery. The subject is what Tirado describes as one of our "primary tools" for connection and disconnection - the human hand. These exquisitely drafted images represent the hand in all its complex physicality, elegance, power, vulnerability, and expression. But these drawings are just the beginning of an exhibition that unfolds over time - the artist's process will be "open" and visible to viewers as Tirado creates a new, large-scale sculpture in the gallery throughout the show's duration. This is an experience that visitors will want to witness again and again.
Andy was also the Top Prize Winner in "Art on the Streets" in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs, CO – Downtown Colorado Springs and Community Ventures are pleased to announce the selection of artists for the 2014-2015 Art on the Streets juried sculpture exhibition. Now in its 16th year, Art on the Streets celebrates the power of art in public places, while turning the streets of downtown Colorado Springs into a yearlong outdoor sculpture gallery.
A national call for artists attracted proposals from artists in four countries, 21 states and 16 Colorado cities. Artists were selected through a jury process in which artistic quality served as the primary criteria. This year's jury included Blake Milteer, Museum Director and Chief Curator for the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center; local architect Michael Collins, and award-winning visual artist Jimmy Descant. Selected artists each receive a $1,000 honorarium. In addition, artists are eligible for a $10,000 Juror Award and a $1,000 People's Choice Award.
The 2014-2015 exhibit will be on display June 2014 through May 2015 throughout Downtown Colorado Springs. The eleven artists selected for the exhibit are:
Dee Briggs, Pittsburgh, PA
Timothy D. Cassidy, New York Mills, MN
Steven Durow, Fruitland, MD
Atomic Elroy, Petaluma, CA
Sandy Friedman, Colorado Springs, CO
Steven Huffman, Ottumwa, IA
Suzanne Kane, Las Cruces, NM
James Alan Murray, South Portland, ME
Michael Shewmaker, Hilo, HI
Andrew Tirado, Colorado Springs, CO
Adina Ana Vomisescu and Juliana Morar, Toronto, Canada
Art on the Streets is a program of Downtown Colorado Springs, through Community Ventures, Inc. The program is supported entirely by private contributions, including founding sponsor U.S. Bank, with additional support from Colorado Creative Industries, Boettcher Foundation, and many other corporate and individual donors. All of the artwork in the exhibit is for sale, and purchase inquiries are welcome.
Rhythm Nations: Transnational Hip Hop in the Gallery, in the Street, and on the Stage
Opening reception for exhibition and Panel Discussion with exhibition artists and CC faculty. Includes performance by students from From Fringe to Spotlight, taught by professor Idris Goodwin.
From its roots within the urban American experience of the 1960-70s, contemporary hip-hop culture has evolved into an expressive language that transcends cultural and national boundaries. Formerly subversive modes of expression, such as graffiti, rap, appropriation, and breakdancing have now become flexible strategies for personal and political communication that spans all racial, national, and economic groups. From March 24 – May 8 2014 Colorado College will explore the ways in which the hip hop strategies of remix, mash-up, appropriation, and protest allow for the creation of new cultural hybrids within the shifting terrains of the mainstream. The project will include a gallery exhibition, public art projects, lectures, performances, films, and discussions.
The exhibition component of the project will focus on three contemporary artists Ruben Aguirre iROZEALb, and Jaque Fragua. The artists employ strategies drawn from street art practices and hip-hop culture within the context of fine art. The exhibition will uncover the tensions created when graffiti motifs are removed from lived, public spaces and realized into two-and three-dimensional forms. Themes addressed include: an examination the relationship between the self-definition inherent in the creation street art and the drive toward individual expression of Abstract Expressionism; the power of poetic insurrection within public spaces; and the creation of hybrid identities through cultural appropriations.

As part of the state-wide marking of the 100th Anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre - an event which sparked the modern labor movement - GOCA has invited six artists who address the concept of protest through their varied artistic practices.
Bradley Flora | LaToya Ruby Frazier | Scott Johnson | Lane Hall & Lisa Moline | Dareece Walker
Reception: Friday, Jan. 31, 2014, 5 - 9 pm at GOCA 1420 (The campus gallery at 1420 Austin Bluffs Parkway - parking is free after 4pm) Centennial Hall Room, 201.
Artist Talks @ 5 pm | Performance @ 7 pm
Exhibit Dates | January 31 - March 22, 2014
Historian Howard Zinn declared Colorado's historic Ludlow Massacre as "the culminating act of perhaps the most violent struggle between corporate power and laboring men in American history". As part of the state-wide marking of the 100th Anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre - an event which sparked the modern labor movement - GOCA has invited six artists who address the concept of protest through their varied artistic practices. Hailing from regional and national locales and contributing photography, mixed-media, video and performance works, the artists are, through their works, expanding upon an event that resonates heavily today in our cultural consciousness.
A multidisciplinary performance will take place in the gallery on Friday, January 31, at 7 p.m. titled "Resistance and Rebellion: Remember the Past to Carve the Future" featuring Ensemble Peak Frequency, the Ormao Dance Company, Psychoangelo, and vocalist Tim Eriksen performing works associated with acts of social and political resistance, rebellion and oppression.
Huge Hands: Coburn Exhibit by Andy Tirado
Andy Tirado, the 3D arts supervisor for the Colorado College art department, has sculptured a series of massive hands using a very appropriate CC material – reclaimed redwood from the deck outside the studios at Packard Hall, which houses the art department.
Tirado provides tech support for the art department, supervises the sculpture shop, and teaches a spring woodworking adjunct class. He also will be teaching sculpture at the Anderson Ranch in Snowmass this summer.
The four sculptures, all of which depict right hands (Tirado is left-handed; he uses his right hand as a model) are enormous – one is 13 feet long and weighs more than 300 pounds – and take up nearly all the space in Coburn Gallery, where they have been on exhibit. However, the huge hands, constructed from redwood, alder, and steel, all materials Tirado scrounged for, will soon be moved to make way for a new exhibit.

The Ben n Yan Panthers remained undefeated in the San Miguel Basketball league masters division, surviving a late surge by Team Fireball, winning 73-62 Sunday at the Yigo gym.
Danny Cepeda had a monster game to help his team remain on top of the 40-and-over division, finishing with 28 points and 14 rebounds.
Fireball struggled early from the field, missing their first seven shot attempts. The Panthers' Cepeda capitalized with six early points, all in the paint. Fireball would finally wake up with a 6-0 run led by two buckets by Manny Santos. ...

Formula One News » F1 2013 – Lewis Hamilton: Nothing Controls Me Now Posted on 07/05/2013
Lewis Hamilton hopes that people's opinion of him has changed since he debuted in 2007 as he "was in a very controlled environment".
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Hamilton said, "I'm hoping people have changed their perception of me since 2007, I was in a very controlled environment for as long as I remember and only recently have I come out of that. Nothing controls me now. I've obviously got a boss in Ross Brawn, but now I make the decisions and I don't have to report to anyone.
"There was a time when I would make a call and worry about it, that I was wrong, because of the way I was raised to look to my dad. It felt like a lot of pressure and I don't have that now. I can call my dad and tell him I've bought a house or a car and share it with him. It's a different chemistry.
"Things are great with my dad now. It didn't happen immediately. There have been a lot of talks but time is a healer. It was about getting things off your chest.
"Sure, there are parallels between leaving Ron Dennis and redefining the relationship with my father. They are both powerful, ambitious people. My dad is the head of the whole family. He's like the Godfather and everyone goes to him with their problems. And Ron is like that at McLaren."
"It's taken me all that time to get here," he added. "In my personal life, about three years ago I had someone saying things that were affecting me and the racing wasn't going well, so there was a lot of negative media, too. It bothered me. It felt like an attempt to put me in that position and it caused a lot of problems.
"There was a lack of energy, a lack of motivation. It almost felt like depression because it did a lot of the same things, sapping your will to act, to perform. I couldn't focus on the job.
"There was a point where I was driving and crashing — for no reason. I just wasn't on the ball. In this job you can't be thinking of anything else, you need to be focused all the time. I could still drive fast, but I couldn't stay focused. I was distracted. That person wasn't aiming to help me. Somehow I got through it. I no longer let negative energy surround me and I've learned how to deal with it."
"I stayed up a lot thinking about the move to Mercedes," he said. "I can overthink things at times. I did consider what my dad would feel, but I tried not to involve too many people because the call had to come from me. I went to Thailand on my own and made that decision on my own. I had two options, but as someone who likes adrenaline and excitement, one was riskier than the other. So I went with that one.
"It felt like leaving home — taking that leap. Had I stayed, I would have been protected but been in the same environment with people I had known my whole life. Mercedes was all brand new and it was all on me, to build those relationships with no time to mess around and no time for mistakes. That felt most interesting."

I normally do not play Titleist golf balls......but, I tried these test balls and was truly impressed. In fact, I shot the lowest score I've had in the past 5 years. These balls had 'orange' numbers on them? I do not know which Titleist ball these were - - but, I'd like to know - - as I may be convinced to change brands.
I believe you were playing the Titleist Velocity. I tried one in February for the first time on the back nine at Kiva Dunes in Alabama. A friend of mine gave me one. I usually play with the ProV1x, I think the Velocity is a harder ball. I didn't think it played as well around the greens, read, less spin, it felt harder coming off the putter (Scotty Cameron), but as an 8 to 12 handicap I am prone to mis-hits and can't blame everything on the ball. I bought a dozen 2 months ago and still have 2 sleeves but am going back to the Prov!x, for me it's a better fit. I find it easier to work the ball with my draw. The velocity tends to fly straighter and I leave it out to the right more, read, I don't have a great swing. LOL
Best of luck,

For the devoted fan, the Dallas Cowboys Prayer Kneeler
Rev. Archie Sauls, Sr., ordained in 2004 by Pastor Benny Finn of Church On The Rock in Dallas, has been building his Prayer Kneelers for years. He and his brothers were building furniture when he came up with the idea of building a small bench so that one could kneel and pray in the home.
While talking to a woman in a fabric store, the reverend got the idea of adding the theme of his favorite team to that concept.
"She told me that her husband didn't believe in God nor did he attend church functions," Sauls said. "I asked her if he was in to sports. She said yes, he's a Cowboy fanatic, so being there at the fabric store I found the licensed Cowboy fabric and placed it on the kneeler and presented it to her. She called me and said her husband prays all the time on the kneeler and has started going to church."
The graduate of the University of North Texas calls himself the "Master Builder" and hopes families can grow together by building the Prayer Kneeler together.

Miami-Dade College's west campus in Doral reopened nearly three months after a parking garage collapsed, killing four people.
Juan Mendieta, the Director of Communication at Miami-Dade College, said the first day of classes is Tuesday.
Four construction workers were killed when the garage collapsed on Oct. 10.
The family of one of the men filed a lawsuit against Ajax Building Corporation, Inc.; M.A.R. Contracting, Inc.; MEP Structural Engineering and Inspections, Inc.; Bliss & Nyitray, Inc. and Haryard Jolly, Inc. last month, alleging the companies rushed the construction of the garage to meet a deadline.
