Seattle's new chamber opera company, Pacific Operaworks, launches with a stunning "Return of Ulysses." Stephen Stubbs directs a dreamlike blend of sound, visuals and puppets. Review by John Sutherland.
Opera Review |
The return of Stephen Stubbs to Seattle has reached a climax with the launching of his new company, Pacific Operaworks. Those who witnessed the maiden voyage Wednesday night of Monteverdi's opera, "The Return of Ulysses," will be congratulating themselves for years to come.
Stubbs has been home from his star-studded career in Europe for a couple of years now, but those years have been building up to this project. And the staging of this particular opera is an event in itself. It comes from South African artist William Kentridge (who also has an exhibit at the Henry Art Gallery), and is directed by Kentridge's frequent collaborator, Luc De Wit. It also employs the skills of the Handspring Puppet Company of Cape Town.
The mix of arts is extraordinary. Every character has three bodies: the intricately carved wooden puppet, the puppeteer, and the singer. The instrumentalists perform on stage, blending with a beautiful wooden gallery, and behind the whole thing is a movie screen on which Kentridge provides a constant flow of images.

Most Read Stories
We all know the story from Homer's "Odyssey," with Ulysses taking 20 years to come home from the Trojan War, finding his faithful wife, Penelope, fending off suitors. In this production, the entire story is presented as the dream of a dying, bed-bound Ulysses. The mesh of images, sometimes practical, sometimes comical, often jarring, is key to the dream effect.
It will come as no surprise that the musical portion is also sublime. Stubbs, both as director and player of the chitarrone (a stringed instrument related to the lute), specializes in this very literature. He leads a group that can only be described as all-stars, Seattle/international mainstays Margriet Tindemans and Ingrid Matthews among them.
The singers all do extra theatrical work with commendable flexibility; they need to roll with the puppeteers' art while practicing their own.
The voices are all exquisite. Ross Hauck, who played Nero in "Poppea" two years ago, is pure and true in his singing of Ulysses. Penelope, the faithful wife who is not without her wiles, is sung with power and wit by Laura Pudwell. The suitors provide both great comedy and harmony, especially in their attempts to string the bow of Ulysses.
There is so much happening on stage, the eye and ear are forced into an efficiency that views the puppets as the characters, and what you're left with is the essence of the story with very rich sonic and visual textures surrounding it. It's performed without an intermission, and that's a very good thing. It's an amazing dream, and you won't want to wake up in the middle.

"Rye" Top 5 Page for this destination Rye by Rachael71
Rye Travel Guide: 94 reviews and 265 photos
Rye is a small town in East Sussex and is one of the ancient Cinque Ports. The Cinque Ports date back to at least the twelfth century and is existed as a confederation to protect fishing rights and to act as a defence against attack from overseas.
Rye today is some distance from the sea, but retains evidence of its past down by the river, where the fishermen's warehouses still stand. It is a beautiful and quaint village with meandering streets, and ancient buildings such as the 800 year old church and the Ypres Tower. It's also a good base for exploring other parts of the region.

Consider the following scenario
Start the Master, Backup master and RegionServer.
Create a table which in turn creates a region.
Disable the table.
Enable the table again.
Kill the Active master exactly at the point before the actual region assignment is started.
Restart or switch master.
Scan the table.
NotServingRegionExcepiton is thrown.
- All
- Comments
- Work Log
- History
- Activity
- Transitions
This issue is similar to
HBASE-4052 (improper disabling of table).
Following scenarios needs to be considered.
If a table T1 has three regions R1, R2 and R3
The table T1 is disabled successfully.
We now issue an enable command for T1
Scenario 1:
All the regions R1, R2 and R3 are onlined and the state in zookeeper for the table is ENABLING and then the Active master went down,
R1- online
R2- online T1-ENABLING
Here the scan will work properly but the table state will be ENABLING.(This is not a problem in the user perspective when he tries to scan but as per the state of the system this is a serious concern).
None of the regions R1, R2 and R3 are onlined but the Active Master went down when the zookeeper state for the table was in ENABLING.
R1- Offlined
R2- Offlined T1-ENABLING
Here the scan operation performed on the table will throw NotServingRegionException.
The regions R1, R2 are onlined and R3 are not yet onlined and the Active Master went down when the zookeeper state was ENABLING.
R1- online
R2- online T1-ENABLING
Here the offlined regions cannot be scanning and NotServingRegionException will be thrown.
The soln can be similar as that of
Here we have to make following changes
=> if the table state is in ENABLING state do not populate in the regions map.
=> Recover by calling EnableProcessHandler. this will try to enable the table by
onlining the regions.
Case 1:
If the regions were not onlined.
=> The enable handler will online all the regions and make the table state to
=> Scanning will work fine
Case 2 :
If the regions were not onlined
=> There is a check in the OpenRegionHandler to see if the region is already onlined
=> Move the check to HRegionServer openRegion() api.
=> Create a new exception class AlreadyOnlinedException and throw it from RS.
=> In the assign() api in AssignmentManager catch this exception and add those
regions to the regions map.
=> This will ensure that the table is moved to ENABLED state.
Here instead of throwing an exception we can add a return type to openRegion() in the HRegionInterface. Both involves an interface change.
Can we proceed like this or is there any other better way?
I don't see EnableProcessHandler class. Did you mean EnableTableHandler ?
For case 2, since OpenRegionHandler.process() doesn't throw exception for online region, I think we should let openRegion() return boolean:
public boolean openRegion(HRegionInfo region)
The patch attached is for review.(not the formal patch).
As there are changes in AssignmentManager.java unless
HBASE-4052 gets committed I cannot create the actual patch.
This patch is from 0.90 branch. Includes changes for both
HBASE-4052 and HBASE-4083.
HBASE-4052 is committed will submit the patch for trunk also as similar changes needs to be done.
Please generate new patch now that
HBASE-4052 is resolved.
+ } catch (KeeperException e) { + master.abort( + "Error deleting OFFLINED node in ZK for transition ZK node ("
Can we deal with the error in a better way ?
@Ted, thanks for the review.
We need to delete the node in zookeeper which is in offline state. Because as part of recovery when we try to enable the table , the regions of the table may be already onlined so we just try to delete the node created for that region.
If we dont delete the node, scans can be performed but if we try to disable the table it may not work as already the node is created in zookeeper.
So thats why any failure while deleting the node i thouhgt of aborting the master which is the way we have handled in
public void offlineDisabledRegion(HRegionInfo regionInfo) and in
OpenedRegionHandler.process() api.
Please provide your comments.
Shall we create an enum and use that as return type for:
+ public boolean openRegion(final HRegionInfo region) throws IOException;
so that future addition for the above method has room for manipulation without changing RPC again.
When deleting the node, I think we should take care of the following case of KeeperException and not abort server:
} catch (KeeperException.NoNodeException nne) {
So if the node is not present, then we have no problems we can just log it.
If we are not able to delete the node then? so subsequent disable may cause issue right ?
If we are unable to delete the node, we can stop the server.
I am not able to write the testcase to cover the scenarios as it involves killing the master when the table state in zookeeper is changed to ENABLING.
We can't do this for 0.90:
- public void openRegion(final HRegionInfo region) throws IOException; + public RegionOpeningState openRegion(final HRegionInfo region) throws IOException;
Doesn't it change the interface? I'm afraid this will break our ability to do a rolling restart between point releases on 0.90 (It might just work but unless you have tried it...)
I like this moving the check of whether region is online or not up into RegionServer and out of the handler.
This patch looks great otherwise. I like whats going on in here. Thanks for doing the work Ram.
TRUNK patch looks good to me. Do you need this fix in 0.90 Ram?
If you do, then I think you need to prove that a client that doesn't have this patch can talk to a server that does have it (We can't break rolling upgrades)
@Stack, yes it is an interface change. Thought a while before doing it.
The rolling restart behaviour with and without patch of 0.90 releases i will check it.
I found one problem with the patch
The return type RegionOpeningStates has to be added in the map in HbaseObjectWritable otherwise IPC error is thrown saying unexpected code.
Is there any where else we need to change. Because i found a comment in the HRegionInterface saying that
any change done here we need to change the HBaseRPCProtocolVersion.java.
Do i need to change the version ?
One more thing is I tested the scenario that you had mentioned,
The Master had the patch whereas the RS did not have the patch. So whenever a region is opened it return a null value in the master side.
So there is no compatability problem but the scenario of partial enabling may not work.
Is it fine Stack? Do i need to verify any other thing?
I will resubmit the patch shortly.
The return type RegionOpeningStates has to be added in the map in HbaseObjectWritable otherwise IPC error is thrown saying unexpected code.
Good. You tested this distributed. Funny how distributed turns up issues. Thanks for doing this.
Don't change the ipc version. This will for sure break rolling restarts.
Sounds like you did sufficient testing. I'll test rolling restart when we cut a 0.90.4. If its broken, will back out this patch in 0.90 and cut a new release candidate. I'm willing to do this given the testing you did above Ram. Thanks.
Applied to TRUNK. Thanks Ram.
(i swapped order under openRegion so we check if in transition first and THEN check if its open rather than other way round).
Integrated in HBase-TRUNK #2055 (See https://builds.apache.org/job/HBase-TRUNK/2055/)

The survey was conducted using the web-enabled KnowledgePanel(R), a probability-based panel created by Knowledge Networks designed to be representative of the United States population. Households are recruited into the panel by randomly selecting telephone numbers and residential addresses. With sampling conducted throughout the year, the panel includes about 50,000 adult members ages 18 and older. For all new panel members, demographic information is collected in an online "profile" survey. After the survey is completed, the panel member becomes active and is available to be sampled for other surveys, such as this survey on health care reform. For this survey, (ICPSR 30422), respondents were randomly selected from the adult active panel members.
Knowledge Networks provides an internet appliance and internet service connection to KnowledgePanel recruits who do not already have internet access. People who already have computers and internet service are permitted to participate using their own equipment. Panelists receive unique log-in information for accessing surveys online, and then are sent emails three to four times a month inviting them to participate in research.
More information about KnowledgePanel is available on the Knowledge Networks Web site.
ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data.

It is a tradition of the Community Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver Center, the parent organization in which the Kennedy Aging Project was housed, that student training and education takes place in a context of exemplary service. The Aging Project readily adopted this educational format.
Our field placement students were all enrolled in graduate training programs in their specific clinical disciplines; all had experience in providing direct service; and all had immediate supervision not only from the faculty member of their special discipline, but also from all faculty members representing the entire range of disciplines on the Team. Therefore we were able to enroll them as members of the Interdisciplinary Team in providing services.
One of the pleasures of advocating for and inventing services for previously underserved clients lies in the opportunity to think about ideal models. Clients who are both mentally retarded and old have truly been underserved. Their very existence was hardly acknowledged prior to the last decade; in addition, like every other subgroup of our population, their group longevity is increasing, so their numbers--and needs--are expanding.
There were several areas of intervention that we anticipated as foci of our efforts as a service project. While we could envision neither all the problems nor all their resolutions, we had some clear ideas of the kinds of services that we would search for and strive to promote.
Residential placement, for instance, is a universal need. Everyone has to have a place to live, and the housing needs of people who are both old and mentally retarded are more like the housing needs of everyone else than they are different. There is a need for security--a reasonable guarantee that one will not have to move suddenly or capriciously. An aesthetically pleasing and valued neighborhood, ac-

An experimental remote-controlled fighter jet developed by the US military has performed its first test flight.
The flight tested the X-45's flight stability and remote control system. If fully developed, the X-45 would allow fighter pilots to raid enemy targets and engage in airborne combat from the comfort of a base on the ground.
Colonel Michael Leahy, X-45 program manager at the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), says: "Unmanned Combat Air Vehicles (UCAV) will effectively and affordably perform extremely hazardous missions such as the suppression of enemy air defenses while greatly reducing the risk our aircrews have to face."
But unmanned aircraft such as the X-45 would not only make the life of a fighter pilot safer, they would also significantly lower the cost of flying combat missions. On-board pilots require expensive equipment and crewed aircraft spend much of their operational life flying in expensive training exercises.
Cheap shot
An unmanned airplane is cheaper to construct and operators would be largely trained using simulation software. The X-45 is could be stored for decades before being used. It is thought each X-45 would cost $15 million, about half that of a typical manned fighter.
A later version of the airplane, called the X-45B, will be designed to carry simulated weapons. The final machine will weigh 3600 kilograms (8000 pounds) and carry 1400 kg (3000 lb) of weaponry. Further flight tests are planned for throughout 2002, including tests involving other aircraft.
Other unmanned fighter planes are in development and smaller remote-controlled military planes have already been fully developed. Slow-flying Predator spy planes fitted with limited weaponry have been used in Afghanistan recently.
The X-45 is 8.2m (27 feet) long, smaller than a typical manned fighter plane and has no tail fin. Its engine is situated where the pilot would sit. During its maiden flight, the X-45 reached an altitude of 2286 metres (7500 feet) and a maximum air speed of 361 km/h (195 knots). The airplane has been developed by DARPA, Boeing and the US Air Force.

Escape to California's North Coast
By: J.D. Richey Journal Outdoors Columnist
Okay, so it's overall been a pretty mellow summer but the weather this week has been a bummer. When the dog days are in full effect, I like to bail out to the mountains or the ocean. This time of year, you really can't go wrong either way but I typically opt for the North Coast. Up in Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, you have fantastic weather in late summer and fall (it's been foggy in the mornings and sunny and 75-80 degrees every afternoon lately), great scenery — think redwoods meet the sea and you get the idea — plus tons of good fishing. And it doesn't matter if you're into freshwater or salt — there's a little something in the area for everybody. Let's take a look: Saltwater If you're into Alaskan halibut fishing without the time and financial commitment of going that far north, try heading for Trinidad, an extremely quaint and scenic town (the wife will love it, too!) perched on the bluffs over the ocean about 30 minutes above Eureka. Charter boats that run out of this small port have been absolutely hammering big Pacific halibut to over 100 pounds all this summer. And the fish are close in — no long runs are necessary here. In addition to the big flatties, the waters off Trinidad are rich in rockfish and lingcod — not to mention salmon. Yep, that's right. Salmon. This part of the coast is going to get the only recreational ocean salmon season in California this year, which will run Aug. 29-Sept. 7. For more fishing info, check out www.northwindcharters.net Off the shore, there's also plenty to do up in this country. Many of the rocky outcroppings between Trinidad and Crescent City can be fished from shore on mellow ocean days and you can catch a whole host of rockfish by tossing swimbaits near the structure. If you're more into perch fishing, many of the beaches in that same stretch of coast are absolutely loaded with huge redtailed surf perch that can top 5 pounds! I've been heading out to the beaches in the afternoon after guiding salmon trips on the Klamath (more on that later) and the perch bite, when the surf's down, is pretty much a fish-a-cast type of affair. Give the boys at Mad River Outfitters (707-826-7201) a call to gear up and get info on the best spots. Freshwater In August and September, the Klamath River (20 miles south of Crescent City) is the place to be. It's a world-class fishery that is on par with the best Alaska and Canada offer. When things are really ripping here, your boat may hook as many as 20-50 king salmon in a morning's fishing. Things are currently just getting underway and over the past couple weeks, the fishing isn't quite on par with that yet, but it's still been pretty solid. Most days, we've been averaging 4 to 9 adult steelhead to 9 pounds, 20 to 50 half-pounders in the 14- to 19-inch class, a few jack salmon and up to 5 adult salmon to 28 pounds. Awesome fishing by most standards, but most Klamath regulars simply call that kind of action "fair." In addition to the fishing, the scenery on the river is second to none. It's wild, roadless country accessible only by jetboat and we've been seeing lots of osprey, bald eagles and black bears. For more info, guided trips and updated fishing reports from the Klamath, check out my Web page, www.fishwithjd.com. And I've really only scratched the surface on this fantastic area. There's a lot more to do that I don't have space for here, but if you Google something like "Things to do in Humboldt and Del Norte Counties," you get plenty of ideas. J.D. Richey is a 1986 Placer High graduate whose outdoors pieces have been published nationally. Find him on the Web at www.fishwithjd.com.

That is the lowest I have ever seen it. When I was growing up the rates were 12% to buy a home.
The average rate on the 30-year loan has been below 4 percent all year. It has fallen further since the Federal Reserve started buying mortgage bonds in September to encourage more borrowing and spending.
Low mortgage rates have helped boost sales of newly built and previously occupied homes this year. Home prices are also increasing, and builders are more confident and starting work on more new homes.
Lower rates have also persuaded more people to refinance. That usually leads to lower monthly mortgage payments and more spending. Consumer spending drives nearly 70 percent of economic activity.
Merry Christms Bennie.
Why do I think we will eventually have massive defaults by the same people who shouldnt be home owners in the first place when their variable mortgages do go up to 7% or so? Are we going to "forgive them" and do another affirmative action move and we taxpayers get bent over again? Or,second scenario......Homelessness rises, people in lower income areas just give up on paying at all, and gang violence goes haywire. Not pretty either way. Ive been trying to organize a coalition for that fatefull day, but it seems no one on the Internet seems to mind that we have all these people yelling you owe me, your great great granfather promised me this and that and you owe me. Arent we tired of paying the bills for them? Im 52 years old, followed economics for 20 years, and there hasnt been a black swan event in a long time. The 2008 housing debacle was nothing. I believe Affirmative action and the excuses people will make up..backed by civil rights lawyers will bring this nation to its knees. If you watch Gangland or Lockdown on Netflix, how can you disagree? We wont even be able to pay the bill on what our "Border wars" are costing us soon.
Bernanke is going to push the rates to 1% with his Mortgage buying.
They've started building again and more and more people are cloggging the roads.
yea keep lowering rates.
Mince said:
"The 2008 housing debacle was nothing."
Where do I begin? Man. The banks sold anyone who wanted a home, having a job or not, just sign here its yours. And at the same time they took out credit default swaps with AIG.. not knowing their 'end of world bet' would go bankrupt on them.
Then as everyone began to default on the bank, the bank was exposed to having all its eggs in real estate loans. Which then triggered a bailout until the bank could unload these cheap homes to people like me for 10 cents on the dollar.
I agree eventually the prices will rise again and with 3% my chances are prtty good.
Housing sales hit a decade record!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who wouldn't buy a home with 3% rates?

The Illinois Democrat just returned from a fact-finding trip to the base.
Durbin says the goal should be to close the prison camp by the end of 2006.
He says despite the best efforts of American troops, Guantanamo has become a powerful, negative symbol around the world for failures of the Bush administration.
Durbin spoke on the same day the Bush administration said all Guantanamo detainees are entitled to protections under the Geneva Conventions. That appears to change the administration's earlier insistence that the detainees are not prisoners of war and thus not subject to the Geneva protections.

Installed and noice. My local shop needs my support, so I decided to go with the SLX from them instead of the XT from an E-Vendor. (Hey...it's just a freakin' FD, right?)
I was using an m750 prior to that. The new '09 SLX is pretty slick and cool compared to the 2007 XT. It's mated to a 2005 LX shifter I've been moving from bike-build to bike-build since I bought my '05 HKEK from my LBS. I need to check out updated upper-end Shimano shifters now to see how much better they are. This FD / shifter combo has plenty of cage and overshift to easily and quietly get into gear and settle back to center to kill any annoying chain-rub when you don't want it.
-Wide link mechanism is stiffer. (who cares...but it's cool, I guess)
-The "multi-size" clamp shims on the new Gen FD's are all aluminum vs. the m750 which was basically plastic with an alu insert
-SLX has a more linear motion (cross-ways) than the more arc'd XT. (great for a 2-ring setup)
-limit screws are angled out...easier to hit with a philips
Over all I really couldn't give a rat's grass skirt about it b/c it's just a front derailleur...but it's cool to see the technology trickle down. Smoothest shifting FD I've owned to date.

It's a work in progress!
You obviously know nothing about game/mod development.
I'm just crap at making videos. It looks better when you're actually playing it.
I bet, even judging by the video it still looks like a lot of fun. Kind of like Left 4 Dead but with Aliens.
I think he meant because of the aliens not bugs i.e. glitches and if he did then -.- :P
So it's supposed to be like that part in Episode 1?
Is the flashlight leading when you turn and following when you tilt up and down? Cuz that's kinda cool. Unless it's just a coordination bug.
those aliens looks creepy in firstperson :D

"What took you so long, Dmitri?" Nicholas asks suspiciously.
Dmitri sighed and ventured further inside the room til there was room for him to explain, "I got a little side-tracked, father. Pardon."
"'Side-tracked'?" The czar repeated. Just then, Dmitri gestured for Sophie to come in. She coughed shyly, something Jaspert wouldn't usually see his sister do, prompting the Austrian prince to grin with thoughts spinning.
"Da, side-tracked." Dmitri added as she entered, "She was snooping around at the garden."
Nicholas failed to say much else after hearing the prince's excuse and instead pardoned him, looking back to Alek who looked to be sharing the same thought as the czar,
"Shall we continue then?" Said the czar. Alek nodded to him. "Ja, let's."
later that day
"So, sis. How was your night at the palace?" Jaspert asked, biting down on the apple, emitting a loud crunching sound that prompted the nearby stallions to whine. As Sophie recalled a long conversation with the Russian prince last night, she wanted to comment on Dmitri's way of speaking. Almost as skilled in charisma as her brother, she thought.
Finally, just as she threw an apple towards the stallions, she answers. "He has a skilled tongue." Only to realize the double-meaning of what she had said moments later. Jaspert choked, so did the aging Count who listened nearby. "W-wait-"
Jaspert swallowed hard, snickering lightly and pounding his chest with a clenched fist gently as he did. "Well, can I assume you two had fun last night then?"
"That's not what I meant!" Sophie argued fiercely.
"A glass of vodka or whiskey, here and there, aye?" He adds, feeling smug. "Perhaps a cherry in there too."
Sophie threw another apple to the stallions. "You should know, bumrag!" She retorts alongside the throw. Nearby, Ernst was struggling to regain his composure, waiting to lecture the two as soon as he can.
"I was referring to cherry stems, Sophie." Jaspert added in response to her fierce reaction. Out-witted, Sophie groan in defeat and walks to a fair distance from him, muttering her disbelief under her breath. Jaspert began to snicker louder. It was then that that a familiar sight came riding towards them on of the armored bears.
I don't what what's going on, what's right from wrong and all this time everybody's telling me to be strong, you know it's hard to be strong when this shit is so wrong, wanting me to get up and move on and know that you're gone, I feel so twisted, I need this weight lifted off my shoulders, cause every day without you turns colder, and all the wasted things that get me down I feel older I was torn apart and now I'm lost and only now it's over.

Independent Institute Senior Vice President Mary L. G. Theroux was a guest on KPCC radio to discuss California's effort to repeal the "maximum family grant" rule for welfare recipients with children. Families that have more children while on welfare do not receive an increase in their grant. This could be reversed by a new law proposed by Calif.

Fulton Public Schools continue to make progress on the 2010 bond issue checklist, with the school board approving bids for several projects during its May 11 meeting. All three of those bids continued the trend of coming in lower than expected, a situation Superintendent Jacque Cowherd said may enable the district to make further improvements.
The school board accepted an approximately $1.118 million bid for roof repairs and replacement at Bartley, Bush and McIntire elementary schools from Missouri Builders Services of Jefferson City. A $16,565 bid for roof repairs and replacement from Weathercraft Inc. of Jefferson City also was approved, bringing total cost for the remaining roofing work to approximately $1.134 million — lower than the $1.358 million budgeted.

Due to an accident which broke both of my elbows, Mrs. Grouch and I are seriously considering replacing our Santana Noventa with a recumbent. One of the options is independent coasting. That sounds interesting to me, especially on a recumbent.
I'm interested in first hand comments whether favorable or not.
