"I feel each of my symphonies is a whole continent in itself," the Danish composer Per Nørgård (b. 1932) has said. His music stems from an insatiable urge to explore the phe no mena of the world and the possibilities of music, and his eight symphonies stand as milestones along the course of six decades. This recording with the Oslo Philharmonic conducted by John Storgårds presents Per Nørgård's Second Symphony, in which the composer unfolds his famous 'infinity principle' euphorically and almost psychedelically, and his Sixth Symphony, in which the mature composer proves more exploratory and playful than ever.

Per Nørgård's music originates in an inextinguishable desire to explore the marvels of the world and the powers of music. His eight symphonies stand as milestones, composed through six decades, each with its own unique musical world. This recording by the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor John Storgårds presents two of Nørgård's most dramatic works; the chaotic and troubled Symphony No. 4 inspired by the schizophrenic Swiss artist Adolf Wölfli, and the fearless Symphony No. 5, in which the composer seems to embrace violent forces of nature.
Love is not always a liberating good – it is just as often the root of human misery and degradation. Niels Rønsholdt's surreal song cycle Me Quitte (2012) sees an iconic Parisienne love song reflected in a cabinet of magic mirrors where good is turned into evil, love is destructive and beauty is repulsive. In this world premiere recording, we hear the vulnerable voice of the composer himself, together with the Faroese singer Anna Katrin Egilstrød and the Danish ensemble SCENATET.
Paul von Klenau's (1883-1946) grandiose Ninth Symphony in eight movements was composed in Copenhagen 1945 as his last major work; an extraordinary fusion of a Requiem with Latin text and a traditional symphony for orchestra, choir and four soloists. The manuscript then lay unknown for more than fifty years until it appeared in the 2001 discovery of a large collection of Klenau manuscripts in Vienna, and not until March 2014 – after a thorough editing by The Royal Library in Copenhagen – did it receive its first performance by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michael Schønwandt. This world premiere recording presents the full symphony; a magnificent opus of both tonal, atonal and even twelve-tone passages, very far removed from the style that predominated in the post-Nielsen Danish music of the 1940s.
The special chemistry between the Swedish conductor Herbert Blomstedt and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra stems from one of the most outstanding artistic partnerships in the music life of Scandinavia. Blomstedt was the very first chief conductor of the Danish orchestra and is today its honorary conductor – and the partnership is now in its seventh decade!
This DVD celebrates Herbert Blomstedt's profound insight into the symphonic worlds of Franz Schubert and Anton Bruckner, unfolding in Denmark's historic Roskilde Cathedral. Blomstedt's dream of conducting in this dazzling acoustic came true at a memorable concert in 2007, now made available for fans of the Swedish conductor and his Danish orchestra to enjoy worldwide.
The Danish composer John Frandsen (b. 1956) is a sublime musical interpreter of texts. This album presents a collection of his most evocative solo song cycles with a highly varied range of poems in delicate musical settings. Common to all five cycles is the composer's sincere and open approach to the textual expression; from the truly intimate and even erotic to the philosophical and the absurdly silly.
This DVD presents a spectacular new production of Carl Nielsen's dramatic debut opera, Saul & David from 1901 - a production marking the Royal Danish Opera's celebration of the composer's 150th anniversary in 2015.King Saul, bitterly jealous of young David, who won the favour of the people by defeating the giant Goliath, is staged in a highly original fashion by acclaimed English director and Nielsen enthusiast David Pountney, who updates the Biblical story to our own time, lending it psychological and political undertones. The performance is conducted by Nielsen expert Michael Schønwandt and presents an array of Denmark's leading singers with Johan Reuter in the demanding role of King Saul, Niels-Jørgen Riis as David and Ann Petersen as his beloved Mikal.
Niels Rønsholdts song cycle "Me Quitte" will be released on Saturday 14 May during the SPOR Festival in Århus.

Danish composer Per Nørgård has been awarded the prestigious Ernst von Siemens Music Prize in recognition of his lifelong contribution to music. Dacapo Records will release the composer's symphonies 2, 4, 5 and 6 with the Oslo Philharmonic and John Storgårds.

I heard the guys aren't allowed to touch themselves because its wasted seed but what about girls. Would that be okay?

Rav Nissim Karelitz, based on the Ramban and Ritva in Niddah 13a, holds Chut Shani on Even HaEzer siman 21that there is an issur for a woman to entertain or cause sexual thoughts. The issur is "de'megarei yetzer hara be'nafsheyhu" and not "ve'nishmartah mikol davar rah".
The reason why ve'nishmartah does not apply is because there is no issur of wasting seed for a woman. That being said, practically there would be prohibited (in many circumstances) since it causes forbidden thoughts.
Rav moshe says (even Ezer Chelek 1 siman 69) that while it's a violation of BOTH lo tasuru AND vinishmarta mikol davar ra (since it leads to shichvat zera levatala) for a man, for a woman would STILL be in violation of lo tasuru EVEN THOUGH there is no concern for zera.
So Rav Moshe clearly rules that it's ossur.

On our recent trip we spent 5 days at the GF and we noticed how much progress had been made on the adjacent DVC building since we were there last year.
I addition, there have also been some changes at the GF itself in preparation for when the DVC complex opens which should be on October 23rd this year.
A new zero entry pool has been installed c/w a Mad Hatter`s Teapot water shower.
Gasparilla`s has been totally revamped with more inside seating, with the gaming area being moved to a separate room.
The convenience shop near to 100 Park Fayre has been remodelled and now sells convenience food alongside the usual Disney items and newspapers etc.
The main swimming pool has been completely rebuilt and is now surrounded with a security fence. The pool now closes at 11.00pm instead of being open 24 hours as before.
One day we also went to the DVC preview centre at Saratoga Springs for a peek at the DVC models, so here are a few photos.

text: tax incentive Illinois Loses Office Depot, Is ADM Next? By Amanda Vinicky • Dec 10, 2013 A newly merged Office Depot chose to locate its headquarters in Florida, instead of Illinois. A Republican candidate for governor says Illinois needs to hurry if it doesn't want a similar fate with Archer Daniels Midland. Archer Daniels Midland is based in Decatur now, and no matter what plans to keep many of its operations there. But it's searching for a new worldwide headquarters. Chicago's in the running, but so are major cities. Satellite TV Tax Could Help ADM, Office Depot By Brian Mackey • Dec 3, 2013 ADM Although pensions are atop the agenda Tuesday in Springfield, the Illinois General Assembly could consider a set of tax breaks for some of Illinois' biggest corporations. Decatur-based Archer Daniels Midland is moving its corporate headquarters, and wants a tax break to remain in Illinois, most likely Chicago. Office Depot, newly merged with OfficeMax, is deciding whether to put its combined headquarters in Florida or Naperville. The deal would let the companies keep money they deduct from employee paychecks for Illinois taxes. Legislators Leave Capital, But They May Be Back By Amanda Vinicky • Nov 7, 2013 Brian Mackey/WUIS Illinois legislators wrapped up their two-week veto session this afternoon (Nov. 7), though they may be back in Springfield before the year's end. The General Assembly knocked one, big item off its to-do list: same-sex marriage. After intense lobbying on both sides, lawmakers on Tuesday sent the governor a measure that will allow gays and lesbians to marry. The rest of the major issues on the General Assembly's agenda remain: -a tax package crafted to ensure Archer Daniels Midland keeps its headquarters in Illinois is on hold Legislators Set To Give Tax Breaks ... But Not Yet, ADM By Amanda Vinicky • Nov 6, 2013 Amanda Vinicky State legislators are advancing a measure that attempts to lure chemical plant jobs to Illinois, but broader plans to offer companies like ADM incentives are not ready just yet. Archer Daniels Midland is the highest-profile case of a company looking for a tax break from the state, in exchange for creating jobs. In ADM's case, the company is looking to move its global headquarters from Decatur to ... maybe Chicago, maybe a city in another state. Heavy Veto Session Agenda By Amanda Vinicky • Nov 4, 2013 ILGA.gov Illinois legislators are scheduled to finish out their veto session this week. Their back-loaded agenda ranges from dealing with budget matters to social issues. The first week of the veto session late last month went by with little of substance accomplished. But what the General Assembly didn't touch then is back now. Like tax packages designed to keep companies, like Archer Daniels Midland, headquartered in Illinois. It also appears the sponsor of stalled same-sex marriage legislation is leaning toward calling it for a vote in the House.

This chapter addresses regularization of the People's Liberation Army's (PLA) promotion process for its flag-rank officers and the various analytical tools that can be used to predict the PLA's future senior leaders. The chapter begins by providing an historical context for the PLA officer grade and rank system. It then examines "formal factors" of the current promotion criteria that are mandated by regulations, such as officer grades, ranks, retirement-age requirements, and billet minimum and maximum terms of service. This section also provides some specific examples of current senior PLA leaders and the promotion squares they have filled. The chapter concludes by looking at "other factors," such as the guanxi system of relationships, Chinese Communist Party Congress and National People's Congress (NPC) membership, education requirements, foreign travel, place of birth, and political reliability, as well as limiting factors and other possible "tickets" that must be punched as the officers climb the promotion ladder.
The terms "rank" and "grade" are basically synonymous in the U.S. military. In the PLA, however, grades, which are based on an officer's position, are more important than ranks. As a result, PLA writings usually refer to officer positions or grades and have few references to ranks.
Within the PLA, an officer's grade, not the rank, reflects authority and responsibility across service, branch, and organizational lines. Thus, while rank is a key indicator of position within the hierarchy of foreign militaries, grade is the key indicator within the PLA. For

The search process has taken us over 14 months and countless man-hours, but God has delivered his sheperd. Pastor John's first sermon will be in June, so check back for more details.
Church members of First Baptist Church surround our pastor with daily and weekly prayer. Each Sunday they gather in the pastor's office to pray during the worship service. They pray for the prayer cards turned into the offering plate that week and they pray for the people and the pastor while the Word of God is being proclaimed.
A vibrant ministry for those who are 50 and older at First Baptist Church.
Legacy meets on the second Saturday of each month at 6 pm at the church.
Here is the information on the upcoming Legacy meeting.

EATON RAPIDS – Dean Peters and Don Wyckoff met in eighth grade.
"He was a country boy and I was from the city," said Wyckoff, 69. "I remember playing with him in eighth-grade basketball. That's how it started."
In high school, the two men were close friends. They double dated.
"He taught me how to dance," confessed Peters, 70.
"And I surely wasn't a dancer," said Wyckoff.
When Peters got married in 1965 Wyckoff served as the best man at his wedding. A year later at Wyckoff's wedding Peters was his.
The two couples lived just one house away from one another for several years.
Today, they attend the same church. They are married to two women who were childhood friends themselves.
And Wyckoff has one of Peters' kidneys, transplanted in January.
Neither of them denies the significance of that gift, but there was no doubt in Peters' mind that one of his kidneys would go to Wyckoff.
"He's my friend," said Peters, simply.
My Journey as a Foster mom: Immeasurable Love Found In Unexpected Places
by Nikki Gruesbeck
God first stirred a passion in me that I had not felt before on a mission trip to St. Ann's Bay Jamaica in 2005. I stood in the school yard with dozens of little hands reaching up to me in hopes of a hug, touch, or any affection from me. One little girl in particular would not leave my side. I walked home from school with her and nothing could have prepared me for what I learned. She was 11 years old, living all alone in what we would consider a tool shed with a padlock on the door. No bed, no window, nothing. I went to the School Administrator, surely they could fix this if they knew what she was going through. The response sent me reeling. "She is just one of many. This is life for many of these kids". Are you kidding me?? I wanted to bring this girl home with me in the worst way. Since customs wouldn't look fondly on my bringing her back in my suitcase and our week long mission trip was not long enough to begin the red tape around the particulars of her situation, our team did the best we could by setting up some contacts for her, connecting her with the local church and praying for her (and all those like her) daily. Tears poured down her cheeks and mine as our bus pulled away headed for the airport. I came back home with a forever changed heart. I could not look at my life, my children, my abundant blessings the same. I felt completely humbled at how blessed my entire life has been and how often instead of expressing gratitude for all I have I am so quick to grumble about all that I don't have or all I still want.
OAK RIDGE, Tenn. — Sam Brobst took a "Learning Your Spiritual Gift" course at Full Life Center, a charismatic church, and felt the Lord leading him to prophesy during meetings. But when Brobst opened his mouth the first time, he and others were surprised by what came out: pirate speak.
"We were in the middle of worship, when this voice rings out, 'Yar! Hear the word of the Lord — the Lord of the mighty seas!'" says one witness. "It was straight out of a Disneyland ride."
Brobst says he can't help it: when the Spirit moves upon him, he clamps one eye shut and his voice becomes gravelly and menacing. On a recent Sunday, he prophesied, "Avast ye, mateys! Hear the word from our Cap'n: No fear have ye of storms and scallywags, says ye? Argh! But I be seein' your true hearts. For I see below quarterdecks, says I. Ye be tremblin' in the face of scurvy dogs. But pay them no heed. For I be preparin' to pour down plenty o' booty upon ye. So be of cheer, me hearties! Ye be loved of the Cap'n."

Pros: Android OS and awesome remote
Cons: Super slow, takes forever to load anything.

better user experience than expected
This review is from: DIAMOND AMP1000 HD 1080P Android Media Player
Pros: 1. Android system, what can beat this?
Cons: 1. 512 MB RAM, however I don't feel much slower than other 1GB android box I tried.
Other Thoughts: The user experience on this one surpassed Minix X5 with more RAM and better CPU. The fly mouse is BIG HUGE plus. Once you use it, you will NOT go back to mouse and keyboard. Overall very good user experience. My wife and my parents all like it very much. It is not perfect but it is good life for online entertainment.

The Others Are Right
This review is from: DIAMOND AMP1000 HD 1080P Android Media Player
Pros: It's on the right track combining Android and the ability to play a long list of media types. I was especially interested in ISO playback.
Cons: Far to many glitches and 'stuttering' to be viable yet. Wait for the 2nd generation from Diamond (if they make one).
Other Thoughts: I might have kept it if it had BACON.

Diamond AMP1000
This review is from: DIAMOND AMP1000 HD 1080P Android Media Player
Pros: Android operating system (ICS 4.0.3), wireless connection, and price. HDMI video connection, sd memory card and two usb ports a plus.
Cons: System slow. needs faster cpu and more internal memory. Video play shows annoying glitches that sometimes make watching videos impossible. Also more Video formats should be supported.
Other Thoughts: Not recommended at this current stage of the products life.

The glitches keep it from being awesome
This review is from: DIAMOND AMP1000 HD 1080P Android Media Player
Pros: + Superior to the Sony Google TV 2.0 Box I just tried
Cons: Buggy, glitchy and still too experimental - here are some examples:
Other Thoughts: This device is interesting. It's decently priced, very customizable, and many features. Needs some more work. Could use more power and less app crashes. I'm looking for a device not only for my parents, but another TV in my own house that can be reliable, moderately easy to use, plays back my 720p movie colliection and has web browsing, Google Earth, Games. Well my tablet can do this, I really just want my tablet on a big screen. Seems like there should be a device which can do this. It needs USB ports and Ethernet port. This device is close, but there's some issues holding it back.

Rooted Android ICS
This review is from: DIAMOND AMP1000 HD 1080P Android Media Player
Pros: Bona fide Android 4.03 on your TV with Wii style pointer control. The remote has a pretty good keyboard, and the promised update from Android 2.3 is available for download.
Cons: The wireless connection drops frequently, seemingly strong one minute, gone the next. The device is better suited to the technically inclined than the typical TV user, since it needs more steps than most players to get media to play, and significant setup and customization to load DLNA content.
Other Thoughts: If you like Android on your phone or tablet, you might like the customizability of this player over WD or Roku boxes. The system is pre-rooted, so you have the freedom to change whatever you want (or to mess it up). I'm still learning what apps are available for the operating system, but its been pretty nice so far. The remote's pointer function is OK for simple media control, but a wireless USB mouse is much nicer for extended sessions - the box instantly connected when I plugged in my Logitech M305 dongle (a welcome surprise).

"Keeweechic's Pensacola" Pensacola by keeweechic
Pensacola Travel Guide: 252 reviews and 567 photos
Pensacola is in Escambia County which is in the extreme western end of the Florida Panhandle which borders the State of Alabama on the west and north. Unlike most of Florida, Pensacola and the Gulf Coast areas are on Central time zone. Known as the 'City of Five Flags", the history here is a long one spanning 400 years and during that time has changed hands 17 times between the French, Spanish, British, Confederate and U.S. The Native Americans were thought to have lived in the area for more than 10,000 years and the street names, architecture, rivers and creeks even reflect their presence. Seafood and timber were the early contributors to the economy and later the military and tourism brought about a whole new focus on business.
The beach areas were largely undeveloped for many decades until modern bridges were built and the area was made more accessible to cars. Today there are miles of protected seashore after the creation of the National Seashore in 1972. There are many activities to be enjoyed and many sights to see in Pensacola like Fort Pickens, a Civil War fortress which was later a prison for the Indian chief Geronimo. There is also the Pensacola Naval Air Station, home of the fabled Blue Angels acrobatic team and one of the world's largest aviation museums. We were just passing through so I cannot comment personally but it certainly seems worth a visit and spending more time.

Nice tiny page here kay ;-D
Maybe someday you come visit the REAL Florida(Orlando/Miami/Keys)....;-)
Pensacola beach is my favorite vacation spot! I just love the sandy white beach and the hot Florida sun. I usually take the kids each spring break and stay a week there. I can recommend the Holiday Inn, right on the beach.
a most interesting place, and Molly with all the money hanging down in her pub hopefully has the firebrigade next door, just in case ...
I hope to visit this place one day. Sounds wonderful... Lovely pics and great info... ;-)
OK, now I have to put the Florida panhandle on my "to go" list.
343 Days of Sun! Haven't seen that in 5 years in Seattle! Maybe that's an exaggeration- Nice pics and again, much detail in your tips.
Your page brings out some of my favorite images of Pensacola. There are so many wonderful places to eat, it's hard to choose.
McGuires sounds like my kind of place.Did Michael try the burger?

I recently received a review copy of The Gospel of John, by Francis Martin and William M. Wright IV, from the series Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture, and I've been perusing it. I'm not accepting review copies very often these days, because I found most of the ones I've received tend to languish unread, which isn't fair to the publisher; but I'd heard good things about this series, and I love the Gospel of John, so I said, "OK, why not."And so far, I'm impressed; it looks like … [Read more...]

It's hard to discuss things fruitfully when you don't know what you're talking about.I'm not speaking here of out-and-out ignorance, of people pontificating on subjects of which they know little (although there's plenty of that going around, and I'm sure it was ever thus, and that I've contributed to it in my time).

In 1948, Josef Pieper published a selection of short texts from the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas, specifically, those texts he wanted to bring to the attention of his friends so that they could come to understand the character and thought of St. Thomas. The texts (often no more than a sentence) are arranged in a particular order by topic, so as to lead the reader through the philosophical thought of the saint.

Thomas Aquinas, by Denys Turner
Thomas Aquinas, by Denys Turner, might be the best book on Thomas Aquinas that I've yet seen. It's a book about Thomas the man, Thomas the saint, and only secondarily about Thomas the philosopher and theologian. The author says,It is a profile sketched out in thin strokes of the pen, exaggerating a few features out of all proportion and omitting many more altogether. It is therefore a caricature. But caricatures do not always distort. At best they reveal the prominent features of a … [Read more...]

I always felt that toxic was an easy way out to stall/HP restore the AI to death since the AI is not that smart, lol (Such as those higher leveled Elite 4 trainers). I'm probably going to increase the accuracy a bit to poison gas. Also, I just did that for a little mix up. Just to give the game a more custom feeling. I also wanted to make less used attacks more known/noticeable instead of having those good'ol attacks that we all know and love. Haha, digging through the database, there were quite a few attacks that I felt could get more usage.

Item # SHI0349
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Clipless Pedals in stock than that.View Similar Products
Shimano XTR PD-M980 XC Pedal $0.00
The XTR Race PD-M980 Pedals are lighter, provide more stability, and shed mud better than ever before. These improvements are the result of a refined pedal body shape. The design is leaner than the 970, with all non-essential material shaved away. While this amounts to a pedal that is roughly 20 grams lighter than its predecessor, it also lessens the potential for mud accumulation.
The retention mechanism is basically the same as the benchmark 970 pedals with wide, open ended tabs that allow easy entry and security for your cleats. In this case, no change simply means that Shimano had their pedals completely dialed already. The open design allows muck to flow through, not hampering your ability to engage in a hurry. The most significant design change is that the pedal body has small, flat platforms on the inboard and outboard edges to keep the sole of your shoe from twisting on the pedal. By small, we mean four times larger than the platforms on the 970 pedals.
The XTR Race PD-M980 Pedals come with SM-SH51 (single release) cleats and are also compatible with SM-SH56 (multi release) cleats. They have chromoly spindles and spin on sealed bearings. The tension of the retention mechanism can be adjusted via a hex screw on the back of each pedal on both sides.
- Sealed cartridge bearing spindle unit for a long, maintenance-free life
- Light spring action for easy step-in and release, even in sloppy conditions
- Adjustable cleat tension settings for customized retention/release
- Strong and durable cro-moly spindle

XTR pedals are great, but so are XT's
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I agree with other reviewers regarding the performance aspect of the SPD design in the XT/XTR line of pedals being top notch. i did have trouble with one pair of XTR seals that resulted in the shredding of the bearings (2-yrs ago), but that was likely an isolated incident. when choosing between the XT/XTR pedals, keep in mind that the XT pedal looks/feels the same as the XTR, weighs only 20-grams more and costs almost 25-50% less (depends on sale prices). so while the XTR pedal is fantastic, the true value lies in its baby brother (the XT's) in my opinion.
A Rock
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Light, performant, and dependable. Not much more to say than you'll never have to touch 'em after you install 'em. I've bashed plenty of rocks in corners, and they still keep going like the day I got 'em.
Super Durable
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These pedals are super solid and give me a much more solid pedaling platform than Egg Beaters. I have never had a problem with mud making it hard to click in. They just quietly spin along without a hassle. I haven't needed to service the pedals, but the videos I've watched make it look easy. No rebuild kits like the Crank Brothers.
More durable than any other mtb pedal...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
More durable than any other mtb pedal I know of. Even though I am an Egg Beater rider, I have to concede that on really rocky aggressive terrain I would prefer these. They are virtually bash-proof. I had an older SPD for a long time before switching to Crank Brothers. I feel like the SPDs have a crisper engagement, but the Egg Beaters' softer "click" is ingrained into my riding now.
Down side is they don't have Egg Beaters' 4-sided engagement, and probably don't shed mud as well.
Top of the mark.
Had good luck with these. They don't shed mud better than an eggbeater, yet they can be made tighter like a binding which eggbeaters lack. One set I have has 2 seasons of many miles and is still tight in the spindle, no looseness which is impressive.
Great peddles
Got these peddles on the advice of a good friend and have not been disappointed. I look forward to pushing these puppies through the ringer!
Super sweet pedals
Shimano spd pedals have had problems in the mud and wet sand before, but not with these. They shed mud like an egg beater but keep you firmly secured to the pedal. The needle bearings are super smooth and very efficient. This is the best XC pedal out there.
Yay XTR m980 pedals
I need my pedals to do 2 things - stay out of the way of rocks and hold my feet on the damn pedals. These pedals do both. I read that there was mud shedding issues with this incarnation of the xtr pedal. I owned the m970 version and hated how I constantly popped out of them even with the tension screws maxxed out. I was going to swap over the egg beaters but I've been on rides where my bigger friends have mashed those things into axles. I've had a lot of things bust and ruin rides - but shimano spd pedals have never been one of them. So, instead I doubled down on the xtr pedals and I was glad I did. they stay out of the way of the rocks and hold my feet firmly in place. This is only after a dozen or so rides - but all most worthy and difficult. Porcupine Rim, Kokopelli trails, gold bar rim and a few back in the northeast. Just did a mud filled ride at Holyoke State Park in MA. Did fine. tires all burped out on me though...

Thunder radio: Network drops radio delay
Thunder fans, go ahead and bring your radios to the games. Thanks to a change in Sports Animal Radio Network policy, you can follow the broadcasts at the Ford Center. Responding to an inquiry from The Oklahoman, the network dropped the delay on its Thunder broadcasts, network operations manager Chris Baker said. The delay of about eight to 10 seconds was necessary to produce the high-definition broadcast, but made it difficult for fans at the Ford Center or those watching the game with the sound turned off on their TV to follow the broadcasts. Matt Pinto's call was way behind the action. Although HD is the future of radio, few people have HD radios. The delay creates a dilemma for radio stations that cover sporting events: Use the technology with its crystal-clear audio quality or appease sports fans and turn it off during game broadcasts. Most of the local stations are following the latter. KRXO-FM 107.7 routinely turns off the delay for its OU broadcasts, Renda Broadcasting market manager Don Pollnow said. KXXY-FM 96.1 usually does so for its OSU broadcasts, Clear Channel market manager Bill Hurley said. The Sports Animal carries a 90-minute pre- and postgame show, "Thunder Forecast," and 90-minute postgame show, "Thunder Recap," hosted by Craig Humphreys. Baker said the Sports Animal is developing plans for a three-hour coaches show but hasn't decided what night it will air.
Thunder radio network
Some affiliates do not carry all the games: →Oklahoma City: WWLS-FM 98.1, WWLS-AM 640. →Tulsa: KYAL-FM 97.1, KYAL-AM 1550 AM, KXCR-FM 100.3 (secondary). →Elk City: KADS-AM 1240. →Lawton: KXCA-AM 1380. →Muskogee: KBIX-AM 1490. →Vinita: KITO-FM 96.1 (secondary). →Woodward: KSIW-AM 1450.

Every week this summer, complaints have come in about at least 15 Franklin homes, vacant lots or empty businesses, where the grass and weeds are growing too tall.
Street department workers load up the mower and trimmer and head over to the property.
When they're done, a bill for at least $200 is sent out. But since often the homes are in foreclosure or abandoned, taxpayers are usually the ones picking up the tab.
So far this year, Franklin already has gotten complaints about more properties than last year, and they expect to mow more of them, too.
Many of those properties are repeats that workers need to trim multiple times per year.
Local governments make rules about how tall grass can be — 9 inches to 24 inches depending on where — because high grass can attract animals or bugs or weeds can produce allergens, Johnson County Highway Department director Luke Mastin said.
But mowing the ones that violate the rules takes workers away from doing maintenance around the Greenwood City Center or picking up brush around neighborhoods in Franklin, and the bills are rarely paid immediately.
Franklin street workers are going to 15 to 25 properties per week when grass is more than 9 inches tall and neighbors start complaining, street commissioner Brett Jones said.
The city has to devote two workers, a truck and trailer, a mower and weed eaters to the job all day for three or four days during the week. Sometimes the yards are mowed by the time the city gets there, but the trip is still wasted time for employees.
So far this year, Franklin has gone to 134 properties for high grass and weed complaints and the city is on pace to exceed the number of properties mowed last year. Franklin now only notifies property owners once, so the city can go out and mow for any additional violations without notice. That's also increased the number of trips city workers are making, since the city doesn't have to hold off for another 10-day waiting period every time the grass gets tall again, Jones said.
Greenwood and Johnson County aren't having to mow people's lawns quite as often this year, but they wait until the grass gets taller before getting involved.
In Greenwood, your neighbor's grass has to grow to 12 inches before they'll send a mowing crew out, and the city is averaging about four trips per week. In the unincorporated county, such as Center Grove area subdivisions, the grass or weeds need to top 24 inches, and they have done eight mowings so far this year.
Typically, governments have to mow properties that are vacant, abandoned or in foreclosure, because no one is living there and the owner may not live nearby, Jones said.
Local governments have fewer problems in neighborhoods with active homeowner associations, because those organizations will either hire someone to mow or get a resident to cut their grass if it gets too tall, Jones said.
For example, the homeowners association in Hilltop Commons in Whiteland has a mowing service come once a week for homes and the developer sends a mower out once per month for vacant lots, association president Lewis Hoffmeyer said.
Local governments most often find out what needs to be mowed when neighbors complain, because they don't have enough staff to drive up and down streets looking for tall grass every day. Houses that are obviously abandoned get added to a list and code enforcement officers are more likely to make routine checks on those, Greenwood Deputy Mayor Terry McLaughlin said.
Not every complaint gets answered immediately either, since governments need to give people a chance to fix the problem themselves. For example, the county has received 56 complaints about tall grass total and 26 properties were above the 2-foot level. So far this year mowers have been sent to eight of those properties, Mastin said.
When the government has to mow, the fees are much higher because code enforcement officers check the property and send notices, workers mow the property and then clerks bill the owner. If the owner doesn't pay, local governments will file a lien on the property to make sure they get the money, but that can take years if no one is paying the taxes. For example, Franklin charges $200 minimum to mow a property and was waiting to collect more than $42,000 at the end of 2013. Some of those bills were more than six years old.

Emergency Action Plan Guidebook - November 2014
This guidebook provides step-by-step instructions to assist communities with developing a flood emergency action plan.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers may provide help to save human life, prevent immediate human suffering or mitigate property damage. Assistance is limited to the preservation of life and the protection of public property, to include public and private facilities that provide public services. During natural disasters and other emergencies, the Corps can respond by providing engineering expertise and direct support to supplement local and state government efforts. The Corps can also assist in recovery operations when tasked by FEMA to provide drinking water, clean up debris, provide auxiliary power as well as make repairs to and provide temporary housing or roofing.
Every year, the Corps of Engineers sends hundreds, sometimes thousands, of people to respond to disasters around the world. When disasters occur, it is not just a local Corps district or office that responds. Personnel and other resources are mobilized from across the country to carry out our response and recovery missions.
The St. Paul District is prepared to provide technical assistance upon request. There are no active response efforts within our district boundaries at this time.
For guidance on building and inspecting levees, please see Community Resources under Tools and Resources menu on the left.

This collection of original essays is intended to both celebrate Derek Bickerton's sixty-fifth birthday and honor his long and eminent career.

The Early Stages of CreolizationJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1996; US$ 180.00
This volume brings together a number of studies on the early stages of creolization which are entirely based on historical data. The recent (re)discovery of early documents written in creole languages such as Negerhollands, Bajan, and Sranan, allows for a detailed and empirically founded reconstruction of creolization as an historical-linguistic process.... more...
Focus and Grammatical Relations in Creole LanguagesJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1993; US$ 180.00
The volume has as its topic, not only the types of formal constructions and devices which creole languages syntactically utilize to achieve constituent focus, but also, in a much broader sense, the many other phenomena and processes found in these languages which serve to highlight sentence-level elements.The book is organized into five sections: 1.... more...
The Genesis of a LanguageJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1996; US$ 180.00
Korlai Portuguese (KP), a Portuguese-based creole only recently discovered by linguists, originated around 1520 on the west coast of India. Initially isolated from its Hindu and Muslim neighbors by social and religious barriers, the small Korlai community lost virtually all Portuguese contact as well after 1740. This volume is the first-ever comprehensive... more...
Grammatical Relations in a Radical CreoleJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1987; US$ 180.00
With English and Portuguese as parent languages; the significant lexical retention of African languages; and the relative isolation of its speakers, Saramaccan has always stood out among Creole languages. Yet despite its obvious interest Saramaccan received little in the way of scholarly study. This groundbraking monograph dispels the mystery surrounding... more...
Kriyol SyntaxJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1994; US$ 180.00
This book describes the Portuguese-based Creole which is widely spoken as a first language in Guinea-Bissau. The study focuses on one variety, 'central Kriyol', and its main aim is to present a complete description of the grammar of the language. The theoretical framework for the syntactic analysis is purposely eclectic but relies primarily on Generalized... more...
Pidgin and Creole Tense/Mood/Aspect SystemsJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1990; US$ 165.00
More than any other area of the grammar, tense-mood-aspect (TMA) has provided evidence to fuel the ongoing debates about creole genesis and about the relevance of pidgin and creole phenomena to language theory more generally. This volume advances the debate in two ways. First, it makes available in print for the first time and in its original form... more...
Predication in Caribbean English CreolesJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1993; US$ 195.00
This is the first major study of the conservative or basilectal English creoles of the Anglophone Caribbean since Bailey's (1966) and Bickerton's (1975) descriptions of Jamaican and Guyanese Creole respectively. The book offers a comprehensive, unified treatment of the core areas of CEC predication, including the verb complex, auxiliary ordering, voice... more...
Sing Without ShameJohn Benjamins Publishing Company 1990; US$ 165.00
This study of literary themes, linguistic practice and cultural traditions analyzes the oral traditions of Indo-Portugese creole verse, as a synthesis from European, African and Asian sources.

University Health Systems announced the hiring of a new president Monday. Dr. David Herman will relocate to eastern North Carolina this summer from the Mayo Clinic.
Herman is currently a a physician leader with the Mayo Clinic. A press release from University Health Systems says Herman is the director of the Employee and Community Health Program at Mayo Clinic Rochester, where he has worked to develop programs in the community and in the public school system that address chronic illnesses and diseases.
Herman's medical background is ophthalmology.
"Dr. Herman has experience in building a mature, integrated health care delivery system," said David McRae, chief executive officer of UHS. "His leadership at one of the world's premiere health care systems will guide us as we prepare for this new world of health care for eastern North Carolina."
McRae said UHS has been moving toward a "more integrated system of health care delivery, and Herman will lead that integration." Herman is not replacing anyone; the role of UHS President is a new position.
"Few organizations are in the unique position of being able to build a true system of care to address the care needs of the populations they serve," Herman said. "I am impressed with the people who make up UHS, and I am eager to work with the team to design, execute and demonstrate this new system of health care. I am honored and eager to have a chance to serve in this new capacity."

Here's what I have:
- I load a texture from disk, say 256x256, say a picture of penguin
- I create another texture with same dimensions and I draw some stuff on it
I want to find distance between the two openGL textures AS FAST AS POSSIBLE (accuracy of the distance function is of LEAST concern).
Actually, they might not be textures in the first place. I might as well compare a region of the framebuffer to the loaded texture or do some other "magic".
How to do this super-fast?

EGO has been showing support around 11.92 and resistance in the 14.33 price range. The technical indicator at 9trading website shows strong buying signal.
Gold could have nice rebound in short term. Japan printing large amounts of money. China increasing stimulus. US in debt ceiling fight.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Would have thought japans printing only strengthens the dollar. That does not help gold priced in dollars. But that does not really matter, gold was dropping with the dollar. Go figure.

Now Doing Music Videos: Serge Ibaka
First, it was modeling for Serge Ibaka.
Now, it seems he's trying his hand at music videos.
The Thunder's starting power forward is blowing up before our eyes.
Ibaka made a cameo in Lupe Fiasco's new video, 'Out of My Head,' which features Trey Songz. If you don't know either of those two names, trust us when we say they're two of the biggest artists in Hip Hop and R&B. For Ibaka to have made his way onto the set and into the video is no small feat.
Check out the video below. Ibaka makes his appearance at the very end of the video, specifically at the 3:08 mark and the 3:18 mark. As for Ibaka's performance, well, he's got a nice smile.
Tags: Lupe Fiasco, Music, More Music Videos
(h/t to @DaBronx7)
Consider this just the beginning for Ibaka. In just two NBA seasons, Ibaka has proved he has the skills on the court and the charisma off it to be a star in several respects. The fact that he's a hard worker and he's humble should only help his cause. Who knows what could be next for him?
In the meantime, score another one for Oklahoma. The Little Market That Could continues to churn out a string of successes when so many thought it wouldn't be possible. Three years in, this town's NBA team has produced two All-Stars, two All-NBA selections, two gold medalists, a two-time scoring champ, a slam dunk participant, a Coach of the Year, a male model and music video cast member and a Western Conference finalist. This state has helped, not hindered, the blossoming of the 2008 Rookie of the Year into a full-fledged superstar with the signature line of shoes and the national television spots that come with it.
And you get the sense that the best is yet to come — for Ibaka, for Kevin Durant, for Russell Westbrook and for the entire roster that makes up the Oklahoma City Thunder. Best of all, whatever great things they go on to do, they'll be doing them right here, in The Little Market That Could.

Al fresco dining with maximum comfort and timeless style.
The Sunniva outdoor dining collection is peerless in quality. Borrowing its name from a Gaelic word meaning "gift of the sun," every feature of these tables and chairs contributes to your enjoyment of the outdoors.
Whether you're looking to stage a formal garden party, a place for sprawling summer cookouts, or a little spot to enjoy a beer and a burger, the Sunniva dining collection will fit your needs.
We form the distinctive backs on the Sunniva Outdoor Collection using bent laminate boards powerfully sandwiched together. This all-wood construction readily expands and contracts with temperature changes (like all wood does) while still retaining the strength the boards started with and the ergonomic shape they were bent into. This lumbar support and high back translate into a genuinely restful posture for everyone.
Construction is optimized for longevity and all-weather performance. There are very few pieces of hardware involved; nothing can become loose or get weak. Pieces come together in rock-solid joinery that is fully housed, meaning there is no way for moisture to enter the joints and compromise strength. Once assembled, the furniture is coated with either penetrating oil finish or boat paint in any color. Water rolls right off.
Each indoor and outdoor wooden chair by Brian Boggs Chairmakers is built to an heirloom spec and rigorous standards developed by founder Brian Boggs and his 30+ years of artisanal chair-making experience. A piece built by Brian Boggs Chairmakers is intended to last for years and years to come.
The entire Sunniva collection is built from sustainably-sourced Honduran mahogany, an exceptionally performing wood long prized in furniture making and yacht building. We source this wood from GreenWood Global, a non-profit organization that Brian helped found over 20 years ago. GreenWood is a trio of sawyers' cooperatives that selectively hand-harvest massive trees in the Honduran rainforest. The lumber is sent to international companies - like us and Taylor Guitars - and also used by local craftspeople to make a variety of chairs and handcrafts.
In addition to this dining table and chairs, we offer the entire Sunniva line of outdoor furniture that marries the best of traditional construction with contemporary comfort and flair.
All of our furniture is crafted by hand in our workshop in Asheville, North Carolina. Our master woodworkers use special tools and processes built and developed entirely in-house.
The guiding principle to furniture by Brian Boggs Chairmakers is that each piece is designed with comfort as the top priority. With that in mind, we've found that everything else—from build quality to looks—falls into place on its own. If you live in the Asheville, NC area or plan to visit, visit our workshop and try them for yourself.

A review of Microsoft's Visual Studio 2005 lists the features its reviewer deems important for collaborative development, and notes that "The single biggest missing link in IT development today, platform aside, is the lack of proper architectural thinking in application development."
Needless to say, I agree. :-) However, one must be clear on what "architectural thinking" means. For me, it encompasses three things: design that is intentional, the presence of a process that grows a system's architecture through the delivery of executable artifacts, and a focus on design and architectural patterns. Architecture for architecture's sake is generally always the sign of a dysfunctional project, but architecture as a mechanism for governing the development process and for managing the evolution of a system once deployed is a good thing.
Architectural Thinking

Cold War: Cuban Missile Crisis to Detente
Lyndon B. Johnson in Cold War: Cuban Missile Crisis to Detente
Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973) was the 36th president of the United States, assuming the office after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963. Prior to serving as Kennedy's vice president, Johnson had long represented Texas in the United States Senate.
Johnson inherited Kennedy's foreign policy and most of his advisers. Believing he was carrying out Kennedy's legacy, Johnson massively escalated American involvement in the Vietnam War.

Part of TU2 Classical Tuesdays 2 2013
Leon Botstein, conductor
Jennifer Koh, violin
About This Performance
Fearless, Grammy-nominated virtuosa Jennifer Koh plays Prokofiev's popular Violin Concerto No. 2 with its touches of Russian and Spanish folk culture. Shostakovich's Tenth Symphony, a tragic musical portrait of the Stalin years that was premiered after the dictator's death, concludes with a moment of triumph. Noted conductor and scholar Leon Botstein leads this rich, all-Russian program.

Happy with heavyhands
Heavyhands are just as described. Great to use for walking and any other exercise you want to add a little extra weight to.
Heavy Hands
I've only been using them for about a week but so far so good. They are easy to use and there are good instructions online on the proper way to do the excercises.
