Jenůfa marked Leoš Janáček's definitive breakthrough as a composer of music theatre, a genre in which he used speech melody as "the most authentic expression of the soul". Even though traditional folklore clearly provided inspiration for this opera, a blend of romanticism and modernity, Janáček wrote a score that was ahead of its time. La Monnaie's conductor-in-chief Ludovic Morlot will wield the baton in his second opera this season.
Why did you choose Janáček, why Jenůfa?
Jenůfa is on my personal top-ten list of favourite operas! It is original, complex and fascinating music. In my opinion Janáček was ahead of his time, and I regard him as one of the forerunners of modernism, like Debussy. Jenůfa can be seen as his first real opera – the first that met with success – but it is a very dramatic work. And it is also a very attractive opera because of the main theme: jealousy, both amorous and material. That powerful, universal theme – jealousy that afflicts families – makes Jenůfa an opera that can easily be transferred to a different era as well as a very accessible work.
It's a very harsh story though.
Yes, but the opera world loves harsh stories! They contain strong symbols and so people recognize themselves in them.
And on a musical level?
Musically there are fewer points of recognition, but more than in many of Janáček's other compositions. This work contains much previously written music, especially in the first act, which he wrote five years before the other two acts. The work was written in the years marked by the break with romanticism and the advent of twentieth-century modernism. Debussy's Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune is an example of a key work in that radical transition period. Jenůfa almost coincides with it. Janáček composed by placing one motif next to another, rather than relying on a musical development, yet the sound is still turned towards the late nineteenth century.
We know that Jenůfa had a turbulent genesis. Generally speaking, Janáček had difficulty making his breakthrough as a composer of opera.
He was better known for his teaching and his ethnographic research. He had tremendous trouble getting Jenůfa staged in Prague for the first time. Only after the tireless mediation of friends and acquaintances, and after he had given permission for the score to be revised did the director of the National Theatre in Prague, Kovařovic, agree to put on Jenůfa, twelve years after its première in Brno.
It is sometimes said that Jenůfa is Janáček's most 'Moravian' opera. What evidence is there in this opera of his study of folk music?
It is most apparent in the chorus passages and the dance scenes. What fascinates me is the analogy between the rhythm of the music and that of the language – which was extremely important to Janáček. (An exponent who doesn't know the language is in danger of missing certain nuances, which is why I decided to surround myself with a team that can provide this input.) That analogy makes the rhythm in Janáček's music unique. You find it occasionally in Martinů's work, and sometimes also with Dvorák, but with Janáček the rhythmic discourse is directly linked to the language. And that brings us even closer to Moravian and Czech folklore. Actually that jolting rhythm sometimes makes his scores difficult to perform. What is more, the composer sought to produce writing both for the orchestra and for the voice that is quite 'stretched' in terms of range. In a way the harmonies in his music are very modernistic. That applies in particular to the succession of chords, because – as is widely known - Janáček preferred to juxtapose short motifs rather than develop them at length. I recently had the good fortune to perform a Dvorák symphony with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Their very articulated playing, with the same strong, short accents you also hear in the Czech language, really surprised me! And it also revealed another dimension of Czech music: lightness and clarity, between a 'classic' articulation and a modern approach.
But for Janáček modernism was not an objective in itself, was it?
No, once again it was bound up with folk music. One often forgets just how modern folklore is in its writing, from a rhythmic, harmonic and melodic point of view. Folkloric material can seem complex because it departs from the usual format and harmonic framework of the writing. But the complexity is largely the result of recording an oral tradition in a script that does not lend itself to it. Consequently, the complexity conceals a return to simplicity. In the choruses, for example, there are some quite daring passages both rhythmically and harmonically, whereas it is actually going back to basics.
So rather than situate Janáček between folklore and modernism, we should talk about modernism 'through' folklore?
Yes, exactly. It has more to do with a 'transformation' of basic material. Perhaps in Western Europe we don't have that instinctive understanding of Czech music, of its language. But the idea of 'recognition' (of a certain order or disorder) in music also applies to other nations. You know, nationalism in music...
For this new production you chose the 1908 version which was published by John Tyrrell and Charles Mackerras. Why?
This 1908 version, which exists thanks to the painstaking reconstruction work carried out by Tyrrell and Mackerras, has acquired a certain authority since it contains so many possible revisions to the score by Janáček himself. We can now be sure about what the first version was like, the one performed at the première in Brno in 1904. I am less interested in the later versions. They were not really influenced by Janáček himself, for the Czech conductor and composer Karel Kovařovic had rewritten the score for the performance in Prague in 1916. It is very interesting that we can now consult the 1904 version, which contains more detail, but the 1908 version has a beautiful structure which works well, and strong cohesion, which I find very pertinent. The story ends rather suddenly, rather like in a Hollywood script! You can easily imagine a sequel to the opera: what sort of life awaits Jenůfa and Laca? Will Števa and Karolka marry? The end is both very unusual and magnificent – it is full of light and seems to hold the prospect of something... A whole world existed before this opera, and you can also imagine a whole world after it. In the play by Gabriela Preissová on which Janáček's libretto was based, the characters' family tree is very complex. But in the opera you have no difficulty understanding who is who and what the relationship is between the various characters. The story that precedes it makes the opera even more fascinating, though it is already powerful stuff. Here, too, I find that you can appreciate Jenůfa instinctively and immediately, like a good film script.
Was Janáček attracted to this story and to other family histories for personal reasons?
The loss of his two children caused him a great deal of suffering: his son Vladimir died very young, his daughter Olga at the age of twenty-one when he was composing Jenůfa, and he dedicated the work to her. Describing and exploring the tragedy of Jenůfa must surely have brought Janáček comfort in that terrible phase in his life.

The principal's payoff depends on the agent's ex-ante ability and on a non-contractible effort that the agent has to exert once employed. We find that a significant share of principals select the mediocre agent (i.e. the one with the lower ex-ante ability). When the principal is allowed to send a message, mediocre agents exert more effort than agents with the higher ability, and principals who chooses mediocre agents on average have a larger payoff than principals who select agents with higher ability. This difference in effort overcompensates the difference in ability. Mediocre agents reciprocate more than agents who have ex-ante higher ability when the principals are able to make them feeling indebted. jportal_jpjournal_00000016 2012-09-21T11:37:18.685Z 2012-09-12T11:16:29.124Z

World Team Now
- Date submitted: 1 Nov 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: World Team Now
- Submission Document: Not available
Full SubmissionWorld Team Now would like to have an extension to contribute the ideas and hopefully allow more time for public comment. We are committed to gaining global policy for renewable energy and that is enforceable and continues on the frame of the Kyoto Protocol. Here are some other initial thoughts but we request more to time to address: The 1992 Rio Summit was fundamental in making the linkages between social issues, Environmental protection and economic prosperity. We are concerned with how humanity lives in better balance with our resources. We call for a binding agreement to inspire national government��s energy policy. -The UN should be more vigorous in delivering water purification technology to those populations that lack safe drinking water. Consider that solar water purification technology has made great advances in recent years. -The UN should broker agreements with the major oil producing and mining companies to deal equably with those Nations where oil drilling and mining for gold and other precious metals is anticipated. In addition, they should employ sustainable technology and practices that do not leave polluted water and wastelands behind. _The UN could play a stronger role in dispelling the objection that addressing climate change is a drag on economies by sponsoring on the ground programs to demonstrate otherwise -- both in poor and rich settings. For instance, how about sponsoring EV charging infrastructure on the Pan American Highway to provide EV charging from Alaska to Ushuaia, Argentina, and other Next year, June 4th hopefully we all will be back in Rio+20 for the United Nations�� Earth Summit 2012 to continue what was started many years ago . What is a ��life call�� for transformation within many of us being stewards of our earth may finally become important enough to motivate our world leaders to agree on strong global policy that supports our collective environment, for humanity, and our future. It was a life changing significant journey for many of us who attended The Earth Summit/Global Forum in Rio De Janeiro, in 1992. I wish I could capture the energy in this room and bottle it,�� said Olivia Newton-John at a press conference. It further ignited a collective spark that fueled the fire inside of many activists, leaders indeed, all of us who made it to Rio, and continued on the environmental path! We all laugh at the acronym UNCED, thinking much is un-said but there were significant achievements to come out of Rio with Agenda 21, The Climate Change Treaty which gave way to the Climate Convention (UN Framework Convention on Climate Change - UNFCCC). This was where the Biodiversityand Desertification Conventions got legs. There was the Rio Declaration, for more on the history of the Earth Summit, click here. During this year long road to Rio+20 World Team Now will be focused on renewable energy and policy, with on the ground projects to demonstrate what is possible. To read about some coverage of recent renewable energy projects click here. Or be inspired by Googles solar energy goal to go viral, and make solar affordable for us all. The scientists are our real heros, and most are behind the scenes quietly doing their research without the eyes of the world on them. Several of the organization partners in the campaign Tck, Tck, Tck including World Team Now, believe in 100% reliance on renewable energy in the future. What once seemed impossible, like putting a man on the moon, becomes possible with bold declarations and commitment to execution. World Team Now will also share some of the original video, stories and information from Rio 1992 when Suzanne Maxx wore multiple hats; a speaker, a performer, activist, journalist, and videographer for Jerry Brown (who was then running for President of the USA). In the footage, we follow a VIP entourage that included many people deeply respected. Our goal is to encourage all to participate now and wear the hat of being a citizen of our world committed to living in better balance with our resources. If all of us, the people of the world push for global political will to drive towards united commitment, transformation can happen. On the eve of World Environment Day this is an invitation to join World Team Now virtually; from the past into our future, as we invite all to be present in whatever way possible next year at the reunion in Rio.

Toucan Facts
The view from the canopy tower at Posada Amazonas shows a panoramic sea of jade-green stretching to the horizon. Giant trees emerge from the Peruvian rainforest and stretch to the sky in search of sunlight. Bromeliads festoon many of their branches and some show a sprinkling of red, orange, or lavender-colored flowers during the dry season. Animals are out there too and a steady scan with binoculars or telescope sometimes reveals toucans perched in the treetops.
Medium-sized to large birds with over-sized bills, toucans are sometimes referred to as a "flying banana" when they take to the air. They glide between the crowns of rainforest trees and add color to the canopy with striking plumages highlighted by black, white, red, and yellow. Striking and exotic in appearance, toucans are an essential part of any Peruvian rainforest adventure.
The Tambopata region is especially rich in toucan species. Seven types of toucans make their home in the Amazon jungle of southeastern Peru and all can be seen at the Rainforest Expedition lodges. The two large species, Channel-billed and White-throated Toucans, are often encountered during visits to the canopy towers while the smaller and more brightly colored Chestnut-eared Aracari is a frequent visitor to the forest edge in many areas. Curl-crested Aracari is an uncommon, beautifully-colored species that is also regularly seen from canopy towers while the Lettered Aracari is usually found in riverside forest. The other two species that occur in Tambopata are the Emerald Toucanet and the Golden-collared Toucanet. These species are fairly common but they can be difficult to find due to their preference for dense vegetation.

In trying to deal with the toll that breast cancer continues to take in our country, the public has followed the lead of public health officials and increasingly put their faith in screening and early detection, though we have never had good evidence that this would have a significant impact. The over-emphasis on the importance of screening, despite a lack of strong evidence, has been elevated to such a degree that some even equate screening with prevention of breast cancer. The National Breast Cancer Coalition hopes that today's release of the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) revised recommendations will put the brakes on this run-away train and will put screening and its limitations into proper perspective.
The revised guidelines were issued by the USPSTF, a government-appointed, independent panel of experts in primary care and prevention that systematically reviews the evidence and develops recommendations for clinical preventive services. Revisions include recommending against universal screening mammography for women aged 40-49, recommending every other year screening for women 50-74, rather than annual screening and recommending against teaching breast self examination.
For over ten years, the National Breast Cancer Coalition has reviewed and analyzed each newly published article looking at the trials of mammography screening. After each analysis, NBCC has continued to take the position that mammography screening has significant limitations and should be a personal choice rather than a public health message. NBCC has also reviewed all articles and studies on breast self examination and historically informed the public that there was no evidence that monthly breast self examination saved lives. When the evidence from well designed prospective randomized trials in addition to that of other studies showed harm and no benefit from this practice, NBCC changed its message accordingly. We continue to affirm those positions and are gratified that the US Preventive Services Task Force has changed their recommendations to be more in line with the existing evidence. Read more about NBCC's unwavering positions on mammography and breast self examination.
The issues are not simple, but we believe women can comprehend the complexities of breast cancer and screening for the disease. Women deserve to know the facts and have the right to make informed decisions regarding their health care.
The Truth About Breast Cancer and Screening
There is no statistically significant evidence that screening women age 40-49 years reduces breast cancer mortality. The USPSTF now recommends against universal screening mammography for women aged 40 to 49 years. The Task Force changed their recommendation based on a systematic review of randomized clinical trials and on six statistical models of the risks and benefits of mammography screening. A major consideration for the change was the addition of recent results from the only clinical trial designed to specifically evaluate mammography in this age group. The Age trial found no statistically significant difference in breast cancer mortality between those women who were screened during their 40s and those who were not.
- False-positive results and additional imaging as a result of mammography are most prevalent in women aged 40 to 49 years. When screening is started at age 40 years, about 60% more false-positive results have been estimated to occur than if screening is started at age 50 years.
- The evidence for a benefit of mammography after 50 is not strong. To reduce the harm while still maintaining the small benefit, the USPSTF now recommends biennial (every other year) instead of annual screening mammography for women aged 50 to 74 years. The USPSTF concludes that the benefit of screening mammography is maintained by biennial screening, and changing from annual to biennial screening is likely to reduce the harms of mammography screening by approximately 50%, based on the statistical modeling, a systematic review of randomized clinical trials, a population-wide screening program report, and on a community-based study.

ZF-11442: Zend_Navigation_Page_Mvc::isActive does not work for chained routes
The patch http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-11359 fixed the issue with isActive not been route aware.
The applied patch however doesn't work for chained routes.
See the http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-11359 for more info
This issue depends on http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-11443 When that is fixed, this will also work.
See the unittest for this problem at http://pastie.org/2022127
Freeaqingme, can you check this ? Sounds to be an easier fix for the problem...
Fixed on trunk (25250) and release-1.12 (25251)
Only unit test was added.

ZF-7286: Zend_Validate_Int can't work if cache is not available
Assume cache_dir is not writeable - when Zend_Validate_Int tries to validate, it uses the locale it had saved in the cache. If the cache is not working because the cache_dir is not writeable for example - you get "cache_dir is not writable" when trying to validate.

Assigning to Thomas as he will probably look at it (if he didn't resolve this issue earlier already).
This issue duplicates ZF-7136.
It is already solved within SVN but actually blocked by the dev-team. I'm waiting for acceptance since several weeks as I was said that I am not allowed to integrate the fix to core.
As per internal discussion we decided NOT to erase the default caching. As with ZF 1.9 a migration note has been added to Zend_Locale.
Disabling the default cache is still possible with disableCache(true);

The worlds that i never said will expose me as the person i truely have come to become in the world of hate. When the world switches its exposed souls and change for a better truer outcome of happiness and wellbeing and educated minded of followers will the follow become the hollow insides of the outsiders? If one doesn't follow anyone how can she become a follower or does she become the followee or perhaps let everyone see her soul for what it is and become amazed when lupe fasico speaks "REAL" on his track and then exposed the soul of his most never spoken words that she just wrote about in this easy, but far beyond thought process of her thoughts she spoke on this track? Huh if one doesn't understand do they just judge and being understood of stood under the life of light for a littler while until the light comes to life of the underground earth shaking of an earthquake or the rain of a snow shower that might make life become threatened?????? I ask you if one man does the deeds of one dog does she belong to him? or is she forever found?
WHAT NEWs IS HIDDEN THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE HEARD. How much is being HIDDEN THAT really MATTERS. DONT STRUGGLE TO BE ON TOP you wont ever get there, , by staying at the bottom no one can bring you down. I have my crown . So i just stay here. I stick around watching everyone climb the mountain . whar they found was a big fountain and they all started drowning . fighting for the top when it was only water they were after. Tried to tell them. it was all around them. They couldnt see the top cuz there wasnt ever a fountain. Just water all around the bottom of the mountain . What was it they were climbing for. up the water fountain not knowing the fountain came from the mountain. So the mountain was just a mountain and the top was all around them, In the water that drown them.
Its so loud..inside my head. Man, this song got me thinkin... It's beautiful and strong. It's powerful enough to strike movements and strike down Speechless Come to cleveland...we need you. AkI
Wow.... this is LOVE. Your growth is massive and the knowledge is unmatchable. Continue to shine and NEVER shut up. Bianca
L'instrumental toujours dans ma tête. Trés bon boulot Lupe ! Le théme est tout bonnement parfait like Japanese Cartoon
Honestly, chills get sent through my entire body whenever i listen to any Lupe song. He raps about stuff that other rappers dont even know about. He is like the confucius of rap, no of modern day. he just chooses rap and music as a way of expressing his philosophical thoughts and opinions. "peace, and much love to ya"
Shit that he said, Shit that he said All that he said is in my head.... "Words I never said" Huh What.... Call the police there another KILLA on the loose. WOW! Do the masses still get upset when you say what they are afraid to say or do they expect it from you by now. POW BANG POP the sound of a million brain cases opening. Do the damn thang like you do. Love it & Living it.
You never fail nor disappoint ! Lupe Fiasco, you're the leader of this generation. You provoke me and others to act and promote rather then sit around and mope ! LASERS should be itttt !
Since Lupe tells it like it is, he will never get the attention he deserves, so it is up to us to go out, buy his music and spread the word like wildfire, otherwise his energy and genius will get wasted for the most part
LUPE!!!!!! I can do nothing but continuously praise the most high for blessing you with the ability to articulate your life over record!!!!!!! Lupe Fiasco... a name given to self out of ignorance yet it fits so perfectly because that's what you are to these agent Smith's my man "A great fail"... But I wouldn't have it any other way for if man was in a like mind with all one is doing then one should reconsider one's steps... As they judge slamming gavel you are earning points of love and favor and the eyes of He who matters most!!!!!!! Gloves off my brother!!!!!!! I will be purchasing this album 2 or 3 times just as I've done the past 2!!!!!!!!! Keep them coming family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -John Rich

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stacy71 Wow! Amazing lamp! Never thought this would look so awesome! For the price well worth it. i bought the lamp shade they recommended and thought they looked to small. other than that very happy! June 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by AlexandriaE Perfect! I am very happy to say that this lamp is every bit what I expected it to be. I have had my eye on this lamp for over a year and I have not been disappointed! I wanted something that would be a piece of art, and also durable and tip-resistant because we have two cats who have knocked over our thin stick lamps so many times while playing that the shades are busted. I bought two of these lamps and they are both perfect. The closer you get the more beautiful they are. They look like they cost far more than the average person can afford! The designs are both subtle and spectacular. I also really like that the switch is a wheel style on the cord, not under the shade. We use energy saving bulbs in them and have no problems. These lamps are the perfect way to add a little worldly flair to your home, while still being neutral enough to complement an interesting shade! I would buy these again in a heartbeat. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by dkendrick Punched Metal Lamp Love this lamp! Very lightweight, I thought I'd be disappointed at how light the box was when it came with the shade, but definitely not. Quality and looks good. I got the red shade and it's perfecdt April 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Me Beautiful! They are worth the money. They have a beautiful rich 'bronzy' brown color and kind of a rusty color (Very faint of course, just being detailed) where the indention are. Overall very warm toned lamps that really would go well with any room as they are large enough to stand their own and be a interesting piece but not too large that it overwhelms the space! I purchased two for our living room to go behind the sofa on the sofa table. Go ahead, get em! April 7, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Snow More expensive looking than I thought it would be... ... and although I am a person that typically goes for thin, sleek items I went out of a limb and ordered something different (chunky) this time. I liked it when I opened the box but I still wasn't sure if it fit well in my home style so I asked my husband what he thought... he thinks it looks nice and works fine - he particularly likes the cut-outs and colorations, but wishes that I had selected the red shade offered rather than the suede shade. Me again, I went on the safe side and ordered the suede (lighter brown) shade...lol. So, because the shade is very nice, I will keep it and simply stencil something wonderful on to it in a deep, deep rich red... its going to look amazing! Good purchase! June 27, 2013

Hilary Anne Frost-kumpf
Hilary Anne Frost-Kumpf Anchor link to John Martin video Professor Frost-Kumpf on what her students bring to the classroom
Meet Hilary Anne Frost-Kumpf
Associate Professor,
Global Studies
- B.A., History, Michigan State University (1978)
- M.P.A., Specialization in Arts Administration, Ohio State University (1984)
- Ph.D., Cultural Geography, Pennsylvania State University (2001)
- M.A., International Studies, University of Iowa (2007)
- I have had a diverse education and career which has also allowed me to live in a variety of places. I earned my first degree while living in Michigan. From 1978 to 1992 I worked in the field of arts administration, doing fund raising, marketing and strategic "I think maps are very important and I think every classroom should have a world map posted on the wall." management with a variety of multi-disciplinary arts organizations, while living in Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin and Texas. For the last 18 years I have been working in academia while living in Pennsylvania, Washington, DC, Illinois and Iowa. I began teaching arts and nonprofit management at UIS in 1996. These degree programs eventually were merged into the Department of Public Administration, where I served until 2005. From 2005 to 2007 I took personal leave to seek a degree in international studies from the University of Iowa, which included a summer of study in Tanzania in East Africa. I returned to UIS in the fall of 2007 to begin teaching in the new undergraduate degree in global studies.
Interesting facts:
- I am the only professionally trained geographer on campus and the only faculty member regularly teaching geography courses. I consider one of my goals is to slay the beast of geographic illiteracy among American young people, or at least among my students at UIS. I think maps are very important and I think every classroom should have a world map posted on the wall.
Best thing about UIS:
- The best thing about UIS is that its small size has allowed for the development of a strong local community of people who can get to know one another across the institution. As a small campus we don't suffer from the "silo mentality" that exists on many big campuses where you never meet people from outside your field, and never learn to appreciate the institution as a whole. Our small size creates opportunities to meet and work regularly with people (faculty, staff, students) from across the academic disciplines and across the range of campus services. These opportunities extend from small classes with opportunities for real discussion, to frequent chats with diverse colleagues in the cafeteria, to committee meetings with people from across the university. I think this creates a better environment for cross-disciplinary understanding and problem-solving and better support for one another as colleagues committed not only to our disciplines, but to the larger enterprise of higher education
Learning philosophy:
- My philosophy is that students learn best when we first meet them where they currently are and then provide the appropriate bridges to what we want them to know. Through my teaching I try to provide students with 1) creative analogies and metaphors that relate their current experience and understanding to new concepts; 2) opportunities to help them connect classroom theory with their real-world experience and contemporary issues of interest to them; 3) diverse and interactive teaching methods that cater to the different ways that different students learn; and 4) diverse educational media such as texts, maps, images, and videos.
Research interests:
- Geography, geology, international studies, the role of the arts in community development, and Africa.
Major project underway:
- "A Cross-National Comparison of Global Issues Courses." This is a pilot study exploring how academic courses in international/global studies reflect national interests. It explores data comparing content and pedagogical approaches of undergraduate "Global Issues" courses.
Listen to Professor Frost-Kumpf on her teaching style:
Advice to prospective students:
- Take advantage of all the extra-curricular activities available at UIS. This includes not only student activities and organizations, but also the broad range of lectures, workshops, fairs, symposia, and arts events that occur every semester. These events provide a broad range of ideas and experiences that will supplement your educational goals. Many of these are free or available to you at very low cost. In fact, you have paid for many of these events with your student fees. To not take advantage of these extra-curricular elements of your education at UIS is like going to the grocery, paying for your selections, and then leaving half of your purchases on the counter!

In 2011 Bertrand's Rental Properties, LLC purchased the old Lorene Hotel, built around 1945, with plans to divide the interior into four condos to be sold individually. The first step was to completely gut the interior of all electrical and plumbing and to salvage the white oak flooring from the top two floors. New trenches had to be excavated in the ground level concrete floor for the new plumbing and literally tons of debris was removed over the first six to eight months. All windows were replaced with energy-efficient double-hung windows and all plaster walls were insulated and covered with fresh sheetrock.
Many creative additions have been made to appeal to the way of living today. Each condo has been wired for security, fire, and cable services. Travertine covers the first floor and all bathrooms. There are wide, spacious staircases and private elevators in each condo. All kitchens will have stone counters and stainless appliances. The laundry room is located in the master bath area. Many "custom" amenities make these condos a true treasure for our Main Street living experience.
On December 7 from noon – 4, a special tour will be given to city and county officials, the Chamber of Commerce, and Realtors.
On December 8, the Spring Park Manor will be open to the public from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. for viewing the first completed condo. The project is targeted to be finished in 2013.

MOSCOW, Idaho – It's official. Mike Levenseller is a member of the University of Idaho football coaching staff as the Vandals' receivers coach and passing game coordinator.
Levenseller reunites with Robb Akey on the Vandal staff after having served with Idaho's head coach for seven years when both were at neighboring Washington State University. Levenseller joined the Cougar staff in 1992 and Akey was hired in 1999. Both were coordinators for the Cougars during their tenures at WSU with Akey leaving to become Idaho's head coach in 2007.
"We've won a lot of games together," Akey said. "We couldn't get a better hire than we were able to get with Mike Levenseller. I'm really fired up to have him join our football staff."
Levenseller is a native of Tacoma, Wash., and a graduate of Curtis High School and Washington State University. He was a receiver for the Cougars and was a two-time all-Pacific 8 choice as well as an Associated Press all-West Coast first-team selection and an honorable mention all-American by the AP. He is a member of the Washington State Athletic and Pacific Northwest Football halls of fame.
"He is one of the best receivers coaches in the country," Akey said. "He's a great teacher. He's a great technician. He is exactly what we need for our wide receiver outfit."
Akey's praise is underscored by Levenseller's successes, which includes the top 10 single-season receiving efforts (himself included) in WSU history.
Levenseller was a sixth-round draft pick (Oakland Raiders) in 1978. During his three years in the NFL, he played for Buffalo, Tampa Bay and Cincinnati. He also played in the CFL and was a member of the 1982 Grey Cup champion Edmonton Eskimos.
His first coaching stint was with the British Columbia Lions as a guest coach. From there, he went to Toronto and then on to Washington State.

This Is Wright State University
Named after Orville and Wilbur Wright, the inventors of powered flight, Wright State University continues their tradition of innovation. A rich and dynamic community of more than 16,000 students, Wright State is a place where tomorrow takes flight.
Wright State is a nationally accredited state university with an impressive range of study. Its six colleges and three schools offer more than 100 undergraduate degrees and nearly 50 Ph.D., master's, and professional degrees.
Whether it's preparing students to take their place in our ever-changing world, conducting research that can improve our lives, or partnering with local communities and businesses, Wright State University is making an impact, both locally and globally.
Modern Campus
Wright State, located 12 miles northeast of Dayton, Ohio, gives you the best of both worlds: state-of-the art facilities in a beautiful 557-acre wooded setting. The university's modern architecture is nationally recognized. In addition, Wright State is a national leader in accommodating the needs of students with disabilities and boasts an extensive underground tunnel system linking most of the 24 campus buildings.
Faculty Excellence
Caring and experienced faculty will help you reach your career goals. Most classes are small and taught by fully affiliated faculty members, 80 percent of whom hold the most advanced degrees in their fields. The faculty is dedicated to advancing the frontiers of knowledge, as well as applying it to real problems.
Students gain hands-on experience through a variety of community-based programs, cooperative education, internships, service learning, and research projects. In fact, Wright State is the third largest recipient of external research support among Ohio's public universities. It is one of an elite group of universities doing research in cutting-edge fields-making new discoveries that are improving the world around us.
Educational Resources
The University Library, Paul Laurence Dunbar Library, is linked through the OhioLINK system and Internet to holdings of other major academic libraries in Ohio and to a wide range of databases for electronic research. The Dunbar Library is home to one of the world's most complete collections of the Wright brothers' papers and memorabilia. Other special collections include the U.S. Patents and Trademarks Depository collection, an African American collection, as well as sections on local history, children's literature, and university history.
Athletics and Recreation
There's plenty to explore and enjoy. Wright State offers 16 Division I intercollegiate athletic programs, and many students participate in intramural sports programs. The Ervin J. Nutter Center, a 12,000-seat entertainment and sports complex, and other recreational facilities are available to students on a daily basis. More than 130 student clubs and organizations give vibrancy to campus life.
Convenient Classes
Classes are scheduled with busy graduate students in mind. Many classes are conveniently scheduled so students can attend classes after work hours, and more than half attend all of their classes after 4 p.m. The average age of the university's 4,021 graduate and professional students is 31.4 years.
Wright State University was willed into existence by the community it serves. In 1962, a group of visionary citizens, who saw a need for accessible higher education, organized a public campaign to raise seed money to establish the Miami Valley's first public university. Wright State opened its doors in 1964 as the Dayton Campus of Miami University and The Ohio State University. In October 1967, Wright State became an independent state university.
Lake Campus
The 173-acre Lake Campus, located between Celina and St. Marys on the north shore of Grand Lake, offers associate and pre-baccalaureate degrees, and limited baccalaureate and master's degree programs.

Disaster at sea is an ever-present peril, inspiring ancient legends, great works of fiction, and countless yarns of deadly typhoons, vessels consumed by fire, and desperate castaways alone on an empty ocean. Before Homer composed The Odyssey, sailors were already telling their terrifying stories, and Anthony Brandt has culled only the very best for this essential and engrossing chronicle of shipwrecks through the ages.
Selections range from Icelandic sagas to Mark Twain to Titanic and beyond: the doomed Medusa, whose survivors were abandoned to their fate, to live on only in a famous painting in the Louvre; the infamous Essex and her fatal cruise which inspired Melville's Moby Dick; or the harrowing wreck of the Wager, which left poet Lord Byron's kinsmen starving on Patagonia's bleak shores.
A riveting anthology of high adventure and astonishing survival against all odds, this storm-tossed voyage through history's gales and across unforgiving seas represents the best of a storytelling tradition that goes back centuries.
Each extraordinary tale is linked to the next by Brandt's expert annotations and commentary, which puts them in context, provides a wealth of maritime and literary background, and places this volume of shipwreck tales in a class by itself.

'True Blood' cast spill hints about sixth season
Posted at: 07/20/2013 8:05 PM
By DERRIK J. LANG
(AP) SAN DIEGO - The supernatural sex-crazed residents of Bon Temps are going back to their roots on "True Blood."
The Saturday presentation at Comic-Con for HBO's "True Blood" kicked off with a trailer teasing the remaining episodes of the campy vampire series' sixth season.
"While we acknowledge that we have a very large cast, we're going to try to condense the number of stories we're telling and really make this feel like we're coming home," said showrunner Brian "Bucky" Buckner.
The fast-moving footage showed Deborah Ann Woll's Jessica and the other locked-up vampires being tormented, Stephen Moyer's Bill wreaking further havoc and Anna Paquin's Sookie entangling with the half-fairy, half-vampire Warlow in a dreamy, bloody haze.
"Obviously, we all die," teased Paquin when asked how the season will end.
Paquin was joined for the scream-filled panel attended by more than 4,000 con-goers by co-stars Woll, Rutina Wesley, Kristin Bauer van Straten, Ryan Kwanten, Nelsan Ellis, Sam Trammell, Michael McMillan, Anna Camp and Joe Manganiello, as well as newcomer Rob Kazinsky, who plays Warlow.
Manganiello lamented that fans don't like the power trip his werewolf Alcide has gone on this season.
"Being packmaster is a pretty thankless job, except for the three-ways," he joked. "That's the one perk to that job."
Kwanten promised that the characters' storylines would converge as the sixth season comes to a close.

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Roses
Coping with Pest Deer
by National Gardening Association Editors
Deer have become a major pest of gardens throughout North America, from rural farms to urban parks. People and deer share habitat like never before. How can we keep our garden plants intact, yet live in peace with our hooved neighbors?
When trying to foil any pest or nuisance animal, learn about its habits, likes, and dislikes. It's no surprise why deer have become a problem. There are fewer predators than years ago, and many gardeners have moved out into country areas where deer have long roamed freely.
Deer in rural areas are often more timid of human presence and activity than those in suburban areas, so different control methods may be effective. Your county agricultural extension service or local wildlife management office can give you the most accurate information about deer activity in your area.
Assess your site. If your landscape is large, with many prized and widely spaced plantings, your choice of deterrents may differ from those of a gardener with only one or two areas susceptible to damage. A repellent that must be reapplied frequently may be more cost-effective for large landscapes, whereas a couple of small barrier fences could work fine for an area with small gardens or just a few fruit trees.
Vary your use of control options. When using repellent products and/or tools designed to scare wildlife, don't use any one method for too long, or the deer may catch on to your game. Mixing things up can keep them guessing for a longer while.
Work with your neighbors. If an entire block can get together to make the area unpleasant for deer, then they'll have more incentive to move elsewhere.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in partnership with Elvis Presley Enterprises will open a new Elvis Presley exhibit on Friday, November 29, 2013, in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's Main Exhibit Hall, in Cleveland.
One of the most important artists of the 20th century and part of the first-ever class of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees in 1986 (see the complete list of 1986 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees), Presley's status as a rock and roll icon is singular. Writer Lester Bangs may have said it best when he quipped: "I can guarantee you one thing - we will never again agree on anything as we agreed on Elvis."
More than 40 artifacts are on loan from Elvis Presley's Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. Highlights from the collection include a 1975 custom-made "SuperTrike" motorcycle and a selection of Presley's famous jewelry. The exhibit helps tell the Presley story, showcasing "The King" as a young man, with his official, wallet-size U.S. Army induction portrait that was taken and issued upon his arrival for basic training circa 1958; as well as the white "If I Can Dream" suit Presley wore when he performed that song during the 1968 NBC television special, Elvis, commonly known as his "comeback special."
A new film created specially for the exhibit captures iconic performances, from Presley's earliest days to his latter day triumphs, alongside a rehearsal schedule for Lake Tahoe performances from 1971.

Java Troubleshooting
The Desktop Sharing and Screen Capture tools in Vyew require Java 1.6 (aka 6.0) to be installed into your browser. It is easy, free and takes about 1 minute to install.
What Java Version Do I have?
- Vyew Desktop Sharing and Screen Shot tool requires Java 1.6 (aka 6.0).
- Check your version at our Browser Test Page.
To Install or Upgrade Java
- If you have an old version of Java installed
- Un-install it. (See "Java Version Conflicts" below.)
- Not sure of what version you have installed? See our Browser Test Page.
- Go to java.com.
- Click the Free Java Download button.
Java Version Conflicts
If you have multiple Java versions installed, it's likely our Desktop Sharing applet will not work. Even if you think you have only one version of Java, there may be an old one lurking in your computer. Here's how to check if you have multiple versions (and get rid of old ones):
- Go to START > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs (in Windows). This will list all of your programs. You will see something like "Java(TM) 6 update 17″. Uninstall all but the newest one. (Don't worry, if you need the old versions, you can reinstall them here).
- Don't celebrate yet—you probably still have the old Java files on your computer, but your computer doesn't realize it. Check C:\Program Files\Java (in Windows). There you will see the folders that hold all of the Java Files. You should have one or two, but you may very well see three or four. You should have jre6 or jre1.6.0_<version> or both. Anything more and you have multiple versions of Java. To get rid of them, just delete the folders that aren't jre6 and the latest jre1.6.0_<version>. If you still need the old versions, create another folder, e.g. "old_java_versions", and put them in there. You may need to relink these versions to the programs that use them. Our desktop sharing program will see then only the one version of Java.
Rarely, this may fail. You will then need to repeat steps 1 and 2 and uninstall and delete all of your Java versions, restart your computer, and reinstall the latest Java version from java.com.
Accepting the Java Security Notice
During your first run of either Desktop Sharing or Screen Capture, you may see a Java Security Notice, which will ask you if you want to run the Vyew Applet. Click Run or OK, to continue. If you do not accept this notice the Vyew features will not work. You will need to refresh or restart your browser and try again.
Still doesn't work?
- Vyew tends to be a bit more thoroughly tested on Mozilla Firefox. Try it if you're not already.
- Contact Supportand let us know:
- Each step you took.
- Any exact error messages you received.
- What browser version and operating system you are using.

Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano defends offensive line play
Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano has heard the criticism, evidently. And today after his post-practice press conference, he responded. The message: The Dolphins' offensive line isn't in as bad of shape as fans and media are making it out to be.
The line struggled in a 17-13 preseason loss on Saturday night at Tampa Bay. And it struggled in all areas. The Dolphins allowed five sacks and, equally disappointing, they couldn't run. But Sparano preached patience here on Monday.
He said:
"Now your watch and my watch are two total different things, OK. In other words, your watch is one where I think you guys think that this can happen overnight, OK. My watch doesn't say that, OK. This takes a long time to get a line prepared to play and defensive lines will be way further ahead than offensive lines, OK."
If it reads like Sparano was a bit fired up, well … that's because he was.
He continued:
"Our defensive line will be further ahead than other offensive lines, OK. Because it takes that much time, never mind moving parts, you know – bringing in a new center, put a new center in there. You know, a right tackle coming in and Vernon[Carey] going to guard, that – although not easy, OK – isn't the grandest piece.
"It is really the center that moves in there and the young guys goes in there and he's done a nice job right now. But you're asking guys to play different positions, and we haven't had the left tackle out there until the last couple days, which has been good to see."
Sparano's message was simple enough: Relax. These things take time. The line will be fine.
Even so, the topic kept on coming up throughout his meeting with reporters. Sun-Sentinel colleague Omar Kelly asked Sparano at one point about when he'd reach the point of feeling comfortable with what he sees from the line.
Sparano said:
"I can't answer that question. I don't really know. I mean, it's not on the calendar here. I mean, I don't really know. It could be – I hope it's going to be here in the next couple days, OK, where you feel really comfortable. I personally feel very comfortable right now. I mean, these guys have played a couple good games. We didn't play good the other night up front, OK, but I personally feel like this group has come out here and practiced and shown me plenty to get ready to play for the season."
So there you have it. While Dolphins fans and media members have been critical about the progress of the offensive line, it's clear that Sparano has a different opinion. He said, "I'm pretty confident with where that group is right now."

Longitude: 100.3165 deg.
Latitude: 41.3088 deg.
First Launch: 1966.12.26.
Last Launch: 1971.03.03.
Number: 5 .
On the morning of April 24, 1970, the first and second stages of CZ-1 were loaded with propellant and stacked. The satellite was mated to the spin-stabilized solid-propellant third stage, and the launcher entered the final eight hours of launch preparation. Weather forecast for the launch at 9:30 p.m. called for clouds at above 7,000 meters and a wind speed of less than 4 to 5 meters per second.
The historic launch came at 9:35 p.m. local time (13:35 UTC). Upon hearing the command "ignition", a launch controller pressed the button to start the rocket engines. The three-stage CZ-1, which was 29.46 meters tall and had a maximum diameter of 2.25 meters, lifted off the launch pad with a thrust of 104 tonnes. Liftoff weight of the CZ-1 was 81.5 tonnes. Rocket expert Shen Jianan recounted that "..as soon as I saw the liftoff on the TV screen inside the bunker, I ran outside. I could only see the beautiful rocket lighting up the night sky and streaking towards the southeast. I ran back inside to listen to the transmissions. Broadcasting on the speaker were status reports like 'capturing target', 'nominal tracking', 'nominal flight', 'nominal second and third stage separation'..." Thirteen minutes after launch, at 9:48 p.m., mission control announced "...satellite and rocket stage separation, satellite enters orbit...the bunker was filled with cheers".
China became the fifth nation after the former Soviet Union, the United States, France and Japan to achieve an indigenous space launch capability. At 9:50 p.m., the National Broadcasting Bureau announced the acquisition of the tune 'East is Red' from the satellite loud and clear. In the following days, the People's Central Broadcasting radio and newspapers in Beijing announced and printed worldwide times of DFH-1 and CZ-1 third stage passages, and directions of travel in the sky. Senior officials in Beijing dispatched a chartered plane to JSLC to bring back Qi and other scientists. In the International Labour Day celebration on May 1, Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou warmly welcomed them at the Tiananmen Square.

Rated 3 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by KellieinNapa Beautiful, nice weight & durable Felt compelled to write a review to counter-balance the review raising concern about these utensils going in the dishwasher. I purchased a set of 200 of these for use in a small business catering application. We've been using them daily (and dishwashing) for over a year and we've not experienced any of the spotting. The only thing I will say is that the knife has a very broad surface area, so it needs to be given a quick polish to wipe away water marks. Otherwise, these are beautiful and have a nice weight. Our guests love them. April 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by melindascott Unique, high-quality flatware set Love the rustic design of the Twig flatware. It reminds me of a similar set for sale at the Sundance Catalog, except these are dishwasher safe (an obvious must). The quality is great and they have a nice weight to them. February 12, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Emily22 Cool silverware- but don't put in the dishwasher! I bought a whole set of this silverware. A little expensive but I figured it would last me a long time, they look SO good and are very heavy and sturdy and longer than normal silverware which I liked. Sadly, I ran them in the dishwasher as soon as I got home, as it says they are "dishwasher safe". When they came out the handles were ruined on about half of them- like the paint on the handle was chipping off or something and they had white spots all over. I bought them at the store, but I see online it says to rub oil on them. Seems like a bit of work but I guess you could try your luck with that, or maybe just hand wash them. Overall they are really cool looking and sturdy- I just suggest not putting them through the dishwasher! August 5, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Ann13 Rusty Twigs Some of the forks rusted within one wash. Others within the first month. Waste of money! November 16, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Reza Rust These look beautiful, but after washing once, many pieces had rust. Unsafe to eat with. September 26, 2015
