It's summer and it's hot, we know. However, every time is cheese time.
We went to Liberty Heights Fresh late last week to crack a wheel of Cravero Parmigiano-Reggiano. Exclusive to Liberty Heights Fresh in the western states, Cravero is hand tested by Giorgio Cravero, a fifth generation cheese ager from the Piedmont region of Italy. Since 1855 the Cravero family have been selecting and maturing the finest cheeses.
Each wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano carries proof of its authenticity. During production, the future rind is impressed with the number of the cheese house, production date and pin dots forming the words "Parmigiano Reggiano." The pin dots guarantee that the cheese was made under regulation of the Consorzio del Formaggio Parmigiano Reggiano.
After one year of aging, each wheel that passes the test is branded with an oval certification mark and left to finish aging.
And cutting this cheese is not a simple task as it may sound. Not everyone can do it, and it's considered to be an art. Five different knives are used in this process, so the internal structure and texture are left intact. All the care is not enough.
Even though the curator has already cracked the wheel of Cravero Parmigiano-Reggiano, you can still grab a bite at Liberty Heights Fresh.

Dear leJOS developers,
First of all a huge thank you for your work on LeJos!
I'm a student of computer science at the University of Paderborn in Germany. (www.upb.de) With Lego NXT bricks we shall realize a high rise rack repository that was previously built using RCX bricks. We had great plans on how to implement the project, unfortunately we noticed yesterday that the bluetooth functionality of Lejos is still in its early stages.
That's why I'd like to ask if you could please supply us a pre-release build of your upcoming Lejos build.
Sincerely yours,
PS: Feel free to contact me via e-mail should there be any questions..

What does the term limb of the earth (see this question, for example) or atmospheric limb mean? The phrase strikes me as very odd, since earth is nearly spherical. Do other planets with atmospheres also have a limb?
The etymology of limb for an astral object comes from the original Latin root. Limbus means border in Latin, a language in which all good students of last centuries were proficient, including astronomers; when describing heavenly bodies viewed through the telescopes they shortened it to limb.
Now limb as an appendage of a body or tree has a different etymology in English. It comes from Middle English lim and acquired the "b" later.
The limb of the Earth is simply the horizon, or the edge of the Earth at the horizon, especially if you see it from a spacecraft. When you also explicitly see the thin layer near the horizon corresponding to the atmosphere, it's the atmospheric limb.
There's no problem with the Earth's being spherical because the spherical symmetry is respected by both phrases containing "limb". On the other hand, the "limbs" are limb-like because in the one-dimensional model of the Earth where the altitude is the only coordinate, the limb (in both senses) is at the end point, much like hands and feet are "end points of a body".

Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 32 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by SouthsideMom Love It! Ordered a pair of these chairs. I received them a couple of days ago. I really cannot say enough good things about the chair. The color is beautiful, just as shown. There's definitely some green to it. The fabric is a lovely velvet. Very nice to the touch. It is sturdy and well built. Extremely easy to attach the legs. Very happy with the purchase. November 22, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Linzee222 gorgeous chair! This chair is the first new piece of furniture I've purchased in years. The moment I laid eyes on it, I knew it was for me. I ordered it within an hour of seeing the listing. What can I say? I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. It is such a unique color to pair with the traditional Wingback silhouette. Note- the color is actually slightly different than the photo. It's more of a dusky teal. In low lighting it looks darker, not as bright. My only minor criticism is this: I do wish the manufacturer had put different labels on each leg. They all came with the same label. Front and back were easy to figure out just by looking at the photo. But I struggled with left and right front for a while. I was actually putting them on in the wrong place--and I'm good at assembly. Fortunately, I didn't break anything, and I was able to get the legs on in the correct spots. Overall, I have to give this a top rating. I am more than happy with my chair! October 20, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Shelle Perfect Living Room Chair A year ago, I bought one from the store, which I've loved and receive complements on all the time. A couple weeks ago, I decided I wanted another to match. Very hopeful, I went on line, found it on sale and ordered. It arrived a week or so later and in great shape. I was concerned that the colors might not be a match, but they were identical. The only issue was that the fabric had wrinkles in a few places where it was gathered ...not as smoothly made as the original. But not worth returning or complaining about. Probably wouldn't even notice it if the first one weren't completely smooth. These chairs are firm... not cozy or soft. Probably not a chair you'd want to sit in for lengths of time... but they seem well made, the fabric has held up over the year,look great, color is terrific an just as pictured. I'd definitely recommend! August 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Winnie Love this chair! Size and scale is exactly what I had been looking for. I have it placed on hardwood floors, and it will not easily slide around like some chairs that are less substantial. As for the color.... I would call it "teal", which is what I had been looking for in the perfect accent chair. It is not too green as some have mentioned, but certainly not a denim blue. Other chairs that I have been looking at that are considered teal have been more "turquoise", but this I would say is the perfect teal. Delivery was super fast, packaging was great, and assembly was simply attaching the legs. August 6, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Maggi22 This chair is fabulous I ordered 2 chairs in a charcoal gray. I put them in my living room and purchased small lumbar pillows.in a black and white Zebra print.. It looks amazing and friends and family love sitting in it. with or without a small pillow this chair is extremely comfortable for myself alone or with my 8 lb Chi. I have a 29" round table between them with a large lamp, books, a clock, and a vase full of red roses. It all looks beautiful! A great value.... March 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by jkmm Love this chair I purchased this in store a few weeks ago after eyeing it online for weeks. I am very pleased with my purchase. I had a coupon on top of the sale price, so i feel i got a great deal, as this would have cost quite a bit more anywhere else. The color is very pretty, the nailhead detail is a nice touch. I thought it would look more blue in person, but it is definitely teal. Buy it. You will not be sorry :) January 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Pamela42 A beautiful chair I am so pleased with my new chair! It meets all of my expectations. December 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sara74 LOVE THESE CHAIRS! I wanted to have a bright living room with a lot of color. I was eying these chairs - love the style - from the curvy silhouette, brass grommets, and beautiful blue color. Not only are they pretty, they have a nice deep seat, so they are comfortable and affordable. They are the perfect "statement chairs" to go with my white couch with colorful pillows! I get A LOT of compliments on these chairs. All the throw pillows are also from World Market - Love them too!!! Thank you World Market for allowing me to stay in budget and get the living room that I wanted!!! October 26, 2014

Straighten Up and Fly Right – The Nat King Cole Tribute by Ramsey Lewis & John Pizzarelli
Photo Credit: Ravinia Festival / Jimmy Katz
Great Hall (Directions & Parking)
$65 / $55 / $40 / $25
Sat., April 26 - 8:00 PM
Nat King Cole broke the pop barrier with his smoky, smooth vocals, stringing along a huge number of solid hits right after his first "Straighten Up And Fly Right" soared up the charts in 1943. As a singer, he was called "the best friend a song ever had," but he was essentially a jazz performer at heart. Even those later tracks crafted for the pop charts belie a piano technique, vocal phrasings, and on-the-mark orchestration that are indebted to his early roots in jazz. Ramsey Lewis and John Pizzarelli have crafted a tribute to the titan of fifties vocal pop, from his hits along with those singular tracks of sophisticated cool jazz that have influenced their own careers.
"Pizzarelli remains a master of Nat King Cole cool, swinging such standards as 'Just In Time.'" –The Seattle Times
"It's a mark of how much Lewis understands what people want from a piece of music that he remains one of jazz's most broadly popular figures, yet still holds on to an unshakeable degree of respectability." –BBC

Haribo is a brand of gummies that I'm always excited to try. What's difficult is that since they're a European company/brand/candy, we don't get the full selection here in the US. I sometimes tease myself by looking at their German website and the vast selection of candies they offer. I want to try them all! But sadly, unless I take a trip to Germany, I will have to wait and just hope I will come across there domestically someday. I found these Haribo Tropifrutti in Cost Plus World Market, one of the few places I can find imported Haribo products. I was excited about this find since this is a variety I haven't seen before, so something new finally! Hooray!
Texture is interesting. It's kinda like a fruit pare inside a jelly bean, with a hard outside and a smooth jelly interior.
Red: Fruity and jammy. It reminds me of a raspberry Popsicle.
Dark Red: This one tastes more herbal and fruity, but not in any distinct way. Just "red".
Green: Lightly watermelon flavored and that fake, juicy watermelon flavor.
White: Pineapple, bright, juicy and zesty. This flavor is spot on.
Yellow: Oddly enough, this is the most realistic banana flavor in a candy that I've ever tasted. It's captured the starchy smooth feel of a banana perfectly. It's sweet and have that sweet flavor we recognize as banana. Well done.
Orange: Yay, this one held no real surprise. It's a mild, sweet, juicy orange flavor. Not too overdone, but not too mild.
Overall, I liked these flavors. They're different from the typical tropical flavors you get here in the USA and I appreciate having something different. I was really impressed with the banana flavor, so that alone makes this package a winner for me. I also shared these with my boyfriend and friends, and they all liked them and were impressed with the texture. If you're looking for something different, these are a great gummi treat to have if you're trying to feel that thrill of flavor discovery.
Rating: Will Buy Again

DANC 108: Dance History: Dancing - The Pleasure, Power, and Art of Movement
Thank you for your interest in Dance History 108.
Before our course begins online in January of 2014, I want to provide you with some information about the class and instructor.
Access Requirements:
No mandatory campus visits are required to take this course. The course, however, is NOT a self-paced course but an online community of learners working through a 17-week semester. It unfolds week-by-week with the whole class participating in weekly exercises and discussions together. This is NOT an independent studies course. This Dance History course is three units so you will have to log on at least 3 separate days a week for a minimum of six hours weekly to work in the course. You can pick whichever days and times suit you. A new week of course content with assignments is released every two weeks.
Students should always access the class web site in Moodle via MyCOM. For information about getting a MyCOM account, read the FAQ's on the MyCOM Portal login page. #7 on the Portal login page explains how to get to Moodle.
First Day of Class Instructions:
All enrolled students are required to login to the class Moodle website the first week of the semester in order to hold a place in this class. There will be a set of questions I would like you to answer in the first week of the course. It is a mandatory quiz regarding the class and the site itself called the START UP QUIZ to access your computer skills and your ability to navigate the class webpage. If a registered student does not login to the class site during the first week, that spot may be given to the next student on the waitlist. (The waitlist is long and there is a shortage of class spots to meet the demand; so know that I will honor the waitlist if you do not confirm your spot and begin the course as required.)
Waitlist & Add Codes:
If you are on the waitlist or attempting to add the course, email the instructor at firstname.lastname@example.com as soon as possible to indicate your desire to take the course and to receive course start up information. Please include your name, the section number of the class you wish to add, and your COM Student ID (if you have one) in your email. Please include the title of your email in the subject line . I do honor the official waitlist, adding students in the order they appear on the list. I will provide you with an ADD CODE in order to register for the class the first week.
Course Materials
Required: Dancing
The Pleasure, Power and Art of Movement by Gerald Jonas. Publisher: Harry N. Abrams (September 15, 1998)
Language: English
You will need this text to complete the first assignment. Please plan ahead so you don't miss it due to lack of materials.
Book Purchases:
Students may purchase their books online by visiting COM's online bookstore, or students may buy the books at the COM campus. Please purchase the editions listed, since content and pagination in old editions of texts do not match with course assignments. The quizzes and assignments are based on specific text passages.
What To Do When You First Access The Course Online:
Be advised that Moodle works best with Firefox or Internet Explorer. Not all features function with Safari for Mac users. If you run into any technical problems, check your browser using the helpful information at the following link: http://ilearn.csumb.edu/BrowserTestFiles/index.php
Take some time to familiarize yourself with these 2 helpful Moodle FAQs for students and bookmark them for future reference:
Finally, there is an important note that you should read and heed at the top right of your Moodle home screen: "Closing this browser does not end your session. In order to end a session you must click on Logout (top right side of browser window). If you do not log out, your session will remain active. The next person to use this computer will have full access to your account." Make yourself a sticky note to remind yourself to log out!
I hope this email answers most of your questions. If you have others, please email me. This is an exciting course and includes eight unique videos of many dance cultures and these videos correlate to each chapter in the text. Assignments include a choice of questions from the text, videos and a discussion board with other students in the course.
I look forward to a wonderful adventure in the discovery of the history of dance all over the world. I have been teaching in the College of Marin dance department since 1975 and teaching various forms of Dance History for several years now. This is one of the most exciting courses in dance that I have experienced. I hope that you will agree.
Have a successful semester!

I have been teaching 8th grade Faith Formation classes for five years and have seen a decline in number of students attending. I would like to implement some kind of program with parents since they have the responsibility of making sure their child receives their Catholic faith. Has anyone done something like this or have any ideas?
Unknown, our parish has what they call "Whole Community Catechesis" to promote lifelong faith formation. About 6 times a year we have intergenerational gatherings with age-appropriate breakout sessions. I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but it's pretty popular in our church. And a question of my own -- I am looking for a Catholic daily devotional that I can read with my 13-year-old daughter. All I can seem to find are geared toward middle-aged women (like me!) or are too evangelical for my comfort. Is there anything out there for Catholic girls?
Yes, my husband is Catholic (not sure how that pertains to my question, though). I have a couple of Christian devotionals that are okay but are not really what I am looking for -- they use different Biblical translations (e.g., KJV, NLT), never mention the saints, and seem a bit shallow to me. I just want something I can read with my daughter without having to discuss nuances and interpretations at length.
Have you tried The Word Among Us @ wau.org for the daily devotional?
Hi there! My 4th child is 3 1/2 and cannot hold a pencil. The others didn't have this issue so I didn't have to teach it. I keep trying to show him but he can't seem to get it. Any advice?
UNKNOWN: My sister's parish used a program of family catechesis called Generations of Faith. It might be worth checking into. I think a huge problem with children failing to come for parish-based religious education is that their own parents are poorly catechized themselves. ANNE IN NC: Have you tried using the Magnificat with your daughter? I have several friends who used it & really love it. We use a monthly journal/devotional called Theosis: Spiritual Reflections from the Christian East, put out by Eastern Christian Publications. Our teens (13, 15, 17) like it. KMB: One of our sons has an odd(?) way of holding his pencil, but he has nice penmanship...so I don't worry too much about it. As a leftie, I was always being told that I was holding my writing utensil incorrectly. Since your little guy is just 3 1/2, I think you still have plenty of time to work on his pencil grasp. Have you tried one of those triangular rubber pencil grips? I recall children using those when we were young.
KMB, a couple of my children struggled with their pencil grip. Our kindergarten teacher introduced us to a rubber grip that slides on to the pencil. It is triangular in shape, with special indentations to show where you rest the fingers--and that helps the kids to figure out the right grip. She gave us the first one, but I have since seen them at many places--not just education supply stores, but I think on the counters at a couple bookstores too. They're inexpensive--maybe $2-3? That would be my suggestion--if you can find it.
KMB, some children, boys especially, learn to hold a pencil later than others. Three and a half seems pretty young to expect good pencil grip. I actually asked a friend who teaches special ed for advice on how to get my son who will start Kindergarten this fall to hold a pencil correctly and she suggested time and a thick pencil. My husband bought him Legos to work on his fine motor skills and between that and the thick pencil, he's doing a lot better.
KMB - We dealt with this with our youngest son. We bought extra short pencils from Handwriting Without Tears. It's much easier to maintain the right grip on a short pencil. A homeschooling blog recommended cutting paint brushes and crayons down to about two inches. This definitely helped us.
Thanks for the suggestions! I know he's still young but if he's got fine motor skill issues, the sooner I work with him the better.
Anne, when I was 13 my mom gave me a little booklet called "The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary". I loved it! I was like a shorter version of the Divine Office. I would say one of the little hours whenever I had a few minutes free. I don't know where you would find it today but you could google it or try amazon. It would be really nice to say with your daughter.

On a website, you have about ten seconds (maximum) to make an impression on your visitor that will decide whether they stay or not. In a short story, as far as my experience is concerned, it is just the first sentence.
Simple as they may seem, short stories are as complicated and as challenging to write as a novel, mainly because they tell us the same story in a smaller area, with fewer words and without leaving out details.
This really means that not everybody can write short stories that will hold its readers for long.
Below I present five tips that I, having written many short stories all of which have got great reviews and readership, believe any short story writer needs to keep in mind while building that brilliant piece. Continue reading

About Me Bookworm

Comments about National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of Western North America:
I identified a black throated sparrow immediately when it skipped aroung my yard the other day. The book is laid out to be easily read and goes to the point. I understand other birdbooks are much more heavily detailed but they seem to be written for specialists in ornithology not the general reader looking for advice on their garden friends. I am going to get a copy for the local library to add to their current reference works for the use of the general library user.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Boulder Parks department Plan for the Future, but will it include Cyclists?
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Tensions are growing over how Boulder Parks department has been handling the issue of bike access and in particular Valmont Bike Park. Challenges in hosting an event or even allowing Middle School kids to practice at the park can be a monumental effort to do legally. It will be interesting if the city will support a changing demographic in recreation or will it stick with that nations normal culture.
From the Daily Camera
"We want to really identify what the community wants balanced with the limited resources that we have," Parks and Recreation Director Kirk Kincannon said.
Officials have held several public meetings, conducted a community survey and hired a consultant to help compare Boulder's parks amenities to other similar communities.
The Boulder City Council will give feedback on the master plan and parks priorities during a study session Tuesday, but that won't be the end of the process.

Curetis will provide Cempra with clinical sample testing on its Unyvero™ molecular diagnostic system for use as part of the latter's pending Phase III trial evaluating an oral formulation of its solithromycin antibiotic in patients with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. The comparator-based solithromycin study will enroll over 800 patients at over 100 clinical sites worldwide, and is expected to start before the end of this year.
Sputum samples from patients will be sent to Curetis for analysis on the recently CE-marked Unyvero system and Unyvero P50 pneumonia application cartridge. Resulting molecular diagnostic data will be combined with clinical and microbiology data to improve the pathogen diagnosis rate in the trial.
"The collaboration with Cempra, which is developing much-needed novel antibiotics to overcome the resistance problem, is a perfect strategic fit for us," comments Oliver Schacht, Ph.D., Curetis CEO. "This trial should provide us with an excellent opportunity to generate further data on the clinical sensitivity and specificity of our Unyvero solution in a commercially important indication, which is not yet included in the EU label, nor the one we are currently seeking in the U.S. Moreover, we hope to demonstrate the benefit of the Unyvero solution in an ambulant setting and also generate additional data from frozen samples."
Curetis' Unyvero point of care diagnostic platform and P50 pneumonia cartridge were granted CE mark in May. The automated assay is designed to simultaneously test for 39 DNA targets from a range of pneumonia-causing bacteria and determine antibiotic resistance.
Cempra's solithromycin is an orally active, broad-spectrum fluoroketolide antibiotic. In June the firm started dosing patients in a Phase II study evaluating the drug in the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonococcal infections, including those caused by antibiotic-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

An instant icon
Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge, Omaha A 3,000-foot-long lighted span (one of the world's longest for pedestrians) links Omaha and Council Bluffs, soaring 52 feet above the Missouri River. Twin towers and a cable design marked it as an instant icon when it opened in 2008.

ZF-4175: Zend_View_Helper_HtmlElement *should* escape javascript events (on*)
I downloaded the latest ZF (1.6.0), and noticed the following in my search to fix a little piece of broken code: on Zend/View/Helper/HtmlElement.php: r20458@zlaptop: matthew | 2008-07-07 09:07:58 -0400 * do not escape javascript on* HTML attributes * JSON-encode non-scalar on* HTML attributes * Fix quotation issues in Slider dijits
What is the purpose of not escaping on* HTML attributes? ```
The functionality breaker comes from double quotes within the attribute (within the javascript code). These cause unexpected behavior when calling formReset or similar with an onclick event containing any amount of semi-complex code.
Is the reason for this change Dojo-related? If so, what purpose does it serve and what is gained by the change?
Fixed wrong component assignment
Could the reporter of this issue post a real-world use case where escaping in the on* attributes would be useful?
Right now, my colleagues and I cannot think of one. Having it unescaped has many uses, however:
escaping here would result in invalid javascript.
Another use case where escaping is bad is for JSON-encoded attributes, which a variety of Javascript toolkits utilize; escaping in such a case will result in invalid JSON.
If we support this request, it will be via an optional flag to enable escaping for such event attributes, but currently we cannot see a good reason for it.
The escaping of javascript in event attributes doesn't create a invalid javascript. But if it is not escaped it can be invalid:
Please test the example: not escaped is invalid:
escaped is valid:
I don't understand why you encode json if it is a non scalar attribute value. The event attributes are js functions but json doesn't do anything. Example: ``` What is the use of this event function ? Can you give me an example where it is usable ?
Marc answered beautifully. Also, if we view the standard for XHTML 1.0 itself, we find the following: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.4 "Attribute values must always be quoted"
This includes onclick, onchange, etc. Just try running Marc's example, and then try validating both ways. You'll understand.
I too am also curious as to how JSON-encoded on* values are useful.
Recent changes in ZF (starting at 1.6.0) broke backward compatibility for us in the formButton implementation.
Where we had the following code: <?php echo $this->formButton('bMailAttendants', $this->getTranslation('mail_attendants'), array('class' => 'buttonDefault', 'onclick' => 'mailAttendants(this,"'.$this->controllerName.'")')); ?>
we had to change this to: <?php echo $this->formButton('bMailAttendants', $this->getTranslation('mail_attendants'), array('class' => 'buttonDefault', 'onclick' => 'mailAttendants(this,\''.$this->controllerName.'\')')); ?>
to work around the escaping code in Zend_View_Helper_HtmlElement::_htmlAttribs()
I submitted this as a separate bug, ZF-4313, because at the time, I couldn't comment on issues. Please feel free to mark ZF-4313 as a duplicate of this bug.
The problem that TNF ICT Dept commented is solved in ZF-4333 and ZF-4313.
But in this comment, I do not mean this issue is fixed.

California Government's Three Co-Equal Branches
In California, as in the federal government, the power to govern is divided among three equal branches: the executive, the legislative, and the judicial.
The executive branch of government executes the laws enacted by the Legislature. Supreme executive power of the State of California is vested in the Governor. The Governor has authority not only to appoint positions throughout the executive branch, but also to make judicial appointments subject to the Legislature's approval.
The legislative branch of government is the State's law-making authority. The California State Legislature is made up of two houses: the Senate and the Assembly. There are 40 Senators and 80 Assembly members representing the people of the State of California.
The judicial branch of government is charged with interpreting the laws of the State of California. It provides for the orderly settlement of disputes between parties in controversy, determines the guilt or innocence of those accused of violating laws, and protects the rights of individuals. The California court system, the nation's largest, serves over 34 million people with more than 2,000 judicial officers and 21,000 court employees. The head of the judicial branch is the Chief Justice of California.

ZF-7191: Zend_Loader_Autoloader::autoload() doesn't invoke anonymous callbacks
When calling $autoloader->(push|unshift)Autoloader($callback) where $callback is a lambda, the callback is added to the stack but is never invoked during the actual autoloading. The autoload() method validates every callback and handles only callbacks of the form $functionName or array($objectOrClassname, $method).
It also might be a good idea to move the callback validation from autoload() to (push|unshift)Autoloader() so that the validation occurs only once and we may throw an exception if the callback passed is invalid.
My proposed changes, not sure if these are satisfactory. NOTE: The attached AutoloaderTest.diff is for PHP 5.3+ only! * changed the {{autoload}} method, replaced the {{if}} checks for array and string with {{is_callable}} * added {{_validateCallback()}} method which is called by {{setAutoloaders()}}, {{(push|unshift)Autoloader()}} * added {{$validate}} param for {{setAutoloaders()}} which defaults to true. This is because unshift, push and remove all call {{setAutoloaders()}} which would unnecessarily trigger validation for every registered autoloader.
Support the anonymous functions was added in 22481 present in the release 1.10.6.
See ZF-10024.

Lady Soul: The Life and Music of Aretha Franklin will take place this fall in Cleveland
CLEVELAND (August 23, 2011) – The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and Case Western Reserve University will honor Aretha Franklin, one of the greatest singers in popular music, during the 16th annual American Music Masters® series this November.
Lady Soul: The Life and Music of Aretha Franklin, a weeklong celebration, will tell the story of the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In conjunction with the Museum's latest special exhibit, Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power, the Museum will honor Franklin's work and her enduring influence.
"I'm thrilled and delighted to be honored by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for American Music Masters," said Aretha Franklin. "I'm really looking forward to being there. I'm so happy about what Ahmet Ertegun and the Hall of Fame created. The exhibits are a must see."
"All of us at the Museum are thrilled that Ms. Franklin will be receiving our American Music Masters award in the year where we are honoring Women Who Rock," said Terry Stewart, President and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. "Not only has she long set the paradigm for vocalists and performers around the world, she has also been a great friend and supporter of the Rock Hall on so many of our exhibits and fundraising events. As such, the opportunity to now honor her for her impact on both music and popular culture is unprecedented."
"Aretha Franklin's work as a singer, songwriter, pianist, and arranger is unparalleled," said Dr. Lauren Onkey, Vice President of Education and Public Programs and Executive Producer of the program. "Her vast catalog shows her mastery of gospel, soul, and pop music, and her singular piano playing defines soul music. We are honored to tell her story to a wide audience, including students."
The annual program begins on Monday, October 31, and will feature interviews, panels, films and educational programs throughout the week, including a keynote lecture and other events at Case Western Reserve University.

Each year, the American Music Masters® series explores the legacy of a pioneering rock and roll figure in a range of events that includes Museum exhibits, lectures, films, a major conference and a tribute concert benefiting the Rock Hall's education programs. Drawing together experts, artists, fans and friends, these events provide new perspectives on the most beloved and influential musicians of the past century.
The tribute concert brings together a diverse mix of artists and musical styles, and as a result, many magical moments have taken place over the years. In 2004, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss performed onstage together for the first time to honor Lead Belly. The pair was awarded the highest honors of Album of the Year for Raising Sand and Record of the Year for "Please Read the Letter" at the 51st annual Grammy awards. Honoree Jerry Lee Lewis, who was not scheduled to perform at the 2007 concert, was moved to take the stage at the end of the show. Lewis tenderly played the piano and sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". At the first American Music Masters tribute concert, Bruce Springsteen set the bar high and performed in honor of Woody Guthrie. The most star-studded and unique performance by a trio was Aretha Franklin, Solomon Burke and Elvis Costello paying tribute to Sam Cooke in 2005. In 2008, a 93-year-old Les Paul took the stage with his trio and then led an epic jam with some of rock and roll's greatest guitarists, from Jennifer Batten to Slash. Janis Joplin was honored in 2009 by Grammy winner Lucinda Williams with a song she composed especially for the occasion, and in 2010, Dave Bartholomew brought down the house with a performance in tribute of honorees Fats Domino and Bartholomew himself.
The Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment of all Ohioans.
About Aretha Franklin
Aretha Franklin is the "Queen of Soul" and the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She is a singer of great passion and control whose finest recordings define the term soul music in all its deep, expressive glory.
"I don't think there's anybody I have known who possesses an instrument like hers and who has such a thorough background in gospel, the blues and the essential black-music idiom," noted Ahmet Ertegun, cofounder of Atlantic Records, where much of Franklin's best work was done. "She is blessed with an extraordinary combination of remarkable urban sophistication and deep blues feeling....The result is maybe the greatest singer of our time."
Born Aretha Louise Franklin in Memphis, Tennessee on March 25, 1943, her family moved to Detroit when she was two. She remains a Detroiter to this day, a proud product of that city's wide-ranging and rich musical heritage.
Her professional career has had three dramatic turning points, one more exciting than the next.
The first was her move from gospel to secular. At 18, her progressive preacher father brought her to Columbia Records' John Hammond, the man who had discovered and recorded Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday (and later Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen). At the largest label in the world—the home of Mahalia Jackson, Miles Davis, and Barbra Streisand—the plan was to turn Aretha into a teenage superstar singing standards and jazz. Those records—especially her 1963 tribute to Dinah Washington and the remarkable "Skylark" in the same year—remain classics. She performed in New York's hippest jazz clubs with artists like Art Blakey and John Coltrane. Additionally, in conjunction with writer producer Clyde Otis, Aretha enjoyed a string of R&B hits: "Running Out of Fools," "Soulville," and "You'll Lose A Good Thing."
The second shift was seismic. In 1967, Aretha jumped from Columbia to Atlantic Records where Jerry Wexler became her producer. Everything changed; she suddenly rocked our musical world like no one else before or since. As Aretha wrote in From These Roots, her 1999 autobiography, "I felt a natural affinity for the Atlantic sound. Atlantic meant soul." Aretha took soul to another level. Anchored at the piano, she also took a co-producer role in arranging both music and vocals. The result altered history. Starting with "I Never Loved A Man (the Way I Loved You)," she claimed ownership of the bestselling charts. Her "Respect" became a multi-dimensional anthem, a sound piece for the civil rights movement and rallying cry for all groups suffering neglect and discrimination. "Dr. Feelgood," "Chain of Fools," "Do Right Woman—Do Right Man"—Aretha defined the sixties. At the funeral for Dr. Martin Luther King, it was Aretha who led the nation in musical mourning. Her cultural iconography was permanently established, the recognition of her genius an established fact. She would wind up winning no less than 18 Grammys.
Of her work at Atlantic Records during that charmed period, Franklin offered these recollections in her autobiography: "Jerry [Wexler] handled all the technical aspects and made sure I put my personal stamp on these songs. Atlantic provided TLC – tender loving care – in a way that made me feel secure and comfortable....Putting me back on piano helped Aretha-ize the new music....The enthusiasm and camaraderie in the studio were terrific, like nothing I had experienced at Columbia. This new Aretha music was raw and real and so much more myself. I loved it!"
Not one to accept categorization, Aretha went to church in 1971 to record Amazing Grace that, in the words of colleague and mentor James Cleveland "is the most successful gospel album ever made."
When critics remarked on Aretha's return to church, she commented, "I never left church and never will. Church is my heart. Church is where I was born and where I live."
The late seventies were challenging times for singers of the soul. Disco swept the country and knocked more than a few established stars off the charts. But Aretha, long the established Queen of Soul, maintained her crown with tenacious grace. While others fell away, she survived. By the start of the new decade, she found a new champion in music mogul Clive Davis. Her third turning point came in 1980 when she signed with Davis' Arista.
What followed was a series of brilliant albums and singles. Aretha teamed with star producers Luther Vandross ("Jump to It") and Narada Michael Walden ("Freeway of Love" and "Who's Zooming Who.") She sang hits duet with George Michael ("I Knew You Were Waiting [For Me])" and Elton John ("Through the Storm"). In 1987, she self-produced her second landmark gospel record, One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism.
Aretha was the musical highlight of Whoopi Goldberg's film Jumpin' Jack Flash, backed up by the Rolling Stones. And her appearances in both Blues Brothers films received universal acclaim.
The legend expanded in the nineties when Aretha's "Rose Is Still A Rose," penned and produced by Lauryn Hill, was named "soul hit of the decade" by the L.A. Times. Her appearance on MTV's Divas Live, together with Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Gloria Estefan and Shania Twain, became another high point.
In 1987 Aretha became the very first woman to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Seven years later, she became the youngest artist to receive the Kennedy Centers Honor.
Perhaps the most thrilling moment of all came in 1998 at the 40th Grammy Awards at Radio City Music Hall. Before a worldwide audience of 1.5 billion, Aretha stepped in for an ailing Luciano Pavarotti at the last minute and interpreted Puccini's "Nessun Dorma" to operatic perfection.
On December 17, 2008, then President-elect Barack Obama turned to the Queen to render her inimitable version of "My Country 'Tis Of Thee."
"If you look over the arc of her career," said Jerry Wexler, "there is no American musical artist who has achieved her level of accomplishment. It has been one triumph after another."
As a measure of her impact, Aretha Franklin has charted more Top Forty singles - forty-five in all, since 1961 - than any other female performer. To date she has made the R&B singles chart ninety-eight times, including twenty Number Ones. Franklin has also earned eighteen Grammy Awards, the most recent coming in 2007. In addition, she has sung at the inauguration of President Bill Clinton and received the Presidential Medal of Honor from President George W. Bush.
Franklin suffered some health issues in 2010, including broken ribs and a major surgery. However, she released a new album in 2011 (A Woman Falling Out of Love) and returned to live performing in better health and high spirits.
All along, the basis of Aretha Franklin's success – and the essence of soul music - has been her ability to communicate. "Music is my way of communicating that part of me I can get out front and share," she told Essence magazine in 1973. "It's what I have to give; my way of saying, 'Let's find one another.'"

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Two overtimes were not enough for the University of Colorado or Colorado College to score in the final game of the Colorado Cup. Sunday's game ended in a 0-0 draw, but a 3-1 overall goal differential helped the Buffs take home the trophy for the second consecutive year.
"At the end of the day, we played 200 minutes of soccer this weekend without allowing a goal," head coach Danny Sanchez said. "We're the Cup holders. We scored the goals on Friday (at UNC) that we needed to. We didn't play for a draw, but thirty seconds remaining in double overtime we were playing for the draw. I think one of our goals this year was to retain the Cup and we did. These are four very good teams and we did it on the road this year, which is more difficult."
The game was dominated by defense. Despite taking 12 shots, including two in the second overtime, the Tigers couldn't reach the back of the net. Senior Annie Brunner came up big for the Buffs, saving the ball five times. Her biggest save of the night came in the final minute, helping the game remain scoreless.
"I always want to have a shutout," Brunner said about her second shutout of the season. "It's a pride thing. I think as a goalie, it's always awesome to get as many shutouts in a season as possible. Starting off with a couple is very good."
The draw helped Brunner to sole position of second place on CU's all-time ties list. Her six ties put her five behind leader Kirstin Radlinski (2005-08).
Freshman Maddie Krauser had the Colorado's only shot on goal, a touch in the second half.
Eight minutes into the game, Colorado looked primed to score after a free kick by Lizzy Herzl flew towards the net and Hayley Hughes headed it in backwards. Unfortunately for the Buffs, an offside call dismissed the goal.
Bianca Jones and captain Amy Barczuk made a dynamic duo, pressing CC away from the net.
"I think we have pretty good chemistry back there," Barczuk said of her teammates in the backfield. "Don (Trentham), our assistant coach has been working a lot with defensive shape. With him working along with us constantly, I think we're definitely developing a good chemistry in the back. We're starting to kind of figure out where each other are talking to them, just kind of learning each other's tendencies."
In the last 10 minutes before the break, CC took three corner kicks, but weren't able to turn any into goals.
The intensity ballooned in the final minutes before the break. Anne Stuller hustled down the field to shoot one high. Minutes later, the Tigers had one of their biggest possessions of the game, as strong passing led to a shot on goal by midfielder Hannah Peterson. Brunner got the save off the top of her fingertips, taking the teams 0-0 into halftime.
The Tigers had a dominating presence in the second half, commanding possession of the ball. CU came close off a couple free kicks from Quinn Krier, but couldn't reach the net.
CC took four more corner kicks, but was unsuccessful in netting any. Brunner's speed in the net helped her swipe some opportunities for the Tigers. CC came close with eight minutes remaining, hitting the post, and again shortly after a corner, when a great side save foiled the Tigers once more.
In the final minutes of regulation, the Buffs made some noise near the net, increasing their offensive presence. But the scoreboard remained at goose eggs, sending the game to overtime.
Both teams came out hungry in overtime. Shaye Marshall took a solid shot in the 95th minute that hit the top of the post. The ball stayed with the Buffs, but they still couldn't score. Stuller and CC defender Kecia Morway got tangled, causing the clock to stop and Morway to momentarily leave the game.
The Tigers got a few more looks, but the Buffs' defense held strong and the game went to double overtime. Tension was high in the final 10 minutes. CC took two shots, including one on goal in the final minute by midfielder Madison Whitehead, but Brunner was there to end the game in a draw.

Producer and melodic lyricist Xolisa recently released her debut video via a track she calls "Be Felt." The Canadian vocalist blends jazz, soul, hip hop and spoken word vibes to create music that is reminiscent of that nostalgic feel good of the late 90s and early 00s.
Reminds us a fair amount of Bahamadia with her flow, actually. She's also been compared to be "reminiscent of an early Ursula Rucker." However you look at it, all we know is that this ish is buttery smooth and could easily stir up some trouble…
Be wary of pressing play on this one; This is some baby making music.
Thanks to our friends at BamaLoveSoul for putting us on!

Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Radelle Cast Iron Korean BBQ Plate This is the BEST hot plate we've ever had. There is nothing be3tter than this product anywhere. It is BETTER than the ones the restaurants use. February 4, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Joe-chef Fun tabletop cooking! I tried this product to cook Ssamgyeopsal (Korean Grilled Pork Belly) with great results. Solid construction (as in "heavy") and great price (cheaper than same types sold online) made it an automatic "see it-buy it" for me. Great for cooking on the table top, picnics, and camping (it needs a portable stove though). The only downsides are the clean up (you'll need a stiff bristled brush to clean up stuck bits of food between the grooves, but it should get better release the more its used), and it might be too specialized (a same-sized grill pan will do its job, with more room to cook with). Unless you eat/cook Korean food on a regular basis, or simply just like the aesthetics, I don't see it replacing the pans you have in your house right now. September 3, 2011

Your yoga teacher calls it mulabandha. Your personal trainer might call it the pelvic floor. And your mama would lovingly refer to this region of the anatomy as the naughty bits. Indeed, it is the wondrous pubococcygeus muscle, from now on referred to as the PC. This is the muscle that makes a kegel a kegel.
I was largely unprepared for the prodigious amount of information available on the wonder of kegels; apparently, they are a big thing. Upon studying the subject, I was hoping to embark on a grand kegel experiment that would allow me to offer a firsthand account of the benefits of kegel exercises—from both a physiological and a sexual perspective. Alas, the deadline was a bit too tight, as it were.
Kegels in a Nutshell
In the 1940s, Dr. Arnold Kegel began to prescribe an exercise to women who were having problems with incontinence. That exercise was the repeated engagement of the PC muscle, the muscle you use to keep from peeing your pants when you have to go really, really bad. Not only did the women Kegel prescribed this exercise to find that the daily routine of contracting their PCs helped with their incontinence, but they also noticed that their sexual experiences were becoming more gratifying, their orgasms easier to come by and more frequent. In other words, best side effect ever.
It wasn't long before word spread that the world's easiest exercise had explosive benefits. And it makes perfect sense when you think about it: The tighter the muscle, the more contact pressure is created. The greater the contact pressure, the greater the surface area. Suddenly sex really is a full-contact sport. Not to mention the regular exercise of a muscle, any muscle, increases its vascular distribution, bringing more blood and therefore more oxygen to an already sensitive area of the body, heightening the overall tactile experience. Furthermore, during orgasm, the PC muscle contracts repeatedly and reflexively. A well-exercised PC will contract with more strength, theoretically increasing the intensity of an orgasm.
Have you started doing kegels compulsively yet? I'll bet you have.
They're Not Just for Sex
Regular kegel exercises offer up other benefits as well. For one thing, the PC muscle is what holds your bladder, your uterus, and your bowels in place. I think we can all agree that these are organs we don't want moving around too much. A strong PC will help maintain the placement of these vitals. This is the main reason it's an exercise prescribed to women for the final stage of pregnancy and for the first weeks after giving birth. Childbearing and birthing naturally rearrange a woman's insides pretty significantly, to say nothing of their stresses on the vagina itself. A kegels regimen will help everything get back to normal.
Also, the original intent of kegel exercises—to prevent incontinence—is still in full effect. If you keep the PC in shape, you are less likely, as you get older, to experience this inconvenience. Who wouldn't be willing to sign up for Depends-free golden years, right? In addition, in those moments that catch you off guard—a sudden sneeze, perhaps, or raucous laughter, which can sometimes call your bladder control into question—well-toned pelvic muscles will keep such prosaic moments from being all too memorable.
And They're Not Just for the Ladies
Women aren't the only ones who can benefit from regular kegeling. And I'm not just talking about the secondhand sexual benefits a man might experience when getting intimate with a lady who also happens to be a regular kegeler.
Everyone has a PC muscle; it's a pelvic muscle, not necessarily a vaginal muscle. Pelvic contractions massage the prostate, promoting prostate health. And that's great. However, the direct sexual benefits a man can reap from regular kegeling are as tangible as those that women experience. First off, strengthening the PC increases ejaculatory control, which is good news for everyone. Secondly, as mentioned earlier, this muscle reflexively contracts during orgasm, making for more pleasurable and prolonged climaxes.

The Classical Greek Theatre Festival is always a different kind of theater experience, and not just because the source material goes back to the days when guys like Sophocles, Socrates and Euripides were running around Greece.
The festival is in its 42nd year, and is now run by Westminster College's Theatre Department after being housed for 40 years at the University of Utah. This year's festival features a modernized take on Sophocles' Antigone, drawing parallels to modern political happenings like the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street movements, as well as the importance of social media to those causes.
Hard to say if Sophocles was truly that forward-thinking when he penned Antigone sometime around 441 BC, but this production directed by L.L. West makes the parallels from Sophocles' story to modern times abundantly clear, blending his words with a booming electronic-music soundtrack, and adding to classic-looking costumes with modern props like iPads and cell phones.
For the unfamiliar, the story of the classic Greek tragedy is roughly this: Creon, the ruler of Thebes, must decided the fates of two brothers killed fighting in a civil war; one brother, Eteocles, will be honored as a patriot, while the other, Polyneices, will be left unburied and unsanctified--the worst punishment imaginable at the time. Antigone, sister to Polyneices, manages to bury her brother despite Creon's order, earning his wrath when Creon finds out. He order Antigone entombed alive, with causes the public to last out at the ruler for his unfair treatment of the women seem as simply giving an honorable burial to a member of her family. Creon's own son, Haemon, tries to convince his father of the mood of his people, leading to a bitter fight between the two that, suffice to say, doesn't end well for either of them.
From the beginning, the audience quickly realizes this version of Antigone is going to be anything but traditional. While electronic music booms from the speakers on the Red Butte Garden stage, the chorus starts chanting about "money, success and fame." The program invites the audience to scan a QR code with their smart phones to follow along with the story unfolding on stage, cuing moments to check your phone with an eagle screech through the sound system. It's a clever conceit to modern audiences, and tied in with the mob crowds need to document the protests against Creon on stage through social media.
There were some problems with the production, most of them technical. The need to have the actors talking through remote microphone headsets led to some inconsistency with the dialogue; some lines disappeared into the ether, or were overwhelmed by the sound effects.
Even so, strong performances, particularly by Jared Thomson as the tone-deaf politician Creon and Annie Louise Brings as the title character, helped make Antigone well worth getting up early on a weekend morning. For the most part, the show moves along at a steady clip--total running time is about 80 minutes--with only a noteworthy lag during a lengthy conversation between Creon and the blind prophet Teiresia (Holly Fowers), who arrives to tell Creon how he's displeased the gods.
The Classical Greek Theatre Festival's production of Sophocles' Antigone appears at Red Butte Garden again this weekend, Sept. 29-30, at 9 p.m. Tickets are $15 for the public, $10 for garden members, and $7 for children between 3 and 17.
