Arts Midwest Announces 2016–2017
Shakespeare in American Communities Grants
Including Tennessee Shakespeare Company
Grants Mark 14th Year of Bringing Shakespeare to Youth
Minneapolis, MN/Memphis, TN – Arts Midwest today announced $1 million in grants to 40 nonprofit, professional theater companies across 26 states, plus the District of Columbia, to perform the works of William Shakespeare for students through Shakespeare in American Communities.
Tennessee Shakespeare Company was announced as one of the 40 recipients (one of only six in the southeastern U.S.) for the third time in its history. The grant will support TSC's innovative and successful Romeo and Juliet Project in underserved Freshman high school classes in 2016-17.
The awards mark the fourteenth consecutive year of Shakespeare in American Communities, a national program managed by Arts Midwest in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA).
Each of the participating theater companies will present productions of Shakespeare plays to students from at least 10 schools. Accompanying educational activities include in-school residencies, workshops, or post-performance discussions. Performances will take place between August 1, 2016, and July 31, 2017.
Since the program's inception in 2003, Shakespeare in American Communities has introduced middle and high school students to the power of live theater and the masterpieces of William Shakespeare, benefiting more than 2.8 million individuals, including 2.3 million students, with live performances and educational activities.

"Ascends the highest heaven of invention"
with its action-packed
Henry V
in partnership with the University of Memphis'
School of Theatre and Dance on the U of M Mainstage
June 9-19
Sponsored by FedEx; Ann and Wellford Tabor;
Pat, Ernest, Marian and Martha Kelly
Henry V Trailer
Tennessee Shakespeare Company, in partnership with the University of Memphis' Department of Theatre & Dance, calls to action-packed theatrical life the battlefields and courts of an ambitious young king in William Shakespeare's masterwork on the chaos of war and the romance of peace: Henry V.
The rousing play famous for its many powerful speeches and orations, including "O for a muse of fire," and "Once more unto the breach," and "We few, we happy few, we band of brothers" plays in a fun, new "wooden o" on the University's mainstage from June 9-19.
Featuring a new, Elizabethan seating configuration that places patrons just off the raised stage (for only $10), a moving set, and slides of original wood-cuts from the early 15th century, TSC's production of Henry V employs ten professional actors, including AEA performers from around the country. They will play over 30 roles in what is perhaps Shakespeare's most theatrically self-aware play: "And let us, ciphers to this great account,/On your imaginary forces work."

Though costumed for 15th century battle and adorned for the period's courts of England and France, the company of actors constantly address their audience, changing costumes and characters in plan view, inviting the audience to become the eleventh actor.
The production's title sponsors are FedEx; Ann and Wellford Tabor; and Pat, Ernest, Marian, and Martha Kelly. Together, they make possible Free Will Kids' Night each Thursday night (up to four children 17 years and younger admitted free when accompanied by a paying, attending guardian). Additional funding is generously provided by the University of Memphis and First Tennessee Foundation.
Henry V is produced in memory of TSC friend, Dan Copp, who died in 2015. From 1943 to 1945, Lieutenant Copp served in the U.S. Navy on the battleship Tennessee. He saw action in the Pacific theater from the Aleutians to the South Sea Islands. With this production, TSC honors Dan's courage, service, and friendship.
Directed by TSC's Stephanie Shine (A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliet), Henry V features a professional ensemble from around the country: Montana native Colton Swibold in the title role, Paul Kiernan (recently in TSC's Twelfth Night) as Fluellen/Canterbury/Cambridge/Burgundy, Gabriel Vaughan (recently in TSC's Twelfth Night) as Dauphin/Westmerland/Jamy/Williams, Phil Darius Wallace (recently in TSC's A Midsummer Night's Dream) as Exeter/Nym/Orleance, Michael Khanlarian (recently in TSC's All's Well That Ends Well) as Pistol/Constable, Heather Roberts (TSC's All's Well That Ends Well) as Montjoy/Quickly/Alice/MacMorris, and Kaitlyn Maurer (TSC's A Midsummer Night's Dream) as Katherine/Grey/French prisoner.
New to the acting company are Jeffrey David Kent as Gower/French King/Ely/Erpingham, Blake Currie as Gloucester/boy, and Nic Picou as Scroop/Borbon/Bates/Bardolph.

"Requiem Birthsong for William Shakespeare"
on the occasion of the 400th Anniversary of his passing
by Dan McCleary
(from Dan's speech at this month's TSC Gala)
"We see ourselves in the boy fishing for the first time.
In the woman much older now in her wheelchair.
We quietly revel in taking a moment to guide a young person we don't know.
We all want to pass ourselves on.
We want to see ourselves in our leaders.
We want to see our values expressed in our city.
We need another person to reflect us.
But we also require the problem, the defeat, the death to take our focus from ourselves to others.
The plays of William Shakespeare are still produced more today, still read more today, than any other play. What he writes is intimate to him and personally developed. His craft, though, is in placing his focus on the self WITHIN his community, the religions that surround him, the political debates, the woods, the court, his country's history, the world's future, the cosmos.
As Shakespeare did 400 years ago this month, we will all die from this earth. We can have solace in this shared experience. These bodies, fellow travelers, will go. Ours are small material on a small planet in a galaxy of billions of stars among billions of other galaxies. Billions of years old and billions of years to go.
WE are finite.
Is it any wonder, then, that we all share an innate need to know ourselves, to know we must have an impact on the world and those around us and those to come. Of course. Of course we want to know how to act. Of course we feel the need to define ourselves, to make our little time on our little street huge and important and meaningful. Of course we need others to know us so we can feel we exist in the middle of the night when the rest of the street sleeps. Of course. So of course we construct theories and miracles and narratives that allow us to comprehend our existence and our passing.
For many of us, Shakespeare provides this narrative, but also the embrace of mystery.
In Shakespeare's poetic world, the true prophets are often madmen, the blind, the outsiders, the poor, the clowns, the fools. In his world, women and those in the minority not only achieve equality, they often lead the narrative, they forgive the men, they sacrifice. In his world, monsters, fairies, and murderers cry to dream again, cry for forgiveness, cry for humanity. Shakespeare awakens them to their true selves. He appeals to our collective unconscious.
Over four hundred years ago, England turned to William Shakespeare to teach its history and its new language.
Now, you and I turn to Shakespeare to give us language to articulate what might be madness, what might be fantasy, what might possibly be peace. His endurance lies in his multiplicity of ideas and arguments, together with his poetic restraint from imposing his answers on them. The poet in him respects you and me 400 years after his death. You and I turn to Shakespeare in order to recognize the beauty in what is naturally so, to recognize our natural compulsion to human compassion.
You and I speak as we speak, think as we think, love as we love, act as we do (or don't) in part because of William Shakespeare.
In this moment, we honor his time on Earth.
It is with this passion and spirit that Tennessee Shakespeare Company was born here, and why eight years later we steadily grow, seeking now a permanent home.
William Shakespeare is for everyone.
The End."

New Dolphins Uniform Leaked
Posted by Richard Machado
We no longer have to wait for Thursday to see the Dolphins new uniform. The photo to the left shows the Dolphins new uniform along with the Jaguars and Vikings. Nothing too drastic besides from the dolphin, its very similar to last year's uniform. What do you guys think of the new uniform? Did you expect more or are you happy with the simplicity?
5 comments
its okay. its a bit on the boring side. I was expecting maybe like orange spikes on the uniform to match the sun or something. they said they wanted a clean sharp look but this is more just clean. but in the end they played it safe and I don't hate it. so it aint so bad I guess.
Thanks Dave. School has been busy with finals and all and I haven't been able to post a lot but hopefully I can get back on track
Yup, I think at the end of the day if you don't think it's bad then it was a success. Most people don't like change and it will just take time to get used to it, thats what I think will happen to the logo

Third DCA ruling affects both condo and HOA associations that become "intervening owners"
On November 30, 2012, I posted a blog regarding whether an association should foreclose, and the consequences of the association becoming the "intervening owner." That occurs when association forecloses and takes title at its own foreclosure sale. The association becomes an intervening owner between the former owner that incurred the assessments and the new owner that takes title after the association.
This becomes particularly important when a first mortgagee forecloses soon after the association takes title. As I explained, the association should consider what the likelihood is that the first mortgagee lender may foreclose before the lesser of 1% or 12 months is recovered in rent. In some cases, the Association may not be able to recoup what the first mortgagee would owe, once that first mortgagee takes title. Additionally, I wrote:
Once the association takes title, and becomes the intervening owner, the association cannot later demand arrearages once the first mortgagee lender forecloses and takes title. The Association is responsible for those fees.
At the time, there was no appellate decision on point regarding the liability of the first mortgagee or third party purchaser who purchases at the mortgage foreclosure sale, after the association has taken title as a result of its own foreclosure. My post was based on a plain reading of the statute, and a circuit court decision, as well as prior unsuccessful legislative proposals to exempt associations from "joint and several liability."
On January 23, 2013, the Third DCA ruled on just this issue, in Aventura Management, LLC v. Spiaggia Ocean Condominium Association, Inc.. There, the Association had taken title at its own foreclosure sale, before the first mortgagee bank foreclosed. When a third party purchased at the mortgage foreclosure sale, the Association demanded the full past due amounts. The new owner filed a declaratory action asking the court to determine its rights and obligations under F.S 718.116 (1)(a). The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the Association. Aventura Management appealed.
The Third DCA reversed the lower court's ruling that the new owner was obligated to pay the Association for past due assessments. The court ruled that the Association as intervening owner was the "previous owner" as described in F.S. 718.116 (1)(a) once the third party bidder purchased at the mortgage foreclosure sale. Therefore, the Association could not demand past due assessments (let alone associated fees and costs) from the new owner. The Court stated, "the plain language of the statute does not state or suggest that an exception is to be made when the previous owner is the Association."
Spiaggia is binding on all lower courts in Florida, until and unless there is a conflict with a later opinion by another appellate court or the Florida Supreme Court overrules this decision. I don't think it likely either will happen. This is one more compelling reason why the Legislature should create an exception for associations who become intervening owners.

secret, and proportional. The entire country constitutes a single
electoral constituency, and all citizens are eligible to vote from age

represent them in the Knesset.
Election Day is a national holiday, free transportation is available
to voters who happen to be outside their polling district on that day
and polling stations are provided for military personnel, hospital
patients, and prisoners, as well as for merchant seamen and Israelis on
official assignment abroad.
The Central Elections Committee, headed by a justice of the Supreme
Court and including representatives of the parties holding Knesset
seats, is responsible for conducting the elections. Regional election
committees oversee the proper functioning of local polling committees,
which include representatives of at least three parties in the outgoing
In each election to date, between 77 and 90 percent of all registered
voters have cast their ballots, expressing the great interest taken by
most Israelis in their national and local politics.
Knesset elections are based on a vote for a party rather than for
individuals, and the many political parties which run for the Knesset
reflect a wide range of outlooks and beliefs.

|H 430mm × W/D 430/860mm
Double Chair
VIIC is inspired by interlocking burr puzzles. It consists of 7 plywood elements. All parts stay together without the need of glue and nails.
It is part of "coordinate" collection. Coordinate because in order to be assembled its legs must be moved together towards the center as a coordinate-motion (slide-together) structure. The top must be placed at a special time during assembly – just before it is finished when the two E shaped elements that hold it are close enough to each other. Once assembled the structure will stay stable even if one tries to move one or two of its elements. Disassembled this furniture occupies little space; as a result, it is very appropriate for frequent change of place. The level of difficulty in this case depends not on dexterity but mostly on spatial vision.
The whole structure is very stable. Its parts lie in several different planes that are almost perpendicular to each other and every plywood element is practically unchangeable in its plane. Both sides of all elements are identical, giving the opportunity of choosing which to be the more visible one. The chair back is elastic, providing space for movement of the body.

News: Women's Soccer Stays In Upper Half Of SCC
The Pasadena City College women's soccer team accomplished several things when it faced Los Angeles Harbor College at Robinson Stadium. Most importantly by winning 3-0, the Lancers broke a tie with the Seahawks to take sole possession of fourth place in the 8-team, South Coast Conference standings.
PCC also extended its undefeated streak to five games (3-0-2) while matching its season high in scoring. The Lancers are 4-0 when scoring three goals in a match.
The Lancers (6-5-6, 4-3-4) took a 1-0 lead in the 13th minute as sophomore forward Cassandra Saavedra, who started for the first time since missing six games due to injury, launched a long pass to sophomore forward Amanda Papac inside the goalie box. Papac knocked in a roller into the corner of the net for her team-leading sixth goal. Despite the early score, PCC was outshot, 12-4, in the first half.
The second half was a different story though, as the Lancers took more opportunities for shots after Rivas lit a fire under the team with a halftime speech.
"I'm happy we got more goals," Rivas said. "It's one of the main things we've been working on. Now we're looking forward to facing Mt. SAC."
Pasadena took 11 shots during the second half, scoring two more goals. The first in the 61st minute when Papac sent a lead pass to sophomore midfielder Lizbeth Rodriguez who sent a roller behind the goalie. The second when freshman forward Helena Macintosh bumped in a header from close-range in the 82nd minute after a throw-in by Rodriguez deflected off a defender. Macintosh tied teammate Papac for her sixth goal of the season.
The Lancers had a couple more opportunities to extend the lead but Harbor goalkeeper Lissandra Ledesma made some excellent saves to keep the game from getting out of hand for the Seahawks.
In the 66th minute, sophomore midfielder Alexandria Jimenez got her foot on the ball inside the 6-yard goalie box but Ledesma made a close-range save after Jimenez hesitated with the shot. In the 75th minute, Papac made a run downfield with the ball and shot a nice roller to the right edge of the net when Ledesma made a beautiful diving save, getting her finger tips on the ball to deflect it wide. Ledesma collected seven saves overall.
Lancers goalkeeper Angie Ulmer recorded her fifth shutout of the season, making nine saves against the Seahawks' 22 shots. Ulmer's 0.75 goals against average is eighth best in Southern California.
PCC hosts Mt. San Antonio on Friday, Nov. 8 in a 3 p.m. match at Robinson Stadium.

So, today while putting on my makeup, I realized my eye lids were not where they used to be. I mean, they are over my eyes, but for some crazy reason they have stretched out of shape and now need to be moved out of the way in order to apply eye shadow. Though I do this every morning, today I apparently paid closer attention to the changes I am now experiencing. For instance, I think my forehead has shrunk! It use to be a bit further away from my eyebrows, which also seem to be coming together each passing day!
I accidentally dropped my necklace down my shirt and it landed on my newly found belly. (Now I'm sure this is more information that you need to know), but a few years ago it would have landed on the floor. Today, even before it's final resting stop, I felt like a Pachinco game as the necklace flipped and flopped through the now endless array of curves and landed ever so gracefully near what used to be a belly button. Now it's just a belly! I seem to remember everything being a little higher on the grading scale. Somewhere between dead North and a little farther North, but not so far south! While washing my hands, I felt as if I were in a Snow White movie. Scrawny wrinkly fingers like the old lady with the apple. I charged across the vanity for the moisturizer. I buy it at Costco now. You can never have enough of that stuff. They should make the container life size so I can jump right in. I slathered myself head to toe with the richest, creamiest lotion I could afford. Then the dog walked in and started licking my leg. I jumped in the air, lost my footing on the way down and slid across the bathroom floor. Thank goodness for the cellulite and the added cushioning on my rear end, otherwise I really would have hurt myself. I looked over at the dog who had her head cocked to one side and I could swear she was smiling. Once I was able to grab hold of the sink (which took a few minutes cause my hands were so slippery) I stood up, looked in the mirror and realized that a lesser person might be threatened by this. Not me! I'm going to battle and I'm stopping at the pharmacy on the way to work to get more gear. I won't go down with out a fight!

"The West is a huge region and it has some very good academic schools," Idaho head coach Pete Showler said. "To have five players selected out of 50 be from the University of Idaho is a huge compliment to their hard work and to them embracing the 'student' and the 'athlete.'"
Five Idaho juniors were mentioned on the list, with forward Chelsea Small earning First Team honors, midfielder Jill Flockhart claiming Second Team accolades and midfielders Amber Pimley and Megan Lopez, and defender Lauren Layton earning Honorable Mention status.
Small, a Secondary Education major from Solana Beach, Calif. (Torrey Pines HS), holds a cumulative grade-point average of 3.96. She led Idaho in shots, goals and points for the third-consecutive season and this year broke Idaho career records in goals (31), points (74) and shots (313), to go along with her record for career game-winners (12). She is a three-time First Team All-Western Athletic Conference honoree and was the 2011 WAC Preseason Offensive Player of the Year.
Flockhart is an International Studies major from Salmon Arm, B.C. (Salmon Arm Secondary) who holds a cumulative 3.78 GPA. She is a two-time First Team All-WAC honoree and a 2010 NSCAA All-West Region pick. She led Idaho in 2011 with six assists and ranks fourth all-time at Idaho with 11 career assists. She also has five career game-winners, good for second all-time at Idaho, and a team-best .138 career shooting percentage.
Pimley, a Food and Nutrition major from Camarillo, Calif. (Adolfo Camarillo HS), holds a 3.69 overall GPA. Primarily a defensive mid, she was the unlikely hero in Idaho's first-ever WAC Tournament win when she scored both goals in a 2-1 victory over San Jose State for her first career multi-goal game and first career game-winner.
Layton is an International Studies major from Spokane, Wash. (Mead HS) with a 3.81 cumulative GPA. She is Idaho's active leader and ranks second all-time with 14 career assists, three of which came this season. She dished up the 200th assist in program history in the 3-2 win over Montana on Sept. 4. She was a 2010 Second Team All-WAC selection.
Lopez is a Biology major from Oceanside, Calif. (Rancho Buena Vista HS) who holds a cumulative 3.64 GPA. The center mid has five career goals, seven career assists and 17 career points. She was second on the team in 2011 with 15 shots on goal, and she scored the game-winner on a header against Montana on Sept. 4.
In addition to the five individual honors, the Vandal team posted a combined 3.46 team GPA in 2010-11 and earned the NSCAA Team Academic Award with the highest team average in the WAC.
"We thank all the staff who support them in their endeavors, but it comes down to them studying and working tirelessly to have fantastic grades," Showler said. "We're doing very well on both sides of the ball right now, and that's great to see as a coach. It shows that we're recruiting the right type of player and also that they're working their socks off on and away from the pitch to make themselves better."

This reflection is taken from my book Pro-Life Reflections for Every Day, which is available for purchase at: ProLifeReflectionsForEveryDay.org.
"The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion" – Mother Teresa (Nobel Peace Prize Lecture).
Reflection: You have heard people say that being wrong on abortion outweighs being right on other issues, and that is correct. The full truth is, if you are wrong on abortion, you can't be right on other issues. To permit abortion, but then to cry out for the right to work, housing, education, health care, and peace, is to say that these other rights belong to some people but not to all.
Prayer: Lord, forgive our nation for allowing all the rights of the unborn to be taken away. Amen.

Relax, Earthlings, NASA Says the End is Not Near
Apocalypse believers who fervently expect the world to end on December 21 are in for a surprise, because NASA is pretty confident it's not going to happen.
The space agency released a video called "Why The World Didn't End Yesterday," 10 days early. Check it out below.
It explains why the world won't end in a blast of solar energy from the sun or a collision with a giant asteroid, despite the long-held belief that the Mayans "predicted" such an event. Scientists and experts agree that no such asteroid or comet is hurtling toward Earth, a rogue planet is not coming to destroy us, and the sun is not a threat either.
NASA also posted answers to FAQ about end of the world rumors on its website.
So you can unpack your bags and cancel your flight to Bugarach, because 2013 will arrive on schedule.
Thanks! You're on our list.
And your life's about to get more interesting.

ZF-1819: Support gzipped responses
We should optionally allow the client to request a gzipped response from the GD client library. Architecture of this has to be investigated (service object, http client, etc).
In order to support getting a gzipped response, 'gzip' needs to be in the user-agent, but an accept-encoding header is also required to enable gzip.
This was resolved in svn rev 9846, 9849 along with the secure authsub support.
If the zlib module is installed (gzinflate function exists), and setGzipEnabled(true) is called, then an Accept-encoding: gzip header is added and the user-agent is modified to include the word 'gzip' (as required by Google's servers).
By default, gzipped responses are off.
Marking as fixed for the 1.6.0 release.

UCLA Head Coach John Savage
"First of all, I'd like to congratulate Creighton. I watched them all week, watched them Thursday in practice. I'm talking about a completely first-class operation - guys doing things right before the game, in between innings, on pitches, never giving up. To where they were and where they ended is a credit to how they go about it. This is the first time I've personally played them and UCLA has played them in a long time, and I just can't say enough about Creighton. First class. I've seen a lot of programs and how they go about things, from stretching to batting practice to infield and outfield to game, and I'm not just making this up. This is genuine. This is a first-class coaching staff. To be where they were and to run through the Missouri Valley to win the tournament and to play for a regional championship tells you that they never ever gave up on each other, and I'm just so impressed. I was going to say that win or lose. They made a huge impression on our program and really made our program better this weekend."
"They came out and threw a punch, which I knew they would, and scored two in the first, and then we got two outs and nobody on, and I think our biggest at-bat was a (Cody) Keefer walk and then (Jeff) Gelalich's home run, and all of a sudden it's 2-2, to where it could have gone the other way. Zack (Weiss) was definitely on ropes. He wobbled and he hung in there and pitched out of some problems, and after the fifth inning, he turned the ball over to one of our strengths, which is our bullpen, and I'm very proud of our players. This is a very difficult road with our schedule, and our Pac-12 Conference; to be where we are today, I just can't say enough about how proud I am of our players and our program. We finished the regional tonight the way we wanted, and I'm just proud for our players and happy for them."
(on finishing play by Sunday) "It's a big deal. Pitching-wise, we still had (Grant) Watson there for Monday. But the draft is tomorrow, and that's a big day. Certainly, it's always a distraction. It's something that you have to separate from your team. It's a very difficult time for our players; finals are coming up a week from Monday, you've got the draft, we're trying to win games, and there are a lot of things they need to juggle. I'm proud we it done today."
(on Gelalich improving his draft stock tonight) "I would think so. When you put two balls out of the ballpark today as fast as he did, it's pretty impressive, one against a left-hander. He's had a terrific year, he's had a borderline MVP of the conference (year). He was one of players up for it; he didn't get it, but he's really been our leader in the middle of the lineup all season long. He's worked his tail off, and he's done it the right way. I'm very proud of Jeff."
(on the team reminding him of 2010): "A little bit. We don't have the (Trevor) Bauer/(Gerrit) Cole factor. But I really think that offensively and defensively, this team is just as good as that team. These are basically the same players but two years older. We were disappointed last year in the way we ended in the regional final here, but they've grown up, they've played a lot of postseason baseball. Our young pitching, they've brought them along with them, and they've done a nice job. There certainly are some comparisons, but we're certainly finding a different way of doing it, and that's ok. Any way you can get it done, you find a way, and that's how we've gone about it all season."
UCLA RF Jeff Gelalich
(on his first home run) "I went up there not trying to do too much. My plan was to go up there, see a pitch and put a good swing on it. I got lucky that I got enough of the ball and hit it in the right spot, and it went out."
(on the difference in his power this year) "I worked out a lot this offseason, really worked on getting stronger, faster. I think just hard work in the offseason trying to get better every day is paying off now."
(on the pitching tonight) "I think Zack's a great pitcher. He struggled a little bit early, but as a team we have all the confidence in the world in him. We knew he'd settle down eventually, and he did. We know we can get a quality start from him, and we look at our pitching staff and we think we have one of the best pitching staffs in the country. If they can keep us in games, we know that our offense is good. If we work together as a team then you kind of feed off one another."
(on hitting two home runs in a Regional Championship) "It's a great feeling. I wasn't really thinking about it during the game. Just trying to focus on the task that was at hand. Hopefully we can carry this momentum into next weekend. We're just looking to get better every day and we're looking forward to Friday of next week."
(on if this is UCLA's best baseball) "We come out and try to get better every day. That's been a theme in our clubhouse with our coaches. We're always trying to work on something to get better. Hopefully we can keep improving and keep this thing rolling."
UCLA 2B Trevor Brown
(on starting pitching stealing headlines the first two games) "We weren't really thinking about that. All the credit does go to those pitchers, they pitched awesome. We were just looking for Zack to come out and give us a good start, and we would just take care of our end, and he would take care of his, and I think we both did a pretty good job tonight and were able to get a win."
(on if this is UCLA's best baseball) "I think we are playing pretty good baseball. This is the time of the year that we want to be playing our best baseball. I think as a team we're playing pretty well. Obviously we pitched pretty good this weekend, and we swung the bats good and ended on a pretty good note. I think we want to just carry the momentum into next week and hopefully keep playing well."
Creighton Head Coach Ed Servais
"I want to start out by congratulating UCLA for winning the regional. We knew going into tonight's game that we needed to play an almost perfect game to have an opportunity. We let a couple of situations get away from us early, a bases loaded situation, a couple of runners to follow an inning. We needed to get 4-5 runs in the first couple innings. That being said, I was impressed with our team. We responded early in that game. We just didn't have enough pitching to hang with them. Then the game got away from us in that middle part. Once again congratulations to UCLA."
(on UCLA's balance): "Don't forget how well they play defensively. That'll be a key for them next week. You've got to have some power arms. They know how to pitch. They pitch differently than a lot of collegiate pitchers do. They pitch up in the zone and inside a lot and you don't see that a whole lot. We knew that coming in but they executed a lot of those pitches. Then we saw a much more offensive team tonight than we saw Friday. Ty Blach had a little bit to do with that obviously but I like their athleticism. They're well balanced. They've got left-handed hitters, right-handed hitters, they have some bullpen guys that can shorten the game for them a little bit. If the games are held here, they have a great chance to advance. I was very impressed at how they went about their business."
(on the character of his team): "The last couple of weeks, they got it. They can't be disappointed with what happened today. As they look back at how they completed their season, they're going to realize that they got it. There's much more to the game than the scoreboard. They came together as a group. They made that decision and they accomplished what very few people thought they'd ever have an opportunity to accomplish. To win the conference tournament the way they did, to come in here and play toe to toe with some teams with much more impressive records than we had, says a lot about these guys. Even how they finished the game. They went down fighting and got two runs off of a power arm. That guy's a good pitcher and our guys battled to the very end. It took us a little longer to get there, but I'm very happy they figured it out. They got it. Not every team gets it."
(on the season as a whole): "As you look back when you start your season, you ask 'what are your goals?' Is your goal to get to postseason baseball? If it is to get to postseason baseball, then we've reached one of our goals. Our next goal for Creighton baseball is to find a way to win a regional. Now the next step is can we figure out a way to win a regional to get to a Super Regional. When I meet with the players in fall ball, one of our goals is always to get to the Regionals. So I guess if you look at it from that standpoint, it was a success. I'm just glad that the players got it. If we wouldn't have got it, then I would've said it was a major failure. But they figured it out. And because of that, I think it was a success."
Creighton C Anthony Bemboom
(on letting opportunities slip away): "It's tough when you've got guys scoring position, less than two outs, you've got to get runners in. That's how you beat teams like this. Just didn't get it done tonight."
(on UCLA momentum): "I think the momentum definitely shifted in their favor a little bit after their bomb in the first inning. I know our pitchers every time we score, they're going out with the idea of throwing up zeroes. That gives us the best chance of keeping momentum on our side. They took advantage of some pitches; kudos to them."
(on what they've accomplished this year): "We've been through a lot this year as a whole. There's been a lot of lows and to overcome what we did last week and in this regional I thought we played a couple of really good games. It says a lot about the character of our team and the guys on our team that we played hard."
"I'm just trying to give my team the best chance to win. Honestly I would've taken an 0-5 day for a win."
Creighton DH Scott Thornburg
(on letting opportunities slip away): "Just didn't take advantage of those opportunities. That was big in the first of half of that ballgame, especially to get a lead, and we just couldn't hold them off."
(on what they've accomplished the last couple of weeks): "It was special. We came together as a group. Something I'll never forget as a senior."

The first time I made chocolate mousse I was a young bride with a brand-new, two volume copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Long before Julie whatsername thought it up, I cooked my through both books, including puff pastry. Only blogs hadn't been invented yet and that's why I'm not rich and famous.
I digress.
The recipe for chocolate mousse is in the first volume of Mastering the Art, authored by Child, Louise Bertholle and Simone Beck. It requires 4 egg yolks, 1/4 cup superfine sugar, 1/4 cup orange liqueur, simmering water, cold water, 6 ounces of chocolate, a tablespoon of strong coffee, 1 1/2 sticks of butter, 4 egg whites, a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of granulated sugar. A quarter cup of finely diced, glazed orange peel is optional. The instructions are, basically, beat, beat, melt, beat, beat, beat, beat, fold, refrigerate and serve.
This is a fantastic mousse–hefty on the tongue but satin smooth. The eggs give it substance and structure. The fat gives it silkiness and the beating gives it wings.
I've made it twice since 1973.
Because I fell for what our family calls "idiot mousse," a recipe my mother brought home from cooking classes she took with Helen Corbitt, the grande dame of Texas cooking.
It calls for 3 ounces of semi-sweet and one ounce of bitter chocolate, 1/4 cup honey, a teaspoon of instant coffee, 1 1/2 tablespoons of cognac and a cup of cream, whipped. Fresh raspberries are optional.
I've made this many times, as a stand-alone mousse, as a filling for sponge cake rolls, as a cake filling.
But today, on the internet, duh, I saw the simplest recipe for chocolate mousse yet, and I made it immediately. Maybe you saw it too–it was up on Yahoo! but it was from food52.com and the original recipe was one given by Herve This to Wired magazine in 2007. This is the so-called "father" of molecular gastronomy; he's a French physical chemist whose specialty is exploring the why of cooking–why protein toughens at a certain temperature, why you need to add egg yolks one at a time, why things curdle, etc.
Mousse, or creme Chantilly, it turns out, expands because of a particular proportion of fat to water to air. That means you can make a mousse with just two ingredients in about the time it takes you to read this blog.
I did it.
Here's how.
Put 3/4 cup water in a saucepan. Add 8 ounces of excellent, bittersweet chocolate. Stir till melted.
Pour the mixture into a bowl, put that bowl in a larger bowl filled with ice and water
and beat the chocolate vigorously with a wire whisk.
Beat it until it's the consistency of whipped cream, then very quickly pour it into pretty serving dishes. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving. Top with whipped cream.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Osteosarcoma is the most common type of bone cancer among children, adolescents, and young adults.
The disease usually occurs in the long bones, such as the arms (humerus), legs (femur/tibia), and pelvis. It rarely occurs in the jaw and fingers, but often occurs at the ends of these bones near growth plates.
Osteosarcoma cancer cells can also spread (metastasize) to other areas of the body. Most commonly, these cells spread to the lungs. However, bones, kidneys, the adrenal gland, the brain, and the heart can also be sites of metastasis.
The exact cause of osteosarcoma is not known, but genetics may play an important role. Children and adults with other hereditary abnormalities, including exostoses (bony growths), retinoblastoma, Ollier's disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, and Paget's disease, have an increased risk for developing osteosarcoma.
This form of cancer has also been linked to exposure to ionizing irradiation associated with radiation therapy for other types of cancer (i.e., Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin disease).
The following are the most common symptoms of osteosarcoma. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include, but are not limited to, the following:
The symptoms may have been present over a short period of time or may have been occurring for six months or more. Often, an injury brings a child into a medical facility, where an x-ray may indicate suspicious bone lesions.
The symptoms of osteosarcoma may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination of your child, diagnostic procedures for osteosarcoma may include:
Specific treatment for osteosarcoma will be determined by your child's physician based on:
Treatment may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following:
Prognosis for osteosarcoma greatly depends on:
A person who was treated for bone cancer as a child or adolescent may develop effects months or years after treatment ends. These effects are called late effects. The kind of late effects one develops depends on the location of the tumor and the way it was treated.
Some types of treatment may later affect fertility. If this side effect is permanent, it will cause infertility, or the inability to have children. Both men and women can be affected.
As with any cancer, prognosis and long-term survival can vary greatly from child to child. Every child is unique and treatment and prognosis is structured around the child's needs. Prompt medical attention and aggressive therapy are important for the best prognosis. Continuous follow-up care is essential for a child diagnosed with osteosarcoma. Side effects of radiation and chemotherapy, as well as second malignancies, can occur in survivors of osteosarcoma.

"Move over Duckies and Double Deckers, we've got the Big Bus," Michael Mack told the crowd of excited locals on June 15 at the Utah Welcome Center, 90 South West Temple, SLC.
After enjoying some fruit and coffee, the group was ready to take the first hop-on-hop-off sightseeing tour with Big Bus Utah.
The tour features a total of 19 stops throughout Salt Lake City. The school-bus-turned-convertible takes guests to The Lion House, Temple Square, various museums and other popular tourist locations and finishes at the Gateway. Passes are available as one-day, two-day or three-day packages, and riders can hop on and off at the different stops to explore. During peak season, the busses will reach each stop within 20 minutes, giving pass-holders short waits between stops.
"The third day is automatically free when you buy online," says owner Jerry Dolejs. "Every big city in the world has tour busses, so now I can say—without bragging—that Salt Lake City is on the same level as Paris, London and New York."
Dolejs claims Big Bus Utah is the perfect choice of movement to experience the city.
"Guests can stay on the bus for the whole day and do five loops. They can do only one loop. It doesn't matter," he said. "They create their own sightseeing tour of the city."

So I'm always down for intense type of training, but i'm not gonna be stupid about it or follow the latest fad workout or fad diet.
so recently it has come to my attention: the "Training Mask"
it talks about elevation training. pretty much it's suppose to deprive you from breathing well to simulate the higher altitude enviroment... which is fine and dandy. but also no real purpose. for the average person doing it, it's a waste of time and dangerous. i can understand soldier, cops, and firefighters. they may use a mask during real world events. so yeah.
but those people train with a mask for work purposes, not because they'll be climbing a fucking mountain.

Hi JD,
Basic economic theory states that the value of anything is exactly equal to what someone is willing to pay for it.
An original stock knucklehead in excellent condition is probably worth more to a collector than the price of a new reproduction model.
However I doubt that anyone would give me the price of a new repo for my '47 chopped bike.
Also the person who wants an original bike probably has different values than the person who would buy a repo.
Therefore I don't think the value of the repo will have any signifigant effect on the value of the originals.

Record Swims, Multiple Victories Highlight Wire-To-Wire Win At Big Al Open
Princeton knows that the ultimate success of the 2013-14 season will be determined on the road, but the five-time reigning Ivy League champions made their biggest home weekend a memorable one. The Tigers won five events Sunday night to complete their wire-to-wire victory at the 2013 Big Al Open.
The weekend included a trio of record-breaking swims, including two from sophomore Teo D'Alessandro, who broke the Princeton record in both the 200 and 400 IM. Junior Michael Strand, the reigning Ivy League champion in the 100 back, broke his own record in that event as well.
"The Big Al Open is a special meet for our program, so heading into the weekend we were excited for the opportunity to race in DeNunzio Pool," assistant coach Mitch Dalton said. "Obviously, the swims by Michael Strand and Teo D'Alessandro stick out as exceptional. While it is too early to tell if their swims will be fast enough to qualify for NCAAs, they have proven they are ready to compete at that level.
"We've got a lot of work to do to reach our end-of-season team goals, so it's back to work on Monday," Dalton added.
Princeton won the Big Al Open with 1283 points, while Dartmouth finished second with 850 points. Brown (669), Columbia (470), Rider (309), and Villanova (147) rounded out the final four spots. The weekend also counts as the Ivy League dual wins over both Brown and Dartmouth; those scores will be posted when available.
Senior Paul Nolle, the 2012 Ivy League champion in the mile, made his final Big Al swim an impressive one. He won the first individual event of the final session in 15:26.53, while freshman teammate Sam Smiddy completed a strong weekend by placing third in 15:36.72. Sophomore Zach Ridout gave the Tigers three in the Top 5 with a fifth-place time of 15:47.99.
Junior Connor Maher is the reigning Ivy League champion in the 200 back, and he held off sophomore teammate En-Wei Hu-Van Wright for a win in 1:43.98. Hu-Van Wright, who figures to be one of Maher's top challengers for the Ivy title this year, took second in 1:44.26, while freshman Anton Lundin placed fifth in 1:50.18.
Princeton put three in the top five of a third straight event, and once again the top Tiger took the event. Sophomore Jeremy Wong claimed the 100 free in 43.98, beating Brown's Jeffrey Strausser by less than .2 of a second. Junior Harrison Wagner finished fourth in 44.55, while sophomore Sandy Bole was fifth in 45.17.
Dartmouth senior Nejc Zupan, one of the league's most decorated swimmers, won the 200 breast in 1:56.52. Two Princeton swimmers rounded out the Top 3; sophomore Jack Pohlmann placed second in 2:00.78, while senior co-captain Daniel Hasler was third in 2:00.98.

Drought forces ranchers to sell herds to cut losses
TORRINGTON, Wyo. As a relentless drought bakes prairie soil to dust and dries up streams across the country, ranchers struggling to feed their cattle are unloading them by the thousands, a wrenching decision likely to ripple from the Plains to supermarket shelves over the next year.
Ranchers say they are reducing their herds and selling their cattle months ahead of schedule to avoid the mounting losses from a drought that stretches across a record-breaking 1,016 U.S. counties. Irrigation ponds are shriveling to scummy puddles. Pastures are brown and barren. And they say the prices of hay and other feed are soaring.
So, in the latest pangs of a withering heat wave that has threatened crops and sparked furious wildfires, ranchers are loading up their cattle and driving to towns like Torrington. They come, reluctantly, to sell."They're getting frustrated, and they're at a loss for what to do with their cattle," said Michael Schmitt, an owner of the livestock market. Many cattle producers are selling off less-profitable animals with the hopes of holding on to part of their herd. But the smaller the ranchers, the deeper their troubles.
On this 90-degree July morning, anxious ranchers and poker-faced beef buyers filled the seats around the auction floor, ready to sell 1,700 cattle at a new weekly special: a drought sale.
Because the cattle being sold now are younger and lighter than those fed all summer on prairie grass, ranchers are losing $200 to $400 for each one they are dumping early. That can mean the difference between a year's profit and loss when multiplied out over herds numbering in the hundreds or thousands.
"It's going to take two to three years to recover," said Brit Moen, who was selling 150 black steers. "If this is to go on for another year, it'll put a lot of people out of business.
Black Blade: Enjoy some cheap steaks while you can because come this winter we will probably see livestock prices increase once the culling is finished. I may buy back into COW as prices fall during the culling in anticipation of a sharp rebound this winter and spring.
