Missed out on Comic-Con? Plan now for next year
If you've never been to Comic-Con and missed out on going to this year's event, take solace in the fact that you're not alone.
Thousands of people descend upon San Diego for this yearly four-day celebration of all things pop culture, and during this stretch, news of exclusive footage from highly anticipated films or surprise appearances by A-list celebrities can be upsetting for those left out in the cold.
The fact of the matter is Comic-Con is a tough ticket to come by. Many attendees and so-called "Con experts" agree that the process to get badges (tickets) for the event is one that requires vigilance and patience, but also one that can be truly rewarding once you're there.
So, how do you get into next year's Comic-Con?
Next year's Comic-Con International at the San Diego Convention Center will begin on Wednesday, July 8 with "Preview Night." The convention officially kicks off Thursday, July 9, and ends Sunday, July 12.
Event officials advise first-timers looking to obtain badges to visit the Comic-Con website and sign up for a Member ID. Watch this tutorial video on how to create a Member ID:
Those with Member IDs who opt-in for Comic-Con emails will be notified of important dates/times for badge sales and other important information related to the convention.
Badges for individual days are sold only on the Comic-Con website, and those who purchase badges for all four days of the convention are eligible to buy the Preview Night badge. Tips on buying badges can be found here .
Comic-Con International Director of Marketing David Glanzer told 10News that the process for purchasing badges for 2015 has not yet been finalized. For anyone interested in next year's event, Glanzer recommends frequently checking the website for the latest information.
Once you have purchased badges for the days you want to attend, the next logical step would be to figure out where to stay in America's Finest City. Glanzer said the Comic-Con website has a hotel reservation system in which a number of hotels near the Convention Center are blocked out specifically for the event. Again, it is highly recommended that those interested in booking a room frequently visit the website for announcements on dates and specific hotels. To check on availability, visit www.comic-con.org/cci/hotels .
Tony Kim, who runs the blog Crazy 4 Comic-Con , said getting a hotel room through Comic-Con's reservation system can be difficult due to the extremely high demand. He told 10News that attendees can try to "reserve a hotel room on your own about 9-10 months ahead of time [or] look for condos or timeshares ... you can also find a room much farther out [from the Convention Center] like at SeaWorld ..."
According to Kim, once visitors book a room through the Comic-Con system, extra reservations could be found via Twitter, but he added, "This isn't as reliable, but if you are lucky, you will find a room."
Many Comic-Con veterans, like San Diegan Mare Tosino, are fully aware that the 4-day convention brings on a traffic nightmare in the Gaslamp Quarter of downtown San Diego.
"I follow Comic-Con on Twitter and pay close attention to anything related to parking because if you buy a parking pass to any of their lots, you're guaranteeing yourself a less stressful experience," she said.
Comic-Con offers its visitors who are driving numerous parking lot options near the Convention Center, but Tosino said, "You just need to be ready to pounce on those spots, especially the lots closest to the Convention Center. Those spots sell out really quick on the website ."
But Tosino added that parking your car blocks away from the convention is not necessarily a bad thing because "you get to see what else is going on downtown and walking is a great workout anyway."
Other previous Con visitors told 10News that San Diego's trolley service is the way to go. Kim said the trolley "drops you off right in front of the Convention Center."
He also added, "For a great San Diego experience, take a pedicab to get a fun, scenic view!"

Once you hit the convention floor, first-time visitors should prepare for sensory overload. The atmosphere at Comic-Con can be exciting due to the plethora of booths and displays. Major movie and TV studios set up elaborate and interactive booths to promote their upcoming projects. There are also booths dedicated to collectible items and art displays, various toy/game and comic book vendors and video game setups from some of the big game studios.
"There is certainly something for everyone," Kim told 10News, but he added, "It takes a couple of days to really see everything on the convention floor, so plan accordingly. If you only have a one-day badge, you will have to choose between panels or the showroom floor."
There are multiple rooms and halls
dedicated to panels and discussions throughout the Convention Center. The subject matter varies at each panel, but many Comic-Con attendees know that the most popular panels take place at Hall H and Ballroom 20. If you want to see anything related to the Marvel movies or AMC's "The Walking Dead," Hall H is the place to be. Ballroom 20 typically hosts anything related to popular TV shows like "The Simpsons" or "The Big Bang Theory."
When it comes to panels or screenings, patience is truly a virtue. Comic-Con veterans 10News spoke with were either frustrated with the waiting-around process or were fine with it.
"I've met some great people while in line waiting to get into a panel," said Con veteran Jon Ong. "It's always fascinating to hear where they're from, how long they've been doing this or why they're dressed in whatever costume they're wearing."
Kim added, "There is no easy way of getting into the high-profile panel rooms like Hall H and Ballroom 20. Fans camp out overnight to get into these rooms. The best advice I can give is dress warm, have a pillow and blanket, and bring friends with an adventurous spirit. It's a great atmosphere, but not for the faint of heart."
Prior to this year's convention, Comic-Con officials laid out new rules regarding entry into the popular Hall H panels. Those rules and an FAQ on Hall H can be found here .
Kim told 10News that many visitors tend to overlook the off-site events that are hosted by various companies.
"Whether it's 'The Walking Dead Escape,' or Nerd HQ, or Geek and Sundry, there are number of amazing 'Cons within the Con' that make the entire San Diego Comic-Con experience so special. So even if you don't have a badge, four days in San Diego can still be pretty magical," he said.
Tosino said one of the reasons she goes to Comic-Con each year is for the exclusive, show-only items. She told 10News, "My son is really into action figures so I make it a point to visit the Mattel and Hasbro toy booths to see what they're offering. Some of the prices can be on the high side, but they make for really awesome and memorable souvenirs."
Lee Roberts, who has gone to every Comic-Con for the past 20 years, advises first-timers to head to the convention with a game plan.
"If you're going just to stare at people in costume, that will get old quickly. Make sure you study the massive programming schedule and make your own quick list of three or four panels a day [you're interested in]," he said.
Roberts said he and his daughter, who herself has been to the convention 10 straight years, also make a list of the specific booths on the floor to visit and always note the booth number. Roberts told 10News studying the map beforehand helps in the experience.

A Dover man has been arrested on charges of rape and harassment after he allegedly violated a court order not to contact his victim
Lt. Dan McKeown of the Dover Police Department said Rasoul K. Hanner, 20, of the 1300 block of Walker Road, became the subject of a statutory rape investigation in late March. The incident, which involved a 15-year-old, took place in early 2013 in the unit block of Stevenson Drive when Hanner allegedly had consensual intercourse with the girl.
Since then, McKeown said, Hanner had been arrested on additional charges of threatening the victim and was ordered by the court not to contact her. However, Hanner allegedly violated that order repeatedly after the court appearance, McKeown said.
Hanner was taken into custody Friday and charged with fourth-degree rape; harassment; and non-compliance with a court order.
He was jailed at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna after failing to post a $22,500 cash-only bond.

text: One wonderful thing about Kelowna B.C. (besides the fact that it has an Accent Inn) is that it's located next to one of the most beautiful lakes in the Northwest. Okanagan Lake is approx. 110 kms long and when you visit Kelowna, you're roughly in the middle. A lake of this size, in one of the warmest areas of B.C. is perfect for just about anything. Avoiding your mother in-law or that cousin that just won't leave you alone… It evens hosts a lake "monster" Ogopogo. No really it does! I tried to get it to eat my cousin when I was little but alas, it must be a vegetarian. (more…)

Humpback Whales Breach In The Bay
Published Sep 8, 2005 - (Updated Jul 17, 2012)
One of the greatest thrills you can experience inside Banderas Bay is watching the play of the humpback whales that return every year to mate and give birth. As many as 300 have been sighted during one season; and it is our good fortune that, of all the whales in the world, the humpback is the species that breaches most frequently-up to once every 40 seconds for several minutes! Experts believe that the leaps may be for courtship, a challenge or a display of strength.
The first to leave the bay are the recently impregnated females followed by the young, and later, by the mature adults. Last to leave are the mothers with their newborn calves, conceived the year before. This extra time in warm waters allows calves time to develop a thick layer of insulating fat that they will need in their northern home.
Oceanographers say there used to be around 15,000 Humpback whales in the world; but today there are only about 5,000 with perhaps 1,000 in the Pacific Ocean. Boats are not permitted to get very close to the adults and must remain even farther away from calves. Only authorized researchers are allowed to approach them.

No. 9 Field Hockey Claims Share of 2013 Ivy Title, Shuts Out Cornell 4-0
For ninth consecutive season the Princeton field hockey team has claimed at least a share of the Ivy League title following its 4-0 shutout victory over Cornell Saturday afternoon at Bedford Field.
The Tigers (11-4, 6-0 Ivy) will have to defeat Penn next week in Philadelphia to claim the outright championship and the conference's automatic berth into the NCAA tournament.
Before thinking about Penn and next week's title game, Princeton would like to close out the home and non-conference slate on a positive note Sunday versus Rider at 1 p.m. Prior to the match the Tigers will honor the Class of 2014 at their annual Senior Day ceremony.
Goalkeeper Anya Gersoff (8-3) earned her second shutout of the year, orchestrating a near flawless defensive line. Along with her four saves, the backline only allowed six Big Red shots, all in the first half.
On the offensive end, Princeton tallied 26 shots, including 18 on frame, and an 8-4 penalty corner advantage.
Freshman Cat Caro scored her second game-winner in as many games with her first half goal in the 22nd minute. After a Cornell foul, Julia Reinprecht took the direct pass from the top of the circle and found an open Caro on the left side to send it in past the Big Red's goalie Carolyn Horner.
Princeton nearly doubled its lead with 13 second left in the half. Teresa Benvenuti's shot beat Horner, but Cornell's Mallory Bannon was able to jump onto the goal line for the defensive save.
The second half proved to be all Princeton, as the Tigers held a 15-0 shot differential.
In the 45th minute a Reinprecht shot deflected off Horner's pads, but the Tigers were able to regain possession. Syndey Kirby corralled the ball and dished to an open Kelsey Byrne for the straight on shot in front of the cage for her first goal of the year.
Riding its momentum, Princeton quickly added to its lead three minutes later. This time it was Michelle Cesan picking up Amanda Bird's deflection. Cesan was perfectly placed on the left post and grabbed the rebound off Horner's pads to tap in the goal and improve the Tigers' lead to 3-0.
As the Tigers continued to pepper in shots, Horner managed to hold off Princeton again until the 61st minute. On a sweeping drive down the field, Cesan collected the ball and drove it towards the circle. She dished it to an open Allison Evans who sent in her eighth goal of the year past a diving Horner to wrap up Princeton's offensive output.

Miami Dolphins fearing Cameron Wake could plateau
Cameron Wake is no spring chicken.
The Miami Dolphins' best pass rusher might have just finished his second NFL season - producing a breakout season that earned him the first of what could be many Pro Bowl spots - but this CFL import is already 29.
The Miami Dolphins hope Wake's got more than the 14 sacks and three forced fumbles he contributed in 2010, his first season as a full-time starter. But they also know there are no guarantees that 2010 won't be his best season.
The coaches want a full season of proper edge setting from Wake (he only gave a half last year), and hope to use this offseason to find or develop a pass rushing complement that will take some pressure off him.
Wake is clearly a blossoming star South Florida should be thankful to have. But there is some concern inside the Dolphins' front office that he could plateau, and not take the next step to becoming one of the NFL's most feared defenders.
According to his peers, in two seasons Wake's talent has made him the NFL's 63rd best player in thew NFL Network's Top 100 Player Ratings. But is there more in-store?
Despite what the NFL initially thought, Wake has the talent. His 19.5 sacks the past two seasons serves as proof he's got the skillset. Everyone around him with testify to his work ethic.
Does that means he'll be a double-digit sack producer like Jason Taylor was for the next decade? Nobody knows yet, including the Dolphins.
The Dolphins are hoping he becomes the NFL's next DeMarcus Ware, which this regime drafted during their time in Dallas and helped blossom. But what could stop him?
"He could [regress] if he doesn't do what good players in our league do, which would be to take the next step to grow," Dolphins coach Tony Sparano said this offseason. "There's obviously things that Cam can improve on. Cam would be the first to tell you that.
"Cam is a guy who plays with a chip on his shoulder from the journey that it took for him to get to where he is right now. He does not forget it. If you look in his locker it paints a picture of where this guy has come from, to where he's gotten," Sparano continued. "He plays with that type of passion. Me and him have had conversations about not forgetting what it took to get there. It's made him right now a good player, and I think this guy has better than good in him."
But how good, and how does Wake get there is the question?
The Dolphins defense is built around his ability to apply pressure to the quarterback. But what happens when teams begin to consistently chip him with a tight end or fullback?
What happens when a nagging injury forced him to lose some of that eye-opening explosion that allows Wake to rip past left and right tackles?
Where will the Dolphins be if they don't find a consistent pass rushing threat to put opposite Wake, taking away some of the attention opposing defenses will indeed play him in 2011, now that his star is shining brightly?
Wake recently bought a $1.45 million home in Plantation, which means he's putting down South Florida roots that happen to be right around the corner from the team's Davie facility.
He and his agent have been lobbying for a new contract, one that will replace the initial four-year, $2.318 million deal he signed in 2009 when he was an unknown Canadian import. That deal features another $2.582 million that's available through incentives, but even with that pocket padding he's still FAR underpaid for his expected level of contribution.
However, it's doubtful the Dolphins tear up that old contract, which has two years left on it, and pay Wake market value until they see Act Three of his NFL career.

NDHS senior lands full-tuition scholarship to Lees-McRae
Published: Monday, April 8, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 4:42 p.m.
A North Davidson High School senior received the second-largest scholarship awarded by Lees-McRae College.
Emma McGovern, 18, will attend the school in Banner Elk this fall on a full-tuition scholarship after competing with more than 40 other students to receive the Elizabeth McRae Scholarship.
"I was really happy about it," she said. "It's pretty great. I'm really grateful. I had no idea I was going to get it."
Every year the college hosts a Scholars Day for prospective students who demonstrate a high level of dedication to leadership and academics. The honors program hosts the event that allows students to compete for two big scholarships by writing an essay and interviewing. As the recipient of the award, McGovern will have to remain active in the honors program and maintain a 3.0 grade point average while in college. She has a 4.4 GPA at NDHS.
The scholarship was named for Elizabeth A. McRae, who is one of the two namesakes of the college, according to a news release. McRae was a summer school teacher at the school in the 1900s when it was an all-girls school run by the school's founder, the Rev. Edgar Tufts.
McGovern said it's a huge relief because the college is a private institution. She plans to study communication art and design.
"I'm looking forward to the college experience. It's something different," McGovern said.
She will also play soccer for the school. McGovern has played soccer since the age of 3. She has been playing for NDHS for the past four years.
"I'm excited about playing soccer on a college level," she said. "Lees-McRae had the program I wanted. I really like the location and (soccer) coach. Everything I was looking for was there."
McGovern is the daughter of John and Dawn McGovern. She has two older siblings — Jessica, 22, and Matt, 24.
Dawn McGovern said she was surprised about the scholarship. She noted they were trying to figure out how they were going to pay for college, and the scholarship took a huge burden off of the family. She was also thrilled to see all of her daughter's hard work and sacrifice pay off.
"Emma is such a well-rounded kid," Dawn McGovern said. "She works hard. We're just really proud of her."

Rated 5 out of 5 by ams2285 Beautiful table This is a gorgeous table that is extremely easy to assemble. Great price too! You can find very similar tables for three times the price at other furniture stores. A beautiful addition to my living room! October 3, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by CAdesignerbuilder Attractive End Tables What's not to love? These arrived sooner than anticipated, were easy and fast to assemble, and look great. These are great end tables. January 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Clara fantastic piece! I absolutely love my Walker Campaign table. I had been in need of a side table in my living area, and when I saw this unique piece at World Market I knew it would be the perfect thing to update my slightly more tradtitional, cozy room. The table is sleek and elegant, and looks great alongside my couch with the Jolie Candlestick lamp sitting on it! I ordered this piece online at a very affordable price, and was so happy with the prompt and safe delivery. The table was in excellent condition and easy to assemble- WM even included a small wrench, which, if I didn't have my husband handy I know would have been crucial to assembly! As it was, I had the table proudly displayed before he even came over to help. I absolutely love how it updates the room and adds a unique twist. A wonderful purchase! January 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by jlk74 Great little table I bought this table to use next to the sofa and it's just the perfect size for a lamp, a drink and the remote. Not too small or too large and the style can go with many different looks if I decide to someday change the other furniture. The metal legs are much darker than shown in the picture online and don't have the noticeable yellow/gold streaks which I am happy about because I prefer more of the basic black vintage looking finish. October 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by The Quilting Queen Love this little table! Have used it as both a nightstand in the bedroom as well as a side table in the living room. It has a contemporary feel, but fits in perfect with my transitional style of decorating. The price is so good I think I will buy a second one! April 20, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Urika Great Table for Great Price I was very pleased with the quality of this table, given what I paid for. However, I was disappointed that the assembly instructions included were wrong! Typical....but still pretty happy about my purchase :) April 1, 2014

Obituary: John Dominis, Prolific LIFE Photographer, 92
John Dominis, who photographed sports, politics, celebrities and culture as a staff photographer at LIFE from the 1950s to the 1970s, died December 30 at his home in New York City, Life.time.com reports. He had recently undergone heart surgery, according to a website set up by his companion, Evelyn Floret.
In his time at LIFE, Dominis covered five Olympic Games, capturing the iconic photo of medalists Tommie Smith and John Carlos making the Black Power salute on the medal stand at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, as well as President John F. Kennedy's 1963 speech in Berlin, the Woodstock Festival in 1968 and President Richard Nixon's trip to China in 1972. Dominis said, "The great thing about working with LIFE was that I was given all the support and money and time, whatever was required, to do almost any kind of work I wanted to do, anywhere in the world. It was like having a grant, a Guggenheim grant, but permanently."

It's not every day that the Rock Hall gets a serious request to borrow Janis Joplin's iconic Porsche 356C cabriolet from our collection. Almost daily, visitors and fans from around the world ask questions like "Can I take it for a test drive?" But this time was different. We agreed to hand over the keys – though it wasn't quite that simple.
The Rock Hall's collections department receives regular requests from museums, galleries, schools, event organizers and even television shows to borrow an artifact or two for their projects. They come from all over the United States, but more and more are streaming in from overseas. Just within the last year we have had inquiries from Brazil, Japan, the Philippines, Hungary, Russia, Dubai and Canada. Many are compelling, interesting and hard to pass up, while some are downright quirky.
One of the more exciting inquiries we have received this year is from the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh. They asked to borrow Janis Joplin's 1965 Porsche 356c Cabriolet to include in their exhibition entitled Porsche By Design: Seducing Speed, a 22-car display of rare Porsche automobiles owned by such personalities as Steve McQueen and Ralph Lauren.
Transporting museum artifacts from one place to another is often a complex process. Before an artifact leaves the museum, a condition report is carefully prepared by our collections staff and a thorough photo-documentation of the piece is done, taking detailed shots of every little thing. Special acid-free boxes or heat-treated wooden crates are used to pack the objects, the manner of which could look over-the-top to the uninitiated, but it's necessary when dealing with priceless rock and roll artifacts. It should come as no surprise that items are insured, and shipping is often through a climate-controlled truck with dual drivers, and closely monitored until it reaches its destination and a signed receipt stating that the object arrived safely is received. Sometimes, an artifact is so fragile and rare it needs to be hand transported.
Historical vehicles, such as the Joplin Porsche, present a greater challenge due to size and the impracticality of boxing or crating them. In these cases, we have to rely on highly specialized car transporters that deal mostly with very valuable vehicles.
To ensure that the Joplin car was handled properly, a collections staff from the Rock Hall flew to Raleigh to be there when the Porsche was delivered to the museum. The car remained in the truck until our staff was present to witness the unloading. With a camera in hand, our staff watched every detail of the move. We had the full authority to halt everything and ship the car back to Cleveland if we witnessed anything inappropriate, dangerous or out of the ordinary. Thankfully, it never came to that – far from it, actually, as the highly trained staff in Raleigh knew exactly how to handle such precious cargo.
Once the car was installed at its designated spot, the registration staff at the art museum went through the condition report prepared by the Rock Hall staff and confirmed the condition of the car. Once both parties have signed the condition report and delivery receipt, the care of the vehicle officially transferred to North Carolina Museum of Art, and our staff could finally relax and enjoy the rest of the day.
The Janis Joplin Porsche will be on view as part of the North Carolina Museum of Art's Porsche By Design: Seducing Speed from October 12, 2013 to January 20, 2014. The Porsche is no longer on exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.

ZF-2396: Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Oci wrong quoting for single-quotes
The _quote function in the Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Oci quotes single-quotes with addcslashes. This is wrong since oracle requires a single-quote to be escaped with another single-quote and not a backslash. Please use the _quote() function from Zend_Db_Adapter_Oracle for quoting since there is it correct.
We tested the resolution in the bug description. This fixes the broken oci adapter.
I wonder why this is not fixed yet? This allows for SQL injection if people use the PDO_OCI adapter and rely on _quote() to work as advertised! The fix is so easy and already accepted in the regular Oracle adapter so please can someone commit the fix?
I have problems like this using Zend_Auth_Adapter_DbTable with Oracle Express and I created a patch to this in Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Oci.
Fixed in SVN11672 (applies same quoting as Oracle adapter). Fix test failure testSelectColumnWithColonQuotedParameter.

Hurricane Sandy Aftermath: Bronx, NY
Posted by Native NYker in current events, gas lines, hurricane sandy, mmashak on November 3, 2012
We can earnestly say that we have been very lucky and minutely affected by the slaughter of Hurricane Sandy as it made it's way across the NY/NJ region. But we aren't daft. Not everyone has been as fortunate. Case and point: Staten Island, The Rockaways, sections of Queens and the Pelham Manor portion of the Bronx.
Our good friend and Dive Master M.Mashak shared these here pics he has crossed paths with, as he gets back to grind, out and about in the Bronx. Heavy shit.
Alas, in the throws of some in the tri-state area being made to stop their day-to-day lives, we have had to continue working for the man. Ain't that something? As such we haven't ventured far – never ming getting near dusting off our cameras…
But let us not digress…
Our personal belief, when it comes to turmoil, is that shit can always be worse. If you think you got it bad – cop a squat and ponder all the ways your circumstance could have been easily worsened. Or look around you and you will likely find someone who may be in a worse predicament. As such, in spite of all the devastation we are witnessing across our area – power outages, lack of fuel, no heat, flooding, property loss, et al – we truly believe that this too shall pass, for everyone, and normalcy will once again return.
And if you are alive to bitch, moan, complain, point blame at and attempt to make some sense of the chaos of it all, then you too are blessed as there have been many a case that have not been afforded this small luxury and are no longer with us to carry on.
Hang in there folks.

Utah's Pioneer Theatre Company turns over artistic directors at a glacial rate, so when Charles Morey stepped down last summer after 28 years, Karen Azenberg, a lifelong New Yorker, saw a rare opportunity. Azenberg had directed and choreographed at theaters around the country, including PTC, and she sees Utah's most professional theater company as a well-kept secret.
"Jobs as an artistic director come up very rarely," Azenberg explained during a break in rehearsals for A Christmas Carol in December. They're especially rare at a company as financially secure, with such an experienced staff, and so solidly supported by the community as PTC. "The resident staff here is on par with anywhere I've worked, including Broadway. It works out to about a dozen regional theaters across the country that can produce on a scale and at the quality of Pioneer." PTC, she says, matches the quality of San Diego's Old Globe, the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C., and the Actors Theatre of Louisville, Ky.
Every theater has its strengths and weaknesses, she says, but "here they have a really good just about everything."
Still, the decision to migrate from Manhattan to SLC was a tough one for her family of New Yorkers. "We are not a family that moves, and there was a lot of anxiety over it," Azenberg says. "Moving to Utah was a giant leap of faith."
Her husband, Augie Mericola, gave up a job as a stage hand on Wicked to relocate with their son, Alexander, 14, and daughter, Emelia, 11.
Azenberg is the fourth artistic director at PTC in its 50 years and the first-ever woman in the role.
"It's very complicated coming into an artistic leadership position, bringing in new and fresh ideas, while balancing that with a respect for what has been achieved," she says.
Azenberg's first goal is to promote PTC's excellence to the national theater community. "I want Pioneer Theatre to have the national reputation that the Old Globe or the Arena have,'' she says. "We are already there as far as quality productions, but Pioneer is still a little secret that's going to explode once the wider theater community figures out what is in this building. It's crazy."
She hopes exposure will bring directors looking for a solid theater to launch new work. "Whenever actors or directors get offered jobs in productions at Pioneer, they talk to people who have been here,'' explains Azenberg, who is also president of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society. "The answer they invariably get is: 'You have to go. You will love it.' No one expects to see the size of the house, the size of the stage and that level of work in a theater they've never heard of."
Azenberg has set her goals. "It's going to be about putting the best theater possible out there. It's going to be diverse. Expect the unexpected."

For today's Throwback Thursday Giant Step President/CEO Maurice Bernstein shares his memories on Groove Collective's 1993 live recording event for their debut album. What do folks remember about these early Giant Step staples? Let us know!
Groove Collective was a band who grew out of the crew of musicians who jammed with our DJs at the Giant Step club. From there, we started managing the band and between the weekly club and their shows created a huge buzz and eventually got them signed to Reprise Records.
When it came time to put together the album, the idea was to capture the essence of Groove Collective's live show experience since that's what they were all about. We actually used to do shows with them every Friday at Sybarite on Wooster Street, and then moved the shows over to AKA on Houston Street where they continued the residency.
The album was recorded in three parts; we first did a live recording at the Giant Step club at Metropolis Café where the full band played with DJs Jazzy Nice and Smash and a mobile recording truck parked outside. The next day we held a live recording session at Clinton Recording Studios where we invited an audience of friends to help create the live show atmosphere. Finally, we mixed everything down, tracked it all and added overdubs at River Sound, the studio owned by Donald Fagan and Gary Katz of Steely Dan fame.
Gary Katz was instrumental in getting us signed to Reprise and produced the album, too. And Elliot Scheiner, who worked with Steely Dan and Eagles amongst other artists, mixed the album. They both did a great job of capturing the experience of a Groove Collective and Giant Step party while translating it into an album, too.

Many lives have been forever changed and even destroyed by Hurricane Sandy and the terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon. It heightened my resolve to live life more fully and not procrastinate on my dreams and goals. These two devastating events, one natural, one man made, exemplified the dichotomy of life: Life is truly fragile, but it is also amazingly resilient for those that survive.
I have never run a marathon, but it has always been on my "bucket list". I figured I'd better do it sooner than later as I know it won't get any easier as each year passes.
I grew up as a competitive swimmer, starting at age 5. I started running cross country in high school to get in shape for the winter swim season. I instantly fell in love with many aspects of running; the challenge both mental and physical, the solitude of training and camaraderie of race day. It gives me time to think about issues at work and home, put life into perspective and be a better husband, father, friend and employer.
I stopped running for many years as I got involved with family business and started a family. I am president of The Leprechaun Transportation Group, a small group of passenger transportation companies providing school bus, transit, commuter and charter motor coach service in the Hudson Valley and beyond. It is a third-generation family-owned enterprise started by my grandfather in 1934. My hope is that it becomes a fourth-generation family business.
My wife, Mary Jane, and I live with our four children; Katie, 15, Caroline 14, Eddie, 12, and Joseph, 9, in Montgomery, NY. We are members of Most Precious Blood parish and our kids have attended this parish school.
I began running again a few years ago to be able to keep up with my kids, lose my "spare tire" and be fit mentally and physically.
Meanwhile, several years ago Sr. Joann Dress, CEO of Catholic Charities Community Services of Orange County, approached me to become a board member. I agreed with little understanding of the full extent of their work. From day one, I have been thoroughly impressed with the board's and staff's dedication, passion, focus and operational efficiencies of this organization. They touch so many lives in this community. You can't help but be drawn to help with their mission.
Running as a member of Team Catholic Charities allows me to fulfill a personal goal while also fulfilling a charitable goal.
I truly appreciate this opportunity.

Finding a warm meal on a cold night
Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 5:48 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 5:48 p.m.
I have a request. We are looking for a recipe for real chicken and dumplings, the kind you make from scratch, like my Aunt Sister used to fix. She draped her dumplings on dish towels over the backs of the dining room chairs to dry before adding them to the pot of bubbling stewed chicken. What a perfect meal for a cold winter night like we've been having lately.
If you have it in your files, please send to Recipe Swap, in care of The Dispatch, P.O. Box 908, Lexington, NC 27293 or email to firstname.lastname@example.com. Thanks, and in the meantime, here are a couple of comfort food recipes for "chowdah and clam cakes" that warmed me up many a night when I lived in New England.
New England Clam Chowder
2 cans chopped clams with broth
1 large onion, chopped fine
1 2-inch square hunk salt pork
4 medium potatoes, diced
Canned clam broth
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups hot milk
1 cup hot cream
1-2 tablespoons butter
Drain clams, reserving broth (you can use 4 dozen hard-shelled clams (quahogs) placed in a pot with cold water to cover; boil gently for 10 minutes, strain, reserving liquid. Remove clams from shells and chop). Dice salt pork and fry in deep saucepan. Add onions and cook slowly until limp; add clams along with reserved and canned broth to make 3 cups. Add potatoes and seasonings, cooking until potatoes are tender. Add milk, cream and butter. Heat through, but do not boil.
Charlotte Gray's Clamcakes
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 10-ounce can minced clams, reserving broth
Milk, as needed
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
Oil for deep-fat frying
Sift flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Drain clam broth into a one-cup measure, adding enough milk to make 3⁄4 cup. Add this liquid to eggs, mixing well. Stir into flour mixture and beat well. Add clams and melted butter. Drop by spoonfuls into hot oil (350-360 degrees) to cover and fry until golden brown. Drain and serve.
