Penn Sweeps Sunday Twinbill From @PUSoftball
In a pivotal series for the Ivy South race, Penn took two games Sunday from the Princeton softball team and three of four on the weekend. Penn took the opener 9-2 and the nightcap 5-4.
The Quakers (20-15) now lead the division by four games over Princeton (21-15), Columbia and Cornell, all of whom are 6-6 in the league while the Quakers are 10-2.
In game one, Penn broke it open with a four-run fifth inning, turning what was a 3-2 game into a 7-2 advantage. Alex Peyton (6-6) took the loss for Princeton, going 4 1/3 innings giving up six hits and four walks while earning four of the seven runs on her watch.
In game two, Princeton never led but kept things tight, tying Penn at 2-2 on a two-run shot by Alex Peyton in the top of the third. But Penn made it 4-2 in the bottom of the fourth, getting a solo shot from Samantha Erosa and an RBI single from Brooke Melendez.
Princeton pulled within 4-3 with a Maddie Cousens solo home run in the fifth, but the Quakers got it back in the bottom of the sixth on a Jessica Arneson sacrifice fly after two singles and a walk. Princeton was able to make it 5-4 in the top of the seventh when Alyssa Schmidt drove home a single from Rachel Rendina, but Princeton left runners on first and second at game's end.
Shanna Christian (7-4) went the distance in game two, giving up eight hits and two walks while earning three of Penn's five runs.
The Tigers will come home to face Lehigh Wednesday at 3 p.m. in Princeton's final non-league twinbill of the regular season. A return to Ivy play will come Saturday and Sunday at '95 Field against Columbia.

In recent years, researchers have amassed more and more evidence that what we eat plays a huge role in how disease free we remain. "Along with avoiding tobacco and being physically active, a healthy diet reduces the risk of most major chronic conditions by as much as 80 percent," says David Katz, MD, director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center. But while doctors can prescribe a great, one-menu-fits-all eating plan for general good health, it's also possible to tailor your diet to specific health concerns, such as preventing breast cancer, heart disease and irritable bowel syndrome, as well as chronic diseases in general.
Here are four different paths to a healthier you. But before you take action, make sure you get the OK from your physician.
The Intermittent Diet
Goal: Prevent breast cancer
In brief | Severe calorie restriction for two days a week; a Mediterranean diet the other days.
Women who are worried about breast cancer can't change most of their risk factors, such as their family history, but they can significantly boost their odds of dodging the disease by staying at a healthy weight. Gaining too many pounds after menopause increases breast cancer risk by 30 to 60 percent. This plan is aimed at women who need to lose weight but find it tough to slash calories day after day; here, you have to muster major discipline for only 48 hours a week.
For five days, you follow a Mediterranean-based diet, filled with vegetables, legumes, lean protein and good fats like olive oil. (See here for menu ideas.) You eat the number of calories you normally do when you're not putting on weight. (In other words, you follow a maintenance diet.) On the two other (not necessarily consecutive) days, you become super strict and consume a maximum of 650 calories, mostly from milk and produce. Are these intermittent low-calorie days dangerous? No, says Katz, although he believes a traditional eating plan might be easier to follow for the long term.
The Evidence
In a four-month study of 115 women, intermittent dieters shed more weight and body fat and improved their insulin response more than those on a consistent 1,500--calories-per-day Mediterranean diet (the two dieting groups ate the same total number of calories per week).
For more information and menu plans click here.
A (strict) day on the diet
1 cup black coffee (or add milk from your lunch allotment)
1 banana
1 cup green tea
Cream of carrot soupmade with
2 carrots, 1 vegetable bouillon cube, 1 cup 2% milk and spices of your choice
1 cup skim milk
1 glass plain sparkling water
2 small vegetable portions(a portion equals 2 broccoli spears, 1 tomato or a cereal bowl of either lettuce or spinach) stir-fried with soy sauce and ginger
1 glass water
2 cups 1% milkblended with ice to make a smoothie (or served hot with cinnamon and artificial sweetener)
Diet created by the U.K.'s Genesis Breast Cancer Prevention organization.
The Portfolio Diet
Goal: Cut your risk of heart disease

Showtime picks Marlins as 'The Franchise'
A poorly kept secret has been officially revealed.
Showtime has chosen the Marlins as "The Franchise" this season. The premium cable network, which followed the San Francisco Giants last year, will have its cameras trained on the Marlins from spring training through the season, behind the scenes and on the field.
It ought to be an interesting ride with volatile and outspoken manager Ozzie Guillen and the team's big ticket new additions, including National League batting champion Jose Reyes, moving into a new stadium.
The first episodes of the weekly show are expected to hit Showtime right around the All-Star Game in mid-July.

Has anyone read the new ordinances?
Quiet mufflers with EPA labeling........good luck.
Impound serial offending vehicle..........
MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Myrtle Beach City Council passed 15 city-wide ordinances that they hope will limit bike rallies. These ordinances will apply year-round, but are aimed to limit May's bike rallies.
The ordinances that were passed ranged from a 1 a.m. curfew for underage teenagers to requiring photo identification for anyone checking into a hotel or motel. Officials went as far as implementing a mandatory helmet law for anyone riding a motorcycle within city limits.
All of the ordinances passed unanimously with the exception of the helmet ordinances. It passed 5-1. Critics say forcing bikers to wear a helmet goes against state law, which allows any adult to decide whether or not to wear one.
The city, however, says it's only an administrative infraction meant to improve the safety of people living in the city. Therefore, they say there's no conflict with state law.
Today, business owners were worried about the new ordinances. They say that the ordinances could cripple their business.
"If the bike rallies go away, it coudl be the equivalent of a category five hurricane hitting Myrtle Beach for the month of May," says Don Cauthen, who owns two restaurants in Myrtle Beach.
With the new ordinances, business that have to call the police more than twice in a six month period could face a maximum fine of up to 50 thousand dollars. They could even be forced to close by 2 a.m.

ZF-6281: Zend_Dom_Query::_getNodeList() mishandles query arrays
Zend_Dom_Query::query() calls Zend_Dom_Query_Css2XPath::transform(), which can return an array. It passes this as $xpathQuery to Zend_Dom_Query::queryXPath(), which passes it to Zend_Dom_Query::_getNodeList(). According to the docblock for this method, $xpathQuery may be a string or an array. However, this method explicitly casts $xpathQuery to a string, which results in that variable being equal to the string "Array" if the original value for $xpathQuery is an array.
In my opinion, it would be best for the sake of consistency to restrict $xpathQuery to be a string for both queryXPath() and _getNodeList() and to modify Zend_Dom_Query_Css2XPath::transform() so that it only ever returns a string.
Is it still alive after ZF-6280 fix?
Yes, this issue is still applicable. ZF-6280 only corrected API docblocks. This deals with corresponding source code. The reason that the two issues are related is because the fix from ZF-6280 (updating the API docblocks to reflect that the parameter/return types could be string or array) affects how this issue should be handled.
If both strings and arrays are to be allowed, line 207 of Zend/Dom/Query.php in trunk (in _getNodeList() where $xpathQuery is typecasted to a string) needs to be modified to handle actually allowing arrays rather than assigning the string 'Array' to $xpathQuery.
As a side note, it seems odd that _getNodeList() is even separated from queryXpath(), as the latter is the only thing that calls the former.
I've resolved this issue on my end (ZF version 1.9.3) by using the following line in Css2Xpath.php (line 52)
return implode(' | ', $expressions);
instead of
return $expressions;
Fixed in trunk and 1.10 release branch

Today there are almost six million Americans age 85 or over. By 2040 the number will have shot up to more than 14 million, according to U.S. census projections. That means there's a lot of eldercare in our future—a lot of finding Dad's lost keys, picking up Mom's prescriptions, calling insurance companies, sitting by hospital beds. And depending on how old you are right now, in that time frame you could end up both providing eldercare and receiving it from your kids.
There's no prenup for eldercare, no contract in which we lay out clearly what tasks we are willing to do, how much time and money we are willing to spend and what responsibilities, if any, lie beyond the scope of the agreement. We face the future not knowing what will be asked of us, assuming that because of love, duty and moral obligation, we will do whatever we need to do to help our parents. We may expect our kids will do the same for us. But where will we draw the line? Is there anything we won't do?
To find out, More conducted an exclusive nationwide survey of 751 men and women, ages 18 and over, all of whom have at least one living parent or guardian. We hoped to explore the parameters of eldercare, to give some definition to this amorphous, enormous situation. We found that most of us do plan to help care for our aging parents. But we turned up interesting differences in how "caring for" is understood when we broke down the answers by age, race, political party and, especially, gender.
Men vs. Women
Overall, men are more optimistic about eldercare than women are. "The reason men have a more positive attitude is that a lot of them take a can-do approach to family life," says Lisa Gwyther, director of the Family Support Program at Duke University Center for the Study of Aging. "They view it as 'This is a problem to be solved; I can fix this.' Women may be more aware of grief, sadness and loss, as well as how the burden of eldercare is affecting them." In addition, experts say women still do the bulk of the work. Women tend to assume an emotional, nurturing role and handle personal tasks such as bathing, while men take on more practical chores, like handling finances or house repairs.
When it comes to eldercare, we are often forced by circumstance to make difficult decisions on the fly, before we've had a chance to consider our options. So we ask you now: What do you think your role should be as your parents come to the end of their lives? And what do you hope your children will do when it's your turn? Maybe now is a good time to discuss your thoughts with your family. Because this we know for sure: We are not talking nearly enough about our parents' futures—or our own.

Reviews for Taco Puffs
"We made this recipe with crescent roll dough (we prefer the taste). The taste was fantastic, but the amount of prep work for the final product was not justified. It took us almost an hour total to make the puffs. My fiance has been calling them glorified Hot Pockets."
"We make this all the time and the whole family loves it. Not very healthy, but that's what makes it taste so good!"
"Very good, easy to prepare, Really similar to "Runzas""
"Followed recipe except there are only 2 adults eating so just made 1 can of biscuits."
"I have been making this recipe for years. It is requested every time my daughter returns from college. We top them with all the good taco stuff...more cheese, lettuce, salsa, sour cream & black olives. ONE is a meal. Leftovers are awesome."

Problem with M1
1. The cable is so smale and tight it often fall out of the player atleast on mine
why could samsung not use same type of cable as on p2
2. The ID3 tagging is different than previous samsung players?
I found M1 reading from the song tittle instead of IDtag
i had to rename many tracks
I even found a problem where a song displaying no album art
it afected the whole album not displaying the album art
I solved this downloading another song
The problem could be in it being a unsuported variable bitrate?
or maybe it was converted from something else into mp3
3. The worst problem now
When Creating a album on M1 and transfer some songs to that album
it dont let me says M1 stopped working
but if i transfer each song album directly to music album root directory
then no problem
Another bug maybe?
(i have 3Gb left)
I will try to see if i can fix the problems, but maybe i should swap it for a p3
This kind of "bugs" should never been on a unit from release
The problem of unit not responding seem to comes when:
1. when transfer come to certain songs
2. When this certain songs are inside another folder with other albums
(if songs are transfered directly to root /Music then no problem)
Update 2:
This is anoying found more songs M1 dont want to transfer (but with p2 no problem)
If i knew there was so many bugs/problem with M1 i have never buyed it
The files giving problem is variable bitrate
Update 4:
The file that didn't transfer at all got fixed after removing the "( ) " in the song track , now i have files on M1 but unit refuse to play files says "unsuported file"
After removing the folder again then transfer it again that files work
Update 5:
On Many albums if you don't include a file called cover.jpg in the folder
it will not show the album art, this is strange since on P2 it was enough for album art being tagged into the files
I am testing now so cannot say why some albums dont show album art without the cover.jpg file but again this most be some sort of bug?
Update 6:
upon plugging it in now it started updating library (when plugging in)
then get stuck on 99% updating library and dont want to turn off ):
M1 dont have a reset hole but holding ON/OFF and one of the volume button reseted the player
after plugged player in but it freezed so plugged it off again
Now uploading library is slower
update 7:
Now stuck on 99% update library again
plugged out and in but cannot acess my files anymore from pc just keep saying "transfering files"
then it stop and the root directory apear , upon clicking it load very slowly but cannot get into my files
I talked with the store they say i can swap it for a P3 so maybe i just do that
Update 8:
Had to format the whole memory and now i can acess M1 from pc again
will do all the music transfers first without adding widget
to see if the problem is a bug or memory related
Btw. I now can confirm the Reset hole is "holding volume button+on/off switch combination"
Update 9:
It seem Formating M1 solved most of the problems
The only problem so far is that many Files read both from Id3tag and filenames, so have to change some albums before transfering them from p2 to M1
for example in file name i can have:
And id3 tagged like: 01- Song Name.mp3
On p2 it would display "01-Song Name" since it read only from Id3tag
but on M1 it display: "01.song_Name" taking it from file name
But M1 not only take from file name ALSO from ID3 tag
if i have id3 tagged a song with "01 - song name 2"
but filename is "01 - Song name 1" it display "01 - song name 1"
So it sometimes read from Id3 tag ,sometimes from filename and sometimes both, in order to get it working perfect on M1 the Filename and ID3 tag most be equal
Then there is the problem with Album art on many folders
I do not have a cover.jpg on p2 but album art are tagged into the songs and still show up fine on p2, not so on M1 where on most songs
a file called cover.jpg must be inside the album where the songs are
this 2 things are a bit annoying but probaly i could learn to live with
Still, i would highly apreciate if someone could tell me if M1 can be set
to just read songs from idtags and not filename like i am used to on p2
See on p2 i didnt bother put the filename that perfect since i tagged it using tag3rename so trackname
was tagged to show up well on p2
but on M1 it read both from idtag and filename having to rename many filenames before transfer

Did a Firmware upgrade from 1.05 to 1.14
Not sure if i upgraded correctly i did it through emodio
After download was complete I saw a install window clicked ok
but did not see anything installing so i though i had done something wrong and unplugged it from emodio
thinking of doing a manual firmware upgrade instead
Then Turned M1 on to see "Copying firmware", ooh NOOO i though i had bricked it
i shouldn't have disconected from pc so i plugged in usb cable and hoped for the best
then i get "remove usb" so i did turned it on again and see firmware 1.14 is updated.
I am sure i did some mistakes here but it seem all went well or did it?
I mean i see firmware 1.14 could all files have been copyed ?
I did only have to turn unit on once, i dont recall seeing any upgrading files screen i saw on p2
So is firmware realy upgrade?
Anyhow i can test the M1 too see if firmware is realy 1.14 any function 1.14 has i can test?
I don't see much new in firmware but is a bit faster i think
specially scrolling in music menu
also the Voice recorder problem i had in "style1" making Voice recording skipping when using big calender widgets seem to be gone
Maybe I should give my M1 a little chance and not return it
but i just hope it wont give me problems later
After all M1 has things that P3 don't:
- amoled screen
- Stereo speakers (one on top and one on bottom?)
- can move icons (can't on p3)
- animated uci style
- Colors in music selection menu (I know not everyone like them but i do)
- and better uci interface overall
- Nice design
The only point that favor me for a P3 is having uci themes and Being maybe more stable
but i begin liking it , just hope i dont run into this problem again
I am going to backup all my M1 music on a Hardrive so i can easy move it over if having to format the M1 again
As for the battery widget i dunno why i have it and nobody else
it was just on my player when i got it, is very useful
Btw, Is the Screen scratch resistant as p3 is?
Today when conecting M1 to pc after browsing through all songs
The M1 transfer window on pc freezed so had to disconect player
luckely after conecting it It work fine again
Not sure if this is a cable or memory problem or simply a bug
Now it frooze again when conecting to pc
and now i CAN't acess any files on it from pc
the only file showing up is a system file
Everytime i conect it another System.ver file is created
cannot acess my files anymore... time for a second format this is second format in just 2 days for a NEW PLAYER
I think a New player should not be unstable like this
My though of returning it for a P3 is stronger
New update:
I have now formated M1 and upgraded to 1.19 firmware
I am not sure if i should keep M1 after all this problems and hope the new firmware fixes M1 to be unstable
or if just get a P3 instead.
I do know that M1 is superior in Speaker (M1: Stereo speaker, P3: mono spekaker) , in Screen quality (m1 has amoled and the screen is just amazing)
in having a Memory card slot and have a upgraded UCI (you see this clearly in UCI animated theme and in EQ sound settings and voice recorder for example)
But M1 has So many Bugs it should NEVER have been released before this bugs was fixed
maybe this is the reason M1 is not avaible widely in Europe yet
Samsung should realy start working out all Bugs on M1 and give us new features as a plus after all bugs we had to suffer
support for UCI theme is a must
In other words M1 is Unstable but.... is nothing a Format not solve
but hey i dont want to keep formating my units twice a week
P3 is more stable, have uci themes and are more solid (Except of the screen plastic ?)
also cable on P3 is bigger and better the M1 cable is bad too short and too smale
The biggest problem with M1 is the MEMORY seem to be too short for Tegra
so it become unstable sometimes (when conected to pc etc.. and has to format)
Samsung should do something with the memory asap
It seem the use of widgets is one of the cause for the problems
I will think some 24-48 hours about this
and decide if to keep M1 or return it for P3

Oh boy, that is a long list of bugs...
umm the P3 had the same problems with copying music(until an update)...
i'll wait to see if firmware updates fix issues.
also does the interface lag at all.... or a little
edit: vista would freeze my P3 or disconnect it while transferring stuff
On m1 what happens is after conecting/disconecting it many times to Vista to transfer all my music .
the vista window suddenly freeze
and I have 2 choices : Wait or remove the cable
Sometimes after like 3-5 minuts it stop freezing and can acess it from pc
but twice now i had to remove cable resulting corrupted M1 database so only solution was Format.
I do not know what cause this but i never had this problem on older P2
is quite anoying since after i put all my music on it, and i put like another album then it just happen and have to start all over again
I am normaly in a hurry and no time to format player every week
It can be a memory issue with M1 since the unit seem to suffer a lot from this (M1 memory dont work so good with tegra?)
but it can also be bugs
maybe a later firmware will fix problem (if is not already fixed in this 1.19 i need do more test transfering music)
To answer you question, It do Lag but is random
When pressing and artist in music menu theres a short lag waiting the M1 to respond, there is also random lags when scrolling up/down
it is not constant but it happen now and then
Again this can be memory related since Widget use a lot of memory
I suspect this because the second freeze which required a M1 format happened
after i browsed all Albums one by one to see if they was ok
then conected it to pc to transfer something
Problem is i have until 3-4 of January to decide if to keep M1 or go for another like P3 past that date i cannot change it
but i realy need to do more test first
so do u think removing useless widgets will help it lag less.....
also is their lag in touch response a lot( i turned off haptic on P3)
for mine it would freeze after 20 seconds into transferring media and video
is specialy big widgets that consume lot of memory
I am not sure if Amoled screen can consume memory too
but is more likely widgets and haptic
How do you turn off haptic on m1?
The freezing on mine is only random and so far only happened twice
so seem is not very often
Do you own a M1 ?
It seem the volume on M1 is louder than P2
found the setting Rock and Auto very useful
and the M1 screen is bright very bright
The album art of Pocketful of sunshine realy shine like gold
I didn't take a photo since my digital camera is not able to take such good photo of this amazing screen
But It shine brighter than the original album art
Just put it on your M1 and try it:
Even at Brightness 3 is very bright and at 5 wow
showing this to friends will amaze because of the screen (zune hd and cowon s9 is not avaible in stores here)
i guess only Sony X1050 could compete in my area but i have never seen x1050 turned on myself
But, back to the Bugs and problems
After transfering all my songs on M1
i notice that M1 taking longer before i can acess it on Vista
Which happened before it came to the point it crashed
maybe the bug is related to how much music you have on player
Or... if the album art is too big (with too big i dont mean bigger than 600x600 anyway)
I will need to check through my album arts now
Btw, The Music screen (like album art) is it bigger on M1 than P3 because of the screen?

Thanks for posting all this information, Coolvibes, it's very interesting.
don't have M1(in the USA), but the P3 screen is 3.0 inch and M1 is 3.3 inch
also to turn off haptic on the P3(maybe M1) is:settings/sound/touch tone/ the lower vibration all the way down
how did you exactly manage to display the album/cover art? are you using msc or mtp?
Just wanna share ... I tagged my music files and put in the album covers using mp3tag v2.45. Then I transfer the files using Emodio (a lot faster than using WMP or Winamp) in MTP mode, and now the album covers are visible on the player.
Hope it helps
Do transfer file using MTP mode is faster than MSC??
i hope Google will release DAP to fight Apple Ipod & Microsoft Zune
I found another problem
Now if the M1 is turned OFF and i plug it in
It conect - disconect - conect - disconect All by itself
I have to turn the M1 ON then plug it in
Anyone know why?
btw, i have about 800mb space left
sometime, it have some bad pixel when i let it standby

I have heard of this vulnerability, but although it was announced on the Full Disclosure list, it does not provide any details (other than a severity assessment). Does anyone have more info than me, and is able to tell whether non-Oracle JREs (OpenJDK's, for instance) and non-Windows systems are vulnerable to it?
It's been less than 24 hours, and it doesn't seem to have a CVE entry yet, so it's difficult to say. The details are pretty sparse.
All I can give you is my best guess:

The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC (FFSBC) is again recruiting experienced anglers to reveal the pleasures of freshwater fishing to friends, family and colleagues during the third annual Fishing Buddies Sweepstakes. Designed to introduce new anglers to sport fishing, Fishing Buddies also rewards anglers for doing what they love and sharing their fishing knowledge. Participation has grown consistently since the program launched in 2010 and significant growth in participation is expected for the third year.
"When it comes to introducing someone new to fishing, who better than experienced anglers who are passionate about it? They can speak directly to the pleasures of going fishing whether it's half a day at an urban location or a fishing weekend at a more remote lake," says FFSBC President Don Peterson. "They know the fish and the fishing spots and can help unravel the mysteries of freshwater fishing for the new angler."

WASHINGTON — A high school sophomore's science project about the chemicals that remain in drycleaned clothing prompted a university study and publication online in a peer-reviewed environmental journal, the Washington Post reported recently.
A Georgetown University professor and graduate students assisted 15-year-old Alexa Dantzler with her experiment. She sewed squares of wool, cotton, polyester and silk into the lining of several men's jackets and then had them cleaned at seven Northern Virginia drycleaners who had no knowledge of the experiment.
The research team determined that perc stayed in the fabrics and that levels increased with repeat cleanings, particularly in wool, the newspaper reported.
Industry representatives told the Post that the study was incomplete because the tested garments had been drycleaned but not pressed, which helps remove solvent.

Comments about South Africa:
I was born & raised in South Africa but immigrated to the USA in my thirties. The information in this guide was absolutely "spot-on" and more so. The reading and comments were accurate and I personally learnt a few more facts about South Africa which I never knew before. I bought this book as a gift to my daughter to give her a better idea of where she was born and she absolutely loves it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

4.5 29 31
This old-time spice cake is lower in fat but big on flavor. Serve it warm for breakfast on a frosty morning or have a square with hot cider on a snowy afternoon. It's a great cold-weather treat. —Deanne Bagley, Bath, New York
- 2 tablespoons reduced-fat butter, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 9 tablespoons fat-free whipped topping
- In a small bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg. Beat in molasses. Combine the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon and salt; add to butter mixture alternately with water, mixing well after each addition.
- Transfer to a 9-in. square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into squares; garnish with whipped topping. Yield: 9 servings.
Editor's Note: This recipe was tested with Land O'Lakes light stick butter.

Art Terms: Etymologies of Interest
I haven't come across anything like this yet, so I figured it was time to start putting my preoccupation with philology to good use. Maybe get a sticky going, or a few links.
Art Terms: Etymologies of Interest
Understanding the history of a word helps us to use it in a more nuanced and technical way. Its also just interesting to see how ideas and terms can undergo subtle changes over time. To that end, I thought I'd start collecting some relevant etymologies and post them here for others to check out. Maybe it will also help those for whom English is a second language.
For a contemporary glossary of 'specific' visual arts terms, you'll probably find what you're looking for at a site more like this: http://www.ndoylefineart.com/glossary.html. What follows here is instead a more general exploration of word histories. Feel free to contribute any others you come across, and I'll edit them into the main listing. Most of these are taken from the online etymology resource at: http://www.etymonline.com/, (which can be a bit unweildy at times), but I'll update them with some more comprehensive definitions once I have a little free time to transcribe the stuff on the bookshelf.
Part 1
1387, from L. abstractus "drawn away," pp. of abstrahere, from ab(s)- "away" + trahere "draw" (see tract). Meaning "withdrawn or separated from material objects or practical matters" is from 1557; specifically in ref. to the arts, it dates from 1915. Abstract expressionism from 1952
1798, from German ästhetisch or French esthétique, both from Greek aisthetikos "sensitive," from aisthanesthai "to perceive, to feel," from Proto Indo European *awis-dh-yo-, from base *au- "to perceive." Popularized in English by translation of Immanuel Kant, and used originally in the classically correct sense "the science which treats of the conditions of sensuous perception." Kant had tried to correct the term after Baumgarten had taken it in German to mean "criticism of taste" (1750s), but Baumgarten's sense attained popularity in English. c.1830s (despite scholarly resistance) and removed the word from any philosophical base. Walter Pater used it (1868 ) to describe the late 19c. movement that advocated "art for art's sake," which further blurred the sense. The noun Aesthete is first recorded 1881.
c.1225, "skill as a result of learning or practice," from O.Fr. art, from Latin artem, (nom. ars) "art, skill, craft," from Proto Indo-European (PIE) *ar-ti- (cf. Sanskrit. rtih "manner, mode;" Greek arti "just," artios "complete;" Armenian arnam "make," German art "manner, mode"), from base *ar- "fit together, join" (see arm (1)). In Middle English usually with sense of "skill in scholarship and learning" (c.1305), especially in the seven sciences, or liberal arts (divided into the trivium -- grammar, logic, rhetoric -- and the quadrivium --arithmetic, geometry, music, astronomy). This sense remains in Bachelor of Arts, etc. Meaning "human workmanship" (as opposed to nature) is from 1386. Sense of "cunning and trickery" first attested c.1600. Meaning "skill in creative arts" is first recorded 1620; esp. of painting, sculpture, etc., from 1668. Broader sense of the word remains in artless (1589). As an adj. meaning "produced with conscious artistry" (as opposed to popular or folk) it is attested from 1890, possibly from infl. of Ger. kunstlied "art song" (cf. art film, 1960; art rock, c.1970). Fine arts, "those which appeal to the mind and the imagination" first recorded 1767. Art brut "art done by prisoners, lunatics, etc.," is 1955, from Fr., lit. "raw art." Artsy "pretentiously artistic" is from 1902.
1581, "one who cultivates one of the fine arts," from M. French artiste, from Italian artista, from Medieval Latin artista, from Latin ars (see art). Originally used especially of the arts presided over by the Muses (history, poetry, comedy, tragedy, music, dancing, astronomy), but also used 17c. for "one skilled in any art or craft" (including professors, surgeons, craftsmen, cooks). Now especially of "one who practices the arts of design or visual arts" (a sense first attested 1747). Artistic first recorded 1753; artistry 1868. Fr. artiste, a reborrowing of artist after the sense of artist had become limited toward the visual arts and especially painting
1840, from Fr., from O.Fr. astelier "workshop," from astele "small plank, a shaving, splinter," probably from L.L. hastella "a thin stick," dim. of hasta "spear, shaft."
c.1275, from Anglo-Norm. beute, from Old French bealte, earlier beltet, from Vulgar Latin bellitatem "state of being handsome," from Latin bellus "fine, beautiful," in classical L. used especially of women and children, or ironically or insultingly of men. Famously defined by Stendhal as la promesse de bonheur "the promise of happiness." Replaced Old English wlite.
Canvas (n)
1260, from Anglo-Fr. canevaz, from O.Fr. canevas, from V.L. *cannapaceus "made of hemp," from L. cannabis, from Gk. kannabis "hemp," a Scythian or Thracian word.
1556, from M.Latin conceptum "draft, abstract," in Latin "(a thing) conceived," from pp. of concipere "to take in" (see conceive). In some 16c. cases a refashioning of conceit (perhaps to avoid negative connotations); conception in the womb sense was c.1300
c.1225, from O.Fr. colur, from L. color (acc. colorem) "color, hue," from Old L. colos, orig. "a covering" (akin to celare "to hide, conceal"), from PIE base *kel- "to cover, conceal" (see cell). O.E. words for "color" were hiw, bleo. The verb is from c.1300, earliest use is figurative. Colorful "interesting" is from 1889.
O.E. cræft "power, strength, might," from P.Gmc. *krab-/*kraf-. Sense shifted to "skill, art" (via a notion of "mental power"), which led to the n. meaning of "trade." Use for "small boat" is first recorded 1671, probably from some nautical sense of "vessels of small craft," referring either to the trade they did or the seamanship they required.
c.1386, from L. creatus, pp. of creare "to make, produce," related to crescere "arise, grow" (see crescent). Creator for "Supreme Being" (c.1300) drove out native scieppend, from verb scieppan (see shape). Creative is from 1678, originally literal; of the arts, meaning "imaginative," from 1816, first attested in Wordsworth. Creative writing is from 1907. The native word for creation in the Biblical sense was O.E. frum-sceaft.
O.E. dragan "to drag, to draw" (class VI strong verb; past tense drog, pp. dragen), from P.Gmc. *draganan "carry," from PIE base *dhragh- (see drag). Sense of "make a line or figure" (by "drawing" a pencil across paper) is c.1200. Meaning "pull out a weapon" is c.1200. Colloquial n. sense of "anything that can draw a crowd" is from 1881 (the verb in this sense is 1586).
1548, from L. designare "mark out, devise," from de- "out" + signare "to mark," from signum "a mark, sign." Originally in Eng. with the meaning now attached to designate (1646, from L. designatus, pp. of designare); many modern uses of design are metaphoric extensions.
c.1500, spelling variant of draught (q.v.) to reflect change in pronunciation. Meaning "rough copy of a writing" (something "drawn") is attested from 14c.; that of "preliminary sketch from which a final copy is made" is from 1528. The meaning "to draw off a group for special duty" is from 1703, in U.S. especially of military service
c.1205, from O.E. *dreaht, *[i]dræht[i], related to dragan "to draw, drag" (see drag). Oldest sense besides that of "pulling" is of "drinking;" meaning "current of air" ("drawn" through an opening) is 18c. It retains the functions that did not branch off with draft.
Fine (adj)
c.1300, from O.Fr. fin "perfected, of highest quality," from L. finis "end, limit," hence "acme, peak, height," as in finis boni "the highest good." In Fr., the main meaning remains "delicate, intricately skillful;" in Eng. since c.1440 fine is also a general expression of admiration or approval, the equiv. of Fr. beau (cf. fine arts, 1767, translating Fr. beaux-arts). Finery "gaudy decoration" is first attested 1680. Fine print "qualifications and limitations of a deal" first recorded 1960. Fine-tune (v.) is 1969, a back-formation from fine-tuning (1924), originally in reference to radio receivers.
c.1225, from O.Fr. forme, from L. forma "form, mold, shape, case," origin unknown. One theory holds that it is from Gk. morphe "form, beauty, outward appearance" (see morphine) via Etruscan. Sense of "behavior" is first recorded c.1386. The verb is attested from 1297.
1500, from M.Fr. galerie "a long portico," from M.L. galeria, of uncertain origin, perhaps alteration of galilea "church porch," which is probably from L. Galilaea "Galilee," the northernmost region of Palestine; church porches sometimes were so called from being at the far end of the church. Sense of "building to house art" first recorded 1591
1610, "traced" (implied in graphical), from L. graphicus "picturesque," from Gk. graphikos "of or for writing, belonging to drawing, picturesque," from graphe "writing, drawing," from graphein "write," originally "to scratch" on clay tablets with a stylus. Meaning "of or pertaining to drawing" is from 1756; that of "vivid" is from 1669, on the notion of words that produce the effect of a picture.
1561, originally a noun, from M.Fr. crotesque, from It. grottesco, lit. "of a cave," from grotta (see grotto). Used first of paintings found on the walls of basements of Roman ruins, characterized by fanciful or odd representations of animal or human forms (It. pittura grottesca). Originally "fanciful, fantastic," later "bizarre." Then sense became pejorative after mid-18c.
1298, "small horse, pony," later "mock horse used in the morris dance," and c.1550 "child's toy riding horse," which led to a transferred sense of "favorite pastime or avocation," first recorded 1676. The connecting notion being "activity that doesn't go anywhere." Probably originally a proper name for a horse (cf. dobbin), a dim. of Robert or Robin.
c.1375, "a spiritual illumination," from O.Fr. illustration, from L. illustrationem (nom. illustratio) "vivid representation" (in writing), lit. "an enlightening," from illustrare "light up, embellish, distinguish," from in- "in" + lustrare "make bright, illuminate." Mental sense of "act of making clear in the mind" is from 1581. Meaning "an illustrative picture" is from 1816. Illustrate "educate by means of examples," first recorded 1612. Sense of "provide pictures to explain or decorate" is 1638.
c.1225, "artificial representation that looks like a person or thing," from O.Fr. image, earlier imagene (11c.), from L. imaginem (nom. imago) "copy, statue, picture, idea, appearance," from stem of imitari "to copy" (see imitate). Meaning "reflection in a mirror" is c.1315. The mental sense was in L., and appears in Eng.

No problem, happy to help out
Part 2
from O.E. line "rope, row of letters," and from O.Fr. ligne, both from L. linea "linen thread, string, line," from phrase linea restis "linen cord," from fem. of lineus (adj.) "of linen," from linum "linen". Oldest sense is "rope, cord, string;" extended 1382 to "a thread-like mark" (from sense "cord used by builders for making things level," 1340), also "track, course, direction." Sense of "things or people arranged in a straight line" is from 1557. That of "cord bearing hooks used in fishing" is from c.1300. Meaning "one's occupation, branch of business" is from 1638, probably from misunderstood KJV translation of 2 Cor. x.16, "And not to boast in another mans line of things made ready to our hand," where line translates Gk. kanon, lit. "measuring rod."
Master (n)
O.E. mægester "one having control or authority," from L. magister "chief, head, director, teacher" (cf. O.Fr. maistre, Fr. maître, It. maestro, Ger. Meister), infl. in M.E. by O.Fr. maistre, from L. magister, contrastive adj. from magis (adv.) "more," itself a comp. of magnus "great." In academic senses (from M.L. magister) it is attested from 1380s, originally a degree conveying authority to teach in the universities. The verb is attested from c.1225. Masterpiece is from 1605, a translation of Du. meesterstuk "work by which a craftsman attains the rank of master" (cf. Ger. Meisterstück).
Model (n)
1575, "architect's set of designs," from M.Fr. modelle (Fr. modèle), from It. modello "a model, mold," from V.L. *modellus, dim. of L. modulus "measure, standard," dim. of modus "manner, measure" (see mode (1)). Sense of "thing or person to be imitated" is 1639. Sense of "artist's model" is first recorded 1691; that of "fashion model" is from 1904. The verb is 1665 in the sense of "fashion in clay or wax;" 1915 in the sense "to act as a model, to display (clothes)." The adj. is 1844, from the noun.
1315, from L. originalis, from originem (nom. origo) "beginning, source, birth," from oriri "to rise" (see orchestra). The first ref. is in original sin "innate depravity of man's nature," supposed to be inherited from Adam in consequence of the Fall. The noun, in sense of "original text," is attested from c.1385, from M.L. originale. Of photographs, films, sound recordings, etc., from 1918. Origin first recorded 1563. Originality is first attested 1742, probably after Fr. originalité.
c.1225 (implied in painting "result of applying paint"), from O.Fr. peinter, from peint, pp. of peindre "to paint," from L. pingere "to paint," from PIE base *pik-/*pig- "cut." Sense evolution between PIE and L. was, presumably, from "decorate with cut marks" to "decorate" to "decorate with color." Cf. Skt. pingah "reddish," pesalah "adorned, decorated, lovely," pimsati "hews out, cuts, carves, adorns;" O.C.S. pegu "variegated;" Gk. poikilos "variegated;" O.H.G. fehjan "to adorn;" O.C.S. pisati, Lith. piesiu "to write." Probably representing the "cutting" branch of the family are O.E. feol (see file (n.)); O.C.S. pila "file, saw," Lith. pela "file." The noun is from 1602. The verb meaning "to color with paint" (c.1250) is earlier than the artistic sense of "to make a picture of" (c.1290) and older than painting in the sense of "an artist's picture in paint" (c.1388 ); but painter is older in the sense of "artist who paints pictures" (1340) than in the sense of "workman who colors surfaces with paint" (c.1400); from O.Fr. peintour, from L. pictor, from pingere. As a surname, it is attested from 1240, but impossible to say which sense is meant.

c.1386, "an artist's fine brush of camel hair," from O.Fr. pincel "artist's paintbrush" (Fr. pinceau), from L. penicillus "paintbrush, pencil," lit. "little tail," dim. of peniculus "brush," itself a dim. of penis "tail". Small brushes formerly used for writing before modern lead or chalk pencils; meaning "graphite writing implement" apparently evolved late 16c. Derogatory slang pencil-pusher "office worker" is from 1881; pencil neck "weak person" first recorded 1973. To pencil (something) in "arrange tentatively" is attested from 1942.
c.1380, "science of optics," from O.Fr. perspective, from M.L. perspectiva ars "science of optics," from fem. of perspectivus "of sight, optical" from L. perspectus, pp. of perspicere "inspect, look through," from per- "through" + specere "look at" (see scope (1)).

The fig. meaning "mental outlook over time" is first recorded 1762.
c.1420, from L. pictura "painting," from pictus, pp. of pingere "to make pictures, to paint, to embroider," (see paint). The verb, in the mental sense, is from 1738; pictures "movies," short for moving pictures, is from 1912. Picture post-card first recorded 1899. Phrase every picture tells a story first attested 1906, in an advertisement for kidney pills; a picture is worth a thousand words (1921).
c.1325, "to repeat," from O.Fr. rendre "give back, present, yield," from V.L. *rendere (formed on analogy of its antonym, prendre "to take"), from L. reddere "give back, return, restore," from re- "back" + comb. form of dare "to give" (see date (1)).

O.N. skapa, Dan. skabe, O.Fris. skeppa, O.H.G. scaffan, Ger. schaffen), from PIE base *(s)kep- "to cut, to scrape, to hack" (see shave), which acquired broad technical senses and in Gmc. a specific sense of "to create." O.E. scieppan survived into M.E. as shippen, but shape emerged as a regular verb (with pt. shaped) by 1500s. The old past participle form shapen survives in misshapen. Phrase Shape up (v.) is attested from 1865 as "progress;" from 1938 as "reform;" shape up or ship out is attested from 1956, originally U.S. military slang, with the sense being "do right or get shipped up to active duty."

Spelling modified by influence of Gk. stylos "pillar." Meaning "mode or fashion of life" is from 1770; that of "mode of dress" is from 1814. Stylish is first recorded 1797 in "Sense and Sensibility" (the adj. good is understood); and stylize is 1898, from Ger. Stilisieren.
1817, from Fr. technique "formal practical details in artistic expression," noun use of adj. technique "of art, technical," from Gk. Tekhnikos. form of tekhne "art, skill, craft, method, system," probably from PIE base *tek- "shape, make."

More curious terms that have come up lately; edited into the main list with the others.
I hit my word limit on that first post, so I shifted some things around and broke it into two parts.

Tour Update by OzLuke (incl video pt. 1)
- Written by Pauly
- Published in Tour Report
- Read 12994 times
After two massive shows in South America we weren't sure what to expect as the "Join The Army / Déjà Vu Tour" kicked it off in Reno NV on the 15th, but all I can say is first two SxTx gigs have been nothing short of f*#king insane! The Reno crew were wild and crazy, with a fast flowing circle pit forming right from the start, and running right to the end. It's been awesome seeing the pace of the band now, the new set list is a wicked thing, and has to be heard to be believed, seriously it's so sick, and it is bringing the absolute best out in everyone. The re-invented tracks like "Possessed To Skate" and "Suicidal Maniac" have been blowing peoples minds, Clark has been on fire! Big thanks to the Reno crew and their hospitality, we had a great show.
Next stop was Portland OR, and the famous old Roseland Theatre, and holy f*#k what a show! The paint was nearly peeling off the walls, a huge amount of energy from the band and the crowd, it seems the front row is getting heavier and heavier, but still, there's room enough for a few of the newer little cycos to chill and take it all in. It's great to see the new generation of SxTx fans signing up to Join The Suicidal Army, love seeing the groms go hard. Big ups to Greg for lending us his amp, thanx mate! If these two shows are any indication then this is going to be a HUGE tour, bordering on out of control, some of the absolute best SxTx I've ever seen in my life!
Check out the first tour report video below!

News Brief March 2013
March 2013
As I joined my colleagues recently to testify in support of restored funding for New Hampshire's four-year public universities and colleges, it was heartening to look around the State House hearing room and see the students, parents, and business leaders who took time out of their busy days to testify as well.
As UNH Advocates, they represent nearly 1,500 citizens who have signed up to support our efforts to keep UNH affordable for New Hampshire families. Their personal stories typify the life-changing opportunities that we provide— opportunities that many could not access otherwise.
These advocates inspire us because we know how much UNH means to them, and how much more they can offer to New Hampshire because of the outstanding public higher education our citizens can access right here in the Granite State.
Best regards,
Parents, students, businesses testify in Concord
A UNH student from Manchester whose parents were unemployed her last two years of high school. A couple from Alstead whose family debt will far exceed their home mortgage if they help their two children pay for college. A one-time college dropout who earned a college degree late in his career and became New Hampshire's top homeland security official.
Career Fair draws record numbers
A record 140 employers attended the UNH Career Fair last week, boosting business participation by nearly 60 percent and signaling that employers recognize the value of UNH talent as the economy recovers.
"A great, great career fair. One of the BEST the entire state has to offer," wrote Paul Driscoll, a recruiter for Comcast's Northeast Division in Manchester.
The semi-annual fair drew some 1,000 UNH students and alumni in all disciplines, prompting organizers to move to larger quarters in the Whittemore Center. The jobseekers came well prepared, with many taking advantage of coaching on resume writing and interviewing skills, said Krystal Hicks, coordinator of field experience for the UNH Advising and Career Center.
The fair earned a resounding review from Sunday News business columnist Christopher Thompson, who offered some sound advice to job-seeking students.
North Country natives help region's students attend UNH
With the help of North Country natives Craig Rydin '73 and Linda Labnon Rydin '71, more students from Berlin, N.H., will be able to attend UNH.
Research dairies earn goldThe Dairy Farmers of America's recent Gold Quality award for the two research and teaching dairies at UNH reflects the students' dedication to best practices for farm safety and sanitation.
"Hitting top quality criteria for milk means we have low somatic cell count, bacteria count, and pre-incubation count," says Jon Whitehouse, manager of the Fairchild Dairy Teaching and Research Center. "It indicates the cleanliness of our milking operation as well as the health of the cows." MORE >>
N.H. Farm to school grant supports "gleaning"A grant to New Hampshire Farm to School, housed in the Sustainability Institute at UNH, will facilitate an unusual initiative aimed at reducing food waste and bringing fresh, local produce to those in need. The grant from the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, for more than $38,000 will support "gleaning," the collection of leftover crops from farmers' fields.
With roots in the Bible, gleaning involves picking produce from farmers' fields after the fields have been commercially harvested or on fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest. With this grant, New Hampshire Farm to School will coordinate the state's first regional gleaning networks to harvest and gather fresh produce from New Hampshire farms and distribute it to those in need. MORE >>


text: The new 1,000-car courthouse garage will open to employees in June 2014. Crews are putting finishing touches to the structure as it nears the finish line. Decorative trellises and protective canopies have been installed along Andrews along with planters, landscaping and sidewalk work. Notices for parking assignments will be going out shortly.

Franklin High School renovations win support
Middle school referendum fails to win majority
Franklin - Voters on Tuesday approved two of the three school referendum questions, opting to pay for improvements at Franklin High School but not at Forest Park Middle School.
The estimated property tax impact will be 52 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation, meaning that a home valued at $200,000 will be taxed $104 annually to fund the projects.
Unofficial results Wednesday indicated relatively close votes for all three questions.
The first question, asking for expansion of academic space and renovation of facilities at the high school, was approved 53 percent to 47 percent.
The second question, asking for a new auditorium, music and art venues, and expanded parking at the high school was approved 51 percent to 49 percent.
The third question, asking for a new gym, expansion of music and cafeteria space, and more parking with an improved traffic flow at the middle school, was turned down 52 percent to 48 percent.
Listening was key
School officials were happy with the results.
"Overall, it was a good night," Superintendent Steve Patz said. "We felt good about our process. We were transparent in presenting all the details throughout the process.
"I am very appreciative of those who supported us. I understand the reasons why those who did not support us for economic reasons."
Patz said the district will begin planning the expansion and renovation details next week. The project is expected to take up most of the next two years, working around the academic schedule. He also noted that the district will work within its budgets to address a few needs at the middle school.
"We'll certainly see what we can do to address certain aesthetic needs," he said.
Debbie Larson, a School Board member since 2003, said the results left her emotional.
"I am so excited and grateful to the community," she said. "This was successful because we listened to our community and we followed what they indicate were needs."
Credit due
She said much of the credit goes to Patz, especially in light of the district's failure to pass a $77 million referendum five years ago to replace Franklin High School.
"When we interviewed Dr. Patz, we told him we wanted a superintendent who could walk us through the referendum process - and that's exactly what he did," she said.
In fact, Patz said, he has had past referendum success with a similar process in Wisconsin districts serving Chilton and Sparta.
She also pointed to help from an anonymous sign maker who posted black and gold signs along major roads stating "Franklin Public Schools - Vote Yes Times Three"
"No one knows where they came from, but I think they helped," Larson said.
Community benefit
Larson also said one of the reasons why the high school referendums passed while the middle school failed is a matter of community identity.
"The high school is the centerpiece of the community," she said. "Even people who don't have kids in the schools identify with it because they come to football games and they saw that having an auditorium would be of great value.
"This is a great accomplishment, and I know the community will be happy with the results."

Flatiron Flyers, new junior team in Boulder
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
A new, junior team is starting up in Boulder, the Flatiron Flyers which appears from the information I have received to be a team for new juniors or for juniors that probably will not someday race in the TDF... kind of like 99% of the cycling teams in Colorado, except this one targets youth.
If you are interested then attend their kickoff meeting which will be held Wednesday Jan 30, from 6:30 - 8pm at RockyMounts in Boulder. For more information email firstname.lastname@example.com

Rated 5 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by BexShops Really great value! In all fairness, I snatched this up in an online clearance for $30, which made it a phenomenal deal. But even at regular price, this is a very well-made piece of furniture. I've never bought furniture from World Market before, so didn't know what to expect, but assembly was straightforward, all the pieces were clearly labeled and the holes were predrilled, etc. Plus, every screw, dowel, etc. came with one extra so we had spare parts if needed. We're using it as a bar. Highly recommended! February 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ron13 Great product! Great product! Met all expectations and pleasantly surprised to find it available, and assembled to view, at my local store. Good design, materials and instructions. Also it was great that there was one extra of all hardware (screws, dowels etc.) just in case. Someone really made an effort to offer a quality product! :) April 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Klba Love this! Color is true to photo. Was packed well...all pieces were in great shape when I opened the box. I put it together myself with a screwdriver in about 30 minutes. The directions were easy to follow and it came with more than enough hardware. Looks cute sitting on my deck. I love it! March 25, 2013

La Monnaie ¦ MM Extra ¦ 1 FILM / 1 ARTIST ¦ Intro
Andrea Breth
Films feed the imagination of certain composers and directors of opera. The Monnaie and the Galeries cinema are once again offering, during the season 2012-2013, regular events which will help you to understand the poetic universe of some of the great contemporary artists that are part of our programme. The idea is a simple one: each guest artist is free to choose one or more films. To accompany the showing of these films the artist will be invited to talk for 45 minutes, explaining and justifying their choice and evoking the personal links they cultivate with cinema in the context of their artistic activities.
Andrea Breth proposes The Hunter by the Iranian director Raffi Pitts. After the showing of the film Andrea Breth will talk with Camille De Rijck – an unscripted conversation that will cover the worlds of cinema, theatre and opera.
