"The award is an extraordinary recognition for the Conservatory of Music," said Suzanne Farrin, Director School of the Arts Conservatory of Music. "Confession," was not only a new production, but also a world premiere of a new opera conceived, designed, built, and performed entirely by Purchase College students and faculty."
The opera was composed by Purchase Classical Composition student Raphael Lucas to a libretto by Jacque Trussel and Margaret Vignola. This was everyone's first attempt at writing an orginal opera.
The first prize award was was made at the National Opera Association's Chamber Opera Composition Competition held at its National Convention in San Antonio, Texas. This biannual competition to recognize new compositions of chamber operas had over 35 new opera compositions submitted by professional composers and librettists from around the United States.
The award includes a fully staged production of the entire work at next year's convention at the University of Memphis where hundreds of opera companies, music educators, singers, conductors and producers will hear the new work. Several have already expressed interest in staging it at their respective schools and professional companies.
The composer Raphael Lucas came to Purchase from Southern France to pursue an undergraduate degree in composition and is now a master's student in composition at the Manhattran School of Music.

There is now only one reason left to watch Floyd Mayweather, Jr. box.
You do not watch in expectation of seeing a competitive fight because it has been so long since he's been in one you have to go back to Jose Luis Castillo 11 years ago to find it. You do not watch in expectation of him being beaten because he has long ago made clear that for the time being at least the only people who could do that are dishonest or incompetent judges at ringside, or himself.
So why do you continue to watch after the way he undressed and embarrassed previously undefeated junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo'' Alvarez Saturday night at the sold out MGM Grand Garden Arena?
You watch for the same reason you would watch Yo Yo Ma play the cello or Mikhail Baryshnikov dance or Miles Davis launch into a jazz rift so bizarre you have no idea what he is trying to do, you only know no one else could do it.
You watch to see a genius at work.
"Boxing is like jazz,'' former heavyweight champion George Foreman said recently. "The better it is the less you understand it.''
For many that is the case with Mayweather, who won the most lopsided majority decision in boxing history Saturday night by mystifying and mastering young Alvarez and apparently putting to sleep a myopic judge named C.J. Ross, who somehow concluded she had seen a draw when most everyone else with a view of the fight and eyes to see it felt he'd lost no more than two rounds and very likely none.
Yet Mayweather's brilliance is so blinding it can lead people to argue they are not seeing what they just saw. They argue he can't punch or that he is too defensive or is a boringly safety first practitioner of a sport that rewards aggression and violence.
They say he ducked this guy or that guy or is more of a master matchmaker than a master artisan plying the most difficult and dangerous of trades.
Those who say these things are as silly sounding as the few who gave Canelo Alvarez a chance to defeat Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in one of the most overhyped sparring sessions in boxing history. Mayweather was paid a guaranteed $41.5 million for the fight, $500,000 of which he gave back to purchase tickets himself, because he is the face of his sport and the finest fighter of his era. The fight attracted the largest live gate in Las Vegas history, $20,003,150, and sold over 23,000 more closed circuit seats in Las Vegas at $100 each. The pay-per-view numbers are as yet unknown and while they seem unlikely to approach the all-timer record set by Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya in 2007 of 2,552,566 they may yet well eclipse the all-time pay-per-view gross of an estimated $137.5 million also set in that fight because the average pay-per-view charge was $15 more than in 2007.
If all those people watched for the chance to get a glimpse of a great artist working on canvas they got their money's worth. If they watched in search of a boxing match, they did not because Canelo Alvarez proved to be far more Hype than Hit Man, far more victim than the embodiment of viciousness. That is not the master's fault. That is the student's and those who bought into a story line without looking at the resumes behind it.
"Canelo brought a checkerboard to a chess match,'' said Bernard Hopkins, the 48-year-old reigning light heavyweight champion not long after Mayweather had baffled, bemused and battered his 23-year-old challenger for 12 lopsided rounds to lay claim to the unified junior middleweight title and put it alongside the welterweight one he already held. "Here's the difference, that was a Ph.d vs. a GED.''
Hopkins' analysis could not have been more correct. By now you have seen or heard of the one-sided nature of the fight. You are aware Alvarez (42-1-1, 30 KO) came nowhere near challenging Mayweather (45-0, 26 KO) or even hitting him harshly and have come to grips with the fact those like myself who tried to warn you that this kid had no idea what he had gotten himself into and no ability to do anything about it but take a licking until his face began to turn red from embarrassment and purple from bruising were telling the truth.
So why watch next May when Mayweather said he would next be back in the ring on what he termed "Cinco de Mayo-weather,'' the traditional Mexican holiday weekend that hosts in Las Vegas one of the biggest pay-per-view shows of the year?
The reason is the same reason we watch excellence of any sort. It is the reason we revere mastery of any art form be it blowing glass or landing blows. You watch because to not watch is to deny yourself a moment that will not come along very often in a lifetime.
Watching Floyd Mayweather move inside a boxing ring is a joy. Watching the mental mastery he holds over space and distance and timing is like watching Michelangelo take a piece of stone and turn it into David, the greatest statue ever made.
Was it worth $74.95 Saturday night to see him in the ring against Canelo Alvarez? Well, that depends on what you went for.
If it was to see a fight you went to the wrong place as Mayweather warned you earlier in the week when upon his arrival at the MGM Grand he said ""This is not a fight. This is what we call an event.''
That's what it was so if you were expecting a fight you should have shut off your television after Danny Garcia again proved he is more than people say he is by dismantling with his mind as well as his right hand Lucas Matthysse. But if you went there for a higher calling, if you tuned in to watch a Grand Chess Master work you were well served.
What is the price of seeing greatness even if only for an hour? It's not priceless but it's well worth $74.95.
Man I bought into the hype...I was hearing the Rocky theme,and getting inspired by side-show promotion. I had it all wrong...I kept hoping it would turn into the Jersey Joe Walcott vs Marciano classic where tenacity and pressure might create the perfect opening...Makes me appreciate Marciano more, Alvarez less...Bring on that Siberian guy Prodoloukov (don't know the spelling), that rattled Bradley, and is trained by Freddy Roach...He knows what he'd have to do....
the only fighters that can beat floyd, or give it a real try are, ggg at 154-160(if he can make 154 healthy)
and possibly pacman.......
To me this article is a bit over-the-top, but ...
"Watching the mental mastery he holds over space and distance and timing is like watching Michelangelo take a piece of stone and turn it into David, the greatest statue ever made."
EASY now, easy.....lets not go too far..
a very good performance yes. a mastery performance or hit and dont get hit, yes again....
but lets not get carried away and say this is perfection.....come on now....
A lot of pre-fight stuff in the media described Canelo as a 'pressure fighter' and I remember thinking, he isn't really. Canelo likes to box and raise the tempo in spots but he ain't gonna pressure you all night. Feet too slow, doesn't fight at a quick enough tempo - barely squeaked by outboxing Trout and outclassed by PBF. It needs a pressure fighter of the calibre of Duran in Montreal to trouble Floyd. A long-armed, quick, boxer-puncher in Hearns mode could trouble him. Pacquaio could win rounds. Style-wise, I maintain Amir Khan has the best shot at outboxing PBF and winning seven rounds. However, his chin won't hold up and PBF will stop him before scorecards are required. Despite that I'd rather see Khan v PBF than Garcia, Alexander, Trout, Cotto, etc. There are no pressure fighters up to the job and Khan as a pure boxer has a shot at troubling PBF.
It was an impressive performance by Mayweather, given the fact that he was taking on a bigger, stronger, and younger opponent. However, just like most Mayweather performances (probably since the Corrales fight), there is a hint of disappointment in that it left me a wanting a bit more. I realize he is risk-averse by nature, but I would love to see him put his foot on the accelerator and actually try for a stoppage. To me, he sat on his lead the last three rounds (I scored them all for Alvarez), leading me to score the fight 116-113. Maybe I'm asking for too much. Mayweather has the ability to be more offensively-oriented, but he's content to throw one or two punches at a time. While I can certainly appreciate his talent and his ring IQ, for me he's not particularly entertaining to watch. There is no question that he's the best fighter of his era, and I don't see anyone on the horizon that can beat him (unless he steps up and fights one of the middleweight titlists, which he most certainly will not). A fight against Lara or Trout might be interesting, but neither of those guys would be an effective pay-per-view B-side. I'd even settle for seeing him take on James Kirkland at 154, if Kirkland could ever get his life together. In my opinion, given the glaring holes in his resume during his prime (avoiding Casamayor, Freitas, and Steve Johnson at 135, bypassing Kostya Tszyu at 140, and sidestepping Williams, Margarito, Pacquiao, and prime Cotto at 147), the only way he can meaningfully enhance his legacy is to take on a middleweight beltholder. I realize this is probably not a popular opinion, and all the Mayweather fans will call me a "hater" (such a moronic term) because I don't bow down at his feet, but so be it.
Mayweather did look brilliant, but who does he fight next?
i agree Matthew. i am a huge fan of floyd, but i see the same things you do. i want more, he does coast and he is a safety first fighter...do yourself a favor, dont go back and watch the corrales fight, it will have you wanting more and we will never get that floyd again..
i rewatched some of the fight and canelo did do a few things well, when he went to the body he was scoring and hitting floyd pretty well, but floyd understands the game and everytime canelo scored he came back and scored himself with cleaner punches...
who is there left to fight which could garner the pay day floyd wants?
maybe khan in england if khan can win impressively...
no one else besides pac would really have a public interest....
unless floyd moves up to fight a mw for a belt, which the interest would be historic....that would see the ppv
i dont see him taking on that challenge though
A fight in England against Khan would bring a big payday and probably do good PPV numbers, but us hardcore fans know that fight would be a mismatch. On one hand, Mayweather might actually score a kayo. Your point is correct; he really has few big-money options at 147 or 154. His most significant move would be to fight a middleweight beltholder, but we know he won't do it.
Only guy that gave Money May a fight has been and will be Cotto. Reason is because the guys savy and grit is what makes him the best Money has seen. I only see GGGas a threat and if not...Money May will coast into the sunset as one of the best that has ever lived.
I'm on board with Matthew. I always think I will be labeled a hater too but I know what I think. Do you think Mayweather would have fought Hearns, Duran or Leonard? I don't think so. Or would he even have fought Benitz or Cuevas? But people want to put him in the same boat as them. He is a great defensive wizard I can't deny but I would love to see him step it up. I don't know if he will ever be able to undo the fights he didn't have as far as legacy and then there are always stipulations for every fight. And the fact is I think he would have beaten, or at least possibly beaten, all the fighters of this era. I would like to see him fight a high volume puncher too. When I see an entertaining fight I think OMG it is round six and it feels like round three with Mayweather fights I think it's only round three it feels like round six. Great skills, boring as hell fights.
Good points, Dave. If Mayweather wouldn't fight Paul Williams, I can't see him wanting any part of Thomas Hearns. The worst part about it is that when you look at all those guys that Mayweather avoided, I would pick Floyd to beat nearly all of them (I think Margarito and Williams would have worn him down with their high volume punching and sturdy chins). The problem is, we'll never know. To me, his legacy would be enhanced had he fought all or most of those guys, even if he did lose once or twice.
mayweather is great yes but no way he beats Duran, Hearns or Leonard. And we know he would never step up to fight hagler at mw like all those guys did...
Instead of seeing Mayweather challenged, I'd just like to see him get more aggressive. These guys can't beat him anyway. Why not just blow them out?
At one point, he stepped inside on Canelo behind a high guard and fired off a sick three-punch combination. Left hook to the body, right hook to the body, left hook up top.
Had he done that consistently, Canelo would've crumbled like the Walls of Jericho. He only did it to retaliate because he'd gotten hit cleanly with a hard jab he didn't like. That's the dragon coming out in him.
I want to see that more but the risk makes it hard for his temperament. So let him go feast on guys his size. As long as blows them out.
We all know that he could probably cherry pick his way to a 160 -- and maybe even a catchweighted 168 championship -- vs. guys like Darren Barker and Chavez Jr. by just sticking, moving and pot shooting all night.
But I think it's time to fight the 140s and 147s with a vengeance. And that vengeance might as well start with the holy (cash) cow Amir Khan.
That could be explosive.
floyd knocks chinny khan out in 4 if he wants....khan has speed but that is just a tool. if you dont apply the tool correctly it is useless.... i have a sledgehammer but if i slide it across the floor into the wall the wall will never come down....the tool is useless if not applied correctly...
saying if floyd would have just thrown combinations consistently he would have gotten canelo out of there is hypothetical.....
its the same as saying if canelo had followed the right game plan he would have won easily........
which you totally dismissed in "reality"
Confession: I don't have a lot of interest in seeing Mayweather-Khan. I'd watch it if I could do so cheaply or after it appeared on YouTube, but I certainly wouldn't spring for PPV.
Never thought for one second Alvarez would be able to bridge the speed or, frankly, talent gap. Having said that, that was all very impressive. Apart from Lil Wayne, which was an abomination. Haters gotta hate!
I really don't get the rapper entrance either. Lil Wayne was horrible. French Montana with Adrien Broner was just awful.
They should do it like LL Cool J at one of Manny's fights. That was nice.
I miss Prince Naseem's entrances. They were epic.
I'm done hearing about fights Floyd Didn't take 8 years ago, Someone needs to make a Floyd Appreciation Topic and a Floyd Hate Topic and let people say how they feel...
He wins fights, Dominates most fights and people say he shoulda fought like he did when he was 25, he shoulda fought this guy and fought that guy..
He just made the Great Red Hope look like a C-Class fighter but people still want more.. It's not his fault these guys can't hit him...
The Man is the Greatest Fighter since Sugar Ray Leonard (In my opinion) and he has been dominating for almost 2 decades, who else can say they did that???
If Pac-Man looks sharp against Rios, then the talks will definitely have to happen, that's still the biggest fight out there and Floyd would easily get a Minimum of $50 Million for that one!!!
Money May-Pac has to happen
If Pac-Man looks sharp against Rios, then the talks will definitely have to happen, that's still the biggest fight out there and Floyd would easily get a Minimum of $50 Million for that one!!!
Money May-Pac has to happen
how anyone who has been in boxing or has been a life long student of it could have swallowed the BS about Canelo leading up to the fight shoulsbe ashamed of themselves lol it made no sense, no validity at all .. he was nothing ,he fought no one really in 42 fights of any stature.. floyd fought a Mexican name brand and people paid 74 bucks for it hahahahaha insane ...
I was satisfied with the way Floyd fought, it was a great fight and epic display skill and talent. I admit I was a Floyd hater in the past, but I have grown to appreciate his abilities. Yes he should have fought certain fighters in the past, including Paul Williams (Tony Margarito turned out to be a fraud so no) but in recent years he has beaten all of his mandatory challenges. As for Pacquiao, it goes both ways Bob Arum and Floyd are avoiding contracting business with each other.
IMO no one beats May up to 147, including manny, but I'd still like to see the fight. I'd like to see the Khan fight as well, that would prob not go into the 5th round unless Mayweather takes it easy on him or hurts his hand early. Khan's reckless aggression coupled with his immense speed would make the fight very entertaining while it lasted
And if Alvarez did use the right game plan he would have performed much better, he was walking right into that straight right, no lateral movement
i rewatched some of the fight yesterday, in round 7 canelo was flat footed....
also he had floyd on the ropes and threw 3 shots at his head...
what did i say for 3 months, body , step right, body, dip out and repeat...
he did none of that....
floyd is a master at frustrating opponents and getting them to head hunt

Google shores up security following PRISM revelations
In an arms race against the government
SECURITY EXPERTS at Google are involved in a cat and mouse game of security and encryption work against the government.
In an interview with the Washington Post the firm's VP of security said that the firm is fighting a battle and is struggling to keep ahead of a very adept rival.
"It's an arms race," said Eric Grosse, VP of security engineering at Google. "We see these government agencies as among the most skilled players in this game."
Grosse wasn't talking about just the US, as other governments that are known to have an ear to the ground, and fibre-optic cables, are China and the UK.
He did say that Google is fiercely protective of its data and is not about to lie down and hand over its documents and data.
In order to avoid this the firm runs communications through a collection of servers and data centres, according to the report, and will never weaken its encryption systems to please the peering eyes of government spooks. "This is a just a point of personal honor," he said. "It will not happen here."
Last week we heard that the NSA has more backdoors than an illegal drinking den. According to the latest trove of documents provided by the Guardian as part of Edward Snowden's surveillance revelations, the NSA is all over encryption and has access just about anywhere people are talking.
The US Office of the Director of National Intelligence released its own statement, saying that it was not keen on reports about it and overreach, and would like people to consider the good that it does.
"As we have said previously, the United States collects foreign intelligence - just as many other governments do - to enhance the security of our citizens and protect our interests and those of our allies around the world," said the statement released by US Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.
"The intelligence Community's efforts to understand economic systems and policies and monitor anomalous economic activities is critical to providing policy makers with the information they need to make informed decisions that are in the best interest of our national security."
Today Yahoo released its first transparency report. It said that it was not allowed to include details about national security requests. µ

Johnny Depp Rips Ricky Gervais in "Life's Too Short" Confrontation (VIDEO)
Ricky Gervais famously tweaked Johnny Depp (among others) in a blistering monologue at last year's Golden Globes.
Now the two have a mock confrontation in a clip from Gervais' new series "Life's Too Short" – except, according to Gervais, a lot of people seem to think it's genuine!
"This is why mankind is finished," Gervais jokes on Twitter. "Loads of people think the Johnny Depp clip is real. I kid you not. It is 100% scripted! Unbelievable."
We reported about Depp's appearance on "Life's Too Short" last March, and can assure anyone who has doubts – the chilly standoff between the two stars is a joke.
An awkward, uncomfortable, but very funny joke.

Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is up for pre-order at £650
But Carphone Warehouse has got it cheaper
KOREAN HARDWARE MAKER Samsung's Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 tablet is now available to pre-order, but only for those who have a spare £650 burning a hole in their pocket.
The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro was unveiled at CES in January as a plus-sized tablet stuffed full of business focused features. Just weeks after its unveiling the tablet has gone up for pre-order on the Samsung website for the princely sum of £649.99 upfront, £250 more than Apple's cheapest iPad Air model.
For that you'll get the WiFi-only 32GB Galaxy Note Pro 12.2, and Samsung very generously bundles a free gamepad along with free delivery for those who pre-order it ahead of the tablet's release on 4 February.
Samsung doesn't seem to be taking orders for the higher capacity 64GB model yet, nor the version that comes with 4G LTE support.
The Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 has a 12.2in 2560x1600 resolution Super Clear LCD display and the WiFi-only model has a Samsung octa-core Exynos 6 processor. The WiFi with 3G and 4G model, however, will ship with a quad-core Qualcomm processor instead.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 12.2 also features Google's Android 4.4 Kitkat mobile operating system that comes heavily skinned in Samsung's new Magazine UX, which furnishes the tablet with a Flipboard-style homescreen. There are bunch of business focused apps pre-loaded too, along with support for Samsung's S Pen stylus.
Other specifications and features include an 8MP rear-facing camera, a 2MP front-facing camera, a 9,500mAh battery, and a microSD card slot to expand the tablet's memory by up to 64GB.
According to Carphone Warehouse, the release of the Note Pro will be followed by the release of the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro lineup in April.

VIDEO: Go 'Behind the Scenes' of First Practice
TEMPE, Ariz. – The Sun Devil soccer team commenced preparations for its 2014 season on Wednesday night with a two-hour practice at Sun Devil Soccer Stadium.
The training session was the first of several the Sun Devils will have before officially opening the regular season in two weeks. Eighth-year head coach Kevin Boyd said Wednesday's session was about easing into concepts for what is a relatively young squad. Of the 27 players on the roster, 10 are newcomers while three others redshirted last year.
"We are trying to define our roles a little bit and get the new players accustomed to the way that we play," said Boyd, the program's all-time leader in career wins. "We want them to learn various elements within our system like how to keep a ball, how to defend – the stuff that makes us who we are."
The team spent Wednesday's practice going through various defending drills. Following the practice, Boyd asked the team what its assessment of the training session was. More specifically, he asked them if they could quantify it with a letter grade.
"They thought as a whole they battled fairly well," said Boyd. "They thought they needed a little more enthusiasm out there. That was one of their main points and so they rated themselves a 'B' because of that."
Boyd added that he was impressed with the play of the new players, several of whom could have a significant impact this season.
"I thought (freshman midfielder) Aly Moon played well. She's very good on the ball. I thought (freshman forward) Jessica Raybe was good. She has a good understanding of the game as a whole. (Freshman midfielder) Madison Kmetko did a pretty nice job as well. (Freshman) Madison Stark in the outside back also did a solid job. As a whole, I thought they did a pretty good job. It was nice seeing (freshman) Lexi Bounds in goal. She has good feet and that makes a difference for us."
Although new to the program and to college as a whole, Boyd said he does not expect the freshman class to have any issues getting acclimated to their new environment. In addition to the time they will have spent on campus before the fall semester starts later this month, Boyd also credits the program's culture with the smooth transition new players have at ASU.
"Most of them have been taking (summer school) classes and have been here over a month and so that settles down some of the nerves," explained Boyd. "I also think our returning players do a wonderful job of embracing them, bringing them into the fold and teaching them what being a Sun Devil is all about. They get them to smile, have some fun and realize it's not all that intimidating."
The Sun Devils return six regular starters from last year's team that went 9-8-2 and came just short of earning the program's fourth NCAA Tournament appearance in a five-year span. Included among the returning starters are junior forward and leading scorer Cali Farquharson (2013 All-Pac-12 Second Team, 2013 NSCAA All-Pacific Region Second Team) and junior defender McKenzie Berryhill (2013 All-Pac-12 Second Team, 2013 NSCAA All-Pacific Region Third Team).
Earlier this summer Farquharson and Berryhill were both participants in the U.S. Under-23 Women's National Team's training camp. Also getting national team experience last month was redshirt sophomore midfielder Lucy Lara, who participated in Mexico's women's national team's training camp.
"Our program was thrilled for all three of them to get that kind of experience," said Boyd. "I want them to carry themselves like they're national team players and I think they will. In addition to what it says about them, I think it also reflects on the way we develop players in our program. It's nice to say your program is doing a good job in that area."
The Sun Devils open the 2014 regular season on Fri., Aug. 22 when they take on Texas as part of the Outrigger Resorts Shootout being hosted by the University of Hawaii. ASU will then face Hawaii on Sun., Aug. 24. In addition to its practices, the team will also have a scrimmage against Northern Arizona next Friday (Aug. 15, 7 p.m.) at ASU's West campus in Glendale.

Track List
Album Notes
Liner Note Author: Alan Robinson .
Recording information: Record Plant, Sausalito, CA; Sunset Sound Studios, Hollywood, CA; Warner Bros. Recording Studios, North Hollywood, CA; Western Recorders, Hollywood, CA.
Photographers: Donn Landee; Elizabeth George; Richard Aaron.
This 2012 Edsel two-fer combines Little Feat's last two albums with Lowell George on a double-disc set. Neither of these LPs is among the band's very best work -- George was beginning to recede from the spotlight and the rest of the band, spearheaded by pianist Bill Payne, emphasized jazz fusion just a tad too heavily -- but the best moments of both have aged very well. On Time Loves a Hero, there's the title track, the rampaging rocker "Rocket in My Pocket," and the jovial "Old Folks Boogie"; Down on the Farm has the slyly silly title track and George's two-step "Six Feet of Snow." Each record has other engaging moments -- nothing to match their early highs but music certainly worth investigating, particularly on an affordable and attractive two-fer like this. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Results tagged ' Brian McNamee '
The Ongoing Clemens Saga
Not that I enjoy posting this sort of news on my blog, but the most recent development in the Roger Clemens vs. Brian McNamee case involves McNamee claiming that he injected Clemens multiple times (either in an apartment or right in the Yankee Stadium hot tub) during the 2001 with steroids and HGH. Supposedly, the syringes McNamee handed over to the federal government some time ago even contain traces of Clemens' DNA.
As I've said many times before, I think that Clemens is one of the most obviously guilty parties of the Steroid Era. The only difference between him and pretty much all the others (McGwire, Sosa, etc.) is that Clemens (being a hothead his entire playing career) is fighting McNamee tooth and nail instead of just keeping quiet. Thus, McNamee is now bringing out his big guns.
Of course, I don't know what it says about McNamee's character that he saved syringes that Clemens wanted him to discard, but this could be one of those situations where the ends justify the means.
The "Rocket" Fizzles!
Besides all the fallout of the Alex Rodriguez steroid admission, which I will discuss on this blog in more detail in a later post, it was also recently announced that a federal judge dismissed basically all of Roger Clemens' "defamation of character" lawsuit against former personal trainer Brian McNamee, who said in last year's Mitchell Report that he injected Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone.
For once, I think the U.S. justice system got things right!! McNamee was promised federal immunity for his contributions to George Mitchell, and that is exactly what he is getting right now. So, in essence, Clemens isn't able to screw him over for just telling the truth.
As you will likely find out by reading my upcoming blog posts about steroids in major league baseball, I am a huge proponent of holding everyone (players, managers, trainers, commissioner Selig, etc.) accountable for the Steroid Era of 1994-2003. Thus, I think that Clemens is getting EXACTLY what he deserves. Whereas most players (Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro, Sammy Sosa, etc.) have completely disappeared following steroid accusations, Clemens (because he is a jerk…just ask Mike Piazza about that) decided to lie through his teeth and fight it tooth and nail. So far, though, he's not winning and I'm all for that.

There were those who thought that Ohio's new governor, John Kasich, was being heavy handed when he pursued legislation that would allow the state to crack down on pill mills, where prescription drugs were being handed out almost like candy.
Kasich can be accused of overreaching with some of his legislative initiatives, but when it comes to prescription-drug abuse, his approach was justified.
Some areas of the state have been harder hit by prescription drug abuse than others, but no area is immune. The poster child for the initiative was Scioto County, where 9.7 million prescriptions were filled for fewer than 80,000 people one year. That's about 125 prescriptions for every man, woman and child.
Kasich was joined early on by Ohio's new Attorney General, Mike DeWine, who supported House Bill 93 and even before its passage appointed attorneys in his office to launch a crackdown on prescription drug abuse.
Broad-ranged attack
H.B. 93, which Kasich signed May 20, enhances Ohio's computerized system to help identify extensive prescription-drug use, limits prescribers' ability to personally furnish certain drugs, improves licensing of and law enforcement involving pain-management clinics, and develops a statewide prescription-drug "take-back" program.
Last month, Kasich signed an executive order giving the State Medical Board the power to take immediate action against pill mills while the final rules for implementing the law are being written.
The governor and DeWine are moving quickly against a killer that established a grip on the state with few people — except the families of those who died — taking note.
In 2007, drug abuse deaths in the state of Ohio exceeded traffic deaths for the first time and about 40 percent of those deaths were attributable to prescription drugs. In the decade between 1999 and 2009, drug abuse deaths in the state more than quadrupled, from 327 to 1,373.
And down in Scioto County, where there were 125 prescriptions for every resident, there were 117 drug overdose deaths between 2000 and 2008.
On Monday, Gil Kerlikowske, the director of National Drug Control Policy, was at Cincinnati Children's Hospital to talk about the Obama administration's 2011 National Drug Control Strategy and how it could help Ohio's efforts against drugs. DeWine was there. Kerlikowske noted Ohio's recent success in shutting down some of its souther pill mills, but said that federal agents can help stem the distribution of other drugs in the tri-state area.
It will take federal, state and local efforts to reduce drug trafficking of all kinds. To help local departments take on this new initiative, DeWine has pledged the support of the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation.
looks like more big government to me
Here we go again with the government over-regulating something because SOME people abuse it. Not to mention the non-existent patient privacy due to computerized records and tracking. To investigate, charge and prosecute unscrupulous doctors who really do hand out pills like candy is too time-consuming and expensive. So all of us have to deal with being hassled when we try to get medication for a legitimate need.
dreamcatcher-I agree with all of your points 100%. The other factor that is being omitted entirely is the illegal purchasing of prescription meds on the streets and on the internet. Many who are into this excessive consumption don't get all of it through doctors. Some don't get any of it that way!
We can educate, rehabilitate, and incarcerate up to a point, but we will never get everyone off drugs. We will never stop all drug abuse. At least not without giving up every last bit of freedom we have left. This is the price we pay for our liberty. Every day they chip away at it and we lose more and more. All in the name of "fixing" what is wrong with people. If we could just pass a law to prevent people from _______, all would be right with the world.
Just another way the scum is screwing the good people. They go in for a BS reason and get pain meds because "I rolled my ankle playing basketball" and the next day they are playing basketball again and you see them at the club selling their meds. Some people have serious conditions who are in massive amounts of pain every day who NEED those medications to do simple tasks like walk to the bathroom. I was injured in the Middle East in 2005 which resulted in two fractures of L-5 and blown discs between L-1 to S-1. They did not do surgery when it happened and the bones healed wrong. I will be in constant severe pain for the rest of my life. There is NO cure. I will need these medications for the rest of my life just to function. I'm far from a drug addict! I depend on the medication to do something as little as give my kids a hug. It angers me when I know 3 out of 10 patients in that office will sell them on the street. All they do is make it hard for chronic pain sufferers to get the meds they need. If they do this, they aren't hurting those who sell their medication. They are hurting TRUE sufferers who need the medication. If you take their medication, you may as well shoot them. Most will shoot themselves eventually anyway because they can't deal with the pain.

Gateshead sign Dale duo on loan
Gateshead have signed Rochdale pair Clark Keltie and Jon Shaw on loan ahead of Saturday's Blue Square Premier home game against Crawley Town.
Shaw made his name in the Conference as a free scoring striker for Halifax Town where he scored 20 goals in 37 league games in 2007-8.
The 26 year old's career began at hometown club Sheffield Wednesday where he made 21 appearances, including eight starts, before he spent three years at Burton Albion where he was a team-mate of Daryl Clare.
The England C striker made a century of appearances for the Brewers scoring 26 goals before he joined Halifax and then Rochdale where he has been limited to six starts.
The Yorkshireman spent a productive loan spell at Crawley Town at the start of the year and has recently been on loan at Barrow where he scored five goals in 12 games.
Shaw started for Rochdale in the final league game of last season against Gillingham and then featured as a substitute in the play-off semi-final 2nd leg against the Gills.
With Graeme Armstrong and Steven Richardson not fully fit, Darren Forsyth out on loan and Armand One due to be released manager Ian Bogie is delighted to increase his options up front.
"We need someone to take the burden off Daryl Clare and Shaw certainly fits the bill," said Bogie "he is a proven goalscorer at this level and I'm delighted to have him on board."
Newcastle-born Keltie meanwhile has been on loan at Conference strugglers Chester City for the past two months having joined Rochdale from Darlington in the summer of 2008.
The central midfielder has made 34 appearances for Dale but has not featured in Keith Hill's side this season.
Keltie spent seven years at Darlington where he was first given his chance as a teenager during Mick Tait's tenure at the club.
The Tynesider, who captained the Quakers for a spell, made 173 appearances for Darlington scoring ten goals and has impressed on loan at Chester.
"Keltie ran the show for Chester when they beat us at the International Stadium in October," added Bogie "he is a player I have been aware of for some time so it is good to get him through the door.
"At 26 he has a wealth of Football League experience and I am sure he will make an impact during his time at Gateshead and help us to climb the table."

Our pilgrimage to Bethlehem was one of pleasure and sacrifice. A journey that would be forever etched on hearts and minds--a life changing event that guided us through the subsequent decades of our lives. Though it holds personal significance, it pales in comparison to a journey that took place 2000 years ago, changing the world forever. This is a story about that special evening and the thirty-three years that followed. Ironically, thirty-three years have now passed since we left our humble home, passport in hand to arrive in Bethlehm's square.The only passport for this adventure is an open heart.

A wall of marine mollusks in the middle of Istanbul
Concrete is made by mixing cement with sand and water. Construction companies in Turkey often get their sand from beaches; it may be illegal to do so, but it also costs probably much less than it would if they purchased good, clean sand from somewhere else.
One can often tell if uncleaned beach sand was used in a construction by looking at the walls surrounding new buildings, especially exclusive residential compounds.
The sidewalk along a busy street not too far from where my mother lives in Istanbul is bordered by long and tall walls that were built not too long ago from large rock fragments held together by concrete. During several walks along those walls during my recent stay in Istanbul, I had opportunities to photograph some of the members of the mollusk fauna of the beach the sand had come from.
This one seems to be one of the common cardiid shells (Cardiidae).
Here is a small scallop shell, a member of the Pectinidae, probably.
This one is complete with both valves still attached. I can't put a name on it, though.
I got the impression that, for whatever reason, bivalve shells were more common than snail shells. More careful looking, however, did reveal occasional gastropod shells.
And here is another snail, perhaps a trochid (Trochidae).
I hope the future paleontologists will be smart enough to tell that what they are looking at is artificial concrete not some unusual conglomerate fossil formation.

Here is the review by our guest contributor- Michael T. Mooney:
How do you get to PINKOLANDIA? Start out in 1973 revolution-torn Chile, set the GPS of your imagination to Closet Land, and expect to be grounded somewhere in Reagan era Wisconsin. Or, in more practical terms, just go to Two River Theater Company in Red Bank to see the exciting new play by Andrea Thome. The term 'pinko' refers to those sympathetic with communism; pink being a lighter shade of Soviet red. If the term is unfamiliar, maybe the thought provoking and imaginative PINKOLANDIA isn't quite for you.
Based on playwright Thome's real-life experiences, the story concerns young sisters Beny and Gaby, who both have been relocated by their parents from Chile to the USA to escape political turmoil. The transition has left both girls retreating into their imaginations (Closet Land) for escape: Beny into a world where's she's a beret-sporting diamond smuggler fleeing the Nazis. Gaby, the younger sister, finds solace in an icy landscape with a talking polar bear trying to escape the melting of the polar ice caps. Their real lives are consumed by their beaten-down parents, a visiting Uncle, and Beny's inability to fit in at school.
The play presents plenty of ideas - both real and symbolic - including references to THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA, THE WIZARD OF OZ and THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK. But Thome is definitely mapping adult territory here - preferably adults with some political and cultural savvy. Although the production features lots of untranslated Spanish, it remains terrifically visual, with a vibrant pop-up book set aided by brilliantly designed projections and a matching sound-scape.
Beny and Gaby are played by adult actors, a concept that worked somewhat better in Two River's 2012 production of Alan Ayckbourn's MY WONDERFUL DAY than it does here. But not because the performers aren't terrific – they are. Ultimately, however, the heightened tone and pace of PINKOLANDIA only rarely slows down for any real connection between the characters – and most of that is due to the skills of the fine cast. Maria Halan (Beny) and Annie Henk (Mom) are real standouts in a talented company of six that excels in creating a variety of vivid characters.
A trip to PINKOLANDIA is not without its challenges, but it is certainly a journey well worth taking.

I made my own shortbread crust. The combination of rhubarb and strawberry was wonderful. Instead of cooking in water, I cooked in lemon-lime juice. I ground the fruit and juices up into a purée. I added a bit more sugar. Just delicious!
Strawberry-Rhubarb Squares
From EatingWell: March/April 2013
Inspired by our love of lemon squares, we developed this healthy strawberry-rhubarb squares recipe. We slashed the butter in the shortbread crust for these strawberry-rhubarb bars, but kept the crust light and crisp with heart-healthy canola oil and a little cornstarch. A judicious amount of sugar in the filling lets the natural sweetness of the fruit shine and keeps calories in check.

Brian's exclusive forecast for Washington DC:
Today: Mostly cloudy and cooler with a high in the mid to upper 70s.
Tonight: Mostly cloudy with areas of fog. The low will be in the upper 60s.
Sunday: Mostly cloudy and mild with a high in the upper 70s.
The extended forecast calls for clouds and sun on Monday with a low in the upper 60s and a high in the mid 80s. Clouds and sun on Tuesday with a low in the upper 60s and a high in the mid 80s. Warmer and more humid on Wednesday and Thursday with a chance of an afternoon thunderstorm. The lows will be around 70 and the highs will be in the upper 80s.
Weather Summary
High pressure off the coast of New England will create an onshore flow of air over the Mid Atlantic states today. This will result in considerable cloudiness and areas of morning fog, but most areas will remain dry throughout the day. Temperatures in the lower 70s this morning will only reach the mid to upper 70s by afternoon, perhaps a few degrees warmer if some cloud breaks develop. On Sunday we can expect much of the same with an easterly fetch providing morning fog and considerable cloudiness during the day. The upcoming week will feature gradually warmer and more humid conditions with a chance of afternoon or evening thunderstorms by next Wednesday.

But if you can't throw that jab without getting countered, then you've basically got no chance in the fight!
You've done your homework. You know how to jab. You know how to move your head. You know how to listen to your coach. You know how to fight and STILL, you're getting countered.
So what do you do now?

- Run?
- Or even worse…stop throwing the jab??? *GASP*

In October 2013, fans heard the tragic news that the Jonas Brothers were cancelling the remaining dates of their tour, and disbanding the group. But today revealed some exciting news. Joe and Kevin Jonas, two former members of the group, have announced that they will be appearing for three exclusive dates in Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
These will not be musical performance shows, so if you were only looking forward to hearing your favorite JoBro classics, this is not for you. "Off the Record with Kevin and Joe Jonas" will be for the more die hard of fans to experience something completely new with the brothers; an interactive sit down with them. Fans will be able to hear stories from when the brothers were on tour view previously unseen video footage and ask the brothers questions.
Experiences like this are rare, and tickets will undoubtedly go quickly. Fans can purchase their tickets on Friday May 2 at AXS.com.
The appearance dates are :
June 5 Freehold, NJ at iPlay America
June 7 Philidelphia, PA at Keswick Theatre
June 8 Wilmington, DE at The Grand

WASHINGTON - More than 90 percent of economists predict the recession will end this year, although the recovery is likely to be bumpy.
That assessment came from leading forecasters in a survey by the National Association for Business Economics released Wednesday. It is generally in line with the outlook from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues.
About 74 percent of the forecasters expect the recession - which started in December 2007 and is the longest since World War II - to end in the third quarter. Another 19 percent predict the turning point will come in the final three months of this year, and the remaining 7 percent believe the recession will end in the first quarter of 2010.
"While the overall tone remains soft, there are emerging signs that the economy is stabilizing," said NABE president Chris Varvares, head of Macroeconomic Advisers. "The economic recovery is likely to be considerably more moderate than those typically experienced following steep declines."
One of the major forces that plunged the economy into a recession was the financial crisis that struck with force last fall and was the worst since the 1930s. Economists say recoveries after financial crises tend to be slower.
Against that backdrop, unemployment will climb this year even if the economy is rebounding, the NABE forecasters predict. Companies won't be in a rush to hire until they feel certain any recovery is firmly rooted.
For all of this year, the forecasters said the unemployment rate should average 9.1 percent, a big jump from 5.8 percent last year and up from its current quarter-century peak of 8.9 percent. If NABE forecasters are right, it would be the highest since a 9.6 percent rate in 1983 when the country was struggling to recover from a severe recession.
Some forecasters thought the unemployment rate could rise as high as 10.7 percent in the second quarter of next year. The NABE outlook from 45 economists was conducted April 27 through May 11.
With joblessness rising, consumers - major shapers of overall economic activity - likely will stay cautious, making for a tepid turnaround. And given the big bite the recession has taken out of household wealth, notably the values of homes and investment portfolios, consumers probably will stay subdued for some time.

Have you ever found yourself caught up in a daydream about what your life would be like if you were part of the "jet setting crew"?
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be able to call down to your butler, tell them to have the car brought around and your bags packed while you shot a quick message out to the airfield telling them that you'd like to head somewhere – ANYWHERE – within the next half hour?
Have you ever dreamed of just packing up your things, jumping on an airplane, and touching down halfway across the world for no other reason than it seemed interesting at the time?
If so, you are nowhere near alone – but the glamor of the jet setting lifestyle may not be all it is cracked up to be. The truth of the matter is, there are a lot of people (many of them are living the jet setting lifestyle right now, this very moment) that aren't exactly over the moon or excited about everything that comes along with it.
You see, a lot of people that lead this jet setting life we all so aspire to lead aren't feeling very happy, fulfilled, or like they are contributing to the world in any meaningful way – which actually leaves them feeling quite lonely, depressed, and more than a little blue. But that's why we have created this resource, the Jet Set Life Radio!
Jet Set Life Radio is your friend in the sky.
Filled to the brim with ideas for keeping yourself occupied on those long and lonely flights, and a few extra streaming options that are perfect for the jet setting lifestyle, we've got you covered.
You'll find podcasts, music, and real live radio pumping out of Jet Set Life Radio on a regular basis and we hope that you will allow this resource to become a big part of your life!

Whenever there is a reaching down into innermost experience, into the nucleus of personality, most people are overcome by fear and many run away. . .

A lovely picture, and so simple, but I think it is her expression that really draws one in. Exquisitely done.
