"I thought it was okay but a little dry and bland. My mom, however thought it was one of the best things I had ever made...I did add some extra butter to the stuffing."

"Can't wait to try it soundd wonderful"
Reviewed Feb. 13, 2014
"Delicious! I have a secret to keeping the stuffing inside. Instead of cutting the pocket on the outer edge, slice about halfway through the chop along the length of the bone. Then cut a pocket from the inside. I found this in a recipe 30 years ago, and my stuffing always stays put!"

Soon, Pepsi will introduce real sugar in soda drinks. PepsiCo, Inc. recently announced that it is nixing high fructose corn syrup or HFCS and artificial sweeteners from three of its soft drink beverages in the near future, citing an April 10 Yahoo Fiance report. Considering that other companies have made the move to stamp out obesity in their products, it's a fair question critics have posed: What took the company so long?
Pepsi-Cola soda products containing sugar, in some overseas markets, are realizing sharper sales from previous quarters. For example, in an April 15 report via GMANetwork , the Philippines reported 2013 net income rose by 6% to P903.5M. However, the move does not mirror the plight of the beverage giant in the United States and Europe, which are struggling to keep pace with companies that are focusing on healthier products for consumers.
The change in sugary soda drinks by Pepsi is bolstered by pressure from consumer advocate groups like "Citizens for Health." According to a report out Monday by Vending Market Watch , the non-profit group intends to name HFCS as the top food additive in packaged foods and beverages to avoid during the annual "Read Your Labels Day" event.
Still, not everyone is convinced Pepsi's use of heavy syrup, instead of Stevia (plant-based) and cane sugar, is the sole problem plaguing the beverage-maker.
Consumers shouldn't only be worried about high fructose corn syrup, they need to investigate the entire label. For example, most people don't know that consuming the ingredient "caramel coloring" in Pepsi could be worse for them than the high fructose corn syrup," says Vani Hari, a consumer activist and creator of the FoodBabe.com blog.
Nonetheless, many would agree that the new announcement represents that the company is heading in the right direction. Moreover, in the end, it boils down to consumer education and choice.
The Pepsi sugar soda drinks to be void of the additive are "Pepsi Made With Real Sugar," "Pepsi Vanilla Made With Real Sugar," and "Pepsi Wild Cherry Made With Real Sugar, said a company spokesperson. However, no debut dates have been released.

The proposal of "United Russia"
to raise the threshold for access to the
State Duma to 12.5% is targeted against YABLOKO and the Union of Right-Wing
October 7, 2002
The proposal of the "United Russia" to raise the
threshold for access to the
State Duma to 12.5% is targeted against YABLOKO and the Union
of Right-Wing
Forces. This opinion was expressed by Deputy Chairman of the YABLOKO
Sergei Ivanenko to a Rosbalt correspondent on Monday. According
to Ivanenko,
this proposal had been developed by the
representatives of the "second echelon" of "United
Russia". " First we
should learn what the real heads of the party - the Administration
of the
President of the RF - will say to this," noted Ivanenko.
The Deputy Chairman of the YABLOKO party also noted that even
if the
threshold for the access of parties into the Duma is raised, YABLOKO
and the
Union of Right-Wing Forces (SPS) will create a single front which
easily overcome the barrier for entering the State Duma."
Ivanenko also
stressed that, even though YABLOKO and SPS represent parties that
absolutely different in their political principles, they will
unite in the
event of a totalitarian threat."
We should recall here that the "United Russia" faction
proposed raising the
threshold for parties to enter the Duma from the present 5% to
12.5% from
the total number of voters. It is expected that the Duma will
soon introduce
corresponding amendments to electoral legislation.

TC TO ARTHUR HELPS; 7 August 1851; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18510807-TC-AH-01; CL 26: 121
Gt Malvern, 7 Augt, 1851
Dear Helps,
I was sorry to get your Letter here instead of at Chelsea. For the whole week before my going off, I was kept, what with Printers just finishing off, what with Bores to the Wind-dustry of all Nations, in such a toss of hurries and confusions, additional to those of the business itself, that I had no moment of repose; and durst not ask myself whether there was any chance to see you or not. Had your note come during that week, it might have been like a lantern kindled for a bewildered owl, and had very probably brought me, at that or some other hour, to Chester Square:1 but as it is—!
We got hither last Saturday night; are lodged beautifully in the private mansion of the great Doctor himself (an honour done to Literature and to Dyspepsia); and till the last day of August, here I continue, ready for any amount of splashing, sleeping, and macerating. I have some hope to get a real temporary benefit; and I have the perfect certainty of fairly trying this same Water-Cure, and so having done with the speculation upon it.
The place is by nature one of the pleasantest: beautiful wide blooming corn-bearing Plain of Severn, beautiful range of porphyry or granite hills (on the eastern roots of which we hang), with the finest variety of walks, and spring water everywhere such as I have not tasted out of Cumberland or Scotland. For the rest, a population of Donothings, with attendants to help: new houses building everywhere, of the villa,—or what I cd call the "Willa"2 sort, and all done in the present style of Willa architecture, Willa granite (made of plaster and paint), dirty little Willa windows (all of stone and lead), Willa everything;—surely the ugliest form of building ever prac[ti]ced by Adam's Posterity.—Adieu dear Helps. Yrs always

College Hockey:Geneseo outlasts Potsdam in game delayed by burst pipe
Game will resume at Clarkson Sunday; Geneseo leads by two
UPDATE: Geneseo held off a Potsdam third-period rally on Sunday for a 4-3 victory in a game postponed Saturday by a pipe burst in the Maxcy Hall Arena.
The game was continued at Clarkson's Cheel Arena, with play starting at the beginning of the second period and Geneseo holding a 3-1 lead.
Jonathan Redlick gave Geneseo a 4-1 lead with a second-period, power-play goal before Kevin MacLellan and Mike Arnold answered for Potsdam in the third.
FROM SATURDAY: The Geneseo at Potsdam game was suspended after one period with Geneseo leading 3-1. A pipe burst in the Maxcy Hall Arena under one of the goalpost's moorings, causing glycol to spew out onto the ice. The conditions and repair needed prevented the game from continuing tonight. The fix is expected to take over a day to complete.
"Certainly it's a very difficult situation for everyone involved," Potsdam coach Chris Bernard said. "You have a SUNYAC game. There's always momentum and ebbs and flows to the game and there is certainly a disturbance to that. I really appreciate Geneseo's professionalism and approach to it. There's nothing within anyone's control here. I think the way they handled themselves is first class, and I'm grateful for that."
"It doesn't surprise me with the fire alarm going off last night [at Plattsburgh]," Geneseo coach Chris Schultz said last night. "I've never seen someone drill too deep in a cement floor. It is what it is. You're going to run into stuff like this. You just got to make the best of it."
While Geneseo was finding hotel rooms at the last minute to house the team and support staff, Potsdam officials scrambled to find a place to play tomorrow. Cheel Arena at Clarkson University was able to clear ice time to accommodate the situation. The game will resume on Sunday at 2:00 P.M.
The other problem Potsdam has is to find ice time for the women's game against Cortland, originally schedule for 2:00 p.m. on Sunday at Maxcy Hall. At this time, the Pine Street Arena in Potsdam and a rink in Massena are being pursued.
For the 20 minutes that was played, Geneseo scored early, controlling the period, outshooting Potsdam, 13-4.
"Obviously, it is a bad time for this to happen," Schultz said. "It wasn't our best period of play, but we do have three pucks in the net and that's huge. We're a pretty good team playing with the lead. We're going to have to find a way regardless of what happens here to close it out."
"It was a tough start for us," Bernard said. "They're a first period team. We knew it coming in. We've got to turn the table. We've got to start putting some pressure on them offensively."
It took just 36 seconds for Geneseo to turn on the red light. From in close, Stefan Decosse picked up a loose puck and sent it over O'Neill's stick side shoulder.
A few minutes later at 4:04, Brandon Angotti made it 2-0. From the left circle, he somehow found a space between O'Neill's pads and the post on the near side.
Potsdam momentarily stemmed the tide at 7:52 on its first power play. The Bears did a good job controlling the puck in Geneseo's zone, finally finding Mike Arnold open on the right side who beat Rubeniuk.
The Ice Knights started rolling again at 11:02 on the power play, regaining the two-goal lead. Jake Yard's shot from the point was stopped by O'Neill, but he was able to find the rebound. Ryan Bulach was there in the slot to slam it through the five-hole as O'Neill was diving for the puck.
Now, the teams get approximately an 18-hour intermission before resuming the game at Clarkson's Cheel Arena.

STANFORD, Calif. – Stanford senior running back Kelsey Young is among the watch list candidates for the 2014 Doak Walker Award, as announced by the PwC SMU Athletic Forum. The award is presented annually to the nation's top college running back.
Semifinalists will be named Nov. 18 and finalists will be announced Nov. 24. The recipient will be announced live on The Home Depot College Football Awards on Thursday, Dec. 11, on ESPN. The Doak Walker Award Presentation Banquet will be held in Dallas, Texas, in February 2015.
Young, a computer science major from Norco, Calif., received consideration despite entering his first season as a predominant running back and in recognition of his ability. Despite playing alongside all-conference stars Stepfan Taylor and Tyler Gaffney, Young has carved his own reputation as a dangerous play-maker who has worked his way up the depth chart since red-shirting as a freshman.
Playing the 2013 as a split-end player, Young was someone opposing teams had to account for, often in motion before the snap. Mike Bloomgren, the Andrew Luck Director of Offense, described Young as a "football player" when asked about his natural position.
With limited reps, Young displayed his speed with a 32-yard rush against Arizona State, a 36-yard reception versus Washington State and a 27-yard touchdown run against Cal last year. He was also used on kick return duty alongside All-American Ty Montgomery.
As a sophomore in 2012, Young averaged 22.2 yards per kickoff return and played both receiver and running back. He scored the first points of the 2013 Rose Bowl Game with a 16-yard touchdown run against Wisconsin.
Stanford's season opens Aug. 30 with a 1 p.m. (PT) home game against UC Davis on Pac-12 Networks. The Cardinal plays its first three games at home with USC visiting the Stadium Sept. 6 (12:30 p.m., ABC) and Army visiting Sept. 13 (2 p.m., Pac-12 Net).
Season tickets are on sale with five sections and price levels already sold out. Three-game Mini plans are also on sale now.
Season ticket holders are eligible to purchase individual game tickets for all 2014 home games starting July 8-9. Single-game tickets go on sale July 21 with a special online-only promotion code through Stanford's Facebook and @GoStanford Twitter account. All tickets are on sale starting July 22.
Fans are encouraged to visit GoStanford.com to buy season tickets.

This hands-on program is designed to not only teach the basic concepts of implant restoration, but to also emphasize aesthetic/restorative-driven implant treatment planning, integration of biologic principles, technology, clinical techniques, restorative options, implant designs, laboratory support and aesthetic risk assessment. Choice of implant size and form will be considered with direct reference to the fabrication of aesthetic restorations. Effective communication of implant positions through the templates will be described, along with site enhancement options. The use of cement and screw-retained provisional restorations, designed to support and contour soft tissue, will be demonstrated. Techniques and criteria for immediate loading will be reviewed along with abutment options.
The course will address single unit and short-span bridge implant restorations. Participants will be able to integrate the concepts covered during the program into their next implant case. Specific step-by-step protocols, flow charts and check lists will give each participant a tremendous clinical reference that is both easy to follow and geared for the full-time general dentist. At the completion of this two-day course, you will have a comprehensive knowledge base of dental implant esthetic restorative procedures.
Practitioners who have had limited experience or success with aesthetic implant restorations and surgical specialists wishing to gain a better perspective on the aesthetic options and criteria should attend. This is a technique-based program focusing on restoring single unit implants. Although surgical topics will be covered to develop a knowledge base, surgical placement of implants will not be a part of this program.
Tuition: $995 (limited to 24 participants; includes continental breakfast and lunch each day)
Deposit: $300 (non-refundable)
Program: 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Check-in: 7:30 am Friday

To start a career in truck driving in Mississippi, you must first earn a Mississippi commercial driver's license (CDL). While classes of CDL licenses can vary from state to state, Mississippi classifies commercial vehicles that require a CDL to drive as follows:
According to Mississippi CDL requirements, applicants must be at least 17 years old, pass a vision exam and obtain a medical certificate. To transport cargo across state lines, federal regulations require truck drivers to be at least 21 years old. The interstate transportation of cargo is regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) and not by state governments. CDL applicants must then pass a written knowledge exam and a three part skills test, which includes a pre-trip vehicle inspection, a basic control skills test and an on-road driving exam. The State of Mississippi requires that applicants test in the class of vehicle for which they are trying to obtain a CDL--for example, you must test in a Class A vehicle if you wish to obtain a Class A CDL.
Additional qualifications, or endorsements, are also needed to drive a truck with air brakes, a tanker truck or a school bus. Endorsements are also needed to transport hazardous materials or to transport passengers. A background check by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is required to transport hazardous materials (also referred to as a Hazmat endorsement). A truck driving school will provide the education and on-road training needed to pass the CDL requirements in Mississippi.

Kate Upton is a Florida girl who's comfortable in a bikini, and now 19-year-old model. Upton is on the cover of the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue.
She wears a tiny red-and-brown, sparkle-covered string bikini with a view of the waters of Australia behind her as she poses for the magazine cover, which is scheduled to be unveiled on TV Monday night on "Late Show with David Letterman" on CBS.
"That was one of the first photos from the first shoot," she said in a telephone interview before the big reveal. "It was my favorite swimsuit. … I felt sexy in it but confident."

McLaren MP4-12C 2013
McLaren recently revealed details regarding the new McLaren MP4-12C 2013, and although at first glance the 2013 model isn't too different from the previous model, take a closer look and you're in for a surprise. More power, better driving experience and updated features are the key words characterizing the 2013 MP4-12C, and that's not all. With the arrival of the new model, those who already own a McLaren MP4-12C are in for a treat as well.

text: As much as there was to despise about the Oscars this year, the show-ending performance of "Over the Rainbow" by the fifth-grade chorus of Staten Island's P.S. 22, with all the winners walking out behind them, was pretty special, in no small part because the kids seemed so excited and uninhibited. They stuck around for Oprah's Oscar after-party to sing "Firework," and Katy Perry joined them halfway through the first verse, which was a genuine surprise given how Russell Brand kept insisting she was on tour. Somehow, though, it was a little less special (even with ACTUAL EXPLOSIONS on-stage). The focus is more on Perry than the kids, and her vocals are mixed much higher, so it becomes like a mash-up that doesn't entirely gel. I guess we should be grateful Katy wore an age-appropriate dress.

Ministry of Food Processing Industries, GOI
World trade in food sector and particularly dairy products grew steadily in the initial years of this century, but since 2005 the rate of growth has slackened due to rise in food product prices in 2006 – 07 and reduction in world economic growth. Indian economy and its food industry that is shouldering the responsibility of feeding a billion plus population cannot remain unaffected with the Global economic meltdown. To cop up with the growing demand, policies encouraging new investment in farming and processing infrastructures are needed. Many international brands are now entering the Indian market through marketing tie-ups, subsidiaries or joint venture with a suitable partner.
The theme of the seminar has been selected keeping in view the current scenario. With a population of 1.2 billion, India represents one of the largest consumer markets in the world. Additionally more than half of this population is below the age of 30. This young population drives the demand for processed and healthy foods. Growing affluence and higher spending capacity provide further momentum to the dairy sector. Dairy has emerged as a lucrative segment both for domestic companies and MNCs.
While there are opportunities, at the same time the industry has to address certain problems that exist in Indian dairy industry in terms of milk production, milk processing and inadequate provision of cold chain in distribution.
The organizers expect more than 500 professionals, scientists, academicians in eminent positions in the dairy, food, ingredients and pharma sector, senior officials from the Central and State Government organizations, Chief Executives from Co-operatives and private sector, NGO's, Farmers' organizations, Rural Development agencies, etc. etc. The seminar will also provide an opportunity for the exhibitors from India and abroad to showcase their products and technologies.
Eminent speakers, Chief Executives, industrialists, researchers, and other luminaries will deliberate on the issues concerning the opportunities available for the Indian dairy & food industry for improving on the quality, value additions, adoption of newer technology, export potential, foreign collaborations, marketing strategies in India and international markets, related concerns and road blocks in achieving the desired results. The seminar will also present some success stories of dairy organizations who have managed to compete globally. Significant recommendations are likely to emerge.
Keeping in view the potential of Indian dairy and food industry for integration for mutual benefits this seminar "Global Opportunities and Concerns in Dairy & Food Sector" has been conceptualized.
We cordially invite you to participate and give wide publicity to this Seminar & derive the utmost benefit by exchange of views & innovative ideas with policy and decision makers of the sector
· Eminent policy makers, Chief Executives, industrialists and other luminaries as panelists & speakers.

In the worst of times, Ji Baek gifts us with a shiny, happy symbol that reminds us of the best of times: Glitter.
"It's just fun!" says Baek of Rescue Beauty Lounge's sparkling, glittering polishes for spring ($18), available in March. Baek drove the labs crazy in her quest for the densest, chicest, most multi-faceted, long-lasting glitter polish out there. And finally, here are the fruits of her labor:
Look Rich, Be Cheap, a mix of gold and purple glitter Locavore, a combination of gold, green, blue, and silver glitter Frugalista, gunmetal and purple glitter
"And the other requirement was that the polishes had to look chic and grown up," she tells the Daily Beauty Reporter, exclusively. "I never really wore glitter because it always looked so 'little-girl,' but this one just looks like little jewels on your fingers and toes."
Beautifully stated, Ji. And astute. I slapped a little Look Rich, Be Cheap on the very tips of my fingernails before dashing out the other night, and in about three minutes flat, I had a dazzling, jewel-encrusted mani.
Keep the good times coming, Ji. We need them.

Cobbler is one of those delicious desserts that is perfect for any occasion. The only thing that's better than cobbler is an easy cobbler – one that satisfies the senses and doesn't take much time to make. This cobbler is arguably one of the easiest dessert recipes ever. It's so easy that it's perfect for those who are just beginning to bake or for those who don't like to bake, but love dessert!
This recipe takes three ingredients: a Jiffy cake mix (or ½ of a large cake mix), a can of pie filling, and some melted butter. You can use any type of canned fruit filling.
A Jiffy cake mix is available at most any grocery. Jiffy mixes were developed in the early 1930s by the grandmother of the current president of the Jiffy Company. She felt it was important that everyone be able to bake biscuits easily, so first introduced a biscuit mix and later introduced a cake mix. The Jiffy Company has been in operation since the early 1800s and now offers 22 different types of convenient mixes.
Easy Fruit Cobbler Recipe
Ingredients for Easy Fruit Cobbler:
- 1 large can cherry pie filling
- 1 box Jiffy yellow cake mix (or other 9-ounce cake mix)
- ½ cup butter, melted
Directions for Easy Fruit Cobbler:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter the bottom and up the sides of a 9x9 baking dish.
Spread the pie filling over the bottom of the prepared dish. Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix powder over the top of the pie filling. Drizzle with the melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees for ½ hour or until bubbly. Serve warm or at room temperature. Ice cream goes very well with this!
Other very easy recipes:
No Bake Banana Cake Recipe – a delicious family favorite
No bake cookie recipe – this is a classic
Apple cobbler recipe – this is delicious

The Yosemite High girls basketball team (5-3) won two games and lost two games in the Hoover Holiday Classic Tournament last week.
The Badgers opened with a 59-30 victory over Central led by a 20 point game from sophomore forward Veronica Miller who also had 14 rebounds for a double/double effort.
Another sophomore, point guard Mattaya Brown also had a double-double as did junior guard Sierra Dominici. Yosemite's only senior, Dahlia Lopez, had seven points and eight rebounds.
The second round of the tournament found the Badgers facing an old rival, section top rated Hanford High School featuring a 6-foot-1 standout Bayli McCard who has committed to play for Gonzaga next year.
In the past eight years, the teams have met in four CIF finals, each winning two. Hanford was ranked 15th in the state coming into the season.
The Badgers held their own until Sierra Dominici was forced to leave the game with a shoulder injury. Ultimately, the Bullpups pressure defense got to the depleted Yosemite backcourt, defeating the Badgers 60-39 defeat.
Leading scorer for the Badgers was Rylie McConnell with 10 points. Lopez hauled down 10 rebounds.
The Badgers then faced the Monache High Marauders on Dec. 7, a team which defeated Yosemite in the 2010 D-2 CIF Finals.
Thoughts of pay-back might have played a part in the Badgers' landslide 55-34 victory playing without leading scorer and team leader Dominici.
Miller had another 20-point effort with McConnell adding 12 and Lopez getting seven points and grabbing 13 rebounds.
Others scorers were sophomore Jessica Rudd and junior Karley Mumm, five each, junior Page Peterson, four and junior Jensen Eames and sophomore Mattaya Brown, two each.
Yosemite jumped out to a 23-14 half time lead and outscored Monache 20-6 in the third quarter before coasting through the fourth quarter for the win.
Leading scorer for Monache was Desirae Garay with 13.
In the fourth game of the tournament, Yosemite had a half time lead of 21-12 and still had the lead going into the fourth quarter against the Tulare Western but was unable to score down the stretch, losing 43-35. The Badgers could only manage 14 second half points against Tulare Western's 31.
McConnell made four 3-point shots for 12 points and Eames and Lopez each had seven each with Miller and Lopez getting 18 and 12 rebounds respectively.
Team hosts Buchanan tonight
The Yosemite girls basketball teams host Buchanan of Clovis tonight (Thursday). The varsity game at 7 p.m. following the 5:30 JV game.
Buchanan has played a rigorous schedule coming into the game. Interesting enough, Yosemite has yet to play a team this season without twice as many students as the Badgers have and have still managed a 5-3 record prior to a Tuesday night match with
Bullard, another highly ranked section team.
Boys lose three
The Badger boys team (0-5) lost three games at last week's Corcoran Tournament.
The defeats came at the hands of Kern Valley (50-43), Porterville (65-39) and Bakersfield Christian (50-45).
This weekend the team plays in the Orange Belt Classic Tournament in Lindsay.
Alumni game
Former boys and girls Yosemite players are invited to participate in a fundraising Alumni Games on Saturday, Dec. 22 at Harry Baker Gym. The girls game will be at 2:30 p.m. and the boys game at 4:30.
The cost to play is $10 per player. Players are asked to reserve their spot on Facebook Yosemite Badger Alumni Basketball page or by e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com or telephone/text to Gary Blate, (559) 760-3641.
Former Badgers playing at college
Three former Yosemite Badgers girls basketball players are playing at the college level this season. Juniors Jenay Herring and Sienna Gonzales play for the Fresno Pacific Sunbirds (1-10), a team which has been elevated to NCAA Division II. Both are contributors with Herring getting some national recognition last season.
At Division I UC Davis (3-4), 2011 YHS graduate Sydnee Fipps is the Aggies leading scorer so far this season with multiple 20-plus point games and a 14 point effort against the No. 1 team in the country, Stanford, who beat the Aggies 87-38.

This plant helps provide for the growth of Asian customers, and better respond to global demand for PVDF in applications ranging from high performance industrial coatings, offshore and chemical engineering markets to emerging sectors like lithium-ion batteries and photovoltaic panels.
Arkema has decided to speed up the extension of this new plant by announcing in January this year an additional 50% capacity. This increase should come into effect by mid-2012.
"The startup of a world-scale plant in the fast growing sector of fluorinated polymers positions us in every region of the world so we can assist our customers in their growth by providing local service and a high quality offering. It confirms our leadership in fluorinated polymers, in particular in applications that bring solutions to sustainable development, for example in new energies" stated Erwoan Pezron, Global Director of Arkema's fluorinated polymer business.

What Information Overload?
Noah Brier asks the question.
Noah Brier asks the question.
UC San Diego – "U.S. households consumed approximately 3.6 zettabytes of information in 2008, according to the "How Much Information? 2009 Report on American Consumers," released today by the University of California, San Diego. One zettabyte is 1,000,000,000 trillion bytes, and total bytes consumed last year were the equivalent of the information in thick paperback novels stacked seven feet high over the entire United States, including Alaska."
TELEGRAPH-JOURNA – "Technology was supposed to make life easier, but instead people seem to be working more and producing less, as information overload – the constant flow of e-mails, BlackBerry, Twitter, Facebook, and RSS feeds among others – takes over."
Sarah Houghton-Jan: – "What is information overload? 27 instant messages. 4 text messages. 17 phone calls. 98 work emails. 52 personal emails. 76 email listserv messages. 14 social network messages. 127 social network status updates. 825 RSS feed updates. 30 pages from a book. 5 letters. 11 pieces of junk mail. 1 periodical issue. 3 hours of radio. 1 hour of television. That, my friends, is information overload."
LawyerKM – "RSS overload continues to plague us."
Robert Ambrogi – "Information overload is crushing white-collar professionals of all ilks, but hitting lawyers particularly hard, according to a LexisNexis survey of workplace productivity published yesterday."
Law librarians are smiling right now…
I have always thought that Information Overload doesn't exist. Stephen Abram has his views on IO and special librarians.
Here's another reason why. It's all about choices.

Tonight, Sep. 3, "Big Brother" picked up after the Nomination Ceremony, when Caleb nominated Christine and Nicole for eviction. Christine was very frustrated that she was nominated and talked to herself about how the Bomb Squad always leaves her out of everything. Nicole went to Derrick in the Storage Room and immediately started crying. Derrick told her to win the Veto.
Derrick, Cody, and Caleb talked upstairs in the HoH Room, and Derrick admitted he wouldn't be that upset if Christine left. He didn't want to put all of his cards on the table until after he saw who won the Veto.
Nicole and Victoria bonded and got closer with Nicole back in the house. Nicole admitted her biggest mistake had been working with Christine, and they agreed they didn't like her. They both hoped Nicole would win the Veto and solve their problem.
Derrick tried to build a division between Caleb and Frankie by boosting Caleb's ego. He also discredited himself and said he did terribly in competitions. Derrick made it clear Caleb could beat him in the final two, whereas he didn't think he would be able to beat Frankie.
Christine went upstairs to talk to the rest of her alliance, even though she didn't want to. They assured her that if any of them won the Veto, they would take her down and put Victoria up.
The group gathered to pick players for the Veto Competition. Caleb picked Houseguest's Choice and selected Cody, Nicole pulled Derrick's chip, and Christine pulled Victoria's. Frankie was in disbelief that his chip didn't get pulled again and even checked inside the bag to find it.
The Veto Competition was bomb-themed. A video was shown at the start of each round, and the houseguests had to answer the question that followed by cutting the appropriate wire. Cody was out after the first round, which also meant he had to wear a dinosaur costume for the week. Caleb was out after the third round, Victoria was out after the fourth, and Nicole and Derrick both went out in the sixth round, meaning Christine won the Power of Veto.
After the competition, Caleb caught Frankie whispering into Christine's ear. When he got closer, Frankie stopped whispering. Caleb told Cody and Derrick, and all three were suspicious. Cody asked Christine about it, and she said Frankie was commenting he would have made it to the end with Christine.
Cody received his dinosaur outfit, which everyone thought was just the cutest. He went upstairs to tell Caleb what Christine said. The two of them agreed Frankie was undermining them, and they worried he would put them up if he won HoH.
Outside, Caleb talked to Derrick and Christine about the Frankie situation. Christine said she would rather sit next to any of the guys and lose than lose to Frankie. Inside, Derrick and Cody agreed they should send Frankie home.
As they laid in their beds, Nicole told Derrick he was playing the best game so far, and everything he did was strategic. She even compared him to Dan Gheesling, which freaked Derrick out. He decided to stick with the original plan of getting Nicole out and went upstairs to convince Caleb and Cody.
During the Veto Meeting, Christine used the Power of Veto on herself. Caleb said the person he was putting up as a replacement should know they were completely safe. He then nominated Victoria and said the main target for the week was Nicole.

Music Collections at Cardiff University
Cardiff University holds several collections of rare published and manuscript music of international significance, dating from the 17th-20th centuries. Find out more about the collections on our dedicated Music subject page.
Two major collections, Mackworth and Aylward, are on permanent loan from the Cardiff Public Library, and are to be catalogued with the help of funding from JISC. Follow our progress with the project on our blog.
Other notable collections include a large number of rare books from the BBC's music library, and the personal archives of several Welsh composers, including Morfydd Owen, Grace Williams and David Wynne.
Special Collections and Archives also holds an extensive collection of Welsh ballads.
See below for extracts from the 2012 exhibition 'Music Collections at Cardiff University'. Click on the images to enlarge.
Mackworth Collection
This collection was assembled by Sir Herbert Mackworth (1737-1791), with other volumes added later by various family members. It contains publications spanning from Thomas Mace's 'Music's Monument' of 1676 to a copy of Mendelssohn's 'Elijah' dated from around 1878; the vast majority of the published works, however, are from the 18th century.
There are some 70 manuscripts, including full scores of operas by Giovanni Bononcini, Porpora and Alessandro Scarlatti as well as numerous operatic arias by Hasse, Vinci, Handel and others. There is also a volume of 18 Spanish cantatas, and over 50 copies of Italian cantatas, including one unica by Alessandro Scarlatti. The printed music includes pleasure-garden songs, fashionable dance music and instrumental music by Corelli, Handel and Hasse.
Cantadas Españoles. Manuscript score. Eighteen Spanish cantatas for solo voice and accompaniment by Joseph de Torres, Federico, [Contreras], Duron, 'D.F.D.R.C', Pedro Rabazza, Anto[nio] Literes and Father Joachin Zanduey, c. 1710
This important manuscript contains several early 18th century Spanish cantatas.
A copy of the manuscript was recently ordered by the manager of the award-winning Al Ayre Español Baroque Orchestra. The ensemble is dedicated to musicological rigor in introducing historical compositions to contemporary audiences.
Al Ayre Español has performed on the most prestigious stages, including Vienna's Musikverien, Berlin's Konzerthaus, Paris' Theatre des Champs Elysées, Madrid's Theatro Real, Barcelona's Palau de la Musica Catalana, Rome's Teatro Olimpico, and Washington's Library of Congress.
Twenty four new London contra dances for the Year 1779. With proper tunes & directions to each dance as they are perform'd. London: Longman Lukey & Co., [1778]
'Contra dances' refers to partnered folk dance styles in which couples dance in two facing lines. At the end of the 17th century, English country dances were taken up by French dancers. The French changed the name country dance to contre danse (dance of opposition), to reflect the position of the dancers standing opposite each other.
As time progressed, English country dances were spread and reinterpreted throughout the Western world, and eventually the French form of the name came to be associated with the American folk dances, especially in New England.
This score contains dancing instructions using both text and symbols to indicate movement.
The bird fancyer's delight, or choice observations. London: Walsh & Hare, c. 1730
In the 18th century, musical manuals circulated showing songbird keepers how to teach their birds to learn a tune and sing it back – 100 years before the invention of the phonograph and the advent of recorded sound.
'The Bird Fancyer's Delight' was first published in 1717 in America, and was one such instruction manual for the teaching of singing to caged birds using the then popular flageolet.
John Lenton, The gentleman's diversion, or the violin explain'd. [Sold by the author], 1693
This unique first edition of John Lenton's treatise has escaped the attention of scholars and cataloguers due to the missing title page and first two pages of text. The volume begins at page 3, but the remaining pages are all complete, and a careful examination of them shows beyond doubt that this is a unique example of the first edition.
The discovery of the Cardiff copy of 'The Gentleman's Diversion' sets other violin methods of the period in a new light. It also confers upon John Lenton the honourable distinction of having written the earliest extant treatise on violin playing in any language.
Ladies' pocket guide, or the compleat tutor for the guittar, containing easy rules for learners. London: David Rutherford, [c. 1750]
During the 1750s an instrument commonly called the 'guittar' became immensely popular in Britain. This was not a guitar as we know it today but a close relative of the cittern.
This volume is a reflection of the social view in the 18th century that the guitar was an instrument used predominantly by women. In 1753, the actress Maria Macklin was the first person to play it on stage.
During the early years of the 19th century the instrument fell into obscurity and was then replaced by the new six-stringed Spanish guitar.
Mr Kirkland, A song in praise of old English brown beer, [1736]
Richard Leveridge (1670-1758) was a singer of the London stage and specialised in entr'acte [between the acts] songs, and songs within plays. He popularised many of the patriotic songs that he wrote, including 'The Roast Beef of Old England':
'When mighty roast beef was the Englishman's food,
It ennobled our hearts, and enriched our blood,
Our soldiers were brave, and our courtiers were good.
Oh, the roast beef of old England! And oh, for old England's roast beef!'
This volume features over 200 individual song sheets.
Charles Burney, Six sonatas or duets for two German flutes. London, J. Oswald, [1754])
George Frideric Handel, The overture and favourite songs in the opera of Rodelinda, (London c. 1725)
Johann Adolph Hasse, Sonata per il cembalo (London, J. Phillips, c. 1760)
These works are all thought to be unique copies.
Aylward Collection
Theodore Edward Aylward (1844-1933) studied with Dr. S. S. Wesley and worked as a cathedral organist at Llandaff and Chichester. His collection contains over 700 items but this number is misleading because many of the volumes actually consist of bound collections of individual publications within a common subject area, e.g. Songs.
It includes a quantity of material on sacred works, songs and singing, dramatic music, orchestral music, solos and studies and music for organ and harmonium. The collection is interesting as a social document as well as for its music material.
Édouard Lalo, Aubade. Paris: Boussod & Valadon, n.d.
An aubade is a morning love song (as opposed to a serenade, which is in the evening), or a song or poem about lovers separating at dawn. It has also been defined as 'a song or instrumental composition concerning, accompanying, or evoking daybreak'. In the strictest sense of the term, an aubade is a song from a door or window to a sleeping woman.
Aubades were commonly in the repertory of troubadours, of the kind illustrated here.
Caroline Lowthian, Mother Hubbard polka - dedicated to Miss Mary Cooper. London: Chappell & Co., 1734
An unusual example from a rare female composer.
Caroline Lowthian was a prolific composer of dance pieces in the Victorian era, including the Marguerite and Swallows Waltzes, Old Love and the New Waltz, The Vanity Fair Polka, the Black and Tan Polka, and this, the Mother Hubbard Polka.
George Frideric Handel, A collection of the most celebrated songs in the opera of Alexander, n.d.
Alessandro [Alexander the Great] is an opera written for the Royal Academy of Music, composed by George Frideric Handel in 1726. Handel cast together in the same opera the famous prima donna singers Faustina Bordoni, as Rossane, and Francesca Cuzzoni, as Lisaura. Handel made use of their real-life professional rivalry in his treatment of the story.
Handel completed the score on April 11, 1726, and the first performance took place at the King's Theatre, London just over three weeks later on May 5. Given the enormous public interest in the first joint appearance of Cuzzoni and Bordoni, Alessandro was predictably a great success.
This copy features a fold out score.
BBC Music Library
The BBC's collection of 18th and 19th century printed music, first compiled in the 1950s to serve the needs of producers preparing broadcast material for Radio 3, was acquired from the BBC Music Library (London) to complement material in the Mackworth and Aylward collections.
Giuseppe Verdi, Sechs romanzen mit pianoforte-begleitung. Leipzig: Kistner, n.d.
The 'Sei Romanze' [Six Romances] for voice and piano were printed in Milan when Verdi was just 25. They are chamber songs, liriche da camera, written for the extensive amateur market. In them we can detect Verdi testing his powers at setting dramatic verse. This copy is a rare and richly illustrated German edition.
Thomas A. Arne, Thomas and Sally. London: Harrison & Co., n.d.
'Thomas and Sally', (also known as 'The Sailor's Return') is a dramatic pastoral opera in two acts by the composer Thomas Arne with an English libretto by Isaac Bickerstaff. The opera was meant to be performed as an 'after piece': a short musical work to be performed after a spoken play.
It was the first English comic opera to be sung through without dialogue, and one of only a few dramatic works of Arne's to survive a disastrous fire in Covent Garden in 1808.
Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Snegourotchka suite. St Petersburg: Bessel, [c. 1899]
The tale of Snegourochka, or the Snow Maiden, was adapted into an opera by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, who made frequent use of fairy tale and folk subjects in his compositions. This copy is signed by the composer.
John Parry, Selection of Welsh melodies. London: Bland & Wellers, 1809
John Parry (1776-1851), commonly known by his bardic name 'Bardd Alaw', (professor of music and master of song) was a Welsh harpist and composer. Parry was born in Denbigh, the son of a stonemason. He taught himself to play the fife on an instrument that he made himself from a piece of cane.
Parry subsequently became the most famous player, teacher and proponent of the flageolet. Parry published this rare collection of Welsh melodies, for which the Cambrian Society presented him with a silver medal.
Richard Wagner, Die walküre. Mainz: B. Schott's Söhne, 1899
'Die Walküre' [The Valkyrie], is the second of the four operas that form the cycle 'Der Ring des Nibelungen' [The Ring of the Nibelung], by Richard Wagner. The best-known excerpt is the 'Ride of the Valkyries'. Wagner took his tale from the Norse mythology told in the Volsunga Saga and the Poetic Edda.
This unique copy has several notices of performances bound with the score.
Morfydd Owen archive
Morfydd Llwyn Owen (1891-1918) was a Welsh composer, pianist and mezzo-soprano. Although she lived a short life, dying aged just 26, Morfydd was a prolific composer, as well as a member of influential intellectual circles. She was born in Treforest, Pontypridd, the daughter of drapers.
She showed great musical talent at an early age and later won a scholarship to study at University College Cardiff. She then moved to London to study with Frederick Corder at the Royal Academy of Music on the Goring Thomas scholarship, which she held for four years. It was at the Academy that she also began to study voice. She was a very successful student and won two prizes (including the Charles Lucas medal for composition and the Oliveria Prescott prize for general excellence) within her first year.
She continued to accumulate awards during her stay at the Royal Academy where her works - songs, part-songs and piano pieces including a sonata, pieces for violin and piano, trio for violin, cello and piano - were performed.
In February 1917, much to the shock and disappointment of her family and friends, Morfydd married the psychoanalyst Ernest Jones. Jones was the leading exponent in Britain of Freud's ideas and an avowed atheist.
There is some evidence that Jones was unsupportive of Morfydd's musical career; in a letter of 20 February 1917 to Sigmund Freud, Jones indicated that the 1917 Aeolian Hall concert was to be her final public appearance. In the summer of 1918, whilst travelling in South Wales with Jones, she developed a sudden and acute case of appendicitis. She died after an emergency operation due to an overdose of chloroform.
Morfydd Owen was not only immensely talented but prolific. Having composed seriously for just over 10 years, she produced over 180 compositions.
Morfydd Owen, Minuet and Trip for Piano, 29 October 1908
'Minuet and Trip for Piano' was Morfydd Owen's first dated composition. It is written aged 17, in a school exercise book. The remaining pages comprise numbered school composition exercises.
Morfydd Owen, A nocturne. 16 parts for full orchestra, May-Jun 1913
Morfydd Owen's 'A Nocturne' for orchestra won the Charles Lucas Silver Medal in her first year at the Royal Academy of Music. It premiered at Queen's Hall on 12 Dec 1913, and was hailed 'one of the most individual students' works ever heard'.
Morfydd Owen, Sacred song / Gweddi y pechadur, June 1913
'Sacred Song', or 'Gweddi y Pechadur', was Morfydd Owen's best known composition, written during a long weekend at her parents' home in Treforest, 5-7 June 1913.
Morfydd Owen, Mae nghariad i'n Fenws, Cwyd dy galon, Yr hên wr mwyn and Ym Mhontypridd mae 'nghariad, n.d.
While she was in London, Morfydd formed two separate circles of friends. One was the Charing Cross Welsh Presbyterian Chapel, which was a central gathering point for many Welsh people living in London. She developed an especially close friendship with the wife of the then Liberal MP for Flintshire, Sir Herbert Lewis. Lady Ruth Lewis was an important figure in the Welsh Folk-Song Society of London and invited Morfydd to become involved with the organization.
She obliged and transcribed, as well as wrote accompaniments to, many pieces for collections of Welsh Folk Songs. She provided musical examples to illustrate Lewis's lectures on folksong and in 1914 they collaborated in publishing 'Folk-Songs Collected in Flintshire and the Vale of Clwyd'.
Morfydd Owen, Prayer for peace, n.d.
The other social circle Morfydd associated with was the London literary intelligensia; notable acquaintances were the poets D. H. Lawrence and Ezra Pound. She also was friends with several Russian émigrés.
It was through her Russian friendships, as well as influence of her work with Ruth Lewis, that she developed a fascination with Russian folk song.
In 1915 she asked for, and received, a fellowship from the University of Wales to study the folk music of Russia, Norway and Finland. However, the outbreak of the First World War made travel impossible.
Morfydd Owen, William, Richard, and Llwyn Owen, September 1915
Morfydd Owen, Sarah, September 1915
Morfydd claimed to be descended from William Williams, Pantycelyn on her father's side, and chose his texts to accompany four tunes named for her siblings: Richard, Sarah, William and Llwyn Owen.
Morfydd Owen, Two Madonna Songs (a) To our Lady of Sorrows, Wilfrid Hinton (b) Slumber Song to the Madonna, Alfred Noyes. Music by Morfydd Llwyn-Owen. Printed score by The Anglo-French Series, 1917
Morfydd Owen's first published songs appeared under her bardic name in the early months of 1917. They were promoted during the weekly All-British Concert at the Steinway Hall, London, 19 April 1917, by the soprano Margaret Demsey with Morfydd at the piano.
Morfydd Owen, 1918
Sepia print of Morfydd Owen's portrait, taken shortly before her death. With attached obituary by L. J. Roberts.
Morfydd Owen's marriage certificate, 6 Feb 1917
Morfydd Owen's and Ernest Jones' marriage certificate from Marylebone Register Office. It is of note that Morfydd leaves the 'Rank or Profession' box empty, despite being a highly regarded composer at this point in her life, possibly supporting the theory that Jones disapproved of her career.
She also shaves a couple of years off her age, stating it as 23, when she was in fact 25. Jones discovered the inaccuracy some 40 years later.
Miscellaneous lyrics and scores
Morfydd Owen was a prolific composer, and her archive is full of scribbled verses as they came to her, on scraps of paper, the back of exercise books, and even Christmas cards.
This single sheet of paper containing several sets of lyrics and scores, including Poor auld Maidens, Cold blows the wind, My love she is slender, I must live all alone, The sailing trade; The souling song; Little Sir William and The Derby ram.

Let's talk about the price of gas, shall we? I mean, why not? Everybody ELSE is.
It's going up.
There are many reasons for this.
Circumstances in the Middle East, Iran embargoing oil to Europe and England have oil speculators…speculating and whenever they do THAT…The price of a barrel goes UP. The prospect of war between Israel and Iran is also fueling higher oil prices.
The price ALWAYS goes up in the summer month because of the differing blends mandated by the EPA. Those blends can also vary from state to state but in FEBRUARY??? Gas prices have NEVER been this high in FEBRUARY which means, by the time it's time for the summer blends, the price will go even HIGHER.
Of course, as the price of gas climbs, so too will the prices of everything else.
Socks? Price is gonna go up. Food? Up, up, up. Auto parts? Yep…Up. You name it and the price is going to rise because of gas prices. Everything you buy has to get from where it's made to where you buy it and if the cost of transporting your Chinese manufactured socks is going up, so is the price of the socks.
There is a great deal of focus, right now, on the nixed Keystone XL Pipeline.
Liberal/socialists are tripping all over themselves pointing out how allowing the pipeline would NOT bring down the cost of gas TODAY.
Maybe not but you can't discount those oil speculators either. If they were to see a pipeline being okayed or holes being drilled into American soil or American waters, they would be dropping the price of a barrel of oil.

If you're a newcomer to New Zealand, you might be stuck in
the illusion that hobbits dwell here and our country is
over-ruled by sheep.
While the latter may be true and the former possible, there's
much more to New Zealand than that, and if you want to fit
in, there's a few things you need to know about New Zealand
So, let's say you are heading out to a low-key rugby match
with some of your new Kiwi mates.
You'll need to know how to dress, what to talk about and what
food and drink you should consume to become a Kiwi.
Firstly, chuck on a pair of jandals no matter the weather.
Yes, even if it's snowing, you should be wearing your very
own pair of jandals (or flip-flops, as some might say).
Although, if you really don't want to wear your jandals,
either because you're a bit of a wimp when it comes to cold
weather or because of the fact that you have none, a pair of
gumboots is also acceptable.
Along with your jandals or gumboots, you should ideally be
wearing a pair of shorts, preferably a bit dirty, and a good
old t-shirt and you'll be all set.
At the match during half-time, you'll need something to
prattle on about with your mates.
Consider partaking in one of New Zealand's adventure
activities beforehand, so you have something to brag about
and don't have to endure awkward small talk.
Queenstown is supposedly the adventure capital of the world.
Note: don't attempt to argue with anyone about this fact.
So take a wee trip there and do a bungy jump or skydive. Your
mates will surely think you're well on your way to becoming a
true Kiwi.
Beverages come in handy at a match where you'll probably be
sitting under the blazing sun and screaming until your throat
is hoarse, so bring along a chilly bin.
Make sure it's stocked with heaps of cans of L&P so you
can offer some around and make some new mates.
Food is another important aspect of New Zealand life.
Even if you won't have the opportunity to bring food along to
the match, you will need to know a thing or two in case
anyone brings up the vast subject.
For example, if someone asks you around for a `barbie', and
you're sitting there thinking ''Barbie? As in the doll?'',
you might just lose a few popularity points.
Barbie is short for barbecue, or BBQ, and if you're going
over to a mate's for one of these, you can expect to be
served a variety of different meats and maybe a tiny serving
of greens.
You should also be prepared in case you get a few visitors to
your house after the match.
If you serve your mates caviar and $100 wine, they might not
be too keen on visiting you again.
However, if you order some fish and chips from the local
store, they'll surely be back again soon.
In conclusion, becoming a true Kiwi isn't too hard.
Make sure you remember to wear the appropriate clothes, talk
about interesting subjects and indulge in the correct food
and drink.
If you follow these easy steps you'll be sure to gain some
new mates in no time!

Thievery Corporation's video for "Depth of My Soul" is a breathtaking work of art with its expansive views, serene energy, calming colors, and soft light.
Thievery Corporation 'Saudade' Transcends and Transports
Words by Amelia Viner
It's dusk. The sun sits on the skyline and its glow radiates on the water. You watch the sun sink into the horizon from your chair as you tap your strappy tan heels on the restaurant's cobble stone. The bartender hands you a Caipirinha and you sip it slowly, drumming your fingertips on the glass, still looking at the sunset.
You stand up and close your eyes, start to sway–maybe because you're tipsy, but mostly because "Décollage" by Thievery Corporation has just come on. It streams into the outdoor space like a soft rain and you can't help but drift with it. You let the gentle French phrases by Lou Lou Ghelichkani, the humidity, and the sweet drink carry you into a calming trance as you glide past the gleaming bodies to the dance floor.
Saudade, Thievery Corporation's seventh studio album, has the power to transport you here– to a Brazilian city you may have never been to, yet may feel more comforting than anywhere you've ever been or dreamt of. Saudade's strings and Latin claves blend with the gentle hum of the restaurant; the clinking of wine glasses and plates combine to create a spontaneous live accompaniment. And that drink in your hand, the Caipirinha, is one of Brazil's cultural symbols. It is constantly being reinvented with varying ingredients. Just as the sum of its parts can morph into something new yet preserve its authenticity, so too can Thievery Corporation's blended sound revisit its first love in Saudade: bossa nova.
New Release: Thievery Corporation – 'Saudade'
Thievery Corporation's seventh studio album, Saudade, dropped today! Going back to the roots that originally brought them together, the duo dedicates this work entirely to bossa nova. Saudade in Portuguese means "a longing for something or someone that is lost, a contented melancholy, or, simply, the presence of absence."
The album draws from classic Brazilian artists such as Antonio Carlos Jobim, Gal Costa, and Luis Bonfá, among others.
Listen to the lush and sensual "Depth of My Soul" after the jump.

Rest In Peace, Chico Hamilton
Legendary jazz musician and leader of the Euphoria ensemble Chico Hamilton has passed away.
Coming up as a rising jazz drummer alongside other heavyweights such as Charles Mingus in high school, Chico played with Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, Billie Holiday, Gerry Mulligan and others, cementing himself as a force to be reckoned with early on.
In 1987, he helped found the New School University Jazz & Contemporary Music Program in NYC, a place dear to many of our hearts.
His ensembles helped develop talent like Gabor Szabo and Larry Coryell, amongst many others. Chico is also credited as an influence for many contemporary talents such as Carlos Santana, Joe Claussell, Jose James, Mark de Clive-Lowe and Thievery Corporation.
Honored as a "Living Jazz Legend" by the Kennedy Center and as an NEA Jazz Master, Chico Hamilton was seminal to the jazz community, culture, and history. Material from his October 2013 recordings with his Euphoria ensemble will be released as the The Inquiring Mind in early 2014.
We are grateful to have had Chico as part of our own history here at Giant Step as well – he will be sorely missed.
The ongoing event series, Celebrating the Life & Music of Foreststorn 'Chico' Hamilton will continue on December 15 at Drom in NYC. Come out and pay homage to one of the greats.
