Fragmentary Thoughts Rescued from a Weekend of Culture
Despite having spent an awful lot of time in theatres, I'm not a big fan of musicals, but Sondheim's work is an exception, and the performance at Symphony Hall was magnificent, because the songs were performed by Broadway veterans Marin Mazzie, Greg Edelman, and Faith Prince as well as five younger performers from the Tanglewood Music Center (two were excellent, one was good, two were pretty awful). The choice of material was particularly strong -- I've got a bunch of CDs of Sondheim retrospectives, most of which have one or two good performances, but are, as a whole, forgettable because they try to cover Sondheim's entire career and end up being stretched too thin to be coherent. The selection of songs here was brilliant: a few from Act I of Sweeney Todd, including both "The Worst Pies in London" and "A Little Priest" (I think the friends I was sitting with were a bit horrified by my maniacal glee during the latter -- but really, how can you not be delighted by lines such as "And we have some shepherd's pie peppered/ With actual shepherd on top!"), then a handful from Sunday in the Park with George, then a couple from Merrily We Roll Along, including the horrendously difficult "Opening Doors" to end the first half of the performance. The pieces from Merrily were particular fun for me, because I directed the show a few years ago, and some of the people who were in it were with us at Pops. The second half commenced with solos by Faith Prince ("The Ladies Who Lunch" from Company), Greg Edelman ("If You Can Find Me, I'm Here" from Evening Primrose), and Marin Mazzie ("Losing My Mind" from Follies). All were excellent, but Mazzie's was simply perfect, both musically and emotionally. Then came five songs from Into the Woods and the finale, part 2 of "Old Friends" from Merrily We Roll Along, an odd choice that they pulled off well.
Anyway, a phenomenal evening, and one I hope will makes its way to PBS's "Evening at Pops" series and perhaps even an album, because it deserves to be preserved. (Ed Siegel's review for the Globe seems mostly accurate to me.)
Then came Sunday, when I met up with Geoffrey Goodwin (who you might know from Bookslut) at Pandemonium Books in Harvard Square and we wandered off to Kendall Square to go see Howl's Moving Castle. This ended up being a bigger endeavor than we counted on, though, because neither of us knew how to get to the Kendall Square Cinema, and directions we got made it seem much farther away from the subway than it really is, so we ended up walking through Cambridge for a couple of hours on a quest for the theatre. By the time we found it, we were exhausted and famished, so we bought tickets to the 5pm show and then went off in search of food. You would not think this would be difficult in a city, but while Harvard Square had been bustling, Kendall Square was eerily empty of people and every restaurant we found was closed except for a pub that was too enamored with meat for two vegetarians to be able to get any food at. Finally, desperately, we ended up at an Au Bon Pain. So here's some advice: If you go to Kendall Square on a Sunday, bring your own food. And if anybody tells you the Kendall Square Cinema is really far away, don't believe them.
But we finally saw the film, and it was magnificent. It's not perfect -- the ending ties things up too hastily -- but it's richly detailed, mysterious, evocative, haunting, funny, touching, and endlessly inventive. Only about 15 minutes of the movie draw very closely from the original novel, which may disappoint some Diana Wynne Jones fans, but I loved what Miyazaki did with the material, and it actually made me appreciate some of the original elements of the book more, though I still remain essentially impervious to what I'm told are the novel's charms (well, I liked the first quarter or so of the book, but not so much after that). I expect to have something more here about Howl's Moving Castle in the next week or two, but for now I'll just say that while it's not Miyazaki's best movie, it's unlikely you'll find a better film in theatres this summer, so even if it takes time and sacrifices to go see it, you should.

I think the friends I was sitting with were a bit horrified by my maniacal glee during the latter --ReplyDelete
I love Sweeney Todd. "A Little Priest" was quite probably been the first song from that musical that I learned. It has such a cheerful tune, and then the lyrics hit you . . . But fortunately it's also clear / That everybody goes down well with beer!
In re Castle: I wanted more of the political thread and less of the fairy-tale love story thread.ReplyDelete
The fairy-tale love story thread was never quite as interesting as the similar thread in Spirited Away. The political thread promised, for a little while, to really delve into the pacifist themes Miyazaki only hinted at in Laputa and Porco Rosso, but seemed to lose steam at the end.
(I note from a quick skim of a Russian pirate e-text that the war plot appears to be a wholly Ghibli contribution — true?)
Yes, the war was new. I would have probably thought it was Miyazaki's best film if the war had been more meaningfully integrated into the story and given the intensity that the battles in Princess Mononoke. I didn't mind too much, because it's not my story to tell, but certainly that would have been my preference, too. It was interesting to see some of the posters on walls, though -- a few in German, plus some anti-war ones in English.ReplyDelete
It was. I always enjoy Miyazaki's fantastic geographies.ReplyDelete
Sonya -- I was looking for an article from The Nation about Sondheim that mentioned the wonderful thing about "A Little Priest" being its class awareness, but I can't find it online. I don't think it's quite as revolutionary a statement as the Nation writer did, particularly given that it's a serial killer justifying himself, but it is at least amusing that within that song is the chorus about "those above will serve those down below".ReplyDelete
The politics of Assassins also seems to me reactionary, though on the surface it appears to be a "dangerous" story of people killing presidents -- really, it's about how anybody who yearns for a better, more just way of life is a dangerous, deluded lunatic. But I still like the songs.
One of my friend Andy's pet never-to-be-realized projects is a hypothetical film called Bad Men: a series of vignettes each starring Gary Oldman as a different presidential assassin.ReplyDelete
Which would, y'know, tend to fit in with the "dangerous, deluded lunatic" theme, at least if he hams it up the way he does most of his B-movie roles...
Gary Oldman as all the assassins would be quite interesting, indeed. Their stories are fascinating and haven't been mined nearly as much as they deserve (except for the biggiest like Lincoln and Kennedy).ReplyDelete

Have you seen/heard Sondheim's Assassions?ReplyDelete
Rick Bowes
Yes, indeed, I've seen Assassins three times, and know the original soundtrack pretty much backwards and forwards. (Haven't heard the new soundtrack.) I have some trouble with what seems to me the underlying theme, as I said above, but I love the music and find a lot of scenes very amusing. And I could be wrong about it communicating an idea that only freaks desire a better world, since I haven't given it a tremendous amount of thought, and what may bother me most is the portrayal of Emma Goldman, which is very two-dimensional. But then, I'd like to write a musical someday about Alexander Berkman's attempt to kill Henry Clay Frick, and end it with a song called, "Damn Your Hand, Berkman! If Only You'd Been a Better Shot!" so I'm not sure anything I say is worth paying attention to....ReplyDelete

State police are investigating to determine whether to file charges in a Saturday night fatal stabbing in Hamilton Township.
Thomas Howard Jr., 35, was stabbed during an altercation with his father, Thomas James Howard, 62, in their Tulip Lane home in Saylorsburg, police said. Howard Jr. was taken to Pocono Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 3:31 a.m. Sunday after emergency surgery failed.
Monroe County Coroner Bob Allen said an autopsy performed Monday at Lehigh Valley Hospital revealed the cause of Howard Jr.'s death as a stab wound to the abdomen and the manner of his death as homicide. Police charged Howard with aggravated assault Saturday night, but withdrew that charge Monday and said the investigation continues.
A police affidavit gives the following account:
At about 9:08 p.m. Saturday, a man later identified as Howard called 911 and yelled that he had stabbed his son, police said, though what led to the stabbing hasn't been revealed. The dispatcher kept Howard on the line until police arrived at his home.
Howard did not resist when police took him into custody.
Police said they found the injured Howard Jr. curled up in the fetal position on the porch and believe he was stabbed in the stomach with a bladed object, but didn't mention finding a weapon.
Police took Howard to the Swiftwater barracks and gave him his Miranda warnings. He invoked his rights and gave no statement.
Police said they saw small red drops believed to be blood on Howard's clothes and hands, and noted he didn't cry or seem upset at any time.
Stroud Township Magisterial District Judge C. Daniel Higgins Jr., who was on duty at the time, later arraigned Howard on a first-degree felony charge of aggravated assault and ordered him placed in Monroe County Correctional Facility in lieu of $100,000 bail. Police sent a press release Monday afternoon saying the charge had been withdrawn by the Monroe County District Attorney's Office and that the investigation continues.
Howard has been cleared for release from Monroe County Correctional Facility, according to First Assistant District Attorney Mike Mancuso.
The fatal stabbing comes almost three months after the November death of Debra Howard, the wife of Howard and mother of Howard Jr., at her daughter's Nazareth home.

EU's Kroes to Deliver Mobile Action Plan for Europe
By Frances Robinson and Sam Schechner
Europe's digital chief Tuesday said she will deliver an action plan next month to drag Europe's ailing telecommunications sector into the modern age.
The European Union's commissioner for the digital agenda, Neelie Kroes, said Europe is "shooting itself in the foot" by not offering proper fourth-generation mobile coverage to its businesses and consumers.
The bloc's executive arm will issue a new plan to overhaul the mobile sector next month, Ms. Kroes told reporters after meeting the chief executives of the region's biggest telecom operators at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Ms. Kroes asked: "How can it be that there are more 4G subscriptions in South Korea than the entire EU? How can 17 EU countries still lack 4G?"
Europe's telecom infrastructure is lagging badly behind the U.S. and Asia with the region's telecom chiefs largely blaming heavy regulation from Brussels for the delay.
The CEOs say consolidation of the telecom market and a lighter regulatory touch are required to give European operators more scale and better profits, allowing them to invest in upgrading their networks.
Ms. Kroes met the CEOs Tuesday afternoon in Barcelona to discuss the matter. Speaking afterward, she told The Wall Street Journal there was a genuine change in their mood, with enthusiasm for the pan-European market growing.
Ms. Kroes said her Wireless Action Plan will in particular boost mobile operators' access to radio frequencies, known as spectrum, enabling them to offer faster mobile download speeds. She also announced €50 million ($66 million) of research funding to deliver next generation "5G" mobile technology by 2020.
Still, she added, there is a €27 billion investment gap and allocation for the spectrum frequencies to be used for 4G look like "a bowl of spaghetti."
The action plan will also see the European Commission start using the full extent of its legal powers under the bloc's treaty to create a single market, she said, with legal proceedings against national governments which don't do enough on spectrum.
But the operators say national consolidation should come first.
Late last year, the EU commission's antitrust unit approved Hutchison Whampoa Ltd.'s $1.7 billion takeover of Orange Austria — but only after it offered major concessions to European Union regulators.
ETNO, the trade body representing Europe's biggest telecom companies, says more in-country deals are an essential first step, and Brussels should soften its stance on mergers and acquisitions in the sector.
"Fostering a single market for telecoms in Europe would require, among others, that the Commission allows in-market consolidation as a first step to rationalise the fragmented mobile and fixed landscape in Europe," Luigi Gambardella, head of ETNO said. "Ultimately, a more consolidated European telecoms market would reinforce Europe's competitiveness on the world telecoms markets."
Speaking at the Mobile World Congress Tuesday, Deutsche Telekom Chief Executive Rene Obermann echoed this, saying Europe must reduce regulation.
"Change the regime," he told the conference. "What I think is dumb is further and unnecessary regulatory intervention in this market."
Changing this isn't just a matter of regulation, says Leonidas Kanellos, the chairman of BEREC, the grouping of Europe's 27 regulators.
"Investment does not only occur on the basis of regulatory environment, but on the basis of other criteria such as scale, payback period, rate of return… So my conclusion is we should make the environment more attractive," he said.
Early conversations between companies and policymakers about creating a pan-European regulator have started in the last couple of weeks. Ms. Kroes said this could be "very interesting," and noted that the single market is "the jewel in the EU's crown."
"This is just bubbling up," said Pierre Louette, a deputy chief executive of France Telecom — adding that France Telecom, which is minority-owned by the French state, didn't yet have a position on whether it would be in favor of a single regulator. Past suggestions have always been rejected, but with a single regulator planned for the banking sector, the suggestion looks more feasible.

Masters Projects, 1969-2002
These records were donated to the Washington State University Libraries by Tami Vik of the Washington State University Murrow College of Communications on July 1st, 2010 (UA2010-06). Processing of this collection was completed by University Archivist Mark O'English in November of 2010, with University of Idaho graduate student Timothy Mace.
Washington State University's Department of Communications was formed in 1964 by the merging of the Journalism Department and the broadcasting courses offered by the Speech Department. In 1990 it became the Murrow School of Communications, and in 2008 it was renamed as the Edward R. Murrow College of Communications.
The collection consists of individual Masters Projects conducted by students in WSU's Communications program. The projects in this collection had been compiled and stored by the graduate program in Communications, and are far from a comprehensive set. Masters theses are not here; those can be found within the WSU Libraries' book collections.
The collection is organized in one series, alphabetically by authors.
This collection is open and available for research use. Copyright restrictions may apply.

Lena Sansosti Yost peacefully passed away at the age of 84 on July 18. She was surrounded by her husband and daughters after her courageous battle with cancer. She is deeply missed and lovingly remembered by her husband, George (Grand Junction); two daughters, Roxie (Rich) Deane of Eagle, and Raenette (Bill) Johnson of Eagle; four grandchildren, Cindy (John) Ramunno of Eagle, Debby (Ron) Beard of Eagle, Cassie Johnson of Denver, and Andy Johnson of Dillon; and four great-grandchildren, Hayley Beard, Rick Ramunno, Mike Ramunno and Jaycey Beard, all of Eagle. She is also survived by her two devoted and loved sisters, Betty Bull of Cedar City, UT, and Gloria (Johnnie) Toniolli of Colorado Springs, along with two nieces and three nephews.
Born in Salida Aug. 31, 1927, to Frank and Frances Sansosti, Angela Marie was lovingly referred to as "Little Lena" by everyone around her. The name stuck, and she legally changed her name to Lena as an adult. The oldest of three girls, Lena spent her early years in Wolcott, where she would fearlessly hunt and fish with her dad. She also became an accomplished accordionist as her father consistently took her to Denver for lessons, learning from the famed Earnest Bonvicini.
Lena met the love of her life while working as a teller at 1st National Bank in Glenwood Springs. George Yost walked in and stole her heart. The two married on Dec. 4, 1946, and shared a lifetime love that very few get to experience. Moving around for George's job, and through activities that included tennis and bowling, Lena always generously welcomed new friends into her life while remaining close with her old friends. Though hard workers, she and George led entertaining social lives, having fun no matter where they were, or who they were with. They enjoyed having so many wonderful friends.
Those who knew Lena say she was the epitome of a 'glass is half-full' person, always having a positive outlook and providing inspiring encouragement for others suffering from cancer. She had a sense of humor and lived her life with joy and a twinkle in her eye. It was always evident that she adored her husband as well as her entire family, and she set a wonderful example of a great daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and woman. She was an eternal optimist and her smile could light up any room. She lived her life with enormous beauty, integrity and grace. She created a harmonious environment, no matter the situation. She was kind, sweet, and lived life with a full, generous heart, but wasn't above a little bit of mischief. Her unwavering beliefs led her to pray daily and faithfully for all, and she rarely missed a Sunday mass at St. Mary's in Eagle.
The funeral mass was at St. Mary's Church in Eagle July 21. In lieu of flowers donations can be made in Lena's memory to the Alpine Home Health and Hospice, 1316 Grand Ave., Glenwood Springs, CO 81601.

10: That's the percentage of children in the United States who lived with a grandparent in 2010, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Of those, 3.2 million were living with both a grandmother and a grandfather. An additional 5.4 million children younger than 18 lived with a grandparent householder.
Better bones: In addition to taking calcium supplements to strengthen your bones, you also could be drinking alcohol. Yes, alcohol. A study by researchers at Oregon State University found that drinking modest amounts of alcohol improves a women's bone density. Moderate drinking means you would drink between one half to two drinks daily or close to daily.
40.3 million: That's the number of people 65 and older in the United States, says the U.S. Census Bureau.
This number accounts for 13 percent of the total population. In 2010, this age group was larger than in any other decennial census. It's up from 31.2 million in 1990 and 35 million in 2000.
Relationship status: Nearly three-quarters of women 60 and older reported being married or in a relationship, according to a recent poll of 1,200 by More magazine. Sixty-six percent of the women in the relationships gave themselves an A or a B on the success of their relationship.
Going back in time: About half of the women who never had children were childless by choice, according to a poll of women 60 and older by More magazine. And three-quarters of the women who were childless by choice said that if they could go back in time, they'd still decide to forgo having children. Translation: Go with your gut -- it's probably right.

Your effortless, reliable information organizer for Mac OS X
Yojimbo makes keeping all the small (or even large) bits of information that pour in every day organized and accessible. Itâs so simple, there is no learning curve. Yojimboâs mechanism for collecting, storing and finding information is so natural and effortless, it will change your life, without changing the way you work.
Required OS: 10.5
Tags: organization , productivity , notes
30 Opinions
I've gotten a lot of use out of Yojimbo. The Sync via MobileMe is great and the ability to password protect entries is a feature that seems to be missing from other products like Evernote (which I also use for different purposes). I'll agree though, 2.0 features are a bit dry for a $20 update. I'll probably stick with v1.
Version 2.0 features added that should have been in version 1.5 in the first place, after such a long time and now they have the gall to ask 20 bucks for that.
NO WAY. I'm on Evernote and happy.
Had to move to Evernote due to the frustrating lack of communication from Bare Bones about the future of Yojimbo. Safe to say they have completely missed the boat in terms of developing an iPhone app or a way to sync your info for mobile/cloud use. Shame really, because I did love the app and was a paying customer.
They had a great idea, but made it so simple that ruined the project completely. At first is great to use it, but as the database grows, you'll see that the lack of organization
nested folders, smart collections, etc will affect the retrieval of info.
Looks primitive and hasn't been seriously updated since its creation. I was expecting more of you, BareBones people.
I really like Yojimbo. I don't mind the lack of nested folders. I do wish it could accept more file types; my serial for Squirrel (a neat, lightweight fincancial tracker) came as a small file rather than a code and Yojimbo will not accept it.
I used it a lot, but the lack of nested folders is a big omission. It's in dire need for an update!
I have demoted Yojimbo, mainly due to its lack of hierarchical structure. Stuff can go into one of a half dozen or so huge buckets, but that's it. It turned into a black hole: Stuff went in and I forgot all about it. I now use it for the strictly defined tasks of keeping passwords and web receipts. For everything else, I ended up turning to DevonThink.
I think it's odd that you can't encrypt serial numbers. Everything else, but not serial number smart items?
I really enjoy Yojimbo. I have used it almost daily since I got it over a year ago. But I have been disappointed by its lack of export features. There is an awesome AppleScript here to export your Yojimbo database to a TiddlyWiki.
I use it for web clippings. I like how easy it is to just drag a web page onto a folder in the drop dock. My wish list feature would be the ability to tag on the fly when you drag something over.

Player's Perspective: Colgate University's Autism Awareness Project
The two posts below were written by Caroline and Taylor, members of Colgate University's Women's Hockey Team. The team's Autism Awareness Project will be on Friday, February 3 at 7pm. For more information or to make a donation, visit www.colgate.edu/autism.
As our Autism Awareness game has been fast approaching, we have grown more and more excited by the second. As a sophomore, I have witnessed the first year of our autism project, and have even higher expectations for this year. Every time I see a friend, classmate, or another athlete, I ask them if they will be attending the game. Every response is alongthe lines of, "Of course! Our whole team is coming." It is such an amazing feeling to hear such words, because we know that the whole community is behind us with this project. Ever since my freshman year at Choate Rosemary Hall, I have been involved with autism. During the month of January and February, my Choate hockey team would skate with mentally handicapped kids every Sunday, including kids with the brain disorder, autism. I became incredibly close with a boy named David. He had a huge heart and he would always tell me stories about his teams, his family, and how we were going to win the championship hockey game. When I graduated Choate, I was sad to leave such an eye-opening project, but I was quickly uplifted when my coach, Scott Wiley, announced our autism project for 2011. Coach Wiley designed this project in honor of Kati Williams, a local teenager from Norwich, who has been an avid fan of Colgate Women's hockey for several years and now works as the team manager. She and her family have had a huge impact on our team. Last year's project allowed us to cross paths with Christian Mast, an 11 year old boy who has autism, but also the biggest heart I know. He and his family have grown a part of our team, and we wouldn't be where we are today without them. -Caroline Potolicchio, Sophomore, #2
Before even coming to Colgate, I had already heard wonderful reports about the success of the Autism Awareness game last year. With the game fast approaching it has been fun to be apart of all of the excitement and commotion I am excited to see all of our hard work pay off this coming Friday. I am so thankful to be a part of such a great team that truly cares for a bigger cause. Just this past weekend when we were on a road trip, a St. Lawrence parent approached me, because she wanted us to know her gratitude to what we were doing for autism. She explained that the biggest problem with this disorder is that a lot of people are not educated that it even exists or that they could potential be diagnosed with it. She stated how our game and the publicity that it receives could be responsible for changing someone's life. I can contest to this first hand, because our biggest fan is eleven-year-old Autistic boy. Just the way that Christian lights up when he comes to a game to see us, makes all of our efforts and time worth while. I am very excited to see the jerseys that Christian designed for our game, and I am thankful that I have been able to be a part of spreading autism awareness. –Taylor Craig, Freshman, #5

Colgate University's Autism Awareness Project
This blog post was written by Erin Mast, the Chair for the Central New York Walk Now for Autism Speaks. She is an active member of the autism community and a mother of three boys. Erin and her family have cultivated a wonderful relationship with Colgate University's Women's Hockey team. For details about Colgate's Autism Awarenss Project or to make a donation, visit www.colgate.edu/autism.
If you are reading this blog, then most likely you have some connection to autism. I have two wonderful boys, who happen to be on the spectrum. I also chair the Central New York Walk Now for Autism Speaks. Through my volunteer efforts, I was lucky enough to be involved with the first ever Autism Awareness Event at Colgate University, hosted by the women's ice hockey team in 2011. On February 3 and the 4, the team is hosting their second event. They are planning amazing things and making such a huge difference to the members of their community. But, more importantly than that, they are changing the lives of people with autism. They are blessed with a wonderful manager, Kati, who is a huge part of the team. Kati has autism. But, it has gone further than that. My son Christian went along with me last year and it has honestly changed his life. He is now playing ice hockey with the Rochester Ice Cats, who are a member of the American Special Hockey Association. Christian was also asked to design the jerseys for the Colgate games throughout the weekend, which he did happily. The jerseys will be worn for two games and then auctioned off, the proceeds being donated to Autism Speaks and other local autism charities
If you would have asked me if an ice hockey program could have changed my life, I would have said, "Absolutely not." How wrong I would have been. Please take a moment to check out all that the ladies at Colgate University are doing to make a difference in the autism community by going to http://colgate.edu/autism. Support the team and all their efforts! Better yet, join us at Starr Rink on Friday, February 3 at 7:00 pm. Their goal is to break last year's record by having 1200 fans. Wear blue and get in for free!

Police are investigating a possible attempted child enticement in Delhi Township.
Dispatchers said someone in a white SUV pulled alongside some children shortly before 7 p.m. Saturday in the 1100 block of Anderson Ferry Road and invited the girls to get into the vehicle.
The girls instead ran to get their grandmother, dispatchers said.
Dispatchers said the passenger was wearing a black hat and black headband, but no further description was provided.

PITTSBURG -- Olympic bronze medalist John Carlos, who raised a fist in a controversial human rights salute meant to evoke political protest at an awards ceremony during the 1968 Summer Olympics, will be the keynote speaker at a Martin Luther King Jr. holiday event in Pittsburg.
The fact that Pittsburg has its own Olympic gold medalist -- Eddie Hart, who was on the track team that won the 4x100 relay race at the 1972 Summer Olympics -- helped persuade Carlos into accepting the invitation to give a speech to honor King's memory.
"I've known John for 40 years -- since the late '60s," Hart said.
Over the years, Carlos has come out to Pittsburg three or four times to participate in Hart's annual Olympian track-and-field clinic for youth. Carlos, who won the bronze medal in the 200-meter race, is a founding member of the Olympic Project for Human Rights. His fist raising in 1968, echoed by fellow Olympian medalist Tommie Smith, led to the two being banned from the U.S. Olympic team, and would change their lives forever.
Carlos will give his keynote speech on Monday at a free noontime MLK event at the Creative Arts Building at Pittsburg High School. Before that, a rally will be held at Pittsburg Civic Center at 11 a.m., followed by an 11:30 a.m. march to the Creative Arts Building.
"(Carlos) took a stand for justice," said Greg Osorio, one of organizers of the community-driven MLK event in Pittsburg now in its 10th year. "You're not going to have people who made history around forever. This is a great opportunity to hear someone like that. That photo (of Carlos' fist raising) is known throughout the world."
The event will also include appearances by winners of a spoken word event for high school students, Pittsburg Community Gospel Group and Pittsburg High's Black Student Union Steppers, a percussion-based dance troupe, among others.
At the event, the Pittsburg branch of the Contra Costa County library plans to make available for on-the-spot checkout of 30 copies of "The John Carlos Story: The Sports Moment That Changed the World" it has purchased. Released in November, the book was co-authored by Carlos.
Carlos helped bring civil rights issues to the forefront, said Chris Brown, manager of the Pittsburg branch.
"He's an international figure. To have someone like him come to Pittsburg is really exciting," he said. "I just want to make sure the library supports this community effort."
As a way of extending the event beyond the MLK holiday, Hart will lead a discussion of the book at the E.J. Phair taproom in Pittsburg at 2 p.m. Feb. 23, Brown said.

The New York State Children's Camp Safety Group, founded 21 years ago to help children's camps improve their safety and reduce workers' compensation insurance costs, has declared a 50 percent dividend on paid-in premiums for its members.
In addition to this dividend, the Safety Group announced the immediate discount for eligible members continues at 25 percent.
"With this year's dividend, members have received more than $13 million since the Safety Group was founded in 1991," said Henry Skier, Safety Group co-founder and group manager. "These savings result from the good safety practices and claims results of our Safety Group members."
More than $1 million will be mailed to the Safety Group's 140 members, with each receiving an average dividend of $8,500 or about half of their annual premium in 2012.
The Safety Group is administered by AMSkier Insurance (www.amskier.com) for the New York State Insurance Fund and endorsed by all of New York's leading camp organizations.
Dividends have been declared and paid in every year since the group was founded, with an average dividend yield of more than 45 percent.

Oilfield jobs to remain in high demand
Published: Tuesday, October 22, 2013 at 9:13 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 22, 2013 at 9:13 a.m.
Oilfield boat crews, welders and health care workers will be the careers in highest demand through 2020 in Houma-Thibodaux, a new report says.
It's among data in "Louisiana Workforce Information Review 2013," released Monday by the Louisiana Workforce Commission. The report provides a snapshot of how Louisiana and its parishes and metro areas have fared economically over the past several years and where they are likely headed.
In the region that includes Terrebonne, Lafourche and Assumption parishes, the highest demand jobs over the next seven years are boat captains, mates and pilots, the report says. It projects 260 openings for such positions each year and estimates average annual wages for such jobs at $77,282. Many of those jobs will require two- or four-year college degrees, advanced training or both.
While oilfield jobs will continue to be in highest demand locally, jobs in health care run a close second. Statewide, health care will see the biggest need for new workers of any career field through 2020, the report says.
"An estimated 57,646 jobs in this industry are expected to be created through 2020," the report says.
More specifically, the biggest growth, more than 24,000 jobs statewide, will be for workers who help patients at home or on an outpatient basis. It is followed by hospitals, 16,698 jobs, social assistance, 9,555 jobs, and nursing homes and residential care centers, 7,042 jobs.
Significant job growth is also expected in the food services and hotel industry, construction and in scientific and technical services.
"These projections reflect the growing needs for training and continuing workforce development efforts that focus on new, high-skill jobs," the report says.
Here's a look at some of the jobs projected to be in highest demand locally through 2020, including the annual number of workers needed and the estimated yearly salary. They are categorized by the training level required to obtain such a job.
2- or 4-year college degree
-- Registered nurses, 50 jobs a year, estimated $57,620 yearly salary.
-- Ship engineers, 50, $76,596.
-- Business operations managers, 40, $106,722.
Moderate training
These jobs usually require a high-school diploma or GED, on-the-job training or both.
-- Welders, 150, $39,869.
-- General maintenance and repair workers, 80, $33,021.
-- Oilfield service unit operators, 60, $47,775.
Vo-tech and long-term training
-- Licensed practical nurses, 40, $38,720.
-- Machinists, 40, $43,898.
-- Crane and tower operators, 30, $45,947.
The job projections are based on surveys of employers as well as studies and other data that offer insight into demand for various goods, services and workers through 2020.

USA, 2012, 60 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Documentary, GLBTLanguage: English
Plays in the Best of Cinema Q Film Festival - Repeats Tuesday, July 23 at 9:20pm
Digital presentation - The 1980 film Cruising (starring Al Pacino as an undercover cop investigating a murder in the NYC gay leather bar scene) was plagued with controversy, and its director was forced by the MPAA to cut 40 minutes of sexually explicit material. Those 40 minutes have never been screened publicly. Filmmakers James Franco and Travis Mathews set out to reimagine what might have transpired in those lost scenes in this intriguing film about the making of a film.
The cameras roll as Franco and Mathews assemble a mix of gay and straight men, including the likeable Val Lauren in the lead role. What emerges is a portrait of the fascinating dynamics that drive the filmmakers' need to challenge normalcy, the interplay of celebrity and experimentation, and the dilemma faced by actors struggling to reconcile who they are with the idea of performing in a sexually explicit, gay, S&M film. The result is a provocative exploration of the importance of the radical and transgressive in society and the value of engaging with things that scare us.

Born: May 18, 1874, Oneonta, New York
Died: February 24, 1971, Seneca County, New York
Walter Burton Ford was a University of Michigan mathematics professor and textbook author involved in the early years of the MAA.
The December 1927 annual meeting included talks on "The Notion of Probable Error in Elementary Statistics" by E.V. Huntington, "The Human Significance of Mathematics" by Dunham Jackson, and "Some Philosophic Aspects of Mathematics" by Arnold Dresden.
In 1928, Ford presented the MAA with a gift of $500, which allowed the Chauvenet Prize to be awarded every three years instead of every five years. He was the biggest contributor to the Chauvenet Fund as of 1971. His philanthropy also extended to numerous educational institutions, and Ithaca College's Ford Hall is named for him.
1893-1895 Amherst College
1895-1897 Harvard University, A.B.
1898 Harvard University, M.A.
1905 Harvard University, Ph.D.
Ford taught as an instructor at the University of Michigan, starting in 1900, before earning his Ph.D., and he returned to Michigan afterward. He became a professor in 1917 and remained there until he retired in 1940.
Ford was deeply invested in his research and produced numerous publications. He hoped that the methods he had developed through much of his career could lead to a proof of the Riemann Hypothesis and continued this work far into his retirement.
As a charter member of the MAA, Ford served on the first MAA committee on libraries. He worked with E.R. Hedrick and R.C. Archibald in the early years of the MAA. He was editor of the American Mathematical Monthly (1923-26) and wrote a series of widely used textbooks for secondary schools.
In 1973, Ford's son contributed to the MAA to establish the Walter Burton Ford Lecture Fund.

And then, I looked at the debug. The issue is that the PS3MS code is asking for free memory, finding that it can't fulfill the transcode buffer request and cribs. Linux doesn't like to leave much RAM free, because the philosophy is to use free RAM for pagecache. We should make the check for total free (free+cache+buffers-unevictable-mlocked-dirty) not just free, and that too only after a malloc() has failed (which won't happen on my system, unless PS3MS wants to malloc more than 24GB). I think the code is doing it the other way around. Its checking for free (and only free) first and halving it if it can accommodate half, cribbing if not. And then doing the malloc.
I think the right sequence should be:
- Code: Select all
malloc(bufsize); // equivalent like ByteBuffer.allocate() I guess, whatever the code is doing now
if NULL
total_free = free+cache+buffers-unevictable-mlocked-dirty (gotten from /proc/meminfo)
if (bufsize/2 < total_free)
if NULL

5:30 p.m. The Ashland School Board is scheduled to meet at 7 tonight to map out strategies, goals and the time line for a new superintendent search after all three finalists for the job bowed out of consideration.
Ashland's top pick for its new school superintendent, Gary Plano, withdrew from consideration Wednesday after a breakdown in contract negotiations. The other two finalists — Debra Munk, principal of Rockville High School in Maryland, and William McCoy, superintendent of Red Bluff, Calif., Union School District — withdrew earlier.
Plano, the superintendent of Mercer Island Schools in Washington, cited a lack of "synergy and immediate connection ... In short, I felt the position wasn't a good fit for me."
Plano said the low salary and tight budgets were not the issue, but that "It boiled down to the relating parties settling on the terms of the contract. We couldn't agree. We discovered that in the process, that it wasn't a good fit."
In an email to his staff, Plano said, "After deep reflection I realized there wasn't the synergy and immediate connection I had over five years ago when I accepted the position as the Mercer Island superintendent. In short, I felt the position wasn't a good fit for me."
Plano said, "I knew that in coming to Oregon there would be a significant pay reduction and it (his withdrawal) was not about the contraction of budgets."
— John Darling
10:45 a.m. The Ashland School District is rebooting its search for a new superintendent shortly after it announced it had picked finalists for the position.
"Our community has set the bar high in their expectations," board chairwoman Carol Davis said today in a news release. "Through community input we created a list of qualifications that our superintendent needs in order to be successful in our district. Although all three finalists had wonderful qualities, none were the right fit for our community."
Finalists included William McCoy, superintendent of Red Bluff Union School District in California, Debra Munk, principal of Rockville High School in Maryland, and Gary Plano, superintendent of Mercer Island School District in Washington had been the district's picks following an initial screening and interview process. The candidates toured the district and met with students and community members Friday.
The Oregon School Boards Association will continue helping the district in its search for a replacement for Juli Di Chiro, who is retiring at the end of the school year, the news release said.

Hello qCAD-Forum,
I am designing the labeling of a box. I only have one color. To highlight a special label I want to use the pen color as background and leave the letters unpainted. My approach was to draw a filled hatch and to write the text in the background color of the drawing. Unfortunately it seems to be not possible to write in white when the drawing background is white using EDIT-ATTRIBUTE-COLOR. I also tried to choose a color that is close to white from the user defined color tab. This looks nice in the fist view. But after saving and reopen the drawing, the text with the user defined color is black again.
Has somebody any idea how to create text in the background color or a different appoach for text in "inverted color mode"?
Many thanks in advance for any help!
P.S.: I use qCAD 184.108.40.206 with SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10.3

When it comes to your Mac, this product is a lifesaver. First, it's relatively inexpensive, you can download the software to try the full version before you buy, and you apparently get lifetime upgrades with your paid license; nice! But this isn't just about money.... I'm a computer specialist (Mac, PC, Unix, Linux) who believes strongly in backups. Why? Because people come to me terribly upset when their hard drives die (and they DO die, fairly often), and I tell them there's nothing they can do but spend a grand or more on data recovery. Very sad. For the price of a few cups of coffee at your local cafe, plus an external hard drive, you can have automated, bootable piece of mind. Take it from me, this is the best backup solution. Aside from backing up your computer, your backups are bootable, which means you can replace and even upgrade your hard drive super easily with a backup-and-restore procedure. Safe, effective and proven time and time again. Best product ever!
Does what it says on the tin, does it easily and reliably.
Use it for on-site machine backups; ability to make bootable clone very useful when hard drive dies or (hopefully) more normally when swapping out for larger capacity or faster drives.
Yeah I know there are other options on the market, yeah I know that you can do all of this using CLI tools. However this is elegant, easy to use, well supported by the dev and above all is very reliable.
Highly recommend considering if you would like to go beyond Timemachine for backups or if you are upgrading hard drives.
Very good app. Does anyone know a similar app for windows?
I love SuperDuper, and have used it for about five years now. I don't consider it to be "slow", since I use it to clone a 150 GB hard drive (currently using about 97GB of it).
I have had success restoring the drive's full-contents, and I love this app...
I have never used TimeMachine, mainly because from what I can tell (with the LITTLE time I spent with the app) it isn't as customizable (set up to be a BIT TOO "easy/user-friendly"). With SuperDuper I can use more advanced settings and it works great!
I have had 3 hard drives failures in macbooks in the past three years. Super duper has come through perfectly each time.
If you have a DROBO i recommend superduper over Time Machine, much safer
SD is not good backup software imho, backup software should never change the source disk, but it does, if power runs out in the middle of a backup your system disk will be seriously messed up, this software messed up my system and had to reinstall from scratch. Good backup software doesn't change the source disk.
Errors were being reported from OSX and I had accidentally thrown away my OSX disks for my new Macbook Pro in a recent house move. I needed those disks to be able to repair the boot disk. Fortunately I use SuperDuper weekly and when it does a backup to my external LaCie disk it makes it bootable. I was then able to boot from the external disk to repair my Macbook Pro disk - hooray!!
Last week only a single app had crashed so severely that not even a uninstall/reinstall fixed the problem! A complete rollback to a backup taken with Superduper a week earlier solved the problem. I finalized the process by updating my home folder with the Time Machine backup.
I also love that I can take my Superduper backup to another Mac and continue working where I left off. Great comfort.
When Leopard came out, I tried to replace SuperDuper with Time Machine as my main backup solution. Time Machine is much faster than SuperDuper's Smart backup, but it does not work transparently; it excludes many large files that would slow it down considerably (VMWare virtual machines are an example), and furthermore, it does not support backing up to anything but a disk or network partition. I like to backup to encrypted disk images, so I went back to SuperDuper.
I suspect that a future version of SuperDuper will interface with fseventsd, like Time Machine, and that this will speed up Smart Backups by orders of magnitude. I would gladly pay for a new version when that happens.
