Giuseppi Logan Kickstarter Project
Via Kickstarter:
The story of Giuseppi Logan is one of grit and tenacity and the power of music. Giuseppi Logan was a contemporary of Albert Ayler, John Coltrane and Pharaoh Sanders. An accomplished sax player, as well as clarinet, flute and piano player, Giuseppi became known for his free form compositional genius. Having studied at the New England Conservatory, in the sixties Logan was hailed as one of the bright lights of free jazz. In the seventies, Giuseppi disappeared from view and remained lost to the music world for well over 30 years.
In this project we will bring you the second record Giuseppi Logan record sponsored by the jazz community on Kickstarter. The goal of this project is to raise the funds to press vinyl for "And They Were Cool" a new record made possible in part by the previous Kickstarter for The Giuseppi Logan Project. When we went into the studio with Giuseppi in June this year, we did so with one goal in mind. Create an environment conducive to following the muse and playing pure jazz improv. Almost a year into recovering from his broken hip, Giuseppi was in better physical health and obviously energized by the talent in the room and having a talented young sax player to challenge him (Jessica Lurie). Piano as well as sax came into play and at the end of the day it became a question of what to leave off the record rather than what to include.

Unfold Ordinary Mind (Eskelin, Cline, Smith, Goldberg, Sudduth) in Philadelphia December 9
From Ars Nova Workshop:
Sunday, December 9, 2012 – 8:00pm
Unfold Ordinary Mind
Ellery Eskelin, tenor saxophone
Rob Sudduth, tenor saxophone
Nels Cline, guitar
Ben Goldberg, contra alto clarinet
Ches Smith, drums
Ars Nova Workshop is pleased to announce the Philadelphia debut of Unfold Ordinary Mind, the new quintet led by Ben Goldberg, featuring Ellery Eskelin, Rob Sudduth, Nels Cline and Ches Smith.
The clarinetist and composer Ben Goldberg, a former student of Steve Lacy and Joe Lovano, has been pulling from the jazz, folk and Klezmer traditions for many years, always managing to discover something uniquely his own. He has worked with Zeena Parkins, Vijay Iyer, Myra Melford, and John Zorn, among others, and is the leader of several celebrated ensembles, including Tin Hat, the New Klezmer Trio and the Ben Goldberg Quintet. Tin Hat's most recent release, The Rain is a Handsome Animal, is a 17-song cycle inspired by the American poet E.E. Cummings, and Goldberg's Orphic Machine premiered its Allen Grossman-inspired pieces this year at the Jewish Music Festival.
After Orphic Machine's debut, Goldberg got the idea for a quintet in which his Eb contra alto clarinet would take the place of a bass player. So he invited the tenor saxophonists Ellery Eskelin and Rob Sudduth, the guitarist Nels Cline (of Wilco fame) and the drummer Ches Smith to Bunker Studio, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. After a few hours of rehearsal, not only was Unfold Ordinary Mind born, but the group also recorded its first album; this eponymous debut will be released in January by Goldberg's label, BAG Productions. About the music, Goldberg says it's "raw, dire, and to the point." Tonight the band makes its Philadelphia debut.

Hiya Hiya needles
Just wanted to share my recent experience with Hiya Hiya needles.
I wish I'd never bought them. I love that they turn at the join so they don't get all twisted up as you knit; however, because they don't have way to tighten them like my knitpick nickel plated (just ordered the harmony needles for mother's day for myself) needles do I've had them come unscrewed with every single project I've used them for.
The customer service also isn't as good as knipicks. The long cables broke on the very first project I used the Hiya's Hiya's for and the company refused to replace it unless I sent it back first. Not a big deal really except when I had the same thing happen with my knitpicks cable they replaced it no questions asked. I also once had a defective needle sent to me (the part where it screws in to the cable didn't exist ie there was no hole to screw the cable into) and it was also replaced no questions asked. Just a small thing that will keep me using knitpicks and not recommending Hiya Hiya.
I've never even heard of Hiya Hiya needles.
I have the KP options, and some of my cables have popped out of the silver eands (from when I used to knit too tightly). Would they replace them after three months, do you think?
I have the interchangable set of HH. I had problems from the manufacturer with the 16 and 24" cables coming unscrewed. I sent them back to the store where I purchased them and waited for 2 weeks to get the new ones. The 24" is okay. The 16 inch continues to come unscrewed. I'm not pleased with them at all.
Knitpicks, on the other hand, has the best customer service on the planet, IMHO.
I share your frustration.
I'm willing to bet they would. E-mail 'em and ask. That's all I've ever done and they always immediately sent replacements.
I sent the broken Hiya Hiya cables back months ago and still have not had them replaced. Considering how much those stupid needles cost you'd think they'd be a bit more responsive. They took forever to ship the needles when I first ordered them too. Should have been my first clue.
On the other hand I ordered the harmony needles last week and they arrived today. Gorgeous, gorgeous set a bit less slick than the nickel plated ones which is nice when you're working with slippery yarn. One of my many ongoing projects is a kimono I'm knitting for myself (first time I've made something that wasn't for a friend/relative/charity) out of a partially silk yarn. It works up very fast on the nickel needles, but they're a bit too slick. Too many frogged rows put the project on hold. I can't wait to try it again with the harmony's.
Knit Picks Options...
Knit Picks has, hands down, the BEST customer service of any company I've ever seen. When I bought my nickel plated set I bought the extra cables in 40", 47" and 60". It was nearly a year later when I had some difficulty with some of the longer cables and one of the shorter ones.
I called Knit Picks and within a few days had new cables in my hands. They are wonderful and I'd go to them first for anything I wanted to buy. I've also used quite a few of their yarns, always with great success, especially the Gloss for socks! Just fabulous.
Happy knittng,
Ruthie :knitting:
I'm so glad that I read this thread! I have been debating ordering the Hiya Hiya interchangeables because I love their circulars. I already have the KP options, harmonies and the new acrylic interchangeable sets, so I needed another set like a hole in the head! Guess that I'll keep my money.
Well, my harmonies had a defective needle (wouldn't tighten on the cord just kept turning and turning) and it's already been replaced! They insisted on replacing the defective cord I have as well, without it being returned, but I had already sent it back so I don't know what size it was.
I worked in customer service for 15 years or so (till we started a family, I've been an at home Mom for 13 years now) so when I come across people that know how important it is I really, really appreciate it. Especially in a world that seems to have forgotten what good customer service really is. Think I'm going to send them a very appreciative e-mail. :yay:
The thing I find worrisome is that people need to call KP so often about defective/whack product...umm...are their products cheap/break easily etc?
I'm getting my KP options in a week and a half, and I worry...
As an aside I know several people who have bought the uber expensive signature circulars and DO have major quality control issues. Nothing is perfect regardless of cost. Enjoy your needles. :thumbsup:

How is a vasectomy done?
A vasectomy is usually performed in the office of urologist, a doctor who specializes in the male urinary tract and reproductive system. In some cases, the urologist may decide to do a vasectomy in an outpatient surgery center or a hospital. This could be because of patient anxiety or because other procedures will be done at the same time.2
There are two ways to perform a vasectomy. In either case, the patient is awake during the procedure, but the urologist uses a local anesthetic to numb the scrotum.
With the conventional method, the doctor makes one or two small cuts in the scrotum to access the vas deferens. A small section of the vas deferens is cut out and then removed. The urologist may cauterize (seal with heat) the ends and then tie the ends with stitches. The doctor will then perform the same procedure on the other testicle, either through the same opening or through a second scrotal incision. For both testicles, when the vas deferens has been tied off, the doctor will use a few stitches or skin "glue" to close the opening(s) in the scrotum.
With the "no-scalpel" method, a small puncture hole is made on one side of the scrotum. The health care provider will find the vas deferens under the skin and pull it through the hole. The vas deferens is then cut and a small section is removed. The ends are either cauterized or tied off and then put back in place. The procedure is then performed on the other testicle. No stitches are needed with this method because the puncture holes are so small.1,3
After a vasectomy, most men go home the same day and fully recover in less than a week.

Contractors and investors that flip properties for their own greed and not give a chance to a real buyer. Contracts that have harsh demands and severe penalties. Properties that are sold as is that needs major repair and sellers command top dollar and they never even picked up a paint brush. People are fighting for greed in the real estate and ending up in court all because of the low interest rate.
If you calculate the savings in interest rate for a 30 year mortgage and the overpriced property that seller demands, you actually are not saving anything.
Being a seller in today's market is financially rewarding, the good news is a seller eventually has to become a buyer

#1 Consumer Suggestion
Way wrong! The seller doesn't have total control of the price.
AUTHOR: Paul - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, December 05, 2004POSTED: Sunday, December 05, 2004
Here, the houses sell for $500 and up. That's for an average home. Anything a little above can easily go for a million!
Who is stupid enough to pay that? Not me! That's for sure. Before I pay half a million for some dump, I'll set up a tent in the woods. Or, live in a cardboard box.
There's no way I'm willing to pay $3,900 a month for the next 30 years.
So, guess what? The crazy prices end as soon as buyers decide it's not worth the asking price. If you get in line, and bid even higher than the last offer, then you're part of the problem.
The correct thing to do is laugh and walk away!

I am a realtor in KY and I see people buying homes that still should be renting. The lower rates allow them to qualify for purchases that they could not afford in a buyers market. The reduced rate more than offset the the inflated therefore real estate is still a solid buy.
As for your agent, if you are not getting the representation you need, find another agent.

Between these features a long plume of Pacific moisture is orientated south to north, with embedded (weak) mid/upper level shortwaves rotating into the plains. Near our CWA one weak shortwave (responsible for showers/sprinkles in our east earlier) is currently exiting to the northeast. Another shortwave trough is upstream over the Texas Panhandle, and a slightly stronger mid level shortwave trough is over northeast Colorado. At the surface a lee trough is in place over eastern Colorado, and secondary surface trough axis extends eastward through our southern CWA. Weak convergence along these features will act as possible initiation points for showers/thunderstorms through this evening. This afternoon-evening: Greater uncertainty exists in coverage, location, and timing of showers/thunderstorms due to the chaotic nature of forcing aloft. Instability is currently weaker than this time yesterday (less than 1000 J/KG ML CAPE) and a stronger CAP has been slower to erode (though it it showing signs in clearing areas near surface boundaries). We are still looking at good potential moisture availability (1-1.2" PWATs) and moisture advection. As instability increase weak pockets of forcing aloft should be enough for shower/thunderstorm development. Latest guidance is now showing better chances tonight with shortwave over TX panhandle and limited coverage in our west in the afternoon. I couldn`t rule out development elsewhere, so I decided against completely removing mention. Monday: As the upper low shifts slightly better forcing is depicted and a stronger precip signal in our east through the day Monday (particularly late Monday afternoon). Due to the nature of the pattern I as still a little hesitant to raise PoPs out of the chance category until we see more consistency. As upper low shifts east air mass aloft will decrease, and depending on timing of cloud cover/precip we may trend cooler than guidance is currently indicating. For now consensus is favoring slightly below normal highs in the lower 80s for most locations in our CWA. .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 202 PM MDT Sun Aug 28 2016 Weak upper low situated over southwestern Colorado Monday night will continue to slowly weaken and push northeast on Tuesday. A surface high will build westward at the same time and eventually move into the central High Plains. Forcing will be strong enough on Tuesday afternoon/evening to allow thunderstorm development along a very weak shortwave and theta-e boundary. We could see strong to marginally severe thunderstorms; however, widespread severe is not expected. Very heavy rain will be possible with the stronger thunderstorms and will combine with relatively slow storm motion along the boundary; all of this will lead to increased flash flood risk. This system will remain nearly stationary on Wednesday with increased PoPs across the region, especially in the eastern portions of the CWA. H5 low pressure pushes onshore in southwestern British Columbia on Thursday and will speed up the pattern a bit as we head into the end of next week. The boundary that was stationary through Thursday will push off to the east and allow the region to dry out as we head into Friday. Temperatures will be in the upper 70s to lower 80s through Thursday with middle to upper 80s on Friday. Lows will fall into the upper 50s to lower 60s through the extended period. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening) Issued at 548 PM MDT Sun Aug 28 2016 VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period at MCK and GLD with scattered thunderstorms developing and moving across the region after 18Z. && .GLD Watches/Warnings/Advisories...

Proust's Muse, The Countess Greffulhe features 40 extraordinary fashions and accessories from the fabulous wardrobe of Élisabeth de Caraman-Chimay, the Countess Greffulhe (1860-1952). A famous beauty celebrated for her "aristocratic and artistic elegance," the countess fascinated her contemporaries, including Marcel Proust who told her cousin, Robert de Montesquiou, "I have never seen a woman so beautiful." When Proust wrote his great novel In Search of Lost Time (À la recherche du temps perdu), the Countess Greffulhe was one of the primary inspirations for his immortal fictional character, Oriane, the Duchess de Guermantes, of whom he wrote, "Each of her dresses seemed like...the projection of a particular aspect of her soul."
Proust's Muse is based on La Mode retrouvée: Les robes trésors de la comtesse Greffulhe, an exhibition organized in Paris by Olivier Saillard, director of the Palais Galliera, Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris, which is the repository of the countess's wardrobe. Dr. Valerie Steele, director and chief curator of The Museum at FIT, has organized the exhibition in New York in collaboration with Saillard.

Black Fashion Designers examines the impact of African American and African designers on the fashion industry. Drawing exclusively from The Museum at FIT's permanent collection, the exhibition features approximately 70 fashion objects that illustrate the individual styles of more than 30 designers, placing them within a wider fashion context. Objects date from the 1950s to the present, including mid-century evening gowns by Anne Lowe and the jovial, yet controversial, work of Patrick Kelly from the 1980s. Contemporary pieces include Lagos-based designer Maki Oh's spring 2013 dress, which reconceptualizes Nigerian traditions, and pieces from the latest runways of established designers, such as Tracy Reese, and emerging talents, such as Charles Harbison. The exhibition addresses the influence of black fashion models as well, by highlighting milestone events, such as "The Ebony Fashion Fair." Black Fashion Designers is meant to enliven the conversation about historic and ongoing issues of diversity within the fashion industry. It honors the creative talents of designers who are often overlooked and provides a fresh, holistic view of the fashion industry, emphasizing the significant roles in culture and society played by black designers.Image: Stephen Burrows, coatdress, wool, Fall 1970, USA, gift of Stephen Burrows.

Paris Refashioned, 1957-1968 will examine the significant role that Paris played during one of the most fascinating and groundbreaking periods in fashion history. In 1957, twenty-one-year-old Yves Saint Laurent was made creative director of the esteemed couture house of Christian Dior. His first solo collection for Dior included his A-line "trapeze" dresses, ushering in an unmistakable shift toward more relaxed and ultimately more youthful designs—and with it, dramatic changes to the couture fashion industry.
By 1963, a group of young French ready-to-wear designers known as the stylistes had begun to make an impact on fashion both in their home country and abroad. Their of-the-minute fashions, which were favored by style arbiters such as Brigitte Bardot, presented an unexpected challenge to the more staid, costly, and labor-intensive creations of the couturiers. By 1968, some of the best-known couturiers—including Saint Laurent, Pierre Cardin, and André Courrèges—were presenting ready-to-wear lines in addition to their couture creations. Paris Refashioned will examine the shift from the unassailable dominance of the haute couture to the newfound influence of ready-to-wear.Image: Couture Future (ready-to-wear label by André Courrèges), pantsuit, 1968, wool blend, France, gift of Mrs. Phillip Schwartz.

May – November 2017
Force of Nature examines how the beauty and complexity of the natural world have inspired fashion designers for centuries. The exhibition places more than 75 objects from MFIT's permanent collection, dating from the 18th century to the present, within a context of period philosophies and scientific literature in order to demonstrate the deep interconnectedness between fashion and nature. An enthusiasm for country life is represented with a 1785 robe à l'anglaise that illustrates a movement towards simple dress, influenced by philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau, who urged a return to nature. A dress by Alexander McQueen from his acclaimed final collection in 2010, presents a meditation upon Charles Darwin's theory of evolution and concern over climate change. More than a survey of flora, fauna, and geology as merely decorative, the exhibition reveals the natural world as a nexus of ideas and symbolism in fashion design. Force of Nature aims to contribute to today's important, ongoing conversation about society's relationship with the natural world and humankind's place within it.Image: Alexander McQueen, Plato's Atlantis collection, Spring 2010, England, museum purchase.

Hi, me again. So far, so good, now that I got the plugin working and the badges showing up where I want them. I just have one thing I'm looking to achieve. I want to award achievements for 'checking-in', kind of like Get Glue. Basically, I create a badge for a specific post, and if people comment on that post, they get a badge.
I was thinking maybe the setting could work this way, under the 'commented on a post' option, there's an extra box for 'post id'. If the box is empty or 0, the achievement works on every post comment, if a valid id is entered (maybe multiple ids separated by commas?!), then only that posts comments earns badges.
I'm not the greatest at PHP, but if it's something you're not willing to work on, I'd be willing to try my hand at this if it was possible. It should be possible right?

Sorry you're having such a hard time, Darren! Are you going to finish out the program?
Darren Hood, MSIME, MSUXDShared publicly -
Can't believe how terrible of an experience I've had in DePaul's online HCI M.S. program. The courses are overly-demanding, much of the overall work isn't relevant, and the instructional design expertise lacks tremendously. Assignments aren't clear, irrelevant courses are required, and administrative support systems are chaotic. Going to DePaul was a HUUUUUUGE mistake. Hoping to rebound and continue pursuing my goals soon, but it won't be via DePaul University.
Nope. Classes end this week. I'm headed to Michigan State in January 2012. Planning to transfers the completed credits to Kent State and possibly finish my User Experience M.S. degree there. I'm also considering completing my HCI studies at Bentley University. Haven't had a meeting with them yet though.

Why Are These Guys Playing Football During a Basketball Game?
This rec league basketball game began with a nod to another sport.
This rec league basketball game began with a nod to another sport.
We don't know how many of these guys ended up with concussions, but it's probably best not to think about that if you want to enjoy this.
KISS-FM has your chance to win a pair of tickets for IU vs Southern Illinois at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington!
Checking in with the experts... Or something like that.
If you haven't noticed, there's a little nip in the air & the leaves are starting to change colors. If that isn't proof positive that fall has finally arrived, here are 5 more ways to tell Fall is here!
Forget the opposing team -- these pint-sized football players had their hands full long before kickoff.
KISS-FM has your chance to win a pair of tickets for IU vs Maryland at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington!
For the first time in my life, I attended a professional athletic event, Colts vs. Eagles at Lucas Oil Stadium, and I thought I would share some of my photos with you!
KISS-FM has your chance to win a pair of tickets for the opening home game of IU football! PLUS you can get qualified to win FOUR SEASON TICKETS!!!
Here's an important memo for Peyton Manning -- we get it, already. You're a fantastic football player and an even better family man.
Recently, I had the good fortune of vacationing in Jacksonville, FL, and visiting EverBank Field - home of the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's no secret that the Jags have struggled the past few years and selling seats depends a great deal on how the team is performing.
But, with a new owner, comes new possibilities, new ideas and new construction and I got a first-hand look at what will become a Florida oasis in stadium-form.
Women playing football for a great cause? Best. Idea. Ever.

A source of strength ? is located at (0,0) and a doublet of strength K (whose axis is pointing in the negative x direction) is located at (a,0). Find the locations on the x axis of the two stagnation points in the combined flow.
Passing through these stagnation points, a closed body enclosing the doublet is generated, whose contour is described by ?=0 streamline. Sketch the body contour and some streamlines outside the body. The following phenomenon will be observed in the sketch:
The faster flow speed on the left side of the body, signified by the more crowded streamlines there, indicates that the local pressure is less that the pressure on the right side of the body. In the absence of viscous forces, the resultant pressure force will push the body in the direction toward the source. The result of this problem serves as one example to show that in an incompressible potential flow, a force can be generated on a body even in the absence of a circulation around the body.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Wednesday, July 25, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The Better Business Bureau of the CSRA is warning consumers about someone posing as a representative of the Augusta Jaycees to collect donations.
Carroll Proctor is a local business owner and is accustomed to taking calls from organizations asking for donations.
"We get them all the time. This one was unusual," he said.
The call was unusual because the person over the phone identified herself with a group Proctor knows very well.
"Being a past president of the Augusta Jaycees, we used to have problems with people using our name fraudulently," he said.
The woman on the phone claimed to be selling ad space for the Augusta Jaycees. However, as the former chapter president, he knew that was impossible.
"There is no longer a Jaycees chapter in Richmond or Columbia, so I knew the phone call was fraud," Proctor said.
The Augusta chapter of the Jaycees closed several years ago.
Proctor ended the conversation after telling the woman on the phone that he knew there wasn't a chapter here and that she was a fake.
"It's raising money pretty much to line someone else's pocket and not help charitable organizations," he said.
Proctor didn't fall for the scam but worries others may and local charities could suffer.
News 12's Liz Owens contacted the Georgia Jaycees. A spokesperson urges concerned citizens to contact the Georgia Jaycees if they believe someone is impersonating the organization.

The highest form of flattery
Rearranging storage tubs in my garage the other day, I ran across one of the most prized possessions from my childhood: my Girl Scout sash.
Immediately, the words of the Girl Scout promise came to mind.
On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout law.
I couldn't remember the law, which I'm certain I was required to memorize. I know there was something about being friendly, honest and respectful and making the world a better place. I'm still working on that last one.
As I ran my fingers over the many satin-stitched badges and gold pins, my hand came to rest on a special cookie patch.
It's that time of year again, I thought. Thin Mints!
I spent a lot of spring days peddling cookies. Thankfully my best friend's mother drove a station wagon. We needed plenty of space for hundreds of boxes. That special patch came from being the troop's top seller at least one year.
You don't get to be the top seller without knowing exactly what you're promoting, so I tried them all.
The peanut butter sandwiches weren't my favorite but lots of people wanted them. I liked the peanut butter patties better because, of course, they were covered in chocolate.
Shortbreads were all right, as long as milk was available, and I took a liking to the Caramel DeLites when they came out because they had coconut on them.
But my all-time favorite and undeniable addiction has always been the Thin Mints. Who can argue with the perfect marriage of dark chocolate and peppermint?
According to the Girls Scouts of America, few disagree. Thin Mints have always been the top-selling variety.
When I closed the lid on the Girl Scout sash, I decided I didn't want to wait until the middle of February or later for a Thin Mint. My palate was set now.
I cruised through Pinterest (another undeniable addiction) and found a recipe.
After mixing, rolling and cutting the crispy chocolate discs, I baked them and then dipped the rounds in smooth, minty chocolate.
It was so hard to wait while the coating dried. They smelled just like the foil sleeve of real Thin Mints from the green Girl Scout box.
I held off just long enough and then popped a whole cookie in my mouth, hoping to fool my taste buds into believing they were authentic.
It has been said that imitation is the highest form of flattery.
Be flattered, Girl Scouts, but don't feel threatened. My version wouldn't pass for the real thing.
If you're selling Thin Mints, I'm still an easy target.

This is just a simple wooden box and i painted it with a dark cherry looking acrylic paint
and the cut out die cut pieces to do the top and to give texture for the sides. I repainted the
paper so that it would all blend in and i really like how it came out.
This one was inspired by a special little boy that was going through some really tough time in the hospital. We got the first of our word dies in and it really came out neat using the browns and oranges from this Basic Grey line of papers.
And this one was just fun to do. The papers gave it a really country feel and i always love to try and use the dies in different ways but tucking them under other things or layering them to make up fun and new designs. There are so many dies out there on the market and i hope you get a few out today and make up something fun for someone special in your life :)
Have a wonderful and crafty day.... Teresa

HBO's Tammy Ross sees PPV model at crossroads, cites Pacquiao-Bradley III
HBO's Tammy Ross, who announced she was stepping down today, said tonight's PPV highlighted for her that the industry has reached an identity crisis.
HBO's Tammy Ross, who announced she was stepping down today, said tonight's PPV highlighted for her that the industry has reached an identity crisis.
Former HBO pay-per-view boss Mark Taffet revealed the buys and take for the recent Canelo Alvarez-Miguel Cotto middleweight championship bout.
Although retired, Floyd Mayweather Jr. can still kick up a cloud of controversy when it comes to talking boxing.
How well did Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Andre Berto do in pay-per-view buys? Despite conflicting reports, we can all agree on one thing: Not that great.
In support of Shane Mosley-Ricardo Mayorga II, junior featherweight Maureen Shea is relishing the opportunity to perform in front of a larger audience.
A source tells RingTV that Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s next fight won't be on CBS, because there's just no way for Floyd to make enough money on "free" TV.
The welterweight championship match between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao is indeed a pay-per-view record-breaker. And the number of buys is expected to continue climbing.
The Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao fight on Saturday almost certainly will break all pay-per-view records. From a pound-for-pound perspective, though, it won't even approach the numbers of the 1991 fight between Evander Holyfield and George Foreman.
Would you consider Floyd Mayweather Jr. a bona fide Showtime fighter when he's only featured on pay-per-view? Top Rank Promotions' Bob Arum completely nixes that notion.
With potentially the biggest fight in recent memory nearly upon us, WBO welterweight titlist Manny Pacquiao reflects on the importance of facing RING champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. this Saturday.
Despite fierce competition from rival networks, Sky Sports has secured the broadcasting rights to the $300 million megabout between welterweight superstars Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao.
With Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s last fight generating disappointing numbers (at least by his standards) and multiple controversies during the past week, the rematch with Marcos Maidana will be telling of how strong Mayweather's brand is.
Speculation is becoming reality as Marcos Maidana is confirming that talks for a September 13 rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. are indeed in the works.
Will Floyd Mayweather Jr. face Marcos Maidana again in September? It certainly looks like it with the pound-for-pound king recently dropping the hint as well as promising a surprise for next year.
The Canelo Alvarez-Alfredo Angulo headlined Showtime PPV last Saturday generated well over 350,000 buys, Showtime Networks Inc. and the event promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, announced on Friday.
Lightweight titleholder Omar Figueroa on his March 8 bout: "If the knockout doesn't come, and if I happen to hurt my hands again, then I'm mentally strong and I can adjust, and I know that I can go 12 rounds and win this fight."
Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer has announced that the four-bout Showtime Pay Per View card to be headlined by former RING 154-pound champion Canelo Alvarez and junior middleweight contender Alfredo Angulo will be broadcast live to select theaters nationwide on March 8.
Two weeks after his victory over Saul Alvarez in the highest grossing pay-per-view boxing match ever, Floyd Mayweather Jr. made a triumphant return to New York, where four months ago he kicked off his promotional tour for the record-setting show.
Ex-middleweight champ Kelly Pavlik may have to take smaller purses and compete in undercard fights in order to recapture the luster lost with his recent decision to pull out of a Showtime-televised bout.

Mike and Henry
Congratulations to Our Outstanding Sierrans
At the February General Meeting, two of our longtime volunteers were presented with the Outstanding Sierran award.
Mike Knight earned the award for years of behind-the-scenes maintenance of the EMG computers, making continued improvements to the EMG website, assisting Del Johnson in mailing the SierraScape, and tabling at the Missouri Botanical Garden's Earth Day event.
Henry Robertson was honored for serving on the EMG ExCom for 8 years, serving as the Energy Chair for Missouri Chapter and EMG, writing the language for the Clean Energy Initiative (which passed into law in 2008), and making a continuing effort in progressing and promoting green energy and a clean environment in Missouri.
We thank Mike and Henry for their invaluable contributions and their continued involvement.
Renewable Energy Ballot Initiative
Renewable energy holds great promise that other states are capitalizing on with smart public policies, but frustratingly, Missouri is falling behind. As empowered citizens, however, we can create a responsible energy future by putting a strong, effective Renewable Energy Standard (RES) on the ballot in November. We call it the Power to the People Initiative.
What would a strong RES mean for Missouri's future?
- 25% of our electricity from clean, renewable energy sources by 2025, instead of 81% from coal, the dirtiest source of power.
- Lives saved thanks to less mercury, air pollution and harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
- A true investment in Missouri's economy, instead spending $1.3 billion a year to purchase coal from out of state.
- Good permanent jobs that cannot be outsourced, in fast-growing sectors such as the solar and wind industries.
- Protection for ratepayers from rate hikes, and lower energy costs through competition and choice.
Get trained to collect signatures to put the Power to the People initiative on the November ballot! We need 160,000 signatures by early May, and with your help, we can do it. The next Volunteer Training in St. Louis will be:
Tuesday, March 27 at 7 p.m.
at Missouri Coalition for the Environment, 6267 Delmar Blvd., Suite 2E, St. Louis, MO 63130 (map)
To ensure that we have adequate materials, please RSVP by Friday, March 23. Call 314-359-4697 or send an email .
Backyard Chicken Seminar
The Friends of the City of Richmond Heights is sponsoring a seminar on backyard chickens titled "The Scoop on the Coop: An Overview of Raising and Caring for Backyard Chickens" on Thursday, March 29 at 7:00 p.m. at the Richmond Heights Community Center, 8001 Dale Ave. (map)
This seminar is FREE and open to the public. Everyone is welcome, not just Richmond Heights residents.
The presenter is Bill Ruppert, a St. Louis urban chicken enthusiastic who gives talks on this topic to various groups each year. The items covered in his talk include:
- Understanding the "culture" of chickens
- Nutrition and general health care
- Sustainable shelter design
- How and where to purchase chicks
- Preparing for the arrival of chicks
A question-and-answer session will follow the talk. For more information, email Linda Lieb or call: 314-646-8818.
The Richmond Heights City Council passed a new law that allows residents to raise backyard chickens. The law went into effect January 5, 2012.
"Because of the time and financial investment required to raise chickens, our Friends group wants to help residents learn about whether chicken raising is for them," said Linda Lieb, board member of Friends of the City of Richmond Heights and coordinator of the effort to have the law passed. "For those considering this adventure, the seminar provides information on what to expect and how to prepare."

Join Us for Trail Work the Ozark Trail
Blair Creek Section is one of the earliest sections of the OT and was completed by the Sierra Club and our friends about 1979. In November, 2011 President Obama's America's Great Outdoors initiative chose the completion of the Ozark Trail as 1 of 2 great conservation opportunities in Missouri. Conservation easements must be obtained and trail built in the northern 108 miles from downtown St. Louis and 125 miles in southern Missouri. Upon completion the Ozark trail will run 800 miles from St. Louis to the Ozark Highland Trail in Arkansas. Don't worry, we will only be working on a few miles of this trail in the Roger Pryor Backcountry.
Join us on March 24 and 25 (Saturday and Sunday) for maintenance work on the Blair Creek Section and enjoyment of a very special place in the Ozark Mountains. Free camping at Himont. Bring sturdy foot wear, work gloves, a tent and other camping gear. All meals and tools will be furnished. Email Bob Gestel, (636) 296-8975, or Paul Stupperich, (314) 429-4352.

Be Part of the Public Process of the St Louis Regional Plan for Sustainable Development
Citizens and business owners are needed for accurate planning and for building our area.
On October 14, 2010, a grant of $4.7 million for the St Louis area was announced for planning "to build economic competitiveness by connecting housing with good jobs, quality schools and transportation." Because there are 11 core partners as well as many hundreds supporting them, it is believed that another $3.5 million is being leveraged into this process. Please contribute your opinions by attending the community meeting that is closest to you.

Career Resources
Connecticut Healthcare Career Resources
Diagnostic medical sonographers in Connecticut earned a median salary of $77,950 per year in 2013*, which is significantly higher than the national median of $66,410. This makes Connecticut one of the top paying states for medical imaging. Growth in the industry is strong, with a 38% increase in employment predicted through 2022.
If a sonography program is not available in your area, you might consider looking into a related field. You'll find a variety of programs listed below that can fit into your long-term goals. Begin your career by requesting information from a school. You'll get the opportunity to have your questions answered to be sure they offer what you're looking for.
By The Numbers
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics has an estimated employment growth of 38% by 2022 for diagnostic medical sonographers.
With an annual median salary of $77,950 (2013 data), which is considerably higher than the national median of $66,410.
Certification Requirements in Connecticut
Connecticut does not require licensure or certification for diagnostic medical sonographers. However, many states are considering moving towards licensure, so it's a smart thing to consider if you want to be a competitive candidate for these sought after positions. Many employers require professional certification, typically by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS). The only way to earn certification is by taking and passing their exam. There are three locations in Connecticut to take the exam, and you can find them on the ARDMS website at ardms.org, or by calling the testing company Pearson Vue at 1-877-258-9220.
In order to take the ARDMS test, you must meet one of their prerequisites. The easiest way to qualify to sit for the exam is to graduate from a program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP). Otherwise, you'll need 12 months of full time clinical experience. You can read more about the testing prerequisites on the ARDMS website. Request information from several ultrasound technician schools in Connecticut, and do the research to make sure that they meet the certification requirements you're looking for.

Ultrasound Technician Schools in New Haven
The healthcare industry is going strong in New Haven, largely supported by the Yale-New Haven hospital, which is the largest employer in the county, as well as the top-ranked Level 1 Trauma Center in the country. Sonographers in New Haven earned a median salary of $79,500 in 2014, which is well above the national median.
Job growth in New Haven and other city centers is strong and is outpacing the rural areas of the state. According to an article in the New Haven Independent, "New Haven's urban core experienced an 11 percent increase in jobs (a gain of 9,000 jobs), even as the number of jobs in the surrounding ring declined by 4.4 percent (a loss of 10,000 jobs)".
While you're pursuing your education at a sonography school in New Haven, take a break from studying to see the sights. There is much to do, no matter your interests. If you enjoy the outdoors, tour the fabulous foliage in the fall, which draws tourists from all over the country. There is also plenty of hiking in the state and national forests, or you can visit a wildlife refuge. If you're in one of the many college towns, there are plenty of breweries, wineries, restaurants, and shops to meet up with friends and relax. Connecticut combines the best of education, fun, and a positive economic outlook for students.

Little League may be going strong in Snohomish County, but it's flagging in other parts of the country, and organizers say they're looking for ideas on how to get more kids playing baseball.
The Buzz can think of a few ways to revitalize kids' interest in Little League:
Give players a $25 daily meal voucher at Carl's Jr.
Oh thank heaven: An Arlington man gets to run the Winter Olympics torch today on its way to Vancouver, B.C., thanks to his job — he's in charge of all 7-Eleven stores in Canada.
He'll be the guy with the torch in one hand and a Slurpee in the other.

A courtyard serves as a private oasis, particularly if you are in the middle of a city or urban area. Courtyards can be basic or feature a theme, such as a butterfly garden courtyard or a courtyard featuring only wildflowers. Other ideas include courtyards full of only desert or bulb plants. Choose plants based on climate, sun to shade ratio, and how large or small your courtyard is.
Research which plants and trees may result in structural building damage. If necessary, discuss viable plant options with a nursery owner. Use plants that fall within your area's U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zones, as well as plants that suit the space you're working with. For example, if dealing with a small courtyard, don't plant saplings that will grow into large trees or huge bushes. Write down the potential size each plant you're considering.
Make a rough sketch of your courtyard to help you plan where you want to plant and use garden features. Sit out in your courtyard all day with a notebook and write down where and when the sun hits each part of the space, and for how long. Make notes of any areas you think may cause drainage issues. Compare these factors with your plans for your courtyard garden, especially if you have several water features, shade-loving plants and plants that require a lot of sun. Write down areas to plant shade-tolerant species for shadier areas of the courtyard if applicable, and sun-loving, more drought-resistant species in areas that receive full sun.
Choose blue, green, white and purple tones to make the courtyard appear larger. Red, yellow and orange hues tend to make the space appear smaller. Mixing too man colors in a courtyard garden can make the area seem small and cramped.
Remove any debris and weeds in your courtyard's spaces and cultivate the soil for planting. Plant each section of your courtyard based on your sketch. Do not plant too many plants in each area, which can result in a space that becomes rapidly overgrown and congested.
Plant a few flowers and herbs in baskets you can hang around the courtyard to maximize your use of vertical space. Choose a style for your hanging basket, such as wire, woven and wooden baskets, based on your courtyard theme. Pick baskets that will fit the type of plants you wish to use them for. Use strong chains and hooks to hang each basket. Choose spots in the courtyard where you can easily water the baskets. You can also use the baskets to hide something unattractive in the courtyard.
Use moveable containers to allow simple changes within your courtyard garden. Use containers for plants that need to go indoors during the winter.
Things You Will Need
- Garden spade
- Garden shovel
- Garden fork
- Plants, trees and shrubs
- Hanging baskets
- Containers
- Use removable shade cloth panels during the summer if your courtyard receives full sun.
- Create a painted landscape scene on a courtyard wall to give the space depth.
- Use hanging basket liners, such as sphagnum mosses and coconut fibers, to improve water drainage in hanging basket plants.
- Use concrete slabs and glazed pavers for more formal courtyard gardens, and brick or stone for softer, more causal look.
- Use dwarf trees to make the space appear larger.

Sounds good!! I wonder if it would taste okay if I left out the red pepper flakes? (I love them but the husband doesn't really like spicy!!)
- Christy said...
I'm pretty confident it would still taste good without the red pepper. I didn't even taste them, and with everything else, you have enough seasoning if it's not a hit with the family. :O)

AMHERST, N.H. (AP) � A veteran of two wars from New Hampshire who went missing in action in Korea is getting some overdue medals.
Rep. Charlie Bass presented a Purple Heart and other seven other service medals on Monday to the Amherst family of Christopher Y. Vars, a sergeant and infantryman in the Army who was reported missing in action on Nov. 29, 1950.
Vars served in World War II and the Korean War and was reported missing in action in November 1950 during the Chosin Reservoir Campaign, a 17-day battle in which thousands of U.S. soldiers died. In 2009, the family was contacted by the military about some remains that were found in North Korea and asked for a DNA sample for possible identification.
Results of the DNA test are still pending.

The UK has recently repealed a fairly obscure bit of copyright law – should you be worried?
Since the repeal of s.52 of the CDPA (Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988), on 28 July 2016, the main impact will be felt my manufacturers and distributors of furniture and interior design products. But there may also be an impact on use of 2D images of the affected objects.
As we explained in our previous blog on this subject, s.52 of the CDPA meant that if certain types of artistic work had been exploited industrially (51 or more articles produced) copyright would expire 25 years after first marketing. Artistic works are a broad category, including graphic works, photographs, sculptures, collages, architecture and works of artistic craftsmanship. But several classes were carved out, leaving the main class of works affected as industrially produced works of artistic craftsmanship.
There is some debate about what qualifies as a work of artistic craftsmanship. Broadly speaking:
- it should be "artistic":
- some aesthetic quality is required, although it need not be a work of fine art; and
- evidence of the creator's intention to create a work of art is relevant.
- it should involve "craftsmanship" evidenced by:
- the exercise of skill on the part of the creator; and
- the creator taking pride in his workmanship.
Typical examples are hand-painted tiles, stained glass, cutlery, needlework, cabinet making and original jewellery.
As a result of the repeal, images, photos or other 2D copies of works of artistic craftsmanship that have been industrially produced will now have protection in the UK for the creator's life plus 70 years. It may now be necessary to review your images library, and any applicable licence agreements, to avoid infringing the revived rights.
You can read more here.
