The mistake is in putting all the oil in before blending. You must add the oil slowly. It works, really.
I tried making some home made mayo using the technique from this video and all I got was a bad tasting liquidy goo.
I'm so frustrated I want to scream. I feel like I wasted a bunch of money on a stick blender and ingredients.
Someone please help me. I really want to make some mayo, but it seems like it's impossible to make.

I only use 1/3 cup oil per egg, dry mustard and a squeeze of lemon juice & a bit of salt. Mine always is liquid, but that's how I like it, because I grew up with liquid mayo.
I think he adds all oil, as he lifts the blender from the bottom up to top as the mayo solidifies.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
I didn't see the video, but I've made it with an immersion blender (kitchen aid). I used light olive oil with lemon juice, dry mustard, and one egg. I put it all in at once and blended. It turned out great. If I were to use a regular blender, I would slowly pour in the oil.
What was bad about your mayo?

If you still have your liquid goo sitting around, you could possibly add an additional egg yolk. Put the yolk at the bottom of a container that you can use with the immersion blender and then slowly pour your goo into that. I've always just plopped the egg straight out of the fridge into the bottom of the immersion blender beaker then put whatever spices/herbs I was using on top of that, give it a quick whirl, add in about a cup of oil stick the blender in down to the bottom, turn it on and slowly bring it to the surface. I haven't had a failure yet.
I've tried making mayo the blender/slow drizzle way and have never had a success that way although some folks swear by that method.
I'm too lazy to use a whisk.

Maybe try again with all fresh stuff. I know how anger inducing it is to waste such expensive ingredients. But the stick blender is a good thing to have regardless if it works for mayo. It's great for pureeing soup and mine has a little food processor attachment that I use to rice cauliflower as well as chop onions and other veggies.
kiss = keep it simple, sister!
Having everything a room temperature helps. I use a stick blender and it took me 2 or 3 tries before I got it right. I added the oil all at once right after the egg yolk.
I use a hand whisk, not a blender.
Whisk your yolks until they are soft and light, and then drizzle in melted butter whisking constantly. Drizzle in oil .. that's fine, too.
Mayo takes time and effort - as a primal, the thought of some activity should put a smile on your face just as much as eating the food afterwards! Jump in, have fun ... with a hand whisk.
That stick blender is still very useful indeed! All manner of trimmings and things you'd otherwise throw away can be made into little soups and "amuse bouches". As an off-topic side not, take a nose at: living in the ice age: Cauliflower Stalk Amuse Bouche and living in the ice age: Romanescu Stalk Amuse Bouche
Back to mayo ... have another go.
Oh, one I like is with a good squeeze of pink grapefruit!

I'll lose my mind every night,
I look through these red eyes and think through a clouded mind.
Thoughts out of control, paranoia living on my back, the colour of envy.
The colour of envy, but I'm content, sinking down into life's cement,
Just leave me here for a while.
Flying high with all of you, just let ourselves go for a night.
I'll keep these memories forever, but I'll forget them in the morning.
My life through these red eyes and a clouded mind.
I'll grow up one day soon but this time next year you'll be right back next to me,
Filling up my head with flawless plans that'll never surface.
This time next year you'll be right back next to me.

WELLSVILLE - The Wellsville Tigers are at their best when they are running and trapping, and last night that is what they were did on their way to an 89-41 win over the Sebring Trojans at Wellsville High School in an Inter-Tri County League lower tier matchup.
Wellsville is are now 11-1, 8-0 in the ITCL lower tier. Sebring drops to 4-8, 2-6 in the league.
Sharpshooter Nate Scott paced the Tigers with 34, while tying Sam McIntosh for team honors with five rebounds. Scott found time to dish out six assists and nab four steals. Guardmate Camden Douglas jammed in 17 while also passing out assists. Seth Bradford tallied 10 while pulling down four missed shots and snatching four steals. Brendon Carr and Jordan Sloan each contributed seven points. Antonio Fultz passed out six assists while scoring five points.
Even though Sebring trailed by large margins throughout the game, Eddie Kolisar plugged away, scoring 13 points. He was the only Trojan in double figures. Joe Davis netted eight for Sebring.
Playing at the front of the press, Douglas broke free for seven of the Tigers' first 10 points including one dunk. Wellsville's lead expanded to 14-0 before Logan Barnes made a foul shot to end Sebring's scoring drought. Nate Scott connected for eight points over the final three minutes of the quarter.
Collecting eight steals in the first quarter enabled the Tigers to roar out to a 28-7 lead after the first eight minutes of play.
"Our plan was to press and trap halfcourt," said Wellsville head coach David "Bug" Thompson. "We didn't want to let them get into their halfcourt game offensively. As the quarter went on, we extended the press further as the players told us that they could do it and they did. I was concerned about getting into foul trouble."
After a blistering first quarter, the Tigers cooled off slightly, outscoring their guests 20-15 in the second frame. Coming off the bench, Carr, McIntosh and Jansen Stoakes made vital contributions enabling Thompson's charges to keep up a fast pace.
"That's big for us in the whole picture, to get those guys quality playing time," said Thompson. "We are going to need those guys down the stretch, probably at tournament time. They executed like they were supposed to."
Though he was disappointed with the outcome, Sebring head coach Josh Scott did see some positives in the loss.
"We saw a lot of poise by our younger guys," said Scott who is in his first year at Sebring after directing the Western Reserve girls program the past five years. "There wasn't a lot of positives from a statistical point of view. But, our guys did display a great deal of heart. Let's be honest. Wellsville is a very good team."
Utilizing their superior team speed, the Tigers sprinted past the Trojans by a 29-8 count in third period. The scoring barrage was punctuated by a Douglas jam at the 1:33 mark. Scott singed the nets for 19 points during the quarter, leaving the Tigers comfortably in front 77-30 at the end of three quarters.
"Nate started hitting threes. As coaches we have become spoiled," said the Wellsville mentor. "We have come to expect every shot that he puts up to go in."
The fourth quarter saw mix of starters and benchmen as both coaches rotated all of their players into the game.
In addition to his two dunks, Douglas appeared as though he had the opportunity to dunk on three others, but was fouled each time on his way to the hoop.
The Tigers shot 52 percent (31 of 60) from the floor. They came up with 19 steals.
The Wellsville jayvees led the entire way as they defeated their Sebring counterparts 53-43 in the prelim. Branzen Grodhaus led the young Tigers with 24 points, followed by Justin Miller eight, Nigel Spann eight and Hayden Dalrymple seven. Alex Wheeler led the Trojans with 10 supported by Aaron McDaniel eight.
Sebring plays at United on Tuesday while Wellsville travels to Beaver Local on Wednesday.
The game was webcast on www.wellsvillealumni.com.

A woman said her father's burned body was found in the trunk of a car several miles west of Fort Wayne International Airport.
Danisha Warren-Baker said the body of her 51-year-old father, Steven Dwayne Turner, had been burned so badly authorities can't tell whether he had been tied up.
The Allen County Sheriff's Department officials have termed his death suspicious, but have declined to comment on where in the car the body was found Wednesday morning.
The Allen County Coroner's Office said the cause of death is still undetermined.
The investigation into his death is ongoing.

After cheating allegations have trained the spotlight on "Jon & Kate Plus 8" parents Jon and Kate Gosselin, stories have surfaced that nothing — neither the marriage nor perfect picture of domesticity — on the reality show is real.
In a video interview with RadarOnline.com, Kate's brother Kevin Kreider and his wife Jodi (anybody remember redheaded Aunt Jodi from the show's earlier seasons?) reveal that Kate is big on delegating all of her housewife duties to others so she can focus on book tours, speaking engagements and promoting the show.
"Where it all sort of goes foul is that they claim they're doing it all themselves," says her brother. "It's just a snowjob."
Kevin also adds that his sister has refused any sort of marriage counseling and that Jon was "hurt" when she told him their marriage was over.
Wait a minute. What? But aren't they still married?
Well, according to the oh so reliable Star magazine, the Gosselins have continued with the pretense of a happy marriage that's governed by a secret contract in which Jon gets to have girlfriends on the side as long has he plays the good husband on the show.
And why did Kevin and Jodi mysteriously disappear from the show? Word is that Kate became irate when TLC offered to pay the Kreiders for their time and appearances on the program and stipulated that only she and Jon would get paid for the gig.
So … do you believe any of this stuff? Or is it all just more tabloid fodder?

Marketing Toolkit: Social Media Metrics
As publishers lament their traditional media audiences' transition to online advertising, B2B marketing pros need to focus on making wise choices across outlets and channels with the best marketing data that they can acquire. In the realm of social media, B2B marketing should be held to the same ROI standards as their B2C counterparts. Unfortunately, neither have a clearly defined set of social media metrics.
The Big Picture: Improve ALL Your Marketing Metrics
As your marketing audience transitions from offline to online marketing, larger brands have stepped back and redefined their traditional media channels into three categories:
- Paid media – any media for which you target and buy impressions among an audience. This includes print, broadcast and pay-per-click advertising
- Owned media – your branded website, social platforms and content
- Earned media – the unpaid 'sharing' of your branded content within social channels.
The key take-aways here are:
- You marketing budget should invest in all three categories, and
- Your social channel initiatives should transition from building a following to enabling engagement via social sharing.
Ramsey McGrory, CEO of AddThis, stated in Advertising Age:
Brands need to use data to create consistent experiences and engage consumers anywhere on the web – on their domains, on social platforms and within ads.
If your enthusiasm for advertising in traditional media has waned in recent years, it's because your target audiences are no longer collecting information offline.
How Do you Measure the Impact of Social Media?
If traditional media advertising seeks changes in consumer behavior (to build awareness, interest, then trial), social media marketing can result in or more of several possible outcomes:
- Post Impressions: viewing a post.
- Page Impressions: viewing an owner's social platform.
- Personal Actions: consuming content such as photos, videos or links.
- Public Actions: sharing content with their network.
These outcomes are ranked from good (viewing a post) to great (sharing content). Each of these has a monetary value that should be considered when calculating your B2B marketing social media ROI. Forbes Magazine recently published an outstanding case study of Tourism Ireland's effort to calculate return on investment versus traditional media spending.
Social Media Data is Difficult to Compile Manually
It is simple to track social media referrals to your website and whether these are resulting in conversions. B2B marketing pros are already using the advanced features of Google Analytics to map their social graph as earned media efforts bring prospects closer to the bottom of the sales funnel. SocialMediaExaminer covers this topic at length in a post here.
Social media activity at the top of the sales funnel is much harder to track, but it may hold the greatest value. B2B marketing pros have a broad array of tools to choose from that help automate the collection of data for this important effort, but below are video introductions to two services (I prefer AddThis) that can assist you.
The value of a "share" will be counter-intuitive to some traditional marketing thinkers since the 'sharer' him/herself may not be a qualified lead. If we use conversion logic, the 'sharer' is providing only additional reach for your content. His/her follower audience may (or may not) include individuals that are part of your audience target, BUT the 'share' activity is important on two levels:
- The 'share' drives additional traffic to your website or social platform that may:
- Include qualified prospects for your business, and/or
- Be referring other authoritative 'sharers' to review your content and forward to their followers.
- The share is a 'social signal' to search engines that your content is relevant for particular topics. Don't underestimate (or undervalue) the importance of these actions, which are becoming increasingly important to search engine marketing.
Assigning Monetary Value to Social Media Activity
Anyone working on a Ph.D. in Marketing could write a dissertation on this topic (and likely has). Just for the benefit for search engine marketing, we know that the value of an interaction is greater than $0, but the best approach is to begin with some values that make sense based on rates that you pay for similar actions for each target audience.
- Reach: $1/M (example: $0.001 for each Twitter impression earned)
- Post Impressions: $10/M (example: $0.01 for each Facebook post impression)
- Page Impressions: $100/M (example: LinkedIn company profile view)
- Personal Actions: $1 each (or your average PPC cost for clicks to your branded content from a social source)
- Public Actions: $10 each (sharing a link to your blog post)
The exceptions based on individuals will skew these numbers greatly. A press release that is picked-up by print media as a result of the effort in social media can drive the value of a click (personal action) through the roof based on its advertising value (in square inches), so, as always, we need exceptions upon which to base our rules.
Marketers need to stop taking it on the chin when the ROI discussion begins and are asked to work instead on "value-add activities." Present your estimates and remember that social media marketing is "non-linear" in nature. The upside opportunity of B2B marketing success is much greater than in traditional media.

Black Pearl Oro
Sku: 15038
ORO: Saturated medium ruby, aromas of dark berries, chocolate and eucalyptus. Juicy cranberry and pomegranate flavors as well as licorice and herbs show depth. Ultra smooth, lingering finish.
Yields per hectare: 3.5 tonnes
Cases produced: 2200 x 12
Appellation: PAARL
Varietals: 56% Shiraz & 44% Cabernat Sauvignon
Wood treatment: 100% barrel matured for 12 months in 2nd & 3rd fill French oak.
Rated best non Bordeaux blend by Wine of the Month
Viticultural Notes
Black Pearl Vineyards is a single unirrigated vineyard on the slopes of Paarl Mountain. The 4.5 hectares of Shiraz (planted 1998) and 3 hectares of Cabernet Sauvignon (planted 1999) thrive on deep, well-drained Oakleaf soil. The high trellising system, severe pruning and canopy management are all managed to ensure low-yielding, stress free, phenolically ripe fruit. The adjoining land, we have made into a nature conservation area to preserve the last 4% of remaining renosterveld in the world, so being environmentally friendly is of utmost importance for us. Pest control is monitored rather than spraying chemicals, and our spray program for mildews uses chemicals with the least negative impact on the earth.
Wine Makers Notes
Phenolically ripe grapes are handpicked, cooled before a gentle crushing, open fermented in 600kg lots, hand punched down three times daily, and put into the barrel at 5 degrees Balling to finish fermentation in barrel. The wine is racked three times before bottling a year later and is further aged in bottle for at least a year before release. We feel we have a special site and our goal is to bottle what comes from the vineyard. We add only yeast and minimal sulfur to the wine and take nothing out. Our goal is a limited edition, terroir driven wine that is drinkable now as well as able to mature further in the bottle.
Chemical Analysis
Alcohol: 14.5%, pH: 3.7, Total Acid: 6.0, Residual Sugar: 6.0, Total SO2: 48, Free SO2: 15.

Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
A consortium of more than 30 European companies and universities will work to develop new antibiotics against gram-negative pathogens, through a six-year program to be funded with €85 million ($115.3 million) from the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI).
The program, called European Gram Negative Antibacterial Engine (ENABLE), will bring together 32 partners in 13 countries, led by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Sweden's Uppsala University. The partners will team up to establish a significant antibacterial drug discovery platform for the progression of research programs through discovery and Phase I clinical trials.
Through open calls outside the consortium, ENABLE aims to expand a preliminary portfolio of programs into a full development pipeline. ENABLE's ultimate goal is to deliver at least one new antibacterial candidate against gram-negative infections into Phase I clinical trials by 2019.
ENABLE is part of the IMI's New Drugs for Bad Bugs (ND4BB), a series of projects designed to surmount hurdles in the development and effective use of novel antibiotics. The IMI is a partnership of the European Commission and major pharmaceutical companies, acting through their industry group European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA).
ENABLE is Europe's response to the growing challenge of increasing resistance to present-day antibiotics by "superbugs," a development that has united industry and public health groups on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2012, the United States enacted the wide-ranging FDA Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA) with incentives designed to stoke commercial development of new antibiotics—most notably the qualified infectious disease product (QIDP) designation for antibiotic drug candidates, which entitles their developers to faster FDA reviews and five additional years of market exclusivity.
One of ENABLE's partners, Spain's Fundación MEDINA, will contribute to the consortium one of the new antibiotic molecules to be developed. "Our participation in this program represents a fantastic opportunity to jointly develop one of our most advanced compounds in our pipeline," Olga Genilloud, MEDINA's scientific director, said in a statement.
MEDINA works to discover new molecules from its proprietary natural product libraries that have the potential to be developed into new treatments for infectious diseases and other unmet medical needs.
MEDINA is an independent nonprofit R&D organization established jointly by the Spanish autonomous regional government of Andalucía, Spain's University of Granada, and MSD—the name by which Merck & Co. does business outside the United States and Canada.
Infectious diseases is among areas of focus for Merck. As of January 29, according to ClinicalTrials.gov, the company is recruiting patients for two Phase III trials for its Actoxumab/bezlotoxumab (MK-3415A), a combination of therapeutic antibodies targeting two C. difficile pathogenic toxins (A and B) being evaluated for the prevention of recurrence of C. difficile infection. Merck is developing Actoxumab/bezlotoxumab under an exclusive license with Massachusetts Biological Laboratories and Medarex, a subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb.

The global credit market turmoil that has increased New Zealand fixed mortgage rates in the last month can take some of the blame for houses remaining unaffordable in February despite a fall in house prices.
The Fairfax Media Home Loan affordability report shows the average 2 year fixed mortgage rate rose almost a quarter of a percentage point to 9.56 per cent in February, which almost cancelled out the effect of a 0.7 per cent fall in the median house price to NZ$337,500.
This meant the proportion of median take home pay required to service the mortgage on a median house nudged down to 80.2 per cent in February from 80.8 per cent in January.
But this is still worse than the 74 per cent of after tax pay required in February last year and the 43.3 per cent required five years ago. Most bankers believe anything more than 40 per cent of after tax pay is unaffordable.
Affordability improved sharply in Northland because of a larger than average slump in house prices. Home loan affordability improved marginally in Auckland, Hawkes Bay, Gisborne, Manawatu, Wanganui, Otago and Southland because of falling house prices.
Affordability worsened in Waikato, Wellington and Christchurch as prices either continued to rise or were flat, adding to the impact of higher mortgage rates.
The proportion of median take home pay needed to service the mortgage on a median priced home in the Central Otago and Queenstown region bounced back to 132.8 per cent of an after tax median income, just below its record high in October last year of 137.9 per cent. It remains the only region where more than 100 per cent of take home pay is required to service the mortgage on a median house. No region is below the 40 per cent affordability threshold.
The least unaffordable region in New Zealand remains Southland, which saw the portion of after tax median income needed to service the mortgage on a median house falling to 52.7 per cent from 59 per cent in January. This was largely because of a sharp fall in house prices, although it remains above the 40 per cent threshold seen as affordable for anyone on a single median income.

BELOIT - The West Branch High School theater class along with students from the middle school will stage "Hairspray Jr." at 7:30 p.m. today, 3 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday; and 3 p.m. Sunday.
Students in the theater class at the high school are completely in control of the production - their class project for the spring semester. "This has been one of the most educational experiences of the year and after producing four musicals this year the class is now running the middle school production which teaches them the behind the scenes work that actually goes into putting on a show," said class instructor John Zamarelli.
Some students in the class are in the cast of "Hairspray Jr." Some are working on the set.?Others are designing the lighting and sound, and, still others are directing the younger middle school actors, singers, and dancers.
"Hairspray Jr." is based on the film and hit stage musical, winner of eight Tony Awards, that has been adapted for young performers as part of the MTI Broadway Junior Collection. With a host of parts for a wide cross-section of students and an abundance of energetic production numbers including "You Can't Stop the Beat," "Without Love," and "Welcome to the Sixties," "Hairspray Jr." is a show that celebrates diversity and brings audiences to their feet with its positive message and uproarious sense of humor.
The story begins in Baltimore and the year is 1962. Spunky plus-size teen Tracy Turnblad has one big dream: to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. When she finally gets her shot, she is transformed from social outcast to sudden star. In balancing her newfound power with her desire for justice, Tracy fights to dethrone the reigning Miss Teen Hairspray, Amber Von Tussle, and integrate a TV network in the process. With the help of her outsized mom, Edna, and guest DJ Motormouth Maybelle, the rhythm of Tracy's new beat just might prove unstoppable.
Eighth grader Peyton Zamarelli will play Tracy Turnblad who is the main focus of the story. She is the daughter of John and Jennifer Zamarelli. Peyton has studied voice for three years and has participated in musicals since she was a little girl. On stage as Tracy, she displays her avid ability to play a character part, especially when she performs the popular tunes "Good Morning Baltimore" and "Mama I'm a Big Girl Now."
Rounding out the cast of principals is eighth grader Cole Bates who portrays Link Larkin, Tracy's "Elvis -Like" love interest. Cole is the son of Brian and Angie Bates and participates in various sports while also taking part in the middle school choir.
Veteran actor and singer Destanee Goosby, a sophomore, will portray Motormouth Maybelle. Destanee is the daughter of Melissa Kirksey and has been seen on stage many times since her freshman year. She was recently seen on the West Branch Stage as the Kala in Tarzan. In "Hairspray," Destanee delivers an emotional performance that sets up the whole plot of the story, which centers around being treated poorly for being different or in this case, being black.
Eighth grader Jonathon Brand, last seen in "Mulan" and "Willy Wonka," portrays the part of Corny Collins in "Hairspray." He is the son of Jim and Melissa Brand. Jonathan is very believable in his character and makes the audience love him especially during the song "Nicest Kid in Town."
Sophomore Alex St. Clair, son of Ed St.Clair and Shannon Lowry, will be seen in the show as Edna Turnblad, Tracy's overweight, but very lovable, mother. Alex was last seen as the Uncle Henry in the Wizard of Oz.
Tracy's best friend, Penny Pingleton, is played by eighth grader, Skylar Dredge. Skylar is the daughter of Shane and Jessica Dredge. She was last seen as Mushu in last spring's production of "Mulan."
Sixth grader and newcomer to the stage, Carleigh Loudon, portrays the part of Velma Vontussel, the prejudice owner of the "Corny Collins Show." Carleigh, the daughter of Melissa and Scott Loudon, does an exceptional job with this character.
Junior, Jake McIlvain, son of Terri and Greg McIlvain, will be playing the fun loving character of Seaweed, the young black boy who befriends Tracy and welcomes her into his world.
Seventh grader Tessa Wells portrays the character Amber Von Tussel, Tracy's arch enemy.

The Post Office has launched a new issue of its Inflation Linked Bond, available for a three or five year term.
This third issue of the Inflation Linked Bond will be available until 20 January 2012, although if oversubscribed it will be withdrawn earlier.
The three year bond offers annual RPI inflation rate plus 0.25% gross/0.24% AER* fixed each year, paid at maturity.
The five year bond offers annual RPI inflation rate plus 1% gross/0.98% AER* fixed each year, paid at maturity.
Post Office Director of Savings and Investments, Richard Norman, said: "Since we launched the first Inflation Linked Bond earlier this year, inflation has remained high, leaving savers worried about the value of their hard earned cash.
"This new issue of the Inflation Linked Bond offers them another chance to get peace of mind that their savings will be protected against the eroding effects of inflation."
The savings account bond can be opened with a minimum deposit of £500, the maximum in £1 million. The interest is calculated annually and paid at maturity with no access to the account until the end of the term. That said, early closure of the account is permitted in exceptional circumstances, subject to a charge which means customers could get back less than their original investment.
The rate of return is based on the annual Retail Price Index as measured in January each year, plus a guaranteed fixed return of 1% or 0.25% gross per year. If RPI is negative in any year, the annual return for that year will be the fixed rate – 1% gross for the five year term or 0.25% gross for the three year term.
MoneyHighStreet comments: "Previous Issues of this Inflation Linked bond have proved popular and no doubt so too will this third issue with those savers able to lock their money away in a savings account for a period of time.
"On the face of it an inflation linked savings account does seem attractive but savers do need to consider their options carefully. Whilst inflation is currently rising, how long will it continue?
"Also have you used your Cash ISA allowance? – if not this maybe an option for you to consider. There are for example inflation linked ISAs available.
"Whatever you opt for, ensure you keep an eye on the interest being paid – it's all too easy to almost forget your savings accounts thinking they are continuing to earn a good rate of return when in fact initial bonus payments may have been paid and your account may be languishing on a poor interest rate."

Prokofiev Shines in Louisville orchestra broadcast
Jorge Mester conducts and Robert Thies is the pianist in our next broadcast of the Louisville Orchestra on Classical 90.5, Thursday at 8 pm. Thies, who will perform Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3, is the first American pianist to win a Russian piano competition since Van Cliburn's famed triumph in Moscow in 1958. Jorge Mester hails Robert "a genius."
Peter Illych Tchaikovsky's emotional Symphony No. 6 is also on the program. Mester conducts the work on the heels of his last appearance which included Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 6. The maestro says the latter work was influenced by Tchaikovsky's masterpiece.
Hector Berlioz's Roman Carnival Overture begins the broadcast. Read Daniel Gilliam's review of this Louisville Orchestra performance here.

Review: Louisville Orchestra Highlights Russian Masterworks
Review: Louisville Orchestra Highlights Russian Masterworks
Thursday morning, on the eve of his 80th birthday, Jorge Mester conducted his penultimate concert of the 2014-2015 Louisville Orchestra season with two major Russian works.
To open the concert, the orchestra played Berlioz's Roman Carnival with vigor and excitement, with some beautiful moments from the violas, and a tender English horn solo from Trevor Johnson. Ultimately, against the Prokofiev concerto and the Tchaikovsky symphony, the overture felt more like a necessary formality in the orchestra-concert formula than a genuine statement.
The third piano concerto of Sergei Prokofiev balances witty humor and profound rhetoric, and Prokofiev establishes this M.O. in the initial five minutes of the concerto. Pianist Robert Thies and the orchestra play equal roles, moving gracefully through sometimes quirky, sometimes elegant tunes. There is always something interesting to hear because Prokofiev is always saying something interesting. Even in the transitions — when the music is leading us to an important moment — we find curiosities and gems.
Thies brought an unassuming stage presence to Whitney Hall; lacking all the glitz, body and facial contortions common in soloists. Instead, he allowed Prokofiev's music to exude personality and affectation. His enthusiasm for this third concerto was belied only by the tiniest grin during his first bow.
Soloist and orchestra were effortless and fluid, with a sparkling urgency throughout. But it was the middle movement, a set of theme and variations, that felt surreal. Here is a composer who is improvising, inviting the orchestra to interject and punctuate, and Thies' ability to be unobtrusive allowed Prokofiev to be present, as though he had opened a portal to the moment of creation.
Pytor Ilyich Tchaikovsky's final Symphony No. 6, "Pathétique," premiered just nine days before his death, is the masterpiece we hope to hear again and again. Mester and orchestra, returning to a work they've performed many times, didn't let their comfort with the notes impair a clear understanding and delivery of the music. Even at its most brooding, Mester didn't hesitate to move the music forward. The strings were rich and resonant, and woodwind principals Marilyn Nije and Matthew Karr each gave poetic solos in the first movement.
The second movement, a sort of peg-leg waltz, was charming. Only in the final minutes did the waltz unhinge slightly. The stately third movement was peppy and cheerful, slightly reminiscent of The Nutcracker (a score the LO becomes intimately familiar with each holiday season). The fatalistic last movement, more tenebrous than the first, points to the inevitable and leaves us with questions without answers. Regardless of the Pathétique's actual meaning or message, Tchaikovsky's final symphony continues to speak profoundly and personally, and fresh performances like Thursday morning's allow for that introspection.
As evidenced in this concert, and recent performances of Brahms and Elgar, this is a romantic orchestra, with a penchant for emotionally robust works. Ideally, an orchestra can play any period (baroque, classical, contemporary, etc) with equal authority, but the true colors of this band are showing.
The Louisville Orchestra presents this concert again on Friday evening at 8pm in Whitney Hall.

Inspiration from Shakespeare
Tchaikovsky was a Shakespeare fan. If you don't believe it, just consider the number of his works inspired by the Bard: Romeo and Juliet Overture-Fantasia, Hamlet Overture-Fantasia, Incidental music to Hamlet, and The TempestFantasia.
Shakespeare has always inspired composers, including Mendelssohn, Berlioz, Britten and Thomas Adès.
Tchaikovsky's The Tempest was suggested by Vladimir Stassov. He gave Tchaikovsky an outline of the play, that served as the musical narrative. Tchaikovsky's music evokes a stormy sea, the love between Miranda and Ferdinand, and the magic of Ariel.
Watch Gustavo Dudamel talk about his recording project featuring the Shakespearean works of Tchaikovsky, and don't miss Kentucky Shakespeare's performances this summer!

Classical Composers Steal the Show at Sochi
Every two years the international community is treated to the extravaganza of national pride that is the opening ceremonies for the Olympic Games. The Russian ceremonies last Friday in Sochi especially focused on the history of the host nation, told through the dreams of a small girl (who was sometimes rather alarmingly suspended from the ceiling by wires). Russian literature and dance played a large part in the story, but it was the music that truly drove the program forward. With Russia's rich musical traditions, there was no shortage of material to pull from, and the selection process must have been overwhelmingly difficult.
Music which did make the cut includes such quintessentially Russian pieces as the Polovtsian Dances from Borodin's Prince Igor and Stravinsky's ballets The Firebird and Rite of Spring. This year, the traditional Olympic symbol of doves was portrayed by bizarrely but beautifully lit dancers twirling to the music of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.
Difficult as the musical selection for the artistic portion of the evening must have been, the choice of singers must have been a piece of cake. Soprano Anna Netrebko, perhaps the most internationally recognizable Russian singer, performed the Olympic Hymn to round out the musical evening.
The renowned conductor Valery Gergiev also made an appearance at the opening ceremonies as one of several prominent Russian citizens bearing the Olympic flag.
In the spirit of the season, here are two other great pieces by Russian composers that didn't quite make the cut for the opening ceremonies.
Here's part of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition led by Valery Gergiev:
And something from Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade:

The view from the D gates isn't exactly breathtaking, but at 2:21 p.m. I am very close to squandering what is left of my Oregonian expense money at the slot machines that keep screaming out, "Wheel .... of .... Fortune!'' because I have no shot - absolutely none - of getting on a 4:30 flight to Portland as a stand-by passenger and I might as well be dead broke when I arrive at oh-dark-thirty at SeaTac.
The morning after that horrific performance by the team I cover in the MAACO Bowl, I am still tasting the wind-blown dust and grime and hot dog wrappers and confetti and whatever else was flying around Sam Boyd Stadium along with Johnny Hekker's infamous punts - one of which was a running joke all day on ESPN.
I like the comments of ESPN's Ed Cunningham, that people should keep these bowl games in perspective and not start to think that the Mountain West Conference should suddenly get an automatic spot in the BCS title game. ... the general thinking at ESPN was that losing out on the Rose Bowl on the last game of the season FOR THE SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR took more out of Lunchpail U. than anyone thought.
I know it would be a classier move to rave about how good BYU is, and speak of Max Hall in the same terms as Drew Brees (another pint-sized flinger), but one of my lasting impressions of that MAACO mess - besides the 55 mph wind gusts and the fact O. photographer Ross Hamilton made me lug his 350-pound telephoto lens around in the post game - was how chippy it got at the end and I don't think all of that was OSU's doing.
Yeah, it's almost Christmas and in the holiday spirit I should say that BYU was the superior team from top to bottom, but from where I sit - directly across from a Cinnabon and a lady in a wheelchair that looks like she just lost her life savings - I'm not ready to declare the Cougars as all that. .. the team I cover didn't show up. I scarcely recognized them last night. So I'm going to file that MAACO Mess away - amnesia, baby - and put an asterisk beside BYU's victory because it was wind-aided.

C) 10/6/2003: http://weather.gov/com/nwsfocus/fs100603.htm:
In the section under "NWS Begins IFPS Era; ..." They mention that the
public comment period on NDFD will be extended through "Dec. 1, 2003". Just
thought I would remind you.
----------- News about this release:
I have just finished putting together version "1.30" (last one that I
announced was "1.27" on 9/9/2003).
This release is mainly focused on:
1) The Big Polygon,
2) Doing coverage grids using Nearest point Interpolation,
3) "-P -cells all" option,
4) Being able to handle operational / experimental URLs.
1) The Big Polygon: I had been generating shape files that were either
point or polygon. The polygons were "small" in that they were the size of a
grid cell. Several people have asked if I could merge polygons that have
the same value, together to create big polygons. This would create smaller
shape files making them easier to work with (particularly in ArcExplorer),
while preserving the information. The small polygons will still be useful
for merging shape files together, but for simple viewing, the big polygons
are much faster. I'm not sure which is preferable from the ArcIMS
perspective. (option is "-C -Shp -poly big" versus "-C -Shp -poly small")
2) Some people have commented that they like the coverage grid option
(-Interp), but found that for discrete variables (weather), they couldn't
use it because it always performed "bi-linear" interpolation, which resulted
in "in-between" values. I have now introduced "-Interp near" and "-Interp
bilinear". As I said, the "near" option should work regardless of the type
of variable, while the "bilinear" option is limited to continuous variables.
3) Some people have asked for a ways to map grid cells to lat/lon so they
can just read the .flt files, and not have to concern themselves with map
projections or ESRI file formats. I have now implemented a "-P -cells all"
option, which should probe all the cells in the GRIB2 file in a similar way
to "-P -pnt <lat>,<lon> -pntStyle 1" method, except at all the cells. For
locations it outputs: <cell x>,<cell y>,<lat>,<lon>.
4) Variables are now considered "Experimental", "Operational", and "Not
Available" (instead of "Available" or "Not Available"). In the ndfd.ini
configuration file, there are now two URL location variables (OperDir and
ExprDir) and two FTP location variables (OperDir and ExprDir). If looks for
"Operational" variables in the OperDir locations, and "Experimental"
variables in the ExprDir locations. That should allow it to handle the
eventual "Operational" status of NDFD variables.
5) James Scott has kindly provided a makefile that works in Mac OS X. The
program now works on : MS-Windows, HP, Linux, IBM-Aix, Mac OS X, and someone
had it working on a Sun. Anyone try it on a palm pilot yet? :-)
As always, I tested this release on my PC (XP), a Linux machine, a HP-Unix
machine, and an AIX-Unix (machine). Although I may have missed something in
my testing, it should at least compile, and run for some of the test cases.
For those of you with access to the NWS NCEP machine, my current version is
in: /nfsuser/g06/we25at/degrib (on snow/frost). For those with access to
MDL's GDP or NHDW machines, see: /home/taylor/ (./degrib/bin/degrib.lin for
linux or ./degrib/bin/degrib.hp for Hp's)
Please let me know if you have problems.

WARREN - The Warren Redevelopment and Planning board voted to reduce its size from 25 to nine trustees. Among positions eliminated were the mayor, city community development director and the city council representative.
Trustees will serve three-year terms and will serve on a staggered-term basis.
"We are making common-sense changes to operate WRAP in a common-sense manner," said Kim Phillips, chairman of WRAP's board of trustees.
Other board seats eliminated are the chair of the Reinvestment Partnership Corp. and representatives of the Trumbull County commissioners, Youngstown Warren Regional Chamber, the Fine Arts Council and the Warren City Schools.
However, those in those positions may be invited to participate on particular projects or to volunteer to serve on the board.
The decision to reduce the board's size is to streamline its operation and make it more effective, according to Phillips. It originally was set at 25 members to qualify to be a Small Business Agency loan agency. However, WRAP has not managed this type of loan since the early-to-mid-1990s.
"We felt that Mahoning Valley Economic Development Corp. is more effective in handling these loans," Michael Keys, the city's Community Development director, said.
Phillips said WRAP's executive committee meets on a quarterly basis.
"The full board has not met for several years," Phillips said. "I do not know why."
Jack Foley, former director of the city's Community Development department, recommended that Warren's mayor and a council member remain as trustees on the board, since WRAP still receives funding from the city.
However, member Don Emerson argued that these positions may be invited to participate on a committee at the chairman's discretion on particular projects.
"We want to have that flexibility in making sure we are getting lots of expertise," Emerson said. "We still have the ability to receive the input from the mayor."
Phillips said the new nine-member board will be selected at the board's October meeting. Those with interests in serving on the board should contact WRAP at its office, 418 Main St. S.W., Phillips said.

Christie Urges Income-Tax Cut, Democrats Eye Property Levies
Governor Chris Christie told a group of business leaders that Democrats in the Legislature may jeopardize New Jersey's economic recovery by putting social issues ahead of job creation and tax cuts.
Debating same-sex marriage and other concerns may hinder progress on improving New Jersey's economy, the first-term Republican said last night in a 25-minute speech to the state Chamber of Commerce during its annual trip to Washington.
Making gay marriage legal in New Jersey dominated legislative debate in Trenton in the past week. While Christie proposed a ballot question on the issue, and said he would abide by the results if it went to voters in November, he threatened to veto Democrats' bill to permit the practice.
"They want to play around with social issues to try and make people look bad," said Christie, 49. "Here's what the public is going to care about: Are they working? Are they working in a job that pays well and provides their family with health insurance?"
Christie's remarks echoed his Jan. 17 State of the State speech to the Legislature and a subsequent series of public meetings in which he pressed his case for hastening what he calls "the Jersey comeback" by cutting taxes. The Washington-based Tax Foundation this week ranked New Jersey last among U.S. states in terms of business climate.
Counterproposal Reported
Assembly Majority Leader Louis Greenwald, a Cherry Hill Democrat, said his party is weighing "a couple of ideas" to lower pressure from New Jersey's highest-in-the-nation property taxes. He declined to give specifics after Christie's speech, while saying any relief would be both immediate and long-term.
"These were very defensive comments by the governor," he said in an interview. "He's talking about philosophical debates because quite honestly his eye is on a different prize than just governing New Jersey."
New Jersey's homeowners paid an average property-tax bill of $7,576 in 2010, according to the most recent information released by the state Community Affairs Department.
Greenwald and Democrats have said property taxes are the most serious tax-related issue for the middle class. He said Christie is "dead wrong" to say people don't care about same-sex marriage. Democrats control both legislative chambers.
Spurring Economy
Christie took office in 2010 pledging to cut taxes as the state's economic conditions improved. He said his proposed reduction would spur the state's economy, which he added should be the top issue in Trenton.
"Do they care about the stuff we've been talking about for the past week?" Christie said, referring to state residents. "What they care about is whether their husband or wife will have a job, will they have money to put food on the table?"
New Jersey's unemployment rate fell to 9 percent in December, the lowest since May 2009, according to the state Labor Department. It is above the national rate of 8.5 percent, and double the state level of December 2007.
The governor has declined to say how he'd make up for the revenue if taxes are cut. Democrats have said a 10 percent rollback may mean as much as a $1.1 billion decline in state receipts.
"People care about civil rights, and they also care about the middle-class property tax relief and job creation plans this governor vetoed as he zealously protects and advocates for tax cuts for the rich," Tom Hester, a spokesman for Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver, said last night. "His priorities are so out of step with working class New Jersey."
Oliver, a Democrat from East Orange, has said that an analysis by her office showed a family with a $50,000 annual income would pay $80 less in taxes under Christie's plan, while someone earning $1 million would save $7,200.

Irish-America: the last frontier for Irish multi-culturalism
John Grenham
Irish-America is the softest of soft targets, especially at this time of the year. Dress up a straw man in a green waistcoat and red beard, stick a dudeen in his mouth and a pair of buckled brogues on his feet, and let the jeering begin. Irish-America can, of course, be its own worst enemy. I still sometimes wake in a cold sweat at the memory of the Mother Mackree Irish Strudel House in Milwaukee. But a few simple considerations should give the choir of begrudgers pause.
First, in America "Irish" partakes of none of the European enmeshing of race with nation with state that has sparked a thousand wars. Instead, it is just one of the range of available add-on ethnicities: the word simply means something different in North America. A transatlantic "false friend" is the reason for the intense discomfort most Irish (nationality) people feel when Chuck Kowalski corners them in a bar in Peoria to tell them he's Irish (add-on) too.
But "Irish" still remains the most peculiar and intense of American ethnicities. In the 2000 US census there were 43 million German-Americans, making them the largest ethnic group. But the population of Germany is 82 million; there are 15 million Italian-Americans, and 61 million Italians; 12 million Mexican-Americans, 114 million Mexicans. Contrast that with Ireland: 41 million Irish-Americans, but only 6 million Irish. That disproportion is extraordinary and it can be frightening for some Irish (nationality). Hence the Leprechaun-bashing.
One of the best things to come out of the Troubles was a realization that "Irish" had to be stretched, first to include the British-Irish of Northern Ireland, then to cover both the diaspora and the "New Irish": Turlough and Wojciech and Donald. St. Patrick's Day reminds us there is still some stretching left to do. Add Chuck.

Student Housing: Clark Atlanta housing vacancies threaten bonds
By Russell Grantham for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A student housing project at Clark Atlanta University has run into financial trouble that could push nearly $52 million of the Atlanta Development Authority's bonds into default, recent bond filings indicate.
A nonprofit company that was created by the Atlanta Development Authority to funnel money to the student housing project "has experienced significant operating deficits" as a result of vacancies and "might not be able to continue as a going concern," Atlanta accounting firm Reznick Group warned bond investors in a recent filing.
The Atlanta Development Authority issued $51.9 million worth of bonds on behalf of the university in 2004 to refinance an earlier $20.7 million bond issue and to expand the student housing facility by 598 beds, according to bond documents.
The so-called revenue bonds were structured so that they will be repaid over the next 25 years from rental revenue from the student housing project. Beyond that, the development authority isn't on the hook for the debt.
Clark Atlanta University has struggled financially in recent years, and it cut staff in 2009 after seeing a drop in enrollment.
A spokeswoman for the university had no immediate response or details about the bonds or the project's financial condition.
In a Nov. 30 report, the auditor said the development authority's nonprofit company, ADA/CAU Partners, had to use money from reserves to meet a July payment to bondholders after the student housing unit lost money in its last fiscal year due to rising vacancies.
"Management has recently increased marketing efforts to improve occupancy" and hired a new management company in an attempt to turn around the housing project, which usually loses rent for an "entire year" if a room isn't leased at the beginning of the school year, the auditor said.
Lost revenue from "vacancies and concessions" more than doubled in 2010 to $1.9 million, pushing revenue down to $5.1 million from $6.3 million the previous year, according to the report.

Union City seniors advance with late coach on mind
SHARON -- Talk with any Union City wrestler this season and the conversation inevitably comes back to the late Ed Margie.
Bears heavyweight Jeff Burger was no different when he spoke after his quarterfinal match at Friday's District 10 Class AA tournament.
"It feels great, but this is all about coach Margie," he said after pinning Sharpsville's Kaleb Robertson. "I've been saying that all season."
Margie, who coached Union City's wrestling program to 397 dual victories, died Aug. 31 at the age of 60. He was with the team for its previous 37 PIAA postseasons.
Burger, now coached by Jeff Hiner, is one of six tournament qualifiers who arrived at Sharon High School with only one loss on his record. The senior kept it that way when he flattened Robertson in 1 minute, 21 seconds.
Burger takes a 23-1 mark into today's championship semifinals against Lakeview junior Sam Breese (28-3). Like Breese, Burger received a first-round bye as a section champion.
Unlike Breese, Burger is the district's defending champ. He's very conscious of that fact.
"It's really different," Burger said of his status, "but I'm working even harder because I want another district title."
Another Union City senior also remained once-beaten in a meet that started with no unbeaten wrestlers.
The Bears' Tim Vargo improved to 18-1 with a 3:01 pin of Reynolds' Austin Moffett in their 170 championship quarterfinal. Vargo will take on Marquis Spence (23-10) of Lakeview in the semifinals.
Saegertown's Devin Brown (106), Reynolds' Austin Matthews (152) and Cochranton's Cam Cyphert (220) round out the meet's one-loss participants who remained that way after the quarterfinals.
No longer on that list is Jordan Bryan. The North East junior went into his 160 match against Cochranton's Ryan Northcott at 28-1, but was forced to default in the second period because of a right shoulder injury.
It was unknown if Bryan, who already had that shoulder wrapped, will heal enough in time to face Franklin's Derek Steetle in their scheduled consolation match.
Matt Wheeler, a two-loss wrestler with Northwestern, received a first-round bye as the Section 3-AA victor. The senior (28-2) set up a 120 championship semifinal against Fort LeBoeuf's Tyler Kuzma, thanks to a 3-1 decision over Seneca's Cyle Yaple.
"I haven't wrestled him, but he's tough," Wheeler said of the Bison's junior. "I know it will be a good match (today)."
There were no notable upsets after Friday's action, with Seneca freshman Chris Hibbler (138) one of the few wrestlers who advanced to the championship semifinals out of the first round. Hibbler (25-9) recorded a 5-2 decision over Chris Enos of Sharpsville and then dominated Girard's Gage Dalton 14-3.
"The first match, I didn't think I wrestled as well as I could," Hibbler said. "I was really glad I did as well as I did in the second match. I know I can wrestle even better."
Hibbler joined Brad Nowakowski (106) and Adam Fish (132) as Seneca freshmen who had qualified for the meet. Fish, a Section 1-AA winner, is in the final four of his weight class after he edged Girard standout Trevor McCray 5-3.
Reynolds led the team standings with 751/2 points when action was halted. Leboeuf was second with 52 and Saegertown third with 45.
The Bison placed five in the championship semifinals, highlighted by Evan Daley. The 2011 district champion received a bye at 220, and then blanked Jamestown's Keamus Schulen to boost his record to 32-3.
The consolation first round resumes at 132 pounds when today's competition starts at 8:45 a.m. The consolation finals are scheduled for 3 p.m., and the title matches at 4:30.
The top six wrestlers in each division will return to Sharon for next weekend's Northwest Region meet.

Gents surge past Northwest
PRAIRIE RHONDE – Heading into Tuesday's District 4-AAA showdown at Northwest, Crowley High coach Derrick Boone just wanted to keep the game close heading into the fourth quarter.
His Gents executed his game plan to perfection by taking a slim 35-34 advantage into the final stanza.
Then came the pressure.
Boone unleashed the dogs in the final eight minutes, going to a full-court pressure defense that resulted in eight Northwest turnovers and led to a 48-36 victory for the Gents.
Crowley improved to 18-7 on the season and 7-0 in league play with the victory.
"We knew if we could keep it close, we would be alright," said Boone, whose squad limited Northwest to just two points in the fourth quarter. " The fourth quarter is the quarter that determines most games, especially when you are evenly matched like we are.
"In our big games, we have been able to limit our opponents in the fourth quarter and that's what champions do. If we can continue to do that, the sky's the limit for these guys."
Northwest hit a shot just seconds into the fourth quarter to take a 36-35 advantage but Crowley's Tuskani Figaro answered with a 3-pointer at the 6:19 mark to give Crowley the lead for good.
From there, it was all defense for the Gents, who logged four steals and frustrated the Raiders over the final six minutes.
"We knew from the beginning that Northwest had trouble handling pressure," said Boone. "But you never know how the officiating is going to go and I didn't want to put my guys in a bind from start to finish so I had to pick and choose the points where we were going to press.
"Towards the end, we had them on the ropes and I knew that's when we had to pressure them."
Damon Malbrough added six points down the stretch, all in transition, while Jerrell Andrus hit a runner in the lane and Davante Bourque and Danny Malbrough each hit one free throw.
Andrus paced the Gents with 16 points and Damon Malbrough followed with 14. Figaro added eight points; Davante Bourque scored five; Danny Malbrough had three and Andre Mills scored two.
"This was a real good win for us," said Boone. "To get one on the road in a game that we had to come from behind a few times was big. We made our share of mistakes but we were also able to capitalize on their mistakes.
"The hustle stayed there and we got smarter as the game went on. Even though we have a young squad, I saw the maturity of our guys. Our leaders stepped up and our bench stepped up also."
The Crowley Ladies weren't as fortunate in the opener.
The Ladies committed 36 turnovers in a 65-38 loss to Northwest.
Crowley trailed just 12-10 after the first quarter, but the Ladies managed just nine points in the following two frames and trailed 43-19 heading into the final stanza.
Northwest went on to outscore Crowley 22-19 in the final eight minutes.
Mercedes Rogers and Kara Wilridge led the Ladies with 14 and eight points, respectively. Sara Woodard followed with seven points and Beverly Broussard scored four. Vivian Barker and Bianca Anderson each pitched in two points and Arlissa Byers scored one.
The Ladies will be in action again tonight when they play host to Eunice at 6 o'clock.
The Gents return to action Friday when they entertain Iowa at 5:30 p.m. They will then travel to Church Point Tuesday before rounding out the regular season at home on Wednesday when they play host to Eunice.
