Travel Guide Central America Panama Balboa
© All Rights Reserved BalboaInn
Balboa is separated from Panama City by the Cerro Ancon (Ancon Hill), one of Panama City's skyline landmarks. Between the entrance of the Panama Canal and the City, it's the home of the Panama Canal Authority (ACP). Balboa is part of the what was called "Canal Zone" when the Americans still ran the Canal. Now the official term is 'areas revertidas' or reverted areas.
Besides many ACP administrative buildings and its landmark head office, there is a large residential area and a port. Like other residential areas built by the Americans the setup is very spacious and green as opposed to the typical Panamanian urban planning.
The ACP main administration building is worth a visit, especially when combined with a walk up Ancon Hill to enjoy the wildlife and beautiful views of the City and Panama Canal entrance.

Balboa has a tropical climate with the temperature varying between 27 °C and 33 °C. Typical to tropical climates, Balboa has two seasons, a dry one and a wet one. The dry season, considered summertime, lasts from January to March and the wet season is from April through December, with the wettest months being October and November where average rainfall is above 23cm. Typically the other wet months see an average rainfall of between 8 and 15cm with April and December falling on the low end. During the wet season there is not necessarily non stop rain for days on end, but it usually rains at least once a day.
5 Minutes north of Balboa you'll find Albrook with its airport that handles all domestic flights and the huge Albrook Mall which is also home of the 'Gran Terminal' where all buses to/from Panama city arrive and depart.
Niko's Cafe (affordable food)
In the former YMCA buiding you'll find an Internet café and some travel agents. You'll also find a hostal, Bed and Breakfast and hotel in Balboa.
Internet cafes can be found in cities and most major towns. Wifi is on the rise though with many hotels, restaurants and bars offering this services, especially in the major tourist areas like Panama City, Bocas del Toro and Boquete. Some mountainous or off the beaten track areas might not have any internet services at all.
See also International Telephone Calls
Panama's country code is 507. All cellular numbers start with the number 6 and have 8 digits. Land line phone numbers have 7 digits. 911 is the general emergency phone number.
Calls to the USA and Europe are between 4 and 10 cents a minute. The best way to make international calls from Panama is to buy prepaid telephone cards that are sold at every corner. The most popular is the TeleChip card. If you bring your cellphone, you can choose to buy a local simcard, instead of paying high charges for internet use through your home provider.
Correos y Telegrafos is the national postal company of Panama. It provides a wide range of services though you usually have to use the post offices for both sending and receiving mail and packages, including buying stamps. Post offices can be found in many cities and towns and are open from 6:30am to 5:45pm Monday to Friday and 7:00am to 5:00pm on Saturday. Domestic mail takes several days but to the USA and Europe for example it can take anywhere from 5 to over 10 days depending on the country. For sending larger packages, you might also consider using companies like FedEx, TNT, UPS or DHL, as they offer fast, reliable and competitively priced services as well.

How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost in Bergen County, NJ and Can Anyone Refer Me to a Top-rated Physician?
Mommy Makeover Costs and Doctor Recommendations - Bergen, NJ
Doctor Answers 16
Choosing your Surgeon?
There are several guidelines to follow in order to ensure that you choose one of the finest plastic surgeons in your area: • You need your plastic surgeon to be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. This certification is an indication that the surgeon has had extra training in the field of aesthetic plastic surgery. This also ensures that the plastic surgeon has earned his or her degree from a reputable medical school and has completed five years of additional residency. Avoid "board certification" by the "board of Cosmetic Surgery" and other similar organizations. • Reputable plastic surgeons should have privileges to perform cosmetic surgery procedures at an accredited hospital – not just in the surgery center in their office. • Ask your plastic surgeon to show you before-and-after photos of patients who have undergone cosmetic surgery and ask to speak with some of their patients. • Good doctors will ensure realistic expectations and take the time to address your concerns. They will encourage you to do your homework, talk to other patients, and make an informed choice. • Be skeptical of super saver deals advertised in newspapers and magazines. Most plastic surgeons charge comparable rates and rarely offer "deals." Don't compromise quality care and your safety just to save a few dollars; it may end up costing you more in the long run. An experienced plastic surgeon will be more adept at fixing or addressing any problems that may arise. • Of course, one of the most important factors in choosing a plastic surgeon is your personal comfort level with the doctor. You should feel comfortable asking questions about your cosmetic surgery procedure so that you can make an educated final decision regarding the planned procedure.
I hope this helps.

In Columbus, Ohio where I practice, the total price (surgeon's fees, anesthesia fees and facility fees) for a mommy makeover can range between $6000 and $14000
You might also like...
Mommy Makeover Cost
breast augmentation $7000-$9000 (depending on implant type and technique)
breast lift $8000-$9500 (depending on technique)
tummy tuck $6500-$9000 (depending on whether it's a mini, full or floating abdominoplasty, and if liposuction is also performed)
liposuction $2000-$8000 (depending on number of areas)
These ranges are what you'd find in Toronto, Ontario, where I am located. They may be quite different in your city. A combination of procedures may slightly reduce the costs of each, especially when two or more are performed at the same time.
For a better idea of pricing, please check out the websites of your preferred surgeon or call around in your city. Having said that however, it's always best to find a surgeon you are comfortable with and trust instead of picking one based on how much they charge.

Mommy Makeover Costs and Doctor Recommendations - Bergen, NJ
The fees will vary considerably throughout the county and based on the combination of procedures which you wish in your mommy makeover. Dr. Stephen Colen and Dr. Richard Winters are possibilities. Consult with 3 - 4 surgeons in your area to understand your options.

Some suggestions on picking a mommy makeover surgeon.
Tips on picking a Plastic Surgeon
Article by George J. Beraka, MD
Manhattan Plastic Surgeon
1) Is the surgeon a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery? Members usually do a lot of cosmetic surgery.
2) Did you sense a commitment to excellence in the office. Did the surgeon spend a lot of time with you? Someone who rushes through the consultation may rush through the surgery.
3) Were you treated as an individual? Did the surgeon present you with a surgical plan tailor made for you?
4) Plastic surgeons have to have a good eye and meticulous technique. Did the surgeon show you A LOT of before and after pictures, and did you love the results?
5) Talk to other doctors you know. Established plastic surgeons have a reputation in the community, good or bad.
6) Ask to speak to a patient who has had the procedure you want. You are looking for a surgeon who does a lot of what you want. Many patients are eager to share their experience. Privacy is preserved by having the patient call you.
7) If you are having breast augmentation, ask if the surgeon has a large inventory of different size and shape breast implants available in the operating room. A surgeon who does a lot of breast surgery will have an inventory. This way, the final implant choice does not have to be made in advance.
8) With office surgery, make sure the surgical facility is ACCREDITED. Very important safety assurance.
9) Make sure the anesthesia is given by a BOARD CERTIFIED ANESTHESIOLOGIST. Another very important safety factor.
10) Make sure the office has trained nurses available for hands-on post operative care. This can really speed recovery.
Finding a top-rated plastic surgeon
I would recommend going to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons website to find qualified local doctors. Prices vary from doctor to doctor, so interview with a few to get an idea of local prices.
Web reference: http://www.BaltimorePlasticSurgery.com
Mommy makeover cost and recommendation
Cost for mommy makeover varies on the followings: 1) combination of procedures involved (breast lift vs. breast augmentation with/without lift in combination with tummy tuck with or without liposuction), 2) surgeon's fee, 3) anesthesia fee, 4) facility fee, 5) cost of implant (saline vs. silicone). Surgeons, anesthesiologists, facility fee will depend on extent of surgery required, i.e. hours of operation. Therefore, cost of mommy makeover can vary from $13,000 to $20,000.
In terms of finding a plastic surgeon, talk to your family and friends who have gotten a procedure from the plastic surgeon. Make sure you feel comfortable with the surgeon and that she/he is board-certified by American Board of Plastic Surgery.
Best of luck to you.
Cost for a Mommy Makeover
The cost for a mommy makeover will vary depending on exactly what procedures you need done. Common procedures include a tummy tuck, breast lift or implants, and some liposuction. To figure out the cost, you need to total up the prices for each individual procedure and then there is usually a discount for combining surgeries because of anesthesia savings. For breast implants, tummy tuck, and liposuction, you are looking at around 15,000-20,000 depending on the area and the physician. Hope this helps. Maybe you will take the trip over the river....
Searching for a good surgeon.
When you are choosing a surgeon, make sure he/she is board certified and ask to see before and after photographs.

The Child Health Clinic is a general pediatric clinic at Children's Hospital Colorado that primarily serves children from uninsured or underinsured families. In 2011, the Clinic served nearly 10,000 children. Since he was born, Norvell has come to the clinic for well child visits, immunizations, hearing and vision screenings and more. His mother, Valencia, attended breastfeeding clinics because she was interested in learning about ways to give her son the healthiest start in life. Valencia likes that the entire staff is so friendly and thinks that the care her family receives is top-notch professional and compassionate, the kind that all children and their families deserve..
The consequences of oral disease and pain can hold a child back from eating, speaking, sleeping and learning in school. Marcie's Fund is a program that provides subsidized oral care and education for uninsured children. Families enrolled in the program cannoteven afford reduced fees for dental visits so they often forego visits to the dentist altogether. Nearly 400 children received dental care through Marcie's fund. Over 80% showed improvement and absence of oral disease. In addition, the program creates a culture of oral health, lessening emergency room visits due to increased access and knowledge of oral health care for low-income families.
With cuts in government programs, much-needed funding helps the Metropolitan State University of Denver's Family Literacy Program continue to provide services to children and adults from families living below the poverty level. During 2011-12, a total of 86 infants and young children from birth to five years were served by the Parents as Teachers program. By the end of 2011, at least half of those children the program serves were reading at or above their grade level.
Intercambio Uniting Communities empowers adult immigrants with English language and life skills. According to pre- and post-assessments, 45% of students received a better job, promotion or pay increase after completing the program. 56% of students volunteer in the community (an 18% increase after the program). Some 89% of students now feel that Boulder is a welcoming place to live. In 2011, Intercambio Uniting Communities enrolled 1,000 immigrant students in the English language classes and workshops and trained and supported 420 volunteer teachers.
Rebecca is 61 and lives with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes and a broken leg. Living with COPD causes a strain on the lungs that impairs the ability to stand for long periods of time to cook or shop for groceries. Rebecca received Project Angel Heart meals for a year. She said this about the meals and service, "The meal service surely has helped out. It's easy to tell the truth about Project Angel Heart: The professionalism and courtesy of the agency is outstanding. I have been treated like royalty and I am so grateful to you all." With the help of nearly 9,000 annual volunteers and the immense generosity of the community, the program delivered 293,543 nutritious meals last year.

Shelby Janssen was starting to feel the anxiety Tuesday night at Island Grove Arena.
It had nothing to do with her post-rodeo slack performance in the women's barrel racing.
It had everything to do with Wade Sundell's saddle bronc ride atop Night Latch.
You see, Janssen and Sundell are an item.
A rodeo romance. Made in Coleman, Okla., last winter.
Janssen, who was raised "out in the country," on the outskirts of Austin, Minn., has been riding horses since she was 2 years old.
At 22 and a student at Texas Tech University, she rode into Oklahoma to compete in a circuit event in December and was introduced to Sundell.
"We talked and pretty much hit it off," Janssen said. "My truck broke down and he was so nice, he lent me his truck to drive to Kentucky for a rodeo."
Four days later, the pair met back up in Coleman, Okla., Sundell had his truck back and his newest, biggest fan.
Oh, by the way — Sundell was awarded an 81 for his ride in front of 4,800 fans at Island Grove Arena. He's third after three performances and in good shape to return for Friday's finals.
That's a little short of what his girlfriend figured he'd need.
"He has a good horse, so he should be fine," Janssen explained, preparing to video Sundell's ride. "I think he'll go at least 83. We want to win."
Sundell has been winning plenty — he's ranked No. 4 ($40,135) in the world, not including the $100,000 for winning The American Rodeo at AT&T Stadium in Dallas in March with a score of 92.5.
He's no stranger to big paydays with career earnings of $990,233, finishing sixth in the world last season and already having won seven rodeos this season to go along with being co-champion in three rodeos.
"It's going pretty good, I'm hot right now," Sundell said. "My ride was pretty good. The horse wanted to get away a little bit, so I had to make sure I did my part."
Sundell, 29, has drawn more than his share of ranked horses this season, and in-between he makes sure he and Janssen cross paths as much as possible.
"Actually, I'll get to watch her tonight," Sundell said. "She gets nervous, but she'll be fine."
The pair of rodeo lovebirds will meet up again tonight in Cody, Wyo., a mere seven-hour drive from Greeley.
"I won't head out until the morning," Sundell said. "So, tonight, we get to hang out together in Greeley."
Janssen often recruits her mother, Lori, as a traveling partner. She has flown her in to accompany her this weekend with stops in Cody, Wyo., and Red Lodge, Mont.
"Hopefully I'll be back here for the short round (Friday's finals)," Janssen said.
When Janssen and Sundell don't cross paths, they burn up the cell phone lines.
"A lot of late-night conversations," Sundell said. "Talking while we're traveling. It seems to be going pretty good right now. We have a lot of the same interests."
Janssen calls it "communication and trust," as the two main ingredients that keep the two together.
When reminded he was seven years Janssen's senior, Sundell joked, "I know. I'm getting to the young ones now."
In December, Sundell will retreat to Coleman to maintain his business of training performing horses.
"I put my nose to the grindstone, but I hang around the house a lot," he explained. "Then you just keep on rollin,'".
Janssen has worked on making a living as a barrel racer, teaming with her horse, Hot Playboy Chick, otherwise known as Bunny.
"She's a great horse ... we make a good pair," said Janssen, who has the word "Believe" tattooed on the inside of her left wrist.
"That's to remind me to believe in my dreams," she said. "You have to always believe."
Sundell is believing in his draws, adding "when the horse you're riding is hot, you're hot. You put your name in the hat anyway you can. When you're hot, you're on."

Hey, wet bandit is alive.
Hey, wet bandit is alive.
Ok fine, Jefferson does seem to be giving more effort this game, but still. Halfway through the 3rd and Kanter has only been in the game for 5 minutes and Favors with 8...
Where u watching the game UGLI??
its a blessing from the god that they miss so many open 3s. How the hell we leave so many open man around i dont get it, we still have the same problems left from last year.
Jefferson is so blind he couldnt just pass it to millsap who is free under the rim
And mo williams sucks at passing, he throw the ball like he is throwing watermelon and they interrupted the ball
Jefferson is horrible.
Marvin Williams sucks
Al Jefferson sucks
These refs suck
Tyrone Corbin sucks
Go Jazz!
5-19 for AJ and Milsap combined. 5-9 for Kanter and Favors. 13 for each pair.
Favors for PG!
That was ugly. If Jefferson is 4-13 and he keeps getting looks, I'm fine with Favors getting more opportunities.
bored shiftless...
That is why Tinsley should not be on the court.
Cy is a Baker, he doesn't work fast food. Don't make that mistake, he doesn't like it.

The first commandment of advertising is, "Know your audience." It's why Dodge sells trucks by honoring God, farmers and Paul Harvey and Doritos sells tortilla chips by showing a renegade chip-eating-goat attacking some hoarder who looks like a young, hipster-bearded James Joyce.
In the crowdsourced world you get the most by reaching out to your constituents.
That also goes for drumming up support for the coming Southeast rail line, which Metro said is 71 percent complete (with the notable asterisk that the percentage doesn't include the downtown work shared with the East End Line). Metro is working with University of Houston students to get support on campus and in the surrounding community for the rail line, expected to open in 2014.
Specifically, students spent the fall semester brainstorming different ways to support local businesses along the line, some of which are suffering through construction, and to spread the word about the line and its benefits for students. About 85 percent of the 40,000 or so people enrolled at UH commute, according to a Metro release. Here's more:
METRO asked students to focus their efforts on campaign and research projects designed to strengthen the relationship between METRO and the university, increase public awareness of light-rail, and encourage student/faculty support for more than 500 businesses located along the North, East End and Southeast lines.
"The University of Houston, as a stakeholder on the Southeast Line, plays an important part in successful expansion of the Southeast line – through construction, testing and of course in final operation," said Thomas Lambert, interim president and CEO of METRO. "Getting buy-in through this creative partnership with advertising and public relations students is one way we can forge a partnership for years to come."
It's a bit of a change in tone from last year, when Metro and the campus were at odds over the rail line and some property. The school and transit system had to overcome some disagreements about land, and Metro agreed to mitigate construction, according to the university's Daily Cougar.
Now everybody seems to be celebrating, metaphorically, with a three-a-half-toed paw raised to the roof.
"We always appreciate when our students can translate their coursework to real-life with clients like METRO," said Larry Kelley, professor of advertising at the UH Jack J. Valenti School of Communication. "The students remained engaged and excited throughout the project, and we're looking forward to offering this again in the fall."
That'll be just in time to get everyone ready for the anticipated opening day of the rail line. Then we'll see if all that engagement got students to hop on board. In the meantime, the Super Bowl ad blitz continues, sort of. And apparently ad mavens for transit can swipe a thing or two from truck sales.

Product DescriptionThe SR9c compact pistol weighs in at 23.40 oz. and features an overall length of 6.85", a height of 4.61", and the same slim 1.27" grip width as the full-sized SR9. The pistol utilizes the same adjustable, high-visibility 3-Dot sight system as its full-sized predecessor, setting it apart from many compact pistols that rely on fixed sights. The 3.50" barreled pistol features an integral accessory rail that accommodates most lights and lasers, while serrations located on the front portion of the slide, making it easier to both manipulate the slide and to press check the chamber. Just like the original, full-sized SR9, the SR9c is loaded with modern safety features like a 1911-style ambidextrous manual safety, internal trigger bar interlock and striker blocker, trigger safety, magazine disconnect, plus a visual and tactile loaded chamber indicator. This handgun features fixed 3-dot sights and a 2-position safety and includes one10-round magazine, one 17-round magazine, and the original factory hard case. Its grips, metal, and bore are all in very good condition.

About This BookThe boy whose stories became Fiddler on the Roof
Sholom Aleichem's favorite childhood memory may have been listening as his father read stories aloud on Saturday nights and a roomful of adults burst out laughing. Sholom wanted to make people laugh, too. At school he became the class clown. At home he imitated even his pious grandmother. But Sholom was also thoughtful. In Russia in the 1800s, life was especially difficult for Jews, and Sholom longed to help his father by finding a legendary hidden treasure. It turned out that Sholom Aleichem's destiny was to give his father a different kind of treasure - one of words and tales that to this day bring laughter to readers around the world.
This taut, focused biography of the young Sholom Aleichem is animated with the artist's quick, brilliant line and richly toned watercolors.

It's time for Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) to start an iPhone family. Instead of releasing one model per year, and moving older iPhones to successively lower price points, Apple is widely expected to launch multiple models later this year for the first time in the product's history.
Assuming that the iPhone maker releases a mid-range iPhone alongside a new flagship, what happens to the lineup?
The mid-range model that is being referred to casually as the "iPhone Lite" that's made out of polycarbonate is expected to price between $350 and $400 without carrier subsidies. That would give the device a better chance at penetrating emerging markets, particularly those that don't utilize the subsidy model. However, within subsidized markets, that retail price tag is less than the estimated $425 subsidy that Apple currently fetches, which implies that it would displace the iPhone 4 as the new free-on-contract iPhone.
If Apple were to still partially implement its previous strategy of moving older models down, it could then keep the iPhone 5 at the $100 subsidized price point, while the updated flagship "iPhone 5S" would start at $200 on contract. That seems to be the most logical strategy that covers all the relevant subsidized price points, which implies that Apple may discontinue the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.
Price On Contract
iPhone Lite
iPhone 5
iPhone 5S
There would be another marginal benefit to this lineup. All of these models would have four-inch displays, which would unify the product family, and solidify the transition to the larger screen size. That would help mitigate the layer of screen fragmentation that Apple introduced last year to iOS. The older 3.5-inch models would still be around, and Apple can't get rid of the older resolution so easily, but it would be a relatively quick shift. That would be despite the fact that Apple is expected to introduce an even larger iPhone model next year, but investors will cross that bridge when they come to it.
Demand for the iPhone 4 is proving to be surprisingly resilient, precisely because it's now free on contract where there's been pent-up demand. A new model at that price point would sell even better than a device released in 2010.

On last week's hard-fought game vs. LSU
"First of all, let me say that LSU is an outstanding football team. I've been picking them number one all year and they finally got to be number one, so, they're a heck of a team. I'll tell you what, I'm extremely proud of the effort that we gave last Saturday. I think we gained a lot of respect not only around New Orleans and Louisiana, but across the country. I've been getting a lot of e-mails and calls from friends and they were really excited about the effort we gave. But as I told our players Monday, I'm excited about the effort and pleased with the emotion and intensity we played with but I'm still disappointed it was a loss. I don't want them to ever think that a loss is good and I don't believe in moral victories. You either win games or you lose games - period. There are no moral victories. There's no question we played hard. We played with great intensity and we played with a lot of emotion."
On the atmosphere Saturday in the Superdome
"Our student body was going crazy and that helped give us energy. It was a fantastic atmosphere for our football team. I think we gave the crowd energy and the crowd gave us energy. I haven't been involved in one of those games in a long, long time and it was kind of fun. That's one of the reasons I'm back in it. I love that kind of an atmosphere."
On his team's play against the newly-appointed No. 1 team in the nation
"It was the best offensive and defensive line performance that we have had since I've been here. On both sides of the ball, they did a fantastic job. Defensively, obviously, we had six sacks. Offensively, I think we gave up two sacks, but we haven't given up many and we were able to run the ball. We were able to do some things too and we kind of had to get out of our game plan. So from both standpoints, being over-maxed, so to speak, I thought we really handled our own and did as well as we possibly could have. Our punter did a great job. We pinned them four times inside the 10, so they had to 90-plus yards to go on four occasions and it's hard to drive that length of the field and score many points."
On hanging with LSU during the first half
"The first half was exceptional. I really thought we played extremely well in the first half. We scored a little too quickly there because we gave them a chance to get the kickoff return and come back and kick a field goal just before half. But I was really happy we played as well as we did."
On the play up front by Tulane's offensive and defensive lines
"When I talked about sacks, right now we lead Conference USA in sacks and have the least amount of sacks allowed by our offense. So in both categories, we're doing a very good job. I'm pleased with that.
On his goals going into last Saturday's game vs. LSU
"One of the things we wanted to do (was) we wanted to get in the fourth quarter and have it be a close game. That was kind of my talk Friday night to the team - let's get it into the fourth quarter. Unfortunately, we came out for the third quarter, they scored and then we fumbled on the 50. They scored, and then we come back to the 25 where we probably could have gotten some points and then we throw an interception and they score again. Then, it's basically over. They take the wind out of our sails and then we're out of our game plan. But, you take away those two turnovers and it's a really interesting football game at the end. And I'm not saying we would have won but I'm saying it would have been a really competitive football game at the end."
On using so many trick plays during the first four games of the season
"A lot of people have asked about the trick plays. Some of you guys (the media) were talking about it. When you go into a game like this and you're 'overmatched,' you've got to try and make some plays. You've got to try and make something happen and that's what we did. On that opening kickoff, we had the lateral back, and I'll tell you what, if we get the ball off and he catches it, there's nobody on this side of the hashmark. So we're going to make a big, big play. That's what we needed to do. We needed to make some big plays. The trick plays, we've been practicing those for a couple of weeks and we didn't pull them all off, but it made them (LSU) a little concerned. It made them be a little more cautious, and it made them think. And you want defenses to think. You don't want them to read and react and play fast. We wanted to make them think and slow down, and that's what we did. And I really believe that helped us to open up some other things. We were able to run the ball against them like nobody else has run it on them because they were kind of thinking a little bit. So we took away some of their aggressiveness and I'm always going to have a trick play or two in the game. I told you that when I first took the job. I've always been that way because of the reasons I just stated. It gives you a chance to make a big play. It gives you momentum. Now people have to practice (against) it, and now people are practicing these plays and when they're practicing these particular plays, they're not spending time trying to stop the things that you really do. So it takes away from their practice time."
On this weekend's opponent, Army
"This week against Army, they're 2-3. They beat Temple last week. We haven't won a road game since Mississippi State last year, so that's one of the things I'm talking about. If you want to win and be a champion, you've got to win on the road. We have got to learn how to win on the road and it starts this week. It's our first road game since the national TV game, 7:00. And our big thing is, we need to continue to improve. I don't want to see us take a step backwards this week. I want to see us progress, continue to improve and get better. It's our last non-league game before we get into league next week, so we need to take that next step. I want to build on that first-half effort (vs. LSU). I thought it was a great effort and I want to build on that."
On his opinion of the Black Knights' team
"The thing about Army is I've got nothing but the utmost respect for that program. My son-in-law went to the Air Force Academy. I know what those guys go through. I'll tell you what, it's hard enough being just a football player, but to go to an academy and do what they do...I appreciate what they do and I've got nothing but the utmost respect for them. Their offensive coordinator is Tim Walsh. Tim and his brother Jim played for me when I was the head coach at UC Riverside. Tim grew up being the little guy around our football program all of the time. He went to Serra High School, those places being in the San Francisco area, but I know him well. He was at Portland State a year ago. He's a good football coach. It'll be fun to see him. They've got some outstanding players and you know about them as well as I do. They've got a great DB, an outstanding receiver/kick returner, so they've got some good football players."
On the injury report
"We didn't have any injuries that were serious which was a big concern of mine coming out of the game. We've got some nicks and bumps and sprains but nothing serious that's going to keep anybody out of the game or that requires surgery or any of those kinds of things. So I'm pleased with that."
On Tulane's Players of the Week
"Our offensive player of the game was Michael Parenton. He did a fantastic job. I've said I didn't think he could do what he did, and he far exceeded my expectations. He did a great job. (LSU defensive tackle Glenn) Dorsey, to me, is a Top 5 pick in the NFL Draft. He's an Outland guy. He's a Lombardi guy. He's a great football player and Michael handled him pretty well. He had three tackles that were assisted, that's it, so (Parenton) did a good job against him. Antonio Harris was our Defensive Player of the Week. He's been our most consistent guy defensively. He's our captain. He had three tackles, two sacks, two tackles for loss, and a pass breakup, so again, he's really playing well. I mean, he's an all-league caliber football player right now. And then our Special Teams Player of the Game is Craig Gelhardt. Craig made 3 tackles on punts, he downed that little pooch kick out of a field goal formation down on the three (yard line) which really helped us as well."
On Tulane's captains for the Army game
"The two captains that will be with Matt Forte and Antonio Harris this week will be David Skehan. He leads the league in interceptions with three, he's made a lot of big plays for us and he's going home. So, he's going to be the captain this week along with Michael Parenton. Like I said, he had his best game (against LSU), did an outstanding job, and will be the fourth captain."
On being able to play with emotion every week
"What we're doing is we're teaching them all the time. The sideline...I took the sideline from the Southeastern (Louisiana) game and I showed them on the video our sideline mannerisms. Forte fell on the ground and five or six guys just walked away. Nobody picked him up. Nobody got excited. We are constantly teaching our guys how to perform, how to play in the game, and how to be a part of the game. So to answer your question, I told them, that's the way you've got to perform to have a chance to be successful. You need to play with emotion. You need to play with intensity. You've got to get excited and part of that is my job and I think we're all working on it. We were coming down that tunnel and I'll tell you what, there were a bunch of fired up football players. And I think yes, I told them, if you want to win, you've got to continue to play like that. We all know it's hard to be 'up' for every game, but for us, if we're going to be able to compete, we've got to be up and ready to go. And I told them, there are no excuses. There is no such thing as 'well, I wasn't ready to play' or 'I wasn't up for the game.' You only get so many chances. You've got be fired up and ready to play for every game. So, again, we're teaching them every week. Some things happen and we're trying to teach them how to be a winning football program."
On looking for positives week to week
"Against Houston, obviously I was looking for (positive) things, because everybody said 'oh, you got beat bad' and 'you look bad,' and 'blah, blah, blah...made mistakes.' So you try and look for positive things to keep them involved, keep them going and keep them believing. After this week I think there's a trust that's been built. The players said 'Coach, now we know what you're talking about. Now we realize why you have to practice so hard.' You know, you have to focus and prepare yourself and go watch film on your own and do some of those things. So, I think there's a trust being built here where the players realize that if they do what we tell them to do, then we've got a chance to be successful and they're buying into the program."
On how the low expectations of Tulane affected the team's performance
"That's part of the motivation. Publicly, obviously, I was singing the blues and rightfully so. They (LSU) are a good football team and I was being very honest with the public. But to our team, I was telling them 'Hey guys, we've got to change this. If you do this and this and this and you practice hard and prepare, we've got a chance. That's why you play the game.' And I gave them examples of games that took place over the years and that people won that had no right to win. I think they went in with a little chip on their shoulder and I think that was good. You find out a lot about a person or a team when their back is against the wall. Their backs were against the wall, they came out fighting and I'm proud of them."
On if he was trying to sandbag the medias well
"Well, not really, because you guys told me how great they were, too. They're a great football team. I mean, you look at Virginia Tech. They didn't make a first down in the first half. You look at South Carolina. What'd they have? Seventeen yards rushing? I wasn't fooling anybody. I was being honest. But again, to my team, you can't be honest to the team. You've got to tell them a little bit about what can really happen, so, that's what I was doing."
On if he felt calling trick plays stalled any of the team's drives vs. LSU
"No, I didn't. No, because that was our plan going into the game. We were going to try and make big plays. We were going to try and keep them off balance and make them think. I talked to Les (Miles) and I know a couple of their coaches, I talked to them after the game. It kept them off balance, it really did, and that was my objective was - to make them have to think and not react real fast."
On if he ran trick plays just to run them
"I don't believe in that. I believe those plays are not just trick plays that you draw up in the dirt. They're calculated risks, but they're plays that I believe that can work and I'll tell you what, they have worked. I have them on video that I've used in the past and I showed the plays. The players saw those plays on video from previous games that I've had work. So I don't draw them up not to work. In other words, I draw them up to make a big play and it creates momentum. If you score on one of those plays, all of a sudden, you create a lot of momentum and you're not just going to wind up running it down their throat. You've got to create and that's what I tried to do. I tried to make some big plays. I don't look back at those things. That's the plan we had going in."
On Tulane's defensive strategy implemented last Saturday
"Well first of all, I thought we had a good game plan. I make suggestions (on defense), I don't make a lot of decisions on that side of the ball. But I talked with (defensive coordinator) Thom Kaumeyer, and I give my suggestions and then he goes about with his job and those guys did a great job with preparing their guys to play. But the big thing was we had to stop the run. We had to make them throw the football. That was our feeling. We had to line up and take the run away from them as best we could. We were very aggressive, and we moved the line. They were bigger, so we didn't want to line up head up. We moved the line and slanted them and flipped and did a couple things they hadn't seen - just mainly tried to disrupt their timing and to make them have to throw the football. They made a couple of big plays in the passing game, which hurt us, but for the most part we stopped the run pretty good, particularly, in the first half."
On the difference between Tulane's defensive performance against Houston and LSU
"Well, I think one of the things is a different kind of offense. They (Houston) spread you all over the field. They utilize their athletes and space and it was what, our second game? We're learning about ourselves more every game and every week. Sometimes our kids think they were practicing hard and they really weren't practicing hard enough...things like that. The tempo in practice wasn't fast enough for them and that's maybe our fault and we need to get that tempo faster. It's been faster in the last couple weeks so I think it's a growing pain, you know what I mean."
On junior free safety David Skehan
"He's got three interceptions, which leads Conference USA, and he's got a fumble recovery. He's a very smart football player. He's not the most talented guy in the world, but he's very smart and sometimes he's too smart. He sometimes takes too many chances, but on the other hand, he makes a lot of plays because of it. He's got a slight separation of his shoulder, we're going to take him off of some special teams and we're not hitting him this week, but it's just more of a sprain than anything else. He's one of the guys that I've mentioned that's nicked up, but he's going to play."
On what Toledo has learned about the team after the first four games
"Well, one of the things that I've learned is they respond to what we tell them. When we tell them something, they respond to it, and that's important. As a coach when you tell them, 'You need to do this, you need to do that, you've got to do this,' and then they do it, it makes you feel like you're coaching them. When they don't do it, you feel like they're not even paying attention. So they're responding to coaching right now. I think they're working extremely hard every day. Every week, it gets better. This Monday, yesterday, was the best Monday we've had since we've been here. Last week, the last Thursday, was the best Thursday. So, all of a sudden, they're learning how to practice. They're learning what we expect of them. They're doing what we expect of them. And I think that's important. We're building a program. Like I said, they didn't know how to act on the sideline. They didn't know how to act before the game. The first game, I talked to a little to fire them up and I turn around and they're like, 'Okay, here we go,' and so they get fired up. I'm hitting them on the helmet, I'm swinging at them, I'm doing anything to get them emotional. Now, they've figured it out. They're like 'Hey, this is what we've got to do.' We're constantly teaching them this is what it takes to be a winning football team."
On who is playing quarterback Saturday at Army
"Well, we're going to go with (Anthony) Scelfo to start with again, and we'd like to get Kevin Moore in the game again. Scott (Elliott) is on the backburner for a little bit and he knows that. We've given him an opportunity and he's ready and willing and all of those things, but we're going to give these other two guys a chance. I'm really disappointed in our passing game right now. I think our passing efficiency is not what I'm used to. We're not throwing the ball well, but we're protecting extremely well. But we're getting balls knocked down, we're throwing balls over guys' heads, we're throwing too many interceptions, we're dropping too many passes. So from a passing efficiency standpoint, I'm really disappointed and - I think I've said this before - when you don't pass effectively or efficiently, all of a sudden you don't maintain possession of the football. You don't make any first downs, and you don't have as much time of possession, which I'm not a big time-of-possession guy, but you don't have the football. And when it's third down, you've got to convert and keep possession of the football. Otherwise, you're not going to score and you're putting your defense on the field too much. Our passing game has been a major disappointment."
On if Tulane's playbook is limited because of the inexperience of Moore and Scelfo
"No, it has nothing to do with it. We're trying to run our offense right now. Again, we tweaked things a little bit for Anthony. We tweaked things a little bit for Kevin. But that's not to say we're not running our offense. No, we're doing what we're doing and we're trying to build for the future on that. We're trying to show people that this is what we're going to do. I came in here saying we were going to run the football and we're running a little play action. Prior to last game, we were throwing 40 passes a game, too. We're going to throw the ball 35-40 times, but we're going to run the football and try to be efficient doing that and play action pass to try and get some big ones."
On if he is hoping the large fan turnout from the LSU game will continue throughout the season
"Well, I am hoping that and I hope we win these next few games too because then that will help to get the fan base. I was talking to Scott Elliott and he said, 'Coach, Ive been here for a few years and I've never seen the student body that excited before.' (Michael) Parenton told me, 'Coach that place was rocking. It gave us energy.' Scott said, 'I talked to some of the student body and thye couldn't believe how exciting it was and they couldn't wait to go to another game.' So, it's the chicken and the egg, right? What comes first? But the student body was awesome. The fans were awesome. They gave our kids a standing ovation at halftime. Our guys were looking around 'Are you kidding me?' They didn't know how to react. But it was neat and it fired our guys up."
On the fumble by Matt Forte early in the second half
"I talked to him and I told him right after he fumbled, 'Hey, shake that off. You're going to get a lot more chances. Don't worry about it.' I talked to him yesterday; and he's going to get to run the ball this week. You know, he fumbled the ball. What are you going to say? He knew he did something wrong and he didn't like it either. So you don't ravage the guy. You just tell him 'Hey, hang onto the football.' That's all you can do."
On if Scott Holt starting at right tackle is due to injuries
"No, that's a performance thing. He's performing better than the other guys."
On what roster changes the team has had to make so far this year
"The biggest thing we had to do was we had to bring Andre Anderson out of the redshirt year. We were going to redshirt him because we had three seniors, so we were going to try and redshirt him. But he was still going to travel and he was still going to practice and he was still going to be a part of it. We just didn't want to play him. Then Ade got hurt on the kickoff return so (Matt) Forte was the only guy left so it was either bringing Andre up or one of the freshmen running backs up, and we decided to bring Andre in. I was glad he scored (against LSU) because that made him burning his redshirt year worthwhile."
On traveling this weekend
"I've never been on the road with them, and we'll talk to them Thursday. We'll have a meeting with them. We'll talk about Thursday, how you travel, what you do and what my expectations are. It's like a business trip. It's not a pleasure trip. They've got to learn that it's business, so we're going there to work and I'm anxious to see them on the road. I don't know what it's like to play in the daytime. I've had a roof over my head."

MARTINSBURG - More than 50 percent of correctional officers hired by the state's Regional Jail Authority leave their jobs annually within their first year of employment, according to Executive Director Joe DeLong.
Speaking at a regional cost containment committee meeting held Tuesday at the Eastern Regional Jail, DeLong said that while annual staff turnover for the agency as a whole is a little more than 50 percent each year, among correctional officers there is a 68 percent turnover rate annually.
"From a human resources standpoint, obviously a tremendous issue we have is employee turnover. It's a shocking number here, when you think about it," DeLong said.

Executive Director Joe DeLong
He said high turnover leads to excessive overtime costs and more employee turnover because of things like "burnout" and low morale. It also leads to high training costs, according to DeLong.
About $3 million per year is spent just training new hires. DeLong said the starting pay for a correctional officer in West Virginia is just $22,500. By comparison, he said, the starting salary for a federal correctional officer is $39,000, which is comparable to surrounding states, including Maryland and Virginia. For even longtime employed correctional officers, their salary tops out below $30,000 by the time they earn enough experience to have a high-ranking position.
"These are very difficult jobs. When you work people to death and they can't get home to their families and they can't have a life outside of the jail, they get burned out very quickly," DeLong said.
Based on an action plan developed about two years ago, the jail authority examined whether officers were being scheduled appropriately. He said that, for the most part, the Eastern Regional Jail's staff was scheduled appropriately, but the high turnover rate should be addressed by higher pay for officers and granting counties and administrative boards autonomy in setting correlation officer salaries.
"We can't afford not to address this issue, because it's costing us more money than it's saving us. We're paying more in the end than if we were paying our officers a little bit more," DeLong said.
Jim Auxer, Shepherdstown's mayor and a regional jail authority staff member, said the issue is compounded by competitive salaries in surrounding states near the Eastern Panhandle.
"When you have all these border states, I mean, they are paying them $12,000 to $15,000 more a year to drive 20 miles. Who is not going to do that? I mean, if you have a family and your wife doesn't work, you are scraping by," Auxer said. "We lose these people to Maryland. Virginia? I don't know how many they've taken - 25 people in the last six months, at least."
A counselor employed by the Eastern Regional Jail for 19 years, whose starting salary was just more than $16,000, told DeLong that West Virginia has become nothing more than a training ground for correctional officers to find jobs in Maryland or Virginia.
Jefferson County Magistrate Gail Boober said the high cost of living in the Eastern Panhandle and low pay for correctional officers is also a contributor to the low morale.
"I tell you, some of the guys here actually qualify for food stamps. The cost of living in the Eastern Panhandle versus southern West Virginia - they can't afford to work here," Boober said.

razor ruddock talking comeback again
http://www.********boxing.com/news.p...71&more=1James Slater - For some time now, there has been talk of a ring return planned by 1990's heavyweight star Donovan "Razor" Ruddock. The Canadian powerhouse himself stated that he would be returning to the ring, even appearing on a video (which wound up on You Tube), looking to be in shape and as ready to fight as he could be at age 48. But then nothing happened - which, fans felt, was maybe for the best..
But Ruddock seems determined to fight again, and the latest word is that the man who once rumbled with Mike Tyson (twice), Lennox Lewis and Tommy Morrison, is weighing around 215-pounds and is aiming at winning back the Canadian heavyweight belt.
As is almost always the case when an ageing, former champ or contender sets off on a trip down the road back, Ruddock says he is "Stronger and faster" now, and that he is "In the best shape of my life." Razor, who last boxed in 2001 (a win over Egerton Marcus, to capture the Canadian strap) went further, stating that he now realises he "wasn't in shape when fighting Tyson."
Speaking with The Toronto Star, Ruddock, 38-5-1(29) says he wants his old title back first, before moving on to something bigger.
"I didn't lose it, I just left it," Razor said of the Canadian belt. "I'm looking for a fight like yesterday. I'm not doing this for money. I'm doing this because I want to do it. If I go in there and I lose one fight, by any means, then I realise I'm off, I'm wrong and I'm going to give it a walk. This is a dangerous sport and I'm putting 100-percent into it."
Ruddock says he is "disappointed" by today's heavyweight division, and he is aiming to become the oldest ever champ, adding "panache and punching power" to the weight class as he does so. Ruddock is still looking for licence approval, as well as for a comeback foe and a date, yet he has his eyes on a fight with Neven Pajkic ("Sadly for him, he's wearing the belt I want," Razor said of his countryman).
Personally, I'll be surprised if Ruddock gets that far, much less as far as he is ultimately aiming: "I'll be putting Tyson Fury, Chris Arreola, Dereck Chisora, David Haye, Bermain Stiverne, Seth Mitchell, and Tomasz Adamek on the exact same pudding diet too."
And then: "After I feast on the appetizers, I'll dive in for two helpings of Chicken Kiev. The older brother (Vitali) avoided me 11 years ago, and now he has to pay. The younger one (Wladimir) just bores me. I'll have to knock him out also."
How delusional is Ruddock, who is also embroiled in a legal wrangling regarding the "Smash" Trash compactor he invented some years back? He does look to have shed the pounds, at least judging by the photos that are out there on the net, but has Razor even sparred any decent rounds yet?
Ruddock's name still rings a bell with the fans, yet the one-time star's past glories came a long, long time ago.

Ruddock who faced off and lost against the likes of Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis and Tommy Morrison back in the day is saying all the right things for now and is said to be 211 pounds and aiming for Canadian champion Neven Pajkic and then of course the Klitschko brothers who of course avoided him 11 years ago.
Were warned via press release that this is not a stereotypical comeback and that the man who retired as Canadian heavyweight champion with a shoulder injury in 2001 wants at least three fights this summer before Pajkic. Three fights in a summer of course would make him the most active heavyweight in the country.

Maybe he could win the Canadian heavyweight bragging championship. If he couldn't do it at 30 he ain't doing it at 48.

I normally pay no heed to letters or guest columns. However, the Feb. 6 letter from Steve Cook of Clarendon was so hate-filled and venomous, I feel the need to reply.
In all his self-righteous pomposity, Cook castigated the newspaper and vilified the late Molly Ivins. He gloried in the fact that at last this vile person had been removed from this life.
After his hateful diatribe, Cook said, "As a Christian I ask. ..."
My, my. What a contradiction. Nothing could be further removed from Christian belief than the hatred and venom that spewed forth form the pen of Steve Cook.
Rather that hatred and barely concealed exaltation, Cook should have felt compassion and offered a prayer for Molly's family that mourned the loss of a loved one. I suggest Cook go off to a quiet place and reflect on the faith he thinks he possesses.

Personally, I think Justin Syrah is even better than the better-known Justin Cabs. Very smooth, but bold flavor. It works well with steak and such, but because it's a bit fruitier than the Cabs, can be server with other foods as well. Very versatile wine.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Opaque core lightening to a pale purple-ruby rimAroma: Rich blackberry and boysenberry fruit with cracked black pepper, sweet vanilla, herbs and smokePalate: Full bodied and complex with a mix of bright blackberry and a little cherry fruit with dried herbs and smoked meat on the mid-palate. Finish Is long and complex with vibrant blackberry and cherry fruit, a bit of pepper, herbs and mineral notes surrounded by firm, but well balanced tannins.
Technical Notes
This wine is on the soft side with deep wild raspberry and blackberry tones that are framed with a note of moist earth and oak driven vanilla and spice tones. Definitely a bigger, richer style yet one that remains soft and supple if lacking much of the spice and meatiness of the grape

Sustainability Council
Purpose and Mission
On June 5, 2007, Chancellor Robert Coombe of the University of Denver signed the Presidents' Climate Commitment. "The DU community is concerned with global warming and vested in sustainability," Coombe says. "Universities should play an important role in building sustainability through continued efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions."
Check out the Council bylaws, approved May 2010.
In the past few years more than 600 American University Presidents and Chancellors have signed the "Presidents Climate Commitment." The preface to that commitment states:
We, the undersigned presidents and chancellors of colleges and universities, are deeply concerned about the unprecedented scale and speed of global warming and its potential for large-scale, adverse health, social, economic and ecological effects. We recognize the scientific consensus that global warming is real and is largely being caused by humans. We further recognize the need to reduce the global emission of greenhouse gases by 80% by mid-century at the latest, in order to avert the worst impacts of global warming and to reestablish the more stable climatic conditions that have made human progress over the last 10,000 years possible.
While we understand that there might be short-term challenges associated with this effort, we believe that there will be great short-, medium-, and long-term economic, health, social and environmental benefits, including achieving energy independence for the U.S. as quickly as possible.
We believe colleges and universities must exercise leadership in their communities and throughout society by modeling ways to minimize global warming emissions, and by providing the knowledge and the educated graduates to achieve climate neutrality. Campuses that address the climate challenge by reducing global warming emissions and by integrating sustainability into their curriculum will better serve their students and meet their social mandate to help create a thriving, ethical and civil society. These colleges and universities will be providing students with the knowledge and skills needed to address the critical, systemic challenges faced by the world in this new century and enable them to benefit from the economic opportunities that will arise as a result of solutions they develop.
We further believe that colleges and universities that exert leadership in addressing climate change will stabilize and reduce their long-term energy costs, attract excellent students and faculty, attract new sources of funding, and increase the support of alumni and local communities.
By signing the Presidents' Climate Commitment, each University president or Chancellor agreed:
- Initiate the development of a comprehensive plan to achieve climate neutrality as soon as possible.
- Within two years of signing this document, develop an institutional action plan for becoming climate neutral, which will include:
- A target date for achieving climate neutrality as soon as possible.
- Interim targets for goals and actions that will lead to climate neutrality
- Actions to make climate neutrality and sustainability a part of the curriculum and other educational experience for all students.
- Actions to expand research or other efforts necessary to achieve climate neutrality.
- Mechanisms for tracking progress on goals and actions.

You deliberately gained weight before leaving for Panama. How did you feel by Day 22?
I was bug-bitten and everything else, but until the game was over for me and my stomach started to bother me, I felt excellent every day. When you look at how I looked those last few days out there, gosh, who knows what I would have been like if I didn't (put weight on earlier).
More on Your
Favorite Stars
I was drinking the dirty water from day one because we weren't able to boil it right off the bat. I thought, "Well, if I'm going to get sick, I'll get sick, but there is a chance I won't, and I don't want to be dehydrated." That caught up with me in January! And we had finished in December.
On paper, your La Mina tribe was stronger and more cohesive. Why didn't it succeed?
I think there were some weak links that kept us from winning some key challenges, and we didn't have the numbers at the merge.
You set a fashion trend on Survivor with your shorts and high socks. What was that about?
That's just how I grew up. I played soccer and we wore our socks like that, but I would wear them like that even when I wasn't playing soccer. I have friends who can tell you that's how I always wore them and they would always make fun of me.
When you won the reward of seeing your family's video, what else was on the tape?
My boyfriend sent me an absolutely hilarious video. He just had on a powder-blue Speedo and was dancing around and doing this German voice. Jeff Probst's face was classic – he was like, "What is going on?"
What did you learn about yourself from being on the show?
It's like someone holds a mirror up to you and says, "This is you in the worst of situations." I made a lot of mistakes, but at the end of the day I am so okay with who I am. Just to have time to step away and look at my new life, it offered me an affirmation of where I am now.

Albright-Knox to Join in Association of Art Museum Directors' Celebration of Art Museum Day on May 18, 2011
May 12, 2011
Buffalo, NY – The Albright-Knox Art Gallery announced today that it will offer free admission and a 20% discount on memberships on Wednesday, May 18, 2011, as part of the Association of Art Museum Directors' (AAMD) Art Museum Day. Coinciding with International Museum Day, Art Museum Day will focus on the theme of "museum and memory." Participation by AAMD member museums emphasizes the lasting impact art museums have on their communities, highlight the value of visual arts in society, and provide new opportunities for audiences to participate in the wide-ranging programs that art museums offer. In 2010, ninety AAMD member museums across North America participated in the initiative.
Visitors are encouraged to stop by the Gallery on May 18, even if they only have time for a short visit; admission will be free of charge. Anyone opening a new membership that day will automatically receive a 20% discount.
In announcing the Gallerys participation in this world-wide program, Gallery Director Louis Grachos said "Art Museum Day is a great opportunity to visit the Albright-Knox and experience the wonders of the Gallery and the incredible exhibitions that are currently on view, drawn from our stellar Collection. If you havent been to the Gallery in a while, it is a great day to visit. I hope that people will think about visiting some of the other great visual arts organizations in our area too, like CEPA, Hallwalls, and the Burchfield Penney Art Center. We are delighted to participate in this great initiative."
AAMD member museums located across the United States, Canada, and Mexico include smaller regional museums as well as large international institutions. International Museum Day is organized annually around the world by the International Council of Museums (ICOM). AAMDs Art Museum Day is an opportunity to focus attention on the role of art museums in North America, as part of ICOMs global celebration of museums.
"Art Museum Day is an opportunity to celebrate the collective memory of human creativity, both past and present, that art museums hold in the public trust," said Kaywin Feldman, President of AAMD and Director and President of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. "AAMD believes that art should be accessible and relevant to all, and we are so pleased that the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is joining with us and the global community of museums to create new opportunities for audiences to engage with museum collections and programs."
A comprehensive list of participating AAMD member art museums will be available in the newsroom of the AAMD website.

In 2013, the City of Regensburg is going to celebrate the 350th anniversary of the Immerwährender Reichstag – a permanent assembly of the imperial estates of the Holy Roman Empire that initially had not been supposed to be permanent. According to contemporary diplomats, monarchs, and publicists who have been quoted repeatedly by later generations this institution was said to be lacking of efficiency and political influence and it was famous for its ceremonial disputes and diplomatic intrigues. The majority of historians in the 19th and 20th centuries tended to characterize the Immerwährender Reichstag in very negative terms, too. However, in the meantime this institution is seen in a more positive light. Due to the permanent or periodical presence of foreign legates at the diet, the free imperial city of Regensburg constituted a diplomatic centre, not only of the Holy Roman Empire but also of all Europe. Acting in this role, the Imperial Diet reflects the early modern accumulation of inter-state relations which led to the emergence of the European state system.
The conference "Town, Empire and Europe. Multiple Perspectives on the Immerwährenden Reichstag zu Regensburg (1663-1806)" aims at summarizing already existing research results on this assembly of the imperial estates as well as at initiating future research projects by raising new questions and discussing new methods and theoretical approaches. The Eternal Imperial Diet has been neglected by historians for a very long time but in recent times there can be noticed an increasing interest. Historians are no longer concentrating only on specific conflicts which were discussed at the Imperial diet or on the aims and the performance of certain diplomatic missions. Rather, they analyze the ways diplomats instrumentalized political procedures to promote their own interest. They look at strategies to gain information, at the influence of printed media on political negotiations, and at the public sphere of this assembly in general. They reconstruct structures of patronage amongst diplomatic agents at the diet.
Nowadays assessments of the historical relevance of the Immerwährender Reichstag are no longer based primarily on its actual output of political decisions. This institution is rather considered to have constituted a political sphere, in which various political interests could be articulated - also those of less powerful rulers as well as those of political entities without the political status of Reichsstandschaft. The Imperial Diet can be analyzed as a social space in which legates were able to deploy their social, cultural and economic capital but also to accumulate or lose it. Moreover, the Eternal Imperial Diet seems to have served as a school of diplomacy which produced whole dynasties of diplomats. At the conference, there will be various panels, each of them addressing a certain perspective on the Eternal Imperial Diet, such as
- the variety of strategies political actors exploited to promote their political aims at the diet
- information channels, media and public sphere of the diet
- its impact on the early modern processes of an institutionalization and professionalization of diplomacy
- patterns of cooperation and competition between the Imperial City of Regensburg and the Imperial Diet
- perceptions of the Immerwährender Reichstag by political actors outside of the Holy Roman Empire
- cultures of remembrance of the Eternal Imperial Diet
If you would like to contribute to the conference please send an abstract of your lecture (300 – 400 words) and a short CV with some information on your affiliation to email@example.com until the 15th January 2013. Travel expenses and accommodation will be sponsored. Revised papers will be published after the conference.

Nantucket Tuckernuck Bike Basket
Regular: $50.00
Special: $25.00
(Currently not available)
More than just a basket, the Nantucket Bike Basket Company Tuckernuck Rectangle Handlebar Basket is a handcrafted work of art, made from an extra thick weave of high quality rattan fiber from rural Indonesia. Deep enough to hold a bag full of groceries and functional enough for everyday rides around town.
This durable and practical bicycle basket holds up to everyday wear and tear and fits on upright handlebars. Rather than Velcro, this basket attaches to the handles bars with classic genuine leather buckle straps.
