As Kirk Ferentz broke the news publicly that Alex Kanellis would no longer be playing football, a picture flashed into my head.
I wrote a story about Alex after he committed to the Hawkeyes. The Kanellis family sent me a photo to run with the piece. In it, a pint-sized Alex wore a full Hawkeye uniform, I mean, helmet to jersey to pants, the works.
Alex was so proud of that picture. He really wanted me to use it. He wanted people to understand what it meant for him to become a Hawkeye. I thought it was pretty cool.
The image hit home today. Just like that, this guy's dream of helping the Hawkeyes reach great heights was squashed by severe headaches created by football contact. Life showed its cruel side.
Kanellis put the team first. He played as a true freshman even though his snaps were limited. He switched to offensive line from defense last season when it appeared he was needed there. Then, it's over.
Teammates Bryan Mattison, Mitch King, Matt Kroul and Jake Christensen all changed their tones when the conversation turned to Alex on Tuesday. Suddenly the football talk seemed less important. The toughness in them attempted to override the emotion in their heart, but their eyes and body motion showed the pain.
"We miss him," defensive end Bryan Mattison said. "I'm sorry that he can't be playing with us. He's a great kid and he has a good family to help him through this. We still talk to him all the time. I called him yesterday."
Kanellis arrived at Iowa as a highly decorated recruit. The 6-foot-4, 295-pound, mountain of a man earned all-American honors at Iowa City West. He chose the Hawkeyes in the fall of 2003, two years before his first season with them.
Alex grew up in the shadows of Kinnick Stadium. His grandmother, Dottie Ray, has become a legend on local radio. His parents, Amy and Mike, raised their son to love Iowa City and the Hawkeyes.
I reached Mike Kanellis by phone on Tuesday night. He declined comment, saying his family would like more time to pass and the hurt to decrease before speaking about it publicly. Alex did not respond to an email. I completely understood.
"It's really tough," quarterback Jake Christensen said. "Me and Alex have been really close since I've been here. His family has been unbelievable. They've really kind of been like the parents away from home for our class (2005). We were always over their house that first summer."
Although his playing career is over, Coach Ferentz hopes Kanellis will contribute to the program. He'll remain on scholarship and work with the team.
Alex Willcox and Vernon Jackson had their careers cut short by injury but have helped around the football complex. Willcox has aided the strength and conditioning program, and Ferentz felt that's where Kanellis would end up.
"It's certainly not mandatory, but I think he's enthused about that," Ferentz said. "Alex Willcox has done a great job both in strength and conditioning and coaching, so we're looking forward to having Alex (Kanellis) join us and make some real positive contributions on that front."
Kanellis suffered his first concussion during spring camp. It happened again during August camp. He then underwent a battery of tests with specialists at the university. Based on the information from physicians, the Kanellis family decided it wasn't worth the risk to play again.
"We all have a picture of when it's going to end and how it should end," Ferentz said. "When it doesn't end that way, it's tough. No player ever wants to give that up. You have to be smart, too. I think Alex is certainly aware of that. It's just not worth taking any unnecessary chances."
The finality of Kanellis' injury and his decision to walk away sure wasn't lost on his teammates. They all were aware that it could all end with the next collision. And that's why I've always laughed when people say a scholarship is enough compensation for what these guys do.
"I'd like to think that I appreciate it anyway," Mattison said. "But when you see it happen to one of your buddies, you sit back and realize you're glad you can still play."
Said King: "You never know when the next hit can take you out forever. You have to play every play like it's your last. It's a shame. Alex is a good friend of mine. I wouldn't want to risk anybody's safety for a game. As long as he can cope with it, we'll be there for him."
We can be thankful that doctors, coaches and players are taking concussions more seriously today than they did in the past. Trainers are refraining from waving smelling salts under a guy whose bell has been rung and pushing him back on the field.
I once ran into Joe Frazier at a Philadelphia racetrack and struck up a conversation. It was very sad. As hard as it must be for Alex, his family and friends, and others of us that knew and admired him, he did the right thing.
That said, it's going to hurt deeply when he watches his teammates line up against Iowa State next week. Reality sets in a little more that he won't ever face his in-state rival again. It's just not fair it happened to a good guy who just wanted to be a Hawk.

Mrs Patrick Campbell
|Mrs Patrick Campbell
|Beatrice Stella Tanner
9 February 1865
Kensington, London, England, UK
|9 April 1940 (age 75)
Pau, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France
|Other names
|Mrs Pat
|Years active
Mrs Patrick Campbell (9 February 1865 – 9 April 1940), born Beatrice Stella Tanner and known informally as "Mrs Pat", was an English stage actress.[1]
Early life and marriages[edit]
Campbell was born Beatrice Stella Tanner in Kensington, London, to John Tanner and Maria Luigia Giovanna, daughter of Count Angelo Romanini. She studied for a short time at the Guildhall School of Music. During her first marriage, from which she took the name by which she is generally known, she gave birth to two children, Alan "Beo" Urquhart and Stella. Her first husband died in the Boer War in 1900.[1]
Fourteen years later, Campbell became the second wife of George Cornwallis-West, a writer and soldier previously married to Jennie Jerome, the mother of Sir Winston Churchill. Notwithstanding her second marriage she continued to use the stage name "Mrs Patrick Campbell".[1]
Stage career[edit]
Beatrice Tanner made her professional stage debut in 1888 at the Alexandra Theatre, Liverpool, four years after her marriage to Patrick Campbell. In March 1890, she appeared in London at the Adelphi, where she afterward played again in 1891–93. She became successful after starring in Sir Arthur Wing Pinero's play, The Second Mrs Tanqueray, in 1893, at St. James's Theatre where she also appeared in 1894 in The Masqueraders. As Kate Cloud in John-a-Dreams, produced by Beerbohm Tree at the Haymarket in 1894, she had another success, and again as Agnes in The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith at the Garrick (1895).
Among her other performances were those in Fédora (1895), Little Eyolf (1896), and her notable performances with Forbes-Robertson at the Lyceum in the rôles of Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, Ophelia in Hamlet, and Lady Macbeth (1895–98) in Macbeth. Once established as a major star, Campbell assisted in the early careers of some noted actors, such as Gerald Du Maurier and George Arliss.[2]
In 1900, "Mrs Pat", having become her own Manager/Director, made her debut performance on Broadway in New York City in Heimat by Hermann Sudermann, a marked success. Subsequent appearances in New York and on tour in the United States established her as a major theatrical presence in America. Campbell would regularly perform on the New York stage until 1933. Other performances included roles in The Joy of Living (1902), Pelléas et Mélisande (1904; as Melisande to the Pelleas of her friend Sarah Bernhardt), Hedda Gabler (1907), Electra (1908), The Thunderbolt (1908), and Bella Donna (1911).
In 1914, she played Eliza Doolittle in the original West End production of Pygmalion which George Bernard Shaw had expressly written for her.[3][4] Although forty-nine years old when she originated the role opposite the Henry Higgins of Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree, she triumphed and took the play to New York and on tour in 1915 with the much younger Philip Merivale playing Higgins. She successfully played Eliza again in a 1920 London revival of the play.[5][6]
A couple of "Mrs Pat"'s later significant performances were as the title role in the 1922 West End production of Henrik Ibsen's play Hedda Gabler[7] and Mrs. Alving in the "Ibsen Centennial" (1928) staging of Ghosts (with John Gielgud as her son Oswald).[8] Her last major stage role was in the Broadway production of Ivor Novello's play A Party where she portrayed the cigar-smoking, pekinese wielding actress "Mrs. MacDonald" — a clear takeoff on her own well known persona — and made off with the best reviews. In her later years, Campbell made notable appearances in films, including One More River (1934), Riptide (1934), and Crime and Punishment (1935). Her tendency, however, to reject roles that could have vitally helped her career in later years caused Alexander Woollcott to declare "...she was like a sinking ship firing on the rescuers".[9]
Relationship with George Bernard Shaw[edit]
In the late 1890s Campbell first became aware of George Bernard Shaw — the famous and feared dramatic critic for The Saturday Review — who lavishly praised her better performances and thoroughly criticised her lesser efforts. Shaw had already used her as inspiration for some of his plays before their first meeting in 1897 when he unsuccessfully tried to persuade "Mrs Pat" to play the role of Judith Anderson in the first production of his play The Devil's Disciple.[10] Not until 1912, when they began negotiations for the London production of Pygmalion, did Shaw develop an infatuation for "Mrs Pat" that resulted in a passionate, yet unconsummated, love affair of mutual fascination and a legendary exchange of letters.[11] It was Campbell who broke off the relationship [12] although Shaw was about to direct her in Pygmalion. They remained friends in spite of the breakup and her subsequent marriage to George Cornwallis-West, but Shaw never again allowed her to originate any of the roles he had written with her in mind (e.g. Hesione Hushabye (Heartbreak House), the Serpent (Back to Methuselah), etc.).[13] When Anthony Asquith was preparing to produce the 1938 film of Pygmalion, Shaw suggested Campbell for the role of Mrs Higgins but she declined.[14]
In later years, Shaw refused to allow the impoverished Campbell to publish or sell any of their letters except in heavily edited form, for fear of upsetting his wife Charlotte Payne-Townshend and the possible harm that the letters might cause to his public image.[15] Most of the letters were not published until 1952, two years after Shaw's death.
Famous quote[edit]
Campbell was infamous for her sharp wit. Her best-known remark, uttered upon hearing about a male homosexual relationship, was "My dear, I don't care what they do, so long as they don't do it in the street and frighten the horses,"[16] although this remark has been attributed to others as well.
She died on 9 April 1940 in Pau, France, aged 75 of pneumonia.[1] Her death was one of the few deaths of a personal nature that George Bernard Shaw ever noted in his personal diaries.[17]
A note book belonging to Campbell is housed at the University of Birmingham Special Collections Department. Several collections of Campbell's correspondence, including her letters to Shaw (MS Thr 372.1), are part of the Harvard Theatre Collection at Houghton Library, Harvard University.

Wordless Wednesday: Closer to spring
Today, one of my Facebook friends posted a simple status update that read: "One day closer to spring!"
Today I woke up to see that about four inches of white fluffy snow had fallen overnight.
After December 25th, I'm pretty much over snow. I can remember thinking when I was younger that my parents were pretty Grinchy for despising winter and snow, but now that I'm older and have my own summer-hungry and stir-crazy toddlers, I get it.
Today, we're one day closer to spring, and that's worth celebrating! :)

Oh, I am soooo ready for spring! Beautiful capture, Crissy! Hope you're doing well. :)
I'm so sorry that you are still in winter mode. Here in Texas we are having spring. The trees and flowers are beginning to bloom. Hopefully spring will come soon for you :)

PEMBERVILLE - Isaac Williams broke Columbian's school record for career wins with his 5-0 record at the Eastwood Duals. Williams recorded two pins in the 152-pound weight class to move to 37-1 on the season and 132-39 for his career.
Columbian took second overall as a team, going 4-1 at the event. The Tornadoes defeated Findlay 55-19, Dublin Scioto 47-24, Williard 56-17 and Eastwood 33-27, but fell to Toledo Central Catholic 31-24.
Two other wrestlers joined Williams with 5-0 records for Columbian. Justin Kopp was undefeated at 119 and Jett Hurt was a 5-0 at 135 pounds.
Derik Kopp (103 pounds), Mason Corell (112), Drew Williams (140) and Seth Williams (145) all went 4-1. Drew Williams earned his 100th career win, marking the third Tornado to reach that goal this year (after Isaac Williams and Justin Kopp). Seth Williams' single loss was a 5-4 decision to state placer D.J. Beach of Central Catholic.
Also of note, freshman Andy Schwartz lost two close matches to go 3-2 at 130 pounds.
"As a freshmen he's wrestling really well," Columbian coach Chad Long said.
Columbian's overall dual record is now 17-8.

The best way is, IMHO, use a sniffer like wireshark/tcpdump.
You need a hub with port mirroring, and a big disk.
Once you capture it, you can extract single sessions between two
machines for analysis.
Look as something that you think should be fast, but isn't.
That's a starting point.

The two best teams at home faced each other as the Indians played the Rockies and the home team won all three games. It was the second straight series sweep for the Tribe at home coming directly after being swept by Oakland in Cleveland. The sweep was good enough to get the Indians out of fifth place and back to just 6.5 games behind Detroit in the Central. Since the beginning of May, the Indians are 16-13 and offense has been a big part of it. They have averaged 7.2 runs per game in the 15 wins since May 1st and just 2.1 RPG in the 13 losses.
The Red Sox are not the juggernaut they have been in the past and just lost ten games in a row before a three game sweep by the Rays inspired the Sox to wake up, after which they jumped to a seven game winning streak including a sweep against the same Rays who swept them the week before. With the win streak, Boston has surpassed Tampa Bay in the AL East, but still sit in fourth in their division. The Indians have a lot in common with the Red Sox as both teams are under-performing teams that had high expectations coming into the season. Both teams are coming hot, but the Indians have one advantage. They will have their top pitcher, Corey Kluber, going in the series, but will not have to face Jon Lester, who has owned the Tribe over his career to the tune of a 3.43 ERA with 83 K's in 78.2 innings.
Pitching Match-Ups
Game 1: Monday, June 2nd, 7:05 PM EDT (tickets)
John Lackey, RHP, 6-3, 3.27 ERA vs Justin Masterson, RHP, 2-4, 5.21 ERA
Lackey has not been anywhere near the pitcher the Red Sox thought they were getting when they initially signed him, but he has been better of late, throwing two straight shut outs (of 7 and 6.1 IP) against the Rays and Braves. In fact, outside of three starts when he gave up six runs in less than six innings, Lackey has allowed two or less in his other eight. He could definitely offer the Indians a tough match, although they will be better off than in the past with Jason Kipnis healthy and Michael Brantley, Lonnie Chisenhall and David Murphy playing extremely well.
Like Lackey, Masterson has not given the Indians what they expected of him and like the next Red Sox starter, he is in the midst of the worst season of his career. He was pitching a little better last time out against Chicago, but was pulled after just three innings due to rain. If coincidences mean anything, then Masterson should be great this time out as he has thrown his two scoreless outings in his first start of March and May.
Game 2: Tuesday, June 3rd, 7:05 PM EDT (tickets)
Jake Peavy, RHP, 1-2, 4.50 ERA vs T.J. House, LHP, 0-1, 4.05 ERA
Peavy is no longer the Cy Young award winning pitcher who won 19 games with a 2.54 ERA in 2007 and is well on his way to his worst season on record. He is walking more batters than ever before and striking out less with a career low 1.79 K/BB. His WHIP of 1.46 is also a career worst. The Indians haven't had a problem beating Peavy in the past (3.93 ERA) and now no one is having a problem beating him.
House has had one amazing game and one poor game in his first two major league starts. In each start, he has gone six innings, but the first time out against Baltimore allowed five runs while against Chicago he allowed just one. He also turned up the strike outs, going from one against the Orioles to eight against the White Sox. This game may provide a more accurate assessment of House as a pitcher as the Red Sox are a solid offense team and House seems to have found himself at the Major League level. He will also have to face quite a few above average right handed hitters including former AL MVP Dustin Pedroia and future super star, Xander Bogaerts.
Game 3: Wednesday, June 4th, 7:05 PM EDT (tickets)
Brandon Workman, RHP, 0-0, 3.24 ERA vs Corey Kluber, RHP, 6-3, 3.04 ERA
Workman will be making his second start of the year after making 20 of his first 23 appearances out of the bullpen. In his three relief appearances to start this season he allowed one run in 6.1 innings and he has continued this success as a starter, giving up five runs in 10.1 innings in his first two. He has never faced the Indians, so he may have an advantage as a new starter both to the league and the team.
Of course, that advantage could disappear as he is opposing one of the greatest pitchers in baseball, at least over the past month. Kluber leads the league with 95 strike outs and was close to setting records for the month of May. He is turning into the Indians ace and if he can continue his success, especially on the national level against Boston, he could be a contender for AL All-Star game starter. Boston manager, John Farrell, will be managing the game for the American Leaguers.
Who's Hot? – Who's Not?
While Lonnie Chisenhall and Michael Brantley are still red hot, Corey Kluber has been just about the hottest player in baseball. In his last two starts, he has thrown 14.1 innings and struck out 21. He allowed just two earned runs across the games and deservedly won both games. Kluber deserves consideration for both the player of the week for the last week in May and AL pitcher of the month for the entirety.
Scott Atchison gave up just a single run during the month of May until the last game of the month, when he gave up three against the Rockies. In his appearance before that, he didn't allow any of his own runs to score, but did blow the save in the finale against Chicago when he allowed an inherited runner to score on a single. This is not a case of a bad player continuing his poor play, but of an extremely lucky player seeing his some regression. Atchison should be back to his normal self next time out.
On Deck: The Indians have another much needed off day on Thursday before heading out to Texas for four with the Rangers.

What are you most proud of? First ever lining, it wasn't very well-made but it's the first time I sew a dress since highschool.
Looks nice. I agree about the neckline being low, but a crochet lace collar from your fabric store would fit right in over that, and make this a very classy little number. Keep on sewing...experience brings confidence.,
Wendy, it's such a pretty dress and you did a wonderful job. Homemade is best. :)

Special Report: Deficient bridges in our area, neglected & in need of repairUPDATED 4:49 PM CDT Nov 01, 2013
40/29's Ben Wagner digs through the data to find out which bridges in your area need work.Video Transcript
BRIDGES THAN ANY OTHER IN THE AREA. 40/29'S BEN WAGNER DUG THROUGH THE DATA AND FOUND OUT WHERE THOSE DAMAGED BRIDGES ARE AND HOW MUCH IT WILL COST TO GET THEM FIXED. IN ALL - 76 BRIDGES ACROSS FOUR COUNTIES ARE CLASSIFIED AS STRUCTURALLY DEFICIENT. THAT'S THE LOWEST RATING THE STATE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT RECORDS. BUT THIS 40/29 INVESTIGATION FOUND BENTON COUNTY HAS THE MOST OF ANY COUNTY IN OUR AREA. "They have been neglected over the years." THIS 58 YEAR OLD BRIDGE NEAR SILOAM SPRINGS IS ONE OF 28 STATE OR COUNTY- OWNED BRIDGES IN BENTON COUNTY NEEDING REPAIR. 7-PERCENT OF THEIR STATE OWNED BRIDGES AND 18- PERCENT OF THEIR COUNTY-OWNED BRIDGES CAUGHT INSPECTORS ATTENTION. THAT'S THE MOST OF ANY COUNTY IN THE AREA. "They have not allocated the money to do the repairs. We've been limited on the amount of money that we've had. Under my administration we are correcting that as fast as we can." THE STATE WILL FOOT THE BILL TO REPLACE THIS BRIDGE - WITH A PRICE TAG SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 7 AND 10 MILLION DOLLARS. IT'S ONE OF THE 11 BRIDGES IN BENTON COUNTY THE STATE MAINTAINS THAT NEEDS WORK. THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT LABELS THEM STRUCTURALLY DEFICIENT. Clip 2j 6238 THIS IS THE LONGEST AND ONE OF THE OLDEST COUNTY-OWNED BRIDGES IN BENTON COUNTY. ROAD CREWS WILL COMPLETELY REPLACE IT NEXT YEAR - COSTING ABOUT 1 POINT 2 MILLION DOLLARS. IT'S ONE OF FOUR THE COUNTY WILL REPLACE IN 20-14 "Bridges are expensive, especially if you design them properly. And that's what we need to do." FLOODING IN BENTON COUNTY THIS SPRING AND SUMMER TOOK OUT A NUMBER OF BRIDGES ALTOGETHER. BUT HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS SAID THEY DON'T EXPECT TO SEE A SPIKE IN DAMAGED BRIDGES THIS YEAR. IN FACT - THEY EXPECT THE NUMBER TO GO DOWN. YOU CAN SEE THE WORST RATED BRIDGES IN YOUR AREA. WE HAVE AN INTERACTIVE MAP ON OUR WEBSITE AT 4029TV DOT COM.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have signed forward Pascal Dupuis to a two-year contract extension worth a total of $3 million, an NHL source confirmed with Sporting News.
The speedy winger has found a home in Pittsburgh after coming over in the Marian Hossa trade in 2008. He's a strong penalty killer who can contribute offensively on any line. He had 17 goals last season after scoring 18 the previous year.
Dupuis was also a plus-16, the second-best total of his career. With the Penguins thinned by injuries, he averaged 16:52 of ice time in 2010-11, his highest total since the 2002-03 season in Minnesota.
"(My family and I) really love Pittsburgh. It was the only place we wanted to go," Dupuis said Tuesday.
Penguins GM Ray Shero still has work to do before free agency begins July 1. According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Shero hopes to get a deal done with Tyler Kennedy before the end of the week and carve out an agreement with Jaromir Jagr before Friday. Jagr can't officially be signed until July 1.

Howard Rumsey: The Lighthouse All Star
With the release of Ken Koenig's exhaustive, enlightening, and entertaining DVD history of a SoCal treasure, Jazz on the West Coast: The Lighthouse (RoseKing Productions, 2005), 89 year-old Howard Rumsey returns to the spotlight. Bassist, booker, and raconteur extraordinaire, Rumsey presented the best jazz shows in Los Angeles for 33 consecutive years. First with a group of studio musicians and Kenton veterans, he ran the ongoing jam and experimentation of the Lighthouse All Stars, establishing the springboard for the soon-to-be-ballyhooed "West Coast Jazz" sound.
After more than a decade of successful recording and personnel changes, Rumsey didn't feel it anymore and concentrated on booking world class jazz artists to play his waterfront dive. After another decade, he moved down the coast to the Redondo Beach Pier for his tenure at Concerts by the Sea for another ten-plus, finally bringing the curtain down on a major chapter In LA jazz. The perennial host is now the featured guest.
Despite all the focus on his past, Rumsey would rather talk about his latest night out, a UCLA tribute to Kenny Burrell, an event that drew a who's who of LA-based jazz greats, Howard's crowd. He enthused about the whole show, but especially the kids.
They had a high school band play one set, halfway through the show, he recalled. "How they got those kids warmed up, I'll never know. They decided to play 'Move,' and it was really bright. They just hit it, bang, and went right through it. Absolutely phenomenal performance. By high school kids! I just couldn't believe it. They just hit right on 'Move.' There were four soloists, and they were so professional, it was unbelievable.
"It's great to hear young people play who already have the feel, isn't it? I asked.
"There are more young players now than ever before. Many, many, many very fine young players. All the universities, colleges, junior colleges, and high schools, it's just amazing. It all goes back to the premise of a steady job. All the guys who are teaching those kids were players in big bands who settled down to take a position on a faculty in order to have a monthly pay check. There's nothing sadder than to see an old player who still plays well, scuffling and playing gigs for $25. It happens around this town. So, that's my message: a steady gig is what we all need.
Outside LA, the Lighthouse bears renown for a variety of albums recorded there through the sixties and seventies by artists like Miles Davis, Lee Morgan, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Grant Green, the Jazz Crusaders, and Elvin Jones. I asked Rumsey about recording.
I had a real fine recording set-up in there, he said. "I had an Ampex rigged in there. On slow nights I would record the group, and then on intermission, we'd all sit around and listen to it. It was a way to keep the band sharp. We did a live recording that day Miles Davis and Rolf Erickson were in the band. It wasn't very well-recorded, and it was a bunch of material that didn't seem relevant, it didn't have a very good theme. It was a quick shot, which is never any good in jazz. You can't do that.
"I went to a recording session one night. Stan Levey was working on that date that became [Stan Getz's] For Musicians Only (Verve, 1956), I went over with Stan. Norman Granz was there, and for the first forty-five minutes of that date there wasn't a note played. Nobody was even talking to each other. Norman was just sitting in the control room. That's what it took to get these guys in a mood to play. Diz was saying, "I want to do 'Dark Eyes.' So, then they did "Dark Eyes. Then, they recorded a few takes on something else. Getz, Sonny Stitt, and John Lewis were on that date, too.
"Anyway, they got two tunes done and took a break, just goofing around. Eventually they all decided they wanted to play again, and then they played. That's how Norman got the album.
"What made [Lighthouse All Star] Shorty Rogers so great in the studio, in a three hour session, you knew you were going to have the session competed. He had the ability to write this material, run it down once, and record it. He could record an album in three hours without fail. That's what the studios were looking for.
"With Norman Granz, it didn't matter. He didn't have to ask a bunch of executives how much it cost to do that.
During his time in the original Stan Kenton band, Rumsey recorded some of the first electric bass to make tape. "Rickenbacker made an electric bass. They gave one to Moses Allen with Lunceford, and they gave one to me with Stan Kenton, to endorse the instrument. You had be sold on it 100% to touch it, and you couldn't change your mind. One night in Baltimore I decided I wasn't going to play it again, so I left it in my landlady's basement and never went back for it.

Citizenship and Its Discontents: Belonging in a Global World, an interdisciplinary graduate conference at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (Saturday, March 30, 2013; abstracts 1/25/13).
Through many of its common avatars—the multinational corporation, the world wide web, universal human rights—globalization invites us to question the nation state as the exclusive or even the most fertile terrain for exercising citizenship; and yet the nation state is often the most viable addressee of the political claims of individuals and communities. Citizenship is rife with such paradoxes: it defines rights and legitimates political action but encumbers the people it benefits; it offers community membership but on the basis of exclusion; it can open up alliances across race, gender, sexuality, and class, though its history is largely one of coercive homogeneity.
For our 5th annual interdisciplinary conference, the English Graduate Organization at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst invites submissions that take up the theme of "citizenship," particularly (but not exclusively) as an arena of contradiction and contestation. For instance, how do individual and collective narratives of belonging challenge institutionalized personhood? How do disenfranchised persons and groups navigate a relationship to their state(s) given limited access to political resources? How do institutions like public education mediate between citizens and their governments? What function does an "informed citizenry" serve?
Though these questions are intended to prompt interrogation of citizenship's paradoxes and problematics, we do not want to suggest that citizenship is unredeemable. What does citizenship make possible? As scholars, educators, intellectuals, and artists who are also citizens (of our local communities and our countries as much as our higher-learning institutions), what responsibility do we have to structure our work in terms of civic engagement? To reach out to wider audiences? To connect our projects to social and political movements? More broadly, how can the humanities and social sciences cultivate civic engagement and active political participation?
Roundtable Participants: Priscilla Wald (Duke University; Past President of ASA), Nick Bromell (UMass-Amherst), and Sut Jhally (UMass-Amherst)

In the latest issue: Looking back on three decades of big stories in federal IT.
Get the full issue
Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) said agencies are missing out on younger workers because of the government's rigidity, particularly its protracted hiring process.
Since 1987, FCW has covered it all -- the major contracts, the disruptive technologies, the picayune scandals and the many, many people who make federal IT function. Here's a look back at six of the most significant stories.
A short-term funding bill is expected by Sept. 30 to keep the federal government operating through early December, but after that the options get more complicated.
The DOD is opening a new Defense Innovation Unit Experimental office in Austin, Texas, while Congress debates legislation that could defund DIUx.
A House panel approved a new IT modernization bill that appears poised to pass, but key funding questions are left for appropriators.
The Army's cyber director said cyber, electronic warfare and information operations must be integrated into warfighters' doctrine and training.

Can some one point me to links that give basic understanding on CTE and provides inputs on when to use
ROW_NUMBER() and over (partition)?
Answer 1
Basic understanding BOL (Books On Line)
Answer 2
In addition to Uri's response check
This blog has links to several other good articles on that topic.
Answer 3
CTE stands for Common Table Sub Expression.
Its like a view. But its scope is up to that query only. When writing CTE, first we will write a query and will use that query as a table in the same query.
One more version of cte is recursive queries. Some queries which write in sql 2000 using cursors or loops, u can write using recursive CTE.
There are lots of articles on internet.
Row_Number :
This function will be used to assign the Unique numbers to the rows with our custom logic.
Eg: Suppose you have a table like below. and u wants to get the top 3 maximum nos for each group.
declare @t table
groupId int,
Someval int
insertinto @t
select 10,15 unionallselect 10,115 unionallselect 10,125 unionallselect 20,145 unionallselect 30,815 unionallselect 20,4315 unionallselect 20,345 unionallselect 30,145 unionallselect 30,768 unionallselect 10,678 unionallselect 10,187 unionallselect 10,098 unionallselect 20,12 unionallselect 30,534 unionallselect 20,235 unionallselect 20,764 unionallselect 30,4535 unionallselect 30,5345
;with cte as
select *,ROW_NUMBER() over (PARTITION by GroupId orderby someVal desc) as rn from @t
select * from cte where rn <= 3
You can see that as we need the Top 3 records for each Group, "group" will go into Partition Clause,
Partition Clause will be used to specify that group combination.
Answer 4
Thanks folks for your valuable answers :)

Times have been tough. With the housing crisis, bank crisis, corporation crisis, we've certainly weathered a lot of crises lately. I've noticed a lot of rhetoric with the sentiment, "in this economy"; as in "In this economy, you can't afford to pay full price ..." and "It's tough selling your home in this economy." And lest we forget about this past summer's "staycation" campaign, which is essentially vacationing in your own town to save. So where does this leave our pets?
Surprisingly, this appears to be one area many people are digging deep to not skimp on, at least when it comes to food and essentials. According to the American Pet Products Association, Americans will spend $43.4 billion this year on their pets, which is 26-percent higher than in 2004. The trickier part is when it comes to veterinary care, where diagnostic tests and follow-up care can be costly. When your pocket book starts dictating the level of care you can provide your pet, it's never a good situation.
I am fortunate in that my flock hasn't been in need of emergency care or come down with visible signs of illness. I buy them the same brand of food they are used to, and they (along with my rabbit) still seem to consume a larger portion of fresh veggies than I do.
After assessing how the state of the economy has my hit home, I came up with two areas where perhaps the birds have felt it, too. One is shorter showers; my goal is five minutes. The other is turning off the lights. The birdroom light is now on a timer, and as a result, the flock is on a more formal schedule. Lights out by 9!
Looking back, these really aren't hardships at all. I really don't need a 15-minute shower, especially while California is undergoing a major drought. The birds prefer to be on sidelines most of the shower anyway (conure Ollie on his shower perch and cockatiel Gracie on the shower caddy). Before the light timer, their light, more often than not, was turned off when the house was locked up for the night.
Times might be challenging and the economy unpredictable, but for many of us, our pets are the one reliable beacon of comfort. This is why we would rather skip our morning coffee run than the weekly bird-toy shopping spree.
