Colin Stetson
Imagine somehow the ghost of Rahsaan Roland Kirk watching over Steve Reich at his most relentless, Oval at his most tonally beautiful and Autechre at their heaviest, but all in the form of one man breathing fiercely, spectacularly through a bass clarinet or bass saxophone, in a dark, wooden room.
Colin Stetson, the revered brass and woodwind player who has played and recorded with such greats as Arcade Fire, Tom Waits, TV on The Radio, Antibalas, Anthony Braxton, Medeski, Martin and Wood and Burning Spear has announced the forthcoming release of his latest solo full length album on Aagoo Records. Stetson's thoughtcrafty experiments in sound on the album, titled New History Warfare: Volume 1 push the boundaries of genres and the sounds that can be expected from his vast assortment of instruments, including saxophones, clarinet, flute and French horn.
For more information:
Woodwind player Colin Stetson can play powerfully while circularly breathing for long periods, can draw multiphonics out of a sax with great skill, and can command an audience's attention with his focus and melodic improvisations. Stetson was born and raised in Ann Arbor, MI, where he became proficient on assorted saxophones, clarinet, and flute. He earned a degree in music from his hometown school the University of Michigan in 1997, studying with Roscoe Mitchell, Donald Sinta, and Christopher Creviston; afterward, he went on to study with Steve Adams and Henry Threadgill as well. While still in college, he co-founded Transmission (which later became Transmission Trio), and in 1998 he played with progressive Detroit-area jazz-rockers Larval on their Knitting Factory album Larval 2. He moved to the San Francisco Bay Area that summer along with the rest of Transmission, which released its first album in 1999. Stetson also branched out to play live with the likes of Fred Frith, Peter Kowald, Ned Rothenberg, and Kenny Wollesen, and kept up his Detroit/Ann Arbor connections as well. Before moving west, he had played on his friend Recloose's debut EP for Planet E, and their collaborations continued over the years, culminating in the DJ's acclaimed full-length Cardiology in 2002. Also that year, Tom Waits tapped Stetson for reed work on his Alice and Blood Money albums, which led to significant exposure and a live performance on David Letterman. His most recent appearance with Waits has been on the soundtrack to the animated feature Shrek 2. Stetson had a limited edition 3" CD release of a 2002 performance at the Artship in Oakland, and his full-length debut as a leader came in the summer of 2003 with the quintet recording Slow Descent. Since relocating to NYC in 2004, Stetson is performing regularly with the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Jeremiah Lockwood's Sway Machinery, Zemog El Gallo Bueno, and the ever present Transmission as well as performances with Sinead O'Connor, Burning Spear and Medeski, Martin, and Wood and Anthony Braxton. www.colinstetson.com For more information.

Short Takes: A briefing of people, issues and events around the country
Mom says son who died in river was 'biggest hero'
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- The mother of a man who died in an icy South Dakota river while trying to rescue a 6-year-old boy says her son made the ultimate sacrifice.
A search boat on Saturday discovered the body of 28-year-old Lyle Francis Eagletail in the Big Sioux River. Eagletail and 16-year-old Madison Leigh Wallace died when they tried to save Madison's brother, Garrett Martin Wallace, who later emerged from the river uninjured.
Eagletail's mother, Margaret, was among about two dozen family members and friends who watched the recovery effort Saturday at Falls Park.
"I think of my son as the biggest hero. He sacrificed himself for that little child and that's the way his grandmother brought him up, with much love and respect," Margaret Eagletail told KSFY-TV.
2 killed when jet crashes in Indiana neighborhood
SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The Federal Aviation Administration said two of four people aboard a jet that crashed in a northern Indiana neighborhood died.
Authorities said the private jet was experiencing mechanical trouble when it crashed in South Bend. It struck three homes, becoming lodged in one of them.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig in Oklahoma City said two people on the plane were killed.
RNC to spend $10 million to reach minorities
WASHINGTON -- Reeling from back-to-back presidential losses and struggling to cope with the country's changing racial and ethnic makeup, the Republican National Committee plans to spend $10 million this year to send hundreds of party workers into Hispanic, black and Asian communities to promote its brand among voters who overwhelmingly supported Democrats in 2012.
Committee chairman Reince Priebus on Sunday also proposed shortening the presidential nominating calendar in 2016 and limiting the number of primary-season debates to avoid the self-inflicted damage from inside-party squabbling on the eventual nominee. Priebus' top-to-bottom changes include picking the moderators for the debates and then crowning the nominee as early as June so he or she could begin a general election campaign as quickly as possible.
Air Force trainer gets 4 years for raping trainee
SAN ANTONIO -- A military judge sentenced an Air Force instructor to four years in prison for raping a female trainee at the South Texas base where he worked.
Lt. Col. Matthew Van Dalen also sentenced Staff Sgt. Eddy Soto to a dishonorable discharge after convicting him of rape Saturday during a military trial at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland.
More than 30 Lackland instructors have been investigated in the military sex scandal. Soto was the ninth trainer convicted in the scandal and sentenced to prison or hard labor.
Van Dalen acquitted Soto on charges of aggravated sexual assault and wrongful sexual contact.
Ohio securities regulators flag investment scheme
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- State authorities are warning Ohioans about an Internet investment scheme that may be targeting religious groups.
Ohio joined 15 other states and five Canadian provinces when it issued an investor alert against Inter Reef Ltd., doing business as Profitable Sunrise, and its operators.
The Ohio Department of Commerce's Securities Division alleges the United Kingdom company and its operators -- brothers Roman and Radoslav Novak -- are engaging in securities fraud, selling securities unlicensed and selling unregistered securities through the website www.profitablesunrise.com
The site includes Bible quotations and options for donating investment returns to charity that could signal religious groups are a target.

by George Burns
He has only 13 more years to go, and there he stands on the front of his new book in an expensive red warm-up suit with a dumbbell in one hand and a half-smoked cigar in the other. The subtitle is "The Ultimate Diet, Sex and Exercise Book." But the advice plays second banana to innuendo and joking around. "Attitude is all-important," Burns writes—or, more accurately, chats. "When you're around my age you've got to keep occupied. You've got to do something that will get you out of bed. I never made a nickel in bed. Yeah, get out of bed. Find something that will make you do it—like an interest...a hobby...a business...a pretty girl—there we are back in bed again. I hope that didn't shock you. I do a lot of talking. At my age at least let me talk about it." In addition to the funny stuff there are photographs of Burns doing his daily exercises—toupé carefully in place—with three pretty models. The last chapter is a thank-you to all the people remotely connected with the book. "Last, but definitely not least," he writes, "I want to thank Phyllis Grann, my editor and publisher, who also happens to be a beautiful lady. Now that I'm working for her, I hope I can interest her in the benefits of sexual harassment." (Putnam, $11.95)

Where Do You Think You Go When You Die?

Posted 23 August 2003 - 11:47 PM
I think about death a fair bit but i always think about how i will die and what that will be like as opposed to the afterlife.
I think I am grossly desensitized when it comes to religion, the afterlife, politics...working in a bookstore, I see all the crank-pot theories and books on the topics. For example, the author Sylvia Brown(e?) has written numerous books on the topic...but they are all marketed to desperated middle aged women (you can so tell from the cover). Look here and see what i mean. The point I think I am trying to make is that anything in the media that pretains to the afterlife is bullshit. IF we have souls and IF they continue living when we die is beyond me.
Then again, it would be great if we moved on to a better place, but that gets us on the topic of heaven and hell. Sin and such. I would rather simply cease to exist than spend the rest of the afterlife in a place like hell. but I would also rather live in a better place than cease to exist. hmm...
damn dude this is deep...gotta go make some Deep 'N Delicious pizza and clear my mind...mmm delicious!

This is something that we probably wont know since we cant die and live to tell about it.
Now people always think of the good and for the better. no one here admits they want to live life at the worst possiable rate right? people always say tomorrow will be better. People have made hope for them self's all throught the existence of man kind. religion and everything else is just a thing to give people hope and keep peace in the world. As we all think of the out come of our actions. Tell me when you havnt through that "God" was watching you and you shouldnt do something because *when* I die I'll go to hell.
all of this is just hope. im not saying hope is bad and that religion is bad. (Look its been around from "God" knows when) and its still around untill today keeping some sort of peace because its in everyones mind.
this might be a little hard to understand and read
but please dont be offended by this just prove me wrong and post your point of view I didnt post this to get flamed.

Your point is valid, no one can proove you wrong. As religion, supernatural existince, etc. is merely opinion there is really no factual basis to make certain beliefs more valid that others.
Game Over.
Posted 24 August 2003 - 12:30 AM
What I mean by this is that all what we are, is because of our brain. It makes us think, feel, want, (basically your entire personality)etc..... When we die, our brain dies which is what makes us who we are.
See where I'm getting at?
Concepts such as "afterlife" was created by people who feared not existing. Afterlife makes death easier to accept.
Sad but true.

In my opinion, human belief shapes everything. If you're Christian and you believe you've lived a good life (and your God agrees with you), you go to Heaven. Likewise, if you've believed yourself to be an irredeemable sinner, you'll suffer in Hell, regardless of how your God thinks of you. It's easy to think of yourself as a good person, so your God has to confirm this before you're rewarded. However, it isn't easy to honestly believe you deserve to suffer after you die, so your God won't oppose this (except in some very specific situations).
The same applies to every religion. If you're Shinto and believe to have followed the ways of your spirit pantheon (be it a nature spirit, an ancestor spirit, or "demon"), then you join said pantheon in whatever realm it is a part of... except, of course, you wish to be rewarded for a life of sin, whereas you'll get only suffering. (Confusing? Blame it on LSD! )
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'll rot in the ground when I die. In the end, as long as the Cycle is preserved and I get my due reward/punishment, I have nothing to complain about, even if it's banishment to a sort of Oblivion.

Recently my uncle passed away at the age of 47 (2months now). He passed from a massive stroke. Unfortunatley it damaged his brain to the point where he could not breathe on his own. It was very unfortunate.
A month before this happened, we celebrated the First Communion of his son. My mom and my uncle were talking. He asked her if she ever has dreams. She answered yes, and he asked what kind of dreams. Later he went on to tell her that lately he has been having dreams with many deceased family members. He told her about my grandfather, and grandmother. Also about my grandfather's brother. In life, they were all close. But it was odd that he was having these dreams, and didn't know why he was having them.
So as I said, a month later he had died.
So the point of this story? Enjoy life. You never know when you will die.

More than a hour after Apple's latest cell phone went on sale Friday morning, a line of nearly 100 people wrapped around AT&T's building at 6605 W. Interstate 40.
3G iPhone upgrades
Apple says the new iPhone downloads Web pages, iTunes music and other data twice as fast as the original using third-generation mobile phone networks.
Features GPS technology
Available for $199 for the 8-gigabyte model and $299 for the 16GB model with a two-year contract with AT&T Wireless.
Existing AT&T subscribers can buy the new iPhone for $399 (8GB) or $499 (16GB). Both options require a new two-year service agreement.
AT&T will offer a no-contract-required option for $599 (8GB) or $699 (16GB).
Calling plans for the phone will start at $39.99 per month, plus $30 for unlimited data - a $10 increase from the cheapest plan for the first-generation iPhone.
For an in-depth video walkthrough of the iPhone 3G's features, see www.apple.com/ iphone/guidedtour
Source: The Associated Press
Inside, 15 store associates were busy registering and selling much-anticipated 3G iPhones to those eager enough to stand in line for hours before the store opened.
Improved technology makes the 3G iPhone more than twice as fast as the original, and it has a cheaper price tag than the original iPhone carried at launch. Some customers can buy the new 3G version starting at $199.
Store manager Dan Matsler said the I-40 location sold out by 11 a.m. The AT&T store at 5752 W. Amarillo Blvd. sold out of its 40 phones before 10 a.m., manager Travis Green said.
"From the reports I've seen, you're not going to find one in a retail location," Green said. "Actually, I think we were busier today than the original iPhone launch."
The first customer began waiting at the AT&T store on I-40 about 8:30 last night. There was a "pretty good little group" outside the store when Matzler came to work about 6 a.m., he said.
David Allee waited nearly an hour outside the store on I-40 for a chance to buy his iPhone. He said he was the 18th person in line.
"At one point, we had to go out there and mention to people it didn't look like we were going to have enough for them today," Matsler said.
Users had to wait hours Friday for their new phones to start working.
A spokesman for AT&T, the exclusive iPhone service provider in the United States, said that a global problem prevented Apple's iTunes servers from being fully activated in-store. Instead, buyers were told to go home and perform the last step by connecting their phones to their computers, spokesman Michael Coe said.
The problem extended to owners of the previous iPhone model. A software update released for that phone on Friday morning required it to be reactivated through iTunes.
Matsler said customers can reserve a phone that will be shipped within seven to 10 days. The store should also get more phones shipped in the next day or two. Some customers can buy a phone for as low as $199 with a two-year contract. AT&T phone service starts at $70 a month.

Langston Galloway looked at the numbers and winced.
St. Joseph's coach Phil Martelli showed his players their previous six-game totals and it wasn't pleasant reading for Galloway, the junior guard and second-team all-Atlantic Ten choice last season.
So Galloway took the numbers to heart and scored a season-high 26 points as St. Joseph's defeated George Washington, 71-59, on Saturday in a key A-10 game at Hagan Arena.

WASHINGTON - President Clinton has released 11 members of a Puerto Rican terrorist organization, the Armed Forces of National Liberation (the FALN), who were convicted in the 1980s of numerous felonies against the United States, including conspiracy. In return for clemency, the members, who had sentences ranging from 35 to 90 years and all of whom have served less than 20 years of their prison sentences, had to renounce terrorist acts and vow never again to engage in such violent activity.
Eleven of the 16 prisoners who were offered this conditional clemency have accepted it and are now free. A few others denied the offer, stating they have problems with the idea of contrition and restrictions on their activities outside prison. The president has agreed to reduce the sentences of two of those who did not accept clemency, including Oscar Lopez-Rivera, one of the leaders of the FALN who was convicted in 1987 of plotting to escape from prison with guns, explosives and a helicopter. I strongly oppose the president's decision.
The FALN is a militant terrorist organization that has claimed responsibility for bombing about 130 civilian, political and military sites throughout the United States between 1974 and 1983, resulting in six deaths and injuring at least 60 others. Several victims were police officers who have been maimed or crippled for life. Although the FALN admits it conducted these heinous and cowardly bombings, the White House maintains that none of the 16 people offered clemency was directly involved in any deaths or injuries. However, since the incarceration of these convicted terrorist leaders, there have been no bombings in the United States by this group.
I am opposed to what appears to be a politically motivated offer and am outraged that President Clinton would send such an alarming signal to the rest of the world that the United States is soft on terrorism. This offer flies in the face of the unanimous opinion of law enforcement that these militants belong behind bars and is incredibly insulting and offensive to the families of those who were injured, maimed or killed.
Congress recently passed H.Con.Res.180, with strong bipartisan support, which expressed the sense of Congress that President Clinton should not have offered clemency to these members of the FALN. I supported this resolution, because I believe convicted terrorists should not be freed. The resolution notes that none of these militants contested evidence presented against them or ever expressed remorse for their actions. It also asserts that the president's decision sends an unmistakable message that the United States does not punish terrorism to the full extent of the law, thus making future terrorist acts more likely and further endangering American lives.
The conditional offer of clemency was made, despite numerous files of opposition by law-enforcement officials including the FBI, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, and the United States Attorneys in Illinois and Connecticut who prosecuted the terrorists. Reports also have indicated that the Bureau of Prisons has recordings of the conversations of the inmates in which they plotted to use violence again.
Why did President Clinton decide to grant this unique group clemency? Prior to this recent proposal, Clinton has granted clemency only three times during his presidency, out of 3,000 other cases considered. Of the two that have been granted, one was a case of perjury and the other a pardon for marijuana usage.
The White House would like for you to believe that all or almost all of the militants had, prior to this week's statement, expressed regret for these actions and had renounced violence. These claims are, in fact, false. In a joint statement made by the prisoners to Congress in 1997, the prisoners rationalized their terror campaign as "a just cause, seeking to end colonialism" and that the FALN had "a right under international law to use all means available." Although two of the prisoners have renounced their past willingness to use violence and have rejected using violence in the future, none of the 16 convicted terrorists have ever expressed remorse for the bombings or apologized to the families of those murdered.
The White House would also like for you to believe that these terrorists did not have anything to do directly with these killings. These people were leaders and core members of the FALN who, as a group, conducted a terror campaign that murdered innocent people and injured people who were merely trying to uphold the law. It is close to impossible for a person to carry out a campaign such as this without some sort of help from outside sources. These prisoners might be accomplices or "worker bees," but simply because they did not pull the trigger does not give them the right to go free.
If you are a terrorist and you kill Americans, then you should be punished to the full extent of the law. We must uphold our commitment to the rule of law and denounce the violence that terrorism inflicts. This offer of clemency is misguided and is just plain wrong. It sends the wrong message to Americans as well as to the rest of the world. We must not abandon the victims and their families simply for politics.

South Miami, Florida
Donald J. Sobol, (born Oct. 4, 1924, Bronx, N.Y.—died July 11, 2012, South Miami, Fla.) American author who captivated millions of young readers with his Encyclopedia Brown mystery series, in which the 10-year-old detective Leroy ("Encyclopedia") Brown, aided by his pal Sally Kimball, applies his brilliant observational and deductive skills to crime solving in small-town Idaville, Fla. Each of the 29 stand-alone books—from Encyclopedia Brown: Boy Detective (1963) to Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Soccer Scheme (2012)—consisted of several mystery stories (most often 10), with the solutions provided only at the end of the book, which Sobol believed would encourage children to solve the case on their own. The series was adapted for television in 1989. Sobol attended Oberlin (Ohio) College (B.A., 1948), and served in the Army Corps of Engineers during World War II. He worked as a newspaper reporter for the New York Sun and the Long Island Daily Press, and in the late 1950s he started writing "Two-Minute Mysteries," a fiction column. Sobol penned more than 80 fiction and nonfiction books altogether. He received an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America in 1976 for the Encyclopedia Brown series.

Skip to comments.Secretary of State Hillary Clinton admitted to hospital with blood clot following concussion
Posted on 12/30/2012 5:04:06 PM PST by MinorityRepublican
WASHINGTON (AP) Secretary of State Hillary Clinton admitted to hospital with blood clot following concussion.
(Excerpt) Read more at sfgate.com ...
Well if the BBC story about this is right, I guessed wrong. If they are treating her with " blood thinners" definitely NOT a Subdural.
Yep, she is going to die, and then comes judgment.
Tim Russert had just returned from someplace, too.
Me, too, but it now appears that Hussein is more important in the organization, and the Xlintons less, than I believed.
Under hubby there was arkancide.
Now under Bamby there is the Chicago Way
DVTs are now treated as an outpatient problem. No need for IV heparin anymore. Fractionated heparin sub q injections.
Me, too, but it now appears that Hussein is more important in the organization, and the Xlintons less, than I believed
I think I underestimated the value of the racial divide in the demise of the country. No one does racial tension and division better than The Community Organizer.
I awoke in the hospital with a dime sized hole drilled in my skull and a clear plastic drain tube inserted into my brain where packing had been inserted to soak up the blood. For a week, I watched the blood and brain fluid as it traveled down the clear plastic drain tube and collected in a clear plastic bag pinned to the breast pocket of my hospital gown.
Several times a day, a nurse would come in, remove the plastic bag full of blood and brain fluid, pour the blood/fluid into a measuring cup, carefully record the amount of fluid collected, then she would pour the blood/fluid down the drain, and I would say to myself, "Well, there goes old what's his name."
It will soon be seven years since this accident, and I have, so far, made a complete recovery. If I had waited until the blood clotted in my brain before I was treated, as Hillary Clinton just did, I don't think my recovery would have been as complete as it has been.
Well, there's some craziness.
"Reines says Clinton is being treated with anti-coagulants."
Isn't that how they kill vampires?
She's already done the amnesia thing in sworn testimony, hasn't she?
Perhaps she threw an ashtray at Bubba again, and it boomeranged back, and hit her in the head.
WOW! Curiouser and curiouser.
The media told us that Price committed suicide. I never bought that line for one second.
That's true.Another possibility is that if there was,in fact,some sort of head injury a subdural or epidural hematoma could have resulted.I'm not sure of how quickly the onset is seen but I did work in an ER for some time so I have some familiarity with such issues...but certainly not *great* familiarity.
Isnt that how they kill vampires?
How ironic:
White House has no comment as of now either.
Perhaps because the puppet masters have seen that racism works better than sexism. That it is easier for racists to get away with sexist acts than for sexists to get away with racist acts.
The Hildabeast started her downward course MORE than 30 years ago!
No nothing now either.
Did you see #158?
Blood clot? Where? in her leg? her head? her heart?
The heparin would prevent further clots, but won't get rid of this one.
Just by looking at her, I can tell this woman really does not take the best care of herself. She is overweight and all the traveling can make her prone to DVT's as well.
Lady needs to slow down.
Conniving and swindling people your entire life takes a toll on anyone. Hillary Clinton is 65 but looks 75. Bill Clinton is 66 but looks 76. She'll also NEVER testify on what she knows about Benghazi.
Blood clot? Where? in her leg? her head? her heart?
The heparin would prevent further clots, but won't get rid of this one.
Just by looking at her, I can tell this woman really does not take the best care of herself. She is overweight and all the traveling can make her prone to DVT's as well.
Lady needs to slow down.
Your comment reminded me of David Asman of Fox (Business) News. Back in 2005, he and his wife had flown to London. She had gone down to the hotel's gym, to get in a little exercise before they went out for the evening. She ended up having a stroke, and I believe it was from her sitting on the plane for the flight overseas. He wrote an opinion article for the Wall Street Journal about their experience with the British healthcare system, but unfortunately, it's no longer available at the link provided in the FR thread from that time.
That is what I was thinking also.
Here is Asman's story-—
There is a lot of speculation that Putin has cancer. Reuters has mentioned poor health months ago.
It could be that Hillary has it - that is pure speculation based on nothing.
"Is there any limit to the sh*t they are going to shovel down our throats?"
maybe this has been answered, i'll keep scrolling.
why would a dr. clear her for flying after a serious concussion?
I don't care who you are, that's funny right there. I laughed hard enough to snort beer through my nose and scare the catz.
I hope she recovers ASAP.
Really? Wow, that's a nice improvement over cooling your heels in a hospital bed. I was on Lovenox for several weeks as well...nasty little things. To be honest, I wouldn't wish a clot on Hillary or anyone else.
If she ever testifies then she is going to say "I don't Recall". And no one will be allowed to argue.
"Blood clot? Where? in her leg? her head? her heart?"
The NBC News link on Drudge states that the doctors initially report that she may have DVT or Deep Vein Thrombosis or Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis IN HER LEGS resulting from periods of inactivity during her recovery from the concussion
Not life-threatening, just needs to be resolved with anti-coagulants and rest.
NO REASON for her NOT to testify, IMHO.
Thanks for finding that!!
An awful lot of stuff ends up working out to be very convenient for this guy..or should I say, for the agenda of whoever is pulling his strings.
this crash story originated from Sorcha Faal. IMO, worse than Debka.
Something funny has been going on with Hillary - could be real or could be fake.
Probably will never know the truth - even if she croaks - since it could be death by Chicago Style.
I think she is brain Damaged and could never be President. GO RAND PAUL!!
There is a category of true evil in this world -— Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao, Castro, serial murders. We can actually be relieved, if not actually happy, with their demise. Then there is another category. Someone for whom we do not wish their demise but who will engender no empathy from us. The evil that is Hillary is in the second category. She personally has done so much damage to so many people in her quest for power. I know it is not very Christian, but she gets no empathy from me.
Well, if it's all true and the blood clot did in fact happen (unfortunately), then I hope and pray that Mrs Clinton (or her faithful assistant Huma Abedin) reads this thread, there is so much scientific and medical expertise expressed disinterestedly and generously here, that, added up, it could save Secretary's of State life.
Subdural and epidural hematomas are most emphatically not treated with anticoagulants
I put Obama in the category of Stalin. If he isn't the Anti Christ he is the precursor.
Just so you know, the disposal of the drug containers that Warfarin and its generic, Coumadin, are dispensed in are considered hazardous waste. They require hazardous waste management.
I said something like your first sentence just now to my mom when I herd of this.

WASHINGTON - General manager Paul Holmgren says he will upgrade the Flyers' defense if the right deal comes along. He is running out of time.
The trade deadline is Wednesday at 3 p.m., and the Flyers could use some help on their back end.
Winnipeg's Dustin Byfuglien, the Islanders' Andrew MacDonald, Buffalo's Christian Ehrhoff, and Dallas' Trevor Daley are among the defensemen reportedly available.
Byfuglien is the most intriguing.
Listed as 6-foot-5 and 265 pounds (though there are reports he is much heavier), Byfuglien is a rare double threat, someone who can play defense or be used as a winger. He has had turnover problems on defense, but he is a crease-clearer - one of the Flyers' big needs - and he has a wicked shot from the point.

Isobel's Chalkboard Cobble Hill Kitchen
this recent House Tour. The rental kitchen did need a little creative love, though, so Isobel painted several walls, including the kitchen backsplash, in black chalkboard paint and hung a pot rack above her stove that her mom helped her build. It's made out of a curtain rod and S hooks, and while it cost only a few dollars to build, it has apparently lasted through many apartment moves!

Recap: 'Fringe' - 'Welcome to Westfield'
A trip to a small Vermont town yields one of the strongest hours of the season
Let's not bury the lede: I quite liked this week's episode of "Fringe." Sorry, should I have told you to sit down first? Apologies. I was in a rush to ensure you didn't pick up your pitchforks before settling in. Do I think "Welcome to Westfield" solved the show's problems? Heck no. Problems a-plenty are lurking around each corner. But this was a solid, speedy hour that promised some forward momentum on a topic that's been stalled for so long it's almost as if David Robert Jones set up a series of amphilicite-powered devices around its perimeter.
So why did I enjoy this hour, even if I'm still not sold on the season? Three reasons…
1) A single episode is the most important unit of television measurement.
It's fun to look at a season or a series as a whole and make judgments upon those. But there's a fundamental difference in reading a 22-chapter book and watching a 22-episode television season. Chapters and episodes have to achieve different things. Both contribute to the whole, but an episode of television can, and should, be entertaining for an hour in and of itself. If the entire point of an episode is simply to weave the larger story in play, then there's a good chance it might fail. Something has to start, progress, and end within a single episode in order to be viable. Not everything need be solved in that discreet timeframe, but there should be a sense that we've finished something even if we're heading towards something much larger.
And, as a Stephen King fan, I enjoyed the heck out of the "creepy isolated New England town" vibe of this episode. I obviously have no idea of the homage was intentional. Had this taken place in Maine, not Vermont, I'd take it as a given. But I couldn't help but think of novels such as "The Tommyknockers" and "Under the Dome" while watching this week's episode. The locals didn't really have much color, something that's a staple in King's work. But King also has a thousand pages to draw these denizens. "Fringe" had 45 minutes of air time. It's forgivable, if unfortunate. But fortunately…
2) The episode's mystery tied into the season's mystery.
"One Night in October" and "And Those We've Left Behind" worked, insomuch as they did, due to a strong correlation between the timey-wimey stuff in play on "Fringe" and the emotional stakes of its characters. Unfortunately, those characters weren't our central players. This means that guest stars had to provide emotional catharsis in lieu of our core protagonists. As much as I enjoyed Stephen Root and real-life wife Romy Rosemont manipulative time and space in order to maintain their fragile connection, I would rather have seen Walter try and find Peter, or Peter rekindle his romance with Olivia.
Unfortunately, the show has attempted to provide obstacles for those attempts by staving off any possibility these people could even attempt such a reunion. For a while, Peter was little more than a faint memory. Once he returned, he was a stranger touting nonsense in the eyes of those he loved. Recently, all parties have been under the assumption that Peter is in the wrong universe.
"Welcome To Westfield" did a few smart things to tweak these nagging problems. First and foremost, it gave Walter a reason to perhaps not want Peter to go "home," wherever that might be. The build from this Walter being terrified of seeing Peter to now preemptively making him breakfast-for-dinner has been well-handled. I don't like that this Walter is different from the one from seasons past, but I am not so blind as to ignore the fact that this relationship has been carefully built this season. It doesn't cure the central ailment of this season's conceit, but it makes the pain infinitely more tolerable.
Secondly, it made the odd event of the week directly tied into the fourth season's central premise: that worlds forced apart have a weird way of coming back together again. Just like the cars along the road were magnetized as a result of Jones' devices, so too are the realities undone by The Observers stubbornly clinging to each other. "Forced Perspective" tried to pull this off, through the girl who could predict deaths through her drawings, but never managed to truly connect her with Olivia in anything but a superficial way. In its prime, "Fringe" could construct a case that had emotional resonance with its main characters in its sleep. Now? We have to rejoice when they rekindle that ability.
But the other smart thing that "Welcome to Westfield" did leads into my third point…
3) The episode finally gave a sense of momentum towards resolving this season's amberverse.
How the show solves this conundrum is something I won't even dwell upon. I honestly don't care. A lot of you noted last week that the show dropped a huge bombshell in its final moments by insinuating that the "amberverse" is just the old version of reality altered. I didn't realize there WAS another option, quite frankly, but it speaks more to my own disinterest rather than anything else. Maybe people have been raging on and on and what version of reality we've been in this season. I've just been raging on and on about the characters I once loved being ripped from the show.
Regardless of how this all ends up, at least "Fringe" seemed to indicate this week that it's ready to put the metaphorical pedal to the metal in terms of moving towards resolution. I'm not sure anyone was supposed to be surprised by the solution to the Westfield problem, but I'm also fairly confident we the audience were supposed to understand long before Olivia and the Bishop Boys did. Knowing that personalities were bleeding between realities gave a sense that something was actually going to start changing on the show, and that excitement alone overcame the oddness of me actually being ahead of the show's mysteries for once. (In general, if I can see the resolution to a mystery on TV, it's not a good mystery. I am TERRIBLE at predicting these things.)
But while Olivia, Walter, and Peter assume the personalities are bleeding through from Over There in their reality, I assumed personalities were actually bleeding through from Over Here in the "real" reality, the one that existed before Peter went into the machine. I assume that due to Olivia suddenly acting like the Olivia from the first three seasons: she remembers the pair as lovers, she remembers the events from Season 2's "Johari Window," and in the show's climatic moments, is going through her usual date night routine with Peter. Did her transformation start before she went to Vermont? Does it have anything to do with the injections that Nina has been giving her? Do I remotely care? Nope. All I know is that things are moving forwards, as opposed to being stuck in neutral. I'll let the show take me along for the ride, especially if "Welcome to Westfield" also welcomes the start of a season I might actually start enjoying.
What did you think of "Welcome to Westfield"? If you've been unhappy with the season, did it turn you around? If you've been happy already, did this augment or hinder your enjoyment? Is Olivia "back", for a lack of a better word, or will we see this version disappear sooner rather than later? Sound off below!

Digital Humanities Luxembourg (DHLU) 2013 - Reading historical sources in the digital age
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
The Centre Virtuel de la Connaissance sur l'Europe (CVCE), together with the Jean Monnet Chair in History of European Integration (University of Luxembourg, FLSHASE) and its research programme 'Digital Humanities Luxembourg' — DIHULUX (research unit Identités-Politiques-Sociétés-Espaces (IPSE)) — and the University of Luxembourg's Master's in Contemporary European History, are pleased to organise the DHLU Symposium 2013.
After the inaugural DHLU Symposium in 2009 that focused on 'Contemporary history in the digital age' and a second edition which tackled the methodological and theoretical implications of considering websites as primary sources (March 2012), this third edition will focus on the use of online thematic research corpora.
Given that more and more sources for contemporary history are being made available online as digital research corpora — as on the CVCE's site — and following on from the first two editions which examined the methods used to develop these sources, this third edition of Digital Humanities Luxembourg will focus on the various ways in which this material is used by humanities researchers, particularly contemporary historians and more specifically specialists in European integration.
The Symposium will be structured around the following research clusters, but may also include other related approaches:
Distant/close reading — Data retrieval, analysis and visualisation As increasing quantities of historical data are published on the web, the prospect of making simple use of these data — i.e. reading PDFs on screen or printing them out to read on paper — is becoming increasingly less realistic and methodologically sustainable. What options are open to researchers, and what are the concomitant methodological issues? This cluster will cover various themes, including: (big) data, text mining and semantic analysis, quantitative data approaches, network analysis, data visualisation (including GIS), and more generally the links between distant and close readings.
Community reading
Several online digital thematic collections, and more generally many online services available for research, offer users the possibility of registering, and sometimes of working together with other researchers, either directly or indirectly. This can lead to a collaborative and interactive reading of historical sources. Moreover, given the proliferation of these collections, what challenges and opportunities exist for cooperation and interoperability between communities? What consequences will this have on the way we currently conduct research in the humanities?
Writing history & Assessing scholarship
Once researchers begin to use digital thematic collections, will it change the way they write history? This cluster will include practical papers (e.g. on how to cite digital resources) as well as more theoretical ones. It will also embrace issues relating to the validity and quality of data and research outputs based on digital thematic collections, as well as the evaluation of those collections as a new kind of online scholarly publication.
We welcome papers focusing on digital humanities and social sciences from researchers and scholars at all stages of their careers. Papers examining cases related to European integration studies (EIS) are especially encouraged. Abstracts (max. 500 words), submitted together with a short CV (max. 250 words) and a list of publications, can be written in English or French and should be sent to the following contact email address, which can also be used for any enquiries: frederic [point] clavert [at] cvce [point] eu
The authors of the selected proposals will be invited to present their contributions in French or English at the DHLU Symposium 2013, to be held in Luxembourg, and their papers will be published in the Symposium proceedings (only English versions of the revised full papers will be accepted for publication). Participation costs will be covered up to a set limit.
Deadline for proposals: 30 June 2013
