There is a big bed (approx. 160 x 200 cm), a chest of drawers, an armchair and a cupboard, in the back bedroom. You get in the bathroom with shower, toilet and basins from the corridor. You also come from the corridor onto the terrace of which you have a wonderful look over Berlin and can enjoy terrific sunset primarily.
The suite is part of a two-storied attic apartment. Both floors have to be independently entered by each other by an entrance of their own but by a spiral staircase in conjunction with each other. I live in the lower floor with my 19-year-old daughter. Like this it is possible to be completely self-sufficient and for himself but also to have a little family contact, if you liked this.
Attention allergy sufferers: There is a cat in the house!
Everything into foot proximity, bars, restaurants, theaters, clubs, cafés, subway and bus! I am very pleased to be allowed to welcome you as my guests soon!
숙소규정Please close the windows before you leave the apartment.
Please don't smoke inside. There is an ashtray on the balcony.

Can really recommend this place. Nice and quiet flat but with full action just around the corner in the best area of Berlin. Loved it!
We enjoyed our stay at Alex's flat! She is a very nice person and was very helpful to us.
Some facts you should know about this flat :
1. Its on the 6th floor without elevator ! :) which could be quite tiring after long Berlin nights :)
2. The apartment is not entirely independent/neither is the balcony !(Its a duplex and you are on the second floor) Well even though we did not have any problems with it, there is is a door that you can not close on keys yourself.
3. There is no sink in the kitchen so you may have to wash your morning coffee cup in the bathroom ( bathroom and toilet are not separated)
4. If its sunny it gets really hot in the apartment
5. The district is nice.. Nearby you can find some nice bars/cafes.
6. Anyway It's a nice flat and you can enjoy the balcony in sunny days
Apartment was as described, clean, but it's a renovated attic, you can hear talks from host's apartment though it's very quiet in the night, access to the balcony is not private. Definitely worth €48 / night.
Everything was ok, I can recommended this place! The apartment is located in the heart of the Kreuzberg district. You have any problem to find shops and restaurants around. It is good that the apartment is quite. We were walking to the center of the city.
Really nice place in the center of Berlin. Next to Oranienstrasse where there are a lot of bars, resaurants and little (vintage)shops.
The appartment gives you all the privacy need, and is quite big. You can go for this one.
Our stay in Berlin was fantastic thanks to the host and the place we stayed at. Everything was so easy. We had our own penthouse -alike appartment with view over berlin and in a quit yard, although it was in the middle of Kreuzberg. It was a great place and it is absolutely not the last time we have stayed here! A warm recommendation to all who wants something different than a kommercialised hotel.
Ein schönes, helles Appartement mit Altbaucharme und Morgensonne. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Besonders angenehm habe ich empfunden, dass man keinerlei Straßenlärm hört. Die Kommunikation mit Alex im Vorfeld hat super geklappt, ebenso die Schlüsselübergabe.
Gerne wieder!

Chen is just amazing, well done to him huge, huge score.
I don't find it in myself to hype him though, not yet. He's so talented, but so tiny... he still hasn't hit the big growth spurt (which is just normal of course, considering he's 13) and nobody knows how growing up will affect his skating: look at what happened to Hino. Shoma Uno, who's almost 15 and even shorter than Nathan, is in the same situation. We'll see in a few years.
I forgot Kovtun was even participating in the JGP this season. He is the best possibility. So strange how one system can produce such huge progress in ladies and just the opposite mens.
If that mental capacity holds up, no matter what physical challenges come I have a feeling that he'll overcome. Hope his coach is smart though and paces his training and practice regime so that he doesn't accumulate wear and tear injuries too early in his career. I have a feeling that he's a practice beast and hope it doesn't result in career- derailing injury.
But wow- my hat off to him. I want to be Nathan when I grow up.
BTW, I just noticed that they have him on Team B already on Team USA. Kudos!

We have two monsters in this event, Chen and Radionova. WOW.
WOW again for Nathan. He skates like a Senior, just small in size but big in attitude. He resembles Kurt Browning the most to my eyes, in his body and movements. PCS are great but he still needs deeper (held) edges and power to compare to the top Men, Senior Men that is. Imagine what a little growth can do for him! Definitely the future for the US Men skating, or US figure skating period.
WOW!!! Nathan Chen is better then half the senior men! Good for him! What a great program.
Wowwwww! Nathan Chen! Huge scores!!!

Hi everyone,
I'm a newly registered user to TDH and this is my first post (don't worry, no home made mando underpants on sale here) and I was looking for some suggestions from such and illustrious group.
In a couple of weeks I'm heading to the ski-slopes (its winter here in the southern-hemisphere) and I had the idea of the century - albeit alcohol induced. I've begun converting my earliest (and least valuable) set of Boba armour for use on the slopes. Hopefully this will win me the costume prize for the trip (its a uni/college trip) and allow me to bask in the free alcohol that ensures.
My question is: What kind of modifications do people suggest I could make to
1) make it look more like a extreme-climate suit
2) not detract hugely from Boba's style (keep in mind that this is still essentially going to be Boba not a custom)
At the moment Im thinking of scrapping the gauntlets and jet pack ( I know, but they restrict movement somewhat) and adding some thigh and shin armour.
Please people, your thoughts?
Note: In case I didn't make it clear, I AM going to ski in this. I'm a pretty flash skier but even still, I'll restrict myself the easy/intermediate runs.

California record-setting heat starting to ease
November 6, 2012
LOS ANGELES (AP) – A fall heat wave is starting to ease after setting record highs throughout California.
Monday's 94 in downtown Los Angeles tied an 1898 record for the date and the 93 at Long Beach Airport was 3 degrees above a 1976 high.
Downtown Oakland had 84, seven degrees higher than the previous record of 1976. San Francisco Airport's 79 beat a 1993 record by a degree.
El Cajon's 95 broke the 2006 record of 91.
Records also were set in Santa Rosa, Redwood City, San Jose and the Central Valley.
National Weather Service meteorologist Todd Hall says a high-pressure ridge is weakening and moving east so temperatures will cool through the week, with showers possible beginning Thursday night.
However, he says hot spells could continue on and off through January.

For more information, please contact the Director of the Women's Studies Program: Dr. Alva V. Cellini firstname.lastname@example.com
(716) 375-2466
Plassmann Hall G7
The Women's Studies Program engages the study of women's issues in an effort to promote the appreciation of human differences. Through the prism of a woman's perspective, matters of gender, race, ethnicity and class are explored.
The program's aim is to develop interdisciplinary research and critical thinking among students by raising feminist questions regarding the exclusionary functions of existing knowledge.
This will be accomplished by offering a range of courses from a variety of disciplines that address women's influence and involvement in family, history, literature, politics, religion, psychology, law, business, medicine, philosophy, art, education and the economy.
The larger goal of this program coincides with that of the field of Women's Studies: to restructure our thinking about society at large by developing new perspectives and transforming traditional disciplines.
Students who take Women's Studies tend to do so for one of two reasons. The first is that they find a perspective available in our courses that is not readily found in others. Our students want to know the side of a story that is at most only hinted at in other courses.
They find it with us, and often express their surprise that more of the female side of the story is not more generally known. So our students are, simply put, curious to know more.
The other reason students tell us they take our courses is that they want more variety of coursework than is found in their traditional major. Because Women's Studies is interdisciplinary, students are encouraged to take courses that center on women, but do so from a wide variety of perspectives.
So they can take a business, journalism, literature or sport course and find those all within our program. It broadens them even while they simultaneously remain focused on one issue -- women.
In summary, Women's Studies offers a different approach for some of our more inquisitive students.

Didn't see any other bees following her and didn't see her while looking through the rest of the hive.....any chance she'll fly back if it was her? I lost "her" in the air. Kind of wierd for this time of year no?

...Or other hybrid bees for that matter.
If you get Buckfasts going in your operation, how do you maintain them over generations without losing vigor? I'm under the impression that it's different than other types of bees. Is that correct?
Clearly I don't know much about it. What can you tell me?

In December 2009, Colombian prosecutors ordered the preventative detention of a paramilitary commander, Jose Ruben Pena Tobon, in connection with the slaying. Pena was sentenced to an eight-year term in 2012 on an unrelated charges.
Bogotá, July 1, 2002—The owner of a radio station, who recently had alerted the public to the presence of paramilitary fighters in the region, was shot and killed in northeastern Colombia.
Efraín Varela Noriega, owner of Radio Meridiano70, was driving home from a university graduation in Arauca Department on the afternoon of June 28 when gunmen yanked him from his car and shot him in the face and chest, said Col. Jorge Caro, acting commander of Arauca's police.
Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:
1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.
2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.
3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.

I was out on a job site last week for an upcoming Pool & Spa News story. The two-man crew was installing a solar heating system. You'll read all about the install in a coming edition of the magazine. But I saw something that day that applies equally well to anything a pool tech would do.
As I watched the men work and listened to their banter, there was a phrase I never heard: "That's good enough." Nothing was good enough—it was either done right, or it wasn't done at all. There were several opportunities where one or the other of the techs could have taken a shortcut. The integrity of the installation wouldn't have been affected; the homeowner never would've known the difference. But these techs went the extra mile to ensure that the job was done completely and the job was done right.
That's a trait I've seen in most of the pool techs I've been around. Techs know their name is on the business, and they make sure the work is done professionally and correctly. It's attitudes like this that make the pool business a great industry to be involved in.

Like tens of thousands of young Americans who came of age during World War II, I first saw the world through military travel. San Diego seemed the loveliest city I could imagine, even with its harborfront camouflaged for war and Japanese mini-subs prowling offshore. Netting soared over highways and the Convair aircraft plant. The sidewalks thronged with young men and women in Navy blue and Marine Corps green, phoning family and friends, pledging devotion, and promising to get home soon. Far too many never did.
When the war ended, I saw no reason to leave this hospitable harbor town. My parents in North Carolina were astonished by my decision. How could I explain to them that San Diego seemed startlingly absorbed with pleasure and innovation? Or that I was enchanted with the city's graceful hills and its oases of palm trees, with soil held in place by a spiky succulent called ice plant? And sandy beaches hidden among seacliffs? All-year gardens were draped with gaudy blooms of bougainvillea and Christmas-red poinsettias. The Mexican influence was alluring. I adopted carnitas and cerveza. Tijuana, 17 miles to the south, was that era's Las Vegas, attracting gamblers and racing fans from Hollywood.
San Diego grew rapidly following World War II. Yet its mood remained that of a small town until the rise of the University of California at San Diego in the 1960s. High-tech research teams arrived. In this optimistic haven, it seemed easy to attract prominent scientists. Jonas Salk, at the pinnacle of celebrity after announcing the polio vaccine, deserted Manhattan and retained the architect Louis Kahn to build his monumental laboratory on a La Jolla cliff. One day as we walked around that campus, I asked Salk why he had come West. He looked out to sea and said, "I see San Diego as an empty canvas on which to paint my dreams."
These days, San Diego is a confident city, no longer waiting to be discovered. Its position at the southwest corner of the United States was long regarded as a handicap. Now it is seen as a novelty, a business and tourist enticement; it is a reasonably safe and comfortable city along one of the busiest international borders in the world. Natural crises such as wildfires seem only to accentuate the sense of community. It is where I know I am at home.

i say keep maybe he do some extra work to get his leg strength up if 3-5 more yards out of his leg that would be even better.
Worst field goal percentage in the division under 50 yards in 2012:
Lawrence Tynes:
<50 - 32/36 - 89%
50+ - 1/3 - 33%
Dan Bailey:
<50 - 26/26 - 100%
>50 - 3/5 - 60%
Kai Forbath
<50 - 16/17 - 94%
50+ - 1/1 - 100%
Alex Henry:
<50 - 27/30 - 90%
50+ - 0/1 - 0%
I dont trust him, and I never have. The guy just inexplicably misses what are basically chip shots sometimes, and I even recall him missing a couple of XP's along the way. This season alone, didn't he miss from 26-ish? Even I could have kicked that damn thing through.
Cant hang your hat on what he did in those past games. While I'll always be grateful for those winning kicks, the Giants can certainly do better
Tynes is average at best. But if there were lots of great kickers waiting in the wings, Mason Crosby and David Akers wouldn't have jobs.
Crosby hit 71% from 30-39 yards this year, and the Packers repeatedly passed up FG attempts that would be automatic for most teams because they didn't trust him. Despite that, they didn't cut him. Akers was equally bad, but they guy they just picked up to challenge him, Billy Cundiff, was cut from 2 or 3 teams this year!
The Giants should try to give Tynes some competition in camp next year, but he's far from the biggest problem with this team.
Come man because of 50+ yard misses? I used be a BIG time Tynes hater.... but he has gotten better ... He got a little iffy at the end.... maybe it was fatigue .... ih he isnt expensive hes a keeper
He was 100% (11 of 11) in attempts/made FGs under 30 yards this year. He made 14 of 16 attempts at 30-39 yards (and he made 7 of 9 attempts from 40-49 yeards). So, no, Tynes has not "inexplicably" missed "what are basically chip shots sometimes".
And if you are referring to attempts made from 30 yards and beyond as "chip shots", you might want to ask a pro place kicker if that's the case.
It's certainly your perogative to dislike a player, but please don't make up nonexistent "stats" to justify your dislike.

Financial Aid Quarterly Newsletter
Spring 2013 Edition
When to Expect Your 2013-14 Financial Aid Award Letter
Wondering when you'll receive your financial aid award for the 2013-14 school year? Have you already applied? Do we have all of the documentation we need from you?
If you haven't applied for financial aid for 2013-14 yet, it's not too late! Apply as soon as possible by completing the FAFSA.
Be sure you have also completed all of your financial aid requirements by logging into PioneerWeb. Just go to the Law Student tab and review the "Financial Aid Requirements" box. Anything with a red flag next to it is still outstanding and must be submitted before we can create an award package for you.
We have already starting sending award emails to new students, and we will start sending award offer emails in late May to current students who have completed all application requirements. These emails will be sent to your preferred address. Verify that you have the correct email address on file by going to the Law Student tab of PioneerWeb and clicking on "Set Your Preferred Email Address."
Summer Aid
Are you planning to take classes during the summer and need financial aid? If so, you will need to submit a summer aid application. Financial aid is available for the summer semester, but on a limited basis. Learn more about application deadlines and your eligibility for both institutional and federal aid through the Financial Aid website.
To apply for summer aid:
Once your application has been reviewed, you will receive an email with information about your summer aid options (typically within 2-3 weeks).
FAQ Corner
Q: What does the priority deadline mean? What if I missed it?A: The priority deadline for new students to apply for financial aid for 2013-14 was February 15th; for current students, the priority deadline was March 15th. So what exactly does that mean?
Applying for financial aid by the priority deadline increases your chances of receiving highly sought-after awards such as the Perkins loan and work-study. Because these types of aid have such limited funding, we are not able to offer them to everyone who may otherwise qualify. So, students who apply by these deadlines are given priority consideration for these awards.
If you missed the priority deadline, you should still apply as soon as possible! While you may miss out on the Perkins loan or work-study, the sooner you apply, the sooner you'll receive your financial aid award.

Impact of Sequestration on Federal Student Aid Programs
March 4, 2013
"Congress did not reach an agreement to reduce the FY2013 budget deficit on March 1, 2013. Accordingly, the automatic across-the-board budget cuts known as sequestration will become effective on March 27, 2013, cutting funding for some federal student aid programs for the remainder of the FY2013 budget year and 2013-14 award year.
...The loan fees for Federal Direct Stafford loans will increase from 1.0% to 1.051% and the loan fees for the Federal Direct PLUS loan (including both Parent PLUS and Grad PLUS loans) will increase from 4.0% to 4.204%. These increases apply only to loans that are first disbursed after the sequester takes effect."

Smart Borrowing Tip
Have you already borrowed student loans while at DU? Do you know how much loan debt you currently have? Many students don't keep track of the loans they borrow from year to year, which can turn into major sticker shock when it's time to repay those loans. Before you accept any loans offered to you for the 2013-14 school year, log into the National Student Loan Data System to review your current federal loan debt. Knowing exactly what you've borrowed now will help you make smart borrowing decisions, which will pay off after you graduate!

As a Greenmeadow resident, I resent having to take the extra time to try and figure out what garbage goes where. I pay a lot of money already for my garbage pick-up. Let the employees do the sorting, not the residents. Sorry, but I guess I am not a green resident of Greenmeadow. All of my trash will be going in one bag, as usual, and the recyclables will go, loosely, in the same can - green or blue, I have no idea.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Good location, clean room although compact. Good selection at breakfast as well - set us up for the day!
We (6 friends from Germany) had an awesome time in Prague and we enjoyed every minute of our stay in the Rustic Family Apartment.
It was super clean, well designed and was perfect for us. The affordable price made it possible for us to experience the beauty of Prague and to get to know the Czech Republic.
The staff was super nice to us and answered all of our questions professionally.
It was a pleasure Robert.
We want to thank Royal Ballezza Apartments for providing the best service, great apartments with a good location and affordable prices.
This makes it possible for young people like us to see the world.
I highly recommend it.
Thank you for everything.
The Germans (43)
Nice and clean rooms, well located and very friendly staff.
Thank you very much for the perfect hospitality.
I had the best experience with this apartment during my stay (in April 2016) The staff welcomed me in a way that I felt at home immediately and during my time there all of them were extremly helpfull and really friendly at any time! The location of the apartments is in a perfect position: you reach most of the tourist-attractions in a short walk of 10-15 minutes, also a small supermarket is opposite the street that covers all your daily needs, as well there is a good (vegetarian!!) restaurant closeby in the same street, a nice bar on the other side of the street and a metro-station within a short walk of about 3 minutes! The apartment itself was extremly clean and with nice furniture! I was lucky enough and had an apartment with a window to the backyard - so it was quiet inside at any time of the day/night! I can highly recommend these apartments - I would book it again at any time ... if I am lucky enough to return to the beautiful city of Prague ...
We had a really great time there. Beautiful and clean apartment, friendly staff. Overall a great experience.
Everything was clean, organized, and functional. I enjoyed my stay at the apartment and it was for a great price too. Also, the bathroom floor was heated! Thumbs up!
A great location if you want somewhere that is near public transport (tram and metro) and also close enough to walk into the city if you are fit and have plenty of energy. The apartment was spacious and very warm for December, kitchen quite adequate and light cleaning was provided daily. Having transport arranged from and to the airport was very convenient.
The real asset to these apartments are the desk staff who do a really wonderful job day and night. Helpful and polite they are the best advertisement the place could have and deserve the highest praise.
If you are travelling near to Christmas there are plenty of sites with Christmas villages and at least two within easy walking distance. If you want to visit places such as the castle or Kafka museum the 22 tram departs only 50 meters from the door.
The apartment was simply great! Big and well furnished, extremely clean and cosy. Boys and girls at the reception were great too helping us find our way through the discovery of Prague!.
Close to the metro, close to the city center and really easy to reach also from the airport.
We loved this wonderful apartments in the center of Prague! So close to subway ad tram. Also the apartment was brand new, warm, roomy, clean... We couldn't ask for more
The hotel is so beautiful! It was amazing, the room is small but perfect for a citytrip. It is located very cetral and the metro is very near to the hotel.
The breakfast is a little bit too small but it is ok for this price. The room was always cleand and the reception is very friendly.
If I would travel to prague again, I would always stay at the royal court hotel!

It never works this way, often the shooters groups get worse.

Ryan Ferguson freed from prison
Missouri Attorney General decides not to retry Ryan Ferguson
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Ryan Ferguson, a Columbia man imprisoned 10 years for murder and robbery, was released from prison Tuesday.
The Missouri Attorney General confirmed Tuesday he will not seek a retrial of 29-yea-rold Ferguson. Attorney General Chris Koster announced he will not retry or seek further legal action against Ferguson.
Koster said in a statement: "After studying the appellate court's opinion in Ferguson v. Dormire and carefully reviewing the remaining known evidence in the case, the Attorney General's office will not retry or pursue further action against Ryan Ferguson at this time."
Documents obtained by ABC 17 News state the Missouri Western District Court of Appeals ordered Ferguson's immediate release from the Department of Corrections.
Ferguson was transferred from the Jefferson City Correctional Center to the custody of Boone County, where the circuit court approved his release. According to court rules, the Department of Corrections had to deliver Ferguson to Boone County Circuit Court as a "pretrial detainee." The court then had to sign off on his release.
Around 4:45 p.m. Tuesday, the Missouri Attorney General's Office filed an order with the Boone County Circuit Court stating that Koster will not retry Ferguson. The order meant Ferguson could be released immediately once a Boone County judge signed off on the order.
Ferguson was transported to the Boone County Jail temporarily and was released from custody just before 6 p.m. Tuesday.
Ferguson, his parents, and his attorney, Kathleen Zellner, then moved to the Tiger Hotel in downtown Columbia where they addressed the media and supporters at a press conference.
In 2004, Ferguson was convicted of killing Columbia Sports Tribune sports editor Kent Heitholt on Halloween night 2001. Despite his conviction, he has maintained his innocence.
Last week, the Western District Court of Appeals overturned Ferguson's murder and robbery convictions. The appeals panel said the prosecutor's office had withheld evidence from defense attorneys and that Ferguson did not receive a fair trial.

Armstrong, Elizabeth. "Ben Vautier." In Bits & Pieces Put Together to Present a Semblance of a Whole: Walker Art Center Collections, edited by Joan Rothfuss and Elizabeth Carpenter. Minneapolis, MN: Walker Art Center, 2005.
© 2005 Walker Art Center
Ben Vautier was described as 100% Fluxman by George Maciunas, self-appointed founder of the Fluxus movement, which was considered by many to be the most radical and experimental art movement of the 1960s. Intentionally positioning themselves outside mainstream art and art institutions, Fluxus artists created their own venues for performances, exhibitions, and sale of their work. Vautier—often referred to simply as Ben—played a central role in the early evolution of the Fluxus movement and was one of its most active international participants.
In the early 1960s, Maciunas organized a number of performances throughout Europe that carried the hallmarks of what would become classic Fluxus. These events, often presented as "concerts" or "festivals," brought together a range of experimental artists whose performance activities combined music, poetry, the visual arts, and actions. In 1962 in Nice, Maciunas worked for the first time with Ben, organizer of the "Festival Ben Vautier," who expanded the format to include street performances in addition to events presented in theater and staged settings. Ben was particularly interested in the techniques of Dada and the ideas of Marcel Duchamp and John Cage. "Without Cage, Marcel Duchamp, and Dada, Fluxus would not exist … ," he wrote. "Fluxus exists and creates from the knowledge of this post-Duchamp (the readymade) and post-Cage (the depersonalization of the artist) situation."1
In his Fluxus performances, Vautier used his own body as the primary medium for his art. His events in the streets of Nice included gestures and actions that were surprisingly literal. While writing on a wall, for instance, he inscribed on a large placard "Ben ecrit sur les murs" (Ben is writing on walls). In another performance, he seated himself on a chair in the middle of a street, with a placard at his feet that read "regardez-moi/cela suffit/je suis art" (look at me/that's enough/i am art). In a later performance, titled Mystery Food (1963), Vautier—dressed in a suit, overcoat, and bowler hat—opened and ate the contents of a can of food whose label had been removed, then ceremoniously brushed his teeth. In subversive disregard of any conventional approach to art, Fluxus humor resided in the incongruities between expectation and presentation. His self-exhibitions abandoned conventional aesthetics, mocked the self-importance of the artist, and encouraged laughter at the self.
In the late fall of 1962, Fluxus-associated artists Daniel Spoerri and Robert Filliou organized an event in London called the Festival of Misfits. During the weeklong festival, Vautier presented himself and his environment as the ultimate Duchampian readymade—a living aesthetic object for the viewer's contemplation. Calling his work Living Sculpture (1962), he took up residence in the small display window of London's Gallery One, where he lived for fifteen days, putting himself on view and offering himself for sale for £250. Acting on "the stage of life," he surrounded himself with everyday objects, including a bed, a table and chair, a gas cooker (for heating food), a television set, a wine glass, a meat grinder, a hand drill, and a teddy bear, along with created objects such as a "potatoes on a wire" sculpture and numerous plaques with Ben's text. In his trademark cursive handwriting, these text panels consisted of rhetorical questions and whimsical comments, giving equal importance to everything from the kitchen table to a container of dirty water. "Everything that I touch and look at is a work of art," reads one of his plaques. As the artist engaged in a direct exchange with the audience, this quintessential Fluxus piece bypassed the elitism of the museum and gallery system and blurred the lines between art and everyday life.
"It was real life," he wrote about Living Sculpture more than thirty years later. "When I did the window, Fluxus was supposed to turn into life and fun. Today, it is art archaeology."2 In 1993, the Walker Art Center mounted the exhibition In the Spirit of Fluxus. Invited to re-create his Gallery One window, Vautier found a number of vintage objects from the original piece, to which he added numerous replicas based on old film footage and photographs of the 1962 event. He also inserted several new objects, including a boombox and a slide projector that displayed original and updated texts in the window, such as "Does anybody have an idea?" and "Art is a dead story."
A number of the objects and ideas for objects presented in Ben's window were later produced by Maciunas as Fluxus multiples, and the Walker's collection includes key examples of many of these publications as well—from his books and broadsides to the multiplicity of small things such as his Flux Mystery Food (1967), Flux Missing Card Deck (1967/1969), and A Flux Suicide Kit (1967/1969). Taking the notion of Duchamp's readymades to its logical conclusion, Vautier made up certificates that could authenticate as art such mundane objects as empty wine bottles, dirty water, dust, blank postcards, holes, and even himself. As produced by Maciunas in large editions from inexpensive, easily obtainable materials, these objects reflect one of the most distinctive aspects of Fluxus, the "free license" that artists gave one another in interpreting their work. In the process, they undermined the status of art as a valuable commodity and rewrote the notion of artistic sovereignty and originality.

Iowa amok
Gross, nasty, disgusting story out of Iowa recently — from Iowa City, to be exact, home of the University of Iowa, whose cool-uniformed football Hawkeyes are coached by former Bill Belichick acolyte Kirk Ferentz.
Attentive readers will recall that Iowa was in the sports-crime pages a lot this past fall, as a veritable feathered flock of current and former Hawkeyes flew into the police blotters of the Midwest. There was the story of wideouts Dominique Douglas and Anthony Bowman, two super-geniuses who used traceable IDs on university computers to steal sports merch online. Bowman subsequently was involved in another crazy incident in which he apparently stole $30.02 worth of DVDs from a Wal-Mart — then barricaded himself in his dorm room when police came for him. And there was former defensive tackle Lee Gray, who got busted for six class-C felonies for drug dealing. Running back Dana Brown — like Douglas and Bowman, a sophomore — was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend. Needless to say, Iowa was one of the most troubled major-college programs around this past year.
Now Iowa and the Hawkeyes are facing perhaps their most serious sports-crime case since the sexual-assault travails of onetime hoops star Pierre Pierce in 2002 and 2005. It seems warrants were issued for two former Hawkeye defensive backs, Cedric Everson and Abe Satterfield, who stand accused of sexually assaulting a woman on campus this past fall while she was incapacitated. The incident took place on October 14, 2007, in a dorm called Hillcrest Hall. It's unclear exactly what took place, but according to the police complaint, the woman "was not even aware the defendant was having sexual intercourse with her." Police also say that the DNA of sperm found in the victim "matched the known DNA profile of [Everson]."
A lengthy investigation concluded with Everson's surrender this past week; Satterfield, as of this writing, has not yet turned himself in. Both players were kicked off the Iowa team this past year and are now playing at smaller schools — Everson at Alcorn State and Satterfield at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. A lot of these drunken dorm-room sexual-assault cases seem to go away with minimal jail time, but in Iowa it's a different story — the second-degree sexual-abuse felony that both of these men are charged with carries a mandatory sentence of 70 percent of the maximum, which in Iowa happens to be 25 years. (Satterfield is also being sought on an additional third-degree sexual-abuse charge, which carries a maximum of 10 years and a $10,000 fine.) That means that, if found guilty, both players are facing at least 17 years — real years — in jail. Because of the seriousness of the crimes alleged here, we'll give this pair a provisional 90 points, putting them at the top of the list. We'll keep you posted as formal charges are filed and their trial moves forward, so stay tuned for updates from the Hawkeye State.
Career cut short
We may never know what kind of sports-crime potential Calvin Schmidtke might have fulfilled, now that he has been disinvited to follow in the footsteps of Drew Bledsoe. The top QB prospect from Lakes High in Tacoma, Washington, was set to take over at Bledsoe's alma mater, Washington State, but now has been cast away after the latest of an astonishing string of arrests and citations.

The Psycho Strut
Part 2 in a continuum of Led Zeppelin concerts I witnessed in Chicago 1977. Onto the second night at the Chicago Stadium. It's Thursday, April 7th and the reviews are in from the opening night's show. The consensus was that the show was shaky and erratic, marred by equipment problems. Though I had enjoyed it, I was hoping the Thursday show would be tighter.
This evening's seats are first balcony, first row in the band's left side profile. My sight line was from the lip of Bonzo's drum riser to the front edge of the stage. I would have these exact seats for Saturday's show. On with the show. I got to the Stadium a little earlier to soak it all in. The bizarre green flooring that covered the stage; Watching the lighting guys climbing up their rigs to man the spotlights; Jimmy's minimal pedal set-up with his wah wah and echoplex being double- checked by Ray Thomas. I thought it was great when I saw some roadie stocking an enormous cooler with vast quantities of Heineken beer. Of course it was set up five feet left of Bonzo's kit! Some more roadies scurry about and then the stage clears.
As the lights are extinguished the surge in anticipation is phenomenal. You're leaving normal consciousness and entering the world of Zeppelin. That's fine with me. My vantage point allows me to see the band leave the backstage area and prepare to mount the stage. Jimmy's in white satin again and is led by flashlight to his stage mark. He's handed his Gibson double neck and hits a chord to commence the show. The Song Remains the Same once again kicks it off. A sole spotlight streaking across the Stadium to isolate Page as Bonzo and Jonesy slam the accents in tandem. Bonham is a fucking animal as he beats the shit out of his kit! In his blue sneakers and the tuxedoed get-up. Robert's wearing a brown blouse with tight jeans and you can see the light changes reflecting in Robert's hair. JPJ dressed cleanly in white. The energy is up as a animated Page attacks the solo with a vengeance and leads into a thick and heavy sounding The Rover. The slowier and funkier Sick Again follows. Jimmy moves and dances as one with his guitar. Swizzle stick thin he couldn't have weighed more than 130 lbs.
Nobody's Fault But Mine is admirable and Robert concludes the song with a Arabesque hand flourish. In My Time Of Dying is not played tonight. Since I've Been Loving You has Page, with a dangler hanging from his mouth, blasting out the blues power. Robert sounds incredible as he weaves his story. Moody organ enhances it all. Great band dynamics!
Dry ice is pumped from the stage to signal No Quarter. JPJ alone in emerald light as he picks out the theme. Jimmy and Bonzo are bruising as they drive the riff. Robert's is displaying more controlled power vocally. Jonesy stands to switch to piano and plays a beautiful segment...what a musician! The improv section reveals Page is coming at it from another angle. Totally dissimilar in construction with the movie soundtrack version. Ten Years Gone does sound pristine and was superior to the prior night's version, with Page's echoplexed b-bender solo much more coherent. The sound problems that plagued opening night seem to have been ironed out. That's a good thing because the acoustic set then followed . Immaculate and dynamic, these series of songs really came across great! Battle of Evermore rang out and watching the band seated in a row jamming was priceless. This is a spellbinding rendition that has everyone cheering! A relaxed Going to California has Jonesy showing his mandolin chops. Black Country Woman/ Bron yr aur Stomp concluded the acoustic interlude powerfully. I was looking down atop Page, as he sat, immersed in guitar bliss.
I was able to see more of the technical side because of my seats. The switching of guitars that took place; Page and Bonham conferring with Ray Thomas and Mick Hinton; How many beers they were drinking; Peter Grant watching the show by Page's side fills.
White Summer/ Black Mt. Side kept Jimmy seated, bathed in gold light. It was a stellar version. Tuneful and emotive , Page was on target with Bonzo adding tabla drum feel. The Page/ Bonham interaction is revealing tonight. Their musical connection is so strong! Kashmir peels the paint as the crowd jumps to their feet pulled into the vortex of sound. It's loud but not distorted and they nail every break with conviction. Page is all over the place throwing himself about in time to the rhythm. Robert is such a commanding figure as his voice trails off into infinity. The magic of the band is really apparent here. Over the Top is concise tonight and I marvel at John Bonham's sound and ability, he was absorbed in his work and the fans loved it! I had a great angle of his drum kit motoring out to the front of the stage, amid explosions and lighting effects.
Jimmy's Noise Symphony was next up and brought out The Psycho Strut. Perhaps something was ingested during their drum solo hiatus, but Page came back out fucking possessed! Jimmy duckwalked, got down on his knees, pointing at the crowd as a plectrum hung from his lip, He was controlling sound with his physical motion. Theramin tones that cut through you led into the violin bow section. A technician was manipulating lasers from behind Pagey's Marshalls, beaming them upward on an angle. The laser pyramid descended from above and the combination of dry ice, orange and emerald light was eerie! The bow climax sounded mint with Bonzo entering the fray wailing on his tympani. What a cauldron of sound! Achilles Last Stand is more composed tonight, but you can tell they're still finding their way on this one. Page missing a few pedal switches because his dancing had carried him to the other side of the stage!
Before Stairway To Heaven, Robert corrects himself in regards to something he said the night before - " Sorry! I had a time lapse. We last toured here in 1975!" Jimmy plays the plaintive opening notes and the spell is cast. Everyone gelled on this one. Robert improvising the line" Does anyone remember forests?" Jimmy swings the doubleneck into an upright position to start the fanfare. Bonham's splashing symbols and then a sweet and soulful Page guitar solo. Jimmy somewhat stationary, executing fast Spanish flurries. Robert brings the song to it's conclusion and then a mammoth reaction. The band come to the front, acknowledging the crowd. Jimmy is dripping wet as he leaves the stage.
When their 5 minute breather concludes, Zeppelin reappear for one more. It's Rock and Roll. A stock version which pleased all. This ended the Thursday evening show. A very compact and tight show . What I'll call Tightly Tight!
Wait until what happens at the Saturday show. What a difference two days will make! Until then.........

In broad outline, here is Gentry's FHE construction kit. He creates a cryptosystem with the usual encrypt and decrypt functions, which convert bits from plaintext to ciphertext and back. He also builds an evaluate function that accepts a description of a computation to be performed on the ciphertext. The computation is specified not as a sequential program but as a circuit or network, where input signals pass through a cascade of logic gates. Such circuits are most often assembled from Boolean gates (AND, OR, NOT, etc.), but they can also be specified in terms of addition and multiplication steps.
The evaluate function amounts to a complete computer embedded in the cryptosystem. In principle, it can calculate any computable function, provided that the circuit representing the function is allowed to extend to arbitrary depth. The depth of a circuit is the number of gates on the longest path from input to output. A full-powered computer must be able to handle circuits of arbitrary depth. Here the homomorphic system runs into a barrier. The problem is that ciphertext data are contaminated with numerical "noise"—slight discrepancies from their ideal values. Every arithmetic operation amplifies the noise, until eventually it overwhelms the signal.
The origin of the noise lies in the probabilistic encryption process. Think of each ciphertext value as a point in space. The probabilistic encrypt function injects a smidgen of randomness into each of the point's coordinates, displacing it slightly from the position it would occupy in a deterministic cryptosystem. The decrypt function filters out the noise by treating each point as if it were located at the nearest unperturbed position. When the noise is amplified by homomorphic computations, however, the point wanders farther from its correct position, until finally the decrypt function will associate it with an incorrect plaintext value.
Roughly speaking, each homomorphic addition doubles the noise, and each multiplication squares it. Hence the number of operations must be limited or errors will accumulate. Because of the limit on circuit depth, this version of the cryptosystem cannot be called fully homomorphic but only "somewhat homomorphic."
The depth limit could be evaded in the following way: Whenever the noise begins to approach the critical threshold, decrypt the data and then re-encrypt it, thereby resetting the noise to its original low level. The trouble is, decryption requires the secret key, and the whole point of FHE is to allow computation in a context where that key is unavailable.

CHAPEL HILL --- No. 1 North Carolina improved to 12-1 with a pair of 7-0 victories over Winthrop and East Carolina Saturday at the Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center. The Tar Heels dropped just one doubles match on the day, with Zoe De Bruycker, Caroline Price, Ashley Dai, Tessa Lyons and Kate Vialle winning twice in singles.
Carolina opened the morning outside against Winthrop (5-7), and the hosts took the point with wins on courts two and three. All three matches were close early, but Price and Dai pulled away for an 8-2 victory on court two. Winthrop's Yasmine Alkema and Andressa Garcia evened the point at one match all with an 8-5 victory on court one, but Whitney Kay and Kate Vialle prevailed on court three, 8-5, to clinch it.
The Tar Heels won in straight sets on all six singles courts against the Eagles, with Vialle, Kay and Price getting the first three points to seal the dual. Lyons, Dai and De Bruycker all finished soon after to complete the sweep.
UNC was even more impressive in the afternoon indoor match against East Carolina (7-3). The Tar Heels dropped just seven games in doubles, with Lyons and Laura Slater clinching the point with an 8-2 win over Dani Terpko and Dana Gray on court three.
Price continued her impressive spring with another straight-set win, as the sophomore was first off after beating Melis Tanik on court two, 6-0, 6-1.
The clinching points came quickly after Price's victory, as Lyons and Slater finished almost simultaneously on courts five and six, respectively, to secure the dual match victory. Lyons was a 6-2, 6-0 winner over Gray, while Slater did not drop a game in her 6-0, 6-0 win over Abby Richmond.
De Bruycker finished next, defeating Neena Wanko, 6-2, 6-0, before Vialle won her second match of the day, 6-2, 6-0, over Terpko. Dai needed a second-set rally to complete the sweep, but the freshman won the final three games in her 6-2, 6-4 win over Yilian Zhang.
Carolina has a week off before hosting No. 24 Baylor Sunday, March 10, at 1 p.m.

"Just saw this and will absolutely make it. I will modify it with lemon curd instead of using boxed pudding because lemon goes so well with berrie. Berries are at their peak right now so this will be a terrific change for dessert items"

[quote user="Kase-1"]So me and my girl went out to see 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' and WOW. There is a ridiculous amount of full frontal nude shots and a TON of ultra graphic scenes of Rooney Mara getting pounded
I kept saying Wellington wouldnt be proud, and my girl had no idea what I was talking about.... Then again she's only been on the Kase-1 train for a lil bit so she got a pass
Its crazy how she can go from wierd dyke looking broad to hot actress with the addition of a wig, LOL

Sipping the Sonoma Way
Old Crocker Inn • Cloverdale, CA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Two, Sundays through Thursdays ($250) or Fridays and Saturdays ($299)
- Full Breakfast for Two Each Day
- Wine Tasting Passport to More than 120 Wineries
With America's best food and wine, its most striking coastline, and some of the world's only redwood forests, California is enviable, to say the least.
Add to that Cloverdale's designation as one of the Coolest Small Towns in America, an honor bestowed on the northern Sonoma County burg by Budget Traveler in 2011, and you've got this week's Escape to the Old Crocker Inn, about 90 minutes north of San Francisco.
Set on five acres, this ranch-style bed and breakfast is offering a two-night stay for two, Sundays through Thursdays ($250) or Fridays and Saturdays ($299), plus a full breakfast each morning and a wine tasting passport to dozens of area wineries, courtesy of Wine Country Inns.
Built as a hunting lodge in the 1880s, Old Crocker Inn is now a AAA Three Diamond property outfitted with ten guest rooms, a porch and patio, and an outdoor swimming pool. Each room features plush linens, a gas fireplace, a TV with a DVD player and cable, and Internet access. Rooms in the lodge boast clawfoot bathtubs and showers, while some cottage rooms are appointed with whirlpool tubs.
After breakfast (which might include house-made scones, quiche, roasted potatoes, chicken sausage, and seasonal fresh fruit), pick up your passport for tastings at more than 120 wineries in the Dry Creek, Russian River, Anderson, and Alexander valleys.
For dinner, look no further than Healdsburg. It's just 20 minutes south and it's home to two Michelin starred restaurants: the immaculately curated yet unpretentious Cyrus, and Madrona Manor, which sources much of its produce from an on-site garden.
And for a taste of what makes California the country's most ecologically diverse state, visit Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve, about 30 minutes south of the inn, or drive west to the awe-inspiring Mendocino Coast, a fiercely protected swath of land known for its atmospheric fog, sprawling beaches, and laid-back citizenry.
California might be the country's third-largest state, but let's face it: Most of its treasure is found in the north. And where better to experience it all than Cloverdale—and the Old Crocker Inn.
"Bottom line, the Old Crocker Inn is the perfect retreat, with clear night skies, delicious food, peace and quiet, and the warmest of hosts (Tony hugged us when we left!)."-- TripAdvisor

Desperately seeking self employment ideas!
From a young age I always knew I wanted to be self-employed. I had tremendous support from friends and family, and at the age of 18 I started my own commercial cleaning company, with the financial help of my dad (who has many years experience). I decided a year later it wasnt for me although it was obvious it could have been very successful. I am now married and about to turn 22 in 3 weeks, I've been a registered Child minder now for 4 months, but have had zero interest in the business and have done further research and since discovered this area of service is rapidly declining. I am desperate to find something I can do. I have limited skills or qualifications and unfortunately I am very impatient. A very close friend suggested we open special type of night club aimed at a particular audience. I have researched well and found that there is a gap in the market in my surrounding area and feel it's a potentially great idea. I understand that there are a few laws and guidelines, but if I were going to open this venue, where would i start? Or do you have any ideas on what I could do or where I can look for ideas on self employment? All suggestions welcome. Cheers!

I did a quick check on my "slower/weaker" hive tonight. The second deep is mostly all drawn(10 frames) and mostly filled with what seems to be uncapped sugar syrup, or it could be honey. I am planning on removing the syrup feeder tomorrow during my full inspection. I have kept it on because many in the area said to wait until the second deep was drawn. I will be adding the 1st super as tomorrow as well. A while back I posted a question about bees filling "too much" syrup into the 2nd brood box along with much pollen. Frames 2 and 8 of the 2nd brood box seem to have mostly all cells filled with either syrup or honey. Some have advised to split the hive to avoid swarming, but many others have said not to since it is already mid/late June and that won't be enough time to build up from now until fall. Here are my thoughts of what I could/should do. Please give your opinion.
1. "Let it ride" and just add the super. Hoping that they will "limp" the brood along for the rest of the year in the available cells and begin to fill the super with honey. Will bees "clean out" cells filled with food and then allow eggs to be laid in them eventually yet this year?
2. Swap a frame or 2 of brood from my strong hive and replace those frames with the food stored frames into my strong hive. This would allow the weaker hive to have brood cells. Or this may result in them just eventually filling these frames in with stores as well.
3. Take out a few deep frames and extract whatever is in the cells and then place the frames back into the hive in hopes they would use the cells for laying in.
4. Split the hive and "wing it" in hopes of making it in time for winter. They had already made a few queen cells with larva in them, but I cut them out when I saw good egg laying over a week of time.
5. Other????
Having only 2 hives for my first year reminds me that I would like to have something to show for my 1st year of mine/ and the bees work and hopefully not screw up both of my hives.
Thanks, juzzerbee

Blueshirts avoid arbitration with Brassard
New York, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - The New York Rangers avoided arbitration with forward Derick Brassard, agreeing to terms with the restricted free agent on a multi-year contract Sunday.
No terms were disclosed by the club, but the New York Post reported it's a five-year pact worth $25 million for the duration.
Brassard set career highs in goals (18) and games played (81) last season, while adding 27 assists and 45 points. He contributed six goals and as many assists over 23 playoff appearances for the defending Eastern Conference champions.
The 26-year-old native of Quebec -- who was taken sixth overall in the 2006 draft by Columbus -- has dressed for 403 NHL contests for the Blue Jackets and Rangers since 2007, accumulating 81 goals and 225 points. Brassard has also notched eight goals and 16 assists in 35 postseason games, all with New York in the last two campaigns.

"Beasts of the Southern Wild" premiered last January at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Grand Jury Prize for dramatic films. At Cannes, it won the The Caméra d'Or ("Golden Camera"), which is awarded for the best first feature film (this is director Benh Zeitlin's first feature-length film). It also won the similarly purposed Sutherland Award, awarded by the British Film Institute. Sight & Sound and AFI have both listed the film amongst their Bests of 2012.
With so many critical accolades showered upon it, I knew I had to see it before the year was out. I'm certainly glad that I did. "Beasts of the Southern Wild" is a challenging, moving, thought-provoking film that certainly deserves to be included in the discussion of the year's best.
"Beasts of the Southern Wild" provokes thought right from the opening moments. Hushpuppy (Quvenzhané Wallis), the film's six-year-old protagonist, walks about her destitute environs, listening to the heartbeats of the animals in her yard, narrating that every animal's heart beats. She soon joins the other residents of her shanty dwelling, bayou community in a party and informs us, "The Bathtub has more holidays than the whole rest of the world."
The tone is set going forward. Our six-year-old heroine will narrate, with her "wisdom of a child" point of view, as she faces the hardships and squalor around her.
A bigger challenge for Hushpuppy than the extreme poverty of her bayou community is that her father is neglectful. What attention he does afford her is intended to toughen her up and prepare her for the hardships she's to face in life. Above and beyond the necessity to handle her Darwinian environs, however, he knows that she may need to be ready to survive on her own sooner than she'd like.
He's sick.
Much of the tension of the film is derived from watching the young Hushpuppy wander about unsupervised. She's far younger than the age that most… civil societies would let their children roam about the world completely free, and indeed, she gets into considerable danger. She's almost in as much danger when she's with her father though. While not… straight up abusive, he's certainly extremely harsh. You get the feeling he needs to be, however. Life in the "Bathtub" is difficult. They live in the barest of shelters, and feed off of the animals they raise and the seafood they can catch. They're even more susceptible than most to the wrath of storms, living right on the edge of the gulf and with little to protect them. And indeed, when a storm hits (Katrina?), things change dramatically for the residents of the "Bathtub".
The simplicity of "Beasts" lends itself to contemplation. Obviously there are environmental issues at hand, and socio-economic differences on display. But it's also a stark reminder of our bestial nature… we are, still – no matter how civilized or cultured – still animals under the jurisdiction of nature. It also illustrates the beauty and power of life, and the strength inherent in children… and us all. It's a quietly powerful, moving film that leaves us a lot to ponder. Viewers will undoubtedly be finding their own connections to Hushpuppy's struggles, seeing metaphors, and extrapolating her attributes and experiences out to humanity as a whole.
On the basest level, we're all just children in the 'Tub.
Young Quvenzhané Wallis is a force to be reckoned with as Hushpuppy. It doesn't seem as if she'll be one of those child stars who score a big awards season nom (She's not on the SAG or Golden Globe nominees listings), but in my opinion she certainly could have been. She's alternately strong and scared, but always a child. At times, you'll feel for her being a child in these circumstances. At others, you'll be in awe of her capabilities and fortitude. Dwight Henry, as her father, is not a professional actor (or at least, wasn't when this was shot), but you'd be hard pressed to pick up on it here if you didn't know. He, too, turns in a powerful performance as a man struggling to do the best he can under difficult circumstances, in a culture and a lifestyle that's completely foreign to those of us living in comfort in the modern world.
"Beasts of the Southern Wild" is close to a movie about modern cavemen, but by stripping away all but the basest comforts, we get a look at the very core of humanity. What we are, what we truly need, and what we're capable of.

Think outside the bottle: Ban bottled water at National Parks
Posted by Admin in Guest Posts, People Power, Not Corporate Power on 11th July, 2013 | 1 Comment
The 'Think Outside the Bottle' campaign has teamed up with the Story of Stuff Project in a new effort to ban bottled water at national parks across the country. According to the campaign, 280 million people visit national parks every summer and consume 2.6 billion gallons of water…from disposable plastic bottles. Yikes.
