text:
The stunning move this week by Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells, in booting big-money kicker Mike Vanderjagt to the curb and replacing him with journeyman veteran Martin Gramatica, is certainly a high-stakes gamble.
And how chilling the results turn out to be might be determined by how well Gramatica, who has attempted only one field goal since 2004, performs in the coldest and most cold-hearted part of the schedule.
Reputations are often made and broken for all players, but especially for kickers, in December. In a league where nearly 25 percent of the games are annually determined by three points or less, every kick is big. But because of the playoff ramifications, those kicks are magnified in December, and the pressure is going to be even more intense on Gramatica, because of the man he replaced and because the Cowboys are a resurgent team with the potential to go deep into the postseason.
There is a track record, however, to suggest that Gramatica might stand up well to the pressure. Gramatica will get a chance to add to his late-season resume on Sunday, when the Cowboys face the New York Giants in a huge NFC East matchup at Giants Stadium.
In his seven-year career, Gramatica has converted 38 of 47 field goals in regular-season games played in December or January. That 80.9 percent conversion rate is actually higher than Gramatica's success rate, 76.7 percent, in all regular-season games, where he has made 138 of 180 kicks. In outdoor games in December and January, he has converted 34 of 40 field goals, an 85.0 percent mark.
Even in cold-weather contests, Gramatica, a native of Argentina who spent most of his career kicking for the Tampa Bay Bucs, has been surprisingly good. Gramatica has converted 13 of 17 December field goal tries in what would be considered cold-weather cities. That includes a five-for-five performance at Soldier Field in Chicago on Dec. 29, 2002. The temperature at kickoff that day was 38 degrees, with a wind-chill factor of 33 degrees, and dropped into the low-30s by the fourth quarter.
His success rate in cold-weather cities, 76.4 percent, is only slightly below Gramatica's conversion rate in all games, so that is encouraging.
Just as encouraging, apparently, has been Gramatica's work in practice this week. Those who have watched the practices say that Gramatica, who converted a 20-yard field goal on Oct. 1 while filling in for injured Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri, has been near-perfect.
"We've given him a lot of kicks," Parcells said. "He's working hard."
The real test will come on Sunday, however, at always-tricky Giants Stadium. Although the forecast calls for a high of 48 degrees, with a light breeze at about 7 mph, the circling winds at Giants Stadium can be devilish. And in his seven seasons in the league, somewhat surprisingly, Gramatica has never kicked there.

Ratings for Dr. Bryant J. Lum
Dr. Lum great doctor. I can now see perfect and all because of his expertise.
Some staff members are fine. However, several "ladies" are very, very rude and should be fired. Monitoring should be done.
Overpriced, overbooked, absolute no concern for patients well being aside from collecting his bill and strutting about as if he is God. I would find a different Doctor.
Dr. Lum over charges compared to other Ophthmologists and the patient wait time is excessive!
Everything abut Dr. Lum and his staff was excellent. The problem I ran into was that Pacific Surgery Center was not in my insurance coverage plan. I was told cadaric surgery was covered by my insurance several times during my visits. This lead me to believe I could move forward with setting the surgery . 5 days before surgery I found out NO, my insurance will not pay for the Surgery Center and this is the only location Dr. Lum will operate at. The out of pocket cost is way to expensive. I would suggest you check with your insurance Co before you begin a long process as this. Remember this was my second opion and I felt comfortable with Dr. Lum. It has been 3 months of appointments to have to now start all over with another Opthalmologist.
Dr. Lum saved my eye from being eviscerated . Five other ophthalmologist advised me to remove my eye because their was no sight in the eye and it was causing me severe pain. Two of those doctors were experts in the field of glaucoma at Jules Stein Eye Institute. Dr. Lum cared enough about my eye to think out of the box and use a contact lens as a band aide to prevent my eye lid from bursting the blisters that had formed on my cornea from sustained high eye pressure. I would be writing this today with an artificial eye if Dr. Lum had not intervened. He also reduced my IOP to normal levels when no one else could.
Took numerous visits to get contacts, they ordered the wrong ones several times, then charged me for the additional visits, then ILLEGALLY refused to release my records due to my dispute of those extra visits, Billing staff was rude and does not know the law regarding medical records, Filed a complaint with the AMA.
Wonderful doctor. He saved my vision.God bless him. Please consider visiting him and his wonderful, knowledgable staff.Dr. Lum is an expert in glaucoma.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War
Review by Sir Garland
"The 40,000th "solid" RTS released this year..."
Real Time Strategy and Turn-Based Strategy have long been possibly my two favorite genres. Unfortunately, due to the recent barrage of "decent" strategy games I find myself looking for RPGs instead, or even action games. Those two genres usually have something new and interesting in them, at least. Something that makes them really unique - Nippon Ichi's series of games where you can reach level 9999 and dramatically improve your weapons and armor, the newish Castlevania action/rpg where you have a bunch of familiars and can create weapons from material dropped by fallen enemies, Star Ocean 3's interesting 3d combat field... But the RTS and TBS genres just seem to be the same old thing dressed up in increasingly shinier and graphically improved clothes. This is not to say that only certain death awaits the strategy genres - Age of Empires III had a very interesting experience system and Rise of Nations was so different in its resource gathering that it was a really fresh experience.
Sadly, Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War is neither terribly innovative nor really very interesting. The basic concepts in the game is from some other game made a long time ago. I definitely understand the need to re-use old ideas (if it ain't broke, don't fix it), but it would be really great if they would, y'know, add important game concepts once in a while.
Here's how the basic gameplay works - You pick one of four races. You have a HQ building that trains workers (a concept that is at the very least 12 years old, found in the original Warcraft: Orcs and Humans), make your builders construct Listening Posts on captured strategic points to generate a constant flow of requisition (8 years old, StarCraft), build power generators that create a constant supply of power (9 years old, Total Annihilation), figure out what kind of units your enemy is building and use your requisition and power to build specific units to counter those units (11 years old, Command & Conquer), and climb the tech tree to unlock more powerful units (12 years old, Warcraft). This game also uses a "totally new and innovative" resource model. A resource model that was totally new and innovative in Steel Soldiers, which was released five years ago.
It's not that any of these features are bad, they're just... getting a bit old. If they changed more of the fundamentals of the basic RTS then maybe it really would be a really fun and interesting game, but it's basically just more of the same.
There is are two features that I think deserves some credit, however. Instead of building three squads of infantry and two squads of rocket troops, you build four squads of infantry and upgrade one of them to rocket launchers after it is built. It's not enough to make this an entirely new experience, but it really does improve the experience. For some reason the upgrade/build que for every unit and structure only has six spaces, but you can just right click on the "reinforce" button to handle reinforcements automatically and assign heavy weapons manually.
Reinforce? What's that? Build stuff on the other side of the map and wait half an hour for them to get to where they need to be? Not here! You have to train squads from your barracks-type building, but once a squad is on the field you can increase it's number of troops by reinforcing them - you click on the button, pay some money, wait a short bit, and another soldier pops out in the middle of your squad. This may not sound like it but it is really handy - in most RTS games you have a big battle and you usually have a clear winner, who goes on to destroy the enemy base. Because of the inclusion of a morale system (units suck at fighting when their morale gets too low due to being shot in the face or set on fire or whatever), it is often in your best interest to retreat and regroup. The thing is, your squad will be able to rebuild itself and regain it's morale while the enemy who is beating your main army will be wounded - you can then return in full force. It isn't a huge feature but it really is a cool little feature.
But what about the campaign? Sadly, more of the same. Well, there is one major difference - instead of having separate campaigns for each faction, the single campaign in this game puts you in control of the Space Marines through the whole thing. The campaign can't even compare to ten year old games like Command & Conquer or Warcraft! Probably about half the missions in the campaign go something like this - The enemy is over there. You build whatever troops you want and tell them to move over where your objective is. They get halfway there and die. Make another squad and send them. They make it, you win! The other half of the campaign missions require you to build a couple of defense turrets at the one place the abysmal AI always attacks your base from and then just send wave after wave of troops in the direction of your mission objective. The campaign requires some patience and basically no skill or strategizing at all.
In summary - This game is... Solid. Not extraordinary, but definitely not something to shy away from if you somehow need -another- standard RTS to play.

|PSVI access through DOM in xerces-j
|Mon, 18 Nov 2002 07:24:33 GMT
Hi guys, I'm trying to use PSVI features in Xerces, and I need some help. I understand Xerces 2.2.0 had a bug in the PSVI implementation that caused NullPionterExceptions if you tried to run the samples. Sandy was kind enough to point out that this bug had been fixed in 2.2.1, and indeed xni.PSVIWriter now produces the expected output. Now I'm trying to access the PSVI from DOM. http://xml.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-xs.html#faq-5 says: "Use http://apache.org/xml/properties/dom/document-class-name property to set org.apache.xerces.dom.PSVIDocumentImpl document interfaces implementation. In the resulting DOM tree, you may cast org.w3c.dom.Element to the org.apache.xerces.xni.psvi.ElementPSVI and org.w3c.dom.Attr to the org.apache.xerces.xni.psvi.AttributePSVI." The code snippet that follows assumes that has been done. I assumed that "use ... property to set ..." in the context of DOM means inserting something like the following before the code in that sample: DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); factory.setAttribute ("http://apache.org/xml/properties/dom/document-class-name", "org.apache.xerces.dom.PSVIDocumentImpl"); This throws no exceptions (and I know it does *something*, because if I pass in a nonexistent class name, I get a ``java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: PAR003 Class, "org.apache.xerces.dom.PSVIDocumentImpl.bogus", not found.'') Unfortunately, builders produced by this factory still return org.apache.xerces.dom.ElementImpl objects, not PSVIDocumentImpl. There must be something very simple I'm missing. It would be nice if the sample included a complete working example, one that compiles and produces the expected results. It wouldn't have to be very long. As far as I can tell, it would only add about a half-dozen lines to the 12-line long example on http://xml.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-xs.html#faq-5 Ari. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

Build your vocabulary with Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day! Each day a Merriam-Webster editor offers insight into a fascinating new word -- explaining its meaning, current use, and little-known details about its origin.
February 27th, 2015
Episode 120 of 923 episodes
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 27, 2015 is: rationale \rash-uh-NAL\ noun 1 : an explanation of controlling principles of opinion, belief, practice, or phenomena 2 : an underlying reason : basis Examples: The newspaper's editorial reflected the concerns of many who questioned the rationale behind the mayor's decision. " the sacred trust that elected officials will share all options they've explored, identify the ones they haven't, and share the rationale behind their decisions." Robert F. Walsh, Stratford (Connecticut) Star, January 29, 2015 Did you know? The word rationale appeared in the second half of the 17th century, just in time for the Age of Reason. It is based on the Latin ratio, which means "reason," and rationalis, which means "endowed with reason." At first, rationale meant "an explanation of controlling principles" ("a rationale of religious practices," for example), but soon it began to refer to the underlying reason for something (as in "the rationale for her behavior"). The latter meaning is now the most common use of the term. The English word ratio can also mean "underlying reason" (in fact, it had this meaning before rationale did), but in current use, that word more often refers to the relationship (in number, quantity, or degree) between things.

Jackson Residence is the house occupied by the immediate family of Roland Jackson.
In 1997, Roland unknowingly brought home a P.K.E. Meter possessed by the demon Luko. As Roland slept, Luko implanted information for the Infernal Machine into his mind. The Grundel and his disciple Jack went to the Jackson Residence to turn Casey Jackson. They appeared outside his window and succeeded in tempting him. The Extreme Ghostbusters arrived too late and pursued. However, the Grundel laid in wait and grabbed Kylie Griffin. Roland Jackson returned in time and helped her trap the Grundel in Casey's bedroom. Months later, in November, Roland went back home to deal with "stuff" after the original Ghostbusters reunited. Janine Melnitz called Roland at home and asked him for help on a case. Roland reluctantly agreed and got his team back together.
- In a draft of "Grundelesque", while at a shipyard on near Pier 23-37, Roland notes home is on the exact opposite part of town and as far away as you can get. [1]

Cooking isn't hard. In fact, anyone can make edible food with no knowledge or experience. But edible food probably isn't your goal, is it? You want amazing food! Visions of dinner guests oozing over each bite, raving about how the dish is restaurant quality. Or even better, that it reminds them of some bit of long lost nostalgia that has finally been released from subconscious depths. But enough psychobabble. How can you make this food?
You must understand how to use the secret ingredient! It must be used throughout the cooking process, layered in carefully and thoroughly at each step of the process, much like salt. However, being a zero calorie ingredient without sodium, this item cannot be overused, cannot overpower, and has no health risks. Seems too good to be true, right?
It isn't. The problem is that this ingredient requires careful focus to use. We're busy! Careful focus is not something we're good at anymore; it's a skill set that we've lost almost universally across all industries as our lifestyle has become more frantic.
That stops now.
You have to take your time to use this ingredient; you have to slowly master seeing the details, the little details, of the dish you're making. Don't worry; you don't need to be a master chef! Just one little thing at a time, even if it's a fast dish like a stir fry. Let me walk you through the first 3 steps of a stir fry to show you what I mean, then I promise I'll actually tell you what the secret ingredient is.
Since it goes so quickly, step one of a stir fry is getting everything cut, sliced, diced, and ready to go. Detail to focus on? Uniform sizes. If they aren't uniform sizes they won't cook evenly, which will be either a mushy or a crunchy bummer. Once everything is ready, we're on to step two:
Heating up the pan with oil. Detail to watch? The pan needs to be hot enough that the oil is smoking, not so hot that the oil has a burnt flavor. If there's no sizzle when you add your ingredients, you won't get that nice caramelization and everything will stick. A bummer. The last step?
Removing the food when it's cooked! Paying attention to when the vegetables are just right to take them out and serve them steaming how and wonderfully crisp yet tender. The secret ingredient to master this process?
Love. Calm down, I'll explain! I know, I know. It sounds cheesy. It sounds corny. But if you can truly apply this to your cooking, you'll have amazing dishes every time. More importantly, you'll outstanding memories of creating the dishes, which is what cooking is all about anyway. Just love everything. Every step of the way, love it like crazy. How?
When you select your ingredients at the store, look for the best. Really think about the farmers that worked to grow those vegetables; give their hard work the respect it deserves. An ear of corn isn't just a $.25 item, it's months of work! If you can remember that, you'll protect your ingredients, and your dish will shine for it. While it cooks?
Spread the love! Watch over the dish, invite the people your with to come stir, flip, chop, whatever. Get them involved! More people, more memories, more inside jokes, more you-had-to-be-there moments… those are what cooking is about. Everyone cooks so confused and thinks it's about the food.
Don't get me wrong, the food is important. Just not most important. Taking the time to put this care, this love into your food reflects in the finished dish. Then comes the best part:
Inviting others.
Love of all kinds is infectious. Now, control yourself a little. Reel it in. Just show them how to love the food, the cooking, and the rest will come on its own. I know that you're busy, that you barely have time to cook. But it's like another other addiction.
At first, you can only carve out time to cook a nice breakfast every Sunday morning. A couple months go by, you rearrange a few things, and make Sunday night a regular family dinner night. Then friends start coming. Then they feel guilty that they always come over, they invite you a different day…
One year later, most of your friends come to your for cooking advice, you see your friends almost nightly, and you have more stories to tell that you have time to tell them. Not a bad place to be. Is that unrealistic? Not at all. The secret to it all? Just a little love.

quiet time
my two older girls stopped napping right before they turned 2 so we invented quiet time which was movies,coloring, puzzles, reading and etc for one hour of our day.
We usually don't have a quite time but we are right now Caillou has been on for a hour and I don't think they've moved :) that's nice.
Great idea... I did that too and still at 7 and 9.. they know it's coming on off days from school... We all love it..
We had our quiet time too when my children were younger, but we did it with a different twist. They had to stay in their room and quietly draw, color or read/look at books. Activities were usually limited in hopes they'd eventually fall asleep....which was usually wishful thinking the older they got!

This year, the Monkey gets to celebrate Valentine's Day at school. The catch is that all his Valentine cards have to be handmade (and no candy). I was psyched to hear that, as I knew exactly what we'd be doing. He's almost 6 (only 3 weeks) and it's a great time to introduce him to sewing.
I planned to make Wildcards - index cards with a fused fabric on one side, decorated with stickers and a plastic overlay, and filled with sparkles and sequins.
Materials needed for one card:
- One 4x6 or 5x7 index card
- Fabric piece the same size as index card
- Heat-fusible webbing (Steam-a-seam, heat n' bond, wonder under, etc) the same size as the index card)
- Clear plastic (overhead projector/transparency sheets) cut to the same size as index card)
- Stickers or flat treasures
- sequins, sparkles and other shiny glitter to fill the card
- thread, sewing machine, scissors
The concept uses a lot of the fundamentals he's working on every day, and I wanted him to be able to do as many of the steps as he could, so it was really him making the cards and me just assisting. I ended up doing the ironing stuff, he helped for a few, but 26 cards take a bit of time.
We started with a quick tutorial of how to sew (I need to do some more in-depth instruction, but for now it was just about how it all moves). I had him sew through some paper to get the hang of it. (My machine also has a speed control which is really useful for teaching young kids).
With time quickly inching closer to Valentine's Day, we had to buckle down to finish the cards. Luckily we were granted a break when a massive winter storm hit, and the entire family (including Hubby, who could watch the other kiddos) was snowed in for the day.
I had already fused a heat-activated fusible webbing to a stack of 4x6" index cards (unlined). I used Steam-a-Seam because I had it on hand, but you can also use any other heat-activated fusible (Heat n' Bond, Wonder Under, Therm-O-Web, etc). I then removed the paper backing from the fused side of the index card and placed the fusible web side of the card on the wrong side of my chosen fabric. (Using a cotton, no steam setting on my iron)
While I continued to fuse the fabric to the cards, the Monkey trimmed the fabric flush with the edges of the cards.
Once we had all of his cards fused and trimmed, we laid out a variety of stickers and mostly flat trinkets (I had some stick-on jewel hearts and puffy stickers. I collected heart and Valentine-themed stickers from the dollar store and various craft stores. The only rule was nothing directly on the edge because I didn't want him to sew over it.
After the cards were decorated, I took a piece of clear plastic (overhead projector sheets or something similar works really well), and placed it on top of the card. I happened to add a decorative thread in the top of the machine, but any thread works well.
I instructed the Monkey on sewing around the card, lining up the presser foot with the fabric edge, and marked where he wanted to stop and start so that there would be an opening left in order to put in some sparkles and sequins. We worked on speed and pivoting.
Using a funnel, he placed a small-kid-sized handful of sparkles into the open hole of the card (probably about 1/2-1 tablespoon). Then I helped him sew the opening shut, and because our clear plastic wasn't the exact same size as the card, he trimmed the plastic flush with the rest of the card.
After the cards were finished, he needed to write on them. He still needs to finish writing on the ones to his classmates, but couldn't wait to give one to my mom, who of course owned a quilt store for over 30 years and wrote books on teaching kids to sew. I'm pretty sure my heart melted at this point.
Now we just have to decorate his box to bring home the Valentines from his classmates. Can't wait for that project!

Hotel room keys have evolved from metal to plastic. Now they're turning artistic.
Starwood's Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts has hired avant-garde artists to design visually striking keycards that grant free admission to cutting-edge contemporary art museums as well as ensure entry to guestrooms. The "Unlock Art" cards, in use at a dozen Méridiens, are due at all the chain's 100-plus properties worldwide by year's end.
"We're no longer handing over a piece of plastic … it's now a piece of art" and a potential collectible, says Eva Ziegler, a senior vice president who is in charge of global branding for the chain.

PHOTO GALLERY: Hotel art gets an upgrade
The cards — artwork on the front, Méridien info on the back — also reflect luxury hotels' currrent initiatives to create distinctive personalities. They reflect Le Méridien's aim to transform itself into a haven for what Ziegler calls "creative" and "progressive" guests interested in new experiences. "Our three core values are 'chic,' 'cultured' and 'discovery,' " she says.
Hotels already participating in the "Unlock Art" program include Le Méridien Sunny Isles Beach in Florida (keys with facial close-up photos by Sam Samore give guests free admission to the edgy The Moore Space in Miami); the Shanghai Méridien (a pass to the Museum of Contemporary Art Shanghai ); and Le Méridien San Francisco (complimentary entry to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts).
The chain's other initiatives include hiring a "cultural curator," putting larger art installations on lobby doors and enlisting Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten to design breakfast menus.

Music News
Robert Siegel, host:
And we have one more anniversary today, this one in New York City where clubs can come and go in the blink of an eye, but one has been in the same dingy basement on 7th Avenue for 75 years, the legendary Village Vanguard, a jazz club known around the world.
The Vanguard's Web site says that tonight is the actual anniversary, but the club is celebrating all week.
Lara Pellegrinelli descended its famous stairs, and she has this report.
LARA PELLEGRINELLI: Ask Lorraine Gordon, the Village Vanguard's impresario, about the secret to the club's longevity. She'll give you a direct answer.
Ms. LORRAINE GORDON (Owner, Village Vanguard): It's not fancy. It's not pretentious. It doesn't serve food. It doesn't take credit cards. It doesn't allow cell phones or cameras. It doesn't do a lot of things, but it does give good music.
PELLEGRINELLI: The wedge-shaped room, which only seats 123 people, boasts more than just good music.
Mr. PAUL MOTIAN (Drummer): Good sound, beautiful sound.
PELLEGRINELLI: Drummer Paul Motian made his first Vanguard appearance with the Bill Evans trio in 1957.
Mr. MOTIAN: You can hear everything. You hear yourself better. You hear the other musicians better. And it's totally acoustic.
PELLEGRINELLI: Of the more than 100 albums recorded at the club, Motian appears on eight of them, including the Evans' classic, "Sunday at the Village Vanguard."
(Soundbite of song, "Sunday at the Village Vanguard")
PELLEGRINELLI: The Vanguard didn't start out to become one of the premier jazz clubs in the world. Lorraine Gordon's late husband, Max, actually opened the Vanguard in 1934 on nearby Charles Street. The Lithuanian immigrant who'd been raised in Oregon told filmmaker Bruce Ricker that his parents dreamed he'd be a lawyer.
(Soundbite of recording)
Mr. MAX GORDON (Founder, Village Vanguard): But I didn't want to be a lawyer. Nevertheless, in order for me to come to New York to get away from home, I had to matriculate at Columbia, which I did. I just went through the motions of matriculating. I knew I was going to leave soon.
PELLEGRINELLI: To hang out in Greenwich Village.
Ms. GORDON: He was a Bohemian. He loved writing. He hung around the Village, and poetry was the thing, and he hung out with poets in some big cafeteria that was in the neighborhood. Finally, he decided to open a place, but it wasn't a place of business, he thought. It was just a place to get the poets down so he could sit and listen to them.
PELLEGRINELLI: But he couldn't get a cabaret license to do that because the Charles Street location only had one toilet. In fact, the first time authorities came to bust him, Gordon reportedly said: But this isn't entertainment. It's poetry.
(Soundbite of recording)
Unidentified Man #1: Poem to a Rose. Red rose that grew flat. The revelry has died. And now with petals loose, you lie beside the girl, the bottle in the windowsill, the snore, the crumpled $20 bill.
PELLEGRINELLI: Literary types like Max Bodenheim helped establish the club, but a group of unknowns called The Revuers put it on the map after it moved to 7th Avenue in 1935. The Revuers included actress and comedienne Judy Holliday and the songwriting duo of Betty Comden and Adolph Green.
(Soundbite of music)
Unidentified Woman: (Singing) I find to my surprise that I would give my last penny to be the lifelong slave and spitting image of Sonja Henie.
Unidentified Man #2: It's mutiny.
Unidentified Woman: (Singing) I want to be fluffy. I want to be blonde. My cheeks must be puffy, I want an ice pond(ph). I want to go skating about on the rink. I want a cyclist. And I want to wear pink.
Unidentified Group: Oh.
PELLEGRINELLI: The slate of performers who followed includes Lenny Bruce, Miriam Makeba, Pete Seeger, Woody Allen, Harry Belafonte and Barbra Streisand.
Max Gordon only turned his attention to jazz when television began to drain his talent pool in the 1950s.
(Soundbite of applause)
Unidentified Man #3: (Unintelligible)
PELLEGRINELLI: The basement room is steeped in jazz history. Black-and-white photos of musicians who played there line the walls: Coltrane, Mingus, Miles, Roland Kirk, the Heath Brothers.
Mr. ROBERT GLASPER (Pianist): It's just an honor and a privilege to even be here and play, you know, and see those guys on the wall. I was like: Wow, I'm playing here. Tommy Flanagan just played this piano. Barry Harris played this piano. You know, so it's just - it's amazing.
PELLEGRINELLI: Pianist Robert Glasper has worked with Mos Def, Kanye West and Maxwell, but says the Vanguard is his favorite place to play.
Mr. GLASPER: I feel like the spirit of a lot of the musicians who have passed away are still here, and they're agreeing with us, and they're, like, yes, keep it alive.
PELLEGRINELLI: Glasper is one of the many newcomers the club books to do just that. And they're happy to play there, even if they can't get a bite to eat.

Let's brighten up the streets and apartment blocks this spring
Gardening author living in Spain for over 25 years
Unfortunately Spain does not in general have a reputation for pretty towns and villages. One main reason is that unfortunately there is no network of competitions for best kept towns and villages similar to those of France and England for instance.
Fortunately there are some residents of village houses and apartment blocks who take a pride in developing patios in the sky to live comfortably on their terraces , balconies and roof tops. But much more could be done especially along the coast to create a green urban environment attractive to residents and holiday makers. Fortunately our book 'Apartment gardening – Mediterranean style' has become the bible for enthusiasts for the design of attractive and productive outside living areas in the sky.
The book is full of practical guidelines, examples and appetite wetting photographs as illustrated.
'Decorated windowsill'
'An attractive green balcony'
'Small but cosy for dining in the sky'
'A comfortable low maintenance rooftop'
None of these designs would be difficult or expensive to install, especially in relation to the terrace space cost of buying the space which is so often just used for drying clothes or as an untidy storage space. Some enthusiasts have not only used plants but also attractive artefacts and some are growing daily fresh herbs fruit and vegetables very productively in small spaces.

Ajo Blanco
Our mountains are covered in almond & Olive trees, and in the season you can hear knocking echoing throughout the valleys, as campesinos, knock their Almonds from the trees. The almonds are left to dry in the sun, and then they tough outer shell is removed. The almond then has a brown skin which can be left on or removed by blanching.
Everyone has heard about the traditional red gazpacho soup, and many have tasted it. However, this recipe for cold white garlic soup or sopa de ajo blanco is just as tasty and refreshing. In fact, garlic lovers would probably vote for this soup hands down. It is easy, quick
and healthy. We've never met a dinner guest who didn't ask for seconds, so be sure to make a large batch.
Prep Time: 15 minutes Servings 4
• 4 oz (1/2 cup) blanched, peeled almonds*
• 3-4 slices stale baguette or white bread
• 3 cloves garlic
• 4 cups (32 oz) water
• 5 Tbsp extra virgin Spanish olive oil
• 3-4 Tbsp Spanish sherry vinegar
• 16-20 seedless green grapes (optional)
• salt to taste
Blanch by placing almonds into boling water for a few mins then slip off and peel skin from the Dry thoroughly with paper towel and set aside.
Peel garlic. Trim crust from bread slices if using French-style or rustic bread. Place bread in 1-2
cups cold water to soak.
While bread is soaking, place garlic and almonds into a food processor or blender. Blend on
pulse until smooth. Remove bread from water with slotted spatula and squeeze out excesswater.
Tear bread into quarters and add bread and 1 tsp salt to processor or blender. Blend on
While blending, slowly drizzle olive oil, then vinegar, and finally the water into blender or
processor. Taste. Adjust salt, vinegar and oil to taste.
Serve in small cups or glasses, top with a frozen grape and a drizzle of vinegar.
The Catastral – the record of a Spanish property?
Anyone who either owns or is planning to buy property in Spain needs to know about the Catastral value of the property (or Cadastre to use the French term). Unlike the Land Registry, which records legal ownership and with which it is often confused, the Catastral is not a legal record of ownership, but is an estimate of the capital value of the property, which is used as a base figure for a number of property taxes. The easiest way to find the Catastral Value of a property is to check the amount listed on the IBI (local property tax) invoice or to visit the Catastral office in the town hall. However, note that the value should only be given to someone who can show a registered interest in the ownership of the property or their representative, which can make comparison with your neighbour's difficult.
The value is drawn up by independent government employees using strict and complex valuation guidelines to ensure consistency. Initially, they depend upon a description of the property and its use, which is obtained by observation, licence applications and increasingly, studies of aerial photos. As the Catastral description lists the best estimates of the site's registered boundaries, obtained from historical records, title deeds, agricultural 'parcelas', planning applications and any other source where change has been detected, it can be one of the more reliable sources of information and help to settle boundary disputes and the like. However, it is by no means infallible as it will not catch all extensions and changes, ranging from integral garages to bedrooms, structural problems, and the many other alterations that can be made to a property and that affect its value.
The 'construido', gross overwall external floor area is used, with allowance for open-sided covered areas being calculated at 50% and areas under 1.5m high being ignored. This can differ substantially from the 'util' or net internal floor area, which is an internal measurement used in construction and excludes external walls and certain other items.
Since the details used in the Nota Simple and the Catastral are obtained in different ways, it is not unusual for variations between these property descriptions to occur. The most frequent problem found here is that the Land Registry is compiled at the point of construction and it is a legal nicety that the sizes recorded are given by 'declaration' and are not guaranteed or checked by the Registrar or Notary or other independent body. Also, changes to the property thereafter are often not noted, which can also affect the Catastral records where there can also be discrepancies due to human error or failure to update information.
After the size and nature of the property are determined, a rate per square metre is applied to it. This rate is an estimate of the sale value of the property, calculated from actual registered sales and other property information. Naturally, this information has to be reviewed every few years in order to keep the comparative values of neighbouring properties relatively accurate. This is done on a municipality by municipality basis, so that all neighbouring properties are valued in a similar way. Unfortunately, this can mean that values of a few years ago can become the basis for a Catastral value that may not bear any real relationship to the current value of the land and property. This is certainly the case in Estepona where values have been based on sales in 2007, when prices could be up to twice what they are now. In the past, when sale values have been increasing over the years people have been less disturbed at the low Catastral values.
However, the main concern should not be the individual Catastral value, but its relationship to those of its neighbours. This is where consistency is essential so that everybody is treated in the same way. Equally, the level of value is really of little importance as it is the multiplier that is applied, by politicians and tax authorities, that decides how much actual monetary value it has. The Catastral value is used for calculating capital gain on a property when it is sold and also for the amount of IBI or local property tax that an owner has to pay each year.
It is possible to appeal the Catastral value of a property, but only at the time of revaluation. The timescale is short and the methodology is complex, so that unless there are gross errors it can often just add more expense without an effective result.
When purchasing a property it is important to have sight of both the Land Registry and the Catastral records to ensure that any errors are noted and corrected. If this is not done, it can be that the buyer will be responsible for obtaining licenses and/or paying fines for unauthorised works or even for changing the property back to its former legal state. Whilst conscientious solicitors may endeavour to assist the client in this way, a member of the Survey Spain Network of Chartered Surveyors will often be the only one to compare the size and use of the actual property to the recorded descriptions on the Nota Simple and Catastral records. Differences in these records to the actual building are often a means of identifying potential problems of ownership and/or legality. With this knowledge the potential buyer can then instruct his or her lawyer to ensure that corrections are made prior to purchase and at the cost of the seller.
Addendum: The Spanish tax authorities have announced that they intend to review 4.2 million Catastral values this year throughout Spain. That will almost certainly add to the value and increase to the likelihood of IBI and other property related taxes being raised.
Orange & Almond Tort
Almonds and oranges are abundant in Andalucia, we are often given a bag full of oranges by neighbours and we have to be fruitful in our recipes to make the most of the glut.

How about a long walk this summer, or if not an interesting armchair read about one.
By Dick Handscombe who has combined walking Spain with gardening Spain for over 25 years.
Spain is a very special country to walk in as there is a balance between level walking on the coastal and inland plains and in the many mountain ranges that surround the central plain and , most importantly, the weather is good for walking during most of the year. Even in the summer many parts of Spain are cooler than southern Andalucia.
Walks can obviously be an early morning hour or two, a full day, a weekend or a couple of months. We have combined all in walking Spain as the best way to experience it's history, customs, cuisine, wines, gardens and natural flora and fauna in its' wild areas.
The longest walk we have done was a 52 day, mid June to early August', walk from the Bay of Biscay to the Beaches of the Med along the Pyrenean mountain range that separates Spain from France. Overall we walked 950 kilometres and the weather was amazingly kind. We only got wet three times, but on those days we were proverbably drowned. Stimulated by friends and family we have now written up the trek as ' Our 52 day retirement adventure along the Spanish Pyrenees'. The book is available from Amazon books as a soft covered book and as a Kindle version. The latter is proving to be a popular way of reading the book as it is less expensive than a traditional book.
We chose this route rather than doing the one at right angles to Santiago de Compostella as it would be quieter, more of a wilderness experience and a real adventure. In the event we met only one other long distance walker during the seven weeksas opposed to several hundred a day on the more populated walk. If you are searching for a life time odyssey consider our route. Take out two months of your early years of your retirement or if young fit into a University summer break or gap year.
We are told that the book is an interesting armchair read for the non-walker, retired walker, local stroller and serious walker alike. We hope you enjoy it.

By Dick Handscombe, Author and gardener living in Spain for 25 years.
Unfortunately many families purchasing properties in Spain do one of three things each not very appropriate for an enjoyable relaxed outdoor life in Spain –which is the main reason given by people for coming to Spain.
• Develop a replica of an urban English garden characterised by a central lawn, straight paths and edges to flower beds and age drive/car standing area. The overall design driven by wanting to look out on an attractive urban landscape from panoramic windows on dull and rainy days, or when escaping inside to escape from the evening midges rather than on designing a garden to live in.
• Develop a pool resort which is a replica of the hotel gardens that they used to stay in for a week or two a year characterised by the most visible part of the garden taken up by the largest pool and surrounding terrace possible with shade provided by large umbrellas, and generally no trees except for one or two in the boundary hedge to hide the house next door..
Many find that's great for a couple of short holidays in the sun each year but it can become a monotonous never changing view from windows, sheltered covered terraces and from under the umbrellas.
And of course even in Spain the pool will probably be only used from May to October, unless it's heated and covered with a three metre high sliding cover. And then one has a view of a large greenhouse 365 days a year!
• Attempt to develop a tropical garden like the ones they saw in Asia characterised by dramatic jungle type gardens of tropical flowering and fruiting bushes trees, climbing plants and orchids. This is possible in situations very sheltered from the scorching hot summer winds from Africa and the cold northerly winds from the north and which have a reliable water supply throughout the year.
Unfortunately such gardens can many plants if winter frosts occur in your location.
A better alternative is to develop a garden that becomes the main room of the house for most months of the year, a garden designed for living in rather than only looking at. A garden that tempts one to wander through it, to sit in the shade of mature trees in the summer and relax and eat out in sheltered sunny nooks during the cooler winter months and with the views and night time perfumes that prompts one to eat out in it on most nights of the year.
Such a garden is likely to be driven by your vision of an open air lifestyle. A vision based on a detailed analysis of what your dream life in Spain will be and the ways in which your garden design needs to make that dream come true. The alternative is to install and use daily air conditioning and central heating and again live indoors looking out on an inappropriate hostile garden!
A satisfying garden is likely to be characterised by a balance of shady and sunny spots, mature trees within the garden as well as integral with the boundary hedge , internal as well as boundary windbreaks, the pool incorporated into one of a number of smaller connected gardens, attractive internal vistas as one wanders through the garden as well as the preservation of the best distant vistas beyond the boundary walls or hedge, plants appropriate to your summer and winter microclimates, space for some seasonal organically grown fruit and vegetables – it doesn't require much space to be able to make daily harvests 365 days a year - and perhaps a corner run for one or two hens.
The above concept can be developed in very small gardens as well as in a larger space. We only have a 800 square metre garden around the house but our integrated holistic approach to it's development enabled us to soon acclimatise to the Spanish climate in a natural way.
Our book 'Your garden in Spain' includes a simple lifestyle questionnaire as the first step in designing or redesigning a Spanish garden. The rest of the book and the two sister books 'Growing healthy fruit in Spain's and ' Growing healthy vegetables in Spain – From sprouting seeds to watermelons' are designed to take the headaches out of the design, construction, planting and seasonal maintenance of your garden. Over the past twenty five years we have learned much the hard way – there is no need for you to make the same mistakes. Happy lifestyle gardening!
p.s. For convenience the books mentioned and 'Living well from our garden – Mediterranean Style' can all be obtained via Amazon Books for convenience. They would all make good Christmas presents.

October in the garden
By Dick Handscombe
Holistic gardener and author living in Spain for 25 years.
With cooler but generally sunny weather so far and the softer soil after late September and early October rains the month will be a busy garden month for me. Busy for four main reasons.
Firstly I did little gardening during September as it remained hot and I had planned three weeks of other activity.
• A restful week of carp fishing for on the Ebro. No personal best this time but a 45lb carp matched my second best and my guiding friend Nick Shattock caught a personal best of 56 pounds. Bigger fish were hooked but lost on the many invisible old tree trunk snags in midstream where the original bank of the river was before the reservoir we fished had been flooded. The amazing night skies reminded one of how local agriculturalists used to study, prior to home and street lighting and television, the patterns and movement of the moon planets and stars to determine the best days for sowings, plantings, prunings, cutting canes, mating animals etc.. When we check the dates in our purchased lunar calendar with those of the older villagers there's are uncannily similarity.
• A six day tour of Cantabria with a village pensioners coach party. Not only was it historically and scenically interesting for it provided a useful check on the extent of ecological fruit and vegetable growing. Although much of the traditional coastal horticulture of the warm coastal strip, which rarely goes below 4 or 5 degrees in the winter, had ceased as the land was now under new hotels and holiday home urbanisations remaining smallholders and city hobby growers were growing ecological vegetables for sale in weekly markets. But at a price – tomatoes for instance were 4 euros a kilo! But there was a great initiative in the Isla peninsula as this area has been turned into a regional park to control new buildings and to encourage the return of traditional rural activities to help the jobless situation. Red pepper growing was noiw doing well and the weekend before we arrived there had been a red pepper fiesta with markets, visits to growers and a common menu del dia with red peppers in all starters and main courses.
• A week spent polishing a long overdue book about our 52 day trek through the Spanish Pyrenees. This should now be available next month from Amazon Books.
Secondly the recent humid subtropical jungle conditions stimulated lantanas bougainvilleas bignonias and tall salvias into exceptional growth during my absence and they needed an urgent trimming to have paths clear before holding a paella party in the garden last Sunday.
Thirdly with temperatures still reaching the mid-twenties centigrade it's a great time for entertaining in the garden for plants are full of their autumn flush of flowers and greens are brightly coloured having had the summer dust washed off. Naturally having published my book 'Your personal guide to making Authentic Valencian Paellas' a few months ago the first festive day was a paella party with ten friends of seven nationalities. It went down well and another is planned in ten days' time.
'Now available from Amazon Books'
Naturally we followed our own advice and most of the ingredients were from the garden. These included the butter lima, runner beans, some of the azafran from our early autumn crocuses, globe artichokes to give a special taste and colour, the chicken and rabbit meat, te fresh egg to bind the meat balls, the red pepper to adorn the top and split the paella into ten helpings plus the rosemary thyme and garlic herbs.
Then back to work. Yesterday the October sowings of autumn/overwintering vegetables began with the sowing of broad bean seeds on an appropriate lunar date, 8 October, from our lunar calendar. Other sowings and plantings of plantlets during the month will be on the following dates.
Root vegetables: 21/23 October, 1" November
Leaf vegetables: 17/18 October , 26/27October
Flower vegetables: 15/16 October, 24/26 October
Fruit vegetables: 15/16 October, 11/12 November
Tomorrow the olive grove needs a strim to tidy it up and make it easier to get round the trees to harvest a few olives for bottling now and the main harvest for oil in a few weeks' time.
Then the poultry runs need a clean out to top up the compost heap and put down a new layer of rice husk litter.
Before the week is out we will also do a light pruning of untidy branches on the olive trees and citrus trees to feed the rabbits. They love them for the taste and essential vitamins and minerals. Thinking about it the remainder of the fallen carob beans also need harvesting drying to store as a winter feed.
If time will plant up some cuttings of shrubs not often seen in local garden centres to produce presents for friends.
Suspect you have a similar list of October tasks but if you are not really sure of the full range of seasonal tasks lists are included in each of our quartet of books 'Your Garden in Spain', 'Apartment Gardening Mediterranean Style', 'Growing healthy fruit in Spain' and 'Growing healthy vegetables in Spain'. With many English bookshops and book distributors now closed down due to the economic situation the most convenient ways of buying these books are the websites of Amazon Books , The London Book Depository or Santana Books. The latter are based at the entry to Mijas Pueblo so a call to 952 485838 between 10.00 and 12.00 am enable one to call in to buy books or arrange for mail order if you don't have a computer in Spain.

The Nota Simple Explained
A Nota Simple is an official extract report that contains a full property description and can be obtained from the local property title registry office or, by subscribers, over the Internet. This is a very important document in Spain, as it contains information about the legal status of a property. If you intend to buy a property of any kind, it is very important to know who is the registered owner, what is the registered description and what legal charges or restrictions are registered against the property.
The information contained in the Nota Simple includes:
*The current owner(s), their relationships and when they bought it;
*Any debts secured on it that must be paid before its ownership can be transferred e.g. mortgages, unpaid taxes, community debts, private debts, etc.;
*The boundaries of the property, though these are often hazily described as just the land owned by their neighbour;
*The total square metres of the land and the gross overwall area of all built structures;
*The use of the property (whether residential, agricultural, etc);
*The rights that others may have on the property e.g. public paths and rights of way, roads, water, sewage, etc.;
*The share of the costs of the community of owners in which it lies;
*And if you are really fortunate, the Catastral reference. (Described in another article)
Before you request a Nota Simple, you will need to provide the following information:
*The full name of the individual owner or owning company. Ideally, but not essentially, you should also have the NIE, CIF or passport number.
*The Property Registry data, which can be either the Finca number or the unique identification number: IDUFIR.
With either of these sets of information you can carry out a search of the whole of Spain and obtain details on all the property owned by an individual or company. As there can be many owners with similar names, it's best if you can restrict the search ideally to the minimum of which registry office the property is registered in.
You can obtain a Nota Simple in Spanish, from the land registry and this can be requested in person at any registry office. Alternatively, go online where requests are usually obtained within 24-48 hours. In both methods there is a small charge. Alternatively, ask somebody with a subscription to obtain information for you.
As stated above, the Nota Simple will contain information as to whether there are debts associated with the property. It is possible for debts of an individual to be attached to the property he owns although they may have no other link to the property itself. Be aware that if there are debts attached to the property, then it is essential that they are cleared before the ownership is passed over to the buyer, otherwise they will remain and become the responsibility of the new owner.
You may find, on receipt of the Nota Simple that its description is not the same as the actual property. An error in the description of either accommodation or the floor area is important and should be rectified by the seller prior to the sale. It may be that improvements have been carried out on the property and their absence on the document is sometimes an indication that work has been carried out without permission.
Inaccuracies may also mean that a mortgage valuer working for a Spanish lender or insurer could have to value on a reduced basis, as they are obliged by law to use the lesser of the actual area and that recorded in the title, whenever there is a difference between the two. Outbuildings such as garages, stores and even swimming pools should be recorded too, as this all affects the value of a property. However, unless you have an excellent grip of Spanish or are adept at dealing with Spanish bureaucracy, it is recommended that the Nota Simple is discussed with a legal expert or property professional, to make sure that all is in order and the property meets your requirements.
If you would like more information about the Nota Simple and how it could affect you, the team at Survey Spain Network is available to offer informed help and advice. We have the advantage of carrying out Acquisition Surveys of the building and being able to compare the actual property with the Nota Simple and the Catastral description (see other article) and thus make sure that differences are caught prior to purchase, so that correcting them remains the responsibility of the seller and is not transferred to the buyer, at his or her future cost.

Help and Advice for Moving to Spain
Relocating to an overseas country involves a lot or determination and focus as well as a lot of drive in order to get all of the planning involved in the move taken care of as well as going through with the actual move. Everything needs to be considered and thought through to ensure that the move goes according to plan.
Have you considered your residency in Spain? Where you will work? As well as where your bank account will be and how you will pay for aspects such as tax and insurance? It is highly important that you don't leave things to the last minute and that you plan through every part of your move to make sure that everything goes according to plan.
Below is a list of examples of some of the things that you should ensure that you do before your move to Spain:
• Take a basic Spanish course; learning the national language is essential if you are going to be living in the country, you can't just rely on English
