Laramie, Wyo. -
The University of Wyoming men's basketball team continues preparations for the 2012-13 season by hosting Fort Lewis College for an exhibition game at 7 p.m. on Wednesday in Ethete. A collaboration between the Cowboys and the Nike N7 program, the contest will be played at Wyoming Indian High School on the Wind River Reservation. The Cowboys are 42-6 (.875) in exhibition contests and currently enjoy a 21-game winning streak.
Tickets can be purchased by calling the Wyoming Athletics Ticket Office at 877-WYO-FAN1 (877-996-3261) or going online at GoWYO.com. Fans can also follow live stats and live audio of Wyoming's games through the men's basketball Gameday Central page on the website. The contest will be broadcast on the radio by the Cowboy Sports Network.
A Look at the Matchup
The Pokes crafted a resurgent year in 2011-12 with a 21-12 overall record and berth in the postseason CBI tournament for 11 more wins than the previous season. Wyoming went 6-8 in Mountain West play, including a 68-66 upset of No. 11 UNLV in early February in the Arena-Auditorium, as three players earned All-MW honors after the season. Head coach Larry Shyatt returns just two starters and six letterwinners from that squad, though, and faces a conference slate that is loaded with programs on the upswing. The Cowboys played many grind-it-out games last season, relying on a methodical offense and stingy defense. Wyoming finished sixth in the nation in scoring defense, allowing just 56.2 points per game, and was the last team in the nation to allow an opponent more than 60 points. Offensively, UW ranked in the top 40 in the nation in free throw percentage (73.9) and turnover margin (+2.5). Wyoming returns 50.3 percent of its points scored last season, 62.3 percent of its rebounds and 61.3 percent of its steals. Two of Wyoming's top three scorers from last season are back, including its top two rebounders and top two in steals.
Accomplished head coach Bob Hofman enters his 17th season at the helm for Fort Lewis, after guiding the program to a 16-12 overall record in 2011-12. The Skyhawks went 13-9 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, including wins in four of their last five regular-season games, to tie for fourth and advance to the semifinals of the RMAC tournament. Hofman has guided the Skyhawks to seven total RMAC championships and seven NCAA Division II playoff berths, including an appearance in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament in 2010-11. Fort Lewis returns six letterwinners and three starters from last season's squad that scored 69.5 points per game and allowed 67.2. The Skyhawks shot the same from the floor (44.3) as UW last season and better beyond the arc (35.7). FL's top two scorers graduated, though. Fort Lewis had a plus 2.8 rebounding margin and plus 0.5 turnover margin, thanks in part to averaging 7.5 steals per game. The program welcomes six newcomers to the team this season.
Each Team's Leaders
Wyoming will rely heavily on the senior trio of Leonard Washington, Luke Martinez and Derrious Gilmore this season. UW's two returning starters, Washington and Martinez formed quite a dynamic duo last season. Washington was one of the top big men in the conference, ranking in the top 10 of six different MW statistical categories, while Martinez hit 81 threes during the season, including one in 29 consecutive games. Gilmore steps into the starting role at point guard after serving in a backup capacity behind JayDee Luster last season. Gilmore averaged 3.1 points and 1.0 assist in 24 games a year ago. Sophomore forward Larry Nance Jr. was UW's sixth man last year and could be a starter now at the four position, while the two spot could go to fellow sophomore guard Riley Grabau, who saw extensive time last season as well. Nance averaged 4.1 points and 4.0 rebounds in 2011-12.
Fort Lewis returns three starters in senior guard Marcus Ayala, junior guard Mike Matthews and senior center Torrey Udall. Ayala led the Skyhawks with 53 steals last season and averaged 6.8 points, while Matthews was second on the team at 37 percent beyond the arc and contributed 8.2 points. Udall is the top returning rebounder at 4.1 per game and earned 16 blocks. Fort Lewis has three other players that started a game last season that could fill out its final two starting spots. Senior guard Matthew Mazarei started 10 games and was third on the team with 50 assists, while fellow senior guard Matthias Weissl made (40) and attempted (103) the most threes on the team. Sophomore center Alex Herrera had a team-high 26 blocks and pulled down 2.9 rebounds per game.
About the Series
Wednesday's meeting of the Cowboys and Skyhawks will be the first between the two programs.

Judd Apatow's Great iTunes Video Podcast for Funny People
by Alex Billington
July 9, 2009
Yesterday we debuted a brand new red band trailer for Judd Apatow's Funny People, which I expect to be one of the best movies of this entire year. It didn't feature too much new footage that we haven't seen before, which wasn't a problem because I love saving all of it for the actual theatrical experience. However, if there are a few of you dying to see more from this, Universal has posted a great 3-minute video podcast on iTunes (download link here) featuring Judd Apatow talking a bit about making this movie and as well as some new scenes. You also get to see a rare glimpse of Apatow, some 17 years ago, doing stand up comedy himself.
"As a former stand up comedian and obsessive stand up comedy fan, this movie is the culmination of my journey in comedy, so I'd like to get it right, because I will not be allowed to do it again." -Judd Apatow
There are a few great moments in this little podcast that really struck me. First off, that scene where Adam Sandler runs down Seth Rogen with his car in the parking lot. Normally, I'd say I hate that kind of humor, but it harkens back to Sandler's Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore and I laughed out loud at it. Maybe it'll work better in the context of the movie, too. And lastly, at the end, when Apatow is talking about how this is, in essence, his life project, because in his life he's been surrounded by so many funny people. It's this kind of genuineness that I think will make Funny People such an exceptional movie in the end. Download it here!

Walkthrough part 4
EditNancy Drew: Ransom of the Seven Ships Walkthrough
|It Came From the Beach...
Exit through the front door and then follow the porch to the left. As you proceed in that direction, you should have a view of a short flight of stairs leading down toward a golf cart (the one George mentioned). There's also a tool shed to the right. Finally, you're getting somewhere!
Head toward the golf cart and you'll find that you now have two points of possible interaction. At present you should only worry about a note positioned just below the seat. The writing warns that the cart has a low water level and says that you should only use the vehicle when its battery has been filled with distilled water. You can lift the seat to see the battery itself, but there's nothing you can do with it right now.
The golf cart has it made in the shade!
The shed is locked but George has the key.
Since the cart is out of commission, go ahead and investigate the tool shed that you saw. You'll find that it is locked. Upon discovering that unfortunate fact, you have a brainwave: perhaps the Gibsons kept the key at the front desk! That's as reasonable a supposition as any. Return to the front desk and talk to George first about a 9-volt battery (she hasn't seen one), then a key. She'll hand one over, though she's not sure that it's the key for the shed.
Return to the building and use the key on the lock to open it. You'll be greeted by a variety of potentially interesting objects. Along the left side is a bin where sails are stored. Ignore that for now, since you have plenty to do without worrying about going sailing (though you will get to that in awhile). To the right from that bin, you'll find a note and also some bottles of distilled water. The note explains how the water can be used.
Add the water distribution device to your inventory and grab the shovel along the door to the right. You'll need it soon. Now you're done with the shed for the time being. Backtrack to the golf cart and raise the lid on its seat to expose the battery. Examine it closely and you can place the water distribution device on the exposed battery. This will trigger a puzzle.
There are several points of interest within the old shed.
Distributing water won't be as simple as you might have thought.
As the puzzle begins, you will have several reservoirs waiting for water to be added. There are two columns with three rows each, which we will identify as Column A (on the left) and Column B (on the right). Furthermore, we'll number each of those from 1 (top) to 3 (bottom). So for example, the middle tube on the right column would be known as B2.
As you begin, all dials are in the vertical position. This means that they are closed and will not receive their share of the 60ML when you press one of the five blue buttons. To get anywhere, you'll have to open and close various dials. If you make a mistake, you can press the red button to reset the puzzle. We've outlined the process to solve the brain twister below. At each outlined step, make sure that the tubes indicated below are open and that the rest are closed, then press a single blue button:
- Open all tubes;
- Open only tubes A3, B1 and B2;
- Open only tubes A2 and B1;
- Open only tubes A1, A3, B2 and B3;
- Open only tube A1;
Now you should find your battery tubes all filled to the desired level.
This puzzle is a matter of simple mathematics.
Start by following the lower of the two paths, toward the cove.
With the water properly distributed throughout the golf cart's battery, you can use the vehicle for the game's remainder. Any time you want to start driving it, just get close and click on the steering wheel. You perspective will change so that you are looking down at the golf cart from overhead. Now you can press and hold the mouse button along one of the paths to send the cart putting in that general direction. There are two paths immediately available, one leading sharply toward the left and the other leading toward the lower left.

Sender Name in email notificationsAsked by 2ezy on May 25, 2013 at 08:50 AM
In the email notifications beside the sender name option you can choose any field that you have listed in your form.
Is it posible to be able to add 2 options in this field?
Thanks Mark
JotForm Support
Hi Mark,
You meant add 2 Sender Names?
The closest means to achieve this is by using hindden box field in your form. Put 2 Names as the default value of the hidden box field.
When you go to the form's notification email, the hidden box field should be among the selectable in the "Sender Name" option.
So, when you received the notification message, the sender should contain 2 names.
Hope this help. Inform us you have further inquiry.
Hi Jonathan,
Ok so if I have say 2 fields called name and say location. Now the answers for each of these will be different for each person filling in the form. Lets say someone fills in the form and his name is David and location is Sydney. Is it posible to get those 2 answers in the sender field. (ie David Sydney) From your reply above it looks like it is not posible but thought I would just ask anyway.
Thanks Mark
JotForm Support
Hi Mark,
Unfortunately, that isn't possible for now. You may consider using them in your Subject Line instead. In Subject Line, this is possible.

I was arguing
with the scarecrow.
His voice
was like a wall
of sand coming
closer and closer.
He had corn
on his breath
but no mouth
to speak of.
His mind
was a straw stalk
in the wind,
all the colours
of a golden
rainbow, there,
but not there,
even his pinstripes
And I was saying
to the scarecrow,
"We end,
we begin."
I was telling him
the true names
of all the dead.
I was asking
a stupid question:
"Where's the crow
inside my head?"
Which he thought
quite funny,
a perpetual grin
on his dried lips,
his eyes seeing
into the far distance,
a tear forming
in the new silence
that summer, and he
impeccably dressed.
—from Rattle #35, Summer 2011

French Paper Company and CSA Design were honored to collaborate with Artist/Illustrator/Designer David Plunkert on a small artist book promotion David Plunkert Posters On French Paper.
This collection of 36 posters is selected from a 15-year labor of love by David Plunkert for Theatre Project, a pioneering experimental Baltimore theater company. Mr. Plunkert's expressive imagery for the theater always hits its mark, whether promoting classical Greek dramas or contemporary dance exhibitions. The posters themselves are timeless examples of one artist's mastery of illustration, type design, and printing. Each year he creates at least four posters for the series and adopts stylistic direction different from the previous years. This book includes nine series of four posters paired with papers and techniques that best reflect Plunkert's diversity.
David Plunkert Posters On French Paper is printed by Franklin Press on six different French Paper stocks: Kraft-Tone Manilla Yellow and Ledger Green, Speckletone Kraft, Pop-Tone Whip Cream and Tangy Orange, and Dur-O-Tone Newsprint White. The book also incorporates the unusual collation of French folds, perforations, and an exposed perfect bound glue-edge stitched inside a wrap-around cover. The result is a small impactful paper art object with pages that can also be removed and shared as postcards or decorations.

SAN DIEGO – If tonight's Chargers game is a pity party, don't invite Philip Rivers.
"Nobody should feel sorry for me, really," Rivers said. "I have an opportunity to play quarterback in the NFL, live here and play here."
But the here and now isn't pretty. The last-place Chargers (1-4) welcome the defending Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos (4-1) with a litany of lousy numbers.
The locals have lost three straight overall and 10 in a row, one off the franchise record, to AFC West foes. A season which started with promise has dissolved into a series of blown leads and in-game cart rides.
So maybe there's sympathy for the Chargers' plight. Losing Keenan Allen, Danny Woodhead, Manti Te'o and Jason Verrett has some feeling blue.
Except those with empathy don't cash NFL checks. The Broncos are seeking a rebound win and couldn't care less about the Chargers' woes.
"They have a couple of injuries that have crippled the offense a little bit, but still they have been able to be productive," said Denver's Von Miller, MVP of the Broncos' Super Bowl victory over Carolina in February.
With Miller leading the race to the pocket, the Chargers' offensive line has a monumental challenge.
What the men up front don't need is the guy behind them, Rivers, yapping at Miller. The two jabber during games and does Rivers really want Miller's engine revved?
"I try not to get him riled up any more than he already is, because that puts our tackles in an even tougher spot," Rivers said.
Miller, second in the league with 6.5 sacks, is a load. His 11 sacks of Rivers is his most against any quarterback.
"I think he's a heck of a player," Rivers said. "He plays the position the way I would want to coach someone to play it, or the way I would play it. It's all in respect, and I hope he feels the same way."
Status quo won't work for the Chargers. They've lost late leads in all four of their losses and Sunday might have been the worst loss.
With the Chargers poised to tie the Raiders in the game's closing minutes with a field goal, holder Drew Kaser muffed the snap.
Imagine Lucy positioning the football for Charlie Brown and you get the sense of what happened next.
"It's the NFL, we're not guaranteed to win the Oakland game had we drilled the field goal," Rivers said. "Who knows what's going to happen in that game, but we gave (the Chiefs and Saints games) away. And that's what really drives me crazy."
Go crazy folks if thinking the Chargers might flip their recent reputation. Instead, a team which hasn't made the playoffs in five of the past six seasons resembles last year's 4-12 version instead of something fresh.
What's stale is Mike McCoy's stint as a head coach. One doesn't drop 16 of 21 games and not hear about it. While there's blame to be distributed in various directions, it's McCoy who's absorbing the business end of the arrows.
"The only time that's brought up is with you guys," McCoy said of his job security. "I'm worried about playing the Denver Broncos, and that's all I'm worried about."
Pity that.

Spaghetti Squash with Bacon, Garlic, and Parmesan
I know. You're confused. So am I.
I roasted this weird vegetable squash thing. Then I put it in my mouth.
Only, not. Weird vegetable squash things are actually quite tasty. Who knew?
This was my first time cooking or eating a spaghetti squash and, I'm not going to lie, I was scared. I figured if I tossed in some bacon, garlic, and Parmesan that things would work out. After all, bacon makes everything taste good, right?
Funny story: spaghetti squash actually taste just fine without the bacon. Sprinkle on some salt and pepper and I could eat it straight from the pan. Of course, adding the bacon doesn't hurt things.The squash has this slightly sweet, earthy flavor. Earthy in a good way, not earthy in a dirt way. Earthy in a "this is what I imagine Fall would taste like if I didn't already imagine it tastes like pumpkin pie" sort of way.
This was so filling and would easily feed my family of four as a main dish. Add in a salad and some garlic bread, and you have a healthy, scrumptious dinner.
Spaghetti Squash with Bacon, Garlic, and Parmesan
1 spaghetti squash, around 4 pounds
4 slices bacon, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Parmesan cheese, shaved or grated, as much as you like
salt and pepper, to taste
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil.
Wash the spaghetti squash and slice off the end with the stem. Stand it up with the flat cut side down. Slice the squash in half lengthwise. (Use your muscles, squash can be difficult to cut!)
Scrape the seeds from the center of the squash and discard (or save for roasting and eating as a snack). Sprinkle the inside of the squash with salt and pepper.
Place on the prepared pan cut side down and bake for 30-45 minutes or until a sharp knife can be easily inserted with only a little resistance.
Set aside.
Fry the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Add the garlic to the bacon and continue cooking one minute or until fragrant.
Use a fork to scrape the flesh from the squash in long strings. Place in a bowl.
Add the bacon and garlic to the bowl of squash. You can drain the bacon first or add the grease right to the squash if you're feeling naughty.
Salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle on some Parmesan cheese.

LuaLua would welcome Pool stay
Blackpool striker Lomana LuaLua says he would welcome a long-term deal at Bloomfield Road if it was offered.
Last Updated: 07/12/11 3:00pm
Blackpool striker Lomana LuaLua says he would welcome a long-term deal at Bloomfield Road if it was offered.
The 30-year-old is contracted with the Tangerines until the summer and has made five appearances for the Championship club since joining in September.
But the frontman is open to becoming a more permanent fixture should the opportunity arise.
LuaLua told the Blackpool Gazette: "I am contracted until the end of the season and that is all I am concentrating on. If I impress people and the club want to offer me a new deal, then great, why not?
"I am very happy here and really enjoying my football. But my long-term future isn't something I am thinking about too much.
"I just want to concentrate on trying to get Blackpool to the Premier League."
LuaLua is confident the Seasiders can bounce straight back into the top flight following their relegation at the end of last season.
"Everyone inside the dressing room wants that but the main question is, 'Can we do it?' I think we can," he added.
"I know some Blackpool fans probably thought they'd only have one season in the Premier League and might never get back, but the players feel we can do it.
"I have already seen how many good footballers there are in the dressing room and we have a manager who knows how to get a club promoted to the top flight.
"We've got some important games coming up, starting with a tough test at Southampton, but there is no reason why we can't keep doing what we are doing. We are seventh and in a good position, but we need more consistency if we're going to get into the top places and stay there.
"That is what we are all striving for. I hope we can do it because I want to be part of history here. I want to achieve things and help change this club for the better."

B y J e f f S m i t h
LOST IN THE flood of verbiage that attended the finale of the O.J. Simpson trial was a rare few minutes of video from an unexpected quarter. ABC's 20/20 magazine of the air--and air is what most often comprises this pseudo-journalistic offering--presented an affecting profile of Christopher Reeve as he faces life on life-support.
In case you missed it: Reeve broke his neck in an equestrian accident last June, and wound up a high-quad. That's gimp jargon for a spinal cord injury in the region of the second or third cervical vertebra. What it means is that Reeve, who won his present fame playing Superman in the movies, cannot move a muscle below his neck, and at present cannot even breathe on his own. His wheelchair carries a ventilator that supports his respiration. The chair itself is maneuvered by Reeve's mechanically assisted breath: a soft puff of CO2 turns the chair left; a stronger puff pulls right.
Of course if Reeve's ventilator tube comes unstuck, he can't turn left or right, but then it wouldn't matter because he'd suffocate and die within minutes. Fun thought, huh?
Reeve said it wasn't, really. In fact the first couple of times it happened in the hospital he panicked and burnt up a lot of oxygen needlessly. The alarm wired to the machine summoned the nurses in time to save him, and since then, Reeve has learned to remain calm and wait without hyperventilating. How'd you like to try that one yourself?
I know I wouldn't, and I'm a gimp of 14 years' experience, schooled in the hard knocks of the school of hard knocks. But not as hard a knock as Christopher Reeve took when his horse ass-holed and played crack-the-whip with him. (For those of you uninitiated in the linguistic arcana of the western horseman, to ass-hole is--for a horse and rider--to take a head-first tumble, describing a 180-degree somersault. The first and most conspicuous facet of both equine and homo erectus to present itself in an other-than-usual posture is the nether region: hence the term.)
Anyway, when the horse's ass took the great circle route over its own north pole, Reeve's hand got tangled in the headstall and he was literally whipped head-first into the turf, with nothing to break the fall. He lay there helpless and unable to breathe, and would have died, were it not for a doctor who witnessed the fall and gave expert first-aid.
But it's been the second- and third-aid that has made the big difference to Christopher Reeve, and for the man he shapes up to be from here on out.
Which is quite some Superman.
There are, after all, gimps and gimps. As in, there are gimps, and then there are gimps. I belong to the former category; Reeve to the latter. I got off light, paralyzing myself from the chest down, but leaving lots of systems fully functional, or almost. Reeve got as gimped as it gets--just one vertebra this side of what results from a proper hanging. The hangman's noose, properly tied and tested, simply turns its occupant into a C1 quadriplegic. It severs neurological connection to the body, including the respiratory system--like in Reeve's case--but also the heart.
That's all Reeve has left to lift him above a lynching victim, but heart is something this man has in abundance. I hope it continues to serve him as well for the next 40 years as it has the past four months. I don't know which is harder: the initial shock of realizing how savagely your life has been rearranged, or the long-haul of coping with limitations. Support systems, particularly in the form of significant others, family and friends, tend to huddle around in the trauma of recent injury, but run out of stamina as it becomes more apparent this is a long-term proposition.
For now, Christopher Reeve appears to be wonderfully supported by his wife, Dana, and his kids. I hope this lasts, as I hope his own strength holds and grows.
It shows every sign that it will, and this encourages me, because we gimps need new recruits like Superman. He's attractive, articulate and energetically committed to trying to raise public awareness and political clout to apply to the problems of the quarter-million Americans with spinal cord injuries. Where perhaps he can serve best is in speaking the truth about the condition--it's not about walking again someday, it's about living today and every day--and putting ridiculous stereotypes to rest.
Rock Hudson died of AIDS, but before he did, even though he hid his illness in shame for too long, his fame shed light into hitherto darkened closets of ignorance. Christopher Reeve isn't trying to hide, he's going public and promising a good fight. But don't misapprehend the battle facing him. His own struggle to stay alive and sane and happy in an immobile body is purely his own. His battle to help those who will follow him into the fraternity of the "physically challenged" must overcome a social stigma that while not as virulent as AIDS phobia, is stronger for its subtle, silent nature.
Glad to have you aboard, Chris: and sorry we had to get acquainted under these circumstances.
Oh, and Baba: nice piece of work. I particularly liked the part where you didn't ask Reeve what kind of tree he'd like to be.

About MeThough exclusively an art nude model, interested in branching out. Would most eagerly like to try my hand at a few genres including Glamour, Fashion, Lifestyle, Pin-up plus all things quirky and strange. Always looking for work, especially the kind that pays.
Quite the geek, love sci-fi, fantasy and magic; as well as playing with stage makeup, costumes and body paint. I've spent my spare time spinning poi, performing with a burlesque troop, attending dance classes and doing a bit of yoga. Don't know if it is relevant to the task at hand but can crochet and occasionally link (that is, make chainmail).
To add to the mix, have mildly hyper-extensive joints, which makes me extra bendy in some ways. However, do lack the formal training to be able to put my own foot on top of my head (working on it).
As a time saving heads up, let me mention my body art now so that there aren't any surprises during the interview process, have four piercings in each ear, a healed over bridge piercing and 3 tattoos, one of which covers most of my upper right arm.
Please feel free to PM me on MM and will provide further contact info from there.

NOTE: The article and excerpt below originally appeared in the Spring 2015 Issue of The Bushwick Observer. Reprinted with permission from Ken Kern, author/editor.
A 92 year old woman is not the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the Bushwick arts scene. Yet she will be right in the middle of this year's Bushwick Open Studios.
|Photo credit: Alicia Diamond, Photographer
Ms. Pan married Luo Bangyan in 1947 when they both were living in China. They were still in China when Ms. Pan retired. At that time, she thought she might try traditional Chinese watercolor painting. She had never picked up a brush. Judging by the paintings now hanging in her Bushwick apartment she was obviously meant to paint. When Ms. Pan and Mr. Luo came from China to New York in 1992 they settled in Chinatown. Ms. Pan became active in the Chinese-American Planning Council's senior center as a volunteer. She worked there from 1993 until 2006 when at the age of 83, she felt she had done enough working.
A year later Ms. Pan and Mr. Luo moved to Bushwick finding a home in the Plaza de los Ancianos senior housing building operated by the Ridgewood Bushwick Senior Citizens Council (RBSCC).One of the services provided by the RBSCC is free art lessons. The senior artists are taught oil painting by Christopher LoPresti Jr. Ms. Pan joined the group. Mr. LoPresti said of Ms. Pan, "she never misses a class. She's one of the students who works outside the class." Ms. Pan paints five days a week, splitting her time between oils and watercolors. Her advice to seniors is applicable to anyone, regardless of age or national origin. "Painting," says Ms. Pan, "is the best choice for maintaining the mind and the health."Ms. Pan's painting can be seen among the saveartspace billboards during the month of June.

Saveartspace.org is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating outdoor public displays of art by transforming advertising billboards into art media. Saveartspace was created… by Bushwick residents Travis Rix and Justin Aversano in part to provide exposure to lesser known artists in Bushwick. …They wanted to create a shift from the commercialism that seemed to be everywhere to aesthetics. They wanted the art to be by the people in Bushwick who were affected by the billboard content. They wanted to offer exposure to Bushwick's lesser known artists. During Bushwick Open Studios, eleven artists' work will be displayed by saveartspace. Eight of the eleven are Bushwick residents. One of the artist's featured is Ms. Pan Cui Hua, a resident of the Plaza de los Ancianos senior housing building operated by the Ridgewood Bushwick Senior Citizens Council (RBSCC).
Excerpted from an article by Ken Kern (Spring 2015, Bushwick Observer)
The artist's billboards are on Flushing Avenue, Wilson Avenue, Wyckoff Avenue, and Bogart Street. The works will be displayed through June 28. See Saveartspace's map.

Atlanta, GA – Scibility Media – 10/23/2014.
This article discusses three companies in the education industry: Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCQQB: SIBE), Strayer Education, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRA) and Career Education Corp. (NASDAQ: CECO)
Investors can get so distracted by the in-the-news sector that they completely fail to capitalize on the industries that are really making good, but quiet progress.
Education is one of those industries and by all accounts there is no other sector that is "more progressive" at the moment. Technology has changed everything, and not just the invention of the calculator and computer but the entire digital superhighway. Presently there's a great push on by the education industry to mature and become the anchor or "meeting point" for practical functionality and the digital universe.
A recent research report from Coleman Parkes, which was commissioned by Ricoh Europe, cites the big changes in the industry. Companies are now transitioning from a basic digital setup and making progressive moves towards digital maturity.
It's a transition that means as much for revenues as it does for dividends and smart investors do their portfolios well by keeping watch for those bright companies in the space. The findings reveal that more education leaders see digital maturity as a key priority (80 per cent) than representatives from other sectors2.
These industry leaders are also "confident that they can reach digital maturity within the next two years, with 34 per cent believing they will accomplish the move by 2016 and 71 per cent expecting to have achieved the goal by 2019."
From an investing perspective it means that the companies that provide value and growth potential should be important criteria for selection.
Talk to public companies, in real-time, online, anytime.
Companies like Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCQQB: SIBE) provide a window into the space. A premier education company working in the K-12 sector, SIBE has raised its profile in recent months.
The company recently partnered with a LoudCloud top bring education and learning to the cloud. This move now means that Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCQQB: SIBE) and its Blended Schools Network (BSN) will now anchor the LoudCloud learning management system (LMS). On a pract8ical level it means that SIBE's BSN content library is now expanded to 212 courses from 192.
Other companies are showing their stuff too. Strayer Education, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRA) which provides post-secondary education services has seen its fortunes change in recent months. The company credits improved enrollment numbers for its improved Q2 2014 fiscal numbers. The company's shares are up 75% this year and by all accounts there are some quarters on Wall Street that are betting big on for-profit education.
Career Education Corp. (NASDAQ: CECO) recently released its Q2 2014 numbers and cited several areas where the company improved. The company's culinary arts department saw a 3.9% improvement in enrollment. The company also reported that the Higher Learning Commission acted to continue its regional accreditation of American InterContinental University ("AIU").
Higher education is definitely in the march to a more digitally mature future. The big question is whether investors wise up to the industry's growth potential and capitalize?
Companies like Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCQQB: SIBE), Strayer Education, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRA) and Career Education Corp. (NASDAQ: CECO) are definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Eventide ULTRACHANNEL (Download) Product Description
Professional Audio Engineering For All
UltraChannel™ is a high-precision channel strip that includes several feature-packed versions of Eventide's legendary effects, all in one plug-in. Whether mixing or mastering, regardless of genre, UltraChannel is the ultimate tool to make your tracks and mixes come to life. It not only has industry benchmark performance, but is also the most versatile channel strip available due to our exclusive FlexiPath™ routing, which allows processors to be ordered based on desired workflow.
The Secret Sauce of Mixing
UltraChannel shines in carving out space for any instrument or vocal to sit just right in the mix. There are an infinite number of ways to generate the exact tone, dynamics and frequency characteristics you're seeking. Additionally, through its support for side-chaining, you can use an alternative audio source to color the characteristics of your main signal. It wouldn't be an Eventide if it didn't also feature micro pitch functionality (from our flagship H8000 hardware) to thicken or increase the stereo spread of any instrument or vocal.
Allows drag and drop for reordering the signal path of the top level components (O-Pressor, compressor/de-esser, EQ, Gate) for ultimate flexibility and experimentation.
Soft-Saturation and Transformer Emulation
The output module of UltraChannel contains a model of an analog transformer which can be driven into saturation. When subtly used, it provides distinction for signals of low frequency content. When driven hard, it recreates classic transformer core saturation.
Eventide O-Pressor Comes with two built-in compressors, one with de-essing and side-chaining, the other is the unique O-Pressor. Derived from of our legendary Omnipressor™, the O-Pressor adds character and extreme compression to your signal-processing arsenal.
5-Band Parametric EQ
Eventide UltraChannel 5-Band Parametric EQ Covers the entire audio spectrum allowing you to edit the Frequency, Gain, and Q of each of the 5 bands Over 200 Presets
Over 200 Presets
Includes wide range of Factory Presets, many created by Eventide artists, tailored to signal sources such as guitar, bass, kick drum, snare, piano, strings, synths and vocals. They make exploiting UltraChannel's enormous processing power easy to deploy.
Micro Pitch Shift & Stereo Delays
Micro Pitch Shift & Stereo Delays Apply Eventide's patented pitch shifting to any source and control the panning and delay spread. Runs in parallel with a pair of delays that allow you to feed its signal back into any of the other modules.

|By Hiroakira Fengxian
|Part of the Fushichō: Saga of the Five Gods continuity.
|Colonial Domestic Force, Fubai Dushi District Squads
|General information
Currently unknown
|Notable members
Hiroakira Fengxian, Bao Tai
Currently unknown
Fanon:Fubai Dushi
Fire Nation
Military Support, Security Guards, Law Enforcement, Public Force, Riot Control
To enforce law in its colonies in the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation uses a variant of the Domestic Force. All of the larger and more important colonies have a number of Colonial Force Squads to protect them, with large cities like Fubai Dushi requiring nearly a dozen or more. Each Squad oversees a district of the city, each is led by a Captain, and all are led by a Commander for each city. In addistion to keeping the peace, some squads can be called upon to act as reinforcement for military operations in the nearby provinces, although with one notable exception this is normally rare.
The Officers of Fubai Dushi's Colonial Force are more or less along the lines of paramilitary or SWAT, as they have to deal with incredibly high crime and insurgency rates, which is why they usually have access to what most would consider "heavy weaponry" and full body armor. Many of those who make up the force these days however have been described as commonly being lazy, cowardly and/or corrupt. Only a handful of the officers are honest, though frequently the wealthy of the city bribe the corrupt members of the squads into performing their duty (usually as a result of some crime being committed against a member of their family). In addition to law enforcement and military activities, the Colonial Force ironically acts as the Fire Brigade.
General operation
In contrast to the normal operations of the Fire Nation's military, the city's Colonial Force does not operate as a cohesive unit normally. The command of the divisions are generally left to the discretion of its particular Captain, who commonly runs it whatever way he/she sees fit, allowing for the change of a division's traditional duties to an entirely new set and even the creation of a separate institution connected to the division.
The only general authority to call forth a combined front would be that of an edict from the Governor, or more often the Captain-Commander. It is not uncommon for Captains to not see each other as an entire group for long periods of time.
In addition to the standard swords, spears, halberds, bows, and Firebenders, officers in the Colonial Force tend to carry a Chukenu, a type of repeating crossbow. By pulling a hand lever, the bolts in the magazine are loaded, strung, and fired at a rate of 10 bolts every 15 seconds. Over time advances in Fire Nation technology have improved the power and accuracy of the chukenu, enough that most non-firebending officers carry one with them at all times, as well as a spare magazine or two. Regular recurved crossbows are also available for those seeking greater power and accuracy and aren't concerned with long reload times.
The 12th Division, serving as the city's Riot Force, uses heavy armor, interlocking shields and long pikes.
In recent years, the Colonial Force has acquired tanks as a response to the Rangyi Rebellion, and every division has at least two. The quality of said tanks however, largely depends on how favored that particular division is by the local administration. Thus, the division of District 9, who's captain has been targeted for asassination by the Governor for years, has only two early prototype tanks, which are very prone to breakdowns and engine failures, and the squad has a notably difficult time affording replacement parts.
As with the main military, there a number of ranks within the Colonial Force.
List of Captains
- 1st Division: Zhi Wei Yong: Commander-captain of the other Squads. His ego is enormous, and he never tires of hearing his own voice or exaggerated stories of his "victories". Zhi believes himself to be dashing, manly, charismatic, courageous, sexy, and an outstanding leader, but in fact he's arrogant, cowardly, bumbling, incompetent, vain, cocky, sexist, and painfully, painfully stupid. Although he is corrupt and in the Governor's pocket, his ego and delusions of heroism makes him draw the line at outright treason. Most of his tactics involve sending his men (often Squad 9) on suicide missions for pointless goals, claiming there is no greater way to prove one's loyalty to their superior officer than to die for him. He is an above-average firebender, but his bumbling and flair for unnecessary theatricality and darring-do often screw over his fighting ability. In fact, it the only reason he seems to have gotten his position is because Governor Tao sees him as a good puppet. Zhi also believes men are superior to women at everything except housework and cleaning, and the few women in Squad 1 are given desk jobs and made to wear revealing miniskirts. Yong also considers himself quite the ladies man, although none of the women he's hit on so far (prostitutes included) have accepted his advances, leading to embarrassing rumors of a non-existent sex life and impotence.
- 2nd Division: Zhenfan: A colorful and eccentric man, Zhenfan, called Zhen by everyone, likes to kill the mood with his trademark brand of dark humor. Zhen is something of a loner and often makes himself a pest to normal society. That said, he is proud of his working-class background, and openly disdains people he considers "soft". Zhen runs a tight ship while on duty and is uncompromising: his officers can either submit to his authority, or they can get the hell out. He goes after targets with an almost Ahab-like obsession, and can be almost violent in his self-reliance.
- 3rd Division: Baiji: A burly, brutal, and stocky thug. One of Governor Tao's henchmen, he seems to have no conscience and delights in using violence against the weak. Although he is reasonably intelligent, he often lets his anger get the better of him.
- 4th Division: Kumiho Shachiko: She is one of the most mysterious Captains in Fubai Dushi since her sly smile and slitted eyes, combined with her heavy use of sarcasm and mocking politeness, make it very difficult to discern what she's thinking. Many find her demeanor and appearance rather unsettling, and combined with her piercing psychological insight and her ability to find out almost anything, there are very few who are willing to trust her. Kumiho seems to be fully aware of the effect she has on others and more than once has been seen toying with peoples' emotional states for her own amusement. Although she is technically on Governor Tao's payroll, considering her ability to find out secrets this may be more along the lines of blackmail payoffs than graft, and it's unsure where her true loyalties or motives lay. Although physically she seems to be in her early twenties, she's supposedly held the position of captain for several decades! Kumiho's talent is in gathering information, and as such she is the Head of the Intelligence Depertment in addition to her post as captain. She frequently insinuates to people that she may very well know their deepest, darkest secrets and likes to toy with and occasionally blackmail adulterous spouses in particular. She also seems to know what is happening anywhere in the world at any given time, although where Kumiho gets this knowledge and what she plans to do with it only she alone knows. She likes to tease people, and sometimes playfully flirts with others. She has taken something of a particular curious interest in her fellow captain Hiroakira Fengxian, who frequently borrows reading material from her vast library. Although she is said to be a particularly skilled firebender, she's almost never seen using it, and prefers to psychomanipulate her opponents. She is also good at disguise, and seems to be able to appear and vanish at will. Her favorite foods include fried tofu, sweet red beans, liver, and rice.
- 5th Division: Dongmu: A rather violent former Army Officer, Dongmu is a man who does not hesitate to cross professional and ethical boundaries in pursuit of his own vision of justice, especially when the law is poorly served by inept bureaucracy. He adheres absolutely to his own code of ethics. He is completely incorruptible, is devoted to protecting and avenging the victims of violent crime and when pursuing criminals, tries to minimize the danger for innocent bystanders as much as possible. Even so, his fight against criminals is ferocious and merciless and he shows no hesitation or remorse at killing them, justifying his actions by claiming it "Gets results". He sees things in black-and-white terms: there are good guys and there are bad guys, and the bad guys must be punished, and has little use for any "official rules" of conduct. As a result, the District 5 Market is safe from violent crime, as nobody is willing to start trouble. Dongmu shows open disgust at the rampant corruption in the city, and is even willing to go after corrupt fellow officers.
- 6th Division: Ping Yi: A second-generation public force officer, Ping Yi's father also used to captain Squad 6, and it seems corruption runs in the family as well. When he first started as a patrolman he was honest and tough, but soon started taking heavy bribes from criminals to look the other way. Soon he was extorting local business owners and shopkeepers for protection money. Even in spite of his corruption, Ping Yi refuses to directly involve himself in criminal rackets, he keeps his promises, and takes pride in keeping the streets of the 6th District clean of hoodlums and violent crime. In his mind, he believes he does his duty in keeping the general public safe (and damned well too), so why shouldn't the general public provide him with a little extra income?
- 7th Division: Cheng Fu: A stuffy and beurucratic man, Cheng Fu is a conservative man who prefers to do things "by the book". The captain is in failing health, due to his post being smack-dab in the middle of Smog Forest, a stretch of the city comprised mostly of steel mills and factories which still bealch out plenty of coal smoke despite the recent economic downturn. His hacking cough and frequent headaches make this man cranky and irritable, or it could also likely be his shrewish wife.
- 8th Division: Chun Kuk Xingzhe: A tough guy with a sense of honor and a belief in tough justice, he has values reminiscent of a Wild West sheriff. A good acquaintance of Captain Fengxian and 2nd Lt. Yori, the two share a mutual level of trust and respect, and Chun even bent the rules to send Hiro reinforcements at the Battle of Blood Road.
- 9th Division: Hiroakira Fengxian. The youngest captain to have ever served in the Colonial Force, as well as the highest-ranking noble to hold a position, 15-year-old Archduke Hiroakira Fengxian is rather easy-going and nonchalant about his duties. He has low recruitment standards, requiring that candidates can fight well and aren't too pushy about timely payment. The governor has repeatedly cut funding to the 9th Division in an effort to leave Hiro vunerable, so the captain has had to make deals with local criminal bosses in order to gain any income at all, often in the form of grafts and bribes. Guarding the 9th District slums and the outlying Rice farms is tough enough, especially when one considers that Division 9 is the one most often sent into battle around the province, in effort to pacify uprisings against the Fire Nation. Despite this and the almost weekly attempts on his life, Hiro maintains an ever friendly and jovial attitude, and crime drops whenever he's around. Although this may be attributited to the fact that Hiro causes massive destruction whenever he gets into a fight, so no one in their right mind is willing to give him the excuse needed to start one. The 9th Division is staffed by a rather colorful variety of individuals, often people whom Fengxian has recruited on a whim. Among the 9th's ranks are former fishermen, farmers, gangsters, prostitutes, serial killers, mercinaries, bounty hunters, retired underground martial arts fighters, and earthbenders who have defected to Hiro for personal reasons. These earthbenders know enough to not advertise their elemental powers, and Hiro does his best to hide their identities to protect them from arrest.
- 10th Division: Jai: A whiney, sniveling, cowardly, rat-faced little weasel, he lost his position as captain of the 5th District and transferred to the much less desirable 10th when he ruined one of the Governor's scams; a scheming backstabber who's looking for any opportunity to gain his position back. The Tenth Division also has to regulate the Entertainment and Red Light districts.
- 11th Division: Heji Okita: He hides his compassion behind a cold and ruthless front. A brilliant strategist and fighter, he has a real knack for battle. When dealing with enemies, Okita is practical, direct and reckless. Okita refuses to have anything to do with the government's corruption, and as a result has been delegated to overseeing Old Town. He is openly critical and stern toward the captain of the 9th Division and his method of running his Squad. The officers of the Eleventh Division also serve as prison guards, and the HQ is across the street from the prison.
- 12th Division: Arieh Shishizi: Another former Army Officer, she doesn't say why she was reassigned to Fubai Dushi's Colonial Force. A fierce warrior and an outstanding commander, she is a brutal but efficient taskmaster, relentlessly drilling her men in the art of war and combat. Under her leadership, the Twelfth Division has become an elite fighting force, a group of powerful men and women who never give ground, never show weakness, and look death square in the eye without flinching. Although just a single officer is physically more than a match for five average men, working as a group they are nearly invincible, even able to challenge multiple benders. Shishizi and her men live by a strict code of honor and comradre, and are fiercely loyal to the Fire Nation.
