Petzval Artist: Portraits from Adam Bronkhorst2014-05-05 3 Share Tweet
Adam Bronkhorst is a Brighton-based photographer who focuses on people and portraiture. He teaches all kinds of photography through different means – using a DSLR, studio lighting and even film cameras. His portfolio of work is so stunning, we decided to crown him as one of our Petzval Artists. We let him test the new Petzval lens to its full potential and the results are just beautiful.
Tell us a bit about yourself and how you got into photography.
My name is Adam Bronkhorst and I shoot (photograph) people for a living. I LOVE portraiture and interacting with people. It may be through corporate head shots, weddings or editorial portraits for magazines. Either way I'm happy shooting people and finding out their story. I've always loved photography ever since I was a kid. I loved playing around with my mum's SLR, and trying to focus it as a little boy; photography has always been a part of my life since then. I've written a couple of books about photography (one on phone photography and another on lo-fi film photography). I regularly shoot for newspapers and magazines as well as big name brands and I teach photography workshops as well.
How was it shooting with the New Petzval lens?
It took me a while to get used to the lens, as it's a really unusual lens for me. It got a lot of attention at first when I started to use it, which was good in a way as it broke the ice and got me chatting to people, and gave me an excuse to take their photo. I like working close to people and really interacting, so the 85mm focal length was a bit out of my comfort zone as I really had to stand back, but I love pushing myself so that was all good. It also takes a while to get used to the sweet spot of focus smack bang in the middle of the frame. I spent most of the time shooting without the aperture rings in, as the images look so great with such a shallow depth of field and it's got great focus drop off, although you really need to be spot on with your manual focus. I really experimented when I was away with my wife and kids, but also managed to use the lens for a few portrait shoots including a studio shoot and I took it to a wedding, I'm really pleased with the results and got a load of varied images from different situations, so it was a great 'road test' and brilliant fun.
What do you love about film photography?
To be honest, I know I shouldn't say this, but I've fallen out of love a little with film photography. Don't get me wrong – it's a fantastic medium and capable of incredible results, but I'm just loving digital at the moment. Which is why I was so pleased that the lovely people at Lomography have introduced the Petzval lens that I can use on my camera. This way I get the best of both worlds.
In your opinion, what makes the perfect portrait?
Well I think the perfect portrait captures a little of the subject's personality and makes the viewer want to find out more. The image has to be interesting and from a photographers point of view, it should be good fun to shoot and you should have more of an understanding about the person after you take the image, than you do before.
Have you had any difficult or challenging situations throughout your photography career?
I think in any career / job / shoot there are always challenging situations, but it's how you overcome them and what you do to get the shot that sets the great photographers apart from the good photographers.
What piece of advice would you give to someone wanting to become a professional portrait photographer?
This is a tricky one, because being a professional photographer is a hard way to earn a living. There is just so much competition out there. Don't get me wrong it's lovely being my own boss and taking photos for a living. But like any one running a business it's 80% running the business and 20% photographing. I have to say though, that if you enjoy your photography, you'll have much more fun if you're not a professional and shooting what you want and when you want.
Thank you, Adam, for taking part in this interview.

How to indicate to which parent or guardian the RL-24 should be issued?
In the child's client account, expand the Contacts section. Add the parent(s) to receive the statement. You will be given the opportunity to indicate whether the parent must receive 100% or 50% of the statement. If there is no respondent, the statement will be made on behalf of the Account owner.
Some activities are not on the list of eligible activities in Step 1. Why?
Make sure all desired activities are listed as eligible. Please refer to the following documentation: How to configure the settings of the organization and activities to produce RL-24
Some customers have an eligible partial amount, following a cancellation. Can I still produce their statement?
Certainly ! You can manage all exceptions in Step 3 of the process. For more information on this matter: Generate RL-24 for partial unsubscriptions- Step 3
The number of days or the number of weeks do not match, why?
When editing the activity, it is important to enter a start day with the start time and an end day with the end time, so that the days or weeks are calculated accordingly by Amilia. Also check if you checked the stated right declared time.
A message tells me that the social insurance number is missing, what should I do?
Under the new government legislation, no RL-24 can be issued if the social insurance number is not present. If the client refuses to enter his or her SIN on the platform, you can create a manual receipt or send proof of registration and payment to the client for include in his or her tax return.
I received a payment after December 31 of the applicable tax year, can I still generate all of the RL-24 for the tax year in which the activity took place?
Yes, what matters is not when the payment is made, but when the Activity took place. As long as the schedule is in the tax year, payments can be entered later.
If I sent statements electronically and I make changes later, what should I do to resend the modified statements?
Once all steps are completed and your statements forwarded to Revenu Quebec, you can manually edit reports. You will have to send them back to Revenu Quebec.
To do this, refer to the section EDIT A RL-24 here: Once you Generated your RL-24
The RL-24s are not visible in my client's accounts. Why?
Once the statements are validated by Revenue Quebec, you must absolutely click on the tab so that they are present in your clients accounts, under the tab DOCUMENTS.
Some clients did not received their RL-24 by email. What can I do?
They may have received their statement in their SPAM box. It may also be that the sending has been completely blocked, since it is an automated one. To this end, the customers must have accepted sending from our platform. We can also conduct audits on our side. Note that the client will still have access to his RL-24s in his Amilia account, under the DOCUMENTS tab. You will also be able to download it in its account in administrator mode, under the DOCUMENTS tab, and send it by email out of the platform.

A good friend of mine is always on the lookout for fun things for me to feature on the blog, so when she sent me the link to these Save the Dates, I knew I had to feature them. They are different than your traditional Save the Date, and have so much personality (especially from the bride and groom).
I love the idea that it is a tri-fold, and features several photos of the couple, which were taken by the talented James Christianson. The bride, Laura Dombrowski, is a photographer in the Denver/Boulder, CO, area, but is from Cape Girardeau, MO (giving her Midwest ties!).
At any rate, here are the Save the Dates from several different angles. I was also able to find out that she had them printed on recycled paper (a girl after my own heart), which I just love. She used color, which more brides should do. And, she opted to include photos of her and her fiance, which guests really love – they can use it as keepsake.

Reenact the battles of the ancient world's masters of the art of war….the Egyptians! One of the most long-lasting kingdoms on the face of the earth, discover what made their armies so great and their warriors so skilled!
The Egypt Book contains detailed, step-by-step instructions, patterns, and full color pictures to create one-of-a-kind duct tape weapons, helmets, armor and costumes.
Bring Ancient History to LIFE! All the weapons and armor are based on the Ancient Egyptian time period. Real Egyptian warriors of ancient history would have used these weapons (of course, not made of duct tape!)
Act out ancient history with the khopesh, shield and nemes (Egyptian headgear) and more!
The Egypt Book includes historical details about each weapons in the book. For Example:
Nile Spear – The spear is one of the oldest weapons ever. The Egyptians would have used them extensively in their armies. It was the weapon of the rank and file, common soldier. It had a sharp bronze head with a long wooden shaft. It was most effective with an Egyptian shield.
Cresent Axe – Another type of Bronze Age axe, this axe was used by the Egyptians as well as the Phoenicians and Carthaginians. Its long, curved blade was a very effective cutting instrument and was used fairly often by Egyptian warriors. It is also depicted on early Egyptian art work.
The Egypt Book is an awesome resource for any study of the Egyptian era!

China usually steals the headlines when it comes to big ticket investments in Africa with its multibillion dollar deals swapping resources for infrastructure, but India - the world's other emergeing superpower - is also trawling the continent for the raw materials it needs to fuel its economy, as a visit this week by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh makes clear.
Singh is in Addis Ababa for the start of the second India-Africa summit and a six-day visit to Ethiopia and Tanzania hoping to offer development aid and credit in exchange for more trade and political support.
India is trailing China: India's trade with Africa is worth around $40 billion a year, China's is worth roughly three times that.
India is keen to export its pharmaceuticals, technology and industrial hardware and to import African copper, cobalt, diamonds, gold and oil. But China's financial muscle means it can simply outbid India when the two go head-to-head.
Both Asian powers – like the US and others – are eager for a share of African oil to secure and diversify their energy supplies. A 2009 report by the London-based think tank Chatham House on Asian involvement in the Nigerian and Angolan oil industries points out that, "China's deeper pockets have certainly put a break on India's ambitions."
In other ways India is taking tips from China's Africa playbook. Mao Zedong supported Africa's socialist liberation movements in the 1960s and in return African states voted China onto the United Nations Security Council in 1971.
India is eager for a similar quid pro quo when it comes to its rivalry with Pakistan and its own bid for a place on the Security Council.

Welcome to the original 'Ranch House.' Come relax in the peaceful setting of a historic cattle ranch that rests along the Burnt River, approximately one quarter mile west of the Snake River. This unique property has been a family treasure since the 1940s and holds a dear place in our hearts. We would like to share our property and hope others enjoy it as much as we do. Whether you are seeking a relaxing vacation to get away from the city and enjoy the stars or you are a fisherman or water enthusiast, this is the place for you.

Our ranch is also a perfect spot to just get away from it all. Creative artists, such as painters and writers would appreciate the solitude, serenity, and peacefulness of our ranch estate.
My family has owned the Ranch property since the 1940s. From that time up until just a few years ago it is was a working cattle ranch. As a family we hope to continue the tradition of having family gathering and reunions at the property. During the times we are not using the property, as a family, we have decided to share it with others so they can experience not only a piece of our family's history, but get a sense of the true rural eastern Oregon life-ways.
Chelsa purchased this house in 1940
You can unplug, 'get off the grid', and experience a peacefulness that you might have forgotten that exists in this bustling and techy world that we now live in. You might have forgotten how many stars are in the sky. You might not know that the coyotes howl at 4 am or the birds wake you up every morning at 7 am. Did you know that the deer graze along the fields and mountain sides at dusk? See photos if you don't believe me.
Living in the city for so long, you might want to get back to a more peaceful time and that is why I say, take a step back in time and experience what life was like before our world got so loud and busy.
We enjoyed the barber ranch so much! Beautiful home stocked for guests with games, plenty of blankets and toys. Perfect for adults and kids! If you're looking for a quiet getaway this is the place! We will be back again!
The ranch house was a great place to stay near Hell's canyon and the Wallowa's. It needs some updating, but it was clean and spacious. The neighbor is located on the property, but was very nice and respected our privacy. If your looking to stay close to the snake river as a big group or a small family, such as ours, the ranch house is a great option!
We have had the opportunity to stay at Snake River Vacation house on several occasions over the past year. Peaceful setting. The house is spacious and well appointed working well for groups and the large deck is great for barbecues or just enjoying the day.
We had a wonderful stay at the Old Ranch House In Huntington, OR. Not only was it centrally located for all of our group, it provided a good mix of amenities for the composition of our group with plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms, a large enough kitchen for our ambitious meal plans and a large space downstairs for some spirited table tennis matches. Information provided on the VRBO site and by the owner nicely matched what was available at the Ranch House. Kitchen implements were as promised and we took along the special implements we needed for our meals. Bedrooms, baths, living room, etc. were all as described and the house was well kept. The property is in a very pleasant valley setting with the Burnt River nearby, providing ample opportunities for walks in addition to access the to Snake River valley and its tributaries where we enjoyed three days of upland game bird hunting. The rustic setting combined with the general cleanliness of the property was a good match for our group and the three day bird hunt, the large front porch giving us ample room to remove boots and hunting clothes. We will likely return to this property in the future and we certainly recommend the property for anyone who wants to spend some quality time in the vicinity of Hells Canyon National Recreational Area or the general Snake River.
I had a business trip in the area and decided to stay outside of the city and glad I did. The house was *very spacious and immaculately kept ranch house. The caretakers are very nice if you happen to meet them and booking was quick & easy. This place is perfect for a couple or a family looking to find a fun place in nature. The near by town is quaint and the nearby restaurant has a tasty menu. We plan on vacationing here again sometime to explore more of the area!
Wow! Our family had a wonderful and very exciting vacation! Such a breath taking adventure with a rural setting and so close to the boat ramp! So loved the peaceful deck, sipping our coffee! Family time is a must and this was the perfect spot! Thanks bunches Jessica! We will be back next year!
The Ranch House is conveniently located 5 miles east of Interstate 84, approximately 70 miles west of Boise, Idaho and 45 miles east of Baker City, Oregon. The ranch property rests along the Burnt River near the confluence of the Snake River. Two boat launches are a few miles away. In addition, Anthony Lakes Ski Resort is about 70 miles away. For fishemans. the annual Catfish Derby happens every Memorial Day weekend. And if you are into hunting and pulled a tag in the Lookout Mountain region, this is a great place to stay.

Two Door Cinema Club forced to pull out of festival headline spot after guitarist Alex collapses on way to gig
The lead singer of Northern Irish indie band Two Door Cinema Club has collapsed at a US airport as he was about to head to the UK to headline a festival.
Alex Trimble collapsed at Seattle Airport just before boarding a flight and has been hospitalised with a chronic stomach complaint, the band said in a statement.
The band, from Bangor and Donaghadee, were due to top the bill alongside acts such as the Editors, Billy Bragg and Kelis.
Pop star Lily Allen will instead headline tomorrow's opening night of the Latitude Festival in Suffolk after the band announced it had pulled out of the event.
The outspoken star, whose latest album is entitled Sheezus, sent her best wishes to the performer but said she was looking forward to taking to the stage at Henham Park.
She said: "So sorry to hear about Alex from Two Door Cinema Club. However, I am more than happy to step in.
"I've never been to Latitude but I hear it's fabulous and I can't wait to get my heels on for some serious dancing action on Friday evening. So, so excited."
Two Door Cinema Club yesterday issued a statement, saying: "It is with a heavy heart that we are going to need to cancel our upcoming shows at Latitude and Bournemouth Academy.
"We are devastated to have to cancel shows that we were so looking forward to. We can only apologise and hope for your understanding at this time."
Melvin Benn, managing director of Festival Republic which runs the event, said he was sad that Two Door Cinema Club had been forced to cancel their performance "under advice of doctors".
He added: "We wish Alex all the best and a speedy recovery.
"We are honoured that Lily Allen is able to step in at the last minute and would like to thank her for filling the headline slot.
"After her show-stopping performance at Glastonbury Lily was a natural choice, the Latitude audience are in for something really spectacular.
Co Down band Two Door Cinema Club are festival veterans – having played Reading and Leeds, iTunes, Canada's Edgefest and others, but Latitude would have been their first time at the top of a major bill.
In 2012 it was rumoured that Barack Obama had booked out nearly every seat for a concert by the band in Washington DC. But Alex Trimble later dismissed it as "complete lies".
They also performed at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics.

Premier jeu sur Sega Megadrive, Altered Beast a sa place parmi les classiques devenus cultes au fil du temps. Le jeu est bien ficelé, il y a une logique et l'intrigue avance à chaque tableau. On regrette la difficulté, gros point faible du jeu, mais qui ne nous empêche pas de (re)passer un bon moment devant notre console, seul ou à deux, entre nostalgiques du genre et de l'époque.
VicioJuegos.com (Feb 19, 2007)
Pese a todo, los usuarios que disfrutaran de la recreativa podrán rejugarla de forma sencilla, y por un precio asequible, 800 puntos Wii. Tanto a este título, como a Ristar, Sonic the Hedgehog, Golden Axe, Bonanza Bros., o Comix Zone, les ha hecho mucho daño la salida de Sega Mega Drive Collection para PlayStation 2 y PlayStation Portable, ciertamente inoportuna en materia de fechas, y especialmente precios, ya que el recopilatorio incluye veintisiete juegos a un precio por unidad muy inferior.
Nintendo Insanity (Dec, 2007)
This is actually a fun system, but of course it's not the most complex thing in the world. With only five stages in the adventure, you'll more than likely complete it between 20 or 30 minutes. You can, however, play with another person, who takes control of a second character who is 'brought back to life'. The catch is, you have to share Spirits Orbs as well as the lives that keep you playing the game. 800 Wii Points ($8.00) may be asking too much for this title, but hey, you'd have it pretty much forever then. Would I recommend downloading this title? Yes, for two reasons. One, if you're a nostalgic classic gamer and loved the Sega Genesis. Two, you want a solid sidescrolling fighter and are collecting the VC titles. The length and blatant simplicity of the game, though, may turn you away. It's ultimately your choice.
GameSpot (Nov 19, 2006)
This is a pure, side-scrolling action game, the likes of which symbolized video arcades for years. Altered Beast distinguished itself with its fairly original premise and its unique art direction--it even had a surprise twist ending. Some of the bosses and animal forms are quite memorable to this day, and the original arcade version featured some excellent music and audio for the time. It's too bad that the speech clips got butchered in translation to the Genesis, and the music suffered in translation as well. But unless you have the arcade version as a frame of reference, you wouldn't know the difference. At any rate, 800 Wii points ($8) seems rather steep for a short, simple action game that came free with the $200 Sega Genesis more than 15 years ago.
IGN (Jan 16, 2007)
It was great for free, as a packed-in Genesis cartridge back in 1989. It's not so great, or even good, for 800 Points, as a digitally downloadable Virtual Console title on the Wii today. Altered Beast should only be considered for download by Sega gamers of yesteryear, nostalgic to re-experience this arcade port in all its voice-distorting glory. Other players simply looking for fresh and inventive games from the Genesis back catalog would be better served spending their Wii Points on pretty much any other Sega title on offer. Pack-ins may be making a comeback, but Altered Beast is one old bundled bonus that you wouldn't have missed much if it had been left out of the box.
Eurogamer.net (UK) (Jan 23, 2007)
Playing it now inspires the kind of retro horror that we dread, and the amount of fun you can have with it quickly runs dry. One for hardcore retro fetishists only.
The Virtual Console Archive (2007)
Is it worth 800 points? Probably not. You could probably pick up a Megadrive and a copy of the game for less. But if you were a fan of the game all those years ago, you could do a lot worse than give this a spin.
Nintendo Life (Jun 26, 2009)
(VC Arcade version)
There's no two ways about it: Altered Beast is a terrible game. Even here, in a perfect conversion of the arcade original, it's so horrendously stodgy and repetitive that it makes you wonder quite why anyone holds it in the slightest bit of regard.

Nintendo Life (Nov 20, 2006)
Although the gameplay is pretty basic, it's fun while it lasts - which isn't very long, to be perfectly honest. Even a gamer of average skill should be able to complete this in the space of a day or two. The levels, depending on how quickly you morph you character, aren't really all that long and there are only five levels total. Once you play through it, there really isn't much more incentive to go back and play it again.
Eurogamer.net (UK) (Jul 26, 2009)
Dear Santa, for Christmas I would like you to make Altered Beast go away forever. Thanks. Sluggish, simplistic and with all the pacing of a snail race, Altered Beast is the arcade "classic" that simply refuses to lay down and die like a good dinosaur. It's recent appearance on Xbox Live Arcade was a fairly grim effort, but at least that had online leaderboards, Achievements, rejigged graphics (ugly as they are) and a price-tag around half the cost of this lazy, greedy shovel job.

[Ten portraits of horses]
Rotterdam, ca. 1800. Ten original engravings (ca. 15.0 x 12.0 cm), all but one mounted on contemporary paper (ca. 27.0 x 21.5 cm).l This is a collection of ten drawings made by the Dutch artist Gerrit Malleyn (1753-1816) - who specialized in drawing horses - and engraved by the Dutch artist, Johannes Adriaanz Bemme (1775-1841). Bemme was renowned for his horse engravings and engraved nearly all the horses in J. F. Teupken's "Beschrijving hoedanig de Koninklijke Nederlandsche troepen en alle in militaire betrekking staande personen gekleed, geëquipeerd en gewapend zijn" ("Description of the Royal Dutch troops and all military related people and their clothes, equipment and arms" see Landwehr, 455). The illustrations are quite lively and show horses in different moods. Impressions strong, paper quality good. A nice collection. Complete suites, with 12 engravings, are very rare but single engravings are quite uncommon too.

RALEIGH, N.C. -- Sophomore Shayla Fields was on the line, and the hopes of NC State were there with her. The pressure was stomach-churning intense.
And you could tell she felt it. Fields missed two free throws with 19.8 seconds left in regulation Tuesday night. Unless you were bleeding Baylor green and gold, your heart had to lurch a little bit.
How would this young player ever get over it if Baylor scored and won this second-round NCAA Tournament game by two? You wondered if she'd spend her life thinking, "I missed the free throws that ended Coach Yow's career."
Of course, no one wants to be thinking anything like that. No one wants to believe that when this tournament ends for NC State, Kay Yow's coaching career will end. Because maybe there will be a miracle.
But frankly, these last two months already have been a miracle -- an unbelievable, unforgettable, amazing gift. Most people as sick as Yow are lying in hospital beds. Somehow, she's still putting on her red jacket and helping her Wolfpack win games.
And as it turned out, Fields didn't have to face a terrible memory. Baylor didn't score, and the game that lived up to predictions as one of the best of this entire tournament went into overtime.
There, Fields found hoops redemption. She hit a 3-pointer -- her only one of the game -- with 49 seconds left. It gave the Wolfpack a six-point edge, and NC State held on for a 78-72 victory that could have been officially sponsored by Kleenex, there were so many tears afterward.
Joyful ones, of course, from the Wolfpack, who now face UConn in the Sweet 16 in Fresno. Sad ones for Baylor, which was trying to make its fourth consecutive trip to the Sweet 16.
For the final five minutes of regulation and the entire overtime, there was more drama than any of us writers here could adequately put into words. It was one very special basketball game.
"It's a shame somebody had to lose," Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. "I've got a locker room full of young people who are as dejected as I've ever seen them. And that's bad, because they lost. But it's good because the majority of them will have other opportunities in the future.
"They were up against a lot of intangibles, guys, and we all know that. They were up against seniors, against Coach Yow's situation. For them to fight and claw and compete -- it hurts. For those players that are returning, I hope they don't forget how this feels. For the two seniors we lose, I hug their necks and thank them for what they meant to our program."
One of those seniors was Bernice Mosby, who played just one year for Baylor after transferring from Florida but made quite an impact. Mosby had found out on Monday that her family's home back in Florida had burned down on Sunday. No one was injured, but you can imagine the emotions Mosby has been feeling.
She still came out and scored a game-high 26 points and had six rebounds against NC State.
"Bernice laid it out on the line tonight; she was special on the floor," Mulkey said. "She has had a rough day or two with losing everything back home. For a young lady to take that out of her mind for two hours and perform like she did -- it hurts right now for her. She does have a quite a future ahead of her in pro basketball, though."
Mosby suffered leg cramps at the end of the game and had to be helped off the court. The rest of the Baylor players, though, hugged Yow as they went through the postgame handshake line.
"It's a respect thing more than anything," Mulkey said. "It's not that they know her on a personal level, it's that they know what she's meant to this game that they all love."
Nobody knows that more than this group of Wolfpack players, who have won 12 of 14 games since Yow returned in January from her leave to treat -- as best as possible -- her stage-4 cancer.
Khadijah Whittington had to leave the game for a while with an upset stomach that she acknowledged might have been brought on by nerves as much as anything. Ashley Key's calf muscle cramped up badly during the overtime, and she had to be helped back to the locker room.
Both players, though, recovered from their respective ailments and were on the floor in the final minutes.
"This is it," Whittington said, "so I knew I had to suck it up. I went to the training room and I had to get cooled off, and I returned. I felt sick, but it went away."
Key said, "I got juiced down with electrolytes and I just wanted to come back out and help however I could. I knew that somewhere I would probably be needed. They were able to fix me up, and I was able to come back out."
As for Fields' huge 3-pointer, it was a play called for her. Whittington set a screen that got her open, and Marquetta Dickens got her the ball.
"It was nothing but net," Fields said afterward, smiling.
Her free throws near the end of regulation, however, had been nothing but rim.
"I felt like I let my team down at the end of the second half," Fields said. "I just wanted to come out with confidence and stay in the game, keep my head in the game. My coaches and teammates kept me up. They said that I was going to get another chance, and I did."
Life, of course, doesn't always provide second chances. Yow is in her third battle with cancer, and she knows how precious every extra second is. Whittington, who scored a career-high 23 points and had 11 rebounds Tuesday, understands that lesson very well -- and not just because of her experience with Yow.
Whittington's father, Monsoor Mohammed, has ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. There is no cure yet. ALS patients lose all muscle control -- inevitably, horribly, fatally.
Her father is still living back home in Virginia, but he can't move and he has lost virtually all of his capacity to communicate. Whittington said he is still able to watch her games.
"I've been dealing with my father being sick for the three years that I've been here," said Whittington, a junior from Roanoke, Va. "I know it's in the Lord's hands. Seeing how Coach Yow handled her father's passing and her sickness helps me. I know whatever may happen, my father will be OK.
"He's still hanging in there. I deal with it. I pray a lot. I have a lot of people supporting me. Coach Yow knows when I'm feeling bad, and she lets me go home and see my father. I have those times when I feel like I just can't take it anymore, but I get through it."
And now, for her dad, for Coach Yow, for her teammates, for the Wolfpack Nation and for herself, too, Whittington leads NC State into the Sweet 16.
"I've never been to Fresno," she said. "I'm so excited about going."
So is her coach.
"If you would have seen Coach Yow after the game -- she looked like a little kid in a candy store," Key said. "Just being able to see that huge smile on her face and knowing it's because of the way we played and how hard we played -- the hustle and the heart and everything she talks about that we put into that game. It's huge for us to go to (California) and keep this winning streak going."

I'm new to Ubuntu, spent all day trying to get this working, now I think I could use some help, please.
I have a Dell Latitude D600, dual-booting XP and Xubuntu 12.04. I discovered it's got a Broadcom BCM4309 wireless card [14e4:4324] (rev03).
I started tying to use Settings > Additional Drivers, but this crashed my machine with a Kernel BUG at include/net/cfg802.11.h:2209! invalid opcode:0000 [#1]smp
Next I went to the documentation and found instructions to install first the b43 driver and then separately the b43 legacy driver (my card was listed for both). I configured the network settings. But no joy.
Next I found documentation with instructions for a ndiswrapper install. I blacklisted the previous drivers, then downloaded a new one from Dell, installed and loaded using ndisgtk. Still no joy.
Then I found the sticky at the top of this forum, uninstalled what I had inc. a purge of the bcmwl-kernel-source, reverted the blacklisting and installed linux-firmware-nonfree. Still no joy.
I've eliminated the issue some users of this laptop had with trouble discovering the Fn F2 key turns the wifi on and off.
I hope I'm not being stupid.
thanks for any help.

This epic event not only ushered in the age of modern warfare but also gave rise to a new economic, political and cultural world order. The program will examine both America's participation in the war and its continuing impact on the lives of all Americans.

A More Perfect Union
Judd Bankert as Woodrow Wilson
Before he entered politics, President Wilson had spent twenty-five years in higher education, first as a college professor of history and jurisprudence and later as the President of Princeton University. During this time one of Wilson's most significant contributions to the new discipline of political science was his Darwinian model of the evolutionary influences exerted by external forces, the political "environment," on governmental institutions. Wilson saw the Declaration of Independence as the formative document of the American political system and its preeminent principle as the right of the people to alter or abolish their government when it did not serve them. Wilson believed the most significant right of a free people was "to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." As a leader of the progressive movement he felt that as the world changed so must the institutions that served its people.
Join Professor Wilson as he explains his theories on political evolution as he consolidated them in 1908 in his final academic thesis, "Constitutional Government of the United States." Hear him explain the need for a "living" Constitution, and share his vision of the unique role the President.

The Political Reality of late 19th Century Europe
J. Holmes Armstead
The Great War marks a beginning of the modern era politically or perhaps more correctly the post- modern international era, and in some ways a settlement of the old order. That old order, or as it is more usually termed in late 19th Century Europe, the Imperial World of the late 19th Century, was a culmination of nation-state organization that developed after the
Thirty Year's War and brought some settlement to political, religious and territorial squabbles by allowing regionally dominant ethnicities to establish dynastic hegemony across Europe.
After the convulsions of the Napoleonic Wars, the political situation was solidified by the Treaty of Vienna and the attempt was made to preserve the existing order with a balance of power among the Great Powers over the next Century. Some have mistakenly termed the next century the Peace of Vienna but it was far from that. As states realigned, alliances were formed, and overseas colonial territories added, all of which marked changes in the economic and political balance of Europe, and made for raw new tensions as some states with a "place in the Sun" benefited masterfully in the industrialization process by using relatively cheap natural resources from colonial territories to fuel their respective economies vis-a-vis competitors sans colonial aggrandizement. Those tensions built and festered and the cataclysm of the Great War ensued and set the stage for a tragic aftermath in the 20th Century.

Schools as Prisons and Prisons as Schools
Sally Ann Drucker as Emma Goldman
Emma Goldman felt that schools were used to break the will of the child, promote uniformity, and inhibit initiative and originality. Today, does "teaching to the test" do this? When Goldman wrote and lectured, people also debated the role of education in creating informed voters, assimilating immigrants, and preparing people for the work force. Is the debate about these issues the same today? From her jail experiences, Goldman learned that most criminals were illiterate. She saw prison reform and education as inevitably linked. Is it true now? In this workshop, we'll discuss Goldman's ideals on education and how realistic they might or might not be today.
2:15 to 3:30 pm
Echoes of the Great War in Remarque's Fiction
George Frein
Erich Maria Remarque fought in the German army during World War I and experienced trench warfare firsthand. After living for ten years with frightful memories from that war, he wrote All Quiet of the Western Front. It is arguably the most famous war novel of all time.
Many people read All Quiet on the Western Front in high school or college. But very few people know that Remarque went on to write ten more novels, all of which echo with ideas and themes from his first book.
This illustrated program will examine the powerful echoes of World War I that can be found in Remarque's subsequent novels. These same echoes can still be heard in military and political events in our world today. Hearing these echoes in Remarque's novels will make it easier for us to hear the noise that makes our times anything but quiet.

Speaking Truth to Power
Brian "Fox" Ellis
Fox will take us on a tour of the wonderful world of Quaker folktales and historical stories that focus on a non-violent response to potentially violent situations. From the Underground Railroad to the Quakers' Witness for Peace, from Conscientious Objectors to more recent work in conflict resolution and anti-bullying campaigns, there have always been Quakers who dared to confront violence with the truth of their lives. The audience will visit pioneer homes in the Colonial wilderness and the fairy tale forest of the imagination. We will sing the songs of peace and join the march towards liberty. Fox will celebrate the freedoms that are the foundation of Quaker history through stories and songs. Blending non-fiction with folklore, poetry and music this program draws from the rich Quaker literary tradition and personal journals of abolitionists and activists. For All Ages!
10:00 am to 4:00 pm
High Plains Chautauqua is proud to present our Young Chautauqua scholars. These students have spent months reading, researching, and presenting their characters to different audiences. Young Chautauqua is a Colorado Humanities program that has been developed and supported by Greeley-Evans School District 6. Since the program began 17 years ago, approximately 13, 447 local students have participated, either as audience members or by researching and presenting a character.
This school year, 1709 students participated in 21 school programs. Teachers at each participating school worked with Young Chautauqua scholars. In addition, a Colorado Humanities-trained coach and local coaches worked with students and teachers to teach the Young Chautauqua model of learning history and to refine presentation skills of those who chose to present a character. Today's portrayals are a sampling of the talented students who researched and developed a wide and interesting array of historic characters.

Watch Your Step! Vintage Dance Vignettes
Vernon (1887-1918) and Irene Castle (1893-1969) came to fame in Parisian nightclubs, starred in Broadway revues, and went on to popularize "modern" dancing at their Castle House dance studio and supper club. They refined African-American ragtime and "animal" dances to make them acceptable in white society. The duo wowed audiences with their innovation and refinement until Vernon's tragic death in a military training center mid-air collision. After piloting 300 World War One combat missions with the Royal Flying Corps, Vernon had returned to the U.S. in 1917 to train American aviators.
Watch Your Step! will present the dances the Castles loved, including the eponymous Castle Walk, the half and half--an ingenious dance in 5/4 time, the tango from Argentina, and the Brazilian maxixe.

Winston Churchill as First Lord of the Admiralty and as Minister of Munitions
Kevin Radaker
In 1911, Winston Churchill was appointed First Lord of the Admiralty, a post he retained into the First World War. During those years, he gave impetus to several reforms, including development of naval aviation, the tank, and the switch from coal to oil in almost all of the ships for the Royal Navy. In short, Churchill's innovations and strengthening of the navy prepared Britain well for the war, but he was forced to resign as First Lord of the Admiralty in May 1915 because of his role in the disastrous Dardanelles/Gallipoli campaign. Later in the war, in July 1917, Churchill was appointed Minister of Munitions. Serving in that capacity, he repeated his advocacy of air power and the tank. This presentation shall examine the technical innovations that he favored and the political infighting that led to his dismissal as First Lord of the Admiralty.
10:45 to 11:45 am
Pershing and Petraeus
Ron Edgerton
Generals Jack Pershing and David Petraeus seem, at first look, to share little in common. Pershing modeled strict discipline, unbending professionalism, an iron will, and a ramrod-straight bearing tailor made (as one critic has said) for monuments. Petraeus as a military man had more personal magnetism, and he inspired not just admiration and emulation but deep personal loyalty. He was also more genuinely a man of intellect, especially in problem solving a new American military strategy known as counterinsurgency warfare or COIN.
Despite their personality differences, these two men actually shared much in common. Both were highly competitive, ambitious, and good at self-promotion, and they held themselves to very high standards. Likewise, both stressed rigorous training, professionalism, and absolute commitment to winning. Had they lived in the same era, they would have agreed on the urgent need for change in American military culture, for both saw themselves as reformers pitted against tradition-bound old army senior officers.
Pershing and Petraeus would also have agreed on the crucial importance of counterinsurgency warfare as a strategy for successfully carrying out the American military's mission in "small wars." Petraeus co-wrote the new manual on counterinsurgency warfare in 2006. Over a century before that date, Pershing put into practice many of the main tenets of COIN. He did this as a captain leading American troops in fighting and then governing Moros (Moslems) in the Philippines. The similarities between Petraeus' COIN in Afghanistan and Pershing's Progressive counterinsurgency in the southern Philippines are remarkable.
This presentation will compare and contrast modern COIN operational priorities with Pershing's counterinsurgency practices a century before. It will suggest a century-long line of thinking and strategizing in the American military that hitherto has not been noted or discussed.
1:00 to 2:00 pm
J. Holmes Armstead
The Gallipoli campaign marks an early use of joint Commonwealth forces under Lt. General Sir Ian Hamilton designed to seize the Bosporus, the Dardanelles and the Gallipoli Peninsula and take the Ottoman Empire out of the war, thereby reducing the press of German military forces on the western front. The initial idea was promulgated by
Minister for War, Field Marshall Horatio Lord Kitchener. However, with the failure of the operation, blame came to rest on First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill, who was forced to resign as a consequence. The execution was a military disaster of the first magnitude. Vice Admiral, Sir John De Roebuck led the naval flotilla that supported the ill-fated operation which, though initially successful, was foiled by well-placed sea mines that sank three battleships. Hamilton and De Roebuck established their respective commands on different ships and did not operate effectively together nor meld their respective staffs. The separate headquarters within the fleet, in an age before communications technology afforded effective command and control for such a complex amphibious operations, spelled disaster, given the lack of coordination and unity of command. An effective defense was mounted against the invasion by the commanding general of the Turkish Army 19th Division, Major General Mustapha Kemal.

Eugenics in the U.S. – Inspiration for Nazis?
Sally Ann Drucker
Margaret Sanger receives credit as a founder of the US birth control movement. She also believed in eugenics, a movement which promoted birth control to prevent reproduction by those with "inferior" genes, including immigrants, the poor, and non-whites. Emma Goldman, another founder of the birth control movement, saw it as every woman's right. With differing motives for advocating birth control, both women were often arrested. In this workshop, we'll examine the relationships between US birth control and eugenics movements and between US and Nazi eugenics movements. Did the US eugenics movement perhaps inspire the infamous Nazi T4 program?

Winston Churchill's Role in the Formation of the Modern Middle East
Kevin Radaker
In March of 1921, Winston Churchill, the newly appointed Colonial Secretary of England, called all the British military leaders and civil administrators in the Middle East to a conference in Cairo to examine and discuss several problems in the region. The decisions formulated during that conference and other actions carried out by Churchill during his time as Colonial Secretary served British interests rather than those of the populations concerned. For example, Churchill's approval of the creation of Iraq has been criticized as having created an artificial state that inevitably would break down because of deep-seated animosities among tribes and factions that were ignored by those in attendance at the conference. Arguably, such decisions have contributed to the unrest that exists in the Middle East today.

Home from the War
Keith Henley
In spite of the many accomplishments that were made during the early 20th Century within the Negro community, the Negro was still denied equality in the military. All he wanted was to prove his loyalty and render his service to the aid of his country in the time of duress. But in World War I, he was not permitted to fight side-by-side with white American soldiers.
Many Afro-American Troops were consigned to service details during the Great War. They worked on the railroads and ports of France, but they saw little fighting. The great exception to that rule was the 369th Regiment, initially recruited as the 15th New York Infantry. Assigned to fight with the French, compelled to wear French uniforms and bear French arms, they became the most decorated American regiment in the war, known far and wide as the Harlem Rattlers or Harlem Hellfighters.
Although the Negro proved himself to be valiant during the war, when he returned to the U.S. there was no such respect given to the heroes of the 369th Infantry. They were denied military honors, faced unemployment, or in some cases lynched – some homecoming!

Edith Wilson, Our First Woman President
Judd Bankert
On December 18, 1915, just a little over a year after his first wife died, President Wilson married Edith Bolling Galt Wilson, a widow sixteen years his junior. Less than four years later the President would suffer a debilitating stroke and his second wife would become what some have referred as the "first woman President."
For months after his October 2, 1919 paralytic stroke no one, not even Wilson's closest advisors, would be allowed to see him without Edith's approval, and then only in her presence. Even Cabinet members were relegated to communicating with the President "through" the First Lady. Not allowed to see the President, visitors instead presented their petitions to Edith, who would later report what the President wanted them to do. "I studied every paper sent from the different Secretaries or Senators," she wrote later of her role, "and tried to digest and present in tabloid form the things that, despite my vigilance, had to go to the President. I, myself, never made a single decision regarding the disposition of public affairs." Who was Edith Bolling Galt and what had prepared her to play this role? Was she, as she claimed, only a courier relaying communications between parties? What motivated her to assume this role of presidential gate-keeper, and did she use this opportunity to settle old scores? Based on our current knowledge of how best to help victims recover from similar strokes, was this isolation the best clinical treatment for the President? How was she able to keep Wilson's personal physician and closest advisors from reporting the President's true condition to others in the administration and to the public? Finally, what impact did Wilson's continuation in office under these circumstances have on both national and international affairs?

Hoover and the World Disarmament Conference
Brian "Fox" Ellis as Herbert Hoover
Hear excerpts of Hoover's speech to this prestigious gathering of world leaders as they vote on this world changing effort to limit their own military development after WWI. Based on his success with the 1930 London Naval Conference, Hoover negotiated with the superpowers of the world to reduce weaponry and eliminate chemical weapons at the 1932 World Disarmament Conference in Geneva. Hoover will share the story of what led up to the conference as well as some of its long term successes and failures.
"We should lessen the danger of war by increasing defensive powers and decreasing offensive powers of nations. We would thus open new vistas of economic expansion for the world." Herbert Hoover
Imagine sitting in the room in Geneva with world leaders from 33 nations including the Soviet Union, France, Germany, England and Japan. Hear excerpts of Hoover's speech to this prestigious gathering as they vote on this world changing effort to limit their own military development after WWI. Hoover argues eloquently for a reduction in arms that will stimulate the economy and build true security through peace. Based on his success with the 1930 London Naval Conference, Hoover negotiated with the superpowers of the world to reduce weaponry and eliminate chemical weapons at the 1932 World Disarmament Conference. Hoover will share the story of what led up to the conference as well as some of its long term successes and failures.
Beginning as Hoover, Brian "Fox" Ellis will share a large portion of the speech, then step out of character to discern the successes and failures of disarmament, knowing that as nations abandoned the agreement in 1937, World War II began to heat up. And at the very end, Fox will lead a discussion on its repercussions for our current international agreements.

Edith Wharton's Childhood: Life in Victorian Times
Amelia Wagner
Close your eyes and imagine you're a child living 150 years ago. Many things are different. Your house is lit by gas instead of electricity, you get from place to place by carriage instead of car, and you have probably never seen a telephone. Yet many things are the same. This is the world that Edith Wharton grew up in, and it's a world that greatly influenced her future writing.
This class will explore the many things that children did differently in the Victorian times, but it will also explore the many ways that Victorian children are just like us! We'll learn first hand what Victorian children ate, what they wore, what they learned about, and what games they played. We will also hear stories from Edith Wharton's own childhood. Come join us for a "bang up to the elephant" time!
Victorian dress is encouraged, but not required.

Greeley Central High School Jazz I
Racial conditions in America and abroad during World War I gave rise to the jazz age of the Roaring Twenties. Poverty and racism in the South resulted in the Great Migration of African Americans, bringing New Orleans jazz to the North, notably to Chicago and New York.
On New Year's Day in 1918, the 15th New York Regiment, nicknamed the Harlem Hellfighters, landed on the coast of Brittany, France, accompanied by a regimental band led by James Reese Europe. Mr. Europe was a hit abroad, with British, French and Italian bandmasters all wanting to imitate those hot new jazz sounds.

The Cinema Sees Action: Movies and the Great War
David Caldwell
The Great War was the first conflict to unfold in the motion picture era. Cinema changed the way we look at war, but the First World War also changed the direction of the film industry, both in the US and Europe. It set the stage for a century of filmmaking style, combat narratives and reflections on the meaning of patriotism. Actors as diverse as Charlie Chaplin, Kirk Douglas and Brad Pitt have charged from the cinematic trenches. Follow film expert David Caldwell "Over There" and back again with clips and conversation about the Great War and great movies from 1918 to today.
Professor David Caldwell helped establish a program in Film Studies at the University of Northern Colorado and also offers courses in the Department of Modern Languages. In addition to his work with international cinema, Dr. Caldwell considers ways in which American films help tell national and global narratives.
10:45 am to 11:45 pm
The Great Migration and the Harlem Renaissance
(My edited version. Jane):
World War I not only changed the outlook of the world but it gave rise to a voice for the Negro in America. For many years since Reconstruction the Negro had fought trying to find his place in America. Although he had been shot down through racism, he continued to rise above his oppressors through faith, his strength, creativity, bravery, ingenuity, and the will to defeat the evil within as well as without. The Harlem Renaissance reveals such accomplishments by the Negro. We shall discuss those areas of strength through the voices of the day – such voices as, Alain Locke, Langston Hughes, Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith, Marcus Garvey, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Dr. Carter G. Woodson, just to name a few.
The war also had an effect on the economics within the Negro community. This conflict allowed Negroes to reestablish themselves and create new opportunities by leaving various parts of the South and relocating to various large cities in the North, such as New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Detroit. The war also enhanced the racism in America with Jim Crow and Ku Klux Klan. In spite of all this discrimination, the Negro still rose above his oppressors.

Edith Wharton: Feminism and Design
Amelia Wagner
Scholars have argued bitterly over whether or not Edith Wharton can be viewed as a feminist. Wharton herself certainly never claimed to be one. Yet the presence of exceptionally strong female characters in most of her stories, combined with some of Wharton's personal decisions, leaves the question begging to be answered: what was the relationship of Edith Wharton to the burgeoning feminist movement? Was she, as some have argued, a strong, liberated woman, who paved the way for other strong, liberated women by choices and opinions that were ahead of her time? Or was she, as others have said, a constricted and frigid traditionalist, clinging to the mores of the past?
This lecture will try to answer some of these questions. To do so, we will focus on an important, though oft forgotten, portion of Edith's life: interior design. Many scholars have recognized that Wharton's first love was interior design (a profession which she helped to develop), and this love is integral to Wharton's writing. Wharton consistently reveals as much about her characters by where she has them live and their opinions on decor as by what she has them do or say. Thus, we will consider what feminist standards Wharton does or does not meet in her role as interior designer; more importantly, we will examine the clues she leaves us about her ideas of what a woman should be in her description of her characters and their houses. Come prepared to delve into Wharton's works, critics' analysis, and Wharton's personal life with an aim to discover Edith Wharton's opinion on feminism.

A Meeting with Hitler
George Frein
From its beginning, World War II was an echo of World War I.
This illustrated program will tell the story of the day World War II began in Europe.
That day is usually given as September 1, 1939 when German forces invaded Poland, but I suggest that the war began at a meeting on February 12, 1938. The meeting was between German Chancellor Adolf Hitler and the Chancellor of Austria, Kurt von Schuschnigg.
The meeting did not go well for Schuschnigg. Hitler soon invaded Austria and Schuschnigg spent the war in concentration camps. After the war, Schuschnigg came to America and taught at St. Louis University where I took two courses from him and learned his story of World War II. I will tell his story in this program.

High tech let-down as Wexford's Walter was about to deliver advice
World class new technology expert, Walter O'Brien talking from his office in the US via Internet video link was about to tell his audience at the Wexford Business Expo 2015 at the County Council Offices in Carricklawn, how he could help his native county when an Internet glitch cut him off.
Brendan Cahill-Flynn, a young junior cert graduate from Ballybrittas, Bree led a chorus of 'cheated' business leaders and his fellow students when he said across the room that 'the Internet should have been sorted in Ireland 10 years ago'.
His comment echoed County Wexford man Walter's earlier comment in his truncated half-hour trans-Atlantic address that in South Korea more than 10 years ago, the government paid for massive Internet bandwidth for every major school, every major city and area. He said 'now it has a booming economy full of kids who are extremely technical.
'A big part of it is the Internet was free and fast'.
Compere Karl Fitzpatrick for organisers Wexford Chamber and Wexford County Council told Walter via the video link that key stakeholders were listening to him and one of their questions was: 'What can you do for Wexford?' Walter said, 'the only way I can help is..' when the video-link went blank.
Wexford Chamber meanwhile announced the presentation to Walter of an Outstanding Achievement award in the shape of a limited edition pin designed by Martins jewellers commemorating the 1916 Rising. Walter's pin has the number 197- the level of his IQ.
Wexford People
