The Marriage of Figaro
Something's afoot in the palace of the Count!
Mischievous schemes, masquerades and mistaken identities take center stage in Mozart's delightfully wicked masterpiece!
The infamous Figaro, his bride-to-be Susanna and the Countess conspire to expose and embarrass the cunning, skirt-chasing Count. This is comic opera at its best!
DON'T MISS the return of Jamie-Rose (The Magic Flute, 2011) and bass Paolo Pecchioli (The Italian Girl in Algiers, 2011) to Austin as Susanna and Figaro in this riotously funny staging of Mozart's classic.
All performances of this event have passed.
Cast List
Marcellina: Lisa Alexander
Antonio: Brett J. Barnes
Count Almaviva: Jonathan Beyer
Countess Almaviva: Eleni Calenos
Barberina: Amelia Ciskey
Cherubino: Tynan Davis
Don Basilio/Don Curzio: Joseph Evans
Susanna: Jamie-Rose Guarrine
Figaro: Paolo Pecchioli
Dr. Bartolo: Michael Wanko
Stage Director: Chuck Hudson
Setting: The grand estate of Count Almaviva, just outside Seville.
Act I
On the eve of their wedding Figaro, valet to Count Almaviva, and Susanna, his sweetheart and maid to the Countess, assess the accommodations granted to them by their employers. Though Susanna is secure in her love for Figaro, and seemingly immune to the Count's repeated advances, Figaro ponders the situation with trepidation. Not long after Figaro finishes one set of worries, two more set upon him. Marcellina, a woman old enough to be his mother and obsessed enough to warrant a restraining order, enters with Don Bartolo, planning to collapse Figaro's nuptials. Marcellina feels that Figaro must marry her to settle a debt. Susanna returns as Bartolo departs with time enough to quarrel with Marcellina. Quick on Susanna's heels is the page, Cherubino, who is oozing with "amore" and desperately trying to enlist her aid. He is woefully in love with the Countess and wishes to be her private servant. The page barely has a moment to conceal himself as Count Almaviva arrives to allure Susanna. Don Basilio, the music master, interrupts soon after, and the Count then hides. Don Basilio has come to gossip and criticize Cherubino for his bold admiration for the Countess. Hearing this, the Count becomes infuriated, reveals himself, and recounts the page's recent escapades with Barbarina, his gardener's daughter. While denouncing the harmless flirt, the Count discovers him concealed behind a chair. Figaro then returns with a round of peasants praising the Count. This eases his near-exploding temper just enough to keep him from wringing Cherubino's neck. He sends him into his regiment instead, the act closing with a sardonic Figaro congratulating Cherubino on his forthcoming career in the military.
Act II
Countess Almaviva is in solitude as she laments the loss of love in her marriage. Susanna and Figaro come into her quarters to help devise a plan to bring more respectable behavior from their unruly master. With the addition of Cherubino, who pops in to sing a love song, the foursome construct a plan in which the Count will be embarrassed into changing his ways. He will receive an anonymous letter accusing the Countess of infidelity and an enticing invitation from Susanna to meet in the garden concealed by night. When the Count attempts to seduce her, he will find that the woman is really Cherubino. The Countess, innocent and hiding close by, will be able to intercede. Figaro departs and in preparation, Susanna tries to dress Cherubino in a gown, but he foolishly flirts with the Countess. Before the costume is complete the Count approaches and Cherubino is tossed into hiding. He fumbles and the noise captures the Count's attention. While the Count departs to gather tools to break down the door, Susanna slips into Cherubino's place and the page jumps from the window. But the Countess has confessed that a partially dressed page is behind the door and the Count threatens violence. When Susanna is revealed, the Count apologizes profusely. Figaro arrives announcing the wedding feast. The befuddled Count becomes suspicious and demands explanation of the anonymous letter he received. Just then the inebriated Antonio, the gardener, arrives demanding to know who jumped from the window and destroyed his flowerbeds. In an attempt to appease the situation Figaro claims that it was he who leapt from the window, but Antonio then hands over documents left behind by the page. The Count demands to know of the documents and with some prompting from the women, Figaro asserts that he was delivering Cherubino's enlistment papers, which are awaiting the official seal. The Count is assuaged momentarily, until Marcellina, Bartolo and Basilio enter demanding the Count persecute Figaro for his breech of promise. The act concludes in mass chaos.
Act III
Susanna indulges the Count and plans to meet him in the garden after the wedding. The Count feels successful in his wooing, until he overhears Susanna whispering to Figaro that he is sure to be acquitted. The Count, sensing mischief set against him, expounds on the deceit of a servant having the woman he desires. Meanwhile at Don Curzio's, Figaro claims that he can not marry Marcellina because he does not have his parents' permission. But he is unable to identity his parents, until he discovers proof that they are none other than Marcellina and Bartolo. The family rejoices, Marcellina and Don Bartolo deciding to celebrate their own wedding on the same day as their son and new daughter-in-law. Susanna and the Countess later construct the letter, which will confirm the plan set against the Count. Ladies arrive to bring flowers to the Countess, and the estate hurriedly prepares for a double wedding. Cherubino, who is dressed among the ladies, is spotted and exposed by Antonio. Barbarina intercedes on Cherubino's behalf and pleads with the Count for the one wish he has previously promised her. He succumbs and agrees to let Barbarina marry Cherubino. During the celebration that follows, the Count opens Susanna's letter. Figaro enjoys watching as the Count pricks his finger on the pin that closed the envelope, as festivities ensue.
Act IV
In the garden at night, Barbarina is heard searching for the pin left behind by the Count. Figaro forces her to reveal that she is meant to return it to Susanna to confirm their secret meeting. In a rage of jealously Figaro expounds the injustices and cruelties of women. Meanwhile, Susanna celebrates the excitement of the forthcoming night of love as Figaro mistakes her words for words about the Count and is devastated. Susanna and the Countess adjust their scheme. The Countess, dressed as Susanna, awaits her husband's arrival and finds herself being kissed by the page! Cherubino is tossed off by the Count who then unknowingly charms and adores his own wife. Figaro, seeing "Susanna" kissing the Count finds the "Countess" who he knows is hiding nearby and starts to kiss her. All parties discover the identity of their rightful partner and rejoice in a rightful happily ever after.

Nearly two-thirds of U.S. workers are "not fully engaged in their work" and are" struggling to cope with work situations that don't provide sufficient support," a new study by Towers Watson, a professional services company has found.
The reports says workers are having a hard time finding the kind of positive connection to their companies that yields consistent productivity.
The reason: "almost a decade of pressure to do more with less and respond to the challenges of global competition, ever-evolving technology and the ongoing need for strict cost management."
Well, that about sums it up.
Employers ultimately pay the price.
"It makes companies more vulnerable to lower productivity, higher inefficiency, weaker customer service, and greater rates of absenteeism and turnover," said Julie Gebauer, of Towers Watson.

Don't forget stagnant pay, the constant threat of being laid off and little to no appreciation. That combination doesn't make many very excited to go above and beyond.
July 13th, 2012
10:26 am
why are these workers complaining? Don't they understand how capitalism and free markets work?
Someone has to be the pawn/slave to allow the 1% to maintain their high standard of living.
You want a connection to work? Huh. say What? You must be friggin kidding me. It's work dude it's not supposed to be fun nor do we want you to make an impact on the world.
No one put a gun to their head to work. They need to stop b*tching and get on with work.
I have other workers eager to take their place if they step out of line.
Y'all better not step out of line or I'll crack that whip, you here me. Now get back to your desk and get to work.

Julie Gebauer probably doesn't realize how really true her words are.I lived this nightmare and I know.I watched a great workplace be destroyed by some very strange management practices.Sadly, it was all over before anyone realized it.

The thing that wears me down is never getting a word of encouragement, thanks, or just a pat on the back. Having to baby sit and spoon feed upper tier workers that make twice my pay. And the whole thing of the reward for doing a good job is more work, and there is no penalty for screwing up when you're a manager.

If you're miserable in your job and just going through the motions you're just wasting your life, and your indifferent, resentful attitude is probably affecting people who have to deal with you. Do whatever it takes – different job, more education – to find work that is meaningful and fulfilling.

Small wonder. Employers are taking advantage of the weak job market to further shaft their employees. Fewer people are doing more work, pay is stagnant as prices go up, and too many corporations have zero regard for the welfare of their employees.
Companies demand loyalty from employees, but exhibit no loyalty toward employees, and it does not help that all of the political power is vested in corporations whose interest is in profit alone. Managers know employees have no recourse but to put up with whatever the company wishes to deal out.
Sadly, all it would take to greatly improve morale at most companies is for management to show a little sympathy, compassion and humanity. Unfortunately, those qualities have long since departed.

That's funny. You pay me low wages, you ask me to go above and beyond, you barely provide health coverage, you give little vacation time and sometimes you don't want to give that paid and you don't support my retirement… Yet you want me to work for you like it's my company and deliver loyalty to you when I know you could easily decide to get rid of me and my position with or with out cause…
This is America guys… This is what it's come to.
July 14th, 2012

the company I work for treats employees like dirt and just cut our pay and benefits. No one feels like working hard anymore and just shows up and does the minimum.
July 16th, 2012

Maybe one or two real emoloyees here. Most of of these comments are just astroturf from the dissaffected ideologues who hate work anyway.

I was given a load of new assignments, basically doing the work of 3 positions. When I tried to negotiate a pay increase the president told my manager "no, what's he gonna do, where's he gonna go?". I was good enough to be trusted with the responsibility but not the compensation. You think I gave those people my best after that? Spent every free moment looking for a new job.

Well go to the bank that sound like you are entering quick trip and ask their employees the truth behind those smiles. They are being abused and mistreat but won't say anything because they need their jobs. Upper management has stopped all internal promotions for managers because as they state. " we don't believe we have the right people for the next level of management. They are constantly threatened and trust me the managers are treated like slaves. Now welcome to this……

One of Eric Rohmer's bleaker efforts, Full Moon in Paris is a wry, ironic and insightful comedy with a melancholy streak and a feeling of unspecified disaster lurking underneath the surface. One of Rohmer's most lyrical efforts, much of the film seems to float along, mirroring Louise's somewhat directionless but intuitive questing. Rohmer uses his camera to visually capture the cold, sterile existence that Louise wishes to flee (and also secretly wishes to embrace); the first moment of the film is a tracking shot that roams over an unattractively anonymous suburban setting and comes to a halt when it focuses on Louise's undistinguished but vaguely off-putting house. Throughout, Rohmer shows the audience barren landscapes and hollow urban architecture that contribute to the unsettling feel of the film. As always, his script offers much more in the way of suggestion than explanation, allowing the audience to examine the characters from their own perspectives, and giving the actors freedom to create characters with a full inner life, without worrying about explaining that inner life to viewers. Pascale Ogier turns in a beautifully realized performance, capturing the complexity of the character perfectly and creating a Louise that is at turns engaging and alienating. (Ogier also designed the film's distinctive physical look.) She is well matched by Fabrice Luchini, whose performance sparkles with subtle humor. A gem of a picture, Full Moon would be followed by Rohmer's equally delicious but atmospherically different Summer.

7 Ways to Decorate an Accent Wall
Kim's house tour is a room-by-room lesson in bold, creative decorating, but it's her living room accent wall that floored us the most. The wall, decorated in a photo blow-up of a forest, creates a dramatic backdrop for her black and white living room. If you're searching for similar ways to spotlight a wall in your own home, click below for ideas...
8 Comments
couch/bed info? I love it. where from??
I'm always worried about sticking fabric or other sticky stuff to those darn popcorn walls.
P.S. Two ways to decorate a sofa:
1. Use colorful throw pillows
2. Add cats
Sarahc - or anyone else: do you know how much it would cost to DIY several molding "frames" such as the one on the post about framing wallpaper? I've always been in love with that look, especially in old apartment buildings, and I'd like to figure out if it would be doable to make three such molding frames on a very tight budget, for a wall that is approx. 20 feet long.
Dollars and cents, anyone?
I was just looking at molding last night at Home Depot for framing a mirror.
I would suggest going to an HD or local lumber yard. In the molding section there is usually a display case that has a little piece of every single kind of molding i.e. base trim, cap molding, coving, etc. on display. The pieces of molding can be in lengths up to 16'. My HD has a hand saw in this section for cutting the pieces down to workable lengths. You would need a coping saw and guide at home so that you can cut 45 degree angles.
The pricing is in lineal feet--anywhere from less than a dollar all the way up to $9 dollars a foot for pretty intricate molding. You can keep it really cheap by using a pvc composite molding. Hope that helps.
On the subject of stenciling a feature wall: yes, it is time consuming. but very rewarding!
Kim made that sofa herself, actually. Here's the link to her DIY post:
Lovely, no?
Note: The photo was taken before my DIY sofa was finished - we were short some wood so a couple of sides are missing pieces. And the forest is a mural that I purchased online (designyourwalls.com).
@jplee -- I used plastic polymor wall trim which is much lighter and much less expensive than wood. We rent and couldn't hang the wallpaper directly on the wall, so we made hanging artwork (it's huge - 4' x 6'). If you'd like to see my tutorial, it's available here: http://vintageliving.wordpress.com/2009/02/05/oversized-wall-art-on-the-cheap/
Good luck with your project! I'm really happy with our results.
Thanks, art & vsheaffer - I'll see what I can come up with eventually. (Right now I'm drowning in boxes and bubble wrap, because I move on Monday. Thinking about wall decoration seems like an elaborate escapist fantasy at the moment...)

Gender Inequality in Education: Impact on Income, Growth and Development
AbstractThis Paper explains the causes of the Gender Inequality of education and analyze how the gender inequality in education impacts the economic growth & development, investment and population growth etc. The paper finds that the gender inequality in education is as an endogenous variable and show that it can be explained to a considerable extent by religious preference, regional factors, and civil freedom. For some of these variables, the direction of the effect depends on the particular measure of inequality. The fact that these variables systematically explain gender differentials in education and health suggests that low investment in women's human capital is not simply an efficient economic choice for developing countries.

It's three weeks until this summer's Twilight Concert Series starts, on July 18 with Belle and Sebastian headlining and Blitzen Trapper opening.
There's still one slot on the nine-week concert schedule left unannounced: On Aug. 15. Concert organizers will announce the headliner for that show on Wednesday.
The Cricket has heard from a little bird who it's going to be, but The Cricket isn't sure what to make of it. The artist's name just sounds ludicrous. But maybe The Cricket should check the spelling.

Warren Buffett sues over taxes he doesn't want to pay. Seriously.
I miss the days when the 1% were the 1%. You know, when everyone was wearing monocles to operas about rich people wearing monocles to operas and people encrusted everything with diamonds and lesser human being and people wore furs with the heads still attached.
People enjoyed being rich. Not all this bullshit about not paying enough taxes and telling people you want to pay more and then having your real source of wealth, your company, secretly sue the Internal Revenue Service over your way-too-high tax bill.
NetJets, the private-aircraft company owned by Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK/A), sued the U.S. over excise taxes and penalties totaling $642.7 million assessed against the company.
The Internal Revenue Service improperly assessed the so- called ticket tax, an excise tax on payments made in exchange for air transportation, NetJets said in its complaint in federal court in Columbus, Ohio, dated Nov. 14.
NetJets seeks a refund and abatement of the ticket tax. The company claims in its suit that Congress intended the tax to apply to passengers who use commercial or charter aircraft owned by others.
That's nice. I wonder why the IRS argument that all of this extra taxation will go to feed the starving and clothe the naked and hire more government bureaucrats and union workers isn't compelling to Berkshire Hathaway? I mean, honestly, Warren Buffett said he'd like to pay a greater share. Why not pay a $642.7 million share right now? Is it perhaps because Berkshire Hathaway could do more with the money than a government agency with an endless budget and no oversight could? Could it be because NetJet doesn't appreciate having it's money pried from it's cold, angry hands and re-purposed for the good of the nation?
Sad. Just plain sad.

Take a nice long deep breath. You're going to need to make sure you are as calm as possible when you check her out. She's the definition of beauty. Everything about her is just fantastic. Her great looking tits. You could fuck those beauties until you shot a load all over her pretty face. Speaking of her pretty face, she could be a model. She just has the look of a true model. Then, you notice the one thing that makes her different than all the other girls. She has one hell of a big cock in her panties! That's right, this beauty certainly has enough meat between her legs to keep any man occupied.

Today I want you to take five seconds to meet my newest blogging BFF. Please please please please read the little note about her below, then head over to her blog, show her some love, and tell her I sent ya! I heart her. I really do.
Hey guys! I'm Lesley over at my lively mind. I am still new to blogging, but am loving every minute of it. There are so many amazing blogs and people that I've run across and I can't wait to experience more. Here are a few tidbits about myself.
:: Type A personality. I can't relax and am a perfectionist.
:: I am a new nurse. Welcome to the real world.
:: I am from the St. Louis area. Good ol cornfields & cows.
:: I am the girl who always has multiple lotions in my bag. I hate dryness.
:: lover of dogs, the beach, and sparkles. Simple happiness.
:: obsessed with handwashing Germophobe.
:: I've realized that life is flying by and that I need to slow down and appreciate the beauty in my life. There is so much to be thankful for.
You never know what you're going to find on my blog, but mostly ideas revolving around recipes, hair/makeup, product reviews, crafty projects, and things that make life beautiful and interesting. I love meeting new people and discovering new things along the way.
Stop by my blog and introduce yourself! I would love to meet you.
Here's the link to her blog again, just in case you missed it above! Show her some love and give her a big blogging hug from me! I am still sitting in corporate meetings... pray for me. I have about 600 of your blog posts to catch up on at this point. I love and miss you all! xoxo

Let's talk about another common mistake men make when they want to improve their performance in bed:
Using erection pills. Or sex pills or whatever else they may be called. The purpose of these pills is to make it easier to sustain an erection during sex and to recover it faster after an orgasm, or to make your arousal grow not as fast as usual.
There is a massive industry out there producing, distributing and promoting these drugs. If you have been around on the Internet, I'm sure you've encountered a huge amount of advertisement (and spam) pushing these pills.
Even if we assume that these pills actually always work, always deliver the promised results and never harm you (all of which are quite far-fetched assumptions, I'd say), there is still a major drawback to using them. And that's also how the sex pill industry thrives.
You see, taking a pill in order to stay hard for a longer period of time provides you with only a temporary solution. And if it does work, you get hooked on the sexual benefits it gives you. I'm not saying you get physically addicted, I'm just saying that once you manage to impress your woman or yourself by your performance, you can't just go back to the old way.
So you keep going back to the online store and purchasing more pills. Without this sort of "mental addiction" effect, the pill manufacturers would be out of business in no-time.
A much more effective way of gaining an incredible boost in sexual performance is to develop the ability to have true male multiple orgasms. There are many men who have used pills for a while and only later discovered and unleashed their multiorgasmic skills. I don't think ANY of them would want to go back to using the pill.
You don't have to waste your time, money or health on buying drugs from dodgy online merchants.
See my website to find out how you can become a great lover without any artificial means
Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more!

Great idea
posted 6 years ago
Microchips are a great idea, now we have another why of tracking animals! If we could get every one on board microshipping and checking strays for the chip we could save a lot of animals !
Pros: good why to get pets back home
Cons: not everyone uses them
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

Great Idea
posted 6 years ago
These avid chips are great. Every animal that is at our shelter gets one when it is adopted. They have proven to be very effective in finding owner information when we get a lost dog. Every dog that comes in is scanned for a chip. If it has a chip we can call avid and get the owner's phone number. If there is no chip then we have to hope that the animal either has tags or the owner knows to call us. These chips definately help pets and owners reunite much faster than the animals that don't have a chip. I would recommend that everyone get one for their pet, even if your pet wears a collar. It seems like they always manage to lose their collar when they get loose.
The only thing I caution about is to keep up on the news. I guess there has been an article about the possibility of linking these to health problems. I believe there still needs to be a lot more research to prove this though. I think there is more of a chance of getting cancer from your cell phone than your pet getting cancer from this chip. The electromagnetic radiation from this chip is nowhere near as powerful as your cell phone.
Pros: Great way to help your animals find their way back home
Cons: Need a special receiver to get number

This is such a great thing!

We began microchipping all our cats and dogs before they are adopted from our rescue. The idea is to get a lost pet back home by identification.
This is a great idea - the only way it will work, however is if upon finding a stray or lost animal we scan it for a chip!
Pros: Great way to identify a dog!
Cons: Not all lost dogs are scanned for a chip!!!

I will always have my pets chipped. St Francois Society, our shelter, microchips all their animals. All you have to do to change it over is make a phone call. On several occasions we have had to go to the humane society to pick up one of our animals that someone adopted and threw away. Thank goodness for Avid. They are scanned when dumped and traced back to our shelter. Don't leave home without it.
Pros: none
Cons: none

We chip our shelter dogs!
posted 6 years ago
I am a huge advocate of microchipping all dogs and cats. If a dog or cat is lost without ID tags (or if the tags come off for some reason, which happened to someone I know recently - her dog was found 2 months later but could have died from starvation) the chip is the best form of identification when he is found and turned in to a vet or shelter, or the police.
Pros: Makes identification of a lost dog possible
Cons: Needle to insert the chip hurts

Baby Update: 24 Weeks!
I sure wish time would slow down a little though ... I'm not ready to NOT be pregnant yet! I waited WAY too long for this to have it be over so soon!!!
Though ... considering how HUGE I'm feeling suddenly these last couple of weeks ... I have a feeling my tune could be changing sooner than I think!
Here's the latest picture: (in case you missed it on Facebook earlier!:-)
All of those graphics kind of hide it, but WOWZERS. Mr. Max has GROWN!
(Well, at least his mama has grown...)
Lil' Max is about a foot long and weighs over a pound now! According to my "Sprout" iPhone app, he is now approximately the size of a half-gallon of milk! His lungs are developing a lot these days, and he's also (supposedly) got some hair on his head now. (Wonder if it will be curly like his big sis???)
It's no wonder I suddenly feel huge, 'cause GET THIS ... my uterus is now the size of a SOCCER BALL!!!
What the HECK!?!
It is now well above my belly button (by 2-3 inches). My doctor told me my uterus has expanded (upward) at least three inches in the past month!
(That would explain the extreme "growing pains" I've been experiencing ...)
Unless I have completely forgotten, I never experienced growing and stretching like this with Lucy! I think I was about the size I am now a few weeks before giving birth last time.
This scares me.
What will I look/feel like three months from now!?!
Oh well ... until the "miserable stage" (which I clearly never experienced the first time around, but have heard all about!), I plan to keep on enjoying every second! :-)
Lucy is more and more excited all the time for Max to make his appearance. I couldn't count the amount of times in a day that she brings him up. And she is now proudly (as opposed to regrettably) telling everyone she is having a BROTHER!
She is getting to be such an independent little thing! She's all about dressing HERSELF and brushing her OWN teeth and washing her OWN hands, etc, etc.
Her latest obsession is her bounce house (courtesy of Aunt Stephie). I need to get some photos posted of that soon!
Speaking of posting .... I know I'm still pathetic, BUT did you catch my non-baby-related post the other day!?! The Cookies & Milk Bridal Shower??? It's a good one, too! Be sure to go back and check it out if you missed it the first time! :-)
Thanks for stopping by and keeping tabs on us! Feels so good to have your love and support! :-)

You are lookin' bee-yoo-ti-ful! =)ReplyDelete
yayyyy! I think you are wayyyy too cute prego! AND I am learning a bunch for "someday"!!! :o) I can't wait to "meet" Max! 3 MORE MONTHS! :o)ReplyDelete
SOOOOOO stinkin' cute Bec girl!! LOVE that little man already! SO understand the popping and getting huge the second time around. UGH! I remember feeling like I was 8 mo preggo already in the third month!! ha! So happy for ya!ReplyDelete
You look so cute. I can only imagine how excited Lucy is because my granddaughter is the same way about her 6 month old baby brother. She loves him so much and is great at entertaining him. I love to watch them together. He just smiles at her so big. You are in for so much fun!ReplyDelete
Yay! I miss your regular posts!! :) You look amazing!ReplyDelete
You look beautiful! And to me not big at all! That is so sweet that Lucy is excited for a baby brother. I think little girls are so helpful. She will probably be mommy's little helper. I can't wait to get where you are. Someday!ReplyDelete

I have yet to get around to it, but one day I'll remove my normal door lock in favor of a fingerprint reader or some sort of keyless entry. Until that time I'll just suffer the burden of carrying around a set of keys. Nate on the other hand isn't so patient. He's managed to eliminate most keys from his life with the exception of his car key. So what did he do? Hacked together a Nike+iPod device and key fob, with an Arduino Pro Mini, to create what he calls the iFOB. Now just walking within proximity of his car unlocks his doors. Unfortunately, starting his car still requires a physical key.

This morning a "Rip Van Winkle" 1951 Buick Special Riviera hardtop that a man named Walter Zemple preserved in almost new condition for 60 years was loaded on a Reliable Carriers auto transporter for its trip to a new home in Sacramento, California.
The car was picked up and inspected by Reliable driver Carl Wallin at Gunner's Great Garage in Manawa, Wisconsin. Angelo Van Bogart, the editor of Old Cars Weekly and Bert Lehman of the local newspaper group were on hand to photograph the pick up of the car. Wallin said that Brad Randel, who will be only the second registered owner of the Buick, should be seeing his new vehicle soon, with delivery anticipated the following Tuesday, if the weather along his route permits.
Mr. Zemple, a lifetime resident of Manawa, purchased the car new at Waupaca Motor Sales. Manawa is in Waupaca County. The car was driven only 20,470 miles over six decades and looks, smells and drives like a car possibly a year old. It was Walter Zemple's most prized possession and he took great care of his Buick using it sparingly and showing it occasionally at the Iola Old Car Show, a national event that takes place 15 minutes west of Manawa, in Iola, Wisconsin, the second weekend of each July.
Gunner's Great Garage is shop owned by auto writer John Gunnell that deals in restoration work, appraisals, automotive gifts and books. Diana Kohlbeck of Appleton, Wisconsin helped to settle the estate of her Uncle Walter and asked GGG to publicize the availability of the Buick to Survivor (R) car collectors throughout the United States. Brad Randel learned of the car after seeing it listed on Shane Hanke's Waupaca based Website www.shanes-british-classics.com.
Shipping with Reliable Carriers, Inc., was arranged through the Canton, Michigan based company's General Manager Robert Sellers, Jr. Reliable operates a fleet of 300 auto transporters and has additional locations in Chandler, Arizona, Orlando, Florida and Sun Valley, California.

Each night I see her beauty standing there,
My sweet angel of purity and light,
And thus, I know love and want her care,
My broken heart again must turn to night,
And leave behind the dreams of beauty fair.
I am the darkness, she is innocent,
She drinks the fine wine as I sup on blood,
Her human heart could only be misspent,
As I crush her like some flowering bud,
Thus, I suffice on the hint of her scent.

TEAMS: Indiana Hoosiers
TEAMS: Indiana Hoosiers
The NCAA has agreed to reinstate two Indiana freshmen basketball players after they serve nine-game suspensions and repay a portion of the impermissible benefits they received before arriving on campus. Hanner Mosquera-Perea must pay back $1,590 to a charity of his choice. Jurkin will be required to repay $250 to a charity of his choice. Both players will miss the first nine games of this season, beginning Friday night against Bryant. NCAA officials determined that Jurkin and Perea accepted approximately $6,000 and $8,000, respectively, in impermissible benefits from an Indiana University booster while they were in high school. The benefits included plane tickets, meals, housing, a laptop, cellphone and clothing. Indiana is ranked No. 1 in the preseason Top 25.

At CES, chip giant will discuss limited edition versions of its 3rd Generation Core processors that are Intel's most power efficient to date. Select ultrabooks and tablets from some vendors are expected.
Ultrabooks have the brains, the looks, and they're a cheap date. Can they take out tablets? Plus, Google and China war again, and cancerous cell phone calling.
Apple's new iPads will put more pressure on PC shipments in the coming years, Deutsche Bank said Monday.
Ultrabooks will soon be 100 percent touch. And touch laptops made gains in August, NPD says.
According to new data from iSuppli, flash memory revenue was down 7 percent in 2012.
The chip giant has launched a social media competition where your very own bizarre concept hybrid device could be made into a AU$25,000 prototype.
Samsung is beefing up ultrabook storage space and speed with the first 1TB solid-state drive in the miniature mSATA form factor.
Apple is throwing a wrench into the ultrabook works. The iPad has consumers' attention in the mid-range, while MacBooks own the high end.
The company's Facebook page includes a wide range of deals from ultrabook vendors, including a $350 discount on a Lenovo IdeaPad.
IHS iSuppli slashed its near-term forecast for the thin-and-light notebooks by 53 percent, blaming high pricing and poor marketing.

MEDEX collaborates with other departments and institutions to offer a limited number of unique degree options for specialized educational programs. Please review the options below carefully to determine whether one of these opportunities is appropriate for you.
MEDEX-PharmD Program
MEDEX Northwest and the PharmD Program at University of Washington have agreed to cross-train a limited number of students for a developing role as PharmD/PA-C. MEDEX places a high priority on the development of new niches of physician assistant practice as a strategy for increasing healthcare access throughout the region. The PharmD-PA joint training program creates the unique opportunity to place cross-trained individuals in academic instructional settings, such as residencies, in clinics providing care to the urban and rural medically underserved, and in newly developing hospitalist roles.
The PharmD-PA option is only available to students already enrolled in the Pharmacy Doctorate Program at the University of Washington. Students must be second-year PharmD students in good academic standing. Applicants must meet all MEDEX academic prerequisites, however the clinical experience prerequisite is more flexible.
Satisfactory grades in basic science and pharmacy courses taken within the PharmD program will allow MEDEX Northwest to waive the first summer Basic Science course, and the Patient Mangement course offered by MEDEX Northwest may be waived for students in the MEDEX-PharmD collaborative program.
Year one and two: Enrolled in UW Pharmacy program
Summer after year two: Make an application directly to the MEDEX Physician Assistant Program submitting all required documentation and application materials no later than October 1st. UW PharmD students will be required to complete a CASPA online application. The link to the CASPA website can be found on the Apply to MEDEX page of the MEDEX website. We will also require a MEDEX supplemental application before October 1st.
Year three: Pharmacy school
Summer after year three: Pharmacy rotations and start MEDEX.
Years four & five: The fourth year of Pharmacy School will be partially replaced by years 1 and 2 of PA training. The second year of PA training is comprised of clinical clerkships that will satisfy the elective clerkship requirements for the PharmD program. PharmD-PA students will receive their Pharmacy degree in June of their fifth year, followed by their PA certificate in August.
MEDEX and the Executive Master of Public Health (eMPH)
A collaborative master's pathway is available with the School of Public Health and Community Medicine's Executive MPH degree program. This collaborative pathway is currently being offered to MEDEX students in the bachelor's degree option only (students in the master's option are not eligible for the concurrent program at this time). The eMPH program is designed to be completed in three calendar years and requires the following components.
- Four weeks of intensive in-residence study on the UW campus for each of three summers
- Two academic years of coursework through directed independent study
- Attendance at four on-campus weekend (Fri-Sat) seminars at approximately two-month intervals during the first two academic years
- Completion of a thesis or an agency-related project
- Completion of a practicum (if needed)
MEDEX BCHS students are eligible to apply for the MPH program during their first year of PA training (February application). Acceptance is competitive and students choosing to apply for this option must meet all prerequisites for the MPH program.
Students in the MPH option will be expected to attend MPH classes in Seattle during 3 summer quarters, and also 4 weekends per year over a two-year period. Students accepted by the Executive MPH program will normally begin their public health coursework during the summer between their first and second year of the MEDEX program. Alternative timing would be to start near the end of the clinical phase. MEDEX training will satisfy 6 elective credits, and depending on your rotations, may satisfy 3 required practicum credits in the MPH program. MEDEX will consider a public health focus in arranging your clinical year. The MEDEX clinical elective rotation will be classified as "Public Health", allowing a student to participate in the MPH required summer courses on campus during the MEDEX clinical year. The MPH degree will require a thesis or project, which can be developed during the physician assistant clinical year and completed after graduation from PA school.
Prerequisites for the MPH option include:
- Baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university
- 3.0 grade point average on the most recent 90 quarter or 60 semester credits
- Three years experience in a healthcare field
- GRE within the last six years
Current MEDEX students must consult with designated personnel at MEDEX prior to beginning an application for this dual program option. Contact the main office at (206) 616-4001.

MEDEX and Canadian Training Opportunities
In Canada, over the last 50 years, only the Canadian military trained and utilized physician assistants as part of the medical team. Recently, the Canadian Medical Association granted civilian physician assistants recognition as well. This opens the door to new training opportunities for qualified allied health practitioners to join the field. In May 2013 MEDEX Northwest will accept applications for the 2014 academic year from Canadian applicants to train at our Seattle or Spokane classroom locations.
Canadian students selected for the program must be eligible for a student visa and will choose to attend either the Seattle or Spokane training site for didactic instruction (year one) beginning in June 2014. The clinical training year will be arranged in sites throughout the WWAMI region and possibly some sites in Canada. Canadian applicants must meet all the same academic and clinical experience prerequisites as other MEDEX applicants.
It is our intent that MEDEX graduates will meet the Canadian requirements and professional standards for PA practice in Canada.

Is it me, or does this country seem like it's on a crazy, runaway anti-abortion train? I think we all have deeply ambivalent feelings about abortion. None of us are cheering, "YAY! ABORTIONS FOR EVERYONE! WOO!" But at the same time, there still seems to be support for the right to have an abortion under certain circumstances. Meanwhile, some legislators are trying to literally END abortion forever and ever. What a relief, then, to find out that Arkansas governor Mike Beebe is trying to stop the crazy train, at least in his state. He just vetoed a bill that would ban abortion after 12 weeks.
If passed, this bill would become the strictest abortion law on the books. Beebe says it's unconstitutional. But he may lose this fight -- he vetoed another bill banning abortion after 20 weeks, and the Arkansas legislature overrode his veto.
Governor Beebe is going by the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, where the Supreme Court legalized abortion until a fetus could survive outside the womb, around 22 to 24 weeks. Here's what he said in his veto letter.
Because it would impose a ban on a woman's right to choose an elective, nontherapeutic abortion well before viability, Senate Bill 134 blatantly contradicts the United States Constitution, as interpreted by the Supreme Court. When I was sworn in as governor I took an oath to preserve, protect, and defend both the Arkansas Constitution and the Constitution of the United States. I take that oath seriously.
Some Arkansas lawmakers are vowing to override this veto, too. But they may have finally, FINALLY pushed the anti-abortion boundaries too far. Rep. Greg Leding says lawmakers are getting pressure from their constituents to chill the hell out on the anti-abortion laws. "We pushed as hard as we could last time and came up short, and I don't expect to see that kind of effort this time."
Overall, it looks like politicians overestimate how conservative their constituents are -- by a long shot. Someone forgot to send them the memo that Americans are diverse and open-minded. We're not all reactionary wing-nuts, you guys!
Have we finally had enough -- all over the nation? I know we, collectively as Americans, seem to want some clear laws for abortion. We want those laws to be fair and to reflect reality. Lately, though, anti-abortion laws have taken on a harsh, punishing tone. Lawmakers have created this abortion-hungry straw woman, if you will. This imaginary woman who keeps screwing everything in sight, never using birth control, and running into the abortion clinic every chance she can get like they're giving away candy.
I think we all know that's not the reality. And it's about time we start treating abortion seriously, like adults. I'm glad Governor Beebe stood up extreme lawmakers in his state, and I hope more leaders do the same.
What do you think of Arkansas' bill to ban abortion after 12 weeks?

The thing that gets me is that most of the bans they want to put on abortion don't take into condieration things like rape, incest, and whether the pregnancy will hurt the mother. I live in a VERY conservative state and applauded our governor when he rejected a ban on abortion here because they refused to allow any excepts. Some people don't understand other people situations but still want to push they're opinions on them like it makes no difference.
consideration* and also, i agree that 12 weeks should be enough time to decide.
There are quite a few women out there who don't even know they are pregnant until after 3 months, my mother was one of them. I'm just saying there are certain exceptions to the rule, als if you think about it there are young girls who deny they are pregnant until very late and want to get rid of it as well.
Totally agree on the 12 v. 20 weeks. Also love the comment on the imaginary woman getting abortions - it's not women recklessly getting pregnant and aborting in a vicious cycle. It's a heart wrenching decision for anyone, but should not be the decision of a lawmaker or a conservative who was never put between such a rock and a hard place.
Im baffled by why this is even on their agenda this year, dont they have other issues to work on.
