Finding God...In the Yard?
When I was a child I lived in the country. I did not know for many years that we were poor. I never understood that most folks did not live the way we did. We were happy to be tucked away, hidden from the world by the trees and the sky and the bubbling creek.
I never realized how rich that land made us until much later.
Are we in a depression?
My youngest asks me this not too long ago as we walk the streets of our suburban neighborhood.
Do you mean as a nation or as a family?
Our family…are we in a depression?
Do you mean emotionally or economically?
I quickly run through my head all the conversations his daddy and I have recently had. What has he overheard?
You know, with dad's new job and stuff…are we not doing very well with money?
My husband changed directions, professionally speaking, at the beginning of the year and this choice did, in fact, involve a cut in income. The hope was that this position would be a stepping stone to something more rewarding—more stable--and the salary cut would be worth it. However, things never go according to plan and as the months tick by we grow a bit anxious.
My boy doesn't miss much.
We have to be more careful with money than we used to be. But the fact is, we are still doing better than a lot of people. We need to be thankful for what we have and be good stewards of it.
So. We ARE in a depression.
I look at my son and see him. I see this middle-class kid with his Nike tennis shoes, braces, and big blue eyes. And I remember hand-me-down clothes and dirty bare feet. I remember day-long hikes in the woods and long walks to the bridge on summer days. I remember leaf-filtered sunshine and tall grasses bending in the breeze.
Nah, I wouldn't say that, I say. We are rich. Richer than anything.
I squeeze his hand and take off running. He runs after me, scattering coins of laughter in the wind. We meet again at the bridge and stand together in silence--staring into water rippling over rocks.
We wade through treasure on the way home. Moments of countless worth. Gems sparkle on the water and golden rays surround us.
If I could, I would take my boys to live in the country. We would dine on joy, spend sparkling days like so many pennies in my change purse...and go to sleep to the sound of earth's lullaby. But for now, this place—this edge off the city--will do. We can make it fit. With the riches we have, we'll buy the accommodations. They won't be secret spots, but they will feel like they are. Small spaces in our neighborhood where we let our spirits drift on the wind. Where we can play towards God—delight in Him.
Some of this play will be light-hearted, but mostly it involves letting ourselves feel. My boys have no trouble with this; but their mother? For me, to feel freely, I must remember. I must remember what it is to be a child.
And I must come to God this way.
Written in response to week one of God in the Yard: Spiritual Practice for the Rest of Us by L.L. Barkat. I'll be posting off and on--as the spirit moves--about my journey with L.L. through this lovely book.

i understand. being rich is a matter of the heart. some of my closest times with God was when my families house was being foreclosed. it was the time when my dad and i started getting along and realizing we were both on the same side.
thanks for sharing. - May 26, 2010 at 10:42 AM

Loved this post...so thankful He can be found anywhere. We've had three seasons with our Engineering firm of not taking pay checks trying to keep employees paid...our girls have learned SO MUCH during those seasons and we always have a check in our hearts and minds about what has become our focus. We've all grown as many days require an act of faith to move forward...trusting for what we don't see but choosing to celebrate ALL that we do have, within us and around us. It's the little things that slip by...I need to embrace them as a child.

You all are welcome here in our bit of country...
These words ring loud today. As we seek Him, He is leading us to a drastic pay cut, another move, and going deep into pasturelands where we will need Him for the sustenance of each day--even more so than now.
So, who would willing enter through the doors of an economic depression? I reckon we would, as long as God's the one holding it open for us.

"We wade through treasure on the way home..."
As a former city girl, I am still amazed to live in the hilly country I do now, to wander through my very own field, to shop at a quiet Mennonite country store- your post spoke to me in a deep way. - May 26, 2010 at 11:32 AM

I grew up an hour from the ocean. Summer Saturdays, we loaded up the station wagon with shovels and pails, towels, and sunscreen. Sometimes we'd stop at the boardwalk on our way out. Sometimes we'd just rinse our feet in the pail of ocean water my dad carted from the beach to our car, cuddle in the back, and sleep while our parents drove us home.
That is where I still meet God.
P.S. I love the phrase about scattering coins of laughter. - May 26, 2010 at 11:36 AM

AMEN...we need to get rid of all of the "junk/stuff" in our lives and come freely to GOD! The clutter of our lives do hinder us or can hinder us.

Beautifully written post, Laura.
Earlier this morning, I read Andy Whitman's post at Image Journal, which he framed in the context of what we give up to have something else. Had I read your post first, I might have responded a little differently to his, because, as you write so well here, we don't have to give up anything, except the things that don't matter, to be rich beyond imagining.

I've not given my children many moments of "yard play" over the years. The older two are mostly on their own by now, but I think we missed something in their earlier years... the notion of something simpler. With the younger two, I hope to give them more moments of "yard play"... perhaps years have made me wiser to the simple beauty of yard living. I hope so, because for some reason tonight, this post makes me sad...
did you mean to do that?
Oh for the grace of God that covers all the seasons I missed and didn't get it perfectly right with my kids. That being said, the yard's still here, and I've still got some "play" left in me...

Incredible as always.
Lots here to think on. To savour.
and I am only recently thinking I could live in the country. While I love the expansive outdoors compared to suburbia, I have some baggage there.
and I was pretty much a city/not as nice suburbia girl as a kid prior to the rural route.
There is a richness in how we see , not what, I guess. And as long as it's outside vs in mostly. - May 26, 2010 at 7:11 PM

Yes, savor is a good word for this post. Being together, sharing life - in this we are rich. Love the images you share.

I love it when my kids play outside -- but in our small urban yard it's hard to get the same feel. This post reminds me how important it is to show them the meaming of true riches. Not an easy task!

We can make it fit.
That's a lot right there, isn't it? Making it fit -- this place where we are, making it where we want to be.
I think we might call that content. And I always like how rich content feels.
We're in one of those economic transitions at our house too, making the necessary adjustments, trying to not to alarm the teenagers. It's an interesting climb. - May 26, 2010 at 11:20 PM

I love this! Both the sentiment and the words expressing it. Beautiful inside and out.
I understand so well the questions of "wealth" when seen through the eyes of middle class children who have lived their entire lives in suburbia. My daughter asked if we were poor because I couldn't/wouldn't buy her a pair of Uggs. Or why we can't go on annual vacations to places like Costa Rica or Spain like her friend's family does. Thank God our mission trip to the Dominican Republic last year opened both my children's eyes to real poverty...and real joy. We all need these reminders.
The richness you describe can never be purchased with material wealth. Thanks for this lyrical example. - May 27, 2010 at 8:04 AM

Love finding God in the yard. This week I was stopped in my tracks and spent 15 minutes laying across the yard just to get a few pics of mushrooms. I'm a little obsessed. But it was worth it.
"scattering coins of laughter" that is my favorite line. I can see them hitting the ground and bouncing.
So beautitful. - May 27, 2010 at 9:05 AM

I love this...seeing from their perspective. My man was laid off four months ago...but we are currently richer than we have ever been. Money is tight. very tight. but family is tighter and that makes us very rich. :) I wouldn't have traded these months for months of a paycheck and a routine!

This post reminds me of several conversations we've had recently with our children...I'm not sure any of us (our family) truly recognize how blessed we are...to live here in this time and place. God has been good to us...just wish we were better at showing Him how much we appreciate it. Wide open spaces are special...easier finding what really matters there-for me anyway.
Great post! So heartfelt...so easy to read, easy to find inspiration. - May 28, 2010 at 11:29 AM

Wonderful and challenging writing, we are indeed very rich people. Wealth is a term that can be misinterpreted.
If we love the Lord we are rich in spirit. If we seek and serve the spirit of the Lord we are wealthy in heart.
If we have peace within ourselves, no amount of money is more valuable. - May 29, 2010 at 1:30 PM

I have a son who worries about money. Don't know why or where he got it from. Maybe it's because I'm a bit of a penny pincher---I just love being frugal; it's kind of a fun habit. :)
Thanks for the welcome back. I still walk with a lurch, as if on a train. :)
Got my book club post up in time! Left a comment at HCB too, but it's probably in spam.
Nice to come back and find your words always here. So nice. - May 31, 2010 at 7:58 PM

mbSEQ panels by julianf
Posted 02 December 2010 - 01:55
Ill take some snaps when its done, and people can see what they think.
Posted 04 December 2010 - 12:39
tnx, G.
Posted 05 December 2010 - 00:04
Ive produced one 17" panel for demonstration - i will photograph it, and upload the shots, and then see if there is any interest.
As for the mb6582 panels - lexan will always be cheaper, but i, personally, do not like the longevity of stickers. But that is a choice for the buyer - i only do engraing.
I pretty much always have mb6582 panels in stock - the production of them doesn't scale in the same way, so i am able to make them in smaller numbers when people want them.
Posted 06 December 2010 - 02:19
Edge profiling - 1.5mm
Screen recess - 2.0mm (to match the acrylic screens i was giving away last time)
Stand-off wells - 2.0mm
If there is interest, im sure i could make the rear panels also.
Posted 06 December 2010 - 05:19
Posted 10 December 2010 - 15:27
Im guessing i start another thread here, and get people to add their names? I have no idea at all when it comes to wiki pages.
I dont need many to start cutting - just a handfull of orders would be enough to start. Lead time from me is normally pretty minimal, but im wondering if people may want to wait untill the cases are in production?
At present, i guess i should ask if anyone wants the green on black panel i made for the demo? Or maybee thats a job for the 'flea market' section?
Posted 20 December 2010 - 03:32
Posted 20 December 2010 - 15:00
Are these sized for the aluminium desktop chassis?
The 19" ones i was doing before were for standard rack mount cases, but these 17" ones are for the desktop units.
You can see silver lines along the top and bottom edges in the photos - this is where these edges of the panel have been profiled into a sort of step shape, as to fit within the extruded alluminium that the desktop chassis are to be made from.
(the 19" panels dont have this profiling - just a standard cut along the edge)

Posted 23 May 2011 - 18:02
I have just ordered in some different colour finishes for the 2.0mm low(er) cost panels.
Below are some 19" units in the same low-cost style -
Anyhow, if anyone is interested, this design could also be used in the desktop case, and would represent a decent saving over the 3.0mm panels.
When the metal turns up, ill cut some demo panels, and post them up here to see if there is any interest.

Anyhow, if anyone is interested, this design could also be used in the desktop case, and would represent a decent saving over the 3.0mm panels.
Definately interested, especially the blue front panel looks quite good. But maybe we should wait for the desktop case bulk order to be finished?
Has a fitting PCB with the frontpanel stuff been made yet? (It's hard to keep yourself up-to-date if you don't have the time to look at the forum frequently)
Which push button types does this one use?

This is for Wilba's PCB that uses the more or less standard TL1100F160Q switch
For documentation purposes I'll link to the Wilba thread: http://midibox.org/f...-matching-case/
Wiki: http://www.midibox.o...pcb_bulk_order?
I'm already in the PCB bulk order list and subscribed to the thread, so everything is fine.
Just another question: Will you also make matching back panels? I'd like to have blue front and back panels.
Are the 2 mm panels solid enough?

Yes. Im just waiting on the case group buy to check all the details, but the intention is to produce the rear panels also. Cost of rear panels TBC.
Are the 2 mm panels solid enough?
They will be more than strong enough for the desktop enclosure. You will be supporting virtually no weight / force from them, and they will be supported themselves by the enclosure on both the top and lower edge. There is no doubt at all that they are quite adequate for the application.
Posted 23 August 2011 - 20:30
So these panels will fit the case from the bulk order right? Just want to double check. Thanks!
Posted 25 September 2011 - 19:46
is there a group buy running? Maybe i'm blind but i can't find it in the forum.
Posted 30 September 2011 - 20:27
First - due to the issues with the case group buy's im obviously not making 100s of these in preparation just yet, and...
Second - we are in the process of moving location, so there will be some points where my lead times are not as swift as they usually are (normally i aim to ship the same week the order comes in, even on custom 1-off jobs)
What may be best is if i wait to see how the case issues pan out, and then make up some smaller batches and see how they go.
At present (as i type this) i do have a few mbseq panels in 19" 2.0mm format. I will have to check, but i think i have matt red, and gloss blue / gloss black in stock for immediate shipping.
Thanks, Julian
Posted 06 October 2011 - 15:42
I am also interested in ordering a pair of panels (matching the case bulk order in the other thread). Just for the record ;)


text: Joseph A. McNeil, LL.D. Hon. retired Major General in the Air Force Reserves and the Federal Aviation Administration, and an important figure in U.S. civil rights history is a featured speaker on Monday, January 26 during St. John's 15th Annual Founder's Week Celebration. His presentation, "Transformation: Vision and Values," will take place at the University's "Little Theater" on the Queens Campus at 4:30 p.m., and at the St. John's Staten Island Campus on January 27 at 11:00 a.m. in the Kelleher Center. Reservations to attend the lecture can be made by e-mail at email@example.com or by calling (718) 990-1612. Mr. McNeil will speak about the role he played in American civil rights history and reflect on the transformation we are undergoing as a nation as we inaugurate the 44th American President, the first of Kenyan-American ancestry. There will be time for questions after the presentation. Maj. Gen. McNeil is a man of great honor and integrity. Before his military career he played a pivotal role in the Civil Rights Movement. As a freshman at North Carolina A&T State University in 1960, Mr. McNeil and three other students staged a sit-in at a F.W. Woolworth lunch counter that served "whites only". These four students became known as the "Greensboro Four." From this historic protest at one counter in a Woolworth in Greensboro, North Carolina; their cause grew across the South like a wildfire. The group of four swelled to 75,000 students who participated in staged demonstrations in 54 cities across the South. This group became known as the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC).

Critical Essays
Samuel Taylor Coleridge Poetry: British Analysis
Samuel Taylor Coleridge's major poems turn on problems of self-esteem and identity. Exploring states of isolation and ineffectuality, they test strategies to overcome weakness without asserting its antithesis—a powerful self, secure in its own thoughts and utterances, the potency and independence of which Coleridge feared would only exacerbate his loneliness. His reluctance to assert his own abilities is evident in his habitual deprecation of his own poetry and hyperbolic praise of William Wordsworth's. It is evident as well in his best verse, which either is written in an unpretentious "conversational" tone or, when it is not, is carefully dissociated from his own voice and identity. By means of these strategies, however, he is often able to assert indirectly or vicariously the strong self he otherwise repressed.
"The Eolian Harp"
Writing to John Thelwall in 1796, Coleridge called the first of the conversation poems, "The Eolian Harp" (written in 1795), the "favorite of my poems." He originally published it, in 1796, with the indication "Composed August 20th, 1795, At Clevedon, Somersetshire," which dates at least some version of the text six weeks before his marriage to Sara Fricker. Since Sara plays a role in the poem, the exact date is crucial. "The Eolian Harp" is not, as it has been called, a "honeymoon" poem; rather, it anticipates a future in which Coleridge and Sara will sit together...

Signs of Spring
Well, Spring must officially be close, if not actually here. We had a touch over 60 degrees today and theyre calling for 65 tomorrow. The snow is all gone, and the crocuses are blooming all over my yard. I saw a night crawler on the blacktop in the driveway and theres been about 50 or 60 robins out in the beanfield for better than a week. The daffodils are poking through out in the front flower beds.
Man made signs include getting the lawn chairs back outside and pulling the tank heater out of the horse trough. I even wore a regular tee shirt today instead of a long sleeved one and I had on regular jeans instead of the flannel lined ones.
Hopefully winter is behind us, but dont be surprised if you see me chipping ice out of the horse trough while wearing my heavy hunting clothes sometime in the next few weeks. Mother Nature has been known to play tricks.

You are right on lemonsquare. Not only does it defeat the purpose of playing when they randomly change the game and tell no one but the change makes the current scores impossible to beat.
I am baffled by this decision which is why I can only rationalize this as a mistake. If these people understood the community in their game they would have never done this. A decision like this would prove how out of touch they are with their own game. A decision like this goes against everything they have done previously. Which is why this has to be a mistake.

Childhood Cancer Survivorship
Watch two videos -- Childhood Cancer Survivorship Overview, with Gregory Reaman, MD [2] and Late Effects of Childhood Cancer Treatment, with Lisa Diller, MD [3], adapted from this content.
There are about 12 million cancer survivors in the United States, many who were diagnosed when they were under the age of 21. Over the last thirty years, improved treatment strategies and better supportive care have resulted in increased survival rates for many childhood cancers. Today, 75% of children and adolescents with cancer will survive ten years or more after treatment.
The most common childhood cancers are:
- Leukemia, which accounts for 34% of all childhood cancers. Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) [4] is the most common type of leukemia in children.
- Brain tumors and other tumors of the central nervous system [5] are the second most common childhood cancer and make up 27% of all childhood cancers.
- Lymphoma, both Hodgkin [6] and non-Hodgkin [7], makes up about 8% of all childhood cancers.
Read about other types of childhood cancer [8].
Statistics adapted from the American Cancer Society's publication, Cancer Facts & Figures 2011 and the National Cancer Institute.
Although most children are successfully treated for cancer, the treatment can cause side effects known as late effects that occur months, or even years, after treatment is completed. Late effects can occur almost anywhere in the body and include physical problems, such as heart and lung problems, and emotional and cognitive (memory, thinking, and attention) problems, such as anxiety, depression, and learning disorders. It is important for all children treated for cancer to get lifelong follow-up care.
The Children's Oncology Group (COG) has studied the physical and psychological effects that childhood cancer survivors face. Based on these studies, COG has established guidelines for the long-term follow-up of childhood cancer survivors at www.survivorshipguidelines.org [9].
IOM Report
In, 2003, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released a report [10] entitled Childhood Cancer Survivorship: Improving Care and Quality of Life. This report describes the impressive advances in treatment for childhood cancers over the past three decades. In addition, it reviews the variety of late effects that survivors of childhood cancer may have, emphasizing the importance of continued follow-up care throughout their lives. Review more details about this IOM report. [10]

The Jane Twone's evolutionary and convertible design allows it to adapt too many different combinations; you can change it from a single to a twin pushchair in just a few seconds! Just as comfortable and as an individual pushchair as it offers great versatility when connecting infant car seats, carrycots and seat units that fitted easily thanks to the pro fix system.
The Jane Twone is extremely compact and multifunctional, specially designed to grow with your family whether you have one child, twins or children of different ages. Personalise it however you like and you'll discover many surprising combinations
I brought this pushchair even though I was totally in love with the icandy. I have a 21 month old toddler and newborn so I needed a double push chair that was good for every day use. I also travel a lot with the kids so needed something that wasn't too bulky. Before looking at this pushchair I was going to order the icandy but I am so glad I didn't this pushchair is light and easy to handle even with both children in it. Definitely worth looking at before you spend silly money My only down point is that the raincovers are quite bulky and don't come with a bag
The new Twone pushchair works well with every family, whether you have one child, twins or children of different ages. When being used as a single pushchair, you have the advantages of a big shopping basket, reversible seat unit and you can also add the transporter carrycot. In twin mode the seat unit, like the front seat unit, has three recline positions. You can also add either the Strata car seat or Matrix car seat that converts into a carrycot. Compacted when folded and practical when in use with its puncture proof wheels, it is a must have for all families.

The Parking Lot that Changed Las Vegas
We learned last week that Harrah's, struggling under billions of dollars of debt, will postpone the opening of the Octavius Tower, which has been under construction since 2006. The 660-room tower won't open until demand for Vegas hotel rooms improves. There's a subtle irony here, for those who know strip real estate history.
The rise of Steve Wynn from slot manager and minority owner at the Frontier, to hotelier controlling the Golden Nugget, came because of a brilliant real estate deal forged between Howard Hughes, banker E. Parry Thomas, Wynn, and Caesars' (long before Harrah's was involved). The land was the very property on which today sits the unfinished Octavius Tower.
Its all about those high voltage power lines that run along the south edge of the Caesars' property, that jog and run between Bill's Gambling Hall and Saloon (formerly the Barbary Coast) and the Flamingo. In the 80s, those lines ran a straight line across the street and formed the southern edge of Caesars. Howard Hughes owned the property south of the lines to Flamingo Boulevard.
Wynn was able to convince Howard Hughes to give him an option to buy that land, which was a remarkable feat as Hughes rarely sold investment land, and he let it known around town that he intended to build a casino much like the Barbary Coast. It wasn't long before Caesars' was offering the sun, sky and moon, and with the profits, Wynn took control of the Golden Nugget.
So Caesars' cancelling expansion plans shortly after Wynn successfully opened his Encore expansion has some real historic irony in Las Vegas. Steve Wynn end-runs Caesars' again!

Lt. Bob Johnson plans to run for Santa Rosa County sheriff in 2016 and is taking advantage of a recent transfer to the main office in Milton to gain experience.
After serving as the District 2 Supervisor in Navarre for two and a half years, Johnson has been assigned to an administrative position in the main office in Milton.
Sheriff Wendell Hall said the he is rotating his lieutenants to work in administrative positions in Milton.
"We've got some divisions that will need to be filled in the next couple of years because of retirements," said Hall. "So I'm rotating lieutenants in and out of positions to see who is best suited for the position(s) in a captain's capacity."
For the complete story, see the Jan. 24 issue of Navarre Press or subscribe online.

The internet is amazing. It has the potential to make a positive difference to our own lives, the lives of those around us and the world we live in too.
So, I thought it was appropriate to follow my introduction of iKnowHow with a post that had a bit less about cats and more about what a 'wiki' actually is.
Most of us will know about wikis from the huge site Wikipedia; the free, collaborative, multilingual internet encyclopaedia. Wikipedia is without a doubt the most successful wiki ever - with over 100,000 regular contributors and a total of 20 million articles written by volunteers around the world. According to Alexa, it's the 6th most popular website in existence.
But it's not just Wikipedia. There are thousands of different types of wikis across the internet, from the enormously popular Muppets Wiki to the infamous WikiLeaks. In short, wikis are commonplace, we already use them and they're here to stay. more >

We've still got seven weeks to go until Election Day 2012, but early moves for the 2016 presidential election seem to be underway.
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, a possible contender for the next Democratic presidential nomination, gave the keynote address at the 35th annual steak fry put on by Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa.
The steak fry, hosted by Iowa's five-term senator, is a big annual fundraiser for the state's Democratic party, and is an important stage for Democrats thinking of making a run for the White House (then Sen. Barack Obama of neighboring Illinois gave they keynote address in 2006) in the state that traditionally holds the first contest in the presidential caucus and primary calendar.
"That's not what I'm doing here. I'm here because my friend Sen. Harkin asked me to come," O'Malley told reporters, downplaying presidential ambitions, before addressing Democratic activists gathered at the event.
O'Malley, a two term governor and chairman of the Democratic Governors Association, is a frequent surrogate for President Obama's re-election campaign. O'Malley, along with Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia and Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, made appearances at a breakfast hosted by Iowa's convention delegation during the Democratic National Convention, held two weeks ago in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Iowa is also a crucial battleground state in the general election. Monday Vice President Joe Biden and Rep. Paul Ryan, the GOP vice presidential nominee, make separate campaign appearances in Iowa.

Should classical try something different just to increase its audience?
In last week's Boston Phoenix, classical music critic Lloyd Schwartz (a long-time Fresh Air regular) reviewed Chorus pro Musica's performance of Joseph Haydn's oratorio "The Creation." As you can read, this was not just your standard concert performance of a great work. Rather, a young British video artist called Joss Sessions produced a series of video projections which were "performed" (i.e., shown) while the work played on. As usual, Schwartz does an excellent job describing what took place and assessing the quality and wisdom of what was going on. Indeed, Schwartz is a leading exemplar of"The Fifteen Commandments of a Reviewer" which critic Terry Teachout recently posted on his blog. He's very good at what he does. As to what he says; well, there I have some problems, And where I have repeatedly disagreed with Schwartz over the years can be summed up in the final question of his review: "Is it ever a good idea to be different just to sell tickets?"
Trust me, I've been reading Lloyd Schwartz long enough to know that his own answer to his question would be no. Keeping Teachout's Fifteen Commandments in mind as I review the reviewer (maybe more like critique the critic), I think I can fairly characterize Schwartz as a staunch upholder of serious 20th century classical values, and as a protector of the art form against the evils inflicted upon it for the sake of either stylistic fads or commerce. With some exceptions (e.g., his advocacy of the grossly overrated Peter Sellars), Schwartz does not put up with any funny business.
My answer to Schwartz's question is yes. It is sometimes a very good idea to try something different to see whether it increases audience size. For me, presenters try to increase audience size not "just to sell tickets" — funny how crass and commercial audience-building sounds when you put it that way. They do it also to increase the number of ears theyre reaching, and the number of lives they're enriching, with the presentation upon which they've lavished so much care. And more is better. Besides, unless you try something different once in a while, how are you going to find out what works and what doesn't? After all, someone (this Wikipedia article credits Lofti Mansouri of the Canadian Opera) had to be the first to project titles (i.e., English translations) during an opera performance, no doubt hoping to increase the appeal of his company's productions. It worked, despite the doubts of many at the time, and is substantially responsible for the rising fortunes of live opera in the last 20 years. What North American company would not now provide a similar service? And if someone hadn't tried it, how else would we know it works?
Of course, not every different idea is a good idea, or ends up a success. Lloyd Schwartz gave his opinion of Chorus pro Musica's different idea in his review; their patrons also gave their opinions by staying or leaving, no doubt with comments, and by other means. Maybe it was a dud. But should we then say that trying different ideas to see which might increase audience size is a bad thing? It strikes me that not only is it instead a good thing, but that the way things are with classical audiences, we could use a heck of a lot more of it.

EMS Q3: Cloudy, with a Chance of Pitfalls |
Checking our pool of 30 or so publicly traded EMS companies that have thus far reported third-quarter earnings, we see an industry that is decidedly mixed. Exactly half of those in our pool reported net income rose over last year. And 16 said sales are higher. Of the Tier 1s, Foxconn and Jabil said sales were up, and Foxconn and Flextronics saw higher profits. Celestica and Sanmina-SCI saw revenues fall while Plexus' and Benchmark's rose. However, all but Sanmina took profit hits. Confused yet? The mid tier EMS groups were no easier to divine. On the larger side, Nam Tai and IMI had great quarters all around, Kimball saw operating profits and sales climb, and Venture's sales ticked up too (it hasn't reported profits yet), but Fabrinet (whose recovery continues) saw both figures slip. Key Tronic was up, CTS was down. Scanfil was up, Note was down. Neways was up, PartnerTech was down. You get the idea. The good news is, most companies, especially the larger ones, saw higher revenues in the third quarter than they did in the first. This could be another sign that the traditional seasonality has returned, which would be welcome at least because it makes things a little more predictable. In listening to the various analyst calls and poring over the quarterly reports, it seems many companies reaped the benefit of existing programs in the September period, while those who didn't were plagued mostly by new product starts, which are a drag on earnings. The former could hide some deeper some concerns, because all programs eventually come to an end, and if overall launches are on the decline, it could spell trouble down the road. This could be why several EMS companies, which collectively tend to be a bit gunshy bunch anyway, warned that the December quarter might be slower than the last.

A border agent every 1,000 feet, every hour of every day, supported by 700 miles of fencing along the Mexican frontier.
No green cards for the 11 million immigrants living illegally in America until those steps and others to enhance border controls are taken. And none of it increases the federal deficit or debt.
A bipartisan group of senators unveiled a compromise on Thursday intended to ensure Senate passage of a major immigration reform bill with enough Republican support to persuade the GOP-controlled House to also take up the measure that is a priority of President Barack Obama.
The bipartisan amendment would require 20,000 more border agents, completing 700 miles of fence along the boundary with Mexico, and deploying $3.2 billion in technology upgrades similar to equipment used by U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The proposal, negotiated by a group of senators from both parties known as the "Gang of Eight," also insists on stronger worker verification and border entry-exit controls.
Only after those five conditions have been met and verified by the Department of Homeland Security can undocumented immigrants get permanent residency, supporters said.
GOP Sens. John Hoeven of North Dakota and Bob Corker of Tennessee introduced the compromise amendment, saying it incorporated proposals from other senators to try to fix a broken immigration system.
Hoeven noted the bill would allow immigrants now living illegally in the country to get temporary legal status as "registered provisional immigrants," but the increased security measures must be in place before they can get green cards to make them permanent residents.
Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a member of the "Gang of Eight," noted it would take "a couple of years" to train and deploy the new agents in an expansion that would almost double the current force.
The Department of Homeland Security would verify when the triggers for improved border security had been met to begin issuing green cards, Graham added.
He also said the measure would include increased fees and other mechanisms to pay for the cost expected to exceed $30 billion, citing a Congressional Budget Office report that showed the broader immigration measure would bring in $197 billion in revenue over the next 10 years.
"I am very pleased to support what I think is the most dramatic amendment in the history of our country to get our borders secured," Graham said.
However, some conservative GOP senators remained skeptical that the proposal would address their concerns.
Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions said the compromise means "amnesty will occur," and he complained that despite all the promises made by its sponsors and supporters, no written version had been produced so far.
Sessions also noted that the compromise only came about in reaction to revelations about shortcomings in the original bill uncovered by critics including himself.
Roy Beck, president of a group that opposes the immigration reform measure, called the compromise "a desperate political move by pro-amnesty forces to provide cover to pass a bill that would otherwise not pass."
The amendment "allows the massive increase in foreign workers that the CBO says will lower American wages and increase unemployment," said Beck, president of NumbersUSA.
In contrast, GOP members of the "Gang of Eight" said they supported the plan.
Veteran Sen. John McCain of Arizona said Congress must resolve the issue of 11 million undocumented immigrants "living in the shadows" under the current broken system.
Citing the nation's "Judeo-Christian" tradition, McCain asked if it was "in our nation to come together and pass this legislation and not come up with reasons for not doing it."
Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake noted that he expected the compromise amendment would persuade a dozen or so Republicans to support the overall bill.
"This border security package will bring on a number of Republicans," Flake said. "We've always said the bill would be improved through the process and this is part of that improvement."
Supporters want to win at least 70 votes in the 100-member Senate, hoping such a solid majority would give the measure much-needed momentum in the GOP-controlled House.
Earlier this week, House Speaker John Boehner rejected having the GOP-controlled chamber vote on an immigration measure if it needed Democratic votes to pass.
"I don't see any way of bringing an immigration bill to the floor that doesn't have majority support of Republicans," Boehner, R-Ohio, told reporters.

I got the 2009 Reynolds Assault and with these pads. They're great on the flat ok on the hills. They do squeel on the hills or hard braking. The Swissstop Yellow pads, which suppose to be the bees knees, with underwhelming results around the hills. I rode once around the hills once and as the descent got steeper (25%) the brake started to squeal and lose braking power. I had to stop to let the brake pads and brake track cool down before the twisty section as I'm not confident that I can brake enough to negotiate the corner. It performed ok after the they cooled down. Honestly, I won't be taking these wheels and pads for mountain races. May use Reynolds own new blue pads to see whether I've better results

Don't you ever feel frustrated having to follow so many principles and rules in the art of stress-free productivity?
Are there some of you who have been practising for a long time you still don't really get it?
I am currently in the progress of finishing a book written in the 40s by Mortimer Adler called 'How to Read a Book'. It is a practical book that proposes readers to adopt a set of behaviours if they wish to understand great challenging books above their intelligence level. The various acts in the skilled operations, including specific actions and rules one must take and follow, constitute the art of reading.
When we speak of someone who is skilled in anything - in the art of stress-free productivity or in the art of music - we are pointing to the fact that they possess the habit of doing it, not simply knowing the rules of which the habit is founded upon.
Anyways, I wanted to share a short passage from the book. I think it helps to frame the complexity of the art of stress-free productivity quite well.

Got into the SUSE Studio Beta
Yesterday I got an unexpected email from email@example.com. It was telling me that I had been accepted into the SUSE Studio Beta! Now, I applied when the service was first announced, several months ago, and had completely forgotten about it. But nonetheless I was excited. Tonight I got a chance to try it out. I'm rebuilding my current workstation using it, and will see how it runs by building a disk image, using their 'Testdrive', and then downloading and installing the disk image. Expect a review of it before this time next week.

He has accused Dutschke of stalking him online, a claim the former taekwondo instructor has denied.
Dutschke told reporters this week that he did not know Curtis well.
"He's just a little nutty. I don't have a relationship with him," he said.
"I've met him two times in person, and then there was a third time we sent e-mails back and forth."
In the e-mail exchange, according to Dutschke, he accused Curtis of posting a fake membership certificate for MENSA, the high-IQ organization. Curtis acknowledged that he posted a fake certificate, but said he did it to catch Dutschke stalking him online.
Ties to letters?
Authorities have not said how they linked the letters to Dutschke, who appears to have personal ties to at least two of the three people who were sent letters.
In 2007, Dutschke failed in his bid as a Republican to defeat Democratic state representative Steve Holland, whose mother, a judge, received one of the ricin-tainted letters.
"We just want to move on," Holland told CNN, adding that he wanted justice for his mother.
"This could have been devastating. Mom could have died had this taken the worst-case scenario."
Dutschke also has said he has met Wicker.
Other charges
Dutschke, meanwhile, faces molestation charges in an unrelated case.
According to a grand jury indictment handed down this month and obtained by CNN, he is accused of molesting three girls under the age of 16. The accusations go back as far as 2007, according to the indictment.
Dutschke has repeatedly denied the charges in interviews with local media, and he pleaded innocent in court this month.
He closed his taekwondo studio after the allegations were made public.
