A great composer you rarely hear on WFCR
A giant of American classical composition died yesterday, at the gigantic age of 103. Not only did Elliott Carter enjoy tremendous longevity, his keen mind and good health allowed him to compose well into his last year, each new work further burnishing his sterling reputation among musicians, critics and a coterie of fans. Carter's sonatas, concertos, symphonic and vocal works and especially string quartets constitute extremely significant additions to their genres, like all great works speaking for their time, place and creator as well as honoring their great tradition. Here, clearly, was a composer to include on any list of America's most important.
Yet despite all of the above, you will rarely encounter any of Carter's music on WFCR. Not to make it "all about us," but I thought this would be a good time to explain why this is, and why it indicates no disrespect for Carter or his work.
Listeners come to WFCR's classical music from many angles and for many reasons. Our audience includes a small (but vocal!) percentage of trained musicians, a few utter neophytes and, mostly, folks who really like classical music, wouldn't claim expertise, enjoy hearing their favorites, and are also fairly open to new sounds and new information. For most, the music accompanies some other activity, such as working, driving or even talking, though the music is also there for concentrated listening when something catches their ear.
This affects how we decide what music to play and what music, despite its quality, we don't play as much or at all. A reasonably degree of accessibility, while not sufficient, is a necessary quality for a piece of music to make it onto the playlist. Music that demands close listening and repeated hearings is going to get neither from most listeners (a fact of life and radio, not a criticism), so is not going to be shown at its best even if played. This goes for the old masters, which is why Beethoven's otherworldly late sonatas and quartets, or brainy Bach anthologies like "The Art of Fugue" make only rare appearances. And it certainly goes for contemporary works, where we make no bones about choosing for airplay those of both high quality and potential immediate reach-out-and-grab-you appeal.
When it comes to Elliott Carter's music, or at least that following his remarkable stylistic shift in the late-1940s (read the obits in the NY Times or Washington Post for a description of his music), there is little question about its quality. The craft, the scope, the creativity, the originality, the personality, the seriousness, the playfulness, the stamp of genius — all there in great abundance. What are not there are any of the normal signposts that allow a listener to understand where he or she is upon first entering Carter's dense and confusing aural landscape. Recognizable melody? The emotionally satisfying interplay of consonance and dissonance? A sense of harmonic direction, of departure and return? Moments of rest and repose? Well, it's not as if they're not there. But they're there the way they are if one was attempting to read "Finnegans Wake" translated into Tamil. These are not works made for chance encounters on the radio, between Mozart and Chopin. One selects Carter's works for oneself, knowing full well what one is in for and what is demanded. The rewards can be many, which is why musicians will continue to explore his music for years to come. But Carter is not and likely never will be accessible enough for radio programming, at least on this station. Like other subcategories of the wide, wonderful world of classical music, Elliott Carter is going to have to be one that those with the desire to explore will have to do so on their own.
So, some recommendations, each with a link to the CD as available at ArkivMusic.com:
Symphony No. 1, Holiday Overture, Piano Concerto. Mark Wait, piano, Nashville Symphony Orchestra, Kenneth Schermerhorn, conductor. Two splendid works from Carter's early neo-classical period, along with one of his densest from the 1960s.
The Complete Piano Music. Ursula Oppens, piano. Along with several short works from Carter's last decades, this superb album features the 1946 Piano Sonata, a brilliant transitional work of gripping power, and the 1980 "Night Fantasies," one of his best-known and oft-recorded later works.
String Quartets Nos. 1 & 5. Pacifica Quartet. The Quartet No. 1 of 1951 is the work in which Carter found his unique voice — a worthy successor the the Second Quartet of Charles Ives.
Cello Concertos by Carter and Elgar. Alisa Weilerstein, cello. Staatskaplle Berlin, Daniel Barenboim, conductor. An amazing example of Carter's creativity at the end of his ninth decade, with a highly expressive account of the Elgar Concerto coming along for the ride.
RE: A great composer you rarely hear on WFCR
What a thrill to turn on my car radio for a trip back to the Berkshires over the top of the world (well, Massachusetts: on a lightly traveled Rte. 9) and hear Elliott Carter's Cello Concerto on WFCR, almost from the beginning!
And I could tell this was not the familiar (still first-class) Fred Sherry recording but a new interpretation, played to the hilt. An even greater thrill was the announcement at the end telling me that the performers were major mainstream classical artists recording for a mainstream label--and finding later that the same CD contains two standard, well-loved cello and orchestra works. Classical music lives!
I understood, of course, that daytime WFCR wouldn't be having this miniature Carter-fest if the composer's death hadn't just been big news. And I can sympathize with John Montanari's reasons why our excellent modern repertoire is rarely selected for daytime radio, although I think the difference in concentration a listener gives to Carter or Babbitt as opposed to Chopin or Mozart is a difference of degree, not of kind.
Why not find a time slot on the weekend for a program devoted to modern classical music? I'm thinking of a program I used to hear when I lived in Cincinnati ages ago hosted by Myron Bennett, a man of both knowledge and opinions who often seemed to march to a different drummer but still went a long way toward filling in the gaps. I'm sure WFCR can do it!
Thanks for the kudos! Credit
Thanks for the kudos! Credit goes to Walter Carroll, who scheduled the Cello Concerto. And heck, we might just play it again some day soon. Your desire for a weekend modern music show is one that I have also long harbored. This is just one of the many things NEPR could do if we could add a full-time classical station to the roster, one that does for classical what WNNZ does for news and information. Given the utter paucity of available radio frequencies, it's probably a pipe dream. but we keep looking and trying.
Accessibility for radio
As the jazz host at WFCR, I could apply your thoughts about the appropriateness of Carter's music for radio to any number of jazz artists, including major figures like Ornette Coleman and Cecil Taylor, much of whose music lacks the "reasonable degree of accessibility" that makes for the best use of music on the radio.
Doug Ramsey's jazz blog Rifftides noted Carter's passing this week, and elicited letters from several readers about connections between his music and jazz. One reader provides a link to an interview in which Carter says that Duke Ellington told him he heard the influence of jazz in his Symphony No. 1.
Here's an excerpt from a letter by William Osborne to which I found myself nodding in agreement:
"[Carter] turned away from populism and very consciously cultivated an ironic kind of populism among a very powerful musical elite.
Another irony is that composers like Barber, Menotti, Hanson, and Copland, whose music was more approachable, were not accepted by that elite. Their isolation among the established forces in the new music world hindered their development and output as artists – especially in their later years.
The meaning and history of populism has also radically changed in the jazz world over the last 100 years. Jazz too has evolved toward a rarefied and elitist art form that eschews populism, which is very ironic given the genre's history. This might also connect jazz to contemporary classical composers like Carter."
Yes, the style wars of
Yes, the style wars of late-20th-century classical music could get pretty rough, much like they had in jazz, rock, etc. I'm not aware that Carter, unlike Boulez and Babbitt, for instance, was much of a participant, though more knowledgeable readers may correct me. From the interviews I've read, Carter was aware of his music's difficulty though thought it had been overstated, and seemed genuinely content to write the way he did for his own and his performers' enjoyment. And whatever else one can or cannot easily hear in Carter's music, I think a degree of playfulness is readily apparent.
your comments
yes, your comments seem fairly accurate.
his Piano Concerto is quite the sound trip, but just not a good fit for m-f 9-4.
Mr. Carter on the radio
Your comments seem to make my little squib about Wagner seem all the more pertinent:
Indeed. And if we had
Indeed. And if we had extensive nighttime and locally-programmed overnight classical programming, it might be different. But in the meantime: Do you think Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 would be a good time for the Double Concerto? I'd also say that if you think that WFCR's programming is researched and focus-grouped to death, you should listen to it, research the playlists, and then make your case.

Hugo von Hofmannsthal, who wrote a modernist manifesto in Lord Chandos' Letter, knew very well why he borrowed the clothing of a medieval mystery play: in his language and our own – the language of scepticism, of irony, of mistrusting speech at all times – he would never have been able to deal with his subject: the finite nature of our life and the nothingness of our earthly possessions. And the question of God which urgently and inevitably presents itself as a result.
The Christian and specifically Catholic flavour of the work, which is responsible for a good deal of the unease it provokes need no longer be regarded today as the theatrical embodiment of an all-powerful church. We may well, however – precisely as a result of the historical distance which Hofmannsthal gave his Jedermann (Everyman) – ask ourselves just how we view our own contemporary "Good Works". What is the thinking on which we base our own ethics, our own morality? What are the beliefs which allow us to experience consolation and hope?
Perhaps Everyman is less of an attempt to remind us of belief than to emphasise its loss. Less a celebration of the supposed certainties of the church than an expression of our modern uncertainty. Less a demand for Christian humility than an expression of no confidence in our self-empowerment. Less about helping us to see the beyond and more about mourning for a heaven which is empty.
The mystery plays of the Middle Ages were performed at fairgrounds by travelling players. Their pious content served simultaneously as a pretext for robust theatre. The emblematic characters offered plenty of opportunities for colourful representations of life and the theatre's subversive and anarchistic powers can be assumed to have prevailed over the wishes of authority.
Arthur Kahane, Max Reinhardt's dramaturg, once observed that making theatre was like entrusting the holiest of holies to a whore. He was, however, at pains to emphasise that this misalliance offered enormous advantages to both parties. The playwright Hofmannsthal tackled this theme more than once, Reinhardt too. Their ambition was to combine the sensuality of performance with the spiritual task of literature. Not in order to facilitate the triumph of one or the other but to demonstrate the equal status of both operating together. Everyman is a text which illustrates this ambition perfectly. It is not for nothing that it has been able to hold audiences in Salzburg in its spell for over ninety years.
We are delighted to have found a directorial team in Julian Crouch and Brian Mertes who will accept this challenge with passion and imagination and extend the festival's great Everyman tradition.

How does one approach a work with such a long tradition as Jedermann? The two directors Julian Crouch and Brian Mertes have sought their very own path to realising the mystery play on Cathedral Square, inspired both by the past and the future. The production of their predecessor Christian Stückl was seen for eleven years on Cathedral Square. With their version, the directing duo from the USA and England want to return to the roots.

Ideally we would like to be able to meet each of you in person in order to tell you what Jedermann means to us and how we are approaching our production. However, as our rehearsals have now begun and these are demanding our full attention, we regret that this will simply not be possible. We therefore hope that this will offer you some insight into what we are doing.
by FESTSPIELKIEBITZ 16:10 h; posted in: Drama
The Austrian actor Simon Schwarz will be the new Devil on Cathedral Square when Jedermann takes the stage this summer. In the new production by Julian Crouch and Brian Mertes, Simon Schwarz will join Cornelius Obonya in the title role, Brigitte Hobmeier as the Lover and Peter Lohmeyer as Death, among others. Simon Schwarz has previously played opposite Cornelius Obonya in Kottan ermittelt – Rien ne va plus and in the film adaptation of the mystery Die Mutprobe by Lisa Lercher, among others.
by FESTSPIELKIEBITZ 15:04 h; posted in: Drama
Peter Lohmeyer performs the role of "Death" in next year's new production of Jedermann. Lohmeyer studied acting in Bochum and is familiar to audiences not only from numerous theater engagements, but also from frequent appearances on film and TV, for example in Die Straßen von Berlin and Das Wunder von Bern.

Not happy
I bought this sweater a few weeks ago and hadn't worn it yet due to the Florida winter (or lack thereof). Now that I finally tried it on, I was vastly disappointed. It looks nothing like the photo. Very boxy and both the torso and the sleeves are much shorter than in the picture. Unfortunately I had already snipped off the tags so I can't even return it. :(
December 14, 2012
Great Sweater!
I bought this in pink and I love it!! It is a bit sheer so I wear a cami underneath. I pair it with skinny jeans and knee-high boots! Very cute!
December 6, 2012
Comfy winter sweater!
This sweater is soft and the perfect compliment to dress pants, a skirt or jeans. I bought a small (my normal shirt size from Limited) and it is a bit baggy, which I personally liked. It is also see-through so a cami is necessary.
December 6, 2012
Super Soft!
I love the pink one! Just wear a cami underneath and you are all set!
November 28, 2012
Classy sweater
This sweater is a nice holiday compliment to slacks or dressy jeans! Sheerer than I thought, but pretty with a camisole underneath.
November 28, 2012
nice sweater
I liked the sweater, but it does run a little large & the sleeves only come right past elbow not further down like the picture shows. It is not what I would call 3/4" sleeve & that was very disappointing. Also, it does seem to shed a little.
November 27, 2012
love the color
Love the sweater, but it does shed. Sweater is very soft, but seems to stretch out of shape.
November 27, 2012
Great sweater!
this sweater is great and comfy. I wore it for Thanskgiving and keep wearing it whenever I go out. Super cute-and the pale pink is pretty.

To recognize their hard work and innovation, the survey's top digital counties will be honored at a national awards ceremony which will coincide with NACo's national conference in Chicago, Illinois next month.
In April, all counties in the United States were invited to participate in the 2006 Digital Counties Survey. County officials responded to questions that included more than 100 measurements and data points about online service delivery, infrastructure, architecture and governance models. "In today's world, technology is essential for effective and efficient government," said NACo Executive Director Larry E. Naake. "County governments realize this and are using technology in new ways to improve the delivery of services to Americans. The Digital Counties Survey illustrates the innovation being pursued by counties across the country." Center Executive Director, Cathilea Robinett adds, "Counties continue to strive for excellence in serving their citizens. Our Digital Counties Survey showcases those counties most committed to service and innovation. Congratulations to all the winners!"

With free birthday meals often valid for up to 30 days, online databases provide resources for the thrifty diner
FORT MYERS, Fla., Oct. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Jaquelin Elliott, a 25-year-old Florida woman equipped with coupons from restaurant birthday email clubs, was recently able to dine on free and discounted food for seven days. Over the course of her birthday week, Elliott and her mom enjoyed meals and snacks from more than a dozen locations, including Panera, IHOP, Sbarro, Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, and more, with Jaquelin's entrees often completely free of charge.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131016/PH98128LOGO)
Jaquelin's starting points for seeking out the best restaurant deals and discounts were the e-club websites FavoriteCandle, Freebie Depot, and Hey It's Free. Each has online databases that allow users to search for birthday deals and other discounts in their area.
Her advice for other prudent diners celebrating a birthday? "Start registering for e-clubs well in advance of your birthday," says the young Floridian. "Sign up at least seven days before your birthday and during the calendar month before it occurs. Set up a separate e-mail account just for coupons since the e-clubs will be sending you great stuff all year."
The total amount of free food that Jaquelin received was an impressive $101.93, including a free venti Mocha Frappuccino from Starbucks, free breakfasts at IHOP and Perkins, a free large pizza from Grimaldi's Pizzeria, and a dozen more freebies. The crowning deal of the week however was a birthday dinner at Blue Pointe Oyster Bar and Seafood Grill, where both Jaquelin's filet mignon and dessert were on the house.
"Neither Mom or I get to eat out at restaurants often because of the cost," says Jaquelin. "It was wonderful to get to do something really special for my 25th birthday. I'd heard about birthday deals here and there, but I had no idea just how many restaurants offer discounts and free menu items. Not just desserts or appetizers, either, but whole entrees. It's mind-boggling. Almost all birthday e-coupons I received were valid for seven to 30 days - meaning you can get free meals and snacks the entire month of your birthday!"
The e-club options can be overwhelming. Most of the major chains like Chili's, Applebee's, Ruby Tuesday, TGI Fridays, and Brios, in addition to thousands of smaller restaurants, offer birthday freebies and other great deals. It can be difficult for diners celebrating a birthday to even know where to find online registration forms making sites such as FavoriteCandle.com, the largest database of free and discounted birthday meals, an invaluable tool for diners to explore their options and get the most out of restaurant promotionals aimed at birthday celebrators.
Not interested in actually signing up for coupons? Not a problem. FavoriteCandle and Freebie Depot also list locations where birthday treats can be redeemed just by showing an ID. A quick browse session is often enough for birthday diners to find great places to snag free birthday meals, desserts and drinks on short notice.

In today's Talk Takeaway, Tim Ferriss showed us how to make his simple take on Osso Buco called Osso "Buko" and Union Square Zucchini from his new book, "The 4-Hour Chef." Here are the recipes from today's show.
Osso "Buko"
Serves 4
4 (12oz/ 340g each) Lamb Shanks
I bunch of carrots
1 can (15oz/ 425g) canned whole San Marzano tomatoes
3-finger pinch of Garlic powder or 4 garlic cloves pushed through a garlic press
2 tablespoon of Extra virgin olive oil
About 1/3 a bottle of White wine
To taste, add salt and pepper
Union Square Zucchini
Serves 4
4 small (6oz/180g) Zucchini, no wider than the star peeler blade (1 per person, and buy 1 extra)
1 tablespoon of Extra virgin olive oil or macadamia nut oil
1 clove of Garlic, peeled but left whole
2-finger pinches of Chile flakes (or red pepper flakes)
1 teaspoon of Ghee
½ lemon of Lemon juice
To taste, add salt and pepper
That peeler? It's not just a peeler, padawan – it's an all-purpose slicing machine. Most don't exploit its full potential and use it only in the standard position. We are going to move the zucchini instead of the slicer. Viola, a make-shift mandolin!
Brush the zucchini downward on top of the peeling blade, holding the end that hasn't been cut. (Don't worry about the last nub – it's not worth risking losing your fingertips.)
Do this for each zucchini you'll be using.
2. Pat down the zucchini slices with a paper towel for 1–2 minutes to remove as much water as possible, but don't stress over every drop.

It's been a while since my last post so let me get you all updated about what's been going on with Catamount softball.
My first season here at Western Carolina has absolutely flown by. I feel like I was just moving into my dorm a few months ago, and I cannot believe we already celebrated senior day. It's crazy to think that I will be there in three short years, and it makes me cherish the time that I still have here doing what I love.
We play our final series this weekend at College of Charleston. They are currently ranked second in conference, so they are not going to be an easy team to beat. But we have been working extremely hard the last couple of weeks to finish this season strong and we intend to.
Until next time...GO CATS!
Thanks and God Bless,
Taylor Sigmon #15

Have had no problems with the screen protector since I put it on two weeks ago. Could not get every single bubble out, but not a problem. I have the ipad mini in a case that would keep it from peeling on the sides. This works well inside the house, but at the library where there are lots of lights there was kind of a glare. Near a sunny window will have lots of glare too.. I didn't get the anti glare protector because someone said it was fuzzy, but it would probably keep the glare out.
This is also a great product. The screen cover fits my Ipad perfectly. It protects against scratches and damages as promised. All three arrived in great time. I would suggest this product to everyone.
Fits perfect, don't forget to clean your iPad first, I messed up on the first one and had to throw it, than cleaned it again and reapplied another sheet, thank God there are three in there.it was my mistake though.but worked well in the end, no bubbles.
does not stay on ipad......too many bubbles....will never order again.
The protector does not stick well on the surface of the Ipad. Also it is a little bigger than the screen. I would not recommend this to anyone. Save your coins!
Screensaver is good value. I wish they had a fingerprint proof version.
Hard to apply. Lasted about a week. Not worth the money.

thats funny.. the insert video button is here, but not in the original posting control panel.. lol
I've started uploading some of my pics, and well, i see size minimum limitations, but i've encountered it more than twice, when trying to upload more than one pic it'll take a little while, then chime in with file size to large.. i DO have some large resolution images, but i don't know what the max is, that would be helpful to know, i haven't been able to repeat it with just "one" image upload, but man.. that is annoying if i have to upload all my pics one at a time..
other than that, awesome freakin new website.. I LOVE IT.. =D lol

Rob, for pictures, I use Microsoft picture manager and resize my pictures to 600X800 pixels before downloading.
Seems this is an acceptable size for this type forum.

Title (Max 100 Characters)
CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - The Cincinnati Parks and dog trainer Lisa Desatnik of So Much PETential! (http://www.SoMuchPETential.com) are partnering to offer a fun and educational program for kids (ages 6 to 8) teaching them about how to be a good friend to their new puppy, or their current 4-legged family member. At the two-hour 'Me and My Best Friend' event, children will learn the do's and don'ts of playing safe and caring for their dog; as well as important bite prevention information, such as learning about how dogs communicate when they are happy, or when they want to be left them alone, and how to approach other people's dogs. Special crafts and games will add to the fun. Kids will leave with "doggie bags", filled with pet friendly recipes, activity ideas, and useful resources.
Cost for the program is only $5.00 per child. It is limited to 20 children, accompanied by one parent. Ben, the demonstration dog, will be there to meet and greet the children. To register, please call 513-321-6070! Visa and Mastercard accepted.

Township Pulls Out Of CB PD Effort
New Britain Township has pulled out of an effort to form a Central Bucks Regional Police Department.
It was one of five municipalities working on the plan, but New Britain Township sent the other four a letter saying the cost of building a new police headquarters would be too much, even though a state report says it would save nearly $150,000 a year on operating costs.
Doylestown and New Britain Boroughs and Doylestown and Plumstead Townships are moving forward with merger discussions. Chalfont Borough and Warwick Township took part in the talks for a while, but they pulled out earlier.

I have LRB already but I keep pushing those that like RB to get it just for the export (it's a glorified $30 ($20 + $10 export, 45-song track pack).
I noticed today that LRB is up on Xbox Live's Games on Demand for $20. My question which the xbox information doesn't fill in is that does this version give you an exportability? As you would not get a manual that, like with the original LRB, would contain the code to work the export, I wonder if you can't export from this version.

I have a product I'm developing on my own, with no other investors or partners. Via another project I'm developing, I have an IP Waiver and NDA that I can use for the project, I'm using my personal computer and resources to build the application.
The product is a web-based application for a particular market, which can be very niche, or grown, as I have the time and resources available to build it. That is, the fundamental components of the application are NOT niche, but the way it's presented IS niche. When I have time/resources to add additional presentation methods, the niche market can grow.
My question is this: I have a very small budget to spend money on for the project - $1000. I have the personal technical expertise to develop the architecture of this application, but I am not a web designer or a graphic designer. I have one user of the application already lined up, with a potential second. I have three companies who's clients would want to use this application who have agreed to do some beta testing for me, free of charge, prior to the public launch, and, if they like what I've done, to promote it to their clients. Both beta testers are technical in nature, and will be somewhat forgiving of a simple UI in the first version.
What would you say would be the best use of my money? I already have the domain for the site registered, and have earmarked $75 for hosting for one year (yes, I priced it out, and the only reason I would have to increase that would be if I had enough revenue to justify the increase).
So, $925 to spend to design/build/test/launch/market/support the application. What do I spend the money on?

Turns out the late Eric Knodel goal that earned a 4-4 tie for No. 4-ranked New Hampshire against Maine on Saturday at the Whittemore Center, was not enough to salvage a tough weekend for the Wildcats.
When all the results were in on Saturday night, UNH had slipped to fifth place in Hockey East and must go on the road to face No. 4 Providence College in the quarterfinal round next weekend.
The Wildcats went into the weekend series at home against their bitter rival hoping to win the Hockey East regular season championship and needing two points to guarantee themselves a home series in the playoffs.
They came up with only one of the four available points, losing 4-3 on Friday night and then failing to close out Saturday's game for a win.
"That's the disappointing part of the weekend," said UNH coach Dick Umile. "We had the opportunity to secure home ice and we didn't do that."
UNH played a 4 p.m. game on Saturday and the other league games were at 7 p.m. The Wildcats had to await the results of key games before they knew their playoff fate.
There were several scenarios that set UNH up for a home series next weekend.
But UMass-Lowell knocked off Providence, 4-1, to earn its first Hockey East regular season championship and Boston University beat Northeastern, 5-0, and those results left UNH, BU and Providence in a three-way tie for third place.
Based on head-to-head tiebreakers, BU was awarded the No. 3 seed, Providence No. 4 and UNH the No. 5.
UNH and Providence will play a best-of-three series starting on Friday night with the winner advancing to the Hockey East championship round at the TD Garden in Boston. The Friars won the season series against UNH with 6-5 and 1-0 wins and a 3-3 tie.
The Wildcats will hit the road for the quarterfinals for the second straight year. Last year, they fell in three games at Boston University. UNH had finished in the top four and earned a home series for 16 consecutive years before that.
The other Hockey East quarterfinals have No. 8 Maine at No. 1 UMass-Lowell, No. 7 Vermont at No. 2 Boston College and No. 6 Merrimack at BU.
"We just want to keep playing," said Maine coach Tim Whitehead. "We think at this point we can play with anybody. We know we can play with anybody."
UNH had not lost a game all season in which it led going into the third period.
UNH was up 3-2 entering the third on Saturday but needed the Knodel goal to get a tie.
"Obviously, we're not too excited," Umile said. "We had the opportunity to win it and gave it up in the third period. We're not too pleased with that."
The Wildcats finished the regular season with an overall record of 18-9-7 and were 13-8-6 in Hockey East.
Maine wrapped up 10-18-8 and 6-13-8.
The Black Bears scored a pair of goals in a span of 74 seconds early in the third period to grab a 4-3 lead.
Senior forward Joey Diamond tied it up, 3-3, at the 5:58 mark of the period. Freshman defenseman Conor Riley made it 4-3 Maine at 7:12.
Knodel, a junior defenseman, scored on a blast from out front on the power play.
Casey DeSmith, the sophomore from Rochester, made 32 saves for UNH.
Maine junior Martin Ouellete, who played at Kimball Union Academy, had 31 saves.
The teams scored four goals in the second period, two for each team, in a span of just under four minutes to turn a 1-0 UNH lead into the 3-2 advantage with 20 minutes to play.
Twice UNH went up by two goals and twice the Black Bears cut it back to a one-goal margin.
Wildcat freshman Maxim Gaudreault made it 2-0 with 5:54 left in the period. Joey Diamond answered for Maine. UNH's Grayson Downing got that one back 32 seconds later for 3-1. Adam Shemansky's goal cut it to 3-2 with 1:57 left in the period.
UNH senior forward Scott Pavelski converted a pass from Gaudreault to open the scoring with 4:01 left in the first period.
It was one shining senior moment on a Senior Night that would end in disappointing fashion.

Blue and Gold Leadership Series
The Blue & Gold Leadership Program equips students with opportunities to acquire and implement leadership skills to enhance professional competence while documenting achievements that can lead to career, service, or leadership advancement. The Office of Student Leadership and Activities (OSLA) prepares students to serve in significant campus and community leadership roles, by providing leadership training. Leadership development has been identified as one of our strategic initiatives for student development. While the idea of leadership development encompasses a broad range of activities (both current and prospective), a foundational program for this initiative is the Blue and Gold Leadership Series. The leadership series targets students at varying stages of their college career.
For more information about these programs, please visit the Office of Student Leadership and Activities (260 Student Center) or send an email
Blue Leadership Program
Leadership Exploration Program (Targets 1st and 2nd year students who may self apply or be nominated by faculty, staff, and student leaders).
Over the course of eight sessions in the Spring semester, the Blue Leadership Program prepares students to serve in significant campus and community leadership roles, by providing in-depth leadership training. Interactive workshops are presented by Student Affairs administrators and faculty. Each two-hour workshop equips students with leadership knowledge and tools to succeed as leaders at Hofstra University and beyond. The class themes cover different areas of leadership, including personal development, purpose and vision, collaboration, service, ethical decision-making, marketing your leadership, and multicultural competence.
Students may self-apply for the Blue Leadership Program. Application for the 2014 Blue Leadership Cohort, available here!
Applications are due December 6th by 5pm to OSLA (SC 260).
Staff and faculty may also nominate students who they see potential in for the program. Staff/faculty nomination forms are available here.
Learn more about the program by emailing OSLA.
Gold Leadership Program
Experiential Leadership Program (Targets upperclassmen who may self apply or be nominated by faculty or staff. Resume and letter of recommendation required)
Participants in the Gold Leadership Program will be accepted at the end of the Spring semester, for a year-long experience that commences at the start of the following Fall. Throughout the academic year, participants will belong to an intimate cohort of student leaders that will dialogue bi-weekly about leadership. Through reflection, experiential learning, and mentoring, graduates of the Gold Leadership Program will be able to define leadership, pinpoint the kind of leader they are, and articulate how they intend to lead ethically, competently, confidently, and openly in the global world after college. Each participant will be paired with a staff or faculty mentor for the duration of the program. The participants in their Spring semester will also be charged with mentoring the Blue participants and planning the Spring Midnight Run which will take place in May. The experience will culminate with Gold presentations that showcase each cohort member's experience and growth throughout the program.
Gold Leadership Applications for the '14-15 cohort are will be available in April 2014.

Processo Alla Tappa
Here's everything you need to know about the Giro d'Italia, in three easy minutes.
In truth it's a tribute to Sergio Zavoli, a truly great journalist and broadcaster from the 1960s. Aided and abetted by the likes of Gimondi and Motta, he was instrumental in the rinascimento of the sport here in the mid-Sixties.
Zavoli revolutionized the way the sport of cycling was televised. He spoke with the gregari and to their wives, to the mechanics and the old lags on the roadside. He asked them about their (usually meager) contracts, about their insecurities, hopes and dreams. He plonked himself on a motorbike and asked them questions as they rode. That was groundbreaking, and brilliant. But his true genius lay elsewhere. Zavoli's great virtue lay not in what he said, but in what they said to him. It was through Zavoli that cyclists, increasingly portrayed in the televisual age as tongue-tied, half-bred yokels, started to find their voice. To find their dignity…
Here's Zavoli, then, doing his thing at the 1966 Giro d'Italia. It's the penultimate stage to Vittorio Veneto, and he finds a kid riding his first Giro…
Zavoli: 'Is it emotional?'
Cyclist: 'A bit, yes'
Zavoli: 'How old are you?'
Cyclist: '25'
Zavoli: 'What do you do in your life?'
Cyclist: 'I was a bricklayer before.'
Zavoli: 'What do you think you'll earn by the end of this Giro?'
Cyclist: 'The most I can. I hope to finish the Giro and then we'll see'
Zavoli: 'Do you hope to make a living from riding your bike?'
Cyclist: 'I hope so at least'
Zavoli: 'Does it perhaps offer more security, though, the life of a bricklayer?'
Cyclist: 'No question it's more secure.'
Zavoli: 'Why are you riding a bike then?'
Cyclist: 'It's passion'
Zavoli: 'I wish you all the best… He goes off to retake his place at the back of the peloton, and best wishes to this number 59 at his first Giro d'Italia…'
The kid, it transpires, is one Lucillo Lievore, from nearby Breganze. Lievore catches up with him again later in the stage. It's raining, and he's riding alone. It's one of the most beautiful, sagacious things I think I've ever seen at a bike race. Lievore, you see, is Gino Bartali. He's Fausto Coppi and Ercole Baldini, Learco Guerra and Alfredo Binda.
He is Lucillo Lievore, a half-bred bricklayer from the Veneto, northern Italy's poorest region. And yet through Zavoli he too becomes a genius. He perfectly distils, in fourty memorable seconds, the racing cyclist's condition. Here's what it is…
Zavoli: 'A great satisfaction, eh, Lievore?'
Lievore: 'They're catching me'
Zavoli: 'No… You've still got fifteen minutes on the bunch'
Lievore: 'I don't believe you.'
Zavoli: 'I'm not lying, I guarantee you you've still got fifteen minutes on them'
Man on road: 'Come on Lievore, give it everything! You're riding the Giro d'Italia! Go hard Lievore! Give it everything! Go on Lievore!'
Zavoli: 'Do they give you more courage, these shouts from the fans?'
Lievore: 'Oh for sure.'
Zavoli: 'Listen Lievore, do you have a girlfriend?'
Lievore: 'No.'
Zavoli: 'Who do you dedicate this beautiful ride to?'
Lievore: 'To my parents and my team.'
Zavoli: 'Listen Lievore, do you feel better up ahead, or in the middle of the peloton?'
Lievore: 'In the middle of the group, no question.'
Zavoli: 'Well why have you escaped then?'
Lievore: 'It's like it is.'
'No, I can't talk anymore. You'll have to leave me alone. If not I'll start crying. They're going to catch me.'
Zavoli: 'They're not catching you! You've still got seven minutes. Courage…'
Lievore: 'Yeah but… there's a climb now.'
Zavoli: 'The climb's finished Lievore. Look, you've made the final sacrifice…'
Pietro Scandelli won the stage - by fifteen minutes.
Lucille Lievore was racing for second place. It's like it is.

Holy fucking shit, half of the new album is ridiculously good. If you're not into Mariqueens voice, no worries, its totally buried, glitched and blurred in the newest stuff. Check these tracks out:
The Wake Up
And the Sky Began to Srceam
Welcome Oblivion
On the Wing (This one was on the last EP too)
Yes, I know how silly it sounds coming from a sn like |\| | |/|, but I'm telling you, they're going to melt minds. If they're playing at the same time as Four Tet I think I'll have a mental break down!
Front half was painful for me. Second half was pretty ace stuff that should be very good live.
Rob Sheridan.
"Sheridan attended art school at New York's Pratt Institute for one year before being hired at age 19 by Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor in 1999, on the merits of a Nine Inch Nails fansite he created during high school. He was initially hired to maintain the newly-launched official Nine Inch Nails website. Since then he has taken over as art director for the band, contributing photography, web design, album covers, music videos, live tour visuals, and two live concert films."
Please check out my blog Sleeping is Giving In for some great mixes and other good things!
No it's like Trent's version of Puscifer. May May has said Puscifer is what Tapeworm woulda/coulda been, pretty big bummer that all fell through. T-Rez co-wrote the Puscifer track "Potions."
From NIN-wiki:
On twitter, he went on to practically confirm that this track was an unused Tapeworm track.
[sic]2 conclude if i may. If u HATE Potions, hate US not Trent. We wrote it together, but PUSCIFER produced it. It was my wedding present 2 him.
the first HTDA stuff i heard was very APC ish. bringing back that whole alternative-dark-goth-chic thing. didnt immeadiately turn me on at all, but i do see what you mean about the puscifer analogy. but hey, we get maynard in some capacity. getting trent without hit vocals doesnt really count i dont think.
He sings every now and then

Rambler returns to the Royal. Posted by joe treacy
As you say Joe, some season for the camera and all of it very welcome on the forum. Great also to see how the Royal could be traversed with "reletievly" little difficulty in high-water conditions. Must take a stroll up to Confey some evening soon to see how the new "best buddies" are. Need to check up also on how that new wheel house is coming along. Talk soon R Rgds Richard and Mags (Reflection)
Just a short return to share something. The "wrap" was short and sweet and I do know that Vossie was taking pics on Sunday [ he was busy yesterday and hopefully successful ] but the gap from Ferns to Pike could be filled with your wonderful shots, so how about it AJ ? The little clip below is proof that Ben learned something from the film crew during the project and starts in the engine room on decompression lever duty and a scramble through the hatch to film the 'performance'! In defence it was a cold morning on Sunday and John - there is a happy ending ! ! [s1182.photobucket.com] Joe.
The ramber has finshed a year of Rambling along ,, I like to thank Des the lock keeper for his unsung work he does with levels and boat owners. I am not lieing when started with the Rambler at 0800 and finshed at 2300 on the first day of the TV Doc and treated the Rambler as if it was his own boat. Thanks Des Just want to thank the Royal Canal Aminty groups for the years of hard work and those that could not see the Rambler as it traveled the Banks Of the Royal Canal. Their dream was to save a canal but really they were architects of the Waterways Ireland Program on TV as the program would never been made as the cost to restore the Royal canal today would out way the use of it and i belive it would befilled in or built on. They worked to Restore and carry out conservation work with the OPW for years when really there was no money or grants just a dream for the canal too have your boat to travel and enjoy something which you will travel the waterways which can only be seen to belive. Thank you i just hope the Rambler is a Marker for your hard work that you got a barge 55 ton 68 feet down the Royal Canal you Cleaned and rebuilt. Thank you. On the retun trip people waited at locks and bridges to take photos of the Rambler Not people with in the boat but its about Time that a barge of her age can pull crowdes and be talked about on facebook as she is seen on the Canal. Thanks to all who worked on her in the Basin in Grand canal and all who helped us from spring till now. Thanks to you every one got some bit of enjoyment this year reading or talking about will it or wont it. Evan
Well said Evan and it has to be said that us 'anoraks' have had a season to remember. Yes Mick a lot of smoke but it is part of the atmosphere ! The clip below is our cure for a smokey engine [ Portumna last Winter ! ]. Does this one do things for you Duncan ? Joe. [www.facebook.com]
Hi All... I am sort of at a loose end... Evan and Joe have ended the thread in their inimitable way... yet, I have a few photo's that may add something to the whole experience. I will, of course, do a blog post in a week or two... life has just got a way a bit, so... time has been rather tight. For starters, I'll place a few snaps of the first stretch on Sunday's final push... The Royal Lady starts up with a puff and a huff... many an errant teen would be happy with a ring of that magnitude... The skipper soon gets the show on the road... well, moving along the well watered slither... I would think there may well be a few folk that think this is a composite photo... after-all, winter boating seems to be an utter NO-NO... ice... I hear a few whisper... I'm of the opinion that Lock 15 will soon be 'officially' renamed as Clinton's... thanks again for your help... and the good banter...
The weather was a tad less than summer bliss... hence the spots on the lens and windows at times... I love this view... a few of the good old 'gals' soon to have a brush by again... sailors in the night? Stories are sure to spread... open gate... let's get greeting! The white bird leads us in... yep folk, this is Lock 14... repaired, ready and welcoming. Well done to the WI lads... ( I have to take a quick break... domestics call... )
Hi Joe Yes, but in a different way. You were a bit gung ho, running it for so long with no cooling circuit, but I know exactly how it feels! I kept my XLD416, replacement engine for the Seamaster, from seizing by doing exactly that, several times over the course of a year, when I had no choice but to store it in the open. Probably seized now, though, after 10 years negelect in the boat. I must say, given the (ahem) mounting and the size of the steel echo chamber, not to mention the lack of an exhaust, yours sounds lovely! Is it as nice, now it's installed? More, please... Duncan
That's not smoky! That's normal, for a vintage six, running cold on two cylinders! Most of the Huff and Puff is lightly warmed, vaporised, but unburned fuel being ejected from cold, perhaps still decompressed cylinders. You can see and hear when the other pots start contributing and the black turns to blue-grey. Soon after, the metals expand, tolerances are closed and she runs clean as a whistle! Beautiful, historic engineering, from the days when people controlled the factories and every engine was a source of pride for its' creator and its' operator! I love the ingenuity that went in to these old machines. The way men (and women) solved problems and made things work, with no computer aided design, or virtual models, to guide them is fascinating! No two engines were ever truly identical, with each having what I call a personality, basically due to minute differences in machining, fuelling, or humour of the builder. Each one has it's own specific knack to getting the best out of it, becoming second nature to the usual operator, but alien to a new "driver". It seems like a reciprocal relationship, with the engine "rewarding" good treatment and punishing ineptitude. Is it any wonder people for emotional attachments to them? Duncan
You asked for it Duncan !!! This clip is after installation but still needing a little ignition wiring . Enjoy Joe. [www.facebook.com]
Excellent! Am I dreaming, or is that a bendix type starter? I don't think I've ever heard a pre-engaged make that whiiiinnnng, when it didn't quite engage properly! Definite memories of cold mornings and Morris 1100's, Minors, Oxfords, Ford Anglias and such like, when manual chokes (remember them?) had been pulled too far, or not far enough. But then again, I thought the 4.236 was pre-engaged only! Apart from the starter itself, the difference is in the teeth on the ring gear. They have a chamfered edge to help guide the pinion into mesh and this will be only on the side the pinion is expected to come from. Engine side, with pre-engaged, or gearbox side with a Bendix! Anyhow, better move this conversation to a thread about engines, or they'll be gunning for us! Duncan
Nope! Just looked at the original clip again and it's not a Bendix! A first for me, then. How did he do that? The usual cause is a kick from one cylinder momentarily making the flywheel turn fast enough to drive the pinion back out of mesh, leaving the starter spinning with the pinion not engaged. That can't, or shouldn't, happen with pre-engaged types, though. With these the solenoid pushes the pinion into mesh and the heavy contacts don't close until close to fully engeaged! When the engine starts an overrun clutch allows the pinion to spin up to whatever speed the engine dictates, without spinning the armature up to destructive speeds. This does not disengage the pinion from the ring gear, though, so how did the characteristic "whiiiinnnng" happen? Everybody already knew I'm a total anorak, right? That's ok, so! Duncan
Furthermore, looking again, hoping to identify the nice neat manifold, I realised the rocker cover is not quite like a Perkins either and certainly not a 4.236! Not Ford, nor Peugeot, or Volvo. It looks old, though, so not any of the raft of Eastern engines! Better concede defeat! What is it, Joe? Duncan Duncan
Stepping back a couple of posts, your mention of thread drift couldn't be further from the intention of this particular thread. 'Rambler Returns' was certainly NOT meant to be another pretty picture trip along the Royal but rather a vehicle for discussion of the mechanics of a trip like this. There was a reasonable input from folk early on regarding bridge heights etc. but in general engagement has been poor. 'Waterways' painted a certain picture [ for TV ] and did this well but as an example the scene regarding being stuck under the bridge at Ferns, was not seen as what actually occurred. Water level on the stretch was too high and when lowered - HEY PRESTO !!! John Connon and myself discussed the issue of reporting the return trip and he was determined to show that it could be completed easily and that there had not been special treatment on the 'Waterways' journey. Evan Connon in his postings is passionate about the history and infrastructure of the Royal. Again and again he talks about the restorers and the ordinary people along the route who are witnessing a re-birth of this wonderful system. The 'Rustin video' and comments will be of interest to John as he had commented on the engine when viewing 'Waterways' and is pondering some work on her. So back to your question !! Four years ago I bought for spares a BMC Commodore [ 3.4L] which had been initially installed , brand new, in 'Golden Hours' in 1961. The 3.4 in 4E was tired [ and very smokey ! ] so liners / pistons / rings / valves etc. were sourced and the Commodore re-built last Winter. The starter was re-furbed [ Lucas bendix ] but the original flywheel had to stay as drive plate was attached. My suspicion of the 'miss' is a ring gear prob, even though it looked ok, without a worn section. The Commodore had direct cooling so the kit I bought from Norris Marine of heat exchanger and oil coolers were transferred from the original 3.4. BTW your prognosis on the Rustin starting cold and tightening up when warmed was spot on , she runs beautifully and has put in some long hot days this season. Keep the well experienced input coming Duncan, it is appreciated, Joe.
I promised about a year ago that I'll return with a few more photo'e... so, here goes... The skipper takes us through Maynooth... A bit of winter colour... west of Pike Bridge Who's this fellow following us? Has he a passion? For what? I wonder... The final stretch... into Confey... into the winter sunset... I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Rambler and her merry minders... you allowed us an experience of a lifetime! ;-) I've eventually managed to get a few posts done on the blog... do feel free to read my version. Have a Merry Christmas and may all your boating dreams come true... Cheers, Vossie aka AJ [ouchmybackhurts.wordpress.com]

Read more about me...Having been raised in Europe and the Middle East, Dr. Gabriel settled in western U.S. where he began his higher education. He graduated from the University of Utah with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with Honors in 1996. He went on to obtain his M.D. from the University Of Nevada School Of Medicine in 2001. For the past decade, his special interest in research in the areas of wound healing has led him to pursue several research fellowships at renowned academic institutions, including Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland and the University Of Nevada Medical School in Las Vegas.
Dr. Gabriel's medical school experience was enriched with several leadership activities, including being class president, organizing fundraisers, serving on several committees and creating a student run homeless clinic which to date is still going strong, serving the indigent population of Reno and Sparks. Dr. Gabriel was recognized by being one of the few medical students in the country to receive the prestigious Humanism in Medicine Award.
