Welcome to the website of Phoenix Knights FC.Newly established in 2006, Phoenix Knights FC is the end product of two long years of discussion. A Monday night six-a-side team mainly (though not entirely) based in the Rawcliffe and Clifton areas of York, the Knights have united many players who have played together at various local clubs on Saturdays and Sundays.The club plays in the Premiership of the new Football Mundial League at York College having previously done the 'double' of League and Cup in the York Corporate League based at Lowfield School.Matches are 15 minutes each way, with rolling substitutes and so a small but talented & dedicated squad is needed. At Phoenix, we believe we have the makings of this and are hopeful of another successful season.

A Bryan City Councilman's son is behind bars accused in a hit and run accident.
Joe Marin III was arrested this afternoon. His bond is set at $70,000. Marin is charged with evading arrest, driving with a suspended license, and causing an accident.
Police believe Marin fled the scene after hitting two parked cars and a tree at a Bryan house July 23.
There is another warrant out for Marin's brother, Ruben, who is accused of making a false report. He has not been arrested.

"We just found one of our Kingsnakes doing something really cool."
It was 2006 and we had recently started radio-tracking about a dozen Kingsnakes (Lampropeltis getula) in a big chunk of longleaf pine forest in southwestern Georgia.

Sex is not much fun for female chickens. Even though they are likely to have many partners, female chickens have little choice over with whom they mate. On top of this, male chickens are anything but picky and will copulate with whoever comes their way, including their sisters. But female chickens can still have the last squawk—instead of choosing a partner, they select the sperm that fertilises their eggs. It's easy to understand why being promiscuous is advantageous for males: the more fem........ Read more »

You might never spot them if not for the jumping. On the coast of Guam, Pacific leaping blennies blend in perfectly with the rocks they live on, their limbless bodies maintaining a sleek profile. But the creatures give themselves away when they coil their tails to one side and shoot like a spring from rock to rock. These unsettling animals are fish that live on land.

If turtles had realtors, their motto would also be "Location, location, location!"—but not because they care about a scenic vista. The spot a mother turtle chooses to dig her nest determines whether her young will be males or females. This might even be the most important factor in her decision.A female painted turtle (Chrysemys picta) is not an over-involved parent. She digs a hole in the dirt, lays a batch of eggs there, and buries them. Then she returns to her freshwater life without giving........ Read more »

Mid-Month Madness
Click here to see our club activity schedule, and the next Mid-Month Madness activity.
Mid-Month Madness is a great way to increase your learning and technical skills in a hands on fashion.
Some past activities we've held include an antenna building party, kit building, and shack tours. These are well attended events that offer amateur radio operators exciting ways to learn more about ham radio.
At the antenna building party people had the opportunity to build a wire antenna from scratch. Hams built antennas for 80 meters, 40 meters and 40/20 meters. Everyone had a great time, learned to build and tune an antenna, and learned best practice construction techniques.
At a recent kit building session, hams with all experience levels, were able to successfully build a crystal testing RF oscillator. Some people who attended the event had zero experience with kit building and soldering. Our youngest builder was only ten years old.
Our next kit building session offered construction of a sound card interface to enable digital modes like PSK31 or a frequency counter with a digital readout. For some of the advanced builders we offered surface mount (SMT) construction techniques.
We've also held shack tours of the ham radio shacks of various club members. They are an excellent way to get ideas that you can incorporate into your personal shack.
Recently Mack McCormick, W4AX, opened his shack to club members. The morning began with a breakfast and then a tour and demonstration of Mack's shack. Mack operates on all bands 160M to 23cm on all modes including CW, SSB, AM, FM, DStar, and all digital modes. Everything in Mack's shack is computer controlled and automated. Over 50 hams attended the event.

This is a love or hate show, but if you're part of the love camp you'll find yourself quoting it pretty often.
abysmalminton recommended this 2 years, 1 month ago
One of my favorites - hilarious in a very uniquely dry way
vtpg recommended this 3 years ago
Unique style. Absolutely the best job of capturing the soul of awkward social/family moments and dynamics.Cons: Everyone I know had a pretty immediate "love" or "dislike" reaction to the show. If it doesn't grab you, it's probably not worth watching.

Glee's recent episode dedicated to Lady Gaga can go suck it now that Larry King has announced, via his Twitter account, that Lady Gaga will be on his show next week. Fearing that this was a false alarm and he may have finally succumbed to the ravages of senility and was simply tweeting random words, I waited for a confirmation on this from Lady Gaga, but all she said was this, via her Twitter account: "in a Pub in England, ruining bar napkins with
lyrics and memories. Dreams are never weak like we are, drunk or sober." Maybe she'll make suspenders out of bar napkins, dreams, and bubbles for her Larry King appearance?
If and when Lady Gaga does appear on Larry King, it will set a record as the widest gap in birth years between two people on one TV show; Larry King was born in 1657, while, as we all know, Lady Gaga will be born in 2406 and comes to us in the present time via her time machine.

A Bit of Difference is, for me, just as its title articulates – a study of the subtle but vital differences between people, cultures, circumstances and even moments in time. One small shift changes everything. And while the details may be dissimilar, the consequences of these kinds of change are universally the same. (Reviewed by Tamara Smith). Full Review (1125 words).

It's like spelunking, with a light on your hat. … You're descending into dark and unknown territory and you can never see very far ahead.
–Me, quoted on Salon.com, December 16th, 1996
I love this image of descent into a dark and unknown (and slippery) place. It helps me immensely at the moment to see this rich metaphor, because I've been feeling my way more than ever before with this new novel. I've come to a few very hard walls. The light on the hat is essential, though, and I guess there's no other way than to trust in what it lights up.
the deep dark
Especially true in memoir writing, Tobias! Sometimes writers try to avoid capturing personal memories that delve into the deepest, dark within. Eventually those hidden crevices are revealed and then, what a relief!
I think of it as peeling my personal onion. Each layer, however thin, intersects with another and yet another. The members of my workshops, senior citizens all, become excited when they discover memories they thought were hidden forever. And can put them down on paper!
ps I visited that town of Concrete many years ago...wow!
A good metaphor. Writing can certainly be compared to tunneling. But a writer - one as accomplished as Tobias Wolff - generally is wise enough to bring the proper tools along with him. Flashlight, ropes, first aid kit, etc.
This Boy's Life is a marvelous book. One I'm curious of, because I grew up in a similar environment - a fire breathing dragon of a father - but one I find little interest in writing about. Perhaps it's purely a matter of genre, that I am incapable of writing of family drama. (Could Joyce write Gone with the Wind?) Or perhaps a fear of what might emerge at some turn in the tunnel? Who can say?
Eugene O'Neill's masterpiece, A Long Day's Journey into Night, is another story I have no interest in emulating, as much as I would love to. Perhaps my family just wasn't that interesting.
We all have our own tunnels. And flashlights. Perhaps I'll just have to write about someone else's family...
Reminds me of the title of Adrienne Rich's book of poetry, Diving into the Wreck.
We all have to take that leap, somehow, somewhere.
Yes, and sometimes you know what's down there will hurt you...
...but you're committed; so you still have to make the trip down before you can come up again.
I fear ...
I fear I may be in need of a new lightbulb!

Going Public Can Play a Role in the Outcome of Negotiations |
Four important points about how parties can publicly expose the issues and help control the ultimate course of the negotiation outcome. |
Seldom does a day go by that I don't read in a newspaper about a high-profile negotiation. Perhaps it is a union picketing when talks break down, or a board of directors attempting to ward off an unwanted merger. It might even entail the possible settlement of a lawsuit between prominent companies.
When I read about these, I often think about why the negotiation has "gone public."
My first thought always is to assess who initiated the public coverage of the negotiation. Did a party issue a press release or invite the media to cover the negotiation? Or is the media covering it in spite of the wishes of the parties, who would rather negotiate behind closed doors?
If one of the parties "went public," then it's probable that party believes playing it out in public has some benefits. (Of course, the public element merely may be just feeding that party's ego.)
If it's strategic, though, what could be the advantages and disadvantages of "going public?"
Think about the following in deciding if and when to "go public" in your negotiations.
1. The decision-maker might be influenced.
In high-profile legal negotiations, particularly those involving alleged criminal acts, the party "going public" may be trying to influence potential jurors -- the ultimate decision-makers if the case goes to trial.
And in some mergers and acquisitions, the ultimate decision-maker could be the public company's shareholders. One useful way to influence their behaviour is through the media.
2. The public may view one party as more "fair."
Many companies and individuals place a considerable value on their reputation and how the public and their colleagues perceive them. Winning the public relations battle in a negotiation thus can have an extensive impact on their ability to achieve success not only in the negotiation, but also in other contexts where their reputation matters.
For instance, the National Hockey League's collective bargaining agreement expires Sept. 15. Both the NHL and the players' union already are at work attempting to influence the public's -- especially hockey fans' -- perception of the fairness of their positions.
Why? Both sides' success depends in part on their ability to please the public's interests. If a player has considerable skills, a good reputation and can put fans in the seats, he has more value to a team. If the team or the league turns off its fan base by appearing to take a greedy stand in the negotiation, it may "win" the negotiation but lose its fans.
Negotiation with governmental entities -- such as cities -- also entails this element. After all, elected officials constantly agonize about how the public perceives them. Evaluate this when you see police and other public employee unions going public.
This element, of course, is the ultimate in peer pressure.
3. It may enhance their leverage.
Parties may also go public to try and maximize their leverage. How? By suggesting publicly that their alternative to doing the deal with the other side is perfectly acceptable.
Let's say a union leader publicly proposes that they have prepared for a strike. Simply making this statement in public may enhance the likelihood that their employer will consider a strike as a more realistic possibility.
A reasonable evaluation of the leader's statement is that he would not "go public" and put his credibility on the line if it were not so. Since leverage is premised in part on the parties' perception, the employers' changed perception of the union's willingness to strike may strengthen the union's leverage.
4. It may help to control the agenda.
Finally, parties may go public to attempt to control the agenda. They might do this by highlighting the importance of certain issues, or by increasing the stakes in the negotiation.
By publicly commenting on particular issues or publicly committing to certain positions, parties also may curb their ability to backtrack on those issues. Backtracking on issues after publicly committing to them involves lost credibility. Nobody wants to endure this.
Of course, disadvantages also exist when going public, the most prominent of which include: 1) the increased competitiveness often associated with public battles; 2) the decreased flexibility which happens once positions have been publicly taken; and 3) an inability to control how the media characterizes your position and the possible miscommunication that might thus occur.
So next time you read about a negotiation in the newspaper, think about why the parties are fighting it out in public. It just might help you keep the peace in your future negotiations.

NYPD cop arrested trying to snag a better seat during a Mets game
It wasn't just baserunners who got caught stealing at Citi Field on Wednesday.
An off-duty NYPD cop trying to move to a better seat in the middle of a Mets game Wednesday night was arrested on trespassing charges.
Citi Field security guards busted Eduardo Cornejo slipping into a closer seat at around 9:15 p.m., according to a criminal complaint. Cornejo allegedly wouldn't return to his original seat, and was arrested after refusing orders to leave the stadium.
A Queens judge released Cornejo without bail Thursday. He will return to court next month.
A lawyer for Cornejo did not return calls for comment on Thursday.

As fate would have it, Halloween got postponed for the first time ever in my recollection. It let us all be together for Halloween (except Christine who had to get to her party earlier than everyone else). Still, we had a great time getting together and getting ready for the night of trick-or-treating.

Friday, November 1st, 2013BMS 6th Grade Band Exhibition
Tuesday, October 29th, 2013Jake and Beth got to perform for the first time as members of a band tonight. BMS had an exhibition concert of the 6th grade band. They were really great and it's hard to believe that these kids have only been playing for a couple of months. I couldn't believe how many songs they could do. It looked like everyone was having a good time, too. Way to go, Jake and Beth, I'm very proud of you two!
BMS Swim Meet
Saturday, October 26th, 2013Today was the first BMS swim meet, and the first time Jake and Beth got to swim for BMS (but it was old hat for Lauren). It was pretty far away (Lebanon) but the weather was nice and the facilities had a nice big area for people when they weren't swimming, so it was very comfortable. Here are some pictures:

Saturday, October 5th, 2013Final Cross Country Meet of the Year
Wednesday, September 18th, 2013I can't believe that cross country is already over for Beth. Well, she certainly went out with a bang today. The final meet was the WMAA "Medal Run" and it had girls from all eight schools running (probably about 250-300 girls from what I saw). It started out hilariously, because someone's dog got loose right after the race started and it began to chase the whole pack of girls. Fortunately someone stopped it before it caught any of the girls.
Beth was beyond amazing. She came in second place overall. All of the top three girls were from Brentwood Middle School. Great job Beth! It was so much fun to watch you run. Here are some pictures of the race and of the medal ceremony:
Here she is, just one in the crowd of hundreds at the start of the race:
Here I was so excited because she is one of only two girls to have emerged from the back part of the course:
WILCO: Marching Band Exhibition
Saturday, September 14th, 2013Tonight Williamson County had its annual High School Marching Band Exhibition. Lauren got to go and participate in the final song, America: Sweet Land of Liberty, which was performed by the Williamson County Massed Band, which was basically all high school marching band members and all eighth grade band members. As far as I can tell, Lauren was one of only two kids (out of close to a thousand) who was playing the piccolo. Pretty cool, girl.

JO Montgomery smashed an unbeaten 43 from just 27 balls as North Down beat Instonians by three wickets to win Metal Technology Cup in dramatic fashion at Comber last night.
Needing 140 for victory, the host club looked to have blown their chances as a devastating bowling display from the underdogs left Peter Shields men reeling on 51 for six.
Eugene Moleon had started the ball rolling for Instonians by dismissing Ryan Haire and Neil Russell with successive deliveries and when overseas professional Iain Robertson and Taimur Khan were victims of poor shot selection off Neil Hamilton, North Down were teetering on 37 for four.
Andrew Sutherland and Peter Shields also went cheaply to an Instonians team missing a host of first choice players.
But staring defeat in the face, Montgomery, who might not have played on finals day had Ralph Coetzee been available, and Johnny Terrett brought North Down back from the brink with superb partnership of 61 for the seventh wicket.
With an unlikely 66 needed off the final seven overs, Inst were strong favourites, but gradually the momentum shifted back towards North Down.
They required a much more manageable 29 from three overs and although Terrett was well caught on the long-off boundary off Billy Dale for an excellent 33 in the 18th over, victory was always likely with Montgomery at the crease.
Crucially, Moleon left himself to bowl the last over, and by then it was almost too late as 10 came from the penultimate over bowled by Stephen Bunting to leave North Down requiring seven from six balls.
Marty Moreland, who earlier bowled his four overs for just 18 runs, got the Comber club home with three balls to spare, but Montgomery was the big hero, having hit six boundaries in a nerveless knock under pressure.
It was tough luck on Instonians whose 139 for four owed much to Moleon, who hit three towering sixes and two fours in 38 from just 33 balls. Opener Rory McCann hit 34 from 33 balls, including four fours, but it just wasnt enough for Inst, who lost in the Twenty20 final for the second successive time.
Earlier, NORTH Down and Instonians cruised into the finals of the Metal Technology Cup with victories over Carrickfergus and Waringstown respectively.
The fireworks were reserved for North Downs seven-wicket win over Carrick on the top pitch where the visitors looked well poised at the halfway stage, having posted a formidable looking 186 for six.
Ryan Eaglesons men started at a breathtaking pace, with Gavin Ewing smashing 36 from just 13 balls, including four fours and two sixes, and Ricky Stirling hitting 29 from 17 deliveries.
The pace barely let up throughout and a quickfire 40 from 27 balls from Michael Gilmour towards the end helped Carrickfergus reached what many observers assumed was a winning total.
However, their hopes were immediately shattered as Eagleson conceded 18 in his first over as Iain Robertson, the New Zealand batsman, unleashed a flurry of boundaries.
The right-hander brought up his 50 in just 20 balls and when North Down reached their 100 in the seventh over, a shell-shocked Carrick were already staring down the barrel of certain defeat.
Robertson was eventually bowled after a magnificent 87 from just 49 balls, including 15 fours and two sixes. Ryan Haire made 39 and Neil20Russell an unbeaten 20 as an eight-wicket victory was achieved with three overs to spare.
Instonians, missing 11 first team players, owed their eight-wicket win over Waringstown to some excellent seam bowling. The villagers never recovered after losing four early wickets on a lively astroturf pitch with Neil Hamilton (2-18) and Billy Dale (2-18) doing the bulk of the damage.
Jonathan Bushe held them up with 32 from 28 balls but they looked unlikely to reach 100 after slumping to 75 for seven. Tharaka Kottehewa at least offered them respectability, his unbeaten 32 from 19 balls helping the villagers reach 112 for seven.
Waringstown desperately needed early wickets but despite a fiery opening two overs from Kottehewa, Divan van Wyk, the Instonians professional, settled the match with an excellent 60 from 48 balls. The South African struck nine boundaries and Hamilton hit two fours and two sixes in his unbeaten 29 as they cruised home with almost four overs to spare.

Persistent to the idea of pursuing reflections that'll will challenge my identity along this quest I've taken, I set down for the first night in Brussels at Moji's place- a young video editor from Teheran. Later than night we went out to a real Carnival party, where Italians Russians French and Irish happy participants could be found dancing to Brazilian music that was followed by Hora and Kalinka. Differences of nationalities were so not an issue it was almost suspicious.
I think I've met my first Palestinian Face-Book friend in that party in Brussels- the capital of NGO's and Erasmus. Back at the 60s' it used to be coal mines that was the main city's products; now it is pluralism. Maybe it is due to the fact Eu's capital is located there, the fact that the city is bi-lingual by default (most of the people I've met spoke more than 2 languages). Maybe it is because 2 dominant nations are forced to co-operate- for almost 2 years they couldn't agree on a government, and yet the country functioned; This 'no man's land'- coming out as if it is -not owned by anyone- it portrays a significant impression of freedom. In Brussels people come before governments, and their portraits decorate the metro stations' walls.
Why Tel Aviv is not Brussels?
I was accused by my friend to take Israel as granted when it comes to value how colorful it is. One would be stupid not to acknowledge the variety of origins people come from to Israel, but In Israel it is not considered yet as a blessing, but rather as a burden. I wouldn't be so blinded to believe the Turkish boy will have the same opportunities as the Dutch in Brussels, but at least awareness for tolerance is way stronger. Belgium itself sent a call for Italians and Moroccans to come and work in its mines, so immigrants are a fact that it cannot ignore. While in Brussels, I accidently stepped into a welcoming shelter for illegal residencies on the street- in Israel's news I needed to watch them cover the industry of cells facilities on the south as a solution to the critical problem of refugees. (instead of putting the money in health-care and education for example).
Weren't we suppose to be "Or l'Goim'? (a sun to the other nations) What happened? How come the chosen people- who brought the book to the world are running behind on the race for the implementation of human rights?
Why does the Hegemony of Ashkenaz Jews still occupy the media, possessions and the elite status over other Jews, who were called (just like in Brussels) to join in the so-called mutual construction of our beloved land to revive it for all Jews wherever they are?
How do we manage our exclusive resource we are gifted with- a capital that it is sacred for 3 religions? And why only in Brussels I found a big Chinese super-market that does not lie in a heart of some Ghetto, but as another shop in the middle of the city?
My friends' daughters are half Ethiopian Jews. They'll share their bench in their school in Brussels with a native or an immigrant equally. When will I have it for my kids in Israel?
We are already a dominative nation after persecution of years. We made it. It's grand. I'm a live evidence for it. We won. It's time to take the prize and enjoy the fruits of the hard work. Leave the fears behind and take responsibility for our actions, instead of keep blaming the world for its stupidity. Let us be the leaders of the new voices, instead of escaping them.

In the period from 17 to 23 March , less than 25 km from the city of Berlin, Potsdam, there was held the third and the last part of the international seminar on Jewish Histories in Europe. Its theme was closely linked with the history of European Jews. The group, who participated in the seminar, as in the previous two meetings, consisted of Germans, French and Portuguese. This time, the Institute of History represented a group of five students (Eva Dyngosz, Luke Filipczyk, MA Christopher Kędziora, Catherine Odrzywołek), which was coordinated by Martyn Gradzka MA. The meeting in Potsdam was a special event, because it summed up almost a year long project, organized by the German Foundation Zeitpfeil and partner institutions from three other European countries.
We went to Potsdam less than a month ago. This trip was the most important point of the entire project. During the visit we had the unique chance to see many interesting places connected with the history of not only Jews, but of the German state as well. Potsdam is a city symbol, in which the beginning and the end was the most terrible period in the history of the twentieth century - it was here where on March 15, 1933, Adolf Hitler announced the proclamation of the Third Reich, and after 12 years since the events in August 1945 there, in the castle Cecilienhof a conference endiong the Second World War was held. During a Sunday walk we had the opportunity to see also this very place. Two participants of the project, representing the University of Potsdam walked with us around the city, showing places important for the local Jewish community.
In the next days of the seminar we visited the places associated with the period of World War II. Several kilometers from the center of Potsdam there is the villa in Wannsee. In this building on January 20, 1942, chaired by Reinhard Heydrich, held meetings during which decisions were taken to resolve the issue of the European Jews finally. Another important place on the route of our journey was a railway station in Berlin-Grunewald. It can be concluded that the events that took place there were a supplement to the decisions previously taken in Wannsee. It is the station Berlin-Grunewald, starting from 18 October 1941 until February 1945, the Jewish transports departed inhabitants of this city to the ghettos and concentration camps were created in the General Government. In addition, we were able to see the exhibits in three museums of modern Berlin: Jewish Museum, Topography of Terror and the Holocaust, which were substantial complement to this subject.
Potsdam is known mainly from the imposing palace and park of Sanssouci, built in the seventeenth century by Frederick the Great. Being in the city we also visited the complex. The early spring time does not reveal the full beauty of monumental buildings, monuments and gardens, but despite this, the view remained firmly in the memory.
Visits to various places were supplemented by workshops and discussions, during which we worked in international groups. The issues that we analyzed in a special way were: identity, memory and the ways and forms of commemoration in Germany, Poland, France and Portugal. We also debated on the ways and forms of education about the genocide in individual countries. Pending an all-day symposium heard several interesting papers. Dr. Irene Diekmann from the University of Potsdam, spoke about the Jews living in Brandenburg. In turn, Dr. Irene Flunser Pimental at the University of Lisbon, presented the topic of Jewish immigrants in Portugal during World War II. And Martyn Gradzka MA from the University of Education presented a paper on the influence of the Haskalah, the Jewish community living on Polish territory in the second half. Nineteenth century, then each group presented their projects on which she worked almost exactly a year. This is part of the seminar made it unique on the background of previous meetings. The product, which has prepared and presented the Polish group was www.kroke.czulent.pl website. It contains dozens of scientific articles on the history of the Krakow Jewish community and those directly connected with it, and on the Holocaust period. We wanted to create a friendly platform for the teacher and student, so it can be found on educational materials, the composition, which includes: lesson plans, ready-made multimedia presentations, and educational projects. The site also contains basic information about today's Kazimierz. Using the interactive map you can quickly find objects of interest. Another interesting option is a very detailed calendar, which allows you to move in a long time and know the history of Krakow's Jews over the centuries. In the longer term we would like to cooperate with educational institutions to create their own curriculum within the framework of the Regional Education Project. Our goal is to provide expert knowledge about the Jewish community living in Krakow, particularly young students who, every day learn and live in the city. We invite all willing to work both when creating content - all the while working on new articles, as well as in organizing educational activities and walks for the students.
Jewish Histories Project In Europe ended. It left a great impression, memories of the beautiful European cities, as well as knowledge of the Jewish communities living in different European countries. The whole seminar was held in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, was also a place for the formation of international relationships. The analyzed subjects is very broad, and we had a chance to talk just a few of its aspects, therefore, currently under discussion on the continuation of the project or the organization of smaller thematic seminars.

As I got more and more to the west (calling Stockholm neutral) I found Jewish identity in the communities shifting its course from using religion as its core to using nationality.
We all wish to group ourselves in a way. As Judaism is being performed in a very wide range (And I just travelled Europe so far) I recognized differences in the semantics people use when they come to define themselves inside this complex group.
Let it be in your mind, that I spend 1 week as a foreigner everyplace I go, and I regularly compare my findings with my knowledge of Tel-Aviv, where I was brought up, and Budapest- where I lived and worked, as the origin of my own "Jewish Renaissance". I'm not a professional analyst of a well known university, and I'll probably, won't truly get a grasp on society when they bring it to me in numbers. I tend to experience the world by a very limited individual tool-box of senses more than by scientific objective tools.
And the people who come to my aid on this process of designing my view on the Jewish world are the people I meet. In every country I've been, I was drawn to stick to one prominent character that let me adopt their perspective, and in Amsterdam I was lucky enough to meet Natascha, a young ambitious and fascinating writer, that's busy greatly with the sac of Jewish values she inherited. Natascha's bound to be different in her surrounding, her non-European appearance, her over-protective education which was tremendously influenced by the heavy shadow of 'Shoah' memories, and other things like certain political views and incredible sensitivity which makes her the talented artist she is.
Identifying with many of her stories, I believe those features lead her to take a more ex-centric position.
If you live in an Eastern Jewish community (where voices of Antisemitism could be still heard) most probably you will vote as a lefty, in most of the cases regarding your life-style. You would like to promote human-rights for your own well-being as a minority. (In Budapest many activists saw themselves obligated to do so even on issues of other ethnic-groups like the Romans, for example). Going west social statuses of most of the Jews will be a bit more assuring, and the Islamophobia takes over. In that case, assimilated 'well-behaved' Jews would be considered as the "good citizens" for the demographic balance. A Jew in such position (not embracing the image of the "persecuted, that is) will seek for new characteristics to identify himself by, and would probably stroll down to take a more right-wing and nationalistic approach (like in Israel) making Zionism as his "new religion". i.e. using a strong militaristic Israel as a mean to his Jewish definition of himself.
Natascha was not like that, because her critical mind never let her to look for an enemy in order to group herself. In fact, she admits, she feels like a Jew without a community.
That is why she wishes so much to explore more the Israeli life. (And not by going to the army). One good friend of mine once put it for me: Having more than one identity is for sure much more interesting and wild. Nevertheless, it is a heavy job. Some time you need to take a break and search for a place you could lay down at least one of those identities for a while.
What I thought was interesting most of all though, was that even raised in a Jewish home, dating a Jewish guy and dealing with Jewish topics in her material, Natascha still bases her Jewish cultural back-ground on the Israeli one. Practicing her Judaism came more in a form of listening to Idan Reichel rather than to Yiddish songs, and loving shakshuka more than latkes.
*Natacsa's graduation film "Lost and found" (that takes place in Tel-Aviv) is now on post-production.

Commencement Procession
Brown University's Commencement is one of the most colorful and enjoyable academic pageants in the country. Alumni are welcome to march in the Commencement procession (academic regalia required) and attend the ceremony. The Medical School's Commencement Procession will begin to form in front of Faunce House on Waterman Street (extending back to Thayer Street) on Sunday, May 25, promptly at 10:30 a.m., and will step off at approximately 10:45 a.m.
It is customary for medical alumni to wear academic regalia—a gown, tam, and hood representative of their degree. There is also an option to wear a traditional cutaway with high silk hat and plain white shirt. Please check back for more information on rentals in February 2014.

Ovechkin talks to the media after 2-3 loss to Rangers
Q: What went wrong on winning goal?
Ovechkin: "I think it was my mistake when we hold puck in the corner I just turn it over and then try to make a play. But again it hit my stick and goes in."
Ovi is growing a beard.

The Amsterdam city centre includes one of the most important collections of Renaissance buildings and art in all of Europe. Indeed, there are a number of buildings dating to the period between the 16th and 17th centuries, known in Holland as "The Golden Age", and these are all considered precious historical monuments. Most are located around a series of semicircular canals that surround the historical port. Amsterdam's city centre is one of Europe's most popular destinations and because of this, you'll find a large number of Amsterdam city centre hotels, many of which will be discount hotels.
In Amsterdam, the city centre doesn't only have historical monuments to offer, though. You can visit the wide variety of private art galleries, as well as museums located here and in the immediate surroundings of the city center. Visitors love to check out the Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank's House and the Rembrandt House Museum, to name just a few of the popular nearby attractions. Hop on to Easytobook.com to do some research on hotels near Amsterdam city centre, as well as apartments, and other affordable accommodations in the vicinity of the city centre.

There will be no setting fee. I am going to charge by the hour. My hourly rate is $40 with a 1-hour minimum. The time starts when I have the camera set up and I take the first photo. As a customer I don't want you to feel rushed and as a photographer, I don't want to feel rushed so I think the 1-hour minimum is good for both of us. If you are looking for a basic shoot then one hour at one location should be enough to get a nice set of pictures, but I like the variety that different locations offer too. I have shot at a couple of locations in Humboldt and at three or four in Chanute. There are some nice sites between Chanute and Humboldt as well. I also have a couple of great places in Iola. Changes of clothes are OK with me. Two of the three locations I have shot from in Chanute have public restrooms close by. If you have a special location picked out let me know and we can shoot from there.
Since I charge by the hour it would not bother me if your Senior wanted to include brothers or sisters or other family or friends in some of the photographs too. Because you are hiring me by the hour I would be open to this type of additional photography. I would welcome and encourage parents to attend the photo session and I would also welcome your input or suggestions on poses.
Shortly after the shoot we will get together and I will show you a set of at least 15, 4" x 6" proofs. Once you have had the chance to see my proofs, you can decide to order prints from me or you can decide to use another photographer. If you decide you like my work and you want to order some prints I will collect my hourly shoot fee at that time, plus a $30 per proof book deposit. I will collect the cost of the print order when I deliver them to you.
I am not going to offer a package of photographs. Often times these "packages" seem to include sizes that customers just are not interested in. I am going to let you put your own package together. Just let me know how many photos you want and of what size and I will get them ordered. I do not print at home using my computer. All of the images will be uploaded to the internet and printed at a professional shop.
The cost of the prints will be.
$1 per 2.5" x 3.5" Wallet with or without lettering added.
$1 per 4" x 6" Print.
$2 per 4" x 6" Collage with at least one photo added.
$5 per 5" x 7" Print.
$10 per 5" x 7" Collage with at least one photo added.
$10 per 8" x 10" Print.
$15 per 8" x 10" Collage with at least one photo added.
I can also offer prints larger than the standard 8" x 10"s.
$23 per 11" x 14" Print.
$33 per 11" x 14" Collage with at least one picture added.
$32 per 12" x 18" Print.
$42 per 12" x 18" Collage with at least one picture added.
$47 per 16" x 20" Print.
$57 per 16" x 20" Collage with at least one picture added.
$65 per 20" x 30" Print.
$75 per 20" x 30" Collage with at least one picture added.
* A note about the Wallets*.
The wallets are $1 each. The corners will be rounded on them and they will look very professional.
I will be able to deliver the prints to you soon after you have placed your order with me. I can order black and whites, color prints, or a black and white with an isolated color. I can add names or dates or just about any wording to the prints and as you can see, I also offer collages.
I think my rates are reasonable and fair but I also might consider them to be an introductory rate. If I am successful and things seem to be going well I may have to increase my rates but I have a real job so I don't feel that I need to make a full time living from my photography. I want to enjoy it and have fun and if I can do that, and save you from going to a more "professional" photographer, then maybe both of us can benefit.
To schedule a Senior or Portrait Photography shoot just give me a call at 473-3786 or send me an e-mail at
Of course you can also catch me at many of the Humboldt High games.
And these portraits can be made into great collages.
I took this photo in color then saved just the couple and converted everything else to black and white.
Since the photo above was taken I have added some more equipment to my collection.
This photo shows my new Canon EOS 50D. It has a Canon 24-105mm F 4 L I.S. zoom lens on it and it is attached to a Custom Brackets flash bracket. The Canon EX 430 flash is also setting on the flash bracket.
If you look closely you might also be able to see my Canon EOS Rebel XTi, a Canon AE-1 Program, and a Pentax K-1000 camera body. The photo also shows just a small part of my lens collection.
I am not trying to brag but I wanted to include this photo so my potential customers can see that my camera collection is made up of quality cameras and equipment. If price translates into quality, and I think it often does, then this is a good camera system.
I often carry a portfolio book of my portrait and sports photos with me. Those portfolios have many more pictures in them than I can show here. Just ask and I will show them to you.
To schedule a shoot just give me a call at 473-3786 or send me an e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com

From time to time, I post short interviews with interesting people about their insights on happiness.
During my study of happiness, I've noticed that I often learn more from one person's highly idiosyncratic experiences than I do from sources that detail universal principles or cite up-to-date studies. There's something peculiarly compelling and instructive about hearing other people's happiness stories. I'm much more likely to be convinced to try a piece of advice urged by a specific person who tells me that it worked for him, than by any other kind of argument.
Today's interview is with Gina Trapani of the wildly popular megablog, Lifehacker. Lifehacker is crammed with all sorts of tips and hacks for getting things done more efficiently and with more fun; it has a tech flavor, but not so much that a non-techy person like me can't get a lot out of it. It has contributed to a huge number of readers' happiness, including mine.
Gina Trapani also just came out with a great new book, Upgrade Your Life: The Lifehacker Guide to Working Smarter, Faster, Better, that pulls together the best material from Lifehacker — check out the book's website if you want a preview.
Gretchen: What's a simple activity that consistently makes you happier?
Gina: Talking with and spending time with people I love and admire always lifts my mood–even if it's just a phone call. I work from home alone every day, so non-computer screen social time and that feeling of connection really helps me.
Gretchen: What's something you know now about happiness that you didn't know when you were 18 years old?
Gina: That getting that job/relationship/paycheck/grade/degree/recognition wouldn't make me happy long-term. It would give me a shot of happiness around the time it happened, but that long term happiness is about the attitude I choose to have every day regardless of the circumstances of my life.
Gretchen: Is there anything you find yourself doing repeatedly that gets in the way of your happiness?
Gina: I've got a bad case of perfectionism, and I put pressure on myself to do too much, and that stress can kill happiness pretty quick. I also compare what I've done to what others have done and find ways that I come up short. That kind of self-criticism is natural and normal–especially for over-achievers–but it can be deadly, too.
Gretchen: Is there a happiness mantra or motto that you've find very helpful? Or a happiness quotation that has struck you as particularly insightful?
Gina: Forgive me for this nerdy reference from The Matrix, but: "It is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself."
That's my inner call to stop waiting around for something to happen ("because THEN I'll be happy!") and change my own mind about where I am and what I have right now.
Gretchen: Is there anything that you see people around you doing or saying that adds a lot to their happiness, or detracts a lot from their happiness?
Gina: I think words are more powerful than we realize. Our lives are the stories we tell ourselves, so saying self-defeating things turns into negative experiences. You know what things I'm talking about: "I can't do it. That's too hard. I'll never be that successful/get out of debt/resolve this problem/impress my boss. Everyone else gets everything they want but I always get the short end of the stick."
On the opposite side of the coin, I love hearing people cast a positive spell over themselves and say things like "This is going to be great. I am so lucky. What a beautiful day. I'm so looking forward to this. I'm ready to kick ass on this project. Look at how cool this is!"
You can tell a lot about people by the casual remarks they make. I avoid Negative Nancies for the sake of my own happiness–I've actually ended friendships because I couldn't handle the constant negativity.
Gretchen: Have you always felt about the same level of happiness, or have you been through a period when you felt exceptionally happy or unhappy – if so, why? If you were unhappy, how did you become happier?
Gina: Like most people, my high school years were exceptionally unhappy, because I hadn't developed the self-confidence to not worry about what other people thought of me. A year or two after September 11th–when I lived in NYC and worked near the Towers–was also incredibly difficult, though that was probably more a city-wide case of PTSD than anything else. Even after crazy traumatic events like that, I found my natural happiness level resumed its former self, but it did take time.
There's a great post on the Freakonomics blog about modern proverbs — that is, not traditional proverbs, like "A stitch in time save nine" (I was twenty years old before I figured that out), but new proverbs, like "It takes a village," or "Fake it 'till you feel it."
It was nice, too, to see that the question was posed by Fred Shapiro, the Yale quotation-master whom I saw in the Yale Law School library practically every day when I was in law school.
I'm going to start sending out a short monthly newsletter. If you'd like to sign up, click on the link in the upper-right-hand corner of my blog. Or just email me at grubin, then the "at" sign, then gretchenrubin dot com. No need to write anything more than "newsletter" in the subject line. I'll add your name to the list.
