Over the past several weeks I've been working on some content I'm excited to finally share with you through a series of blog posts. This series will introduce you to Windows 8 development from an Android developer's perspective. Through the course of the series you'll create your first app. It won't be anything pretty, but you'll learn the ins and outs of the development environment, how to create a simple user interface, and how to perform navigation. Along the way you'll see some Android Hints that will help make it easier for you to transition your existing skills to the Windows platform. You'll also see some Visual Studio Tips to make you more productive in your development environment. Good luck!
Your first task when it comes to Windows 8 development is getting your development environment up and running. It's a three step process:
Install Windows 8
You can't create Windows Store apps on anything but Windows 8. You have several options. If you're running a Windows 7 machine, you can either upgrade your existing install, create a separate partition for you Windows 8 install, or create a bootable vhd with Windows 8. If you're running Max OS X you can use Boot Camp to create a Windows 8 partition for dual booting, or you can use software like Parallels to run a Windows 8 VM inside of OS X. On a Mac I prefer Parallels as it allows me to easily move back and forth between a Windows and Mac environment. If you go down this road make sure you have plenty of RAM on your machine. My MacBook Air has 8 GB of RAM and it works well for me.
Install Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8
Download and install Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8 from http://aka.ms/getvs12now. Visual Studio is the IDE, similar to Eclipse, that you'll use for creating Windows Store applications. Please note, there are a five Visual Studio Express products available. Make sure you download and install the one specifically for Windows 8.
There are two options for installation, a web installer and a disk image. A description of each is below, choose the one that works best for you:
- Web Installer – this is a small initial download that will download the necessary components during the installation process. Download at http://bit.ly/XLyHZ5.
- Disk Image (iso) – This is the full installer, no additional downloads are required. Download at http://bit.ly/YdGiz4.
Get a developer license for Windows 8
A developer license lets you install, develop, test, and evaluate Windows Store apps before the Windows Store tests and certifies them. Licenses are free, acquisition is automatic and you can acquire as many as you need. You will need a Microsoft account to obtain your developer license. You can read more about Microsoft accounts and sign up for one, if you don't already have one, at http://bit.ly/Nt0efj. Getting the license is easy. The first time you run Visual Studio 2012 on your development machine you will be prompted to obtain a developer license. Developer licenses expire every 30 days, and Visual Studio will prompt you to renew your developer license if it has expired.
That's it! You're good to go. In the next lesson you'll learn how to create your first Windows Store project.

There's something for everyone in Lyric's 2014/15 season, including some of opera's must recognizable music from Don Giovanni, Il Trovatore, Tosca, and more! Read on to see and hear some of this season's hit tunes.
There's something for everyone in Lyric's 2014/15 season, including some of opera's must recognizable tunes. You might know some of these selections outside of their operatic homes—come and see these famous songs as you only can see them at Lyric, with the grandest staging and finest musicians.
On stage September 27 to October 29
The Champagne Aria
Mariusz Kwiecień performs the Champagne Aria from Don Giovanni in this video from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden's 2014 production. The song is an ode to the fabulous party that the Don is planning, yet another occasion for him to add to his list of conquests. Kwiecień plays a Giovanni who has smoldering movie star charisma in Lyric's brand-new production from renowned stage director Robert Falls, which updates the setting to 1920s Spain.
"La ci darem la mano"
This love duet between the duplicitous Don and the naïve Zerlina is one of the most well-known in the operatic repertoire. The odd couple of Luciano Pavarotti and Sheryl Crow have teamed up to perform it in concert! Once again is Mariusz Kwiecień, Lyric's Giovanni, with Mojca Erdmann as Zerlina.
(Metropolitan Opera, 2011)
On stage October 27 to November 29
The Anvil Chorus
You've heard it in commercials and in films—now come see it on Lyric's stage! The Anvil Chorus from Verdi's Il Trovatore is one of the most famous tunes in opera. You're sure to be humming it for days after you see it in performance. Here is the incredible scene from director Sir David McVicar's epic production.
On stage November 17 to December 20
"Summertime" and more…
Gershwin's Porgy and Bess is filled with an incredible number of songs that have made their way into the popular songbook, including "Summertime," "Bess, You Is My Woman Now," "I Got Plenty o' Nuttin," "It Ain't Necessarily So." Here's a highlight reel of some of those amazing songs as performed at the San Francisco Opera in 2009 —and this is the very same production that will be right here at Lyric with Eric Owens as Porgy.
On stage January 24 to March 14
"Vissi d'arte"
Puccini's gut-wrenching story features a number of incredible musical moments, but none is quite so magical as "Vissi d'arte," Tosca's beautiful aria describing how she's lived for art and love, only to have fate turn against her. This season, you'll have two chances to hear this wonderful piece interpreted with Tatiana Serjan and Hui He both starring in the new-to-Lyric production.
The luminous Sondra Radvanovsky, who will take on the role of Anne Boleyn in Donizetti's Anna Bolena at Lyric later this year, brings this magnificent aria to life.
On stage February 9 to March 6
The Pilgrim's Chorus
The Pilgrim's Chorus in Act 3 of Tannhäuser is one of Wagner's most beautiful and majestic melodies. The simple melody starts quietly, as the singers are off stage, but grows until the full orchestra and chorus are at full volume. It has become a staple of concert choirs such as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and was even one of the Wagner melodies quoted in the Bugs Bunny cartoon "What's Opera, Doc?" We dare you not to be moved.

Even more Michael Black! Lyric's chorus master was featured in the August edition of Lyric Notes, and here is some bonus info from that interview.
In our August edition of Lyric Notes, Lyric's Chorus Master Michael Black takes us through some of the choral highlights of the 2014-15 season, including Lyric's mainstage production of Verdi's Il Trovatore and the two very special Chorus showcases at Chicago's Fourth Presbyterian Church on September 12 and Evanston's Alice Millar Chapel on November 22.
Here are some tidbits that we couldn't fit into the article, including his history with the opera, why he loves Sir David McVicar's productions, and what this Aussie has been doing over his Lyric vacation.
Il Trovatore is one of the standards of the operatic repertoire—what is your history with the piece?
I've prepared Trovatore perhaps five or six times on two different productions at Opera Australia. The first production was a delightful Elijah Moshinsky production and, a few years earlier, premiered with Dame Joan Sutherland as Leonore. Coincidentally when I first worked on the piece the conductor was Dame Joan's husband Richard Bonynge. I have also had the dubious distinction of being one of two anvil players at every performance of Trovatore I have been involved in. [Black will stay behind the scenes in Lyric's production. Watch for some talented supernumeraries to provide the signature anvil clash!]
Reading about Sir David McVicar's production of Trovatore, one of the advantages of moving the action to the early 1800s is that the gypsies in the Anvil Chorus are actually forging weapons. How do you prepare the Chorus for this iconic scene?
Fortunately, as with all amazing directors, Sir David uses actors to give the illusion that the chorus is moving and performing strenuous moves. He lets the chorus sing! They just have to keep out of the way of the anvils!
How have you been keeping busy this summer? Can you let us in on some of your travels and the musical projects that keep you busy in the off-season?
I arrived back in Sydney the day of my son Liam's 18th birthday, and then took off to thaw out after the incredibly cold Chicago winter by relaxing by a pool in Bali with my Kindle catching up on some reading whilst getting some sun. Apart from the Bali trip I was in Sydney the entire time where I was lucky enough to do a short stint as répétiteur [rehearsal pianist and coach] on a terrific Harry Kupfer production of Otello at the Sydney Opera House. It was a treat listening to my old chorus from a distance and having absolutely no responsibility for them!

Gypsies! Curses! Brothers switched at birth! A love triangle! Tragic deaths! Verdi's Il Trovatore truly has everything.

Gypsies! Curses! Brothers switched at birth! A love triangle! Tragic deaths! Verdi's Il Trovatore truly has everything. The opera was a hugely popular success when it premiered, and it today remains one of the 20 most popular operas performed around the world.
Before you come and see Yonghoon Lee, Amber Wagner, Stephanie Blythe, and Quinn Kelsey in Sir David McVicar's production later this season, take a look at some past productions of this great opera throughout Lyric's history.
Il Trovatore had its company premiere in 1955, the second season of Lyric Theatre of Chicago. This production was conducted by company co-founder Nicola Rescigno and featured an all-star cast that included tenor Jussi Björling. Maria Callas—who had just made her American debut in Chicago in 1954—was making her second of three appearances in the 1955 season as Leonora. Callas had appeared in three productions in Lyric's inaugural season. Her sixth and final opera appearance at Lyric also came in 1955 when she played Cio-Cio San in her only staged performances of Puccini's Madama Butterfly. In the photo below, she is greeting Metropolitan Opera general manager Rudolf Bing after one of her Trovatore performances.
Though there are no pictures of Lyric's 1956 production of Il Trovatore, it was notable in that it was the American debut of Bruno Bartoletti, Lyric's future artistic director and principal conductor. Replacing his mentor, Tullio Serafin, Bartoletti would win rave reviews and the admiration of Carol Fox, who would later appoint him co-artistic director with Pino Donati.
The 1958 production was conducted by Lee Schaenen and featured Ettore Bastianini and Jussi Björling returning as di Luna and Manrico, with Elinor Ross as Leonora and the great Giulietta Simionato as Azucena.
Pictured below (clockwise from top left): Jussi Björling, Anna-Lisa Björling, and Ettore Bastianini read backstage; Leonora (Ross) and Manrico (Björling); Azucena (Simionato) confronts di Luna (Bastianini) as Leonora (Ross) lies dead.
This new-to-Lyric production was imported from the Metropolitan Opera in New York, where it had been performed a few years earlier. Lyric's stage director was Christopher West and the set and costumes were created by the design group Motley, whose sketches are below.
Grace Bumbry portrayed Azucena, with Franco Corelli as Manrico (one of his signature roles), along with Ilva Ligabue (Leonora), and Mario Zanasi (di Luna) completing the leading quartet. Bruno Bartoletti returned to conduct in his first season as co-artistic director.
Pictured above (clockwise from left): Azucena (Bumbry) and Manrico (Corelli); Manrico (Corelli) and Leonora (Ligabue); and di Luna (Zanasi) and Leonora (Ligabue).
This production is also notable for featuring in Count di Luna's army some supernumeraries from Chicago's Kelvyn Park High School, including a young Mike Gross. He would, of course, later go on to achieve huge success as Steven Keaton in Family Ties.
After more than a 20-year absence from Lyric's stage, ll Trovatore would return in a new production from director Sonja Frisell (designed by Nicola Benois) with Bruno Bartoletti on the podium. Pictured below (clockwise from top left) are Giuliano Ciannella as Manrico and Shirley Verrett as Azucena; a view of the set; Leo Nucci as Count di Luna; and Anna Tomowa-Sintow as Leonora.
This was a revival of Frisell's production, last seen in 1987-88 (this time with conductor Richard Buckley), but these performances of Il Trovatore were notable for featuring the new Verdi critical edition that had just been released by the University of Chicago Press. Dolora Zajick portrayed Azucena—one of her most acclaimed roles—with Chris Merritt (Manrico), Paolo Gavanelli (di Luna), and Lyubov Kazarnovskaya (Leonora).
Pictured above (clockwise from top left): Manrico (Merritt) and Azucena (Zajick); Azucena (Zajick) confronts di Luna (Gavanelli); Leonora (Kazarnovskaya) and Manrico (Merritt); and Leonora (Kazarnovskaya), Manrico (Merritt), and di Luna (Gavanelli).
A decade after its last Lyric performance, Sir David McVicar updated the action to Spain in the early 1800s, during the Peninsular Wars. The sets, designed by Charles Edwards, were inspired by the paintings of Goya and are grounded by an impenetrable castle wall. Due to the change in period, the gypsies actually have something to do during the Anvil Chorus—they are making weapons for the revolution!
Dolora Zajick reprised her 1993-94 role as Azucena, with Walter Fraccaro as Manrico, Sondra Radvanovsky as Leonora, and Mark Delavan as Count di Luna. This production is also notable because it would be Bruno Bartoletti's second-to-last appearance on Lyric's podium. He would return to open the 2007-08 season with La Traviata, his final Lyric appearance.
Pictured above (clockwise from top left): Azucena (Zajick); the Anvil Chorus scene; Manrico (Fraccaro) and Leonora (Radvanovsky); di Luna (Delavan) and Manrico (Fraccaro) duel in front of Leonora (Radvanovsky).

CERES – The Manteca Buffaloes made sure not to allow their recent Valley Oak League defeat to have any lingering effect, blowing past the Central Valley Hawks, 6-1, for their third consecutive win since a 3-0 loss to Sierra High April 15.
Andrew Bonner continued to lead by example, turning in a 3-under-par round of 34 to earn medalist honors in Ripon High's 200-226 victory over Manteca High Thursday in non-league action at Manteca Golf Course.
SONORA - The recent rain kept Manteca High's tennis team off the court for a couple days, and the Buffaloes had to play through a little drizzle in Thursday's match against defending Valley Oak League champion.
OAKDALE – Weston Ranch didn't get any favors from the weather when a rainout turned a home game against the defending Valley Oak League champions into a double-header at their yard, ending with the Cougars dealing with a pair of shutout defeats.
The weather conditions were far from ideal for golf.
The Madness in the Mother Lode All-Star Extravaganza will kick off Saturday evening and Sierra High boys basketball head coach Scott Thomason is set to lead one of the large schools all-star teams and seven Valley Oak League standouts.
With only one dual-meet remaining in the Valley Oak League season, the Sierra Timberwolves have handled business in every facet of the program, setting up a winner-take-all finale with the Oakdale Mustangs after a thorough demolishing of an undermanned Lathrop High squad.
This time, Manteca High's soccer team was ready for Wafa Hafed and the Weston Ranch Cougars.
Oakdale High girls soccer coach Alfredo Quiroga couldn't remember the last time his team beat perennial Valley Oak League powerhouse Sierra after Tuesday's 3-1 stunner at Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium.
The three goals that the East Union Lancers were able to string together in the first half was enough in the early part of Tuesday's game against visiting Ceres to lock up a key Valley Oak League victory.
Today's big crosstown baseball game between Ripon and Ripon Christian is a no go.
RIPON - Injuries haven't knocked Ripon High's soccer team off track in its quest for a fourth straight Trans Valley League championship, and the Indians took another big step to achieve that feat with a 5-0 win over Hughson at Park View Elementary School Monday.
Spotted a one-run lead early and backed by a rare defensive gem by her Manteca High teammates, Mariah Navarro had the most confidence she's had in the pitcher's circle all season going into the top of the seventh inning against visiting rival Sierra.
SONORA - The fun now begins for Sierra High's soccer team, which blew out Sonora 8-0 Monday at Dunlavy Field.
Sierra High softball ace Gabby Hawkins has given East Union fits over the past two years, even outdueling four-time Bulletin All-Area MVP Erin Arevalo, now a starter for the University of Georgia, in a 3-2 upset win in 2008.
The weather is expected to cooperate for today's Valley Oak League rematch between Manteca and Central Catholic, which was originally postponed because of rain last Thursday.
Brooke Riley's round didn't end as well as she had hoped during East Union's Valley Oak League dual match at Oakdale Golf and Country Club on Tuesday.
Scoring was at a premium Saturday when the Manteca Jr. Timberwolves junior novice squad locked up with the Tracy Jr. Bulldogs, who prevailed 6-0 in Delta Youth Football League action.
STOCKTON - The blond streak in Esteban Paramo's hair may have started as a personal statement of style, but it's come to symbolize something much bigger.
Sierra played perfect defense from the second minute to the 78th Monday against visiting East Union.
Brooke Riley shot an even-par 37 to lead East Union's 246-288 win over Manteca at Manteca Park Golf Course. Monday's win moves the Lancers to 5-0 in the Valley Oak League.

Been playing goalie since I was about 8 and have had all different pads. Worst pads I ever bought were the CCM Heaton 10's. Used them for one year in Midgets and they were just brutal. Then I moved to the Velocitys and loved them. Used them all the way through high school and then my first 2 years of college. Then last year the ACHA thought it would be cool to make all goalies buy 11'' wide pads. Knowing I only had two years left and needed all new equipment I didn't want to spend $2000 bucks on Velocity's, so I ordered from Simmons. I got the new Ultra Light 5's, and they are pretty much just like the Velocity's. Used them this year and had 0 problems. For about $1200 I got blocker glove and pads. Wouldn't even have been able to get a pair of Velocity's for that price.
H10s at more for old schoolers. I know some guys that couldn't play without em. As for the Simmons, Vaughns will hold up better and I'm not one for supporting a company who takes other peoples gear, steal their designs, uses cheaper materials to make them with, and then in turn sells them as their own. Not to mention blatantly rips off Vaughns Price graphics. Poor poor business practice and poor ethics. I can't support a company like that no matter how strapped for cash I might be.

Israeli strike hits Gaza media building, several hurt
Published on Nov 18, 2012 8:55 AM
GAZA CITY, Palestinian Territories (AFP) - An Israeli air strike hit a Gaza City media building on Sunday, injuring at least six journalists, as a separate raid in northern Gaza killed two people, Palestinian medical sources said.
"At least six journalists were wounded, with minor and moderate injuries, when Israeli warplanes hit the al-Quds TV office in the Showa and Housari building in the Rimal neighbourhood of Gaza City," health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said.
Witnesses reported extensive damage to the building, and said journalists in the building had evacuated after an initial strike, which was followed by at least two more on the site.
In the northern strip, Israeli war planes carried out two separate raids on houses that killed two and injured 10 others, Mr Qudra said.

Compilation of why cruisers are UP

Only one Tactical ability is mostly only availible to Escorts that help them tank "better" than a Cruiser.
Attack Pattern Omega. Escorts can cycle two of them to maintain maximum bonus damage resistance.
Only a few Cruiser have a LTC tac SLot to use ApO1, and they can not cycle them unless they use twin or single ATB1 to keep it rolling.
Only one special defense bonus is given to escorts to help them tank. They recieve 10% more Bonuse defense when moving at an attack speed. Cruiser are 10% less.
THis is meant to reflect that an escort, like a fighter, has a betetr chance to juke and evade than a massive Cruiser in combat.
If a cruiser dies quick in PvE then they are doing something wrong because that is all that really sperates them from escort in PvP and the NPC's in this game do not hit near as effectively as a human to be a threat in 90% of the game. The other 10% is not that much stronger since it relies on 1-shots to kill the player more than anything else.
I was actually thinking of Attack Pattern Delta as a devensive bonus though mostly the fact that practically
escort is going to be running two copies of Tactical Team 1 which is a much more effective "defense" bonus than running around because your shields soak so much of your damage and you've efffectively increased your shield HP by a factor of four everytime you use it.
I suppose I should use an example for what I mean by effective tanking - in Khitomer Space Normal when you blow two generators a pair of Spheres show up. Before the latest buff to the Borg I could do this with an escort and blow away both spheres while taking moderate damage. In the same amount of time I could take on one with a cruiser and sustain only moderate damage. While hull HP would be lower on the escort at no point would I have had to disengage and heal.
With the cube that shows up in the Elite version my Escort will take more damage true, but it's ability to soak damage is still sufficient to allow it to sit and hammer away at the Cube until it's dead.
That is what I mean when I say that an escort can tank just as/more effectively than a cruiser. Not that it can soak
damage batter than a cruiser, but that it's
ability to soak damage is equal to or greater than a cruiser's.

Marc Staal's game is returning
What Marc Staal saw through his tinted visor didn't really concern him. Columbus defenseman Nikita Nikitin was skating with the puck on the right side of his own zone, perhaps 80 feet away. Staal was on the left side of the Rangers zone.
Nikitin began to shoot, hesitated, took another stride, and whipped a wrister in Staal's direction, apparently trying to get the puck deep.

You Love: Mayo
Instead Try: Avocados
It's hard to resist the creamy richness of mayonnaise…until you realize that you can get the same effect (and even better taste) with fresh avocados! You'll save tons of sodium, cholesterol, saturated fat, and calories while adding fiber and potassium to your snack or sammie. For even more flavor, mash up the superfood with some lime, cilantro, and tomatoes for a great-for-you guac.
You Love: Maple syrup
Instead Try: Peanut butter
Just two ounces of pancake syrup contains 36 grams of sugar- that's like eating two full candy bars! Boost your breakfast by topping your faves with peanut butter. It's not exactly a health food, but PB is a sweet treat that gives ya a nice dose of healthy fats and vitamins. Opt for the crunchy kind to really indulge!
You Love: Ketchup
Instead Try: Fresh tomatoes, salsa or hot sauce
What's the catch with Ketchup? Surprisingly, sugar! Even worse, America's favorite sauce barely has any nutritious vitamins and minerals that your body needs. But fresh tomatoes, salsa, or even hot sauce can all take ketchup's place. Your bod will thank you (and so will your taste buds).
You Love: Jam
Instead Try: Fresh fruit
Toast, waffles, sammies…so many foods go perfectly with fruity sweetness. But jams and jellys are among the sauces slipping you unnecessary sugars. Try fresh fruit instead. Or try heating up your fave fruits with a pinch of sugar for your own, healthier version of the sweet sauce.
You Love: Creamy salad dressings
Instead Try: Oil & vinegar
Whether you're dressing your burger or dipping fresh veggies, creamy salad dressings are go-to food toppers. But just because they've got "salad" in the name, doesn't mean they're healthy! In fact, most dressings are super high in fat, calories, and even sugar. Just one serving of Ranch has about a quarter of your recommended daily fat intake- and that's a lot for a little bit of sauce. So skip the thick and go for a lighter, just as delish alternative. Mix up some oil, vinegar and your fave spices—yum!

SLAYTON - The Murray County Historical Society Museum is hosting another Lunchbox Lecture Series on Thursday, December 4.
The lecture will be held from noon to 1 p.m. at the Dinehart-Holt House in Slayton. Participants should bring their own lunch and the museum staff will set up tables and serve coffee. Cost for the lecture is $3, with Murray County Historical Society members admitted for free.
Guest speaker will be Colin Mustful, author of "Grace at Spirit Lake," a novel that tells the story of the people and events of the Spirit Lake Massacre of 1857. This lesser known tragedy is often regarded as the critical event which foreshadowed the U.S. – Dakota Conflict of 1862. The story captures the events through the eyes of Joseph Campbell, a real life interpreter to the Dakota Indians.
According to Mustful, the novel is historically accurate. All are welcome to attend the fun and educational event.
SIOUX FALLS, SD - The Minnehaha County Coroner has ordered an autopsy after the discovery of the body of a 39-year-old Sioux Falls woman on Tuesday.
According to Public Information Officer Sam Clemens, the body of the woman was found in an apartment on the 500 block of S. Western Avenue. Clemens said the coroner thought there was something out of the ordinary about the death, and decided an autopsy should be conducted.
Clemens did not say what specifically was questionable about the death. The results of the autopsy are pending.
MINNESOTA - Minnesota hunters registered 111,000 deer through the third and last weekend of firearms deer season, down 31,000 from the same period in 2013, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
So far this year during special hunts and the archery, early antlerless and firearms seasons, hunters have harvested 127,000 deer, down from the 2013 to-date harvest total of 144,000.
This year's lower harvest is by design because regulations were implemented to place more deer – particularly does – off limits to increase Minnesota's deer population.
The DNR's ongoing deer management work also includes upcoming revisions to the deer population goals for large portions of northeastern, north-central and east-central Minnesota. This is part of a multi-year goal-setting process for the entire state. People interested in helping set these deer population goals can get more information on the process and opportunities for involvement at www.mndnr.gov/deer.
MINNESOTA – To keep motorists and memories safe this holiday season, law enforcement across the state will be on the lookout for drunk drivers beginning this week. The extra enforcement campaign runs on weekends through December 27.
During the Thanksgiving holiday period over the last three years, there were 1,624 drivers arrested for driving while impaired.
Crashes involving drunk drivers have lasting effects on survivors and their families: 17 people suffered life-changing injuries in crashes involving an impaired drive during the Thanksgiving holiday period the last three years.
An increasing number of motorists are getting the message to drive sober or get pulled over. DWI arrests have gone down every year since 2006 when law enforcement officers arrested 41,951 drivers in Minnesota for DWI. The 2013 numbers statewide dropped to 25,719 — the lowest in recent history.
However, there are almost 600,000 Minnesota residents with a DWI on their record — that's one out of every seven drivers in the state.
The consequences of a DWI are nothing to fool around with. First, there's the loss of a license for up to a year, thousands of dollars in costs and possible jail time. Repeat DWI offenders, as well as first-time offenders arrested at 0.16 and above alcohol-concentration level, must use ignition interlock in order to regain legal driving privileges or face at least one year without a driver's license. Offenders with three or more offenses are required to use interlock for three to six years, or they will never regain driving privileges.
So plan for a safe ride – designate a sober driver, use a cab/public transportation or stay at the location of the celebration.
MINNESOTA - Two young Minnesotans face federal conspiracy charges tied to their alleged efforts to provide "material support" to the radical group Islamic State, also known as ISIS.
Abdullahi Yusuf, 18, of Inver Grove Heights and Abdi Nur, 20, of Minneapolis, were charged with "conspiracy to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization." Nur was also charged with providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Minnesota said Tuesday.
The two men conspired to join the terror group and travel from Minnesota to the Middle East "to engage in a campaign of terror in support of a violent ideology," U.S. Attorney Luger said in a statement.
Yusuf was stopped at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport as he prepared to board a flight to Turkey, according to the FBI investigation.
Federal officials have identified Minnesota as a center for recruiting for terrorist organizations including ISIS and al-Shabab. The groups have focused in part on recruiting from the large Somali population in the Twin Cities.
According to the criminal complaint and other court documents disclosed Tuesday, Yusuf in April applied for an expedited passport, saying he intended to travel to Turkey. But he couldn't specify his travel plans, hotel, travel companions or address of a friend in Turkey who he claimed to have met recently via Facebook.
Nur left the Twin Cities for Turkey on May 29, also after obtaining an expedited U.S. passport and depositing $1,540 in cash to his checking account. He was scheduled to return to the United States on June 16 but did not.
The complaint and court documents allege Nur became "much more religious," in the two months before leaving for Turkey "including talking about how his family needed to pray more and wear more traditional clothing."
Nur began to talk about jihad during this time, the charges allege. On Facebook, Nur allegedly told someone we "will see each other in the afterlife" and "I'm not coming back."

Photographer Ellen Fisch NYC Exhibit Extended
Photographer Ellen Fisch's exhibition of architectural art photography currently at Jadite Galleries in the heart of midtown NYC is being extended by popular demand. The reaction to the photography has been overwhelmingly positive. According to one journalist, Fisch has created a "Dream World" through her enhanced imagery of Brooklyn's Park Slope/ Prospect Park. Others viewing the images have referred to the photographs as "hauntingly beautiful" and "reminiscent of Atget." "The inclusion of drawing and 24K gold has created some unique and wonderful effects in the photographs," says Fisch.
Brooklyn's well known Park Slope and Prospect Park are currently top NYC real estate areas rivaling locations bordering Manhattan's Central Park. One reason that Brooklyn draws residents may be the elegant town houses dating from the Gilded Age that still remain a symbol of gracious living. "The grandeur of the architecture lining the streets of Park Slope and the natural beauty that Prospect Park lends to the neighborhood creates a wonderland for the artist's imagination," remarks Photographer Ellen Fisch.
These houses and leafy park paths greatly influenced the architectural art photography of Ellen Fisch. "As a child, I visited the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, Prospect Park and other attractions of the community after having lunch at my grandparents' home in Park Slope." The childhood impressions carried throughout most of Fisch's life as she returned again and again to photograph the fine old homes ornamented with metal, wood and glass architectural detail. She also continues to find inspiration and enjoyment from outings to the parks and gardens that liberally dot the historic NYC neighborhood.
With her latest exhibit, Photographer Ellen Fisch has broken new ground in photographic art by enhancing her photographs of Park Slope and Prospect Park with pencil, charcoal, pastel and gold leaf. "The use of subtle additions of traditional fine art media in my photography has heightened the images." The exhibit has been hugely successful and garnered accolades from visitors and a good amount of laudatory press. "I am deeply gratified that so many people appreciate my enhanced photography," says Ellen Fisch. "I am so pleased that Jadite Galleries has extended my 'Park Slope/Prospect Park' exhibition. I create art as a means of self-expression and love this wonderfully positive reaction to my new artform."
About: Ellen Fisch is a New York based architectural art photographer specializing in black and white and sepia photography that is artistically expressive, historically relevant and timeless. Fisch has recently begun to explore using traditional fine art media to enhance her photography.

LINTON, Ind. – A recent college graduate with deep political roots has been chosen to lead the Linton City Council.
Jathan Wright, 24, is believed to be the youngest council president in city history, the Greene County Daily World reported (http://bit.ly/1amsv0V ).
Wright is no stranger to local politics. He is beginning his third year on the council, and his late grandfather, Jimmie K. Wright, served as the city's mayor for two decades.
Jathan Wright also has served as president of the Greene County Solid Waste Management Board and as the 8th District Chairman of the Young Democrats organization.
Wright, who works in tech support at Logic Key Inc. and has a degree in political science from Indiana State University, said he's looking forward to his new role.
"It's a big honor that they (the council) have entrusted me with leading the council this year," he said. "It's a good group to work with. Everybody gets along great and we are trying to work together to try and make a difference in this community."
He said the biggest thing he's learned on the council is "how tight the budgets really are" due to statewide property tax caps and other measures. A proposal by Gov. Mike Pence to reduce or eliminate a tax on business property could make things more difficult, he said.
"With what the governor is proposing, it's going to get even tighter. That's the scary part," Wright said.
Wright said he wishes his grandfather, who died in 2007, could see his work but is confident he would be proud.
"I wish he was here to see it, but he's still watching," he said.
