Hello Race Fans,
We have two regattas coming up.
1st Regatta is the unsanctioned Great Western Challenge. This one is scheduled for best ice in Minnesota on the first weekend in December. December 5th, 6th, & 7th. Friday is always the best day and, as always, never and entry fee. Very informal. We do ask that you become a member of the IDNIYRA to help promote the sport of iceboating.
2nd Regatta is the 2014 IDNIYRA Western Regional Regatta. Mike Miller, from Minnesota, is the Western Regional Rear Commodore and you can expect updates for that regatta to also appear on this site. We tried to get it in last season, but we had too much shell ice on Green Lake to get it done. The 2014 IDNIYRA Western Regional Regatta is currently scheduled for December 13th and 14th.
In Review:
Fun Informal Great Western Challenge with special guests from our European tribe -- December 5th, 6th and 7th.
Official IDNIYRA Western Regional Regatta -- December 13th & 14th.
Think Ice!
A total of 8 boats sailed Lake Christina today and judging by all the end of the day smiles the trip north was worth it. We all sailed last week either on Christina or Swede lake so the first time jitters were long gone. The focus today was racing.
We sailed numerous 2 lap scrub races in light to med winds on a huge race course that some estimate to be nearly two miles long. Not surprising, JD and the Doctor ruled the day. The rest of us just tried to finish in the same time zone as the leaders.
Has anyone been over to look at Whale Tail lake? I don't have time to run up to Lake Christina this weekend and would like to sail somewhere close to home around Minnetonka and close by. Anyone else up for some sailing Saturday or Sunday around here?
Most of the Tonka DN'ers are heading up to Ashby MN to sail Lake Christina on Saturday November 22, 2014. If you leave by 7:30 you will be sailing by 10:30.
JD predicts a "Top 10" day. Big smooth ice, decent wind and warm weather.
Think Ice!
Do we have a report for Lake Buffalo this week? I heard it was frozen last week . My guess would be that there is plenty of ice on it by now.
Saturday looks like the best day. Saturday morning at Sturges Park?
Minnesota's Ice is ready!
Minnesota has been blessed with its earliest ice in years. At least 10 DN's have sailed this weekend at both Lake Christina and a small pond, Swede Lake. Both were sailable ice and thick enough. Lake Buffalo is frozen, unsailed and now has an inch of blown crusty snow from last night. A few other lakes will freeze this week with cold weather predicted. Heavy winds are forecast across MN for next two days as well.
I have consulted with a number of DN racers about calling on the 2014 Western Regional for this next weekend, Nov 22-23.
The Commodore and others will be at Swede Lake today arriving around 10 am. The lake doe have some snow on it.
Who knows, could be a perfect day to dust off your plate runners.
You will be hard pressed to recall an iceboat season that started as early as November 15. But mark this date on your calendar. Today, Tonka sailors ventured up to Lake Christina in Ashby MN and enjoyed a rare early start to the season. Congrats to the Doctor for being the first to rip across the lake!
The ice is over 6" thick and rated about a 7. It was a perfect day to clear out the cobwebs and put a few scrub races under our belts.
Several of us are heading to Mile Marker 8, Lake Christina, in Ashby MN. We leave Saturday (11/15/14) at 7:15 a.m. We will be home by dark.
Lake Christina has not been sailed. We do not know if the ice is safe. The ice has not been checked.
Check the ice before you sail. DO not sail alone. Carry ice picks or bear claws.
Harlan reports in from mile mark 26 of Christina at 8:30 AM Friday!
100 yards out, 4 to 4 1/2" of solid ice. Temp at zero and mostly calm and sunny. He walked over a some small chunks of refrozen ice as it was windy when it froze on Tuesday night. No duck holes can be seen. A very light dust of snow, almost like a hoar frost covers the entire lake.
Pelican, where he lives has less ice. He did not walk it. It had some open spots on Thursday, but are likely froze over last night.
If Flyer602 were here (intead of in Texas!) he would swear we should be sailing Christina this weekend?
Does anyone know anything about the ice up north.
Nite #246. Fast Orange. For sale by original owner. Boat is in very good condition. Two sets of runners with the newer set in excellent condition. Newer North sail, also in excellent condition. Cockpit cover, snap in seat cushion, everything you need to go sailing. Located near Minneapolis. $3800.
Rob Evans (612) 275-6010.
Dammm , and I'm still in Tx. but we are starting an E fleet, Black Tie for E's anyone this spring after iceboating? meyer
The 2014 Western Region Regatta is scheduled for Dec 13-14, 2014. This follows the prior weekends Great Western Challenge, scheduled on Dec 5-7 for the best ice in Minnesota.
The 48 racers who registered and paid for the attempt last January at Green Lake, Wi will be pre-registered.
With the next 10 days weather forecast, ice will soon be made in many locations.
Use this site for posting Minnesota ice conditions.
Official notices for the DN Western Regionals will be posted on the DN forum website.

Brackbill views Startup Harrisburg as a way to help improve the financial situation in the city.
Op Ed: A legacy upheld: Why we honor those who served
By President Tom Foley, Mt Aloysius College
Almost 75 years ago, my Irish grandmother, Nellie Loftus Foley, sent three of her four sons off to fight in what President Roosevelt called the "War for the Four Freedoms." My father, the baby of the family, recalls that it was not an easy parting for my grandmother.
My uncles' letters home – which my father passed on to me a few years ago – gave more evidence of that. Her sons wrote to her with reassurances and with pride, and clearly hoped that their optimism and their clear sense of duty and of mission would ease her sorrow, and her fear about what might happen to them.

Billings urges Inter-Lakes board to put money away for capital improvements
MEREDITH — The Inter-Lakes School Board is being urged to commit itself to recommend putting money every year into a capital reserve fund to help soften the impact large-ticket expenditures can have on the district's budget and taxes paid by district residents.
Board member Mark Billings advised such a course of action during Tuesday evening's School Board meeting.
Billings, of Meredith, noted that the district is facing three capital improvement projects which are especially costly. One is a four-year phased replacement of the roof of Inter-Lakes Elementary School, which has a price tag estimated at $600,000. The second is repaving of a road used by school buses at the elementary school, as well as repairs and resealing of high school parking lot, at an expected cost of $145,000. The third is a proposal to spend $120,000 to replace the seats in the Inter-Lakes Community Auditorium at the high school.
Billings said that the district is putting more effort into planning further ahead for capital projects. He said district administrators are currently working on a 10-year capital improvement plan.
He said that putting $75,000 a year into a capital reserve account would help to prevent budget spikes that could otherwise occur due to big-ticket capital projects. Placing money in a capital reserve account requires approval of voters at the annual School District Meeting.
"Our first commitment is to our people," Billings noted. "But we have $20 million worth of facilities and the more we focus on maintaining and preserving our facilities we will save money in the long term."
NOTES: The board gave initial approval to district policies dealing with summer activities, safe-school measures, and advance placement courses. While there were little discussion on any of the policies, board member Carol Baggaley raised concern with a provision of the advance course policy that would allow a student to take an advance placement course regardless of that student's grades in the subject and whether the student satisfied the prerequisites for the course. Superintendent Mary Ellen Ormond said while teachers and school counselors have an important role in advising students what courses they should take, that if a student's parents wanted their child in a certain course then the school should defer to the parents' wishes. But Baggaley felt that was unfair to high-achieving students in advance placement courses. Ormond noted that Tuesday's vote was on a first reading of the policy and that the policy could be amended before being presented to the board for a second reading. The board must approve a policy twice before it is adopted. . . . . . The board voted to accept $3,300 in donations to support the Inter-Lakes Middle Tier and High School Theater Companies. The donations came from Meredith Village Savings Bank, Meredith Dental, Dr. Edward DeTolla, and the Inter-Lakes PTO. The board also voted to accept a $1,167 donations from the New Hampshire Electric Co-op Foundation to help pay for sixth graders at Sandwich Central School to visit four power plants in the state.

Fire Lt. Jay Ellingson said none of the injuries were life-threatening. One adult refused transport.
Police closed Union Avenue and rerouted traffic around the area.
Police Capt. Matt Canfield said it initially appears that a car coming down High Street tried to make a left onto Union Avenue and collided with a car headed east on Union Ave. The crash sent one of the cars into a minivan that was headed west on Union Avenue.
Taking a left turn from High Street is difficult because there is not much visibility beyond the downward slope on the western portion of Union Avenue. Also, when a car comes up Union Avenue headed east, it's hard to know what lies beyond the crest of the hill.
Ellingson said all three of Laconia's ambulances and one from Gilford were needed to transport the victims. He said Stewart's Ambulance covered Laconia during the transport.
Canfield said the accident is under investigation.

Tamworth man charged with armed robbery of $396 from Lakeport market
LACONIA — A Tamworth man accused of an armed robbery at a Lakeport convenience store has been held on $50,000 cash bail after appearing in the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division yesterday.
Affidavits obtained from court yesterday said Joseph W. Desbien, 41, of Union Hall Road #1 was initially arrested Tuesday at 8:20 p.m. in an apartment on Union Avenue because he was wanted on an open warrant for possession of heroin.
Police said they learned Desbien was at the apartment and during his subsequent interrogation admitted he robbed the store.
Complaints said Desbien entered the P&P Market at 3:57 p.m. on Sunday and threatened the clerk with a knife. He allegedly robbed her of $396.62 from the cash drawer and is charged with one count of armed robbery.
A probable cause hearing is scheduled for both cases for later this month.

Change of use from church to pub gains approval from planning board
LACONIA — A plan to convert the former Evangelical Baptist Church at Veterans Square into a pub and restaurant took a step forward Tuesday night when the Planning Board granted conditional approval of a request from David and Maureen Kennedy of Hampton for a change of use of the building from a place of worship to an eating and drinking establishment.
Kennedy, who is close to finalizing the purchase of the building, is working on plans which will see a dining room established on the upper level of the building and a cafe which will serve as a hub for small ''faux shops'' selling baked goods and Irish-themed articles on the lower level.
The restaurant will be the Kennedy's second, both housed in churches. The Holy Grail Restaurant and Pub in what what was St. Joseph's Church on Main Street in Epping has twice been chosen as the state's finest Irish pub by New Hampshire Magazine.
He plans to add a second story to a triangular addition at the rear of the church building for the kitchen, offices, utilities and storage.
Because the building occupies the entire lot, he is faced with reaching agreement with abutting property owners on access issues such as a walkway from the city parking lot at the rear of the property and perhaps a shared dumpster.
Members of the Planning Board were sympathetic to the problems faced by Kennedy, who told the board that he has not yet reached any formalized agreement with his neighbors and that the site plan he is developing will be influenced by the agreements he reaches.
At least two abutters, the Laconia Congregational Church and Kevin Campbell, said they were willing to work with him.
Linda Tunnicliffe and John Walker of the church said that the church is constructing a brick walkway as part of its Community Way Project which will link the church and its parish house with a second floor covered elevator and bridge. The parish house is located next to the former Evangelical Baptist Church and extending the walkway in that direction is seen as a way of helping provide access to the new restaurant from the municipal parking lot used by the Downtown Farmers Market on Thursday nights.
''It would be the right solution for everyone,'' said Tunicliffe as she showed drawings of what the completed project will look like and said that the new restaurant would be ''a beautiful addition to downtown.''
Kennedy said that he was trying to work out an agreement with other restaurants in the area which might involve a shared dumpster.
He has also agreed to pay half of the cost, $35,000, of bringing a new 10-inch water line to the lot which will allow him to install a sprinkler system in the building and the City Council recently agreed to pay half of the cost, up to $35,000 using funds from the Downtown TIFF District account, for the water line.
The planning board has also agreed to waive the development impact fee of $6,900 for the restaurant due to the capital outlay it is making for the water line project.
Keith Hall of Kramer and Hall Goldsmiths, which is located across the square at the Laconia Railroad Station, said that he is concerned that the private parking spaces next to his business will end up being used by customers of the new restaurant and hoped that signs will be put up to indicate that they are not public parking spaces. He also said that he believes a rear entryway into the new restaurant would be desirable.
Planning Board Chairman Warren Hutchins said that the completed site plan will have a number of conditions to deal with, including parking and walking improvements, as well as lighting and compatibility of the architecture of the second floor addition with existing architecture in the downtown area and a possible entryway at the rear of the building.
John Moriarty of the Main Street Initiative reminded Planning Board members that the 34-lot municipal parking lot which will be used for parking and the dumpsters was created by a special assessment on downtown businesses in 1985 and that it should be borne in mind that it was intended to serve all of the surrounding businesses.
With that said, Moriarty said to Kennedy ''we really welcome you to the city and want this project to be successful.''
City Planning Director Shanna Saunders said that "the project has been fast tracked by the city and that Kennedy hopes to have the business up and running by next summer.

In ireland people didnt use middle names the way we do. They used them as james ben robert. In other word the middle names were the fathers name Why does that matter well in canada they didnt use the first names but the middle names. So i had a neil dever who I swore I found in two records but the fathers name was wrong patrick and then james Well it turns out his dads name was patrick james.
They came thru canada and in doing so patrick became james. So when they came here they were used to james. So neil used james. then after a while they caught on and went back to patrick. This can cause you great consternation as it did me. I heard this in a lecture at the new england genealogical historical event in randolph mass a while back.
hope this helps you find them

Proposed Apple Store in Santa Monica features giant curved glass ceilingApple is expected to propose a major new retail store in Santa Monica that would feature a large curved glass roof allowing the California sun to illuminate the shopping space.
The plans make no specific mention of Apple, referring only to "the applicant," but the designs clearly show the traditional minimalist layout of an Apple Store inside. The proposed building, first discovered by Curbed (via MacRumors), would be 8,084 square feet.
Located on the Third Street Promenade, the shop would replace an existing three-story building that was home to a Borders Bookstore. The 34-foot-high store would feature a transparent glass ceiling, allowing shoppers to see the sky above.
The illustrations for the project were revealed in a Santa Monica Planning Commission meeting agenda. That meeting is set to take place tonight.
The applicant for the project is listed as ASB/Blatteis Promenade Holdings, who purchased the property in September of 2010. The design for the project must receive approval from the city's Architectural Review Board.
The proposal also reveals the unnamed applicant will encourage its employees to use alternative transportation to get to work, offering a $100-per-month transit subsidy toward public transportation fares, as well as a $20-per-month bicycle reimbursement. Bicycle parking has also been proposed for inclusion at the facility's basement level.
The curved glass roof at the proposed store is similar to one already found at the Apple Store in New York's Upper West Side, which opened in 2009. That storefront is also taller, at 54 feet, versus the 34-foot height proposed in Santa Monica.
Curved glass is also a central component of Apple's so-called "spaceship" corporate headquarters, given that moniker because the proposed facility would have a massive circular shape. That structure, awaiting approval from the Cupertino, Calif., city council, would use curved glass all the way around its exterior.
"There's not a straight piece of glass in this building," Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs said in a presentation to the city council in June. "We've used our experience in building retail buildings all over the world. We know how to make the biggest pieces of glass for architectural use."

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Presented byKirsty Young
The castaway in Desert Island Discs this week is the jockey Peter Scudamore. The son of a jockey who had won the Grand National and the Cheltenham Gold Cup - Scu, as he is known throughout the racing fraternity - resisted all attempts to turn him into an estate agent, and followed in his father's footsteps. Having broken nearly every bone in his body, he retired in 1993 after a career which encompassed 1,678 National Hunt victories and the title of Champion Jockey a record eight times. He'll be talking to Sue Lawley about jockeys, jumping and his new career, journalism.

Creative Aurvana Live! Headphones
" A legendary value performer The Creative Aurvana Live! (CAL! for short) has a strong reputation for being an excellent choice for beginning headphone hobbyists and an amazingly good sounding headphone for under $100. I found myself with some spare cash, and was after some new headphones after selling my Denon D2000, and thought it would be fun to try the CALs, since they..." --HeretixAevum
Creative Aurvana Live! 2 Headset with 40mm Drivers and In-Line Mic
"Sound Quality Straight out of the box, it sounded great, pretty much like the original CAL!. I've done over 100 hours of burn-in. DAC is FiiO E10. As I mentioned in one of the posts, it reminded me a lot of Sennheiser HD 25-1-II. This can be a headphone for people who really appreciate bass (bassheads included). Is this a neutral can? No, but it is definitely a fun can with a..." --kingpage
Creative Aurvana In-Ear3
"I recently broke down bought the creative aurvana 3 iems from micro center for $87 after tax. If you love the sound of a smooth mid centric iem with neutral bass and non fatigue on the highs, these are the best deal I have come across. I have always been a mids lover but now I'm really a mids head. I have had experience with many dual armature iems I own Both the sony xba2 and the ue700. To my..." --drockmalone

Creative Aurvana 2 In-Ear Headphones
" Comfort and Fit: This pair is very comfortable in the sense that their presence in your ears won't be very noticeable. I fell asleep a few times while listening to music through these earphones, so thats all I can say about them. For fit however, I had to use the largest size of earbuds to fit it into my ears.

Creative Labs 51MZ0310AA005 HS-800 Fatal1ty Gaming Headset (Black)
" While a little put off by the branding (I personally think Fatal1ty is a tool), I've always been a Creative Labs fan and took a shot on this headset. I have been richly rewarded. My headset gets an average 8-9 hours of use a day in the winter months, and 3-4 during the rest of the year. They have performed flawlessly, with rich sound and surprising durablity. ..." --Marcain
Creative Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Sigma USB Gaming Headset
" No other headphone has surprised me in the manner that the Tactic 3D managed to. I originally purchased them because I needed headphones to do a Skype interview, and I wanted something kind of ridiculous and flashy, because I was going to be on video. The Tactic 3D seem like a perfect choice, with flashing LEDs on each ear cup. When I first hooked it up, I..." --imagic
Technical Pro HPT990 Professional Headphone
" Expanding on the pros, other likes- - These cans are pretty comfortable imo, with the velour pads and soft headband. I havent had any problems with pressure points on the headband, and have been able to wear them for several hours on end without much fatigue. Clamping force is just right. Tighter than, for example, a Creative Aurvana Live, but looser than my FA-011s. Fairly light weight. -..." --kidcharlemagne
Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset
" I wouldn't say these are the best things in the world, but they do work for gaming and they do their job well. I manage to keep with a 2.0 kill/death score at all times in any FPS game I play even though they are running through Realtek HD audio. For $30, they one of the best. Most would mistake these as worse than Gamecom 367, but they are actually better with more filled bass then the..." --eriktheg
Creative Labs HITZ MA2600 Headset White

Mission Viejo reaches 1A final
February, 28, 2012
By Tim Haddock | ESPNLosAngeles.com
MISSION VIEJO -- Michael Cramer scored 17 of his game-high 20 points in the second half for Mission Viejo and sparked a third-quarter surge to oust Crescenta Valley, 65-60, in the semifinals of the CIF-Southern Section Division 1A playoffs on Tuesday night.
Cramer was instrumental in Mission Viejo's little third-quarter run that separated the two teams in a closely contested game.
Mission Viejo (27-3), ranked No. 17 by ESPN Los Angeles, outscored Crescenta Valley, 8-0, early in the third quarter and turned a one-point, halftime lead into a seven-point advantage. Cramer scored six of his team's eight points in that run and Mission Viejo built a lead it would not surrender.
[+] Enlarge
Tim Haddock/For ESPNLA.comMission Viejo's Michael Cramer (2) had a big second half to lift the Diablos over Crescenta Valley.
Crescenta Valley (26-5) jumped out to the early lead, 22-15, in the first quarter. But Mission Viejo rallied to take a 29-26 lead near the end of the second period.
Dylan Kilgour hit a pair of 3-pointers just before halftime to give Crescenta Valley a one-point lead, 32-31. But Mission Viejo's Max Redfield scored a basket at the end of the first half for a 33-32 lead.
"It's a credit to our guys' toughness and ability to play through adversity," Crescenta Valley coach Shawn Zarganian said. "That's what these guys are about."
Crescenta Valley opened the second half with a 6-2 run to take a 38-35 lead. That's when Mission Viejo started to break away.
Cramer converted two free throws to give his team a one-point lead, 39-38. Evan Zeller made it 41-38 with a basket. Then Cramer pushed the lead to 45-38 with a basket and a pair of free throws.

I've been thinking about a question, sparked by a new doula friend. A huge part of my job is helping mamas to protect their bodily autonomy – that they make the decisions about what happens to their bodies with genuinely informed consent – and genital integrity – specifically, avoiding episiotomy unless medically indicated and minimising the chance of tearing during birth by following physical cues for positioning and pushing, 'breathing the baby down', or perineal support, for example. I hear things like 'I don't want to be cut unless it's an emergency' or 'I want my vagina or vulva to be the same afterwards' or 'I'm afraid that I will tear and it will hurt' or 'I tore last time and it was very painful and took time to heal: how can I avoid that this time?' Imagine helping a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) mama birth a nearly ten pound baby over an intact perineum. Think of seeing a mama who had had a huge episiotomy (to which she had not consented) that extended to a fourth degree tear with complications, birth her second sweet baby with no tearing at all. It's incredible. I say, 'Trust your body. Your body is not broken. Your body was perfectly designed to birth this baby. You will open and stretch. Trust your body. Your body is perfect.' These are some of the mantras of doula-assisted birth. Again: women want me to help them guard their own bodily autonomy and genital integrity. And I am very, very happy to do so.
How do I hold this role in my mind with some parents' decision to circumcise baby boys, breaching their bodily autonomy and genital integrity? Recently I have come to the conclusion that I can't hold both things in my mind at the same time. I hear in my head the same requests and questions above, this time in the voice of a baby boy: 'Please don't cut me unless it's an emergency…Please let me decide…Please let my penis be the same as it is now…Please don't hurt me.' In a whisper, so that parents cannot hear, I have told brand new baby boys 'You are perfect, and whole, and your body is not broken.' And I have said 'I'm so so sorry, I tried my best.' Someone might tell me to mind my own business, that's it's not my decision or my place to apologise. To this I can only say: it is this one baby boy's penis. He has the right to bodily autonomy and genital integrity. Just as his mama does.
Consequently I've decided not to offer doula services to mamas who are carrying boys and choose to circumcise. I understand that (male) infant circumcision is seen as a legal right* and a cultural norm in much of the United States. I know that there are a number of spurious health claims about circumcision, myths about cleanliness and frankly offensive ideas about the aesthetics of the intact penis. I believe, most of the time, that parents who choose to circumcise make their decisions out of love and with the best information they have at that time. I recognise that for at least two religions it is an important rite.** But for myself, for my own mental and spiritual well-being, I can no longer reconcile working so hard to help mamas have a gentle birth, a 'gentle welcome' into motherhood, and leave knowing that I have failed to secure a 'gentle welcome' for a baby into life just because he is a boy, born in a country where routine infant male circumcision is normal and often unquestioned. It is true that this decision may cost me clients: in fact, it already has. But I think that is an easier cost to live with.
If you want to learn more about circumcision, why it's done and why it's important to leave all babies, boy or girl, intact, these are some great resources:
* Technically, the Fourteenth Amendment means that laws forbidding female circumcision apply to males too.
** For Jewish people, as part of the Covenant; for Muslims, as a cultural expression rather than a requirement of the Quran.

Glyndebourne Young Composer in Residence 2015-2017
Glyndebourne's Young Composer in Residence is a part-time residency for an emerging composer. In January 2015 our next young composer will begin their new residency, and during the next three years they will have a range of opportunities to:
- immerse themselves in the work of an opera house
- investigate different approaches to the creation of new opera and music theatre through engagement with the historical forms of opera
- observe the development of the creation of new work
- involve themselves in the broader artistic, learning and audience development activities of a professional opera company
- create new work in opera and music theatre through a number of projects, through development workshops and/or performance
- have the opportunity to go and see new work
Luke Styles
From 2012 - 2014 Australian composer Luke Styles was Glyndebourne's Young Composer in Residence. During this time he composed a variety of works, and contributed entries to his blog 'Resident Styles'.
During his residency Luke was given the opportunity to create quite a few works which were also performed:
Tycho's Dream: An hour long stage work for Glyndebourne Youth Opera
Vanity: A piece for violin, solo tenor, bass and female choir called Vanity performed during the 2013 Festival
Wakening Shadow: An hour long chamber opera born out of three of Britten's Canticles (Abraham and Isaac, Journey of the Magi, The Death of Saint Narcissus). These Britten Canticles were orchestrated for large ensemble and contextualised with new music. Gallery of Images
Lovers Walk: A piece for young singers (from Glyndebourne Youth Opera and Glyndebourne Young Voices Youth Company), imagining four sets of couples from different points in history and facing different challenges but linked by a common setting – a municipal park.
Luke also led a composition project for Glyndebourne's Education department in partnership with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. 12 students from East Sussex Academy of Music in Lewes and Bishop Thomas Grant School in Lambeth, created work for their Music A2 Level exams, inspired by the new production of Janáček's The Cunning Little Vixen in the Glyndebourne Festival 2012.
For any questions regarding this, or any other Glyndebourne Education project please contact us any time.

Talk Title: "The Art and the Science of Compu
ting Services"
Talk Abstract:
Over the past decade or mor
e, we have witnessed the emergence of several new computing technologies a
nd products. Yet the tasks of designing and managing information technology
(IT) systems that meet business demands remain challenging. This is becaus
e, in most cases, there is a significant gap between the business require
ments and the capabilities of products. Further, because of the inherent c
omplexity of IT environments, determining the specific combination of tech
nologies and products to use (the what), under what circumstances (the whe
n), and the benefits (the why) have proved to be difficult. Today, IT ser
vice providers fill the gap between "solutions" and "tech
nology products"; however, this exercise is highly labor-intensive
and relies heavily on intuition and experience. In this talk, I will first
discuss what are IT services and what makes them difficult, and then desc
ribe the methodologies and tools required to covert this art-form to system
atic engineering and science.

Wilkinsburg finds motivation to win
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Michael Fulmore had something up his sleeve, bringing in a blast from the past to training camp in order to display the rich history of Wilkinsburg football.
He welcomed former Pitt star and NFL player Darnell Dinkins to speak to his 2013 Tigers, hoping to motivate the group into regaining the form of past championship-caliber teams and grow them into men.
"I have the best job in the world," Fulmore said. "I help young guys develop into men. I see it as an opportunity to see what they are capable of, and I'm excited to see that."
Wilkinsburg went 3-6 overall and 2-6 in the Class A Eastern Conference last season.
The Tigers finished strong, winning three of their final four games to give Fulmore and the rest of the Wilkinsburg football staff hope for success this season.
"We finished the season with a big win over Avonworth," Fulmore said. "I'm really excited to see if my team holds it to that standard this season."
Fulmore, who also will be taking on the athletic director duties at Wilkinsburg, hopes to see a lot of the close losses from last season turn into wins this year.
"We were in some pretty close games at home," he said. "... I really am optimistic about this year, and I think we can win some of the close games."

"Nameless""Nameless"© Gothic_AmethystSilent, clear, nameless tears.Raining like shards of glass.I am cautious to come close,yet curious enough to reach out and touch.The pain is searing. I am bleeding.Agony flows throughout my body.Darkness now, engulfing me in flames.What does it mean? Why can't I see it?I feel it on my skin, I see it on the ground,yet when I look up...it is gone.
"Torn"© Gothic_AmethystI feel my heart being torn apart.Slowly, painfully, day by day.The savage teeth are slicing my soul;Strangling my inner voice.This war is always raging; neverending for me.I have no weapons for fighting back,only my insanity.I want to break free, be me, Show the world who I am .I feel like I am dieing inside,ripped apart and torn at the seams.There is an emptyness I cannot bear,searching for a freedom I cannot find...Hoping for a change to begin.

If you live in the Salt Lake Valley, be forewarned that the hot toy that's going to show up here is an emergency shipping box that arrives on the doorstep sent from the North Pole by Santa Claus himself with a letter from him on the box and everything. Inside is one of a collection of funny misfit toys the elves accidentally made with a mistake and hid inside a "Santa Clauset". There's also a storybook about the misfit toys in it called "Santa Clauset" and its authored by Santa Claus! I saw them at a Christmas show at the Sandy Expo Center, and women were buying them like crazy. Cutest Santa idea ever.
