Recap of the PDN's 30: Strategies for Young Working Photogs Panel at SVA
Posted by Conor Risch on Friday April 12, 2013 | Events, Fashion, Fine Art, Uncategorized

During this week's PDN's 30 panel discussion at the School of Visual Arts Theatre, perseverance, personality and community emerged as common themes in the early careers of 2013 PDN's 30 photographers Geordie Wood, Lisa Elmaleh and Bon Duke.
PDN editor Holly Stuart Hughes moderated the panel, which also included Readers Digest photo director Rebecca Simpson Steele and Sony Artisan of Imagery Brian Smith.
Wood, an editorial photographer who is also the photo editor at the Fader, said that he chose to assist rather than working an unrelated day job while he was starting out as a way to stay in the photo community. He also emphasized the importance to his career of a group of fellow photographers who share information, introduce one another to clients and exchange ideas in person and online. "Photography," he said, "is much more fun as a team sport."
When the bottom dropped out of the economy right after she graduated from SVA and she found herself out of work, Elmaleh, a fine-art photographer and teacher who works with alternative processes, asked friends in the photo community for leads and found work teaching carbon printing at the Center for Alternative Photography. She also assisted photographers Joni Sternbach and Mitch Epstein, before beginning to teach classes at SVA. "We really have to cobble it together," Elmaleh said of making a living as a fine-art photographer.
Internships with magazines and production companies, and connections to fellow SVA student working in design or cinematography helped Duke, who does editorial and commercial fashion work and films, learn about different aspects of the creative business and make connections. Talking with design students, for instance, helped him understand how his images would work with text in layouts for ads or editorial pages. He also pointed out that students studying other creative disciplines go on to become art directors.
Duke also emphasized that learning how to communicate with creatives in a collaborative way so he could stick up for what he wanted creatively was an important step. Duke says that, on set, he is nice to everyone and "treats everyone as equals."
Elmaleh's work has been supported by several grants, and she underlined the importance of perseverance in applying for funding. She said she's never gotten a grant the first time she applied for it, and suggested several resources for grant-seekers (see the list at the bottom of this post).
On the subject of perseverance, Smith, a veteran celebrity portraitist who began his career shooting news and sports, argued that careers are built not through one big break, but a series of smaller breaks.
And Wood pointed out that working hard to shoot new images, and to promote that work to editors and online audiences, have been important elements of his early career.
Offering a client perspective, Rebecca Simpson Steele spoke about sometimes following the work of photographers for long periods of time before finding a job for which they are a good match. "I pay attention to photographers when they don't know I'm watching," Simpson Steele said.

Note: The next PDN's 30 panel takes place the evening of April 25 at Santa Monica College, Humanities & Social Sciences Building, 1900 Pico Boulevard, Santa Monica, CA. The panel will include Brian Smith, Jessica Sample, Michael Friberg and Ian Allen.

• jury-rig •
Pronunciation: jU-ri-rig • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb, transitive
Meaning: To improvise a temporary repair or substitute, to cobble together something from unlikely parts. (Jury-rigging in the sense of jury tampering is quite a different matter, a rather illegal one.)
Notes: Today's word is a compound verb, a form less prevalent than compound nouns and adjectives, but still a regular tool for creating new words (see also freeze-dry, vacuum-pack, field-test). Under the influence of jerry-build "make shoddily", some speakers are already converting today's word into jerry-rig. This process is called folk etymology, replacing a part of a word that makes no sense with a word that does (more or less).
In Play: Whenever you create something out of materials normally not used in making it, you are jury-rigging in today's sense of the word: "Thousands of Russian farmers jury-rigged satellite antennas out of scrap wood and chicken wire to watch Miss Russia in the Miss Universe Pageant." Yes, I just made that one up. Here is another I made up: "When Feldstein's dog lost his leg in a car accident, Feldstein jury-rigged a wooden leg on casters that works pretty well."
Word History: Today's Good Word was a gift of the British Navy centuries ago. It most probably came from the Old French word ajurie "help, assistance" from the verb aider "help, aid" (also the origin of the distress signal May Day). The original jury-rigging was a jury-mast, a temporary mast erected on a sailing ship when the original mast had broken. Old French aider came from Latin adiuvare "to help", made up of ad "to(ward)" + iuvare "to help". (No, Lew Jury is not the eponym of this word; Lew just suggested we run it in the Good Word series.)

Cueeva Butterly, 31 years old Irish woman has been impressed by the martydom of Furkan Dogan during the armed attack by Israel soldiers to the Mavi Marmara and converted to Islam in Kayseri, Turkey.
Butterly who stayed in Palestine previously and worked together with the aid volunteers, explained that she was deeply impressed by the martyrdom of Ali Haydar and Cevdet as well as Furkan and expressed her feelings saying; "There are many people who were martyred in Palestine and the Arabic World. All these impressed me deeply. Furkan had a goal and he died a martyr for the sake of that goal. There are mainly young children who died as martyrs in Palestine. I wish I were in the place of Furkan."
Batterly also expresses that she is glad as she becomes a Muslim now and has taken the name of Ayse after the conversion.

I am a true lover of shopping. Not just spending money, although that's fun too. But, I am completely happy "just looking" in a mall filled to the brim with fashion, beauty products, shoes, and accessories. Even without buying a thing. I'm not talking about window shopping. I need to actually feel the merchandise and check out its quality. And not just plus size stores either; I make my way into any retail space. Until a few weeks ago.
I was at a Los Angeles area shopping mall and was stopped dead in my tracks before I even stepped foot into this high end boutique. It's like I just froze. I couldn't walk in.
Maybe it was the sales associates who eyed me up and down as I peered into the store. I know I haven't felt this way since I was a teen. I was visiting my uncle who worked at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills. There was this sense of knowing that you just don't belong in there. I have always prided myself of being a confident curvy woman. But, how could I be intimidated? What was I worried about? Not being able to afford anything in there or just the fact that I don't fit into their clothes?
Then I started to think. Maybe I'm just worried about being judged by those in the store. Whether it was the discriminating sales associates or the platinum credit card carrying customer, no one wants to be judged. But, after all these years of curvy shopping…why now? Am I the only one who has felt this way?
I haven't been back since, but I know that the only way to get over it is to just walk in and act like I own the place. I'm not going to let this "shopping while fat" get to me. I have as much right as anyone else to be in that store. Maybe my confidence did take a little dip that day, for whatever reason. But, I know in my heart that I can't I let someone elses prejudices stop me from being who I am.
Remember to "Stay curvaliscious, confident, and courageous."

Kendra Wilkinson & Holly Madison in Bikinis
Kendra Wilkinson and Holly Madison hosted a pool party at Wet Republic in Vegas on Saturday, and it's nice to see Kendra return to (partially) serving the purpose Hugh Hefner created her for. Seriously, she's been practically walking around in a beekeeper outfit these days, and I'm pretty sure Hugh didn't grow her in a lab just to hear her thoughts on child-rearing. Which reminds me, why didn't he sterilize these things during the bleaching process? Or is building an Aryan army of big-titted sex slaves already pushing the limits of playing God? Because I could see that being the case. if you like to half-ass shit. C'mon!

Adam Lazarre-White Lecture and Film
April 11, 2013
Theatre presents
Actor, writer, director, and his new film for Spiritclips, "200 Years."
*Cancelled due to inclement weather.
7:00 p.m.
Alumni House
Adam Lazarre-White shares his insights and experiences in making his new film for Spiritclips, a Hallmark series of original short, heartwarming, family films. "200 Years" is a 5-minute film revealing a story that honors the risks and sacrifices made by generations of Americans in pursuit of freedom, equality, and opportunity.
Lazarre-White has been acting since 1993 in a myriad of roles, including on "Will & Grace", "Grey's Anatomy", "Heroes" and is perhaps best known for starring as "Nathan Hastings" on "The Young & The Restless". He has been on the stage in LA and New York and most recently writing, producing and starring alongside Richard T. Jones in the explosive, controversial indie film, "FORGIVENESS".
While acting, Lazarre-White has written scripts for several shows and wrote Vin Diesel's web-series, "THE ROPES" available with Netflix. He worked with producer Spike Seldin on "The A Team" script.

Do you ever wonder how much memory each application you have open is running? A new jailbreak tweak called AppSwiper by iOS developer David M not only tells you how much memory each running application is using, but also lets you easily close from the from the home screen with a simple swipe up on the application icon.
As shown above, the applications that are running have a blue colored bubble around the application names. The bubble is no fluke... it's intended to let you know exactly what applications you have open. You can swipe up on any application icons that have this blue bubble to bring up the confirmation message that shows you how much of your memory the application is using and give you the option to kill the application to leave it alone.
AppSwiper adds a preferences pane to the Settings application where you can configure the tweak's settings:
You can enable or disable the confirmation message that appears when you swipe up on an application icon. Notably, this will also keep you from seeing the amount of memory that the application is using. In addition, you can pick a color for the bubble that appears under the application icons (blue is the default), and pick an opacity level anywhere from 5-100% in increments of 5. At the bottom of the preferences pane is a switch that you can enable or disable to enable swiping on application icons in the App Switcher to kill the applications.
The colors you have to pick from for the bubble include the following:
- Dark blue (default)
- Light blue
- Red
- Pink
- Black
- Dark green
- Light green
- Yellow
AppSwiper is an interesting way to not only close out of applications when you're finished using them, but also an interesting way to keep track of what applications are using the most of your device's memory. If you want to give AppSwiper a try, it's available in Cydia's BigBoss repositioned for 99¢. If you own Auto App Killer already, then AppSwiper is free for you. Currently, AppSwiper is only for devices running iOS 6.0 or later.
Name: AppSwiper
Price: 99¢
Version: 1.0-1
Requirements: iOS 6.0+
Repo: BigBoss
Developer: David M
Editor's Rating: 4/5

Super-Sized TV Remote
I just bought this for my husband (and myself!), as was so tired of having 4 remote controls to turn on the TV! This Super-Sized TV Remote @brookstone.com has 6 in 1 controls, so now I can discard 3 of our remotes! It's easy to program and would be a fantastic addition to any home.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Product excellent Design matched online example accurate Color was the exact shade of purple we were looking for Staff assistance was prompt and very helpful Would utilize this site again"
"The program's came out great! I had a hard time with the spacing but the design team helped me out and we were so happy with the final product!"
"Just love how easy it was to create our wedding programs and loved how quickly the designer got back with revisions and knew exactly how I needed it to look. Just couldn't be happier."
"The entire process was just amazing! The design team worked with me from beginning to end and helped me customize it 100% to my wedding. The color was absolutely perfect, and the quality was amazing."
"The process was simple. WPD responded to all my questions and the final product was top quality and represented the love we celebrated"

Old and new combine in Tacoma
Ben visits the Rainiers' newly refurbished Cheney Stadium
By Benjamin Hill / MLB.com | August 24, 2012 7:41 AM ET
Yes, that's "Cheeny," enunciated as if one was speaking the last two syllables of "fettucini." So put thoughts of hawkish former vice presidents out of your mind; the name of the historic facility is not pronounced in the same fashion.
But in clearing up that common misunderstanding, I've stumbled into another one. To be certain, Cheney Stadium is historic. But, one could also argue that it is the newest facility in the Pacific Coast League. This contradiction in terms is a result of the $30 million renovation that Cheney Stadium underwent prior to the 2011 season, a thorough public-private partnership facelift in which nearly the entire structure was razed and rebuilt. This renovation was of the rapid-fire variety, conducted over the entirety of the 2010-11 offseason (the Rainiers has to play their 2010 playoff contests at Safeco Field in Seattle in order to accommodate the tight construction schedule).
Farm's Almanac
The Week That Was
Prodigious plating trio
Spokane's Joey Gallo drove in seven Sunday; Conner Crumbliss did it last Thursday, as did Keury De La Cruz.
The Future is now
A strong Futures at Fenway outing by Buffalo's Collin McHugh quickly earned him a nice opportunity.
Coleman in rear view
Billy Hamilton stole four bases Tuesday, the third making him MiLB's all-time, single-season stolen base leader.
On Deck
IL pennant race No. 1
Watch Charlie Shirek and Charlotte try to clinch vs. the PawSox, who will be eyeing the Yanks in Lehigh Valley.
IL pennant race No. 2
Meanwhile, Charlotte will be cheering Jeff Niemann, whose rehab moves to Durham Friday against Norfolk.
Tulsa has Tulo, Giambi
Watch Colorado Rockies Troy Tulowitzki and Jason Giambi rehab with Tulsa from Friday through Sunday.
The accelerated time frame was apropos: upon opening in 1960, Cheney Stadium was dubbed the "100-Day Wonder" because, yes, that's the amount of time it took to build it. Namesake Ben Cheney, a successful Tacoma businessman, spearheaded that particular effort. As the Rainiers explain on their website, "the San Francisco Giants' agreement in the fall of 1959 to relocate their Triple-A club from Phoenix to Tacoma hinged on the city's ability to construct a new stadium in time for the beginning of the 1960 season."
Mission accomplished.
The more things change...:
"The 100-day wonder" lasted a good half-century without undergoing any major improvements. These days, however, improvements are everywhere you look. In fact, one could say that the whole stadium is, in essence, one big improvement over that which existed prior to the 2011 campaign.
Season-ticket holders can now mingle in the third-level Summit Club prior to (and during) the game, which offers a view of Mount Rainier. (Or, at least it sometimes does. On the day in which I was in attendance, heavy cloud cover completely obscured this most majestic of North American peaks).
What had been bleacher seating down the right-field line is now a berm seating area, sponsored by Alaska Airlines and decorated with blinking blue lights meant to simulate those found on an airplane runway. And beyond left field, what was once the visitors' club house is now a secondary ticket office. Adjacent to this is the Home Run Porch, a group picnic area situated at field level.
On and on it goes, and therefore on and on I could go. But it is worth noting that there are elements of Cheney Stadium that remain untouched and help connect the facility as it is now to what it once was. First and foremost, though the seats are new, the grandstand remains. This means that fans still enjoy the steep pitch that had always been a hallmark of the Cheney Stadium experience, which offers unencumbered views of the playing field no matter how tall the gentleman, or lady, in front of you may be (Manute Bol-levels of vertical ascendance notwithstanding).
And though the original wooden blue seats have been swapped out for those possessing a suitably Washingtonian earthy green hue, a small block of the originals still remain. And in one of those seats, located behind home plate and a shade to the right, one finds a statue of Ben Cheney himself. He is depicted with a contented, kindly smile and a bag of peanuts in his hand, and when I went over for a closer look, the usher stationed nearby directed my attention to the concourse pathway just in front of the statue. There, affixed to the concrete, is a bronzed peanut shell.
Also surviving the overhaul are the hulking rectangular light stanchions, which are truly relics of another era. Before being transported to Cheney Stadium, these steel behemoths illuminated the playing field at San Francisco's Seals Stadium (which hosted Pacific Coast League baseball from 1931-57, as well as the San Francisco Giants in their first two seasons of existence).
Just as evocative of the days of yesteryear is the hulking blue batter's eye in center field, located at the now unheard-of distance of 425 feet away from home plate. While giving me a tour of the facility, Rainiers media development manager Ben Spradling noted that only two players have ever hit a ball over the batter's eye during a game: the unlikely duo of Shin-Soo Choo and A.J. Zapp. (When it rains, it pours -- Zapp played for the Rainiers in 2004, and Choo was a member of the 2005 and '06 squads).
But, please, do not fall prey to apocryphal tales regarding the batter's eye prowess of one of the later 20th-century's most memorable (and memorably ridiculous) sluggers.
"There are rumors that Jose Canseco hit one over the batter's eye once," said Spradling. "I'm not sure how that one got started, but it's just not true."

text: I'm considering replacing my ancient Propane based grill with a Methane based Weber. But I'm wondering about the experiences of those of you that have made this switch. Propane molecules are larger and I believe that Propane burns a bit hotter. But Propane in tanks is delivered at a lower pressure than Methane (I think). But if the differences are subtle, I'd probably do it. Your experience in this matter is appreciated.

BRIDGWATER Town manager Richard Fey has expressed his frustration at the spell of wet weather that has left his side without a game for almost seven weeks.
The Robins' game against Shortwood United was called off on Saturday due to a waterlogged pitch and tonight's local derby with Clevedon Town has also been postponed after the weekend's rain left the Fairfax Park pitch unplayable.
Fey said: "It's frustrating because this weather has been going on now for six weeks. We're not the only club to have postponements and its going to be back to playing consecutive mid-week games again, like we had in the first half of the season.
"We're half way through our fixtures and it's come at a bad time for us, without playing this long, as we were on a good run.
"The boys are still working hard in training and can't wait to get back out there."

Women climbing the corporate ladder are often told to find a mentor to help them get ahead in the workplace. But how exactly does one do this?
For some insight, I spoke to Lois Zachary, author of The Mentor's Guide. The book first came out 10 years ago, and her publisher, Jossey-Bass, an imprint of Wiley, has just rereleased an updated edition. She told me:
"Because of our multitasking, time-crunched lives, we often reduce mentoring to transactions, but mentoring is really about a relationship. The mentee has to be an active participant in the process."
Zachary said there are number of concrete steps to take in your search for a mentor.
"The purpose of mentoring is to learn, so women first need to ask themselves: what do I want to learn? Having a mentor is not about getting a promotion, it's about becoming more promotable."
Then, set goals. "Women get so locked into the 'do' that we forget about the 'think'. I spend a lot of time with female entrepreneurs. They're so busy working in the business that they forget to work 'on' the business," she says, adding that men aren't as susceptible to this behaviour. "Women are caretakers; it's harder for us to let go."
Based on your goals, create criteria for your ideal mentor. These can be points such as a sales track record of X, or the ability to meet with you face-to-face, or perhaps you are only looking for another woman as your mentor. Then, use your network to find possible candidates.
Beware of the allure of "good chemistry", she says. "Chemistry is overrated. It's seductive. If you click with someone, you might think, 'They would be a great mentor,' but they might not teach you what you need to learn."
Zachary says the notion that powerful women are less willing to mentor young women is false. (Some female bosses have the reputation of being "queen bees" who distance themselves from other women at the office, and rather than promote junior counterparts, refuse to help them rise through the ranks. The incorrect presumption is that they think: "If I did it without any help, why can't other women?") Zachary adds:
"That's probably a generational difference. I work with women's groups all the time. I find that they are very supportive of one another. The women who are leaving the workforce now understand that it took blood, sweat, and tears for them to get there, and they want to leave the workforce a better place."

The Week in Quotes
November 11-17
"To me, one of his greatest strengths is he can do a lot of things in small spaces. You've got to move your feet in small spaces. Those are things learned over time, but he has this natural timing to how he catches. For me, it's how he's able to stay calm and under control but also work quickly in small spaces."
"It's his aptitude for the game … he sees things in the game at 20 and 21 that most people don't see until they're 25 or 26. It's happened because he's, for lack of a better term, a baseball rat. He's trying to work his pitchers through seven, eight, nine innings. He's got an understanding of what's important in the big picture."
"I think that he embraced the position from an early age. And he's a very good athlete. No matter what position that you play … athleticism is critical. He's got good reactions. That's why he's so good at blocking. He can read the ball, anticipate it."
"When a guy shakes me off, I want to be able to communicate to him and get him to trust me … I think the best advice I've gotten so far is that the wrong pitch with conviction is better than the right pitch without conviction. I always try to think of that. If the pitcher knows his slider is good, then you throw it the best you can. That's always better than, say, a mediocre fastball."
"I hate to anoint a Minor League player anything prior to his time, but there's no reason why he can't play in the big leagues for a long time."
"Whether you expect to win or you don't, just to hear your name called -- it does something to you. I'm not big on individual stats or awards or anything like that, because ultimately I think we play this game to win a World Series. No ifs, ands or buts about that. That's the goal. But any time that you get associated with this award, and you get to be a part of some of the names that come along with the Cy Young Award, it really is pretty special. I definitely don't take that for granted."
"That's the last thing I would worry about, whether it's something he could handle. He's a special pitcher. He's a special kid ... This is the second of many more to come. He's got quite a future ahead of him."
"To actually be named, it is unbelievable. It vindicates everything I've done. I can't say thank you enough to all my teammates for busting their butts every single day and fighting on defense and getting extra runs for me. I think that really helped my candidacy."
"It doesn't affect this moment at all. This is a celebration of what I was able to accomplish and what we were able to accomplish as a team."
"I'm really happy for Max. He had a great season and deserves the Cy Young. I'm hoping this time next year we can say there were three Cy Young winners in the rotation."
"He's ready for this to go past Christmas, into January if necessary. He's been told all along that it could take time for a market to develop for him, and he's fine with that."
"Our focus is on improving our ballclub and we'd like to improve our ballclub by improving our pitching in particular. We could use an outfielder and we could use some help at DH from the left side. That's where our focus is. We're continuing to make progress. We've talked to some agents. We've made some offers to some pitchers and hopefully that will bear some fruit."
"I don't think (we need more than one). I like our internal options a great deal. (Danny) Duffy is going to be a lot better. (Yordano) Ventura has a chance to be dynamic. (Kyle) Zimmer is close… Hoch (Luke Hochevar), Wade Davis and Will Smith can all start and, I think, will have better years going forward in the rotation. We also know those guys can perform very well in the bullpen, too. So I think we have enough depth."
"It's truly Paul's option. He's earned the right to come back if he wants to come back. He's been the most popular player in the last 15 years that we've had. He's only had a handful of at-bats in a Cincinnati uniform, so he's basically a White Sox lifer. He's a terrific teammate. He's our captain. He just has to make a decision whether he wants to come back or not."
—Baseball players in the offseason
"Let them fight it out. We like both of them a lot. I love the competition in Spring Training. Patrick Corbin emerged last year. We didn't say anyone was the frontrunner. He took the bull by the horns. I want C.O. and Didi to be in the same situation. Just because Didi was there all year, I don't want him to think he's the everyday shortstop."
"It's a double-edged sword. Someone looking to win a World Series title next year may not think about the Astros as the first place to go sign. But having said that, we also have an opportunity. Jose Veras signed with us (last year) because he could be the closer. As of right now, we're going into next year with that role in competition. There's a lot of other clubs that don't have that. You can be a starter in our rotation, potentially be an everyday outfielder on our club. You can be the guy."
"The difference to me is that the people who are running baseball teams are really smart now. The group each year gets smarter and smarter. That's the challenge. The other thing is there has been a lot of continuity in these [baseball-operation] positions. There hasn't been as much turnover. As a result, the guys who have had an opportunity to grow in their positions have become very, very good. It's not just the GM. There are a lot of smart front offices that are layered much deeper than they were when I first came in."
"When we signed him to an extension, we considered him as a catcher, and those numbers he was able to get in the extension were based on him being a catcher. (Catching) is his passion, and that's where we need him to be at long term."
"We have three guys at the major league level and two guys at Double-A [Odor and Sardinas]; it would be irresponsible not to consider it. Will we ultimately make a deal? I really don't know. Teams are getting the lay of the land, see what's out there and make a decision."
"One of the greatest lines he ever said to me, we were talking in the outfield and his line was, 'I just made $800,000 just talking to you for this five minutes sitting out here. How does that make you feel?'"
"It's just really something for the fans of the Tampa Bay area. They need a new ballpark, they need to address that. Certainly the bell's been answered by the organization as far as putting a product on the field that would normally attract fans."
"Trout is by far the best player in the league — he has everything."
"At the rate the Yankees are going, I'm not sure anyone can compete with them. Frankly, the sport might need a salary cap."
"Given that we are going from 19 seating categories with 19 price points to 19 categories with 95 price points, we understand it may take a while for our fans to adjust. That said, all 29 other MLB clubs have some form of variable or dynamic pricing and their fans quickly adjusted to a higher price for high demand games and a lower price for games with less demand."
"I don't know he's going to play himself off that position. We are counting on him to be that guy. We will continue to work it. He played second base three or four times. He's getting exposed to that part of it too. But he's getting his at-bats and bulk of innings at shortstop."

"I always think that the finest evidence for evolution comes from fossils, and it is very hard to imagine, is it not, a fossil virus, but one has been found." From "Why creationism is wrong and evolution is right"
From Royal Society Public lecture by Prof Steve Jones, 11 Apr 2006. Video
Editorial Comment: Since Steve Jones is a professor of genetics at the University College of London UK, you would think that his "best evidence for evolution" would be from his own expertise of genetics, not fossils. However, after many years of debating evolutionists we have noticed they consistently claim the best evidence for evolution comes from branches of science other than their own. The creation versus evolution debate is commonly portrayed as being faith versus science, but Jones' comment reminds us that belief in evolution is based, not on direct scientific observations made by experts in their field. It is based on one expert's faith in the authority of other experts in different fields who willingly return the favour - and all hope the public never find out! If you can see the funny side of that – you're right, it's the Emperor's new clothes all over again. Belief in Biblical creation also involves faith, but it is not faith in the expertise of human scientists and philosophers who weren't there, instead it is a fact based faith in the Creator who was there. (Ref. belief, philosophy)

View Additional Section Content
As radiation oncology experts, we use innovative technology to target cancer cells and deliver radiation therapy while safeguarding healthy areas. We are dedicated to providing the best radiation treatments.
The American College of Radiology (ACR) and The American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) awarded us the ACR-ASTRO seal of accreditation for the highest level of quality and patient safety for radiation therapy.
Radiation therapy is delivered by a high-energy linear accelerator, a tall, long machine. The accelerator moves around a treatment table and is positioned to aim radiation directly at the cancer.
For many cancers, we use intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). IMRT and IGRT image the target site before each radiation session and shape the beam for precise delivery.
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain cancer and stereotactic body radiosurgery (SBRS) for other cancers use 3D imaging and focused beams on a targeted location. Accelerated partial breast radiation gives shorter, faster treatment for breast cancer.
To treat prostate cancer, our team is highly experienced with the Calypso® 4D Localization System, GPS for the Body®. Because the prostate gland moves continuously, Calypso® precisely aligns the organ with the radiation beam. This enables higher radiation doses to be sent to smaller areas, causing fewer side effects.
We also deliver radiation therapy internally through brachytherapy, a method used to treat some gynecologic cancers and prostate cancer.
Our radiation oncologists, radiation physicists and radiation therapists – all board-certified – are highly skilled with the newest treatments and technologies. Patient safety and care are ensured through our board-certified dosimetrists (professionals who generate dose calculations), highly trained radiation therapy nurses and the entire team.
Before starting any cancer treatment, talk with your oncologist about whether the therapy could affect your fertility. Our reproductive endocrinologists can help.

HTC Makes the Global One X+ Official - 1.7 GHz AP37 Tegra 3, 64 GB of Storageby Brian Klug on 10/2/2012 4:00 AM EST
28 Comments
Back to Article
aBg_rOnGak - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkcompared to other new phones.....better if Note II is included... Reply
Paulman - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkI'm planning on getting the Galaxy Note II, though it looks like the HTC One X+ has a few points of similarity with it (e.g. similarly clocked, quad-A9 cores, LTE support).
I was always tempted by the HTC One X's IPS LCD screen (since I don't like AMOLED's unevenness/inconsistency and battery draw), but I've heard and maybe even observed first hand that the SenseUI implementation is noticeably laggier than stock Android and even TouchWiz. Also, the SenseUI has always been praised as better looking that TouchWiz, but I always found it to be a little bit oversized for my liking.
Are any of these points about SenseUI true? And has Sense 4+ changed this?
Another thing I've always wondered about: are the LTE basebands used in the Galaxy Note II and HTC One X+ made on the 28nm process (like the iPhone 5's LTE)? I think the LTE baseband for the Exynos 4412 is off-chip, but should I expect that it's also manufactured on Samsung's 32nm HKMG process? In any case, should we expect it to be much better than previous gen LTE's (e.g. S II LTE, aka AT&T Skyrocket) and similar in power draw to the iPhone 5's LTE baseband? (Whew, those were a lot of questions) Reply
Brian Klug - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkThe One X+ with 4.1 felt considerably smoother than I'm used to on my One X (8960), not sure how much of that is just 4.1 versus Sense 4 being brought under control. I've always felt that the T3 One X with Sense 4 was slower at redrawing certain elements for some reason.
MDM9x15 is 28nm and inside iPhone 5, One X+, etc.
MDM9x00 is 45nm and inside SGS2 LTE / Skyrocket, etc
-Brian Reply
amdwilliam1985 - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkglad they're improving on the LTE chips.
I wonder why these OEM and/or OS are not providing toggle buttons to easily support changes between 2g/3g/4g speeds. I know a lot of people are preferring 4g/LTE speed. But I'm on 2g most of the time, it saves tons of battery and it's sufficient enough for me to text with whatsapp and email. I do not watch youtube or netflix o the go. Reply
phoenix_rizzen - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkThe Samsung Galaxy SII HD LTE (i757) from Bell (similar to the Skyrocket on AT&T) includes a separate toggle buttons for LTE, 4G/HSPA, and 3G. It's on the same page as the wireless toggle.
Very handy, as we don't have LTE in our city as yet (scheduled for sometime in 2013), so there's no point in running the radio at all. Reply
Impulses - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkMy HTC EVO 4G LTE lets you easily switch from CDMA/LTE to CDMA only... Reply
neothe0ne - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkThe 16 GB of storage was crippling for the US market but if this comes over in 32 and 64, it would probably be the best phone on the market. Screen should still be #1 and in practice, the camera (software) should (still) beat the Galaxy S III.
Any word on release date in US, Europe, or anywhere else? (I realize we still don't even know the LTE bands...) Reply
bill4 - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkDisagree. The GS3 has a bigger screen, 2GB RAM, and from what I've seen I prefer Touchwiz to Sense.
Plus the One-X has some weird crippled multitasking going on I understand.
Screens are a matter of taste imo, the true blacks of SAMOLED are pretty nice. Whatever the case, my GS3 screen is absolutely gorgeous and the whole pentile thing is overblown.
Also HTC seems to have quality control problems compared to Samsung. I also just read a youtube comment that Tegra 3 is junk and that the audio DAC in Tegra 3 is crap too (I wouldn't know anything about this personally LOL)
I bet performance isn't better, if not worse, than Krait as well.
Plus you get removable SD slot, battery.
anyways, super happy GS3 owner here. Reply
jamyryals - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkYou read a YouTube comment? Holy cow, A+ source right there. Reply
Spunjji - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkHahaha, +1 to that Reply
piroroadkill - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkIf you're going to leave out the microSD slot, at least give the device 64GB minimum. They've done that, and so I think this is a pretty nice device now. Reply
BPB - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkWill Sprint be updating their version of this phone? Reply
Impulses - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkSprint's EVO 4G LTE already had a larger battery (same as the One X+), not to mention 16GB PLUS a microSD slot with which you can easily add 32GB or even 64GB for $20-50... I think it'd be pointless for them to update it. They just need to get the Jelly Bean update out. Reply
krazyfrog - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkYour article mentions a 27% jump in performance whereas the website you linked to mentions 67%. Please confirm which one is correct. Reply
newbietech - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkBrian,
What are the differences between MDM9215 and MDM9615?
What could be the reasons for HTC to use MDM9215 in X+ when Apple is using MDM9615 in iPhone 5? Reply
newbietech - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkMDM9215 seems to have most of MDM9615 except for EVDO.
http://www.qualcomm.com/media/documents/files/gobi... Reply
Penti - Wednesday, October 03, 2012 - linkAs far as I understand from just observing Qualcomm and it's products, it's only CDMA support that differs here. It's not a CDMA-phone so. From the product table it's also suppose to support Rel 9 DC-HSPA+ though, but I don't get why it should be any different there, though that would be DC-HSDPA plus MIMO. Which I guess most products wouldn't support. CDMA is the normal difference between x6xx and x2xx variants any way. CDMA and price is the only real thing I can think of. MDM9625 would have been interesting if it were around already. Those might support with WRT1605 up to 7 LTE-bands too. Reply
hemanthj - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - linkif i buy this model from USA and use in India, does the LTE work here in india or only 3 will work? Reply
Peanutsrevenge - Wednesday, October 03, 2012 - linkYou'll need to wait and see what bands this phone supports and check if your carrier uses the same bands.
If your carrier is using bands not supported by the phone, then no, it won't work.
If they match, you're a good'un. Reply
allajunaki - Friday, October 05, 2012 - linkDo we have LTE in India?
Only provider for LTE in India is Airtel. However, they are not advertising as an Voice + Data service. And from what I could glean, it is restricted to their 4G USB Modems. Reply
tuxRoller - Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - link...sticking with Tegra is a bit odd.
The upcoming Optimus G, Xiaomi phone 2 both look great, and should be a good deal more powerful than this HTC phone.
Here's to hoping next year Nvidia either starts building great SoC or gets less design wins. Reply
MartinT - Wednesday, October 03, 2012 - linkNot odd at all, this is a regular mid-cycle refresh with drop-in replacement parts that improve the product with likely minimal design effort. Reply
newbietech - Saturday, October 06, 2012 - linkIt's more like a late cycle refresh. Tegra 3 has been around since late last year. Disappointingly, the latest iteration still seems to be made with 40nm technology and still based on Cortex A9 core design. I'll stay tuned for more details but nothing seems to have improved but the clock speed.
Nvidia seems to have lost a step in the core redesign department by going for extra cores first. Qualcomm has had 28 nm next gen based processors for months now and with integrated baseband on SOC to boot.
Nvidia has 28 nm next gen based processors coming out next year but they need to figure out how they can integrate the baseband on the SOC. Reply
halcyon - Thursday, October 04, 2012 - linkDoes Nvidia Tegra 3 AP37 have dual channel memory? Reply
vision33r - Tuesday, October 09, 2012 - linkiPhone 5 > HTC, we know iPhone fans will buy the newest darling.
Samsung S3>HTC
Tegra 3 is really an awful crude design. It's like the old days when ATI constantly kick Nvidia's GeForce in the rear. Graphic performance weaker than the Mali400 in the Samsung Exynos and way slower than the new iPhone A6.
No MicroSD card and removeable battery is the biggest joke here. You can't beat Apple by trying to be like them. Reply
phillyry - Saturday, November 10, 2012 - linkIt may not help, that's tru.
It looks like HTC is hedging their bets on Windows 8 Phone with the 8X.
While I agree with your view that the strategy of trying to beat Apple by being like them is a bad idea, I'd have to disagree that this is entirely true here. The One X and One X+ are offering an Apple-like design / form-factor with the Android OS.
So, I'd say it's more of an offering for people who'd prefer Android over iOS but don't want a phone that falls apart every time you drop it and that feels like a cheap POS.
Removable batteries and SD cards are over-rated. Just give me a good battery and a good amount of NAND built in for a decent price (along with all the other specs we'll all want) and I'm happy.
All devices, from laptops to tablets to phones will ultimately morph to this form-factor because they will need to continue to miniturise. People are not going to be buying laptops, tablets or phones with the criteria in mind that they can be taken apart. That's an old way of thinking and it will go the way of the dodo. People have already started to accept gadgets with non-user replaceable parts because they look better, feel better , and are more durable.
We'll see how many GS3's are still around in three years. I can assure you that there are still plenty of iPhone 3GS's around because when they get launched by a two year old, they don't break. Reply
EricHope - Friday, November 23, 2012 - linkI agree! Wholeheartedly. Couldn't have said it better myself (so I won't attempt to). Let me add, though, that the Nexus 4 ALSO has a non-removable battery, and no Micro SD card, and only a FRACTION of the onboard storage (and no LTE: The killer). So the One X+ looks more attractive to me than the Nexus 4 (though both have great physical design). Perhaps this is a trend we're going to start seeing more of? Sealed cases? Don't get me wrong: I don't LOVE the idea of sealing the backs of these devices, but if you're gonna do it, at least do it RIGHT, and it looks like HTC has in this case. At least they put enough storage onboard (and put in a large enough battery) to future-proof it in some way (certainly more so than the Nexus 4, it seems. At least from a hardware perspective). I think the One X+ is a great product (with the exception of maybe its camera, and the curious multitasking approach, which limits you to 8 open applications at a time) and SHOULD gain more traction than the original One X, but I think HTC suffers from less-than-stellar marketing. This phone seems to have slipped in under the radar of most folks as it is. What HTC (and specifically this phone) needs is a good marketing campaign, which is something Samsung got right, and is now enjoying tremendous success from. I hope HTC can do something similar. They could produce the best phone in the world, but if its not in the general public's face, they're not going to know about it. I went into an AT&T store the other day, to have a play with this phone, and the SALES STAFF didn't know anything about it! Folks who read these forums & articles seem to know about it, but the average person just seems to know about the iPhone & the Galaxy S III. "Marketing, Marketing, Marketing!" is all I say. HTC makes great devices. Now the world just needs to be made aware of their existence. Reply
EricHope - Friday, November 23, 2012 - linkJust saw a pretty slick ad for this phone:
So it looks like they ARE marketing it. I'm happy to see that. Hopefully, the world will now discover this excellent phone. Reply

Searching for Real Estate from Your Mobile Device
Are you in the market to buy a new home? If so, chances are pretty good that you've sat down in front of your computer to do some sort of real estate search. Ninety percent of home buyers today start their home searches online. But did you know that in addition to your laptop or desktop computer, there are a growing number of ways for you to conduct home searches from your mobile device and/or cell phone?
With 49 percent of homebuyers and sellers turning to their mobile devices to help find solutions for their real estate needs, real estate professionals have made vast improvements in the mobile market. There are currently mobile real estate apps for all the various Apple products (iPod, iPad, iPhone), Android devices (Samsung Galaxy, Google Nexus, Amazon Kindle), as well as Windows Phone and BlackBerry.
If you are working with a real estate agent, check to see if their brokerage website has a mobile application available for downloading; this will give you immediate access to local listings in your area. If agent does not have a separate application, they may have a mobile version of the website which will facilitate your real estate searches on your mobile device.
In addition, for those who are interested not only in conducting localized searches, but also in searching properties throughout different regions or within certain school districts, there are mobile applications like Zillow.
Just visit the app store on your device and you will find these free real estate applications available for download. The apps allow you to conduct home searches based upon your individualized criteria such as price, square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, specific amenities and more. You have the ability to save your frequent searches and in many cases you can catalog your favorite search results. And, just like an ordinary online search, mobile devices allow you to map out your search results.
The really unique ability that a mobile real estate search provides is the ability to do real-time searches while you are out scouting various neighborhoods in the community. If you are passing through an appealing area, you can use your mobile phone/device to do a very quick search to discover home values in the vicinity. Or perhaps you like a particular neighborhood as you're driving through but you aren't sure if it's located in a good school district. Should you spend any more time looking or should you move on? Pull up your mobile app and find out!
If you are a homebuyer in today's real estate market you can leverage the benefits of modern technology and put your search right at your fingertips.

Movie Review: Karzzzz
Himesh Reshammiya has brainwashed millions of people in his cult. He doesn't care though – as long as he has his loyal fans, he can continue to churn out idiotic movies such as Aap Ka Suroor and now Karzzzz.

Allah creates wisdom moment by moment. Sincerity is very important because Allah says, "Only my true, sincere servants will be saved." When someone is sincere, Allah flows wisdom onto him or her. Wisdom always flows; wisdom is not inside the brain. People think that wisdom is hidden inside a box and it says in there; it is not like that. The head is empty inside. Wisdom flows inside one's head like a stream by Allah's leave. When Almighty Allah sees that person's sincerity – He knows it in destiny- He flows wisdom to him or her constantly. When a person is insincere, He stops the flow of wisdom. Then that person becomes crazy. They encourage insincerity a lot with soap operas and movies; however, being a rational and balanced person is nice for both men and women.
Allah grants wisdom to a sincere person; this is very clear. This is seen in all the prophets and good people. For example, Allah takes the foresight and perception of a dark, suspicious, dishonest, hypocrite person, who doesn't want anything good and who doesn't feel mercy for others, away. They begin to act in an abnormal way. There would be a bad look in their eyes. Their speech would become disrupted and they lose their logic. Allah creates obstacles for them causing unfruitfulness. If you abandon sincerity, misfortune follows you everywhere: If you are honest and sincere, you begin to see that things that appear as misfortune are actually right. You would begin to see that there is good in everything.2013-10-17 20:51:51

Big Men on Campus
Loyal, high-powered boosters support university athletic programs with hearts, minds and wallets
(continued from page 3)
So why was T. Boone Pickens, one of America's richest men, someone who could have been anywhere in the world (and with almost anyone in the world), positioned in his customary spot above the 50-yard line, urging on Oklahoma State as it stumbled against the Longhorns? Why had he flown in from Dallas, as he does for every OSU football home game, most of the away games, and many basketball games, too?
And what could he have been thinking before his wedding in 2005 when he made it abundantly clear to his fiancée, Madeleine Paulson—an urbane, fiercely intelligent woman who was raised in Europe and owns thoroughbred racehorses—that Oklahoma State would be his priority on fall Saturdays? Especially since she was scheduled to have one of America's top thoroughbreds, Rock Hard Ten, running in the Breeders' Cup on the day of the Texas game.
"We talked about it before the wedding," Pickens confirms. "She said, 'Boone, I'm so excited for the Breeders' Cup. I can't wait for you to get involved in horse racing and meet some of these people.' And I said, 'Wait a minute! Is that a Saturday in October?' I looked at the schedule and said, 'Sorry, honey. I'll be in Stillwater.'"
Pickens' behavior exemplifies the improbable hold that collegiate athletics has on some of America's most successful businessmen, show-business personalities, politicians and lots of other people who would seem to have better things to do with autumn weekends and winter nights than watch amateurs play football and basketball. Winning team or losing team, it hardly matters; what Pickens and others like him are doing has nothing to do with jumping on any bandwagon. "He's here every week," says David J. Schmidly, the OSU president. "We keep getting beat and he keeps coming. It gives you hope."
These men have spent some of the best years of their lives on campus, integrating themselves into the fabric of a university in a way that isn't possible with professional teams. They're as much Oklahoma State, or whatever the institution may be, as the player who has it written across his jersey.
But old college ties aren't all of it. Another OSU graduate and former football player, the highly successful auto dealer Jim Click, moved to Tucson and became a devoted backer of the University of Arizona. Or consider Sam Rechter, who owns mining and construction companies, restaurants and other businesses from Alabama to the Midwest. Rechter grew up beside the Indiana University campus in Bloomington, served as a ball boy under the great basketball coach Branch McCracken, then played at Purdue. Yet he has devoted his leisure time to University of Louisville athletics for almost four decades, since moving to Louisville for business reasons and deciding Cardinals basketball would be an enjoyable way to get integrated into the community. "Now I'm completely integrated," says Rechter. He has chaired the local airport commission, served on the visiting committee for the university's medical and engineering schools, and held many other positions in town. But he rarely misses a game.
It wouldn't have been the same with a professional team. Sure, a pro fan might feel as if he has a vested interest in his favorite franchise. He can buy season tickets, put the team's logo on his credit cards and license plates, subscribe to the newsletter. But unlike college programs, that team will have an ownership group, and unless our fan happens to be part of it, fan will be short for fantasy.
Owners and fans of pro teams have interests that ultimately diverge. Despite the team's thousands of dedicated loyalists, the Cleveland Browns blithely left for Baltimore in 1996 when a better offer presented itself. They were a business and existed—like businesses in other industries—to make money. By contrast, college teams truly represent their community. They can't move, they employ thousands of locals from laborers to executives, and—in nearly all cases—they're owned by a state, a municipality or a nonprofit governing board. Standing on the sidelines at an Arizona football game, a privileged position afforded him not because of his donations but because of the enthusiasm he shows for the school, Click might be forgiven if he considers the Wildcats his team. He has lived in Tucson and followed Arizona for decades, outlasting several athletic directors, numerous coaches and countless players.
Pro sports may seem to operate on a grander scale, what with the price for a commercial on the Super Bowl telecast and the stupendous salaries, but that isn't necessarily so. Pickens has given more than $250 million to the Oklahoma State athletic program and "I'll give a lot more," he says. (In January, Pickens gave $165 million to OSU, the largest single gift given to an NCAA sports program. Joe Jamail, perhaps America's top trial attorney, is said to have given an estimated $30 million to the University of Texas. Like Pickens, he was rewarded with a football stadium named after him.)
For $100 million down, leveraged to a multiple of 10 by a friendly banker, these men could easily buy their own sports franchises. In time, they'd get a sizable return on their investment, unlike donations to an academic institution, which get you a tax write-off and little more. From that perspective, professional sports is the far smarter way to go. But this story isn't about money. It's about love.
Ask a major contributor such as Pickens to show you his school's campus, and you'll get a man bursting with pride. This isn't because he has helped pay for it. In Oklahoma State, Pickens sees an academic institution on the rise, and his diploma—or, in other cases, the local connections—makes him a shareholder. "It's easier to raise money for a school if you're winning in football," says Pickens, who graduated from OSU in 1951 with a degree in geology. "But I don't want this school to be identified as a sports school only."
At 78, Pickens is as active as ever. After making his name by building Mesa Petroleum into the largest independent oil and gas company in America, then gaining a reputation as a corporate raider, he's now buying up water sources. One watchdog group cautions that he and his partners will soon control the pumping rights for tens of billions of gallons a year to Texas's largest metropolitan areas, which will doubtless make Pickens far wealthier than he is already.
But for all his money, Pickens hasn't created an entity bigger than himself. As his mortality looms, it makes sense that he wants to leave his mark on an institution that is likely to thrive for centuries. Americans may one day be driving electric cars and heating homes with solar power, and oil will be a distant memory on the order of steam-powered trains. But if all goes well, OSU will still be playing games at Boone Pickens Stadium—and perhaps even winning them by then.
Pickens likes to be involved in what the teams are doing. Whether it's a coach to be hired or a recruit considering the school, "I get consulted," he says. When that consultation interferes with business, business has to wait. "He'll be in his office, meeting with his investment committee, and a call will come in from someone in the OSU athletic department briefing him on something," says Jay Rosser, who handles public affairs for Pickens' BP Capital holding company. "He always takes the call."
In some psychological sense, Pickens identifies with the university. OSU isn't Texas, a perennial contender and occasional champion in most sports. It isn't even in-state rival Oklahoma, which has won seven national titles in football. Instead, it occupies roughly the same cosmic space in its endeavors that the scrappy Pickens does in the financial world. "I don't mind being the underdog," he says. "I've been there before. I've played with my back against the wall." Hearing a characterization of Oklahoma State as the striving outsider competing against the established powers, Pickens smiles. "That looks like me," he says.
Such motivations help explain why Pickens is so generous to OSU, not just with money, but time and energy, too. He enjoys seeing friends and family in his stadium box on Saturdays, but cautions that what he's doing in Stillwater isn't about a good time. "It's about fulfilling a commitment," he says. "Doing what you say you'll do. I want to establish something with the students and the alums. I want to see us be more loyal to our school."
Clearly, Oklahoma State is fortunate to have him. Yet on a lesser scale, there are Pickens types at nearly every major university, and most of the minor ones, too. Though they might not be known nationally and internationally, they're nearly always community leaders. Though few have $250 million to spend, their contributions are no less important. And their motivations are equally complex.
Without Jim Click, Arizona's athletic director Jim Livengood says, "I'm not sure we'd make it. Financially, spiritually, any other way." The son of an Altus, Oklahoma, auto dealer, Click played college football under Sammy Baugh, the legendary pro and college quarterback who briefly served as the OSU coach. He came to Tucson in 1971, a young businessman with little money but plenty of ambition, and spent his savings on a Ford dealership. "When I came here, I was 27," he says. "I didn't know anybody. The first thing I did was set up a scholarship program at the U. of A."
Since then, he has become the most visible merchant in town, from his high-energy television commercials—in which he takes a starring role—to his ubiquitous presence at galas, openings and other community events. A natural salesman, he has a smile and a friendly word for everyone. On the street, it's one wave and handshake after another. "You'd be hard-pressed to find anyone in Arizona who doesn't know Jim Click," Livengood says. "Should he want to, he could easily be the governor of Arizona."
Click's sincerity has proven terrifically lucrative. Even when the auto industry has a slump, it rarely seems to affect rapidly growing Tucson, and it almost never affects Click's two dozen dealerships. But beyond a passion for racing cars and a private plane, his lifestyle shows few of the trappings of such success. He still lives in the same comfortable but hardly grandiose house he bought three decades ago.
Instead, Click likes to give his money away. He tries to support as many organizations as he can, from the Boys and Girls Club to Junior Achievement, from hospitals to charities for the homeless. "I even bought a monkey one time for a kid who was dying," he says. What they have in common is Tucson. "Tucson has been extremely good to me," he says. He wants everyone to know that he has tied his fortunes to the city.
But as much as any city of its size in the country, Tucson's fortunes are tied to its university. And because he's a fan and a former player, and because you can't plausibly walk through campus cheering on its laboratories and libraries, Click has focused on the athletic department—and more specifically the football team, though it's Lute Olson's basketball Wildcats who have staked out a permanent place in the Top 25 and won the 1997 national championship. (Click attends basketball games and is a friend and supporter of Olson, but says, "Basketball's been such a winning program, they've got the whole town behind them. They don't need me.")
In his office, Click has photos of himself with two presidents named Bush, one named Clinton, one named Ford, one named Reagan. His friends and associates are some of America's most successful people. Yet it takes an extraordinary occasion to make him miss a game—such as when his business partner's daughter got married last season on the same night that the Wildcats upset undefeated UCLA. When he misses a road game, he waits at the airport to greet the team plane, win or lose. "I just want to show them support," he says.
"I've seen people like this at Oklahoma, at Kansas State, everywhere I've been," says Mike Stoops, Arizona's head football coach. "With the great ones, it's not so much the money as their support. You want people there through the bad times, as well as the good times. We've struggled through some excruciating games here, and Jim sees the progress. He calls me every Monday and let's me know we're doing a good job."
Click's involvement with the program has generated friendships in high places, but he doesn't request favors. He won't even offer unsolicited opinions. "He likes to be part of the process," says Livengood. "But in the 12 years I've been here with him, he has never once called and said, 'You should do this.'" Still, when Livengood was headed to Norman, Oklahoma, to interview Stoops, then an OU assistant, he asked Click to come. "I wanted him on board," Livengood says. "It's not so much that we needed his buy-in, but someone as successful as Jim can sense the drive to succeed that someone has. He understands people." It goes without saying that Click tore up his schedule on a moment's notice. He even contributed his plane.
Click's around so much that he often knows news about the Wildcats before almost anyone else. He can be counted on to keep secrets, unlike some supporters, who get a kick out of being able to disseminate information as cocktail-party chatter. That only happened once with Click, and nobody could blame him for it. In 2004, he was in Phoenix attending a rally for George W. Bush. He'd been an early supporter of Bush and had come to know him well. At the time, the Wildcats were just completing the process of hiring a new football coach, and had managed to keep their choice confidential. Standing at the podium, Bush saw Click across the room. He called out, "Hey, Click, who's your new football coach?"
"I can't tell you, Mr. President," Click responded. "Well, come up and whisper in my ear."
Click dutifully mounted the podium. "It's Mike Stoops," he told Bush. "We're hiring Stoops." Bush approached the microphone with a mischievous grin. "Click says it's Stoops," he called out to Click's dismay.
The next day, senior associate athletic director Chris del Conte received a phone call from Arturo Moreno. The owner of baseball's Los Angeles Angels and another big Wildcats supporter, Moreno had also attended the fund-raiser. Now he was calling, only half in jest, to find out why Click had known the identity of the next coach and he hadn't.
"I hear you're hiring Stoops," he said.
"How'd you find out?" del Conte asked.
"Aw," Moreno said, "Click told the President."
So far, we've avoided the word booster, a staple of salacious headlines and NCAA investigations. To the casual fan, boosters are shady operators bearing envelopes stuffed with money, looking to entice some prep phenom to attend State U. But the likes of Pickens and Click—and, on a more distant level, Kentucky's Ashley Judd, Notre Dame's Regis Philbin, Temple's Bill Cosby and other big-name supporters—are boosters, too. "I'm proud to be called a booster," says Louisville's Sam Rechter. "That's what I am."
Coaches understand the dichotomy. "The worst type of booster is the guy who wants to meet players," says Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino, who has experienced the good and the bad while coaching at Boston University, Providence and Kentucky, and as a player at Massachusetts. In Rechter, he believes he has one of the best. "He never interferes, never second-guesses," Pitino says. "He's in the background, there to support the program whenever you need him. He's not interested in spending time with players."
"Being 'in the know' is not important to me," Rechter confirms. "Being a part of making something happen is." From the rear of the 12-seat section attached to his Freedom Hall luxury box, Rechter rarely raises his voice. He's not the type to jump to his feet in protest or raise a fist in jubilation. He's a student of the game, eager to appreciate a well-executed zone trap or a perfectly timed backdoor cut. That said, he'd rather see Louisville play sloppy and win than lose a classic at the buzzer. "I'm a fan of basketball, but I'm a Louisville fan," he says. "I've got a connection with this program that pro sports fans will never have with their teams. It's a touchy-feely connection that has nothing to do with being an owner."

A UNIQUE equine therapy centre based near Chard received a late Christmas present in the form of a £410 donation from the Sergeant's Mess of Taunton-based 40 Commando Royal Marines.
WO2 John Smillie, from Crewkerne, and his wife Sarah had previously visited the charity run by founder Lilias Ahmeira and her staff and volunteers.
Special Horses for Special Children offers sensory therapy, horseplay and riding with tricks to families with children on the autistic spectrum or who are suffering emotional trauma or neurological problems.
The couple's son, Thomas, who had been displaying some degree of social withdrawal, had a session at the centre, which prompted his father to hold a Christmas raffle, which raised £150, and officers proposed and approved a further £250.
John and Sarah, along with their son and daughter, Betty, went to the centre over the festive season to present the cheque to Lilias.
She thanked the Smillie family and everyone at 40 Commando for their help and donation.
Lilias said: "Special Horses for Special Children is the only facility of its kind in the country.
"Families have been travelling from as far as Birmingham, Wales and Surrey for its help.
"The ethos of involving all the family members and allowing buried emotions to come to the surface reaps benefits to parents who are strung out, as well as the children with issues they are coping with."
Plans are in the pipeline at the centre to offer therapy for adults with mental trauma, bereavement and families with anxiety separation issues.

Thanks for this Marion. Many of the meds that my mum is on come with warnings in the pamphlets with the meds stating that users should avoid grapefruit juice whilst taking them. Good link.
Well guys, I take Lipitor, Insulin and now stuff for Colitis!! Pretty soon I will have to give up eating! I know, I will start a new food regime of adult baby food!!!!
Give up eating??? Noooooo!!!
HA HA Gavin, I was just sitting here as I knew you would say that!!!!
Hope Mum is doing ok, give her a big hug for me.
Will do Lainy! Mum is so so, better than earlier this year so we'll take that! Codeine based pain meds are helping with her pain better so that is good. But, as much as they help with the pain...they cause constipation! So, she has Senokot whch she has taken a few times andf that helps...a lot!! I asked mum if she wanted me to put out some Senokot tonight for her before I went home, answer, very quickly.....NOOOO!!! They must be working well!
Hope you are doing ok too, bar the Preds...Grrr....
Hi my son from another mother. Well I was on 1 Pred. for about 3 days, out with the girlfriends last night for dinner and everything starting coming back. Went back on the 2 pills and see the GI Monday. I will heed my own advise and if he doesn't have another game plan will get another opinion, long enough already.
Thanks for that Momma Lainy. Your advice has worked so well for all of us here and your gut medicine has also done you well too. So, and as you would say to us all....go with your gut feeling here! You know best. How are you feeling tonight? Better I hope??
Thanks, Gavin! A tad better but not enough. Monday the imbecile Doc and then the 2nd opinion. I may end up in the hospital for 3 days with the Prednisone IV. Don't know yet, will write to you when I know.
So, now you have a Mum and a Momma to take care of and I wish I could see you boing over the fence for a blether! I am having 3 gal friends here Sunday for an Oscar dinner and that will keep me busy.
A tad better is one thing, but not good enough as you say. Lets hope for a another tad tomorrow, or more tads. Or whatever the plural of tads is! Tadders?? I dunno, but I know you get what I'm saying! I just jumped up and stuck my head over your fence, I'll put the kettle on too! And as for taking care of a mum and a momma, I can do that!

Florida rallies past Kentucky in SEC semifinals
Published: Saturday, May 24, 2014 at 7:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 24, 2014 at 7:37 p.m.
HOOVER, Ala. — Top-seeded Florida gained revenge on ninth-seeded Kentucky by eliminating the Wildcats 6-5 in a SEC baseball tournament semifinal Saturday at Hoover Metropolitan Stadium.
Up next
SEC baseball tournament at Hoover Ala.
Florida vs. LSU, today at 4:30 p.m.
Radio: AM-850
Florida (40-20) will face third-seeded LSU (43-14-1), which dominated seventh-seeded Arkansas (38-23) for an 11-1 eight-inning win in the day's other semifinal, for the tournament title starting at 4:30 Sunday on ESPN2. LSU has won its first three tournament games by a combined 29-4.
Kentucky, which won the weekend series over Florida 2-1 earlier this season, knocked the Gators into the losers' bracket Wednesday. UF had to win three consecutive games to play for the title.
"I thought it was a great game," UF coach Kevin O'Sullivan said. "Kentucky has had our number this year. They have a real chance in a regional. They have one of the best lineups in the league.
"We knew it was going to be a fight all the way to the end. Our guys fought."
In a back-and-forth game, Josh Tobias gave the Gators the lead for good with a run-scoring single in the eighth inning.
"I was looking for a pitch to drive," Tobias said. "He was down 2-0 in the count. He threw me a fastball that I didn't like, and then he threw a slider that I didn't try to do too much with."
Kentucky (35-23) took a 3-0 lead with a run in the first and two in the second.
UF cut the deficit to 3-2 in the top of the third on Casey Turgeon's RBI single and Richie Martin's run-scoring groundout.
The Gators went up 4-3 in the fifth on Harrison Bader's two-run single.
UK regained the lead in the sixth inning following an infield error, a sacrifice bunt, a run-scoring single and a RBI double.
Florida tied it at 5 in the seventh inning on a Bader RBI single after Martin had reached on a single and stole second base. Bader finished 3 for 4 and drove in three runs.
"I think guys are just trying to get singles and not trying to do too much," said Bader, who is batting .625 (10 for 16) in the tournament. "We are just trying to hit it hard and not far."
Tobias put UF up 6-5 in the eighth with an RBI single that followed singles by Peter Alonso and Ryan Larson.
The Gators' bullpen came through in a big way after starter Brett Morales lasted just 1.1 innings. Kirby Snead relieved and went 4.1 of three-hit ball before giving way to Eric Hanhold (4-3) to close it out. Hanhold allowed just two hits in the final 3.1 innings and struck out four.
"I thought Kirby Snead really settled things down for us," O'Sullivan said. "Eric was really good at the end of the game."
Notes: LSU has won a conference-best 10 SEC tournament titles and is seeking its fifth tournament championship in seven years. … UF, the regular-season champion, is seeking its second championship in four years. … The 16 sites for NCAA Regionals will be announced at 9 p.m. today, while the 64-team field for the NCAA tournament will be revealed at noon Monday on ESPNU. The Gators swept the three-game home series vs. LSU this season. … UF has won 40 games for the fifth time in seven years under coach Kevin O'Sullivan.

The LaRue branch was the first of the branches to be established. It opened in November, 1936 with the cooperation of the Twentieth Century Club as a memorial to Mrs. J. D. Henkle, a charter member of the Club. The Mrs. Ferol Holliday estate gave a bequest for the branch in 1971.
When the LaRue village council provided additional space for the branch in the Town Hall, the Marion Public Library board used the Holliday bequest to completely renovate the branch. Work on the Henkle-Holliday Memorial Library was completed in 1980.
