Detailed Description:
The investigators will determine if the MRI can be used to determine the temperature inside the brain. This is an important piece of information now that cooling the brain is being used to decrease brain damage in infants who had a decrease in brain oxygen or flow around the time of birth.

|Official Title:
|MRI Thermal Imaging of Infants Undergoing Cooling for HIE
Further study details as provided by William Walsh, Vanderbilt University:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- We will determine if the MRI temperature measurement protocol gives different distributions of temperature within the brain of infants undergoing cooling and the same infant rewarmed. [ Time Frame: One day ]

Selective head cooled infants cooled
Infants with HIE who have undergone head cooling for the amelioration of HIE
Selective head cooled infants rewarmed
Same infants after rewarming
Detailed Description:
There are presently two modes of providing cooling for the infant with HIE: 1) systemic cooling of the entire body (Body Cooling) to 33.5°C documented by rectal temperature and 2) selective head cooling via an FDA approved Cool-cap device which cools the rectal temperature to 34.5°C by applying a continuous flow of very cold (10°C) water to the scalp. The potential advantage of the latter approach lies in the brain being selectively cooled relative to the rectal temperature. Experimental direct temperature measurements in animals have shown that both methods cool the brain; however, despite FDA approval and world-wide application, no one has ever demonstrated that the brain of a human can be cooled effectively, and it is further not known if the cooling is uniform. Most investigators assume the surface will be cooled to a greater degree than the deep brain structures, especially with selective head cooling.We will use a modification of the information obtained from the MRI to determine the distribution of temperatures within the infants brain.

The Nature of Space and Time
Einstein said that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible. But was he right? Can the quantum theory of fields and Einstein's general theory of relativity, the two most accurate and successful theories in all of physics, be united into a single quantum theory of gravity? Can quantum and cosmos ever be combined? In The Nature of Space and Time, two of the world's most famous physicists—Stephen Hawking (A Brief History of Time) and Roger Penrose (The Road to Reality)—debate these questions.
The authors outline how their positions have further diverged on a number of key issues, including the spatial geometry of the universe, inflationary versus cyclic theories of the cosmos, and the black-hole information-loss paradox. Though much progress has been made, Hawking and Penrose stress that physicists still have further to go in their quest for a quantum theory of gravity.
Stephen Hawking is the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics Emeritus at the University of Cambridge. Roger Penrose is the Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics Emeritus at the University of Oxford.
"This elegant little volume provides a clear account of two approaches to some of the greatest unsolved problems of gravitation and cosmology."--John Barrow, New Scientist
"A debate between Hawking and Penrose . . . raises the reader's expectations of a lively interaction, and this is fully bourne in the transcribed discussion. . . . Hawking's effervescent sense of humour frequently enlivens the text."--Joseph Silk, Times Higher Education
Praise for Princeton's previous editions:: "If there were such a thing as the World Professional Heavyweight Theory Debating Society, this would be the title bout."--Christopher Dornan, Toronto Globe & Mail
Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "This is a very courteous and intellectually stimulating exchange between two first-rate minds."--Library Journal
Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "This is an interesting book to read now, but it promises to become an even more interesting book for future generations of physicists."--Robert M. Wald, Science
Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "As well as providing an accurate scientific record of the lectures, the text has lost none of the drama of the original occasion, which stemmed from the almost antithetical views of the two protagonists on almost everything except the classical theory of general relativity."--Gary Gibbons, Physics World
Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "I found great satisfaction and not inconsiderable benefit from my efforts. . . . The clarity and brilliance of Hawking's logic would break through in simple straightforward terms. . . . This provided a real thrill."--Lucy Horwitz, Boston Book Review

Dan Snaith's Daphni Returns with New 12-Inch
Published Aug 08, 2011
Like the first edition, Daphni Edits Volume 2 is being released by the Resista imprint and features a couple of tunes re-edited or remixed by the artist. First up is "Hypersphere," originally performed by New Zealand psychedelic disco outfit Orchestra of Spheres and juiced up on the twelve-inch by Daphni. According to the press release, "Daphni masterfully extends it, adds his arsenal of effects and generally boosts its inherent psych and left-field dance-floor appeal."
The B-side includes a West African jam called "Baladins," featuring "syncopated drums, masterful melodic guitar riffs and general feel-good summer vibes." Apparently, Daphni restores the dance-floor shuffler masterfully. "We've never heard a state-sponsored dance-music orchestra sound so good!" the press statement exclaims.
You can hear snippets of both songs here.
Thanks to FACT for the tip.

Very frustrating: this bug still exists on Sitefinity 9.1 and feather 1.6.5
I just discovered that this is bug in feather after hours of scratching my head to figure out what to do. On following page there is one line of explanation which promises this bug has been rectified in version 1.6.5 of feather:
"Other MVC widgets do not show up when in details mode of the Dynamic widget"
At first I felt happy and tried to update my feather but it turns out that this version needs Sitefinity 9.1 while I had version 8.2. So, I took the risk and spent hours to upgrade my project. At the end, to my surprise the bug still exist and its very solid and persistent ! Could it be because of using an upgraded project? I mean this fix only works on clean install?
I am frustrated and tired. Can anyone suggest a quick/dirty fix to this problem at least? my project is pending on this issue.
I am also using Pure MVC layouts/widget.
Is this problem because I have upgraded from version 8.2 ?
Already checked. its correct version.
Actually there are two groups of MVC widgets in my projects. Those MVC views which are customizing a module default widget (based on DynamicContentListViewModel or ContentDetailsViewModel) are being display with no problem.
But those which I built using Thunder from scratch (creating Model/View/Controller under MVC folder) to pull some data and display got this issue.
That's write. With this explanation it makes sense. I tried and it worked.
Thank you, I was scratching my head for few days.
Velizar, I also found this blog post:
Is this an alternative approach? Is there a documentation for UrlKeyPrefix in feather or any documentation on what you just exaplained? This is kind of important, I believe.
Make Sitefinity work best for you.

911 operators suspended after fatal police shooting
CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) - Two employees at the city of Chicago's 911 call center were suspended without pay for not heeding three calls for help from a 19-year old on the day after Christmas.
That teenager, Quintonio LeGrier, was ultimately shot and killed by police.
Police were sent to LeGrier's location after the third call to check on him at his father's apartment.
The police officer who fired the fatal shot says LeGrier came at him with a bat. That officer also shot and killed a neighbor, Bettie Jones, by mistake. Two wrongful-death lawsuits have been filed against the city by the LeGrier and Jones families.
At the call center, one operator has been suspended for three days, another for one day.

Henry Grashorn
Pioneer History Is Recalled
Additional facts connected with the life of the late Henry G. Grashorn, are gleaned from a descriptive history and biographical sketch of prominent people living in Portage county, where Mr. Grashorn lived prior to his death, which are of sufficient local interest to justify reprinting incidents hitherto not generally known of the life of one of the early settlers of Sheboygan county.
Mr. Grashorn was born in this city, September 13, 1859, a son of Lewis and Pauline (Brooksen) Grashorn. His father, born in Oldenberg, Germany, in 1818, came to the United States in 1849 and located in Wisconsin, but after a short stay returned to Germany and was married, his wife, who had been born on the English Channel in 1830 being at that time a resident of Germany. They came back to America in the same year and located at Oak Creek, now a suburb of Milwaukee, but after about two years removed to Sheboygan, near which city Lewis Grashorn owned a farm. He continued to be engaged in agricultural pursuits during the remainder of his life, and died in 1871, when in his fifty-fourth year. Mrs. Grashorn survived him for many years and passed away in 1905 on the old homestead that is still owned by the family.
Henry G. Grashorn remained on the farm near this city until 16 years of age, at which time he secured employment working on a railroad section at a wage of 90 cents a day. He later engaged in various pursuits in which he was ever successful.
In politics Mr. Grashorn was a republican, and had frequently been the incumbent of public offices. He was township clerk of Carson Township for two years and served for about fifteen years as deputy and under-sheriff. Largely through his efforts Junction City was incorporated, and at that time he became a member of the board of supervisors, a position which he held continuously until 1915 at which time he retired from active business life. He was religiously inclined to be independent, but had always supported good movements for worthy causes and had contributed to movements making for morality and better citizenship. His fraternal connections were with the Order of Odd Fellows, the Modern Woodmen of America and the Beavers.
In referring to his career the biographical sketch says: "Among the residents of Portage county who are now members of the retired colony, few have engaged in such a number of enterprises as has Henry G. Grashorn. His activities have led him to invade various fields of commercial endeavor. He has been an agriculturist, and has looked after large properties of his own and of others, having been repositary of important interests, has been the founder of enterprises of a financial character, and, until his retirement in 1915, was the incumbent of responsible posts in the public service. His career has been remarkable in many ways and has been characterized all the way through by self help, as the success which is his has been gained solely through his own initiative and resources.

A Little Princess (Paperback)
Random House Books for Young Readers, 9780679850908, 112pp.
Publication Date: March 29, 1994
Sara Crewe is a student at Miss Minchin's fancy boarding school. She has the very best of everything. But when her rich father dies, she's left without a penny. Now Sara lives in the school's cold attic and works for crusts of bread. With some help from a secret friend and a touch of magic, Sara's world is about to change in ways she never dreamed. An adaptation of the classic novel that's just right for young readers
About the Author
Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924) was born and grew up in Manchester, but after her father's death she emigrated with her mother to Knoxville, Tennessee, in 1865. Five years later her mother died and - like many other women of her time - she began writing short stories for popular magazines to support her family. Her first novel, That Lass o' Lowrie's (1877), brought her instant fame on both sides of the Atlantic. She married in 1873, and in 1886 her popular children's serial Little Lord Fauntleroy was published to instant success. Mrs. Burnett wrote many other novels, for both children and adults, as well as plays and short stories, but she is best remembered for the classic children's novels The Secret Garden (1911) and A Little Princess (1905). She became an American citizen in 1905, though she travelled frequently to Europe. She died at her home on Long Island a few weeks before her seventy-fifth birthday. From the Hardcover edition.

The 2012 crop of rookie QBs may wind up being an historically productive one when they finish their careers. Russell Wilson, Robert Griffin III and Andrew Luck all led their team into the playoffs, and Ryan Tannehill offered some stability to a franchise that has been seeking an answer at the QB position for over a decade. Brandon Weeden... well, he was Brandon Weeden. Four out of five ain't bad.
For months, we've been reading that this year's crop of QBs doesn't have the same kind of potential, but one analyst isn't buying that line of thinking.

In these days we are fulfilling a dream: we are about to finish recording our new album, Anbessa Dub.
Anbessa Dub
'Anbessa Dub' is an innovative project produced by Zvuloon Dub System that links the threads of diverse lands, languages and cultures to weave a novel original sound in the world of music.
The project is the realization of the band members' ethos of "ONE WORLD, ONE LOVE, ONE MUSIC" accomplished by blending elements of Roots Reggae with scales, rhythms and languages of Ethiopian music. The word Anbessa translates to 'lion' in Ethiopian Amharic.
The Rastafarians that invented reggae saw Ethiopia as the Promised Land, and considered its Emperor Haile Selassie I to be the incarnation of God on Earth. Jamaican Rastafarians are descendants of slaves that were taken from Africa from the 17th century on. They see an analogy between the story of the Israelites and the one of the Africans that were enslaved and deported away from their motherland. The thousands of reggae songs that were written in the last 60 years are a crystallization of the intention of the Rastafarians' longing for the day of their return to their motherland Africa as a free people. Ethiopia in particular represents the grounds upon which African struggle and resistance against European colonization unfolded.
Rastafarians were therefore very deeply influenced by the idea of the Ethiopian myth and from the figure of Haile Selassie; nevertheless, their actual knowledge of Ethiopian customs, music and languages was limited in scope.
The new Zvuloon Dub System project blends roots reggae within the context of the unique vibration of Ethiopian culture. The project offers fresh versions of famous songs from the golden age of modern Ethiopian music together with original songs written by the members of the band. The project features several artists from the 'Beta Israel' community (the Jewish Ethiopian community that immigrated to Israel during the 80's and the 90's) playing the music they grew up with, in their mother tongue. The collaboration of these artists with the members of Zvuloon Dub System creates a new style of music which is neither "Ethiopian music" nor "Jamaican Roots Reggae", but rather a new sonic manifestation that crosses borders and cultural boundaries. The aural signature of the group is an elegant synthesis of the pentatonic scales typical of Ethiopian music with the characteristic drum and bass heavy sounds of reggae dub rounded out by jazzy free-form lines of the brass section filling the spaces. Electric guitars with sounds characteristic of funk and soul music are augmented by the traditional Ethiopian instruments and African drums. The lyrics of the songs talk about the longing and nostalgia for the forgotten and beloved land.
The band is about to release its second album entirely dedicated to this innovative union of Ethiopian music and Reggae. The album (which is slated to be released early in 2014) features songs in three different Ethiopian languages: Amharic, Tigrinya and Gurage.
Even before the release of the new album, the 'Anbessa Dub' project has aroused attention around the world. The album will be launched in the spring of 2014 with a release show in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia. The album features collaboration with Mahmoud Ahmed, one of the biggest living Ethiopian artists.
In the summer the band will be performing in the USA (including the Sierra Nevada World Music Festival), and at the Reggae Sumfest in Montego Bay, Jamaica (the biggest festival in Jamaica).
The lead singer of the band, Gili Yalo, was born in the Gondar region of Ethiopia in 1979. In 1984 Gili's family began an arduous journey on foot towards the land of Israel. After staying in a refugee camp in Sudan for several months, the family finally immigrated to Israel. Gili was raised in Safed and Ramla. "My mother says that during the journey from Ethiopia to Israel, while sitting on my father's shoulders, I was singing songs in Amharic. That was the time when my mother felt that I was destined to become a singer, and I haven't stopped singing ever since". In his youth, Gili sang with 'Pirkhey Yerushalaim' band, and has sang in several bands since then, mainly in English. Gili has been a member of Zvuloon Dub System since 2010. Via collaboration with the other members of the band, Gili has been exposed once again to the Amharic music he heard in his childhood in Ethiopia, bringing him full-circle to his roots, culture and mother tongue.
Zvuloon Dub System is an 8 piece band consisting of the cream of Israeli underground musicians.
Adopting their name from one of the twelve tribes of Israel, the band was formed in 2006 by the Smilan brothers.
They share the same deep passion for roots reggae and dub along with influences from a variety of music styles-- Ethiopian jazz and rare grooves from the 70's, the soul, funk and jazz from the US, as well as Israeli oriental music. In creative solidarity with some of the pivotal producers of reggae such as Lee Perry and King Tubby, the band is keen on creating not just their own music but their own sound. All their tracks are produced, recorded and mixed in the band's analog studio, representing a continuation of a rich cultural heritage. Their debut album "Freedom Time" released on April 2012 on vinyl, CD, and digital format by the band's independent label, Med.Tone Records.

A couple months ago, I was serendipitously discovering Edith Mae's Paradise, a private music venue down in Jessup and got to see a really cool local artist perform. Jacob Panic is a local Baltimore singer, songwriter, and banjo player. His sound is a unique, contemporary mashup of classic banjo and folk roots with the rowdiness and unrest of punk and grunge. As I was listening, I thought this guy is a great representation of Baltimore.
Fortunately for you, he's agreed to play for us at the WordCamp Baltimore afterparty on Saturday. I'm excited! —Anthony D Paul

Jacob Panic is a singer/song-writer/banjo-artist from Maryland. After receiving a scholarship in 2013 to study with the great Pete Wernick (aka Dr. Banjo) of the group Hot Rize, Panic returned with an earnest desire to make the banjo his main instrument and focal point of his performances, which he has been doing for years in the Mid-Atlantic region. His latest recording was produced and recorded in Nashville, TN by GRAMMY award winning producer, Randy Kohrs. It features some of the regions best pickers and players including Kenny Aronoff and members of Mountain Heart.
"This has been a blast of a record to do as every song is an adventure and doesn't sound anything like any record I've done before. Acoustic, college-rock-grass!" —Randy Kohrs

ORLANDO, FL (February 25, 2011)— 13 year old Orlando actor, Connor Christie, is set to appear as "TJ LeBlanc" alongside Catherine Bell, Kim Delaney, Brigid Brannagh and Sally Pressman, in Season 5 of Lifetime's hit series "Army Wives," which premieres next Sunday, March 6, at 9pm.
After working four years as a commercial actor and print model and appearing in the Amanda Bines film,"Sydney White and the Seven Dorks," this is the up and coming actor's first television role. Filming for Season 5 began in December and continues through April. Connor and his manager/mother have been commuting from Central Florida to Charleston, South Carolina each week to film the episodes, which begin airing next Sunday night. He is an 8th grader at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School in Orlando and manages to juggle school work and a full time acting career, with the help of an on-set tutor.
"I love the people I get to work with. Playing opposite Sally (Pressman) is amazing. This is such a tough job, but she really pushes me to be a better actor...and the catering ain't half bad either!" offered the young actor.
Army Wives follows the struggles, dreams and friendships of a diverse group of women - and one man - living with their spouses and families on an active army post. The series stars Kim Delaney, Sally Pressman, Brigid Brannagh, Brian McNamara, Sterling K. Brown, Wendy Davis, Drew Fuller,Terry Serpico, Katelyn Pippy and Catherine Bell.
The most successful series in Lifetime's 26-year history, Army Wives' fourth season averaged 3.2 million total viewers last year. Its season four finale on August 22 was the program's most watched episode of the year across all demographics.
This is Level Talent Group's second actor picked up by a television series this year. The successful Tampa talent agency was also able to ink a second season deal between the A & E network and actor Jordan Wall who plays Daniel Green on their series "The Glades".
"The most exciting aspect of this is that these Florida actors are being written into ninety percent of the scripts for the season. These are not small parts!" said Kelly Paige, owner and senior agent at LTG.

Vienna: Iran has reduced demands for the size of its future nuclear enrichment program in talks with world powers, although Western governments are urging Tehran to compromise further, Western diplomats said.
The diplomats, who spoke at the start of a two-week round of negotiations between Iran and the US, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China, said it would still be hard to clinch a deal by the self-imposed July 20 deadline.
Tehran's shift relates to the main sticking point in the talks - the number of uranium enrichment centrifuges Iran can maintain in exchange for a gradual end of sanctions.
Ending the decade-long dispute with Iran is seen as central to defusing tension and averting a new Middle East war.
"Iran has reduced the number of centrifuges it wants but the number is still unacceptably high," a Western diplomat said on condition of anonymity.
A senior US administration official said Iran's future enrichment capacity under any deal would have to be "a fraction of what they currently have".
On Wednesday, a senior Iranian official said Tehran had refused to back down from its demand to maintain 50,000 operational centrifuges, a figure Western officials say is too high for a strictly civilian nuclear energy program.
Iran, a major oil producer, says it plans a future network of nuclear power plants to diversify its energy supply.
"Iran needs at least 50,000 centrifuges and not 49,999," the Iranian official said. "The other party is talking about a few thousands and this is unacceptable for Iran."
But the Western diplomats said that behind closed doors Iran had signalled it would settle for a lower figure.
Iran has more than 9,000 centrifuges though only about 10,000 of those are running. The world powers want that number cut to the low thousands to ensure Iran cannot quickly produce enough high-enriched uranium for a bomb, should it choose to do so.
Tehran denies allegations from Western powers and their allies that it is developing a nuclear weapons capability behind the screen of a declared civilian atomic energy program.
Iranian officials declined to comment directly on the reported concession on centrifuges.
"As we said, we are ready to assure the world that we are not after the bombs," another senior Iranian official said. "We have shown our goodwill but will not yield to demands that violate our rights.
"A few thousand more or less centrifuges makes no difference."
Centrifuges are not the only stumbling block in the talks. One of the more sensitive matters is Iran's ballistic missile program, which is banned under UN Security Council sanctions imposed on Tehran between 2006 and 2010 over its refusal to suspend enrichment and other activity with bomb applications.
The US has insisted that Iran's ballistic missile capabilities be covered under the potential nuclear deal but Tehran does not want that to be on the table.
Other disputes include the duration of any nuclear deal, the timetable for ending the sanctions and the fate of a research reactor that could yield significant quantities of plutonium, an alternative fuel for nuclear weapons.

Most motorists in Athens are used to driving around a slow cyclist or two on their ride to point B. However, those in motor vehicles late Friday afternoon could not reckon with the massive group of pedaling travelers that took to the roads to raise awareness about cycling in Athens. The phenomenon is known as Critical Mass, and Athens is one of over 300 cities over the world to participate in the loosely organized ride on the last Friday of every month.
Critical Mass began in San Francisco in 1992 and has since had international support. The rides do not require membership to any kind of organization or club. They are usually a group of people who show up at a specified time and place with a bicycle. The Athens Bike Cooperative organizes the rides in Athens which begin at the soldier statue on College Green at 5 p.m. on the last Friday of each month. Eric Cornwell, head of the east side of the cooperative, was present for Friday's ride along with nearly two dozen riders. His fiancée, Katie O'Neill was perched in a sidecar Cornwell had made from recycled bicycle parts.
"This is the largest group that I've seen, which is so exciting," O'Neill said.
Riders were dressed in anything from post-work business casual attire to jerseys and spandex shorts. They included Ohio University students as well as many community members.
"I think people are doing it for different reasons and that's why there's a lot of different kinds of people," said Max, a barista at Donkey Coffee who preferred to be identified by only his first name. Max said he is participating in Critical Mass to raise awareness about bicycling, especially safety.
He and his friends have experienced dangerous situations in Athens while cycling, he said.
"I've been spit at, yelled at, bottles thrown at me. I've seen a lot less of that happening the more bikes there are," Max said.
Before the ride began, O'Neill spoke to a group of cyclists about the importance of the Critical Mass ride, referencing the passion for the first Earth Day in 1970. "That's what we're a part of!" O'Neill said. "In order to change people's minds, it takes generations."
With continued interest and the onset of spring weather, it appears as though Critical Mass will only become more "massive." Dan Crosvie, an Athens resident, heard about the ride from friends at the bike cooperative and was there for his first time.
"It's my only form of transportation. I don't have a car or anything," Crosvie said.
Cyclists hope the rides will continue to speak out against the environmental detriment brought about by using vehicles powered by fossil fuels, Max said.
"It shouldn't be radical to ride a bicycle and to not want to waste gas," he said. "That should be normal."

Quality of Life Study
The Quality of Life High Level Measures Report: 2014
The FasTracks Plan, which was adopted by the RTD Board in April 2004, includes three core goals:
- Establish a proactive plan that balances transit needs with future regional growth.
- Increase transit mode share during peak travel times.
- Provide improved transportation choices and options to the citizens of the (Regional Transportation) District.
This interest, along with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) requirements for "Before and After" studies on corridors receiving federal New Starts funding, led to the creation of the Quality of Life (QoL) Study.
The QoL Study was initiated to identify, track, and measure how the FasTracks Program is achieving the adopted goals over time. Read the 2014 report here.
Additionally, the study is intended to objectively identify and quantify FasTracks' effects on the region, rapid transit corridors, and station areas as new and expanded rapid transit service is planned, constructed, and opened for service.
This is the ninth annual report for the QoL Study and it is intended to provide a snapshot of the regional conditions directly affected by FasTracks in 2014.

Controversial Musical White Noise Begins at NYMF, Sept. 18
The provocative new musical White Noise will have its world premiere at the New York Musical Theatre Festival, beginning tonight, September 18th. It plays through September 30th.
Due to high demand, the New York Musical Theatre Festival recently added two extra shows to the show's run, which had been sold-out. Those shows are on September 19th and September 29th.
The opening comes only days after April Gaede, the white supremacist mother of Lamb and Lynx Gaede of Prussian Blue, blasted the creators of White Noise for "inaccurately portraying" her daughters.
Director Ryan J. Davis responded, "Any time the white power crazies are mad at us, I know that we're succeeding."
Author/composer Joe Drymala added, "April is welcome to come see the show for herself. It might just cause her and her daughters to finally abandon their despicable racist worldview."
White Noise, presented by the New York Musical Theater Festival and Matt Nasser, was conceived by director Ryan J. Davis and features book, music and lyrics by Joe Drymala, with additional songs by Ben Cohn and Sean McDaniel, Rick Crom (Newsical), Glen Kelly (dance arranger, The Producers, Spamalot, The Drowsy Chaperone), Benj Pasek & Justin Paul (Edges) and Eric Svejcar (Caligula). White Noise is billed as "A Cautionary Musical," and is inspired by the real-life teenage white supremacist pop/folk band Prussian Blue. White Noise is described by the authors as follows:
"An adorable pair of sisters, Blanche and Eva, lead the teen band White Noise, mixing irresistible harmonies with white power rhetoric and taking the nation by storm. Their message of racial purity resonates with young people across America and the rise of White Noise coincides with a rise in the white supremacist movement which threatens to engulf the country, as Blanche and Eva prove themselves to be masters of the most terrifying and unstoppable form of Fascism in today's culture: Top Forty pop."
The cast of White Noise includes Libby Winters, Molly Laurel, Danny Calvert, Micah Shepard, Rick Crom and Phillip Taratula. White Noise features choreography by Todd L. Underwood, musical direction and arrangements by Ben Cohn, set design by Elisha Schaefer, lighting design by Jeff Croiter, sound design by Danny Von Erdberg, and costume design by Matthew Ashman. Nina Shreiber, Lee Ann Gullie and director Ryan J. Davis are associate producers on the show.
The controversial show has been covered by "Good Morning America," "ABC Primetime," Radar Magazine, The New York Post's Page Six Magazine, AM New York, Newsday, HX Magazine, NBC 4 Los Angeles, New York radio station Z100,
California radio stations KRAB and KERN, and BBC Channel Four.
White Noise will run as part of the New York Musical Theater Festival from September 18 to September 30 at TBG Theater, located at 312 West 36th Street . For more information on performances, please visit the NYMF website at www.nymf.org.

Volvo Ocean Race- Strong winds and heavy seas punctuate tactical war
by Sail-World and Volvo Ocean Race on 9 Mar 2012

Three boats are battling for second place on Leg 4 of the Volvo Ocean Race, as they lie under 200nm to the north of New Zealand heading for the finish line in Auckland.
While they are fighting each other for the prized second place, Mother Nature is almost proving to be a formidable competitor, with winds over 40kts and six metre high waves being thrown at the exhausted and starving competitors.
Margins between the boats have compressed over the last 24 hours and Ken Read's Puma Ocean Racing clawed her way back past Iker Martínez's Team Telefónica to claim a precarious second place as Franck Cammas' Groupama sailing team maintain their more than 140 nautical mile (nm) lead.
By 0700 UTC however Chris Nicholson's Camper had also joined in the scrap, pushing further west to register as second in terms of distance to finish.
In a report from the boat this morning Telefónica Media Crew Member (MCM) Diego Fructuoso described how close the racing had become in the final stages of Leg 4:
'Right now we just saw Puma crossing in front of our bow and tacking. It's the first boat we have seen for a long time. Hopefully we will see them behind in a little while,' he wrote.
'Camper is also strongly coming back, they want to get the best possible result at home. And on top of that Abu Dhabi and Sanya didn't have to cross our (light winds) transition and got closer.
'It looks like, apart from Groupama, we are all very close and anything could happen.'
Late on Friday night (NZT), the second, third and fourth boats overall were covered by just over an hour, and the race down the coast of Northland, looked set to be a humdinger.
The projected finish time for expected leg winner, Groupama is between 8pm and midnight on Saturday night, NZT - being the range of finish times projected by the course routing and optimisation function of www.predictwind.com!Predictwind, using four independent weather feeds - each refined for local topography and other factors

Federal Prosecutors Break Laws For Convictions
- J.A.I.L. News Journal
Los Angeles, California May 6, 2003Federal Prosecutors Break Laws For Convictions(Sent by Att. Gary Zerman,Lt. Commander-In-Chief of J.A.I.L., gzerman@... )
Federal Prosecutors Break Laws for Convictions, Says 10-Part Series in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette; Chicago Tribune Finds Similar Abuses Among
State Prosecutors
January-February 1999
In November and December 1998, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette published a landmark 10-part series by veteran investigative reporter Bill Moushey on prosecutorial misconduct and corruption. The investigative report alleges that Federal agents and prosecutors across the U.S. repeatedly break the law in pursuit of convictions (Bill Moushey, "Win at all Costs: Government misconduct in the name of expedient justice," Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reprint of articles from November 22, 23, 24, 29, and December 1, 6, 7, 8 and 13, 1998).
The two-year investigation by Post-Gazette reporter Bill Moushey found numerous examples of prosecutors lying, concealing evidence, distorting the facts, engaging in cover-ups, paying for perjured testimony, and prosecuting innocent people to win guilty pleas and convictions. In addition, the paper reported that Federal officials were rarely punished for their misconduct. The misconduct caused victims to lose their jobs, their assets and even their families, according to the paper.
The U.S. Justice Department denied the allegations. "Our prosecutors live by strict, comprehensive and effective ethical rules," said spokesperson Myron Marlin.
However, the Justice Department is aggressively seeking the repeal of the Citizens Protection Act (P.L. 105-277, Section 801), passed last year in the Omnibus Spending bill, which requires Federal prosecutors to abide by the bar ethics rule in the states in which they work. The measure is scheduled to take effect in April. The Justice Department argues that the new law would deny them important prosecutorial tactics, such as using wiretaps, informants or other undercover techniques against certain types of suspects (Eric Lichtblau, "Justice Dept. Contends Law Would Handcuff Prosecutors," Los Angeles Times (National Edition), February 2, 1999, p. A3).
A similar 6-part series in the Chicago Tribune found that overzealous prosecutors across the U.S. are skirting ethical rules and subverting justice. The Tribune reviewed thousands of court records and appellate court decisions across the U.S. and found that since 1963 at least 381 defendants have had a homicide conviction dismissed because prosecutors either concealed exculpatory evidence or presented evidence that was untrue. Sixty-seven of those defendants were sentenced to die. None of the prosecutors involved were convicted of criminal charges or banned from practicing law, according to the paper (Ken Armstrong and Maurice Possley, "The verdict: Dishonor," Chicago Tribune, January 8, 1999; Ken Armstrong, "'True patriot' not quite a shining star," Chicago Tribune, January 9, 1999; Maurice Possley and Ken Armstrong, "The flip side of a fair trial," Chicago Tribune, January 11, 1999; Maurice Possley and Ken Armstrong, "Prosecution on trial in DuPage," Chicago Tribune, January 12, 1999; Ken Armstrong and Maurice Possley, "Reversal of fortune," Chicago Tribune, January 13, 1999; Ken Armstrong and Maurice Possley, "Break rules, be promoted," Chicago Tribune, January 14, 1999).
In an editorial, the Dallas Morning News wrote: "Considering the tens of thousands of cases tried nationwide since 1963, the 381 convictions may seem inconsequential. They aren't. Homicide cases account for only a fraction of all criminal cases. No one knows how many aggravated assault, rape and armed robbery trials may have been tainted by unethical conduct." (Editorial, "Wrongful convictions," Dallas Morning News, January 14, 1999).
[Considering that drug cases are the largest category of cases in the criminal justice system (there were 1.5 million drug arrest in 1996, for example) and that 400,000 prisoners are serving sentences for drug convictions, it is probable that many thousands of such cases were "tainted by unethical conduct." Certainly, the cases examined by PBS's Frontline documentary "Snitch" were so tainted. -- RCT]

Xicato, a San Jose, California company, has released the
XLM 3000 Artist Series, which is designed for applications that require perfect halogen-level color rendering and smooth, continuous dimming to 0.1% (power). Xicato notes that single-ended T4 and double-ended R7s halogen lamps have been lighting professionals' first choice for applications such as museums, retail, hospitality, houses of worship and historic spaces. However, the R7 halogen lamps have high light quality but have a short life and poor efficacy. According to Xicato, the XLM 3000 Artist combines high flux with high color rendering and is suitable for track, recessed downlight, and wall wash luminaires.
Uniquely the entire Artist Series Range boasts color rendering that is said to be accurate across all 15 CIE standard test colors, both pastel and saturated, including the deep red and skin tone references. The color rendering Ra is 90+ and 95 typical, outperforming other LED solutions, as well as compact fluorescent and compact metal halide sources. XLM Artist Series is available in 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K correlated color temperatures (CCTs).
As with all Xicato's LED modules, the XLM 3000 Artist is color consistent initially (1 x 2 SDCM) and over life and maintains its light level over time (with an L70/B50 of 50,000hrs).

Rockies get little in support of Buchholz
Rockies get little in support of Buchholz
NEW YORK -- Yorvit Torrealba searched for reasons his two big chances went awry during the Rockies' 6-1 loss to the Mets at Shea Stadium on Monday night. Each time, he thought he had a John Maine pitch lined up. But he flied to deep center field in the second inning with two men on and to second base with the bases loaded in the sixth. Then it occurred to him that his teammates had similar experiences. His conclusion was Maine (3-0) was better than he looks on videotape or from the batter's box.
"It seems like when we're hitting, we're like, 'Wow, something's wrong,'" Torrealba said. "The pitch is right there, and we just miss it. "It's kind of weird. On tape, it seems like he throws a straight fastball. But in the game, there was movement. It wasn't that much, but enough to get us." Maine, who reduced his ERA to 1.71, was the wrong pitcher for the Rockies to face at a time when they're not sure whether to tip their batting helmets to the opposing pitcher or bang their helmets against the dugout wall until they disintegrate. The Rockies have lost nine of their last 13 games. Monday marked the ninth game, all losses, that the Rockies have scored fewer than four runs. Maine held the Rockies to seven hits, the last two coming with two down in the eighth before reliever Pedro Feliciano forced a Brad Hawpe popup to end the threat. The only run came in the sixth, when Steve Finley led off with a double and Matt Holliday singled him home. Rockies manager Clint Hurdle observed that it seemed Maine's pitches were "one ball higher than we thought they were," but his team's current hitting doldrums helped Maine. The Rockies left 11 on base. Holliday, who entered the night leading the National League in hitting and raised his average to .400, went 3-for-4 and Todd Helton went 2-for-3 with a walk. But a team can't live on two hitters. It's also hard for the Rockies to subsist on seven home runs, the lowest total in the Majors. "Consistency is what we're lacking right now," Hurdle said. "The big hit would help." The Rockies didn't offer enough help for right-hander Taylor Buchholz (1-1), who held the Mets to four runs and five hits in five innings in his first start. Buchholz moved into the rotation because Rodrigo Lopez is out with an elbow strain. Buchholz's big mistake -- a hanging changeup that Jose Valentin knocked for a three-run homer in the second inning -- was enough to sink the Rockies. Moises Alou doubled in the fourth, went to third when Buchholz chose to go to first on Shawn Green's bouncer and scored on Valentin's sacrifice fly. Carlos Delgado accounted for the other two runs on a home run -- his first in 118 at-bats dating to last season -- in the seventh against Rockies reliever Bobby Keppel, a Mets first-round draft pick in 2000. Overall, Buchholz displayed a better sinking fastball than he had shown in four relief appearances. He'll start again, although that could be pushed back to May 1, the next time the club needs a fifth starter. "He did all right -- he's got work to do, but he took a nice step in the right direction," Hurdle said. Monday was better than Buchholz's last time facing the Mets. He yielded seven runs, six earned, in five innings for the Astros last July 21. "Tonight went all right," Buchholz said. "I was comfortable for the most part. I tried to overthrow a couple of times, but other than that, I felt pretty good."

Douglas Mehrens' fascination with encaustic art started some 30 years ago, when he combined crayons with a burning candle. A lifelong fascination was ignited, and Mehrens went on to form Cerrillos' Encaustic Art Institute.
Standing strong for over a decade, the institute came together with the mission of becoming "established as a national center for encaustic art by collaborating with other encaustic organizations" and to "promote expanded awareness of the encaustic medium to the public."
So, what is encaustic? It's an artform with ancient roots that produces very modern results.
Heat is employed to melt beeswax that combined with dammar resin (crystallized tree sap) produces a thick varnish, strong enough to caulk ship hulls.
Employing a true OCD approach, pigments can be added to the substance, and then, each layer is reheated to fuse with its predecessor.
On Friday, five artists—including Mehrens—"push the boundaries of encaustic art" in Eggman & Walrus' Wax-Ability.
"I had a goal to try finding a way to transform my photographic images into one-of-a-kind art," participating artist Marilyn Angel Wynn tells SFR. After toiling with several alternatives, she was most intrigued by encaustic and its "enchanting mix of imagery."
"Once encaustic wax is applied, the images become archival, thereby eliminating the need of traditional glass and frame presentation," Wynn says of the end results.
The resulting pieces, like "Diné Patterns #2" (pictured) take the traditional and infuse it with a dose of contemporary cool.
Given the medium's singular characteristics, Wynn says each artist's pieces are a world apart from the others.
"Because of their approaches and materials, these five artists are showing encaustic works that transcend the genre in exciting ways by exhibiting a fascinating selection of paintings and sculptures," she says, for lack of a better term, waxing poetic.

New 800 Megahertz system allows free-flowing communication between all emergency responders
By Rachel Kytonen
Isanti County law enforcement, firefighters and other first responders are now enjoying free-flowing communication due to the implementation of its new emergency responder radio system.
Sergeant Chris Caulk, with the Isanti County Sheriff's Department, said Isanti County went live with its new Allied Radio Matrix for Emergency Response (ARMER) system in late May, and everything continues to run smoothly.
The ARMER system is an 800 megahertz digital radio system that allows for free-flowing communication among all first responders, state patrol, Allina and other law enforcement.
"No matter where we are now in the county, we can all talk to each other," said Sgt. Caulk, who served as project manager for Isanti County. "As far as benefits to the citizens of Isanti County, this system gives us the ability to communicate during critical incidents. Also during big storms or natural disasters, we are able to communicate with all the different entities of the county."
The ARMER system works on a network of towers throughout the state. For example, if one tower would get hit by a tornado, communication is transferred through another tower.
"We now have seamless communication between all public safety agencies," Sgt. Caulk said. "Whether it's during critical incidents or major disasters, our communication will always be there."
Sgt. Caulk said the new ARMER system cost approximately $1.2 million. In September 2010, Isanti County approved contracts with Motorola for $361,404 and Granite Electronics for $158,135 for costs associated with implementing the ARMER system. The county also bonded $680,000 to help pay for the costs. Sgt. Caulk said in the end the county's portion ended up costing around $550,000, with grants offsetting around $200,000 to $250,000 of those costs.
Sgt. Caulk said he first started working on the ARMER project in April 2009. He explained the county had to switch to the ARMER system because it was being mandated by the federal government, and also because the other counties within the Metropolitan Emergency Services Board were making the switch.
Sgt. Caulk said the ARMER system allows seamless communication between the counties.
"If during a pursuit a suspect starts heading into Anoka County, we can get patched into the Anoka Sheriff's Department," Sgt. Caulk explained. "It is unbelievable how easy it is to talk to other agencies during critical situations."
Isanti County Highway Engineer Richard Heilman said the ARMER system is used for its day-to-day operations.
"The system allows direct communication between highway department, law enforcement, fire department and safety rescue as some examples," Heilman said. "One example is the storms we had this summer where trees were down and blocking roads. Our superintendent was able to directly talk to the various agencies and coordinate activities for traffic safety and tree removal in a more efficient manner than previously available."
Heilman said most of his department have noticed the benefits by switching to the ARMER system.
"Most employees have not noticed a major difference other than an improvement in sound clarity and coverage area," Heilman said. "The Highway Superintendent has found the system very useful in dealing with emergency operations that can obviously occur at any time. Having the ability to talk directly with a sheriff's deputy, on site in the middle of the night, regarding some road safety issue allows us to get a better understanding faster of exactly what the issue is and what manpower and equipment might be needed."
Cambridge Police Department Chief Dave Pajnic said the new 800 Megahertz radio system has been an important addition to the Cambridge Police Department.
"There are numerous potential uses for the system. The 800 MHz system was recently used during the wind storm that caused significant damage throughout Cambridge," Chief Pajnic said. "The radio system allowed police officers to communicate with members of other departments in a much more effective manner than would have been possible in the past. Officers have commented on how much easier it has made communicating, especially with other agencies."
Chief Pajnic said the system was extremely helpful during the severe storms that whipped through the county this summer.
"While the department has also used the system in other situations, the use following the storm is one great example of where the community benefitted from the system," Chief Pajnic said. "I believe that all the communities and agencies throughout Isanti County, such as police, fire, and public works will all be better served with this new system."
Isanti Police Chief Ron Sager said the ARMER system has made a difference in Isanti.
"We really appreciate the fact the county made the switch to the new ARMER system," Chief Sager said. "Previously we had areas in the city where we couldn't get a signal from our old radios. But we haven't had any problems since switching to the new system."
Chief Sager noted specific areas in town where law enforcement couldn't get a clear signal, particularly in the middle school.
"Since implementing the new system, our officers are noticing a huge difference in coverage," Chief Sager said. "One example I can give is I was making an arrest up in Sandstone, and I was able to communicate very clearly with the main dispatch in Isanti County. Everything has been working great."
Some of the talk groups on the radio can also be encrypted, which is a benefit when dealing with different tactical events and critical situations, Sgt. Caulk noted. He also said the radios have an emergency button on them that allows the officers to interrupt anyone speaking and talk for up to 30 seconds.
Sgt. Caulk said the portable radios can be used anywhere in the state.
"Officers from up here who worked down at the State Fair could bring their radios with them and be able to maintain communication with Isanti County," Sgt. Caulk said. "The radios can be used anywhere in the state, without having them needing to be reprogrammed."
Sgt. Caulk said overall the citizens, as well as first responders, are now safer as a result of the new system.
"The ARMER system is an amazing tool," Sgt. Caulk said. "We have clear communication with all the different entities in the county, as well as with any government agency in the state. The new system has definitely made our jobs easier."
The Isanti County Board's approval was also necessary for the project.
"I would like to thank the county commissioners for moving with this project when they did back in 2009," Sgt. Caulk said. "If we would have waited on implementing this, it would have cost a lot more in the end. By doing this now, we are ahead of the 2012 deadline that had been looming to get this done."
Sgt. Caulk said he enjoyed being project manager for the ARMER system.
"I appreciate the fact I was allowed to oversee the project," Sgt. Caulk said. "It was an approximate $1.2 million dollar project, and it was a successful project."
