A sequel to last summer's "Post-war Bohemians in Northern Nevada," the exhibit by the university libraries' Special Collections Department highlights the next generation of leading-edge visual artists who flourished in and around the university's art community during a time of experimentation and diversity in cultural expression.
"Far Out" features a wide selection of two- and three-dimensional works and related materials, such as photographs, exhibit catalogs and posters, celebrating the accomplishments of the university art community. It has been co-curated by well-known local artists Jim McCormick, emeritus professor of art at the university, and Walter McNamara, retired director of the Sheppard Fine Art Gallery. Works by McCormick and McNamara are also featured in the exhibit. They recall the area's art community in the '60s and '70s as a lively, tight-knit group.
The works of about three dozen artists are featured in the exhibit, and a free, 70-page booklet that includes profiles and art from the artists will be available. Sunday's reception and open house will feature meet-and-greet opportunities with some of the artists, guided tours and refreshments, along with live music from Sopwith Camel. The band is best known for being the second San Francisco band to be signed by a major record company — right after Jefferson Airplane and before The Grateful Dead — and the first to have a Top-40 hit. Band member Peter Kraemer has close ties to the northern Nevada art scene, having been raised and influenced by his mother, artist Zoray Andrus, in Virginia City.
The exhibit is sponsored and supported by the Special Collections Department of University Libraries, with additional funding provided by Nevada Humanities. It is part of Reno's Artown celebration of the arts.

Petrified Forest
Great Redwood trees turned to stone attract thousands of visitors every year to this private park in the hills of eastern Sonoma County. Rich in history from the late 1800s, the Petrified Forest is a perfect example of explosive volcanic activity. Redwood trees up to 8 feet in diameter and hundreds of feet high were blown down like match sticks in the flow of a wave of ash from a major volcano to the north and east. They were subsequently deeply buried by ash and preserved by replacement of organic material by fine-grained silicon and oxygen (chalcedony).
Old Faithful Geyser of California
The Old Faithful Geyser of California is one of three geysers in the world with the designation "old faithful." These are the geysers that perform at regular intervals. A geyser exists only where conditions are right. These conditions include a natural deep subterranean supply of water, a source of heat and a series of fissures, fractures and cavities that provide a path to the surface of the earth. Surrounding rock formations must be strong enough to maintain continual onslaughts of the intense pressure of steam and water explosions.
Charles M. Schulz Museum
While Charles Schulz was engaged in the everyday-ness of creating his comic strip - others were plotting the future. "There must be a Schulz Museum," the conspirators agreed, but how to do it when the subject himself, in his modesty, sidestepped the issue. The "conspirators" were cartoon historian, Mark Cohen, the cartoonist's wife, Jeannie, and Schulz's longtime friend and attorney, Edwin Anderson. They were driven by the desire to show how Mr. Schulz's work inspired, healed and taught us all what it means to be part of the human family.

Vision Cellars
Born the son of a Texas moonshine maker, Mac McDonalds' journey to winemaker/winery owner has been unconventional to say the least. Considering that he is one of only seven African-American vintners in a state with 900 wineries truly makes Mac & Vision Cellars unique. To think that his life altering pursuit of wine, specifically Pinot Noir, came at the tender age of 12 when he was given his first taste of a 1952 Burgundy is even more astounding. Mac has been pursuing his passion ever since.

San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park
After years of cold weather at Candlestick Park, Giants fans can enjoy warm days at Pac Bell Park. It's hard to say what's best about Pac Bell Park, except that it is San Francisco. The view from the worst seats in the house still gives you a view of the Bay Bridge and the marina.

Skirt of the Black Mouth
- 28 September 2012 — 30 September 2015 *on now
Created by artists Heather and Ivan Morison, Skirt of the Black Mouth is a place for everyone within the south landscape of the Tate Modern Project.
The artists often make works for public spaces that disrupt the rigid grid of the modern world. They use simple folds and cuts to transform monolithic forms, materials and ideas, producing a more unexpected, more beautiful geometry. The resulting structures are intended to agitate and provoke the viewer, but the artists also want people to find hope through this confrontation.

- Any age

Richard Hamilton
- 13 February — 26 May 2014 *on now
Tate Modern presents the first retrospective to encompass the full scope of Richard Hamilton's (1922-2011) work, from his early exhibition designs of the 1950s to his final paintings of 2011. This exhibition explores his relationship to design, painting, photography and television, as well as his engagement and collaborations with other artists.
Hamilton is best known for his pivotal role in the birth of pop art, including the groundbreaking installation Fun House 1956. A centrepiece of the exhibition, this immersive room combines images from movie-posters, magazines and art history, and will be shown alongside a print of the era-defining Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing?.

Henri Matisse: The Cut Outs
- 17 April — 7 September 2014 *on now
Bringing together around 120 works, many seen together for the first time, the exhibition celebrates the period in which Matisse began 'cutting into colour' and his series of spectacular cut-outs was born.
Henri Matisse is a leading figure of modern art and one of the most significant colourists of all time. In a career spanning over half a century, Matisse made a large body of work of which the cut-outs are a brilliant final chapter.
The drama, scale and innovation of these works, made between 1936 and 1954, remain without precedent or parallel. Matisse's first cut-outs were collected together in Jazz 1947, a book of 20 plates. Copies of the book, featuring a text hand-written by Matisse, are shown alongside the original cut-outs.
London is first to host this landmark show, before it travels to New York at the Museum of Modern Art.

- 19 November 2014 — 6 April 2015

The BT Series has been developed with BT's creative design and filmmaking team. As exclusive sponsor of Tate Online, BT provides Tate with technological support, online broadcasting and hosting, and develops innovative projects like this.
Online Courses
Tate's new online course on Artists' Techniques and Methods is the first of a new selection of online courses to be launched over the next two years.
Online Study Days
The study days often relate closely to major exhibitions at Tate Modern or to key aspects of the curriculums taught at The Open University. Each study day is broken into a series of short presentations, which are supported with summary information and suggested further reading. The content will have most value for those with some existing knowledge in histories and theories of modern art.

"As mothers, we are building great cathedrals. We cannot be seen if we're doing it right. And one day, it is very possible that the world will marvel, not only at what we have built, but at the beauty that has been added to the world by the sacrifices of invisible women."

"A mother is the most important person on earth. She cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not. She has built something more magnificent than any Cathedral -- a dwelling for an immortal soul, the tiny perfection of her baby's body."

4.31/5 rDev -0.9%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.25
First had: on tap at TH
Dark brown pour with a moderately-sized off-white head that retained well and left spots of lacing on the glass. Aroma...well there's no better way to say it: smelled like Christmas. Lots of fresh cut pine, honey, fruitcake, Santa's faeces. As expected of the style, the taste was mostly dominated by pine, with some citrus oils and tropical fruit in there as well, but the hops were very smooth and mellow, yet pleasantly dank, with the dark roasty malts staying subdued, and the honey taking the edge off any bitterness that might have present, providing a great sense of balance overall. Body was medium, mouthfeel was smooth, and the 9%ABV was impossibly absent. Surprisingly good. Very nice beer overall.
Shared a bottle at Stone Soup a month later, and it was holding up great. The pine had mellowed a bit, and the citrus came out more, with the honey sweetness, being a bit more pronounced and noticeable.
Serving type: on-tap

4.5/5 rDev +3.4%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Shared this with JLindros. Bottle number 35/35.
A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip and am almost grayish brown when pouring though one in the glass it resumes a normal brown/black with a one finger light mocha head that had nice legs. Quite nice.
S - Aromas of super light chocolate, nice pine needles, nice citrus (grapefruit and tangerine) , nice faint honey sweetness. A lot less "black" aromas than I'm used to in a black ipa. Alcohol is hidden very nicely for a 9% ABV.
T - Taste is more of those bright pine needles and grapefruit. The roast is faint as is the chocolate. The honey is in the background offering a nice sweet backbone but never cloy almost earthy. Really like the subtlety here with nice very good quality honey on the finish that just lingers more and more. Really nice.
M - Mouthfeel is very nice, super drinkable with the ABV hidden excellently. Creamy and smooth.
O - Overall while I feel this was not the typical black ipa, as most are really roasty, this though is nice and hoppy with really nice honey sweetness. The ABV is hidden so well. Awesome beer.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
huge thanks to rudzud for this once in a life time rarity.
Bottle 35 of 35
Pours a nice fizzy bubbly dark head that barely covers it, decent lacing, nice legs too, just about pitch black color. Good swirl brings a nice creamy head, nice smooth rich looking pour.
Nose brings big pine and little orange peel citrus, mild mocha, cocoa, coffee, little dark caramel, very light chocolate, quite a bit of pine, and hint of honey in the background, and very light fluffy chocolate nougat.
Taste brings more pine and citrus, nice piney little tree sap, little resin, etc. Some dark malts, creamy mocha, hint toasty coffee, hint choc, etc. Honey starts light then really ramps on the finish, big fresh heavy raw honey, even little honey comb mostly late the finish. Also little lingering caramel cocoa and creamy mocha, mild on the dark malts, more pine and citrus, pine sap, and a big honey on the late finish. The finish is like chewing on honey comb wax.
Mouth is med to heavier bod but soft and creamy, nice carb.
Overall amazing, so subtle and well finessed, nice ipa with pine and citrus, light on the cocoa mocha and caramel which is nice, the honey is phenomenal too.

This is utterly pathetic:
To be a liberal is to have no shame.Reid aide Jose Parra first made the claims in an interview on Los Angeles' KTLK radio, defending his boss' decision to trumpet the tax charge last week on the Senate floor and explaining a bit about the source.
"This person is an investor in Bain Capital, a Republican also, and somebody ... who has been dealing with Romney's company for a long, long time and he has direct knowledge on this," Parra said.
Parra's statement comes after Romney, in an interview with Fox News, challenged Reid to identify his source.
However, after some media attention on Parra's radio interview, Parra issued a statement taking those remarks back.
"I do not know the party affiliation of the source, how long he invested with Bain, or his relationship to Romney beyond the fact that he was an investor with Bain Capital, as Senator Reid has previously stated," he said.
Asked Friday about the mix-up, a Reid aide told FoxNews.com the senator "does not have any plans to reveal further information about the identity of his source."

Study Abroad
La Trobe University Melbourne
La Trobe University is named after Charles Joseph La Trobe, who did more than any other person to shape the State of Victoria. He supervised the establishments of self-government, the public library, art gallery and a university, and development of the goldfields. La Trobe is new enough to have modern, comfortable facilities and has been established long enough to have a long-standing international reputation for excellence in teaching and research. There are many sporting clubs through the Sports and Recreation Association including Australian Rules Football, Dance and Hang Gliding. There is also a wide range of non-sporting clubs and societies catering to other student interests. The Student Union, through its Activities Office, has responsibility for entertainment on campus, which includes live music and comedy.
Bundoora, La Trobe's main campus in metropolitan Melbourne, was founded in 1964 and has approximately 22,000 students including 1,600 international students. The student population represents many different cultural and ethnic groups, a wide range of ages and many different social and professional backgrounds. This diversity provides an exciting background for students who wish to experience the Australian way of life. The campus has a parkland setting, one of the biggest and most attractive in Australia, home to many species of native birds and animals. The campus is easily reached by public transportation from central Melbourne - 45-60 minutes by bus or tram.
Bendigo, a regional campus, located two hours from Melbourne offers a relaxed, regional lifestyle in a smaller setting where emphasis is placed on the individual. A wide range of courses is available in the arts, business, education, health sciences, science, and technology.
With a population of 4,500 students, Bendigo campus offers the opportunity to study in conditions, where, because of smaller numbers, international students receive lots of personal attention. The campus is located in a picturesque setting and is well serviced by public transportation. It has a bookshop, food outlet, and there is a large modern shopping complex within 5 minutes walk of the campus.
The State of Victoria is located in the southeast of Australia. Victoria offers magnificent coastlines, agricultural land, and rugged beauty of arid, semi-desert areas. Melbourne has been called one of the world's most livable cities.
A city of contrasts, it is the cultural and corporate capital of Australia, famed for its safe and healthy environment. Melbourne is known for its multiculturalism, home to a population originating from 135 different countries, featuring cuisine from around the world affordable on a student budget.
Bell's Beach, home of the World Surfing Championships, is less than two hours away from Melbourne. The Great Ocean Road, the world's most inspiring coastal road, features the contrasts of the country's truly unique wildlife ranging from the beautiful Otway rainforests to the breathtaking windswept drama of the Shipwreck Coast. Victoria also features 32 national parks to explore and enjoy.
The City of Bendigo has a long and colorful history, beginning with the discovery of gold in the mid 1800's. It is situated 90 minutes northwest of Melbourne Airport. With a population of 85,000, Bendigo offers an easy lifestyle in beautiful surroundings. In addition to big shopping centers, galleries, theatres, restaurants, cafés, sporting facilities - all the benefits of a big city - Bendigo provides a perfect base from which to visit Victoria's snowfields, wineries, lake and rivers, and gold mines. Many students enjoy hiking, rock-climbing, and get involved in countless outdoor activities.
The Australian academic year follows the Southern Hemisphere calendar starting in late-February and ending in mid-November. At La Trobe, as with all Australian universities, there is considerable emphasis on independent learning. You will be expected to participate in class discussions, expressing your own ideas and opinions. Self-motivation is a must because you will be expected to read widely, conduct individual research, and self-discover beyond the material presented in class.
Each course, called a "subject," is designated with a number indicating the year-level at which they are offered with the normal degree program, e.g. Ancient Greek 1HHH is a first year subject (100 level) while Art History 2FR/3FR indicates the subject can be taken as either a second or third-year subject. Second and third-level subjects are equivalent to upper-level (300/400) classes at UW-L. The normal load for a semester is 40-60 credit points: 15 credit points is equivalent to 4 UW-L credits; 20 credit points is equivalent to 5 UW-L credits. The semester when the class is offered is designated "1" starting in February, "2" starting in July, "1/2" either semester, or "Y" year long starting in February.
La Trobe University offers a variety of classes in the arts, social sciences, business, education, the sciences, and health sciences. Below is just a sample of some available programs:
- Aboriginal Studies
- Australian Studies
- Biology
- Business, Law and Management
- Environmental Studies
- Health Sciences
- Media and Cinema Studies
- Tourism and Hospitality

The course equivalencies spreadsheets have been compiled from past approved Academic Plan forms. They show when the course was last approved and how it transferred back to La Crosse. You may notice that some classes satisfied several UWL options.
This list is not comprehensive nor does it take the place of meeting with your advisor for final approval! They are meant to be a guide of what courses may be appropriate for your studies abroad.
In Australia the term "College" is used to describe a residential facility located on a university campus, which offers both accommodation and student services. With a philosophy of more than just a place to live, the Colleges offer a unique experience of Australian way of life.
There are three Colleges on the Bundoora campus: Menzies, Chisholm, and Glenn. They provide single, furnished study bedrooms; shared kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities; and recreational and study areas. The dormitories are all located within a five-minute walk to the campus center. You will live in either Menzies (self-catering) or Chisholm (kitchen facilities and some evening meals available) dormitories. The kitchen facilities located in Chisholm make personal meal preparation convenient for students. Please note: Housing shortages in the future may require alternative housing arrangements at the discretion of La Trobe University's International Programs Office.
information on the colleges can be found at:
The Bendigo campus provides some of the best accommodation facilities to be found on any campus in Australia. All on-campus accommodation is located within walking-distance of the academic buildings. The Units are nine buildings, each accommodating 12 people in single, well-furnished study-bedrooms. Each unit has a large, semi-equipped kitchen, two bathroom areas and a mezzanine lounge area. The Terraces consist of 21 large houses each accommodating eight or ten people in single, well-furnished study-bedrooms. There are twin bathrooms and laundry areas, along with well-appointed kitchen and lounge areas.
Before you travel abroad, you will need to obtain a passport, which will serve as proof of your U.S. citizenship. A passport may allow you to gain entry to (and exit from) other countries. Depending on the country to which you're traveling, a visa may be required as well. Entry requirements vary from one country to another. The U.S. State Department issues travel warnings specific to certain countries, and offers tips and publications relevant to travel abroad generally. Well in advance of your departure, you should also familiarize yourself with international travel health issues, and health recommendations specific to your destination.

Happy birthday today (Saturday) to an Olympic champion who was born 103 years ago today. Our birthday athlete competed in two Olympic Games and won the gold medal in the second of those two Games.
This person won the first Olympic gold medal in track and field for the nation this athlete represented. Our birthday Olympian won the gold medal on Cordner Nelson's 18th birthday.
At Fairlie School, our birthday individual played rugby and was a swimmer. At Timaru Boys' High School, this athlete was a boxer.
The father of our birthday star died when this athlete was only 13 years old. At the University of Otago, this athlete became a very good track and field star.
As a Rhodes Scholar, our birthday person studied medicine. This athlete had knee problems and was later thrown from a horse and remained unconscious for about two days.
Finishing in seventh place at this athlete's first Olympic Games, our birthday person broke the world record in the next Olympic Games and won the Olympic gold medal.
Death came to this champion on the 93rd anniversary of President Woodrow Wilson's birth. Our Olympian had two daughters, one of which is still alive today and lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Born in Crushington, this champion was a Major during World War II. Our birthday person married in the same year that World War II ended.
Eight days before our person's 40th birthday, an accident ended the life of this Olympic champion. There is still some questions about this accident.
Hurdles have nothing to do with this gold medalist and you can forget the field events for today's athlete. It's not a difficult one to figure, so go ahead, don't waste time, and give the correct answer.

Jan Vertonghen
- Squad No: 5
- Position: Defender
- Age: 26
- Birth Date: Apr 24, 1987
- Birth Place: Sint-Niklaas, Belgium
- Height: 1.89m
- Weight: 86 kg
Last Game
Liverpool 4 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur
Barclays Premier League
March 30, 2014
2013/14 English Premier League
An accomplished left-footed centre-back who can also play in defensive midfield or at left-back, Vertonghen is a highly adaptable and multi-talented player who joined Tottenham in the summer of 2012.
He began his career with Beerschot in his native Belgium before being snapped up by Ajax for their youth academy in 2003. Henk Ten Cate brought him into the first-team in the 2006-07 season but loaned him out to RKC Waalwijk in the second half of the season. It was a decision Ajax would come to regret: Vertonghen scored against his parent club in a 2-2 draw, and Ajax lost the title on goal difference.
Vertonghen began to establish himself in the Ajax first-team the following season, playing alongside Johnny Heitinga while Thomas Vermaelen was absent through injury. From then on he went from strength to strength, cementing his place in the team, earning his first call-up for the Belgian national team in May 2007 against Portugal, and finally awarded the captain's armband for his club in the summer of 2011.
Vertonghen has regular drawn comparisons with Vermaelen, with whom he played at Ajax, and he decided to move to Spurs to join Andre Villas-Boas ahead of the 2012-13 season.
Strengths: Technically adept, intelligent, adaptable and good in the air, with a powerful shot.
Weaknesses: As an attack-minded defender, he can leave gaps at the back.
Career high: Finally winning the Eredivisie in 2010-11 as Ajax ended their seven-year title drought.
Career low: The 2006-07 season ended up with Ajax missing out on the title on goal difference and loan club RKC Waalwijk being relegated.
Style: Classy, versatile, strong, a defender with an excellent ability to read the game.
Quotes: "He is perhaps the best player in the league at the moment. With his power, passing, positional sense, pace and ability to score goals, there's no one better." Ajax boss Frank de Boer, August 2011
Trivia: At the end of 2011, Jan Vertonghen was voted second in Voetbal International's poll to find 'De grootste etterbak' ('the biggest arsehole'), presumably because of the enmity towards Ajax in the Netherlands.

Tarragon-Lemon Aioli Served with Grilled Artichokes
Author Notes: Freddy and I have just spent a wonderful week touring the countryside of Sicily. The artichoke which is usually identified with California is actually frm Sicily. This is my effort at making a grilled artichoke with a delicious aioli to dip those wonderful, California, in season artichokes into. I am using large globe artichokes for this recipe. If you are lucky you will find artichokes with a couple inches of the stalk attached...this makes a fomidible presentation. - dymnyno - dymnyno
Food52 Review: These smoky, bewitching artichoke cross-sections are an ideal kickoff to any warm weather al fresco supper. Boiling then grilling both speeds up the cooking time and renders much more of the leaf tender enough to eat with knife and fork than mere steaming -- and you'll want to eat as much as you can, if only as an excuse to keep dipping into dymnyno's rich, feisty aioli. - kristen miglore - Kristen Miglore
Serves 4
- 4 large globe artichokes
- 1 lemon quartered
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- salt and pepper
- Trim the artichokes: remove all the tough outer leaves and then with a very sharp knife, cut off the top of the choke (about an inch) to cut off the sharp tips. If you are lucky enough to have a artichoke with stalk, peel the stalk with a vegetable peeler.
- Then, cut the choke in half , lengthwise. Then with a spoon scoop out the hairy choke, but be carefull not to remove the heart. Put the chokes in a bowl with some lemon juice so they do not turn brown.
- In a pot of water, squeeze half of the lemon. Add the chokes and simmer for about 15 minutes until the chokes are tender. Or, if you prefer, you can steam the chokes.
- Remove and drain.
- Brush the oil and garlic (which you have mixed) on the artichokes and then place them on the hot grill.
- Continue to brush the chokes with the garlic-oil mix and keep turning them so that they do not burn. After a few minutes remove them from the grill. Sprinkle with a little sea salt.
- 6 garlic cloves, peeled
- 2 fresh egg yolks(room temp)
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves only, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.
- In a mortar, put the tarragon leaves, garlic cloves and salt. (before you use the mortor, fill it with hot water, then pour out water and dry the inside)
- Begin pounding with the pestle until the ingredients start to form an emulsion. This will take several minutes.
- Add the egg yolks and continue to mix with the pestle.
- When the egg yolks are incorparated , SLOWLY start to add the olive oil, a few drops at a time and this will become a beautiful greem emulsion.
- When all the olive oil has been added and you have a beautiful mayonnaise, add the lemon juice and incorporate it into the emulsion.
- Let it refrigerate and rest for a while.
- This is the dipping sauce for the artichokes. It should be made ahead of time. Also good on a lot of other vegetables (like grilled fennel).

I tried grilling some artichokes last night, following your recipe. I had never had grilled artichokes before and I liked the grilled flavor. When I took them out of the pot after simmering them though, they seemed kind of waterlogged. When I grilled them, a lot of the moisture did evaporate out, but not quite as much as I would have liked. I think next time I will steam the artichokes rather than simmering them. Haven't tried the aioli yet, but it looks lovely.
almost 4 years ago coffeefoodwritergirl
This looks yummy! I make a grilled artichoke which is sort of similar -- but I just throw all the ingredients (half a lemon, bulb of garlic cut in half, couple of swirls of olive oil) in the water when boiling. I love your idea of brushing continuously with the olive oil/garlic mixture -- it must be absolutely delicious. I'm looking forward to trying this! (The aioli looks great too!)

ALFRED - With jury selection set to continue behind closed doors Thursday in the trial of a key defendant in the Kennebunk prostitution case, the Portland Press Herald continued its legal fight to make the proceedings public.
Justice Nancy Mills responds Wednesday to the Press Herald's objection to her decision closing the prostitution case jury selection process to the public and media.

Justice Nancy Mills ruled Wednesday, at the start of the second day of jury selection, that potential jurors in the trial of Mark Strong Sr. would continue to be interviewed in a back room off the courtroom in York County Superior Court, out of public view.
The Press Herald had filed an objection Tuesday to the secret jury selection process.
Strong, 57, of Thomaston, is accused of conspiring with Alexis Wright to run a one-woman prostitution business from her Zumba studio in Kennebunk. She allegedly kept meticulous records of about 150 customers, including some well-known figures.
Mills said in issuing her ruling that the media attention in the case has been "unprecedented."
For two full days, the judge has held private sessions with prospective jurors, Strong, his attorneys, prosecutors and perhaps others. The press and the public have been barred from the proceedings, called voir dire.
On Wednesday morning, the judge spoke in open court on her decision to keep the jury selection behind closed doors.
"The voir dire will continue to be not open to the media and not open to the public," Mills said around 9:15 a.m.
"This case has been defined from the very beginning by the interests the media has shown," she said. "As concerned as I am about the public, the media and the jurors, my paramount concern in this case is that the state receives a fair trial and that Mr. Strong receives a fair trial in this case, and part of receiving a fair trial is that both parties are able to select a fair and impartial jury."
Mills said that the 145 potential jurors had been told their questioning would be confidential, and that questioning them in the presence of the media might influence their openness.
"I am concerned that the candor would be reduced and that the answers to the questions I asked and that the attorneys have requested to ask and been allowed to ask would be different," Mills said.
Immediately after Mills ruled, the Press Herald appealed in York County Superior Court and sought an opinion from the Maine Supreme Judicial Court.
By the end of Wednesday, Chief Justice Leigh Saufley had not issued an opinion.
Wednesday evening, Mills rejected the appeal, which was filed for the Press Herald by attorney Sigmund Schutz, seeking to halt the closed-door jury selection process.
"The intervention now sought 'will unduly delay' and potentially prejudice the rights of the original parties," Mills wrote in rejecting the appeal. "The court is mindful of the need for open proceedings where such proceedings will not prejudice the state and the defendant."
Strong has pleaded not guilty to 59 misdemeanors, including promotion of prostitution, violation of privacy and conspiracy to commit those misdemeanors.
Wright, 30, of Wells, is scheduled to stand trial in May on 106 counts. She has pleaded not guilty to all charges, including promotion of prostitution, engaging in prostitution, invasion of privacy, conspiracy, tax offenses and receiving welfare benefits when ineligible.
According to a judicial marshal who said she spoke with the judge but was not present for voir dire, the jury selection for Strong's trial is set to conclude Thursday morning, with opening arguments tentatively planned for the afternoon.

Dear All,
I have been searching in vain for a figure which I think was released by PlayAlong Toys in 1999/2000 as part of the 'Enter The Dragon' series.
The figure in question is a Jim Kelly as Williams 7" Figure, part of the original set of Bruce Lee, John Saxon as Roper, Shih Kien as Han, Bolo Yeung as Bolo.
Here is a link to the only picture I have of this figure.
If you have one, or could help me locate one, I would be eternally grateful if you could contact me via this thread, PM or email: firstname.lastname@example.com (Also if you think I have the information wrong and it was a different manufacturer, please let me know.)
Kindest Regards,

I tried to install iDeneb 10.5.6 on my EEE 1000H with to tutorial from eNik. I didn't flash my BIOS befor installation, because it didn't work. (The BIOS was too old)
The installation was sucessfully, but if I want to boot Mac OS X there is only a grey Apple logo - for hours.
So how can I boot Mac OS X? I tried to downgrade the BIOS in DOS, too, but however Afudos didn't work at all (I tried several versions e.g. 2.19, 2.37ES) There was an error like this: "The BIOS is too old, maybe it isn't compatible with the MB. Get the newest BIOS on www.asus.com.tw"
Or is it necessary to install an other version of iDeneb?
My current BIOS: 2204
Thank you for Help!
